Then Abraham H85 took H3947 his son H1121 Ishmael H3458, and all H3605 the slaves who were born H3211 in his house H1004 and all H3605 who were bought H4736 with his money H3701, every H3605 male H2145 among the men H376 of Abraham's H85 household H1004, and circumcised H4135 the flesh H1320 of their foreskin H6190 on this H2088 very H6106 same H6106 day H3117, as God H430 had said H1696 to him.
Then Laban H3837 replied H6030 to Jacob H3290, “The daughters H1323 are my daughters H1323, the [fn]children H1121 are my [fn]grandchildren H1121, the flocks H6629 are my flocks H6629, and everything H3605 that you see H7200 is mine. But what H4100 can I do H6213 this day H3117 to these H428 daughters H1323 of mine or H176 to their children H1121 to whom H834 they have given H3205 birth H3205?
Joseph H3130, when he was seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 of age H1121, was pasturing H7462 the flock H6629 with his brothers H251, while he was still a youth H5288, along with the sons H1121 of Bilhah H1090 and the sons H1121 of Zilpah H2153, his father's H1 wives H802. And Joseph H3130 brought H935 back a bad H1681 H7451 report H1681 about them to their father H1.
Then they sat H3427 down H3427 to eat H398 [fn]a meal H3899. But as they raised H5375 their eyes H5869 and looked H7200, behold H2009, a caravan H736 of Ishmaelites H3459 was coming H935 from Gilead H1568, with their camels H1581 carrying H5375 labdanum H5219 resin H5219, balsam H6875, and [fn]myrrh H3910, [fn]on H1980 their way H1980 to bring H3381 them down H3381 to Egypt H4714.
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.
Then Joseph H3130 went H935 in H935 and told H5046 Pharaoh H6547, and said H559, “My father H1 and my brothers H251 and their flocks H6629 and their herds H1241 and all H3605 that they have, have come H935 out of the land H776 of Canaan H3667; and behold H2009, they are in the land H776 of Goshen H1657.”
Now it came H1961 about H1961 in those H1992 days H3117, when Moses H4872 had grown H1431 up H1431, that he went H3318 out H3318 to his [fn]fellow H251 Hebrews H251 and looked H7200 at their [fn]hard H5450 labors H5450; and he saw H7200 an Egyptian H4713 beating H5221 a Hebrew H5680, one H4480 of his [fn]fellow H251 Hebrews H251.
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.
Then they set H5265 out H5265 from Elim H362, and all H3605 the congregation H5712 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 came H935 to the wilderness H4057 of Sin H5512, which H834 is between H996 Elim H362 and Sinai H5514, on the fifteenth H2568 H6240 day H3117 of the second H8145 month H2320 after their departure H3318 from the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
Then all H3605 the congregation H5712 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 journeyed H5265 by [fn]stages H4550 from the wilderness H4057 of Sin H5512, according H5921 to the [fn]command H6310 of the LORD H3068, and camped H2583 at Rephidim H7508, and there H369 was H369 no H369 water H4325 for the people H5971 to drink H8354.
“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),
‘If there is a man H376 who H834 takes H3947 his sister H269, his father's H1 daughter H1323 or H176 his mother's H517 daughter H1323, so that he sees H7200 her nakedness H6172 and she sees H7200 his nakedness H6172, it is a disgrace H2617; and they shall be cut H3772 off H3772 in the sight H5869 of the sons H1121 of their people H5971. He has uncovered H1540 his sister's H269 nakedness H6172; he bears H5375 his guilt H5771.
‘These H428 are the appointed H4150 times H4150 of the LORD H3068 which H834 you shall proclaim H7121 as holy H6944 convocations H4744, to present H7126 offerings H801 by H801 fire H801 to the LORD H3068—burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and grain offerings H4503, sacrifices H2077 and drink H5262 offerings H5262, each day's H3117 matter H1697 on its own day H3117—
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,
So they moved H5265 on H5265 from the mountain H2022 of the LORD H3068 three H7969 days' H3117 journey H1870, with the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 going H5265 on H5265 in front H6440 of them for the [fn]three H7969 days H3117, to seek H8446 out H8446 a resting H4496 place H4496 for them.
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.
Then the daughters H1323 of Zelophehad H6765, the son H1121 of Hepher H2660, the son H1121 of Gilead H1568, the son H1121 of Machir H4353, the son H1121 of Manasseh H4519, of the families H4940 of Manasseh H4519 the son H1121 of Joseph H3130, came H7126 forward H7126; and these H428 are the names H8034 of his daughters H1323: Mahlah H4244, Noah H5270, Hoglah H2295, Milcah H4435, and Tirzah H8656.
“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.
“When H3588 you go H3318 out H3318 to battle H4421 against H5921 your enemies H340 and see H7200 horses H5483, chariots H7393, and people H5971 more H7227 numerous H7227 than H4480 you, do not be H3372 afraid H3372 of them; for the LORD H3068 your God H430, who H834 brought H5927 you up H5927 from the land H776 of Egypt H4714, is with you.
“If H3588 someone H376 is [fn]caught H4672 kidnapping H1589 any H5315 of his countrymen H251 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, and he treats H6014 him as H6014 merchandise H6014 and sells H4376 him, then that thief H1590 shall die H4191; so you shall eliminate H1197 the evil H7451 from among H7130 you.
“When H3588 brothers H251 live H3427 together H3162, and one H259 of them dies H4191 and has H369 no H369 son H1121, the wife H802 of the deceased H4191 shall not be married outside H2351 the family to a strange H2114 man H376. Her husband's H2993 brother H2993 shall have H935 relations H935 with H935 her and take H3947 her to himself as his wife H802, and perform H2992 the duty H2992 of H2992 a H2992 husband's H2992 brother H2992 to her.
“If H3588 two men H376, a man H376 and his countryman H251, have H5327 a H5327 fight H5327 [fn]with H3162 each H3162 other H3162, and the wife H802 of one H259 comes H7126 up H7126 to save H5337 her husband H376 from the hand H3027 of the one who is hitting H5221 him, and she reaches H7971 out H7971 with her hand H3027 and grasps H2388 [fn]that man's genitals H4016,
“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.
‘They have made H7065 Me jealous H7065 with what is not God H410;
They have provoked H3707 Me to H3707 anger H3707 with their [fn]idols H1892.
So I will make H7065 them jealous H7065 with those who are not a people H5971;
I will provoke H3707 them to H3707 anger H3707 with a foolish H5036 nation H1471,
“Blessed H835 are you, Israel H3478;
Who H4310 is like H3644 you, a people H5971 saved H3467 by the LORD H3068,
The shield H4043 of your help H5828,
And He who is the sword H2719 of your majesty H1346!
So your enemies H340 will cringe H3584 before you,
And you will trample H1869 on their high H1116 places H1116.”
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.
Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to Joshua H3091, “Reach H5186 out H5186 with the sword H3591 that is in your hand H3027 toward H413 Ai H5857, for I will hand H5414 H3027 it over H5414 to you.” So Joshua H3091 reached H5186 out H5186 with the sword H3591 that was in his hand H3027 toward H413 the city H5892.
