Isaiah 28:1--35:10

Woe
<01945>
to the crown
<05850>
of pride
<01348>_,
to the drunkards
<07910>
of Ephraim
<0669>_,
whose glorious
<06643>
beauty
<08597>
[is] a fading
<05034> (8802)
flower
<06731>_,
which [are] on the head
<07218>
of the fat
<08081>
valleys
<01516>
of them that are overcome
<01986> (8803)
with wine
<03196>_!
{overcome: Heb. broken}
Behold, the Lord
<0136>
hath a mighty
<02389>
and strong one
<0533>_,
[which] as a tempest
<02230>
of hail
<01259>
[and] a destroying
<06986>
storm
<08178>_,
as a flood
<02230>
of mighty
<03524>
waters
<04325>
overflowing
<07857> (8802)_,
shall cast down
<03240> (8689)
to the earth
<0776>
with the hand
<03027>_.
The crown
<05850>
of pride
<01348>_,
the drunkards
<07910>
of Ephraim
<0669>_,
shall be trodden
<07429> (8735)
under feet
<07272>_:
{under...: Heb. with feet}
And the glorious
<06643>
beauty
<08597>_,
which [is] on the head
<07218>
of the fat
<08081>
valley
<01516>_,
shall be a fading
<05034> (8802)
flower
<06733>_,
[and] as the hasty fruit
<01061>
before the summer
<07019>_;
which [when] he that looketh
<07200> (8802)
upon it seeth
<07200> (8799)_,
while it is yet in his hand
<03709>
he eateth it up
<01104> (8799)_.
{eateth: Heb. swalloweth}
In that day
<03117>
shall the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
be for a crown
<05850>
of glory
<06643>_,
and for a diadem
<06843>
of beauty
<08597>_,
unto the residue
<07605>
of his people
<05971>_,
And for a spirit
<07307>
of judgment
<04941>
to him that sitteth
<03427> (8802)
in judgment
<04941>_,
and for strength
<01369>
to them that turn
<07725> (8688)
the battle
<04421>
to the gate
<08179>_.
But they
<0428>
also have erred
<07686> (8804)
through wine
<03196>_,
and through strong drink
<07941>
are out of the way
<08582> (8804)_;
the priest
<03548>
and the prophet
<05030>
have erred
<07686> (8804)
through strong drink
<07941>_,
they are swallowed up
<01104> (8738)
of
<04480>
wine
<03196>_,
they are out of the way
<08582> (8804)
through strong drink
<07941>_;
they err
<07686> (8804)
in vision
<07203>_,
they stumble
<06328> (8804)
[in] judgment
<06417>_.
For all tables
<07979>
are full
<04390> (8804)
of vomit
<06892>
[and] filthiness
<06675>_,
[so that there is] no place
<04725>
[clean].
Whom shall he teach
<03384> (8686)
knowledge
<01844>_?
and whom shall he make to understand
<0995> (8799)
doctrine
<08052>_?
[them that are] weaned
<01580> (8803)
from the milk
<02461>_,
[and] drawn
<06267>
from the breasts
<07699>_.
{doctrine: Heb. the hearing?}
For precept
<06673>
[must be] upon precept
<06673>_,
precept
<06673>
upon precept
<06673>_;
line
<06957>
upon line
<06957>_,
line
<06957>
upon line
<06957>_;
here a little
<02191>_,
[and] there a little
<02191>_:
{must be: or, hath been}
For with stammering
<03934>
lips
<08193>
and another
<0312>
tongue
<03956>
will he speak
<01696> (8762)
to this people
<05971>_.
{stammering...: Heb. stammerings of lip} {will...: or, he hath spoken}
To whom he said
<0559> (8804)_,
This [is] the rest
<04496>
[wherewith] ye may cause the weary
<05889>
to rest
<05117> (8685)_;
and this [is] the refreshing
<04774>_:
yet they would
<014> (8804)
not hear
<08085> (8800)_.
But the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
was unto them precept
<06673>
upon precept
<06673>_,
precept
<06673>
upon precept
<06673>_;
line
<06957>
upon line
<06957>_,
line
<06957>
upon line
<06957>_;
here a little
<02191>_,
[and] there a little
<02191>_;
that they might go
<03212> (8799)_,
and fall
<03782> (8804)
backward
<0268>_,
and be broken
<07665> (8738)_,
and snared
<03369> (8738)_,
and taken
<03920> (8738)_.
Wherefore hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
ye scornful
<03944>
men
<0582>_,
that rule
<04910> (8802)
this people
<05971>
which [is] in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Because ye have said
<0559> (8804)_,
We have made
<03772> (8804)
a covenant
<01285>
with death
<04194>_,
and with hell
<07585>
are we
<06213> (8804)
at agreement
<02374>_;
when the overflowing
<07857> (8802)
scourge
<07752> (8675) <07885>
shall pass through
<05674> (8799) (8675) <05674> (8804)_,
it shall not come
<0935> (8799)
unto us: for we have made
<07760> (8804)
lies
<03577>
our refuge
<04268>_,
and under falsehood
<08267>
have we hid
<05641> (8738)
ourselves:
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
Behold, I lay
<03245> (8765)
in Zion
<06726>
for a foundation a stone
<068>_,
a tried
<0976>
stone
<068>_,
a precious
<03368>
corner
<06438>
[stone], a sure
<03245> (8716)
foundation
<04143>_:
he that believeth
<0539> (8688)
shall not make haste
<02363> (8686)_.
Judgment
<04941>
also will I lay
<07760> (8804)
to the line
<06957>_,
and righteousness
<06666>
to the plummet
<04949>_:
and the hail
<01259>
shall sweep away
<03261> (8804)
the refuge
<04268>
of lies
<03577>_,
and the waters
<04325>
shall overflow
<07857> (8799)
the hiding place
<05643>_.
And your covenant
<01285>
with death
<04194>
shall be disannulled
<03722> (8795)_,
and your agreement
<02380>
with hell
<07585>
shall not stand
<06965> (8799)_;
when the overflowing
<07857> (8802)
scourge
<07752>
shall pass through
<05674> (8799)_,
then ye shall be trodden down
<04823>
by it. {trodden...: Heb. a treading down to it}
From the time
<01767>
that it goeth forth
<05674> (8800)
it shall take
<03947> (8799)
you: for morning
<01242>
by morning
<01242>
shall it pass over
<05674> (8799)_,
by day
<03117>
and by night
<03915>_:
and it shall be a vexation
<02113>
only [to] understand
<0995> (8687)
the report
<08052>_.
{to...: or, when he shall make you to understand doctrine}
For the bed
<04702>
is shorter
<07114> (8804)
than that [a man] can stretch
<08311> (8692)
himself [on it]: and the covering
<04541>
narrower
<06887> (8804)
than that he can wrap
<03664> (8692)
himself [in it].
