In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 cameH935 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 unto JerusalemH3389, and besiegedH6696 it.
And the LordH136 gaveH5414 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 into his handH3027, with partH7117 of the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of GodH430: which he carriedH935 into the landH776 of ShinarH8152 to the houseH1004 of his godH430; and he broughtH935 the vesselsH3627 into the treasureH214 houseH1004 of his godH430.
Men'sG444 hearts failing themG674 forG575 fearG5401, andG2532 for looking afterG4329 those things which are coming onG1904 the earthG3625: forG1063 the powersG1411 of heavenG3772 shall be shakenG4531.
RememberH2142 the daysH3117 of oldH5769, considerH995 the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755: askH7592 thy fatherH1, and he will shewH5046 thee; thy eldersH2205, and they will tellH559 thee. {many…: Heb. generation and generation}
When the most HighH5945 dividedH5157 to the nationsH1471 their inheritanceH5157, when he separatedH6504 the sonsH1121 of AdamH120, he setH5324 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971 according to the numberH4557 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
For the LORD'SH3068 portionH2506 is his peopleH5971; JacobH3290 is the lotH2256 of his inheritanceH5159. {lot: Heb. cord}
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.
Bring forthH3318 the blindH5787 peopleH5971 that haveH3426 eyesH5869, and the deafH2795 that have earsH241.
Let all the nationsH1471 be gatheredH6908 togetherH3162, and let the peopleH3816 be assembledH622: who among them can declareH5046 this, and shewH8085 us former thingsH7223? let them bring forthH5414 their witnessesH5707, that they may be justifiedH6663: or let them hearH8085, and sayH559, It is truthH571.
Ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and my servantH5650 whom I have chosenH977: that ye may knowH3045 and believeH539 me, and understandH995 that I am he: beforeH6440 me there was no GodH410 formedH3335, neither shall there be afterH310 me. {no…: or, nothing formed of God}
I, even I, am the LORDH3068; and besideH1107 me there is no saviourH3467.
I have declaredH5046, and have savedH3467, and I have shewedH8085, when there was no strangeH2114 god among you: therefore ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I am GodH410.
Yea, before the dayH3117 was I am he; and there is none that can deliverH5337 out of my handH3027: I will workH6466, and who shall letH7725 it? {let it: Heb. turn it back?}
So ManassehH4519 madeH8582 JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 to errH8582, and to doH6213 worseH7451 than the heathenH1471, whom the LORDH3068 had destroyedH8045 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
Moreover all the chiefH8269 of the priestsH3548, and the peopleH5971, transgressedH4603 veryH4604 muchH7235 after all the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471; and pollutedH2930 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 which he had hallowedH6942 in JerusalemH3389.
And the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1 sentH7971 to them byH3027 his messengersH4397, rising up betimesH7925, and sendingH7971; because he had compassionH2550 on his peopleH5971, and on his dwelling placeH4583: {by: Heb. by the hand of} {betimes: that is, continually and carefully}
But they mockedH3931 the messengersH4397 of GodH430, and despisedH959 his wordsH1697, and misusedH8591 his prophetsH5030, until the wrathH2534 of the LORDH3068 aroseH5927 against his peopleH5971, till there was no remedyH4832. {remedy: Heb. healing}
Therefore he broughtH5927 upon them the kingH4428 of the ChaldeesH3778, who slewH2026 their young menH970 with the swordH2719 in the houseH1004 of their sanctuaryH4720, and had no compassionH2550 upon young manH970 or maidenH1330, old manH2205, or him that stooped for ageH3486: he gaveH5414 them all into his handH3027.
And all the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, greatH1419 and smallH6996, and the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the kingH4428, and of his princesH8269; all these he broughtH935 to BabylonH894.
And they burntH8313 the houseH1004 of GodH430, and brake downH5422 the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389, and burntH8313 all the palacesH759 thereof with fireH784, and destroyedH7843 all the goodlyH4261 vesselsH3627 thereof.
