And the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 from Jerusalem ^H3389.

Moreover, Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559, “Because ^H3282 H3588 the daughters ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726 are ^H1361 haughty ^H1361

And walk ^H1980 with outstretched ^H5186 necks ^H1627 and seductive ^H8265 eyes ^H5869,

And go ^H1980 along with mincing ^H2952 steps ^H2952

And tinkle ^H5913 the ^H5913 bangles ^H5913 on their feet ^H7272,

Yet ^H5750 today ^H3117 he will stand ^H5975 at Nob ^H5011;

He shakes ^H5130 his fist ^H3027 at the mountain ^H2022 of the [fn]daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726, the hill ^H1389 of Jerusalem ^H3389.

The [fn]oracle ^H4853 concerning the valley ^H1516 of vision ^H2384.

What ^H4100 is the matter with you now ^H645, that you have all ^H3605 gone ^H5927 up ^H5927 to the housetops ^H1406?

For Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 has a day ^H3117 of confusion ^H4103, oppression ^H4001, and panic ^H3998

In the valley ^H1516 of vision ^H2384,

A breaking ^H6979 down ^H6979 of walls ^H7023

And a crying ^H7771 [fn]to the mountain ^H2022.

Therefore ^H3651 thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068,

“Behold ^H2009, I am laying ^H3245 in Zion ^H6726 a stone ^H68, a tested ^H976 stone ^H68,

A costly ^H3368 cornerstone ^H6438 for the foundation ^H4143, [fn]firmly ^H3245 placed ^H3245.

He who believes ^H539 in it will not be [fn]disturbed ^H2363.

For Yahweh ^H3068 has a day ^H3117 of vengeance ^H5359,

A year ^H8141 of recompense ^H7966 for the [fn]cause ^H7379 of Zion ^H6726.

“She has despised ^H959 you and mocked ^H3932 you,

The virgin ^H1330 daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726;

She has shaken ^H5128 her head ^H7218 behind ^H310 you,

The daughter ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389!

Shake ^H5287 yourself from the dust ^H6083, rise ^H6965 up ^H6965,

O captive ^H7628 Jerusalem ^H3389;

Loose ^H6605 yourself from the chains ^H4147 around your neck ^H6677,

O captive ^H7628 daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726.

“A Redeemer ^H1350 will come ^H935 to Zion ^H6726,

And to those who turn ^H7725 from transgression ^H6588 in Jacob ^H3290,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

For Zion's ^H6726 sake ^H4616 I will not keep ^H2814 silent ^H2814,

And for Jerusalem's ^H3389 sake ^H4616 I will not keep ^H8252 quiet ^H8252,

Until ^H5704 her righteousness ^H6664 goes ^H3318 forth ^H3318 like brightness ^H5051,

And her salvation ^H3444 like a torch ^H3940 that is burning ^H1197.

Behold ^H2009, Yahweh ^H3068 has [fn]announced ^H8085 to the end ^H7097 of the earth ^H776,

Say ^H559 to the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726, “Behold ^H2009, your salvation ^H3468 comes ^H935;

Behold ^H2009, His reward ^H7939 is with Him, and His recompense ^H6468 before ^H6440 Him.”

For I heard ^H8085 a sound ^H6963 as of a woman in ^H2342 labor ^H2342 pains ^H2342,

The distress ^H6869 as of one ^H1069 giving ^H1069 birth ^H1069 to ^H1069 her ^H1069 first ^H1069 child ^H1069,

The sound ^H6963 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726 gasping ^H3306 for ^H3306 breath ^H3306,

Stretching ^H6566 out ^H6566 her [fn]hands ^H3709, saying,

“Ah ^H4994, woe ^H188 is me, for my soul faints ^H5888 before murderers ^H2026.”

“The comely ^H5000 and delicate ^H6026 one, the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726, I will ruin ^H1820.

“They take ^H2388 hold ^H2388 of bow ^H7198 and spear ^H3591;

They are cruel ^H394 and have ^H7355 no ^H3808 compassion ^H7355;

Their voice ^H6963 roars ^H1993 like the sea ^H3220,

And they ride ^H7392 on horses ^H5483,

Arranged ^H6186 as a man ^H376 for the battle ^H4421

Against ^H5921 you, O daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726!”

Have You completely ^H3988 rejected ^H3988 Judah ^H3063?

Or ^H518 [fn]have You loathed ^H1602 Zion ^H6726?

Why ^H4069 have You stricken ^H5221 us so that there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 healing ^H4832 for us?

We hoped ^H6960 for peace ^H7965, but there ^H369 was ^H369 no ^H369 good ^H2896;

And for a time ^H6256 of healing ^H4832, but behold ^H2009, terror ^H1205!

