The wickedH7563 fleeH5127 when no man pursuethH7291: but the righteousH6662 are boldH982 as a lionH3715.
For the transgressionH6588 of a landH776 manyH7227 are the princesH8269 thereof: but by a manH120 of understandingH995 and knowledgeH3045 the stateH3651 thereof shall be prolongedH748. {by…: or, by men of understanding and wisdom shall they likewise be prolonged}
A poorH7326 manH1397 that oppressethH6231 the poorH1800 is like a sweepingH5502 rainH4306 which leaveth no foodH3899. {which…: Heb. without food}
They that forsakeH5800 the lawH8451 praiseH1984 the wickedH7563: but such as keepH8104 the lawH8451 contendH1624 with them.
EvilH7451 menH582 understandH995 not judgmentH4941: but they that seekH1245 the LORDH3068 understandH995 all things.
BetterH2896 is the poorH7326 that walkethH1980 in his uprightnessH8537, than he that is perverseH6141 in his waysH1870, though he be richH6223.
Whoso keepethH5341 the lawH8451 is a wiseH995 sonH1121: but he that is a companionH7462 of riotousH2151 men shamethH3637 his fatherH1. {is a companion…: or, feedeth gluttons}
He that by usuryH5392 and unjust gainH8636 increasethH7235 his substanceH1952, he shall gatherH6908 it for him that will pityH2603 the poorH1800. {unjust…: Heb. by increase}
He that turneth awayH5493 his earH241 from hearingH8085 the lawH8451, even his prayerH8605 shall be abominationH8441.
Whoso causeth the righteousH3477 to go astrayH7686 in an evilH7451 wayH1870, he shall fallH5307 himself into his own pitH7816: but the uprightH8549 shall have goodH2896 things in possessionH5157.
The richH6223 manH376 is wiseH2450 in his own conceitH5869; but the poorH1800 that hath understandingH995 searcheth him outH2713. {own…: Heb. eyes}
When righteousH6662 men do rejoiceH5970, there is greatH7227 gloryH8597: but when the wickedH7563 riseH6965, a manH120 is hiddenH2664. {hidden: or, sought for}
He that coverethH3680 his sinsH6588 shall not prosperH6743: but whoso confessethH3034 and forsakethH5800 them shall have mercyH7355.
HappyH835 is the manH120 that fearethH6342 alwayH8548: but he that hardenethH7185 his heartH3820 shall fallH5307 into mischiefH7451.
As a roaringH5098 lionH738, and a rangingH8264 bearH1677; so is a wickedH7563 rulerH4910 over the poorH1800 peopleH5971.
The princeH5057 that wantethH2638 understandingH8394 is also a greatH7227 oppressorH4642: but he that hatethH8130 covetousnessH1215 shall prolongH748 his daysH3117.
A manH120 that doeth violenceH6231 to the bloodH1818 of any personH5315 shall fleeH5127 to the pitH953; let no man stayH8551 him.
Whoso walkethH1980 uprightlyH8549 shall be savedH3467: but he that is perverseH6140 in his waysH1870 shall fallH5307 at onceH259.
He that tillethH5647 his landH127 shall have plentyH7646 of breadH3899: but he that followethH7291 after vainH7386 persons shall have poverty enoughH7389.
A faithfulH530 manH376 shall aboundH7227 with blessingsH1293: but he that maketh hasteH213 to be richH6238 shall not be innocentH5352. {innocent: or, unpunished}
To have respectH5234 of personsH6440 is not goodH2896: for for a pieceH6595 of breadH3899 that manH1397 will transgressH6586.
HeH376 that hastethH926 to be richH1952 hath an evilH7451 eyeH5869, and considerethH3045 not that povertyH2639 shall comeH935 upon him. {hasteth…: or, hath and evil eye hasteth to be rich}
He that rebukethH3198 a manH120 afterwardsH310 shall findH4672 more favourH2580 than he that flatterethH2505 with the tongueH3956.
