Yet now hearH8085, O JacobH3290 my servantH5650; and IsraelH3478, whom I have chosenH977:
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 that madeH6213 thee, and formedH3335 thee from the wombH990, which will helpH5826 thee; FearH3372 not, O JacobH3290, my servantH5650; and thou, JesurunH3484, whom I have chosenH977.
For I will pourH3332 waterH4325 upon him that is thirstyH6771, and floodsH5140 upon the dry groundH3004: I will pourH3332 my spiritH7307 upon thy seedH2233, and my blessingH1293 upon thine offspringH6631:
And they shall spring upH6779 as amongH996 the grassH2682, as willowsH6155 by the waterH4325 coursesH2988.
One shall sayH559, I am the LORD'SH3068; and another shall callH7121 himself by the nameH8034 of JacobH3290; and another shall subscribeH3789 with his handH3027 unto the LORDH3068, and surnameH3655 himself by the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 the KingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and his redeemerH1350 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; I am the firstH7223, and I am the lastH314; and besideH1107 me there is no GodH430.
And who, as I, shall callH7121, and shall declareH5046 it, and set it in orderH6186 for me, since I appointedH7760 the ancientH5769 peopleH5971? and the things that are comingH857, and shall comeH935, let them shewH5046 unto them.
FearH6342 ye not, neither be afraidH7297+H7297: have not I toldH8085 thee from that timeH227, and have declaredH5046 it? ye are even my witnessesH5707. Is thereH3426 a GodH433 besideH1107 me? yea, there is no GodH6697; I knowH3045 not any. {God; I: Heb. rock, etc}
They that makeH3335 a graven imageH6459 are all of them vanityH8414; and their delectable thingsH2530 shall not profitH3276; and they are their own witnessesH5707; they seeH7200 not, nor knowH3045; that they may be ashamedH954. {delectable: Heb. desirable}
Who hath formedH3335 a godH410, or moltenH5258 a graven imageH6459 that is profitableH3276 for nothingH1115?
Behold, all his fellowsH2270 shall be ashamedH954: and the workmenH2796, they are of menH120: let them all be gathered togetherH6908, let them stand upH5975; yet they shall fearH6342, and they shall be ashamedH954 togetherH3162.
The smithH1270+H2796 with the tongsH4621 both workethH6466 in the coalsH6352, and fashionethH3335 it with hammersH4717, and workethH6466 it with the strengthH3581 of his armsH2220: yea, he is hungryH7457, and his strengthH3581 failethH369: he drinkethH8354 no waterH4325, and is faintH3286. {with the tongs: or, with an axe}
The carpenterH2796+H6086 stretcheth outH5186 his ruleH6957; he marketh it outH8388 with a lineH8279; he fittethH6213 it with planesH4741, and he marketh it outH8388 with the compassH4230, and makethH6213 it after the figureH8403 of a manH376, according to the beautyH8597 of a manH120; that it may remainH3427 in the houseH1004.
He heweth him downH3772 cedarsH730, and takethH3947 the cypressH8645 and the oakH437, which he strengthenethH553 for himself among the treesH6086 of the forestH3293: he plantethH5193 an ashH766, and the rainH1653 doth nourishH1431 it. {strengtheneth: or, taketh courage}
Then shall it be for a manH120 to burnH1197: for he will takeH3947 thereof, and warmH2552 himself; yea, he kindlethH5400 it, and bakethH644 breadH3899; yea, he makethH6466 a godH410, and worshippethH7812 it; he makethH6213 it a graven imageH6459, and falleth downH5456 thereto.
He burnethH8313 partH2677 thereof inH1119 the fireH784; with partH2677 thereof he eatethH398 fleshH1320; he roastethH6740 roastH6748, and is satisfiedH7646: yea, he warmethH2552 himself, and saithH559, AhaH1889, I am warmH2552, I have seenH7200 the fireH217:
And the residueH7611 thereof he makethH6213 a godH410, even his graven imageH6459: he falleth downH5456 unto it, and worshippethH7812 it, and prayethH6419 unto it, and saithH559, DeliverH5337 me; for thou art my godH410.
They have not knownH3045 nor understoodH995: for he hath shutH2902 their eyesH5869, that they cannot seeH7200; and their heartsH3826, that they cannot understandH7919. {shut: Heb. daubed}
And none considerethH7725 in his heartH3820, neither is there knowledgeH1847 nor understandingH8394 to sayH559, I have burnedH8313 partH2677 of it inH1119 the fireH784; yea, also I have bakedH644 breadH3899 upon the coalsH1513 thereof; I have roastedH6740 fleshH1320, and eatenH398 it: and shall I makeH6213 the residueH3499 thereof an abominationH8441? shall I fall downH5456 to the stockH944 of a treeH6086? {considereth…: Heb. setteth to his heart} {the stock…: Heb. that which comes of a tree?}
He feedethH7462 on ashesH665: a deceivedH2048 heartH3820 hath turned him asideH5186, that he cannot deliverH5337 his soulH5315, nor sayH559, Is there not a lieH8267 in my right handH3225?
RememberH2142 these, O JacobH3290 and IsraelH3478; for thou art my servantH5650: I have formedH3335 thee; thou art my servantH5650: O IsraelH3478, thou shalt not be forgottenH5382 of me.
I have blotted outH4229, as a thick cloudH5645, thy transgressionsH6588, and, as a cloudH6051, thy sinsH2403: returnH7725 unto me; for I have redeemedH1350 thee.
