| [1]Alas for those disobedient chyldren saith the Lorde, that they will take counsell and not of me, that they wyll take a secrete aduice and not out of my spirite, and therefore adde they sinne vnto sinne |
[1]WoeH1945 to the rebelliousH5637[H8802] childrenH1121, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, that takeH6213[H8800] counselH6098, but not of me; and that coverH5258[H8800] with a coveringH4541, but not of my spiritH7307, that they may addH5595[H8800] sinH2403 to sinH2403: |
| [2]Euen they that walke to go downe into Egypt, and haue asked no question at my mouth, but seeke strength in the might of Pharao, and trust in the shadowe of Egypt |
[2]That walkH1980[H8802] to go downH3381[H8800] into EgyptH4714, and have not askedH7592[H8804] at my mouthH6310; to strengthenH5810[H8800] themselves in the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547, and to trustH2620[H8800] in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714! |
| [3]Therefore shall the strength of Pharao be your confusion, and the trust in the shadowe of Egypt your shame |
[3]Therefore shall the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547 be your shameH1322, and the trustH2622 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714 your confusionH3639. |
| [4]For his captaynes were at Zoan, and his embassadours came vnto Hanes |
[4]For his princesH8269 were at ZoanH6814, and his ambassadorsH4397 cameH5060[H8686] to HanesH2609. |
| [5]They were ashamed of the people that coulde do them no good, and that might not helpe them nor shewe them any profit, but were their confusion and rebuke |
[5]They were all ashamedH3001[H8689] of a peopleH5971 that could not profitH3276[H8686] them, nor be an helpH5828 nor profitH3276[H8687], but a shameH1322, and also a reproachH2781. |
| [6]The burthen of the beastes of the south. In a land of trouble & anguishe, from whence shall come the young and olde lion, the viper and firie serpent that fleeth against them that vpon coltes beare their riches, and vpon camels their treasures, to a people that can do them no good |
[6]The burdenH4853 of the beastsH929 of the southH5045: into the landH776 of troubleH6869 and anguishH6695, from whence come the youngH3833 and old lionH3918, the viperH660 and fieryH8314 flyingH5774[H8789] serpentH8314, they will carryH5375[H8799] their richesH2428 upon the shouldersH3802 of young assesH5895, and their treasuresH214 upon the bunchesH1707 of camelsH1581, to a peopleH5971 that shall not profitH3276 themH8686. |
| [7]For vayne and nothing worth shall the helpe of the Egyptians be: Therefore haue I cryed vnto Hierusalem, they shall haue strength inough if they wyll settle their mindes in quietnesse |
[7]For the EgyptiansH4714 shall helpH5826[H8799] in vainH1892, and to no purposeH7385: therefore have I criedH7121[H8804] concerning thisH2063, TheirH1992 strengthH7293 is to sit stillH7674. |
| [8]Nowe therefore go thy way, and write this before them in a table, and note it in a booke: that it may finally remaine and be kept styll for euer |
[8]Now goH935[H8798], writeH3789[H8798] it before them in a tableH3871, and noteH2710[H8798] it in a bookH5612, that it may be for the timeH3117 to comeH314 forH5704 everH5703 and everH5769: |
| [9]For this is an obstinate people, and dissembling chyldren, chyldren that refuse to heare the lawe of the Lorde |
[9]That this is a rebelliousH4805 peopleH5971, lyingH3586 childrenH1121, childrenH1121 that willH14[H8804] not hearH8085[H8800] the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068: |
| [10]For they say vnto the seers, see not, and to them that be cleare of iudgement, loke not out right thinges for vs: but speake fayre wordes vnto vs, loke out errours |
[10]Which sayH559[H8804] to the seersH7200[H8802], SeeH7200[H8799] not; and to the prophetsH2374, ProphesyH2372[H8799] not unto us right thingsH5229, speakH1696[H8761] unto us smooth thingsH2513, prophesyH2372[H8798] deceitsH4123: |
| [11]Get you out of this way, depart out of this path, and turne the holy one of Israel from vs |
[11]Get you outH5493[H8798] of the wayH1870, turn asideH5186[H8685] out of the pathH734, cause the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 to ceaseH7673[H8685] from before usH6440. |
| [12]Wherefore thus saith the holy one of Israel: Because your heartes ryse against this word, and because you trust in wrong dealing and peruerse iudgement, and put your confidence therin |
[12]Wherefore thus saithH559[H8804] the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, Because ye despiseH3988[H8800] this wordH1697, and trustH982[H8799] in oppressionH6233 and perversenessH3868[H8737], and stayH8172 thereonH8735: |
| [13]Therfore shall ye haue this mischiefe for your destruction and fall, like as an hye wall that falleth because of some rift or blast, whose breakyng commeth sodainly |
