The wordsH1697 of AmosH5986, who was among the herdmenH5349 of TekoaH8620, which he sawH2372 concerning IsraelH3478 in the daysH3117 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and in the daysH3117 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, two yearsH8141 beforeH6440 the earthquakeH7494.
And he saidH559, The LORDH3068 will roarH7580 from ZionH6726, and utterH5414 his voiceH6963 from JerusalemH3389; and the habitationsH4999 of the shepherdsH7462 shall mournH56, and the topH7218 of CarmelH3760 shall witherH3001.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of DamascusH1834, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they have threshedH1758 GileadH1568 with threshing instrumentsH2742 of ironH1270: {and…: or, yea, for four} {turn…: or, convert it, or, let it be quiet}

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of GazaH5804, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they carried away captiveH1540 the wholeH8003 captivityH1546, to deliver them upH5462 to EdomH123: {away captive…: or, them away with an entire}
But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 on the wallH2346 of GazaH5804, which shall devourH398 the palacesH759 thereof:
And I will cut offH3772 the inhabitantH3427 from AshdodH795, and him that holdethH8551 the sceptreH7626 from AshkelonH831, and I will turnH7725 mine handH3027 against EkronH6138: and the remnantH7611 of the PhilistinesH6430 shall perishH6, saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of TyrusH6865, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they delivered upH5462 the wholeH8003 captivityH1546 to EdomH123, and rememberedH2142 not the brotherlyH251 covenantH1285: {the brotherly…: Heb. the covenant of brethren}

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of EdomH123, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because he did pursueH7291 his brotherH251 with the swordH2719, and did cast offH7843 all pityH7356, and his angerH639 did tearH2963 perpetuallyH5703, and he keptH8104 his wrathH5678 for everH5331: {did cast…: Heb. corrupted his compassions}

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they have ripped upH1234 the women with childH2030 of GileadH1568, that they might enlargeH7337 their borderH1366: {ripped…: or, divided the mountains}
But I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the wallH2346 of RabbahH7237, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 thereof, with shoutingH8643 in the dayH3117 of battleH4421, with a tempestH5591 in the dayH3117 of the whirlwindH5492:
And their kingH4428 shall goH1980 into captivityH1473, he and his princesH8269 togetherH3162, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of MoabH4124, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because he burnedH8313 the bonesH6106 of the kingH4428 of EdomH123 into limeH7875:
But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 upon MoabH4124, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of KeriothH7152: and MoabH4124 shall dieH4191 with tumultH7588, with shoutingH8643, and with the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782:

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of JudahH3063, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they have despisedH3988 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068, and have not keptH8104 his commandmentsH2706, and their liesH3577 caused them to errH8582, afterH310 the which their fathersH1 have walkedH1980:

Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of IsraelH3478, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they soldH4376 the righteousH6662 for silverH3701, and the poorH34 for a pair of shoesH5275;
That pantH7602 after the dustH6083 of the earthH776 on the headH7218 of the poorH1800, and turn asideH5186 the wayH1870 of the meekH6035: and a manH376 and his fatherH1 will goH3212 in unto the same maidH5291, to profaneH2490 my holyH6944 nameH8034: {maid: or, young woman}
And they lay themselves downH5186 upon clothesH899 laid to pledgeH2254 byH681 every altarH4196, and they drinkH8354 the wineH3196 of the condemnedH6064 in the houseH1004 of their godH430. {the condemned: or, such as have fined, or, mulcted}
Yet destroyedH8045 I the AmoriteH567 beforeH6440 them, whose heightH1363 was like the heightH1363 of the cedarsH730, and he was strongH2634 as the oaksH437; yet I destroyedH8045 his fruitH6529 from aboveH4605, and his rootsH8328 from beneath.
Also I brought you upH5927 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and ledH3212 you fortyH705 yearsH8141 through the wildernessH4057, to possessH3423 the landH776 of the AmoriteH567.
