And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, standH5975 upon thy feetH7272, and I will speakH1696 unto thee.
And the spiritH7307 enteredH935 into me when he spakeH1696 unto me, and setH5975 me upon my feetH7272, that I heardH8085 him that spakeH1696 unto me.
And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, I sendH7971 thee to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, to a rebelliousH4775 nationH1471 that hath rebelledH4775 against me: they and their fathersH1 have transgressedH6586 against me, even unto this veryH6106 dayH3117. {nation: Heb. nations}
For they are impudentH7186+H6440 childrenH1121 and stiffheartedH2389+H3820. I do sendH7971 thee unto them; and thou shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069. {impudent: Heb. hard of face}
And they, whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbearH2308, (for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004,) yet shall knowH3045 that there hath been a prophetH5030 amongH8432 them.
And thou, sonH1121 of manH120, be not afraidH3372 of them, neither be afraidH3372 of their wordsH1697, though briersH5621 and thornsH5544 be with thee, and thou dost dwellH3427 among scorpionsH6137: be not afraidH3372 of their wordsH1697, nor be dismayedH2865 at their looksH6440, though they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. {briers…: or, rebels}
And thou shalt speakH1696 my wordsH1697 unto them, whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbearH2308: for they are most rebelliousH4805. {most…: Heb. rebellion}
But thou, sonH1121 of manH120, hearH8085 what I sayH1696 unto thee; Be notH1961 thou rebelliousH4805 like that rebelliousH4805 houseH1004: openH6475 thy mouthH6310, and eatH398 that I giveH5414 thee.
And when I lookedH7200, behold, an handH3027 was sentH7971 unto me; and, lo, a rollH4039 of a bookH5612 was therein;
And he spreadH6566 it beforeH6440 me; and it was writtenH3789 withinH6440 and withoutH268: and there was writtenH3789 therein lamentationsH7015, and mourningH1899, and woeH1958.

And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, goH3212, getH935 thee unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and speakH1696 with my wordsH1697 unto them.
For thou art not sentH7971 to a peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, but to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; {of a…: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of tongue}
Not to manyH7227 peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, whose wordsH1697 thou canst not understandH8085. Surely, had I sentH7971 thee to them, they would have hearkenedH8085 unto thee. {of a…: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of language} {Surely…: or, If I had sent thee, etc. would they not have hearkened unto thee?}
But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto thee; for they willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto me: for all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are impudentH2389+H4696 and hardheartedH7186+H3820. {impudent…: Heb. stiff of forehead, and hard of heart}
Behold, I have madeH5414 thy faceH6440 strongH2389 againstH5980 their facesH6440, and thy foreheadH4696 strongH2389 againstH5980 their foreheadsH4696.
Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, cause JerusalemH3389 to knowH3045 her abominationsH8441,
And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 unto JerusalemH3389; Thy birthH4351 and thy nativityH4138 is of the landH776 of CanaanH3669; thy fatherH1 was an AmoriteH567, and thy motherH517 an HittiteH2850. {birth: Heb. cutting out, or, habitation}
And as for thy nativityH4138, in the dayH3117 thou wast bornH3205 thy navelH8270 was not cutH3772, neither wast thou washedH7364 in waterH4325 to suppleH4935 thee; thou wast not saltedH4414 at allH4414, nor swaddledH2853 at allH2853. {to supple…: or, when I looked upon thee}
None eyeH5869 pitiedH2347 thee, to doH6213 anyH259 of these unto thee, to have compassionH2550 upon thee; but thou wast cast outH7993 in the openH6440 fieldH7704, to the lothingH1604 of thy personH5315, in the dayH3117 that thou wast bornH3205.
And when I passedH5674 by thee, and sawH7200 thee pollutedH947 in thine own bloodH1818, I saidH559 unto thee when thou wast in thy bloodH1818, LiveH2421; yea, I saidH559 unto thee when thou wast in thy bloodH1818, LiveH2421. {polluted: or, trodden under foot}
I have causedH5414 thee to multiplyH7233 as the budH6780 of the fieldH7704, and thou hast increasedH7235 and waxen greatH1431, and thou art comeH935 to excellentH5716 ornamentsH5716: thy breastsH7699 are fashionedH3559, and thine hairH8181 is grownH6779, whereas thou wast nakedH5903 and bareH6181. {caused…: Heb. made thee a million} {excellent…: Heb. ornament of ornaments}
Now when I passedH5674 by thee, and lookedH7200 upon thee, behold, thy timeH6256 was the timeH6256 of loveH1730; and I spreadH6566 my skirtH3671 over thee, and coveredH3680 thy nakednessH6172: yea, I swareH7650 unto thee, and enteredH935 into a covenantH1285 with thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, and thou becamest mine.
Then washedH7364 I thee with waterH4325; yea, I throughly washed awayH7857 thy bloodH1818 from thee, and I anointedH5480 thee with oilH8081. {blood: Heb. bloods}
I clothedH3847 thee also with broidered workH7553, and shodH5274 thee with badgers' skinH8476, and I girdedH2280 thee about with fine linenH8336, and I coveredH3680 thee with silkH4897.
I deckedH5710 thee also with ornamentsH5716, and I putH5414 braceletsH6781 upon thy handsH3027, and a chainH7242 on thy neckH1627.
And I putH5414 a jewelH5141 on thy foreheadH639, and earringsH5694 in thine earsH241, and a beautifulH8597 crownH5850 upon thine headH7218. {forehead: Heb. nose}
Thus wast thou deckedH5710 with goldH2091 and silverH3701; and thy raimentH4403 was of fine linenH8336+H8336, and silkH4897, and broidered workH7553; thou didst eatH398 fine flourH5560, and honeyH1706, and oilH8081: and thou wast exceedingH3966 beautifulH3302, and thou didst prosperH6743 into a kingdomH4410.
And thy renownH8034 went forthH3318 among the heathenH1471 for thy beautyH3308: for it was perfectH3632 through my comelinessH1926, which I had putH7760 upon thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
But thou didst trustH982 in thine own beautyH3308, and playedst the harlotH2181 because of thy renownH8034, and pouredst outH8210 thy fornicationsH8457 on every one that passed byH5674; his it was.
And of thy garmentsH899 thou didst takeH3947, and deckedstH6213 thy high placesH1116 with divers coloursH2921, and playedst the harlotH2181 thereupon: the like things shall not comeH935, neither shall it be so.
Thou hast also takenH3947 thy fairH8597 jewelsH3627 of my goldH2091 and of my silverH3701, which I had givenH5414 thee, and madestH6213 to thyself imagesH6754 of menH2145, and didst commit whoredomH2181 with them, {of men: Heb. of a male}
And tookestH3947 thy broideredH7553 garmentsH899, and coveredstH3680 them: and thou hast setH5414 mine oilH8081 and mine incenseH7004 beforeH6440 them.
