"Therefore I am fullª of¹ the furyª of the LORD;ª I am wearyª° with holding¹ in:²° I will pour it outª° upon¹ the childrenª abroad,ª and upon¹ the assemblyª of young menª together:ª for¹ even¹ the husbandª with¹ the wifeª shall be taken,ª° the agedª with¹ [him that is] fullª° of days.ª" {Jer 6:11} + "And I will fanª° them with a fanª in the gatesª of the land;ª I will bereaveª° [them] of children, I will destroyª°¹ my people,ª [since] they returnª° not¹ from their ways.ª¹" {Jer 15:7} + "Therefore he broughtª° upon¹ them¹ the kingª of the Chaldees,ª who slewª° their young menª with the swordª in the houseª of their sanctuary,ª and had no compassionª°¹ upon¹ young manª or maiden,ª old man,ª or him that stooped for age:ª he gaveª° [them] all¹ into his hand.ª" {2Ch 36:17} + "And to the othersª he saidª° in mine hearing,ª Goª° ye afterª him through the city,ª and smite:ª° let not¹ your eyeª spare,ª° neither¹ have ye pity:ª° ... Slayª° utterlyª oldª [and] young,ª both maids,ª and little children,ª and women:ª but come not nearª°¹¹ any¹ manª upon¹ whom¹ [is] the mark;ª and beginª° at my sanctuary.ª¹ Then they beganª° at the ancientª men²¹ which¹ [were] beforeª the house.ª" {Ezk 9:5-6} + "Thou¹ therefore, sonª of man,ª prophesy,ª° and smite²° [thine] handsª together,ªª°¹ and let the swordª be doubledª° the third² time,¹ the swordª of the slain:ª it¹ [is] the swordª of the greatª [men that are] slain,ª which entereth into their privy chambers.ª° ... I have setª° the pointª of the swordª against¹ all¹ their gates,ª that¹ [their] heartª may faint,ª° and [their] ruinsª be multiplied:ª° ah!ª [it is] made²° bright,ª¹ [it is] wrapped upª for the slaughter.ª" {Ezk 21:14-15} + "And a man's uncleª shall take him up,ª° and he that burnethª° him, to bring outª° the bonesª out of¹ the house,ª and shall sayª° unto him that¹ [is] by the sidesª of the house,ª [Is there] yet¹ [any] with¹ thee? and he shall say,ª° No.ª Then shall he say,ª° Hold thy tongue:ª° for¹ we may not¹ make mentionª° of the nameª of the LORD.ª ... For,¹ behold,¹ the LORDª commandeth,ª° and he will smiteª° the greatª houseª with breaches,ª and the littleª houseª with clefts.ª" {Ams 6:10-11} |