And I raised upH6965 of your sonsH1121 for prophetsH5030, and of your young menH970 for NazaritesH5139. Is it not even thus, O ye childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But ye gave the NazaritesH5139 wineH3196 to drinkH8248; and commandedH6680 the prophetsH5030, sayingH559, ProphesyH5012 not.
Behold, I am pressedH5781 under you, as a cartH5699 is pressedH5781 that is fullH4392 of sheavesH5995. {I am…: or, I will press your place, as a cart full of sheaves presseth}
Therefore the flightH4498 shall perishH6 from the swiftH7031, and the strongH2389 shall not strengthenH553 his forceH3581, neither shall the mightyH1368 deliverH4422 himselfH5315: {himself: Heb. his soul, or, life}
Neither shall he standH5975 that handlethH8610 the bowH7198; and he that is swiftH7031 of footH7272 shall not deliverH4422 himself: neither shall he that ridethH7392 the horseH5483 deliverH4422 himselfH5315.
And he that is courageousH533+H3820 among the mightyH1368 shall flee awayH5127 nakedH6174 in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {courageous: Heb. strong of his heart}
HearH8085 this wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 against you, O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, against the whole familyH4940 which I brought upH5927 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, sayingH559,
You only have I knownH3045 of all the familiesH4940 of the earthH127: therefore I will punishH6485 you for all your iniquitiesH5771. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
Can twoH8147 walkH3212 togetherH3162, exceptH1115 they be agreedH3259?
Will a lionH738 roarH7580 in the forestH3293, when he hath no preyH2964? will a young lionH3715 cry outH5414+H6963 of his denH4585, if he have takenH3920 nothingH1115? {cry: Heb. give forth his voice}
Can a birdH6833 fallH5307 in a snareH6341 upon the earthH776, where no ginH4170 is for him? shall one take upH5927 a snareH6341 from the earthH127, and have takenH3920 nothing at allH3920?
Shall a trumpetH7782 be blownH8628 in the cityH5892, and the peopleH5971 not be afraidH2729? shall there be evilH7451 in a cityH5892, and the LORDH3068 hath not doneH6213 it? {be afraid: or, run together? the LORD…: or, shall not the L.doe somewhat?}
Surely the LordH136 GODH3069 will doH6213 nothingH1697, but he revealethH1540 his secretH5475 unto his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
The lionH738 hath roaredH7580, who will notH3808 fearH3372? the LordH136 GODH3069 hath spokenH1696, who can but prophesyH5012?
PublishH8085 in the palacesH759 at AshdodH795, and in the palacesH759 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and sayH559, AssembleH622 yourselves upon the mountainsH2022 of SamariaH8111, and beholdH7200 the greatH7227 tumultsH4103 in the midstH7130 thereof, and the oppressedH6217 in the midstH8432 thereof. {oppressed: or, oppressions}
For they knowH3045 not to doH6213 rightH5229, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, who storeH686 up violenceH2555 and robberyH7701 in their palacesH759. {robbery: or, spoil}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; An adversaryH6862 there shall be even round aboutH5439 the landH776; and he shall bring downH3381 thy strengthH5797 from thee, and thy palacesH759 shall be spoiledH962.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; As the shepherdH7462 taketh outH5337 of the mouthH6310 of the lionH738 twoH8147 legsH3767, or a pieceH915 of an earH241; so shall the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 be taken outH5337 that dwellH3427 in SamariaH8111 in the cornerH6285 of a bedH4296, and in DamascusH1833 in a couchH6210. {taketh: Heb. delivereth} {in Damascus…: or, on the bed's feet}
HearH8085 ye, and testifyH5749 in the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, the GodH430 of hostsH6635,
That in the dayH3117 that I shall visitH6485 the transgressionsH6588 of IsraelH3478 upon him I will also visitH6485 the altarsH4196 of BethelH1008: and the hornsH7161 of the altarH4196 shall be cut offH1438, and fallH5307 to the groundH776. {visit: or, punish Israel for}
And I will smiteH5221 the winterH2779 houseH1004 with the summerH7019 houseH1004; and the housesH1004 of ivoryH8127 shall perishH6, and the greatH7227 housesH1004 shall have an endH5486, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
AndG2532 there cameG2064 oneG1520 ofG1537 the sevenG2033 angelsG32 whichG3588 hadG2192 the sevenG2033 vialsG5357, andG2532 talkedG2980 withG3326 meG1700, sayingG3004 unto meG3427, Come hitherG1204; I will shewG1166 unto theeG4671 the judgmentG2917 of the greatG3173 whoreG4204 that sittethG2521 uponG1909 manyG4183 watersG5204:
WithG3326 whomG3739 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 have committed fornicationG4203, andG2532 the inhabitantsG2730 of the earthG1093 have been made drunkG3184 withG1537 the wineG3631 of herG846 fornicationG4202.
