Then Isaac H3327 dug H2658 again H7725 the wells H875 of water H4325 which H834 [fn]had been dug H2658 in the days H3117 of his father H1 Abraham H85, but the Philistines H6430 had stopped H5640 them up H5640 after H310 the death H4194 of Abraham H85; and he [fn]called H7121 them by the same H8034 names H8034 by which H834 his father H1 had called H7121 them.
Then Esau H6215 took H3947 his wives H802 and his sons H1121 and his daughters H1323 and all H3605 [fn]his household H1004, and his livestock H4735 and all H3605 his cattle H929 and all H3605 his acquired H7075 goods H7075, which H834 he had accumulated H7408 in the land H776 of Canaan H3667, and he went H1980 to a land H776 away from his brother H251 Jacob H3290.
Joseph H3130, when seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 of age H1121, was pasturing H7462 the flock H6629 with his brothers H251 while he was still a youth H5288, along with the sons H1121 of Bilhah H1090 and the sons H1121 of Zilpah H2153, his father's H1 wives H802. And Joseph H3130 brought H935 back an evil H1681 H7451 report H1681 about them to their father H1.
And Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “When you go H1980 to return H7725 to Egypt H4714, see H7200 to it that all H3605 the miraculous H4159 wonders H4159 which H834 I have put H7760 in your hand H3027, that you do H6213 them before H6440 Pharaoh H6547; but as for Me, I will [fn]harden H2388 his heart H3820 with strength H2388 so that he will not let H7971 the people H5971 go H7971.
Now Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Stretch H5186 out H5186 your hand H3027 toward H5921 the sky H8064, that there may be H1961 hail H1259 on all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714, on man H120 and on beast H929 and on every H3605 plant H6212 of the field H7704, throughout the land H776 of Egypt H4714.”
“If H3588 a man H376 lets a field H7704 or H176 vineyard H3754 be grazed H1197 bare and lets H7971 his animal H1165 loose H7971 so that it grazes H1197 in another H312 man's field H7704, he shall make H7999 restitution H7999 from the best H4315 of his own field H7704 and the best H4315 of his own vineyard H3754.
Then Moses H4872 came H935 and recounted H5608 to the people H5971 all H3605 the words H1697 of Yahweh H3068 and all H3605 the judgments H4941; and all H3605 the people H5971 answered H6030 with one H259 voice H6963 and said H559, “All H3605 the words H1697 which H834 Yahweh H3068 has spoken H1696 we will do H6213!”
Then [fn]God said H559, “Behold H2009, I am going to cut H3772 a covenant H1285. Before H5048 all H3605 your people H5971 I will do H6213 wondrous H6381 deeds H6381 which H834 have not been created H1254 in all H3605 the earth H776 nor H3808 among any H3605 of the nations H1471; and all H3605 the people H5971 [fn]among H7130 whom H834 you live will see H7200 the working H4639 of Yahweh H3068, for it is a fearful H3372 thing H3372 that I am going to do H6213 with you.
“Now Bezalel H1212 and Oholiab H171 and every H3605 person H376 [fn]wise H2450 at heart H3820, to whom H834 Yahweh H3068 has given H5414 [fn]wisdom H2451 and discernment H8394 to know H3045 how to do H6213 all H3605 the work H4399 of the service H5656 of constructing the sanctuary H6944, shall do H6213 in accordance with all H3605 that Yahweh H3068 has commanded H6680.”
All H3605 the gold H2091 that was used H6213 for the work H4399, in all H3605 the work H4399 of the sanctuary H6944, even the gold H2091 of the wave H8573 offering H8573, was [fn]29 H8672 H6242 talents H3603 and [fn]730 H7651 H3967 H7970 shekels H8255, according to the shekel H8255 of the sanctuary H6944.
Then Moses H4872 said H559 to Aaron H175 and to his sons H1121, “Boil H1310 the flesh H1320 at the doorway H6607 of the tent H168 of meeting H4150, and eat H398 it there H8033 together with the bread H3899 which H834 is in the basket H5536 of the ordination H4394 offering H4394, just H834 as I commanded H6680, saying H559, ‘Aaron H175 and his sons H1121 shall eat H398 it.'
‘Now when H3588 the man with the discharge H2100 becomes H2891 cleansed H2891 from his discharge H2101, then he shall count H5608 off for himself seven H7651 days H3117 for his cleansing H2893; he shall then wash H3526 his clothes H899 and bathe H7364 his body H1320 in [fn]running H2416 water H4325 and will become H2891 clean H2891.
‘You are to keep H8104 My statutes H2708. You shall not breed H7250 together H7250 two H3610 kinds H3610 of your cattle H929; you shall not sow H2232 your field H7704 with two H3610 kinds H3610 of seed nor H3808 wear H5927 a garment H899 upon you of two H3610 kinds H3610 of material H8162 mixed H8162 together H8162.
‘And the priest H3548 who is the highest H1419 among H4480 his brothers H251, on whose H834 head H7218 the anointing H4888 oil H8081 has been poured H3332 and [fn]who has been ordained H4390 H3027 to wear H3847 the garments H899, shall not [fn]uncover H6544 his head H7218 nor H3808 tear H6533 his clothes H899;
‘When you reap H7114 the harvest H7105 of your land H776, moreover, you shall not reap H7114 to the very corners H6285 of your field H7704 nor H3808 gather H3950 the gleaning H3951 of your harvest H7105; you are to leave H5800 them for the afflicted H6041 and the sojourner H1616. I am Yahweh H3068 your God H430.'”
‘On exactly H389 the fifteenth H2568 H6240 day H3117 of the seventh H7637 month H2320, when you have gathered H622 in H622 the produce H8393 of the land H776, you shall celebrate H2287 the feast H2282 of Yahweh H3068 for seven H7651 days H3117, with a [fn]rest H7677 on the first H7223 day H3117 and a [fn]rest H7677 on the eighth H8066 day H3117.
Now it happened on the day H3117 that Moses H4872 had finished H3615 setting H6965 up H6965 the tabernacle H4908, that he anointed H4886 it and set H6942 it apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942 with all H3605 its furnishings H3627 and the altar H4196 and all H3605 its utensils H3627; he anointed H4886 them and set H6942 them apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942.
‘But the man H376 who H834 is H2930 unclean H2930 and does not purify H2398 himself from uncleanness H2398, that person H5315 shall be cut H3772 off H3772 from the midst H8432 of the assembly H6951 because H3588 he has [fn]made H2930 the sanctuary H4720 of Yahweh H3068 unclean H2930; the water H4325 for impurity H5079 has not been [fn]splashed H2236 on him; he is unclean H2931.
‘You shall offer H6213 these H428 to Yahweh H3068 at your appointed H4150 times H4150, besides H905 H4480 your [fn]votive H5088 offerings H5088 and your freewill H5071 offerings H5071, for your burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and for your grain offerings H4503 and for your drink H5262 offerings H5262 and for your peace H8002 offerings H8002.'”
“Then you said H559 to me, ‘We have sinned H2398 against Yahweh H3068; we will indeed go H5927 up H5927 and fight H3898, just H3605 H834 as Yahweh H3068 our God H430 commanded H6680 us.' And every H376 man H376 of you girded H2296 on his weapons H3627 of war H4421 and regarded H1951 it as H1951 easy H1951 to go H5927 up H5927 into the hill H2022 country H2022.
“When H3588 you [fn]become H3205 the father H3205 of children H1121 and children's H1121 children H1121 and remain H3462 long H3462 in the land H776 and act H7843 corruptly H7843 and make H6213 [fn]a graven H6459 image H6459 in the form H8544 of anything H3605 and do H6213 that which H7451 is H7451 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430 so as to provoke H3707 Him to H3707 anger H3707,
“These H428 words H1697 Yahweh H3068 spoke H1696 to all H3605 your assembly H6951 at the mountain H2022 from the midst H8432 of the fire H784, of the cloud H6051 and of the dense H6205 gloom H6205, with a great H1419 voice H6963, and He added H3254 no H3808 more H3254. He wrote H3789 them on two H8147 tablets H3871 of stone H68 and gave H5414 them to me.
“Do not say H559 in your heart H3824 when Yahweh H3068 your God H430 has driven H1920 them out H1920 before H4480 H6440 you, saying H559, ‘Because of my righteousness H6666 Yahweh H3068 has brought H935 me in H935 to possess H3423 this H2088 land H776,' but it is because of the wickedness H7564 of these H428 nations H1471 that Yahweh H3068 is dispossessing H3423 them before H4480 H6440 you.
“You shall set H6942 apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942 to Yahweh H3068 your God H430 all H3605 the firstborn H1060 males H2145 that are born H3205 of your herd H1241 and of your flock H6629; you shall not work H5647 with the firstborn H1060 of your herd H7794 nor H3808 shear H1494 the firstborn H1060 of your flock H6629.
“Now this H2088 shall be the legal judgment H4941 for the priests H3548 taken from the people H5971, from those who offer H2076 a sacrifice H2077, either H518 an ox H7794 or H518 a sheep H7716: they shall give H5414 to the priest H3548 the shoulder H2220 and the two H3895 cheeks H3895 and the stomach H6896.
“If H3588 you besiege H6696 a city H5892 for many H7227 days 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, and you shall not cut H3772 them down H3772. [fn]For is the tree H6086 of the field H7704 a man H120, that it should [fn]be besieged H4692 by you?
“Yahweh H3068 will send H7971 upon you the curse H3994, confusion H4103, and rebuke H4045, in all H3605 [fn]that you send H4916 forth H4916 your hand H3027 to do H6213, until H5704 you are destroyed H8045 and until H5704 you perish H6 quickly H4118, on H4480 H6440 account H4480 H6440 of H4480 H6440 the evil H7455 of your deeds H4611, because H834 you have forsaken H5800 Me.
