Amos 2:6--6:14

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
For three
<07969>
transgressions
<06588>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and for four
<0702>_,
I will not turn away
<07725> (8686)
[the punishment] thereof; because they sold
<04376> (8800)
the righteous
<06662>
for silver
<03701>_,
and the poor
<034>
for a pair of shoes
<05275>_;
That pant
<07602> (8802)
after the dust
<06083>
of the earth
<0776>
on the head
<07218>
of the poor
<01800>_,
and turn aside
<05186> (8686)
the way
<01870>
of the meek
<06035>_:
and a man
<0376>
and his father
<01>
will go
<03212> (8799)
in unto the [same] maid
<05291>_,
to profane
<02490> (8763)
my holy
<06944>
name
<08034>_:
{maid: or, young woman}
And they lay [themselves] down
<05186> (8686)
upon clothes
<0899>
laid to pledge
<02254> (8803)
by
<0681>
every altar
<04196>_,
and they drink
<08354> (8799)
the wine
<03196>
of the condemned
<06064> (8803)
[in] the house
<01004>
of their god
<0430>_.
{the condemned: or, such as have fined, or, mulcted}
Yet destroyed
<08045> (8689)
I the Amorite
<0567>
before
<06440>
them, whose height
<01363>
[was] like the height
<01363>
of the cedars
<0730>_,
and he [was] strong
<02634>
as the oaks
<0437>_;
yet I destroyed
<08045> (8686)
his fruit
<06529>
from above
<04605>_,
and his roots
<08328>
from beneath.
Also I brought you up
<05927> (8689)
from the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and led
<03212> (8686)
you forty
<0705>
years
<08141>
through the wilderness
<04057>_,
to possess
<03423> (8800)
the land
<0776>
of the Amorite
<0567>_.
And I raised up
<06965> (8686)
of your sons
<01121>
for prophets
<05030>_,
and of your young men
<0970>
for Nazarites
<05139>_.
[Is it] not even thus, O ye children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
But ye gave the Nazarites
<05139>
wine
<03196>
to drink
<08248> (8686)_;
and commanded
<06680> (8765)
the prophets
<05030>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Prophesy
<05012> (8735)
not.
Behold, I am pressed
<05781> (8688)
under you, as a cart
<05699>
is pressed
<05781> (8686)
[that is] full
<04392>
of sheaves
<05995>_.
{I am...: or, I will press your place, as a cart full of sheaves presseth}
Therefore the flight
<04498>
shall perish
<06> (8804)
from the swift
<07031>_,
and the strong
<02389>
shall not strengthen
<0553> (8762)
his force
<03581>_,
neither shall the mighty
<01368>
deliver
<04422> (8762)
himself
<05315>_:
{himself: Heb. his soul, or, life}
Neither shall he stand
<05975> (8799)
that handleth
<08610> (8802)
the bow
<07198>_;
and [he that is] swift
<07031>
of foot
<07272>
shall not deliver
<04422> (8762)
[himself]: neither shall he that rideth
<07392> (8802)
the horse
<05483>
deliver
<04422> (8762)
himself
<05315>_.
And [he that is] courageous
<0533> <03820>
among the mighty
<01368>
shall flee away
<05127> (8799)
naked
<06174>
in that day
<03117>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{courageous: Heb. strong of his heart}
Hear
<08085> (8798)
this word
<01697>
that the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
against you, O children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
against the whole family
<04940>
which I brought up
<05927> (8689)
from the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
You only have I known
<03045> (8804)
of all the families
<04940>
of the earth
<0127>_:
therefore I will punish
<06485> (8799)
you for all your iniquities
<05771>_.
{punish: Heb. visit upon}
Can two
<08147>
walk
<03212> (8799)
together
<03162>_,
except
<01115>
they be agreed
<03259> (8738)_?
Will a lion
<0738>
roar
<07580> (8799)
in the forest
<03293>_,
when he hath no prey
<02964>_?
will a young lion
<03715>
cry out
<05414> (8799) <06963>
of his den
<04585>_,
if he have taken
<03920> (8804)
nothing
<01115>_?