And them that had escapedH7611 from the swordH2719 carried he awayH1540 to BabylonH894; where they were servantsH5650 to him and his sonsH1121 until the reignH4427 of the kingdomH4438 of PersiaH6539: {them…: Heb. the remainder from the sword}
And they burntH8313 the houseH1004 of GodH430, and brake downH5422 the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389, and burntH8313 all the palacesH759 thereof with fireH784, and destroyedH7843 all the goodlyH4261 vesselsH3627 thereof.
And them that had escapedH7611 from the swordH2719 carried he awayH1540 to BabylonH894; where they were servantsH5650 to him and his sonsH1121 until the reignH4427 of the kingdomH4438 of PersiaH6539: {them…: Heb. the remainder from the sword}
ThouH607, O kingH4430, art a kingH4430 of kingsH4430: for the GodH426 of heavenH8065 hath givenH3052 thee a kingdomH4437, powerH2632, and strengthH8632, and gloryH3367.
And wheresoeverH3606 the childrenH1123 of menH606 dwellH1753, the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251 and the fowlsH5776 of the heavenH8065 hath he givenH3052 into thine handH3028, and hath made thee rulerH7981 over them allH3606. ThouH607 art this headH7217 of goldH1722.
And at that timeH6256 shall MichaelH4317 stand upH5975, the greatH1419 princeH8269 which standethH5975 for the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971: and there shall beH1961 a timeH6256 of troubleH6869, such as never was since there was a nationH1471 even to that same timeH6256: and at that timeH6256 thy peopleH5971 shall be deliveredH4422, every one that shall be foundH4672 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612.
And manyH7227 of them that sleepH3463 in the dustH6083 of the earthH127 shall awakeH6974, some to everlastingH5769 lifeH2416, and some to shameH2781 and everlastingH5769 contemptH1860.
And they that be wiseH7919 shall shineH2094 as the brightnessH2096 of the firmamentH7549; and they that turn manyH7227 to righteousnessH6663 as the starsH3556 for everH5769 and everH5703. {wise: or, teachers}
But thou, O DanielH1840, shut upH5640 the wordsH1697, and sealH2856 the bookH5612, even to the timeH6256 of the endH7093: manyH7227 shall run to and froH7751, and knowledgeH1847 shall be increasedH7235.
Then I DanielH1840 lookedH7200, and, behold, there stoodH5975 otherH312 twoH8147, the oneH259 on this sideH2008 of the bankH8193 of the riverH2975, and the otherH259 on that side of the bankH8193 of the riverH2975. {bank: Heb. lip} {bank: Heb. lip}
And one saidH559 to the manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, which was uponH4605 the watersH4325 of the riverH2975, How long shall it be to the endH7093 of these wondersH6382? {upon…: or, from above}
And I heardH8085 the manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, which was uponH4605 the watersH4325 of the riverH2975, when he held upH7311 his right handH3225 and his left handH8040 unto heavenH8064, and swareH7650 by him that livethH2416 for everH5769 that it shall be for a timeH4150, timesH4150, and an halfH2677; and when he shall have accomplishedH3615 to scatterH5310 the powerH3027 of the holyH6944 peopleH5971, all these things shall be finishedH3615. {a time…: or, part}
And I heardH8085, but I understoodH995 not: then saidH559 I, O my LordH113, what shall be the endH319 of these things?
And he saidH559, Go thy wayH3212, DanielH1840: for the wordsH1697 are closed upH5640 and sealedH2856 till the timeH6256 of the endH7093.
ManyH7227 shall be purifiedH1305, and made whiteH3835, and triedH6884; but the wickedH7563 shall do wickedlyH7561: and none of the wickedH7563 shall understandH995; but the wiseH7919 shall understandH995.