“So all H3605 these H428 curses H7045 shall come H935 on you and pursue H7291 you and overtake H5381 you until H5704 you are destroyed H8045, because H3588 you would not listen H8085 to the voice H6963 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430 to keep H8104 His commandments H4687 and His statutes H2708 which H834 He commanded H6680 you.
And with the choice H4022 things H4022 of the earth H776 and its fullness H4393,
And the favor H7522 of Him who dwelt H7931 in H7931 the bush H5572.
Let it come H935 to the head H7218 of Joseph H3130,
And to the top H6936 of H6936 the H6936 head H6936 of the one H5139 distinguished H5139 among his brothers H251.
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Joshua H3091, “Do not be H3372 afraid H3372 because H4480 H6440 of them, for tomorrow H4279 at this H2088 time H6256 I will give H5414 all H3605 of them over, slain H2491, before H6440 Israel H3478; you shall hamstring H6131 their horses H5483 and burn H8313 their chariots H4818 with fire H784.”
Now to the sons H1121 of Gershon H1648, one of the families H4940 of the Levites H3881, from the half-tribe H2677 H4294 of Manasseh H4519, they gave Golan H1474 in Bashan H1316, the city H5892 of refuge H4733 for the manslayer H7523, with its pasture H4054 lands H4054, and Be-eshterah H1203 with its pasture H4054 lands H4054; two H8147 cities H5892.
“Now behold H2009, today H3117 I am going H1980 the way H1870 of all H3605 the earth H776, and you know H3045 in all H3605 your hearts H3824 and in all H3605 your souls H5315 that not one H259 word H1697 of all H3605 the good H2896 words H1697 which H834 Yahweh H3068 your God H430 spoke H1696 concerning H5921 you has failed H5307; all H3605 have come H935 to pass H935 for you; not one word H259 of them has failed H5307.
Now they buried H6912 the bones H6106 of Joseph H3130, which H834 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 brought H5927 up H5927 from Egypt H4714, at Shechem H7927, in the portion H2513 of the field H7704 which H834 Jacob H3290 had bought H7069 from the sons H1121 of Hamor H2544 the father H1 of Shechem H7927 for one hundred H3967 [fn]qesitah H7192; and they became H1961 the inheritance H5159 of Joseph's H3130 sons H1121.
But Manasseh H4519 did not take H3423 possession H3423 of Beth-shean H1052 and its towns H1323 or Taanach H8590 and its towns H1323 or the inhabitants H3427 of Dor H1756 and its towns H1323 or the inhabitants H3427 of Ibleam H2991 and its towns H1323 or the inhabitants H3427 of Megiddo H4023 and its towns H1323; so the Canaanites H3669 persisted H2974 to live H3427 in that land H776.
So Gideon H1439 went H935 in H935 and prepared H6213 a young H1423 H5795 goat H1423 H5795 and unleavened H4682 bread H4682 from an [fn]ephah H374 of flour H7058; he put H7760 the meat H1320 in a basket H5536 [fn]and the broth H4839 in a pot H6517 and brought H3318 them out H3318 to him under H8478 the [fn]oak H424 and presented H5066 them.
And Delilah H1807 saw H7200 that he had told H5046 her all H3605 that was in his heart H3820, so she sent H7971 and called H7121 the lords H5633 of the Philistines H6430, saying H559, “Come H5927 up H5927 once H6471 more H6471, for he has told H5046 me all H3605 that is in his heart H3820.” Then the lords H5633 of the Philistines H6430 came H5927 up H5927 to her and brought H5927 up H5927 the silver H3701 in their hands H3027.
Then Samuel H8050 spoke H559 to all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478, saying H559, “If H518 you are to return H7725 to Yahweh H3068 with all H3605 your heart H3824, then remove H5493 the foreign H5236 gods H430 and the Ashtaroth H6252 from among H8432 you and set H3559 your hearts H3824 toward Yahweh H3068 and serve H5647 Him alone H905; and He will deliver H5337 you from the hand H3027 of the Philistines H6430.”
Now the day H3117 came H1961 that Jonathan H3083, the son H1121 of Saul H7586, said H559 to the young H5288 man H5288 who was carrying H5375 his armor H3627, “Come H1980 and let us cross H5674 over H5674 to the Philistines' H6430 garrison H4673 that is on the other H5676 side H5676.” But he did not tell H5046 his father H1.
Then Jonathan H3083 said H559 to the young H5288 man H5288 who was carrying H5375 his armor H3627, “Come H1980 and let us cross H5674 over H5674 to the garrison H4673 of these H428 uncircumcised H6189; perhaps H194 Yahweh H3068 will work H6213 for us, for Yahweh H3068 is not restrained H4622 to save H3467 by many H7227 or H176 by few H4592.”
Now afterward H310 H3651 David H1732 arose H6965 and went H3318 out H3318 of the cave H4631 and called H7121 after H310 Saul H7586, saying H559, “My lord H113 the king H4428!” And when Saul H7586 looked H5027 behind H310 him, David H1732 bowed H6915 with his [fn]face H639 to the ground H776 and prostrated H2331 himself.
Then David H1732 came H935 to the two hundred H3967 men H376 who H834 were too H4480 exhausted H6296 to follow H1980 H310 David H1732, who had also remained H3427 at the brook H5158 Besor H1308, and they went H3318 out H3318 to meet H7122 David H1732 and to meet H7122 the people H5971 who H834 were with him, and David H1732 approached H5066 the people H5971 and greeted H7592 H7965 them.
Then it was told H5046 to King H4428 David H1732, saying H559, “Yahweh H3068 has blessed H1288 the house H1004 of Obed-edom H5654 and all H3605 that belongs to him, on account H5668 of the ark H727 of God H430.” So David H1732 went H1980 and brought H5927 up H5927 the ark H727 of God H430 from the house H1004 of Obed-edom H5654 into the city H5892 of David H1732 with gladness H8057.
He also struck H5221 Moab H4124, and measured H4058 them with the line H2256, making them lie H7901 down H7901 on the ground H776; and he measured H4058 two H8147 lines H2256 to put H4191 to H4191 death H4191 and one full H4393 line H2256 to keep H2421 alive H2421. And the Moabites H4124 became H1961 servants H5650 to David H1732, bringing H5375 tribute H4503.
Now Israel H3478 had fled H5127, each H376 to his tent H168.
Now Mephibosheth H4648 the [fn]son H1121 of Saul H7586 had come H3381 down H3381 to meet H7122 the king H4428; and he had not H3808 done H6213 anything for his feet H7272, nor H3808 done H6213 anything for his mustache H8222, nor H3808 washed H3526 his clothes H899, from the day H3117 the king H4428 departed H1980 until H5704 the day H3117 he came H935 home in peace H7965.
Now a vile H1100 fellow H376 happened H7122 to be there H8033 whose name H8034 was Sheba H7652, the son H1121 of Bichri H1075, a Benjamite H376 H3228; and he blew H8628 the trumpet H7782 and said H559,
“We have H369 no H369 portion H2506 in David H1732,
Nor H3808 do we have inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448;
And Rizpah H7532 the daughter H1323 of Aiah H345 took H3947 sackcloth H8242 and spread H5186 it 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 beasts H2416 of the field H7704 by night H3915.
“Now you also H1571 know H3045 what H834 Joab H3097 the son H1121 of Zeruiah H6870 did H6213 to me, what H834 he did H6213 to the two H8147 commanders H8269 of the armies H6635 of Israel H3478, to Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner H5369, and to Amasa H6021 the son H1121 of Jether H3500, whom he killed H2026; he also [fn]shed H7760 the blood H1818 of war H4421 in peace H7965. And he put H5414 the blood H1818 of war H4421 on his belt H2290 [fn]about his [fn]waist H4975, and on his sandals H5275 [fn]on his feet H7272.
Thus all H3605 the work H4399 that King H4428 Solomon H8010 did H6213 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 was finished H7999. And Solomon H8010 brought H935 in H935 the things H6944 set H6944 apart H6944 as H6944 holy H6944 by his father H1 David H1732, the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 and the utensils H3627, and he put H5414 them in the treasuries H214 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Now it happened that when Solomon H8010 had [fn]finished H3615 praying H6419 this H2088 entire H3605 prayer H8605 and supplication H8467 to Yahweh H3068, he arose H6965 from before H6440 the altar H4196 of Yahweh H3068, from kneeling H3766 on his knees H1290 with his [fn]hands H3709 spread H6566 toward heaven H8064.
Then all H3605 Israel H3478 saw that the king H4428 did not listen H8085 to them. So the people H5971 responded H7725 to the king H4428 with this word, saying H559,
“What H4100 portion H2506 do we have in David H1732?
We have no H3808 inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448;
To your tents H168, O Israel H3478!
Now an old H2205 prophet H5030 was living H3427 in Bethel H1008; and his [fn]sons H1121 came H935 and recounted H5608 to him all H3605 the work H4639 which H834 the man H376 of God H430 had done H6213 that day H3117 in Bethel H1008; the words H1697 which H834 he had spoken H1696 to the king H4428, these also they recounted H5608 to their father H1.
After H310 this H2088 event H1697 Jeroboam H3379 did not return H7725 from his evil H7451 way H1870, but he returned H7725 and made H6213 priests H3548 of the high H1116 places H1116 from among [fn]all H7098 the people H5971; any who delighted H2655 to be so, he ordained H4390 H3027. So [fn]they became priests H3548 of the high H1116 places H1116.
Now Elijah H452 the Tishbite H8664, who was of [fn]the settlers H8453 of Gilead H1568, said H559 to Ahab H256, “As Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, lives H2416, before H6440 whom H834 I stand H5975, surely H518 there shall be neither H518 dew H2919 nor rain H4306 these H428 years H8141, except H3588 H518 by my word H1697.”
