Then they heard H8085 the sound H6963 of Yahweh H3068 God H430 walking H1980 in the garden H1588 in the [fn]cool H7307 of the day H3117, and the man H120 and his wife H802 hid H2244 themselves from the presence H6440 of Yahweh H3068 God H430 in the midst H8432 of the trees H6086 of the garden H1588.
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 Yahweh H3068, and they camped H2583 at Rephidim H7508, and there H369 was H369 no H369 water H4325 for the people H5971 to drink H8354.
Then Moses H4872 entreated H2470 [fn]the favor H2470 H6440 of Yahweh H3068 his God H430 and said H559, “O Yahweh H3068, why H4100 does Your anger H639 burn H2734 against Your people H5971 whom H834 You have brought H3318 out H3318 of the land H776 of Egypt H4714 with great H1419 power H3581 and with a strong H2389 hand H3027?
Then [fn]God said H559, “Behold H2009, I am going to cut H3772 a covenant H1285. Before H5048 all H3605 your people H5971 I will do H6213 wondrous H6381 deeds H6381 which H834 have not been created H1254 in all H3605 the earth H776 nor H3808 among any H3605 of the nations H1471; and all H3605 the people H5971 [fn]among H7130 whom H834 you live will see H7200 the working H4639 of Yahweh H3068, for it is a fearful H3372 thing H3372 that I am going to do H6213 with you.
‘Now if H518 the whole H3605 congregation H5712 of Israel H3478 commits H7686 error H7686, and the matter H1697 is hidden H5956 from the sight H5869 of the assembly H6951, and they commit H6213 any H259 of the [fn]things H4687 which H834 Yahweh H3068 has commanded H4687 not to be done H6213, and they become H816 guilty H816;
Then Moses H4872 spoke H1696 to Aaron H175 and to his remaining H3498 sons H1121, Eleazar H499 and Ithamar H385, “Take H3947 the remaining H3498 grain offering H4503 from the offerings H801 to Yahweh H3068 by H801 fire H801 and eat H398 it unleavened 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 he shall sprinkle H5137 it on the mercy H3727 seat H3727 and in front H6440 of the mercy H3727 seat H3727.
Now when Moses H4872 went H935 into the tent H168 of meeting H4150 to speak H1696 with Him, he heard H8085 the voice H6963 speaking H1696 to him from above H5921 the [fn]mercy H3727 seat H3727 that was on the ark H727 of the testimony H5715, from between H996 the two H8147 cherubim H3742, so He spoke H1696 to him.
Now the people H5971 became H1961 like those who complain H596 of calamity H7451 in the ears H241 of Yahweh H3068. And Yahweh H3068 heard H8085 it and His anger H639 was kindled H2734, and the fire H784 of Yahweh H3068 burned H1197 among them and consumed H398 some of the outskirts H7097 of the camp H4264.
Now there went H5265 forth H5265 a wind H7307 from Yahweh H3068, and it brought H1468 quail H7958 from the sea H3220, and let them fall H5203 beside H5921 the camp H4264, about a day's H3117 journey H1870 on this H3541 side H3541 and a day's H3117 journey H1870 on the other H3541 side H3541, all H5439 around H5439 the camp H4264 and [fn]about two [fn]cubits H520 over the surface H6440 of the ground H776.
‘But the man H376 who H834 is H2930 unclean H2930 and does not purify H2398 himself from uncleanness H2398, that person H5315 shall be cut H3772 off H3772 from the midst H8432 of the assembly H6951 because H3588 he has [fn]made H2930 the sanctuary H4720 of Yahweh H3068 unclean H2930; the water H4325 for impurity H5079 has not been [fn]splashed H2236 on him; he is unclean H2931.
And the sons H1121 of Eliab H446:
Nemuel H5241 and Dathan H1885 and Abiram H48. These H1931 are the Dathan H1885 and Abiram H48 who H7148 were H7148 called H7148 upon by the congregation H5712, who H834 contended H5327 against H5921 Moses H4872 and against H5921 Aaron H175 in the congregation H5712 of Korah H7141, when they contended H5327 against H5921 Yahweh H3068,
Then Aaron H175 the priest H3548 went H5927 up H5927 to Mount H2022 Hor H2023 at the [fn]command H6310 of Yahweh H3068, and he died H4191 there H8033 in the fortieth H705 year H8141 after the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 had come H3318 from the land H776 of Egypt H4714, on the first H259 day in the fifth H2549 month H2320.
“Then you said H559 to me, ‘We have sinned H2398 against Yahweh H3068; we will indeed go H5927 up H5927 and fight H3898, just H3605 H834 as Yahweh H3068 our God H430 commanded H6680 us.' And every H376 man H376 of you girded H2296 on his weapons H3627 of war H4421 and regarded H1951 it as H1951 easy H1951 to go H5927 up H5927 into the hill H2022 country H2022.
“When H3588 you [fn]become H3205 the father H3205 of children H1121 and children's H1121 children H1121 and remain H3462 long H3462 in the land H776 and act H7843 corruptly H7843 and make H6213 [fn]a graven H6459 image H6459 in the form H8544 of anything H3605 and do H6213 that which H7451 is H7451 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430 so as to provoke H3707 Him to H3707 anger H3707,
“However H7534, you may sacrifice H2076 and eat H398 meat H1320 within any H3605 of your gates H8179, [fn]whatever H3605 you desire H185, according to the blessing H1293 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430 which H834 He has given H5414 you; the unclean H2931 and the clean H2889 may eat H398 of it, as of the gazelle H6643 and the deer H354.
“Be H8104 careful H8104 to listen H8085 to all H3605 these H428 words H1697 which H834 I command H6680 you, so H4616 that it may be well H3190 with you and your sons H1121 after H310 you forever H5704 H5769, for you will be doing H6213 what H2896 is H2896 good H2896 and right H3477 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430.
“Three H7969 times H6471 in a year H8141 all H3605 your males H2138 shall appear H7200 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 your God H430 in the place H4725 which H834 He chooses H977, at the Feast H2282 of Unleavened H4682 Bread H4682 and at the Feast H2282 of Weeks H7620 and at the Feast H2282 of Booths H5521, and they shall not appear H7200 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 empty-handed H7387.
