Then he [fn]had H2492 still H5750 another H312 dream H2472 and recounted H5608 it to his brothers H251 and said H559, “Behold H2009, I have [fn]had H2492 still H5750 another dream H2472; and behold H2009, the sun H8121 and the moon H3394 and eleven H259 H6240 stars H3556 were bowing H2331 down H2331 to me.”
And they sat H3427 down H3427 to eat H398 [fn]a meal H3899. Then they lifted H5375 up H5375 their eyes H5869 and saw H7200, and behold H2009, a caravan H736 of Ishmaelites H3459 was coming H935 from Gilead H1568, with their camels H1581 bearing H5375 [fn]aromatic H5219 gum H5219 and [fn]balm H6875 and [fn]myrrh H3910, going H1980 to bring H3381 them down H3381 to Egypt H4714.
Thus it happened H1961 on the third H7992 day H3117, which was Pharaoh's H6547 birthday H3205 H3117, that he made H6213 a feast H4960 for all H3605 his servants H5650; and he lifted H5375 up H5375 the head H7218 of the chief H8269 cupbearer H4945 and the head H7218 of the chief H8269 baker H644 among H8432 his servants H5650.
Now Pharaoh H6547 drew H7126 near H7126, and the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 lifted H5375 up H5375 their eyes H5869, and behold H2009, the Egyptians H4714 were marching H5265 after H310 them, and they became H3372 very H3966 afraid H3372; so the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H6817 out H6817 to Yahweh H3068.
Moreover, from the [fn]blue H8504 and purple H713 and scarlet H8144 material, they made H6213 finely H8278 woven H8278 garments H899 for ministering H8334 in the holy H6944 place [fn]as well as the holy H6944 garments H899 which H834 were for Aaron H175, just H834 as Yahweh H3068 had commanded H6680 Moses H4872.
“For as for the [fn]life H5315 of all H3605 flesh H1320, its blood H1818 is identified with its [fn]life H5315. Therefore I said H559 to the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, ‘You are not to eat H398 the blood H1818 of any H3605 flesh H1320, for the [fn]life H5315 of all H3605 flesh H1320 is its blood H1818; whoever H3605 eats H398 it shall be cut H3772 off H3772.'
‘Any H376 man H376 from the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 or from the sojourners H1616 sojourning H1481 in Israel H3478 who H834 gives H5414 any H4480 of his seed H2233 to Molech H4432 shall surely H4191 be put H4191 to death H4191; the people H5971 of the land H776 shall stone H7275 him with stones H68.

Of the sons H1121 of Naphtali H5321, their genealogical H8435 registration H8435 by their families H4940, by their fathers' H1 households H1004, according to the number H4557 of names H8034, from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605, whoever H3605 was able to go H3318 out H3318 to war H6635,
Then Yahweh H3068 spoke H1696 to Aaron H175, “Now behold H2009, I Myself H589 have given H5414 you the responsibility H4931 of My [fn]contributions H8641, even all H3605 the holy H6944 gifts of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 I have given H5414 them to you as a portion H4888 and to your sons H1121 as a perpetual H5769 statute H2706.
Now the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205 and the sons H1121 of Gad H1410 had H1961 an exceedingly H3966 large H6099 number H6099 of livestock H4735. And they saw H7200 the land H776 of Jazer H3270 and the land H776 of Gilead H1568, that [fn]it was indeed H2009 a place H4725 suitable H4725 for livestock H4735,
So Moses H4872 gave H5414 to them, to the sons H1121 of Gad H1410 and to the sons H1121 of Reuben H7205 and to the half-tribe H2677 H7626 of Joseph's H3130 son H1121 Manasseh H4519, the kingdom H4467 of Sihon H5511, king H4428 of the Amorites H567 and the kingdom H4467 of Og H5747, the king H4428 of Bashan H1316, the land H776 with its cities H5892 with their [fn]territories H1367, the cities H5892 of the surrounding H5439 land H776.
“Be H8104 careful H8104 to listen H8085 to all H3605 these H428 words H1697 which H834 I command H6680 you, so H4616 that it may be well H3190 with you and your sons H1121 after H310 you forever H5704 H5769, for you will be doing H6213 what H2896 is H2896 good H2896 and right H3477 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068 your God H430.
“You shall set H6942 apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942 to Yahweh H3068 your God H430 all H3605 the firstborn H1060 males H2145 that are born H3205 of your herd H1241 and of your flock H6629; you shall not work H5647 with the firstborn H1060 of your herd H7794 nor H3808 shear H1494 the firstborn H1060 of your flock H6629.
Then Moses H4872 called H7121 to Joshua H3091 and said H559 to him in the sight H5869 of all H3605 Israel H3478, “Be strong H2388 and courageous H553, for you shall go H935 with this H2088 people H5971 into the land H776 which H834 Yahweh H3068 has sworn H7650 to their fathers H1 to give H5414 them, and you shall give H5157 it to them as H5157 an H5157 inheritance H5157.
Now it happened H1961 when Joshua H3091 was by Jericho H3405, that he lifted H5375 up H5375 his eyes H5869 and looked H7200, and behold H2009, a man H376 was standing H5975 opposite H5048 him with his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand H3027, and Joshua H3091 went H1980 to him and said H559 to him, “Are you for us or H518 for our adversaries H6862?”
But the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 acted H4603 unfaithfully H4603 H4604 in regard to the things H2764 devoted H2764 to destruction H2764. Achan H5912, the son H1121 of Carmi H3756, the son H1121 of Zabdi H2067, the son H1121 of Zerah H2226, from the tribe H4294 of Judah H3063, took H3947 some H4480 of the devoted H2764 things H2764; therefore the anger H639 of Yahweh H3068 burned H2734 against the sons H1121 of Israel H3478.
Then the men H376 arose H6965 and went H1980, and Joshua H3091 commanded H6680 those who went H1980 to write H3789 the description of the land H776, saying H559, “Go H1980 and walk H1980 through the land H776 and write H3789 a description of it, and return H7725 to me; then I will cast H7993 lots H1486 for you here H6311 before H6440 Yahweh H3068 in Shiloh H7887.”
