MaschilH4905 of EthanH387 the EzrahiteH250. I will singH7891 of the merciesH2617 of the LORDH3068 for everH5769: with my mouthH6310 will I make knownH3045 thy faithfulnessH530 to allH1755 generationsH1755. {Maschil…: or, A Psalm for Ethan the Ezrahite, to give instruction} {to all…: Heb. to generation and generation}
For I have saidH559, MercyH2617 shall be built upH1129 for everH5769: thy faithfulnessH530 shalt thou establishH3559 in the very heavensH8064.
I have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with my chosenH972, I have swornH7650 unto DavidH1732 my servantH5650,
Thy seedH2233 will I establishH3559 forH5704 everH5769, and build upH1129 thy throneH3678 to allH1755 generationsH1755. SelahH5542.
And the heavensH8064 shall praiseH3034 thy wondersH6382, O LORDH3068: thy faithfulnessH530 also in the congregationH6951 of the saintsH6918.
For who in the heavenH7834 can be comparedH6186 unto the LORDH3068? who among the sonsH1121 of the mightyH410 can be likenedH1819 unto the LORDH3068?
GodH410 is greatlyH7227 to be fearedH6206 in the assemblyH5475 of the saintsH6918, and to be had in reverenceH3372 of all them that are aboutH5439 him.
O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, who is a strongH2626 LORDH3050 like unto thee? or to thy faithfulnessH530 round aboutH5439 thee?
Thou rulestH4910 the ragingH1348 of the seaH3220: when the wavesH1530 thereof ariseH7721, thou stillestH7623 them.
Thou hast brokenH1792 RahabH7294 in piecesH1792, as one that is slainH2491; thou hast scatteredH6340 thine enemiesH341 with thy strongH5797 armH2220. {Rahab: or, Egypt} {thy…: Heb. the arm of thy strength}
The heavensH8064 are thine, the earthH776 also is thine: as for the worldH8398 and the fulnessH4393 thereof, thou hast foundedH3245 them. {the fulness…: or, all it containeth}
The northH6828 and the southH3225 thou hast createdH1254 them: TaborH8396 and HermonH2768 shall rejoiceH7442 in thy nameH8034.
Thou hast a mightyH1369 armH2220: strongH5810 is thy handH3027, and highH7311 is thy right handH3225. {a…: Heb. an arm with might}
JusticeH6664 and judgmentH4941 are the habitationH4349 of thy throneH3678: mercyH2617 and truthH571 shall goH6923 before thy faceH6440. {habitation: or, establishment}
BlessedH835 is the peopleH5971 that knowH3045 the joyful soundH8643: they shall walkH1980, O LORDH3068, in the lightH216 of thy countenanceH6440.
In thy nameH8034 shall they rejoiceH1523 all the dayH3117: and in thy righteousnessH6666 shall they be exaltedH7311.
For thou art the gloryH8597 of their strengthH5797: and in thy favourH7522 our hornH7161 shall be exaltedH7311+H7311.
For the LORDH3068 is our defenceH4043; and the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 is our kingH4428. {the LORD…: or, our shield is of the LORD, and our king is of the Holy One of Israel}
Then thou spakestH1696 in visionH2377 to thy holy oneH2623, and saidstH559, I have laidH7737 helpH5828 upon one that is mightyH1368; I have exaltedH7311 one chosenH977 out of the peopleH5971.
I have foundH4672 DavidH1732 my servantH5650; with my holyH6944 oilH8081 have I anointedH4886 him:
With whom my handH3027 shall be establishedH3559: mine armH2220 also shall strengthenH553 him.
The enemyH341 shall not exactH5378 upon him; nor the sonH1121 of wickednessH5766 afflictH6031 him.
And I will beat downH3807 his foesH6862 before his faceH6440, and plagueH5062 them that hateH8130 him.
But my faithfulnessH530 and my mercyH2617 shall be with him: and in my nameH8034 shall his hornH7161 be exaltedH7311.
I will setH7760 his handH3027 also in the seaH3220, and his right handH3225 in the riversH5104.
He shall cryH7121 unto me, Thou art my fatherH1, my GodH410, and the rockH6697 of my salvationH3444.
Also I will makeH5414 him my firstbornH1060, higherH5945 than the kingsH4428 of the earthH776.
My mercyH2617 will I keepH8104 for him for evermoreH5769, and my covenantH1285 shall stand fastH539 with him.
His seedH2233 also will I makeH7760 to endure for everH5703, and his throneH3678 as the daysH3117 of heavenH8064.
If his childrenH1121 forsakeH5800 my lawH8451, and walkH3212 not in my judgmentsH4941;
If they breakH2490 my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 not my commandmentsH4687; {break: Heb. profane}
Then will I visitH6485 their transgressionH6588 with the rodH7626, and their iniquityH5771 with stripesH5061.
Nevertheless my lovingkindnessH2617 will I not utterly takeH6331 from him, nor suffer my faithfulnessH530 to failH8266. {will…: Heb. I will not make void from him} {to fall: Heb. to lie}
My covenantH1285 will I not breakH2490, nor alterH8138 the thing that is gone outH4161 of my lipsH8193.
OnceH259 have I swornH7650 by my holinessH6944 that I will not lieH3576 unto DavidH1732. {that…: Heb. if I lie}
His seedH2233 shall endure for everH5769, and his throneH3678 as the sunH8121 before me.
It shall be establishedH3559 for everH5769 as the moonH3394, and as a faithfulH539 witnessH5707 in heavenH7834. SelahH5542.
But thou hast cast offH2186 and abhorredH3988, thou hast been wrothH5674 with thine anointedH4899.
Thou hast made voidH5010 the covenantH1285 of thy servantH5650: thou hast profanedH2490 his crownH5145 by casting it to the groundH776.
Thou hast broken downH6555 all his hedgesH1448; thou hast broughtH7760 his strong holdsH4013 to ruinH4288.
All that pass byH5674 the wayH1870 spoilH8155 him: he is a reproachH2781 to his neighboursH7934.
Thou hast set upH7311 the right handH3225 of his adversariesH6862; thou hast made all his enemiesH341 to rejoiceH8055.
Thou hast also turnedH7725 the edgeH6697 of his swordH2719, and hast not made him to standH6965 in the battleH4421.
Thou hast made his gloryH2892 to ceaseH7673, and castH4048 his throneH3678 downH4048 to the groundH776. {glory: Heb. brightness}
The daysH3117 of his youthH5934 hast thou shortenedH7114: thou hast coveredH5844 him with shameH955. SelahH5542.
How long, LORDH3068? wilt thou hideH5641 thyself for everH5331? shall thy wrathH2534 burnH1197 like fireH784?
RememberH2142 how shortH2465 my time is: wherefore hast thou madeH1254 all menH1121+H120 in vainH7723?
What manH1397 is he that livethH2421, and shall not seeH7200 deathH4194? shall he deliverH4422 his soulH5315 from the handH3027 of the graveH7585? SelahH5542.
LordH136, where are thy formerH7223 lovingkindnessesH2617, which thou swarestH7650 unto DavidH1732 in thy truthH530?
