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.

AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! behold, thou hast madeH6213 the heavenH8064 and the earthH776 by thy greatH1419 powerH3581 and stretched outH5186 armH2220, and there is nothingH1697 too hardH6381 for thee: {too…: or, hid from thee}
Which alone spreadeth outH5186 the heavensH8064, and treadethH1869 upon the wavesH1116 of the seaH3220. {waves: Heb. heights}
He hath madeH6213 the earthH776 by his powerH3581, he hath establishedH3559 the worldH8398 by his wisdomH2451, and hath stretched outH5186 the heavenH8064 by his understandingH8394.
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}

They are vanityH1892, 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 Israel is the rodH7626 of his inheritanceH5159: the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034.
And he builtH1129 his sanctuaryH4720 like highH7311 palaces, like the earthH776 which he hath establishedH3245 for everH5769. {established: Heb. founded}
He stretcheth outH5186 the northH6828 over the empty placeH8414, and hangethH8518 the earthH776 upon nothingH1099.
The LORDH3068 reignethH4427, he is clothedH3847 with majestyH1348; the LORDH3068 is clothedH3847 with strengthH5797, wherewith he hath girdedH247 himself: the worldH8398 also is stablishedH3559, that it cannot be movedH4131.
Who coverestH5844 thyself with lightH216 as with a garmentH8008: who stretchest outH5186 the heavensH8064 like a curtainH3407:
And GodH430 saidH559, Let there be a firmamentH7549 in the midstH8432 of the watersH4325, and let it divideH914 the watersH4325 from the watersH4325. {firmament: Heb. expansion}
And GodH430 madeH6213 the firmamentH7549, and dividedH914 the watersH4325 whichH834 were underH8478 the firmamentH7549 from the watersH4325 whichH834 were aboveH5921 the firmamentH7549: and it was soH3651.
And GodH430 calledH7121 the firmamentH7549 HeavenH8064. And the eveningH6153 and the morningH1242 were the secondH8145 dayH3117.
And GodH430 saidH559, Let the watersH4325 under the heavenH8064 be gathered togetherH6960 untoH413 oneH259 placeH4725, and let the dryH3004 land appearH7200: and it was so.
Thy faithfulnessH530 is unto allH1755 generationsH1755: thou hast establishedH3559 the earthH776, and it abidethH5975. {unto…: Heb. to generation and generation} {abideth: Heb. standeth}
O LORDH3068, how manifoldH7231 are thy worksH4639! in wisdomH2451 hast thou madeH6213 them all: the earthH776 is fullH4390 of thy richesH7075.
WhereH375 wast thou when I laid the foundationsH3245 of the earthH776? declareH5046, if thou hastH3045 understandingH998. {hast…: Heb. knowest understanding}
Who hath laidH7760 the measuresH4461 thereof, if thou knowestH3045? or who hath stretchedH5186 the lineH6957 upon it?
Whereupon are the foundationsH134 thereof fastenedH2883? or who laidH3384 the cornerH6438 stoneH68 thereof; {foundations: Heb. sockets} {fastened: Heb. made to sink?}
When the morningH1242 starsH3556 sangH7442 togetherH3162, and all the sonsH1121 of GodH430 shoutedH7321 for joy?
The LORDH3068 by wisdomH2451 hath foundedH3245 the earthH776; by understandingH8394 hath he establishedH3559 the heavensH8064. {established: or, prepared}
It is he that sittethH3427 upon the circleH2329 of the earthH776, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof are as grasshoppersH2284; that stretcheth outH5186 the heavensH8064 as a curtainH1852, and spreadeth them outH4969 as a tentH168 to dwell inH3427: {It is…: or, Him that}
By the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 were the heavensH8064 madeH6213; and all the hostH6635 of them by the breathH7307 of his mouthH6310.
Who hath ascended upH5927 into heavenH8064, or descendedH3381? who hath gatheredH622 the windH7307 in his fistsH2651? who hath boundH6887 the watersH4325 in a garmentH8071? who hath establishedH6965 all the endsH657 of the earthH776? what is his nameH8034, and what is his son'sH1121 nameH8034, if thou canst tellH3045?
Thus saithH559 GodH410 the LORDH3068, he that createdH1254 the heavensH8064, and stretched them outH5186; he that spread forthH7554 the earthH776, and that which cometh outH6631 of it; he that givethH5414 breathH5397 unto the peopleH5971 upon it, and spiritH7307 to them that walkH1980 therein:
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 that createdH1254 the heavensH8064; GodH430 himself that formedH3335 the earthH776 and madeH6213 it; he hath establishedH3559 it, he createdH1254 it not in vainH8414, he formedH3335 it to be inhabitedH3427: I am the LORDH3068; and there is none else.
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;
To him that stretched outH7554 the earthH776 above the watersH4325: for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In an acceptableH7522 timeH6256 have I heardH6030 thee, and in a dayH3117 of salvationH3444 have I helpedH5826 thee: and I will preserveH5341 thee, and giveH5414 thee for a covenantH1285 of the peopleH5971, to establishH6965 the earthH776, to cause to inheritH5157 the desolateH8074 heritagesH5159; {establish: or, raise up}
I have madeH6213 the earthH776, and createdH1254 manH120 upon it: I, even my handsH3027, have stretched outH5186 the heavensH8064, and all their hostH6635 have I commandedH6680.
HappyH835 is he that hath the GodH410 of JacobH3290 for his helpH5828, whose hopeH7664 is in the LORDH3068 his GodH430:
Mine handH3027 also hath laid the foundationH3245 of the earthH776, and my right handH3225 hath spannedH2946 the heavensH8064: when I callH7121 unto them, they stand upH5975 togetherH3162. {my…: or, the palm of my right hand hath spread out}
Which madeH6213 heavenH8064, and earthH776, the seaH3220, and all that therein is: which keepethH8104 truthH571 for everH5769:
The burdenH4853 of the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 for IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, which stretchethH5186 forth the heavensH8064, and layeth the foundationH3245 of the earthH776, and formethH3335 the spiritH7307 of manH120 withinH7130 him.
PraiseH1984 him, ye heavensH8064 of heavensH8064, and ye watersH4325 that be above the heavensH8064.
Let them praiseH1984 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068: for he commandedH6680, and they were createdH1254.
All thingsG3956 were madeG1096 byG1223 himG846; andG2532 withoutG5565 himG846 wasG1096 notG3761 any thingG1520 madeG1096 thatG3739 was madeG1096.
ForG3754 byG1722 himG846 wereG2936 all thingsG3956 createdG2936, that are inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 that are inG1909 earthG1093, visibleG3707 andG2532 invisibleG517, whetherG1535 they be thronesG2362, orG1535 dominionsG2963, orG1535 principalitiesG746, orG1535 powersG1849: all thingsG3956 were createdG2936 byG1223 himG846, andG2532 forG1519 himG846:
