gltv@Isaiah:1:1 @ The vision of the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

gltv@Isaiah:1:2 @ Hear, O heavens, and listen, O earth! For Jehovah has spoken: I have nursed and brought up sons, but they have rebelled against Me.

gltv@Isaiah:1:3 @ The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's manger, but Israel does not know; My people have not understood.

gltv@Isaiah:1:4 @ Woe, sinful nation, a people heavy with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, sons who corrupt! They have forsaken Jehovah; they have scorned the Holy One of Israel. They are estranged backward.

gltv@Isaiah:1:5 @ Why will you be stricken any more? Will you continue the revolt? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart is faint.

gltv@Isaiah:1:6 @ From the sole of the foot even to the head, no soundness is in it; only a wound and a stripe and a fresh blow; they have not been closed, nor bound up; nor was it softened with oil.

gltv@Isaiah:1:7 @ Your land is a desolation; your cities burned with fire. Foreigners devour your land before you; and behold, ruin, as overthrown by foreigners.

gltv@Isaiah:1:8 @ And the daughter of Zion is left a booth in a vineyard, like a hut in a cucumber field, like a besieged city.

gltv@Isaiah:1:9 @ Except Jehovah of hosts had left a remnant for us, a few, we would be as Sodom; we would be as Gomorrah.

gltv@Isaiah:1:10 @ Hear the word of Jehovah, rulers of Sodom. Listen to the law of our God, people of Gomorrah.

gltv@Isaiah:1:11 @ What good to Me are your many sacrifices, says Jehovah? I am full of burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fattened cattle, and the blood of bulls; nor do I delight in the blood of lambs and he goats.

gltv@Isaiah:1:12 @ When you come to see My face, who has required this at your hand, to trample My courts?

gltv@Isaiah:1:13 @ Do not add to bringing vain sacrifice; its incense is an abomination to Me. I cannot endure the new moon and sabbath, the going to meeting, and the evil assembly.

gltv@Isaiah:1:14 @ My soul hates your new moons and your appointed feasts. They are a burden to Me. I am weary of bearing them.

gltv@Isaiah:1:15 @ And when you spread out your hands, I will hide My eyes from you. Yea, when you multiply prayer, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.

gltv@Isaiah:1:16 @ Wash yourselves, purify yourselves. Put away the evil of your doings from My sight; stop doing evil.

gltv@Isaiah:1:17 @ Learn to do good, seek justice, reprove the oppressor, judge the orphan, strive for the widow.

gltv@Isaiah:1:18 @ Come now and let us reason together, says Jehovah: Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they are red as the crimson, they shall be like wool.

gltv@Isaiah:1:19 @ If you are willing and hear, you shall eat the good of the land.

gltv@Isaiah:1:20 @ But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of Jehovah has spoken.

gltv@Isaiah:1:21 @ Oh how the faithful city has become a harlot! She was full of justice; righteousness lodged in it. But now, murderers!

gltv@Isaiah:1:22 @ Your silver has become dross; your wine is diluted with water.

gltv@Isaiah:1:23 @ Your princes are rebellious and companions of thieves. Everyone loves a bribe, and is pursuing rewards. They do not judge the orphan, nor does the cause of the widow come to them,

gltv@Isaiah:1:24 @ and says the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Alas! I will be eased of My foes, and avenge Myself of My enemies.

gltv@Isaiah:1:25 @ And I will return My hand on you, and refine your dross, as with lye, and take away all your alloy.

gltv@Isaiah:1:26 @ And I will return your judges as at the first; and your advisors, as at the beginning; then you shall be called the city of righteousness, a faithful town.

gltv@Isaiah:1:27 @ Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and her returning ones with righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:1:28 @ And the ruin of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together. And those who forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.

gltv@Isaiah:1:29 @ For they shall be ashamed of the trees which you lusted after; and you shall be ashamed of the gardens that you have chosen.

gltv@Isaiah:1:30 @ For you shall be like a tree whose leaf fades, and like a garden that has no water in it.

gltv@Isaiah:1:31 @ And the strong shall be for tow, and his work for a spark; and they shall burn both together; and no one shall quench them.

gltv@Isaiah:2:1 @ The word that the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:

gltv@Isaiah:2:2 @ And it shall be in the last days, the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow into it.

gltv@Isaiah:2:3 @ And many people shall go and say, Come and let us go up to the mount of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob. And He will teach from His ways, and we will walk in His paths. For out of Zion the law will go forth, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:2:4 @ And He shall judge among the nations and shall rebuke many people. And they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, nor shall they learn war any more.

gltv@Isaiah:2:5 @ Oh house of Jacob, come and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:2:6 @ For You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, and are fortunetellers like the Philistines. And they clap hands with children of foreigners.

gltv@Isaiah:2:7 @ And his land is filled with silver and gold. There is no end of his treasures. And his land is full of horses; his chariots also do not have an end.

gltv@Isaiah:2:8 @ And his land is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.

gltv@Isaiah:2:9 @ And man bowed down; and man was humbled, but You do not lift them up.

gltv@Isaiah:2:10 @ Enter into the rock and hide in the dust from fear of Jehovah, and from the glory of His majesty.

gltv@Isaiah:2:11 @ The lofty eyes of man shall be humbled, and the pride of men shall be bowed down; but Jehovah, He alone, will be exalted in that day.

gltv@Isaiah:2:12 @ For the day of Jehovah of Hosts shall be on all the proud and lofty ones, and on all that is lifted up; and it will be abased;

gltv@Isaiah:2:13 @ and against all Lebanon's cedars, high and lifted up; and against all the oaks of Bashan;

gltv@Isaiah:2:14 @ and against all the high mountains; and against all the lifted up hills;

gltv@Isaiah:2:15 @ and against every tall tower; and against every fortified wall;

gltv@Isaiah:2:16 @ and against all the ships of Tarshish; and on all pleasurable craft.

gltv@Isaiah:2:17 @ And the pride of man shall be humbled; and the loftiness of men shall be abased; and Jehovah alone will be exalted in that day.

gltv@Isaiah:2:18 @ And the idols shall completely vanish.

gltv@Isaiah:2:19 @ And they shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, for fear of Jehovah, and from the glory of His majesty; when He rises up to make the earth quake.

gltv@Isaiah:2:20 @ ln that day a man shall throw his silver and his golden idols which they made for him to worship, to the hole of the burrower and to the bats;

gltv@Isaiah:2:21 @ to go into the crevices of the rocks, and into the clefts of the cliffs, from the dread of Jehovah, and from the glory of His majesty; when He rises up to make the earth quake.

gltv@Isaiah:2:22 @ Cease yourself from man, whose breath is in his nostril, for in what is he to be esteemed?

gltv@Isaiah:3:1 @ For, behold, the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, takes away the stay and the staff from Jerusalem and from Judah; the whole stay of bread and the whole stay of water;

gltv@Isaiah:3:2 @ the mighty man, and the man of war; the judge and the prophet; and the diviner and the elder;

gltv@Isaiah:3:3 @ the commander of fifty and the exalted of face; the counselor and the skilled craftsman; and the expert enchanter.

gltv@Isaiah:3:4 @ And I will give young boys to be their rulers, and caprices shall rule over them.

gltv@Isaiah:3:5 @ And the people shall be crushed, man against man, and a man on his neighbor. The boy will be insolent against the elder, and the despised against the honorable.

gltv@Isaiah:3:6 @ When a man shall take hold of his brother, at his father's house, saying, A cloak! Come, you be a ruler for is; let this ruin be under your hand.

gltv@Isaiah:3:7 @ In that day he shall swear, saying, I will not be one who binds up; for there is no bread nor a cloak in my house; you shall not make me a ruler of the people.

gltv@Isaiah:3:8 @ For Jerusalem has stumbled, and Judah has fallen; because their tongue and their deeds toward Jehovah are to rebel against the eyes of His glory.

gltv@Isaiah:3:9 @ The look of their faces witnesses against them; they have declared their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to their soul! For they have dealt evil to themselves.

gltv@Isaiah:3:10 @ Say to the righteous that it is well; for they shall eat of the fruit of their doings.

gltv@Isaiah:3:11 @ Woe to the wicked! For the evil, the doing of his hand will be done to him.

gltv@Isaiah:3:12 @ As for My people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over him. Oh My people, your rulers cause you to go astray, and they swallow the way of your paths.

gltv@Isaiah:3:13 @ Jehovah stands up to plead His cause, and stands up to judge the peoples.

gltv@Isaiah:3:14 @ Jehovah will enter into judgment with the elders of His people, and their kings. For you have eaten up the vineyard, the plunder of the poor is in your houses.

gltv@Isaiah:3:15 @ What do you mean that you crush My people, and grind the faces of the poor, says the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts?

gltv@Isaiah:3:16 @ And Jehovah says, Because the daughters of Zion are proud, and walk with stretched out necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and make a tinkling with their feet;

gltv@Isaiah:3:17 @ So Jehovah will make the crown of the daughter of Zion scabby; and Jehovah will lay their secret parts bare.

gltv@Isaiah:3:18 @ In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of the ankle bracelets, and the headbands, and the crescents,

gltv@Isaiah:3:19 @ the pendants, and the bracelets, and the veils;

gltv@Isaiah:3:20 @ the headdresses, and the leg ornaments, and the sashes, and the houses of the soul, and the amulets;

gltv@Isaiah:3:21 @ the rings and nose jewels;

gltv@Isaiah:3:22 @ the festal apparel and the outer garments; and the mantles, and the purses;

gltv@Isaiah:3:23 @ the mirrors and the fine linen; and the turbans and the veils.

gltv@Isaiah:3:24 @ And it shall be, instead of a smell of perfume, there shall be an odor of decay. And instead of a sash, a rope. And instead of well set hair, baldness. And instead of a rich robe, a girding of sackcloth; burning instead of beauty.

gltv@Isaiah:3:25 @ Your men shall fall by the sword, and your mighty in the war.

gltv@Isaiah:3:26 @ And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she shall sit bare on the ground.

gltv@Isaiah:4:1 @ And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread and wear our own clothing, only let your name be called on us; collect our shame.

gltv@Isaiah:4:2 @ In that day the Branch of Jehovah will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth for pride and for glory for the survivors of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:4:3 @ And it shall be, he remaining in Zion, and he who is left in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, every one who is written among the living in Jerusalem;

gltv@Isaiah:4:4 @ when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and the blood of Jerusalem shall have been rinsed away from its midst by a spirit of judgment, and by a spirit of burning.

gltv@Isaiah:4:5 @ Then Jehovah will create a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night, over all the site of Mount Zion, and over her assemblies; for on all the glory will be a canopy.

gltv@Isaiah:4:6 @ And there shall be a booth for a shade from the heat, and for a refuge, and for a hiding place from storm and rain.

gltv@Isaiah:5:1 @ Now I will sing to my Beloved a song of my Beloved concerning His vineyard: My Beloved has a vineyard in a fruitful horn.

gltv@Isaiah:5:2 @ And He dug it, and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in its midst, and also hewed out a wine vat in it. And He waited for it to produce grapes, but it produced rotten grapes.

gltv@Isaiah:5:3 @ And now, O people of Jerusalem and men of Judah, I ask you, judge between Me and My vineyard.

gltv@Isaiah:5:4 @ What more could have been done to My vineyard that I have not done in it? Who knows? I waited for it to yield grapes, but it yielded rotten grapes.

gltv@Isaiah:5:5 @ And now I will make known to you what I will do then to My vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it will be burned. I will breach its wall, and it will become a trampling ground.

gltv@Isaiah:5:6 @ And I will lay it waste; it shall not be pruned nor hoed; but briers and thorns shall come up. And I will command the clouds from raining rain on it.

gltv@Isaiah:5:7 @ For the vineyard of Jehovah of Hosts is the house of Israel, and the man of Judah is His delightful plant. And He waited for justice, but behold, bloodshed; for righteousness, but behold, a cry!

gltv@Isaiah:5:8 @ Woe to those touching house to house, bringing near field to field until the end of space, and you are made to dwell alone in the middle of the land!

gltv@Isaiah:5:9 @ Jehovah of Hosts has sworn in my ears, If not, many houses shall be a waste, big and beautiful ones without inhabitant.

gltv@Isaiah:5:10 @ Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and the seed of a homer shall yield an ephah.

gltv@Isaiah:5:11 @ Woe to those who rise early in the morning to go after fermented drink, tarrying in the twilight while wine inflames them!

gltv@Isaiah:5:12 @ And the lyre and the harp, the timbrel and flute, and wine are at their feasts; but they do not regard the work of Jehovah; yea, they do not see the work of His hands.

gltv@Isaiah:5:13 @ For this My people go into exile without knowledge, and his men of glory into famine; and his multitude is parched with thirst.

gltv@Isaiah:5:14 @ So Sheol has enlarged its appetite, and opened its mouth without measure, and her glory and her multitude, and her uproar, he who exults in her, shall come down in it.

gltv@Isaiah:5:15 @ And man is bowed down, and man is humbled, and the eyes of the proud are humbled.

gltv@Isaiah:5:16 @ But Jehovah of Hosts is exalted in judgment, and God the Holy One is proven holy in righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:5:17 @ Then the lambs shall feed as in their pasture, and strangers shall eat the waste places of the fatlings.

gltv@Isaiah:5:18 @ Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as with ropes of a cart;

gltv@Isaiah:5:19 @ who say, Let Him hurry and hasten His work, so that we may see; and let the purpose of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, so that we may know!

gltv@Isaiah:5:20 @ Woe to those who say to evil, good; and to good, evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

gltv@Isaiah:5:21 @ Woe to those wise in their own eyes, and discerning in their own sight!

gltv@Isaiah:5:22 @ Woe to those mighty to drink wine, and brave men to mix fermented drink;

gltv@Isaiah:5:23 @ who justify the wicked for a bribe, and turn aside the righteousness of the righteous from him!

gltv@Isaiah:5:24 @ So, as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and the flame burns up the chaff; their root shall be like rottenness, and their blossoms shall go up like dust, because they have cast away the law of Jehovah of Hosts; and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:5:25 @ On account of this the anger of Jehovah is kindled on His people, and He has stretched out His hand against them, and has struck them; and the mountains quaked, and their dead bodies were as filth in the midst of the streets. In all this His anger does not turn away, but His hand is stretched out still.

gltv@Isaiah:5:26 @ And He will lift up a banner to distant nations, and will hiss to them from the ends of the earth; and, behold, it shall come with swift speed!

gltv@Isaiah:5:27 @ None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none will slumber nor sleep; nor shall the waist cloth of their loins be opened, nor the thong of their sandals broken;

gltv@Isaiah:5:28 @ whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent; their horses' hooves shall appear as flint, and their wheels like a hurricane.

gltv@Isaiah:5:29 @ Their roaring shall be like a lion; they shall roar like young lions. Yea, they roar and seize the prey, and carry it away; and no one shall deliver.

gltv@Isaiah:5:30 @ And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea; when one looks to the land, and lo, darkness! Distress! And light shall be darkened by its clouds.

gltv@Isaiah:6:1 @ In the year that king Uzziah died, then I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up. And His train filled the temple.

gltv@Isaiah:6:2 @ Above it stood the seraphs. Each one had six wings; with two he covered his face; and with two he covered his feet; and with two he flew.

gltv@Isaiah:6:3 @ And one cried to the other and said, Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory!

gltv@Isaiah:6:4 @ And the doorposts shook from the voice of the one who cried; and the house was filled with smoke.

gltv@Isaiah:6:5 @ Then I said, Woe is me! For I am cut off; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I live amongst a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Isaiah:6:6 @ Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal in his hand, snatched with tongs from the altar.

gltv@Isaiah:6:7 @ And he touched it on my mouth, and said, See, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin is covered.

gltv@Isaiah:6:8 @ And I heard the voice of Jehovah, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us? Then I said, Behold me. Send me!

gltv@Isaiah:6:9 @ And He said, Go and tell this people, Hearing you hear, but do not understand; and seeing you see, but do not know.

gltv@Isaiah:6:10 @ Make the heart of this people fat, and make his ears heavy, and shut his eyes, that he not see with his eyes, and hear with his ears, and understand with his heart, and turn back, and one heals him.

gltv@Isaiah:6:11 @ Then I said, Until when, O Lord? And He said, Until cities lie desolate without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land is laid waste, a desolation;

gltv@Isaiah:6:12 @ and until Jehovah has sent mankind far away, and the desolation in the midst of the land is great.

gltv@Isaiah:6:13 @ But yet a tenth shall be in it, and it shall return and be consumed like the terebinth and like the oak that in being felled yet has its stump (the holy seed is its stump).

gltv@Isaiah:7:1 @ And it happened in the days of Ahaz: the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but were not able to do battle against it.

gltv@Isaiah:7:2 @ And the house of David was told, saying, Syria is allied with Ephraim, and his heart and the heart of his people shook, as the trees of the forest shake from the wind.

gltv@Isaiah:7:3 @ And Jehovah said to Isaiah, Go out to meet Ahaz, you and your son Shearjashub, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, to the highway of the Fuller's Field.

gltv@Isaiah:7:4 @ And say to him, Be on guard and be calm. Do not fear nor be timid of heart because of the two tails of these smoking firebrands, because of the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.

gltv@Isaiah:7:5 @ Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah have plotted evil against you, saying,

gltv@Isaiah:7:6 @ Let us go up against Judah and make her to dread, and break her for ourselves, and set a king in her midst, the son of Tabeal.

gltv@Isaiah:7:7 @ So says the Lord Jehovah, It shall not rise, nor shall it happen.

gltv@Isaiah:7:8 @ For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty five years Ephraim shall be broken from being a people.

gltv@Isaiah:7:9 @ And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you will not believe, surely you will not be established.

gltv@Isaiah:7:10 @ And Jehovah spoke again to Ahaz:, saying,

gltv@Isaiah:7:11 @ Ask a sign from Jehovah your God; make deep the request, or make it high above.

gltv@Isaiah:7:12 @ But Ahaz said, I will not ask, nor will I tempt Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:7:13 @ And He said, Hear now, O house of David, is it too little that you weary men, but will you also weary my God?

gltv@Isaiah:7:14 @ So, The Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold! The virgin will conceive and will bring forth a son; and she shall call His name Immanuel.

gltv@Isaiah:7:15 @ He shall eat curds and honey until He knows to refuse the evil and choose the good.

gltv@Isaiah:7:16 @ For before the boy shall know to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land that you hate will be forsaken before both her kings.

gltv@Isaiah:7:17 @ Jehovah shall bring the king of Assyria on you, and on your people, and on your father's house, days which have not come since the days Ephraim turned aside from Judah.

gltv@Isaiah:7:18 @ And it shall be, in that day Jehovah shall hiss for the fly that is in the end of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee in the land of Assyria.

gltv@Isaiah:7:19 @ And they shall come, and they shall all rest in the steep ravines, and in the clefts of the rocks, and in all the thorn bushes, and in all the pastures.

gltv@Isaiah:7:20 @ In that day the Lord will shave with a razor that is hired, Beyond the River, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet, and also it shall sweep away the beard.

gltv@Isaiah:7:21 @ And it shall be in that day, a man shall keep alive a heifer of the herd, and two sheep.

gltv@Isaiah:7:22 @ And it shall be, he shall eat curds from the plenty of milk making; for everyone who is left in the land shall eat curds and honey.

gltv@Isaiah:7:23 @ And it shall be in that day, every place where there were a thousand vines worth a thousand pieces of silver, it shall be for briers and thorns.

gltv@Isaiah:7:24 @ With arrows and with the bow, he shall come there; because all the land shall be briers and thorns.

gltv@Isaiah:7:25 @ And all the hills which were hoed with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending out of the ox, and for trampling of sheep.

gltv@Isaiah:8:1 @ And Jehovah said to me, Take a big tablet and write in it with a man's pen: Make haste to plunder! Hasten to the prey!

gltv@Isaiah:8:2 @ And I took faithful witnesses to record for me, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.

gltv@Isaiah:8:3 @ And I drew near the prophetess. And she conceived, and bore a son. Then Jehovah said to me, Call his name, Hurry, plunder! Eagerly plunder!

gltv@Isaiah:8:4 @ For before the boy knows to cry, My father, or, My mother, the riches of Damascus and the plunder of Samaria shall be taken away before the king of Assyria.

gltv@Isaiah:8:5 @ Jehovah also spoke to me again, saying,

gltv@Isaiah:8:6 @ Because this people has refused the waters of Shiloah that flow softly, and rejoices in Rezin and Remaliah's son,

gltv@Isaiah:8:7 @ Behold, therefore the Lord also brings on them the channels of the River, mighty and many: the king of Assyria and all his glory. And he shall come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks.

gltv@Isaiah:8:8 @ And he shall pass through Judah. He shall overflow and go over. He shall reach to the neck; and his wings will be stretching out, filling the breadth of your land, O Immanuel.

gltv@Isaiah:8:9 @ O peoples, suffer evil, and be broken! And listen, all from the far places of the earth; gird yourselves, and be broken. Gird yourselves and be broken!

gltv@Isaiah:8:10 @ Counsel a counsel, and it is frustrated; speak a word, and it shall not rise; for God is with us.

gltv@Isaiah:8:11 @ For so Jehovah spoke to me with a strong hand, and taught me against walking in the way of this people, saying,

gltv@Isaiah:8:12 @ Do not say, A conspiracy, to everything of which this people says, A conspiracy! And do not fear its fear, and do not dread.

gltv@Isaiah:8:13 @ Sanctify Jehovah of Hosts Himself, and let Him be your fear; and let Him be your dread.

gltv@Isaiah:8:14 @ And He shall be for a sanctuary, and for a stone of stumbling, and for a rock of falling to the two houses of Israel; for a trap and for a snare to the dweller of Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:8:15 @ And many among them shall stumble and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.

gltv@Isaiah:8:16 @ Bind up the testimony, seal the law among My disciples.

gltv@Isaiah:8:17 @ And I will wait on Jehovah, who hides His face from the house of Jacob; and I will look for Him.

gltv@Isaiah:8:18 @ Behold, I and the children whom Jehovah has given to me are for signs and wonders in Israel from Jehovah of Hosts, who dwells in Mount Zion.

gltv@Isaiah:8:19 @ And when they say to you, Seek to the mediums, and to wizards who peep and mutter; should not a people seek to its God, than for the living to seek to the dead?

gltv@Isaiah:8:20 @ To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no dawn to them!

gltv@Isaiah:8:21 @ And they shall pass through it, hard pressed and hungry. And it shall be, they shall be hungry; he will rave and curse his king and his God, and face upward.

gltv@Isaiah:8:22 @ And they shall look to the land. And, behold, trouble and darkness and gloom of anguish; and they are driven to darkness.

gltv@Isaiah:9:1 @ Yet there shall not be gloom for which anguish is to her; as in the former time when He degraded the land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali, so afterwards He will glorify the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.

gltv@Isaiah:9:2 @ The people who walk in darkness have seen a great light. The ones who dwell in the land of the shadow of death, light has shone on them.

gltv@Isaiah:9:3 @ You have not multiplied the nation; You have not increased the joy. They rejoice before You as in the joy of, harvest, as men shout when they divide the plunder.

gltv@Isaiah:9:4 @ For You have broken his burdensome yoke and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his taskmaster, as in the day of Midian.

gltv@Isaiah:9:5 @ For every boot of the trampler is with commotion, and a coat rolled in blood shall be burning fuel for the fire.

gltv@Isaiah:9:6 @ For a Child is born; to us a Son is given; and the government is on His shoulder; and His name is called Wonderful, Counselor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.

gltv@Isaiah:9:7 @ There is no end to the increase of His government and of peace on the throne of David, and on His kingdom, to order it, and to sustain it with justice and with righteousness, from now and forever. The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts will do this.

gltv@Isaiah:9:8 @ The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it has fallen into Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:9:9 @ And all the people shall know, Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria, who say in pride and greatness of heart,

gltv@Isaiah:9:10 @ Bricks have fallen, but we will build with cut stones; the sycamores are cut down, but we will use cedars instead.

gltv@Isaiah:9:11 @ And Jehovah will set up Rezin's foes against him, and spur on his enemies;

gltv@Isaiah:9:12 @ Syrians in front, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with all the mouth. In all this His anger does not turn away, but His hand is still stretched out.

gltv@Isaiah:9:13 @ For the people do not turn to Him who strikes them, and they do not seek Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Isaiah:9:14 @ And Jehovah will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.

gltv@Isaiah:9:15 @ The elder and the exalted of face; he is the head. And the prophet who teaches lies; he is the tail.

gltv@Isaiah:9:16 @ For this people's leaders led them astray, and its guided ones are swallowed up.

gltv@Isaiah:9:17 @ For this the Lord shall not rejoice over their young men, nor have pit on their orphans and widows; for everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer; and every mouth speaks foolishness. In all this His anger does not turn away, but His hand is still stretched out.

gltv@Isaiah:9:18 @ For wickedness burns like a fire; it shall devour the briers and thorns and shall kindle the thickets of the forest; and they shall roll upward, like the going up of smoke.

gltv@Isaiah:9:19 @ The land is scorched by the wrath of Jehovah of Hosts, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire; no man shall spare his brother.

gltv@Isaiah:9:20 @ And he shall cut off on the right hand, yet be hungry. And he shall eat on the left, but not be satisfied. Each man shall eat the flesh of his own arm;

gltv@Isaiah:9:21 @ Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; together they are against Judah. In all this His anger does not turn away, but His hand is still stretched out.

gltv@Isaiah:10:1 @ Woe to those who decree decrees of injustice, and writers who write toil;

gltv@Isaiah:10:2 @ to keep back the poor from judgment, and to steal justice from the poor of My people; that widows may be their prey; that they may rob orphans.

gltv@Isaiah:10:3 @ And what will you do in the day of visitation and of destruction? It comes from far away. To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your glory?

gltv@Isaiah:10:4 @ Surely, he will grovel under the prisoners, and they will fall under the slain. In all this His anger does not turn away, but His hand is still stretched out.

gltv@Isaiah:10:5 @ Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger! And My fury is the staff in their hand.

gltv@Isaiah:10:6 @ I will send him against an ungodly nation, and against the people of My wrath. I will command him to plunder, and to strip off spoil, and to trample them like the mud of the streets.

gltv@Isaiah:10:7 @ Yet he does not purpose this, nor does his heart think so. For it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.

gltv@Isaiah:10:8 @ For he says, Are not my commanders all like kings?

gltv@Isaiah:10:9 @ Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is Hamath not like Arpad? Is Samaria not like Damascus?

gltv@Isaiah:10:10 @ As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols (for their carved images excelled Jerusalem's and Samaria's);

gltv@Isaiah:10:11 @ shall I not do to Jerusalem and her idols as I have done to Samaria and her idols?

gltv@Isaiah:10:12 @ And it will be, when the Lord has broken off all His work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will visit on the fruit of the proud heart of the king of Assyria, and on the glory of his lofty eyes.

gltv@Isaiah:10:13 @ For he says, I have worked by the strength of my hand and by my wisdom; for I am wise. And I take away the borders of peoples, and have robbed their treasures. And like a mighty one, I subdue inhabitants.

gltv@Isaiah:10:14 @ And my hand has found the riches of the people. Like a nest, I also have gathered all the earth, as forsaken eggs are gathered. And there was not one moving a wing, or opening a mouth, or one chirping.

gltv@Isaiah:10:15 @ Shall the axe glorify itself over him chopping with it? Or shall the saw magnify itself over him moving it? As if a rod could wave those who lift it. As if a staff could raise what is not wood!

gltv@Isaiah:10:16 @ So the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, shall send leanness among his fat ones. And under His glory He will kindle a burning like the burning of fire.

gltv@Isaiah:10:17 @ And the Light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it shall burn and devour his thorns and briers in one day.

gltv@Isaiah:10:18 @ And He shall consume the glory of his forest and his fruitful field, even from soul to flesh; and it shall be as a sick man melts away.

gltv@Isaiah:10:19 @ And the rest of the trees of the forest shall be few, so that a boy might write them.

gltv@Isaiah:10:20 @ And it shall be in that day, the remnant of Israel, and the escaped ones from the house of Jacob, shall not any more lean on him who struck him. But they will truly lean on Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:10:21 @ The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.

gltv@Isaiah:10:22 @ For though Your people Israel is like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of it shall return; a determined end, overflowing with righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:10:23 @ For the Lord Jehovah of Hosts is making a full end, even ordained, in the midst of all the land.

gltv@Isaiah:10:24 @ So the Lord Jehovah of Hosts says this: Oh My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria. He shall strike you with the rod, and he shall lift up his staff against you in the way of Egypt.

gltv@Isaiah:10:25 @ But yet a little while, and the fury is finished; and My anger shall be over their destruction.

gltv@Isaiah:10:26 @ And Jehovah of Hosts shall stir up a whip on him, according to the striking of Midian at the rock Oreb; and as His rod was on the sea, and He lifted it up in the way of Egypt.

gltv@Isaiah:10:27 @ And it shall be in that day, his burden shall turn away from on your shoulder, and his yoke from your neck; and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

gltv@Isaiah:10:28 @ He has come to Aiath; he has passed to Migron; he has left his baggage at Michmash.

gltv@Isaiah:11:1 @ And a Shoot goes out from the stump of Jesse, and a Branch will bear fruit out of his roots.

gltv@Isaiah:11:2 @ And the Spirit of Jehovah shall rest on Him; He will have the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and power, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:11:3 @ And He is made to breathe in the fear of Jehovah. But He shall not judge by the seeing of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears.

gltv@Isaiah:11:4 @ But He shall judge the poor in righteousness, and shall decide rightly for the meek of the earth. And He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and He shall slay the wicked with the breath of His lips.

gltv@Isaiah:11:5 @ And righteousness shall be the encircler of His loins, and faithfulness the encircler of His reins.

gltv@Isaiah:11:6 @ And the wolf shall live with the lamb; and the leopard shall lie with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little boy shall lead them.

gltv@Isaiah:11:8 @ And the infant shall play on the hole of the asp; yea, the weaned child shall put his hand on the viper's den.

gltv@Isaiah:11:9 @ They shall not do evil, nor destroy in all My holy mountain. For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of Jehovah, as the waters cover the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:11:10 @ And it shall be in that day, the Root of Jesse stands as a banner of peoples; nations shall seek to Him; and His resting place shall be glory.

gltv@Isaiah:11:11 @ And it shall be in that day, the Lord shall again set His hand, the second time, to recover the remnant of His people that remains, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Ethiopia, and from Persia, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the coasts of the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:19:19 @ Then an altar to Jehovah shall be in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to Jehovah at its border.

gltv@Isaiah:19:20 @ And it shall be for a sign and for a witness to Jehovah of Hosts in the land of Egypt. For they shall cry to Jehovah because of the oppressors; and He shall send them a deliverer, even a great one, and will deliver them.

gltv@Isaiah:19:21 @ And Jehovah shall be known to Egypt. Egypt shall know Jehovah in that day. And they shall offer sacrifice and offering, and vow a vow to Jehovah, and repay it.

gltv@Isaiah:19:22 @ And Jehovah shall strike Egypt. He shall strike and heal. Then they shall return to Jehovah, and He shall hear them, and shall heal them.

gltv@Isaiah:19:23 @ In that day there shall be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria. And Assyria shall come into Egypt; and Egypt into Assyria; and Egypt shall serve with Assyria.

gltv@Isaiah:19:24 @ In that day Israel shall be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth,

gltv@Isaiah:19:25 @ whom Jehovah of Hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be My people Egypt, and Assyria, the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.

gltv@Isaiah:20:1 @ In the year Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and fought against Ashdod, and took it;

gltv@Isaiah:20:2 @ at that time Jehovah spoke by the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loosen the sackcloth from your loins, and take your shoe off from your foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.

gltv@Isaiah:20:3 @ And Jehovah said, Just as My servant has walked naked and barefoot three years (a sign and a wonder on Egypt and on Ethiopia)

gltv@Isaiah:20:4 @ so shall the king of Assyria lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Ethiopia, young and old; naked and barefoot, and with uncovered buttocks; to the nakedness of Egypt.

gltv@Isaiah:20:5 @ And they shall be afraid and ashamed of their hope Ethiopia, and of their glory Egypt.

gltv@Isaiah:20:6 @ And he who lives in this coast shall say in that day, Behold, this has become of our hope to which we fled for help there, to be delivered from before the king of Assyria; and, How shall we escape?

gltv@Isaiah:21:1 @ The burden of the desert of the sea: As tempests in the Negeb pass, it comes from the desert from a terrifying land.

gltv@Isaiah:21:2 @ A harsh vision is revealed to me; the deceiver deals deceitfully, and the plunderer plunders. Go up, O Elam! Besiege, O Media! I have caused all her sighing to cease.

gltv@Isaiah:21:3 @ Because of this my loins are filled with pain; pangs have taken hold on me like the pangs of a travailing woman. I am bowed from hearing; I am troubled from seeing.

gltv@Isaiah:21:4 @ My heart wanders; terror overwhelms me; He has turned the twilight of my pleasure into trembling.

gltv@Isaiah:21:5 @ Prepare the table; watch in the watchtower; eat, drink; rise up, rulers, and anoint the shield.

gltv@Isaiah:21:6 @ For so the Lord has said to me: Go, set a watchman; he will declare what he sees.

gltv@Isaiah:21:7 @ And he sees a chariot, a couple of horsemen; a chariot of an ass; a chariot of a camel; and let him bow attentively, very attentively.

gltv@Isaiah:21:8 @ And he cried, A lion! My lord, I always stand on my watchtower by day; and I am stationed at my post all the nights.

gltv@Isaiah:21:9 @ And, behold, here comes a chariot of a man, a pair of horses. And he answered and said, Babylon has fallen, has fallen! And He has smashed the cut images of her gods to the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:21:10 @ Oh my threshing, and the grain of my floor! That which I have heard of Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, I have told to you.

gltv@Isaiah:21:11 @ The burden of Dumah: He calls to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?

gltv@Isaiah:21:12 @ The watchman says, The morning comes, and also night. If you would inquire, inquire. Come! Return!

gltv@Isaiah:21:13 @ The burden of Arabia: You shall stay in the forest of Arabia, O traveling companies of Dedanites.

gltv@Isaiah:21:14 @ The people of the land of Tema bring water to him who is thirsty; they went to meet the fugitive with his bread.

gltv@Isaiah:21:15 @ For they fled from before swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the press of battle.

gltv@Isaiah:21:16 @ For so the Lord has said to me, Within a year, as the years of a hireling, all the glory of Kedar shall be ended,

gltv@Isaiah:21:17 @ and the rest of the number of the archers, the warriors of the sons of Kedar, shall be few. For Jehovah God of Israel has spoken.

gltv@Isaiah:22:2 @ Crashings fill the noisy city, the joyous city. Your slain ones are not slain by the sword, nor dead in battle.

gltv@Isaiah:22:3 @ All your rulers fled together; they were bound without the bow; all found in you were bound together; they have fled from afar.

gltv@Isaiah:22:4 @ On account of this I said, look away from me; I will weep bitterly; do not hurry to comfort me over the ruin of the daughter of my people.

gltv@Isaiah:22:5 @ for it is a day of trouble, and of trampling down, and of perplexity, by the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, in the valley of vision; digging down a wall, and crying to the mountain.

gltv@Isaiah:22:6 @ And Persia carried the quiver with a chariot of a man and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.

gltv@Isaiah:22:7 @ And it happened; your choicest valleys were full of chariots; and the horsemen surely set in order at the gate.

gltv@Isaiah:22:8 @ And he removed Judah's covering; and you looked in that day to the armor of the house of the forest.

gltv@Isaiah:22:9 @ You have also seen the breaks in the city of David, that they are many; and you gathered the waters of the lower pool.

gltv@Isaiah:22:10 @ And you have counted the houses of Jerusalem; and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.

gltv@Isaiah:22:11 @ And you made a reservoir between the walls, for the water of the old pool. But you have not looked to its Maker, nor did you see its Former from long ago.

gltv@Isaiah:22:12 @ And in that day the Lord Jehovah of Hosts called to weeping and mourning; and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth.

gltv@Isaiah:22:13 @ Then, lo, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and slaughtering sheep; eating flesh and drinking wine, saying, Eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!

gltv@Isaiah:22:14 @ And Jehovah of Hosts revealed in my ears, Surely this iniquity shall not be covered for you until you die, says the Lord Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Isaiah:22:15 @ So says the Lord Jehovah of Hosts, Go! Go to this treasurer, to Shebna who is over the house.

gltv@Isaiah:22:16 @ What is to you here? And who is here to you, that you have carved a tomb for yourself here, as one having cut out his tomb on high, having carved out a home for himself in the rock?

gltv@Isaiah:22:17 @ Behold, Jehovah hurls you with a hurling, O man, and grasps you with a grasping.

gltv@Isaiah:22:18 @ Whirling, He will whirl you like a ball, into a land wide of hands. You shall die there, and there are the chariots of your glory, the shame of your lord's house.

gltv@Isaiah:22:19 @ And I will drive you from your position, and he will pull you from your station.

gltv@Isaiah:22:20 @ And in that day it shall be, even I will call to My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah.

gltv@Isaiah:22:21 @ And I will clothe him with your robe and will fasten your sash on him. And I will give your authority into his hand. And he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

gltv@Isaiah:22:22 @ And the key of the house of David I will lay on his shoulder, so that he opens, and no one shuts; and he shuts, and no one opens.

gltv@Isaiah:22:23 @ And I will drive him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house.

gltv@Isaiah:22:24 @ And they shall hang on him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the offshoots, all small vessels, from vessels of cups even to all vessels of jars.

gltv@Isaiah:22:25 @ In that day, says Jehovah of Hosts, the nail that is driven in the sure place shall be removed, and be cut down, and fall. And the burden that was on it shall be cut off. Jehovah has spoken.

gltv@Isaiah:23:1 @ The burden of Tyre: Howl, ships of Tarshish! For it is ruined, without house, without entrance. It is revealed to them from the land of Kittim.

gltv@Isaiah:23:2 @ Be still, inhabitants of the coast, trader of Sidon crossing the sea; they have filled you.

gltv@Isaiah:23:3 @ And by great waters, the seed of Sihor and the harvest of the river Nile was her revenue; and she a mart of nations.

gltv@Isaiah:23:4 @ Be ashamed, Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the strength of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, I have not nourished young men nor raised up virgins.

gltv@Isaiah:23:5 @ As the report comes to Egypt, so they shall be grieved at the report of Tyre.

gltv@Isaiah:23:6 @ Pass over Tarshish; howl, people of the coast!

gltv@Isaiah:23:7 @ Is this your exulting city from days of her old age? Her own feet carry it far away to stay.

gltv@Isaiah:23:8 @ Who has purposed this against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are rulers, whose traders are the weighty of the earth?

gltv@Isaiah:23:9 @ Jehovah of Hosts has purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring all the honored of the earth into contempt.

gltv@Isaiah:23:10 @ Pass through your land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no more strength.

gltv@Isaiah:23:11 @ He stretched His hand over the sea; He shook kingdoms. Jehovah has made a decree against the merchant city, to destroy its forts.

gltv@Isaiah:23:12 @ And He said, You shall rejoice no more, oppressed one, virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, cross over to Cyprus, even there is no rest to you.

gltv@Isaiah:23:13 @ Behold, the land of the Chaldeans! This people did not exist! Assyria founded it for those who live in the desert. They set up their siege towers; they stripped its palaces. They made it a ruin.

gltv@Isaiah:23:14 @ Howl, ships of Tarshish! For your fortress is ruined.

gltv@Isaiah:23:15 @ And it shall be in that day that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. At the end of seventy years, it will be as the song of a harlot to Tyre.

gltv@Isaiah:23:16 @ Take a harp; go about the city, O forgotten harlot. Do well to play; make many songs, that you may be remembered.

gltv@Isaiah:23:17 @ And it will be, after the end of seventy years, Jehovah will visit Tyre; and she shall return to her hire, and will fornicate with all the kingdoms of the earth, on the face of the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:23:18 @ And her goods and her wages shall be holiness to Jehovah; it shall not be hoarded nor stored; for her goods shall be for those who dwell before Jehovah, to eat enough, and for a choice covering.

gltv@Isaiah:24:1 @ Lo, Jehovah empties the land and makes it bare, and distorts its face, and scatters its inhabitants.

gltv@Isaiah:24:2 @ And as it is with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with the master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor.

gltv@Isaiah:24:3 @ The land shall completely be emptied and utterly stripped, for Jehovah has spoken this word.

gltv@Isaiah:24:4 @ The land mourns and languishes; the world droops and languishes; the proud people of the earth droop.

gltv@Isaiah:24:5 @ And the earth is profaned under its inhabitants, because they transgress laws and violate a statute, and break the everlasting covenant.

gltv@Isaiah:24:6 @ On account of this a curse has devoured the land; and they who live in it are held guilty. For this the dwellers of the land are consumed, and few men are left.

gltv@Isaiah:24:7 @ The new wine has failed; the vine droops; all the merry-hearted sigh.

gltv@Isaiah:24:8 @ The joy of timbrels ceases; the noise of those who revel ends; the joy of the harp ceases.

gltv@Isaiah:24:9 @ They shall not drink wine with a song; fermented drink shall be bitter to those who drink it.

gltv@Isaiah:24:10 @ The city of shame is broken down; every house is shut, that no one may enter.

gltv@Isaiah:24:11 @ A crying over the wine is in the streets; all joy is darkened; the gladness in the land is carried away.

gltv@Isaiah:24:12 @ Desolation is remaining in the city, and a ruin; the gate is battered.

gltv@Isaiah:24:13 @ For it is thus in the midst of the land, among the peoples, it shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as gleanings when the grape harvest is completed.

gltv@Isaiah:24:14 @ They lift up their voice; they sing for the majesty of Jehovah; they cry aloud from the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:24:15 @ On account of this, glorify Jehovah in the flames, the name of Jehovah God of Israel, in the coasts of the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:24:16 @ We have heard songs from the end of the earth, Honor to the Righteous. But I said, Leanness to me! Leanness to me! Woe to me! Traitors betray, even perfidy; traitors betray!

