Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JonahH3124 the sonH1121 of AmittaiH573, sayingH559, {Jonah: Gr. Jonas}
AriseH6965, goH3212 to NinevehH5210, that greatH1419 cityH5892, and cryH7121 against it; for their wickednessH7451 is come upH5927 beforeH6440 me.
But JonahH3124 rose upH6965 to fleeH1272 unto TarshishH8659 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and went downH3381 to JoppaH3305; and he foundH4672 a shipH591 goingH935 to TarshishH8659: so he paidH5414 the fareH7939 thereof, and went downH3381 into it, to goH935 with them unto TarshishH8659 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068.
But the LORDH3068 sent outH2904 a greatH1419 windH7307 into the seaH3220, and there was a mightyH1419 tempestH5591 in the seaH3220, so that the shipH591 was likeH2803 to be brokenH7665. {sent out: Heb. cast forth} {was like…: Heb. thought to be broken}
Then the marinersH4419 were afraidH3372, and criedH2199 every manH376 unto his godH430, and cast forthH2904 the waresH3627 that were in the shipH591 into the seaH3220, to lightenH7043 it of them. But JonahH3124 was gone downH3381 into the sidesH3411 of the shipH5600; and he layH7901, and was fast asleepH7290.
So the shipmasterH7227+H2259 cameH7126 to him, and saidH559 unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeperH7290? ariseH6965, callH7121 upon thy GodH430, if so be that GodH430 will thinkH6245 upon us, that we perishH6 not.
And they saidH559 every oneH376 to his fellowH7453, ComeH3212, and let us castH5307 lotsH1486, that we may knowH3045 for whose causeH7945 this evilH7451 is upon us. So they castH5307 lotsH1486, and the lotH1486 fellH5307 upon JonahH3124.
Then saidH559 they unto him, TellH5046 us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evilH7451 is upon us; What is thine occupationH4399? and whenceH370 comestH935 thou? what is thy countryH776? and of what peopleH5971 art thou?
And he saidH559 unto them, I am an HebrewH5680; and I fearH3373 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of heavenH8064, which hath madeH6213 the seaH3220 and the dryH3004 land. {the LORD: or, JEHOVAH}
Then were the menH582 exceedinglyH1419+H3374 afraidH3372, and saidH559 unto him, Why hast thou doneH6213 this? For the menH582 knewH3045 that he fledH1272 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, because he had toldH5046 them. {exceedingly…: Heb. with great fear}
Then saidH559 they unto him, What shall we doH6213 unto thee, that the seaH3220 may be calmH8367 unto us? for the seaH3220 wroughtH1980, and was tempestuousH5590. {may…: Heb. may be silent from us} {wrought…: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}
And he saidH559 unto them, Take me upH5375, and cast me forthH2904 into the seaH3220; so shall the seaH3220 be calmH8367 unto you: for I knowH3045 that for my sakeH7945 this greatH1419 tempestH5591 is upon you.
Nevertheless the menH582 rowed hardH2864 to bringH7725 it to the landH3004; but they couldH3201 not: for the seaH3220 wroughtH1980, and was tempestuousH5590 against them. {rowed: Heb. digged} {wrought…: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}
Wherefore they criedH7121 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, We beseech theeH577, O LORDH3068, we beseech thee, let us not perishH6 for this man'sH376 lifeH5315, and layH5414 not upon us innocentH5355 bloodH1818: for thou, O LORDH3068, hast doneH6213 as it pleasedH2654 thee.