Whoso robbethH1497 his fatherH1 or his motherH517, and saithH559, It is no transgressionH6588; the same is the companionH2270 of a destroyerH376+H7843. {a destroyer: Heb. a man destroying}
He that is of a proudH7342 heartH5315 stirreth upH1624 strifeH4066: but he that putteth his trustH982 in the LORDH3068 shall be made fatH1878.
He that trustethH982 in his own heartH3820 is a foolH3684: but whoso walkethH1980 wiselyH2451, he shall be deliveredH4422.
He that givethH5414 unto the poorH7326 shall not lackH4270: but he that hidethH5956 his eyesH5869 shall have manyH7227 a curseH3994.
When the wickedH7563 riseH6965, menH120 hideH5641 themselves: but when they perishH6, the righteousH6662 increaseH7235.

And NadabH5070 the sonH1121 of JeroboamH3379 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in the secondH8147 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and reignedH4427 over IsraelH3478 twoH8147 yearsH8141. {began…: Heb. reigned}
Now therefore be not grievedH6087, nor angryH2734 with yourselvesH5869, that ye soldH4376 me hither: for GodH430 did sendH7971 me before youH6440 to preserve lifeH4241. {nor…: Heb. neither let there be anger in your eyes}
For these two yearsH8141 hath the famineH7458 been inH7130 the landH776: and yet there are fiveH2568 yearsH8141, in the which there shall neitherH369 be earingH2758 nor harvestH7105.
And GodH430 sentH7971 me before youH6440 to preserveH7760 you a posterityH7611 in the earthH776, and to save your livesH2421 by a greatH1419 deliveranceH6413. {to preserve…: Heb. to put for you a remnant}
So now it was not you that sentH7971 me hither, but GodH430: and he hath madeH7760 me a fatherH1 to PharaohH6547, and lordH113 of all his houseH1004, and a rulerH4910 throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Even in the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 did BaashaH1201 slayH4191 him, and reignedH4427 in his stead.
And for this cause HezekiahH3169 the kingH4428, and the prophetH5030 IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531, prayedH6419 and criedH2199 to heavenH8064.
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 an angelH4397, which cut offH3582 all the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, and the leadersH5057 and captainsH8269 in the campH4264 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. So he returnedH7725 with shameH1322 of faceH6440 to his own landH776. And when he was comeH935 into the houseH1004 of his godH430, they that came forthH3329 of his own bowelsH4578 slewH5307 him there with the swordH2719. {slew…: Heb. made him fall}
Thus the LORDH3068 savedH3467 HezekiahH3169 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 from the handH3027 of SennacheribH5576 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and from the handH3027 of all other, and guidedH5095 them on every sideH5439.
And manyH7227 broughtH935 giftsH4503 unto the LORDH3068 to JerusalemH3389, and presentsH4030 to HezekiahH3169 kingH4428 of JudahH3063: so that he was magnifiedH5375 in the sightH5869 of all nationsH1471 from thenceforthH310. {presents: Heb. precious things}
In those daysH3117 HezekiahH3169 was sickH2470 to the deathH4191, and prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068: and he spakeH559 unto him, and he gaveH5414 him a signH4159. {gave…: or, wrought a miracle for him}
But HezekiahH3169 rendered not againH7725 according to the benefitH1576 done unto him; for his heartH3820 was lifted upH1361: therefore there was wrathH7110 upon him, and upon JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389.
Notwithstanding HezekiahH3169 humbledH3665 himself for the prideH1363 of his heartH3820, both he and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, so that the wrathH7110 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 not upon them in the daysH3117 of HezekiahH3169. {pride: Heb. lifting up}
In the twentyH6242+H8141 and sixthH8337 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began ElahH425 the sonH1121 of BaashaH1201 to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in TirzahH8656, two yearsH8141.
And his servantH5650 ZimriH2174, captainH8269 of halfH4276 his chariotsH7393, conspiredH7194 against him, as he was in TirzahH8656, drinkingH8354 himself drunkH7910 in the houseH1004 of ArzaH777 steward of his houseH1004 in TirzahH8656. {steward…: Heb. which was over}
And ZimriH2174 went inH935 and smoteH5221 him, and killedH4191 him, in the twentyH6242 and seventhH7651 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and reignedH4427 in his stead.