And from the timeH6256 that the dailyH8548 sacrifice shall be taken awayH5493, and the abominationH8251 that maketh desolateH8074 set upH5414, there shall be a thousandH505 two hundredH3967 and ninetyH8673 daysH3117. {the abomination: Heb. to set up the abomination} {maketh…: or, astonisheth}
BlessedH835 is he that waitethH2442, and comethH5060 to the thousandH505 threeH7969 hundredH3967 and fiveH2568 and thirtyH7970 daysH3117.
But go thou thy wayH3212 till the endH7093 be: for thou shalt restH5117, and standH5975 in thy lotH1486 at the endH7093 of the daysH3117. {for thou: or, and thou, etc}
In the firstH2298 yearH8140 of BelshazzarH1113 kingH4430 of BabylonH895 DanielH1841 hadH2370 a dreamH2493 and visionsH2376 of his headH7217 uponH5922 his bedH4903: thenH116 he wroteH3790 the dreamH2493, and toldH560 the sumH7217 of the mattersH4406. {had: Cald. saw} {matters: or, words}
DanielH1841 spakeH6032 and saidH560, I sawH2370+H1934 in my visionH2376 byH5974 nightH3916, and, beholdH718, the fourH703 windsH7308 of the heavenH8065 stroveH1519 upon the greatH7229 seaH3221.
And fourH703 greatH7260 beastsH2423 came upH5559 fromH4481 the seaH3221, diverseH8133 oneH1668 fromH4481 anotherH1668.
The firstH6933 was like a lionH744, and had eagle'sH5403 wingsH1611: I beheldH1934+H2370 tillH5705 the wingsH1611 thereof were pluckedH4804, and it was lifted upH5191 fromH4481 the earthH772, and made standH6966 uponH5922 the feetH7271 as a manH606, and a man'sH606 heartH3825 was givenH3052 to it. {and it: or, wherewith it}
And beholdH718 anotherH317 beastH2423, a secondH8578, likeH1821 to a bearH1678, and it raised upH6966 itself on oneH2298 sideH7859, and it had threeH8532 ribsH5967 in the mouthH6433 of it betweenH997 the teethH8128 of it: and they saidH560 thusH3652 unto it, AriseH6966, devourH399 muchH7690 fleshH1321. {it raised…: or, it raised up one dominion}
AfterH870 thisH1836 I beheldH1934+H2370, and loH718 anotherH317, like a leopardH5245, which had uponH5922 the backH1355 of it fourH703 wingsH1611 of a fowlH5776; the beastH2423 had also fourH703 headsH7217; and dominionH7985 was givenH3052 to it.
AfterH870 thisH1836 I sawH1934+H2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, and beholdH718 a fourthH7244 beastH2423, dreadfulH1763 and terribleH574, and strongH8624 exceedinglyH3493; and it had greatH7260 ironH6523 teethH8128: it devouredH399 and brake in piecesH1855, and stampedH7512 the residueH7606 with the feetH7271 of it: and itH1932 was diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 the beastsH2423 that were beforeH6925 it; and it had tenH6236 hornsH7162.
I consideredH1934+H7920 the hornsH7162, and, beholdH431, there came upH5559 amongH997 them anotherH317 littleH2192 hornH7162, beforeH6925+H4481 whom there were threeH8532 ofH4481 the firstH6933 hornsH7162 plucked up by the rootsH6132: and, beholdH431, in thisH1668 hornH7162 were eyesH5870 like the eyesH5870 of manH606, and a mouthH6433 speakingH4449 great thingsH7260.
I beheldH1934+H2370 tillH5705 the thronesH3764 were cast downH7412, and the AncientH6268 of daysH3118 did sitH3488, whose garmentH3831 was whiteH2358 as snowH8517, and the hairH8177 of his headH7217 like the pureH5343 woolH6015: his throneH3764 was like the fieryH5135 flameH7631, and his wheelsH1535 as burningH1815 fireH5135.
