Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of Jacob'sH3290 tentsH168, and have mercyH7355 on his dwellingplacesH4908; and the cityH5892 shall be buildedH1129 upon her own heapH8510, and the palaceH759 shall remainH3427 after the mannerH4941 thereof. {heap: or, little hill}
And out of them shall proceedH3318 thanksgivingH8426 and the voiceH6963 of them that make merryH7832: and I will multiplyH7235 them, and they shall not be fewH4591; I will also glorifyH3513 them, and they shall not be smallH6819.

And their noblesH117 shall be of themselves, and their governorH4910 shall proceedH3318 from the midstH7130 of them; and I will cause him to draw nearH7126, and he shall approachH5066 unto me: for who is this that engagedH6148 his heartH3820 to approachH5066 unto me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And ye shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be your GodH430.
And he shall cut downH5362 the thicketsH5442 of the forestH3293 with ironH1270, and LebanonH3844 shall fallH5307 by a mighty oneH117. {by…: or, mightily}
And there shall come forthH3318 a rodH2415 out of the stemH1503 of JesseH3448, and a BranchH5342 shall growH6509 out of his rootsH8328:
Thou shalt in any wiseH7760 setH7760 him kingH4428 over thee, whom the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall chooseH977: one from amongH7130 thy brethrenH251 shalt thou setH7760 kingH4428 over thee: thou mayestH3201 not setH5414 a strangerH5237+H376 over thee, which is not thy brotherH251.
For every battleH5430 of the warriorH5431 is with confused noiseH7494, and garmentsH8071 rolledH1556 in bloodH1818; but this shall be with burningH8316 and fuelH3980 of fireH784. {For…: or, When the whole battle of the warrior was, etc} {but…: or, and it was, etc} {fuel: Heb. meat}
Now gatherH1413 thyself in troopsH1416, O daughterH1323 of troopsH1416: he hath laidH7760 siegeH4692 against us: they shall smiteH5221 the judgeH8199 of IsraelH3478 with a rodH7626 upon the cheekH3895.
Even he shall buildH1129 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068; and he shall bearH5375 the gloryH1935, and shall sitH3427 and ruleH4910 upon his throneH3678; and he shall be a priestH3548 upon his throneH3678: and the counselH6098 of peaceH7965 shall be between them bothH8147.

And JeroboamH3379 saidH559 in his heartH3820, Now shall the kingdomH4467 returnH7725 to the houseH1004 of DavidH1732:
If this peopleH5971 go upH5927 to doH6213 sacrificeH2077 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 at JerusalemH3389, then shall the heartH3820 of this peopleH5971 turn againH7725 unto their lordH113, even unto RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and they shall killH2026 me, and go againH7725 to RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
Whereupon the kingH4428 took counselH3289, and madeH6213 twoH8147 calvesH5695 of goldH2091, and saidH559 unto them, It is too muchH7227 for you to go upH5927 to JerusalemH3389: behold thy godsH430, O IsraelH3478, which brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And he setH7760 the oneH259 in BethelH1008, and the otherH259 putH5414 he in DanH1835.
And this thingH1697 became a sinH2403: for the peopleH5971 wentH3212 to worship beforeH6440 the oneH259, even unto DanH1835.
And he madeH6213 an houseH1004 of high placesH1116, and madeH6213 priestsH3548 of the lowestH7098 of the peopleH5971, which were not of the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878.
And JeroboamH3379 ordainedH6213 a feastH2282 in the eighthH8066 monthH2320, on the fifteenthH2568+H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, like unto the feastH2282 that is in JudahH3063, and he offeredH5927 upon the altarH4196. So didH6213 he in BethelH1008, sacrificingH2076 unto the calvesH5695 that he had madeH6213: and he placedH5975 in BethelH1008 the priestsH3548 of the high placesH1116 which he had madeH6213. {offered…: or, went up to the altar, etc} {sacrificing: or, to sacrifice}
So he offeredH5927 upon the altarH4196 which he had madeH6213 in BethelH1008 the fifteenthH2568+H6240 dayH3117 of the eighthH8066 monthH2320, even in the monthH2320 which he had devisedH908 of his own heartH3820; and ordainedH6213 a feastH2282 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: and he offeredH5927 upon the altarH4196, and burnt incenseH6999. {offered…: or, went up to the altar, etc} {and burnt…: Heb. to burn incense}
And, behold, there cameH935 a manH376 of GodH430 out of JudahH3063 by the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto BethelH1008: and JeroboamH3379 stoodH5975 by the altarH4196 to burn incenseH6999. {burn: or, offer}
And he criedH7121 against the altarH4196 in the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and saidH559, O altarH4196, altarH4196, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, a childH1121 shall be bornH3205 unto the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, JosiahH2977 by nameH8034; and upon thee shall he offerH2076 the priestsH3548 of the high placesH1116 that burn incenseH6999 upon thee, and men'sH120 bonesH6106 shall be burntH8313 upon thee.