“They will come ^H935 and sing ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442 on the height ^H4791 of Zion ^H6726,

And they will be radiant ^H5102 over ^H413 the goodness ^H2898 of Yahweh ^H3068—

Over ^H5921 the grain ^H1715 and the new ^H8492 wine ^H8492 and the oil ^H3323,

And over ^H5921 the young ^H1121 of the flock ^H6629 and the herd ^H1241;

And their soul ^H5315 will be like a watered ^H7302 garden ^H1588,

And they will never ^H3808 H5750 waste ^H1669 away ^H1669 again ^H3254.

Aleph

How ^H351 the Lord ^H136 has covered ^H5743 the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726

With ^H5743 a ^H5743 cloud ^H5743 in His anger ^H639!

He has cast ^H7993 from heaven ^H8064 to earth ^H776

The beauty ^H8597 of Israel ^H3478,

And has not remembered ^H2142 the footstool ^H1916 H7272 of His feet ^H7272

In the day ^H3117 of His anger ^H639.

Daleth

He has bent ^H1869 His bow ^H7198 like an enemy ^H340;

He has set ^H5324 His right ^H3225 hand ^H3225 like an adversary ^H6862

And killed ^H2026 all ^H3605 that were desirable ^H4261 to the eye ^H5869;

In the tent ^H168 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726

He has poured ^H8210 out ^H8210 His wrath ^H2534 like fire ^H784.

Heth

Yahweh ^H3068 [fn]determined ^H2803 to bring ^H7843 to ruin ^H7843

The wall ^H2346 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726.

He has stretched ^H5186 out ^H5186 a line ^H6957;

He has not turned ^H7725 His hand ^H3027 back from swallowing ^H1104 up,

And He has caused rampart ^H2426 and wall ^H2346 to mourn ^H56;

They have languished ^H535 together ^H3162.

Yodh

The elders ^H2205 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726

Sit ^H3427 on the ground ^H776; they are ^H1826 silent ^H1826.

They have thrown ^H5927 dust ^H6083 up ^H5927 on their heads ^H7218;

They have girded ^H2296 themselves with sackcloth ^H8242.

The virgins ^H1330 of Jerusalem ^H3389

Have bowed ^H3381 their heads ^H7218 down to the ground ^H776.

Mem

What ^H4100 shall I testify ^H5749 about you?

To what ^H4100 shall I equate ^H1819 you,

O daughter ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389?

To what ^H4100 shall I liken ^H7737 you as I comfort ^H5162 you,

O virgin ^H1330 daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726?

For your [fn]destruction ^H7667 is as vast ^H1419 as the sea ^H3220;

Who ^H4310 can heal ^H7495 you?

Tsadhe

Their heart ^H3820 cried ^H6817 out ^H6817 to the Lord ^H136,

“O wall ^H2346 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726,

Let your tears ^H1832 run ^H3381 down ^H3381 like a river ^H5158 day ^H3119 and night ^H3915;

Give ^H5414 yourself no ^H408 relief ^H6314;

Let [fn]your eyes ^H5869 not ^H408 be ^H1826 still ^H1826.

Beth

The precious ^H3368 sons ^H1121 of Zion ^H6726,

Weighed ^H5537 against fine ^H6337 gold ^H6337,

How ^H351 they are regarded ^H2803 as earthen ^H2789 jars ^H5035,

The work ^H4639 of a potter's ^H3335 hands ^H3027!

Tav

The punishment of your iniquity ^H5771 has come ^H8552 to an end ^H8552, O daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726;

He will exile ^H1540 you no ^H3808 longer ^H3254.

But He will punish ^H6485 your iniquity ^H5771, O daughter ^H1323 of Edom ^H123;

He will expose ^H1540 your sins ^H2403!

Because ^H5921 of Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 which ^H7945 lies ^H8074 desolate ^H8074,

Foxes ^H7776 walk ^H1980 about ^H1980 in it.

Sing ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442, O daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726!

Make ^H7321 a ^H7321 loud ^H7321 shout ^H7321, O Israel ^H3478!

Be glad ^H8055 and exult ^H5937 with all ^H3605 your heart ^H3820,

O daughter ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389!

Rejoice ^H1523 greatly ^H3966, O daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726!

Make ^H7321 a ^H7321 loud ^H7321 shout ^H7321, O daughter ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389!

Behold ^H2009, your king ^H4428 is coming ^H935 to you;

He is [fn]righteous ^H6662 and endowed ^H3467 with ^H3467 salvation ^H3467,

[fn]Lowly ^H6041 and mounted ^H7392 on a donkey ^H2543,

Even on a [fn]colt ^H5895, the [fn]foal ^H1121 of a pack ^H860 animal ^H860.

Walk ^H5437 about ^H5437 Zion ^H6726 and go ^H5362 around ^H5362 her;

Count ^H5608 her towers ^H4026;

By Your favor ^H7522 do ^H3190 good ^H3190 to Zion ^H6726;

[fn]Build ^H1129 the walls ^H2346 of Jerusalem ^H3389.

For God ^H430 will save ^H3467 Zion ^H6726 and build ^H1129 the cities ^H5892 of Judah ^H3063,

That they may dwell ^H3427 there ^H8033 and possess ^H3423 it.