So the sun H8121 stood H1826 still H1826, and the moon H3394 stopped H5975,
Until H5704 the nation H1471 avenged H5358 themselves of their enemies H340.
Is it not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of Jashar H3477? And the sun H8121 stopped H5975 in the middle H2677 of the sky H8064 and did not hurry H213 to go H935 down for about H935 a whole H8549 day H3117.
So Joshua H3091 struck H5221 all H3605 the land H776, the hill H2022 country H2022 and the [fn]Negev H5045 and the lowland H8219 and the slopes H794, and all H3605 their kings H4428. He left H7604 no H3808 survivor H8300, but he [fn]utterly H2763 destroyed H2763 all H3605 who H5397 breathed H5397, just H834 as H834 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, had commanded H6680.
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.”
Then Joshua H3091 came H935 at that time H6256 and eliminated H3772 the Anakim H6062 from the hill H2022 country H2022, from Hebron H2275, Debir H1688, Anab H6024, and from all H3605 the hill H2022 country H2022 of Judah H3063 and all H3605 the hill H2022 country H2022 of Israel H3478. Joshua H3091 utterly H2763 destroyed H2763 them with their cities H5892.
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:
Now these H428 are the kings H4428 of the land H776 whom H834 Joshua H3091 and the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 [fn]defeated H5221 beyond H5676 the Jordan H3383 toward the west H3220, from Baal-gad H1171 in the Valley H1237 of Lebanon H3844 even as far H5704 as Mount H2022 Halak H2510, which rises H5927 toward Seir H8165; and Joshua H3091 gave H5414 it to the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 as a possession H3425 according to their divisions H4256,
Now to the one half-tribe H2677 H7626 of Manasseh H4519 Moses H4872 had given H5414 a possession in Bashan H1316, but to the other half H2677 Joshua H3091 gave H5414 a possession among H5973 their brothers H251 westward H3220 beyond H5676 the Jordan H3383. So when H3588 Joshua H3091 sent H7971 them away H7971 to their tents H168, he also blessed H1288 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.
So Gideon H1439 and the hundred H3967 men H376 who H834 were with him came H935 to the outskirts H7097 of the camp H4264 at the beginning H7218 of the middle H8484 night H821 watch H821, when H389 they had just H389 posted H6965 the watch H8104; and they blew H8628 the trumpets H7782 and smashed H5310 the pitchers H3537 that were in their hands H3027.
Now Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 were in Karkor H7174, and their [fn]armies H4264 with them, about fifteen H2568 H6240 thousand H505 men, all H3605 who were left H3498 of the entire H3605 [fn]army H4264 of the [fn]people H1121 of the east H6924; for the fallen H5307 were 120,000 H3967 H6242 H505 [fn]swordsmen H376 H8025 H2719.
Then the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 rushed H6743 upon H5921 him, and he went H3381 down H3381 to Ashkelon H831 and killed H5221 thirty H7970 men H376 of them and took H3947 what H2488 they were wearing H2488 and gave H5414 the outfits H2487 of H2487 clothes H2487 to those who told H5046 the riddle H2420. And his anger H639 burned H2734, and he went H5927 up H5927 to his father's H1 house H1004.
When Delilah H1807 saw H7200 that he had told H5046 her all H3605 that was in his heart H3820, she sent H7971 word and called H7121 the governors H5633 of the Philistines H6430, saying H559, “Come H5927 up H5927 once H6471 more H6471, for he has told H5046 me all H3605 that is in his heart H3820.” Then the governors H5633 of the Philistines H6430 came H5927 up H5927 to her and brought H5927 up H5927 the money H3701 in their hands H3027.
It so happened H1961 when [fn]they were in high H2895 spirits H3820, that they said H559, “Call H7121 for Samson H8123, that he may amuse H7832 us.” So they called H7121 for Samson H8123 from the prison H1004 H631, and he [fn]entertained H6711 H6440 them. And they made him stand H5975 between H996 the pillars H5982.
Then the five H2568 men H376 who went H1980 to spy H7270 out H7270 the country H776 of Laish H3919 [fn]said H559 to their kinsmen H251, “Do you know H3045 that there H3426 are H3426 in these H428 houses H1004 an ephod H646 and [fn]household H8655 idols H8655, and a carved H6459 image H6459 and a cast H4541 metal H4541 image H4541? Now H6258 then, consider H3045 what H4100 you should do H6213.”
While they were [fn]celebrating H3190 H3820, behold H2009, the men H376 of the city H5892, certain H376 [fn]worthless H1100 men H1121, surrounded H5437 the house H1004, pushing H1849 one another at the door H1817; and they spoke H559 to the owner H1167 of the house H1004, the old H2205 man H376, saying H559, “Bring H3318 out H3318 the man H376 who H834 entered H935 your house H1004 that we may [fn]have H3045 relations H3045 with him.”
Then they got H7925 up H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and worshiped H2331 before H6440 the LORD H3068, and returned H7725 H935 again H7725 to their house H1004 in Ramah H7414. And Elkanah H511 [fn]had H3045 relations H3045 with Hannah H2584 his wife H802, and the LORD H3068 remembered H2142 her.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 in those H1992 days H3117 that the Philistines H6430 gathered H6908 their armed camps H4264 for war H6635, to fight H3898 against Israel H3478. And Achish H397 said H559 to David H1732, “Know H3045 for H3045 certain H3045 that you will go H3318 out H3318 with me in the camp H4264, you and your men H376.”
Now when the people H376 of Israel H3478 who H834 were on the other H5676 side H5676 of the valley H6010, with those who H834 were beyond H5676 the Jordan H3383, saw H7200 that the men H376 of Israel H3478 had fled H5127 and that Saul H7586 and his sons H1121 were dead H4191, they abandoned H5800 the cities H5892 and fled H5127; then the Philistines H6430 came H935 and settled H3427 in them.
And behold H2009, the servants H5650 of David H1732 and Joab H3097 came H935 from a raid H1416 and brought H935 a large H7227 amount H7227 of plunder H7998 with them; but Abner H74 was not with David H1732 in Hebron H2275, since H3588 he had let H7971 him go H7971, and he had gone H1980 in peace H7965.
Then Ahimaaz H290 called H7121 out H7121 and said H559 to the king H4428, “[fn]All is well H7965.” And he prostrated H2331 himself before the king H4428 with his face H639 to the ground H776. And he said H559, “Blessed H1288 is the LORD H3068 your God H430, who H834 has turned H5462 over H5462 the men H376 who H834 raised H5375 their hands H3027 against my lord H113 the king H4428.”
When all H3605 Israel H3478 saw H7200 that the king H4428 had not listened H8085 to them, the people H5971 replied H7725 H1697 to the king H4428, saying H559,
“What H4100 share H2506 do we have in David H1732?
We have no H3808 inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448;
To your tents H168, Israel H3478!
Now H6258 look H7200 after your own house H1004, David H1732!”
Now an old H2205 prophet H5030 was living H3427 in Bethel H1008; and his [fn]sons H1121 came H935 and told H5608 him all H3605 the deeds H4639 which H834 the man H376 of God H430 had done H6213 that day H3117 in Bethel H1008; the words H1697 which H834 he had spoken H1696 to the king H4428, these also they reported H5608 to their father H1.