And he gaveH5414 a signH4159 the same dayH3117, sayingH559, This is the signH4159 which the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696; Behold, the altarH4196 shall be rentH7167, and the ashesH1880 that are upon it shall be poured outH8210.
And it came to pass, when kingH4428 JeroboamH3379 heardH8085 the sayingH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430, which had criedH7121 against the altarH4196 in BethelH1008, that he put forthH7971 his handH3027 from the altarH4196, sayingH559, Lay holdH8610 on him. And his handH3027, which he put forthH7971 against him, dried upH3001, so that he couldH3201 not pull it in againH7725 to him.
The altarH4196 also was rentH7167, and the ashesH1880 poured outH8210 from the altarH4196, according to the signH4159 which the manH376 of GodH430 had givenH5414 by the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And the kingH4428 answeredH6030 and saidH559 unto the manH376 of GodH430, IntreatH2470 now the faceH6440 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and prayH6419 for me, that my handH3027 may be restored me againH7725. And the manH376 of GodH430 besoughtH2470+H6440 the LORDH3068, and the king'sH4428 handH3027 was restored him againH7725, and became as it was beforeH7223. {the LORD, and: Heb. the face of the LORD, etc}
But when he was strongH2393, his heartH3820 was lifted upH1361 to his destructionH7843: for he transgressedH4603 against the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and wentH935 into the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068 to burn incenseH6999 upon the altarH4196 of incenseH7004.
And AzariahH5838 the priestH3548 went inH935 afterH310 him, and with him fourscoreH8084 priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068, that were valiantH2428 menH1121:
And they withstoodH5975 UzziahH5818 the kingH4428, and saidH559 unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, UzziahH5818, to burn incenseH6999 unto the LORDH3068, but to the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, that are consecratedH6942 to burn incenseH6999: go outH3318 of the sanctuaryH4720; for thou hast trespassedH4603; neither shall it be for thine honourH3519 from the LORDH3068 GodH430.
Then UzziahH5818 was wrothH2196, and had a censerH4730 in his handH3027 to burn incenseH6999: and while he was wrothH2196 with the priestsH3548, the leprosyH6883 even rose upH2224 in his foreheadH4696 beforeH6440 the priestsH3548 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, from beside the incenseH7004 altarH4196.
And AzariahH5838 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and all the priestsH3548, lookedH6437 upon him, and, behold, he was leprousH6879 in his foreheadH4696, and they thrust him outH926 from thence; yea, himself hastedH1765 also to go outH3318, because the LORDH3068 had smittenH5060 him.
Yet it pleasedH2654 the LORDH3068 to bruiseH1792 him; he hath put him to griefH2470: when thou shalt makeH7760 his soulH5315 an offering for sinH817, he shall seeH7200 his seedH2233, he shall prolongH748 his daysH3117, and the pleasureH2656 of the LORDH3068 shall prosperH6743 in his handH3027. {thou…: or, his soul shall make an offering}
BetterH2896 is a dryH2720 morselH6595, and quietnessH7962 therewith, than an houseH1004 fullH4392 of sacrificesH2077 with strifeH7379. {sacrifices: or, good cheer}
A wiseH7919 servantH5650 shall have ruleH4910 over a sonH1121 that causeth shameH954, and shall have partH2505 of the inheritanceH5159 amongH8432 the brethrenH251.
The fining potH4715 is for silverH3701, and the furnaceH3564 for goldH2091: but the LORDH3068 triethH974 the heartsH3826.