And the sons H1121 of Gershon H1648 [fn]received thirteen H7969 H6240 cities H5892 by lot H1486 from the families H4940 of the tribe H4294 of Issachar H3485 and from the tribe H4294 of Asher H836 and from the tribe H4294 of Naphtali H5321, and from the half-tribe H2677 H4294 of Manasseh H4519 in Bashan H1316.
Now to the sons H1121 of Gershon H1648, one of the families H4940 of the Levites H3881, from the half-tribe H2677 H4294 of Manasseh H4519, they gave Golan H1474 in Bashan H1316, the city H5892 of refuge H4733 for the manslayer H7523, with its pasture H4054 lands H4054, and Be-eshterah H1203 with its pasture H4054 lands H4054; two H8147 cities H5892.
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 came H5927 up H5927 from Gilgal H1537 to Bochim H1066. And he said H559, “I brought H5927 you up H5927 out of Egypt H4714 and led H935 you into the land H776 which H834 I have sworn H7650 to your fathers H1; and I said H559, ‘I will never H3808 H5769 break H6565 My covenant H1285 with you,
Then the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 what H7451 was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of Yahweh H3068 and served H5647 the Baals H1168 and the Ashtaroth H6252, the gods H430 of Aram H758, the gods H430 of Sidon H6721, the gods H430 of Moab H4124, the gods H430 of the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983, and the gods H430 of the Philistines H6430; thus they forsook H5800 Yahweh H3068 and did not serve H5647 Him.
Then the men H376 of Ephraim H669 were summoned H6817, and they crossed H5674 [fn]to Zaphon H6829 and said H559 to Jephthah H3316, “Why H4069 did you cross H5674 over H5674 to fight H3898 against the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983, but did not H3808 call H7121 us to go H1980 with you? We will burn H8313 your house H1004 down on you.”
Then the Spirit H7307 of Yahweh H3068 [fn]came H6743 upon him mightily H6743, and he went H3381 down H3381 to Ashkelon H831 and struck H5221 down H5221 thirty H7970 of them and took H3947 their spoil H2488 and gave H5414 the changes H2487 of clothes to those who told H5046 the riddle H2420. And his anger H639 burned H2734, and he went H5927 up H5927 to his father's H1 house H1004.
When he came H935 to Lehi H3896, the Philistines H6430 shouted H7321 as they met H7122 him. And the Spirit H7307 of Yahweh H3068 [fn]came H6743 upon him mightily H6743 so that the ropes H5688 that were on his arms H2220 were as flax H6593 that is burned H1197 with fire H784, and his bonds H612 [fn]dropped H4549 from his hands H3027.
And the five H2568 men H376 who went H1980 to spy H7270 out H7270 the country H776 of Laish H3919 answered H6030 and said H559 to their relatives H251, “Do you know H3045 that there H3426 are H3426 in these H428 houses H1004 an ephod H646 and [fn]household H8655 idols H8655 and a graven H6459 image H6459 and a molten H4541 image H4541? So now H6258, know H3045 what H4100 you should do H6213.”
“Those who contend H7378 with Yahweh H3068 will be dismayed H2865;
Against H5921 them He will thunder H7481 in the heavens H8064;
Yahweh H3068 will render H1777 justice H1777 to the ends H657 of the earth H776,
And He will give H5414 strength H5797 to His king H4428,
And He will exalt H7311 the [fn]horn H7161 of His anointed H4899.”
Then He struck H5221 down H5221 some of the men H376 of Beth-shemesh H1053 because H3588 they had looked H7200 into the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068. He struck H5221 down H5221 of all the people H5971, 50,070 H7657 H2572 H505 men H376, and the people H5971 mourned H56 because H3588 Yahweh H3068 had struck H5221 the people H5971 with a great H1419 slaughter H4347.
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Samuel H8050, “How H4970 long H5704 will you be grieving H56 over H413 Saul H7586? I have rejected H3988 him from being H4427 king H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478. Fill H4390 your horn H7161 with oil H8081 and go H1980; I will send H7971 you to Jesse H3448 the Bethlehemite H1022, for I see H7200 among his sons H1121 a king H4428 for Me.”
“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 Solomon H8010 awoke H3364, and behold H2009, it was a dream H2472. And he came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 and stood H5975 before H6440 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the Lord H136, and offered H5927 burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and made H6213 peace H8002 offerings H8002, and made H6213 a feast H4960 for all H3605 his servants H5650.
“Blessed H1288 be Yahweh H3068, who H834 has given H5414 rest H4496 to His people H5971 Israel H3478, according to all H3605 that He [fn]promised H1696; not one H259 promise H1697 has [fn]failed H5307 of all H3605 His good H2896 [fn]promises H1697, which H834 He [fn]promised H1696 by the hand H3027 of Moses H4872 His [fn]servant H5650.
Now the rest H3499 of all H3605 the acts H1697 of Asa H609 and all H3605 his might H1369 and all H3605 that he did H6213 and the cities H5892 which H834 he built H1129, are they not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of the Chronicles H1697 H3117 of the Kings H4428 of Judah H3063? But in the time H6256 of his old H2209 age H2209 he was H2470 diseased H2470 in his feet H7272.
So he went H1980 from there H8033 and found H4672 Elisha H477 the son H1121 of Shaphat H8202, while he was plowing H2790 with twelve H8147 H6240 pairs H6776 of oxen before H6440 him, and he with the twelfth H8147 H6240. And Elijah H452 passed H5674 over H5674 to him and threw H7993 his mantle H155 on him.
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.”
Now Elisha H477 returned H7725 to Gilgal H1537, and there was a famine H7458 in the land H776. [fn]As the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 were sitting H3427 before H6440 him, he said H559 to his young H5288 man H5288, “Put H8239 on the large H1419 pot H5518 and boil H1310 stew H5138 for the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030.”
