²⁶ And the light of the white moonshine comes to be as the light of the warm sunshine, and the light of the warm sunshine will become sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day when Yahweh will bind up the break of His people, and the transfixed of their smiting will He heal."

¹ Behold! For justice, a king shall reign, and chiefs for judgment shall control." ² And a man becomes as a hiding place from the wind, and a concealment from the storm, as rillets of water in an arid place, as the shadow of a massive crag in a faint-making desert land."

¹⁵ He who goes in righteousness, and speaks equities, who rejects the gain of extortions, who shakes his palms from upholding a bribe, who contracts his ear from hearkening to blood plans, and restrains his eyes from seeing evil--" ¹⁶ he shall tabernacle on the heights, fastnesses of crags are his impregnable retreat. His bread shall be bestowed. His water shall be assured." ¹⁷ The king in his loveliness your eyes shall perceive. They shall see a land afar off. ¹⁸ Your heart shall soliloquize concerning past dread. "Where is the numberer? Where is the weigher? Where is the numberer of those growing up?

²⁶ Have you not heard from afar that it was made by Me? From days aforetime also, I formed it. Now will I bring it, and coming are you to cause tumult, to besieged mounds, defended cities."

⁸ And saying is Hezekiah to Isaiah, "Good is the word of Yahweh which you speak.And saying is he, "Is it not, since there is coming to be welfare and truth in my days?

²¹ Yahweh Elohim desires, on account of His righteousness, both to magnify the law, and ennoble it."

¹ And now, thus says Yahweh Elohim, your creator, Jacob, and your Former, Israel:"You must not fear, for I redeemed you, I called you by your name. You are mine."

²¹ This people I have formed for Myself, and they shall relate My praise."

²² For behold! I wipe out as a dense haze, your transgressions, and as a cloud, your sins. Return to Me, for I redeemed you."

³ And I give to you treasures of darkness. And those buried in concealment will I open for you, that you may know that I, Yahweh Elohim, calling you by your name, am the Elohim of Israel."

¹⁷ Israel is saved by Yahweh, with a salvation eonian. They shall not be ashamed nor confounded for future eons."

²² Face to Me and be saved, all the limits of the earth, for I am El, and there is none else."

²⁴ Yea, in Yahweh,He says to me, "is righteousness and strength. Unto Him shall come all ashamed, who are hot against Him." ²⁵ In Yahweh shall they be just, and in Elohim all the seed of Israel shall boast."

⁶ You have heard! You perceive it all! Yet you, are you not telling? I announce to you new things henceforth, and things preserved, yet you do not know them."

¹⁷ Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, "I, Yahweh, your Elohim, will teach you to benefit, causing you to tread in the way in which you shall go." ¹⁸ O that you attended to My instructions! Then your welfare will become as a stream, and your righteousness as billows of the sea."

³ For comforted by Yahweh is Zion, He comforts all her deserted ones. And He will constitute her wilderness as Eden, and her gorge as the garden of Yahweh. Elation and rejoicing shall be found in her, acclamation and the sound of melody."

¹¹ And the ransomed of Yahweh shall return, and they come to Zion with jubilation, and rejoicing eonian is on their head. Elation and rejoicing shall overtake them, and affliction shall flee, and grief and sighing."

⁹ Crash! Jubilate together, deserted places of Jerusalem, for Yahweh is comforting His people, and He has redeemed Jerusalem."

² And He is coming up as a layer-plant before Him, and as a root sprout from earth that is arid. No shape has He nor honor when we shall see Him, and no appearance nor loveliness that we will covet Him."

¹⁰ yet Yahweh desires to crush Him, and He causes Him to be wounded. Should you place His soul for a guilt approach, He shall see a seed. He shall lengthen His days, and the desire of Yahweh shall prosper in His hand." ¹¹ From the toil of His soul shall He see light. And He shall be satisfied by His knowledge. My righteous Servant shall justify many, and with their depravities shall He be burdened." ¹² Therefore I will apportion to Him among many, and to the staunch will He apportion the loot, insomuch that He gives up His soul unto death, and with transgressors was counted; and He bore the sin of many, and for transgressors is making intercession."

⁸ In effervescent wrath I concealed My face a moment from you, yet with kindness eonian have I compassion on you,says your Redeemer, Yahweh." ⁹ For this is the waters of Noah to Me. As I swore off from passing the waters of Noah again over the earth, so I swore off from wrath over you further and from rebuking you." ¹⁰ For the mountains shall remove, and the hills shall slip, yet My kindness from you shall not remove, and the covenant of My welfare shall not slip, says your Compassionate One, Yahweh."

¹³ And all your sons are taught by Yahweh, and much is the welfare of your sons."

³ Stretch out your ear and go to Me; hear Me, and your soul shall live in good. And I will contract with you a covenant eonian, the kindnesses of David that are faithful."

⁶ Inquire for Yahweh while He is to be found; call Him while He comes to be near. ⁷ Forsake shall the wicked one his way, and the lawless man his devices, and he shall return to Yahweh, and He will have compassion on him, and to our Elohim, for he will increasingly pardon your sins."

⁷ Forsake shall the wicked one his way, and the lawless man his devices, and he shall return to Yahweh, and He will have compassion on him, and to our Elohim, for he will increasingly pardon your sins."

⁷ I bring them also to My holy mountain, and I make them rejoice in My house of prayer. Their ascent approaches and their sacrifices shall ascend for acceptance on My altar, for My house a house of prayer shall be called, for all the peoples,

⁸ Then your light shall be rent as the dawn, and your longevity with haste shall sprout. And there goes before you your righteousness. And the glory of Yahweh shall gather about you."

⁵ Then you shall see and beam. And awed and wide will be your heart, for turned to you shall be the throng of the sea. The estate of nations shall come to you."

⁶ And you, priests of Yahweh shall be called, "Ministers of our Elohim,to you shall be said. The estate of nations shall you eat, and with their glory you shall change yourselves."

² And the nations see your righteousness, and all the kings your glory, and you are called by a new name, which the mouth of Yahweh will specify." ³ And you become a crown of beauty in the hand of Yahweh, and a royal turban in the palm of your Elohim."

⁷ And you must not give Him stillness till He shall make ready, and till He shall establish, and till He shall constitute Jerusalem a praise in the earth."

¹² And they call them, "People of the Holy One,Redeemed of Yahweh.And you are called, "City inquired for, not forsaken."

⁷ And no one is calling on Your name, rousing himself to hold fast to You, for You conceal Your face from us, and You are dissolving us by means of our depravities."

