Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel
will surely go into exile, away from their homeland.’”

will become a
prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters
will fall by the sword. Your land
will be divided by a measuring line, and you
yourself will die on pagan soil. And Israel
will surely go into exile, away from their homeland.’”

fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.

will faint from
thirst.

swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O
Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-

Dan,’ or, ‘As surely as the way of
Beersheba lives’— they
will fall, never to rise again.”

Smite the
lintel of the door, that the posts may
shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I

flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered.

shake.

flee will get away; none of the fugitives
will escape.

hire of an
harlot.

disaster can come upon us.”

heap of
rubble, and the temple mount a wooded ridge.

And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, 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 the law shall go forth of
Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
And many nations
will come and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He

rebuke strong nations
afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

will assemble the outcast, even those whom I have
afflicted.

will make her that
halted a
remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign over them in mount
Zion from henceforth, even for ever.

will make the
lame into a
remnant, and the outcast into a strong nation. Then the LORD
will rule over them in Mount
Zion from that day and
forever.

will raise against it seven
shepherds, even eight leaders of men.

will deliver us when Assyria invades our land and marches into our borders.
And the
remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a
dew from the LORD, as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.
Then the
remnant of Jacob
will be in the midst of many peoples like
dew from the LORD, like showers on the grass, which do not wait for man or
linger for mankind.
And the
remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
Then the
remnant of Jacob
will be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among flocks of sheep, which tramples and tears as it passes through, with no one to
rescue them.
Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine
adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.
Your hand will be lifted over your foes, and all your enemies will be cut off.
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that I
will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I
will destroy thy
chariots:
“In that day,” declares the LORD, “I
will remove your horses from among you and
wreck your
chariots.
And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:
I
will remove the cities of your land and
tear down all your strongholds.
And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers:
I
will cut the
sorceries from your hand, and you
will have no fortune-tellers.
