[1]I will standH5975[H8799] upon my watchH4931, and setH3320[H8691] me upon the towerH4692, and will watchH6822[H8762] to seeH7200[H8800] what he will sayH1696[H8762] unto me, and what I shall answerH7725[H8686] when I am reprovedH8433.
[2]And the LORDH3068 answeredH6030[H8799] me, and saidH559[H8799], WriteH3789[H8798] the visionH2377, and make it plainH874[H8761] upon tablesH3871, that he may runH7323[H8799] that readethH7121 itH8802.
[3]For the visionH2377 is yet for an appointed timeH4150, but at the endH7093 it shall speakH6315[H8686], and not lieH3576[H8762]: though it tarryH4102[H8698], waitH2442[H8761] for it; because it will surelyH935[H8800] comeH935[H8799], it will not tarryH309.[H8762]
[4]Behold, his soulH5315 which is lifted upH6075[H8795] is not uprightH3474[H8804] in him: but the justH6662 shall liveH2421[H8799] by his faithH530.
[5]Yea also, because he transgressethH898[H8802] by wineH3196, he is a proudH3093 manH1397, neither keepeth at homeH5115[H8799], who enlargethH7337[H8689] his desireH5315 as hellH7585, and is as deathH4194, and cannot be satisfiedH7646[H8799], but gatherethH622[H8799] unto him all nationsH1471, and heapethH6908[H8799] unto him all peopleH5971:
[6]Shall not all these take upH5375[H8799] a parableH4912 against him, and a tauntingH4426 proverbH2420 against him, and sayH559[H8799], WoeH1945 to him that increasethH7235[H8688] that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladethH3513[H8688] himself with thick clayH5671!
[7]Shall they not rise upH6965[H8799] suddenlyH6621 that shall biteH5391[H8802] thee, and awakeH3364[H8799] that shall vexH2111[H8772] thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto themH4933?
[8]Because thou hast spoiledH7997[H8804] manyH7227 nationsH1471, all the remnantH3499 of the peopleH5971 shall spoilH7997[H8799] thee; because of men'sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 thereinH8802.
[9]WoeH1945 to him that covetethH1214[H8802] an evilH7451 covetousnessH1215 to his houseH1004, that he may setH7760[H8800] his nestH7064 on highH4791, that he may be deliveredH5337[H8736] from the powerH3709 of evilH7451!
[10]Thou hast consultedH3289[H8804] shameH1322 to thy houseH1004 by cutting offH7096[H8800] manyH7227 peopleH5971, and hast sinnedH2398[H8802] against thy soulH5315.
[11]For the stoneH68 shall cry outH2199[H8799] of the wallH7023, and the beam outH3714 of the timberH6086 shall answerH6030 itH8799.
[12]WoeH1945 to him that buildethH1129[H8802] a townH5892 with bloodH1818, and stablishethH3559[H8790] a cityH7151 by iniquityH5766!
[13]Behold, is it not of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 that the peopleH5971 shall labourH3021[H8799] in the veryH1767 fireH784, and the peopleH3816 shall wearyH3286[H8799] themselves for veryH1767 vanityH7385?
[14]For the earthH776 shall be filledH4390[H8735] with the knowledgeH3045[H8800] of the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068, as the watersH4325 coverH3680[H8762] the seaH3220.
[15]WoeH1945 unto him that giveth his neighbourH7453 drinkH8248[H8688], that puttestH5596[H8764] thy bottleH2573 to him, and makest him drunkenH7937[H8763] also, that thou mayest lookH5027[H8687] on their nakednessH4589!
[16]Thou art filledH7646[H8804] with shameH7036 for gloryH3519: drinkH8354[H8798] thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncoveredH6188[H8734]: the cupH3563 of the LORD'SH3068 right handH3225 shall be turnedH5437[H8735] unto thee, and shameful spewingH7022 shall be on thy gloryH3519.
[17]For the violenceH2555 of LebanonH3844 shall coverH3680[H8762] thee, and the spoilH7701 of beastsH929, which made them afraidH2865[H8686], because of men'sH120 bloodH1818, and for the violenceH2555 of the landH776, of the cityH7151, and of all that dwellH3427 thereinH8802.
[18]What profitethH3276[H8689] the graven imageH6459 that the makerH3335[H8802] thereof hath gravenH6458[H8804] it; the molten imageH4541, and a teacherH3384[H8688] of liesH8267, that the makerH3335[H8802] of his workH3336 trustethH982[H8804] therein, to makeH6213[H8800] dumbH483 idolsH457?
[19]WoeH1945 unto him that saithH559[H8802] to the woodH6086, AwakeH6974[H8685]; to the dumbH1748 stoneH68, AriseH5782[H8798], it shall teachH3384[H8686]! Behold, it is laidH8610[H8803] over with goldH2091 and silverH3701, and there is no breathH7307 at all in the midst of itH7130.
[20]But the LORDH3068 is in his holyH6944 templeH1964: let all the earthH776 keep silenceH2013[H8761] before himH6440.
