At that timeH6256 AbijahH29 the sonH1121 of JeroboamH3379 fell sickH2470.
And JeroboamH3379 saidH559 to his wifeH802, AriseH6965, I pray thee, and disguiseH8138 thyself, that thou be not knownH3045 to be the wifeH802 of JeroboamH3379; and getH1980 thee to ShilohH7887: behold, there is AhijahH281 the prophetH5030, which toldH1696 me that I should be kingH4428 over this peopleH5971.
And takeH3947 with theeH3027 tenH6235 loavesH3899, and cracknelsH5350, and a cruseH1228 of honeyH1706, and goH935 to him: he shall tellH5046 thee what shall become of the childH5288. {with…: Heb. in thine hand} {cracknels: or, cakes} {cruse: or, bottle}
And Jeroboam'sH3379 wifeH802 did soH6213, and aroseH6965, and wentH3212 to ShilohH7887, and cameH935 to the houseH1004 of AhijahH281. But AhijahH281 couldH3201 not seeH7200; for his eyesH5869 were setH6965 by reason of his ageH7869. {were…: Heb. stood for his hoariness}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto AhijahH281, Behold, the wifeH802 of JeroboamH3379 comethH935 to askH1875 a thingH1697 of thee for her sonH1121; for he is sickH2470: thusH2090 and thus shalt thou sayH1696 unto her: for it shall be, when she cometh inH935, that she shall feign herself to be anotherH5234 woman.
And it was so, when AhijahH281 heardH8085 the soundH6963 of her feetH7272, as she came inH935 at the doorH6607, that he saidH559, Come inH935, thou wifeH802 of JeroboamH3379; why feignest thou thyself to be anotherH5234? for I am sentH7971 to thee with heavyH7186 tidings. {heavy: Heb. hard}
GoH3212, tellH559 JeroboamH3379, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Forasmuch asH3282 I exaltedH7311 thee from amongH8432 the peopleH5971, and madeH5414 thee princeH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478,
And rentH7167 the kingdomH4467 awayH7167 from the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, and gaveH5414 it thee: and yet thou hast not been as my servantH5650 DavidH1732, who keptH8104 my commandmentsH4687, and who followedH1980+H310 me with all his heartH3824, to doH6213 that only which was rightH3477 in mine eyesH5869;
But hast doneH6213 evilH7489 above all that were beforeH6440 thee: for thou hast goneH3212 and madeH6213 thee otherH312 godsH430, and molten imagesH4541, to provoke me to angerH3707, and hast castH7993 me behindH310 thy backH1458:
Therefore, behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379, and will cut offH3772 from JeroboamH3379 him that pissethH8366 against the wallH7023, and him that is shut upH6113 and leftH5800 in IsraelH3478, and will take awayH1197 the remnantH310 of the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379, as a man taketh awayH1197 dungH1557, till it be all goneH8552.
Him that diethH4191 of JeroboamH3379 in the cityH5892 shall the dogsH3611 eatH398; and him that diethH4191 in the fieldH7704 shall the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064 eatH398: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
AriseH6965 thou therefore, getH3212 thee to thine own houseH1004: and when thy feetH7272 enterH935 into the cityH5892, the childH3206 shall dieH4191.
And all IsraelH3478 shall mournH5594 for him, and buryH6912 him: for he only of JeroboamH3379 shall comeH935 to the graveH6913, because in him there is foundH4672 some goodH2896 thingH1697 toward the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 in the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379.
Moreover the LORDH3068 shall raise him upH6965 a kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, who shall cut offH3772 the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 that dayH3117: but what? even now.
For the LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 IsraelH3478, as a reedH7070 is shakenH5110 in the waterH4325, and he shall root upH5428 IsraelH3478 out of this goodH2896 landH127, which he gaveH5414 to their fathersH1, and shall scatterH2219 them beyondH5676 the riverH5104, because they have madeH6213 their grovesH842, provoking the LORDH3068 to angerH3707.