gltv@Isaiah:24:17 @ Dread, and the pit, and a snare are upon you, dweller of the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:24:18 @ And it shall be, he who flees from the sound of dread shall fall into the pit. And he who comes up out of the middle of the pit shall be taken in the snare. For the windows from on high are opened, and the earth's foundations quake.

gltv@Isaiah:24:19 @ The earth is breaking, breaking! The earth is crashing, crashing! The earth is tottering, tottering.

gltv@Isaiah:24:20 @ Like a drunkard, the earth is staggering, staggering! And it rocks to and fro like a hut. And its trespass is heavy on it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

gltv@Isaiah:24:21 @ And it shall be in that day, Jehovah shall punish the army of the high place on high, and on the kings of the land on the land.

gltv@Isaiah:24:22 @ And they will be gathered, a gathering of prisoners in a dungeon. And they shall be shut up in a prison; and after many days they will be visited.

gltv@Isaiah:24:23 @ Then the moon shall blush, and the sun shall be ashamed, when Jehovah of Hosts shall reign in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem; and before His elders is His glory.

gltv@Isaiah:25:1 @ O Jehovah, You are my God. I will exalt You; I will thank Your name; for You have done a wonderful thing: counsels from afar; faithful faithfulness.

gltv@Isaiah:25:2 @ Because You have made a heap from a city, a fortified city into a ruin; a citadel of foreigners not to be a city, not to be built, to forever.

gltv@Isaiah:25:3 @ For this the mighty people glorify You, the city of the ruthless nations shall fear You.

gltv@Isaiah:25:4 @ For You are a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from storm, a shadow from heat; because the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall.

gltv@Isaiah:25:5 @ You shall lay low the noise of foreigners, like the heat in a dry place, the heat with the shadow of cloud; the shouting of the terrifying ones shall be laid low.

gltv@Isaiah:25:6 @ And Jehovah of Hosts shall make a feast of fat things for all the peoples in this mountain; a feast of wine on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, refined wine on the lees.

gltv@Isaiah:25:7 @ And He will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering which covers all people, and the veil that is woven over all nations.

gltv@Isaiah:25:8 @ He will swallow up death in victory! And the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from all faces. And He shall reprove the reproach of His people from all the earth; for Jehovah has spoken

gltv@Isaiah:25:9 @ And one shall say in that day, Behold, this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us. This is Jehovah; we have waited for Him; we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.

gltv@Isaiah:25:10 @ For the hand of Jehovah shall rest in this mountain; and Moab shall be trampled under Him, even as straw is trampled in the water of a dung pit.

gltv@Isaiah:25:11 @ And He shall spread His hands in his midst, as he who swims strokes to swim. And He shall lay low his pride with the skill of His hands.

gltv@Isaiah:25:12 @ And He shall bow down the fortress of the height of your walls; He will lay low, touch to the earth, even to the dust.

gltv@Isaiah:26:1 @ In that day this song shall be sung in the land of Judah: A strong city is ours; He sets up salvation as our walls and rampart.

gltv@Isaiah:26:2 @ Open the gates, and the righteous nation shall come in, keeping faithfulness.

gltv@Isaiah:26:3 @ You will keep in perfect peace the mind stayed on You, for he trusts in You.

gltv@Isaiah:26:4 @ Trust in Jehovah forever, for in Jah Jehovah is everlasting strength.

gltv@Isaiah:26:5 @ For He bows the dwellers on high; He lays low the lofty city; He lays it low to the ground; He makes it touch even to the dust.

gltv@Isaiah:26:6 @ The foot shall trample it, the feet of the poor, steps of the weak.

gltv@Isaiah:26:7 @ The path for the just is uprightness. Upright One, level the track of the just.

gltv@Isaiah:26:8 @ Yea, Jehovah, in the path of Your judgments we awaited You; for Your name and for Your memory is the desire of our soul.

gltv@Isaiah:26:9 @ With my soul I desire You in the night; yea, with my spirit within me I diligently seek You. For when Your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:26:10 @ The wicked finds favor; he does not learn righteousness; he deals perversely in the land of honesty, and does not see the majesty of Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:26:11 @ Jehovah, Your hand is high; they do not see; they see, and are ashamed of the zeal of the people. Yea, the fire of Your foes devours them.

gltv@Isaiah:26:12 @ Jehovah, You will ordain peace for us; for also You have worked all our works for us.

gltv@Isaiah:26:13 @ Jehovah our God, masters beside You have governed us; only in You we will mention Your name.

gltv@Isaiah:26:14 @ Dead ones do not live; departed spirits do not rise; because of this You visited and destroyed them, and caused all memory of them to perish.

gltv@Isaiah:26:15 @ You have added to the nation, Jehovah; You have added to the nation, You are glorified; You have extended all the ends of the land.

gltv@Isaiah:26:16 @ Jehovah, they visited You in distress; they poured out a whisper; Your chastening was to them.

gltv@Isaiah:26:17 @ As a pregnant woman draws near to bear, she writhes and cries out in her pangs. So are we before You, Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:26:18 @ We conceived; we writhe; as it were, we gave birth to wind. We have not worked salvation for the earth; and the world's inhabitants have not fallen.

gltv@Isaiah:26:19 @ Your dead ones shall live, my dead body, they shall rise up. Awake and sing, dust dwellers; for the dew of lights is your dew; and the earth shall cast out departed spirits.

gltv@Isaiah:26:20 @ Come, My people, go in your rooms and shut your doors behind you. Hide for a little moment, until the fury passes.

gltv@Isaiah:26:21 @ For, behold, Jehovah comes out of His place to visit his iniquity on the dweller of the earth. The earth shall also reveal her blood, and shall no more cover over her slain ones.

gltv@Isaiah:27:1 @ In that day Jehovah shall visit the sea monster, the darting serpent, with His great and fierce and strong sword; even on the sea monster, the twisting serpent; and He shall slay the monster that is in the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:27:2 @ In that day sing to it, A vineyard of desire;

gltv@Isaiah:27:3 @ I, Jehovah, keep it; I will water it every moment, that no one punish it; I will guard it night and day.

gltv@Isaiah:27:4 @ Fury is not in Me. Who will give Me briers and thorns in the battle? I will step through it; I would burn it at once.

gltv@Isaiah:27:5 @ Or will he lay hold of My strength that he may make peace with Me? Let him make peace with Me.

gltv@Isaiah:27:6 @ Those who come to Jacob, He shall make take root. Israel shall blossom and bud and fill the face of the world with fruit.

gltv@Isaiah:27:7 @ As the striking of His striker, did He strike him? Or as the slaying of His slain, is he slain?

gltv@Isaiah:27:8 @ You will contend with her by driving her away, by sending her away. He shall take away by His harsh wind, in the day of the east wind.

gltv@Isaiah:27:9 @ By this, then, the iniquity of Jacob will be covered, and this is all the fruit, to take away his sin; when he makes all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in pieces; Asherahs and sun pillars shall not rise.

gltv@Isaiah:27:10 @ For the fortified city shall be lonely, a forsaken pasture, and left like a wilderness. The calf shall feed there, and he shall lie there, and eat up its branches.

gltv@Isaiah:27:11 @ When its boughs dry up, they are broken off. Women shall come and burn them, for it is a people with no understanding. On account of this His Maker shall not pity him, and His Former will not favor him.

gltv@Isaiah:27:12 @ And it shall be in that day, Jehovah shall thresh from the channel of the River to the torrent of Egypt; and you shall be gathered one by one, sons of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:27:13 @ And it shall be in that day, the great ram's horn shall be blown; and those perishing in the land of Assyria and the outcasts in the land of Egypt shall come and shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain in Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:28:1 @ Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower on the head of the fat valley of those who are overcome with wine!

gltv@Isaiah:28:2 @ Behold, the Lord is a mighty and strong one; like a hailstorm, a destroying storm; like a storm of mighty waters overflowing; He sets down to the earth by hand.

gltv@Isaiah:28:3 @ The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trampled down.

gltv@Isaiah:28:4 @ And the glorious beauty which is on the head of the fat valley shall be a fading flower, like the first ripe fig before summer which the seeing one sees; while it is yet in his hand, he swallows it.

gltv@Isaiah:28:5 @ In that day Jehovah of Hosts shall become a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty to the rest of His people,

gltv@Isaiah:28:6 @ and a spirit of justice to him who sits on the judgment seat; and for might to those turning back the battle toward the gate.

gltv@Isaiah:28:7 @ But they also have gone astray by wine, and have erred through fermented drink; priest and prophet have erred through fermented drink; they have been swallowed by wine; they strayed from fermented drink; they err in seeing; they stumble in judgment;

gltv@Isaiah:28:8 @ for all tables are full of vomit and filth, without a clean place.

gltv@Isaiah:28:9 @ Whom shall He teach knowledge? And to whom shall He explain the message? Those weaned from milk, those moving from breasts?

gltv@Isaiah:28:10 @ For precept must be on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little.

gltv@Isaiah:28:11 @ For with stammering lip and another tongue, He will speak to this people;

gltv@Isaiah:28:12 @ to whom He said, This is the rest; cause the weary to rest. Also, This is the repose. But they willed not to hear.

gltv@Isaiah:28:13 @ Yet the word of Jehovah was to them, precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they might go, and stumble, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

gltv@Isaiah:28:14 @ So hear the word of Jehovah, scornful men, rulers of this people in Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:28:15 @ Because you have said, We have cut a covenant with death; and, We have made a vision with Sheol, when the overwhelming rod passes through it will not come to us for we have made the lie our refuge, and we have hidden in falsehood.

gltv@Isaiah:28:16 @ So, the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, I place in Zion a Stone for a foundation, a tried Stone, a precious Cornerstone, a sure Foundation; he who believes shall not hurry.

gltv@Isaiah:28:17 @ And I will lay justice for a line, and righteousness for a plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of the lie; and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.

gltv@Isaiah:28:18 @ And your covenant with death shall be covered; and your vision with Sheol shall not rise up. When the overwhelming whip passes through, then you shall be for a trampling to it.

gltv@Isaiah:28:19 @ As often as it passes, it shall take you; for morning by morning it shall pass; and by day and by night, it shall only be a terror to understand the message.

gltv@Isaiah:28:20 @ For the bed is shorter than one can stretch himself on; and the cover is narrower than one can wrap himself in.

gltv@Isaiah:28:21 @ For Jehovah shall rise up, as at Mount Perazim; He shall be stirred as in the Gibeon Valley; to do His work, His strange work; and to perform His task, His alien task.

gltv@Isaiah:28:22 @ So, then, do not be mockers, that your bonds not be made strong. For I have heard from the Lord Jehovah of Hosts that a full end is decreed on all the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:28:23 @ Listen and hear My voice; pay attention and hear My word:

gltv@Isaiah:28:24 @ Does the plowman plow all day to sow? Does he open and break the clods of his ground?

gltv@Isaiah:28:25 @ When he has leveled its surface, does he not strew black cummin, and scatter cummin, and place wheat in rows, and barley in its place, and spelt in its border?

gltv@Isaiah:28:26 @ And He instructs him for the right; his God teaches him.

gltv@Isaiah:28:27 @ For black cummin is not threshed with the sledge; nor is a cartwheel turned on cummin. But black cummin is beaten out with the staff, and cummin with the rod.

gltv@Isaiah:28:28 @ Bread is crushed, but not always does one thresh it with threshing; and he drives the wheel of his cart; and his horses do not beat it small.

gltv@Isaiah:28:29 @ This also comes from Jehovah of Hosts, doing wonders in counsel, making sound wisdom great.

gltv@Isaiah:29:1 @ Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David camped. Add year on year; let feasts run their circle.

gltv@Isaiah:29:2 @ Then I will compress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and sorrow; and it shall be to Me as Ariel.

gltv@Isaiah:29:3 @ And I will camp as a circle on you, and will lay siege work on you; and I will raise up ramparts on you.

gltv@Isaiah:29:4 @ And you shall be brought low; you shall speak from the ground; and your speech shall be bowed down; and your voice shall be from the ground, like a spiritist; and your speech shall chirp out of the dust.

gltv@Isaiah:29:5 @ And the host of your strangers shall be as fine powder, and as chaff passing, the host of terrifying ones; and it will be suddenly, instantly;

gltv@Isaiah:29:6 @ you shall he visited from Jehovah of Hosts; with thunder and earthquake, and great noise, tempest and storm, and flame of devouring fire.

gltv@Isaiah:29:7 @ And the multitude of all the nations who fight against Ariel, even all battling her and compressing her and her stronghold, shall be like a dream of a night vision.

gltv@Isaiah:29:8 @ It shall even be as when a hungry one dreams; and, behold, he is eating; but when he awakes, his soul is empty. Or it shall be as when a thirsty one dreams; and, behold, he is drinking, but when he awakes, he is faint, and his soul is longing. So shall be the multitude of all the nations who fight against Mount Zion.

gltv@Isaiah:29:9 @ Wait and wonder! Blind yourselves, and be blind! They are drunk, but not with wine! They stagger, but not with fermented drink!

gltv@Isaiah:29:10 @ for Jehovah has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes. He has covered the prophets and your heads, the seers.

gltv@Isaiah:29:11 @ And the whole vision to you is like the words of a sealed hook which they give to one knowing books, saying, Please read this. Then he says, I am not able, for it is sealed.

gltv@Isaiah:29:12 @ And the hook is given to one who does not know books, saying, Please read this. Then he says, I do not know books.

gltv@Isaiah:29:13 @ And the Lord says, Because this people draws near with its mouth, and they honor Me with its lip; but its heart is far from Me, and their fear of Me is taught by the command of men;

gltv@Isaiah:29:14 @ So, behold, I am adding to do a wonders with this people, the wonder, even a wonder. For the wisdom of his wise ones shall perish, and the wit of his witty ones shall be hidden.

gltv@Isaiah:29:15 @ Woe to those who go deep to hide their purposes from Jehovah; yea, their works are in the dark; and they say, Who sees us? And, Who knows us?

gltv@Isaiah:29:16 @ Oh your perversity! Shall the former be counted as the clay? For shall the work of its maker say, He did not make me? Or shall the thing formed say to him who formed it, He does not understand?

gltv@Isaiah:29:17 @ Is it not yet a little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field; and the fruitful field shall be counted for the forest?

gltv@Isaiah:29:18 @ And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of a book; and the eyes of the blind shall see out of their gloom and out of darkness.

gltv@Isaiah:29:19 @ And the humble ones shall increase joy in Jehovah, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:29:20 @ For the terrible one is brought to nothing; and the scorner is ended; and all that watch for evil are cut off;

gltv@Isaiah:29:21 @ those who make a man sin by a word, even laying a trap for the reprover in the gate, and turn aside the just for a worthless thing.

gltv@Isaiah:29:22 @ So Jehovah says this: He who redeemed Abraham, as to the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not be ashamed now, nor shall his face become pale now.

gltv@Isaiah:29:23 @ But when he sees his children in his midst, the work of My hands, they shall sanctify My name. They shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:29:24 @ Those who erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and those who murmured shall learn the teaching.

gltv@Isaiah:30:1 @ Woe to rebellious sons, declares Jehovah, to make counsel, but not from Me; and to weave a covering web, but not of My Spirit, in order to add sin on sin;

gltv@Isaiah:30:2 @ who set out to go down to Egypt, but have not asked at My mouth, to take refuge in the stronghold of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt.

gltv@Isaiah:30:3 @ And the stronghold of Pharaoh shall become a shame to you; and relying on the shadow of Egypt shall be a disgrace.

gltv@Isaiah:30:4 @ For his rulers were in Zoan, and his ambassadors reached to Hanes.

gltv@Isaiah:30:5 @ Every one is ashamed over a people who do not profit them; they are not for a help, and not for profiting, but for a shame; yea, also for a reproach.

gltv@Isaiah:30:6 @ The burden of the beasts of the south: Into the land of trouble and constraint. The lioness and the lion are from them; the viper and fiery flying serpent. They carry their riches on the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people who cannot profit them.

gltv@Isaiah:30:7 @ And Egypt; vainly and emptily they help. So I have called to this: Their strength is to sit still.

gltv@Isaiah:30:8 @ Now come, write it before them on a tablet, and note it on a book, so that it may be for the latter day, until forever;

gltv@Isaiah:30:10 @ who say to the seers, Do not see; and to visioners, Do not have a vision for right things to us; speak smooth things to us; have a vision of trifles.

gltv@Isaiah:30:11 @ Turn aside from the way; stretch from the path; cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.

gltv@Isaiah:30:12 @ For this reason, so says the Holy One of Israel, Because of your rejection of this word, and your trust in oppression and perversity, even resting on it;

gltv@Isaiah:30:13 @ So this iniquity shall be to you as a broken section falling, like the bulging out of a high wall, the breaking of which comes suddenly, in an instant.

gltv@Isaiah:30:14 @ And its smashing is as the smashing of a potter's vessel; when broken in pieces, he has no pity; for in its breaking there is not found a shard to carry fire from the hearth, nor to skim water from a well.

gltv@Isaiah:30:15 @ For so says the Lord Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, In returning and rest you shall be saved; and in quietness and hope shall be your strength. But you were not willing.

gltv@Isaiah:30:16 @ For you said, No! For we will flee on horseback. On account of this you shall flee. Also, you say, We will ride on swift ones. On account of this, those who pursue you shall be swift.

gltv@Isaiah:30:17 @ One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one. You shall flee from the rebuke of five, until you are left like a pole on the top of the mountain, and like a sign on a hill.

gltv@Isaiah:30:18 @ And so Jehovah waits to be gracious to you. And for this He is exalted to have mercy on you; for Jehovah is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him.

gltv@Isaiah:30:19 @ For the people shall live in Zion, at Jerusalem; you shall surely cry no more. He surely will be gracious to you at the sound of your cry. When He hears, He will answer you.

gltv@Isaiah:30:20 @ And the Lord gives you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction; but your teachers shall not be hidden any more; but your eyes shall be to see your teachers.

gltv@Isaiah:30:21 @ And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, this is the way, walk in it, when you go right, or when you go left.

gltv@Isaiah:30:22 @ And you shall defile the covering of your carved images of silver; and the covering of your molten images of gold. You shall cast them out like a menstruous cloth; you shall say to it, Go away!

gltv@Isaiah:30:23 @ Then He shall give rain for your seed, with which you sow the ground. And the bread of the produce of the earth also shall be fat and plentiful. In that day your livestock shall feed in a pasture made wide.

gltv@Isaiah:30:24 @ Also, the oxen and the young asses that till the ground shall eat seasoned fodder which one winnows with the shovel and with the fork.

gltv@Isaiah:30:25 @ And on every high mountain, and on every high hill, shall be rivulets lifted up, streams of water, in a day of great slaying, when towers fall.

gltv@Isaiah:30:26 @ And the moonlight shall be like the light of the sun. And the sun's light shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day of binding up, Jehovah binding the break of His people, and healing the wound of His blow.

gltv@Isaiah:30:27 @ Behold, the name of Jehovah comes from afar; His anger burns; and is heavy as the uplifting of smoke; His lips are full of fury, and His tongue like a devouring fire.

gltv@Isaiah:30:28 @ And like an overflowing torrent, His breath shall divide to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity, and a misleading bridle on the jaws of the peoples.

gltv@Isaiah:30:29 @ The song shall be to you, as the night when the feast is sanctified, and gladness of heart, as one going with the flute, to come into the mount of Jehovah, to the Rock of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:30:30 @ And Jehovah shall make the majesty of His voice heard; and He shows His arm coming down with raging anger and flame of consuming fire, cloudburst and storm, and hailstones.

gltv@Isaiah:30:31 @ For through the voice of Jehovah, Assyria shall be crushed, the rod with which He strikes.

gltv@Isaiah:30:32 @ And every passage of the appointed staff that Jehovah causes to rest on him will be with timbrels and with harps. And in brandishing battles He fights with her.

gltv@Isaiah:30:33 @ For Topheth is ordained from yesterday. Also, it is prepared for the king; He deepened; He widened its pyre; He makes great with fire and wood. The breath of Jehovah burns in it like a torrent of brimstone.

gltv@Isaiah:31:1 @ Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and lean on horses, and trust on chariotry, because it is great; and in horsemen because they are very strong! But they do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:31:2 @ And He also is wise, and brings evil, and will not turn aside His words, but will rise against the house of evildoers, and against the help of those who work iniquity.

gltv@Isaiah:31:3 @ And Egypt is a man, and not God. And their horses are flesh, and not spirit. And Jehovah stretches out His hand, and both he who helps shall fall, and he who is helped shall fall; and they shall all cease together.

gltv@Isaiah:31:4 @ For so Jehovah has said to me: As the lion roars, even the young lion on his prey when the multitude of shepherds are gathered against him, he will not fear their voice, nor fret himself because of their noise. So Jehovah of Hosts shall come down to fight on Mount Zion, and on its hill.

gltv@Isaiah:31:5 @ As birds that fly, so Jehovah of Hosts will shield over Jerusalem; shielding and delivering, and passing over, He will save it.

gltv@Isaiah:31:6 @ Turn back to Him against whom you have made a deep revolt, sons of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:31:7 @ For in that day each shall despise his silver idols and his golden idols, which your hands have made for you; a sin.

gltv@Isaiah:31:8 @ Then Assyria shall fall by a sword, not of man; yea, a sword, not of man, shall devour him. For he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall become forced labor.

gltv@Isaiah:31:9 @ And his rock will pass away from fear; and his commanders shall tremble at the banner, declares Jehovah, whose fire is in Zion, and His furnace in Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:32:1 @ Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment.

gltv@Isaiah:32:2 @ And a man shall be a hiding place from the wind, a shelter from the tempest, as streams of water in a dry place; like the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.

gltv@Isaiah:32:3 @ And the eyes of those that see shall not be dim, and the ears of those who hear shall listen.

gltv@Isaiah:32:4 @ And the heart of the rash shall discern knowledge; and the tongue of those that stutter shall hurry to speak clear things.

gltv@Isaiah:32:5 @ The fool shall no more be called noble, and a miser will not be said to be generous.

gltv@Isaiah:32:6 @ For the fool speaks foolishness, and his heart works iniquity, to do ungodliness; and to speak error against Jehovah, to make the hungry soul empty; and he causes the drink of the thirsty to fail.

gltv@Isaiah:32:7 @ And the weapons of the miser are evil; he devises wicked plots to destroy the poor with lying words, even the needy when he speaks right.

gltv@Isaiah:33:1 @ Woe to the destroyer, and you not being destroyed; and to the betrayer, and they did not betray you! When you finish destroying, you will be destroyed; when you stop betraying, they will betray you.

gltv@Isaiah:33:2 @ O Jehovah, be gracious to us. We have hoped in You; be their arm in the mornings, our salvation also in time of distress.

gltv@Isaiah:33:3 @ At the sound of the tumult, the peoples fled; at Your exaltation, nations scattered.

gltv@Isaiah:33:4 @ And Your prey shall be gathered as the stripping locust gathers; as locusts run to and fro, he also runs about on it.

gltv@Isaiah:33:5 @ Jehovah is exalted, for He lives on high; He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:33:8 @ The highways are deserted; the path crosser ceases. He has broken the covenant; he has rejected cities; he has not respected man.

gltv@Isaiah:33:9 @ The land mourns and droops; Lebanon is ashamed; Sharon withers like a wilderness; Bashan is shaken out; also Carmel.

gltv@Isaiah:33:10 @ Now I will rise up, says Jehovah. Now I will be exalted; now I will be lifted up.

gltv@Isaiah:33:11 @ You shall conceive chaff; you shall bear stumble; your fiery breath shall devour you.

gltv@Isaiah:33:13 @ Distant ones, hear what I have done; and you near ones, know My might.

gltv@Isaiah:33:14 @ The sinners of Zion are afraid; terror has seized profane ones; who of us shall tarry with consuming fire? Who of us shall tarry with everlasting burnings?

gltv@Isaiah:34:4 @ And all the host of the heavens shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together like a scroll. Then all their host shall droop, as a leaf drooping from the vine, and as the drooping from a fig tree.

gltv@Isaiah:34:5 @ For My sword is drenched in the heavens. Behold, it shall come down on Edom, and on the people of My curse, for judgment.

gltv@Isaiah:34:6 @ A sword is to Jehovah; it is filled with blood; it is made fat with fatness, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams. For Jehovah has a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

gltv@Isaiah:34:7 @ And wild oxen shall come down with them, and bullocks with strong bulls; and their land is drenched with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.

gltv@Isaiah:34:8 @ For the day of vengeance is to Jehovah, the year of repayments for Zion's cause.

gltv@Isaiah:34:9 @ And its torrents shall be turned to pitch, and its dust to brimstone; and its land shall become burning pitch.

gltv@Isaiah:34:10 @ It shall not be put out night or day; its smoke shall rise forever. From generation to generation, it shall lie waste; no one shall pass through it forever and forever.

gltv@Isaiah:34:11 @ But the owl and the hedgehog shall possess it; and the eared owl and the raven shall live in it. And He shall stretch out on it the line of shame, and the stones of emptiness.

gltv@Isaiah:34:12 @ They shall call its nobles to a kingdom, but none shall be there; and all her rulers shall be nothing.

gltv@Isaiah:34:13 @ And thorns shall grow in her palaces, nettles and thistles in its fortresses; and it shall be a home for jackals, a court for daughters of ostriches.

gltv@Isaiah:34:14 @ The desert creatures shall also meet with the howlers; and the shaggy goat shall cry to his fellow. The screech owl shall also settle there, and find a place of rest for herself.

gltv@Isaiah:34:15 @ The snake shall nest there, and shall lay, and hatch, and shall gather in her shadow. Vultures shall also be gathered together, each with its mate.

gltv@Isaiah:35:1 @ The wilderness and dry land shall rejoice for them; and the desert shall exult and bloom like the crocus.

gltv@Isaiah:35:2 @ Blooming, it shall bloom and exult, even with joy and singing. Lebanon's glory shall be given to it, the honor of Carmel and Sharon; they shall see the glory of Jehovah, the majesty of our God.

gltv@Isaiah:35:4 @ Say to those of a hasty heart, Be strong! Do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance; with the full dealing of God, He will come and save you.

gltv@Isaiah:35:5 @ Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf opened.

gltv@Isaiah:35:6 @ Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing. For waters shall break out in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.

gltv@Isaiah:35:7 @ And the mirage shall become a pool, and the thirsty land shall become springs of waters, in the home of jackals, in its lair, and a place for the reed and rush.

gltv@Isaiah:35:8 @ And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called, The Way of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it. And it is for them, the wayfaring one; yea, fools shall not go astray.

gltv@Isaiah:35:9 @ No lion shall be there; and no violent beast shall go up on it; it shall not be found there. But redeemed ones shall walk there.

gltv@Isaiah:35:10 @ And the ransomed of Jehovah shall return and enter Zion, with singing and everlasting joy on their head; gladness and joy shall reach them; and sorrow and sighing shall flee.

gltv@Isaiah:36:5 @ I say, Are only words of the lips counsel and strength for war? Now, in whom have you trusted that you rebelled against me?

gltv@Isaiah:36:6 @ Behold, you trust on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt, which if a man leans on it, it goes into his palm and pierces it; so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.

gltv@Isaiah:36:7 @ But if you say to me, We trust in Jehovah our God; is it not He whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed? And He said to Judah and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar.

gltv@Isaiah:36:8 @ Now, then, please exchange pledges with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to set riders on them for you.

gltv@Isaiah:36:9 @ How then will you turn away the face of one commander of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust in Egypt for chariotry and horsemen?

gltv@Isaiah:36:10 @ And now have I come up against this land to destroy it without Jehovah? Jehovah said to me, Go up to this land and destroy it.

gltv@Isaiah:36:11 @ And Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the chief of the cupbearers, Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we hear. But do not speak to us in Judean, in the ears of the people on the wall.

gltv@Isaiah:36:12 @ But the chief of the cupbearers said, Has my master sent me to your master and to you to speak these words? Is it not on the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink the water of their feet with you?

gltv@Isaiah:36:13 @ And the chief of the cupbearers stood and cried with a loud voice in Judean, and said, Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

gltv@Isaiah:36:15 @ And let not Hezekiah make you trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely save us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.

gltv@Isaiah:36:16 @ Do not listen to Hezekiah. For the king of Assyria says this, Make peace with me and come out to me. Then let each eat of his own vine, and each of his own fig tree, and each drink the waters of his own well,

gltv@Isaiah:37:3 @ And they said to him, So says Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and reproach, and contempt. For sons have come to the breach and there is no strength to give birth.

gltv@Isaiah:37:4 @ It may be Jehovah your God will hear the words of the chief of the cupbearers whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to reproach the living God, and rebuke against the words which Jehovah your God has heard. And you shall lift up prayer for the remnant that is found.

gltv@Isaiah:37:24 @ By your servants, you have mocked the Lord, and said, By my many chariots I have come up to the tops of mountains, the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, its choice fir trees; and I will go to its greatest height, the forest of its fruitful field.

gltv@Isaiah:37:25 @ I have dug and drunk water; and I have dried up the streams of Egypt with the sole of my feet.

gltv@Isaiah:37:26 @ Have you not heard it from afar? I have made it from days of old, even I formed it. Now I have caused it to come, and you are to cause fortified cities to crash into heaps, ruins.

gltv@Isaiah:37:27 @ And their inhabitants were short of hand, dismayed and ashamed. They were as the field grass and the green herbs; like the grass of the housetops, even blasted before it has risen.

gltv@Isaiah:37:28 @ But I know your sitting down, and your going out, and your coming in, and your raging against Me.

gltv@Isaiah:37:29 @ Because of your raging against Me, and your arrogance has come up to My ears, even I will put My hook in your nose, and My bridle in your lips; and I will turn you back by the way you came in.

gltv@Isaiah:37:30 @ And this shall be the sign to you: You shall eat self sown grain this year; and the second year, that which springs up; and in the third year you shall sow and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

gltv@Isaiah:37:31 @ The remnant of the house of Judah that has escaped shall again take root downward, and it makes fruit upward.

gltv@Isaiah:37:32 @ For a remnant shall go out of Jerusalem, and the escaped ones out of Mount Zion; the zeal of Jehovah of Hosts shall do this.

gltv@Isaiah:37:33 @ So Jehovah says this to the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with a shield, nor pour out a siege mound on it.

gltv@Isaiah:37:34 @ He shall return by the same way that he came in, and he shall not come into this city, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:38:3 @ and said, O Jehovah, I beg You to remember now that I have walked before You in truth and with a whole heart; and I have done the good in Your eyes. And Hezekiah wept with a great weeping.

gltv@Isaiah:38:4 @ Then the word of Jehovah was to Isaiah, saying,

gltv@Isaiah:38:5 @ Go and say to Hezekiah, So says Jehovah the God of your father David, I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will add fifteen years to your days.

gltv@Isaiah:38:6 @ And I will deliver you and this city out of the king of Assyria's hand. And I will shield over this city.

gltv@Isaiah:38:11 @ I said, I shall not see Jah Jehovah in the land of the living; I shall no longer look on man with the world's inhabitants.

gltv@Isaiah:38:12 @ My generation is plucked up and carried away from me, like a shepherd's tent; I have cut off my life like the weaver. He will cut me off from the loom; from day to night You will make an end of me.

gltv@Isaiah:38:13 @ I leveled my soul until morning. Like a lion, so He shatters all my bones. From day until night You make an end of me.

gltv@Isaiah:38:14 @ Like a swift or a crane, so I chatter. I moan as the dove; my eyes look weakly to the heights, O Jehovah; it presses me down; be surety for me!

gltv@Isaiah:38:15 @ What shall I say? For He speaks to me, and He has acted. I shall go softly all my years over the bitterness of my soul.

gltv@Isaiah:38:16 @ O Lord, on them they live, and for all in them is the life of my spirit. And You heal me, and make me live.

gltv@Isaiah:38:17 @ Behold, for peace was bitter to me, most bitter; but You loved my soul from the pit of destruction; You have cast all my sins behind Your back.

gltv@Isaiah:38:18 @ For Sheol cannot thank You; death cannot praise You; the ones going down to the Pit cannot hope for Your truth.

gltv@Isaiah:38:19 @ The living, the living is the one thanking You; as I do today. The father makes known Your truth to his sons.

gltv@Isaiah:38:20 @ For Jehovah is for my salvation; and we will play my songs on stringed instruments all the days of our life, at the house of Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:38:21 @ For had said, Let them take a cake of figs and rub it on the ulcer, and he will live.

gltv@Isaiah:39:1 @ At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah For he had heard that he was ill, and was made strong.

gltv@Isaiah:39:2 @ And Hezekiah was glad because of them and let them see the house of his treasure, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the good oil, and all his weapons, and all that was found in his treasuries; there was nothing in his house or in all his kingdom that Hezekiah did not let them see.

gltv@Isaiah:39:3 @ And the prophet came to king Hezekiah and said to him, What did these men say? And from where did they come to you? And Hezekiah said, They have come from a distant land to me, from Babylon.

gltv@Isaiah:39:4 @ Then he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said, They have seen all that is in my house; there is not a thing among my treasures that I have not made them see.

gltv@Isaiah:39:5 @ And said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of Jehovah of Hosts:

gltv@Isaiah:39:6 @ Behold, days come when all that is in your house, even what your fathers have treasured up until now, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:39:7 @ And they shall take of your sons who shall issue from you, which you shall father; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

gltv@Isaiah:43:2 @ When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk in the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame kindle on you.

gltv@Isaiah:43:3 @ For I am Jehovah your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt for your atonement; Ethiopia and Seba instead of you.

gltv@Isaiah:43:23 @ You have not brought Me the lamb of your burnt offerings; even your sacrifices have not honored Me. I have not caused you to serve with an offering, nor wearied you with incense.

gltv@Isaiah:43:24 @ You have not bought calamus for Me with silver, nor have you filled Me with fat of your sacrifices; but you made Me serve by your sins; you wearied Me by your iniquities.

gltv@Isaiah:43:25 @ I, even I, am He who blots out your trespasses for My sake; and I will not remember your sins.

gltv@Isaiah:43:26 @ Cause Me to remember; let us enter into judgment together; sum up for yourself, that you may be justified.

gltv@Isaiah:43:27 @ Your first father sinned, and your interpreters transgressed against Me.

gltv@Isaiah:44:17 @ And he makes a god of the rest, his carved image; he bows to it and worships, and prays to it, and says, Deliver me, for you are my god.

gltv@Isaiah:44:19 @ And not one turns back to his heart, nor has knowledge nor discernment to say, I have burned half of it in the fire; and I also have baked bread on its coals. I have roasted flesh and have eaten it; and I have made the rest of it into an idol. Shall I bow to a product of a tree?

gltv@Isaiah:44:20 @ Feeding on ashes, a deceived heart turns him aside, and he does not deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?

gltv@Isaiah:44:21 @ Remember these, O Jacob, and Israel. For you are My servant; I have formed you; you are My servant, O Israel; you shall not forget Me.

gltv@Isaiah:44:22 @ I have blotted out your transgressions like a thick cloud; and your sins like a cloud. Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.

gltv@Isaiah:44:23 @ Sing, O heavens, for Jehovah has done it. Shout, O lower parts of the earth; burst forth into praise, O mountains. O forest and every tree in it, sing praise, because Jehovah has redeemed Jacob, and glorifies Himself in Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:44:24 @ So says Jehovah, your Redeemer and your Former from the womb; I am Jehovah who makes all things; stretching out the heavens; I alone, spreading out the earth. Who was with Me,

gltv@Isaiah:44:25 @ frustrating the signs of liars; yea, He makes diviners mad; turning wise ones backward, and making their knowledge foolish.

gltv@Isaiah:44:26 @ He confirms the word of His servant, and completes the counsel of His messengers. He says to Jerusalem, You will be filled; and to the cities of Judah, You shall be built; and, I will raise up its ruins.

gltv@Isaiah:44:27 @ He says to the deep, Be a waste! And I will dry up your rivers!

gltv@Isaiah:44:28 @ He says to Cyrus, You are My shepherd; and he shall fulfill all My will, even to say to Jerusalem, You shall be built; and to the temple, You shall be set up.

gltv@Isaiah:45:1 @ So says Jehovah to His anointed, to Cyrus, whom I have seized by his right hand, to subdue nations before him. Yea, I will open the loins of kings, to open the two leaved doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut.

gltv@Isaiah:45:2 @ I will go before you and make hills level; I will tear apart the bronze doors, and cut the iron bars in two.

gltv@Isaiah:45:3 @ And I will give you the treasures of darkness, even treasures in secret places, that you may know that I am Jehovah, who calls you by your name, the God of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:45:4 @ For My servant Jacob's sake, and for Israel My chosen, I even call you by your name. I name you, but you do not know Me.

gltv@Isaiah:45:5 @ I am Jehovah, and there is none else; there is no God except Me. I will clothe you, though you do not know Me,

gltv@Isaiah:45:6 @ that they may know from the rising of the sun, and to the sunset, that there is none besides Me; I am Jehovah, and there is none else;

gltv@Isaiah:45:7 @ forming light, and creating darkness; making peace, and creating evil.

gltv@Isaiah:45:8 @ Drop down from above, O heavens; and let the clouds pour down righteousness. Let the earth open and let salvation bear fruit; and let righteousness sprout together. I, Jehovah have created it.

gltv@Isaiah:45:9 @ Woe to him who fights with the One who formed him! A potsherd among the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to its former, What are you making? Or does your work say, He has no hands?

gltv@Isaiah:45:10 @ Woe to him who says to a father, What are you fathering? Or to the woman, What are you laboring over?

gltv@Isaiah:45:11 @ So says Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, and the One who formed him, Do you ask Me of the things to come? Do you give command to Me about My sons, and about the work of My hands?

gltv@Isaiah:45:12 @ I have made the earth, and created man on it. I stretched out the heavens with My hands; and I have set all their host in order.

gltv@Isaiah:45:13 @ I raised him up in righteousness, and have made straight all his ways. He shall build My city, and he will release My captives; not for price, nor for reward, says Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Isaiah:45:14 @ So says Jehovah, The labor of Egypt, and the goods of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come to you; and they shall be yours. They shall come after you; they shall cross in chains; and they shall bow to you; they shall plead to you. Surely God is in you, and there is none else, no other God.

gltv@Isaiah:45:15 @ Truly, You are a God who hides Himself, O God of Israel, the Savior.

gltv@Isaiah:45:16 @ They shall be ashamed, and also are disgraced, all of them. Together they go into disgrace, carvers of images.

gltv@Isaiah:45:17 @ Israel is saved in Jehovah with everlasting salvation. You shall not be ashamed nor disgraced to the forevers of eternity.

gltv@Isaiah:45:18 @ For so says Jehovah, Creator of the heavens; He is God, forming the earth and making it; He makes it stand, not creating it empty, but forming it to be inhabited. I am Jehovah, and there is none else.

gltv@Isaiah:45:19 @ I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth. I did not say to Jacob's seed, Seek Me in vain. I Jehovah speak righteousness, declaring right things.

gltv@Isaiah:45:20 @ Gather yourselves and come; draw near together, escaped ones of the nations; the ones who set up the wood of their carved image, and the ones who pray to a god who cannot save; they know nothing.

gltv@Isaiah:45:21 @ Declare and bring near; yea, let them consult together. Who has revealed this of old; who has told it from then? Is it not I, Jehovah? And there is no God other than Me; a just God and a Savior; there is none except Me.

gltv@Isaiah:45:22 @ Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.

gltv@Isaiah:45:23 @ I have sworn by Myself, the word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that to Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

gltv@Isaiah:45:24 @ He shall say, Only in Jehovah do I have righteousness and strength; to Him he comes; and they are ashamed, all who are angry with Him.

gltv@Isaiah:45:25 @ In Jehovah all of the seed of Israel shall be justified, and shall glory.

gltv@Isaiah:46:1 @ Bel has bowed; Nebo stoops; their idols are for the beast, and for the cattle; your things carried are loads; a burden for the weary.

gltv@Isaiah:46:2 @ They stoop; they bow together; they are not able to deliver the burden; and their soul has gone into captivity.

gltv@Isaiah:46:3 @ Listen to me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel; who are borne from the belly, who are lifted from the womb:

gltv@Isaiah:46:4 @ Even to old age I am He; and I will bear to gray hair; I made, and I will carry; and I will bear and deliver.

gltv@Isaiah:46:5 @ To whom will you compare and make Me equal; yea, compare Me, that we may be alike?

gltv@Isaiah:46:6 @ Those who lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver on the measuring rod; they hire a refiner and he makes it a god. They fall down; yea, they worship.

gltv@Isaiah:46:7 @ They carry it on the shoulder; they bear it and set it in its place, and it stands; it shall not move from its place. Yes, he cries to it, but it does not answer, it does not save him from his distress.

gltv@Isaiah:46:8 @ Remember this and be a man; return it on your heart, transgressors.

gltv@Isaiah:46:9 @ Remember former things from forever, for I am God, and no one else is God, even none like Me,

gltv@Isaiah:46:10 @ declaring the end from the beginning, and from the past those things which were not done, saying, My purpose shall rise; and, I will do all My desire;

gltv@Isaiah:46:11 @ calling a bird of prey from the sunrise, the man of My counsel from a far off land. Yes, I have spoken; yes, I will cause it to come; I have formed; yes, I will do it.

gltv@Isaiah:46:12 @ Listen to Me, mighty ones of heart who are far from righteousness:

gltv@Isaiah:46:13 @ I bring near My righteousness; it shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not wait; I will place salvation in Zion, My glory for Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:47:1 @ Go down and sit on the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the earth; a throne is not to the daughter of the Chaldeans; for they shall not again call you tender and delicate.

gltv@Isaiah:47:2 @ Take millstones and grind meal; uncover your veil; strip off the skirt; uncover the leg; pass over rivers.

gltv@Isaiah:47:3 @ Your nakedness shall be uncovered; yea, your shame shall be seen. I will take vengeance and I will not meet a man.

