updv@Hosea:1:1 @ The word of Yahweh that came to Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

updv@Hosea:1:2 @ When Yahweh spoke at the first by Hosea, Yahweh said to Hosea, Go, take to yourself a wife of prostitution and children of prostitution; for the land commits great prostitution, [departing] from Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:1:3 @ So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she became pregnant, and bore him a son.

updv@Hosea:1:4 @ And Yahweh said to him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.

updv@Hosea:1:5 @ And it will come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.

updv@Hosea:1:6 @ And she became pregnant again, and gave birth to a daughter. And [Yahweh] said to him, Call her name Lo-ruhamah; for I will no more have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should in any wise pardon them.

updv@Hosea:1:7 @ But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and will save them by Yahweh their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.

updv@Hosea:1:8 @ Now when she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she became pregnant, and gave birth to a son.

updv@Hosea:1:9 @ And [Yahweh] said, Call his name Lo-ammi; for you(note:){+}(:note) are not my people, and I will not be your{+} [God].

updv@Hosea:1:10 @ Yet the number of the sons of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, which can't be measured nor numbered; and it will come to pass that, in the place where it was said to them, You(note:){+}(:note) are not my people, it will be said to them, [You{+} are] the sons of the living God.

updv@Hosea:1:11 @ And the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint themselves one head, and will go up from the land; for great will be the day of Jezreel.

updv@Hosea:2:1 @ Say(note:){+}(:note) to your{+} brothers, Ammi; and to your{+} sisters, Ruhamah.

updv@Hosea:2:2 @ Contend with your(note:){+}(:note) mother, contend; for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;

updv@Hosea:2:3 @ or else I will strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst.

updv@Hosea:2:4 @ Yes, on her sons I will have no mercy; for they are sons of prostitution;

updv@Hosea:2:5 @ for their mother has prostituted; she who became pregnant with them has done shamefully; for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.

updv@Hosea:2:6 @ Therefore, look, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she will not find her paths.

updv@Hosea:2:7 @ And she will follow after her lovers, but she will not overtake them; and she will seek them, but will not find them: then will she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then it was better with me than now.

updv@Hosea:2:8 @ For she did not know that I gave her the grain, and the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.

updv@Hosea:2:9 @ Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my new wine in its season, and will pluck away my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.

updv@Hosea:2:10 @ And now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none will deliver her out of my hand.

updv@Hosea:2:11 @ I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feasts, her new moons, and her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.

updv@Hosea:2:12 @ And I will lay waste her vines and her fig-trees, of which she has said, These are my wages that my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field will eat them.

updv@Hosea:2:13 @ And I will visit on her the days of the Baalim, to which she burned incense, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, says Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:2:14 @ Therefore, look, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably to her.

updv@Hosea:2:15 @ And I will give her her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will answer there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

updv@Hosea:2:16 @ And it will be at that day, says Yahweh, that you will call: Ishi; and will call me no more: Baali.

updv@Hosea:2:17 @ For I will take away the names of the Baalim out of her mouth, and they will no more be mentioned by their name.

updv@Hosea:2:18 @ And in that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the birds of the heavens, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the land, and will make them to lie down safely.

updv@Hosea:2:19 @ And I will betroth you to me forever; yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, and in justice, and in loving-kindness, and in mercies.

updv@Hosea:2:20 @ I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you will know Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:2:21 @ And it will come to pass in that day, I will answer, says Yahweh, I will answer the heavens, and they will answer the earth;

updv@Hosea:2:22 @ and the earth will answer the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will answer Jezreel.

updv@Hosea:2:23 @ And I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people; and they will say, [You are] my God.

updv@Hosea:3:1 @ And Yahweh said to me, Go again, love a woman loved by a companion, but [is] an adulteress, even as Yahweh loves the sons of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins.

updv@Hosea:3:2 @ So I bought her to me for fifteen [pieces] of silver, and a homer of barley, and a half-homer of barley;

updv@Hosea:3:3 @ and I said to her, You will remain with me many days; you will not prostitute; and you will not have any sex with any man--not even me.

updv@Hosea:3:4 @ For the sons of Israel will remain many days without king, and without prince, and without sacrifice, and without pillar, and without ephod or talismans:

updv@Hosea:3:5 @ afterward the sons of Israel will return, and seek Yahweh their God, and David their king, and will come with fear to Yahweh and to his goodness in the latter days.

updv@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of Yahweh, you(note:){+}(:note) sons of Israel; for Yahweh has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor goodness, nor knowledge of God in the land.

updv@Hosea:4:2 @ Swearing, lying, killing, stealing, and committing adultery are rampant; and blood is everywhere.

updv@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore the land will mourn, and everyone who dwells in it will languish, with the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens; yes, the fish of the sea also will be taken away.

updv@Hosea:4:4 @ Yet let no man strive, neither let any man reprove; for your people are as those who strive with the priest.

updv@Hosea:4:5 @ And you will stumble in the day, and the prophet also will stumble with you in the night; and I will destroy your mother.

updv@Hosea:4:6 @ My people are destroyed for lack of the knowledge [of God]: because you have rejected the knowledge [of God], I will also reject you, that you will be no priest to me: seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your sons.

updv@Hosea:4:7 @ As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me: I will change their glory into shame.

updv@Hosea:4:8 @ They feed on the sin of my people, and set their heart on their iniquity.

updv@Hosea:4:9 @ And it will be, like people, like priest; and I will punish them for their ways, and will requite them their doings.

updv@Hosea:4:10 @ And they will eat, and not have enough; they will cause prostitution, and will not increase; because they have left off taking heed to Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:4:11 @ Prostitution and wine and new wine take away the understanding.

updv@Hosea:4:12 @ My people ask counsel at their stock, and their staff declares to them; for the spirit of prostitution has caused them to err, and they have prostituted, [departing] from under their God.

updv@Hosea:4:13 @ They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains, and burn incense on the hills, under oaks and poplars and terebinths, because their shadow is good: therefore your(note:){+}(:note) daughters commit prostitution, and your{+} brides commit adultery.

updv@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not punish your(note:){+}(:note) daughters when they commit prostitution, nor your{+} brides when they commit adultery; for [the men] themselves go apart with prostitutes, and they sacrifice with prostitutes; and the people that does not understand will be overthrown.

updv@Hosea:4:15 @ Though you, Israel, are prostituting, yet don't let Judah offend; and don't come(note:){+}(:note) to Gilgal, neither go{+} up to Beth-aven, nor swear, As Yahweh lives.

updv@Hosea:4:16 @ For Israel has behaved himself stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer: now Yahweh will feed them as a lamb in a large place.

updv@Hosea:4:17 @ Ephraim is joined to idols; let him alone.

updv@Hosea:4:18 @ Their drink has become sour; they prostitute continually; her rulers dearly love shame.

updv@Hosea:4:19 @ The wind has wrapped her up in its wings; and they will be put to shame because of their altars.

updv@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear this, O you(note:){+}(:note) priests, and listen, O house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king; for to you{+} pertains the judgment; for you{+} have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.

updv@Hosea:5:2 @ And the revolters have gone deep in making slaughter; but I am a rebuker of them all.

updv@Hosea:5:3 @ I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now, O Ephraim, you have prostituted, Israel is defiled.

updv@Hosea:5:4 @ Their doings will not allow them to turn to their God; for the spirit of prostitution is inside them, and they don't know Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:5:5 @ And the pride of Israel testifies to his face: therefore Israel and Ephraim will stumble in their iniquity; Judah also will stumble with them.

updv@Hosea:5:6 @ They will go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Yahweh; but they will not find him: he has withdrawn himself from them.

updv@Hosea:5:7 @ They have betrayed Yahweh; for they have borne strange sons: now will the new moon devour them with their fields.

updv@Hosea:5:8 @ Blow(note:){+}(:note) the cornet in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah: sound an alarm at Beth-aven; behind you, O Benjamin.

updv@Hosea:5:9 @ Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel I have made known that which will surely be.

updv@Hosea:5:10 @ The princes of Judah are like those who remove the landmark: I will pour out my wrath on them like water.

updv@Hosea:5:11 @ Ephraim is oppressed, he is crushed in judgment; because he was determined to walk after crap.

updv@Hosea:5:12 @ Therefore I am to Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.

updv@Hosea:5:13 @ When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah [saw] his wound, then Ephraim went to Assyria, and sent to the great king: but he is not able to heal you(note:){+}(:note), neither will he cure you{+} of your{+} wound.

updv@Hosea:5:14 @ For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there will be none to deliver.

updv@Hosea:5:15 @ I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly.

updv@Hosea:6:1 @ Come, and let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn, and he will heal us; he has struck, and he will bind us up.

updv@Hosea:6:2 @ After two days he will revive us: on the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.

updv@Hosea:6:3 @ And let us know, let us follow on to know Yahweh: his going forth is sure as the morning; and he will come to us as the rain, as the latter rain that waters the earth.

updv@Hosea:6:4 @ O Ephraim, what shall I do to you? O Judah, what shall I do to you? For your(note:){+}(:note) goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that goes early away.

updv@Hosea:6:5 @ Therefore I have hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and my judgment goes forth as the light.

updv@Hosea:6:6 @ For I desire goodness, and not sacrifice; and knowledge of God more than burnt-offerings.

updv@Hosea:6:7 @ But they like man have transgressed the covenant: there they have betrayed me.

updv@Hosea:6:8 @ Gilead is a city of those who work iniquity; it is stained with blood.

updv@Hosea:6:9 @ And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way toward Shechem; yes, they have committed lewdness.

updv@Hosea:6:10 @ In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing: there prostitution is [found] in Ephraim, Israel is defiled.

updv@Hosea:6:11 @ Also, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I bring back the captivity of my people.

updv@Hosea:7:1 @ When I would heal Israel, then is the iniquity of Ephraim uncovered, and the wickedness of Samaria; for they commit falsehood, and the thief enters in, and the troop of robbers ravages outside.

updv@Hosea:7:2 @ And they don't consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.

updv@Hosea:7:3 @ They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.

updv@Hosea:7:4 @ They are all adulterers; they are as an oven heated by the baker; he ceases to stir [the fire], from the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.

updv@Hosea:7:5 @ On the day of our king the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine; he stretched out his hand with scoffers.

updv@Hosea:7:6 @ For they have brought their heart into their ambush, as into an oven: their baker sleeps all the night; in the morning it burns as a flaming fire.

updv@Hosea:7:7 @ They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings have fallen: there is none among them who calls to me.

updv@Hosea:7:8 @ Ephraim, he mixes himself among the peoples; Ephraim is a cake not turned.

updv@Hosea:7:9 @ Strangers have devoured his strength, and he does not know [it]: yes, gray hairs are here and there on him, and he does not know [it].

updv@Hosea:7:10 @ And the pride of Israel testifies to his face: yet they have not returned to Yahweh their God, nor sought him, for all this.

updv@Hosea:7:11 @ And Ephraim is like a silly dove, without understanding: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.

updv@Hosea:7:12 @ When they will go, I will spread my net on them; I will bring them down as the birds of the heavens; I will chastise them, as their congregation has heard.

updv@Hosea:7:13 @ Woe to them! For they have wandered from me; destruction to them! For they have trespassed against me: though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me.

updv@Hosea:7:14 @ And they have not cried to me with their heart, but they howl on their beds: they gash themselves for grain and new wine; they rebel against me.

updv@Hosea:7:15 @ Though I have taught and strengthened their arms, yet they devise mischief against me.

updv@Hosea:7:16 @ They return, but not upwards; they are like a deceitful bow; their princes will fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this will be their derision in the land of Egypt.

updv@Hosea:8:1 @ [Set] the trumpet to your mouth. As an eagle [he comes] against the house of Yahweh, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.

updv@Hosea:8:2 @ They will cry to me, My God, we Israel know you.

updv@Hosea:8:3 @ Israel has cast off that which is good: the enemy will pursue him.

updv@Hosea:8:4 @ They have set up kings, but not by me; they have made princes, and I did not know it: of their silver and their gold they have made for themselves idols, that they may be cut off.

updv@Hosea:8:5 @ He has cast off your calf, O Samaria; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be before they attain to innocence?

updv@Hosea:8:6 @ For from Israel is even this; the workman made it, and it is not God; yes, the calf of Samaria will be broken in pieces.

updv@Hosea:8:7 @ For they sow the wind, and they will reap the whirlwind: he has no standing grain; the blade will yield no meal; if it does yield, strangers will swallow it up.

updv@Hosea:8:8 @ Israel is swallowed up: now they are among the nations as a vessel in which none delights.

updv@Hosea:8:9 @ For they have gone up to Assyria, [like] a wild donkey alone by himself: Ephraim has hired lovers.

updv@Hosea:8:10 @ Yes, though they hire among the nations, now I will gather them; and they begin to be diminished by reason of the burden of the king of princes.

updv@Hosea:8:11 @ Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning, altars have been to him for sinning.

updv@Hosea:8:12 @ I wrote for him the ten thousand things of my law; but they are counted as a strange thing.

updv@Hosea:8:13 @ As for the sacrifices of my offerings, they sacrifice flesh and eat it; but Yahweh does not accept them: now he will remember their iniquity, and visit their sins; they will return to Egypt.