SoG2532 he carriedG667 meG3165 awayG667 inG1722 the spiritG4151 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048: andG2532 I sawG1492 a womanG1135 sitG2521 uponG1909 a scarlet colouredG2847 beastG2342, full ofG1073 namesG3686 of blasphemyG988, havingG2192 sevenG2033 headsG2776 andG2532 tenG1176 hornsG2768.
AndG2532 the womanG1135 wasG2258 arrayedG4016 in purpleG4209 andG2532 scarlet colourG2847, andG2532 deckedG5558 with goldG5557 andG2532 preciousG5093 stonesG3037 andG2532 pearlsG3135, havingG2192 a goldenG5552 cupG4221 inG1722 herG846 handG5495 full ofG1073 abominationsG946 andG2532 filthinessG168 of herG846 fornicationG4202: {decked: Gr. gilded}
AndG2532 uponG1909 herG846 foreheadG3359 was a nameG3686 writtenG1125, MYSTERYG3466, BABYLONG897 THE GREATG3173, THE MOTHERG3384 OF HARLOTSG4204 ANDG2532 ABOMINATIONSG946 OF THE EARTHG1093. {harlots: or, fornications}
AndG2532 I sawG1492 the womanG1135 drunkenG3184 withG1537 the bloodG129 of the saintsG40, andG2532 withG1537 the bloodG129 of the martyrsG3144 of JesusG2424: andG2532 when I sawG1492 herG846, I wonderedG2296 with greatG3173 admirationG2295.
AndG2532 the angelG32 saidG2036 unto meG3427, WhereforeG1302 didst thou marvelG2296? IG1473 will tellG2046 theeG4671 the mysteryG3466 of the womanG1135, andG2532 of the beastG2342 that carriethG941 herG846, whichG3588 hathG2192 the sevenG2033 headsG2776 andG2532 tenG1176 hornsG2768.
The beastG2342 thatG3739 thou sawestG1492 wasG2258, andG2532 isG2076 notG3756; andG2532 shallG3195 ascendG305 out ofG1537 the bottomless pitG12, andG2532 goG5217 intoG1519 perditionG684: andG2532 they that dwellG2730 onG1909 the earthG1093 shall wonderG2296, whoseG3739 namesG3686 wereG1125 notG3756 writtenG1125 inG1909 the bookG975 of lifeG2222 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, when they beholdG991 the beastG2342 that wasG3748+G2258, andG2532 isG2076 notG3756, and yetG2539 isG2076.
And hereG5602 is the mindG3563 whichG3588 hathG2192 wisdomG4678. The sevenG2033 headsG2776 areG1526 sevenG2033 mountainsG3735, onG1909 whichG846 the womanG1135 sittethG2521+G3699.
AndG2532 there areG1526 sevenG2033 kingsG935: fiveG4002 are fallenG4098, andG2532 oneG1520 isG2076, and the otherG243 isG2064 not yetG3768 comeG2064; andG2532 whenG3752 he comethG2064, heG846 mustG1163 continueG3306 a short spaceG3641.
