And it came to pass in the twelfthH8147+H6240 yearH8141, in the twelfth monthH2320, in the firstH259 day of the monthH2320, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, take upH5375 a lamentationH7015 for PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and sayH559 unto him, Thou art likeH1819 a young lionH3715 of the nationsH1471, and thou art as a whaleH8577+H8565 in the seasH3220: and thou camest forthH1518 with thy riversH5104, and troubledstH1804 the watersH4325 with thy feetH7272, and fouledstH7515 their riversH5104. {whale: or, dragon}
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will therefore spread outH6566 my netH7568 over thee with a companyH6951 of manyH7227 peopleH5971; and they shall bring thee upH5927 in my netH2764.
Then will I leaveH5203 thee upon the landH776, I will cast thee forthH2904 upon the openH6440 fieldH7704, and will cause all the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064 to remainH7931 upon thee, and I will fillH7646 the beastsH2416 of the whole earthH776 with thee.
And I will layH5414 thy fleshH1320 upon the mountainsH2022, and fillH4390 the valleysH1516 with thy heightH7419.
I will also waterH8248 with thy bloodH1818 the landH776 wherein thou swimmestH6824, even to the mountainsH2022; and the riversH650 shall be fullH4390 of thee. {the land wherein…: or, the land of thy swimming}
And when I shall put thee outH3518, I will coverH3680 the heavenH8064, and makeH6937 the starsH3556 thereof darkH6937; I will coverH3680 the sunH8121 with a cloudH6051, and the moonH3394 shall not giveH215 her lightH216. {put…: or, extinguish thee}
All the brightH3974 lightsH216 of heavenH8064 will I make darkH6937 over thee, and setH5414 darknessH2822 upon thy landH776, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {bright…: Heb. lights of the light in heaven} {dark: Heb. them dark}
I will also vexH3707 the heartsH3820 of manyH7227 peopleH5971, when I shall bringH935 thy destructionH7667 among the nationsH1471, into the countriesH776 which thou hast not knownH3045. {vex: Heb. provoke to anger, or, grief}
Yea, I will make manyH7227 peopleH5971 amazedH8074 at thee, and their kingsH4428 shall be horriblyH8178 afraidH8175 for thee, when I shall brandishH5774 my swordH2719 before themH6440; and they shall trembleH2729 at every momentH7281, every manH376 for his own lifeH5315, in the dayH3117 of thy fallH4658.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; The swordH2719 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 shall comeH935 upon thee.
By the swordsH2719 of the mightyH1368 will I cause thy multitudeH1995 to fallH5307, the terribleH6184 of the nationsH1471, all of them: and they shall spoilH7703 the pompH1347 of EgyptH4714, and all the multitudeH1995 thereof shall be destroyedH8045.
I will destroyH6 also all the beastsH929 thereof fromH5921 beside the greatH7227 watersH4325; neither shall the footH7272 of manH120 troubleH1804 them any more, nor the hoofsH6541 of beastsH929 troubleH1804 them.
Then will I make their watersH4325 deepH8257, and cause their riversH5104 to runH3212 like oilH8081, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
When I shall makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 desolateH8077, and the countryH776 shall be destituteH8074 of that whereof it was fullH4393, when I shall smiteH5221 all them that dwellH3427 therein, then shall they knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. {destitute…: Heb. desolate from the fulness thereof}
This is the lamentationH7015 wherewith they shall lamentH6969 her: the daughtersH1323 of the nationsH1471 shall lamentH6969 her: they shall lamentH6969 for her, even for EgyptH4714, and for all her multitudeH1995, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
It came to pass also in the twelfthH8147+H6240 yearH8141, in the fifteenthH2568+H6240 day of the monthH2320, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, wailH5091 for the multitudeH1995 of EgyptH4714, and cast them downH3381, even her, and the daughtersH1323 of the famousH117 nationsH1471, unto the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776, with them that go downH3381 into the pitH953.
Whom dost thou pass in beautyH5276? go downH3381, and be thou laidH7901 with the uncircumcisedH6189.
They shall fallH5307 in the midstH8432 of them that are slainH2491 by the swordH2719: she is deliveredH5414 to the swordH2719: drawH4900 her and all her multitudesH1995. {she…: or, the sword is laid}
The strongH410 among the mightyH1368 shall speakH1696 to him out of the midstH8432 of hellH7585 with them that helpH5826 him: they are gone downH3381, they lieH7901 uncircumcisedH6189, slainH2491 by the swordH2719.
