[1]The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see. |
| [2]Lift ye upH5375[H8798] a bannerH5251 upon the highH8192[H8737] mountainH2022, exaltH7311[H8685] the voiceH6963 unto them, shakeH5130[H8685] the handH3027, that they may goH935[H8799] into the gatesH6607 of the noblesH5081. |

| [3]I have commandedH6680[H8765] my sanctified onesH6942[H8794], I have also calledH7121[H8804] my mighty onesH1368 for mine angerH639, even them that rejoiceH5947 in my highnessH1346. |
[3]I have commanded My consecrated ones, yea, I have called My mighty ones for mine anger, even My proudly exulting ones. |
| [4]The noiseH6963 of a multitudeH1995 in the mountainsH2022, like asH1823 of a greatH7227 peopleH5971; a tumultuousH7588 noiseH6963 of the kingdomsH4467 of nationsH1471 gathered togetherH622[H8737]: the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 musterethH6485[H8764] the hostH6635 of the battleH4421. |
[4]Hark, a tumult in the mountains, like as of a great people! Hark, the uproar of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together! 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 of hosts mustereth the host of the battle. |
| [5]They comeH935[H8802] from a farH4801 countryH776, from the endH7097 of heavenH8064, even the LORDH3068, and the weaponsH3627 of his indignationH2195, to destroyH2254[H8763] the whole landH776. |
[5]They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and the weapons of His indignation, to destroy the whole earth. |
| [6]HowlH3213[H8685] ye; for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is at handH7138; it shall comeH935[H8799] as a destructionH7701 from the AlmightyH7706. |
[6]Howl ye; for the day of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 is at hand; as destruction from the Almighty shall it come. |
| [7]Therefore shall all handsH3027 be faintH7503[H8799], and every man'sH582 heartH3824 shall meltH4549:[H8735] |
[7]Therefore shall all hands be slack, and every heart of man shall melt. |
| [8]And they shall be afraidH926[H8738]: pangsH6735 and sorrowsH2256 shall take holdH270[H8799] of them; they shall be in painH2342[H8799] as a woman that travailethH3205[H8802]: they shall be amazedH8539[H8799] oneH376 at anotherH7453; their facesH6440 shall be as flamesH3851. |
[8]And they shall be affrighted; pangs and throes shall take hold them; they shall be in pain as a woman in travail; they shall look aghast one at another; their faces shall be faces of flame. |
| [9]Behold, the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 comethH935[H8804], cruelH394 both with wrathH5678 and fierceH2740 angerH639, to layH7760[H8800] the landH776 desolateH8047: and he shall destroyH8045[H8686] the sinners thereof out of itH2400. |
[9]Behold, the day of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 cometh, cruel, and full of wrath and fierce anger; to make the earth desolation, and to destroy the sinners thereof out of it, |
| [10]For the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 and the constellationsH3685 thereof shall not giveH1984[H8686] their lightH216: the sunH8121 shall be darkenedH2821[H8804] in his going forthH3318[H8800], and the moonH3394 shall not cause her lightH216 to shineH5050.[H8686] |
[10]For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. |
| [11]And I will punishH6485[H8804] the worldH8398 for their evilH7451, and the wickedH7563 for their iniquityH5771; and I will cause the arrogancyH1347 of the proudH2086 to ceaseH7673[H8689], and will lay lowH8213[H8686] the haughtinessH1346 of the terribleH6184. |
[11]And I will visit upon the world their evil, and upon the wicked their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the tyrants. |
| [12]I will make a manH582 more preciousH3365[H8686] than fine goldH6337; even a manH120 than the golden wedgeH3800 of OphirH211. |
[12]I will make man more rare than fine gold, even man than the pure gold of Ophir. |
| [13]Therefore I will shakeH7264[H8686] the heavensH8064, and the earthH776 shall removeH7493[H8799] out of her placeH4725, in the wrathH5678 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and in the dayH3117 of his fierceH2740 angerH639. |
[13]Therefore I will make the heavens to tremble, and the earth shall be shaken out of her place, for the wrath of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 of hosts, and for the day of His fierce anger. |
| [14]And it shall be as the chasedH5080[H8716] roeH6643, and as a sheepH6629 that no man taketh upH6908[H8764]: they shall every manH376 turnH6437[H8799] to his own peopleH5971, and fleeH5127[H8799] every oneH376 into his own landH776. |
[14]And it shall come to pass, that as the chased gazelle, and as sheep that no man gathereth, they shall turn every man to his own people, and shall flee every man to his own land. |
| [15]Every one that is foundH4672[H8737] shall be thrust throughH1856[H8735]; and every one that is joinedH5595[H8737] unto them shall fallH5307[H8799] by the swordH2719. |
[15]Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is caught shall fall by the sword. |
| [16]Their childrenH5768 also shall be dashed to piecesH7376[H8792] before their eyesH5869; their housesH1004 shall be spoiledH8155[H8735], and their wivesH802 ravishedH7901[H8735][H8675][H7693].[H8735] |
[16]Their babes also shall be dashed in pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished. |
| [17]Behold, I will stir upH5782[H8688] the MedesH4074 against them, which shall not regardH2803[H8799] silverH3701; and as for goldH2091, they shall not delightH2654 in itH8799. |
[17]Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who shall not regard silver, and as for gold, they shall not delight in it. |
| [18]Their bowsH7198 also shall dashH7376 the young menH5288 to piecesH7376[H8762]; and they shall have no pityH7355[H8762] on the fruitH6529 of the wombH990; their eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347[H8799] childrenH1121. |
[18]And their bows shall dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children. |
| [19]And BabylonH894, the gloryH6643 of kingdomsH4467, the beautyH8597 of the Chaldees'H3778 excellencyH1347, shall be as when GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017. |
[19]And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. |
| [20]It shall neverH5331 be inhabitedH3427[H8799], neither shall it be dweltH7931[H8799] in from generationH1755 to generationH1755: neither shall the ArabianH6163 pitch tentH167[H8762] there; neither shall the shepherdsH7462[H8802] make their foldH7257 thereH8686. |
[20]It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation; neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there. |
| [21]But wild beasts of the desertH6728 shall lieH7257[H8804] there; and their housesH1004 shall be fullH4390[H8804] of doleful creaturesH255; and owlsH1323[H3284] shall dwellH7931[H8804] there, and satyrsH8163 shall danceH7540 thereH8762. |
[21]But wild-cats shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of ferrets; and ostriches shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there. |
| [22]And the wild beasts of the islandsH338 shall cryH6030[H8804] in their desolate housesH490, and dragonsH8577 in their pleasantH6027 palacesH1964: and her timeH6256 is nearH7138 to comeH935[H8800], and her daysH3117 shall not be prolongedH4900.[H8735] |
[22]And jackals shall howl in their castles, and wild-dogs in the pleasant palaces; and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged. |
