Now in the twentyH6242 and fourthH702 dayH3117 of this monthH2320 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were assembledH622 with fastingH6685, and with sackclothesH8242, and earthH127 upon them.
And the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 separatedH914 themselves from all strangersH1121+H5236, and stoodH5975 and confessedH3034 their sinsH2403, and the iniquitiesH5771 of their fathersH1. {strangers: Heb. strange children}
And they stood upH6965 in their placeH5977, and readH7121 in the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430 one fourth partH7243 of the dayH3117; and another fourth partH7243 they confessedH3034, and worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
Then stood upH6965 upon the stairsH4608, of the LevitesH3881, JeshuaH3442, and BaniH1137, KadmielH6934, ShebaniahH7645, BunniH1138, SherebiahH8274, BaniH1137, and ChenaniH3662, and criedH2199 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963 unto the LORDH3068 their GodH430. {stairs: or, scaffold}
Then the LevitesH3881, JeshuaH3442, and KadmielH6934, BaniH1137, HashabniahH2813, SherebiahH8274, HodijahH1941, ShebaniahH7645, and PethahiahH6611, saidH559, Stand upH6965 and blessH1288 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 for everH5769 and everH5769: and blessedH1288 be thy gloriousH3519 nameH8034, which is exaltedH7311 above all blessingH1293 and praiseH8416.
Thou, even thou, art LORDH3068 alone; thou hast madeH6213 heavenH8064, the heavenH8064 of heavensH8064, with all their hostH6635, the earthH776, and all things that are therein, the seasH3220, and all that is therein, and thou preservestH2421 them all; and the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 worshippethH7812 thee.
Thou art the LORDH3068 the GodH430, who didst chooseH977 AbramH87, and broughtest him forthH3318 out of UrH218 of the ChaldeesH3778, and gavestH7760 him the nameH8034 of AbrahamH85;
And foundestH4672 his heartH3824 faithfulH539 beforeH6440 thee, and madestH3772 a covenantH1285 with him to giveH5414 the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, the HittitesH2850, the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the JebusitesH2983, and the GirgashitesH1622, to giveH5414 it, I say, to his seedH2233, and hast performedH6965 thy wordsH1697; for thou art righteousH6662:
And didst seeH7200 the afflictionH6040 of our fathersH1 in EgyptH4714, and heardestH8085 their cryH2201 by the RedH5488 seaH3220;
And shewedstH5414 signsH226 and wondersH4159 upon PharaohH6547, and on all his servantsH5650, and on all the peopleH5971 of his landH776: for thou knewestH3045 that they dealt proudlyH2102 against them. So didst thou getH6213 thee a nameH8034, as it is this dayH3117.
And thou didst divideH1234 the seaH3220 beforeH6440 them, so that they went throughH5674 the midstH8432 of the seaH3220 on the dry landH3004; and their persecutorsH7291 thou threwestH7993 into the deepsH4688, as a stoneH68 into the mightyH5794 watersH4325.
Moreover thou leddestH5148 them in the dayH3119 by a cloudyH6051 pillarH5982; and in the nightH3915 by a pillarH5982 of fireH784, to give them lightH215 in the wayH1870 wherein they should goH3212.