For the LORD
<03068>
shall rise up
<06965> (8799)
as [in] mount
<02022>
Perazim
<06559>_,
he shall be wroth
<07264> (8799)
as [in] the valley
<06010>
of Gibeon
<01391>_,
that he may do
<06213> (8800)
his work
<04639>_,
his strange
<02114> (8801)
work
<04639>_;
and bring to pass
<05647> (8800)
his act
<05656>_,
his strange
<05237>
act
<05656>_.
Now therefore be ye not mockers
<03887> (8698)_,
lest your bands
<04147>
be made strong
<02388> (8799)_:
for I have heard
<08085> (8804)
from the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
of hosts
<06635>
a consumption
<03617>_,
even determined
<02782> (8737)
upon the whole earth
<0776>_.
Give ye ear
<0238> (8685)_,
and hear
<08085> (8798)
my voice
<06963>_;
hearken
<07181> (8685)_,
and hear
<08085> (8798)
my speech
<0565>_.
Doth the plowman
<02790> (8802)
plow
<02790> (8799)
all day
<03117>
to sow
<02232> (8800)_?
doth he open
<06605> (8762)
and break the clods
<07702> (8762)
of his ground
<0127>_?
When he hath made plain
<07737> (8765)
the face
<06440>
thereof, doth he not cast abroad
<06327> (8689)
the fitches
<07100>_,
and scatter
<02236> (8799)
the cummin
<03646>_,
and cast
<07760> (8804)
in the principal
<07795>
wheat
<02406>
and the appointed
<05567> (8737)
barley
<08184>
and the rie
<03698>
in their place
<01367>_?
{the principal...: or, the wheat in the principal place, and barley in the appointed place} {rie: or, spelt} {place: Heb. border?}
For his God
<0430>
doth instruct
<03256> (8765)
him to discretion
<04941>_,
[and] doth teach
<03384> (8686)
him. {For...: or, And he bindeth it in such sort as his God doth teach him}
For the fitches
<07100>
are not threshed
<01758> (8714)
with a threshing instrument
<02742>_,
neither is a cart
<05699>
wheel
<0212>
turned about
<05437> (8714)
upon the cummin
<03646>_;
but the fitches
<07100>
are beaten out
<02251> (8735)
with a staff
<04294>_,
and the cummin
<03646>
with a rod
<07626>_.
Bread
<03899>
[corn] is bruised
<01854> (8714)_;
because he will not ever
<05331>
be threshing
<0156> (8800) <01758> (8799)
it, nor break
<02000> (8804)
[it with] the wheel
<01536>
of his cart
<05699>_,
nor bruise
<01854> (8799)
it [with] his horsemen
<06571>_.
This also cometh forth
<03318> (8804)
from the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
[which] is wonderful
<06381> (8689)
in counsel
<06098>_,
[and] excellent
<01431> (8689)
in working
<08454>_.
Woe
<01945>
to Ariel
<0740>_,
to Ariel
<0740>_,
the city
<07151>
[where] David
<01732>
dwelt
<02583> (8804)_!
add
<05595> (8798)
ye year
<08141>
to year
<08141>_;
let them kill
<05362> (8799)
sacrifices
<02282>_.
{Woe...: or, O Ariel, that is, the lion of God} {the city: or, of the city} {kill: Heb. cut off the heads of}
Yet I will distress
<06693> (8689)
Ariel
<0740>_,
and there shall be heaviness
<08386>
and sorrow
<0592>_:
and it shall be unto me as Ariel
<0740>_.
And I will camp
<02583> (8804)
against thee round about
<01754>_,
and will lay siege
<06696> (8804)
against thee with a mount
<04674>_,
and I will raise
<06965> (8689)
forts
<04694>
against thee.
And thou shalt be brought down
<08213> (8804)_,
[and] shalt speak
<01696> (8762)
out of the ground
<0776>_,
and thy speech
<0565>
shall be low
<07817> (8735)
out of the dust
<06083>_,
and thy voice
<06963>
shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit
<0178>_,
out of the ground
<0776>_,
and thy speech
<0565>
shall whisper
<06850> (8770)
out of the dust
<06083>_.
{whisper: Heb. peep, or, chirp}
Moreover the multitude
<01995>
of thy strangers
<02114> (8801)
shall be like small
<01851>
dust
<080>_,
and the multitude
<01995>
of the terrible ones
<06184>
[shall be] as chaff
<04671>
that passeth away
<05674> (8802)_:
yea, it shall be at an instant
<06621>
suddenly
<06597>_.
Thou shalt be visited
<06485> (8735)
of the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
with thunder
<07482>_,
and with earthquake
<07494>_,
and great
<01419>
noise
<06963>_,
with storm
<05492>
and tempest
<05591>_,
and the flame
<03851>
of devouring
<0398> (8802)
fire
<0784>_.
And the multitude
<01995>
of all the nations
<01471>
that fight
<06633> (8802)
against Ariel
<0740>_,
even all that fight
<06638> (8802)
against her and her munition
<04685>_,
and that distress
<06693> (8688)
her, shall be as a dream
<02472>
of a night
<03915>
vision
<02377>_.
It shall even be as when an hungry
<07457>
[man] dreameth
<02492> (8799)_,
and, behold, he eateth
<0398> (8802)_;
but he awaketh
<06974> (8689)_,
and his soul
<05315>
is empty
<07386>_:
or as when
<0834>
a thirsty man
<06771>
dreameth
<02492> (8799)_,
and, behold, he drinketh
<08354> (8802)_;
but he awaketh
<06974> (8689)_,
and, behold, [he is] faint
<05889>_,
and his soul
<05315>
hath appetite
<08264> (8802)_:
so shall the multitude
<01995>
of all the nations
<01471>
be, that fight
<06633> (8802)
against mount
<02022>
Zion
<06726>_.
Stay
<04102> (8697)
yourselves, and wonder
<08539> (8798)_;
cry ye out
<08173> (8697)_,
and cry
<08173> (8798)_:
they are drunken
<07937> (8804)_,
but not with wine
<03196>_;
they stagger
<05128> (8804)_,
but not with strong drink
<07941>_.
{cry ye...: or, take your pleasure, and riot}
For the LORD
<03068>
hath poured out
<05258> (8804)
upon you the spirit
<07307>
of deep sleep
<08639>_,
and hath closed
<06105> (8762)
your eyes
<05869>_:
the prophets
<05030>
and your rulers
<07218>_,
the seers
<02374>
hath he covered
<03680> (8765)_.
{rulers: Heb. heads}
And the vision
<02380>
of all is become unto you as the words
<01697>
of a book
<05612>
that is sealed
<02856> (8803)_,
which [men] deliver
<05414> (8799)
to one that is learned
<03045> (8802)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Read
<07121> (8798)
this, I pray thee: and he saith
<0559> (8804)_,
I cannot
<03201> (8799)_;
for it [is] sealed
<02856> (8803)_:
{book: or, letter}
And the book
<05612>
is delivered
<05414> (8738)
to him that is not learned
<03045> (8804) <05612>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Read
<07121> (8798)
this, I pray thee: and he saith
<0559> (8804)_,
I am not learned
<03045> (8804)_.
