³⁵ They have stricken me, you will say and I was not hurt. They have beaten me and I did not feel it. When shall I awake? I will seek it yet again.

Every house is shut up, that no man may come in. ¹¹ There is a crying in the streets because of the wine. All joy is darkened. The gladness of the land has gone.

¹⁵ What has my beloved to do in my house, seeing she has worked lewdness with many and the holy flesh has passed from you? When you do evil, then you rejoice.
¹⁶ Jehovah called your name, A green olive tree, fair with fruit. With the noise of a great tumult he has kindled fire upon it and the branches of it are broken.

¹³ Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness and his chambers by injustice, who uses his neighbor's service without wages and gives him not his hire,

¹⁷ But your eyes and your heart are not but for your covetousness and for shedding innocent blood and for oppression and for violence, to do it.

³⁴ Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me. He has crushed me. He has made me an empty vessel. He has, like a monster, swallowed me up. He has filled his stomach with my delicacies. He has cast me out.

⁴⁴ And I will execute judgment upon Bel in Babylon and I will bring forth out of his mouth what he has swallowed up. And the nations will not flow any more to him. Yes, the wall of Babylon will fall.

¹⁶ All your enemies have opened their mouth wide against you. They hiss and gnash the teeth. They say, We have swallowed her up. Certainly this is the day that we looked for. We have found, we have seen it.

¹² The time has come; the day draws near. Do not let the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn, for wrath is upon all the multitude of it.

⁷ For they sow the wind and they will reap the whirlwind. He has no standing grain. The blade will yield no meal. Perhaps it yields, strangers will swallow it up. ⁸ Israel is swallowed up. They are now among the nations as a vessel in which no man delights.

¹ Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy like the peoples, for you have played the prostitute, departing from your God. You have loved hire upon every grain-floor.

⁴ Hear this, O you* who would swallow up a needy man and cause the poor of the land to fail,

¹³ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you are devouring widows’houses, and praying long prayers for a pretext, because of this, you will be receiving even-more condemnation.

²⁴ You blind guides, who strain out the gnat and swallow the camel!

⁸ Draw near to God and he will be drawing near to you. Cleanse your hands sinners and purify your hearts you indecisive! ⁹ Be miserable and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy be turned to gloom.

³³ The fruit of your ground and all your labors, will a nation eat up which you do not know. And you will only be oppressed and crushed always,

³ Here I am. Witness against me before Jehovah and before his anointed: Whose ox have I taken? Or whose donkey have I taken? Or whom have I defrauded? Whom have I oppressed? Or of whose hand have I taken a bribe to blind my eyes with it? And I will restore it to you*.
⁴ And they said, You have not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither have you taken anything of any man's hand.

¹⁹ And you will speak to him, saying, Jehovah says thus, Have you killed and also taken possession? And you will speak to him, saying, Jehovah says thus, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth will dogs lick your blood, even your.

¹⁵ There will dwell in his tent what is none of his. Brimstone will be scattered upon his habitation.

²⁷ Behold, I know your* thoughts and the devices with which you* would wrong me. ²⁸ For you* say, Where is the house of the prince? And where is the tent in which the wicked dwelt?

⁶ For you have taken pledges from your brother for nothing and stripped the naked of their clothing.

² There are men who remove the landmarks. They take away flocks violently and feed them. ³ They drive away the donkey of the fatherless. They take the widow's ox for a pledge. ⁴ They turn the needy out of the way. The poor of the earth all hide themselves.
⁵ Behold, as wild donkeys in the desert, they go forth to their work, seeking diligently for food. The wilderness yields them bread for their sons. ⁶ They cut their fodder in the field and they glean the vintage of the wicked. ⁷ They lie all night naked without clothing and have no covering in the cold. ⁸ They are wet with the showers of the mountains and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.
⁹ There are men who pluck the fatherless from the breast and take a pledge of the poor, ¹⁰ so that they go about naked without clothing and being hungry they carry the sheaves. ¹¹ They make oil within the walls of these men. They tread their winepresses and suffer thirst. ¹² From out of the populous city men groan and the soul of the wounded cries out. Yet God does not regard the foolishness.

