Adam H121 [fn]had H3045 relations H3045 with his wife H802 again H5750; and she gave H3205 birth H3205 to a son H1121, and named H7121 H8034 him [fn]Seth H8352, for, she said, “God H430 [fn]has appointed H7896 me another H312 [fn]child H2233 in H8478 place H8478 of H8478 Abel H1893, because H3588 Cain H7014 killed H2026 him.”
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, for the Philistines H6430 had stopped H5640 them up H5640 after H310 the death H4194 of Abraham H85; and he [fn]gave H7121 them the same H8034 names H8034 which H834 his father H1 had [fn]given H7121 them.
Now it came H1961 about H1961, as H834 soon H834 as H834 Isaac H3327 had finished H3615 blessing H1288 Jacob H3290, and Jacob H3290 had hardly H389 H3318 gone H3318 out H3318 from the presence H6440 of his father H1 Isaac H3327, that his brother H251 Esau H6215 came H935 in H935 from his hunting H6718.
So Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 did H6213 just H3651 H834 as the LORD H3068 had commanded H6680. And he lifted H7311 up H7311 [fn]the staff H4294 and struck H5221 the water H4325 that was in the Nile H2975 in the sight H5869 of Pharaoh H6547 and in the sight H5869 of his servants H5650; and all H3605 the water H4325 that was in the Nile H2975 was turned H2015 into blood H1818.
Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Rise H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and present H3320 yourself before H6440 Pharaoh H6547, [fn]as he comes H3318 out H3318 to the water H4325; and say H559 to him, ‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: “Let H7971 My people H5971 go H7971, so that they may serve H5647 Me.
Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Rise H7925 up H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and stand H3320 before H6440 Pharaoh H6547 and say H559 to him, ‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of the Hebrews H5680 says H559: “Let H7971 My people H5971 go H7971, so that they may serve H5647 Me.
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.
There H8033 He made H7760 for them a statute H2706 and regulation H4941, and there H8033 He tested H5254 them.
Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Behold H2009, I will rain H4305 bread H3899 from heaven H8064 for you; and the people H5971 shall go H3318 out H3318 and gather H3950 a day's H3117 portion H1697 every day H3117, so H4616 that H4616 I may test H5254 them, whether or H518 not they will walk H1980 in My [fn]instruction H8451.
And all H3605 the people H5971 were watching H7200 and hearing the [fn]thunder H6963 and the lightning H3940 flashes H3940, and the sound H6963 of the trumpet H7782, and the mountain H2022 smoking H6226; and when the people H5971 saw H7200 it all, they trembled H5128 and stood H5975 at a distance H7350.
“If H3588 someone 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 person's H312 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.
“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),
And it came H1961 about H1961, as H834 soon H834 as H834 [fn]Moses approached H7126 the camp H4264, that he saw H7200 the calf H5695 and the people dancing H4246; and Moses' H4872 anger H639 burned H2734, and he threw H7993 the tablets H3871 from his hands H3027 and shattered H7665 them to H7665 pieces H7665 [fn]at H8478 the H8478 foot H8478 of H8478 the mountain H2022.
‘But if H518 [fn]he cannot H3808 afford H5060 H3027 a lamb H7716, then he shall bring H935 to the LORD H3068 his guilt H817 offering H817 for that in which H834 he has sinned H2398, two H8147 turtledoves H8449 or H176 two H8147 young H1121 doves H3123, one H259 as a sin H2403 offering H2403 and the other H259 as a burnt H5930 offering H5930.
‘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.
Then Moses H4872 spoke H1696 to Aaron H175, and to his surviving H3498 sons H1121, Eleazar H499 and Ithamar H385, “Take H3947 the grain offering H4503 that is left H3498 over H3498 from the LORD'S H3068 offerings H801 by H801 fire H801 and eat H398 it as unleavened H4682 bread H4682 beside H681 the altar H4196, for it is most H6944 holy H6944.
“If H518, on the other hand, the priest H3548 comes H935 in H935 and [fn]makes H7200 an H7200 inspection H7200 and the spot H5061 has not indeed H2009 spread H6581 in the house H1004 after H310 the house H1004 has been replastered H2902, then the priest H3548 shall pronounce H2891 the house H1004 clean H2891 because H3588 the spot H5061 has [fn]not H7495 reappeared H7495.
‘Now when H3588 the man H2100 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.
“Tell H1696 your brother H251 Aaron H175 that he shall not enter H935 at [fn]any H3605 time H6256 into the Holy H6944 Place H6944 inside H4480 H1004 the veil H6532, before H413 H6440 the [fn]atoning H3727 cover H3727 which H834 is on the ark H727, or H3808 he will die H4191; for I will appear H7200 in the cloud H6051 over H5921 the [fn]atoning H3727 cover H3727.
“Then he shall slaughter H7819 the goat H5795 of the sin H2403 offering H2403, which H834 is for the people H5971, and bring H935 its blood H1818 inside H413 H4480 H1004 the veil H6532 and do H6213 with its blood H1818 as he did H6213 with the blood H1818 of the bull H6499, and sprinkle H5137 it on the atoning H3727 cover H3727 and in front H6440 of the atoning H3727 cover H3727.
‘And anyone H376 from the house H1004 of Israel H3478, or from the strangers H1616 who reside H1481 among H8432 them, who H834 eats H398 any H3605 blood H1818, I will set H5414 My face H6440 against that person H5315 who eats H398 the blood H1818, and will cut H3772 him off H3772 from among H7130 his people H5971.
‘When you reap H7114 the harvest H7105 of your land H776, moreover, you shall not reap H7114 to the very H3615 edges H6285 of your field H7704 nor H3808 gather H3950 the gleaning H3951 of your harvest H7105; you are to leave H5800 them for the needy H6041 and the stranger H1616. I am the LORD H3068 your God H430.'”
‘These H428 are the appointed H4150 times H4150 of the LORD H3068 which H834 you shall proclaim H7121 as holy H6944 convocations H4744, to present H7126 offerings H801 by H801 fire H801 to the LORD H3068—burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and grain offerings H4503, sacrifices H2077 and drink H5262 offerings H5262, each day's H3117 matter H1697 on its own day H3117—
“Then you replied H6030 H559 to me, ‘We have sinned H2398 against the LORD H3068; we ourselves H587 will go H5927 up H5927 and fight H3898, just H3605 H834 as the LORD H3068 our God H430 commanded H6680 us.' And every H376 man H376 of you strapped H2296 on H2296 his weapons H3627 of war H4421, and you viewed H1951 it as H1951 easy H1951 to go H5927 up H5927 into the hill H2022 country H2022.
“Indeed H3588, ask H7592 now H4994 about the earlier H7223 days H3117 that were [fn]before H6440 your time, since H4480 the day H3117 that God H430 created H1254 [fn]mankind H120 on the earth H776, and inquire from one end H7097 of the heavens H8064 to the other H7097 H8064. Has anything been done H1961 like this H2088 great H1419 thing H1697, or H176 has anything been heard H8085 like H3644 it?
“However H7534, you may slaughter H2076 and eat H398 meat H1320 within any H3605 of your gates H8179, [fn]whatever H3605 you desire H185, according to the blessing H1293 of the LORD H3068 your God H430 which H834 He has given H5414 you; the unclean H2931 and the clean H2889 alike may eat H398 it, as the gazelle H6643 and the deer H354.
“Be H8104 careful H8104 and listen H8085 to all H3605 these H428 words H1697 which H834 I am commanding H6680 you, so H4616 that H4616 it may go H3190 well H3190 for you and your sons H1121 after H310 you forever H5704 H5769, for you will be doing H6213 what H2896 is H2896 good H2896 and right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 your God H430.
“If H3588 there is found H4672 in your midst H7130, in any H259 of your [fn]towns H8179 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 is giving H5414 you, a man H376 or H176 a woman H802 who H834 does H6213 what H7451 is H7451 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 your God H430, by violating H5674 His covenant H1285,
“If H3588 a case H1697 is H6381 too H4480 difficult H6381 for you to decide H4941, between H996 [fn]one kind of homicide H1818 or another H1818, between H996 [fn]one kind of lawsuit H1779 or another H1779, and between H996 [fn]one kind of assault H5061 or another H5061, that are cases H1697 of dispute H7379 in your [fn]courts H8179, then you shall arise H6965 and go H5927 up H5927 to the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 chooses H977.
“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?
“When H3588 brothers H251 live H3427 together H3162, and one H259 of them dies H4191 and has H369 no H369 son H1121, the wife H802 of the deceased H4191 shall not be married outside H2351 the family to a strange H2114 man H376. Her husband's H2993 brother H2993 shall have H935 relations H935 with H935 her and take H3947 her to himself as his wife H802, and perform H2992 the duty H2992 of H2992 a H2992 husband's H2992 brother H2992 to her.
“If H3588 two men H376, a man H376 and his countryman H251, have H5327 a H5327 fight H5327 [fn]with H3162 each H3162 other H3162, and the wife H802 of one H259 comes H7126 up H7126 to save H5337 her husband H376 from the hand H3027 of the one who is hitting H5221 him, and she reaches H7971 out H7971 with her hand H3027 and grasps H2388 [fn]that man's genitals H4016,
“When H3588 you have finished H3615 paying H6237 all H3605 the tithe H4643 of your produce H8393 in the third H7992 year H8141, the year H8141 of the tithe H4643, then you shall give H5414 it to the Levite H3881, to the stranger H1616, to the [fn]orphan H3490, and to the widow H490, so that they may eat H398 in your [fn]towns H8179 and be H7646 satisfied H7646.
Then the men H376 of Gibeon H1391 sent H7971 word to Joshua H3091 at the camp H4264 at Gilgal H1537, saying H559, “Do not [fn]abandon H7503 H3027 H4480 your servants H5650; come H5927 up H5927 to us quickly H4120 and save H3467 us and help H5826 us, for all H3605 the kings H4428 of the Amorites H567 that live H3427 in the hill H2022 country H2022 have assembled H6908 against H413 us.”
Then the sons H1121 of Judah H3063 approached H5066 Joshua H3091 in Gilgal H1537, and Caleb H3612 the son H1121 of Jephunneh H3312 the Kenizzite H7074 said H559 to him, “You know H3045 the word H1697 which H834 the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 to Moses H4872 the man H376 of God H430 on account H182 of [fn]you and me in Kadesh-barnea H6947.
Now the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068. So the LORD H3068 strengthened H2388 Eglon H5700 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 against H5921 Israel H3478, because H5921 H3588 they had done H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068.
