H8085
Hear
H1697
you the word
H834
which
H3068
the LORD
H1696
speaks
H1004
to you, O house
H3478
of Israel:
2
H3541
Thus
H559
said
H3068
the LORD,
H3925
Learn
H1870
not the way
H1471
of the heathen,
H2865
and be not dismayed
H226
at the signs
H8064
of heaven;
H1471
for the heathen
H2865
are dismayed at them.
3
H2708
For the customs
H5971
of the people
H1892
are vain:
H3772
for one cuts
H6086
a tree
H3293
out of the forest,
H4639
the work
H3027
of the hands
H2796
of the workman,
H4621
with the ax.
4
H3302
They deck
H3701
it with silver
H2091
and with gold;
H2388
they fasten
H4548
it with nails
H4717
and with hammers,
H6328
that it move not.
5
H4749
They are upright
H8560
as the palm
H1696
tree, but speak
H5375
not: they must needs be borne,
H3588
because
H3808
they cannot
H6805
go.
H3372
Be not afraid
H3808
of them; for they cannot
H7489
do evil,
H1571
neither
H369
H1571
also
H3190
is it in them to do good.
6
H369
For as much as there is none
H3644
like
H3068
to you, O LORD;
H1419
you are great,
H8034
and your name
H1419
is great
H1369
in might.
7
H4310
Who
H3372
would not fear
H4428
you, O King
H1471
of nations?
H2969
for to you does it appertain:
H3605
for as much as among all
H2450
the wise
H1471
men of the nations,
H3605
and in all
H4467
their kingdoms,
H369
there is none
H3644
like to you.
8
H259
But they are altogether
H1197
brutish
H3688
and foolish:
H6086
the stock
H4148
is a doctrine
H1892
of vanities.
9
H3701
Silver
H7554
spread
H935
into plates is brought
H8659
from Tarshish,
H2091
and gold
H210
from Uphaz,
H4639
the work
H2796
of the workman,
H3027
and of the hands
H6884
of the founder:
H8504
blue
H713
and purple
H3830
is their clothing:
H3605
they are all
H4639
the work
H2450
of cunning men.
10
H3068
But the LORD
H571
is the true
H430
God,
H2416
he is the living
H430
God,
H5769
and an everlasting
H4428
king:
H7110
at his wrath
H776
the earth
H7493
shall tremble,
H1471
and the nations
H3201
shall not be able
H3557
to abide
H2195
his indignation.
11
H1836
Thus
H560
shall you say
H426
to them, The gods
H5648
that have not made
H8065
the heavens
H778
and the earth,
H7
even they shall perish
H772
from the earth,
H8460
and from under
H429
these
H8065
heavens.
12
H6213
He has made
H776
the earth
H3581
by his power,
H3559
he has established
H8398
the world
H2451
by his wisdom,
H5186
and has stretched
H8064
out the heavens
H8394
by his discretion.
13
H5414
When he utters
H6963
his voice,
H1995
there is a multitude
H4325
of waters
H8064
in the heavens,
H5387
and he causes the vapors
H5927
to ascend
H7097
from the ends
H776
of the earth;
H6213
he makes
H1300
lightning
H4306
with rain,
H3318
and brings
H3318
forth
H7307
the wind
H214
out of his treasures.
14
H3605
Every
H120
man
H1197
is brutish
H1847
in his knowledge:
H3605
every
H6884
founder
H3001
is confounded
H6459
by the graven
H6459
image:
H5262
for his molten
H8267
image is falsehood,
H3808
and there is no
H7307
breath in them.
15
H1892
They are vanity,
H4639
and the work
H8595
of errors:
H6256
in the time
H6486
of their visitation
H6
they shall perish.
16
H2506
The portion
H3290
of Jacob
H3335
is not like them: for he is the former
H3605
of all
H3478
things; and Israel
H7626
is the rod
H5159
of his inheritance:
H3068
The LORD
H6635
of hosts
H8034
is his name.
18
H3541
For thus
H559
said
H3068
the LORD,
H2005
Behold,
H7049
I will sling
H3427
out the inhabitants
H776
of the land
H2063
at this
H6471
once,
H6887
and will distress
H4672
them, that they may find it so.
19
H188
Woe
H7667
is me for my hurt!
H4347
my wound
H2470
is grievous;
H559
but I said,
H389
Truly
H2088
this
H2483
is a grief,
H5375
and I must bear it.
20
H168
My tabernacle
H7703
is spoiled,
H3605
and all
H4340
my cords
H5423
are broken:
H1121
my children
H3318
are gone
H3318
forth
H369
of me, and they are not: there is none
H5186
to stretch
H168
forth my tent
H5750
any more,
H6965
and to set
H3407
up my curtains.
21
H7462
For the pastors
H1197
are become
H1197
brutish,
H1875
and have not sought
H3068
the LORD:
H5921
therefore
H3651
H7919
they shall not prosper,
H3605
and all
H4830
their flocks
H6327
shall be scattered.
22
H2009
Behold,
H6963
the noise
H8052
of the bruit
H935
is come,
H1419
and a great
H7494
commotion
H6828
out of the north
H776
country,
H7760
to make
H5892
the cities
H3063
of Judah
H8077
desolate,
H4583
and a den
H8577
of dragons.
23
H3068
O LORD,
H3045
I know
H1870
that the way
H120
of man
H1980
is not in himself: it is not in man that walks
H3559
to direct
H6806
his steps.