My meatH3899 also which I gaveH5414 thee, fine flourH5560, and oilH8081, and honeyH1706, wherewith I fedH398 thee, thou hast even setH5414 it beforeH6440 them for a sweetH5207 savourH7381: and thus it was, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {a sweet…: Heb. a savour of rest}
Moreover thou hast takenH3947 thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323, whom thou hast borneH3205 unto me, and these hast thou sacrificedH2076 unto them to be devouredH398. Is this of thy whoredomsH8457 a small matterH4592, {to be…: Heb. to devour}
That thou hast slainH7819 my childrenH1121, and deliveredH5414 them to cause them to pass throughH5674 the fire for them?
And in all thine abominationsH8441 and thy whoredomsH8457 thou hast not rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, when thou wast nakedH5903 and bareH6181, and wast pollutedH947 in thy bloodH1818.
And it came to pass afterH310 all thy wickednessH7451, (woeH188, woeH188 unto thee! saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069;)
That thou hast also builtH1129 unto thee an eminent placeH1354, and hast madeH6213 thee an high placeH7413 in every streetH7339. {eminent…: or, brothel house}
Thou hast builtH1129 thy high placeH7413 at every headH7218 of the wayH1870, and hast made thy beautyH3308 to be abhorredH8581, and hast openedH6589 thy feetH7272 to every one that passed byH5674, and multipliedH7235 thy whoredomsH8457.
Thou hast also committed fornicationH2181 with the EgyptiansH1121+H4714 thy neighboursH7934, greatH1432 of fleshH1320; and hast increasedH7235 thy whoredomsH8457, to provoke me to angerH3707.
Behold, therefore I have stretched outH5186 my handH3027 over thee, and have diminishedH1639 thine ordinaryH2706 food, and deliveredH5414 thee unto the willH5315 of them that hateH8130 thee, the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430, which are ashamedH3637 of thy lewdH2154 wayH1870. {daughters: or, cities}
Thou hast played the whoreH2181 also with the AssyriansH1121+H804, becauseH1115 thou wast unsatiableH7646; yea, thou hast played the harlotH2181 with them, and yet couldest not be satisfiedH7654.
Thou hast moreover multipliedH7235 thy fornicationH8457 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667 unto ChaldeaH3778; and yet thou wast not satisfiedH7646 herewithH2063.
How weakH535 is thine heartH3826, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, seeing thou doestH6213 all these things, the workH4639 of an imperiousH7986 whorishH2181 womanH802;
In that thou buildestH1129 thine eminent placeH1354 in the headH7218 of every wayH1870, and makestH6213 thine high placeH7413 in every streetH7339; and hast not been as an harlotH2181, in that thou scornestH7046 hireH868; {In that thou buildest…: or, In thy daughters is thine, etc}
But as a wifeH802 that committeth adulteryH5003, which takethH3947 strangersH2114 instead of her husbandH376!
They giveH5414 giftsH5078 to all whoresH2181: but thou givestH5414 thy giftsH5083 to all thy loversH157, and hirestH7809 them, that they may comeH935 unto thee on every sideH5439 for thy whoredomH8457. {hirest: Heb. bribest}
And the contraryH2016 is in thee from other womenH802 in thy whoredomsH8457, whereas none followethH310 thee to commit whoredomsH2181: and in that thou givestH5414 a rewardH868, and no rewardH868 is givenH5414 unto thee, therefore thou artH1961 contraryH2016.
Wherefore, O harlotH2181, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068:
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thy filthinessH5178 was poured outH8210, and thy nakednessH6172 discoveredH1540 through thy whoredomsH8457 with thy loversH157, and with all the idolsH1544 of thy abominationsH8441, and by the bloodH1818 of thy childrenH1121, which thou didst giveH5414 unto them;
Behold, therefore I will gatherH6908 all thy loversH157, with whom thou hast taken pleasureH6149, and all them that thou hast lovedH157, with all them that thou hast hatedH8130; I will even gatherH6908 them round aboutH5439 against thee, and will discoverH1540 thy nakednessH6172 unto them, that they may seeH7200 all thy nakednessH6172.
And I will judgeH8199 thee, as women that break wedlockH5003 and shedH8210 bloodH1818 are judgedH4941; and I will giveH5414 thee bloodH1818 in furyH2534 and jealousyH7068. {as: Heb. with judgments of}
And I will also giveH5414 thee into their handH3027, and they shall throw downH2040 thine eminent placeH1354, and shall break downH5422 thy high placesH7413: they shall stripH6584 thee also of thy clothesH899, and shall takeH3947 thy fairH8597 jewelsH3627, and leaveH3240 thee nakedH5903 and bareH6181. {thy fair…: Heb. instruments of thine ornament}
They shall also bring upH5927 a companyH6951 against thee, and they shall stoneH7275 thee with stonesH68, and thrust thee throughH1333 with their swordsH2719.
And they shall burnH8313 thine housesH1004 with fireH784, and executeH6213 judgmentsH8201 upon thee in the sightH5869 of manyH7227 womenH802: and I will cause thee to ceaseH7673 from playing the harlotH2181, and thou also shalt giveH5414 no hireH868 any more.
So will I make my furyH2534 toward thee to restH5117, and my jealousyH7068 shall departH5493 from thee, and I will be quietH8252, and will be no more angryH3707.
Because thou hast not rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, but hast frettedH7264 me in all these things; beholdH1887, therefore I also will recompenseH5414 thy wayH1870 upon thine headH7218, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069: and thou shalt not commitH6213 this lewdnessH2154 above all thine abominationsH8441.
Behold, every one that useth proverbsH4911 shall use this proverbH4911 against thee, sayingH559, As is the motherH517, so is her daughterH1323.
Thou art thy mother'sH517 daughterH1323, that lothethH1602 her husbandH376 and her childrenH1121; and thou art the sisterH269 of thy sistersH269, which lothedH1602 their husbandsH582 and their childrenH1121: your motherH517 was an HittiteH2850, and your fatherH1 an AmoriteH567.
And thine elderH1419 sisterH269 is SamariaH8111, she and her daughtersH1323 that dwellH3427 at thy left handH8040: and thy youngerH6996 sisterH269, that dwellethH3427 at thy right handH3225, is SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323. {thy younger: Heb. lesser than thou}
Yet hast thou not walkedH1980 after their waysH1870, nor doneH6213 after their abominationsH8441: but, as if that were a veryH6985 littleH4592+H6962 thing, thou wast corruptedH7843 more than theyH2004 in all thy waysH1870. {as if…: or, that was lothed as a small thing}
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, SodomH5467 thy sisterH269 hath not doneH6213, she nor her daughtersH1323, as thou hast doneH6213, thou and thy daughtersH1323.
