Nevertheless the dimnessH4155 shall not be such as was in her vexationH4164, whenH6256 at the firstH7223 he lightly afflictedH7043 the landH776 of ZebulunH2074 and the landH776 of NaphtaliH5321, and afterwardH314 did more grievously afflictH3513 her by the wayH1870 of the seaH3220, beyondH5676 JordanH3383, in GalileeH1551 of the nationsH1471. {of the nations: or, populous}
The peopleH5971 that walkedH1980 in darknessH2822 have seenH7200 a greatH1419 lightH216: they that dwellH3427 in the landH776 of the shadow of deathH6757, upon them hath the lightH216 shinedH5050.
Thou hast multipliedH7235 the nationH1471, and not increasedH1431 the joyH8057: they joyH8055 beforeH6440 thee according to the joyH8057 in harvestH7105, and as men rejoiceH1523 when they divideH2505 the spoilH7998. {not: or, to him}
For thou hast brokenH2865 the yokeH5923 of his burdenH5448, and the staffH4294 of his shoulderH7926, the rodH7626 of his oppressorH5065, as in the dayH3117 of MidianH4080. {For…: or, When thou brakest}
For every battleH5430 of the warriorH5431 is with confused noiseH7494, and garmentsH8071 rolledH1556 in bloodH1818; but this shall be with burningH8316 and fuelH3980 of fireH784. {For…: or, When the whole battle of the warrior was, etc} {but…: or, and it was, etc} {fuel: Heb. meat}
For unto us a childH3206 is bornH3205, unto us a sonH1121 is givenH5414: and the governmentH4951 shall be upon his shoulderH7926: and his nameH8034 shall be calledH7121 WonderfulH6382, CounsellorH3289, The mightyH1368 GodH410, The everlastingH5703 FatherH1, The PrinceH8269 of PeaceH7965.
Of the increaseH4766 of his governmentH4951 and peaceH7965 there shall be no endH7093, upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, and upon his kingdomH4467, to orderH3559 it, and to establishH5582 it with judgmentH4941 and with justiceH6666 from henceforth even forH5704 everH5769. The zealH7068 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 will performH6213 this.
The LordH136 sentH7971 a wordH1697 into JacobH3290, and it hath lightedH5307 upon IsraelH3478.
And all the peopleH5971 shall knowH3045, even EphraimH669 and the inhabitantH3427 of SamariaH8111, that sayH559 in the prideH1346 and stoutnessH1433 of heartH3824,
The bricksH3843 are fallen downH5307, but we will buildH1129 with hewn stonesH1496: the sycomoresH8256 are cut downH1438, but we will changeH2498 them into cedarsH730.
Therefore the LORDH3068 shall set upH7682 the adversariesH6862 of RezinH7526 against him, and joinH5526 his enemiesH341 togetherH5526; {join: Heb. mingle}
The SyriansH758 beforeH6924, and the PhilistinesH6430 behindH268; and they shall devourH398 IsraelH3478 with open mouthH6310. For all this his angerH639 is not turned awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretched out stillH5186. {open: Heb. whole}
For the peopleH5971 turnethH7725 not unto him that smitethH5221 them, neither do they seekH1875 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
Therefore the LORDH3068 will cut offH3772 from IsraelH3478 headH7218 and tailH2180, branchH3712 and rushH100, in oneH259 dayH3117.
The ancientH2205 and honourableH6440+H5375, heH1931 is the headH7218; and the prophetH5030 that teachethH3384 liesH8267, he is the tailH2180.
For the leadersH833 of this peopleH5971 cause them to errH8582; and they that are ledH833 of them are destroyedH1104. {the leaders: or, they that call them blessed} {led of: or, called blessed of} {destroyed: Heb. swallowed up}
Therefore the LordH136 shall have no joyH8055 in their young menH970, neither shall have mercyH7355 on their fatherlessH3490 and widowsH490: for every one is an hypocriteH2611 and an evildoerH7489, and every mouthH6310 speakethH1696 follyH5039. For all this his angerH639 is not turned awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretched out stillH5186. {folly: or, villany}
For wickednessH7564 burnethH1197 as the fireH784: it shall devourH398 the briersH8068 and thornsH7898, and shall kindleH3341 in the thicketsH5442 of the forestH3293, and they shall mount upH55 like the lifting upH1348 of smokeH6227.
Through the wrathH5678 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is the landH776 darkenedH6272, and the peopleH5971 shall be as the fuelH3980 of the fireH784: no manH376 shall spareH2550 his brotherH251. {fuel: Heb. meat}
And he shall snatchH1504 on the right handH3225, and be hungryH7457; and he shall eatH398 on the left handH8040, and they shall not be satisfiedH7646: they shall eatH398 every manH376 the fleshH1320 of his own armH2220: {snatch: Heb cut}
ManassehH4519, EphraimH669; and EphraimH669, ManassehH4519: and they togetherH3162 shall be against JudahH3063. For all this his angerH639 is not turned awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretched out stillH5186.

But the hypocritesH2611 in heartH3820 heap upH7760 wrathH639: they cryH7768 not when he bindethH631 them.
They shall askH7592 the wayH1870 to ZionH6726 with their facesH6440 thitherwardH2008, saying, ComeH935, and let us joinH3867 ourselves to the LORDH3068 in a perpetualH5769 covenantH1285 that shall not be forgottenH7911.
O LORDH3068, are not thine eyesH5869 upon the truthH530? thou hast strickenH5221 them, but they have not grievedH2342; thou hast consumedH3615 them, but they have refusedH3985 to receiveH3947 correctionH4148: they have made their facesH6440 harderH2388 than a rockH5553; they have refusedH3985 to returnH7725.

Surely afterH310 that I was turnedH7725, I repentedH5162; and afterH310 that I was instructedH3045, I smoteH5606 upon my thighH3409: I was ashamedH954, yea, even confoundedH3637, because I did bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youthH5271.
Is EphraimH669 my dearH3357 sonH1121? is he a pleasantH8191 childH3206? for sinceH1767 I spakeH1696 against him, I do earnestlyH2142 rememberH2142 him still: therefore my bowelsH4578 are troubledH1993 for him; I will surelyH7355 have mercyH7355 upon him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {are…: Heb. sound}