“If H3588 there is found H4672 in your midst H7130, in any H259 of your gates H8179 of the towns which H834 Yahweh H3068 your God H430 is giving H5414 you, a man H376 or H176 a woman H802 who H834 does H6213 what H7451 is H7451 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430, by trespassing H5674 against His covenant H1285,
“Now it will be, if H518 you diligently H8085 listen H8085 to the voice H6963 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430, being H8104 careful H8104 to do H6213 all H3605 His commandments H4687 which H834 I am commanding H6680 you today H3117, Yahweh H3068 your God H430 will set H5414 you high H5945 above H5921 all H3605 the nations H1471 of the earth H776.
“But it will be H1961, if H518 you do not listen H8085 to the voice H6963 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430, to keep H8104 and to do H6213 all H3605 His commandments H4687 and His statutes H2708 with which H834 I am commanding H6680 you today H3117, that all H3605 these H428 curses H7045 will come H935 upon you and overtake H5381 you:
“So all H3605 these H428 curses H7045 shall come H935 on you and pursue H7291 you and overtake H5381 you until H5704 you are destroyed H8045, because H3588 you would not listen H8085 to the voice H6963 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430 to keep H8104 His commandments H4687 and His statutes H2708 which H834 He commanded H6680 you.
“Blessed H835 are you, O Israel H3478;
Who H4310 is like H3644 you, a people H5971 saved H3467 by Yahweh H3068,
Who is the shield H4043 of your help H5828
And the sword H2719 of your majesty H1346!
So your enemies H340 will cower H3584 before you,
And you will tread H1869 upon their high H1116 places H1116.”
Then Joshua H3091 made them swear H7650 an oath at that time H6256, saying H559, “Cursed H779 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 is the man H376 who H834 rises H6965 up H6965 and builds H1129 this H2088 city H5892 Jericho H3405; with the loss of his firstborn H1060 he shall lay H3245 its foundation H3245, and with the loss of his youngest H6810 son H6810 he shall set H5324 up its gates H1817.”
Then the men H376 arose H6965 and went H1980, and Joshua H3091 commanded H6680 those who went H1980 to write H3789 the description of the land H776, saying H559, “Go H1980 and walk H1980 through the land H776 and write H3789 a description of it, and return H7725 to me; then I will cast H7993 lots H1486 for you here H6311 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 in Shiloh H7887.”
These H428 are the inheritances H5159 which H834 Eleazar H499 the priest H3548 and Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Nun H5126 and the heads H7218 of the [fn]households H1 of the tribes H4294 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 distributed H5157 by lot H1486 in Shiloh H7887 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 at the doorway H6607 of the tent H168 of meeting H4150. So they finished H3615 dividing H2505 the land H776.
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh 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 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 what H7451 was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of Yahweh H3068. So Yahweh H3068 strengthened H2388 Eglon H5700 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 against H5921 Israel H3478 because H5921 H3588 they had done H6213 what H7451 was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of Yahweh H3068.
“At the sound H6963 of those who divide H2686 flocks among H996 the watering H4857 places H4857,
There H8033 they shall [fn]commemorate H8567 the righteous H6666 deeds H6666 of Yahweh H3068,
The righteous H6666 deeds H6666 for His [fn]peasantry H6520 in Israel H3478.
Then H227 the people H5971 of Yahweh H3068 went H3381 down H3381 to the gates H8179.
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 came H935 and sat H3427 under H8478 the [fn]oak H424 that was in Ophrah H6084, which H834 belonged to Joash H3060 the Abiezrite H33 as his son H1121 Gideon H1439 was beating H2251 out H2251 wheat H2406 in the wine H1660 press H1660 in order to [fn]preserve H5127 it from the Midianites H4080.
Then the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 what H7451 was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of Yahweh H3068 and served H5647 the Baals H1168 and the Ashtaroth H6252, the gods H430 of Aram H758, the gods H430 of Sidon H6721, the gods H430 of Moab H4124, the gods H430 of the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983, and the gods H430 of the Philistines H6430; thus they forsook H5800 Yahweh H3068 and did not serve H5647 Him.
Then the Spirit H7307 of Yahweh H3068 [fn]came H6743 upon him mightily H6743, and he went H3381 down H3381 to Ashkelon H831 and struck H5221 down H5221 thirty H7970 of them and took H3947 their spoil H2488 and gave H5414 the changes H2487 of clothes 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 he came H935 to Lehi H3896, the Philistines H6430 shouted H7321 as they met H7122 him. And the Spirit H7307 of Yahweh H3068 [fn]came H6743 upon him mightily H6743 so that the ropes H5688 that were on his arms H2220 were as flax H6593 that is burned H1197 with fire H784, and his bonds H612 [fn]dropped H4549 from his hands H3027.
Then He struck H5221 down H5221 some of the men H376 of Beth-shemesh H1053 because H3588 they had looked H7200 into the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068. He struck H5221 down H5221 of all the people H5971, 50,070 H7657 H2572 H505 men H376, and the people H5971 mourned H56 because H3588 Yahweh H3068 had struck H5221 the people H5971 with a great H1419 slaughter H4347.
And the men H376 of Kiriath-jearim H7157 came H935 and brought H5927 the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068 up H5927 and brought H935 it into the house H1004 of Abinadab H41 on the hill H1389 and set H6942 apart H6942 Eleazar H499 his son H1121 as H6942 holy H6942 in order to keep H8104 the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068.
Then it was told H5046 to King H4428 David H1732, saying H559, “Yahweh H3068 has blessed H1288 the house H1004 of Obed-edom H5654 and all H3605 that belongs to him, on account H5668 of the ark H727 of God H430.” So David H1732 went H1980 and brought H5927 up H5927 the ark H727 of God H430 from the house H1004 of Obed-edom H5654 into the city H5892 of David H1732 with gladness H8057.
Then it happened H1961 as the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068 came H935 into the city H5892 of David H1732, that Michal H4324 the daughter H1323 of Saul H7586 looked H8259 out H8259 of the window H2474 and saw H7200 King H4428 David H1732 leaping H6339 and dancing H3769 before H6440 Yahweh H3068; and she despised H959 him in her heart H3820.
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 H3332 down H3332 the ark H727 of God H430, and Abiathar H54 came H5927 up H5927 until H5704 all H3605 the people H5971 had finished H8552 passing H5674 from the city H5892.
And there was a famine H7458 in the days H3117 of David H1732 for three H7969 years H8141, year H8141 after H310 year H8141; and David H1732 sought H1245 the presence H6440 of Yahweh H3068. And Yahweh H3068 said H559, “It is for Saul H7586 and his bloody H1818 house H1004, because H5921 H834 he put H4191 the Gibeonites H1393 to H4191 death H4191.”