SingH7442, O ye heavensH8064; for the LORDH3068 hath doneH6213 it: shoutH7321, ye lower partsH8482 of the earthH776: break forthH6476 into singingH7440, ye mountainsH2022, O forestH3293, and every treeH6086 therein: for the LORDH3068 hath redeemedH1350 JacobH3290, and glorifiedH6286 himself in IsraelH3478.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, thy redeemerH1350, and he that formedH3335 thee from the wombH990, I am the LORDH3068 that makethH6213 all things; that stretcheth forthH5186 the heavensH8064 alone; that spreadeth abroadH7554 the earthH776 by myself;
That frustratethH6565 the tokensH226 of the liarsH907, and maketh divinersH7080 madH1984; that turnethH7725 wiseH2450 men backwardH268, and maketh their knowledgeH1847 foolishH5528;
That confirmethH6965 the wordH1697 of his servantH5650, and performethH7999 the counselH6098 of his messengersH4397; that saithH559 to JerusalemH3389, Thou shalt be inhabitedH3427; and to the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, Ye shall be builtH1129, and I will raise upH6965 the decayed placesH2723 thereof: {decayed…: Heb. wastes}
That saithH559 to the deepH6683, Be dryH2717, and I will dry upH3001 thy riversH5104:
That saithH559 of CyrusH3566, He is my shepherdH7462, and shall performH7999 all my pleasureH2656: even sayingH559 to JerusalemH3389, Thou shalt be builtH1129; and to the templeH1964, Thy foundation shall be laidH3245.

He is the RockH6697, his workH6467 is perfectH8549: for all his waysH1870 are judgmentH4941: a GodH410 of truthH530 and without iniquityH5766, justH6662 and rightH3477 is he.
FearH3372 thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayedH8159; for I am thy GodH430: I will strengthenH553 thee; yea, I will helpH5826 thee; yea, I will upholdH8551 thee with the right handH3225 of my righteousnessH6664.
Behold, all they that were incensedH2734 against thee shall be ashamedH954 and confoundedH3637: they shall be as nothing; and theyH582 that striveH7379 with thee shall perishH6. {they that strive…: Heb. the men of thy strife}
Thou shalt seekH1245 them, and shalt not findH4672 them, even themH582 that contendedH4695 with thee: they that warH4421 against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of noughtH657. {them that…: Heb. the men of thy contention} {they…: Heb. the men of thy war}

I have even from the beginningH227 declaredH5046 it to thee; before it came to passH935 I shewedH8085 it thee: lest thou shouldest sayH559, Mine idolH6090 hath doneH6213 them, and my graven imageH6459, and my molten imageH5262, hath commandedH6680 them.
I have declaredH5046, and have savedH3467, and I have shewedH8085, when there was no strangeH2114 god among you: therefore ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I am GodH410.

For the LORDH3068 shall be thy confidenceH3689, and shall keepH8104 thy footH7272 from being takenH3921.
And, behold, the LORDH3068 stoodH5324 above it, and saidH559, I am the LORDH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1, and the GodH430 of IsaacH3327: the landH776 whereon thou liestH7901, to thee will I give itH5414, and to thy seedH2233;

For I was ashamedH954 to requireH7592 of the kingH4428 a band of soldiersH2428 and horsemenH6571 to helpH5826 us against the enemyH341 in the wayH1870: because we had spokenH559 unto the kingH4428, sayingH559, The handH3027 of our GodH430 is upon all them for goodH2896 that seekH1245 him; but his powerH5797 and his wrathH639 is against all them that forsakeH5800 him.
RememberH2142 the former thingsH7223 of oldH5769: for I am GodH410, and there is none else; I am GodH430, and there is noneH657 likeH3644 me,

Unto thee it was shewedH7200, that thou mightest knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430; there is none elseH5750 beside himH905.
Therefore fearH3372 thou not, O my servantH5650 JacobH3290, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; neither be dismayedH2865, O IsraelH3478: for, lo, I will saveH3467 thee from afarH7350, and thy seedH2233 from the landH776 of their captivityH7628; and JacobH3290 shall returnH7725, and shall be in restH8252, and be quietH7599, and none shall make him afraidH2729.
And his fatherH1 refusedH3985, and saidH559, I knowH3045 it, my sonH1121, I knowH3045 it: he also shall become a peopleH5971, and he also shall be greatH1431: but trulyH199 his youngerH6996 brotherH251 shall be greaterH1431 than he, and his seedH2233 shall become a multitudeH4393 of nationsH1471. {multitude: Heb. fulness}

KnowH3045 therefore this dayH3117, and considerH7725 it in thine heartH3824, that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430 in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, and upon the earthH776 beneath: there is none else.
For I am with thee, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, to saveH3467 thee: though I makeH6213 a full endH3617 of all nationsH1471 whither I have scatteredH6327 thee, yet will I not makeH6213 a full endH3617 of thee: but I will correctH3256 thee in measureH4941, and will not leave thee altogetherH5352 unpunishedH5352.
And JacobH3290 calledH7121 unto his sonsH1121, and saidH559, Gather yourselves togetherH622, that I may tellH5046 you that which shall befallH7122 you in the lastH319 daysH3117.
Gather yourselves togetherH6908, and hearH8085, ye sonsH1121 of JacobH3290; and hearkenH8085 unto IsraelH3478 your fatherH1.
ReubenH7205, thou art my firstbornH1060, my mightH3581, and the beginningH7225 of my strengthH202, the excellencyH3499 of dignityH7613, and the excellencyH3499 of powerH5794:
UnstableH6349 as waterH4325, thou shalt not excelH3498; because thou wentest upH5927 to thy father'sH1 bedH4904; then defiledst thouH2490 it: he went upH5927 to my couchH3326. {thou shalt…: Heb. do not thou excel} {he went…: or, my couch is gone}
SimeonH8095 and LeviH3878 are brethrenH251; instrumentsH3627 of crueltyH2555 are in their habitationsH4380. {instruments…: or, their swords are weapons of violence}
O my soulH5315, comeH935 not thou into their secretH5475; unto their assemblyH6951, mine honourH3519, be not thou unitedH3161: for in their angerH639 they slewH2026 a manH376, and in their selfwillH7522 they digged downH6131 a wallH7794. {digged…: or, houghed oxen}
CursedH779 be their angerH639, for it was fierceH5794; and their wrathH5678, for it was cruelH7185: I will divideH2505 them in JacobH3290, and scatterH6327 them in IsraelH3478.
JudahH3063, thou art he whom thy brethrenH251 shall praiseH3034: thy handH3027 shall be in the neckH6203 of thine enemiesH341; thy father'sH1 childrenH1121 shall bow downH7812 before thee.