Now it happened H1961 that as soon as he had finished H3615 offering H6213 the burnt H5930 offering H5930, Jehu H3058 said H559 to the [fn]guard H7323 and to the royal H7991 officers H7991, “Come H935 in H935, strike H5221 them down H5221; let none H376 H408 come H3318 out H3318.” And they struck H5221 them down H5221 with the edge H6310 of the sword H2719; and the [fn]guard H7323 and the royal H7991 officers H7991 threw H7993 them out H7993 and went H1980 to the [fn]inner H5892 room H5892 of the house H1004 of Baal H1168.
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 that he did H6213 and his might H1369, how H834 he fought H3898 and how H834 he restored H7725 Damascus H1834 and Hamath H2574 to Judah H3063 in Israel H3478, are they not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of the Chronicles H1697 H3117 of the Kings H4428 of Israel H3478?
To this H2088 day H3117 they are acting H6213 according to the earlier H7223 customs H4941: they are not H369 fearing H3372 Yahweh H3068; they are not H369 acting H6213 according to their statutes H2708 or their judgments H4941 or the law H8451, or the commandment H4687 which H834 Yahweh H3068 commanded H6680 the sons H1121 of Jacob H3290, whom H834 He named H7760 H8034 Israel H3478;
‘Because H3282 of your raging H7264 against H413 Me,
And because your [fn]presumptuousness H7600 has come H5927 up H5927 to My ears H241,
Therefore I will put H7760 My hook H2397 in your nose H639,
And My bridle H4964 in your lips H8193,
And I will turn H7725 you back H7725 by the way H1870 which H834 you came H935.
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Hezekiah H2396 and all H3605 his might H1369, and how H834 he made H6213 the pool H1295 and the conduit H8585 and brought H935 water H4325 into the city H5892, are they not written H3789 in the Book H5612 of the Chronicles H1697 H3117 of the Kings H4428 of Judah H3063?
Then the king H4428 commanded H6680 Hilkiah H2518 the high H1419 priest H3548 and the priests H3548 of the second H4932 order and the [fn]doorkeepers H8104 H5592, to bring H3318 out H3318 of the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068 all H3605 the vessels H3627 that were made H6213 for Baal H1168, for [fn]Asherah H842, and for all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064; and he burned H8313 them outside H4480 H2351 Jerusalem H3389 in the fields H7709 of the Kidron H6939, and carried H5375 their ashes H6083 to Bethel H1008.
“We are yours, O David H1732,
And with you, O son H1121 of Jesse H3448!
Peace H7965, peace H7965 to you,
And peace H7965 to him who helps H5826 you;
Indeed H3588, your God H430 helps H5826 you!”
Then David H1732 received H6901 them and made H5414 them chiefs H7218 of the band H1416.
Now the acts H1697 of Rehoboam H7346, from first H7223 to last H314, are they not written H3789 in the [fn]records H1697 of Shemaiah H8098 the prophet H5030 and of Iddo H5714 the seer H2374, according to genealogical H3187 record H3187? Now there were wars H4421 between Rehoboam H7346 and Jeroboam H3379 all H3605 their days H3117.
And Hezekiah H2396 set H5975 up H5975 the divisions H4256 of the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 by their divisions H4256, each H376 according H6310 to his service H5656, both the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881, for burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and for peace H8002 offerings H8002, to minister H8334 and to give H3034 thanks H3034 and to praise H1984 in the gates H8179 of the camp H4264 of Yahweh H3068.
And Josiah H2977 contributed H7311 to the lay H1121 people H5971, to all H3605 who were H4672 present H4672, flocks H6629 of lambs H3532 and young H1121 H5795 goats H1121 H5795, all H3605 for the Passover H6453 offerings H6453, numbering H4557 30,000 H7970 H505 plus 3,000 H7969 H505 bulls H1241; these H428 were from the king's H4428 possessions H7399.
And in the days H3117 of [fn]Artaxerxes H783, Bishlam H1312, Mithredath H4990, Tabeel H2870, and the rest H7605 of his colleagues H3674 wrote H3789 to Artaxerxes H783 king H4428 of Persia H6539; and the [fn]text H3791 of the letter H5406 was written H3789 in Aramaic H762 and translated H8638 from Aramaic H762.
“Let it be H3046 known H3046 to the king H4430 that we have gone H236 to the province H4083 of Judah H3061, to the house H1005 of the great H7229 God H426, and it H1932 is being built H1124 with huge H1560 stones H69, and timber H636 is being put H7761 within the walls H3797; and that H1791 work H5673 is going H5648 on with all H629 diligence H629 and is succeeding H6744 in their hands H3028.
“Moreover, I issue H7761 a decree H2942 concerning what H4101 H1768 you shall do H5648 for those H479 elders H7868 of Judah H3062 in the rebuilding H1124 of that H1791 house H1005 of God H426: the full H629 cost H5313 is to be given H3052 to those H479 people H1400 from the royal H4430 treasury H5232 out of the tribute H4061 of the provinces beyond H5675 the River H5103, and that without H3809 negligence H989.
“We also make H3046 known H3046 to you that it is not allowed H7990 to [fn]impose H7412 tribute H4061, custom H4061, or toll H1983 on any H3606 of the priests H3549, Levites H3879, singers H2171, doorkeepers H8652, temple H5412 servants H5412, or other servants H6399 of this H1836 house H1005 of God H426.
“And you, Ezra H5831, according to the wisdom H2452 of your God H426 which H1768 is in your hand H3028, appoint H4483 magistrates H8200 and judges H1782 that they may judge H1934 H1778 all H3606 the people H5972 who H1768 are in the province beyond H5675 the River H5103, even all H3606 those who know H3046 the laws H1882 of your God H426; and to anyone H1768 who H1768 does H3046 not H3809 know H3046 the laws, you shall make H3046 them known H3046.