Then to Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 the king H4428 said H559, “Go H1980 to Anathoth H6068 to your own field H7704, for you [fn]deserve H376 to die H4194; but I will not put H4191 you to H4191 death H4191 at this H2088 time H3117, because H3588 you carried H5375 the ark H727 of Lord H136 Yahweh H3068 before H6440 my father H1 David H1732, and because H3588 you were afflicted H6031 in everything H3605 with which H834 my father H1 was afflicted H6031.”
Then Solomon H8010 awoke H3364, and behold H2009, it was a dream H2472. And he came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 and stood H5975 before H6440 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the Lord H136, and offered H5927 burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and made H6213 peace H8002 offerings H8002, and made H6213 a feast H4960 for all H3605 his servants H5650.
Now it happened H1961 in the four H702 hundred H3967 and eightieth H8084 year H8141 after the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 came H3318 out H3318 of the land H776 of Egypt H4714, in the fourth H7243 year H8141 of Solomon's H8010 reign H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478, in the month H2320 of Ziv H2099 which H1931 is the second H8145 month H2320, that he [fn]began to build H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Thus all H3605 the work H4399 that King H4428 Solomon H8010 did H6213 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 was finished H7999. And Solomon H8010 brought H935 in H935 the things H6944 set H6944 apart H6944 as H6944 holy H6944 by his father H1 David H1732, the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 and the utensils H3627, and he put H5414 them in the treasuries H214 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Then H227 Solomon H8010 assembled H6950 the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 and all H3605 the heads H7218 of the tribes H4294, the leaders H5387 of the fathers' H1 households of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, to King H4428 Solomon H8010 in Jerusalem H3389, to bring H5927 up H5927 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of Yahweh H3068 from the city H5892 of David H1732, which H1931 is Zion H6726.
“When H3588 Your people H5971 go H3318 out H3318 to battle H4421 against H5921 [fn]their enemy H340, by whatever H834 way H1870 You shall send H7971 them, and they pray H6419 to Yahweh H3068 [fn]toward H1870 the city H5892 which H834 You have chosen H977 and the house H1004 which H834 I have built H1129 for Your name H8034,
Now it happened that when Solomon H8010 had [fn]finished H3615 praying H6419 this H2088 entire H3605 prayer H8605 and supplication H8467 to Yahweh H3068, he arose H6965 from before H6440 the altar H4196 of Yahweh H3068, from kneeling H3766 on his knees H1290 with his [fn]hands H3709 spread H6566 toward heaven H8064.
So Solomon H8010 celebrated H6213 the feast H2282 at that time H6256, and all H3605 Israel H3478 with him, a great H1419 assembly H6951 from [fn]Lebo-hamath H2574 to the brook H5158 of Egypt H4714, before H6440 Yahweh H3068 our God H430, for seven H7651 days H3117 and seven H7651 more days H3117, even fourteen H702 H6240 days H3117.
Then the prophet H5030, who H834 brought H7725 him back H7725 from the way H1870, heard H8085 it and said H559, “It is the man H376 of God H430, who H834 rebelled H4784 against the [fn]command H6310 of Yahweh H3068; therefore Yahweh H3068 has given H5414 him to the lion H738, which has mauled H7665 him and put H4191 him to H4191 death H4191, according to the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 He spoke H1696 to him.”
So He said H559, “Go H3318 forth H3318 and stand H5975 on the mountain H2022 before H6440 Yahweh H3068.” And behold H2009, Yahweh H3068 was passing H5674 by H5674! And a great H1419 and strong H2389 wind H7307 was tearing H6561 up the mountains H2022 and breaking H7665 in H7665 pieces H7665 the rocks H5553 before H6440 Yahweh H3068; but Yahweh H3068 was not in the wind H7307. And after H310 the wind H7307 an earthquake H7494, but Yahweh H3068 was not in the earthquake H7494.
So Ahaziah died H4191 according to the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 Elijah H452 had spoken H1696. And because H3588 he had H1961 no H3808 son H1121, Jehoram H3088 became H4427 king H4427 in H8478 his place H8478 in H8478 the second H8147 year H8141 of Jehoram H3088 the son H1121 of Jehoshaphat H3092, king H4428 of Judah H3063.
Now Naaman H5283, commander H8269 of the army H6635 of the king H4428 of Aram H758, was a great H1419 man H376 [fn]with his master H113, and [fn]highly H5375 H6440 respected H5375 H6440, because H3588 by him Yahweh H3068 had given H5414 salvation H8668 to Aram H758. The man H376 was also a mighty H1368 man H1368 of valor H2428, but he was a leper H6879.
Now Elisha H477 was sitting H3427 in his house H1004, and the elders H2205 were sitting H3427 with him. And the king sent H7971 a man H376 from his presence H6440; but before H2962 the messenger H4397 came H935 to him, he said H559 to the elders H2205, “Do you see H7200 how H3588 this H2088 son H1121 of a murderer H7523 has sent H7971 to take H5493 away H5493 my head H7218? Look H7200, when the messenger H4397 comes H935, shut H5462 the door H1817 and [fn]hold H3905 the door H1817 shut H3905 against him. Is not the sound H6963 of his master's H113 feet H7272 behind H310 him?”
Then Elisha H477 said H559, “Listen H8085 to the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068; thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘About this time H6256 tomorrow H4279 a [fn]seah H5429 of fine H5560 flour H5560 will be sold for a [fn]shekel H8255, and two [fn]seahs H5429 of barley H8184 for a [fn]shekel H8255, in the gate H8179 of Samaria H8111.'”
Now in the seventh H7637 year H8141 Jehoiada H3077 sent H7971 for and took H3947 the commanders H8269 of hundreds H3967 of the Carites H3746 and of the [fn]guard H7323, and brought H935 them to him in H935 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068. Then he cut H3772 a covenant H1285 with them and had H7650 them H7650 swear H7650 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, and showed H7200 them the king's H4428 son H1121.
