NowG1161 ofG1909 the things which we have spokenG3004 this is the sumG2774: We haveG2192 suchG5108 an high priestG749, whoG3739 is setG2523 onG1722 the right handG1188 of the throneG2362 of the MajestyG3172 inG1722 the heavensG3772;
A ministerG3011 of the sanctuaryG39, andG2532 of the trueG228 tabernacleG4633, whichG3739 the LordG2962 pitchedG4078, andG2532 notG3756 manG444. {of the sanctuary: or, of holy things}
ForG1063 everyG3956 high priestG749 is ordainedG2525 toG1519 offerG4374 giftsG1435 andG5037+G2532 sacrificesG2378: whereforeG3606 it is of necessityG316 that this manG5126 haveG2192 somewhatG5100 alsoG2532 toG3739 offerG4374.
ForG1063 ifG1487+G3303 he wereG2258 onG1909 earthG1093, he shouldG302 notG3761 beG2258 a priestG2409, seeing that there areG5607 priestsG2409 that offerG4374 giftsG1435 accordingG2596 to the lawG3551: {there…: or, they are priests}
WhoG3748 serveG3000 unto the exampleG5262 andG2532 shadowG4639 of heavenly thingsG2032, asG2531 MosesG3475 was admonished of GodG5537 when he was aboutG3195 to makeG2005 the tabernacleG4633: forG1063, SeeG3708, saith heG5346, that thou makeG4160 all thingsG3956 according toG2596 the patternG5179 shewedG1166 to theeG4671 inG1722 the mountG3735.
ButG1161 nowG3570 hath he obtainedG5177 a more excellentG1313 ministryG3009, by how muchG3745 alsoG2532 he isG2076 the mediatorG3316 of a betterG2909 covenantG1242, whichG3748 was establishedG3549 uponG1909 betterG2909 promisesG1860. {covenant: or, testament}
InG1722 the beginningG746 wasG2258 the WordG3056, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 withG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 the WordG3056 wasG2258 GodG2316.
The sameG3778 wasG2258 inG1722 the beginningG746 withG4314 GodG2316.
All thingsG3956 were madeG1096 byG1223 himG846; andG2532 withoutG5565 himG846 wasG1096 notG3761 any thingG1520 madeG1096 thatG3739 was madeG1096.
InG1722 himG846 wasG2258 lifeG2222; andG2532 the lifeG2222 wasG2258 the lightG5457 of menG444.
AndG2532 the lightG5457 shinethG5316 inG1722 darknessG4653; andG2532 the darknessG4653 comprehendedG2638 itG846 notG3756. {comprehended: or, did not admit, or, receive}
There wasG1096 a manG444 sentG649 fromG3844 GodG2316, whoseG846 nameG3686 was JohnG2491.
The sameG3778 cameG2064 forG1519 a witnessG3141, toG2443 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 the LightG5457, thatG2443 allG3956 men throughG1223 himG846 might believeG4100.
He wasG2258 notG3756 thatG1565 LightG5457, butG235 was sent toG2443 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 that LightG5457.
That wasG2258 the trueG228 LightG5457, whichG3739 lightethG5461 every manG3956+G444 that comethG2064 intoG1519 the worldG2889.
He wasG2258 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 the worldG2889 was madeG1096 byG1223 himG846, andG2532 the worldG2889 knewG1097 himG846 notG3756.
He cameG2064 untoG1519 his ownG2398, andG2532 his ownG2398 receivedG3880 himG846 notG3756.
ButG1161 as many asG3745 receivedG2983 himG846, to themG846 gave heG1325 powerG1849 to becomeG1096 the sonsG5043 of GodG2316, even to them that believeG4100 onG1519 hisG846 nameG3686: {power: or, the right, or, privilege}
WhichG3739 were bornG1080, notG3756 ofG1537 bloodG129, norG3761 ofG1537 the willG2307 of the fleshG4561, norG3761 ofG1537 the willG2307 of manG435, butG235 ofG1537 GodG2316.
AndG2532 the WordG3056 was madeG1096 fleshG4561, andG2532 dweltG4637 amongG1722 usG2254, (andG2532 we beheldG2300 hisG846 gloryG1391, the gloryG1391 asG5613 of the only begottenG3439 ofG3844 the FatherG3962,) fullG4134 of graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225.
JohnG2491 bare witnessG3140 ofG4012 himG846, andG2532 criedG2896, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 was heG2258 of whomG3739 I spakeG2036, He that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450: forG3754 he wasG2258 beforeG4413 meG3450.
AndG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 fulnessG4138 haveG2983 allG3956 weG2249 receivedG2983, andG2532 graceG5485 forG473 graceG5485.
ForG3754 the lawG3551 was givenG1325 byG1223 MosesG3475, but graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225 cameG1096 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
No manG3762 hath seenG3708 GodG2316 at any timeG4455; the only begottenG3439 SonG5207, whichG3588 isG5607 inG1519 the bosomG2859 of the FatherG3962, heG1565 hath declaredG1834 him.
AndG2532 thisG3778 isG2076 the recordG3141 of JohnG2491, whenG3753 the JewsG2453 sentG649 priestsG2409 andG2532 LevitesG3019 fromG1537 JerusalemG2414 toG2443 askG2065 himG846, WhoG5101 artG1488 thouG4771?
AndG2532 he confessedG3670, andG2532 deniedG720 notG3756; butG2532 confessedG3670+G3754, IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 the ChristG5547.
AndG2532 they askedG2065 himG846, WhatG5101 thenG3767? ArtG1488 thouG4771 EliasG2243? AndG2532 he saithG3004, I amG1510 notG3756. ArtG1488 thouG4771 that prophetG4396? AndG2532 he answeredG611, NoG3756. {that prophet: or, a prophet?}
ThenG3767 said theyG2036 unto himG846, WhoG5101 art thouG1488? thatG2443 we may giveG1325 an answerG612 to them that sentG3992 usG2248. WhatG5101 sayest thouG3004 ofG4012 thyselfG4572?