So they took upH5375 JonahH3124, and cast him forthH2904 into the seaH3220: and the seaH3220 ceasedH5975 from her ragingH2197. {ceased: Heb. stood}
Then the menH582 fearedH3372 the LORDH3068 exceedinglyH1419+H3374, and offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 unto the LORDH3068, and madeH5087 vowsH5088. {offered…: Heb. sacrifice unto the LORD, and vowed vows}
Now the LORDH3068 had preparedH4487 a greatH1419 fishH1709 to swallow upH1104 JonahH3124. And JonahH3124 was in the bellyH4578 of the fishH1709 threeH7969 daysH3117 and threeH7969 nightsH3915. {belly: Heb. bowels}
He restoredH7725 the coastH1366 of IsraelH3478 from the enteringH935 of HamathH2574 unto the seaH3220 of the plainH6160, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, which he spakeH1696 by the handH3027 of his servantH5650 JonahH3124, the sonH1121 of AmittaiH573, the prophetH5030, which was of GathhepherH1662.
He restoredH7725 the coastH1366 of IsraelH3478 from the enteringH935 of HamathH2574 unto the seaH3220 of the plainH6160, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, which he spakeH1696 by the handH3027 of his servantH5650 JonahH3124, the sonH1121 of AmittaiH573, the prophetH5030, which was of GathhepherH1662.
For the LORDH3068 sawH7200 the afflictionH6040 of IsraelH3478, that it was veryH3966 bitterH4784: for there was notH657 any shut upH6113, nor any leftH5800, nor any helperH5826 for IsraelH3478.
And the LORDH3068 saidH1696 not that he would blot outH4229 the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478 from under heavenH8064: but he savedH3467 them by the handH3027 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101.
ForG1063 yeG5210, brethrenG80, becameG1096 followersG3402 of the churchesG1577 of GodG2316 whichG3588 inG1722 JudaeaG2449 areG5607 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424: forG3754 yeG5210 alsoG2532 have sufferedG3958 like thingsG5024 ofG5259 your ownG2398 countrymenG4853, evenG2532 asG2531 they haveG846 ofG5259 the JewsG2453:
Who bothG2532 killedG615 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 their ownG2398 prophetsG4396, andG2532 have persecutedG1559 usG2248; andG2532 they pleaseG700 notG3361 GodG2316, andG2532 are contraryG1727 to allG3956 menG444: {persecuted us: or, chased us out}
ForbiddingG2967 usG2248 to speakG2980 to the GentilesG1484 thatG2443 they might be savedG4982, toG1519 fill upG378 theirG846 sinsG266 alwayG3842: forG1161 the wrathG3709 is comeG5348 uponG1909 themG846 toG1519 the uttermostG5056.
Whither shall I goH3212 from thy spiritH7307? or whither shall I fleeH1272 from thy presenceH6440?
If I ascend upH5266 into heavenH8064, thou art there: if I make my bedH3331 in hellH7585, behold, thou art there.
If I takeH5375 the wingsH3671 of the morningH7837, and dwellH7931 in the uttermost partsH319 of the seaH3220;
Even there shall thy handH3027 leadH5148 me, and thy right handH3225 shall holdH270 me.
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.
Run ye to and froH7751 through the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, and seeH7200 now, and knowH3045, and seekH1245 in the broad placesH7339 thereof, if ye can findH4672 a manH376, if there beH3426 any that executethH6213 judgmentH4941, that seekethH1245 the truthH530; and I will pardonH5545 it.
And though they sayH559, The LORDH3068 livethH2416; surely they swearH7650 falselyH8267.
O LORDH3068, are not thine eyesH5869 upon the truthH530? thou hast strickenH5221 them, but they have not grievedH2342; thou hast consumedH3615 them, but they have refusedH3985 to receiveH3947 correctionH4148: they have made their facesH6440 harderH2388 than a rockH5553; they have refusedH3985 to returnH7725.
And it came to pass in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, in the sixthH8345 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I satH3427 in mine houseH1004, and the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063 satH3427 beforeH6440 me, that the handH3027 of the LordH136 GODH3069 fellH5307 there upon me.
Then I beheldH7200, and lo a likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784: from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even downwardH4295, fireH784; and from his loinsH4975 even upwardH4605, as the appearanceH4758 of brightnessH2096, as the colourH5869 of amberH2830.
