When [fn]the time H3117 for Israel H3478 to die H4191 drew H7126 near H7126, he called H7121 his son H1121 Joseph H3130 and said H559 to him, “Please H4994, if H518 I have found H4672 favor H2580 in your sight H5869, place H7760 your hand H3027 under H8478 my thigh H3409 now H4994 and deal H6213 with me in kindness H2617 and [fn]faithfulness H571: please H4994 do not bury H6912 me in Egypt H4714,
“The blessings H1293 of your father H1
Have surpassed H1396 the blessings H1293 of my ancestors H2029
Up to the [fn]furthest H8379 boundary H8379 of the everlasting H5769 hills H1389;
May they be on the head H7218 of Joseph H3130,
And on the top H6936 of H6936 the H6936 head H6936 of the one H5139 distinguished H5139 among his brothers H251.
Now the LORD H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “One H259 more H5750 plague H5061 I will bring H935 on Pharaoh H6547 and on Egypt H4714; after H310 that he will let H7971 you go H7971 from here H2088. When he lets H7971 you go H7971, he will assuredly H1644 drive H1644 you out H1644 from here H2088 completely H3605.
For the horses H5483 of Pharaoh H6547 with his chariots H7393 and his horsemen H6571 went H935 into the sea H3220, and the LORD H3068 brought H7725 back H7725 the waters H4325 of the sea H3220 on them, but the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 walked H1980 on dry H3004 land H3004 through the midst H8432 of the sea H3220.
So it came H1961 about H1961 on the third H7992 day H3117, when it was morning H1242, that there were [fn]thunder H6963 and lightning H1300 flashes H1300 and a thick H3515 cloud H6051 over the mountain H2022 and a very H3966 loud H2389 trumpet H7782 sound H6963, so that all H3605 the people H5971 who H834 were in the camp H4264 trembled H2729.
“You shall also take H3947 the fat H2459 from the ram H352 and the fat H451 tail H451, and the fat H2459 that covers H3680 the entrails H7130 and the [fn]lobe H3508 of the liver H3516, and the two H8147 kidneys H3629 and the fat H2459 that is on them, and the right H3225 thigh H7785 (for it is a ram H352 of [fn]ordination H4394),
‘But if H518 his [fn]means H3027 are H5381 insufficient H3808 H5381 for two H8147 turtledoves H8449 or H176 two H8147 young H1121 doves H3123, then for his offering H7133 for that which H834 he has sinned H2398, he shall bring H935 the tenth H6224 of an [fn]ephah H374 of fine H5560 flour H5560 as a sin H2403 offering H2403; he shall not put H7760 oil H8081 on it or place H5414 incense H3828 on it, for it is a sin H2403 offering H2403.
Now Nadab H5070 and Abihu H30, the sons H1121 of Aaron H175, took H3947 their respective H376 firepans H4289, and after putting H5414 fire H784 in them, placed H7760 incense H7004 on [fn]the fire and offered H7126 [fn]strange H2114 fire H784 before H6440 the LORD H3068, which H834 He had not commanded H6680 them.
But two H8147 men H376 had remained H7604 in the camp H4264; the name H8034 of the one H259 was Eldad H419, and the name H8034 of the [fn]other H8145, Medad H4312. And the Spirit H7307 rested H5117 upon them (and they were among those who had been registered H3789, but had not gone H3318 out H3318 to the tent H168), and they prophesied H5012 in the camp H4264.
Then they came H935 to the [fn]Valley H5158 of [fn]Eshcol H812, and from there H8033 they cut H3772 off H3772 a branch H2156 with a single H259 cluster H811 of grapes H6025; and they carried H5375 it on a pole H4132 between two H8147 men, with some H4480 of the pomegranates H7416 and the figs H8384.
‘But the person H376 who H834 is H2930 unclean H2930 and does not purify H2398 himself, that person H5315 shall be cut H3772 off H3772 from the midst H8432 of the assembly H6951, because H3588 he has defiled H2930 the sanctuary H4720 of the LORD H3068; the water H4325 for impurity H5079 has not been sprinkled H2236 on him, so he is unclean H2931.
“When H3588 you besiege H6696 a city H5892 for a long H7227 time H3117, to make H3898 war H3898 against H5921 it in order to capture H8610 it, you shall not destroy H7843 its trees H6086 by swinging H5080 an axe H1631 against H5921 them; for you may eat H398 from them, so you shall not cut H3772 them down H3772. For [fn]is the tree H6086 of the field H7704 a human H120, that it should [fn]be besieged H4692 by you?
