Psalm 82 They know not, neither do they understand; they go about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are moved. I said: Ye are godlike beings, and all of you sons of the Most High.

Isaiah 41:25 I have roused up one from the north, and he is come, from the rising of the sun one that calleth upon My name; and he shall come upon rulers as upon mortar (Elam, Cyrus, David), and as the potter treadeth clay. Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say that he is right? Yea, there is none that declareth, yea, there is none that announceth, yea, there is none that heareth your utterances. A harbinger unto Zion will I give: 'Behold, behold them', and to Jerusalem a messenger of good tidings.
Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth.4 He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right(terror to the sinners Isaiah 33 The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Thy heart shall muse on the terror (sinner fall to Sheol): 'Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed? Where is he that counted the towers?') in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching. 6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light (Star of Jacob) of the nations; The LORD was pleased, for His righteousness' sake, to make the teaching great and glorious.

Psalm 45 My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I say: 'My work is concerning a king'; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured upon thy lips; therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. Gird thy sword upon thy thigh (Words of mouth in justice), O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty. And in thy majesty prosper, ride on, in behalf of truth and meekness and righteousness; and let thy right hand teach thee tremendous things. Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever; a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Happy are they that keep His testimonies, that seek Him with the whole heart. Yea, they do no unrighteousness; they walk in His ways. Thou hast ordained Thy precepts, that we should observe them diligently. Oh that my ways were directed to observe Thy statutes! Then should I not be ashamed, when I have regard unto all Thy commandments. I will give thanks unto Thee with uprightness of heart, when I learn Thy righteous ordinances. I will observe Thy statutes; O forsake me not utterly.
Psalm 139
For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb.

Psalm119 TAV. Let my cry come near before Thee, O LORD; give me understanding according to Thy word. Let my supplication come before Thee; deliver me according to Thy word. Let my lips utter praise: because Thou teachest me Thy statutes. Let my tongue sing of Thy word; for all Thy commandments are righteousness. Let Thy hand be ready to help me; for I have chosen Thy precepts. I have longed for Thy salvation, O LORD; and Thy law is my delight. Let my soul live, and it shall praise Thee; and let Thine ordinances help me. I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Thy servant; for I have not forgotten Thy commandments.

My frame was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous (Word of God tried Proverb 30 who ascend and descend? who is his son?), and lead me in the way everlasting. (Job 29 Then I said: 'I shall die with my nest (bed in netherworld), and I shall multiply my days as the phoenix (<idolater sand Proverb 27 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's vexation is heavier than they both. Jeremiah 5 Fear ye not Me? saith the LORD; Will ye not tremble at My presence?

Jeremiah 15 Their widows are increased to Me above the sand of the seas; I bring upon them, against the mother, a chosen one, even a spoiler at noonday; I cause anguish and terrors to fall upon her suddenly. Jeremiah 33 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. Hoshea 2 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass that, instead of that which was said unto them: 'Ye are not My people', it shall be said unto them: 'Ye are the children of the living God.' Job 6 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas; therefore are my words broken.)) If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand(everlasting, Habakkuk 1 They come all of them for violence; their faces are set eagerly as the east wind; and they gather captives as the sand. Ps 78He caused flesh also to rain upon them as the dust, and winged fowl as the sand of the seas;); were I to come to the end of them, I would still be with Thee.;
Ezekiel 9 And the LORD said unto him: 'Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that are done in the midst thereof.' And the LORD said unto him: 'Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that are done in the midst thereof.' slay utterly the old man, the young man and the maiden, and little children and women; but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary.' Then they began at the elders that were before the house.
Genesis 1 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.'
And God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.

Job 31:35 If after the manner of men I covered my transgressions, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom— Because I feared the great multitude, and the most contemptible among families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and went not out of the door. Oh that I had one to hear me!—Lo, here is my signature (a mark a Tav), let the Almighty answer me—and that I had the indictment which mine adversary hath written! Surely I would carry it upon my shoulder; I would bind it unto me as a crown. I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him. If my land cry out against me, and the furrows thereof weep together; If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the tillers thereof to be disappointed— Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and noisome weeds instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.

Isaiah 14 For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob (Hoshea 6 For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings.), and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land; and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the peoples shall take them, and bring them to their place; and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and for handmaids; and they shall take them captive, whose captives they were (Psalm18,68); and they shall rule over their oppressors. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve (Isaiah 40), And thou saidst in thy heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne, and I will sit upon the mount of meeting, in the uttermost parts of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.' Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, thou hast slain thy people; the seed of evil-doers shall not be named for ever.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a stone of burden (Isaiah 22) for all the peoples; all that burden themselves with it shall be sore wounded; and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it.
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth () among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.

And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their heart: 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength through the LORD of hosts their God.' In that day will I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire among sheaves; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem. The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified above Judah. In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike (likeness) being, as the angel of the LORD before them.