Then 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.
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 LORD H3068 said H559 to Gideon H1439, “The people H5971 are still H5750 too many H7227; bring H3381 them down H3381 to the water H4325 and I will test H6884 them for you there H8033. So it shall be that he of whom H834 I say H559 to you, ‘This H2088 one H2088 shall go H1980 with you,' he shall go H1980 with you; but everyone H3605 of whom H834 I say H559 to you, ‘This H2088 one H2088 shall not go H1980 with you,' he shall not go H1980.”
Then Gideon H1439 sent H7971 messengers H4397 throughout H3605 the hill H2022 country H2022 of Ephraim H669, saying H559, “Come H3381 down H3381 [fn]against H7122 Midian H4080 and take H3920 control H3920 of the waters H4325 ahead of them, as far H5704 as Beth-barah H1012 and the Jordan H3383.” So all H3605 the men H376 of Ephraim H669 were summoned H6817, and they took H3920 control H3920 of the waters H4325 as far H5704 as Beth-barah H1012 and the Jordan H3383.
Then the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068, and they served H5647 the Baals H1168 and the Ashtaroth H6252, the gods H430 of Aram H758, the gods H430 of Sidon H6721, the gods H430 of Moab H4124, the gods H430 of the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983, and the gods H430 of the Philistines H6430; so they abandoned H5800 the LORD H3068 and did not serve H5647 Him.
Then it came H1961 about H1961 on the [fn]fourth day H3117 that they said H559 to Samson's H8123 wife H802, “Entice H6601 your husband H376, so that he will tell H5046 us the riddle H2420, or H6435 we will burn H8313 you and your father's H1 house H1004 with fire H784. Have you invited H7121 us to impoverish H3423 us? Is this not so?”
“What H4100 is sweeter H4966 than H4480 honey H1706?
And what H4100 is stronger H5794 than H4480 a lion H738?”
And he said H559 to them,
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 Delilah H1807 saw H7200 that he had told H5046 her all H3605 that was in his heart H3820, she sent H7971 word and called H7121 the governors 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 governors H5633 of the Philistines H6430 came H5927 up H5927 to her and brought H5927 up H5927 the money H3701 in their hands H3027.
Then Samson H8123 called H7121 to the LORD H3068 and said H559, “Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068, please H4994 remember H2142 me and please H4994 strengthen H2388 me just H389 this H2088 time H6471, O God H430, that I may at once H259 take vengeance H5358 on the Philistines H6430 for my two H8147 eyes H5869.”
When her master H113 got H6965 up H6965 in the morning H1242 and opened H6605 the doors H1817 of the house H1004 and went H3318 out H3318 to go H1980 on his way H1870, then behold H2009, his concubine H6370 was lying H5307 at the doorway H6607 of the house H1004 with her hands H3027 on the threshold H5592.
Now this H2088 was the custom in former H6440 times H6440 in Israel H3478 concerning H5921 the redemption H1353 and the exchange H8545 of land to confirm H6965 any H3605 matter H1697: a man H376 removed H8025 his sandal H5275 and gave H5414 it to another H7453; and this H2088 was the way of confirmation H8584 in Israel H3478.
Then they got H7925 up H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and worshiped H2331 before H6440 the LORD H3068, and returned H7725 H935 again H7725 to their house H1004 in Ramah H7414. And Elkanah H511 [fn]had H3045 relations H3045 with Hannah H2584 his wife H802, and the LORD H3068 remembered H2142 her.
Now Saul H7586 chose H977 for himself three H7969 thousand H505 men of Israel H3478, of whom two H505 thousand H505 were with Saul H7586 in Michmash H4363 and in the hill H2022 country H2022 of Bethel H1008, while a thousand H505 were with Jonathan H3083 at Gibeah H1390 of Benjamin H1144. But he sent H7971 the rest H3499 of the people H5971 away H7971, each H376 to his tent H168.
Then Jonathan H3083 said H559 to the young H5288 man H5288 who was carrying H5375 his armor H3627, “Come H1980, and let's cross H5674 over H5674 to the garrison H4673 of these H428 uncircumcised H6189 men; perhaps H194 the LORD H3068 will work H6213 for us, because H3588 the LORD H3068 is not limited H4622 to saving H3467 by many H7227 or H176 by few H4592!”
Then Saul H7586 said H559, “Let's go H3381 down H3381 after H310 the Philistines H6430 by night H3915 and take H962 plunder H962 among them until H5704 the morning H1242 light H216, and let's not leave H7604 a man H376 among them alive H7604.” And they said H559, “Do H6213 whatever H3605 seems good H2896 [fn]to you.” So the priest H3548 said H559, “Let's approach H7126 God H430 here H1988.”
Then Saul H7586 said H559 to Samuel H8050, “I did obey H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068, for I went H1980 on the [fn]mission H1870 on which H834 the LORD H3068 sent H7971 me; and I have brought H935 Agag H90 the king H4428 of Amalek H6002, and have completely H2763 destroyed H2763 the Amalekites H6002.
“Does the LORD H3068 have as much delight H2656 in burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and sacrifices H2077
As in obeying H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068?
Behold H2009, to obey H8085 is better H2896 than H4480 a sacrifice H2077,
And to pay H7181 attention H7181 is better than H4480 the fat H2459 of rams H352.
Now the LORD H3068 said H559 to Samuel H8050, “How H4970 long H5704 are you going to mourn H56 for [fn]Saul H7586, since I have rejected H3988 him from being H4427 king H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478? Fill H4390 your horn H7161 with oil H8081 and go H1980; I will send H7971 you to Jesse H3448 the Bethlehemite H1022, because H3588 I have chosen H7200 a king H4428 for Myself among his sons H1121.”
Then Saul H7586 became H2734 very H3966 angry H2734, for this H2088 lyric H1697 [fn]displeased H7489 H5869 him; and he said H559, “They have given H5414 David H1732 credit for ten H7233 thousands H7233, but to me they have given H5414 credit for only thousands H505! Now what more H5750 can he have but the kingdom H4410?”
Now there was a man H376 in Maon H4584 whose business H4639 was in Carmel H3760; and the man H376 was very H3966 [fn]rich H1419, and he had three H7969 thousand H505 sheep H6629 and a thousand H505 goats H5795. And it came H1961 about H1961 while he was shearing H1494 his sheep H6629 in Carmel H3760
“But the poor H7326 man had nothing H369 at all H3605 except H3588 H518 one H259 little H6996 ewe H3535 lamb H3535
Which H834 he bought H7069 and nurtured H2421;
And it grew H1431 up H1431 together H3162 with him and his children H1121.
It would eat H398 [fn]scraps H6595 from him and drink H8354 from his cup H3563 and lie H7901 [fn]in his lap H2436,
And was like a daughter H1323 to him.
Then Absalom H53 her brother H251 said H559 to her, “Has Amnon H550 your brother H251 been H1961 with you? But now H6258 keep H2790 silent H2790, my sister H269, he is your brother H251; do not take H7896 this H2088 matter H1697 to heart H3820.” So Tamar H8559 remained H3427 and was H8074 isolated H8074 in her brother H251 Absalom's H53 house H1004.
It came H1961 about H1961 after H310 they had departed H1980, that they came H5927 up H5927 out of the well H875 and went H1980 and reported H5046 to King H4428 David H1732; and they said H559 to David H1732, “Set H6965 out H6965 and cross H5674 over H5674 the water H4325 quickly H4120, because H3588 this H3602 is H3602 what H3602 Ahithophel H302 has advised H3289 against H5921 you.”
Now Absalom H53 encountered H7122 the servants H5650 of David H1732. Absalom H53 was riding H7392 on his mule H6505, and the mule H6505 went H935 under H8478 the branches H7730 of a massive H1419 oak H424. Then his head H7218 caught H2388 firmly H2388 in the oak H424, and he was [fn]left H5414 hanging H5414 between H996 the sky H8064 and earth H776, while the mule H6505 that was under H8478 him kept H5674 going H5674.
[fn]Then the king H4428 trembled H7264 and went H5927 up H5927 to the chamber H5944 over H5944 the gate H8179 and wept H1058. And this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 he said H559 as he walked H1980: “My son H1121 Absalom H53, my son H1121, my son H1121 Absalom H53! If H4310 H5414 only H4310 H5414 I had died H4191 instead H8478 of H8478 you, Absalom H53, my son H1121, my son H1121!”
Now there was a famine H7458 in the days H3117 of David H1732 for three H7969 years H8141, year H8141 after H310 year H8141; and David H1732 sought H1245 the presence H6440 of the LORD H3068. And the LORD H3068 said H559, “It is because H413 of Saul H7586 and his bloody H1818 house H1004, because H5921 H834 he put H4191 the Gibeonites H1393 to H4191 death H4191.”
Now David's H1732 heart H3820 [fn]troubled H5221 him after H310 H3651 he had counted H5608 the people H5971. So David H1732 said H559 to the LORD H3068, “I have sinned H2398 greatly H3966 in what H834 I have done H6213. But now H6258, LORD H3068, please H4994 [fn]overlook H5674 the guilt H5771 of Your servant H5650, for I have acted H5528 very H3966 foolishly H5528.”
And his house H1004 where H834 H8033 he was to live H3427, the other H312 courtyard H2691 inward H4480 H1004 from the hall H197, was of this H2088 same workmanship H4639. He also made H6213 a house H1004 like this H2088 hall H197 for Pharaoh's H6547 daughter H1323, whom H834 Solomon H8010 had married H3947.
So all H3605 the work H4399 that King H4428 Solomon H8010 performed H6213 in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 was finished H7999. And Solomon H8010 brought H935 in H935 the offerings H6944 vowed 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 the LORD H3068.
Now an old H2205 prophet H5030 was living H3427 in Bethel H1008; and his [fn]sons H1121 came H935 and told H5608 him all H3605 the deeds 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 reported H5608 to their father H1.
Now when the prophet H5030 who H834 had brought H7725 him back H7725 from the way H1870 heard H8085 about it, he said H559, “It is the man H376 of God H430, who H834 [fn]disobeyed H4784 the [fn]command H6310 of the LORD H3068; therefore the LORD H3068 has given H5414 him to the lion H738, which has torn H7665 him and killed H4191 him, in accordance with the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 which H834 He spoke H1696 to him.”