So he again H7725 sent H7971 the commander H8269 of a third H7992 fifty H2572 with his fifty H2572. Then the third H7992 commander H8269 of fifty H2572 went H5927 up H5927 and came H935 and bowed H3766 down H3766 on his knees H1290 before H5048 Elijah H452, and he begged H2603 him and said H1696 to him, “O man H376 of God H430, please H4994 let my life H5315 and the lives H5315 of these H428 fifty H2572 servants H5650 of yours be H3365 precious H3365 in your sight H5869.
Now it happened that when the king H4428 of Israel H3478 read H7121 the letter H5612, he tore H7167 his clothes H899 and said H559, “Am I God H430, to put H4191 to H4191 death H4191 and to make H2421 alive H2421, that this H2088 man is sending H7971 word to me to cure H622 a man H376 of his leprosy H6883? But know H3045 now H4994, and see H7200 how H3588 he is seeking H579 [fn]a H579 quarrel H579 against me.”
Now it happened H1961 when Elisha H477 the man H376 of God H430 heard H8085 that the king H4428 of Israel H3478 had torn H7167 his clothes H899, that he sent H7971 word to the king H4428, saying H559, “Why H4100 have you torn H7167 your clothes H899? Now H4994 let him come H935 to me, and he shall know H3045 that there H3426 is H3426 a prophet H5030 in Israel H3478.”
Then he said H559 to him, “Did not my heart H3820 go H1980 with you, when H834 the man H376 turned H2015 from his chariot H4818 to meet H7122 you? Is it a time H6256 to receive H3947 money H3701 and to receive H3947 clothes H899 and olive H2132 groves H2132 and vineyards H3754 and sheep H6629 and oxen H1241 and male H5650 and female H8198 slaves H8198?
Now Jehu H3058 had placed H7760 for himself eighty H8084 men H376 outside H2351, and he had said H559, “The one H376 who H834 permits any of H4480 the men H376 whom H834 I cause to come H935 into your hands H3027 to escape H4422, [fn]shall give up his life H5315 in exchange H8478.”
To this H2088 day H3117 they are acting H6213 according to the earlier H7223 customs H4941: they are not H369 fearing H3372 Yahweh H3068; they are not H369 acting H6213 according to their statutes H2708 or their judgments H4941 or the law H8451, or the commandment H4687 which H834 Yahweh H3068 commanded H6680 the sons H1121 of Jacob H3290, whom H834 He named H7760 H8034 Israel H3478;
‘Through H3027 your messengers H4397 you have [fn]reproached H2778 the Lord H136,
And you have said H559, “With my many H7230 chariots H7393
I came H5927 up H5927 to the heights H4791 of the mountains H2022,
To the remotest H3411 parts H3411 of Lebanon H3844;
And I [fn]cut H3772 down H3772 its tall H6967 cedars H730 and its choice H4004 cypresses H1265.
And I [fn]entered H935 its farthest H7093 lodging H4411 place H4411, its thickest H3759 forest H3293.
‘Because H3282 of your raging H7264 against H413 Me,
And because your [fn]presumptuousness H7600 has come H5927 up H5927 to My ears H241,
Therefore I will put H7760 My hook H2397 in your nose H639,
And My bridle H4964 in your lips H8193,
And I will turn H7725 you back H7725 by the way H1870 which H834 you came H935.
‘Then this H2088 shall be the sign H226 for you: [fn]you will eat H398 this year H8141 what H5599 grows H5599 of its H5599 own H5599 accord H5599, in the second H8145 year H8141 what H7823 springs H7823 from the same, and in the third H7992 year H8141 sow H2232, reap H7114, plant H5193 vineyards H3754, and eat H398 their fruit H6529.
Then the king H4428 commanded H6680 Hilkiah H2518 the high H1419 priest H3548 and the priests H3548 of the second H4932 order and the [fn]doorkeepers H8104 H5592, to bring H3318 out H3318 of the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068 all H3605 the vessels H3627 that were made H6213 for Baal H1168, for [fn]Asherah H842, and for all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064; and he burned H8313 them outside H4480 H2351 Jerusalem H3389 in the fields H7709 of the Kidron H6939, and carried H5375 their ashes H6083 to Bethel H1008.
Moreover H1571, the mediums H178 and the spiritists H3049 and the teraphim H8655 and the idols H1544 and all H3605 the detestable H8251 things H8251 that were seen H7200 in the land H776 of Judah H3063 and in Jerusalem H3389, Josiah H2977 purged H1197 in order that he might [fn]establish H6965 the words H1697 of the law H8451 which were written H3789 in the book H5612 that Hilkiah H2518 the priest H3548 found H4672 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Then Jabez H3258 called H7121 on the God H430 of Israel H3478, saying H559, “Oh H518 that H518 You would bless H1288 me indeed H1288 and enlarge H7235 my border H1366, and that Your hand H3027 might be with me, and that You would keep H6213 me from harm H7451 that it may not pain H6087 me!” And God H430 brought H935 about H935 what H834 he asked H7592.
These H428 were the sons H1121 of Levi H3878 according to their fathers' H1 households H1004, even the heads H7218 of the fathers' H1 households of those of them who were [fn]counted H6485, in the number H4557 of names H8034 by their [fn]census H1538, doing H6213 the work H4399 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605.
Moreover, David H1732 and the commanders H8269 of the army H6635 separated H914 for the service H5656 some of the sons H1121 of Asaph H623 and of Heman H1968 and of Jeduthun H3038, who were to prophesy H5012 with lyres H3658, harps H5035, and cymbals H4700; and the number H4557 of [fn]those H376 who performed H4399 their service H5656 was:
Then David H1732 said H559 to all H3605 the assembly H6951, “Now H4994 bless H1288 Yahweh H3068 your God H430.” And all H3605 the assembly H6951 blessed H1288 Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of their fathers H1, and bowed H6915 low H6915 and prostrated H2331 themselves to Yahweh H3068 and to the king H4428.
Thus all H3605 the work H4399 that Solomon H8010 did H6213 for the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 was finished H7999. And Solomon H8010 brought H935 in H935 the [fn]things set H6944 apart H6944 as H6944 holy H6944 by his father H1 David H1732, even the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 and all H3605 the utensils H3627, and he put H5414 them in the treasuries H214 of the house H1004 of God H430.
Then Solomon H8010 set H6942 apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942 the middle H8432 of the court H2691 that was before H6440 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, because there H8033 he offered H6213 the burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and the fat H2459 of the peace H8002 offerings H8002; for H3588 the bronze H5178 altar H4196 which H834 Solomon H8010 had made H6213 was H3201 not able H3201 to hold H3557 the burnt H5930 offering H5930 and the grain offering H4503 and the fat H2459.
Thus King H4428 Solomon H8010 gave H5414 to the queen H4436 of Sheba H7614 all H3605 her desire H2656 which H834 she asked H7592, besides H4480 H905 a return for what H834 she had brought H935 to the king H4428. Then she turned H2015 around H2015 and went H1980 to her own land H776 together with her servants H5650.
Now all H3605 Israel H3478 saw that the king H4428 did not listen H8085 to them. So the people H5971 responded H7725 to the king H4428, saying H559,
“What H4100 portion H2506 do we have in David H1732?
We have no H3808 inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448.
Every H376 man H376 to your tents H168, O Israel H3478;
So Shishak H7895 king H4428 of Egypt H4714 came H5927 up H5927 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389, and took H3947 the treasures H214 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 and the treasures H214 of the king's H4428 house H1004. He took H3947 everything H3605; he even took H3947 the shields H4043 of gold H2091 which H834 Solomon H8010 had made H6213.
Now when Asa H609 heard H8085 these H428 words H1697 and the [fn]prophecy H5016 which Azariah H5838 the son of Oded H5752 the prophet H5030 spoke, he strengthened H2388 himself and took H5674 away H5674 the detestable H8251 idols H8251 from all H3605 the land H776 of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 and from the cities H5892 which H834 he had captured H3920 in the hill H2022 country H2022 of Ephraim H669. He then renewed H2318 the altar H4196 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 was in front H6440 of the porch H197 of Yahweh H3068.
Now it happened H1961 at the turn H8622 of the year H8141 that the military H2428 force H2428 of the Arameans H758 came H5927 up H5927 against H5921 him; 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 spoil H7998 to the king H4428 of Damascus H1834.
Now when all H3605 this H2088 was completed H3615, all H3605 Israel H3478 who were H4672 present H4672 went H3318 out H3318 to the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, shattered H7665 the pillars H4676, cut H1438 the [fn]Asherim H842 in H1438 pieces H1438, and tore H5422 down H5422 the high H1116 places H1116 and the altars H4196 throughout H4480 all H3605 Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144, as well as in Ephraim H669 and Manasseh H4519, until H5704 the destruction was completed H3615. Then all H3605 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 returned H7725 to their cities H5892, each H376 to his possession H272.
Now in the second H8145 year H8141 of their coming H935 to the house H1004 of God H430 at Jerusalem H3389 in the second H8145 month H2320, Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel H7597 and Jeshua H3091 the son H1121 of Jozadak H3087 and the rest H7605 of their brothers H251 the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881, and all H3605 who came H935 from the captivity H7628 to Jerusalem H3389, began H2490 the work and appointed H5975 the Levites H3881 from twenty H6242 years H8141 and older H4605 to direct H5329 the work H4399 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
‘Also H638 the gold H1722 and silver H3702 utensils H3984 of the house H1005 of God H426, which H1768 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 had taken H5312 from the temple H1965 [fn]in Jerusalem H3390 and brought H2987 them to the temple H1965 of Babylon H895, these H1994 King H4430 Cyrus H3567 took H5312 out H5312 from the temple H1965 of Babylon H895, and they were given H3052 to one whose name H8036 was Sheshbazzar H8340, whom H1768 he had appointed H7761 governor H6347.