A fieryH5135 streamH5103 issuedH5047 and came forthH5312 fromH4481 beforeH6925 him: thousandH506 thousandsH506 ministeredH8120 unto him, and ten thousandH7240 times ten thousandH7240 stoodH6966 beforeH6925 him: the judgmentH1780 was setH3488, and the booksH5609 were openedH6606.
I beheldH1934+H2370 thenH116 becauseH4481 of the voiceH7032 of the greatH7260 wordsH4406 which the hornH7162 spakeH4449: I beheldH1934+H2370 even tillH5705 the beastH2423 was slainH6992, and his bodyH1655 destroyedH7, and givenH3052 to the burningH3346 flameH785.
As concerning the restH7606 of the beastsH2423, they had their dominionH7985 taken awayH5709: yet their livesH2417 were prolongedH3052 forH5705 a seasonH2166 and timeH5732. {their lives…: Cald. a prolonging in life was given them}
I sawH1934+H2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, and, beholdH718, one like the SonH1247 of manH606 cameH858 withH5974 the cloudsH6050 of heavenH8065, and cameH4291 toH5705 the AncientH6268 of daysH3118, and they brought him nearH7127 beforeH6925 him.
And there was givenH3052 him dominionH7985, and gloryH3367, and a kingdomH4437, that allH3606 peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, should serveH6399 him: his dominionH7985 is an everlastingH5957 dominionH7985, which shall notH3809 pass awayH5709, and his kingdomH4437 that which shall notH3809 be destroyedH2255.
IH576 DanielH1841 was grievedH3735 in my spiritH7308 in the midstH1459 of my bodyH5085, and the visionsH2376 of my headH7217 troubledH927 me. {body: Cald. sheath}
I came nearH7127 untoH5922 oneH2298 ofH4481 them that stood byH6966, and askedH1156 himH4481 the truthH3330 of allH3606 thisH1836. So he toldH560 me, and made me knowH3046 the interpretationH6591 of the thingsH4406.
TheseH459 greatH7260 beastsH2423, whichH581 are fourH703, are fourH703 kingsH4430, which shall ariseH6966 out ofH4481 the earthH772.
But the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946 shall takeH6902 the kingdomH4437, and possessH2631 the kingdomH4437 forH5705 everH5957, even forH5705 everH5957 and everH5957. {most…: Cald. high ones, that is, things, or, places}
ThenH116 I wouldH6634 know the truthH3321 ofH5922 the fourthH7244 beastH2423, which wasH1934 diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 the others, exceedingH3493 dreadfulH1763, whose teethH8128 were of ironH6523, and his nailsH2953 of brassH5174; which devouredH399, brake in piecesH1855, and stampedH7512 the residueH7606 with his feetH7271; {from…: Cald. from all those}
And ofH5922 the tenH6236 hornsH7162 that were in his headH7217, and of the otherH317 which came upH5559, and beforeH4481+H6925 whom threeH8532 fellH5308; even of that hornH7162 thatH1797 had eyesH5870, and a mouthH6433 that spakeH4449 very great thingsH7260, whose lookH2376 was moreH4481 stoutH7229 thanH4481 his fellowsH2273.
I beheldH1934+H2370, and the sameH1797 hornH7162 madeH5648 warH7129 withH5974 the saintsH6922, and prevailedH3202 against them;
UntilH5705 the AncientH6268 of daysH3118 cameH858+H1768, and judgmentH1780 was givenH3052 to the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946; and the timeH2166 cameH4291 that the saintsH6922 possessedH2631 the kingdomH4437.
ThusH3652 he saidH560, The fourthH7244 beastH2423 shall beH1934 the fourthH7244 kingdomH4437 upon earthH772, which shall be diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 kingdomsH4437, and shall devourH399 the wholeH3606 earthH772, and shall tread it downH1759, and break it in piecesH1855.
