WoeH1945 to them that deviseH2803 iniquityH205, and workH6466 evilH7451 upon their bedsH4904! when the morningH1242 is lightH216, they practiseH6213 it, because it isH3426 in the powerH410 of their handH3027.
And they covetH2530 fieldsH7704, and take them by violenceH1497; and housesH1004, and take them awayH5375: so they oppressH6231 a manH1397 and his houseH1004, even a manH376 and his heritageH5159. {oppress: or, defraud}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, against this familyH4940 do I deviseH2803 an evilH7451, from which ye shall not removeH4185 your necksH6677; neither shall ye goH3212 haughtilyH7317: for this timeH6256 is evilH7451.
In that dayH3117 shall one take upH5375 a parableH4912 against you, and lamentH5091 with a dolefulH5093 lamentationH5092, and sayH559, We be utterlyH7703 spoiledH7703: he hath changedH4171 the portionH2506 of my peopleH5971: how hath he removedH4185 it from me! turning awayH7725 he hath dividedH2505 our fieldsH7704. {a doleful…: Heb. a lamentation of lamentations} {turning…: or, instead of restoring}
Therefore thou shalt have none that shall castH7993 a cordH2256 by lotH1486 in the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068.
ProphesyH5197 ye not, say they to them that prophesyH5197: they shall not prophesyH5197 to them, that they shall not takeH5253 shameH3639. {Prophesy ye…: or, Prophesy not as they prophesy: Heb. Drop, etc}
O thou that art namedH559 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, is the spiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 straitenedH7114? are these his doingsH4611? do not my wordsH1697 do goodH3190 to him that walkethH1980 uprightlyH3477? {straitened: or, shortened?} {uprightly: Heb. upright?}
Even of lateH865 my peopleH5971 is risen upH6965 as an enemyH341: ye pull offH6584 the robeH145 withH4136 the garmentH8008 from them that passH5674 by securelyH983 as men averseH7725 from warH4421. {of late: Heb. yesterday} {with the: Heb. over against a}
The womenH802 of my peopleH5971 have ye cast outH1644 from their pleasantH8588 housesH1004; from their childrenH5768 have ye taken awayH3947 my gloryH1926 for everH5769. {women: or, wives}
AriseH6965 ye, and departH3212; for this is not your restH4496: because it is pollutedH2930, it shall destroyH2254 you, even with a soreH4834 destructionH2256.
IfH3863 a manH376 walkingH1980 in the spiritH7307 and falsehoodH8267 do lieH3576, saying, I will prophesyH5197 unto thee of wineH3196 and of strong drinkH7941; he shall even be the prophetH5197 of this peopleH5971. {walking…: or, walk with the wind, and lie falsely}
I will surelyH622 assembleH622, O JacobH3290, all of thee; I will surelyH6908 gatherH6908 the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478; I will putH7760 them togetherH3162 as the sheepH6629 of BozrahH1223+H1224, as the flockH5739 in the midstH8432 of their foldH1699: they shall make great noiseH1949 by reason of the multitude of menH120.
The breakerH6555 is come upH5927 beforeH6440 them: they have broken upH6555, and have passed throughH5674 the gateH8179, and are gone outH3318 by it: and their kingH4428 shall passH5674 beforeH6440 them, and the LORDH3068 on the headH7218 of them.

Thou shalt not covetH2530 thy neighbour'sH7453 houseH1004, thou shalt not covetH2530 thy neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802, nor his manservantH5650, nor his maidservantH519, nor his oxH7794, nor his assH2543, nor any thing that is thy neighbour'sH7453.
HearH8085 this, I pray you, ye headsH7218 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and princesH7101 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, that abhorH8581 judgmentH4941, and pervertH6140 all equityH3477.