¹⁰ And Sharon shall become a homestead for a flock, and the vale of Achar for reclining a herd, for My people who inquire of Me."

²⁴ And it comes, ere they are calling, then I will answer; they are still speaking when I will hearken."

¹² For thus says Yahweh, "Behold Me stretching out welfare to her, as a stream, and, as a watercourse overflowing, the glory of the nations. And suck do you. On the side are you being borne, and on the knees are you being dandled."

²¹ And moreover, from them, to Me will I take for priests and for Levites,says Yahweh."

¹⁷ At that time they cry to Jerusalem, `O throne of Yahweh,' And gathered unto her has been all the nations, For the name of Yahweh, to Jerusalem, Nor do they go any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart."

³⁴ And I have caused to cease from cities of Judah, And from streets of Jerusalem, The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, For the land does become a desolation!"

¹⁶ Not like these [is] the Portion of Jacob, For framer of all things [is] He, And Israel [is] the rod of His inheritance, Yahweh of Hosts [is] His name."

¹¹ For, as the girdle cleaves unto the loins of a man, So I caused to cleave unto Me The whole house of Israel, And the whole house of Judah, an affirmation of Yahweh, To be to Me for a people, and for a name, And for praise, and for beauty, And they have not hearkened."

⁹ For thus said Yahweh of Hosts, Elohim of Israel:Lo, I am causing to cease from this place, Before your eyes, and in your days, The voice of joy, and the voice of rejoicing, The voice of bridegroom and voice of bride."

¹⁴ Heal me, O Yahweh, and I am healed, Save me, and I am saved, for my praise [are] You."

²⁶ And they have come in from cities of Judah, And from suburbs of Jerusalem, And from the land of Benjamin, And from the low country, And from the hill-country, and from the south, Bringing in burnt-offering, and sacrifice, And present, and frankincense, And bringing praise [to] the house of Yahweh."

¹⁷ As an east wind I scatter them before an enemy, The neck, and not the face, I show them, In the day of their calamity.'"

⁴ Thus said Yahweh, Elohim of Israel:Lo, I am turning round the weapons of battle That [are] in your hand, With which you do fight the king of Babylon, And the Chaldeans, who are laying siege against you, At the outside of the wall, And I have gathered them into the midst of this city, ⁵ And I--I have fought against you, With a stretched-out hand, and with a strong arm, And in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath, ⁶ And I have smitten the inhabitants of this city, Both man and beast, By a great pestilence do they die." ⁷ And after this--an affirmation of Yahweh, I give Zedekiah king of Judah, And his servants, and the people, And those left in this city, From the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, Into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of their enemies, And into the hand of those seeking their life, And he has smitten them by the mouth of the sword, He has no pity on them, Nor does he spare, nor has he mercy."

¹⁰ For I have set My face against this city for evil, And not for good--an affirmation of Yahweh. Into the hand of the king of Babylon it is given, And he has burned it with fire."

³ And I do gather the remnant of My flock Out of all the lands whither I drove them, And have brought them back unto their fold, And they have been fruitful, and multiplied."

⁵ Lo, days are coming--an affirmation of Yahweh, And I have raised to David a righteous shoot, And a king has reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth."

⁵ Lo, days are coming--an affirmation of Yahweh, And I have raised to David a righteous shoot, And a king has reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth." ⁶ In his days is Judah saved, and Israel dwells confidently, And this his name that Yahweh proclaims him, `Our Righteousness.'"

⁶ In his days is Judah saved, and Israel dwells confidently, And this his name that Yahweh proclaims him, `Our Righteousness.'"

⁶ And I have set Mine eyes on them for good, And have brought them back to this land, And built them up, and I throw not down, And have planted them, and pluck not up."

¹⁰ And I have destroyed from them the voice of rejoicing, and the voice of joy, voice of bridegroom and voice of bride, noise of millstones, and the light of lamps."

⁶ Then I have given up this house as Shiloh, and this city I give up for a reviling to all nations of the earth.'"

¹ And these [are] words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the remnant of the elders of the removal, and unto the priests, and unto the prophets, and unto all the people--whom Nebuchadnezzar removed from Jerusalem to Babylon,

¹⁰ `For thus said Yahweh, Surely at the fulness of Babylon--seventy years--I inspect you, and have established towards you My good word, to bring you back unto this place."

¹² `And you have called Me, and have gone, and have prayed unto Me, and I have hearkened unto you,

¹⁴ And I have been found of you--an affirmation of Yahweh; and I have turned back [to] your captivity, and have gathered you out of all the nations, and out of all the places whither I have driven you--an affirmation of Yahweh--and I have brought you back unto the place whence I removed you."

³ For, lo, days are coming--an affirmation of Yahweh--and I have turned back [to] the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, said Yahweh, and I have caused them to turn back unto the land that I gave to their fathers, and they do possess it.'"

¹² For thus said Yahweh:Incurable is your breach, grievous your stroke, ¹³ There is none judging your cause to bind up, Healing medicines there are none for you." ¹⁴ all loving you have forgotten you, You they do not seek, For with the stroke of an enemy I smote you, The chastisement of a fierce one, Because of the abundance of your iniquity, Mighty have been your sins!" ¹⁵ What! --you cry concerning your breach! Incurable [is] your pain, Because of the abundance of your iniquity, Mighty have been your sins! I have done these to you." ¹⁶ Therefore all consuming you are consumed, And all your adversaries--all of them--Into captivity do go, And your spoilers have been for a spoil, And all your plunderers I give up to plunder." ¹⁷ For I increase health to you, And from your strokes I do heal you, An affirmation of Yahweh, For `Outcast' they have called to you, `Zion it [is], there is none seeking for her.'"

¹⁷ For I increase health to you, And from your strokes I do heal you, An affirmation of Yahweh, For `Outcast' they have called to you, `Zion it [is], there is none seeking for her.'" ¹⁸ Thus said Yahweh:Lo, I turn back [to] the captivity of the tents of Jacob, And his dwelling places I pity, And the city has been built on its heap, And the palace according to its ordinance remains."

²⁰ And his sons have been as aforetime, And his company before Me is established, And I have seen after all his oppressors."

⁴ Again do I build you, And you have been built, O virgin of Israel, Again you put on your tabrets, And have gone out in the chorus of the playful."

¹² And they have come in, And have sung in the high place of Zion, And flowed unto the goodness of Yahweh, For wheat, and for new wine, and for oil, And for the young of the flock and herd, And their soul has been as a watered garden, And they add not to grieve any more." ¹³ Then rejoice does a virgin in a chorus, Both young men and old men--together, And I have turned their mourning to joy, And have comforted them, And gladdened them above their sorrow, ¹⁴ And satisfied the soul of the priests [with] fatness, And My people with My goodness are satisfied, An affirmation of Yahweh."