AsshurH804 is there and all her companyH6951: his gravesH6913 are aboutH5439 him: all of them slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719:
Whose gravesH6913 are setH5414 in the sidesH3411 of the pitH953, and her companyH6951 is round aboutH5439 her graveH6900: all of them slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, which causedH5414 terrorH2851 in the landH776 of the livingH2416. {terror: or, dismaying}
There is ElamH5867 and all her multitudeH1995 round aboutH5439 her graveH6900, all of them slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, which are gone downH3381 uncircumcisedH6189 into the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776, which causedH5414 their terrorH2851 in the landH776 of the livingH2416; yet have they borneH5375 their shameH3639 with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953.
They have setH5414 her a bedH4904 in the midstH8432 of the slainH2491 with all her multitudeH1995: her gravesH6913 are round aboutH5439 him: all of them uncircumcisedH6189, slainH2491 by the swordH2719: though their terrorH2851 was causedH5414 in the landH776 of the livingH2416, yet have they borneH5375 their shameH3639 with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953: he is putH5414 in the midstH8432 of them that be slainH2491.
There is MeshechH4902, TubalH8422, and all her multitudeH1995: her gravesH6913 are round aboutH5439 him: all of them uncircumcisedH6189, slainH2490 by the swordH2719, though they causedH5414 their terrorH2851 in the landH776 of the livingH2416.
And they shall not lieH7901 with the mightyH1368 that are fallenH5307 of the uncircumcisedH6189, which are gone downH3381 to hellH7585 with their weaponsH3627 of warH4421: and they have laidH5414 their swordsH2719 under their headsH7218, but their iniquitiesH5771 shall be upon their bonesH6106, though they were the terrorH2851 of the mightyH1368 in the landH776 of the livingH2416. {with their…: Heb. with weapons of their war}
Yea, thou shalt be brokenH7665 in the midstH8432 of the uncircumcisedH6189, and shalt lieH7901 with them that are slainH2491 with the swordH2719.
There is EdomH123, her kingsH4428, and all her princesH5387, which with their mightH1369 are laidH5414 by them that were slainH2491 by the swordH2719: they shall lieH7901 with the uncircumcisedH6189, and with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953. {laid: Heb. given, or, put}
There be the princesH5257 of the northH6828, all of them, and all the ZidoniansH6722, which are gone downH3381 with the slainH2491; with their terrorH2851 they are ashamedH954 of their mightH1369; and they lieH7901 uncircumcisedH6189 with them that be slainH2491 by the swordH2719, and bearH5375 their shameH3639 with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953.
PharaohH6547 shall seeH7200 them, and shall be comfortedH5162 over all his multitudeH1995, even PharaohH6547 and all his armyH2428 slainH2491 by the swordH2719, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
For I have causedH5414 my terrorH2851 in the landH776 of the livingH2416: and he shall be laidH7901 in the midstH8432 of the uncircumcisedH6189 with them that are slainH2491 with the swordH2719, even PharaohH6547 and all his multitudeH1995, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.