A wicked doerH7489 giveth heedH7181 to falseH205 lipsH8193; and a liarH8267 giveth earH238 to a naughtyH1942 tongueH3956.
Whoso mockethH3932 the poorH7326 reproachethH2778 his MakerH6213: and he that is gladH8056 at calamitiesH343 shall not be unpunishedH5352. {unpunished: Heb. held innocent}
Children'sH1121 childrenH1121 are the crownH5850 of old menH2205; and the gloryH8597 of childrenH1121 are their fathersH1.
ExcellentH3499 speechH8193 becomethH5000 not a foolH5036: much less do lyingH8267 lipsH8193 a princeH5081. {Excellent…: Heb. A lip of excellency} {lying…: Heb. a lip of lying}
A giftH7810 is as a preciousH2580 stoneH68 in the eyesH5869 of him that hathH1167 it: whithersoever it turnethH6437, it prosperethH7919. {a precious…: Heb. a stone of grace}
He that coverethH3680 a transgressionH6588 seekethH1245 loveH160; but he that repeatethH8138 a matterH1697 separatethH6504 very friendsH441. {seeketh: or, procureth}
A reproofH1606 enterethH5181 more into a wise manH995 than an hundredH3967 stripesH5221 into a foolH3684. {entereth…: or, aweth more a wise man, than to strike a fool an hundred times}
An evilH7451 man seekethH1245 only rebellionH4805: therefore a cruelH394 messengerH4397 shall be sentH7971 against him.
Let a bearH1677 robbedH7909 of her whelps meetH6298 a manH376, rather thanH408 a foolH3684 in his follyH200.
Whoso rewardethH7725 evilH7451 for goodH2896, evilH7451 shall not departH4185+H4185 from his houseH1004.
The beginningH7225 of strifeH4066 is as when one letteth outH6362 waterH4325: therefore leave offH5203 contentionH7379, beforeH6440 it be meddledH1566 with.
He that justifiethH6663 the wickedH7563, and he that condemnethH7561 the justH6662, even they bothH8147 are abominationH8441 to the LORDH3068.
Wherefore is there a priceH4242 in the handH3027 of a foolH3684 to getH7069 wisdomH2451, seeing he hath no heartH3820 to it?
A friendH7453 lovethH157 at all timesH6256, and a brotherH251 is bornH3205 for adversityH6869.
A manH120 voidH2638 of understandingH3820 strikethH8628 handsH3709, and becomethH6148 suretyH6161 in the presenceH6440 of his friendH7453. {understanding: Heb. heart}
He lovethH157 transgressionH6588 that lovethH157 strifeH4683: and he that exaltethH1361 his gateH6607 seekethH1245 destructionH7667.
He that hath a frowardH6141 heartH3820 findethH4672 no goodH2896: and he that hath a perverseH2015 tongueH3956 fallethH5307 into mischiefH7451. {He that hath a froward…: Heb. The froward of heart}
He that begettethH3205 a foolH3684 doeth it to his sorrowH8424: and the fatherH1 of a foolH5036 hath no joyH8055.
A merryH8056 heartH3820 doeth goodH3190 like a medicineH1456: but a brokenH5218 spiritH7307 driethH3001 the bonesH1634. {like: or, to}
A wickedH7563 man takethH3947 a giftH7810 out of the bosomH2436 to pervertH5186 the waysH734 of judgmentH4941.
WisdomH2451 is before him that hath understandingH6440+H995; but the eyesH5869 of a foolH3684 are in the endsH7097 of the earthH776.
A foolishH3684 sonH1121 is a griefH3708 to his fatherH1, and bitternessH4470 to her that bareH3205 him.
Also to punishH6064 the justH6662 is not goodH2896, nor to strikeH5221 princesH5081 for equityH3476.
He that hathH3045 knowledgeH1847 sparethH2820 his wordsH561: and a manH376 of understandingH8394 is of an excellentH3368+H7119 spiritH7307. {an…: or, a cool}
Even a foolH191, when he holdeth his peaceH2790, is countedH2803 wiseH2450: and he that shuttethH331 his lipsH8193 is esteemed a man of understandingH995.
A manH120 voidH2638 of understandingH3820 strikethH8628 handsH3709, and becomethH6148 suretyH6161 in the presenceH6440 of his friendH7453. {understanding: Heb. heart}