Behold, here I am: witnessH6030 against me before the LORDH3068, and before his anointedH4899: whose oxH7794 have I takenH3947? or whose assH2543 have I takenH3947? or whom have I defraudedH6231? whom have I oppressedH7533? or of whose handH3027 have I received any bribeH3724 to blindH5956 mine eyesH5869 therewith? and I will restoreH7725 it you. {bribe: Heb. ransom} {to blind…: or, that I should hide mine eyes at him}
And AhabH256 spakeH1696 unto NabothH5022, sayingH559, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754, that I may have it for a gardenH1588 of herbsH3419, because it is nearH7138 untoH681 my houseH1004: and I will giveH5414 thee for it a betterH2896 vineyardH3754 than it; or, if it seem goodH2896 to theeH5869, I will giveH5414 thee the worthH4242 of it in moneyH3701. {seem…: Heb. be good in thine eyes}
And NabothH5022 saidH559 to AhabH256, The LORDH3068 forbidH2486 it me, that I should giveH5414 the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1 unto thee.
And AhabH256 cameH935 into his houseH1004 heavyH5620 and displeasedH2198 because of the wordH1697 which NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 had spokenH1696 to him: for he had saidH559, I will not giveH5414 thee the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1. And he laid him downH7901 upon his bedH4296, and turned awayH5437 his faceH6440, and would eatH398 no breadH3899.
But JezebelH348 his wifeH802 cameH935 to him, and saidH1696 unto him, Why is thy spiritH7307 so sadH5620, that thou eatestH398 no breadH3899?
And he saidH1696 unto her, Because I spakeH1696 unto NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, and saidH559 unto him, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754 for moneyH3701; or else, if it pleaseH2655 thee, I will giveH5414 thee another vineyardH3754 for it: and he answeredH559, I will not giveH5414 thee my vineyardH3754.
And JezebelH348 his wifeH802 saidH559 unto him, Dost thou now governH6213 the kingdomH4410 of IsraelH3478? ariseH6965, and eatH398 breadH3899, and let thine heartH3820 be merryH3190: I will giveH5414 thee the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158.
So she wroteH3789 lettersH5612 in Ahab'sH256 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 them with his sealH2368, and sentH7971 the lettersH5612 unto the eldersH2205 and to the noblesH2715 that were in his cityH5892, dwellingH3427 with NabothH5022.
And she wroteH3789 in the lettersH5612, sayingH559, ProclaimH7121 a fastH6685, and setH3427 NabothH5022 on highH7218 among the peopleH5971: {on high…: Heb. in the top of the people}
And setH3427 twoH8147 menH582, sonsH1121 of BelialH1100, before him, to bear witnessH5749 against him, sayingH559, Thou didst blasphemeH1288 GodH430 and the kingH4428. And then carry him outH3318, and stoneH5619 him, that he may dieH4191.
And the menH582 of his cityH5892, even the eldersH2205 and the noblesH2715 who were the inhabitantsH3427 in his cityH5892, didH6213 as JezebelH348 had sentH7971 unto them, and as it was writtenH3789 in the lettersH5612 which she had sentH7971 unto them.
They proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685, and setH3427 NabothH5022 on highH7218 among the peopleH5971.
And there cameH935 in twoH8147 menH582, childrenH1121 of BelialH1100, and satH3427 before him: and the menH582 of BelialH1100 witnessedH5749 against him, even against NabothH5022, in the presence of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, NabothH5022 did blasphemeH1288 GodH430 and the kingH4428. Then they carried him forthH3318 outH2351 of the cityH5892, and stonedH5619 him with stonesH68, that he diedH4191.
Then they sentH7971 to JezebelH348, sayingH559, NabothH5022 is stonedH5619, and is deadH4191.
And it came to pass, when JezebelH348 heardH8085 that NabothH5022 was stonedH5619, and was deadH4191, that JezebelH348 saidH559 to AhabH256, AriseH6965, take possessionH3423 of the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, which he refusedH3985 to giveH5414 thee for moneyH3701: for NabothH5022 is not aliveH2416, but deadH4191.
