1 # Woe <01945> to the bloody <01818> city <05892>! it is all full <04392> of lies <03585> and robbery <06563>; the prey <02964> departeth <04185> (8686) not;
2 The noise <06963> of a whip <07752>, and the noise <06963> of the rattling <07494> of the wheels <0212>, and of the pransing <01725> (8802) horses <05483>, and of the jumping <07540> (8764) chariots <04818>.
3 The horseman <06571> lifteth up <05927> (8688) both the bright <03851> sword <02719> and the glittering <01300> spear <02595>: and there is a multitude <07230> of slain <02491>, and a great <03514> number of carcases <06297>; and there is none end <07097> of their corpses <01472>; they stumble <03782> (8804) (8675) <03782> (8735) upon their corpses <01472>:
4 Because of the multitude <07230> of the whoredoms <02183> of the wellfavoured <02896> <02580> harlot <02181> (8802), the mistress <01172> of witchcrafts <03785>, that selleth <04376> (8802) nations <01471> through her whoredoms <02183> , and families <04940> through her witchcrafts <03785>.
5 Behold, I am against thee, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>; and I will discover <01540> (8765) thy skirts <07757> upon thy face <06440>, and I will shew <07200> (8689) the nations <01471> thy nakedness <04626>, and the kingdoms <04467> thy shame <07036>.
6 And I will cast <07993> (8689) abominable filth <08251> upon thee, and make thee vile <05034> (8765), and will set <07760> (8804) thee as a gazingstock <07210>.
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look <07200> (8802) upon thee shall flee <05074> (8799) from thee, and say <0559> (8804), Nineveh <05210> is laid waste <07703> (8795): who will bemoan <05110> (8799) her? whence <0370> shall I seek <01245> (8762) comforters <05162> (8764) for thee?
8 # Art thou better <03190> (8686) than populous <0527> (8675) <0528> No <04996>, that was situate <03427> (8802) among the rivers <02975>, that had the waters <04325> round about <05439> it, whose rampart <02426> was the sea <03220>, and her wall <02346> was from the sea <03220>?
9 Ethiopia <03568> and Egypt <04714> were her strength <06109>, and it was infinite <0369> <07097> ; Put <06316> and Lubim <03864> were thy helpers <05833>.
10 Yet was she carried away <01473>, she went <01980> (8804) into captivity <07628>: her young children <05768> also were dashed in pieces <07376> (8792) at the top <07218> of all the streets <02351>: and they cast <03032> (8804) lots <01486> for her honourable men <03513> (8737), and all her great men <01419> were bound <07576> (8795) in chains <02131> .
11 Thou also shalt be drunken <07937> (8799): thou shalt be hid <05956> (8737), thou also shalt seek <01245> (8762) strength <04581> because of the enemy <0341> (8802).
12 All thy strong holds <04013> shall be like fig trees <08384> with the firstripe figs <01061>: if they be shaken <05128> (8735), they shall even fall <05307> (8804) into the mouth <06310> of the eater <0398> (8802).
13 Behold, thy people <05971> in the midst <07130> of thee are women <0802>: the gates <08179> of thy land <0776> shall be set wide <06605> (8800) open <06605> (8738) unto thine enemies <0341> (8802): the fire <0784> shall devour <0398> (8804) thy bars <01280>.
14 Draw <07579> (8798) thee waters <04325> for the siege <04692>, fortify <02388> (8761) thy strong holds <04013>: go <0935> (8798) into clay <02916>, and tread <07429> (8798) the morter <02563>, make strong <02388> (8685) the brickkiln <04404>.
15 There shall the fire <0784> devour <0398> (8799) thee; the sword <02719> shall cut thee off <03772> (8686) , it shall eat thee up <0398> (8799) like the cankerworm <03218>: make thyself many <03513> (8690) as the cankerworm <03218> , make thyself many <03513> (8690) as the locusts <0697>.
16 Thou hast multiplied <07235> (8689) thy merchants <07402> (8802) above the stars <03556> of heaven <08064> : the cankerworm <03218> spoileth <06584> (8804), and flieth away <05774> (8799).
17 Thy crowned <04502> are as the locusts <0697>, and thy captains <02951> as the great grasshoppers <01462>, which camp <02583> (8802) in the hedges <01448> in the cold <07135> day <03117>, but when the sun <08121> ariseth <02224> (8804) they flee away <05074> (8776), and their place <04725> is not known <03045> (8738) where <0335> they are.
18 Thy shepherds <07462> (8802) slumber <05123> (8804), O king <04428> of Assyria <0804>: thy nobles <0117> shall dwell <07931> (8799) in the dust: thy people <05971> is scattered <06335> (8738) upon the mountains <02022>, and no man gathereth <06908> (8764) them.
19 There is no healing <03545> of thy bruise <07667>; thy wound <04347> is grievous <02470> (8737): all that hear <08085> (8802) the bruit <08088> of thee shall clap <08628> (8804) the hands <03709> over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness <07451> passed <05674> (8804) continually <08548>?
