WoeH1945 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892! it is all fullH4392 of liesH3585 and robberyH6563; the preyH2964 departethH4185 not; {bloody…: Heb. city of bloods}
The noiseH6963 of a whipH7752, and the noiseH6963 of the rattlingH7494 of the wheelsH212, and of the pransingH1725 horsesH5483, and of the jumpingH7540 chariotsH4818.
The horsemanH6571 lifteth upH5927 both the brightH3851 swordH2719 and the glitteringH1300 spearH2595: and there is a multitudeH7230 of slainH2491, and a greatH3514 number of carcasesH6297; and there is none endH7097 of their corpsesH1472; they stumbleH3782+H3782 upon their corpsesH1472: {the bright…: Heb. the flame of the sword, and the lightning of the spear}
Because of the multitudeH7230 of the whoredomsH2183 of the wellfavouredH2896+H2580 harlotH2181, the mistressH1172 of witchcraftsH3785, that sellethH4376 nationsH1471 through her whoredomsH2183, and familiesH4940 through her witchcraftsH3785.
Behold, I am against thee, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; and I will discoverH1540 thy skirtsH7757 upon thy faceH6440, and I will shewH7200 the nationsH1471 thy nakednessH4626, and the kingdomsH4467 thy shameH7036.
And I will castH7993 abominable filthH8251 upon thee, and make thee vileH5034, and will setH7760 thee as a gazingstockH7210.
And it shall come to pass, that all they that lookH7200 upon thee shall fleeH5074 from thee, and sayH559, NinevehH5210 is laid wasteH7703: who will bemoanH5110 her? whenceH370 shall I seekH1245 comfortersH5162 for thee?
Art thou betterH3190 than populousH527+H528 NoH4996, that was situateH3427 among the riversH2975, that had the watersH4325 round aboutH5439 it, whose rampartH2426 was the seaH3220, and her wallH2346 was from the seaH3220? {populous…: or, nourishing, etc: Heb. No Amon}
EthiopiaH3568 and EgyptH4714 were her strengthH6109, and it was infiniteH369+H7097; PutH6316 and LubimH3864 were thy helpersH5833. {thy helpers: Heb. in thy help}
Yet was she carried awayH1473, she wentH1980 into captivityH7628: her young childrenH5768 also were dashed in piecesH7376 at the topH7218 of all the streetsH2351: and they castH3032 lotsH1486 for her honourable menH3513, and all her great menH1419 were boundH7576 in chainsH2131.
Thou also shalt be drunkenH7937: thou shalt be hidH5956, thou also shalt seekH1245 strengthH4581 because of the enemyH341.
All thy strong holdsH4013 shall be like fig treesH8384 with the firstripe figsH1061: if they be shakenH5128, they shall even fallH5307 into the mouthH6310 of the eaterH398.
Behold, thy peopleH5971 in the midstH7130 of thee are womenH802: the gatesH8179 of thy landH776 shall be set wideH6605 openH6605 unto thine enemiesH341: the fireH784 shall devourH398 thy barsH1280.
DrawH7579 thee watersH4325 for the siegeH4692, fortifyH2388 thy strong holdsH4013: goH935 into clayH2916, and treadH7429 the morterH2563, make strongH2388 the brickkilnH4404.
There shall the fireH784 devourH398 thee; the swordH2719 shall cut thee offH3772, it shall eat thee upH398 like the cankerwormH3218: make thyself manyH3513 as the cankerwormH3218, make thyself manyH3513 as the locustsH697.
Thou hast multipliedH7235 thy merchantsH7402 above the starsH3556 of heavenH8064: the cankerwormH3218 spoilethH6584, and flieth awayH5774. {spoileth: or, spreadeth himself}
Thy crownedH4502 are as the locustsH697, and thy captainsH2951 as the great grasshoppersH1462, which campH2583 in the hedgesH1448 in the coldH7135 dayH3117, but when the sunH8121 arisethH2224 they flee awayH5074, and their placeH4725 is not knownH3045 whereH335 they are.
Thy shepherdsH7462 slumberH5123, O kingH4428 of AssyriaH804: thy noblesH117 shall dwellH7931 in the dust: thy peopleH5971 is scatteredH6335 upon the mountainsH2022, and no man gatherethH6908 them. {nobles: or, valiant ones}
There is no healingH3545 of thy bruiseH7667; thy woundH4347 is grievousH2470: all that hearH8085 the bruitH8088 of thee shall clapH8628 the handsH3709 over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickednessH7451 passedH5674 continuallyH8548? {healing: Heb. wrinkling}

Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will punishH6485 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and his landH776, as I have punishedH6485 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.
Come downH3381, and sitH3427 in the dustH6083, O virginH1330 daughterH1323 of BabylonH894, sitH3427 on the groundH776: there is no throneH3678, O daughterH1323 of the ChaldeansH3778: for thou shalt no moreH3254 be calledH7121 tenderH7390 and delicateH6028.
And he saidH559, I sawH7200 all IsraelH3478 scatteredH6327 upon the hillsH2022, as sheepH6629 that have not a shepherdH7462: and the LORDH3068 saidH559, These have no masterH113: let them returnH7725 every manH376 to his houseH1004 in peaceH7965.
FearH367 and dreadH6343 shall fallH5307 upon them; by the greatnessH1419 of thine armH2220 they shall be as stillH1826 as a stoneH68; till thy peopleH5971 pass overH5674, O LORDH3068, till the peopleH5971 pass overH5674, whichH2098 thou hast purchasedH7069.
