Now the serpent H5175 was more H4480 cunning H6175 than H4480 any H3605 animal H2416 of the field H7704 which H834 the LORD H3068 God H430 had made H6213. And he said H559 to the woman H802, “Has God H430 really H637 H3588 said H559, ‘You shall not eat H398 from any H3605 tree H6086 of the garden H1588'?”
“Because H3588 you have done H6213 this H2088,
Cursed H779 are you more H4480 than H4480 all H3605 the livestock H929,
And more H4480 than H4480 any H3605 animal H2416 of the field H7704;
On your belly H1512 you shall go H1980,
Then to Adam H121 He said H559, “Because H3588 you have listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of your wife H802, and have eaten H398 from the tree H6086 about which H834 I commanded H6680 you, saying H559, ‘You shall not eat H398 from it';
Cursed H779 is the ground H127 because H5668 of you;
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.
Then the servant H5650 took H3947 ten H6235 camels H1581 from the camels H1581 of his master H113, and went H1980 out with a variety H3605 of good H2898 things H2898 of his master's H113 in his hand H3027; so he set H6965 out H6965 and went H1980 to [fn]Mesopotamia H763, to the city H5892 of Nahor H5152.
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.
And Rebekah H7259 said H559 to Isaac H3327, “I am tired H6973 of [fn]living H2416 because H4480 H6440 of the daughters H1323 of Heth H2845; if H518 Jacob H3290 takes H3947 a wife H802 from the daughters H1323 of Heth H2845 like these H428 from the daughters H1323 of the land H776, what H4100 good will my life H2416 be to me?”
Now Esau H6215 saw H7200 that Isaac H3327 had blessed H1288 Jacob H3290 and sent H7971 him away H7971 to Paddan-aram H6307 to take H3947 to himself a wife H802 from there H8033, and that when he blessed H1288 him he commanded H6680 him, saying H559, “You shall not take H3947 a wife H802 from the daughters H1323 of Canaan H3667,”
Then Esau H6215 took H3947 his wives H802, his sons H1121, his daughters H1323, and all H3605 [fn]his household H1004, and his livestock H4735 and all H3605 his cattle H929, and all H3605 his property H7075 which H834 he had acquired H7408 in the land H776 of Canaan H3667, and went H1980 to another land H776 away from his brother H251 Jacob H3290.
Then their father H1 Israel H3478 said H559 to them, “If H518 it must be so H3651, then H645 do H6213 this H2088: take H3947 some H4480 of the best H2173 products H2173 of the land H776 in your [fn]bags H3627, and carry H3381 down H3381 to the man H376 as a gift H4503, a little H4592 balsam H6875 and a little H4592 honey H1706, labdanum H5219 resin H5219 and [fn]myrrh H3910, pistachio H992 nuts H992 and almonds H8247.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 in the course of those H1992 many H7227 days H3117 that the king H4428 of Egypt H4714 died H4191. And the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 groaned H584 because H4480 of the bondage H5656, and they cried H2199 out H2199; and their cry H7775 for H7775 help H7775 because H4480 of their bondage H5656 ascended H5927 to God H430.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 at midnight H2677 H3915 that the LORD H3068 struck H5221 all H3605 the firstborn H1060 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714, from the firstborn H1060 of Pharaoh H6547 who sat H3427 on his throne H3678 to the firstborn H1060 of the captive H7628 who H834 was in the dungeon H1004 H953, and all H3605 the firstborn H1060 of cattle H929.
“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.
Now Moses H4872 used to take H3947 the tent H168 and pitch H5186 it outside H4480 H2351 the camp H4264, a good H7368 distance H7368 from the camp H4264, and he called H7121 it the tent H168 of meeting H4150. And everyone H3605 who sought H1245 the LORD H3068 would go H3318 out H3318 to the tent H168 of meeting H4150 which H834 was outside H4480 H2351 the camp H4264.
‘Now if H518 the entire H3605 congregation H5712 of Israel H3478 does H7686 wrong H7686 unintentionally H7686 and the matter H1697 [fn]escapes H5956 the notice H5869 of the assembly H6951, and they commit H6213 any H259 of the [fn]things H4687 which H834 the LORD H3068 has commanded H4687 not to be done H6213, and they become H816 guilty H816;
So Moses H4872 took H3947 some H4480 of the anointing H4888 oil H8081 and some H4480 of the blood H1818 which H834 was on the altar H4196, and sprinkled H5137 it on Aaron H175, on his garments H899, on his sons H1121, and on the garments H899 of his sons H1121 with him; and he consecrated H6942 Aaron H175, his garments H899, and his sons H1121, and the garments H899 of his sons H1121 with him.
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.
“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.
‘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.
‘The priest H3548 who is [fn]highest H1419 among H4480 his brothers H251, on whose H834 head H7218 the anointing H4888 oil H8081 has been poured H3332 and [fn]who has been consecrated H4390 H3027 to wear H3847 the garments H899, shall not [fn]uncover H6544 his head H7218 nor H3808 tear H6533 his clothes H899;
‘Nevertheless H389, [fn]anything H3605 which H834 someone H376 sets H2763 apart H2763 to the LORD H3068 for H2763 [fn]destruction H2763 out of all H3605 that he has, of man H120 or animal H929 or of the field H7704 of his own property H272, shall not be sold H4376 nor redeemed H1350. Anything H3605 set H2764 apart H2764 for H2764 destruction H2764 is most H6944 holy H6944 to the LORD H3068.
Now the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205, Israel's H3478 firstborn H1060, their descendants H8435 by their families H4940, by their fathers' H1 households H1004, according to the number H4557 of names H8034, head H1538 by head H1538, every H3605 male H2145 from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605, whoever H3605 was able to go H3318 to war H6635,
Of the sons H1121 of Simeon H8095, their descendants H8435 by their families H4940, by their fathers' H1 households H1004, their numbered H6485 men, according to the number H4557 of names H8034, head H1538 by head H1538, every H3605 male H2145 from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605, whoever H3605 was able to go H3318 to war H6635,
Of the sons H1121 of Joseph H3130, namely, of the sons H1121 of Ephraim H669, their descendants H8435 by their families H4940, by their fathers' H1 households H1004, according to the number H4557 of names H8034, from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605, whoever H3605 was able to go H3318 to war H6635,
The LORD H3068 therefore said H559 to Moses H4872, “Gather H622 for Me seventy H7657 men H376 from the elders H2205 of Israel H3478, whom H834 you know H3045 to be the elders H2205 of the people H5971 and their officers H7860, and bring H3947 them to the tent H168 of meeting H4150, and have them take H3320 their stand H3320 there H8033 with you.
