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}

And now art thou cursedH779 from the earthH127, which hath openedH6475 her mouthH6310 to receiveH3947 thy brother'sH251 bloodH1818 from thy handH3027;
WhenH3588 thou tillestH5647 the groundH127, it shall not henceforthH3254 yieldH5414 unto thee her strengthH3581; a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 shalt thou be in the earthH776.
And CainH7014 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, My punishmentH5771 is greaterH1419 than I can bearH5375. {My…: or, Mine iniquity is greater than that it may be forgiven}
Behold, thou hast driven me outH1644 this dayH3117 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127; and fromH5921 thy faceH6440 shall I be hidH5641; and I shall be a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 in the earthH776; and it shall come to passH1961, that every one that findeth meH4672 shall slay meH2026.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, ThereforeH3651 whosoever slayethH2026 CainH7014, vengeance shall be takenH5358 on him sevenfoldH7659. And the LORDH3068 setH7760 a markH226 upon CainH7014, lestH1115 any findingH4672 him should killH5221 him.
And CainH7014 went outH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and dweltH3427 in the landH776 of NodH5113, on the eastH6926 of EdenH5731.
And CainH7014 knewH3045 his wifeH802; and she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 EnochH2585: and he buildedH1129 a cityH5892, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892, after the nameH8034 of his sonH1121, EnochH2585. {Enoch: Heb. Chanoch}
And JoshuaH3091 adjuredH7650 them at that timeH6256, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, that riseth upH6965 and buildethH1129 this cityH5892 JerichoH3405: he shall lay the foundationH3245 thereof in his firstbornH1060, and in his youngestH6810 son shall he set upH5324 the gatesH1817 of it.
In his daysH3117 did HielH2419 the BetheliteH1017 buildH1129 JerichoH3405: he laid the foundationH3245 thereof in AbiramH48 his firstbornH1060, and set upH5324 the gatesH1817 thereof in his youngestH6810 son SegubH7687, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 byH3027 JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126.
WoeH1945 unto him that buildethH1129 his houseH1004 byH3808 unrighteousnessH6664, and his chambersH5944 by wrongH4941; that useth his neighbour'sH7453 serviceH5647 without wagesH2600, and givethH5414 him not for his workH6467;
That saithH559, I will buildH1129 me a wideH4060 houseH1004 and largeH7304 chambersH5944, and cutteth him outH7167 windowsH2474; and it is cieledH5603 with cedarH730, and paintedH4886 with vermilionH8350. {large: Heb. through-aired} {windows: or, my windows}
Shalt thou reignH4427, because thou closestH8474 thyself in cedarH730? did not thy fatherH1 eatH398 and drinkH8354, and doH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666, and then it was wellH2896 with him?
He judgedH1777 the causeH1779 of the poorH6041 and needyH34; then it was wellH2896 with him: was not this to knowH1847 me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
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}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH188 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892! I will even make the pileH4071 for fire greatH1431.
WhereforeH3861, O kingH4430, let my counselH4431 be acceptableH8232 unto theeH5922, and break offH6562 thy sinsH2408 by righteousnessH6665, and thine iniquitiesH5758 by shewing mercyH2604 to the poorH6033; ifH2006 it may beH1934 a lengtheningH754 of thy tranquillityH7963. {a lengthening…: or, an healing of thine error}
AllH3606 this cameH4291 uponH5922 the kingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020.
At the endH7118 of twelveH8648+H6236 monthsH3393 he walkedH1934+H1981 inH5922 the palaceH1965 of the kingdomH4437 of BabylonH895. {in: or, upon}
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?
WhileH5751 the wordH4406 was in the king'sH4430 mouthH6433, there fellH5308 a voiceH7032 fromH4481 heavenH8065, saying, O kingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020, to thee it is spokenH560; The kingdomH4437 is departedH5709 fromH4481 thee.
They build upH1129 ZionH6726 with bloodH1818, and JerusalemH3389 with iniquityH5766. {blood: Heb. bloods}

ThenG3767 gatheredG4863 the chief priestsG749 andG2532 the PhariseesG5330 a councilG4892, andG2532 saidG3004, WhatG5101 do weG4160? forG3754 thisG3778 manG444 doethG4160 manyG4183 miraclesG4592.
IfG1437 we letG863 himG846 thusG3779 aloneG863, allG3956 men will believeG4100 onG1519 himG846: andG2532 the RomansG4514 shall comeG2064 andG2532 take awayG142 bothG2532 ourG2257 placeG5117 andG2532 nationG1484.
AndG1161 oneG1520+G5100 ofG1537 themG846, named CaiaphasG2533, beingG5607 the high priestG749 that sameG1565 yearG1763, saidG2036 unto themG846, YeG5210 knowG1492 nothing at allG3756+G3762,
NorG3761 considerG1260 thatG3754 it is expedientG4851 for usG2254, thatG2443 oneG1520 manG444 should dieG599 forG5228 the peopleG2992, andG2532 that the wholeG3650 nationG1484 perishG622 notG3361.
