14:1 For the LORD 3068 will have mercy 7355 8762 on Jacob 3290, and will yet choose 977 8804 Israel 3478, and set 3240 8689 them in their own land 127: and the strangers 1616 shall be joined 3867 8738 with them, and they shall cleave 5596 8738 to the house 1004 of Jacob 3290.

14:2 And the people 5971 shall take 3947 8804 them, and bring 935 8689 them to their place 4725: and the house 1004 of Israel 3478 shall possess 5157 8694 them in the land 127 of the LORD 3068 for servants 5650 and handmaids 8198: and they shall take them captives 7617 8802, whose captives 7617 8802 they were; and they shall rule 7287 8804 over their oppressors 5065 8802.(whose…: Heb. that had taken them captives)

14:3 And it shall come to pass in the day 3117 that the LORD 3068 shall give thee rest 5117 8687 from thy sorrow 6090, and from thy fear 7267, and from the hard 7186 bondage 5656 wherein thou wast made to serve 5647 8795,

14:4 That thou shalt take up 5375 8804 this proverb 4912 against the king 4428 of Babylon 894, and say 559 8804, How hath the oppressor 5065 8802 ceased 7673 8804! the golden city 4062 ceased 7673 8804!(proverb: or, taunting speech)(golden…: or, exactress of gold)

14:5 The LORD 3068 hath broken 7665 8804 the staff 4294 of the wicked 7563, [and] the sceptre 7626 of the rulers 4910 8802.

14:6 He who smote 5221 8688 the people 5971 in wrath 5678 with a continual 1115 5627 stroke 4347, he that ruled 7287 8802 the nations 1471 in anger 639, is persecuted 4783, [and] none 1097 hindereth 2820 8804.(a continual…: Heb. a stroke without removing)

14:7 The whole earth 776 is at rest 5117 8804, [and] is quiet 8252 8804: they break forth 6476 8804 into singing 7440.

14:8 Yea, the fir trees 1265 rejoice 8055 8804 at thee, [and] the cedars 730 of Lebanon 3844, [saying], Since thou art laid down 7901 8804, no feller 3772 8802 is come up 5927 8799 against us.

14:9 Hell 7585 from beneath is moved 7264 8804 for thee to meet 7125 8800 [thee] at thy coming 935 8800: it stirreth up 5782 8790 the dead 7496 for thee, [even] all the chief ones 6260 of the earth 776; it hath raised up 6965 8689 from their thrones 3678 all the kings 4428 of the nations 1471.(Hell: or, The grave)(chief…: Heb. leaders, or, great goats)

14:10 All they shall speak 6030 8799 and say 559 8799 unto thee, Art thou also become weak 2470 8795 as we? art thou become like 4911 8738 unto us?

14:11 Thy pomp 1347 is brought down 3381 8717 to the grave 7585, [and] the noise 1998 of thy viols 5035: the worm 7415 is spread 3331 8714 under thee, and the worms 8438 cover 4374 thee.

14:12 How art thou fallen 5307 8804 from heaven 8064, O Lucifer 1966, son 1121 of the morning 7837 8676 3213 8685! [how] art thou cut down 1438 8738 to the ground 776, which didst weaken 2522 8802 the nations 1471!(O Lucifer: or, O day star)

14:13 For thou hast said 559 8804 in thine heart 3824, I will ascend 5927 8799 into heaven 8064, I will exalt 7311 8686 my throne 3678 above 4605 the stars 3556 of God 410: I will sit 3427 8799 also upon the mount 2022 of the congregation 4150, in the sides 3411 of the north 6828:

14:14 I will ascend 5927 8799 above the heights 1116 of the clouds 5645; I will be like 1819 8691 the most High 5945.

14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down 3381 8714 to hell 7585, to the sides 3411 of the pit 953.