The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, and prophesyH5012 against them;
And sayH559 unto the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH136 GODH3069; Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou saidstH559, AhaH1889, against my sanctuaryH4720, when it was profanedH2490; and against the landH127 of IsraelH3478, when it was desolateH8074; and against the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, when they wentH1980 into captivityH1473;
Behold, therefore I will deliverH5414 thee to the menH1121 of the eastH6924 for a possessionH4181, and they shall setH3427 their palacesH2918 in thee, and makeH5414 their dwellingsH4908 in thee: they shall eatH398 thy fruitH6529, and they shall drinkH8354 thy milkH2461. {men: Heb. children}
And I will makeH5414 RabbahH7237 a stableH5116 for camelsH1581, and the AmmonitesH1121+H5983 a couchingplaceH4769 for flocksH6629: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou hast clappedH4222 thine handsH3027, and stampedH7554 with the feetH7272, and rejoicedH8055 in heartH5315 with all thy despiteH7589 against the landH127 of IsraelH3478; {hands: Heb. hand} {feet: Heb. foot} {heart: Heb. soul}
Behold, therefore I will stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon thee, and will deliverH5414 thee for a spoilH957+H897 to the heathenH1471; and I will cut thee offH3772 from the peopleH5971, and I will cause thee to perishH6 out of the countriesH776: I will destroyH8045 thee; and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. {a spoil: or, meat}
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; BecauseH3282 that MoabH4124 and SeirH8165 do sayH559, Behold, the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 is like unto all the heathenH1471;
Therefore, behold, I will openH6605 the sideH3802 of MoabH4124 from the citiesH5892, from his citiesH5892 which are on his frontiersH7097, the gloryH6643 of the countryH776, BethjeshimothH1020, BaalmeonH1186, and KiriathaimH7156, {side…: Heb. shoulder of Moab}
Unto the menH1121 of the eastH6924 with the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, and will giveH5414 them in possessionH4181, that the AmmonitesH1121+H5983 may not be rememberedH2142 among the nationsH1471. {with…: or, against the children of Ammon}
And I will executeH6213 judgmentsH8201 upon MoabH4124; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because that EdomH123 hath dealtH6213 against the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 by takingH5358 vengeanceH5359, and hath greatlyH816 offendedH816, and revengedH5358 himself upon them; {by…: Heb. by revenging revengement}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will also stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon EdomH123, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it; and I will makeH5414 it desolateH2723 from TemanH8487; and they of DedanH1719 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719. {they…: or, they shall fall by the sword unto Dedan}
And I will layH5414 my vengeanceH5360 upon EdomH123 by the handH3027 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478: and they shall doH6213 in EdomH123 according to mine angerH639 and according to my furyH2534; and they shall knowH3045 my vengeanceH5360, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because the PhilistinesH6430 have dealtH6213 by revengeH5360, and have takenH5358 vengeanceH5359 with a despitefulH7589 heartH5315, to destroyH4889 it for the oldH5769 hatredH342; {for the…: or, with perpetual hatred}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon the PhilistinesH6430, and I will cut offH3772 the CherethimsH3774, and destroyH6 the remnantH7611 of the seaH3220 coastH2348. {sea coast: or, haven of the sea}
And I will executeH6213 greatH1419 vengeanceH5360 upon them with furiousH2534 rebukesH8433; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I shall layH5414 my vengeanceH5360 upon them. {great vengeance: Heb. great vengeances}
Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against mountH2022 SeirH8165, and prophesyH5012 against it,
And sayH559 unto it, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, O mountH2022 SeirH8165, I am against thee, and I will stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 against thee, and I will makeH5414 thee mostH4923 desolateH8077. {most…: Heb. desolation and desolation}
I will layH7760 thy citiesH5892 wasteH2723, and thou shalt be desolateH8077, and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Because thou hast had a perpetualH5769 hatredH342, and hast shedH5064 the blood of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 by the forceH3027 of the swordH2719 in the timeH6256 of their calamityH343, in the timeH6256 that their iniquityH5771 had an endH7093: {perpetual…: or, hatred of old} {shed…: Heb. poured out the children} {force: Heb. hands}
Therefore, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will prepareH6213 thee unto bloodH1818, and bloodH1818 shall pursueH7291 thee: sithH518 thou hast not hatedH8130 bloodH1818, even bloodH1818 shall pursueH7291 thee.
Thus will I makeH5414 mountH2022 SeirH8165 mostH8077 desolateH8077, and cut offH3772 from it him that passeth outH5674 and him that returnethH7725. {most…: Heb. desolation and desolation}
And I will fillH4390 his mountainsH2022 with his slainH2491 men: in thy hillsH1389, and in thy valleysH1516, and in all thy riversH650, shall they fallH5307 that are slainH2491 with the swordH2719.
I will makeH5414 thee perpetualH5769 desolationsH8077, and thy citiesH5892 shall not returnH7725+H3427: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Because thou hast saidH559, These twoH8147 nationsH1471 and these twoH8147 countriesH776 shall be mine, and we will possessH3423 it; whereas the LORDH3068 was there: {whereas…: or, though the LORD was there}
Therefore, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I will even doH6213 according to thine angerH639, and according to thine envyH7068 which thou hast usedH6213 out of thy hatredH8135 against them; and I will make myself knownH3045 among them, when I have judgedH8199 thee.
And thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, and that I have heardH8085 all thy blasphemiesH5007 which thou hast spokenH559 against the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, They are laid desolateH8074+H8077, they are givenH5414 us to consumeH402. {to consume: Heb. to devour}
Thus with your mouthH6310 ye have boastedH1431 against me, and have multipliedH6280 your wordsH1697 against me: I have heardH8085 them. {boasted: Heb. magnified}
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; When the whole earthH776 rejoicethH8055, I will makeH6213 thee desolateH8077.
As thou didst rejoiceH8057 at the inheritanceH5159 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, because it was desolateH8074, so will I doH6213 unto thee: thou shalt be desolateH8077, O mountH2022 SeirH8165, and all IdumeaH123, even all of it: and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
And EsauH6215 saidH559 to JacobH3290, FeedH3938 me, I pray thee, withH4480 that sameH122 redH122 pottage; for I am faintH5889: therefore was his nameH8034 calledH7121 EdomH123. {with…: Heb. with that red, with that red pottage} {Edom: that is Red}
Now these are the generationsH8435 of EsauH6215, who is EdomH123.
EsauH6215 tookH3947 his wivesH802 of the daughtersH1323 of CanaanH3667; AdahH5711 the daughterH1323 of ElonH356 the HittiteH2850, and AholibamahH173 the daughterH1323 of AnahH6034 the daughterH1323 of ZibeonH6649 the HiviteH2340;
And BashemathH1315 Ishmael'sH3458 daughterH1323, sisterH269 of NebajothH5032.
And AdahH5711 bareH3205 to EsauH6215 EliphazH464; and BashemathH1315 bareH3205 ReuelH7467;
And AholibamahH173 bareH3205 JeushH3274, and JaalamH3281, and KorahH7141: these are the sonsH1121 of EsauH6215, which were bornH3205 unto him in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.
And EsauH6215 tookH3947 his wivesH802, and his sonsH1121, and his daughtersH1323, and all the personsH5315 of his houseH1004, and his cattleH4735, and all his beastsH929, and all his substanceH7075, which he had gotH7408 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and wentH3212 into the countryH776 from the faceH6440 of his brotherH251 JacobH3290. {persons: Heb. souls}
For their richesH7399 were moreH7227 than that they might dwellH3427 togetherH3162; and the landH776 wherein they were strangersH4033 couldH3201 not bearH5375 them becauseH6440 of their cattleH4735.
Thus dweltH3427 EsauH6215 in mountH2022 SeirH8165: EsauH6215 is EdomH123.
And these are the generationsH8435 of EsauH6215 the fatherH1 of the EdomitesH123 in mountH2022 SeirH8165: {the Edomites: Heb. Edom}
These are the namesH8034 of Esau'sH6215 sonsH1121; EliphazH464 the sonH1121 of AdahH5711 the wifeH802 of EsauH6215, ReuelH7467 the sonH1121 of BashemathH1315 the wifeH802 of EsauH6215.
And the sonsH1121 of EliphazH464 were TemanH8487, OmarH201, ZephoH6825, and GatamH1609, and KenazH7073. {Zepho: or, Zephi}
And TimnaH8555 was concubineH6370 to EliphazH464 Esau'sH6215 sonH1121; and she bareH3205 to EliphazH464 AmalekH6002: these were the sonsH1121 of AdahH5711 Esau'sH6215 wifeH802.
And these are the sonsH1121 of ReuelH7467; NahathH5184, and ZerahH2226, ShammahH8048, and MizzahH4199: these were the sonsH1121 of BashemathH1315 Esau'sH6215 wifeH802.
And these were the sonsH1121 of AholibamahH173, the daughterH1323 of AnahH6034 the daughterH1323 of ZibeonH6649, Esau'sH6215 wifeH802: and she bareH3205 to EsauH6215 JeushH3274, and JaalamH3281, and KorahH7141.
These were dukesH441 of the sonsH1121 of EsauH6215: the sonsH1121 of EliphazH464 the firstbornH1060 son of EsauH6215; dukeH441 TemanH8487, dukeH441 OmarH201, dukeH441 ZephoH6825, dukeH441 KenazH7073,
DukeH441 KorahH7141, dukeH441 GatamH1609, and dukeH441 AmalekH6002: these are the dukesH441 that came of EliphazH464 in the landH776 of EdomH123; these were the sonsH1121 of AdahH5711.