²⁰ A precious son is Ephraim to Me? A child of delights? For since My speaking against him, I do thoroughly remember him still, Therefore have My bowels been moved for him, I do greatly love him, An affirmation of Yahweh."

²⁴ And dwelt in Judah have husbandmen, and in all its cities together, And they have journeyed in order."

²⁷ Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Yahweh, And I have sown the house of Israel, And the house of Judah, With seed of man, and seed of beast." ²⁸ And it has been, as I watched over them to pluck up, And to break down, and to throw down, And to destroy, and to afflict; So do I watch over them to build, and to plant, An affirmation of Yahweh."

³¹ Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Yahweh, And I have made with the house of Israel And with the house of Judah a new covenant, ³² Not like the covenant that I made with their fathers, In the day of My laying hold on their hand, To bring them out of the land of Egypt, In that they made void My covenant, And I ruled over them--an affirmation of Yahweh." ³³ For this [is] the covenant that I make, With the house of Israel, after those days, An affirmation of Yahweh, I have given My law in their inward part, And on their heart I do write it, And I have been to them for Elohim, And they are to me for a people." ³⁴ And they do not teach any more Each his neighbor, and each his brother, Saying, Know you Yahweh, For they all know Me, from their least unto their greatest, An affirmation of Yahweh; For I pardon their iniquity, And of their sin I make mention no more."

³⁴ And they do not teach any more Each his neighbor, and each his brother, Saying, Know you Yahweh, For they all know Me, from their least unto their greatest, An affirmation of Yahweh; For I pardon their iniquity, And of their sin I make mention no more." ³⁵ Thus said Yahweh, Who is giving the sun for a light by day, The statutes of moon and stars for a light by night, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, Yahweh of Hosts [is] His name:"

³⁵ Thus said Yahweh, Who is giving the sun for a light by day, The statutes of moon and stars for a light by night, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, Yahweh of Hosts [is] His name:" ³⁶ If these statutes depart from before Me, An affirmation of Yahweh, Even the seed of Israel does cease From being a nation before Me all the days."

³⁶ If these statutes depart from before Me, An affirmation of Yahweh, Even the seed of Israel does cease From being a nation before Me all the days." ³⁷ Thus said Yahweh:If the heavens above be measured, And the foundations of earth below searched, Even I kick against all the seed of Israel, For all that they have done, An affirmation of Yahweh."

³⁷ Thus said Yahweh:If the heavens above be measured, And the foundations of earth below searched, Even I kick against all the seed of Israel, For all that they have done, An affirmation of Yahweh."

² And then the forces of the king of Babylon are laying siege against Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet has been shut up in the court of the prison that [is] in the house of the king of Judah, ³ Where Zedekiah king of Judah has shut him up, saying, `Wherefore are you prophesying, saying, Thus said Yahweh, Lo, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he has captured it;"

⁵ And [to] Babylon he leads Zedekiah, and there he is till My inspecting him, --an affirmation of Yahweh--because you fight with the Chaldeans, you do not prosper.'"

⁸ And Hanameel, my uncle's son, comes in unto me, according to the word of Yahweh, unto the court of the prison, and said unto me, `Buy, I pray you, my field that [is] in Anathoth, that [is] in the land of Benjamin, for your [is] the right of possession, and your of redemption--buy for you.' And I know that it [is] the word of Yahweh,

¹⁸ Doing kindness to thousands, and recompensing iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their sons after them; El, the great, the mighty, Yahweh of Hosts [is] His name,

²⁴ `Lo, the mounts--they have come in to the city to capture it, and the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it, because of the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence; and that which You have spoken has come to pass, and lo, You are seeing;"

³⁶ `And now, therefore, thus said Yahweh, Elohim of Israel, concerning this city, of which you are saying, It has been given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, ³⁷ Lo, I am gathering them out of all the lands whither I have driven them in Mine anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath, and I have brought them back unto this place, and have caused them to dwell confidently;" ³⁸ and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for Elohim;" ³⁹ and I have given to them one heart, and one way, to fear Me all the days, for good to them, and to their sons after them:" ⁴⁰ and I have made for them a covenant eonian, in that I turn not back from after them for My doing them good, and My fear I put in their heart, so as not to turn aside from me;" ⁴¹ and I have rejoiced over them to do them good, and have planted them in this land in truth, with all my heart, and with all My soul."

⁴³ and bought has been the field in this land of which you are saying, A desolation it [is], without man and beast, it has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans."

⁴³ and bought has been the field in this land of which you are saying, A desolation it [is], without man and beast, it has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans." ⁴⁴ Fields with money they buy, so as to write in a book, and to seal, and to cause witnesses to testify, in the land of Benjamin, and in suburbs of Jerusalem, and in cities of Judah, and in cities of the hill-country, and in cities of the low country, and in cities of the south, for I turn back their captivity--an affirmation of Yahweh.'"

⁴⁴ Fields with money they buy, so as to write in a book, and to seal, and to cause witnesses to testify, in the land of Benjamin, and in suburbs of Jerusalem, and in cities of Judah, and in cities of the hill-country, and in cities of the low country, and in cities of the south, for I turn back their captivity--an affirmation of Yahweh.'"

⁷ And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first,

⁷ And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first, ⁸ And cleansed them from all their iniquity, That they have sinned against Me, And I have pardoned all their iniquities, That they have sinned against Me, And that they transgressed against Me." ⁹ And it has been to Me for a name of joy, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing to it." ¹⁰ Thus said Yahweh:Again heard in this place of which you are saying, Waste it [is], without man and without beast, In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, That are desolated, without man, And without inhabitant, and without beast, ¹¹ Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank Yahweh of Hosts, for Yahweh [is] good, For His kindness [is] to the eon, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Yahweh, For I turn back the captivity of the land, As at the first, said Yahweh."

¹¹ Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank Yahweh of Hosts, for Yahweh [is] good, For His kindness [is] to the eon, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Yahweh, For I turn back the captivity of the land, As at the first, said Yahweh."

¹⁸ And to the priests--the Levites, Not cut off from before Me is one, Causing a burnt-offering to ascend, And perfuming a present, and making sacrifice--all the days.'"

²⁰ `Thus said Yahweh:If you do break My covenant of the day, And My covenant of the night, So that they are not daily and nightly in their season, ²¹ Also My covenant is broken with David My servant, So that he has not a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the priests, My ministers." ²² As the host of the heavens is not numbered, Nor the sand of the sea measured, So I multiply the seed of David My servant, And the Levites My ministers.'"