He saidG5346, IG1473 am the voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Make straightG2116 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, asG2531 saidG2036 the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268.
AndG2532 they whichG3588 were sentG649 wereG2258 ofG1537 the PhariseesG5330.
AndG2532 they askedG2065 himG846, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, WhyG5101 baptizest thouG907 thenG3767, ifG1487 thouG4771 beG1488 notG3756 that ChristG5547, norG3777 EliasG2243, neitherG3777 that prophetG4396?
JohnG2491 answeredG611 themG846, sayingG3004, IG1473 baptizeG907 withG1722 waterG5204: butG1161 there standeth oneG2476 amongG3319 youG5216, whomG3739 yeG5210 knowG1492 notG3756;
HeG846 it isG2076, whoG3739 comingG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450, whoseG3739+G846 shoe'sG5266 latchetG2438 IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 toG2443 unlooseG3089.
These thingsG5023 were doneG1096 inG1722 BethabaraG962 beyondG4008 JordanG2446, whereG3699 JohnG2491 wasG2258 baptizingG907.
The next dayG1887 JohnG2491 seethG991 JesusG2424 comingG2064 untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 saithG3004, BeholdG2396 the LambG286 of GodG2316, whichG3588 taketh awayG142 the sinG266 of the worldG2889. {taketh away: or, beareth}
ThisG3778 is heG2076 ofG4012 whomG3739 IG1473 saidG2036, AfterG3694 meG3450 comethG2064 a manG435 whichG3739 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450: forG3754 he wasG2258 beforeG4413 meG3450.
And IG2504 knewG1492 himG846 notG3756: butG235 thatG2443 he should be made manifestG5319 to IsraelG2474, thereforeG1223+G5124 amG2064 IG1473 comeG2064 baptizingG907 withG1722 waterG5204.
AndG2532 JohnG2491 bare recordG3140, sayingG3004+G3754, I sawG2300 the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772 likeG5616 a doveG4058, andG2532 it abodeG3306 uponG1909 himG846.
And IG2504 knewG1492 himG846 notG3756: butG235 he that sentG3992 meG3165 to baptizeG907 withG1722 waterG5204, the sameG1565 saidG2036 unto meG3427, UponG1909 whomG3739+G302 thou shalt seeG1492 the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597, andG2532 remainingG3306 onG1909 himG846, the sameG3778 isG2076 he which baptizethG907 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
And IG2504 sawG3708, andG2532 bare recordG3140 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
AgainG3825 the next day afterG1887 JohnG2491 stoodG2476, andG2532 twoG1417 ofG1537 hisG846 disciplesG3101;
AndG2532 looking uponG1689 JesusG2424 as he walkedG4043, he saithG3004, BeholdG2396 the LambG286 of GodG2316!
AndG2532 the twoG1417 disciplesG3101 heardG191 himG846 speakG2980, andG2532 they followedG190 JesusG2424.
ThenG1161 JesusG2424 turnedG4762, andG2532 sawG2300 themG846 followingG190, and saithG3004 unto themG846, WhatG5101 seek yeG2212+G1161? They saidG2036 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, (whichG3739 is to sayG3004, being interpretedG2059, MasterG1320,) whereG4226 dwellest thouG3306? {dwellest: or, abidest}
He saithG3004 unto themG846, ComeG2064 andG2532 seeG1492. They cameG2064 andG2532 sawG1492 whereG4226 he dweltG3306, andG2532 abodeG3306 withG3844 himG846 thatG1565 dayG2250: forG1161 it wasG2258 aboutG5613 the tenthG1182 hourG5610. {about…: that was two hours before night}
OneG1520 ofG1537 the twoG1417 whichG3588 heardG191+G3844 JohnG2491 speak, andG2532 followedG190 himG846, wasG2258 AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter'sG4074 brotherG80.
HeG3778 firstG4413 findethG2147 his ownG2398 brotherG80 SimonG4613, andG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, We have foundG2147 the MessiasG3323, whichG3739 isG2076, being interpretedG3177, the ChristG5547. {the Christ: or, the Anointed}
AndG2532 he broughtG71 himG846 toG4314 JesusG2424. AndG1161 when JesusG2424 beheldG1689 himG846, he saidG2036, ThouG4771 artG1488 SimonG4613 the sonG5207 of JonaG2495: thouG4771 shalt be calledG2564 CephasG2786, whichG3739 is by interpretationG2059, A stoneG4074.
The day followingG1887 JesusG2424 wouldG2309 go forthG1831 intoG1519 GalileeG1056, andG2532 findethG2147 PhilipG5376, andG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, FollowG190 meG3427.
NowG1161 PhilipG5376 wasG2258 ofG575 BethsaidaG966, the cityG4172 ofG1537 AndrewG406 andG2532 PeterG4074.
PhilipG5376 findethG2147 NathanaelG3482, andG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, We have foundG2147 him, of whomG3739 MosesG3475 inG1722 the lawG3551, andG2532 the prophetsG4396, did writeG1125, JesusG2424 ofG575 NazarethG3478, the sonG5207 of JosephG2501.
AndG2532 NathanaelG3482 saidG2036 unto himG846, CanG1410 there anyG5100 good thingG18 comeG1511 out ofG1537 NazarethG3478? PhilipG5376 saithG3004 unto himG846, ComeG2064 andG2532 seeG1492.
JesusG2424 sawG1492 NathanaelG3482 comingG2064 toG4314 himG846, andG2532 saithG3004 ofG4012 himG846, BeholdG2396 an IsraeliteG2475 indeedG230, inG1722 whomG3739 isG2076 noG3756 guileG1388!
NathanaelG3482 saithG3004 unto himG846, WhenceG4159 knowest thouG1097 meG3165? JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, BeforeG4253 that PhilipG5376 calledG5455 theeG4571, when thou wastG5607 underG5259 the fig treeG4808, I sawG1492 theeG4571.