And the tenH6236 hornsH7162 out ofH4481 this kingdomH4437 are tenH6236 kingsH4430 that shall ariseH6966: and anotherH321 shall riseH6966 afterH311 them; and he shall be diverseH8133 fromH4481 the firstH6933, and he shall subdueH8214 threeH8532 kingsH4430.
And he shall speakH4449 great wordsH4406 againstH6655 the most HighH5943, and shall wear outH1080 the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946, and thinkH5452 to changeH8133 timesH2166 and lawsH1882: and they shall be givenH3052 into his handH3028 untilH5705 a timeH5732 and timesH5732 and the dividingH6387 of timeH5732.
But the judgmentH1780 shall sitH3488, and they shall take awayH5709 his dominionH7985, to consumeH8046 and to destroyH7 it untoH5705 the endH5491.
And the kingdomH4437 and dominionH7985, and the greatnessH7238 of the kingdomH4437 underH8460 the wholeH3606 heavenH8065, shall be givenH3052 to the peopleH5972 of the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946, whose kingdomH4437 is an everlastingH5957 kingdomH4437, and allH3606 dominionsH7985 shall serveH6399 and obeyH8086 him. {dominions: or, rulers}
HithertoH5705+H3542 is the endH5491 of the matterH4406. As for meH576 DanielH1841, my cogitationsH7476 muchH7690 troubledH927 me, and my countenanceH2122 changedH8133 in meH5922: but I keptH5202 the matterH4406 in my heartH3821.
And there was givenH3052 him dominionH7985, and gloryH3367, and a kingdomH4437, that allH3606 peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, should serveH6399 him: his dominionH7985 is an everlastingH5957 dominionH7985, which shall notH3809 pass awayH5709, and his kingdomH4437 that which shall notH3809 be destroyedH2255.
And at that timeH6256 shall MichaelH4317 stand upH5975, the greatH1419 princeH8269 which standethH5975 for the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971: and there shall beH1961 a timeH6256 of troubleH6869, such as never was since there was a nationH1471 even to that same timeH6256: and at that timeH6256 thy peopleH5971 shall be deliveredH4422, every one that shall be foundH4672 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612.
And afterH310 threescoreH8346 and twoH8147 weeksH7620 shall MessiahH4899 be cut offH3772, but not for himself: and the peopleH5971 of the princeH5057 that shall comeH935 shall destroyH7843 the cityH5892 and the sanctuaryH6944; and the endH7093 thereof shall be with a floodH7858, and unto the endH7093 of the warH4421 desolationsH8074 are determinedH2782. {but…: or, and shall have nothing} {desolations…: or, it shall be cut off by desolations}
ComfortH5162 ye, comfortH5162 ye my peopleH5971, saithH559 your GodH430.
SpeakH1696 ye comfortablyH3820 to JerusalemH3389, and cryH7121 unto her, that her warfareH6635 is accomplishedH4390, that her iniquityH5771 is pardonedH7521: for she hath receivedH3947 of the LORD'SH3068 handH3027 doubleH3718 for all her sinsH2403. {comfortably: Heb. to the heart} {warfare: or, appointed time}
In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 cameH935 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 unto JerusalemH3389, and besiegedH6696 it.
And the LordH136 gaveH5414 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 into his handH3027, with partH7117 of the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of GodH430: which he carriedH935 into the landH776 of ShinarH8152 to the houseH1004 of his godH430; and he broughtH935 the vesselsH3627 into the treasureH214 houseH1004 of his godH430.
And the kingH4428 spakeH559 unto AshpenazH828 the masterH7227 of his eunuchsH5631, that he should bringH935 certain of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and of the king'sH4410 seedH2233, and of the princesH6579;
ChildrenH3206 in whom was no blemishH3971+H3971, but wellH2896 favouredH4758, and skilfulH7919 in all wisdomH2451, and cunningH3045 in knowledgeH1847, and understandingH995 scienceH4093, and such as had abilityH3581 in them to standH5975 in the king'sH4428 palaceH1964, and whom they might teachH3925 the learningH5612 and the tongueH3956 of the ChaldeansH3778.