“In the first H2298 year H8140 of King H4430 Cyrus H3567, Cyrus H3567 the king H4430 issued H7761 a decree H2942:
‘Concerning the house H1005 of God H426 in Jerusalem H3390, let that house H1005, the place H870 where H1768 sacrifices H1685 are offered H1684, be rebuilt H1124 and let its foundations H787 be [fn]retained H5446, its height H7314 being [fn]60 H8361 cubits H521 and its width H6613 60 H8361 cubits H521;
The exiles H1121 H1473 who had come H935 from the captivity H7628 brought H7126 burnt H5930 offerings H5930 near H7126 to the God H430 of Israel H3478: 12 H8147 H6240 bulls H6499 for all H3605 Israel H3478, 96 H8673 H8337 rams H352, 77 H7657 H7651 lambs H3532, 12 H8147 H6240 male H6842 goats H6842 for a sin H2403 offering H2403, all H3605 as a burnt H5930 offering H5930 to Yahweh H3068.
“You alone H905 are Yahweh H3068.
You have made H6213 the heavens H8064,
The heaven H8064 of heavens H8064 with all H3605 their host H6635,
The earth H776 and all H3605 that is on it,
The seas H3220 and all H3605 that is in them.
You give H2421 life H2421 to all H3605 of them
And the heavenly H8064 host H6635 bows H2331 down H2331 to You.
Now it happened H1961 on the third H7992 day H3117, that Esther H635 put H3847 on H3847 her royal H4438 robes H3847 and stood H5975 in the inner H6442 court H2691 of the king's H4428 house H1004 in front H5227 of the king's H4428 [fn]rooms H1004, and the king H4428 was sitting H3427 on his royal H4438 throne H3678 in the [fn]throne H4438 room H1004, opposite H5227 the entrance H6607 to his house H1004.
Then Job's H347 three H7969 friends H7453 heard H8085 of all H3605 this H2088 calamity H7451 that had come H935 upon him. So they came H935 each H376 one H376 from his own place H4725, Eliphaz H464 the Temanite H8489, Bildad H1085 the Shuhite H7747, and Zophar H6691 the Naamathite H5284; and they made H3259 an H3259 appointment H3259 together H3162 to come H935 to console H5110 him and comfort H5162 him.
Now it happened H1961 after H310 Yahweh H3068 had spoken H1696 these H428 words H1697 to Job H347, that Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Eliphaz H464 the Temanite H8489, “My anger H639 burns H2734 against you and against your two H8147 friends H7453 because H3588 you have not spoken H1696 of Me what is H3559 right H3559 as My servant H5650 Job H347 has.
Now it will be H1961 that instead H8478 of H8478 [fn]sweet H1314 perfume H1314 there will be the smell of rot H4716;
Instead H8478 of H8478 a belt H2290, a rope H5364;
Instead H8478 of H8478 well-set H4748 hair H4748, a plucked-out H7144 scalp H7144;
Instead H8478 of H8478 fine H6614 clothes H6614, a donning H4228 of sackcloth H8242;
On this H3651 account H3651, the anger H639 of Yahweh 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 down H5221.
And the mountains H2022 trembled H7264, and their corpses H5038 [fn]lay H1961 like refuse H5478 in the middle H7130 of the streets H2351.
For all H3605 this H2088 His anger H639 is H7725 not turned H7725 back H7725,
But His hand H3027 is still H5750 stretched H5186 out H5186.
[fn]But there will be no H3808 more gloom H4155 for her who H834 was in anguish H4164; in earlier H7223 times H6256 He treated H7043 the land H776 of Zebulun H2074 and the land H776 of Naphtali H5321 with H7043 contempt H7043, but later H314 on He shall make H3513 it glorious H3513, by the way H1870 of the sea H3220, on the other H5676 side H5676 of Jordan H3383, Galilee H1551 of the [fn]Gentiles H1471.
For the fields H7709 of Heshbon H2809 have languished H535, the vines H1612 of Sibmah H7643 as well;
The lords H1167 of the nations H1471 have trampled H1986 down H1986 its choice H8291 clusters H8291
Which reached H5060 as far H5704 as Jazer H3270 and wandered H8582 to the deserts H4057;
Its tendrils H7976 spread H5203 themselves out H5203 and passed H5674 over H5674 the sea H3220.
Therefore H5921 H3651 I will weep H1058 bitterly H1065 for Jazer H3270, for the vine H1612 of Sibmah H7643;
I will drench H7301 you with my tears H1832, O Heshbon H2809 and Elealeh H500;
For the shouting H1959 over H5921 your summer H7019 fruits H7019 and your harvest H7105 has fallen H5307 away H5307.
For before H6440 the harvest H7105, as soon as the bud H6525 [fn]blossoms H8552
And the flower H5328 becomes H1961 a ripening H1580 grape H1155,
Then He will cut H3772 off H3772 the sprigs H2150 with pruning H4211 knives H4211
And remove H5493 and cut H8456 away H8456 the spreading H5189 branches H5189.
The [fn]oracle H4853 concerning Egypt H4714.
Behold H2009, Yahweh H3068 is riding H7392 on a swift H7031 cloud H5645 and is about to come H935 to Egypt H4714;
The idols H457 of Egypt H4714 will shake H5128 at His presence H6440,
And the heart H3824 of the Egyptians H4714 will melt H4549 within H7130 them.
Then it will be that he who flees H5127 the sound H6963 of panic H6343 will fall H5307 into the pit H6354,
And he who [fn]climbs H5927 out of the pit H6354 will be caught H3920 in the pitfall H6341;
For the windows H699 [fn]above H4480 H4791 are opened H6605, and the foundations H4144 of the earth H776 quake H7493.
So the word H1697 of Yahweh 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.
You will have H1961 [fn]songs H7892 as in the night H3915 when you set H6942 yourself apart H6942 as holy H6942 for the festival H2282,
And gladness H8057 of heart H3824 as when one marches H1980 to the sound of the flute H2485,
To go H935 to the mountain H2022 of Yahweh H3068, to the Rock H6697 of Israel H3478.
For thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 to me,
“As the lion H738 or the young H3715 lion H3715 growls H1897 over H5921 its prey H2964,
Against H5921 which H834 a multitude H4393 of shepherds H7462 is called H7121 out H7121,
And it will not be dismayed H2865 at their voice H6963 nor H3808 afflicted H6031 at their noise H1995,
So H3651 will Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635 come H3381 down H3381 to wage H6633 war H6633 on Mount H2022 Zion H6726 and on its hill H1389.”
He who walks H1980 righteously H6666 and speaks H1696 uprightly H4339;
He who rejects H3988 greedy H1215 gain H1215 of [fn]oppression H4642,
And shakes H5287 his hands H3709 so H4480 that H4480 they hold H8551 no H4480 bribe H7810;
He who stops H331 his ears H241 from hearing H8085 about bloodshed H1818
And shuts H6105 his eyes H5869 from looking H7200 upon evil H7451;
Behold H2372 Zion H6726, the city H7151 of our appointed H4150 times H4150;
Your eyes H5869 will see H7200 Jerusalem H3389, an abode H5116 at H7600 ease H7600,
A tent H168 which will not be folded H6813;
Its stakes H3489 will never H1077 H5331 be pulled H5265 up H5265,
Nor H1077 any H3605 of its cords H2256 ever H1077 be torn H5423 apart H5423.
“Through H3027 your servants H5650 you have [fn]reproached H2778 the Lord H136,
And you have said H559, ‘With my many H7230 chariots H7393 I came H5927 up H5927 to the heights H4791 of the mountains H2022,
To the remotest H3411 parts H3411 of Lebanon H3844;
And I cut H3772 down H3772 its tall H6967 cedars H730 and its choice H4004 cypresses H1265.
And I will go H935 to its [fn]highest H4791 peak H7093, its thickest H3759 forest H3293.
“Because H3282 of your raging H7264 against H413 Me
And because your [fn]presumptuousness H7600 has come H5927 up H5927 to My ears H241,
Therefore I will put H7760 My hook H2397 in your nose H639
And My bridle H4964 in your lips H8193,
And I will turn H7725 you back H7725 by the way H1870 which H834 you came H935.
Let them bring H5066 it forth H5066 and declare H5046 to us what H834 is going to take H7136 place H7136;
As for the former H7223 events, declare H5046 what H4100 they were,
That we may establish H7760 our heart H3820 on them and know H3045 their outcome H319.
Or H176 cause H8085 us to hear H8085 of what is coming H935;
Who H4310 has declared H5046 this from the beginning H7218, that we might know H3045?
Or from former H6440 times H6440, that we may say H559, “He is right H6662!”?
Surely H637 there H369 was H369 no H369 one H369 who declared H5046;
Surely H637 there H369 was H369 no H369 one H369 who caused H8085 those words to H8085 be H8085 heard H8085;
Surely H637 there H369 was H369 no H369 one H369 who heard H8085 your words H561.
“I will lead H1980 the blind H5787 by a way H1870 they do not know H3045,
In paths H5410 they do not know H3045 I will guide H1869 them.
I will make H7760 darkness H4285 into light H216 before H6440 them
And rugged H4625 places H4625 into plains H4334.
These H428 are the things H1697 I will do H6213,
And I will not forsake H5800 them.”
Confirming H6965 the word H1697 of His servant H5650—
And the counsel H6098 of His messengers H4397 He will complete H7999—
And being the One who says H559 of Jerusalem H3389, ‘She shall be inhabited H3427!'
And of the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, ‘They shall be built H1129.'
And I will raise H6965 up H6965 her waste H2723 places H2723 again.
“Indeed, you have not heard H8085; indeed, you have not known H3045.
