1Woe^H1945 to her that is rebellious^H4754 and polluted^H1351! to the oppressing^H3238 city^H5892! 2She obeyed^H8085 not the voice^H6963; she received^H3947 not correction^H4148; she trusted^H982 not in Jehovah^H3068; she drew not near^H7126 to her God^H430. 3Her princes^H8269 in the midst^H7130 of her are roaring^H7580 lions^H738; her judges^H8199 are evening^H6153 wolves^H2061; they leave nothing^H1633 till the morrow^H1242. 4Her prophets^H5030 are light^H6348 and treacherous^H900 persons^H582; her priests^H3548 have profaned^H2490 the sanctuary^H6944, they have done violence^H2554 to the law^H8451. 5Jehovah^H3068 in the midst^H7130 of her is righteous^H6662; he will not do^H6213 iniquity^H5766; every^H1242 morning^H1242 doth he bring^H5414 his justice^H4941 to light^H216, he faileth^H5737 not; but the unjust^H5767 knoweth^H3045 no shame^H1322. 6I have cut off^H3772 nations^H1471; their battlements^H6438 are desolate^H8074; I have made their streets^H2351 waste^H2717, so that none passeth by^H5674; their cities^H5892 are destroyed^H6658, so that there is no man^H376, so that there is no inhabitant^H3427. 7I said^H559, Only fear^H3372 thou me; receive^H3947 correction^H4148; so her dwelling^H4583 shall not be cut off^H3772, according^H834 to all that I have appointed^H6485 concerning her: but^H403 they rose early^H7925 and corrupted^H7843 all their doings^H5949. 8Therefore wait^H2442 ye for me, saith^H5002 Jehovah^H3068, until the day^H3117 that I rise up^H6965 to the prey^H5706; for my determination^H4941 is to gather^H622 the nations^H1471, that I may assemble^H6908 the kingdoms^H4467, to pour^H8210 upon them mine indignation^H2195, even all my fierce^H2740 anger^H639; for all the earth^H776 shall be devoured^H398 with the fire^H784 of my jealousy^H7068. 9For then will I turn^H2015 to the peoples^H5971 of a pure^H1305 language^H8193, that they may all call^H7121 upon the name^H8034 of Jehovah^H3068, to serve^H5647 him with one^H259 consent^H7926. 10From beyond^H5676 the rivers^H5104 of Ethiopia^H3568 my suppliants^H6282, even the daughter^H1323 of my dispersed^H6327, shall bring^H2986 mine offering^H4503. 11In that day^H3117 shalt thou not be put to shame^H954 for all thy doings^H5949, wherein thou hast transgressed^H6586 against me; for then I will take away^H5493 out of the midst^H7130 of thee thy proudly^H1346 exulting^H5947 ones, and thou shalt no more^H3254 be haughty^H1361 in my holy^H6944 mountain^H2022. 12But I will leave^H7604 in the midst^H7130 of thee an afflicted^H6041 and poor^H1800 people^H5971, and they shall take refuge^H2620 in the name^H8034 of Jehovah^H3068. 13The remnant^H7611 of Israel^H3478 shall not do^H6213 iniquity^H5766, nor speak^H1696 lies^H3577; neither shall a deceitful^H8649 tongue^H3956 be found^H4672 in their mouth^H6310; for they shall feed^H7462 and lie down^H7257, and none shall make them afraid^H2729. 14Sing^H7442, O daughter^H1323 of Zion^H6726; shout^H7321, O Israel^H3478; be glad^H8055 and rejoice^H5937 with all the heart^H3820, O daughter^H1323 of Jerusalem^H3389. 15Jehovah^H3068 hath taken away^H5493 thy judgments^H4941, he hath cast out^H6437 thine enemy^H341: the King^H4428 of Israel^H3478, even Jehovah^H3068, is in the midst^H7130 of thee; thou shalt not fear^H7200 evil^H7451 any more. 16In that day^H3117 it shall be said^H559 to Jerusalem^H3389, Fear^H3372 thou not; O Zion^H6726, let not thy hands^H3027 be slack^H7503. 17Jehovah^H3068 thy God^H430 is in the midst^H7130 of thee, a mighty^H1368 one who will save^H3467; he will rejoice^H7797 over thee with joy^H8057; he will rest^H2790 in his love^H160; he will joy^H1523 over thee with singing^H7440. 18I will gather^H622 them that sorrow^H3013 for the solemn assembly^H4150, who were of thee; to whom the burden^H4864 upon her was a reproach^H2781. 19Behold, at that time^H6256 I will deal^H6213 with all them that afflict^H6031 thee; and I will save^H3467 that which is lame^H6760, and gather^H6908 that which was driven away^H5080; and I will make^H7760 them a praise^H8416 and a name^H8034, whose shame^H1322 hath been in all the earth^H776. 20At that time^H6256 will I bring^H935 you in, and at that time^H6256 will I gather^H6908 you; for I will make^H5414 you a name^H8034 and a praise^H8416 among all the peoples^H5971 of the earth^H776, when I bring back^H7725 your captivity^H7622 before your eyes^H5869, saith^H559 Jehovah^H3068.