Now a wind H7307 burst H5265 forth H5265 from the LORD H3068 and it brought H1468 quail H7958 from the sea H3220, and dropped H5203 them beside H5921 the camp H4264, about a day's H3117 journey H1870 on this H3541 side and a day's H3117 journey H1870 on the other H3541 side all H5439 around H5439 the camp H4264, and about [fn]two cubits H520 deep on the surface H6440 of the ground H776.
Then they came H935 to the [fn]Valley H5158 of [fn]Eshcol H812, and from there H8033 they cut H3772 off H3772 a branch H2156 with a single H259 cluster H811 of grapes H6025; and they carried H5375 it on a pole H4132 between two H8147 men, with some H4480 of the pomegranates H7416 and the figs H8384.
Then the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 to Aaron H175, “Now behold H2009, I Myself H589 have put H5414 you in charge H4931 of My [fn]offerings H8641, all H3605 the holy H6944 gifts of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 I have given H5414 to you as a portion H4888 and to your sons H1121 as a permanent H5769 allotment H2706.
“So we passed H5674 beyond H5674 H4480 our brothers H251 the sons H1121 of Esau H6215, who live H3427 in Seir H8165, away H4480 from the Arabah H6160 road H1870, away H4480 from Elath H359 and Ezion-geber H6100. And we turned H6437 and passed H5674 through H5674 by the way H1870 of the wilderness H4057 of Moab H4124.
“Only H7534 be H8104 careful H8104 for yourself and watch H8104 over H8104 your soul H5315 diligently H3966, so H6435 that H6435 you do not H6435 forget H7911 the things H1697 which H834 your eyes H5869 have seen H7200 and they do not H6435 depart H5493 from H5493 your heart H3824 all H3605 the days H3117 of your life H2416; but make H3045 them known H3045 to your sons H1121 and your grandsons H1121.
“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?
“When H3588 the LORD H3068 your God H430 brings H935 you into the land H776 where H834 H8033 you are entering H935 to take H3423 possession H3423 of it, and He drives H5394 away H5394 many H7227 nations H1471 from before H6440 you, the Hittites H2850, the Girgashites H1622, the Amorites H567, the Canaanites H3669, the Perizzites H6522, the Hivites H2340, and the Jebusites H2983, seven H7651 nations H1471 greater H7227 and mightier H6099 than H4480 you,
“Do not say H559 in your heart H3824 when the LORD H3068 your God H430 has driven H1920 them away H1920 from [fn]you, ‘Because of my righteousness H6666 the LORD H3068 has brought H935 me in H935 to take H3423 possession H3423 of this H2088 land H776.' Rather, it is because of the [fn]wickedness H7564 of these H428 nations H1471 that the LORD H3068 is dispossessing H3423 them before H4480 H6440 you.
“If H3588 there is a poor H34 person H34 among you, one H259 of your brothers H251, in any H259 of your [fn]towns H8179 in your land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 is giving H5414 you, you shall not harden H553 your heart H3824, nor H3808 close H7092 your hand H3027 from your poor H34 brother H251;
“It shall not seem H7185 difficult H7185 for you when you set H7971 him [fn]free H2670, because H3588 he has given H5647 you six H8337 years H8141 with double H4932 the [fn]service H7939 of a hired H7916 worker H7916; so the LORD H3068 your God H430 will bless H1288 you in whatever H3605 H834 you do H6213.
“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?
“The LORD H3068 will cause H5414 you to be defeated H5062 by H6440 your enemies H340; you will go H3318 out H3318 one H259 way H1870 against H413 them, but you will flee H5127 seven H7651 ways H1870 from their presence H6440, and you will be an example of terror H2113 to all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 when all H3605 the kings H4428 of the Amorites H567 who H834 were beyond H5676 the Jordan H3383 to the west H3220, and all H3605 the kings H4428 of the Canaanites H3669 who H834 were by the sea H3220, heard H8085 how H854 H834 the LORD H3068 had dried H3001 up H3001 the waters H4325 of the Jordan H3383 before H4480 H6440 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 until H5704 [fn]they had crossed H5674, that their hearts H3824 melted H4549, and there was no H3808 spirit H7307 in them any H5750 longer H5750 because H4480 H6440 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478.
But the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 acted H4603 unfaithfully H4603 H4604 regarding the things H2764 designated H2764 for H2764 destruction H2764, for Achan H5912, the son H1121 of Carmi H3756, the son H1121 of Zabdi H2067, the son H1121 of Zerah H2226, from the tribe H4294 of Judah H3063, took H3947 some H4480 of the designated H2764 things H2764; therefore the anger H639 of the LORD H3068 burned H2734 against the sons H1121 of Israel H3478.
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.”
Yet the LORD H3068 said H559 to Joshua H3091, “Do not be H3372 afraid H3372 because H4480 H6440 of them, for tomorrow H4279 at this H2088 time H6256 I am going to turn H5414 all H3605 of them over H5414 to Israel H3478 as good as dead H2491; you shall hamstring H6131 their horses H5483 and burn H8313 their chariots H4818 with fire H784.”
Now these H428 are the kings H4428 of the land H776 whom H834 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 [fn]defeated H5221, and they took possession H3423 of their land H776 beyond H5676 the Jordan H3383 toward the sunrise H4217 H8121, from the Valley H5158 of the Arnon H769 as far H5704 as Mount H2022 Hermon H2768, and all H3605 the Arabah H6160 to the east H4217:
And to the sons H1121 of Gershon H1648 thirteen H7969 H6240 cities H5892 were given by lot H1486 from the families H4940 of the tribe H4294 of Issachar H3485, from the tribe H4294 of Asher H836, from the tribe H4294 of Naphtali H5321, and from the half-tribe H2677 H4294 of Manasseh H4519 in Bashan H1316.
