Then answeredH6030 BildadH1085 the ShuhiteH7747, and saidH559,
DominionH4910 and fearH6343 are with him, he makethH6213 peaceH7965 in his high placesH4791.
Is thereH3426 any numberH4557 of his armiesH1416? and upon whom doth not his lightH216 ariseH6965?
Shall mortal manH582 be more justH6663 than GodH433? shall a manH1397 be more pureH2891 than his makerH6213?
What is manH582, that he should be cleanH2135? and he which is bornH3205 of a womanH802, that he should be righteousH6663?
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}
The voiceH6963 of him that criethH7121 in the wildernessH4057, PrepareH6437 ye the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, make straightH3474 in the desertH6160 a highwayH4546 for our GodH430.
Every valleyH1516 shall be exaltedH5375, and every mountainH2022 and hillH1389 shall be made lowH8213: and the crookedH6121 shall be made straightH4334, and the rough placesH7406 plainH1237: {straight: or, a straight place} {plain: or, a plain place}
And the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 shall be revealedH1540, and all fleshH1320 shall seeH7200 it togetherH3162: for the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
The voiceH6963 saidH559, CryH7121. And he saidH559, What shall I cryH7121? All fleshH1320 is grassH2682, and all the goodlinessH2617 thereof is as the flowerH6731 of the fieldH7704:
The grassH2682 witherethH3001, the flowerH6731 fadethH5034: because the spiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 blowethH5380 upon it: surelyH403 the peopleH5971 is grassH2682.
The grassH2682 witherethH3001, the flowerH6731 fadethH5034: but the wordH1697 of our GodH430 shall standH6965 for everH5769.
O ZionH6726, that bringest good tidingsH1319, get thee upH5927 into the highH1364 mountainH2022; O JerusalemH3389, that bringest good tidingsH1319, lift upH7311 thy voiceH6963 with strengthH3581; lift it upH7311, be not afraidH3372; sayH559 unto the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, Behold your GodH430! {O Zion…: or, O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion} {O Jerusalem…: or, O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem}
Behold, the LordH136 GODH3069 will comeH935 with strongH2389 hand, and his armH2220 shall ruleH4910 for him: behold, his rewardH7939 is with him, and his workH6468 beforeH6440 him. {with strong…: or, against the strong} {his work: or, recompence for his work}
He shall feedH7462 his flockH5739 like a shepherdH7462: he shall gatherH6908 the lambsH2922 with his armH2220, and carryH5375 them in his bosomH2436, and shall gently leadH5095 those that are with youngH5763. {that…: or, that give suck}
Who hath measuredH4058 the watersH4325 in the hollow of his handH8168, and meted outH8505 heavenH8064 with the spanH2239, and comprehendedH3557 the dustH6083 of the earthH776 in a measureH7991, and weighedH8254 the mountainsH2022 in scalesH6425, and the hillsH1389 in a balanceH3976? {a measure: Heb. a tierce}
Who hath directedH8505 the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068, or being his counsellorH376+H6098 hath taughtH3045 him? {his…: Heb. man of his counsel}
With whom took he counselH3289, and who instructedH995 him, and taughtH3925 him in the pathH734 of judgmentH4941, and taughtH3925 him knowledgeH1847, and shewedH3045 to him the wayH1870 of understandingH8394? {instructed…: Heb. made him understand} {understanding: Heb. understandings?}
Behold, the nationsH1471 are as a dropH4752 of a bucketH1805, and are countedH2803 as the small dustH7834 of the balanceH3976: behold, he taketh upH5190 the islesH339 as a very little thingH1851.
And LebanonH3844 is notH369 sufficientH1767 to burnH1197, nor the beastsH2416 thereof sufficientH1767 for a burnt offeringH5930.
All nationsH1471 before him are as nothing; and they are countedH2803 to him less than nothingH657, and vanityH8414.
To whom then will ye likenH1819 GodH410? or what likenessH1823 will ye compareH6186 unto him?