And he shall giveH5414 IsraelH3478 upH5414 becauseH1558 of the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379, who did sinH2398, and who made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And Jeroboam'sH3379 wifeH802 aroseH6965, and departedH3212, and cameH935 to TirzahH8656: and when she cameH935 to the thresholdH5592 of the doorH1004, the childH5288 diedH4191;
And they buriedH6912 him; and all IsraelH3478 mournedH5594 for him, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 by the handH3027 of his servantH5650 AhijahH281 the prophetH5030.
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JeroboamH3379, how he warredH3898, and how he reignedH4427, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.
And the daysH3117 which JeroboamH3379 reignedH4427 were twoH8147 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141: and he sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and NadabH5070 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. {slept: Heb. lay down}
And RehoboamH7346 the sonH1121 of SolomonH8010 reignedH4427 in JudahH3063. RehoboamH7346 was fortyH705 and oneH259 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 seventeenH7651+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389, the cityH5892 which the LORDH3068 did chooseH977 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, to putH7760 his nameH8034 there. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was NaamahH5279 an AmmonitessH5985.
And JudahH3063 didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, and they provoked him to jealousyH7065 with their sinsH2403 which they had committedH2398, above all that their fathersH1 had doneH6213.
For they also builtH1129 them high placesH1116, and imagesH4676, and grovesH842, on every highH1364 hillH1389, and under every greenH7488 treeH6086. {images: or, standing images, or, statues}
And there were also sodomitesH6945 in the landH776: and they didH6213 according to all the abominationsH8441 of the nationsH1471 which the LORDH3068 cast outH3423 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And it came to pass in the fifthH2549 yearH8141 of kingH4428 RehoboamH7346, that ShishakH7895 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 came upH5927 against JerusalemH3389:
And he took awayH3947 the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004; he even took awayH3947 all: and he took awayH3947 all the shieldsH4043 of goldH2091 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213.
And kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 madeH6213 in their stead brasenH5178 shieldsH4043, and committedH6485 them unto the handsH3027 of the chiefH8269 of the guardH7323, which keptH8104 the doorH6607 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004. {guard: Heb. runners}
And it was so, whenH1767 the kingH4428 wentH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, that the guardH7323 bareH5375 them, and brought them backH7725 into the guardH7323 chamberH8372.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of RehoboamH7346, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063?
And there was warH4421 between RehoboamH7346 and JeroboamH3379 all their daysH3117.
And RehoboamH7346 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was NaamahH5279 an AmmonitessH5985. And AbijamH38 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.

He takethH3920 the wiseH2450 in their own craftinessH6193: and the counselH6098 of the frowardH6617 is carried headlongH4116.
And JeroboamH3379 saidH559 to his wifeH802, AriseH6965, I pray thee, and disguiseH8138 thyself, that thou be not knownH3045 to be the wifeH802 of JeroboamH3379; and getH1980 thee to ShilohH7887: behold, there is AhijahH281 the prophetH5030, which toldH1696 me that I should be kingH4428 over this peopleH5971.
Therefore, behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379, and will cut offH3772 from JeroboamH3379 him that pissethH8366 against the wallH7023, and him that is shut upH6113 and leftH5800 in IsraelH3478, and will take awayH1197 the remnantH310 of the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379, as a man taketh awayH1197 dungH1557, till it be all goneH8552.
The LORDH3068 bringethH6331 the counselH6098 of the heathenH1471 to noughtH6331: he makethH5106 the devicesH4284 of the peopleH5971 of none effectH5106. {bringeth: Heb. maketh frustrate}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto AhijahH281, Behold, the wifeH802 of JeroboamH3379 comethH935 to askH1875 a thingH1697 of thee for her sonH1121; for he is sickH2470: thusH2090 and thus shalt thou sayH1696 unto her: for it shall be, when she cometh inH935, that she shall feign herself to be anotherH5234 woman.