And he put forthH7971 the formH8403 of an handH3027, and tookH3947 me by a lockH6734 of mine headH7218; and the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375 between the earthH776 and the heavenH8064, and broughtH935 me in the visionsH4759 of GodH430 to JerusalemH3389, to the doorH6607 of the innerH6442 gateH8179 that lookethH6437 toward the northH6828; where was the seatH4186 of the imageH5566 of jealousyH7068, which provoketh to jealousyH7069.
And, behold, the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was there, according to the visionH4758 that I sawH7200 in the plainH1237.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 now the wayH1870 toward the northH6828. So I lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869 the wayH1870 toward the northH6828, and behold northwardH6828 at the gateH8179 of the altarH4196 this imageH5566 of jealousyH7068 in the entryH872.
He saidH559 furthermore unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, seestH7200 thou what they doH6213? even the greatH1419 abominationsH8441 that the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 committethH6213 here, that I should go far offH7368 from my sanctuaryH4720? but turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441.
And he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the courtH2691; and when I lookedH7200, behold aH259 holeH2356 in the wallH7023.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, digH2864 now in the wallH7023: and when I had diggedH2864 in the wallH7023, behold aH259 doorH6607.
And he saidH559 unto me, Go inH935, and beholdH7200 the wickedH7451 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213 here.
So I went inH935 and sawH7200; and behold every formH8403 of creeping thingsH7431, and abominableH8263 beastsH929, and all the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, pourtrayedH2707 upon the wallH7023 round aboutH5439.
And there stoodH5975 beforeH6440 them seventyH7657 menH376 of the ancientsH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and in the midstH8432 of them stoodH5975 JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, with every manH376 his censerH4730 in his handH3027; and a thickH6282 cloudH6051 of incenseH7004 went upH5927.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, hast thou seenH7200 what the ancientsH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 doH6213 in the darkH2822, every manH376 in the chambersH2315 of his imageryH4906? for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 seethH7200 us not; the LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776.
He saidH559 also unto me, TurnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213.
Then he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 which was toward the northH6828; and, behold, there satH3427 womenH802 weepingH1058 for TammuzH8542.
Then saidH559 he unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 than these.
And he broughtH935 me into the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and, behold, at the doorH6607 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, were about fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376, with their backsH268 toward the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, and their facesH6440 toward the eastH6924; and they worshippedH7812 the sunH8121 toward the eastH6924.
Then he saidH559 unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? Is it a light thingH7043 to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 that they commitH6213 the abominationsH8441 which they commitH6213 here? for they have filledH4390 the landH776 with violenceH2555, and have returnedH7725 to provoke me to angerH3707: and, lo, they putH7971 the branchH2156 to their noseH639. {Is it…: or, Is there any thing lighter than to commit}
Therefore will I also dealH6213 in furyH2534: mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347, neither will I have pityH2550: and though they cryH7121 in mine earsH241 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, yet will I not hearH8085 them.
He criedH7121 also in mine earsH241 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, sayingH559, Cause them that have chargeH6486 over the cityH5892 to draw nearH7126, even every manH376 with his destroyingH4892 weaponH3627 in his handH3027.