Then Jehoash H3060 said H559 to the priests H3548, “All H3605 the money H3701 of the sacred H6944 things H6944 which H834 is brought H935 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, both the money H3701 for each H376 [fn]numbered H5674 man H376—the money H3701 from each person's H5315 assessment H6187 in the census—and all H3605 the money H3701 which H834 any H376 man's H376 heart H3820 prompts H5927 H5921 him to bring H935 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068,
But Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 took H3947 a chest H727 and bored H5344 a hole H2356 in its lid H1817 and put H5414 it beside H681 the altar H4196, on the right H3225 side H3225 as one H376 comes H935 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068; and the priests H3548 who kept H8104 watch H8104 over the threshold H5592 put H5414 in it all H3605 the money H3701 which was brought H935 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Now it happened H1961 that night H3915, that the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 went H3318 out H3318 and struck H5221 185,000 H3967 H8084 H2568 H505 in the camp H4264 of the Assyrians H804. And the [fn]men arose H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242, and behold H2009, all H3605 of [fn]them were dead H4191 bodies H6297.
Moreover H1571, Manasseh H4519 shed H8210 very H3966 much H7235 innocent H5355 blood H1818 until H5704 H834 he had filled H4390 Jerusalem H3389 from one H6310 end H6310 to another H6310; besides H905 H4480 his sin H2403 with which H834 he made Judah H3063 sin H2398, in doing H6213 what H7451 is evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068.
Then the king H4428 commanded H6680 Hilkiah H2518 the high H1419 priest H3548 and the priests H3548 of the second H4932 order and the [fn]doorkeepers H8104 H5592, to bring H3318 out H3318 of the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068 all H3605 the vessels H3627 that were made H6213 for Baal H1168, for [fn]Asherah H842, and for all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064; and he burned H8313 them outside H4480 H2351 Jerusalem H3389 in the fields H7709 of the Kidron H6939, and carried H5375 their ashes H6083 to Bethel H1008.
Moreover H1571, the mediums H178 and the spiritists H3049 and the teraphim H8655 and the idols H1544 and all H3605 the detestable H8251 things H8251 that were seen H7200 in the land H776 of Judah H3063 and in Jerusalem H3389, Josiah H2977 purged H1197 in order that he might [fn]establish H6965 the words H1697 of the law H8451 which were written H3789 in the book H5612 that Hilkiah H2518 the priest H3548 found H4672 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Shallum H7967 the son H1121 of Kore H6981, the son H1121 of [fn]Ebiasaph H43, the son H1121 of Korah H7141, and his relatives H251 of his father's H1 house H1004, the Korahites H7145, were over H5921 the work H4399 of the service H5656, keepers H8104 of the thresholds H5592 of the tent H168; and their fathers H1 had been over H5921 the camp H4264 of Yahweh H3068, keepers H8104 of the entrance H3996.
Now these H428 are the heads H7218 of the mighty H1368 men H1368 whom H834 David H1732 had, who gave H2388 him strong H2388 support H2388 in his kingdom H4438, together H5973 with H5973 all H3605 Israel H3478, to make H4427 him king H4427, according to the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 concerning H5921 Israel H3478.
Now it happened H1961 as the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of Yahweh H3068 came H935 to the city H5892 of David H1732, that Michal H4324 the daughter H1323 of Saul H7586 looked H8259 out H8259 of the window H2474 and saw H7200 King H4428 David H1732 leaping H7540 and celebrating H7832; and she despised H959 him in her heart H3820.
The sons H1121 of Amram H6019 were Aaron H175 and Moses H4872. And Aaron H175 was separated H914 in order to sanctify H6942 him as most H6944 holy H6944, he and his sons H1121 forever H5704 H5769, to offer H6999 offerings up H6999 in H6999 smoke H6999 before H6440 Yahweh H3068, to minister H8334 to Him and to bless H1288 in His name H8034 forever H5704 H5769.
These H428 were the sons H1121 of Levi H3878 according to their fathers' H1 households H1004, even the heads H7218 of the fathers' H1 households of those of them who were [fn]counted H6485, in the number H4557 of names H8034 by their [fn]census H1538, doing H6213 the work H4399 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605.
These H428 were their assignments H6486 for their service H5656 when they came H935 in H935 to the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 according to the legal judgment H4941 rendered to them by the hand H3027 of Aaron H175 their father H1, just H834 as Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, had commanded H6680 him.
Then David H1732 said H559 to his son H1121 Solomon H8010, “Be strong H2388 and courageous H553, and act H6213; do not fear H3372 nor H408 be dismayed H2865, for Yahweh H3068 God H430, my God H430, is with you. He will not fail H7503 you nor H3808 forsake H5800 you until H5704 all H3605 the work H4399 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 is completed H3615.
Then Solomon H8010 began H2490 to build H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 in Jerusalem H3389 on Mount H2022 Moriah H4179, where H834 Yahweh had appeared H7200 to his father H1 David H1732, at the place H4725 that David H1732 had prepared H3559 on the threshing H1637 floor H1637 of [fn]Ornan H771 the Jebusite H2983.
Thus all H3605 the work H4399 that Solomon H8010 did H6213 for the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 was finished H7999. And Solomon H8010 brought H935 in H935 the [fn]things set H6944 apart H6944 as H6944 holy H6944 by his father H1 David H1732, even the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 and all H3605 the utensils H3627, and he put H5414 them in the treasuries H214 of the house H1004 of God H430.
Then H227 Solomon H8010 assembled H6950 the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 and all H3605 the heads H7218 of the tribes H4294, the leaders H5387 of the fathers' H1 households of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 to Jerusalem H3389, to bring H5927 up H5927 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of Yahweh H3068 from the city H5892 of David H1732, which H1931 is Zion H6726.
Then Solomon H8010 set H6942 apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942 the middle H8432 of the court H2691 that was before H6440 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, because there H8033 he offered H6213 the burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and the fat H2459 of the peace H8002 offerings H8002; for H3588 the bronze H5178 altar H4196 which H834 Solomon H8010 had made H6213 was H3201 not able H3201 to hold H3557 the burnt H5930 offering H5930 and the grain offering H4503 and the fat H2459.
Then Solomon H8010 brought H5927 Pharaoh's H6547 daughter H1323 up H5927 from the city H5892 of David H1732 to the house H1004 which H834 he had built H1129 for her, for he said H559, “My wife H802 shall not live H3427 in the house H1004 of David H1732 king H4428 of Israel H3478, because H3588 [fn]the places H1992 are holy H6944 where H834 the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068 has entered H935.”
