The sinH2403 of JudahH3063 is writtenH3789 with a penH5842 of iron,H1270 and with the pointH6856 of a diamond:H8068 it is gravenH2790 on the tableH3871 of their heart,H3820 and on the hornsH7161 of your altars;H4196
2
Whilst their childrenH1121 rememberH2142 their altarsH4196 and their grovesH842 by the greenH7488 treesH6086 on the highH1364 hills.H1389
3
O my mountainH2042 in the field,H7704 I will giveH5414 your substanceH2428 and allH3605 your treasuresH214 to the spoil,H957 and your highH1116 places for sin,H2403 throughout allH3605 your borders.H1366
4
And you, even yourself, shall discontinueH8058 from your heritageH5159 that I gaveH5414 you; and I will cause you to serveH5647 your enemiesH341 in the landH776 whichH834 you knowH3045 not: for you have kindledH6919 a fireH784 in my anger,H639 which shall burnH3344 for ever.H5769
5
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 CursedH779 be the manH1397 that trustsH982 in man,H120 and makes fleshH1320 his arm,H2220 and whose heartH3820 departsH5493 from the LORD.H3068
6
For he shall be like the heathH6176 in the desert,H6160 and shall not seeH7200 whenH3588 goodH2896 comes;H935 but shall inhabitH7931 the parchedH2788 places in the wilderness,H4057 in a saltH4420 landH776 and not inhabited.H3427
7
BlessedH1288 is the manH1397 that trustsH982 in the LORD,H3068 and whose hopeH4009 the LORDH3068 is.
8
For he shall be as a treeH6086 plantedH8362 by the waters,H4325 and that spreadsH7971 out her rootsH8328 by the river,H3105 and shall not seeH7200 whenH3588 heatH2527 comes,H935 but her leafH5929 shall be green;H7488 and shall not be carefulH1672 in the yearH8141 of drought,H1226 neitherH3808 shall ceaseH4185 from yieldingH6213 fruit.H6529
9
The heartH3820 is deceitfulH6121 above allH3605 things, and desperatelyH605 wicked:H605 whoH4310 can knowH3045 it?
10
I the LORDH3068 searchH2713 the heart,H3820 I tryH974 the reins,H3629 even to giveH5414 every manH376 according to his ways,H1870 and according to the fruitH6529 of his doings.H4611
11
As the partridgeH7124 sitsH1716 on eggs,H1000 and hatchesH3205 them not; so he that getsH6213 riches,H6239 and not by right,H4941 shall leaveH5800 them in the middleH2677 of his days,H3117 and at his endH319 shall be a fool.H5036
12
A gloriousH3519 highH4791 throneH3678 from the beginningH7223 is the placeH4725 of our sanctuary.H4720
13
O LORD,H3068 the hopeH4723 of Israel,H3478 allH3605 that forsakeH5800 you shall be ashamed,H954 and they that departH3249 from me shall be writtenH3789 in the earth,H776 becauseH3588 they have forsakenH5800 the LORD,H3068 the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 waters.H4325
14
HealH7495 me, O LORD,H3068 and I shall be healed;H7495 saveH3467 me, and I shall be saved:H3467 for you are my praise.H8416
15
Behold,H2009 they sayH559 to me, WhereH346 is the wordH1697 of the LORD?H3068 let it comeH935 now.H4994
16
As for me, I have not hastenedH213 from being a pastorH7462 to followH310 you: neitherH3808 have I desiredH183 the woefulH605 day;H3117 you know:H3045 that which cameH4161 out of my lipsH8193 was rightH5227 beforeH5227 H6440 you.
17
Be not a terrorH4288 to me: you are my hopeH4268 in the dayH3117 of evil.H7451
18
Let them be confoundedH954 that persecuteH7291 me, but let not me be confounded:H954 let them be dismayed,H2865 but let not me be dismayed:H2865 bringH935 on them the dayH3117 of evil,H7451 and destroyH7665 them with doubleH4932 destruction.H7670
19
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 to me; GoH1980 and standH5975 in the gateH8179 of the childrenH1121 of the people,H5971 wherebyH834 the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 comeH935 in, and by the whichH834 they goH3318 out, and in allH3605 the gatesH8179 of Jerusalem;H3389
20
And sayH559 to them, HearH8085 you the wordH1697 of the LORD,H3068 you kingsH4428 of Judah,H3063 and allH3605 Judah,H3063 and allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of Jerusalem,H3389 that enterH935 in by theseH428 gates:H8179
21
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 Take heedH8104 to yourselves,H5315 and bearH5375 noH408 burdenH4853 on the sabbathH7676 day,H3117 nor bringH935 it in by the gatesH8179 of Jerusalem;H3389
22
NeitherH3808 carryH3318 forthH3318 a burdenH4853 out of your housesH1004 on the sabbathH7676 day,H3117 neitherH3808 doH6213 you anyH3605 work,H4399 but hallowH6942 you the sabbathH7676 day,H3117 as I commandedH6680 your fathers.H1
23
But they obeyedH8085 not, neitherH3808 inclinedH5186 their ear,H241 but made their neckH6202 stiff,H7185 that they might not hear,H8085 norH1115 receiveH3947 instruction.H4148
24
And it shall comeH1961 to pass, ifH518 you diligently listenH8085 to me, saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 to bringH935 in noH1115 burdenH4853 through the gatesH8179 of thisH2063 cityH5892 on the sabbathH7676 day,H3117 but hallowH6942 the sabbathH7676 day,H3117 to doH6213 noH1115 workH4399 therein;
25
Then shall there enterH935 into the gatesH8179 of thisH2063 cityH5892 kingsH4428 and princesH8269 sittingH3427 on the throneH3678 of David,H1732 ridingH7392 in chariotsH7393 and on horses,H5483 they, and their princes,H8269 the menH376 of Judah,H3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of Jerusalem:H3389 and thisH2088 cityH5892 shall remainH3427 for ever.H5769
26
And they shall comeH935 from the citiesH5892 of Judah,H3063 and from the placesH5439 aboutH5439 Jerusalem,H3389 and from the landH776 of Benjamin,H1144 and from the plain,H8219 and from the mountains,H2022 and from the south,H5045 bringingH935 burntH5930 offerings, and sacrifices,H2077 and meat offerings,H4503 and incense,H3828 and bringingH935 sacrifices of praise,H8426 to the houseH1004 of the LORD.H3068
27
But ifH518 you will not listenH8085 to me to hallowH6942 the sabbathH7676 day,H3117 and not to bearH5375 a burden,H4853 even enteringH935 in at the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 on the sabbathH7676 day;H3117 then will I kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the gatesH8179 thereof, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of Jerusalem,H3389 and it shall not be quenched.H3518