[13]Therefore this iniquityH5771 shall be to you as a breachH6556 ready to fallH5307[H8802], swelling outH1158[H8737] in a highH7682[H8737] wallH2346, whose breakingH7667 comethH935[H8799] suddenlyH6597 at an instantH6621. |
| [14]And the hurt thereof is lyke an earthen vessell whiche breaketh without helpe, so that in the bursting of it, there is not founde one sheuer to fetch fire in, or to take water withall out of the pit |
[14]And he shall breakH7665[H8804] it as the breakingH7667 of the pottersH3335'H8802 vesselH5035 that is broken in piecesH3807[H8800]; he shall not spareH2550[H8799]: so that there shall not be foundH4672[H8735] in the burstingH4386 of it a sherdH2789 to takeH2846[H8800] fireH784 from the hearthH3344[H8803], or to takeH2834[H8800] waterH4325 withal out of the pitH1360. |
| [15]For thus saith the Lorde God, euen the holy one of Israel: In repentaunce and in rest shall ye be safe, in quietnesse and sure confidence shalbe your strength, but ye haue had no list thereto |
[15]For thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478; In returningH7729 and restH5183 shall ye be savedH3467[H8735]; in quietnessH8252[H8687] and in confidenceH985 shall be your strengthH1369: and ye wouldH14 notH8804. |
| [16]For ye haue sayde, No, but we wyll escape thorowe horses, therefore shall ye flee: And we wyll get vs vp vpon swift beastes, and therefore shall your persecutours be swifter |
[16]But ye saidH559[H8799], No; for we will fleeH5127[H8799] upon horsesH5483; therefore shall ye fleeH5127[H8799]: and, We will rideH7392[H8799] upon the swiftH7031; therefore shall they that pursueH7291[H8802] you be swiftH7043.[H8735] |
| [17]A thousande shall flee at the rebuke of one, and at the rebuke of fiue shall ye all flee, till ye be left as a ship mast vpon the top of a mountaine, and as a beaken vpon an hill |
[17]OneH259 thousandH505 shall flee atH6440 the rebukeH1606 of oneH259; atH6440 the rebukeH1606 of fiveH2568 shall ye fleeH5127[H8799]: till ye be leftH3498[H8738] as a beaconH8650 upon the topH7218 of a mountainH2022, and as an ensignH5251 on an hillH1389. |
| [18]Therefore doth the Lorde cause you to wayte, that he may haue mercy vpon you, to the entent that he may haue the preeminence when he is gratious vnto you: For the Lord is the God of iudgement, Blessed are all they that hope in hym |
[18]And therefore will the LORDH3068 waitH2442[H8762], that he may be graciousH2603[H8800] unto you, and therefore will he be exaltedH7311[H8799], that he may have mercyH7355[H8763] upon you: for the LORDH3068 is a GodH430 of judgmentH4941: blessedH835 are all they that waitH2442 for himH8802. |
| [19]If the people remaine in Sion and at Hierusalem, thou shalt not be in heauinesse: but at the voyce of thy complaint shall he haue mercy vpon thee, and when he heareth it, he shall geue thee an aunswere |
[19]For the peopleH5971 shall dwellH3427[H8799] in ZionH6726 at JerusalemH3389: thou shalt weepH1058[H8799] no moreH1058[H8800]: he will be veryH2603[H8800] graciousH2603[H8799] unto thee at the voiceH6963 of thy cryH2199[H8800]; when he shall hearH8085[H8800] it, he will answerH6030 theeH8804. |
| [20]And though the Lorde geue you the bread of trouble, and the water of aduersitie, thy rayne shalbe no more so scant, but thyne eyes shall see thy rayne |
[20]And though the LordH136 giveH5414[H8804] you the breadH3899 of adversityH6862, and the waterH4325 of afflictionH3906, yet shall not thy teachersH3384[H8688] be removed into a cornerH3670[H8735] any more, but thine eyesH5869 shall seeH7200[H8802] thy teachersH3384:[H8688] |
| [21]Yea and thyne eare shall heare the talking of him that doth speake behinde thee: This is the way, walke ye in it, turne not aside neither to the right hande, nor to the left |
[21]And thine earsH241 shall hearH8085[H8799] a wordH1697 behindH310 thee, sayingH559[H8800], This is the wayH1870, walk ye in itH3212[H8798], when ye turn to the right handH541[H8686], and when ye turn to the leftH8041.[H8686] |
| [22]Ye shall destroy also the couering of your siluer images, and the decking of your golden idols, euen as filthynesse shalt thou put them away: And thou shalt say vnto it, Get thee hence |
[22]Ye shall defileH2930[H8765] also the coveringH6826 of thy graven imagesH6456 of silverH3701, and the ornamentH642 of thy molten imagesH4541 of goldH2091: thou shalt cast them awayH2219[H8799] as a menstruous clothH1739; thou shalt sayH559[H8799] unto it, Get thee henceH3318.[H8798] |
| [23]Then shall God geue rayne vnto thy seede, that thou shalt sowe the grounde withall, and bread of the increase of the earth, whiche shalbe fat and very plenteous: in that day also shall thy cattell be fed in large pastures |
[23]Then shall he giveH5414[H8804] the rainH4306 of thy seedH2233, that thou shalt sowH2232[H8799] the groundH127 withal; and breadH3899 of the increaseH8393 of the earthH127, and it shall be fatH1879 and plenteousH8082: in that dayH3117 shall thy cattleH4735 feedH7462[H8799] in largeH7337[H8737] pasturesH3733. |