So the king H4428 of Israel H3478 went H1980 with the king H4428 of Judah H3063 and the king H4428 of Edom H123, and they made H5437 a H5437 circuit H5437 of seven H7651 days' H3117 journey H1870. But there was no H3808 water H4325 for the army H4264 or for the cattle H929 that [fn]followed H7272 them.
Now the watchman H6822 was standing H5975 on the tower H4026 in Jezreel H3157 and he saw H7200 the [fn]company H8229 of Jehu H3058 as he came H935, and he said H559, “I see H7200 a [fn]company H8229.” And [fn]Joram H3088 said H559, “Take H3947 a horseman H7395 and send H7971 him to meet H7122 them and have him [fn]ask H559, ‘Is your intention peace H7965?'”
Then it came H1961 about H1961, as soon as he had finished H3615 [fn]offering H6213 the burnt H5930 offering H5930, that Jehu H3058 said H559 to the [fn]guard H7323 and to the royal H7991 officers H7991, “Go H935 in H935, [fn]kill H5221 them; let none H376 H408 come H3318 out H3318.” So they [fn]killed H5221 them with the edge H6310 of the sword H2719; and the [fn]guard H7323 and the royal H7991 officers H7991 threw H7993 them out H7993, and went H1980 to the [fn]sanctuary H5892 of the house H1004 of Baal H1168.
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.
Now this came H1961 about H1961 because H3588 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 had sinned H2398 against the LORD H3068 their God H430, who had brought H5927 them up H5927 from the land H776 of Egypt H4714, from under H8478 the hand H3027 of Pharaoh H6547, king H4428 of Egypt H4714; and they had [fn]feared H3372 other H312 gods H430.
To this H2088 day H3117 they act H6213 in accordance with the earlier H7223 customs H4941: they do not fear H3372 the LORD H3068, nor H369 do they [fn]follow H6213 their statutes H2708, their ordinances H4941, the Law H8451, or the commandments H4687 which H834 the LORD H3068 commanded H6680 the sons H1121 of Jacob H3290, whom H834 He named H7760 H8034 Israel H3478.
‘Then this H2088 shall be the sign H226 for you: [fn]you will eat H398 this year H8141 what H5599 grows H5599 of H5599 itself H5599, in the second H8145 year H8141 what H7823 grows H7823 by H7823 itself H7823, and in the third H7992 year H8141 sow H2232, harvest H7114, plant H5193 vineyards H3754, and eat H398 their fruit H6529.
Then the king H4428 commanded H6680 Hilkiah H2518 the high H1419 priest H3548, the priests H3548 of the second H4932 order, and the [fn]doorkeepers H8104 H5592 to bring H3318 out H3318 of the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 all H3605 the utensils H3627 that had been made H6213 for Baal H1168, for [fn]Asherah H842, and for all H3605 the heavenly H8064 [fn]lights H6635; and he burned H8313 them outside H4480 H2351 Jerusalem H3389 in the fields H7709 of the Kidron H6939 Valley, and carried H5375 their ashes H6083 to Bethel H1008.
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.
When the Arameans H758 saw H7200 that they had been [fn]defeated H5062 by Israel H3478, they sent H7971 messengers H4397 and brought H3318 out H3318 the Arameans H758 who H834 were beyond H4480 H5676 the Euphrates River H5104, with Shophach H7780 the commander H8269 of the army H6635 of Hadadezer H1909 [fn]leading H6440 them.
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.
Moreover, David H1732 and the commanders H8269 of the army H6635 set H914 apart H914 for the service H5656 some of the sons H1121 of Asaph H623, Heman H1968, and Jeduthun H3038, who were to prophesy H5012 with lyres H3658, harps H5035, and cymbals H4700; and the number H4557 of [fn]those H376 who performed H4399 this service H5656 was:
Now this is the number H4557 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, the heads H7218 of fathers' H1 households, the commanders H8269 of thousands H505 and of hundreds H3967, and their officers H7860 who served H8334 the king H4428 in all H3605 the affairs H1697 of the divisions H4256 which came H935 in H935 and went H3318 out H3318 month H2320 by month H2320 throughout H3605 the months H2320 of the year H8141, each H259 division H4256 numbering twenty-four H6242 H702 thousand H505:
Then David H1732 said H559 to all H3605 the assembly H6951, “Now H4994 bless H1288 the LORD H3068 your God H430.” And all H3605 the assembly H6951 blessed H1288 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of their fathers H1, and bowed H6915 down H6915 and paid H2331 [fn]homage H2331 to the LORD H3068 and the king H4428.
“If H3588 there is a famine H7458 in the land H776, if H3588 there is a plague H1698, if H3588 there is blight H7711 or mildew H3420, if H3588 there is locust H697 or grasshopper H2625, if H3588 their enemies H340 besiege H6887 them in the land H776 of their [fn]cities H8179, whatever H3605 plague H5061 or whatever H3605 sickness H4245 there is,
Now according to the ordinance H4941 of his father H1 David H1732, he appointed H5975 the divisions H4256 of the priests H3548 for their service H5656, and the Levites H3881 for their duties H4931 of praise H1984 and ministering H8334 before H5048 the priests H3548 according to the daily H3117 rule H1697, and the gatekeepers H7778 by their divisions H4256 at every H8179 gate H8179; for this H3651 is what H3651 David H1732, the man H376 of God H430, had commanded H4687.
When all H3605 Israel H3478 saw that the king H4428 had not listened H8085 to them, the people H5971 replied H7725 to the king H4428, saying H559,
“What H4100 share H2506 do we have in David H1732?
We have no H3808 inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448.
Everyone H376 to your tents H168, Israel H3478!
Now H6258 look H7200 after your own house H1004, David H1732!”
So all H3605 Israel H3478 went H1980 away to their tents H168.
Then the messenger H4397 who H834 went H1980 to summon H7121 Micaiah H4321 spoke H1696 to him saying H559, “Behold H2009, the words H1697 of the prophets H5030 are [fn]unanimously H259 H6310 favorable H2896 to the king H4428. So please H4994 let your word H1697 be like one H259 of them, and speak H1696 favorably H2896.”
Now it happened H1961 at the turn H8622 of the year H8141 that the army H2428 of the Arameans H758 came H5927 up H5927 against H5921 Joash; and they came H935 to Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389, destroyed H7843 all H3605 the officials H8269 of the people H5971 from among the people H5971, and sent H7971 all H3605 their spoils H7998 to the king H4428 of Damascus H1834.
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.
Therefore the LORD H3068 his God H430 handed H5414 H3027 him over H5414 to the king H4428 of Aram H758; and they [fn]defeated H5221 him and carried H7617 from him a great H1419 number of captives H7633, and brought H935 them to Damascus H1834. And he was also H1571 handed H5414 H3027 over H5414 to the king H4428 of Israel H3478, who struck H5221 him with heavy H1419 casualties H4347.
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.
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.
Then the heads H7218 of fathers' H1 households of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 and the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 rose H6965 up H6965, everyone H3605 whose spirit H7307 God H430 had stirred H5782 to go H5927 up H5927 to rebuild H1129 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 which H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.
