And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 toward JerusalemH3389, and dropH5197 thy word toward the holy placesH4720, and prophesyH5012 against the landH127 of IsraelH3478,
And sayH559 to the landH127 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forthH3318 my swordH2719 out of his sheathH8593, and will cut offH3772 from thee the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563.
SeeingH3282 then that I will cut offH3772 from thee the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563, therefore shall my swordH2719 go forthH3318 out of his sheathH8593 against all fleshH1320 from the southH5045 to the northH6828:
That all fleshH1320 may knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 have drawn forthH3318 my swordH2719 out of his sheathH8593: it shall not returnH7725 any more.
SighH584 therefore, thou sonH1121 of manH120, with the breakingH7670 of thy loinsH4975; and with bitternessH4814 sighH584 before their eyesH5869.
And it shall be, when they sayH559 unto thee, Wherefore sighestH584 thou? that thou shalt answerH559, For the tidingsH8052; because it comethH935: and every heartH3820 shall meltH4549, and all handsH3027 shall be feebleH7503, and every spiritH7307 shall faintH3543, and all kneesH1290 shall be weakH3212 as waterH4325: behold, it comethH935, and shall be brought to passH1961, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {shall be weak…: Heb. shall go into water}
Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; SayH559, A swordH2719, a swordH2719 is sharpenedH2300, and also furbishedH4803:
It is sharpenedH2300 to make a soreH2874 slaughterH2873; it is furbishedH4178 that it may glitterH1300: shouldH176 we then make mirthH7797? it contemnethH3988 the rodH7626 of my sonH1121, as every treeH6086. {it contemneth…: or, it is the rod of my son, it despiseth every tree}
And he hath givenH5414 it to be furbishedH4803, that it may be handledH3709+H8610: this swordH2719 is sharpenedH2300, and it is furbishedH4178, to giveH5414 it into the handH3027 of the slayerH2026.
CryH2199 and howlH3213, sonH1121 of manH120: for it shall be upon my peopleH5971, it shall be upon all the princesH5387 of IsraelH3478: terrorsH4048 by reason ofH413 the swordH2719 shall be upon my peopleH5971: smiteH5606 therefore upon thy thighH3409. {terrors…: or, they are thrust down to the sword with my people}
Because it is a trialH974, and what if the sword contemnH3988 even the rodH7626? it shall be no more, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {Because…: or, When the trial hath been, what then? shall they not also belong to the despising rod?}
Thou therefore, sonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012, and smiteH5221 thine handsH3709+H3709 togetherH5221, and let the swordH2719 be doubledH3717 the thirdH7992 time, the swordH2719 of the slainH2491: it is the swordH2719 of the greatH1419 men that are slainH2491, which entereth into their privy chambersH2314. {hands…: Heb. hand to hand}
I have setH5414 the pointH19 of the swordH2719 against all their gatesH8179, that their heartH3820 may faintH4127, and their ruinsH4383 be multipliedH7235: ahH253! it is madeH6213 brightH1300, it is wrapped upH4593 for the slaughterH2874. {point: or, glittering, or, fear} {wrapped up: or, sharpened}
Go thee one way or otherH258, either onH7760 the right handH3231, or on the leftH8041, whithersoeverH575 thy faceH6440 is setH3259. {or on…: Heb. set thyself, take the left hand}
I will also smiteH5221 mine handsH3709 togetherH3709, and I will cause my furyH2534 to restH5117: I the LORDH3068 have saidH1696 it.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me again, sayingH559,
Also, thou sonH1121 of manH120, appointH7760 thee twoH8147 waysH1870, that the swordH2719 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 may comeH935: both twainH8147 shall come forthH3318 out of oneH259 landH776: and chooseH1254 thou a placeH3027, chooseH1254 it at the headH7218 of the wayH1870 to the cityH5892.
AppointH7760 a wayH1870, that the swordH2719 may comeH935 to RabbathH7237 of the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, and to JudahH3063 in JerusalemH3389 the defencedH1219.
