“Because H3588 you have done H6213 this H2088,
Cursed H779 are you more H4480 than H4480 all H3605 the livestock H929,
And more H4480 than H4480 any H3605 animal H2416 of the field H7704;
On your belly H1512 you shall go H1980,
Then to Adam H121 He said H559, “Because H3588 you have listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of your wife H802, and have eaten H398 from the tree H6086 about which H834 I commanded H6680 you, saying H559, ‘You shall not eat H398 from it';
Cursed H779 is the ground H127 because H5668 of you;
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.
So it came H1961 about H1961, when God H430 destroyed H7843 the cities H5892 of the surrounding H3603 area H3603, that God H430 remembered H2142 Abraham H85, and sent H7971 Lot H3876 out H7971 of the midst H8432 of the destruction H2018, when He overthrew H2015 the cities H5892 in which H834 Lot H3876 had lived H3427.
And Rebekah H7259 said H559 to Isaac H3327, “I am tired H6973 of [fn]living H2416 because H4480 H6440 of the daughters H1323 of Heth H2845; if H518 Jacob H3290 takes H3947 a wife H802 from the daughters H1323 of Heth H2845 like these H428 from the daughters H1323 of the land H776, what H4100 good will my life H2416 be to me?”
Then Esau H6215 took H3947 his wives H802, his sons H1121, his daughters H1323, and all H3605 [fn]his household H1004, and his livestock H4735 and all H3605 his cattle H929, and all H3605 his property H7075 which H834 he had acquired H7408 in the land H776 of Canaan H3667, and went H1980 to another land H776 away from his brother H251 Jacob H3290.
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.
And all H3605 the people H5971 were watching H7200 and hearing the [fn]thunder H6963 and the lightning H3940 flashes H3940, and the sound H6963 of the trumpet H7782, and the mountain H2022 smoking H6226; and when the people H5971 saw H7200 it all, they trembled H5128 and stood H5975 at a distance H7350.
And it came H1961 about H1961, as H834 soon H834 as H834 [fn]Moses approached H7126 the camp H4264, that he saw H7200 the calf H5695 and the people dancing H4246; and Moses' H4872 anger H639 burned H2734, and he threw H7993 the tablets H3871 from his hands H3027 and shattered H7665 them to H7665 pieces H7665 [fn]at H8478 the H8478 foot H8478 of H8478 the mountain H2022.
Now from the [fn]violet H8504, purple H713, and scarlet H8144 material they made H6213 finely H8278 woven H8278 garments H899 for ministering H8334 in the Holy H6944 Place H6944, [fn]as well as the holy H6944 garments H899 which H834 were for Aaron H175, just H834 as H834 the LORD H3068 had commanded H6680 Moses H4872.
So Moses H4872 took H3947 some H4480 of the anointing H4888 oil H8081 and some H4480 of the blood H1818 which H834 was on the altar H4196, and sprinkled H5137 it on Aaron H175, on his garments H899, on his sons H1121, and on the garments H899 of his sons H1121 with him; and he consecrated H6942 Aaron H175, his garments H899, and his sons H1121, and the garments H899 of his sons H1121 with him.
‘When H3588 a woman H802 gives H2232 birth H2232 and delivers H3205 a male H2145 child, then she shall be H2930 unclean H2930 for seven H7651 days H3117; as she is in the days H3117 of her menstruation H5079 H1738, she shall be H2930 unclean H2930.
Now those who were to camp H2583 in front H6440 of the tabernacle H4908 eastward H6924, in front H6440 of the tent H168 of meeting H4150 toward the sunrise H4217, were Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 and his sons H1121, performing H8104 the duties H4931 of the sanctuary H4720 for the obligation H4931 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478; but the [fn]layman H2114 coming H7131 near H7131 was to be put H4191 to H4191 death H4191.
‘All H3605 the days H3117 of his vow H5088 of consecration H5145 no H3808 razor H8593 shall pass H5674 over H5921 his head H7218. He shall be holy H6918 until H5704 the days H3117 are fulfilled H4390 which H834 he lives H5144 as H5144 a H5144 Nazirite H5144 for the LORD H3068; he shall let the locks H6545 of hair H8181 on his head H7218 grow H1431 long H1431.
