  29:1 ¶
Alas for the city of Ariel, which David besieged. Gather ye fruits year by year; eat ye, for ye shall eat with Moab. |
|
29:1 ¶
Woe°
to Ariel,°
to Ariel,°
the city°
[where] David°
dwelt!°°
add°°
ye year°
to°
year;°
let them kill°°
sacrifices.° |
|
29:2
For I will grievously afflict Ariel: and her strength and her wealth shall be mine. |
|
29:2
Yet I will distress°°
Ariel,°
and there shall be°
heaviness°
and sorrow:°
and it shall be°
unto me as Ariel.° |
|
29:3
And I will compass thee about like David, and will raise a mound about thee, and set up towers round thee. |
|
29:3
And I will camp°°
against°
thee round about,°
and will lay siege°°
against°
thee with a mount,°
and I will raise°°
forts°
against°
thee. |
|
29:4
And thy words shall be brought down to the earth, and thy words shall sink down to the earth, and thy voice shall be as they that speak out of the earth, and thy voice shall be lowered to the ground. |
|
29:4
And thou shalt be brought down,°°
[and] shalt speak°°
out of the ground,°°
and thy speech°
shall be low°°
out of the dust,°°
and thy voice°
shall be,°
as of one that hath a familiar spirit,°
out of the ground,°°
and thy speech°
shall whisper°°
out of the dust.°° |
|
29:5
But the wealth of the ungodly shall be as dust from a wheel, and the multitude of them that oppress thee as flying chaff, and it shall be suddenly as a moment, |
|
29:5
Moreover the multitude°
of thy strangers°°
shall be°
like small°
dust,°
and the multitude°
of the terrible ones°
[shall be] as chaff°
that passeth away:°°
yea, it shall be°
at an instant°
suddenly.° |
|
29:6
from the Lord of Hosts: for there shall be a visitation with thunder, and earthquake, and a loud noise, a rushing tempest, and devouring flame of fire. |
|
29:6
Thou shalt be visited°°
of°°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth°
with thunder,°
and with earthquake,°
and great°
noise,°
with storm°
and tempest,°
and the flame°
of devouring°°
fire.° |
|
29:7 ¶
And the wealth of all the nations together, as many as have fought against Ariel, and all they that war against Jerusalem, and all who are gathered against her, and they that distress her, shall be as one that dreams in sleep by night. |
|
29:7 ¶
And the multitude°
of all°
the nations°
that fight°°
against°
Ariel,°
even all°
that fight°°°
against her and her munition,°
and that distress°°
her, shall be°
as a dream°
of a night°
vision.° |
|
29:8
And as men drink and eat in sleep, and when they have arisen, the dream is vain: and as a thirsty man dreams as if he drank, and having arisen is still thirsty, and his soul has desired in vain: so shall be the wealth of all the nations, as many as have fought against the mount Zion{gr.Sion}. |
|
29:8
It shall even be°
as when°
an hungry°
[man] dreameth,°°
and, behold,°
he eateth;°°
but he awaketh,°°
and his soul°
is empty:°
or as when°
a thirsty man°
dreameth,°°
and, behold,°
he drinketh;°°
but he awaketh,°°
and, behold,°
[he is] faint,°
and his soul°
hath appetite:°°
so°
shall the multitude°
of all°
the nations°
be,°
that fight°°
against°
mount°
Zion.° |
|
29:9 ¶
Faint ye, and be amazed, and be overpowered, not with strong drink nor with wine. |
|
29:9 ¶
Stay°°
yourselves,°
and wonder;°°
cry ye out,°°
and cry:°°
they are drunken,°°
but not°
with wine;°
they stagger,°°
but not°
with strong drink.° |
|
29:10
For the Lord has made you to drink a spirit of deep sleep; and he shall close their eyes, and [the eyes] of their prophets and of their rulers, who see secret things. |
|
29:10
For°
Yahweh°
hath poured out°°
upon°
you the spirit°
of deep sleep,°
and hath closed°°°
your eyes:°°
the prophets°
and your rulers,°
the seers°
hath he covered.°° |
|
29:11
And all these things shall be to you as the words of this sealed book, which if they shall give to a learned man, saying, Read this, he shall then say, I cannot read [it], for it is sealed. |
|
29:11
And the vision°
of all°
is become°
unto you as the words°
of a book°
that is sealed,°°
which°
[men] deliver°°
to°
one that is learned,°°°
saying,°°
Read°°
this,°
I pray thee:°
and he saith,°°
I cannot;°°°
for°
it°
[is] sealed:°° |
|
29:12
And this book shall be given into the hands of a man that is unlearned, and [one] shall say to him, Read this; and he shall say, I am not learned. |
|
29:12
And the book°
is delivered°°
to°
him that°
is not learned,°°°°
saying,°°
Read°°
this,°
I pray thee:°
and he saith,°°
I am not learned.°°°° |
