So it will be that when ^H3588 the Lord ^H136 has completed ^H1214 all ^H3605 His work ^H4639 on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 and on Jerusalem ^H3389, He will say, “I will [fn]punish ^H6485 the fruit ^H6529 of the arrogant ^H1433 heart ^H3824 of the king ^H4428 of Assyria ^H804 and the pomp ^H8597 of his eyes ^H5869 which are raised ^H7312 high ^H7312.”

Therefore ^H3651 thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635, “O My people ^H5971 who inhabit ^H3427 Zion ^H6726, do not fear ^H3372 the Assyrian ^H804 [fn]who strikes ^H5221 you with the rod ^H7626 and lifts ^H5375 up ^H5375 his staff ^H4294 against ^H5921 you, the way ^H1870 Egypt ^H4714 did.

Cry ^H6670 aloud ^H6670 and shout ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442, O inhabitant ^H3427 of Zion ^H6726,

For great ^H1419 in your midst ^H7130 is the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478.

“How ^H4100 then will one answer ^H6030 the messengers ^H4397 of the nation ^H1471?

That Yahweh ^H3068 has founded ^H3245 Zion ^H6726,

And the afflicted ^H6041 of His people ^H5971 will take ^H2620 refuge ^H2620 in it.”

Send ^H7971 the tribute lamb ^H3733 to the ruler ^H4910 of the land ^H776,

From [fn]Sela ^H5554 by way of the wilderness ^H4057 to the mountain ^H2022 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726.

At that time ^H6256 a gift ^H7862 of ^H7862 homage ^H7862 will be brought ^H2986 to Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635

[fn]From a people ^H5971 [fn]tall ^H4900 and smooth ^H4803,

Even from a people ^H5971 feared ^H3372 [fn]far ^H4480 H1931 and wide ^H1973,

A powerful ^H6978 and oppressive ^H4001 nation ^H1471,

Whose ^H834 land ^H776 the rivers ^H5104 divide ^H958—

To the place ^H4725 of the name ^H8034 of Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635, even Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726.

Then the moon ^H3842 will be humiliated ^H2659 and the sun ^H2535 ashamed ^H954,

For Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 will reign ^H4427 on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 and in Jerusalem ^H3389,

And His glory ^H3519 will be before ^H5048 His elders ^H2205.

Therefore ^H3651 thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068,

“Behold ^H2009, I am laying ^H3245 in Zion ^H6726 a stone ^H68, a tested ^H976 stone ^H68,

A costly ^H3368 cornerstone ^H6438 for the foundation ^H4143, [fn]firmly ^H3245 placed ^H3245.

He who believes ^H539 in it will not be [fn]disturbed ^H2363.

And it will be as when ^H834 a hungry ^H7457 man ^H7457 dreams ^H2492—

And behold ^H2009, he is eating ^H398;

But he awakens ^H6974, and his soul ^H5315 is empty ^H7386,

Or as when ^H834 a thirsty ^H6771 man ^H6771 dreams ^H2492—

And behold ^H2009, he is drinking ^H8354,

But he awakens ^H6974, and behold ^H2009, he is faint ^H5889,

And his soul ^H5315 is not quenched ^H8264.

Thus ^H3651 the multitude ^H1995 of all ^H3605 the nations ^H1471 will be

Who wage ^H6633 war ^H6633 against ^H5921 Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726.

[fn]O people ^H5971 in Zion ^H6726, inhabitant ^H3427 in Jerusalem ^H3389, you will weep ^H1058 no ^H3808 longer ^H1058. He will surely ^H2603 be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to you at the sound ^H6963 of your cry ^H2199; when He hears ^H8085 it, He will answer ^H6030 you.

For thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 to me,

“As the lion ^H738 or the young ^H3715 lion ^H3715 growls ^H1897 over ^H5921 its prey ^H2964,

Against ^H5921 which ^H834 a multitude ^H4393 of shepherds ^H7462 is called ^H7121 out ^H7121,

And it will not be dismayed ^H2865 at their voice ^H6963 nor ^H3808 afflicted ^H6031 at their noise ^H1995,

So ^H3651 will Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635 come ^H3381 down ^H3381 to wage ^H6633 war ^H6633 on Mount ^H2022 Zion ^H6726 and on its hill ^H1389.”

“His rock ^H5553 will pass ^H5674 away ^H5674 because ^H4480 of terror ^H4032,

And his princes ^H8269 will be dismayed ^H2865 at the standard ^H5251,”

Declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068, whose ^H834 fire ^H217 is in Zion ^H6726 and whose furnace ^H8574 is in Jerusalem ^H3389.

Yahweh ^H3068 is ^H7682 exalted ^H7682, for He dwells ^H7931 on high ^H4791;

He has filled ^H4390 Zion ^H6726 with justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666.

Sinners ^H2400 in Zion ^H6726 are in dread ^H6342;

Trembling ^H7461 has seized ^H270 the godless ^H2611.

“Who ^H4310 among us can sojourn ^H1481 with the consuming ^H398 fire ^H784?

