I will standH5975 upon my watchH4931, and setH3320 me upon the towerH4692, and will watchH6822 to seeH7200 what he will sayH1696 unto me, and what I shall answerH7725 when I am reprovedH8433. {tower: Heb. fenced place} {unto me: or, in me} {when…: or, when I am argued with: Heb. upon my reproof, or, arguing}
And the LORDH3068 answeredH6030 me, and saidH559, WriteH3789 the visionH2377, and make it plainH874 upon tablesH3871, that he may runH7323 that readethH7121 it.
For the visionH2377 is yet for an appointed timeH4150, but at the endH7093 it shall speakH6315, and not lieH3576: though it tarryH4102, waitH2442 for it; because it will surelyH935 comeH935, it will not tarryH309.
Behold, his soulH5315 which is lifted upH6075 is not uprightH3474 in him: but the justH6662 shall liveH2421 by his faithH530.
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}
Thou hast consultedH3289 shameH1322 to thy houseH1004 by cutting offH7096 manyH7227 peopleH5971, and hast sinnedH2398 against thy soulH5315.
For the stoneH68 shall cry outH2199 of the wallH7023, and the beam outH3714 of the timberH6086 shall answerH6030 it. {beam: or, piece, or, fastening} {answer it: or, witness against it}
WoeH1945 to him that buildethH1129 a townH5892 with bloodH1818, and stablishethH3559 a cityH7151 by iniquityH5766! {blood: Heb. bloods}
Behold, is it not of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 that the peopleH5971 shall labourH3021 in the veryH1767 fireH784, and the peopleH3816 shall wearyH3286 themselves for veryH1767 vanityH7385? {for…: or, in vain?}
For the earthH776 shall be filledH4390 with the knowledgeH3045 of the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068, as the watersH4325 coverH3680 the seaH3220. {with…: or, by knowing the glory}
WoeH1945 unto him that giveth his neighbourH7453 drinkH8248, that puttestH5596 thy bottleH2573 to him, and makest him drunkenH7937 also, that thou mayest lookH5027 on their nakednessH4589!
Thou art filledH7646 with shameH7036 for gloryH3519: drinkH8354 thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncoveredH6188: the cupH3563 of the LORD'SH3068 right handH3225 shall be turnedH5437 unto thee, and shameful spewingH7022 shall be on thy gloryH3519. {with…: or, more with shame than with glory}
For the violenceH2555 of LebanonH3844 shall coverH3680 thee, and the spoilH7701 of beastsH929, which made them afraidH2865, because of men'sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 therein.
What profitethH3276 the graven imageH6459 that the makerH3335 thereof hath gravenH6458 it; the molten imageH4541, and a teacherH3384 of liesH8267, that the makerH3335 of his workH3336 trustethH982 therein, to makeH6213 dumbH483 idolsH457? {maker of…: Heb. fashioner of his fashion}
WoeH1945 unto him that saithH559 to the woodH6086, AwakeH6974; to the dumbH1748 stoneH68, AriseH5782, it shall teachH3384! Behold, it is laidH8610 over with goldH2091 and silverH3701, and there is no breathH7307 at all in the midstH7130 of it.
But the LORDH3068 is in his holyH6944 templeH1964: let all the earthH776 keep silenceH2013 beforeH6440 him. {let…: Heb. be silent all the earth before him}

Cast abroadH6327 the rageH5678 of thy wrathH639: and beholdH7200 every one that is proudH1343, and abaseH8213 him.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 hathG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG1161 he that believeth notG544 the SonG5207 shallG3700 notG3756 seeG3700 lifeG2222; butG235 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 abidethG3306 onG1909 himG846.
LookH7200 on every one that is proudH1343, and bring him lowH3665; and tread downH1915 the wickedH7563 in their place.
ForG1063 thereinG1722+G846 isG601 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 revealedG601 fromG1537 faithG4102 toG1519 faithG4102: asG2531 it is writtenG1125+G1161, The justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102.
The kingH4430 spakeH6032, and saidH560, Is notH3809 thisH1932+H1668 greatH7229 BabylonH895, that IH576 have builtH1124 for the houseH1005 of the kingdomH4437 by the mightH8632 of my powerH2632, and for the honourH3367 of my majestyH1923?