¹³ If I have despised the case of my man-servant or of my maid-servant when they contended with me, ¹⁴ what then shall I do when God rises up? And when he visits, what shall I answer him? ¹⁵ Did not he who made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb?
¹⁶ If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail, ¹⁷ or have eaten my morsel alone and the fatherless has not eaten of it ¹⁸ (no, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father and her I have guided from my mother's womb); ¹⁹ if I have seen any perish for lack of clothing, or that the needy had no covering; ²⁰ if his loins have not blessed me and if he has not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep; ²¹ if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, because I saw my help in the gate, ²² then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder-blade and my arm be broken from the bone.

³⁸ If my land cries out against me and the furrows of it weep together; ³⁹ if I have eaten the fruits of it without money, or have caused the owners of it to lose their lives,

⁹ Because of the multitude of oppressions they cry out. They cry for help because of the arm of the mighty.

¹⁸ to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more terrify.

⁵ Because of the oppression of the poor, because of the sighing of the needy, now I will arise, says Jehovah. I will set him into the safety he breathes for.

³¹ He who oppresses a poor man reproaches his maker, but he who has mercy on a needy man honors him.

²² Do not rob a poor man, because he is poor, nor oppress an afflicted man in the gate. ²³ Because Jehovah will plead their cause and despoil of life those who despoil them.

¹ Then I returned and saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold, the tears of such as were oppressed and they had no comforter. And on the side of their oppressors there was power, but they had no comforter.

⁸ If you see the oppression of a poor man and the violent robbery of justice and righteousness in a province, marvel not at the matter. Because a man higher than the high is observing and there are higher men than they.

⁷ For the vineyard of Jehovah of hosts is the house of Israel and the men of Judah his pleasant plant. And he looked for justice, but, behold, oppression, for righteousness, but, behold, a cry.
⁸ Woe to those who join house to house, who lay field to field, till there is no room and you* are made to dwell alone in the midst of the land!

³⁴ To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,

²⁹ The people of the land have used oppression and exercised robbery. Yes, they have distressed the poor and needy man and have oppressed the traveler wrongfully.

¹ Hear this word, you* cows of Bashan, who are in the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who say to their lords, Bring and let us drink. ² The lord Jehovah has sworn by his holiness, that behold, the days will come upon you*, that they will take you* away with hooks and your* residue with fish-hooks. ³ And you* will go out at the breaches, each one straight before her and you* will cast yourselves into Harmon, says Jehovah.

² And they desire fields and seize them and houses and take them away. And they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.

⁹ You* cast out the women of my people from their pleasant houses. You* take away my glory from their young sons everlasting.

⁶ But you have dishonored the poor. Are the rich not oppressing you? And are they themselves not dragging you into the courts?

¹³ For the judgment is merciless to the one who has not practiced mercy; mercy wins over judgment.

⁴ Behold, the wages of the workers who mowed your farmlands, the wages which have been defrauded by you, are crying out against you and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Hosts.

¹³ There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun; riches were kept by its owner to his evil. ¹⁴ And those riches perish by an evil task. And if he has fathered a son, there is nothing in his hand.

²⁰ But the wicked are like the troubled sea, for it cannot rest and its waters cast up mud and dirt. ²¹ There is no peace, says my God, to the wicked.

²⁹ He will not be rich, neither will his substance continue, neither will their possessions be extended on the earth.

¹⁹ He will have neither son nor son's son among his people, nor any remaining where he traveled.

¹¹ As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches and not by right. In the midst of his days they will leave him and at his end he will be a fool.

²⁴ And having shouted, he said, Father Abraham, show-mercy to me, and send Lazarus in order that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and may cool my tongue, because I am in anguish in this flame.
²⁵ But Abraham said, Child, remember that you received your good things in your life and Lazarus likewise evil things, but now he is comforted here and you are in anguish.