RememberH2142, LordH136, the reproachH2781 of thy servantsH5650; how I do bearH5375 in my bosomH2436 the reproach of all the mightyH7227 peopleH5971;
Wherewith thine enemiesH341 have reproachedH2778, O LORDH3068; wherewith they have reproachedH2778 the footstepsH6119 of thine anointedH4899.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 for evermoreH5769. AmenH543, and AmenH543.

To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 for the sonsH1121 of KorahH7141. LORDH3068, thou hast been favourableH7521 unto thy landH776: thou hast brought backH7725 the captivityH7622+H7622 of JacobH3290. {for the sons: or, of the sons} {favourable: or, well pleased}
Thou hast forgivenH5375 the iniquityH5771 of thy peopleH5971, thou hast coveredH3680 all their sinH2403. SelahH5542.
Thou hast taken awayH622 all thy wrathH5678: thou hast turnedH7725 thyself from the fiercenessH2740 of thine angerH639. {thyself…: or, thine anger from waxing hot}
TurnH7725 us, O GodH430 of our salvationH3468, and cause thine angerH3708 toward us to ceaseH6565.
Wilt thou be angryH599 with us for everH5769? wilt thou draw outH4900 thine angerH639 to allH1755 generationsH1755?
Wilt thou not reviveH2421 us againH7725: that thy peopleH5971 may rejoiceH8055 in thee?
ShewH7200 us thy mercyH2617, O LORDH3068, and grantH5414 us thy salvationH3468.
I will hearH8085 what GodH410 the LORDH3068 will speakH1696: for he will speakH1696 peaceH7965 unto his peopleH5971, and to his saintsH2623: but let them not turn againH7725 to follyH3690.
Surely his salvationH3468 is nighH7138 them that fearH3373 him; that gloryH3519 may dwellH7931 in our landH776.
MercyH2617 and truthH571 are met togetherH6298; righteousnessH6664 and peaceH7965 have kissedH5401 each other.
TruthH571 shall spring outH6779 of the earthH776; and righteousnessH6664 shall look downH8259 from heavenH8064.
Yea, the LORDH3068 shall giveH5414 that which is goodH2896; and our landH776 shall yieldH5414 her increaseH2981.
RighteousnessH6664 shall goH1980 beforeH6440 him; and shall setH7760 us in the wayH1870 of his stepsH6471.
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. GodH430 standethH5324 in the congregationH5712 of the mightyH410; he judgethH8199 amongH7130 the godsH430. {of Asaph: or, for Asaph}
How long will ye judgeH8199 unjustlyH5766, and acceptH5375 the personsH6440 of the wickedH7563? SelahH5542.
DefendH8199 the poorH1800 and fatherlessH3490: do justiceH6663 to the afflictedH6041 and needyH7326. {Defend: Heb. Judge}
DeliverH6403 the poorH1800 and needyH34: ridH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the wickedH7563.
They knowH3045 not, neither will they understandH995; they walkH1980 on in darknessH2825: all the foundationsH4144 of the earthH776 are out of courseH4131. {out…: Heb. moved}
I have saidH559, Ye are godsH430; and all of you are childrenH1121 of the most HighH5945.
ButH403 ye shall dieH4191 like menH120, and fallH5307 like oneH259 of the princesH8269.
AriseH6965, O GodH430, judgeH8199 the earthH776: for thou shalt inheritH5157 all nationsH1471.
I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which broughtH5927 thee out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: open thy mouthH6310 wideH7337, and I will fillH4390 it.
But my peopleH5971 would not hearkenH8085 to my voiceH6963; and IsraelH3478 wouldH14 none of me.
So I gave them upH7971 unto their own hearts'H3820 lustH8307: and they walkedH3212 in their own counselsH4156. {unto…: or, to the hardness of their hearts, or, imagination}
OhH3863 that my peopleH5971 had hearkenedH8085 unto me, and IsraelH3478 had walkedH1980 in my waysH1870!
I should soonH4592 have subduedH3665 their enemiesH341, and turnedH7725 my handH3027 against their adversariesH6862.
The hatersH8130 of the LORDH3068 should have submittedH3584 themselves unto him: but their timeH6256 should have endured for everH5769. {submitted…: or, yielded feigned obedience: Heb. lied}
He should have fedH398 them also with the finestH2459 of the wheatH2406: and with honeyH1706 out of the rockH6697 should I have satisfiedH7646 thee. {finest…: Heb. fat of wheat}
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon ShoshannimeduthH7802, A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Give earH238, O ShepherdH7462 of IsraelH3478, thou that leadestH5090 JosephH3130 like a flockH6629; thou that dwellestH3427 between the cherubimsH3742, shine forthH3313. {of: or, for}
BeforeH6440 EphraimH669 and BenjaminH1144 and ManassehH4519 stir upH5782 thy strengthH1369, and comeH3212 and saveH3444 us. {come…: Heb. come for salvation to us}
Turn us againH7725, O GodH430, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215; and we shall be savedH3467.
O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, how long wilt thou be angryH6225 against the prayerH8605 of thy peopleH5971? {be…: Heb. smoke}
Thou feedestH398 them with the breadH3899 of tearsH1832; and givest them tearsH1832 to drinkH8248 in great measureH7991.
Thou makestH7760 us a strifeH4066 unto our neighboursH7934: and our enemiesH341 laughH3932 among themselves.
Turn us againH7725, O GodH430 of hostsH6635, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215; and we shall be savedH3467.
Thou hast broughtH5265 a vineH1612 out of EgyptH4714: thou hast cast outH1644 the heathenH1471, and plantedH5193 it.
Thou preparedstH6437 room beforeH6440 it, and didst cause it to take deepH8328 rootH8327, and it filledH4390 the landH776.
The hillsH2022 were coveredH3680 with the shadowH6738 of it, and the boughsH6057 thereof were like the goodlyH410 cedarsH730. {goodly…: Heb. cedars of God}
She sent outH7971 her boughsH7105 unto the seaH3220, and her branchesH3127 unto the riverH5104.
Why hast thou then broken downH6555 her hedgesH1447, so that all they which passH5674 by the wayH1870 do pluckH717 her?
The boarH2386 out of the woodH3293 doth wasteH3765 it, and the wild beastH2123 of the fieldH7704 doth devourH7462 it.
ReturnH7725, we beseech thee, O GodH430 of hostsH6635: look downH5027 from heavenH8064, and beholdH7200, and visitH6485 this vineH1612;
And the vineyardH3657+H3661 which thy right handH3225 hath plantedH5193, and the branchH1121 that thou madest strongH553 for thyself.
It is burnedH8313 with fireH784, it is cut downH3683: they perishH6 at the rebukeH1606 of thy countenanceH6440.
Let thy handH3027 be upon the manH376 of thy right handH3225, upon the sonH1121 of manH120 whom thou madest strongH553 for thyself.
So will not we go backH5472 from thee: quickenH2421 us, and we will callH7121 upon thy nameH8034.
Turn us againH7725, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215; and we shall be savedH3467.
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. O GodH430, the heathenH1471 are comeH935 into thine inheritanceH5159; thy holyH6944 templeH1964 have they defiledH2930; they have laidH7760 JerusalemH3389 on heapsH5856. {of: or, for}
The dead bodiesH5038 of thy servantsH5650 have they givenH5414 to be meatH3978 unto the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064, the fleshH1320 of thy saintsH2623 unto the beastsH2416 of the earthH776.