AndG2532 the beastG2342 thatG3739 wasG2258, andG2532 isG2076 notG3756, evenG2532 heG846 isG2076 the eighthG3590, andG2532 isG2076 ofG1537 the sevenG2033, andG2532 goethG5217 intoG1519 perditionG684.
AndG2532 the tenG1176 hornsG2768 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 areG1526 tenG1176 kingsG935, whichG3748 have receivedG2983 noG3768 kingdomG932 as yetG3768; butG235 receiveG2983 powerG1849 asG5613 kingsG935 oneG3391 hourG5610 withG3326 the beastG2342.
TheseG3778 haveG2192 oneG3391 mindG1106, andG2532 shall giveG1239 theirG1438 powerG1411 andG2532 strengthG1849 unto the beastG2342.
TheseG3778 shall make warG4170 withG3326 the LambG721, andG2532 the LambG721 shall overcomeG3528 themG846: forG3754 he isG2076 LordG2962 of lordsG2962, andG2532 KingG935 of kingsG935: andG2532 they that are withG3326 himG846 are calledG2822, andG2532 chosenG1588, andG2532 faithfulG4103.
AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto meG3427, The watersG5204 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492, whereG3757 the whoreG4204 sittethG2521, areG1526 peoplesG2992, andG2532 multitudesG3793, andG2532 nationsG1484, andG2532 tonguesG1100.
AndG2532 the tenG1176 hornsG2768 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 uponG1909 the beastG2342, theseG3778 shall hateG3404 the whoreG4204, andG2532 shall makeG4160 herG846 desolateG2049 andG2532 nakedG1131, andG2532 shall eatG5315 herG846 fleshG4561, andG2532 burnG2618 herG846 withG1722 fireG4442.
ForG1063 GodG2316 hath putG1325 inG1519 theirG846 heartsG2588 to fulfilG4160 hisG846 willG1106, andG2532 to agreeG4160+G3391+G1106, andG2532 giveG1325 theirG846 kingdomG932 unto the beastG2342, untilG891 the wordsG4487 of GodG2316 shall be fulfilledG5055.
AndG2532 the womanG1135 whichG3739 thou sawestG1492 isG2076 that greatG3173 cityG4172, whichG3588 reignethG2192+G932 overG1909 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093.
AndG2532 afterG3326 these thingsG5023 I sawG1492 anotherG243 angelG32 come downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772, havingG2192 greatG3173 powerG1849; andG2532 the earthG1093 was lightenedG5461 withG1537 hisG846 gloryG1391.
AndG2532 he criedG2896 mightilyG2479 withG1722 a strongG3173 voiceG5456, sayingG3004, BabylonG897 the greatG3173 is fallenG4098, is fallenG4098, andG2532 is becomeG1096 the habitationG2732 of devilsG1142, andG2532 the holdG5438 of everyG3956 foulG169 spiritG4151, andG2532 a cageG5438 of everyG3956 uncleanG169 andG2532 hatefulG3404 birdG3732.
ForG3754 allG3956 nationsG1484 have drunkG4095 ofG1537 the wineG3631 of the wrathG2372 of herG846 fornicationG4202, andG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 have committed fornicationG4203 withG3326 herG846, andG2532 the merchantsG1713 of the earthG1093 are waxed richG4147 throughG1537 the abundanceG1411 of herG846 delicaciesG4764. {abundance: or, power}
AndG2532 I heardG191 anotherG243 voiceG5456 fromG1537 heavenG3772, sayingG3004, ComeG1831 out ofG1537 herG846, myG3450 peopleG2992, thatG3363 ye beG4790 notG3363 partakersG4790 of herG846 sinsG266, andG2532 thatG3363 ye receiveG2983 notG3363 ofG1537 herG846 plaguesG4127.
ForG3754 herG846 sinsG266 have reachedG190+G2853 untoG891 heavenG3772, andG2532 GodG2316 hath rememberedG3421 herG846 iniquitiesG92.