updv@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and built palaces; and Judah has multiplied fortified cities: but I will send a fire on their cities, and it will devour their castles.

updv@Hosea:9:1 @ Don't rejoice, O Israel, for joy, like the peoples; for you have prostituted [away] from your God; you have loved hire on every grain-floor.

updv@Hosea:9:2 @ The threshing-floor and the wine press will not feed them, and the new wine will fail her.

updv@Hosea:9:3 @ They will not dwell in Yahweh's land; but Ephraim will return to Egypt, and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.

updv@Hosea:9:4 @ They will not pour out wine-offerings to Yahweh, neither will they be pleasing to him: their sacrifices will be to them as the bread of mourners; all who eat of it will be polluted; for their bread will be for their appetite; it will not come into the house of Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:9:5 @ What will you(note:){+}(:note) do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of Yahweh?

updv@Hosea:9:6 @ For, look, they have gone away from destruction; [yet] Egypt will gather them up, Memphis will bury them; their pleasant things of silver, nettles will possess them; thorns will be in their tents.

updv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of visitation have come, the days of recompense have come; Israel will know it: the prophet is a fool, the man who has the spirit is insane, for the abundance of your iniquity, and because the enmity is great.

updv@Hosea:9:8 @ Ephraim [was] a watchman with my God: as for the prophet, a fowler's snare is in all his ways, [and] enmity in the house of his God.

updv@Hosea:9:9 @ They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.

updv@Hosea:9:10 @ I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your(note:){+}(:note) fathers as the first-ripe in the fig-tree at its first season: but they came to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing, and became detestable things like that which they loved.

updv@Hosea:9:11 @ As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird: there will be no birth, and no pregnancy, and no conception.

updv@Hosea:9:12 @ Though they bring up their sons, yet I will bereave them, so that man will not be left: yes, woe also to them when I depart from them!

updv@Hosea:9:13 @ I saw Ephraim as a grove of palm trees planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim will bring out his sons to the slayer.

updv@Hosea:9:14 @ Give them, O Yahweh--what will you give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

updv@Hosea:9:15 @ All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them: because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of my house; I will love them no more; all their princes are revolters.

updv@Hosea:9:16 @ Ephraim is struck, their root is dried up, they will bear no fruit: yes, though they bring forth, yet I will slay the beloved fruit of their womb.

updv@Hosea:9:17 @ My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.

updv@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel is a luxuriant vine, that puts forth his fruit: according to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars; according to the goodness of their land they have made goodly pillars.

updv@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is divided; now they will be found guilty: he will strike their altars, he will destroy their pillars.

updv@Hosea:10:3 @ Surely now they will say, We have no king; for we don't fear Yahweh; and the king, what can he do for us?

updv@Hosea:10:4 @ They speak [vain] words, swearing falsely in making covenants: therefore judgment springs up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.

updv@Hosea:10:5 @ The neighbor of Samaria will be in terror for the calves of Beth-aven; for its people will mourn over it, and its priests who rejoiced over it, for its glory, because it has departed from it.

updv@Hosea:10:6 @ It also will be carried to Assyria for a present to the great king: Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.

updv@Hosea:10:7 @ Samaria is cut off, her king as a twig on the water.

updv@Hosea:10:8 @ The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle will come up on their altars; and they will say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.

updv@Hosea:10:9 @ O Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah: there they stood; the battle against the sons of iniquity does not overtake them in Gibeah.

updv@Hosea:10:10 @ When it is my desire, I will chastise them; and the peoples will be gathered against them, when they are bound to their two furrows.

updv@Hosea:10:11 @ And Ephraim is a heifer that is taught, that loves to tread out [the grain]; but I have passed by her fair neck: I will set a rider on Ephraim; Judah will plow, Jacob will break his clods.

updv@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness; break up your(note:){+}(:note) fallow ground; for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you{+}.

updv@Hosea:10:13 @ You(note:){+}(:note) have plowed wickedness, you{+} have reaped iniquity; you{+} have eaten the fruit of lies; for you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.

updv@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore will a tumult arise among your people, and all your fortresses will be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces with her sons.

updv@Hosea:10:15 @ So Beth-el will do to you(note:){+}(:note) because of your{+} great wickedness: at daybreak the king of Israel will be completely cut off.

updv@Hosea:11:1 @ When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and I called my son out of Egypt.

updv@Hosea:11:2 @ The more [the prophets] called them, the more they went from them: they sacrificed to the Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.

updv@Hosea:11:3 @ Yet I taught Ephraim to walk; He took them up in his arms; but they did not know that I healed them.

updv@Hosea:11:4 @ I drew them with cords of man, with bands of love; and I was to them as those who lift up the yoke from their jaws; and I laid food before them.

updv@Hosea:11:5 @ They will not return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian will be their king, because they refused to return [to me].

updv@Hosea:11:6 @ And the sword will fall on their cities, and will consume their bars, and devour [them], because of their own counsels.

updv@Hosea:11:7 @ And my people are bent on backsliding from me: though they call them to [him who is] on high, none at all will exalt [him].

updv@Hosea:11:8 @ How shall I give you up, Ephraim? [How] shall I cast you off, Israel? How shall I make you as Admah? [How] shall I set you as Zeboiim? My heart is turned inside me, my compassions are kindled together.

updv@Hosea:11:9 @ I will not execute the fierceness of my anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you; and I will not come in wrath.

updv@Hosea:11:10 @ They will walk after Yahweh, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the sons will come trembling from the west.

updv@Hosea:11:11 @ They will come trembling as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will make them to dwell in their houses, says Yahweh.

updv@Hosea:11:12 @ Ephraim circles me about with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit; and even Judah went down from God and the faithful Holy One.

updv@Hosea:12:1 @ Ephraim feeds on wind, and follows after the east wind: he continually multiplies lies and violence; and they make a covenant with Assyria, and oil is carried into Egypt.

updv@Hosea:12:2 @ Yahweh also has a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings he will recompense him.

updv@Hosea:12:3 @ In the womb he took his brother by the heel; and in his manhood he had power with God:

updv@Hosea:12:4 @ yes, he had power over the angel, and prevailed; he wept, and made supplication to him: he found him at Beth-el, and there he spoke with us,

updv@Hosea:12:5 @ even Yahweh, the God of hosts; Yahweh is his memorial [name].

updv@Hosea:12:6 @ Therefore you will turn to your God: keep kindness and justice, and wait for your God continually.

updv@Hosea:12:7 @ [He is] a trafficker, the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loves to oppress.

updv@Hosea:12:8 @ And Ephraim said, Surely I have become rich, I have found wealth for myself: in all my labors they will find in me no iniquity which [would be] sin.

updv@Hosea:12:9 @ But I am Yahweh your God from the land of Egypt; I will yet again make you to dwell in tents, as in the days of the solemn feast.

updv@Hosea:12:10 @ I have also spoken to the prophets, and I have multiplied visions; and by the hand of the prophets I have used similitudes.

updv@Hosea:12:11 @ Is Gilead iniquity? They are altogether false; in Gilgal they sacrifice bullocks; yes, their altars are as heaps in the furrows of the field.

updv@Hosea:12:12 @ And Jacob fled into the field of Aram, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept [sheep].

updv@Hosea:12:13 @ And by a prophet Yahweh brought Israel up out of Egypt, and by a prophet he was preserved.

updv@Hosea:12:14 @ Ephraim has provoked to anger most bitterly: therefore his blood will be left on him, and his reproach his Lord will return to him.

updv@Hosea:13:1 @ When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling; he exalted himself in Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he died.

updv@Hosea:13:2 @ And now they sin more and more, and have made for themselves molten images of their silver, even idols according to their own understanding, all of them the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let man who sacrifices kiss the calves.

updv@Hosea:13:3 @ Therefore they will be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that passes early away, as the chaff that is driven with the whirlwind out of the threshing-floor, and as the smoke out of the chimney.

updv@Hosea:13:4 @ Yet I am Yahweh your God from the land of Egypt; and you will know no god but me, and besides me there is no savior.

updv@Hosea:13:5 @ I knew you in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.

updv@Hosea:13:6 @ According to their pasture, so they were filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted: therefore they have forgotten me.

updv@Hosea:13:7 @ Therefore I am to them as a lion; as a leopard I will watch by the way;

updv@Hosea:13:8 @ I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the caul of their heart; and there I will devour them like a lioness; the wild beast will tear them.

updv@Hosea:13:9 @ It is your destruction, O Israel, that [you are] against me, against your help.

updv@Hosea:13:10 @ Where now is your king, that he may save you in all your cities? And your judges, of whom you said, Give me a king and princes?

updv@Hosea:13:11 @ I have given you a king in my anger, and have taken him away in my wrath.

updv@Hosea:13:12 @ The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid up in store.

updv@Hosea:13:13 @ The sorrows of a travailing woman will come upon him: he is an unwise son; for it is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of sons.

updv@Hosea:13:14 @ I will ransom them from the power of Sheol; I will redeem them from death: O Death, I will be your plague. O Sheol, I will be your destruction. Repentance will be hid from my eyes.

updv@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he is fruitful among his brothers, an east wind will come, the breath of Yahweh coming up from the wilderness; and his spring will become dry, and his fountain will be dried up: he will make spoil of the treasure of all goodly vessels.

updv@Hosea:13:16 @ Samaria will bear her guilt; for she has rebelled against her God: they will fall by the sword; their infants will be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women will be ripped up.

updv@Hosea:14:1 @ O Israel, return to Yahweh your God; for you have fallen by your iniquity.

updv@Hosea:14:2 @ Take with you(note:){+}(:note) words, and return to Yahweh: say to him, Take away all iniquity, and accept that which is good: so we will render [as] bullocks [the offering of] our lips.

updv@Hosea:14:3 @ Assyria will not save us; we will not ride on horses; neither will we say anymore to the work of our hands, [You(note:){+}(:note) are] our gods; for in you the fatherless finds mercy.

updv@Hosea:14:4 @ I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely; for my anger is turned away from him.

updv@Hosea:14:5 @ I will be as the dew to Israel; he will blossom as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.

updv@Hosea:14:6 @ His branches will spread, and his beauty will be as the olive-tree, and his smell as Lebanon.

updv@Hosea:14:7 @ Those who dwell under his shadow will return; they will revive the grain, and blossom as the vine: his scent will be as the wine of Lebanon.

updv@Hosea:14:8 @ Ephraim [will say], What have I to do anymore with idols? I have answered, and will regard him: I am like a green fir-tree; from me is your fruit found.

updv@Hosea:14:9 @ Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of Yahweh are right, and the just will walk in them; but transgressors will fall in them.

updv@Joel:1:1 @ The word of Yahweh that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.

updv@Joel:1:2 @ Hear this, you(note:){+}(:note) old men, and give ear, all you{+} inhabitants of the land. Has this been in your{+} days, or in the days of your{+} fathers?

updv@Joel:1:3 @ Tell(note:){+}(:note) your{+} sons of it, and [let] your{+} sons [tell] their sons, and their sons another generation.

updv@Joel:1:4 @ That which the palmer-worm has left has the locust eaten; and that which the locust has left has the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm has left has the caterpillar eaten.

updv@Joel:1:5 @ Awake, you(note:){+}(:note) drunkards, and weep; and wail, all you{+} drinkers of wine, because of the sweet wine; for it is cut off from your{+} mouth.

updv@Joel:1:6 @ For a nation has come up on my land, strong, and without number; his teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he has the jaw-teeth of a lioness.

updv@Joel:1:7 @ He has laid my vine waste, and barked my fig-tree: he has made it clean bare, and cast it away; its branches are made white.

updv@Joel:1:8 @ Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.

updv@Joel:1:9 @ The meal-offering and the drink-offering are cut off from the house of Yahweh; the priests, Yahweh's ministers, mourn.

updv@Joel:1:10 @ The field is laid waste, the land mourns; for the grain is destroyed, the new wine is dried up, the oil languishes.

updv@Joel:1:11 @ Be confounded, O you(note:){+}(:note) husbandmen, wail, O you{+} vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; for the harvest of the field has perished.

updv@Joel:1:12 @ The vine is withered, and the fig-tree languishes; the pomegranate-tree, the palm-tree also, and the apple-tree, even all the trees of the field are withered: for joy has withered away from the sons of man.

updv@Joel:1:13 @ Gird yourselves [with sackcloth], and lament, you(note:){+}(:note) priests; wail, you{+} ministers of the altar; come, lie all night in sackcloth, you{+} ministers of my God: for the meal-offering and the drink-offering are withheld from the house of your{+} God.

updv@Joel:1:14 @ Sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the old men [and] all the inhabitants of the land to the house of Yahweh your(note:){+}(:note) God, and cry to Yahweh.

updv@Joel:1:15 @ Alas for the day! For the day of Yahweh is at hand, and as destruction from the Almighty it will come.

updv@Joel:1:16 @ Is not the food cut off before our eyes, [yes], joy and gladness from the house of our God?

updv@Joel:1:17 @ The seeds rot under their clods; the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the grain is withered.

updv@Joel:1:18 @ How the beasts groan! The herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yes, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.

updv@Joel:1:19 @ O Yahweh, to you I will cry; for the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame has burned all the trees of the field.

