O ye childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144, gather yourselves to fleeH5756 out of the midstH7130 of JerusalemH3389, and blowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in TekoaH8620, and set upH5375 a signH4864 of fire in BethhacceremH1021: for evilH7451 appearethH8259 out of the northH6828, and greatH1419 destructionH7667.
I have likenedH1820 the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726 to a comelyH5116 and delicateH6026 woman. {comely: or, dwelling at home}
The shepherdsH7462 with their flocksH5739 shall comeH935 unto her; they shall pitchH8628 their tentsH168 against her round aboutH5439; they shall feedH7462 every oneH376 in his placeH3027.
PrepareH6942 ye warH4421 against her; ariseH6965, and let us go upH5927 at noonH6672. WoeH188 unto us! for the dayH3117 goeth awayH6437, for the shadowsH6752 of the eveningH6153 are stretched outH5186.
AriseH6965, and let us goH5927 by nightH3915, and let us destroyH7843 her palacesH759.
For thus hath the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 saidH559, Hew ye downH3772 treesH6097, and castH8210 a mountH5550 against JerusalemH3389: this is the cityH5892 to be visitedH6485; she is wholly oppressionH6233 in the midstH7130 of her. {cast…: or, pour out the engine of shot}
As a fountainH953 casteth outH6979 her watersH4325, so she casteth outH6979 her wickednessH7451: violenceH2555 and spoilH7701 is heardH8085 in her; before meH6440 continuallyH8548 is griefH2483 and woundsH4347.
Be thou instructedH3256, O JerusalemH3389, lest my soulH5315 departH3363 from thee; lest I makeH7760 thee desolateH8077, a landH776 not inhabitedH3427. {depart: Heb. be loosed, or, disjointed}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, They shall throughlyH5953 gleanH5953 the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478 as a vineH1612: turn backH7725 thine handH3027 as a grapegathererH1219 into the basketsH5552.
To whom shall I speakH1696, and give warningH5749, that they may hearH8085? behold, their earH241 is uncircumcisedH6189, and they cannotH3201 hearkenH7181: behold, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 is unto them a reproachH2781; they have no delightH2654 in it.
Therefore I am fullH4392 of the furyH2534 of the LORDH3068; I am wearyH3811 with holding inH3557: I will pour it outH8210 upon the childrenH5768 abroadH2351, and upon the assemblyH5475 of young menH970 togetherH3162: for even the husbandH376 with the wifeH802 shall be takenH3920, the agedH2205 with him that is fullH4390 of daysH3117.
And their housesH1004 shall be turnedH5437 unto othersH312, with their fieldsH7704 and wivesH802 togetherH3162: for I will stretch outH5186 my handH3027 upon the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
For from the leastH6996 of them even unto the greatestH1419 of them every one is givenH1214 to covetousnessH1215; and from the prophetH5030 even unto the priestH3548 every one dealethH6213 falselyH8267.
They have healedH7495 also the hurtH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 slightlyH7043, sayingH559, PeaceH7965, peaceH7965; when there is no peaceH7965. {hurt: Heb. bruise, or, breach}
Were they ashamedH3001 when they had committedH6213 abominationH8441? nayH1571, they were not at allH954 ashamedH954, neitherH1571 couldH3045 they blushH3637: therefore they shall fallH5307 among them that fallH5307: at the timeH6256 that I visitH6485 them they shall be cast downH3782, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, StandH5975 ye in the waysH1870, and seeH7200, and askH7592 for the oldH5769 pathsH5410, where is the goodH2896 wayH1870, and walkH3212 therein, and ye shall findH4672 restH4771 for your soulsH5315. But they saidH559, We will not walkH3212 therein.
Also I setH6965 watchmenH6822 over you, saying, HearkenH7181 to the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782. But they saidH559, We will not hearkenH7181.
Therefore hearH8085, ye nationsH1471, and knowH3045, O congregationH5712, what is among them.