Thou camest downH3381 also upon mountH2022 SinaiH5514, and spakestH1696 with them from heavenH8064, and gavestH5414 them rightH3477 judgmentsH4941, and trueH571 lawsH8451, goodH2896 statutesH2706 and commandmentsH4687: {true…: Heb. laws of truth}
And madest knownH3045 unto them thy holyH6944 sabbathH7676, and commandedstH6680 them preceptsH4687, statutesH2706, and lawsH8451, by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 thy servantH5650:
And gavestH5414 them breadH3899 from heavenH8064 for their hungerH7458, and broughtest forthH3318 waterH4325 for them out of the rockH5553 for their thirstH6772, and promisedstH559 them that they should go inH935 to possessH3423 the landH776 which thou hadst swornH3027+H5375 to giveH5414 them. {which…: Heb. which thou hadst lift up thine hand to give them}
But they and our fathersH1 dealt proudlyH2102, and hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, and hearkenedH8085 not to thy commandmentsH4687,
And refusedH3985 to obeyH8085, neither were mindfulH2142 of thy wondersH6381 that thou didstH6213 among them; but hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, and in their rebellionH4805 appointedH5414 a captainH7218 to returnH7725 to their bondageH5659: but thou art a GodH433 ready to pardonH5547, graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and forsookestH5800 them not. {a God…: Heb. a God of pardons}
Yea, when they had madeH6213 them a moltenH4541 calfH5695, and saidH559, This is thy GodH430 that brought thee upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, and had wroughtH6213 greatH1419 provocationsH5007;
Yet thou in thy manifoldH7227 merciesH7356 forsookestH5800 them not in the wildernessH4057: the pillarH5982 of the cloudH6051 departedH5493 not from them by dayH3119, to leadH5148 them in the wayH1870; neither the pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915, to shew them lightH215, and the wayH1870 wherein they should goH3212.
Thou gavestH5414 also thy goodH2896 spiritH7307 to instructH7919 them, and withheldestH4513 not thy mannaH4478 from their mouthH6310, and gavestH5414 them waterH4325 for their thirstH6772.
Yea, fortyH705 yearsH8141 didst thou sustainH3557 them in the wildernessH4057, so that they lackedH2637 nothing; their clothesH8008 waxed not oldH1086, and their feetH7272 swelledH1216 not.
Moreover thou gavestH5414 them kingdomsH4467 and nationsH5971, and didst divideH2505 them into cornersH6285: so they possessedH3423 the landH776 of SihonH5511, and the landH776 of the kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809, and the landH776 of OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316.
Their childrenH1121 also multipliedstH7235 thou as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064, and broughtestH935 them into the landH776, concerning which thou hadst promisedH559 to their fathersH1, that they should go inH935 to possessH3423 it.
So the childrenH1121 went inH935 and possessedH3423 the landH776, and thou subduedstH3665 beforeH6440 them the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, the CanaanitesH3669, and gavestH5414 them into their handsH3027, with their kingsH4428, and the peopleH5971 of the landH776, that they might doH6213 with them as they wouldH7522. {as they…: Heb. according to their will}
And they tookH3920 strongH1219 citiesH5892, and a fatH8082 landH127, and possessedH3423 housesH1004 fullH4392 of all goodsH2898, wellsH953 diggedH2672, vineyardsH3754, and oliveyardsH2132, and fruitH3978 treesH6086 in abundanceH7230: so they did eatH398, and were filledH7646, and became fatH8080, and delightedH5727 themselves in thy greatH1419 goodnessH2898. {wells: or, cisterns} {fruit…: Heb. tree of food}
Nevertheless they were disobedientH4784, and rebelledH4775 against thee, and castH7993 thy lawH8451 behindH310 their backsH1458, and slewH2026 thy prophetsH5030 which testifiedH5749 against them to turnH7725 them to thee, and they wroughtH6213 greatH1419 provocationsH5007.
Therefore thou deliveredstH5414 them into the handH3027 of their enemiesH6862, who vexedH6887 them: and in the timeH6256 of their troubleH6869, when they criedH6817 unto thee, thou heardestH8085 them from heavenH8064; and according to thy manifoldH7227 merciesH7356 thou gavestH5414 them savioursH3467, who savedH3467 them out of the handH3027 of their enemiesH6862.
