1: WoeH1945 to the crownH5850 of pride,H1348 to the drunkardsH7910 of Ephraim,H0669 and a flower,H6731 fadingH5034 gloriousH6643 Whose beauty [is]H8597 which [is]H0834 atH5921 the headH7218 of the valleysH1516 verdantH8081 to those who are overcomeH1986 with wine!H3196

2: behold,H2009 has a mightyH2389 and strong one,H0533 the LordH0136 Like a tempestH2230 of hailH1259 and a storm,H8178 destroyingH6986 Like a floodH2230 of watersH4325 mightyH3524 overflowing,H7857 who will bring [them] downH3240 to the earthH0776 with [His] hand.H3027

3: Underfoot.H7272 Will be trampledH7429 the crownH5850 of pride,H1348 the drunkardsH7910 of Ephraim,H0669

4: and isH1961 a flower,H6733 fadingH5034 gloriousH6643 the beauty,H8597 which [is]H0834 atH5921 the headH7218 of the valley,H1516 verdantH8081 Like the first fruitH1061 beforeH2962 the summer-H7019 whichH0834 an observerH7200 sees,H7200 -H0853 while it is stillH5750 in his handH3709 He eats it up.H1104

5: In dayH3117 thatH1931 will beH1961 YahwehH3068 of hostsH6635 for a crownH5850 of glory,H6643 and a diademH6843 of beauty,H8597 to the remnantH7605 of His people,H5971

6: for a spiritH7307 of justiceH4941 to him who sitsH3427 inH5921 judgment,H4941 and for strengthH1369 to those who turn backH7725 the battleH4421 at the gate.H8179

7: But alsoH1571 theseH0428 through wine,H3196 have erredH7686 and through intoxicating drinkH7941 are out of the way-H8582 the priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 have erredH7686 through intoxicating drink,H7941 they are swallowed upH1104 byH4480 wine,H3196 they are out of the wayH8582 throughH4480 intoxicating drink-H7941 they errH7686 in vision,H7203 they stumbleH6328 [in] judgment.H6417

8: ForH3588 allH3605 tablesH7979 are fullH4390 of vomitH6892 [and] filth,H6675 NoH1097 place [is clean].H4725

9: -H0853 WhomH4310 will he teachH3384 knowledge?H1844 andH0853 whomH4310 will he make to understandH0995 the message?H8052 Those [just] weanedH1580 from milk,H2461 Those [just] drawnH6267 from the breasts.H7699

10: ForH3588 precept [must be]H6673 upon precept,H6673 preceptH6673 upon precept-H6673 LineH6957 upon line,H6957 lineH6957 upon line-H6957 a little,H2191 HereH8033 a little-H2191 there.H8033

11: ForH3588 with stammeringH3934 lipsH8193 and tongueH3956 anotherH0312 He will speakH1696 toH0413 peopleH5971 this.H2088

12: WhomH0834 He said,H0559 to whomH0413 this [is]H2063 the restH4496 [with which] You may cause to rest-H5117 the wearyH5889 and this [is]H2063 the refreshing,H4774 and yet notH3808 they wouldH0014 hear.H8085

13: But wasH1961 to themH1992 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3068 PreceptH6673 upon precept,H6673 preceptH6673 upon precept-H6673 LineH6957 upon line,H6957 lineH6957 upon line-H6957 a little,H2191 HereH8033 a little-H2191 thereH8033 thatH4616 they might go,H1980 and fallH3782 backward,H0268 and be broken,H7665 and snared,H3369 and caught.H3920

14: ThereforeH3651 hearH8085 the wordH1697 of Yahweh,H3068 you men,H0376 scornfulH3944 who ruleH4910 peopleH5971 thisH2088 who [are]H0834 in Jerusalem.H3389