“Now the future H314 generation H1755, your sons H1121 who H834 rise H6965 up H6965 after H4480 H310 you and the foreigner H5237 who H834 comes H935 from a distant H7350 land H776, when they see H7200 the plagues H4347 of that land H776 and the diseases H8463 with which H834 the LORD H3068 has afflicted H2470 it, will say H559,
‘They have made H7065 Me jealous H7065 with what is not God H410;
They have provoked H3707 Me to H3707 anger H3707 with their [fn]idols H1892.
So I will make H7065 them jealous H7065 with those who are not a people H5971;
I will provoke H3707 them to H3707 anger H3707 with a foolish H5036 nation H1471,
“As the firstborn H1060 of his ox H7794, majesty H1926 is his,
And his horns H7161 are the horns H7161 of the wild H7214 ox H7214;
With them he will gore H5055 the peoples H5971
All H3162 [fn]at H3162 once H3162, to the ends H657 of the earth H776.
And those H1992 are the ten H7233 thousands H7233 of Ephraim H669,
Now on the same H1931 night H3915 the LORD H3068 said H559 to him, “Take H3947 your father's H1 bull H6499 H7794 [fn]and a second H8145 bull H6499 seven H7651 years H8141 old, and tear H2040 down H2040 the altar H4196 of Baal H1168 which H834 belongs to your father H1, and cut H3772 down H3772 the [fn]Asherah H842 that is beside H5921 it;
When the people H376 of the city H5892 got H7925 up H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242, behold H2009, the altar H4196 of Baal H1168 had been torn H5422 down H5422, and the Asherah H842 which H834 had been beside H5921 it had been cut H3772 down H3772, and the second H8145 bull H6499 had been offered H5927 on the altar H4196 which had been built H1129.
Then the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 rushed H6743 upon H5921 him, and he went H3381 down H3381 to Ashkelon H831 and killed H5221 thirty H7970 men H376 of them and took H3947 what H2488 they were wearing H2488 and gave H5414 the outfits H2487 of H2487 clothes H2487 to those who told H5046 the riddle H2420. And his anger H639 burned H2734, and he went H5927 up H5927 to his father's H1 house H1004.
When he came H935 to Lehi H3896, the Philistines H6430 shouted H7321 as they met H7122 him. And the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 rushed H6743 upon H5921 him so that the ropes H5688 that were on his arms H2220 were like flax H6593 that has burned H1197 with fire H784, and his restraints H612 [fn]dropped H4549 from his hands H3027.
Now his daughter-in-law H3618, Phinehas' H6372 wife H802, was pregnant H2030 and about to give H3205 birth H3205; and when she heard H8085 the news H8052 that the ark H727 of God H430 had been taken H3947 and that her father-in-law H2524 and her husband H376 had died H4191, she kneeled H3766 down H3766 and gave H3205 birth H3205, because H3588 her pains H6735 came H2015 upon her.
Then Abigail H26 came H935 to Nabal H5037, and behold H2009, he was having a feast H4960 in his house H1004, like the feast H4960 of a king H4428. And Nabal's H5037 heart H3820 was cheerful H2895 within H5921 him, for he was very H5704 H3966 drunk H7910; so she did not tell H5046 him anything H1697 [fn]at all H6996 H1419 until H5704 the morning H1242 light H216.
Now when David H1732 had gone H5674 on H5674 a little H4592 beyond H4480 the summit H7218, behold H2009, Ziba H6717 the servant H5288 of Mephibosheth H4648 met H7122 him with a team H6776 of saddled H2280 donkeys H2543, and on them were two H3967 hundred H3967 loaves of bread H3899, a hundred H3967 cakes H6778 of H6778 raisins H6778, a hundred H3967 summer H7019 fruits H7019, and a jug H5035 of wine H3196.
And Rizpah H7532 the daughter H1323 of Aiah H345 took H3947 sackcloth H8242 and spread H5186 it out H5186 for herself on the rock H6697, from the beginning H8462 of harvest H7105 until H5704 [fn]it rained H5413 on them from the sky H8064; and she [fn]allowed H5414 neither H3808 the birds H5775 of the sky H8064 to rest H5117 on them by day H3119 nor H3808 the wild H7704 animals H2416 by night H3915.
