⁹ And how wilt thou turn back the face of one prefect of the servants of my lord, the smallest of them, aid trust for thee upon Egypt for chariot and for horsemen I

⁴⁴ Behold, as a lion he will come up from the excellency of Jordan to the habitation of strength: for I will wink; I will cause them to run away from her: and who the chosen I shall appoint to her? for who like me? and who shall arraign me? and who that shepherd who shall stand before me? ⁴⁵ For this, hear ye the counsel of Jehovah which he counseled against Babel; and his purposes which he purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: if the last of the flock shall not drag them out: if he shall not lay waste the habitation upon them.

² Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because thy heart was lifted up, and thou wilt say, I am God, I sat upon the seat of God in the heart of the seas; and thou art man and not God, and thou wilt give thy heart as the heart of God. ³ Behold thee wise above Daniel; not any thing hidden was hidden to thee: ⁴ With thy wisdom and with thy understanding thou madest to thee wealth, and thou wilt make gold and silver in thy treasures. ⁵ By the multitude of thy wisdom, by thy traffic thou didst multiply thy wealth, and thine heart will be lifted up in thy wealth. ⁶ For this, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy giving thy heart as the heart of God;

¹² Son of man, lift up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Thou didst seal up the measure full of wisdom and complete of beauty. ¹³ Thou wert in Eden the garden of God: every precious stone thy covering, the ruby, the topaz, the onyx, the chrysolite, the sardonyx and the jasper, the sapphire, the carbuncle and the emerald, and gold: the work of thy drums and thy pipes were prepared in thee in the day of thy being created. ¹⁴ Thou the cherub of expansion covering; and I gave thee: thou wert in the holy mountain of God; thou walkedst about in the midst of the stones of fire. ¹⁵ Thou shalt be perfected in thy ways from the day of thy being created even till iniquity was found in thee. ¹⁶ In the multitude of thy traffic they filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou wilt sin: and I shall profane thee from the mountain of God, and destroying thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. ¹⁷ Thine heart was lifted up with thy beauty, thou didst corrupt thy wisdom on account of thy splendor: I cast thee upon the earth, I gave thee before kings to look upon thee. ¹⁸ From the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic, thou didst profane my holy places; and I will bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall consume thee, and I will give thee for ashes upon the earth before the eyes of all seeing thee.

⁸ Therefore in one day shall her blows come, death, and grief, and famine; and she shall be burned down in fire: for strong the Lord God judging her.

²¹ Proving contempt upon nobles, and he slackened the girdle of the strong.

¹¹ Scatter the overflowings of thine anger, and see every proud one and bring him low. ¹² See every proud one, and humble him; and crush the unjust in their place.

⁴⁰ He poured out contempt upon the nobles, and he will cause them to wander in a waste of not a way.

¹¹ The lofty eyes of man were humbled, and the height of men bowed down, and Jehovah alone was exalted in that day.

¹⁷ And the haughtiness of man was bowed down, and the height of man was humbled: and Jehovah alone was exalted in that day.

¹³ For this my people were carried into exile from not knowing; and their honor, men of famine, and their multitude dry with thirst

¹⁵ And man shall bow down, and man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the haughty shall be humbled. ¹⁶ And Jehovah of armies shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God consecrated in justice.

¹⁵ The old man and they lifting up faces, he the head; and the prophet teaching falsehood, be the tail.

³³ Behold the Lord Jehovah of armies dividing the bough with sudden violence: and the high of stature hewn down, and the lofty shall be humbled.

¹¹ And I appointed evil over the habitable globe, and upon the unjust their iniquity; and I caused to cease the pride of the arrogant, and I will humble the pride of the terrible.

²⁴ Jehovah of armies sware, saying, If not as I purposed thus it was, and as I counseled, this shall stand:

²⁷ For Jehovah of armies counseled and who shall bring to nought? and his hand was stretched out, and who shall turn it back?

