HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 which the LORDH3068 speakethH1696 unto you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478:
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, LearnH3925 not the wayH1870 of the heathenH1471, and be not dismayedH2865 at the signsH226 of heavenH8064; for the heathenH1471 are dismayedH2865 at themH1992.
For the customsH2708 of the peopleH5971 are vainH1892: for one cuttethH3772 a treeH6086 out of the forestH3293, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the workmanH2796, with the axeH4621. {customs…: Heb. statutes, or, ordinances are vanity}
They deckH3302 it with silverH3701 and with goldH2091; they fastenH2388 it with nailsH4548 and with hammersH4717, that it moveH6328 not.
They are uprightH4749 as the palm treeH8560, but speakH1696 not: they must needsH5375 be borneH5375, because they cannot goH6805. Be not afraidH3372 of them; for they cannot do evilH7489, neither also is it in them to do goodH3190.
Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORDH3068; thou art greatH1419, and thy nameH8034 is greatH1419 in mightH1369.
Who would not fearH3372 thee, O KingH4428 of nationsH1471? for to thee doth it appertainH2969: forasmuch as among all the wiseH2450 men of the nationsH1471, and in all their kingdomsH4438, there is none like unto thee. {to…: or, it liketh thee}
But they are altogetherH259 brutishH1197 and foolishH3688: the stockH6086 is a doctrineH4148 of vanitiesH1892. {altogether: Heb. in one, or, at once}
SilverH3701 spread into platesH7554 is broughtH935 from TarshishH8659, and goldH2091 from UphazH210, the workH4639 of the workmanH2796, and of the handsH3027 of the founderH6884: blueH8504 and purpleH713 is their clothingH3830: they are all the workH4639 of cunningH2450 men.
But the LORDH3068 is the trueH571 GodH430, he is the livingH2416 GodH430, and an everlastingH5769 kingH4428: at his wrathH7110 the earthH776 shall trembleH7493, and the nationsH1471 shall not be able to abideH3557 his indignationH2195. {true…: Heb. God of truth} {everlasting…: Heb. king of eternity}
ThusH1836 shall ye sayH560 unto them, The godsH426 that have notH3809 madeH5648 the heavensH8065 and the earthH778, even they shall perishH7 from the earthH772, and from underH8460 theseH429 heavensH8065.
He hath madeH6213 the earthH776 by his powerH3581, he hath establishedH3559 the worldH8398 by his wisdomH2451, and hath stretched outH5186 the heavensH8064 by his discretionH8394.
When he utterethH5414 his voiceH6963, there is a multitudeH1995 of watersH4325 in the heavensH8064, and he causeth the vapoursH5387 to ascendH5927 from the endsH7097 of the earthH776; he makethH6213 lightningsH1300 with rainH4306, and bringeth forthH3318 the windH7307 out of his treasuresH214. {multitude: or, noise} {with: or, for}
Every manH120 is brutishH1197 in his knowledgeH1847: every founderH6884 is confoundedH3001 by the graven imageH6459: for his molten imageH5262 is falsehoodH8267, and there is no breathH7307 in them. {brutish in his knowledge: or, more brutish than to know}
They are vanityH1892, and the workH4639 of errorsH8595: in the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486 they shall perishH6.
The portionH2506 of JacobH3290 is not like them: for he is the formerH3335 of all things; and IsraelH3478 is the rodH7626 of his inheritanceH5159: The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034.
Gather upH622 thy waresH3666 out of the landH776, O inhabitantH3427 of the fortressH4692. {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
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.
WoeH188 is me for my hurtH7667! my woundH4347 is grievousH2470: but I saidH559, TrulyH389 this is a griefH2483, and I must bearH5375 it.
My tabernacleH168 is spoiledH7703, and all my cordsH4340 are brokenH5423: my childrenH1121 are gone forthH3318 of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forthH5186 my tentH168 any more, and to set upH6965 my curtainsH3407.
For the pastorsH7462 are become brutishH1197, and have not soughtH1875 the LORDH3068: therefore they shall not prosperH7919, and all their flocksH4830 shall be scatteredH6327.
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.
O LORDH3068, I knowH3045 that the wayH1870 of manH120 is not in himself: it is not in manH376 that walkethH1980 to directH3559 his stepsH6806.
O LORDH3068, correctH3256 me, but with judgmentH4941; not in thine angerH639, lest thou bring me to nothingH4591. {bring…: Heb. diminish me}
Pour outH8210 thy furyH2534 upon the heathenH1471 that knowH3045 thee not, and upon the familiesH4940 that callH7121 not on thy nameH8034: for they have eaten upH398 JacobH3290, and devouredH398 him, and consumedH3615 him, and have made his habitationH5116 desolateH8074.

After the doingsH4639 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, wherein ye dweltH3427, shall ye not doH6213: and after the doingsH4639 of the landH776 of CanaanH3667, whither I bringH935 you, shall ye not doH6213: neither shall ye walkH3212 in their ordinancesH2708.
StandH5975 now with thine enchantmentsH2267, and with the multitudeH7230 of thy sorceriesH3785, whereinH834 thou hast labouredH3021 from thy youthH5271; if so be thou shalt be ableH3201 to profitH3276, if so be thou mayest prevailH6206.
Thou art weariedH3811 in the multitudeH7230 of thy counselsH6098. Let now the astrologersH1895+H8064, the stargazersH2374+H3556, the monthlyH2320 prognosticatorsH3045, stand upH5975, and saveH3467 thee from these things that shall comeH935 upon thee. {astrologers: Heb. viewers of the heavens} {the monthly…: Heb. that give knowledge concerning the months}
Behold, they shall be as stubbleH7179; the fireH784 shall burnH8313 them; they shall not deliverH5337 themselvesH5315 from the powerH3027 of the flameH3852: there shall not be a coalH1513 to warmH2552 at, nor fireH217 to sitH3427 before it. {themselves: Heb. their souls}
And ye shall not walkH3212 in the mannersH2708 of the nationH1471, which I cast outH7971 beforeH6440 you: for they committedH6213 all these things, and therefore I abhorredH6973 them.
AndG2532 there shall beG2071 signsG4592 inG1722 the sunG2246, andG2532 in the moonG4582, andG2532 in the starsG798; andG2532 uponG1909 the earthG1093 distressG4928 of nationsG1484, withG1722 perplexityG640; the seaG2281 andG2532 the wavesG4535 roaringG2278;
Men'sG444 hearts failing themG674 forG575 fearG5401, andG2532 for looking afterG4329 those things which are coming onG1904 the earthG3625: forG1063 the powersG1411 of heavenG3772 shall be shakenG4531.
AndG2532 thenG5119 shall they seeG3700 the SonG5207 of manG444 comingG2064 inG1722 a cloudG3507 withG3326 powerG1411 andG2532 greatG4183 gloryG1391.
AndG1161 when these thingsG5130 beginG756 to come to passG1096, then look upG352, andG2532 lift upG1869 yourG5216 headsG2776; forG1360 yourG5216 redemptionG629 draweth nighG1448.
Take heedH8104 to thyself that thou be not snaredH5367 by followingH310 them, afterH310 that they be destroyedH8045 from beforeH6440 thee; and that thou enquireH1875 not after their godsH430, sayingH559, How did these nationsH1471 serveH5647 their godsH430? even so will I doH6213 likewiseH1571. {by…: Heb. after them}