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 a manG444 isG1344 notG3756 justifiedG1344 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551, butG3362 byG1223 the faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, evenG2532 weG2249 have believedG4100 inG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 we might be justifiedG1344 byG1537 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, andG2532 notG3756 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551: forG1360 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551 shallG1344 noG3756+G3956 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344.
NowH3705 IH576 NebuchadnezzarH5020 praiseH7624 and extolH7313 and honourH1922 the KingH4430 of heavenH8065, allH3606 whose worksH4567 are truthH7187, and his waysH735 judgmentH1780: and those that walkH1981 in prideH1467 he is ableH3202 to abaseH8214.
ButG1161 thatG3754 no manG3762 is justifiedG1344 byG1722 the lawG3551 in the sightG3844 of GodG2316, it is evidentG1212: forG3754, The justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102.
But when his heartH3825 was lifted upH7313, and his mindH7308 hardenedH8631 in prideH2103, he was deposedH5182 fromH4481 his kinglyH4437 throneH3764, and they tookH5709 his gloryH3367 from himH4481: {in pride: or, to deal proudly} {deposed: Cald. made to come down}
And he was drivenH2957 fromH4481 the sonsH1123 of menH606; and his heartH3825 was madeH7739 likeH5974 the beastsH2423, and his dwellingH4070 was with the wild assesH6167: they fedH2939 him with grassH6211 like oxenH8450, and his bodyH1655 was wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065; tillH5705 he knewH3046 that the most highH5943 GodH426 ruledH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and that he appointethH6966 overH5922 it whomsoeverH4479 he willH6634. {his heart…: or, he made his heart equal, etc}
And thouH607 his sonH1247, O BelshazzarH1113, hast notH3809 humbledH8214 thine heartH3825, thoughH6903 thou knewestH3046 allH3606 thisH1836;
But hast lifted upH7313 thyself againstH5922 the LordH4756 of heavenH8065; and they have broughtH858 the vesselsH3984 of his houseH1005 beforeH6925 thee, and thouH607, and thy lordsH7261, thy wivesH7695, and thy concubinesH3904, have drunkH8355 wineH2562 in them; and thou hast praisedH7624 the godsH426 of silverH3702, and goldH1722, of brassH5174, ironH6523, woodH636, and stoneH69, which seeH2370 notH3809, norH3809 hearH8086, norH3809 knowH3046: and the GodH426 in whose handH3028 thy breathH5396 is, and whose are allH3606 thy waysH735, hast thou notH3809 glorifiedH1922:
AndG1161 the lawG3551 isG2076 notG3756 ofG1537 faithG4102: butG235, The manG444 that doethG4160 themG846 shall liveG2198 inG1722 themG846.
I tellG3004 youG5213, this manG3778 went downG2597 toG1519 hisG846 houseG3624 justifiedG1344 rather thanG2228 the otherG1565: forG3754 every oneG3956 that exaltethG5312 himselfG1438 shall be abasedG5013; andG1161 he that humblethG5013 himselfG1438 shall be exaltedG5312.
NowG1161 the justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102: butG2532 ifG1437 any man draw backG5288, myG3450 soulG5590 shall haveG2106 noG3756 pleasureG2106 inG1722 himG846.
WhoG3588 opposethG480 andG2532 exaltethG5229 himself aboveG1909 allG3956 that is calledG3004 GodG2316, orG2228 that is worshippedG4574; soG5620 that heG846 asG5613 GodG2316 sittethG2523 inG1519 the templeG3485 of GodG2316, shewingG584 himselfG1438 thatG3754 he isG2076 GodG2316.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 hathG2192 the witnessG3141 inG1722 himselfG1438: he that believethG4100 notG3361 GodG2316 hath madeG4160 himG846 a liarG5583; becauseG3754 he believethG4100 notG3756+G1519 the recordG3141 thatG3739 GodG2316 gaveG3140 ofG4012 hisG846 SonG5207.
AndG2532 thisG3778 isG2076 the recordG3141, thatG3754 GodG2316 hath givenG1325 to usG2254 eternalG166 lifeG2222, andG2532 thisG3778 lifeG2222 isG2076 inG1722 hisG846 SonG5207.
He that hathG2192 the SonG5207 hathG2192 lifeG2222; and he that hathG2192 notG3361 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 hathG2192 notG3756 lifeG2222.
