“Indeed ^H3588, ask ^H7592 now ^H4994 concerning the former ^H7223 days ^H3117 which ^H834 were before ^H6440 you, since ^H4480 the day ^H3117 that God ^H430 created ^H1254 [fn]man ^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?

“Remember ^H2142 the ancient ^H5769 days ^H3117,

Consider ^H995 the years ^H8141 from generation ^H1755 to ^H1755 generation ^H1755.

Ask ^H7592 your father ^H1, and he will declare ^H5046 to you,

Your elders ^H2205, and they will speak ^H559 to you.

Now it happened ^H1961 after ^H310 the death ^H4194 of Joshua ^H3091 that the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 asked ^H7592 of [fn]Yahweh ^H3068, saying ^H559, “Who ^H4310 shall go ^H5927 up ^H5927 first ^H8462 for us against ^H413 the Canaanites ^H3669, to fight ^H3898 against them?”

Then the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 arose ^H6965, went ^H5927 up ^H5927 to Bethel ^H1008, and asked ^H7592 of God ^H430 and said ^H559, “Who ^H4310 shall go ^H5927 up ^H5927 for us to begin ^H8462 the battle ^H4421 against ^H5973 the sons ^H1121 of Benjamin ^H1144?” Then Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559, “Judah ^H3063 shall begin ^H8462 it.”

Now it happened ^H1961 afterwards ^H310 H3651 that David ^H1732 asked ^H7592 of Yahweh ^H3068, saying ^H559, “Shall I go ^H5927 up ^H5927 to one ^H259 of the cities ^H5892 of Judah ^H3063?” And Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559 to him, “Go ^H5927 up ^H5927.” So David ^H1732 said ^H559, “Where ^H575 shall I go ^H5927 up ^H5927?” And He said ^H559, “To Hebron ^H2275.”

Then the king ^H4428 answered ^H6030 and said ^H559 to the woman ^H802, “Please ^H4994 do not hide ^H3582 anything ^H1697 from me that I am about to ask ^H7592 you.” And the woman ^H802 said ^H559, “Let my lord ^H113 the king ^H4428 please ^H4994 speak ^H1696.”

Moreover, Jehoshaphat ^H3092 said ^H559 to the king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478, “Please ^H4994 inquire ^H1875 [fn]first ^H3117 for the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068.”

Thus Saul ^H7586 died ^H4191 for his unfaithfulness ^H4604, which ^H834 he committed ^H4603 against Yahweh ^H3068, because ^H5921 of the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 which ^H834 he did not keep ^H8104; and also ^H1571 because he asked ^H7592 counsel of a medium ^H178, making ^H1875 inquiry ^H1875 of it,

“Please ^H4994 ask ^H7592 of past ^H7223 generations ^H1755,

And establish ^H3559 the things ^H2714 searched ^H2714 out ^H2714 by their fathers ^H1.

“But now ^H4994 ask ^H7592 the beasts ^H929, and let them instruct ^H3384 you;

And the birds ^H5775 of the sky ^H8064, and let them tell ^H5046 you.

For there ^H8033 our captors ^H7617 asked ^H7592 us about the words ^H1697 of a song ^H7892,

And our tormentors ^H8437 asked joyfully ^H8057, saying,

“Sing ^H7891 for us one of the songs ^H7892 of Zion ^H6726.”

Even ^H1571 an ignorant ^H191 fool ^H191, when he keeps ^H2790 silent ^H2790, is considered ^H2803 wise ^H2450;

When he closes ^H331 his lips ^H8193, he is considered understanding ^H995.

Do not say ^H559, “Why ^H4100 is it that the former ^H7223 days ^H3117 were better ^H2896 than ^H4480 these ^H428?”

For it is not from wisdom ^H2451 that you ask ^H7592 about ^H5921 this ^H2088.

“Then the spirit ^H7307 of the Egyptians ^H4714 will be emptied ^H1238 to destruction ^H1238 within ^H7130 them;

And I will confuse ^H1104 their counsel ^H6098,

So that they will seek ^H1875 idols ^H457 and ghosts ^H328 of ^H328 the ^H328 dead ^H328

And to [fn]mediums ^H178 and spiritists ^H3049.

Who go ^H1980 down ^H3381 to Egypt ^H4714—

But did not ^H3808 ask ^H7592 [fn]Me—

To find ^H5756 strength ^H5756 in the strong ^H4581 defense ^H4581 of Pharaoh ^H6547

And to take ^H2620 refuge ^H2620 in the shadow ^H6738 of Egypt ^H4714!

“I permitted Myself to be sought ^H1875 by those who did not ask ^H7592 for Me;

I permitted Myself to be found ^H4672 by those who did not seek ^H1245 Me.

I said ^H559, ‘Here ^H2009 am I, here ^H2009 am I,’

To a nation ^H1471 which did not call ^H7121 on My name ^H8034.

‘All ^H3605 your lovers ^H157 have forgotten ^H7911 you;

They do not seek ^H1875 you;

For I have [fn]wounded ^H5221 you with the wound ^H4347 of an enemy ^H340,

With the punishment ^H4148 of a cruel ^H394 one ^H394,

Because ^H5921 your iniquity ^H5771 is numerous ^H7230

And your sins ^H2403 are ^H6105 mighty ^H6105.

Now it happened in the seventh ^H7637 year ^H8141, in the fifth ^H2549 month, on the tenth ^H6218 of the month ^H2320, that [fn]some ^H376 of the elders ^H2205 of Israel ^H3478 came ^H935 to inquire ^H1875 of Yahweh ^H3068 and sat ^H3427 before ^H6440 me.
