Lexicon :: Strong's H5034 - nāḇēl

“But Jeshurun (Israel) became fat and kicked [at God].

You became fat, thick, sleek, and obstinate!

Then he abandoned God who had made him,

And scorned the Rock of his salvation.

“Foreigners lose heart;

They come trembling out of their strongholds.

“But as a mountain, if it falls, crumbles into nothing,

And as the rock is moved from its place,

And he will be like a tree firmly planted [and fed] by streams of water,

Which yields its fruit in its season;

Its leaf does not wither;

And in whatever he does, he prospers [and comes to maturity].

Foreigners lose heart,

And come trembling out of their strongholds.

For they will wither quickly like the grass,

And fade like the green herb.

If you have foolishly exalted yourself,

Or if you have plotted evil, put your hand on your mouth.

For you will be like an oak whose leaf withers and dies

And like a garden that has no water.

Woe (judgment is coming) to [Samaria] the splendid crown of the drunkards of [fn]Ephraim,

And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty,

Which is at the head of the rich valley

Of those who are overcome with wine!

And the fading flower of its glorious beauty,

Which is at the head of the rich valley,

Will be like the early fig before the summer,

Which one sees,

And as soon as it is in his hand

He [greedily] swallows it [and so will the Assyrians rapidly devour Samaria, Israel’s capital].

All the host of heaven will be dissolved,

And the skies will be rolled up like a scroll;

All their hosts [the stars and the planets] will also wither away

As a leaf withers from the vine,

And as a fig withers from the fig tree.

The grass withers, the flower fades,

When the breath of the LORD blows upon it;

Most certainly [all] the people are [like] grass.

For we all have become like one who is [ceremonially] unclean [like a leper],

And all our deeds of righteousness are like filthy rags;

We all wither and decay like a leaf,

And our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing], like the wind, takes us away [carrying us far from God’s favor, toward destruction].

“I will gather and snatch them away [utterly consuming them],” says the LORD.

“There will be no grapes on the vine,

Nor figs on the fig tree,

And even the leaf will wither;

And the things that I have given them will pass away [by the hand of those whom I have appointed].”’”

Do not treat us with contempt and condemn us, for Your own name’s sake;

Do not disgrace Your [fn]glorious throne;

Remember [with consideration] and do not break Your [solemn] covenant with us.

For the son dishonors the father and treats him contemptuously,

The daughter rises up [in hostility] against her mother,

The daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—

A man’s enemies are the men (members) of his own household.

“I will throw filth on you

And make you vile and treat you with contempt,

And set you up as a spectacle.