And these are the sonsH1121 of ReuelH7467 Esau'sH6215 sonH1121; dukeH441 NahathH5184, dukeH441 ZerahH2226, dukeH441 ShammahH8048, dukeH441 MizzahH4199: these are the dukesH441 that came of ReuelH7467 in the landH776 of EdomH123; these are the sonsH1121 of BashemathH1315 Esau'sH6215 wifeH802.
And these are the sonsH1121 of AholibamahH173 Esau'sH6215 wifeH802; dukeH441 JeushH3266, dukeH441 JaalamH3281, dukeH441 KorahH7141: these were the dukesH441 that came of AholibamahH173 the daughterH1323 of AnahH6034, Esau'sH6215 wifeH802.
These are the sonsH1121 of EsauH6215, who is EdomH123, and these are their dukesH441.
Come nearH7126, ye nationsH1471, to hearH8085; and hearkenH7181, ye peopleH3816: let the earthH776 hearH8085, and all that is thereinH4393; the worldH8398, and all things that come forthH6631 of it. {all that…: Heb. the fulness thereof}
For the indignationH7110 of the LORDH3068 is upon all nationsH1471, and his furyH2534 upon all their armiesH6635: he hath utterly destroyedH2763 them, he hath deliveredH5414 them to the slaughterH2874.
Their slainH2491 also shall be cast outH7993, and their stinkH889 shall come upH5927 out of their carcasesH6297, and the mountainsH2022 shall be meltedH4549 with their bloodH1818.
And all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 shall be dissolvedH4743, and the heavensH8064 shall be rolled togetherH1556 as a scrollH5612: and all their hostH6635 shall fall downH5034, as the leafH5929 falleth offH5034 from the vineH1612, and as a fallingH5034 fig from the fig treeH8384.
For my swordH2719 shall be bathedH7301 in heavenH8064: behold, it shall come downH3381 upon IdumeaH123, and upon the peopleH5971 of my curseH2764, to judgmentH4941.
The swordH2719 of the LORDH3068 is filledH4390 with bloodH1818, it is made fatH1878 with fatnessH2459, and with the bloodH1818 of lambsH3733 and goatsH6260, with the fatH2459 of the kidneysH3629 of ramsH352: for the LORDH3068 hath a sacrificeH2077 in BozrahH1224, and a greatH1419 slaughterH2874 in the landH776 of IdumeaH123.
And the unicornsH7214 shall come downH3381 with them, and the bullocksH6499 with the bullsH47; and their landH776 shall be soakedH7301 with bloodH1818, and their dustH6083 made fatH1878 with fatnessH2459. {unicorns: or, rhinocerots} {soaked: or, drunken}
For it is the dayH3117 of the LORD'SH3068 vengeanceH5359, and the yearH8141 of recompencesH7966 for the controversyH7379 of ZionH6726.
And the streamsH5158 thereof shall be turnedH2015 into pitchH2203, and the dustH6083 thereof into brimstoneH1614, and the landH776 thereof shall become burningH1197 pitchH2203.
It shall not be quenchedH3518 nightH3915 nor dayH3119; the smokeH6227 thereof shall go upH5927 for everH5769: from generationH1755 to generationH1755 it shall lie wasteH2717; none shall pass throughH5674 it for everH5331 and everH5331.
But the cormorantH6893 and the bitternH7090 shall possessH3423 it; the owlH3244 also and the ravenH6158 shall dwellH7931 in it: and he shall stretch outH5186 upon it the lineH6957 of confusionH8414, and the stonesH68 of emptinessH922. {cormorant: or, pelican}
They shall callH7121 the noblesH2715 thereof to the kingdomH4410, but none shall be there, and all her princesH8269 shall be nothingH657.
And thornsH5518 shall come upH5927 in her palacesH759, nettlesH7057 and bramblesH2336 in the fortressesH4013 thereof: and it shall be an habitationH5116 of dragonsH8577, and a courtH2681 for owlsH1323+H3284. {owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
The wild beasts of the desertH6728 shall also meetH6298 with the wild beasts of the islandH338, and the satyrH8163 shall cryH7121 to his fellowH7453; the screech owlH3917 also shall restH7280 there, and findH4672 for herself a place of restH4494. {The wild…desert: Heb. Ziim} {the wild…island: Heb. Ijim} {screech…: or, night monster}
There shall the great owlH7091 make her nestH7077, and layH4422, and hatchH1234, and gatherH1716 under her shadowH6738: there shall the vulturesH1772 also be gatheredH6908, every oneH802 with her mateH7468.