RewardG591 herG846 evenG2532 asG5613 sheG846+G3778 rewardedG591 youG5213, andG2532 doubleG1363 unto herG846 doubleG1362 according toG2596 herG846 worksG2041: inG1722 the cupG4221 whichG3739 she hath filledG2767 fillG2767 to herG846 doubleG1362.
How muchG3745 she hath glorifiedG1392 herselfG1438, andG2532 lived deliciouslyG4763, so muchG5118 tormentG929 andG2532 sorrowG3997 giveG1325 herG846: forG3754 she saithG3004 inG1722 herG846 heartG2588, I sitG2521 a queenG938, andG2532 amG1510 noG3756 widowG5503, andG2532 shall seeG1492 noG3364 sorrowG3997.
ThereforeG5124+G1223 shallG2240 herG846 plaguesG4127 comeG2240 inG1722 oneG3391 dayG2250, deathG2288, andG2532 mourningG3997, andG2532 famineG3042; andG2532 she shall be utterly burnedG2618 withG1722 fireG4442: forG3754 strongG2478 is the LordG2962 GodG2316 whoG3588 judgethG2919 herG846.
AndG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093, whoG3588 have committed fornicationG4203 andG2532 lived deliciouslyG4763 withG3326 herG846, shall bewailG2799 herG846, andG2532 lamentG2875 forG1909 herG846, whenG3752 they shall seeG991 the smokeG2586 of herG846 burningG4451,
StandingG2476 afarG3113 offG575 forG1223 the fearG5401 of herG846 tormentG929, sayingG3004, AlasG3759, alasG3759, that greatG3173 cityG4172 BabylonG897, that mightyG2478 cityG4172! forG3754 inG1722 oneG3391 hourG5610 isG2064 thyG4675 judgmentG2920 comeG2064.
AndG2532 the merchantsG1713 of the earthG1093 shall weepG2799 andG2532 mournG3996 overG1909 herG846; forG3754 no manG3762 buyethG59 theirG846 merchandiseG1117 any moreG3765:
The merchandiseG1117 of goldG5557, andG2532 silverG696, andG2532 preciousG5093 stonesG3037, andG2532 of pearlsG3135, andG2532 fine linenG1040, andG2532 purpleG4209, andG2532 silkG4596, andG2532 scarletG2847, andG2532 allG3956 thyineG2367 woodG3586, andG2532 all mannerG3956 vesselsG4632 of ivoryG1661, andG2532 all mannerG3956 vesselsG4632 ofG1537 most preciousG5093 woodG3586, andG2532 of brassG5475, andG2532 ironG4604, andG2532 marbleG3139, {thyine: or, sweet}
AndG2532 cinnamonG2792, andG2532 odoursG2368, andG2532 ointmentsG3464, andG2532 frankincenseG3030, andG2532 wineG3631, andG2532 oilG1637, andG2532 fine flourG4585, andG2532 wheatG4621, andG2532 beastsG2934, andG2532 sheepG4263, andG2532 horsesG2462, andG2532 chariotsG4480, andG2532 slavesG4983, andG2532 soulsG5590 of menG444. {slaves: or, bodies}
AndG2532 the fruitsG3703 that thyG4675 soulG5590 lusted afterG1939 are departedG565 fromG575 theeG4675, andG2532 all thingsG3956 whichG3588 were daintyG3045 andG2532 goodlyG2986 are departedG565 fromG575 theeG4675, andG2532 thou shalt findG2147 themG846 no moreG3765 at allG3364.
The merchantsG1713 of these thingsG5130, whichG3588 were made richG4147 byG575 herG846, shall standG2476 afarG3113 offG575 forG1223 the fearG5401 of herG846 tormentG929, weepingG2799 andG2532 wailingG3996,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, AlasG3759, alasG3759, that greatG3173 cityG4172, that was clothed inG4016 fine linenG1039, andG2532 purpleG4210, andG2532 scarletG2847, andG2532 deckedG5558 withG1722 goldG5557, andG2532 preciousG5093 stonesG3037, andG2532 pearlsG3135!
