  16:1 ¶
I will send as it were reptiles on the land: is [not] the mount of the daughter of Zion{gr.Sion} a desolate rock? |
|
16:1 ¶
Send°°
ye the lamb°
to the ruler°°
of the land°
from Sela°°
to the wilderness,°
unto°
the mount°
of the daughter°
of Zion.° |
|
16:2
For thou shalt be as a young bird taken away from a bird that has flown: [even] thou shalt be [so], daughter of Moab: and then do thou, O Arnon, |
|
16:2
For it shall be,°
[that], as a wandering°°
bird°
cast out°°
of the nest,°
[so] the daughters°
of Moab°
shall be°
at the fords°
of Arnon.° |
|
16:3
take farther counsel, and continually make thou a shelter from grief: they flee in darkness at mid-day; they are amazed; be not thou led captive. |
|
16:3
Take°°
counsel,°
execute°°
judgment;°
make°°
thy shadow°
as the night°
in the midst°
of the noonday;°
hide°°
the outcasts;°°
bewray°°
not°
him that wandereth.°° |
|
16:4
The fugitives of Moab shall sojourn with thee; they shall be to you a shelter from the face of the pursuer: for thine alliance has been taken away, and the oppressing ruler has perished from off the earth. |
|
16:4
Let mine outcasts°°
dwell°°
with thee, Moab;°
be°°
thou a covert°
to them from the face°°
of the spoiler:°°
for°
the extortioner°°
is at an end,°°
the spoiler°
ceaseth,°°
the oppressors°°
are consumed°°
out of°
the land.° |
|
16:5
And a throne shall be established with mercy; and one shall sit upon it with truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and earnestly seeking judgements, and hasting righteousness. |
|
16:5
And in mercy°
shall the throne°
be established:°°
and he shall sit°°
upon°
it in truth°
in the tabernacle°
of David,°
judging,°°
and seeking°°
judgment,°
and hasting°
righteousness.° |
|
16:6 ¶
We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud. I have cut off his pride: thy prophecy shall not be thus, [no] not thus. |
|
16:6 ¶
We have heard°°
of the pride°
of Moab;°
[he is] very°
proud:°
[even] of his haughtiness,°
and his pride,°
and his wrath:°
[but] his lies°
[shall] not°
[be] so.° |
|
16:7
Moab shall howl; for all shall howl in the land of Moab: but thou shalt care for them that dwell in Seth, and thou shalt not be ashamed. |
|
16:7
Therefore°
shall Moab°
howl°°
for Moab,°
every one°
shall howl:°°
for the foundations°
of Kirhareseth°
shall ye mourn;°°
surely°
[they are] stricken.° |
|
16:8
The plains of Heshbon{gr.Esebon} shall mourn, the vine of Sebama: swallowing up the nations, trample ye her vines, even to Jazer: ye shall not come together; wander ye in the desert: they that were sent are deserted, for they have gone over to the sea. |
|
16:8
For°
the fields°
of Heshbon°
languish,°°
[and] the vine°
of Sibmah:°
the lords°
of the heathen°
have broken down°°
the principal plants°
thereof, they are come°°
[even] unto°
Jazer,°
they wandered°°
[through] the wilderness:°
her branches°
are stretched out,°°
they are gone over°°
the sea.° |
|
16:9 ¶
Therefore will I weep as with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sebama; Heshbon{gr.Esebon} and Eleale have cast down thy trees; for I will trample on thy harvest and on thy vintages, and all [thy plants] shall fall. |
|
16:9 ¶
Therefore°°
I will bewail°°
with the weeping°
of Jazer°
the vine°
of Sibmah:°
I will water°°
thee with my tears,°
O Heshbon,°
and Elealeh:°
for°
the shouting°
for°
thy summer fruits°
and for°
thy harvest°
is fallen.°° |
|
16:10
And gladness and rejoicing shall be taken away from the vineyards; and they shall not at all tread wine into the vats; for [the vintage] has ceased. |
|
16:10
And gladness°
is taken away,°°
and joy°
out of°
the plentiful field;°
and in the vineyards°
there shall be no°
singing,°°
neither°
shall there be shouting:°°
the treaders°°
shall tread°
out°°
no°
wine°
in [their] presses;°
I have made [their vintage] shouting°
to cease.°° |
|
16:11
Therefore my belly shall sound as a harp for Moab, and thou hast repaired my inward parts as a wall. |
|
16:11
Wherefore°°
my bowels°
shall sound°°
like an harp°
for Moab,°
and mine inward parts°
for Kirharesh.° |
|
16:12 ¶
And it shall be to thy shame, (for Moab is wearied at the altars,) that he shall go in to the idols thereof to pray, but they shall not be at all able to deliver him. |
|
16:12 ¶
And it shall come to pass,°
when°
it is seen°°
that°
Moab°
is weary°°
on°
the high place,°
that he shall come°°
to°
his sanctuary°
to pray;°°
but he shall not°
prevail.°° |
|
16:13
This is the word which the Lord spoke against Moab, when he spoke. |
|
16:13
This°
[is] the word°
that°
Yahweh°
hath spoken°°
concerning°
Moab°
since that time.°° |
|
16:14
And now I say, in three years, of the years of an hireling, the glory of Moab shall be dishonoured [with] all his great wealth; and he shall be left few in number, and not honoured. |
|
16:14
But now°
Yahweh°
hath spoken,°°
saying,°°
Within three°
years,°
as the years°
of an hireling,°
and the glory°
of Moab°
shall be contemned,°°
with all°
that great°
multitude;°
and the remnant°
[shall be] very°
small°°
[and] feeble.°° |