Seek ye outH1875 of the bookH5612 of the LORDH3068, and readH7121: no oneH259 of theseH2007 shall failH5737, noneH802 shall wantH6485 her mateH7468: for my mouthH6310 it hath commandedH6680, and his spiritH7307 it hath gatheredH6908 them.
And he hath castH5307 the lotH1486 for them, and his handH3027 hath dividedH2505 it unto them by lineH6957: they shall possessH3423 it forH5704 everH5769, from generationH1755 to generationH1755 shall they dwellH7931 therein.
Who is this that comethH935 from EdomH123, with dyedH2556 garmentsH899 from BozrahH1224? this that is gloriousH1921 in his apparelH3830, travellingH6808 in the greatnessH7230 of his strengthH3581? I that speakH1696 in righteousnessH6666, mightyH7227 to saveH3467. {glorious: Heb. decked}
Wherefore art thou redH122 in thine apparelH3830, and thy garmentsH899 like him that treadethH1869 in the winefatH1660?
I have troddenH1869 the winepressH6333 alone; and of the peopleH5971 there was noneH376 with me: for I will treadH1869 them in mine angerH639, and trampleH7429 them in my furyH2534; and their bloodH5332 shall be sprinkledH5137 upon my garmentsH899, and I will stainH1351 all my raimentH4403.
For the dayH3117 of vengeanceH5359 is in mine heartH3820, and the yearH8141 of my redeemedH1350 is comeH935.
And I lookedH5027, and there was none to helpH5826; and I wonderedH8074 that there was none to upholdH5564: therefore mine own armH2220 brought salvationH3467 unto me; and my furyH2534, it upheldH5564 me.
And I will tread downH947 the peopleH5971 in mine angerH639, and make them drunkH7937 in my furyH2534, and I will bring downH3381 their strengthH5332 to the earthH776.
Concerning EdomH123, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Is wisdomH2451 no more in TemanH8487? is counselH6098 perishedH6 from the prudentH995? is their wisdomH2451 vanishedH5628?
FleeH5127 ye, turn backH6437, dwellH3427 deepH6009, O inhabitantsH3427 of DedanH1719; for I will bringH935 the calamityH343 of EsauH6215 upon him, the timeH6256 that I will visitH6485 him. {turn…: or, they are turned back}
If grapegatherersH1219 comeH935 to thee, would they not leaveH7604 some gleaning grapesH5955? if thievesH1590 by nightH3915, they will destroyH7843 till they have enoughH1767. {till…: Heb. their sufficiency}
But I have made EsauH6215 bareH2834, I have uncoveredH1540 his secret placesH4565, and he shall not be ableH3201 to hideH2247 himself: his seedH2233 is spoiledH7703, and his brethrenH251, and his neighboursH7934, and he is not.
LeaveH5800 thy fatherless childrenH3490, I will preserve them aliveH2421; and let thy widowsH490 trustH982 in me.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, they whose judgmentH4941 was not to drinkH8354 of the cupH3563 have assuredlyH8354 drunkenH8354; and art thou he that shall altogetherH5352 go unpunishedH5352? thou shalt not go unpunishedH5352, but thou shalt surelyH8354 drinkH8354 of it.
For I have swornH7650 by myself, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that BozrahH1224 shall become a desolationH8047, a reproachH2781, a wasteH2721, and a curseH7045; and all the citiesH5892 thereof shall be perpetualH5769 wastesH2723.
I have heardH8085 a rumourH8052 from the LORDH3068, and an ambassadorH6735 is sentH7971 unto the heathenH1471, saying, Gather ye togetherH6908, and comeH935 against her, and rise upH6965 to the battleH4421.
For, lo, I will makeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the heathenH1471, and despisedH959 among menH120.
Thy terriblenessH8606 hath deceivedH5377 thee, and the prideH2087 of thine heartH3820, O thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, that holdestH8610 the heightH4791 of the hillH1389: though thou shouldest make thy nestH7064 as highH1361 as the eagleH5404, I will bring thee downH3381 from thence, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Also EdomH123 shall be a desolationH8047: every one that goethH5674 by it shall be astonishedH8074, and shall hissH8319 at all the plaguesH4347 thereof.