| [24]The oxen lykewyse and the young asses that eare the grounde shall eate cleane prouender, whiche is purged with the winde and the fanne |
[24]The oxenH504 likewise and the young assesH5895 that earH5647[H8802] the groundH127 shall eatH398[H8799] cleanH2548 provenderH1098, which hath been winnowedH2219[H8802] with the shovelH7371 and with the fanH4214. |
| [25]Finally, vpon euery hye mountayne and hyll shall there be riuers, and streames of waters in the day of the great slaughter when the towres fall |
[25]And there shall be upon every highH1364 mountainH2022, and upon every highH5375[H8737] hillH1389, riversH6388 and streamsH2988 of watersH4325 in the dayH3117 of the greatH7227 slaughterH2027, when the towersH4026 fallH5307.[H8800] |
| [26]Moreouer, the light of the moone shalbe as the light of the sunne, and the sunne light shalbe seuen folde, and haue as much shine as in seuen dayes beside, when the Lorde bindeth vp the sore of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wounde |
[26]Moreover the lightH216 of the moonH3842 shall be as the lightH216 of the sunH2535, and the lightH216 of the sunH2535 shall be sevenfoldH7659, as the lightH216 of sevenH7651 daysH3117, in the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 bindeth upH2280[H8800] the breachH7667 of his peopleH5971, and healethH7495[H8799] the strokeH4273 of their woundH4347. |
| [27]Beholde, the fame of the Lorde commeth from farre, and his presence is so hotte, that no man is able to abyde: his lippes are full of indignation, and his tongue is as a consuming fire |
[27]Behold, the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 comethH935[H8804] from farH4801, burningH1197[H8802] with his angerH639, and the burdenH4858 thereof is heavyH3514: his lipsH8193 are fullH4390[H8804] of indignationH2195, and his tongueH3956 as a devouringH398[H8802] fireH784: |
| [28]His breath is a vehement flud of water, that reacheth vp to the necke: that he may sift away the heathen in the siue of vanitie, and his breath is a brydle of errour in the iawes of the people |
[28]And his breathH7307, as an overflowingH7857[H8802] streamH5158, shall reach to the midstH2673[H8799] of the neckH6677, to siftH5130[H8687] the nationsH1471 with the sieveH5299 of vanityH7723: and there shall be a bridleH7448 in the jawsH3895 of the peopleH5971, causing them to errH8582.[H8688] |
| [29]And ye shall sing lyke as in the night when the holy solempnitie beginneth, and ye shall haue gladnesse of heart, like as when one commeth with a pipe vnto the hill of the Lorde, and to the most mightie one of Israel |
[29]Ye shall have a songH7892, as in the nightH3915 when a holyH6942 solemnityH2282 is keptH6942[H8692]; and gladnessH8057 of heartH3824, as when one goethH1980[H8802] with a pipeH2485 to comeH935[H8800] into the mountainH2022 of the LORDH3068, to the mighty OneH6697 of IsraelH3478. |
| [30]And the Lorde shall cause his glorious voyce to be hearde, and shall declare his stretched out arme with a terrible countenaunce, & with the flambe of a consuming fire, with noysome lightening, with a showre, and with hayle stones |
[30]And the LORDH3068 shall cause his gloriousH1935 voiceH6963 to be heardH8085[H8689], and shall shewH7200[H8686] the lighting downH5183 of his armH2220, with the indignationH2197 of his angerH639, and with the flameH3851 of a devouringH398[H8802] fireH784, with scatteringH5311, and tempestH2230, and hailstonesH68.[H1259] |
| [31]For thorowe the voyce of the Lorde shall Assur be destroyed, which smote other men with the rodde |
[31]For through the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 shall the AssyrianH804 be beaten downH2865[H8735], which smoteH5221[H8686] with a rodH7626. |
| [32]And it shall come to passe, that whyther soeuer he goeth the rodde shall cleaue vnto him which the Lorde shall laye vpon hym, with tabrettes and harpes: and with great warre shall he fight against his hoast |
[32]And in every placeH3605 where the groundedH4145 staffH4294 shall passH4569, which the LORDH3068 shall layH5117[H8686] upon him, it shall be with tabretsH8596 and harpsH3658: and in battlesH4421 of shakingH8573 will he fightH3898 with itH8738. |
| [33]For the fire of hell is ordayned from the beginning, yea euen for the kyng is it prepared: This hath the Lorde set in the deepe, and made it wide, the burning whereof is fire and muche wood: The breath of the Lorde whiche is like a riuer of brimstone doth kindle it |
[33]For TophetH8613 is ordainedH6186[H8803] of oldH865; yea, for the kingH4428 it is preparedH3559[H8717]; he hath made it deepH6009[H8689] and largeH7337[H8689]: the pileH4071 thereof is fireH784 and muchH7235[H8687] woodH6086; the breathH5397 of the LORDH3068, like a streamH5158 of brimstoneH1614, doth kindleH1197 itH8802. |