Him that diethH4191 of JeroboamH3379 in the cityH5892 shall the dogsH3611 eatH398; and him that diethH4191 in the fieldH7704 shall the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064 eatH398: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
SonH1121 of manH120, these menH582 have set upH5927 their idolsH1544 in their heartH3820, and putH5414 the stumblingblockH4383 of their iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 their faceH6440: should I be enquiredH1875 of at allH1875 by them?
Therefore speakH1696 unto them, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Every manH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 that setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to the prophetH5030; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him that comethH935 according to the multitudeH7230 of his idolsH1544;
That I may takeH8610 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 in their own heartH3820, because they are all estrangedH2114 from me through their idolsH1544.
And it came to pass, as they satH3427 at the tableH7979, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto the prophetH5030 that brought him backH7725:
And he criedH7121 unto the manH376 of GodH430 that cameH935 from JudahH3063, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Forasmuch asH3282 thou hast disobeyedH4784 the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068, and hast not keptH8104 the commandmentH4687 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee,
But camest backH7725, and hast eatenH398 breadH3899 and drunkH8354 waterH4325 in the placeH4725, of the which the LORD did sayH1696 to thee, EatH398 no breadH3899, and drinkH8354 no waterH4325; thy carcaseH5038 shall not comeH935 unto the sepulchreH6913 of thy fathersH1.
For every oneH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 in IsraelH3478, which separatethH5144 himself from meH310, and setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to a prophetH5030 to enquireH1875 of him concerning me; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him by myself:
And he saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Because thou hast let goH7971 out of thy handH3027 a manH376 whom I appointed to utter destructionH2764, therefore thy lifeH5315 shall go for his lifeH5315, and thy peopleH5971 for his peopleH5971.
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and will makeH8074 him a signH226 and a proverbH4912, and I will cut him offH3772 from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
AriseH6965, go downH3381 to meetH7125 AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, which is in SamariaH8111: behold, he is in the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022, whither he is gone downH3381 to possessH3423 it.
And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Hast thou killedH7523, and also taken possessionH3423? And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In the placeH4725 where dogsH3611 lickedH3952 the bloodH1818 of NabothH5022 shall dogsH3611 lickH3952 thy bloodH1818, even thine.
And AhabH256 saidH559 to ElijahH452, Hast thou foundH4672 me, O mine enemyH341? And he answeredH559, I have foundH4672 thee: because thou hast soldH4376 thyself to workH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon thee, and will take awayH1197 thy posterityH310, and will cut offH3772 from AhabH256 him that pissethH8366 against the wallH7023, and him that is shut upH6113 and leftH5800 in IsraelH3478,
And will makeH5414 thine houseH1004 like the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, and like the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281, for the provocationH3708 wherewith thou hast provoked me to angerH3707, and made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And of JezebelH348 also spakeH1696 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, The dogsH3611 shall eatH398 JezebelH348 by the wallH2426 of JezreelH3157. {wall: or, ditch}
Him that diethH4191 of AhabH256 in the cityH5892 the dogsH3611 shall eatH398; and him that diethH4191 in the fieldH7704 shall the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064 eatH398.
AndG2532 they watchedG3906 him, and sent forthG649 spiesG1455, which should feignG5271+G1511 themselvesG1438 just menG1342, thatG2443 they might take holdG1949 of hisG846 wordsG3056, that soG1519 they might deliverG3860 himG846 unto the powerG746 andG2532 authorityG1849 of the governorG2232.
AndG2532 they askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, MasterG1320, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou sayestG3004 andG2532 teachestG1321 rightlyG3723+G2532, neitherG3756 acceptest thouG2983 the personG4383 of any, butG235 teachestG1321 the wayG3598 of GodG2316 trulyG225+G1909: {truly: or, of a truth}
Is it lawfulG1832 for usG2254 to giveG1325 tributeG5411 unto CaesarG2541, orG2228 noG3756?
ButG1161 he perceivedG2657 theirG846 craftinessG3834, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, WhyG5101 tempt yeG3985 meG3165?