And the kingH4428 appointedH4487 them a dailyH3117+H3117 provisionH1697 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598, and of the wineH3196 which he drankH4960: so nourishingH1431 them threeH7969 yearsH8141, that at the endH7117 thereof they might standH5975 beforeH6440 the kingH4428. {the wine…: Heb. the wine of his drink}
Now among these were of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, DanielH1840, HananiahH2608, MishaelH4332, and AzariahH5838:
Unto whom the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 gaveH7760 namesH8034: for he gaveH7760 unto DanielH1840 the name of BelteshazzarH1095; and to HananiahH2608, of ShadrachH7714; and to MishaelH4332, of MeshachH4335; and to AzariahH5838, of AbednegoH5664.
But DanielH1840 purposedH7760 in his heartH3820 that he would not defileH1351 himself with the portionH6598 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598, nor with the wineH3196 which he drankH4960: therefore he requestedH1245 of the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 that he might not defileH1351 himself.
Now GodH430 had broughtH5414 DanielH1840 into favourH2617 and tender loveH7356 withH6440 the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631.
And the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 saidH559 unto DanielH1840, I fearH3373 my lordH113 the kingH4428, who hath appointedH4487 your meatH3978 and your drinkH4960: for why should he seeH7200 your facesH6440 worse likingH2196 than the childrenH3206 which are of your sortH1524? then shall ye make me endangerH2325 my headH7218 to the kingH4428. {worse…: Heb. sadder} {sort: or, term, or, continuance?}
Then saidH559 DanielH1840 to MelzarH4453, whom the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 had setH4487 over DanielH1840, HananiahH2608, MishaelH4332, and AzariahH5838, {Melzar: or, the steward}
ProveH5254 thy servantsH5650, I beseech thee, tenH6235 daysH3117; and let them giveH5414 us pulseH2235 to eatH398, and waterH4325 to drinkH8354. {pulse: Heb. of pulse} {to eat…: Heb. that we may eat, etc}
Then let our countenancesH4758 be looked uponH7200 beforeH6440 thee, and the countenanceH4758 of the childrenH3206 that eatH398 of the portionH6598 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598: and as thou seestH7200, dealH6213 with thy servantsH5650.
So he consentedH8085 to them in this matterH1697, and provedH5254 them tenH6235 daysH3117.
And at the endH7117 of tenH6235 daysH3117 their countenancesH4758 appearedH7200 fairerH2896 and fatterH1277 in fleshH1320 than all the childrenH3206 which did eatH398 the portionH6598 of the king'sH4428 meatH6598.
Thus MelzarH4453 took awayH5375 the portion of their meatH6598, and the wineH3196 that they should drinkH4960; and gaveH5414 them pulseH2235.
As for these fourH702 childrenH3206, GodH430 gaveH5414 them knowledgeH4093 and skillH7919 in all learningH5612 and wisdomH2451: and DanielH1840 had understandingH995 in all visionsH2377 and dreamsH2472. {Daniel…: or, he made Daniel understand}
Now at the endH7117 of the daysH3117 that the kingH4428 had saidH559 he should bringH935 them in, then the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 broughtH935 them in beforeH6440 NebuchadnezzarH5019.
And the kingH4428 communedH1696 with them; and among them all was foundH4672 none like DanielH1840, HananiahH2608, MishaelH4332, and AzariahH5838: therefore stoodH5975 they beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
And in all mattersH1697 of wisdomH2451 and understandingH998, that the kingH4428 enquiredH1245 of them, he foundH4672 them ten timesH6235 betterH3027 than all the magiciansH2748 and astrologersH825 that were in all his realmH4438. {wisdom…: Heb. wisdom of understanding}
And DanielH1840 continued even unto the firstH259 yearH8141 of kingH4428 CyrusH3566.