John 14
Jesus (Yeshua) answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognise him. John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, ‘I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, “Make straight the way for the Lord.”’ Then John gave this testimony: ‘I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him. I have seen and I testify that this is God’s Chosen One.’ When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, ‘Look, the Lamb of God!’
Isaiah 5 Therefore My people are gone into captivity, For want of knowledge; And their honourable men are famished, And their multitude are parched with thirst’'
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed (Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.), and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Hark! one calleth: 'Clear ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make plain in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the rugged shall be made level, and the rough places a plain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah: 'Behold your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One, and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath meted out the spirit of the LORD? Or who was His counsellor that he might instruct Him? With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of right, and taught Him knowledge, and made Him to know the way of discernment? Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance; behold the isles are as a mote in weight.
Zechariah 5 And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land (Iniquity, measured of the waters, measure of dust, balance, scales)— and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.' And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
Amos 7
Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand. And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline (lead-weight).' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
Micah 7
I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against Him; until He plead my cause, and execute judgment for me; He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold His righteousness.
Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up. Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
Isaiah 53
Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.
All we like sheep did go astray, we turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath made to light on him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth.
By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due.
And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Zechariah 13
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
Amos 7
but prophesy not again any more at Beth-el, for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal house.'
Hoshea 10
So hath Beth-el done unto you because of your great wickedness; at daybreak is the king of Israel utterly cut off.
Zechariah 13
And it shall come to pass that, when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begot him shall say unto him: 'Thou shalt not live, for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD'; and his father and his mother that begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be brought to shame every one through his vision, when he prophesieth; neither shall they wear a hairy mantle to deceive;
but he shall say: 'I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for I have been made a bondman from my youth.'
Amos 7
Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah: 'I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdman, and a dresser of sycamore-trees;
and the LORD took me from following the flock, and the LORD said unto me: Go, prophesy unto My people Israel. Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest: Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac;
Zechariah 13
And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'
Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts (Psalm 80 Let Thy hand be upon the man of Thy right hand, upon the son of man whom Thou madest strong for Thyself. So shall we not turn back from Thee; quicken Thou us, and we will call upon Thy name. King of Israel cut off, he deliver the sword and scatter Israel around the Globe); smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones. Isaiah 21 For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Ezekiel 5 A third part shalt thou burn in the fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled; and thou shalt take a third part, and smite it with the sword round about her; and a third part thou shalt scatter to the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them. Ezekiel 12 And I will disperse toward every wind all that are round about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.
Psalm 55
He hath redeemed my soul in peace so that none came nigh me; for they were many that strove with me.
But it was thou, a man mine equal, my companion, and my familiar friend; God shall hear, and humble them, even He that is enthroned of old, Selah , such as have no changes, and fear not God. He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream (butter, curd-like) were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords(Isaiah 49 And He hath made my mouth like a sharp sword (Isaiah 11 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.(sword)), in the shadow of His hand hath He hid me; and He hath made me a polished shaft, in His quiver hath He concealed me; Ezekiel 21 And thou, son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their taunt; and say thou: O sword, O sword keen-edged, furbished for the slaughter, to the uttermost, because of the glitterings; Number 22 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, with his sword drawn in his hand; and he bowed his head, and fell on his face. Josh 5 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand; and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him: 'Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?' 1 chronicle 21 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD standing between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces. Job 20 He draweth it forth, and it cometh out of his body; yea, the glittering point (sword) cometh out of his gall; terrors are upon him. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God. Ezekiel 21 and all flesh shall know that I the LORD have drawn forth My sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more. Micah 5 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the keen-edged sword; and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our border. Ezekiel 32 They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword; she is delivered to the sword; draw her down and all her multitudes.). Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He will sustain thee; He will never suffer the righteous to be moved. But Thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the nethermost pit; men of blood and deceit shall not live out half their days; but as for me, I will trust in Thee.
Zechariah 11
This is what the Lord my God says: ‘Shepherd the flock marked for slaughter. whose buyers slay them, and hold themselves not guilty; and they that sell them say: Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich; and their own shepherds pity them not. So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Graciousness (Zechariah 4 Who art thou, O great mountain before Zerubbabel? thou shalt become a plain; and he shall bring forth the top stone with shoutings of Grace, grace, unto it.'), and the other I called Binders; and I fed the flock. And I cut off the three shepherds in one month (Zehariah 13 also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land. ); 'for My soul became impatient of them, and their soul also loathed Me.' And I took my staff Graciousness, and cut it asunder, 'that I might break My covenant which I had made with all the peoples.' And it was broken in that day; and the poor of the flock that gave heed unto me knew of a truth that it was the word of the LORD. Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Binders, that the brotherhood between Judah and Israel might be broken. And the LORD said unto me: 'Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd. For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not think of those that are cut off, neither will seek those that are young, nor heal that which is broken; neither will he feed that which standeth still, but he will eat the flesh of the fat, and will break their hoofs in pieces.' Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaveth the flock! The sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye; his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
Micah 5
Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days.
Psalm 32 Happy is the man unto whom the LORD counteth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile. When I kept silence, my bones wore away through my groaning all the day long. For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me; my sap was turned as in the droughts of summer. Selah I acknowledged my sin unto Thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid; I said: 'I will make confession concerning my transgressions unto the LORD'—and Thou, Thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah For this let every one that is godly pray unto Thee in a time when Thou mayest be found; surely, when the great waters overflow, they will not reach unto him. Thou art my hiding-place; Thou wilt preserve me from the adversary; with songs of deliverance Thou wilt compass me about. Selah 'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will give counsel, Mine eye being upon thee.' Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, that they come not near unto thee. Many are the sorrows of the wicked; but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy compasseth him about. Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
Micah 7
Woe is me! for I am as the last of the summer fruits (Amos 7, Zechariah 13 The plumb line/The herdman and the tiller of the ground/bondman(servant Jacob/David)/sheppard his friend near God(Jeremiah 30 cause to call him near)), as the grape gleanings of the vintage; there is no cluster to eat; nor first-ripe fig which my soul desireth. Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a familiar friend; keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom. Then mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her; who said unto me: Where is the LORD thy God? Mine eyes shall gaze upon her; now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.' The day for building thy walls, even that day, shall be far removed.' There shall be a day when they shall come unto thee, from Assyria even to the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
'As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things.'
The nations shall see and be put to shame for all their might; they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
They shall lick the dust like a serpent; like crawling things of the earth they shall come trembling out of their close places; they shall come with fear unto the LORD our God, and shall be afraid because of Thee.
Who is a God like unto Thee, that pardoneth the iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He retaineth not His anger for ever, because He delighteth in mercy.
He will again have compassion upon us; He will subdue our iniquities; and Thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
Psalm 33
He loveth righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; He layeth up the deeps in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. The LORD bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect. The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations. Happy is the nation whose God is the LORD; the people whom He hath chosen for His own inheritance. The LORD looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men; From the place of His habitation He looketh intently upon all the inhabitants of the earth; He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their doings. A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. Behold, the (Plumb line) eye of the LORD is toward them that fear Him, toward them that wait for His mercy; To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. For in Him doth our heart rejoice, because we have trusted in His holy name. Let Thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we have waited for Thee.
Psalm 132
How he swore unto the LORD, and vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
'Surely I will not come into the tent of my house, nor go up into the bed that is spread for me;
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids;
Until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling-place for the Mighty One of Jacob.' Lo, we heard of it as being in Ephrath; we found it in the field of the wood. Let us go into His dwelling-place; let us worship at His footstool. Arise, O LORD, unto Thy resting-place; Thou, and the ark of Thy strength. For Thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of Thine anointed. The LORD swore unto David in truth; He will not turn back from it: 'Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. If thy children keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.' For the LORD hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation: 'This is My resting-place for ever; here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will abundantly bless her provision; I will give her needy bread in plenty.
There will I make a horn to shoot up unto David, there have I ordered a lamp for Mine anointed. And he said unto me: 'What seest thou?' And I said: 'I have seen, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes, yea, seven, to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
Then said he: 'These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.' and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.' Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. (Psalm 33 A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth (Isaiah 11 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked(sword)).)
Zechariah 14 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when He fighteth in the day of battle.And His feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleft in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, so that there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel; yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with Thee. (Amos 1:2 THE WORDS of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake. And he said: The LORD roareth from Zion, and uttereth His voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither. Thus saith the LORD: For three transgressions of Judah, yea, for four, I will not reverse it: because they have rejected the law of the LORD, and have not kept His statutes, and their lies have caused them to err, after which their fathers did walk. So will I send a fire upon Judah (Isaiah 30 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, with His anger burning, and in thick uplifting of smoke (Isaiah 6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple. Proverb 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman(unloved one) when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. There are three things which are stately in their march, yea, four which are stately in going: The lion, which is mightiest among beasts, and turneth not away for any; The greyhound; the he-goat also; and the king, against whom there is no rising up. Isaiah 6 And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. Then said I: Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.(Servant Jacob become king and expiated our sins, now he become a sheppard David)); His lips are full of indignation, and His tongue is as a devouring fire; ), and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem. Thus saith the LORD: For three transgressions of Israel, yea, for four, I will not reverse it: because they sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the humble; and a man and his father go unto the same maid, to profane My holy name; And they lay themselves down beside every altar upon clothes taken in pledge, and in the house of their God they drink the wine of them that have been fined. Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath. Also I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorites. And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazirites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD. But ye gave the Nazirites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying: 'Prophesy not.' Behold, I will make it creak under you, as a cart creaketh that is full of sheaves. And flight shall fail the swift, and the strong shall not exert his strength, neither shall the mighty deliver himself;(prophet, wise men cut off )Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself; neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself; And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.( Psalm 76 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth. Isaiah 30 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: in sitting still and rest shall ye be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye would not. But ye said: 'No, for we will flee upon horses'; therefore shall ye flee; and: 'We will ride upon the swift'; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift. One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one, at the rebuke of five shall ye flee; till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on a hill. And therefore will the LORD wait, that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will He be exalted, that He may have compassion upon you(Isaiah 14 For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land; and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. Jeremiah 31 For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion(Isaiah 40, 57, Nahum 2, Isaiah 52 the servant that become Sheppard Jeremiah 30 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they have called thee an outcast: 'She is Zion, there is none that careth for her (Isaiah 50 & 53). Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will turn the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling-places; and the city shall be builded upon her own mound, and the palace shall be inhabited upon its wonted place. And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry; and I will multiply them, and they shall not be diminished, I will also increase them, and they shall not dwindle away. And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.); for the LORD is a God of justice, happy are all they that wait for Him. For, O people that dwellest in Zion at Jerusalem, thou shalt weep no more; He will surely be gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry, when He shall hear, He will answer thee. And though the Lord give you sparing bread and scant water, yet shall not thy Teacher hide Himself any more, but thine eyes shall see thy Teacher;))
2 Samuel 15 And Absalom used to rise up early, and stand beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said: 'Of what city art thou?' And he said: 'Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.' And Absalom said unto him: 'See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.' Absalom said moreover: 'Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!' And it was so, that when any man came nigh to prostrate himself before him, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him. And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel. And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said unto the king: 'I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron. For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Aram, saying: If the LORD shall indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.' And the king said unto him: 'Go in peace.' So he arose, and went to Hebron. But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying: 'As soon as ye hear the sound of the horn, then ye shall say: Absalom is king in Hebron.' And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom. And there came a messenger to David, saying: 'The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.' And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem: 'Arise, and let us flee; or else none of us shall escape from Absalom; make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.' And the king's servants said unto the king: 'Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall choose.' And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, that were concubines, to keep the house. And the king went forth, and all the people after him; and they tarried in Beth-merhak. And David said to Ittai: 'Go and pass over.' And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him. And all the country wept with a loud voice, as all the people passed over; and as the king passed over the brook Kidron, all the people passed over, toward the way of the wilderness.
And, lo, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God—but Abiathar went up—until all the people had done passing out of the city. And the king said unto Zadok: 'Carry back the ark of God into the city; if I shall find favour in the eyes of the LORD, He will bring me back, and show me both it, and His habitation; but if He say thus: I have no delight in thee; behold, here am I, let Him do to me as seemeth good unto Him.' See, I will tarry in the plains of the wilderness, until there come word from you to announce unto me.' Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem; and they abode there. And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot; and all the people that were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up (Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.). Now David had been told, ‘Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.’ So David prayed, ‘Lord, turn Ahithophel’s counsel into foolishness.’ And it came to pass, that when David was come to the top of the ascent, where God was wont to be worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head. but if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom: I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant in time past, so will I now be thy servant; then wilt thou defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
2 Samuel 16 And the king said unto Ziba: 'What meanest thou by these?' And Ziba said: 'The asses are for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink.' And the king said: 'And where is thy master's son?' And Ziba said unto the king: 'Behold, he abideth at Jerusalem; for he said: To-day will the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.' Then said the king to Ziba: 'Behold, thine is all that pertaineth unto Mephibosheth.' And Ziba said: 'I prostrate myself; let me find favour in thy sight, my lord, O king.' Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king: 'Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king(Psalm 68 That thy foot may wade through blood, that the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.')? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.' And the king said: 'What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse (Isaiah 43 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and I have given Jacob to condemnation, and Israel to reviling. Isaiah 51 Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is My law; fear ye not the taunt of men, neither be ye dismayed at their revilings. Zeph 2 And it shall be a portion for the remnant of the house of Judah, whereon they shall feed; in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the LORD their God will remember them, and turn their captivity. I have heard the taunt of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, wherewith they have taunted My people, and spoken boastfully concerning their border. Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding-place of nettles, and saltpits, and a desolation, for ever; the residue of My people shall spoil them, and the remnant of My nation shall inherit them.), because the LORD hath said unto him: Curse David; who then shall say: Wherefore hast thou done so?' And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants: 'Behold, my son, who came forth of my body, seeketh my life; how much more this Benjamite now? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him. It may be that the LORD will look on mine eye, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing of me this day.(2 King 2 And he looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty and two children of them.)' So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hill-side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust. And Ahithophel said unto Absalom: 'Go in unto thy father's concubines, that he hath left to keep the house; and all Israel will hear that thou art abhorred of thy father; then will the hands of all that are with thee be strong.' So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.— Now the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man inquired of the word of God; so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
2 Samuel 17 Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom: 'Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night;and I will come upon him while he is weary and weak-handed, and will make him afraid; and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only; and I will bring back all the people unto thee; when all shall have returned, save the man whom thou seekest, all the people will be in peace.' And Hushai said unto Absalom: 'The counsel that Ahithophel hath given this time is not good.' Hushai said moreover: 'Thou knowest thy father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are embittered in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field (1 Samuel 17 And David said unto Saul: 'Thy servant kept his father's sheep; and when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock, Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath taunted the armies of the living God.' And David said: 'The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, He will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.' And Saul said unto David: 'Go, and the LORD shall be with thee.' Proverb 17 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly. Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. Isaiah 11 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. Isaiah 59 We all growl like bears (robbed bears), and mourn sore like doves; we look for right, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us. Lamentation 3 He is unto me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in secret places (hid). Hoshea 13 I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the enclosure of their heart (thorns); and there will I devour them like a lioness; the wild beast shall tear them. It is thy destruction, O Israel, that thou art against Me, against thy help. I give thee a king in Mine anger, and take him away in My wrath. For though he be fruitful among the reed-plants, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD coming up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up; he shall spoil the treasure of all precious vessels(Isaiah 21-22, Isaiah 32 I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia-tree, and the myrtle, and the oil-tree; I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together;) Shall I ransom them from the power of the nether-world? Shall I redeem them from death? Ho, thy plagues, O death! Ho, thy destruction, O nether-world! Repentance be hid from Mine eyes!. Amos 5 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; and went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
); and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people. Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some place; and it will come to pass, when they fall upon them at the first (and snare), and whosoever heareth it shall say: There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom; then even he that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion (Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel (Lion of God), and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.(Judge 14 And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down: What is sweeter than honey?(word of God) and what is stronger than a lion? (Lion of God) And he said unto them: If ye had not plowed with my heifer (2 Samuel 23 the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel), ye had not found out my riddle. Ezekiel 3 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee.' Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.)), will utterly melt; for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they that are with him are valiant men. And Absalom and all the men of Israel said: 'The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel.'—For the LORD had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom. And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David; and they said unto David: 'Arise ye, and pass quickly over the water; for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.' And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel. Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan; by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over the Jordan. When David was come to Mahanaim, Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him. and honey, and curd (Water, justice, word of the Lord, Isaiah 7 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall rear a young cow(Heifer, the candlestick, David, Messiah), and two sheep(two anointed ones); and it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give, he shall eat curd; for curd and honey shall every one eat that is left in the midst of the land. And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, shall even be for briers and thorns.), and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him (cross the Jordan), to eat; for they said: 'The people is hungry, and faint, and thirsty, in the wilderness.' (Deu 32 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, and he did eat the fruitage of the field; and He made him to suck honey out of the crag, and oil out of the flinty rock; Curd of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and he-goats, with the kidney-fat of wheat; and of the blood of the grape thou drankest foaming wine. Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price(Job 20 He shall not look upon the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and curd(the wicked Lam 4 Her princes were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was as of sapphire;)(Job 29 when my steps were washed with butter,
and the rock poured out streams of oil for me,)). Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. Psalm 55 For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David. Give ear, O God, to my prayer; and hide not Thyself from my supplication. Attend unto me, and hear me; I am distraught in my complaint, and will moan; Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked; for they cast mischief upon me, and in anger they persecute me. My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me. Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me. And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest. Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. (Psalm 139 If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;) Selah)(Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near(take wings, fly to the wilderness), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked.) I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.' Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongue; for I have seen violence and strife in the city. Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof; iniquity also and mischief are in the midst of it. Wickedness is in the midst thereof; oppression and guile depart not from her broad place. For it was not an enemy that taunted me, then I could have borne it; neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, then I would have hid myself from him. But it was thou, a man mine equal, my companion, and my familiar friend; We took sweet counsel together, in the house of God we walked with the throng. May He incite death against them, let them go down alive into the nether-world; for evil is in their dwelling, and within them. As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. He hath redeemed my soul in peace so that none came nigh me; for they were many that strove with me. God shall hear, and humble them, even He that is enthroned of old, Selah , such as have no changes, and fear not God. He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords. Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He will sustain thee; He will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
2 Samuel 18
And David numbered the people that were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
And David sent forth the people, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said unto the people: 'I will surely go forth with you myself also.' But the people said: 'Thou shalt not go forth; for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us; but thou art worth ten thousand of us: therefore now it is better that thou be ready to succour us out of the city.' And the king said unto them: 'What seemeth you best I will do.' And the king stood by the gate-side, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands. So the people went out into the field against Israel; and the battle was in the forest of Ephraim(Hoshea 10 And Ephraim is a heifer well broken, that loveth to thresh, and I have passed over upon her fair neck; I will make Ephraim to ride, Judah shall plow, Jacob shall break his clods. Sow to yourselves according to righteousness, reap according to mercy, break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, till He come and cause righteousness to rain upon you. Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity, ye have eaten the fruit of lies; for thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. Therefore shall a tumult (roar) arise among thy hosts, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle; the mother was dashed in pieces with her children. So hath Beth-el done unto you because of your great wickedness; at daybreak is the king of Israel utterly cut off. Micah 3 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest. Micah 4 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.). And the people of Israel were smitten there before the servants of David, and there was a great slaughter there that day of twenty thousand men. For the battle was there spread over the face of all the country; and the forest (Micah 5 But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through, treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and there is none to deliver. Micah 7 Tend Thy people with Thy staff, the flock of Thy heritage, that dwell solitarily, as a forest in the midst of the fruitful field; let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old. Isaiah 32And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley. Isaiah 56 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest. Ezekiel 20 and say to the forest of the South: Hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree, it shall not be quenched, even a flaming flame; and all faces from the south to the north shall be seared thereby.) devoured more people that day than the sword devoured. (Josh10 And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died; they were more who died with the hailstones (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;
He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Thy heart shall muse on the terror: 'Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed? Where is he that counted the towers?') than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword. ) And Absalom chanced to meet the servants of David. And Absalom was riding upon his mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great terebinth, and his head caught hold of the terebinth(in the forest), and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went on. And the man said unto Joab: 'Though I should receive a thousand pieces of silver in my hand, yet would I not put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying: Beware that none touch the young man Absalom Then said Joab: 'I may not tarry thus with thee.' And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the terebinth.(Josh 10 And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees; and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.). Otherwise if I had dealt falsely against mine own life—and there is no matter hid from the king—then thou thyself wouldest have stood aloof.' And they took Absalom, and cast him into the great pit in the forest, and raised over him a very great heap of stones; and all Israel fled every one to his tent.— Josh 10 And Joshua said: 'Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them; And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel. 2 Samuel 18 Now David sat between the two gates; and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold a man running alone. Isaiah 21 For thus hath the Lord said unto me: Go, set a watchman; let him declare what he seeth! And when he seeth a troop, horsemen by pairs, a troop of asses, a troop of camels, he shall hearken diligently with much heed. 2 Samuel 18 And the watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said: 'If he be alone, there is tidings in his mouth.' And he came apace, and drew near. And the watchman saw another man running; and the watchman called unto the porter, and said: 'Behold another man running alone.' And the king said: 'He also bringeth tidings.' And the watchman said: 'I think the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok.' And the king said: 'He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.' And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king: 'All is well.' And he bowed down before the king with his face to the earth, and said: 'Blessed be the LORD thy God, who hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.' And the king said: 'Is it well with the young man Absalom?' And Ahimaaz answered: 'When Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was.'And the king said: 'Turn aside, and stand here.' And he turned aside, and stood still. And the king said unto the Cushite: 'Is it well with the young man Absalom?' And the Cushite answered: 'The enemies of my lord the king and all that rise up against thee to do thee hurt, be as that young man is.'Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.' 2 Samuel 18 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept; and as he went, thus he said: 'O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!' Isaiah 21 O thou my threshing, and the winnowing of my floor, that which I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. The watchman said: 'The morning cometh, and also the night—if ye will inquire, inquire ye; return, come.' Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread.
For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. 2 Samuel 19 in that thou lovest them that hate thee, and hatest them that love thee. For thou hast declared this day, that princes and servants are nought unto thee; for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased thee well. Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people; Say unto them: As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? 2 Samuel 19 Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying: 'Behold, the king doth sit in the gate'; and all the people came before the king( Micah 2 The breaker is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them.). Now Israel had fled every man to his tent. And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying: 'The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land from Absalom. And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now, therefore, why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?' And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying: 'Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying: Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house?—For the speech of all Israel was come to the king, to bring him to his house.— Ye are my brethren, ye are my bone and my flesh; wherefore then should ye be the last to bring back the king? And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent unto the king: 'Return thou, and all thy servants.'
So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
For thy servant doth know that I have sinned; therefore, behold, I am come this day the first of all the house of Joseph (Ezekiel 37 say into them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them unto him together with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in My hand. and I will make them one nation in the land, upon the mountains of Israel, and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all; And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, for ever; and David My servant shall be their prince for ever. )to go down to meet my lord the king.'
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said: 'Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD'S anointed?'
And David said: 'What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?'
And the king said unto Shimei: 'Thou shalt not die.' And the king swore unto him.
And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
And it came to pass, when he was come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said unto him: 'Wherefore wentest not thou with me, Mephibosheth?'
And he answered: 'My lord, O king, my servant deceived me; for thy servant said: I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go with the king; because thy servant is lame.
And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thine eyes. (Isaiah 33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.)
And the king said unto Barzillai: 'Come thou over with me, and I will sustain thee with me in Jerusalem.'
Thy servant would but just go over the Jordan with the king; and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?
Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back, that I may die in mine own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.'
And the king answered: 'Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto thee; and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.'
And all the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over; and the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned unto his own place.
So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him; and all the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king: 'Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and brought the king, and his household, over the Jordan, and all David's men with him?' And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel: 'Because the king is near of kin to us; wherefore then are ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's cost? or hath any gift been given us?'( Zechariah 12 And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their heart: 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength through the LORD of hosts their God.')And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said: 'We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than ye; why then did ye despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?' And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer (Zechariah 12 I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire among sheaves)than the words of the men of Israel. Zechariah 12 On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness,’ declares the Lord. ‘I will keep a watchful eye (Zecharia 4 his eye, plumb line) over Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations (Zechariah 5 their eye over the earth). In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with bewilderment, and his rider with madness; and I will open Mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness. And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their heart: 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength through the LORD of hosts their God.' In that day will I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire among sheaves; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem. The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified above Judah. In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. 2 Samuel 19 And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thine eyes. 2 Samuel 14 Then thy handmaid said: Let, I pray thee, the word of my lord the king be for my comfort; for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad; and the LORD thy God be with thee.' to change the face of the matter hath thy servant Joab done this thing; and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.'
Zechariah 12 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. And the land shall mourn, every family apart: the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart; (Ezekiel 37 two stick become one say into them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them unto him together with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in My hand. and I will make them one nation in the land, upon the mountains of Israel, and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all; And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them. Jeremiah 33 Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season;' As the host of heaven cannot be numbered (The same promise Jacob/Joseph & David), neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them. Thus saith the LORD: If My covenant be not with day and night, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David My servant (Messiah executing both role servant Ben Joseph and sheppard/a king Ben David), so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.')