And, behold, sixH8337 menH582 cameH935 from the wayH1870 of the higherH5945 gateH8179, which liethH6437 toward the northH6828, and every manH376 a slaughterH4660 weaponH3627 in his handH3027; and oneH259 manH376 amongH8432 them was clothedH3847 with linenH906, with a writer'sH5608 inkhornH7083 by his sideH4975: and they went inH935, and stoodH5975 besideH681 the brasenH5178 altarH4196. {which lieth: Heb. which is turned} {a slaughter…: Heb. a weapon of his breaking in pieces} {by his…: Heb. upon his loins}
And the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was gone upH5927 from the cherubH3742, whereupon he was, to the thresholdH4670 of the houseH1004. And he calledH7121 to the manH376 clothedH3847 with linenH906, which had the writer'sH5608 inkhornH7083 by his sideH4975;
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, Go throughH5674 the midstH8432 of the cityH5892, through the midstH8432 of JerusalemH3389, and setH8427 a markH8420 upon the foreheadsH4696 of the menH582 that sighH584 and that cryH602 for all the abominationsH8441 that be doneH6213 in the midstH8432 thereof. {set a mark: Heb. mark a mark}
And to the othersH428 he saidH559 in mine hearingH241, GoH5674 ye afterH310 him through the cityH5892, and smiteH5221: let not your eyeH5869 spareH2347, neither have ye pityH2550: {mine hearing: Heb. mine ears}
SlayH2026 utterlyH4889 oldH2205 and youngH970, both maidsH1330, and little childrenH2945, and womenH802: but come not nearH5066 any manH376 upon whom is the markH8420; and beginH2490 at my sanctuaryH4720. Then they beganH2490 at the ancientH2205 menH582 which were beforeH6440 the houseH1004. {utterly: Heb. to destruction}
And he saidH559 unto them, DefileH2930 the houseH1004, and fillH4390 the courtsH2691 with the slainH2491: go ye forthH3318. And they went forthH3318, and slewH5221 in the cityH5892.
And it came to pass, while they were slayingH5221 them, and I was leftH7604, that I fellH5307 upon my faceH6440, and criedH2199, and saidH559, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! wilt thou destroyH7843 all the residueH7611 of IsraelH3478 in thy pouring outH8210 of thy furyH2534 upon JerusalemH3389?
Then saidH559 he unto me, The iniquityH5771 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063 is exceedingH3966+H3966 greatH1419, and the landH776 is fullH4390 of bloodH1818, and the cityH5892 fullH4390 of perversenessH4297: for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776, and the LORDH3068 seethH7200 not. {full of blood: Heb. filled with, etc} {perverseness: or, wresting of judgment}
And as for me also, mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347, neither will I have pityH2550, but I will recompenseH5414 their wayH1870 upon their headH7218.
And, behold, the manH376 clothedH3847 with linenH906, which had the inkhornH7083 by his sideH4975, reportedH7725 the matterH1697, sayingH559, I have doneH6213 as thou hast commandedH6680 me. {reported…: Heb. returned the word}
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.
For thou art an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath chosenH977 thee to be a specialH5459 peopleH5971 unto himself, above all peopleH5971 that are upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127.
The LORDH3068 did not set his loveH2836 upon you, nor chooseH977 you, because ye were moreH7230 in number than any peopleH5971; for ye were the fewestH4592 of all peopleH5971:
But because the LORDH3068 lovedH160 you, and because he would keepH8104 the oathH7621 which he had swornH7650 unto your fathersH1, hath the LORDH3068 brought you outH3318 with a mightyH2389 handH3027, and redeemedH6299 you out of the houseH1004 of bondmenH5650, from the handH3027 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714.
ForbiddingG2967 usG2248 to speakG2980 to the GentilesG1484 thatG2443 they might be savedG4982, toG1519 fill upG378 theirG846 sinsG266 alwayG3842: forG1161 the wrathG3709 is comeG5348 uponG1909 themG846 toG1519 the uttermostG5056.
Therefore waitH2442 ye upon me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, until the dayH3117 that I rise upH6965 to the preyH5706: for my determinationH4941 is to gatherH622 the nationsH1471, that I may assembleH6908 the kingdomsH4467, to pourH8210 upon them mine indignationH2195, even all my fierceH2740 angerH639: for all the earthH776 shall be devouredH398 with the fireH784 of my jealousyH7068.
For then will I turnH2015 to the peopleH5971 a pureH1305 languageH8193, that they may all callH7121 upon the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, to serveH5647 him with oneH259 consentH7926. {language: Heb. lip} {consent: Heb. shoulder}
