Ariel, even all that fight against her and her
munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
All the many nations going out to battle against
Ariel— even all who war against her, laying siege and attacking her—
will be like a dream, like a vision in the night,
It shall even be as when an
hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a
thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is
faint, and his soul hath
appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount
Zion.

hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still
hungry; as when a
thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens
faint and
parched. So
will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount
Zion.

scroll. If it is handed to someone to read, he
will say, “I cannot, because it is sealed.”

will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their
prudent men shall be
hid.

will vanish, and the intelligence of the intelligent
will be hidden.”

will be cut down—

will,
heaping up sin upon sin.

The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and
anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the
viper and
fiery flying serpent, they
will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young
asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
This is the burden against the beasts of the Negev: Through a land of

lioness and lion, of
viper and flying serpent, they carry their wealth on the backs of
donkeys and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people of no profit to them.

forever and ever.

rebellious people,
deceitful children, children unwilling to obey the LORD’s instruction.

spare: so that there shall not be found in the

flee: and, We

adversity, and the water of
affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:

will see Him.

defile also the covering of thy
graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy
molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a

will throw them away like
menstrual cloths, saying to them, “Be gone!”

solemnity is kept; and
gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.

will rejoice like one who walks to the music of a
flute, going up to the mountain of the LORD, to the Rock of Israel.
And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall
shew the lighting down of his arm, with the
indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a
devouring fire, with
scattering, and
tempest, and hailstones.

will cause His
majestic voice to be heard and His mighty arm to be revealed, striking in

For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which
smote with a rod.
For Assyria
will be
shattered at the voice of the LORD; He
will strike them with His
scepter.
And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of
shaking will he fight with it.
And with every stroke of the rod of punishment that the LORD brings down on them, the tambourines and lyres
will sound as He battles with weapons
brandished.

disaster; He does not call back His words. He
will rise up against the house of the wicked and against the allies of evildoers.

holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.

will stumble, and the one he helps
will fall; both

For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion
roaring on his prey, when a multitude of
shepherds is called forth against him, he
will not be afraid of their voice, nor
abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount
Zion, and for the hill thereof.
For this is what the LORD has said to me: “Like a lion
roaring or a young lion over its prey— and though a band of
shepherds is called out against it, it is not
terrified by their
shouting or subdued by their
clamor— so the LORD of Hosts
will come down to do battle on Mount
Zion and its heights.
As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it.

Zion, whose furnace is in Jerusalem.
Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment.

And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a
covert from the
tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a
weary land.

arid land.
And the eyes of them that see shall not be
dim, and the ears of them that hear shall
hearken.

will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear
will listen.
The heart also of the
rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
No longer
will a
fool be called noble, nor a
scoundrel be respected.

vile person

villany, and his heart
will work iniquity, to
practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the
hungry, and he
will cause the drink of the
thirsty to fail.
Many days and years shall ye be troubled, ye careless women: for the

grape harvest
will fail and the fruit harvest
will not arrive.
Because the palaces shall be
forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild
asses, a pasture of flocks;
Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
until the Spirit is poured out upon us from on high. Then the desert
will be an
orchard, and the
orchard will seem like a forest.
Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field.
Then justice will inhabit the wilderness, and righteousness will dwell in the fertile field.
And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
The work of righteousness
will be peace; the service of righteousness
will be quiet confidence
forever.
And my people shall dwell in a peaceable
habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;
Then my people will dwell in a peaceful place, in safe and secure places of rest.
When it shall
hail, coming down on the forest; and the city shall be low in a low place.
But
hail will level the forest, and the city
will sink to the depths.
Woe to you, O destroyer never destroyed, O
traitor never
betrayed! When you have finished destroying, you
will be destroyed. When you have finished
betraying, you
will be
betrayed.
And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his
treasure.

will be the sure foundation for your times, a
storehouse of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge. The fear of the LORD is
Zion’s
treasure.
Now
will I rise, saith the LORD; now
will I be
exalted; now
will I lift up myself.
“Now I
will arise,” says the LORD. “Now I
will lift Myself up. Now I
will be
exalted.
Ye shall conceive
chaff, ye shall bring forth
stubble: your breath, as fire, shall
devour you.
And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
The peoples
will be burned to ashes, like thorns cut down and set
ablaze.
He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.
he
will dwell on the heights; the mountain fortress
will be his refuge; his food
will be provided and his water
assured.
Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
Your eyes
will see the King in His beauty and behold a land that stretches
afar.
Thine heart shall
meditate terror. Where is the
scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?
Your mind
will ponder the former terror: “Where is he who
tallies? Where is he who weighs? Where is he who counts the towers?”
Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a
stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.
You
will no longer see the
insolent, a people whose speech is unintelligible, who
stammer in a language you cannot understand.
Look upon
Zion, the city of our
solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet
habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.

