For, behold, in those daysH3117, and in that timeH6256, when I shall bring againH7725+H7725 the captivityH7622 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389,
I will also gatherH6908 all nationsH1471, and will bring them downH3381 into the valleyH6010 of JehoshaphatH3092, and will pleadH8199 with them there for my peopleH5971 and for my heritageH5159 IsraelH3478, whom they have scatteredH6340 among the nationsH1471, and partedH2505 my landH776.
And they have castH3032 lotsH1486 for my peopleH5971; and have givenH5414 a boyH3206 for an harlotH2181, and soldH4376 a girlH3207 for wineH3196, that they might drinkH8354.
Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O TyreH6865, and ZidonH6721, and all the coastsH1552 of PalestineH6429? will ye renderH7999 me a recompenceH1576? and if ye recompenseH1580 me, swiftlyH7031 and speedilyH4120 will I returnH7725 your recompenceH1576 upon your own headH7218;
Because ye have takenH3947 my silverH3701 and my goldH2091, and have carriedH935 into your templesH1964 my goodlyH2896 pleasant thingsH4261: {pleasant: Heb. desirable}
The childrenH1121 also of JudahH3063 and the childrenH1121 of JerusalemH3389 have ye soldH4376 unto the GreciansH3125+H1121, that ye might remove them farH7368 from their borderH1366. {the Grecians: Heb. the sons of the Grecians}
Behold, I will raiseH5782 them out of the placeH4725 whither ye have soldH4376 them, and will returnH7725 your recompenceH1576 upon your own headH7218:
And I will sellH4376 your sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323 into the handH3027 of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, and they shall sellH4376 them to the SabeansH7615, to a peopleH1471 far offH7350: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
ProclaimH7121 ye this among the GentilesH1471; PrepareH6942 warH4421, wake upH5782 the mighty menH1368, let all the menH582 of warH4421 draw nearH5066; let them come upH5927: {Prepare: Heb. Sanctify}
BeatH3807 your plowsharesH855 into swordsH2719, and your pruninghooksH4211 into spearsH7420: let the weakH2523 sayH559, I am strongH1368. {pruninghooks: or, scythes}
AssembleH5789 yourselves, and comeH935, all ye heathenH1471, and gather yourselves togetherH6908 round aboutH5439: thither cause thy mighty onesH1368 to come downH5181, O LORDH3068. {cause…: or, the LORD shall bring down}
Let the heathenH1471 be wakenedH5782, and come upH5927 to the valleyH6010 of JehoshaphatH3092: for there will I sitH3427 to judgeH8199 all the heathenH1471 round aboutH5439.
PutH7971 ye in the sickleH4038, for the harvestH7105 is ripeH1310: comeH935, get you downH3381; for the pressH1660 is fullH4390, the fatsH3342 overflowH7783; for their wickednessH7451 is greatH7227.
MultitudesH1995, multitudesH1995 in the valleyH6010 of decisionH2742: for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138 in the valleyH6010 of decisionH2742. {decision: or, concision, or, threshing}
The sunH8121 and the moonH3394 shall be darkenedH6937, and the starsH3556 shall withdrawH622 their shiningH5051.
The LORDH3068 also shall roarH7580 out of ZionH6726, and utterH5414 his voiceH6963 from JerusalemH3389; and the heavensH8064 and the earthH776 shall shakeH7493: but the LORDH3068 will be the hopeH4268 of his peopleH5971, and the strengthH4581 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. {hope: Heb. place of repair, or, harbour}
So shall ye knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430 dwellingH7931 in ZionH6726, my holyH6944 mountainH2022: then shall JerusalemH3389 be holyH6944, and there shall no strangersH2114 pass throughH5674 her any more. {holy: Heb. holiness}
And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the mountainsH2022 shall drop downH5197 new wineH6071, and the hillsH1389 shall flowH3212 with milkH2461, and all the riversH650 of JudahH3063 shall flowH3212 with watersH4325, and a fountainH4599 shall come forthH3318 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and shall waterH8248 the valleyH5158 of ShittimH7851. {flow: Heb. go}
EgyptH4714 shall be a desolationH8077, and EdomH123 shall be a desolateH8077 wildernessH4057, for the violenceH2555 against the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, because they have shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in their landH776.
