| [1]Thou also, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel, |
[1]Moreover take thou upH5375[H8798] a lamentationH7015 for the princesH5387 of IsraelH3478, |
| [2]And say, Wherefore lay thy mother as a lioness among the lions? She nourished her young ones among the lion's whelps, |
[2]And sayH559[H8804], What is thy motherH517? A lionessH3833: she lay downH7257[H8804] among lionsH738, she nourishedH7235[H8765] her whelpsH1482 amongH8432 young lionsH3715. |
| [3]And she brought up one of her whelps, and it became a lion, and it learned to catch the prey, and it devoured men. |
[3]And she brought upH5927[H8686] oneH259 of her whelpsH1482: it became a young lionH3715, and it learnedH3925[H8799] to catchH2963[H8800] the preyH2964; it devouredH398[H8804] menH120. |
| [4]The nations also heard of him, and he was taken in their nets, and they brought him in chains unto the land of Egypt. |
[4]The nationsH1471 also heardH8085[H8799] of him; he was takenH8610[H8738] in their pitH7845, and they broughtH935[H8686] him with chainsH2397 unto the landH776 of EgyptH4714. |
| [5]Now when she saw, that she had waited and her hope was lost, she took another of her whelps, and made him a lion. |
[5]Now when she sawH7200[H8799] that she had waitedH3176[H8738], and her hopeH8615 was lostH6[H8804], then she tookH3947[H8799] anotherH259 of her whelpsH1482, and madeH7760[H8804] him a young lionH3715. |
| [6]Which went among the lions, and became a lion, and learned to catch the prey, and he devoured men. |
[6]And he went up and downH1980[H8691] amongH8432 the lionsH738, he became a young lionH3715, and learnedH3925[H8799] to catchH2963[H8800] the preyH2964, and devouredH398[H8804] menH120. |
| [7]And he knew their widows, and he destroyed their cities, and the land was wasted, and all that was therein by the noise of his roaring. |
[7]And he knewH3045[H8799] their desolate palacesH490, and he laid wasteH2717[H8689] their citiesH5892; and the landH776 was desolateH3456[H8799], and the fulnessH4393 thereof, by the noiseH6963 of his roaringH7581. |
| [8]Then the nations set against him on every side of the countries, and laid their nets for him: so he was taken in their pit. |
[8]Then the nationsH1471 setH5414[H8799] against him on every sideH5439 from the provincesH4082, and spreadH6566[H8799] their netH7568 over him: he was takenH8610[H8738] in their pitH7845. |
| [9]And they put him in prison and in chains, and brought him to the king of Babylon, and they put him in holds, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel. |
[9]And they putH5414[H8799] him in wardH5474 in chainsH2397, and broughtH935[H8686] him to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: they broughtH935[H8686] him into holdsH4685, that his voiceH6963 should no more be heardH8085[H8735] upon the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478. |
| [10]Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she brought forth fruit and branches by the abundant waters, |
[10]Thy motherH517 is like a vineH1612 in thy bloodH1818[H8676][H1818], plantedH8362[H8803] by the watersH4325: she was fruitfulH6509[H8802] and full of branchesH6058 by reason of manyH7227 watersH4325. |
| [11]And she had strong rods for the scepters of them that bear rule, and her stature was exalted among the branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches. |
[11]And she had strongH5797 rodsH4294 for the sceptresH7626 of them that bare ruleH4910[H8802], and her statureH6967 was exaltedH1361[H8799] among the thick branchesH5688, and she appearedH7200[H8735] in her heightH1363 with the multitudeH7230 of her branchesH1808. |
| [12]But she was plucked up in wrath: she was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up her fruit: her branches were broken, and withered: as for the rod of her strength, the fire consumed it. |
[12]But she was plucked upH5428[H8714] in furyH2534, she was cast downH7993[H8717] to the groundH776, and the eastH6921 windH7307 dried upH3001[H8689] her fruitH6529: her strongH5797 rodsH4294 were brokenH6561[H8694] and witheredH3001[H8804]; the fireH784 consumedH398 themH8804. |
| [13]And now she is planted in the wilderness in a dry and thirsty ground. |
[13]And now she is plantedH8362[H8803] in the wildernessH4057, in a dryH6723 and thirstyH6772 groundH776. |
| [14]And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, which hath devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod to be a scepter to rule: this is a lamentation and shall be for a lamentation. |
[14]And fireH784 is gone outH3318[H8799] of a rodH4294 of her branchesH905, which hath devouredH398[H8804] her fruitH6529, so that she hath no strongH5797 rodH4294 to be a sceptreH7626 to ruleH4910[H8800]. This is a lamentationH7015, and shall be for a lamentationH7015. |