Against him came upH5927 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and boundH631 him in fettersH5178, to carryH3212 him to BabylonH894. {fetters: or, chains}
NebuchadnezzarH5019 also carriedH935 of the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 to BabylonH894, and putH5414 them in his templeH1964 at BabylonH894.
And JehoiachinH3078 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 went outH3318 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, he, and his motherH517, and his servantsH5650, and his princesH8269, and his officersH5631: and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 tookH3947 him in the eighthH8083 yearH8141 of his reignH4427. {officers: or, eunuchs} {his reign: Nebuchadnezzar's eighth year}
And he carried outH3318 thence all the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and cut in piecesH7112 all the vesselsH3627 of goldH2091 which SolomonH8010 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had madeH6213 in the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696.
And he carried awayH1540 all JerusalemH3389, and all the princesH8269, and all the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, even tenH6235 thousandH505 captivesH1540, and all the craftsmenH2796 and smithsH4525: none remainedH7604, saveH2108 the poorest sortH1803 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
And he carried awayH1540 JehoiachinH3078 to BabylonH894, and the king'sH4428 motherH517, and the king'sH4428 wivesH802, and his officersH5631, and the mightyH352+H193 of the landH776, those carriedH3212 he into captivityH1473 from JerusalemH3389 to BabylonH894. {officers: or, eunuchs}
And all the menH582 of mightH2428, even sevenH7651 thousandH505, and craftsmenH2796 and smithsH4525 a thousandH505, all that were strongH1368 and aptH6213 for warH4421, even them the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 broughtH935 captiveH1473 to BabylonH894.
And it came to pass in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, that NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935, he, and all his hostH2428, against JerusalemH3389, and pitchedH2583 against it; and they builtH1129 fortsH1785 against it round aboutH5439.
And the cityH5892 was besiegedH935+H4692 unto the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667.
And on the ninthH8672 day of the fourth monthH2320 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 in the cityH5892, and there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
And the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fled by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between two wallsH2346, which is by the king'sH4428 gardenH1588: (now the ChaldeesH3778 were against the cityH5892 round aboutH5439:) and the king wentH3212 the wayH1870 toward the plainH6160.
And the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778 pursuedH7291 afterH310 the kingH4428, and overtookH5381 him in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405: and all his armyH2428 were scatteredH6327 from him.
So they tookH8610 the kingH4428, and brought him upH5927 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247; and they gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him. {gave…: Heb. spake judgment with him}
And they slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869, and put outH5786 the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667, and boundH631 him with fettersH5178 of brassH5178, and carriedH935 him to BabylonH894. {put…: Heb. made blind}
And in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, on the seventhH7651 day of the monthH2320, which is the nineteenthH8672+H6240+H8141 yearH8141 of kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, a servantH5650 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, unto JerusalemH3389: {captain…: or, chief marshal}
And he burntH8313 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and all the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and every greatH1419 man's houseH1004 burntH8313 he with fireH784.
And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, brake downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round aboutH5439.
Now the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 that were leftH7604 in the cityH5892, and the fugitivesH5307 that fell awayH5307 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, with the remnantH3499 of the multitudeH1995, did NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carry awayH1540. {fugitives: Heb. fallen away}
But the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 of the poorH1803 of the landH776 to be vinedressersH3755 and husbandmenH3009+H1461.
And the pillarsH5982 of brassH5178 that were in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the basesH4350, and the brasenH5178 seaH3220 that was in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, did the ChaldeesH3778 break in piecesH7665, and carriedH5375 the brassH5178 of them to BabylonH894.
And the potsH5518, and the shovelsH3257, and the snuffersH4212, and the spoonsH3709, and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 wherewith they ministeredH8334, took they awayH3947.
And the firepansH4289, and the bowlsH4219, and such things as were of goldH2091, in goldH2091, and of silverH3701, in silverH3701, the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 took awayH3947.