²⁵ Thus said Yahweh:If My covenant [is] not daily and nightly, The statutes of heaven and earth I have not appointed--" ²⁶ Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back [to] their captivity, and have pitied them.'"

²⁶ Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back [to] their captivity, and have pitied them.'"

¹⁹ therefore, thus said Yahweh of Hosts, Elohim of Israel, Of Jonadab son of Rechab one standing before me is not cut off all the days.'"

²⁹ and unto Jehoiakim king of Judah you do say:Thus said Yahweh, You have burnt this roll, saying, Wherefore have you written on it, saying, The king of Babylon surely comes in, and has destroyed this land, and caused to cease from it man and beast?

⁹ `Thus said Yahweh:Lift not up your souls saying, The Chaldeans surely go from off us, for they do not go;" ¹⁰ for though you had smitten all the force of the Chaldeans who are fighting with you, and there were left of them wounded men--each in his tent--they rise, and have burnt this city with fire.'"

²¹ And the king Zedekiah commands, and they commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, also to give to him a cake of bread daily from the bakers' street, till the consumption of all the bread of the city, and Jeremiah dwells in the court of the prison."

²⁸ and Jeremiah dwells in the court of the prison till the day that Jerusalem has been captured, and he was [there] when Jerusalem was captured."

¹⁰ `If you do certainly dwell in this land, then I have builded you up, and I throw not down; and I have planted you, and I pluck not up; for I have repented concerning the evil that I have done to you."

⁸ by provoking Me to anger by the works of your hands, by making perfume to other elohims in the land of Egypt, whither you are going in to sojourn, so as to cut yourselves off, and so as to your being for a reviling and for a reproach among all nations of the earth?

¹⁹ And I have brought back Israel unto his habitation, And he has fed on Carmel, and on Bashan. And in mount Ephraim, and on Gilead is his soul satisfied." ²⁰ In those days, and at that time, An affirmation of Yahweh, Sought is the iniquity of Israel, and it is not, And the sin of Judah, and it is not found, For I am propitious to those whom I leave!"

²⁰ In those days, and at that time, An affirmation of Yahweh, Sought is the iniquity of Israel, and it is not, And the sin of Judah, and it is not found, For I am propitious to those whom I leave!"

⁶² and have said:Yahweh, You, You have spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that there is none dwelling in it, from man even unto cattle, for it is a desolation eonian."

¹⁵ They slap their palms at you, all who pass your way; They hiss and jerk their head to and fro at the daughter of Jerusalem:Is this the city which they call the consummation of loveliness, the elation of the entire earth? ¹⁶ They open their mouth wide at you, all your enemies; They hiss and gnash their teeth; they say, We have swallowed them up! Yea, this is the day that we expected; we have come upon it and have seen it!"

¹⁵ Go away! unclean! they call out to them; go away! go away! do not touch! Because they wander forth and rove about, men say among the nations:They shall not continue to sojourn here."

² and have placed against it a siege, and builded against it a fortification, and poured out against it a mount, and placed against it camps, yea, set you against it battering-rams round about."

²² Thus said the Lord Yahweh:I have taken of the foliage of the high cedar, And I have set [it], From the top of its tender shoots a tender one I crop, And I--I have planted [it] on a mountain high and lofty." ²³ In a mountain--the high place of Israel, I plant it, And it has borne boughs, and yielded fruit, And become a goodly cedar, And dwelt under it have all birds of every wing, In the shade of its thin shoots they dwell."

²² At his right has been the divination--Jerusalem, To place battering-rams, To open the mouth with slaughter, To lift up a voice with shouting, To place battering-rams against the gates, To pour out a mount, to build a fortification."

³ and you have said to the sons of Ammon:Hear you a word of the Lord Yahweh:Thus said the Lord Yahweh:Because of your saying, Aha, to My sanctuary, Because it has been polluted, And unto the ground of Israel, Because it has been desolate, And unto the house of Judah, Because they have gone into a removal:"

² Because that Tyre has said of Jerusalem:Aha, she has been broken, the doors of the peoples, She has turned round unto me, I am filled--she has been laid waste,

⁸ Your daughters in the field by sword he slays, And he has made against you a fort, And has poured out against you a mount, And has raised against you a buckler."

²⁶ And they have dwelt on it confidently, And builded houses, and planted vineyards, And dwelt confidently--in My doing judgments, On all those despising them round about, And they have known that I, Yahweh, [am] their Elohim!'"

¹² As a shepherd's searching of his drove, In the day of his being in the midst of his scattered flock, so I do seek My flock, And have delivered them out of all places, Whither they have been scattered, In a day of cloud and thick darkness." ¹³ And brought them out from the peoples, And have gathered them from the lands, And brought them unto their own ground, And have fed them on mountains of Israel, By streams, and by all dwellings of the land." ¹⁴ With good pasture I do feed them, And on mountains of the high place of Israel is their habitation, There do they lie down in a good habitation, And fat pastures they enjoy on mountains of Israel." ¹⁵ I feed My flock, and cause them to lie down, An affirmation of the Lord Yahweh."

²³ And have raised up over them one shepherd, And he has fed them--my servant David, He does feed them, and he is their shepherd, ²⁴ And I, Yahweh, I am their Elohim, And My servant David prince in their midst, I, Yahweh, have spoken." ²⁵ And I have made for them a covenant of peace, And caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, And they have dwelt in a wilderness confidently, And they have slept in forests."

²⁵ And I have made for them a covenant of peace, And caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, And they have dwelt in a wilderness confidently, And they have slept in forests." ²⁶ And I have given them, and the suburbs of my hill, a blessing, And caused the shower to come down in its season, Showers of blessing they are." ²⁷ And given has the tree of the field its fruit, And the land does give her increase, And they have been on their land confident, And they have known that I [am] Yahweh, In My breaking the bands of their yoke, And I have delivered them from the hand of those laying service on them." ²⁸ And they are no more a prey to nations, And the beast of the earth devours them not, And they have dwelt confidently, And there is none troubling."

