7:1 | Woe <0480> is me! for I am as when they have gathered <0625> the summer fruits <07019>, as the grapegleanings <05955> of the vintage <01210>: [there is] no cluster <0811> to eat <0398> (8800): my soul <05315> desired <0183> (8765) the firstripe fruit <01063>. {when...: Heb. the gatherings of summer} |
7:2 | The good <02623> [man] is perished <06> (8804) out of the earth <0776>: and [there is] none upright <03477> among men <0120>: they all lie in wait <0693> (8799) for blood <01818>; they hunt <06679> (8799) every man <0376> his brother <0251> with a net <02764>. {good: or, godly, or, merciful} |
7:3 | That they may do evil <07451> with both hands <03709> earnestly <03190> (8687), the prince <08269> asketh <07592> (8802), and the judge <08199> (8802) [asketh] for a reward <07966>; and the great <01419> [man], he uttereth <01696> (8802) his mischievous <01942> desire <05315>: so they wrap it up <05686> (8762). {his...: Heb. the mischief of his soul} |
7:4 | The best <02896> of them [is] as a brier <02312>: the most upright <03477> [is sharper] than a thorn hedge <04534>: the day <03117> of thy watchmen <06822> (8764) [and] thy visitation <06486> cometh <0935> (8804); now shall be their perplexity <03998>. |
7:5 | Trust <0539> (8686) ye not in a friend <07453>, put ye not confidence <0982> (8799) in a guide <0441>: keep <08104> (8798) the doors <06607> of thy mouth <06310> from her that lieth <07901> (8802) in thy bosom <02436>. |
7:6 | For the son <01121> dishonoureth <05034> (8764) the father <01>, the daughter <01323> riseth up <06965> (8801) against her mother <0517>, the daughter in law <03618> against her mother in law <02545>; a man's <0376> enemies <0341> (8802) [are] the men <0582> of his own house <01004>. |
7:7 | Therefore I will look <06822> (8762) unto the LORD <03068>; I will wait <03176> (8686) for the God <0430> of my salvation <03468>: my God <0430> will hear <08085> (8799) me. |
7:8 | Rejoice <08055> (8799) not against me, O mine enemy <0341> (8802): when I fall <05307> (8804), I shall arise <06965> (8804); when I sit <03427> (8799) in darkness <02822>, the LORD <03068> [shall be] a light <0216> unto me. |
7:9 | I will bear <05375> (8799) the indignation <02197> of the LORD <03068>, because I have sinned <02398> (8804) against him, until he plead <07378> (8799) my cause <07379>, and execute <06213> (8804) judgment <04941> for me: he will bring me forth <03318> (8686) to the light <0216>, [and] I shall behold <07200> (8799) his righteousness <06666>. |
7:10 | Then [she that is] mine enemy <0341> (8802) shall see <07200> (8799) [it], and shame <0955> shall cover <03680> (8762) her which said <0559> (8802) unto me, Where is the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>? mine eyes <05869> shall behold <07200> (8799) her: now shall she be trodden down <04823> as the mire <02916> of the streets <02351>. {Then...: or, And thou wilt see her that is mine enemy, and cover her with shame} {shall she...: Heb. she shall be for a treading down} |
7:11 | [In] the day <03117> that thy walls <01447> are to be built <01129> (8800), [in] that day <03117> shall the decree <02706> be far removed <07368> (8799). |
7:12 | [In] that day <03117> [also] he shall come <0935> (8799) even to thee from Assyria <0804>, and [from] the fortified <04693> cities <05892>, and from the fortress <04693> even to the river <05104>, and from sea <03220> to sea <03220>, and [from] mountain <02022> to mountain <02022>. {and [from] the fortified cities: or, even to the fortified cities} |
7:13 | Notwithstanding the land <0776> shall be desolate <08077> because of them that dwell <03427> (8802) therein, for the fruit <06529> of their doings <04611>. {Notwithstanding: or, After that it hath been} |
7:14 | Feed <07462> (8798) thy people <05971> with thy rod <07626>, the flock <06629> of thine heritage <05159>, which dwell <07931> (8802) solitarily <0910> [in] the wood <03293>, in the midst <08432> of Carmel <03760>: let them feed <07462> (8799) [in] Bashan <01316> and Gilead <01568>, as in the days <03117> of old <05769>. {Feed: or, Rule} |
7:15 | According to the days <03117> of thy coming <03318> (8800) out of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> will I shew <07200> (8686) unto him marvellous <06381> (8737) [things]. |
7:16 | The nations <01471> shall see <07200> (8799) and be confounded <0954> (8799) at all their might <01369>: they shall lay <07760> (8799) [their] hand <03027> upon [their] mouth <06310>, their ears <0241> shall be deaf <02790> (8799). |
7:17 | They shall lick <03897> (8762) the dust <06083> like a serpent <05175>, they shall move <07264> (8799) out of their holes <04526> like worms <02119> (8801) of the earth <0776>: they shall be afraid <06342> (8799) of the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, and shall fear <03372> (8799) because of thee. {worms: or, creeping things} |
7:18 | Who [is] a God <0410> like unto thee, that pardoneth <05375> (8802) iniquity <05771>, and passeth by <05674> (8802) the transgression <06588> of the remnant <07611> of his heritage <05159>? he retaineth <02388> (8689) not his anger <0639> for ever <05703>, because he delighteth <02654> (8804) [in] mercy <02617>. |
7:19 | He will turn again <07725> (8799), he will have compassion <07355> (8762) upon us; he will subdue <03533> (8799) our iniquities <05771>; and thou wilt cast <07993> (8686) all their sins <02403> into the depths <04688> of the sea <03220>. |
7:20 | Thou wilt perform <05414> (8799) the truth <0571> to Jacob <03290>, [and] the mercy <02617> to Abraham <085>, which thou hast sworn <07650> (8738) unto our fathers <01> from the days <03117> of old <06924>. |