You will arise ^H6965 and have ^H7355 compassion ^H7355 on ^H7355 Zion ^H6726—

For it is time ^H6256 to be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to it,

For the appointed ^H4150 time ^H4150 has come ^H935.

For Yahweh ^H3068 has built ^H1129 up ^H1129 Zion ^H6726;

He has appeared ^H7200 in His glory ^H3519.

A Song of Ascents.

Those who trust ^H982 in Yahweh ^H3068

Are as Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726, which will not ^H3808 be shaken ^H4131 but will abide ^H3427 forever ^H5769.

For Yahweh ^H3068 has chosen ^H977 Zion ^H6726;

He has desired ^H183 it for His habitation ^H4186.

It is like the dew ^H2919 of Hermon ^H2768

Coming ^H3381 down ^H3381 upon the mountains ^H2022 of Zion ^H6726;

For there ^H8033, Yahweh ^H3068 commanded ^H6680 the blessing ^H1293—life ^H2416 forever ^H5704 H5769.

“Then I will have ^H7725 your judges ^H8199 return ^H7725 as at the first ^H7223,

And your counselors ^H3289 as at the beginning ^H8462;

Afterwards ^H310 you will be called ^H7121 the city ^H5892 of righteousness ^H6664,

A faithful ^H539 town ^H7151.”

Therefore Yahweh ^H3068 exalts ^H7682 against ^H5921 them adversaries ^H6862 from Rezin ^H7526

And incites ^H5526 their enemies ^H340,

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 pomp ^H8597 of his eyes ^H5869 which are raised ^H7312 high ^H7312.”

Cry ^H6670 aloud ^H6670 and shout ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442, O inhabitant ^H3427 of Zion ^H6726,

For great ^H1419 in your midst ^H7130 is the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478.

“How ^H4100 then will one answer ^H6030 the messengers ^H4397 of the nation ^H1471?

That Yahweh ^H3068 has founded ^H3245 Zion ^H6726,

And the afflicted ^H6041 of His people ^H5971 will take ^H2620 refuge ^H2620 in it.”

And it will be as when ^H834 a hungry ^H7457 man ^H7457 dreams ^H2492—

And behold ^H2009, he is eating ^H398;

But he awakens ^H6974, and his soul ^H5315 is empty ^H7386,

Or as when ^H834 a thirsty ^H6771 man ^H6771 dreams ^H2492—

And behold ^H2009, he is drinking ^H8354,

But he awakens ^H6974, and behold ^H2009, he is faint ^H5889,

And his soul ^H5315 is not quenched ^H8264.

Thus ^H3651 the multitude ^H1995 of all ^H3605 the nations ^H1471 will be

Who wage ^H6633 war ^H6633 against ^H5921 Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726.

And the ransomed ^H6299 of Yahweh ^H3068 will return ^H7725

And come ^H935 with joyful ^H7440 shouting ^H7440 to Zion ^H6726,

With everlasting ^H5769 gladness ^H8057 upon their heads ^H7218.

They will [fn]attain ^H5381 delight ^H8342 and gladness ^H8057,

And sorrow ^H3015 and sighing ^H585 will flee ^H5127 away ^H5127.

Get ^H5927 yourself up ^H5927 on a high ^H1364 mountain ^H2022,

O Zion ^H6726, bearer ^H1319 of ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319,

Raise ^H7311 up ^H7311 your voice ^H6963 powerfully ^H3581,

O Jerusalem ^H3389, bearer ^H1319 of ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319;

Raise ^H7311 it up ^H7311, do not fear ^H3372.

Say ^H559 to the cities ^H5892 of Judah ^H3063,

“Behold ^H2009 your God ^H430!”

Indeed ^H3588, Yahweh ^H3068 will comfort ^H5162 Zion ^H6726;

He will comfort ^H5162 all ^H3605 her waste ^H2723 places ^H2723.

And her wilderness ^H4057 He will make ^H7760 like Eden ^H5731,

And her desert ^H6160 like the garden ^H1588 of Yahweh ^H3068;

Joy ^H8342 and gladness ^H8057 will be found ^H4672 in her,

Thanksgiving ^H8426 and sound ^H6963 of a melody ^H2172.

So the ransomed ^H6299 of Yahweh ^H3068 will return ^H7725

And come ^H935 with joyful ^H7440 shouting ^H7440 to Zion ^H6726,

And everlasting ^H5769 gladness ^H8057 will be on their heads ^H7218.

They will obtain ^H5381 joy ^H8342 and gladness ^H8057,

And sorrow ^H3015 and sighing ^H585 will flee ^H5127 away.

The voice ^H6963 of Your watchmen ^H6822! They lift ^H5375 up ^H5375 their voices ^H6963;

They shout ^H7442 joyfully ^H7442 together ^H3162;

For they will see ^H7200 [fn]with their own ^H5869 eyes ^H5869

When Yahweh ^H3068 returns ^H7725 to Zion ^H6726.