Indeed, even H1571 from long H227 ago H227 your ear H241 has not been open H6605
Because H3588 I knew H3045 that you would deal H898 very H898 treacherously H898;
And you have been called H7121 a [fn]transgressor H6586 from the [fn]womb H990.
Thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068,
“Behold H2009, I will lift H5375 up H5375 My hand H3027 to the nations H1471
And make high H7311 My standard H5251 to the peoples H5971;
And they will bring H935 your sons H1121 in their bosom H2684,
And your daughters H1323 will be lifted H5375 up H5375 on their shoulders H3802.
“I will set H7760 it into the hand H3027 of those who cause you grief H3013,
Who H834 have said H559 to [fn]you, ‘Lie H7812 down H7812 that we may walk H5674 over H5674 you.'
You have even set H7760 your back H1460 down like the ground H776
And like the street H2351 for those who walk H5674 over H5674 it.”
“If H518 because H4480 of the sabbath H7676, you turn H7725 your foot H7272
From doing H6213 your own desire H2656 on My holy H6944 day H3117,
And call H7121 the sabbath H7676 a delight H6027, the holy H6918 day of Yahweh H3068 honorable H3513,
And honor H3513 it, by not doing H6213 your own ways H1870,
“Surely H3588 the coastlands H339 will hope H6960 in Me;
And the ships H591 of Tarshish H8659 will come first H7223,
To bring H935 your sons H1121 from afar H7350,
Their silver H3701 and their gold H2091 with them,
For the name H8034 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430,
And for the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 because H3588 He has [fn]adorned H6286 you with beautiful H6286 glory H6286.
For as the earth H776 brings H3318 forth H3318 its branches H6780,
And as a garden H1593 causes the things H2221 sown H2221 in it to branch H6779 out H6779,
So H3651 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068 will cause righteousness H6666 and praise H8416
To branch H6779 out H6779 before H5048 all H3605 the nations H1471.
Yahweh H3068 has sworn H7650 by His right H3225 hand H3225 and by His strong H5797 arm H2220,
“I will never H518 again H5750 give H5414 your grain H1715 as food H3978 for your enemies H340;
Nor H518 will [fn]foreigners H1121 H5236 drink H8354 your new H8492 wine H8492 for which H834 you have labored H3021.”
Both [fn]their own iniquities H5771 and the iniquities H5771 of their fathers H1 together H3162,” says H559 Yahweh H3068.
“Because H834 they have burned H6999 incense H6999 on the mountains H2022
And reproached H2778 Me on the hills H1389,
Therefore I will measure H4058 their former H7223 work H6468 into their bosom H2436.”
“But he who slaughters H7819 an ox H7794 is the one who strikes H5221 down H5221 a man H376;
He who sacrifices H2076 a lamb H7716 is the one who breaks H6202 a dog's H3611 neck H6202;
He who offers H5927 a grain offering H4503 is the one who offers swine's H2386 blood H1818;
He who offers H2142 a memorial H2142 offering H2142 of frankincense H3828 is the one who blesses H1288 wickedness H205.
As they have chosen H977 their own ways H1870,
And their soul H5315 takes H2654 pleasure H2654 in their detestable H8251 things H8251,
So H1571 I will choose H977 their [fn]punishments H8586
And will bring H935 on them what H4034 they dread H4034,
Because H3282 I called H7121, but no H369 one H369 answered H6030;
I spoke H1696, but they did not listen H8085.
And they did H6213 what H7451 was evil H7451 in My eyes H5869
And chose H977 that in which H834 I did not take H2654 pleasure H2654.”
“Who H4310 has heard H8085 such H2088 a thing H2088? Who H4310 has seen H7200 such H428 things?
Can a land H776 be [fn]brought H2342 forth H2342 through H2342 labor H2342 pains H2342 in one H259 day H3117?
Can a nation H1471 be born H3205 all H6471 at H6471 once H259 H6471?
As H3588 soon H3588 as H3588 Zion H6726 was H2342 in H2342 labor H2342 pains H2342, she also H1571 gave H3205 birth H3205 to her sons H1121.
“Those who sanctify H6942 and purify H2891 themselves to go to the gardens H1593,
[fn]Following H310 one H259 in the center H8432,
Who eat H398 swine's H2386 flesh H1320, detestable H8263 things H8263, and mice H5909,
Will come H5486 to H5486 an H5486 end H5486 altogether H3162,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
“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 with the sword H2719 your fortified H4013 cities H5892 in which H834 you trust H982.
“At that time H6256,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068, “they will bring H3318 out H3318 the bones H6106 of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 and the bones H6106 of its princes H8269, and the bones H6106 of the priests H3548 and the bones H6106 of the prophets H5030, and the bones H6106 of the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 from their graves H6913.
“For the mountains H2022 I will take H5375 up H5375 a weeping H1065 and wailing H5092,
And for the pastures H4999 of the wilderness H4057 a funeral lamentation H7015,
Because H3588 they are turned H5327 into ruin H5327 so H4480 H1097 that no H1097 one H376 passes H5674 through H5674,
And the lowing H6963 of the cattle H4735 is not heard H8085;
Both H4480 the birds H5775 of the sky H8064 and the beasts H929 have fled H5074; they are gone H1980.
“As for your adulteries H5004 and your lustful neighings H4684,
The lewdness H2154 of your prostitution H2184
On the hills H1389 in the field H7704,
I have seen H7200 your detestable H8251 things H8251.
Woe H188 to you, O Jerusalem H3389!
How H4970 long H310 H4970 H5750 will you not H3808 cleanse H2891 yourself?”
“Now when H3588 you tell H5046 this H2088 people H5971 all H3605 these H428 words H1697, they will say H559 to you, ‘For H5921 what H4100 reason H5921 H4100 has Yahweh H3068 declared H1696 all H3605 this H2088 great H1419 calamity H7451 against H5921 us? And what H4100 is our iniquity H5771, or what H4100 is our sin H2403 which H834 we have committed H2398 against Yahweh H3068 our God H430?'
‘But like the rotten H7451 figs H8384 which H834 cannot H3808 be eaten H398 due H4480 to rottenness H7455—indeed H3588, thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068—so H3651 I will give H5414 over Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and his officials H8269 and the remnant H7611 of Jerusalem H3389 who remain H7604 in this H2088 land H776 and the ones who inhabit H3427 the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
‘Then it will be when seventy H7657 years H8141 are fulfilled H4390, that I will punish H6485 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 and that nation H1471,' declares H5002 Yahweh H3068, ‘for their iniquity H5771, even the land H776 of the Chaldeans H3778; and I will make H7760 it an everlasting H5769 desolation H8077.
Therefore H3651 hear H8085 the counsel H6098 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 He has counseled H3289 against H413 Edom H123, and His purposes H4284 which H834 He has purposed H2803 against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Teman H8487: surely H518 H3808 they will drag H5498 them off H5498, even the little H6810 ones H6810 of the flock H6629; surely H518 H3808 He will make H8074 their pasture H5116 desolate H8074 because H5921 of them.
“Israel H3478 is a scattered H6340 [fn]flock H7716; the lions H738 have banished H5080 them away H5080. The first H7223 one H7223 who devoured H398 him was the king H4428 of Assyria H804, and this H2088 last H314 one H314 who has broken H6105 his bones H6105 is Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894.
“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 Yahweh H3068,
“A sword H2719 against H413 [fn]their horses H5483 and against H413 [fn]their chariots H7393
And against H413 all H3605 the [fn]foreigners H6154 who H834 are in the midst H8432 of her,
And they will become H1961 women H802!
A sword H2719 against H413 her treasures H214, and they will be plundered H962!
Sharpen H1305 the arrows H2671, fill H4390 the quivers H7982!
Yahweh H3068 has aroused H5782 the spirit H7307 of the kings H4428 of the Medes H4074
Because H3588 His purpose H4209 is against H5921 Babylon H894 to destroy H7843 it;
For it is the vengeance H5360 of Yahweh H3068, vengeance H5360 for His temple H1964.
Zayin
In the days H3117 of her affliction H6040 and homelessness H4788
Jerusalem H3389 remembers H2142 all H3605 her precious H4262 things H4262
That were from the days H3117 of old H6924,
When her people H5971 fell H5307 into the hand H3027 of the adversary H6862
And no H369 one H369 helped H5826 her.
Nun
“The yoke H5923 of my transgressions H6588 is bound H8244;
By His hand H3027 they are knit H8276 together H8276.
They have come H5927 upon my neck H6677;
He has made my strength H3581 stumble H3782.
The Lord H136 has given H5414 me into the hands H3027
Of those against whom I am H3201 not able H3201 to stand H6965.
Beth
The Lord H136 has swallowed H1104 up; He has not spared H2550
All H3605 the habitations H4999 of Jacob H3290.
In His wrath H5678 He has pulled H2040 down H2040
The strongholds H4013 of the daughter H1323 of Judah H3063;
He has brought H5060 them down H5060 to the ground H776;
He has profaned H2490 the kingdom H4467 and its princes H8269.
Daleth
He has bent H1869 His bow H7198 like an enemy H340;
He has set H5324 His right H3225 hand H3225 like an adversary H6862
And killed H2026 all H3605 that were desirable H4261 to the eye H5869;
In the tent H168 of the daughter H1323 of Zion H6726
He has poured H8210 out H8210 His wrath H2534 like fire H784.
Therefore H3651, thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, “Behold H2009, I am against H413 your magic bands H3704 by which H834 you hunt H6679 souls H5315 there H8033 as [fn]birds H6524, and I will tear H7167 them from your arms H2220; and I will let H7971 their souls H7971 go, the very souls H5315 whom H834 you hunt H6679 as [fn]birds H6524.
“But there was [fn]another H259 great H1419 eagle H5404 with great H1419 wings H3671 and much H7227 plumage H5133; and behold H2009, this H2088 vine H1612 bent H3719 its roots H8328 toward H5921 him and sent H7971 out H7971 its foliage H1808 toward him from the beds H6170 where H4302 it was planted H4302, that he might water H8248 it.
