When I would have healedH7495 IsraelH3478, then the iniquityH5771 of EphraimH669 was discoveredH1540, and the wickednessH7451 of SamariaH8111: for they commitH6466 falsehoodH8267; and the thiefH1590 cometh inH935, and the troopH1416 of robbers spoilethH6584 withoutH2351. {wickedness: Heb. evils} {spoileth: Heb. strippeth}
And they considerH559 not in their heartsH3824 that I rememberH2142 all their wickednessH7451: now their own doingsH4611 have beset them aboutH5437; they are before my faceH6440. {consider…: Heb. say not to}
They make the kingH4428 gladH8055 with their wickednessH7451, and the princesH8269 with their liesH3585.
They are all adulterersH5003, as an ovenH8574 heatedH1197 by the bakerH644, who ceasethH7673 from raisingH5782 after he hath kneadedH3888 the doughH1217, until it be leavenedH2556. {who…: or, the raiser will cease} {raising: or, waking}
In the dayH3117 of our kingH4428 the princesH8269 have made him sickH2470 with bottlesH2534 of wineH3196; he stretched outH4900 his handH3027 with scornersH3945. {bottles…: or, heat through wine}
For they have made readyH7126 their heartH3820 like an ovenH8574, whiles they lie in waitH693: their bakerH644 sleepethH3463 all the nightH3915; in the morningH1242 it burnethH1197 as a flamingH3852 fireH784. {made…: or, applied}
They are all hotH2552 as an ovenH8574, and have devouredH398 their judgesH8199; all their kingsH4428 are fallenH5307: there is none among them that callethH7121 unto me.
EphraimH669, he hath mixedH1101 himself among the peopleH5971; EphraimH669 is a cakeH5692 not turnedH2015.
StrangersH2114 have devouredH398 his strengthH3581, and he knowethH3045 it not: yea, gray hairsH7872 are here and thereH2236 upon him, yet he knowethH3045 not. {here…: Heb. sprinkled}
And the prideH1347 of IsraelH3478 testifiethH6030 to his faceH6440: and they do not returnH7725 to the LORDH3068 their GodH430, nor seekH1245 him for all this.
EphraimH669 also is like a sillyH6601 doveH3123 without heartH3820: they callH7121 to EgyptH4714, they goH1980 to AssyriaH804.
When they shall goH3212, I will spreadH6566 my netH7568 upon them; I will bring them downH3381 as the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064; I will chastiseH3256 them, as their congregationH5712 hath heardH8088.
WoeH188 unto them! for they have fledH5074 from me: destructionH7701 unto them! because they have transgressedH6586 against me: though I have redeemedH6299 them, yet they have spokenH1696 liesH3577 against me. {destruction: Heb. spoil}
And they have not criedH2199 unto me with their heartH3820, when they howledH3213 upon their bedsH4904: they assembleH1481 themselves for cornH1715 and wineH8492, and they rebelH5493 against me.
Though I have boundH3256 and strengthenedH2388 their armsH2220, yet do they imagineH2803 mischiefH7451 against me. {have…: or, chastened}
They returnH7725, but not to the most HighH5920: they are like a deceitfulH7423 bowH7198: their princesH8269 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719 for the rageH2195 of their tongueH3956: thisH2097 shall be their derisionH3933 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Querverweise zu Hosea 7,12 Hos 7,12
KnowH3045 nowH645 that GodH433 hath overthrownH5791 me, and hath compassedH5362 me with his netH4686.
For manH120 also knowethH3045 not his timeH6256: as the fishesH1709 that are takenH270 in an evilH7451 netH4685, and as the birdsH6833 that are caughtH270 in the snareH6341; soH1992 are the sonsH1121 of menH120 snaredH3369 in an evilH7451 timeH6256, when it fallethH5307 suddenlyH6597 upon them.
Behold, I will sendH7971 for manyH7227 fishersH1771+H1728, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and they shall fishH1770 them; and afterH310 will I sendH7971 for manyH7227 huntersH6719, and they shall huntH6679 them from every mountainH2022, and from every hillH1389, and out of the holesH5357 of the rocksH5553.