But after they had restH5117, they didH6213 evilH7451 againH7725 beforeH6440 thee: therefore leftestH5800 thou them in the handH3027 of their enemiesH341, so that they had the dominionH7287 over them: yet when they returnedH7725, and criedH2199 unto thee, thou heardestH8085 them from heavenH8064; and manyH7227 timesH6256 didst thou deliverH5337 them according to thy merciesH7356; {they did…: Heb. they returned to do evil}
And testifiedstH5749 against them, that thou mightest bring them againH7725 unto thy lawH8451: yet they dealt proudlyH2102, and hearkenedH8085 not unto thy commandmentsH4687, but sinnedH2398 against thy judgmentsH4941, (which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall liveH2421 in them;) and withdrewH5414+H5637 the shoulderH3802, and hardenedH7185 their neckH6203, and would not hearH8085. {withdrew…: Heb. they gave a withdrawing shoulder}
Yet manyH7227 yearsH8141 didst thou forbearH4900 them, and testifiedstH5749 against them by thy spiritH7307 inH3027 thy prophetsH5030: yet would they not give earH238: therefore gavestH5414 thou them into the handH3027 of the peopleH5971 of the landsH776. {forbear…: Heb. protract over them} {in thy…: Heb. in the hand of thy prophets}
Nevertheless for thy greatH7227 mercies'H7356 sake thou didstH6213 not utterly consumeH3617 them, nor forsakeH5800 them; for thou art a graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349 GodH410.
Now therefore, our GodH430, the greatH1419, the mightyH1368, and the terribleH3372 GodH410, who keepestH8104 covenantH1285 and mercyH2617, let not all the troubleH8513 seem littleH4591 beforeH6440 thee, that hath comeH4672 upon us, on our kingsH4428, on our princesH8269, and on our priestsH3548, and on our prophetsH5030, and on our fathersH1, and on all thy peopleH5971, since the timeH3117 of the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 unto this dayH3117. {trouble: Heb. weariness} {that…: Heb. that hath found us}
Howbeit thou art justH6662 in all that is broughtH935 upon us; for thou hast doneH6213 rightH571, but we have done wickedlyH7561:
Neither have our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, our priestsH3548, nor our fathersH1, keptH6213 thy lawH8451, nor hearkenedH7181 unto thy commandmentsH4687 and thy testimoniesH5715, wherewith thou didst testifyH5749 against them.
For they have not servedH5647 thee in their kingdomH4438, and in thy greatH7227 goodnessH2898 that thou gavestH5414 them, and in the largeH7342 and fatH8082 landH776 which thou gavestH5414 beforeH6440 them, neither turnedH7725 they from their wickedH7451 worksH4611.
Behold, we are servantsH5650 this dayH3117, and for the landH776 that thou gavestH5414 unto our fathersH1 to eatH398 the fruitH6529 thereof and the goodH2898 thereof, behold, we are servantsH5650 in it:
And it yieldeth muchH7235 increaseH8393 unto the kingsH4428 whom thou hast setH5414 over us because of our sinsH2403: also they have dominionH4910 over our bodiesH1472, and over our cattleH929, at their pleasureH7522, and we are in greatH1419 distressH6869.
And because of all this we makeH3772 a sureH548 covenant, and writeH3789 it; and our princesH8269, LevitesH3881, and priestsH3548, sealH2856 unto it. {seal: Heb. are at the sealing, or, sealed}

And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Behold, thou shalt sleepH7901 with thy fathersH1; and this peopleH5971 will rise upH6965, and go a whoringH2181 afterH310 the godsH430 of the strangersH5236 of the landH776, whither they goH935 to be amongH7130 them, and will forsakeH5800 me, and breakH6565 my covenantH1285 which I have madeH3772 with them. {sleep: Heb. lie down}
Then my angerH639 shall be kindledH2734 against them in that dayH3117, and I will forsakeH5800 them, and I will hideH5641 my faceH6440 from them, and they shall be devouredH398, and manyH7227 evilsH7451 and troublesH6869 shall befallH4672 them; so that they will sayH559 in that dayH3117, Are not these evilsH7451 comeH4672 upon us, because our GodH430 is not amongH7130 us? {befall: Heb. find}
And I will surelyH5641 hideH5641 my faceH6440 in that dayH3117 for all the evilsH7451 which they shall have wroughtH6213, in thatH3588 they are turnedH6437 unto otherH312 godsH430.
But if from thence thou shalt seekH1245 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, thou shalt findH4672 him, if thou seekH1875 him with all thy heartH3824 and with all thy soulH5315.
