Now it happened about three ^H7969 months ^H2320 later ^H4480 that it was told ^H5046 to Judah ^H3063 saying ^H559, “[fn]Your daughter-in-law ^H3618 Tamar ^H8559 has played ^H2181 the ^H2181 harlot ^H2181, and behold ^H2009, she is also ^H1571 with child ^H2030 by harlotry ^H2183.” Then Judah ^H3063 said ^H559, “Bring ^H3318 her out ^H3318 and let her be burned ^H8313!”

‘Do not [fn]profane ^H2455 your daughter ^H1323 by making ^H2181 her a ^H2181 harlot ^H2181, so that the land ^H776 will not fall ^H2181 to harlotry ^H2181 and the land ^H776 become ^H4390 full ^H4390 of lewdness ^H2154.

And Israel ^H3478 remained ^H3427 at Shittim ^H7851, and the people ^H5971 began ^H2490 to play ^H2181 the ^H2181 harlot ^H2181 with the daughters ^H1323 of Moab ^H4124.

Then Joshua ^H3091 the son ^H1121 of Nun ^H5126 sent ^H7971 two ^H8147 men ^H376 as spies ^H7270 secretly ^H2791 from Shittim ^H7851, saying ^H559, “Go ^H1980, see ^H7200 the land ^H776, especially ^H853 Jericho ^H3405.” So they went ^H1980 and came ^H935 into the house ^H1004 of a harlot ^H802 H2181 whose name ^H8034 was Rahab ^H7343 and [fn]lodged ^H7901 there ^H8033.

Now to the two ^H8147 men ^H376 who had spied ^H7270 out ^H7270 the land ^H776, Joshua ^H3091 said ^H559, “Go ^H935 into the harlot’s ^H802 H2181 house ^H1004 and bring ^H3318 the woman ^H802 and all ^H3605 she has out ^H3318 of there ^H8033, as you have sworn ^H7650 to her.”

Then it happened ^H1961, as soon ^H834 as Gideon ^H1439 was dead ^H4191, that the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 turned ^H7725 back ^H7725 and played ^H2181 the ^H2181 harlot ^H2181 with the Baals ^H1168 and made ^H7760 Baal-berith ^H1170 their god ^H430.

Now Jephthah ^H3316 the Gileadite ^H1569 was a mighty ^H1368 man ^H1368 of valor ^H2428, but he was the son ^H1121 of a harlot ^H802 H2181. And Gilead ^H1568 [fn]became the father ^H3205 of Jephthah ^H3316.

Then Samson ^H8123 went ^H1980 to Gaza ^H5804 and saw ^H7200 a harlot ^H802 H2181 there ^H8033 and went ^H935 in ^H935 to her.

But they acted ^H4603 unfaithfully ^H4603 against the God ^H430 of their fathers ^H1 and played ^H2181 the ^H2181 harlot ^H2181 after ^H310 the gods ^H430 of the peoples ^H5971 of the land ^H776, whom ^H834 God ^H430 had destroyed ^H8045 before ^H4480 H6440 them.

For, behold ^H2009, those who are far ^H7369 from You will perish ^H6;

You have [fn]destroyed ^H6789 everyone ^H3605 who [fn]is unfaithful ^H2181 to You.

Thus they became ^H2930 unclean ^H2930 in their works ^H4639,

And played ^H2181 the ^H2181 harlot ^H2181 in their actions ^H4611.

For on account ^H1157 of [fn]a harlot ^H2181 one is reduced to a loaf ^H3603 of bread ^H3899,

And [fn]an adulteress ^H802 H376 hunts ^H6679 for the precious ^H3368 [fn]life ^H5315.

And behold ^H2009, a woman ^H802 comes to meet ^H7122 him,

Dressed ^H7897 as a harlot ^H2181 and [fn]cunning ^H5341 of heart ^H3820.

For a harlot ^H2181 is a deep ^H6013 pit ^H7745

And [fn]a foreign ^H5237 woman ^H5237 is a narrow ^H6862 well ^H875.

A man ^H376 who loves ^H157 wisdom ^H2451 makes ^H8055 his father ^H1 glad ^H8055,

But he who befriends ^H7462 harlots ^H2181 destroys ^H6 his wealth ^H1952.

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

She who was full ^H4392 of justice ^H4941!

Righteousness ^H6664 once lodged ^H3885 in her,

But now ^H6258 murderers ^H7523.

Now it will be in that day ^H3117, that Tyre ^H6865 will be forgotten ^H7911 for seventy ^H7657 years ^H8141 like the days ^H3117 of one ^H259 king ^H4428. At the end ^H7093 of seventy ^H7657 years ^H8141 it will happen ^H1961 to Tyre ^H6865 as in the song ^H7892 of the harlot ^H2181:

“But draw ^H7126 near ^H2008, you sons ^H1121 of a soothsayer ^H6049,

Seed ^H2233 of an adulterer ^H5003 and [fn]a prostitute ^H2181.

“For long ^H5769 ago ^H5769 [fn]I broke ^H7665 your yoke ^H5923

And tore ^H5423 off ^H5423 your bonds ^H4147;

But you said ^H559, ‘I will not serve ^H5647!’

For on every ^H3605 high ^H1364 hill ^H1389

And under ^H8478 every ^H3605 green ^H7488 tree ^H6086

You have lain ^H6808 down ^H6808 as a harlot ^H2181.

God [fn]says ^H559, “If ^H2005 a husband ^H376 divorces ^H7971 his wife ^H802

And she goes ^H1980 from him

And belongs ^H1961 to another ^H312 man ^H376,

Will he still ^H5750 return ^H7725 to her?

Will not that land ^H776 be completely ^H2610 [fn]polluted ^H2610?

But you are a harlot ^H2181 with many ^H7227 [fn]lovers ^H7453;

Yet you turn ^H7725 to Me,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“Therefore the showers ^H7241 have been withheld ^H4513,

And the [fn]late ^H4456 rain ^H4456 has not ^H3808 [fn]come ^H1961.

Yet you had ^H1961 a harlot’s ^H802 H2181 forehead ^H4696;

You refused ^H3985 to feel ^H3637 dishonor ^H3637.

Then Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559 to me in the days ^H3117 of Josiah ^H2977 the king ^H4428, “Have you seen ^H7200 what ^H834 faithless ^H4878 Israel ^H3478 did ^H6213? She went ^H1980 up on every ^H3605 high ^H1364 hill ^H2022 and under ^H8478 every ^H3605 green ^H7488 tree ^H6086, and she was a harlot ^H2181 there ^H8033.

“Why ^H335 should I pardon ^H5545 you?

Your sons ^H1121 have forsaken ^H5800 Me

And sworn ^H7650 by those who are not gods ^H430.

I had satisfied ^H7646 them to ^H7646 the ^H7646 full ^H7646,

Then they committed ^H5003 adultery ^H5003

And trooped ^H1413 to the harlot’s ^H2181 house ^H1004.

“But you trusted ^H982 in your beauty ^H3308 and played ^H2181 the ^H2181 harlot ^H2181 because ^H5921 of your name ^H8034, and you poured ^H8210 out ^H8210 your harlotries ^H8457 on every ^H3605 passer-by ^H5674 [fn]who might be willing.