¹⁰ Announcing the last part from the beginning, and from of old what was not done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my delight: ¹¹ Calling a ravenous beast from the sunrising, from a land afar off a man of my counsel: also I spake, also I will bring it; I formed, also I will do it.

⁶ Alas, thou sword of Jehovah, till when wilt thou rest? be gathered to thy sheath; be quiet and be still. ⁷ How shalt thou rest, and Jehovah commanded to it against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there he confirmed it.

⁶² And thou saidst, O Jehovah, thou spakest against this place, to cut it off, for none to be dwelling in it, to man and even to beast, for it shall be desolations forever.

³⁷ Now I Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and honor to the king of the heavens, that all his works are truth, and his paths judgment: and that they going about in pride, he being able to bring low.

¹ For behold, the day coming, burning as a furnace; and all the proud and all doing injustice were straw: and the day coming burnt them, said Jehovah of armies, that it shall not leave to them root and branch.

²⁸ To do what thy hands and thy counsel predestinated to be.

²⁶ For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many powerful, not, many well born: ²⁷ But the foolish things of the world, has God chosen that he might shame the wise; and the weak things of the world has God chosen that he might shame things strong; ²⁸ And the ignoble things of the world, and the despised things, has God chosen, and things not being, that the things being he might leave unemployed: ²⁹ That no flesh might boast before him.

¹¹ In whom also we were cast by lot, determined beforehand according to the purpose of him performing all things according to the counsel of his will:

¹¹ According to the purpose of times immemorial which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord:

⁶ And he gives greater grace. Wherefore he says, God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

²⁰ And Saul will hasten and fall with the fulness of his stature to the earth, and he will fear greatly from the words of Samuel: also strength was not in him, for he ate not bread all the day and all the night

³² God girding me with strength, and he will give my way blameless.

¹⁴ Wail, ye ships of Tarshish: your strength was laid waste.

⁶ From the daughter of Zion all her decoration went forth: her chiefs were as rams; they found not feed, and they went without strength before him pursuing.

²² And I overturned the throne of kingdoms, and I destroyed the strength of the kingdoms of the nations; and I overturned the chariot and those riding it; and the horses and their horsemen came down, a man by the sword of his brother.

⁶ For yet Christ, we being weak, Recording to the time died for the impious.

²⁵ And he will say, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be to his brethren.

¹⁵ And Caanan will beget Sidon, his first-born, and Heth, ¹⁶ And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite, ¹⁷ And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite, ¹⁸ And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward the families of the Catiaanites were dispersed. ¹⁹ And the bound of the Canaanite shall be from Sidon in thy coming to Gerar, to Azzah; in thy coming to Sodom and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even to Lasha.

²¹ And Moses will stretch forth his hand over the sea, and Jehovah will cause the sea to go by a strong east wind all the night; and he will set the sea for dry land, and the waters will be rent

⁸ And by the spirit of thine anger the waters shook them off, the flowings stood up as a heap: the depths were contracted in the heart of the sea. ⁹ The enemy said, I will pursue, I will enclose, I will divide the spoil: my soul shall be filled with them: I will draw out my sword, my hand shall dispossess them. ¹⁰ Thou didst blow with thy spirit; the sea covered them: they rolled down as lead in the great waters.

⁶ Nations raged, kingdoms were moved: he gave with his voice, the earth will melt

³ Be thou to me for a rock of refuge to come always: thou didst command to save me, for thou my rock and my fortress.

¹⁹ And they shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the caverns of the dust, from the face of the fear of Jehovah, and from the splendor of his majesty in his rising to terrify the earth.

⁶ Against a polluted nation will I send him, and upon a people of my outpouring will I command him to spoil a spoil and to plunder a plunder, and to set them a treading down as the clay of the streets.

¹⁶ They seeing thee shall look upon thee, they shall attend to thee. This the man moving the earth, shaking kingdoms: ¹⁷ Setting the habitable globe as a desert, and destroying its cities: for his bound opening not the house.

³ On many waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river her produce; and she shall be the emporium of nations.