When thou art in tribulationH6862, and all these thingsH1697 are comeH4672 upon thee, even in the latterH319 daysH3117, if thou turnH7725 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and shalt be obedientH8085 unto his voiceH6963; {are…: Heb. have found thee}
(For the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is a mercifulH7349 GodH410;) he will not forsakeH7503 thee, neither destroyH7843 thee, nor forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of thy fathersH1 which he swareH7650 unto them.
And when the LORDH3068 raisedH6965 them up judgesH8199, then the LORDH3068 was with the judgeH8199, and deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of their enemiesH341 all the daysH3117 of the judgeH8199: for it repentedH5162 the LORDH3068 becauseH6440 of their groaningsH5009 by reason of them that oppressedH3905 them and vexedH1766 them.
And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he deliveredH5414 them into the handsH3027 of spoilersH8154 that spoiledH8155 them, and he soldH4376 them into the handsH3027 of their enemiesH341 round aboutH5439, so that they couldH3201 not any longerH5750 standH5975 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341.
But when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, the LORDH3068 raised them upH6965 a delivererH3467, EhudH164 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617, a BenjamiteH1145, a manH376 lefthandedH334+H3225: and by himH3027 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sentH7971 a presentH4503 unto EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124. {a Benjamite: or, the son of Jemini} {lefthanded: Heb. shut of his right hand}
And when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, the LORDH3068 raised upH6965 a delivererH3467 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, who deliveredH3467 them, even OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb'sH3612 youngerH6996 brotherH251. {deliverer: Heb. saviour}
And the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 came upon him, and he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478, and went outH3318 to warH4421: and the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 ChushanrishathaimH3573 kingH4428 of MesopotamiaH763 into his handH3027; and his handH3027 prevailedH5810 against ChushanrishathaimH3573. {came: Heb. was} {Mesopotamia: Heb. Aram}
And the landH776 had restH8252 fortyH705 yearsH8141. And OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073 diedH4191.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 evilH7451 againH3254 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: and the LORDH3068 strengthenedH2388 EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 against IsraelH3478, because they had doneH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
And he gatheredH622 unto him the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 and AmalekH6002, and wentH3212 and smoteH5221 IsraelH3478, and possessedH3423 the cityH5892 of palm treesH8558+H5899.
So the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 servedH5647 EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 eighteenH8083+H6240 yearsH8141.
But when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, the LORDH3068 raised them upH6965 a delivererH3467, EhudH164 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617, a BenjamiteH1145, a manH376 lefthandedH334+H3225: and by himH3027 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sentH7971 a presentH4503 unto EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124. {a Benjamite: or, the son of Jemini} {lefthanded: Heb. shut of his right hand}
Whithersoever they went outH3318, the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was against them for evilH7451, as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696, and as the LORDH3068 had swornH7650 unto them: and they were greatlyH3966 distressedH3334.
And IsraelH3478 was greatlyH3966 impoverishedH1809 becauseH6440 of the MidianitesH4080; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068.
And it came to pass, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068 becauseH182 of the MidianitesH4080,
That the LORDH3068 sentH7971 a prophetH376+H5030 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, which saidH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I brought you upH5927 from EgyptH4714, and brought you forthH3318 out of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650; {a prophet: Heb. a man a prophet}
And I deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and out of the handH3027 of all that oppressedH3905 you, and drave them outH1644 from beforeH6440 you, and gaveH5414 you their landH776;
And I saidH559 unto you, I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430; fearH3372 not the godsH430 of the AmoritesH567, in whose landH776 ye dwellH3427: but ye have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963.
And they criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, We have sinnedH2398, because we have forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068, and have servedH5647 BaalimH1168 and AshtarothH6252: but now deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of our enemiesH341, and we will serveH5647 thee.
