And I saw, when for all the causes whereby
backsliding Israel committed
adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of
divorce; yet her
treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the
harlot also.

adultery, I gave her a
certificate of
divorce and sent her away. Yet that unfaithful sister Judah had no fear and

whoredom, that she
defiled the land, and committed
adultery with stones and with stocks.

treacherous sister Judah hath not turned unto me with her whole heart, but
feignedly, saith the LORD.

trees: they shall
impoverish thy
fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.

consume your sons and daughters; they will eat up your flocks and herds; they will feed on your vines and fig
trees. With the sword they will destroy the fortified cities in which you trust.”

tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof
toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they
roar, yet can they not pass over it?

tremble before Me, the One who set the sand as the boundary for the sea, an
enduring barrier it cannot cross? The waves
surge, but they cannot prevail. They
roar but cannot cross it.

quenched.

fury will be poured out on this place, on man and beast, on the
trees of the field and the produce of the land, and it will burn and not be
extinguished.

consume them, saith the LORD: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig
tree, and the leaf shall
fade; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.

lodging place of
wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of
treacherous men.

abandon my people and depart from them, for they are all adulterers, a crowd of faithless people.
For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a
tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the
workman, with the
axe.

tree from the forest; it is shaped with a
chisel by the hands of a
craftsman.
They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.
Like scarecrows in a
cucumber patch, their idols cannot speak. They must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not fear them, for they can do no
harm, and neither can they do any good.”

Righteous art thou, O LORD, when I
plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore
doth the way of the wicked
prosper? wherefore are all they happy that deal very
treacherously?
Righteous are You, O LORD, when I
plead before You. Yet about Your judgments I wish to
contend with You: Why does the way of the wicked
prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease?
For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt
treacherously with thee;
yea, they have called a multitude after thee: believe them not, though they speak fair words unto thee.
Even your brothers— your own father’s household— even they have
betrayed you; even they have
cried aloud against you. Do not trust them, though they speak well of you.

drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

tree planted by the waters that sends out its roots toward the stream. It does not fear when the heat comes, and its leaves are always green. It does not
worry in a year of
drought, nor does it cease to produce fruit.
O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this
potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the
potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

potter treats his clay? Just like clay in the
potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel.

shake; I am like a
drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his

habitation. He will
roar loudly over His pasture; like those who
tread the grapes, He will call out with a
shout against all the inhabitants of the earth.

procure unto it.

renown, joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I do for it. They will
tremble in
awe because of all the goodness and prosperity that I will provide for it.

trees.

adversaries saw her, and did
mock at her sabbaths.
In the days of her
affliction and wandering Jerusalem remembers all the
treasures that were hers in days of old. When her people fell into enemy hands she received no help. Her enemies looked upon her,

adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things: for she hath seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary, whom thou
didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.

adversary has seized all her
treasures. For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary— those You had forbidden to enter Your assembly.

sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to
relieve the soul: see, O LORD, and consider; for I am become
vile.
All her people
groan as they search for bread. They have traded their
treasures for food to keep themselves alive. Look, O LORD, and consider, for I have become
despised.

nurtured? Should priests and prophets be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?

defile My
treasured place. Violent men will enter it, and they will
defile it.

Son of man, eat thy bread with
quaking, and drink thy water with
trembling and with carefulness;
Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by
trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:

Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
“Son of man, how does the wood of the vine
surpass any other branch among the
trees in the forest?

desolate, because they have committed a
trespass, saith the Lord GOD.

willow tree.

willow.

snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will

trespass that he hath
trespassed against me.

trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high
tree, have
exalted the low
tree, have dried up the green
tree, and have made the dry
tree to
flourish: I the LORD have brought down the high
tree, have
exalted the low
tree, have dried up the green
tree, and have made the dry
tree to
flourish: I the LORD have spoken and have done it.
Then all the
trees of the field will know that I am the LORD. I bring the tall
tree down and make the low
tree tall. I dry up the green
tree and make the
withered tree flourish. I, the LORD, have spoken, and I have done it.’”
But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his
trespass that he hath
trespassed, and in his sin that he hath
sinned, in them shall he die.
But if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and practices iniquity,
committing the same abominations as the wicked, will he live? None of the righteous acts he did will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness and sin he has committed, he will die.

blasphemed me, in that they have committed a
trespass against me.

blasphemed Me by their unfaithfulness against Me.
For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick
trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the
provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.

swore to give them and they saw any high hill or
leafy tree, there they offered their sacrifices, presented offerings that
provoked Me, sent up their
fragrant incense, and poured out their drink offerings.