{cry: Heb. give forth his voice}
Can a bird
<06833>
fall
<05307> (8799)
in a snare
<06341>
upon the earth
<0776>_,
where no gin
<04170>
[is] for him? shall [one] take up
<05927> (8799)
a snare
<06341>
from the earth
<0127>_,
and have taken
<03920> (8799)
nothing at all
<03920> (8800)_?
Shall a trumpet
<07782>
be blown
<08628> (8735)
in the city
<05892>_,
and the people
<05971>
not be afraid
<02729> (8799)_?
shall there be evil
<07451>
in a city
<05892>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
hath not done
<06213> (8804)
[it]? {be afraid: or, run together?} {the LORD...: or, shall not the LORD do somewhat?}
Surely the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
will do
<06213> (8799)
nothing
<01697>_,
but he revealeth
<01540> (8804)
his secret
<05475>
unto his servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_.
The lion
<0738>
hath roared
<07580> (8804)_,
who will not
<03808>
fear
<03372> (8799)_?
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_,
who can but prophesy
<05012> (8735)_?
Publish
<08085> (8685)
in the palaces
<0759>
at Ashdod
<0795>_,
and in the palaces
<0759>
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and say
<0559> (8798)_,
Assemble
<0622> (8734)
yourselves upon the mountains
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
and behold
<07200> (8798)
the great
<07227>
tumults
<04103>
in the midst
<07130>
thereof, and the oppressed
<06217>
in the midst
<08432>
thereof. {oppressed: or, oppressions}
For they know
<03045> (8804)
not to do
<06213> (8800)
right
<05229>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
who store
<0686> (8802)
up violence
<02555>
and robbery
<07701>
in their palaces
<0759>_.
{robbery: or, spoil}
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
An adversary
<06862>
[there shall be] even round about
<05439>
the land
<0776>_;
and he shall bring down
<03381> (8689)
thy strength
<05797>
from thee, and thy palaces
<0759>
shall be spoiled
<0962> (8738)_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
As the shepherd
<07462> (8802)
taketh out
<05337> (8686)
of the mouth
<06310>
of the lion
<0738>
two
<08147>
legs
<03767>_,
or a piece
<0915>
of an ear
<0241>_;
so shall the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
be taken out
<05337> (8735)
that dwell
<03427> (8802)
in Samaria
<08111>
in the corner
<06285>
of a bed
<04296>_,
and in Damascus
<01833>
[in] a couch
<06210>_.
{taketh: Heb. delivereth} {in Damascus...: or, on the bed's feet}
Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye, and testify
<05749> (8685)
in the house
<01004>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
That in the day
<03117>
that I shall visit
<06485> (8800)
the transgressions
<06588>
of Israel
<03478>
upon him I will also visit
<06485> (8804)
the altars
<04196>
of Bethel
<01008>_:
and the horns
<07161>
of the altar
<04196>
shall be cut off
<01438> (8738)_,
and fall
<05307> (8804)
to the ground
<0776>_.
{visit: or, punish Israel for}
And I will smite
<05221> (8689)
the winter
<02779>
house
<01004>
with the summer
<07019>
house
<01004>_;
and the houses
<01004>
of ivory
<08127>
shall perish
<06> (8804)_,
and the great
<07227>
houses
<01004>
shall have an end
<05486> (8804)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)
this word
<01697>_,
ye kine
<06510>
of Bashan
<01316>_,
that [are] in the mountain
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
which oppress
<06231> (8802)
the poor
<01800>_,
which crush
<07533> (8802)
the needy
<034>_,
which say
<0559> (8802)
to their masters
<0113>_,
Bring
<0935> (8685)_,
and let us drink
<08354> (8799)_.
The Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
hath sworn
<07650> (8738)
by his holiness
<06944>_,
that, lo, the days
<03117>
shall come
<0935> (8802)
upon you, that he will take you away
<05375> (8765)
with hooks
<06793>_,
and your posterity
<0319>
with fishhooks
<01729> <05518>_.
And ye shall go out
<03318> (8799)
at the breaches
<06556>_,
every
<0802>
[cow at that which is] before her; and ye shall cast
<07993> (8689)
[them] into the palace
<02038>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{cast...: or, cast away the things of the palace}
Come
<0935> (8798)
to Bethel
<01008>_,
and transgress
<06586> (8798)_;
at Gilgal
<01537>
multiply
<07235> (8685)
transgression
<06586> (8800)_;
and bring
<0935> (8685)
your sacrifices
<02077>
every morning
<01242>_,
[and] your tithes
<04643>
after three
<07969>
years
<03117>_:
{three...: Heb. three years of days}
And offer
<06999> (8763)
a sacrifice of thanksgiving
<08426>
with leaven
<02557>_,
and proclaim
<07121> (8798)
[and] publish
<08085> (8685)
the free offerings
<05071>_:
for this
<03651>
liketh
<0157> (8804)
you, O ye children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
{offer: Heb. offer by burning} {this...: Heb. so ye love}
And I also have given
<05414> (8804)
you cleanness
<05356>
of teeth
<08127>
in all your cities
<05892>_,
and want
<02640>
of bread
<03899>
in all your places
<04725>_:
yet have ye not returned
<07725> (8804)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
And also I have withholden
<04513> (8804)
the rain
<01653>
from you, when [there were] yet three
<07969>
months
<02320>
to the harvest
<07105>_:
and I caused it to rain
<04305> (8689)
upon one
<0259>
city
<05892>_,
and caused it not to rain
<04305> (8686)
upon another
<0259>
city
<05892>_:
one
<0259>
piece
<02513>
was rained
<04305> (8735)
upon, and the piece
<02513>
whereupon it rained
<04305> (8686)
not withered
<03001> (8799)_.
So two
<08147>
[or] three
<07969>
cities
<05892>
wandered
<05128> (8804)
unto one
<0259>
city
<05892>_,
to drink
<08354> (8800)
water
<04325>_;
but they were not satisfied
<07646> (8799)_:
yet have ye not returned
<07725> (8804)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
I have smitten
<05221> (8689)
you with blasting
<07711>
and mildew
<03420>_:
when your gardens
<01593>
and your vineyards
<03754>
and your fig trees
<08384>
and your olive trees
<02132>
increased
<07235> (8687)_,
the palmerworm
<01501>
devoured
<0398> (8799)
[them]: yet have ye not returned
<07725> (8804)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{when...: or, the multitude of your gardens, etc. did the palmerworm}
I have sent
<07971> (8765)
among you the pestilence
<01698>
after the manner
<01870>
of Egypt
<04714>_:
your young men
<0970>
have I slain
<02026> (8804)
with the sword
<02719>_,
and have taken away
<07628>
your horses
<05483>_;
and I have made the stink
<0889>
of your camps
<04264>
to come up
<05927> (8686)
unto your nostrils
<0639>_:
yet have ye not returned
<07725> (8804)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{after...: or, in the way} {and have...: Heb. with the captivity of your horses}
I have overthrown
<02015> (8804)
[some] of you, as God
<0430>
overthrew
<04114>
Sodom
<05467>
and Gomorrah
<06017>_,
and ye were as a firebrand
<0181>
plucked out
<05337> (8716)
of the burning
<08316>_:
yet have ye not returned
<07725> (8804)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Therefore thus will I do
<06213> (8799)
unto thee, O Israel
<03478>_:
[and] because
<06118>
I will do
<06213> (8799)
this unto thee, prepare
<03559> (8734)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
thy God
<0430>_,
O Israel
<03478>_.
