Lexicon :: Strong's H7198 - qešeṯ

At the sound ^H6963 of the horseman ^H6571 and bowman ^H7411 H7198 every ^H3605 city ^H5892 flees ^H1272;

They go ^H935 into the thickets ^H5645 and climb ^H5927 up ^H5927 among the rocks ^H3710;

Every ^H3605 city ^H5892 is forsaken ^H5800,

And no ^H369 man ^H376 inhabits ^H3427 them.

“They take ^H2388 hold ^H2388 of bow ^H7198 and spear ^H3591;

They are cruel ^H394 and have ^H7355 no ^H3808 compassion ^H7355;

Their voice ^H6963 roars ^H1993 like the sea ^H3220,

And they ride ^H7392 on horses ^H5483,

Arranged ^H6186 as a man ^H376 for the battle ^H4421

Against ^H5921 you, O daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726!”

“They bend ^H1869 their tongue ^H3956 like their bow ^H7198;

Lies ^H8267 and unfaithfulness ^H530 prevail ^H1396 in the land ^H776,

For they go ^H3318 onward ^H3318 from evil ^H7451 to evil ^H7451,

And they do not know ^H3045 Me,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

Go ^H5927 up ^H5927, you horses ^H5483, and [fn]drive ^H1984 madly ^H1984, you chariots ^H7393,

That the mighty ^H1368 men ^H1368 may go ^H3318 forth ^H3318:

[fn]Ethiopia ^H3568 and [fn]Put ^H6316, who seize ^H8610 the shield ^H4043,

And the [fn]Lydians ^H3866, who seize ^H8610 and bend ^H1869 the bow ^H7198.

“Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635,

‘Behold ^H2009, I am going to break ^H7665 the bow ^H7198 of Elam ^H5867,

The [fn]finest ^H7225 of their might ^H1369.

“Arrange ^H6186 your battle ^H6186 lines ^H6186 against ^H5921 Babylon ^H894 on every ^H5439 side ^H5439,

All ^H3605 you who [fn]bend ^H1869 the bow ^H7198;

Shoot ^H3034 at her, do not be sparing ^H2550 with your arrows ^H2671,

For she has sinned ^H2398 against Yahweh ^H3068.

“Summon ^H8085 [fn]many ^H7227 against ^H413 Babylon ^H894,

All ^H3605 those who [fn]bend ^H1869 the bow ^H7198:

Encamp ^H2583 against ^H5921 her on every ^H5439 side ^H5439,

Let there be no ^H408 escape ^H6413[fn].

Repay ^H7999 her according to her work ^H6467;

According to all ^H3605 that she has done ^H6213, so do ^H6213 to her;

For she has become ^H2102 arrogant ^H2102 against ^H413 Yahweh ^H3068,

Against ^H413 the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478.

“They seize ^H2388 their bow ^H7198 and [fn]javelin ^H3591;

They are cruel ^H394 and have ^H7355 no ^H3808 compassion ^H7355.

Their voice ^H6963 roars ^H1993 like the sea ^H3220;

And they ride ^H7392 on horses ^H5483,

Arranged ^H6186 like a man ^H376 for the battle ^H4421

Against ^H5921 you, O daughter ^H1323 of Babylon ^H894.

“[fn]Let not [fn]him who [fn]bends ^H1869 his bow ^H7198 [fn]bend ^H1869 it,

[fn]Nor ^H408 let him rise ^H5927 up ^H5927 in his scale-armor ^H5630;

So do not spare ^H2550 her young ^H970 men ^H970;

Devote ^H2763 all ^H3605 her army ^H6635 to ^H2763 destruction ^H2763.

For the destroyer ^H7703 is coming ^H935 against ^H5921 her, against ^H5921 Babylon ^H894,

And her mighty ^H1368 men ^H1368 will be captured ^H3920;

Their bows ^H7198 are shattered ^H2865;

For Yahweh ^H3068 is a God ^H410 of recompense ^H1578,

He will fully ^H7999 repay ^H7999.

Daleth

He has bent ^H1869 His bow ^H7198 like an enemy ^H340;

He has set ^H5324 His right ^H3225 hand ^H3225 like an adversary ^H6862

And killed ^H2026 all ^H3605 that were desirable ^H4261 to the eye ^H5869;

In the tent ^H168 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726

He has poured ^H8210 out ^H8210 His wrath ^H2534 like fire ^H784.

He bent ^H1869 His bow ^H7198

And set ^H5324 me as a target ^H4307 for the arrow ^H2671.

“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 shields ^H4043 and large ^H6793 shields ^H6793, bows ^H7198 and arrows ^H2671, war ^H4731 clubs ^H4731 and spears ^H7420; and for seven ^H7651 years ^H8141 they will make ^H1197 fires ^H784 of them.

“And in that day ^H3117 I will cut ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 for them

With the beasts ^H2416 of the field ^H7704,

The birds ^H5775 of the sky ^H8064,

And the creeping ^H7431 things ^H7431 of the ground ^H127.

And I will break ^H7665 the bow ^H7198, the sword ^H2719, and war ^H4421 from the land ^H776,

And I will make them lie ^H7901 down ^H7901 in security ^H983.

They turn ^H7725, but not [fn]upward ^H5920;

They are like a deceitful ^H7423 bow ^H7198;

Their princes ^H8269 will fall ^H5307 by the sword ^H2719

Because ^H4480 of the [fn]indignation ^H2195 of their tongue ^H3956.

This ^H2097 will be their scoffing ^H3933 in the land ^H776 of Egypt ^H4714.

“He who grasps ^H8610 the bow ^H7198 will not stand ^H5975 his ground,

The swift ^H7031 of foot ^H7272 will not escape ^H4422,

Nor ^H3808 will he who rides ^H7392 the horse ^H5483 make ^H4422 his [fn]life ^H5315 escape ^H4422.

Your bow ^H7198 was made ^H6181 bare ^H6181;

Rods ^H4294 were sworn ^H7621 unto battle by word ^H561. Selah ^H5542.

You split ^H1234 the earth ^H776 with rivers ^H5104.

I will cut ^H3772 off ^H3772 the chariot ^H7393 from Ephraim ^H669

And the horse ^H5483 from Jerusalem ^H3389;

And the bow ^H7198 of war ^H4421 will be cut ^H3772 off ^H3772.

And He will speak ^H1696 peace ^H7965 to the nations ^H1471;

And His reign ^H4915 will be from sea ^H3220 to sea ^H3220

And from the [fn]River ^H5104 to the ends ^H657 of the earth ^H776.

For I will bend ^H1869 Judah ^H3063 [fn]as My bow ^H7198;

I will fill ^H4390 the bow ^H7198 with Ephraim ^H669.

And I will rouse ^H5782 up ^H5782 your sons ^H1121, O Zion ^H6726, against ^H5921 your sons ^H1121, O [fn]Greece ^H3120;

And I will make ^H7760 you like a mighty ^H1368 man’s ^H1368 sword ^H2719.

“From [fn]them will come ^H3318 the cornerstone ^H6438,

From [fn]them the tent ^H3489 peg ^H3489,

From [fn]them the bow ^H7198 of [fn]battle ^H4421,

From [fn]them every ^H3605 good [fn]taskmaster ^H5065, all of them together ^H3162.