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.
Then the king H4430 sent H7972 a response H6600 to Rehum H7348 the commander H1169 H2942, Shimshai H8124 the scribe H5613, and to the rest H7606 of their colleagues H3675 who H1768 live H3488 in Samaria H8115 and in the rest H7606 of the provinces beyond H5675 the Euphrates River H5103: “Peace H8001. And now H3706,
Then H116 as soon H4481 H1768 as the copy H6573 of King H4430 Artaxerxes' H783 decree H5407 was read H7123 before H6925 Rehum H7348 and Shimshai H8124 the scribe H5613 and their colleagues H3675, they went H236 in a hurry H924 to Jerusalem H3390 to the Jews H3062 and stopped H989 them by military H2429 force H153.
At that time H2166 Tattenai H8674, the governor H6347 of the province beyond H5675 the Euphrates River H5103, and Shethar-bozenai H8370 and their colleagues H3675 came H858 to them and spoke H560 to them as H3652 follows H3652: “Who H4479 issued H7761 you a decree H2942 to rebuild H1124 this H1836 [fn]temple H1005 and to finish H3635 this H1836 structure H846?”
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.
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.
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.
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.
“You alone H905 are the LORD H3068.
You have made H6213 the heavens H8064,
The heaven H8064 of heavens H8064 with all H3605 their [fn]lights H6635,
The earth H776 and everything H3605 that is on it,
The seas H3220 and everything H3605 that is in them.
You give H2421 life H2421 to all H3605 of them,
And the heavenly H8064 [fn]lights H6635 bow H2331 down H2331 before You.
“You provided H5414 bread H3899 from heaven H8064 for them for their hunger H7458,
You brought H3318 out H3318 water H4325 from a rock H5553 for them for their thirst H6772,
And You told H559 them to enter H935 in order to take H3423 possession H3423 of
The land H776 which H834 You [fn]swore H5375 H3027 to give H5414 them.
“They refused H3985 to listen H8085,
And did not remember H2142 Your wondrous H6381 deeds H6381 which H834 You performed H6213 among H5973 them;
So they became H7185 H6203 stubborn H7185 H6203 and appointed H5414 a leader H7218 to return H7725 to their slavery H5659 in [fn]Egypt H4714.
But You are a God H433 of forgiveness H5547,
Gracious H2587 and compassionate H7349,
Slow H750 to anger H639 and abounding H7227 in [fn]mercy H2617;
And You did not abandon H5800 them.
You, in Your great H7227 compassion H7356,
Did not abandon H5800 them in the wilderness H4057;
The pillar H5982 of cloud H6051 did not leave H5493 H4480 H5921 them by day H3119,
To guide H5148 them on their way H1870,
Nor H3808 the pillar H5982 of fire H784 by night H3915, to light H215 for them the way H1870 in which H834 they were to go H1980.
“Therefore You handed H5414 H3027 them over H5414 to their enemies H6862 who oppressed H6887 them,
But when they cried H6817 out H6817 to You in the time H6256 of their distress H6869,
You heard H8085 from heaven H8064, and according to Your great H7227 compassion H7356
You gave H5414 them [fn]people H3467 who saved H3467 them from the hand H3027 of their enemies H6862.
“But as soon as they had H5117 rest H5117, they did H6213 evil H7451 again H7725 before H6440 You;
Therefore You abandoned H5800 them to the hand H3027 of their enemies H340, so that they ruled H7287 over them.
When they cried H2199 out H2199 again H7725 to You, You heard H8085 from heaven H8064,
And many H7227 times H6256 You rescued H5337 them according to Your compassion H7356,
And admonished H5749 them in order to turn H7725 them back H7725 to Your Law H8451.
Yet they acted H2102 arrogantly H2102 and did not listen H8085 to Your commandments H4687 but sinned H2398 against Your ordinances H4941,
Which H834, if a person H120 [fn]follows H6213 them, then he will live H2421 by them.
And they [fn]turned H5414 a stubborn H5637 shoulder H3802 and stiffened H7185 their neck H6203, and would not listen H8085.
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,
Now these H428 are the heads H7218 of the provinces H4082 who H834 lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389, but in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 each H376 lived H3427 on his own property H272 in their cities H5892—the [fn]Israelites H3478, the priests H3548, the Levites H3881, the [fn]temple H5411 servants H5411, and the [fn]descendants H1121 of Solomon's H8010 servants H5650.
Now at the dedication H2598 of the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 they sought H1245 out H1245 the Levites H3881 from all H3605 their places H4725, to bring H935 them to Jerusalem H3389 so that they could celebrate H6213 the dedication H2598 with joy H8057, with songs H8426 of H8426 thanksgiving H8426 and with songs H7892 to the accompaniment of cymbals H4700, harps H5035, and lyres H3658.
In those H1992 days H3117 I saw H7200 in Judah H3063 people who were treading H1869 wine H1660 presses H1660 on the Sabbath H7676, and bringing H935 in H935 sacks H6194 of H6194 grain H6194 and loading H6006 them on donkeys H2543, as well H637 as wine H3196, grapes H6025, figs H8384, and every H3605 kind of load H4853, and they were bringing H935 them into Jerusalem H3389 on the Sabbath H7676 day H3117. So I admonished H5749 them on the day H3117 they sold H4376 food H6718.
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 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.
Like sheep H6629 they sink H7743 down H7743 to [fn]Sheol H7585;
Death H4194 will be their shepherd H7462;
And the upright H3477 will rule H7287 over them in the morning H1242,
And their form H6736 shall be for [fn]Sheol H7585 to consume H1086
[fn]So H4480 that H4480 they have no H4480 lofty H2073 home H2073.
For I have taken H5414 all H3605 this H2088 to my heart H3820, even to [fn]examine H952 [fn]it all H3605, that righteous H6662 people H6662, wise H2450 people H2450, and their deeds H5652 are in the hand H3027 of God H430. People H120 do not know H3045 whether H1571 it will be love H160 or H1571 hatred H8135; anything H3605 [fn]awaits H6440 them.
Therefore H3651, as a tongue H3956 of fire H784 consumes H398 stubble H7179,
And dry H2842 grass H2842 collapses H7503 in the flame H3852,
So their root H8328 will become H1961 like rot H4716, and their blossom H6525 [fn]blow H5927 away H5927 like dust H80;
For they have rejected H3988 the Law H8451 of the LORD H3068 of armies H6635,
And discarded H5006 the word H565 of the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478.
For this H3651 reason H3651 the anger H639 of the LORD H3068 has burned H2734 against His people H5971,
And He has stretched H5186 out H5186 His hand H3027 against H5921 them and struck H5221 them.
And the mountains H2022 quaked H7264, and their corpses H5038 [fn]lay H1961 like refuse H5478 in the middle H7130 of the streets H2351.
Despite all H3605 this H2088, His anger H639 [fn]is H7725 not spent H7725,
But His hand H3027 is still H5750 stretched H5186 out H5186.
Therefore H5921 H3651 the Lord H136 does not rejoice H8055 over H8055 their young H970 men H970,
Nor H3808 does He have H7355 compassion H7355 on H7355 their [fn]orphans H3490 or their widows H490;
For every H3605 one H3605 of them is godless H2611 and an evildoer H7489,
And every H3605 mouth H6310 is speaking H1696 foolishness H5039.