After H310 this H2088 event H1697, Jeroboam H3379 did not [fn]abandon H7725 his evil H7451 way H1870, but he again H7725 [fn]appointed H6213 priests H3548 of the high H1116 places H1116 from [fn]all H7098 the people H5971; anyone who wanted H2655, he ordained H4390 H3027, and he became [fn]one of the priests H3548 of the high H1116 places H1116.
Now Rehoboam H7346 the son H1121 of Solomon H8010 reigned H4427 in Judah H3063. Rehoboam H7346 was forty-one H705 H259 years H8141 old H1121 when he became H4427 king H4427, and he reigned H4427 for seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 in Jerusalem H3389, the city H5892 which H834 the LORD H3068 had chosen H977 from all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to put H7760 His name H8034 there H8033. And his mother's H517 name H8034 was Naamah H5279 the Ammonitess H5985.
So He said H559, “Go H3318 out H3318 and stand H5975 on the mountain H2022 before H6440 the LORD H3068.” And behold H2009, the LORD H3068 was passing H5674 by H5674! And a great H1419 and powerful H2389 wind H7307 was tearing H6561 out H6561 the mountains H2022 and breaking H7665 the rocks H5553 in H7665 pieces H7665 before H6440 the LORD H3068; but the LORD H3068 was not in the wind H7307. And after H310 the wind H7307 there was an earthquake H7494, but the LORD H3068 was not in the earthquake H7494.
Then the king H4428 of Israel H3478 summoned H7121 all H3605 the elders H2205 of the land H776 and said H559, “Please H4994 be H3045 aware H3045 and see H7200 that this H2088 man is looking H1245 for H1245 trouble H7451; for he sent H7971 me his demand for my wives H802, my children H1121, my silver H3701, and my gold H2091, and I did not refuse H4513 him.”
Now one man H376 drew H4900 his bow H7198 at random H8537 and struck H5221 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 [fn]in a joint H1694 of the armor H8302. So he said H559 to the driver H7395 of H7395 his chariot H7395, “Turn H2015 [fn]around H3027 and take H3318 me out H3318 of the battle H4264, for I am H2470 severely H2470 wounded H2470.”
So Ahaziah died H4191 in accordance with the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 which H834 Elijah H452 had spoken H1696. And since H3588 he had H1961 no H3808 son H1121, Jehoram H3088 became H4427 king H4427 in H8478 his place H8478 in the second H8147 year H8141 of Jehoram H3088 the son H1121 of Jehoshaphat H3092, king H4428 of Judah H3063.
But Gehazi H1522, the servant H5288 of Elisha H477 the man H376 of God H430, [fn]thought H559, “Behold H2009, my master H113 has spared H2820 this H2088 Naaman H5283 the Aramean H761, [fn]by not accepting H3947 from his hand H3027 what H834 he brought H935. As the LORD H3068 lives H2416, I will run H7323 after H310 him and take H3947 something H3972 from him.”
Then he said H559 to him, “Did my heart H3820 not 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 accept H3947 money H3701 and to accept H3947 clothes H899, olive H2132 groves H2132, vineyards H3754, sheep H6629, oxen H1241, and male H5650 and female H8198 slaves H5650 H8198?
Now when he had gone H1980 from there H8033, he [fn]encountered H4672 Jehonadab H3082 the son H1121 of Rechab H7394 coming to meet H7122 him; and he [fn]greeted H1288 him and said H559 to him, “Is your heart H3824 right H3477, just H834 as H834 my heart H3824 is with your heart H3824?” And Jehonadab H3082 [fn]answered H559, “It is.” Jehu said, “If it is, give H5414 me your hand H3027.” And he gave H5414 him his hand H3027, and he pulled H5927 him up H5927 to him into the chariot H4818.
So the captains H8269 of hundreds H3967 acted H6213 in accordance with everything H3605 that Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 commanded H6680. And each H376 one H376 of them took H3947 his men H376 who were to come H935 in H935 on the Sabbath H7676, along H5973 with H5973 those who were to go H3318 out H3318 on the Sabbath H7676, and they came H935 to Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548.
Then Jehoash H3060 said H559 to the priests H3548, “All H3605 the money H3701 of the sacred H6944 offerings H6944 which H834 is brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, in current H5674 money H3701, both the money H3701 of each H376 man's H376 assessment H6187 and all H3605 the money H3701 [fn]which H834 anyone's H376 heart H3820 prompts H5927 H5921 him to bring H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068,
Instead, Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 [fn]took H3947 a chest H727 and drilled H5344 a hole H2356 in its lid H1817 and put H5414 it beside H681 the altar H4196, on the right H3225 side H3225 as one H376 comes H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068; and the priests H3548 who guarded H8104 the threshold H5592 put H5414 in it all H3605 the money H3701 that was brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068.
Now King H4428 Ahaz H271 went H1980 to Damascus H1834 to meet H7122 Tiglath-pileser H8407 king H4428 of Assyria H804, and he saw H7200 the altar H4196 which H834 was at Damascus H1834; and King H4428 Ahaz H271 sent H7971 to Urijah H223 the priest H3548 the [fn]pattern H1823 of the altar H4196 and its model H8403, according to all H3605 its workmanship H4639.
Then the king H4428 of Assyria H804 issued H6680 commands H6680, saying H559, “Take H1980 one H259 of the priests H3548 there H8033 whom H834 you led H1540 into H1540 [fn]exile H1540, and have [fn]him go H1980 and live H3427 there H8033; and have him teach H3384 them the custom H4941 of the God H430 of the land H776.”
To this H2088 day H3117 they act H6213 in accordance with the earlier H7223 customs H4941: they do not fear H3372 the LORD H3068, nor H369 do they [fn]follow H6213 their statutes H2708, their ordinances H4941, the Law H8451, or the commandments H4687 which H834 the LORD H3068 commanded H6680 the sons H1121 of Jacob H3290, whom H834 He named H7760 H8034 Israel H3478.
‘Through H3027 your messengers H4397 you have taunted H2778 the Lord H136,
And you have said H559, “With my many H7230 chariots H7393
I went 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 choicest H4004 junipers H1265.
And I entered H935 its farthest H7093 resting H4411 place H4411, its thickest H3759 forest H3293.
Then it happened H1961 that night H3915 that the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 went H3318 out H3318 and struck H5221 185,000 H3967 H8084 H2568 H505 in the camp H4264 of the Assyrians H804; and when the rest got H7925 up H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242, behold H2009, all H3605 of [fn]the 185,000 were [fn]dead H4191 H6297.
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Hezekiah H2396 and all H3605 his might H1369, and how H834 he constructed 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?
Furthermore H1571, Manasseh H4519 shed H8210 very H3966 much H7235 innocent H5355 blood H1818 until H5704 H834 he had filled H4390 Jerusalem H3389 [fn]from one H6310 end H6310 to another H6310, besides H905 H4480 his sin H2403 into which H834 he misled H2398 Judah H3063, in doing H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068.
Furthermore H1571, the altar H4196 that was at Bethel H1008 and the high H1116 place H1116 which H834 Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028, who H834 misled H2398 Israel H3478 into H2398 sin H2398, had made H6213, even H1571 that altar H4196 and the high H1116 place H1116 he tore H5422 down H5422. Then he burned H8313 the high H1116 place H1116, ground H1854 the remains to dust H6083, and burned H8313 the Asherah H842.
But Aaron H175 and his sons H1121 [fn]offered H6999 on the altar H4196 of burnt H5930 offering H5930 and on the altar H4196 of incense H7004, for all H3605 the work H4399 of the Most H6944 Holy H6944 Place H6944, and to make H3722 atonement H3722 for Israel H3478, in accordance with everything H3605 that Moses H4872 the servant H5650 of God H430 had commanded H6680.
Now David H1732 assembled H6950 at Jerusalem H3389 all H3605 the officials H8269 of Israel H3478, the leaders H8269 of the tribes H7626, and the commanders H8269 of the divisions H4256 that served H8334 the king H4428, the commanders H8269 of thousands H505, and the commanders H8269 of hundreds H3967, and the overseers H8269 of all H3605 the property H7399 and livestock H4735 belonging to the king H4428 and his sons H1121, with the officials H5631 and the mighty H1368 men H1368, all H3605 the valiant H2428 warriors H1368.
So all H3605 the work H4399 that Solomon H8010 performed H6213 for the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 was finished H7999. And Solomon H8010 brought H935 in H935 the [fn]things that his father H1 David H1732 had dedicated H6944, the silver H3701, 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.
“Also H1571 concerning H413 the foreigner H5237 who H834 is not from Your people H5971 Israel H3478, when he comes H935 from a far H7350 country H776 on account H4616 of Your great H1419 name H8034 and Your mighty H2389 hand H3027 and Your outstretched H5186 arm H2220, when they come H935 and pray H6419 toward H413 this H2088 house H1004,
Then Solomon H8010 consecrated H6942 the middle H8432 of the courtyard H2691 that was before H6440 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, for he offered H6213 the burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and the fat H2459 of the peace H8002 offerings H8002 there H8033, because H3588 the bronze H5178 altar H4196 which H834 Solomon H8010 had made H6213 was H3201 not able H3201 to contain H3557 the burnt H5930 offering H5930, the grain offering H4503, and the fat H2459.
Now when the queen H4436 of Sheba H7614 heard H8085 about the fame H8088 of Solomon H8010, she came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 to test H5254 Solomon H8010 with riddles H2420. She had a very H3966 large H3515 entourage H2428, with camels H1581 carrying H5375 balsam H1314 oil H1314 and a large H7230 amount H7230 of gold H2091 and precious H3368 stones H68; and when she came H935 to Solomon H8010, she spoke H1696 with him about everything H3605 that was on her heart H3824.
So King H4428 Rehoboam H7346 became H2388 powerful H2388 in Jerusalem H3389 and reigned H4427 there. For Rehoboam H7346 was forty-one H705 H259 years H8141 old H1121 when he began to reign H4427, and he reigned H4427 for seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 in Jerusalem H3389, the city H5892 which H834 the LORD H3068 had chosen H977 from all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478, to put H7760 His name H8034 there H8033. And his mother's H517 name H8034 was Naamah H5279 the Ammonitess H5985.
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 took H2388 courage H2388 and removed H5674 the abominable 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 restored H2318 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 which H834 was in front H6440 of the porch H197 of the LORD H3068.
He also H1571 removed H5493 Maacah H4601, the mother H517 of King H4428 Asa H609, from the position of queen H1377 mother H1377, because H834 she had made H6213 an abominable H4656 image H4656 [fn]as an Asherah H842, and Asa H609 cut H3772 down H3772 her abominable H4656 image H4656, crushed H1854 it, and burned H8313 it at the brook H5158 Kidron H6939.
