  1 H7197 Gather yourselves together [H8703]   H7197 , yea, gather together [H8798]   H1471 , O nation H3700 not desired [H8737]  ;
  2 H2706 Before the decree H3205 bring forth [H8800]   H3117 , before the day H5674 pass [H8804]   H4671 as the chaff H3808 , before H2740 the fierce H639 anger H3068 of the LORD H935 come [H8799]   H3117 upon you, before the day H3068 of the LORD'S H639 anger H935 come [H8799]   upon you.
  3 H1245 Seek [H8761]   H3068 ye the LORD H6035 , all ye meek H776 of the earth H6466 , which have wrought [H8804]   H4941 his judgment H1245 ; seek [H8761]   H6664 righteousness H1245 , seek [H8761]   H6038 meekness H194 : it may be H5641 ye shall be hid [H8735]   H3117 in the day H3068 of the LORD'S H639 anger.
  4 H5804 For Gaza H5800 shall be forsaken [H8803]   H831 , and Ashkelon H8077 a desolation H1644 : they shall drive out [H8762]   H795 Ashdod H6672 at the noon day H6138 , and Ekron H6131 shall be rooted up [H8735]  .
  5 H1945 Woe H3427 unto the inhabitants [H8802]   H3220 of the sea H2256 coast H1471 , the nation H3774 of the Cherethites H1697 ! the word H3068 of the LORD H3667 is against you; O Canaan H776 , the land H6430 of the Philistines H6 , I will even destroy [H8689]   H3427 thee, that there shall be no inhabitant [H8802]  .
  6 H3220 And the sea H2256 coast H5116 shall be dwellings H3741 and cottages H7462 for shepherds [H8802]   H1448 , and folds H6629 for flocks.
  7 H2256 And the coast H7611 shall be for the remnant H1004 of the house H3063 of Judah H7462 ; they shall feed [H8799]   H1004 thereupon: in the houses H831 of Ashkelon H7257 shall they lie down [H8799]   H6153 in the evening H3068 : for the LORD H430 their God H6485 shall visit [H8799]   H7725 them, and turn away [H8804]   H7622 their captivity [H8675]   H7622  .
  8 H8085 I have heard [H8804]   H2781 the reproach H4124 of Moab H1421 , and the revilings H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H2778 , whereby they have reproached [H8765]   H5971 my people H1431 , and magnified [H8686]   H1366 themselves against their border.
  9 H2416 Therefore as I live H5002 , saith [H8803]   H3068 the LORD H6635 of hosts H430 , the God H3478 of Israel H4124 , Surely Moab H5467 shall be as Sodom H1121 , and the children H5983 of Ammon H6017 as Gomorrah H4476 , even the breeding H2738 of nettles H4379 , and saltpits H4417   H5704 , and a perpetual H5769   H8077 desolation H7611 : the residue H5971 of my people H962 shall spoil [H8799]   H3499 them, and the remnant H1471 of my people H5157 shall possess [H8799]   them.
  10 H1347 This shall they have for their pride H2778 , because they have reproached [H8765]   H1431 and magnified [H8686]   H5971 themselves against the people H3068 of the LORD H6635 of hosts.
  11 H3068 The LORD H3372 will be terrible [H8737]   H7329 unto them: for he will famish [H8804]   H430 all the gods H776 of the earth H7812 ; and men shall worship [H8691]   H376 him, every one H4725 from his place H339 , even all the isles H1471 of the heathen.
  12 H3569 Ye Ethiopians H1992 also, ye H2491 shall be slain H2719 by my sword.
  13 H5186 And he will stretch out [H8799]   H3027 his hand H6828 against the north H6 , and destroy [H8762]   H804 Assyria H7760 ; and will make [H8799]   H5210 Nineveh H8077 a desolation H6723 , and dry H4057 like a wilderness.
  14 H5739 And flocks H7257 shall lie down [H8804]   H8432 in the midst H2416 of her, all the beasts H1471 of the nations H6893 : both the cormorant H7090 and the bittern H3885 shall lodge [H8799]   H3730 in the upper lintels H6963 of it; their voice H7891 shall sing [H8787]   H2474 in the windows H2721 ; desolation H5592 shall be in the thresholds H6168 : for he shall uncover [H8765]   H731 the cedar work.
  15 H5947 This is the rejoicing H5892 city H3427 that dwelt [H8802]   H983 carelessly H559 , that said [H8802]   H3824 in her heart H657 , I am, and there is none beside H8047 me: how is she become a desolation H2416 , a place for beasts H4769 to lie down in H5674 ! every one that passeth by [H8802]   H8319 her shall hiss [H8799]   H5128 , and wag [H8686]   H3027 his hand.
KJV(i) 1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired; 2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD's anger come upon you. 3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD's anger. 4 For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up. 5 Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the word of the LORD is against you; O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant. 6 And the sea coast shall be dwellings and cottages for shepherds, and folds for flocks. 7 And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they shall feed thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening: for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity. 8 I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, whereby they have reproached my people, and magnified themselves against their border. 9 Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them. 10 This shall they have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified themselves against the people of the LORD of hosts. 11 The LORD will be terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and men shall worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the heathen. 12 Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by my sword. 13 And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like a wilderness. 14 And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds; for he shall uncover the cedar work. 15 This is the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none beside me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand.