Their bloodH1818 have they shedH8210 like waterH4325 round aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389; and there was none to buryH6912 them.
We are become a reproachH2781 to our neighboursH7934, a scornH3933 and derisionH7047 to them that are round aboutH5439 us.
How long, LORDH3068? wilt thou be angryH599 for everH5331? shall thy jealousyH7068 burnH1197 like fireH784?
Pour outH8210 thy wrathH2534 upon the heathenH1471 that have not knownH3045 thee, and upon the kingdomsH4467 that have not calledH7121 upon thy nameH8034.
For they have devouredH398 JacobH3290, and laid wasteH8074 his dwelling placeH5116.
O rememberH2142 not against us formerH7223 iniquitiesH5771: let thy tender merciesH7356 speedilyH4118 preventH6923 us: for we are broughtH1809 veryH3966 lowH1809. {former…: or, the iniquities of them that were before us}
HelpH5826 us, O GodH430 of our salvationH3468, forH1697 the gloryH3519 of thy nameH8034: and deliverH5337 us, and purge awayH3722 our sinsH2403, for thy name'sH8034 sake.
Wherefore should the heathenH1471 sayH559, Where is their GodH430? let him be knownH3045 among the heathenH1471 in our sightH5869 by the revengingH5360 of the bloodH1818 of thy servantsH5650 which is shedH8210. {revenging: Heb. vengeance}
Let the sighingH603 of the prisonerH615 comeH935 beforeH6440 thee; according to the greatnessH1433 of thy powerH2220 preserveH3498 thou those that are appointedH1121 to dieH8546; {thy…: Heb. thine arm} {preserve…: Heb. reserve the children of death}
And renderH7725 unto our neighboursH7934 sevenfoldH7659 into their bosomH2436 their reproachH2781, wherewith they have reproachedH2778 thee, O LordH136.
So we thy peopleH5971 and sheepH6629 of thy pastureH4830 will give thee thanksH3034 for everH5769: we will shew forthH5608 thy praiseH8416 to allH1755 generationsH1755. {to all…: Heb. to generation and generation}
A SongH7892 or PsalmH4210 for the sonsH1121 of KorahH7141, to the chief MusicianH5329 upon MahalathH4257 LeannothH6031, MaschilH4905 of HemanH1968 the EzrahiteH250. O LORDH3068 GodH430 of my salvationH3444, I have criedH6817 dayH3117 and nightH3915 before thee: {for the sons: or, of the sons} {Maschil…: or, A Psalm of Heman the Ezrahite, giving instruction}
Let my prayerH8605 comeH935 beforeH6440 thee: inclineH5186 thine earH241 unto my cryH7440;
For my soulH5315 is fullH7646 of troublesH7451: and my lifeH2416 draweth nighH5060 unto the graveH7585.
I am countedH2803 with them that go downH3381 into the pitH953: I am as a manH1397 that hath no strengthH353:
FreeH2670 among the deadH4191, like the slainH2491 that lieH7901 in the graveH6913, whom thou rememberestH2142 no more: and they are cut offH1504 from thy handH3027. {from: or, by}
Thou hast laidH7896 me in the lowestH8482 pitH953, in darknessH4285, in the deepsH4688.
Thy wrathH2534 lieth hardH5564 upon me, and thou hast afflictedH6031 me with all thy wavesH4867. SelahH5542.
Thou hast put awayH7368 mine acquaintanceH3045 farH7368 from me; thou hast madeH7896 me an abominationH8441 unto them: I am shut upH3607, and I cannot come forthH3318.
Mine eyeH5869 mournethH1669 by reason of afflictionH6040: LORDH3068, I have calledH7121 dailyH3117 upon thee, I have stretched outH7849 my handsH3709 unto thee.
Wilt thou shewH6213 wondersH6382 to the deadH4191? shall the deadH7496 ariseH6965 and praiseH3034 thee? SelahH5542.
Shall thy lovingkindnessH2617 be declaredH5608 in the graveH6913? or thy faithfulnessH530 in destructionH11?
Shall thy wondersH6382 be knownH3045 in the darkH2822? and thy righteousnessH6666 in the landH776 of forgetfulnessH5388?
But unto thee have I criedH7768, O LORDH3068; and in the morningH1242 shall my prayerH8605 preventH6923 thee.
LORDH3068, why castest thou offH2186 my soulH5315? why hidestH5641 thou thy faceH6440 from me?
I am afflictedH6041 and ready to dieH1478 from my youthH5290 up: while I sufferH5375 thy terrorsH367 I am distractedH6323.
Thy fierce wrathH2740 goeth overH5674 me; thy terrorsH1161 have cut me offH6789.
They came round aboutH5437 me dailyH3117 like waterH4325; they compassedH5362 me about togetherH3162. {daily: or, all the day}
LoverH157 and friendH7453 hast thou put farH7368 from me, and mine acquaintanceH3045 into darknessH4285.
MaschilH4905 of EthanH387 the EzrahiteH250. I will singH7891 of the merciesH2617 of the LORDH3068 for everH5769: with my mouthH6310 will I make knownH3045 thy faithfulnessH530 to allH1755 generationsH1755. {Maschil…: or, A Psalm for Ethan the Ezrahite, to give instruction} {to all…: Heb. to generation and generation}
For I have saidH559, MercyH2617 shall be built upH1129 for everH5769: thy faithfulnessH530 shalt thou establishH3559 in the very heavensH8064.
I have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with my chosenH972, I have swornH7650 unto DavidH1732 my servantH5650,
Thy seedH2233 will I establishH3559 forH5704 everH5769, and build upH1129 thy throneH3678 to allH1755 generationsH1755. SelahH5542.
And the heavensH8064 shall praiseH3034 thy wondersH6382, O LORDH3068: thy faithfulnessH530 also in the congregationH6951 of the saintsH6918.
For who in the heavenH7834 can be comparedH6186 unto the LORDH3068? who among the sonsH1121 of the mightyH410 can be likenedH1819 unto the LORDH3068?
GodH410 is greatlyH7227 to be fearedH6206 in the assemblyH5475 of the saintsH6918, and to be had in reverenceH3372 of all them that are aboutH5439 him.
O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, who is a strongH2626 LORDH3050 like unto thee? or to thy faithfulnessH530 round aboutH5439 thee?
Thou rulestH4910 the ragingH1348 of the seaH3220: when the wavesH1530 thereof ariseH7721, thou stillestH7623 them.
Thou hast brokenH1792 RahabH7294 in piecesH1792, as one that is slainH2491; thou hast scatteredH6340 thine enemiesH341 with thy strongH5797 armH2220. {Rahab: or, Egypt} {thy…: Heb. the arm of thy strength}
The heavensH8064 are thine, the earthH776 also is thine: as for the worldH8398 and the fulnessH4393 thereof, thou hast foundedH3245 them. {the fulness…: or, all it containeth}
The northH6828 and the southH3225 thou hast createdH1254 them: TaborH8396 and HermonH2768 shall rejoiceH7442 in thy nameH8034.
Thou hast a mightyH1369 armH2220: strongH5810 is thy handH3027, and highH7311 is thy right handH3225. {a…: Heb. an arm with might}
JusticeH6664 and judgmentH4941 are the habitationH4349 of thy throneH3678: mercyH2617 and truthH571 shall goH6923 before thy faceH6440. {habitation: or, establishment}
BlessedH835 is the peopleH5971 that knowH3045 the joyful soundH8643: they shall walkH1980, O LORDH3068, in the lightH216 of thy countenanceH6440.