For, lo, he that formeth
<03335> (8802)
the mountains
<02022>_,
and createth
<01254> (8802)
the wind
<07307>_,
and declareth
<05046> (8688)
unto man
<0120>
what [is] his thought
<07808>_,
that maketh
<06213> (8802)
the morning
<07837>
darkness
<05890>_,
and treadeth
<01869> (8802)
upon the high places
<01116>
of the earth
<0776>_,
The LORD
<03068>_,
The God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
[is] his name
<08034>_.
{wind: or, spirit}
Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye this word
<01697>
which I take up
<05375> (8802)
against you, [even] a lamentation
<07015>_,
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_.
The virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>
is fallen
<05307> (8804)_;
she shall no more
<03254> (8686)
rise
<06965> (8800)_:
she is forsaken
<05203> (8738)
upon her land
<0127>_;
[there is] none to raise her up
<06965> (8688)_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
The city
<05892>
that went out
<03318> (8802)
[by] a thousand
<0505>
shall leave
<07604> (8686)
an hundred
<03967>_,
and that which went forth
<03318> (8802)
[by] an hundred
<03967>
shall leave
<07604> (8686)
ten
<06235>_,
to the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
unto the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Seek
<01875> (8798)
ye me, and ye shall live
<02421> (8798)_:
But seek
<01875> (8799)
not Bethel
<01008>_,
nor enter
<0935> (8799)
into Gilgal
<01537>_,
and pass
<05674> (8799)
not to Beersheba
<0884>_:
for Gilgal
<01537>
shall surely
<01540> (8800)
go into captivity
<01540> (8799)_,
and Bethel
<01008>
shall come to nought
<0205>_.
Seek
<01875> (8798)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and ye shall live
<02421> (8798)_;
lest he break out
<06743> (8799)
like fire
<0784>
in the house
<01004>
of Joseph
<03130>_,
and devour
<0398> (8804)
[it], and [there be] none to quench
<03518> (8764)
[it] in Bethel
<01008>_.
Ye who turn
<02015> (8802)
judgment
<04941>
to wormwood
<03939>_,
and leave off
<03240> (8689)
righteousness
<06666>
in the earth
<0776>_,
[Seek him] that maketh
<06213> (8802)
the seven stars
<03598>
and Orion
<03685>_,
and turneth
<02015> (8802)
the shadow of death
<06757>
into the morning
<01242>_,
and maketh the day
<03117>
dark
<02821> (8689)
with night
<03915>_:
that calleth
<07121> (8802)
for the waters
<04325>
of the sea
<03220>_,
and poureth them out
<08210> (8799)
upon the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0776>_:
The LORD
<03068>
[is] his name
<08034>_:
That strengtheneth
<01082> (8688)
the spoiled
<07701>
against the strong
<05794>_,
so that the spoiled
<07701>
shall come
<0935> (8799)
against the fortress
<04013>_.
{spoiled: Heb. spoil}
They hate
<08130> (8804)
him that rebuketh
<03198> (8688)
in the gate
<08179>_,
and they abhor
<08581> (8762)
him that speaketh
<01696> (8802)
uprightly
<08549>_.
Forasmuch
<03282>
therefore as your treading
<01318> (8780)
[is] upon the poor
<01800>_,
and ye take
<03947> (8799)
from him burdens
<04864>
of wheat
<01250>_:
ye have built
<01129> (8804)
houses
<01004>
of hewn stone
<01496>_,
but ye shall not dwell
<03427> (8799)
in them; ye have planted
<05193> (8804)
pleasant
<02531>
vineyards
<03754>_,
but ye shall not drink
<08354> (8799)
wine
<03196>
of them. {pleasant...: Heb. vineyards of desire}
For I know
<03045> (8804)
your manifold
<07227>
transgressions
<06588>
and your mighty
<06099>
sins
<02403>_:
they afflict
<06887> (8802)
the just
<06662>_,
they take
<03947> (8802)
a bribe
<03724>_,
and they turn aside
<05186> (8689)
the poor
<034>
in the gate
<08179>
[from their right]. {a bribe: or, a ransom}
Therefore the prudent
<07919> (8688)
shall keep silence
<01826> (8799)
in that time
<06256>_;
for it [is] an evil
<07451>
time
<06256>_.
