Isaiah 17

1 Syria and Israel are threatened. 6 A remnant shall forsake idolatry. 9 The rest shall be plagued for their impiety. 12 The woe of Israel's enemies.

 17:1 The oracle 4853b concerning Damascus 1834. “Behold 2009, Damascus 1834 is about to be removed 5493 from being a city 5892b And will become 1961 a fallen 4654a ruin 4596.

 17:2 “The cities 5892b of Aroer 6177 are forsaken 5800a; They will be for flocks 5739 to lie 7257 down 7257 in, And there 369 will be no 369 one 369 to frighten 2729 [them].

 17:3 “The fortified 4013 city 4013 will disappear 7673a from Ephraim 669, And sovereignty 4467 from Damascus 1834 And the remnant 7605 of Aram 758; They will be like the glory 3519b of the sons 1121 of Israel 3478,” Declares 5002 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635.

 17:4 ¶ Now in that day 3117 the glory 3519b of Jacob 3290 will fade 1809, And the fatness 4924a of his flesh 1320 will become 7329 lean 7329.

 17:5 It will be even like the reaper 622 gathering 7105a the standing 7054 grain 7054, As his arm 2220 harvests 7114b the ears 7641, Or it will be like one gleaning 3950 ears 7641 of grain 7641 In the valley 6010 of Rephaim 7497.

 17:6 Yet gleanings 5955 will be left 7604 in it like the shaking 5363 of an olive 2132 tree 2132, Two 8147 [or] three 7969 olives 1620 on the topmost 7218 534 bough 534, Four 702 [or] five 2568 on the branches 5585 of a fruitful 6509 tree 6509, Declares 5002 the LORD 3068, the God 430 of Israel 3478.

 17:7 In that day 3117 man 120 will have 8159 regard 8159 for his Maker 6213a And his eyes 5869 will look 7200 to the Holy 6918 One 6918 of Israel 3478.

 17:8 He will not have 8159 regard 8159 for the altars 4196, the work 4639 of his hands 3027, Nor 3808 will he look 7200 to that which 834 his fingers 676 have made 6213a, Even the Asherim 842 and incense 2553 stands 2553.

 17:9 In that day 3117 their strong 4581 cities 5892b will be like forsaken 5805 places 5805 in the forest 2793, Or like branches 534 which 834 they abandoned 5800a before 4480 6440 the sons 1121 of Israel 3478; And the land will be a desolation 8077.

 17:10 For you have forgotten 7911 the God 430 of your salvation 3468 And have not remembered 2142 the rock 6697 of your refuge 4581. Therefore 5921 3651 you plant 5193 delightful 5282 plants 5194 And set 2232 them with vine 2156 slips 2156 of a strange 2114a [god].

 17:11 In the day 3117 that you plant 5194 [it] you carefully 5473 fence 5473 [it] in, And in the morning 1242 you bring 6524a your seed 2233 to blossom 6524a; [But] the harvest 7105a will [be] a heap 5067a In a day 3117 of sickliness 2470a and incurable 605 pain 3511.

 17:12 ¶ Alas 1945, the uproar 1995 of many 7227a peoples 5971a Who roar 1993 like the roaring 1993 of the seas 3220, And the rumbling 7588 of nations 3816 Who rush 7582 on like the rumbling 7588 of mighty 3524 waters 4325!

 17:13 The nations 3816 rumble 7582 on like the rumbling 7588 of many 7227a waters 4325, But He will rebuke 1605 them and they will flee 5127 far 4801 away 4801, And be chased 7291 like chaff 4671b in the mountains 2022 before 6440 the wind 7307, Or like whirling 1534 dust 1534 before 6440 a gale 5492a.

 17:14 At evening 6153 time 6256, behold 2009, [there is] terror 1091! Before 2962 morning 1242 they are no 369 more 369. Such 2088 [will be] the portion 2506 of those who plunder 962 us And the lot 1486 of those who pillage 962 us.