Wherefore the Lord
<0136>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Forasmuch
<03282>
as this people
<05971>
draw near
<05066> (8738)
[me] with their mouth
<06310>_,
and with their lips
<08193>
do honour
<03513> (8765)
me, but have removed
<07368> (0)
their heart
<03820>
far
<07368> (8765)
from me, and their fear
<03374>
toward me is taught
<03925> (8794)
by the precept
<04687>
of men
<0582>_:
Therefore, behold, I will proceed
<03254> (8802)
to do a marvellous work
<06381> (8687)
among this people
<05971>_,
[even] a marvellous work
<06381> (8687)
and a wonder
<06382>_:
for the wisdom
<02451>
of their wise
<02450>
[men] shall perish
<06> (8804)_,
and the understanding
<0998>
of their prudent
<0995> (8737)
[men] shall be hid
<05641> (8691)_.
{proceed: Heb. add}
Woe
<01945>
unto them that seek deep
<06009> (8688)
to hide
<05641> (8687)
their counsel
<06098>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
and their works
<04639>
are in the dark
<04285>_,
and they say
<0559> (8799)_,
Who seeth
<07200> (8802)
us? and who knoweth
<03045> (8802)
us?
Surely your turning of things upside down
<02017> (8800)
shall be esteemed
<02803> (8735)
as the potter's
<03335> (8802)
clay
<02563>_:
for shall the work
<04639>
say
<0559> (8799)
of him that made
<06213> (8802)
it, He made
<06213> (8804)
me not? or shall the thing framed
<03336>
say
<0559> (8804)
of him that framed
<03335> (8802)
it, He had no understanding
<0995> (8689)_?
[Is] it not yet a very
<04213>
little while
<04592>_,
and Lebanon
<03844>
shall be turned
<07725> (8804)
into a fruitful field
<03759>_,
and the fruitful field
<03759>
shall be esteemed
<02803> (8735)
as a forest
<03293>_?
And in that day
<03117>
shall the deaf
<02795>
hear
<08085> (8804)
the words
<01697>
of the book
<05612>_,
and the eyes
<05869>
of the blind
<05787>
shall see
<07200> (8799)
out of obscurity
<0652>_,
and out of darkness
<02822>_.
The meek
<06035>
also shall increase
<03254> (8804)
[their] joy
<08057>
in the LORD
<03068>_,
and the poor
<034>
among men
<0120>
shall rejoice
<01523> (8799)
in the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{increase: Heb. add}
For the terrible one
<06184>
is brought to nought
<0656> (8804)_,
and the scorner
<03887> (8801)
is consumed
<03615> (8804)_,
and all that watch
<08245> (8802)
for iniquity
<0205>
are cut off
<03772> (8738)_:
That make a man
<0120>
an offender
<02398> (8688)
for a word
<01697>_,
and lay a snare
<06983> (8799)
for him that reproveth
<03198> (8688)
in the gate
<08179>_,
and turn aside
<05186> (8686)
the just
<06662>
for a thing of nought
<08414>_.
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
who redeemed
<06299> (8804)
Abraham
<085>_,
concerning the house
<01004>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
Jacob
<03290>
shall not now be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,
neither shall his face
<06440>
now wax pale
<02357> (8799)_.
But when he seeth
<07200> (8800)
his children
<03206>_,
the work
<04639>
of mine hands
<03027>_,
in the midst
<07130>
of him, they shall sanctify
<06942> (8686)
my name
<08034>_,
and sanctify
<06942> (8689)
the Holy One
<06918>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and shall fear
<06206> (8686)
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
They also that erred
<08582> (8802)
in spirit
<07307>
shall come
<03045> (8804)
to understanding
<0998>_,
and they that murmured
<07279> (8803)
shall learn
<03925> (8799)
doctrine
<03948>_.
{come...: Heb. know understanding}
Woe
<01945>
to the rebellious
<05637> (8802)
children
<01121>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that take
<06213> (8800)
counsel
<06098>_,
but not of me; and that cover
<05258> (8800)
with a covering
<04541>_,
but not of my spirit
<07307>_,
that they may add
<05595> (8800)
sin
<02403>
to sin
<02403>_:
That walk
<01980> (8802)
to go down
<03381> (8800)
into Egypt
<04714>_,
and have not asked
<07592> (8804)
at my mouth
<06310>_;
to strengthen
<05810> (8800)
themselves in the strength
<04581>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and to trust
<02620> (8800)
in the shadow
<06738>
of Egypt
<04714>_!
Therefore shall the strength
<04581>
of Pharaoh
<06547>
be your shame
<01322>_,
and the trust
<02622>
in the shadow
<06738>
of Egypt
<04714>
[your] confusion
<03639>_.
For his princes
<08269>
were at Zoan
<06814>_,
and his ambassadors
<04397>
came
<05060> (8686)
to Hanes
<02609>_.
They were all ashamed
<03001> (8689)
of a people
<05971>
[that] could not profit
<03276> (8686)
them, nor be an help
<05828>
nor profit
<03276> (8687)_,
but a shame
<01322>_,
and also a reproach
<02781>_.
The burden
<04853>
of the beasts
<0929>
of the south
<05045>_:
into the land
<0776>
of trouble
<06869>
and anguish
<06695>_,
from whence [come] the young
<03833>
and old lion
<03918>_,
the viper
<0660>
and fiery
<08314> (0)
flying
<05774> (8789)
serpent
<08314>_,
they will carry
<05375> (8799)
their riches
<02428>
upon the shoulders
<03802>
of young asses
<05895>_,
and their treasures
<0214>
upon the bunches
<01707>
of camels
<01581>_,
to a people
<05971>
[that] shall not profit
<03276> (8686)
[them].
For the Egyptians
<04714>
shall help
<05826> (8799)
in vain
<01892>_,
and to no purpose
<07385>_:
therefore have I cried
<07121> (8804)
concerning this
<02063>_,
Their
<01992>
strength
<07293>
[is] to sit still
<07674>_.
{concerning...: or, to her}
Now go
<0935> (8798)_,
write
<03789> (8798)
it before them in a table
<03871>_,
and note
<02710> (8798)
it in a book
<05612>_,
that it may be for the time
<03117>
to come
<0314>
for
<05704>
ever
<05703>
and ever
<05769>_:
{the...: Heb. the latter day}
That this [is] a rebellious
<04805>
people
<05971>_,
lying
<03586>
children
<01121>_,
children
<01121>
[that] will
<014> (8804)
not hear
<08085> (8800)
the law
<08451>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
Which say
<0559> (8804)
to the seers
<07200> (8802)_,
See
<07200> (8799)
not; and to the prophets
<02374>_,
Prophesy
<02372> (8799)
not unto us right things
<05229>_,
speak
<01696> (8761)
unto us smooth things
<02513>_,
prophesy
<02372> (8798)
deceits
<04123>_:
Get you out
<05493> (8798)
of the way
<01870>_,
turn aside
<05186> (8685)
out of the path
<0734>_,
cause the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>
to cease
<07673> (8685)
from before
<06440>
us.
Wherefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Because ye despise
<03988> (8800)
this word
<01697>_,
and trust
<0982> (8799)
in oppression
<06233>
and perverseness
<03868> (8737)_,
and stay
<08172> (8735)
thereon: {oppression: or, fraud}
Therefore this iniquity
<05771>
shall be to you as a breach
<06556>
ready to fall
<05307> (8802)_,
swelling out
<01158> (8737)
in a high
<07682> (8737)
wall
<02346>_,
whose breaking
<07667>
cometh
<0935> (8799)
suddenly
<06597>
at an instant
<06621>_.
And he shall break
<07665> (8804)
it as the breaking
<07667>
of the potters
<03335> (8802)_'
vessel
<05035>
that is broken in pieces
<03807> (8800)_;
he shall not spare
<02550> (8799)_:
so that there shall not be found
<04672> (8735)
in the bursting
<04386>
of it a sherd
<02789>
to take
<02846> (8800)
fire
<0784>
from the hearth
<03344> (8803)_,
or to take
<02834> (8800)
water
<04325>
[withal] out of the pit
<01360>_.
{the potters'...: Heb. the bottle of potters}
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_;
In returning
<07729>
and rest
<05183>
shall ye be saved
<03467> (8735)_;
in quietness
<08252> (8687)
and in confidence
<0985>
shall be your strength
<01369>_:
and ye would
<014> (8804)
not.
But ye said
<0559> (8799)_,
No; for we will flee
<05127> (8799)
upon horses
<05483>_;
therefore shall ye flee
<05127> (8799)_:
and, We will ride
<07392> (8799)
upon the swift
<07031>_;
therefore shall they that pursue
<07291> (8802)
you be swift
<07043> (8735)_.
One
<0259>
thousand
<0505>
[shall flee] at
<06440>
the rebuke
<01606>
of one
<0259>_;
at
<06440>
the rebuke
<01606>
of five
<02568>
shall ye flee
<05127> (8799)_:
till ye be left
<03498> (8738)
as a beacon
<08650>
upon the top
<07218>
of a mountain
<02022>_,
and as an ensign
<05251>
on an hill
<01389>_.
{a beacon: or, a tree bereft of branches, or, boughs: or, a mast}
And therefore will the LORD
<03068>
wait
<02442> (8762)_,
that he may be gracious
<02603> (8800)
unto you, and therefore will he be exalted
<07311> (8799)_,
that he may have mercy
<07355> (8763)
upon you: for the LORD
<03068>
[is] a God
<0430>
of judgment
<04941>_:
blessed
<0835>
[are] all they that wait
<02442> (8802)
for him.
For the people
<05971>
shall dwell
<03427> (8799)
in Zion
<06726>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_:
thou shalt weep
<01058> (8799)
no more
<01058> (8800)_:
he will be very
<02603> (8800)
gracious
<02603> (8799)
unto thee at the voice
<06963>
of thy cry
<02199> (8800)_;
when he shall hear
<08085> (8800)
it, he will answer
<06030> (8804)
thee.
And [though] the Lord
<0136>
give
<05414> (8804)
you the bread
<03899>
of adversity
<06862>_,
and the water
<04325>
of affliction
<03906>_,
yet shall not thy teachers
<03384> (8688)
be removed into a corner
<03670> (8735)
any more, but thine eyes
<05869>
shall see
<07200> (8802)
thy teachers
<03384> (8688)_:
{affliction: or, oppression}
And thine ears
<0241>
shall hear
<08085> (8799)
a word
<01697>
behind
<0310>
thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This [is] the way
<01870>_,
walk ye in it
<03212> (8798)_,
when ye turn to the right hand
<0541> (8686)_,
and when ye turn to the left
<08041> (8686)_.
Ye shall defile
<02930> (8765)
also the covering
<06826>
of thy graven images
<06456>
of silver
<03701>_,
and the ornament
<0642>
of thy molten images
<04541>
of gold
<02091>_:
thou shalt cast them away
<02219> (8799)
as a menstruous cloth
<01739>_;
thou shalt say
<0559> (8799)
unto it, Get thee hence
<03318> (8798)_.
{thy graven...: Heb. the graven images of thy silver} {cast: Heb. scatter}
Then shall he give
<05414> (8804)
the rain
<04306>
of thy seed
<02233>_,
that thou shalt sow
<02232> (8799)
the ground
<0127>
withal; and bread
<03899>
of the increase
<08393>
of the earth
<0127>_,
and it shall be fat
<01879>
and plenteous
<08082>_:
in that day
<03117>
shall thy cattle
<04735>
feed
<07462> (8799)
in large
<07337> (8737)
pastures
<03733>_.
The oxen
<0504>
likewise and the young asses
<05895>
that ear
<05647> (8802)
the ground
<0127>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
clean
<02548>
provender
<01098>_,
which hath been winnowed
<02219> (8802)
with the shovel
<07371>
and with the fan
<04214>_.
{clean: or, savoury: Heb. leavened}
And there shall be upon every high
<01364>
mountain
<02022>_,
and upon every high
<05375> (8737)
hill
<01389>_,
rivers
<06388>
[and] streams
<02988>
of waters
<04325>
in the day
<03117>
of the great
<07227>
slaughter
<02027>_,
when the towers
<04026>
fall
<05307> (8800)_.
{high hill: Heb. lifted up, etc}
Moreover the light
<0216>
of the moon
<03842>
shall be as the light
<0216>
of the sun
<02535>_,
and the light
<0216>
of the sun
<02535>
shall be sevenfold
<07659>_,
as the light
<0216>
of seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_,
in the day
<03117>
that the LORD
<03068>
bindeth up
<02280> (8800)
the breach
<07667>
of his people
<05971>_,
and healeth
<07495> (8799)
the stroke
<04273>
of their wound
<04347>_.
Behold, the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
cometh
<0935> (8804)
from far
<04801>_,
burning
<01197> (8802)
[with] his anger
<0639>_,
and the burden
<04858>
[thereof is] heavy
<03514>_:
his lips
<08193>
are full
<04390> (8804)
of indignation
<02195>_,
and his tongue
<03956>
as a devouring
<0398> (8802)
fire
<0784>_:
{burden...: or, grievousness of flame} {heavy: Heb. heaviness}
And his breath
<07307>_,
as an overflowing
<07857> (8802)
stream
<05158>_,
shall reach to the midst
<02673> (8799)
of the neck
<06677>_,
to sift
<05130> (8687)
the nations
<01471>
with the sieve
<05299>
of vanity
<07723>_:
and [there shall be] a bridle
<07448>
in the jaws
<03895>
of the people
<05971>_,
causing [them] to err
<08582> (8688)_.