‘[fn]Return ^H7725, O faithless ^H7726 sons ^H1121,' declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068;

‘For I am ^H1166 a ^H1166 master ^H1166 to you,

And I will take ^H3947 you one ^H259 from a city ^H5892 and two ^H8147 from a family ^H4940,

And I will bring ^H935 you to Zion ^H6726.'

“Lift ^H5375 up ^H5375 a standard ^H5251 toward Zion ^H6726!

Seek ^H5756 safety ^H5756, do not stand ^H5975 still,

For I am bringing ^H935 evil ^H7451 from the north ^H6828,

And great ^H1419 destruction ^H7667.

“For there ^H3426 will be ^H3426 a day ^H3117 when watchmen ^H5341

On the hills ^H2022 of Ephraim ^H669 call ^H7121 out ^H7121,

‘Arise ^H6965, and let us go ^H5927 up ^H5927 to Zion ^H6726,

To Yahweh ^H3068 our God ^H430.'”

There is a sound ^H6963 of those who flee ^H5127 and escape ^H6412 from the land ^H776 of Babylon ^H894,

To declare ^H5046 in Zion ^H6726 the vengeance ^H5360 of Yahweh ^H3068 our God ^H430,

Vengeance ^H5360 for His temple ^H1964.

Yahweh ^H3068 has brought ^H3318 [fn]about ^H3318 our righteousness ^H6666;

Come ^H935 and let us recount ^H5608 in Zion ^H6726

The work ^H4639 of Yahweh ^H3068 our God ^H430!

“But I will repay ^H7999 Babylon ^H894 and all ^H3605 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Chaldea ^H3778 for all ^H3605 their evil ^H7451 that they have done ^H6213 in Zion ^H6726 before your eyes ^H5869,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“May the violence ^H2555 done to me and to my flesh ^H7607 be upon Babylon ^H894,”

The [fn]inhabitant ^H3427 of Zion ^H6726 will say ^H559;

And, “May my blood ^H1818 be upon the inhabitants ^H3427 of Chaldea ^H3778,”

Jerusalem ^H3389 will say ^H559.

Then ^H227 Solomon ^H8010 assembled ^H6950 the elders ^H2205 of Israel ^H3478 and all ^H3605 the heads ^H7218 of the tribes ^H4294, the leaders ^H5387 of the fathers' ^H1 households of the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478, to King ^H4428 Solomon ^H8010 in Jerusalem ^H3389, to bring ^H5927 up ^H5927 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of Yahweh ^H3068 from the city ^H5892 of David ^H1732, which ^H1931 is Zion ^H6726.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David. A Song.

To You, there will be silence ^H1747 and praise ^H8416 in Zion ^H6726, O God ^H430,

And to You the vow ^H5088 will be paid ^H7999.

So His [fn]tabernacle ^H5520 is in Salem ^H8004;

His dwelling ^H4585 place ^H4585 is in Zion ^H6726.

They go ^H1980 from strength ^H2428 to strength ^H2428,

[fn]Each one of them appears ^H7200 before ^H413 God ^H430 in Zion ^H6726.

Yahweh ^H3068 is great ^H1419 in Zion ^H6726,

And He is exalted ^H7311 above ^H5921 all ^H3605 the peoples ^H5971.

To recount ^H5608 the name ^H8034 of Yahweh ^H3068 in Zion ^H6726

And His praise ^H8416 in Jerusalem ^H3389,

Therefore ^H3651 thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635, “O My people ^H5971 who inhabit ^H3427 Zion ^H6726, do not fear ^H3372 the Assyrian ^H804 [fn]who strikes ^H5221 you with the rod ^H7626 and lifts ^H5375 up ^H5375 his staff ^H4294 against ^H5921 you, the way ^H1870 Egypt ^H4714 did.

Then the moon ^H3842 will be humiliated ^H2659 and the sun ^H2535 ashamed ^H954,

For Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 will reign ^H4427 on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 and in Jerusalem ^H3389,

And His glory ^H3519 will be before ^H5048 His elders ^H2205.

Like heat ^H2721 in a dry ^H6724 land ^H6724, You subdue ^H3665 the rumbling ^H7588 of strangers ^H2114;

Like heat ^H2721 by the shadow ^H6738 of a cloud ^H5645, the song ^H2158 of the ruthless ^H6184 is [fn]silenced ^H6031.

[fn]O people ^H5971 in Zion ^H6726, inhabitant ^H3427 in Jerusalem ^H3389, you will weep ^H1058 no ^H3808 longer ^H1058. He will surely ^H2603 be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to you at the sound ^H6963 of your cry ^H2199; when He hears ^H8085 it, He will answer ^H6030 you.

“His rock ^H5553 will pass ^H5674 away ^H5674 because ^H4480 of terror ^H4032,

And his princes ^H8269 will be dismayed ^H2865 at the standard ^H5251,”

Declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068, whose ^H834 fire ^H217 is in Zion ^H6726 and whose furnace ^H8574 is in Jerusalem ^H3389.