15: BecauseH3588 you have said,H0559 we have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 withH0854 death,H4194 and withH5973 SheolH7585 we areH6213 in agreement-H2374 the scourgeH7885 overflowingH7752 whenH3588 passes through,H5674 notH3808 it will come to usH0935 forH3588 we have madeH7760 liesH3577 our refuge,H4268 and under falsehoodH8267 have we hidden ourselves-H5641

16: thereforeH3651 thusH3541 saysH0559 the LordH0136 GOD,H3069 beholdH2005 I lay for a foundationH3245 in ZionH6726 a stone,H0068 a stone,H0068 triedH0976 a cornerstoneH6438 preciousH3368 a foundation,H4143 sureH3245 Whoever believesH0539 notH3808 will act hastily.H2363

17: And I will makeH7760 justiceH4941 the measuring line,H6957 and righteousnessH6666 the plummet-H4949 and will sweep awayH3261 the hailH1259 the refugeH4268 of lies,H3577 and the hiding placeH5643 the watersH4325 will overflow.H7857

18: And will be annulled,H3722 your covenantH1285 withH0854 deathH4194 and Your agreementH2380 withH0854 SheolH7585 notH3808 will stand-H6965 the scourgeH7752 overflowingH7857 whenH3588 passes through,H5674 then you will beH1961 trampled down.H4823

19: As often asH1767 it goes outH5674 it will takeH3947 youH0853 forH3588 morningH1242 by morningH1242 it will pass over,H5674 and by dayH3117 and by night,H3915 and it will beH1961 onlyH7535 a terrorH2113 just to understandH0995 the report.H8052

20: ForH3588 is shortH7114 the bedH4702 to stretch out [on]H8311 and the coveringH4541 so narrowH6887 that one cannot wrap himself [in it].H3664

21: ForH3588 as [at] MountH2022 PerazimH6559 will rise upH6965 YahwehH3068 as in the ValleyH6010 of Gibeon,H1391 He will be angryH7264 that He may doH6213 His work,H4639 awesomeH2114 His work-H4639 and bring to passH5647 His act,H5656 unusualH5237 His act.H5656

22: Therefore nowH6258 notH0408 do be mockers,H3887 lestH6435 be made strong-H2388 your bondsH4147 forH3588 a destruction,H3617 and even determinedH2782 I have heardH8085 fromH0853 the LordH0136 GODH3068 of hostsH6635 uponH5921 allH3605 the earth.H0776

23: Give ear,H0238 and hearH8085 my voice-H6963 Listen,H7181 and hearH8085 my speech.H0565

24: Does allH3605 dayH3117 the plowmanH2790 keep plowingH2790 to sow?H2232 Does he keep turningH6605 and breaking the clodsH7702 his soil?H0127

25: Does notH3808 whenH0518 he has leveledH7737 its surfaceH6440 and he sowH6327 the black cummin,H7100 and the cummin,H3646 scatterH2236 and PlantH7760 the wheatH2406 in rowsH7795 and the barleyH8184 in the appointed placeH5567 and the speltH3698 in its place?H1367

26: for He instructs himH3256 in [right] judgment,H4941 His GodH0430 teaches him.H3384

27: ForH3588 notH3808 with a threshing sledge,H2742 is threshedH1758 the black cumminH7100 nor wheelH0212 of a cartH5699 overH5921 the cummin-H3646 is rolledH5437 butH3588 with a stick,H4294 is beaten outH2251 the black cumminH7100 and the cumminH3646 with a rod.H7626

28: Bread [flour]H3899 must be ground-H1854 thereforeH3588 notH3808 foreverH5331 the mantleH0156 he does thresh itH1758 and Break [it]H2000 with]H1536 his cartwheel,H5699 and [with] his horsemenH6571 OrH3808 crush it.H1854

29: AlsoH1571 thisH2063 fromH5973 YahwehH3068 of hosts,H6635 comesH3318 [Who] is wonderfulH6381 in counsel,H6098 [and] excellentH1431 in guidance.H8454