When they left H1980 him (for they left H5800 him very H7227 sick H4251), his own servants H5650 conspired H7194 against H5921 him because of the blood H1818 of the [fn]son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548, and they murdered H2026 him on his bed H4296. So he died H4191, and they buried H6912 him in the city H5892 of David H1732, but they did not bury H6912 him in the tombs H6913 of the kings H4428.
But when he became H2393 strong H2393, his heart H3820 was H1361 so [fn]proud H1361 that he acted H7843 corruptly H7843, and he was H4603 untrue H4603 to the LORD H3068 his God H430, for he entered H935 the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 to burn H6999 incense H6999 on the altar H4196 of incense H7004.
He then stationed H5975 the Levites H3881 in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 with cymbals H4700, harps H5035, and lyres H3658, according to the command H4687 of David H1732 and of Gad H1410, the king's H4428 seer H2374, and of Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030; for the command H4687 was from the LORD H3068 through H3027 His prophets H5030.
Now Hezekiah H2396 sent H7971 word to all H3605 Israel H3478 and Judah H3063 and also H1571 wrote H3789 letters H107 to Ephraim H669 and Manasseh H4519, that they should come H935 to the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 in Jerusalem H3389 to [fn]celebrate H6213 the Passover H6453 to the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478.
Now after H310 this H3651 he built H1129 the outer H2435 wall H2346 of the city H5892 of David H1732 on the west H4628 side H4628 of Gihon H1521, in the valley H5158, up to the entrance H935 of the Fish H1709 Gate H8179; and he encircled H5437 the Ophel H6077 with it and made H1361 it very H3966 high H1361. Then he put H7760 army H2428 commanders H8269 in all H3605 the fortified H1219 cities H5892 in Judah H3063.
Josiah H2977 contributed H7311 to the lay H1121 people H5971, to all H3605 who were H4672 present H4672, flocks H6629 of lambs H3532 and young H1121 H5795 goats H1121 H5795, all H3605 for the Passover H6453 offerings H6453, numbering H4557 thirty H7970 thousand H505, plus three H7969 thousand H505 bulls H1241; these H428 were from the king's H4428 property H7399.
Now in the first H259 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539—in order to fulfill H3615 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 by the mouth H6310 of Jeremiah H3414—the LORD H3068 stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539 so that he sent H5674 a proclamation H6963 throughout H3605 his kingdom H4438, and also H1571 put it in writing H4385, saying H559,
Now in the first H259 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539, in order to fulfill H3615 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 by the mouth H6310 of Jeremiah H3414, the LORD H3068 stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539, so that he sent H5674 a proclamation H6963 throughout H3605 his kingdom H4438, and also H1571 put it in writing H4385, saying H559:
Then the heads H7218 of fathers' H1 households of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 and the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 rose H6965 up H6965, everyone H3605 whose spirit H7307 God H430 had stirred H5782 to go H5927 up H5927 to rebuild H1129 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 which H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.
But the exiles H1121 H1473 did H6213 so H3651. And [fn]Ezra H5830 the priest H3548 selected H914 men H376 who were the heads H7218 of fathers' H1 households for each of their father's H1 households H1004, all H3605 of them by name H8034. So they [fn]convened H3427 on the first H259 day H3117 of the tenth H6224 month H2320 to investigate H1875 the matter H1697.
Then I said H559 to them, “You see H7200 the bad H7451 situation H7451 we are in, that Jerusalem H3389 is desolate H2720 and its gates H8179 have been burned H3341 by fire H784. Come H1980, let's rebuild H1129 the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 so that we will no H3808 longer H5750 be a disgrace H2781.”
Shallum H7968 the son H1121 of Col-hozeh H3626, the official H8269 of the district H6418 of Mizpah H4709, repaired H2388 the Fountain H5869 Gate H8179. He built H1129 it, made H2926 a H2926 roof H2926 for it, and installed H5975 its doors H1817 with its bolts H4514 and its bars H1280, and the wall H2346 of the Pool H1295 of Shelah H7975 at the king's H4428 garden H1588 as far H5704 as the steps H4609 that descend H3381 from the city H5892 of David H1732.
Now when H834 it was reported H8085 to Sanballat H5571, Tobiah H2900, Geshem H1654 the Arab H6163, and to the rest H3499 of our enemies H340 that I had rebuilt H1129 the wall H2346, and that no H3808 breach H6556 was left H3498 in it, although H1571 at that time H6256 I had not installed H5975 the doors H1817 in the gates H8179,
And all H3605 the people H5971 gathered H622 as one H259 person H376 at the public H7339 square H7339 which H834 was in front H6440 of the Water H4325 Gate H8179, and they [fn]asked H559 Ezra H5830 the scribe H5608 to bring H935 the Book H5612 of the Law H8451 of Moses H4872 which H834 the LORD H3068 had [fn]given H6680 to Israel H3478.
“But as soon as they had H5117 rest H5117, they did H6213 evil H7451 again H7725 before H6440 You;
Therefore You abandoned H5800 them to the hand H3027 of their enemies H340, so that they ruled H7287 over them.
When they cried H2199 out H2199 again H7725 to You, You heard H8085 from heaven H8064,
And many H7227 times H6256 You rescued H5337 them according to Your compassion H7356,
“Now H6258 then, our God H430, the great H1419, the mighty H1368, and the awesome H3372 God H410, who keeps H8104 His covenant H1285 and faithfulness H2617,
Do not let all H3605 the hardship H8513 seem H4591 insignificant H4591 before H6440 You,
Which H834 has happened H4672 to H4672 us, our kings H4428, our leaders H8269, our priests H3548, our prophets H5030, our fathers H1, and to all H3605 Your people H5971,
From the days H3117 of the kings H4428 of Assyria H804 to this H2088 day H3117.
Likewise we cast H5307 lots H1486 for the supply H7133 of wood H6086 among the priests H3548, the Levites H3881, and the people H5971 so that they could bring H935 it to the house H1004 of our God H430, according to our fathers' H1 households H1004, at set H2163 times H6256 annually H8141, to burn H1197 on the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 our God H430, as it is written H3789 in the Law H8451;
The king H4428 loved H157 Esther H635 more H4480 than H4480 all H3605 the women H802, and she found H5375 favor H2580 and kindness H2617 with him more H4480 than H4480 all H3605 the virgins H1330, so that he set H7760 the royal H4438 turban H3804 on her head H7218 and made H4427 her queen H4427 in H8478 place H8478 of H8478 Vashti H2060.
In the first H7223 month H2320, which H1931 is the month H2320 Nisan H5212, in the twelfth H8147 H6240 year H8141 of King H4428 Ahasuerus H325, [fn]Pur H6332, that is the lot H1486, was cast H5307 before H6440 Haman H2001 from day H3117 to day H3117 and from month H2320 to month, [fn]until the twelfth H8147 H6240 month H2320, that is the month H2320 Adar H143.
Then Esther's H635 attendants H5291 and her eunuchs H5631 came H935 and informed H5046 her, and the queen H4436 was seized H2342 by H2342 great H3966 fear H2342. And she sent H7971 garments H899 to clothe H3847 Mordecai H4782 so that he would remove H5493 his sackcloth H8242 from him, but he did not accept H6901 them.
Now it came H1961 about 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 courtyard H2691 of the king's H4428 palace 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 the palace H1004.
It came H1961 about H1961 after H310 the LORD H3068 had spoken H1696 these H428 words H1697 to Job H347, that the LORD H3068 said H559 to Eliphaz H464 the Temanite H8489, “My wrath H639 is kindled H2734 against you and against your two H8147 friends H7453, because H3588 you have not spoken H1696 of Me what H3559 is H3559 trustworthy H3559, as My servant H5650 Job H347 has.
Like sheep H6629 they sink H7743 down H7743 to [fn]Sheol H7585;
Death H4194 will be their shepherd H7462;
And the upright H3477 will rule H7287 over them in the morning H1242,
And their form H6736 shall be for [fn]Sheol H7585 to consume H1086
[fn]So H4480 that H4480 they have no H4480 lofty H2073 home H2073.
For the music director; according to [fn]Mahalath. A [fn]Maskil of David.
The fool H5036 has said H559 in his heart H3820, “There H369 is H369 no H369 God H430.”
They are H7843 corrupt H7843, and have committed H8581 abominable H8581 injustice H5766;
There H369 is H369 no H369 one H369 who does H6213 good H2896.
For the music director; set to [fn]Al-tashheth. A [fn]Mikhtam of David, [fn]when he fled from Saul in the cave.
Be H2603 gracious H2603 to me, God H430, be H2603 gracious H2603 to me,
For my soul H5315 takes H2620 refuge H2620 in You;
And in the shadow H6738 of Your wings H3671 I will take H2620 refuge H2620
And many H7227 peoples H5971 will come H1980 and say H559,
“Come H1980, let's go H5927 up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of the LORD H3068,
To the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290;
So that He may teach H3384 us [fn]about H4480 His ways H1870,
And that we may walk H1980 in His paths H734.”
For [fn]the law H8451 will go H3318 out H3318 from Zion H6726
Therefore H3651, as a tongue H3956 of fire H784 consumes H398 stubble H7179,
And dry H2842 grass H2842 collapses H7503 in the flame H3852,
So their root H8328 will become H1961 like rot H4716, and their blossom H6525 [fn]blow H5927 away H5927 like dust H80;
For they have rejected H3988 the Law H8451 of the LORD H3068 of armies H6635,
And discarded H5006 the word H565 of the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478.
Now therefore H3651, behold H2009, the Lord H136 is about to bring H5927 on them the strong H6099 and abundant H7227 waters H4325 of the Euphrates River H5104,
That is, the king H4428 of Assyria H804 and all H3605 his glory H3519;
And it will rise H5927 over H5921 all H3605 its channels H650 and go H1980 over H5921 all H3605 its banks H1415.
So it will be that when H3588 the Lord H136 has completed H1214 all H3605 His work H4639 on Mount H2022 Zion H6726 and on Jerusalem H3389, He will say, “I will [fn]punish H6485 the fruit H6529 of the arrogant H1433 heart H3824 of the king H4428 of Assyria H804 and the arrogant H7312 pride H8597 of his eyes H5869.”
