“O Yahweh ^H3068, bless ^H1288 his substance ^H2428,

And accept ^H7521 the work ^H6467 of his hands ^H3027;

Crush ^H4272 the loins ^H4975 of those who rise ^H6965 up ^H6965 against him,

And those who hate ^H8130 him, so ^H4480 that ^H4480 they will not ^H4480 rise ^H6965 again.”

“Now you also ^H1571 know ^H3045 what ^H834 Joab ^H3097 the son ^H1121 of Zeruiah ^H6870 did ^H6213 to me, what ^H834 he did ^H6213 to the two ^H8147 commanders ^H8269 of the armies ^H6635 of Israel ^H3478, to Abner ^H74 the son ^H1121 of Ner ^H5369, and to Amasa ^H6021 the son ^H1121 of Jether ^H3500, whom he killed ^H2026; he also [fn]shed ^H7760 the blood ^H1818 of war ^H4421 in peace ^H7965. And he put ^H5414 the blood ^H1818 of war ^H4421 on his belt ^H2290 [fn]about his [fn]waist ^H4975, and on his sandals ^H5275 [fn]on his feet ^H7272.

Then his servants ^H5650 said ^H559 to him, “Behold ^H2009 now ^H4994, we have heard ^H8085 that the kings ^H4428 of the house ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478 are kings ^H4428 of lovingkindness ^H2617, please ^H4994 let us put ^H7760 sackcloth ^H8242 on our loins ^H4975 and ropes ^H2256 on our heads ^H7218, and go ^H3318 out ^H3318 to the king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478; perhaps ^H194 he will preserve ^H2421 your [fn]life ^H5315.”

Then he said ^H559 to Gehazi ^H1522, “Gird ^H2296 up your loins ^H4975 and take ^H3947 my staff ^H4938 in your hand ^H3027, and go ^H1980; if ^H3588 you meet ^H4672 anyone ^H376, do not [fn]greet ^H1288 him, and if ^H3588 anyone ^H376 [fn]greets ^H1288 you, do not answer ^H6030 him; and lay ^H7760 my staff ^H4938 on the boy’s ^H5288 face ^H6440.”

Now Elisha ^H477 the prophet ^H5030 called ^H7121 one ^H259 of the sons ^H1121 of the prophets ^H5030 and said ^H559 to him, “Gird ^H2296 up your loins ^H4975, and take ^H3947 this ^H2088 flask ^H6378 of oil ^H8081 in your hand ^H3027 and go ^H1980 to Ramoth-gilead ^H7433.

“He opens ^H6605 the [fn]bond ^H4147 of kings ^H4428

And binds ^H631 their loins ^H4975 with a belt ^H232.

“Behold ^H2009 now ^H4994, its power ^H3581 in its loins ^H4975

And its vigor ^H202 in the muscles ^H8306 of its belly ^H990.

You brought ^H935 us into the net ^H4686;

You established ^H7760 an oppressive ^H4157 burden ^H4157 upon our loins ^H4975.

May their eyes ^H5869 darken ^H2821 so ^H4480 that ^H4480 they cannot ^H4480 see ^H7200,

And make their loins ^H4975 quake ^H4571 continually ^H8548.

The [fn]strutting ^H2223 H4975 rooster ^H2223, the male ^H8495 goat ^H8495 also ^H176,

And a king ^H4428 when his army ^H510 is with him.

Heth

She girds ^H2296 [fn]herself ^H4975 with strength ^H5797

And makes ^H553 her arms ^H2220 strong ^H553.

Also righteousness ^H6664 will be the belt ^H232 about His loins ^H4975,

And faithfulness ^H530 the belt ^H232 about His waist ^H2504.

For ^H5921 this ^H5921 H3651 reason ^H5921 H3651 my loins ^H4975 are full ^H4390 of anguish ^H2479;

Pains ^H6735 have seized ^H270 me like the pains ^H6735 of a woman in ^H3205 labor ^H3205.

I am so ^H4480 bewildered ^H5753 I cannot ^H4480 hear ^H8085, so ^H4480 terrified ^H926 I cannot ^H4480 see ^H7200.

Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 to Cyrus ^H3566 His anointed ^H4899,

Whom ^H834 I have taken ^H2388 hold ^H2388 of by his right ^H3225 hand ^H3225,

To subdue ^H7286 nations ^H1471 before ^H6440 him

And [fn]to loose ^H6605 the loins ^H4975 of kings ^H4428,

To open ^H6605 doors ^H1817 before ^H6440 him so that gates ^H8179 will not be shut ^H5462:

Thus ^H3541 Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559 to me, “Go ^H1980 and buy ^H7069 yourself a linen ^H6593 belt ^H232 and put ^H7760 it around ^H5921 your loins ^H4975, but do not put ^H935 it in water ^H4325.”

Then behold ^H2009, the man ^H376 clothed ^H3847 in linen ^H906 at whose ^H834 loins ^H4975 was the scribe’s [fn]case ^H7083 responded ^H7725 with a word ^H1697, saying ^H559, “I have done ^H6213 just ^H834 as You have commanded ^H6680 me.”

“When they seized ^H8610 you with the hand ^H3709,

You tore ^H7533 and split ^H1234 open all ^H3605 their [fn]shoulders ^H3802;

And when they leaned ^H8172 on you,

You broke ^H7665 and made all ^H3605 their loins ^H4975 [fn]quake ^H5975.”

“Then I will overturn ^H2015 your feasts ^H2282 into mourning ^H60

And all ^H3605 your songs ^H7892 into [fn]lamentation ^H7015;

And I will bring ^H5927 up ^H5927 sackcloth ^H8242 on everyone’s ^H3605 loins ^H4975

And baldness ^H7144 on every ^H3605 head ^H7218.

And I will make ^H7760 it like a time of mourning ^H60 for an only ^H3173 son ^H3173,

And the end ^H319 of it will be like a bitter ^H4751 day ^H3117.

[fn]The one ^H4650 who ^H4650 scatters ^H4650 has come ^H5927 up ^H5927 against ^H5921 [fn]you.

Guard ^H5341 the fortification ^H4694, watch ^H6822 the road ^H1870;

Strengthen ^H2388 your loins ^H4975, [fn]instill ^H553 your power ^H3581 with exceeding ^H3966 courage ^H553.

She is emptied ^H950! Yes, she is emptied ^H4003 out and eviscerated ^H1110!

Hearts ^H3820 are melting ^H4549 and knees ^H1290 knocking ^H6375!

Also anguish ^H2479 is in all their loins ^H4975,

And all ^H3605 their faces ^H6440 [fn]turn ^H6908 pale ^H6289!