And it came to pass, when he began to reignH4427, as soon as he satH3427 on his throneH3678, that he slewH5221 all the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201: he leftH7604 him not one that pissethH8366 against a wallH7023, neither of his kinsfolksH1350, nor of his friendsH7453. {neither…: or, both his kinsmen and his friends}
Thus did ZimriH2174 destroyH8045 all the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 against BaashaH1201 byH3027 JehuH3058 the prophetH5030, {by: Heb. by the hand of}
For all the sinsH2403 of BaashaH1201, and the sinsH2403 of ElahH425 his sonH1121, by which they sinnedH2398, and by which they made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398, in provoking the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ElahH425, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?
In the twentyH6242+H8141 and seventhH7651 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 did ZimriH2174 reignH4427 sevenH7651 daysH3117 in TirzahH8656. And the peopleH5971 were encampedH2583 against GibbethonH1405, which belonged to the PhilistinesH6430.
And the peopleH5971 that were encampedH2583 heardH8085 sayH559, ZimriH2174 hath conspiredH7194, and hath also slainH5221 the kingH4428: wherefore all IsraelH3478 made OmriH6018, the captainH8269 of the hostH6635, kingH4427 over IsraelH3478 that dayH3117 in the campH4264.
And OmriH6018 went upH5927 from GibbethonH1405, and all IsraelH3478 with him, and they besiegedH6696 TirzahH8656.
And it came to pass, when ZimriH2174 sawH7200 that the cityH5892 was takenH3920, that he wentH935 into the palaceH759 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and burntH8313 the king'sH4428 houseH1004 over him with fireH784, and diedH4191,
For his sinsH2403 which he sinnedH2398 in doingH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, in walkingH3212 in the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379, and in his sinH2403 which he didH6213, to make IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ZimriH2174, and his treasonH7195 that he wroughtH7194, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?
Then were the peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478 dividedH2505 into two partsH2677: halfH2677 of the peopleH5971 followedH1961+H310 TibniH8402 the sonH1121 of GinathH1527, to make him kingH4427; and halfH2677 followedH310 OmriH6018.
But the peopleH5971 that followedH310 OmriH6018 prevailedH2388 againstH854 the peopleH5971 that followedH310 TibniH8402 the sonH1121 of GinathH1527: so TibniH8402 diedH4191, and OmriH6018 reignedH4427.
In the thirtyH7970+H8141 and firstH259 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began OmriH6018 to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478, twelveH8147+H6240 yearsH8141: sixH8337 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in TirzahH8656.
And he boughtH7069 the hillH2022 SamariaH8111 of ShemerH8106 for two talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and builtH1129 on the hillH2022, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 which he builtH1129, after the nameH8034 of ShemerH8106, ownerH113 of the hillH2022, SamariaH8111. {Samaria: Heb. Shomeron}
But OmriH6018 wroughtH6213 evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, and did worseH7489 than all that were beforeH6440 him.
For he walkedH3212 in all the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, and in his sinH2403 wherewith he made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398, to provoke the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of OmriH6018 which he didH6213, and his mightH1369 that he shewedH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?
So OmriH6018 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 in SamariaH8111: and AhabH256 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
And in the thirtyH7970+H8141 and eighthH8083 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began AhabH256 the sonH1121 of OmriH6018 to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478: and AhabH256 the sonH1121 of OmriH6018 reignedH4427 over IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111 twentyH6242 and twoH8147 yearsH8141.
Thou shalt also decreeH1504 a thingH562, and it shall be establishedH6965 unto thee: and the lightH216 shall shineH5050 upon thy waysH1870.