In spite of all H3605 this H2088, His anger H639 does not turn H7725 away H7725,
And His hand H3027 is still H5750 stretched H5186 out H5186.
“By the power H3581 of my hand H3027 and by my wisdom H2451 I did H6213 this,
Because H3588 I have H995 understanding H995;
And I removed H5493 the boundaries H1367 of the peoples H5971
And plundered H8154 their treasures H6264,
And like a powerful H3524 man H47 I brought H3381 down H3381 [fn]their inhabitants H3427,
“Sheol H7585 below H4480 H8478 is H7264 excited H7264 about you, to meet H7122 you when you come H935;
It stirs H5782 the [fn]spirits H7496 of H7496 the H7496 dead H7496 for you, all H3605 the [fn]leaders H6260 of the earth H776;
It raises H6965 all H3605 the kings H4428 of the nations H1471 from their thrones H3678.
Yet gleanings H5955 will be left H7604 in it like the [fn]shaking H5363 of an olive H2132 tree H2132,
Two H8147 or three H7969 olives H1620 on the topmost H7218 H534 branch H534,
Four H702 or five H2568 on the branches H5585 of a fruitful H6509 tree H6509,
Declares H5002 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478.
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.
Therefore H3651 through this H2088 Jacob's H3290 wrongdoing H5771 will be forgiven H3722;
And this H2088 will be [fn]the full H3605 price H6529 of the [fn]pardoning H5493 of his sin H2403:
When he makes H7760 all H3605 the altar H4196 stones H68 like pulverized H5310 chalk H1615 stones H68;
When [fn]Asherim H842 and incense H2553 altars H2553 will not stand H6965.
It will be as when H834 a hungry H7457 person H7457 dreams H2492—
And behold H2009, he is eating H398;
But when he awakens H6974, his [fn]hunger H5315 is not satisfied H7386,
Or as when H834 a thirsty H6771 person H6771 dreams H2492—
And behold H2009, he is drinking H8354,
But when he awakens H6974, behold H2009, he is faint H5889
And his [fn]thirst H5315 is not quenched H8264.
So H3651 will the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 be
Who wage H6633 war H6633 against H5921 Mount H2022 Zion H6726.
“Because H3282 H3588 this H2088 people H5971 approaches H5066 Me with their [fn]words H6310
And honors H3513 Me with their lips H8193,
But their heart H3820 is H7368 far H7368 away H7368 from Me,
And their [fn]reverence H3372 for Me [fn]consists H1961 of the commandment H4687 of men H376 that is taught H3925;
The pronouncement H4853 concerning the animals H929 of the Negev H5045:
Through a land H776 of distress H6869 and anguish H6695,
From [fn]where H1992 come lioness H3833 and lion H3918, viper H660 and flying H5774 serpent H8314,
They carry H5375 their riches H2428 on the [fn]backs H3802 of young H5895 donkeys H5895,
“Then this H2088 shall be the sign H226 for you: [fn]you will eat H398 this year H8141 what H5599 grows H5599 of H5599 itself H5599, in the second H8145 year H8141 what H7823 grows H7823 from the same, and in the third H7992 year H8141 sow H2232, harvest H7114, plant H5193 vineyards H3754, and eat H398 their fruit H6529.
[fn]Scarcely H1077 H637 have they been planted H5193,
[fn]Scarcely H1077 H637 have they been sown H2232,
[fn]Scarcely H1077 H637 has their stock H1503 taken H8327 root H8327 in the earth H776,
But He merely H1571 blows H5398 on them, and they wither H3001,
And the storm H5591 carries H5375 them away like stubble H7179.
“I will feed H398 your oppressors H3238 with their own flesh H1320,
And they will become H7937 drunk H7937 with their own blood H1818 as with sweet H6071 wine H6071;
And [fn]humanity H1320 will know H3045 that I, the LORD H3068, am your Savior H3467
And your Redeemer H1350, the Mighty H46 One H46 of Jacob H3290.”
“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;
Therefore H3651, I will allot H2505 Him a H2505 portion H2505 with the great H7227,
And He will divide H2505 the plunder H7998 with the strong H6099,
Because H8478 H834 He poured H6168 out H6168 His [fn]life H5315 unto death H4194,
And was counted H4487 with wrongdoers H6586;
Yet He Himself H1931 bore H5375 the sin H2399 of many H7227,
Even those I will bring H935 to My holy H6944 mountain H2022,
And make H8055 them joyful H8055 in My house H1004 of prayer H8605.
Their burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and their sacrifices H2077 will be acceptable H7522 on My altar H4196;
For My house H1004 will be called H7121 a house H1004 of prayer H8605 for all H3605 the peoples H5971.”
And the dogs H3611 are [fn]greedy H5315 H5794, they [fn]are never H3808 satisfied H3045 H7654.
And they are shepherds H7462 who have H3045 no H3808 understanding H995;
They have all H3605 turned H6437 to their own way H1870,
Each H376 one H376 to his unjust H1215 gain H1215, [fn]without H4480 exception H7097.
“Certainly H3588 the coastlands H339 will wait H6960 for Me;
And the ships H591 of Tarshish H8659 will come first H7223,
To bring H935 your sons H1121 from afar H7350,
Their silver H3701 and their gold H2091 with them,
For the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 your God H430,
And for the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 because H3588 He has glorified H6286 you.
Both your own wrongdoings H5771 and the wrongdoings H5771 of your fathers H1 together H3162,” says H559 the LORD H3068.
“Because H834 they have burned H6999 incense H6999 on the mountains H2022
And scorned H2778 Me on the hills H1389,
Therefore I will measure H4058 their former H7223 work H6468 [fn]into their laps H2436.”
“Because H834 the one who [fn]is blessed H1288 on the earth H776
Will [fn]be blessed H1288 by the God H430 of truth H543;
And the one who swears H7650 an oath on the earth H776
Will swear H7650 by the God H430 of truth H543;
Because H3588 the former H7223 troubles H6869 are forgotten H7911,
And because H3588 they are hidden H5641 from My sight H5869!
“But the one who slaughters H7819 an ox H7794 is like one who kills H5221 a person H376;
The one who sacrifices H2076 a lamb H7716 is like one who breaks H6202 a dog's H3611 neck H6202;
One who offers H5927 a grain offering H4503 is like one who offers pig's H2386 blood H1818;
One who [fn]burns H2142 incense H3828 is like one who blesses H1288 an idol H205.
As they have chosen H977 their own ways H1870,
And their souls H5315 delight H2654 in their abominations H8251,
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559: “Behold H2009, I extend H5186 peace H7965 to her like a river H5104,
And the glory H3519 of the nations H1471 like an overflowing H7857 stream H5158;
And you will [fn]be nursed H3243, you will be carried H5375 on the [fn]hip H6654 and rocked H8173 back H8173 and H8173 forth H8173 on the knees H1290.
Therefore H5921 H3651 a lion H738 from the forest H3293 will kill H5221 them,
A wolf H2061 of the deserts H6160 will destroy H7703 them,
A leopard H5246 is watching H8245 their cities H5892.