JudahH3063 is a lion'sH738 whelpH1482: from the preyH2964, my sonH1121, thou art gone upH5927: he stooped downH3766, he couchedH7257 as a lionH738, and as an old lionH3833; who shall rouse him upH6965?
The sceptreH7626 shall not departH5493 from JudahH3063, nor a lawgiverH2710 from between his feetH7272, untilH3588 ShilohH7886 comeH935; and unto him shall the gatheringH3349 of the peopleH5971 be.
BindingH631 his foalH5895 unto the vineH1612, and his ass'sH860 coltH1121 unto the choice vineH8321; he washedH3526 his garmentsH3830 in wineH3196, and his clothesH5497 in the bloodH1818 of grapesH6025:
His eyesH5869 shall be redH2447 with wineH3196, and his teethH8127 whiteH3836 with milkH2461.
ZebulunH2074 shall dwellH7931 at the havenH2348 of the seaH3220; and he shall be for an havenH2348 of shipsH591; and his borderH3411 shall be unto ZidonH6721.
IssacharH3485 is a strongH1634 assH2543 couching downH7257 between two burdensH4942:
And he sawH7200 that restH4496 was goodH2896, and the landH776 that it was pleasantH5276; and bowedH5186 his shoulderH7926 to bearH5445, and became a servantH5647 unto tributeH4522.
DanH1835 shall judgeH1777 his peopleH5971, as oneH259 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478.
DanH1835 shall be a serpentH5175 by the wayH1870, an adderH8207 in the pathH734, that bitethH5391 the horseH5483 heelsH6119, so that his riderH7392 shall fallH5307 backwardH268. {an adder: Heb. an arrow-snake}
I have waited forH6960 thy salvationH3444, O LORDH3068.
GadH1410, a troopH1416 shall overcomeH1464 him: but he shall overcomeH1464 at the lastH6119.
Out of AsherH836 his breadH3899 shall be fatH8082, and he shall yieldH5414 royalH4428 daintiesH4574.
NaphtaliH5321 is a hindH355 let looseH7971: he givethH5414 goodlyH8233 wordsH561.
JosephH3130 is a fruitfulH6509 boughH1121, even a fruitfulH6509 boughH1121 by a wellH5869; whose branchesH1323 runH6805 over the wallH7791: {branches: Heb. daughters}
The archersH1167+H2671 have sorely grieved himH4843, and shotH7232 at him, and hated himH7852:
But his bowH7198 abodeH3427 in strengthH386, and the armsH2220 of his handsH3027 were made strongH6339 by the handsH3027 of the mightyH46 God of JacobH3290; (from thence is the shepherdH7462, the stoneH68 of IsraelH3478:)
Even by the GodH410 of thy fatherH1, who shall helpH5826 thee; and byH854 the AlmightyH7706, who shall blessH1288 thee with blessingsH1293 of heavenH8064 aboveH5920, blessingsH1293 of the deepH8415 that liethH7257 under, blessingsH1293 of the breastsH7699, and of the wombH7356:
The blessingsH1293 of thy fatherH1 have prevailedH1396 above the blessingsH1293 of my progenitorsH2029 unto the utmost boundH8379 of the everlastingH5769 hillsH1389: they shall be on the headH7218 of JosephH3130, and on the crown of the headH6936 of him that was separateH5139 from his brethrenH251.
BenjaminH1144 shall ravinH2963 as a wolfH2061: in the morningH1242 he shall devourH398 the preyH5706, and at nightH6153 he shall divideH2505 the spoilH7998.
All these are the twelveH6240+H8147 tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478: and this is it that their fatherH1 spakeH1696 unto them, and blessedH1288 them; everyH834 oneH376 according to his blessingH1293 he blessedH1288 them.
ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, answeredH6032 and saidH560 to the kingH4430, O NebuchadnezzarH5020, weH586 are notH3809 carefulH2818 to answerH8421 thee inH5922 thisH1836 matterH6600.
IfH2006 it be so, our GodH426 whom weH586 serveH6399 isH383 ableH3202 to deliverH7804 us fromH4481 the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861, andH4481 he will deliverH7804 us out ofH4481 thine handH3028, O kingH4430.
But ifH2006 notH3809, be itH1934 knownH3046 unto thee, O kingH4430, that we willH383 notH3809 serveH6399 thy godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which thou hast set upH6966.
ThenH116 was NebuchadnezzarH5020 fullH4391 of furyH2528, and the formH6755 of his visageH600 was changedH8133 againstH5922 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665: therefore he spakeH6032, and commandedH560 that they should heatH228 the furnaceH861 oneH2298 seven timesH7655 moreH5922 thanH1768 it was wontH2370 to be heatedH228. {full: Cald. filled}
And he commandedH560 the mostH2429 mightyH1401 menH1400 that were in his armyH2429 to bindH3729 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, and to castH7412 them into the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. {most…: Cald. mighty of strength}
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 were boundH3729 in their coatsH5622, their hosenH6361+H6361, and their hatsH3737, and their other garmentsH3831, and were castH7412 into the midstH1459 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. {coats: or, mantles} {hats: or, turbans}
ThereforeH3606+H6903 becauseH4481+H1836 the king'sH4430 commandmentH4406 was urgentH2685, and the furnaceH861 exceedingH3493 hotH228, the flameH7631 of the fireH5135 slewH6992 thoseH479 menH1400+H1994 that took upH5267 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665. {commandment: Cald. word} {flame: or, spark}
And theseH479 threeH8532 menH1400, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, fell downH5308 boundH3729 into the midstH1459 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861.
ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 was astoniedH8429, and rose upH6966 in hasteH927, and spakeH6032, and saidH560 unto his counsellorsH1907, Did notH3809 we castH7412 threeH8532 menH1400 boundH3729 into the midstH1459 of the fireH5135? They answeredH6032 and saidH560 unto the kingH4430, TrueH3330, O kingH4430. {counsellors: or, governors}
He answeredH6032 and saidH560, LoH1888, IH576 seeH2370 fourH703 menH1400 looseH8271, walkingH1981 in the midstH1459 of the fireH5135, and they haveH383 noH3809 hurtH2257; and the formH7299 of the fourthH7244 is likeH1821 the SonH1247 of GodH426. {they…: Cald. there is no hurt in them}
ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 came nearH7127 to the mouthH8651 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861, and spakeH6032, and saidH560, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, ye servantsH5649 of the most highH5943 GodH426, come forthH5312, and comeH858 hither. ThenH116 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, came forthH5312 ofH4481 the midstH1459 of the fireH5135. {mouth: Cald. door}
And the princesH324, governorsH5460, and captainsH6347, and the king'sH4430 counsellorsH1907, being gathered togetherH3673, sawH2370 theseH479 menH1400, upon whose bodiesH1655 the fireH5135 had noH3809 powerH7981, norH3809 was an hairH8177 of their headH7217 singedH2761, neitherH3809 were their coatsH5622 changedH8133, norH3809 the smellH7382 of fireH5135 had passedH5709 on them.
Then NebuchadnezzarH5020 spakeH6032, and saidH560, BlessedH1289 be the GodH426 of ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, who hath sentH7972 his angelH4398, and deliveredH7804 his servantsH5649 that trustedH7365 in himH5922, and have changedH8133 the king'sH4430 wordH4406, and yieldedH3052 their bodiesH1655, that they might notH3809 serveH6399 norH3809 worshipH5457 anyH3606 godH426, exceptH3861 their own GodH426.
SeeH7200 now that I, even I, am he, and there is no godH430 with me: I killH4191, and I make aliveH2421; I woundH4272, and I healH7495: neither is there any that can deliverH5337 out of my handH3027.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036, MakeG4160 the menG444 sit downG377. NowG1161 there wasG2258 muchG4183 grassG5528 inG1722 the placeG5117. SoG3767 the menG435 sat downG377, in numberG706 aboutG5616 five thousandG4000.
Ye shall makeH6213 you no idolsH457 nor graven imageH6459, neither rear you upH6965 a standing imageH4676, neither shall ye set upH5414 any imageH4906 of stoneH68 in your landH776, to bow downH7812 unto it: for I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430. {standing…: or, pillar} {image of…: or, figured stone: Heb. a stone of picture}
Ye shall keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676, and reverenceH3372 my sanctuaryH4720: I am the LORDH3068.
If ye walkH3212 in my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687, and doH6213 them;
Then I will giveH5414 you rainH1653 in due seasonH6256, and the landH776 shall yieldH5414 her increaseH2981, and the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 shall yieldH5414 their fruitH6529.
And your threshingH1786 shall reachH5381 unto the vintageH1210, and the vintageH1210 shall reachH5381 unto the sowing timeH2233: and ye shall eatH398 your breadH3899 to the fullH7648, and dwellH3427 in your landH776 safelyH983.
And I will giveH5414 peaceH7965 in the landH776, and ye shall lie downH7901, and none shall make you afraidH2729: and I will ridH7673 evilH7451 beastsH2416 out of the landH776, neither shall the swordH2719 goH5674 through your landH776. {rid: Heb. cause to cease}
And ye shall chaseH7291 your enemiesH341, and they shall fallH5307 beforeH6440 you by the swordH2719.
And fiveH2568 of you shall chaseH7291 an hundredH3967, and an hundredH3967 of you shall put ten thousandH7233 to flightH7291: and your enemiesH341 shall fallH5307 beforeH6440 you by the swordH2719.
For I will have respectH6437 unto you, and make you fruitfulH6509, and multiplyH7235 you, and establishH6965 my covenantH1285 with you.
And ye shall eatH398 old storeH3462, and bring forthH3318 the oldH3465 becauseH6440 of the newH2319.
And I will setH5414 my tabernacleH4908 amongH8432 you: and my soulH5315 shall not abhorH1602 you.
And I will walkH1980 amongH8432 you, and will beH1961 your GodH430, and ye shall beH1961 my peopleH5971.
I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430, which brought you forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, that ye should not be their bondmenH5650; and I have brokenH7665 the bandsH4133 of your yokeH5923, and made you goH3212 uprightH6968.
But if ye will not hearkenH8085 unto me, and will not doH6213 all these commandmentsH4687;
And if ye shall despiseH3988 my statutesH2708, or if your soulH5315 abhorH1602 my judgmentsH4941, so that ye will not doH6213 all my commandmentsH4687, but that ye breakH6565 my covenantH1285:
I also will doH6213 this unto you; I will even appointH6485 over you terrorH928, consumptionH7829, and the burning agueH6920, that shall consumeH3615 the eyesH5869, and cause sorrowH1727 of heartH5315: and ye shall sowH2232 your seedH2233 in vainH7385, for your enemiesH341 shall eatH398 it. {over: Heb. upon}
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against you, and ye shall be slainH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341: they that hateH8130 you shall reignH7287 over you; and ye shall fleeH5127 when none pursuethH7291 you.
And if ye will not yetH5704 for all this hearkenH8085 unto me, then I will punishH3256 you seven timesH7651 moreH3254 for your sinsH2403.
And I will breakH7665 the prideH1347 of your powerH5797; and I will makeH5414 your heavenH8064 as ironH1270, and your earthH776 as brassH5154:
And your strengthH3581 shall be spentH8552 in vainH7385: for your landH776 shall not yieldH5414 her increaseH2981, neither shall the treesH6086 of the landH776 yieldH5414 their fruitsH6529.
And if ye walkH3212 contraryH7147 unto me, and willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto me; I will bringH3254 seven timesH7651 moreH3254 plaguesH4347 upon you according to your sinsH2403. {contrary…: or, at all adventures with me}
I will also sendH7971 wildH7704 beastsH2416 among you, which shall rob you of your childrenH7921, and destroyH3772 your cattleH929, and make you few in numberH4591; and your high waysH1870 shall be desolateH8074.