In thy nameH8034 shall they rejoiceH1523 all the dayH3117: and in thy righteousnessH6666 shall they be exaltedH7311.
For thou art the gloryH8597 of their strengthH5797: and in thy favourH7522 our hornH7161 shall be exaltedH7311+H7311.
For the LORDH3068 is our defenceH4043; and the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 is our kingH4428. {the LORD…: or, our shield is of the LORD, and our king is of the Holy One of Israel}
Then thou spakestH1696 in visionH2377 to thy holy oneH2623, and saidstH559, I have laidH7737 helpH5828 upon one that is mightyH1368; I have exaltedH7311 one chosenH977 out of the peopleH5971.
I have foundH4672 DavidH1732 my servantH5650; with my holyH6944 oilH8081 have I anointedH4886 him:
With whom my handH3027 shall be establishedH3559: mine armH2220 also shall strengthenH553 him.
The enemyH341 shall not exactH5378 upon him; nor the sonH1121 of wickednessH5766 afflictH6031 him.
And I will beat downH3807 his foesH6862 before his faceH6440, and plagueH5062 them that hateH8130 him.
But my faithfulnessH530 and my mercyH2617 shall be with him: and in my nameH8034 shall his hornH7161 be exaltedH7311.
I will setH7760 his handH3027 also in the seaH3220, and his right handH3225 in the riversH5104.
He shall cryH7121 unto me, Thou art my fatherH1, my GodH410, and the rockH6697 of my salvationH3444.
Also I will makeH5414 him my firstbornH1060, higherH5945 than the kingsH4428 of the earthH776.
My mercyH2617 will I keepH8104 for him for evermoreH5769, and my covenantH1285 shall stand fastH539 with him.
His seedH2233 also will I makeH7760 to endure for everH5703, and his throneH3678 as the daysH3117 of heavenH8064.
If his childrenH1121 forsakeH5800 my lawH8451, and walkH3212 not in my judgmentsH4941;
If they breakH2490 my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 not my commandmentsH4687; {break: Heb. profane}
Then will I visitH6485 their transgressionH6588 with the rodH7626, and their iniquityH5771 with stripesH5061.
Nevertheless my lovingkindnessH2617 will I not utterly takeH6331 from him, nor suffer my faithfulnessH530 to failH8266. {will…: Heb. I will not make void from him} {to fall: Heb. to lie}
My covenantH1285 will I not breakH2490, nor alterH8138 the thing that is gone outH4161 of my lipsH8193.
OnceH259 have I swornH7650 by my holinessH6944 that I will not lieH3576 unto DavidH1732. {that…: Heb. if I lie}
His seedH2233 shall endure for everH5769, and his throneH3678 as the sunH8121 before me.
It shall be establishedH3559 for everH5769 as the moonH3394, and as a faithfulH539 witnessH5707 in heavenH7834. SelahH5542.
But thou hast cast offH2186 and abhorredH3988, thou hast been wrothH5674 with thine anointedH4899.
Thou hast made voidH5010 the covenantH1285 of thy servantH5650: thou hast profanedH2490 his crownH5145 by casting it to the groundH776.
Thou hast broken downH6555 all his hedgesH1448; thou hast broughtH7760 his strong holdsH4013 to ruinH4288.
All that pass byH5674 the wayH1870 spoilH8155 him: he is a reproachH2781 to his neighboursH7934.
Thou hast set upH7311 the right handH3225 of his adversariesH6862; thou hast made all his enemiesH341 to rejoiceH8055.
Thou hast also turnedH7725 the edgeH6697 of his swordH2719, and hast not made him to standH6965 in the battleH4421.
Thou hast made his gloryH2892 to ceaseH7673, and castH4048 his throneH3678 downH4048 to the groundH776. {glory: Heb. brightness}
The daysH3117 of his youthH5934 hast thou shortenedH7114: thou hast coveredH5844 him with shameH955. SelahH5542.
How long, LORDH3068? wilt thou hideH5641 thyself for everH5331? shall thy wrathH2534 burnH1197 like fireH784?
RememberH2142 how shortH2465 my time is: wherefore hast thou madeH1254 all menH1121+H120 in vainH7723?
What manH1397 is he that livethH2421, and shall not seeH7200 deathH4194? shall he deliverH4422 his soulH5315 from the handH3027 of the graveH7585? SelahH5542.
LordH136, where are thy formerH7223 lovingkindnessesH2617, which thou swarestH7650 unto DavidH1732 in thy truthH530?
RememberH2142, LordH136, the reproachH2781 of thy servantsH5650; how I do bearH5375 in my bosomH2436 the reproach of all the mightyH7227 peopleH5971;
Wherewith thine enemiesH341 have reproachedH2778, O LORDH3068; wherewith they have reproachedH2778 the footstepsH6119 of thine anointedH4899.
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 for evermoreH5769. AmenH543, and AmenH543.
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon ShoshannimeduthH7802, A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. Give earH238, O ShepherdH7462 of IsraelH3478, thou that leadestH5090 JosephH3130 like a flockH6629; thou that dwellestH3427 between the cherubimsH3742, shine forthH3313. {of: or, for}
BeforeH6440 EphraimH669 and BenjaminH1144 and ManassehH4519 stir upH5782 thy strengthH1369, and comeH3212 and saveH3444 us. {come…: Heb. come for salvation to us}
Turn us againH7725, O GodH430, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215; and we shall be savedH3467.
O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, how long wilt thou be angryH6225 against the prayerH8605 of thy peopleH5971? {be…: Heb. smoke}
Thou feedestH398 them with the breadH3899 of tearsH1832; and givest them tearsH1832 to drinkH8248 in great measureH7991.
Thou makestH7760 us a strifeH4066 unto our neighboursH7934: and our enemiesH341 laughH3932 among themselves.
Turn us againH7725, O GodH430 of hostsH6635, and cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215; and we shall be savedH3467.
Thou hast broughtH5265 a vineH1612 out of EgyptH4714: thou hast cast outH1644 the heathenH1471, and plantedH5193 it.
Thou preparedstH6437 room beforeH6440 it, and didst cause it to take deepH8328 rootH8327, and it filledH4390 the landH776.
The hillsH2022 were coveredH3680 with the shadowH6738 of it, and the boughsH6057 thereof were like the goodlyH410 cedarsH730. {goodly…: Heb. cedars of God}
She sent outH7971 her boughsH7105 unto the seaH3220, and her branchesH3127 unto the riverH5104.
Why hast thou then broken downH6555 her hedgesH1447, so that all they which passH5674 by the wayH1870 do pluckH717 her?
The boarH2386 out of the woodH3293 doth wasteH3765 it, and the wild beastH2123 of the fieldH7704 doth devourH7462 it.
ReturnH7725, we beseech thee, O GodH430 of hostsH6635: look downH5027 from heavenH8064, and beholdH7200, and visitH6485 this vineH1612;
And the vineyardH3657+H3661 which thy right handH3225 hath plantedH5193, and the branchH1121 that thou madest strongH553 for thyself.
It is burnedH8313 with fireH784, it is cut downH3683: they perishH6 at the rebukeH1606 of thy countenanceH6440.