Therefore the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he soldH4376 them into the handH3027 of ChushanrishathaimH3573 kingH4428 of MesopotamiaH763: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 servedH5647 ChushanrishathaimH3573 eightH8083 yearsH8141. {Mesopotamia: Heb. Aramnaharaim}
And when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, the LORDH3068 raised upH6965 a delivererH3467 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, who deliveredH3467 them, even OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb'sH3612 youngerH6996 brotherH251. {deliverer: Heb. saviour}
And the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 came upon him, and he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478, and went outH3318 to warH4421: and the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 ChushanrishathaimH3573 kingH4428 of MesopotamiaH763 into his handH3027; and his handH3027 prevailedH5810 against ChushanrishathaimH3573. {came: Heb. was} {Mesopotamia: Heb. Aram}
And the landH776 had restH8252 fortyH705 yearsH8141. And OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073 diedH4191.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 evilH7451 againH3254 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: and the LORDH3068 strengthenedH2388 EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 against IsraelH3478, because they had doneH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
And he gatheredH622 unto him the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 and AmalekH6002, and wentH3212 and smoteH5221 IsraelH3478, and possessedH3423 the cityH5892 of palm treesH8558+H5899.
So the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 servedH5647 EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124 eighteenH8083+H6240 yearsH8141.
But when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068, the LORDH3068 raised them upH6965 a delivererH3467, EhudH164 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617, a BenjamiteH1145, a manH376 lefthandedH334+H3225: and by himH3027 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sentH7971 a presentH4503 unto EglonH5700 the kingH4428 of MoabH4124. {a Benjamite: or, the son of Jemini} {lefthanded: Heb. shut of his right hand}
But EhudH164 madeH6213 him a daggerH2719 which had twoH8147 edgesH6366, of a cubitH1574 lengthH753; and he did girdH2296 it under his raimentH4055 upon his rightH3225 thighH3409.
And he broughtH7126 the presentH4503 unto EglonH5700 kingH4428 of MoabH4124: and EglonH5700 was a veryH3966 fatH1277 manH376.
And when he had made an endH3615 to offerH7126 the presentH4503, he sent awayH7971 the peopleH5971 that bareH5375 the presentH4503.
But he himself turned againH7725 from the quarriesH6456 that were by GilgalH1537, and saidH559, I have a secretH5643 errandH1697 unto thee, O kingH4428: who saidH559, Keep silenceH2013. And all that stoodH5975 by him went outH3318 from him. {quarries: or, graven images}
And EhudH164 cameH935 unto him; and he was sittingH3427 in a summerH4747 parlourH5944, which he had for himself alone. And EhudH164 saidH559, I have a messageH1697 from GodH430 unto thee. And he aroseH6965 out of his seatH3678. {a summer…: Heb. a parlour of cooling}
And EhudH164 put forthH7971 his leftH8040 handH3027, and tookH3947 the daggerH2719 from his rightH3225 thighH3409, and thrustH8628 it into his bellyH990:
And the haftH5325 also went inH935 afterH310 the bladeH3851; and the fatH2459 closedH5462 uponH1157 the bladeH3851, so that he could not drawH8025 the daggerH2719 out of his bellyH990; and the dirtH6574 came outH3318. {the dirt…: or, it came out at the buttocks}
Then EhudH164 went forthH3318 through the porchH4528, and shutH5462 the doorsH1817 of the parlourH5944 upon him, and lockedH5274 them.
When he was gone outH3318, his servantsH5650 cameH935; and when they sawH7200 that, behold, the doorsH1817 of the parlourH5944 were lockedH5274, they saidH559, Surely he coverethH5526 his feetH7272 in his summerH4747 chamberH2315. {covereth…: or, doeth his easement}
And they tarriedH2342 till they were ashamedH954: and, behold, he openedH6605 not the doorsH1817 of the parlourH5944; therefore they tookH3947 a keyH4668, and openedH6605 them: and, behold, their lordH113 was fallen downH5307 deadH4191 on the earthH776.
And EhudH164 escapedH4422 while they tarriedH4102, and passed beyondH5674 the quarriesH6456, and escapedH4422 unto SeirathH8167.
And it came to pass, when he was comeH935, that he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782 in the mountainH2022 of EphraimH669, and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 went downH3381 with him from the mountH2022, and he beforeH6440 them.