Ye shall have a song
<07892>_,
as in the night
<03915>
[when] a holy
<06942> (0)
solemnity
<02282>
is kept
<06942> (8692)_;
and gladness
<08057>
of heart
<03824>_,
as when one goeth
<01980> (8802)
with a pipe
<02485>
to come
<0935> (8800)
into the mountain
<02022>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
to the mighty One
<06697>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{mighty...: Heb. Rock}
And the LORD
<03068>
shall cause his glorious
<01935>
voice
<06963>
to be heard
<08085> (8689)_,
and shall shew
<07200> (8686)
the lighting down
<05183>
of his arm
<02220>_,
with the indignation
<02197>
of [his] anger
<0639>_,
and [with] the flame
<03851>
of a devouring
<0398> (8802)
fire
<0784>_,
[with] scattering
<05311>_,
and tempest
<02230>_,
and hailstones
<068> <01259>_.
{his glorious...: Heb. the glory of his voice}
For through the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall the Assyrian
<0804>
be beaten down
<02865> (8735)_,
[which] smote
<05221> (8686)
with a rod
<07626>_.
And [in] every place
<03605>
where the grounded
<04145>
staff
<04294>
shall pass
<04569>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
shall lay
<05117> (8686)
upon him, [it] shall be with tabrets
<08596>
and harps
<03658>_:
and in battles
<04421>
of shaking
<08573>
will he fight
<03898> (8738)
with it. {in every...: Heb. every passing of the rod founded} {lay...: Heb. cause to rest upon} {with it: or, against them}
For Tophet
<08613>
[is] ordained
<06186> (8803)
of old
<0865>_;
yea, for the king
<04428>
it is prepared
<03559> (8717)_;
he hath made [it] deep
<06009> (8689)
[and] large
<07337> (8689)_:
the pile
<04071>
thereof [is] fire
<0784>
and much
<07235> (8687)
wood
<06086>_;
the breath
<05397>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
like a stream
<05158>
of brimstone
<01614>_,
doth kindle
<01197> (8802)
it. {of old: Heb. from yesterday}
Woe
<01945>
to them that go down
<03381> (8802)
to Egypt
<04714>
for help
<05833>_;
and stay
<08172> (8735)
on horses
<05483>_,
and trust
<0982> (8799)
in chariots
<07393>_,
because [they are] many
<07227>_;
and in horsemen
<06571>_,
because they are very
<03966>
strong
<06105> (8804)_;
but they look
<08159> (8804)
not unto the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_,
neither seek
<01875> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_!
Yet he also [is] wise
<02450>_,
and will bring
<0935> (8686)
evil
<07451>_,
and will not call back
<05493> (8689)
his words
<01697>_:
but will arise
<06965> (8804)
against the house
<01004>
of the evildoers
<07489> (8688)_,
and against the help
<05833>
of them that work
<06466> (8802)
iniquity
<0205>_.
{call...: Heb. remove}
Now the Egyptians
<04714>
[are] men
<0120>_,
and not God
<0410>_;
and their horses
<05483>
flesh
<01320>_,
and not spirit
<07307>_.
When the LORD
<03068>
shall stretch out
<05186> (8686)
his hand
<03027>_,
both he that helpeth
<05826> (8802)
shall fall
<03782> (8804)_,
and he that is holpen
<05826> (8803)
shall fall down
<05307> (8804)_,
and they all shall fail
<03615> (8799)
together
<03162>_.
For thus hath the LORD
<03068>
spoken
<0559> (8804)
unto me, Like as the lion
<0738>
and the young lion
<03715>
roaring
<01897> (8799)
on his prey
<02964>_,
when a multitude
<04393>
of shepherds
<07462> (8802)
is called forth
<07121> (8735)
against him, [he] will not be afraid
<02865> (8735)
of their voice
<06963>_,
nor abase
<06031> (8799)
himself for the noise
<01995>
of them: so shall the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
come down
<03381> (8799)
to fight
<06633> (8800)
for mount
<02022>
Zion
<06726>_,
and for the hill
<01389>
thereof. {noise: or, multitude}
As birds
<06833>
flying
<05774> (8802)_,
so will the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
defend
<01598> (8686)
Jerusalem
<03389>_;
defending
<01598> (8800)
also he will deliver
<05337> (8689)
[it; and] passing over
<06452> (8800)
he will preserve
<04422> (8689)
it.
Turn
<07725> (8798)
ye unto [him from] whom the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
have deeply
<06009> (8689)
revolted
<05627>_.
For in that day
<03117>
every man
<0376>
shall cast away
<03988> (8799)
his idols
<0457>
of silver
<03701>_,
and his idols
<0457>
of gold
<02091>_,
which your own hands
<03027>
have made
<06213> (8804)
unto you [for] a sin
<02399>_.
{his idols of gold: Heb. the idols of his gold}
Then shall the Assyrian
<0804>
fall
<05307> (8804)
with the sword
<02719>_,
not of a mighty man
<0376>_;
and the sword
<02719>_,
not of a mean man
<0120>_,
shall devour
<0398> (8799)
him: but he shall flee
<05127> (8804)
from
<06440>
the sword
<02719>_,
and his young men
<0970>
shall be discomfited
<04522>_.
{from: or, for fear of} {discomfited: or, tributary: Heb. for melting, or, tribute}
And he shall pass over
<05674> (8799)
to his strong hold
<05553>
for fear
<04032>_,
and his princes
<08269>
shall be afraid
<02865> (8804)
of the ensign
<05251>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
whose fire
<0217>
[is] in Zion
<06726>_,
and his furnace
<08574>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{he...: Heb. his rock shall pass away for fear} {his strong hold: or, his strength}
Behold, a king
<04428>
shall reign
<04427> (8799)
in righteousness
<06664>_,
and princes
<08269>
shall rule
<08323> (8799)
in judgment
<04941>_.
And a man
<0376>
shall be as an hiding place
<04224>
from the wind
<07307>_,
and a covert
<05643>
from the tempest
<02230>_;
as rivers
<06388>
of water
<04325>
in a dry place
<06724>_,
as the shadow
<06738>
of a great
<03515>
rock
<05553>
in a weary
<05889>
land
<0776>_.
{great: Heb. heavy}
And the eyes
<05869>
of them that see
<07200> (8802)
shall not be dim
<08159> (8799)_,
and the ears
<0241>
of them that hear
<08085> (8802)
shall hearken
<07181> (8799)_.
The heart
<03824>
also of the rash
<04116> (8737)
shall understand
<0995> (8799)
knowledge
<01847>_,
and the tongue
<03956>
of the stammerers
<05926>
shall be ready
<04116> (8762)
to speak
<01696> (8763)
plainly
<06703>_.
{rash: Heb. hasty} {plainly: or, elegantly}
The vile person
<05036>
shall be no more called
<07121> (8735)
liberal
<05081>_,
nor the churl
<03596>
said
<0559> (8735)
[to be] bountiful
<07771>_.