ForG3754 in oneG3391 hourG5610 so greatG5118 richesG4149 is come to noughtG2049. AndG2532 everyG3956 shipmasterG2942, andG2532 allG3956 the companyG3658 inG1909 shipsG4143, andG2532 sailorsG3492, andG2532 as many asG3745 tradeG2038 by seaG2281, stoodG2476 afarG3113 offG575,
AndG2532 criedG2896 when they sawG3708 the smokeG2586 of herG846 burningG4451, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 city is likeG3664 unto this greatG3173 cityG4172!
AndG2532 they castG906 dustG5522 onG1909 theirG846 headsG2776, andG2532 criedG2896, weepingG2799 andG2532 wailingG3996, sayingG3004, AlasG3759, alasG3759, that greatG3173 cityG4172, whereinG1722+G3739 were made richG4147 allG3956 that hadG2192 shipsG4143 inG1722 the seaG2281 by reason ofG1537 herG846 costlinessG5094! forG3754 in oneG3391 hourG5610 is she made desolateG2049.
RejoiceG2165 overG1909 herG846, thou heavenG3772, andG2532 ye holyG40 apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396; forG3754 GodG2316 hath avengedG2917+G2919 youG5216 onG1537 herG846.
AndG2532 aG1520 mightyG2478 angelG32 took upG142 a stoneG3037 likeG5613 a greatG3173 millstoneG3458, andG2532 castG906 it intoG1519 the seaG2281, sayingG3004, ThusG3779 with violenceG3731 shallG906 that greatG3173 cityG4172 BabylonG897 be thrown downG906, andG2532 shall be foundG2147 no moreG3364 at allG2089.
AndG2532 the voiceG5456 of harpersG2790, andG2532 musiciansG3451, andG2532 of pipersG834, andG2532 trumpetersG4538, shall be heardG191 no moreG3364 at allG2089 inG1722 theeG4671; andG2532 noG3364+G3956 craftsmanG5079, of whatsoeverG3956 craftG5078 he be, shall be foundG2147 any moreG2089 inG1722 theeG4671; andG2532 the soundG5456 of a millstoneG3458 shall be heardG191 no moreG3364 at allG2089 inG1722 theeG4671;
AndG2532 the lightG5457 of a candleG3088 shall shineG5316 no moreG3364 at allG2089 inG1722 theeG4671; andG2532 the voiceG5456 of the bridegroomG3566 andG2532 of the brideG3565 shall be heardG191 no moreG3364 at allG2089 inG1722 theeG4671: forG3754 thyG4675 merchantsG1713 wereG2258 the great menG3175 of the earthG1093; forG3754 byG1722 thyG4675 sorceriesG5331 wereG4105 allG3956 nationsG1484 deceivedG4105.
AndG2532 inG1722 herG846 was foundG2147 the bloodG129 of prophetsG4396, andG2532 of saintsG40, andG2532 of allG3956 that were slainG4969 uponG1909 the earthG1093.
HearH8085 this wordH1697, ye kineH6510 of BashanH1316, that are in the mountainH2022 of SamariaH8111, which oppressH6231 the poorH1800, which crushH7533 the needyH34, which sayH559 to their mastersH113, BringH935, and let us drinkH8354.
The LordH136 GODH3069 hath swornH7650 by his holinessH6944, that, lo, the daysH3117 shall comeH935 upon you, that he will take you awayH5375 with hooksH6793, and your posterityH319 with fishhooksH1729+H5518.