So the LORD H3068 said H559 to Aaron H175, “You, your sons H1121, and your father's H1 household H1004 with you shall bear H5375 the guilt H5771 [fn]in connection with the sanctuary H4720, and you and your sons H1121 with you shall bear H5375 the guilt H5771 [fn]in connection with your priesthood H3550.
‘You shall present H6213 these H428 to the LORD H3068 at your appointed H4150 times H4150, besides H905 H4480 your vowed H5088 offerings H5088 and your [fn]voluntary H5071 offerings H5071, for your burnt H5930 offerings H5930, your grain offerings H4503, your drink H5262 offerings H5262, and for your peace H8002 offerings H8002.'”
So Moses H4872 gave H5414 to them, to the sons H1121 of Gad H1410, the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205, and to the half-tribe H2677 H7626 of Joseph's H3130 son H1121 Manasseh H4519, the kingdom H4467 of Sihon H5511, king H4428 of the Amorites H567 and the kingdom H4467 of Og H5747, the king H4428 of Bashan H1316, the land H776 with its cities H5892 with their [fn]territories H1367, the cities H5892 of the surrounding H5439 land H776.
“Then all H3605 of you approached H7126 me and said H559, ‘Let us send H7971 men H376 ahead H6440 of us, so that they may spy H2658 out H2658 the land H776 for us, and bring H7725 back H7725 to us word H1697 of the way H1870 by which H834 we should go H5927 up H5927, and the cities H5892 which H834 we should enter H935.'
“Only H7534 be H8104 careful H8104 for yourself and watch H8104 over H8104 your soul H5315 diligently H3966, so H6435 that H6435 you do not H6435 forget H7911 the things H1697 which H834 your eyes H5869 have seen H7200 and they do not H6435 depart H5493 from H5493 your heart H3824 all H3605 the days H3117 of your life H2416; but make H3045 them known H3045 to your sons H1121 and your grandsons H1121.
“Indeed H3588, ask H7592 now H4994 about the earlier H7223 days H3117 that were [fn]before H6440 your time, since H4480 the day H3117 that God H430 created H1254 [fn]mankind H120 on the earth H776, and inquire from one end H7097 of the heavens H8064 to the other H7097 H8064. Has anything been done H1961 like this H2088 great H1419 thing H1697, or H176 has anything been heard H8085 like H3644 it?
“All H3605 the commandments H4687 that I am commanding H6680 you today H3117 you shall be H8104 careful H8104 to do H6213, so H4616 that H4616 you may live H2421 and increase H7235, and go H935 in H935 and take H3423 possession H3423 of the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 swore H7650 to give to your forefathers H1.
“Do not say H559 in your heart H3824 when the LORD H3068 your God H430 has driven H1920 them away H1920 from [fn]you, ‘Because of my righteousness H6666 the LORD H3068 has brought H935 me in H935 to take H3423 possession H3423 of this H2088 land H776.' Rather, it is because of the [fn]wickedness H7564 of these H428 nations H1471 that the LORD H3068 is dispossessing H3423 them before H4480 H6440 you.
“These H428 are the statutes H2706 and the judgments H4941 which H834 you shall carefully H8104 [fn]follow H6213 in the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of your fathers H1, has given H5414 you to possess H3423 [fn]as H3605 H3117 long H3605 H3117 as you live H2416 on the [fn]earth H127.
“When H3588 a man H376 takes H3947 a wife H802 and marries H1166 her, and it happens H1961, if she finds H4672 no H3808 favor H2580 in his eyes H5869 because H3588 he has found H4672 some H1697 indecency H6172 in her, that he writes H3789 her a certificate H5612 of divorce H3748, puts H5414 it in her hand H3027, and [fn]sends H7971 her away H7971 from his house H1004,
“Now it shall be, if H518 you diligently H8085 [fn]obey H8085 H6963 the LORD 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, that the LORD H3068 your God H430 will put H5414 you high H5945 above H5921 all H3605 the nations H1471 of the earth H776.
“But it shall come H1961 about H1961, if H518 you do not [fn]obey H8085 H6963 the LORD H3068 your God H430, to be H8104 careful H8104 to [fn]follow H6213 all H3605 His commandments H4687 and His statutes H2708 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 upon you and pursue H7291 you and overtake H5381 you until H5704 you are destroyed H8045, because H3588 you would not [fn]obey H8085 H6963 the LORD H3068 your God H430 by keeping H8104 His commandments H4687 and His statutes H2708 which H834 He commanded H6680 you.