For the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 stoodH5975 at the partingH517 of the wayH1870, at the headH7218 of the twoH8147 waysH1870, to useH7080 divinationH7081: he made his arrowsH2671 brightH7043, he consultedH7592 with imagesH8655, he lookedH7200 in the liverH3516. {parting of: Heb. mother of} {arrows: or, knives} {images: Heb. teraphim}
At his right handH3225 was the divinationH7081 for JerusalemH3389, to appointH7760 captainsH3733, to openH6605 the mouthH6310 in the slaughterH7524, to lift upH7311 the voiceH6963 with shoutingH8643, to appointH7760 battering ramsH3733 against the gatesH8179, to castH8210 a mountH5550, and to buildH1129 a fortH1785. {captains: or, battering rams: Heb. rams}
And it shall be unto them as a falseH7723 divinationH7080 in their sightH5869, to them that have swornH7650 oathsH7621: but he will call to remembranceH2142 the iniquityH5771, that they may be takenH8610. {to them…: or, for the oaths made unto them}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because ye have made your iniquityH5771 to be rememberedH2142, in that your transgressionsH6588 are discoveredH1540, so that in all your doingsH5949 your sinsH2403 do appearH7200; because, I say, that ye are come to remembranceH2142, ye shall be takenH8610 with the handH3709.
And thou, profaneH2491 wickedH7563 princeH5387 of IsraelH3478, whose dayH3117 is comeH935, whenH6256 iniquityH5771 shall have an endH7093,
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; RemoveH5493 the diademH4701, and take offH7311 the crownH5850: this shall not be the sameH2063: exaltH1361 him that is lowH8217, and abaseH8213 him that is highH1364.
I will overturnH5754, overturnH5754, overturnH5754, it: and it shall beH7760 no more, until he comeH935 whose rightH4941 it is; and I will giveH5414 it him. {I will overturn…: Heb. Perverted, perverted, perverted, will I make it}
And thou, sonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012 and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 concerning the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, and concerning their reproachH2781; even sayH559 thou, The swordH2719, the swordH2719 is drawnH6605: for the slaughterH2874 it is furbishedH4803, to consumeH398 because of the glitteringH1300:
Whiles they seeH2372 vanityH7723 unto thee, whiles they divineH7080 a lieH3577 unto thee, to bringH5414 thee upon the necksH6677 of them that are slainH2491, of the wickedH7563, whose dayH3117 is comeH935, whenH6256 their iniquityH5771 shall have an endH7093.
Shall I cause it to returnH7725 into his sheathH8593? I will judgeH8199 thee in the placeH4725 where thou wast createdH1254, in the landH776 of thy nativityH4351. {Shall…: or, Cause it to return}
And I will pour outH8210 mine indignationH2195 upon thee, I will blowH6315 against thee in the fireH784 of my wrathH5678, and deliverH5414 thee into the handH3027 of brutishH1197 menH582, and skilfulH2796 to destroyH4889. {brutish: or, burning}
Thou shalt be for fuelH402 to the fireH784; thy bloodH1818 shall be in the midstH8432 of the landH776; thou shalt be no more rememberedH2142: for I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 it.

SpeakH559 to ZerubbabelH2216, governorH6346 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, I will shakeH7493 the heavensH8064 and the earthH776;
Because it is a trialH974, and what if the sword contemnH3988 even the rodH7626? it shall be no more, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {Because…: or, When the trial hath been, what then? shall they not also belong to the despising rod?}
And I will overthrowH2015 the throneH3678 of kingdomsH4467, and I will destroyH8045 the strengthH2392 of the kingdomsH4467 of the heathenH1471; and I will overthrowH2015 the chariotsH4818, and those that rideH7392 in them; and the horsesH5483 and their ridersH7392 shall come downH3381, every oneH376 by the swordH2719 of his brotherH251.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will also takeH3947 of the highest branchH6788 of the highH7311 cedarH730, and will setH5414 it; I will crop offH6998 from the topH7218 of his young twigsH3127 a tender oneH7390, and will plantH8362 it upon an highH1364 mountainH2022 and eminentH8524:
WhoseG3739 voiceG5456 thenG5119 shookG4531 the earthG1093: butG1161 nowG3568 he hath promisedG1861, sayingG3004, YetG2089 once moreG530 IG1473 shakeG4579 notG3756 the earthG1093 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 heavenG3772.