But JudahH3063 shall dwellH3427 for everH5769, and JerusalemH3389 from generationH1755 to generationH1755. {dwell: or, abide}
For I will cleanseH5352 their bloodH1818 that I have not cleansedH5352: for the LORDH3068 dwellethH7931 in ZionH6726. {for the…: or, even I the LORD that}

Therefore waitH2442 ye upon me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, until the dayH3117 that I rise upH6965 to the preyH5706: for my determinationH4941 is to gatherH622 the nationsH1471, that I may assembleH6908 the kingdomsH4467, to pourH8210 upon them mine indignationH2195, even all my fierceH2740 angerH639: for all the earthH776 shall be devouredH398 with the fireH784 of my jealousyH7068.
Let the heathenH1471 be wakenedH5782, and come upH5927 to the valleyH6010 of JehoshaphatH3092: for there will I sitH3427 to judgeH8199 all the heathenH1471 round aboutH5439.
For by fireH784 and by his swordH2719 will the LORDH3068 pleadH8199 with all fleshH1320: and the slainH2491 of the LORDH3068 shall be manyH7231.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 against all mine evilH7451 neighboursH7934, that touchH5060 the inheritanceH5159 which I have caused my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 to inheritH5157; Behold, I will pluck them outH5428 of their landH127, and pluck outH5428 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 from amongH8432 them.
For I will gatherH622 all nationsH1471 against JerusalemH3389 to battleH4421; and the cityH5892 shall be takenH3920, and the housesH1004 rifledH8155, and the womenH802 ravishedH7901+H7693; and halfH2677 of the cityH5892 shall go forthH3318 into captivityH1473, and the residueH3499 of the peopleH5971 shall not be cut offH3772 from the cityH5892.
Then shall the LORDH3068 go forthH3318, and fightH3898 against those nationsH1471, as whenH3117 he foughtH3898 in the dayH3117 of battleH7128.
And his feetH7272 shall standH5975 in that dayH3117 upon the mountH2022 of OlivesH2132, which is beforeH6440 JerusalemH3389 on the eastH6924, and the mountH2022 of OlivesH2132 shall cleaveH1234 in the midstH2677 thereof toward the eastH4217 and toward the westH3220, and there shall be a veryH3966 greatH1419 valleyH1516; and halfH2677 of the mountainH2022 shall removeH4185 toward the northH6828, and halfH2677 of it toward the southH5045.

Concerning the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Hath IsraelH3478 no sonsH1121? hath he no heirH3423? why then doth their kingH4428 inheritH3423 GadH1410, and his peopleH5971 dwellH3427 in his citiesH5892? {Concerning: or, Against} {their king: or, Melcom}

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}

For thy violenceH2555 against thy brotherH251 JacobH3290 shameH955 shall coverH3680 thee, and thou shalt be cut offH3772 for everH5769.
In the dayH3117 that thou stoodestH5975 on the other side, in the dayH3117 that the strangersH2114 carried away captiveH7617 his forcesH2428, and foreignersH5237 enteredH935 into his gatesH8179, and castH3032 lotsH1486 upon JerusalemH3389, even thou wast as oneH259 of them. {captive…: or, his substance}
But thou shouldest not have lookedH7200 on the dayH3117 of thy brotherH251 in the dayH3117 that he became a strangerH5235; neither shouldest thou have rejoicedH8055 over the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 in the dayH3117 of their destructionH6; neither shouldest thou have spokenH6310 proudlyH1431 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869. {spoken…: Heb. magnified thy mouth}
Thou shouldest not have enteredH935 into the gateH8179 of my peopleH5971 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343; yea, thou shouldest not have lookedH7200 on their afflictionH7451 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343, nor have laidH7971 hands on their substanceH2428 in the dayH3117 of their calamityH343; {substance: or, forces}
Neither shouldest thou have stoodH5975 in the crosswayH6563, to cut offH3772 those of his that did escapeH6412; neither shouldest thou have delivered upH5462 those of his that did remainH8300 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869. {delivered up: or, shut up}
For the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138 upon all the heathenH1471: as thou hast doneH6213, it shall be doneH6213 unto thee: thy rewardH1576 shall returnH7725 upon thine own headH7218.