Now it happened H834 when it was heard H8085 by Sanballat H5571, Tobiah H2900, Geshem H1654 the Arab H6163, and the rest H3499 of our enemies H340 that I had rebuilt H1129 the wall H2346, and that no H3808 breach H6556 remained H3498 in it, although H1571 at that time H6256 I had not made the doors H1817 to stand H5975 in the gates H8179,
“Then You performed H5414 signs H226 and wonders H4159 against Pharaoh H6547,
Against all H3605 his servants H5650 and all H3605 the people H5971 of his land H776;
For You knew H3045 that they acted H2102 presumptuously H2102 toward H5921 them,
And made H6213 a name H8034 for Yourself as it is this H2088 day H3117.
But You, in Your abundant H7227 compassion H7356,
Did not forsake H5800 them in the wilderness H4057;
The pillar H5982 of cloud H6051 did not depart H5493 H4480 H5921 from them by day H3119,
To lead H5148 them on their way H1870,
Nor H3808 the pillar H5982 of fire H784 by night H3915,
To light H215 for them the way H1870 in which H834 they were to go H1980.
“Therefore You gave H5414 them into the hand H3027 of the ones who distressed H6862 them, and they afflicted H6887 them with distress H6887,
But at the time H6256 of their distress H6869 they cried H6817 to You,
And You listened H8085 from heaven H8064, and according to Your abundant H7227 compassion H7356
You gave H5414 them saviors H3467 and they saved H3467 them from the hand H3027 of the ones that distressed H6862 them.
Now at the dedication H2598 of the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 they sought H1245 out H1245 the Levites H3881 from all H3605 their places H4725, to bring H935 them to Jerusalem H3389 so that they might celebrate H6213 the dedication H2598 with gladness H8057, with hymns H8426 of H8426 thanksgiving H8426 and with songs H7892 to the accompaniment of cymbals H4700, harps H5035 and lyres H3658.
On that day H3117 men H376 were also appointed H6485 over H5921 the chambers H5393 for the stores H214, the contributions H8641, the first H7225 fruits H7225, and the tithes H4643, to gather H3664 into them from the fields H7704 of the cities H5892 the portions H4521 required by the law H8451 for the priests H3548 and Levites H3881; for Judah H3063 was glad H8057 over H5921 the priests H3548 and Levites H3881 who stood H5975 to minister.
On the seventh H7637 day H3117, when the heart H3820 of the king H4428 was merry H2895 with wine H3196, he said H559 for Mehuman H4104, Biztha H968, Harbona H2726, Bigtha H903, Abagtha H5, Zethar H2242, and Carkas H3752, the seven H7651 eunuchs H5631 who attended H8334 to the presence H6440 of King H4428 Ahasuerus H325,
Then the king's H4428 scribes H5608 were summoned H7121 on the thirteenth H7969 H6240 day H3117 of the first H7223 month H2320, and it was written H3789 just H3605 H834 as Haman H2001 commanded H6680 to the king's H4428 satraps H323, to the governors H6346 who H834 were over H5921 each H4082 province H4082, and to the princes H8269 of each H5971 people H5971, each H4082 province H4082 according to its script H3791, each H5971 people H5971 according to its tongue H3956, being written H3789 in the name H8034 of King H4428 Ahasuerus H325 and sealed H2856 with the king's H4428 signet H2885 ring H2885.
So the king's H4428 scribes H5608 were called H7121 at that time H6256 in the third H7992 month H2320 (that is, the month H2320 Sivan H5510), on the twenty-third H6242 H7969 [fn]day; and it was written H3789 according to all H3605 that Mordecai H4782 commanded H6680 to the Jews H3064, the satraps H323, the governors H6346, and the princes H8269 of the provinces H4082 which H834 extended from India H1912 to [fn]Ethiopia H3568, 127 H7651 H6242 H3967 provinces H4082, to every H4082 province H4082 according to its script H3791, and to every H5971 people H5971 according to their tongue H3956 as well as to the Jews H3064 according to their script H3791 and their tongue H3956.
For the choir director. According to [fn]Shushan Eduth. A [fn]Mikhtam of David. For teaching. [fn]When he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.
O God H430, You have rejected H2186 us. You have [fn]broken H6555 us;
Who H4310 has ascended H5927 into heaven H8064 and descended H3381?
Who H4310 has gathered H622 the wind H7307 in His fists H2651?
Who H4310 has wrapped H6887 the waters H4325 in [fn]His garment H8071?
Who H4310 has [fn]established H6965 all H3605 the ends H657 of the earth H776?
What H4100 is His name H8034? And what is His Son's H1121 name H8034?
It is the same H834 for all H3605. There is one H259 fate H4745 for the righteous H6662 and for the wicked H7563; for the good H2896, for the clean H2889 and for the unclean H2931; for the man who offers H2076 a H2076 sacrifice H2076 and for the one who H834 does not sacrifice H2076. As the good H2896 man H2896 is, so is the sinner H2398; as the swearer H7650 is, so is the one who [fn]is H3372 afraid H3372 to swear H7621.
I again H7725 saw H7200 under H8478 the sun H8121 that the race H4793 is not to the swift H7031 and the battle H4421 is not to the mighty H1368, and neither H1571 H3808 is bread H3899 to the wise H2450 nor H3808 H1571 riches H6239 to the discerning H995 nor H3808 H1571 favor H2580 to men who know H3045; for time H6256 and misfortune H6294 overtake H7136 them all H3605.
Moreover, Yahweh H3068 said H559, “Because H3282 H3588 the daughters H1323 of Zion H6726 are H1361 haughty H1361
And walk H1980 with outstretched H5186 necks H1627 and seductive H8265 eyes H5869,
And go H1980 along with mincing H2952 steps H2952
And tinkle H5913 the H5913 bangles H5913 on their feet H7272,
From the ends H3671 of the earth H776 we hear H8085 songs H2158, “Glory H6643 to the Righteous H6662 One H6662,”
But I say H559, “[fn]I waste H7334 away! [fn]I waste H7334 away! Woe H188 is me!
The treacherous H898 deal H898 treacherously H898,
And the treacherous H898 deal H898 very H899 treacherously H898.”
Your dead H4191 will live H2421;
[fn]Their corpses H5038 will rise H6965.