² For thou didst set from a city to a heap, a fortified city to ruins: a palace of strangers from a city; it shall not be built forever.

⁷ How shalt thou rest, and Jehovah commanded to it against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there he confirmed it.

¹⁰ From the abundance of is horses, their dust will cover thee: from the voice of the horseman, and the wheel, and the chariot, thy walls shall shake, in his coming in to thy gates, as the enterings of a city rent asunder.

¹⁵ Thus said the Lord Jehovah to Tyre: Shall not islands shake from the voice of thy fall, in the cry of the wounded, in the slaying of the slain in the midst of thee? ¹⁶ And all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and they removed their robes, and they shall put off the garments of their vanegations: they shall put on tremblings; they sat upon the earth and trembled at the moments, and were astonished at thee. ¹⁷ And they lifted up for thee a lamentation, and they said to thee, How wart thou destroyed being inhabited from the seas, the celebrated city which was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants who gave their terrors to all her inhabitants. ¹⁸ Now shall the idles tremble the day of thy fall; and the isles which are in the sea loathed from thy going forth. ¹⁹ For thus said the Lord Jehovah: I measured thee a city being desolated as the cities which were not inhabited; in my bringing up the deep upon thee, and many waters covered thee.

³⁴ The time thou wert broken from the seas in the depths of the waters, thy traffic and all thy convocation fell in the midst of thee. ³⁵ All the inhabitants of the isles were astonished at thee, and their kings shuddering, shuddered; the faces were moved.

¹⁶ From the voice of his fall I caused the nations to tremble, in my causing him to go down to hades with those going down to the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and good of Lebanon, all drinking water and they shall be comforted in the earth underneath.

⁷ Canaan in his hand, the balances of deceit: he loved to oppress. ⁸ And Ephraim will say, Surely I became rich, I found to me wealth: all my labors shall not be found to me iniquity which was sin.

¹⁴ And Jehovah commanded concerning thee, of thy name no more shall be sown: from the house of thy God I will cut off the carved image and the molten image: I will set thy grave, for thou wert contemned.

⁷ And I shook all nations, and the desire of all nations came; and I filled this house with glory, said Jehovah of armies.

²¹ And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah was holiness to Jehovah of armies: and all sacrificing came and took of them, and boiled in them: and the Canaanite shall be no more in the house of Jehovah in that day.

¹⁷ And he taught, saying to them, Has it not been written, That my house shall be called the house of prayer to all nations and ye made it a den of robbers.

¹⁶ And he said to those selling doves, Take away these things hence; make not the house of my Father a house of merchandise.

¹³ Zebulon shall dwell by the coast of the sea; and he by a coast of ships, and the extremities, even to Zidon.

⁶⁴ And Jehovah scattered thee among all peoples from the end of the earth even to the end of the earth; and thou servedst there other gods which thou knewest not, thou and thy fathers, wood and stone. ⁶⁵ And among these nations thou shalt not rest, and there shall not be rest to the sole of thy foot: and Jehovah gave to thee there a trembling heart and a wasting away of the eyes, and a faintnesss of soul. ⁶⁶ And thy lives were hung before thee; and thou wert afraid night and day, and thou shalt not trust to thy life ⁶⁷ In the morning thou shalt say, Who shall give evening? and in the evening thou shalt say, Who shall give morning? from the feat of thy heart which thou shalt fear, and from the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

⁸ And Jehovah will give them into the hand of Israel, and they will smite them, and they will pursue them, even to great Zidon, and even to Misrephoth-Maim, and even to the valley of Mizpeh from the sunrising; and he will smite them till none was left to them escaping.

⁷ This to you the exulting from the days of old, her beginning; her feet shall fail her sojourning from far off.

²² This the word that Jehovah spake concerning him: The virgin daughter of Zion despising to thee, deriding to thee; the daughter of Jerusalem shook her head after thee.