Everyone H3605 who goes H3318 out H3318 of them will be torn H2963 in H2963 pieces H2963,
“Were H954 they ashamed H954 because H3588 of the abomination H8441 they had done H6213?
They were H954 not ashamed H954 at H1571 all H954 H1571,
Nor H1571 did they know H3045 even H1571 how to be ashamed H3637.
Therefore H3651 they will fall H5307 among those who fall H5307;
“At that time H6256,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068, “they will bring H3318 out H3318 the bones H6106 of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063, the bones H6106 of its leaders H8269, the bones H6106 of the priests H3548, the bones H6106 of the prophets H5030, and the bones H6106 of the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 from their graves H6913.
“I will certainly H5486 snatch H5486 them away H5486,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
“There H369 will H369 be H369 no H369 grapes H6025 on the vine H1612
And no H369 figs H8384 on the fig H8384 tree H8384,
And the leaf H5929 will wither H5034;
And what I have given H5414 them will pass H5674 away H5674.”'”
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.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559 to this H2088 people H5971: “So H3651 much H3651 they have loved H157 to wander H5128; they have not restrained H2820 their feet H7272. Therefore the LORD H3068 does not accept H7521 them; now H6258 He will remember H2142 their wrongdoing H5771 and call H6485 their sins H2403 to H6485 account H6485.”
But I said H559, “Oh H162, Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068! Behold H2009, the prophets H5030 are telling H559 them, ‘You will not see H7200 a sword H2719, nor H3808 will you have H1961 famine H7458; on H3588 the H3588 contrary H3588, I will give H5414 you lasting H571 peace H7965 in this H2088 place H4725.'”
“She who gave H3205 birth H3205 to seven H7651 sons withers H535 away H535;
[fn]Her breathing H5315 is H5301 labored H5301.
Her sun H8121 has set H935 while it was still H5750 day H3119;
She has been shamed H954 and humiliated H2659.
So I will turn H5414 over H5414 their survivors H7611 to the sword H2719
Before H6440 their enemies H340,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
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.
Therefore H3651, give H5414 their children H1121 over H5414 to famine H7458
And turn H5064 them over H5064 to the [fn]power H3027 of the sword H2719;
And let their wives H802 become H1961 childless H7909 and widowed H490.
Let their men H376 also be slaughtered H2026 to death H4194,
Their young H970 men H970 struck H5221 and H5221 killed H5221 by the sword H2719 in battle H4421.
But the LORD H3068 is with me like a powerful H6184 champion H1368;
Therefore H5921 H3651 my persecutors H7291 will stumble H3782 and not prevail H3201.
They will be put H954 to H954 great H3966 shame H954 because H3588 they have [fn]failed H3808 H7919,
An everlasting H5769 disgrace H3639 that will not be forgotten H7911.
‘And it will be that the nation H1471 or the kingdom H4467 which H834 will not serve H5647 him, Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894, and will not put H5414 its neck H6677 under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, I will punish H6485 that nation H1471 with the sword H2719, with famine H7458, and with plague H1698,' declares H5002 the LORD H3068, ‘until H5704 I have eliminated H8552 [fn]it by his hand H3027.
‘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.
‘Therefore H3651 all H3605 who devour H398 you will be devoured H398;
And all H3605 your adversaries H6862, every H3605 one H3605 of them, will go H1980 into captivity H7628;
And those who plunder H8155 you will become H1961 plunder H4933,
And all H3605 who plunder H962 you I will turn H5414 into plunder H957.
“They will come H935 and shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442 on the height H4791 of Zion H6726,
And they will be radiant H5102 over H413 the [fn]bounty H2898 of the LORD H3068—
Over H5921 the grain H1715, the new H8492 wine H8492, the oil H3323,
And over H5921 the young H1121 of the flock H6629 and the herd H1241.
And their life H5315 will be like a watered H7302 garden H1588,
Then Jeremiah H3414 said H559 to the house H1004 of the Rechabites H7394, “This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478 says H559: ‘Because H3282 H834 you have obeyed H8085 the command H4687 of Jonadab H3082 your father H1, kept H8104 all H3605 his commands H4687, and done H6213 according to all H3605 that he commanded H6680 you,
Now all H3605 the commanders H8269 of the forces H2428 that were in the field H7704, they and their men H376, heard H8085 that the king H4428 of Babylon H894 had appointed H6485 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam H296 over the land H776, and that he had put H6485 him in H6485 charge H6485 of the men H376, women H802, and [fn]children H2945, those of the poorest H1803 of the land H776 who H834 had not been exiled H1540 to Babylon H894.
Then all H3605 the men H376 who were H3045 aware H3045 that their wives H802 were burning H6999 [fn]sacrifices H6999 to other H312 gods H430, along with all H3605 the women H802 who were standing H5975 by, as a large H1419 assembly H6951, [fn]including all H3605 the people H5971 who were living H3427 in Pathros H6624 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714, responded H6030 to Jeremiah H3414, 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.
“But as for you, Jacob H3290 My servant H5650, do not fear H3372,
Nor H408 be dismayed H2865, Israel H3478!
For, see H2009, I am going to save H3467 you from far H7350 away H7350,
And your descendants H2233 from the land H776 of their captivity H7628;
And Jacob H3290 will return H7725 and be H8252 undisturbed H8252
And secure H7599, with no H369 one H369 making him afraid H2729.
Therefore H3651 hear H8085 the plan H6098 of the LORD H3068 which H834 He has planned H3289 against H413 Edom H123, and His purposes H4284 which H834 He has H2803 in H2803 mind H2803 against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Teman H8487: they will certainly H518 H3808 drag H5498 them off H5498, even the little H6810 ones H6810 of the flock H6629; He will certainly H518 H3808 make H8074 their pasture H5116 desolate H8074 because H5921 of them.
“Their camels H1581 will become H1961 plunder H957,
And their many H1995 livestock H4735 for spoils H7998,
And I will scatter H2219 to all H3605 the winds H7307 those who cut H7112 the corners H6285 of their hair;
And I will bring H935 their disaster H343 from every H3605 side H5676,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
“In those H1992 days H3117 and at that time H6256,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068, “the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 will come H935, they and the sons H1121 of Judah H3063 as H3162 well H3162; they will go H1980 along weeping H1058 as they go H1980, and it will be the LORD H3068 their God H430 whom they will seek H1245.
Now the bronze H5178 pillars H5982 which H834 belonged to the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 and the stands H4350 and the bronze H5178 [fn]sea H3220, which H834 were in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, the Chaldeans H3778 smashed H7665 to H7665 pieces H7665 and carried H5375 all H3605 their bronze H5178 to Babylon H894.
Zion H6726 stretches H6566 out H6566 with her hands H3027;
There H369 is H369 no H369 one H369 to comfort H5162 her;
The LORD H3068 has commanded H6680 regarding Jacob H3290
That those around H5439 him become his adversaries H6862;
Jerusalem H3389 has become H1961 a filthy H5079 thing H5079 among H996 them.
“See H7200, LORD H3068, and look H5027!
With whom H4310 have You dealt H5953 this H3541 way H3541?