You who dwell H7931 in H7931 the dust H6083, awake H6974 and shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442,
For your dew H2919 is as the dew H2919 of the [fn]dawn H219,
And the earth H776 will [fn]give H5307 birth H5307 to the [fn]departed H7496 spirits H7496.
Woe H1945 to you, O destroyer H7703,
While you were not destroyed H7703;
And he who is treacherous H898, while others did not deal H898 treacherously H898 with him.
As soon as you finish H8552 destroying H7703, you will be destroyed H7703;
As soon as you cease H5239 to deal H898 treacherously H898, others will deal H898 treacherously H898 with you.
“I will set H7760 it into the hand H3027 of those who cause you grief H3013,
Who H834 have said H559 to [fn]you, ‘Lie H7812 down H7812 that we may walk H5674 over H5674 you.'
You have even set H7760 your back H1460 down like the ground H776
And like the street H2351 for those who walk H5674 over H5674 it.”
Therefore H3651, I will divide H2505 for Him a H2505 portion H2505 with the many H7227,
And He will divide H2505 the spoil H7998 with the strong H6099;
Because H8478 H834 He poured H6168 out H6168 His soul H5315 to death H4194,
And was numbered H4487 with the transgressors H6586;
Yet He Himself H1931 [fn]bore H5375 the sin H2399 of many H7227,
“No H3605 H3808 weapon H3627 that is formed H3335 against H5921 you will succeed H6743;
And every H3605 tongue H3956 that [fn]accuses H6965 you in judgment H4941 you will condemn H7561.
This H2088 is the inheritance H5159 of the [fn]slaves H5650 of Yahweh H3068,
And their righteousness H6666 is from Me,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
“For you will go H3318 out H3318 with gladness H8057
And be led H2986 forth H2986 with peace H7965;
The mountains H2022 and the hills H1389 will break H6476 forth H6476 into shouts H7440 of H7440 joy H7440 before H6440 you,
And all H3605 the trees H6086 of the field H7704 will clap H4222 their hands H3709.
For thus H3541 says H559 the One high H7311 and lifted H5375 up H5375
Who dwells H7931 forever H5703, whose name H8034 is Holy H6918,
“I dwell H7931 on a high H4791 and holy H6918 place,
And also with the crushed H1793 and lowly H8217 of spirit H7307
In order to revive H2421 the spirit H7307 of the lowly H8217
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.
Yahweh H3068 has sworn H7650 by His right H3225 hand H3225 and by His strong H5797 arm H2220,
“I will never H518 again H5750 give H5414 your grain H1715 as food H3978 for your enemies H340;
Nor H518 will [fn]foreigners H1121 H5236 drink H8354 your new H8492 wine H8492 for which H834 you have labored H3021.”
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.”
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?”
“As for your adulteries H5004 and your lustful neighings H4684,
The lewdness H2154 of your prostitution H2184
On the hills H1389 in the field H7704,
I have seen H7200 your detestable H8251 things H8251.
Woe H188 to you, O Jerusalem H3389!
How H4970 long H310 H4970 H5750 will you not H3808 cleanse H2891 yourself?”
“Also among the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389 I have seen H7200 an appalling H8186 thing H8186:
The committing H5003 of H5003 adultery H5003 and walking H1980 in lying H8267;
And they strengthen H2388 the hands H3027 of evildoers H7489,
So that no H1115 one H376 has turned H7725 back H7725 from his evil H7451.
Then I spoke H1696 to the priests H3548 and to all H3605 this H2088 people H5971, saying H559, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068: Do not listen H8085 to the words H1697 of your prophets H5030 who prophesy H5012 to you, saying H559, ‘Behold H2009, the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 will now H6258 shortly H4120 be returned H7725 from Babylon H894'; for they are prophesying H5012 a lie H8267 to you.
Lift H5375 up H5375 a standard H5251 in the land H776,
Blow H8628 a trumpet H7782 among the nations H1471!
Set H6942 apart H6942 the nations H1471 against H5921 her;
Summon H8085 against H5921 her the kingdoms H4467 of Ararat H780, Minni H4508, and Ashkenaz H813;
Appoint H6485 a marshal H2951 against H5921 her;
Bring H5927 up H5927 the horses H5483 like bristly H5569 locusts H3218.
Then He said H559 to me, “Son H1121 of man H120, raise H5375 your eyes H5869 now H4994 toward H1870 the north H6828.” So I raised H5375 my eyes H5869 toward H1870 the north H6828, and behold H2009, to the north H6828 of the altar H4196 gate H8179 was this H2088 figure H5566 of jealousy H7068 at the entrance H872.
“Furthermore H637, [fn]they have even H3588 sent H7971 for men H376 who come H935 from afar H4801, to whom H834 a messenger H4397 was sent H7971; and behold H2009, they came H935—for whom H834 you bathed H7364, painted H3583 your eyes H5869, and decorated H5710 yourselves H5710 with ornaments H5716;
‘How H349 you have perished H6, O inhabited H3427 one,
From the seas H3220, O city H5892 that was praised H1984,
Which H834 was strong H2389 on the sea H3220,
She and her inhabitants H3427,
‘The cedars H730 in God's H430 garden H1588 [fn]could not match H6004 it;
The [fn]cypresses H1265 [fn]could not liken H1819 themselves with its boughs H5589,
And the plane H6196 trees H6196 were not like its branches H6288.
No H3605 H3808 tree H6086 in God's H430 garden H1588 [fn]could liken H1819 itself with it in its beauty H3308.
‘You liken H1819 yourself to a young H3715 lion H3715 of the nations H1471,
Yet you are like the monster H8577 in the seas H3220;
And you burst H1518 forth H1518 in your rivers H5104
“But as for you, son H1121 of man H120, the sons H1121 of your people H5971 who talk H1696 about you by the walls H7023 and in the doorways H6607 of the houses H1004, speak H1696 to one H2297 another H259, each H376 to his brother H251, saying H559, ‘Come H935 now H4994 and hear H8085 what H4100 the word H1697 is which comes H3318 forth H3318 from Yahweh H3068.'