Say to the forest of the Negev: Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Lord GOD says: I am about to
ignite in you a fire, and it will

trees, both green and dry. The

quenched, and by it every face from south to north will be
scorched.

sore slaughter; it is
furbished that it may
glitter: should we then make

lightning! Should we
rejoice in the
scepter of My son? The sword despises every such stick.

oppressed.

roaring lion
ravening the prey; they have
devoured souls; they have taken the
treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.

tearing its prey. They

hatefully, and shall take away all thy labour, and shall leave thee naked and bare: and the nakedness of thy whoredoms shall be discovered, both thy
lewdness and thy whoredoms.

prostitution will be exposed. Your

trample all your streets. He will slaughter your people with the sword, and your mighty pillars will fall to the ground.
Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and lay away their robes, and put off their

tremble at every moment, and be

fir trees of Senir: they have taken cedars from
Lebanon to make masts for thee.

amassed gold and silver for your
treasuries.

pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any
grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that
despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

pricking brier or a painful
thorn from all around them who
treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.’

yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that
despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
And there they will dwell securely, build houses, and plant vineyards. They will dwell securely when I
execute judgments against all those around them who
treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.’”
The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field.
The waters made it grow; the deep springs made it tall, directing their streams all around its base and sending their channels to all the trees of the field.
Therefore his height was
exalted above all the
trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth.
Therefore it towered higher than all the trees of the field. Its branches multiplied, and its boughs grew long as it spread them out because of the abundant waters.
The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the
fir trees were not like his boughs, and the
chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any
tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.
The cedars in the garden of God could not rival it; the
cypresses could not compare with its branches, nor the plane
trees match its boughs. No
tree in the garden of God could compare with its beauty.
I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the
trees of
Eden, that were in the garden of God,
envied him.
I made it beautiful with its many branches, the
envy of all the
trees of
Eden, which were in the garden of God.’
To the end that none of all the
trees by the waters
exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their
trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the
nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
This happened so that no other
trees by the waters would become great in height and set their tops among the clouds, and no other well-watered
trees would reach them in height. For they have all been
consigned to death, to the depths of the earth, among the mortals who descend to the Pit.’
Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a
mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused
Lebanon to
mourn for him, and all the
trees of the field
fainted for him.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘On the day it was brought down to
Sheol, I caused
mourning. I covered the deep because of it; I held back its rivers; its abundant waters were restrained. I made
Lebanon mourn for it, and all the
trees of the field
fainted because of it.
I made the nations to
shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to
hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the
trees of
Eden, the choice and best of
Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the
nether parts of the earth.
I made the nations
quake at the sound of its
downfall, when I cast it down to
Sheol with those who descend to the Pit. Then all the
trees of
Eden, the choicest and best of
Lebanon, all the well-watered
trees, were
consoled in the earth below.
To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the
trees of
Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the
trees of
Eden unto the
nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the
uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
Who then is like you in glory and greatness among the
trees of
Eden? You also will be brought down to the depths of the earth to be with the
trees of
Eden. You will lie among the
uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord GOD.’”
Yea, I will make many people
amazed at thee, and their kings shall be
horribly afraid for thee, when I shall
brandish my sword before them; and they shall
tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of thy fall.
I will cause many peoples to be
appalled over you, and their kings will
shudder in
horror because of you when I
brandish My sword before them. On the day of your
downfall each of them will
tremble every moment for his life.’
Seemeth it a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must
tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures? and to have
drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet?
Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you also
trample the rest of the pasture with your feet? Is it not enough for you to drink the clear waters? Must you also
muddy the rest with your feet?