updv@Joel:1:20 @ Yes, the beasts of the field pant to you; for the water brooks are dried up, and the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.

updv@Joel:2:1 @ Blow(note:){+}(:note) the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain; let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of Yahweh comes, for it is near at hand;

updv@Joel:2:2 @ a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, as the dawn spread on the mountains; a great and a strong people; there has not ever been the like, neither will [there] be anymore after them, even to the years of many generations.

updv@Joel:2:3 @ A fire devours before them; and behind them a flame burns: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yes, and none has escaped them.

updv@Joel:2:4 @ The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so they run.

updv@Joel:2:5 @ Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.

updv@Joel:2:6 @ At their presence the peoples are in anguish; all faces are waxed pale.

updv@Joel:2:7 @ They run like mighty men; they climb the wall like men of war; and they march every one on his ways, and they do not proceed in a confused manner on their way.

updv@Joel:2:8 @ Neither does one thrust another; they march every [able-bodied] man in his path; and they burst through the weapons, and don't break off [their course].

updv@Joel:2:9 @ They leap on the city; they run on the wall; they climb up into the houses; they enter in at the windows like a thief.

updv@Joel:2:10 @ The earth quakes before them; the heavens tremble; the sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.

updv@Joel:2:11 @ And Yahweh utters his voice before his army; for his camp is very great; for he is strong that executes his word; for the day of Yahweh is great and very awesome; and who can endure it?

updv@Joel:2:12 @ Yet even now, says Yahweh, turn(note:){+}(:note) to me with all your{+} heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:

updv@Joel:2:13 @ and rend your(note:){+}(:note) heart, and not your{+} garments, and turn to Yahweh your{+} God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving-kindness, and repents of the evil.

updv@Joel:2:14 @ Who knows whether he will not turn and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal-offering and a drink-offering to Yahweh your(note:){+}(:note) God?

updv@Joel:2:15 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly;

updv@Joel:2:16 @ gather the people, sanctify the assembly, assemble the old men, gather the children, and those who are nursed by the breasts; let the bridegroom go forth from his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.

updv@Joel:2:17 @ Let the priests, the ministers of Yahweh, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare your people, O Yahweh, and don't give your heritage to reproach, that the nations should rule over them: why should they say among the peoples, Where is their God?

updv@Joel:2:18 @ Then Yahweh was jealous for his land, and had pity on his people.

updv@Joel:2:19 @ And Yahweh answered and said to his people, Look, I will send you(note:){+}(:note) grain, and new wine, and oil, and you{+} will be satisfied with them; and I will no more make you{+} a reproach among the nations;

updv@Joel:2:20 @ but I will remove far off from you(note:){+}(:note) the northern [army], and will drive it into a land barren and desolate, its forepart into the eastern sea, and its hinder part into the western sea; and its stench will come up, and its ill savor will come up, because it has done great things.

updv@Joel:2:21 @ Don't be afraid, O land, be glad and rejoice; for Yahweh has done great things.

updv@Joel:2:22 @ Don't be afraid, you(note:){+}(:note) beasts of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree bears its fruit, the fig-tree and the vine yield their strength.

updv@Joel:2:23 @ Be glad then, you(note:){+}(:note) sons of Zion, and rejoice in Yahweh your{+} God; for he gives you{+} the former rain in just measure, and he causes to come down for you{+} the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, in the first [month].

updv@Joel:2:24 @ And the floors will be full of wheat, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.

updv@Joel:2:25 @ And I will restore to you(note:){+}(:note) the years that the locust has eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm, my great army which I sent among you{+}.

updv@Joel:2:26 @ And you(note:){+}(:note) will eat in plenty and be satisfied, and will praise the name of Yahweh your{+} God, that has dealt wondrously with you{+}; and my people will never be put to shame.

updv@Joel:2:27 @ And you(note:){+}(:note) will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am Yahweh your{+} God, and there is no other; and my people will never be put to shame.

updv@Joel:2:28 @ And it will come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your(note:){+}(:note) sons and your{+} daughters will prophesy, your{+} old men will dream dreams, your{+} young men will see visions:

updv@Joel:2:29 @ and also on the male slaves and on the female slaves in those days I will pour out my Spirit.

updv@Joel:2:30 @ And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.

updv@Joel:2:31 @ The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and awesome day of Yahweh comes.

updv@Joel:2:32 @ And it will come to pass, that whoever will call on the name of Yahweh will be delivered; for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, and among the remnant those whom Yahweh calls.

updv@Joel:3:1 @ For, look, in those days, and in that time, when I will bring back the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,

updv@Joel:3:2 @ I will gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will execute judgment on them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations: and they have parted my land,

updv@Joel:3:4 @ Yes, and what are you(note:){+}(:note) to me, O Tyre, and Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? Will you{+} render me a recompense? And if you{+} recompense me, swiftly and speedily I will return your{+} recompense on your{+} own head.

updv@Joel:3:5 @ Since you(note:){+}(:note) have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your{+} temples my goodly precious things,

updv@Joel:3:6 @ and have sold the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem to the sons of the Grecians, that you(note:){+}(:note) may remove them far from their border;

updv@Joel:3:7 @ look, I will stir them up out of the place where you(note:){+}(:note) have sold them, and will return your{+} recompense on your{+} own head;

updv@Joel:3:8 @ and I will sell your(note:){+}(:note) sons and your{+} daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the men of Sheba, to a nation far off: for Yahweh has spoken it.

updv@Joel:3:9 @ Proclaim(note:){+}(:note) this among the nations; prepare war; stir up the mighty men; let all the men of war draw near, let them come up.

updv@Joel:3:10 @ Beat your(note:){+}(:note) plowshares into swords, and your{+} pruning-hooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.

updv@Joel:3:11 @ Hurry(note:){+}(:note), and come, all you{+} nations round about, and gather yourselves together: there cause your mighty ones to come down, O Yahweh.

updv@Joel:3:12 @ Let the nations bestir themselves, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat; for there I will sit to judge all the nations round about.

updv@Joel:3:13 @ Put(note:){+}(:note) in the sickle; for the harvest is ripe: come, tread{+}; for the wine press is full, the vats overflow; for their wickedness is great.

updv@Joel:3:14 @ Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Yahweh is near in the valley of decision.

updv@Joel:3:15 @ The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.

updv@Joel:3:16 @ And Yahweh will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth will shake: but Yahweh will be a refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the sons of Israel.

updv@Joel:3:17 @ So you(note:){+}(:note) will know that I am Yahweh your{+} God, staying in Zion my holy mountain: then Jerusalem will be holy, and there will no strangers pass through her anymore.

updv@Joel:3:18 @ And it will come to pass in that day, that the mountains will drop down sweet wine, and the hills will flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah will flow with waters; and a fountain will come forth from the house of Yahweh, and will water the valley of Shittim.

updv@Joel:3:19 @ Egypt will be a desolation, and Edom will be a desolate wilderness, for the violence done to the sons of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.

updv@Joel:3:20 @ But Judah will remain forever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.

updv@Joel:3:21 @ And I will make their blood innocent, that I have not made innocent: for Yahweh stays in Zion.

updv@Amos:1:1 @ The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

updv@Amos:1:2 @ And he said, Yahweh will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds will mourn, and the top of Carmel will wither.

updv@Amos:1:3 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:

updv@Amos:1:4 @ but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.

updv@Amos:1:5 @ And I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, and him who holds the scepter from the house of Eden; and the people of Syria will go into captivity to Kir, says Yahweh.

updv@Amos:1:6 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Gaza, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they carried away captive the whole people, to deliver them up to Edom:

updv@Amos:1:7 @ but I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it will devour its palaces.

updv@Amos:1:8 @ And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon; and I will turn my hand against Ekron; and the remnant of the Philistines will perish, says the Sovereign Yahweh.

updv@Amos:1:9 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Tyre, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they delivered up the whole people to Edom, and did not remember the brotherly covenant:

updv@Amos:1:10 @ but I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it will devour its palaces.

updv@Amos:1:11 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Edom, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he pursued his brother with the sword, and had cast off all pity, and his anger tore perpetually, and he kept his wrath forever:

updv@Amos:1:12 @ but I will send a fire on Teman, and it will devour the palaces of Bozrah.

updv@Amos:1:13 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have ripped up the pregnant women of Gilead, that they may enlarge their border.

updv@Amos:1:14 @ But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it will devour its palaces, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind;

updv@Amos:1:15 @ and their king will go into captivity, he and his princes together, says Yahweh.

updv@Amos:2:1 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:

updv@Amos:2:2 @ but I will send a fire on Moab, and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth; and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet;

updv@Amos:2:3 @ and I will cut off the judge from the midst of it, and will slay all its princes with him, says Yahweh.

updv@Amos:2:4 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Judah, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have rejected the law of Yahweh, and have not kept his statutes, and their lies have caused them to err, after which their fathers walked:

updv@Amos:2:5 @ but I will send a fire on Judah, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem.

updv@Amos:2:6 @ Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Israel, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals--

updv@Amos:3:11 @ Therefore thus says the Sovereign Yahweh: An adversary [there will be], even round about the land; and he will bring down your strength from you, and your palaces will be plundered.

updv@Amos:3:12 @ Thus says Yahweh: As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, so will the sons of Israel be rescued that sit in Samaria in the corner of a couch, and on the silken cushions of a bed.

updv@Amos:5:8 @ [seek him] that makes the Pleiades and Orion, and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night; that calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth (Yahweh is his name);

updv@Amos:5:10 @ They hate him who reproves in the gate, and they are disgusted by him who speaks uprightly.

updv@Amos:5:11 @ Forasmuch therefore as you(note:){+}(:note) trample on the poor, and take exactions from him of wheat: you{+} have built houses of cut stone, but you{+} will not dwell in them; you{+} have planted pleasant vineyards, but you{+} will not drink their wine.

updv@Amos:5:12 @ For I know how manifold are your(note:){+}(:note) transgressions, and how mighty are your{+} sins--you{+} who afflict the just, who take a bribe, and who turn aside the needy in the gate [from their right].

updv@Amos:5:13 @ Therefore he who is prudent will keep silent in such a time; for it is an evil time.

updv@Amos:5:14 @ Seek good, and not evil, that you(note:){+}(:note) may live; and so Yahweh, the God of hosts, will be with you{+}, as you{+} say.

updv@Amos:5:15 @ Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish justice in the gate: it may be that Yahweh, the God of hosts, will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.

updv@Amos:5:16 @ Therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of hosts, the Lord: Wailing will be in all the broad ways; and they will say in all the streets, Alas! Alas! And they will call the husbandman to mourning, and a wailing for such as are skillful in lamentation.

updv@Amos:5:17 @ And in all vineyards will be wailing; for I will pass through the midst of you, says Yahweh.

updv@Amos:5:18 @ Woe to you(note:){+}(:note) who desire the day of Yahweh! Why would you{+} have the day of Yahweh? It is darkness, and not light.

updv@Amos:5:19 @ As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

updv@Amos:5:20 @ Will not the day of Yahweh be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?

updv@Amos:5:21 @ I hate, I despise your(note:){+}(:note) feasts, and I will take no delight in your{+} solemn assemblies.

updv@Amos:5:22 @ Yes, though you(note:){+}(:note) offer me your{+} burnt-offerings and meal-offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace-offerings of your{+} fat beasts.

updv@Amos:5:23 @ Take away from me the noise of your songs; for I will not hear the melody of your viols.

updv@Amos:5:24 @ But let justice roll down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.

updv@Amos:5:25 @ Did you(note:){+}(:note) bring to me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

updv@Amos:5:26 @ Yes, you(note:){+}(:note) have borne the tabernacle of your{+} king and the Kewan--your{+} idols, the star of your{+} god which you{+} made to yourselves.

updv@Amos:5:27 @ Therefore I will cause you(note:){+}(:note) to go into captivity beyond Damascus, says Yahweh, whose name is the God of hosts.

updv@Amos:6:1 @ Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure in the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!

updv@Amos:6:2 @ Pass(note:){+}(:note) to Calneh, and see; and from there go{+} to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines: are they better than these kingdoms? Or is their border greater than your{+} border?

updv@Amos:6:3 @ --you(note:){+}(:note) who put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;

updv@Amos:6:4 @ who lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;

updv@Amos:6:5 @ who sing idle songs to the sound of the viol; who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;

updv@Amos:6:6 @ who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief oils; but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

updv@Amos:6:7 @ Therefore they will now go captive with the first that go captive; and the revelry of those who stretched themselves will pass away.

updv@Amos:6:8 @ The Sovereign Yahweh has sworn by himself, says Yahweh, the God of hosts: I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces; therefore I will deliver up the city with all that is in it.

updv@Amos:6:9 @ And it will come to pass, if ten men remain in one house, that they will die.

updv@Amos:6:11 @ For, look, Yahweh commands, and the great house will be struck with breaches, and the little house with clefts.

updv@Amos:6:12 @ Will horses run on the rock? Will one plow [there] with oxen? that you(note:){+}(:note) have turned justice into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood;

updv@Amos:6:13 @ you(note:){+}(:note) who rejoice in a thing of nothing, who say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?

updv@Amos:6:14 @ For, look, I will raise up against you(note:){+}(:note) a nation, O house of Israel, says Yahweh, the God of hosts; and they will afflict you{+} from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of the Arabah.