Then H116 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 the king H4430 was astounded H8429 and hurriedly H927 stood H6966 up H6966; he answered H6032 and said H560 to his high H1907 officials H1907, “Was it not three H8532 men H1400 we cast H7412 tied H3729 up H3729 into the midst H1459 of the fire H5135?” They answered H6032 and said H560 to the king H4430, “Certainly H3330, O king H4430.”
“Then H116 Daniel H1841, whose H1768 name H8036 is Belteshazzar H1096, was appalled H8075 for a while H8160 as his thoughts H7476 were alarming H927 him. The king H4430 answered H6032 and said H560, ‘Belteshazzar H1096, do not let the dream H2493 or its interpretation H6591 alarm H927 you.' Belteshazzar H1096 answered H6032 and said H560, ‘My lord H4756, if only the dream H2493 applied to those who hate H8131 you and its interpretation H6591 to your adversaries H6146!
“Then H116 I desired H6634 to know H3321 the H3321 [fn]exact H3321 meaning H3321 of the fourth H7244 beast H2423, which H1768 was different H8133 from all H3606 [fn]the others, extraordinarily H3493 fearsome H1763, with its teeth H8128 of iron H6523 and its claws H2953 of bronze H5174, and which devoured H399, crushed H1855, and trampled H7512 down H7512 the remainder H7606 with its feet H7271,
“To You, O Lord H136, belongs righteousness H6666, but to us [fn]open H6440 shame H1322, as it is this H2088 day H3117—to the men H376 of Judah H3063, the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, and all H3605 Israel H3478, those who are nearby H7138 and those who are far H7350 away in all H3605 the countries H776 to which H834 You have banished H5080 them, because of their unfaithful H4603 H4604 deeds H4604 which H834 they have committed H4603 against You.
“Now in those H1992 times H6256 many H7227 will stand H5975 against H5921 the king H4428 of the South H5045; the violent H6530 ones H1121 H6530 among your people H5971 will also lift H5375 themselves up H5375 in order to cause the vision H2377 to stand H5975, but they will [fn]fall H3782 down H3782.
Flocks H5739 will lie H7257 down H7257 in her midst H8432,
All H3605 the beasts H2416 of the nation H1471;
Both H1571 the [fn]pelican H6893 and the hedgehog H7090
Will lodge H3885 in [fn]the tops H3730 of H3730 her pillars H3730;
Their voice H6963 will sing H7891 in the window H2474,
You have wearied H3021 Yahweh H3068 with your words H1697. But you say H559, “How H4100 have we wearied H3021 Him?” In that you say H559, “Everyone H3605 who does H6213 evil H7451 is good H2896 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068, and He delights H2654 in them,” or H176, “Where H346 is the God H430 of justice H4941?”
Then H227 those who [fn]feared H3372 Yahweh H3068 spoke H1696 to one H376 another H7453, and Yahweh H3068 gave H7181 heed H7181 and heard H8085 it, and a book H5612 of remembrance H2146 was written H3789 before H6440 Him for those who [fn]fear H3372 Yahweh H3068 and who think H2803 upon His name H8034.
Then to Adam H121 He said H559, “Because H3588 you have listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of your wife H802 and have eaten H398 from the tree H6086 about which H834 I commanded H6680 you, saying H559, ‘You shall not eat H398 from it';
Cursed H779 is the ground H127 because H5668 of you;
So Ephron's H6085 field H7704, which H834 was in Machpelah H4375, which H834 faced H6440 Mamre H4471, the field H7704 and the cave H4631 which H834 was in it, and all H3605 the trees H6086 which H834 were in the field H7704, that were [fn]within all H3605 the confines H5439 of its border H1366, [fn]were deeded H6965 over H6965
Then Laban H3837 answered H6030 and said H559 to Jacob H3290, “The daughters H1323 are my daughters H1323, and the children H1121 are my children H1121, and the flocks H6629 are my flocks H6629, and all H3605 that you see H7200 is mine. But what H4100 can I do H6213 this day H3117 to these H428 daughters of mine H1323 or H176 to their children H1121 whom H834 they have borne H3205?
Then their father H1 Israel H3478 said H559 to them, “If H518 it must be so H3651, then H645 do H6213 this H2088: take H3947 some H4480 of the best H2173 products H2173 of the land H776 in your [fn]bags H3627, and bring H3381 them down H3381 to the man H376 as a present H4503, a little H4592 [fn]balm H6875 and a little H4592 honey H1706, [fn]aromatic H5219 gum H5219 and [fn]myrrh H3910, pistachio H992 nuts H992 and almonds H8247.
“And the assignment H6486 of Eleazar H499 the son H1121 of Aaron H175 the priest H3548 is the oil H8081 for the light H3974 and the fragrant H5561 incense H7004 and the continual H8548 grain offering H4503 and the anointing H4888 oil H8081—the assignment H6486 of all H3605 the [fn]tabernacle H4908 and of all H3605 that is in it, with the sanctuary H6944 and its furnishings H3627.”
“You shall set H6942 apart H6942 as H6942 holy H6942 to Yahweh H3068 your God H430 all H3605 the firstborn H1060 males H2145 that are born H3205 of your herd H1241 and of your flock H6629; you shall not work H5647 with the firstborn H1060 of your herd H7794 nor H3808 shear H1494 the firstborn H1060 of your flock H6629.
“When H3588 you reap H7114 your harvest H7105 in your field H7704 and have forgotten H7911 a sheaf H6016 in the field H7704, you shall not go H7725 back H7725 to get H3947 it; it shall be for the sojourner H1616, for the [fn]orphan H3490, and for the widow H490, in order H4616 that Yahweh H3068 your God H430 may bless H1288 you in all H3605 the work H4639 of your hands H3027.
“So it will be, when H3588 all H3605 of these H428 things H1697 have come H935 upon you, the blessing H1293 and the curse H7045 which H834 I have set H5414 before H6440 you, and you cause these things to return H7725 to your heart H3824 in all H3605 the nations H1471 where H834 H8033 Yahweh H3068 your God H430 has banished H5080 you,
‘They have made H7065 Me jealous H7065 with what is not God H410;
They have provoked H3707 Me to H3707 anger H3707 with their [fn]idols H1892.