Then I said H559 I would pour H8210 out H8210 My wrath H2534 on them, to [fn]spend H3615 My anger H639 against them in the midst H8432 of the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
“As for you, O house H1004 of Israel H3478,” thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, “Go H1980, serve H5647 everyone H376 his idols H1544; [fn]but after H310 this you will surely H518 H369 listen H8085 to Me, and My holy H6944 name H8034 you will profane H2490 no H3808 longer H5750 with your gifts H4979 and with your idols H1544.
“By the abundance H7230 of your iniquities H5771,
In the unrighteousness H5766 of your trade H7404
You profaned H2490 your sanctuaries H4720.
Therefore I have brought H3318 out H3318 fire H784 from the midst H8432 of you;
It has consumed H398 you,
“But as for you, son H1121 of man H120, the sons H1121 of your people H5971 who talk H1696 about you by the walls H7023 and in the doorways H6607 of the houses H1004, speak H1696 to one H2297 another H259, each H376 to his brother H251, saying H559, ‘Come H935 now H4994 and hear H8085 what H4100 the word H1697 is which comes H3318 forth H3318 from Yahweh H3068.'
“Now as for you, son H1121 of man H120, thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, ‘Say H559 to every H3605 [fn]kind H3671 of bird H6833 and to every H3605 beast H2416 of the field H7704, “Gather H6908 and come H935, assemble H622 from every H5439 side H5439 to My sacrifice H2077 which H834 I am going to sacrifice H2076 for you, as a great H1419 sacrifice H2077 on the mountains H2022 of Israel H3478, that you may eat H398 flesh H1320 and drink H8354 blood H1818.
He measured H4058 the length H753 of the building H1146 [fn]along H413 the front H6440 of the separate H1508 area H1508 behind H5921 H310 it, with a [fn]gallery H862 on each H6311 side H6311, one hundred H3967 cubits H520, along with the inner H6442 nave H1964 and the porches H197 of the court H2691.
Then he said H559 to me, “The north H6828 chambers H3957 and the south H1864 chambers H3957, which H834 are opposite H413 H6440 the separate H1508 area H1508, they are the holy H6944 chambers H3957 where H834 H8033 the priests H3548 who H834 are near H7138 to Yahweh H3068 shall eat H398 the most H6944 holy H6944 things H6944. There H8033 they shall lay H5117 the most H6944 holy H6944 things H6944, the grain offering H4503, the sin H2403 offering H2403, and the guilt H817 offering H817; for the place H4725 is holy H6918.
“Now the prince H5387 shall have land on either H2088 side H2088 of the holy H6944 contribution H8641 and the city's H5892 possession H272 of land, adjacent H413 H6440 to the holy H6944 contribution H8641 and the city's H5892 possession H272 of land, on the west H3220 side H6285 toward the west H3220 and on the east H6924 side H6285 toward the east H6921, and in length H753 comparable H5980 to one H259 of the portions H2506, from the west H3220 border H1366 to the east H6921 border H1366.
Then he brought H7725 me back H7725 to the door H6607 of the house H1004; and behold H2009, water H4325 was flowing H3318 from under H8478 the threshold H4670 of the house H1004 toward the east H6921, for the house H1004 faced H6440 east H6921. And the water H4325 was flowing H3381 down H3381 from under H8478, from the right H3233 side H3802 of the house H1004, from south H5045 of the altar H4196.
Nebuchadnezzar H5020 answered 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 saved H7804 His servants H5649 who H1768 put H7365 their trust H7365 in Him, [fn]violating H8133 the king's H4430 word H4406, and gave H3052 up their bodies H1655 so H1768 as not to serve H6399 and not to worship H5457 any H3606 god H426 except H3861 their own God H426.
Now when H1768 Daniel H1841 knew H3046 that the written H3792 document was signed H7560, he entered H5954 his house H1005 (now in H5954 his roof H5952 chamber H5952 he had windows H3551 open H6606 toward H5049 Jerusalem H3390); and he continued kneeling H1289 on his knees H1291 three H8532 times H2166 a day H3118, praying H6739 and giving H3029 thanks H3029 before H6925 his God H426, [fn]as he had been doing H5648 previously H6928.
“Then H116 I desired H6634 to know H3321 the H3321 [fn]exact H3321 meaning H3321 of the fourth H7244 beast H2423, which H1768 was different H8133 from all H3606 [fn]the others, extraordinarily H3493 fearsome H1763, with its teeth H8128 of iron H6523 and its claws H2953 of bronze H5174, and which devoured H399, crushed H1855, and trampled H7512 down H7512 the remainder H7606 with its feet H7271,
“For their mother H517 has played H2181 the H2181 harlot H2181;
She who conceived H2029 them has acted H954 shamefully H954.
For she said H559, ‘I will go H1980 after H310 my lovers H157,
Who give H5414 me my bread H3899 and my water H4325,
My wool H6785 and my flax H6593, my oil H8081 and my drink H8250.'
“So I will visit H6485 the days H3117 of the Baals H1168 upon her
When H834 she used to [fn]offer H6999 offerings in H6999 smoke H6999 to them
And adorn H5710 herself with her [fn]earrings H5141 and jewelry H2484
And go H1980 after H310 her lovers H157, so that she forgot H7911 Me,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
Though H3588 he is fruitful H6509 among H996 the [fn]reeds H260,
An east H6921 wind H6921 will come H935,
The wind H7307 of Yahweh H3068 coming H5927 up H5927 from the wilderness H4057;
And his fountain H4726 will become H3001 dry H3001,
And his spring H4599 will be dried H2717 up H2717;
It will plunder H8154 his treasury H214 of every H3605 desirable H2532 article H3627.
What H3499 the gnawing H1501 locust H1501 has left H3499, the swarming H697 locust H697 has consumed H398;
And what H3499 the swarming H697 locust H697 has left H3499, the creeping H3218 locust H3218 has consumed H398;
And what H3499 the creeping H3218 locust H3218 has left H3499, the stripping H2625 locust H2625 has consumed H398.
A day H3117 of darkness H2822 and thick H653 darkness H653,
A day H3117 of clouds H6051 and dense H6205 gloom H6205.
As the dawn H7837 is spread H6566 over H5921 the mountains H2022,
So there is a numerous H7227 and mighty H6099 people H5971;
There has never H3808 H4480 H5769 been H1961 anything like H3644 it,
Nor H3808 will there be again H3254 after H310 it
For the years H8141 from generation H1755 to H1755 generation H1755.
“But I will remove H7368 the northern H6830 military force far H7368 from you,
And I will drive H5080 it into a parched H6723 and desolate H8077 land H776,
And its vanguard H6440 into the eastern H6931 sea H3220,
And its rear H5490 guard into the western H314 sea H3220.
And its stench H889 will rise H5927 up H5927, and its foul H6709 smell H6709 will rise H5927 up H5927,
So rejoice H1523, O sons H1121 of Zion H6726,
And be glad H8055 in Yahweh H3068 your God H430,
For He has given H5414 you [fn]the early H4175 rain H4175 in righteousness H6666.
And He has poured H3381 down H3381 for you the rain H1653,
The [fn]early H4175 and [fn]late H4456 rains H4456 [fn]as before H7223.
I will gather H6908 all H3605 the nations H1471
And bring H3381 them down H3381 to the valley H6010 of [fn]Jehoshaphat H3092.
Then I will enter H8199 into H8199 judgment H8199 with them there H8033
On H5921 behalf H5921 of H5921 My people H5971 and My inheritance H5159, Israel H3478,
Whom H834 they have scattered H6340 among the nations H1471;
Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068,
“For three H7969 transgressions H6588 of Judah H3063 and for four H702
I will not turn H7725 back H7725 its punishment
Because H5921 they rejected H3988 the law H8451 of Yahweh H3068
And have not kept H8104 His statutes H2706;
Their [fn]falsehood H3577 also has led H8582 them astray H8582,
I saw H7200 the Lord H136 standing H5324 beside H5921 the altar H4196, and He said H559,
“Strike H5221 the capitals H3730 so that the thresholds H5592 will quake H7493,
And break H1214 them on the heads H7218 of them all H3605!
Then I will kill H2026 the rest H319 of them with the sword H2719;
Not one of them who H5127 can flee H5127 will flee H5127,
And not one of them who H6412 can survive H6412 will escape H4422.
“And though H518 they hide H2244 on the [fn]top H7218 of Carmel H3760,
From there H8033 I will search H2664 them out H2664 and take H3947 them;
And though H518 they conceal H5641 themselves from My eyes H5869 on the floor H7172 of the sea H3220,
From there H8033 I will command H6680 the serpent H5175, and it will bite H5391 them.
And all H3605 of her graven H6456 images H6456 will be smashed H3807,
And all H3605 of her earnings H868 will be burned H8313 with fire H784
And all H3605 of her idols H6091 I will make H7760 desolate H8077,
For she collected H6908 them from a harlot's H2181 earnings H868,
And to the earnings H868 of a harlot H2181 they will return H7725.
And He will judge H8199 between H996 many H7227 peoples H5971
And will render H3198 decisions H3198 for mighty H6099, [fn]distant H7350 nations H1471.
And they will hammer H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855
And their spears H2595 into pruning H4211 hooks H4211;
Nation H1471 will not lift H5375 up H5375 sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471,
And never H3808 again H5750 will they learn H3925 war H4421.
“Arise H6965 and thresh H1758, daughter H1323 of Zion H6726,
For your horn H7161 I will make H7760 iron H1270,
And your hoofs H6541 I will make H7760 bronze H5154,
That you may pulverize H1854 many H7227 peoples H5971,
That you may devote H2763 to Yahweh H3068 their greedy H1215 gain H1215 unto destruction H2763
And their wealth H2428 to the Lord H136 of all H3605 the earth H776.