NathanaelG3482 answeredG611 andG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, thouG4771 artG1488 the SonG5207 of GodG2316; thouG4771 artG1488 the KingG935 of IsraelG2474.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, BecauseG3754 I saidG2036 unto theeG4671, I sawG1492 theeG4571 underG5270 the fig treeG4808, believest thouG4100? thou shalt seeG3700 greater thingsG3187 than theseG5130.
AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto himG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, HereafterG737+G575 ye shall seeG3700 heavenG3772 openG455, andG2532 the angelsG32 of GodG2316 ascendingG305 andG2532 descendingG2597 uponG1909 the SonG5207 of manG444.
The bookG976 of the generationG1078 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the sonG5207 of DavidG1138, the sonG5207 of AbrahamG11.

AndG1161 JosiasG2502 begatG1080 JechoniasG2423 andG2532 hisG846 brethrenG80, about the timeG1909 they were carried awayG3350 to BabylonG897: {Josias…: some read, Josias begat Jakim, and Jakim begat Jechonias}
AndG1161 afterG3326 they were broughtG3350 to BabylonG897, JechoniasG2423 begatG1080 SalathielG4528; andG1161 SalathielG4528 begatG1080 ZorobabelG2216;
AndG1161 ZorobabelG2216 begatG1080 AbiudG10; andG1161 AbiudG10 begatG1080 EliakimG1662; andG1161 EliakimG1662 begatG1080 AzorG107;
AndG1161 AzorG107 begatG1080 SadocG4524; andG1161 SadocG4524 begatG1080 AchimG885; andG1161 AchimG885 begatG1080 EliudG1664;
AndG1161 EliudG1664 begatG1080 EleazarG1648; andG1161 EleazarG1648 begatG1080 MatthanG3157; andG1161 MatthanG3157 begatG1080 JacobG2384;
AndG1161 JacobG2384 begatG1080 JosephG2501 the husbandG435 of MaryG3137, ofG1537 whomG3739 was bornG1080 JesusG2424, whoG3588 is calledG3004 ChristG5547.
SoG3767 allG3956 the generationsG1074 fromG575 AbrahamG11 toG2193 DavidG1138 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074; andG2532 fromG575 DavidG1138 untilG2193 the carrying awayG3350 into BabylonG897 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074; andG2532 fromG575 the carrying awayG3350 into BabylonG897 untoG2193 ChristG5547 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074.
NowG1161 the birthG1083 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG2258 on this wiseG3779: When asG1063 hisG846 motherG3384 MaryG3137 was espousedG3423 to JosephG2501, beforeG4250+G2228 theyG846 came togetherG4905, she was foundG2147 with childG1722+G1064+G2192 ofG1537 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ThenG1161 JosephG2501 herG846 husbandG435, beingG5607 a justG1342 man, andG2532 notG3361 willingG2309 to makeG3856 herG846 a publick exampleG3856, was mindedG1014 to putG630 herG846 awayG630 privilyG2977.
ButG1161 while heG846 thought onG1760 these thingsG5023, beholdG2400, the angelG32 of the LordG2962 appearedG5316 unto himG846 inG2596 a dreamG3677, sayingG3004, JosephG2501, thou sonG5207 of DavidG1138, fearG5399 notG3361 to takeG3880 unto theeG4675 MaryG3137 thy wifeG1135: forG1063 that which is conceivedG1080 inG1722 herG846 isG2076 ofG1537 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {conceived: Gr. begotten}
AndG1161 she shall bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 thou shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424: forG1063 heG846 shall saveG4982 hisG846 peopleG2992 fromG575 theirG846 sinsG266. {JESUS: that is, Saviour, Heb}
NowG1161 allG3650 thisG5124 was doneG1096, thatG2443 it might be fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 was spokenG4483 ofG5259 the LordG2962 byG1223 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004,
BeholdG2400, a virginG3933 shall be with childG1722+G1064+G2192, andG2532 shall bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 they shall callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 EmmanuelG1694, whichG3739 being interpretedG3177 isG2076, GodG2316 withG3326 usG2257. {they…: or, his name shall be called}
ThenG1161 JosephG2501 being raisedG1326 fromG575 sleepG5258 didG4160 asG5613 the angelG32 of the LordG2962 had biddenG4367 himG846, andG2532 tookG3880 unto himG846 his wifeG1135:
AndG2532 knewG1097 herG846 notG3756 tillG2193+G3739 she had brought forthG5088 herG846 firstbornG4416 sonG5207: andG2532 he calledG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 a newG2537 heavenG3772 andG2532 a newG2537 earthG1093: forG1063 the firstG4413 heavenG3772 andG2532 the firstG4413 earthG1093 were passed awayG3928; andG2532 there wasG2076 noG3756 moreG2089 seaG2281.
ForG1063 ifG1487 thatG1565 firstG4413 covenant had beenG2258 faultlessG273, then shouldG302 noG3756 placeG5117 have been soughtG2212 for the secondG1208.
ForG1063 finding faultG3201 with themG846, he saithG3004, BeholdG2400, the daysG2250 comeG2064, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whenG2532 I will makeG4931 a newG2537 covenantG1242 withG1909 the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 andG2532 withG1909 the houseG3624 of JudahG2455:
NotG3756 according toG2596 the covenantG1242 thatG3739 I made withG4160 theirG846 fathersG3962 inG1722 the dayG2250 when I tookG1949 themG846 by the handG3450+G5495 to leadG1806 themG846 out ofG1537 the landG1093 of EgyptG125; becauseG3754 theyG846 continuedG1696 notG3756 inG1722 myG3450 covenantG1242, and IG2504 regardedG272 themG846 notG272, saithG3004 the LordG2962.