¹⁰ Because of your saying:The two nations and the two lands are mine, and we have possessed it, And Yahweh has been there;" ¹¹ Therefore, I live--an affirmation of the Lord Yahweh, And I have done according to your anger, And according to your envy, With which you have wrought, Because of your hatred against them, And I have been known among them when I judge you." ¹² And you have known that I--Yahweh, I have heard all your despisings that you have spoken Against mountains of Israel, saying:A desolation, to us they were given for food." ¹³ And you magnify yourselves against Me with your mouth, And have made abundant against Me your words, I--I have heard." ¹⁴ Thus said the Lord Yahweh:According to the rejoicing of the whole land, A desolation I make of you." ¹⁵ According to your joy at the inheritance of the house of Israel because of desolation, So I do to you--a desolation you are, O mount Seir, and all Edom--all of it, And they have known that I [am] Yahweh!"

² Thus said the Lord Yahweh:Because the enemy said against you, Aha, and the high places of old for a possession have been to us,

⁸ And you, O mountains of Israel, Your branch you give out, and your fruits you bear for My people Israel, For they have drawn near to come." ⁹ For, lo, I [am] for you, and have turned to you, And you have been tilled and sown." ¹⁰ And I have multiplied on you men, All the house of Israel--all of it, And the cities have been inhabited, And the wastes are built." ¹¹ And I have multiplied on you man and beast, And they have multiplied and been fruitful, And I have caused you to dwell according to your former states, And I have done better than at your beginnings, And you have known that I [am] Yahweh."

²⁵ And I have sprinkled over you clean water, And you have been clean; From all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols, I do cleanse you."

³³ Thus said the Lord Yahweh:In the day of My cleansing you from all your iniquities, I have caused the cities to be inhabited, And the wastes have been built,

¹¹ And He said unto me, `Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; lo, they are saying:Dried up have our bones, And perished has our hope, We have been cut off by ourselves."

²² And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no more as two nations, Nor are they divided any more into two kingdoms again."

²⁴ And My servant David [is] king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them." ²⁵ And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son's sons--unto the eon, And David My servant [is] their prince--to the eon." ²⁶ And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant eonian it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst--to the eon." ²⁷ And My tabernacle has been over them, And I have been to them for Elohim, And they have been to Me for a people."

⁸ After many days you are appointed, In the latter end of the years you come in unto a land brought back from sword, [A people] gathered out of many peoples, Upon mountains of Israel, That have been for a perpetual waste, And it from the peoples has been brought out, And dwelt safely have all of them."

²³ And known have the nations that for their iniquity, Removed have the house of Israel, Because they have trespassed against Me, And I do hide My face from them, And give them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fall by sword--all of them." ²⁴ According to their uncleanness, And according to their transgressions, I have done with them, And I do hide My face from them." ²⁵ Therefore, thus said the Lord Yahweh:Now do I bring back the captivity of Jacob, And I have pitied all the house of Israel, And have been zealous for My holy name."

²⁹ And I hide not any more My face from them, In that I have poured out My spirit on the house of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Yahweh!'"

¹⁹ And you have given unto the priests, the Levites, who [are] of the seed of Zadok--who are near unto Me, an affirmation of the Lord Yahweh, to serve Me--a calf from the herd, for a sin-offering." ²⁰ And you have taken of its blood, and have put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of its border, and on the border round about, and have cleansed it, and purified it." ²¹ And you have taken the bullock of the sin-offering, and have burnt it in the appointed place of the house at the outside of the sanctuary." ²² And on the second day you do bring near a kid of the goats, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and they have cleansed the altar, as they cleansed [it] for the bullock." ²³ In your finishing cleansing, you do bring near a calf, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and a ram out of the flock, a perfect one." ²⁴ And you have brought them near before Yahweh, and the priests have cast upon them salt, and have caused them to go up, a burnt-offering to Yahweh." ²⁵ Seven days you do prepare a goat for a sin-offering daily, and a bullock, a son of the herd, and a ram out of the flock, perfect ones, do they prepare." ²⁶ Seven days they purify the altar, and have cleansed it, and filled their hand." ²⁷ And the days are completed, and it has come to pass on the eighth day, and henceforth, the priests prepare on the altar your burnt-offerings and your peace-offerings, and I have accepted you--an affirmation of the Lord Yahweh.'"

⁹ `Thus said the Lord Yahweh:No son of a stranger, uncircumcised of heart, and uncircumcised of flesh, comes in unto My sanctuary, even any son of a stranger, who [is] in the midst of the sons of Israel, ¹⁰ but--the Levites who have gone far off from me, in the wandering of Israel when they went astray from Me after their idols, and they have borne their iniquity." ¹¹ And they have been in My sanctuary ministrants, overseers at the gates of the house, and ministrants at the house; they slay the burnt-offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they stand before them to serve them."

¹⁵ `And the priests, the Levites, sons of Zadok, who have kept the charge of My sanctuary in the wandering of the sons of Israel from off Me, they draw near unto Me to serve Me, and have stood before Me, to bring near to Me fat and blood--an affirmation of the Lord Yahweh:"

⁵ `And of the five and twenty thousand of length, and of the ten thousand of breadth, there is to the Levites, ministrants of the house, for them--for a possession--twenty chambers."

⁴⁴ In their days, that is, of these kings, the Eloah of the heavens will set up a kingdom that for the eons shall not come to harm. His kingdom shall not be left to another people. It will pulverize and terminate all these kingdoms, and it shall be confirmed for the eons."

¹³ Perceiving am I in the visions of the night, and behold, on the clouds of the heavens, One as a son of a mortal is arriving:Unto the Transferrer of Days He reaches, and they bring Him near before Him;" ¹⁴ to Him is granted jurisdiction and esteem and a kingdom, and all the peoples and leagues and language-groups shall serve Him; His jurisdiction, as an eonian jurisdiction, will not pass away, and His kingdom shall not be confined."

¹⁴ to Him is granted jurisdiction and esteem and a kingdom, and all the peoples and leagues and language-groups shall serve Him; His jurisdiction, as an eonian jurisdiction, will not pass away, and His kingdom shall not be confined."

²⁵ And you shall know and be intelligent:From the faring forth of the word to cause a return and to rebuild Jerusalem--from then till Messiah the Governor is seven sevens, and sixty-two sevens. It will return and will be rebuilt, square and salient, even in eras of constraint."

⁷ Yet on the house of Judah will I have compassion, and I will save them by Yahweh, their Elohim. Yet I will not save them by bow, or by sword, or by battle, by horses or by horsemen."

¹⁰ Yet the number of the sons of Israel shall become as the sand of the sea, which is not being measured nor numbered. And it comes to be in the place in which it was being said to them, Not My people are you, there shall it be said to them, sons of the living El."

¹⁵ and I give to her her vineyards thence, and the vale of Achor for a portal of expectation. And she responds there as in the days of her youth, and as the day of her ascension from the land of Egypt."