gltv@Isaiah:47:4 @ Our Redeemer; Jehovah of Hosts is His name, the Holy One of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:47:5 @ Sit in silence, and go into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans, for they shall no more call you the mistress of kingdoms.

gltv@Isaiah:47:6 @ I was angry with My people; I defiled My inheritance and gave them into your hand. You gave them no mercy; you made your yoke on the aged very heavy.

gltv@Isaiah:47:7 @ And you said, I shall be a mistress forever, until you did not set these things on your heart, and not did remember its end.

gltv@Isaiah:47:8 @ Now, then, hear this, O pleasure seeker, who lives carelessly; who says in her heart, I am, and none else is; I shall not sit as a widow, nor shall I know the loss of children.

gltv@Isaiah:47:9 @ But these two things shall suddenly come to you, in one day: loss of children, and widowhood; as complete they come on you, for your many sorceries, for the multitude of your great spells.

gltv@Isaiah:47:10 @ For you trusted in your evil; you said, No one sees me. Your wisdom and your knowledge perverts you, and you said in your heart, I am and none else is.

gltv@Isaiah:47:11 @ For this, evil shall come on you; you shall not know its origin. And mischief shall fall on you; you shall not be able to cover it. And ruin shall come on you suddenly, you shall not know.

gltv@Isaiah:47:12 @ Stand now among your spells, and with your many sorceries, in which you have wearied yourself since your youth. Perhaps you will be able to profit; perhaps may cause quaking.

gltv@Isaiah:47:13 @ You are exhausted by your many plans; let those dividing the heavens stand up now and save you, the stargazers, making known what is coming on you into the new moons.

gltv@Isaiah:47:14 @ Behold, they are as stubble; the fire burns them; they shall not save their soul from the flame's hand; there is no coal to warm them; nor fire, to sit before it.

gltv@Isaiah:47:15 @ So they are to you with whom you have labored, your traders from your youth; each one wanders to his own way; no one saves you.

gltv@Isaiah:48:1 @ Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come out from the waters of Judah, who swear by Jehovah's name and profess by the God of Israel, not in truth or in righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:48:2 @ For they are called of the holy city, and rest themselves on the God of Israel; Jehovah of Hosts is His name.

gltv@Isaiah:48:3 @ I have foretold the former things from then; and they went out of My mouth; and I made them hear; suddenly I acted, and they came about.

gltv@Isaiah:48:4 @ Because I knew that you are hard, and your neck is a sinew of iron, and your brow brass.

gltv@Isaiah:48:5 @ And I declared to you from then; before it came I made you hear, lest you should say, My idol did them; and my image and my casted image commanded them.

gltv@Isaiah:48:6 @ You heard; see it all; and will you not declare? I made you hear new things from now, even hidden things, and you did not know them.

gltv@Isaiah:48:7 @ They are created now, and not from then; even before today, but you did not hear them; lest you should say, See, I knew them.

gltv@Isaiah:48:8 @ Yea, you did not hear; yea, you did not know; yea, from then your ear was not opened; for I know you surely will betray and trespass, from the womb it was called to you.

gltv@Isaiah:48:9 @ For My name's sake I will put off My anger; and for My praise I will hold back for you, so as not to cut you off.

gltv@Isaiah:48:10 @ Behold, I have refined you, but not with silver; I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction.

gltv@Isaiah:48:11 @ For My sake, for My sake, I will act; for how is it defiled? And I will not give My glory to another.

gltv@Isaiah:48:12 @ Listen to Me, O Jacob, and Israel My called: I am He; I am the first; I surely am the last.

gltv@Isaiah:48:13 @ My hand surely founded earth, and My right hand has stretched out the heavens; I called to them, they stood up together.

gltv@Isaiah:48:14 @ All of you gather and hear: Who among them has declared these things? Jehovah has loved him. He will do His pleasure on Babylon; yea, His arm shall be on the Chaldeans.

gltv@Isaiah:48:15 @ I, I have spoken; yea, I have called him, I brought him, and he causes his way to prosper.

gltv@Isaiah:48:16 @ Come near to me; hear this: I have not spoken in secret from the beginning. From its being, I was there; and now the Lord Jehovah, and His Spirit, has sent Me.

gltv@Isaiah:48:17 @ So says Jehovah, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, I am Jehovah your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go.

gltv@Isaiah:48:18 @ Oh that you had listened to My commands! Then your peace would have been like the river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:48:19 @ And your seed would have been like the sand, and your offspring of your bowels like its grain; his name would not have been cut off nor destroyed from My presence.

gltv@Isaiah:48:20 @ Go out of Babylon; flee from the Chaldeans. Tell this with the voice of rejoicing; let this be heard, let it go out to the end of the earth; say, Jehovah has redeemed His servant Jacob.

gltv@Isaiah:48:21 @ And they did not thirst; He led them in the deserts; He made waters flow out of rock for them. And He cut open the rock and the water gushed out.

gltv@Isaiah:48:22 @ There is no peace, says Jehovah, to the wicked.

gltv@Isaiah:49:1 @ Hear Me, coastlands, and you people from afar, and prick up your ear, Jehovah called Me from the womb; He mentioned My name from My mother's belly.

gltv@Isaiah:49:2 @ And He made My mouth like a sharp sword; He hid Me in the shadow of His hand, and made Me a polished arrow; He hid me in His quiver;

gltv@Isaiah:49:3 @ and said to Me, You are My servant, Israel, You in whom I shall be glorified.

gltv@Isaiah:49:4 @ Then I said, I have labored in vain; I have spent My strength for nothing, and in vain; yet surely My judgment is with Jehovah, and My work with My God.

gltv@Isaiah:49:5 @ And now, says Jehovah who formed Me from the womb to be His servant, to bring Jacob back to Him: Though Israel is not gathered, yet I am honored in the eye of Jehovah, and My God is My strength.

gltv@Isaiah:49:6 @ And He said, It is too little that You should be My servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also give You for a light of the nations, that You may be My salvation to the end of the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:49:7 @ So says Jehovah, the Redeemer of Israel, His Holy One, to the despised of soul, to the hated of the nation, the servant of rulers, Kings shall see and rise up; and chiefs shall worship; because of Jehovah who is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel; and He chose You.

gltv@Isaiah:49:8 @ So says Jehovah: In a favorable time I have answered You, and in a day of salvation I have helped You. And I will preserve You, and give You for a covenant of the people; to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolated inheritances;

gltv@Isaiah:49:9 @ to say to the prisoners, Go out! To those who are in darkness, Show yourselves! They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.

gltv@Isaiah:49:10 @ They shall not hunger nor thirst; and the heat and sun shall not strike them. For He who has mercy on them shall lead them; and He shall guide them by the springs of water.

gltv@Isaiah:49:11 @ And I will make all My mountains a way, and My highways shall be set on high.

gltv@Isaiah:49:12 @ Behold, these shall come from afar; and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

gltv@Isaiah:49:13 @ Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; break out into singing, O mountains. For Jehovah has comforted His people and will have pity on His afflicted.

gltv@Isaiah:49:14 @ But Zion said, Jehovah has forsaken me, and, My Lord has forgotten me.

gltv@Isaiah:49:15 @ Can a woman forget her suckling child, from pitying the son of her womb? Yes, these may forget, yet I will surely not forget you.

gltv@Isaiah:49:16 @ Behold, I have carved you on the palms of My hands; your walls are always before Me.

gltv@Isaiah:49:17 @ Your sons hurry; those destroying you and ruining you shall go out from you.

gltv@Isaiah:49:18 @ Lift up your eyes all around and see! They all gather and come to you. As I live, says Jehovah, you shall surely wear all of them as an ornament, and bind them on as a bride.

gltv@Isaiah:49:19 @ For your wastes and your deserted places, and your land of ruins shall even now be too narrow to live there; and they who swallow you shall be far away.

gltv@Isaiah:49:20 @ The sons of your bereavement shall yet say in your ears, The place is too narrow for me; come near so that I may live.

gltv@Isaiah:49:21 @ Then you shall say in your heart, Who has borne these to me, for I am bereaved and desolate, turned aside and an exile; who then has brought up these? Behold, I was left alone. From where do these come?

gltv@Isaiah:49:22 @ So says the Lord Jehovah, Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations, and will set up My banner to peoples. And they shall bring your sons in the bosom, and your daughters shall be carried on the shoulder.

gltv@Isaiah:49:23 @ And kings shall be your nursing fathers, and their queens your nurses. They shall bow to you, faces down to the earth, and lick up the dust of your feet. And you shall know that I am Jehovah, by whom they who wait for Me shall not be ashamed.

gltv@Isaiah:49:24 @ Shall the plunder be taken from the warrior, or the righteous captive escape?

gltv@Isaiah:49:25 @ But so says Jehovah, Even the captives of the warrior shall be taken, and the plunder of the terrifying ones shall be delivered. For I will strive with him who contends with you; and I will save your sons.

gltv@Isaiah:49:26 @ And those who oppress you, I will feed with their own flesh: and they shall be drunk by their own blood, as with fresh wine. And all flesh shall know that I Jehovah am your Savior and your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

gltv@Isaiah:50:1 @ So says Jehovah, Where is the scroll of your mother's divorce whom I have put away? Or who of My creditors that I have sold you to him? Behold, you were sold for your iniquities, and your mother was put away for your trespasses.

gltv@Isaiah:50:2 @ Who knows why I have come, and no one is here? I called, and not one answered. Is My hand truly cut short from ransom? Or is there not power in Me to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea; I make rivers a wilderness; their fish stink because of no water, and die in thirst.

gltv@Isaiah:50:3 @ I clothe the heavens with blackness, and sackcloth makes their covering.

gltv@Isaiah:50:4 @ The Lord Jehovah has given to Me the tongue of taught ones, to know to help the weary with a word. He arouses in the morning; He wakens the ear to Me, to hear as the learned.

gltv@Isaiah:50:5 @ The Lord Jehovah has opened My ear and I did not rebel; I did not turn away backwards.

gltv@Isaiah:50:6 @ I gave My back to strikers, and My cheeks to pluckers; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting.

gltv@Isaiah:50:7 @ And the Lord Jehovah will help Me. On account of this I was not ashamed. On account of this I set My face like flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

gltv@Isaiah:50:8 @ My Justifier is near. Who will contend with Me? Let us stand up together; who is master of My judgment? Let him come near to Me.

gltv@Isaiah:50:9 @ Behold, the Lord Jehovah will help Me; who is He who will condemn Me? Behold, like a garment they shall wear out; the moth shall eat them.

gltv@Isaiah:50:10 @ Who among you fears Jehovah, obeying the voice of His servant, who walks in darkness, and no light is in him? Let him trust in the name of Jehovah, and lean on his God.

gltv@Isaiah:50:11 @ Behold, all of you who kindle fire, who are surrounded by sparks; walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks you are burning. This shall be to you from My hand; you shall lie down in pain.

gltv@Isaiah:51:1 @ Hear Me, pursuers of righteousness, seekers of Jehovah: Look to the rock from which you were cut, and to the hollow of the pit from which you were dug.

gltv@Isaiah:51:2 @ Look to your father Abraham, and to Sarah who bore you. For he being but one, I called him and blessed him and increased him.

gltv@Isaiah:51:3 @ For Jehovah comforts Zion. He comforts all her desolations, and He makes her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of Jehovah; joy and gladness shall be found in it, thanksgiving and the voice of singing praise.

gltv@Isaiah:51:4 @ Hear Me, My people; yea, give ear to Me, My nation. For a law shall go out from Me, and My justice I will make rest as light to peoples.

gltv@Isaiah:51:5 @ My righteousness is near; My salvation went out; and My arms shall judge peoples; coastlands shall wait on Me, and they shall hope on My arm.

gltv@Isaiah:51:6 @ Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look to the earth beneath; for the heavens vanish like smoke, and the earth shall wear out like a garment; and its inhabitants shall die in the same way, but My salvation shall be forever, and My righteousness shall not be broken.

gltv@Isaiah:51:7 @ Hear Me, knowers of righteousness, the people of My law in their heart; do not fear the reproach of man, and do not be bowed from their blasphemings.

gltv@Isaiah:51:8 @ For the moth shall eat them like a garment; yea, the moth worm shall eat them like wool. But My righteousness shall be forever, and My salvation to generation to generation.

gltv@Isaiah:51:9 @ Awake! Awake! Arm of Jehovah, put on strength. Awake, as in days of old, everlasting generations. Was it not You cutting in pieces Rahab, and piercing the sea monster?

gltv@Isaiah:51:10 @ Was it not You drying up the sea, the waters of the great deep, who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass?

gltv@Isaiah:51:11 @ Yea, the ransomed of Jehovah shall return and come to Zion with singing, and everlasting joy shall be on their head; gladness and joy shall overtake them; sorrow and sighing shall flee.

gltv@Isaiah:51:12 @ I, I am He comforting you. Who are you, that you should fear from man? He shall die! And from the son of man? He is given as grass.

gltv@Isaiah:51:13 @ And you forget your Maker Jehovah, who has stretched out the heavens and founded the earth. And you dread continually, every day, from the fury of the oppressor, since he was ready to destroy. And where is the fury of the oppressor?

gltv@Isaiah:51:14 @ Bowed down, he hurries to be freed, and not that he die in the pit, and not that he lack his bread.

gltv@Isaiah:51:15 @ But I am Jehovah your God, stirring up the sea and a making its waves roar; Jehovah of Hosts is His name.

gltv@Isaiah:51:16 @ And I have put My words in your mouth, and covered you in the shade of My hand, to plant the heavens and found the earth, and to say to Zion, You are My people.

gltv@Isaiah:51:17 @ Awake! Awake! Rise up, O Jerusalem, who drank the cup of His fury from the hand of Jehovah; you drank the bowl of the cup of reeling; you fully drained it.

gltv@Isaiah:51:18 @ No guide is for her among all the sons she has borne; and none takes her by the hand of all the sons she made to grow.

gltv@Isaiah:51:19 @ Those two things came to you; who shall wail for you? Ruin and shattering and famine and the sword, who but I shall comfort you?

gltv@Isaiah:51:20 @ Your sons have fainted; they lie at the head of all the streets, like an antelope in a net, filled with the fury of Jehovah, the rebuke of your God.

gltv@Isaiah:51:21 @ So hear this now, afflicted one, and drunken, but not from wine:

gltv@Isaiah:51:22 @ So says your Lord Jehovah and your God, He strives for His people. Behold, I have taken the cup of reeling out of your hand, the bowl of the cup of My fury; you shall not yet again drink it.

gltv@Isaiah:51:23 @ But I will put it into the hand of those oppressing you, who have said to your soul, Bow down that we may cross, and Put your back as the ground, and as the street to those who cross.

gltv@Isaiah:52:1 @ Awake! Awake! Put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful robes, O Jerusalem, the holy city. For never again shall uncircumcised and unclean ones come to you.

gltv@Isaiah:52:2 @ Shake yourself from the dust; rise up! Sit, Jerusalem; free yourself from your neck bands, O captive daughter of Zion.

gltv@Isaiah:52:3 @ For so says Jehovah: You were sold for nothing, and you will not be redeemed with silver.

gltv@Isaiah:52:4 @ For so says the Lord Jehovah: My people went down to Egypt at the first, to reside there, and without cause Assyria oppressed him.

gltv@Isaiah:52:5 @ So then what is to Me here, declares Jehovah? For My people is taken for nothing; his rulers howl, declares Jehovah. And My name is continually despised, every day.

gltv@Isaiah:52:6 @ So My people shall know My name thus in that day; for I am He speaking. Behold Me!

gltv@Isaiah:52:7 @ How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him bringing good news, making peace heard, bringing good news, proclaiming salvation; saying to Zion, Your God reigns!

gltv@Isaiah:52:8 @ The voice of your watchmen, they lift the voice together, they sing aloud. For they shall see eye to eye when Jehovah brings back Zion.

gltv@Isaiah:52:9 @ Break out, sing together, waste places of Jerusalem; for Jehovah comforts His people; He has redeemed Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:52:13 @ Behold, My Servant shall rule wisely; He shall be exalted and lifted up and be very high.

gltv@Isaiah:52:14 @ Just as many were astonished over You, so much was the disfigurement from man, His appearance and His form from sons of mankind.

gltv@Isaiah:52:15 @ so He sprinkles from many nations. At Him kings shall shut their mouths; for they will see that which was not told to them; yea, what they had not heard, they will understand.

gltv@Isaiah:53:1 @ Who has believed our report? And to whom is the arm of Jehovah revealed?

gltv@Isaiah:53:2 @ For He comes up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no form nor magnificence that we should see Him; nor form that we should desire Him.

gltv@Isaiah:53:3 @ He is despised and abandoned of men, a Man of pains, and acquainted with sickness. And as it were hiding our faces from Him, He being despised, and we did not value Him.

gltv@Isaiah:53:4 @ Surely He has borne our sicknesses, and He carried our pain; yet we esteemed Him plagued, smitten by God, and afflicted.

gltv@Isaiah:53:5 @ But He was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His wounds we ourselves are healed.

gltv@Isaiah:53:6 @ All we like sheep have gone astray; we have each one turned to his own way; and Jehovah made meet in Him the iniquity of all of us.

gltv@Isaiah:53:7 @ He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, but He did not open His mouth. He was led as a lamb to the slaughter; and as a ewe before her shearers is dumb, so He opened not His mouth.

gltv@Isaiah:53:8 @ He was taken from prison and from justice; and who shall consider His generation? For He was cut off out of the land of the living; from the transgression of My people, the stroke was to Him.

gltv@Isaiah:53:9 @ And He put His grave with the wicked; and with a rich man in His death; although He had done no violence, and deceit was not in His mouth.

gltv@Isaiah:53:10 @ But Jehovah pleased to crush Him, to make Him sick, so that If He should put His soul as a guilt offering, He shall see His seed; He shall prolong His days; and the will of Jehovah shall prosper in His hand.

gltv@Isaiah:53:11 @ He shall see the fruit of the travail of His soul; He shall be fully satisfied. By His knowledge shall My righteous Servant justify for many, and He shall bear their iniquities.

gltv@Isaiah:53:12 @ Because of this I will divide to Him with the great, and with the strong He shall divide the spoil; because He poured out His soul to death; and He was counted with transgressors; and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for transgressors.

gltv@Isaiah:54:1 @ Rejoice, unfruitful one who never bore; break out a song and shout, you who never travailed. For the sons of the desolate one are more than the sons of the married woman, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:54:2 @ Make the place of your tent larger, and let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings. Do not spare, lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes.

gltv@Isaiah:54:3 @ For you shall break forth on the right hand and on the left. And your seed shall possess nations, and people will inhabit ruined cities.

gltv@Isaiah:54:4 @ Do not fear, for you shall not be shamed, nor shall you be abashed, for you shall not be wounded. For you shall forget the shame of your youth, and you shall not remember the reproach of your widowhood any more.

gltv@Isaiah:54:5 @ For your Maker is your husband; Jehovah of Hosts is His name; and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God of all the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:54:6 @ For Jehovah has called you as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of young men when she is rejected, says your God.

gltv@Isaiah:54:7 @ For a little moment I have left you, but I will gather you with great pityings.

gltv@Isaiah:54:8 @ In a flood of wrath I hid My face from you for a moment; but I will have pity on you with everlasting kindness, says Jehovah your Redeemer.

gltv@Isaiah:54:9 @ For this is the waters of Noah to Me; for as I swore to refrain from passing over the waters of Noah over the earth again, so I have sworn from being and with you and rebuking you.

gltv@Isaiah:54:10 @ For the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed, but My mercy shall not depart from you; nor shall the covenant of My peace be removed, says Jehovah who has pity on you.

gltv@Isaiah:54:11 @ Afflicted one, storm tossed and not comforted! Behold, I stretch out your stones among antimony, and lay your foundations with sapphires.

gltv@Isaiah:54:12 @ And I will make your battlements of ruby, and your gates carbuncle stones, and all your borders pleasing stones;

gltv@Isaiah:54:13 @ and all your sons will be taught of Jehovah; and the peace of your sons will be great.

gltv@Isaiah:54:14 @ You shall be established in righteousness; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you.

gltv@Isaiah:54:15 @ Behold, they shall surely gather, but not from Me. Who has gathered against you? By you he shall fall.

gltv@Isaiah:54:16 @ Behold, I have created the smith who blows the coal in the fire, and who brings out a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

gltv@Isaiah:54:17 @ Every weapon formed against you shall not prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment, you shall condemn. This is the inheritance of the servants of Jehovah, and their righteousness is from Me, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:55:1 @ Ho, everyone who thirsts, come to the water; and he who has no silver, come buy grain and eat. Yes, come buy grain, wine and milk without silver and with no price.

gltv@Isaiah:55:2 @ Why do you weigh out silver for that which is not bread, and your labor for what never satisfies? Listen carefully to Me and eat the good; and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

gltv@Isaiah:55:3 @ Bend your ear and come to Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will cut a covenant everlasting with you, the faithful mercies of David.

gltv@Isaiah:55:4 @ Behold, I gave Him a Witness to peoples, a Leader and Commander of peoples.

gltv@Isaiah:55:5 @ Behold, You shall call a nation You do not know; yea, a nation not knowing You shall run to You, because of Jehovah Your God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for He has glorified You.

gltv@Isaiah:55:6 @ Seek Jehovah while He may be found; call on Him while He is near.

gltv@Isaiah:55:7 @ Let the wicked forsake his way and the vain man his thoughts; and let him return to Jehovah, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.

gltv@Isaiah:55:8 @ For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:55:9 @ For as the heavens are high from the earth, so My ways are high from your ways, and My thoughts from your thoughts.

gltv@Isaiah:55:10 @ For as the rain and the snow comes down from the heavens and do not return there, except it waters the earth and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater,

gltv@Isaiah:55:11 @ so shall My word be, which goes out of My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in what I sent it to do!

gltv@Isaiah:55:12 @ For you shall go out with joy and be led out with peace. The mountains and the hills shall break out into song before you, and all the trees of the field shall clap the palm.

gltv@Isaiah:55:13 @ Instead of the thornbush, the fir tree shall come up; instead of the brier, the myrtle shall come up; and it shall be for a name to Jehovah, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.

gltv@Isaiah:56:1 @ So says Jehovah: Keep justice and do righteousness, for My salvation is near to come, and My righteousness to be revealed.

gltv@Isaiah:56:2 @ Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who lays hold on it; keeping sabbath, from defiling it; and keeping his hand from doing every evil.

gltv@Isaiah:56:3 @ And do not let the son of the foreigner speak, he who joins himself to Jehovah, saying, Jehovah surely separates me from His people; and not do let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dried tree.

gltv@Isaiah:56:4 @ For so says Jehovah to the eunuchs who keep My sabbaths and choose things I am pleased with, and take hold of My covenant:

gltv@Isaiah:56:5 @ I, even I will give to them in My house and in My walls a hand and a name better than sons and than daughters; I will give them an everlasting name which shall not be cut off.

gltv@Isaiah:56:6 @ And the sons of the alien who join themselves on Jehovah to serve Him, and to love the name of Jehovah, to be His servants, everyone who keeps from defiling the sabbath, and takes hold of My covenant:

gltv@Isaiah:56:7 @ even them I will bring to My holy mount and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted on My altar, for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the peoples,

gltv@Isaiah:56:8 @ states the Lord Jehovah, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, I will yet gather beside him his gathered ones.

gltv@Isaiah:56:9 @ All beasts of the field come to devour, all beasts in the forest!

gltv@Isaiah:56:10 @ His watchmen are blind; they all do not know; they are all dumb dogs; they cannot bark, dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber;

gltv@Isaiah:56:11 @ yea, dogs greedy of soul; they do not know satisfaction. And they are shepherds; they know not discernment; they all look to their own way, each one for his own gain, from his own end, saying:

gltv@Isaiah:56:12 @ Come, and let me bring wine, and let us gulp down fermented drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, great, exceedingly abundant.

gltv@Isaiah:57:1 @ The righteous one perishes, and no one lays it to heart; yea, merciful men are gathered, with no one discerning that the righteous is gathered from the face of evil.

gltv@Isaiah:57:2 @ He shall enter peace; they shall rest on their couches, walking in his uprightness.

gltv@Isaiah:57:3 @ But you, draw near here, sons of the sorceress, seed of the adulterer and playing the harlot.

gltv@Isaiah:57:4 @ On whom are you making sport? On whom do you make a wide mouth and draw out the tongue? Are you not children of transgression, a lying seed,

gltv@Isaiah:57:5 @ being inflamed with idols under every green tree, slaughtering the children in the torrent beds, under the clefts of the rocks?

gltv@Isaiah:57:6 @ Your lot is in the torrent's smoothness; they, they are your portion; even to them you have poured a drink offering; you have offered a food offering. Should I be consoled over these?

gltv@Isaiah:57:7 @ You have set your couch on a lofty and high mountain; yea, you went up there to sacrifice a sacrifice.

gltv@Isaiah:57:8 @ And you have set up your memorial behind the door and post. For you uncovered yourself from Me and went up; you enlarged your couch; and you cut covenant with them; you loved their couch; at a hand you looked.

gltv@Isaiah:57:9 @ And you went to the king with oil and multiplied your perfume. And you sent your messengers far away, and lowered yourself to Sheol.

gltv@Isaiah:57:10 @ You were wearied in the length of your way; you did not say, Despair! You found the life of your hand, so you were not sick.

gltv@Isaiah:57:11 @ And whom have you dreaded and feared? You have lied and have not remembered Me, not laying it on your heart. Have I not been silent, even from forever, and you have not feared Me?

gltv@Isaiah:57:12 @ I will reveal your righteousness and your works, and they will not benefit you.

gltv@Isaiah:57:13 @ When you cry, let your gathering deliver you; but the wind shall bear away all of them; vanity takes them. But he who takes refuge in Me shall inherit the land and possess My holy mountain.

gltv@Isaiah:57:14 @ And he shall say, Raise up! Raise up! Clear the way! Make the stumbling block rise from the way of My people.

gltv@Isaiah:57:15 @ For so says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, and His name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, even with the contrite and humble of spirit; to make live the spirit of the humble and to make live the heart of the contrite ones.

gltv@Isaiah:57:16 @ For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry, for the spirit would faint before Me, even the breaths I have made.

gltv@Isaiah:57:17 @ For I was angry and struck him for the iniquity of his gain; I hid Myself and was angry; yet he went, turning in his heart's way.

gltv@Isaiah:57:18 @ His ways I have seen, but I will heal him, and will lead him and restore comforting to him and to his mourners.

gltv@Isaiah:57:19 @ I create the fruit of the lips: peace, peace, to the ones far off and near, says Jehovah, and I will heal him.

gltv@Isaiah:57:20 @ But the wicked are like the driven sea, which cannot be quiet, and its waves cast up mire and dirt.

gltv@Isaiah:57:21 @ There is no peace to the wicked, says my God.

gltv@Isaiah:58:1 @ Call out with the throat! Do not spare. Lift up your voice like the ram's horn! And show My people their rebellion, and their sins to the house of Jacob.

gltv@Isaiah:58:2 @ Yet they seek Me day by day, and desire knowledge of My ways. As a nation that has done right, and not forsaking the judgment of their God, they ask Me about judgments of righteousness; they desire to draw near to God.

gltv@Isaiah:58:3 @ They say, Why have we fasted, and You did not see? We have afflicted our soul, and You did not acknowledge. Behold, on the day of your fast you find pleasure; and you drive all your laborers hard.

gltv@Isaiah:58:4 @ Look! You fast for strife, and for debate, and to strike with the fist of wickedness. Do not fast as today, to sound your voice in the high place.

gltv@Isaiah:58:5 @ Is this like the fast I will choose, a day for a man to afflict his soul? To bow his head down like a bulrush, and he spreads sackcloth and ashes? Will you call to this as a fast and a day of delight to Jehovah?

gltv@Isaiah:58:6 @ Is this not the fast I have chosen: to open bands of wickedness, to undo thongs of the yoke, and to let the oppressed ones go free; even that you pull off every yoke?

gltv@Isaiah:58:7 @ Is it not to break your bread to the hungry, that you should bring the wandering poor home? When will you see the naked and cover him; and you will not hide yourself from your flesh?

gltv@Isaiah:58:8 @ Then your light shall break as the dawn, and your healing shall spring up quickly; and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of Jehovah shall gather you.

gltv@Isaiah:58:9 @ Then you shall call, and Jehovah will answer; you shall cry, and He shall say, Here I am. If you put the yoke away from among you, the sending out of the finger, and the speaking of vanity;

gltv@Isaiah:58:10 @ and if you let out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then your light shall rise in the darkness, and your gloom shall be as the noonday.

gltv@Isaiah:58:11 @ And Jehovah shall always guide you, and satisfy your soul in dry places, and support your bones. And you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water whose waters do not fail.

gltv@Isaiah:58:12 @ And those who come of you shall build the old ruins; you shall rear the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called, The repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to live in.

gltv@Isaiah:58:13 @ If you turn your foot away because of the sabbath, from doing what you please on My holy days, and call the sabbath a delight, glorified to the holiness of doing your own ways, from finding your own pleasure or speaking your word;

gltv@Isaiah:58:14 @ then you shall delight yourself in Jehovah. And I will cause you to ride on the heights of the earth, and make you eat with the inheritance of your father Jacob. For the mouth of Jehovah has spoken.

gltv@Isaiah:59:1 @ Behold, the hand of Jehovah is not shortened from saving, nor is His ear heavy from hearing.

gltv@Isaiah:59:2 @ But your iniquities are coming between you and your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you, from hearing.

gltv@Isaiah:59:3 @ For your hands are defiled by blood; yea, your fingers with iniquity. Your lips have spoken falsehood; your tongue murmurs perverseness.

gltv@Isaiah:59:4 @ No one calls for righteousness; and no one pleads with truth. Trusting emptiness, and speaking vanity, they conceive mischief, and give birth to evil.

gltv@Isaiah:59:5 @ They hatch adders' eggs, and weave the spider's web; he who eats their eggs dies; and that which is crushed hatches out a viper.

gltv@Isaiah:59:6 @ Their webs shall not become clothing, nor shall they cover themselves with their works. Their works are works of evil, and the act of violence is in their hands.

gltv@Isaiah:59:7 @ Their feet run to evil, and they hurry to pour out innocent blood. Thoughts of iniquity are their thoughts; wasting and ruin are in their tracks.

gltv@Isaiah:59:8 @ They do not know the way of peace; and no justice is in their tracks. They have made crooked paths for themselves; everyone going in them does not know peace.

gltv@Isaiah:59:9 @ For this reason justice is far from us; and righteousness does not overtake us. We wait for light, but, behold, dimness; for brightness, but we walk in gloom.

gltv@Isaiah:59:10 @ We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes; we stumble at noonday as in the twilight, in deserted places like the dead.

gltv@Isaiah:59:11 @ We all of us roar like bears, and we moan sadly like doves. We look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far from us.

gltv@Isaiah:59:12 @ For our trespasses are multiplied before You, and our sins testify against us. For our transgressions are with us, and we know our iniquities;

gltv@Isaiah:59:13 @ transgressing and lying against Jehovah, and departing from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and murmuring words of falsehood from the heart.

gltv@Isaiah:59:14 @ And justice is driven back; and righteousness stands far off; for truth stumbles in the plaza, and right is not able to enter.

gltv@Isaiah:59:15 @ And the truth is lacking; and whoever turns from evil makes himself a prey. And Jehovah saw; and it was evil in His eyes, that there was no justice.

gltv@Isaiah:59:16 @ And He saw that there was no man, and He was astonished that there was no intercessor. And His own arm saved for Him; and His righteousness sustained Him.

gltv@Isaiah:59:17 @ For He put on righteousness like armor, and a helmet of salvation on His head. And He put on robes of vengeance as clothing; and He put on zeal like a mantle.

gltv@Isaiah:59:18 @ According to works, so He will repay; fury to His foes; recompense to His foes; He will repay recompense to the coasts.

gltv@Isaiah:59:19 @ So they shall fear Jehovah's name from the sunset, and His glory from the sunrise. When the foe comes like a flood, the Spirit of Jehovah shall cause him to flee.

gltv@Isaiah:59:20 @ And the Redeemer comes to Zion, and to those in Jacob who turn from transgression, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:59:21 @ As for Me, this is My covenant with them, says Jehovah: My Spirit who is on you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouth of your seed, or out of the mouth of your seed's seed, from now on and forever, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:60:1 @ Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of Jehovah has risen on you!

gltv@Isaiah:60:2 @ For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples. But Jehovah shall rise on you, and His glory shall be seen on you.

gltv@Isaiah:60:3 @ And nations shall walk to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawning.

gltv@Isaiah:60:4 @ Lift up your eyes all around and see; they are all assembling; they are coming to you. Your sons shall come from far away, and your daughters shall be supported on the side.

gltv@Isaiah:60:5 @ Then you shall fear and be bright; and your heart shall dread and swell. For the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you; the wealth of nations shall come to you.

gltv@Isaiah:60:6 @ A host of camels shall cover you, young camels of Midian and Ephah. All of them shall come from Sheba, they shall carry gold and incense; and they shall proclaim the praises of Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:60:7 @ All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered to you; rams of Nebaioth shall serve you; they shall come up for acceptance on My altar; and I will glorify the house of My glory.

gltv@Isaiah:60:8 @ Who are these who fly like a cloud, and with the doves to their windows?

gltv@Isaiah:60:9 @ For the coastlands shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish at the first, to bring your sons from far away, their silver and their gold to them, to the name of Jehovah your God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because He has glorified you.

gltv@Isaiah:60:10 @ And the sons of the stranger shall build your walls; and their kings shall serve you. For I struck you in My wrath, but I pitied you in My favor.

gltv@Isaiah:60:11 @ So your gates shall be always open; they shall not be shut day or night, so that men may bring to you the force of nations, and that their kings may be led.

gltv@Isaiah:60:12 @ For the nations and the kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yea, the nations shall be utterly destroyed.

gltv@Isaiah:60:13 @ The glory of Lebanon shall come to you: the juniper, the box tree, and the cypress together, to beautify the place of My sanctuary; yea, I will glorify the place of My feet.

gltv@Isaiah:60:14 @ Also the sons of your afflicters shall come bowing to you. And all who despised you shall fall at the soles of your feet. And they shall call you, The City of Jehovah, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

gltv@Isaiah:60:15 @ Instead of your being forsaken and hated, so that no one passes through, I will make you for everlasting majesty, a joy of many generations.

gltv@Isaiah:60:16 @ You shall also suck the milk of nations, and you shall suck the breast of kings. And you shall know that I, Jehovah, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

gltv@Isaiah:60:17 @ Instead of bronze, I will bring gold; and instead of iron, I will bring silver. And instead of timber, bronze; and instead of stones, iron. And I will make your governors peace, and your exacters righteousness.

gltv@Isaiah:60:18 @ Violence shall not still be heard in your land, or wasting and ruin within your borders; but you shall call your walls, Salvation, and your gates, Praise.

gltv@Isaiah:60:19 @ The sun shall not still be your light by day, or the brightness of the moon give you light; but Jehovah shall be for everlasting light to you, and your God for your beauty.

gltv@Isaiah:60:20 @ Your sun shall not set any more; and your moon shall not withdraw; for Jehovah will become your everlasting light; and the days of your mourning shall end.

gltv@Isaiah:60:21 @ And your people shall all be righteous; they shall possess the earth forever, a branch of My planting, a work of My hands, to beautify Myself.

gltv@Isaiah:60:22 @ A little one shall become a thousand and a small one a strong nation. I, Jehovah, will hasten it in its time.

gltv@Isaiah:61:1 @ The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is on Me, because Jehovah has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the meek. He has sent Me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to captives, and complete opening to the bound ones;

gltv@Isaiah:61:2 @ to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;

gltv@Isaiah:61:3 @ to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of the spirit of infirmity, so that one calls them trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, in order to beautify Himself.

gltv@Isaiah:61:4 @ And they shall build old ruins; they shall raise up former desolations; and they shall restore the waste cities, ruins of generations and generations.

gltv@Isaiah:61:5 @ And foreigners shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of strangers shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.

gltv@Isaiah:61:6 @ But you shall be called, Priests of Jehovah; it will be said of you, Ministers of our God. You shall eat the riches of the nations, and you shall revel in their glory.

gltv@Isaiah:61:7 @ Instead of your shame and disgrace, double. They rejoice in their portion; for they shall possess a second time in their land; everlasting joy shall be theirs.

gltv@Isaiah:61:8 @ For I, Jehovah, love judgment, hating plunder in burnt offering. And I will give their work in truth; and I will cut an everlasting covenant for them.

gltv@Isaiah:61:9 @ And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed that Jehovah has blessed.

gltv@Isaiah:61:10 @ I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah. My soul shall be joyful in my God. For He clothed me with garments of salvation; He put on me the robe of righteousness, even as a bridegroom puts on his ornament, and as the bride is adorned with her jewels.

gltv@Isaiah:61:11 @ For as the earth comes out with her buds, and as a garden causes that which is sown to grow, so the Lord Jehovah will make righteousness and praise to grow before all the nations.

gltv@Isaiah:62:1 @ For Zion's sake, I will not be silent; and for Jerusalem's sake, I will not rest; until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning lamp.

gltv@Isaiah:62:2 @ And nations shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory. And you shall be called by a new name which the mouth of Jehovah shall name.

gltv@Isaiah:62:3 @ You also shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal diadem in the palm of your God.

gltv@Isaiah:62:4 @ You no longer shall be called Forsaken; nor shall your land any longer be called Desolate. But you shall be called, My Delight is in Her; and your land, Married. For Jehovah delights in you, and your land is married.

gltv@Isaiah:62:5 @ For as a young man marries a virgin, so shall your sons marry you. And as a bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so your God shall rejoice over you.

gltv@Isaiah:62:6 @ I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem. All the day and all the night they shall not always be silent; you who remember Jehovah, do not let a pause be to you.

gltv@Isaiah:62:7 @ And give no pause to Him until He sets up and makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:62:8 @ Jehovah has sworn by His right hand, and by the might of His arm: Surely I will no longer give your grain as food for your enemies; and the sons of a stranger shall not drink your new wine for which you have labored.

gltv@Isaiah:62:9 @ But those who have gathered it shall eat it, and praise Jehovah. And they who have collected it shall drink it in My holy courts.

gltv@Isaiah:62:10 @ Pass! Pass through the gates; prepare the way of the people! Raise up! Raise up the highway; clear it from stones; lift up a banner over the peoples.

gltv@Isaiah:62:11 @ Behold, Jehovah has made it to be heard to the end of the earth; Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold! Your salvation comes! Behold! His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.

gltv@Isaiah:62:12 @ And they shall call them, The Holy People, the Redeemed of Jehovah. And to you it shall be called, Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.

gltv@Isaiah:63:1 @ Who is this who comes from Edom with dyed garments from Bozrah, this One adorned in His clothing, bending in His great power? It is I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save!

gltv@Isaiah:63:2 @ Why is Your clothing red, and Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?

gltv@Isaiah:63:3 @ I have trodden the winepress, I alone, and no man of the peoples was with Me. And I will tread them in My anger, and trample them in My fury; and their juice shall be spattered on My garments; and I will pollute all My clothes.

gltv@Isaiah:63:4 @ For the day of vengeance is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come.

gltv@Isaiah:63:5 @ And I looked, and no one was helping. And I wondered that no one was upholding. Then My own arm saved for Me, and My fury upheld Me.

gltv@Isaiah:63:6 @ And I trod down the people in My anger, and made them drunk in My fury. And I poured their juice to the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:63:7 @ I will mention the mercies of Jehovah, the praises of Jehovah, according to all that Jehovah has benefited us, and the great good to the house of Israel, by which He benefited them according to His mercies, and according to the multitude of His loving-kindness.

gltv@Isaiah:63:8 @ For He said, Surely they are My people, sons that do not lie, and He is their Savior.

gltv@Isaiah:63:9 @ In all their affliction, He was not a foe; and the Angel of his Face saved them. In His love and in His pity He redeemed them. And He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

gltv@Isaiah:63:10 @ But they rebelled, and provoked His Holy Spirit, so He was turned to be their enemy; He fought against them.

gltv@Isaiah:63:11 @ Then His people remembered the days past of Moses and His people, saying, Where is He who brought us up from the sea with the shepherd of His flock. Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within him;

gltv@Isaiah:63:12 @ who led them by Moses' right hand, with His glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make for Him an everlasting name?

gltv@Isaiah:63:13 @ He led them through the deeps; like the horse in the wilderness, they did not stumble.

gltv@Isaiah:63:14 @ As the cattle go down into the valley, so the Spirit of Jehovah caused him to rest; so You led Your people, to make a glorious name for Yourself.

gltv@Isaiah:63:15 @ Look down from Heaven and peer from the place of Your holiness and your glory. Where is Your zeal and Your might? The stirring of Your affections and Your mercies toward me, are they held back?

gltv@Isaiah:63:16 @ For You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us; You, Jehovah, are our Father, our Redeemer; Your name is from everlasting.

gltv@Isaiah:63:17 @ O Jehovah, why do You make us wander from Your ways? You harden our heart from Your fear. For Your servants' sake, return the tribes of Your inheritance.

gltv@Isaiah:63:18 @ For a little while Your holy people possessed it. Our enemies have trampled Your sanctuary.

gltv@Isaiah:63:19 @ We are of old; You never ruled over them. Your name was never called on them.

gltv@Isaiah:64:1 @ Oh that You would tear the heavens and come down, that mountains would quake before You.

gltv@Isaiah:64:2 @ As the brushwood fire burns and fire causes water to boil, make known Your name to Your foes, that nations might tremble before You.

gltv@Isaiah:64:3 @ When You did terrifying things which we did not look for, You came down; mountains flowed down before You.

gltv@Isaiah:64:4 @ And from forever they have not heard; they did not give ear. Eye has not seen a God except You, who works for him who waits for Him.