But if ye will not hearkenH8085 unto me, and will not doH6213 all these commandmentsH4687;
And if ye shall despiseH3988 my statutesH2708, or if your soulH5315 abhorH1602 my judgmentsH4941, so that ye will not doH6213 all my commandmentsH4687, but that ye breakH6565 my covenantH1285:
I also will doH6213 this unto you; I will even appointH6485 over you terrorH928, consumptionH7829, and the burning agueH6920, that shall consumeH3615 the eyesH5869, and cause sorrowH1727 of heartH5315: and ye shall sowH2232 your seedH2233 in vainH7385, for your enemiesH341 shall eatH398 it. {over: Heb. upon}
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against you, and ye shall be slainH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341: they that hateH8130 you shall reignH7287 over you; and ye shall fleeH5127 when none pursuethH7291 you.
And if ye will not yetH5704 for all this hearkenH8085 unto me, then I will punishH3256 you seven timesH7651 moreH3254 for your sinsH2403.
And I will breakH7665 the prideH1347 of your powerH5797; and I will makeH5414 your heavenH8064 as ironH1270, and your earthH776 as brassH5154:
And your strengthH3581 shall be spentH8552 in vainH7385: for your landH776 shall not yieldH5414 her increaseH2981, neither shall the treesH6086 of the landH776 yieldH5414 their fruitsH6529.
And if ye walkH3212 contraryH7147 unto me, and willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto me; I will bringH3254 seven timesH7651 moreH3254 plaguesH4347 upon you according to your sinsH2403. {contrary…: or, at all adventures with me}
I will also sendH7971 wildH7704 beastsH2416 among you, which shall rob you of your childrenH7921, and destroyH3772 your cattleH929, and make you few in numberH4591; and your high waysH1870 shall be desolateH8074.
And if ye will not be reformedH3256 by me by these things, but will walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
Then will I also walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto you, and will punishH5221 you yetH1571 seven timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.
And I will bringH935 a swordH2719 upon you, that shall avengeH5358 the quarrelH5359 of my covenantH1285: and when ye are gathered togetherH622 withinH413 your citiesH5892, I will sendH7971 the pestilenceH1698 amongH8432 you; and ye shall be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the enemyH341.
And when I have brokenH7665 the staffH4294 of your breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 shall bakeH644 your breadH3899 in oneH259 ovenH8574, and they shall deliverH7725 you your breadH3899 againH7725 by weightH4948: and ye shall eatH398, and not be satisfiedH7646.
And if ye will not for all thisH2063 hearkenH8085 unto me, but walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
Then I will walkH1980 contraryH7147 unto you also in furyH2534; and I, evenH637 I, will chastiseH3256 you seven timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.
And ye shall eatH398 the fleshH1320 of your sonsH1121, and the fleshH1320 of your daughtersH1323 shall ye eatH398.
And I will destroyH8045 your high placesH1116, and cut downH3772 your imagesH2553, and castH5414 your carcasesH6297 upon the carcasesH6297 of your idolsH1544, and my soulH5315 shall abhorH1602 you.
And I will makeH5414 your citiesH5892 wasteH2723, and bringH8074 your sanctuariesH4720 unto desolationH8074, and I will not smellH7306 the savourH7381 of your sweet odoursH5207.
And I will bringH8074 the landH776 into desolationH8074: and your enemiesH341 which dwellH3427 therein shall be astonishedH8074 at it.
And I will scatterH2219 you among the heathenH1471, and will draw outH7324 a swordH2719 afterH310 you: and your landH776 shall be desolateH8077, and your citiesH5892 wasteH2723.
Then shall the landH776 enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676, as longH3117 as it lieth desolateH8074, and ye be in your enemies'H341 landH776; even then shall the landH776 restH7673, and enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676.
As long asH3117 it lieth desolateH8074 it shall restH7673; because it did not restH7673 in your sabbathsH7676, when ye dweltH3427 upon it.
And upon them that are leftH7604 alive of you I will sendH935 a faintnessH4816 into their heartsH3824 in the landsH776 of their enemiesH341; and the soundH6963 of a shakenH5086 leafH5929 shall chaseH7291 them; and they shall fleeH5127, as fleeingH4499 from a swordH2719; and they shall fallH5307 when none pursuethH7291. {shaken: Heb. driven}
And they shall fallH3782 oneH376 upon anotherH251, as it were beforeH6440 a swordH2719, when none pursuethH7291: and ye shall have no power to standH8617 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341.
