WoeH1945 to her that is filthyH4754 and pollutedH1351, to the oppressingH3238 cityH5892! {her…: or, gluttonous: Heb. craw}
She obeyedH8085 not the voiceH6963; she receivedH3947 not correctionH4148; she trustedH982 not in the LORDH3068; she drew not nearH7126 to her GodH430. {correction: or, instruction}
Her princesH8269 withinH7130 her are roaringH7580 lionsH738; her judgesH8199 are eveningH6153 wolvesH2061; they gnaw not the bonesH1633 till the morrowH1242.
Her prophetsH5030 are lightH6348 and treacherousH900 personsH582: her priestsH3548 have pollutedH2490 the sanctuaryH6944, they have done violenceH2554 to the lawH8451.
The justH6662 LORDH3068 is in the midstH7130 thereof; he will not doH6213 iniquityH5766: everyH1242 morningH1242 doth he bringH5414 his judgmentH4941 to lightH216, he failethH5737 not; but the unjustH5767 knowethH3045 no shameH1322. {every…: Heb. morning by morning}
I have cut offH3772 the nationsH1471: their towersH6438 are desolateH8074; I made their streetsH2351 wasteH2717, that none passeth byH5674: their citiesH5892 are destroyedH6658, so that there is no manH376, that there is none inhabitantH3427. {towers: or, corners}
I saidH559, Surely thou wilt fearH3372 me, thou wilt receiveH3947 instructionH4148; so their dwellingH4583 should not be cut offH3772, howsoeverH834+H3605 I punishedH6485 them: butH403 they rose earlyH7925, and corruptedH7843 all their doingsH5949.
Therefore waitH2442 ye upon me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, until the dayH3117 that I rise upH6965 to the preyH5706: for my determinationH4941 is to gatherH622 the nationsH1471, that I may assembleH6908 the kingdomsH4467, to pourH8210 upon them mine indignationH2195, even all my fierceH2740 angerH639: for all the earthH776 shall be devouredH398 with the fireH784 of my jealousyH7068.
For then will I turnH2015 to the peopleH5971 a pureH1305 languageH8193, that they may all callH7121 upon the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, to serveH5647 him with oneH259 consentH7926. {language: Heb. lip} {consent: Heb. shoulder}
From beyondH5676 the riversH5104 of EthiopiaH3568 my suppliantsH6282, even the daughterH1323 of my dispersedH6327, shall bringH2986 mine offeringH4503.
In that dayH3117 shalt thou not be ashamedH954 for all thy doingsH5949, wherein thou hast transgressedH6586 against me: for then I will take awayH5493 out of the midstH7130 of thee them that rejoiceH5947 in thy prideH1346, and thou shalt no moreH3254 be haughtyH1361 because of my holyH6944 mountainH2022. {because…: Heb. in my holy}
I will also leaveH7604 in the midstH7130 of thee an afflictedH6041 and poorH1800 peopleH5971, and they shall trustH2620 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
The remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478 shall not doH6213 iniquityH5766, nor speakH1696 liesH3577; neither shall a deceitfulH8649 tongueH3956 be foundH4672 in their mouthH6310: for they shall feedH7462 and lie downH7257, and none shall make them afraidH2729.
SingH7442, O daughterH1323 of ZionH6726; shoutH7321, O IsraelH3478; be gladH8055 and rejoiceH5937 with all the heartH3820, O daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389.
The LORDH3068 hath taken awayH5493 thy judgmentsH4941, he hath cast outH6437 thine enemyH341: the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, even the LORDH3068, is in the midstH7130 of thee: thou shalt not seeH7200 evilH7451 any more.
In that dayH3117 it shall be saidH559 to JerusalemH3389, FearH3372 thou not: and to ZionH6726, Let not thine handsH3027 be slackH7503. {slack: or, faint}
The LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in the midstH7130 of thee is mightyH1368; he will saveH3467, he will rejoiceH7797 over thee with joyH8057; he will restH2790 in his loveH160, he will joyH1523 over thee with singingH7440. {rest: Heb. be silent}
I will gatherH622 them that are sorrowfulH3013 for the solemn assemblyH4150, who are of thee, to whom the reproachH2781 of it was a burdenH4864. {reproach…: Heb. the burden upon it was reproach}
Behold, at that timeH6256 I will undoH6213 all that afflictH6031 thee: and I will saveH3467 her that haltethH6760, and gatherH6908 her that was driven outH5080; and I will getH7760 them praiseH8416 and fameH8034 in every landH776 where they have been put to shameH1322. {get…: Heb. set them for a praise} {where…: Heb. of their shame}
At that timeH6256 will I bringH935 you again, even in the timeH6256 that I gatherH6908 you: for I will makeH5414 you a nameH8034 and a praiseH8416 among all peopleH5971 of the earthH776, when I turn backH7725 your captivityH7622 before your eyesH5869, saithH559 the LORDH3068.

Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069, Behold, I will lift upH5375 mine handH3027 to the GentilesH1471, and set upH7311 my standardH5251 to the peopleH5971: and they shall bringH935 thy sonsH1121 in their armsH2684, and thy daughtersH1323 shall be carriedH5375 upon their shouldersH3802. {arms: Heb. bosom}

And they shall bringH935 all your brethrenH251 for an offeringH4503 unto the LORDH3068 out of all nationsH1471 upon horsesH5483, and in chariotsH7393, and in littersH6632, and upon mulesH6505, and upon swift beastsH3753, to my holyH6944 mountainH2022 JerusalemH3389, saithH559 the LORDH3068, as the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 bringH935 an offeringH4503 in a cleanH2889 vesselH3627 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. {litters: or, coaches}
And I will also takeH3947 of them for priestsH3548 and for LevitesH3881, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
For from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121 even unto the going downH3996 of the same my nameH8034 shall be greatH1419 among the GentilesH1471; and in every placeH4725 incenseH6999 shall be offeredH5066 unto my nameH8034, and a pureH2889 offeringH4503: for my nameH8034 shall be greatH1419 among the heathenH1471, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
AndG2532 he aroseG450 and wentG4198: andG2532, beholdG2400, a manG435 of EthiopiaG128, an eunuchG2135 of great authorityG1413 under CandaceG2582 queenG938 of the EthiopiansG128, whoG3739 hadG2258 the charge ofG1909 allG3956 herG846 treasureG1047, andG3739 had comeG2064 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 for to worshipG4352,
NowG1161 afterG1223 manyG4119 yearsG2094 I cameG3854 to bringG4160 almsG1654 toG1519 myG3450 nationG1484, andG2532 offeringsG4376.
I sayG3004 thenG3767+G3361, Have they stumbledG4417 thatG2443 they should fallG4098? God forbidG3361+G1096: butG235 rather through theirG846 fallG3900 salvationG4991 is come unto the GentilesG1484, for toG1519 provokeG3863 themG846 to jealousyG3863.
NowG1161 ifG1487 the fallG3900 of themG846 be the richesG4149 of the worldG2889, andG2532 the diminishingG2275 of themG846 the richesG4149 of the GentilesG1484; howG4214 much moreG3123 theirG846 fulnessG4138? {diminishing: or, decay, or, loss}
That IG3165 should beG1519+G1511 the ministerG3011 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 toG1519 the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316, thatG2443 the offering upG4376 of the GentilesG1484 might beG1096 acceptableG2144, being sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {offering up: or, sacrificing}