When Yahweh H3068 saw H7200 that they humbled H3665 themselves, the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 came H1961 to Shemaiah H8098, saying H559, “They have humbled H3665 themselves so I will not bring them to ruin H7843, but I will grant H5414 them some H4592 measure of escape H6413, and My wrath H2534 shall not be poured H5413 out H5413 on Jerusalem H3389 by the hand H3027 of Shishak H7895.
So Shishak H7895 king H4428 of Egypt H4714 came H5927 up H5927 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389, and took H3947 the treasures H214 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 and the treasures H214 of the king's H4428 house H1004. He took H3947 everything H3605; he even took H3947 the shields H4043 of gold H2091 which H834 Solomon H8010 had made H6213.
“So now H6258 you [fn]intend H559 to exert H2388 your strength H2388 before the kingdom H4467 of Yahweh H3068 by the hand H3027 of the sons H1121 of David H1732, [fn]being a great H7227 multitude H1995 and having with you the golden H2091 calves H5695 which H834 Jeroboam H3379 made H6213 for gods H430 for you.
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 strengthened H2388 himself and took H5674 away H5674 the detestable 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 renewed H2318 the altar H4196 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 was in front H6440 of the porch H197 of Yahweh H3068.
In Jerusalem H3389 also H1571 Jehoshaphat H3092 appointed H5975 some H4480 of the Levites H3881 and priests H3548, and some H4480 of the heads H7218 of the fathers' H1 households of Israel H3478, for the judgment H4941 of Yahweh H3068 and to judge H7378 [fn]disputes H7378. So they returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389.
Now the downfall H8395 of Ahaziah H274 was from God H430, in that [fn]he went H935 to Joram H3141. And when he came H935, he went H3318 out H3318 with Jehoram H3088 against H413 Jehu H3058 the son H1121 of Nimshi H5250, whom H834 Yahweh H3068 had anointed H4886 to cut H3772 off H3772 the house H1004 of Ahab H256.
Now the Spirit H7307 of God H430 clothed H3847 Zechariah H2148 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548; and he stood H5975 above H4480 H5921 the people H5971 and said H559 to them, “Thus H3541 says H559 God H430, ‘Why H4100 do you trespass H5674 against the commandments H4687 of Yahweh H3068 and do not succeed H6743? Because H3588 you have forsaken H5800 Yahweh H3068, He has also forsaken H5800 you.'”
But when he became H2393 strong H2393, his heart H3820 was H1361 so [fn]proud H1361 that he acted H7843 corruptly H7843, and he was H4603 unfaithful H4603 to Yahweh H3068 his God H430. And he entered H935 the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068 to burn H6999 incense H6999 on the altar H4196 of incense H7004.
He then caused the Levites H3881 to stand H5975 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 with cymbals H4700, with harps H5035, and with lyres H3658, according to the command H4687 of David H1732 and of Gad H1410 the king's H4428 seer H2374, and of Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030; for the command H4687 was from Yahweh H3068 by the hand H3027 of His prophets H5030.
Then Hezekiah H2396 answered H6030 and said H559, “Now H6258 that you have [fn]become ordained H4390 H3027 to Yahweh H3068, approach H5066 and bring H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank H8426 offerings H8426 to the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.” And the assembly H6951 brought H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank H8426 offerings H8426, and all H3605 those who were willing H5081 of heart H3820 brought burnt H5930 offerings H5930.
And Hezekiah H2396 sent H7971 to all H3605 Israel H3478 and Judah H3063 and wrote H3789 letters H107 also H1571 to Ephraim H669 and Manasseh H4519, that they should come H935 to the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 at Jerusalem H3389 to [fn]celebrate H6213 the Passover H6453 to Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478.
And Hezekiah H2396 set H5975 up H5975 the divisions H4256 of the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 by their divisions H4256, each H376 according H6310 to his service H5656, both the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881, for burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and for peace H8002 offerings H8002, to minister H8334 and to give H3034 thanks H3034 and to praise H1984 in the gates H8179 of the camp H4264 of Yahweh H3068.
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Manasseh H4519, even his prayer H8605 to his God H430, and the words H1697 of the seers H2374 who spoke H1696 to him in the name H8034 of Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, behold H2009, they are among H5921 the chronicles H1697 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478.
Now in the eighteenth H8083 H6240 year H8141 of his reign H4427, when he had cleansed H2891 the land H776 and the house H1004, he sent H7971 Shaphan H8227 the son H1121 of Azaliah H683, and Maaseiah H4641 an official H8269 of the city H5892, and Joah H3098 the son H1121 of Joahaz H3099 the recorder H2142, to repair H2388 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 his God H430.
Now in the first H259 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539—in order to complete H3615 the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 by the mouth H6310 of Jeremiah H3414—Yahweh H3068 stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539, so that he had H5674 a proclamation H6963 pass H5674 throughout H3605 all his kingdom H4438, and also H1571 put it in writing H4385, saying H559,
Now in the first H259 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539—in order to complete H3615 the word H1697 of [fn]Yahweh H3068 from the mouth H6310 of Jeremiah H3414—Yahweh H3068 stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539, so that he had H5674 a proclamation H6963 pass H5674 throughout all H3605 his kingdom H4438, and also H1571 put it in writing H4385, saying H559:
Then the heads H7218 of fathers' H1 households of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 and the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 arose H6965, that is of everyone H3605 whose spirit H7307 God H430 had stirred H5782 to go H5927 up H5927 to rebuild H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.
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 and 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 from twenty H6242 years H8141 and older H4605 to direct H5329 the work H4399 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
So the builders H1129 laid H3245 the foundation H3245 of the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068. Then [fn]the priests H3548 stood H5975 in H3847 their apparel H3847 with trumpets H2689, and the Levites H3881, the sons H1121 of Asaph H623, with cymbals H4700, to praise H1984 Yahweh H3068 according H5921 to the [fn]directions H3027 of King H4428 David H1732 of Israel H3478.
Likewise we cast H5307 lots H1486 for the supply H7133 of wood H6086 among the priests H3548, the Levites H3881, and the people H5971, in order to bring H935 it to the house H1004 of our God H430, according to our fathers' H1 households H1004, at fixed H2163 times H6256 annually H8141, to burn H1197 on the altar H4196 of Yahweh H3068 our God H430, as it is written H3789 in the law H8451;
And many H7227 peoples H5971 will come H1980 and say H559,
“Come H1980, let us go H5927 up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of Yahweh H3068,
To the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290,
That He may instruct H3384 us [fn]from H4480 His ways H1870
And that we may walk H1980 in His paths H734.”