Messiah is waiting for you to cross over (He put your enemy as a bridge by the gird/break of his loins he become exalted Number 24 and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted(By offering himself (like Esther & Mardocai in sackcloth and repentance for Israel sins) and the gird of his loin low he is higher In Heaven(Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked (Zechariah 13:7), therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes. (Isaiah 52 According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.))). He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness (as servant and sacrifice, Jacob - 2 Samuel 6 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded (be base in mine own sight) with a linen ephod (Prophesy the Priesthood of Messiah). And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry. And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight (Psalm 50 Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me (Malachi 1 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master; (Proverb 30 For a servant when he reigneth(by honoring his master)), if then I be a father, where is My honour? and if I be a master, where is My fear?(Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you(jealously); therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.' Number 25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.') saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests(who is your father and master, Messiah as Hight Priest serve as Servant and obey as Son like Phinehas for his jealousy the purpose of his heart (Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart; in the end of days ye shall consider it.)), that despise My name. And ye say: 'Wherein have we despised Thy name?' ); and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.' 'Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.' If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof. Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High; And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt honour Me.' Isaiah 66 Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me? And where is the place that may be My resting-place? For all these things hath My hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith the LORD; but on this man will I look (2 Samuel 7 And Nathan said to the king: 'Go, do all that is in thy heart; for the LORD is with thee.' And I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disquieted no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as at the first, even from the day that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel; and I will cause thee to rest from all thine enemies. Moreover the LORD telleth thee that the LORD will make thee a house.(Psalm 127 A Song of Ascents; of Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it; except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.)), even on him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word. When thy days are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, that shall proceed out of thy body, and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son; if he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men; but My mercy shall not depart from him(God made him Jealousy), as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee. And thy house and thy kingdom shall be made sure for ever before thee; thy throne shall be established for ever. (He was jealousy for his father Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. Isaiah 53 He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth. Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you; therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.')'); and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.'(Proverb 30 For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. ,Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God. Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. There is a generation that curse their father, and do not bless their mother. The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young vultures shall eat it. Malachi 1 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master; if then I be a father, where is My honour? and if I be a master, where is My fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise My name. And ye say: 'Wherein have we despised Thy name?' Proverb 30 The greyhound(girded loins/ crushed Isaiah 63 'Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength (Job 40 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox (Job 39 Will the wild-ox unicorn (Number 24 God who brought him forth out of Egypt is for him like the lofty horns of the wild-ox; he shall eat up the nations that are his adversaries, and shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them through with his arrows.) be willing to serve thee? Or will he abide by thy crib? Canst thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow? Or will he harrow the valleys after thee? Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? Or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?). Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the stays of his body. He is the beginning of the ways of God (Proverb 8 The LORD made me as the beginning of His way, the first of His works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When He established the heavens, I was there; when He set a circle upon the face of the deep, When He made firm the skies above, when the fountains of the deep showed their might, When He gave to the sea His decree(sand wall Job 29 I was a father to the needy; and the cause of him that I knew not I searched out. And I broke the jaws of the unrighteous, and plucked the prey out of his teeth. Then I said: 'I shall die with my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the phoenix;(sand)), that the waters should not transgress His commandment, when He appointed the foundations of the earth;); He only that made him can make His sword to approach unto him. Psalm 80 Let Thy hand be upon the man of Thy right hand, upon the son of man whom Thou madest strong for Thyself.)?'—'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.'—); the he-goat also; and the king, against whom there is no rising up.)); who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee. The saying of him who heareth the words of God, and knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes (Servant Jacob with the top stone(the plummet of Zerubbabel) of shouting of Grace, grace, unto it): I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Jacob(Cyrus, David), and a scepter shall rise out of Israel(Sheppard's staff as Cyrus with God brightness Isaiah 60), and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth. Micah 2:13 The breaker (Psalm 93 Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea, the LORD on high is mighty.) is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them(Isaiah 52 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger of good tidings, that announceth peace, the harbinger of good tidings, that announceth salvation; that saith unto Zion: 'Thy God reigneth!' For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward.). Isaiah 51 Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering (Isaiah 22 The burden concerning the Valley of Vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops, Thou that art full of uproar, a tumultuous city, a joyous town? Thy slain are not slain with the sword,(by the spirit/breadth of God Zechariah 4, Isaiah 59) nor dead in battle. All thy rulers are fled together, without the bow they are bound; all that are found of thee are bound together, they are fled afar off. Isaiah 21 The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again.” Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Ezekiel 37 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and the LORD carried me out in a spirit, and set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones; and He caused me to pass by them round about(Genesis 15 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and there was thick darkness, behold a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces. And He said unto him: 'Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.' And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not. And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. And it came to pass, that, when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram Now terror and great darkness fell on him. (Isaiah 29 Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink.); and, lo, a dread, even a great darkness, fell upon him. For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered. And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';), and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And He said unto me: 'Son of man, can these bones live?' And I answered: 'O Lord GOD, Thou knowest.' Zechariah 12 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of staggering unto all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also shall it fall to be in the siege against Jerusalem. Zechariah 9 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Jeremiah 51 'The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon', shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and: 'My blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea', shall Jerusalem say. Therefore thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry. John 18 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? Matthew 26 For this is my blood of the new testament(covenant), which is shed for many for the remission of sins. Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. Mark 14 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt. Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isaiah 53 'Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the LORD been revealed? Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God. Isaiah 51 Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine; Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering; the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again;); the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again; And I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; that have said to thy soul: 'Bow down, that we may go over'; and thou hast laid thy back as the ground, and as the street, to them that go over. ) the Jordan and posses the land with his reign. Isaiah 52 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments,(Psalm 50, Isaiah 33) O Jerusalem (Zechariah 12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a stone of burden for all the peoples; all that burden themselves with it shall be sore wounded; and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it. In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with bewilderment, and his rider with madness; and I will open Mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness. Zechariah 9 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off, and he shall speak peace unto the nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.), the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Jeremiah 51 Ye that have escaped the sword, go ye, stand not still; remember the LORD from afar, and let Jerusalem come into your mind. Isaiah 21 Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, (Isaiah 50 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.) and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples(Habakkuk 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. And the LORD answered me, and said: 'Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that a man may read it swiftly. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him (Proverb 8 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil; pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.); but the righteous shall live by his faith (Isaiah 28 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it,). Malachi 3 But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered.'), a prince and commander to the peoples. Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. 2 Samuel 7 And Nathan said to the king: 'Go, do all that is in thy heart; for the LORD is with thee.'(Messiah as Hight Priest serve as Servant and obey as Son like Phinehas for his jealousy the purpose of his heart (Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart(Psalm 7 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah); in the end of days ye shall consider it.) Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught.(instruct his heart) The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. Isaiah 53 He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth. Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand:)
Psalm 132
How he swore unto the LORD, and vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
'Surely I will not come into the tent of my house, nor go up into the bed that is spread for me;
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids;
Until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling-place for the Mighty One of Jacob.' Lo, we heard of it as being in Ephrath; we found it in the field of the wood. Let us go into His dwelling-place; let us worship at His footstool. Arise, O LORD, unto Thy resting-place; Thou, and the ark of Thy strength. For Thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of Thine anointed. The LORD swore unto David in truth; He will not turn back from it: 'Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. If thy children keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.' For the LORD hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation: 'This is My resting-place for ever; here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will abundantly bless her provision; I will give her needy bread in plenty.
There will I make a horn to shoot up unto David, there have I ordered a lamp for Mine anointed. And he said unto me: 'What seest thou?' And I said: 'I have seen, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes, yea, seven, to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
Then said he: 'These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.' and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.' Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. (Psalm 33 A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth (Isaiah 11 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked(sword)).)
Isaiah 7 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.' And he said: 'Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also? Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
He will be eating curds(young cow, heifer) and honey(bee) when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall rear a young cow(the candlestick), (Genesis 15 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and there was thick darkness, behold a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces. And He said unto him: 'Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old,(two sheep) and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove(poor sacrifice), ( (Zechariah 9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly (poor, humble, needy), and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass. Micah 5 But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. Leviticus 12 And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons: the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean. Luke 2 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord; As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;) And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.) and a young pigeon.' And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not.) and two sheep(two anointed ones); and it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give, he shall eat curd; for curd and honey shall every one eat that is left in the midst of the land. And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, shall even be for briers and thorns(Psalm 55 He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream (butter, curd-like) were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords. Proverb 30 If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast planned devices, lay thy hand upon thy mouth. For the churning of milk bringeth forth curd, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood; so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife. Psalm 76 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth. Psalm 55 He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream (butter, curd-like) were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords). With arrows and with bow shall one come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns. And all the hills that were digged with the mattock(plumb line), thou shalt not come thither for fear of briers and thorns, but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.
Leviticus 20 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly(Gadfly) that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. Jeremiah 46 Egypt is a very fair heifer(don't produce abundantly milk/honey/oil (Isaiah 30 Therefore shall the stronghold of Pharaoh turn to your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your confusion.); but the gadfly (bee, heifer that produce abundantly milk/honey/oil, Immanuel) out of the north is come, it is come. Also her mercenaries in the midst of her are like calves of the stall, for they also are turned back, they are fled away together, they did not stand; for the day of their calamity is come upon them, the time of their visitation. The sound thereof shall go like the serpent's; for they march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood. They cut down her forest (Isaiah 7 And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the rugged valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all brambles In that day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also sweep away the beard..), saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
Leviticus 20 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples
Ye shall therefore separate between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean; and ye shall not make your souls detestable by beast, or by fowl, or by any thing wherewith the ground teemeth, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean.
Ezekiel 34 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land; and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
Ezekiel 32
By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall; the terrible of the nations are they all; and they shall spoil the pride of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed. I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside many waters; ( Leviticus 20 separate between the clean beast and the unclean )neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs of beasts trouble them. Then will I make their waters to settle, and cause their rivers to run like oil (Isaiah 60 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all are gathered together, and come to thee; thy sons come from far, and thy daughters are borne on the side. Thou shalt also suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings; and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour, and I, the Mighty One of Jacob, thy Redeemer. Isaiah 66 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child (Immanuel). Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD; Shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God. Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her; rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her; That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breast of her consolations; that ye may drink deeply with delight of the abundance of her glory For thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of the nations like an overflowing stream, and ye shall suck thereof (Milk): Ye shall be borne upon the side, and shall be dandled upon the knees. As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. (Lioness)), saith the Lord GOD. When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate and waste, a land destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall smite all them that dwell therein, then shall they know that I am the LORD.
Leviticus 20 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples
Joel 2 fire devoureth before them, and behind them a flame blazeth; the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing escapeth them (a wall).
Isaiah 28
Whom shall one teach knowledge? And whom shall one make to understand the message? Them that are weaned from the milk, them that are drawn from the breasts? For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little. For with stammering lips and with a strange tongue shall it be spoken to this people; To whom it was said: 'This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing'; yet they would not hear. And so the word of the LORD is unto them precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Isaiah 29
Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink. For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered. And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed'; and the writing is delivered to him that is not learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I am not learned.'
Isaiah 8 For before the child shall have knowledge to cry: My father, and: My mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.' Forasmuch as this people hath refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoiceth with Rezin and Remaliah's son; Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the River, mighty and many, even the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks; And he shall sweep through Judah overflowing as he passeth through he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel ( Isaiah 28Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it, As often as it passeth through, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night; and it shall be sheer terror to understand the message. For the bed is too short for a man to stretch himself; and the covering too narrow when he gathereth himself up. For the LORD will rise up as in mount Perazim (Josh 10 sun of justice Then spoke Joshua (Yehoshua, Immanuel) to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel: 'Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.' And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man (Yehoshua, Yeshua the Messiah); for the LORD fought for Israel. Habakkuk 3 The sun and moon stand still in their habitation; at the light of Thine arrows as they go, at the shining of Thy glittering spear. Thou marchest through the earth in indignation, Thou threshest the nations in anger. Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck (overflowing with justice Isaiah 28, 8). Selah), He will be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; that He may do His work, strange is His work, and bring to pass His act, strange is His act. Is the plowman never done with plowing to sow, with the opening and harrowing of his ground? When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the black cummin, and scatter the cummin, and put in the wheat in rows and the barley in the appointed place and the spelt in the border For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him (thresh with God spirit). thereof? Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. , Malachi 3 Ye have said: 'It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we have kept His charge (Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples. Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.), and that we have walked mournfully because of the LORD of hosts? And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered.' Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honoured his name. ‘On the day when I act,’ says the Lord Almighty, ‘they will be my treasured possession. I will spare them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son who serves him And you will again see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not. But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings(Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth.); and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I do make, saith the LORD of hosts. Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers; lest I come and smite the land with utter destruction.). Make an uproar, O ye peoples, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. Take counsel together, and it shall be brought to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand; for God is with us. For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, admonishing me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying: 'Say ye not: A conspiracy, concerning all whereof this people do say: A conspiracy; neither fear ye their fear, nor account it dreadful. The LORD of hosts, Him shall ye sanctify; and let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread. And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.' 'Bind up the testimony, seal the instruction among My disciples.' And I will wait for the LORD, that hideth His face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for Him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me shall be for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion.
Isaiah 29
And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';
and the writing is delivered to him that is not learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I am not learned.'
And the Lord said: Forasmuch as this people draw near, and with their mouth and with their lips do honour Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear of Me is a commandment of men learned by rote; Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the prudence of their prudent men shall be hid. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say: 'Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?' O your perversity! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay; that the thing made should say of him that made it: 'He made me not'; or the thing framed say of him that framed it: 'He hath no understanding?'
And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of a book (Psalm 139 I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My frame was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance, and in Thy book they were all written—even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. How weighty also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand; were I to come to the end of them, I would still be with Thee. If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God—depart from me therefore, ye men of blood; Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting. (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;
He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.
) ), and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness. The humble also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the neediest among men shall exult in the Holy One of Israel. For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner ceaseth, and all they that watch for iniquity are cut off; That make a man an offender by words, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just with a thing of nought. When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.
Isaiah 33 Now will I arise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift Myself up. Ye conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble; your breath is a fire that shall devour you. And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime; as thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might. The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'
Obad 1
How is Esau searched out! How are his hidden places sought out (Isaiah 8, 28)! All the men of thy confederacy have conducted thee to the border; the men that were at peace with thee have beguiled thee, and prevailed against thee; they that eat thy bread lay a snare under thee, in whom there is no discernment. Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and discernment out of the mount of Esau?
Isaiah 40
To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness (Psalm17, Job 25How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?) will ye compare unto Him? Know ye not? hear ye not? Hath it not been told you from the beginning? Have ye not understood the foundations of the earth? To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? saith the Holy One. Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel: 'My way is hid from the LORD, and my right is passed over from my God'? Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? His discernment is past searching out.
Jeremiah 22 For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before Me, saith the Lord GOD.
Malachi 3 But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire(Plumb line), and like fullers' soap;
Malachi 3 And now we call the proud (Habakkuk 2 Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith.) happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered. Then they that feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before Him, for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His name. But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
Nahum 2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.— Isaiah 19 And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof (Isaiah 57, 28); and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits. Jeremiah 19 and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Zechariah 1:11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said: 'We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.' Jeremiah 30 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. Zechariah 6 Then cried he upon me, and spoke unto me, saying: 'Behold, they that go toward the north country have eased My spirit in the north country(Ezekiel 1 And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire flashing up, so that a brightness was round about it; and out of the midst thereof as the colour of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.). Isaiah 14 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet; they break forth into singing. Isaiah 24 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. Jeremiah 51 And I will send unto Babylon strangers, that shall fan her, and they shall empty her land; for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
Jeremiah 17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond; it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars. Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD . Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceeding weak—who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. Thou throne of glory, on high from the beginning, thou place of our sanctuary Thou hope of Israel, the LORD! All that forsake Thee shall be ashamed; they that depart from Thee shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for Thou art my praise. Behold, they say unto me: 'Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now. (Zechariah 5 Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land(the word); for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it.)' As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after Thee; neither have I desired the woeful day; Thou knowest it; that which came out of my lips was manifest before Thee. Be not a ruin unto me; Thou art my refuge in the day of evil. Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; Let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction ( (plummet of emptiness)
'Behold your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One(Isaiah 28 the Lord has cone who is mighty and strong;
like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. Habakkuk 2 Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith.), and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath meted out the spirit of the LORD? Or who was His counsellor that he might instruct Him? With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of right, and taught Him knowledge, and made Him to know the way of discernment? (Isaiah 28 For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him. This also comes forth from the LORD of Hosts, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.) Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket (Efa, measure), and are counted as the small dust of the balance; behold the isles are as a mote in weight.
Psalm 7 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked(Zechariah 5 And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land— And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.). If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me; (Isaiah 42 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth. He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching.) Let the enemy pursue my soul (He make his bed because he turn not away Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. All we like sheep did go astray, we turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath made to light on him the iniquity of us all., And they made his grave with the wicked (a bed), and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Isaiah 50 Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is My hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish become foul, because there is no water, and die for thirst. Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish become foul, because there is no water, and die for thirst. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting.), and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth(Ezekiel 32 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth (
Jeremiah 49 And I will bring against Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds (Ezekiel 12 And I will disperse toward every wind all that are round about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.); and there shall be no nation whither the dispersed of Elam shall not come. And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them; Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.), who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set her a bed (Isaiah 53 And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear (was wicked by us). Job 20 He draweth it forth, and it cometh out of his body (Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue;); yea, the glittering point (Sword)cometh out of his gall; terrors are upon him (Eccl12 Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and terrors shall be in the way; and the almond-tree shall blossom (Jeremiah 1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying: 'Jeremiah, what seest thou?' And I said: 'I see a rod of an almond-tree.(plumb line, God word, Menorah, heifer, Number 17 Aaron rod)' Then said the LORD unto me: 'Thou hast well seen; for I watch over My word to perform it.'(Ezekiel 7 Behold the day; behold, it cometh; the turn is come forth; the rod hath blossomed, arrogancy hath budded (Habakkuk 2 And the LORD answered me, and said: 'Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that a man may read it swiftly. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith. Malachi 3 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered.' Then they that feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before Him, for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His name. And they shall be Mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in the day that I do make, even Mine own treasure; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.). Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness(terror); nought cometh from them, nor from their tumult, nor from their turmoil, neither is there eminency among them. Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked (Isaiah 30 And the LORD will cause His glorious voice to be heard, and will show the lighting down of His arm, with furious anger, and the flame of a devouring fire, with a bursting of clouds, and a storm of rain, and hailstones. For through the voice of the LORD shall Asshur be dismayed, the rod with which He smote. And in every place where the appointed staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps; and in battles of wielding will He fight with them. For a hearth is ordered of old; yea, for the king it is prepared, deep and large; the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.). Isaiah 14 Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent(seraph). And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety; and I will kill thy root with famine, and thy remnant shall be slain.Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke (terror) out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks. What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.)(Psalm 55 Smoother than cream were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords(terror)(Proverb 15 A soft answer turneth away wrath; but a grievous word stirreth up anger. The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright; but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness The eyes of the LORD (Plumb line, stone grace) are in every place, keeping watch upon the evil and the good. A soothing tongue is a tree of life; but perverseness therein is a wound to the spirit. A fool despiseth his father's correction; but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. In the house of the righteous is much treasure; but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. The lips of the wise disperse knowledge; but the heart of the foolish is not stedfast. The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD; but the prayer(sacrifice) of the upright is His delight.There is grievous correction for him that forsaketh the way; and he that hateth reproof shall die. The nether-world and Destruction are before the LORD; how much more then the hearts of the children of men!(his eye in all earth (plumb line, justice the line, thruth the plummet Isaiah 28) Jeremiah 17, Zechariah 4, 5 their eye in all earth(wickdness, sin) Better is little with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure and turmoil therewith. The LORD is far from the wicked; but He heareth the prayer of the righteous (he cause him to be near (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.) to cease sinners(Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed (Jeremiah 1 Then said the LORD unto me: 'Thou hast well seen; for I watch over My word to perform it.') the purposes of His heart (He heareth the prayer of the righteous); in the end of days ye shall consider it. Prov 15 A soft answer turneth away wrath) and then save him (Jacob) from the bigger than him Jeremiah 31 ) .)) .)), and the grasshopper shall drag itself along, and the caperberry shall fail; because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets;). Deu 32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter; Their wine is the venom of serpents, and the cruel poison of asps. 'Is not this laid up in store with Me, sealed up in My treasuries (in the dark place Malachi 3 Ye are cursed with the curse, yet ye rob Me, even this whole nation. Bring ye the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall be more than sufficiency. And they shall be Mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in the day that I do make, even Mine own treasure; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.)? Job 20 He shall suck the poison of asps; the viper's tongue shall slay him (Isaiah 11 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the basilisk's den Deu 32 He made him ride on the high places (Isaiah 58) of the earth, and he did eat the fruitage of the field; and He made him to suck honey out of the crag, and oil out of the flinty rock (Job 28 He putteth forth his hand upon the flinty rock; He overturneth the mountains by the roots. But wisdom, where shall it be found? And where is the place of understanding? Isaiah 50 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. (Job 28 And unto man He said: 'Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.')); Curd of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and he-goats, with the kidney-fat of wheat; and of the blood of the grape thou drankest foaming wine(Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.). The Rock, His work is perfect; for all His ways are justice; a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is He. .).Job 20 He shall not look upon the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and curd(the wicked)(Job 29 when my steps were washed with butter,
and the rock poured out streams of oil for me,). That which he laboured for shall he give back, and shall not swallow it down; according to the substance that he hath gotten, he shall not rejoice. Because he knew no quietness within him(rest antonym of Yeshua), in his greed he suffered nought to escape(God save him), There was nothing left that he devoured not—therefore his prosperity shall not endure (portion with the mightiest). All darkness is laid up for his treasures (Deu 32 'Is not this laid up in store with Me, sealed up in My treasuries ); a fire not blown by man shall consume him(spirit, sword); it shall go ill with him that is left in his tent. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth shall rise up against him.(heaven reveal his treasure with the rich Isaiah 53 antonym) Job 13 Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it(Isaiah 50). What ye know, do I know also; I am not inferior unto you. Notwithstanding I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God. But ye are plasterers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value. Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him; but I will argue my ways before Him. This also shall be my salvation, that a hypocrite cannot come before Him. Hear diligently my speech, and let my declaration be in your ears. Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified. Who is he that will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and die. Only do not two things unto me, then will I not hide myself from Thee (Psalm 139): Withdraw Thy hand far from me; and let not Thy terror make me afraid. Then call Thou, and I will answer; or let me speak, and answer Thou me. How many are mine iniquities and sins? Make me to know my transgression and my sin. Wherefore hidest Thou Thy face, and holdest me for Thine enemy? That Thou shouldest write bitter things against me, and make me to inherit the iniquities of my youth. Shall not His majesty terrify you, and His dread fall upon you?. Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; Thou drawest Thee a line about the soles of my feet;); terrors are upon him This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God. All darkness is laid up for his treasures; a fire not blown by man shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tent. Psalm 139 If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed (Job 17 If I look for the nether-world as my house; if I have spread (my bed )my couch in the darkness; Psalm 6 I am weary with my groaning; every night make I my bed to swim (Isaiah 25 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill. And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim (Bed in the netherworld), his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands. And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.(Isaiah 57 Upon a high and lofty mountain hast thou set thy bed; thither also wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.)); I melt away my couch with my tears. Ezekiel 17 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.') in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there. Proverb 30 Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest?)in the midst of the slain with all her multitude (they crush him); her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword(Isaiah 29 And I will encamp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with a mound, and I will raise siege works against thee. (Nahum 2 A maul is come up before thy face; guard the defences, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily!â) ); because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in the midst of them that are slain. And they that are inferior to the uncircumcised shall not lie with the mighty that are gone down to the nether-world with their weapons of war, whose swords are laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon their bones ((Isaiah 22 The burden concerning the Valley of Vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops, Thou that art full of uproar, a tumultuous city, a joyous town? Thy slain are not slain with the sword,(by the spirit/breadth of God Zechariah 4, Isaiah 59) nor dead in battle. All thy rulers are fled together, without the bow they are bound; all that are found of thee are bound together, they are fled afar off. Isaiah 21 The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again.” Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Ezekiel 37 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and the LORD carried me out in a spirit, and set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones; and He caused me to pass by them round about(Genesis 15 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and there was thick darkness, behold a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces. And He said unto him: 'Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.' And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not. And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. And it came to pass, that, when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram Now terror and great darkness fell on him. (Isaiah 29 Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink.); and, lo, a dread, even a great darkness, fell upon him. For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered. And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';), and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And He said unto me: 'Son of man, can these bones live?' And I answered: 'O Lord GOD, Thou knowest.'
Ezekiel 37 Valley of dry bones, Joel 3 Valley of God is Judge(Isaiah 33), Judge 15 As he , Joel 3 Valley of God is Judge(Isaiah 33), Judge 15 As he approached Lehi, the Philistines came towards him shouting. The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon him. The ropes on his arms became like charred flax, and the bindings dropped from his hands. And he found a new jawbone of an ass(Zechariah 9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly (poor, humble, needy), and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.(Genesis 49 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washeth his garments in wine(drunk them Isaiah 63), and his vesture in the blood of grapes;
Deuto 21 If one be found slain in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath smitten him; then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain. And it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd (Number 19 This is the statute of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying: Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer, faultless, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke. And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of sprinkling; it is a purification from sin. And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even; and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever.), which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke. And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a rough valley, which may neither be plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer's neck there in the valley. And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near—for them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto Him, and to bless in the name of the LORD; and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be. And all the elders of that city, who are nearest unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley. And they shall speak and say: 'Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it. Forgive, O LORD, Thy people Israel, whom Thou hast redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood to remain in the midst of Thy people Israel.' And the blood shall be forgiven them. So shalt thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD. When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and the LORD thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive. 1 Samuel 16 And Samuel said: 'How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me.' And the LORD said: 'Take a heifer with thee, and say: I am come to sacrifice to the LORD. Jeremiah 48 With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for thee, O vine of Sibmah; thy branches passed over the sea, they reached even to the sea of Jazer; upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage the spoiler is fallen. And gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the winepresses; none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting. From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, even unto (Jahaz/ Trodden down) have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim(weeping), a heifer of three years old; for the Waters of Nimrim also shall be desolate. Isaiah 15 In their streets they gird themselves with sackcloth; on their housetops, and in their broad places, every one howleth, weeping profusely. And Heshbon crieth out, and Elealeh; their voice is heard (even unto)(Eglon, calf-like "Young cow") (Jahaz/ Trodden down); therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud; his soul is faint within him. My heart crieth out for Moab; her fugitives reach unto Zoar(weeping), a heifer of three years old; (Jeremiah 31 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.