²³ Then I sow her to Myself in the land, and I have compassion on Lo-ruhamah. And I say to Lo-ammi, My people are you! And he is saying, Yahweh, my Elohim are You."

⁵ Afterward are the sons of Israel returning, and they seek Yahweh their Elohim, and David their king, and they come in awe to Yahweh and to His goodness, in the latter days."

¹ Go, and we will return to Yahweh, our Elohim, for He tore to pieces, and He will heal us:He was smiting, and He will bind us up."

¹ as My healing is for Israel, then the depravity of Ephraim is revealed and the evils of Samaria. For they contrive falsehood, and the thief is coming, and the raiding party emerges into the street."

³² And it comes that everyone who shall call on the name of Yahweh shall escape, for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem, deliverance shall come to be, just as Yahweh says; and among the survivors are those whom Yahweh is calling."

²¹ And I will avenge their blood, and will not hold the others innocent, when Yahweh shall tabernacle in Zion."

⁷ For my Lord Yahweh is not doing a thing save He reveals His deliberation to His servants, the prophets."

⁸ The Maker of the Pleiades and Orion, and He Who is turning the shadow of death to morning, and darkens day to night, He Who is calling to the waters of the sea, and is pouring them out on the surface of the earth--Yahweh, Elohim of hosts, is His name!"

⁶ He Who is building His ascents in the heavens, and His structure over the earth--He founds it, He Who is calling to the waters of the sea, and is pouring them out on the surface of the earth, Yahweh, Elohim of hosts, is His name!"

¹¹ In that day will I raise up the fallen booth of David, and I will dike with stones its breaches, and its demolished places will I raise, and I will build it as in the days of the eon,

¹⁴ And I will reverse the captivity of My people Israel, and they shall build the desolated cities and dwell in them. And they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine, and shall make gardens and eat their fruit." ¹⁵ And I will plant them on their ground, and not again shall they be plucked up off their ground which I give to them. Says Yahweh, your Elohim, Him Who-Suffices."

¹⁹ And they of the south rim shall tenant mount Esau, and they of the lowland, the Philistines, and they shall tenant the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria, and Benjamin shall tenant Gilead." ²⁰ And the deportation, these valorous of the sons of Israel, shall tenant the land which is the Canaanites' unto Zarephas, and the deportation of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall tenant the cities of the south rim."

⁹ Yet let me, with the voice of praise and acclamation, sacrifice to You; let me repay to You that which I vowed. Salvation is of Yahweh."

⁴ Then shall they cry out to Yahweh, and He will not answer them, and He will conceal His face from them in that era, just as they do evil in their actions."

³ And He judges between many peoples, and corrects staunch nations still afar, and they pound their swords into mattocks, and their spears into pruners; nation is not lifting the sword against nation, nor are they learning war any more."

² And you, Bethlehem Ephratah, inferior to be among the mentors of Judah, from you shall One fare forth for Me to become the Ruler in Israel; yet His farings forth are from aforetime, from days eonian."

¹⁴ Shepherd Your people with Your club, the flock of Your allotment, tabernacling solitary in the wildwood in the midst of Carmel. They shall graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the days of the eon." ¹⁵ As the days of your faring forth from the land of Egypt, will I show marvels to them."

¹⁵ As the days of your faring forth from the land of Egypt, will I show marvels to them." ¹⁶ The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their mastery. They will place a hand on the mouth. Their ears will be deaf. ¹⁷ They will lick up soil as a serpent. As skulkers of the earth shall they be disturbed from their borders. Of Yahweh, our Elohim, shall they be afraid, and they shall fear because of You." ¹⁸ Who is an El as You are, bearing with depravity, and passing over transgression, for the remnant of His allotment? He does not hold fast His anger for the future. For He delights in kindness." ¹⁹ He will return, having compassion on us. He will subdue our depravities. And You wilt fling into the shadowy depths of the sea all our sins."

¹⁰ And he will scoff at kings, and chancellors will be sport to him; he will sport with every fortress and pile up soil and seize it."

⁶ And the sea board shall come to be a homestead, a place cut out for shepherds, and stone dikes for flocks." ⁷ And the sea board shall come to be for the remnant of the house of Judah; on them shall they graze; in the houses of Ashkelon shall they recline in the evening, for Yahweh, their Elohim, shall visit them, and will reverse their captivity."

¹⁴ Be jubilant, daughter of Zion! Shout, Israel! Rejoice and joy with all the heart, daughter of Jerusalem!" ¹⁵ Yahweh takes away your judgments; He faces your enemies about. The King of Israel, Yahweh, is within you; you shall see no further evil." ¹⁶ In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, You must not fear! Zion, you must not slacken your hands!" ¹⁷ Yahweh, your Elohim, is within you; He, the Master, will save. He will be elated over you with rejoicing; He will renew you in His love; He will exult over you with jubilation."

¹⁷ Yahweh, your Elohim, is within you; He, the Master, will save. He will be elated over you with rejoicing; He will renew you in His love; He will exult over you with jubilation." ¹⁸ Those from you, afflicted because of the appointment, I will gather, Woe! Who lifts over her a reproach? ¹⁹ Behold Me dealing with all those humbling you, at that season, (averring is Yahweh). And I will save her who is limping, and her who is expelled will I convene; and I will make them a praise and a name in the entire earth of their shame." ²⁰ At that season will I bring you in, even at the season of my convening you; for I will give you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth, in My reversal of your captivities before your eyes, says Yahweh."

²⁰ At that season will I bring you in, even at the season of my convening you; for I will give you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth, in My reversal of your captivities before your eyes, says Yahweh."

⁶ For thus says Yahweh of hosts:Still once, a little it is, and I am quaking the heavens and the earth and the sea and the drained land;" ⁷ and I will quake all the nations; and the coveted of all the nations shall come. And I will fill this house with glory, says Yahweh of hosts." ⁸ Mine is the silver, and Mine is the gold, (averring is Yahweh of hosts)." ⁹ Greater shall become the glory of this latter house than the former, says Yahweh of hosts. And in this place will I give peace, (averring is Yahweh of hosts)."

¹⁷ And the messenger who is speaking with me is saying to me, Again, call, saying, Thus says Yahweh of hosts:My cities shall again overflow from the good; and Yahweh shall comfort Zion further, and He shall still choose Jerusalem."

⁸ Hear, pray, Joshua, the great priest, you and your associates who are sitting before you, for mortals of a miracle are they, for behold Me bringing My servant, the Sprout."