“Now the future H314 generation H1755, your sons H1121 who H834 rise H6965 up H6965 after H4480 H310 you and the foreigner H5237 who H834 comes H935 from a distant H7350 land H776, when they see H7200 the plagues H4347 of that land H776 and the diseases H8463 with which H834 the LORD H3068 has afflicted H2470 it, will say H559,
Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Behold H2005, [fn]the time H3117 for you to die H4191 is near H7126; call H7121 Joshua H3091 and present H3320 yourselves at the tent H168 of meeting H4150, and I will commission H6680 him.” So Moses H4872 and Joshua H3091 went H1980 and presented H3320 themselves at the tent H168 of meeting H4150.
Then Joshua H3091 made them take H7650 an H7650 oath H7650 at that time H6256, saying H559, “Cursed H779 before H6440 the LORD 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 will lay H3245 its foundation H3245, and with the loss of his youngest H6810 son H6810 he will set H5324 up H5324 its gates H1817.”
Now the LORD H3068 said H559 to Joshua H3091, “Do not fear H3372 or be dismayed H2865. Take H3947 all H3605 the people H5971 of war H4421 with you. Arise H6965, go H5927 up H5927 to Ai H5857; see H7200, I have handed H5414 H3027 over H5414 to you the king H4428 of Ai H5857, his people H5971, his city H5892, and his land H776.
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.
Then the men H376 of Gibeon H1391 sent H7971 word to Joshua H3091 at the camp H4264 at Gilgal H1537, saying H559, “Do not [fn]abandon H7503 H3027 H4480 your servants H5650; come H5927 up H5927 to us quickly H4120 and save H3467 us and help H5826 us, for all H3605 the kings H4428 of the Amorites H567 that live H3427 in the hill H2022 country H2022 have assembled H6908 against H413 us.”
These H428 are the inheritances H5159 which H834 Eleazar H499 the priest H3548, Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Nun H5126, and the heads H7218 of the fathers' H1 households of the tribes H4294 of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 apportioned H5157 by lot H1486 in Shiloh H7887 before H6440 the LORD H3068 at the doorway H6607 of the tent H168 of meeting H4150. So they finished H3615 dividing H2505 the land H776.
And to the sons H1121 of Gershon H1648, one of the families H4940 of the Levites H3881, from the half-tribe H2677 H4294 of Manasseh H4519, they gave Golan H1474 in Bashan H1316, the city H5892 of refuge H4733 for the one who commits H7523 manslaughter H7523, with its pasture H4054 lands H4054, and Be-eshterah H1203 with its pasture H4054 lands H4054; two H8147 cities H5892.
But Manasseh H4519 did not take H3423 possession H3423 of Beth-shean H1052 and its villages H1323, or Taanach H8590 and its villages H1323, or the inhabitants H3427 of Dor H1756 and its villages H1323, or the inhabitants H3427 of Ibleam H2991 and its villages H1323, or the inhabitants H3427 of Megiddo H4023 and its villages H1323; so the Canaanites H3669 persisted H2974 in living H3427 in this H2088 land H776.
“At the sound H6963 of those who distribute H2686 water among H996 the watering H4857 places H4857,
There H8033 they will recount H8567 the righteous H6666 deeds H6666 of the LORD H3068,
The righteous H6666 deeds H6666 for His [fn]peasantry H6520 in Israel H3478.
Then H227 the people H5971 of the LORD H3068 went H3381 down H3381 to the gates H8179.
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.
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.
Then Delilah H1807 said H559 to Samson H8123, “Up to now H2008 you have toyed H8524 with me and told H1696 me lies H3577; tell H5046 me [fn]how H4100 you may be bound H631.” And he said H559 to her, “If H518 you weave H707 the seven H7651 locks H4253 of my [fn]hair H7218 with the [fn]web H4545 [fn][and fasten it with the pin, then I will be weak like any other man.”
When her master H113 got H6965 up H6965 in the morning H1242 and opened H6605 the doors H1817 of the house H1004 and went H3318 out H3318 to go H1980 on his way H1870, then behold H2009, his concubine H6370 was lying H5307 at the doorway H6607 of the house H1004 with her hands H3027 on the threshold H5592.