² And Jehovah sent against him bands of the Chaldeans and bands of the Syrians and bands of the Moabites and bands of the sons of Ammon and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke by his servants the prophets.

¹⁵ and the Sabeans fell upon them and took them away. Yes, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword and only I alone have escaped to tell you.

¹⁷ While he was yet speaking, there came also another and said, The Chaldeans made three bands and fell upon the camels and have taken them away, yes and slain the servants with the edge of the sword and only I alone have escaped to tell you.

¹⁷ There the wicked cease from troubling and there the weary are at rest.

¹¹ God delivers me to the perverse and casts me into the hands of the wicked.

⁷ The steps of his strength will be restricted and his own counsel will cast him down.

⁵ Behold, you have made my days as the width of hands and my life-time is as nothing before you. Surely every man at his best condition is altogether vanity. Selah.

¹⁸ And I hated all my labor in which I labored under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the man who will be after me. ¹⁹ And who knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool? Yet he will have rule over all my labor in which I have labored and in which I have shown myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity.
²⁰ Therefore I turned around to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labor in which I had labored under the sun.

⁶ I will send him against a profane nation and against the people of my wrath. I will give him a charge, to take the spoil and to take the prey and to tread them down like the mud of the streets.

⁷ In how-much she glorified herself and was promiscuous, give to her so-much more torment and mourning, because she says in her heart, I am sitting as a queen and I am no widow and may never see mourning.

²⁴ Then Jehovah rained brimstone and fire upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah, from Jehovah out of heaven.

²³ And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven and Jehovah sent thunder and hail and fire ran down to the earth and Jehovah rained hail upon the land of Egypt.

³³ While the flesh was yet between their teeth, before it was chewed, the anger of Jehovah was kindled against the people and Jehovah killed* the people with a very great plague.

⁶ He will rain snares upon sinners. Fire and brimstone and burning wind will be the portion of their cup.

³⁰ They were not estranged from what they desired. Their food was yet in their mouths ³¹ when the anger of God went up against them and killed of the fattest of them and killed* down the young men of Israel.

⁴ My heart wanders. Horror has frightened me. The twilight that I desired has been turned into trembling to me.

¹⁷ and he was reasoning in himself, saying, What should I do, because I have nowhere, in which, I will gather together my fruits? ¹⁸ And he said, I will be doing this: I will be taking down my barns and build greater ones. And I will be gathering together there, all my fruits of labor and my good things. ¹⁹ And I will be saying to my soul, Soul, you have many good things laid up for many years; rest yourself, eat, drink, and be joyous.
²⁰ But God said to him, Fool, your soul is asked back from you in this night, and the things which you prepared, whose will they be?

³⁵ He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of brass.

³⁰ But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city and the wall fell upon twenty-seven thousand men who were left. And Ben-hadad fled and came into the city, into an inner chamber.

²³ till an arrow strikes through his liver, as a bird hastens to the snare. And he does not know that it is for his life.

¹⁸ And it will happen, that he who flees from the noise of the fear will fall into the pit and he who comes up out of the midst of the pit will be taken in the snare. For the windows on high are opened and the foundations of the earth tremble.

⁴³ Fear and the pit and the snare are upon you, O inhabitant of Moab, says Jehovah. ⁴⁴ He who flees from the fear will fall into the pit and he who gets up out of the pit will be taken in the snare. For I will bring upon him, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, says Jehovah.

¹⁹ As if a man fled from a lion and a bear met him, or went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall and a serpent bit him.

¹ I saw the Lord standing beside the altar. And he said, Strike the capitals, that the thresholds may shake and break them in pieces on the head of all of them and I will kill the last of them with the sword. There will not one of them flee away and there will not one of them escape.
² Though they dig into Sheol, from there my hand will take them and though they climb up to heaven, from there I will bring them down. ³ And though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there. And though they are hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, from there I will command the serpent and it will bite them.