Behold, the AssyrianH804 was a cedarH730 in LebanonH3844 with fairH3303 branchesH6057, and with a shadowingH6751 shroudH2793, and of an highH1362 statureH6967; and his topH6788 was among the thick boughsH5688. {with fair branches: Heb. fair of branches}
The watersH4325 made him greatH1431, the deepH8415 set him up on highH7311 with her riversH5104 runningH1980 round aboutH5439 his plantsH4302, and sent outH7971 her little riversH8585 unto all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704. {made…: or, nourished him} {set…: or, brought him up} {little rivers: or, conduits}
Therefore his heightH6967 was exaltedH1361 above all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704, and his boughsH5634 were multipliedH7235, and his branchesH6288 became longH748 because of the multitudeH7227 of watersH4325, when he shot forthH7971. {when…: or, when it sent them forth}
All the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064 made their nestsH7077 in his boughsH5589, and under his branchesH6288 did all the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 bring forth their youngH3205, and under his shadowH6738 dweltH3427 all greatH7227 nationsH1471.
Thus was he fairH3302 in his greatnessH1433, in the lengthH753 of his branchesH1808: for his rootH8328 was by greatH7227 watersH4325.
The cedarsH730 in the gardenH1588 of GodH430 could not hideH6004 him: the fir treesH1265 were not likeH1819 his boughsH5589, and the chesnut treesH6196 were not like his branchesH6288; nor any treeH6086 in the gardenH1588 of GodH430 was likeH1819 unto him in his beautyH3308.
I have madeH6213 him fairH3303 by the multitudeH7230 of his branchesH1808: so that all the treesH6086 of EdenH5731, that were in the gardenH1588 of GodH430, enviedH7065 him.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou hast lifted upH1361 thyself in heightH6967, and he hath shot upH5414 his topH6788 among the thick boughsH5688, and his heartH3824 is lifted upH7311 in his heightH1363;
I have therefore deliveredH5414 him into the handH3027 of the mighty oneH410 of the heathenH1471; he shall surelyH6213 dealH6213 with him: I have driven him outH1644 for his wickednessH7562. {he…: Heb. in doing he shall do unto him}
And strangersH2114, the terribleH6184 of the nationsH1471, have cut him offH3772, and have leftH5203 him: upon the mountainsH2022 and in all the valleysH1516 his branchesH1808 are fallenH5307, and his boughsH6288 are brokenH7665 by all the riversH650 of the landH776; and all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776 are gone downH3381 from his shadowH6738, and have leftH5203 him.
Upon his ruinH4658 shall all the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064 remainH7931, and all the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall be upon his branchesH6288:
To the end that none of all the treesH6086 by the watersH4325 exaltH1361 themselves for their heightH6967, neither shoot upH5414 their topH6788 among the thick boughsH5688, neither their treesH352 stand upH5975 in their heightH1363, all that drinkH8354 waterH4325: for they are all deliveredH5414 unto deathH4194, to the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776, in the midstH8432 of the childrenH1121 of menH120, with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953. {their trees…: or, stand upon themselves for their height}
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; In the dayH3117 when he went downH3381 to the graveH7585 I caused a mourningH56: I coveredH3680 the deepH8415 for him, and I restrainedH4513 the floodsH5104 thereof, and the greatH7227 watersH4325 were stayedH3607: and I caused LebanonH3844 to mournH6937 for him, and all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 faintedH5969 for him. {to mourn: Heb. to be black}
I made the nationsH1471 to shakeH7493 at the soundH6963 of his fallH4658, when I cast him downH3381 to hellH7585 with them that descendH3381 into the pitH953: and all the treesH6086 of EdenH5731, the choiceH4005 and bestH2896 of LebanonH3844, all that drinkH8354 waterH4325, shall be comfortedH5162 in the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776.
They also went downH3381 into hellH7585 with him unto them that be slainH2491 with the swordH2719; and they that were his armH2220, that dweltH3427 under his shadowH6738 in the midstH8432 of the heathenH1471.
To whom art thou thus likeH1819 in gloryH3519 and in greatnessH1433 among the treesH6086 of EdenH5731? yet shalt thou be brought downH3381 with the treesH6086 of EdenH5731 unto the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776: thou shalt lieH7901 in the midstH8432 of the uncircumcisedH6189 with them that be slainH2491 by the swordH2719. This is PharaohH6547 and all his multitudeH1995, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
AndG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093, andG2532 the great menG3175, andG2532 the rich menG4145, andG2532 the chief captainsG5506, andG2532 the mighty menG1415, andG2532 everyG3956 bondmanG1401, andG2532 everyG3956 free manG1658, hidG2928 themselvesG1438 inG1519 the densG4693 andG2532 inG1519 the rocksG4073 of the mountainsG3735;
And it shall be as the chasedH5080 roeH6643, and as a sheepH6629 that no man taketh upH6908: they shall every manH376 turnH6437 to his own peopleH5971, and fleeH5127 every oneH376 into his own landH776.
The stoutheartedH47+H3820 are spoiledH7997, they have sleptH5123 their sleepH8142: and none of the menH582 of mightH2428 have foundH4672 their handsH3027.
AsshurH804 is there and all her companyH6951: his gravesH6913 are aboutH5439 him: all of them slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719:
At thy rebukeH1606, O GodH430 of JacobH3290, both the chariotH7393 and horseH5483 are cast into a dead sleepH7290.
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}
