Lexicon :: Strong's H5739 - ʿēḏer

“Why ^H4100 did you sit ^H3427 among ^H996 the [fn]sheepfolds ^H4942,

To hear ^H8085 the piping ^H8292 for the flocks ^H5739?

Among the divisions ^H6390 of Reuben ^H7205

There were great ^H1419 searchings ^H2714 of heart ^H3820.

“People remove ^H5472 landmarks ^H1367;

They seize ^H1497 and [fn]devour ^H7462 flocks ^H5739.

But He led ^H5265 His own people ^H5971 out ^H5265 like sheep ^H6629,

And guided ^H5090 them in the wilderness ^H4057 like a flock ^H5739;

Know ^H3045 well ^H3045 the [fn]condition ^H6440 of your flocks ^H6629,

And pay ^H7896 attention ^H3820 to your herds ^H5739;

“Tell ^H5046 me, you whom ^H7945 my soul ^H5315 loves ^H157,

Where ^H351 do you pasture ^H7462 your flock,

Where ^H351 do you have it lie ^H7257 down ^H7257 at noon ^H6672?

For why ^H4100 should I be like one who [fn]veils ^H5844 herself

Beside ^H5921 the flocks ^H5739 of your companions ^H2270?”

“[fn]How ^H2009 beautiful ^H3303 you are, my darling ^H7474,

[fn]How ^H2009 beautiful ^H3303 you are!

Your eyes ^H5869 are like doves ^H3123 behind ^H4480 H1157 your veil ^H6777;

Your hair ^H8181 is like a flock ^H5739 of goats ^H5795

That have descended ^H1570 from Mount ^H2022 Gilead ^H1568.

“Turn ^H5437 your eyes ^H5869 away ^H5437 from me,

For they have confused ^H7292 me;

Your hair ^H8181 is like a flock ^H5739 of goats ^H5795

That have descended ^H1570 from Gilead ^H1568.

“The cities ^H5892 [fn]of Aroer ^H6177 are abandoned ^H5800;

They will be for herds ^H5739 [fn]to lie ^H7257 down ^H7257 in,

And there ^H369 will ^H369 be ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 to frighten ^H2729 them.

For ^H3588 the palace ^H759 has been neglected ^H5203, the [fn]populated ^H1995 city ^H5892 abandoned ^H5800.

[fn]Hill ^H6076 and watch-tower ^H975 have become ^H1961 caves ^H4631 forever ^H5704 H5769,

A delight ^H4885 for wild ^H6501 donkeys ^H6501, a pasture ^H4829 for flocks ^H5739,

Like a shepherd ^H7462 He will tend ^H7462 His flock ^H5739,

In His arm ^H2220 He will gather ^H6908 the lambs ^H2924

And carry ^H5375 them in the fold ^H2436 of ^H2436 His robe ^H2436;

He will gently lead ^H5095 the nursing ^H5763 ewes.

“Shepherds ^H7462 and their flocks ^H5739 will come ^H935 to her,

They will pitch ^H8628 their tents ^H168 [fn]around ^H5439 her,

They will pasture ^H7462, each ^H376 in his [fn]place ^H3027.

But if ^H518 you do not listen ^H8085 to it,

My soul ^H5315 will weep ^H1058 in secret ^H4565 for such pride ^H1466;

And my eyes ^H5869 will shed ^H1830

And stream ^H3381 down ^H3381 tears ^H1832,

Because ^H3588 the flock ^H5739 of the LORD ^H3068 has been taken ^H7617 captive ^H7617.

Hear ^H8085 the word ^H1697 of the LORD ^H3068, you nations ^H1471,

And declare ^H5046 it in the coastlands ^H339 far ^H4801 away ^H4801,

And say ^H559, “He who scattered ^H2219 Israel ^H3478 will gather ^H6908 him,

And He will keep ^H8104 him as a shepherd ^H7462 keeps his flock ^H5739.”

And with you I shatter ^H5310 the shepherd ^H7462 and his flock ^H5739,

And with you I shatter ^H5310 the farmer ^H406 and his team ^H6776,

And with you I shatter ^H5310 governors ^H6346 and officials ^H5461.

How ^H4100 the animals ^H929 have groaned ^H584!

The herds ^H5739 of cattle ^H1241 have wandered ^H943 aimlessly ^H943

Because ^H3588 there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 pasture ^H4829 for them;

Even ^H1571 the flocks ^H5739 of sheep ^H6629 have [fn]suffered ^H816.

“I will certainly ^H622 assemble ^H622 all ^H3605 of you, Jacob ^H3290,

I will certainly ^H6908 gather ^H6908 the remnant ^H7611 of Israel ^H3478.

I will put ^H7760 them together ^H3162 like sheep ^H6629 in the fold ^H1223;

Like a flock ^H5739 in the midst ^H8432 of its pasture ^H1699

They will be ^H1993 noisy ^H1993 with people ^H120.

“As for you, [fn]tower ^H4026 of the flock ^H5739,

[fn]Hill ^H6076 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726,

To you it will come ^H857—

Yes, the former ^H7223 dominion ^H4475 will come ^H935,

The kingdom ^H4467 of the daughter ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389.

The remnant ^H7611 of Jacob ^H3290

Will be among the nations ^H1471,

Among ^H7130 many ^H7227 peoples ^H5971

Like a lion ^H738 among the animals ^H929 of the forest ^H3293,

Like a young ^H3715 lion ^H3715 among flocks ^H5739 of sheep ^H6629,

Which ^H834, if ^H518 he passes ^H5674 through ^H5674,

Tramples ^H7429 and tears ^H2963,

And there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 who ^H5337 can ^H5337 rescue ^H5337.

Flocks ^H5739 will lie ^H7257 down ^H7257 in her midst ^H8432,

[fn]All ^H3605 animals ^H2416 that range in herds ^H1471;

Both ^H1571 the [fn]pelican ^H6893 and the hedgehog ^H7090

Will spend ^H3885 their nights ^H3885 in [fn]the tops ^H3730 of ^H3730 her pillars ^H3730;

[fn]Birds ^H6963 will sing ^H7891 in the window ^H2474,

Devastation ^H2721 will be on the threshold ^H5592;

For He has uncovered ^H6168 the cedar ^H731 work ^H731.

“My anger ^H639 is kindled ^H2734 against ^H5921 the shepherds ^H7462,

And I will punish ^H6485 the [fn]male ^H6260 goats ^H6260;

For the LORD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635 has visited ^H6485 His flock ^H5739, the house ^H1004 of Judah ^H3063,

And will make ^H7760 them like His majestic ^H1935 horse ^H5483 in battle ^H4421.