updv@Amos:7:1 @ Thus the Sovereign Yahweh showed me: and, look, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, look, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings.

updv@Amos:7:2 @ And it came to pass that, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Sovereign Yahweh, forgive, I urge you: how will Jacob stand? For he is small.

updv@Amos:7:3 @ Yahweh repented concerning this: It will not be, says Yahweh.

updv@Amos:7:4 @ Thus the Sovereign Yahweh showed me: and, look, the Sovereign Yahweh called to contend by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and would have eaten up the land.

updv@Amos:7:5 @ Then I said, O Sovereign Yahweh, cease, I urge you: how will Jacob stand? For he is small.

updv@Amos:7:6 @ Yahweh repented concerning this: this also will not be, says the Sovereign Yahweh.

updv@Amos:7:7 @ Thus he showed me: and, look, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand.

updv@Amos:7:8 @ And Yahweh said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A plumb-line. Then said the Lord, Look, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel; I will not again pass by them anymore;

updv@Amos:7:9 @ and the high places of Isaac will be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel will be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.

updv@Amos:7:10 @ Then Amaziah the priest of Beth-el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.

updv@Amos:7:11 @ For thus Amos says, Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely be led away captive out of his land.

updv@Amos:7:12 @ Also Amaziah said to Amos, O you seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there:

updv@Amos:7:13 @ but don't prophesy again anymore at Beth-el; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal house.

updv@Amos:7:14 @ Then Amos answered, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdsman, and a dresser of sycamore-trees:

updv@Amos:7:15 @ and Yahweh took me from following the flock, and Yahweh said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel.

updv@Amos:7:16 @ Now therefore hear the word of Yahweh: You say, Don't prophesy against Israel, and don't drop [your word] against the house of Isaac;

updv@Amos:7:17 @ therefore thus says Yahweh: Your wife will prostitute in the city, and your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, and your land will be divided by line; and you yourself will die in a land that is unclean, and Israel will surely be led away captive out of his land.

updv@Amos:8:1 @ Thus the Sovereign Yahweh showed me: and, look, a basket of summer fruit.

updv@Amos:8:2 @ And he said, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then Yahweh said to me, The end has come upon my people Israel; I will not again pass by them anymore.

updv@Amos:8:3 @ And the songs of the temple will be wailings in that day, says the Sovereign Yahweh: the dead bodies will be many: in every place they will cast them forth with silence.

updv@Amos:8:4 @ Hear this, O you(note:){+}(:note) who would swallow up the needy, and cause the poor of the land to fail,

updv@Amos:8:5 @ saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and dealing falsely with balances of deceit;

updv@Amos:8:6 @ that we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals, and sell the refuse of the wheat?

updv@Amos:8:7 @ Yahweh has sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.

updv@Amos:8:8 @ Will not the land tremble for this, and everyone mourn that dwells in it? Yes, it will rise up wholly like the River; and it will be troubled and sink again, like the River of Egypt.

updv@Amos:8:9 @ And it will come to pass in that day, says the Sovereign Yahweh, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day.

updv@Amos:8:10 @ And I will turn your(note:){+}(:note) feasts into mourning, and all your{+} songs into lamentation; and I will bring sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head; and I will make it as the mourning for an only son, and its end as a bitter day.

updv@Amos:8:11 @ Look, the days come, says the Sovereign Yahweh, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Yahweh.

updv@Amos:8:12 @ And they will wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they will run to and fro to seek the word of Yahweh, and will not find it.

updv@Amos:8:13 @ In that day the beautiful virgins and the young men will faint for thirst.

updv@Amos:8:14 @ Those who swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, As your god, O Dan, lives; and, As the pilgrimage of Beer-sheba lives; they will fall, and never rise up again.

updv@Amos:9:1 @ I saw the Lord standing beside the altar: and he said, Strike the capitals, that the thresholds may shake; and break them to pieces on the head of all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: there will not one of them flee away, and there will not one of them escape.

updv@Amos:9:2 @ Though they dig into Sheol, from there will my hand take them; and though they climb up to heaven, from there I will bring them down.

updv@Amos:9:3 @ And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they are hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, from there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.

updv@Amos:9:4 @ And though they go into captivity before their enemies, from there I will command the sword, and it will slay them: and I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.

updv@Amos:9:5 @ For the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, [is] he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt;

updv@Amos:9:6 @ [it is] he who builds his staircase in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth; Yahweh is his name.

updv@Amos:9:7 @ Are you(note:){+}(:note) not as the sons of the Ethiopians to me, O sons of Israel? says Yahweh. Haven't I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

updv@Amos:9:8 @ Look, the eyes of the Sovereign Yahweh are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; except that I will not completely destroy the house of Jacob, says Yahweh.

updv@Amos:9:9 @ For, look, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, like [grain] is sifted in a sieve, yet the least kernel will not fall on the earth.

updv@Amos:9:10 @ All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, The evil will not overtake nor meet us.

updv@Amos:9:11 @ In that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David that has fallen, and close up its breaches; and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;

updv@Amos:9:12 @ that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations that are called by my name, says Yahweh who does this.

updv@Amos:9:13 @ Look, the days come, says Yahweh, that the plowman will overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed; and the mountains will drop sweet wine, and all the hills will melt.

updv@Amos:9:14 @ And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel, and they will build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink their wine; they will also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

updv@Amos:9:15 @ And I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, says Yahweh your God.

updv@Obadiah:1:1 @ The vision of Obadiah. Thus says the Sovereign Yahweh concerning Edom: We have heard news from Yahweh, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, [saying], Arise(note:){+}(:note), and let us rise up against her in battle.

updv@Obadiah:1:2 @ Look, I have made you small among the nations: you are greatly despised.

updv@Obadiah:1:3 @ The pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who stay in the clefts of the rock, in the height of your habitation; who says in his heart, Who will bring me down to the ground?

updv@Obadiah:1:4 @ Though you mount on high as the eagle, and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there, says Yahweh.

updv@Obadiah:1:5 @ If thieves came to you, if robbers by night (how you are cut off!), would they not steal [only] until they had enough? If grape-gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes?

updv@Obadiah:1:6 @ How are [the things of] Esau searched! How are his hidden treasures sought out!

updv@Obadiah:1:7 @ All the men of your confederacy have brought you on your way, even to the border: the men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you; [those who eat] your bread lay a snare under you: there is no understanding in him.

updv@Obadiah:1:8 @ Shall I not in that day, says Yahweh, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?

updv@Obadiah:1:9 @ And your mighty men, O Teman, will be dismayed, to the end that everyone may be cut off from the mount of Esau by slaughter.

updv@Obadiah:1:10 @ For the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever.

updv@Obadiah:1:11 @ In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots on Jerusalem, even you were as one of them.

updv@Obadiah:1:12 @ But don't look on the day of your brother in the day of his disaster, and don't rejoice over the sons of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither speak proudly in the day of distress.

updv@Obadiah:1:13 @ Don't enter into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yes, don't look on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither lay(note:){+}(:note) [hands] on their substance in the day of their calamity.

updv@Obadiah:1:14 @ And don't stand in the crossway, to cut off those of his that escape; and don't deliver up those of his that remain in the day of distress.

updv@Obadiah:1:15 @ For the day of Yahweh is near on all the nations: as you have done, it will be done to you; your dealing will return on your own head.

updv@Obadiah:1:16 @ For as you(note:){+}(:note) have drank on my holy mountain, so will all the nations drink continually; yes, they will drink, and swallow down, and will be as though they had not been.

updv@Obadiah:1:17 @ But in mount Zion there will be those who escape, and it will be holy; and the house of Jacob will possess those who dispossess them.

updv@Obadiah:1:18 @ And the house of Jacob will be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they will burn among them, and devour them; and there will not be any remaining to the house of Esau; for Yahweh has spoken it.

updv@Obadiah:1:19 @ And those of the South will possess the mount of Esau, and those of the lowland the Philistines; and they will possess the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria; and Benjamin [will possess] Gilead.

updv@Obadiah:1:20 @ And the captives of this bulwark of the sons of Israel, who are [among] the Canaanites, [will possess] even to Zarephath; and the captives of Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will possess the cities of the South.

updv@Obadiah:1:21 @ And saviors will come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom will be Yahweh's.

updv@Jonah:1:1 @ Now the word of Yahweh came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,

updv@Jonah:1:2 @ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness has come up before me.

updv@Jonah:1:3 @ But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh; and he went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh.

updv@Jonah:1:4 @ But Yahweh sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty tempest on the sea, so that the ship was likely to be broken.

updv@Jonah:1:5 @ Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man to his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it to them. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.

updv@Jonah:1:6 @ So the shipmaster came to him, and said to him, What do you mean, O sleeper? Arise, call on your God, perhaps God will think on us, that we will not perish.

updv@Jonah:1:7 @ And they said every one to his fellow man, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is on us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.

updv@Jonah:1:8 @ Then they said to him, Tell us, we pray you, for whose cause this evil is on us; what is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? And of what people are you?

updv@Jonah:1:9 @ And he said to them, I am a Hebrew; and I fear Yahweh, the God of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land.

updv@Jonah:1:10 @ Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to him, What is this that you have done? For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of Yahweh, because he had told them.

updv@Jonah:1:11 @ Then they said to him, What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us? For the sea grew more and more tempestuous.

updv@Jonah:1:12 @ And he said to them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so the sea will be calm to you(note:){+}(:note): for I know that for my sake this great tempest is on you{+}.

updv@Jonah:1:13 @ Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get back to the land; but they could not: for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them.

updv@Jonah:1:14 @ Therefore they cried to Yahweh, and said, We urge you, O Yahweh, we urge you, let us not perish for this man's life, and don't lay innocent blood on us; for you, O Yahweh, have done as it pleased you.

updv@Jonah:1:15 @ So they took up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea; and the sea ceased from its raging.

updv@Jonah:1:16 @ Then the men feared Yahweh exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice to Yahweh, and made vows.

updv@Jonah:1:17 @ And Yahweh prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah; and Jonah was in the insides of the fish three days and three nights.

updv@Jonah:2:1 @ Then Jonah prayed to Yahweh his God out of the insides of the fish.

updv@Jonah:2:2 @ And he said, I called by reason of my affliction to Yahweh, And he answered me; Out of the belly of Sheol I cried, [And] you heard my voice.

updv@Jonah:2:3 @ For you had cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me; All your waves and your billows passed over me.

updv@Jonah:2:4 @ And I said, I am cast out from before your eyes; Yet I will look again toward your holy temple.

updv@Jonah:2:5 @ The waters surrounded me, even to the soul; The deep was round about me; The weeds were wrapped about my head.

updv@Jonah:2:6 @ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The earth with its bars [closed] on me forever: Yet you have brought up my life from the pit, O Yahweh my God.

updv@Jonah:2:7 @ When my soul fainted inside me, I remembered Yahweh; And my prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.

updv@Jonah:2:8 @ Those who regard lying vanities Forsake their own mercy.

updv@Jonah:2:9 @ But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is of Yahweh.

updv@Jonah:2:10 @ And Yahweh spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.

updv@Jonah:3:1 @ And the word of Yahweh came to Jonah the second time, saying,

updv@Jonah:3:2 @ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach to it the preaching that I bid you.

updv@Jonah:3:3 @ So Jonah arose, and went to Nineveh, according to the word of Yahweh. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, of three days' journey.

updv@Jonah:3:4 @ And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh will be overthrown.

updv@Jonah:3:5 @ And the people of Nineveh believed God; and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.

updv@Jonah:3:6 @ And the news reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and laid his robe from him, and covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.

updv@Jonah:3:7 @ And he made proclamation and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything; don't let them feed, nor drink water;

updv@Jonah:3:8 @ but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and beast, and let them cry mightily to God: yes, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in his hands.

updv@Jonah:3:9 @ Who knows whether God will not turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we will not perish?

updv@Jonah:3:10 @ And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil which he said he would do to them; and he did not do it.

updv@Jonah:4:1 @ But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.

updv@Jonah:4:2 @ And he prayed to Yahweh, and said, I pray you, O Yahweh, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving-kindness, and one who repents of the evil.

updv@Jonah:4:3 @ Therefore now, O Yahweh, take, I urge you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.

updv@Jonah:4:4 @ And Yahweh said, Do you well to be angry?

updv@Jonah:4:5 @ Then Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made for himself a booth, and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would become of the city.

updv@Jonah:4:6 @ And Yahweh God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head, to deliver him from his evil case. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the gourd.

updv@Jonah:4:7 @ But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it struck the gourd, that it withered.

updv@Jonah:4:8 @ And it came to pass, when the sun arose, that God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and requested for himself that he might die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.

updv@Jonah:4:9 @ And God said to Jonah, Do you well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even to death.

updv@Jonah:4:10 @ And Yahweh said, You have had regard for the gourd, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

updv@Jonah:4:11 @ and should I not have regard for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than sixscore thousand of man who can't discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?

updv@Micah:1:1 @ The word of Yahweh that came to Micah the Morashtite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.

updv@Micah:1:2 @ Hear, you(note:){+}(:note) peoples, all of you{+}: listen, O earth, and all that is in it: and let the Sovereign Yahweh be witness against you{+}, the Lord from his holy temple.