And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of the LORD (), to the corn, and to the wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered garden, and they shall not pine any more at all.) for by the ascent of Luhith with weeping they go up; for in the way of Horonaim they raise up a cry of destruction. (Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' (Lion of God Ariel Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God. And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of a book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness. The humble also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the neediest among men shall exult in the Holy One of Israel. Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale; When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.) And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.'(Jeremiah 31For there shall be a day, that the watchmen shall call upon the mount Ephraim: arise ye, and let us go up to Zion, unto the LORD our God.') Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.(Jeremiah 31 For thus saith the LORD: Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout at the head of the nations; announce ye, praise ye, and say: 'O LORD, save Thy people, The remnant of Israel.' Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together; a great company shall they return hither. They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.

And He will set up an ensign for the nations, and will assemble the dispersed of Israel, and gather together the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth.)Set thee up waymarks, make thee guide-posts; set thy heart toward the high-way, even the way by which thou wentest; Return, O virgin of Israel, return to these thy cities. )); his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction. Isaiah 16 Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from the crags that are toward the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion. 'Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive. And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness. Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh; for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen. And gladness and joy are taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting; no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease. (Isaiah 63 'Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength?'—'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.'— 'Wherefore is Thine apparel red, and Thy garments like his that treadeth in the winevat? 'I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no man with Me; yea, I trod them in Mine anger, and trampled them in My fury; and their lifeblood is dashed against My garments, and I have stained all My raiment.

The zeal of the LORD of hosts doth perform this. The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel. Jeremiah 48 Make ye him drunken, for he magnified himself against the LORD; and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision. on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.

And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath-lehi ("height of a jawbone"a place by the rock Elam in northern Judah (valley of dry bones) ). And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said: 'Thou hast given this great deliverance by the hand of Thy servant; and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?' But God cleaved the hollow place that is in Lehi, and there came water thereout(brook, fountain); and when he had drunk (drink the cup), his spirit came back^, and he revived; wherefore the name thereof was called En-hakkore ("spring of One calling" valley of the dry bones that revived

Zechariah 12
Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of staggering unto all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also shall it fall to be in the siege against Jerusalem.
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon (height of a jawbone" a place by the rock Elam who fall). Joel 3 And the LORD shall roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the LORD will be a refuge unto His people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel. So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion My holy mountain; then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land. Zechariah 13 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'

For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised (Elam Jeremiah 49 And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them;), with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.'); yea, let him lay my glory in the dust.

Jeremiah 49 And I will set My throne in Elam (Isaiah 29 And brought down thou shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust; and thy voice shall be as of a ghost out of the ground, and thy speech shall chirp out of the dust. But the multitude of thy foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passeth away; yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly— There shall be a visitation from the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.

Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; Zechariah 8 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.(Immanuel, Cyrus Isaiah 44 & 45)'), and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD. Isaiah 40 To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness will ye compare unto Him? Know ye not? hear ye not? Hath it not been told you from the beginning? Have ye not understood the foundations of the earth? To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? saith the Holy One. Isaiah 63 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.