When men are cast downH8213, then thou shalt sayH559, There is lifting upH1466; and he shall saveH3467 the humbleH7807 personH5869. {the humble…: Heb. him that hath low eyes}
He shall deliverH4422 the islandH336 of the innocentH5355: and it is deliveredH4422 by the purenessH1252 of thine handsH3709. {He shall…: or, The innocent shall deliver the island}
In the thirtyH7970+H8141 and eighthH8083 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 did ZachariahH2148 the sonH1121 of JeroboamH3379 reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111 sixH8337 monthsH2320.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, as his fathersH1 had doneH6213: he departedH5493 not from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, who made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JabeshH3003 conspiredH7194 against him, and smoteH5221 him beforeH6905 the peopleH5971, and slewH4191 him, and reignedH4427 in his stead.
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ZachariahH2148, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.
This was the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 which he spakeH1696 unto JehuH3058, sayingH559, Thy sonsH1121 shall sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478 unto the fourthH7243 generation. And so it came to pass.
ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JabeshH3003 began to reignH4427 in the nineH8672 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; and he reignedH4427 a fullH3117 monthH3391 in SamariaH8111. {Uzziah: Gr. Ozias} {a full…: Heb. a month of days}
For MenahemH4505 the sonH1121 of GadiH1424 went upH5927 from TirzahH8656, and cameH935 to SamariaH8111, and smoteH5221 ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JabeshH3003 in SamariaH8111, and slewH4191 him, and reignedH4427 in his stead.
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ShallumH7967, and his conspiracyH7195 which he madeH7194, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.
Then MenahemH4505 smoteH5221 TiphsahH8607, and all that were therein, and the coastsH1366 thereof from TirzahH8656: because they openedH6605 not to him, therefore he smoteH5221 it; and all the women therein that were with childH2030 he ripped upH1234.
In the nineH8672+H8141 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began MenahemH4505 the sonH1121 of GadiH1424 to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478, and reigned tenH6235 yearsH8141 in SamariaH8111.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: he departedH5493 not all his daysH3117 from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, who made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And PulH6322 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 cameH935 against the landH776: and MenahemH4505 gaveH5414 PulH6322 a thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701, that his handH3027 might be with him to confirmH2388 the kingdomH4467 in his handH3027.
And MenahemH4505 exactedH3318 the moneyH3701 of IsraelH3478, even of all the mighty menH1368 of wealthH2428, of eachH259 manH376 fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, to giveH5414 to the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. So the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 turned backH7725, and stayedH5975 not there in the landH776. {exacted: Heb. caused to come forth}
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of MenahemH4505, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?
And MenahemH4505 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1; and PekahiahH6494 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
In the fiftiethH2572+H8141 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 PekahiahH6494 the sonH1121 of MenahemH4505 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111, and reigned two yearsH8141.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: he departedH5493 not from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, who made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
But PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, a captainH7991 of his, conspiredH7194 against him, and smoteH5221 him in SamariaH8111, in the palaceH759 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, with ArgobH709 and AriehH745, and with him fiftyH2572 menH376 of the GileaditesH1121+H1569: and he killedH4191 him, and reignedH4427 in his room.
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of PekahiahH6494, and all that he didH6213, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.
In the twoH8147+H8141 and fiftiethH2572 yearH8141 of AzariahH5838 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111, and reigned twentyH6242 yearsH8141.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: he departedH5493 not from the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, who made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
In the daysH3117 of PekahH6492 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 TiglathpileserH8407 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and tookH3947 IjonH5859, and AbelbethmaachahH62, and JanoahH3239, and KedeshH6943, and HazorH2674, and GileadH1568, and GalileeH1551, all the landH776 of NaphtaliH5321, and carried them captiveH1540 to AssyriaH804.
And HosheaH1954 the sonH1121 of ElahH425 madeH7194 a conspiracyH7195 against PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, and smoteH5221 him, and slewH4191 him, and reignedH4427 in his stead, in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JothamH3147 the sonH1121 of UzziahH5818.
And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of PekahH6492, and all that he didH6213, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.
Now there was foundH4672 in it a poorH4542 wiseH2450 manH376, and he by his wisdomH2451 deliveredH4422 the cityH5892; yet no manH120 rememberedH2142 that same poorH4542 manH376.
Then the peopleH5971 of the landH776 tookH3947 JehoahazH3059 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977, and made him kingH4427 in his father'sH1 stead in JerusalemH3389.