updv@Micah:1:3 @ For, look, Yahweh comes forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread on the high places of the earth.

updv@Micah:1:4 @ And the mountains will be melted under him, and the valleys will be split, as wax before the fire, as waters that are poured down a steep place.

updv@Micah:1:5 @ For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what are the high places of Judah? Are they not Jerusalem?

updv@Micah:1:6 @ Therefore I will make Samaria as a heap of the field, [and] as places for planting vineyards; and I will pour down her stones into the valley, and I will uncover her foundations.

updv@Micah:1:7 @ And all her graven images will be beaten to pieces, and all her wages will be burned with fire, and all her idols I will lay desolate; for of the wages of a prostitute she has gathered them, and to the wages of a prostitute they will return.

updv@Micah:1:8 @ For this I will lament and wail; I will go stripped and naked; I will make a wailing like the jackals, and a lamentation like the ostriches.

updv@Micah:1:9 @ For her wounds are incurable; for it has come even to Judah; it reaches to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.

updv@Micah:1:10 @ Don't tell it in Gath, don't weep at all: at Beth-le-aphrah I have rolled myself in the dust.

updv@Micah:1:11 @ Pass by, O inhabitant of Shaphir, in nakedness and shame: the inhabitant of Zaanan has not come forth; the wailing of Beth-ezel will take from you(note:){+}(:note) its standing ground.

updv@Micah:1:12 @ For the inhabitant of Maroth waits anxiously for good, because evil has come down from Yahweh to the gate of Jerusalem.

updv@Micah:1:13 @ Bind the chariot to the swift steed, O inhabitant of Lachish: she was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion; for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.

updv@Micah:1:14 @ Therefore you will give a parting gift to Moresheth-gath: the houses of Achzib will be a deceitful thing to the kings of Israel.

updv@Micah:1:15 @ I will yet bring to you, O inhabitant of Mareshah, him who will possess you: the glory of Israel will come even to Adullam.

updv@Micah:1:16 @ Make yourself bald, and cut off your hair for the sons of your delight: enlarge your baldness as the eagle; for they have gone into captivity from you.

updv@Micah:2:1 @ Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil on their beds! When the morning is light, they do it, because it is in the power of their hand.

updv@Micah:2:2 @ And they covet fields, and seize them; and houses, and take them away: and they oppress a [noble] man and his house, even a man and his heritage.

updv@Micah:2:3 @ Therefore thus says Yahweh: Look, I devise an evil against this family, from which you(note:){+}(:note) will not remove your{+} necks, neither will you{+} walk haughtily; for it is an evil time.

updv@Micah:2:4 @ In that day they will take up a parable against you(note:){+}(:note), and lament with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We are completely ruined: he exchanges the portion of my people: how he removes [it] from me! In order to make restitution, he divides our fields.

updv@Micah:2:5 @ Therefore you will have none who will cast the line by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.

updv@Micah:2:6 @ Do not prophesy(note:){+}(:note), [thus] they prophesy. They will not prophesy to these: reproaches will not depart.

updv@Micah:2:7 @ Will it be said, O house of Jacob, Is the Spirit of Yahweh straitened? Are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks uprightly?

updv@Micah:2:8 @ Even yesterday my people rose up as an enemy: in front of a cloak you(note:){+}(:note) strip the glory from those who pass by securely, being averse to war.

updv@Micah:2:9 @ The women of my people you(note:){+}(:note) cast out from their pleasant houses; from their young children you{+} take away my glory forever.

updv@Micah:2:10 @ Arise(note:){+}(:note), and depart; for this is not your{+} resting-place; because of uncleanness that destroys, even with a grievous destruction.

updv@Micah:2:11 @ If a man walking after the wind and producing lies, lies, [saying], I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink; he will even be the prophet of this people.

updv@Micah:2:12 @ I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of you; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as a flock in the midst of their pasture; they will make great noise by reason of man.

updv@Micah:2:13 @ The breaker has gone up before them: they have broken forth and passed on to the gate, and have gone out of it; and their king has passed on before them, and Yahweh at the head of them.

updv@Micah:3:1 @ And I said, Hear, I pray you(note:){+}(:note), you{+} heads of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel: is it not for you{+} to know justice?

updv@Micah:3:2 @ You(note:){+}(:note) who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;

updv@Micah:3:3 @ who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them, and break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh inside the cauldron.

updv@Micah:3:4 @ Then they will cry to Yahweh, but he will not answer them; yes, he will hide his face from them at that time, according to as they have wrought evil in their doings.

updv@Micah:3:5 @ Thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets that make my people to err; that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and whoever does not put into their mouths, they even prepare war against him:

updv@Micah:3:6 @ Therefore it will be night to you(note:){+}(:note), that you{+} will have no vision; and it will be dark to you{+}, that you{+} will not have fortune-telling; and the sun will go down on the prophets, and the day will be black over them.

updv@Micah:3:7 @ And the seers will be put to shame, and the fortune-tellers confounded; yes, they will all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God.

updv@Micah:3:8 @ But as for me, I am full of power by the Spirit of Yahweh, and of judgment, and of might, to declare to Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.

updv@Micah:3:9 @ Hear this, I pray you(note:){+}(:note), you{+} heads of the house of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel, who are disgusted by justice, and pervert all equity.

updv@Micah:3:10 @ They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.

updv@Micah:3:11 @ The heads of it judge for reward, and its priests teach for wages, and its prophets tell the future for money: yet they lean on Yahweh, and say, Is not Yahweh in the midst of us? No evil will come upon us.

updv@Micah:3:12 @ Therefore will Zion for your(note:){+}(:note) sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem will become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.

updv@Micah:4:1 @ But in the latter days it will come to pass, that the mountain of Yahweh's house will be established on the top of the mountains, and it will be exalted above the hills; and peoples will flow to it.

updv@Micah:4:2 @ And many nations will go and say, Come(note:){+}(:note), and let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion will go forth the law, and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem;

updv@Micah:4:3 @ and he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations far off: and they will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war anymore.

updv@Micah:4:4 @ But they will sit every man under his vine and under his fig-tree; and none will make them afraid: for the mouth of Yahweh of hosts has spoken it.

updv@Micah:4:5 @ For all the peoples walk every one in the name of his god; and we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever.

updv@Micah:4:6 @ In that day, says Yahweh, I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted;

updv@Micah:4:7 @ and I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation: and Yahweh will reign over them in mount Zion from now on even forever.

updv@Micah:4:8 @ And you, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come, yes, the former dominion will come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.

updv@Micah:4:9 @ Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you, has your counselor perished, that pangs have taken hold of you as of a woman in travail?

updv@Micah:4:10 @ Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now you will go forth out of the city, and will stay in the field, and will come even to Babylon: there you will be rescued; there Yahweh will redeem you from the hand of your enemies.

updv@Micah:4:11 @ And now many nations are assembled against you, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye see [our desire] on Zion.

updv@Micah:4:12 @ But they don't know the thoughts of Yahweh, neither do they understand his counsel; for he has gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor.

updv@Micah:4:13 @ Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze; and you will beat in pieces many peoples: and I will devote their gain to Yahweh, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.

updv@Micah:5:1 @ Now gash yourself, O daughter of troops: he has laid siege against us; they will strike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.

updv@Micah:5:2 @ But you, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which are little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of you will one come forth to me who is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from everlasting.

updv@Micah:5:3 @ Therefore he will give them up, until the time that she who travails has brought forth: then the residue of his brothers will return to the sons of Israel.

updv@Micah:5:4 @ And he will stand, and will shepherd [his flock] in the strength of Yahweh, in the majesty of the name of Yahweh his God: and they will remain; for now he will be great to the ends of the earth.

updv@Micah:5:5 @ And this [man] will be [our] peace. When the Assyrian will come into our land, and when he will tread in our palaces, then we will raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principals of man.

updv@Micah:5:6 @ And they will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the dagger: and he will deliver from the Assyrian, when he comes into our land, and when he treads inside our border.

updv@Micah:5:7 @ And the remnant of Jacob will be in the midst of many peoples as dew from Yahweh, as showers on the grass, that do not tarry for man, nor wait for the sons of men.

updv@Micah:5:8 @ And the remnant of Jacob will be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep; who, if he goes through, treads down and tears in pieces, and there is none to deliver.

updv@Micah:5:9 @ Let your hand be lifted up above your adversaries, and let all your enemies be cut off.

updv@Micah:5:10 @ And it will come to pass in that day, says Yahweh, that I will cut off your horses out of the midst of you, and will destroy your chariots:

updv@Micah:5:11 @ and I will cut off the cities of your land, and will throw down all your strongholds.

updv@Micah:5:12 @ And I will cut off sorcerers out of your hand; and you will have no psychics:

updv@Micah:5:13 @ and I will cut off your graven images and your pillars out of the midst of you; and you will no more worship the work of your hands;

updv@Micah:5:14 @ and I will pluck up your Asherim out of the midst of you; and I will destroy your cities.

updv@Micah:5:15 @ And I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath on the nations which did not listen.

updv@Micah:6:1 @ Hear(note:){+}(:note) now what Yahweh says: Arise, contend before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice.

updv@Micah:6:2 @ Hear, O you(note:){+}(:note) mountains, Yahweh's controversy, and you{+} enduring foundations of the earth; for Yahweh has a controversy with his people, and he will contend with Israel.

updv@Micah:6:3 @ O my people, what have I done to you? And in what have I wearied you? Testify against me.

updv@Micah:6:4 @ For I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of slaves; and I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.

updv@Micah:6:5 @ O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab devised, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him; [remember] from Shittim to Gilgal, that you(note:){+}(:note) may know the righteous acts of Yahweh.

updv@Micah:6:6 @ How shall I come before Yahweh, and bow myself before the high God? Shall I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves a year old?

updv@Micah:6:7 @ Will Yahweh be pleased with thousands of rams, [or] with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

updv@Micah:6:8 @ He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does Yahweh require of you, but to do justly, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

updv@Micah:6:9 @ The voice of Yahweh cries to the city, and wisdom will see your name: hear(note:){+}(:note) the rod, and who has appointed it.

updv@Micah:6:10 @ Are there yet treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and a scant measure that is abhorred?

updv@Micah:6:11 @ Shall I be pure with wicked balances, and with a bag of deceitful weights?

updv@Micah:6:12 @ For its rich men are full of violence, and its inhabitants have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.

updv@Micah:6:13 @ Therefore I also have struck you with a grievous wound; I have made you desolate because of your sins.

updv@Micah:6:14 @ You will eat, but not be satisfied; and your humiliation will be in the midst of you: and you will put away, but will not save; and that which you save I will give up to the sword.

updv@Micah:6:15 @ You will sow, but will not reap; you will tread the olives, but you will not anoint with oil; and the vintage, but will not drink the wine.

updv@Micah:6:16 @ For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and you(note:){+}(:note) walk in their counsels; that I may make you a desolation, and her inhabitants a hissing: and you{+} will bear the reproach of my people.

updv@Micah:7:1 @ Woe is me! For I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat; my soul desires the first-ripe fig.

updv@Micah:7:2 @ The godly has perished from the earth, and the upright is not among man: all of them lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.

updv@Micah:7:3 @ Their hands are on that which is evil to do it diligently; the prince asks, and the judge [is ready] for a reward; and the great man, he utters the evil desire of his soul: thus they weave it together.

updv@Micah:7:4 @ The best of them is as a brier; the upright is [worse] than a thorn hedge: the day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now will be their perplexity.

updv@Micah:7:5 @ Don't trust(note:){+}(:note) in a companion; don't put{+} confidence in a best friend; keep the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your bosom.

updv@Micah:7:6 @ For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.

updv@Micah:7:7 @ But as for me, I will look to Yahweh; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

updv@Micah:7:8 @ Don't rejoice against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I will arise; when I sit in darkness, Yahweh will be a light to me.

updv@Micah:7:9 @ I will bear the indignation of Yahweh, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my cause, and executes judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, [and] I will see his righteousness.

updv@Micah:7:10 @ Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, Where is Yahweh your God? My eyes will see [my desire] on her; now she will be trodden down as the mire of the streets.

updv@Micah:7:11 @ A day for building your walls! In that day the decree will be far removed.

updv@Micah:7:12 @ In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and [from] mountain to mountain.

updv@Micah:7:13 @ Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell in it, for the fruit of their doings.

updv@Micah:7:14 @ Shepherd your people with your rod, the flock of your heritage, which stay solitarily, in the forest in the midst of Carmel: let them pasture in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.

updv@Micah:7:15 @ As in the days of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt I will show him marvelous things.

updv@Micah:7:16 @ The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might; they will lay their hand on their mouth; their ears will be deaf.

updv@Micah:7:17 @ They will lick the dust like a serpent; like crawling things of the earth they will come trembling out of their close places; they will come with fear to Yahweh our God, and will be afraid because of you.

updv@Micah:7:18 @ Who is a God like you, that pardons iniquity, and passes over the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving-kindness.

updv@Micah:7:19 @ He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities under foot; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

updv@Micah:7:20 @ You will perform the truth to Jacob, [and] the loving-kindness to Abraham, which you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.

updv@Nahum:1:1 @ The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.