gltv@Isaiah:64:5 @ You meet him who rejoices and works righteousness; they recall You in Your ways. Behold, You were angry, for we sinned. In I them is eternity, we shall be saved.

gltv@Isaiah:64:6 @ But we are all as the unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as a menstruous cloth. And we all fade as a leaf, and like the wind our iniquities take us away.

gltv@Isaiah:64:7 @ And there is not one who calls on Your name, who stirs himself up to take hold of You. For You have hidden Your face from us, and have melted us away into the hand of our iniquities.

gltv@Isaiah:64:8 @ But now, Jehovah, You are our Father. We are the clay, and You are our Former; yea, we all are Your handiwork.

gltv@Isaiah:64:9 @ Do not be extremely angry, Jehovah, and do not remember iniquity forever. Behold! look, please; all of us are Your people.

gltv@Isaiah:64:10 @ Your holy cities are a wilderness; Zion is a wilderness; Jerusalem is a desolation.

gltv@Isaiah:64:11 @ The house of our holiness and our beauty where our fathers praised You has become a burning of fire, and all our pleasant things have become a ruin.

gltv@Isaiah:64:12 @ Will You restrain Yourself over these things, Jehovah? Will you be silent and sorely afflict us?

gltv@Isaiah:65:1 @ I have been sought, not by those who asked. I have been found, not by those who sought Me. To a nation not calling on My name, I said, Behold Me! Behold Me!

gltv@Isaiah:65:2 @ I have spread out My hands all the day long to a rebellious people who walk in the way not good, after their own thoughts;

gltv@Isaiah:65:3 @ a people who continually provoke Me to My face; who sacrifice in gardens, and burn incense on the bricks;

gltv@Isaiah:65:4 @ who sit among the graves and lodge in the towers; who eat swine's flesh, and broth of unclean things in their pots;

gltv@Isaiah:65:5 @ who say, Keep to yourself! Do not come near me, for I am holier than you! These are a smoke in My nose, a fire burning all the day.

gltv@Isaiah:65:6 @ Behold! It is written before Me: I will not be silent, except I repay; yea, I will repay to their bosom,

gltv@Isaiah:65:7 @ our iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together, says Jehovah; they that burned incense on the mountains, and have blasphemed Me on the hills. And I will measure their former work on their bosom.

gltv@Isaiah:65:8 @ So says Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it; so I will do for the sake of My servants, not to destroy the whole.

gltv@Isaiah:65:9 @ And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah one to inherit My mountains. And My chosen one shall inherit, and My servants shall live there.

gltv@Isaiah:65:10 @ And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks; and the valley of Achor a resting place of herds for My people who have sought Me.

gltv@Isaiah:65:11 @ But you are those who forsake Jehovah, who forget My holy mountain; who array a table for Fortune, and who fill mixed wine for Fate.

gltv@Isaiah:65:12 @ And I will number you to the sword; and you shall all bow down to the slaughter; because I called and you did not answer. I spoke, and you did not hear; and you did the evil in My eyes; and you chose that in which I had no pleasure.

gltv@Isaiah:65:13 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry. Behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty. Behold, My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed.

gltv@Isaiah:65:14 @ Behold, My servants shall sing for joy of heart, but you shall cry from heartbreak, and howl from breaking of spirit.

gltv@Isaiah:65:15 @ And you shall leave your name for a curse to My chosen. And the Lord Jehovah shall kill you; and He shall call His servants by another name.

gltv@Isaiah:65:16 @ He who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth. And he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former distresses are forgotten; and because they are hidden from My eyes.

gltv@Isaiah:65:17 @ For, behold, I create new heavens and new earth. And the things before shall not be recalled, and they shall not go up on the heart.

gltv@Isaiah:65:18 @ However, be glad and rejoice forever in what I create. For, behold, I create in Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.

gltv@Isaiah:65:19 @ And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in My people. And the voice of weeping and the voice of crying shall no longer be heard in her.

gltv@Isaiah:65:20 @ There shall not still be an infant of days, or an old man that has not filled his days. For the youth shall die the son of a hundred years, but the sinner the son of a hundred years shall be accursed.

gltv@Isaiah:65:21 @ And they shall build houses and live in them; and they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

gltv@Isaiah:65:22 @ They shall not build, and another live in them; they shall not plant, and another eat. For like the days of the tree are the days of My people; and My elect shall grow old to the work of their hands.

gltv@Isaiah:65:23 @ They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth for terror. For they are the seed of the beloved ones of Jehovah, and their offspring with them.

gltv@Isaiah:65:24 @ And it will be, before they call, I will answer. While they are speaking, then I will hear.

gltv@Isaiah:65:25 @ The wolf and the lamb shall feed as one; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. And dust is the food of the snake. They shall not do evil nor destroy in all My holy mountain, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:66:1 @ So says Jehovah: Heaven is My throne, and earth the footstool of My feet. Where then is the house that you build for Me? And where then is the place of My rest?

gltv@Isaiah:66:2 @ And My hand has made all these things, even all these things exist, declares Jehovah. But I will look toward this one, to the afflicted, and to the contrite of spirit, even trembling at My word.

gltv@Isaiah:66:3 @ He who kills an ox is as if he struck a man; he who sacrifices a lamb is as if he broke a dog's neck; he who offers a present is as if it were swine's blood; he who marks incense is as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their way, and their soul delights in their abominations.

gltv@Isaiah:66:4 @ I also will choose their vexations; and I will bring their fears to them; because I called, and no one answered; I spoke, and they did not hear. But they did the evil in My eyes, and chose that in which I had no pleasure.

gltv@Isaiah:66:5 @ Hear the word of Jehovah, those who tremble at His word. Your brothers who hate you, who drive you out for My name's sake, have said, Jehovah is glorified. But He shall appear in your joy, and they shall be ashamed.

gltv@Isaiah:66:6 @ A roaring sound from the city! A sound from the temple! It is the sound of Jehovah repaying retribution to His enemies.

gltv@Isaiah:66:7 @ Before she travailed, she brought forth; before pain came to her, she delivered a male child.

gltv@Isaiah:66:8 @ Who has heard a thing like this? Who has seen things like these? Shall the earth be brought forth in one day? Shall a nation be born in one step? For Zion travailed and also brought forth her sons.

gltv@Isaiah:66:9 @ Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? says Jehovah. Surely I cause birth, and hold back, says your God.

gltv@Isaiah:66:10 @ Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all who love her. Rejoice a rejoicing with her, all who mourn for her;

gltv@Isaiah:66:11 @ that you may suck and be satisfied with her comforting breasts; that you may milk out and delight yourselves with the fullness of her glory.

gltv@Isaiah:66:12 @ For so says Jehovah: Behold, I stretch out peace to her like a river, and glory of nations like an overflowing torrent. And You shall suck; you shall be carried on the side and be dandled on knees.

gltv@Isaiah:66:13 @ As a man whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you. And you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

gltv@Isaiah:66:14 @ And you will see, and your heart shall rejoice; and your bones shall flourish like the grass. And the hand of Jehovah shall be known toward His servants, and He shall be indignant with His enemies.

gltv@Isaiah:66:15 @ For, behold, Jehovah will come with fire, and His chariots like the tempest, to return His wrath in fury, and His rebuke in flames of fire.

gltv@Isaiah:66:16 @ For by fire and by His sword Jehovah will execute judgment with all flesh; and the slain of Jehovah shall be many.

gltv@Isaiah:66:17 @ Those who sanctify themselves, and purify themselves to the gardens, each one in the midst, eaters of swine's flesh, and the hateful thing, and the mouse, these are cut off together, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:66:18 @ For I know their works and their thoughts; it comes to gather all the nations and the tongues; and they shall come and see My glory.

gltv@Isaiah:66:19 @ And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those who escape from them to the nations of Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, drawers of the bow; to Tubal and Javan, to the far away coasts that have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they shall declare My glory among the nations.

gltv@Isaiah:66:20 @ And they shall bring all your brothers out of all nations, an offering to Jehovah, on horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and on mules, and on camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem, says Jehovah; as the sons of Israel bring the offering in a clean vessel to the house of Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:66:21 @ And I will also take some of them for the priests, for the Levites, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:66:22 @ For as the new heavens and the new earth which I make stand before Me, declares Jehovah, so your seed and your name shall stand.

gltv@Isaiah:66:23 @ And it will be, from new moon to its new moon, and from sabbath to its sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before Me, says Jehovah.

gltv@Isaiah:66:24 @ And they shall go out and see the dead bodies of the men who have transgressed against Me; for their worm shall not die, nor shall their fire be put out; and they shall be an object of disgust to all flesh.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:1 @ The words of the son of Hilkiah, one of the priests who resided in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin,

gltv@Jeremiah:1:2 @ to whom the word of Jehovah came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:3 @ It also came in the days of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, to the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:4 @ Then the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:1:5 @ I knew you before I formed you in the belly; and before you came out of the womb, I consecrated you. I appointed you a prophet to the nations.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:6 @ Then I said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! Behold, I do not know how to speak for I am a boy.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:7 @ But Jehovah said to me, Do not say, I am a boy; for you shall go to all that I shall send you. And whatever I command you, you shall speak.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:8 @ Do not be afraid of their faces, for I am with you to deliver you, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:9 @ Then Jehovah put out His hand and touched my mouth. And Jehovah said to me, Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:10 @ Behold, I have today appointed you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to tear down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:11 @ And was the word of Jehovah to me, saying, Jeremiah, what do you see? And I said, I see an almond rod.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:12 @ Then Jehovah said to me, You have seen well; for I will watch over My word to perform it.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:13 @ And the word of Jehovah came to me the second time, saying, What do you see? And I said, I see a boiling pot; and its face is from the face of the north.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:14 @ And Jehovah said to me, Out of the north evil will be set loose on all the inhabitants of the land.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:15 @ For, behold, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, declares Jehovah. And they shall come, and they shall each one set his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and all against its walls all around, and against the cities of Judah.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:16 @ And I will pronounce My judgments against them regarding all their evil, those who have forsaken Me and have burned incense to other gods, and have worshiped the works of their hands.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:17 @ And you must gird up your loins, and rise up and speak to them all that I command you. Do not be terrified before their faces, that I not prostrate you before them.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:18 @ For, behold, today I have made you a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and bronze walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against her princes, against her priests, and to the people of the land.

gltv@Jeremiah:1:19 @ And they shall fight against you; but they shall not overcome you. For I am with you to deliver you, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:1 @ And was the word of Jehovah to me, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:2:2 @ Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, So says Jehovah, I remember you, the kindness of your youth, the love of your espousals, your going after Me in the wilderness, in a land not sown.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:3 @ Israel was holy to Jehovah, the firstfruits of His increase. All that devour him become guilty; evil shall come on them, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:4 @ Hear the word of Jehovah, O house of Jacob and all the families of the house of Israel.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:5 @ So says Jehovah, What iniquity have your fathers found in Me, that they went far from Me and have walked after vanity, and have become vain?

gltv@Jeremiah:2:6 @ Nor did they say, Where is Jehovah who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, who led us in the wilderness, in a land of deserts and of pits, in a dry land and death shade, in a land that no man has passed through, and not a man has lived there?

gltv@Jeremiah:2:7 @ And I brought you into a plentiful land to eat its fruit and its goodness. But when you went in, you defiled My land and made My inheritance an abomination.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:8 @ The priests did not say, Where is Jehovah? And they who handle the law did not know Me. And the shepherds rebelled against Me; and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and went after things not profitable.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:9 @ Therefore, I will contend with you, says Jehovah, and I will contend with your sons' sons.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:10 @ For go to the isles of Kittim and see, and send to Kedar, and carefully consider and see if there is any like this.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:11 @ Has a nation changed its gods, and they were not gods? But My people have changed their Glory without it having profit.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:12 @ Be amazed at this, O heavens, and be horrified; be completely desolated, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:13 @ For My people have committed two evils: they have forsaken Me, the Fountain of living waters, to hew out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:14 @ Is Israel a servant? Or is he a servant of the house? Why has he become a prey?

gltv@Jeremiah:2:15 @ The young lions roared against him; they gave their voice. And they made his land a waste; his cities are ruined, without inhabitant.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:16 @ Also the sons of Noph and Tahpanhes have fed on your crown.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:17 @ Have you not done this to yourself by your forsaking Jehovah your God when He led you by the way?

gltv@Jeremiah:2:18 @ And now what is for you toward the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Sihor? Or what for you toward Assyria, to drink the waters of the River?

gltv@Jeremiah:2:19 @ Your own wickedness shall correct you, and your apostasies shall reprove you. Know, then, and see that your forsaking Jehovah your God is evil and bitter; and My fear is not in you, declares the Lord Jehovah of hosts.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:20 @ For long ago you broke your yoke and tore up your bonds. And you said, I will not transgress, when on every high hill and under every green tree you lay down like a harlot.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:21 @ Yet I planted you a choice vine, wholly a true seed. How then have you turned into the degenerate shoots of an alien vine to Me?

gltv@Jeremiah:2:22 @ Though you wash yourself with potash, and multiply soap for yourself, your iniquity is stained before Me, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:23 @ How can you say, I am not defiled; I have not gone after Baals? See your way in the valley; know what you have done! You are a swift camel crossing her ways;

gltv@Jeremiah:2:24 @ a wild ass used to the wilderness. In the passion of her desire she snuffs up the wind in her time. Who can turn her away? All those who seek her will not tire themselves; in her month they will find her.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:25 @ Withhold your foot from being bare and your throat from thirst. But you said, It is hopeless! For I love strangers, and after them I will go.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:26 @ As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed. They, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets are

gltv@Jeremiah:2:27 @ saying to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You gave us birth. For they turned their back to Me, and not the face. But in the time of their evil, they will say, Arise, and save us!

gltv@Jeremiah:2:28 @ But where are your gods that you have made for yourselves? Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your evil; for according to the number of your cities are your gods, O Judah.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:29 @ Why do you contend with Me? All of you, you have rebelled against Me, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:30 @ In vain I have stricken your sons; they received no correction. Your own sword has devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:31 @ O generation, see the word of Jehovah. Have I been a wilderness to Israel, or a land of darkness? Why do My people say, We roam; we will come no more to You.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:32 @ Can a virgin forget her finery, a bride her attire? Yet My people have forgotten Me days without number.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:33 @ What? Do you trim your ways to seek love? For this reason you have even taught the evil women your ways.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:34 @ Also on your skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents; you did not find them breaking in, but on all these.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:35 @ Yet you say, Because I am innocent, surely His anger shall turn from me. Behold, I will judge with you, because you say, I have not sinned.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:36 @ Why do you go about so much to change your way? You also shall be ashamed of Egypt, as you were ashamed of Assyria.

gltv@Jeremiah:2:37 @ Yes, you shall go out from this place, and your hands on your head. For Jehovah has rejected those in whom you trust, and you will not prosper by them.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:1 @ They say, If a man puts away his wife, and she goes from him and will be for another man, will he return to her again? Would not that land be greatly defiled? But you play the harlot with many lovers; yet would you come back to Me, says Jehovah.?

gltv@Jeremiah:3:2 @ Lift up your eyes on the bare heights and see. Where have you not been lain with? By the highways you have sat for them, like an Arab in the desert. And you have defiled the land with your fornications and with your evil.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:3 @ And the showers are withheld, and there has been no latter rain. And the forehead of a woman, a harlot was to you; you refused to be ashamed.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:4 @ Have you not just now called to Me, saying, My father, You are the friend of my youth?

gltv@Jeremiah:3:5 @ Will He keep His anger forever? Or will He guard it to the end? Behold, you have spoken, and you have done all the evil things that you could.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:6 @ Jehovah also said to me in the days of Josiah the king, Have you seen what the apostate Israel has done? She has gone up on every high hill and under every green tree, and has fornicated there.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:7 @ And after she had done all these, I said, She will return to Me; but she did not return. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:8 @ And I watched. When for all the causes for which the apostate Israel committed adultery, I put her away and gave her a bill of her divorce to her. Yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear, but she also went and fornicated.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:9 @ And it happened, from the wantonness of her harlotry she defiled the land, and committed adultery with stones and with pieces of wood.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:10 @ And yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah has not turned to Me with her whole heart, but with falsehood, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:11 @ And Jehovah said to me, The apostate Israel has justified herself more than treacherous Judah.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:12 @ Go and cry these words toward the north, and say, Return, O apostate Israel, says Jehovah. I will not cause My face to fall on you, for I am merciful, says Jehovah; I will not keep anger forever.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:13 @ Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have rebelled against Jehovah your God and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and you have not obeyed My voice, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:14 @ Return, O apostate sons, declares Jehovah; for I am Lord over you. And I will take you, one from a city, and two from a family, and I will bring you to Zion.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:15 @ And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:16 @ And it will be, when you multiply and increase in the land in those days, says Jehovah, they will no longer say, The ark of the covenant of Jehovah! Nor shall it come to the heart, nor shall they remember it, nor shall they miss it, nor shall it be made any more.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:17 @ At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of Jehovah. And all nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of Jehovah, to Jerusalem. And they shall not walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:18 @ In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north, to the land that I have given for an inheritance to your fathers.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:19 @ But I said, How gladly would I put you among the sons, and give you a pleasant land, a beautiful inheritance among the multitudes of nations! And I said, You shall call Me, My Father; and you shall not turn away from Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:20 @ Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her lover, so you have dealt treacherously with Me, O house of Israel, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:21 @ A voice was heard weeping on the bare heights, pleadings of the sons of Israel; for they have perverted their way; they have forgotten Jehovah their God.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:22 @ Return, O apostate sons; I will heal your apostasies. Behold, we come to You, for You are Jehovah our God.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:23 @ Truly, for delusion comes from the hills, tumult on the mountains. Truly, in Jehovah our God is the salvation of Israel.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:24 @ For the shameful thing has eaten up the labor of our fathers from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.

gltv@Jeremiah:3:25 @ We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covers us. For we have sinned against Jehovah our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day. And we have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:1 @ If you will return, O Israel, says Jehovah, return to Me. And if you will put away your hateful idols out of My face and will not waver,

gltv@Jeremiah:4:2 @ and you will swear, As Jehovah lives, in truth, in justice, and in righteousness; even the nations shall bless themselves in Him, and in Him they will glory.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:3 @ For so says Jehovah to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and do not sow to the thorns.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:4 @ Circumcise yourselves to Jehovah, and take away the foreskin of your heart, O men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, that My fury not go forth like fire and burn, so that no one can put it out; because of the evil of your doings.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:5 @ Declare in Judah, and sound out in Jerusalem, and say, Blow the ram's horn in the land. Cry, fulfill and say, Assemble yourselves and go into the fortified cities.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:6 @ Lift up a banner toward Zion. Flee for safety and do not wait. For I will bring evil from the north and a great ruin.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:7 @ The lion has come up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations has set out. He has left his place to make your land a waste. Your cities will fall into ruins without inhabitant.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:8 @ Clothe yourselves with sackcloth for this, wail and howl. For the fierce anger of Jehovah has not turned back from us.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:9 @ And it will be on that day, says Jehovah, the king's heart and the heart of the rulers shall fail. And the priests shall be amazed; and the prophets shall be astounded.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:10 @ Then I said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! Surely You have greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, You shall have peace, but the sword reaches to the soul.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:11 @ At that time it shall be said to this people and to Jerusalem, A hot wind from the bare hills in the desert toward the daughter of My people, not to sift nor to cleanse!

gltv@Jeremiah:4:12 @ A wind more full than these shall come for Me. Now I also will utter judgments against them.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:13 @ Behold, he shall come up like clouds, and his chariots like a tempest. His horses are swifter than eagles. Woe to us, for we are plundered!

gltv@Jeremiah:4:14 @ O Jerusalem, cleanse your heart from evil so that you may be saved. Until when will your vain thoughts lodge within you?

gltv@Jeremiah:4:15 @ For a voice announces from Dan, and proclaims evil from Mount Ephraim.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:16 @ Tell it to the nations: Behold, proclaim against Jerusalem, Besiegers are coming from a distant land and will set their voice against the cities of Judah.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:17 @ Like keepers of a field, they are against her all around because she has rebelled against Me, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:18 @ Your way and your doings have done these things to you; this is your evil, because it is bitter, because it reaches to your heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:19 @ My bowels! My bowels! I convulse in pain. O walls of my heart! My heart is restless within me. I cannot be silent, for I have heard, O my soul, the sound of the ram's horn, the alarm of war!

gltv@Jeremiah:4:20 @ Ruin on ruin has been called; for the whole land is laid waste. Suddenly my tents are laid waste, my curtains in a moment.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:21 @ Until when must I see the banner and hear the sound of the ram's horn?

gltv@Jeremiah:4:22 @ For My people are foolish. They do not know Me. They are stupid children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but they do not know to do good.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:23 @ I looked on the earth, and, behold! It was without form and void; and to the heavens, and they had no light.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:24 @ I looked on the mountains, and, behold! They quaked, and all the hills were shaken.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:25 @ I looked, and, behold! There was no man, and all the birds of the skies had fled.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:26 @ I looked, and, behold! The fruitful place was a wilderness, and all its cities were broken down before the face of Jehovah, before His glowing anger.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:27 @ For so Jehovah has said, The whole land shall be a desolation; yet I will not make a full end.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:28 @ The earth shall mourn for this, and the heavens above shall grow black, because I have seen, I have purposed and I will not repent, nor will I turn back from it.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:29 @ Every city shall flee from the noise of the horsemen and shooters of the bow. They shall go into thickets and go up in the rocks. Every city shall be forsaken, and not a man shall live in them.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:30 @ And you, O stripped one, what will you do? Though you clothe yourself with crimson, though you adorn yourself with ornaments of gold, though you make large your eyes with paint, you beautify yourself in vain. Lovers despise you; they will seek your life.

gltv@Jeremiah:4:31 @ For I have heard a voice like a woman in labor, the anguish as one bearing her first child, the voice of Zion's daughter gasping and spreading her hands, saying, Woe is to me now, for my soul faints because of murderers.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:1 @ Roam around in Jerusalem's streets and see now, and know, and seek in her plazas if you can find a man, if there is one who does justice, who seeks truth; and I will pardon her.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:2 @ And though they say, As Jehovah lives, surely they swear falsely.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:3 @ O Jehovah, are not Your eyes for the truth? You struck them, but they felt no pain. You consumed them, yet they refused to take correction. They made their faces harder than rock; they have refused to return.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:4 @ So I said, Surely they are poor; they are foolish, for they do not know the way of Jehovah, the ordinance of their God.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:5 @ I will go up for myself to the great men and will speak to them. For they have known the way of Jehovah, the judgment of their God. Surely these have joined in breaking the yoke; they have torn off the bonds.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:6 @ On account of this a lion out of the forest shall strike them; a wolf of the desert shall destroy them; a leopard is watching over their cities. Everyone who goes out from them shall be torn in pieces, because their transgressions are many; their apostasies are multiplied.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:7 @ Why should I pardon you for this? Your sons have forsaken Me and have sworn by No-gods. When I adjured them, they then committed adultery and gathered themselves by troops in a harlot's house.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:8 @ They were like lusty, well fed stallions in the morning, everyone neighing after the wife of his neighbor.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:9 @ Shall I not judge for these things, says Jehovah? And shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

gltv@Jeremiah:5:10 @ Go up on her vine rows and destroy, but do not make a full end. Take away her branches, for they are not Jehovah's.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:11 @ For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have been very devious with Me, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:12 @ They have lied against Jehovah and said, It is not He; and, No evil shall come on us; and, We shall not see sword or famine.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:13 @ And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them; so it shall be done to them.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:14 @ So Jehovah God of Hosts says this: Because you spoke this word, behold! I will make My words fire in your mouth, and these people wood; and it shall consume them.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:15 @ Behold, I will bring a nation on you from far away, O house of Israel, declares Jehovah. It is an enduring nation; it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know, nor understand what they say.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:16 @ Their quiver is as an open grave; they are all mighty men.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:17 @ And they will eat up your harvest and your food, and they will devour your sons and your daughters. They will eat up your flocks and your herds; they will eat up your vines and your fig trees. One shall beat down your fortified cities with the sword, those in which you trust.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:18 @ Yet even in those days, declares Jehovah, I will not make a full end with you.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:19 @ And it will be when you shall say, Why does Jehovah our God do all these things to us? Then you shall answer them, Just as you have forsaken Me and served foreign gods in your land, so you shall serve strangers in a land that is not yours.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:20 @ Declare this in the house of Jacob and cry it in Judah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:5:21 @ Now hear this, O foolish people, even you without heart, who have eyes and do not see. who have ears and do not hear.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:22 @ Do you not fear Me, declares Jehovah? Will you not tremble before My face, that I have placed the sand as the boundary for the sea by a never ending decree, so that it cannot cross over it? And though they toss themselves, yet they cannot prevail; though its waves roar, yet they cannot cross over it.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:23 @ But to this people there is a revolting and a rebellious heart; they have turned, and are gone.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:24 @ And they do not say in their heart, Let us now fear Jehovah our God who gives both the former and the latter rain in its season; He keeps for us the appointed weeks of the harvest.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:25 @ Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good from you.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:26 @ For among My people are found wicked ones. They lie in wait, as one who sets snares. They set a trap, they catch men.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:27 @ Like a cage full of birds, so their houses are full of treachery. On account of this they have become great and grown rich.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:28 @ They have become fat; they shine. Yes, they pass over the deeds of the evil; they do not plead the cause, the cause of the orphan, that they may prosper. And they do not vindicate the right of the needy.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:29 @ Shall I not visit for these things, declares Jehovah? Shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

gltv@Jeremiah:5:30 @ An astounding and horrible thing has happened in the land.

gltv@Jeremiah:5:31 @ The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their hands; and My people love it so. And what will you do at the end of it?

gltv@Jeremiah:6:1 @ O sons of Benjamin take refuge to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem. And blow the ram's horn in Tekoa; and set up a signal over Beth-haccerem. For evil appears out of the north, and great destruction.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:2 @ I will destroy the daughter of Zion, the beautiful and tender one.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:3 @ The shepherds with their flocks shall come to her; they shall pitch tents on her all around. They shall each one feed in his hand.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:4 @ Consecrate war against her. Rise up and let us go up at noon. Woe to us, for the day wanes! For the shadows of the evening are stretched out.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:5 @ Rise up and let us go up by night and destroy her palaces.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:6 @ For so Jehovah of hosts has said, Cut down her trees and pour out a mound against Jerusalem. She is the city to be visited. In her midst is oppression, all of her.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:7 @ As a cistern keeps fresh its waters, so she keeps fresh her evil. Violence and destruction are heard in her. Sickness and wounds are continually before My face.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:8 @ O Jerusalem, take advice, that My soul not be alienated from you; that I not make you a ruin, a land not inhabited.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:9 @ So says Jehovah of hosts, They shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel like a vine. Turn back your hand as a grape gatherer over the tendrils.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:10 @ To whom shall I speak and give warning that they may hear? Behold, their ears are not circumcised, and they cannot listen. Behold, the word of Jehovah is a reproach to them. They have no delight in it.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:11 @ And I am full of the fury of Jehovah; I am weary with holding in. Pour it out on the child in the street and on the circle of the young men together. For even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the elder with fullness of days.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:12 @ And their houses shall be turned to others, fields and wives together. For I will stretch out My hand on the inhabitants of the land, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:13 @ For everyone from the least of them even to the greatest of them cuts off a profit. And from the prophet even to the priest, everyone deals falsely.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:14 @ They have also healed the break of My people slightly, saying, Peace, peace, when there is no peace.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:15 @ Were they ashamed when they made an abomination? They were not at all ashamed, nor did they know to blush. So they shall fall among those who fall. At the time I visit them, they shall be cast down, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:16 @ So says Jehovah, Stand by the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; and you shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk in it.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:17 @ Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Listen to the sound of the ram's horn. But they said, We will not listen.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:18 @ So hear, O nations, and know, O congregation, that which is coming on them.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:19 @ Hear, O earth, behold! I will bring evil on this people, the fruit of their thoughts. For they have not listened to My words, and My law; they also rejected it.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:20 @ Why is this to Me? Frankincense comes from Sheba, and the good cane from a far land? Your burnt offerings are not for acceptance, nor are your sacrifices sweet to Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:21 @ So Jehovah says this, Behold! I am giving stumbling-blocks to this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall stumble on them; a neighbor and his friend shall perish.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:22 @ So says Jehovah, Behold! A people comes from the north country; and a great nation shall be stirred from the sides of the earth.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:23 @ They shall lay hold on bow and javelin; they are cruel and have no mercy. Their voice roars like the sea; and they ride on horses, arrayed like a man for the battle against you, O daughter of Zion.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:24 @ We have heard the rumor of it. Our hands have dropped down; anguish has seized us, pain like a travailing woman.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:25 @ Do not go out into the field or walk by the way, because of the sword of the enemy and terror from every side.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:26 @ O daughter of My people, put on sackcloth and roll in ashes. Make mourning for yourself, as for an only son, most bitter mourning; for the ravager shall suddenly come on us.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:27 @ I have set you up as assayer, an examiner among My people, that you may know and examine their way.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:28 @ They are all rebellious revolters, walkers in slander. All of them are as bronze and iron; they are corrupters.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:29 @ The bellows blow, the lead is consumed from the fire, the refiner refines in vain; for the evil is not separated.

gltv@Jeremiah:6:30 @ Men will call them reprobate silver, for Jehovah has rejected them.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:1 @ The word that came to from Jehovah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:7:2 @ Stand in the gate of the house of Jehovah and call out there this word, and say, Hear the word of Jehovah all Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:3 @ So says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will let you dwell in this place.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:4 @ Do not trust yourself to lying words, saying, The temple of Jehovah! The temple of Jehovah! This is the temple of Jehovah!

gltv@Jeremiah:7:5 @ For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if you truly practice justice between a man and his neighbor;

gltv@Jeremiah:7:6 @ if you do not oppress the stranger, the orphan, and the widow; and do not shed innocent blood in this place, or walk after other gods to your hurt;

gltv@Jeremiah:7:7 @ then I will let you dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from forever and to forever.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:8 @ Behold, you trust for yourself on lying words without being of use.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:9 @ Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom you do not know?

gltv@Jeremiah:7:10 @ And will you then come and stand before Me in this house on which My name is called, and say, We are delivered in order to do all those detestable things.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:11 @ Has this house on which My name is called become a den of violent ones in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:12 @ But go now to My place which was in Shiloh, where I made My name dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the evil of My people Israel.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:13 @ And now, because you have done all these works, says Jehovah, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you did not hear. Yea, I called you, but you did not answer.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:14 @ And I will do to the house on which My name is called, in which you are trusting, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:15 @ And I will cast you out from My face as I cast out all your brothers, all the seed of Ephraim.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:16 @ And you, do not pray for this people; do not lift up cry or prayer for them. Do not intercede with Me, for I do not hear you.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:17 @ Do you not see what they are doing in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

gltv@Jeremiah:7:18 @ The sons gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:19 @ Do they provoke Me, says Jehovah? Is it not themselves, to the shame of their own faces?

gltv@Jeremiah:7:20 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, My anger and My fury will be cured out on this place, on man and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground. And it will burn and will not be put out.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:21 @ So says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat flesh.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:22 @ For I did not speak to your fathers, nor command them in the day that I brought them out from the land of Egypt, concerning matters of burnt offerings and sacrifices.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:23 @ But I commanded them this thing, saying, Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people. Also, Walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, so that it may be well with you.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:24 @ But they did not listen nor bow their ear. But they walked in their own plans, in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:25 @ Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have even sent to you all My servants, the prophets, daily rising up early and sending.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:26 @ Yet they did not listen to Me nor bow their ear, but they stiffened their neck. They did more evil than their fathers.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:27 @ And you shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. And you will call to them, but they will not answer you.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:28 @ But you shall say to them, This is the nation that does not obey the voice of Jehovah their God, nor receive instruction. Truth has perished, and it is cut off from their mouth.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:29 @ Cut off your crown and throw it away, and take up a dirge on the heights. For Jehovah has rejected and forsaken the generation of His wrath.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:30 @ For the sons of Judah have done evil in My eyes, says Jehovah. They have set their idols in the house on which is called My name, in order to defile it.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:31 @ They have built the high places of Tophet in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I did not command, nor did it come into My heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:32 @ So, behold, the days come, declares Jehovah, when it shall no more be called Tophet, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter. For they shall bury in Tophet from lack of a place.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:33 @ And the bodies of this people shall be food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth; and no one shall frighten them away.

gltv@Jeremiah:7:34 @ Then I will cause the voice of gladness to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem, even the voice of joy, and the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride. For the land shall become a waste.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:1 @ At that time, declares Jehovah, they will bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of its rulers, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:2 @ And they shall spread them before the sun and the moon and all the host of the heavens whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshiped. They shall not be gathered or buried; they shall be dung on the face of the ground.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:3 @ And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the rest of those who remain of this evil family, who remain there in all the places where I have driven them, says Jehovah of hosts.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:4 @ And you shall say to them, So says Jehovah, Shall they fall and not rise up? Or shall one turn away and not return?

gltv@Jeremiah:8:5 @ Why has this people, Jerusalem, turned away to a never ending apostasy? They hold fast to deceit. They refuse to return.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:6 @ I listened and heard. They did not speak so. No man repented because of this evil, saying, What have I done? Everyone turned in their own courses, as a horse rushes into the battle.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:7 @ Also the stork in the heavens knows her seasons, and the turtledove and the swallow and the thrush observe the time of their coming. But My people do not know the judgment of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:8 @ How do you say, We are wise, and the law of Jehovah is with us? Behold, the lying pen of the scribes has certainly worked deceit.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:9 @ The wise are ashamed; they are terrified and are captured. Behold, they have rejected the word of Jehovah, and what wisdom is theirs?

gltv@Jeremiah:8:10 @ So I will give their wives to others, their fields to those who shall inherit. For everyone from the least even to the greatest cuts off a profit. From the prophet even to the priest, everyone deals falsely.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:11 @ For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of My people slightly, saying, Peace, peace! And there is no peace.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:12 @ Were they ashamed when they had done hateful things? They were not even at all ashamed, nor did they know how to blush. So they shall fall among those who fall. In the time of their punishment they will stumble, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:13 @ I will utterly consume them, says Jehovah. No grapes will be on the vine, or figs on the fig tree; even the leaf withers. And I will give to them those who pass over them.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:14 @ Why do we sit still? Gather yourselves, and let us enter into the fortified cities; and let us stand still there. For Jehovah our God has made us stand still there, and He has made us drink poisonous water, because we have sinned against Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:15 @ We looked for peace, but no good came; for a time of healing, but, behold, terror!

gltv@Jeremiah:8:16 @ The snorting of his horses was heard from Dan; all the land trembles at the sound of the neighing of his stallions. For they come and devour the land and its fullness, the city and those who live in it.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:17 @ For behold, I will send serpents among you, vipers for which there is no charm; and they will bite you, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:18 @ I suffer from desolation; my heart is sick within me, beyond grief.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:19 @ Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a distant land! Is not Jehovah in Zion? Or is not her king in her? Why have they provoked Me with their carved images, with foreign vanities?

gltv@Jeremiah:8:20 @ Harvest has passed; the summer has ended, and we are not delivered.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:21 @ For the breaking of the daughter of my people, I am broken. I mourn; horror has taken hold on me.

gltv@Jeremiah:8:22 @ Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no healer there? Why then has the healing of the daughter of My people not come?

gltv@Jeremiah:9:1 @ Oh, that my head were waters and my eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!

gltv@Jeremiah:9:2 @ Oh, that I had a lodging place for travelers in the wilderness, that I might leave my people and go away from them! For they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous ones.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:3 @ And they bend their tongues, their bow is a lie. And they are not mighty for the truth on the earth, for they go from evil to evil. They also do not know Me, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:4 @ Let everyone be on guard against his neighbor, and do not trust any brother. For every brother will supplant, and every neighbor will walk as a slanderer.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:5 @ And everyone will deceive his neighbor, and they will not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies. They weary themselves to commit iniquity.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:6 @ Your home is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know Me says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:7 @ For this reason, so says Jehovah of Hosts, Behold, I will refine them and test them. For what else can I do because of the daughter of My people?

gltv@Jeremiah:9:8 @ Their tongue is a murdering arrow; it speaks deceit. One speaks peace with his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he sets his ambush.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:9 @ Shall I not visit them for these things? says Jehovah. Or shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

gltv@Jeremiah:9:10 @ I will take up a weeping and a wailing for the mountains and a mourning for the pastures of the wilderness. For they are burned up, without a man passing through. Yea, they do not hear the voice of cattle. From the fowl of the heavens and to the beast, they have fled; they are gone.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:11 @ And I will make Jerusalem ruins, a den of jackals; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without inhabitant.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:12 @ Who is the wise man that can understand this? And he to whom the mouth of Jehovah has spoken, that he may declare it? Why does the land perish? It is burned up like the wilderness, so that no one passes through.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:13 @ And Jehovah says, Because they have forsaken My law which I set before them, and have not obeyed My voice, and have not walked in it;

gltv@Jeremiah:9:14 @ but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the Baals, which their fathers taught them;

gltv@Jeremiah:9:15 @ so Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, says this: Behold, I will feed them, this people with wormwood, and make them drink poison waters.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:16 @ I will also scatter them among the nations which they have not known, nor their fathers. And I will send the sword after them until I have consumed them.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:17 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, Consider and call for the wailers, that they may come. And send for the wise women, that they may come.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:18 @ And let them make haste and take up a lament over us, so that our eyes may run down with tears, and waters flow from our eyelids.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:19 @ For the voice of lament is heard from Zion. How we are ravaged! We are greatly ashamed because we have forsaken the land; because they have thrown down our dwellings.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:20 @ Yet hear the word of Jehovah, women. And let your ear receive the word of His mouth, and teach your daughters a lament, and each one her neighbor a dirge.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:21 @ For death has come into our windows, entering into our fortified palaces, to cut off the children from the street, the young men from the plazas.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:22 @ Speak, So says Jehovah, Even the bodies of men shall fall as dung on the open field, and as the swath after the reaper, and no one shall gather them.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:23 @ So says Jehovah, Do not let the wise glory in his wisdom, and do not let the mighty glory in his might. Do not let the rich glory in his riches.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:24 @ But let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am Jehovah, doing kindness, justice and righteousness in the earth; for I delight in these, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:9:25 @ Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will punish all the circumcised with foreskin:

gltv@Jeremiah:9:26 @ Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the sons of Ammon, and Moab, and all those trimmed on the edges of their beards, who dwell in the wilderness. For all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel, those uncircumcised of heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:1 @ Hear the word which Jehovah speaks to you, O house of Israel.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:2 @ So says Jehovah, You shall not be goaded to the way of the nations; and do not be terrified at the signs of the heavens; for the nations were terrified at them.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:3 @ For the ordinances of the people are vanity. For one cuts a tree out of the forest with the axe, the work of the hands of the craftsman.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:4 @ They adorn it with silver and with gold; they fasten them with nails and hammers, so that it will not wobble.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:5 @ They are like a rounded post, and they cannot speak; they must surely be carried, because they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them, for they cannot do evil nor good; it is not with them.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:6 @ There is none like You, O Jehovah; You are great, and Your name is great in might.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:7 @ Who would not fear You, O King of nations? For it is fitting to You, because there is none like You among all the wise of the nations, and in all their kingdoms.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:8 @ But they are at once foolish and animal like; their tree is an instruction of vanities.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:9 @ Silver beaten into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the craftsman and the hands of the goldsmith. Violet and purple is their clothing; they are all the works of skillful ones.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:10 @ But Jehovah is the true God, He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to stand His indignation.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:11 @ So you shall say to them, The gods who have not made the heavens and the earth, they shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:12 @ It is He who made the earth by His power, who established the world by His wisdom, and who stretched out the heavens by His understanding.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:13 @ When He utters His voice, there is a noise of waters in the heavens. He causes the vapors to go up from the ends of the earth; He makes lightnings for the rain and brings forth the wind out of His storehouses.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:14 @ Every man is stupid from lack of knowledge; every refiner is put to shame by the carved image. For his molten image is a lie and no breath is in them.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:15 @ They are vanity, the work of delusion. In the time of their judgment they shall perish.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:16 @ The Portion of Jacob is not like these. For He is the Former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; Jehovah of Hosts is His name.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:17 @ Gather up your bundle from the ground, you who live under the siege.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:18 @ For so says Jehovah, Behold, I will sling out the dwellers of the land at this time, and I will distress them so that they may find Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:19 @ Woe to me for my breaking! My wound is grievous. But I said, Truly this is a malady, and I must bear it.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:20 @ My tent is ravaged, and all my cords are broken. My sons went away from me and they are not. There is no stretching out my tent any more, or setting up my curtains.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:21 @ For the pastors have become stupid, and they have not sought Jehovah. Therefore, they shall not be blessed, and all their flock shall be scattered.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:22 @ Behold, the sound of report! It comes, and a great commotion from the land of the north, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a den of jackals.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:23 @ O Jehovah, I know that his way does not belong to man; it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:24 @ O Jehovah, correct me, only with judgment, not in Your anger, that You do not bring me to nothing.

gltv@Jeremiah:10:25 @ Pour out Your fury on the nations who do not know You, and on the families who do not call on Your name. For they have eaten up Jacob. Yea, they have devoured him and have destroyed him, and they have made his dwelling place desolate.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:1 @ The word that came to from Jehovah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:11:2 @ Hear the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem,

gltv@Jeremiah:11:3 @ and say to them, So says Jehovah, the God of Israel, Cursed is the man who does not obey the words of this covenant,

gltv@Jeremiah:11:4 @ which I commanded your fathers in the day I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey My voice and do them according to all that I command you, so that you shall be My people, and I will be your God;

gltv@Jeremiah:11:5 @ in order to establish the oath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. Then I answered and said, Amen, O Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:6 @ And Jehovah said to me, Declare all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear the words of this covenant and do them.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:7 @ For I solemnly warned your fathers in the day I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, to this day rising early and warning, saying, Obey My voice.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:8 @ Yet they did not obey nor bow down their ear, but each one walked in the stubbornness of their evil heart. And I will bring on them all the words of this covenant which I commanded them to do, but they did not do.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:9 @ And Jehovah said to me, A plot is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:10 @ They have turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear My words. And they went after other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I cut with their fathers.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:11 @ So Jehovah says this: Behold, I will bring evil on them from which they shall not be able to escape. And though they cry to Me, I will not listen to them.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:12 @ Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem shall go and cry to the gods to whom they burned incense. But they not at all are able to save them in the time of their trouble.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:13 @ For according to the number of your cities were your gods, O Judah; yea, according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have set up altars to that shameful thing, altars to burn incense to Baal.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:14 @ And you, do not pray for this people; and do not lift up a cry or prayer for them. For I will not hear in the time they cry to Me for their trouble.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:15 @ What is to My beloved in My house, since she has committed her many evils? And has the holy flesh caused your evil to pass from you? How then do you exult?