Behold, this was the iniquityH5771 of thy sisterH269 SodomH5467, prideH1347, fulnessH7653 of breadH3899, and abundanceH7962 of idlenessH8252 was in her and in her daughtersH1323, neither did she strengthenH2388 the handH3027 of the poorH6041 and needyH34.
And they were haughtyH1361, and committedH6213 abominationH8441 beforeH6440 me: therefore I took them awayH5493 as I sawH7200 good.
Neither hath SamariaH8111 committedH2398 halfH2677 of thy sinsH2403; but thou hast multipliedH7235 thine abominationsH8441 more than theyH2007, and hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269 in all thine abominationsH8441 which thou hast doneH6213.
Thou also, which hast judgedH6419 thy sistersH269, bearH5375 thine own shameH3639 for thy sinsH2403 that thou hast committed more abominableH8581 than theyH2004: they are more righteousH6663 than thou: yea, be thou confoundedH954 also, and bearH5375 thy shameH3639, in that thou hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269.
When I shall bring againH7725 their captivityH7622+H7622, the captivityH7622+H7622 of SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, and the captivityH7622+H7622 of SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323, then will I bring again the captivityH7622+H7622 of thy captivesH7622 in the midstH8432 of them:
That thou mayest bearH5375 thine own shameH3639, and mayest be confoundedH3637 in all that thou hast doneH6213, in that thou art a comfortH5162 unto them.
When thy sistersH269, SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, shall returnH7725 to their former estateH6927, and SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to their former estateH6927, then thou and thy daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to your former estateH6927.
For thy sisterH269 SodomH5467 was not mentionedH8052 by thy mouthH6310 in the dayH3117 of thy prideH1347, {mentioned: Heb. for a report, or, hearing} {pride: Heb. prides, or, excellencies}
Before thy wickednessH7451 was discoveredH1540, as at the timeH6256 of thy reproachH2781 of the daughtersH1323 of SyriaH758, and all that are round aboutH5439 her, the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430, which despiseH7590 thee round aboutH5439. {Syria: Heb. Aram} {despise: or, spoil}
Thou hast borneH5375 thy lewdnessH2154 and thine abominationsH8441, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {borne: Heb. borne them}
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will even dealH6213 with thee as thou hast doneH6213, which hast despisedH959 the oathH423 in breakingH6565 the covenantH1285.
Nevertheless I will rememberH2142 my covenantH1285 with thee in the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, and I will establishH6965 unto thee an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285.
Then thou shalt rememberH2142 thy waysH1870, and be ashamedH3637, when thou shalt receiveH3947 thy sistersH269, thine elderH1419 and thy youngerH6996: and I will giveH5414 them unto thee for daughtersH1323, but not by thy covenantH1285.
And I will establishH6965 my covenantH1285 with thee; and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068:
That thou mayest rememberH2142, and be confoundedH954, and never openH6610 thy mouthH6310 any more becauseH6440 of thy shameH3639, when I am pacifiedH3722 toward thee for all that thou hast doneH6213, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
But I saidH559 unto their childrenH1121 in the wildernessH4057, WalkH3212 ye not in the statutesH2706 of your fathersH1, neither observeH8104 their judgmentsH4941, nor defileH2930 yourselves with their idolsH1544:
I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430; walkH3212 in my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 my judgmentsH4941, and doH6213 them;
And hallowH6942 my sabbathsH7676; and they shall be a signH226 between me and you, that ye may knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
Notwithstanding the childrenH1121 rebelledH4784 against me: they walkedH1980 not in my statutesH2708, neither keptH8104 my judgmentsH4941 to doH6213 them, which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall even liveH2425 in them; they pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676: then I saidH559, I would pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon them, to accomplishH3615 my angerH639 against them in the wildernessH4057.
Nevertheless I withdrewH7725 mine handH3027, and wroughtH6213 for my name'sH8034 sake, that it should not be pollutedH2490 in the sightH5869 of the heathenH1471, in whose sightH5869 I brought them forthH3318.
I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them also in the wildernessH4057, that I would scatterH6327 them among the heathenH1471, and disperseH2219 them through the countriesH776;
Because they had not executedH6213 my judgmentsH4941, but had despisedH3988 my statutesH2708, and had pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676, and their eyesH5869 were afterH310 their fathers'H1 idolsH1544.
Wherefore I gaveH5414 them also statutesH2706 that were not goodH2896, and judgmentsH4941 whereby they should not liveH2421;
And I pollutedH2930 them in their own giftsH4979, in that they caused to pass throughH5674 the fire all that openethH6363 the wombH7356, that I might make them desolateH8074, to the end that they might knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Therefore, sonH1121 of manH120, speakH1696 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Yet in this your fathersH1 have blasphemedH1442 me, in that they have committedH4603 a trespassH4604 against me. {committed…: Heb. trespassed a trespass}
For when I had broughtH935 them into the landH776, for the which I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 to giveH5414 it to them, then they sawH7200 every highH7311 hillH1389, and all the thickH5687 treesH6086, and they offeredH2076 there their sacrificesH2077, and there they presentedH5414 the provocationH3708 of their offeringH7133: there also they madeH7760 their sweetH5207 savourH7381, and poured outH5258 there their drink offeringsH5262.
Then I saidH559 unto them, What is the high placeH1116 whereunto ye goH935? And the nameH8034 thereof is calledH7121 BamahH1117 unto this dayH3117. {I said…: or, I told them what the high place was, or, Bamah}
Wherefore sayH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Are ye pollutedH2930 after the mannerH1870 of your fathersH1? and commit ye whoredomH2181 afterH310 their abominationsH8251?
And the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1 sentH7971 to them byH3027 his messengersH4397, rising up betimesH7925, and sendingH7971; because he had compassionH2550 on his peopleH5971, and on his dwelling placeH4583: {by: Heb. by the hand of} {betimes: that is, continually and carefully}
And it came to pass in the seventhH7637 yearH8141, in the fifthH2549 month, the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, that certainH582 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to enquireH1875 of the LORDH3068, and satH3427 beforeH6440 me.
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, speakH1696 unto the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Are ye comeH935 to enquireH1875 of me? As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will not be enquiredH1875 of by you.