Should women H802 really H518 eat H398 their [fn]children H6529,
The little H5768 ones H5768 who H2949 were H2949 [fn]born H2949 healthy H2949?
Should priest H3548 and prophet H5030 really H518 be killed H2026
Then He brought H935 me into the inner H6442 courtyard H2691 of the LORD'S H3068 house H1004. And behold H2009, at the entrance H6607 to the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068, between H996 the porch H197 and the altar H4196, were about twenty-five H6242 H2568 men H376 with their backs H268 to the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 while their faces H6440 were toward the east H6924; and they were [fn]prostrating H2331 themselves eastward H6924 toward the sun H8121.
Now the Spirit H7307 lifted H5375 me up H5375 and brought H935 me to the east H6931 gate H8179 of the LORD'S H3068 house H1004 which faced H6437 eastward H6931. And behold H2009, there were twenty-five H6242 H2568 men H376 at the entrance H6607 of the gate H8179, and among H8432 them I saw H7200 Jaazaniah H2970 son H1121 of Azzur H5809 and Pelatiah H6410 son H1121 of Benaiah H1141, leaders H8269 of the people H5971.
Then I did H6213 so H3651, just H834 as H834 I had been commanded H6680. By day H3119 I brought H3318 out H3318 my baggage H3627 like the baggage H3627 of an exile H1473. Then in the evening H6153 I dug H2864 through the wall H7023 with my hands H3027; I went H3318 out H3318 in the dark H5939 and carried H5375 the baggage on my shoulder H3802 in their sight H5869.
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 take H3947 a sprig from the lofty H7311 top H6788 of the cedar H730 and [fn]set H5414 it out; I will break H6998 off H6998 from the topmost H7218 of its young H3127 twigs H3127 a tender H7390 one H7390, and I will plant H8362 it on a high H1364 and lofty H8524 mountain H2022.
“Then I [fn]resolved H559 to pour H8210 out H8210 My wrath H2534 on them, to [fn]use H3615 up H3615 My anger H639 against them in the midst H8432 of the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
“And you, son H1121 of man H120, prophesy H5012 and say H559, ‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559 concerning H413 the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983 and their taunting H2781,' and say H559: ‘A sword H2719, a sword H2719 is drawn H6605, sharpened H4803 for the slaughter H2874, to make it [fn]consume H398, so H4616 that H4616 it may be like lightning H1300—
“Therefore H3651, Oholibah H172, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559: ‘Behold H2009 I am going to incite H5782 your lovers H157 against H5921 you, from whom H834 [fn]you turned H5361 away H5361 in H5361 disgust H5361, and I will bring H935 them against H5921 you from every H5439 side H5439:
‘As for you, son H1121 of man H120, will it not be on the day H3117 when I take H3947 from them their stronghold H4581, the joy H4885 of their splendor H8597, that which H4261 is precious H4261 in their eyes H5869 and their [fn]heart's H5315 longing H4853, their sons H1121 and their daughters H1323,
‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “When I gather H6908 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 from the peoples H5971 among whom H834 they are scattered H6327, and show H6942 Myself holy H6942 among them in the sight H5869 of the nations H1471, then they will live H3427 on their land H127 which H834 I gave H5414 to My servant H5650 Jacob H3290.
“Moreover, I will make H5414 the Nile H2975 canals H2975 dry H2724
And sell H4376 the land H776 into the hands H3027 of evil H7451 men H7451.
And I will make H8074 the land H776 desolate H8074
And [fn]all H4393 that is in H4393 it,
By the hand H3027 of strangers H2114; I the LORD H3068 have spoken H1696.”
“Elam H5867 is there H8033 and all H3605 her hordes H1995 around H5439 her grave H6900; all H3605 of them killed H2491, fallen H5307 by the sword H2719, who H834 went H3381 down H3381 uncircumcised H6189 to the lower H8482 parts H8482 of the earth H776, who H834 inflicted H5414 their terror H2851 on the land H776 of the living H2416, and bore H5375 their disgrace H3639 with those who go H3381 down H3381 to the pit H953.
“There H8033 also are the [fn]chiefs H5257 of the north H6828, all H3605 of them, and all H3605 the Sidonians H6722, who H834 in spite of the terror H2851 resulting from their might H1369, in H954 shame H954 went H3381 down H3381 with the slain H2491. So they lay H7901 down H7901 uncircumcised H6189 with those killed H2491 by the sword H2719 and bore H5375 their disgrace H3639 with those who go H3381 down H3381 to the pit H953.
Then H116 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 the king H4430 was astounded H8429 and stood H6966 up H6966 quickly H927; he said H560 to his counselors H1907, “Was it not three H8532 men H1400 that we threw H7412 bound H3729 into the middle H1459 of the fire H5135?” They replied H6032 to the king H4430, “Absolutely H3330, O king H4430.”
Nebuchadnezzar H5020 responded H6032 and said H560, “Blessed H1289 be the God H426 of Shadrach H7715, Meshach H4336, and Abed-nego H5665, who H1768 has sent H7972 His angel H4398 and rescued H7804 His servants H5649 who H1768 put H7365 their trust H7365 in Him, [fn]violating H8133 the king's H4430 command H4406, and surrendered H3052 their bodies H1655 rather H1768 H3809 than H3809 serve H6399 or worship H5457 any H3606 god H426 except H3861 their own God H426.
“Righteousness H6666 belongs to You, Lord H136, but to us [fn]open H6440 shame H1322, as it is this H2088 day H3117—to the men H376 of Judah H3063, the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, and all H3605 Israel H3478, those who are nearby H7138 and those who are far H7350 away in all H3605 the countries H776 to which H834 You have driven H5080 them, because of their unfaithful H4603 H4604 deeds H4604 which H834 they have committed H4603 against You.
“For their mother H517 has committed H2181 prostitution H2181;
She who conceived H2029 them has acted H954 shamefully H954.
For she said H559, ‘I will go H1980 after H310 my lovers H157,
Who give H5414 me my bread H3899 and my water H4325,
My wool H6785 and my flax H6593, my oil H8081 and my drink H8250.'
They will not pour H5258 out H5258 drink H5258 offerings H5258 of wine H3196 to the LORD H3068,
Nor will [fn]their sacrifices H2077 please H6149 Him.
Their bread will be to them like [fn]mourners' H205 bread H3899;
All H3605 who eat H398 it will be defiled H2930,
Because H3588 their bread H3899 will be for [fn]themselves H5315 alone;
I found H4672 Israel H3478 like grapes H6025 in the wilderness H4057;
I saw H7200 your forefathers H1 as the earliest H1063 fruit H1063 on the fig H8384 tree H8384 in its first H7225 season.
But they came H935 to Baal-peor H1187 and devoted H5144 themselves to [fn]shame H1322,
And they became H1961 as detestable H8251 as that which H159 they loved H157.
And now H6258 they sin H2398 more H3254 and more H3254,
And make H6213 for themselves cast H4541 metal H4541 images H4541,
Idols H6091 [fn]skillfully H8394 made from their silver H3701,
All H3605 of them the work H4639 of craftsmen H2796.
They say H559 of them, “Let the [fn]people H120 who sacrifice H2076 kiss H5401 the calves H5695!”
