  22:1 ¶
THE WORD OF THE VALLEY OF ZION{gr.SION}. What has happened to thee, that now ye are all gone up to the housetops which help you not? |
|
22:1 ¶
The burden°
of the valley°
of vision.°
What°
aileth thee now,°
that°
thou art wholly°
gone up°°
to the housetops?° |
|
22:2
The city is filled with shouting [men]: thy slain are not slain with swords, nor are thy dead those who have died in battle. |
|
22:2
Thou that art full°
of stirs,°
a tumultuous°°
city,°
a joyous°
city:°
thy slain°
[men are] not°
slain°
with the sword,°
nor°
dead°°
in battle.° |
|
22:3
All thy princes have fled, and [thy] captives are tightly bound, and the mighty [men] in thee have fled far away. |
|
22:3
All°
thy rulers°
are fled°°
together,°
they are bound°°
by the archers:°°
all°
that are found°°
in thee are bound°°
together,°
[which] have fled°°
from far.°° |
|
22:4
Therefore I said, Let me alone, I will weep bitterly; labour not to comfort me for the breach of the daughter of my people. |
|
22:4
Therefore°°
said°°
I, Look away°°
from°
me; I will weep°
bitterly,°°
labour°°
not°
to comfort°°
me, because°
of the spoiling°
of the daughter°
of my people.° |
|
22:5
For [it is] a day of trouble, and of destruction, and of treading down, and [there is] perplexity [sent] from the Lord of hosts: they wander in the valley of Zion{gr.Sion}; they wander from the least to the greatest on the mountains. |
|
22:5
For°
[it is] a day°
of trouble,°
and of treading down,°
and of perplexity°
by Adonai°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth°
in the valley°
of vision,°
breaking°°
down°
the walls,°
and of crying°
to°
the mountains.° |
|
22:6
And the Elamites took [their] quivers, and [there were] men mounted on horses, and [there was] a gathering for battle. |
|
22:6
And Elam°
bare°°
the quiver°
with chariots°
of men°
[and] horsemen,°
and Kir°
uncovered°°
the shield.° |
|
22:7
And it shall be [that] thy choice valleys shall be filled with chariots, and horsemen shall block up thy gates. |
|
22:7
And it shall come to pass,°
[that] thy choicest°°
valleys°
shall be full°°
of chariots,°
and the horsemen°
shall set°°
themselves in array°°
at the gate.° |
|
22:8 ¶
And they shall uncover the gates of Judah{gr.Juda}, and they shall look in that day on the choice houses of the city. |
|
22:8 ¶
And he discovered°°°
the covering°
of Judah,°
and thou didst look°°
in that°
day°
to°
the armour°
of the house°
of the forest.° |
|
22:9
And they shall uncover the secret places of the houses of the citadel of David: and they saw that they were many, and that one [had] turned the water of the old pool into the city; |
|
22:9
Ye have seen°°
also the breaches°
of the city°
of David,°
that°
they are many:°°
and ye gathered together°°°
the waters°
of the lower°
pool.° |
|
22:10
and that they [had] pulled down the houses of Jerusalem, to fortify the wall of the city. |
|
22:10
And ye have numbered°°
the houses°
of Jerusalem,°
and the houses°
have ye broken down°°
to fortify°°
the wall.° |
|
22:11
And ye procured to yourselves water between the two walls within the ancient pool: but ye looked not to him that made it from the beginning, and regarded not him that created it. |
|
22:11
Ye made°°
also a ditch°
between°
the two walls°
for the water°
of the old°
pool:°
but ye have not°
looked°°
unto°
the maker°°
thereof, neither°
had respect°°
unto him that fashioned°°
it long ago.°° |
|
22:12
And the Lord, the Lord of hosts, called in that day for weeping, and lamentation, and baldness, and for girding with sackcloth: |
|
22:12
And in that°
day°
did Adonai°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth°
call°°
to weeping,°
and to mourning,°
and to baldness,°
and to girding°°
with sackcloth:° |
|
22:13
but they engaged in joy and gladness, slaying calves, and killing sheep, so as to eat flesh, and drink wine; saying, Let us eat and drink; for to-morrow we die. |
|
22:13
And behold°
joy°
and gladness,°
slaying°°
oxen,°
and killing°°
sheep,°
eating°°
flesh,°
and drinking°°
wine:°
let us eat°°
and drink;°°
for°
to morrow°
we shall die.°° |
|
22:14
And these things are revealed in the ears of the Lord of hosts: for this sin shall not be forgiven you, until ye die. |
