1 # For the LORD <03068> will have mercy <07355> (8762) on Jacob <03290>, and will yet choose <0977> (8804) Israel <03478>, and set <03240> (8689) them in their own land <0127>: and the strangers <01616> shall be joined <03867> (8738) with them, and they shall cleave <05596> (8738) to the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>.
2 And the people <05971> shall take <03947> (8804) them, and bring <0935> (8689) them to their place <04725> : and the house <01004> of Israel <03478> shall possess <05157> (8694) them in the land <0127> of the LORD <03068> for servants <05650> and handmaids <08198>: and they shall take them captives <07617> (8802), whose captives <07617> (8802) they were; and they shall rule <07287> (8804) over their oppressors <05065> (8802).
3 And it shall come to pass in the day <03117> that the LORD <03068> shall give thee rest <05117> (8687) from thy sorrow <06090>, and from thy fear <07267>, and from the hard <07186> bondage <05656> wherein thou wast made to serve <05647> (8795),
4 # That thou shalt take up <05375> (8804) this proverb <04912> against the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, and say <0559> (8804), How hath the oppressor <05065> (8802) ceased <07673> (8804)! the golden city <04062> ceased <07673> (8804)!
5 The LORD <03068> hath broken <07665> (8804) the staff <04294> of the wicked <07563>, and the sceptre <07626> of the rulers <04910> (8802).
6 He who smote <05221> (8688) the people <05971> in wrath <05678> with a continual <01115> <05627> stroke <04347>, he that ruled <07287> (8802) the nations <01471> in anger <0639>, is persecuted <04783>, and none <01097> hindereth <02820> (8804).
7 The whole earth <0776> is at rest <05117> (8804), and is quiet <08252> (8804): they break forth <06476> (8804) into singing <07440>.
8 Yea, the fir trees <01265> rejoice <08055> (8804) at thee, and the cedars <0730> of Lebanon <03844>, saying, Since thou art laid down <07901> (8804), no feller <03772> (8802) is come up <05927> (8799) against us.
9 Hell <07585> from beneath is moved <07264> (8804) for thee to meet <07125> (8800) thee at thy coming <0935> (8800): it stirreth up <05782> (8790) the dead <07496> for thee, even all the chief ones <06260> of the earth <0776>; it hath raised up <06965> (8689) from their thrones <03678> all the kings <04428> of the nations <01471>.
10 All they shall speak <06030> (8799) and say <0559> (8799) unto thee, Art thou also become weak <02470> (8795) as we? art thou become like <04911> (8738) unto us?
11 Thy pomp <01347> is brought down <03381> (8717) to the grave <07585>, and the noise <01998> of thy viols <05035>: the worm <07415> is spread <03331> (8714) under thee, and the worms <08438> cover <04374> thee.

12 How art thou fallen <05307> (8804) from heaven <08064>, O Lucifer <01966>, son <01121> of the morning <07837> (8676) <03213> (8685)! how art thou cut down <01438> (8738) to the ground <0776>, which didst weaken <02522> (8802) the nations <01471>!
13 For thou hast said <0559> (8804) in thine heart <03824>, I will ascend <05927> (8799) into heaven <08064> , I will exalt <07311> (8686) my throne <03678> above <04605> the stars <03556> of God <0410>: I will sit <03427> (8799) also upon the mount <02022> of the congregation <04150>, in the sides <03411> of the north <06828>:
14 I will ascend <05927> (8799) above the heights <01116> of the clouds <05645>; I will be like <01819> (8691) the most High <05945>.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down <03381> (8714) to hell <07585>, to the sides <03411> of the pit <0953>.
16 They that see <07200> (8802) thee shall narrowly look <07688> (8686) upon thee, and consider <0995> (8709) thee, saying, Is this the man <0376> that made the earth <0776> to tremble <07264> (8688), that did shake <07493> (8688) kingdoms <04467>;
17 That made <07760> (8804) the world <08398> as a wilderness <04057>, and destroyed <02040> (8804) the cities <05892> thereof; that opened <06605> (8804) not the house <01004> of his prisoners <0615>?
18 All the kings <04428> of the nations <01471>, even all of them, lie <07901> (8804) in glory <03519>, every one <0376> in his own house <01004>.
19 But thou art cast out <07993> (8717) of thy grave <06913> like an abominable <08581> (8737) branch <05342> , and as the raiment <03830> of those that are slain <02026> (8803), thrust through <02944> (8794) with a sword <02719> , that go down <03381> (8802) to the stones <068> of the pit <0953>; as a carcase <06297> trodden under feet <0947> (8716).
20 Thou shalt not be joined <03161> (8799) with them in burial <06900>, because thou hast destroyed <07843> (8765) thy land <0776>, and slain <02026> (8804) thy people <05971>: the seed <02233> of evildoers <07489> (8688) shall never <05769> be renowned <07121> (8735).
21 Prepare <03559> (8685) slaughter <04293> for his children <01121> for the iniquity <05771> of their fathers <01>; that they do not <01077> rise <06965> (8799), nor possess <03423> (8804) the land <0776>, nor fill <04390> (8804) the face <06440> of the world <08398> with cities <06145> (8676) <05892>.
22 For I will rise up <06965> (8804) against them, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> , and cut off <03772> (8689) from Babylon <0894> the name <08034>, and remnant <07605>, and son <05209>, and nephew <05220>, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
23 I will also make <07760> (8804) it a possession <04180> for the bittern <07090>, and pools <098> of water <04325>: and I will sweep <02894> (8773) it with the besom <04292> of destruction <08045> (8687), saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.
24 # The LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath sworn <07650> (8738), saying <0559> (8800), Surely as I have thought <01819> (8765), so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed <03289> (8804), so shall it stand <06965> (8799) :
25 That I will break <07665> (8800) the Assyrian <0804> in my land <0776>, and upon my mountains <02022> tread him under foot <0947> (8799): then shall his yoke <05923> depart <05493> (8804) from off them, and his burden <05448> depart <05493> (8799) from off their shoulders <07926>.
26 This is the purpose <06098> that is purposed <03289> (8803) upon the whole earth <0776>: and this is the hand <03027> that is stretched out <05186> (8803) upon all the nations <01471>.
27 For the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath purposed <03289> (8804), and who shall disannul <06565> (8686) it? and his hand <03027> is stretched out <05186> (8803), and who shall turn it back <07725> (8686)?
28 In the year <08141> that king <04428> Ahaz <0271> died <04194> was this burden <04853>.
29 Rejoice <08055> (8799) not thou, whole Palestina <06429>, because the rod <07626> of him that smote <05221> (8688) thee is broken <07665> (8738): for out of the serpent's <05175> root <08328> shall come forth <03318> (8799) a cockatrice <06848>, and his fruit <06529> shall be a fiery <08314> <00> flying <05774> (8789) serpent <08314> .
30 And the firstborn <01060> of the poor <01800> shall feed <07462> (8804), and the needy <034> shall lie down <07257> (8799) in safety <0983>: and I will kill <04191> (8689) thy root <08328> with famine <07458>, and he shall slay <02026> (8799) thy remnant <07611>.
31 Howl <03213> (8685), O gate <08179>; cry <02199> (8798), O city <05892>; thou, whole Palestina <06429>, art dissolved <04127> (8738): for there shall come <0935> (8804) from the north <06828> a smoke <06227> , and none shall be alone <0909> (8802) in his appointed times <04151>.
32 What shall one then answer <06030> (8799) the messengers <04397> of the nation <01471>? That the LORD <03068> hath founded <03245> (8765) Zion <06726>, and the poor <06041> of his people <05971> shall trust <02620> (8799) in it.