And if ye will not be reformedH3256 by me by these things, but will walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
Then will I also walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto you, and will punishH5221 you yetH1571 seven timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.
And I will bringH935 a swordH2719 upon you, that shall avengeH5358 the quarrelH5359 of my covenantH1285: and when ye are gathered togetherH622 withinH413 your citiesH5892, I will sendH7971 the pestilenceH1698 amongH8432 you; and ye shall be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the enemyH341.
And when I have brokenH7665 the staffH4294 of your breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 shall bakeH644 your breadH3899 in oneH259 ovenH8574, and they shall deliverH7725 you your breadH3899 againH7725 by weightH4948: and ye shall eatH398, and not be satisfiedH7646.
And if ye will not for all thisH2063 hearkenH8085 unto me, but walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
Then I will walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto you also in furyH2534; and I, evenH637 I, will chastiseH3256 you seven timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.
And ye shall eatH398 the fleshH1320 of your sonsH1121, and the fleshH1320 of your daughtersH1323 shall ye eatH398.
And I will destroyH8045 your high placesH1116, and cut downH3772 your imagesH2553, and castH5414 your carcasesH6297 upon the carcasesH6297 of your idolsH1544, and my soulH5315 shall abhorH1602 you.
And I will makeH5414 your citiesH5892 wasteH2723, and bringH8074 your sanctuariesH4720 unto desolationH8074, and I will not smellH7306 the savourH7381 of your sweet odoursH5207.
And I will bringH8074 the landH776 into desolationH8074: and your enemiesH341 which dwellH3427 therein shall be astonishedH8074 at it.
And I will scatterH2219 you among the heathenH1471, and will draw outH7324 a swordH2719 afterH310 you: and your landH776 shall be desolateH8077, and your citiesH5892 wasteH2723.
Then shall the landH776 enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676, as longH3117 as it lieth desolateH8074, and ye be in your enemies'H341 landH776; even then shall the landH776 restH7673, and enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676.
As long asH3117 it lieth desolateH8074 it shall restH7673; because it did not restH7673 in your sabbathsH7676, when ye dweltH3427 upon it.
And upon them that are leftH7604 alive of you I will sendH935 a faintnessH4816 into their heartsH3824 in the landsH776 of their enemiesH341; and the soundH6963 of a shakenH5086 leafH5929 shall chaseH7291 them; and they shall fleeH5127, as fleeingH4499 from a swordH2719; and they shall fallH5307 when none pursuethH7291. {shaken: Heb. driven}
And they shall fallH3782 oneH376 upon anotherH251, as it were beforeH6440 a swordH2719, when none pursuethH7291: and ye shall have no power to standH8617 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341.
And ye shall perishH6 among the heathenH1471, and the landH776 of your enemiesH341 shall eat you upH398.
And they that are leftH7604 of you shall pine awayH4743 in their iniquityH5771 in your enemies'H341 landsH776; and also in the iniquitiesH5771 of their fathersH1 shall they pine awayH4743 with them.
If they shall confessH3034 their iniquityH5771, and the iniquityH5771 of their fathersH1, with their trespassH4604 which they trespassedH4603 against me, and that also they have walkedH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
And that I also have walkedH3212 contraryH7147 unto them, and have broughtH935 them into the landH776 of their enemiesH341; if thenH176 their uncircumcisedH6189 heartsH3824 be humbledH3665, and they then acceptH7521 of the punishment of their iniquityH5771:
Then will I rememberH2142 my covenantH1285 with JacobH3290, and also my covenantH1285 with IsaacH3327, and also my covenantH1285 with AbrahamH85 will I rememberH2142; and I will rememberH2142 the landH776.
The landH776 also shall be leftH5800 of them, and shall enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676, while she lieth desolateH8074 without them: and they shall acceptH7521 of the punishment of their iniquityH5771: becauseH3282, even becauseH3282 they despisedH3988 my judgmentsH4941, and because their soulH5315 abhorredH1602 my statutesH2708.
And yetH637 for all thatH2063, when they beH1571 in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, I will not cast them awayH3988, neither will I abhorH1602 them, to destroy them utterlyH3615, and to breakH6565 my covenantH1285 with them: for I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
But I will for their sakes rememberH2142 the covenantH1285 of their ancestorsH7223, whom I brought forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 in the sightH5869 of the heathenH1471, that I might be their GodH430: I am the LORDH3068.
These are the statutesH2706 and judgmentsH4941 and lawsH8451, which the LORDH3068 madeH5414 between him and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in mountH2022 SinaiH5514 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872.
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.
There is none holyH6918 as the LORDH3068: for there is none besideH1115 thee: neither is there any rockH6697 like our GodH430.
When thou shalt begetH3205 childrenH1121, and children'sH1121 childrenH1121, and ye shall have remained longH3462 in the landH776, and shall corruptH7843 yourselves, and makeH6213 a graven imageH6459, or the likenessH8544 of any thing, and shall doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to provoke him to angerH3707:
I callH5749 heavenH8064 and earthH776 to witnessH5749 against you this dayH3117, that ye shall soonH4118 utterlyH6 perishH6 from off the landH776 whereunto ye go overH5674 JordanH3383 to possessH3423 it; ye shall not prolongH748 your daysH3117 upon it, but shall utterlyH8045 be destroyedH8045.
And the LORDH3068 shall scatterH6327 you among the nationsH5971, and ye shall be leftH7604 fewH4962 in numberH4557 among the heathenH1471, whither the LORDH3068 shall leadH5090 you.
And there ye shall serveH5647 godsH430, the workH4639 of men'sH120 handsH3027, woodH6086 and stoneH68, which neither seeH7200, nor hearH8085, nor eatH398, nor smellH7306.
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.
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.
ThenH116 commandedH560 BelshazzarH1113, and they clothedH3848 DanielH1841 with scarletH711, and put a chainH2002 of goldH1722 aboutH5922 his neckH6676, and made a proclamationH3745 concerningH5922 him, that he should beH1934 the thirdH8531 rulerH7990 in the kingdomH4437.