gltv@Jeremiah:11:16 @ Jehovah called your name, a green olive tree, fair, with fine fruit. With the sound of a great storm, He has set fire to it, and its branches are worthless.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:17 @ And Jehovah of hosts, who planted you, has spoken evil against you, because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah which they have done to themselves, to provoke Me to anger by burning incense to Baal.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:18 @ And Jehovah made me know. And I knew. Then You showed me their doings.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:19 @ And I was like a docile lamb being brought to the slaughter; and I did not know that they had plotted schemes against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with its fruit; and let us cut him off from the land of the living so that his name may be remembered no more.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:20 @ But, O Jehovah of Hosts who judges with righteousness, who tries the reins and the heart, let me see Your vengeance on them. For to You I have laid open my cause.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:21 @ For this reason, so says Jehovah concerning the men of Anathoth who seek your life, saying, Do not prophesy in the name of Jehovah, that you do not die by our hand.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:22 @ So Jehovah of Hosts says this: Behold, I will punish them. The young men shall die by the sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by famine.

gltv@Jeremiah:11:23 @ And there shall be no survivor of them, for I will bring evil on the men of Anathoth, even the year of their punishment.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:1 @ Righteous are You, O Jehovah, when I might complain to You, yet let me speak with You of Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are all those who deal treacherously at ease?

gltv@Jeremiah:12:2 @ You planted them; yea, they take root, they grow, they even make fruit. You are near in their mouth, and far from their reins.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:3 @ But You know me, O Jehovah. You have seen me and tried my heart toward You. Pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and devote them to the day of slaughter.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:4 @ Until when shall the land mourn, and the grass of every field wither from the evil of those who dwell in it? The beasts and the birds are swept away, because they said, He will not see our last end.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:5 @ If you have run with footmen, and they wore you out, then how can you compete with horses? And if you feel secure in the land of peace, then how will you do in the swelling of Jordan?

gltv@Jeremiah:12:6 @ For even your brothers and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you; even they have fully called after you. Do not believe them, though they speak good things to you.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:7 @ I have forsaken My house; I have left My inheritance. I have given the beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:8 @ My inheritance has become as a lion in the forest to Me; she gave out her voice against Me; on account of this I hated her.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:9 @ My inheritance is like a speckled bird to Me; the birds all around are against her. Come, gather all the beasts of the field, bring them to devour.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:10 @ Many shepherds have destroyed My vineyard; they have trampled My portion under foot; they have made My pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:11 @ One has made it desolate; it mourns to Me. The whole land is a desolation, but no man lays it to heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:12 @ The ravagers have come on all bare heights through the wilderness, for the sword of Jehovah devours from one end of the land even to the other end of the land. There is no peace for any flesh.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:13 @ They have sown wheat, but they have reaped thorns. They are worn out, but they do not profit. And they shall be ashamed of your harvests, because of the glow of the anger of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:14 @ So says Jehovah against all My evil neighbors who touch the inheritance which I have caused My people Israel to inherit: Behold, I will tear them from their land, and I will tear the house of Judah from among them.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:15 @ And it shall be, after I have torn them out, I will return and have pity on them and will bring them again, each man to his inheritance and each man to his land.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:16 @ And it shall be, if they will carefully learn the ways of My people, to swear by My name, As Jehovah lives, as they taught My people to swear by Baal, then they will be built in the midst of My people.

gltv@Jeremiah:12:17 @ But if they will not obey, then I will tear and destroy that nation, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:1 @ So says Jehovah to me, Go and buy for yourself a linen band, and put it on your loins, and do not put it in water.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:2 @ So I bought a band according to the word of Jehovah and put it on my loins.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:3 @ And the word of Jehovah came to me a second time, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:13:4 @ Take the band that you bought, which is on your loins, and rise up. Go to Euphrates and hide it there in the cleft of the rock.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:5 @ So I went and hid it by Euphrates, as Jehovah commanded me.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:6 @ And it happened at the end of many days, Jehovah said to me, Rise up, go to Euphrates and take the band from there, which I commanded you to hide there.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:7 @ And I went to Euphrates and dug, and I took the band from the place, there where I had hidden it. And behold, the band was rotted! It was not useful for anything.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:8 @ Then the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:13:9 @ So says Jehovah, So I will spoil the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:10 @ This evil people who refuse to hear My words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them and to worship them, shall even be like this band which is not useful for anything.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:11 @ For as this band holds fast to the loins of a man, so I have caused the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah to cling to Me, says Jehovah, to be to Me for a people, and for a name, and for praise, and for glory; but they would not listen.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:12 @ So you will speak to them this word: So says Jehovah, God of Israel, Every skin shall be filled with wine. And they shall say to you, Do we not know full well that every skin shall be filled with wine?

gltv@Jeremiah:13:13 @ Then you shall say to them, So says Jehovah, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit on David's throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:14 @ And I will smash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, declares Jehovah; I will not pity nor spare nor have compassion, to keep them from their destruction.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:15 @ Hear and give ear; do not be proud, for Jehovah has spoken.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:16 @ Give glory to Jehovah your God before He brings darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains. Yea, while you look for light, He puts it into death shade, setting up deep gloom.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:17 @ But if you will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride. And my eye shall bitterly weep and run down with tears, because the flock of Jehovah was captured.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:18 @ Say to the king and to the queen mother, Humble yourselves, sit down. For the crown of your glory will come down from your head places.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:19 @ The cities of the south have been shut up, and none are opening. Judah has been exiled; all of it has been peacefully exiled.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:20 @ Lift up your eyes and behold those who come from the north. Where is the flock that was given to you, your beautiful flock?

gltv@Jeremiah:13:21 @ What will you say when He visits you? For you taught them to be rulers over you for a head. Do not pangs seize you like a woman in travail?

gltv@Jeremiah:13:22 @ And if you say in your heart, Why do these things come upon me? It is because of the greatness of your iniquity. Your skirts are bared; your heels suffer violence.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:23 @ Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard his spots? Then you also may do good who are accustomed to doing evil.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:24 @ And I will scatter them as the stubble that passes away to the wilderness wind.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:25 @ This is your lot, the share of your measure from Me, declares Jehovah, because you have forgotten Me and have trusted in falsehood.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:26 @ So I also have stripped off your skirts over your face, that your shame may appear.

gltv@Jeremiah:13:27 @ I have seen your adulteries and your neighings, the plot of your infidelity, your abominations on the hills, in the fields. Woe to you, O Jerusalem! Will you not be made clean? Now long will it still be?

gltv@Jeremiah:14:1 @ That which was the word of Jehovah to concerning the matter of droughts.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:2 @ Judah mourns, and her gates droop. They put on mourning for the land, and the cry of Jerusalem has gone up.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:3 @ And their nobles have sent their little ones for water. They came to the cisterns; they found no water. They returned with their vessels empty. They were ashamed and confounded and covered their head.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:4 @ Because the ground was cracked, for there was no rain in the land; the plowmen were ashamed; they covered their head.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:5 @ For even the doe calved in the field and forsook it because there was no grass.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:6 @ And the wild asses stood in the high places; they snuffed up the wind like jackals; their eyes failed because there was no grass.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:7 @ O Jehovah, though our iniquities testify against us, act for Your name's sake; for our apostasies are many; we have sinned against You.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:8 @ O Hope of Israel, its Savior in time of trouble, why should You be as a stranger in the land, and as a traveler who turns aside to lodge?

gltv@Jeremiah:14:9 @ Why should You be as one who is stunned, as one mighty yet cannot save? Yet You, O Jehovah, are in our midst, and Your name is called on us. Do not leave us.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:10 @ So says Jehovah to this people: So they have loved to wander; they have not restrained their feet; therefore, Jehovah does not accept them. He will now remember their iniquity and punish their sins.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:11 @ Then Jehovah said to me, Do not pray for good for this people.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:12 @ I will not listen to their cry when they fast; and when they offer burnt offering and grain offering I will not accept them. But I will consume them by the sword, and by famine, and by the plague.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:13 @ Then I said, Ah, O Lord Jehovah! Behold, the prophets are saying to them, You shall not see the sword, nor shall you have famine, but I will give you true peace in this place.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:14 @ And Jehovah said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in My name. I did not send them and I have not commanded them, nor did I speak to them. They prophesy to you a false vision, and a worthless divination, and the deceit of their heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:15 @ So Jehovah says this concerning the prophets who prophesy in My name, and I did not send them; yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land: By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:16 @ And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword. And none will bury them, either them, their wives, or their sons, or their daughters. For I will pour evil on them.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:17 @ And you shall speak this word to them: Let my eyes run down with tears night and day, and do not let them cease. For the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great break, with a very grievous blow.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:18 @ If I go out into the field, then I see those pierced with the sword. And if I enter into the city, then, behold, diseases of famine! Yes, both the prophet and the priest have gone up into a land that they do not know.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:19 @ Have You completely rejected Judah? Or has Your soul hated Zion? Why have You stricken us and no healing is for us? We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a healing time, but, behold, terror!

gltv@Jeremiah:14:20 @ We acknowledge our wickedness, O Jehovah, the iniquity of our fathers; for we have sinned against You.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:21 @ For Your name's sake, do not spurn us; do not dishonor the throne of Your glory. Remember, and do not break Your covenant with us.

gltv@Jeremiah:14:22 @ Among the vanities of the nations are there any who make rain fall? Or can the heavens give showers? Is it not You, O Jehovah our God? Then we will wait for You; for You do all these things.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:1 @ Then Jehovah said to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before Me, My soul could not be toward this people. Send them out from before My face; yea, let them go out.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:2 @ And it will be, if they say to you, Where shall we go? Then you will tell them, So says Jehovah, Those who are for death, go to death; and those for the sword, to the sword; and those for the famine, to the famine; and those for the captivity, to the captivity.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:3 @ And I will set over them four kinds, says Jehovah: the sword to kill, and the dogs to drag off, and the birds of the heaven and the beast of the earth to devour and destroy.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:4 @ And I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah; for what he did in Jerusalem.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:5 @ For who shall have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Or who shall weep over you? Or who shall turn aside to ask your welfare?

gltv@Jeremiah:15:6 @ You have forsaken Me, says Jehovah. You have gone backward, so I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you; I am weary of repenting.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:7 @ And I will sift them with a fork in the gates of the land; I will bereave; I will destroy My people, for they do not turn from their ways.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:8 @ Their widows are more numerous about Me than the sand of the seas. I have brought for them a ravager at noonday against the mother of a young man; I caused anguish and terror to fall on her suddenly.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:9 @ She who bore seven now languishes; she has breathed out her life; her sun has gone down while it was still day. She has been ashamed and humiliated, and I will deliver the rest of them to the sword before their enemies, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:10 @ Woe to me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife, and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not loaned, nor have they loaned to me; yet everyone curses me.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:11 @ Jehovah said, Truly I will free you for good. Truly I will cause the enemy to entreat you in the time of evil and in the time of distress.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:12 @ Can one break iron, iron or bronze from the north?

gltv@Jeremiah:15:13 @ Your wealth and your treasures I will give for prey, not for price, but for all your sins, even in all your borders.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:14 @ And I will make you pass with your enemies into a land you do not know. For a fire has been kindled in My anger; it shall burn against you.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:15 @ O Jehovah, You know. Remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on those who seek to hurt me. Do not take me away in Your long-suffering; know that I bear reproach for You.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:16 @ Your words were found and I ate them; and Your Word was to me the joy and gladness of my heart. For I am called by Your name, O Jehovah, God of hosts.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:17 @ I did not sit in the circle of merrymakers, nor exult. I sat alone because of Your hand; for You have filled me with indignation.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:18 @ Why has my pain been without end and my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? You surely are to me like deceitful waters which cannot be trusted.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:19 @ So Jehovah says this: If you return, then I will bring you again; you shall stand before Me. And if you take the precious from the worthless, you shall be as My mouth. Let them turn back to you, but do not return to them.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:20 @ And I will make you a fortified wall of bronze to this people. And they shall fight against you, but they shall not overcome you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:15:21 @ And I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the evil ones.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:1 @ The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:16:2 @ You shall not take a wife for yourself, nor shall you have sons or daughters in this place.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:3 @ For so says Jehovah concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who fathered them in this land:

gltv@Jeremiah:16:4 @ They shall die of deadly diseases; they shall not be mourned nor shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the face of the earth. And they shall be consumed by the sword and by famine, and their bodies shall be food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:5 @ For so says Jehovah, Do not enter into the house of mourning. Do not go to weep or moan for them. For I have taken away My peace with loving-kindness and compassions from this people says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:6 @ Both the great and the small shall die in this land. They shall not be buried, nor shall men mourn for them, nor cut himself, nor make himself bald for them.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:7 @ Nor shall anyone break for them in mourning, to comfort him for the dead. Nor shall they give them the cup of comfort to drink for one's father or one's mother.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:8 @ Also you shall not go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat and drink.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:9 @ For so says Jehovah of Hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:10 @ And it shall be, when you declare to this people all these words, they will say to you, Why has Jehovah pronounced all this great evil against us? Or what is our iniquity, or what our sin that we have committed against Jehovah our God?

gltv@Jeremiah:16:11 @ Then you shall say to them, Because your fathers have forsaken Me, says Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My law.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:12 @ And you have done more evil than your fathers. For, behold, you each one walk after the stubbornness of his evil heart, without listening to Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:13 @ And I will cast you out of this land into a land that you do not know, you nor your fathers. And there you shall serve other gods day and night, where I will not grant you favor.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:14 @ So, behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that it shall no more be said, As Jehovah lives who brought up the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:15 @ But rather, As Jehovah lives who brought up the sons of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands, there where He had driven them. And I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:16 @ Behold, I will send for many fishermen, says Jehovah. And they shall fish them. And after this I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them, from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:17 @ For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face; their iniquity is not hidden from My eyes.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:18 @ And first I will twice repay their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land with the bodies of their hateful things. Yea, their hateful idols have filled My inheritance.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:19 @ O Jehovah, my strength and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the nations shall come to You from the ends of the earth and say, Our fathers have inherited only lies, vanity, and there is no profit in them.

gltv@Jeremiah:16:20 @ Can a man make gods to himself? But they are not gods!

gltv@Jeremiah:16:21 @ And, behold, I will make them know; this time I will cause them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My name is Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:1 @ The sin of Judah is engraved with an iron pen. It is carved on the tablet of their heart with the point of a diamond, and on the horns of your altars,

gltv@Jeremiah:17:2 @ even while their sons remember their altars and their Asherahs by the green trees on the high hills.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:3 @ O My mountain in the field! I will give your wealth, all your treasures, for prey, your high places for sin throughout all your borders.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:4 @ And you, even through yourself, will let drop from your inheritance which I gave you. And I will cause you to serve your enemies in a land which you do not know. For you have kindled a fire in My anger; it will burn forever.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:5 @ So says Jehovah, Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and who makes flesh his arm, and who turns aside his heart from Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:6 @ For he shall be like a juniper in the desert, and shall not see when good comes. But he shall live in parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land that is not inhabited.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:7 @ Blessed is the man who trusts in Jehovah, and Jehovah is his trust.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:8 @ For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters. It sends out its roots by the stream, and it will not fear when the heat comes; but its foliage will be green; and it is not anxious in the year of drought, nor will it cease from yielding fruit.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:9 @ The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is incurable; who can know it?

gltv@Jeremiah:17:10 @ I, Jehovah, search the heart, I try the reins, even to give to each man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:11 @ As a partridge broods and does not hatch, so is he who makes riches, and not by right; it will leave him in the middle of his days, and in his end he will be a fool.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:12 @ A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:13 @ O Jehovah, the Hope of Israel, all who forsake You shall be ashamed. Those who depart from Me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken Jehovah, the Fountain of living waters.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:14 @ Heal me, O Jehovah, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved; for You are my praise.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:15 @ Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of Jehovah? Let it come now.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:16 @ And I have not hurried away from shepherding after You, nor have I desired the woeful day. You surely know that the utterance of my lips was before Your face.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:17 @ Do not be a terror to me; You are my refuge in the day of evil.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:18 @ Let those who persecute me be ashamed, but do not let me be ashamed. Let them be terrified, but do not let me be terrified. Bring on them the day of evil, and break them with double breaking.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:19 @ So said Jehovah to me, Go and stand in the gate of the sons of the people, that by which the kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:20 @ And say to them, Hear the word of Jehovah, kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the residents of Jerusalem who enter in by these gates.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:22 @ And do not carry a burden from your houses on the sabbath day, nor do any work, but keep the sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:23 @ But they did not obey nor bow down their ear, but they made their neck stiff, not to hear, nor to receive instruction.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:24 @ And it shall be, if you carefully listen to me, says Jehovah, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but keep the sabbath day holy, to do no work in it,

gltv@Jeremiah:17:25 @ even kings and rulers sitting on the throne of David shall enter into the gates of this city, riding on chariots and on horses, they and their rulers, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And this city will be inhabited forever.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:26 @ And they will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowland, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and grain offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:17:27 @ But if you will not listen to Me to keep the sabbath day holy, and not to carry a burden and enter at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in her gates. And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem; yea, it shall not be put out.

gltv@Jeremiah:18:2 @ Rise up and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear My words.

gltv@Jeremiah:18:3 @ Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he was working a work on the wheel.

gltv@Jeremiah:18:4 @ And the vessel that he made in clay was ruined in the hand of the potter. So repeating he made it, another vessel, as it seemed good in the potter's eyes to make it.

gltv@Jeremiah:18:20 @ Should evil be repaid for good? For they have dug a pit for my soul. Remember, I stood before You to speak good concerning them, to turn Your wrath from them.

gltv@Jeremiah:18:21 @ So give their sons to the famine, and give them over to the hand of the sword. And let their wives be bereaved, and be widows, and let their men be the slain of death, their young men those struck by the sword in battle.

gltv@Jeremiah:19:5 @ They have also built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I never commanded nor spoke, nor did it come into My heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:19:6 @ So, behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that this place shall be no more called Tophet, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but Valley of Slaughter.

gltv@Jeremiah:19:11 @ and shall say to them, So says Jehovah of Hosts, Even so I will break this people and this city, as one breaks the potter's vessel that cannot be restored again. And they shall bury in Tophet, since no place is left to bury.

gltv@Jeremiah:20:8 @ For whenever I speak, I cry out, I proclaim violence and ruin; for the word of Jehovah has been to me a reproach and derision all the day.

gltv@Jeremiah:20:9 @ And I said, I will not mention Him or speak any more in His name. But His Word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary of holding in, and I could not prevail.

gltv@Jeremiah:22:8 @ And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall each say to one another, why has Jehovah done this to this great city?

gltv@Jeremiah:22:9 @ Then they will answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of Jehovah their God, and worshiped other gods and served them.

gltv@Jeremiah:22:10 @ Weep not for the dead nor moan for him; weep bitterly for him who goes away, for he shall return no more, nor see the land of his birth.

gltv@Jeremiah:22:11 @ For so says Jehovah concerning Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned in his father Josiah's place, who went forth from this place. He shall not return there any more.

gltv@Jeremiah:22:17 @ But your eyes and your heart lust for nothing but your unjust gain, and to shed innocent blood, and oppression, and to do violence.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:1 @ Woe to shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:2 @ Because of this, so says Jehovah the God of Israel against the shepherds who shepherd My people: You have scattered My flock, and have driven them away, and have not visited them. Behold, I will visit on you the evil of your doings, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:3 @ And I will gather the remnant of My flock out of all the lands where I have driven them there, and will bring them again to their fold. And they shall be fruitful and multiply.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:4 @ And I will raise up shepherds over them who will shepherd them. And they will fear no more, nor be terrified; nor will they be missing anything, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:5 @ Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will raise to David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and act wisely, and shall do justice and righteousness in the earth.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:6 @ In His days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely. And this is His name by which He shall be called, Jehovah our Righteousness.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:7 @ Behold, so the days come, says Jehovah, that they shall no more say, As Jehovah lives, who brought the sons of Israel up out of the land of Egypt;

gltv@Jeremiah:23:8 @ but, As Jehovah lives, who brought up and led the seed of the house of Israel out of the land of the north, and from all the lands where I have driven them there. And they shall dwell on their own land.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:9 @ My heart within me is broken concerning the prophets; all my bones shake. I am like a drunken man, and like a man overcome by wine, because of Jehovah, and because of the words of His holiness.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:10 @ For the land is full of adulterers. For the land mourns because of a curse. The pastures of the wilderness are dried up. And their course is evil, and their might is not right.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:11 @ For both prophet and priest are ungodly; yea, I have found their evil in My house, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:12 @ So their way shall be to them as slippery places in the darkness; they shall be driven out and fall by it. For I will bring evil on them, the year of their judgment, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:13 @ And I have seen frivolity among the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal and caused My people Israel to go astray.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:14 @ I have also seen a horrible thing among the prophets of Jerusalem; they commit adultery and walk in falsehood. And they make the hands of evildoers strong, so that not a man returns from his evil. They are all of them like Sodom to Me, and her inhabitants like Gomorrah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:15 @ So Jehovah of Hosts says this concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them wormwood, and make them drink poisonous water, for ungodliness has gone forth from the prophets of Jerusalem into all the land.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:16 @ So says Jehovah of hosts, do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you; they make you vain; they speak a vision of their own heart, not out of the mouth of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:17 @ They say to those who despise Me, Jehovah has said, You shall have peace. And they say to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart, Evil shall not come on you.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:19 @ Behold, the tempest of Jehovah has gone forth in fury, even a whirling tempest. It will whirl on the head of the wicked.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:20 @ The anger of Jehovah shall not turn back until He has executed, and until He has set up the purposes of His heart. In latter days you shall understand it perfectly.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:21 @ I have not sent the prophets, yet they ran; I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:23 @ Am I a God near by, says Jehovah, and not a God from afar?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:24 @ Or can anyone hide himself in secret places so that I do not see him, says Jehovah? Do I not fill the heavens and the earth, says Jehovah?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:25 @ I have heard what the prophets said, those who prophesy lies in My name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:26 @ How long is this there in the heart of the prophets, the prophets of lies; yea, the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:27 @ They plot to cause My people to forget My name by their dreams which they tell, each one to his neighbor, even as their fathers have forgotten My name for Baal.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:28 @ The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream. And he who has My word, let him speak My word faithfully. What has the straw to do with the grain, says Jehovah?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:29 @ Is not My word thus like fire, says Jehovah, and like a hammer which breaks a rock in pieces?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:30 @ Then, Jehovah says, Behold, I am against the prophets who steal My words, each one from his neighbor.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:31 @ Jehovah says, Behold, I am against the prophets who use their tongues and say, He says.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:32 @ Jehovah says, Behold, I am against those who prophesy false dreams, and tell them, and cause My people to go astray by their lies, and by their frivolity. Yet I did not send them nor command them. And they will not profit this people at all, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:33 @ And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask you, saying, What is the burden of Jehovah? You shall then say to them, What burden? I will even forsake you, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:34 @ And the prophet, and the priest, and the people who shall say, The burden of Jehovah, I will even punish that man and his house.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:35 @ And you shall say each one to his neighbor, and each one to his brother, What has Jehovah answered? And what has Jehovah spoken?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:36 @ And you shall not mention the burden of Jehovah again, for each man's word shall be his burden. For you have perverted the words of the living God, of Jehovah of Hosts, our God.

gltv@Jeremiah:23:37 @ So you shall say to the prophet, What has Jehovah answered you? And what has Jehovah spoken?

gltv@Jeremiah:23:38 @ But if you say, The burden of Jehovah, therefore so says Jehovah: Because you say this word, the burden of Jehovah; and I have sent to you saying, You shall not say, The burden of Jehovah;

gltv@Jeremiah:23:40 @ And I will bring an everlasting reproach and never ending shame on you, which shall not be forgotten.

gltv@Jeremiah:24:1 @ Jehovah made me see, and, behold, two baskets of figs set before the temple of Jehovah, after Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had exiled Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the rulers of Judah, and the craftsmen, and the smiths from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.

gltv@Jeremiah:24:2 @ One basket had very good figs, like first ripe figs. And the other basket had very bad figs which could not be eaten from their badness.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:7 @ Yet you have not listened to Me, says Jehovah, so that you might provoke Me to anger with the works of your hands, for harm to you.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:12 @ And it shall be, when seventy years are fulfilled, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, and the land of the Chaldeans, for their iniquity, says Jehovah; and I will make it everlasting ruins.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:13 @ And I will bring on that land all My words which I have spoken against it, all that is written in this book which has prophesied against all the nations.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:28 @ And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, So says Jehovah of Hosts, You shall certainly drink.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:29 @ For, behold, I begin to bring evil on the city on which is called My name, and shall you be found entirely without guilt? You shall not be without guilt. For I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:30 @ And now you prophesy against them all these words, and say to them, Jehovah shall roar from on high and utter His voice from His holy habitation; He shall mightily roar over His dwelling place. He answers with a shout, like those who tread out the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:31 @ A roaring will go to the ends of the earth, for Jehovah has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh; He will give the wicked to the sword, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:34 @ Howl, O shepherds, and cry, and roll, O leaders of the flock! For the days of your slaughter and of your scatterings are fulfilled, and you shall fall like a desirable vessel.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:35 @ And refuge has perished from the shepherds, and escape from the leaders of the flock.

gltv@Jeremiah:25:36 @ The sound of the cry of the shepherds, and the howling from the leaders of the flock will be heard. For Jehovah is spoiling their pasture.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:8 @ And it happened when had made an end of speaking all that Jehovah had commanded him to speak to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people seized him, saying, You shall surely die.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:9 @ Why have you prophesied in the name of Jehovah, saying, This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be wasted, without inhabitant? And all the people were gathered against in the house of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:10 @ When the rulers of Judah heard these things, then they came up from the king's house to the house of Jehovah and sat down in the entrance of the New Gate of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:11 @ And the priests and the prophets spoke to the rulers, and to all the people, saying, Let a death sentence be for this man, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:12 @ Then spoke to all the rulers and to all the people, saying, Jehovah sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:13 @ So now make good your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of Jehovah your God, and Jehovah will repent toward the evil that He has spoken against you.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:15 @ But know for certain that if you put me to death, you shall surely bring innocent blood on yourselves, and on this city, and on its inhabitants. For truly Jehovah has sent me to you, to speak all these words in your ears.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:19 @ Did Hezekiah, king of Judah and all Judah indeed put him to death? Did he not fear Jehovah and entreat the face of Jehovah? And did not Jehovah repent of the evil which He had spoken against them? So we are doing great evil against our souls.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:20 @ And there was also a man who prophesied in the name of Jehovah, Urijah the son of Shemaiah of Kirjath-jearim, who prophesied against this city and against this land according to the words of Jeremiah.

gltv@Jeremiah:26:21 @ And when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all the rulers, heard his words, the king tried to put him to death. But Urijah heard, and he was afraid, and fled, and went to Egypt.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:3 @ Within two years I will again bring into this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried them to Babylon.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:4 @ And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the exiles of Judah who went into Babylon, says Jehovah. For I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:5 @ Then the prophet said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the house of Jehovah,

gltv@Jeremiah:28:6 @ even the prophet said, Amen! May Jehovah do so; may Jehovah confirm your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the house of Jehovah, and all the exiles, from Babylon into this place.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:7 @ But hear now this word that I speak in your ears and in the ears of all the people:

gltv@Jeremiah:28:8 @ The prophets who have been before me and before you from antiquity prophesied against many lands and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of plague.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:9 @ As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, the prophet shall be known as one whom Jehovah has truly sent him.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:10 @ Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the prophet Jeremiah's neck and broke it.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:11 @ And Hananiah spoke for the eyes of the people saying, So says Jehovah, Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all nations within the time of two years. And the prophet went his way.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:12 @ Then the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:28:13 @ Go and tell Hananiah, saying, So says Jehovah, You have broken yokes of wood, but you shall make instead of them yokes of iron.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:14 @ For so says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. And they shall serve him. And I have given him the beasts of the field also.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:15 @ Then the prophet said to Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah, Jehovah has not sent you, but you have made this people trust in a lie.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:16 @ So Jehovah says this, Behold, I send you away from the face of the earth. You shall die this year, because you have spoken apostasy against Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:28:17 @ And Hananiah died the same year in the seventh month.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:1 @ And these are the words of the letter that the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the rest of the elders of the exile, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had exiled from Jerusalem to Babylon

gltv@Jeremiah:29:3 @ He sent by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, whom Zedekiah, king of Judah, sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:29:4 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have caused to be exiled from Jerusalem to Babylon:

gltv@Jeremiah:29:5 @ Build houses and live, and plant gardens, and eat their fruit.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:6 @ Take wives, and father sons and daughters. And take wives for your sons; and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters, and multiply there, and do not become few.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:7 @ And seek the peace of the city, there where I have caused you to be exiled. And pray to Jehovah for it; for in its peace you shall have peace.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:8 @ For so says Jehovah of Hosts, the God Israel: Do not let your prophets and your fortune-tellers in your midst deceive you. And do not listen to your dreams which you dream.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:9 @ For they prophesy falsely to you in My name. I have not sent them, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:10 @ For so says Jehovah, When according to My mouth seventy years have been fulfilled for Babylon, I will visit you and confirm My good word to you, to bring you back to this place.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:11 @ For I know the purposes which I am planning for you, says Jehovah; purposes of peace, and not for evil; to give you a future and a hope.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:12 @ Then you shall call on Me, and you shall go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:13 @ And you shall seek and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:14 @ And I will be found by you, says Jehovah. And I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you, says Jehovah. And I will bring you again into the place from which I sent you into exile, from there.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:15 @ Because you have said, Jehovah has raised up for us prophets in Babylon,

gltv@Jeremiah:29:19 @ For they have not listened to My words, says Jehovah, which I sent to them by My servants the prophets, rising up early and sending; but you would not hear, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:20 @ And now you hear the word of Jehovah, all you exiles whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:21 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who prophesy a lie to you in My name: Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shall strike them before your eyes.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:22 @ And a curse shall be taken up from them for all the exiles of Judah who are in Babylon, saying, May Jehovah make you like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire,

gltv@Jeremiah:29:23 @ because they have committed disgraceful folly in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbor's wives, and have spoken a lying word in My name, which I have not commanded them. For I am He who knows, and a witness, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:24 @ You shall also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:29:25 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because you have sent letters in your name to all the people in Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:29:26 @ Jehovah has made you priest instead of Jehoiada the priest, to be officers in the house of Jehovah, over every raving man who prophesies, that you should put him into the stocks and into the torture collar.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:27 @ And now why have you not reproved of Anathoth, who prophesies to you?

gltv@Jeremiah:29:28 @ On account of this he sent to us in Babylon, saying, This exile is long; build houses and live; and plant gardens and eat their fruit.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:29 @ And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of the prophet.

gltv@Jeremiah:29:30 @ Then the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:29:31 @ Send to all the exiles, saying, So says Jehovah concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Because Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I did not send him; and he caused you to trust in a lie;

gltv@Jeremiah:29:32 @ therefore so says Jehovah, Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite and his seed. There shall not be to him a man living among this people; nor shall he behold the good which I shall do for My people, says Jehovah, because he has uttered rebellion against Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:3 @ For, lo, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will turn the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, says Jehovah; and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:4 @ And these are the words that Jehovah spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah:

gltv@Jeremiah:30:5 @ For so says Jehovah, We have heard a sound of trembling, of dread, and not of peace.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:6 @ Ask now and see whether a man is giving birth? Why do I see every man with his hands on his loins, like a woman in travail, and all faces are turned to paleness?

gltv@Jeremiah:30:7 @ Alas! For that day is great, for none is like it. And it is a time of Jacob's trouble, but he will be saved out of it.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:8 @ For it shall be in that day, says Jehovah of Hosts, I will break his yoke from your neck, and I will burst your bonds. And strangers will not again enslave him;

gltv@Jeremiah:30:10 @ And you, O My servant Jacob, do not fear, says Jehovah. Do not be terrified, O Israel. For, lo, I will save you from afar, and your seed from the land of their captivity. And Jacob shall return, and have quiet, and be untroubled, and no one will make him afraid.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:11 @ For I am with you, says Jehovah, to save you. Though I make a full end among all nations where I have scattered you, yet I will not make a full end with you. But I will correct you justly, and I will not leave you unpunished.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:14 @ All your lovers have forgotten you; they do not seek you. For I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, because of the greatness of your iniquity. Your sins are many.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:15 @ Why do you cry out over your crushing? Your pain is incurable, for the greatness of your iniquity; your sins are many, so I have done these things to you.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:16 @ Therefore, all those who devour you shall be devoured. And all your enemies, every one of them, shall go into captivity. And they who rob you shall be given for plunder; and all who strip you, I will give to be stripped.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:17 @ For I will give health back to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Jehovah, because they called you, Outcast; saying, This is Zion; no one is seeking for her.

gltv@Jeremiah:30:18 @ So says Jehovah, Behold I will turn the captivity of Jacob's tents and will have mercy on his dwelling places. And the city shall be built on her ruin heap; and the palace shall remain on its own place.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:18 @ I have surely heard Ephraim moaning over himself, saying, You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bull not broken in. Turn me, and I shall be turned; for You are Jehovah my God.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:19 @ For after I had turned away, I repented; and after I was taught, I slapped on my thigh. I was ashamed; yea, I even blushed, because I bore the disgrace of my youth.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:20 @ Is Ephraim My dear son? Or is he a delightful child? For as often as I spoke against him, I earnestly remember him still. So My bowels groan for him; I will surely have pity on him, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:21 @ Set up road marks for yourself; make sign posts for yourself. Set your heart toward the highway, even the way you went. Turn again, O virgin of Israel; turn again to these cities of yours.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:22 @ Until when will you turn to and fro, O faithless daughter? For Jehovah has created a new thing in the land: a woman shall enclose a man.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:30 @ But every man will die in his iniquity. Every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth will be dull.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:32 @ not according to the covenant that I cut with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt (which covenant of Mine they broke, although I was a husband to them, says Jehovah).

gltv@Jeremiah:31:33 @ But this shall be the covenant that I will cut with the house of Israel: After those days, declares Jehovah, I will put My law in their inward parts, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:34 @ And they shall no longer each man teach his neighbor, and each man his brother, saying, Know Jehovah. For they shall all know Me, from the least of them even to the greatest of them, declares Jehovah. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sins no more.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:35 @ So says Jehovah, who gives the sun for a light by day, the laws of the moon, and the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar, Jehovah of Hosts is His name.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:36 @ If these ordinances depart from before Me, says Jehovah, the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:37 @ So says Jehovah, If the heavens above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth below can be searched out, I will also reject all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:31:38 @ Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that the city will be built to Jehovah, from the Tower of Hananeel to the Corner Gate.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:1 @ The word which came to from Jehovah in the tenth year of Zedekiah, king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:2 @ For then the king of Babylon's army was besieging Jerusalem. And the prophet was shut in the court of the guard, which was in the king of Judah's house.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:3 @ For Zedekiah, king of Judah, had shut him up, saying, Why do you prophesy and say, So says Jehovah, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will take it.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:4 @ And Zedekiah, king of Judah, shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shall surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with him mouth to mouth, and will see his eyes with his eyes.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:5 @ And he shall lead Zedekiah into Babylon, and there he shall be until I visit him, says Jehovah. Though you fight with the Chaldeans, you shall not succeed.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:6 @ And said, The word of Jehovah was to me saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:32:7 @ Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallum, your uncle, shall come to you, saying, Buy my field in Anathoth for yourself, for the right to redeem is yours, to buy it.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:8 @ So Hanameel, my uncle's son, came to me in the court of the guard, according to the word of Jehovah, and said to me, Please buy my field in Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for the right of inheritance is yours, and the right of redemption is yours. Buy it for yourself. Then I knew that this was the word of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:9 @ And I bought the field in Anathoth from my uncle's son, Hanameel, and weighed him the silver, seventeen shekels of silver.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:10 @ And I wrote it in the document, and sealed it, and called witnesses, and weighed the silver on the scales.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:11 @ So I took the document of the purchase, that which was sealed according to the law and the statutes, and the open copy.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:12 @ And I gave the purchase document to Baruch the son of Neriah the son of Maaseiah, before the eyes of my uncle's son, Hanameel, and before the eyes of the witnesses who wrote in the purchase document before the eyes of all the Jews who sat in the court of the guard.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:13 @ And I commanded Baruch before their eyes, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:32:14 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: Take these books, the purchase document, the one sealed, and the open book, and put them in an earthen vessel so that they may stand many days.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:15 @ For so says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards will again be bought in this land.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:16 @ And after I gave the document of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed to Jehovah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:32:17 @ Ah, Lord Jehovah! You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and Your outstretched arm; not any thing is too difficult for You,

gltv@Jeremiah:32:18 @ who acts with loving-kindness to thousands, and repays the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their sons after them. The great, the mighty God, Jehovah of Hosts, is His name.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:19 @ He is great in counsel and mighty in work. For Your eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of men, to give to each man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:20 @ For You have set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt until this day, and in Israel, and among men; and You have made a name for Yourself, as at this day.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:21 @ And You have brought Your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terror.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:22 @ And You have given them this land which You swore to their fathers to give to them a land flowing with milk and honey.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:23 @ And they came in and possessed it, but they did not obey Your voice nor did they walk in Your law. They have not done all that You commanded them to do, so You have caused all this evil to meet them.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:24 @ Behold, the siege mounds have come to the city, to capture it. And the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans who fight against it, because of the sword, and the famine, and the plague. And what You have spoken has happened. And, behold, You see it.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:25 @ And You have said to me, O Lord Jehovah, Buy for yourself the field with silver, and call witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:26 @ And the word of Jehovah was to Jeremiah, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:32:27 @ Behold, I am Jehovah, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for Me?

gltv@Jeremiah:32:28 @ So Jehovah says this: Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and he shall take it.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:29 @ And the Chaldeans who fight against this city shall enter and set this city on fire, and burn it, with the houses where they offered incense on their roofs to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to other gods, to provoke Me to anger.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:30 @ For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have only done evil in My eyes from their youth. For the sons of Israel have only provoked Me to anger with the work of their hands, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:31 @ For this city has been to Me a cause of My anger and My wrath from the day that they built it even to this day, that I should remove it from My face;

gltv@Jeremiah:32:32 @ because of all the evil of the sons of Israel and of the sons of Judah which they have done to provoke Me to anger, they, their kings, their rulers, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:33 @ And they have turned the back to Me, and not the face; though I taught them, rising up early and teaching, yet they have not listened to receive instruction.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:34 @ But they set their idols in the house on which My name has been called, to defile it.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:35 @ And they built the high places of Baal in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Molech, which I did not command them, nor did it come into My heart, that they should do this detestable thing, to cause Judah to sin.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:36 @ And so now Jehovah, God of Israel, says this concerning this city, of which you say, It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the plague;

gltv@Jeremiah:32:37 @ Behold, I will gather them out of all the lands, there where I have driven them in My anger, and in My fury, and in great indignation. And I will bring them again to this place, and I will cause them to live in safety.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:38 @ And they shall be My people, and I will be their God.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:39 @ And I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me all the days, for good to them and to their sons after them.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:40 @ And I will cut an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do good to them. But I will put My fear in their heart, that they shall not depart from Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:41 @ And I will rejoice over them, to do good to them; and I will truly plant them in this land with all My heart and with all My soul.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:42 @ For so says Jehovah: As I have brought this great evil on this people, so I will bring on them all the good that I am speaking to them.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:43 @ And fields will be bought in this land, of which you say, It is a desolation, without man or beast; it has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

gltv@Jeremiah:32:44 @ Men shall buy fields for silver, and write in a document, and seal it, and call witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the Negeb.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:5 @ they come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men whom I have struck in My anger and in My wrath, and for whom I have hidden My face from this city, because of all their evil.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:6 @ Behold, I will bring health and healing to it, and I will heal them and will show them the abundance of peace and truth.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:7 @ And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:8 @ And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity which they have sinned against Me; and I will pardon all their iniquities which they have sinned against Me, and which they have rebelled against Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:9 @ And it shall be a name of joy to Me, a praise and a glory to all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do for them. And they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the peace that I do for it.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:12 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, Again in this place which is a waste without man or even beast, and in all its cities shall be a home of shepherds causing flocks to lie down.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:13 @ In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the Negeb, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks shall pass again under the hands of him who tallies, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:14 @ Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will fulfill the good thing which I have promised to the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:15 @ In those days, and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. And He shall do judgment and righteousness in the land.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:16 @ In those days Judah shall be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell in safety. And this is the name that shall be called on her: JEHOVAH OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:18 @ And for the Levitical priests, they shall not have a man cut off before Me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle grain offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:24 @ Have you not observed what these people have spoken, saying, The two families that Jehovah has chosen, He has also rejected them? And they despise My people, no more to be a nation before them.

