1. Woe to them that afflict you; but no one makes you miserable: and he that deals perfidiously with you does not deal perfidiously: they that deal perfidiously shall be taken and given up, and as a moth on a garment, so shall they be spoiled.
|
1. Woe H1945 to thee that spoilest H7703 , and thou H859 wast not H3808 spoiled H7703 ; and dealest treacherously H898 , and they dealt not treacherously H898 H3808 with thee! when thou shalt cease H8552 to spoil H7703 , thou shalt be spoiled H7703 ; and when thou shalt make an end H5239 to deal treacherously H898 , they shall deal treacherously H898 with thee.
|
|
2. Lord, have mercy upon us; for we have trusted in thee: the seed of the rebellious is gone to destruction, but our deliverance was in a time of affliction.
|
2. O LORD H3068 , be gracious H2603 unto us ; we have waited H6960 for thee: be H1961 thou their arm H2220 every morning H1242 , our salvation H3444 also H637 in the time H6256 of trouble H6869 .
|
|
3. By reason of the terrible sound the nations were dismayed for fear of thee, and the heathen were scattered.
|
3. At the noise H4480 H6963 of the tumult H1995 the people H5971 fled H5074 ; at the lifting up H4480 H7427 of thyself the nations H1471 were scattered H5310 .
|
|
4. And now shall the spoils of your small and great be gathered: as if one should gather locusts, so shall they mock you.
|
4. And your spoil H7998 shall be gathered H622 like the gathering H625 of the caterpillar H2625 : as the running to and fro H4944 of locusts H1357 shall he run H8264 upon them.
|
|
5. The God who dwells on high is holy: Sion is filled with judgement and righteousness.
|
5. The LORD H3068 is exalted H7682 ; for H3588 he dwelleth H7931 on high H4791 : he hath filled H4390 Zion H6726 with judgment H4941 and righteousness H6666 .
|
|
6. They shall be delivered up to the law: our salvation is our treasure: there are wisdom and knowledge and piety toward the Lord; these are the treasures of righteousness.
|
6. And wisdom H2451 and knowledge H1847 shall be H1961 the stability H530 of thy times H6256 , and strength H2633 of salvation H3444 : the fear H3374 of the LORD H3068 is his treasure H214 .
|
|
7. Behold now, these shall be terrified with fear of you: those whom ye feared shall cry out because of you: messengers shall be sent, bitterly weeping, entreating for peace.
|
7. Behold H2005 , their valiant ones H691 shall cry H6817 without H2351 : the ambassadors H4397 of peace H7965 shall weep H1058 bitterly H4751 .
|
|
8. For the ways of these shall be made desolate: the terror of the nations has been made to cease, and the covenant with these is taken away, and ye shall by no means deem them men.
|
8. The highways H4546 lie waste H8074 , the wayfaring man H5674 H734 ceaseth H7673 : he hath broken H6565 the covenant H1285 , he hath despised H3988 the cities H5892 , he regardeth H2803 no H3808 man H582 .
|
|
9. The land mourns; Libanus is ashamed: Saron is become marshes; Galilee shall be Gr. manifest laid bare, and Chermel.
|
9. The earth H776 mourneth H56 and languisheth H535 : Lebanon H3844 is ashamed H2659 and hewn down H7060 : Sharon H8289 is H1961 like a wilderness H6160 ; and Bashan H1316 and Carmel H3760 shake off H5287 their fruits .
|
|
10. Now will I arise, saith the Lord, now will I be glorified; now will I be exalted.
|
10. Now H6258 will I rise H6965 , saith H559 the LORD H3068 ; now H6258 will I be exalted H7311 ; now H6258 will I lift up myself H5375 .
|
|
11. Now shall ye see, now shall ye perceive; the strength of your breath, shall be vain; fire shall devour you.
|
11. Ye shall conceive H2029 chaff H2842 , ye shall bring forth H3205 stubble H7179 : your breath H7307 , as fire H784 , shall devour H398 you.
|
|
12. And the nations shall be burnt up; as a thorn in the field cast out and burnt up.
|
12. And the people H5971 shall be H1961 as the burnings H4955 of lime H7875 : as thorns H6975 cut up H3683 shall they be burned H3341 in the fire H784 .
|
|
13. They that are afar off shall hear what I have done; they that draw nigh shall know my strength.
|
13. Hear H8085 , ye that are far off H7350 , what H834 I have done H6213 ; and , ye that are near H7138 , acknowledge H3045 my might H1369 .
|
|
14. The sinners in Sion have departed; trembling shall seize the ungodly. Who will tell you that a fire is kindled? Who will tell you of the eternal place?