ForG3754 thisG3778 is the covenantG1242 thatG3739 I will makeG1303 with the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 afterG3326 thoseG1565 daysG2250, saithG3004 the LordG2962; I will putG1325 myG3450 lawsG3551 intoG1519 theirG846 mindG1271, andG2532 writeG1924 themG846 inG1909 theirG846 heartsG2588: andG2532 I will beG2071 toG1519 themG846 a GodG2316, andG2532 theyG846 shall beG2071 toG1519 meG3427 a peopleG2992: {put: Gr. give} {in: or, upon}
AndG2532 they shallG1321 notG3364 teachG1321 every manG1538 hisG846 neighbourG4139, andG2532 every manG1538 hisG846 brotherG80, sayingG3004, KnowG1097 the LordG2962: forG3754 allG3956 shall knowG1492 meG3165, fromG575 the leastG3398+G846 toG2193 the greatestG3173+G846.
ForG3754 I will beG2071 mercifulG2436 to theirG846 unrighteousnessG93, andG2532 theirG846 sinsG266 andG2532 theirG846 iniquitiesG458 will I rememberG3415 noG3364 moreG2089.
InG1722 that he saithG3004, A newG2537 covenant, he hath madeG3822 the firstG4413 oldG3822. NowG1161 that which decayethG3822 andG2532 waxeth oldG1095 is readyG1451 to vanish awayG854.
CursedH779 be he that confirmethH6965 not all the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 to doH6213 them. And all the peopleH5971 shall sayH559, AmenH543.
ForG1063 as many asG3745 areG1526 ofG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551 areG1526 underG5259 the curseG2671: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, CursedG1944 is every oneG3956 thatG3739 continuethG1696 notG3756 inG1722 all thingsG3956 whichG3588 are writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG975 of the lawG3551 to doG4160 themG846.
Ye have seenH7200 what I didH6213 unto the EgyptiansH4714, and how I bareH5375 you on eagles'H5404 wingsH3671, and broughtH935 you unto myself.
Not according to the covenantH1285 that I madeH3772 with their fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I tookH2388 them by the handH3027 to bring them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714; which my covenantH1285 they brakeH6565, although I was an husbandH1166 unto them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: {although…: or, should I have continued an husband unto them?}
Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, cause JerusalemH3389 to knowH3045 her abominationsH8441,
And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 unto JerusalemH3389; Thy birthH4351 and thy nativityH4138 is of the landH776 of CanaanH3669; thy fatherH1 was an AmoriteH567, and thy motherH517 an HittiteH2850. {birth: Heb. cutting out, or, habitation}
And as for thy nativityH4138, in the dayH3117 thou wast bornH3205 thy navelH8270 was not cutH3772, neither wast thou washedH7364 in waterH4325 to suppleH4935 thee; thou wast not saltedH4414 at allH4414, nor swaddledH2853 at allH2853. {to supple…: or, when I looked upon thee}
None eyeH5869 pitiedH2347 thee, to doH6213 anyH259 of these unto thee, to have compassionH2550 upon thee; but thou wast cast outH7993 in the openH6440 fieldH7704, to the lothingH1604 of thy personH5315, in the dayH3117 that thou wast bornH3205.
And when I passedH5674 by thee, and sawH7200 thee pollutedH947 in thine own bloodH1818, I saidH559 unto thee when thou wast in thy bloodH1818, LiveH2421; yea, I saidH559 unto thee when thou wast in thy bloodH1818, LiveH2421. {polluted: or, trodden under foot}
I have causedH5414 thee to multiplyH7233 as the budH6780 of the fieldH7704, and thou hast increasedH7235 and waxen greatH1431, and thou art comeH935 to excellentH5716 ornamentsH5716: thy breastsH7699 are fashionedH3559, and thine hairH8181 is grownH6779, whereas thou wast nakedH5903 and bareH6181. {caused…: Heb. made thee a million} {excellent…: Heb. ornament of ornaments}
Now when I passedH5674 by thee, and lookedH7200 upon thee, behold, thy timeH6256 was the timeH6256 of loveH1730; and I spreadH6566 my skirtH3671 over thee, and coveredH3680 thy nakednessH6172: yea, I swareH7650 unto thee, and enteredH935 into a covenantH1285 with thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, and thou becamest mine.
Then washedH7364 I thee with waterH4325; yea, I throughly washed awayH7857 thy bloodH1818 from thee, and I anointedH5480 thee with oilH8081. {blood: Heb. bloods}
I clothedH3847 thee also with broidered workH7553, and shodH5274 thee with badgers' skinH8476, and I girdedH2280 thee about with fine linenH8336, and I coveredH3680 thee with silkH4897.
I deckedH5710 thee also with ornamentsH5716, and I putH5414 braceletsH6781 upon thy handsH3027, and a chainH7242 on thy neckH1627.
And I putH5414 a jewelH5141 on thy foreheadH639, and earringsH5694 in thine earsH241, and a beautifulH8597 crownH5850 upon thine headH7218. {forehead: Heb. nose}
Thus wast thou deckedH5710 with goldH2091 and silverH3701; and thy raimentH4403 was of fine linenH8336+H8336, and silkH4897, and broidered workH7553; thou didst eatH398 fine flourH5560, and honeyH1706, and oilH8081: and thou wast exceedingH3966 beautifulH3302, and thou didst prosperH6743 into a kingdomH4410.
And thy renownH8034 went forthH3318 among the heathenH1471 for thy beautyH3308: for it was perfectH3632 through my comelinessH1926, which I had putH7760 upon thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
But thou didst trustH982 in thine own beautyH3308, and playedst the harlotH2181 because of thy renownH8034, and pouredst outH8210 thy fornicationsH8457 on every one that passed byH5674; his it was.
And of thy garmentsH899 thou didst takeH3947, and deckedstH6213 thy high placesH1116 with divers coloursH2921, and playedst the harlotH2181 thereupon: the like things shall not comeH935, neither shall it be so.