Each ^H376 will be like a refuge ^H4224 from the wind ^H7307

And a shelter ^H5643 from the storm ^H2230,

Like [fn]streams ^H6388 of water ^H4325 in a dry ^H6724 country ^H6724,

Like the shade ^H6738 of a [fn]huge ^H3515 rock ^H5553 in [fn]a weary ^H5889 land ^H776.

Sinners ^H2400 in Zion ^H6726 are in dread ^H6342;

Trembling ^H7461 has seized ^H270 the godless ^H2611.

“Who ^H4310 among us can sojourn ^H1481 with the consuming ^H398 fire ^H784?

Who ^H4310 among us can sojourn ^H1481 with [fn]continual ^H5769 burning ^H4168?”

“Formerly ^H7223 I said to Zion ^H6726, ‘Behold ^H2009, here ^H2009 they are.'

And to Jerusalem ^H3389, ‘I will give ^H5414 a messenger ^H1319 of ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319.'

“I bring ^H7126 near ^H7126 My righteousness ^H6666, it is ^H7368 not far ^H7368 off ^H7368;

And My salvation ^H8668 will not delay ^H309.

And I will grant ^H5414 salvation ^H8668 in Zion ^H6726,

And My glory ^H8597 for Israel ^H3478.

To grant ^H7760 those who mourn ^H57 in Zion ^H6726,

Giving ^H5414 them a headdress ^H6287 instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 ashes ^H665,

The oil ^H8081 of rejoicing ^H8342 instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 mourning ^H60,

The mantle ^H4594 of praise ^H8416 instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 a spirit ^H7307 of fainting ^H3544.

So they will be called ^H7121 [fn]oaks ^H352 of righteousness ^H6664,

The planting ^H4302 of Yahweh ^H3068, that He may show ^H6286 forth His beautiful ^H6286 glory ^H6286.

Behold ^H2009, the sound ^H6963! The cry ^H7775 of the daughter ^H1323 of my people ^H5971 from a distant ^H4801 land ^H776:

“Is Yahweh ^H3068 not in Zion ^H6726? Is her King ^H4428 not within her?”

“Why ^H4069 have they provoked ^H3707 Me to anger ^H3707 with their graven ^H6456 images ^H6456, with foreign ^H5236 [fn]idols ^H1892?”

“For a voice ^H6963 of wailing ^H5092 is heard ^H8085 from Zion ^H6726,

‘How ^H349 we are destroyed ^H7703!

We are put ^H954 to ^H954 great ^H3966 shame ^H954,

For we have left ^H5800 the land ^H776

Because ^H3588 they have cast ^H7993 down ^H7993 our dwellings ^H4908.'”

Vav

And He has violently ^H2554 treated ^H2554 His [fn]tabernacle ^H7900 like a garden ^H1588 booth;

He has brought His appointed ^H4150 [fn]meeting ^H4150 place ^H4150 to ruin ^H7843.

Yahweh ^H3068 has caused to be forgotten ^H7911

The appointed ^H4150 time ^H4150 and sabbath ^H7676 in Zion ^H6726,

And He has spurned ^H5006 king ^H4428 and priest ^H3548

In the indignation ^H2195 of His anger ^H639.

Kaph

Yahweh ^H3068 has spent ^H3615 His wrath ^H2534;

He has poured ^H8210 out ^H8210 His burning ^H2740 anger ^H639;

And He has kindled ^H3341 a fire ^H784 in Zion ^H6726

Which has devoured ^H398 its foundations ^H3247.

They violated ^H6031 the women ^H802 in Zion ^H6726,

The virgins ^H1330 in the cities ^H5892 of Judah ^H3063.

That I may recount ^H5608 all ^H3605 Your praises ^H8416,

That in the gates ^H8179 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726

I may rejoice ^H1523 in Your [fn]salvation ^H3444.

Oh ^H4310 H5414, that the salvation ^H3444 of Israel ^H3478 [fn]would come out of Zion ^H6726!

When Yahweh ^H3068 [fn]restores ^H7725 His captive ^H7622 people ^H5971,

May Jacob ^H3290 rejoice ^H1523, may Israel ^H3478 be ^H8055 glad ^H8055.

May He send ^H7971 you help ^H5828 from the sanctuary ^H6944

And uphold ^H5582 you from Zion ^H6726!

Daleth

The roads ^H1870 [fn]of Zion ^H6726 are in mourning ^H57

Because ^H4480 H1097 no ^H1097 one comes ^H935 to the appointed ^H4150 times ^H4150.

All ^H3605 her gates ^H8179 are desolate ^H8074;

Her priests ^H3548 are sighing ^H584,

Her virgins ^H1330 are grieving ^H3013,

And she herself ^H1931 [fn]is ^H4843 bitter ^H4843.