Psalm 85 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other. Truth springeth out of the earth; and righteousness hath looked down from heaven.
Isaiah 55 For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
2 Samuel 23 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.' For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow? But the ungodly, they are as thorns thrust away, all of them, for they cannot be taken with the hand;

Isaiah 33 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might(My servant).The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'

(Isaiah 42 He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching.)
Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins. My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge (Isaiah 33 Righterous), yea, a God that hath indignation every day: Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Isaiah 42 Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness (Jeremiah 30 call thee near to God), and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations (Isaiah 32 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever. And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places. And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley. Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth freely the feet of the ox and the ass.);

Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the boughs with terror(Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone Isaiah 65 Behold, it is written before Me; I will not keep silence, except I have requited, yea, I will requite into their bosom, Your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, that have offered upon the mountains, and blasphemed Me upon the hills; therefore will I first measure their wage into their bosom.) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53) I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. ); and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be laid low. And He shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one (Ezekiel 17 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell (Isaiah 25:10 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill. And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim (Isaiah 14 I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts. The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying: Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand, That I will break Asshur in My land, and upon My mountains tread him under foot; then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulder. This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out (Exodus 3 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. And the LORD said: 'I have surely seen the affliction of My people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their pains; and I am come down (the Angel of יְהֹוָה) to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. And He said: 'Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be the token unto thee, that I have sent thee: when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.' And I know that the king of Egypt will not give you leave to go, except by a mighty hand. And I will put forth My hand, and smite Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in the midst thereof. And after that he will let you go.), and who shall turn it back? Isaiah 22 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.) , his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands. And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.)).) For, behold, I will shake My hand over them, and they shall be a spoil to those that served them'; and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me. 'Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion; for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD. And many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be My people, and I will dwell in the midst of thee'; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
2 Samuel 1 And they wailed, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. And David said unto him: 'Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying: I have slain the LORD'S anointed.'. And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son, and said—To teach the sons of Judah the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jashar: Thy beauty, O Israel, upon thy high places is slain! How are the mighty fallen! How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished! Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of choice fruits; for there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil. From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty. (Zechariah 12 )
Ekeziel 21 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of those to be slain; it is the sword of the great one that is to be slain, which compasseth them about.
2King 21 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down (by line, with the measure, and plummet(justice and righteouness)).Isaiah 34 But the pelican and the bittern shall possess it, and the owl and the raven shall dwell therein; and He shall stretch over it the line of confusion, and the plummet of emptiness. Zechariah 5 Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land; for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it. And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth. (bucket/Efa)' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land (plummet) and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.' And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.(Over him) And he said unto me: 'To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.. (plummet of emptiness) Proverb 21 To do justly is joy to the righteous(to the plumb line that is in Zion, the stone of Grace), but ruin to the workers of iniquity plumbline Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Jeremiah 16 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.). and say unto them: Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates; thus saith the LORD: Take heed for the sake of your souls, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; then shall there enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city shall be inhabited for ever. And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the Lowland, and from the mountains, and from the South, bringing burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and meal-offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving, unto the house of the LORD. But if ye will not hearken unto Me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
v Thus saith the LORD: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor; and do no wrong, do no violence, to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place. For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people. But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by Myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation. Then they shall answer: 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.' Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by injustice; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not his hire; Shalt thou reign, because thou strivest to excel in cedar? Did not thy father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him. He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Is not this to know Me? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 23 Woe unto the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture! saith the LORD. And I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, saith the LORD. Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous shoot, and he shall reign as king and prosper, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The LORD is our righteousness. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt'; but: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up and that led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whither I had driven them'; and they shall dwell in their own land. Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome; because of the LORD, and because of His holy words. For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth, the pastures of the wilderness are dried up; and their course is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are ungodly; yea, in My house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD. Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery places in the darkness, they shall be thrust, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 58
Yet they seek Me daily, and delight to know My ways; as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God, they ask of Me righteous ordinances, they delight to draw near unto God.
Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the fetters of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy healing shall spring forth speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee, the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward. Then shalt thou call, and the LORD will answer; thou shalt cry, and He will say: 'Here I am.' If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedness; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in darkness, and thy gloom be as the noon-day; And the LORD will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places, thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called The repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in. If thou turn away thy foot because of the sabbath, from pursuing thy business on My holy day (Deut 10 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul; to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day? Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day. Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward. He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear. He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen. Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.); and call the sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honourable; and shalt honour it, not doing thy wonted ways, nor pursuing thy business, nor speaking thereof; Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD, and I will make thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and I will feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that He may establish the word which the LORD swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Jesus (Yeshua) answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognise him. John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, ‘I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, “Make straight the way for the Lord.”’ Then John gave this testimony: ‘I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him. I have seen and I testify that this is God’s Chosen One.’ When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, ‘Look, the Lamb of God!’
Isaiah 5 Therefore My people are gone into captivity, For want of knowledge; And their honourable men are famished, And their multitude are parched with thirst’'
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed (Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.), and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Hark! one calleth: 'Clear ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make plain in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the rugged shall be made level, and the rough places a plain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah: 'Behold your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One, and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath meted out the spirit of the LORD? Or who was His counsellor that he might instruct Him? With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of right, and taught Him knowledge, and made Him to know the way of discernment? Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance; behold the isles are as a mote in weight.
Zechariah 5 And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land (Iniquity, measured of the waters, measure of dust, balance, scales)— and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.' And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
Amos 7
Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand. And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline (lead-weight).' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
Micah 7
I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against Him; until He plead my cause, and execute judgment for me; He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold His righteousness.
Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up. Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
Isaiah 53
Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.
All we like sheep did go astray, we turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath made to light on him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth.
By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due.
And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Zechariah 13
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
Amos 7
but prophesy not again any more at Beth-el, for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal house.'
Hoshea 10
So hath Beth-el done unto you because of your great wickedness; at daybreak is the king of Israel utterly cut off.
Zechariah 13
And it shall come to pass that, when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begot him shall say unto him: 'Thou shalt not live, for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD'; and his father and his mother that begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be brought to shame every one through his vision, when he prophesieth; neither shall they wear a hairy mantle to deceive;
but he shall say: 'I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for I have been made a bondman from my youth.'
Amos 7
Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah: 'I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdman, and a dresser of sycamore-trees;
and the LORD took me from following the flock, and the LORD said unto me: Go, prophesy unto My people Israel. Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest: Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac;
Zechariah 13
And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'
Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts (Psalm 80 Let Thy hand be upon the man of Thy right hand, upon the son of man whom Thou madest strong for Thyself. So shall we not turn back from Thee; quicken Thou us, and we will call upon Thy name. King of Israel cut off, he deliver the sword and scatter Israel around the Globe); smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones. Isaiah 21 For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Ezekiel 5 A third part shalt thou burn in the fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled; and thou shalt take a third part, and smite it with the sword round about her; and a third part thou shalt scatter to the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them. Ezekiel 12 And I will disperse toward every wind all that are round about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.
Psalm 55
He hath redeemed my soul in peace so that none came nigh me; for they were many that strove with me.
But it was thou, a man mine equal, my companion, and my familiar friend; God shall hear, and humble them, even He that is enthroned of old, Selah , such as have no changes, and fear not God. He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream (butter, curd-like) were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords(Isaiah 49 And He hath made my mouth like a sharp sword (Isaiah 11 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.(sword)), in the shadow of His hand hath He hid me; and He hath made me a polished shaft, in His quiver hath He concealed me; Ezekiel 21 And thou, son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their taunt; and say thou: O sword, O sword keen-edged, furbished for the slaughter, to the uttermost, because of the glitterings; Number 22 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, with his sword drawn in his hand; and he bowed his head, and fell on his face. Josh 5 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand; and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him: 'Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?' 1 chronicle 21 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD standing between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces. Job 20 He draweth it forth, and it cometh out of his body; yea, the glittering point (sword) cometh out of his gall; terrors are upon him. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God. Ezekiel 21 and all flesh shall know that I the LORD have drawn forth My sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more. Micah 5 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the keen-edged sword; and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our border. Ezekiel 32 They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword; she is delivered to the sword; draw her down and all her multitudes.). Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He will sustain thee; He will never suffer the righteous to be moved. But Thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the nethermost pit; men of blood and deceit shall not live out half their days; but as for me, I will trust in Thee.
Zechariah 11
This is what the Lord my God says: ‘Shepherd the flock marked for slaughter. whose buyers slay them, and hold themselves not guilty; and they that sell them say: Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich; and their own shepherds pity them not. So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Graciousness (Zechariah 4 Who art thou, O great mountain before Zerubbabel? thou shalt become a plain; and he shall bring forth the top stone with shoutings of Grace, grace, unto it.'), and the other I called Binders; and I fed the flock. And I cut off the three shepherds in one month (Zehariah 13 also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land. ); 'for My soul became impatient of them, and their soul also loathed Me.' And I took my staff Graciousness, and cut it asunder, 'that I might break My covenant which I had made with all the peoples.' And it was broken in that day; and the poor of the flock that gave heed unto me knew of a truth that it was the word of the LORD. Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Binders, that the brotherhood between Judah and Israel might be broken. And the LORD said unto me: 'Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd. For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not think of those that are cut off, neither will seek those that are young, nor heal that which is broken; neither will he feed that which standeth still, but he will eat the flesh of the fat, and will break their hoofs in pieces.' Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaveth the flock! The sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye; his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
Micah 5
Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days.
Psalm 32 Happy is the man unto whom the LORD counteth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile. When I kept silence, my bones wore away through my groaning all the day long. For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me; my sap was turned as in the droughts of summer. Selah I acknowledged my sin unto Thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid; I said: 'I will make confession concerning my transgressions unto the LORD'—and Thou, Thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah For this let every one that is godly pray unto Thee in a time when Thou mayest be found; surely, when the great waters overflow, they will not reach unto him. Thou art my hiding-place; Thou wilt preserve me from the adversary; with songs of deliverance Thou wilt compass me about. Selah 'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will give counsel, Mine eye being upon thee.' Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, that they come not near unto thee. Many are the sorrows of the wicked; but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy compasseth him about. Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
Micah 7
Woe is me! for I am as the last of the summer fruits (Amos 7, Zechariah 13 The plumb line/The herdman and the tiller of the ground/bondman(servant Jacob/David)/sheppard his friend near God(Jeremiah 30 cause to call him near)), as the grape gleanings of the vintage; there is no cluster to eat; nor first-ripe fig which my soul desireth. Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a familiar friend; keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom. Then mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her; who said unto me: Where is the LORD thy God? Mine eyes shall gaze upon her; now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.' The day for building thy walls, even that day, shall be far removed.' There shall be a day when they shall come unto thee, from Assyria even to the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
'As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things.'
The nations shall see and be put to shame for all their might; they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
They shall lick the dust like a serpent; like crawling things of the earth they shall come trembling out of their close places; they shall come with fear unto the LORD our God, and shall be afraid because of Thee.
Who is a God like unto Thee, that pardoneth the iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He retaineth not His anger for ever, because He delighteth in mercy.
He will again have compassion upon us; He will subdue our iniquities; and Thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
Psalm 33
He loveth righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; He layeth up the deeps in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. The LORD bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect. The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations. Happy is the nation whose God is the LORD; the people whom He hath chosen for His own inheritance. The LORD looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men; From the place of His habitation He looketh intently upon all the inhabitants of the earth; He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their doings. A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. Behold, the (Plumb line) eye of the LORD is toward them that fear Him, toward them that wait for His mercy; To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. For in Him doth our heart rejoice, because we have trusted in His holy name. Let Thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we have waited for Thee.
Psalm 132
How he swore unto the LORD, and vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
'Surely I will not come into the tent of my house, nor go up into the bed that is spread for me;
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids;
Until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling-place for the Mighty One of Jacob.' Lo, we heard of it as being in Ephrath; we found it in the field of the wood. Let us go into His dwelling-place; let us worship at His footstool. Arise, O LORD, unto Thy resting-place; Thou, and the ark of Thy strength. For Thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of Thine anointed. The LORD swore unto David in truth; He will not turn back from it: 'Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. If thy children keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.' For the LORD hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation: 'This is My resting-place for ever; here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will abundantly bless her provision; I will give her needy bread in plenty.
There will I make a horn to shoot up unto David, there have I ordered a lamp for Mine anointed. And he said unto me: 'What seest thou?' And I said: 'I have seen, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes, yea, seven, to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
Then said he: 'These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.' and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.' Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. (Psalm 33 A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth (Isaiah 11 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked(sword)).)
Zechariah 14 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when He fighteth in the day of battle.And His feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleft in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, so that there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel; yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with Thee. (Amos 1:2 THE WORDS of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake. And he said: The LORD roareth from Zion, and uttereth His voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither. Thus saith the LORD: For three transgressions of Judah, yea, for four, I will not reverse it: because they have rejected the law of the LORD, and have not kept His statutes, and their lies have caused them to err, after which their fathers did walk. So will I send a fire upon Judah (Isaiah 30 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, with His anger burning, and in thick uplifting of smoke (Isaiah 6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple. Proverb 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman(unloved one) when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. There are three things which are stately in their march, yea, four which are stately in going: The lion, which is mightiest among beasts, and turneth not away for any; The greyhound; the he-goat also; and the king, against whom there is no rising up. Isaiah 6 And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. Then said I: Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.(Servant Jacob become king and expiated our sins, now he become a sheppard David)); His lips are full of indignation, and His tongue is as a devouring fire; ), and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem. Thus saith the LORD: For three transgressions of Israel, yea, for four, I will not reverse it: because they sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the humble; and a man and his father go unto the same maid, to profane My holy name; And they lay themselves down beside every altar upon clothes taken in pledge, and in the house of their God they drink the wine of them that have been fined. Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath. Also I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorites. And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazirites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD. But ye gave the Nazirites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying: 'Prophesy not.' Behold, I will make it creak under you, as a cart creaketh that is full of sheaves. And flight shall fail the swift, and the strong shall not exert his strength, neither shall the mighty deliver himself;(prophet, wise men cut off )Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself; neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself; And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.( Psalm 76 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth. Isaiah 30 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: in sitting still and rest shall ye be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye would not. But ye said: 'No, for we will flee upon horses'; therefore shall ye flee; and: 'We will ride upon the swift'; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift. One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one, at the rebuke of five shall ye flee; till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on a hill. And therefore will the LORD wait, that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will He be exalted, that He may have compassion upon you(Isaiah 14 For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land; and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. Jeremiah 31 For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion(Isaiah 40, 57, Nahum 2, Isaiah 52 the servant that become Sheppard Jeremiah 30 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they have called thee an outcast: 'She is Zion, there is none that careth for her (Isaiah 50 & 53). Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will turn the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling-places; and the city shall be builded upon her own mound, and the palace shall be inhabited upon its wonted place. And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry; and I will multiply them, and they shall not be diminished, I will also increase them, and they shall not dwindle away. And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.); for the LORD is a God of justice, happy are all they that wait for Him. For, O people that dwellest in Zion at Jerusalem, thou shalt weep no more; He will surely be gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry, when He shall hear, He will answer thee. And though the Lord give you sparing bread and scant water, yet shall not thy Teacher hide Himself any more, but thine eyes shall see thy Teacher;))
2 Samuel 15 And Absalom used to rise up early, and stand beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said: 'Of what city art thou?' And he said: 'Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.' And Absalom said unto him: 'See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.' Absalom said moreover: 'Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!' And it was so, that when any man came nigh to prostrate himself before him, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him. And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel. And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said unto the king: 'I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron. For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Aram, saying: If the LORD shall indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.' And the king said unto him: 'Go in peace.' So he arose, and went to Hebron. But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying: 'As soon as ye hear the sound of the horn, then ye shall say: Absalom is king in Hebron.' And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom. And there came a messenger to David, saying: 'The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.' And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem: 'Arise, and let us flee; or else none of us shall escape from Absalom; make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.' And the king's servants said unto the king: 'Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall choose.' And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, that were concubines, to keep the house. And the king went forth, and all the people after him; and they tarried in Beth-merhak. And David said to Ittai: 'Go and pass over.' And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him. And all the country wept with a loud voice, as all the people passed over; and as the king passed over the brook Kidron, all the people passed over, toward the way of the wilderness.
And, lo, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God—but Abiathar went up—until all the people had done passing out of the city. And the king said unto Zadok: 'Carry back the ark of God into the city; if I shall find favour in the eyes of the LORD, He will bring me back, and show me both it, and His habitation; but if He say thus: I have no delight in thee; behold, here am I, let Him do to me as seemeth good unto Him.' See, I will tarry in the plains of the wilderness, until there come word from you to announce unto me.' Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem; and they abode there. And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot; and all the people that were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up (Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.). Now David had been told, ‘Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.’ So David prayed, ‘Lord, turn Ahithophel’s counsel into foolishness.’ And it came to pass, that when David was come to the top of the ascent, where God was wont to be worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head. but if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom: I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant in time past, so will I now be thy servant; then wilt thou defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
2 Samuel 16 And the king said unto Ziba: 'What meanest thou by these?' And Ziba said: 'The asses are for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink.' And the king said: 'And where is thy master's son?' And Ziba said unto the king: 'Behold, he abideth at Jerusalem; for he said: To-day will the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.' Then said the king to Ziba: 'Behold, thine is all that pertaineth unto Mephibosheth.' And Ziba said: 'I prostrate myself; let me find favour in thy sight, my lord, O king.' Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king: 'Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king(Psalm 68 That thy foot may wade through blood, that the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.')? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.' And the king said: 'What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse (Isaiah 43 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and I have given Jacob to condemnation, and Israel to reviling. Isaiah 51 Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is My law; fear ye not the taunt of men, neither be ye dismayed at their revilings. Zeph 2 And it shall be a portion for the remnant of the house of Judah, whereon they shall feed; in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the LORD their God will remember them, and turn their captivity. I have heard the taunt of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, wherewith they have taunted My people, and spoken boastfully concerning their border. Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding-place of nettles, and saltpits, and a desolation, for ever; the residue of My people shall spoil them, and the remnant of My nation shall inherit them.), because the LORD hath said unto him: Curse David; who then shall say: Wherefore hast thou done so?' And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants: 'Behold, my son, who came forth of my body, seeketh my life; how much more this Benjamite now? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him. It may be that the LORD will look on mine eye, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing of me this day.(2 King 2 And he looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty and two children of them.)' So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hill-side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust. And Ahithophel said unto Absalom: 'Go in unto thy father's concubines, that he hath left to keep the house; and all Israel will hear that thou art abhorred of thy father; then will the hands of all that are with thee be strong.' So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.— Now the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man inquired of the word of God; so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
2 Samuel 17 Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom: 'Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night;and I will come upon him while he is weary and weak-handed, and will make him afraid; and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only; and I will bring back all the people unto thee; when all shall have returned, save the man whom thou seekest, all the people will be in peace.' And Hushai said unto Absalom: 'The counsel that Ahithophel hath given this time is not good.' Hushai said moreover: 'Thou knowest thy father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are embittered in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field (1 Samuel 17 And David said unto Saul: 'Thy servant kept his father's sheep; and when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock, Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath taunted the armies of the living God.' And David said: 'The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, He will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.' And Saul said unto David: 'Go, and the LORD shall be with thee.' Proverb 17 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly. Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. Isaiah 11 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. Isaiah 59 We all growl like bears (robbed bears), and mourn sore like doves; we look for right, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us. Lamentation 3 He is unto me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in secret places (hid). Hoshea 13 I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the enclosure of their heart (thorns); and there will I devour them like a lioness; the wild beast shall tear them. It is thy destruction, O Israel, that thou art against Me, against thy help. I give thee a king in Mine anger, and take him away in My wrath. For though he be fruitful among the reed-plants, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD coming up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up; he shall spoil the treasure of all precious vessels(Isaiah 21-22, Isaiah 32 I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia-tree, and the myrtle, and the oil-tree; I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together;) Shall I ransom them from the power of the nether-world? Shall I redeem them from death? Ho, thy plagues, O death! Ho, thy destruction, O nether-world! Repentance be hid from Mine eyes!. Amos 5 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; and went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
); and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people. Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some place; and it will come to pass, when they fall upon them at the first (and snare), and whosoever heareth it shall say: There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom; then even he that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion (Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel (Lion of God), and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.(Judge 14 And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down: What is sweeter than honey?(word of God) and what is stronger than a lion? (Lion of God) And he said unto them: If ye had not plowed with my heifer (2 Samuel 23 the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel), ye had not found out my riddle. Ezekiel 3 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee.' Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.)), will utterly melt; for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they that are with him are valiant men. And Absalom and all the men of Israel said: 'The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel.'—For the LORD had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom. And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David; and they said unto David: 'Arise ye, and pass quickly over the water; for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.' And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the elders of Israel. Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan; by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over the Jordan. When David was come to Mahanaim, Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him. and honey, and curd (Water, justice, word of the Lord, Isaiah 7 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall rear a young cow(Heifer, the candlestick, David, Messiah), and two sheep(two anointed ones); and it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give, he shall eat curd; for curd and honey shall every one eat that is left in the midst of the land. And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, shall even be for briers and thorns.), and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him (cross the Jordan), to eat; for they said: 'The people is hungry, and faint, and thirsty, in the wilderness.' (Deu 32 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, and he did eat the fruitage of the field; and He made him to suck honey out of the crag, and oil out of the flinty rock; Curd of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and he-goats, with the kidney-fat of wheat; and of the blood of the grape thou drankest foaming wine. Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price(Job 20 He shall not look upon the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and curd(the wicked Lam 4 Her princes were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was as of sapphire;)(Job 29 when my steps were washed with butter,
and the rock poured out streams of oil for me,)). Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. Psalm 55 For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David. Give ear, O God, to my prayer; and hide not Thyself from my supplication. Attend unto me, and hear me; I am distraught in my complaint, and will moan; Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked; for they cast mischief upon me, and in anger they persecute me. My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me. Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me. And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest. Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. (Psalm 139 If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;) Selah)(Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near(take wings, fly to the wilderness), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked.) I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.' Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongue; for I have seen violence and strife in the city. Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof; iniquity also and mischief are in the midst of it. Wickedness is in the midst thereof; oppression and guile depart not from her broad place. For it was not an enemy that taunted me, then I could have borne it; neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, then I would have hid myself from him. But it was thou, a man mine equal, my companion, and my familiar friend; We took sweet counsel together, in the house of God we walked with the throng. May He incite death against them, let them go down alive into the nether-world; for evil is in their dwelling, and within them. As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. He hath redeemed my soul in peace so that none came nigh me; for they were many that strove with me. God shall hear, and humble them, even He that is enthroned of old, Selah , such as have no changes, and fear not God. He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords. Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He will sustain thee; He will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
2 Samuel 18
And David numbered the people that were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
And David sent forth the people, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said unto the people: 'I will surely go forth with you myself also.' But the people said: 'Thou shalt not go forth; for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us; but thou art worth ten thousand of us: therefore now it is better that thou be ready to succour us out of the city.' And the king said unto them: 'What seemeth you best I will do.' And the king stood by the gate-side, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands. So the people went out into the field against Israel; and the battle was in the forest of Ephraim(Hoshea 10 And Ephraim is a heifer well broken, that loveth to thresh, and I have passed over upon her fair neck; I will make Ephraim to ride, Judah shall plow, Jacob shall break his clods. Sow to yourselves according to righteousness, reap according to mercy, break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, till He come and cause righteousness to rain upon you. Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity, ye have eaten the fruit of lies; for thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. Therefore shall a tumult (roar) arise among thy hosts, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle; the mother was dashed in pieces with her children. So hath Beth-el done unto you because of your great wickedness; at daybreak is the king of Israel utterly cut off. Micah 3 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest. Micah 4 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.). And the people of Israel were smitten there before the servants of David, and there was a great slaughter there that day of twenty thousand men. For the battle was there spread over the face of all the country; and the forest (Micah 5 But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through, treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and there is none to deliver. Micah 7 Tend Thy people with Thy staff, the flock of Thy heritage, that dwell solitarily, as a forest in the midst of the fruitful field; let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old. Isaiah 32And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley. Isaiah 56 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest. Ezekiel 20 and say to the forest of the South: Hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree, it shall not be quenched, even a flaming flame; and all faces from the south to the north shall be seared thereby.) devoured more people that day than the sword devoured. (Josh10 And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died; they were more who died with the hailstones (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;
He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Thy heart shall muse on the terror: 'Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed? Where is he that counted the towers?') than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword. ) And Absalom chanced to meet the servants of David. And Absalom was riding upon his mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great terebinth, and his head caught hold of the terebinth(in the forest), and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went on. And the man said unto Joab: 'Though I should receive a thousand pieces of silver in my hand, yet would I not put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying: Beware that none touch the young man Absalom Then said Joab: 'I may not tarry thus with thee.' And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the terebinth.(Josh 10 And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees; and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.). Otherwise if I had dealt falsely against mine own life—and there is no matter hid from the king—then thou thyself wouldest have stood aloof.' And they took Absalom, and cast him into the great pit in the forest, and raised over him a very great heap of stones; and all Israel fled every one to his tent.— Josh 10 And Joshua said: 'Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them; And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel. 2 Samuel 18 Now David sat between the two gates; and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold a man running alone. Isaiah 21 For thus hath the Lord said unto me: Go, set a watchman; let him declare what he seeth! And when he seeth a troop, horsemen by pairs, a troop of asses, a troop of camels, he shall hearken diligently with much heed. 2 Samuel 18 And the watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said: 'If he be alone, there is tidings in his mouth.' And he came apace, and drew near. And the watchman saw another man running; and the watchman called unto the porter, and said: 'Behold another man running alone.' And the king said: 'He also bringeth tidings.' And the watchman said: 'I think the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok.' And the king said: 'He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.' And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king: 'All is well.' And he bowed down before the king with his face to the earth, and said: 'Blessed be the LORD thy God, who hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.' And the king said: 'Is it well with the young man Absalom?' And Ahimaaz answered: 'When Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was.'And the king said: 'Turn aside, and stand here.' And he turned aside, and stood still. And the king said unto the Cushite: 'Is it well with the young man Absalom?' And the Cushite answered: 'The enemies of my lord the king and all that rise up against thee to do thee hurt, be as that young man is.'Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.' 2 Samuel 18 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept; and as he went, thus he said: 'O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!' Isaiah 21 O thou my threshing, and the winnowing of my floor, that which I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. The watchman said: 'The morning cometh, and also the night—if ye will inquire, inquire ye; return, come.' Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread.
For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. 2 Samuel 19 in that thou lovest them that hate thee, and hatest them that love thee. For thou hast declared this day, that princes and servants are nought unto thee; for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased thee well. Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people; Say unto them: As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? 2 Samuel 19 Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying: 'Behold, the king doth sit in the gate'; and all the people came before the king( Micah 2 The breaker is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them.). Now Israel had fled every man to his tent. And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying: 'The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land from Absalom. And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now, therefore, why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?' And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying: 'Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying: Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house?—For the speech of all Israel was come to the king, to bring him to his house.— Ye are my brethren, ye are my bone and my flesh; wherefore then should ye be the last to bring back the king? And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent unto the king: 'Return thou, and all thy servants.'
So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
For thy servant doth know that I have sinned; therefore, behold, I am come this day the first of all the house of Joseph (Ezekiel 37 say into them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them unto him together with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in My hand. and I will make them one nation in the land, upon the mountains of Israel, and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all; And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, for ever; and David My servant shall be their prince for ever. )to go down to meet my lord the king.'
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said: 'Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD'S anointed?'
And David said: 'What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?'
And the king said unto Shimei: 'Thou shalt not die.' And the king swore unto him.
And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
And it came to pass, when he was come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said unto him: 'Wherefore wentest not thou with me, Mephibosheth?'
And he answered: 'My lord, O king, my servant deceived me; for thy servant said: I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go with the king; because thy servant is lame.
And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thine eyes. (Isaiah 33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.)
And the king said unto Barzillai: 'Come thou over with me, and I will sustain thee with me in Jerusalem.'
Thy servant would but just go over the Jordan with the king; and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?
Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back, that I may die in mine own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.'
And the king answered: 'Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto thee; and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.'
And all the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over; and the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned unto his own place.
So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him; and all the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king: 'Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and brought the king, and his household, over the Jordan, and all David's men with him?' And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel: 'Because the king is near of kin to us; wherefore then are ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's cost? or hath any gift been given us?'( Zechariah 12 And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their heart: 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength through the LORD of hosts their God.')And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said: 'We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than ye; why then did ye despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?' And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer (Zechariah 12 I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire among sheaves)than the words of the men of Israel. Zechariah 12 On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness,’ declares the Lord. ‘I will keep a watchful eye (Zecharia 4 his eye, plumb line) over Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations (Zechariah 5 their eye over the earth). In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with bewilderment, and his rider with madness; and I will open Mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness. And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their heart: 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength through the LORD of hosts their God.' In that day will I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire among sheaves; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem. The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified above Judah. In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. 2 Samuel 19 And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thine eyes. 2 Samuel 14 Then thy handmaid said: Let, I pray thee, the word of my lord the king be for my comfort; for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad; and the LORD thy God be with thee.' to change the face of the matter hath thy servant Joab done this thing; and my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all things that are in the earth.'
