Moreover take thou up°°°
a lamentation°
for°
the princes°
of Israel,° |
|
19:2
and say, Why is thy mother become a whelp in the midst of lions? in the midst of lions she has multiplied her whelps. |
|
19:2
And say,°°
What°
[is] thy mother?°
A lioness:°
she lay down°°
among°
lions,°
she nourished°°
her whelps°
among°
young lions.° |
|
19:3
And one of her whelps sprang forth; he became a lion, and learned to take prey, he devoured men. |
|
19:3
And she brought up°°
one°
of her whelps:°°
it became°
a young lion,°
and it learned°°
to catch°°
the prey;°
it devoured°°
men.° |
|
19:4
And the nations heard a report of him; he was caught in their pit, and they brought him into the land of Mizraim{gr.Egypt} in chains. |
|
19:4
The nations°
also heard°°
of°
him; he was taken°°
in their pit,°
and they brought°°
him with chains°
unto°
the land°
of Egypt.° |
|
19:5
And she saw that he was driven away from her, [and] her hope [of him] perished, and she took another of her whelps; she made him a lion. |
|
19:5
Now when she saw°°
that°
she had waited,°°
[and] her hope°
was lost,°°
then she took°°
another°
of her whelps,°°
[and] made°°
him a young lion.° |
|
19:6
And he went up and down in the midst of lions, he became a lion, and learned to take prey, he devoured men. |
|
19:6
And he went up and down°°
among°
the lions,°
he became°
a young lion,°
and learned°°
to catch°°
the prey,°
[and] devoured°°
men.° |
|
19:7
And he prowled in his boldness and laid waste their cities, and made the land desolate, and the fullness of it, by the voice of his roaring. |
|
19:7
And he knew°°
their desolate palaces,°°
and he laid waste°°
their cities;°
and the land°
was desolate,°°
and the fulness°
thereof, by the noise°°
of his roaring.° |
|
19:8
Then the nations set upon him from the countries round about, and they spread their nets upon him: he was taken in their pit. |
|
19:8
Then the nations°
set°°
against°
him on every side°
from the provinces,°°
and spread°°
their net°
over°
him: he was taken°°
in their pit.° |
|
19:9
And they put him in chains and in a cage, [and] he came to the king of Babylon; and he cast him into prison, that his voice should not be heard on the mountains of Israel. |
|
19:9
And they put°°
him in ward°
in chains,°
and brought°°
him to°
the king°
of Babylon:°
they brought°°
him into holds,°°
that°
his voice°
should no°
more°
be heard°°
upon°
the mountains°
of Israel.° |
|
19:10 ¶
Thy mother was as a vine and as a blossom on a pomegranate tree, planted by water: her fruit and her shoot abounded by reason of much water. |
|
19:10 ¶
Thy mother°
[is] like a vine°
in thy blood,°°
planted°°
by°
the waters:°
she was°
fruitful°°
and full of branches°
by reason of many°
waters.°° |
|
19:11
And she became a rod for a tribe of princes, and was elevated in her bulk in the midst of [other] trees, and she saw her bulk in the multitude of her branches. |
|
19:11
And she had°
strong°
rods°
for°
the sceptres°
of them that bare rule,°°
and her stature°
was exalted°°
among°°
the thick branches,°
and she appeared°°
in her height°
with the multitude°
of her branches.° |
|
19:12
But she was broken down in wrath, she was cast upon the ground, and the east wind dried up her choice [branches]: vengeance came upon them, and the rod of her strength was withered; fire consumed it. |
|
19:12
But she was plucked up°°
in fury,°
she was cast down°°
to the ground,°
and the east°
wind°
dried up°°
her fruit:°
her strong°
rods°
were broken°°
and withered;°°
the fire°
consumed°°
them. |
|
19:13
And now they have planted her in the wilderness, in a dry land. |
|
19:13
And now°
she [is] planted°°
in the wilderness,°
in a dry°
and thirsty°
ground.° |
|
19:14
And fire is gone out of a rod of her choice [boughs], and has devoured her; and there was no rod of strength in her. Her race is become a parable of lamentation, and it shall be for a lamentation. |
|
19:14
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 sceptre°
to rule.°°
This°
[is] a lamentation,°
and shall be°
for a lamentation.° |