For the vile person
<05036>
will speak
<01696> (8762)
villany
<05039>_,
and his heart
<03820>
will work
<06213> (8799)
iniquity
<0205>_,
to practise
<06213> (8800)
hypocrisy
<02612>_,
and to utter
<01696> (8763)
error
<08442>
against the LORD
<03068>_,
to make empty
<07324> (8687)
the soul
<05315>
of the hungry
<07457>_,
and he will cause the drink
<04945>
of the thirsty
<06771>
to fail
<02637> (8686)_.
The instruments
<03627>
also of the churl
<03596>
[are] evil
<07451>_:
he deviseth
<03289> (8804)
wicked devices
<02154>
to destroy
<02254> (8763)
the poor
<06041> (8675) <06035>
with lying
<08267>
words
<0561>_,
even when the needy
<034>
speaketh
<01696> (8763)
right
<04941>_.
{the needy...: or, he speaketh against the poor in judgment}
But the liberal
<05081>
deviseth
<03289> (8804)
liberal things
<05081>_;
and by liberal things
<05081>
shall he stand
<06965> (8799)_.
{stand: or, be established}
Rise up
<06965> (8798)_,
ye women
<0802>
that are at ease
<07600>_;
hear
<08085> (8798)
my voice
<06963>_,
ye careless
<0982> (8802)
daughters
<01323>_;
give ear
<0238> (8685)
unto my speech
<0565>_.
Many days
<03117>
and years
<08141>
shall ye be troubled
<07264> (8799)_,
ye careless women
<0982> (8802)_:
for the vintage
<01210>
shall fail
<03615> (8804)_,
the gathering
<0625>
shall not come
<0935> (8799)_.
{Many...: Heb. Days above a year}
Tremble
<02729> (8798)_,
ye women that are at ease
<07600>_;
be troubled
<07264> (8798)_,
ye careless ones
<0982> (8802)_:
strip
<06584> (8800)
you, and make you bare
<06209> (8798)_,
and gird
<02290>
[sackcloth] upon [your] loins
<02504>_.
They shall lament
<05594> (8802)
for the teats
<07699>_,
for the pleasant
<02531>
fields
<07704>_,
for the fruitful
<06509> (8802)
vine
<01612>_.
{pleasant...: Heb. fields of desire}
Upon the land
<0127>
of my people
<05971>
shall come up
<05927> (8799)
thorns
<06975>
[and] briers
<08068>_;
yea, upon all the houses
<01004>
of joy
<04885>
[in] the joyous
<05947>
city
<07151>_:
{yea...: or, burning upon}
Because the palaces
<0759>
shall be forsaken
<05203> (8795)_;
the multitude
<01995>
of the city
<05892>
shall be left
<05800> (8795)_;
the forts
<06076>
and towers
<0975>
shall be for dens
<04631>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
a joy
<04885>
of wild asses
<06501>_,
a pasture
<04829>
of flocks
<05739>_;
{forts...: or, clifts and watchtowers}
Until the spirit
<07307>
be poured
<06168> (8735)
upon us from on high
<04791>_,
and the wilderness
<04057>
be a fruitful field
<03759>_,
and the fruitful field
<03759>
be counted
<02803> (8735)
for a forest
<03293>_.
Then judgment
<04941>
shall dwell
<07931> (8804)
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
and righteousness
<06666>
remain
<03427> (8799)
in the fruitful field
<03759>_.
And the work
<04639>
of righteousness
<06666>
shall be peace
<07965>_;
and the effect
<05656>
of righteousness
<06666>
quietness
<08252> (8687)
and assurance
<0983>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
And my people
<05971>
shall dwell
<03427> (8804)
in a peaceable
<07965>
habitation
<05116>_,
and in sure
<04009>
dwellings
<04908>_,
and in quiet
<07600>
resting places
<04496>_;
When it shall hail
<01258> (8804)_,
coming down
<03381> (8800)
on the forest
<03293>_;
and the city
<05892>
shall be low
<08213> (8799)
in a low place
<08218>_.
{low in...: or, utterly abased}
Blessed
<0835>
[are] ye that sow
<02232> (8802)
beside all waters
<04325>_,
that send forth
<07971> (8764)
[thither] the feet
<07272>
of the ox
<07794>
and the ass
<02543>_.
Woe
<01945>
to thee that spoilest
<07703> (8802)_,
and thou [wast] not spoiled
<07703> (8803)_;
and dealest treacherously
<0898> (8802)_,
and they dealt not treacherously
<0898> (8804)
with thee! when thou shalt cease
<08552> (8687)
to spoil
<07703> (8802)_,
thou shalt be spoiled
<07703> (8714)_;
[and] when thou shalt make an end
<05239> (8687)
to deal treacherously
<0898> (8800)_,
they shall deal treacherously
<0898> (8799)
with thee.
O LORD
<03068>_,
be gracious
<02603> (8798)
unto us; we have waited
<06960> (8765)
for thee: be thou their arm
<02220>
every morning
<01242>_,
our salvation
<03444>
also in the time
<06256>
of trouble
<06869>_.
At the noise
<06963>
of the tumult
<01995>
the people
<05971>
fled
<05074> (8804)_;
at the lifting up
<07427>
of thyself the nations
<01471>
were scattered
<05310> (8804)_.
And your spoil
<07998>
shall be gathered
<0622> (8795)
[like] the gathering
<0625>
of the caterpiller
<02625>_:
as the running to and fro
<04944>
of locusts
<01357>
shall he run
<08264> (8802)
upon them.
The LORD
<03068>
is exalted
<07682> (8737)_;
for he dwelleth
<07931> (8802)
on high
<04791>_:
he hath filled
<04390> (8765)
Zion
<06726>
with judgment
<04941>
and righteousness
<06666>_.
And wisdom
<02451>
and knowledge
<01847>
shall be the stability
<0530>
of thy times
<06256>_,
[and] strength
<02633>
of salvation
<03444>_:
the fear
<03374>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] his treasure
<0214>_.
{salvation: Heb. salvations}
Behold, their valiant ones
<0691>
shall cry
<06817> (8804)
without
<02351>_:
the ambassadors
<04397>
of peace
<07965>
shall weep
<01058> (8799)
bitterly
<04751>_.
{valiant...: or, messengers}
The highways
<04546>
lie waste
<08074> (8738)_,
the wayfaring man
<05674> (8802) <0734>
ceaseth
<07673> (8804)_:
he hath broken
<06565> (8689)
the covenant
<01285>_,
he hath despised
<03988> (8804)
the cities
<05892>_,
he regardeth
<02803> (8804)
no man
<0582>_.
The earth
<0776>
mourneth
<056> (8804)
[and] languisheth
<0535> (8797)_:
Lebanon
<03844>
is ashamed
<02659> (8689)
[and] hewn down
<07060> (8804)_:
Sharon
<08289>
is like a wilderness
<06160>_;
and Bashan
<01316>
and Carmel
<03760>
shake off
<05287> (8802)
[their fruits]. {hewn...: or, withered away}
Now will I rise
<06965> (8799)_,
saith
<0559> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>_;
now will I be exalted
<07426> (8735)_;
now will I lift up
<05375> (8735)
myself.