Seek
<01875> (8798)
good
<02896>_,
and not evil
<07451>_,
that ye may live
<02421> (8799)_:
and so the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
shall be with you, as ye have spoken
<0559> (8804)_.
Hate
<08130> (8798)
the evil
<07451>_,
and love
<0157> (8798)
the good
<02896>_,
and establish
<03322> (8685)
judgment
<04941>
in the gate
<08179>_:
it may be that the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>
will be gracious
<02603> (8799)
unto the remnant
<07611>
of Joseph
<03130>_.
Therefore the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the Lord
<0136>_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
thus; Wailing
<04553>
[shall be] in all streets
<07339>_;
and they shall say
<0559> (8799)
in all the highways
<02351>_,
Alas
<01930>_!
alas
<01930>_!
and they shall call
<07121> (8804)
the husbandman
<0406>
to mourning
<060>_,
and such as are skilful
<03045> (8802)
of lamentation
<05092>
to wailing
<04553>_.
And in all vineyards
<03754>
[shall be] wailing
<04553>_:
for I will pass
<05674> (8799)
through
<07130>
thee, saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Woe
<01945>
unto you that desire
<0183> (8693)
the day
<03117>
of the LORD
<03068>_!
to what end
<04100>
[is] it for you? the day
<03117>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] darkness
<02822>_,
and not light
<0216>_.
As if a man
<0376>
did flee
<05127> (8799)
from
<06440>
a lion
<0738>_,
and a bear
<01677>
met
<06293> (8804)
him; or went
<0935> (8804)
into the house
<01004>_,
and leaned
<05564> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
on the wall
<07023>_,
and a serpent
<05175>
bit
<05391> (8804)
him.
[Shall] not the day
<03117>
of the LORD
<03068>
[be] darkness
<02822>_,
and not light
<0216>_?
even very dark
<0651>_,
and no brightness
<05051>
in it?
I hate
<08130> (8804)_,
I despise
<03988> (8804)
your feast days
<02282>_,
and I will not smell
<07306> (8686)
in your solemn assemblies
<06116>_.
{in...: or, your holy days}
Though ye offer
<05927> (8686)
me burnt offerings
<05930>
and your meat offerings
<04503>_,
I will not accept
<07521> (8799)
[them]: neither will I regard
<05027> (8686)
the peace offerings
<08002>
of your fat beasts
<04806>_.
{peace...: or, thank offerings}
Take thou away
<05493> (8685)
from me the noise
<01995>
of thy songs
<07892>_;
for I will not hear
<08085> (8799)
the melody
<02172>
of thy viols
<05035>_.
But let judgment
<04941>
run down
<01556> (8735)
as waters
<04325>_,
and righteousness
<06666>
as a mighty
<0386>
stream
<05158>_.
{run: Heb. roll}
Have ye offered
<05066> (8689)
unto me sacrifices
<02077>
and offerings
<04503>
in the wilderness
<04057>
forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_,
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_?
But ye have borne
<05375> (8804)
the tabernacle
<05522>
of your Moloch
<04428>
and Chiun
<03594>
your images
<06754>_,
the star
<03556>
of your god
<0430>_,
which ye made
<06213> (8804)
to yourselves. {the tabernacle...: or, Siccuth your king}
Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity
<01540> (8689)
beyond
<01973>
Damascus
<01834>_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
whose name
<08034>
[is] The God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_.
Woe
<01945>
to them [that are] at ease
<07600>
in Zion
<06726>_,
and trust
<0982> (8802)
in the mountain
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
[which are] named
<05344> (8803)
chief
<07225>
of the nations
<01471>_,
to whom the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
came
<0935> (8804)_!