And ye shall perishH6 among the heathenH1471, and the landH776 of your enemiesH341 shall eat you upH398.
And they that are leftH7604 of you shall pine awayH4743 in their iniquityH5771 in your enemies'H341 landsH776; and also in the iniquitiesH5771 of their fathersH1 shall they pine awayH4743 with them.
If they shall confessH3034 their iniquityH5771, and the iniquityH5771 of their fathersH1, with their trespassH4604 which they trespassedH4603 against me, and that also they have walkedH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
And that I also have walkedH3212 contraryH7147 unto them, and have broughtH935 them into the landH776 of their enemiesH341; if thenH176 their uncircumcisedH6189 heartsH3824 be humbledH3665, and they then acceptH7521 of the punishment of their iniquityH5771:
Then will I rememberH2142 my covenantH1285 with JacobH3290, and also my covenantH1285 with IsaacH3327, and also my covenantH1285 with AbrahamH85 will I rememberH2142; and I will rememberH2142 the landH776.
The landH776 also shall be leftH5800 of them, and shall enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676, while she lieth desolateH8074 without them: and they shall acceptH7521 of the punishment of their iniquityH5771: becauseH3282, even becauseH3282 they despisedH3988 my judgmentsH4941, and because their soulH5315 abhorredH1602 my statutesH2708.
And yetH637 for all thatH2063, when they beH1571 in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, I will not cast them awayH3988, neither will I abhorH1602 them, to destroy them utterlyH3615, and to breakH6565 my covenantH1285 with them: for I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
But I will for their sakes rememberH2142 the covenantH1285 of their ancestorsH7223, whom I brought forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 in the sightH5869 of the heathenH1471, that I might be their GodH430: I am the LORDH3068.
These are the statutesH2706 and judgmentsH4941 and lawsH8451, which the LORDH3068 madeH5414 between him and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in mountH2022 SinaiH5514 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872.
My netH7568 also will I spreadH6566 upon him, and he shall be takenH8610 in my snareH4686: and I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894 to the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; yet shall he not seeH7200 it, though he shall dieH4191 there.
But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearkenH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to observeH8104 to doH6213 all his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117; that all these cursesH7045 shall comeH935 upon thee, and overtakeH5381 thee:
CursedH779 shalt thou be in the cityH5892, and cursedH779 shalt thou be in the fieldH7704.
CursedH779 shall be thy basketH2935 and thy storeH4863.
CursedH779 shall be the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990, and the fruitH6529 of thy landH127, the increaseH7698 of thy kineH504, and the flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629.
CursedH779 shalt thou be when thou comest inH935, and cursedH779 shalt thou be when thou goest outH3318.
The LORDH3068 shall sendH7971 upon thee cursingH3994, vexationH4103, and rebukeH4045, in all that thou settestH4916 thine handH3027 unto for to doH6213, until thou be destroyedH8045, and until thou perishH6 quicklyH4118; becauseH6440 of the wickednessH7455 of thy doingsH4611, whereby thou hast forsakenH5800 me. {for…: Heb. which thou wouldest do}
The LORDH3068 shall make the pestilenceH1698 cleaveH1692 unto thee, until he have consumedH3615 thee from off the landH127, whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it.
The LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 thee with a consumptionH7829, and with a feverH6920, and with an inflammationH1816, and with an extreme burningH2746, and with the swordH2719, and with blastingH7711, and with mildewH3420; and they shall pursueH7291 thee until thou perishH6. {sword: or, drought}
And thy heavenH8064 that is over thy headH7218 shall be brassH5178, and the earthH776 that is under thee shall be ironH1270.
The LORDH3068 shall makeH5414 the rainH4306 of thy landH776 powderH80 and dustH6083: from heavenH8064 shall it come downH3381 upon thee, until thou be destroyedH8045.
The LORDH3068 shall causeH5414 thee to be smittenH5062 beforeH6440 thine enemiesH341: thou shalt go outH3318 oneH259 wayH1870 against them, and fleeH5127 sevenH7651 waysH1870 beforeH6440 them: and shalt be removedH2189 into all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776. {removed: Heb. for a removing}
And thy carcaseH5038 shall be meatH3978 unto all fowlsH5775 of the airH8064, and unto the beastsH929 of the earthH776, and no man shall fray them awayH2729.