The twoH8147 pillarsH5982, oneH259 seaH3220, and the basesH4350 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; the brassH5178 of all these vesselsH3627 was withoutH3808 weightH4948. {one…: Heb. the one sea}
The heightH6967 of the oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteenH8083+H6240 cubitsH520, and the chapiterH3805 upon it was brassH5178: and the heightH6967 of the chapiterH3805 threeH7969 cubitsH520; and the wreathen workH7639, and pomegranatesH7416 upon the chapiterH3805 round aboutH5439, all of brassH5178: and like unto these had the secondH8145 pillarH5982 with wreathen workH7639.
And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priestH3548, and the threeH7969 keepersH8104 of the doorH5592: {door: Heb. threshold}
And out of the cityH5892 he tookH3947 anH259 officerH5631 that was setH6496 over the menH582 of warH4421, and fiveH2568 menH582 of them that wereH7200 in the king'sH4428 presenceH6440, which were foundH4672 in the cityH5892, and the principalH8269 scribeH5608 of the hostH6635, which musteredH6633 the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and threescoreH8346 menH376 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776 that were foundH4672 in the cityH5892: {officer: or, eunuch} {were in…: Heb. saw the king's face} {principal…: or, scribe of the captain of the host}
And NebuzaradanH5018 captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 these, and broughtH3212 them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247:
And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 them, and slewH4191 them at RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574. So JudahH3063 was carried awayH1540 out of their landH127.
Then I turnedH7725, and lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869, and lookedH7200, and behold a flyingH5774 rollH4039.
And he saidH559 unto me, What seestH7200 thou? And I answeredH559, I seeH7200 a flyingH5774 rollH4039; the lengthH753 thereof is twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof tenH6235 cubitsH520.
Then saidH559 he unto me, This is the curseH423 that goeth forthH3318 over the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776: for every one that stealethH1589 shall be cut offH5352 as on this side accordingH3644 to it; and every one that swearethH7650 shall be cut offH5352 as on that side accordingH3644 to it. {every one that stealeth…: or, every one of this people that stealeth holdeth himself guiltless, as it doth}
I will bring it forthH3318, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and it shall enterH935 into the houseH1004 of the thiefH1590, and into the houseH1004 of him that swearethH7650 falselyH8267 by my nameH8034: and it shall remainH3885 in the midstH8432 of his houseH1004, and shall consumeH3615 it with the timberH6086 thereof and the stonesH68 thereof.
Then the angelH4397 that talkedH1696 with me went forthH3318, and saidH559 unto me, Lift upH5375 now thine eyesH5869, and seeH7200 what is this that goeth forthH3318.
And I saidH559, What is it? And he saidH559, This is an ephahH374 that goeth forthH3318. He saidH559 moreover, This is their resemblanceH5869 through all the earthH776.
And, behold, there was lifted upH5375 a talentH3603 of leadH5777: and this is aH259 womanH802 that sittethH3427 in the midstH8432 of the ephahH374. {talent: or, weighty piece}
And he saidH559, This is wickednessH7564. And he castH7993 it into the midstH8432 of the ephahH374; and he castH7993 the weightH68 of leadH5777 upon the mouthH6310 thereof.
Then lifted I upH5375 mine eyesH5869, and lookedH7200, and, behold, there came outH3318 twoH8147 womenH802, and the windH7307 was in their wingsH3671; for they hadH2007 wingsH3671 like the wingsH3671 of a storkH2624: and they lifted upH5375 the ephahH374 between the earthH776 and the heavenH8064.
Then saidH559 I to the angelH4397 that talkedH1696 with me, Whither do these bearH3212 the ephahH374?
And he saidH559 unto me, To buildH1129 it an houseH1004 in the landH776 of ShinarH8152: and it shall be establishedH3559, and setH3240 there upon her own baseH4369.