Now on that day H3117 the remnant H7605 of Israel H3478, and those of the house H1004 of Jacob H3290 who H6413 have escaped H6413, will no H3808 longer H3254 H5750 rely H8172 on the one who struck H5221 them, but will truly H571 rely H8172 on the LORD H3068, the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478.
Then it will happen H1961 on that day H3117 that the Lord H136
Will again H3254 recover H7069 with His hand H3027 the second H8145 time H8145
The remnant H7605 of His people H5971 who H834 will remain H7604,
From Assyria H804, Egypt H4714, Pathros H6624, Cush H3568, Elam H5867, Shinar H8152, Hamath H2574,
At that time H6256 a gift H7862 of H7862 tribute H7862 will be brought H2986 to the LORD H3068 of armies H6635
[fn]From a people H5971 [fn]tall H4900 and smooth H4803,
From a people H5971 feared H3372 [fn]far H4480 H1931 and wide H1973,
A powerful H6978 and oppressive H4001 nation H1471,
Whose H834 land H776 the rivers H5104 divide H958—
To the place H4725 of the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, to Mount H2022 Zion H6726.
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.
It will come H1961 about H1961 at the end H7093 of seventy H7657 years H8141 that the LORD H3068 will visit H6485 Tyre H6865. Then she will go H7725 back H7725 to her prostitute's H868 wages H868 and commit H2181 prostitution H2181 with all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 [fn]on the face H6440 of the earth H127.
When its limbs H7105 are H3001 dry H3001, they are broken H7665 off;
Women H802 come H935 and make H215 a H215 fire H215 with them,
For they are not a people H5971 of discernment H998,
Therefore H5921 H3651 their Maker H6213 will not have H7355 compassion H7355 on H7355 them.
And their Creator H3335 will not be H2603 gracious H2603 to them.
And these H428 also H1571 reel H7686 with wine H3196 and stagger H8582 from intoxicating H7941 drink H7941:
The priest H3548 and the prophet H5030 reel H7686 with intoxicating H7941 drink H7941,
They are confused H1104 by wine H3196, they stagger H8582 from intoxicating H7941 drink H7941;
Then you will be brought H8213 low H8213;
From the earth H776 you will speak H1696,
And from the dust H6083 where you are prostrate H7817
Your words H565 will come.
Your voice H6963 will also be like that of a [fn]spirit H178 from the ground H776,
And your speech H565 will whisper H6850 from the dust H6083.
It will be as when H834 a hungry H7457 person H7457 dreams H2492—
And behold H2009, he is eating H398;
But when he awakens H6974, his [fn]hunger H5315 is not satisfied H7386,
Or as when H834 a thirsty H6771 person H6771 dreams H2492—
And behold H2009, he is drinking H8354,
But when he awakens H6974, behold H2009, he is faint H5889
And his [fn]thirst H5315 is not quenched H8264.
So H3651 will the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 be
Who wage H6633 war H6633 against H5921 Mount H2022 Zion H6726.
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.”
“Through H3027 your servants H5650 you have taunted 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 junipers H1265.
And I will come H935 to its [fn]highest H4791 peak H7093, its thickest H3759 forest H3293.
“Then this H2088 shall be the sign H226 for you: [fn]you will eat H398 this year H8141 what H5599 grows H5599 of H5599 itself H5599, in the second H8145 year H8141 what H7823 grows H7823 from the same, and in the third H7992 year H8141 sow H2232, harvest H7114, plant H5193 vineyards H3754, and eat H398 their fruit H6529.
“I will lead H1980 those who are blind H5787 by a way H1870 they have not known H3045,
In paths H5410 they have not known H3045 I will guide H1869 them.
I will turn H7760 darkness H4285 into light H216 before H6440 them
And uneven H4625 land H4625 into plains H4334.
“I will feed H398 your oppressors H3238 with their own flesh H1320,
And they will become H7937 drunk H7937 with their own blood H1818 as with sweet H6071 wine H6071;
And [fn]humanity H1320 will know H3045 that I, the LORD H3068, am your Savior H3467
And your Redeemer H1350, the Mighty H46 One H46 of Jacob H3290.”
That you have forgotten H7911 the LORD H3068 your Maker H6213,
Who stretched H5186 out H5186 the heavens H8064
And laid H3245 the foundations H3245 of the earth H776,
That you fear H6342 continually H8548 all H3605 day H3117 long because H4480 H6440 of the fury H2534 of the oppressor H6693,
Even those I will bring H935 to My holy H6944 mountain H2022,
And make H8055 them joyful 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.”
And the dogs H3611 are [fn]greedy H5315 H5794, they [fn]are never H3808 satisfied H3045 H7654.
And they are shepherds H7462 who have H3045 no H3808 understanding H995;
They have all H3605 turned H6437 to their own way H1870,
Each H376 one H376 to his unjust H1215 gain H1215, [fn]without H4480 exception H7097.
“As for Me, this H2088 is My covenant H1285 with them,” says H559 the LORD H3068: “My Spirit H7307 who 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 [fn]offspring H2233, nor H3808 from the mouth H6310 of your [fn]offspring's H2233 offspring H2233,” says H559 the LORD H3068, “from now H6258 and forever H5704 H5769.”
“A multitude H8229 of camels H1581 will cover H3680 you,
The young H1072 camels H1072 of Midian H4080 and Ephah H5891;
All H3605 those from Sheba H7614 will come H935;
They will bring H5375 gold H2091 and frankincense H3828,
And proclaim H1319 good H1319 news H1319 of the praises H8416 of the LORD H3068.
“Certainly H3588 the coastlands H339 will wait H6960 for 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 the LORD H3068 your God H430,
And for the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 because H3588 He has glorified H6286 you.
I will make H2142 mention H2142 of the mercies H2617 of the LORD H3068, and the praises H8416 of the LORD H3068,
According H5921 to all H3605 that the LORD H3068 has granted H1580 us,
And the great H7227 goodness H2898 toward the house H1004 of Israel H3478,
Which H834 He has granted H1580 them according to His compassion H7356
“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 pig's H2386 flesh H1320, detestable H8263 things H8263, and mice H5909,
Will come H5486 to H5486 an H5486 end H5486 altogether H3162,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
Therefore H3651, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of armies H6635 says H559:
“Because H3282 you have spoken H1696 this H2088 word H1697,
Behold H2009, I am making H5414 My words H1697 fire H784 in your mouth H6310,
And this H2088 people H5971 wood H6086, and it will consume H398 them.
“Therefore H3651, behold H2009, days H3117 are coming H935,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068, “when it will no H3808 longer H5750 be called H559 Topheth H8612, or the Valley H1516 of Ben-hinnom H1121 H2011, but the Valley H1516 of the Slaughter H2028; for they will bury H6912 in Topheth H8612 [fn]because H4480 there H369 is H369 no H369 other place H4725.
“I will take H5375 up H5375 a weeping H1065 and wailing H5092 for the mountains H2022,
And for the pastures H4999 of the wilderness H4057 a song H7015 of H7015 mourning H7015,
Because H3588 they are laid H5327 waste H5327 so H4480 H1097 that no H1097 one H376 passes H5674 through H5674,
And the sound H6963 of the livestock H4735 is not heard H8085;
Both H4480 the birds H5775 of the sky H8064 and the animals H929 have fled H5074; they are gone H1980.
Who H4310 is the wise H2450 person H376 who may understand H995 this H2088? And who is he to whom H834 the mouth H6310 of the LORD H3068 has spoken H1696, that he may declare H5046 it? Why H5921 H4100 is the land H776 destroyed H6, laid H5327 waste H5327 like the desert H4057, so H4480 H1097 that no H1097 one H1097 passes H5674 through H5674?
‘If H518 I go H3318 out H3318 to the country H7704,
There H2009 are those killed H2491 by the sword H2719!
Or if H518 I enter H935 the city H5892,
There H2009 are diseases H8463 from famine H7458!
For both H1571 prophet H5030 and priest H3548
Have wandered H5503 around H5503 in the land H776 that they do not know H3045.'”
“Administer H1777 justice H4941 [fn]every morning H1242;
And save H5337 the person who has been robbed H1497 from the [fn]power H3027 of his oppressor H6231,
So H6435 that H6435 My wrath H2534 will not H6435 spread H3318 like fire H784
And burn H1197, with no H369 one H369 to extinguish H3518 it,
After H310 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 into H1540 exile H1540 Jeconiah H3204 the son H1121 of Jehoiakim H3079, king H4428 of Judah H3063, and the officials H8269 of Judah H3063 with the craftsmen H2796 and metalworkers H4525 from Jerusalem H3389 and had brought H935 them to Babylon H894, the LORD H3068 showed H7200 me: behold H2009, two H8147 baskets H1731 of figs H8384 placed H5975 before H6440 the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068.
‘But like the bad H7451 figs H8384 which H834 cannot H3808 be eaten H398 due H4480 to rottenness H7455,' indeed H3588, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559, ‘so H3651 will I give H5414 up H5414 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 live H3427 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
‘Then it will be when seventy H7657 years H8141 are completed H4390 I will punish H6485 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 and that nation H1471,' declares H5002 the LORD H3068, ‘for their wrongdoing H5771, and the land H776 of the Chaldeans H3778; and I will make H7760 it an everlasting H5769 desolation H8077.
“Zion H6726 will be plowed H2790 like a field H7704,
And Jerusalem H3389 will become H1961 heaps H5856 of H5856 ruins H5856,
And the mountain H2022 of the house H1004 like the [fn]high H1116 places H1116 of a forest H3293.”'
‘And it will be that the nation H1471 or the kingdom H4467 which H834 will not serve H5647 him, Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894, and will not put H5414 its neck H6677 under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, I will punish H6485 that nation H1471 with the sword H2719, with famine H7458, and with plague H1698,' declares H5002 the LORD H3068, ‘until H5704 I have eliminated H8552 [fn]it by his hand H3027.