Vav

So all ^H3605 her majesty ^H1926

Has gone ^H3318 out ^H3318 from the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726;

Her princes ^H8269 have become ^H1961 like deer ^H354

That have found ^H4672 no ^H3808 pasture ^H4829;

So they have [fn]fled ^H1980 without ^H3808 strength ^H3581

Before ^H6440 the pursuer ^H7291.

“[fn]Yahweh ^H3068 roars ^H7580 from Zion ^H6726

And from Jerusalem ^H3389 He gives ^H5414 forth His voice ^H6963;

And the shepherds' ^H7462 pasture ^H4999 grounds ^H4999 mourn ^H56,

And the [fn]top ^H7218 of Carmel ^H3760 dries ^H3001 up ^H3001.”

“But on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 there will be those who ^H6413 escape ^H6413,

And it will be holy ^H6944.

And the house ^H1004 of Jacob ^H3290 will possess ^H3423 their possessions ^H4180.

And the saviors ^H3467 will ascend ^H5927 Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726

To judge ^H8199 the mountain ^H2022 of Esau ^H6215,

And the kingdom ^H4410 will belong to Yahweh ^H3068.

Harness ^H7573 the chariot ^H4818 to the team ^H7409 of ^H7409 horses ^H7409,

O inhabitant ^H3427 of Lachish ^H3923—

She was the beginning ^H7225 of sin ^H2403

To the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726—

Because ^H3588 in you were found ^H4672

The transgressions ^H6588 of Israel ^H3478.

And many ^H7227 nations ^H1471 will come ^H1980 and say ^H559,

“Come ^H1980 and let us go ^H5927 up ^H5927 to the mountain ^H2022 of Yahweh ^H3068

And to the house ^H1004 of the God ^H430 of Jacob ^H3290,

That He may instruct ^H3384 us from ^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,

And the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 from Jerusalem ^H3389.

“I will make ^H7760 the lame ^H6760 a remnant ^H7611

And the outcasts ^H1972 a mighty ^H6099 nation ^H1471,

And Yahweh ^H3068 will reign ^H4427 over ^H5921 them in Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726

From now ^H6258 on and forever ^H5704 H5769.

“Writhe ^H2342 and labor ^H1518 to give ^H1518 birth ^H1518,

Daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726,

Like a woman in ^H3205 childbirth ^H3205;

For now ^H6258 you will go ^H3318 out ^H3318 of the city ^H7151,

Dwell ^H7931 in the field ^H7704,

And go ^H935 to Babylon ^H894.

There ^H8033 you will be delivered ^H5337;

There ^H8033 Yahweh ^H3068 will redeem ^H1350 you

From the hand ^H3709 of your enemies ^H340.

“Arise ^H6965 and thresh ^H1758, daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726,

For your horn ^H7161 I will make ^H7760 iron ^H1270,

And your hoofs ^H6541 I will make ^H7760 bronze ^H5154,

That you may pulverize ^H1854 many ^H7227 peoples ^H5971,

That you may devote ^H2763 to Yahweh ^H3068 their greedy ^H1215 gain ^H1215 unto destruction ^H2763

And their wealth ^H2428 to the Lord ^H136 of all ^H3605 the earth ^H776.

Then ^H227 Solomon ^H8010 assembled ^H6950 the elders ^H2205 of Israel ^H3478 and all ^H3605 the heads ^H7218 of the tribes ^H4294, the leaders ^H5387 of the fathers' ^H1 households of the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478, to King ^H4428 Solomon ^H8010 in Jerusalem ^H3389, to bring ^H5927 up ^H5927 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of Yahweh ^H3068 from the city ^H5892 of David ^H1732, which ^H1931 is Zion ^H6726.

Then ^H227 Solomon ^H8010 assembled ^H6950 the elders ^H2205 of Israel ^H3478 and all ^H3605 the heads ^H7218 of the tribes ^H4294, the leaders ^H5387 of the fathers' ^H1 households of the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 to Jerusalem ^H3389, to bring ^H5927 up ^H5927 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of Yahweh ^H3068 from the city ^H5892 of David ^H1732, which ^H1931 is Zion ^H6726.

But of Zion ^H6726 it shall be said ^H559, “This ^H376 one ^H376 and that one ^H376 were born ^H3205 in her”;

And the Most ^H5945 High ^H5945 Himself ^H1931 will establish ^H3559 her.

Zion ^H6726 [fn]heard ^H8085 this and was ^H8055 glad ^H8055,

And the daughters ^H1323 of Judah ^H3063 have rejoiced ^H1523

Because ^H4616 of Your judgments ^H4941, O Yahweh ^H3068.

How ^H351 the faithful ^H539 city ^H7151 has become ^H1961 a harlot ^H2181,

She who was full ^H4392 of justice ^H4941!

Righteousness ^H6664 once lodged ^H3885 in her,

But now ^H6258 murderers ^H7523.