|
29:13 ¶
And the Lord has said, This people draw nigh to me with their mouth, and they honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me: but in vain do they worship me, teaching the commandments and doctrines of men. |
|
29:13 ¶
Wherefore Yahweh°
said,°°
Forasmuch°°
as this°
people°
draw near°°
[me] with their mouth,°
and with their lips°
do honour°°
me, but have removed°°
their heart°
far°°°
from°
me, and their fear°
toward°
me is°
taught°°
by the precept°
of men:°° |
|
29:14
Therefore behold I will proceed to remove this people, and I will remove them: and I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will hide the understanding of the prudent. |
|
29:14
Therefore,°
behold,°
I will proceed°°
to do a marvellous work°°
among°
this°
people,°
[even] a marvellous work°°
and a wonder:°
for the wisdom°
of their wise°
[men] shall perish,°°
and the understanding°
of their prudent°°
[men] shall be hid.°° |
|
29:15
Woe to them that deepen their counsel, and not by the Lord. Woe to them that take secret counsel, and whose works are in darkness, and they say, Who has seen us? and who shall know us, or what we do? |
|
29:15
Woe°
unto them that seek deep°°
to hide°°
their counsel°
from Yahweh,°°
and their works°
are°
in the dark,°
and they say,°°
Who°
seeth°°
us? and who°
knoweth°°
us? |
|
29:16
Shall ye not be counted as clay of the potter? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Thou didst not form me? or the work to the maker, Thou hast not made me wisely? |
|
29:16
Surely°
your turning of things upside down°°
shall be esteemed°°
as the potter's°°
clay:°
for°
shall the work°
say°°
of him that made°°
it, He made°°
me not?°
or shall the thing framed°
say°°
of him that framed°°
it, He had no understanding?°°° |
|
29:17
[Is it] not yet a little while, and Lebanon{gr.Libanus} shall be changed as the mountains of Carmel{gr.Chermel}, and Carmel{gr.Chermel} shall be reckoned as a forest? |
|
29:17
[Is] it not°
yet°
a very°
little while,°
and Lebanon°
shall be turned°°
into a fruitful field,°
and the fruitful field°
shall be esteemed°°
as a forest?° |
|
29:18 ¶
And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of the book, and they that are in darkness, and they that are in mist: the eyes of the blind shall see, |
|
29:18 ¶
And in that°
day°
shall the deaf°
hear°°
the words°
of the book,°
and the eyes°
of the blind°
shall see°°
out of obscurity,°°
and out of darkness.°° |
|
29:19
and the poor shall rejoice with joy because of the Lord, and they that had no hope among men shall be filled with joy. |
|
29:19
The meek°
also shall increase°°
[their] joy°
in Yahweh,°
and the poor°
among men°
shall rejoice°°
in the Holy One°
of Israel.° |
|
29:20
The lawless man has come to nought, and the proud man has perished, and they that transgress mischievously have been utterly destroyed: |
|
29:20
For°
the terrible one°
is brought to nought,°°
and the scorner°°
is consumed,°°
and all°
that watch°°
for iniquity°
are cut off:°° |
|
29:21
and they that cause men to sin by a word: and men shall make all that reprove in the gates an offence, because they have unjustly turned aside the righteous. |
|
29:21
That make a man°
an offender°°°
for a word,°
and lay a snare°°
for him that reproveth°°
in the gate,°
and turn aside°°
the just°
for a thing of nought.° |
|
29:22
Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the house of Jacob, whom he set apart from Abraham{gr.Abraam}, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall he now change countenance. |
|
29:22
Therefore°
thus°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
who°
redeemed°°°
Abraham,°
concerning°
the house°
of Jacob,°
Jacob°
shall not°
now°
be ashamed,°°
neither°
shall his face°
now°
wax pale.°° |
|
29:23
But when their children shall have seen my works, they shall sanctify my name for my sake, and they sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel. |
|
29:23
But when°
he seeth°°
his children,°
the work°
of mine hands,°
in the midst°
of him, they shall sanctify°°
my name,°
and sanctify°°°
the Holy One°
of Jacob,°
and shall fear°°
the Elohim°
of Israel.° |
|
29:24
And they that erred in spirit shall know understanding, and the murmurers shall learn obedience, and the stammering tongues shall learn to speak peace. |
|
29:24
They also that erred°°
in spirit°
shall come°°
to understanding,°
and they that murmured°°
shall learn°°
doctrine.° |