Thou hast also takenH3947 thy fairH8597 jewelsH3627 of my goldH2091 and of my silverH3701, which I had givenH5414 thee, and madestH6213 to thyself imagesH6754 of menH2145, and didst commit whoredomH2181 with them, {of men: Heb. of a male}
And tookestH3947 thy broideredH7553 garmentsH899, and coveredstH3680 them: and thou hast setH5414 mine oilH8081 and mine incenseH7004 beforeH6440 them.
My meatH3899 also which I gaveH5414 thee, fine flourH5560, and oilH8081, and honeyH1706, wherewith I fedH398 thee, thou hast even setH5414 it beforeH6440 them for a sweetH5207 savourH7381: and thus it was, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {a sweet…: Heb. a savour of rest}
Moreover thou hast takenH3947 thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323, whom thou hast borneH3205 unto me, and these hast thou sacrificedH2076 unto them to be devouredH398. Is this of thy whoredomsH8457 a small matterH4592, {to be…: Heb. to devour}
That thou hast slainH7819 my childrenH1121, and deliveredH5414 them to cause them to pass throughH5674 the fire for them?
And in all thine abominationsH8441 and thy whoredomsH8457 thou hast not rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, when thou wast nakedH5903 and bareH6181, and wast pollutedH947 in thy bloodH1818.
And it came to pass afterH310 all thy wickednessH7451, (woeH188, woeH188 unto thee! saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069;)
That thou hast also builtH1129 unto thee an eminent placeH1354, and hast madeH6213 thee an high placeH7413 in every streetH7339. {eminent…: or, brothel house}
Thou hast builtH1129 thy high placeH7413 at every headH7218 of the wayH1870, and hast made thy beautyH3308 to be abhorredH8581, and hast openedH6589 thy feetH7272 to every one that passed byH5674, and multipliedH7235 thy whoredomsH8457.
Thou hast also committed fornicationH2181 with the EgyptiansH1121+H4714 thy neighboursH7934, greatH1432 of fleshH1320; and hast increasedH7235 thy whoredomsH8457, to provoke me to angerH3707.
Behold, therefore I have stretched outH5186 my handH3027 over thee, and have diminishedH1639 thine ordinaryH2706 food, and deliveredH5414 thee unto the willH5315 of them that hateH8130 thee, the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430, which are ashamedH3637 of thy lewdH2154 wayH1870. {daughters: or, cities}
Thou hast played the whoreH2181 also with the AssyriansH1121+H804, becauseH1115 thou wast unsatiableH7646; yea, thou hast played the harlotH2181 with them, and yet couldest not be satisfiedH7654.
Thou hast moreover multipliedH7235 thy fornicationH8457 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667 unto ChaldeaH3778; and yet thou wast not satisfiedH7646 herewithH2063.
How weakH535 is thine heartH3826, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, seeing thou doestH6213 all these things, the workH4639 of an imperiousH7986 whorishH2181 womanH802;
In that thou buildestH1129 thine eminent placeH1354 in the headH7218 of every wayH1870, and makestH6213 thine high placeH7413 in every streetH7339; and hast not been as an harlotH2181, in that thou scornestH7046 hireH868; {In that thou buildest…: or, In thy daughters is thine, etc}
But as a wifeH802 that committeth adulteryH5003, which takethH3947 strangersH2114 instead of her husbandH376!
They giveH5414 giftsH5078 to all whoresH2181: but thou givestH5414 thy giftsH5083 to all thy loversH157, and hirestH7809 them, that they may comeH935 unto thee on every sideH5439 for thy whoredomH8457. {hirest: Heb. bribest}
And the contraryH2016 is in thee from other womenH802 in thy whoredomsH8457, whereas none followethH310 thee to commit whoredomsH2181: and in that thou givestH5414 a rewardH868, and no rewardH868 is givenH5414 unto thee, therefore thou artH1961 contraryH2016.
Wherefore, O harlotH2181, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068:
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thy filthinessH5178 was poured outH8210, and thy nakednessH6172 discoveredH1540 through thy whoredomsH8457 with thy loversH157, and with all the idolsH1544 of thy abominationsH8441, and by the bloodH1818 of thy childrenH1121, which thou didst giveH5414 unto them;
Behold, therefore I will gatherH6908 all thy loversH157, with whom thou hast taken pleasureH6149, and all them that thou hast lovedH157, with all them that thou hast hatedH8130; I will even gatherH6908 them round aboutH5439 against thee, and will discoverH1540 thy nakednessH6172 unto them, that they may seeH7200 all thy nakednessH6172.
And I will judgeH8199 thee, as women that break wedlockH5003 and shedH8210 bloodH1818 are judgedH4941; and I will giveH5414 thee bloodH1818 in furyH2534 and jealousyH7068. {as: Heb. with judgments of}
And I will also giveH5414 thee into their handH3027, and they shall throw downH2040 thine eminent placeH1354, and shall break downH5422 thy high placesH7413: they shall stripH6584 thee also of thy clothesH899, and shall takeH3947 thy fairH8597 jewelsH3627, and leaveH3240 thee nakedH5903 and bareH6181. {thy fair…: Heb. instruments of thine ornament}
They shall also bring upH5927 a companyH6951 against thee, and they shall stoneH7275 thee with stonesH68, and thrust thee throughH1333 with their swordsH2719.
And they shall burnH8313 thine housesH1004 with fireH784, and executeH6213 judgmentsH8201 upon thee in the sightH5869 of manyH7227 womenH802: and I will cause thee to ceaseH7673 from playing the harlotH2181, and thou also shalt giveH5414 no hireH868 any more.
So will I make my furyH2534 toward thee to restH5117, and my jealousyH7068 shall departH5493 from thee, and I will be quietH8252, and will be no more angryH3707.
Because thou hast not rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, but hast frettedH7264 me in all these things; beholdH1887, therefore I also will recompenseH5414 thy wayH1870 upon thine headH7218, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069: and thou shalt not commitH6213 this lewdnessH2154 above all thine abominationsH8441.