Then Phinehas H6372 the son H1121 of Eleazar H499 the priest H3548 and the leaders H5387 returned H7725 from the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205 and from the sons H1121 of Gad H1410, from the land H776 of Gilead H1568 to the land H776 of Canaan H3667, to the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, and brought H7725 back H7725 word H1697 to them.
“Now behold H2009, today H3117 I am going H1980 the way H1870 of all H3605 the earth H776, and you know H3045 in all H3605 your hearts H3824 and in all H3605 your souls H5315 that not one H259 word H1697 of all H3605 the good H2896 words H1697 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 spoke H1696 concerning H5921 you has failed H5307; they all H3605 have [fn]been fulfilled H935 for you, not [fn]one H259 of them has failed H5307.
Now the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 came H5927 up H5927 from Gilgal H1537 to Bochim H1066. And he said H559, “I brought H5927 you up H5927 out of Egypt H4714 and led H935 you into the land H776 which H834 I have sworn H7650 to your fathers H1; and I said H559, ‘I will never H3808 H5769 break H6565 My covenant H1285 with you,
Then Jerubbaal H3378 (that is, Gideon H1439) and all H3605 the people H5971 who H834 were with him got H7925 up H7925 early H7925, and camped H2583 beside H5921 [fn]the spring H5869 of Harod H5878; and the camp H4264 of Midian H4080 was on the north H6828 side H6828 of [fn]them by the hill H1389 of Moreh H4176 in the valley H6010.
When he came H935 to Lehi H3896, the Philistines H6430 shouted H7321 as they met H7122 him. And the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 rushed H6743 upon H5921 him so that the ropes H5688 that were on his arms H2220 were like flax H6593 that has burned H1197 with fire H784, and his restraints H612 [fn]dropped H4549 from his hands H3027.
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.
So the five H2568 men H376 departed H1980 and came H935 to Laish H3919, and saw H7200 the people H5971 who H834 were in it living H3427 in security H983, in the way H4941 of the Sidonians H6722, quiet H8252 and unsuspecting H982; for there H369 was H369 no H369 [fn]oppressive H6114 ruler H3423 humiliating H3637 them for anything H1697 in the land H776, and they were far H7350 from the Sidonians H6722 and had H369 no H369 dealings H1697 with anyone H120.
So they said H559, “Behold H2009, there is a feast H2282 of the LORD H3068 from year H3117 to year H3117 in Shiloh H7887, which H834 is on the north H6828 side H6828 of Bethel H1008, on the east H4217 H8121 side H4217 H8121 of the road H4546 that goes H5927 up H5927 from Bethel H1008 to Shechem H7927, and on the south H5045 side H5045 of Lebonah H3829.”
Now when the Philistines H6430 heard H8085 that the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 had gathered H6908 at Mizpah H4709, the governors H5633 of the Philistines H6430 went H5927 up H5927 against H413 Israel H3478. And when the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 heard H8085 about it, they were H3372 afraid H3372 of the Philistines H6430.
Now David H1732 and his men H376 went H5927 up H5927 and attacked H6584 the Geshurites H1651, the Girzites H1630, and the Amalekites H6003; for they were the inhabitants H3427 of the land H776 from ancient H5769 times H5769, as you come H935 to Shur H7793 even as far H5704 as the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
Then Saul H7586 immediately H4116 fell H5307 full H4393 length H6967 to the ground H776 and was H3372 very H3966 afraid H3372 because H4480 of Samuel's H8050 words H1697; there was no H3808 strength H3581 in him either H1571, because H3588 he had eaten H398 no H3808 [fn]food H3899 all H3605 day H3117 and all H3605 night H3915.
Now behold H2009, Zadok H6659 also H1571 came, and all H3605 the Levites H3881 with him, carrying H5375 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of God H430. And they set H3322 down H3322 the ark H727 of God H430, and Abiathar H54 came H5927 up H5927 until H5704 all H3605 the people H5971 had finished H8552 crossing H5674 over H5674 from the city H5892.
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.
Then Mephibosheth H4648 the [fn]grandson H1121 of Saul H7586 came H3381 down H3381 to meet H7122 the king H4428; but he had neither H3808 [fn]tended H6213 to H6213 his feet H7272, nor H3808 [fn]trimmed H6213 his mustache H8222, nor H3808 washed H3526 his clothes H899 since H4480 the day H3117 the king H4428 departed H1980 until H5704 the day H3117 he came H935 home in peace H7965.
Then Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077, the son H1121 of a valiant H2428 man H376 of Kabzeel H6909, who had done great H7227 deeds H6467, [fn]killed H5221 the [fn]two H8147 sons of Ariel H739 of Moab H4124. He also went H3381 down H3381 and killed H5221 a lion H738 in the middle H8432 of a pit H877 on a snowy H7950 day H3117.
So Solomon H8010 held H6213 the [fn]feast H2282 at that time H6256, and all H3605 Israel H3478 with him, a great H1419 assembly H6951 from the entrance H935 of Hamath H2574 to the brook H5158 of Egypt H4714, before H6440 the LORD H3068 our God H430, for seven H7651 days H3117 and seven H7651 more days H3117, that is, fourteen H702 H6240 days H3117.
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 a woman H802 of the wives H802 of the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 cried H6817 out H6817 to Elisha H477, saying H559, “Your servant H5650 my husband H376 is dead H4191, and you know H3045 that your servant H5650 feared H3372 the LORD H3068; and the creditor H5383 has come H935 to take H3947 my two H8147 children H3206 to be his slaves H5650.”
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 Jehu H3058 had stationed H7760 for himself eighty H8084 men H376 outside H2351, and he had said H559, “The one H376 who H834 allows any H4480 of the men H376 whom H834 I bring H935 into your hands H3027 to escape H4422 [fn]shall give up his life H5315 in exchange H8478.”