⁴¹ if I flash my glittering sword and my hand takes hold on judgment, I will render vengeance to my adversaries and will recompense those who hate me.

¹⁴ Then Joab said, I will not delay thus with you. And he took three darts in his hand and thrust them through the heart of Absalom while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.

⁴ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison of which my spirit drinks up. The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.

²¹ Sound of terrors is in his ears. In prosperity the destroyer will come upon him.

¹³ His archers encompass me all around. He splits my reins apart and does not spare. He pours out my gall upon the ground.

¹¹ Terrors will make him afraid on every side and will chase him at his heels.

²⁰ Terrors overtake him like waters. A tempest steals him away in the night.

¹² If a man does not repent, he will flash his sword. He has bent his bow and made it ready.

¹⁹ How they have become a desolation in a moment! They are utterly consumed with terrors.

¹⁵ I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up. While I suffer your terrors I am confounded.

³ And it happened on the morrow, that Pashhur brought out Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, Jehovah has not called your name Pashhur, but Magor-missabib.
⁴ For Jehovah says thus, Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. And they will fall by the sword of their enemies and your eyes will behold it. And I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will carry them captive to Babylon and will kill them with the sword.

¹¹ Therefore knowing the fear of the Lord, we are persuading men, but we have been manifested to God, and I hope to have also been manifested in your consciences.

¹⁸ He will be driven from light into darkness and chased out of the world. ¹⁹ He will have neither son nor son's son among his people, nor any remaining where he traveled.

⁹ You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. Jehovah will swallow them up in his wrath and the fire will devour them.

⁹ Let his sons be fatherless and his wife a widow. ¹⁰ Let his sons be vagabonds and beg and let them seek out of their desolate places. ¹¹ Let a creditor exact all that he has and let strangers make spoil of his labor.
¹² Let there be none to prolong kindness to him, nor let there be any to have pity on his fatherless sons. ¹³ Let his posterity be cut off. Let their name be blotted out in the following generation.
¹⁴ Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with Jehovah and do not let the sin of his mother be blotted out.
¹⁵ Let them be before Jehovah continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth,

⁴ Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

²² And they will look to the earth, and behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish and into thick darkness to be driven away.

²⁰ You will not be joined with them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have slain your people. The seed of evildoers will not be named everlasting.
²¹ Prepare you* slaughter for his sons for the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth and fill the face of the world with cities. ²² And I will rise up against them, says Jehovah of hosts and cut off from Babylon name and remnant and son and son's son, says Jehovah.

³³ For a Topheth is prepared of old, yes, it is made ready for the king. He has made it deep and large. The pile of it is fire and much wood. The breath of Jehovah kindles it, like a stream of brimstone.

¹² whose winnowing fan is in his hand, and he will be thoroughly cleansing his threshing floor, and he will be gathering his grain into the barn, but the chaff he will be burning up with unquenchable fire.

¹² but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness–the weeping and the gnashing of teeth will be there.

¹³ wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shames, misleading stars–for whom the blackness of darkness has been kept forever.

²⁸ Assemble to me all the elders of your* tribes and your* officers, that I may speak these words in their ears and call heaven and earth to witness against them.

¹⁸ O earth, do not cover you my blood and let my cry have no resting place.

²⁰ If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god, ²¹ will not God search this out? Because he knows the secrets of the heart.

²¹ For, behold, Jehovah comes forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth also will disclose her blood and will no more cover her slain.

²³ because they have done senselessness in Israel and have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I did not command them. And I am he who knows and am witness, says Jehovah.

⁵ And I will come near to you* to judgment and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers and against the adulterers and against the false swearers and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow and the fatherless and who turn aside the traveler and do not fear me, says Jehovah of hosts.

² But nothing is covered up, that will not be revealed; or secret, that will not be known. ³ Because as many things as you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear in the storerooms will be preached upon the housetops.

¹⁶ in the day when God will be judging the secrets of men through Jesus Christ, according to my teaching of the good-news.

