Lexicon :: Strong's H4791 - mārôm

The people of Zebulun defied death,

Naphtali also, on the heights of the battlefield.

He reached down from on high

and took hold of me;

he pulled me out of deep water.

“Who is it you mocked and blasphemed?

Against whom have you raised your voice

and lifted your eyes in pride?

Against the Holy One of Israel!

He sets the lowly on high,

and mourners are lifted to safety.

Even now my witness is in heaven,

and my advocate is in the heights!

Dominion and dread belong to him,

the one who establishes harmony in his heights.

For what portion would I have from God above,

or what inheritance from the Almighty on high?

When she proudly[fn] spreads her wings,

she laughs at the horse and its rider.

Let the assembly of peoples gather around you;

take your seat on high over it.

His ways are always secure;[fn]

your lofty judgments have no effect on him;[fn]

he scoffs at all his adversaries.

He reached down from on high

and took hold of me;

he pulled me out of deep water.

My adversaries trample me all day,

for many arrogantly fight against me.[fn]

You ascended to the heights, taking away captives;

you received gifts from[fn] people,

even from the rebellious,

so that the LORD God might dwell there.[fn]

Your righteousness reaches the heights, God,

you who have done great things;

God, who is like you?

They mock, and they speak maliciously;

they arrogantly threaten oppression.

“Do not lift up your horn against heaven[fn]

or speak arrogantly.’ ”

But you, LORD, are exalted forever.

Greater than the roar of a huge torrent —

the mighty breakers of the sea —

the LORD on high is majestic.

He looked down from his holy heights —

the LORD gazed out from heaven to earth —

Reach down[fn] from on high;

rescue me from deep water, and set me free

from the grasp of foreigners

Hallelujah!

Praise the LORD from the heavens;

praise him in the heights.

At the heights overlooking the road,

at the crossroads, she takes her stand.

She has sent out her female servants;

she calls out from the highest points of the city:

She sits by the doorway of her house,

on a seat at the highest point of the city,

The fool is appointed to great heights,

but the rich remain in lowly positions.

“What are you doing here? Who authorized you to carve out a tomb for yourself here, carving your tomb on the height and cutting a resting place for yourself out of rock?

The earth mourns and withers;

the world wastes away and withers;

the exalted people of the earth waste away.

Whoever flees at the sound of panic

will fall into a pit,

and whoever escapes from the pit

will be caught in a trap.

For the floodgates on high are opened,

and the foundations of the earth are shaken.

On that day the LORD will punish

the army of the heights in the heights

and the kings of the ground on the ground.

For he has humbled those who live in lofty places —

an inaccessible city.

He brings it down; he brings it down to the ground;

he throws it to the dust.

until the Spirit[fn] from on high is poured out on us.

Then the desert will become an orchard,

and the orchard will seem like a forest.

The LORD is exalted, for he dwells on high;

he has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.

he will dwell on the heights;

his refuge will be the rocky fortresses,

his food provided, his water assured.

“Who is it you have mocked and blasphemed?

Against whom have you raised your voice

and lifted your eyes in pride?

Against the Holy One of Israel!

I chirp like a swallow or a crane;

I moan like a dove.

My eyes grow weak looking upward.

Lord, I am oppressed; support me.

Look up and see!

Who created these?

He brings out the stars by number;

he calls all of them by name.

Because of his great power and strength,

not one of them is missing.

For the High and Exalted One,

who lives forever, whose name is holy, says this:

“I live in a high and holy place,

and with the oppressed and lowly of spirit,

to revive the spirit of the lowly

and revive the heart of the oppressed.

“You fast with contention and strife

to strike viciously with your fist.

You cannot fast as you do today,

hoping to make your voice heard on high.

A glorious throne

on high from the beginning

is the place of our sanctuary.

“As for you, you are to prophesy all these things to them, and say to them:

The LORD roars from on high;

he makes his voice heard from his holy dwelling.

He roars loudly over his grazing land;

he calls out with a shout, like those who tread grapes,

against all the inhabitants of the earth.

They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion;

they will be radiant with joy

because of the LORD’s goodness,

because of the grain, the new wine, the fresh oil,

and because of the young of the flocks and herds.

Their life will be like an irrigated garden,

and they will no longer grow weak from hunger.

As to the terror you cause,[fn]

your arrogant heart has deceived you.

You who live in the clefts of the rock,[fn]

you who occupy the mountain summit,

though you elevate your nest like the eagles,

even from there I will bring you down.

This is the LORD’s declaration.

Even if Babylon should ascend to the heavens

and fortify her tall fortresses,

destroyers will come against her from me.

This is the LORD’s declaration.

He sent fire from on high into my bones;

he made it descend.[fn]

He spread a net for my feet

and turned me back.

He made me desolate,

sick all day long.

“I will plant it on Israel’s high mountain

so that it may bear branches, produce fruit,

and become a majestic cedar.

Birds of every kind will nest under it,

taking shelter in the shade of its branches.

“For on my holy mountain, Israel’s high mountain ​— ​the declaration of the Lord GOD ​— ​there the entire house of Israel, all of them, will serve me in the land. There I will accept them and will require your contributions and choicest gifts, all your holy offerings.

“I will tend them in good pasture, and their grazing place will be on Israel’s lofty mountains. There they will lie down in a good grazing place; they will feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel.

Your arrogant heart has deceived you,

you who live in clefts of the rock[fn][fn]

in your home on the heights,

who say to yourself,

“Who can bring me down to the ground? ”