In that nightH3916 was BelshazzarH1113 the kingH4430 of the ChaldeansH3779 slainH6992.
And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearkenH8085 diligentlyH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to observeH8104 and to doH6213 all his commandmentsH4687 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 will setH5414 thee on highH5945 above all nationsH1471 of the earthH776:
And all these blessingsH1293 shall comeH935 on thee, and overtakeH5381 thee, if thou shalt hearkenH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
BlessedH1288 shalt thou be in the cityH5892, and blessedH1288 shalt thou be in the fieldH7704.
BlessedH1288 shall be the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990, and the fruitH6529 of thy groundH127, and the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, the increaseH7698 of thy kineH504, and the flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629.
BlessedH1288 shall be thy basketH2935 and thy storeH4863. {store: or, dough, or, kneadingtroughs}
BlessedH1288 shalt thou be when thou comest inH935, and blessedH1288 shalt thou be when thou goest outH3318.
The LORDH3068 shall causeH5414 thine enemiesH341 that rise upH6965 against thee to be smittenH5062 before thy faceH6440: they shall come outH3318 against thee oneH259 wayH1870, and fleeH5127 beforeH6440 thee sevenH7651 waysH1870.
The LORDH3068 shall commandH6680 the blessingH1293 upon thee in thy storehousesH618, and in all that thou settestH4916 thine handH3027 unto; and he shall blessH1288 thee in the landH776 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee. {storehouses: or, barns}
The LORDH3068 shall establishH6965 thee an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto himself, as he hath swornH7650 unto thee, if thou shalt keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and walkH1980 in his waysH1870.
And all peopleH5971 of the earthH776 shall seeH7200 that thou art calledH7121 by the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068; and they shall be afraidH3372 of thee.
And the LORDH3068 shall make thee plenteousH3498 in goodsH2896, in the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990, and in the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, and in the fruitH6529 of thy groundH127, in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 swareH7650 unto thy fathersH1 to giveH5414 thee. {in goods: or, for good} {body: Heb. belly}
The LORDH3068 shall openH6605 unto thee his goodH2896 treasureH214, the heavenH8064 to giveH5414 the rainH4306 unto thy landH776 in his seasonH6256, and to blessH1288 all the workH4639 of thine handH3027: and thou shalt lendH3867 unto manyH7227 nationsH1471, and thou shalt not borrowH3867.
And the LORDH3068 shall makeH5414 thee the headH7218, and not the tailH2180; and thou shalt be above onlyH4605, and thou shalt not be beneathH4295; if that thou hearkenH8085 unto the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, to observeH8104 and to doH6213 them:
And thou shalt not go asideH5493 from any of the wordsH1697 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, to the right handH3225, or to the leftH8040, to goH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them.
But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearkenH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to observeH8104 to doH6213 all his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117; that all these cursesH7045 shall comeH935 upon thee, and overtakeH5381 thee:
CursedH779 shalt thou be in the cityH5892, and cursedH779 shalt thou be in the fieldH7704.
CursedH779 shall be thy basketH2935 and thy storeH4863.
CursedH779 shall be the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990, and the fruitH6529 of thy landH127, the increaseH7698 of thy kineH504, and the flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629.
CursedH779 shalt thou be when thou comest inH935, and cursedH779 shalt thou be when thou goest outH3318.
The LORDH3068 shall sendH7971 upon thee cursingH3994, vexationH4103, and rebukeH4045, in all that thou settestH4916 thine handH3027 unto for to doH6213, until thou be destroyedH8045, and until thou perishH6 quicklyH4118; becauseH6440 of the wickednessH7455 of thy doingsH4611, whereby thou hast forsakenH5800 me. {for…: Heb. which thou wouldest do}
The LORDH3068 shall make the pestilenceH1698 cleaveH1692 unto thee, until he have consumedH3615 thee from off the landH127, whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it.
The LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 thee with a consumptionH7829, and with a feverH6920, and with an inflammationH1816, and with an extreme burningH2746, and with the swordH2719, and with blastingH7711, and with mildewH3420; and they shall pursueH7291 thee until thou perishH6. {sword: or, drought}
And thy heavenH8064 that is over thy headH7218 shall be brassH5178, and the earthH776 that is under thee shall be ironH1270.
The LORDH3068 shall makeH5414 the rainH4306 of thy landH776 powderH80 and dustH6083: from heavenH8064 shall it come downH3381 upon thee, until thou be destroyedH8045.
The LORDH3068 shall causeH5414 thee to be smittenH5062 beforeH6440 thine enemiesH341: thou shalt go outH3318 oneH259 wayH1870 against them, and fleeH5127 sevenH7651 waysH1870 beforeH6440 them: and shalt be removedH2189 into all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776. {removed: Heb. for a removing}
And thy carcaseH5038 shall be meatH3978 unto all fowlsH5775 of the airH8064, and unto the beastsH929 of the earthH776, and no man shall fray them awayH2729.
The LORDH3068 will smiteH5221 thee with the botchH7822 of EgyptH4714, and with the emerodsH2914+H6076, and with the scabH1618, and with the itchH2775, whereof thou canstH3201 not be healedH7495.
The LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 thee with madnessH7697, and blindnessH5788, and astonishmentH8541 of heartH3824:
And thou shalt gropeH4959 at noondayH6672, as the blindH5787 gropethH4959 in darknessH653, and thou shalt not prosperH6743 in thy waysH1870: and thou shalt be only oppressedH6231 and spoiledH1497 evermoreH3117, and no man shall saveH3467 thee.
Thou shalt betrothH781 a wifeH802, and anotherH312 manH376 shall lieH7901+H7693 with her: thou shalt buildH1129 an houseH1004, and thou shalt not dwellH3427 therein: thou shalt plantH5193 a vineyardH3754, and shalt not gather the grapesH2490 thereof. {gather…: Heb. profane, or, use it as common meat}
Thine oxH7794 shall be slainH2873 before thine eyesH5869, and thou shalt not eatH398 thereof: thine assH2543 shall be violently taken awayH1497 from before thy faceH6440, and shall not be restoredH7725 to thee: thy sheepH6629 shall be givenH5414 unto thine enemiesH341, and thou shalt have none to rescueH3467 them. {shall not…: Heb. shall not return to thee}
Thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 shall be givenH5414 unto anotherH312 peopleH5971, and thine eyesH5869 shall lookH7200, and failH3616 with longing for them all the dayH3117 long: and there shall be no mightH410 in thine handH3027.