Wilt thou judgeH8199 them, sonH1121 of manH120, wilt thou judgeH8199 them? cause them to knowH3045 the abominationsH8441 of their fathersH1: {Wilt…: or, Wilt thou plead for them}
And sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; In the dayH3117 when I choseH977 IsraelH3478, and lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 unto the seedH2233 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and made myself knownH3045 unto them in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, when I liftedH5375 up mine handH3027 unto them, sayingH559, I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430; {lifted…: or, sware}
In the dayH3117 that I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them, to bring them forthH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 into a landH776 that I had espiedH8446 for them, flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, which is the gloryH6643 of all landsH776:
Then saidH559 I unto them, Cast ye awayH7993 every manH376 the abominationsH8251 of his eyesH5869, and defileH2930 not yourselves with the idolsH1544 of EgyptH4714: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
But they rebelledH4784 against me, and wouldH14 not hearkenH8085 unto me: they did not every manH376 cast awayH7993 the abominationsH8251 of their eyesH5869, neither did they forsakeH5800 the idolsH1544 of EgyptH4714: then I saidH559, I will pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon them, to accomplishH3615 my angerH639 against them in the midstH8432 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
But I wroughtH6213 for my name'sH8034 sake, that it should not be pollutedH2490 beforeH5869 the heathenH1471, amongH8432 whom they were, in whose sightH5869 I made myself knownH3045 unto them, in bringing them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Wherefore I caused them to go forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and broughtH935 them into the wildernessH4057.
And I gaveH5414 them my statutesH2708, and shewedH3045 them my judgmentsH4941, which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall even liveH2425 in them. {shewed…: Heb. made them to know}
Moreover also I gaveH5414 them my sabbathsH7676, to be a signH226 between me and them, that they might knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 that sanctifyH6942 them.
But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 rebelledH4784 against me in the wildernessH4057: they walkedH1980 not in my statutesH2708, and they despisedH3988 my judgmentsH4941, which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall even liveH2425 in them; and my sabbathsH7676 they greatlyH3966 pollutedH2490: then I saidH559, I would pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon them in the wildernessH4057, to consumeH3615 them.
But I wroughtH6213 for my name'sH8034 sake, that it should not be pollutedH2490 beforeH5869 the heathenH1471, in whose sightH5869 I brought them outH3318.
Yet also I lifted upH5375 my handH3027 unto them in the wildernessH4057, that I would not bringH935 them into the landH776 which I had givenH5414 them, flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, which is the gloryH6643 of all landsH776;
Because they despisedH3988 my judgmentsH4941, and walkedH1980 not in my statutesH2708, but pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676: for their heartH3820 wentH1980 afterH310 their idolsH1544.
Nevertheless mine eyeH5869 sparedH2347 them from destroyingH7843 them, neither did I makeH6213 an endH3617 of them in the wildernessH4057.
But I saidH559 unto their childrenH1121 in the wildernessH4057, WalkH3212 ye not in the statutesH2706 of your fathersH1, neither observeH8104 their judgmentsH4941, nor defileH2930 yourselves with their idolsH1544:
I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430; walkH3212 in my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 my judgmentsH4941, and doH6213 them;
And hallowH6942 my sabbathsH7676; and they shall be a signH226 between me and you, that ye may knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
Notwithstanding the childrenH1121 rebelledH4784 against me: they walkedH1980 not in my statutesH2708, neither keptH8104 my judgmentsH4941 to doH6213 them, which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall even liveH2425 in them; they pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676: then I saidH559, I would pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon them, to accomplishH3615 my angerH639 against them in the wildernessH4057.
Nevertheless I withdrewH7725 mine handH3027, and wroughtH6213 for my name'sH8034 sake, that it should not be pollutedH2490 in the sightH5869 of the heathenH1471, in whose sightH5869 I brought them forthH3318.
I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them also in the wildernessH4057, that I would scatterH6327 them among the heathenH1471, and disperseH2219 them through the countriesH776;
Because they had not executedH6213 my judgmentsH4941, but had despisedH3988 my statutesH2708, and had pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676, and their eyesH5869 were afterH310 their fathers'H1 idolsH1544.
Wherefore I gaveH5414 them also statutesH2706 that were not goodH2896, and judgmentsH4941 whereby they should not liveH2421;
And I pollutedH2930 them in their own giftsH4979, in that they caused to pass throughH5674 the fire all that openethH6363 the wombH7356, that I might make them desolateH8074, to the end that they might knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Therefore, sonH1121 of manH120, speakH1696 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Yet in this your fathersH1 have blasphemedH1442 me, in that they have committedH4603 a trespassH4604 against me. {committed…: Heb. trespassed a trespass}
For when I had broughtH935 them into the landH776, for the which I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 to giveH5414 it to them, then they sawH7200 every highH7311 hillH1389, and all the thickH5687 treesH6086, and they offeredH2076 there their sacrificesH2077, and there they presentedH5414 the provocationH3708 of their offeringH7133: there also they madeH7760 their sweetH5207 savourH7381, and poured outH5258 there their drink offeringsH5262.
Then I saidH559 unto them, What is the high placeH1116 whereunto ye goH935? And the nameH8034 thereof is calledH7121 BamahH1117 unto this dayH3117. {I said…: or, I told them what the high place was, or, Bamah}
Wherefore sayH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Are ye pollutedH2930 after the mannerH1870 of your fathersH1? and commit ye whoredomH2181 afterH310 their abominationsH8251?
For when ye offerH5375 your giftsH4979, when ye make your sonsH1121 to pass throughH5674 the fireH784, ye polluteH2930 yourselves with all your idolsH1544, even unto this dayH3117: and shall I be enquiredH1875 of by you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will not be enquiredH1875 of by you.
And that which comethH5927 into your mindH7307 shall not be at all, that ye sayH559, We will beH1961 as the heathenH1471, as the familiesH4940 of the countriesH776, to serveH8334 woodH6086 and stoneH68.
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, surely with a mightyH2389 handH3027, and with a stretched outH5186 armH2220, and with furyH2534 poured outH8210, will I ruleH4427 over you:
And I will bring you outH3318 from the peopleH5971, and will gatherH6908 you out of the countriesH776 wherein ye are scatteredH6327, with a mightyH2389 handH3027, and with a stretched outH5186 armH2220, and with furyH2534 poured outH8210.
And I will bringH935 you into the wildernessH4057 of the peopleH5971, and there will I pleadH8199 with you faceH6440 to faceH6440.
Like as I pleadedH8199 with your fathersH1 in the wildernessH4057 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, so will I pleadH8199 with you, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
And I will cause you to passH5674 under the rodH7626, and I will bringH935 you into the bondH4562 of the covenantH1285: {bond: or, delivering}
And I will purge outH1305 from among you the rebelsH4775, and them that transgressH6586 against me: I will bring them forthH3318 out of the countryH776 where they sojournH4033, and they shall not enterH935 into the landH127 of IsraelH3478: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
As for you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; GoH3212 ye, serveH5647 ye every oneH376 his idolsH1544, and hereafterH310 also, if ye will not hearkenH8085 unto me: but polluteH2490 ye my holyH6944 nameH8034 no more with your giftsH4979, and with your idolsH1544.