The workmanH2796 meltethH5258 a graven imageH6459, and the goldsmithH6884 spreadethH7554 it over with goldH2091, and castethH6884 silverH3701 chainsH7577.
He that is so impoverishedH5533+H5534 that he hath no oblationH8641 choosethH977 a treeH6086 that will not rotH7537; he seekethH1245 unto him a cunningH2450 workmanH2796 to prepareH3559 a graven imageH6459, that shall not be movedH4131. {is so…: Heb. is poor of oblation}
Have ye not knownH3045? have ye not heardH8085? hath it not been toldH5046 you from the beginningH7218? have ye not understoodH995 from the foundationsH4146 of the earthH776?
It is he that sittethH3427 upon the circleH2329 of the earthH776, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof are as grasshoppersH2284; that stretcheth outH5186 the heavensH8064 as a curtainH1852, and spreadeth them outH4969 as a tentH168 to dwell inH3427: {It is…: or, Him that}
That bringethH5414 the princesH7336 to nothing; he makethH6213 the judgesH8199 of the earthH776 as vanityH8414.
Yea, they shall not be plantedH5193; yea, they shall not be sownH2232: yea, their stockH1503 shall not take rootH8327 in the earthH776: and he shall also blowH5398 upon them, and they shall witherH3001, and the whirlwindH5591 shall takeH5375 them away as stubbleH7179.
To whom then will ye likenH1819 me, or shall I be equalH7737? saithH559 the Holy OneH6918.
Lift upH5375 your eyesH5869 on highH4791, and beholdH7200 who hath createdH1254 these things, that bringeth outH3318 their hostH6635 by numberH4557: he callethH7121 them all by namesH8034 by the greatnessH7230 of his mightH202, for that he is strongH533 in powerH3581; not oneH376 failethH5737.
Why sayestH559 thou, O JacobH3290, and speakestH1696, O IsraelH3478, My wayH1870 is hidH5641 from the LORDH3068, and my judgmentH4941 is passed overH5674 from my GodH430?
Hast thou not knownH3045? hast thou not heardH8085, that the everlastingH5769 GodH430, the LORDH3068, the CreatorH1254 of the endsH7098 of the earthH776, faintethH3286 not, neither is wearyH3021? there is no searchingH2714 of his understandingH8394.
He givethH5414 powerH3581 to the faintH3287; and to them that have no mightH202 he increasethH7235 strengthH6109.
Even the youthsH5288 shall faintH3286 and be wearyH3021, and the young menH970 shall utterlyH3782 fallH3782:
But they that waitH6960 upon the LORDH3068 shall renewH2498 their strengthH3581; they shall mount upH5927 with wingsH83 as eaglesH5404; they shall runH7323, and not be wearyH3021; and they shall walkH3212, and not faintH3286. {renew: Heb. change}
And in that dayH3117 thou shalt sayH559, O LORDH3068, I will praiseH3034 thee: though thou wast angryH599 with me, thine angerH639 is turned awayH7725, and thou comfortedstH5162 me.
Behold, GodH410 is my salvationH3444; I will trustH982, and not be afraidH6342: for the LORDH3050 JEHOVAHH3068 is my strengthH5797 and my songH2176; he also is become my salvationH3444.
Therefore with joyH8342 shall ye drawH7579 waterH4325 out of the wellsH4599 of salvationH3444.
And in that dayH3117 shall ye sayH559, PraiseH3034 the LORDH3068, callH7121 upon his nameH8034, declareH3045 his doingsH5949 among the peopleH5971, make mentionH2142 that his nameH8034 is exaltedH7682. {call…: or, proclaim}
SingH2167 unto the LORDH3068; for he hath doneH6213 excellent thingsH1348: this is knownH3045+H3045 in all the earthH776.