Behold, every one that useth proverbsH4911 shall use this proverbH4911 against thee, sayingH559, As is the motherH517, so is her daughterH1323.
Thou art thy mother'sH517 daughterH1323, that lothethH1602 her husbandH376 and her childrenH1121; and thou art the sisterH269 of thy sistersH269, which lothedH1602 their husbandsH582 and their childrenH1121: your motherH517 was an HittiteH2850, and your fatherH1 an AmoriteH567.
And thine elderH1419 sisterH269 is SamariaH8111, she and her daughtersH1323 that dwellH3427 at thy left handH8040: and thy youngerH6996 sisterH269, that dwellethH3427 at thy right handH3225, is SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323. {thy younger: Heb. lesser than thou}
Yet hast thou not walkedH1980 after their waysH1870, nor doneH6213 after their abominationsH8441: but, as if that were a veryH6985 littleH4592+H6962 thing, thou wast corruptedH7843 more than theyH2004 in all thy waysH1870. {as if…: or, that was lothed as a small thing}
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, SodomH5467 thy sisterH269 hath not doneH6213, she nor her daughtersH1323, as thou hast doneH6213, thou and thy daughtersH1323.
Behold, this was the iniquityH5771 of thy sisterH269 SodomH5467, prideH1347, fulnessH7653 of breadH3899, and abundanceH7962 of idlenessH8252 was in her and in her daughtersH1323, neither did she strengthenH2388 the handH3027 of the poorH6041 and needyH34.
And they were haughtyH1361, and committedH6213 abominationH8441 beforeH6440 me: therefore I took them awayH5493 as I sawH7200 good.
Neither hath SamariaH8111 committedH2398 halfH2677 of thy sinsH2403; but thou hast multipliedH7235 thine abominationsH8441 more than theyH2007, and hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269 in all thine abominationsH8441 which thou hast doneH6213.
Thou also, which hast judgedH6419 thy sistersH269, bearH5375 thine own shameH3639 for thy sinsH2403 that thou hast committed more abominableH8581 than theyH2004: they are more righteousH6663 than thou: yea, be thou confoundedH954 also, and bearH5375 thy shameH3639, in that thou hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269.
When I shall bring againH7725 their captivityH7622+H7622, the captivityH7622+H7622 of SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, and the captivityH7622+H7622 of SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323, then will I bring again the captivityH7622+H7622 of thy captivesH7622 in the midstH8432 of them:
That thou mayest bearH5375 thine own shameH3639, and mayest be confoundedH3637 in all that thou hast doneH6213, in that thou art a comfortH5162 unto them.
When thy sistersH269, SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, shall returnH7725 to their former estateH6927, and SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to their former estateH6927, then thou and thy daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to your former estateH6927.
For thy sisterH269 SodomH5467 was not mentionedH8052 by thy mouthH6310 in the dayH3117 of thy prideH1347, {mentioned: Heb. for a report, or, hearing} {pride: Heb. prides, or, excellencies}
Before thy wickednessH7451 was discoveredH1540, as at the timeH6256 of thy reproachH2781 of the daughtersH1323 of SyriaH758, and all that are round aboutH5439 her, the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430, which despiseH7590 thee round aboutH5439. {Syria: Heb. Aram} {despise: or, spoil}
Thou hast borneH5375 thy lewdnessH2154 and thine abominationsH8441, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {borne: Heb. borne them}
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will even dealH6213 with thee as thou hast doneH6213, which hast despisedH959 the oathH423 in breakingH6565 the covenantH1285.
Nevertheless I will rememberH2142 my covenantH1285 with thee in the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, and I will establishH6965 unto thee an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285.
Then thou shalt rememberH2142 thy waysH1870, and be ashamedH3637, when thou shalt receiveH3947 thy sistersH269, thine elderH1419 and thy youngerH6996: and I will giveH5414 them unto thee for daughtersH1323, but not by thy covenantH1285.
And I will establishH6965 my covenantH1285 with thee; and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068:
That thou mayest rememberH2142, and be confoundedH954, and never openH6610 thy mouthH6310 any more becauseH6440 of thy shameH3639, when I am pacifiedH3722 toward thee for all that thou hast doneH6213, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
I clothedH3847 thee also with broidered workH7553, and shodH5274 thee with badgers' skinH8476, and I girdedH2280 thee about with fine linenH8336, and I coveredH3680 thee with silkH4897.
I deckedH5710 thee also with ornamentsH5716, and I putH5414 braceletsH6781 upon thy handsH3027, and a chainH7242 on thy neckH1627.
And I putH5414 a jewelH5141 on thy foreheadH639, and earringsH5694 in thine earsH241, and a beautifulH8597 crownH5850 upon thine headH7218. {forehead: Heb. nose}
Thus wast thou deckedH5710 with goldH2091 and silverH3701; and thy raimentH4403 was of fine linenH8336+H8336, and silkH4897, and broidered workH7553; thou didst eatH398 fine flourH5560, and honeyH1706, and oilH8081: and thou wast exceedingH3966 beautifulH3302, and thou didst prosperH6743 into a kingdomH4410.
And thy renownH8034 went forthH3318 among the heathenH1471 for thy beautyH3308: for it was perfectH3632 through my comelinessH1926, which I had putH7760 upon thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
But this shall be the covenantH1285 that I will makeH3772 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; AfterH310 those daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will putH5414 my lawH8451 in their inward partsH7130, and writeH3789 it in their heartsH3820; and will be their GodH430, and they shall be my peopleH5971.
And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, ArtG1488 thouG4771 a masterG1320 of IsraelG2474, andG2532 knowestG1097 notG3756 these thingsG5023?
Thy peopleH5971 also shall be all righteousH6662: they shall inheritH3423 the landH776 for everH5769, the branchH5342 of my plantingH4302, the workH4639 of my handsH3027, that I may be glorifiedH6286.