In the mountainH2022 of the heightH4791 of IsraelH3478 will I plantH8362 it: and it shall bring forthH5375 boughsH6057, and bearH6213 fruitH6529, and be a goodlyH117 cedarH730: and under it shall dwellH7931 all fowlH6833 of every wingH3671; in the shadowH6738 of the branchesH1808 thereof shall they dwellH7931.
AndG1161 this word, YetG2089 once moreG530, signifiethG1213 the removingG3331 of those things that are shakenG4531, asG5613 of things that are madeG4160, thatG2443 those things which cannotG3361 be shakenG4531 may remainG3306. {are shaken: or, may be shaken}
And I will set upH6965 oneH259 shepherdH7462 over them, and he shall feedH7462 them, even my servantH5650 DavidH1732; he shall feedH7462 them, and he shall be their shepherdH7462.
And DavidH1732 my servantH5650 shall be kingH4428 over them; and they all shall have oneH259 shepherdH7462: they shall also walkH3212 in my judgmentsH4941, and observeH8104 my statutesH2708, and doH6213 them.
And they shall dwellH3427 in the landH776 that I have givenH5414 unto JacobH3290 my servantH5650, wherein your fathersH1 have dweltH3427; and they shall dwellH3427 therein, even they, and their childrenH1121, and their children'sH1121 childrenH1121 for everH5769: and my servantH5650 DavidH1732 shall be their princeH5387 forH5704 everH5769.
The sceptreH7626 shall not departH5493 from JudahH3063, nor a lawgiverH2710 from between his feetH7272, untilH3588 ShilohH7886 comeH935; and unto him shall the gatheringH3349 of the peopleH5971 be.
Out of JacobH3290 shall come he that shall have dominionH7287, and shall destroyH6 him that remainethH8300 of the cityH5892.
Yet have I setH5258 my kingH4428 upon my holyH6944 hillH2022 of ZionH6726. {set: Heb. anointed} {upon…: Heb. upon Zion, the hill of my holiness}
In his daysH3117 shall the righteousH6662 flourishH6524; and abundanceH7230 of peaceH7965 so long as the moonH3394 endureth. {so long…: Heb. till there be no moon}
He shall have dominionH7287 also from seaH3220 to seaH3220, and from the riverH5104 unto the endsH657 of the earthH776.
They that dwell in the wildernessH6728 shall bowH3766 beforeH6440 him; and his enemiesH341 shall lickH3897 the dustH6083.
The kingsH4428 of TarshishH8659 and of the islesH339 shall bringH7725 presentsH4503: the kingsH4428 of ShebaH7614 and SebaH5434 shall offerH7126 giftsH814.
For unto us a childH3206 is bornH3205, unto us a sonH1121 is givenH5414: and the governmentH4951 shall be upon his shoulderH7926: and his nameH8034 shall be calledH7121 WonderfulH6382, CounsellorH3289, The mightyH1368 GodH410, The everlastingH5703 FatherH1, The PrinceH8269 of PeaceH7965.
Of the increaseH4766 of his governmentH4951 and peaceH7965 there shall be no endH7093, upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, and upon his kingdomH4467, to orderH3559 it, and to establishH5582 it with judgmentH4941 and with justiceH6666 from henceforth even forH5704 everH5769. The zealH7068 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 will performH6213 this.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will raiseH6965 unto DavidH1732 a righteousH6662 BranchH6780, and a KingH4428 shall reignH4427 and prosperH7919, and shall executeH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666 in the earthH776.
In his daysH3117 JudahH3063 shall be savedH3467, and IsraelH3478 shall dwellH7931 safelyH983: and this is his nameH8034 whereby he shall be calledH7121, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESSH3072. {THE LORD…: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
And their noblesH117 shall be of themselves, and their governorH4910 shall proceedH3318 from the midstH7130 of them; and I will cause him to draw nearH7126, and he shall approachH5066 unto me: for who is this that engagedH6148 his heartH3820 to approachH5066 unto me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
In those daysH3117, and at that timeH6256, will I cause the BranchH6780 of righteousnessH6666 to grow upH6779 unto DavidH1732; and he shall executeH6213 judgmentH4941 and righteousnessH6666 in the landH776.