“The statutes H2708 of Omri H6018
And all H3605 the works H4639 of the house H1004 of Ahab H256 are kept H8104;
And in their counsels H4156 you walk H1980.
Therefore H4616 I will give H5414 you up H5414 as an object H8047 of horror H8047
And [fn]your inhabitants H3427 as an object H8322 of hissing H8322,
And you will bear H5375 the reproach H2781 of My people H5971.”
Yet H1571 she became an exile H1473;
She went H1980 into captivity H7628;
Also H1571 her infants H5768 were dashed H7376 to H7376 pieces H7376
At the head H7218 of every H3605 street H2351;
They cast H3032 lots H1486 for her honorable H3513 men,
And all H3605 her great H1419 men H1419 were bound H7576 with fetters H2131.
I heard H8085, and my [fn]inward H990 parts H990 trembled H7264;
At the sound H6963 my lips H8193 tingled H6750.
Decay H7538 enters H935 my bones H6106,
And in H8478 my place H8478 I tremble H7264.
Because H834 I must wait H5117 quietly H5117 for the day H3117 of distress H6869,
[fn]For the people H5971 to arise H5927 who will invade H1464 us.
“So I will stretch H5186 out H5186 My hand H3027 against H5921 Judah H3063
And against H5921 all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389.
And I will cut H3772 off H3772 the remnant H7605 of Baal H1168 from this H2088 place H4725,
And the names H8034 of the idolatrous H3649 priests H3649 along H5973 with H5973 the priests H3548,
“In that day H3117 you will feel H954 no H3808 shame H954
Because H4480 of all H3605 your deeds H5949
By which H834 you have transgressed H6586 against Me;
For then H227 I will remove H5493 from your midst H7130
Your proud H1346, exulting H5947 ones H5947,
And you will never H3808 H5750 again H3254 be H1361 haughty H1361
For the teraphim H8655 speak H1696 wickedness H205,
And the diviners H7080 behold H2372 [fn]false H8267 visions H8267
And speak H1696 worthless H7723 dreams H2472;
They comfort H5162 in H1892 vain H1892.
Therefore H5921 H3651 the people journey H5265 like H3644 sheep H6629;
They are H6031 afflicted H6031 because H3588 there H369 is H369 no H369 shepherd H7462.
So I shepherded H7462 the flock H6629 doomed to slaughter H2028—[fn]hence H3651 the afflicted H6041 of the flock H6629. And I took H3947 for myself two H8147 staffs H4731: the one H259 I called H7121 [fn]Favor H5278, and the other H259 I called H7121 [fn]Union H2254; so I shepherded H7462 the flock H6629.
“And it will be H1961 in that day H3117,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, “that I will cut H3772 off H3772 the names H8034 of the idols H6091 from the land H776, and they will no H3808 longer H5750 be remembered H2142; and I will also H1571 cause the prophets H5030 and the unclean H2932 spirit H7307 to pass H5674 away H5674 from the land H776.
“Awake H5782, O sword H2719, against H5921 My Shepherd H7462
And against H5921 the man H1397, My Associate H5997,”
Declares H5002 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635.
“Strike H5221 the Shepherd H7462 that the sheep H6629 may be scattered H6327;
And I will turn H7725 My hand H3027 [fn]against H5921 the little H6819 ones.
Then Laban H3837 answered H6030 and said H559 to Jacob H3290, “The daughters H1323 are my daughters H1323, and the children H1121 are my children H1121, and the flocks H6629 are my flocks H6629, and all H3605 that you see H7200 is mine. But what H4100 can I do H6213 this day H3117 to these H428 daughters of mine H1323 or H176 to their children H1121 whom H834 they have borne H3205?
Then Joseph H3130 went H935 in H935 and told H5046 Pharaoh H6547 and said H559, “My father H1 and my brothers H251 and their flocks H6629 and their herds H1241 and all H3605 that they have, have come H935 out of the land H776 of Canaan H3667; and behold H2009, they are in the land H776 of Goshen H1657.”
Then the daughters H1323 of Zelophehad H6765, the son H1121 of Hepher H2660, the son H1121 of Gilead H1568, the son H1121 of Machir H4353, the son H1121 of Manasseh H4519, of the families H4940 of Manasseh H4519 the son H1121 of Joseph H3130, came H7126 near H7126; and these H428 are the names H8034 of his daughters H1323: Mahlah H4244, Noah H5270 and Hoglah H2295 and Milcah H4435 and Tirzah H8656.
“So it will be, when H3588 all H3605 of these H428 things H1697 have come H935 upon you, the blessing H1293 and the curse H7045 which H834 I have set H5414 before H6440 you, and you cause these things to return H7725 to your heart H3824 in all H3605 the nations H1471 where H834 H8033 Yahweh H3068 your God H430 has banished H5080 you,
“As the firstborn H1060 of his ox H7794, splendor H1926 is his,
And his horns H7161 are the horns H7161 of the wild H7214 ox H7214;
With them he will push 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,
And this was the lot H1486 for the tribe H4294 of Manasseh H4519, for he was the firstborn H1060 of Joseph H3130. To Machir H4353 the firstborn H1060 of Manasseh H4519, the father H1 of Gilead H1568, [fn]were allotted H1961 Gilead H1568 and Bashan H1316, because H3588 he was a man H376 of war H4421.
However, Zelophehad H6765, the son H1121 of Hepher H2660, the son H1121 of Gilead H1568, the son H1121 of Machir H4353, the son H1121 of Manasseh H4519, had H1961 no H3808 sons H1121, only H3588 H518 daughters H1323; and these H428 are the names H8034 of his daughters H1323: Mahlah H4244 and Noah H5270, Hoglah H2295, Milcah H4435 and Tirzah H8656.
When he came H935 to Lehi H3896, the Philistines H6430 shouted H7321 as they met H7122 him. And the Spirit H7307 of Yahweh H3068 [fn]came H6743 upon him mightily H6743 so that the ropes H5688 that were on his arms H2220 were as flax H6593 that is burned H1197 with fire H784, and his bonds H612 [fn]dropped H4549 from his hands H3027.
He also struck H5221 Moab H4124, and measured H4058 them with the line H2256, making them lie H7901 down H7901 on the ground H776; and he measured H4058 two H8147 lines H2256 to put H4191 to H4191 death H4191 and one full H4393 line H2256 to keep H2421 alive H2421. And the Moabites H4124 became H1961 servants H5650 to David H1732, bringing H5375 tribute H4503.
These H428 are the names H8034 of the mighty H1368 men H1368 whom H834 David H1732 had: Josheb-basshebeth H3429 a Tahchemonite H8461, chief H7218 of the [fn]captains H7991, he was called Adino H5722 the Eznite H6112, because H5921 of eight H8083 hundred H3967 slain H2491 by him at one H259 time H6471;
Now the rest H3499 of all H3605 the acts H1697 of Asa H609 and all H3605 his might H1369 and all H3605 that he did H6213 and the cities H5892 which H834 he built H1129, are they not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of the Chronicles H1697 H3117 of the Kings H4428 of Judah H3063? But in the time H6256 of his old H2209 age H2209 he was H2470 diseased H2470 in his feet H7272.
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 that he did H6213 and his might H1369, how H834 he fought H3898 and how H834 he restored H7725 Damascus H1834 and Hamath H2574 to Judah H3063 in Israel H3478, are they not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of the Chronicles H1697 H3117 of the Kings H4428 of Israel H3478?
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Hezekiah H2396 and all H3605 his might H1369, and how H834 he made H6213 the pool H1295 and the conduit H8585 and brought H935 water H4325 into the city H5892, are they not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of the Chronicles H1697 H3117 of the Kings H4428 of Judah H3063?
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Manasseh H4519, even 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 Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, behold H2009, they are among H5921 the chronicles H1697 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478.
let it be H3046 known H3046 to the king H4430 that the Jews H3062 who H1768 came H5559 up H5559 from you have come H858 to us at Jerusalem H3390; they are rebuilding H1124 the rebellious H4779 and evil H873 city H7149 and are completing H3635 the walls H7792 and repairing H2338 the foundations H787.
‘And also H638 let the gold H1722 and silver H3702 articles H3984 of the house H1005 of God H426, which H1768 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 took H5312 out H5312 from the temple H1965 in Jerusalem H3390 and brought H2987 to Babylon H895, be returned H8421 and [fn]brought H1981 to their places H870 in the temple H1965 in Jerusalem H3390; and you shall deposit H5182 them in the house H1005 of God H426.'
Now in the twelfth H8147 H6240 month H2320 (that is, the month H2320 Adar H143), on the thirteenth H7969 H6240 [fn]day H3117 when H834 the king's H4428 word H1697 and law H1881 had reached the point for them to be done H6213, on the day H3117 when H834 the enemies H340 of the Jews H3064 hoped H7663 to gain H7980 power H7980 over H7980 them, it was turned H2015 around so that the Jews H3064 themselves H1992 gained H7980 power H7980 over H7980 those who hated H8130 them.
For I have given H5414 all H3605 this H2088 to my heart H3820 and explain H952 [fn]it that righteous H6662 men H6662, wise H2450 men H2450, and their service H5652 are in the hand H3027 of God H430. Man H120 does not know H3045 whether H1571 it will be love H160 or H1571 hatred H8135; anything H3605 may be before H6440 him.
For the fields H7709 of Heshbon H2809 have languished H535, the vines H1612 of Sibmah H7643 as well;
The lords H1167 of the nations H1471 have trampled H1986 down H1986 its choice H8291 clusters H8291
Which reached H5060 as far H5704 as Jazer H3270 and wandered H8582 to the deserts H4057;
Its tendrils H7976 spread H5203 themselves out H5203 and passed H5674 over H5674 the sea H3220.
