Isaías 17

1The burden^H4853 of Damascus^H1834. Behold, Damascus^H1834 is taken away^H5493 from being a city^H5892, and it shall be a ruinous^H4654 heap^H4596. 2The cities^H5892 of Aroer^H6177 are forsaken^H5800; they shall be for flocks^H5739, which shall lie down^H7257, and none shall make them afraid^H2729. 3And the fortress^H4013 shall cease^H7673 from Ephraim^H669, and the kingdom^H4467 from Damascus^H1834, and the remnant^H7605 of Syria^H758; they shall be as the glory^H3519 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478, saith^H5002 Jehovah^H3068 of hosts^H6635. 4And it shall come to pass in that day^H3117, that the glory^H3519 of Jacob^H3290 shall be made thin^H1809, and the fatness^H4924 of his flesh^H1320 shall wax lean^H7329. 5And it shall be as when the harvestman^H7105 gathereth^H622 the standing grain^H7054, and his arm^H2220 reapeth^H7114 the ears^H7641; yea, it shall be as when one gleaneth^H3950 ears^H7641 in the valley^H6010 of Rephaim^H7497. 6Yet there shall be left^H7604 therein gleanings^H5955, as the shaking^H5363 of an olive-tree^H2132, two^H8147 or three^H7969 berries^H1620 in the top^H7218 of the uppermost bough^H534, four^H702 or five^H2568 in the outmost branches^H5585 of a fruitful^H6509 tree, saith^H5002 Jehovah^H3068, the God^H430 of Israel^H3478. 7In that day^H3117 shall men^H120 look^H8159 unto their Maker^H6213, and their eyes^H5869 shall have respect^H7200 to the Holy^H6918 One of Israel^H3478. 8And they shall not look^H8159 to the altars^H4196, the work^H4639 of their hands^H3027; neither shall they have respect^H7200 to that which their fingers^H676 have made^H6213, either the Asherim^H842, or the sun-images^H2553. 9In that day^H3117 shall their strong^H4581 cities^H5892 be as the forsaken^H5800 places^H2793 in the wood^H534 and on the mountain top, which^H6440 were forsaken^H5800 from before the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478; and it shall be a desolation^H8077. 10For thou hast forgotten^H7911 the God^H430 of thy salvation^H3468, and hast not been mindful^H2142 of the rock^H6697 of thy strength^H4581; therefore thou plantest^H5193 pleasant^H5282 plants^H5193, and settest^H2232 it with strange^H2114 slips^H2156. 11In the day^H3117 of thy planting^H5194 thou hedgest^H7735 it in, and in the morning^H1242 thou makest thy seed^H2233 to blossom^H6524; but the harvest^H7105 fleeth away^H5067 in the day^H3117 of grief^H2470 and of desperate^H605 sorrow^H3511. 12Ah^H1945, the uproar^H1995 of many^H1995 peoples^H5971, that roar^H1993 like the roaring^H1993 of the seas^H3220; and the rushing^H7588 of nations^H3816, that rush like the rushing^H7582 of mighty^H3524 waters^H4325! 13The nations^H3816 shall rush^H7582 like the rushing^H7588 of many^H7227 waters^H4325: but he shall rebuke^H1605 them, and they shall flee^H5127 far off^H4801, and shall be chased^H7291 as the chaff^H4671 of the mountains^H2022 before^H6440 the wind^H7307, and like the whirling dust^H1534 before^H6440 the storm^H5492. 14At eventide^H6256, behold, terror^H1091; and before the morning^H1242 they are not. This is the portion^H2506 of them that despoil^H8154 us, and the lot^H1486 of them that rob^H962 us.