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JehoshaphatH3092, There is yet oneH259 manH376, MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of ImlahH3229, by whom we may enquireH1875 of the LORDH3068: but I hateH8130 him; for he doth not prophesyH5012 goodH2896 concerning me, but evilH7451. And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, Let not the kingH4428 sayH559 so.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036, AnaniasG367, whyG1302 hath SatanG4567 filledG4137 thineG4675 heartG2588+G4571 to lieG5574 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to keep backG3557 part ofG575 the priceG5092 of the landG5564? {to lie to: or, to deceive}
Whiles it remainedG3306, was it notG3780 thine ownG4671+G3306? andG2532 after it was soldG4097, was it notG5225 inG1722 thine ownG4674 powerG1849? whyG5101+G3754 hast thou conceivedG5087 thisG5124 thingG4229 inG1722 thineG4675 heartG2588? thou hastG5574 notG3756 liedG5574 unto menG444, butG235 unto GodG2316.
AndG1161 AnaniasG367 hearingG191 theseG5128 wordsG3056 fell downG4098, and gave up the ghostG1634: andG2532 greatG3173 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 them that heardG191 these thingsG5023.
Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, StayH7503, and I will tellH5046 thee what the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 to me this nightH3915. And he saidH559 unto him, Say onH1696.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036 untoG4314 herG846, HowG5101 is it thatG3754 yeG5213 have agreed togetherG4856 to temptG3985 the SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962? beholdG2400, the feetG4228 of them which have buriedG2290 thyG4675 husbandG435 are atG1909 the doorG2374, andG2532 shall carryG1627 theeG4571 outG1627.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, I will not returnH7725 with thee: for thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and the LORDH3068 hath rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
ThenG1161 fell she downG4098 straightwayG3916 atG3844 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 yielded up the ghostG1634: andG1161 the young menG3495 came inG1525, and foundG2147 herG846 deadG3498, andG2532, carrying her forthG1627, buriedG2290 her byG4314 herG846 husbandG435.
BecauseH834 thou obeyedstH8085 not the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, nor executedstH6213 his fierceH2740 wrathH639 upon AmalekH6002, therefore hath the LORDH3068 doneH6213 this thingH1697 unto thee this dayH3117.
NeitherG2532+G3756 is thereG2076 any creatureG2937 that is not manifestG852 in hisG846 sightG1799: butG1161 all thingsG3956 are nakedG1131 andG2532 openedG5136 unto the eyesG3788 of himG846 withG4314 whomG3739 we haveG2254 to doG3056.
EnquireH1875, I pray thee, of the LORDH3068 for usH1157; for NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 maketh warH3898 against us; if so be that the LORDH3068 will dealH6213 with us according to all his wondrous worksH6381, that he may go upH5927 from us.
Then saidH559 JeremiahH3414 unto them, Thus shall ye sayH559 to ZedekiahH6667:
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will turn backH5437 the weaponsH3627 of warH4421 that are in your handsH3027, wherewith ye fightH3898 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and against the ChaldeansH3778, which besiegeH6696 you withoutH2351 the wallsH2346, and I will assembleH622 them into the midstH8432 of this cityH5892.
And I myself will fightH3898 against you with an outstretchedH5186 handH3027 and with a strongH2389 armH2220, even in angerH639, and in furyH2534, and in greatH1419 wrathH7110.
And I will smiteH5221 the inhabitantsH3427 of this cityH5892, both manH120 and beastH929: they shall dieH4191 of a greatH1419 pestilenceH1698.
And afterwardH310, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will deliverH5414 ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and his servantsH5650, and the peopleH5971, and such as are leftH7604 in this cityH5892 from the pestilenceH1698, from the swordH2719, and from the famineH7458, into the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and into the handH3027 of their enemiesH341, and into the handH3027 of those that seekH1245 their lifeH5315: and he shall smiteH5221 them with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; he shall not spareH2347 them, neither have pityH2550, nor have mercyH7355.