Zechariah 12 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. And the land shall mourn, every family apart: the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart; (Ezekiel 37 two stick become one say into them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them unto him together with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in My hand. and I will make them one nation in the land, upon the mountains of Israel, and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all; And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them. Jeremiah 33 Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season;' As the host of heaven cannot be numbered (The same promise Jacob/Joseph & David), neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them. Thus saith the LORD: If My covenant be not with day and night, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David My servant (Messiah executing both role servant Ben Joseph and sheppard/a king Ben David), so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.')
Messiah is waiting for you to cross over (He put your enemy as a bridge by the gird/break of his loins he become exalted Number 24 and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted(By offering himself (like Esther & Mardocai in sackcloth and repentance for Israel sins) and the gird of his loin low he is higher In Heaven(Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked (Zechariah 13:7), therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes. (Isaiah 52 According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.))). He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness (as servant and sacrifice, Jacob - 2 Samuel 6 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded (be base in mine own sight) with a linen ephod (Prophesy the Priesthood of Messiah). And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry. And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight (Psalm 50 Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me (Malachi 1 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master; (Proverb 30 For a servant when he reigneth(by honoring his master)), if then I be a father, where is My honour? and if I be a master, where is My fear?(Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you(jealously); therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.' Number 25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.') saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests(who is your father and master, Messiah as Hight Priest serve as Servant and obey as Son like Phinehas for his jealousy the purpose of his heart (Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart; in the end of days ye shall consider it.)), that despise My name. And ye say: 'Wherein have we despised Thy name?' ); and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.' 'Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.' If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof. Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High; And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt honour Me.' Isaiah 66 Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me? And where is the place that may be My resting-place? For all these things hath My hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith the LORD; but on this man will I look (2 Samuel 7 And Nathan said to the king: 'Go, do all that is in thy heart; for the LORD is with thee.' And I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disquieted no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as at the first, even from the day that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel; and I will cause thee to rest from all thine enemies. Moreover the LORD telleth thee that the LORD will make thee a house.(Psalm 127 A Song of Ascents; of Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it; except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.)), even on him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word. When thy days are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, that shall proceed out of thy body, and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son; if he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men; but My mercy shall not depart from him(God made him Jealousy), as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee. And thy house and thy kingdom shall be made sure for ever before thee; thy throne shall be established for ever. (He was jealousy for his father Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. Isaiah 53 He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth. Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you; therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.')'); and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.'(Proverb 30 For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. ,Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God. Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. There is a generation that curse their father, and do not bless their mother. The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young vultures shall eat it. Malachi 1 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master; if then I be a father, where is My honour? and if I be a master, where is My fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise My name. And ye say: 'Wherein have we despised Thy name?' Proverb 30 The greyhound(girded loins/ crushed Isaiah 63 'Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength (Job 40 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox (Job 39 Will the wild-ox unicorn (Number 24 God who brought him forth out of Egypt is for him like the lofty horns of the wild-ox; he shall eat up the nations that are his adversaries, and shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them through with his arrows.) be willing to serve thee? Or will he abide by thy crib? Canst thou bind the wild-ox with his band in the furrow? Or will he harrow the valleys after thee? Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? Or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?). Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the stays of his body. He is the beginning of the ways of God (Proverb 8 The LORD made me as the beginning of His way, the first of His works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee. The saying of him who heareth the words of God, and knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes (Servant Jacob with the top stone(the plummet of Zerubbabel) of shouting of Grace, grace, unto it): I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Jacob(Cyrus, David), and a scepter shall rise out of Israel(Sheppard's staff as Cyrus with God brightness Isaiah 60), and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth. Micah 2:13 The breaker (Psalm 93 Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea, the LORD on high is mighty.) is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them(Isaiah 52 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger of good tidings, that announceth peace, the harbinger of good tidings, that announceth salvation; that saith unto Zion: 'Thy God reigneth!' For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward.). Isaiah 51 Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering (Isaiah 22 The burden concerning the Valley of Vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops, Thou that art full of uproar, a tumultuous city, a joyous town? Thy slain are not slain with the sword,(by the spirit/breadth of God Zechariah 4, Isaiah 59) nor dead in battle. All thy rulers are fled together, without the bow they are bound; all that are found of thee are bound together, they are fled afar off. Isaiah 21 The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again.” Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Ezekiel 37 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and the LORD carried me out in a spirit, and set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones; and He caused me to pass by them round about(Genesis 15 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and there was thick darkness, behold a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces. And He said unto him: 'Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.' And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not. And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. And it came to pass, that, when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram Now terror and great darkness fell on him. (Isaiah 29 Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink.); and, lo, a dread, even a great darkness, fell upon him. For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered. And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';), and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And He said unto me: 'Son of man, can these bones live?' And I answered: 'O Lord GOD, Thou knowest.' Zechariah 12 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of staggering unto all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also shall it fall to be in the siege against Jerusalem. Zechariah 9 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Jeremiah 51 'The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon', shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and: 'My blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea', shall Jerusalem say. Therefore thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry. John 18 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? Matthew 26 For this is my blood of the new testament(covenant), which is shed for many for the remission of sins. Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. Mark 14 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt. Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isaiah 53 'Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the LORD been revealed? Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God. Isaiah 51 Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine; Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering; the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again;); the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again; And I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; that have said to thy soul: 'Bow down, that we may go over'; and thou hast laid thy back as the ground, and as the street, to them that go over. ) the Jordan and posses the land with his reign. Isaiah 52 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments,(Psalm 50, Isaiah 33) O Jerusalem (Zechariah 12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a stone of burden for all the peoples; all that burden themselves with it shall be sore wounded; and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it. In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with bewilderment, and his rider with madness; and I will open Mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness. Zechariah 9 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off, and he shall speak peace unto the nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.), the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Jeremiah 51 Ye that have escaped the sword, go ye, stand not still; remember the LORD from afar, and let Jerusalem come into your mind. Isaiah 21 Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, (Isaiah 50 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.) and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples(Habakkuk 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. And the LORD answered me, and said: 'Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that a man may read it swiftly. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him (Proverb 8 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil; pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.); but the righteous shall live by his faith (Isaiah 28 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it,). Malachi 3 But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered.'), a prince and commander to the peoples. Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. 2 Samuel 7 And Nathan said to the king: 'Go, do all that is in thy heart; for the LORD is with thee.'(Messiah as Hight Priest serve as Servant and obey as Son like Phinehas for his jealousy the purpose of his heart (Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart(Psalm 7 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah); in the end of days ye shall consider it.) Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught.(instruct his heart) The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. Isaiah 53 He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth. Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand:)
Psalm 132
How he swore unto the LORD, and vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
'Surely I will not come into the tent of my house, nor go up into the bed that is spread for me;
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids;
Until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling-place for the Mighty One of Jacob.' Lo, we heard of it as being in Ephrath; we found it in the field of the wood. Let us go into His dwelling-place; let us worship at His footstool. Arise, O LORD, unto Thy resting-place; Thou, and the ark of Thy strength. For Thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of Thine anointed. The LORD swore unto David in truth; He will not turn back from it: 'Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. If thy children keep My covenant and My testimony that I shall teach them, their children also for ever shall sit upon thy throne.' For the LORD hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation: 'This is My resting-place for ever; here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will abundantly bless her provision; I will give her needy bread in plenty.
There will I make a horn to shoot up unto David, there have I ordered a lamp for Mine anointed. And he said unto me: 'What seest thou?' And I said: 'I have seen, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and its seven lamps thereon; there are seven pipes, yea, seven, to the lamps, which are upon the top thereof;
Then said he: 'These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.' and two olive-trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.' Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. (Psalm 33 A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth (Isaiah 11 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked(sword)).)
Isaiah 7 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.' And he said: 'Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also? Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
He will be eating curds(young cow, heifer) and honey(bee) when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall rear a young cow(the candlestick), (Genesis 15 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and there was thick darkness, behold a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces. And He said unto him: 'Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old,(two sheep) and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove(poor sacrifice), ( (Zechariah 9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly (poor, humble, needy), and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass. Micah 5 But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. Leviticus 12 And if her means suffice not for a lamb, then she shall take two turtle-doves, or two young pigeons: the one for a burnt-offering, and the other for a sin-offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean. Luke 2 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord; As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;) And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.) and a young pigeon.' And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not.) and two sheep(two anointed ones); and it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give, he shall eat curd; for curd and honey shall every one eat that is left in the midst of the land. And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, shall even be for briers and thorns(Psalm 55 He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream (butter, curd-like) were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords. Proverb 30 If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast planned devices, lay thy hand upon thy mouth. For the churning of milk bringeth forth curd, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood; so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife. Psalm 76 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth. Psalm 55 He hath put forth his hands against them that were at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant. Smoother than cream (butter, curd-like) were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords). With arrows and with bow shall one come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns. And all the hills that were digged with the mattock(plumb line), thou shalt not come thither for fear of briers and thorns, but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.
Leviticus 20 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly(Gadfly) that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. Jeremiah 46 Egypt is a very fair heifer(don't produce abundantly milk/honey/oil (Isaiah 30 Therefore shall the stronghold of Pharaoh turn to your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your confusion.); but the gadfly (bee, heifer that produce abundantly milk/honey/oil, Immanuel) out of the north is come, it is come. Also her mercenaries in the midst of her are like calves of the stall, for they also are turned back, they are fled away together, they did not stand; for the day of their calamity is come upon them, the time of their visitation. The sound thereof shall go like the serpent's; for they march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood. They cut down her forest (Isaiah 7 And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the rugged valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all brambles In that day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also sweep away the beard..), saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
Leviticus 20 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples
Ye shall therefore separate between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean; and ye shall not make your souls detestable by beast, or by fowl, or by any thing wherewith the ground teemeth, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean.
Ezekiel 34 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land; and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
Ezekiel 32
By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall; the terrible of the nations are they all; and they shall spoil the pride of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed. I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside many waters; ( Leviticus 20 separate between the clean beast and the unclean )neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs of beasts trouble them. Then will I make their waters to settle, and cause their rivers to run like oil (Isaiah 60 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all are gathered together, and come to thee; thy sons come from far, and thy daughters are borne on the side. Thou shalt also suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings; and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour, and I, the Mighty One of Jacob, thy Redeemer. Isaiah 66 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child (Immanuel). Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD; Shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God. Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her; rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her; That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breast of her consolations; that ye may drink deeply with delight of the abundance of her glory For thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of the nations like an overflowing stream, and ye shall suck thereof (Milk): Ye shall be borne upon the side, and shall be dandled upon the knees. As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. (Lioness)), saith the Lord GOD. When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate and waste, a land destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall smite all them that dwell therein, then shall they know that I am the LORD.
Leviticus 20 But I have said unto you: 'Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have set you apart from the peoples
Joel 2 fire devoureth before them, and behind them a flame blazeth; the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing escapeth them (a wall).
Isaiah 28
Whom shall one teach knowledge? And whom shall one make to understand the message? Them that are weaned from the milk, them that are drawn from the breasts? For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little. For with stammering lips and with a strange tongue shall it be spoken to this people; To whom it was said: 'This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing'; yet they would not hear. And so the word of the LORD is unto them precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Isaiah 29
Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink. For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered. And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed'; and the writing is delivered to him that is not learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I am not learned.'
Isaiah 8 For before the child shall have knowledge to cry: My father, and: My mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.' Forasmuch as this people hath refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoiceth with Rezin and Remaliah's son; Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the River, mighty and many, even the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks; And he shall sweep through Judah overflowing as he passeth through he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel ( Isaiah 28Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it, As often as it passeth through, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night; and it shall be sheer terror to understand the message. For the bed is too short for a man to stretch himself; and the covering too narrow when he gathereth himself up. For the LORD will rise up as in mount Perazim (Josh 10 sun of justice Then spoke Joshua (Yehoshua, Immanuel) to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel: 'Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.' And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man (Yehoshua, Yeshua the Messiah); for the LORD fought for Israel. Habakkuk 3 The sun and moon stand still in their habitation; at the light of Thine arrows as they go, at the shining of Thy glittering spear. Thou marchest through the earth in indignation, Thou threshest the nations in anger. Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck (overflowing with justice Isaiah 28, 8). Selah), He will be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; that He may do His work, strange is His work, and bring to pass His act, strange is His act. Is the plowman never done with plowing to sow, with the opening and harrowing of his ground? When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the black cummin, and scatter the cummin, and put in the wheat in rows and the barley in the appointed place and the spelt in the border For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him (thresh with God spirit). thereof? Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. , Malachi 3 Ye have said: 'It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we have kept His charge (Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples. Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.), and that we have walked mournfully because of the LORD of hosts? And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered.' Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honoured his name. ‘On the day when I act,’ says the Lord Almighty, ‘they will be my treasured possession. I will spare them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son who serves him And you will again see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not. But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings(Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth.); and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I do make, saith the LORD of hosts. Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers; lest I come and smite the land with utter destruction.). Make an uproar, O ye peoples, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. Take counsel together, and it shall be brought to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand; for God is with us. For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, admonishing me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying: 'Say ye not: A conspiracy, concerning all whereof this people do say: A conspiracy; neither fear ye their fear, nor account it dreadful. The LORD of hosts, Him shall ye sanctify; and let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread. And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.' 'Bind up the testimony, seal the instruction among My disciples.' And I will wait for the LORD, that hideth His face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for Him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me shall be for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion.
Isaiah 29
And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';
and the writing is delivered to him that is not learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I am not learned.'
And the Lord said: Forasmuch as this people draw near, and with their mouth and with their lips do honour Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear of Me is a commandment of men learned by rote; Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the prudence of their prudent men shall be hid. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say: 'Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?' O your perversity! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay; that the thing made should say of him that made it: 'He made me not'; or the thing framed say of him that framed it: 'He hath no understanding?'
And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of a book (Psalm 139 I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My frame was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance, and in Thy book they were all written—even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. How weighty also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand; were I to come to the end of them, I would still be with Thee. If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God—depart from me therefore, ye men of blood; Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting. (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;
He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.
) ), and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness. The humble also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the neediest among men shall exult in the Holy One of Israel. For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner ceaseth, and all they that watch for iniquity are cut off; That make a man an offender by words, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just with a thing of nought. When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.
Isaiah 33 Now will I arise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift Myself up. Ye conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble; your breath is a fire that shall devour you. And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime; as thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might. The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'
Obad 1
How is Esau searched out! How are his hidden places sought out (Isaiah 8, 28)! All the men of thy confederacy have conducted thee to the border; the men that were at peace with thee have beguiled thee, and prevailed against thee; they that eat thy bread lay a snare under thee, in whom there is no discernment. Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and discernment out of the mount of Esau?
Isaiah 40
To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness (Psalm17, Job 25How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?) will ye compare unto Him? Know ye not? hear ye not? Hath it not been told you from the beginning? Have ye not understood the foundations of the earth? To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? saith the Holy One. Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel: 'My way is hid from the LORD, and my right is passed over from my God'? Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? His discernment is past searching out.
Jeremiah 22 For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before Me, saith the Lord GOD.
Malachi 3 But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire(Plumb line), and like fullers' soap;
Malachi 3 And now we call the proud (Habakkuk 2 Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith.) happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered. Then they that feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before Him, for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His name. But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
Nahum 2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.— Isaiah 19 And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof (Isaiah 57, 28); and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits. Jeremiah 19 and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Zechariah 1:11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said: 'We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.' Jeremiah 30 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. Zechariah 6 Then cried he upon me, and spoke unto me, saying: 'Behold, they that go toward the north country have eased My spirit in the north country(Ezekiel 1 And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire flashing up, so that a brightness was round about it; and out of the midst thereof as the colour of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.). Isaiah 14 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet; they break forth into singing. Isaiah 24 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. Jeremiah 51 And I will send unto Babylon strangers, that shall fan her, and they shall empty her land; for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
Jeremiah 17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond; it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars. Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD . Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceeding weak—who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. Thou throne of glory, on high from the beginning, thou place of our sanctuary Thou hope of Israel, the LORD! All that forsake Thee shall be ashamed; they that depart from Thee shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for Thou art my praise. Behold, they say unto me: 'Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now. (Zechariah 5 Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land(the word); for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it.)' As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after Thee; neither have I desired the woeful day; Thou knowest it; that which came out of my lips was manifest before Thee. Be not a ruin unto me; Thou art my refuge in the day of evil. Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; Let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction ( (plummet of emptiness)
'Behold your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One(Isaiah 28 the Lord has cone who is mighty and strong;
like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. Habakkuk 2 Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith.), and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath meted out the spirit of the LORD? Or who was His counsellor that he might instruct Him? With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of right, and taught Him knowledge, and made Him to know the way of discernment? (Isaiah 28 For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him. This also comes forth from the LORD of Hosts, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.) Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket (Efa, measure), and are counted as the small dust of the balance; behold the isles are as a mote in weight.
Psalm 7 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked(Zechariah 5 And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land— And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.). If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me; (Isaiah 42 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth. He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching.) Let the enemy pursue my soul (He make his bed because he turn not away Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. All we like sheep did go astray, we turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath made to light on him the iniquity of us all., And they made his grave with the wicked (a bed), and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Isaiah 50 Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is My hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish become foul, because there is no water, and die for thirst. Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish become foul, because there is no water, and die for thirst. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward. The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting.), and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth(Ezekiel 32 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth (
Jeremiah 49 And I will bring against Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds (Ezekiel 12 And I will disperse toward every wind all that are round about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.); and there shall be no nation whither the dispersed of Elam shall not come. And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them; Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.), who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set her a bed (Isaiah 53 And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear (was wicked by us). Job 20 He draweth it forth, and it cometh out of his body (Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue;); yea, the glittering point (Sword)cometh out of his gall; terrors are upon him (Eccl12 Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and terrors shall be in the way; and the almond-tree shall blossom (Jeremiah 1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying: 'Jeremiah, what seest thou?' And I said: 'I see a rod of an almond-tree.(plumb line, God word, Menorah, heifer, Number 17 Aaron rod)' Then said the LORD unto me: 'Thou hast well seen; for I watch over My word to perform it.'(Ezekiel 7 Behold the day; behold, it cometh; the turn is come forth; the rod hath blossomed, arrogancy hath budded (Habakkuk 2 And the LORD answered me, and said: 'Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that a man may read it swiftly. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith. Malachi 3 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered.' Then they that feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before Him, for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His name. And they shall be Mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in the day that I do make, even Mine own treasure; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.). Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness(terror); nought cometh from them, nor from their tumult, nor from their turmoil, neither is there eminency among them. Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked (Isaiah 30 And the LORD will cause His glorious voice to be heard, and will show the lighting down of His arm, with furious anger, and the flame of a devouring fire, with a bursting of clouds, and a storm of rain, and hailstones. For through the voice of the LORD shall Asshur be dismayed, the rod with which He smote. And in every place where the appointed staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps; and in battles of wielding will He fight with them. For a hearth is ordered of old; yea, for the king it is prepared, deep and large; the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.). Isaiah 14 Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent(seraph). And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety; and I will kill thy root with famine, and thy remnant shall be slain.Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke (terror) out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks. What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.)(Psalm 55 Smoother than cream were the speeches of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet were they keen-edged swords(terror)(Proverb 15 A soft answer turneth away wrath; but a grievous word stirreth up anger. The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright; but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness The eyes of the LORD (Plumb line, stone grace) are in every place, keeping watch upon the evil and the good. A soothing tongue is a tree of life; but perverseness therein is a wound to the spirit. A fool despiseth his father's correction; but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. In the house of the righteous is much treasure; but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. The lips of the wise disperse knowledge; but the heart of the foolish is not stedfast. The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD; but the prayer(sacrifice) of the upright is His delight.There is grievous correction for him that forsaketh the way; and he that hateth reproof shall die. The nether-world and Destruction are before the LORD; how much more then the hearts of the children of men!(his eye in all earth (plumb line, justice the line, thruth the plummet Isaiah 28) Jeremiah 17, Zechariah 4, 5 their eye in all earth(wickdness, sin) Better is little with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure and turmoil therewith. The LORD is far from the wicked; but He heareth the prayer of the righteous (he cause him to be near (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.) to cease sinners(Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed (Jeremiah 1 Then said the LORD unto me: 'Thou hast well seen; for I watch over My word to perform it.') the purposes of His heart (He heareth the prayer of the righteous); in the end of days ye shall consider it. Prov 15 A soft answer turneth away wrath) and then save him (Jacob) from the bigger than him Jeremiah 31 ) .)) .)), and the grasshopper shall drag itself along, and the caperberry shall fail; because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets;). Deu 32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter; Their wine is the venom of serpents, and the cruel poison of asps. 'Is not this laid up in store with Me, sealed up in My treasuries (in the dark place Malachi 3 Ye are cursed with the curse, yet ye rob Me, even this whole nation. Bring ye the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall be more than sufficiency. And they shall be Mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in the day that I do make, even Mine own treasure; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.)? Job 20 He shall suck the poison of asps; the viper's tongue shall slay him (Isaiah 11 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the basilisk's den Deu 32 He made him ride on the high places (Isaiah 58) of the earth, and he did eat the fruitage of the field; and He made him to suck honey out of the crag, and oil out of the flinty rock (Job 28 He putteth forth his hand upon the flinty rock; He overturneth the mountains by the roots. But wisdom, where shall it be found? And where is the place of understanding? Isaiah 50 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. (Job 28 And unto man He said: 'Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.')); Curd of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and he-goats, with the kidney-fat of wheat; and of the blood of the grape thou drankest foaming wine(Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.). The Rock, His work is perfect; for all His ways are justice; a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is He. .).Job 20 He shall not look upon the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and curd(the wicked)(Job 29 when my steps were washed with butter,
and the rock poured out streams of oil for me,). That which he laboured for shall he give back, and shall not swallow it down; according to the substance that he hath gotten, he shall not rejoice. Because he knew no quietness within him(rest antonym of Yeshua), in his greed he suffered nought to escape(God save him), There was nothing left that he devoured not—therefore his prosperity shall not endure (portion with the mightiest). All darkness is laid up for his treasures (Deu 32 'Is not this laid up in store with Me, sealed up in My treasuries ); a fire not blown by man shall consume him(spirit, sword); it shall go ill with him that is left in his tent. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth shall rise up against him.(heaven reveal his treasure with the rich Isaiah 53 antonym) Job 13 Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it(Isaiah 50). What ye know, do I know also; I am not inferior unto you. Notwithstanding I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God. But ye are plasterers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value. Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him; but I will argue my ways before Him. This also shall be my salvation, that a hypocrite cannot come before Him. Hear diligently my speech, and let my declaration be in your ears. Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified. Who is he that will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and die. Only do not two things unto me, then will I not hide myself from Thee (Psalm 139): Withdraw Thy hand far from me; and let not Thy terror make me afraid. Then call Thou, and I will answer; or let me speak, and answer Thou me. How many are mine iniquities and sins? Make me to know my transgression and my sin. Wherefore hidest Thou Thy face, and holdest me for Thine enemy? That Thou shouldest write bitter things against me, and make me to inherit the iniquities of my youth. Shall not His majesty terrify you, and His dread fall upon you?. Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; Thou drawest Thee a line about the soles of my feet;); terrors are upon him This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God. All darkness is laid up for his treasures; a fire not blown by man shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tent. Psalm 139 If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed (Job 17 If I look for the nether-world as my house; if I have spread (my bed )my couch in the darkness; Psalm 6 I am weary with my groaning; every night make I my bed to swim (Isaiah 25 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill. And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim (Bed in the netherworld), his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands. And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.(Isaiah 57 Upon a high and lofty mountain hast thou set thy bed; thither also wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.)); I melt away my couch with my tears. Ezekiel 17 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.') in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there. Proverb 30 Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest?)in the midst of the slain with all her multitude (they crush him); her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword(Isaiah 29 And I will encamp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with a mound, and I will raise siege works against thee. (Nahum 2 A maul is come up before thy face; guard the defences, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily!â) ); because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in the midst of them that are slain. And they that are inferior to the uncircumcised shall not lie with the mighty that are gone down to the nether-world with their weapons of war, whose swords are laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon their bones ((Isaiah 22 The burden concerning the Valley of Vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops, Thou that art full of uproar, a tumultuous city, a joyous town? Thy slain are not slain with the sword,(by the spirit/breadth of God Zechariah 4, Isaiah 59) nor dead in battle. All thy rulers are fled together, without the bow they are bound; all that are found of thee are bound together, they are fled afar off. Isaiah 21 The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again.” Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. Ezekiel 37 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and the LORD carried me out in a spirit, and set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones; and He caused me to pass by them round about(Genesis 15 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and there was thick darkness, behold a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces. And He said unto him: 'Take Me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.' And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other; but the birds divided he not. And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. And it came to pass, that, when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram Now terror and great darkness fell on him. (Isaiah 29 Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink.); and, lo, a dread, even a great darkness, fell upon him. For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered. And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';), and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And He said unto me: 'Son of man, can these bones live?' And I answered: 'O Lord GOD, Thou knowest.'
Ezekiel 37 Valley of dry bones, Joel 3 Valley of God is Judge(Isaiah 33), Judge 15 As he , Joel 3 Valley of God is Judge(Isaiah 33), Judge 15 As he approached Lehi, the Philistines came towards him shouting. The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon him. The ropes on his arms became like charred flax, and the bindings dropped from his hands. And he found a new jawbone of an ass(Zechariah 9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly (poor, humble, needy), and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.(Genesis 49 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washeth his garments in wine(drunk them Isaiah 63), and his vesture in the blood of grapes;
Deuto 21 If one be found slain in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath smitten him; then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain. And it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd (Number 19 This is the statute of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying: Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer, faultless, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke. And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of sprinkling; it is a purification from sin. And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even; and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever.), which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke. And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a rough valley, which may neither be plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer's neck there in the valley. And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near—for them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto Him, and to bless in the name of the LORD; and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be. And all the elders of that city, who are nearest unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley. And they shall speak and say: 'Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it. Forgive, O LORD, Thy people Israel, whom Thou hast redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood to remain in the midst of Thy people Israel.' And the blood shall be forgiven them. So shalt thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD. When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and the LORD thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive. 1 Samuel 16 And Samuel said: 'How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me.' And the LORD said: 'Take a heifer with thee, and say: I am come to sacrifice to the LORD. Jeremiah 48 With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for thee, O vine of Sibmah; thy branches passed over the sea, they reached even to the sea of Jazer; upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage the spoiler is fallen. And gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the winepresses; none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting. From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, even unto (Jahaz/ Trodden down) have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim(weeping), a heifer of three years old; for the Waters of Nimrim also shall be desolate. Isaiah 15 In their streets they gird themselves with sackcloth; on their housetops, and in their broad places, every one howleth, weeping profusely. And Heshbon crieth out, and Elealeh; their voice is heard (even unto)(Eglon, calf-like "Young cow") (Jahaz/ Trodden down); therefore the armed men of Moab cry aloud; his soul is faint within him. My heart crieth out for Moab; her fugitives reach unto Zoar(weeping), a heifer of three years old; (Jeremiah 31 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say: 'He that scattered Israel doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.' For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he. And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of the LORD (), to the corn, and to the wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered garden, and they shall not pine any more at all.) for by the ascent of Luhith with weeping they go up; for in the way of Horonaim they raise up a cry of destruction. (Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' (Lion of God Ariel Isaiah 29 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God. And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of a book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness. The humble also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the neediest among men shall exult in the Holy One of Israel. Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale; When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.) And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.'(Jeremiah 31For there shall be a day, that the watchmen shall call upon the mount Ephraim: arise ye, and let us go up to Zion, unto the LORD our God.') Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.(Jeremiah 31 For thus saith the LORD: Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout at the head of the nations; announce ye, praise ye, and say: 'O LORD, save Thy people, The remnant of Israel.' Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together; a great company shall they return hither. They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say: 'He that scattered Israel doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock. For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.'(Isaiah 11 (the fugitives, captives)And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord will set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, that shall remain from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And He will set up an ensign for the nations, and will assemble the dispersed of Israel, and gather together the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth.)Set thee up waymarks, make thee guide-posts; set thy heart toward the high-way, even the way by which thou wentest; Return, O virgin of Israel, return to these thy cities. )); his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction. Isaiah 16 Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from the crags that are toward the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion. 'Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive. And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness. Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh; for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen. And gladness and joy are taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting; no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease.