Then King H4428 Ahaz H271 cut H7112 off H7112 the borders H4526 of the stands H4350, and removed H5493 the wash H3595 basin H3595 from them; he also took H3381 down H3381 the [fn]Sea H3220 from the bronze H5178 oxen H1241 which H834 were under H8478 it and put H5414 it on a pavement H4837 of stone H68.
Then the king H4428 of Assyria H804 brought H935 people from Babylon H894, Cuthah H3575, [fn]Avva H5755, Hamath H2574, and Sepharvaim H5617, and settled H3427 them in the cities H5892 of Samaria H8111 in H8478 place H8478 of H8478 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478. So they took H3423 possession H3423 of Samaria H8111 and lived H3427 in its cities H5892.
From the Gadites H1425 valiant H2428 mighty H1368 men H1368 went H914 over H914 to David H1732 at the stronghold H4679 in the wilderness H4057, men H376 trained H6635 for war H4421 who could handle H6186 a large H6793 shield H6793 and spear H7420, whose faces H6440 were like the faces H6440 of lions H738, and they were as swift H4116 as the gazelles H6643 on the mountains H2022.
From Manasseh H4519 some H4480 also defected H5307 to David H1732 when he was about to go H935 to battle H4421 with the Philistines H6430 against H5921 Saul H7586. But they did not help H5826 them, because H3588 the governors H5633 of the Philistines H6430 sent H7971 him away H7971 after consultation H6098, saying H559, “At the cost of our heads H7218 he might defect H5307 to his master H113 Saul H7586.”
Now it came H1961 about H1961 after H310 this H3651, that war H4421 [fn]broke H5975 out H5975 at [fn]Gezer H1507 with the Philistines H6430; then H227 Sibbecai H5444 the Hushathite H2843 [fn]killed H5221 Sippai H5598, one of the descendants H3211 of the [fn]giants H7497, and they were subdued H3665.
These H428 were the sons H1121 of Levi H3878 according to their fathers' H1 households H1004, the heads H7218 of the fathers' H1 households of those among them who were [fn]counted H6485, in the number H4557 of names H8034 by their [fn]head H1538 count H1538, doing H6213 the work H4399 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605.
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.
At that time H6256 Hanani H2607 the seer H7203 came H935 to Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and said H559 to him, “Because you have relied H8172 on the king H4428 of Aram H758 and have not relied H8172 on the LORD H3068 your God H430, for that H3651 reason H3651 the army H2428 of the king H4428 of Aram H758 has escaped H4422 from your hand H3027.
Moreover, Amaziah H558 assembled H6908 Judah H3063 and appointed H5975 them according to their fathers' H1 households H1004 under commanders H8269 of thousands H505 and commanders H8269 of hundreds H3967 throughout H3605 Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144; and he [fn]took H6485 a H6485 census H6485 of those from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605 and found H4672 them to be three H7969 hundred H3967 thousand H505 choice H970 men H970, able to go H3318 to war H6635 and handle H270 spear H7420 and shield H6793.
The sons H1121 of Israel H3478 led H7617 away H7617 captive H7617 two H3967 hundred H3967 thousand H505 of their relatives H251, women H802, sons H1121, and daughters H1323; and they also H1571 [fn]took H962 a great H7227 deal H7227 of spoils H7998 from them, and brought H935 the spoils H7998 to Samaria H8111.
Then the Levites H3881 arose H6965: Mahath H4287 the son H1121 of Amasai H6022 and Joel H3100 the son H1121 of Azariah H5838, from the sons H1121 of the Kohathites H6956; and from the sons H1121 of Merari H4847, Kish H7027 the son H1121 of Abdi H5660 and Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Jehallelel H3094; and from the Gershonites H1649, Joah H3098 the son H1121 of Zimmah H2155 and Eden H5731 the son H1121 of Joah H3098;
Now when all H3605 this H2088 was finished H3615, all H3605 Israel H3478 who were H4672 present H4672 went H3318 out H3318 to the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, broke H7665 the memorial H4676 stones H4676 in H7665 pieces H7665, cut H1438 down H1438 the [fn]Asherim H842 and pulled H5422 down H5422 the high H1116 places H1116 and the altars H4196 throughout H4480 H3605 Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144, as well as in Ephraim H669 and Manasseh H4519, until H5704 [fn]they had destroyed H3615 them all H3615. Then all H3605 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 returned H7725 to their cities H5892, each H376 to his possession H272.
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 these H428 are the [fn]people H1121 of the province H4082 who came H5927 up H5927 out of the captivity H7628 of the exiles H1473 whom H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 into H1540 exile H1540 to Babylon H894, and they returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389 and Judah H3063, each H376 to his city H5892.
Now these H428 were the ones who came H5927 up H5927 from Tel-melah H8528, Tel-harsha H8521, Cherub H3743, [fn]Addan H135, and Immer H564, but they were H3201 not able H3201 to [fn]provide H5046 evidence H5046 of their fathers' H1 households H1004 and their [fn]descendants H2233, whether H518 they were of Israel H3478:
Now in the second H8145 year H8141 of their coming H935 to the house H1004 of God H430 at Jerusalem H3389, in the second H8145 month H2320, Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel H7597, Jeshua H3091 the son H1121 of Jozadak H3087, and the rest H7605 of their brothers H251 the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881, and all H3605 who came H935 from the captivity H7628 to Jerusalem H3389, began H2490 the work and appointed H5975 the Levites H3881 who were twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605 to oversee H5329 the work H4399 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068.
The exiles H1121 H1473 who had come H935 from the captivity H7628 offered H7126 burnt H5930 offerings H5930 to the God H430 of Israel H3478: twelve H8147 H6240 bulls H6499 for all H3605 Israel H3478, ninety-six H8673 H8337 rams H352, seventy-seven H7657 H7651 lambs H3532, twelve H8147 H6240 male H6842 goats H6842 for a sin H2403 offering H2403, all H3605 as a burnt H5930 offering H5930 to the LORD H3068.
Now when these H428 things H428 had been completed H3615, the officials H8269 approached H5066 me, saying H559, “The people H5971 of Israel H3478 and the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 have not separated H914 themselves from the peoples H5971 of the lands H776, as to their abominations H8441, those of the Canaanites H3669, the Hittites H2850, the Perizzites H6522, the Jebusites H2983, the Ammonites H5984, the Moabites H4125, the Egyptians H4713, and the Amorites H567.