It isG2076 writtenG1125 inG1722 the prophetsG4396, AndG2532 they shall beG2071 allG3956 taughtG1318 of GodG2316. Every manG3956 thereforeG3767 that hath heardG191, andG2532 hath learnedG3129 ofG3844 the FatherG3962, comethG2064 untoG4314 meG3165.
AndG2532 to JesusG2424 the mediatorG3316 of the newG3501 covenantG1242, andG2532 to the bloodG129 of sprinklingG4473, that speakethG2980 better thingsG2909 thanG3844 that of AbelG6. {covenant: or, testament}
The wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 against BabylonH894 and against the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778 byH3027 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030. {by…: Heb. by the hand of Jeremiah}
DeclareH5046 ye among the nationsH1471, and publishH8085, and set upH5375 a standardH5251; publishH8085, and concealH3582 not: sayH559, BabylonH894 is takenH3920, BelH1078 is confoundedH3001, MerodachH4781 is broken in piecesH2865; her idolsH6091 are confoundedH3001, her imagesH1544 are broken in piecesH2865. {set up: Heb. lift up}
For out of the northH6828 there cometh upH5927 a nationH1471 against her, which shall makeH7896 her landH776 desolateH8047, and none shall dwellH3427 therein: they shall removeH5110, they shall departH1980, both manH120 and beastH929.
In those daysH3117, and in that timeH6256, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall comeH935, they and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 togetherH3162, goingH1980 and weepingH1058: they shall goH3212, and seekH1245 the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
They shall askH7592 the wayH1870 to ZionH6726 with their facesH6440 thitherwardH2008, saying, ComeH935, and let us joinH3867 ourselves to the LORDH3068 in a perpetualH5769 covenantH1285 that shall not be forgottenH7911.
My peopleH5971 hath been lostH6 sheepH6629: their shepherdsH7462 have caused them to go astrayH8582, they have turned them awayH7725+H7726 on the mountainsH2022: they have goneH1980 from mountainH2022 to hillH1389, they have forgottenH7911 their restingplaceH7258. {restingplace: Heb. place to lie down in}
All that foundH4672 them have devouredH398 them: and their adversariesH6862 saidH559, We offendH816 not, because they have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068, the habitationH5116 of justiceH6664, even the LORDH3068, the hopeH4723 of their fathersH1.
RemoveH5110 out of the midstH8432 of BabylonH894, and go forthH3318+H3318 out of the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778, and be as the he goatsH6260 beforeH6440 the flocksH6629.
For, lo, I will raiseH5782 and cause to come upH5927 against BabylonH894 an assemblyH6951 of greatH1419 nationsH1471 from the northH6828 countryH776: and they shall set themselves in arrayH6186 against her; from thence she shall be takenH3920: their arrowsH2671 shall be as of a mightyH1368 expert manH7919+H7921; none shall returnH7725 in vainH7387. {expert…: or, destroyer}
And ChaldeaH3778 shall be a spoilH7998: all that spoilH7997 her shall be satisfiedH7646, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Because ye were gladH8055, because ye rejoicedH5937, O ye destroyersH8154 of mine heritageH5159, because ye are grown fatH6335 as the heiferH5697 at grassH1877+H1758, and bellowH6670 as bullsH47; {fat: Heb. big, or, corpulent} {bellow…: or, neigh as steeds}
Your motherH517 shall be soreH3966 confoundedH954; she that bareH3205 you shall be ashamedH2659: behold, the hindermostH319 of the nationsH1471 shall be a wildernessH4057, a dry landH6723, and a desertH6160.
Because of the wrathH7110 of the LORDH3068 it shall not be inhabitedH3427, but it shall be wholly desolateH8077: every one that goethH5674 by BabylonH894 shall be astonishedH8074, and hissH8319 at all her plaguesH4347.
Put yourselves in arrayH6186 against BabylonH894 round aboutH5439: all ye that bendH1869 the bowH7198, shootH3034 at her, spareH2550 no arrowsH2671: for she hath sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068.
ShoutH7321 against her round aboutH5439: she hath givenH5414 her handH3027: her foundationsH803 are fallenH5307, her wallsH2346 are thrown downH2040: for it is the vengeanceH5360 of the LORDH3068: take vengeanceH5358 upon her; as she hath doneH6213, doH6213 unto her.
Cut offH3772 the sowerH2232 from BabylonH894, and him that handlethH8610 the sickleH4038 in the timeH6256 of harvestH7105: for fearH6440 of the oppressingH3238 swordH2719 they shall turnH6437 every oneH376 to his peopleH5971, and they shall fleeH5127 every oneH376 to his own landH776. {sickle; or, scythe}
IsraelH3478 is a scatteredH6340 sheepH7716; the lionsH738 have driven him awayH5080: firstH7223 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 hath devouredH398 him; and lastH314 this NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 hath broken his bonesH6105.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will punishH6485 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and his landH776, as I have punishedH6485 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.
And I will bringH7725 IsraelH3478 againH7725 to his habitationH5116, and he shall feedH7462 on CarmelH3760 and BashanH1316, and his soulH5315 shall be satisfiedH7646 upon mountH2022 EphraimH669 and GileadH1568.
In those daysH3117, and in that timeH6256, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, the iniquityH5771 of IsraelH3478 shall be sought forH1245, and there shall be none; and the sinsH2403 of JudahH3063, and they shall not be foundH4672: for I will pardonH5545 them whom I reserveH7604.
Go upH5927 against the landH776 of MerathaimH4850, even against it, and against the inhabitantsH3427 of PekodH6489: wasteH2717 and utterly destroyH2763 afterH310 them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and doH6213 according to all that I have commandedH6680 thee. {of Merathaim: or, of the rebels} {Pekod: or, Visitation}
A soundH6963 of battleH4421 is in the landH776, and of greatH1419 destructionH7667.