This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength?'—'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.'— 'Wherefore is Thine apparel red, and Thy garments like his that treadeth in the winevat? 'I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no man with Me; yea, I trod them in Mine anger, and trampled them in My fury; and their lifeblood is dashed against My garments, and I have stained all My raiment. And I trod down the peoples in Mine anger, and made them drunk (Isaiah 14 Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent(Jacob was ransomed from the bigger than he Jeremiah 31). red heifer Isaiah 9 For the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, Thou hast broken as in the day of Midian.

The zeal of the LORD of hosts doth perform this. The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel. Jeremiah 48 Make ye him drunken, for he magnified himself against the LORD; and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision. on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.

And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath-lehi ("height of a jawbone"a place by the rock Elam in northern Judah (valley of dry bones) ). And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said: 'Thou hast given this great deliverance by the hand of Thy servant; and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?' But God cleaved the hollow place that is in Lehi, and there came water thereout(brook, fountain); and when he had drunk (drink the cup), his spirit came back^, and he revived; wherefore the name thereof was called En-hakkore ("spring of One calling" valley of the dry bones that revived

Isaiah 52 Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering; the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again;
Zechariah 12
Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of staggering unto all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also shall it fall to be in the siege against Jerusalem.
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon (height of a jawbone" a place by the rock Elam who fall). Joel 3 And the LORD shall roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the LORD will be a refuge unto His people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel. So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion My holy mountain; then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land. Zechariah 13 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.' Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones (by the sword).

For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised (Elam Jeremiah 49 And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them;), with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.'); yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment (Psalm 17 As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness. Jeremiah 49 And I will set My throne in Elam (Isaiah 29 And brought down thou shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust; and thy voice shall be as of a ghost out of the ground, and thy speech shall chirp out of the dust. But the multitude of thy foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passeth away; yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly— There shall be a visitation from the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire. And the multitude of all the nations that war against Ariel (set a Maul Jeremiah 51 Thou art My maul and weapons of war, and with thee will I shatter the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms;, (set watchman, Elam destroying the enemies)), even all that war against her, and the bulwarks about her, and they that distress her, shall be as a dream, a vision of the night. Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; Zechariah 8 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.(Immanuel, Cyrus Isaiah 44 & 45)'), and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD. Isaiah 40 To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness will ye compare unto Him? Know ye not? hear ye not? Hath it not been told you from the beginning? Have ye not understood the foundations of the earth? To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? saith the Holy One. Isaiah 63 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old. Psalm 8 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him? Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

Zechariah 12 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being (Genesis 1:26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness(Messiah); and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.'

Selah Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.' Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Amos 9 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;
Isaiah 16
Send the lambs for the ruler of the land from Selah to the wilderness, to the mountain of the daughter of Zion. And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
Psalm 85 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other. Truth springeth out of the earth; and righteousness hath looked down from heaven.
Isaiah 55 For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
2 Samuel 23 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.' For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow? But the ungodly, they are as thorns thrust away, all of them, for they cannot be taken with the hand;
Zechariah 1 Therefore this is what the Lord says: “I will return to Jerusalem with mercy, and there my house will be rebuilt. And the measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem,” declares the Lord Almighty.
Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance
Isaiah 33 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might(My servant).The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?' He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;(open to look on rightenous. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Thy heart shall muse on the terror (sinner fall to Sheol): 'Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed? Where is he that counted the towers?'
Psalm 106 Thus they exchanged their glory for the likeness of an ox that eateth grass (the ungodly).
) which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me (Plumb line). (Isaiah 42 He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching.)
Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins. My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge (Isaiah 33 Righterous), yea, a God that hath indignation every day: Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Isaiah 42 Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness (Jeremiah 30 call thee near to God), and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations (Isaiah 32 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever. And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places. And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley. Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth freely the feet of the ox and the ass.);
Zechariah 2 For thus saith the LORD of hosts who sent me after glory unto the nations which spoiled you: 'Surely, he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. (Isaiah 10 This very day shall he halt at Nob, shaking his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the boughs with terror(Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone Isaiah 65 Behold, it is written before Me; I will not keep silence, except I have requited, yea, I will requite into their bosom, Your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, that have offered upon the mountains, and blasphemed Me upon the hills; therefore will I first measure their wage into their bosom.) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53) I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. ); and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be laid low. And He shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one (Ezekiel 17 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell (Isaiah 25:10 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill. And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim (Isaiah 14 I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts. The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying: Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand, That I will break Asshur in My land, and upon My mountains tread him under foot; then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulder. This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out (Exodus 3 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. And the LORD said: 'I have surely seen the affliction of My people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their pains; and I am come down (the Angel of יְהֹוָה) to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. And He said: 'Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be the token unto thee, that I have sent thee: when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.' And I know that the king of Egypt will not give you leave to go, except by a mighty hand. And I will put forth My hand, and smite Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in the midst thereof. And after that he will let you go.), and who shall turn it back? Isaiah 22 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.) , his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands. And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.)).) For, behold, I will shake My hand over them, and they shall be a spoil to those that served them'; and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me. 'Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion; for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD. And many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be My people, and I will dwell in the midst of thee'; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
2 Samuel 1 And they wailed, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. And David said unto him: 'Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying: I have slain the LORD'S anointed.'. And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son, and said—To teach the sons of Judah the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jashar: Thy beauty, O Israel, upon thy high places is slain! How are the mighty fallen! How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished! Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of choice fruits; for there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil. From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty. (Zechariah 12 )
Ekeziel 21 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of those to be slain; it is the sword of the great one that is to be slain, which compasseth them about.
2King 21 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down (by line, with the measure, and plummet(justice and righteouness)).Isaiah 34 But the pelican and the bittern shall possess it, and the owl and the raven shall dwell therein; and He shall stretch over it the line of confusion, and the plummet of emptiness. Zechariah 5 Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land; for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it. And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth. (bucket/Efa)' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land (plummet) and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.' And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.(Over him) And he said unto me: 'To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place..