¹² And you speak to him, saying, Thus speaks Yahweh of hosts, saying:Behold the man! Sprout is his name. And from under him shall it sprout. And he shall build the temple of Yahweh, ¹³ even he shall build the temple of Yahweh, and he shall bear the splendor. And he shall sit and rule on his throne, and there comes to be a priest at his throne, and the counsel of welfare shall come to be between the two of them."

¹⁹ Thus says Yahweh of hosts:The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall become to the house of Judah elation and rejoicing and good appointments, and you will exult. Hence love truth and peace!" ²⁰ Thus says Yahweh of hosts:Still it shall be that many peoples shall come, and the dwellers of many cities." ²¹ And the dwellers of five cities shall go to another city, saying, We are going assuredly to beseech the face of Yahweh, and to seek Yahweh of hosts; I am going, moreover." ²² And many peoples and staunch nations will come to seek Yahweh of hosts in Jerusalem, and to beseech the face of Yahweh." ²³ Thus says Yahweh of hosts:In those days ten mortals, from all the languages of the nations, will take fast hold. And they will take fast hold of the hem of a man, a Jew, saying, We will go with you, for we hear that Elohim is with you."

⁹ Exult exceedingly, daughter of Zion! Shout, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold! your King shall come to you! Righteous and endowed with salvation is He. Humble and riding on an ass, and on a colt, the foal of a she-ass." ¹⁰ And He will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem. And the bow of battle shall be cut off; and He will speak peace to the nations. And His rule is from sea unto sea and from the stream unto the limits of the land."

¹⁷ For how good is He! And how lovely is He! Grain for choice men, and grape juice will He produce for virgins."

⁶ And I will give mastery to the house of Judah, and the house of Joseph will I save. And I will cause them to dwell, for I have compassion on them, and they shall come to be as if I had not cast them off; for I am Yahweh their Elohim, and I will respond to them." ⁷ And Ephraim shall become as a master, and their heart shall rejoice as from wine, and their sons shall see, and they shall rejoice. Their heart shall exult in Yahweh."

² Behold I am making Jerusalem a shivering threshold to all the peoples round about. And, moreover, over Judah it shall come to be in the siege over Jerusalem."

⁸ In that day Yahweh shall be a protection about the dwellers of Jerusalem, and the stumbler among them, in that day, shall become as David, and the house of David as the house of Elohim, as a messenger of Yahweh before them."

¹ In that day there shall come to be a fountain opened for the house of David, and for the dwellers of Jerusalem, for sin and for isolation."

¹ Behold Me sending My messenger, and he surfaces the way before Me. And suddenly, the Lord Whom you are seeking is coming to his temple, and the Messenger of the covenant, in Whom you are delighting. Behold! He comes! says Yahweh of hosts."

³⁵ so that fulfilled may be that which is declared through the prophet saying, I shall be opening My mouth in parables, I shall be emitting what is hid from the disruption."

³⁵ Heaven and earth shall be passing by, yet My words may by no means be passing by."

³² He shall be great, and Son of the Most High shall He be called. And the Lord God shall be giving Him the throne of David, ³³ His father, and He shall reign over the house of Jacob for the eons. And of His kingdom there shall be no consummation."

⁶⁹ And rouses a horn of salvation for us In the house of David, His boy, ⁷⁰ According as He speaks through the mouth of His holy prophets, who are from the eon; "

¹⁰ And the messenger said to them, "Fear not, for lo! I am bringing you an evangel of great joy which will be for the entire people, ¹¹ for today was brought forth to you a Saviour, Who is Christ, the Lord,

²⁴ For I am saying to you that many prophets and kings want to perceive what you are observing, and they perceive not, and to hear of Me what you are hearing, and they hear not."

⁹ And I to you am saying, Request, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you." ¹⁰ For everyone who is requesting is obtaining and who is seeking is finding, and to the one knocking it shall be opened."

⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and losing one of them, is not leaving the ninety-nine in the wilderness and is going after the lost one, till he may be finding it?

²⁹ He Who has the bride is the Bridegroom. Yet the friend of the Bridegroom, who stands and is hearing Him, is rejoicing with joy because of the Bridegroom's voice. This, my joy, then, has been fulfilled."

²² For neither is the Father judging anyone, but has given all judging to the Son, ²³ that all may be honoring the Son, according as they are honoring the Father. He who is not honoring the Son is not honoring the Father Who sends Him." ²⁴ Verily, verily, I am saying to you that he who is hearing My word and believing Him Who sends Me, has life eonian and is not coming into judging, but has proceeded out of death into life." ²⁵ Verily, verily, I am saying to you that coming is an hour, and now is, when the dead shall be hearing the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear shall be living." ²⁶ For even as the Father has life in Himself, thus to the Son also He gives to have life in Himself." ²⁷ And He gives Him authority to do judging, seeing that He is a son of mankind." ²⁸ Marvel not at this, for coming is the hour in which all who are in the tombs shall hear His voice, ²⁹ and those who do good shall go out into a resurrection of life, yet those who commit bad things, into a resurrection of judging."

³ To him the doorkeeper is opening, and the sheep are hearing his voice, and he is summoning his own sheep by name and is leading them out." ⁴ And whenever he should be ejecting all his own, he is going in front of them, and the sheep are following him, for they are acquainted with his voice."

¹⁰ The thief is not coming except that he should be stealing and sacrificing and destroying. I came that they may have life eonian, and have it superabundantly."

²¹ And it shall be that everyone, whosoever should be invoking the name of the Lord, shall be saved.'"

³² And we are bringing to you the evangel which comes to be a promise to the fathers, ³³ that God has fully fulfilled this for our children in raising Jesus, as it is written in the second psalm also, 'My Son art Thou; I, today, have begotten Thee.'"

²¹ because, knowing God, not as God do they glorify or thank Him, but vain were they made in their reasonings, and darkened is their unintelligent heart."

¹² For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same One is Lord of all, being rich for all who are invoking Him." ¹³ For everyone, whoever should be invoking the name of the Lord, shall be saved."

¹ I am saying, then, Does not God thrust away His people? May it not be coming to that! For I also am an Israelite, out of Abraham's seed, Benjamin's tribe." ² God does not thrust away His people whom He foreknew. Or have you not perceived in Elijah what the scripture is saying, as he is pleading with God against Israel? ³ Lord, Thy prophets they kill, Thine altars they dig down, and I was left alone, and they are seeking my soul." ⁴ But what is that which apprises saying to him? I left for Myself seven thousand men who do not bow the knee to the image of Baal. ⁵ Thus, then, in the current era also, there has come to be a remnant according to the choice of grace." ⁶ Now if it is in grace, it is no longer out of works, else the grace is coming to be no longer grace. Now, if it is out of works, it is no longer grace, else the work is no longer work."