Then Samuel H8050 spoke H559 to all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478, saying H559, “If H518 you are returning H7725 to the LORD H3068 with all H3605 your heart H3824, then remove H5493 the foreign H5236 gods H430 and the Ashtaroth H6252 from among H8432 you, and direct H3559 your hearts H3824 to the LORD H3068 and serve H5647 Him alone H905; and He will save H5337 you from the hand H3027 of the Philistines H6430.”
Then Saul H7586 became H2734 very H3966 angry H2734, for this H2088 lyric H1697 [fn]displeased H7489 H5869 him; and he said H559, “They have given H5414 David H1732 credit for ten H7233 thousands H7233, but to me they have given H5414 credit for only thousands H505! Now what more H5750 can he have but the kingdom H4410?”
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.
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.
But his servants H5650 said H559 to him, “Behold H2009 now H4994, we have heard H8085 that the kings H4428 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 are merciful H2617 kings H4428. Please H4994 let's put H7760 sackcloth H8242 [fn]around our waists H4975 and ropes H2256 on our heads H7218, and go H3318 out H3318 to the king H4428 of Israel H3478; perhaps H194 he will let H2421 [fn]you live H2421.”
Now one man H376 drew H4900 his bow H7198 at random H8537 and struck H5221 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 [fn]in a joint H1694 of the armor H8302. So he said H559 to the driver H7395 of H7395 his chariot H7395, “Turn H2015 [fn]around H3027 and take H3318 me out H3318 of the battle H4264, for I am H2470 severely H2470 wounded H2470.”
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.
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.
Now the acts H1697 of Rehoboam H7346, from the first H7223 to the last H314, are they not written H3789 in the [fn]records H1697 of Shemaiah H8098 the prophet H5030 and of Iddo H5714 the seer H2374, according to genealogical H3187 enrollment H3187? And there were wars H4421 between Rehoboam H7346 and Jeroboam H3379 continually H3605 H3117.
The Levites H3881 and all H3605 Judah H3063 did H6213 according to all H3605 that Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 commanded H6680. And each H376 one H376 of them took H3947 his men H376 who were to come H935 in H935 on the Sabbath H7676, with those who were to go H3318 out H3318 on the Sabbath H7676, for Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 did not dismiss H6362 any of the divisions H4256.
Then the Spirit H7307 of God H430 [fn]covered H3847 Zechariah H2148, the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 like H3847 clothing H3847; and he stood H5975 above H4480 H5921 the people H5971 and said H559 to them, “This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 God H430 has said H559, ‘Why H4100 do you break H5674 the commandments H4687 of the LORD H3068 and do not prosper H6743? Because H3588 you have abandoned H5800 the LORD H3068, He has also abandoned H5800 you.'”
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.
Then Hezekiah H2396 said H559, “Now H6258 that you have [fn]consecrated H4390 H3027 yourselves H3027 to the LORD H3068, come H5066 forward H5066 and bring H935 sacrifices H2077 and thanksgiving H8426 offerings H8426 to the house H1004 of the LORD H3068.” So the assembly H6951 brought H935 sacrifices H2077 and thanksgiving H8426 offerings H8426, and everyone H3605 who was [fn]willing H5081 H3820 brought burnt H5930 offerings H5930.
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.
And Hezekiah H2396 appointed 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 serve H8334 and to give H3034 thanks H3034 and to praise H1984 in the gates H8179 of the camp H4264 of the LORD H3068.
So Hilkiah H2518 and those [fn]whom H834 the king H4428 had told went H1980 to Huldah H2468 the prophetess H5031, the wife H802 of Shallum H7967 the son H1121 of [fn]Tokhath H8445, the son H1121 of Hasrah H2641, the keeper H8104 of the wardrobe H899 (she lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389 in the Second H4932 Quarter); and they spoke H1696 to her regarding this H2088.
“This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539 says H559: ‘The LORD H3068, the God H430 of heaven H8064, has given H5414 me all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776, and He has appointed H6485 me to rebuild H1129 for Him a house H1004 in Jerusalem H3389, which H834 is in Judah H3063.
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.
When I entered H935 the house H1004 of Shemaiah H8098 the son H1121 of Delaiah H1806, son H1121 of Mehetabel H4105, who H1931 was confined H6113 at home, he said H559, “Let's meet H3259 together H3259 in the house H1004 of God H430, within H8432 the temple H1964, and let's close H5462 the doors H1817 of the temple H1964, for they are coming H935 to kill H2026 you, and they are coming H935 to kill H2026 you at night H3915.”