Now while Ezra H5830 was praying H6419 and making H3034 confession H3034, weeping H1058 and prostrating H5307 himself before H6440 the house H1004 of God H430, a very H3966 large H7227 assembly H6951, men H376, women H802, and children H3206, gathered H6908 to him from Israel H3478; for the people H5971 wept H1058 greatly H7235 H1059.
So all H3605 the men H376 of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 assembled H6908 at Jerusalem H3389 within the three H7969 days H3117. It was the ninth H8671 month H2320 on the twentieth H6242 of the month H2320, and all H3605 the people H5971 sat H3427 in the public H7339 square H7339 before the house H1004 of God H430, trembling H7460 because H5921 of this matter H1697 and the heavy rain H1653.
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.
Furthermore H1571, since H4480 the day H3117 that I was appointed H6680 to be their governor H6346 in the land H776 of Judah H3063, from the twentieth H6242 year H8141 to the thirty-second H7970 H8147 year H8141 of King H4428 Artaxerxes H783, for twelve H8147 H6240 years H8141, neither H3808 I nor H3808 my kinsmen H251 have eaten H398 the governor's H6346 food H3899 allowance.
These H428 are the [fn]people H1121 of the province H4082 who came H5927 up H5927 from the captivity H7628 of the exiles H1473 whom H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 into H1540 exile H1540, and who returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389 and Judah H3063, each H376 to his city H5892,
Now the priests H3548, the Levites H3881, the gatekeepers H7778, the singers H7891, some H4480 of the people H5971, the temple H5411 servants H5411, and all H3605 Israel H3478 lived H3427 in their cities H5892.
And when the seventh H7637 month H2320 came H5060, the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 were in their cities H5892.
Then the Levites H3881, Jeshua H3091, Kadmiel H6934, Bani H1137, Hashabneiah H2813, Sherebiah H8274, Hodiah H1941, Shebaniah H7645, and Pethahiah H6611 said H559, “Arise H6965, bless H1288 the LORD H3068 your God H430 forever H4480 H5769 and ever H5704 H5769!
May Your glorious H3519 name H8034 be blessed H1288
And exalted H7311 above H5921 all H3605 blessing H1293 and praise H8416!
“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.
Now the rest H7605 of the people H5971, the priests H3548, the Levites H3881, the gatekeepers H7778, the singers H7891, the temple H5411 servants H5411, and all H3605 those who had separated H914 themselves from the peoples H5971 of the lands H776 to the Law H8451 of God H430, their wives H802, their sons H1121, and their daughters H1323, all H3605 those who had H3045 knowledge H3045 and understanding H995,
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;
Now the leaders H8269 of the people H5971 lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389, but the rest H7605 of the people H5971 cast H5307 lots H1486 to bring H935 one H259 out of ten H6235 to live H3427 in Jerusalem H3389, the holy H6944 city H5892, while nine-tenths H8672 H3027 remained in the other cities H5892.
Now the overseer H6496 of the Levites H3881 in Jerusalem H3389 was Uzzi H5813 the son H1121 of Bani H1137, the son H1121 of Hashabiah H2811, the son H1121 of Mattaniah H4983, the son H1121 of Mica H4316, from the sons H1121 of Asaph H623, who were the singers H7891 for the [fn]service H4399 of the house H1004 of God H430.
Then the king's H4428 scribes H5608 were summoned H7121 on the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day H3117 of the first H7223 month H2320, and it was written H3789 just H3605 H834 as Haman H2001 commanded H6680 to the king's H4428 satraps H323, to the governors H6346 who H834 were over H5921 each H4082 province H4082 and to the officials H8269 of each H5971 people H5971, each H4082 province H4082 according to its script H3791, each H5971 people H5971 according to its language H3956, being written H3789 in the name H8034 of King H4428 Ahasuerus H325 and sealed H2856 with the king's H4428 signet H2885 ring H2885.
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.
Then Haman H2001 went H3318 out H3318 that day H3117 joyful H8056 and pleased H2896 of heart H3820; but when Haman H2001 saw H7200 Mordecai H4782 at the king's H4428 gate H8179 and that he did not stand H6965 up H6965 or tremble H2111 before H4480 him, Haman H2001 was filled H4390 with anger H2534 against H5921 Mordecai H4782.
So the king's H4428 scribes H5608 were summoned H7121 at that time H6256 in the third H7992 month H2320 (that is, the month H2320 Sivan H5510), on the twenty-third H6242 H7969 [fn]day; and it was written H3789 in accordance with everything H3605 that Mordecai H4782 commanded H6680 the Jews H3064, the satraps H323, the governors H6346, and the officials H8269 of the provinces H4082 which H834 extended from India H1912 to [fn]Cush H3568, 127 H7651 H6242 H3967 provinces H4082, to every H4082 province H4082 according to its script H3791, and to every H5971 people H5971 according to their language H3956, as well as to the Jews H3064 according to their script H3791 and their language H3956.
Now the rest H7605 of the Jews H3064 who H834 were in the king's H4428 provinces H4082 assembled H6950, to defend H5975 their lives H5315 and [fn]rid H5117 themselves H5117 of their enemies H340, and to kill H2026 seventy-five H2568 H7657 thousand H505 of those who hated H8130 them; but they did not lay H7971 their hands H3027 on the plunder H961.
From people H4962 by Your hand H3027, LORD H3068,
From people H4962 [fn]of the world H2465, whose portion H2506 is in this life H2416,
And whose belly H990 You fill H4390 with Your treasure H6840;
They are H7646 satisfied H7646 with children H1121,
And leave H5117 their abundance H3499 to their babies H5768.
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
Then I looked H7200 again H7725 at all H3605 the acts H6217 of H6217 oppression H6217 which H834 were being done H6213 under H8478 the sun H8121. And behold H2009, I saw the tears H1832 of the oppressed H6231 and that they had H369 no H369 one H369 to comfort H5162 them; and power H3581 was on the side H3027 of their oppressors H6231, but they had H369 no H369 one H369 to comfort H5162 them.