The fruitH6529 of thy landH127, and all thy laboursH3018, shall a nationH5971 which thou knowestH3045 not eat upH398; and thou shalt be only oppressedH6231 and crushedH7533 alwayH3117:
So that thou shalt be madH7696 for the sightH4758 of thine eyesH5869 which thou shalt seeH7200.
The LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 thee in the kneesH1290, and in the legsH7785, with a soreH7451 botchH7822 that cannotH3201 be healedH7495, from the soleH3709 of thy footH7272 unto the top of thy headH6936.
The LORDH3068 shall bringH3212 thee, and thy kingH4428 which thou shalt setH6965 over thee, unto a nationH1471 which neither thou nor thy fathersH1 have knownH3045; and there shalt thou serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, woodH6086 and stoneH68.
And thou shalt become an astonishmentH8047, a proverbH4912, and a bywordH8148, among all nationsH5971 whither the LORDH3068 shall leadH5090 thee.
Thou shalt carryH3318 muchH7227 seedH2233 outH3318 into the fieldH7704, and shalt gatherH622 but littleH4592 inH622; for the locustH697 shall consumeH2628 it.
Thou shalt plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and dressH5647 them, but shalt neither drinkH8354 of the wineH3196, nor gatherH103 the grapes; for the wormsH8438 shall eatH398 them.
Thou shalt have olive treesH2132 throughout all thy coastsH1366, but thou shalt not anointH5480 thyself with the oilH8081; for thine oliveH2132 shall castH5394 his fruit.
Thou shalt begetH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall goH3212 into captivityH7628. {thou shalt not…: Heb. they shall not be thine}
All thy treesH6086 and fruitH6529 of thy landH127 shall the locustH6767 consumeH3423. {consume: or, possess}
The strangerH1616 that is withinH7130 thee shall get upH5927 above thee veryH4605 highH4605; and thou shalt come downH3381 veryH4295 lowH4295.
He shall lendH3867 to thee, and thou shalt not lendH3867 to him: he shall be the headH7218, and thou shalt be the tailH2180.
Moreover all these cursesH7045 shall comeH935 upon thee, and shall pursueH7291 thee, and overtakeH5381 thee, till thou be destroyedH8045; because thou hearkenedstH8085 not unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 which he commandedH6680 thee:
And they shall be upon thee for a signH226 and for a wonderH4159, and upon thy seedH2233 forH5704 everH5769.
Because thou servedstH5647 not the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 with joyfulnessH8057, and with gladnessH2898 of heartH3824, for the abundanceH7230 of all things;
Therefore shalt thou serveH5647 thine enemiesH341 which the LORDH3068 shall sendH7971 against thee, in hungerH7458, and in thirstH6772, and in nakednessH5903, and in wantH2640 of all things: and he shall putH5414 a yokeH5923 of ironH1270 upon thy neckH6677, until he have destroyedH8045 thee.
The LORDH3068 shall bringH5375 a nationH1471 against thee from farH7350, from the endH7097 of the earthH776, as swift as the eagleH5404 fliethH1675; a nationH1471 whose tongueH3956 thou shalt not understandH8085; {understand: Heb. hear}
A nationH1471 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440, which shall not regardH5375 the personH6440 of the oldH2205, nor shew favourH2603 to the youngH5288: {of fierce…: Heb. strong of face}
And he shall eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, and the fruitH6529 of thy landH127, until thou be destroyedH8045: which also shall not leaveH7604 thee either cornH1715, wineH8492, or oilH3323, or the increaseH7698 of thy kineH504, or flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629, until he have destroyedH6 thee.
And he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179, until thy highH1364 and fencedH1219 wallsH2346 come downH3381, whereinH2004 thou trustedstH982, throughout all thy landH776: and he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179 throughout all thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee.
And thou shalt eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thine own bodyH990, the fleshH1320 of thy sonsH1121 and of thy daughtersH1323, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee, in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee: {body: Heb. belly}
So that the manH376 that is tenderH7390 among you, and veryH3966 delicateH6028, his eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward his brotherH251, and toward the wifeH802 of his bosomH2436, and toward the remnantH3499 of his childrenH1121 which he shall leaveH3498:
So that he will not giveH5414 to anyH259 of them of the fleshH1320 of his childrenH1121 whom he shall eatH398: because he hath nothing leftH7604 him in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee in all thy gatesH8179.
The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, which would not adventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323,
And toward her young oneH7988 that cometh outH3318 from between her feetH7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for wantH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179. {young one: Heb. afterbirth}
If thou wilt not observeH8104 to doH6213 all the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 that are writtenH3789 in this bookH5612, that thou mayest fearH3372 this gloriousH3513 and fearfulH3372 nameH8034, THE LORDH3068 THY GODH430;
Then the LORDH3068 will makeH6381 thy plaguesH4347 wonderfulH6381, and the plaguesH4347 of thy seedH2233, even greatH1419 plaguesH4347, and of long continuanceH539, and soreH7451 sicknessesH2483, and of long continuanceH539.
Moreover he will bringH7725 upon thee all the diseasesH4064 of EgyptH4714, which thou wast afraidH3025 ofH6440; and they shall cleaveH1692 unto thee.
Also every sicknessH2483, and every plagueH4347, which is not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of this lawH8451, them will the LORDH3068 bringH5927 upon thee, until thou be destroyedH8045. {bring: Heb. cause to ascend}
And ye shall be leftH7604 fewH4592 in numberH4962, whereasH834 ye were as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 for multitudeH7230; because thou wouldest not obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
And it shall come to pass, that as the LORDH3068 rejoicedH7797 over you to do you goodH3190, and to multiplyH7235 you; so the LORDH3068 will rejoiceH7797 over you to destroyH6 you, and to bring you to noughtH8045; and ye shall be pluckedH5255 from off the landH127 whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it.