“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.
And it came H1961 about H1961 that just H834 as H834 it became H6751 dark H6751 at the gates H8179 of Jerusalem H3389 before H6440 the Sabbath H7676, I ordered H559 that the doors H1817 be shut H5462, [fn]and that they were not to open H6605 them until H5704 after H310 the Sabbath H7676. Then I stationed H5975 some of my servants H5288 at the gates H8179 so that no H3808 load H4853 would enter H935 on the Sabbath H7676 day H3117.
The king H4428 loved H157 Esther H635 more H4480 than H4480 all H3605 the women H802, and she found H5375 favor H2580 and kindness H2617 with him more H4480 than H4480 all H3605 the virgins H1330, so that he set H7760 the royal H4438 turban H3804 on her head H7218 and made H4427 her queen H4427 in H8478 place H8478 of H8478 Vashti H2060.
Now it came H1961 about H1961 on the third H7992 day H3117 that Esther H635 put H3847 on H3847 her royal H4438 robes H3847 and stood H5975 in the inner H6442 courtyard H2691 of the king's H4428 palace H1004 in front H5227 of the king's H4428 [fn]rooms H1004, and the king H4428 was sitting H3427 on his royal H4438 throne H3678 in the [fn]throne H4438 room H1004, opposite H5227 the entrance H6607 to the palace H1004.
Then I looked H7200 again H7725 at all H3605 the acts H6217 of H6217 oppression H6217 which H834 were being done H6213 under H8478 the sun H8121. And behold H2009, I saw the tears H1832 of the oppressed H6231 and that they had H369 no H369 one H369 to comfort H5162 them; and power H3581 was on the side H3027 of their oppressors H6231, but they had H369 no H369 one H369 to comfort H5162 them.
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.
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.
They will swoop H5774 down H5774 on the slopes H3802 of the Philistines H6430 on the west H3220;
Together H3162 they will plunder H962 the [fn]people H1121 of the east H6924;
[fn]They will possess H4916 H3027 Edom H123 and Moab H4124,
And the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983 will be [fn]subject H4928 to them.
For the fields H7709 of Heshbon H2809 have [fn]withered H535, the vines H1612 of Sibmah H7643 as well;
The lords H1167 of the nations H1471 have trampled H1986 down H1986 its choice H8291 clusters H8291
Which reached H5060 as far H5704 as Jazer H3270 and wandered H8582 to the deserts H4057;
Its [fn]tendrils H7976 spread H5203 themselves out H5203 and passed H5674 over H5674 the sea H3220.
For a fool H5036 speaks H1696 nonsense H5039,
And his heart H3820 [fn]inclines H6213 toward wickedness H205:
To practice H6213 ungodliness H2612 and to speak H1696 error H8442 against H413 the LORD H3068,
To [fn]keep H7324 the hungry H7457 person H5315 unsatisfied H7324
And [fn]to withhold H2637 drink H4945 from the thirsty H6771.
One who walks H1980 righteously H6666 and speaks H1696 with integrity H4339,
One who rejects H3988 [fn]unjust H1215 H4642 gain H1215
And shakes H5287 his hands H3709 so H4480 that H4480 they hold H8551 no H4480 bribe H7810;
One who stops H331 his ears H241 from hearing H8085 about bloodshed H1818
And shuts H6105 his eyes H5869 from looking H7200 at H7200 evil H7451;
“Therefore their inhabitants H3427 were [fn]powerless H7116 H3027,
They were shattered H2865 and put H954 to H954 shame H954;
They were like the vegetation H6212 of the field H7704 and the green H3419 grass H1877,
Like grass H2682 on the housetops H1406 [fn]that is scorched H7710 before H6440 it has grown H7054.
He says H559, “It is H7043 too H4480 [fn]small H7043 a thing H7043 that You should be My Servant H5650
To raise H6965 up H6965 the tribes H7626 of Jacob H3290 and to restore H7725 the protected H5336 ones of Israel H3478;
I will also make H5414 You a light H216 [fn]of the nations H1471
So that My salvation H3444 may [fn]reach H1961 to the end H7097 of the earth H776.”