Behold ^H2372 Zion ^H6726, the city ^H7151 of our appointed ^H4150 times ^H4150;

Your eyes ^H5869 will see ^H7200 Jerusalem ^H3389, an abode ^H5116 at ^H7600 ease ^H7600,

A tent ^H168 which will not be folded ^H6813;

Its stakes ^H3489 will never ^H1077 H5331 be pulled ^H5265 up ^H5265,

Nor ^H1077 any ^H3605 of its cords ^H2256 ever ^H1077 be torn ^H5423 apart ^H5423.

But Zion ^H6726 said ^H559, “Yahweh ^H3068 has forsaken ^H5800 me,

And the Lord ^H136 has forgotten ^H7911 me.”

Awake ^H5782, awake ^H5782,

Clothe ^H3847 yourself ^H3847 in your strength ^H5797, O Zion ^H6726;

Clothe ^H3847 yourself ^H3847 in your glorious ^H8597 garments ^H899,

O Jerusalem ^H3389, the holy ^H6944 city ^H5892;

For the uncircumcised ^H6189 and the unclean ^H2931

Will no ^H3808 longer ^H3254 H5750 come ^H935 into you.

“The sons ^H1121 of those who afflicted ^H6031 you will come ^H1980 bowing ^H7817 to you,

And all ^H3605 those who spurned ^H5006 you will bow ^H2331 themselves at the soles ^H3709 of your feet ^H7272;

And they will call ^H7121 you the City ^H5892 of Yahweh ^H3068,

The Zion ^H6726 of the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478.

Your holy ^H6944 cities ^H5892 have become ^H1961 a wilderness ^H4057;

Zion ^H6726 has become ^H1961 a wilderness ^H4057,

Jerusalem ^H3389 a desolation ^H8077.

“Who ^H4310 has heard ^H8085 such ^H2088 a thing ^H2088? Who ^H4310 has seen ^H7200 such ^H428 things?

Can a land ^H776 be [fn]brought ^H2342 forth ^H2342 through ^H2342 labor ^H2342 pains ^H2342 in one ^H259 day ^H3117?

Can a nation ^H1471 be born ^H3205 all ^H6471 at ^H6471 once ^H259 H6471?

As ^H3588 soon ^H3588 as ^H3588 Zion ^H6726 was ^H2342 in ^H2342 labor ^H2342 pains ^H2342, she also ^H1571 gave ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to her sons ^H1121.

“Zion ^H6726 will be plowed ^H2790 as a field ^H7704,

And Jerusalem ^H3389 will become ^H1961 a heap ^H5856 of ^H5856 ruins ^H5856,

And the mountain ^H2022 of the house ^H1004 will become [fn]the high ^H1116 places ^H1116 of a forest ^H3293.”'

Laud ^H7623 Yahweh ^H3068, O Jerusalem ^H3389!

Praise ^H1984 your God ^H430, O Zion ^H6726!

How ^H4100 lovely ^H4998 on the mountains ^H2022

Are the feet ^H7272 of him who proclaims ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319,

Who [fn]announces ^H8085 [fn]peace ^H7965

And proclaims ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319 of good ^H2896 things,

Who [fn]announces ^H8085 salvation ^H3444,

And says ^H559 to Zion ^H6726, “Your God ^H430 [fn]reigns ^H4427!”

“Set ^H5324 up ^H5324 roadmarks ^H6725 for yourself,

Place ^H7760 for yourself guideposts ^H8564;

Set ^H7896 your heart ^H3820 to the highway ^H4546,

The way ^H1870 by which you went ^H1980.

Return ^H7725, O virgin ^H1330 of Israel ^H3478,

Return ^H7725 to these ^H428 your cities ^H5892.

Blow ^H8628 a trumpet ^H7782 in Zion ^H6726,

And make ^H7321 a ^H7321 loud ^H7321 shout ^H7321 on My holy ^H6944 mountain ^H2022!

Let all ^H3605 the inhabitants ^H3427 of the land ^H776 tremble ^H7264,

For the day ^H3117 of Yahweh ^H3068 is coming ^H935;

Surely ^H3588 it is near ^H7138,

Blow ^H8628 a trumpet ^H7782 in Zion ^H6726,

Set ^H6942 apart ^H6942 a fast ^H6685 as ^H6942 holy ^H6942, call ^H7121 for a solemn ^H6116 assembly ^H6116,

Then you will know ^H3045 that I am Yahweh ^H3068 your God ^H430,

Dwelling ^H7931 in Zion ^H6726, My holy ^H6944 mountain ^H2022.

So Jerusalem ^H3389 will be holy ^H6944,

And strangers ^H2114 will pass ^H5674 through it no ^H3808 more ^H5750.

And I will avenge ^H5358 their blood ^H1818 which I have not avenged ^H5358,

Indeed, Yahweh ^H3068 dwells ^H7931 in Zion ^H6726.

In that day ^H3117 it will be said ^H559 to Jerusalem ^H3389:

“Do not fear ^H3372, O Zion ^H6726;

Do not let your hands ^H3027 fall ^H7503 limp ^H7503.