For in mine holyH6944 mountainH2022, in the mountainH2022 of the heightH4791 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, there shall all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, all of them in the landH776, serveH5647 me: there will I acceptH7521 them, and there will I requireH1875 your offeringsH8641, and the firstfruitsH7225 of your oblationsH4864, with all your holy thingsH6944. {firstfruits: or, chief}
I will acceptH7521 you with your sweetH5207 savourH7381, when I bring you outH3318 from the peopleH5971, and gatherH6908 you out of the countriesH776 wherein ye have been scatteredH6327; and I will be sanctifiedH6942 in you beforeH5869 the heathenH1471. {sweet…: Heb. savour of rest}
And ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I shall bringH935 you into the landH127 of IsraelH3478, into the countryH776 for the which I lifted upH5375 mine handH3027 to giveH5414 it to your fathersH1.
And there shall ye rememberH2142 your waysH1870, and all your doingsH5949, wherein ye have been defiledH2930; and ye shall lotheH6962 yourselves in your own sightH6440 for all your evilsH7451 that ye have committedH6213.
And ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I have wroughtH6213 with you for my name'sH8034 sake, not according to your wickedH7451 waysH1870, nor according to your corruptH7843 doingsH5949, O ye houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 towardH1870 the southH8486, and dropH5197 thy word toward the southH1864, and prophesyH5012 against the forestH3293 of the southH5045 fieldH7704;
And sayH559 to the forestH3293 of the southH5045, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068; Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in thee, and it shall devourH398 every greenH3892 treeH6086 in thee, and every dryH3002 treeH6086: the flamingH3852 flameH7957 shall not be quenchedH3518, and all facesH6440 from the southH5045 to the northH6828 shall be burnedH6866 therein.
And all fleshH1320 shall seeH7200 that I the LORDH3068 have kindledH1197 it: it shall not be quenchedH3518.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! they sayH559 of me, Doth he not speakH4911 parablesH4912?
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 gatheredH6950 the congregationH6951 together beforeH6440 the rockH5553, and he saidH559 unto them, HearH8085 now, ye rebelsH4784; must we fetchH3318 you waterH4325 out of this rockH5553?
But they mockedH3931 the messengersH4397 of GodH430, and despisedH959 his wordsH1697, and misusedH8591 his prophetsH5030, until the wrathH2534 of the LORDH3068 aroseH5927 against his peopleH5971, till there was no remedyH4832. {remedy: Heb. healing}
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, there were twoH8147 womenH802, the daughtersH1323 of oneH259 motherH517:
And they committed whoredomsH2181 in EgyptH4714; they committed whoredomsH2181 in their youthH5271: there were their breastsH7699 pressedH4600, and there they bruisedH6213 the teatsH1717 of their virginityH1331.
And the namesH8034 of them were AholahH170 the elderH1419, and AholibahH172 her sisterH269: and they were mine, and they bareH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323. Thus were their namesH8034; SamariaH8111 is AholahH170, and JerusalemH3389 AholibahH172. {Aholah: that is, His tent, or, tabernacle} {Aholibah: that is, My tabernacle in her}
And AholahH170 played the harlotH2181 when she was mineH8478; and she dotedH5689 on her loversH157, on the AssyriansH804 her neighboursH7138,
Which were clothedH3847 with blueH8504, captainsH6346 and rulersH5461, all of them desirableH2531 young menH970, horsemenH6571 ridingH7392 upon horsesH5483.
Thus she committedH5414 her whoredomsH8457 with them, with all them that were the chosenH4005 menH1121 of AssyriaH804, and with all on whom she dotedH5689: with all their idolsH1544 she defiledH2930 herself. {committed…: Heb. bestowed her whoredoms upon them} {the chosen…: Heb. the choice of the children of Asshur}
Neither leftH5800 she her whoredomsH8457 brought from EgyptH4714: for in her youthH5271 they layH7901 with her, and they bruisedH6213 the breastsH1717 of her virginityH1331, and pouredH8210 their whoredomH8457 upon her.
Wherefore I have deliveredH5414 her into the handH3027 of her loversH157, into the handH3027 of the AssyriansH1121+H804, upon whom she dotedH5689.
These discoveredH1540 her nakednessH6172: they tookH3947 her sonsH1121 and her daughtersH1323, and slewH2026 her with the swordH2719: and she became famousH8034 among womenH802; for they had executedH6213 judgmentH8196 upon her. {famous: Heb. a name}
And when her sisterH269 AholibahH172 sawH7200 this, she was more corruptH7843 in her inordinate loveH5691 than she, and in her whoredomsH8457 more than her sisterH269 in her whoredomsH2183. {she was…: Heb. she corrupted her inordinate love more than, etc} {more than…: Heb. more than the whoredoms of her sister}
She dotedH5689 upon the AssyriansH1121+H804 her neighboursH7138, captainsH6346 and rulersH5461 clothedH3847 most gorgeouslyH4358, horsemenH6571 ridingH7392 upon horsesH5483, all of them desirableH2531 young menH970.
Then I sawH7200 that she was defiledH2930, that they took bothH8147 oneH259 wayH1870,
And that she increasedH3254 her whoredomsH8457: for when she sawH7200 menH582 pourtrayedH2707 upon the wallH7023, the imagesH6754 of the ChaldeansH3778 pourtrayedH2710 with vermilionH8350,
GirdedH2289 with girdlesH232 upon their loinsH4975, exceedingH5628 in dyed attireH2871 upon their headsH7218, all of them princesH7991 to look toH4758, after the mannerH1823 of the BabyloniansH1121+H894 of ChaldeaH3778, the landH776 of their nativityH4138:
And as soon as she sawH4758 them with her eyesH5869, she dotedH5689 upon them, and sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto them into ChaldeaH3778. {as soon…: Heb. at the sight of her eyes}
And the BabyloniansH1121+H894 cameH935 to her into the bedH4904 of loveH1730, and they defiledH2930 her with their whoredomH8457, and she was pollutedH2930 with them, and her mindH5315 was alienatedH3363 from them. {Babylonians: Heb. children of Babel} {alienated: Heb. loosed, or, disjointed}
So she discoveredH1540 her whoredomsH8457, and discoveredH1540 her nakednessH6172: then my mindH5315 was alienatedH3363 from her, like as my mindH5315 was alienatedH5361 from her sisterH269.