¹ Come down and sit upon the dust, thou virgin daughter of Babel, sit upon the earth: no throne, thou daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt not be added for them to call thee tender and delicate.

¹⁷ And say to them this word: Mine eyes shall bring down tears night and day, and they shall not rest: for the virgin daughter of my people was broken with a great breaking, a very sickly wound.

¹¹ Go up to Gilead, and take balsam, O virgin daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou bring up many healings; none to thee.

³ Judah was carried away captive from affliction, and from the greatness of her serving: she dwelt in the nations, she found no rest: all pursuing her overtook her between straitnesses.

¹⁵ Jehovah contemned all my mighty ones in my midst: he called an appointment upon me to break my chosen ones: Jehovah trod the wine-press to the virgin, the daughter of Judah.

¹⁵ Remove the unclean one, call to them; remove, remove, ye shall not touch: for they were laid waste; they were shaken, say ye, among the nations: they shall not add to sojourn.

¹³ And I caused the noise of thy songs to cease and the voice of thy harps shall no more be heard. ¹⁴ And I gave thee for a dry rock thou Shalt be a spreading of nets; thou shalt no more be built: for I Jehovah spake, says the Lord Jehovah.

⁶ The oaks of Bashan they made thine oars; the house of the Ashurites made thy desk of ivory from the isles of Chittim.

²² And the voice of harp players, and musicians, and flute players, and trumpeters, should be heard in thee no more; and every artist of every art be found no more in thee; and the voice of the millstone should be heard no more in thee;

¹⁴ And the name of the third river, Hiddekel, that going forth east of Assyria. And the fourth river, Euphrates.

¹⁰ And the beginning of his kingdom shall be Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. ¹¹ From that land shall come forth Asshur, and shall build Nineveh, and the city Reheboth, and Calah,

⁹ Therefore its name was called confusion, for there Jehovah confounded the lip of all the earth: and from thence Jehovah dispersed them over the face of all the earth.

²⁸ And Haran will die at the face of Terah his father in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldees.

³¹ And Terah will take Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran, his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and they shall come forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to move to the land of Canaan and they will come to Haran, and will dwell there.

²⁴ And the king of Assur will come from Babel and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and sepharvaim, and he will set in the cities of Shomeron instead of the sons of Israel: and they will possess Shomeron and dwell in her cities.

¹² In that time Berodach-Baladan son of Baladan, king of Babel, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he heard that Hezekiah was sick.

¹¹ And Jehovah will bring upon them the chiefs of the army which were to the king of Assur, and they will take Manasseh with hooks, and they will bind him with fetters and cause him to go to Babel.

⁹ Then Rehum lord of judment, and Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their colleagues, the Danites and the Apharsathchites, the Tarpelites, the Apharsites, the Archevites, the Babelites, the Susanchites, the Dehavites, the Elamites, ¹⁰ And the rest of the nations that the great and honored Asnapper carried into exile, and he caused them to dwell in the cities of Shomeron, and the rest beyond the river, and thus.

¹⁷ This one yet speaking, and this came, and he will say, The Chaldeans set three heads, and they invaded upon the camels, and they will take them, and they struck the young men with the mouth of the sword; and I shall escape, only I alone, to announce to thee.

⁹ Inhabitants of the desert shall bow before him, and his enemies shall lick the dust

⁵ Wo to Assur the rod of mine anger, and that rod in their hand, my wrath.

⁷ And he will not thus purpose, and his heart will not reckon thus; for in his heart to destroy and to cut off nations not few.

¹⁹ And Babel the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' grandeur was as God overthrowing Sodom and Gomorrah.