“When H3588 they sin H2398 against You (for there H369 is H369 no H369 person H120 who H834 does not sin H2398) and You are angry H599 with them and turn H5414 them over H5414 to an enemy H340, so that [fn]they take H7617 them away H7617 captive H7617 to the land H776 of the enemy H340, distant H7350 or H176 near H7138;
So he departed H1980 from there H8033 and found H4672 Elisha H477 the son H1121 of Shaphat H8202 while he was plowing H2790, with twelve H8147 H6240 yoke H6776 of oxen in front H6440 of him, and he with the twelfth H8147 H6240. And Elijah H452 came H5674 over H5674 to him and threw H7993 his cloak H155 on him.
So Ahaz H271 sent H7971 messengers H4397 to Tiglath-pileser H8407 king H4428 of Assyria H804, saying H559, “I am your servant H5650 and your son H1121; come H5927 up H5927 and save H3467 me from the [fn]hand H3709 of the king H4428 of Aram H758, and from the [fn]hand H3709 of the king H4428 of Israel H3478, who are rising H6965 up H6965 against H5921 me.”
Now in the ninth H8671 year H8141 of his reign H4427, on the tenth H6218 day of the tenth H6224 month H2320, Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 came H935, he and all H3605 his army H2428, against H5921 Jerusalem H3389, camped H2583 against H5921 it, and built H1129 a siege H1785 wall H1785 all H5439 around H5439 [fn]it.
Then the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 made H4427 [fn]Ahaziah H274, his youngest H6996 son H1121, king H4427 in H8478 his place H8478, for the band H1416 of H1416 men H1416 who came H935 with the Arabs H6163 to the camp H4264 had killed H2026 all H3605 the older H7223 sons. So Ahaziah H274 the son H1121 of Jehoram H3088 king H4428 of Judah H3063 began to reign H4427.
Now it happened H1961 at the turn H8622 of the year H8141 that the army H2428 of the Arameans H758 came H5927 up H5927 against H5921 Joash; and they came H935 to Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389, destroyed H7843 all H3605 the officials H8269 of the people H5971 from among the people H5971, and sent H7971 all H3605 their spoils H7998 to the king H4428 of Damascus H1834.
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Manasseh H4519 and his prayer H8605 to his God H430, and the words H1697 of the seers H2374 who spoke H1696 to him in the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478, behold H2009, they are among H5921 the records H1697 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478.
“This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539 says H559: ‘The LORD H3068, the God H430 of heaven H8064, has given H5414 me all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776, and He has appointed H6485 me to rebuild H1129 for Him a house H1004 in Jerusalem H3389, which H834 is in Judah H3063.
At that time H2166 Tattenai H8674, the governor H6347 of the province beyond H5675 the Euphrates River H5103, and Shethar-bozenai H8370 and their colleagues H3675 came H858 to them and spoke H560 to them as H3652 follows H3652: “Who H4479 issued H7761 you a decree H2942 to rebuild H1124 this H1836 [fn]temple H1005 and to finish H3635 this H1836 structure H846?”
“Then You performed H5414 signs H226 and wonders H4159 against Pharaoh H6547,
Against all H3605 his servants H5650 and all H3605 the people H5971 of his land H776;
For You knew H3045 that they acted H2102 arrogantly H2102 toward H5921 them,
And You made H6213 a name H8034 for Yourself as it is this H2088 day H3117.
I remember H2142 these H428 things H428 and pour H8210 out H8210 my soul H5315 within H5921 me.
For I used to go H5674 over H5674 with the multitude H5519 and walk H1718 them to the house H1004 of God H430,
With a voice H6963 of joy H7440 and thanksgiving H8426, a multitude H1995 celebrating H2287 a H2287 festival H2287.
If H518 you see H7200 oppression H6233 of the poor H7326 and denial H1498 of justice H4941 and righteousness H6664 in the province H4082, do not be H8539 shocked H8539 at the [fn]sight H2656; for one [fn]official H1364 watches H8104 over H4480 H5921 another [fn]official H1364, and there are higher H1364 [fn]officials H1364 over H5921 them.
And He will judge H8199 between H996 the nations H1471,
And will mediate H3198 for many H7227 peoples H5971;
And they will beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855, and their spears H2595 into pruning H4211 knives H4211.