Let thy handH3027 be upon the manH376 of thy right handH3225, upon the sonH1121 of manH120 whom thou madest strongH553 for thyself.
So will not we go backH5472 from thee: quickenH2421 us, and we will callH7121 upon thy nameH8034.
Turn us againH7725, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, cause thy faceH6440 to shineH215; and we shall be savedH3467.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
OH1945 AssyrianH804, the rodH7626 of mine angerH639, and the staffH4294 in their handH3027 is mine indignationH2195. {O…: or, Woe to the Assyrian: Heb. Asshur} {and: or, though}
I will sendH7971 him against an hypocriticalH2611 nationH1471, and against the peopleH5971 of my wrathH5678 will I give him a chargeH6680, to takeH7997 the spoilH7998, and to takeH962 the preyH957, and to tread them downH7760+H4823 like the mireH2563 of the streetsH2351. {tread…: Heb. lay them a treading}
Howbeit he meanethH1819 not so, neither doth his heartH3824 thinkH2803 so; but it is in his heartH3824 to destroyH8045 and cut offH3772 nationsH1471 not a fewH4592.
For he saithH559, Are not my princesH8269 altogetherH3162 kingsH4428?
Is not CalnoH3641 as CarchemishH3751? is not HamathH2574 as ArpadH774? is not SamariaH8111 as DamascusH1834?
As my handH3027 hath foundH4672 the kingdomsH4467 of the idolsH457, and whose graven imagesH6456 did excel them of JerusalemH3389 and of SamariaH8111;
Shall I not, as I have doneH6213 unto SamariaH8111 and her idolsH457, so doH6213 to JerusalemH3389 and her idolsH6091?
Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the LordH136 hath performedH1214 his whole workH4639 upon mountH2022 ZionH6726 and on JerusalemH3389, I will punishH6485 the fruitH6529 of the stoutH1433 heartH3824 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and the gloryH8597 of his highH7312 looksH5869. {punish: Heb. visit upon} {stout…: Heb. greatness of the heart}
For he saithH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have doneH6213 it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I am prudentH995: and I have removedH5493 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971, and have robbedH8154 their treasuresH6259+H6264, and I have put downH3381 the inhabitantsH3427 like a valiantH47+H3524 man: {a valiant…: or, many people}
And my handH3027 hath foundH4672 as a nestH7064 the richesH2428 of the peopleH5971: and as one gatherethH622 eggsH1000 that are leftH5800, have I gatheredH622 all the earthH776; and there was none that movedH5074 the wingH3671, or openedH6475 the mouthH6310, or peepedH6850.
Shall the axeH1631 boastH6286 itself against him that hewethH2672 therewith? or shall the sawH4883 magnifyH1431 itself against him that shakethH5130 it? as if the rodH7626 should shakeH5130 itself against them that lift it upH7311, or as if the staffH4294 should lift upH7311 itself, as if it were no woodH6086. {the rod…: or, a rod should shake them that lift it up} {itself, as if…: or, that which is not wood}
Therefore shall the LordH113, the LordH136+H3068 of hostsH6635, sendH7971 among his fat onesH4924 leannessH7332; and under his gloryH3519 he shall kindleH3344 a burningH3350 like the burning of a fireH784.
And the lightH216 of IsraelH3478 shall be for a fireH784, and his Holy OneH6918 for a flameH3852: and it shall burnH1197 and devourH398 his thornsH7898 and his briersH8068 in oneH259 dayH3117;
And shall consumeH3615 the gloryH3519 of his forestH3293, and of his fruitful fieldH3759, both soulH5315 and bodyH1320: and they shall be as when a standardbearerH5263 faintethH4549. {both…: Heb. from the soul, and even to the flesh}
And the restH7605 of the treesH6086 of his forestH3293 shall be fewH4557, that a childH5288 may writeH3789 them. {few: Heb. number}
And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the remnantH7605 of IsraelH3478, and such as are escapedH6413 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, shall no more againH3254 stayH8172 upon him that smoteH5221 them; but shall stayH8172 upon the LORDH3068, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, in truthH571.
The remnantH7605 shall returnH7725, even the remnantH7605 of JacobH3290, unto the mightyH1368 GodH410.
For though thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be as the sandH2344 of the seaH3220, yet a remnantH7605 of them shall returnH7725: the consumptionH3631 decreedH2782 shall overflowH7857 with righteousnessH6666. {of them: Heb. in, or, among, etc} {with: or, in}
For the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 shall makeH6213 a consumptionH3617, even determinedH2782, in the midstH7130 of all the landH776.
WoeH1945 to the landH776 shadowingH6767 with wingsH3671, which is beyondH5676 the riversH5104 of EthiopiaH3568:
That sendethH7971 ambassadorsH6735 by the seaH3220, even in vesselsH3627 of bulrushesH1573 uponH6440 the watersH4325, saying, GoH3212, ye swiftH7031 messengersH4397, to a nationH1471 scatteredH4900 and peeledH4178, to a peopleH5971 terribleH3372 from their beginning hithertoH1973; a nationH1471 meted outH6978 and trodden downH4001, whose landH776 the riversH5104 have spoiledH958! {scattered…: or, outspread and polished} {meted…: or, that meteth out and treadeth down: Heb. of line, line, and treading under foot} {have…: or, despise}
All ye inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398, and dwellersH7931 on the earthH776, seeH7200 ye, when he lifteth upH5375 an ensignH5251 on the mountainsH2022; and when he blowethH8628 a trumpetH7782, hearH8085 ye.
For soH3541 the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, I will take my restH8252, and I will considerH5027 in my dwelling placeH4349 like a clearH6703 heatH2527 upon herbsH216, and like a cloudH5645 of dewH2919 in the heatH2527 of harvestH7105. {consider…: or, regard my set dwelling} {upon…: or, after rain}
For aforeH6440 the harvestH7105, when the budH6525 is perfectH8552, and the sour grapeH1155 is ripeningH1580 in the flowerH5328, he shall both cut offH3772 the sprigsH2150 with pruning hooksH4211, and take awayH5493 and cut downH8456 the branchesH5189.
They shall be leftH5800 togetherH3162 unto the fowlsH5861 of the mountainsH2022, and to the beastsH929 of the earthH776: and the fowlsH5861 shall summerH6972 upon them, and all the beastsH929 of the earthH776 shall winterH2778 upon them.
In that timeH6256 shall the presentH7862 be broughtH2986 unto the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 of a peopleH5971 scatteredH4900 and peeledH4178, and from a peopleH5971 terribleH3372 from their beginning hithertoH1973; a nationH1471 meted outH6978 and trodden under footH4001, whose landH776 the riversH5104 have spoiledH958, to the placeH4725 of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the mountH2022 ZionH6726. {scattered…: or, outspread and polished}
In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of kingH4428 BelshazzarH1112 a visionH2377 appearedH7200 unto me, even unto me DanielH1840, afterH310 that which appearedH7200 unto me at the firstH8462.
And I sawH7200 in a visionH2377; and it came to pass, when I sawH7200, that I was at ShushanH7800 in the palaceH1002, which is in the provinceH4082 of ElamH5867; and I sawH7200 in a visionH2377, and I was by the riverH180 of UlaiH195.