JehoahazH3099 was twentyH6242 and threeH7969 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 threeH7969 monthsH2320 in JerusalemH3389.
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 put him downH5493 at JerusalemH3389, and condemnedH6064 the landH776 in an hundredH3967 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 and a talentH3603 of goldH2091. {put…: Heb. removed him}
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 made EliakimH471 his brotherH251 kingH4427 over JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, and turnedH5437 his nameH8034 to JehoiakimH3079. And NechoH5224 tookH3947 JehoahazH3099 his brotherH251, and carriedH935 him to EgyptH4714.
JehoiakimH3079 was twentyH6242 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389: and he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430.
Against him came upH5927 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and boundH631 him in fettersH5178, to carryH3212 him to BabylonH894. {fetters: or, chains}
NebuchadnezzarH5019 also carriedH935 of the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 to BabylonH894, and putH5414 them in his templeH1964 at BabylonH894.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JehoiakimH3079, and his abominationsH8441 which he didH6213, and that which was foundH4672 in him, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063: and JehoiachinH3078 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. {Jehoiachin: or, Jeconiah, I.Chro.3.16. or, Coniah ier.22.24.}
JehoiachinH3078 was eightH8083 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 threeH7969 monthsH2320 and tenH6235 daysH3117 in JerusalemH3389: and he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
And when the yearH8141 was expiredH8666, kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019 sentH7971, and broughtH935 him to BabylonH894, with the goodlyH2532 vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and made ZedekiahH6667 his brotherH251 kingH4427 over JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389. {when…: Heb. at the return of the year} {goodly…: Heb. vessels of desire} {Zedekiah…: or, Mattaniah, his father's brother}
ZedekiahH6667 was oneH259 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and humbledH3665 not himself beforeH6440 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 speaking from the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068.
And they that shall be of thee shall buildH1129 the oldH5769 waste placesH2723: thou shalt raise upH6965 the foundationsH4146 of manyH1755 generationsH1755; and thou shalt be calledH7121, The repairerH1443 of the breachH6556, The restorerH7725 of pathsH5410 to dwell inH3427.
For, behold, the LordH113, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, doth take awayH5493 from JerusalemH3389 and from JudahH3063 the stayH4937 and the staffH4938, the whole stayH4937 of breadH3899, and the wholeH3605 stayH4937 of waterH4325,
The mighty manH1368, and the manH376 of warH4421, the judgeH8199, and the prophetH5030, and the prudentH7080, and the ancientH2205,
The captainH8269 of fiftyH2572, and the honourableH5375 manH6440, and the counsellorH3289, and the cunningH2450 artificerH2791, and the eloquentH995 oratorH3908. {the honourable…: Heb. a man eminent in countenance} {eloquent…: or, skilful of speech}
And I will giveH5414 childrenH5288 to be their princesH8269, and babesH8586 shall ruleH4910 over them.
And the peopleH5971 shall be oppressedH5065, every oneH376 by anotherH376, and every oneH376 by his neighbourH7453: the childH5288 shall behave himself proudlyH7292 against the ancientH2205, and the baseH7034 against the honourableH3513.
When a manH376 shall take holdH8610 of his brotherH251 of the houseH1004 of his fatherH1, saying, Thou hast clothingH8071, be thou our rulerH7101, and let this ruinH4384 be under thy handH3027:
In that dayH3117 shall he swearH5375, sayingH559, I will not be an healerH2280; for in my houseH1004 is neither breadH3899 nor clothingH8071: makeH7760 me not a rulerH7101 of the peopleH5971. {swear: Heb. lift up the hand} {healer: Heb. binder up}
WhereforeH3861, O kingH4430, let my counselH4431 be acceptableH8232 unto theeH5922, and break offH6562 thy sinsH2408 by righteousnessH6665, and thine iniquitiesH5758 by shewing mercyH2604 to the poorH6033; ifH2006 it may beH1934 a lengtheningH754 of thy tranquillityH7963. {a lengthening…: or, an healing of thine error}