|
22:14
And it was revealed°°
in mine ears°
by Yahweh°
Sabaoth,°
Surely°
this°
iniquity°
shall not be purged°°
from you till°
ye die,°°
saith°°
Adonai°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth.° |
|
22:15 ¶
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Go into the chamber, to Shebna{gr.Somnas} the treasurer, and say to him, Why art thou here? |
|
22:15 ¶
Thus°
saith°°
Adonai°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth,°
Go,°°°
get°°
thee unto°
this°
treasurer,°°
[even] unto°
Shebna,°
which°
[is] over°
the house,°
[and say], |
|
22:16
and what hast thou to do here, that thou hast here hewn thyself a sepulchre, and madest thyself a sepulchre on high, and hast graven for thyself a dwelling in the rock? |
|
22:16
What°
hast thou here?°
and whom°
hast thou here,°
that°
thou hast hewed thee out°°
a sepulchre°
here,°
[as] he that heweth him out°°
a sepulchre°
on high,°
[and] that graveth°°
an habitation°
for himself in a rock?° |
|
22:17
Behold now, the Lord of hosts casts forth and will utterly destroy [such] a man, and will take away thy robe and thy glorious crown, |
|
22:17
Behold,°
Yahweh°
will carry thee away°°
with a mighty°
captivity,°
and will surely°°
cover°°
thee. |
|
22:18
and will cast thee into a great and unmeasured land, and there thou shalt die: and he will bring thy fair chariot to shame, and the house of thy prince to be trodden down. |
|
22:18
He will surely°°
violently turn°°
and toss°
thee [like] a ball°
into°
a large°°
country:°
there°
shalt thou die,°°
and there°
the chariots°
of thy glory°
[shall be] the shame°
of thy adon's°
house.° |
|
22:19
And thou shalt be removed from thy stewardship, and from thy place. |
|
22:19
And I will drive°°
thee from thy station,°°
and from thy state°°
shall he pull thee down.°° |
|
22:20 ¶
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah{gr.Chelcias}: |
|
22:20 ¶
And it shall come to pass°
in that°
day,°
that I will call°°
my servant°
Eliakim°
the son°
of Hilkiah:° |
|
22:21
and I will put on him thy robe, and I will grant him thy crown with power, and I will give thy stewardship into his hands: and he shall be as a father to them that dwell in Jerusalem, and to them that dwell in Judah{gr.Juda}. |
|
22:21
And I will clothe°°
him with thy robe,°
and strengthen°°
him with thy girdle,°
and I will commit°°
thy government°
into his hand:°
and he shall be°
a father°
to the inhabitants°°
of Jerusalem,°
and to the house°
of Judah.° |
|
22:22
And I will give him the glory of David; and he shall rule, and there shall be none to speak against him: and I will give him the key of the house of David [upon] his shoulder; and he shall open, and there shall be none to shut; and he shall shut, and there shall be none to open. |
|
22:22
And the key°
of the house°
of David°
will I lay°°
upon°
his shoulder;°
so he shall open,°°
and none°
shall shut;°°
and he shall shut,°°
and none°
shall open.°° |
|
22:23
And I will make him a ruler in a sure place, and he shall be for a glorious throne of his father's house. |
|
22:23
And I will fasten°°
him [as] a nail°
in a sure°°
place;°
and he shall be°
for a glorious°
throne°
to his father's°
house.° |
|
22:24
And every one that is glorious in the house of his father shall trust in him, from the least to the greatest; and they shall depend upon him in that day. |
|
22:24
And they shall hang°°
upon°
him all°
the glory°
of his father's°
house,°
the offspring°
and the issue,°
all°
vessels°
of small°
quantity,°
from the vessels°°
of cups,°
even to°
all°
the vessels°
of flagons.° |
|
22:25
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, The man that is fastened in the sure place shall be removed and be taken away, and shall fall; and the glory that is upon him shall be utterly destroyed: for the Lord has spoken it. |
|
22:25
In that°
day,°
saith°°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth,°
shall the nail°
that is fastened°°
in the sure°°
place°
be removed,°°
and be cut down,°°
and fall;°°
and the burden°
that°
[was] upon°
it shall be cut off:°°
for°
Yahweh°
hath spoken°°
[it]. |