Nation H1471 will not lift H5375 up H5375 a sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471,
And never H3808 again H5750 will they learn H3925 war H4421.
For this H3651 reason H3651 the anger H639 of the LORD H3068 has burned H2734 against His people H5971,
And He has stretched H5186 out H5186 His hand H3027 against H5921 them and struck H5221 them.
And the mountains H2022 quaked H7264, and their corpses H5038 [fn]lay H1961 like refuse H5478 in the middle H7130 of the streets H2351.
Despite all H3605 this H2088, His anger H639 [fn]is H7725 not spent H7725,
But His hand H3027 is still H5750 stretched H5186 out H5186.
Yet gleanings H5955 will be left H7604 in it like the [fn]shaking H5363 of an olive H2132 tree H2132,
Two H8147 or three H7969 olives H1620 on the topmost H7218 H534 branch H534,
Four H702 or five H2568 on the branches H5585 of a fruitful H6509 tree H6509,
Declares H5002 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478.
They will be left H5800 together H3162 for mountain H2022 birds H5861 of H5861 prey H5861,
And for the animals H929 of the earth H776;
And the birds H5861 of H5861 prey H5861 will spend H6972 the H6972 summer H6972 feeding on them,
And all H3605 the animals H929 of the earth H776 will spend H2778 harvest H2778 time H2778 on them.
A harsh H7186 vision H2380 has been shown H5046 to me;
The treacherous H898 one still deals H898 treacherously H898, and the destroyer H7703 still destroys H7703.
Go H5927 up H5927, Elam H5867, lay H6696 siege H6696, Media H4074;
I have put H7673 an H7673 end H7673 to H7673 all H3605 [fn]the groaning H603 she has caused.
And the fading H5034 flower H6731 of its glorious H6643 beauty H6643,
Which H834 is at the head H7218 of the [fn]fertile H8081 valley H1516,
Will be like the first-ripe H1063 fig H1063 prior H2962 to the summer H7019,
Which H834 [fn]one sees H7200,
And [fn]as soon H5750 as it is in his [fn]hand H3709,
He swallows H1104 it.
So the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 to them will be,
“[fn]Order H6673 on order H6673, order H6673 on order H6673,
Line H6957 on line H6957, line H6957 on line H6957,
A little H2191 here H8033, a little H2191 there H8033,”
That they may go H1980 and stumble H3782 backward H268, be broken H7665, snared H3369, and taken H3920 captive H3920.
Therefore H3651 this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559:
“Behold H2009, I am laying H3245 a stone H68 in Zion H6726, a tested H976 stone H68,
A precious H3368 cornerstone H6438 for the foundation H4143, [fn]firmly H3245 placed H3245.
The one who believes H539 in it will not be [fn]disturbed H2363.
The pronouncement H4853 concerning the animals H929 of the Negev H5045:
Through a land H776 of distress H6869 and anguish H6695,
From [fn]where H1992 come lioness H3833 and lion H3918, viper H660 and flying H5774 serpent H8314,
They carry H5375 their riches H2428 on the [fn]backs H3802 of young H5895 donkeys H5895,
Now the Egyptians H4714 are human H120 and not God H410,
And their horses H5483 are flesh H1320 and not spirit H7307;
So the LORD H3068 will stretch H5186 out H5186 His hand H3027,
And any helper H5826 will stumble H3782,
And one who is helped H5826 will fall H5307.
And all H3605 of them will come H3615 to H3615 an H3615 end H3615 together H3162.
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559 to me:
“As the lion H738 or the young H3715 lion H3715 growls H1897 over H5921 his prey H2964,
Against H5921 which H834 a band H4393 of shepherds H7462 is called H7121 out H7121,
And he will not be terrified H2865 at their voice H6963 nor H3808 disturbed H6031 at their noise H1995,
So H3651 will the LORD H3068 of armies H6635 come H3381 down H3381 to wage H6633 war H6633 on Mount H2022 Zion H6726 and on its hill H1389.”
“Therefore H3651, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559 about H413 the king H4428 of Assyria H804: ‘He will not come H935 to this H2088 city H5892 nor H3808 shoot H3384 an arrow H2671 there H8033; and he will not come H6923 before H6923 it with a shield H4043, nor H3808 heap H8210 up H8210 an assault H5550 ramp H5550 against H5921 it.