And ye shall go outH3318 at the breachesH6556, everyH802 cow at that which is before her; and ye shall castH7993 them into the palaceH2038, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {cast…: or, cast away the things of the palace}
ComeH935 to BethelH1008, and transgressH6586; at GilgalH1537 multiplyH7235 transgressionH6586; and bringH935 your sacrificesH2077 every morningH1242, and your tithesH4643 after threeH7969 yearsH3117: {three…: Heb. three years of days}
And offerH6999 a sacrifice of thanksgivingH8426 with leavenH2557, and proclaimH7121 and publishH8085 the free offeringsH5071: for thisH3651 likethH157 you, O ye childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {offer: Heb. offer by burning} {this…: Heb. so ye love}
And I also have givenH5414 you cleannessH5356 of teethH8127 in all your citiesH5892, and wantH2640 of breadH3899 in all your placesH4725: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And also I have withholdenH4513 the rainH1653 from you, when there were yet threeH7969 monthsH2320 to the harvestH7105: and I caused it to rainH4305 upon oneH259 cityH5892, and caused it not to rainH4305 upon anotherH259 cityH5892: oneH259 pieceH2513 was rainedH4305 upon, and the pieceH2513 whereupon it rainedH4305 not witheredH3001.
So twoH8147 or threeH7969 citiesH5892 wanderedH5128 unto oneH259 cityH5892, to drinkH8354 waterH4325; but they were not satisfiedH7646: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
I have smittenH5221 you with blastingH7711 and mildewH3420: when your gardensH1593 and your vineyardsH3754 and your fig treesH8384 and your olive treesH2132 increasedH7235, the palmerwormH1501 devouredH398 them: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {when…: or, the multitude of your gardens, etc. did the palmerworm}
I have sentH7971 among you the pestilenceH1698 after the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714: your young menH970 have I slainH2026 with the swordH2719, and have taken awayH7628 your horsesH5483; and I have made the stinkH889 of your campsH4264 to come upH5927 unto your nostrilsH639: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {after…: or, in the way} {and have…: Heb. with the captivity of your horses}
I have overthrownH2015 some of you, as GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and ye were as a firebrandH181 plucked outH5337 of the burningH8316: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore thus will I doH6213 unto thee, O IsraelH3478: and becauseH6118 I will doH6213 this unto thee, prepareH3559 to meetH7125 thy GodH430, O IsraelH3478.
For, lo, he that formethH3335 the mountainsH2022, and createthH1254 the windH7307, and declarethH5046 unto manH120 what is his thoughtH7808, that makethH6213 the morningH7837 darknessH5890, and treadethH1869 upon the high placesH1116 of the earthH776, The LORDH3068, The GodH430 of hostsH6635, is his nameH8034. {wind: or, spirit}
HearH8085 ye this wordH1697 which I take upH5375 against you, even a lamentationH7015, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
The virginH1330 of IsraelH3478 is fallenH5307; she shall no moreH3254 riseH6965: she is forsakenH5203 upon her landH127; there is none to raise her upH6965.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; The cityH5892 that went outH3318 by a thousandH505 shall leaveH7604 an hundredH3967, and that which went forthH3318 by an hundredH3967 shall leaveH7604 tenH6235, to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, SeekH1875 ye me, and ye shall liveH2421:
But seekH1875 not BethelH1008, nor enterH935 into GilgalH1537, and passH5674 not to BeershebaH884: for GilgalH1537 shall surelyH1540 go into captivityH1540, and BethelH1008 shall come to noughtH205.
SeekH1875 the LORDH3068, and ye shall liveH2421; lest he break outH6743 like fireH784 in the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, and devourH398 it, and there be none to quenchH3518 it in BethelH1008.
Ye who turnH2015 judgmentH4941 to wormwoodH3939, and leave offH3240 righteousnessH6666 in the earthH776,
Seek him that makethH6213 the seven starsH3598 and OrionH3685, and turnethH2015 the shadow of deathH6757 into the morningH1242, and maketh the dayH3117 darkH2821 with nightH3915: that callethH7121 for the watersH4325 of the seaH3220, and poureth them outH8210 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH776: The LORDH3068 is his nameH8034:
That strengthenethH1082 the spoiledH7701 against the strongH5794, so that the spoiledH7701 shall comeH935 against the fortressH4013. {spoiled: Heb. spoil}
They hateH8130 him that rebukethH3198 in the gateH8179, and they abhorH8581 him that speakethH1696 uprightlyH8549.