In those daysH3117 shall JudahH3063 be savedH3467, and JerusalemH3389 shall dwellH7931 safelyH983: and this is the name wherewith she shall be calledH7121, The LORD our righteousnessH3072. {The LORD…: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
Then may also my covenantH1285 be brokenH6565 with DavidH1732 my servantH5650, that he should not have a sonH1121 to reignH4427 upon his throneH3678; and with the LevitesH3881 the priestsH3548, my ministersH8334.
ThenH1571 will I cast awayH3988 the seedH2233 of JacobH3290, and DavidH1732 my servantH5650, so that I will not takeH3947 any of his seedH2233 to be rulersH4910 over the seedH2233 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3446, and JacobH3290: for I will cause their captivityH7622 to returnH7725+H7725, and have mercyH7355 on them.
And in the daysH3118 of theseH581 kingsH4430 shall the GodH426 of heavenH8065 set upH6966 a kingdomH4437, which shall neverH5957+H3809 be destroyedH2255: and the kingdomH4437 shall notH3809 be leftH7662 to otherH321 peopleH5972, but it shall break in piecesH1855 and consumeH5487 allH3606 theseH459 kingdomsH4437, and itH1932 shall standH6966 for everH5957. {the days: Cald. their days} {the kingdom: Cald the kingdom thereof}
KnowH3045 therefore and understandH7919, that from the going forthH4161 of the commandmentH1697 to restoreH7725 and to buildH1129 JerusalemH3389 unto the MessiahH4899 the PrinceH5057 shall be sevenH7651 weeksH7620, and threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 weeksH7620: the streetH7339 shall be builtH1129 againH7725, and the wallH2742, even in troublousH6695 timesH6256. {be built…: Heb. return and be built} {wall: or, breach, or, ditch} {troublous: Heb. strait of}
AfterwardH310 shall the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 returnH7725, and seekH1245 the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and DavidH1732 their kingH4428; and shall fearH6342 the LORDH3068 and his goodnessH2898 in the latterH319 daysH3117.
In that dayH3117 will I raise upH6965 the tabernacleH5521 of DavidH1732 that is fallenH5307, and close upH1443 the breachesH6556 thereof; and I will raise upH6965 his ruinsH2034, and I will buildH1129 it as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769: {close: Heb. hedge, or, wall}
That they may possessH3423 the remnantH7611 of EdomH123, and of all the heathenH1471, which are calledH7121 by my nameH8034, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 that doethH6213 this. {which…: Heb. upon whom my name is called}
But thou, BethlehemH1035 EphratahH672, though thou be littleH6810 among the thousandsH505 of JudahH3063, yet out of thee shall he come forthH3318 unto me that is to be rulerH4910 in IsraelH3478; whose goings forthH4163 have been from of oldH6924, from everlastingH3117+H5769. {everlasting: Heb. the days of eternity}
And I will shakeH7493 all nationsH1471, and the desireH2532 of all nationsH1471 shall comeH935: and I will fillH4390 this houseH1004 with gloryH3519, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
And speakH559 unto him, sayingH559, Thus speakethH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, sayingH559, Behold the manH376 whose nameH8034 is The BRANCHH6780; and he shall grow upH6779 out of his place, and he shall buildH1129 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068: {grow…: or, branch up from under him}
Even he shall buildH1129 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068; and he shall bearH5375 the gloryH1935, and shall sitH3427 and ruleH4910 upon his throneH3678; and he shall be a priestH3548 upon his throneH3678: and the counselH6098 of peaceH7965 shall be between them bothH8147.