The LORDH3068 will smiteH5221 thee with the botchH7822 of EgyptH4714, and with the emerodsH2914+H6076, and with the scabH1618, and with the itchH2775, whereof thou canstH3201 not be healedH7495.
The LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 thee with madnessH7697, and blindnessH5788, and astonishmentH8541 of heartH3824:
And thou shalt gropeH4959 at noondayH6672, as the blindH5787 gropethH4959 in darknessH653, and thou shalt not prosperH6743 in thy waysH1870: and thou shalt be only oppressedH6231 and spoiledH1497 evermoreH3117, and no man shall saveH3467 thee.
Thou shalt betrothH781 a wifeH802, and anotherH312 manH376 shall lieH7901+H7693 with her: thou shalt buildH1129 an houseH1004, and thou shalt not dwellH3427 therein: thou shalt plantH5193 a vineyardH3754, and shalt not gather the grapesH2490 thereof. {gather…: Heb. profane, or, use it as common meat}
Thine oxH7794 shall be slainH2873 before thine eyesH5869, and thou shalt not eatH398 thereof: thine assH2543 shall be violently taken awayH1497 from before thy faceH6440, and shall not be restoredH7725 to thee: thy sheepH6629 shall be givenH5414 unto thine enemiesH341, and thou shalt have none to rescueH3467 them. {shall not…: Heb. shall not return to thee}
Thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 shall be givenH5414 unto anotherH312 peopleH5971, and thine eyesH5869 shall lookH7200, and failH3616 with longing for them all the dayH3117 long: and there shall be no mightH410 in thine handH3027.
The fruitH6529 of thy landH127, and all thy laboursH3018, shall a nationH5971 which thou knowestH3045 not eat upH398; and thou shalt be only oppressedH6231 and crushedH7533 alwayH3117:
So that thou shalt be madH7696 for the sightH4758 of thine eyesH5869 which thou shalt seeH7200.
The LORDH3068 shall smiteH5221 thee in the kneesH1290, and in the legsH7785, with a soreH7451 botchH7822 that cannotH3201 be healedH7495, from the soleH3709 of thy footH7272 unto the top of thy headH6936.
The LORDH3068 shall bringH3212 thee, and thy kingH4428 which thou shalt setH6965 over thee, unto a nationH1471 which neither thou nor thy fathersH1 have knownH3045; and there shalt thou serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, woodH6086 and stoneH68.
And thou shalt become an astonishmentH8047, a proverbH4912, and a bywordH8148, among all nationsH5971 whither the LORDH3068 shall leadH5090 thee.
Thou shalt carryH3318 muchH7227 seedH2233 outH3318 into the fieldH7704, and shalt gatherH622 but littleH4592 inH622; for the locustH697 shall consumeH2628 it.
Thou shalt plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and dressH5647 them, but shalt neither drinkH8354 of the wineH3196, nor gatherH103 the grapes; for the wormsH8438 shall eatH398 them.
Thou shalt have olive treesH2132 throughout all thy coastsH1366, but thou shalt not anointH5480 thyself with the oilH8081; for thine oliveH2132 shall castH5394 his fruit.
Thou shalt begetH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall goH3212 into captivityH7628. {thou shalt not…: Heb. they shall not be thine}
All thy treesH6086 and fruitH6529 of thy landH127 shall the locustH6767 consumeH3423. {consume: or, possess}
The strangerH1616 that is withinH7130 thee shall get upH5927 above thee veryH4605 highH4605; and thou shalt come downH3381 veryH4295 lowH4295.
He shall lendH3867 to thee, and thou shalt not lendH3867 to him: he shall be the headH7218, and thou shalt be the tailH2180.
Moreover all these cursesH7045 shall comeH935 upon thee, and shall pursueH7291 thee, and overtakeH5381 thee, till thou be destroyedH8045; because thou hearkenedstH8085 not unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 which he commandedH6680 thee:
And they shall be upon thee for a signH226 and for a wonderH4159, and upon thy seedH2233 forH5704 everH5769.