They will be left H5800 together H3162 for mountain H2022 birds H5861 of H5861 prey H5861,
And for the beasts 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 beasts H929 of the earth H776 will spend H2778 harvest H2778 time H2778 on them.
Therefore H3651 through this H2088, Jacob's H3290 iniquity H5771 will be atoned H3722 for;
And this H2088 will be the whole H3605 fruit H6529 of the turning H5493 away H5493 of his sin H2403:
When he makes H7760 all H3605 the altar H4196 stones H68 like pulverized H5310 chalk H1615 stones H68,
When [fn]Asherim H842 and incense H2553 altars H2553 will not stand H6965.
Then He will give H5414 you rain H4306 for [fn]the seed H2233 which H834 you will sow H2232 in the ground H127, and bread H3899 from the produce H8393 of the ground H127, and it will be [fn]rich H1879 and fat H8082; on that day H3117 your livestock H4735 will graze H7462 in a roomy H7337 pasture H3733.
Shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442, O heavens H8064, for Yahweh H3068 has done H6213 it!
Make H7321 a H7321 loud H7321 shout H7321, you lower H8482 parts H8482 of the earth H776;
Break H6476 forth H6476 into a shout H7440 of H7440 joy H7440, you mountains H2022,
O forest H3293, and every H3605 tree H6086 in it;
For Yahweh H3068 has redeemed H1350 Jacob H3290
And in Israel H3478 He shows H6286 forth His beautiful H6286 glory H6286.
“But these H428 two H8147 things H8147 will come H935 on you suddenly H7281 in one H259 day H3117:
Loss H7908 of H7908 children H7908 and widowhood H489.
They will come H935 on you in full H8537 measure H8537
In spite of your many H7230 sorceries H3785,
In spite of the great H3966 might H6109 of your spells H2267.
“Shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442, O barren H6135 woman H6135, who has not H3808 given H3205 birth H3205;
Break H6476 forth H6476 into joyful H7440 shouting H7440 and cry H6670 aloud H6670, you who have not been in [fn]labor H2342;
For more H4480 numerous H7227 are the sons H1121 of the desolate H8074 one
Than H4480 the sons H1121 of the married H1166 woman,” says H559 Yahweh H3068.
“For you will go H3318 out H3318 with gladness H8057
And be led H2986 forth H2986 with peace H7965;
The mountains H2022 and the hills H1389 will break H6476 forth H6476 into shouts H7440 of H7440 joy H7440 before H6440 you,
And all H3605 the trees H6086 of the field H7704 will clap H4222 their hands H3709.
Even those I will bring H935 to My holy H6944 mountain H2022
And make H8055 them glad H8055 in My house H1004 of prayer H8605.
Their burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and their sacrifices H2077 will be acceptable H7522 on My altar H4196;
For My house H1004 will be called H7121 a house H1004 of prayer H8605 for all H3605 the peoples H5971.”
“Those from among you will rebuild H1129 the ancient H5769 waste H2723 places H2723;
You will raise H6965 up H6965 the foundations H4144 of past generation H1755 upon generation H1755;
And you will be called H7121 the repairer H1443 of the breach H6556,
The restorer H7725 of the paths H5410 for one to inhabit H3427.
“As for Me, this H2088 is My covenant H1285 with them,” says H559 Yahweh H3068: “My Spirit H7307 which H834 is upon you, and My words H1697 which H834 I have put H7760 in your mouth H6310, shall not depart H4185 from your mouth H6310, nor H3808 from the mouth H6310 of your seed H2233, nor H3808 from the mouth H6310 of your seed's H2233 seed H2233,” says H559 Yahweh H3068, “from now H6258 and forever H5704 H5769.”
“All H3605 the flocks H6629 of Kedar H6938 will be gathered H6908 together to you;
The rams H352 of Nebaioth H5032 will minister H8334 to you;
They will go H5927 up H5927 with acceptance H7522 on My altar H4196,
And I shall [fn]adorn H6286 My [fn]glorious H8597 house H1004 with beautiful H6286 glory H6286.
‘Do you not fear H3372 Me?' declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
‘Do you not tremble H2342 in My presence H6440?
For I have placed H7760 the sand H2344 as a boundary H1366 for the sea H3220,
A perpetual H5769 statute H2706, so it cannot H3808 cross H5674 over H5674 it.
Though the waves H1530 toss H1607, yet they cannot H3808 prevail H3201;
Though they roar H1993, yet they cannot H3808 cross H5674 over H5674 it.
‘And they will also bring H3318 out H3318 all H3605 your wives H802 and your sons H1121 to the Chaldeans H3778, and you yourself H859 will not escape H4422 from their hand H3027, but will be seized H8610 by the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, and this H2088 city H5892 will be burned H8313 with fire H784.'”
Then He brought H935 me into the inner H6442 court H2691 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068. And behold H2009, at the entrance H6607 to the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068, between H996 the porch H197 and the altar H4196, were about twenty-five H6242 H2568 men H376 with their backs H268 to the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068 and their faces H6440 toward the east H6924; and they were [fn]prostrating H2331 themselves eastward H6924 toward the sun H8121.
‘Thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, “On the day H3117 when it went H3381 down H3381 to Sheol H7585 I caused H56 mourning H56; I covered H3680 it with 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 [fn]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.
“And My holy H6944 name H8034 I will make H3045 known H3045 in the midst H8432 of My people H5971 Israel H3478; and I will not let H2490 My holy H6944 name H8034 be H2490 profaned H2490 anymore H5750. And the nations H1471 will know H3045 that I am Yahweh H3068, the Holy H6918 One H6918 in Israel H3478.
“And these H428 are the measurements H4060 of the altar H4196 by cubits H520 (the cubit H520 being a [fn]cubit H520 and a [fn]handbreadth H2948): the [fn]base H2436 shall be a cubit H520 and the width H7341 a cubit H520, and its border H1366 on its edge H8193 round H5439 about H5439 one H259 [fn]span H2239; and this H2088 shall be the height of the [fn]base H1354 of the altar H4196.
“Now these H428 are the names H8034 of the tribes H7626: from the northern H6828 extremity H7097, [fn]beside H413 H3027 the way H1870 of Hethlon H2855 to [fn]Lebo-hamath H935, as far as Hazar-enan H2704 at the border H1366 of Damascus H1834, toward the north H6828 [fn]beside H413 H3027 Hamath H2574, [fn]running H1961 from east H6921 to west H3220, Dan H1835, one H259 portion.
Then H116 Daniel H1841 answered H6032 and said H560 before H6925 the king H4430, “Let your gifts H4978 remain with you or give H3052 your rewards H5023 to someone H321 else H321; however H1297, I will read H7123 the writing H3792 to the king H4430 and make H3046 the interpretation H6591 known H3046 to him.
And behold H2009, one [fn]in the likeness H1823 of the sons H1121 of men H120 was touching H5060 my lips H8193; then I opened H6605 my mouth H6310 and spoke H1696 and said H559 to him who was standing H5975 before H5048 me, “O my lord H113, as a result of the vision that appeared H4759, pains H6735 have come H2015 upon me, and I have retained H6113 no H3808 might H3581.
So rejoice H1523, O sons H1121 of Zion H6726,
And be glad H8055 in Yahweh H3068 your God H430,
For He has given H5414 you [fn]the early H4175 rain H4175 in righteousness H6666.
And He has poured H3381 down H3381 for you the rain H1653,
The [fn]early H4175 and [fn]late H4456 rains H4456 [fn]as before H7223.
And it will be in that day H3117,
That the mountains H2022 will drip H5197 with [fn]sweet H6071 wine H6071,
And the hills H1389 will flow H1980 with milk H2461,
And all H3605 the brooks H650 of Judah H3063 will flow H1980 with water H4325;
And a spring H4599 will go H3318 out H3318 from the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068
Pass H5674 on over H5674 to Calneh H3641 and look H7200,
And go H1980 from there H8033 to Hamath H2574 the great H7227,
Then go H3381 down H3381 to Gath H1661 of the Philistines H6430.
Are [fn]they better H2896 than H4480 these H428 kingdoms H4467,
Or H518 are their borders H1366 greater H7227 than H4480 your borders H1366?
“Behold H2009, I am against H413 you,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635. “And I will burn H1197 up H1197 her chariots H7393 in smoke H6227, and a sword H2719 will devour H398 your young H3715 lions H3715; and I will cut H3772 off H3772 your prey H2964 from the land H776, and no H3808 longer H5750 will the voice H6963 of your messengers H4397 be heard H8085.”
Yet H1571 she became an exile H1473;
She went H1980 into captivity H7628;
Also H1571 her infants H5768 were dashed H7376 to H7376 pieces H7376
At the head H7218 of every H3605 street H2351;
They cast H3032 lots H1486 for her honorable H3513 men,
And all H3605 her great H1419 men H1419 were bound H7576 with fetters H2131.
Though H3588 the fig H8384 tree H8384 should not blossom H6524
And there H369 be H369 no H369 produce H2981 on the vines H1612,
Though the yield H4639 of the olive H2132 should fail H3584
And the fields H7709 yield H6213 no H3808 food H400,
Though the flock H6629 should be cut H1504 off H1504 from the fold H4356
And there H369 be H369 no H369 cattle H1241 in the stalls H7517,
Flocks H5739 will lie H7257 down H7257 in her midst H8432,
All H3605 the beasts H2416 of the nation H1471;
Both H1571 the [fn]pelican H6893 and the hedgehog H7090
Will lodge H3885 in [fn]the tops H3730 of H3730 her pillars H3730;
Their voice H6963 will sing H7891 in the window H2474,
For thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, “Behold H2009, I stretch H5186 out 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 played H8173 with H8173 on the knees H1290.