Then I lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869, and sawH7200, and, behold, there stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the riverH180 aH259 ramH352 which had two hornsH7161: and the two hornsH7161 were highH1364; but oneH259 was higherH1364 than the otherH8145, and the higherH1364 came upH5927 lastH314. {the other: Heb. the second}
I sawH7200 the ramH352 pushingH5055 westwardH3220, and northwardH6828, and southwardH5045; so that no beastsH2416 might standH5975 beforeH6440 him, neither was there any that could deliverH5337 out of his handH3027; but he didH6213 according to his willH7522, and became greatH1431.
And as I was consideringH995, behold, an heH5795 goatH6842 cameH935 from the westH4628 on the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776, and touchedH5060 not the groundH776: and the goatH6842 had a notableH2380 hornH7161 between his eyesH5869. {touched…: or, none touched him in the earth} {a notable…: Heb. a horn of sight}
And he cameH935 to the ramH352 that hadH1167 two hornsH7161, which I had seenH7200 standingH5975 beforeH6440 the riverH180, and ranH7323 unto him in the furyH2534 of his powerH3581.
And I sawH7200 him comeH5060 close untoH681 the ramH352, and he was moved with cholerH4843 against him, and smoteH5221 the ramH352, and brakeH7665 his twoH8147 hornsH7161: and there was no powerH3581 in the ramH352 to standH5975 beforeH6440 him, but he cast him downH7993 to the groundH776, and stampedH7429 upon him: and there was none that could deliverH5337 the ramH352 out of his handH3027.
Therefore the heH6842 goatH5795 waxed veryH3966 greatH1431: and when he was strongH6105, the greatH1419 hornH7161 was brokenH7665; and for it came upH5927 fourH702 notable onesH2380 toward the fourH702 windsH7307 of heavenH8064.
And out of oneH259 of them came forthH3318 a littleH4704 hornH7161, which waxed exceedingH3499 greatH1431, toward the southH5045, and toward the eastH4217, and toward the pleasantH6643 land.
And it waxed greatH1431, even to the hostH6635 of heavenH8064; and it cast downH5307 some of the hostH6635 and of the starsH3556 to the groundH776, and stampedH7429 upon them. {to the host: or, against the host}
Yea, he magnifiedH1431 himself even to the princeH8269 of the hostH6635, and by him the dailyH8548 sacrifice was taken awayH7311+H7311, and the placeH4349 of his sanctuaryH4720 was cast downH7993. {to: or, against} {by him: or, from him}
And an hostH6635 was givenH5414 him against the dailyH8548 sacrifice by reason of transgressionH6588, and it cast downH7993 the truthH571 to the groundH776; and it practisedH6213, and prosperedH6743. {an host…: or, the host was given over for the transgression against the daily sacrifice}
Then I heardH8085 oneH259 saintH6918 speakingH1696, and anotherH259 saintH6918 saidH559 unto that certainH6422 saint which spakeH1696, How long shall be the visionH2377 concerning the dailyH8548 sacrifice, and the transgressionH6588 of desolationH8074, to giveH5414 both the sanctuaryH6944 and the hostH6635 to be trodden under footH4823? {that…: or, the numberer of secrets, or, the wonderful numberer: Heb. Palmoni} {of…: or, making desolate}
And he saidH559 unto me, Unto two thousandH505 and threeH7969 hundredH3967 daysH6153+H1242; then shall the sanctuaryH6944 be cleansedH6663. {days: Heb. evening morning} {cleansed: Heb. justified}
And it came to pass, when I, even I DanielH1840, had seenH7200 the visionH2377, and soughtH1245 for the meaningH998, then, behold, there stoodH5975 before me as the appearanceH4758 of a manH1397.
And I heardH8085 a man'sH120 voiceH6963 between the banks of UlaiH195, which calledH7121, and saidH559, GabrielH1403, make thisH1975 man to understandH995 the visionH4758.
So he cameH935 nearH681 where I stoodH5977: and when he cameH935, I was afraidH1204, and fellH5307 upon my faceH6440: but he saidH559 unto me, UnderstandH995, O sonH1121 of manH120: for at the timeH6256 of the endH7093 shall be the visionH2377.
Now as he was speakingH1696 with me, I was in a deep sleepH7290 on my faceH6440 toward the groundH776: but he touchedH5060 me, and setH5975 me uprightH5977. {set…: Heb. made me stand upon my standing}
And he saidH559, Behold, I will make thee knowH3045 what shall be in the last endH319 of the indignationH2195: for at the time appointedH4150 the endH7093 shall be.
The ramH352 which thou sawestH7200 havingH1167 two hornsH7161 are the kingsH4428 of MediaH4074 and PersiaH6539.
And the roughH8163 goatH6842 is the kingH4428 of GreciaH3120: and the greatH1419 hornH7161 that is between his eyesH5869 is the firstH7223 kingH4428.
Now that being brokenH7665, whereas fourH702 stood upH5975 for it, fourH702 kingdomsH4438 shall stand upH5975 out of the nationH1471, but not in his powerH3581.
And in the latter timeH319 of their kingdomH4438, when the transgressorsH6586 are come to the fullH8552, a kingH4428 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440, and understandingH995 dark sentencesH2420, shall stand upH5975. {are…: Heb. are accomplished}
And his powerH3581 shall be mightyH6105, but not by his own powerH3581: and he shall destroyH7843 wonderfullyH6381, and shall prosperH6743, and practiseH6213, and shall destroyH7843 the mightyH6099 and the holyH6918 peopleH5971. {holy…: Heb. people of the holy ones}
And through his policyH7922 also he shall cause craftH4820 to prosperH6743 in his handH3027; and he shall magnifyH1431 himself in his heartH3824, and by peaceH7962 shall destroyH7843 manyH7227: he shall also stand upH5975 against the PrinceH8269 of princesH8269; but he shall be brokenH7665 withoutH657 handH3027. {peace: or, prosperity}
And the visionH4758 of the eveningH6153 and the morningH1242 which was toldH559 is trueH571: wherefore shut thou upH5640 the visionH2377; for it shall be for manyH7227 daysH3117.
And I DanielH1840 faintedH1961, and was sickH2470 certain daysH3117; afterward I rose upH6965, and didH6213 the king'sH4428 businessH4399; and I was astonishedH8074 at the visionH4758, but none understoodH995 it.
In the firstH2298 yearH8140 of BelshazzarH1113 kingH4430 of BabylonH895 DanielH1841 hadH2370 a dreamH2493 and visionsH2376 of his headH7217 uponH5922 his bedH4903: thenH116 he wroteH3790 the dreamH2493, and toldH560 the sumH7217 of the mattersH4406. {had: Cald. saw} {matters: or, words}
DanielH1841 spakeH6032 and saidH560, I sawH2370+H1934 in my visionH2376 byH5974 nightH3916, and, beholdH718, the fourH703 windsH7308 of the heavenH8065 stroveH1519 upon the greatH7229 seaH3221.
And fourH703 greatH7260 beastsH2423 came upH5559 fromH4481 the seaH3221, diverseH8133 oneH1668 fromH4481 anotherH1668.