For they are impudentH7186+H6440 childrenH1121 and stiffheartedH2389+H3820. I do sendH7971 thee unto them; and thou shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069. {impudent: Heb. hard of face}
And they, whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbearH2308, (for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004,) yet shall knowH3045 that there hath been a prophetH5030 amongH8432 them.
ThenH116 DanielH1841, whose nameH8036 was BelteshazzarH1096, was astoniedH8075 for oneH2298 hourH8160, and his thoughtsH7476 troubledH927 him. The kingH4430 spakeH6032, and saidH560, BelteshazzarH1096, let notH409 the dreamH2493, or the interpretationH6591 thereof, troubleH927 thee. BelteshazzarH1096 answeredH6032 and saidH560, My lordH4756, the dreamH2493 be to them that hateH8131 thee, and the interpretationH6591 thereof to thine enemiesH6146.
The treeH363 that thou sawestH2370, which grewH7236, and was strongH8631, whose heightH7314 reachedH4291 unto the heavenH8065, and the sightH2379 thereof to allH3606 the earthH772;
Whose leavesH6074 were fairH8209, and the fruitH4 thereof muchH7690, and in it was meatH4203 for allH3606; underH8460 which the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251 dweltH1753, and upon whose branchesH6056 the fowlsH6853 of the heavenH8065 had their habitationH7932:
It is thouH607, O kingH4430, that art grownH7236 and become strongH8631: for thy greatnessH7238 is grownH7236, and reachethH4291 unto heavenH8065, and thy dominionH7985 to the endH5491 of the earthH772.
And whereas the kingH4430 sawH2370 a watcherH5894 and an holy oneH6922 coming downH5182 fromH4481 heavenH8065, and sayingH560, HewH1414 the treeH363 downH1414, and destroyH2255 it; yetH1297 leaveH7662 the stumpH6136 of the rootsH8330 thereof in the earthH772, even with a bandH613 of ironH6523 and brassH5174, in the tender grassH1883 of the fieldH1251; and let it be wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and let his portionH2508 be withH5974 the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, tillH5705 sevenH7655 timesH5732 passH2499 overH5922 him;
ThisH1836 is the interpretationH6591, O kingH4430, and thisH1932 is the decreeH1510 of the most HighH5943, which is comeH4291 uponH5922 my lordH4756 the kingH4430:
That they shall driveH2957 thee fromH4481 menH606, and thy dwellingH4070 shall beH1934 withH5974 the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, and they shall make thee to eatH2939 grassH6211 as oxenH8450, and they shall wetH6647 thee with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and sevenH7655 timesH5732 shall passH2499 overH5922 thee, tillH5705 thou knowH3046 that the most HighH5943 rulethH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and givethH5415 it to whomsoeverH4479 he willH6634.
ThenH116 DanielH1841, whose nameH8036 was BelteshazzarH1096, was astoniedH8075 for oneH2298 hourH8160, and his thoughtsH7476 troubledH927 him.

The treeH363 that thou sawestH2370, which grewH7236, and was strongH8631, whose heightH7314 reachedH4291 unto the heavenH8065, and the sightH2379 thereof to allH3606 the earthH772;

It is thouH607, O kingH4430, that art grownH7236 and become strongH8631: for thy greatnessH7238 is grownH7236, and reachethH4291 unto heavenH8065, and thy dominionH7985 to the endH5491 of the earthH772.