updv@Nahum:1:2 @ Yahweh is a jealous God and avenges; Yahweh avenges and is full of wrath; Yahweh takes vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserves [wrath] for his enemies.

updv@Nahum:1:3 @ Yahweh is slow to anger, and great in power, and will by no means leave unpunished [the guilty]: Yahweh has his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

updv@Nahum:1:4 @ He rebukes the sea, and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers: Bashan languishes, and Carmel; and the flower of Lebanon languishes.

updv@Nahum:1:5 @ The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt; and the earth arose at his presence, yes, the world, and all that dwell in it.

updv@Nahum:1:6 @ Who can stand before his indignation? And who can arise in the fierceness of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken apart by him.

updv@Nahum:1:7 @ Yahweh is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him.

updv@Nahum:1:8 @ But with an overrunning flood he will make a full end of her place, and will pursue his enemies into darkness.

updv@Nahum:1:9 @ What do you(note:){+}(:note) devise against Yahweh? He will make a full end; affliction will not rise up the second time.

updv@Nahum:1:10 @ For entangled like thorns, and drunk as with their drink, they are consumed completely as dry stubble.

updv@Nahum:1:11 @ One has gone forth out of you, that devises evil against Yahweh, that counsels wickedness.

updv@Nahum:1:12 @ Thus says Yahweh: Though they are in full strength, and likewise many, even so they will be cut down, and he will pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more.

updv@Nahum:1:13 @ And now I will break his yoke from off you, and will burst your bonds in sunder.

updv@Nahum:1:14 @ And Yahweh has given commandment concerning you, that no more of your name will be sown: out of the house of your gods I will cut off the graven image and the molten image; I will make your grave; for you have not measured up.

updv@Nahum:1:15 @ Look, on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news, that publishes peace! Keep your feasts, O Judah, perform your vows; for the wicked one will no more pass through you; he is completely cut off.

updv@Nahum:2:1 @ He who dashes in pieces has come up against you: keep the fortress, watch the way, make your loins strong, fortify your power mightily.

updv@Nahum:2:2 @ For Yahweh restores the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and destroyed their vine-branches.

updv@Nahum:2:3 @ The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots are blazing in the day of his preparation, and the cypress [spears] are brandished.

updv@Nahum:2:4 @ The chariots rage in the streets; they rush to and fro in the broad ways: the appearance of them is like torches; they run like the lightnings.

updv@Nahum:2:5 @ He remembers his nobles: they stumble in their march; they hurry to her wall, and the mantelet is prepared.

updv@Nahum:2:6 @ The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved.

updv@Nahum:2:7 @ And he is drawn up, she is uncovered, she is carried away; and her female slaves moan as with the voice of doves, beating on their breasts.

updv@Nahum:2:8 @ But Nineveh has been from of old like a pool of water: yet they flee away. Stand, stand, [they cry]; but none looks back.

updv@Nahum:2:9 @ Take(note:){+}(:note) the spoil of silver, take{+} the spoil of gold; for there is no end of the store, the glory of all goodly furniture.

updv@Nahum:2:10 @ She is empty, and void, and waste; and the heart melts, and the knees strike together, and anguish is in all loins, and the faces of them all are waxed pale.

updv@Nahum:2:11 @ Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding-place of the young lions, where the lion [and] the lioness walked, the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid?

updv@Nahum:2:12 @ The lion tore in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with prey, and his dens with ravin.

updv@Nahum:2:13 @ Look, I am against you, says Yahweh of hosts, and I will burn your crowd in the smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions; and I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers will be heard no more.

updv@Nahum:3:1 @ Woe to the bloody city! It is all full of lies and rapine; the prey does not depart.

updv@Nahum:3:2 @ The noise of the whip, and the noise of the rattling of wheels, and prancing horses, and bounding chariots,

updv@Nahum:3:3 @ the horseman mounting, and the flashing sword, and the glittering spear, and a multitude of slain, and a great heap of corpses, and there is no end of the bodies; they stumble on their bodies;--

updv@Nahum:3:4 @ because of the multitude of the prostitutions of the well-favored prostitute, the mistress of witchcrafts, that sells nations through her prostitutions, and families through her witchcrafts.

updv@Nahum:3:5 @ Look, I am against you, says Yahweh of hosts, and I will uncover your skirts on your face; and I will show the nations your nakedness, and the kingdoms your shame.

updv@Nahum:3:6 @ And I will cast detestable things on you, and make you vile, and will set you as a gazing-stock.

updv@Nahum:3:7 @ And it will come to pass, that all those who look at you will flee from you, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? From where shall I seek comforters for you?

updv@Nahum:3:8 @ Are you better than No-amon, that was situated among the rivers, that had the waters round about her; whose rampart was the sea, [and] her wall was more than the sea?

updv@Nahum:3:9 @ Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were your helpers.

updv@Nahum:3:10 @ Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity; her young children also were dashed in pieces at the head of all the streets; and they cast lots for her honorable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.

updv@Nahum:3:11 @ You also will be drunk; you will be hid; you also will seek a stronghold because of the enemy.

updv@Nahum:3:12 @ All your fortresses will be [like] fig-trees with the first-ripe figs: if they are shaken, they fall into the mouth of the eater.

updv@Nahum:3:13 @ Look, your people in the midst of you are women; the gates of your land are set wide open to your enemies: the fire has devoured your bars.

updv@Nahum:3:14 @ Draw yourself water for the siege; strengthen your fortresses; go into the clay, and tread the mortar; make strong the brickkiln.

updv@Nahum:3:15 @ There the fire will devour you; the sword will cut you off; it will devour you like the cankerworm: make yourself many as the cankerworm; make yourself many as the locust.

updv@Nahum:3:16 @ You have multiplied your merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm ravages, and flees away.

updv@Nahum:3:17 @ Your princes are as the locusts, and your marshals as the swarms of grasshoppers, which encamp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun rises they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.

updv@Nahum:3:18 @ Your shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria; your nobles stay at rest; your people are scattered on the mountains, and there is none to gather them.

updv@Nahum:3:19 @ There is no assuaging of your hurt: your wound is grievous: all who hear the report of you clap their hands over you; for on whom has not your wickedness passed continually?

updv@Habakkuk:1:1 @ The burden which Habakkuk the prophet saw.

updv@Habakkuk:1:2 @ O Yahweh, how long shall I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you of violence, and you will not save.

updv@Habakkuk:1:3 @ Why do you show me iniquity, and look at perverseness? For destruction and violence are before me; and there is strife, and contention rises up.

updv@Habakkuk:1:4 @ Therefore the law is slacked, and justice does never go forth; for the wicked circles about the righteous; therefore justice goes forth perverted.

updv@Habakkuk:1:5 @ Look(note:){+}(:note) among the nations, and see{+}, and wonder{+} marvelously; for a work is working in your{+} days, which you{+} will not believe though it is told you{+}.

updv@Habakkuk:1:6 @ For, look, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, that marches through the width of the earth, to possess dwelling-places that are not theirs.

updv@Habakkuk:1:7 @ They are terrible and awesome; their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.

updv@Habakkuk:1:8 @ Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves; and their horsemen press proudly on: and they ride from afar; they fly as an eagle that hurries to devour.

updv@Habakkuk:1:9 @ They come all of them for violence; the set of their faces is forwards; and they gather captives as the sand.

updv@Habakkuk:1:10 @ Yes, he scoffs at kings, and princes are a derision to him; he derides every stronghold; for he heaps up dust, and takes it.

updv@Habakkuk:1:11 @ Then he will sweep by [as] a wind, and will pass over, and be guilty, [even] he whose might is his god.

updv@Habakkuk:1:12 @ Are not you from everlasting, O Yahweh my God, my Holy One? We will not die. O Yahweh, you have appointed him for judgment; and you, O Rock, have established him for correction.

updv@Habakkuk:1:13 @ You who are of purer eyes than to look at evil, and who cannot look at perverseness, why do you look on betrayers, and hold your peace when the wicked swallows up the man who is more righteous than he;

updv@Habakkuk:1:14 @ and make man as the fish of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?

updv@Habakkuk:1:15 @ He takes up all of them with the angle, he catches them in his net, and gathers them in his drag: therefore he rejoices and is glad.

updv@Habakkuk:1:16 @ Therefore he sacrifices to his net, and burns incense to his drag; because by them his portion is fat, and his food plenteous.

updv@Habakkuk:1:17 @ Will he therefore draw his sword, and not spare to slay the nations continually?

updv@Habakkuk:2:1 @ I will stand on my watch, and set myself on the tower, and will look forth to see what he will speak with me, and what I will answer concerning my complaint.

updv@Habakkuk:2:2 @ And Yahweh answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain on tablets, that he may run that reads it.

updv@Habakkuk:2:3 @ For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it hurries toward the end, and will not lie: though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not delay.

updv@Habakkuk:2:4 @ Look, his soul is presumptuous, it is not upright in him; but the righteous will live by his faith.

updv@Habakkuk:2:5 @ And how much more arrogant is a betrayer, a haughty [able-bodied] man, that does not keep at home; who enlarges his desire as Sheol, and he is as death, and can't be satisfied, but gathers to himself all nations, and heaps to himself all peoples.

updv@Habakkuk:2:6 @ Will not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him who increases that which is not his! How long? And that loads himself with pledges!

updv@Habakkuk:2:7 @ Will they not rise up suddenly that will bite you, and awake that will vex you, and you will be for booty to them?

updv@Habakkuk:2:8 @ Because you have plundered many nations, all the remnant of the peoples will plunder you, because of man's blood, and for the violence done to the land, to the city and to all who dwell in it.

updv@Habakkuk:2:9 @ Woe to him who gets an evil gain for his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the hand of evil!

updv@Habakkuk:2:10 @ You have devised shame to your house, by cutting off many peoples, and have sinned against your soul.

updv@Habakkuk:2:11 @ For the stone will cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber will answer it.

updv@Habakkuk:2:12 @ Woe to him who builds a town with blood, and establishes a city by iniquity!

updv@Habakkuk:2:13 @ Look, is it not of Yahweh of hosts that the peoples labor for the fire, and the nations weary themselves for vanity?

updv@Habakkuk:2:14 @ For the earth will be filled with knowledge of the glory of Yahweh, as the waters cover the sea.

updv@Habakkuk:2:15 @ Woe to him who gives his fellow man drink, mixing your strong wine, and make him drunk also, that you may look at their nakedness!

updv@Habakkuk:2:16 @ You are filled with shame, and not glory: you also drink, and show your foreskin; the cup of Yahweh's right hand will come round to you, and foul shame will be on your glory.

updv@Habakkuk:2:17 @ For the violence done to Lebanon will cover you, and the destruction of the beasts, which will frighten you; because of man's blood, and for the violence done to the land, to the city and to all who dwell in it.

updv@Habakkuk:2:18 @ What does it profit the graven image, that its maker has graven it; the molten image, even the teacher of lies, that he who fashions its form trusts in it, to make mute idols?

updv@Habakkuk:3:1 @ A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, set to Shigionoth.

updv@Habakkuk:3:2 @ O Yahweh, I have heard the report of you, and am afraid: O Yahweh, revive your work in the midst of the years; In the midst of the years make it known; In wrath remember mercy.

updv@Habakkuk:3:3 @ God came from Teman, And the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, And the earth was full of his praise.

updv@Habakkuk:3:4 @ And [his] brightness was as the light; He had rays [coming forth] from his hand; And there was the hiding of his power.

updv@Habakkuk:3:5 @ Before him went the pestilence, And fiery bolts went forth at his feet.

updv@Habakkuk:3:6 @ He stood, and measured the earth; He looked, and drove apart the nations; And the eternal mountains were scattered; The everlasting hills bowed down; His goings were [as] of old.

updv@Habakkuk:3:7 @ I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction; The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.

updv@Habakkuk:3:8 @ Was Yahweh displeased with the rivers? Was your anger against the rivers, Or your wrath against the sea, That you rode on your horses, On your chariots of salvation?

updv@Habakkuk:3:9 @ Your bow was bared naked; By means of a word the arrows are assigned by oath. Selah. You split the earth with rivers.

updv@Habakkuk:3:10 @ The mountains saw you, and were afraid; The tempest of waters passed by; The deep uttered its voice, And lifted up its hands on high.

updv@Habakkuk:3:11 @ The sun and moon stood still in their habitation, At the light of your arrows as they went, At the shining of your glittering spear.

updv@Habakkuk:3:12 @ You marched though the land in indignation; You threshed the nations in anger.

updv@Habakkuk:3:13 @ You went forth for the salvation of your people, For the salvation of your anointed; You wounded the head out of the house of the wicked man, Laying bare the foundation even to the neck. Selah.

updv@Habakkuk:3:14 @ You pierced with his own staves the head of his warriors: They came as a whirlwind to scatter me; Their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly.

updv@Habakkuk:3:16 @ I heard, and my body trembled, My lips quivered at the voice; Rottenness enters into my bones, and I tremble in my place; Because I must wait quietly for the day of trouble, For the coming up of the people that invades us.