The firstH6933 was like a lionH744, and had eagle'sH5403 wingsH1611: I beheldH1934+H2370 tillH5705 the wingsH1611 thereof were pluckedH4804, and it was lifted upH5191 fromH4481 the earthH772, and made standH6966 uponH5922 the feetH7271 as a manH606, and a man'sH606 heartH3825 was givenH3052 to it. {and it: or, wherewith it}
And beholdH718 anotherH317 beastH2423, a secondH8578, likeH1821 to a bearH1678, and it raised upH6966 itself on oneH2298 sideH7859, and it had threeH8532 ribsH5967 in the mouthH6433 of it betweenH997 the teethH8128 of it: and they saidH560 thusH3652 unto it, AriseH6966, devourH399 muchH7690 fleshH1321. {it raised…: or, it raised up one dominion}
AfterH870 thisH1836 I beheldH1934+H2370, and loH718 anotherH317, like a leopardH5245, which had uponH5922 the backH1355 of it fourH703 wingsH1611 of a fowlH5776; the beastH2423 had also fourH703 headsH7217; and dominionH7985 was givenH3052 to it.
AfterH870 thisH1836 I sawH1934+H2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, and beholdH718 a fourthH7244 beastH2423, dreadfulH1763 and terribleH574, and strongH8624 exceedinglyH3493; and it had greatH7260 ironH6523 teethH8128: it devouredH399 and brake in piecesH1855, and stampedH7512 the residueH7606 with the feetH7271 of it: and itH1932 was diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 the beastsH2423 that were beforeH6925 it; and it had tenH6236 hornsH7162.
I consideredH1934+H7920 the hornsH7162, and, beholdH431, there came upH5559 amongH997 them anotherH317 littleH2192 hornH7162, beforeH6925+H4481 whom there were threeH8532 ofH4481 the firstH6933 hornsH7162 plucked up by the rootsH6132: and, beholdH431, in thisH1668 hornH7162 were eyesH5870 like the eyesH5870 of manH606, and a mouthH6433 speakingH4449 great thingsH7260.
I beheldH1934+H2370 tillH5705 the thronesH3764 were cast downH7412, and the AncientH6268 of daysH3118 did sitH3488, whose garmentH3831 was whiteH2358 as snowH8517, and the hairH8177 of his headH7217 like the pureH5343 woolH6015: his throneH3764 was like the fieryH5135 flameH7631, and his wheelsH1535 as burningH1815 fireH5135.
A fieryH5135 streamH5103 issuedH5047 and came forthH5312 fromH4481 beforeH6925 him: thousandH506 thousandsH506 ministeredH8120 unto him, and ten thousandH7240 times ten thousandH7240 stoodH6966 beforeH6925 him: the judgmentH1780 was setH3488, and the booksH5609 were openedH6606.
I beheldH1934+H2370 thenH116 becauseH4481 of the voiceH7032 of the greatH7260 wordsH4406 which the hornH7162 spakeH4449: I beheldH1934+H2370 even tillH5705 the beastH2423 was slainH6992, and his bodyH1655 destroyedH7, and givenH3052 to the burningH3346 flameH785.
As concerning the restH7606 of the beastsH2423, they had their dominionH7985 taken awayH5709: yet their livesH2417 were prolongedH3052 forH5705 a seasonH2166 and timeH5732. {their lives…: Cald. a prolonging in life was given them}
I sawH1934+H2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, and, beholdH718, one like the SonH1247 of manH606 cameH858 withH5974 the cloudsH6050 of heavenH8065, and cameH4291 toH5705 the AncientH6268 of daysH3118, and they brought him nearH7127 beforeH6925 him.
And there was givenH3052 him dominionH7985, and gloryH3367, and a kingdomH4437, that allH3606 peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, should serveH6399 him: his dominionH7985 is an everlastingH5957 dominionH7985, which shall notH3809 pass awayH5709, and his kingdomH4437 that which shall notH3809 be destroyedH2255.
IH576 DanielH1841 was grievedH3735 in my spiritH7308 in the midstH1459 of my bodyH5085, and the visionsH2376 of my headH7217 troubledH927 me. {body: Cald. sheath}
I came nearH7127 untoH5922 oneH2298 ofH4481 them that stood byH6966, and askedH1156 himH4481 the truthH3330 of allH3606 thisH1836. So he toldH560 me, and made me knowH3046 the interpretationH6591 of the thingsH4406.
TheseH459 greatH7260 beastsH2423, whichH581 are fourH703, are fourH703 kingsH4430, which shall ariseH6966 out ofH4481 the earthH772.
But the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946 shall takeH6902 the kingdomH4437, and possessH2631 the kingdomH4437 forH5705 everH5957, even forH5705 everH5957 and everH5957. {most…: Cald. high ones, that is, things, or, places}
ThenH116 I wouldH6634 know the truthH3321 ofH5922 the fourthH7244 beastH2423, which wasH1934 diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 the others, exceedingH3493 dreadfulH1763, whose teethH8128 were of ironH6523, and his nailsH2953 of brassH5174; which devouredH399, brake in piecesH1855, and stampedH7512 the residueH7606 with his feetH7271; {from…: Cald. from all those}
And ofH5922 the tenH6236 hornsH7162 that were in his headH7217, and of the otherH317 which came upH5559, and beforeH4481+H6925 whom threeH8532 fellH5308; even of that hornH7162 thatH1797 had eyesH5870, and a mouthH6433 that spakeH4449 very great thingsH7260, whose lookH2376 was moreH4481 stoutH7229 thanH4481 his fellowsH2273.
I beheldH1934+H2370, and the sameH1797 hornH7162 madeH5648 warH7129 withH5974 the saintsH6922, and prevailedH3202 against them;
UntilH5705 the AncientH6268 of daysH3118 cameH858+H1768, and judgmentH1780 was givenH3052 to the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946; and the timeH2166 cameH4291 that the saintsH6922 possessedH2631 the kingdomH4437.
ThusH3652 he saidH560, The fourthH7244 beastH2423 shall beH1934 the fourthH7244 kingdomH4437 upon earthH772, which shall be diverseH8133 fromH4481 allH3606 kingdomsH4437, and shall devourH399 the wholeH3606 earthH772, and shall tread it downH1759, and break it in piecesH1855.
And the tenH6236 hornsH7162 out ofH4481 this kingdomH4437 are tenH6236 kingsH4430 that shall ariseH6966: and anotherH321 shall riseH6966 afterH311 them; and he shall be diverseH8133 fromH4481 the firstH6933, and he shall subdueH8214 threeH8532 kingsH4430.
And he shall speakH4449 great wordsH4406 againstH6655 the most HighH5943, and shall wear outH1080 the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946, and thinkH5452 to changeH8133 timesH2166 and lawsH1882: and they shall be givenH3052 into his handH3028 untilH5705 a timeH5732 and timesH5732 and the dividingH6387 of timeH5732.
But the judgmentH1780 shall sitH3488, and they shall take awayH5709 his dominionH7985, to consumeH8046 and to destroyH7 it untoH5705 the endH5491.
And the kingdomH4437 and dominionH7985, and the greatnessH7238 of the kingdomH4437 underH8460 the wholeH3606 heavenH8065, shall be givenH3052 to the peopleH5972 of the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946, whose kingdomH4437 is an everlastingH5957 kingdomH4437, and allH3606 dominionsH7985 shall serveH6399 and obeyH8086 him. {dominions: or, rulers}
HithertoH5705+H3542 is the endH5491 of the matterH4406. As for meH576 DanielH1841, my cogitationsH7476 muchH7690 troubledH927 me, and my countenanceH2122 changedH8133 in meH5922: but I keptH5202 the matterH4406 in my heartH3821.