So I will make H7065 them jealous H7065 with those who are not a people H5971;
I will provoke H3707 them to H3707 anger H3707 with a wickedly H5036 foolish H5036 nation H1471,
Now it happened that when Israel H3478 had finished H3615 killing H2026 all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of Ai H5857 in the field H7704 in the wilderness H4057 where H834 they pursued H7291 them, and all H3605 of them fell H5307 by the edge H6310 of the sword H2719 until H5704 they were completely H8552 destroyed, then all H3605 Israel H3478 turned H7725 back H7725 to Ai H5857 and struck H5221 it with the edge H6310 of the sword H2719.
Then Samuel H8050 said H559 to Saul H7586, “Why H4100 have you disturbed H7264 me by bringing H5927 me up H5927?” And Saul H7586 answered H6030, “I am H6887 greatly H3966 distressed H6887, for the Philistines H6430 are waging H3898 war H3898 against me, and God H430 has turned H5493 away H5493 from me and no H3808 longer H5750 answers H6030 me, either H1571 by the hand H3027 of the prophets H5030 or H1571 by dreams H2472; therefore I have called H7121 you, that you may make H3045 known H3045 to me what H4100 I should do H6213.”
So he brought H3381 him down H3381, and behold H2009, they were [fn]spread H5203 over H5921 all H3605 the land H776, eating H398 and drinking H8354 and [fn]celebrating H2287 because of all H3605 the great H1419 spoil H7998 that they had taken H3947 from the land H776 of the Philistines H6430 and from the land H776 of Judah H3063.
Then Absalom H53 commanded H6680 his young H5288 men H5288, saying H559, “See H7200 now H4994, when Amnon's H550 heart H3820 is merry H2895 with wine H3196, and when I say H559 to you, ‘Strike H5221 Amnon H550,' then put H4191 him to H4191 death H4191. Do not fear H3372; have not I myself H595 commanded H6680 you? Be H2388 strong H2388 and be [fn]valiant H1121 H2428.”
Then Eliakim H471 the son H1121 of Hilkiah H2518, and Shebnah H7644 and Joah H3098, said H559 to Rabshakeh H7262, “Speak H1696 now H4994 to your servants H5650 in Aramaic H762, for we [fn]understand H8085 it; and do not speak H1696 with us in [fn]Judean H3066 in the hearing H241 of the people H5971 who H834 are on the wall H2346.”
‘Because H3282 of your raging H7264 against H413 Me,
And because your [fn]presumptuousness H7600 has come H5927 up H5927 to My ears H241,
Therefore I will put H7760 My hook H2397 in your nose H639,
And My bridle H4964 in your lips H8193,
And I will turn H7725 you back H7725 by the way H1870 which H834 you came H935.
Moreover, David H1732 and the commanders H8269 of the army H6635 separated H914 for the service H5656 some of the sons H1121 of Asaph H623 and of Heman H1968 and of Jeduthun H3038, who were to prophesy H5012 with lyres H3658, harps H5035, and cymbals H4700; and the number H4557 of [fn]those H376 who performed H4399 their service H5656 was:
[fn]Now it happened that when H834 Sanballat H5571, Tobiah H2900, the Arabs H6163, the Ammonites H5984, and the Ashdodites H796 heard H8085 that the [fn]repair H724 of the walls H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 went H5927 on, and that the places broken H6555 down began H2490 to be H5640 closed H5640, they were H2734 very H3966 angry H2734.
And testified H5749 to them in order to turn H7725 them back H7725 to Your law H8451.
Yet they acted H2102 presumptuously H2102 and did not listen H8085 to Your commandments H4687 but sinned H2398 against Your judgments H4941,
By which H834 if a man H120 does H6213 them, he shall live H2421.
And they gave H5414 a stubborn H5637 shoulder H3802 and stiffened H7185 their neck H6203, and would not listen H8085.
And when these H428 days H3117 were fulfilled H4390, the king H4428 held H6213 a feast H4960 lasting seven H7651 days H3117 for all H3605 the people H5971 who were H4672 present H4672 at the citadel H1002 in Susa H7800, from the greatest H1419 to the least H6996, in the court H2691 of the garden H1593 of the king's H4428 palace H1055.
Now when it reached H5060 the turn H8447 of each H5291 young H5291 lady H5291 to go H935 in H935 to King H4428 Ahasuerus H325, after H4480 the end H7093 of her twelve H8147 H6240 months H2320 under the regulations H1881 for the women H802—for the days H3117 of their cosmetic H4795 treatment H8562 were fulfilled H4390 as H3651 follows H3651: six H8337 months H2320 with oil H8081 of myrrh H4753 and six H8337 months H2320 with spices H1314 and the cosmetics H8562 for women H802—
For before H6440 the harvest H7105, as soon as the bud H6525 [fn]blossoms H8552
And the flower H5328 becomes H1961 a ripening H1580 grape H1155,
Then He will cut H3772 off H3772 the sprigs H2150 with pruning H4211 knives H4211
And remove H5493 and cut H8456 away H8456 the spreading H5189 branches H5189.
They will be left H5800 together H3162 for mountain H2022 birds H5861 of H5861 prey H5861,
And for the beasts H929 of the earth H776;
And the birds H5861 of H5861 prey H5861 will spend H6972 the H6972 summer H6972 feeding on them,
And all H3605 the beasts H929 of the earth H776 will spend H2778 harvest H2778 time H2778 on them.
But this H1931 is a people H5971 plundered H962 and pillaged as spoil H8154;
All H3605 of them are trapped H6351 in [fn]caves H2352,
Or are hidden H2244 away in prisons H3608;
They have become H1961 a plunder H957 with none H369 to deliver H5337 them,
And a spoil H4933, with none H369 to say H559, “Have H7725 them return H7725!”
Even those I will bring H935 to My holy H6944 mountain H2022
And make H8055 them glad H8055 in My house H1004 of prayer H8605.