As in the overthrowH4114 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and the neighbourH7934 cities thereof, saithH559 the LORDH3068, no manH376 shall abideH3427 there, neither shall a sonH1121 of manH120 dwellH1481 in it.
Behold, he shall come upH5927 like a lionH738 from the swellingH1347 of JordanH3383 against the habitationH5116 of the strongH386: but I will suddenlyH7280 make him run awayH7323 from her: and who is a chosenH977 man, that I may appointH6485 over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the timeH3259? and who is that shepherdH7462 that will standH5975 beforeH6440 me? {appoint me…: or, convent me in judgment?}
Therefore hearH8085 the counselH6098 of the LORDH3068, that he hath takenH3289 against EdomH123; and his purposesH4284, that he hath purposedH2803 against the inhabitantsH3427 of TemanH8487: Surely the leastH6810 of the flockH6629 shall draw them outH5498: surely he shall make their habitationsH5116 desolateH8074 with them.
The earthH776 is movedH7493 at the noiseH6963 of their fallH5307, at the cryH6818 the noiseH6963 thereof was heardH8085 in the RedH5488 seaH3220. {Red sea: Heb. Weedy sea}
Behold, he shall come upH5927 and flyH1675 as the eagleH5404, and spreadH6566 his wingsH3671 over BozrahH1224: and at that dayH3117 shall the heartH3820 of the mighty menH1368 of EdomH123 be as the heartH3820 of a womanH802 in her pangsH6887.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of EdomH123, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because he did pursueH7291 his brotherH251 with the swordH2719, and did cast offH7843 all pityH7356, and his angerH639 did tearH2963 perpetuallyH5703, and he keptH8104 his wrathH5678 for everH5331: {did cast…: Heb. corrupted his compassions}
But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 upon TemanH8487, which shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of BozrahH1224.
The visionH2377 of ObadiahH5662. Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 concerning EdomH123; We have heardH8085 a rumourH8052 from the LORDH3068, and an ambassadorH6735 is sentH7971 among the heathenH1471, AriseH6965 ye, and let us rise upH6965 against her in battleH4421.
Behold, I have madeH5414 thee smallH6996 among the heathenH1471: thou art greatlyH3966 despisedH959.
The prideH2087 of thine heartH3820 hath deceivedH5377 thee, thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whose habitationH3427 is highH4791; that saithH559 in his heartH3820, Who shall bring me downH3381 to the groundH776?
Though thou exaltH1361 thyself as the eagleH5404, and though thou setH7760 thy nestH7064 among the starsH3556, thence will I bring thee downH3381, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
If thievesH1590 cameH935 to thee, if robbersH7703 by nightH3915, (how art thou cut offH1820!) would they not have stolenH1589 till they had enoughH1767? if the grapegatherersH1219 cameH935 to thee, would they not leaveH7604 some grapesH5955? {some…: or, gleanings?}
How are the things of EsauH6215 searched outH2664! how are his hiddenH4710 things sought upH1158!
All the menH582 of thy confederacyH1285 have broughtH7971 thee even to the borderH1366: the menH582 that were at peaceH7965 with thee have deceivedH5377 thee, and prevailedH3201 against thee; they that eat thy breadH3899 have laidH7760 a woundH4204 under thee: there is none understandingH8394 in him. {that were…: Heb. of thy peace} {they…: Heb. the men of thy bread} {in him: or, of it}
Shall I not in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, even destroyH6 the wiseH2450 men out of EdomH123, and understandingH8394 out of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215?
And thy mightyH1368 men, O TemanH8487, shall be dismayedH2865, to the end that every oneH376 of the mountH2022 of EsauH6215 may be cut offH3772 by slaughterH6993.
And I hatedH8130 EsauH6215, and laidH7760 his mountainsH2022 and his heritageH5159 wasteH8077 for the dragonsH8568 of the wildernessH4057.
Whereas EdomH123 saithH559, We are impoverishedH7567, but we will returnH7725 and buildH1129 the desolate placesH2723; thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, They shall buildH1129, but I will throw downH2040; and they shall callH7121 them, The borderH1366 of wickednessH7564, and, The peopleH5971 against whom the LORDH3068 hath indignationH2194 forH5704 everH5769.