For from Zion H6726 the [fn]law H8451 will go H3318 forth H3318
For the vineyard H3754 of Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635 is the house H1004 of Israel H3478
And the men H376 of Judah H3063 His delightful H8191 plant H5194.
Thus He hoped H6960 for justice H4941, but behold H2009, bloodshed H4939;
For righteousness H6666, but behold H2009, a cry H6818 of H6818 distress H6818.
Therefore H3651, as a tongue H3956 of fire H784 consumes H398 stubble H7179
And dry H2842 grass H2842 collapses H7503 into the flame H3852,
So their root H8328 will become H1961 like rot H4716 and their blossom H6525 [fn]blow H5927 away H5927 as dust H80;
For they have rejected H3988 the law H8451 of Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635
And the word H565 of the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 they have spurned H5006.
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 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 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635 will accomplish H6213 this H2088.
At that time H6256 a gift H7862 of H7862 homage H7862 will be brought H2986 to Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635
[fn]From a people H5971 [fn]tall H4900 and smooth H4803,
Even from a people H5971 feared H3372 [fn]far H4480 H1931 and wide H1973,
A powerful H6978 and oppressive H4001 nation H1471,
Whose H834 land H776 the rivers H5104 divide H958—
To the place H4725 of the name H8034 of Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, even Mount H2022 Zion H6726.
So the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 to them will be,
“[fn]Order H6673 on order H6673, order H6673 on order H6673,
Line H6957 on line H6957, line H6957 on line H6957,
A little H2191 here H8033, a little H2191 there H8033,”
That they may go H1980 and stumble H3782 backward H268, be broken H7665, snared H3369, and taken H3920 captive H3920.
You will have H1961 [fn]songs H7892 as in the night H3915 when you set H6942 yourself apart H6942 as holy H6942 for the festival H2282,
And gladness H8057 of heart H3824 as when one marches H1980 to the sound of the flute H2485,
To go H935 to the mountain H2022 of Yahweh H3068, to the Rock H6697 of Israel H3478.
For [fn]Topheth H8613 has long H865 been ready H6186,
Indeed H1571, it has been prepared H3559 for the king H4428.
He has made H6009 it deep H6009 and large H7337,
[fn]A pyre H4071 of fire H784 with plenty H7235 of wood H6086;
The breath H5397 of Yahweh H3068, like a torrent H5158 of brimstone H1614, sets H1197 it afire H1197.
The sword H2719 of Yahweh H3068 is filled H4390 with blood H1818;
It is [fn]sated 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 Yahweh H3068 has a sacrifice H2077 in Bozrah H1224
And a great H1419 slaughter H2874 in the land H776 of Edom H123.
Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, the Redeemer H1350 of Israel H3478 and its Holy H6918 One H6918,
To the despised H960 One,
To the One abhorred H8581 by the nation H1471,
To the Servant H5650 of rulers H4910,
“Kings H4428 will see H7200 and arise H6965,
Princes H8269 will also bow H2331 down H2331,
Because H4616 of Yahweh H3068 who H834 is faithful H539, the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 who has chosen H977 You.”
“Surely H3588 the coastlands H339 will hope H6960 in 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 Yahweh H3068 your God H430,
And for the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478 because H3588 He has [fn]adorned H6286 you with beautiful H6286 glory H6286.
To grant H7760 those who mourn H57 in Zion H6726,
Giving H5414 them a headdress H6287 instead H8478 of H8478 ashes H665,
The oil H8081 of rejoicing H8342 instead H8478 of H8478 mourning H60,
The mantle H4594 of praise H8416 instead H8478 of H8478 a spirit H7307 of fainting H3544.
So they will be called H7121 [fn]oaks H352 of righteousness H6664,
The planting H4302 of Yahweh H3068, that He may show H6286 forth His beautiful H6286 glory H6286.
I shall bring H2142 to remembrance H2142 the lovingkindnesses H2617 of Yahweh H3068, the praises H8416 of Yahweh H3068,
According H5921 to all H3605 the ways that Yahweh H3068 has dealt H1580 bountifully H1580 with us,
And the abundant H7227 goodness H2898 toward the house H1004 of Israel H3478,
Which H834 He has dealt H1580 bountifully H1580 to them according to His compassion H7356
And according to the abundance H7230 of His lovingkindnesses H2617.
Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068,
“As the new H8492 wine H8492 is found H4672 in the cluster H811,
And one says H559, ‘Do not make H7843 it a ruin H7843, for there is [fn]benefit H1293 in it,'
So H3651 I will act H6213 on behalf H4616 of My slaves H5650
In order not to make H7843 [fn]all H3605 of them a ruin H7843.
Who H4310 is the wise H2450 man H376 that may understand H995 this H2088? And who is he to whom H834 the mouth H6310 of Yahweh H3068 has spoken H1696, that he may declare H5046 it? Why H5921 H4100 has the land H776 perished H6, turned H5327 into ruin H5327 like a desert H4057, so H4480 H1097 that no H1097 one H1097 passes H5674 through H5674?
“Now when H3588 you tell H5046 this H2088 people H5971 all H3605 these H428 words H1697, they will say H559 to you, ‘For H5921 what H4100 reason H5921 H4100 has Yahweh H3068 declared H1696 all H3605 this H2088 great H1419 calamity H7451 against H5921 us? And what H4100 is our iniquity H5771, or what H4100 is our sin H2403 which H834 we have committed H2398 against Yahweh H3068 our God H430?'
After H310 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 away H1540 into H1540 exile H1540 Jeconiah H3204 the son H1121 of Jehoiakim H3079, king H4428 of Judah H3063, and the officials H8269 of Judah H3063 with the craftsmen H2796 and smiths H4525 from Jerusalem H3389, and had brought H935 them to Babylon H894, Yahweh H3068 showed H7200 me: behold H2009, two H8147 baskets H1731 of figs H8384 set H3259 before H6440 the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068!
“Did Hezekiah H2396 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and all H3605 Judah H3063 put H4191 him to H4191 death H4191? Did he not fear H3372 Yahweh H3068 and entreat H2470 the favor H6440 of Yahweh H3068, and Yahweh H3068 [fn]relented H5162 of H413 the evil H7451 demise which H834 He had spoken H1696 against H5921 them? But we are committing H6213 a great H1419 evil H7451 against H5921 ourselves H5315.”
