ABP_Strongs(i)
  1 G3588 The G3705 vision G3588 of the G2048 wilderness. G5613 As G2616.6 a blast G1223 [2through G2048 3a wilderness G1330 1might go], G1537 from out of G2048 the wilderness G2064 coming G1537 from G1093 land;
  2 G5398 so a fearful G3588   G3705 [3vision G2532 1and G4642 2hard] G312 was announced G1473 to me; G3588 the G114 one disregarding G114 disregards; G3588 the G457.1 one acting lawlessly G457.1 acts lawlessly. G1909 [3 are upon G1473 4me G3588 1The G* 2Elamites], G2532 and G3588 the G4244.1 ambassadors G3588 of the G* Persians G1909 [2against G1473 3me G2064 1come]. G3568 Now G4727 I shall moan G2532 and G3870 shall comfort G1683 myself.
  3 G1223 Because of G3778 this G1705 [2was filled G3588   G3751 1my loin] G1473   G1589.3 with feebleness, G2532 and G5604 pangs G2983 took G1473 me G5613 as G3588 the G5088 one giving birth. G91 I transgressed G3588   G3361 to not G191 hear, G4704 I hurried G3588   G3361 to not G991 see.
  4 G3588   G2588 My heart G1473   G4105 wanders, G2532 and G3588   G458 lawlessness G1473 immerses me; G907   G3588   G5590 my soul G1473   G2186 attends G1519 to G5401 fear.
  5 G2090 Prepare G3588 the G5132 table! G2068 Eat! G4095 Drink! G450 Rising up G3588 are the G758 rulers. G385 Pull up G2375 shields!
  6 G3754 For G3779 thus G2036 said G2962 the lord G4314 to G1473 me, G897.2 Proceeding, G4572 [2yourself G2476 1stand] G4649 as watchman, G2532 and G3739 whatever G302   G1492 you should behold G312 announce!
  7 G2532 And G1492 I saw G306.3 riders -- G2460 [2horsemen G1417 1two], G306.3 a rider G3688 of a donkey, G2532 and G306.3 a rider G2574 of a camel. G200.1 Listen G200.2 [2hearing G4183 1with great]!
  8 G2532 And G2564 call G* Uriah G1519 to G3588 the G4648.1 watchtower G2962 of the lord! G2532 And G2036 he said, G2476 I stood G1275 always G2250 by day, G2532 and G1909 over G3588 the G3925 camp G2476 I stood G3650 all G3588 the G3571 night.
  9 G2532 And G2400 behold, G1473 he G2064 comes -- G306.3 a rider G3586.4 of a double chariot; G2532 and G611 responding G2036 he said, G4098 Has fallen, G4098 has fallen, G* Babylon G2532 and G3956 all G3588   G21.1 her statues; G1473   G2532 and G3588   G5499 her handmade idols G1473   G4937 were broken G1519 unto G3588 the G1093 ground.
  10 G191 Hear! G3588 O ones G2641 being left behind, G2532 and, G3588 O ones G3600 grieving. G191 Hear G3739 what G191 I heard G3844 from G2962 the lord G4519 of Hosts! G3588 what the G2316 God G3588   G* of Israel G312 announced G1473 to you.
  11 G3588 The G3705 vision G3588   G* of Edom. G4314 [2to G1473 3me G2564 1He called] G3844 from G3588   G* Seir. G5442 Guard G1874.2 the parapets!
  12 G5442 I guard G4404 in the morning, G2532 and G3588 the G3571 night; G1437 if G2212 you should seek, G2212 seek; G2532 and G3844 [2with G1473 3me G3611 1live]!
  13 G1722 In G3588 the G1409.1 forest G2073 by evening G2837 you shall bed down G1722 in G3588 the G3598 way G* of Dedan;
  14 G1519 for G4877 meeting with G1372 the one thirsting G5204 [2water G5342 1bring]! G3588 O ones G1774 dwelling G1722 in G5561 the place G* of Tema. G740 [2with bread loaves G4876 1Meet] G3588 the ones G5343 fleeing!
  15 G1223 because of G3588 the G4128 multitude G3588 of the G2932.1 ones being slain, G2532 and G1223 because of G3588 the G4128 multitude G3588 of the ones G4105 wandering, G2532 and G1223 because of G3588 the G4128 multitude G3588 of the G3162 swords, G2532 and G1223 because of G3588 the G4128 multitude G3588 of the G5114.1 bows G3588 of the ones G1299.1 being extended, G2532 and G1223 because of G3588 the G4128 multitude G3588 of the G4098 ones fallen G1722 in G3588 the G4171 battle.
  16 G3754 For G3779 thus G2036 [2said G1473 3to me G2962 1 the lord], G2089 Yet G1763 a year, G5613 as G1763 the year G3411 of a hireling, G1587 [4shall fail G3588 1the G1391 2glory G* 3of Kedar].