Because thou servedstH5647 not the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 with joyfulnessH8057, and with gladnessH2898 of heartH3824, for the abundanceH7230 of all things;
Therefore shalt thou serveH5647 thine enemiesH341 which the LORDH3068 shall sendH7971 against thee, in hungerH7458, and in thirstH6772, and in nakednessH5903, and in wantH2640 of all things: and he shall putH5414 a yokeH5923 of ironH1270 upon thy neckH6677, until he have destroyedH8045 thee.
The LORDH3068 shall bringH5375 a nationH1471 against thee from farH7350, from the endH7097 of the earthH776, as swift as the eagleH5404 fliethH1675; a nationH1471 whose tongueH3956 thou shalt not understandH8085; {understand: Heb. hear}
A nationH1471 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440, which shall not regardH5375 the personH6440 of the oldH2205, nor shew favourH2603 to the youngH5288: {of fierce…: Heb. strong of face}
And he shall eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, and the fruitH6529 of thy landH127, until thou be destroyedH8045: which also shall not leaveH7604 thee either cornH1715, wineH8492, or oilH3323, or the increaseH7698 of thy kineH504, or flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629, until he have destroyedH6 thee.
And he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179, until thy highH1364 and fencedH1219 wallsH2346 come downH3381, whereinH2004 thou trustedstH982, throughout all thy landH776: and he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179 throughout all thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee.
And thou shalt eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thine own bodyH990, the fleshH1320 of thy sonsH1121 and of thy daughtersH1323, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee, in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee: {body: Heb. belly}
So that the manH376 that is tenderH7390 among you, and veryH3966 delicateH6028, his eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward his brotherH251, and toward the wifeH802 of his bosomH2436, and toward the remnantH3499 of his childrenH1121 which he shall leaveH3498:
So that he will not giveH5414 to anyH259 of them of the fleshH1320 of his childrenH1121 whom he shall eatH398: because he hath nothing leftH7604 him in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee in all thy gatesH8179.
The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, which would not adventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323,
And toward her young oneH7988 that cometh outH3318 from between her feetH7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for wantH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179. {young one: Heb. afterbirth}
If thou wilt not observeH8104 to doH6213 all the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 that are writtenH3789 in this bookH5612, that thou mayest fearH3372 this gloriousH3513 and fearfulH3372 nameH8034, THE LORDH3068 THY GODH430;
Then the LORDH3068 will makeH6381 thy plaguesH4347 wonderfulH6381, and the plaguesH4347 of thy seedH2233, even greatH1419 plaguesH4347, and of long continuanceH539, and soreH7451 sicknessesH2483, and of long continuanceH539.
Moreover he will bringH7725 upon thee all the diseasesH4064 of EgyptH4714, which thou wast afraidH3025 ofH6440; and they shall cleaveH1692 unto thee.
Also every sicknessH2483, and every plagueH4347, which is not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of this lawH8451, them will the LORDH3068 bringH5927 upon thee, until thou be destroyedH8045. {bring: Heb. cause to ascend}
And ye shall be leftH7604 fewH4592 in numberH4962, whereasH834 ye were as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 for multitudeH7230; because thou wouldest not obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
And it shall come to pass, that as the LORDH3068 rejoicedH7797 over you to do you goodH3190, and to multiplyH7235 you; so the LORDH3068 will rejoiceH7797 over you to destroyH6 you, and to bring you to noughtH8045; and ye shall be pluckedH5255 from off the landH127 whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it.
And the LORDH3068 shall scatterH6327 thee among all peopleH5971, from the one endH7097 of the earthH776 even unto the otherH7097; and there thou shalt serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, which neither thou nor thy fathersH1 have knownH3045, even woodH6086 and stoneH68.
And among theseH1992 nationsH1471 shalt thou find no easeH7280, neither shall the soleH3709 of thy footH7272 have restH4494: but the LORDH3068 shall giveH5414 thee there a tremblingH7268 heartH3820, and failingH3631 of eyesH5869, and sorrowH1671 of mindH5315:
And thy lifeH2416 shall hangH8511 in doubt beforeH5048 thee; and thou shalt fearH6342 dayH3119 and nightH3915, and shalt have none assuranceH539 of thy lifeH2416:
In the morningH1242 thou shalt sayH559, Would God it wereH5414 evenH6153! and at evenH6153 thou shalt sayH559, Would God it wereH5414 morningH1242! for the fearH6343 of thine heartH3824 wherewith thou shalt fearH6342, and for the sightH4758 of thine eyesH5869 which thou shalt seeH7200.