gltv@Jeremiah:33:25 @ So says Jehovah, If My covenant is not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of the heavens and earth,

gltv@Jeremiah:33:26 @ then I also will reject the seed of Jacob, and My servant David, not to take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. For I will bring back their captivity and have pity on them.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:1 @ The word which was to from Jehovah when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth (because his hand rules), and all the peoples fought against Jerusalem, and against all its cities, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:34:2 @ So says Jehovah, the God of Israel: Go and speak to Zedekiah, king of Judah, and tell him, So says Jehovah, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:9 @ that each man should release his male slave, and each man his female slave, if a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, to go free, that not any should enslave a Jew, a man, his brother among them.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:10 @ And all the rulers obeyed, and all the people who had entered into the covenant allowed them to go free, each man his male slave, and each man his female slave; so that not any should enslave among them any more; and they obeyed and let them go.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:11 @ But afterward they turned and caused to return the male slaves and the female slaves whom they sent away. And they subjected them for male slaves and for female slaves.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:13 @ So says Jehovah, the God of Israel: I cut a covenant with your fathers in the day I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:34:14 @ At the end of seven years each man should let go his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to him. When he has served you six years, you shall let him go free from you. But your fathers did not listen to Me nor bow down their ear.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:15 @ And you had turned today, and you did right in My eyes, to call for liberty, each man to his neighbor. And you cut a covenant before Me in the house on which is called My name.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:16 @ But you turned and profaned My name, and each man caused his male slave, and each man his female slave, to return whom you had sent away according to their desire. And you subjected them to be slaves and female slaves to you.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:17 @ So Jehovah says this: You have not listened to Me, to call for liberty, each man to his brother, and each man to his neighbor. Behold, I call for freedom to you, says Jehovah: to the sword, to the plague, and to the famine. And I will cause you to be a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth.

gltv@Jeremiah:34:18 @ And I will give the men who have transgressed My covenant, who have not stood on the words of the covenant which they have cut with Me when they cut the calf in two, and passed between its parts,

gltv@Jeremiah:44:6 @ For this reason My fury and My anger poured out and burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem. And they are wasted and deserted as this day.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:7 @ And now so says Jehovah, the God of Hosts, the God of Israel: Why do you commit great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, child and suckling, out of Judah, not leaving to yourselves a remnant,

gltv@Jeremiah:44:8 @ to provoke Me to wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, there where you have gone to reside, that I might cut you off, and that you might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?

gltv@Jeremiah:44:9 @ Have you forgotten the evilness of your fathers, and the evilness of the kings of Judah, and the evilness of his wives, and your own evilness, and the evilness of your wives, which they have done in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

gltv@Jeremiah:44:10 @ They are not crushed to this day, nor have they feared, nor walked in My law, nor in My statutes which I have set before you and before your fathers.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:11 @ So Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, says this: Behold, I will set My face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:12 @ And I will take the remnant of Judah who have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt, to reside there; and they shall all be consumed and fall in the land of Egypt. They shall be consumed by the sword, and by the famine. They shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword, and by the famine, and they shall be a curse, a horror, and a shame, and a reproach.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:13 @ For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the plague,

gltv@Jeremiah:44:14 @ so that none of the remnant of Judah which has gone into the land of Egypt, to reside there, will be an escaped one, or a survivor; or return to the land of Judah to which they are lifting up their soul, to return to live there. For not one shall return, except those who escape.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:15 @ Then all the men who knew that their wives had burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered saying,

gltv@Jeremiah:44:16 @ As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of Jehovah, we will not listen to you.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:17 @ But we will certainly do whatever thing goes out of our own mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings, and our rulers, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. And we had plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:18 @ But when we stopped burning incense to the queen of heaven, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked all things, and have been devoured by the sword and by the famine.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:19 @ And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our men?

gltv@Jeremiah:44:20 @ Then said to all the people; to the men, and to the women, and to all the people who were answering:

gltv@Jeremiah:44:21 @ The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you, and your fathers, your kings, and your rulers, and the people of the land, did not Jehovah remember them? Yea, it came into His heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:22 @ And Jehovah could no longer bear because of the evil of your doings, because of the detestable things you have committed. For this reason your land is a waste, and a horror, and a curse, without inhabitant, as this day.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:23 @ Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against Jehovah, and have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah, in His law, or in His statutes; and because you did not walk in His testimonies, therefore this evil has happened to you, as at this day.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:24 @ also said to all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of Jehovah, all Judah in the land of Egypt.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:25 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hands, saying, We will surely fulfill our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her. You certainly do perform your vows and certainly make stand your vows.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:26 @ So hear the word of Jehovah, all Judah who reside in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by My great name, says Jehovah, that My name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord Jehovah lives.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:27 @ Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah in the land of Egypt shall be destroyed by the sword, and by the famine, until they come to an end.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:28 @ And he who escapes the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt to the land of Judah, few in number. And all the remnant of Judah who have gone into the land of Egypt, to reside there, shall know whose word shall stand, theirs or Mine.

gltv@Jeremiah:44:29 @ And this shall be a sign to you, says Jehovah, that I will punish you in this place, so that you may know that My words shall surely stand against you for evil:

gltv@Jeremiah:44:30 @ So says Jehovah, Behold, I am giving Pharaoh-hophra, king of Egypt, into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who seek his soul, even as I gave Zedekiah, king of Judah, into the hand of Nebu-chadnezzar, the king of Babylon, his enemy that sought his soul.

gltv@Jeremiah:45:2 @ So says Jehovah, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch:

gltv@Jeremiah:45:3 @ You said, Woe is me now, for Jehovah has added grief to my pain; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.

gltv@Jeremiah:45:4 @ So you shall say to him, Jehovah says this: Behold, I am tearing down what I have built; and I am pulling up what I have planted, even all the land itself to Me.

gltv@Jeremiah:45:5 @ And do you seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them. For, behold, I will bring evil on all flesh, declares Jehovah. But I will give your soul to you for a prize, there on all the places where you go.

gltv@Jeremiah:46:6 @ Do not let the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape. They stumbled and fell to the north, by the side of the river Euphrates.

gltv@Jeremiah:46:7 @ Who is this rising up like the Nile, whose waters surge about like the rivers?

gltv@Jeremiah:46:8 @ Egypt rises up like the Nile, and his waters surge about like the rivers. And he says, I will go up and will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and its people.

gltv@Jeremiah:46:9 @ Come up, horses; and rage, chariots! And let the mighty men come forth, the Ethiopians and the Libyans who handle the shield, and the Lydians who handle and tread the bow.

gltv@Jeremiah:46:10 @ For this is the day of the Lord Jehovah of Hosts, a day of vengeance, that He may avenge Himself of His foes.

gltv@Jeremiah:50:14 @ Put yourselves in order against Babylon all around. All you who tread a bow, shoot at her. Do not spare arrows, for she has sinned against Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:50:15 @ Shout against her all around. She has given her hand, her foundations have fallen, her walls have been thrown down, for it is Jehovah's vengeance. Take vengeance on her. As she has done, do to her.

gltv@Jeremiah:50:16 @ Cut off the sower from Babylon, and the one handling the sickle in the time of harvest. They shall turn from a sword of the oppressor, each one to his people. And they shall flee, each one to his own land.

gltv@Jeremiah:50:17 @ Israel is a scattered sheep, driven away by lions. First, the king of Assyria devoured him. And last, this king Nebu-chadnezzar of Babylon crunched him.

gltv@Jeremiah:50:30 @ So her young men shall fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be silenced in that day, declares Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:50:45 @ So hear the counsel of Jehovah that He has planned against Babylon, and His purposes which He has purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely they shall drag them, the least of the flock. Surely He will make their dwelling desolate over them.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:7 @ Babylon was a golden cup in the hand of Jehovah, making all the earth drunk. The nations have drunk of her wine, therefore the nations rage.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:8 @ Suddenly Babylon has fallen, and it is broken. Wail for her, take balm for her pain, if perhaps she may be healed.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:9 @ We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed. Forsake her, and let us go, each one into his own country. For her judgment reaches to the heavens, and is lifted up to the skies.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:27 @ Set up a banner in the land. Blow a trumpet among the nations; consecrate nations against her. Make hear the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz together against her, set a marshal against her. Cause the horses to come up like rough locusts.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:28 @ Consecrate nations against her, with the kings of the Medes, her governors and all her rulers, and all the land of his dominion.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:29 @ And the land shall tremble and writhe in pain. For every purpose of Jehovah shall be done against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desert without inhabitant.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:30 @ The mighty men of Babylon have stopped fighting. They have dwelt in strongholds, their might has withered, they became as women; they have burned their houses, her bars are broken.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:31 @ A runner shall run to meet a runner, and a herald to meet a herald, to announce to the king of Babylon that his city is captured from end to end,

gltv@Jeremiah:51:32 @ and that the fords are captured. And they have burned the reeds with fire, and the men of war are terrified.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:33 @ For so says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a grain floor, it is time to tread her. Yet a little while, and the time of her harvest will come.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:34 @ Nebu-chadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has devoured us. He has crushed us. He has made us an empty vessel. He has swallowed us like a jackal. He has filled his belly with delicacies. He has thrown me out.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:35 @ The violence done to me and to my flesh is on Babylon, the dweller in Zion shall say. And Jerusalem shall say, My blood shall be on the dwellers of Chaldea.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:36 @ So Jehovah says this: Behold, I will strive for you and take vengeance for you. And I will dry up her sea and make her well dry.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:37 @ And Babylon shall become heaps, a home for jackals, a horror and a hissing, without a dweller.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:38 @ They shall roar together like lions, they shall growl like lions' cubs.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:39 @ In their heat, I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunk so that they rejoice and sleep a never ending sleep and never awaken, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:40 @ I shall bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:41 @ How Sheshach is captured! And how the praise of all the earth is seized! How Babylon has become a ruin among the nations!

gltv@Jeremiah:51:42 @ The sea has come up over Babylon, she is covered with the multitude of its waves.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:43 @ Her cities have become a ruin, a dry land and a wilderness, a land in which no man dwells, nor does any son of man pass by it.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:44 @ And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up. And the nations shall not flow together any more to him; yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:45 @ My people, go out of her midst, and each man deliver his soul from the fierce anger of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:46 @ And that your heart not faint, and you fear the report that shall be heard in the land, the report shall come in a year. And after that the report shall come in another year, and there shall be violence in the land, ruler against ruler.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:47 @ So behold, the days come that I will punish on the idols of Babylon. And all her land shall be put to shame, and all her slain shall fall in her midst.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:48 @ Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is in them, shall shout for Babylon. For the plunderers shall come to her from the north, says Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:49 @ As Babylon is to fall for the slain of Israel, so for Babylon the slain of all the earth shall fall.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:50 @ You who have escaped the sword, go away. Do not stand still. Remember Jehovah afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your heart.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:51 @ We have turned pale because we have heard reproach, dishonor has covered our faces. For foreigners have come into the holy places of the house of Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:52 @ So, behold, the days are coming, says Jehovah, that I will punish on her idols, and through all her land the wounded shall groan.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:53 @ Though Babylon should mount up to the heavens, and though she should fortify her strong height, plunderers shall come from Me to her, states Jehovah.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:54 @ A sound of a cry from Babylon, and great ruin from the land of Chaldeans!

gltv@Jeremiah:51:55 @ For Jehovah is stripping Babylon, and the great voice will perish out of her. And her waves will roar like many waters, the noise of their voice is given.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:56 @ Because the plunderer is coming on her, on Babylon, and her mighty men are captured, their bows are shattered; for Jehovah the God of recompenses shall surely repay.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:57 @ And I will make her rulers drunk, also her wise ones, her governors, and her rulers, and her mighty men; and they shall sleep a never-ending sleep, and not awaken, says the King whose name is Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:58 @ So says Jehovah of Hosts, The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly laid bare, and her high gates shall be burned with fire. And the peoples shall labor as for vanity, and the peoples as for fire; and they shall be weary.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:59 @ The word which the prophet commanded Seraiah, the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah, the king of Judah, to Babylon in me fourth year of his reign. And Seraiah was a chief official.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:60 @ So wrote in a hook all the evil that should come on Babylon, all these words that are written against Babylon.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:61 @ And said to Seraiah, When you come to Babylon and shall see and shall cry all these words,

gltv@Jeremiah:51:62 @ then you shall say, O Jehovah, You have spoken against this place to cut it off so that no dweller shall be in it, from man to animal, but it shall be a ruin forever.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:63 @ And it shall be, when you have finished crying this hook, you shall tie a stone to it and throw it into the middle of the Euphrates.

gltv@Jeremiah:51:64 @ And you shall say, In this way Babylon shall sink and shall not rise from the evil that I am bringing on her. And they shall be weary. So far are the words of Jeremiah.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:1 @ Zedekiah was a son of twenty one years when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of of Libnah.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:2 @ And he did evil in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:3 @ For it was because of the anger of Jehovah in Jerusalem and Judah that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon, until Jehovah had cast them out from His face.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:4 @ And in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, king Nebu-chadnezzar of Babylon came, he and all his army against Jerusalem, and pitched against it, and built a siege wall against it all around.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:5 @ And the city came under siege until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:6 @ And in the fourth month, in the ninth of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no food for the people of the land.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:7 @ Then the city was breached, and all the men of war fled, and went out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden. And the Chaldeans lay all around the city. And they went by the way of the Arabah.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:8 @ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook Zedekiah in the Arabah of Jericho. And all his army was scattered from him.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:9 @ And they took the king and carried him up to the king of Babylon, to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgments against him.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:10 @ And the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He also slaughtered all the rulers of Judah in Riblah.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:11 @ And he blinded the eyes of Zedekiah. And the king of Babylon bound him in bronze fetters and carried him to Babylon. And he put him in prison until the day of his death.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:12 @ And in the fifth month, in the tenth of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebu-chadnezzar of Babylon, Nebu-zaradan, the chief of the executioners, who stood before the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:13 @ And he burned the house of Jehovah and the king's house. And he burned all the houses of Jerusalem with fire, and all the houses of the great ones.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:14 @ And all the army of the Chaldeans with the chief of the executioners broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:15 @ Then Nebu-zaradan, the chief of the executioners, exiled some of the poor of the people, and the rest of the people who remained in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:16 @ But Nebu-zaradan, the chief of the executioners, left some of the poor of the land for vinedressers and for farmers.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:17 @ Also the Chaldeans broke the pillars of bronze that were in the house of Jehovah, and the bases, and the bronze sea in the house of Jehovah, and carried all the bronze from them to Babylon.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:20 @ the two pillars, one sea, and twelve bronze bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of Jehovah. The weight of the bronze of all these vessels was not known.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:21 @ And the pillars: the height of one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a line of twelve cubits went around it, and its thickness was four fingers; it was hollow.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:22 @ And a capital of bronze was on it; and the height of one capital was five cubits, with net-work and pomegranates on the capitals all around, all of bronze. And like these was the second pillar, and the pomegranates.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:23 @ And there were ninety six pomegranates on a side; all the pomegranates on the net-work were a hundred all around.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:30 @ in the twenty third year of Nebu-chadnezzar, Nebu-zaradan, the chief of the executioners, exiled seven hundred forty five souls of the Jews. All the souls were four thousand and six hundred.

gltv@Jeremiah:52:31 @ And it happened in the thirty seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin, king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the twenty fifth of the month, Evil-merodach, king of Babylon, in the year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, king of Judah, and brought him from the prison house.

gltv@Lamentations:1:2 @ She bitterly weeps in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks. She has no comforter among all her lovers. All her friends dealt deceit with her; they became enemies to her.

gltv@Lamentations:1:3 @ Judah went captive from affliction, and from great slavery. She dwells among the nations; She finds no rest. All her pursuers have overtaken her between the straits.

gltv@Lamentations:1:4 @ The roads of Zion are in mourning without any going to the appointed feasts. All her gates are deserted; her priests sigh, her virgins are afflicted; and she is in bitterness.

gltv@Lamentations:1:5 @ Her foes have become as chief; her haters are at ease. For Jehovah has afflicted her for the multitude of her trespasses. Her children have gone, captive before the foe.

gltv@Lamentations:1:6 @ And from the daughter of Zion all her splendor has departed. Her rulers have become like bucks; they find no pasture; and they have gone without strength before the pursuer.

gltv@Lamentations:1:7 @ In the days of her affliction and her wandering, Jerusalem remembers all her desirable things from previous days, when her people fell into the hand of the foe; and there is no ally for her. The foes saw her; they laughed at her annihilations.

gltv@Lamentations:1:8 @ Jerusalem has grievously sinned; on account of this, she has been removed. All the ones knowing her despise her, for they saw her nakedness. Also, she groans and turns backward.

gltv@Lamentations:1:9 @ Her uncleanness is in her skirts. She did not remember her end and has gone down astoundingly. She had no comforter. O Jehovah, behold my affliction, for the enemy has magnified himself.

gltv@Lamentations:1:10 @ The enemy has spread out his hand on all her desirable things. Indeed, she has seen the nations enter into her holy place, whom You commanded that they not enter into Your congregation.

gltv@Lamentations:1:13 @ From on high He has sent fire into my bones, and subdued it. He spread a net for my feet; He has turned me back; He gave me desolation. All the days I faint.

gltv@Lamentations:1:14 @ The yoke of my transgressions is bound by His hand, they intertwine, they rise on my neck. He caused my strength to falter. The Lord gave me into their hands. I am not able to rise up.

gltv@Lamentations:1:15 @ The Lord has trampled all my mighty ones in my midst. He called a gathering against me to crush my young men. As a winepress, the Lord trod the virgin daughter of Judah.

gltv@Lamentations:1:16 @ I weep for these; my eye, my eye runs down with water, because far from me is a comforter reviving my soul. My sons are desolated because the enemy prevails.

gltv@Lamentations:2:2 @ The Lord swallowed up all of Jacob's dwelling-places, and did not pity. In His wrath He has thrown down the strongholds of the daughter of Judah. He made them touch to the earth. He has defiled the kingdom and its rulers.

gltv@Lamentations:2:3 @ He cut off all the horn of Israel in hot anger. He has turned back His right hand from the face of the haters, and He burned in Jacob as a flaming fire; it consumes all around.

gltv@Lamentations:2:4 @ He trod His bow like an enemy, and set His right hand like a foe; and killed all who were desirable to the eye in the tent of the daughter of Zion. He poured out His fury like fire.

gltv@Lamentations:2:5 @ The Lord was like an enemy; He swallowed up Israel; He swallowed up all his palaces and destroyed his strongholds; and He increased mourning and weeping in the daughter of Judah.

gltv@Lamentations:2:6 @ And He violated his booth like a garden and destroyed his meeting-places. Jehovah made meeting-places and sabbaths forgotten in Zion, and He rejected king and priest in the fury of His anger.

gltv@Lamentations:2:7 @ The Lord has cast off His altar; He rejected His holy place. He has delivered the walls of her palaces into the hater's hand. They gave a noise in Jehovah's house, as a day of meeting.

gltv@Lamentations:2:8 @ Jehovah willed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion; He has stretched out a line. He has not withdrawn His hand from swallowing; and He made rampart and wall lament; they languish together.

gltv@Lamentations:2:9 @ Her gates have sunk in the ground; He has dispersed and shattered her bars. Her kings and her rulers are among the nations. The law is not. Also her prophets have not found a vision from Jehovah.

gltv@Lamentations:2:10 @ They sit on the ground; the elders of Zion's daughters are silent. They send up dust on their heads, they gird on sack cloths. The virgins of Jerusalem let their heads hang to the ground.

gltv@Lamentations:2:11 @ And my eyes are at an end with tears, my inward parts ferment; my liver is poured on the ground for the ruin of the daughter of my people; in the fainting of children and sucklings in the city's plazas.

gltv@Lamentations:2:12 @ They say to their mothers, Where are grain and wine? In their fainting, they are like the wounded in the plazas of the city, in their pouring out their lives to their mothers' bosom.

gltv@Lamentations:2:13 @ What can I testify for you? To what will I compare you, O daughter of Jerusalem? To what shall I equate you, that I may comfort you, O virgin daughter of Zion? For your crushing is great like the sea! Who can heal you?

gltv@Lamentations:2:14 @ Your prophets have seen false and foolish things for you; and they have not revealed your iniquity, to turn back your captivity. Yea, they visioned for you burdens of falsehood and seductions.

gltv@Lamentations:2:15 @ All who pass by clap their hands at you. They hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city which they called the perfection of beauty, the joy of all the earth?

gltv@Lamentations:2:16 @ All your haters have opened their mouth against you; they hiss and gnash the teeth; they say, We have swallowed up. Surely this is the day for which we waited; we have found; we have seen.

gltv@Lamentations:2:17 @ Jehovah has done what He purposed; He fulfilled His word which He commanded from days of antiquity. He has dashed and not pitied. And He made the hater to rejoice over you; He raised the horn of your foes.

gltv@Lamentations:2:18 @ Their heart cried to the Lord. O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears go out like a torrent by day and by night; do not give relief to yourself; let not the daughter of your eye rest.

gltv@Lamentations:2:19 @ Rise up, cry out in the night at the head of the watches; pour out your heart like waters before the face of the Lord. Lift up your hands to Him for the life of your children faint with hunger at the head of every open place.

gltv@Lamentations:2:20 @ Behold, O Jehovah, and look! To whom have you done this? Should women eat their fruit, children of tender care? Should priest and prophet be killed in the holy place of the Lord?

gltv@Lamentations:2:21 @ Young and old lie on the ground of the plazas. My virgins and my young men have fallen by the sword. You have killed in the day of Your anger. You have killed, You have not pitied.

gltv@Lamentations:2:22 @ You have called my terrors all around, as in a day of appointment; and there was not an escaped one or a survivor in the day of the anger of Jehovah. Those whom I have nursed and multiplied, my enemy has consumed.

gltv@Lamentations:3:1 @ I, the man, have seen affliction by the rod of His wrath.

gltv@Lamentations:3:2 @ He led me and made me go in darkness and not light.

gltv@Lamentations:3:3 @ Surely He turned against me; He turns His hand all the day.

gltv@Lamentations:3:4 @ He has wasted my flesh and my skin. He has shattered my bones.

gltv@Lamentations:3:5 @ He built against me and has put around me bitterness and hardship.

gltv@Lamentations:3:6 @ He has made me live in dark places like the dead of old.

gltv@Lamentations:3:7 @ He walled around me and I cannot go out; He has made heavy my bronze chain.

gltv@Lamentations:3:8 @ Also, when I cry out and shout for help, He shuts out my prayer.

gltv@Lamentations:3:9 @ He walled up my ways with cut stone; my paths are crooked.

gltv@Lamentations:3:10 @ He was a bear lying in wait for me, a lion in secret places.

gltv@Lamentations:3:11 @ He has deflected my ways and torn me to pieces; He made me desolate.

gltv@Lamentations:3:12 @ He has trod His bow and set me up as a mark for the arrow.

gltv@Lamentations:3:13 @ He caused the sons of His quiver to enter into my inward parts.

gltv@Lamentations:3:14 @ I was a mockery to all my people, their song all the day.

gltv@Lamentations:3:15 @ He has filled me with bitterness and made me drunk with wormwood.

gltv@Lamentations:3:16 @ And He broke my teeth with gravel; He has covered me in the ashes.

gltv@Lamentations:3:17 @ And You cast off my soul from peace; I have forgotten goodness.

gltv@Lamentations:3:18 @ And I said, My strength and my hope are gone from Jehovah.

gltv@Lamentations:3:19 @ Remember my affliction and my roaming, as wormwood and bitterness.

gltv@Lamentations:3:20 @ My soul vividly remembers and bows down on me.

gltv@Lamentations:3:21 @ I bring back this to my heart. On account of this I hope.

gltv@Lamentations:3:22 @ It is by the kindnesses of Jehovah that we are not consumed, for His mercies are not ended.

gltv@Lamentations:3:23 @ They are new by mornings; great is Your faithfulness.

gltv@Lamentations:3:24 @ Jehovah is my portion, says my soul. On account of this I shall hope to Him.

gltv@Lamentations:3:25 @ Jehovah is good to those waiting on Him, to the soul seeking Him.

gltv@Lamentations:3:26 @ It is good that a man hopes for the salvation of Jehovah, even in silence.

gltv@Lamentations:3:27 @ It is good for a man that he bear a yoke in his youth.

gltv@Lamentations:3:28 @ He sits alone and is silent, for He laid it on him.

gltv@Lamentations:3:29 @ He puts his mouth in the dust, if perhaps there is hope.

gltv@Lamentations:3:30 @ He gives his cheek to Him who strikes him; he is filled with reproach.

gltv@Lamentations:3:31 @ For the Lord will not cast off forever.

gltv@Lamentations:3:32 @ For though He causes grief, He will have pity according to His many kindnesses.

gltv@Lamentations:3:33 @ For He does not afflict from His heart, nor does He grieve the sons of man,

gltv@Lamentations:3:34 @ to crush all the prisoners of earth under His feet,

gltv@Lamentations:3:35 @ to turn aside the justice of a man before the face of the Most High,

gltv@Lamentations:3:36 @ to wrong a man in his cause. This, the Lord does not see.

gltv@Lamentations:3:37 @ Who is this speaking, and it happens when the Lord does not command it?

gltv@Lamentations:3:38 @ Both the evil and the good do not go out from the mouth of the Most High.

gltv@Lamentations:3:39 @ What? Should mankind complain, living man because of his sins?

gltv@Lamentations:3:40 @ Let us search and examine our ways, and turn again to Jehovah.

gltv@Lamentations:3:41 @ Let us lift up our heart and palms to God in Heaven.

gltv@Lamentations:3:42 @ We have transgressed and rebelled; You, You have not forgiven.

gltv@Lamentations:3:43 @ You have wrapped Yourself with anger and pursued us; You have slain; You have not pitied.

gltv@Lamentations:3:44 @ You have covered with a cloud for You, from any prayer passing through.

gltv@Lamentations:3:45 @ You have made us sweepings and garbage in the midst of the peoples.

gltv@Lamentations:3:46 @ All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.

gltv@Lamentations:3:47 @ Dread and a pit is ours, devastation and ruin.

gltv@Lamentations:3:48 @ Streams of water go out of my eye for the ruin of the daughter of my people.

gltv@Lamentations:3:49 @ My eye flows out and does not cease, from there not being any relaxing,

gltv@Lamentations:3:50 @ until Jehovah shall look down and see from Heaven.

gltv@Lamentations:3:51 @ My eye deals severely with my soul, from all the daughters of my city.

gltv@Lamentations:3:52 @ My haters have hunted me like a bird without cause.

gltv@Lamentations:3:53 @ They have cut off my life in the pit, and they threw a stone at me.

gltv@Lamentations:3:54 @ Waters flowed over on my head; I said, I am cut off.

gltv@Lamentations:3:55 @ I called on Your name, O Jehovah, from the lowest pit.

gltv@Lamentations:3:56 @ You have heard my voice; do not hide Your ear at my relief, at my cry for help.

gltv@Lamentations:3:57 @ You came near in the day I called You; you said, Do not fear!

gltv@Lamentations:3:58 @ O Lord, You contended for the causes of my soul; You redeemed my life.

gltv@Lamentations:3:59 @ You have seen my wrong, O Jehovah; judge my cause.

gltv@Lamentations:3:60 @ You have seen all their vengeance, all their plots against me.

gltv@Lamentations:3:61 @ You have heard their reproach, O Jehovah, all their plots against me,

gltv@Lamentations:3:62 @ the lips of those rising up against me, and their scheming against me all the day.

gltv@Lamentations:3:63 @ Look at their sitting and their rising up. I am their song.

gltv@Lamentations:3:64 @ You will give back a recompense to them, O Jehovah, according to the work of their hands.

gltv@Lamentations:3:65 @ You will give them an insolent heart as Your curse to them.

gltv@Lamentations:3:66 @ Pursue and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of Jehovah.

gltv@Lamentations:4:1 @ How the gold dims, the good gold is changed! The stones of the sanctuary are poured out at the head of every street.

gltv@Lamentations:4:2 @ The precious sons of Zion are weighed against pure gold. How they are counted as earthen vessels, the work of a potter's hand!

gltv@Lamentations:4:3 @ Even the jackals draw out the breast; they suckle their young. But the daughter of my people is cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness.

gltv@Lamentations:4:4 @ The tongue of the nursling cleaves to his palate in thirst. The young children ask bread, but there is no breaking for them.

gltv@Lamentations:4:5 @ Those who ate delicacies are desolate in the streets; those reared on scarlet embrace dunghills.

gltv@Lamentations:4:6 @ And the iniquity of the daughter of my people is heaped more than the sin of Sodom, which was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands were spun on her.

gltv@Lamentations:4:7 @ Her Nazarites were purer than snow, whiter than milk; they were redder of bone than corals; their cuttings as azure-blue, as lapis lazuli.

gltv@Lamentations:4:8 @ Their appearance is darker than soot; they are not recognized in the streets. Their skin has shriveled on their bones; it is dried up, it has become like wood.

gltv@Lamentations:4:9 @ Better are the ones slain by the sword than the ones slain by hunger, those who flow away, pierced because the produce of my fields failed.

gltv@Lamentations:4:10 @ The hands of the compassionate women have boiled their own children; they became food to them in the ruin of the daughter of my people.

gltv@Lamentations:4:11 @ Jehovah has fulfilled His fury; He has poured out His fierce anger and has kindled a fire in Zion; and it has devoured its foundations.

gltv@Lamentations:4:12 @ The kings of the earth and all the world's inhabitants would not have believed that the foe and the hater would go into the gates of Jerusalem.

gltv@Lamentations:4:13 @ Because of the sins of her prophets and the iniquities of her priests, shedding the blood of the righteous in her midst,

gltv@Lamentations:4:14 @ they reeled blind in the streets. They are defiled with blood, so that not any are able to touch their garments.

gltv@Lamentations:4:15 @ They cried out to them, Depart! Unclean! Depart, depart! Touch not! Indeed they fled and reeled. They said among the nations, They will not continue to live there.

gltv@Lamentations:4:16 @ The face of Jehovah has shared them out; He will not continue to look on them. They did not lift up the face of the priests, they did not favor the elders.

gltv@Lamentations:4:17 @ While we are, our eyes fail for our vain help. In our watching, we have watched for a nation; it does not save.

gltv@Lamentations:4:18 @ They hunted our steps from going in our open places. Our end came near, our days were fulfilled, for our end had come.

gltv@Lamentations:4:19 @ Our pursuers were swifter than the eagles of the heavens; they hotly pursued us on the mountains; they lay in wait for us in the wilderness.

gltv@Lamentations:4:20 @ The breath of our nostrils, the anointed of Jehovah, was captured in their pits; of whom we said, In his shadow we will live among the nations.

gltv@Lamentations:4:21 @ Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom, living in the land of Uz, The cup also shall pass through to you; you shall be drunken and stripped naked.

gltv@Lamentations:4:22 @ Your perversity is complete, daughter of Zion; He will not continue to exile you. He will visit your perversity, daughter of Edom; He will expose your sins.

gltv@Lamentations:5:1 @ O Jehovah, remember what has been to us; look upon and see our shame.

gltv@Lamentations:5:2 @ Our inheritance has been turned to aliens, our houses to foreigners.

gltv@Lamentations:5:3 @ We are orphans. There is no father; our mothers are like widows.

gltv@Lamentations:5:4 @ We have drunk our water for silver; our wood comes for a price.

gltv@Lamentations:5:5 @ We are pursued; we grow weary; rest is not given to us.

gltv@Lamentations:5:6 @ We have given the hand to the Egyptians, to the Assyrian, in order to be satisfied with bread.

gltv@Lamentations:5:7 @ Our fathers have sinned, and we are not; we have borne their iniquities.

gltv@Lamentations:5:8 @ Slaves rule over us; there is no rescuer from their hand.

gltv@Lamentations:5:9 @ We bring in our bread with our souls, from the face of the sword of the wilderness.

gltv@Lamentations:5:10 @ Our skin is burned black like an oven, because of the fever heat of famine.

gltv@Lamentations:5:11 @ They raped the women in Zion, virgins in the cities of Judah.

gltv@Lamentations:5:12 @ Rulers were hanged by their hands; the faces of the elders were not honored.

gltv@Lamentations:5:13 @ They lifted the young men to the hand mill, and the youths stumbled at the wood.

gltv@Lamentations:5:14 @ The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their music.

gltv@Lamentations:5:15 @ The joy of our heart has ceased; our dance has turned to mourning.

gltv@Lamentations:5:16 @ The crown has fallen from our head. Woe now to us, for we have sinned!

gltv@Lamentations:5:17 @ For this our heart is faint; our eyes are dim for these things.

gltv@Lamentations:5:18 @ Zion is laid waste on the mountain; foxes walk about on it.

gltv@Lamentations:5:19 @ O Jehovah, You remain forever; Your throne to generation and generation.

gltv@Lamentations:5:20 @ Why do You forget us forever, forsake us the length of days?

gltv@Lamentations:5:21 @ Return us to You, O Jehovah, and we shall return. Renew our days as of old,

gltv@Lamentations:5:22 @ unless You have utterly rejected us; You are exceedingly angry against us.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:1 @ And it happened in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:2 @ On the fifth of the month, the fifth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin the king,

gltv@Ezekiel:1:3 @ the word of Jehovah surely became known to Ezekiel, the son of Buzi, the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar. And there the hand of Jehovah was on him.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:4 @ And I looked, and behold, a windstorm came out of the north, a great cloud. and a fire flashing itself, and a brightness to it all around. And out of its midst, like the color of polished bronze it came, out of the midst of the fire.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:5 @ Also from its midst came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was how they looked: they had the likeness of a man,

gltv@Ezekiel:1:6 @ and four faces were to each, and four wings to each of them,

gltv@Ezekiel:1:7 @ and their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their feet like the sole of a calf's foot. And they sparkled like the color of burnished copper.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:8 @ And the hands of a man extended from under their wings on their four sides. And their faces and their wings were to the four of them,

gltv@Ezekiel:1:9 @ joining each one to the other by their wings. They did not turn in their going, each one went toward the front of their face.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:10 @ And the likeness of their faces: the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side to the four of them; and the face of an ox on the left to the four of them, and the face of an eagle to the four of them.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:11 @ So their faces were. And their wings were spread upward, to each, the two wings were joined, and two wings of each covering their bodies.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:12 @ And each went toward the front of their faces. To where the spirit was to go, there they went; they did not turn in their going.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:13 @ And the likeness of the living creatures: they appeared like coals of burning fire, like the appearance of torches; it was continually circling among the living creatures. And the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:14 @ And the living creatures kept running and returning, like the appearance of a flash of lightning.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:15 @ And I looked at the living creatures, and, behold, one wheel was on the earth beside the living creatures, with the four of its faces.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:16 @ The appearance of the wheels and their workmanship was like the color of beryl; and the one likeness was to the four of them. And their appearance and their workmanship was like the wheel in the middle of the wheel.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:17 @ They went on the four of their sides in their going, they did not turn in their going.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:18 @ And also their rims were high to them, even awesome to them. And their rims were full of eyes all around the four of them.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:19 @ And in the going of the living creatures the wheels went beside them. And in the lifting up of the living creatures from on the earth, the wheels were lifted up.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:20 @ There where the spirit was to go, there they went; there their spirit was to go, and the wheels were lifted up along with them. For the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:21 @ In their going, these went; and in their standing still, these stood still. And in their being lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up along with them. For the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:22 @ And a likeness was over the heads of the living creature, an expanse like the color of awesome crystal, stretched out over their heads from above.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:23 @ And under the expanse their wings were straight, the one toward the other, to each, two wings covering on this side, and to each two covering on that side of their bodies.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:24 @ And I heard the sound of their wings like the sound of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty. In their going was the sound of tumult, like the sound of an army. In their standing still, they let down their wings.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:25 @ And there was a voice from the expanse that was over their heads. In their standing still, they let down their wings.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:26 @ And from above the expanse that was over their heads was an appearance like a sapphire stone, the likeness of a throne. And on the likeness of the throne was a likeness in appearance like a man on it from above.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:27 @ And I saw Him, like the color of polished bronze, looking like fire within it all around. From the appearance of His loins and upward, and from the appearance of His loins and downward, I saw Him looking like fire; and brightness to it all around.

gltv@Ezekiel:1:28 @ As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of the rain, so appeared the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Jehovah. And I saw, and I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of One speaking.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:1 @ And He said to me, Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak to you.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:2 @ And the Spirit entered into me as He spoke to me, and He made me stand on my feet, and I heard Him speaking to me.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:3 @ And He said to me, Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to the nations, the rebelling ones who have rebelled against Me. They and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this day.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:4 @ And the sons are stiff of face and hard of heart. I am sending you to them. And you shall say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:5 @ And they, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear (for they are a rebellious house), yea, they shall know that a prophet has been among them.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:6 @ And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them and of their words. Do not be afraid, though briers and thorns are with you, and though you are living among scorpions. Do not be afraid of their words, and do not be frightened by their faces, though they are a house of rebellion.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:7 @ And you shall speak My words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, for they are rebellious.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:8 @ But you, son of man, hear what I am saying to you. Do not be like that rebellious house of rebellion. Open your mouth and eat what I am giving to you.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:9 @ And I looked, and behold, a hand was extended to me. And behold, a roll of a book was in it.

gltv@Ezekiel:2:10 @ And He spread it before me, and it was written on the face and the back. And written on it were weepings, and mourning, and woe.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:1 @ And He said to me, Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this roll, and go speak to the house of Israel.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:2 @ So I opened my mouth, and He made me eat that roll.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:3 @ And He said to me, Son of man, make your belly eat, and fill your bowels with the roll, this that I give to you. And I ate, and it was in my mouth like honey for sweetness.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:4 @ And He said to me, Son of man, Go! Come to the house of Israel and speak with My words to them.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:5 @ For you are not sent to a people of deep lip and hardness of tongue, but to the house of Israel;

gltv@Ezekiel:3:6 @ not to many peoples of deep lip and of a hard tongue, whose words you cannot hear. If rather I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:7 @ But the house of Israel is not willing to listen to you, for they are not willing to listen to Me, for all the house of Israel are strong of forehead and hard of heart.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:8 @ Behold, I have made your face strong over against their faces, and your forehead strong over against their foreheads.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:9 @ I have made your forehead as an adamant harder than flint. Do not fear them, and do not be frightened by their faces, though they are a house of rebellion.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:10 @ And He said to me, Son of man, all My words which I speak to you, receive into your heart, and hear with your ears.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:11 @ And go! Come to the exiles, to the sons of your people, and speak to them, and say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:12 @ And the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me a sound of a great tumult, saying, Blessed be the glory of Jehovah from His place!

gltv@Ezekiel:3:13 @ And there was the sound of the wings of the living creatures touching each one to the other, and the sound of the wheels along with them, and the sound of a great tumult.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:14 @ So the Spirit lifted me up and took me, and I went bitterly in the heat of my spirit, but the hand of Jehovah was strong upon me.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:15 @ Then I came to the exiles at Tel-abib, those dwelling by the river Chebar. And I sat there where they were sitting. I also dwelt there seven days, being benumbed among them.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:16 @ And it happened at the end of the seven days, even it happened that the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:3:17 @ Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. And hear the word of My mouth, and warn them from Me.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:18 @ In My saying to the wicked, Surely you shall die; and you do not warn him, and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, he, the wicked, shall die in his iniquity. But I will require his blood at your hand.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:19 @ And you, because you have warned the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his way, he, the wicked, shall die in his iniquity. But you have delivered your soul.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:20 @ And when the righteous turns from his righteousness and does injustice, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die. Since you have not warned him, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered. But I will require his blood at your hand.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:21 @ But you, because you warned him, the righteous, so that the righteous should not sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live because he is warned. And you have delivered your soul.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:22 @ And the hand of Jehovah was on me there. And He said to me, Rise up, go forth into the plain, and I will speak with you there.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:23 @ And I rose up and went forth into the plain. And, behold, there the glory of Jehovah was standing, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar. And I fell on my face.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:24 @ And the Spirit entered into me and stood me on my feet and spoke with me. And He said to me, Come, shut yourself within your house.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:25 @ But you, son of man, behold, they shall put on you cords and shall bind you with them, and you shall not go out among them.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:26 @ And I will make your tongue cling to your palate, and you shall be dumb. And there shall not be to them a reproving man. For they are a rebellious house.

gltv@Ezekiel:3:27 @ But in My speaking with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah. He who hears, let him hear; and he who stops, let him stop. For they are a rebellious house.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:1 @ And you, son of man, take a brick to yourself, and lay it before you, and engrave on it a city, Jerusalem.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:2 @ And lay a siege on it, and build a fort on it, and pour out a ramp on it. And place a camp on it, and set battering rams all around on it.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:3 @ And you, take a griddle of iron to yourself, and place it as a wall of iron between you and the city. And place your face against it, and it shall be under siege, and thrust upon it. It is a sign to the house of Israel.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:4 @ And you, lie down on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it. The number of the days that you shall lie down on it, you shall bear their iniquity.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:5 @ For I have laid on you the years of their iniquity, according to the number of days: three hundred and ninety days. And you shall bear the house of Israel's iniquity.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:6 @ And when you complete them, even lie on your right side, the second. And you shall bear the house of Judah's iniquity forty days; a day for a year. I have set it for you, a day for a year.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:7 @ And you shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and your arm bared; and you shall prophesy over it.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:8 @ And, behold, I will put cords on you, and you cannot turn from your side to your other side until you have completed the days of your siege.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:9 @ And you, take to yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and place them in a single vessel; and prepare them for yourself into bread, to the number of days that you are lying on your side. You shall eat it three hundred and ninety days.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:10 @ And your food which you shall eat shall be by weight: twenty shekels a day. From time to time you shall eat it.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:12 @ And you shall eat cakes of barley, and you shall bake it with dung of the excrement of man, in their sight.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:13 @ And Jehovah said, Even so the sons of Israel shall eat their defiled bread among the nations there where I will drive them.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:14 @ Then I said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! Behold, my soul has not been defiled. I have not even eaten a carcass or a torn animal, from my youth even until now. And unclean flesh has not come into my mouth.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:15 @ Then He said to me, See, I have given to you the dung of cattle in place of the dung of man. And you shall prepare bread over it.