And it came to pass, when AhabH256 heardH8085 that NabothH5022 was deadH4191, that AhabH256 rose upH6965 to go downH3381 to the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, to take possessionH3423 of it.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to ElijahH452 the TishbiteH8664, sayingH559,
AriseH6965, go downH3381 to meetH7125 AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, which is in SamariaH8111: behold, he is in the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022, whither he is gone downH3381 to possessH3423 it.
And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Hast thou killedH7523, and also taken possessionH3423? And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In the placeH4725 where dogsH3611 lickedH3952 the bloodH1818 of NabothH5022 shall dogsH3611 lickH3952 thy bloodH1818, even thine.
Thou shalt neither vexH3238 a strangerH1616, nor oppressH3905 him: for ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Ye shall not afflictH6031 any widowH490, or fatherless childH3490.
IfH518 thou afflictH6031 them in any wiseH6031, and they cryH6817 at allH6817 unto me, I will surelyH8085 hearH8085 their cryH6818;
And my wrathH639 shall wax hotH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719; and your wivesH802 shall be widowsH490, and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.
And they saidH559, Thou hast not defraudedH6231 us, nor oppressedH7533 us, neither hast thou takenH3947 oughtH3972 of any man'sH376 handH3027.
If my landH127 cryH2199 against me, or that the furrowsH8525 likewiseH3162 thereof complainH1058; {complain: Heb. weep}
Surely I have seenH7200 yesterdayH570 the bloodH1818 of NabothH5022, and the bloodH1818 of his sonsH1121, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and I will requiteH7999 thee in this platH2513, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. Now therefore takeH5375 and castH7993 him into the platH2513 of ground, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. {blood: Heb. bloods} {plat: or, portion}
WoeH1945 unto them that joinH5060 houseH1004 to houseH1004, that layH7126 fieldH7704 to fieldH7704, till there be noH657 placeH4725, that they may be placedH3427 alone in the midstH7130 of the earthH776! {they: Heb. ye}
And there was a greatH1419 cryH6818 of the peopleH5971 and of their wivesH802 against their brethrenH251 the JewsH3064.
For there wereH3426 that saidH559, We, our sonsH1121, and our daughtersH1323, are manyH7227: therefore we take upH3947 cornH1715 for them, that we may eatH398, and liveH2421.
Some also there wereH3426 that saidH559, We have mortgagedH6148 our landsH7704, vineyardsH3754, and housesH1004, that we might buyH3947 cornH1715, because of the dearthH7458.
There wereH3426 also that saidH559, We have borrowedH3867 moneyH3701 for the king'sH4428 tributeH4060, and that upon our landsH7704 and vineyardsH3754.
Yet now our fleshH1320 is as the fleshH1320 of our brethrenH251, our childrenH1121 as their childrenH1121: and, lo, we bring into bondageH3533 our sonsH1121 and our daughtersH1323 to be servantsH5650, and some of our daughtersH1323 areH3426 brought unto bondageH3533 already: neither is it in our powerH410+H3027 to redeem them; for other menH312 have our landsH7704 and vineyardsH3754.
But thine eyesH5869 and thine heartH3820 are not but for thy covetousnessH1215, and for to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, and for oppressionH6233, and for violenceH4835, to doH6213 it. {violence: or, incursion}
Some removeH5381 the landmarksH1367; they violently take awayH1497 flocksH5739, and feedH7462 thereof. {feed…: or, feed them}
They drive awayH5090 the assH2543 of the fatherlessH3490, they takeH2254 the widow'sH490 oxH7794 for a pledgeH2254.
They turnH5186 the needyH34 out of the wayH1870: the poorH6041+H6035 of the earthH776 hideH2244 themselves togetherH3162.
Behold, as wild assesH6501 in the desertH4057, go they forthH3318 to their workH6467; rising betimesH7836 for a preyH2964: the wildernessH6160 yieldeth foodH3899 for them and for their childrenH5288.
