“Reuben ^H7205, you are my firstborn ^H1060;

My might ^H3581 and the beginning ^H7225 of my vigor ^H202,

[fn]Preeminent ^H3499 in dignity ^H7613 and [fn]preeminent ^H3499 in strength ^H5794.

“It shall not seem ^H7185 hard ^H7185 in your sight ^H5869 when you [fn]let ^H7971 him go ^H7971 to be free ^H2670 from you, for he has given ^H5647 you six ^H8337 years ^H8141 with [fn]double ^H4932 the service ^H7939 of a hired ^H7916 man ^H7916; so Yahweh ^H3068 your God ^H430 will bless ^H1288 you in whatever ^H3605 H834 you do ^H6213.

“Wise ^H2450 in heart ^H3824 and mighty ^H533 in power ^H3581,

Who ^H4310 has stiffened ^H7185 H413 his neck against Him and been at peace ^H7999?

“[fn]Yield ^H5532 now ^H4994 and be at peace ^H7999 with Him;

Thereby good ^H2896 will come ^H935 to you.

As for the deeds ^H6468 of men ^H120, by the word ^H1697 of Your lips ^H8193

I have kept ^H8104 from the paths ^H734 of the violent ^H6530.

You have caused Your people ^H5971 to see ^H7200 hardship ^H7186;

You have given ^H8248 us [fn]wine ^H3196 to ^H8248 drink ^H8248 that causes reeling ^H8653.

He who holds ^H2820 back ^H2820 his words ^H561 [fn]has ^H3045 knowledge ^H1847,

And he who has a cool ^H7119 spirit ^H7307 is a man ^H376 of discernment ^H8394.

He who would [fn]restrain ^H6845 her [fn]restrains ^H6845 the wind ^H7307,

And [fn]grasps ^H7122 oil ^H8081 with his right ^H3225 hand ^H3225.

How blessed ^H835 is the man ^H120 who is always ^H8548 in dread ^H6342,

But he who hardens ^H7185 his heart ^H3820 will fall ^H5307 into calamity ^H7451.

A slave ^H5650 will not be corrected ^H3256 by words ^H1697 alone;

For though he understands ^H995, there ^H369 will ^H369 be ^H369 no ^H369 answer ^H4617.

“Put ^H7760 me like a [fn]seal ^H2368 over ^H5921 your heart ^H3820,

Like a seal ^H2368 on your arm ^H2220.

For love ^H160 is as strong ^H5794 as death ^H4194,

[fn]Jealousy ^H7068 is as severe ^H7186 as Sheol ^H7585;

Its flashes ^H7565 are flashes ^H7565 of fire ^H784,

[fn]The very flame ^H7957 of [fn]Yah ^H3050.

And it will growl ^H5098 over ^H5921 it in that day ^H3117 like the roaring ^H5100 of the sea ^H3220.

If one looks ^H5027 to the land ^H776, behold ^H2009, there is darkness ^H2822 and distress ^H6862;

Even the light ^H216 is darkened ^H2821 by its clouds ^H6183.

“You are not to say ^H559, ‘It is a conspiracy ^H7195!’

In regard to all ^H3605 that this ^H2088 people ^H5971 call ^H559 a conspiracy ^H7195;

And you are not to fear ^H3372 [fn]what ^H4172 they fear ^H4172, and you shall not tremble ^H6206.

And it will be in the day ^H3117 when Yahweh ^H3068 gives ^H5117 you rest ^H5117 from your pain ^H6090 and turmoil ^H7267 and harsh ^H7186 slavery ^H5656 in which ^H834 you have been enslaved ^H5647,

“Moreover, I will deliver ^H5534 the Egyptians ^H4714 into the hand ^H3027 of a cruel ^H7186 master ^H113,

And a [fn]strong ^H5794 king ^H4428 will rule ^H4910 over them,” declares ^H5002 the Lord ^H136, Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635.

A harsh ^H7186 vision ^H2380 has been declared ^H5046 to me;

The treacherous ^H898 one still deals ^H898 treacherously ^H898, and the destroyer ^H7703 still destroys ^H7703.

Go ^H5927 up ^H5927, Elam ^H5867, lay ^H6696 siege ^H6696, Media ^H4074;

I have made ^H7673 an ^H7673 end ^H7673 of ^H7673 all ^H3605 [fn]the groaning ^H603 she has caused.

All ^H3605 your rulers ^H7101 have fled ^H5074 together ^H3162,

And have been captured ^H631 [fn]without ^H4480 the bow ^H7198;

All ^H3605 of you who were found ^H4672 were captured ^H631 together ^H3162,

[fn]Though they had fled ^H1272 far ^H7350 away ^H7350.

You contended ^H7378 with them [fn]by driving ^H5432 them away ^H5432, by making ^H7971 them forlorn ^H7971.

With His fierce ^H7186 wind ^H7307 He has expelled ^H1898 them on the day ^H3117 of the east ^H6921 wind ^H6921.

Behold ^H2009, the Lord ^H136 has a strong ^H2389 and courageous ^H533 agent;

As a storm ^H2230 of hail ^H1259, a tempest ^H8178 of destruction ^H6986,

Like a storm ^H2230 of mighty ^H3524 overflowing ^H7857 waters ^H4325,

He has set ^H5117 it down ^H5117 to the earth ^H776 with His hand ^H3027.

“Because ^H4480 I know ^H3045 that you are [fn]stiff ^H7186,

And your neck ^H6203 is an iron ^H1270 sinew ^H1517

And your forehead ^H4696 bronze ^H5154,

Near ^H7138 is the great ^H1419 day ^H3117 of Yahweh ^H3068,

Near ^H7138 and coming ^H4118 very ^H3966 quickly ^H4118;

O the sound ^H6963, the day ^H3117 of Yahweh ^H3068!

[fn]In it the mighty ^H1368 man ^H1368 cries ^H6873 out ^H6873 bitterly ^H4751.