Indeed H1571, there was also H1571 a man H376 who prophesied H5012 in the name H8034 of Yahweh H3068, Uriah H223 the son H1121 of Shemaiah H8098 from Kiriath-jearim H7157; and he prophesied H5012 against H5921 this H2088 city H5892 and against H5921 this H2088 land H776 words H1697 similar to all H3605 those of Jeremiah H3414.
Then I spoke H1696 to the priests H3548 and to all H3605 this H2088 people H5971, saying H559, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068: Do not listen H8085 to the words H1697 of your prophets H5030 who prophesy H5012 to you, saying H559, ‘Behold H2009, the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 will now H6258 shortly H4120 be returned H7725 from Babylon H894'; for they are prophesying H5012 a lie H8267 to you.
Now it happened 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, that Hananiah H2608 the son H1121 of Azzur H5809, the prophet H5030, who H834 was from Gibeon H1391, spoke H559 to me in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 in the sight H5869 of the priests H3548 and all H3605 the people H5971, saying H559,
“They will come H935 and sing H7442 for H7442 joy H7442 on the height H4791 of Zion H6726,
And they will be radiant H5102 over H413 the goodness H2898 of Yahweh H3068—
Over H5921 the grain H1715 and the new H8492 wine H8492 and the oil H3323,
And over H5921 the young H1121 of the flock H6629 and the herd H1241;
And their soul H5315 will be like a watered H7302 garden H1588,
And they will never H3808 H5750 waste H1669 away H1669 again H3254.
“Give H3034 thanks H3034 to Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635,
For Yahweh H3068 is good H2896,
For His lovingkindness H2617 endures forever H5769”;
and of those who bring H935 a thank H8426 offering H8426 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068. For I will [fn]return H7725 the [fn]fortunes H7622 of the land H776 as they were at first H7223,' says H559 Yahweh H3068.
The word H1697 which H834 came H1961 to Jeremiah H3414 from Yahweh H3068, when Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 and all H3605 his military H2428 force H2428, with all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776 that were under his [fn]dominion H4475 and all H3605 the peoples H5971, were fighting H3898 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389 and against H5921 all H3605 its cities H5892, saying H559,
Now it happened in the fifth H2549 year H8141 of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977, king H4428 of Judah H3063, in the ninth H8671 month H2320, that all H3605 the people H5971 in Jerusalem H3389 and all H3605 the people H5971 who came H935 from the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 to Jerusalem H3389 called H7121 for a fast H6685 before H6440 Yahweh H3068.
Then King H4428 Zedekiah H6667 sent H7971 and took H3947 him out; and in his palace H1004 the king H4428 secretly H5643 asked H7592 him and said H559, “Is H3426 there H3426 a word H1697 from Yahweh H3068?” And Jeremiah H3414 said H559, “There H3426 is H3426!” Then he said H559, “You will be given H5414 into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894!”
Then King H4428 Zedekiah H6667 sent H7971 and [fn]had Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 brought H3947 to him at the third H7992 entrance H3996 that is in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068; and the king H4428 said H559 to Jeremiah H3414, “I am going to ask H7592 you something H1697; do not hide H3582 anything H1697 from me.”
The word H1697 which H834 came H1961 to Jeremiah H3414 from Yahweh H3068 after H310 Nebuzaradan H5018 captain H7227 of the bodyguard H2876 had released H7971 him from Ramah H7414, when he had taken H3947 him bound H631 in chains H246 among H8432 all H3605 the exiles H1546 of Jerusalem H3389 and Judah H3063 who were being exiled H1540 to Babylon H894.
Indeed, that day H3117 belongs to Lord H136 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635,
A day H3117 of vengeance H5360, so as to avenge H5358 Himself on His adversaries H6862;
And the sword H2719 will devour H398 and be H7646 satiated H7646
And [fn]drink H7301 its fill H7301 of their blood H1818;
For there will be a sacrifice H2077 to Lord H136 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635
In the land H776 of the north H6828 by the river H5104 Euphrates H6578.
Therefore H3651 hear H8085 the counsel H6098 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 He has counseled H3289 against H413 Edom H123, and His purposes H4284 which H834 He has purposed H2803 against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Teman H8487: surely H518 H3808 they will drag H5498 them off H5498, even the little H6810 ones H6810 of the flock H6629; surely H518 H3808 He will make H8074 their pasture H5116 desolate H8074 because H5921 of them.
Sharpen H1305 the arrows H2671, fill H4390 the quivers H7982!
Yahweh H3068 has aroused H5782 the spirit H7307 of the kings H4428 of the Medes H4074
Because H3588 His purpose H4209 is against H5921 Babylon H894 to destroy H7843 it;
For it is the vengeance H5360 of Yahweh H3068, vengeance H5360 for His temple H1964.
Qoph
“Arise H6965, cry H7442 aloud H7442 in the night H3915
At the head H7218 of the night watches H821;
Pour H8210 out H8210 your heart H3820 like water H4325
Before H5227 the presence H6440 of the Lord H136;
Lift H5375 up H5375 your hands H3709 to Him
For the life H5315 of your infants H5768
Then He brought H935 me into the inner H6442 court H2691 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068. And behold H2009, at the entrance H6607 to the temple H1964 of Yahweh 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 Yahweh H3068 and their faces H6440 toward the east H6924; and they were [fn]prostrating H2331 themselves eastward H6924 toward the sun H8121.
Moreover, the Spirit H7307 lifted H5375 me up H5375 and brought H935 me to the east H6931 gate H8179 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 which faced H6437 eastward H6931. And behold H2009, at the entrance H6607 of the gate H8179, there were twenty-five H6242 H2568 men H376, and I saw H7200 among H8432 them Jaazaniah H2970 son H1121 of Azzur H5809 and Pelatiah H6410 son H1121 of Benaiah H1141, officials H8269 of the people H5971.
“But as for you, son H1121 of man H120, the sons H1121 of your people H5971 who talk H1696 about you by the walls H7023 and in the doorways H6607 of the houses H1004, speak H1696 to one H2297 another H259, each H376 to his brother H251, saying H559, ‘Come H935 now H4994 and hear H8085 what H4100 the word H1697 is which comes H3318 forth H3318 from Yahweh H3068.'
In the twenty-fifth H6242 H2568 year H8141 of our exile H1546, at the beginning H7218 of the year H8141, on the tenth H6218 of the month H2320, in the fourteenth H702 H6240 year H8141 after H310 the city H5892 was struck H5221 down H5221, on that same H6106 day H3117 the hand H3027 of Yahweh H3068 was upon me, and He brought H935 me there H8033.