And the LORDH3068 shall bringH7725 thee into EgyptH4714 againH7725 with shipsH591, by the wayH1870 whereof I spakeH559 unto thee, Thou shalt seeH7200 it no more againH3254: and there ye shall be soldH4376 unto your enemiesH341 for bondmenH5650 and bondwomenH8198, and no man shall buyH7069 you.
And I will spreadH6566 my netH7568 upon him, and he shall be takenH8610 in my snareH4686, and I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894, and will pleadH8199 with him there for his trespassH4603 that he hath trespassedH4604 against me.
So that the generationH1755 to comeH314 of your childrenH1121 that shall rise upH6965 afterH310 you, and the strangerH5237 that shall comeH935 from a farH7350 landH776, shall sayH559, when they seeH7200 the plaguesH4347 of that landH776, and the sicknessesH8463 which the LORDH3068 hath laidH2470 upon it; {which…: Heb. wherewith the LORD hath made it sick}
And that the whole landH776 thereof is brimstoneH1614, and saltH4417, and burningH8316, that it is not sownH2232, nor bearethH6779, nor any grassH6212 growethH5927 therein, like the overthrowH4114 of SodomH5467, and GomorrahH6017, AdmahH126, and ZeboimH6636, which the LORDH3068 overthrewH2015 in his angerH639, and in his wrathH2534:
Even all nationsH1471 shall sayH559, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 doneH6213 thus unto this landH776? what meaneth the heatH2750 of this greatH1419 angerH639?
Then men shall sayH559, Because they have forsakenH5800 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, which he madeH3772 with them when he brought them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714:
For they wentH3212 and servedH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worshippedH7812 them, godsH430 whom they knewH3045 not, and whom he had not givenH2505 unto them: {whom he…: or, who had not given to them any portion} {given: Heb. divided}
And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against this landH776, to bringH935 upon it all the cursesH7045 that are writtenH3789 in this bookH5612:
And the LORDH3068 rootedH5428 them out of their landH127 in angerH639, and in wrathH2534, and in greatH1419 indignationH7110, and castH7993 them into anotherH312 landH776, as it is this dayH3117.
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.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Behold, thou shalt sleepH7901 with thy fathersH1; and this peopleH5971 will rise upH6965, and go a whoringH2181 afterH310 the godsH430 of the strangersH5236 of the landH776, whither they goH935 to be amongH7130 them, and will forsakeH5800 me, and breakH6565 my covenantH1285 which I have madeH3772 with them. {sleep: Heb. lie down}
Then my angerH639 shall be kindledH2734 against them in that dayH3117, and I will forsakeH5800 them, and I will hideH5641 my faceH6440 from them, and they shall be devouredH398, and manyH7227 evilsH7451 and troublesH6869 shall befallH4672 them; so that they will sayH559 in that dayH3117, Are not these evilsH7451 comeH4672 upon us, because our GodH430 is not amongH7130 us? {befall: Heb. find}
And I will surelyH5641 hideH5641 my faceH6440 in that dayH3117 for all the evilsH7451 which they shall have wroughtH6213, in thatH3588 they are turnedH6437 unto otherH312 godsH430.
Now therefore writeH3789 ye this songH7892 for you, and teachH3925 it the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: putH7760 it in their mouthsH6310, that this songH7892 may be a witnessH5707 for me against the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
For when I shall have broughtH935 them into the landH127 which I swareH7650 unto their fathersH1, that flowethH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706; and they shall have eatenH398 and filledH7646 themselves, and waxen fatH1878; then will they turnH6437 unto otherH312 godsH430, and serveH5647 them, and provokeH5006 me, and breakH6565 my covenantH1285.