Go H5927 up H5927 on a high H1364 mountain H2022,
Zion H6726, messenger H1319 of H1319 good H1319 news H1319,
Raise H7311 your voice H6963 forcefully H3581,
Jerusalem H3389, messenger H1319 of H1319 good H1319 news H1319;
Raise H7311 it up H7311, do not fear H3372.
[fn]Scarcely H1077 H637 have they been planted H5193,
[fn]Scarcely H1077 H637 have they been sown H2232,
[fn]Scarcely H1077 H637 has their stock H1503 taken H8327 root H8327 in the earth H776,
But He merely H1571 blows H5398 on them, and they wither H3001,
And the storm H5591 carries H5375 them away like stubble H7179.
Raise H5375 your eyes H5869 on high H4791
And see H7200 who H4310 has created H1254 these H428 stars,
The One who brings H3318 out H3318 their [fn]multitude H6635 by number H4557,
He calls H7121 them all H3605 by name H8034;
Because H4480 of the greatness H7230 of His might H202 and the [fn]strength H533 of His power H3581,
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559:
“Behold H2009, I will lift H5375 up H5375 My hand H3027 to the nations H1471
And set H7311 up H7311 My flag H5251 to the peoples H5971;
And they will bring H935 your sons H1121 [fn]in their arms H2684,
And your daughters H1323 will be carried H5375 on their shoulders H3802.
“If H518, because H4480 of the Sabbath H7676, you restrain H7725 your foot H7272
From doing H6213 as you wish H2656 on My holy H6944 day H3117,
And call H7121 the Sabbath H7676 a pleasure H6027, and the holy H6918 day of the LORD H3068 honorable H3513,
And honor H3513 it, desisting H6213 H4480 from your own ways H1870,
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: “Behold H2009, I extend H5186 peace H7965 to her like a river H5104,
And the glory H3519 of the nations H1471 like an overflowing H7857 stream H5158;
And you will [fn]be nursed H3243, you will be carried H5375 on the [fn]hip H6654 and rocked H8173 back H8173 and H8173 forth H8173 on the knees H1290.
“They will devour H398 your harvest H7105 and your food H3899;
They will devour H398 your sons H1121 and your daughters H1323;
They will devour H398 your flocks H6629 and your herds H1241;
They will devour H398 your vines H1612 and your fig H8384 trees H8384;
They will demolish H7567 your fortified H4013 cities H5892, in which H834 you trust H982, with the sword H2719.
But I was like a gentle H441 lamb H3532 led H2986 to the slaughter H2873;
And I did not know H3045 that they had devised H2803 plots H4284 against H5921 me, saying,
“Let's destroy H7843 the tree H6086 with its [fn]fruit H3899,
And let's cut H3772 him off H3772 from the land H776 of the living H2416,
So that his name H8034 will no H3808 longer H5750 be remembered H2142.”
“Therefore you shall prophesy H5012 against H413 them all H3605 these H428 words H1697, and you shall say H559 to them,
‘The LORD H3068 will roar H7580 from on high H4791
And raise H5414 His voice H6963 from His holy H6944 dwelling H4583;
He will roar H7580 forcefully H7580 against H5921 His [fn]fold H5116.
He will shout H1959 like those who tread H1869 the grapes,
Against H413 all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of the earth H776.
“Did Hezekiah H2396 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and all H3605 Judah H3063 actually H4191 put H4191 him to H4191 death H4191? Did he not fear H3372 the LORD H3068 and plead H2470 for H2470 the favor H6440 of the LORD H3068, and the LORD H3068 relented H5162 of the disaster H7451 which H834 He had pronounced H1696 against H5921 them? But we are committing H6213 a great H1419 evil H7451 against H5921 our own lives H5315!”
‘[fn]Their leader H117 shall be one of them,
And [fn]their ruler H4910 will come H3318 out H3318 from [fn]their midst H7130;
And I will bring H7126 him near H7126 and he shall approach H5066 Me;
For [fn]who H4310 would dare H6148 to H6148 risk H6148 his life H3820 to approach H5066 Me?' declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
“They will come H935 and shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442 on the height H4791 of Zion H6726,
And they will be radiant H5102 over H413 the [fn]bounty H2898 of the LORD H3068—
Over H5921 the grain H1715, the new H8492 wine H8492, the oil H3323,
And over H5921 the young H1121 of the flock H6629 and the herd H1241.