Who ^H4310 among us can sojourn ^H1481 with [fn]continual ^H5769 burning ^H4168?”

Behold ^H2372 Zion ^H6726, the city ^H7151 of our appointed ^H4150 times ^H4150;

Your eyes ^H5869 will see ^H7200 Jerusalem ^H3389, an abode ^H5116 at ^H7600 ease ^H7600,

A tent ^H168 which will not be folded ^H6813;

Its stakes ^H3489 will never ^H1077 H5331 be pulled ^H5265 up ^H5265,

Nor ^H1077 any ^H3605 of its cords ^H2256 ever ^H1077 be torn ^H5423 apart ^H5423.

For Yahweh ^H3068 has a day ^H3117 of vengeance ^H5359,

A year ^H8141 of recompense ^H7966 for the [fn]cause ^H7379 of Zion ^H6726.

And the ransomed ^H6299 of Yahweh ^H3068 will return ^H7725

And come ^H935 with joyful ^H7440 shouting ^H7440 to Zion ^H6726,

With everlasting ^H5769 gladness ^H8057 upon their heads ^H7218.

They will [fn]attain ^H5381 delight ^H8342 and gladness ^H8057,

And sorrow ^H3015 and sighing ^H585 will flee ^H5127 away ^H5127.

“She has despised ^H959 you and mocked ^H3932 you,

The virgin ^H1330 daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726;

She has shaken ^H5128 her head ^H7218 behind ^H310 you,

The daughter ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389!

Get ^H5927 yourself up ^H5927 on a high ^H1364 mountain ^H2022,

O Zion ^H6726, bearer ^H1319 of ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319,

Raise ^H7311 up ^H7311 your voice ^H6963 powerfully ^H3581,

O Jerusalem ^H3389, bearer ^H1319 of ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319;

Raise ^H7311 it up ^H7311, do not fear ^H3372.

Say ^H559 to the cities ^H5892 of Judah ^H3063,

“Behold ^H2009 your God ^H430!”

“Formerly ^H7223 I said to Zion ^H6726, ‘Behold ^H2009, here ^H2009 they are.’

And to Jerusalem ^H3389, ‘I will give ^H5414 a messenger ^H1319 of ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319.’

“I bring ^H7126 near ^H7126 My righteousness ^H6666, it is ^H7368 not far ^H7368 off ^H7368;

And My salvation ^H8668 will not delay ^H309.

And I will grant ^H5414 salvation ^H8668 in Zion ^H6726,

And My glory ^H8597 for Israel ^H3478.

But Zion ^H6726 said ^H559, “Yahweh ^H3068 has forsaken ^H5800 me,

And the Lord ^H136 has forgotten ^H7911 me.”

Indeed ^H3588, Yahweh ^H3068 will comfort ^H5162 Zion ^H6726;

He will comfort ^H5162 all ^H3605 her waste ^H2723 places ^H2723.

And her wilderness ^H4057 He will make ^H7760 like Eden ^H5731,

And her desert ^H6160 like the garden ^H1588 of Yahweh ^H3068;

Joy ^H8342 and gladness ^H8057 will be found ^H4672 in her,

Thanksgiving ^H8426 and sound ^H6963 of a melody ^H2172.

So the ransomed ^H6299 of Yahweh ^H3068 will return ^H7725

And come ^H935 with joyful ^H7440 shouting ^H7440 to Zion ^H6726,

And everlasting ^H5769 gladness ^H8057 will be on their heads ^H7218.

They will obtain ^H5381 joy ^H8342 and gladness ^H8057,

And sorrow ^H3015 and sighing ^H585 will flee ^H5127 away.

Awake ^H5782, awake ^H5782,

Clothe ^H3847 yourself ^H3847 in your strength ^H5797, O Zion ^H6726;

Clothe ^H3847 yourself ^H3847 in your glorious ^H8597 garments ^H899,

O Jerusalem ^H3389, the holy ^H6944 city ^H5892;

For the uncircumcised ^H6189 and the unclean ^H2931

Will no ^H3808 longer ^H3254 H5750 come ^H935 into you.

How ^H4100 lovely ^H4998 on the mountains ^H2022

Are the feet ^H7272 of him who proclaims ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319,

Who [fn]announces ^H8085 [fn]peace ^H7965

And proclaims ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319 of good ^H2896 things,

Who [fn]announces ^H8085 salvation ^H3444,

And says ^H559 to Zion ^H6726, “Your God ^H430 [fn]reigns ^H4427!”

“A Redeemer ^H1350 will come ^H935 to Zion ^H6726,

And to those who turn ^H7725 from transgression ^H6588 in Jacob ^H3290,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“The sons ^H1121 of those who afflicted ^H6031 you will come ^H1980 bowing ^H7817 to you,

And all ^H3605 those who spurned ^H5006 you will bow ^H2331 themselves at the soles ^H3709 of your feet ^H7272;

And they will call ^H7121 you the City ^H5892 of Yahweh ^H3068,

The Zion ^H6726 of the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478.