gltv@Ezekiel:4:16 @ And He said to me, Son of man, behold, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem. And they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxiety. And they shall drink water by measure, and in horror,

gltv@Ezekiel:4:17 @ because they will lack bread and water, and each one be appalled with his brother. And they will waste away in their iniquity.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:1 @ And you, son of man, take to yourself a sharp sword, the razor of a barber. Take it to yourself and make it pass over your head and over your beard. And take to yourself scales to weigh, and to divide them out.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:2 @ You shall burn a third part in the fire, in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled. And you shall take the third part and beat with a sword all around it. And you shall scatter the third part into the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:6 @ And she has changed My judgments for wickedness more than the nations, and defiled My laws more than the lands that are all around her. For they have rejected My judgments and My laws; they have not walked in them.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:7 @ Therefore, so says the Lord Jehovah: Because you rebelled more than the nations that are all around you, not having walked in My laws, and not having performed My judgments, and you have not done according to the judgments of the nations all around you;

gltv@Ezekiel:5:8 @ therefore, so says the Lord Jehovah: Behold! I, even I am against you, and will execute judgments in your midst in the sight of the nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:9 @ And I will do in you that which I have not done, and which I will not do the like again, for all your abominations.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:11 @ Therefore, as I live, says the Lord Jehovah, surely because you have defiled My sanctuary with all your idolatries and with all your abominations, so I also will withdraw. And My eye shall not spare, and I will not have pity.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:12 @ A third part of you shall die by the plague and shall be consumed by the famine in your midst. And a third part shall fall by the sword all around you. And a third part I will scatter into every wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:14 @ And I will make you into a waste and a reproach among the nations that are around you, in the eyes of all who pass by.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:15 @ And it shall be a reproach and a taunt, a chastening and a horror, to the nations which are all around you, when I shall execute against you judgments in anger and in fury and in rebukes among them. I, Jehovah, have spoken it.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:16 @ When I shall send the arrows of evil famine among them, which shall be for ruin, for which I will send them to destroy you, even I will increase the famine on you and break the staff of bread to you.

gltv@Ezekiel:5:17 @ Yea, I will send famine and evil beasts on you, and you will be bereaved. And pestilence and blood shall pass among you, and I shall bring a sword on you. I, Jehovah, have spoken.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:1 @ And it happened, the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:6:2 @ Son of man, set your face towards the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:3 @ And say, Mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Jehovah: So says the Lord Jehovah to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, Behold, I, even I will bring a sword on you, and I will destroy your high places.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:5 @ And I will put the dead bodies of the sons of Israel before their idols, and I will scatter your bones around your altars.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:6 @ In all your dwelling places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be deserted, so that your altars may be laid waste and become guilty, and that your idols may be broken and brought to an end, and your pillars may be cut down, and your works wiped out.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:7 @ And the slain shall fall in your midst, and you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:8 @ Yet I will leave a remainder, so that may be left to you those who escape the sword among the nations, in your scattering among the lands.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:9 @ And those who escape shall remember Me among the nations where they will be exiled, because I was broken by their whoring heart which has turned away from Me, and by their whoring eyes which go after their idols.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:10 @ And they shall know that I am Jehovah; not in vain have I said to do this evil to them.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:11 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Strike with your hand, and stamp with your foot, and say, Alas, for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! For they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the plague.

gltv@Ezekiel:6:12 @ He who is far off shall die by the plague, and he who is near shall fall by the sword, and he who remains and is besieged shall die by the famine. So I will fulfill My fury on them.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:1 @ And it was in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth of the month, I was sitting in my house. And the elders of Judah were sitting before me. And the hand of the Lord Jehovah fell on me there.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:2 @ And I looked, and behold, a likeness as the look of fire, from the appearance of His loins and downward, like fire, and from His loins and upward, as the look of brightness, like the color of polished bronze.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:3 @ And He put forth the form of a hand and took me by a lock of my head. And the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heavens and brought me to Jerusalem (in the visions of God), to the opening of the inner gate facing north, where there was a seat of the image of jealousy, which causes jealousy.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:4 @ And, behold! The glory of the God of Israel was there, like the appearance which I saw in the plain.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:5 @ And He said to me, Son of man, lift up your eyes now to the way of the north. So I lifted up my eyes the way of the north, and, behold, from the north, at the gate of the altar, was this image of jealousy at the entrance.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:6 @ And He said to me, Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations which the house of Israel is doing here, that I should be far from My sanctuary? But you turn again and you shall see greater abominations.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:7 @ And He brought me to the opening of the court. And I looked, and, behold, a single hole in the wall.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:8 @ And He said to me, Son of man, dig now in the wall. And I dug in the wall; and, behold, an opening!

gltv@Ezekiel:8:9 @ And He said to me, Go in and see the evil abominations that they are doing here.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:10 @ And I went in and looked. And, behold, every form of creeping thing, and hateful beast, and all the idols of the house of Israel were carved on the wall all around.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:11 @ And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Jaazaniah, the son of Shaphan, were standing among them. These were standing among them, and each man with his censer in his hand, and the odor of the cloud of incense was rising.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:12 @ And He said to me, Son of man, have you seen what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the dark, each man in the rooms of his image? For they are saying, Jehovah does not see us, Jehovah has forsaken the earth.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:14 @ And He brought me to the opening of the gate of the house of Jehovah, toward the north. And, behold, women were sitting there weeping for Tammuz.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:15 @ And He said to me, Have you seen, son of man? You turn again and you shall see greater abominations than these.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:16 @ And he brought me into the inner court of the house of Jehovah. And, behold, at the opening of the temple of Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty five men with their backs to the temple of Jehovah, and their faces eastward. And they bowed themselves eastward to the sun.

gltv@Ezekiel:8:17 @ And He said to me, Son of man, have you seen? Is it nothing to the house of Judah from doing the abominations which they do here? For they have filled the land with violence and have returned to provoke Me to anger. And, behold, they are putting the branch to their nose!

gltv@Ezekiel:8:18 @ And I also will deal with fury. My eye shall not spare, and I will not have pity. And though they cry in My ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.

gltv@Ezekiel:9:2 @ And, behold, six men were coming from the way of the Upper Gate, which faces north. And each had his shattering weapon in his hand. And one man among them was clothed in linen, and an ink horn of a scribe at his loins. And they went in and stood beside the bronze altar.

gltv@Ezekiel:9:3 @ And the glory of the God of Israel had gone on, from on the cherub where it was on it, to the threshold of the house. And He called to the man clothed in linen with the ink horn of a scribe at his loins.

gltv@Ezekiel:9:4 @ And Jehovah said to him, Pass through in the midst of the city, in the midst of Jerusalem, and mark a mark on the foreheads of the men who are groaning and are mourning over all the abominations that are done in her midst.

gltv@Ezekiel:9:5 @ And He said to those in my hearing, Pass over in the city after him and strike. Do not let your eye spare, and do not have pity.

gltv@Ezekiel:9:6 @ Slay old men, choice men, and virgins, and children, and women, all to destruction. But to every man who has the mark on him, do not come near. And begin from My sanctuary. And they began with the old men who were before the house.

gltv@Ezekiel:9:8 @ And it happened as they struck, and I remained, even I. Then I fell on my face and I cried out and said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! Will You destroy all the remnant of Israel in Your pouring out of Your fury on Jerusalem?

gltv@Ezekiel:9:9 @ And He said to me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and of Judah is very great, and the land is filled with blood, and the city is full of perversity. For they say, Jehovah has forsaken the land; and, Jehovah does not see.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:12 @ And the prince who is among them shall carry on his shoulder in the dark and go forth through the wall. They shall dig to bring out by it. He shall cover his face so that he does not look with the eye on the earth.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:13 @ And I will spread My net on him, and he shall be taken in My snare. And I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans. Yet he will not see it, and he shall die there.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:14 @ And all who are around him, his help and all his bands, I will scatter to every wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:15 @ And they shall know that I am Jehovah when I shall scatter them among the nations and disperse them in the lands.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:16 @ But of them I will leave a number of men from the sword, from the famine, and from the plague, so that they may declare all their abominations among the nations, there where they go. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:17 @ And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:12:18 @ Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with anxiety.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:20 @ And the cities that have people shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:21 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:12:22 @ Son of man, what is this proverb to you on the land of Israel, saying, The days are long, and every vision shall perish?

gltv@Ezekiel:12:23 @ Therefore, tell them, So says the Lord Jehovah: I will make this proverb cease, and they shall not use it again in Israel. However, say to them, The days draw near, and the matter of every vision.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:24 @ For there shall not again be every vain vision, nor slippery divination, within the house of Israel.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:25 @ For I, Jehovah, will speak. The word which I shall speak shall be done, it shall not be drawn out again. For in your days, O house of rebellion, I will say the word and will do it, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:26 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:12:27 @ Son of man, behold, the house of Israel is saying, The vision that he is seeing is for many days, and he prophesies for times far off.

gltv@Ezekiel:12:28 @ So say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah: Not any of My words will be drawn out any longer. What I have spoken, that word shall be done, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:1 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:13:2 @ Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who prophesy. And say to those who prophesy out of their own heart, Hear the word of Jehovah:

gltv@Ezekiel:13:3 @ So says the Lord Jehovah, Woe to the foolish prophets who walk after their own spirit and have seen nothing!

gltv@Ezekiel:13:4 @ O Israel, your prophets are like foxes in the deserts.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:5 @ You have not gone up into the breaks, nor built a wall around the house of Israel, that it might stand in the battle, in the day of Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:6 @ They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, Jehovah declares! And Jehovah has not sent them, but they hoped to confirm their word.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:7 @ Did you not see a vain vision and speak a lying divination? Yet you say, Jehovah declares, though I have not spoken.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:8 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Because you have spoken vanity and have seen a lie, therefore, behold, I am against you, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:9 @ And My hand shall be against the prophets who see vanity, and who divine a lie. They shall not be in the council of My people, and they shall not be written in the writing of the house of Israel, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:10 @ Because, even because they made My people go astray, saying, Peace! and there was no peace. And he builds a wall, and, behold, others daubed it with lime.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:11 @ Say to those daubing with lime, Yea, it will fall. There will be a flooding rain; and you, O hailstones, shall fall, and a raging wind shall break.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:12 @ And, behold, when the wall has fallen, it shall not be said to you, Where is the daubing with which you have daubed?

gltv@Ezekiel:13:13 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: I will even break in My fury with a raging wind. And there shall be a flooding rain in My anger, and hailstones in fury, to consume it.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:14 @ And I will break down the wall that you have daubed with lime and bring it down to the ground; yea, I will bare its base. And it shall fall, and you will be consumed in its midst. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:15 @ And I will fulfill My wrath in the wall, and in those who daubed it with lime. And I will say to you, The wall is not; and, Those who daubed are not,

gltv@Ezekiel:13:16 @ the prophets of Israel who prophesy as to Jerusalem, and who see visions of peace for her. And there is no peace, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:17 @ And you, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who prophesy out of their heart, and prophesy against them,

gltv@Ezekiel:13:18 @ and say, So says the Lord Jehovah: Woe to those sewing bands to all joints of my hands, and make long veils for the head of every man of stature, to hunt souls! Will you hunt the souls of My people, and will you save alive the souls for yourselves?

gltv@Ezekiel:13:19 @ And will you profane Me among My people for handfuls of barley, and for bits of bread, to put to death the souls that should not die, and to save alive the souls that should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies?

gltv@Ezekiel:13:20 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, I am against your bands with which you are hunting the souls there, to make them fly. And I will tear them from your arms, and will send out the souls, souls which you are hunting, to make them fly.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:21 @ Also I will tear your long veils and deliver My people out of your hand. And they shall not again be in your hand to be hunted. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:22 @ Because you have saddened the heart of the righteous with lies, and I have not made him sad, and you have made the hands of the wicked strong, so that he should not turn from his evil way, to keep him alive.

gltv@Ezekiel:13:23 @ So you shall not see vanity, and you shall not divine any divination. And I will deliver My people out of your hand. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:1 @ And the men of the elders of Israel came to me and sat before me.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:2 @ And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:14:7 @ For every man of the house of Israel, or of the alien who resides in Israel, who is separated from after Me and causes his idols to go up in his heart, and puts the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and comes to the prophet to inquire of him concerning Me, I, Jehovah, will answer him Myself.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:8 @ And I will set My face against that man, and I will make him desolate for a sign and for proverbs. And I will cut him off from the midst of My people. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:9 @ And the prophet, if he is deceived, and he speaks a word, I, Jehovah, have deceived that prophet. And I will stretch out My hand on him and will destroy him from the midst of My people Israel.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:10 @ And they shall bear their iniquity. As the iniquity of the inquirer, so the iniquity of the prophet shall be.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:11 @ So that the house of Israel may not stray any more from after Me, and not be defiled again with all their transgressions; but they are to Me for a people, and I will be to them for God, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:12 @ And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:14:13 @ Son of man, when a land sins against Me by traitorous betraying, then I will stretch out My hand on it, and I will shatter the staff of bread to it, and I will send famine on it. And I will cut off from it man and beast.

gltv@Ezekiel:14:23 @ And they will comfort you when you see their way and their doings. And you will know that not in vain I have done all that I did in it, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:15:1 @ And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:15:2 @ Son of man, how is the vine tree more than any other tree, or than a branch that is among the trees of the forest?

gltv@Ezekiel:15:3 @ Shall wood be taken from it to do work? Or will men take from it for a peg to hang every vessel on it?

gltv@Ezekiel:15:4 @ Behold, it is put in the fire for fuel. The fire devours both its ends, and its middle is charred. Will it prosper for work?

gltv@Ezekiel:15:5 @ Behold, when it was whole it was not made for work. How much less when the fire has devoured it, and it is charred! Shall it yet be made to work?

gltv@Ezekiel:15:6 @ Therefore, so says the Lord Jehovah: As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, it which I have given to the fire for fuel, so I will give the dwellers of Jerusalem.

gltv@Ezekiel:15:7 @ And I will set my face against them. They shall go out from the fire, and the fire shall devour them. And you shall know that I am Jehovah when I set My face against them.

gltv@Ezekiel:15:8 @ And I will give the land to be desolate because they have done a treacherous act, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:1 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:16:2 @ Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,

gltv@Ezekiel:16:3 @ and say, So says the Lord Jehovah to Jerusalem: Your origin and your birth is of the land of Canaan. Your father was an Amorite and your mother a Hittite.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:4 @ As for your birth, in the day you were born, your navel was not cut, and you were not washed with water to cleanse you. And you were not salted, and you were not at all swaddled.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:5 @ And eye did not have pity on you to do to you one of these, to have compassion on you. But you were thrown into the face of the field, for your person was loathed in the day you were born.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:6 @ And when I passed by you and saw you squirming in your blood, I said to you in your blood, Live! Yea, I said to you in your blood, Live!

gltv@Ezekiel:16:7 @ As a myriad, as the field shoot I have made you, and you are grown and are great. And you come in the finest ornaments. Your breasts are formed, and your hair is grown, yet you were naked and bare.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:8 @ And I passed by you, and I looked on you, and, behold, your time was the time of love. And I spread My skirt over you and covered your nakedness. And I swore to you and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Lord Jehovah. And you became Mine.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:9 @ And I washed you with water; I washed away your blood from you, and I anointed you with oil.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:10 @ And I dressed you with embroidered work, and I shod you with dugong sandals. And I wrapped you in fine linen, and I covered you with silk.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:11 @ And I adorned you with ornaments, and I put bracelets on your hands and a chain on your neck.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:12 @ And I put a ring on your nose and earrings on your ears and a crown of beauty on your head.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:13 @ And you were adorned with gold and silver. And your clothing was fine linen and silk and embroidered work. Fine flour and honey and oil you ate. And you were very, very beautiful. And you advanced to regal estate.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:14 @ And your name went out among the nations, because of your beauty, for it was perfect by My splendor which I had set on you, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:15 @ But you trusted in your beauty, and you prostituted yourself because of your name, and poured out your fornications on all who passed by; it was to him!

gltv@Ezekiel:16:16 @ And you took from your clothes and made for you high places of various colors, and fornicated on them, such as had not come, nor shall be.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:17 @ And you have taken beautiful things of My gold and of My silver, which I had given to you, and you made images of males, and fornicated with them.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:18 @ And you took your embroidered clothes and covered them. And My oil and My incense you have given to their face.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:19 @ Also My food which I gave you, fine flour and oil and honey which I fed you, you have given it to their face for a soothing aroma. And it happened, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:20 @ And you have taken your sons and your daughters whom you have borne to Me, and you gave these to them for food. Are your fornications small?

gltv@Ezekiel:16:21 @ You have slaughtered My sons, and you gave them to cause these to pass through the fire for them.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:22 @ And in all your abominations and your fornications you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, when you were squirming In your blood.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:23 @ Woe, woe to you, says the Lord Jehovah! For it happened, after all your evil,

gltv@Ezekiel:16:24 @ Woe to you that you have also built yourself a mound, and you have made yourself a high place in every open place!

gltv@Ezekiel:16:25 @ At the head of every highway you have built your high place, and have made your beauty despised. And you have parted your feet to all who passed by, and have multiplied your fornications.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:26 @ You have fornicated with the sons of Egypt, your neighbors, great of flesh. And you have multiplied your fornications to provoke Me to anger.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:27 @ And behold, I have stretched out My hand over you, and I drew back your portion. And I gave you to the will of those hating you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your wicked way.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:28 @ You have fornicated with the sons of Assyria without being satisfied. Yea, you fornicated and yet you were not satisfied.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:29 @ And you have multiplied your fornication in the land of Canaan, to the Chaldean, and yet you were not satisfied with this.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:30 @ How weak is your heart, declares the Lord Jehovah, since you do all these, the work of a woman, an overbearing prostitute,

gltv@Ezekiel:16:31 @ in that you built your mound in the head of every highway, and you make your high place in every open place; yet you have not been as a prostitute, even scorning wages.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:34 @ And in you was the opposite from those women in your fornications, since no one whores after you, and in your giving wages, and hire is not given to you. In this you are opposite.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:35 @ Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah,

gltv@Ezekiel:16:36 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Because your lewdness was poured out, and your nakedness was bared in your fornications with your lovers and with the idols of your abominations, and by the blood of your sons whom you gave to them;

gltv@Ezekiel:16:37 @ therefore, behold, I will gather all your lovers with whom you have been pleased, even all whom you have loved, with all whom you have hated, I will even gather them against you from all around, and will uncover your nakedness to them. Yea, they will see all your nakedness.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:38 @ And I will judge you with judgments of adulteresses, and with shedders of blood. And I will give you blood of fury and jealousy.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:39 @ And I will give you into their hand, and they will tear down your mound, and will demolish your high places. They shall also strip you of your clothes and shall take your beautiful things, and leave you naked and bare.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:41 @ And they shall burn your houses with fire and make judgments against you in the sight of many women. And I will make you stop fornicating; and, also, you shall not give hire again.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:42 @ So I will make My fury to rest against you, and My jealousy shall depart from you. And I will be quiet and will not be angry more.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:43 @ Because you have not remembered the days of your youth, but have troubled Me in all these, so, behold, I also will give your way back on your head, declares the Lord Jehovah. And you shall not commit the wickedness above all your abominations.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:48 @ As I live, declares the Lord Jehovah, your sister Sodom, she and her daughters, have not done as you and your daughters have done.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:49 @ Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and her daughters. Also, she did not strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:50 @ Also, they were haughty and did abomination before My face, so I turned them away as I saw fit.

gltv@Ezekiel:16:51 @ And Samaria has not sinned as much as half your sins, but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and have justified your sisters in all your abominations which you have done.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:4 @ He plucked off the first of its young twigs and brought it into a land of traders. He set it in a city of merchants.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:5 @ He also took of the seed of the land and planted it in a field of seed. He took it by great waters; he set it as a willow.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:6 @ And it sprouted and became a spreading low vine, and it turned its branches to face toward him, and its roots were under him. So it became a vine and made branches, and sent out boughs.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:7 @ Also there was another great eagle with great wings and many feathers. And, behold, this vine bent its roots toward him, and sent out its branches to him, to water it, away from the beds of its planting.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:8 @ It was planted in a good field by great waters to make branches and to bear fruit, to be a splendid vine.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:9 @ Say, So says the Lord Jehovah: Shall it prosper? Shall he not pull up its roots and cut off its fruit and wither it? All the leaves of its sprouting shall wither, and not with great arm, nor by many people shall any raise it by its roots.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:10 @ And behold, being planted, shall it prosper? Shall it not utterly wither when the east wind touches it? It shall wither in the beds where it sprouted.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:11 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:17:12 @ Say now to the rebellious house, Do you not know what these mean? But speak, Behold, the king of Babylon has come to Jerusalem, and has taken its king and its rulers, and has brought them to himself at Babylon.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:13 @ And he took of the royal seed, and he has cut with him a covenant and has made him enter into an oath. And he took the mighty of the land,

gltv@Ezekiel:17:15 @ But he rebelled against him in sending his messengers to Egypt, to give horses and many people to him. Shall he prosper? Shall he who does these things escape? Or shall he break the covenant and be delivered?

gltv@Ezekiel:17:16 @ As I live, declares the Lord Jehovah, Surely, in the place of the king who made him king, whose oath he despised and whose covenant he broke, there he shall die with him in the midst of Babylon.

gltv@Ezekiel:17:17 @ And Pharaoh shall not work for him with great army or great company in the war by pouring out mounds and building siege walls to cut off many souls.

gltv@Ezekiel:20:7 @ Then I said to them, Let each man cast away the filthy idols of his eyes, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am Jehovah your God.

gltv@Ezekiel:20:8 @ But they rebelled against Me and would not listen to Me. They did not each man throw away the filthy idols of their eyes, and they did not forsake the idols of Egypt.

gltv@Ezekiel:20:9 @ But I worked for My name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the eyes of the nations among whom they were, for I made Myself known to them in their eyes, by bringing them out of the land of Egypt.

gltv@Ezekiel:20:26 @ And I defiled them by their own gifts, by making all that open the womb to cross the fire, so that I might waste them, to the end that they might know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:8 @ And she did not leave her fornications from Egypt. For they lay with her in her youth, and they worked her virgin nipples and poured their fornications on her.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:9 @ So I have given her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the sons of Assyria on whom she lusted.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:10 @ They uncovered her nakedness. They took her sons and her daughters. And they killed her with the sword. And she became notorious among women, and they executed judgments on her.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:11 @ And her sister Oholibah saw. And she was more corrupt in her lustfulness than she, and her fornications were greater than her sister's whoredom.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:12 @ She lusted to the sons of Assyria, neighboring governors and rulers clothed most perfectly, horsemen riding horses, all of them desirable young men.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:13 @ Then I saw that she was defiled, one way was to both of them.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:14 @ And she added to her fornications. And she saw men carved on the wall, images of the Chaldeans engraved with red color,

gltv@Ezekiel:23:15 @ girded with girdles on their loins, with overflowing turbans on their heads, the look of rulers, all of them, like the sons of Babylon in Chaldea, the land of their birth.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:16 @ And she lusted after them, to the look of her eyes, and sent messengers to them into Chaldea.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:17 @ And the sons of Babylon came to her, to the bed of love. And they defiled her with their fornications. And she was defiled with them, and her soul was alienated from them.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:18 @ And she uncovered her fornications and uncovered her nakedness. Then My soul was alienated from her just as My soul was alienated from her sister.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:19 @ And she multiplied her fornications to recall the days of her youth, in which she had fornicated in the land of Egypt.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:20 @ And she lusted on their lovers of whom the flesh of asses resembles their flesh, and as the issue of horses was their issue.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:21 @ So you longed for the wickedness of your youth, when from Egypt they worked your nipples, for the sake of the breasts of your youth.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:22 @ So, O Oholibah, the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, I will arouse your lovers against you, from whom your soul is alienated. And I will bring them against you from all around,

gltv@Ezekiel:23:23 @ Babylon's sons and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, and Shoa, and Koa, all the sons of Assyria with them, desirable young men, governors and rulers, all of them, third heads and called ones, all of them riding horses.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:24 @ And they shall come against you with weapons, chariots, and wheels, and with a group of peoples; buckler and shield and helmet shall set against you all around. And I will give before them judgment, and they will judge you by their judgments.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:25 @ And I will give My jealousy against you, and they will deal with you in fury. Your nose and your ears they will take, and the rest of you shall fall by the sword. They will take your sons and your daughters, and the rest of you shall be devoured by the fire.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:26 @ And they will strip you of your clothes, and take the articles of your beauty.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:27 @ And I will cause your wickedness to cease from you, and your fornication from the land of Egypt. And you shall not lift up your eyes to them, and Egypt shall not be remembered by you any more.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:28 @ For so says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will give you in the hand of those whom you hate, in the hand of whom your soul was alienated from them.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:29 @ And they shall deal with you in hatred and take all your wealth, and shall leave you naked and bare. And the nudity of your adulteries will be bared, even your lewdness and your fornications.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:30 @ These will be done to you because you have whored after the nations, because you are defiled with their idols.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:31 @ You have walked in the way of your sister, and I will give her cup into your hand.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:32 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: You shall drink your sister's cup deep and wide; you shall be laughed at and mocked, for it holds much.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:33 @ With drunkenness and sorrow you are filled, the cup of horror and ruin, the cup of your sister Samaria.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:34 @ And you shall drink it and drain it. And you shall break its fragments and tear off your breasts. For I have spoken, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:35 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Because you have forgotten Me and cast Me behind your back, so also you bear your wickedness and your adulteries.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:36 @ And Jehovah said to me, Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:37 @ For they committed adultery, and blood is on their hands. Yea, they committed adultery with their idols, and even their sons whom they bore to Me, they cause to pass to them to be consumed.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:38 @ Even still they have done this to Me: They have defiled My sanctuary in that day, and have profaned My sabbaths.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:39 @ And when they had slain their sons to their idols, then they came into My sanctuary in that day to profane it. And, lo, this they have done in the midst of My house.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:40 @ Furthermore, they have sent for men to come from a distance, of whom a messenger was sent to them. And behold, they came, for whom you washed, painted your eyes, and were adorned with gems.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:41 @ And you sat on a glorious bed, and a table was arranged before it, and My incense and My oil you set on it.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:42 @ And the sound of a crowd at ease was with her, and drunkards from the wilderness were brought with the men of the host of mankind. And they put bracelets on their hands and crowns of beauty on their heads.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:43 @ Then I said about the one worn in adulteries, Will they now fornicate with her, and she with them?

gltv@Ezekiel:23:44 @ And they went in to her. As they go in to a woman of harlotry, so they went in to Oholah and to Oholibah, the wicked women.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:45 @ And as righteous men, they shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, and the judgment of women who shed blood, because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:46 @ For so says the Lord Jehovah: Bring up on them an assembly, and give them to terror and plunder.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:47 @ And the assembly shall stone them with stones and cut them down with their swords. They shall slay their sons and their daughters, and they shall burn their houses with fire.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:48 @ So I will cause to cease wickedness out of the land, that all the women may be taught, even not to do according to your wickedness.

gltv@Ezekiel:23:49 @ And they shall put your wickedness on you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols. And you shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:1 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth of the month, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:24:2 @ Son of man, write for yourself the name of the day, this very day. The king of Babylon has leaned toward Jerusalem in this very day.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:3 @ And parable a parable to the house of rebellion, and say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah: Set on the pot! Set on, and also pour water in it.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:4 @ Gather its pieces into it, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder. Fill it with choice bones,

gltv@Ezekiel:24:5 @ take the choice of the flock and also pile the bones under it. Boiling make it boil. Also let them seethe its bones in it.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:6 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose rust is in it, and its rust has not gone out of it! Bring it out piece by piece. Let not a lot fall on it.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:7 @ For her blood is in her midst, she set it on a shining rock. She did not pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:8 @ In order to cause fury to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on a shining rock, that it should not be covered.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:9 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Woe to the bloody city! I also shall heap on the pile,

gltv@Ezekiel:24:10 @ and heap on the wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and mix in the spice, and let the bones be burned.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:11 @ Then make it stand on its coals empty, so that it may be hot and its bronze may glow, and its defilement be melted in its midst, that its rust may be consumed.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:12 @ She is wearied with toil, and the increase of her rust did not go out, her rust will be in the fire.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:13 @ In your defilement is wickedness. Because I have cleansed you, yet you are not clean, you shall not be cleansed from your defilement any more until I have caused My fury to cease on you.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:14 @ I, Jehovah, have spoken; it shall come, and I will do it. I will not let go, and I will not spare, I will not pity. By your ways and by your doings they shall judge you, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:15 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:24:16 @ Son of man, behold, I am taking from you the desire of your eyes with a blow. Yet you shall not wail nor weep, and your tears shall not come.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:17 @ Groan, but be silent; do not make a mourning for the dead. Bind your turban on you, and put your sandals on your feet, and do not cover the mustache nor eat the bread of men.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:18 @ So I spoke to the people in the morning. And my wife died in the evening. And I did in the morning as I was commanded.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:19 @ And the people said to me, Will you not tell us what the things you are doing are to us?

gltv@Ezekiel:24:20 @ Then I said to them, The word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:24:21 @ Speak to the house of Israel, So says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will profane My sanctuary, the pride of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities. And your sons and your daughters whom you have forsaken shall fall by the sword.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:22 @ And you shall do as I have done. You shall not cover over the mustache, and you shall not eat the bread of men.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:23 @ And your turbans shall be on your heads and your sandals on your feet. You shall not wail nor weep, but you shall rot away in your iniquities, and each man groan to his brother.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:24 @ So is for a sign to you. As all that he has done, you shall do. And when it comes, then you shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:25 @ And you, son of man, will it not be on the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their beauty, the desire of their eyes, and the lifting up of their soul, their sons and their daughters?

gltv@Ezekiel:24:26 @ He will come in that day, he who escaped to you, to cause you to hear with your ears.

gltv@Ezekiel:24:27 @ In that day your mouth shall be opened to the escaped one, and you shall speak and not be dumb any longer. And you shall be to them a sign, and they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:1 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:25:2 @ Son of man, set your face against the sons of Ammon and prophesy against them.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:3 @ And say to the sons of Ammon, Hear the word of the Lord Jehovah. So says the Lord Jehovah: Because you have said, Aha! against My sanctuary when it was profaned, and against the land of Israel when it was ruined, and against the house of Judah when they went into exile;

gltv@Ezekiel:25:4 @ therefore, behold, I will give you to the sons of the east for a possession. And they shall set their camp sites among you, and put among you their dwellings. They shall eat your fruit, and they shall drink your milk.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:6 @ For so says the Lord Jehovah: Because you have clapped the hand, and you stamped the foot, and rejoiced with all your spite in your soul against the land of Israel;

gltv@Ezekiel:25:7 @ so, behold, I will stretch out My hand on you and will give you as a prize to the nations. And I will cut you off from the peoples, and I will make you perish from the lands; I will destroy you, and you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:8 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Because Moab and Seir say, Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:9 @ So behold! I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities, from his borders, the glory of the land: Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriath-aim.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:10 @ To the sons of the east, with the sons of Ammon, even I will give it for a possession so that the sons of Ammon may not be remembered among the nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:11 @ And I will execute judgments on Moab. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:25:12 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Because Edom has acted by taking vengeance against the house of Judah, and they are very guilty and are avenged on them,

gltv@Ezekiel:26:4 @ And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her and make her like a shining rock.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:5 @ It shall be a spreading place for nets in the middle of the sea. for I have spoken, declares the Lord Jehovah. And she shall be a spoil to the nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:6 @ And her daughters who are in the field shall be killed by the sword. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:8 @ He shall kill your daughters in the field with the sword. And he shall give siege walls against you and pour out a mound against you, and raise a buckler against you.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:12 @ And they shall strip your wealth and plunder your merchandise. And they shall tear down your walls and destroy your desirable houses. And they shall set your stones and your timber and your dust in the midst of the water.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:13 @ And I will make cease the noise of your songs. And the sound of your harps shall not be heard any more.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:14 @ And I will make you like a shining rock. You shall be a spreading place for nets, you shall not be built any more. For I, Jehovah, have spoken, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:26:15 @ So says the Lord Jehovah to Tyre: Shall not the coast lands shake at the sound of your fall, when the slain groan, in the slaying of the slaughter in your midst?

gltv@Ezekiel:26:16 @ And all the rulers of the sea shall come down from their thrones and lay aside their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. they shall be clothed with trembling. They shall sit on the ground and shall tremble at every moment and be appalled at you.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:1 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:35:2 @ Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:3 @ And say to it, So says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch My hand against you, and I will make you a ruin and a waste.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:4 @ I will lay your cities waste, and you shall be a ruin. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:5 @ Because there was to you never-ending enmity, and you poured out the sons of Israel to the hands of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the end.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:6 @ Therefore, As I live, declares the Lord Jehovah, surely for blood I appoint you, and blood shall pursue you. Since you have not hated blood, so blood shall pursue you.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:7 @ And I will make Mount Seir a ruin and a waste, and cut off from it the one passing through, and the one returning.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:8 @ And I will fill his mountains with his slain. In your hills and in your valleys, and in your every torrent, the slain by the sword shall fall in them.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:9 @ I will make you ruins forever, and your cities shall not be inhabited. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:10 @ Because you have said, these two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we shall possess it (yet Jehovah was there),

gltv@Ezekiel:35:11 @ so, As I live, declares the Lord Jehovah, I will act by your anger and by envy which you have done out of your hatred against them, and I will be known among them when I have judged you.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:12 @ And you shall know that I am Jehovah. I have heard all your revilings which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, Desolation! They are given to us for food!

gltv@Ezekiel:35:13 @ And you magnified with your mouth against Me and have multiplied your words against Me; I have heard.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:14 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: As all the earth rejoices, I will make you a ruin.

gltv@Ezekiel:35:15 @ As you rejoiced at the inheritance of the house of Israel because of desolation, so I will do to you. You shall be a ruin, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it! And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:1 @ And you, son of man, prophesy to Israel's mountains and say, O heights of Israel, hear the word of Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:2 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Because the enemy has spoken against you, saying, Aha! Everlasting heights have become a possession to us.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:3 @ So prophesy and say, So says the Lord Jehovah: Because, yea, because of the wasting and crushing of you from all around, that you might be a possession to the rest of the nations, and you were lifted on the tip of the tongue, and the whispering of the people.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:4 @ Therefore, mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Jehovah: So says the Lord Jehovah to the mountains and to the hills, to the ravines and to the valleys, to the wastes of desolation, and to the forsaken cities which became a prey and a mocking to the rest of the nations all around.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:5 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: Surely I have spoken in the fire of My jealousy against the rest of the nations, and against Edom, all those of her who have given My land to themselves for a possession with all joy of heart, with scorning of soul, in order to make it open land for a prey.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:6 @ So prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains and to the hills, to the ravines and to the valleys, So says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I have spoken in My jealousy and in My fury, because you have borne the shame of the nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:7 @ So the Lord Jehovah says this: I have lifted up My hand, surely the nations that surround you, they shall bear their shame.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:8 @ But you, O mountains of Israel, you shall put out your branches and your fruit, you shall bear for My people Israel. For they are drawing near to come.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:9 @ For behold, I am for you, and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:10 @ And I will multiply men on you, all the house of Israel, all of it. and the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be built.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:11 @ And I will multiply men on you, and beast, and they will grow and be fruitful. And I will make you dwell as you formerly were, and I will do better than at your beginnings. And you shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:12 @ Yea, I will cause men to walk on you, My people Israel; and they shall possess you, and you will be an inheritance to them and will not any more increase their bereavement.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:13 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Because they said to you, You are a devourer of men, and you have bereaved your nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:14 @ So you shall no longer devour men, and you shall not make your nations fall any more, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:15 @ And I will not let you bear the shame of the nations any longer, and you shall not bear the disgrace of the peoples any more, and you shall not cause your nations to fall any more, declares the Lord Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:16 @ And the word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

gltv@Ezekiel:36:17 @ Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt on their land, they even defiled it by their ways and by their doings. As the defilement of woman's impurity, their way was before Me

gltv@Ezekiel:36:18 @ So I poured out My fury on them, because of the blood that they had poured out on the land, and for their idols by which they defiled it.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:19 @ And I scattered them among the nations, and they were sown among the lands; I judged them by their way and by their doings.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:20 @ And when they entered into the nations, there where they went, they even profaned My holy name, by saying to them, These are the people of Jehovah, and they are gone out of His land.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:21 @ But I had pity for My holy name which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, there where they went.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:22 @ Therefore, say to the house of Israel, So says the Lord Jehovah: I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but only for My holy name which you profaned among the nations, there where you went.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:23 @ And I will sanctify My great name which was profaned among the nations, which you profaned among them. And the nations shall know that I am Jehovah, declares the Lord Jehovah, when I am sanctified in you in their eyes.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:24 @ For I will take you from the nations and gather you out of all the lands and bring you into your land.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:25 @ Then I will sprinkle clean waters on you, and you shall be clean. I will cleanse you from all your defilement and from all your idols.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:26 @ And I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. And I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give to you a heart of flesh.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:27 @ And I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you shall keep My judgments and do them.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:28 @ And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. And you shall be a people to Me, and I will be God to you.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:29 @ I will also save you from all your defilements, and I will call for grain and increase it, and I will not put a famine on you.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:30 @ And I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the produce of the field, in order that you will not any more receive the disgrace of famine among the nations.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:31 @ And you will remember your evil ways and your doings that were not good, and you will despise yourselves in your own eyes for your iniquities and for your abominations.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:32 @ Let it be known to you that I am not doing this for your sake, states the Lord Jehovah. Be ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:33 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: In the day I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the wastes shall be built.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:34 @ And the desolated land shall be cultivated, rather than being a ruin in the eyes of all passing by.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:35 @ And they shall say, This land that was desolated has become like the garden of Eden. And the wasted and desolated and razed cities are fortified and inhabited.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:36 @ And the nations left all around you shall know that I, Jehovah, built the razed places and planted that which was desolated. I, Jehovah have spoken it and will do it.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:37 @ So says the Lord Jehovah: Yet for this I will be sought by the house of Israel, to work for them. I will increase them with men like a flock.

gltv@Ezekiel:36:38 @ Like a holy flock, like the flock of Jerusalem in her appointed feasts, so the wasted cities shall be filled with flocks of men. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.

gltv@Ezekiel:37:1 @ The hand of Jehovah was on me. And He brought me by the Spirit of Jehovah and made me rest in the midst of a valley, and it was full of bones.

gltv@Ezekiel:37:2 @ And He made me pass among them all around. And, behold, very many were on the face of the valley. And, behold! They were very dry.

gltv@Ezekiel:37:3 @ And He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I said, O Lord Jehovah, You know.

gltv@Ezekiel:37:8 @ And I watched. And, behold! The sinews and the flesh came up on them, and the skin spread over them from above. But there was no breath in them.

gltv@Ezekiel:37:10 @ So I prophesied as He commanded me, and the Spirit came into them. And they lived and stood on their feet, a very great army.

gltv@Ezekiel:47:1 @ And he led me back to the door of the house. And, behold, water came out from under the threshold of the house eastward. For the face of the house is east, and the water came down from under the right side of the house, at the south from the altar.

gltv@Ezekiel:47:2 @ And he led me out by way of the north gate, and led me around the way outside to the outer gate, by the way facing east. And, behold, water was trickling out of the right side.

gltv@Ezekiel:47:3 @ When the man went out eastward, and the line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits. And he passed me through the water, water to the ankles.

gltv@Ezekiel:47:4 @ And he measured a thousand and passed me through the water, water to the knees. And he measured a thousand, and passed me through water to the loins.

gltv@Ezekiel:47:5 @ And he measured a thousand, and there was a torrent which I was not able to pass, for the water had risen, water to swim in, a torrent that could not be passed.

gltv@Ezekiel:47:6 @ And he said to me, Have you seen, son of man? And he led me and made me return to the lip of the torrent.

gltv@Daniel:1:10 @ And the chief of the eunuchs said to Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who has chosen your food and your drink. For why should he see your faces worse looking than the boys who are in your term? Then you would forfeit my head to the king.

gltv@Daniel:1:11 @ And said to Melzar, whom the chief of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,

gltv@Daniel:1:12 @ I beg you, test your servants ten days. And let vegetables be given to us that we may eat, and water that we may drink.

gltv@Daniel:1:13 @ Then let our face be seen before you, our look and the look of the boys who eat of the king's food. And as you see, deal so with your servants.

gltv@Daniel:1:14 @ And he listened to them in this matter and tested them for ten days.

gltv@Daniel:1:15 @ And at the end of ten days their faces looked better and fatter of flesh than all the boys who were eating the king's food.

gltv@Daniel:1:16 @ So Melzar took away their food and the wine that they were to drink, and he gave them vegetables.

gltv@Daniel:1:17 @ As for these four boys, God gave them knowledge and skill in all writing and wisdom. And had understanding in all visions and dreams.

gltv@Daniel:1:18 @ And at the end of the days that the king had said to bring them in, the chief of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.

gltv@Daniel:1:19 @ And the king talked with them. And among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. So they stood before the king.

gltv@Daniel:1:20 @ And in any matter of wisdom and understanding that the king asked from them, he found them ten times better than. all the horoscopists and the conjurers who were in all his kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:2:1 @ And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar was dreaming dreams, and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep was finished on him.

gltv@Daniel:2:3 @ And the king said to them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.

gltv@Daniel:2:4 @ And the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic: O king, live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will reveal the meaning.

gltv@Daniel:2:5 @ The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The word is certainly gone from me. If you will not make known the dream and its meaning to me, you will be made into mere members, and your houses shall be made an outhouse.

gltv@Daniel:2:6 @ But if you make known the dream, you shall receive gifts and a present and great honor from before me. Therefore, reveal the dream and its meaning to me.

gltv@Daniel:2:7 @ They again replied and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will reveal its meaning.

gltv@Daniel:2:8 @ The king answered and said, For I know that you buy time, that on account of all, you see the thing is certainly gone from me.

gltv@Daniel:2:9 @ But if you will not make the dream known to me, there is one law for you. For you have agreed upon lying and deceiving words to speak before me until the time has changed. Therefore, tell me the dream, then I shall know that you can reveal the meaning to me.