Yet she multipliedH7235 her whoredomsH8457, in calling to remembranceH2142 the daysH3117 of her youthH5271, wherein she had played the harlotH2181 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
For she dotedH5689 upon their paramoursH6370, whose fleshH1320 is as the fleshH1320 of assesH2543, and whose issueH2231 is like the issueH2231 of horsesH5483.
Thus thou calledst to remembranceH6485 the lewdnessH2154 of thy youthH5271, in bruisingH6213 thy teatsH1717 by the EgyptiansH4714 for the papsH7699 of thy youthH5271.
Therefore, O AholibahH172, thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will raise upH5782 thy loversH157 against thee, from whom thy mindH5315 is alienatedH5361, and I will bringH935 them against thee on every sideH5439;
The BabyloniansH1121+H894, and all the ChaldeansH3778, PekodH6489, and ShoaH7772, and KoaH6970, and all the AssyriansH1121+H804 with them: all of them desirableH2531 young menH970, captainsH6346 and rulersH5461, great lordsH7991 and renownedH7121, all of them ridingH7392 upon horsesH5483.
And they shall comeH935 against thee with chariotsH2021, wagonsH7393, and wheelsH1534, and with an assemblyH6951 of peopleH5971, which shall setH7760 against thee bucklerH6793 and shieldH4043 and helmetH6959 round aboutH5439: and I will setH5414 judgmentH4941 beforeH6440 them, and they shall judgeH8199 thee according to their judgmentsH4941.
And I will setH5414 my jealousyH7068 against thee, and they shall dealH6213 furiouslyH2534 with thee: they shall take awayH5493 thy noseH639 and thine earsH241; and thy remnantH319 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719: they shall takeH3947 thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323; and thy residueH319 shall be devouredH398 by the fireH784.
They shall also stripH6584 thee out of thy clothesH899, and take awayH3947 thy fairH8597 jewelsH3627. {fair…: Heb. instruments of thy decking}
Thus will I make thy lewdnessH2154 to ceaseH7673 from thee, and thy whoredomH2184 brought from the landH776 of EgyptH4714: so that thou shalt not lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 unto them, nor rememberH2142 EgyptH4714 any more.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will deliverH5414 thee into the handH3027 of them whom thou hatestH8130, into the handH3027 of them from whom thy mindH5315 is alienatedH5361:
And they shall dealH6213 with thee hatefullyH8135, and shall take awayH3947 all thy labourH3018, and shall leaveH5800 thee nakedH5903 and bareH6181: and the nakednessH6172 of thy whoredomsH2183 shall be discoveredH1540, both thy lewdnessH2154 and thy whoredomsH8457.
I will doH6213 these things unto thee, because thou hast gone a whoringH2181 afterH310 the heathenH1471, and because thou art pollutedH2930 with their idolsH1544.
Thou hast walkedH1980 in the wayH1870 of thy sisterH269; therefore will I giveH5414 her cupH3563 into thine handH3027.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Thou shalt drinkH8354 of thy sister'sH269 cupH3563 deepH6013 and largeH7342: thou shalt be laughed to scornH6712 and had in derisionH3933; it containethH3557 muchH4767.
Thou shalt be filledH4390 with drunkennessH7943 and sorrowH3015, with the cupH3563 of astonishmentH8047 and desolationH8077, with the cupH3563 of thy sisterH269 SamariaH8111.
Thou shalt even drinkH8354 it and suck it outH4680, and thou shalt breakH1633 the sherdsH2789 thereof, and pluck offH5423 thine own breastsH7699: for I have spokenH1696 it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou hast forgottenH7911 me, and castH7993 me behindH310 thy backH1458, therefore bearH5375 thou also thy lewdnessH2154 and thy whoredomsH8457.
The LORDH3068 saidH559 moreover unto me; SonH1121 of manH120, wilt thou judgeH8199 AholahH170 and AholibahH172? yea, declareH5046 unto them their abominationsH8441; {judge: or, plead for}
That they have committed adulteryH5003, and bloodH1818 is in their handsH3027, and with their idolsH1544 have they committed adulteryH5003, and have also caused their sonsH1121, whom they bareH3205 unto me, to pass for them throughH5674 the fire, to devourH402 them.
Moreover this they have doneH6213 unto me: they have defiledH2930 my sanctuaryH4720 in the same dayH3117, and have profanedH2490 my sabbathsH7676.
For when they had slainH7819 their childrenH1121 to their idolsH1544, then they cameH935 the same dayH3117 into my sanctuaryH4720 to profaneH2490 it; and, lo, thus have they doneH6213 in the midstH8432 of mine houseH1004.
And furthermoreH637, that ye have sentH7971 for menH582 to comeH935 from farH4801, unto whom a messengerH4397 was sentH7971; and, lo, they cameH935: for whom thou didst washH7364 thyself, paintedstH3583 thy eyesH5869, and deckedstH5710 thyself with ornamentsH5716, {to come: Heb. coming}
And satestH3427 upon a statelyH3520 bedH4296, and a tableH7979 preparedH6186 beforeH6440 it, whereupon thou hast setH7760 mine incenseH7004 and mine oilH8081. {stately: Heb. honourable}
And a voiceH6963 of a multitudeH1995 being at easeH7961 was with her: and with the menH582 of the common sortH7230+H120 were broughtH935 SabeansH5436+H5433 from the wildernessH4057, which putH5414 braceletsH6781 upon their handsH3027, and beautifulH8597 crownsH5850 upon their headsH7218. {of the…: Heb. of the multitude of men} {Sabeans: or, drunkards}
Then saidH559 I unto her that was oldH1087 in adulteriesH5004, Will they now commitH2181 whoredomsH8457 with her, and she with them? {whoredoms…: Heb. her whoredoms}
Yet they went inH935 unto her, as they go inH935 unto a womanH802 that playeth the harlotH2181: so went they inH935 unto AholahH170 and unto AholibahH172, the lewdH2154 womenH802.
And the righteousH6662 menH582, they shall judgeH8199 them after the mannerH4941 of adulteressesH5003, and after the mannerH4941 of women that shedH8210 bloodH1818; because they are adulteressesH5003, and bloodH1818 is in their handsH3027.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will bring upH5927 a companyH6951 upon them, and will giveH5414 them to be removedH2189 and spoiledH957. {to be…: Heb. for a removing and spoil}
And the companyH6951 shall stoneH7275 them with stonesH68, and dispatchH1254 them with their swordsH2719; they shall slayH2026 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323, and burn upH8313 their housesH1004 with fireH784. {dispatch…: or, single them out}
Thus will I cause lewdnessH2154 to ceaseH7673 out of the landH776, that all womenH802 may be taughtH3256 not to doH6213 after your lewdnessH2154.