updv@Habakkuk:3:17 @ For though the fig-tree will not flourish, Neither will fruit be in the vines; The labor of the olive will fail, And the fields will yield no food; The flock will be cut off from the fold, And there will be no herd in the stalls:

updv@Zechariah:4:10 @ For who has despised the day of small things? For these seven will rejoice, and will see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel; [these are] the eyes of Yahweh, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

updv@Zechariah:4:11 @ Then I answered, and said to him, What are these two olive-trees on the right side of the lampstand and on the left side of it?

updv@Zechariah:4:12 @ And I answered the second time, and said to him, What are these two olive-branches, which are beside the two golden spouts, that empty the gold out of themselves?

updv@Zechariah:4:13 @ And he answered me and said, Don't you know what these are? And I said, No, my lord.

updv@Zechariah:4:14 @ Then he said, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

updv@Zechariah:5:1 @ Then again I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and saw a flying roll.

updv@Zechariah:5:2 @ And he said to me, What do you see? And I answered, I see a flying roll; its length is twenty cubits, and its width ten cubits.

updv@Zechariah:5:3 @ Then he said to me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole land: for according to this side [of the scroll], everyone who steals will be emptied; and according to the other side, everyone who swears will be emptied.

updv@Zechariah:5:4 @ I brought it out, says Yahweh of hosts, and it will enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who swears falsely by my name; and it will reside in the midst of his house, and will consume it with its timber and its stones.

updv@Zechariah:5:5 @ Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said to me, Lift up now your eyes, and see what this is that goes forth.

updv@Zechariah:5:6 @ And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goes forth. He said moreover, This is their desire in all the land

updv@Zechariah:5:7 @ (and, look, there was lifted up a talent of lead); and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.

updv@Zechariah:5:8 @ And he said, This is Wickedness: and he cast her down into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead on its mouth.

updv@Zechariah:5:9 @ Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and saw there came forth two women, and the wind was in their wings; now they had wings like the wings of a stork; and they lifted up the ephah between earth and heaven.

updv@Zechariah:5:10 @ Then I said to the angel that talked with me, Where do these bear the ephah?

updv@Zechariah:5:11 @ And he said to me, To build her a house in the land of Shinar: and when it is prepared, she will be set there in her own place.

updv@Zechariah:6:1 @ And again I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and saw four chariots come out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.

updv@Zechariah:6:2 @ In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;

updv@Zechariah:6:3 @ and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grizzled strong horses.

updv@Zechariah:6:4 @ Then I answered and said to the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?

updv@Zechariah:6:5 @ And the angel answered and said to me, These are the four winds of heaven, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.

updv@Zechariah:6:6 @ [The chariot] in which are the black horses goes forth toward the north country; and the white went forth after them; and the grizzled went forth toward the south country.

updv@Zechariah:6:7 @ And the strong went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Go(note:){+}(:note) from here, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.

updv@Zechariah:6:8 @ Then he cried to me, and spoke to me, saying, Look, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.

updv@Zechariah:6:9 @ And the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

updv@Zechariah:6:10 @ Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and you come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon;

updv@Zechariah:6:11 @ yes, take [of them] silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;

updv@Zechariah:6:12 @ and speak to him, saying, Thus speaks Yahweh of hosts, saying, Look, the man whose name is the Branch: and he will grow up out of his place; and he will build the temple of Yahweh;

updv@Zechariah:6:13 @ even he will build the temple of Yahweh; and he will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne; and he will be a priest on his throne; and the counsel of peace will be between them both.

updv@Zechariah:6:14 @ And the crowns will be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and for the kindness of the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:6:15 @ And those who are far off will come and build in the temple of Yahweh; and you(note:){+}(:note) will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you{+}. And [this] will come to pass, if you{+} will diligently obey the voice of Yahweh your{+} God.

updv@Zechariah:7:1 @ And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Darius, that the word of Yahweh came to Zechariah in the fourth [day] of the ninth month, even in Chislev.

updv@Zechariah:7:2 @ Now [they of] Beth-el had sent Sharezer and Regem-melech, and their men, to entreat the favor of Yahweh,

updv@Zechariah:7:3 @ [and] to speak to the priests of the house of Yahweh of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?

updv@Zechariah:7:4 @ Then the word of Yahweh of hosts came to me, saying,

updv@Zechariah:7:5 @ Speak to all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When you(note:){+}(:note) fasted and mourned in the fifth and in the seventh [month], even these seventy years, did you{+} at all fast to me, even to me?

updv@Zechariah:7:6 @ And when you(note:){+}(:note) eat, and when you{+} drink, don't you{+} eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves?

updv@Zechariah:7:7 @ [Should you(note:){+}(:note)] not [hear] the words which Yahweh cried out by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and her cities round about her, and the South and the lowland were inhabited?

updv@Zechariah:7:8 @ And the word of Yahweh came to Zechariah, saying,

updv@Zechariah:7:9 @ Thus has Yahweh of hosts spoken, saying, Execute true judgment, and show kindness and compassion every man to his brother;

updv@Zechariah:7:10 @ and don't oppress the widow, nor the fatherless, the sojourner, nor the poor; and let none of you(note:){+}(:note) devise evil against his brother in your{+} heart.

updv@Zechariah:7:11 @ But they refused to listen, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they might not hear.

updv@Zechariah:7:12 @ Yes, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which Yahweh of hosts had sent by his Spirit by the former prophets: therefore there came great wrath from Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Zechariah:7:13 @ And it has come to pass that, as he cried out, and they would not hear, so they will cry out, and I will not hear, said Yahweh of hosts;

updv@Zechariah:7:14 @ but I will scatter them with a whirlwind among all the nations which they have not known. Thus the land was desolate after them, so that no man passed through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant land desolate.

updv@Zechariah:8:1 @ And the word of Yahweh of hosts came [to me], saying,

updv@Zechariah:8:2 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath.

updv@Zechariah:8:3 @ Thus says Yahweh: I have returned to Zion, and will stay in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem will be called The city of truth; and the mountain of Yahweh of hosts, The holy mountain.

updv@Zechariah:8:4 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: There will yet dwell old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age.

updv@Zechariah:8:5 @ And the streets of the city will be full of boys and girls playing in its streets.

updv@Zechariah:8:6 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Zechariah:8:7 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: Look, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;

updv@Zechariah:8:8 @ and I will bring them, and they will stay in the midst of Jerusalem; and they will be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.

updv@Zechariah:8:9 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: Let your(note:){+}(:note) hands be strong, you{+} who hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets who were there in the day that the foundation of the house of Yahweh of hosts was laid, even the temple, that it might be built.

updv@Zechariah:8:10 @ For before those days there was no wage for man, nor any wage for beast; neither was there any peace to him who went out or came in, because of the adversary: for I set all of man, every man against his fellow man.

updv@Zechariah:8:11 @ But now I will not be to the remnant of this people as in the former days, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Zechariah:8:12 @ For [there will be] the seed of peace; the vine will give its fruit, and the ground will give its increase, and the heavens will give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.

updv@Zechariah:8:13 @ And it will come to pass that, as you(note:){+}(:note) were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you{+}, and you{+} will be a blessing. Don't be afraid, [but] let your{+} hands be strong.

updv@Zechariah:8:14 @ For this is what Yahweh of Hosts says: As I thought to do evil to you(note:){+}(:note), when your{+} fathers provoked me to wrath, says Yahweh of hosts, and I did not repent;

updv@Zechariah:8:15 @ so again I have thought in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: don't be(note:){+}(:note) afraid.

updv@Zechariah:8:16 @ These are the things that you(note:){+}(:note) will do: speak{+} every man the truth with his fellow man; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your{+} gates;

updv@Zechariah:8:17 @ and let none of you(note:){+}(:note) devise evil in your{+} hearts against his fellow man; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, says Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:8:18 @ And the word of Yahweh of hosts came to me, saying,

updv@Zechariah:8:19 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: The fast of the fourth [month], and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, will be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love truth and peace.

updv@Zechariah:8:20 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: [It will] yet [come to pass], that there will come peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities;

updv@Zechariah:8:21 @ and the inhabitants of one [city] will go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to entreat the favor of Yahweh, and to seek Yahweh of hosts: I will go also.

updv@Zechariah:8:22 @ Yes, many peoples and strong nations will come to seek Yahweh of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:8:23 @ Thus says Yahweh of hosts: In those days [it will come to pass], that ten men will take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, they will take hold of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, We will go with you(note:){+}(:note), for we have heard that God is with you{+}.

updv@Zechariah:9:1 @ The burden of the word of Yahweh on the land of Hadrach, and Damascus [will be] its resting-place (for the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is toward Yahweh);

updv@Zechariah:9:2 @ and Hamath, also, which borders on it; Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.

updv@Zechariah:9:3 @ And Tyre built herself a stronghold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

updv@Zechariah:9:4 @ Look, the Lord will dispossess her, and he will strike her power in the sea; and she will be devoured with fire.

updv@Zechariah:9:5 @ Ashkelon will see it, and fear; Gaza also, and will be very pained; and Ekron, for her expectation will be put to shame; and the king will perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.

updv@Zechariah:9:6 @ And a bastard will dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

updv@Zechariah:9:7 @ And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his detestable things from between his teeth; and he also will be a remnant for our God; and he will be as a chieftain in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.

updv@Zechariah:9:8 @ And I will encamp about my house against the army, that none pass through or return; and no oppressor will pass through them anymore: for now I have seen with my eyes.

updv@Zechariah:9:9 @ Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: look, your king comes to you; he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding on a donkey, even on a colt the son of a donkey.

updv@Zechariah:9:10 @ And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem; and the battle bow will be cut off; and he will speak peace to the nations: and his dominion will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.

updv@Zechariah:9:11 @ As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant I have set free your prisoners from the pit in which is no water.

updv@Zechariah:9:12 @ Turn(note:){+}(:note) to the stronghold, you{+} prisoners of hope: even today I declare that I will render double to you.

updv@Zechariah:9:13 @ For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece, and will make you as the sword of a mighty man.

updv@Zechariah:9:14 @ And Yahweh will be seen over them; and his arrow will go forth as the lightning; and the Sovereign Yahweh will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.

updv@Zechariah:9:15 @ Yahweh of hosts will defend them; and they will devour, and will tread down the sling-stones; and they will drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they will be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.

updv@Zechariah:9:16 @ And Yahweh their God will save them in that day as the flock of his people; for [they will be as] the stones of a crown, lifted on high over his land.

updv@Zechariah:9:17 @ For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Grain will make the young men flourish, and new wine the virgins.

updv@Zechariah:10:1 @ Ask(note:){+}(:note) of Yahweh rain in the time of the latter rain, [even of] Yahweh who makes lightnings; and he will give them showers of rain, to everyone grass in the field.

updv@Zechariah:10:2 @ For the talismans have spoken vanity, and the fortune-tellers have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams, they comfort in vain: therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.

updv@Zechariah:10:3 @ My anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Yahweh of hosts has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his goodly horse in the battle.

updv@Zechariah:10:4 @ From him will come forth the cornerstone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.

updv@Zechariah:10:5 @ And they will be as mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they will fight, because Yahweh is with them; and the riders on horses will be confounded.

updv@Zechariah:10:6 @ And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy on them; and they will be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Yahweh their God, and I will hear them.

updv@Zechariah:10:7 @ And [they of] Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as through wine; yes, their sons will see it, and rejoice; their heart will be glad in Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:10:8 @ I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they will increase as they have increased.

updv@Zechariah:10:9 @ And I will sow them among the peoples; and they will remember me in far countries; and they will raise their sons, and will return.

updv@Zechariah:10:10 @ I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and [place] will not be found for them.

updv@Zechariah:10:11 @ And he will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up; and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.

updv@Zechariah:10:12 @ And I will strengthen them in Yahweh; and they will walk up and down in his name, says Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:11:1 @ Open your doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.

updv@Zechariah:11:2 @ Wail, O fir-tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the goodly ones are destroyed: wail, O you(note:){+}(:note) oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.

updv@Zechariah:11:3 @ A voice of the wailing of the shepherds! For their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions! For the pride of the Jordan is laid waste.

updv@Zechariah:11:4 @ Thus Yahweh my God said: Shepherd the flock of slaughter;

updv@Zechariah:11:5 @ whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty; and those who sell them say, Blessed be Yahweh, for I am rich; and their own shepherds don't pity them.

updv@Zechariah:11:6 @ For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, says Yahweh; but, look, I will deliver man, every man into his fellow man's hand, and into the hand of his king; and they will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.

updv@Zechariah:11:7 @ So I shepherded the flock of slaughter, and the sheep-dealers. And I took to me two poles; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I shepherded the flock.

updv@Zechariah:11:8 @ And I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.

updv@Zechariah:11:9 @ Then I said, I will not shepherd you(note:){+}(:note): that which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those that are left eat every one the flesh of another.

updv@Zechariah:11:10 @ And I took my staff Beauty, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.

updv@Zechariah:11:11 @ And it was broken in that day; and the sheep-dealers that gave heed to me knew that it was the word of Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:11:12 @ And I said to them, If you(note:){+}(:note) think good, give me my wages; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my wages thirty [pieces] of silver.

updv@Zechariah:11:13 @ And Yahweh said to me, Cast it to the potter, the goodly price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty [pieces] of silver, and cast them to the potter, in the house of Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:11:14 @ Then I cut apart my other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

updv@Zechariah:11:15 @ And Yahweh said to me, Take to yourself yet again the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

updv@Zechariah:11:16 @ For, look, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those that are cut off, neither will seek that which remains behind, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat [sheep], and will tear their hoofs in pieces.

