Behold, the LORDH3068 maketh the earthH776 emptyH1238, and maketh it wasteH1110, and turnethH5753 it upside downH6440, and scattereth abroadH6327 the inhabitantsH3427 thereof. {turneth…: Heb. perverteth the face thereof}
And it shall be, as with the peopleH5971, so with the priestH3548; as with the servantH5650, so with his masterH113; as with the maidH8198, so with her mistressH1404; as with the buyerH7069, so with the sellerH4376; as with the lenderH3867, so with the borrowerH3867; as with the taker of usuryH5383, soH834 with the giver of usuryH5378 to him. {priest: or, prince}
The landH776 shall be utterlyH1238 emptiedH1238, and utterlyH962 spoiledH962: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 this wordH1697.
The earthH776 mournethH56 and fadeth awayH5034, the worldH8398 languishethH535 and fadeth awayH5034, the haughtyH4791 peopleH5971 of the earthH776 do languishH535. {the haughty…: Heb. the height of the people}
The earthH776 also is defiledH2610 under the inhabitantsH3427 thereof; because they have transgressedH5674 the lawsH8451, changedH2498 the ordinanceH2706, brokenH6565 the everlastingH5769 covenantH1285.
Therefore hath the curseH423 devouredH398 the earthH776, and they that dwellH3427 therein are desolateH816: therefore the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776 are burnedH2787, and fewH4213 menH582 leftH7604.
The new wineH8492 mournethH56, the vineH1612 languishethH535, all the merryheartedH8056+H3820 do sighH584.
The mirthH4885 of tabretsH8596 ceasethH7673, the noiseH7588 of them that rejoiceH5947 endethH2308, the joyH4885 of the harpH3658 ceasethH7673.
They shall not drinkH8354 wineH3196 with a songH7892; strong drinkH7941 shall be bitterH4843 to them that drinkH8354 it.
The cityH7151 of confusionH8414 is broken downH7665: every houseH1004 is shut upH5462, that no man may come inH935.
There is a cryingH6682 for wineH3196 in the streetsH2351; all joyH8057 is darkenedH6150, the mirthH4885 of the landH776 is goneH1540.
In the cityH5892 is leftH7604 desolationH8047, and the gateH8179 is smittenH3807 with destructionH7591.
When thus it shall be in the midstH7130 of the landH776 amongH8432 the peopleH5971, there shall be as the shakingH5363 of an olive treeH2132, and as the gleaning grapesH5955 when the vintageH1210 is doneH3615.
They shall lift upH5375 their voiceH6963, they shall singH7442 for the majestyH1347 of the LORDH3068, they shall cry aloudH6670 from the seaH3220.
Wherefore glorifyH3513 ye the LORDH3068 in the firesH217, even the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 in the islesH339 of the seaH3220. {fires: or, valleys}
From the uttermost partH3671 of the earthH776 have we heardH8085 songsH2158, even gloryH6643 to the righteousH6662. But I saidH559, My leannessH7334, my leannessH7334, woeH188 unto me! the treacherous dealersH898 have dealt treacherouslyH898; yea, the treacherous dealersH898 have dealt veryH899 treacherouslyH898. {uttermost…: Heb. wing} {My leanness: Heb. Leanness to me, or, My secret to me}
FearH6343, and the pitH6354, and the snareH6341, are upon thee, O inhabitantH3427 of the earthH776.
And it shall come to pass, that he who fleethH5127 from the noiseH6963 of the fearH6343 shall fallH5307 into the pitH6354; and he that cometh upH5927 out of the midstH8432 of the pitH6354 shall be takenH3920 in the snareH6341: for the windowsH699 from on highH4791 are openH6605, and the foundationsH4146 of the earthH776 do shakeH7493.
The earthH776 is utterlyH7489 broken downH7489, the earthH776 is cleanH6565 dissolvedH6565, the earthH776 is movedH4131 exceedinglyH4131.
The earthH776 shall reelH5128 to and froH5128 like a drunkardH7910, and shall be removedH5110 like a cottageH4412; and the transgressionH6588 thereof shall be heavyH3513 upon it; and it shall fallH5307, and not riseH6965 againH3254.
And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the LORDH3068 shall punishH6485 the hostH6635 of the high onesH4791 that are on highH4791, and the kingsH4428 of the earthH127 upon the earthH127. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
And they shall be gathered togetherH622, as prisonersH616 are gatheredH626 in the pitH953, and shall be shut upH5462 in the prisonH4525, and after manyH7230 daysH3117 shall they be visitedH6485. {as prisoners…: Heb. with the gathering of prisoners} {pit: or, dungeon} {visited: or, found wanting}
Then the moonH3842 shall be confoundedH2659, and the sunH2535 ashamedH954, when the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall reignH4427 in mountH2022 ZionH6726, and in JerusalemH3389, and before his ancientsH2205 gloriouslyH3519. {before…: or, there shall be glory before his ancients}
