Lexicon :: Strong's G4431 - ptōsis

“When you take a census of the Israelites to register them, each of the men must pay a ransom for his life to the LORD as they are registered. Then no plague will come on them as they are registered.

They angered the LORD with their deeds,

and a plague broke out against them.

A pronouncement concerning Damascus:

Look, Damascus is no longer a city.

It has become a ruined heap.

Wake yourself, wake yourself up!

Stand up, Jerusalem,

you who have drunk the cup of his fury

from the LORD’s hand;

you who have drunk the goblet to the dregs —

the cup that causes people to stagger.

This is what your Lord says —

the LORD, even your God,

who defends his people —

“Look, I have removed from your hand

the cup that causes staggering;

that goblet, the cup of my fury.

You will never drink it again.

Were they ashamed when they acted so detestably?

They weren’t at all ashamed.

They can no longer feel humiliation.

Therefore, they will fall among the fallen.

When I punish them, they will collapse,

says the LORD.

At the sound of their fall the earth will quake; the sound of her cry will be heard at the Red Sea.

This is what the Lord GOD says to Tyre: “Won’t the coasts and islands quake at the sound of your downfall, when the wounded groan and slaughter occurs within you?

“Now the coastlands tremble

on the day of your downfall;

the islands in the sea

are alarmed by your demise.’ ”

“Your wealth, merchandise, and goods,

your sailors and captains,

those who repair your leaks,

those who barter for your goods,

and all the warriors on board,

with all the other people within you,

sink into the heart of the sea

on the day of your downfall.

“All the birds of the sky nested on its fallen trunk, and all the animals of the field were among its boughs.

“I made the nations quake at the sound of its downfall, when I threw it down to Sheol to be with those who descend to the Pit. Then all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all the well-watered trees, were comforted in the underworld.

“I will cause many peoples to be appalled at you,

and their kings will shudder with fear because of you

when I brandish my sword in front of them.

On the day of your downfall

each of them will tremble

every moment for his life.

Charging horseman,

flashing sword,

shining spear;

heaps of slain,

mounds of corpses,

dead bodies without end —

they stumble over their dead.

This will be the plague with which the LORD strikes all the people who have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.

The same plague as the previous one will strike[fn] the horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the animals that are in those camps.

And if the people[fn] of Egypt will not go up and enter, then rain will not fall on them; this will be the plague the LORD inflicts on the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.