RejoiceH1523 greatlyH3966, O daughterH1323 of ZionH6726; shoutH7321, O daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389: behold, thy KingH4428 comethH935 unto thee: he is justH6662, and having salvationH3467; lowlyH6041, and ridingH7392 upon an assH2543, and upon a coltH5895 the foalH1121 of an assH860. {having…: or, saving himself}
Behold, I will sendH7971 my messengerH4397, and he shall prepareH6437 the wayH1870 beforeH6440 me: and the LordH113, whom ye seekH1245, shall suddenlyH6597 comeH935 to his templeH1964, even the messengerH4397 of the covenantH1285, whom ye delightH2655 in: behold, he shall comeH935, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
But unto you that fearH3373 my nameH8034 shall the SunH8121 of righteousnessH6666 ariseH2224 with healingH4832 in his wingsH3671; and ye shall go forthH3318, and grow upH6335 as calvesH5695 of the stallH4770.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 cameG4334 and spakeG2980 unto themG846, sayingG3004, AllG3956 powerG1849 is givenG1325 unto meG3427 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 inG1909 earthG1093.
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 hath raised upG1453 an hornG2768 of salvationG4991 for usG2254 inG1722 the houseG3624 of hisG846 servantG3816 DavidG1138;
ForG3754 unto youG5213 is bornG5088 this dayG4594 inG1722 the cityG4172 of DavidG1138 a SaviourG4990, whichG3739 isG2076 ChristG5547 the LordG2962.
That wasG2258 the trueG228 LightG5457, whichG3739 lightethG5461 every manG3956+G444 that comethG2064 intoG1519 the worldG2889.
WhichG3739 he wroughtG1754 inG1722 ChristG5547, when he raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 setG2523 him atG1722 his ownG846 right handG1188 inG1722 the heavenlyG2032 places,
Far aboveG5231 allG3956 principalityG746, andG2532 powerG1849, andG2532 mightG1411, andG2532 dominionG2963, andG2532 everyG3956 nameG3686 that is namedG3687, notG3756 onlyG3440 inG1722 thisG5129 worldG165, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 that which is to comeG3195:
AndG2532 hath putG5293 allG3956 things underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 to be the headG2776 overG5228 allG3956 things to the churchG1577,
WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 hath highly exaltedG5251 himG846, andG2532 givenG5483 himG846 a nameG3686 whichG3588 is aboveG5228 everyG3956 nameG3686:
ThatG2443 atG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 everyG3956 kneeG1119 should bowG2578, of things in heavenG2032, andG2532 things in earthG1919, andG2532 things under the earthG2709;
WhoG3739 is goneG4198 intoG1519 heavenG3772, and isG2076 onG1722 the right handG1188 of GodG2316; angelsG32 andG2532 authoritiesG1849 andG2532 powersG1411 being made subjectG5293 unto himG846.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 heavenG3772 openedG455, andG2532 beholdG2400 a whiteG3022 horseG2462; andG2532 he that satG2521 uponG1909 himG846 was calledG2564 FaithfulG4103 andG2532 TrueG228, andG2532 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 he doth judgeG2919 andG2532 make warG4170.
HisG846 eyesG3788 were asG5613 a flameG5395 of fireG4442, andG2532 onG1909 hisG846 headG2776 were manyG4183 crownsG1238; and he hadG2192 a nameG3686 writtenG1125, thatG3739 no manG3762 knewG1492, butG1508 he himselfG846.
AndG2532 he was clothedG4016 with a vestureG2440 dippedG911 in bloodG129: andG2532 hisG846 nameG3686 is calledG2564 The WordG3056 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 the armiesG4753 which wereG3588 inG1722 heavenG3772 followedG190 himG846 uponG1909 whiteG3022 horsesG2462, clothedG1746 in fine linenG1039, whiteG3022 andG2532 cleanG2513.
AndG2532 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750 goethG1607 a sharpG3691 swordG4501, thatG2443 withG1722 itG846 he should smiteG3960 the nationsG1484: andG2532 heG846 shall ruleG4165 themG846 withG1722 a rodG4464 of ironG4603: andG2532 heG846 treadethG3961 the winepressG3025+G3631 of the fiercenessG2372 andG2532 wrathG3709 of AlmightyG3841 GodG2316.
AndG2532 he hathG2192 onG1909 his vestureG2440 andG2532 onG1909 hisG846 thighG3382 a nameG3686 writtenG1125, KINGG935 OF KINGSG935, ANDG2532 LORDG2962 OF LORDSG2962.
