The best of them is as a brier; the most upright is [worse] than a thorn hedge: the day of thy watchmen, even thy visitation, is come; now shall be their perplexity.
The bestª
of them [is] as a brier:ª
the most uprightª
[is sharper] than a thorn hedge:ª¹
the dayª
of thy watchmenª°
[and] thy visitationª
cometh;ª°
now¹
shall be¹
their perplexity.ª
The bestª
of them is as a brier:ª
the most vprightª
[is sharper] then a thorne hedge:ª¹
the dayª
of thy watchmen,ª°
[and] thy visitationª
commeth;ª°
now¹
shall be¹
their perplexitie.ª
therefore I will take away their goods as a devouring moth, and as one who acts by a [rigid] rule in a day of visitation. Woe, woe, thy times of vengeance are come; now shall be their lamentations.
The bestª
of them [is] as a brier:ª
the most uprightª
[is sharper] than a thorn hedge:ª¹
the dayª
of thy watchmenª°
[and] thy visitationª
cometh;ª°
now¹
shall be¹
their perplexity.ª