And they shall recompenseH5414 your lewdnessH2154 upon you, and ye shall bearH5375 the sinsH2399 of your idolsH1544: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH3069.
And the LORD'SH3068 angerH639 was kindledH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he made them wanderH5128 in the wildernessH4057 fortyH705 yearsH8141, until all the generationH1755, that had doneH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, was consumedH8552.
Also I heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LordH136, sayingH559, Whom shall I sendH7971, and who will goH3212 for us? Then saidH559 I, Here am I; sendH7971 me. {Here…: Heb. behold me}
And he saidH559, GoH3212, and tellH559 this peopleH5971, HearH8085 ye indeedH8085, but understandH995 not; and seeH7200 ye indeedH7200, but perceiveH3045 not. {indeed, but understand: or, without ceasing, etc: Heb. in hearing, etc}
Make the heartH3820 of this peopleH5971 fatH8080, and make their earsH241 heavyH3513, and shutH8173 their eyesH5869; lest they seeH7200 with their eyesH5869, and hearH8085 with their earsH241, and understandH995 with their heartH3824, and convertH7725, and be healedH7495.
And, behold, ye are risen upH6965 in your fathers'H1 stead, an increaseH8635 of sinfulH2400 menH582, to augmentH5595 yet the fierceH2740 angerH639 of the LORDH3068 toward IsraelH3478.
But the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, SayH559 not, I am a childH5288: for thou shalt goH3212 to all that I shall sendH7971 thee, and whatsoever I commandH6680 thee thou shalt speakH1696.
StandH5975 in the gateH8179 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and proclaimH7121 there this wordH1697, and sayH559, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, all ye of JudahH3063, that enter inH935 at these gatesH8179 to worshipH7812 the LORDH3068.
RememberH2142 thy servantsH5650, AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and JacobH3290; lookH6437 not unto the stubbornnessH7190 of this peopleH5971, nor to their wickednessH7562, nor to their sinH2403:
From the thirteenthH7969+H6240 yearH8141 of JosiahH2977 the sonH1121 of AmonH526 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, even unto this dayH3117, that is the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 hath come unto me, and I have spokenH1696 unto you, rising earlyH7925 and speakingH1696; but ye have not hearkenedH8085.
And the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 unto you all his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, rising earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them; but ye have not hearkenedH8085, nor inclinedH5186 your earH241 to hearH8085.
They saidH559, Turn ye againH7725 now every oneH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and from the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611, and dwellH3427 in the landH127 that the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 unto you and to your fathersH1 forH5704 everH5769 and everH5769:
And goH3212 not afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and to worshipH7812 them, and provoke me not to angerH3707 with the worksH4639 of your handsH3027; and I will do you no hurtH7489.
Yet ye have not hearkenedH8085 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; that ye might provoke me to angerH3707 with the worksH4639 of your handsH3027 to your own hurtH7451.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, HearkenH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the peopleH5971 in all that they sayH559 unto thee: for they have not rejectedH3988 thee, but they have rejectedH3988 me, that I should not reignH4427 over them.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; StandH5975 in the courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and speakH1696 unto all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, which comeH935 to worshipH7812 in the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, all the wordsH1697 that I commandH6680 thee to speakH1696 unto them; diminishH1639 not a wordH1697:
If so be they will hearkenH8085, and turnH7725 every manH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, that I may repentH5162 me of the evilH7451, which I purposeH2803 to doH6213 unto them becauseH6440 of the evilH7455 of their doingsH4611.
And thou shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; If ye will not hearkenH8085 to me, to walkH3212 in my lawH8451, which I have setH5414 beforeH6440 you,
To hearkenH8085 to the wordsH1697 of my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, whom I sentH7971 unto you, both rising up earlyH7925, and sendingH7971 them, but ye have not hearkenedH8085;
Then will I makeH5414 this houseH1004 like ShilohH7887, and will makeH5414 this cityH5892 a curseH7045 to all the nationsH1471 of the earthH776.
According to all the worksH4639 which they have doneH6213 since the dayH3117 that I brought them upH5927 out of EgyptH4714 even unto this dayH3117, wherewith they have forsakenH5800 me, and servedH5647 otherH312 godsH430, so doH6213 they also unto thee.
TakeH3947 thee a rollH4039 of a bookH5612, and writeH3789 therein all the wordsH1697 that I have spokenH1696 unto thee against IsraelH3478, and against JudahH3063, and against all the nationsH1471, from the dayH3117 I spakeH1696 unto thee, from the daysH3117 of JosiahH2977, even unto this dayH3117.
And they caused their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 to passH5674 through the fireH784, and usedH7080 divinationH7081 and enchantmentsH5172, and soldH4376 themselves to doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, to provoke him to angerH3707.
Therefore the LORDH3068 was veryH3966 angryH599 with IsraelH3478, and removedH5493 them out of his sightH6440: there was none leftH7604 but the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063 only.
Also JudahH3063 keptH8104 not the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, but walkedH3212 in the statutesH2708 of IsraelH3478 which they madeH6213.
And the LORDH3068 rejectedH3988 all the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478, and afflictedH6031 them, and deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of spoilersH8154, until he had castH7993 them out of his sightH6440.
AndG2532 at the seasonG2540 he sentG649 toG4314 the husbandmenG1092 a servantG1401, thatG2443 he might receiveG2983 fromG3844 the husbandmenG1092 ofG575 the fruitG2590 of the vineyardG290.
AndG1161 they caughtG2983 him, and beatG1194 himG846, andG2532 sent him awayG649 emptyG2756.
AndG2532 againG3825 he sentG649 untoG4314 themG846 anotherG243 servantG1401; and at himG2548 they cast stonesG3036, and wounded him in the headG2775, andG2532 sent him awayG649 shamefully handledG821.
AndG2532 againG3825 he sentG649 anotherG243; and himG2548 they killedG615, andG2532 manyG4183 othersG243+G3303; beating someG1194, andG1161 killing someG615.
Since the daysH3117 of our fathersH1 have we been in a greatH1419 trespassH819 unto this dayH3117; and for our iniquitiesH5771 have we, our kingsH4428, and our priestsH3548, been deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingsH4428 of the landsH776, to the swordH2719, to captivityH7628, and to a spoilH961, and to confusionH1322 of faceH6440, as it is this dayH3117.
AndG2532 that repentanceG3341 andG2532 remissionG859 of sinsG266 should be preachedG2784 inG1909 hisG846 nameG3686 amongG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484, beginningG756 atG575 JerusalemG2419.