There H369 will H369 be H369 no H369 end H7093 to the increase H4766 of His government H4951 or of peace H7965
On the throne H3678 of David H1732 and over H5921 [fn]his kingdom H4467,
To establish H3559 it and to uphold H5582 it with justice H4941 and righteousness H6666
From then H6258 on and forevermore H5703 H5769.
The zeal H7068 of the LORD H3068 of armies H6635 will accomplish H6213 this H2088.
Therefore H3651 this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 of armies H6635 says H559: “My people H5971, you who dwell H3427 in 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 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.
The pronouncement H4853 concerning Egypt H4714:
Behold H2009, the LORD H3068 is riding H7392 on a swift H7031 cloud H5645 and is about to come H935 to Egypt H4714;
The idols H457 of Egypt H4714 will tremble H5128 at His presence H6440,
And the heart H3824 of the Egyptians H4714 will melt H4549 within H7130 them.
From the ends H3671 of the earth H776 we hear H8085 songs H2158: “Glory H6643 to the Righteous H6662 One H6662,”
But I say H559, “[fn]I am finished H7334! I am finished H7334! Woe H188 to me!
The treacherous H898 deal H898 treacherously H898,
And the treacherous H898 deal H898 very H899 treacherously H898.”
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;
One who walks H1980 righteously H6666 and speaks H1696 with integrity H4339,
One who rejects H3988 [fn]unjust H1215 H4642 gain H1215
And shakes H5287 his hands H3709 so H4480 that H4480 they hold H8551 no H4480 bribe H7810;
One who stops H331 his ears H241 from hearing H8085 about bloodshed H1818
And shuts H6105 his eyes H5869 from looking H7200 at H7200 evil H7451;
The sword H2719 of the LORD H3068 is filled H4390 with blood H1818,
It drips H1878 with fat H2459, with the blood H1818 of lambs H3733 and goats H6260,
With the fat H2459 of the kidneys H3629 of rams H352.
For the LORD H3068 has a sacrifice H2077 in Bozrah H1224,
And a great H1419 slaughter H2874 in the land H776 of Edom H123.
Raise H5375 your eyes H5869 on high H4791
And see H7200 who H4310 has created H1254 these H428 stars,
The One who brings H3318 out H3318 their [fn]multitude H6635 by number H4557,
He calls H7121 them all H3605 by name H8034;
Because H4480 of the greatness H7230 of His might H202 and the [fn]strength H533 of His power H3581,
Go H3318 out H3318 from Babylon H894! Flee H1272 from the Chaldeans H3778!
Declare H5046 with the sound H6963 of joyful H7440 shouting H7440, proclaim H8085 this H2088,
Send H3318 it out H3318 to the end H7097 of the earth H776;
Say H559, “The LORD H3068 has redeemed H1350 His servant H5650 Jacob H3290.”
“Why H4069 was H369 there H369 no H369 one H376 when I came H935?
When I called H7121, why was H369 there H369 no H369 one H369 to answer H6030?
Is My hand H3027 so H4480 short H7114 that H4480 it cannot H4480 redeem H6304?
Or H518 do I have H369 no H369 power H3581 to rescue H5337?
Behold H2005, I dry H2717 up H2717 the sea H3220 with My rebuke H1606,
I turn H7760 rivers H5104 into H7760 a wilderness H4057;
“If H518, because H4480 of the Sabbath H7676, you restrain H7725 your foot H7272
From doing H6213 as you wish H2656 on My holy H6944 day H3117,
And call H7121 the Sabbath H7676 a pleasure H6027, and the holy H6918 day of the LORD H3068 honorable H3513,
And honor H3513 it, desisting H6213 H4480 from your own ways H1870,
“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.”
‘Do you not fear H3372 Me?' declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
‘Do you not tremble H2342 in My presence H6440?
For I have placed H7760 the sand H2344 as a boundary H1366 for the sea H3220,
An eternal H5769 limit H2706, and it will not cross H5674 over H5674 it.
Though the waves H1530 toss H1607, they cannot H3808 prevail H3201;
Though they roar H1993, they will not cross H5674 over H5674 it.
“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.
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.”
How H4970 long H5704 H4970 is the land H776 to mourn H56,
And the vegetation H6212 of the [fn]countryside H3605 H7704 to dry H3001 up H3001?
Due to the wickedness H7451 of those who live H3427 in it,
Animals H929 and birds H5775 have been snatched H5595 away H5595,
Because H3588 people have said H559, “He will not see H7200 our final H319 end H319.”
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559 concerning H5921 all H3605 My wicked H7451 neighbors H7934 who do H5060 harm H5060 to the inheritance H5159 with which H834 I have endowed H5157 My people H5971 Israel H3478: “Behold H2009, I am going to drive H5428 them out H5428 of their land H127, and I will drive H5428 the house H1004 of Judah H3063 out H5428 from among H8432 them.
Have You completely H3988 rejected H3988 Judah H3063?
Or H518 have [fn]You loathed H1602 Zion H6726?
Why H4069 have You stricken H5221 us so that we are beyond H369 healing H4832?
We waited H6960 for peace H7965, but nothing H369 good H2896 came;
And for a time H6256 of healing H4832, but behold H2009, terror H1205!
Therefore H3651, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“If H518 you return H7725, then I will restore H7725 you—
You will stand H5975 before H6440 Me;
And if H518 you extract H3318 the precious H3368 from the worthless H2151,
You will become H1961 [fn]My spokesman H6310.
They, for their part H1992, may turn H7725 to you,
But as for you, you are not to turn H7725 to them.
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: “Do not enter H935 a house H1004 of mourning H4798, or go H1980 to mourn H5594 or to console H5110 them; for I have withdrawn H622 My peace H7965 from this H2088 people H5971,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068, “and My favor H2617 and compassion H7356.
Then they said H559, “Come H1980 and let's devise H2803 plans H4284 against H5921 Jeremiah H3414. Certainly H3588 the Law H8451 is not going to be lost H6 by the priest H3548, nor H3808 advice H6098 by the wise H2450, nor H3808 the divine word H1697 by the prophet H5030! Come H1980, and let's strike H5221 at him with our tongue H3956, and let's pay H7181 no H408 attention H7181 to any H3605 of his words H1697.”