HearH8085, O earthH776: behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, even the fruitH6529 of their thoughtsH4284, because they have not hearkenedH7181 unto my wordsH1697, nor to my lawH8451, but rejectedH3988 it.
To what purpose comethH935 there to me incenseH3828 from ShebaH7614, and the sweetH2896 caneH7070 from a farH4801 countryH776? your burnt offeringsH5930 are not acceptableH7522, nor your sacrificesH2077 sweetH6149 unto me.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will layH5414 stumblingblocksH4383 before this peopleH5971, and the fathersH1 and the sonsH1121 togetherH3162 shall fallH3782 upon them; the neighbourH7934 and his friendH7453 shall perishH6.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, a peopleH5971 comethH935 from the northH6828 countryH776, and a greatH1419 nationH1471 shall be raisedH5782 from the sidesH3411 of the earthH776.
They shall lay holdH2388 on bowH7198 and spearH3591; they are cruelH394, and have no mercyH7355; their voiceH6963 roarethH1993 like the seaH3220; and they rideH7392 upon horsesH5483, set in arrayH6186 as menH376 for warH4421 against thee, O daughterH1323 of ZionH6726.
We have heardH8085 the fameH8089 thereof: our handsH3027 wax feebleH7503: anguishH6869 hath taken holdH2388 of us, and painH2427, as of a woman in travailH3205.
Go not forthH3318 into the fieldH7704, nor walkH3212 by the wayH1870; for the swordH2719 of the enemyH341 and fearH4032 is on every sideH5439.
O daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971, girdH2296 thee with sackclothH8242, and wallowH6428 thyself in ashesH665: makeH6213 thee mourningH60, as for an only sonH3173, most bitterH8563 lamentationH4553: for the spoilerH7703 shall suddenlyH6597 comeH935 upon us.
I have setH5414 thee for a towerH969 and a fortressH4013 among my peopleH5971, that thou mayest knowH3045 and tryH974 their wayH1870.
They are all grievousH5493 revoltersH5637, walkingH1980 with slandersH7400: they are brassH5178 and ironH1270; they are all corruptersH7843.
The bellowsH4647 are burnedH2787, the leadH5777 is consumedH8552 of the fireH800+H784; the founderH6884 meltethH6884 in vainH7723: for the wickedH7451 are not plucked awayH5423.
ReprobateH3988 silverH3701 shall men callH7121 them, because the LORDH3068 hath rejectedH3988 them. {Reprobate…: or, Refuse silver}

As for the JebusitesH2983 the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 couldH3201+H3201 not drive them outH3423: but the JebusitesH2983 dwellH3427 with the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 at JerusalemH3389 unto this dayH3117.
The whole cityH5892 shall fleeH1272 for the noiseH6963 of the horsemenH6571 and bowmenH7198+H7411; they shall goH935 into thicketsH5645, and climb upH5927 upon the rocksH3710: every cityH5892 shall be forsakenH5800, and not a manH376 dwellH3427 thereinH2004.
DeclareH5046 ye in JudahH3063, and publishH8085 in JerusalemH3389; and sayH559, BlowH8628 ye the trumpetH7782 in the landH776: cryH7121, gather togetherH4390, and sayH559, AssembleH622 yourselves, and let us goH935 into the defencedH4013 citiesH5892.
And JoabH3097 sentH7971 to TekoahH8620, and fetchedH3947 thence a wiseH2450 womanH802, and saidH559 unto her, I pray thee, feign thyself to be a mournerH56, and put onH3847 now mourningH60 apparelH899, and anointH5480 not thyself with oilH8081, but be as a womanH802 that had a longH7227 timeH3117 mournedH56 for the deadH4191:
But the dungH830 gateH8179 repairedH2388 MalchiahH4441 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394, the rulerH8269 of partH6418 of BethhacceremH1021; he builtH1129 it, and set upH5975 the doorsH1817 thereof, the locksH4514 thereof, and the barsH1280 thereof.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, a peopleH5971 comethH935 from the northH6828 countryH776, and a greatH1419 nationH1471 shall be raisedH5782 from the sidesH3411 of the earthH776.