⁵ So-then, do not judge anything before the time, until the Lord should come, who will both be illuminating the hidden things of darkness and will be manifesting the plans of the hearts, and then the praise from God will happen for each.

³¹ Your ox will be slain before your eyes and you will not eat of it. Your donkey will be violently taken away from before your face and will not be restored to you. Your sheep will be given to your enemies and you will have none to save you.

¹⁷ Behold, the days come that all that is in your house and what your fathers have laid up in store to this day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says Jehovah.

⁵ whose harvest the hungry eat up and takes it even out of the thorns and the snare pants for their substance.

¹⁸ What he labored for will he restore and will not swallow it down. According to the substance that he has gotten, he will not rejoice.
¹⁹ For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor. He has violently taken away a house and he will not build it up. ²⁰ Because he knew no quietness within him, he will not save any of that in which he delights. ²¹ There was nothing left that he did not devour, therefore his prosperity will not endure.
²² In the fullness of his sufficiency he will be in straits. The hand of everyone who is in misery will come upon him.

³⁰ that the evil man is reserved to the day of calamity? That they are led forth to the day of wrath?

¹⁴ If his sons be multiplied, it is for the sword. And his offspring will not be satisfied with bread.
¹⁵ Those who remain of him will be buried in death and his widows will make no lamentation.
¹⁶ Though he heaps up silver as the dust and prepares garments as the clay, ¹⁷ he may prepare it, but the just will put it on and the innocent will divide the silver. ¹⁸ He builds his house as the moth and as a booth which the keeper makes.
¹⁹ He lies down rich, but he will not be gathered to his fathers. He opens his eyes and he is not.

⁴ Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death.

¹⁸ Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them in the day of Jehovah's wrath, but the whole land will be devoured by the fire of his jealousy. For he will make an end, yes, a terrible end, of all those who dwell in the land.

²⁶ For what is a man profited, if he gains the whole world, and should forfeit his soul? Or what shall a man give as an exchange for his soul?

¹ Come now you rich, weep, howling in your miseries, in those which are coming upon you. ² Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten. ³ Your gold and silver have tarnished, and their tarnish will be for a testimony against you and will be eating your flesh like fire. You have stored up treasure in your^\'b0 last days.

¹⁷ Because in an hour so-many riches was made desolate. And every helmsman and everyone who sails any place and sailors and as many as are working from the sea, stood from afar,

²⁰ Jehovah will not pardon him, but then the anger of Jehovah and his jealousy will smoke against that man and all the curse that is written in this book will lie upon him and Jehovah will blot out his name from under heaven. ²¹ And Jehovah will set him apart to evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that is written in this book of the law.
²² And the generation to come, your* sons who will rise up after you* and the foreigner who will come from a far land, will say, when they see the calamities of that land and the sicknesses with which Jehovah has made it sick. ²³ The whole land of it is brimstone and salt, a burning. It is not sown, nor bears, nor any grass grows in it, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which Jehovah overthrew in his anger and in his wrath, ²⁴ even all the nations will say, Why has Jehovah done thus to this land? What is the meaning of the heat of this great anger?
²⁵ Then men will say, Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, ²⁶ and went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods that they did not know and that he had not given to them. ²⁷ Therefore the anger of Jehovah was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curse that is written in this book. ²⁸ And Jehovah rooted them out of their land in anger and in wrath and in great indignation and cast them into another land, as at this day.

²¹ Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous and this is the place of him who does not know God.

¹³ This is the portion of a wicked man with God and the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty.

² For what is the portion from God above and the heritage from the Almighty on high? ³ Is it not calamity to the unrighteous and disaster to the workers of wickedness?

⁵ Jehovah tries the righteous man. But his soul hates the wicked man and he who loves violence. ⁶ He will rain snares upon sinners. Fire and brimstone and burning wind will be the portion of their cup.

³⁸ Out of the mouth of the Most High does there not come evil and good?

⁵¹ and will flog him, and will place his part with the hypocrites–the weeping and the gnashing of teeth will be there.