Let the priests H3548, the LORD'S H3068 ministers H8334,
Weep H1058 between H996 the porch H197 and the altar H4196,
And let them say H559, “[fn]Spare H2347 Your people H5971, LORD H3068,
And do not make H5414 Your inheritance H5159 a disgrace H2781,
With the nations H1471 jeering H4912 at them.
The LORD H3068 [fn]will answer H6030 and say H559 to His people H5971,
“Behold H2009, I am going to send H7971 you grain H1715, new H8492 wine H8492, and oil H3323,
And you will be H7646 satisfied H7646 in full with [fn]them;
And I will never H3808 again H5750 make H5414 you a disgrace H2781 among the nations H1471.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“For three H7969 offenses H6588 of the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983, and for four H702,
I will not revoke H7725 its punishment,
Because H5921 they ripped H1234 open H1234 the pregnant H2030 women H2030 of Gilead H1568
In H4616 order H4616 to H4616 enlarge H7337 their borders H1366.
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559:
“For three H7969 offenses H6588 of Judah H3063, and for four H702,
I will not revoke H7725 its punishment,
Because H5921 they rejected H3988 the Law H8451 of the LORD H3068
And have not kept H8104 His statutes H2706;
Therefore H3651 because H3282 you impose H1318 heavy H1318 [fn]rent H1318 on the poor H1800
And take H3947 a tribute H4864 of grain H1250 from them,
Though you have built H1129 houses H1004 of cut H1496 stone H1496,
Yet you will not live H3427 in them;
You have planted H5193 beautiful H2531 vineyards H3754, yet you will not drink H8354 their wine H3196.
Go H5674 over H5674 to Calneh H3641 and look H7200,
And go H1980 from there H8033 to Hamath H2574 the great H7227,
Then go H3381 down H3381 to Gath H1661 of the Philistines H6430.
Are [fn]they better H2896 than H4480 these H428 kingdoms H4467,
Or H518 is their territory H1366 greater H7227 than H4480 yours?
I saw H7200 the Lord H136 standing H5324 beside H5921 the altar H4196, and He said H559,
“Strike H5221 the pillar H3730 capitals H3730 so that the thresholds H5592 will shake H7493,
And break H1214 them on the heads H7218 of them all H3605!
Then I will put H2026 to H2026 death H2026 the rest H319 of them with the sword H2719;
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559 concerning H5921 the prophets H5030 who lead H8582 my people H5971 astray H8582:
When they have something to bite H5391 with their teeth H8127,
They cry H7121 out H7121, “Peace H7965!”
But against H5921 him who H834 puts H5414 nothing H3808 in their mouths H6310
And He will judge H8199 between H996 many H7227 peoples H5971
And render H3198 decisions H3198 for mighty H6099, [fn]distant H7350 nations H1471.
Then they will beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855,
And their spears H2595 into pruning H4211 hooks H4211;
Nation H1471 will not lift H5375 a sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471,
And never H3808 again H5750 will they [fn]train H3925 for war H4421.
“Arise H6965 and thresh H1758, daughter H1323 of Zion H6726,
For I will make H7760 your horn H7161 iron H1270,
And I will make H7760 your hoofs H6541 bronze H5154,
So that you may pulverize H1854 many H7227 peoples H5971,
And dedicate H2763 to the LORD H3068 their unjust H1215 profit H1215,
And their wealth H2428 to the Lord H136 of all H3605 the earth H776.
“The statutes H2708 of Omri H6018
And every H3605 work H4639 of the house H1004 of Ahab H256 are maintained H8104,
And you walk H1980 by their plans H4156.
Therefore H4616 I will give H5414 you up H5414 for destruction H8047,
And [fn]your inhabitants H3427 for [fn]derision H8322,
And you will suffer H5375 the taunting H2781 of My people H5971.”
Neither H1571 H3808 their silver H3701 nor H1571 their gold H2091
Will be H3201 able H3201 to save H5337 them
On the day H3117 of the LORD'S H3068 anger H5678;
And all H3605 the earth H776 will be devoured H398
By the fire H784 of His jealousy H7068,
For He will make H6213 a complete H3617 end H3617,
“I have eliminated H3772 nations H1471;
Their corner H6438 towers H6438 are H8074 deserted H8074.
I have laid H2717 waste H2717 their streets H2351,
With no H1097 one H1097 passing H5674 by H5674;
Their cities H5892 have been laid H6658 waste H6658,
Without H4480 H1097 a person H376, without H4480 H369 an inhabitant H3427.
“I said H559, ‘You will certainly H389 revere H3372 Me,
You will accept H3947 discipline H4148.'
So her dwelling H4583 will not be eliminated H3772
In accordance with everything H3605 that I have stipulated H6485 for her.
Instead, they were H7925 eager H7925 to corrupt H7843 all H3605 their deeds H5949.
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 I will strengthen H1396 the house H1004 of Judah H3063,
And I will save H3467 the house H1004 of Joseph H3130,
And I will [fn]bring H7725 them back H7725,
Because H3588 I have had H7355 compassion H7355 on H7355 them;
And they will be as though H834 I had not rejected H2186 them,
For I am the LORD H3068 their God H430 and I will answer H6030 them.
Now this H2088 will be the plague H4046 with which H834 the LORD H3068 will strike H5062 all H3605 the peoples H5971 who H834 have gone H6633 to war H6633 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389; their flesh H1320 will rot H4743 while they stand H5975 on their feet H7272, and their eyes H5869 will rot H4743 in their sockets H2356, and their tongue H3956 will rot H4743 in their mouth H6310.
“[fn]For behold H2009, the day H3117 is coming H935, burning H1197 like a furnace H8574; and all H3605 the arrogant H2086 and every H3605 evildoer H6213 H7564 will be chaff H7179; and the day H3117 that is coming H935 will set H3857 them ablaze H3857,” says H559 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635, “so H834 that H834 it will leave H5800 them neither H3808 root H8328 nor H3808 branches H6057.
‘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 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.
Then David H1732 came H935 to his house H1004 in Jerusalem H3389, and the king H4428 took H3947 the ten H6235 women H802, the concubines H6370 whom H834 he had left H5117 behind H5117 to take H8104 care H8104 of the house H1004, and put H5414 them in custody H1004 H4931 and provided H3557 them with H3557 food H3557, but did not [fn]have H935 relations H935 with H935 them. So they were locked H6887 up H6887 until H5704 the day H3117 of their death H4191, living H2424 as widows H491.
And He will judge H8199 between H996 the nations H1471,
And will mediate H3198 for many H7227 peoples H5971;
And they will beat H3807 their swords H2719 into plowshares H855, and their spears H2595 into pruning H4211 knives H4211.
Nation H1471 will not lift H5375 up H5375 a sword H2719 against H413 nation H1471,
And never H3808 again H5750 will they learn H3925 war H4421.
“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.
Now the Chaldeans H3778 smashed H7665 to H7665 pieces H7665 the bronze H5178 pillars H5982 which H834 were in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, and the stands H4350 and the bronze H5178 [fn]Sea H3220 which H834 were in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, and carried H5375 the [fn]bronze H5178 to Babylon H894.