Now the citiesH5892 of the tribeH4294 of the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 according to their familiesH4940 were JerichoH3405, and BethhoglahH1031, and the valleyH6010 of KezizH7104,
And BetharabahH1026, and ZemaraimH6787, and BethelH1008,
And AvimH5761, and ParahH6511, and OphrahH6084,
And ChepharhaammonaiH3726, and OphniH6078, and GabaH1387; twelveH8147+H6240 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691:
GibeonH1391, and RamahH7414, and BeerothH881,
And MizpehH4708, and ChephirahH3716, and MozahH4681,
And RekemH7552, and IrpeelH3416, and TaralahH8634,
And ZelahH6762, ElephH507, and JebusiH2983, which is JerusalemH3389, GibeathH1394, and KirjathH7157; fourteenH702+H6240 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691. This is the inheritanceH5159 of the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 according to their familiesH4940.
Gather upH622 thy waresH3666 out of the landH776, O inhabitantH3427 of the fortressH4692. {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
Set upH5375 the standardH5251 toward ZionH6726: retireH5756, stayH5975 not: for I will bringH935 evilH7451 from the northH6828, and a greatH1419 destructionH7667. {retire: or, strengthen} {destruction: Heb. breaking}
Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Out of the northH6828 an evilH7451 shall break forthH6605 upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776. {shall…: Heb. shall be opened}
And the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 did not drive outH3423 the JebusitesH2983 that inhabitedH3427 JerusalemH3389; but the JebusitesH2983 dwellH3427 with the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 in JerusalemH3389 unto this dayH3117.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will slingH7049 out the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 at this onceH6471, and will distressH6887 them, that they may findH4672 it so.
My bowelsH4578, my bowelsH4578! I am painedH2342+H3176 at my veryH7023 heartH3820; my heartH3820 maketh a noiseH1993 in me; I cannot hold my peaceH2790, because thou hast heardH8085, O my soulH5315, the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, the alarmH8643 of warH4421. {my very…: Heb. the walls of my heart}
The wordsH1697 of AmosH5986, who was among the herdmenH5349 of TekoaH8620, which he sawH2372 concerning IsraelH3478 in the daysH3117 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and in the daysH3117 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, two yearsH8141 beforeH6440 the earthquakeH7494.
For, lo, I will callH7121 all the familiesH4940 of the kingdomsH4467 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall comeH935, and they shall setH5414 every oneH376 his throneH3678 at the enteringH6607 of the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389, and against all the wallsH2346 thereof round aboutH5439, and against all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.
DestructionH7667 upon destructionH7667 is criedH7121; for the whole landH776 is spoiledH7703: suddenlyH6597 are my tentsH168 spoiledH7703, and my curtainsH3407 in a momentH7281.
Set upH5375 the standardH5251 toward ZionH6726: retireH5756, stayH5975 not: for I will bringH935 evilH7451 from the northH6828, and a greatH1419 destructionH7667. {retire: or, strengthen} {destruction: Heb. breaking}
Behold, the noiseH6963 of the bruitH8052 is comeH935, and a greatH1419 commotionH7494 out of the northH6828 countryH776, to makeH7760 the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 desolateH8077, and a denH4583 of dragonsH8577.
Behold, I will sendH7971 and takeH3947 all the familiesH4940 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and NebuchadrezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650, and will bringH935 them against this landH776, and against the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, and against all these nationsH1471 round aboutH5439, and will utterly destroyH2763 them, and makeH7760 them an astonishmentH8047, and an hissingH8322, and perpetualH5769 desolationsH2723.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will bringH935 upon TyrusH6865 NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, a kingH4428 of kingsH4428, from the northH6828, with horsesH5483, and with chariotsH7393, and with horsemenH6571, and companiesH6951, and muchH7227 peopleH5971.