And whereas the kingH4430 sawH2370 a watcherH5894 and an holy oneH6922 coming downH5182 fromH4481 heavenH8065, and sayingH560, HewH1414 the treeH363 downH1414, and destroyH2255 it; yetH1297 leaveH7662 the stumpH6136 of the rootsH8330 thereof in the earthH772, even with a bandH613 of ironH6523 and brassH5174, in the tender grassH1883 of the fieldH1251; and let it be wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and let his portionH2508 be withH5974 the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, tillH5705 sevenH7655 timesH5732 passH2499 overH5922 him;
ThisH1836 is the interpretationH6591, O kingH4430, and thisH1932 is the decreeH1510 of the most HighH5943, which is comeH4291 uponH5922 my lordH4756 the kingH4430:
That they shall driveH2957 thee fromH4481 menH606, and thy dwellingH4070 shall beH1934 withH5974 the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, and they shall make thee to eatH2939 grassH6211 as oxenH8450, and they shall wetH6647 thee with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and sevenH7655 timesH5732 shall passH2499 overH5922 thee, tillH5705 thou knowH3046 that the most HighH5943 rulethH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and givethH5415 it to whomsoeverH4479 he willH6634.
ThenH116 DanielH1841 answeredH6032 and saidH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, Let thy giftsH4978 beH1934 to thyself, and giveH3052 thy rewardsH5023 to anotherH321; yetH1297 I will readH7123 the writingH3792 unto the kingH4430, and make knownH3046 to him the interpretationH6591. {rewards: or, fee}
O thouH607 kingH4430, the most highH5943 GodH426 gaveH3052 NebuchadnezzarH5020 thy fatherH2 a kingdomH4437, and majestyH7238, and gloryH3367, and honourH1923:
And forH4481 the majestyH7238 that he gaveH3052 him, allH3606 peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, trembledH1934+H2112 and fearedH1763 beforeH4481 himH6925: whom he wouldH1934+H6634 he slewH1934+H6992; and whom he wouldH1934+H6634 he kept aliveH1934+H2418; and whom he wouldH1934+H6634 he set upH1934+H7313; and whom he wouldH1934+H6634 he put downH1934+H8214.
But when his heartH3825 was lifted upH7313, and his mindH7308 hardenedH8631 in prideH2103, he was deposedH5182 fromH4481 his kinglyH4437 throneH3764, and they tookH5709 his gloryH3367 from himH4481: {in pride: or, to deal proudly} {deposed: Cald. made to come down}
And he was drivenH2957 fromH4481 the sonsH1123 of menH606; and his heartH3825 was madeH7739 likeH5974 the beastsH2423, and his dwellingH4070 was with the wild assesH6167: they fedH2939 him with grassH6211 like oxenH8450, and his bodyH1655 was wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065; tillH5705 he knewH3046 that the most highH5943 GodH426 ruledH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and that he appointethH6966 overH5922 it whomsoeverH4479 he willH6634. {his heart…: or, he made his heart equal, etc}
And thouH607 his sonH1247, O BelshazzarH1113, hast notH3809 humbledH8214 thine heartH3825, thoughH6903 thou knewestH3046 allH3606 thisH1836;
But hast lifted upH7313 thyself againstH5922 the LordH4756 of heavenH8065; and they have broughtH858 the vesselsH3984 of his houseH1005 beforeH6925 thee, and thouH607, and thy lordsH7261, thy wivesH7695, and thy concubinesH3904, have drunkH8355 wineH2562 in them; and thou hast praisedH7624 the godsH426 of silverH3702, and goldH1722, of brassH5174, ironH6523, woodH636, and stoneH69, which seeH2370 notH3809, norH3809 hearH8086, norH3809 knowH3046: and the GodH426 in whose handH3028 thy breathH5396 is, and whose are allH3606 thy waysH735, hast thou notH3809 glorifiedH1922:
ThenH116 was the partH6447 of the handH3028 sentH7972 fromH4481 himH6925; and thisH1836 writingH3792 was writtenH7560.
And thisH1836 is the writingH3792 that was writtenH7560, MENEH4484, MENEH4484, TEKELH8625, UPHARSINH6537.
ThisH1836 is the interpretationH6591 of the thingH4406: MENEH4484; GodH426 hath numberedH4483 thy kingdomH4437, and finishedH8000 it.
TEKELH8625; Thou art weighedH8625 in the balancesH3977, and art foundH7912 wantingH2627.
PERESH6537; Thy kingdomH4437 is dividedH6537, and givenH3052 to the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540.