Ye shall conceive
<02029> (8799)
chaff
<02842>_,
ye shall bring forth
<03205> (8799)
stubble
<07179>_:
your breath
<07307>_,
[as] fire
<0784>_,
shall devour
<0398> (8799)
you.
And the people
<05971>
shall be [as] the burnings
<04955>
of lime
<07875>_:
[as] thorns
<06975>
cut up
<03683> (8803)
shall they be burned
<03341> (8799)
in the fire
<0784>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
ye [that are] far off
<07350>_,
what I have done
<06213> (8804)_;
and, ye [that are] near
<07138>_,
acknowledge
<03045> (8798)
my might
<01369>_.
The sinners
<02400>
in Zion
<06726>
are afraid
<06342> (8804)_;
fearfulness
<07461>
hath surprised
<0270> (8804)
the hypocrites
<02611>_.
Who among us shall dwell
<01481> (8799)
with the devouring
<0398> (8802)
fire
<0784>_?
who among us shall dwell
<01481> (8799)
with everlasting
<05769>
burnings
<04168>_?
He that walketh
<01980> (8802)
righteously
<06666>_,
and speaketh
<01696> (8802)
uprightly
<04339>_;
he that despiseth
<03988> (8802)
the gain
<01215>
of oppressions
<04642>_,
that shaketh
<05287> (8802)
his hands
<03709>
from holding
<08551> (8800)
of bribes
<07810>_,
that stoppeth
<0331> (8801)
his ears
<0241>
from hearing
<08085> (8800)
of blood
<01818>_,
and shutteth
<06105> (8802)
his eyes
<05869>
from seeing
<07200> (8800)
evil
<07451>_;
{righteously: Heb. in righteousnesses} {uprightly: Heb. uprightnesses} {oppressions: or, deceits} {blood: Heb. bloods}
He shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
on high
<04791>_:
his place of defence
<04869>
[shall be] the munitions
<04679>
of rocks
<05553>_:
bread
<03899>
shall be given
<05414> (8737)
him; his waters
<04325>
[shall be] sure
<0539> (8737)_.
{high: Heb. heights, or, high places}
Thine eyes
<05869>
shall see
<02372> (8799)
the king
<04428>
in his beauty
<03308>_:
they shall behold
<07200> (8799)
the land
<0776>
that is very far off
<04801>_.
{that...: Heb. of far distances}
Thine heart
<03820>
shall meditate
<01897> (8799)
terror
<0367>_.
Where [is] the scribe
<05608> (8802)_?
where [is] the receiver
<08254> (8802)_?
where [is] he that counted
<05608> (8802)
the towers
<04026>_?
{receiver: Heb. weigher?}
Thou shalt not see
<07200> (8799)
a fierce
<03267> (8737)
people
<05971>_,
a people
<05971>
of a deeper
<06012>
speech
<08193>
than thou canst perceive
<08085> (8800)_;
of a stammering
<03932> (8737)
tongue
<03956>_,
[that thou canst] not understand
<0998>_.
{stammering: or, ridiculous}
Look
<02372> (8798)
upon Zion
<06726>_,
the city
<07151>
of our solemnities
<04150>_:
thine eyes
<05869>
shall see
<07200> (8799)
Jerusalem
<03389>
a quiet
<07600>
habitation
<05116>_,
a tabernacle
<0168>
[that] shall not be taken down
<06813> (8799)_;
not one of the stakes
<03489>
thereof shall ever
<05331>
be removed
<05265> (8799)_,
neither shall any of the cords
<02256>
thereof be broken
<05423> (8735)_.
But there the glorious
<0117>
LORD
<03068>
[will be] unto us a place
<04725>
of broad
<07342> <03027>
rivers
<05104>
[and] streams
<02975>_;
wherein shall go
<03212> (8799)
no
<01077>
galley
<0590>
with oars
<07885>_,
neither shall gallant
<0117>
ship
<06716>
pass
<05674> (8799)
thereby. {of...: Heb. broad of spaces, or, hands}
For the LORD
<03068>
[is] our judge
<08199> (8802)_,
the LORD
<03068>
[is] our lawgiver
<02710> (8781)_,
the LORD
<03068>
[is] our king
<04428>_;
he will save
<03467> (8686)
us. {lawgiver: Heb. statutemaker}
Thy tacklings
<02256>
are loosed
<05203> (8738)_;
they could not well
<03653>
strengthen
<02388> (8762)
their mast
<08650>_,
they could not spread
<06566> (8804)
the sail
<05251>_:
then is the prey
<05706>
of a great
<04766>
spoil
<07998>
divided
<02505> (8795)_;
the lame
<06455>
take
<0962> (8804)
the prey
<0957>_.
{Thy...: or, They have forsaken thy tacklings}
And the inhabitant
<07934>
shall not say
<0559> (8799)_,
I am sick
<02470> (8804)_:
the people
<05971>
that dwell
<03427> (8802)
therein [shall be] forgiven
<05375> (8803)
[their] iniquity
<05771>_.
Come near
<07126> (8798)_,
ye nations
<01471>_,
to hear
<08085> (8800)_;
and hearken
<07181> (8685)_,
ye people
<03816>_:
let the earth
<0776>
hear
<08085> (8799)_,
and all that is therein
<04393>_;
the world
<08398>_,
and all things that come forth
<06631>
of it. {all that...: Heb. the fulness thereof}
For the indignation
<07110>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] upon all nations
<01471>_,
and [his] fury
<02534>
upon all their armies
<06635>_:
he hath utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)
them, he hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
them to the slaughter
<02874>_.
Their slain
<02491>
also shall be cast out
<07993> (8714)_,
and their stink
<0889>
shall come up
<05927> (8799)
out of their carcases
<06297>_,
and the mountains
<02022>
shall be melted
<04549> (8738)
with their blood
<01818>_.
And all the host
<06635>
of heaven
<08064>
shall be dissolved
<04743> (8738)_,
and the heavens
<08064>
shall be rolled together
<01556> (8738)
as a scroll
<05612>_:
and all their host
<06635>
shall fall down
<05034> (8799)_,
as the leaf
<05929>
falleth off
<05034> (8800)
from the vine
<01612>_,
and as a falling
<05034> (8802)
[fig] from the fig tree
<08384>_.
For my sword
<02719>
shall be bathed
<07301> (8765)
in heaven
<08064>_:
behold, it shall come down
<03381> (8799)
upon Idumea
<0123>_,
and upon the people
<05971>
of my curse
<02764>_,
to judgment
<04941>_.
The sword
<02719>
of the LORD
<03068>
is filled
<04390> (8804)
with blood
<01818>_,
it is made fat
<01878> (8719)
with fatness
<02459>_,
[and] with the blood
<01818>
of lambs
<03733>
and goats
<06260>_,
with the fat
<02459>
of the kidneys
<03629>
of rams
<0352>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath a sacrifice
<02077>
in Bozrah
<01224>_,
and a great
<01419>
slaughter
<02874>
in the land
<0776>
of Idumea
<0123>_.