And he saidH559 unto them, FollowH7291 afterH310 me: for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414 your enemiesH341 the MoabitesH4124 into your handH3027. And they went downH3381 afterH310 him, and tookH3920 the fordsH4569 of JordanH3383 toward MoabH4124, and sufferedH5414 not a manH376 to pass overH5674.
And they slewH5221 of MoabH4124 at that timeH6256 about tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376, all lustyH8082, and all menH376 of valourH2428; and there escapedH4422 not a manH376. {lusty: Heb. fat}
So MoabH4124 was subduedH3665 that dayH3117 under the handH3027 of IsraelH3478. And the landH776 had restH8252 fourscoreH8084 yearsH8141.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, We have sinnedH2398: doH6213 thou unto us whatsoever seemethH5869 goodH2896 unto thee; deliverH5337 us only, we pray thee, this dayH3117. {seemeth…: Heb. is good in thine eyes}
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 JerubbaalH3378, and BedanH917, and JephthahH3316, and SamuelH8050, and deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of your enemiesH341 on every sideH5439, and ye dwelledH3427 safeH983.
Therefore he broughtH5927 upon them the kingH4428 of the ChaldeesH3778, who slewH2026 their young menH970 with the swordH2719 in the houseH1004 of their sanctuaryH4720, and had no compassionH2550 upon young manH970 or maidenH1330, old manH2205, or him that stooped for ageH3486: he gaveH5414 them all into his handH3027.
And they put awayH5493 the strangeH5236 godsH430 from amongH7130 them, and servedH5647 the LORDH3068: and his soulH5315 was grievedH7114 for the miseryH5999 of IsraelH3478. {strange…: Heb. gods of strangers} {grieved: Heb. shortened}
(And the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 IsraelH3478 a saviourH3467, so that they went outH3318 from under the handH3027 of the SyriansH758: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in their tentsH168, as beforetimeH8032+H8543. {as beforetime: Heb. as yesterday, and third day}
And he gaveH5414 them into the handH3027 of the heathenH1471; and they that hatedH8130 them ruledH4910 over them.
ManyH7227 timesH6471 did he deliverH5337 them; but they provokedH4784 him with their counselH6098, and were brought lowH4355 for their iniquityH5771. {brought…: or, impoverished, or, weakened}
Nevertheless he regardedH7200 their afflictionH6862, when he heardH8085 their cryH7440:
And he rememberedH2142 for them his covenantH1285, and repentedH5162 according to the multitudeH7230 of his merciesH2617.
And the LORDH3068 saidH1696 not that he would blot outH4229 the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478 from under heavenH8064: but he savedH3467 them by the handH3027 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101.
Their enemiesH341 also oppressedH3905 them, and they were brought into subjectionH3665 under their handH3027.
And savioursH3467 shall come upH5927 on mountH2022 ZionH6726 to judgeH8199 the mountH2022 of EsauH6215; and the kingdomH4410 shall be the LORD'SH3068.
Neither have we obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his lawsH8451, which he setH5414 beforeH6440 us byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
Yea, all IsraelH3478 have transgressedH5674 thy lawH8451, even by departingH5493, that they might not obeyH8085 thy voiceH6963; therefore the curseH423 is pouredH5413 upon us, and the oathH7621 that is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430, because we have sinnedH2398 against him.
And he hath confirmedH6965 his wordsH1697, which he spakeH1696 against us, and against our judgesH8199 that judgedH8199 us, by bringingH935 upon us a greatH1419 evilH7451: for under the whole heavenH8064 hath not been doneH6213 as hath been doneH6213 upon JerusalemH3389.
As it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, all this evilH7451 is comeH935 upon us: yet made we not our prayerH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, that we might turnH7725 from our iniquitiesH5771, and understandH7919 thy truthH571. {made…: Heb. intreated we not the face of the, etc}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 watchedH8245 upon the evilH7451, and broughtH935 it upon us: for the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is righteousH6662 in all his worksH4639 which he doethH6213: for we obeyedH8085 not his voiceH6963.