Cry outH6670 and shoutH7442, thou inhabitantH3427 of ZionH6726: for greatH1419 is the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 in the midstH7130 of thee. {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
The burdenH4853 of the valleyH1516 of visionH2384. What aileth thee nowH645, that thou art wholly gone upH5927 to the housetopsH1406?
Thou that art fullH4392 of stirsH8663, a tumultuousH1993 cityH5892, a joyousH5947 cityH7151: thy slainH2491 men are not slainH2491 with the swordH2719, nor deadH4191 in battleH4421.
All thy rulersH7101 are fledH5074 togetherH3162, they are boundH631 by the archersH7198: all that are foundH4672 in thee are boundH631 togetherH3162, which have fledH1272 from farH7350. {by…: Heb. of the bow}
Therefore saidH559 I, Look awayH8159 from me; I will weepH1065 bitterlyH4843, labourH213 not to comfortH5162 me, because of the spoilingH7701 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971. {weep…: Heb. be bitter in weeping}
For it is a dayH3117 of troubleH4103, and of treading downH4001, and of perplexityH3998 by the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 in the valleyH1516 of visionH2384, breakingH6979 down the wallsH7023, and of cryingH7771 to the mountainsH2022.
And ElamH5867 bareH5375 the quiverH827 with chariotsH7393 of menH120 and horsemenH6571, and KirH7024 uncoveredH6168 the shieldH4043. {uncovered: Heb. made naked}
And it shall come to pass, that thy choicestH4005 valleysH6010 shall be fullH4390 of chariotsH7393, and the horsemenH6571 shall setH7896 themselves in arrayH7896 at the gateH8179. {thy…: Heb. the choice of thy valleys} {at: or, towards}
And he discoveredH1540 the coveringH4539 of JudahH3063, and thou didst lookH5027 in that dayH3117 to the armourH5402 of the houseH1004 of the forestH3293.
Ye have seenH7200 also the breachesH1233 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, that they are manyH7231: and ye gathered togetherH6908 the watersH4325 of the lowerH8481 poolH1295.
And ye have numberedH5608 the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and the housesH1004 have ye broken downH5422 to fortifyH1219 the wallH2346.
Ye madeH6213 also a ditchH4724 between the two wallsH2346 for the waterH4325 of the oldH3465 poolH1295: but ye have not lookedH5027 unto the makerH6213 thereof, neither had respectH7200 unto him that fashionedH3335 it long agoH7350.
And in that dayH3117 did the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 callH7121 to weepingH1065, and to mourningH4553, and to baldnessH7144, and to girdingH2296 with sackclothH8242:
And behold joyH8342 and gladnessH8057, slayingH2026 oxenH1241, and killingH7819 sheepH6629, eatingH398 fleshH1320, and drinkingH8354 wineH3196: let us eatH398 and drinkH8354; for to morrowH4279 we shall dieH4191.
And it was revealedH1540 in mine earsH241 by the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Surely this iniquityH5771 shall not be purgedH3722 from you till ye dieH4191, saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635, GoH3212, getH935 thee unto this treasurerH5532, even unto ShebnaH7644, which is over the houseH1004, and say,
What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee outH2672 a sepulchreH6913 hereH6311, as he that heweth him outH2672 a sepulchreH6913 on highH4791, and that gravethH2710 an habitationH4908 for himself in a rockH5553? {as…: or, O he}
Behold, the LORDH3068 will carry thee awayH2904 with a mightyH1397 captivityH2925, and will surelyH5844 coverH5844 thee. {will carry…: or, the Lord who covered thee with an excellent covering, and clothed thee gorgeously, v.18.shall surely, etc} {a mighty…: Heb. the captivity of a man}
He will surelyH6801 violently turnH6801 and tossH6802 thee like a ballH1754 into a largeH7342+H3027 countryH776: there shalt thou dieH4191, and there the chariotsH4818 of thy gloryH3519 shall be the shameH7036 of thy lord'sH113 houseH1004. {large: Heb. large of spaces}
And I will driveH1920 thee from thy stationH4673, and from thy stateH4612 shall he pull thee downH2040.