“Also among the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389 I have seen H7200 a horrible H8186 thing H8186:
The committing H5003 of H5003 adultery H5003 and walking H1980 in deceit H8267;
And they strengthen H2388 the hands H3027 of evildoers H7489,
So that no H1115 one H376 has turned H7725 back H7725 from his wickedness H7451.
“Therefore H3651 this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635 says H559 concerning H5921 the prophets H5030:
‘Behold H2009, I am going to feed H398 them wormwood H3939
And make H8248 them drink H8248 poisonous H7219 water H4325,
For from the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389
Ungodliness H2613 has spread H3318 into all H3605 the land H776.'”
‘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.
“And you shall say H559 to them, ‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478 says H559: “Drink H8354, be H7937 drunk H7937, vomit H7006, fall H5307 down, and do not get H6965 up H6965, because H4480 H6440 of the sword H2719 which H834 I am sending H7971 among H996 you.”'
“Therefore you shall prophesy H5012 against H413 them all H3605 these H428 words H1697, and you shall say H559 to them,
‘The LORD H3068 will roar H7580 from on high H4791
And raise H5414 His voice H6963 from His holy H6944 dwelling H4583;
He will roar H7580 forcefully H7580 against H5921 His [fn]fold H5116.
He will shout H1959 like those who tread H1869 the grapes,
Against H413 all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of the earth H776.
“Did Hezekiah H2396 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and all H3605 Judah H3063 actually H4191 put H4191 him to H4191 death H4191? Did he not fear H3372 the LORD H3068 and plead H2470 for H2470 the favor H6440 of the LORD H3068, and the LORD H3068 relented H5162 of the disaster H7451 which H834 He had pronounced H1696 against H5921 them? But we are committing H6213 a great H1419 evil H7451 against H5921 our own lives H5315!”
Now in the same H1931 year H8141, in the beginning H7225 of the reign H4467 of Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 of Judah H3063, in the fourth H7243 year H8141, in the fifth H2549 month H2320, Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030 the son H1121 of Azzur H5809, who H834 was from Gibeon H1391, spoke H559 to me at the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 in the sight H5869 of the priests H3548 and all H3605 the people H5971, saying H559,
‘It shall come H1961 about H1961 on that day H3117,' declares H5002 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, ‘that I will break H7665 his yoke H5923 from [fn]their necks H6677 and will tear H5423 to H5423 pieces H5423 [fn]their restraints H4147; and strangers H2114 will no H3808 longer H5750 make H5647 [fn]them their slaves H5647.
“Behold H2009, I am bringing H935 them from the north H6828 country H776,
And I will gather H6908 them from the remote H3411 parts H3411 of the earth H776,
Among them those who are blind H5787 and those who limp H6455,
The pregnant H2030 woman H2030 and she who is in H3205 labor H3205, together H3162;
They will return H7725 here H2008 as a great H1419 assembly H6951.
“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,
Then Jeremiah H3414 took H3947 another H312 scroll H4039 and gave H5414 it to the scribe H5608 Baruch H1263 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374, and he wrote H3789 on it at the [fn]dictation H6310 of Jeremiah H3414 all H3605 the words H1697 of the book H5612 which H834 Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 of Judah H3063 had burned H8313 in the fire H784; and many H7227 [fn]similar words H1697 were added H3254 to them.
“[fn]Your close H7965 friends H376 H7965
Have misled H5496 and overpowered H3201 you;
Now in the seventh H7637 month H2320 Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418, the son H1121 of Elishama H476, of the royal H4410 [fn]family H2233 and one of the chief H7227 officers H7227 of the king H4428, along with ten H6235 men H376, came H935 to Mizpah H4709 to Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam H296. While they were eating H398 bread H3899 together H3162 there H8033 in Mizpah H4709,
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.
This is the message H1697 which H834 Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 spoke H1696 to Baruch H1263 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374, when he had written H3789 these H428 words H1697 in a book H5612 [fn]at Jeremiah's H3414 dictation H6310, in the fourth H7243 year H8141 of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977, king H4428 of Judah H3063, saying H559:
For that day H3117 belongs to the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 of armies H6635,
A day H3117 of vengeance H5360, so as to avenge H5358 Himself on His foes H6862;
And the sword H2719 will devour H398 and be H7646 satisfied H7646,
And [fn]drink H7301 its fill H7301 of their blood H1818;
For there will be a slaughter H2077 for the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 of armies H6635,
In the land H776 of the north H6828 at the river H5104 Euphrates H6578.
“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.
“The one who flees H5127 from the terror H6343
Will fall H5307 into the pit H6354,
And the one who climbs H5927 up H5927 out of the pit H6354
Will be caught H3920 in the snare H6341;
For I will bring H935 upon her, upon Moab H4124,
The year H8141 of their punishment H6486,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
“Behold H2009, I am going to bring H935 terror H6343 upon you,”
Declares H5002 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 of armies H6635,
“From all H3605 directions around H5439 you;
And you will be driven H5080 away H5080 [fn]one H376 after H6440 another,
With no H369 one H369 to gather H6908 the fugitives H5074 together.
“For a nation H1471 has come H5927 up H5927 against H5921 her from the north H6828; it will make H7896 her land H776 an object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047, and there will be no H3808 inhabitant H3427 in it. Whether H4480 people H120 or H5704 animals H929, they have wandered H5110 off H5110, they have gone H1980!
“Behold H2009, one will come H5927 up H5927 like a lion H738 from the thicket H1347 of the Jordan H3383 to a perennially H386 watered pasture H5116; for in an instant H7280 I will chase H7323 them away H4480 from it, and I will appoint H6485 over H413 it whoever H4310 is chosen H977. For who H4310 is like H3644 Me, and who H4310 will summon H3259 Me into court? And who H4310 then H2088 is the shepherd H7462 who H834 can stand H5975 against H6440 Me?”