“This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
‘Behold H2009, I will restore H7725 the fortunes H7622 of the tents H168 of Jacob H3290
And have H7355 compassion H7355 on H7355 his dwellings H4908;
And the city H5892 will be rebuilt H1129 on its ruins H8510,
And the palace H759 will stand H3427 on its rightful H4941 place H4941.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478 says H559: “Once again H5750 they will speak H559 this H2088 word H1697 in the land H776 of Judah H3063 and in its cities H5892 when I restore H7725 their fortunes H7622,
‘The LORD H3068 bless H1288 you, O place H5116 of righteousness H6664,
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“If H518 the heavens H8064 above H4480 H4605 can be measured H4058
And the foundations H4144 of the earth H776 searched H2713 out H2713 below H4295,
Then I will also H1571 reject H3988 all H3605 the descendants H2233 of Israel H3478
For everything H3605 that they have done H6213,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
“This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: ‘Yet again H5750 there will be heard H8085 in this H2088 place H4725, of which H834 you say H559, “It is a waste H2720, without H369 man H120 and without H369 animal H929,” that is, in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 and in the streets H2351 of Jerusalem H3389 that are deserted H8074, without H369 man H120 and without H369 inhabitant H3427 and without H369 animal H929,
“Give H3034 thanks H3034 to the LORD H3068 of armies H6635,
For the LORD H3068 is good H2896,
For His mercy H2617 is everlasting H5769,”
as they bring H935 a thanksgiving H8426 offering H8426 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068. For I will restore H7725 the fortunes H7622 of the land H776 as they were at first H7223,' says H559 the LORD H3068.
The word H1697 that came H1961 to Jeremiah H3414 from the LORD H3068 after H310 Nebuzaradan H5018 captain H7227 of the bodyguard H2876 had released H7971 him from Ramah H7414, when he had taken H3947 him bound H631 in chains H246 among H8432 all H3605 the exiles H1546 of Jerusalem H3389 and Judah H3063 who were being exiled H1540 to Babylon H894.
Now as for the cistern H953 where H834 H8033 Ishmael H3458 had thrown H7993 all H3605 the bodies H6297 of the men H376 whom H834 he had struck H5221 and H5221 killed H5221 [fn]because H3027 of Gedaliah H1436, it was the one that King H4428 Asa H609 had constructed H6213 on H4480 H6440 account H4480 H6440 of H4480 H6440 Baasha H1201, king H4428 of Israel H3478; Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 filled H4390 it with the dead H2491.
“But as for you, Jacob H3290 My servant H5650, do not fear H3372,
Nor H408 be dismayed H2865, Israel H3478!
For, see H2009, I am going to save H3467 you from far H7350 away H7350,
And your descendants H2233 from the land H776 of their captivity H7628;
And Jacob H3290 will return H7725 and be H8252 undisturbed H8252
And secure H7599, with no H369 one H369 making him afraid H2729.
“Behold H2009, waters H4325 are going to rise H5927 from the north H6828
And become H1961 an overflowing H7857 torrent H5158,
And overflow H7857 the land H776 and everything H4393 that is in H4393 it,
The city H5892 and those who live H3427 in it;
And the people H120 will cry H2199 out H2199,
And every H3605 inhabitant H3427 of the land H776 will wail H3213.
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: “Behold H2009, those [fn]who H834 were not sentenced H4941 to drink H8354 the cup H3563 will certainly H8354 drink H8354 it, so are you the one H1931 who will be held H5352 completely H5352 blameless H5352? You will not be held H5352 blameless H5352, but you will certainly H8354 drink H8354 it.
“In those H1992 days H3117 and at that time H6256,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068, “the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 will come H935, they and the sons H1121 of Judah H3063 as H3162 well H3162; they will go H1980 along weeping H1058 as they go H1980, and it will be the LORD H3068 their God H430 whom they will seek H1245.
“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:
Sharpen H1305 the arrows H2671, fill H4390 the quivers H7982!
The LORD H3068 has stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of the kings H4428 of the Medes H4074,
Because H3588 His plan H4209 is against H5921 Babylon H894 to destroy H7843 it;
For it is the vengeance H5360 of the LORD H3068, vengeance H5360 for His temple H1964.
And He has treated H2554 His [fn]tabernacle H7900 violently H2554, like a despised garden H1588;
He has destroyed H7843 His appointed H4150 [fn]meeting H4150 place H4150.
The LORD H3068 has caused
The appointed H4150 feast H4150 and Sabbath H7676 in Zion H6726 to be forgotten H7911,
My eyes H5869 fail H3615 because of tears H1832,
My [fn]spirit H4578 is greatly H2560 troubled H2560;
My [fn]heart H3516 is poured H8210 out H8210 on the earth H776
Because H5921 of the [fn]destruction H7667 of the daughter H1323 of my people H5971,
When little H5768 ones H5768 and infants H3243 languish H5848
“As for you, house H1004 of Israel H3478,” this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “Go H1980, serve H5647, everyone H376 of you his idols H1544; [fn]but later H310 you will certainly H518 H369 listen H8085 to Me, and My holy H6944 name H8034 you will no H3808 longer H5750 defile H2490 with your gifts H4979 and your idols H1544.
“Moreover, I will make H5414 the Nile H2975 canals H2975 dry H2724
And sell H4376 the land H776 into the hands H3027 of evil H7451 men H7451.
And I will make H8074 the land H776 desolate H8074
And [fn]all H4393 that is in H4393 it,
By the hand H3027 of strangers H2114; I the LORD H3068 have spoken H1696.”
“Therefore H3651 say H559 to the house H1004 of Israel H3478, ‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “It is not for your sake H4616, house H1004 of Israel H3478, that I am about to act H6213, but for My holy H6944 name H8034, which H834 you have profaned H2490 among the nations H1471 where H834 H8033 you went H935.
“On that day H3117 I will give H5414 Gog H1463 a burial H6913 place H4725 there H8033 in Israel H3478, the valley H1516 of those who pass H5674 by H5674 east H6926 of the sea H3220, and it will block H2629 the way H2629 of those who would pass H5674 by H5674. So they will bury H6912 Gog H1463 there H8033 with all H3605 his horde H1995, and they will call H7121 it the Valley H1516 of [fn]Hamon-gog H1996.
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.
And behold H2009, there was a wall H2346 on the outside H2351 of the [fn]temple H1004 all H5439 around H5439, and in the man's H376 hand H3027 was a measuring H4060 rod H7070 of six H8337 [fn]cubits H520, [fn]each of which was a [fn]cubit H520 and a hand H2948 width H2948. So he measured H4058 the thickness H7341 of the [fn]wall H2346, one H259 rod H7070; and the height H6967, one H259 rod H7070.
The building H1146 that was in front H6440 of the separate H1508 area H1508 at the side H6285 toward H1870 the west H3220 was seventy H7657 cubits H520 wide H7341; and the wall H7023 of the building H1146 was five H2568 cubits H520 [fn]thick H7341 all H5439 around H5439, and its length H753 was ninety H8673 cubits H520.
And 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, a hundred H3967 cubits H520; he also measured the inner H6442 sanctuary H1964 and the porches H197 of the courtyard H2691.
“And these H428 are the measurements H4060 of the altar H4196 by cubits H520 (the cubit H520 being a [fn]cubit H520 and a hand H2948 width 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 all H5439 around H5439 one H259 span H2239; and this H2088 shall be the height of the [fn]base H1354 of the altar H4196.
“And the prince H5387 shall have land on either H2088 side H2088 of the holy H6944 [fn]allotment H8641 and the [fn]property H272 of the city H5892, adjacent H413 H6440 to the holy H6944 [fn]allotment H8641 and the [fn]property H272 of the city H5892, 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.
“At the festivals H2282 and the appointed H4150 feasts H4150, the grain offering H4503 shall be an ephah H374 [fn]with a bull H6499 and an ephah H374 [fn]with a ram H352, and [fn]with the lambs H3532 as [fn]much H3027 as one is able H3027 to give H4991, and a hin H1969 of oil H8081 [fn]with an ephah H374.
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.
“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.
“The remainder H3498 shall be for the prince H5387, on the one H2088 side H2088 and on the other H2088 of the holy H6944 allotment H8641 and of the [fn]property H272 of the city H5892; in front H6440 of the twenty-five H2568 H6242 thousand H505 cubits of the allotment H8641 toward H5704 the east H6921 border H1366 and westward H3220 in front H6440 of the twenty-five H2568 H6242 thousand H505 toward H5921 the west H3220 border H1366, alongside H5980 the portions H2506, it shall be for the prince H5387. And the holy H6944 allotment H8641 and the sanctuary H4720 of the house H1004 shall be in the middle H8432 of it.
Then H116 Arioch H746 hurriedly H927 brought H5954 Daniel H1841 [fn]into the king's H4430 presence H6925 and spoke H560 to him as H3652 follows H3652: “I have found H7912 a man H1400 among H4481 the [fn]exiles H1123 H1547 from Judah H3061 who H1768 can make H3046 the interpretation H6591 known H3046 to the king H4430!”
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 H1836 is the dream H2493 that I, King H4430 Nebuchadnezzar H5020, have seen H2370. Now you, Belteshazzar H1096, tell H560 me its interpretation H6591, since H6903 H1768 none H3606 H3809 of the wise H2445 men H2445 of my kingdom H4437 is able H3202 to make H3046 known H3046 to me the interpretation H6591; but you are able H3546, because H1768 a spirit H7308 of the holy H6922 gods H426 is in you.'
“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.
“Then the king H4428 will do H6213 as he pleases H7522, and he will exalt H7311 himself and boast H1431 against H5921 every H3605 god H410 and will speak H1696 [fn]dreadful H6381 things H6381 against H5921 the God H410 of gods H410; and he will be H6743 successful H6743 until H5704 the indignation H2195 is finished H3615, because H3588 that which is determined H2782 will be done H6213.
Then she conceived H2029 again H5750 and gave H3205 birth H3205 to a daughter H1323. And [fn]the LORD said H559 to him, “Name H7121 H8034 her [fn]Lo-ruhamah H3819, for I will no H3808 longer H3254 H5750 take H7355 pity H7355 on H7355 the house H1004 of Israel H3478, that I would ever H5375 forgive H5375 them.
“For their mother H517 has committed H2181 prostitution 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.'
The LORD H3068 [fn]will answer H6030 and say H559 to His people H5971,
“Behold H2009, I am going to send H7971 you grain H1715, new H8492 wine H8492, and oil H3323,
And you will be H7646 satisfied H7646 in full with [fn]them;
And I will never H3808 again H5750 make H5414 you a disgrace H2781 among the nations H1471.
“But I will remove H7368 the northern H6830 army far H7368 from you,
And I will drive H5080 it into a dry H6723 and desolate H8077 land H776,
Its advance H6440 guard H6440 into the eastern H6931 sea H3220,
And its rear H5490 guard H5490 into the western H314 sea H3220.
And its stench H889 will ascend H5927 and its odor H6709 of H6709 decay H6709 will come H5927 up H5927,
“And it will come H1961 about H1961 that everyone H3605 H834 who H834 calls H7121 on the name H8034 of the LORD H3068
For on Mount H2022 Zion H6726 and in Jerusalem H3389
There will be those who H6413 escape H6413,
Just H834 as H834 the LORD H3068 has said H559,
Even among the survivors H8300 whom H834 the LORD H3068 calls H7121.