gltv@Daniel:2:10 @ The Chaldeans replied before the king and said, There is not a man on the earth who can reveal the king's matter, because not any king, lord, or ruler has asked such a thing from any horoscopist, or conjurer, or Chaldean.

gltv@Daniel:2:11 @ And the thing that the king asks is rare. And there is no other who may reveal it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.

gltv@Daniel:2:13 @ And the law went out that the wise men should be killed. And they looked for and his companions, to be killed.

gltv@Daniel:2:14 @ Then answered with counsel and insight to Arioch the chief of the king's bodyguard, who had gone out to kill the wise men of Babylon.

gltv@Daniel:2:15 @ He answered and said to Arioch, the king's officer, Why is the decree so hasty from before the king? And Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.

gltv@Daniel:2:16 @ And went in and asked of the king that he would give him time, and he would show the king the meaning.

gltv@Daniel:2:17 @ Then went to his house and declared the thing to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions,

gltv@Daniel:2:18 @ that they might pray for the mercies of God in Heaven about this secret, that and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

gltv@Daniel:2:24 @ Then went in to Arioch, whom the king had chosen to destroy the wise men of Babylon. He went and said this to him, Do not destroy the wise men of Babylon. Bring me in before the king, and I will show the meaning to the king.

gltv@Daniel:2:25 @ Then Arioch quickly brought in before the king and spoke this to him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah who will make the meaning known to the king.

gltv@Daniel:2:26 @ The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Are you able to reveal to me the dream which I have seen, and its meaning?

gltv@Daniel:2:31 @ You, O king, were seeing. And, behold, a certain great image! That great image stood before you with a brilliant brightness, and its form was dreadful.

gltv@Daniel:2:32 @ The head of this image was of fine gold, its breast and its arms were of silver, its belly and its thighs were of bronze,

gltv@Daniel:2:33 @ its legs were of iron, its feet were partly of iron and partly of clay.

gltv@Daniel:2:34 @ You continued until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them to pieces.

gltv@Daniel:2:35 @ Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were together broken to pieces, and they became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors.

gltv@Daniel:2:36 @ This is the dream, and we will tell the meaning of it before the king.

gltv@Daniel:2:37 @ You O king are the king of kings. For the God of Heaven has given you the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the honor.

gltv@Daniel:2:38 @ And wherever the sons of men, the animals of the field, and the birds of the sky dwell, He has given them into your hand, and has made you ruler over them all. You are the head of gold.

gltv@Daniel:2:39 @ And in your place shall arise another kingdom lower than yours, and another third kingdom of bronze, which shall rule in all the earth.

gltv@Daniel:2:40 @ And the fourth kingdom shall be as strong as iron. Inasmuch as iron crushes and smashes all things, and as the iron that shatters all these, it will crush and shatter.

gltv@Daniel:2:41 @ And as to that you saw, the feet and the toes were partly of potters' clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided. But there shall be in it the strength of iron, because you saw the iron mixed with clay of the potter.

gltv@Daniel:2:42 @ And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile.

gltv@Daniel:2:43 @ And as you saw the iron mixed with the clay of the clay, they shall be mixed with the seed of men. But they shall not adhere to one another, even as iron does not mix with clay.

gltv@Daniel:2:44 @ And in the days of these kings, the God of Heaven shall set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed. And the kingdom shall not be left to other people. It shall break in pieces and destroy all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

gltv@Daniel:2:45 @ Because you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold in pieces.

gltv@Daniel:3:12 @ There are men, Jews, whom you have set over the business of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, O king, do not pay attention to you. They do not serve your gods or worship the golden image which you have set up.

gltv@Daniel:3:13 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar in anger and wrath commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king.

gltv@Daniel:3:14 @ Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said to them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego that you are not serving my gods, nor worshiping the golden image which I have set up?

gltv@Daniel:3:15 @ Now if you are ready, at the time you hear the sound of the horn, the pipe, zither, the lyre, harp, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, fall down and worship the image which I have made. But if you do not worship, in that moment you shall be thrown into the middle of a burning, fiery furnace. And who is that god who shall deliver you out of my hand?

gltv@Daniel:3:16 @ Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to return a word to you on this matter.

gltv@Daniel:3:17 @ If it is so that our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning, fiery furnace, then He will deliver out of your hand, O king.

gltv@Daniel:3:18 @ And if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image which you have set up.

gltv@Daniel:3:19 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with wrath, and the form of his face was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He spoke and commanded to heat the furnace seven times more than it was usual to heat it.

gltv@Daniel:3:20 @ And he commanded mighty men of valor in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to throw them into the burning, fiery furnace.

gltv@Daniel:3:21 @ Then these men were tied up in their slippers, their tunics, and their mantles, and their other clothes, and were thrown into the middle of the burning, fiery furnace.

gltv@Daniel:3:22 @ Then, because the king's command was urgent, and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

gltv@Daniel:3:23 @ And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the middle of the burning, fiery furnace.

gltv@Daniel:3:24 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was amazed. And he rose up in haste; he spoke and said to his royal officials, Did we not throw three men bound into the middle of the fire? They replied and said to the king, True, O king.

gltv@Daniel:3:25 @ He answered and said, Behold! I see four men loose, walking in the middle of the fire, and there is no harm among them. And the form of the fourth is like a son of the gods.

gltv@Daniel:3:26 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the door of the burning, fiery furnace. He answered and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the most high God, come out and come here. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the middle of the fire.

gltv@Daniel:3:27 @ And the satraps, the prefects, the governors, and the king's officials assembled. And they saw these men on whose bodies the fire had no power, and the hair of their head was not scorched, nor were their slippers changed, nor had the smell of fire clung on them.

gltv@Daniel:3:28 @ Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His Angel and has delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and have changed the king's words, and have given their bodies that they might not serve nor worship any god except their own God.

gltv@Daniel:3:29 @ And a decree is given by me, that every people, nation, and language who speak anything amiss about the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, he will be made into mere members and his house shall be made an outhouse. Because there is no other God who is able to deliver like this.

gltv@Daniel:3:30 @ Then the king made Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego prosper in the province of Babylon.

gltv@Daniel:4:1 @ Nebuchadnezzar the king to all the peoples, the nations, and the tongues that dwell in all the earth: Your peace be multiplied.

gltv@Daniel:4:2 @ It seemed good before me to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God has done with me.

gltv@Daniel:4:3 @ How great are His signs! And how mighty are His wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and His rule is from generation to generation.

gltv@Daniel:4:4 @ I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at ease in my house, and flourishing in my palace.

gltv@Daniel:4:5 @ I saw a dream, and it terrified me, and the thoughts on my bed and visions of my head troubled me.

gltv@Daniel:4:6 @ So I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known to me the meaning of the dream.

gltv@Daniel:4:7 @ Then the horoscopists, the conjurers, the Chaldeans, and the fortunetellers came in. And I told the dream before them, but they did not make its meaning known to me.

gltv@Daniel:4:8 @ But at last came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. And I told the dream before him, saying,

gltv@Daniel:4:9 @ O Belteshazzar, master of the horoscopists, because I now that the spirit of the holy gods is in you, and no secret troubles you, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its meaning.

gltv@Daniel:4:10 @ As to the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and. behold, a tree was in the middle of the earth. And its height was great.

gltv@Daniel:4:11 @ The tree became great and strong, and its height reached to the sky, and its appearance to the end of all the earth.

gltv@Daniel:4:12 @ Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit plentiful, and food for all was in it. The animals of the field sought shade under it, and the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.

gltv@Daniel:4:13 @ I was looking in the visions of my head on my bed. And, behold, a watcher, even a holy one, came down from the heaven

gltv@Daniel:4:14 @ He cried with might and said this: Cut down the tree and cut off its branches. Shake off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the animals flee from under it, and the birds leave its branches.

gltv@Daniel:4:15 @ But leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a fetter of iron and bronze, in the grass of the field. And let it be wet with the dew of the heavens, and his portion be with the animals in the grass of the earth.

gltv@Daniel:4:16 @ Let his heart be changed from man's, and let the heart of an animal be given to him. And let seven times pass over him.

gltv@Daniel:4:17 @ This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the command by the word of the holy ones, so that the living may know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men and gives it to whomever He will. And He sets up over it the lowest of men.

gltv@Daniel:4:18 @ I, Nebuchadnezzar, have seen this dream. Now you, O Belteshazzar, declare its meaning, since all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to reveal the meaning to me. But you are able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in you.

gltv@Daniel:4:19 @ Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was stunned for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spoke and said, O Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its meaning trouble you. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream is to those who hate you, and its meaning is to your foes.

gltv@Daniel:4:20 @ The tree that you saw, which became great and strong, whose height reached to the heaven and its appearance to all the earth,

gltv@Daniel:4:21 @ and its leaves being beautiful, and its fruit plentiful, and food for all being in it, under which the animals of the field lived, and in its branches the birds of the sky had their home:

gltv@Daniel:4:22 @ It was you, O king, for you have become great and strong. For your greatness has grown and reaches to the heavens, and your rule is to the end of the earth.

gltv@Daniel:4:23 @ And as the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from the heavens, and saying, Cut the tree down, and destroy it. Yet leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the grass of the field. And let him be wet with the dew of the heavens, and his portion be with the animals of the field, until seven times pass over him.

gltv@Daniel:4:24 @ This is the meaning, O king, and this the decree of the Most High, which has come on my lord the king:

gltv@Daniel:4:25 @ And you shall be driven from men, and your dwelling shall be with the animals of the field. And you shall be fed with grass like oxen. And you shall be wet with dew of the heavens; and seven times shall pass over you until you know that the Most High is Ruler in the kingdom of men, and He gives it to whomever He desires.

gltv@Daniel:4:26 @ And in that they that commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots, Your kingdom shall be enduring to you after you have realized that Heaven rules.

gltv@Daniel:4:27 @ So, O king, let my advice be pleasing to you: Even break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by pitying the poor, whether there will be duration to your prosperity.

gltv@Daniel:4:28 @ All this came on the king, Nebuchadnezzar.

gltv@Daniel:4:29 @ At the end of twelve months, he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.

gltv@Daniel:4:30 @ The king spoke and said, is this not great Babylon that I have built for the house of the kingdom, by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?

gltv@Daniel:4:31 @ The word was still in the king's voice when a voice fell from the heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is declared: The kingdom has been taken from you!

gltv@Daniel:4:32 @ And you shall be driven from men, and your dwelling shall be with the animals of the field. You shall be fed with the grass like oxen, and seven times shall pass over you until you know that the Most High is Ruler in the kingdom of men, and that He gives it to whomever He desires.

gltv@Daniel:4:33 @ The same hour the thing was fulfilled on Nebuchadnezzar. And he was driven from men, and he ate the grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the heavens, until his hair had grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.

gltv@Daniel:4:34 @ And at the end of the days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to the heaven, and my understanding returned to me, and I blessed the Most High. And I praised and honored Him who lives forever, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and His rule from generation to generation.

gltv@Daniel:4:35 @ And all the inhabitants of the earth are counted as nothing. And He does according to His will among the army of Heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth. And no one is able to strike His hand or say to Him, What are You doing?

gltv@Daniel:4:36 @ At that time my reason returned to me, and the glory of my kingdom, my majesty, and my brightness returned to me. And my advisers and my nobles sought to me. And I was reestablished in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added to me.

gltv@Daniel:4:37 @ Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and honor the King of Heaven, for all His works are truth, and His ways are justice. And He is able to humble those who walk in pride.

gltv@Daniel:5:1 @ Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his nobles. And he drank wine before the thousand.

gltv@Daniel:5:2 @ When tasting the wine, Belshazzar commanded the golden and silver vessels brought, those his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple in Jerusalem, that the king and his nobles, his wives, and his concubines might drink with them.

gltv@Daniel:5:3 @ Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God in Jerusalem. And the king, his nobles, his wives, and his concubines drank with them.

gltv@Daniel:5:4 @ They drank wine and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, and of bronze, of iron, wood, and stone.

gltv@Daniel:5:5 @ At that moment fingers of a man's hand came out and wrote on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace across from the lampstand. And the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

gltv@Daniel:5:6 @ Then the king's color was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins shook, and his knees knocked one against the other.

gltv@Daniel:5:7 @ The king cried aloud to bring in the conjurers, the Chaldeans, and the star gazers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, Any man who can read this writing and reveal its meaning shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold around his neck. And he shall rule third in the kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:5:8 @ Then all the king's wise men came in. But they could not read the writing or make the meaning known to the king.

gltv@Daniel:5:9 @ Then king Belshazzar was greatly troubled, and his face was changing on him, and his nobles were perplexed.

gltv@Daniel:5:10 @ The queen came in to the banquet house because of the words of the king and his nobles. The queen spoke and said, O king, live forever, do not let your thoughts trouble you, and do not let your face be changed.

gltv@Daniel:5:11 @ There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. And in the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom was found in him, like the wisdom of the gods. Your father, king Nebuchadnezzar, your father the king, appointed him master of the horoscopists, conjurers, Chaldeans and fortunetellers,

gltv@Daniel:5:12 @ because an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, explaining of dreams, and revealing of hard sentences, and the unraveling of knots, were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let be called, and he will reveal the meaning.

gltv@Daniel:5:13 @ Then was thrust in before the king. The king spoke and said to Daniel, Are you that who is of the sons of the exiled of Judah, whom my father the king brought out of Judah?

gltv@Daniel:5:14 @ I have even heard of you, that the spirit of the gods is in you, and light, and excellent wisdom, and understanding are found in you.

gltv@Daniel:5:15 @ And now the wise men and the conjurers have been thrust in before me, so that they might read this writing and make the meaning known to me. But they were not able to declare the meaning of the thing.

gltv@Daniel:5:16 @ And I have heard of you, that you can interpret meanings, and unravel knots. Now if you can read the writing and reveal its meaning to me, you shall be clothed with purple and have a golden chain around your neck, and you will rule third in the kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:5:17 @ Then answered and said before the king, Let your gifts be to yourself, and give your rewards to another. Yet I will read the writing to the king, and make the meaning known to him.

gltv@Daniel:5:18 @ O king, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honor.

gltv@Daniel:5:19 @ And for the majesty that He gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. He killed whom he desired, and whom he desired he kept alive. And whom he would, he set up; and whom he desired, he put down.

gltv@Daniel:5:20 @ But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was put down from the throne of his kingdom, and they took his glory from him.

gltv@Daniel:5:21 @ And he was driven from the sons of men. And his heart was made like the animals, and his home was with the wild asses. They fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the heavens, until he knew that the Most High God is Ruler in the kingdom of men, and that He appoints over it whomever He desires.

gltv@Daniel:5:22 @ And you, his son, O Belshazzar, have not bowed your heart, though you knew all this.

gltv@Daniel:5:23 @ But you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of Heaven. And they have brought the vessels of His house before you. And you, and your nobles, your wives, and your concubines have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see, nor hear, and do not know. And you have not glorified the God in whose hand your life breath and all your ways is.

gltv@Daniel:5:24 @ Then the part of the hand was sent from Him, and this writing was written.

gltv@Daniel:5:25 @ And this is the writing that was written: A MINA, A MINA, A SHEKEL, AND HALF MINAS.

gltv@Daniel:5:26 @ This is the meaning of the thing: A MINA: God has numbered your kingdom and finished it.

gltv@Daniel:5:27 @ A SHEKEL: You are weighed in the balances and found lacking.

gltv@Daniel:5:28 @ HALF MINAS: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

gltv@Daniel:5:29 @ Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed with purple, and a necklace of gold around his neck. And they made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:5:30 @ In that night Belshazzar, the king of the Chaldeans, was killed.

gltv@Daniel:5:31 @ And Darius the Mede took the kingdom, being a son of sixty two years.

gltv@Daniel:6:1 @ It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, that they might be over the kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:6:2 @ And over them were three presidents (was one of them), so that these satraps might give account to them, and the king should have no loss.

gltv@Daniel:6:3 @ Then this was preferred above the presidents and satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him. And the king was planning to set him over all the kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:6:4 @ Then the presidents and satraps sought to find occasion against concerning the kingdom. But they could find no occasion or fault because he was trustworthy. And no error or fault was found in him.

gltv@Daniel:6:5 @ Then these men said, We shall not find any occasion against this unless we find it against him concerning the law of his God.

gltv@Daniel:6:6 @ Then these presidents and satraps gathered together to the king and said this to him, King Darius, live forever.

gltv@Daniel:6:7 @ All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the officials and the governors, have planned together to establish a royal law, and to make a strong ban, that whoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except from you, O king, he shall be thrown into the den of lions.

gltv@Daniel:6:8 @ Now, O king, establish the ban and sign the document, so that it may not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which does not pass away.

gltv@Daniel:6:9 @ All on account of this, king Darius signed the document and the ban.

gltv@Daniel:6:10 @ And when he had learned that the document was signed, went to his house. And his windows were open in his roof room toward Jerusalem. He knelt on his knees three times in the day, and prayed and praised before his God, as he did before.

gltv@Daniel:6:11 @ Then these men met together and found praying and seeking mercy before his God.

gltv@Daniel:6:12 @ Then they came near and spoke before the king concerning the king's ban, saying, Have you not signed a ban that every man who shall ask of any god or man within thirty days, except of you, O king, that he shall be thrown into the lions' den? The king answered and said, The thing is certain, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which does not pass away.

gltv@Daniel:6:13 @ Then they answered and said before the king, Daniel, who is of the exiled sons of Judah, has not set attention on you, O king, or the ban that you have signed, but he makes his prayer three times in the day.

gltv@Daniel:6:14 @ Then the king, when he heard the word, was very displeased with himself, and he set his heart on Daniel, to deliver him. And he labored until the going of the sun to deliver him.

gltv@Daniel:6:15 @ Then these men met before the king and said to the king, O king, know that the law of the Medes and Persians is that every ban or law which the king enacts may not be changed.

gltv@Daniel:6:16 @ And the king commanded. And they brought Daniel, and they threw him into the lions' den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, Your God whom you constantly serve will deliver you.

gltv@Daniel:6:17 @ And a stone was brought and laid on the mouth of the den. And the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his nobles, that the affair may not change concerning Daniel.

gltv@Daniel:6:18 @ Then the king went to his palace and spent the night fasting. and diversions were not brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.

gltv@Daniel:6:19 @ Then the king rose up in the dawn, in the daylight, and hurried to the lions' den.

gltv@Daniel:6:20 @ And when he came to the den, he cried with a grieved voice to Daniel. The king spoke and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, your God whom you always serve, is He able to deliver you from the lions?

gltv@Daniel:6:21 @ Then said to the king, O king, live forever.

gltv@Daniel:6:22 @ My God has sent His Angel, and He has shut the mouths of the lions. And they have not hurt me, because in His sight purity was found in me. And also before you, O king, I have done no harm.

gltv@Daniel:6:23 @ Then the king was exceedingly happy for him. And he commanded to bring up from the den. And was brought out of the den, and no harm was found on him, because he trusted in his God.

gltv@Daniel:6:24 @ And the king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel. And they threw them into the lions' den, them, their sons and their wives. And the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones before they reached to the bottom of the den.

gltv@Daniel:6:25 @ Then king Darius wrote to all the peoples, the nations, and the languages who were living in all the earth: Peace be multiplied to you.

gltv@Daniel:6:26 @ A decree was given from before me that in all the domain of my kingdom there shall be trembling and fear before the God of Daniel. For He is the living God and endures forever, and His kingdom is the one which shall not be destroyed. And His rule shall be to the end.

gltv@Daniel:6:27 @ He delivers and rescues, and He works signs and wonders in the heavens and in the earth, He who has delivered from the power of the lions.

gltv@Daniel:6:28 @ And this was made to prosper in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

gltv@Daniel:7:1 @ In the first year of Belshazzar, king of Babylon, saw a dream and visions of his head on his bed. Then he related the dream, giving the sum of the matters.

gltv@Daniel:7:2 @ spoke and said, In my vision by night I was looking. And, behold, the four winds of the heavens were stirring up the Great Sea.

gltv@Daniel:7:3 @ And four great beasts came up from the sea, different from one another.

gltv@Daniel:7:4 @ The first was like a lion and had eagle's wings. I watched until its wings were torn off. And it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.

gltv@Daniel:7:5 @ And, behold, another beast, a second, like a bear. And it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth. And they said this to it, Rise up, eat much flesh.

gltv@Daniel:7:6 @ After this I was looking, and, behold, another like a leopard, and to it were four wings of a bird on its side. And also to the beast were four heads. And rulership was given to it.

gltv@Daniel:7:7 @ And after this I was looking in the night visions. And, behold, the fourth beast was fearful and terrifying, and very strong! And to it were great iron teeth. It devoured, and crushed, and stamped what was left with its feet. And it was different from all the beasts before it; and it had ten horns.

gltv@Daniel:7:8 @ I was thinking about the horns. And behold! Another little horn came up among them, and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. And behold! In this horn were eyes like the eyes of the man, and a mouth speaking great things.

gltv@Daniel:7:9 @ I was looking until the thrones were thrown up, and the Ancient of Days sat, whose robe was white as snow and the hair of His head like pure wool. His throne was like flames of fire, its wheels like burning fire.

gltv@Daniel:7:10 @ A stream of fire went out and came out from before Him. A thousand thousands served Him, and a myriad myriads stood before Him. The court was set and the books were opened.

gltv@Daniel:7:11 @ Then I was looking because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke. I was looking until the beast was killed, and his body was destroyed and given to the burning flame.

gltv@Daniel:7:12 @ And the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away. Yet length of life was given them for a season and a time.

gltv@Daniel:7:13 @ I was looking in the night visions. And behold! One like the Son of Man came with the clouds of the heavens. And He came to the Ancient of Days. And they brought Him near before Him.

gltv@Daniel:7:14 @ And dominion was given to Him, and glory, and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

gltv@Daniel:7:15 @ I, Daniel, was distressed in my spirit amidst its sheath, and the visions of my head troubled me.

gltv@Daniel:7:16 @ And I came near one of those who stood by and asked him the truth of all this. And he told me and made me know the meaning of the things.

gltv@Daniel:7:17 @ These great beasts are four, four kings; they shall rise up out of the earth.

gltv@Daniel:7:18 @ But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.

gltv@Daniel:7:19 @ Then I wanted to know the truth of the fourth beast, which was different from all of them, very frightening, whose teeth were of iron and its nails bronze; who devoured and crushed, and trampled what was left with its feet,

gltv@Daniel:7:20 @ also of the ten horns that were on its head, and the other which came up, and before whom three fell, even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and its look was greater than his fellows.

gltv@Daniel:7:21 @ I was looking, and that horn made war with the saints and overcame them,

gltv@Daniel:7:22 @ until the Ancient of Days came. And judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.

gltv@Daniel:7:23 @ And He said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom on earth, which shall be different from all kingdoms, and shall devour all the earth, and shall trample it down and crush it.

gltv@Daniel:7:24 @ And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings; they shall rise, and another shall rise after them. And he shall be different from the first, and he shall humble three kings.

gltv@Daniel:7:25 @ And he shall speak words against the Most High, and he shall wear out the saints of the Most High. And he intends to change times and law. And they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and one half time.

gltv@Daniel:7:26 @ But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his rulership, to cut off and to destroy until the end.

gltv@Daniel:7:27 @ And the kingdom and rulership, and the greatness of the kingdom under all the heavens shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. And all kingdoms shall serve and obey Him.

gltv@Daniel:7:28 @ Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me much, and my face changed on me. But I kept the matter in my heart.

gltv@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar, a vision appeared to me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.

gltv@Daniel:8:2 @ And I looked in the vision, and it happened when I looked that I was at Shushan the palace, which is in the province of Elam. And in a vision I looked, and I was by the Ulai Canal.

gltv@Daniel:8:3 @ Then I lifted up my eyes and looked. And behold! A ram was standing before the canal, having two horns. And the two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher one came up last.

gltv@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram pushing westward and northward and southward, so that no beasts could stand before him, and none could deliver out of his hand. But he did according to his will and became great.

gltv@Daniel:8:5 @ And I was considering. And behold! A male of the goats came from the west, over the face of all the earth and did not touch the ground. And the he goat had an outstanding horn between his eyes.

gltv@Daniel:8:6 @ And he came to the ram with two horns which I had seen standing before the canal. And he ran to it in the fury of his power.

gltv@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him touched beside the ram. And he was moved with anger against him. And he struck the ram and shattered his two horns. And there was no power in the ram to stand before him. But he threw him down to the ground and trampled him. And no one could deliver the ram from his hand.

gltv@Daniel:8:8 @ Then the he goat became very great. And when he was mighty, the great horn was broken. And in its place came up four outstanding ones toward the four winds of the heavens.

gltv@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of one of them came a little horn which became very great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the bountiful land.

gltv@Daniel:8:10 @ And it became great, even to the host of the heavens. And it caused some of the host and of the stars to fall to the ground, and it trampled them.

gltv@Daniel:8:11 @ Yea, he magnified himself even to the leader of the host. And the regular sacrifice was taken away by him, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

gltv@Daniel:8:12 @ And a host was given with the regular sacrifice because of transgression. And it threw the truth down to the ground, and it worked and prospered.

gltv@Daniel:8:13 @ Then I heard a certain holy one speaking, and another holy one said to that one who spoke, Until when is the vision, the regular sacrifice and the desolating transgression, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled?

gltv@Daniel:8:14 @ And he said to me, For two thousand, three hundred evenings and mornings, then the sanctuary will be vindicated.

gltv@Daniel:8:15 @ And it happened when I, Daniel, had seen the vision, then I sought the meaning. And, behold, the form of a man stood before me.

gltv@Daniel:8:16 @ And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, and he called and said, Gabriel, make this one understand the vision.

gltv@Daniel:8:17 @ And he came beside my place. And when he came, I feared and fell on my face. But he said to me, O son of man, understand, for the vision is for the time of the end.

gltv@Daniel:8:18 @ And while he was speaking with me, I was stunned and on my face toward the ground. But he touched me and made me stand.

gltv@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, Behold, I will make you know what shall happen in the last end of the indignation. For it is for the time appointed for the end.

gltv@Daniel:8:20 @ The ram which you saw with two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.

gltv@Daniel:8:21 @ And the shaggy goat is the king of Greece. And the great horn between his eyes is the first king.

gltv@Daniel:8:22 @ And as for that which was broken, and four stood up in its place, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in its power.

gltv@Daniel:8:23 @ And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have come to the full, a king, strong of face and skilled at intrigues, shall stand up.

gltv@Daniel:8:24 @ And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power. And he shall destroy wondrously, and he shall prosper, and work, and destroy the mighty, and the holy people.

gltv@Daniel:8:25 @ And also through his skill he will make deceit succeed in his land. And he will lift himself up in his heart, and be at ease; he shall destroy many. He shall also stand up against the Ruler of rulers, but he shall be broken without a hand.

gltv@Daniel:8:26 @ And the morning and evening vision that was told is true. But you shall shut up the vision, for it shall be for many days.

gltv@Daniel:8:27 @ And I, Daniel, was faint. And I was sick for days. Afterwards, I got up and did the king's business. And I was amazed at the vision. But there was no understanding.

gltv@Daniel:9:1 @ In the first year of Darius, the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans,

gltv@Daniel:9:2 @ in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood the number of the years by books, which came as the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah the prophet, that He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

gltv@Daniel:9:3 @ And I set my face toward the Lord God, to seek by prayer and holy desires, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.

gltv@Daniel:9:4 @ And I prayed to Jehovah my God. and made my confession, saying, O Lord, the great and awesome God, keeping the covenant and mercy of those who love Him, and to those who keep His commandments,

gltv@Daniel:9:5 @ we have sinned and have committed iniquity and have done evilly, and we have rebelled, even by departing from Your commandments and from Your judgments.

gltv@Daniel:9:6 @ And we have not listened to Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings, our rulers, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

gltv@Daniel:9:7 @ O Lord, righteousness belongs to You, but to us the shame of our faces, as it is this day to the men of Judah, and to the dwellers of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near and who are afar through all the lands where You have scattered them for their unfaithfulness which they have done against You.

gltv@Daniel:9:8 @ O Lord, shame of face belongs to us, to our kings, to our rulers and to our fathers, because we have sinned against You.

gltv@Daniel:9:9 @ To the Lord our God belong mercies and pardons, for we have rebelled against Him.

gltv@Daniel:9:10 @ We have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in His laws which he set before us by His servants the prophets.

gltv@Daniel:9:11 @ Yea, all Israel has transgressed Your law and turned aside that they might not obey Your voice. For this reason the curse has poured out on us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.

gltv@Daniel:9:12 @ And He has confirmed His words which He spoke against us, and against our judges who judge us, by bringing on us a great evil. For under the whole heavens it has not been done as it has been done to Jerusalem.

gltv@Daniel:9:13 @ As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us. Yet we did not make our prayer before Jehovah our God that we might turn from our perversities and understand Your truth.

gltv@Daniel:9:14 @ And Jehovah has looked on the evil and has made it come on us. For Jehovah our God is righteous in all His works which He does. For we did not obey His voice.

gltv@Daniel:9:15 @ And now, O Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand and made for Yourself a name, as it is this day; we have sinned; we have done evilly.

gltv@Daniel:9:16 @ O Lord, I pray to You, according to all Your righteousness, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain. For because of our sins and of our fathers' iniquities, Jerusalem and Your people have become a reproach to all those around us.

gltv@Daniel:9:17 @ And now, hear, O our God, the prayer of Your servant and his holy desires, and cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary that is desolate, for the sake of the Lord.

gltv@Daniel:9:18 @ O my God, bow down Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our ruins and the city which is called by Your name. For we do not present our prayers before You on account of our righteousnesses, but because of Your great mercies.

gltv@Daniel:9:19 @ O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay, for Your own sake, O my God. For Your name is called on Your city and on Your people.

gltv@Daniel:9:20 @ And while I was speaking and praying and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and making my cry fall before Jehovah my God for the holy mountain of my God.

gltv@Daniel:9:21 @ And while I was setting my prayer in order, then the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, touched me in my severe exhaustion about the time of the evening sacrifice.

gltv@Daniel:9:22 @ And he enlightened me and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I have now come out to give you skill in understanding.

gltv@Daniel:9:23 @ At the beginning of your prayers the word came forth, and I have come to explain it. For you are greatly beloved. Then understand the matter and pay attention to the vision:

gltv@Daniel:9:24 @ Seventy weeks are decreed as to your people, and as to your holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make atonement for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy.

gltv@Daniel:9:25 @ Know, then, and understand that from the going out of a word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem, to Messiah the Prince, shall be seven weeks and sixty two weeks. The street shall be built again, and the wall, even in times of affliction.

gltv@Daniel:9:26 @ And after sixty two weeks, Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself. And the people of a coming prince shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end shall be with the flood, and ruins are determined, and war shall be until the end.

gltv@Daniel:9:27 @ And he shall confirm a covenant with the many for one week. And in the middle of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease. And on a wing of the altar will be abominations that desolate, even until the end. And that which was decreed shall pour out on the desolator.

gltv@Daniel:10:1 @ In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a thing was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar. And the thing was true, and a great conflict. And he understood the thing and had understanding of the vision.

gltv@Daniel:10:2 @ In those days, I, Daniel, was mourning three weeks of days.

gltv@Daniel:10:3 @ I ate no food for delight, and no flesh or wine came into my mouth. I did not anoint myself at all until three weeks of days were fulfilled.

gltv@Daniel:10:4 @ And in the twenty fourth day of the first month, as I was by the hand of the great river, which is Tigris,

gltv@Daniel:10:5 @ then I lifted up my eyes and looked: And behold! A certain man was clothed in linen, whose loins were wrapped in fine gold from Uphaz.

gltv@Daniel:10:6 @ His body was also like the beryl, and his face looked like lightning. And his eyes were like torches of fire; and his arms and his feet in color like polished bronze; and the sound of his words were as the noise of a multitude.

gltv@Daniel:10:7 @ And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision. For the men who were with me did not see the vision. But a great trembling fell on them so that they fled to hide themselves.

gltv@Daniel:10:8 @ Then I was left alone, and I saw his great vision, and there remained no strength in me. For my glory was turned within me into corruption, and I kept no strength.

gltv@Daniel:10:9 @ Yet I heard the sound of his words. And when I heard the sound of his words, then I was on my face, stunned, and my face was toward the ground.

gltv@Daniel:10:10 @ And, behold, a hand touched me and set me shaking on my knees and the palms of my hands.

gltv@Daniel:10:11 @ And he said to me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you and stand up. For I am now sent to you. And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood, trembling.

gltv@Daniel:10:12 @ And he said to me, Do not fear, Daniel. For from the first day that you set your heart to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. And I have come because of your words.

gltv@Daniel:10:13 @ But the king of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty one days. But, lo, Michael, one of the first rulers, came to help me. And I stayed there with the kings of Persia.

gltv@Daniel:10:14 @ Now I have come to make you understand what shall happen to your people in the latter days. For the vision is yet for many days.

gltv@Daniel:10:15 @ And when he had spoken such words to me, I set my face to the ground, and I became speechless.

gltv@Daniel:10:16 @ And, behold, one in form as the sons of men touched my lips. And I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who stood before me, O lord, my pangs have come over me because of the vision, and I have no strength left.

gltv@Daniel:10:17 @ For how can the servant of my lord speak this with this my lord? For as for me, there is no power left in me; yea, there is no breath left in me.

gltv@Daniel:10:18 @ And again one in form as a man touched me and made me strong.

gltv@Daniel:10:19 @ And he said, O man greatly beloved, do not fear. Peace to you. Be strong. Yea, be strong! And when he had spoken to me I was made strong. And I said, Speak, my lord, for you have made me strong.

gltv@Daniel:10:20 @ And he said, Do you know why I have come to you? And now I will return to fight with the ruler of Persia. And when I have gone out, then, lo, the ruler of Greece shall come.

gltv@Daniel:10:21 @ But I will tell you what is written in the Scripture of Truth. And no one makes himself strong with Me in these things except Michael your ruler.

gltv@Daniel:11:1 @ And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, I was standing for a supporter and for a fortress for him.

gltv@Daniel:11:2 @ And now I will declare the truth to you: Behold! Three kings shall stand up in Persia; and the fourth shall be rich in all greater riches. And when he is powerful through his riches, he shall stir up all against the kingdom of Greece.

gltv@Daniel:11:3 @ And a mighty king shall stand up and shall rule with great authority and do according to his will.

gltv@Daniel:11:4 @ And when he stands up his kingdom shall be broken and shall be divided to the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his authority with which he ruled. For his kingdom shall be pulled up and given to others besides these.

gltv@Daniel:11:5 @ And the king of the south shall be strong. And one of his rulers, even he will be strong on him, and he will rule. His rule shall be a great rule.

gltv@Daniel:11:6 @ And at the end of the years they shall join together, and the king of the south's daughter shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement. But she shall not keep the power of the arm. And he will not stand, nor his arm. But she and those who brought her shall be given up, also her begetter and her supporter in these times.

gltv@Daniel:11:7 @ But the shoots of her roots will stand in his place, and he shall come to the army and will enter into the fortress of the king of the north. And he will act against them and will show strength.

gltv@Daniel:11:8 @ And he will also bring their gods with their casted images, with silver and gold vessels of their possessions, into exile to Egypt. And for years he will stand away from the king of the north.

gltv@Daniel:11:9 @ And the king of the south will come into his kingdom and will return to his own land.

gltv@Daniel:11:10 @ But his sons shall be stirred up and shall gather a multitude of great forces. And one certainly shall come and overflow and pass through. And he will return to his fortress and be stirred up.

gltv@Daniel:11:11 @ And the king of the south will be bitter and will go out and fight with him, with the king of the north. And he shall raise a great multitude, but the multitude shall be given into his hand.

gltv@Daniel:11:12 @ And having carried away the host, his heart will be lifted up. And he will cause myriads to fall, but he shall not be strong.

gltv@Daniel:11:13 @ For the king of the north shall return and raise a greater host than the former. And at the end of times, years, certainly he shall come with a great army and with much equipment.

gltv@Daniel:11:14 @ And in those times many shall stand up against the king of the south. And the sons of the violent ones of your people shall rise up to establish the vision, but they shall stumble.

gltv@Daniel:11:15 @ And the king of the north shall come and pour out a siege mound and seize a fortified city. And the arms of the south shall not stand, nor his choice people, for there will be no firmness to stand.

gltv@Daniel:11:16 @ But he who comes against him will do as he desires, and none shall stand before him. And he shall stand in the glorious land, and destruction shall be in his hand.

gltv@Daniel:11:17 @ And he shall set his face to go in with the might of all his kingdom, and upright ones with him; so he shall do. And he shall give the daughter of women to him, to destroy it. But she shall not stand, nor be for him.

gltv@Daniel:11:18 @ And he shall turn his face to the coastlands and shall capture many. But a ruler shall make cease his reproach for him, but his reproach shall return to him.

gltv@Daniel:11:19 @ And he shall turn his face toward the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble and fall and shall not be found.

gltv@Daniel:11:20 @ And one who sends a tax exacter shall stand in his place, for the glory of the kingdom. But within a few days he will be broken, but not in anger and not in battle.

gltv@Daniel:11:21 @ And a despised one shall stand up on his place, and they shall not give to him the honor of the king. But he shall come in while at ease and take the kingdom by intrigues.

gltv@Daniel:11:22 @ And the forces of the overflow shall be swept from before his face, and they will be broken, and also the ruler of a covenant.

gltv@Daniel:11:23 @ And after they join themselves to him, he will practice deceit; for he shall come and shall be strong with a few people.

gltv@Daniel:11:24 @ He will go in safely, even into the rich places of the province. And he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers. He shall plunder and spoil and scatter goods among them. And he shall devise his plots against the strongholds, even for a time.

gltv@Daniel:11:25 @ And he will stir up his power and his heart against the king of the south with a great army. And the king of the south will be stirred up to battle with a great and very mighty army. But he shall not stand, for they will devise plots against him.

gltv@Daniel:11:26 @ Yea, those who eat his food shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow. And many will fall down slain.

gltv@Daniel:11:27 @ And both of them, the kings, shall have in their hearts to do evil, and they will speak lies at one table. But it will not prosper, for the end still shall be at the appointed time.

gltv@Daniel:11:28 @ And he will return to his land with great wealth. And his heart shall be against the holy covenant. And he will act, and he shall return to his land.

gltv@Daniel:11:29 @ At the appointed time he will return and come against the south. But it will not be as the former or as the latter.

gltv@Daniel:11:30 @ For the Kittim ships will come against him. And he will be grieved and turn back and be furious against the holy covenant. And he will act, and he will return and heed the forsakers of the holy covenant.

gltv@Daniel:11:31 @ And forces will stand away from him, and they will profane the sanctuary, the fortress. And they shall remove the regular sacrifice, and they will place the abomination that desolates.

gltv@Daniel:11:32 @ And he will defile by flatteries those who do evil against the covenant. But the people who know their God will be strong and will work.

gltv@Daniel:11:33 @ And those who understand among the people will instruct many, yet they will stumble by the sword and by flame, by exile and spoil for days.

gltv@Daniel:11:34 @ And when they shall stumble, they will be helped with a little help. But many will join them with hypocrisy.

gltv@Daniel:11:35 @ And many of those who understand shall stumble, to refine and to purge them, and to make white to the time of the end. For it is yet for the appointed time.

gltv@Daniel:11:36 @ And the king shall do according to his will. And he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god; he shall even speak marvelous things against the God of gods and shall prosper until the fury is fulfilled. For that which is decreed shall be done.

gltv@Daniel:11:37 @ He shall not regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women; yea, he will not come to any god. For he shall magnify himself above all.

gltv@Daniel:11:38 @ But in his place he shall honor the god of forces, and he shall honor a god whom his fathers did not know, with gold and silver and with precious stones, and desirable things.

gltv@Daniel:11:39 @ And he shall act in the strongholds of the fortresses with a foreign god, whom he shall acknowledge. He shall multiply in glory, and he shall cause them to rule over many and shall divide the land for a price.

gltv@Daniel:11:40 @ And at the end time, the king of the south will engage in butting with him. And the king of the north shall come against him like a tempest, with chariots and with horsemen and with many ships. And he shall go into the lands and shall overflow and pass over.

gltv@Daniel:11:41 @ And he shall enter into the glorious land, and many will be stumbled. But these shall escape out of his hand: Edom and Moab, and the chief of the sons of Ammon.

gltv@Daniel:11:42 @ And his hand will stretch out against the lands, and the land of Egypt shall not escape.

gltv@Daniel:11:43 @ But he will rule over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all Egypt's desirable things. And the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.

gltv@Daniel:11:44 @ But news shall trouble him from the east and from the north. And he will go out with great fury to destroy and to devote many to destruction.

gltv@Daniel:11:45 @ And he shall plant his palace tents between the seas, in the glorious holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, and there is not a helper for him.

gltv@Daniel:12:1 @ And at that time, Michael shall stand up, the great ruler who stands for the sons of your people. And there shall be a time of distress, such as has not been from the existence of a nation until that time. And at that time, your people shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the Book.

gltv@Daniel:12:2 @ And many of those sleeping in the earth's dust shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and to everlasting abhorrence.

gltv@Daniel:12:3 @ And those who are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and those turning many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.

gltv@Daniel:12:4 @ But you, O Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, to the end time. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

gltv@Daniel:12:5 @ And I, Daniel, looked. And, behold! Another two stood there, the one on this side, and one on that side of the river's edge.

gltv@Daniel:12:6 @ And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was on the waters of the river, Until when is the end of the wonders?

gltv@Daniel:12:7 @ And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was on the waters of the river, when he held up his right and his left hand to the heavens and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time, times, and a half. And when they have made an end of scattering the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

gltv@Daniel:12:8 @ And I heard, but I did not understand. And I said, O my lord, what shall be the end of these things?

gltv@Daniel:12:9 @ And He said, Go, Daniel! For the words are closed up and sealed until the end time.

gltv@Daniel:12:10 @ Many shall be purified and made white and tested. But the wicked shall do wickedly. And not one of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.