He shall slayH2026 with the swordH2719 thy daughtersH1323 in the fieldH7704: and he shall makeH5414 a fortH1785 against thee, and castH8210 a mountH5550 against thee, and lift upH6965 the bucklerH6793 against thee. {cast…: or, pour out the engine of shot}
And he shall setH5414 enginesH4239 of warH6904 against thy wallsH2346, and with his axesH2719 he shall break downH5422 thy towersH4026.
By reason of the abundanceH8229 of his horsesH5483 their dustH80 shall coverH3680 thee: thy wallsH2346 shall shakeH7493 at the noiseH6963 of the horsemenH6571, and of the wheelsH1534, and of the chariotsH7393, when he shall enterH935 into thy gatesH8179, as men enterH3996 into a cityH5892 wherein is made a breachH1234. {as men…: Heb. according to the enterings of a city broken up}
With the hoofsH6541 of his horsesH5483 shall he tread downH7429 all thy streetsH2351: he shall slayH2026 thy peopleH5971 by the swordH2719, and thy strongH5797 garrisonsH4676 shall go downH3381 to the groundH776.
And they shall make a spoilH7997 of thy richesH2428, and make a preyH962 of thy merchandiseH7404: and they shall break downH2040 thy wallsH2346, and destroyH5422 thy pleasantH2532 housesH1004: and they shall layH7760 thy stonesH68 and thy timberH6086 and thy dustH6083 in the midstH8432 of the waterH4325. {thy pleasant…: Heb. houses of thy desire}
And I will cause the noiseH1995 of thy songsH7892 to ceaseH7673; and the soundH6963 of thy harpsH3658 shall be no more heardH8085.
And I will makeH5414 thee like the topH6706 of a rockH5553: thou shalt be a place to spreadH4894 netsH2764 uponH4894; thou shalt be builtH1129 no more: for I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 to TyrusH6865; Shall not the islesH339 shakeH7493 at the soundH6963 of thy fallH4658, when the woundedH2491 cryH602, when the slaughterH2027 is madeH2026 in the midstH8432 of thee?
Then all the princesH5387 of the seaH3220 shall come downH3381 from their thronesH3678, and lay awayH5493 their robesH4598, and put offH6584 their broideredH7553 garmentsH899: they shall clotheH3847 themselves with tremblingH2731; they shall sitH3427 upon the groundH776, and shall trembleH2729 at every momentH7281, and be astonishedH8074 at thee. {trembling: Heb. tremblings}
And they shall take upH5375 a lamentationH7015 for thee, and sayH559 to thee, How art thou destroyedH6, that wast inhabitedH3427 of seafaring menH3220, the renownedH1984 cityH5892, which wast strongH2389 in the seaH3220, she and her inhabitantsH3427, which causeH5414 their terrorH2851 to be on all that hauntH3427 it! {of…: Heb. of the seas}
Now shall the islesH339 trembleH2729 in the dayH3117 of thy fallH4658; yea, the islesH339 that are in the seaH3220 shall be troubledH926 at thy departureH3318.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; When I shall makeH5414 thee a desolateH2717 cityH5892, like the citiesH5892 that are not inhabitedH3427; when I shall bring upH5927 the deepH8415 upon thee, and greatH7227 watersH4325 shall coverH3680 thee;
When I shall bring thee downH3381 with them that descendH3381 into the pitH953, with the peopleH5971 of old timeH5769, and shall setH3427 thee in the low partsH8482 of the earthH776, in places desolateH2723 of oldH5769, with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953, that thou be not inhabitedH3427; and I shall setH5414 gloryH6643 in the landH776 of the livingH2416;
I will makeH5414 thee a terrorH1091, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought forH1245, yet shalt thou neverH5769 be foundH4672 again, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {a terror: Heb. terrors}