⁷ For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Behold me bringing upon Tyre Nebuchadezzar king of Babel, from the north, a king of kings, with horse and with chariot, and with horsemen, and a convocation, and much people. ⁸ Thy daughters in the field he shall slay with the sword: and he gave a watch-tower against thee, and he threw up a mound against thee, and lifted up the buckler against thee. ⁹ And he will give the stroke of his front against thy walls, and with his sword he will tear down thy towers. ¹⁰ From the abundance of is horses, their dust will cover thee: from the voice of the horseman, and the wheel, and the chariot, thy walls shall shake, in his coming in to thy gates, as the enterings of a city rent asunder. ¹¹ With the hoofs of his horses he will tread down all thy streets: he will slay thy people with the sword, and the garrisons of thy strength shall go down to the earth. ¹² And they spoiled thy strength and they plundered thy traffic, and they pulled down thy walls, and they will tear down thy houses of desire, and they will set thy stones and thy woods and thy dust in the midst of the water. ¹³ And I caused the noise of thy songs to cease and the voice of thy harps shall no more be heard. ¹⁴ And I gave thee for a dry rock thou Shalt be a spreading of nets; thou shalt no more be built: for I Jehovah spake, says the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁸ Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head being made bald, and every shoulder made smooth: and wages were not to him and to his army from Tyre for the service that he served against her.

³⁰ The king answered and said, Is not this great Babel, that I built it for the house of the kingdom by the strength of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?

⁶ For behold me raising up the Chaldeans, the nation bitter and hasty, going upon the wide places of the land to possess the dwelling not to him.

⁴ Then having come out of the land of the Chaldeans, he dwelt in Charran: and thence, after his father died, he transplanted him into this land, in which ye now dwell.

¹ The burden of Tyre. Wail, ye ships of Tarshish, for it was laid waste from a house from going in: from the land of Chittim it was uncovered to them.

⁶ Pass ye through Tarshish; wail, ye inhabitants of the isle.

²⁵ The ships of Tarshish celebrating thee in thy traffic; and thou wilt be filled and honored greatly in the heart of the sea. ²⁶ Thy rower brought thee into many waters: the wind of the east broke thee in the heart of the seas. ²⁷ Thy riches and thy markets, thy traffic, thy seamen, and thy shipmen, they making strong thy breach, and they trafficking thy traffic, and all the men of thy war that are in thee, and in all thy convocation which is in the midst of thee, they shall fall into the heart of the sea, in the day of thy fall. ²⁸ At the voice of the cry of thy shipmen, the areas shall shake. ²⁹ All holding the oars, the seamen and the shipmen of the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand upon the earth. ³⁰ And with their voice they shall cause to be heard against thee, and they shall cry with bitterness, and they shall bring up dust upon their heads, and they shall roll themselves in ashes.

¹¹ And the wholesale merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for their cargo will none purchase more: ¹² The cargo of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all fir wood, and every ivory vessel, and every vessel of precious wood, and of iron, and brass, and marble, ¹³ And cinnamon, and perfumes, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and the finest wheat flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and of souls of men, ¹⁴ And the harvest fruit of the eager desire of thy soul departed from thee, and all fat and brilliant things departed from thee, and thou shouldest find them no more. ¹⁵ The wholesale merchants of these things, having been rich from her, shall stand from far off for fear of her torture, weeping and mourning, ¹⁶ And saying, Woe, woe, the great city, surrounded with fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! for in one hour was so great riches laid waste.

⁹ Behold me sending, and I took all the families of the north, says Jehovah, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel, my servant, and I brought them against this land and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and I devoted them to destruction, and I set them for a desolation and for a hissing, and for perpetual wastes.

³ And send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the sons of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of messengers coming to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah; ⁴ And command them to say to their lords, Thus said Jehovah of armies God of Israel: Thus shall ye say to your lords: ⁵ I made the earth, the man and the cattle which are upon the face of the earth, by my great power and by mine arm stretched forth, and I gave it to whom was right in mine eyes. ⁶ And now I gave all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel, my servant; and also the beasts of the field gave I to him to serve him. ⁷ And all the nations served him, and his son, and his son's son, even till the time itself also of his land came: and many nations and great kings served upon him.

¹⁰ For thus said Jehovah, That according to the filling up to Babel of seventy years I will review you and lift up to you my good word to turn you back to this place.

