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.

And he spreadH6566 it beforeH6440 me; and it was writtenH3789 withinH6440 and withoutH268: and there was writtenH3789 therein lamentationsH7015, and mourningH1899, and woeH1958.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH1945 unto the foolishH5036 prophetsH5030, that followH1980+H310 their own spiritH7307, and have seenH7200 nothing! {follow: Heb. walk after} {and…: or, and things which they have not seen}

Wherefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH188 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892, to the potH5518 whose scumH2457 is therein, and whose scumH2457 is not gone outH3318 of it! bring it outH3318 pieceH5409 by pieceH5409; let no lotH1486 fallH5307 upon it.
I have seenH7200 thine adulteriesH5004, and thy neighingsH4684, the lewdnessH2154 of thy whoredomH2184, and thine abominationsH8251 on the hillsH1389 in the fieldsH7704.

WoeG3759 unto youG5213, ye blindG5185 guidesG3595, whichG3588 sayG3004, WhosoeverG3739+G302 shall swearG3660 byG1722 the templeG3485, it isG2076 nothingG3762; butG1161 whosoeverG3739+G302 shall swearG3660 byG1722 the goldG5557 of the templeG3485, he is a debtorG3784!
Ye foolsG3474 andG2532 blindG5185: forG1063 whetherG5101 isG2076 greaterG3187, the goldG5557, orG2228 the templeG3485 that sanctifiethG37 the goldG5557?
AndG2532, WhosoeverG3739+G1437 shall swearG3660 byG1722 the altarG2379, it isG2076 nothingG3762; butG1161 whosoeverG3739+G302 swearethG3660 byG1722 the giftG1435 that is uponG1883 itG846, he is guiltyG3784. {guilty: or, debtor, or, bound}
Ye foolsG3474 andG2532 blindG5185: forG1063 whetherG5101 is greaterG3187, the giftG1435, orG2228 the altarG2379 that sanctifiethG37 the giftG1435?

Ye blindG5185 guidesG3595, which strain atG1368 a gnatG2971, andG1161 swallowG2666 a camelG2574.
WoeG3759 unto youG5213, scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330, hypocritesG5273! forG3754 ye make cleanG2511 the outsideG1855 of the cupG4221 andG2532 of the platterG3953, butG1161 withinG2081 they are fullG1073 ofG1537 extortionG724 andG2532 excessG192.
Thou blindG5185 PhariseeG5330, cleanseG2511 firstG4412 that which is withinG1787 the cupG4221 andG2532 platterG3953, thatG2443 the outsideG1622 of themG846 may beG1096 cleanG2513 alsoG2532.
WoeG3759 unto youG5213, scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330, hypocritesG5273! forG3754 ye are likeG3945 unto whitedG2867 sepulchresG5028, whichG3748 indeedG3303 appearG5316 beautifulG5611 outwardG1855, butG1161 are withinG2081 fullG1073 of deadG3498 men's bonesG3747, andG2532 of allG3956 uncleannessG167.
Even soG3779 yeG5210 alsoG2532+G3303 outwardlyG1855 appearG5316 righteousG1342 unto menG444, butG1161 withinG2081 ye areG2075 fullG3324 of hypocrisyG5272 andG2532 iniquityG458.
WoeG3759 unto youG5213, scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330, hypocritesG5273! becauseG3754 ye buildG3618 the tombsG5028 of the prophetsG4396, andG2532 garnishG2885 the sepulchresG3419 of the righteousG1342,
AndG2532 I beheldG1492, andG2532 heardG191 anG1520 angelG32 flyingG4072 throughG1722 the midst of heavenG3321, sayingG3004 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, WoeG3759, woeG3759, woeG3759, to the inhabitersG2730 ofG1909 the earthG1093 by reason ofG1537 the otherG3062 voicesG5456 of the trumpetG4536 of the threeG5140 angelsG32, whichG3588 are yetG3195 to soundG4537!
ThereforeG1223+G5124 rejoiceG2165, ye heavensG3772, andG2532 ye that dwellG4637 inG1722 themG846. WoeG3759 to the inhabitersG2730 of the earthG1093 andG2532 of the seaG2281! forG3754 the devilG1228 is come downG2597 untoG4314 youG5209, havingG2192 greatG3173 wrathG2372, because he knowethG1492 thatG3754 he hathG2192 but a shortG3641 timeG2540.
