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}

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}

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.
