1 Hear 8085 ye the word 1697 which the LORD 3068 speaketh 1696 unto you, O house 1004 of Israel 3478:
2 Thus saith 559 the LORD 3068, Learn 3925 not the way 1870 of the heathen 1471, and be not dismayed 2865 at the signs 226 of heaven 8064; for the heathen 1471 are dismayed 2865 at them 1992.
3 For the customs 2708 of the people 5971 are vain 1892: for one cutteth 3772 a tree 6086 out of the forest 3293, the work 4639 of the hands 3027 of the workman 2796, with the axe 4621.
4 They deck 3302 it with silver 3701 and with gold 2091; they fasten 2388 it with nails 4548 and with hammers 4717, that it move 6328 not.
5 They are upright 4749 as the palm tree 8560, but speak 1696 not: they must needs 5375 be borne 5375, because they cannot go 6805. Be not afraid 3372 of them; for they cannot do evil 7489, neither also is it in them to do good 3190.
6 Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD 3068; thou art great 1419, and thy name 8034 is great 1419 in might 1369.
7 Who would not fear 3372 thee, O King 4428 of nations 1471? for to thee doth it appertain 2969: forasmuch as among all the wise 2450 men of the nations 1471, and in all their kingdoms 4438, there is none like unto thee.
8 But they are altogether 259 brutish 1197 and foolish 3688: the stock 6086 is a doctrine 4148 of vanities 1892.
9 Silver 3701 spread into plates 7554 is brought 935 from Tarshish 8659, and gold 2091 from Uphaz 210, the work 4639 of the workman 2796, and of the hands 3027 of the founder 6884: blue 8504 and purple 713 is their clothing 3830: they are all the work 4639 of cunning 2450 men.
10 But the LORD 3068 is the true 571 God 430, he is the living 2416 God 430, and an everlasting 5769 king 4428: at his wrath 7110 the earth 776 shall tremble 7493, and the nations 1471 shall not be able to abide 3557 his indignation 2195.
11 Thus 1836 shall ye say 560 unto them, The gods 426 that have not 3809 made 5648 the heavens 8065 and the earth 778, even they shall perish 7 from the earth 772, and from under 8460 these 429 heavens 8065.
12 He hath made 6213 the earth 776 by his power 3581, he hath established 3559 the world 8398 by his wisdom 2451, and hath stretched out 5186 the heavens 8064 by his discretion 8394.
13 When he uttereth 5414 his voice 6963, there is a multitude 1995 of waters 4325 in the heavens 8064, and he causeth the vapours 5387 to ascend 5927 from the ends 7097 of the earth 776; he maketh 6213 lightnings 1300 with rain 4306, and bringeth forth 3318 the wind 7307 out of his treasures 214.
14 Every man 120 is brutish 1197 in his knowledge 1847: every founder 6884 is confounded 3001 by the graven image 6459: for his molten image 5262 is falsehood 8267, and there is no breath 7307 in them.
15 They are vanity 1892, and the work 4639 of errors 8595: in the time 6256 of their visitation 6486 they shall perish 6.
16 The portion 2506 of Jacob 3290 is not like them: for he is the former 3335 of all things; and Israel 3478 is the rod 7626 of his inheritance 5159: The LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 is his name 8034.
17 Gather up 622 thy wares 3666 out of the land 776, O inhabitant 3427 of the fortress 4692.
18 For thus saith 559 the LORD 3068, Behold, I will sling 7049 out the inhabitants 3427 of the land 776 at this once 6471, and will distress 6887 them, that they may find 4672 it so.
19 Woe 188 is me for my hurt 7667! my wound 4347 is grievous 2470: but I said 559, Truly 389 this is a grief 2483, and I must bear 5375 it.
20 My tabernacle 168 is spoiled 7703, and all my cords 4340 are broken 5423: my children 1121 are gone forth 3318 of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth 5186 my tent 168 any more, and to set up 6965 my curtains 3407.
21 For the pastors 7462 are become brutish 1197, and have not sought 1875 the LORD 3068: therefore they shall not prosper 7919, and all their flocks 4830 shall be scattered 6327.
22 Behold, the noise 6963 of the bruit 8052 is come 935, and a great 1419 commotion 7494 out of the north 6828 country 776, to make 7760 the cities 5892 of Judah 3063 desolate 8077, and a den 4583 of dragons 8577.
23 O LORD 3068, I know 3045 that the way 1870 of man 120 is not in himself: it is not in man 376 that walketh 1980 to direct 3559 his steps 6806.
24 O LORD 3068, correct 3256 me, but with judgment 4941; not in thine anger 639, lest thou bring me to nothing 4591.
25 Pour out 8210 thy fury 2534 upon the heathen 1471 that know 3045 thee not, and upon the families 4940 that call 7121 not on thy name 8034: for they have eaten up 398 Jacob 3290, and devoured 398 him, and consumed 3615 him, and have made his habitation 5116 desolate 8074.