Their burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and their sacrifices H2077 will be acceptable H7522 on My altar H4196;
For My house H1004 will be called H7121 a house H1004 of prayer H8605 for all H3605 the peoples H5971.”
“Those who sanctify H6942 and purify H2891 themselves to go to the gardens H1593,
[fn]Following H310 one H259 in the center H8432,
Who eat H398 swine's H2386 flesh H1320, detestable H8263 things H8263, and mice H5909,
Will come H5486 to H5486 an H5486 end H5486 altogether H3162,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
‘A rumbling H7588 has come H935 to the end H7097 of the earth H776
Because H3588 Yahweh H3068 has a contention H7379 against the nations H1471.
He is entering H8199 into H8199 judgment H8199 with all H3605 flesh H1320;
As for the wicked H7563, He has given H5414 them to the sword H2719,' declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.”
“Declare H5046 and make it heard H8085 among the nations H1471.
Make it heard H8085 and lift H5375 up H5375 a standard H5251.
Do not conceal H3582 it but say H559,
‘Babylon H894 has been captured H3920;
Bel H1078 has been put H954 to H954 shame H954; [fn]Marduk H4781 has been H2865 [fn]shattered H2865;
Her images H6091 have been put H954 to H954 shame H954; her idols H1544 have been H2865 shattered H2865.'
“Thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, ‘Strike H5221 your hands H3709 together, stamp H7554 your foot H7272 and say H559, “Alas H253, because H413 of all H3605 the evil H7451 abominations H8441 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478, which H834 will fall H5307 by the sword H2719, by the famine H7458, and by the plague H1698!
“As for you, O house H1004 of Israel H3478,” thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, “Go H1980, serve H5647 everyone H376 his idols H1544; [fn]but after H310 this you will surely H518 H369 listen H8085 to Me, and My holy H6944 name H8034 you will profane H2490 no H3808 longer H5750 with your gifts H4979 and with your idols H1544.
“Therefore H3651, thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, ‘Because H3282 you have made H2142 your iniquity H5771 to H2142 be H2142 remembered H2142, in that your transgressions H6588 are uncovered H1540, so that in all H3605 your deeds H5949 your sins H2403 appear H7200—because H3282 you have come H2142 to H2142 remembrance H2142, you will be seized H8610 with the hand H3709.
“I will abandon H5203 you to the wilderness H4057, you and all H3605 the fish H1710 of your canals H2975 of the Nile H2975;
You will fall H5307 on the [fn]open H6440 field H7704; you will not be brought H622 together H622 or [fn]gathered H6908.
I have given H5414 you for food H402 to the beasts H2416 of the earth H776 and to the birds H5775 of the sky H8064.
“Therefore H3651 say H559 to the house H1004 of Israel H3478, ‘Thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, “It is not for your sake H4616, O house H1004 of Israel H3478, that I am about to act H6213, but for My holy H6944 name H8034, which H834 you have profaned H2490 among the nations H1471, to which H834 H8033 you have come H935.
“Then those who inhabit H3427 the cities H5892 of Israel H3478 will go H3318 out H3318 and make H1197 fires H1197 with the weapons H5402 and burn H5400 them, both shields H4043 and large H6793 shields H6793, bows H7198 and arrows H2671, war H4731 clubs H4731 and spears H7420; and for seven H7651 years H8141 they will make H1197 fires H784 of them.
“And when you divide H5307 by H5307 lot H5307 the land H776 for inheritance H5159, you shall offer H7311 a contribution H8641 to Yahweh H3068, a holy H6944 portion H6944 of the land H776; the length H753 shall be the length H753 of [fn]25,000 H2568 H6242 H505 cubits, and the width H7341 shall be [fn]20,000 H6235 H505. It shall be holy H6944 within all H3605 its boundary H1366 round H5439 about H5439.
Now when H1768 Daniel H1841 knew H3046 that the written H3792 document was signed H7560, he entered H5954 his house H1005 (now in H5954 his roof H5952 chamber H5952 he had windows H3551 open H6606 toward H5049 Jerusalem H3390); and he continued kneeling H1289 on his knees H1291 three H8532 times H2166 a day H3118, praying H6739 and giving H3029 thanks H3029 before H6925 his God H426, [fn]as he had been doing H5648 previously H6928.
Let the priests H3548, the ministers H8334 of Yahweh H3068,
Weep H1058 between H996 the porch H197 and the altar H4196,
And let them say H559, “Pity H2347 Your people H5971, O Yahweh H3068,
And do not make H5414 Your inheritance H5159 a reproach H2781,
A byword H4912 among the nations H1471.
Then Yahweh H3068 [fn]will answer H6030 and say H559 to His people H5971,
“Behold H2009, I am going to send H7971 you grain H1715, new H8492 wine H8492, and oil H3323,
And you will be H7646 satisfied H7646 in full with [fn]them;
And I will never H3808 again H5750 make H5414 you a reproach H2781 among the nations H1471.
I will gather H6908 all H3605 the nations H1471
And bring H3381 them down H3381 to the valley H6010 of [fn]Jehoshaphat H3092.
Then I will enter H8199 into H8199 judgment H8199 with them there H8033
On H5921 behalf H5921 of H5921 My people H5971 and My inheritance H5159, Israel H3478,
Whom H834 they have scattered H6340 among the nations H1471;
Then the remnant H7611 of Jacob H3290
Will be among the nations H1471,
Among H7130 many H7227 peoples H5971
Like a lion H738 among the beasts H929 of the forest H3293,
Like a young H3715 lion H3715 among flocks H5739 of sheep H6629,
Which H834, if H518 it passes H5674 through H5674,
Flocks H5739 will lie H7257 down H7257 in her midst H8432,
All H3605 the beasts H2416 of the nation H1471;
Both H1571 the [fn]pelican H6893 and the hedgehog H7090
Will lodge H3885 in [fn]the tops H3730 of H3730 her pillars H3730;
Their voice H6963 will sing H7891 in the window H2474,