Zion, the city of our appointed feasts. Your eyes
will see Jerusalem, a peaceful pasture, a tent that does not
wander; its tent pegs
will not be pulled up, nor
will any of its cords be broken.

will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no
galley with oars, neither shall
gallant ship pass thereby.

galley with oars
will row, and no
majestic vessel
will pass.

lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he
will save us.

lawgiver, the LORD is our King. It is He who
will save us.
Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well
strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great
spoil divided; the
lame take the prey.

slack; they cannot secure the mast or spread the sail. Then an abundance of spoils
will be divided, and even the
lame will carry off
plunder.
And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be
forgiven their iniquity.
And no resident of
Zion will say, “I am sick.” The people who dwell there
will be
forgiven of iniquity.
For the
indignation of the LORD is upon all nations, and his
fury upon all their armies: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter.

angry with all the nations and
furious with all their armies. He
will devote them to destruction; He
will give them over to slaughter.
Their slain also shall be cast out, and their
stink shall come up out of their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
Their slain
will be left unburied, and the
stench of their corpses
will rise; the mountains
will flow with their blood.
And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a
scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.

will be dissolved. The
skies will be rolled up like a
scroll, and all their stars
will fall like
withered leaves from the vine, like foliage from the fig tree.
For my sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon
Idumea, and upon the people of my
curse, to judgment.

drunk its fill in the heavens, then it
will come down upon
Edom, upon the people I have devoted to destruction.
And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be
soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.

will fall with them, the young bulls with the strong ones. Their land
will be
drenched with blood, and their soil
will be
soaked with fat.

brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.

will be turned to tar, and her soil to sulfur; her land
will become a
blazing pitch.
It shall not be
quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.

will not be
quenched—day or night. Its smoke
will ascend forever. From generation to generation it
will lie
desolate; no one
will ever again pass through it.
But the
cormorant and the
bittern shall possess it; the
owl also and the
raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion, and the stones of
emptiness.
The desert
owl and
screech owl will possess it, and the great
owl and
raven will dwell in it. The LORD
will stretch out over
Edom a measuring line of
chaos and a
plumb line of destruction.

will come to nothing.

nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an
habitation of
dragons, and a court for owls.
Her towers
will be overgrown with thorns, her fortresses with thistles and briers. She
will become a
haunt for jackals, an abode for ostriches.
The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the
satyr shall cry to his fellow; the
screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.
The desert creatures
will meet with
hyenas, and one wild goat
will call to another. There the night creature
will settle and find her place of
repose.
There shall the great
owl make her nest, and lay, and
hatch, and gather under her shadow: there shall the vultures also be gathered, every one with her
mate.
There the
owl will make her nest; she
will lay and
hatch her eggs and gather her
brood under her shadow. Even there the birds of prey
will gather, each with its
mate.
Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her
mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
Search and read the
scroll of the LORD: Not one of these
will go missing, not one
will lack her
mate, because He has ordered it by His mouth, and He
will gather them by His Spirit.
And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them by line: they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation shall they dwell therein.

forever; they
will dwell in it from generation to generation.

glad for them; and the desert shall
rejoice, and
blossom as the rose.

will come with
vengeance. With divine
retribution He
will come to save you.”
Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the
deaf shall be unstopped.
Then the eyes of the blind
will be opened and the ears of the
deaf unstopped.
Then shall the
lame man
leap as an
hart, and the tongue of the
dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
Then the
lame will leap like a deer and the
mute tongue
will shout for joy. For waters
will gush forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.
The
parched ground
will become a
pool, the
thirsty land springs of water. In the
haunt where jackals once lay, there
will be grass and reeds and
papyrus.
And an
highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of
holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the
wayfaring men, though fools, shall not
err therein.
And there
will be a
highway called the Way of
Holiness. The unclean
will not travel it— only those who walk in the Way— and fools
will not
stray onto it.
No lion shall be there, nor any
ravenous beast shall go up
thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:
No lion
will be there, and no
vicious beast
will go up on it. Such

will walk upon it.
Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt;
whereon if a man
lean, it
will go into his hand, and
pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him.
Look now, you are trusting in Egypt, that
splintered reed of a staff that
will pierce the hand of
anyone who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Now, therefore, make a
bargain with my master, the king of Assyria. I
will give you two thousand horses—if you can put riders on them!
Neither let
Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD
will surely deliver us: this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Do not let
Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, ‘The LORD
will surely deliver us; this city
will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’
Hearken not to
Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me: and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own
cistern;
Do not
listen to
Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you
will eat from his own vine and his own fig tree, and drink water from his own
cistern,
Beware lest
Hezekiah persuade you, saying, The LORD
will deliver us. Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Do not let
Hezekiah mislead you when he says, ‘The LORD
will deliver us.’ Has the god of any nation ever delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
It may be the LORD thy God
will hear the words of
Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God, and
will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the
remnant that is left.
Perhaps the LORD your God
will hear the words of the
Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to
defy the living God, and He
will rebuke him for the words that the LORD your God has heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the
remnant that still survives.”