²⁵ The ships of Tarshish celebrating thee in thy traffic; and thou wilt be filled and honored greatly in the heart of the sea.

¹¹ The foot of man shall not pass through it, and the foot of cattle shall not pass through it, and it shall not be inhabited forty years.

¹⁴ And to him was given dominion, power and honor, and a kingdom; and all peoples and nations and tongues shall serve to him: his power an eternal power that shall not pass away, and his kingdom which shall not be destroyed.

²¹ And the hairy he goat, the king of Grecia: and the great horn which is between his eyes, he the first king.

¹⁵ And I gave to her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she was humbled there as the days of her youth and as the days of her coming up out of the land of Egypt

¹⁰ And there are seven kings: five fell, and one is; the other has not yet come; and when he should come, he must remain a little.

¹⁰ And behold, a woman to his meeting, the attire of a harlot, and hidden of heart ¹¹ She being noisy and perverse; her feet will not dwell in her house: ¹² One time without, one time in the broad ways; and she will lie in wait near every corner.

¹⁴ All loving thee forgat thee; they will not seek thee; for I struck thee the blow of an enemy, the correction of the cruel one, for the multitude of thine iniquity; thy sins were strong.

¹⁸ Thou shalt not bring the hire of a harlot, and the price of a dog to the house of Jehovah thy God, for any vow: for these two are also an abomination to Jehovah thy God.

²⁶ And thou wilt commit fornication with the sons of Egypt thy neighbors, great of flesh: and thou wilt multiply thy fornications to irritate me.

³¹ In thy building thy brothel in the head of every way, and thou madest thy height in every street; and thou wert not as a harlot to scorn a gift

¹³ And behold, I struck my hand at thy plunder which thou madest, and at thy blood which was in the midst of thee.

⁶ The oaks of Bashan they made thine oars; the house of the Ashurites made thy desk of ivory from the isles of Chittim. ⁷ Fine linen with variegation from Egypt was thy spreading forth to be to thee for a signal; cerulean purple, and reddish purple, from the isles of Elisha was thy covering.

⁷ And all her carved images shall be beaten down, and all her gifts shall be burnt in fire, and all her images I will set a desolation: for she gathered from the gift of a harlot, and they shall turn back even to the gift of a harlot

¹¹ Her heads will judge for a gift, and her priests will teach for hire, and her prophets will divine for silver: and they will lean upon Jehovah, saying, Is not Jehovah in the midst of us? he will not bring evil upon us.

⁴ From the multitude of the fornications of the fair harlot, the beauty of the mistress of sorceries, selling the nations by her fornication, and families by her sorceries

⁷ And the region was for the remnant of the house of Judah; upon them they shall feed: in the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down in the evening: for Jehovah their God shall review them, and turn back their captivity.

¹⁴ Simeon related how God first reviewed to take from the nations a people for his name.

³ Not intoxicated, not a quarrelsome person, not occupied in sordid gain; but equitable, without fighting, exempt from avarice;

⁸ Deacons likewise grave, not speaking equivocally, not holding to much wine, not occupied in sordid gain;

² Tend the flock of God which among you, inspecting, not by force, but voluntarily; neither occupied in sordid gain, but of a ready will;

¹ And one of the seven angels having the seven vials, came and spake with me, saying to me, Come; I will show thee the judgment of the great harlot sitting upon many waters: ² With whom the kings of the earth were debauched, and they dwelling upon the earth were intoxicated from the wine of her harlotry. ³ And he brought me away in the spirit into the desert: and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet wild beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. ⁴ And the woman surrounded with purple and scarlet, and covered with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and the impurity of her harlotry: ⁵ And upon her forehead a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, MOTHER OF HARLOTS, AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

⁹ And weep for her, and lament over her, shall the kings of the earth having been debauched with her, and having led an insolent life, when they see the smoke of her burning, ¹⁰ Standing from far off for fear of her torture, saying, Woe, woe, the great city Babylon, the strong city! for in one hour thy judgment came. ¹¹ And the wholesale merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for their cargo will none purchase more: ¹² The cargo of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all fir wood, and every ivory vessel, and every vessel of precious wood, and of iron, and brass, and marble, ¹³ And cinnamon, and perfumes, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and the finest wheat flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and of souls of men, ¹⁴ And the harvest fruit of the eager desire of thy soul departed from thee, and all fat and brilliant things departed from thee, and thou shouldest find them no more.