And their life H5315 will be like a watered H7302 garden H1588,
“Is Ephraim H669 My dear H3357 son H1121?
Is he a delightful H8191 child H3206?
Indeed H3588, as often H1767 as I have spoken H1696 against him,
I certainly H2142 still remember H2142 him;
Therefore H5921 H3651 My [fn]heart H4578 yearns H1993 for him;
I will certainly H7355 have H7355 mercy H7355 on H7355 him,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
Then Jeremiah H3414 took H3947 another H312 scroll H4039 and gave H5414 it to the scribe H5608 Baruch H1263 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374, and he wrote H3789 on it at the [fn]dictation H6310 of Jeremiah H3414 all H3605 the words H1697 of the book H5612 which H834 Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 of Judah H3063 had burned H8313 in the fire H784; and many H7227 [fn]similar words H1697 were added H3254 to them.
Therefore H3651 hear H8085 the plan H6098 of the LORD H3068 which H834 He has planned H3289 against H413 Edom H123, and His purposes H4284 which H834 He has H2803 in H2803 mind H2803 against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Teman H8487: they will certainly H518 H3808 drag H5498 them off H5498, even the little H6810 ones H6810 of the flock H6629; He will certainly H518 H3808 make H8074 their pasture H5116 desolate H8074 because H5921 of them.
“For a nation H1471 has come H5927 up H5927 against H5921 her from the north H6828; it will make H7896 her land H776 an object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047, and there will be no H3808 inhabitant H3427 in it. Whether H4480 people H120 or H5704 animals H929, they have wandered H5110 off H5110, they have gone H1980!
“Raise H7321 your battle H7321 cry H7321 against H5921 her on every H5439 side H5439!
She has given H5414 [fn]herself H3027 up H5414, her towers H803 have fallen H5307,
Her walls H2346 have been torn H2040 down H2040.
For this H1931 is the vengeance H5360 of the LORD H3068:
“Against H5921 the land H776 of [fn]Merathaim H4850, go H5927 up H5927 against H5921 it,
And against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of [fn]Pekod H6489.
Kill H2717 and [fn]completely H2763 destroy H2763 them,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068,
“And do H6213 according to everything H3605 that I have commanded H6680 you.
“Summon H8085 [fn]many H7227 against H413 Babylon H894,
All H3605 those who [fn]bend H1869 the bow H7198:
Encamp H2583 against H5921 her on every H5439 side H5439,
Let there be no H408 escape H6413[fn].
Repay H7999 her according to her work H6467;
According to all H3605 that she has done H6213, so do H6213 to her;
For she has become H2102 arrogant H2102 against H413 the LORD H3068,
“Behold H2009, one will come H5927 up H5927 like a lion H738 from the thicket H1347 of the Jordan H3383 to a perennially H386 watered pasture H5116; for in an instant H7280 I will chase H7323 them away H4480 from it, and I will appoint H6485 over H413 it whoever H4310 is chosen H977. For who H4310 is like H3644 Me, and who H4310 will summon H3259 Me into court? And who H4310 then H2088 is the shepherd H7462 who H834 can stand H5975 against H6440 Me?”
Lift H5375 up H5375 a signal H5251 flag H5251 in the land H776,
Blow H8628 a trumpet H7782 among the nations H1471!
Consecrate H6942 the nations H1471 against H5921 her,
Summon H8085 against H5921 her the kingdoms H4467 of Ararat H780, Minni H4508, and Ashkenaz H813;
Appoint H6485 an officer H2951 against H5921 her,
Bring H5927 up H5927 the horses H5483 like bristly H5569 locusts H3218.
“Arise H6965, whimper H7442 in the night H3915
At the beginning H7218 of the night watches H821;
Pour H8210 out H8210 your heart H3820 like water H4325
Before H5227 the presence H6440 of the Lord H136;
Raise H5375 your hands H3709 to Him
For the life H5315 of your little H5768 ones H5768
Now above H4480 H4605 the expanse H7549 that was over H5921 their heads H7218 there was something H1823 resembling H1823 a throne H3678, like [fn]lapis H68 H5601 lazuli H68 H5601 in appearance H4758; and on that which H1823 resembled H1823 a throne H3678, high H4480 H4605 up, was a figure H1823 with the appearance H4758 of a man H120.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 in the sixth H8345 year H8141, on the fifth H2568 day of the sixth H8345 month H2320, as I was sitting H3427 in my house H1004 with the elders H2205 of Judah H3063 sitting H3427 before H6440 me, that the hand H3027 of the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 fell H5307 upon me there H8033.