updv@Zechariah:11:17 @ Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaves the flock! The sword will be on his arm, and on his right eye: his arm will be clean dried up, and his right eye will be completely darkened.

updv@Zechariah:12:1 @ The burden of the word of Yahweh concerning Israel. [Thus] says Yahweh, who stretches forth the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man inside him:

updv@Zechariah:12:2 @ look, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the peoples round about, and on Judah also it will be in the siege against Jerusalem.

updv@Zechariah:12:3 @ And it will come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples; all who burden themselves with it will be critically wounded; and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.

updv@Zechariah:12:4 @ In that day, says Yahweh, I will strike every horse with terror, and his rider with madness; and I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.

updv@Zechariah:12:5 @ And the chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Yahweh of hosts their God.

updv@Zechariah:12:6 @ In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves; and they will devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and [they of] Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.

updv@Zechariah:12:7 @ Yahweh also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem will not magnify above Judah.

updv@Zechariah:12:8 @ In that day Yahweh will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and he who is feeble among them at that day will be as David; and the house of David will be as God, as the angel of Yahweh before them.

updv@Zechariah:12:9 @ And it will come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

updv@Zechariah:12:10 @ And I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they will look to me whom they have pierced; and they will mourn for him, as one mourns for his only son, and will be in bitterness for him, as one who is in bitterness for his firstborn.

updv@Zechariah:12:11 @ In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

updv@Zechariah:12:12 @ And the land will mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;

updv@Zechariah:12:13 @ the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;

updv@Zechariah:12:14 @ all the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

updv@Zechariah:13:1 @ In that day there will be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.

updv@Zechariah:13:2 @ And it will come to pass in that day, says Yahweh of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they will no more be remembered; and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

updv@Zechariah:13:3 @ And it will come to pass that, when any will yet prophesy, then his father and his mother who begot him will say to him, You will not live; for you speak lies in the name of Yahweh; and his father and his mother who begot him will thrust him through when he prophesies.

updv@Zechariah:13:4 @ And it will come to pass in that day, that the prophets will be ashamed every one of his vision, when he prophesies; neither will they wear a hairy mantle to deceive:

updv@Zechariah:13:5 @ but he will say, I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for man has acquired me from my youth.

updv@Zechariah:13:6 @ And one will say to him, What are these wounds between your arms? Then he will answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

updv@Zechariah:13:7 @ Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the [prominent] man who is my associate, says Yahweh of hosts: strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered; and I will turn my hand on the little ones.

updv@Zechariah:13:8 @ And it will come to pass, that in all the land, says Yahweh, two parts in it will be cut off and die; but the third will be left in it.

updv@Zechariah:13:9 @ And I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried. They will call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people; and they will say, Yahweh is my God.

updv@Zechariah:14:1 @ Look, a day of Yahweh comes, when your spoil will be divided in the midst of you.

updv@Zechariah:14:2 @ For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women raped; and half of the city will go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people will not be cut off from the city.

updv@Zechariah:14:3 @ Then will Yahweh go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

updv@Zechariah:14:4 @ And his feet will stand in that day on the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the mount of Olives will be divided in the midst of it toward the east and toward the west, [and there will be] a very great valley; and half of the mountain will remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

updv@Zechariah:14:5 @ And you(note:){+}(:note) will flee by the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you{+} will flee, like you{+} fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and Yahweh my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.

updv@Zechariah:14:6 @ And it will come to pass in that day, that there will not be light; the bright ones will withdraw themselves:

updv@Zechariah:14:17 @ And it will be, that whoever of [all] the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, on them there will be no rain.

updv@Zechariah:14:18 @ And if the family of Egypt does not go up, and does not come, will this not happen to them? This will be the plague with which Yahweh will strike the nations that don't go up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

updv@Zechariah:14:19 @ This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that don't go up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

updv@Zechariah:14:20 @ In that day there will be on the bells of the horses, HOLY TO YAHWEH; and the pots in Yahweh's house will be like the bowls before the altar.

updv@Zechariah:14:21 @ Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to Yahweh of hosts; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and boil in them: and in that day there will be no more a Canaanite in the house of Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:1:1 @ The burden of the word of Yahweh to Israel by Malachi.

updv@Malachi:1:2 @ I have loved you(note:){+}(:note), says Yahweh. Yet you{+} say, In what have you loved us? Wasn't Esau Jacob's brother, says Yahweh: yet I loved Jacob;

updv@Malachi:1:3 @ but Esau I hated, and made his mountains a desolation, and [gave] his heritage to the jackals of the wilderness.

updv@Malachi:1:4 @ Whereas Edom says, We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places; this is what Yahweh of Hosts says, They will build, but I will throw down; and men will call them The border of wickedness, and The people against whom Yahweh has indignation forever.

updv@Malachi:1:5 @ And your(note:){+}(:note) eyes will see, and you{+} will say, May Yahweh be magnified beyond the border of Israel.

updv@Malachi:1:6 @ A son honors his father, and a slave his master: if then I am a father, where is my honor? And if I am a master, where is my fear? says Yahweh of hosts to you(note:){+}(:note), O priests, that despise my name. And you{+} say, In what have we despised your name?

updv@Malachi:1:7 @ You(note:){+}(:note) offer polluted bread on my altar. And you{+} say, In what have we polluted you? In that you{+} say, The table of Yahweh is contemptible.

updv@Malachi:1:8 @ And when you(note:){+}(:note) offer the blind for sacrifice, it is no evil! And when you{+} offer the lame and sick, it is no evil! Present it now to your governor; will he be pleased with you? Or will he accept your person? says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:1:9 @ And now, I pray you(note:){+}(:note), entreat the favor of God, that he may be gracious to us: this has been by your{+} means: will he accept any of your{+} persons? says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:1:10 @ Oh that there were one among you(note:){+}(:note) who would shut the doors, that you{+} might not kindle [fire on] my altar in vain! I have no pleasure in you{+}, says Yahweh of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your{+} hand.

updv@Malachi:1:11 @ For from the rising of the sun even to the going down of the same my name [will be] great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense [will be] offered to my name, and a pure offering: for my name [will be] great among the Gentiles, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:1:12 @ But you(note:){+}(:note) profane it, in that you{+} say, The table of Yahweh is polluted, and its fruit, even its food, is contemptible.

updv@Malachi:1:13 @ You(note:){+}(:note) also say, Look, what a weariness it is! And you{+} have snuffed at it, says Yahweh of hosts; and you{+} have brought that which was taken by violence, and the lame, and the sick; thus you{+} bring the offering: should I accept this at your{+} hand? says Yahweh.

updv@Malachi:1:14 @ But cursed be the deceiver, who has in his flock a male, and vows, and sacrifices to the Lord a blemished thing; for I am a great King, says Yahweh of hosts, and my name is awesome among the Gentiles.

updv@Malachi:2:1 @ And now, O you(note:){+}(:note) priests, this commandment is for you{+}.

updv@Malachi:2:2 @ If you(note:){+}(:note) will not hear, and if you{+} will not lay it to heart, to give glory to my name, says Yahweh of hosts, then I will send the curse on you{+}, and I will curse your{+} blessings; yes, I have cursed them already, because you{+} don't lay it to heart.

updv@Malachi:2:3 @ Look, I will rebuke your(note:){+}(:note) seed, and will spread feces on your{+} faces, even the feces of your{+} feasts; and you{+} will be taken away with it.

updv@Malachi:2:4 @ And you(note:){+}(:note) will know that I have sent this commandment to you{+}, that my covenant may be with Levi, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:2:5 @ My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him that he might fear; and he feared me, and stood in awe of my name.

updv@Malachi:2:6 @ The law of truth was in his mouth, and unrighteousness was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and uprightness, and turned many away from iniquity.

updv@Malachi:2:7 @ For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth; for he is the messenger of Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:2:8 @ But you(note:){+}(:note) have turned aside out of the way; you{+} have caused many to stumble in the law; you{+} have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:2:9 @ Therefore I have also made you(note:){+}(:note) contemptible and base before all the people, according to as you{+} have not kept my ways, but have had respect of persons in the law.

updv@Malachi:2:10 @ Don't we all have one father? Has not one God created us? Why do we betray every man against his brother, profaning the covenant of our fathers?

updv@Malachi:2:11 @ Judah has betrayed, and a disgusting thing is done in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah has profaned the holiness of Yahweh which he loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god.

updv@Malachi:2:12 @ Yahweh will cut off, to the man who does this, him who wakes and him who answers, out of the tents of Jacob, and him who offers an offering to Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:2:13 @ And this again you(note:){+}(:note) do: you{+} cover the altar of Yahweh with tears, with weeping, and with sighing, insomuch that he does not regard the offering anymore, neither receives it with good will at your{+} hand.

updv@Malachi:2:14 @ Yet you(note:){+}(:note) say, Why? Because Yahweh has been witness between you and the wife of your youth, whom you have betrayed, though she is your partner, and the wife of your covenant.

updv@Malachi:2:15 @ And no one who does this has part of the Spirit remaining in him; neither is such a one seeking a godly seed. Therefore take heed(note:){+}(:note) to your{+} spirit; and do not betray the wife of your youth.

updv@Malachi:2:16 @ For he who hates, divorces, says Yahweh, the God of Israel, and he will cover his garment with violence, says Yahweh of hosts. Therefore take heed to your(note:){+}(:note) spirit, that you{+} do not betray [the wife of your youth].

updv@Malachi:2:17 @ You(note:){+}(:note) have wearied Yahweh with your{+} words. Yet you{+} say, In what have we wearied him? In that you{+} say, Everyone who does evil is good in the eyes of Yahweh, and he delights in them; or where is the God of justice?

updv@Malachi:3:1 @ Look, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom you(note:){+}(:note) seek, will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant, whom you{+} desire, look, he comes, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:3:2 @ But who can endure the day of his coming? And who will stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fuller's soap:

updv@Malachi:3:3 @ and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they will offer to Yahweh offerings in righteousness.

updv@Malachi:3:4 @ Then will the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant to Yahweh, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.

updv@Malachi:3:5 @ And I will come near to you(note:){+}(:note) to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the false swearers, and against those who unjustly reduce the wages of the hired worker, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the sojourner [from his right], and don't fear me, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:3:6 @ For I, Yahweh, don't change; therefore you(note:){+}(:note), O sons of Jacob, are not consumed.

updv@Malachi:3:7 @ From the days of your(note:){+}(:note) fathers you{+} have turned aside from my ordinances, and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you{+}, says Yahweh of hosts. But you{+} say, In what shall we return?

updv@Malachi:3:8 @ Will man rob God? Yet you(note:){+}(:note) rob me. But you{+} say, In what have we robbed you? In tithes and offerings.

updv@Malachi:3:9 @ You(note:){+}(:note) are cursed with the curse; for you{+} rob me, even this whole nation.

updv@Malachi:3:10 @ Bring(note:){+}(:note) the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and prove me now herewith, says Yahweh of hosts, if I will not open for you{+} the windows of heaven, and pour out a blessing for you{+}, that there will not be room enough [to receive it].

updv@Malachi:3:11 @ And I will rebuke the devourer for your(note:){+}(:note) sakes, and he will not destroy the fruits of your{+} ground; neither will your{+} vine cast its fruit before the time in the field, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:3:12 @ And all nations will call you(note:){+}(:note) happy; for you{+} will be a delightsome land, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:3:13 @ Your(note:){+}(:note) words have been stout against me, says Yahweh. Yet you{+} say, What have we spoken against you?

updv@Malachi:3:14 @ You(note:){+}(:note) have said, It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we have kept his charge, and that we have walked mournfully before Yahweh of hosts?

updv@Malachi:3:15 @ And now we call the proud happy; yes, those who work wickedness are built up; yes, they make trial of God, and escape.

updv@Malachi:3:16 @ Then those who feared Yahweh spoke one with another; and Yahweh listened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before him, for those who feared Yahweh, and that thought on his name.

updv@Malachi:3:17 @ And they will be mine, says Yahweh of hosts, [even] my own possession, in the day that I make; and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son who serves him.

updv@Malachi:3:18 @ Then you(note:){+}(:note) will return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God and him who does not serve him.

updv@Malachi:4:1 @ For, look, the day comes, it burns as a furnace; and all the proud, and all who work wickedness, will be stubble; and the day that comes will burn them up, says Yahweh of hosts, that it will leave them neither root nor branch.

updv@Malachi:4:2 @ But to you(note:){+}(:note) who fear my name the sun of righteousness will arise with healing in its wings; and you{+} will go forth, and leap as calves of the stall.

updv@Malachi:4:3 @ And you(note:){+}(:note) will tread down the wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your{+} feet in the day that I make, says Yahweh of hosts.

updv@Malachi:4:4 @ Remember(note:){+}(:note) the law of Moses my slave, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.

updv@Malachi:4:5 @ Look, I will send you(note:){+}(:note) Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of Yahweh comes.

updv@Malachi:4:6 @ And he will turn the heart of the fathers to the sons, and the heart of the sons to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the earth with a curse.