And the unicorns
<07214>
shall come down
<03381> (8804)
with them, and the bullocks
<06499>
with the bulls
<047>_;
and their land
<0776>
shall be soaked
<07301> (8765)
with blood
<01818>_,
and their dust
<06083>
made fat
<01878> (8792)
with fatness
<02459>_.
{unicorns: or, rhinocerots} {soaked: or, drunken}
For [it is] the day
<03117>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
vengeance
<05359>_,
[and] the year
<08141>
of recompences
<07966>
for the controversy
<07379>
of Zion
<06726>_.
And the streams
<05158>
thereof shall be turned
<02015> (8738)
into pitch
<02203>_,
and the dust
<06083>
thereof into brimstone
<01614>_,
and the land
<0776>
thereof shall become burning
<01197> (8802)
pitch
<02203>_.
It shall not be quenched
<03518> (8799)
night
<03915>
nor day
<03119>_;
the smoke
<06227>
thereof shall go up
<05927> (8799)
for ever
<05769>_:
from generation
<01755>
to generation
<01755>
it shall lie waste
<02717> (8799)_;
none shall pass through
<05674> (8802)
it for ever
<05331>
and ever
<05331>_.
But the cormorant
<06893>
and the bittern
<07090>
shall possess
<03423> (8804)
it; the owl
<03244>
also and the raven
<06158>
shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
in it: and he shall stretch out
<05186> (8804)
upon it the line
<06957>
of confusion
<08414>_,
and the stones
<068>
of emptiness
<0922>_.
{cormorant: or, pelican}
They shall call
<07121> (8799)
the nobles
<02715>
thereof to the kingdom
<04410>_,
but none [shall be] there, and all her princes
<08269>
shall be nothing
<0657>_.
And thorns
<05518>
shall come up
<05927> (8804)
in her palaces
<0759>_,
nettles
<07057>
and brambles
<02336>
in the fortresses
<04013>
thereof: and it shall be an habitation
<05116>
of dragons
<08577>_,
[and] a court
<02681>
for owls
<01323> <03284>_.
{owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
The wild beasts of the desert
<06728>
shall also meet
<06298> (8804)
with the wild beasts of the island
<0338>_,
and the satyr
<08163>
shall cry
<07121> (8799)
to his fellow
<07453>_;
the screech owl
<03917>
also shall rest
<07280> (8689)
there, and find
<04672> (8804)
for herself a place of rest
<04494>_.
{The wild...desert: Heb. Ziim} {the wild...island: Heb. Ijim} {screech...: or, night monster}
There shall the great owl
<07091>
make her nest
<07077> (8765)_,
and lay
<04422> (8762)_,
and hatch
<01234> (8804)_,
and gather
<01716> (8804)
under her shadow
<06738>_:
there shall the vultures
<01772>
also be gathered
<06908> (8738)_,
every one
<0802>
with her mate
<07468>_.
Seek ye out
<01875> (8798)
of the book
<05612>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and read
<07121> (8798)_:
no one
<0259>
of these
<02007>
shall fail
<05737> (8738)_,
none
<0802>
shall want
<06485> (8804)
her mate
<07468>_:
for my mouth
<06310>
it hath commanded
<06680> (8765)_,
and his spirit
<07307>
it hath gathered
<06908> (8765)
them.
And he hath cast
<05307> (8689)
the lot
<01486>
for them, and his hand
<03027>
hath divided
<02505> (8765)
it unto them by line
<06957>_:
they shall possess
<03423> (8799)
it for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
from generation
<01755>
to generation
<01755>
shall they dwell
<07931> (8799)
therein.
The wilderness
<04057>
and the solitary place
<06723>
shall be glad
<07797> (8799)
for them; and the desert
<06160>
shall rejoice
<01523> (8799)_,
and blossom
<06524> (8799)
as the rose
<02261>_.
It shall blossom
<06524> (8799)
abundantly
<06524> (8800)_,
and rejoice
<01523> (8799)
even with joy
<01525>
and singing
<07444> (8763)_:
the glory
<03519>
of Lebanon
<03844>
shall be given
<05414> (8738)
unto it, the excellency
<01926>
of Carmel
<03760>
and Sharon
<08289>_,
they shall see
<07200> (8799)
the glory
<03519>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[and] the excellency
<01926>
of our God
<0430>_.
Strengthen
<02388> (8761)
ye the weak
<07504>
hands
<03027>_,
and confirm
<0553> (8761)
the feeble
<03782> (8802)
knees
<01290>_.
Say
<0559> (8798)
to them [that are] of a fearful
<04116> (8737)
heart
<03820>_,
Be strong
<02388> (8798)_,
fear
<03372> (8799)
not: behold, your God
<0430>
will come
<0935> (8799)
[with] vengeance
<05359>_,
[even] God
<0430>
[with] a recompence
<01576>_;
he will come
<0935> (8799)
and save
<03467> (8686)
you. {fearful: Heb. hasty}
Then the eyes
<05869>
of the blind
<05787>
shall be opened
<06491> (8735)_,
and the ears
<0241>
of the deaf
<02795>
shall be unstopped
<06605> (8735)_.
Then shall the lame
<06455>
[man] leap
<01801> (8762)
as an hart
<0354>_,
and the tongue
<03956>
of the dumb
<0483>
sing
<07442> (8799)_:
for in the wilderness
<04057>
shall waters
<04325>
break out
<01234> (8738)_,
and streams
<05158>
in the desert
<06160>_.
And the parched ground
<08273>
shall become a pool
<098>_,
and the thirsty land
<06774>
springs
<04002>
of water
<04325>_:
in the habitation
<05116>
of dragons
<08577>_,
where each lay
<07258>_,
[shall be] grass
<02682>
with reeds
<07070>
and rushes
<01573>_.
{grass...: or, a court for reeds, etc}
And an highway
<04547>
shall be there, and a way
<01870>_,
and it shall be called
<07121> (8735)
The way
<01870>
of holiness
<06944>_;
the unclean
<02931>
shall not pass over
<05674> (8799)
it; but it [shall be] for those: the wayfaring men
<01980> (8802)_,
though fools
<0191>_,
shall not err
<08582> (8799)
[therein]. {but...: or, for he shall be with them}
No lion
<0738>
shall be there, nor [any] ravenous
<06530>
beast
<02416>
shall go up
<05927> (8799)
thereon, it shall not be found
<04672> (8735)
there; but the redeemed
<01350> (8803)
shall walk
<01980> (8804)
[there]:
And the ransomed
<06299> (8803)
of the LORD
<03068>
shall return
<07725> (8799)_,
and come
<0935> (8804)
to Zion
<06726>
with songs
<07440>
and everlasting
<05769>
joy
<08057>
upon their heads
<07218>_:
they shall obtain
<05381> (8686)
joy
<08057>
and gladness
<08342>_,
and sorrow
<03015>
and sighing
<0585>
shall flee away
<05127> (8804)_.