How is the hammerH6360 of the whole earthH776 cut asunderH1438 and brokenH7665! how is BabylonH894 become a desolationH8047 among the nationsH1471!
I have laid a snareH3369 for thee, and thou art also takenH3920, O BabylonH894, and thou wast not awareH3045: thou art foundH4672, and also caughtH8610, because thou hast strivenH1624 against the LORDH3068.
The LORDH3068 hath openedH6605 his armouryH214, and hath brought forthH3318 the weaponsH3627 of his indignationH2195: for this is the workH4399 of the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 in the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778.
ComeH935 against her from the utmost borderH7093, openH6605 her storehousesH3965: cast her upH5549 as heapsH6194, and destroy her utterlyH2763: let nothing of her be leftH7611. {from…: Heb. from the end} {cast…: or, tread her}
SlayH2717 all her bullocksH6499; let them go downH3381 to the slaughterH2874: woeH1945 unto them! for their dayH3117 is comeH935, the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486.
The voiceH6963 of them that fleeH5127 and escape outH6405 of the landH776 of BabylonH894, to declareH5046 in ZionH6726 the vengeanceH5360 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, the vengeanceH5360 of his templeH1964.
Call togetherH8085 the archersH7228 against BabylonH894: all ye that bendH1869 the bowH7198, campH2583 against it round aboutH5439; let none thereof escapeH6413: recompenseH7999 her according to her workH6467; according to all that she hath doneH6213, doH6213 unto her: for she hath been proudH2102 against the LORDH3068, against the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.
Therefore shall her young menH970 fallH5307 in the streetsH7339, and all her menH582 of warH4421 shall be cut offH1826 in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proudH2087, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635: for thy dayH3117 is comeH935, the timeH6256 that I will visitH6485 thee. {most…: Heb. pride}
And the most proudH2087 shall stumbleH3782 and fallH5307, and none shall raise him upH6965: and I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in his citiesH5892, and it shall devourH398 all round aboutH5439 him. {the…: Heb. pride}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; The childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 were oppressedH6231 togetherH3162: and all that took them captivesH7617 held them fastH2388; they refusedH3985 to let them goH7971.
Their RedeemerH1350 is strongH2389; the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034: he shall throughlyH7378 pleadH7378 their causeH7379, that he may give restH7280 to the landH776, and disquietH7264 the inhabitantsH3427 of BabylonH894.
A swordH2719 is upon the ChaldeansH3778, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and upon the inhabitantsH3427 of BabylonH894, and upon her princesH8269, and upon her wiseH2450 men.
A swordH2719 is upon the liarsH907; and they shall doteH2973: a swordH2719 is upon her mighty menH1368; and they shall be dismayedH2865. {liars: or, chief stays: Heb. bars}
A swordH2719 is upon their horsesH5483, and upon their chariotsH7393, and upon all the mingled peopleH6154 that are in the midstH8432 of her; and they shall become as womenH802: a swordH2719 is upon her treasuresH214; and they shall be robbedH962.
A droughtH2721 is upon her watersH4325; and they shall be dried upH3001: for it is the landH776 of graven imagesH6456, and they are madH1984 upon their idolsH367.
Therefore the wild beasts of the desertH6728 with the wild beasts of the islandsH338 shall dwellH3427 there, and the owlsH1323+H3284 shall dwellH3427 therein: and it shall be no more inhabitedH3427 for everH5331; neither shall it be dweltH7931 in from generationH1755 to generationH1755.
As GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and the neighbourH7934 cities thereof, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; so shall no manH376 abideH3427 there, neither shall any sonH1121 of manH120 dwellH1481 therein.
Behold, a peopleH5971 shall comeH935 from the northH6828, and a greatH1419 nationH1471, and manyH7227 kingsH4428 shall be raised upH5782 from the coastsH3411 of the earthH776.
They shall holdH2388 the bowH7198 and the lanceH3591: they are cruelH394, and will not shew mercyH7355: their voiceH6963 shall roarH1993 like the seaH3220, and they shall rideH7392 upon horsesH5483, every one put in arrayH6186, like a manH376 to the battleH4421, against thee, O daughterH1323 of BabylonH894.
The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 hath heardH8085 the reportH8088 of them, and his handsH3027 waxed feebleH7503: anguishH6869 took holdH2388 of him, and pangsH2427 as of a woman in travailH3205.
Behold, he shall come upH5927 like a lionH738 from the swellingH1347 of JordanH3383 unto the habitationH5116 of the strongH386: but I will makeH7323 them suddenlyH7280 run awayH7323+H7323 from her: and who is a chosenH977 man, that I may appointH6485 over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the timeH3259? and who is that shepherdH7462 that will standH5975 beforeH6440 me? {appoint me…: or, convent me to plead?}
Therefore hearH8085 ye the counselH6098 of the LORDH3068, that he hath takenH3289 against BabylonH894; and his purposesH4284, that he hath purposedH2803 against the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778: Surely the leastH6810 of the flockH6629 shall draw them outH5498: surely he shall make their habitationH5116 desolateH8074 with them.
At the noiseH6963 of the takingH8610 of BabylonH894 the earthH776 is movedH7493, and the cryH2201 is heardH8085 among the nationsH1471.
They shall askH7592 the wayH1870 to ZionH6726 with their facesH6440 thitherwardH2008, saying, ComeH935, and let us joinH3867 ourselves to the LORDH3068 in a perpetualH5769 covenantH1285 that shall not be forgottenH7911.
My peopleH5971 hath been lostH6 sheepH6629: their shepherdsH7462 have caused them to go astrayH8582, they have turned them awayH7725+H7726 on the mountainsH2022: they have goneH1980 from mountainH2022 to hillH1389, they have forgottenH7911 their restingplaceH7258. {restingplace: Heb. place to lie down in}
Thy wordH565 have I hidH6845 in mine heartH3820, that I might not sinH2398 against thee.