And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that I will callH7121 my servantH5650 EliakimH471 the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518:
And I will clotheH3847 him with thy robeH3801, and strengthenH2388 him with thy girdleH73, and I will commitH5414 thy governmentH4475 into his handH3027: and he shall be a fatherH1 to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063.
And the keyH4668 of the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 will I layH5414 upon his shoulderH7926; so he shall openH6605, and none shall shutH5462; and he shall shutH5462, and none shall openH6605.
And I will fastenH8628 him as a nailH3489 in a sureH539 placeH4725; and he shall be for a gloriousH3519 throneH3678 to his father'sH1 houseH1004.
And they shall hangH8518 upon him all the gloryH3519 of his father'sH1 houseH1004, the offspringH6631 and the issueH6849, all vesselsH3627 of smallH6996 quantity, from the vesselsH3627 of cupsH101, even to all the vesselsH3627 of flagonsH5035. {vessels of flagons: or, instruments of viols}
In that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, shall the nailH3489 that is fastenedH8628 in the sureH539 placeH4725 be removedH4185, and be cut downH1438, and fallH5307; and the burdenH4853 that was upon it shall be cut offH3772: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
In that dayH3117 shall this songH7892 be sungH7891 in the landH776 of JudahH3063; We have a strongH5797 cityH5892; salvationH3444 will God appointH7896 for wallsH2346 and bulwarksH2426.
OpenH6605 ye the gatesH8179, that the righteousH6662 nationH1471 which keepethH8104 the truthH529 may enter inH935. {truth: Heb. truths}
Thou wilt keepH5341 him in perfectH7965 peaceH7965, whose mindH3336 is stayedH5564 on thee: because he trustethH982 in thee. {perfect…: Heb. peace, peace} {mind: or, thought, or, imagination}
TrustH982 ye in the LORDH3068 for everH5703: for in the LORDH3050 JEHOVAHH3068 is everlastingH5769 strengthH6697: {everlasting…: Heb. the rock of ages}
For he bringeth downH7817 them that dwellH3427 on highH4791; the loftyH7682 cityH7151, he layeth it lowH8213; he layeth it lowH8213, even to the groundH776; he bringethH5060 it even to the dustH6083.
The footH7272 shall tread it downH7429, even the feetH7272 of the poorH6041, and the stepsH6471 of the needyH1800.
The wayH734 of the justH6662 is uprightnessH4339: thou, most uprightH3477, dost weighH6424 the pathH4570 of the justH6662.
Yea, in the wayH734 of thy judgmentsH4941, O LORDH3068, have we waitedH6960 for thee; the desireH8378 of our soulH5315 is to thy nameH8034, and to the remembranceH2143 of thee.
With my soulH5315 have I desiredH183 thee in the nightH3915; yea, with my spiritH7307 withinH7130 me will I seek thee earlyH7836: for when thy judgmentsH4941 are in the earthH776, the inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398 will learnH3925 righteousnessH6664.
Let favour be shewedH2603 to the wickedH7563, yet will he notH1077 learnH3925 righteousnessH6664: in the landH776 of uprightnessH5229 will he deal unjustlyH5765, and will notH1077 beholdH7200 the majestyH1348 of the LORDH3068.
LORDH3068, when thy handH3027 is lifted upH7311, they will not seeH2372: but they shall seeH2372, and be ashamedH954 for their envyH7068 at the peopleH5971; yea, the fireH784 of thine enemiesH6862 shall devourH398 them. {at…: or, toward thy people}
LORDH3068, thou wilt ordainH8239 peaceH7965 for us: for thou also hast wroughtH6466 all our worksH4639 in us. {in us: or, for us}
O LORDH3068 our GodH430, other lordsH113 besideH2108 thee have had dominionH1166 over us: but by thee only will we make mentionH2142 of thy nameH8034.