This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559:
“Behold H2009, I will lift H5375 up H5375 My hand H3027 to the nations H1471
And set H7311 up H7311 My flag H5251 to the peoples H5971;
And they will bring H935 your sons H1121 [fn]in their arms H2684,
And your daughters H1323 will be carried H5375 on their shoulders H3802.
“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.”
That you have forgotten H7911 the LORD H3068 your Maker H6213,
Who stretched H5186 out H5186 the heavens H8064
And laid H3245 the foundations H3245 of the earth H776,
That you fear H6342 continually H8548 all H3605 day H3117 long because H4480 H6440 of the fury H2534 of the oppressor H6693,
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,
I will make H2142 mention H2142 of the mercies H2617 of the LORD H3068, and the praises H8416 of the LORD H3068,
According H5921 to all H3605 that the LORD H3068 has granted H1580 us,
And the great H7227 goodness H2898 toward the house H1004 of Israel H3478,
Which H834 He has granted H1580 them according to His compassion H7356
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.”
“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,
“How H349 can you say H559, ‘I am not defiled H2930,
I have not gone H1980 after H310 the Baals H1168'?
Look H7200 at your way H1870 in the valley H1516!
Know H3045 what H4100 you have done H6213!
You are a swift H7031 young H1072 camel H1072 running H8308 about H8308 senselessly H8308 on her ways H1870,
‘Only H389 [fn]acknowledge H3045 your wrongdoing H5771,
That you have revolted H6586 against the LORD H3068 your God H430,
And have scattered H6340 your [fn]favors H1870 to the strangers H2114 under H8478 every H3605 leafy H7488 tree H6086,
And you have not obeyed H8085 My voice H6963,' declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
For I heard H8085 a voice H6963 cry as of a woman in H2342 labor H2342,
The anguish H6869 as of one giving H1069 birth H1069 to H1069 her H1069 first H1069 child H1069.
The voice H6963 of the daughter H1323 of Zion H6726 gasping H3306 for H3306 breath H3306,
Stretching H6566 out H6566 her [fn]hands H3709, saying,
“Ah H4994, woe H188 to me, for [fn]I faint H5888 before murderers H2026.”
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,
“They will devour H398 your harvest H7105 and your food H3899;
They will devour H398 your sons H1121 and your daughters H1323;
They will devour H398 your flocks H6629 and your herds H1241;
They will devour H398 your vines H1612 and your fig H8384 trees H8384;
They will demolish H7567 your fortified H4013 cities H5892, in which H834 you trust H982, with the sword H2719.
“I will take H5375 up H5375 a weeping H1065 and wailing H5092 for the mountains H2022,
And for the pastures H4999 of the wilderness H4057 a song H7015 of H7015 mourning H7015,
Because H3588 they are laid H5327 waste H5327 so H4480 H1097 that no H1097 one H376 passes H5674 through H5674,
And the sound H6963 of the livestock H4735 is not heard H8085;
Both H4480 the birds H5775 of the sky H8064 and the animals H929 have fled H5074; they are gone H1980.
The word H1697 that came H1961 to Jeremiah H3414 from the LORD H3068, when Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 and all H3605 his army H2428, with all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776 that were under his [fn]control H4475 and all H3605 the peoples H5971, were fighting H3898 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389 and all H3605 its cities H5892, saying H559,
‘They are also going to bring H3318 out H3318 all H3605 your wives H802 and your sons H1121 to the Chaldeans H3778, and you yourself H859 will not escape H4422 from their hand H3027, but will be seized H8610 by the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, and this H2088 city H5892 will be burned H8313 with fire H784.'”
Sharpen H1305 the arrows H2671, fill H4390 the quivers H7982!
The LORD H3068 has stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of the kings H4428 of the Medes H4074,
Because H3588 His plan H4209 is against H5921 Babylon H894 to destroy H7843 it;
For it is the vengeance H5360 of the LORD H3068, vengeance H5360 for His temple H1964.
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.
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.
For this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: “How H637 much H637 more H637 H3588 when H3588 I send H7971 My four H702 [fn]severe H7451 judgments H8201 against H413 Jerusalem H3389: sword H2719, famine H7458, vicious H7451 animals H2416, and plague H1698 to eliminate H3772 human H120 and animal H929 life from it!