{are at...: or, are secure} {chief: or, firstfruits}
Pass
<05674> (8798)
ye unto Calneh
<03641>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)_;
and from thence go
<03212> (8798)
ye to Hamath
<02574>
the great
<07227> (8677) <02579>_:
then go down
<03381> (8798)
to Gath
<01661>
of the Philistines
<06430>_:
[be they] better
<02896>
than these kingdoms
<04467>_?
or their border
<01366>
greater
<07227>
than your border
<01366>_?
Ye that put far away
<05077> (8764)
the evil
<07451>
day
<03117>_,
and cause the seat
<07675> (8800)
of violence
<02555>
to come near
<05066> (8686)_;
{seat: or, habitation}
That lie
<07901> (8802)
upon beds
<04296>
of ivory
<08127>_,
and stretch
<05628> (8803)
themselves upon their couches
<06210>_,
and eat
<0398> (8802)
the lambs
<03733>
out of the flock
<06629>_,
and the calves
<05695>
out of the midst
<08432>
of the stall
<04770>_;
{stretch...: or, abound with superfluities}
That chant
<06527> (8802)
to the sound
<06310>
of the viol
<05035>_,
[and] invent
<02803> (8804)
to themselves instruments
<03627>
of musick
<07892>_,
like David
<01732>_;
{chant: or, quaver}
That drink
<08354> (8802)
wine
<03196>
in bowls
<04219>_,
and anoint
<04886> (8799)
themselves with the chief
<07225>
ointments
<08081>_:
but they are not grieved
<02470> (8738)
for the affliction
<07667>
of Joseph
<03130>_.
{wine...: or, in bowls of wine} {affliction: Heb. breach}
Therefore now shall they go captive
<01540> (8799)
with the first
<07218>
that go captive
<01540> (8802)_,
and the banquet
<04797>
of them that stretched
<05628> (8803)
themselves shall be removed
<05493> (8804)_.
The Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
hath sworn
<07650> (8738)
by himself
<05315>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
I abhor
<08374> (8764)
the excellency
<01347>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and hate
<08130> (8804)
his palaces
<0759>_:
therefore will I deliver up
<05462> (8689)
the city
<05892>
with all that is therein
<04393>_.
{that...: Heb. the fulness thereof}
And it shall come to pass, if there remain
<03498> (8735)
ten
<06235>
men
<0582>
in one
<0259>
house
<01004>_,
that they shall die
<04191> (8804)_.
And a man's uncle
<01730>
shall take him up
<05375> (8804)_,
and he that burneth
<05635> (8764)
him, to bring out
<03318> (8687)
the bones
<06106>
out of the house
<01004>_,
and shall say
<0559> (8804)
unto him that [is] by the sides
<03411>
of the house
<01004>_,
[Is there] yet [any] with thee? and he shall say
<0559> (8804)_,
No
<0657>_.
Then shall he say
<0559> (8804)_,
Hold thy tongue
<02013> (8761)_:
for we may not make mention
<02142> (8687)
of the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{we...: or, they will not, or, have not}
For, behold, the LORD
<03068>
commandeth
<06680> (8764)_,
and he will smite
<05221> (8689)
the great
<01419>
house
<01004>
with breaches
<07447>_,
and the little
<06996>
house
<01004>
with clefts
<01233>_.
{breaches: or, droppings}
Shall horses
<05483>
run
<07323> (8799)
upon the rock
<05553>_?
will [one] plow
<02790> (8799)
[there] with oxen
<01241>_?
for ye have turned
<02015> (8804)
judgment
<04941>
into gall
<07219>_,
and the fruit
<06529>
of righteousness
<06666>
into hemlock
<03939>_:
Ye which rejoice
<08056>
in a thing
<01697>
of nought
<03808>_,
which say
<0559> (8802)_,
Have we not taken
<03947> (8804)
to us horns
<07161>
by our own strength
<02392>_?
But, behold, I will raise up
<06965> (8688)
against you a nation
<01471>_,
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_;
and they shall afflict
<03905> (8804)
you from the entering in
<0935> (8800)
of Hemath
<02574>
unto the river
<05158>
of the wilderness
<06160>_.