They reapH7114+H7114 every one his cornH1098 in the fieldH7704: and they gatherH3953 the vintageH3754 of the wickedH7563. {corn: Heb. mingled corn, or, dredge} {they gather…: Heb. the wicked gather the vintage}
They cause the nakedH6174 to lodgeH3885 without clothingH3830, that they have no coveringH3682 in the coldH7135.
They are wetH7372 with the showersH2230 of the mountainsH2022, and embraceH2263 the rockH6697 for want of a shelterH4268.
They pluckH1497 the fatherlessH3490 from the breastH7699, and take a pledgeH2254 of the poorH6041.
They cause him to goH1980 nakedH6174 without clothingH3830, and they take awayH5375 the sheafH6016 from the hungryH7457;
Which make oilH6671 withinH996 their wallsH7791, and treadH1869 their winepressesH3342, and suffer thirstH6770.
MenH4962 groanH5008 from out of the cityH5892, and the soulH5315 of the woundedH2491 crieth outH7768: yet GodH433 layethH7760 not follyH8604 to them.
HearH8085 this, O ye that swallow upH7602 the needyH34, even to makeH7673 the poorH6041+H6035 of the landH776 to failH7673,
Hath oppressedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34, hath spoiledH1497 by violenceH1500, hath not restoredH7725 the pledgeH2258, and hath lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544, hath committedH6213 abominationH8441,
Yea also, because he transgressethH898 by wineH3196, he is a proudH3093 manH1397, neither keepeth at homeH5115, who enlargethH7337 his desireH5315 as hellH7585, and is as deathH4194, and cannot be satisfiedH7646, but gatherethH622 unto him all nationsH1471, and heapethH6908 unto him all peopleH5971: {Yea…: or, How much more}
Shall not all these take upH5375 a parableH4912 against him, and a tauntingH4426 proverbH2420 against him, and sayH559, WoeH1945 to him that increasethH7235 that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladethH3513 himself with thick clayH5671! {Woe…: or, Ho, he}
Shall they not rise upH6965 suddenlyH6621 that shall biteH5391 thee, and awakeH3364 that shall vexH2111 thee, and thou shalt be for bootiesH4933 unto them?
Because thou hast spoiledH7997 manyH7227 nationsH1471, all the remnantH3499 of the peopleH5971 shall spoilH7997 thee; because of men'sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 therein. {blood: Heb. bloods}
WoeH1945 to him that covetethH1214 an evilH7451 covetousnessH1215 to his houseH1004, that he may setH7760 his nestH7064 on highH4791, that he may be deliveredH5337 from the powerH3709 of evilH7451! {coveteth…: or, gaineth and evil gain} {power…: Heb. palm of the hand}
In thee have they takenH3947 giftsH7810 to shedH8210 bloodH1818; thou hast takenH3947 usuryH5392 and increaseH8636, and thou hast greedily gainedH1214 of thy neighboursH7453 by extortionH6233, and hast forgottenH7911 me, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
ForG1063 the love of moneyG5365 isG2076 the rootG4491 of allG3956 evilG2556: whichG3739 while someG5100 coveted afterG3713, they have erredG635 fromG575 the faithG4102, andG2532 piercedG4044 themselvesG1438 throughG4044 with manyG4183 sorrowsG3601. {erred: or, been seduced}
HearH8085 this, O ye that swallow upH7602 the needyH34, even to makeH7673 the poorH6041+H6035 of the landH776 to failH7673,
And I will come nearH7126 to you to judgmentH4941; and I will be a swiftH4116 witnessH5707 against the sorcerersH3784, and against the adulterersH5003, and against falseH8267 swearersH7650, and against those that oppressH6231 the hirelingH7916 in his wagesH7939, the widowH490, and the fatherlessH3490, and that turn asideH5186 the strangerH1616 from his right, and fearH3372 not me, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {oppress: or, defraud}
