“In the days ^H3117 of Shamgar ^H8044 the son ^H1121 of Anath ^H6067,

In the days ^H3117 of Jael ^H3278, the paths ^H734 had ^H2308 ceased ^H2308,

So travelers ^H1980 H5410 [fn]went ^H1980 by [fn]roundabout ^H6128 paths ^H734.

“Those who were full ^H7649 hire ^H7936 themselves out ^H7936 for bread ^H3899,

But those who were hungry ^H7457 cease ^H2308 to hunger.

Even ^H5704 the barren ^H6135 gives ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to seven ^H7651,

But she who has many ^H7227 children ^H1121 languishes ^H535.

They came ^H935 to the land ^H776 of Zuph ^H6689. And Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 to his young ^H5288 man ^H5288 who ^H834 was with him, “Come ^H1980, and let us return ^H7725, lest ^H6435 my father ^H1 cease ^H2308 to be concerned about ^H4480 the donkeys ^H860 and become ^H1672 anxious ^H1672 for us.”

Then he came ^H935 to the king ^H4428, and the king ^H4428 said ^H559 to him, “Micaiah ^H4321, shall we go ^H1980 to Ramoth-gilead ^H7433 to battle ^H4421, or ^H518 shall we refrain ^H2308?” And he said ^H559 to him, “Go ^H5927 up ^H5927 and succeed ^H6743, and Yahweh ^H3068 will give ^H5414 it into the hand ^H3027 of the king ^H4428.”

Then he came ^H935 to the king ^H4428, and the king ^H4428 said ^H559 to him, “Micaiah ^H4318, shall we go ^H1980 to Ramoth-gilead ^H7433 to battle ^H4421, or ^H518 shall I refrain ^H2308?” And he said ^H559, “Go ^H5927 up ^H5927 and succeed ^H6743, and they will be given ^H5414 into your hand ^H3027.”

“There ^H8033 the wicked ^H7563 cease ^H2308 from raging ^H7267,

And there ^H8033 the weary ^H3019 of strength ^H3581 are ^H5117 at ^H5117 rest ^H5117.

“I have rejected ^H3988 everything; I will not live ^H2421 forever ^H5769.

Leave ^H2308 me alone ^H4480, for my days ^H3117 are but a breath ^H1892.

“Would He not cease ^H2308 for a few ^H4592 of my days ^H3117?

[fn]Withdraw ^H7896 from me that I may have ^H1082 a little ^H4592 cheer ^H1082

“Turn ^H8159 Your gaze ^H8159 from him that he may cease ^H2308 from toil,

Until ^H5704 he accepts ^H7521 his day ^H3117 like a hired ^H7916 man ^H7916.

“If ^H518 I speak ^H1696, my pain ^H3511 is not lessened ^H2820,

And if I cease ^H2308, what ^H4100 will go ^H1980 forth ^H1980 from me?

“My relatives ^H7138 have failed ^H2308,

And my familiar ^H3045 friends ^H3045 have forgotten ^H7911 me.

The words ^H1697 of his mouth ^H6310 are wickedness ^H205 and deceit ^H4820;

He has ceased ^H2308 to consider ^H7919 to do ^H3190 good ^H3190.

For the redemption ^H6306 price ^H6306 for their soul ^H5315 is ^H3365 costly ^H3365,

And it ceases ^H2308 forever ^H5769—

When there are many ^H7230 words ^H1697, transgression ^H6588 is unavoidable ^H2308 H3808,

But he who holds ^H2820 back ^H2820 his lips ^H8193 has insight ^H7919.

Cease ^H2308 listening ^H8085, my son ^H1121, to discipline ^H4148,

And you will stray ^H7686 from the words ^H561 of knowledge ^H1847.

Do not weary ^H3021 yourself to gain ^H6238 wealth ^H6238,

Because of your understanding ^H998, cease ^H2308!

“Wash ^H7364 yourselves, purify ^H2135 yourselves;

Remove ^H5493 the evil ^H7455 of your deeds ^H4611 from before My eyes ^H5048 H5869.

Cease ^H2308 to do evil ^H7489,

[fn]Stop ^H2308 regarding ^H2308 H4480 [fn]man ^H120, whose ^H834 breath ^H5397 of life is in his nostrils ^H639;

For [fn]why ^H4100 should he be esteemed ^H2803?

The joy ^H4885 of tambourines ^H8596 ceases ^H7673;

The rumbling ^H7588 of those exulting ^H5947 stops ^H2308;

The joy ^H4885 of the harp ^H3658 ceases ^H7673.

The mighty ^H1368 men ^H1368 of Babylon ^H894 have ceased ^H2308 fighting ^H3898;

They inhabit ^H3427 the strongholds ^H4679;

Their might ^H1369 is dried ^H5405 up;

They are becoming ^H1961 like women ^H802;

Their dwelling ^H4908 places ^H4908 are set ^H3341 on ^H3341 fire ^H3341;

The bars ^H1280 of her gates are broken ^H7665.
