the lender, so with the borrower;As with the creditor, so with the debtor.3The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled;For the Lord hath spoken this word.4The earth fainteth and fadeth away,The world faileth and fadeth away,The lofty people of the earth do fail.5The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof;Because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statute,Broken the everlasting covenant.6Therefore hath a curse devoured the earth,And they that dwell therein are found guilty;Therefore the inhabitants of the earth waste away,And men are left few.7The new wine faileth, the vine fadeth;All the merry-hearted do sigh.8The mirth of tabrets ceaseth,The noise of them that rejoice endeth,The joy of the harp ceaseth.9They drink not wine with a song;Strong drink is bitter to them that drink it.10Broken down is the city of wasteness;Every house is shut up, that none may come in.11There is a crying in the streets amidst the wine;All joy is darkened,The mirth of the land is gone.12In the city is left desolation,And the gate is smitten unto ruin.13For thus shall it be in the midst of the earth, among the peoples,As at the beating of an olive-tree,As at the gleanings when the vintage is done.14Those yonder lift up their voice, they sing for joy;For the majesty of the Lord they shout from the sea:15'Therefore glorify ye the Lord in the regions of light,Even the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, in the isles of the sea.' 16From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs: 'Glory to the righteous.'But I say: I waste away, I waste away, woe is me!The treacherous deal treacherously;Yea, the treacherous deal very treacherously.17Terror, and the pit, and the trap, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.18And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the terror shall fall into the pit;And he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the trap;For the windows on high are opened,And the foundations of the earth do shake;19The earth is broken, broken down,The earth is crumbled in pieces,The earth trembleth and tottereth;20The earth reeleth to and fro like a drunken man,And swayeth to and fro as a lodge;And the transgression thereof is heavy upon it,And it shall fall, and not rise again.21And it shall come to pass in that day,That the Lord will punish the host of the high heaven on high,And the kings of the earth upon the earth.22And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the dungeon,And shall be shut up in the prison,And after many days shall they be punished.23Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed;For the Lord of hosts will reign in mount Zion,And in Jerusalem, and before His elders shall be Glory. 25O Lord, Thou art my God,I will exalt Thee, I will praise Thy name,For Thou hast done wonderful things;Even counsels of old, in faithfulness and truth.2For Thou hast made of a city a heap,Of a fortified city a ruin;A castle of strangers to be no city,It shall never be built.3Therefore shall the strong people glorify Thee,The city of the terrible nations shall fear Thee.4For Thou hast been a stronghold to the poor,A stronghold to the needy in his distress,A refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat;For the blast of the terrible ones was as a storm against the wall.5As the heat in a dry place, Thou didst subdue the noise of strangers;As the heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones was brought low. 6And in this mountain will the Lord of hosts make unto all peoplesA feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees,Of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.7And He will destroy in this mountainThe face of the covering that is cast over all peoples,And the veil that is spread over all nations.8He will swallow up death for ever;And the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces;And the reproach of His people will He take away from off all the earth;For the Lord hath spoken it. 9And it shall be said in that day:'Lo, this is our God,For whom we waited, that He might save us;This is the Lord, for whom we waited,We will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.'10For in this mountain will the hand of the Lord rest,And Moab shall be trodden down in his place,Even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill.11And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof,As he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim,His pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands.12And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low,And bring to the ground, even to the dust. 26In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah:We have a strong city;Walls and bulwarks doth He appoint for salvation.2Open ye the gates,That the righteous nation that keepeth faithfulness may enter in.3The mind stayed on Thee Thou keepest in perfect peace;Because it trusteth in Thee.4Trust ye in the Lord for ever,For the Lord is God, an everlasting Rock.5For He hath brought down them that dwell on high,The lofty city, laying it low, laying it low even to the ground,Bringing it even to the dust.6The foot shall tread it down,Even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy. 7The way of the just is straight;Thou, Most Upright, makest plain the path of the just.8Yea, in the way of Thy judgments,O Lord, have we waited for Thee;To Thy name and to Thy memorial is the desire of our soul.9With my soul have I desired Thee in the night;Yea, with my spirit within me have I sought Thee earnestly;For when Thy judgments are in the earth,The inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.10Let favour be shown to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness;In the land of uprightness will he deal wrongfully,And will not behold the majesty of the Lord. 11Lord, Thy hand was lifted up, yet they see not;They shall see with shame Thy zeal for the people;Yea, fire shall devour Thine adversaries.12Lord, Thou wilt establish peace for us;For Thou hast indeed wrought all our works for us.13O Lord our God, other lords beside Thee have had dominion over us;But by Thee only do we make mention of Thy name.14The dead live not, the shades rise not;To that end hast Thou punished and destroyed them,And made all their memory to perish.15Thou hast gotten Thee honour with the nations, O Lord,Yea, exceeding great honour with the nations;Thou art honoured unto the farthest ends of the earth. 16Lord, in trouble have they sought Thee,Silently they poured out a prayer when Thy chastening was upon them.17Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery,Is in pain and crieth out in her pangs;So have we been at Thy presence, O Lord.18We have been with child, we have been in pain,We have as it were brought forth wind;We have not wrought any deliverance in the land;Neither are the inhabitants of the world come to life.19Thy dead shall live, my dead bodies shall arise—Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust—For Thy dew is as the dew of light,And the earth shall bring to life the shades. 20Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers,And shut thy doors about thee;Hide thyself for a little moment,Until the indignation be overpast.21For, behold, the Lord cometh forth out of His placeTo visit upon the inhabitants of the earth their iniquity;The earth also shall disclose her blood,And shall no more cover her slain.
27In that day the Lord with His sore and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the slant serpent, and leviathan the tortuous serpent; and He will slay the dragon that is in the sea.
2In that day sing ye of her:'A vineyard of foaming wine!'3I the Lord do guard it,I water it every moment;Lest Mine anger visit it,I guard it night and day.4Fury is not in Me;Would that I were as the briers and thorns in flame!I would with one step burn it altogether.5Or else let him take hold of My strength,That he may make peace with Me; yea, let him make peace with Me.6In days to come shall Jacob take root,Israel shall blossom and bud;And the face of the world shall be filled with fruitage. 7Hath He smitten him as He smote those that smote him?Or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by Him?8In full measure, when Thou sendest her away, Thou dost contend with her;He hath removed her with His rough blast in the day of the east wind.9Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be expiated,And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin:When he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in pieces,So that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.10For the fortified city is solitary,A habitation abandoned and forsaken, like the wilderness;There shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down,And consume the branches thereof11When the boughs thereof are withered,They shall be broken off;The women shall come, and set them on fire;For it is a people of no understanding;Therefore He that made them will not have compassion upon them,And He that formed them will not be gracious unto them. 12And it shall come to pass in that day,That the Lord will beat off [His fruit]From the flood of the River unto the Brook of Egypt,And ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
