  6:1 ¶
Woe to them that set at nought Zion{gr.Sion}, and that trust in the mountain of Samaria: they have gathered [the harvest of] the heads of the nations, and they have gone in themselves. |
|
6:1 ¶
Woe°
to them [that are] at ease°
in Zion,°
and trust°°
in the mountain°
of Samaria,°
[which are] named°°
chief°
of the nations,°
to whom the house°
of Israel°
came!°° |
|
6:2
O house of Israel, pass by all [of you], and see; and pass by thence to Ematrabba; and thence descend to Gath{gr.Geth} of the Philistines, the chief of all these kingdoms, [see] if their coasts are greater than your coasts. |
|
6:2
Pass°°
ye unto Calneh,°
and see;°°
and from thence°°
go°°°
ye to Hamath°
the great:°°°
then go down°°
to Gath°
of the Philistines:°
[be they] better°
than°
these°
kingdoms?°
or°
their border°
greater°
than your border?°° |
|
6:3
Ye who are approaching the evil day, who are drawing near and adopting false sabbaths; |
|
6:3
Ye that put far away°°
the evil°
day,°
and cause the seat°°
of violence°
to come near;°° |
|
6:4
who sleep upon beds of ivory, and live delicately on their couches, and eat kids out of the flocks, and sucking calves out of the midst of the stalls; |
|
6:4
That lie°°
upon°
beds°
of ivory,°
and stretch°°
themselves upon°
their couches,°
and eat°°
the lambs°
out of the flock,°°
and the calves°
out of the midst°°
of the stall;° |
|
6:5
who excel in the sound of musical instruments; they have regarded them as abiding, not as fleeting [pleasures]; |
|
6:5
That chant°°
to°
the sound°
of the viol,°
[and] invent°°
to themselves instruments°
of musick,°
like David;° |
|
6:6
who drink strained wine, and anoint themselves with the best ointment; and have suffered nothing on occasion of the calamity of Joseph. |
|
6:6
That drink°°
wine°
in bowls,°
and anoint°°
themselves with the chief°
ointments:°
but they are not°
grieved°°
for°
the affliction°
of Joseph.° |
|
6:7 ¶
Therefore now shall they depart into captivity from the dominion of princes, and the neighing of horses shall be cut off from Ephraim. |
|
6:7 ¶
Therefore°
now°
shall they go captive°°
with the first°
that go captive,°°
and the banquet°
of them that stretched°°
themselves shall be removed.°° |
|
6:8
For the Lord has sworn by himself, [saying], Because I abhor all the pride of Jacob, I do also hate his countries, and I will cut off [his] city with all who inhabit it. |
|
6:8
Adonai°
Yahweh°
hath sworn°°
by himself,°
saith°°
Yahweh°
the Elohim°
Sabaoth,°
I°
abhor°°°
the excellency°
of Jacob,°
and hate°°
his palaces:°
therefore will I deliver up°°
the city°
with all that is therein.° |
|
6:9
And it shall come to pass, if there be ten men left in one house, that they shall die. |
|
6:9
And it shall come to pass,°
if°
there remain°°
ten°
men°°
in one°
house,°
that they shall die.°° |
|
6:10
But a remnant shall be left behind, and their relations shall take them, and shall strenuously endeavor to carry forth their bones from the house: and one shall say to the heads of the house, Is there yet [any one] else with thee? And he shall say, No [one] else. And [the other] shall say, Be silent, that thou name not the name of the Lord. |
|
6:10
And a man's uncle°
shall take him up,°°
and he that burneth°°
him, to bring out°°
the bones°
out of°
the house,°
and shall say°°
unto him that°
[is] by the sides°
of the house,°
[Is there] yet°
[any] with°
thee? and he shall say,°°
No.°
Then shall he say,°°
Hold thy tongue:°°
for°
we may not°
make mention°°
of the name°
of Yahweh.° |
|
6:11
For, behold, the Lord commands, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with rents. |
|
6:11
For,°
behold,°
Yahweh°
commandeth,°°
and he will smite°°
the great°
house°
with breaches,°
and the little°
house°
with clefts.° |
|
6:12 ¶
Will horses run upon rocks? will they refrain from neighing at mares? for ye have turned judgment into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness: |
|
6:12 ¶
Shall horses°
run°°
upon the rock?°
will [one] plow°°
[there] with oxen?°
for°
ye have turned°°
judgment°
into gall,°
and the fruit°
of righteousness°
into hemlock:° |
|
6:13
ye who rejoice at vanity, who say, Have we not possessed horns by our own strength? |
|
6:13
Ye which rejoice°°
in a thing°
of nought,°°
which say,°°
Have we not°
taken°°
to us horns°
by our own strength?° |
|
6:14
For behold, O house of Israel, I will raise up against you a nation, saith the Lord of hosts; and they shall afflict you so that ye shall not enter into Hamath{gr.Aemath}, and as it were [from] the river of the wilderness. |
|
6:14
But,°
behold,°
I will raise up°°
against°
you a nation,°
O house°
of Israel,°
saith°°
Yahweh°
the Elohim°
Sabaoth;°
and they shall afflict°°
you from the entering in°°°
of Hemath°
unto°
the river°
of the wilderness.° |