They are deadH4191, they shall not liveH2421; they are deceasedH7496, they shall not riseH6965: therefore hast thou visitedH6485 and destroyedH8045 them, and made all their memoryH2143 to perishH6.
Thou hast increasedH3254 the nationH1471, O LORDH3068, thou hast increasedH3254 the nationH1471: thou art glorifiedH3513: thou hadst removed it farH7368 unto all the endsH7099 of the earthH776.
LORDH3068, in troubleH6862 have they visitedH6485 thee, they poured outH6694 a prayerH3908 when thy chasteningH4148 was upon them. {prayer: Heb. secret speech}
LikeH3644 as a woman with childH2030, that draweth nearH7126 the time of her deliveryH3205, is in painH2342, and crieth outH2199 in her pangsH2256; so have we been in thy sightH6440, O LORDH3068.
We have been with childH2029, we have been in painH2342, we have as it wereH3644 brought forthH3205 windH7307; we have not wroughtH6213 any deliveranceH3444 in the earthH776; neitherH1077 have the inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398 fallenH5307.
Thy deadH4191 men shall liveH2421, together with my dead bodyH5038 shall they ariseH6965. AwakeH6974 and singH7442, ye that dwellH7931 in dustH6083: for thy dewH2919 is as the dewH2919 of herbsH219, and the earthH776 shall cast outH5307 the deadH7496.
ComeH3212, my peopleH5971, enterH935 thou into thy chambersH2315, and shutH5462 thy doorsH1817 about thee: hideH2247 thyself as it were for a littleH4592 momentH7281, until the indignationH2195 be overpastH5674.
For, behold, the LORDH3068 cometh outH3318 of his placeH4725 to punishH6485 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776 for their iniquityH5771: the earthH776 also shall discloseH1540 her bloodH1818, and shall no more coverH3680 her slainH2026. {blood: Heb. bloods}
Who would not fearH3372 thee, O KingH4428 of nationsH1471? for to thee doth it appertainH2969: forasmuch as among all the wiseH2450 men of the nationsH1471, and in all their kingdomsH4438, there is none like unto thee. {to…: or, it liketh thee}
WhoG3739 beingG5607 the brightnessG541 of his gloryG1391, andG2532 the express imageG5481 of hisG846 personG5287, andG5037 upholdingG5342 all thingsG3956 by the wordG4487 of hisG846 powerG1411, when he hadG4160+G2512 byG1223 himselfG1438 purgedG4160+G2512 ourG2257 sinsG266, sat downG2523 onG1722 the right handG1188 of the MajestyG3172 onG1722 highG5308;
ButG235 ye are comeG4334 unto mountG3735 SionG4622, andG2532 unto the cityG4172 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the heavenlyG2032 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 to an innumerable companyG3461 of angelsG32,
AndG2532 I beheldG1492, andG2532 I heardG191 the voiceG5456 of manyG4183 angelsG32 round aboutG2943 the throneG2362 andG2532 the beastsG2226 andG2532 the eldersG4245: andG2532 the numberG706 of themG846 wasG2258 ten thousandG3461 times ten thousandG3461, andG2532 thousandsG5505 of thousandsG5505;
WhoG3588 onlyG3441 hathG2192 immortalityG110, dwellingG3611 in the lightG5457 which no manG3762 can approach untoG676; whomG3739 no manG444 hath seenG1492, norG3761 canG1410 seeG1492: to whomG3739 be honourG5092 andG2532 powerG2904 everlastingG166. AmenG281.
ThisG3778 thenG2532 isG2076 the messageG1860 whichG3739 we have heardG191 ofG575 himG846, andG2532 declareG312 unto youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 lightG5457, andG2532 inG1722 himG846 isG2076 noG3756 darknessG4653 at allG3762.
He revealethH1541 the deepH5994 and secret thingsH5642: he knowethH3046 whatH4101 is in the darknessH2816, and the lightH5094 dwellethH8271 with himH5974.