For as ye have drunkH8354 upon my holyH6944 mountainH2022, so shall all the heathenH1471 drinkH8354 continuallyH8548, yea, they shall drinkH8354, and they shall swallow downH3886, and they shall be as though they had notH3808 been. {swallow…: or, sup up}
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}
AndG2532 I sawG1492 the beastG2342, andG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093, andG2532 theirG846 armiesG4753, gathered togetherG4863 to makeG4160 warG4171 againstG3326 him that satG2521 onG1909 the horseG2462, andG2532 againstG3326 hisG846 armyG4753.
AndG2532 the beastG2342 was takenG4084, andG2532 withG3326 himG5127 the false prophetG5578 that wroughtG4160 miraclesG4592 beforeG1799 himG846, withG1722 whichG3739 he deceivedG4105 them that had receivedG2983 the markG5480 of the beastG2342, andG2532 them that worshippedG4352 hisG846 imageG1504. These bothG1417 were castG906 aliveG2198 intoG1519 a lakeG3041 of fireG4442 burningG2545 withG1722 brimstoneG2303.
AndG2532 the remnantG3062 were slainG615 withG1722 the swordG4501 of him that satG2521 uponG1909 the horseG2462, whichG3588 sword proceededG1607 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750: andG2532 allG3956 the fowlsG3732 were filledG5526 withG1537 theirG846 fleshG4561.
And in that dayH3117 will I makeH7760 JerusalemH3389 a burdensomeH4614 stoneH68 for all peopleH5971: all that burdenH6006 themselves with it shall be cut in piecesH8295+H8295, though all the peopleH1471 of the earthH776 be gathered togetherH622 against it.
I have heardH8085 the reproachH2781 of MoabH4124, and the revilingsH1421 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, whereby they have reproachedH2778 my peopleH5971, and magnifiedH1431 themselves against their borderH1366.
Therefore as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Surely MoabH4124 shall be as SodomH5467, and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 as GomorrahH6017, even the breedingH4476 of nettlesH2738, and saltpitsH4379+H4417, and a perpetualH5704+H5769 desolationH8077: the residueH7611 of my peopleH5971 shall spoilH962 them, and the remnantH3499 of my peopleH1471 shall possessH5157 them.
This shall they have for their prideH1347, because they have reproachedH2778 and magnifiedH1431 themselves against the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
AndG2532 shall go outG1831 to deceiveG4105 the nationsG1484 whichG3588 are inG1722 the fourG5064 quartersG1137 of the earthG1093, GogG1136 andG2532 MagogG3098, to gatherG4863 themG846 togetherG4863 toG1519 battleG4171: the numberG706 of whomG3739 is asG5613 the sandG285 of the seaG2281.
In that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will smiteH5221 every horseH5483 with astonishmentH8541, and his riderH7392 with madnessH7697: and I will openH6491 mine eyesH5869 upon the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, and will smiteH5221 every horseH5483 of the peopleH5971 with blindnessH5788.
AndG2532 the nationsG1484 were angryG3710, andG2532 thyG4675 wrathG3709 is comeG2064, andG2532 the timeG2540 of the deadG3498, that they should be judgedG2919, andG2532 that thou shouldest giveG1325 rewardG3408 unto thyG4675 servantsG1401 the prophetsG4396, andG2532 to the saintsG40, andG2532 them that fearG5399 thyG4675 nameG3686, smallG3398 andG2532 greatG3173; andG2532 shouldest destroyG1311 them which destroyG1311 the earthG1093. {destroy the earth: or, corrupt the earth}
ForG3754 they have shedG1632 the bloodG129 of saintsG40 andG2532 prophetsG4396, andG2532 thou hast givenG1325 themG846 bloodG129 to drinkG4095; forG1063 they areG1526 worthyG514.
RejoiceG2165 overG1909 herG846, thou heavenG3772, andG2532 ye holyG40 apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396; forG3754 GodG2316 hath avengedG2917+G2919 youG5216 onG1537 herG846.
AndG2532 aG1520 mightyG2478 angelG32 took upG142 a stoneG3037 likeG5613 a greatG3173 millstoneG3458, andG2532 castG906 it intoG1519 the seaG2281, sayingG3004, ThusG3779 with violenceG3731 shallG906 that greatG3173 cityG4172 BabylonG897 be thrown downG906, andG2532 shall be foundG2147 no moreG3364 at allG2089.