And the LORDH3068 shall scatterH6327 thee among all peopleH5971, from the one endH7097 of the earthH776 even unto the otherH7097; and there thou shalt serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, which neither thou nor thy fathersH1 have knownH3045, even woodH6086 and stoneH68.
And among theseH1992 nationsH1471 shalt thou find no easeH7280, neither shall the soleH3709 of thy footH7272 have restH4494: but the LORDH3068 shall giveH5414 thee there a tremblingH7268 heartH3820, and failingH3631 of eyesH5869, and sorrowH1671 of mindH5315:
And thy lifeH2416 shall hangH8511 in doubt beforeH5048 thee; and thou shalt fearH6342 dayH3119 and nightH3915, and shalt have none assuranceH539 of thy lifeH2416:
In the morningH1242 thou shalt sayH559, Would God it wereH5414 evenH6153! and at evenH6153 thou shalt sayH559, Would God it wereH5414 morningH1242! for the fearH6343 of thine heartH3824 wherewith thou shalt fearH6342, and for the sightH4758 of thine eyesH5869 which thou shalt seeH7200.
And the LORDH3068 shall bringH7725 thee into EgyptH4714 againH7725 with shipsH591, by the wayH1870 whereof I spakeH559 unto thee, Thou shalt seeH7200 it no more againH3254: and there ye shall be soldH4376 unto your enemiesH341 for bondmenH5650 and bondwomenH8198, and no man shall buyH7069 you.
My GodH426 hath sentH7972 his angelH4398, and hath shutH5463 the lions'H744 mouthsH6433, that they have notH3809 hurtH2255 me: forasmuch asH3606+H6903 beforeH6925 him innocencyH2136 was foundH7912 in me; and alsoH638 beforeH6925 thee, O kingH4430, have I doneH5648 noH3809 hurtH2248.
InG1722 the beginningG746 wasG2258 the WordG3056, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 withG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 GodG2316.
ButG235 ye shall receiveG2983 powerG1411, after that the HolyG40 GhostG4151 is comeG1904 uponG1909 youG5209: andG2532 ye shall beG2071 witnessesG3144 unto meG3427 bothG5037 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 in SamariaG4540, andG2532 untoG2193 the uttermost partG2078 of the earthG1093. {power…: or, the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you}
AndG2532 sayingG3004, SirsG435, whyG5101 do yeG4160 these thingsG5130? WeG2249 alsoG2532 areG2070 menG444 of like passionsG3663 with youG5213, and preachG2097 unto youG5209 that ye should turnG1994 fromG575 theseG5023 vanitiesG3152 untoG1909 the livingG2198 GodG2316, whichG3739 madeG4160 heavenG3772, andG2532 earthG1093, andG2532 the seaG2281, andG2532 all thingsG3956 that are thereinG1722+G846:
ForG1063 as I passed byG1330, andG2532 beheldG333 yourG5216 devotionsG4574+G2532, I foundG2147 an altarG1041 with thisG1722+G3739 inscriptionG1924, TO THE UNKNOWNG57 GODG2316. WhomG3739 thereforeG3767 ye ignorantlyG50 worshipG2151, himG5126 declareG2605 IG1473 unto youG5213. {devotions: or, gods that ye worship}
GodG2316 that madeG4160 the worldG2889 andG2532 all thingsG3956 thereinG1722+G846, seeing that heG3778 isG5225 LordG2962 of heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093, dwellethG2730 notG3756 inG1722 templesG3485 made with handsG5499;
NeitherG3761 is worshippedG2323 withG5259 men'sG444 handsG5495, as though he neededG4326 any thingG5100, seeing heG846 givethG1325 to allG3956 lifeG2222, andG2532 breathG4157, andG2596 all thingsG3956;
AndG5037 hath madeG4160 ofG1537 oneG1520 bloodG129 allG3956 nationsG1484 of menG444 for to dwellG2730 onG1909 allG3956 the faceG4383 of the earthG1093, and hath determinedG3724 the timesG2540 before appointedG4384, andG2532 the boundsG3734 of theirG846 habitationG2733;
That they should seekG2212 the LordG2962, ifG1487 haplyG686 they might feelG5584 after himG846, andG2532 find himG2147, thoughG2544 he beG5225 notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257:
ForG1063 inG1722 himG846 we liveG2198, andG2532 moveG2795, andG2532 have our beingG2070; asG5613 certainG5100 alsoG2532 of yourG5209 ownG2596 poetsG4163 have saidG2046, ForG1063 we areG2070 alsoG2532 hisG5120 offspringG1085.
Forasmuch thenG3767 as we areG5225 the offspringG1085 of GodG2316, we oughtG3784 notG3756 to thinkG3543 that the GodheadG2304 isG1511 likeG3664 unto goldG5557, orG2228 silverG696, orG2228 stoneG3037, gravenG5480 by artG5078 andG2532 man'sG444 deviceG1761.
AndG3303+G3767 the timesG5550 of this ignoranceG52 GodG2316 winked atG5237; but nowG3569 commandethG3853 allG3956 menG444 every whereG3837 to repentG3340:
BecauseG1360 he hath appointedG2476 a dayG2250, inG1722 the whichG3739 he willG3195 judgeG2919 the worldG3625 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 byG1722 that manG435 whomG3739 he hath ordainedG3724; whereof he hath givenG3930 assuranceG4102 unto allG3956 men, in that he hath raisedG450 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498. {hath given…: or, offered faith}
WhereforeG5105 seeing we alsoG2532 areG2192 compassed aboutG4029+G2254 with so greatG5118 a cloudG3509 of witnessesG3144, letG659 usG2249 lay asideG659 everyG3956 weightG3591, andG2532 the sinG266 which doth so easily besetG2139 us, and let us runG5143 withG1223 patienceG5281 the raceG73 that is set beforeG4295 usG2254,