  17 G2532 And G3588 the G2645 remnant G3588 of the G5114.1 [2bowmen G3588   G2478 1strong] G5207 of the sons G* of Kedar G1510.8.3 will be G3641 few. G1360 For G2962 the lord G3588   G2316 God G* of Israel G2980 spoke.

  4 H3824 My heart H8582 panted [H8804]   H6427 , fearfulness H1204 affrighted [H8765]   H5399 me: the night H2837 of my pleasure H7760 hath he turned [H8804]   H2731 into fear unto me.
  5 H6186 Prepare [H8800]   H7979 the table H6822 , watch [H8800]   H6844 in the watchtower H398 , eat [H8800]   H8354 , drink [H8800]   H6965 : arise [H8798]   H8269 , ye princes H4886 , and anoint [H8798]   H4043 the shield.
  6 H136 For thus hath the Lord H559 said [H8804]   H3212 unto me, Go [H8798]   H5975 , set [H8685]   H6822 a watchman [H8764]   H5046 , let him declare [H8686]   H7200 what he seeth [H8799]  .
  7 H7200 And he saw [H8804]   H7393 a chariot H6776 with a couple H6571 of horsemen H7393 , a chariot H2543 of asses H7393 , and a chariot H1581 of camels H7181 ; and he hearkened [H8689]   H7182 diligently H7227 with much H7182 heed:
  8 H7121 And he cried [H8799]   H738 , A lion H136 : My lord H5975 , I stand [H8802]   H8548 continually H4707 upon the watchtower H3119 in the daytime H5324 , and I am set [H8737]   H4931 in my ward H3915 whole nights:
  9 H935 And, behold, here cometh [H8802]   H7393 a chariot H376 of men H6776 , with a couple H6571 of horsemen H6030 . And he answered [H8799]   H559 and said [H8799]   H894 , Babylon H5307 is fallen [H8804]   H5307 , is fallen [H8804]   H6456 ; and all the graven images H430 of her gods H7665 he hath broken [H8765]   H776 unto the ground.
  10 H4098 O my threshing H1121 , and the corn H1637 of my floor H8085 : that which I have heard [H8804]   H3068 of the LORD H6635 of hosts H430 , the God H3478 of Israel H5046 , have I declared [H8689]   unto you.
  11 H4853 The burden H1746 of Dumah H7121 . He calleth [H8802]   H8165 to me out of Seir H8104 , Watchman [H8802]   H3915 , what of the night H8104 ? Watchman [H8802]   H3915 , what of the night?
  12 H8104 The watchman [H8802]   H559 said [H8804]   H1242 , The morning H857 cometh [H8804]   H3915 , and also the night H1158 : if ye will enquire [H8799]   H1158 , enquire [H8798]   H7725 ye: return [H8798]   H857 , come [H8798]  .
  13 H4853 The burden H6152 upon Arabia H3293 . In the forest H6152 in Arabia H3885 shall ye lodge [H8799]   H736 , O ye travelling companies H1720 of Dedanim.
  14 H3427 The inhabitants [H8802]   H776 of the land H8485 of Tema H857 brought [H8689]   H4325 water H7125 to him [H8800]   H6771 that was thirsty H6923 , they prevented [H8765]   H3899 with their bread H5074 him that fled [H8802]  .
  15 H5074 For they fled [H8804]   H6440 from H2719 the swords H6440 , from H5203 the drawn [H8803]   H2719 sword H6440 , and from H1869 the bent [H8803]   H7198 bow H6440 , and from H3514 the grievousness H4421 of war.
  16 H136 For thus hath the Lord H559 said [H8804]   H8141 unto me, Within a year H8141 , according to the years H7916 of an hireling H3519 , and all the glory H6938 of Kedar H3615 shall fail [H8804]  :
  17 H7605 And the residue H4557 of the number H7198 of archers H1368 , the mighty men H1121 of the children H6938 of Kedar H4591 , shall be diminished [H8799]   H3068 : for the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H1696 hath spoken [H8765]   it .
ERV(i) 1 The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the South sweep through, it cometh from the wilderness, from a terrible land. 2 A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam; besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease. 3 Therefore are my loins filled with anguish; pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail: I am pained so that I cannot hear; I am dismayed so that I cannot see. 4 My heart panteth, horror hath affrighted me: the twilight that I desired hath been turned into trembling unto me. 5 They prepare the table, they set the watch, they eat, they drink: rise up, ye princes, anoint the shield. 6 For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman; let him declare what he seeth: 7 and when he seeth a troop, horsemen in pairs, a troop of asses, a troop of camels, he shall hearken diligently with much heed. 8 And he cried as a lion: O Lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the day-time, and am set in my ward whole nights: 9 and, behold, here cometh a troop of men, horsemen in pairs. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground. 10 O thou my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. 11 The burden of Dumah. One calleth unto me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night? 12 The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will inquire, inquire ye: turn ye, come. 13 The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanites. 14 Unto him that was thirsty they brought water; the inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitives with their bread. 15 For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. 16 For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail: 17 and the residue of the number of the archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be few: for the LORD, the God of Israel, hath spoken it.