|
14. The sinners H2400 in Zion H6726 are afraid H6342 ; fearfulness H7461 hath surprised H270 the hypocrites H2611 . Who H4310 among us shall dwell H1481 with the devouring H398 fire H784 ? who H4310 among us shall dwell H1481 with everlasting H5769 burnings H4168 ?
|
|
15. He that walks in righteousness, speaking rightly, hating transgression and iniquity, and shaking his hands from gifts, stopping his ears that he should not hear the judgement of blood, shutting his eyes that he should not see injustice.
|
15. He that walketh H1980 righteously H6666 , and speaketh H1696 uprightly H4339 ; he that despiseth H3988 the gain H1215 of oppressions H4642 , that shaketh H5287 his hands H3709 from holding H4480 H8551 of bribes H7810 , that stoppeth H331 his ears H241 from hearing H4480 H8085 of blood H1818 , and shutteth H6105 his eyes H5869 from seeing H4480 H7200 evil H7451 ;
|
|
16. he shall dwell in a high cave of a strong rock: bread shall be given him, and his water shall be sure.
|
16. He H1931 shall dwell H7931 on high H4791 : his place of defense H4869 shall be the munitions H4679 of rocks H5553 : bread H3899 shall be given H5414 him ; his waters H4325 shall be sure H539 .
|
|
17. Ye shall see a king with glory: your eyes shall behold a land from afar.
|
17. Thine eyes H5869 shall see H2372 the king H4428 in his beauty H3308 : they shall behold H7200 the land H776 that is very far off H4801 .
|
|
18. Your soul shall meditate terror. Where are the scribes? where are the counsellors, where is he that numbers them that are growing up,
|
18. Thine heart H3820 shall meditate H1897 terror H367 . Where H346 is the scribe H5608 ? where H346 is the receiver H8254 ? where H346 is he that counted H5608 H853 the towers H4026 ?
|
|
19. even the small and great people? with whom he took not counsel, neither did he understand a people of deep speech, so that a despised people should not hear, and there is no understanding to him that hears.
|
19. Thou shalt not H3808 see H7200 H853 a fierce H3267 people H5971 , a people H5971 of a deeper H6012 speech H8193 than thou canst perceive H4480 H8085 ; of a stammering H3932 tongue H3956 , that thou canst not H369 understand H998 .
|
|
20. Behold the city of Sion, our Or, salvation refuge: thine eyes shall behold Jerusalem, a rich city, tabernacles which shall not be shaken, neither shall the pins of her tabernacle be moved for ever, neither shall her cords be at all broken:
|
20. Look H2372 upon Zion H6726 , the city H7151 of our solemnities H4150 : thine eyes H5869 shall see H7200 Jerusalem H3389 a quiet H7600 habitation H5116 , a tabernacle H168 that shall not H1077 be taken down H6813 ; not H1077 one of the stakes H3489 thereof shall ever H5331 be removed H5265 , neither H1077 shall any H3605 of the cords H2256 thereof be broken H5423 .
|
|
21. for the name of the Lord is great to you: ye shall have a place, even rivers and wide and spacious channels: thou shalt not go this way, neither a vessel with oars go thereby.
|
21. But H3588 H518 there H8033 the glorious H117 LORD H3068 will be unto us a place H4725 of broad rivers H5104 and streams H2975 ; wherein shall go H1980 no H1077 galley H590 with oars H7885 , neither H3808 shall gallant H117 ship H6716 pass H5674 thereby.
|
|
22. For my God is great: the Lord our judge shall not pass me by: the Lord is our prince, the Lord is our king; the Lord, he shall save us.
|
22. For H3588 the LORD H3068 is our judge H8199 , the LORD H3068 is our lawgiver H2710 , the LORD H3068 is our king H4428 ; he H1931 will save H3467 us.
|
|
23. Thy cords are broken, for they had no strength: thy meat has given way, it shall not spread the sails, it shall not bear a signal, until it be given up for plunder; therefore shall many lame men take spoil.
|
23. Thy tacklings H2256 are loosed H5203 ; they could not H1077 well H3653 strengthen H2388 their mast H8650 , they could not H1077 spread H6566 the sail H5251 : then H227 is the prey H5706 of a great H4766 spoil H7998 divided H2505 ; the lame H6455 take H962 the prey H957 .
|
|
24. And the people dwelling among them shall by no means say, Or, I am sick I am in pain: for their sin shall be forgiven them.
|
24. And the inhabitant H7934 shall not H1077 say H559 , I am sick H2470 : the people H5971 that dwell H3427 therein shall be forgiven H5375 their iniquity H5771 .