² For true and just his judgments: for he judged the great harlot, who corrupted the earth with her harlotry, and he avenged the blood of his servants from her hand.

³⁶ And make a plate of pure gold, and engrave upon it the engravings of a seal, HOLINESS TO JEHOVAH.

¹⁸ But before Jehovah thy God thou shalt eat it, in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose in it, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy servant, and thy maid, and the Levite which is in thy gates: and rejoice thou before Jehovah thy God in all the stretching forth of thy hand. ¹⁹ Watch to thyself lest thou, shalt forsake the Levite all thy days upon the earth.

¹² When thou shalt finish to tithe all the tenth part of thy produce, in the third year the year of the tenth part, and thou gavest it to the Levite and to the stranger and to the orphan and to the widow, and they ate in thy gates and were satisfied. ¹³ And thou saidst before Jehovah thy God, I took away the holy thing from the house, and also I gave it to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the orphan and to the widow, according to all thy commands which thou didst command me: I passed not by from thy command, and I did not forget ¹⁴ I ate not from it in my mourning, and I took not away from it in uncleanness, and I gave not from it to the dead: I heard to the voice of Jehovah my God, I did according to all thou didst command me.

⁷ And now send to me a man wise to work in gold and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and cerulean purple, and knowing to engrave engravings with the wise which are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, which David my father prepared. ⁸ And send to me cedar trees and cypresses, and algum trees from Lebanon: for I knew that thy servants are knowing to cut trees of Lebanon; and behold, my servants with thy servants, ⁹ And to prepare for me woods for multitude: for the house that I build is great and wonderful.

¹¹ And Huram king of Tyre will say in writing, and he will send to Solomon, In Jehovah's loving his people he gave thee king over them. ¹² And Huram will say, Praised be Jehovah God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, who gave to David the king a wise son, knowing intelligence and understanding, who will build a house to Jehovah, and a house for his kingdom. ¹³ And now I sent a wise man knowing understanding to Huram my father, ¹⁴ The son of a woman from the daughters of Dan, and his father a man of Tyre knowing to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stones, and in woods, in purple, in cerulean purple, and in byssus, and in crimson; and to engrave every engraving, and to invent every work of art which shall be given to him, with thy wise ones, and the wise of my lord David thy father. ¹⁵ And now the wheat and the bailey and the oil and the wine which my lord said he will send to his servants; ¹⁶ And we will cut woods from Lebanon, according to all thy need: and we will bring them to thee in floats upon the sea of Joppa; and thou shalt bring them up to Jerusalem.

¹² And the daughter of the rock with a gift; and the rich of the people shall supplicate thy face.

¹⁰ The kings of Tarshish and the islands shall turn back a gift, the kings of Sheba and Seba shall bring a present

⁹ Honor Jehovah from thy substance, and from the first-fruits of all thy produce. ¹⁰ And thy storehouses shall be filled with abundance, and thy wine-vats shall break forth with new wine.

²² The good shall cause his sons' sons to inherit: and the wealth of him sinning was treasured up for the just.

⁸ He increasing by interest and usury, he shall gather it for him compassionating the poor.

²⁶ For to a man good before his face, he gave wisdom and knowledge and gladness: and to him sinning, he gave labor, to gather and to heap up, to give to the good one before the face of God. Also this is vanity and the striving of the spirit.