Then I did H6213 so H3651, just H834 as H834 I had been commanded H6680. By day H3119 I brought H3318 out H3318 my baggage H3627 like the baggage H3627 of an exile H1473. Then in the evening H6153 I dug H2864 through the wall H7023 with my hands H3027; I went H3318 out H3318 in the dark H5939 and carried H5375 the baggage on my shoulder H3802 in their sight H5869.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “I will also take H3947 a sprig from the lofty H7311 top H6788 of the cedar H730 and [fn]set H5414 it out; I will break H6998 off H6998 from the topmost H7218 of its young H3127 twigs H3127 a tender H7390 one H7390, and I will plant H8362 it on a high H1364 and lofty H8524 mountain H2022.
“Then I [fn]resolved H559 to pour H8210 out H8210 My wrath H2534 on them, to [fn]use H3615 up H3615 My anger H639 against them in the midst H8432 of the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “On the day H3117 when it went H3381 down H3381 to Sheol H7585 I caused H56 mourning H56; I closed H3680 the [fn]deep H8415 over H5921 it and held H4513 back H4513 its rivers H5104. And its many H7227 waters H4325 were stopped H3607 up H3607, and I made Lebanon H3844 mourn H6937 for it, and all H3605 the trees H6086 of the field H7704 wilted H5968 away H5968 on H5921 account H5921 of H5921 it.
‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “Are you the one H1931 of whom H834 I spoke H1696 in former H6931 days H3117 through H3027 My servants H5650 the prophets H5030 of Israel H3478, who prophesied H5012 in those H1992 days H3117 for many years H8141 that I would bring H935 you against H5921 them?
In the twenty-fifth H6242 H2568 year H8141 of our exile H1546, at the beginning H7218 of the year H8141, on the tenth H6218 of the month H2320, in the fourteenth H702 H6240 year H8141 after H310 the city H5892 was [fn]taken H5221, on this H2088 very H6106 day H3117 the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 was upon me and He brought H935 me there H8033.
Nebuchadnezzar H5020 responded H6032 and said H560, “Blessed H1289 be the God H426 of Shadrach H7715, Meshach H4336, and Abed-nego H5665, who H1768 has sent H7972 His angel H4398 and rescued H7804 His servants H5649 who H1768 put H7365 their trust H7365 in Him, [fn]violating H8133 the king's H4430 command H4406, and surrendered H3052 their bodies H1655 rather H1768 H3809 than H3809 serve H6399 or worship H5457 any H3606 god H426 except H3861 their own God H426.
“This sentence H6600 is by the decree H1510 of the angelic H5894 watchers H5894,
And the decision H7595 is a command H3983 of the holy H6922 ones H6922,
In order H5705 H1701 that the living H2417 may know H3046
That the Most H5943 High H5943 is ruler H7990 over the realm H4437 of mankind H606,
And He grants H5415 it to whomever H1768 H4479 He wishes H6634
And sets H6966 over H5922 it the lowliest H8215 of people H606.”
“But at the end H7118 of [fn]that period H3118, I, Nebuchadnezzar H5020, raised H5191 my eyes H5870 toward heaven H8065 and my [fn]reason H4486 returned H8421 to me, and I blessed H1289 the Most H5943 High H5943 and praised H7624 and honored H1922 Him who H2417 lives H2417 forever H5957;
For His dominion H7985 is an everlasting H5957 dominion H7985,
And His kingdom H4437 endures from generation H1859 to generation H1859.
“At that time H2166 my [fn]reason H4486 returned H8421 to me. And my majesty H1923 and splendor H2122 were [fn]restored H8421 to me for the honor H3367 of my kingdom H4437, and my state H1907 counselors H1907 and my nobles H7261 began seeking H1156 me out H1156; so I was reestablished H8627 in my [fn]sovereignty H4437, and surpassing H3493 greatness H7238 was added H3255 to me.
“And at the end H7093 time H6256 the king H4428 of the South H5045 will wage H5055 war H5055 with him, and the king H4428 of the North H6828 will storm H8175 against H5921 him with chariots H7393, horsemen H6571, and with many H7227 ships H591; and he will enter H935 countries H776, overflow H7857 them, and pass H5674 through H5674.