Now while H5750 I was speaking H1696 and praying H6419, and confessing H3034 my sin H2403 and the sin H2403 of my people H5971 Israel H3478, and [fn]presenting H5307 my supplication H8467 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 my God H430 in H5921 behalf H5921 of H5921 the holy H6944 mountain H2022 of my God H430,
The word H1697 of [fn]Yahweh H3068 which H834 came H1961 to Hosea H1954 the son H1121 of Beeri H882, in the days H3117 of Uzziah H5818, Jotham H3147, Ahaz H271, and Hezekiah H2396, kings H4428 of Judah H3063, and in the days H3117 of Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Joash H3060, king H4428 of Israel H3478.
When Yahweh H3068 first H8462 spoke H1696 through Hosea H1954, Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Hosea H1954, “Go H1980, take H3947 for yourself a wife H802 of harlotry H2183 and have children H3206 of harlotry H2183; for the land H776 commits H2181 flagrant H2181 harlotry H2181, [fn]forsaking H4480 H310 Yahweh H3068.”
They will not pour H5258 out H5258 drink H5258 offerings H5258 of wine H3196 to Yahweh H3068;
Their sacrifices H2077 will not please H6149 Him.
Their bread will [fn]be like [fn]mourners' H205 bread H3899;
All H3605 who eat H398 of it will be defiled H2930,
For their bread H3899 will be for [fn]themselves H5315 alone;
But Yahweh H3068 gives H5414 forth His voice H6963 before H6440 His military H2428 force H2428;
Surely H3588 His camp H4264 is very H3966 numerous H7227,
For mighty H6099 is he who does H6213 His word H1697.
The day H3117 of Yahweh H3068 is indeed H3588 great H1419 and very H3966 awesome H3372,
And who can endure H3557 it?
And it will be in that day H3117,
That the mountains H2022 will drip H5197 with [fn]sweet H6071 wine H6071,
And the hills H1389 will flow H1980 with milk H2461,
And all H3605 the brooks H650 of Judah H3063 will flow H1980 with water H4325;
And a spring H4599 will go H3318 out H3318 from the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068
Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068,
“For three H7969 transgressions H6588 of Judah H3063 and for four H702
I will not turn H7725 back H7725 its punishment
Because H5921 they rejected H3988 the law H8451 of Yahweh H3068
And have not kept H8104 His statutes H2706;
Their [fn]falsehood H3577 also has led H8582 them astray H8582,
And many H7227 nations H1471 will come H1980 and say H559,
“Come H1980 and let us go H5927 up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of Yahweh H3068
And to the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290,
That He may instruct H3384 us from H4480 His ways H1870
And that we may walk H1980 in His paths H734.”
For from Zion H6726 will go H3318 forth H3318 the law H8451,
“My people H5971, remember H2142 now H4994
What H4100 Balak H1111 king H4428 of Moab H4124 counseled H3289
And what H4100 Balaam H1109 son H1121 of Beor H1160 answered H6030 him,
And from Shittim H7851 to Gilgal H1537,
So H4616 [fn]that you might know H3045 the righteous H6666 acts H6666 of Yahweh H3068.”
“You will be filled H7646 with disgrace H7036 rather H4480 than H4480 glory H3519.
Now H1571 you yourself H859 drink H8354 and [fn]expose H6188 your own nakedness H6188.
The cup H3563 in Yahweh's H3068 right H3225 hand H3225 will come H5437 around H5437 to you,
And utter H7022 disgrace H7022 will come upon your glory H3519.
Neither H1571 H3808 their silver H3701 nor H1571 their gold H2091
Will be H3201 able H3201 to deliver H5337 them
On the day H3117 of the fury H5678 of Yahweh H3068;
And all H3605 the earth H776 will be devoured H398
In the fire H784 of His jealousy H7068,
For He will make H6213 a complete H3617 destruction H3617,
Woe H1945 to the inhabitants H3427 of the seacoast H3220 H2256,
The nation H1471 of the [fn]Cherethites H3774!
The word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 is against H5921 you,
O Canaan H3667, land H776 of the Philistines H6430;
And I will make you perish H6
So H4480 that H4480 there H369 will H369 be H369 no H369 inhabitant H3427.
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, listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of Yahweh H3068 their God H430 and the words H1697 of Haggai H2292 the prophet H5030, as Yahweh H3068 their God H430 had sent H7971 him. And the people H5971 feared H3372 Yahweh H3068.
On the twenty-fourth H6242 H702 day H3117 of the eleventh H6249 H6240 month H2320, which H1931 is the month H2320 Shebat H7627, in the second H8147 year H8141 of Darius H1867, the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 came H1961 to Zechariah H2148 the prophet H5030, the son H1121 of Berechiah H1296, the son H1121 of Iddo H5714, saying H559,
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 answered H6030 and said H559, “O Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, how H4970 long H5704 H4970 will You have H7355 no H3808 compassion H7355 for H7355 Jerusalem H3389 and the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, with which H834 You have been H2194 indignant H2194 these H2088 seventy H7657 years H8141?”
“Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, ‘Let your hands H3027 be strong H2388, you who are listening H8085 in these H428 days H3117 to these H428 words H1697 from the mouth H6310 of the prophets H5030, those who H834 spoke in the day H3117 that the foundation H3245 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635 was laid H3245, to the end that the temple H1964 might be built H1129.
“And this H2088 is a second H8145 thing H8145 you do H6213: you cover H3680 the altar H4196 of Yahweh H3068 with tears H1832, with weeping H1065, and with groaning H603 because H4480 He no H369 longer H5750 regards H6437 the [fn]offering H4503 or receives H3947 it as acceptable H7522 from your hand H3027.
You have wearied H3021 Yahweh H3068 with your words H1697. But you say H559, “How H4100 have we wearied H3021 Him?” In that you say H559, “Everyone H3605 who does H6213 evil H7451 is good H2896 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068, and He delights H2654 in them,” or H176, “Where H346 is the God H430 of justice H4941?”
“[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 worker H6213 of wickedness H7564 will be chaff H7179; and the day H3117 that is coming H935 will set H3857 them aflame H3857,” says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, “so H834 that H834 it will leave H5800 them neither H3808 root H8328 nor H3808 branch H6057.”