ForasmuchH3282 therefore as your treadingH1318 is upon the poorH1800, and ye takeH3947 from him burdensH4864 of wheatH1250: ye have builtH1129 housesH1004 of hewn stoneH1496, but ye shall not dwellH3427 in them; ye have plantedH5193 pleasantH2531 vineyardsH3754, but ye shall not drinkH8354 wineH3196 of them. {pleasant…: Heb. vineyards of desire}
For I knowH3045 your manifoldH7227 transgressionsH6588 and your mightyH6099 sinsH2403: they afflictH6887 the justH6662, they takeH3947 a bribeH3724, and they turn asideH5186 the poorH34 in the gateH8179 from their right. {a bribe: or, a ransom}
Therefore the prudentH7919 shall keep silenceH1826 in that timeH6256; for it is an evilH7451 timeH6256.
SeekH1875 goodH2896, and not evilH7451, that ye may liveH2421: and so the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, shall be with you, as ye have spokenH559.
HateH8130 the evilH7451, and loveH157 the goodH2896, and establishH3322 judgmentH4941 in the gateH8179: it may be that the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635 will be graciousH2603 unto the remnantH7611 of JosephH3130.
Therefore the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, the LordH136, saithH559 thus; WailingH4553 shall be in all streetsH7339; and they shall sayH559 in all the highwaysH2351, AlasH1930! alasH1930! and they shall callH7121 the husbandmanH406 to mourningH60, and such as are skilfulH3045 of lamentationH5092 to wailingH4553.
And in all vineyardsH3754 shall be wailingH4553: for I will passH5674 throughH7130 thee, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
WoeH1945 unto you that desireH183 the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068! to what endH4100 is it for you? the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is darknessH2822, and not lightH216.
As if a manH376 did fleeH5127 fromH6440 a lionH738, and a bearH1677 metH6293 him; or wentH935 into the houseH1004, and leanedH5564 his handH3027 on the wallH7023, and a serpentH5175 bitH5391 him.
Shall not the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 be darknessH2822, and not lightH216? even very darkH651, and no brightnessH5051 in it?
I hateH8130, I despiseH3988 your feast daysH2282, and I will not smellH7306 in your solemn assembliesH6116. {in…: or, your holy days}
Though ye offerH5927 me burnt offeringsH5930 and your meat offeringsH4503, I will not acceptH7521 them: neither will I regardH5027 the peace offeringsH8002 of your fat beastsH4806. {peace…: or, thank offerings}
Take thou awayH5493 from me the noiseH1995 of thy songsH7892; for I will not hearH8085 the melodyH2172 of thy violsH5035.
But let judgmentH4941 run downH1556 as watersH4325, and righteousnessH6666 as a mightyH386 streamH5158. {run: Heb. roll}
Have ye offeredH5066 unto me sacrificesH2077 and offeringsH4503 in the wildernessH4057 fortyH705 yearsH8141, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478?
But ye have borneH5375 the tabernacleH5522 of your MolochH4428 and ChiunH3594 your imagesH6754, the starH3556 of your godH430, which ye madeH6213 to yourselves. {the tabernacle…: or, Siccuth your king}
Therefore will I cause you to go into captivityH1540 beyondH1973 DamascusH1834, saithH559 the LORDH3068, whose nameH8034 is The GodH430 of hostsH6635.
HearH8085 this wordH1697, ye kineH6510 of BashanH1316, that are in the mountainH2022 of SamariaH8111, which oppressH6231 the poorH1800, which crushH7533 the needyH34, which sayH559 to their mastersH113, BringH935, and let us drinkH8354.
HearH8085 ye this wordH1697 which I take upH5375 against you, even a lamentationH7015, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
