I heard H8085, and my [fn]inward H990 parts H990 trembled H7264;
At the sound H6963 my lips H8193 tingled H6750.
Decay H7538 enters H935 my bones H6106,
And in H8478 my place H8478 I tremble H7264.
Because H834 I must wait H5117 quietly H5117 for the day H3117 of distress H6869,
[fn]For the people H5971 to arise H5927 who will invade H1464 us.
Though H3588 the fig H8384 tree H8384 should not blossom H6524
And there H369 be H369 no H369 produce H2981 on the vines H1612,
Though the yield H4639 of the olive H2132 should fail H3584
And the fields H7709 yield H6213 no H3808 food H400,
Though the flock H6629 should be cut H1504 off H1504 from the fold H4356
And there H369 be H369 no H369 cattle H1241 in the stalls H7517,