“Then I passed H5674 by you and saw H7200 you, and behold H2009, [fn]you were at the time H6256 for love H1730; so I spread H6566 My [fn]garment H3671 over H5921 you and covered H3680 your nakedness H6172. I also swore H7650 an H7650 oath H7650 to you and entered H935 into a covenant H1285 with you so that you became H1961 Mine,” declares H5002 the Lord H136 GOD H3068.
“But when a righteous H6662 person H6662 turns H7725 away H7725 from his righteousness H6666, commits H6213 injustice H5766 and does H6213 according to all H3605 the abominations H8441 that the wicked H7563 person H7563 does H6213, will he live H2421? All H3605 his righteous H6666 deeds H6666 which H834 he has done H6213 will not be remembered H2142 for his treachery H4603 H4604 which H834 he has committed H4603 and his sin H2403 which H834 he has committed H2398; for them he will die H4191.
“Therefore H3651, this H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 GOD H3068 says H559: ‘Because H3282 you have made H2142 your guilt H5771 known H2142, in that your offenses H6588 are uncovered H1540, so that in all H3605 your deeds H5949 your sins H2403 are seen H7200—because H3282 you have come H2142 to H2142 mind H2142, you will be seized H8610 by the hand H3709.
“You were in Eden H5731, the garden H1588 of God H430;
Every H3605 precious H3368 stone H68 was your covering H4540:
The ruby H124, the topaz H6357 and the diamond H3095;
The beryl H8658, the onyx H7718 and the jasper H3471;
The lapis H5601 lazuli H5601, the turquoise H5306 and the emerald H1304;
And the gold H2091, the workmanship H4399 of your [fn]settings H8596 and [fn]sockets H5345,
Was in you.
On the day H3117 that you were created H1254
They were prepared H3559.
“I will put H5414 hooks H2397 in your jaws H3895
And make the fish H1710 of your [fn]canals H2975 cling H1692 to your scales H7193.
And I will bring H5927 you up H5927 out of the midst H8432 of your [fn]canals H2975,
And all H3605 the fish H1710 of your [fn]canals H2975 will cling H1692 to your scales H7193.
“Then those who inhabit H3427 the cities H5892 of Israel H3478 will go H3318 out H3318 and make H1197 fires H1197 with the weapons H5402 and burn H5400 them, both [fn]bucklers H4043 and shields H6793, bows H7198 and arrows H2671, war H3027 clubs H4731 and spears H7420, and for seven H7651 years H8141 they will make H1197 fires H784 of them.
“But the Levitical H3881 priests H3548, the sons H1121 of Zadok H6659, who H834 [fn]took H8104 responsibility H4931 for My sanctuary H4720 when the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 went H8582 astray H8582 from Me, shall come H7126 near H7126 to Me to serve H8334 Me; and they shall stand H5975 before H6440 Me to offer H7126 Me the fat H2459 and the blood H1818,” declares H5002 the Lord H136 GOD H3068.
“And the prince H5387 shall have land on either H2088 side H2088 of the holy H6944 [fn]allotment H8641 and the [fn]property H272 of the city H5892, adjacent H413 H6440 to the holy H6944 [fn]allotment H8641 and the [fn]property H272 of the city H5892, on the west H3220 side H6285 toward the west H3220 and on the east H6924 side H6285 toward the east H6921, and in length H753 comparable H5980 to one H259 of the portions H2506, from the west H3220 border H1366 to the east H6921 border H1366.
‘This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 says H559: “The gate H8179 of the inner H6442 courtyard H2691 facing H6437 east H6921 shall be shut H5462 for the six H8337 working H4639 days H3117; but it shall be opened H6605 on the Sabbath H7676 day H3117 and opened H6605 on the day H3117 of the new H2320 moon H2320.
“This H3652 is H3652 what H3652 he said H560: ‘The fourth H7244 beast H2423 will be a fourth H7244 kingdom H4437 on the earth H772 which H1768 will be different H8133 from all H3606 the other kingdoms H4437, and will devour H399 the whole H3606 earth H772 and trample H1759 it down H1759 and crush H1855 it.
“Seventy H7657 [fn]weeks H7620 have been decreed H2852 for your people H5971 and your holy H6944 city H5892, to [fn]finish H3615 the wrongdoing H6588, to [fn]make H8552 an H8552 end H8552 of H8552 sin H2403, to make H3722 atonement H3722 for guilt H5771, to bring H935 in H935 everlasting H5769 righteousness H6664, to seal H2856 up H2856 vision H2377 and [fn]prophecy H5030, and to anoint H4886 the Most H6944 Holy H6944 Place H6944.