And it shall come to pass, when manyH7227 evilsH7451 and troublesH6869 are befallenH4672 them, that this songH7892 shall testifyH6030 againstH6440 them as a witnessH5707; for it shall not be forgottenH7911 out of the mouthsH6310 of their seedH2233: for I knowH3045 their imaginationH3336 which they go aboutH6213, even nowH3117, before I have broughtH935 them into the landH776 which I swareH7650. {against: Heb. before} {go…: Heb. do}
MosesH4872 therefore wroteH3789 this songH7892 the same dayH3117, and taughtH3925 it the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And he gave JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 a chargeH6680, and saidH559, Be strongH2388 and of a good courageH553: for thou shalt bringH935 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 into the landH776 which I swareH7650 unto them: and I will be with thee.
And it came to pass, when MosesH4872 had made an endH3615 of writingH3789 the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 in a bookH5612, until they were finishedH8552,
That MosesH4872 commandedH6680 the LevitesH3881, which bareH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559,
TakeH3947 this bookH5612 of the lawH8451, and putH7760 it in the sideH6654 of the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, that it may be there for a witnessH5707 against thee.
For I knowH3045 thy rebellionH4805, and thy stiffH7186 neckH6203: behold, while I am yet aliveH2416 with you this dayH3117, ye have been rebelliousH4784 against the LORDH3068; and how much more afterH310 my deathH4194?
GatherH6950 unto me all the eldersH2205 of your tribesH7626, and your officersH7860, that I may speakH1696 these wordsH1697 in their earsH241, and callH5749 heavenH8064 and earthH776 to recordH5749 against them.
For I knowH3045 that afterH310 my deathH4194 ye will utterlyH7843 corruptH7843 yourselves, and turn asideH5493 from the wayH1870 which I have commandedH6680 you; and evilH7451 will befallH7122 you in the latterH319 daysH3117; because ye will doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, to provoke him to angerH3707 through the workH4639 of your handsH3027.
But JeshurunH3484 waxed fatH8080, and kickedH1163: thou art waxen fatH8080, thou art grown thickH5666, thou art coveredH3780 with fatness; then he forsookH5203 GodH433 which madeH6213 him, and lightly esteemedH5034 the RockH6697 of his salvationH3444.
They provoked him to jealousyH7065 with strangeH2114 gods, with abominationsH8441 provoked they him to angerH3707.
They sacrificedH2076 unto devilsH7700, not to GodH433; to godsH430 whom they knewH3045 not, to newH2319 gods that cameH935 newlyH7138 upH935, whom your fathersH1 fearedH8175 not. {not to…: or, which were not God}
Of the RockH6697 that begatH3205 thee thou art unmindfulH7876, and hast forgottenH7911 GodH410 that formedH2342 thee.
And when the LORDH3068 sawH7200 it, he abhorredH5006 them, because of the provokingH3708 of his sonsH1121, and of his daughtersH1323. {abhorred: or, despised}
And he saidH559, I will hideH5641 my faceH6440 from them, I will seeH7200 what their endH319 shall be: for they are a very frowardH8419 generationH1755, childrenH1121 in whom is no faithH529.
They have moved me to jealousyH7065 with that which is notH3808 GodH410; they have provoked me to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892: and I will move them to jealousyH7065 with those which are not a peopleH5971; I will provoke them to angerH3707 with a foolishH5036 nationH1471.
For a fireH784 is kindledH6919 in mine angerH639, and shall burnH3344 unto the lowestH8482 hellH7585, and shall consumeH398 the earthH776 with her increaseH2981, and set on fireH3857 the foundationsH4144 of the mountainsH2022. {shall burn: or, hath burned} {shall consume: or, hath consumed}
I will heapH5595 mischiefsH7451 upon them; I will spendH3615 mine arrowsH2671 upon them.
They shall be burntH4198 with hungerH7458, and devouredH3898 with burning heatH7565, and with bitterH4815 destructionH6986: I will also sendH7971 the teethH8127 of beastsH929 upon them, with the poisonH2534 of serpentsH2119 of the dustH6083. {heat: Heb. coals}
The swordH2719 withoutH2351, and terrorH367 withinH2315, shall destroyH7921 both the young manH970 and the virginH1330, the sucklingH3243 also with the manH376 of gray hairsH7872. {within: Heb. from the chambers} {destroy: Heb. bereave}
I saidH559, I would scatter them into cornersH6284, I would make the remembranceH2143 of them to ceaseH7673 from among menH582:
Were it notH3884 that I fearedH1481 the wrathH3708 of the enemyH341, lest their adversariesH6862 should behave themselves strangelyH5234, and lest they should sayH559, Our handH3027 is highH7311, and the LORDH3068 hath not doneH6466 all this. {Our…: or, Our high hand, and not the LORD hath done}
For they are a nationH1471 voidH6 of counselH6098, neither is there any understandingH8394 in them.