For I will bend ^H1869 Judah ^H3063 [fn]as My bow ^H7198;

I will fill ^H4390 the bow ^H7198 with Ephraim ^H669.

And I will rouse ^H5782 up ^H5782 your sons ^H1121, O Zion ^H6726, against ^H5921 your sons ^H1121, O [fn]Greece ^H3120;

And I will make ^H7760 you like a mighty ^H1368 man's ^H1368 sword ^H2719.

“But as for Me, I have [fn]installed ^H5258 My King ^H4428

Upon Zion ^H6726, My holy ^H6944 mountain ^H2022.”

Woe ^H1945 to those who are ^H7600 at ^H7600 ease ^H7600 in Zion ^H6726

And to those who feel secure ^H982 in the mountain ^H2022 of Samaria ^H8111,

The distinguished ^H5344 men of the first ^H7225 of the nations ^H1471,

To whom ^H1992 the house ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478 comes ^H935.

Who build ^H1129 Zion ^H6726 with bloodshed ^H1818

And Jerusalem ^H3389 with violent ^H5766 injustice ^H5766.

“But now ^H6258 many ^H7227 nations ^H1471 have been assembled ^H622 against ^H5921 you

Who say ^H559, ‘Let her be polluted ^H2610,

And let our eyes ^H5869 behold ^H2372 Zion ^H6726 in triumph.'

So rejoice ^H1523, O sons ^H1121 of Zion ^H6726,

And be glad ^H8055 in Yahweh ^H3068 your God ^H430,

For He has given ^H5414 you [fn]the early ^H4175 rain ^H4175 in righteousness ^H6666.

And He has poured ^H3381 down ^H3381 for you the rain ^H1653,

The [fn]early ^H4175 and [fn]late ^H4456 rains ^H4456 [fn]as before ^H7223.

“And it will be ^H1961 that everyone ^H3605 H834 who calls ^H7121 on the name ^H8034 of Yahweh ^H3068

Will [fn]be delivered ^H4422;

For on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 and in Jerusalem ^H3389

There will be those who ^H6413 escape ^H6413,

As Yahweh ^H3068 has said ^H559,

Even among the survivors ^H8300 whom ^H834 Yahweh ^H3068 calls ^H7121.

And Yahweh ^H3068 roars ^H7580 from Zion ^H6726

And gives ^H5414 forth His voice ^H6963 from Jerusalem ^H3389,

And the heavens ^H8064 and the earth ^H776 quake ^H7493.

But Yahweh ^H3068 is a refuge ^H4268 for His people ^H5971

And a strong ^H4581 defense ^H4581 to the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478.

Then Solomon ^H8010 awoke ^H3364, and behold ^H2009, it was a dream ^H2472. And he came ^H935 to Jerusalem ^H3389 and stood ^H5975 before ^H6440 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the Lord ^H136, and offered ^H5927 burnt ^H5930 offerings ^H5930 and made ^H6213 peace ^H8002 offerings ^H8002, and made ^H6213 a feast ^H4960 for all ^H3605 his servants ^H5650.

Zayin

Sing ^H2167 praises ^H2167 to Yahweh ^H3068, who abides ^H3427 in Zion ^H6726;

Declare ^H5046 among the peoples ^H5971 His acts ^H5949.

At that time ^H6256 a gift ^H7862 of ^H7862 homage ^H7862 will be brought ^H2986 to Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635

[fn]From a people ^H5971 [fn]tall ^H4900 and smooth ^H4803,

Even 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 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635, even Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726.

For thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 to me,

“As the lion ^H738 or the young ^H3715 lion ^H3715 growls ^H1897 over ^H5921 its prey ^H2964,

Against ^H5921 which ^H834 a multitude ^H4393 of shepherds ^H7462 is called ^H7121 out ^H7121,

And it will not be dismayed ^H2865 at their voice ^H6963 nor ^H3808 afflicted ^H6031 at their noise ^H1995,

So ^H3651 will Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 come ^H3381 down ^H3381 to wage ^H6633 war ^H6633 on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 and on its hill ^H1389.”

Pe

Zion ^H6726 stretches ^H6566 out ^H6566 her hands ^H3027;

There ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 to comfort ^H5162 her;

Yahweh ^H3068 has commanded ^H6680 concerning Jacob ^H3290

That the ones round ^H5439 about ^H5439 him should be his adversaries ^H6862;

Jerusalem ^H3389 has become ^H1961 an impure ^H5079 thing ^H5079 among ^H996 them.

Therefore ^H3651, on account ^H1558 of you

Zion ^H6726 will be plowed ^H2790 as a field ^H7704;

Jerusalem ^H3389 will become ^H1961 a heap ^H5856 of ^H5856 ruins ^H5856,

And the mountain ^H2022 of the house ^H1004 of God will become high ^H1116 places ^H1116 of a forest ^H3293.

Yahweh ^H3068 is ^H7682 exalted ^H7682, for He dwells ^H7931 on high ^H4791;