Though H3588 he flourishes H6509 among H996 the [fn]reeds H260,
An east H6921 wind H6921 will come H935,
The wind H7307 of the LORD H3068 coming H5927 up H5927 from the wilderness H4057;
And his fountain H4726 will become H3001 dry H3001
And his spring H4599 will dry H2717 up H2717;
It will plunder H8154 his treasury H214 of every H3605 precious H2532 article H3627.
“Moreover H1571, what H4100 are you to Me, Tyre H6865, Sidon H6721, and all H3605 the regions H1552 of Philistia H6429? Are you repaying H7999 Me with retribution H1576? But if H518 you are showing H1580 Me retribution, swiftly H7031 and speedily H4120 I will return H7725 your retribution H1576 on your head H7218!
“Furthermore H1571, I withheld H4513 the rain H1653 from you
While there were still H5750 three H7969 months H2320 until harvest H7105.
Then I would send H4305 rain H4305 on one H259 city H5892,
But on another H259 city H5892 I would not send H4305 rain H4305;
One H259 part H2513 would be rained H4305 on,
While the part H2513 not rained H4305 on would dry H3001 up H3001.
The vision H2377 of Obadiah H5662.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559 concerning Edom H123—
We have heard H8085 a report H8052 from the LORD H3068,
And a messenger H6735 has been sent H7971 among the nations H1471 saying,
“Arise H6965, and let's go H6965 up H6965 against H5921 her for battle H4421”—
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559 concerning H5921 the prophets H5030 who lead H8582 my people H5971 astray H8582:
When they have something to bite H5391 with their teeth H8127,
They cry H7121 out H7121, “Peace H7965!”
But against H5921 him who H834 puts H5414 nothing H3808 in their mouths H6310
And He will judge H8199 between H996 many H7227 peoples H5971
And render H3198 decisions H3198 for mighty H6099, [fn]distant H7350 nations H1471.
Then they will beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855,
And their spears H2595 into pruning H4211 hooks H4211;
Nation H1471 will not lift H5375 a sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471,
And never H3808 again H5750 will they [fn]train H3925 for war H4421.
Yet H1571 she became an exile H1473,
She went H1980 into captivity H7628;
Also H1571 her small children H5768 were smashed H7376 to H7376 pieces H7376
At the head H7218 of every H3605 street H2351;
They cast H3032 lots H1486 for her honorable H3513 men H3513,
And all H3605 her great H1419 men H1419 were bound H7576 with shackles H2131.
This H2088 is the presumptuous H5947 city H5892
That dwells H3427 securely H983,
Who says H559 in her heart H3824,
“I am, and there H657 is no H657 one H657 besides H5750 me.”
How H349 she has become H1961 a desolation H8047,
A resting H4769 place H4769 for animals H2416!
“I said H559, ‘You will certainly H389 revere H3372 Me,
You will accept H3947 discipline H4148.'
So her dwelling H4583 will not be eliminated H3772
In accordance with everything H3605 that I have stipulated H6485 for her.
Instead, they were H7925 eager H7925 to corrupt H7843 all H3605 their deeds H5949.
“Therefore H3651 wait H2442 for Me,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068,
“For the day H3117 when I rise H6965 up H6965 as a witness H5707.
Indeed H3588, My decision H4941 is to gather H622 nations H1471,
To assemble H6908 kingdoms H4467,
To pour H8210 out H8210 on them My indignation H2195,
All H3605 My burning H2740 anger H639;
“And I will pour H8210 out H8210 on the house H1004 of David H1732 and on the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 [fn]the Spirit H7307 of grace H2580 and of pleading H8469, so that they will look H5027 at Me whom H834 they pierced H1856; and they will mourn H5594 for Him, like one mourning H5594 for an only H3173 son H3173, and they will weep H4843 bitterly H4843 over H5921 Him like the bitter H4843 weeping H4843 over H5921 a firstborn H1060.
“Awake H5782, sword H2719, against H5921 My Shepherd H7462,
And against H5921 the Man H1397, My Associate H5997,”
Declares H5002 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635.
“Strike H5221 the Shepherd H7462 and the sheep H6629 will be scattered H6327;
And I will turn H7725 My hand H3027 [fn]against H5921 the little H6819 ones.