O thatH3863 they were wiseH2449, that they understoodH7919 this, that they would considerH995 their latter endH319!
How should oneH259 chaseH7291 a thousandH505, and twoH8147 put tenH7233 thousandH505 to flightH5127, exceptH3808 their RockH6697 had soldH4376 themH3588, and the LORDH3068 had shut them upH5462?
For their rockH6697 is not as our RockH6697, even our enemiesH341 themselves being judgesH6414.
For their vineH1612 is of the vineH1612 of SodomH5467, and of the fieldsH7709 of GomorrahH6017: their grapesH6025 are grapesH6025 of gallH7219, their clustersH811 are bitterH4846: {of the vine: or, worse than the vine}
Their wineH3196 is the poisonH2534 of dragonsH8577, and the cruelH393 venomH7219 of aspsH6620.
Is not this laid up in storeH3647 with me, and sealed upH2856 among my treasuresH214?
To me belongeth vengeanceH5359, and recompenceH8005; their footH7272 shall slideH4131 in due timeH6256: for the dayH3117 of their calamityH343 is at handH7138, and the things that shall comeH6264 upon them make hasteH2363.
For the LORDH3068 shall judgeH1777 his peopleH5971, and repentH5162 himself for his servantsH5650, when he seethH7200 that their powerH3027 is goneH235, and there is noneH657 shut upH6113, or leftH5800. {power: Heb. hand}
And he shall sayH559, Where are their godsH430, their rockH6697 in whom they trustedH2620,
Which did eatH398 the fatH2459 of their sacrificesH2077, and drankH8354 the wineH3196 of their drink offeringsH5257? let them rise upH6965 and helpH5826 you, and be your protectionH5643. {your…: Heb. an hiding for you}
SeeH7200 now that I, even I, am he, and there is no godH430 with me: I killH4191, and I make aliveH2421; I woundH4272, and I healH7495: neither is there any that can deliverH5337 out of my handH3027.
For I lift upH5375 my handH3027 to heavenH8064, and sayH559, I liveH2416 for everH5769.
If I whetH8150 my glitteringH1300 swordH2719, and mine handH3027 take holdH270 on judgmentH4941; I will renderH7725 vengeanceH5359 to mine enemiesH6862, and will rewardH7999 them that hateH8130 me.
I will make mine arrowsH2671 drunkH7937 with bloodH1818, and my swordH2719 shall devourH398 fleshH1320; and that with the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491 and of the captivesH7633, from the beginningH7218 of revengesH6546 upon the enemyH341.
RejoiceH7442, O ye nationsH1471, with his peopleH5971: for he will avengeH5358 the bloodH1818 of his servantsH5650, and will renderH7725 vengeanceH5359 to his adversariesH6862, and will be mercifulH3722 unto his landH127, and to his peopleH5971. {Rejoice…: or, Praise his people, ye nations: or, Sing ye}
Yet the LORDH3068 testifiedH5749 against IsraelH3478, and against JudahH3063, byH3027 all the prophetsH5030, and by all the seersH2374, sayingH559, TurnH7725 ye from your evilH7451 waysH1870, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708, according to all the lawH8451 which I commandedH6680 your fathersH1, and which I sentH7971 to you byH3027 my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. {by: Heb. by the hand of}
Notwithstanding they would not hearH8085, but hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, like to the neckH6203 of their fathersH1, that did not believeH539 in the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
And they rejectedH3988 his statutesH2706, and his covenantH1285 that he madeH3772 with their fathersH1, and his testimoniesH5715 which he testifiedH5749 against them; and they followedH3212+H310 vanityH1892, and became vainH1891, and went afterH310 the heathenH1471 that were round aboutH5439 them, concerning whom the LORDH3068 had chargedH6680 them, that they should not doH6213 like them.
And they leftH5800 all the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and madeH6213 them molten imagesH4541, even twoH8147 calvesH5695, and madeH6213 a groveH842, and worshippedH7812 all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and servedH5647 BaalH1168.
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.