As I looked H7200, behold H2009, a high H5591 wind H7307 was coming H935 from the north H6828, a great H1419 cloud H6051 with fire H784 flashing H3947 intermittently H3947 and a bright H5051 light H5051 around H5439 it, and in its midst H8432 something like gleaming H5869 [fn]metal H2830 in the midst H8432 of the fire H784.
Then He said H559 to me, “Son H1121 of man H120, raise H5375 your eyes H5869 now H4994 toward H1870 the north H6828.” So I raised H5375 my eyes H5869 toward H1870 the north H6828, and behold H2009, to the north H6828 of the altar H4196 gate H8179 was this H2088 idol H5566 of jealousy H7068 at the entrance H872.
Therefore H3651, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “Behold H2009, I am against H413 your magic bands H3704 by which H834 you capture H6679 souls H5315 there H8033 as [fn]birds H6524, and I will tear H7167 them from your arms H2220; and I will let H7971 [fn]them go H7971, those souls H5315 whom H834 you capture H6679 as [fn]birds H6524.
‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559:
“I will also destroy H6 the idols H1544
And make the [fn]images H457 cease H7673 from [fn]Memphis H5297.
And there will no H3808 longer H5750 be a prince H5387 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714;
And I will put H5414 fear H3374 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
“Now as for you, son H1121 of man H120, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: ‘Say H559 to every H3605 [fn]kind H3671 of bird H6833 and to every H3605 animal H2416 of the field H7704: “Assemble H6908 and come H935, gather H622 from every H5439 direction H5439 to My sacrifice H2077, which H834 I am going to sacrifice H2076 for you as a great H1419 sacrifice H2077 on the mountains H2022 of Israel H3478; and you will eat H398 flesh H1320 and drink H8354 blood H1818.
“Now when you divide H5307 the land H776 by H5307 lot H5307 for inheritance H5159, you shall offer H7311 [fn]an allotment H8641 to the LORD H3068, a holy H6944 portion H6944 of the land H776; the length H753 shall be a length H753 of twenty-five H2568 H6242 thousand H505 [fn]cubits, and the width H7341 shall be [fn]twenty H6235 thousand H505. It shall be holy H6944 within its entire H3605 surrounding H5439 boundary H1366.
“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.
‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559: “Enough H7227, you princes H5387 of Israel H3478; get H5493 rid H5493 of violence H2555 and destruction H7701, and practice H6213 justice H4941 and righteousness H6666. Revoke H7311 your evictions H1646 of My people H5971,” declares H5002 the Lord H136 GOD H3068.
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.
“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.
Then H116 Daniel H1841 was brought H5954 in H5954 before H6925 the king H4430. The king H4430 began H6032 speaking H6032 and said H560 to Daniel H1841, “Are you that Daniel H1841 who H1768 is one of the [fn]exiles H1123 H1547 from Judah H3061, whom H1768 my father H2 the king H4430 brought H858 from Judah H3061?
For He is the living H2417 God H426 and enduring H7011 forever H5957,
And His kingdom H4437 is one which H1768 will not be destroyed H2255,
“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.
When the LORD H3068 first H8462 spoke H1696 through Hosea H1954, the LORD H3068 said H559 to Hosea H1954, “Go H1980, take H3947 for yourself a wife H802 [fn]inclined to infidelity H2183, and children H3206 of infidelity H2183; for the land H776 commits H2181 flagrant H2181 infidelity H2181, [fn]abandoning H4480 H310 the LORD H3068.”
A day H3117 of darkness H2822 and gloom H653,
A day H3117 of clouds H6051 and thick H6205 darkness H6205.
As dawn H7837 is spread H6566 over H5921 the mountains H2022,
So there is a great H7227 and mighty H6099 people H5971;
There has never H3808 H4480 H5769 been H1961 anything like H3644 it,
“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,
“My people H5971, remember H2142 now H4994
What H4100 Balak H1111 king H4428 of Moab H4124 planned H3289
And what H4100 Balaam H1109 son H1121 of Beor H1160 answered H6030 him,
And what happened from Shittim H7851 to Gilgal H1537,
[fn]So H4616 that H4616 you might know H3045 the righteous H6666 acts H6666 of the LORD H3068.”
I heard H8085, and my [fn]inner H990 parts H990 trembled H7264;
At the sound H6963, my lips H8193 quivered H6750.
Decay H7538 enters H935 my bones H6106,
And in H8478 my place H8478 I tremble H7264;
Because H834 I [fn]must wait H5117 quietly H5117 for the day H3117 of distress H6869,
[fn]For the people H5971 to arise H5927 who will attack H1464 us.
Even H3588 if H3588 the fig H8384 tree H8384 does not blossom H6524,
And there H369 is H369 no H369 [fn]fruit H2981 on the vines H1612,
If the yield H4639 of the olive H2132 fails H3584,
And the fields H7709 produce H6213 no H3808 food H400,
Even if the flock H6629 disappears H1504 from the fold H4356,
And there H369 are H369 no H369 cattle H1241 in the stalls H7517,
“I will remove H5486 human H120 and animal H929 life;
I will remove H5486 the birds H5775 of the sky H8064
And the fish H1709 of the sea H3220,
And the [fn]ruins H4384 along H854 with the wicked H7563;
And I will eliminate H3772 mankind H120 from the face H6440 of the [fn]earth H127,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
“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
Then Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel H7597, and Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Jehozadak H3087, the high H1419 priest H3548, with all H3605 the remnant H7611 of the people H5971, obeyed H8085 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 their God H430 and the words H1697 of Haggai H2292 the prophet H5030, just H834 as H834 the LORD H3068 their God H430 had sent H7971 him. And the people H5971 [fn]showed H3372 reverence H3372 for the LORD H3068.
“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.
All H3605 the land H776 will change H5437 into a plain H6160 from Geba H1387 to Rimmon H7417 south H5045 of Jerusalem H3389; but [fn]Jerusalem will rise H7213 and remain H3427 on its site H8478 from Benjamin's H1144 Gate H8179 as far H5704 as the place H4725 of the First H7223 Gate H8179 to the Corner H6438 Gate H8179, and from the Tower H4026 of Hananel H2606 to the king's H4428 wine H3342 presses H3342.