“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!
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“For three H7969 offenses H6588 of Edom H123, and for four H702,
I will not revoke H7725 its punishment,
Because H5921 he pursued H7291 his brother H251 with the sword H2719
And stifled H7843 his compassion H7356;
I saw H7200 the Lord H136 standing H5324 beside H5921 the altar H4196, and He said H559,
“Strike H5221 the pillar H3730 capitals H3730 so that the thresholds H5592 will shake H7493,
And break H1214 them on the heads H7218 of them all H3605!
Then I will put H2026 to H2026 death H2026 the rest H319 of them with the sword H2719;
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
Many H7227 nations H1471 will come H1980 and say H559,
“Come H1980 and let's go H5927 up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of the LORD H3068
And to the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290,
So that He may teach H3384 us about H4480 His ways H1870,
And that we may walk H1980 in His paths H734.”
For from Zion H6726 will go H3318 forth H3318 the law H8451,
“Arise H6965 and thresh H1758, daughter H1323 of Zion H6726,
For I will make H7760 your horn H7161 iron H1270,
And I will make H7760 your hoofs H6541 bronze H5154,
So that you may pulverize H1854 many H7227 peoples H5971,
And dedicate H2763 to the LORD H3068 their unjust H1215 profit H1215,
And their wealth H2428 to the Lord H136 of all H3605 the earth H776.
“Their horses H5483 are H7043 faster H7043 than H4480 leopards H5246,
And quicker H2300 than H4480 wolves H2061 in the evening H6153.
Their [fn]horsemen H6571 charge H6335 along H6335,
Their [fn]horsemen H6571 come H935 from afar H7350;
They fly H5774 like an eagle H5404 [fn]swooping H2363 down H2363 to devour H398.
Neither H1571 H3808 their silver H3701 nor H1571 their gold H2091
Will be H3201 able H3201 to save H5337 them
On the day H3117 of the LORD'S H3068 anger H5678;
And all H3605 the earth H776 will be devoured H398
By the fire H784 of His jealousy H7068,
For He will make H6213 a complete H3617 end H3617,
Woe H1945 to the inhabitants H3427 of the seacoast H3220 H2256,
The nation H1471 of the [fn]Cherethites H3774!
The word H1697 of the LORD H3068 is against H5921 you,
Canaan H3667, land H776 of the Philistines H6430;
And I will eliminate H6 you
So H4480 that H4480 there H369 will H369 be H369 no H369 inhabitant H3427.
“I have eliminated H3772 nations H1471;
Their corner H6438 towers H6438 are H8074 deserted H8074.
I have laid H2717 waste H2717 their streets H2351,
With no H1097 one H1097 passing H5674 by H5674;
Their cities H5892 have been laid H6658 waste H6658,
Without H4480 H1097 a person H376, without H4480 H369 an inhabitant H3427.
“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;
“On that day H3117 you will feel H954 no H3808 shame H954
Because H4480 of all H3605 your deeds H5949
By which H834 you have rebelled H6586 against Me;
For then H227 I will remove H5493 from your midst H7130
Your proud H1346, arrogant H5947 ones H5947,
And you will never H3808 H5750 again H3254 be H1361 haughty H1361
“And it will come H1961 about H1961 on that day H3117,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, “that I will eliminate 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 remove H5674 the prophets H5030 and the unclean H2932 spirit H7307 from the land H776.
“‘A son H1121 honors H3513 his father H1, and a servant H5650 his master H113. Then if H518 I am a father H1, where H346 is My honor H3519? And if H518 I am a master H113, where H346 is My [fn]respect H4172?' says H559 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635 to you, the priests H3548 who despise H959 My name H8034! But you say H559, ‘How H4100 have we despised H959 Your name H8034?'
And this H2088 is [fn]another H8145 thing H8145 you do H6213: you cover H3680 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 with tears H1832, with weeping H1065 and sighing H603, because H4480 He no H369 longer H5750 gives H6437 attention H6437 to the [fn]offering H4503 or accepts H3947 it with favor H7522 from your hand H3027.
Then H227 those who [fn]feared H3372 the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 to one H376 another H7453, and the LORD H3068 listened H7181 attentively H7181 and heard H8085 it, and a book H5612 of remembrance H2146 was written H3789 before H6440 Him for those who [fn]fear H3372 the LORD H3068 and esteem H2803 His name H8034.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 in the six H8337 hundred H3967 and first H259 year H8141, in the first H7223 month, on the first H259 of the month H2320, that the water H4325 was dried H2717 up H2717 [fn]from the earth H776. Then Noah H5146 removed H5493 the covering H4372 of the ark H8392, and looked H7200, and behold H2009, the [fn]surface H6440 of the ground H127 had dried H2717 up H2717.
So Ephron's H6085 field H7704, which H834 was in Machpelah H4375, which H834 faced H6440 Mamre H4471, the field H7704 and the cave H4631 which H834 was in it, and all H3605 the trees H6086 which H834 were in the field H7704, that were [fn]within all H3605 the confines H5439 of its border H1366, [fn]were deeded H6965 over H6965
So Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 did H6213 just H3651 H834 as the LORD H3068 had commanded H6680. And he lifted H7311 up H7311 [fn]the staff H4294 and struck H5221 the water H4325 that was in the Nile H2975 in the sight H5869 of Pharaoh H6547 and in the sight H5869 of his servants H5650; and all H3605 the water H4325 that was in the Nile H2975 was turned H2015 into blood H1818.
Then Moses H4872 reached H5186 out H5186 with his hand H3027 over H5921 the sea H3220; and the LORD H3068 [fn]swept H1980 the sea H3220 back by a strong H5794 east H6921 wind H7307 all H3605 night H3915, and turned H7760 the sea H3220 into dry H2724 land H2724, and the waters H4325 were divided H1234.
There H8033 He made H7760 for them a statute H2706 and regulation H4941, and there H8033 He tested H5254 them.
“Now if H3588 people H376 struggle H5327 with each other and strike H5062 a pregnant H2030 woman H802 so that [fn]she gives H3205 birth H3205 prematurely H3318, but there is no H3808 injury H611, the guilty person shall certainly H6064 be fined H6064 as the woman's H802 husband H1167 [fn]may demand H7896 of him, and he shall pay H5414 [fn]as the judges H6414 decide.
“For six H8337 days H3117 you are to do H6213 your work H4639, but on the seventh H7637 day H3117 you shall cease H7673 from labor so H4616 that H4616 your ox H7794 and your donkey H2543 may rest H5117, and the son H1121 of your female H519 slave H519, as well as the stranger H1616 residing with you, may refresh H5314 themselves.
All H3605 the gold H2091 that was used H6213 for the work H4399, in all H3605 the work H4399 of the sanctuary H6944, [fn]which was the gold H2091 of the wave H8573 offering H8573, was twenty-nine H8672 H6242 [fn]talents H3603 and 730 H7651 H3967 H7970 [fn]shekels H8255, according to the shekel H8255 of the sanctuary H6944.
‘Anyone H376 from the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 or from the strangers H1616 residing H1481 in Israel H3478 who H834 gives H5414 any H4480 of his [fn]children H2233 to Molech H4432, shall certainly H4191 be put H4191 to H4191 death H4191; the people H5971 of the land H776 shall stone H7275 him with stones H68.
“Now the responsibility H6486 of Eleazar H499 the son H1121 of Aaron H175 the priest H3548 is the oil H8081 for the light H3974, the fragrant H5561 incense H7004, the continual H8548 grain offering H4503, and the anointing H4888 oil H8081—the responsibility H6486 of all H3605 the [fn]tabernacle H4908 and everything H3605 that is in it, with the sanctuary H6944 and its furnishings H3627.”
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.
“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,
When they came H935 to the region H1552 of the Jordan H3383 which H834 is in the land H776 of Canaan H3667, the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205, the sons H1121 of Gad H1410, and the half-tribe H2677 H7626 of Manasseh H4519 built H1129 an altar H4196 there H8033 by the Jordan H3383, [fn]a large H1419 altar H4196 in appearance H4758.
So when Phinehas H6372 the priest H3548 and the leaders H5387 of the congregation H5712, that is, the heads H7218 of the [fn]families H505 of Israel H3478 who H834 were with him, heard H8085 the words H1697 which H834 the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205, the sons H1121 of Gad H1410, and the sons H1121 of Manasseh H4519 spoke H1696, it pleased H3190 H5869 them.
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.
Now this H2088 was the custom in former H6440 times H6440 in Israel H3478 concerning H5921 the redemption H1353 and the exchange H8545 of land to confirm H6965 any H3605 matter H1697: a man H376 removed H8025 his sandal H5275 and gave H5414 it to another H7453; and this H2088 was the way of confirmation H8584 in Israel H3478.
Then Saul H7586 heard H8085 that David H1732 and the men H376 who H834 were with him had been discovered H3045. Now Saul H7586 was in Gibeah H1390, sitting H3427 under H8478 the tamarisk H815 tree H815 on the height H7413 with his spear H2595 in his hand H3027, and all H3605 his servants H5650 were standing H5324 in front H5921 of him.
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.
Now when the attendant H8334 of the man H376 of God H430 had risen H6965 early H7925 and gone H3318 out H3318, behold H2009, an army H2428 with horses H5483 and chariots H7393 was circling H5437 the city H5892. And his servant H5288 said H559 to him, “This H162 is H162 hopeless H162, my master H113! [fn]What H351 are we to do H6213?”
Instead, Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 [fn]took H3947 a chest H727 and drilled H5344 a hole H2356 in its lid H1817 and put H5414 it beside H681 the altar H4196, on the right H3225 side H3225 as one H376 comes H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068; and the priests H3548 who guarded H8104 the threshold H5592 put H5414 in it all H3605 the money H3701 that was brought H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068.
‘Then this H2088 shall be the sign H226 for you: [fn]you will eat H398 this year H8141 what H5599 grows H5599 of H5599 itself H5599, in the second H8145 year H8141 what H7823 grows H7823 by H7823 itself H7823, and in the third H7992 year H8141 sow H2232, harvest H7114, plant H5193 vineyards H3754, and eat H398 their fruit H6529.
