Isaiah 31:4-9

31:4

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}

31:5

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.

31:6

Turn
<07725> (8798)

ye unto [him from] whom the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

have deeply
<06009> (8689)

revolted
<05627>_.

31:7

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}

31:8

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}

31:9

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}