²⁶ And thus all Israel shall be saved, according as it is written, Arriving out of Zion shall be the Rescuer. He will be turning away irreverence from Jacob."

³² For God locks up all together in stubbornness, that He should be merciful to all."

¹⁶ for me to be the minister of Christ Jesus for the nations, acting as a priest of the evangel of God, that the approach present of the nations may be becoming well received, having been hallowed by holy spirit."

² to the ecclesia of God which is in Corinth, hallowed in Christ Jesus, called saints, together with all in every place who are invoking the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:"

³⁰ Yet you, of Him, are in Christ Jesus, Who became to us wisdom from God, besides righteousness and holiness and deliverance,

⁷ but we are speaking God's wisdom in a secret, wisdom which has been concealed, which God designates before - before the eons, for our glory, ⁸ which not one of the chief men of this eon knows, for if they know, they would not crucify the Lord of glory." ⁹ But, according as it is written, That which the eye did not perceive, and the ear did not hear, and to which the heart of man did not ascend - whatever God makes ready for those who are loving Him." ¹⁰ Yet to us God reveals them through His spirit, for the spirit is searching all, even the depths of God." ¹¹ For is any of humanity acquainted with that which is human except the spirit of humanity which is in it? Thus also, that which is of God no one knows, except the spirit of God."

²⁰ For whatever promises are of God, are in Him "Yes.Wherefore through Him also is the "Amento God, for glory, through us."

²¹ For the One not knowing sin, He makes to be a sin offering for our sakes that we may be becoming God's righteousness in Him." ²² Now the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law."

²⁰ Now to Him Who is able to do superexcessively above all that we are requesting or apprehending, according to the power that is operating in us,

²³ Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God, the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ."

⁹ and may be found in Him, not having my righteousness, which is of law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is from God for faith:"

⁹ in which I am suffering evil unto bonds as a malefactor - but the word of God is not bound.

⁵ not for works which are wrought in righteousness which we do, but according to His mercy, He saves us, through the bath of renascence and renewal of holy spirit, ⁶ which He pours out on us richly through Jesus Christ, our Saviour,

⁸ Yet to the Son: "Thy throne, O God, is for the eon of the eon, And a scepter of rectitude is the scepter of Thy kingdom." ⁹ Thou lovest righteousness and hatest injustice; Therefore Thou art anointed by God, Thy God, with the oil of exultation beyond Thy partners."

¹⁷ in which God, intending more superabundantly to exhibit to the enjoyers of the allotment of the promise the immutability of His counsel, interposes with an oath, ¹⁸ that by two immutable matters, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong consolation, who are fleeing for refuge to lay hold of the expectation lying before us,

¹ For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who meets with Abraham returning from the combat with the kings and blesses him, ² to whom Abraham parts a tithe also, from all; being first, indeed, translated king of righteousness,yet thereupon king of Salem, also, which is "king of Peace";"

¹¹ Now Christ, coming along a Chief Priest of the impending good things through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made by hands, that is, not of this creation;" ¹² not even through the blood of he-goats and calves, but through His own blood, entered once for all time into the holy places, finding eonian redemption." ¹³ For if the blood of he-goats and of bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the contaminated, is hallowing to the cleanness of the flesh, ¹⁴ how much rather shall the blood of Christ, Who, through the eonian spirit offers Himself flawless to God, be cleansing your conscience from dead works to be offering divine service to the living and true God?

¹⁰ For he waited for the city having foundations, whose Artificer and Architect is God. "

¹² wherefore, also, were begotten by one, and these of one who is deadened, according as the constellations of heaven in multitude, and as the sand beside the sea shore innumerable."

¹⁶ Yet now they are craving a better, that is, a celestial; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be invoked as their God, for He makes ready for them a city."

⁴⁰ (the looking forward is to something better), that, apart from us, they may not be perfected."

¹⁵ Through Him, then, we may be offering up the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips avowing His name."

¹⁵ Through Him, then, we may be offering up the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips avowing His name." ¹⁶ Now of well doing and contributing be not forgetful, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased."

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who, according to His vast mercy, regenerates us into a living expectation, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead,

¹⁰ Concerning which salvation the prophets seek out and search out, who prophesy concerning the grace which is for you,

⁵ you, also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, into a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, most acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. "

⁹ Yet you are a chosen race, a "royal priesthood,a "holy nation,a procured people, so that you should be recounting the virtues of Him Who calls you out of darkness into His marvelous light,

¹ Simeon Peter, a slave and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who are chancing upon an equally precious faith with us, in the righteousness of our God, and the Saviour, Jesus Christ:"

⁷ Yet if we should be walking in the light as He is in the light, we are having fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, is cleansing us from every sin." ⁸ If we should be saying that we have no sin we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us." ⁹ If we should be avowing our sins, He is faithful and just that He may be pardoning us our sins and should be cleansing us from all injustice."

⁵ and from Jesus Christ, the Faithful Witness, the Firstborn of the dead, and the Suzerain of the kings of the earth. To Him Who is loving us and looses us from our sins by His blood" ⁶ and makes us a kingdom and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and might for the eons of the eons! Amen!"

¹⁷ '"Who has an ear, let him hear what the spirit is saying to the ecclesias. "'"To the one who is conquering, to him will I be giving of the hidden manna, and I shall be giving him a white pebble and on the pebble a new name written, of which no one is aware except the one who is obtaining it."'"

¹⁰ Thou dost also make them a kingdom and a priesthood for our God, And they shall be reigning on the earth."

⁹ After these things I perceived, and lo! a vast throng which no one was able to number, out of every nation and out of the tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lambkin, clothed in white robes and with palm fronds in their hands." ¹⁰ And they are crying with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be our God's, Who is sitting on the throne, And the Lambkin's!"

²³ and the light of a lamp may be appearing in you nevermore; and the voice of the bridegroom and bride should be heard in you nevermore; for your merchants were the magnates of the earth, for by your enchantment all nations were deceived."

¹⁰ And I fall in front of his feet to worship him. And he is saying to me, "See! No! A fellow slave of yours am I, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." ¹¹ And I perceived heaven open, and lo! a white horse. And He Who is sitting on it is called "Faithful and True,and in righteousness is He judging and battling."

² I perceived the holy city, new Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband."

¹⁰ And he carries me away, in spirit, on a mountain, huge and high, and shows me the holy city, Jerusalem, as it is descending out of heaven from God,