⁵ Then thou shalt see and flow together, and thy heart shall fear and be enlarged; for the multitude of the sea shall turn to thee, the strength of the nations shall come to thee. ⁶ An abundance of camels shall cover thee, the young camels of Midian and Ephah; all they from Seba shall come: they shall lift up gold and frankincense; they shall announce good news, the praises of Jehovah. ⁷ All the sheep of Kedar shall be gathered together to thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall serve thee: they shall go up for acceptance to mine altar and I will adorn the house of my glory. ⁸ Who are these? they will fly as a cloud, and as doves to their lattices. ⁹ For the islands shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish among the first to bring thy sons from far off, their silver and their gold with them, to the name of Jehovah thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he honored thee.

¹³ Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will set thy horn iron, and thy hoofs of brass: and thou didst crush many peoples: and I devoted their plunder to Jehovah, and their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.

²⁰ In that day shall be upon the bells of the horse, Holiness to Jehovah; and it was the pots in the house of Jehovah as vases before the face of the altar. ²¹ And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah was holiness to Jehovah of armies: and all sacrificing came and took of them, and boiled in them: and the Canaanite shall be no more in the house of Jehovah in that day.

¹⁰ Bring ye all the tenths to the house of treasure, and food shall be in my house, and try me now in this, said Jehovah of armies, if I will not open to you the lattices of the heavens, and empty out to you a blessing, even is it not a sufficiency.

¹⁹ Treasure not up to you treasures upon earth, where moth and gnawing destroy, and thieves dig through and steal: ²⁰ But treasure to you treasures in heaven, where neither moth, nor gnawing destroy; and where thieves dig not through, nor steal. ²¹ For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

³⁵ For I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me to drink: I was a stranger, and ye brought me in: ³⁶ Naked, and ye put around me: I was sick, and ye reviewed me: I was in prison, and ye came to me. ³⁷ Then shall the just answer him saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, and nourished or thirsting, and gave to drink ³⁸ And when saw we thee a stranger, and brought in or naked, and put around ³⁹ And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came to thee? ⁴⁰ And the king having answered, will say to them, Trull I say to you, Inasmuch as ye did to one of the least of my brethren, ye did to me.

⁸ And from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, having heard what he did, came to him.

³ And Joanna wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who served him from possessions to them.

¹⁸ And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my stores, and build greater; and there will I collect all my produce and my good things. ¹⁹ And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years; rest, eat, drink, be gladdened. ²⁰ And God said to him, O foolish one, this night they require thy soul from thee: and what thou hast prepared, to whom shall it be?

³³ Sell your possessions, and give alms; make to yourselves purses not growing old, an inexhaustible treasure in the heavens, where the thief approaches not, nor moth corrupts.

⁹ And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of injustice; that, when ye fail, they might receive you into lasting tents. ¹⁰ He faithful in the least, is also faithful in much: and he unjust in the least, is also unjust in much. ¹¹ If therefore ye were not faithful in the unjust mammon, who shall trust to you the true? ¹² And if ye were not faithful with another, who shall give you your own? ¹³ No servant can serve two lords: for he will either hate one, and love the other; or he will hold firmly to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

³⁹ And Peter having risen came with them. Whom having approached, they brought into the upper room: and all the widows stood before him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, being with them.

³ And having been shown Cyprus, and left it at the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and were conveyed to Tyre: for thither was the ship discharging the lading. ⁴ And having found disciples, we remained there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem. ⁵ And it was when we accomplished the days, having come out we went; all sending us forward, with wives and children, even to without the city: and having placed the knees upon the seashore, we prayed.

²⁵ And now I go to Jerusalem serving the holy ones. ²⁶ For Macedonia and Achaia were contented a certain mutual participation be made for the poor of the holy ones in Jerusalem. ²⁷ For they were contented; and they are their debtors. For if the nations have participated in their spiritual things, they ought also to serve them in things pertaining to the flesh.

⁶ Let him being taught the word participate with him teaching in all good things.

¹⁷ Not that I covet a gift: but I covet fruit abounding to your word. ¹⁸ And I have all, and abound: I have been filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things from you, a smell of sweet odor, a sacrifice acceptable, pleasing to God.