Then King H4428 David H1732 said H559 to the entire H3605 assembly H6951, “My son H1121 Solomon H8010, whom alone H259 God H430 has chosen H977, is still young H5288 and inexperienced H7390, and the work H4399 is great H1419; for the [fn]temple H1002 is not for mankind H120, but for the LORD H3068 God H430.
Then he made H6213 the [fn]room H1004 of the Most H6944 Holy H6944 Place H6944: its length H753 across H5921 H6440 the width H7341 of the house H1004 was [fn]twenty H6242 cubits H520, and its width H7341 was twenty H6242 cubits H520; and he overlaid H2645 it with fine H2896 gold H2091, amounting to [fn]six H8337 hundred H3967 talents H3603.
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.
So it came H1961 about H1961, when the command H1697 and decree H1881 of the king H4428 were heard H8085 and many H7227 young H5291 ladies H5291 were gathered H6908 to the citadel H1002 of Susa H7800 into the [fn]custody H3027 of Hegai H1896, that Esther H635 was taken H3947 to the king's H4428 [fn]palace H1004 into the custody H3027 of Hegai H1896, who was in H8104 charge H8104 of H8104 the women H802.
Now it came H1961 about 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 courtyard H2691 of the king's H4428 palace 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 the palace H1004.
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.
It will be as when H834 a hungry H7457 person H7457 dreams H2492—
And behold H2009, he is eating H398;
But when he awakens H6974, his [fn]hunger H5315 is not satisfied H7386,
Or as when H834 a thirsty H6771 person H6771 dreams H2492—
And behold H2009, he is drinking H8354,
But when he awakens H6974, behold H2009, he is faint H5889
And his [fn]thirst H5315 is not quenched H8264.
So H3651 will the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 be
Who wage H6633 war H6633 against H5921 Mount H2022 Zion H6726.
You turn H2016 things around H2016!
Shall the potter H3335 be considered H2803 [fn]as equal with the clay H2563,
That what H4639 is made H4639 would say H559 to its maker H6213, “He did not make H6213 me”;
Or what H3336 is formed H3335 say H559 to him who formed H3335 it, “He has no H3808 understanding H995”?
Look H2372 at H2372 Zion H6726, the city H7151 of our appointed H4150 feasts H4150;
Your eyes H5869 will see H7200 Jerusalem H3389, an undisturbed H7600 settlement H5116,
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 ropes H2256 be torn H5423 apart H5423.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“Where H335 is the certificate H5612 of divorce H3748
By which H834 I have sent H7971 your mother H517 away H7971?
Or H176 to whom H4310 of My creditors H5383 did I sell H4376 you?
Behold H2005, you were sold H4376 for your wrongdoings H5771,
And for your wrongful H6588 acts H6588 your mother H517 was sent H7971 away H7971.
“Raise H5375 your eyes H5869 to the sky H8064,
Then look H5027 to the earth H776 beneath H4480 H8478;
For the sky H8064 will vanish H4414 like smoke H6227,
And the earth H776 will wear H1086 out H1086 like a garment H899
And its inhabitants H3427 will die H4191 [fn]in the same H3644 way H3651.
“As for Me, this H2088 is My covenant H1285 with them,” says H559 the LORD H3068: “My Spirit H7307 who 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 [fn]offspring H2233, nor H3808 from the mouth H6310 of your [fn]offspring's H2233 offspring H2233,” says H559 the LORD H3068, “from now H6258 and forever H5704 H5769.”
“Your own wickedness H7451 will correct H3256 you,
And your apostasies H4878 will punish H3198 you;
Know H3045 therefore and see H7200 that it is evil H7451 and bitter H4751
For you to abandon H5800 the LORD H3068 your God H430,
And the fear H6345 of Me is not in you,” declares H5002 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 of armies H6635.
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.”
“Now when H3588 this H2088 people H5971 or H176 the prophet H5030 or H176 a priest H3548 asks H7592 you, saying H559, ‘What H4100 is the [fn]pronouncement H4853 of the LORD H3068?' then you shall say H559 to them, ‘What H4100 [fn]pronouncement H4853?' The LORD H3068 declares H5002, ‘I will abandon H5203 you.'
“Give H3034 thanks H3034 to the LORD H3068 of armies H6635,
For the LORD H3068 is good H2896,
For His mercy H2617 is everlasting H5769,”
as they bring H935 a thanksgiving H8426 offering H8426 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068. For I will restore H7725 the fortunes H7622 of the land H776 as they were at first H7223,' says H559 the LORD H3068.
The word H1697 that came H1961 to Jeremiah H3414 from the LORD H3068, when Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 and all H3605 his army H2428, with all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776 that were under his [fn]control H4475 and all H3605 the peoples H5971, were fighting H3898 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389 and all H3605 its cities H5892, saying H559,
“To which H4310 among the trees H6086 of Eden H5731 are H1819 you so H3602 alike H1819 in glory H3519 and greatness H1433? Yet you will be brought H3381 down H3381 with the trees H6086 of Eden H5731 to the earth H776 beneath H8482; you will lie H7901 in the midst H8432 of the uncircumcised H6189 with those who were killed H2491 by the sword H2719. This H1931 is Pharaoh H6547 and all H3605 his hordes H1995!”' declares H5002 the Lord H136 GOD H3068.”
“And I will make H3045 My holy H6944 name H8034 known H3045 in the midst H8432 of My people H5971 Israel H3478; and I will not allow H2490 My holy H6944 name H8034 to H2490 be H2490 profaned H2490 anymore H5750. But the nations H1471 will know H3045 that I am the LORD H3068, the Holy H6918 One H6918 in Israel H3478.
“On that day H3117 I will give H5414 Gog H1463 a burial H6913 place H4725 there H8033 in Israel H3478, the valley H1516 of those who pass H5674 by H5674 east H6926 of the sea H3220, and it will block H2629 the way H2629 of those who would pass H5674 by H5674. So they will bury H6912 Gog H1463 there H8033 with all H3605 his horde H1995, and they will call H7121 it the Valley H1516 of [fn]Hamon-gog H1996.
“And these H428 are the measurements H4060 of the altar H4196 by cubits H520 (the cubit H520 being a [fn]cubit H520 and a hand H2948 width 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 all H5439 around H5439 one H259 span H2239; and this H2088 shall be the height of the [fn]base H1354 of the altar H4196.
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.
“And beside H5921 the border H1366 of Judah H3063, from the east H6921 side H6285 to the west H3220 side H6285, shall be the [fn]allotment H8641 which H834 you shall [fn]set H7311 apart H7311, twenty-five H6242 H2568 thousand H505 [fn]cubits in width H7341, and in length H753 like one H259 of the portions H2506, from the east H6921 side H6285 to the west H3220 side H6285; and the sanctuary H4720 shall be in the middle H8432 of it.
“The remainder H3498 shall be for the prince H5387, on the one H2088 side H2088 and on the other H2088 of the holy H6944 allotment H8641 and of the [fn]property H272 of the city H5892; in front H6440 of the twenty-five H2568 H6242 thousand H505 cubits of the allotment H8641 toward H5704 the east H6921 border H1366 and westward H3220 in front H6440 of the twenty-five H2568 H6242 thousand H505 toward H5921 the west H3220 border H1366, alongside H5980 the portions H2506, it shall be for the prince H5387. And the holy H6944 allotment H8641 and the sanctuary H4720 of the house H1004 shall be in the middle H8432 of it.
“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.”
‘This H1836 is the dream H2493 that I, King H4430 Nebuchadnezzar H5020, have seen H2370. Now you, Belteshazzar H1096, tell H560 me its interpretation H6591, since H6903 H1768 none H3606 H3809 of the wise H2445 men H2445 of my kingdom H4437 is able H3202 to make H3046 known H3046 to me the interpretation H6591; but you are able H3546, because H1768 a spirit H7308 of the holy H6922 gods H426 is in you.'
“Then H116 Daniel H1841, whose H1768 name H8036 is Belteshazzar H1096, was appalled H8075 for a while H8160 as his thoughts H7476 alarmed H927 him. The king H4430 responded H6032 and said H560, ‘Belteshazzar H1096, do not let the dream H2493 or its interpretation H6591 alarm H927 you.' Belteshazzar H1096 replied H6032, ‘My lord H4756, if only the dream H2493 applied to those who hate H8131 you, and its interpretation H6591 to your adversaries H6146!
Now when H1768 Daniel H1841 learned H3046 that the document H3792 was signed H7560, he entered H5954 his house H1005 (and 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 offering H3029 praise H3029 before H6925 his God H426, just H6903 as he had been doing H5648 previously H4481 H6928.
“Then H116 I kept H1934 looking H2370 because H4481 of the sound H7032 of the [fn]boastful H7229 words H4406 which H1768 the horn H7162 was speaking H4449; I kept H1934 looking H2370 until H5705 H1768 the beast H2423 was killed H6992, and its body H1655 was destroyed H7 and given H3052 to the burning H3346 [fn]fire H785.
“This H3652 is H3652 what H3652 he said H560: ‘The fourth H7244 beast H2423 will be a fourth H7244 kingdom H4437 on the earth H772 which H1768 will be different H8133 from all H3606 the other kingdoms H4437, and will devour H399 the whole H3606 earth H772 and trample H1759 it down H1759 and crush H1855 it.
In the third H7969 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539, a [fn]message H1697 was revealed H1540 to Daniel H1840, who H834 was named H7121 H8034 Belteshazzar H1095; and the [fn]message H1697 was true H571 and it concerned great H1419 [fn]conflict H6635, but he understood H995 the [fn]message H1697 and had an understanding H998 of the vision H4758.
The remnant H7611 of Jacob H3290
Will be among the nations H1471,
Among H7130 many H7227 peoples H5971
Like a lion H738 among the animals H929 of the forest H3293,
Like a young H3715 lion H3715 among flocks H5739 of sheep H6629,
Which H834, if H518 he passes H5674 through H5674,
Tramples H7429 and tears H2963,
And there H369 is H369 no H369 one H369 who H5337 can H5337 rescue H5337.
Flocks H5739 will lie H7257 down H7257 in her midst H8432,
[fn]All H3605 animals H2416 that range in herds H1471;
Both H1571 the [fn]pelican H6893 and the hedgehog H7090
Will spend H3885 their nights H3885 in [fn]the tops H3730 of H3730 her pillars H3730;
[fn]Birds H6963 will sing H7891 in the window H2474,
“Certainly H3588 the coastlands H339 will wait H6960 for 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 the LORD H3068 your God H430,
And for the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 because H3588 He has glorified H6286 you.