14:16 They that see 7200 8802 thee shall narrowly look 7688 8686 upon thee, [and] consider 995 8709 thee, [saying, Is] this the man 376 that made the earth 776 to tremble 7264 8688, that did shake 7493 8688 kingdoms 4467;

14:17 [That] made 7760 8804 the world 8398 as a wilderness 4057, and destroyed 2040 8804 the cities 5892 thereof; [that] opened 6605 8804 not the house 1004 of his prisoners 615?(opened…: or, did not let his prisoners loose homeward?)

14:18 All the kings 4428 of the nations 1471, [even] all of them, lie 7901 8804 in glory 3519, every one 376 in his own house 1004.

14:19 But thou art cast out 7993 8717 of thy grave 6913 like an abominable 8581 8737 branch 5342, [and as] the raiment 3830 of those that are slain 2026 8803, thrust through 2944 8794 with a sword 2719, that go down 3381 8802 to the stones 68 of the pit 953; as a carcase 6297 trodden under feet 947 8716.

14:20 Thou shalt not be joined 3161 8799 with them in burial 6900, because thou hast destroyed 7843 8765 thy land 776, [and] slain 2026 8804 thy people 5971: the seed 2233 of evildoers 7489 8688 shall never 5769 be renowned 7121 8735.

14:21 Prepare 3559 8685 slaughter 4293 for his children 1121 for the iniquity 5771 of their fathers 1; that they do not 1077 rise 6965 8799, nor possess 3423 8804 the land 776, nor fill 4390 8804 the face 6440 of the world 8398 with cities 6145 8676 5892.

14:22 For I will rise up 6965 8804 against them, saith 5002 8803 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635, and cut off 3772 8689 from Babylon 894 the name 8034, and remnant 7605, and son 5209, and nephew 5220, saith 5002 8803 the LORD 3068.

14:23 I will also make 7760 8804 it a possession 4180 for the bittern 7090, and pools 98 of water 4325: and I will sweep 2894 8773 it with the besom 4292 of destruction 8045 8687, saith 5002 8803 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635.

14:24 The LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 hath sworn 7650 8738, saying 559 8800, Surely as I have thought 1819 8765, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed 3289 8804, [so] shall it stand 6965 8799:

14:25 That I will break 7665 8800 the Assyrian 804 in my land 776, and upon my mountains 2022 tread him under foot 947 8799: then shall his yoke 5923 depart 5493 8804 from off them, and his burden 5448 depart 5493 8799 from off their shoulders 7926.

14:26 This [is] the purpose 6098 that is purposed 3289 8803 upon the whole earth 776: and this [is] the hand 3027 that is stretched out 5186 8803 upon all the nations 1471.

14:27 For the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 hath purposed 3289 8804, and who shall disannul 6565 8686 [it]? and his hand 3027 [is] stretched out 5186 8803, and who shall turn it back 7725 8686?

14:28 In the year 8141 that king 4428 Ahaz 271 died 4194 was this burden 4853.

14:29 Rejoice 8055 8799 not thou, whole Palestina 6429, because the rod 7626 of him that smote 5221 8688 thee is broken 7665 8738: for out of the serpent's 5175 root 8328 shall come forth 3318 8799 a cockatrice 6848, and his fruit 6529 [shall be] a fiery 8314 0 flying 5774 8789 serpent 8314.(cockatrice: or, adder)

14:30 And the firstborn 1060 of the poor 1800 shall feed 7462 8804, and the needy 34 shall lie down 7257 8799 in safety 983: and I will kill 4191 8689 thy root 8328 with famine 7458, and he shall slay 2026 8799 thy remnant 7611.

14:31 Howl 3213 8685, O gate 8179; cry 2199 8798, O city 5892; thou, whole Palestina 6429, [art] dissolved 4127 8738: for there shall come 935 8804 from the north 6828 a smoke 6227, and none [shall be] alone 909 8802 in his appointed times 4151.(none…: or, he shall not be alone)(appointed…: or, assemblies)

14:32 What shall [one] then answer 6030 8799 the messengers 4397 of the nation 1471? That the LORD 3068 hath founded 3245 8765 Zion 6726, and the poor 6041 of his people 5971 shall trust 2620 8799 in it.(trust…: or, betake themselves unto it)