“And I will destroy H8074 her vines H1612 and fig H8384 trees H8384,
Of which H834 she said H559, ‘They are my wages H866 for H866 prostitution H866
Which H834 my lovers H157 have given H5414 me.'
And I will turn H7760 them into a forest H3293,
And the animals H2416 of the field H7704 will devour H398 them.
“Then I will give H5414 her her vineyards H3754 from there H8033,
And the [fn]Valley H6010 of Achor H5911 as a door H6607 of hope H8615.
And she will [fn]respond H6030 there H8033 as in the days H3117 of her youth H5271,
As in the day H3117 when she went H5927 up H5927 from the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
They offer H2076 sacrifices H2076 on the tops H7218 of the mountains H2022
And [fn]burn H6999 incense H6999 on the hills H1389,
Under H8478 oak H437, poplar H3839, and terebinth H424,
Because H3588 their shade H6738 is pleasant H2896.
Therefore H5921 H3651 your daughters H1323 play H2181 the H2181 prostitute H2181,
I will not punish H6485 your daughters H1323 when H3588 they play H2181 the H2181 prostitute H2181,
Or your [fn]brides H3618 when H3588 they commit H5003 adultery H5003,
Because H3588 the men themselves H1992 slip H6504 away H6504 with the prostitutes H2185
And offer H2076 sacrifices H2076 with temple H6945 prostitutes H6945;
So the people H5971 without H3808 understanding H995 are ruined H3832.
Though H3588 he flourishes H6509 among H996 the [fn]reeds H260,
An east H6921 wind H6921 will come H935,
The wind H7307 of the LORD H3068 coming H5927 up H5927 from the wilderness H4057;
And his fountain H4726 will become H3001 dry H3001
And his spring H4599 will dry H2717 up H2717;
It will plunder H8154 his treasury H214 of every H3605 precious H2532 article H3627.
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.
“I sent H7971 a plague H1698 among you [fn]as in Egypt H4714;
I killed H2026 your young H970 men H970 with the sword H2719, along H5973 with H5973 your captured H7628 horses H5483,
And I made the stench H889 of your camp H4264 rise H5927 up H5927 in your nostrils H639;
Yet you have not returned H7725 to Me,” declares H5002 the LORD H3068.
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?
The Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 has sworn H7650 by Himself H5315, the LORD H3068 God H430 of armies H6635 has declared H5002:
“I loathe H8374 the arrogance H1347 of Jacob H3290,
And [fn]detest H8130 his citadels H759;
Therefore I will give H5462 up H5462 the city H5892 and [fn]all H4393 it contains H4393.”
“Then I will turn H2015 your festivals H2282 into mourning H60,
And all H3605 your songs H7892 into songs H7015 of H7015 mourning H7015;
And I will put H5927 sackcloth H8242 around H5921 everyone's H3605 waist H4975,
And [fn]baldness H7144 on every H3605 head H7218.
And I will make H7760 it like a time of mourning H60 for an only H3173 son H3173,
And the end H319 of it will be like a bitter H4751 day H3117.
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.
This H2088 is the presumptuous H5947 city H5892
That dwells H3427 securely H983,
Who says H559 in her heart H3824,
“I am, and there H657 is no H657 one H657 besides H5750 me.”
How H349 she has become H1961 a desolation H8047,
A resting H4769 place H4769 for animals H2416!
“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.
Then the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559, “LORD H3068 of armies H6635, how H4970 long H5704 H4970 will You take H7355 no H3808 pity H7355 on H7355 Jerusalem H3389 and the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, with which H834 You have been H2194 indignant H2194 for these H2088 seventy H7657 years H8141?”
“Then I will come H7126 near H7126 to you for judgment H4941; and I will be a swift H4116 witness H5707 against the sorcerers H3784, the adulterers H5003, against those who swear H7650 falsely H8267, those who [fn]oppress H6231 the wage H7916 earner H7916 in his wages H7939 or the widow H490 or the [fn]orphan H3490, and those who turn H5186 away H5186 the stranger H1616 from justice and do not [fn]fear H3372 Me,” says H559 the LORD H3068 of armies H6635.