IG1473 amG1510 the trueG228 vineG288, andG2532 myG3450 FatherG3962 isG2076 the husbandmanG1092.
EveryG3956 branchG2814 inG1722 meG1698 thatG846 bearethG5342 notG3361 fruitG2590 he taketh awayG142: andG2532 everyG3956 branch that bearethG5342 fruitG2590, he purgethG2508 itG846, thatG2443 it may bring forthG5342 moreG4119 fruitG2590.
NowG2235 yeG5210 areG2075 cleanG2513 throughG1223 the wordG3056 whichG3739 I have spokenG2980 unto youG5213.
AbideG3306 inG1722 meG1698, and IG2504 inG1722 youG5213. AsG2531 the branchG2814 cannotG3756+G1410 bearG5342 fruitG2590 ofG575 itselfG1438, exceptG3362 it abideG3306 inG1722 the vineG288; no moreG3761+G3779 can yeG5210, exceptG3362 ye abideG3306 inG1722 meG1698.
IG1473 amG1510 the vineG288, yeG5210 are the branchesG2814: He that abidethG3306 inG1722 meG1698, and IG2504 inG1722 himG846, the sameG3778 bringeth forthG5342 muchG4183 fruitG2590: forG3754 withoutG5565 meG1700 ye canG1410 doG4160 nothingG3756+G3762. {without me: or, severed from me}
IfG3362 a manG5100 abideG3306 notG3362 inG1722 meG1698, he is castG906 forthG1854 asG5613 a branchG2814, andG2532 is witheredG3583; andG2532 men gatherG4863 themG846, andG2532 castG906 them intoG1519 the fireG4442, andG2532 they are burnedG2545.
IfG1437 ye abideG3306 inG1722 meG1698, andG2532 myG3450 wordsG4487 abideG3306 inG1722 youG5213, ye shall askG154 whatG3739+G1437 ye willG2309, andG2532 it shall be doneG1096 unto youG5213.
HereinG1722+G5129 isG1392 myG3450 FatherG3962 glorifiedG1392, thatG2443 ye bearG5342 muchG4183 fruitG2590; soG2532 shall ye beG1096 myG1699 disciplesG3101.
AsG2531 the FatherG3962 hath lovedG25 meG3165, soG2504 haveG25 IG2504 lovedG25 youG5209: continue yeG3306 inG1722 myG1699 loveG26.
IfG1437 ye keepG5083 myG3450 commandmentsG1785, ye shall abideG3306 inG1722 myG3450 loveG26; even asG2531 IG1473 have keptG5083 myG3450 Father'sG3962 commandmentsG1785, andG2532 abideG3306 inG1722 hisG846 loveG26.
These thingsG5023 have I spokenG2980 unto youG5213, thatG2443 myG1699 joyG5479 might remainG3306 inG1722 youG5213, andG2532 that yourG5216 joyG5479 might be fullG4137.
ThisG3778 isG2076 myG1699 commandmentG1785, ThatG2443 ye loveG25 one anotherG240, asG2531 I have lovedG25 youG5209.
GreaterG3187 loveG26 hathG2192 no manG3762 thanG3187 thisG5026, thatG2443 a manG5100 lay downG5087 hisG846 lifeG5590 forG5228 hisG846 friendsG5384.
YeG5210 areG2075 myG3450 friendsG5384, ifG1437 ye doG4160 whatsoeverG3745 IG1473 commandG1781 youG5213.
HenceforthG3765 I callG3004 youG5209 notG3765 servantsG1401; forG3754 the servantG1401 knowethG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 hisG846 lordG2962 doethG4160: butG1161 I have calledG2046 youG5209 friendsG5384; forG3754 all thingsG3956 thatG3739 I have heardG191 ofG3844 myG3450 FatherG3962 I have made knownG1107 unto youG5213.
YeG5210 haveG1586 notG3756 chosenG1586 meG3165, butG235 IG1473 have chosenG1586 youG5209, andG2532 ordainedG5087 youG5209, thatG2443 yeG5210 should goG5217 andG2532 bring forthG5342 fruitG2590, andG2532 that yourG5216 fruitG2590 should remainG3306: thatG2443 whatsoeverG3739+G302+G3748 ye shall askG154 of the FatherG3962 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, he may give itG1325 youG5213.
These thingsG5023 I commandG1781 youG5213, thatG2443 ye loveG25 one anotherG240.
IfG1487 the worldG2889 hateG3404 youG5209, ye knowG1097 thatG3754 it hatedG3404 meG1691 beforeG4412 it hated youG5216.
IfG1487 ye wereG2258 ofG1537 the worldG2889, the worldG2889 wouldG302 loveG5368 his ownG2398: butG1161 becauseG3754 ye areG2075 notG3756 ofG1537 the worldG2889, butG235 IG1473 have chosenG1586 youG5209 out ofG1537 the worldG2889, thereforeG5124+G1223 the worldG2889 hatethG3404 youG5209.
RememberG3421 the wordG3056 thatG3739 IG1473 saidG2036 unto youG5213, The servantG1401 isG2076 notG3756 greater thanG3187 hisG846 lordG2962. IfG1487 they have persecutedG1377 meG1691, they willG1377 alsoG2532 persecuteG1377 youG5209; ifG1487 they have keptG5083 myG3450 sayingG3056, they will keepG5083 yoursG5212 alsoG2532.
ButG235 allG3956 these thingsG5023 will they doG4160 unto youG5213 forG1223 myG3450 name'sG3686 sakeG3450, becauseG3754 they knowG1492 notG3756 him that sentG3992 meG3165.
IfG1508 I hadG2064 notG1508 comeG2064 andG2532 spokenG2980 unto themG846, they hadG2192 notG3756 hadG2192 sinG266: butG1161 nowG3568 they haveG2192 noG3756 clokeG4392 forG4012 theirG846 sinG266. {cloke: or, excuse}
He that hatethG3404 meG1691 hatethG3404 myG3450 FatherG3962 alsoG2532.
IfG1508 I hadG4160 notG1508 doneG4160 amongG1722 themG846 the worksG2041 whichG3739 noneG3762 other manG243 didG4160, they hadG2192 notG3756 hadG2192 sinG266: butG1161 nowG3568 have theyG3708 bothG2532 seenG3708 andG2532 hatedG3404 bothG2532 meG1691 andG2532 myG3450 FatherG3962.
ButG235 this cometh to pass, thatG2443 the wordG3056 might be fulfilledG4137 that is writtenG1125 inG1722 theirG846 lawG3551+G3754, They hatedG3404 meG3165 without a causeG1432.
ButG1161 whenG3752 the ComforterG3875 is comeG2064, whomG3739 IG1473 will sendG3992 unto youG5213 fromG3844 the FatherG3962, even the SpiritG4151 of truthG225, whichG3739 proceedethG1607 fromG3844 the FatherG3962, heG1565 shall testifyG3140 ofG4012 meG1700:
AndG1161 yeG5210 alsoG2532 shall bear witnessG3140, becauseG3754 ye have beenG2075 withG3326 meG1700 fromG575 the beginningG746.