To grant ^H7760 those who mourn ^H57 in Zion ^H6726,

Giving ^H5414 them a headdress ^H6287 instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 ashes ^H665,

The oil ^H8081 of rejoicing ^H8342 instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 mourning ^H60,

The mantle ^H4594 of praise ^H8416 instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 a spirit ^H7307 of fainting ^H3544.

So they will be called ^H7121 [fn]oaks ^H352 of righteousness ^H6664,

The planting ^H4302 of Yahweh ^H3068, that He may show ^H6286 forth His beautiful ^H6286 glory ^H6286.

For Zion’s ^H6726 sake ^H4616 I will not keep ^H2814 silent ^H2814,

And for Jerusalem’s ^H3389 sake ^H4616 I will not keep ^H8252 quiet ^H8252,

Until ^H5704 her righteousness ^H6664 goes ^H3318 forth ^H3318 like brightness ^H5051,

And her salvation ^H3444 like a torch ^H3940 that is burning ^H1197.

Behold ^H2009, Yahweh ^H3068 has [fn]announced ^H8085 to the end ^H7097 of the earth ^H776,

Say ^H559 to the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726, “Behold ^H2009, your salvation ^H3468 comes ^H935;

Behold ^H2009, His reward ^H7939 is with Him, and His recompense ^H6468 before ^H6440 Him.”

Your holy ^H6944 cities ^H5892 have become ^H1961 a wilderness ^H4057;

Zion ^H6726 has become ^H1961 a wilderness ^H4057,

Jerusalem ^H3389 a desolation ^H8077.

“Who ^H4310 has heard ^H8085 such ^H2088 a thing ^H2088? Who ^H4310 has seen ^H7200 such ^H428 things?

Can a land ^H776 be [fn]brought ^H2342 forth ^H2342 through ^H2342 labor ^H2342 pains ^H2342 in one ^H259 day ^H3117?

Can a nation ^H1471 be born ^H3205 all ^H6471 at ^H6471 once ^H259 H6471?

As ^H3588 soon ^H3588 as ^H3588 Zion ^H6726 was ^H2342 in ^H2342 labor ^H2342 pains ^H2342, she also ^H1571 gave ^H3205 birth ^H3205 to her sons ^H1121.

‘[fn]Return ^H7725, O faithless ^H7726 sons ^H1121,’ declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068;

‘For I am ^H1166 a ^H1166 master ^H1166 to you,

And I will take ^H3947 you one ^H259 from a city ^H5892 and two ^H8147 from a family ^H4940,

And I will bring ^H935 you to Zion ^H6726.’

“Lift ^H5375 up ^H5375 a standard ^H5251 toward Zion ^H6726!

Seek ^H5756 safety ^H5756, do not stand ^H5975 still,

For I am bringing ^H935 evil ^H7451 from the north ^H6828,

And great ^H1419 destruction ^H7667.

For I heard ^H8085 a sound ^H6963 as of a woman in ^H2342 labor ^H2342 pains ^H2342,

The distress ^H6869 as of one ^H1069 giving ^H1069 birth ^H1069 to ^H1069 her ^H1069 first ^H1069 child ^H1069,

The sound ^H6963 of the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726 gasping ^H3306 for ^H3306 breath ^H3306,

Stretching ^H6566 out ^H6566 her [fn]hands ^H3709, saying,

“Ah ^H4994, woe ^H188 is me, for my soul faints ^H5888 before murderers ^H2026.”

“The comely ^H5000 and delicate ^H6026 one, the daughter ^H1323 of Zion ^H6726, I will ruin ^H1820.

“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!”

Behold ^H2009, the sound ^H6963! The cry ^H7775 of the daughter ^H1323 of my people ^H5971 from a distant ^H4801 land ^H776:

“Is Yahweh ^H3068 not in Zion ^H6726? Is her King ^H4428 not within her?”

“Why ^H4069 have they provoked ^H3707 Me to anger ^H3707 with their graven ^H6456 images ^H6456, with foreign ^H5236 [fn]idols ^H1892?”

“For a voice ^H6963 of wailing ^H5092 is heard ^H8085 from Zion ^H6726,

‘How ^H349 we are destroyed ^H7703!

We are put ^H954 to ^H954 great ^H3966 shame ^H954,

For we have left ^H5800 the land ^H776

Because ^H3588 they have cast ^H7993 down ^H7993 our dwellings ^H4908.’”

Have You completely ^H3988 rejected ^H3988 Judah ^H3063?

Or ^H518 [fn]have You loathed ^H1602 Zion ^H6726?

Why ^H4069 have You stricken ^H5221 us so that there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 healing ^H4832 for us?

We hoped ^H6960 for peace ^H7965, but there ^H369 was ^H369 no ^H369 good ^H2896;

And for a time ^H6256 of healing ^H4832, but behold ^H2009, terror ^H1205!

“Zion ^H6726 will be plowed ^H2790 as a field ^H7704,

And Jerusalem ^H3389 will become ^H1961 a heap ^H5856 of ^H5856 ruins ^H5856,

And the mountain ^H2022 of the house ^H1004 will become [fn]the high ^H1116 places ^H1116 of a forest ^H3293.”’