But they and our fathersH1 dealt proudlyH2102, and hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, and hearkenedH8085 not to thy commandmentsH4687,
And refusedH3985 to obeyH8085, neither were mindfulH2142 of thy wondersH6381 that thou didstH6213 among them; but hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, and in their rebellionH4805 appointedH5414 a captainH7218 to returnH7725 to their bondageH5659: but thou art a GodH433 ready to pardonH5547, graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and forsookestH5800 them not. {a God…: Heb. a God of pardons}
Yea, when they had madeH6213 them a moltenH4541 calfH5695, and saidH559, This is thy GodH430 that brought thee upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, and had wroughtH6213 greatH1419 provocationsH5007;
Nevertheless they were disobedientH4784, and rebelledH4775 against thee, and castH7993 thy lawH8451 behindH310 their backsH1458, and slewH2026 thy prophetsH5030 which testifiedH5749 against them to turnH7725 them to thee, and they wroughtH6213 greatH1419 provocationsH5007.
ThenG3767 saidG2036 JesusG2424 to themG846 againG3825, PeaceG1515 be unto youG5213: asG2531 my FatherG3962 hath sentG649 meG3165, even soG2504 sendG3992 IG2504 youG5209.
Howbeit thou art justH6662 in all that is broughtH935 upon us; for thou hast doneH6213 rightH571, but we have done wickedlyH7561:
Neither have our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, our priestsH3548, nor our fathersH1, keptH6213 thy lawH8451, nor hearkenedH7181 unto thy commandmentsH4687 and thy testimoniesH5715, wherewith thou didst testifyH5749 against them.
For they have not servedH5647 thee in their kingdomH4438, and in thy greatH7227 goodnessH2898 that thou gavestH5414 them, and in the largeH7342 and fatH8082 landH776 which thou gavestH5414 beforeH6440 them, neither turnedH7725 they from their wickedH7451 worksH4611.
AndG2532 when he had saidG2036 thisG5124, he breathed onG1720 them, andG2532 saithG3004 unto themG846, Receive yeG2983 the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
They enviedH7065 MosesH4872 also in the campH4264, and AaronH175 the saintH6918 of the LORDH3068.
The earthH776 openedH6605 and swallowed upH1104 DathanH1885, and coveredH3680 the companyH5712 of AbiramH48.
And a fireH784 was kindledH1197 in their companyH5712; the flameH3852 burned upH3857 the wickedH7563.
They madeH6213 a calfH5695 in HorebH2722, and worshippedH7812 the molten imageH4541.
Thus they changedH4171 their gloryH3519 into the similitudeH8403 of an oxH7794 that eatethH398 grassH6212.
They forgatH7911 GodH410 their saviourH3467, which had doneH6213 great thingsH1419 in EgyptH4714;
AndG1161 howG4459 shall they preachG2784, exceptG3362 they be sentG649? asG2531 it is writtenG1125, HowG5613 beautifulG5611 are the feet of themG4228 that preach the gospelG2097 of peaceG1515, and bring glad tidingsG2097 of good thingsG18!
They joinedH6775 themselves also unto BaalpeorH1187, and ateH398 the sacrificesH2077 of the deadH4191.
They angeredH7107 him also at the watersH4325 of strifeH4808+H4809, so that it went illH3415 with MosesH4872 for their sakes:
Because they provokedH4784 his spiritH7307, so that he spake unadvisedlyH981 with his lipsH8193.
They did not destroyH8045 the nationsH5971, concerning whom the LORDH3068 commandedH559 them:
But were mingledH6148 among the heathenH1471, and learnedH3925 their worksH4639.
And they servedH5647 their idolsH6091: which were a snareH4170 unto them.
Yea, they sacrificedH2076 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 unto devilsH7700,
And shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, even the bloodH1818 of their sonsH1121 and of their daughtersH1323, whom they sacrificedH2076 unto the idolsH6091 of CanaanH3667: and the landH776 was pollutedH2610 with bloodH1818.
Thus were they defiledH2930 with their own worksH4639, and went a whoringH2181 with their own inventionsH4611.
Therefore was the wrathH639 of the LORDH3068 kindledH2734 against his peopleH5971, insomuch that he abhorredH8581 his own inheritanceH5159.
We lie downH7901 in our shameH1322, and our confusionH3639 coverethH3680 us: for we have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068 our GodH430, we and our fathersH1, from our youthH5271 even unto this dayH3117, and have not obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
Then shalt thou sayH559 unto them, Because your fathersH1 have forsakenH5800 me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and have walkedH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, and have servedH5647 them, and have worshippedH7812 them, and have forsakenH5800 me, and have not keptH8104 my lawH8451;
And ye have doneH6213 worseH7489 than your fathersH1; for, beholdH2009, ye walkH1980 every oneH376 afterH310 the imaginationH8307 of his evilH7451 heartH3820, that they may not hearkenH8085 unto me: {imagination: or, stubbornness}
The incenseH7002 that ye burnedH6999 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, ye, and your fathersH1, your kingsH4428, and your princesH8269, and the peopleH5971 of the landH776, did not the LORDH3068 rememberH2142 them, and cameH5927 it not into his mindH3820?
We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941:
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
O LordH136, righteousnessH6666 belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusionH1322 of facesH6440, as at this dayH3117; to the menH376 of JudahH3063, and to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and unto all IsraelH3478, that are nearH7138, and that are far offH7350, through all the countriesH776 whither thou hast drivenH5080 them, because of their trespassH4604 that they have trespassedH4603 against thee. {belongeth…: or, thou hast}
O LORDH3068, to us belongeth confusionH1322 of faceH6440, to our kingsH4428, to our princesH8269, and to our fathersH1, because we have sinnedH2398 against thee.
To the LordH136 our GodH430 belong merciesH7356 and forgivenessesH5547, though we have rebelledH4775 against him;
Neither have we obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his lawsH8451, which he setH5414 beforeH6440 us byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
Yea, all IsraelH3478 have transgressedH5674 thy lawH8451, even by departingH5493, that they might not obeyH8085 thy voiceH6963; therefore the curseH423 is pouredH5413 upon us, and the oathH7621 that is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430, because we have sinnedH2398 against him.
And he hath confirmedH6965 his wordsH1697, which he spakeH1696 against us, and against our judgesH8199 that judgedH8199 us, by bringingH935 upon us a greatH1419 evilH7451: for under the whole heavenH8064 hath not been doneH6213 as hath been doneH6213 upon JerusalemH3389.
As it is writtenH3789 in the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, all this evilH7451 is comeH935 upon us: yet made we not our prayerH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, that we might turnH7725 from our iniquitiesH5771, and understandH7919 thy truthH571. {made…: Heb. intreated we not the face of the, etc}