And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Jeremiah 16 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.). and say unto them: Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates; thus saith the LORD: Take heed for the sake of your souls, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; then shall there enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city shall be inhabited for ever. And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the Lowland, and from the mountains, and from the South, bringing burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and meal-offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving, unto the house of the LORD. But if ye will not hearken unto Me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
v Thus saith the LORD: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor; and do no wrong, do no violence, to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place. For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people. But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by Myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation. Then they shall answer: 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.' Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by injustice; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not his hire; Shalt thou reign, because thou strivest to excel in cedar? Did not thy father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him. He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Is not this to know Me? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 23 Woe unto the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture! saith the LORD. And I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, saith the LORD. Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous shoot, and he shall reign as king and prosper, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The LORD is our righteousness. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt'; but: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up and that led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whither I had driven them'; and they shall dwell in their own land. Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome; because of the LORD, and because of His holy words. For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth, the pastures of the wilderness are dried up; and their course is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are ungodly; yea, in My house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD. Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery places in the darkness, they shall be thrust, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 58
Yet they seek Me daily, and delight to know My ways; as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God, they ask of Me righteous ordinances, they delight to draw near unto God.
Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the fetters of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy healing shall spring forth speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee, the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward. Then shalt thou call, and the LORD will answer; thou shalt cry, and He will say: 'Here I am.' If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedness; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in darkness, and thy gloom be as the noon-day; And the LORD will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places, thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called The repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in. If thou turn away thy foot because of the sabbath, from pursuing thy business on My holy day (Deut 10 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul; to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day? Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day. Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward. He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear. He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen. Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.); and call the sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honourable; and shalt honour it, not doing thy wonted ways, nor pursuing thy business, nor speaking thereof; Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD, and I will make thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and I will feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that He may establish the word which the LORD swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.
Zechariah 9 he burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place (Heaven where the bow stand); for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Isaiah 21 They prepare the table, they light the lamps, they eat, they drink—'Rise up, ye princes, anoint the shield.(shield of the anointed not anointed with oil) For thus hath the Lord said unto me: Go, set a watchman; let him declare what he seeth! And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.' O thou my threshing, and the winnowing of my floor, that which I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. The burden of Dumah. One calleth unto me out of Seir: 'Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?' The watchman said: 'The morning cometh, and also the night—if ye will inquire, inquire ye; return, come.' (The report)
The burden upon Arabia. In the thickets in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye caravans of Dedanites. Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
Zechariah 2 For thus saith the LORD of hosts who sent me after glory unto the nations which spoiled you: 'Surely, he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. (Isaiah 10 This very day shall he halt at Nob, shaking his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the boughs with terror(Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone Isaiah 65 Behold, it is written before Me; I will not keep silence, except I have requited, yea, I will requite into their bosom, Your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, that have offered upon the mountains, and blasphemed Me upon the hills; therefore will I first measure their wage into their bosom.) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53) I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. ); and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be laid low. And He shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one (Ezekiel 17 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell (Isaiah 25:10 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill. And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim (Isaiah 14 I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts. The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying: Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand, That I will break Asshur in My land, and upon My mountains tread him under foot; then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulder. This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out (Exodus 3 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. And the LORD said: 'I have surely seen the affliction of My people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their pains; and I am come down (the Angel of יְהֹוָה) to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. And He said: 'Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be the token unto thee, that I have sent thee: when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.' And I know that the king of Egypt will not give you leave to go, except by a mighty hand. And I will put forth My hand, and smite Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in the midst thereof. And after that he will let you go.), and who shall turn it back? Isaiah 22 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.) , his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands. And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.)).) For, behold, I will shake My hand over them, and they shall be a spoil to those that served them'; and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.
'Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion; for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
And many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be My people, and I will dwell in the midst of thee'; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
2 Samuel 1 And they wailed, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. And David said unto him: 'Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying: I have slain the LORD'S anointed.'. And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son, and said—To teach the sons of Judah the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jashar: Thy beauty, O Israel, upon thy high places is slain! How are the mighty fallen! How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished! Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of choice fruits; for there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil. From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty. (Zechariah 12 )
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Habakkuk 2 (The report) I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith. But the LORD is in His holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before Him. Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts that the peoples labour for the fire, and the nations weary themselves for vanity? For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53)
Zechariah 2 And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand. Then said I: 'Whither goest thou?' And he said unto me: 'To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.'
Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge (Measurement) did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Zechariah 4 Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. Who art thou, O great mountain before Zerubbabel? thou shalt become a plain; and he shall bring forth the top stone with shoutings of Grace, grace, unto it.(compassion, mercy)' 'The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. For who hath despised the day of small things? even they shall see with joy the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel, even these seven, which are the eyes of the LORD, that run to and fro through the whole earth.'
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun (Bow); for distress will come in like a flood (like Noah's time), which the breath of the LORD driveth. (his spirit measured the waters)
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Hark! one calleth: 'Clear ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make plain in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the rugged shall be made level, and the rough places a plain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah: 'Behold your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One, and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath meted out the spirit of the LORD? Or who was His counsellor that he might instruct Him? With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of right, and taught Him knowledge, and made Him to know the way of discernment? Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket (Zechariah 5), and are counted as the small dust of the balance; behold the isles are as a mote in weight. To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness (Psalm17) will ye compare unto Him? Know ye not? hear ye not? Hath it not been told you from the beginning? Have ye not understood the foundations of the earth? To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? saith the Holy One. Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel: 'My way is hid from the LORD, and my right is passed over from my God'? Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? His discernment is past searching out.
Jeremiah 22 For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before Me, saith the Lord GOD.
Jeremiah 17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond; it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars. Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceeding weak—who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. Thou throne of glory, on high from the beginning, thou place of our sanctuary Thou hope of Israel, the LORD! All that forsake Thee shall be ashamed; they that depart from Thee shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for Thou art my praise. Behold, they say unto me: 'Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.' As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after Thee; neither have I desired the woeful day; Thou knowest it; that which came out of my lips was manifest before Thee. Be not a ruin unto me; Thou art my refuge in the day of evil. Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; Let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction (
Psalm 7 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked. If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness; Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins. My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge (Isaiah 33 Righterous), yea, a God that hath indignation every day: Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Nahum 2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.— Isaiah 19 And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof; and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits. and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Jeremiah 19 and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Zechariah 1:11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said: 'We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.' Jeremiah 30 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. Zechariah 6 Then cried he upon me, and spoke unto me, saying: 'Behold, they that go toward the north country have eased My spirit in the north country(Ezekiel 1 And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire flashing up, so that a brightness was round about it; and out of the midst thereof as the colour of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.). Isaiah 14 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet; they break forth into singing. Isaiah 24 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. Jeremiah 51 And I will send unto Babylon strangers, that shall fan her, and they shall empty her land; for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
plummet of emptiness Proverb 21 To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin to the workers of iniquity plumbline Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Jeremiah 16 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.). and say unto them: Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates; thus saith the LORD: Take heed for the sake of your souls, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; then shall there enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city shall be inhabited for ever. And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the Lowland, and from the mountains, and from the South, bringing burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and meal-offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving, unto the house of the LORD. But if ye will not hearken unto Me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
Jeremiah 22 Thus saith the LORD: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor; and do no wrong, do no violence, to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place. For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people. But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by Myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation. Then they shall answer: 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.' Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by injustice; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not his hire; Shalt thou reign, because thou strivest to excel in cedar? Did not thy father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him. He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Is not this to know Me? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 23 Woe unto the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture! saith the LORD. And I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, saith the LORD. Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous shoot, and he shall reign as king and prosper, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The LORD is our righteousness. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt'; but: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up and that led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whither I had driven them'; and they shall dwell in their own land. Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome; because of the LORD, and because of His holy words. For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth, the pastures of the wilderness are dried up; and their course is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are ungodly; yea, in My house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD. Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery places in the darkness, they shall be thrust, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 58
Yet they seek Me daily, and delight to know My ways; as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God, they ask of Me righteous ordinances, they delight to draw near unto God.
Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the fetters of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy healing shall spring forth speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee, the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward. Then shalt thou call, and the LORD will answer; thou shalt cry, and He will say: 'Here I am.' If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedness; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in darkness, and thy gloom be as the noon-day; And the LORD will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places, thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called The repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in. If thou turn away thy foot because of the sabbath, from pursuing thy business on My holy day (Deut 10 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul; to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day? Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day. Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward. He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear. He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen. Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.); and call the sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honourable; and shalt honour it, not doing thy wonted ways, nor pursuing thy business, nor speaking thereof; Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD, and I will make thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and I will feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Jeremiah 23 Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, yea, a whirling storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. The anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart; in the end of days ye shall consider it perfectly. I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran; I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they have stood in My council, then let them cause My people to hear My words, and turn them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. Am I a God near at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off? Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 51 Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in Leb-kamai, a destroying wind (spirit of a destroyer with fury and wrath Isaiah 54 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD. O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. Behold, they may gather together, but not by Me; whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee.). Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life, be not cut off in her iniquity; for it is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; He will render unto her a recompense. The LORD hath brought forth our victory; come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.
Isaiah 54 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 14 Prepare ye slaughter (Isaiah 65 I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. So that he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes.) for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they rise not up, and possess the earth, and fill the face of the world with cities. I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.
Jeremiah 51 Make bright the arrows, fill the quivers, the LORD hath roused the spirit of the kings of the Medes; because His device is against Babylon, to destroy it; for it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of His temple. Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, the governors thereof, and all the deputies thereof, and all the land of his dominion. Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set the watchmen, prepare the ambushes; for the LORD hath both devised and done that which He spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
Isaiah 52 Hark, thy watchmen! they lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see, eye to eye, the LORD returning to Zion. Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Jerusalem. The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD. For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward.
Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
Ezekiel 1 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above. And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke. Ezekiel 10 the glory ((Isaiah 54 In righteousness shalt thou be established; be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from ruin, for it shall not come near thee. Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD.))
Isaiah 54
For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great compassion will I gather thee.
In a little wrath I hid My face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have compassion on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.
For this is as the waters of Noah unto Me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth (Genesis 9 'As for Me, behold, I establish My covenant with you, and with your seed after you; And God said: 'This is the token of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:), so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed; but My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall My covenant of peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath compassion on thee.
O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
Mal 3 Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.
Jeremiah 51 And Jeremiah wrote in one book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written concerning Babylon. And Jeremiah said to Seraiah: 'When thou comest to Babylon, then see that thou read all these words,and say: O LORD, Thou hast spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell therein, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever. and say: O LORD, Thou hast spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell therein, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever. and thou shalt say: Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise again because of the evil that I will bring upon her; and they shall be weary.' Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
Ezekiel 2 And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein; and He spread it before me, and it was written within and without; and there was written therein lamentations, and moaning, and woe.
Ezekiel 3 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, eat that which thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.' So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat that roll. And He said unto me: 'Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee.' Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness. 'Son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; and when thou shalt hear a word at My mouth, thou shalt give them warning from Me. Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, I will lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die; because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand. Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul.' And the hand of the LORD came there upon me; and He said unto me: 'Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there speak with thee.' Then I arose, and went forth into the plain; and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face. Then spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet; and He spoke with me, and said unto me: 'Go, shut thyself within thy house.
Ezekiel 4
And thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with thine arm uncovered; and thou shalt prophesy against it. (Plumb line)
Then He said unto me: 'See, I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereon.'
(Isaiah 54 In righteousness shalt thou be established; be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from ruin, for it shall not come near thee. Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD.)
Moreover He said unto me: 'Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxiety; and they shall drink water by measure (Justice, righteousness), and in appalment; that they may want bread and water, and be appalled one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
Isaiah 65 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, My servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry; Behold, My servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty; Behold, My servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed;
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Execute justice), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.
And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm;(Jeremiah 51 Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in Leb-kamai, a destroying wind (spirit of a destroyer with fury and wrath Isaiah 54 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD. O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. In righteousness shalt thou be established(Isaiah 14 Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent. Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks. What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, (Isaiah 33 He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure (Psalm 55 And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest. Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.' Psalm 139 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me. I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.). Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar (in Zion And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. Isaiah 32 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.). Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. )and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge (Isaiah 54 And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children Isaiah 32 And a man shall be as in a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.).); be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from ruin, for it shall not come near thee. Behold, they may gather together, but not by Me; whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee.). Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life, be not cut off in her iniquity; for it is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; He will render unto her a recompense. The LORD hath brought forth our victory; come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God. ) it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart; in the end of days ye shall consider it.
Psalm 76
In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey. The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared; He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
Isaiah 28 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it,
Isaiah 28 For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little.
For with stammering lips and with a strange tongue shall it be spoken to this people;
To whom it was said: 'This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing'; yet they would not hear.
Amos 7 Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand. And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline.' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
Isaiah 28 For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him. For the black cummin is not threshed with a threshing-sledge, neither is a cart-wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the black cummin is beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod(Spirit of God). This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts: Wonderful is His counsel, and great His wisdom.
Zechariah 5 Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land; for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it. And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth. (bucket/Efa)' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land (plummet) and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.' And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.(Over him) And he said unto me: 'To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.
Jeremiah 17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond; it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars. Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceeding weak—who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. Thou throne of glory, on high from the beginning, thou place of our sanctuary Thou hope of Israel, the LORD! All that forsake Thee shall be ashamed; they that depart from Thee shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for Thou art my praise. Behold, they say unto me: 'Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.' As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after Thee; neither have I desired the woeful day; Thou knowest it; that which came out of my lips was manifest before Thee. Be not a ruin unto me; Thou art my refuge in the day of evil. Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; Let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction ( Ekeziel 21 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of those to be slain; it is the sword of the great one that is to be slain, which compasseth them about.
2King 21 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down (by line, with the measure, and plummet(justice and righteouness)).Isaiah 34 But the pelican and the bittern shall possess it, and the owl and the raven shall dwell therein; and He shall stretch over it the line of confusion, and the plummet of emptiness. plummet of emptiness Proverb 21 To do justly is joy to the righteous (to the plumb line that is in Zion, the stone of Grace), but ruin to the workers of iniquity. Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Jeremiah 16 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.
Psalm 118 'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.' So let Israel now say, for His mercy endureth for ever, So let the house of Aaron now say, for His mercy endureth for ever. So let them now that fear the LORD say, for His mercy endureth for ever. Out of my straits I called upon the LORD; He answered me with great enlargement. The LORD is for me; I will not fear; what can man do unto me?(Isaiah 50).The LORD is for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes. They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off. They compass me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off. Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; but the LORD helped me. The LORD is my strength and song; and He is become my salvation. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. (Isaiah 53) The right hand of the LORD is exalted; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
Psalm 45 These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I passed on with the throng, and led them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping holyday. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why moanest thou within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise Him for the salvation of His countenance. Deep calleth unto deep at the voice of Thy cataracts; all Thy waves and Thy billows are gone over me (Isaiah 59, 8). By day the LORD will command His lovingkindness, and in the night His song shall be with me, even a prayer unto the God of my life. I will say unto God my Rock: 'Why hast Thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning under the oppression of the enemy?' Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why moanest thou within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 71
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
Deliver me in Thy righteousness, and rescue me; incline Thine ear unto me, and save me.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
O my God, rescue me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.
For Thou art my hope; O Lord GOD, my trust from my youth.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
Saying: 'God hath forsaken him; pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver.'(Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. )
O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me.(Psalm139, Jeremiah 24, 30) Let them be ashamed and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and confusion that seek my hurt. But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise Thee yet more and more.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth; and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.(isaiah 8, 50)
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me.
I also will give thanks unto Thee with the psaltery, even unto Thy truth, O my God; I will sing praises unto Thee with the harp, O Thou Holy One of Israel.
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing praises unto Thee; and my soul, which Thou hast redeemed.
Psalm 118 The LORD hath chastened me sore; but He hath not given me over unto death. Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD. This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter into it. I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation (the gate). The stone which the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone. This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. We beseech Thee, O LORD, save now! We beseech Thee, O LORD, make us now to prosper! Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD; we bless you out of the house of the LORD. The LORD is God, and hath given us light; order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar. Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee. O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Malachi 3 But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap;
Malachi 3 And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered. Then they that feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before Him, for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His name. But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
Lam2
The Lord hath swallowed up unsparingly all the habitations of Jacob; He hath thrown down in His wrath the strongholds of the daughter of Judah; He hath brought them down to the ground; He hath profaned the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Isaiah 53 Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Isaiah 63 In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
Jeremiah 31 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. /For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.
Isaiah 22 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
And I will fasten him as a peg in a sure place; and he shall be for a throne of honour to his father's house.
(Zechariah 12 “And the Lord will give salvation to the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not surpass that of Judah. In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them (become a father with compassion).)
And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups even to all the vessels of flagons.
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.
Isaiah 28 Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, as a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, as a storm of mighty waters overflowing, that casteth down to the earth with violence. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it,
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste.
Isaiah 8 Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the River, mighty and many, even the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks; And he shall sweep through Judah overflowing as he passeth through he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.
For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, admonishing me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:(Isaiah 50) And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 'Bind up the testimony, seal the instruction among My disciples.' And I will wait for the LORD, that hideth His face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for Him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me shall be for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion. for instruction and for testimony?'—Surely they will speak according to this word, wherein there is no light.—
Zechariah 12 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.
Habakkuk 3 O LORD, I have heard the report of Thee, and am afraid; O LORD, revive Thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make it known; in wrath remember compassion. And a brightness appeareth as the light; rays hath He at His side; and there is the hiding of His power. Before him goeth the pestilence, and fiery bolts go forth at His feet. He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old. Thy bow is made quite bare; sworn are the rods of the word. Selah. Thou dost cleave the earth with rivers. The sun and moon stand still in their habitation; at the light of Thine arrows as they go, at the shining of Thy glittering spear(Josh 10). Thou marchest through the earth in indignation, Thou threshest the nations in anger(Isaiah 21). Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck(Isaiah 7). Selah God, the Lord, is my strength, and He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and He maketh me to walk upon my high places. For the Leader. With my string-music.
Isaiah 55 Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David(compassion). Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Zechariah 1
And the LORD answered the angel that spoke with me with good words, even comforting words
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. (compassion)
Isaiah 57 I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also—they shall not profit thee. And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners. Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.
Zechariah 1
so the angel that spoke with me said unto me: 'Proclaim thou, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy;
Therefore thus saith the LORD: I return to Jerusalem with compassions: My house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem. Again, proclaim, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: My cities shall again overflow with prosperity; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.' (the Plumb line)
Amos 7 The LORD repented concerning this; 'This also shall not be', saith the Lord GOD. Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand. And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline.' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline (David compassion) in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
2 Samuel 24
And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He moved David against them, saying: 'Go, number Israel and Judah.'
And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD: 'I have sinned greatly in what I have done; but now, O LORD, put away, I beseech Thee, the iniquity of Thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.'
And David said unto Gad: 'I am in a great strait; let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for His mercies are great; and let me not fall into the hand of man.'
So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed; and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men. And when the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented Him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people: 'It is enough; now stay thy hand.' And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite. And David spoke unto the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said: 'Lo, I have sinned, and I have done iniquitously; but these sheep, what have they done? let Thy hand, I pray Thee, be against me, and against my father's house.' (Offer himself) And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him: 'Go up, rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.'And Araunah looked forth, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him; and Araunah went out, and bowed down before the king with his face to the ground. And Araunah said: 'Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant?' And David said: 'To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar unto the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.' And Araunah said unto David: 'Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him; behold the oxen for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-instruments and the furniture of the oxen for the wood.' And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
1 Samuel 2 “The bows of the mighty men are broken.
Those who stumbled are armed with strength. The LORD killeth, and maketh alive; He bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich; He bringeth low, He also lifteth up. He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, He lifteth up the needy from the dung-hill, to make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory; for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and He hath set the world upon them. They that strive with the LORD shall be broken to pieces; against them will He thunder in heaven; the LORD will judge the ends of the earth; and He will give strength unto His king, and exalt the horn of His anointed.
Deutorenomio 33 Happy art thou, O Israel, who is like unto thee? a people saved by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and that is the sword of thy excellency! And thine enemies shall dwindle away before thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
Psalm 84 For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
Zechariah 9 he burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place (Heaven where the bow stand); for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Isaiah 21 They prepare the table, they light the lamps, they eat, they drink—'Rise up, ye princes, anoint the shield.(shield of the anointed not anointed with oil) For thus hath the Lord said unto me: Go, set a watchman; let him declare what he seeth! And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.' O thou my threshing, and the winnowing of my floor, that which I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. The burden of Dumah. One calleth unto me out of Seir: 'Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?' The watchman said: 'The morning cometh, and also the night—if ye will inquire, inquire ye; return, come.' (The report)
The burden upon Arabia. In the thickets in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye caravans of Dedanites. Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread. For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
Zechariah 2 For thus saith the LORD of hosts who sent me after glory unto the nations which spoiled you: 'Surely, he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. (Isaiah 10 This very day shall he halt at Nob, shaking his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the boughs with terror(Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone Isaiah 65 Behold, it is written before Me; I will not keep silence, except I have requited, yea, I will requite into their bosom, Your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, that have offered upon the mountains, and blasphemed Me upon the hills; therefore will I first measure their wage into their bosom.) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53) I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. ); and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be laid low. And He shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one (Ezekiel 17 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell (Isaiah 25:10 For in this mountain will the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the dunghill. And when he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim (Isaiah 14 I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts. The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying: Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand, That I will break Asshur in My land, and upon My mountains tread him under foot; then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulder. This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out (Exodus 3 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. And the LORD said: 'I have surely seen the affliction of My people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their pains; and I am come down (the Angel of יְהֹוָה) to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. And He said: 'Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be the token unto thee, that I have sent thee: when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.' And I know that the king of Egypt will not give you leave to go, except by a mighty hand. And I will put forth My hand, and smite Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in the midst thereof. And after that he will let you go.), and who shall turn it back? Isaiah 22 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.) , his pride shall be brought down together with the cunning of his hands. And the high fortress of thy walls will He bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.)).) For, behold, I will shake My hand over them, and they shall be a spoil to those that served them'; and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.
'Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion; for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
And many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be My people, and I will dwell in the midst of thee'; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
2 Samuel 1 And they wailed, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. And David said unto him: 'Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying: I have slain the LORD'S anointed.'. And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son, and said—To teach the sons of Judah the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jashar: Thy beauty, O Israel, upon thy high places is slain! How are the mighty fallen! How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished! Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of choice fruits; for there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil. From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty. (Zechariah 12 )
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Habakkuk 2 (The report) I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith. But the LORD is in His holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before Him. Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts that the peoples labour for the fire, and the nations weary themselves for vanity? For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53)
Zechariah 2 And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand. Then said I: 'Whither goest thou?' And he said unto me: 'To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.'
Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge (Measurement) did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Zechariah 4 Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying: 'This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying: Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. Who art thou, O great mountain before Zerubbabel? thou shalt become a plain; and he shall bring forth the top stone with shoutings of Grace, grace, unto it.(compassion, mercy)' 'The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. For who hath despised the day of small things? even they shall see with joy the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel, even these seven, which are the eyes of the LORD, that run to and fro through the whole earth.'
John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun (Bow); for distress will come in like a flood (like Noah's time), which the breath of the LORD driveth. (his spirit measured the waters)
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Hark! one calleth: 'Clear ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make plain in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the rugged shall be made level, and the rough places a plain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain; O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah: 'Behold your God!' Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One, and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath meted out the spirit of the LORD? Or who was His counsellor that he might instruct Him? With whom took He counsel, and who instructed Him, and taught Him in the path of right, and taught Him knowledge, and made Him to know the way of discernment? Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket (Zechariah 5), and are counted as the small dust of the balance; behold the isles are as a mote in weight. To whom then will ye liken God? Or what likeness (Psalm17) will ye compare unto Him? Know ye not? hear ye not? Hath it not been told you from the beginning? Have ye not understood the foundations of the earth? To whom then will ye liken Me, that I should be equal? saith the Holy One. Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel: 'My way is hid from the LORD, and my right is passed over from my God'? Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? His discernment is past searching out.
Jeremiah 22 For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before Me, saith the Lord GOD.
Jeremiah 17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond; it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars. Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceeding weak—who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. Thou throne of glory, on high from the beginning, thou place of our sanctuary Thou hope of Israel, the LORD! All that forsake Thee shall be ashamed; they that depart from Thee shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for Thou art my praise. Behold, they say unto me: 'Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.' As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after Thee; neither have I desired the woeful day; Thou knowest it; that which came out of my lips was manifest before Thee. Be not a ruin unto me; Thou art my refuge in the day of evil. Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; Let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction (
Psalm 7 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked. If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness; Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins. My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge (Isaiah 33 Righterous), yea, a God that hath indignation every day: Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Nahum 2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.— Isaiah 19 And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof; and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits. and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Jeremiah 19 and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Zechariah 1:11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said: 'We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.' Jeremiah 30 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. Zechariah 6 Then cried he upon me, and spoke unto me, saying: 'Behold, they that go toward the north country have eased My spirit in the north country(Ezekiel 1 And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire flashing up, so that a brightness was round about it; and out of the midst thereof as the colour of electrum, out of the midst of the fire.). Isaiah 14 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet; they break forth into singing. Isaiah 24 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. Jeremiah 51 And I will send unto Babylon strangers, that shall fan her, and they shall empty her land; for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
plummet of emptiness Proverb 21 To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin to the workers of iniquity plumbline Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Jeremiah 16 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.). and say unto them: Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates; thus saith the LORD: Take heed for the sake of your souls, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; then shall there enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city shall be inhabited for ever. And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the Lowland, and from the mountains, and from the South, bringing burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and meal-offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving, unto the house of the LORD. But if ye will not hearken unto Me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
Jeremiah 22 Thus saith the LORD: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor; and do no wrong, do no violence, to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place. For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people. But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by Myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation. Then they shall answer: 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.' Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by injustice; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not his hire; Shalt thou reign, because thou strivest to excel in cedar? Did not thy father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him. He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Is not this to know Me? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 23 Woe unto the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture! saith the LORD. And I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, saith the LORD. Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous shoot, and he shall reign as king and prosper, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The LORD is our righteousness. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt'; but: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up and that led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whither I had driven them'; and they shall dwell in their own land. Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome; because of the LORD, and because of His holy words. For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth, the pastures of the wilderness are dried up; and their course is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are ungodly; yea, in My house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD. Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery places in the darkness, they shall be thrust, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 58
Yet they seek Me daily, and delight to know My ways; as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God, they ask of Me righteous ordinances, they delight to draw near unto God.
Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the fetters of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy healing shall spring forth speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee, the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward. Then shalt thou call, and the LORD will answer; thou shalt cry, and He will say: 'Here I am.' If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedness; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in darkness, and thy gloom be as the noon-day; And the LORD will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places, thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called The repairer of the breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in. If thou turn away thy foot because of the sabbath, from pursuing thy business on My holy day (Deut 10 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul; to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day? Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day. Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward. He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear. He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen. Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.); and call the sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honourable; and shalt honour it, not doing thy wonted ways, nor pursuing thy business, nor speaking thereof; Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD, and I will make thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and I will feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Jeremiah 23 Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, yea, a whirling storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. The anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart; in the end of days ye shall consider it perfectly. I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran; I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they have stood in My council, then let them cause My people to hear My words, and turn them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. Am I a God near at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off? Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 51 Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in Leb-kamai, a destroying wind (spirit of a destroyer with fury and wrath Isaiah 54 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD. O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. Behold, they may gather together, but not by Me; whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee.). Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life, be not cut off in her iniquity; for it is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; He will render unto her a recompense. The LORD hath brought forth our victory; come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.
Isaiah 54 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 14 Prepare ye slaughter (Isaiah 65 I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not. So that he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes.) for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they rise not up, and possess the earth, and fill the face of the world with cities. I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.
Jeremiah 51 Make bright the arrows, fill the quivers, the LORD hath roused the spirit of the kings of the Medes; because His device is against Babylon, to destroy it; for it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of His temple. Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, the governors thereof, and all the deputies thereof, and all the land of his dominion. Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set the watchmen, prepare the ambushes; for the LORD hath both devised and done that which He spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
Isaiah 52 Hark, thy watchmen! they lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see, eye to eye, the LORD returning to Zion. Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Jerusalem. The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD. For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward.
Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
Ezekiel 1 And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above. And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke. Ezekiel 10 the glory ((Isaiah 54 In righteousness shalt thou be established; be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from ruin, for it shall not come near thee. Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD.))
Isaiah 54
For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great compassion will I gather thee.
In a little wrath I hid My face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have compassion on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.
For this is as the waters of Noah unto Me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth (Genesis 9 'As for Me, behold, I establish My covenant with you, and with your seed after you; And God said: 'This is the token of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:), so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed; but My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall My covenant of peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath compassion on thee.
O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
Mal 3 Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.
Jeremiah 51 And Jeremiah wrote in one book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written concerning Babylon. And Jeremiah said to Seraiah: 'When thou comest to Babylon, then see that thou read all these words,and say: O LORD, Thou hast spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell therein, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever. and say: O LORD, Thou hast spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell therein, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever. and thou shalt say: Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise again because of the evil that I will bring upon her; and they shall be weary.' Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
Ezekiel 2 And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein; and He spread it before me, and it was written within and without; and there was written therein lamentations, and moaning, and woe.
Ezekiel 3 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, eat that which thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.' So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat that roll. And He said unto me: 'Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee.' Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness. 'Son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; and when thou shalt hear a word at My mouth, thou shalt give them warning from Me. Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, I will lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die; because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand. Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul.' And the hand of the LORD came there upon me; and He said unto me: 'Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there speak with thee.' Then I arose, and went forth into the plain; and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face. Then spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet; and He spoke with me, and said unto me: 'Go, shut thyself within thy house.
Ezekiel 4
And thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with thine arm uncovered; and thou shalt prophesy against it. (Plumb line)
Then He said unto me: 'See, I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereon.'
(Isaiah 54 In righteousness shalt thou be established; be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from ruin, for it shall not come near thee. Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD.)
Moreover He said unto me: 'Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxiety; and they shall drink water by measure (Justice, righteousness), and in appalment; that they may want bread and water, and be appalled one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples. Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, except it water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
Isaiah 65 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, My servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry; Behold, My servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty; Behold, My servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed;
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Execute justice), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.
And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm;(Jeremiah 51 Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in Leb-kamai, a destroying wind (spirit of a destroyer with fury and wrath Isaiah 54 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their due reward from Me, saith the LORD. O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. In righteousness shalt thou be established(Isaiah 14 Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent. Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks. What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, (Isaiah 33 He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure (Psalm 55 And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest. Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.' Psalm 139 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me. I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.). Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar (in Zion And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. Isaiah 32 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.). Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. )and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge (Isaiah 54 And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children Isaiah 32 And a man shall be as in a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.).); be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from ruin, for it shall not come near thee. Behold, they may gather together, but not by Me; whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee.). Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life, be not cut off in her iniquity; for it is the time of the LORD'S vengeance; He will render unto her a recompense. The LORD hath brought forth our victory; come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God. ) it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart; in the end of days ye shall consider it.
Psalm 76
In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey. The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry? Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee. Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared; He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
Isaiah 28 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it,
Isaiah 28 For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little.
For with stammering lips and with a strange tongue shall it be spoken to this people;
To whom it was said: 'This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing'; yet they would not hear.
Amos 7 Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand. And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline.' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
Isaiah 28 For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him. For the black cummin is not threshed with a threshing-sledge, neither is a cart-wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the black cummin is beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod(Spirit of God). This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts: Wonderful is His counsel, and great His wisdom.
Zechariah 5 Then said he unto me: 'This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land; for every one that stealeth shall be swept away on the one side like it; and every one that sweareth shall be swept away on the other side like it. And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth. (bucket/Efa)' He said moreover: 'This is their eye in all the land (plummet) and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.' And he said: 'This is Wickedness.' And he cast her down into the midst of the measure, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.(Over him) And he said unto me: 'To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.
Jeremiah 17 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond; it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars. Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceeding weak—who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. Thou throne of glory, on high from the beginning, thou place of our sanctuary Thou hope of Israel, the LORD! All that forsake Thee shall be ashamed; they that depart from Thee shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for Thou art my praise. Behold, they say unto me: 'Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.' As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after Thee; neither have I desired the woeful day; Thou knowest it; that which came out of my lips was manifest before Thee. Be not a ruin unto me; Thou art my refuge in the day of evil. Let them be ashamed that persecute me, but let not me be ashamed; Let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed; Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction ( Ekeziel 21 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of those to be slain; it is the sword of the great one that is to be slain, which compasseth them about.
2King 21 And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down (by line, with the measure, and plummet(justice and righteouness)).Isaiah 34 But the pelican and the bittern shall possess it, and the owl and the raven shall dwell therein; and He shall stretch over it the line of confusion, and the plummet of emptiness. plummet of emptiness Proverb 21 To do justly is joy to the righteous (to the plumb line that is in Zion, the stone of Grace), but ruin to the workers of iniquity. Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.' Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. Jeremiah 16 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.
Psalm 118 'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.' So let Israel now say, for His mercy endureth for ever, So let the house of Aaron now say, for His mercy endureth for ever. So let them now that fear the LORD say, for His mercy endureth for ever. Out of my straits I called upon the LORD; He answered me with great enlargement. The LORD is for me; I will not fear; what can man do unto me?(Isaiah 50).The LORD is for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes. They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off. They compass me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off. Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; but the LORD helped me. The LORD is my strength and song; and He is become my salvation. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. (Isaiah 53) The right hand of the LORD is exalted; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
Psalm 45 These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I passed on with the throng, and led them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping holyday. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why moanest thou within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise Him for the salvation of His countenance. Deep calleth unto deep at the voice of Thy cataracts; all Thy waves and Thy billows are gone over me (Isaiah 59, 8). By day the LORD will command His lovingkindness, and in the night His song shall be with me, even a prayer unto the God of my life. I will say unto God my Rock: 'Why hast Thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning under the oppression of the enemy?' Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why moanest thou within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 71
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
Deliver me in Thy righteousness, and rescue me; incline Thine ear unto me, and save me.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
O my God, rescue me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.
For Thou art my hope; O Lord GOD, my trust from my youth.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
Saying: 'God hath forsaken him; pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver.'(Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. )
O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me.(Psalm139, Jeremiah 24, 30) Let them be ashamed and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and confusion that seek my hurt. But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise Thee yet more and more.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth; and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.(isaiah 8, 50)
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me.
I also will give thanks unto Thee with the psaltery, even unto Thy truth, O my God; I will sing praises unto Thee with the harp, O Thou Holy One of Israel.
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing praises unto Thee; and my soul, which Thou hast redeemed.
Psalm 118 The LORD hath chastened me sore; but He hath not given me over unto death. Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD. This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter into it. I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation (the gate). The stone which the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone. This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. We beseech Thee, O LORD, save now! We beseech Thee, O LORD, make us now to prosper! Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD; we bless you out of the house of the LORD. The LORD is God, and hath given us light; order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar. Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee. O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.
Malachi 3 But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap;
Malachi 3 And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are built up; yea, they try God, and are delivered. Then they that feared the LORD spoke one with another; and the LORD hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before Him, for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon His name. But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
Lam2
The Lord hath swallowed up unsparingly all the habitations of Jacob; He hath thrown down in His wrath the strongholds of the daughter of Judah; He hath brought them down to the ground; He hath profaned the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Isaiah 53 Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Isaiah 63 In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
Jeremiah 31 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. /For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.
Isaiah 22 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
And I will fasten him as a peg in a sure place; and he shall be for a throne of honour to his father's house.
(Zechariah 12 “And the Lord will give salvation to the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not surpass that of Judah. In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them (become a father with compassion).)
And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups even to all the vessels of flagons.
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.
Isaiah 28 Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, as a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, as a storm of mighty waters overflowing, that casteth down to the earth with violence. And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it,
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste.
Isaiah 8 Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the River, mighty and many, even the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks; And he shall sweep through Judah overflowing as he passeth through he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.
For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, admonishing me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:(Isaiah 50) And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 'Bind up the testimony, seal the instruction among My disciples.' And I will wait for the LORD, that hideth His face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for Him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me shall be for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion. for instruction and for testimony?'—Surely they will speak according to this word, wherein there is no light.—
Zechariah 12 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.
Habakkuk 3 O LORD, I have heard the report of Thee, and am afraid; O LORD, revive Thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make it known; in wrath remember compassion. And a brightness appeareth as the light; rays hath He at His side; and there is the hiding of His power. Before him goeth the pestilence, and fiery bolts go forth at His feet. He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old. Thy bow is made quite bare; sworn are the rods of the word. Selah. Thou dost cleave the earth with rivers. The sun and moon stand still in their habitation; at the light of Thine arrows as they go, at the shining of Thy glittering spear(Josh 10). Thou marchest through the earth in indignation, Thou threshest the nations in anger(Isaiah 21). Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck(Isaiah 7). Selah God, the Lord, is my strength, and He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and He maketh me to walk upon my high places. For the Leader. With my string-music.
Isaiah 55 Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David(compassion). Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Zechariah 1
And the LORD answered the angel that spoke with me with good words, even comforting words
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. (compassion)
Isaiah 57 I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also—they shall not profit thee. And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners. Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.
Zechariah 1
so the angel that spoke with me said unto me: 'Proclaim thou, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy;
Therefore thus saith the LORD: I return to Jerusalem with compassions: My house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem. Again, proclaim, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: My cities shall again overflow with prosperity; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.' (the Plumb line)
Amos 6
Ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say: 'Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?' For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD, the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of the Arabah.Amos 7 The LORD repented concerning this; 'This also shall not be', saith the Lord GOD. Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand. And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline.' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline (David compassion) in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
2 Samuel 24
And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He moved David against them, saying: 'Go, number Israel and Judah.'
And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD: 'I have sinned greatly in what I have done; but now, O LORD, put away, I beseech Thee, the iniquity of Thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.'
And David said unto Gad: 'I am in a great strait; let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for His mercies are great; and let me not fall into the hand of man.'
So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed; and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men. And when the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented Him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people: 'It is enough; now stay thy hand.' And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite. And David spoke unto the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said: 'Lo, I have sinned, and I have done iniquitously; but these sheep, what have they done? let Thy hand, I pray Thee, be against me, and against my father's house.' (Offer himself) And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him: 'Go up, rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.'And Araunah looked forth, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him; and Araunah went out, and bowed down before the king with his face to the ground. And Araunah said: 'Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant?' And David said: 'To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar unto the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.' And Araunah said unto David: 'Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him; behold the oxen for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-instruments and the furniture of the oxen for the wood.' And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
1 Samuel 2 “The bows of the mighty men are broken.
Those who stumbled are armed with strength. The LORD killeth, and maketh alive; He bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich; He bringeth low, He also lifteth up. He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, He lifteth up the needy from the dung-hill, to make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory; for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and He hath set the world upon them. They that strive with the LORD shall be broken to pieces; against them will He thunder in heaven; the LORD will judge the ends of the earth; and He will give strength unto His king, and exalt the horn of His anointed.
Deutorenomio 33 Happy art thou, O Israel, who is like unto thee? a people saved by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and that is the sword of thy excellency! And thine enemies shall dwindle away before thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
Psalm 84 For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
(of Justice Isaiah 57:10 Thou wast wearied with the length of thy way; yet saidst thou not: 'There is no hope'; thou didst find a renewal of thy strength, therefore thou wast not affected. And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also they shall not profit thee.
Isaiah 57:10
בְּרֹב דַּרְכֵּךְ יָגַעַתְּ לֹא אָמַרְתְּ נוֹאָשׁ חַיַּת יָדֵךְ מָצָאת עַל־כֵּן לֹא חָלִֽית׃
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. And a man shall be as in a hiding-place(Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.) from the wind, and a covert from the tempest (Jeremiah 30 Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God); as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend. The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly. The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble
Isaiah 33 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might(My servant). The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'). But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand(Psalm18 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in Him I take refuge; my shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;(open to look on rightenous Zechariah 2 For thus saith the LORD of hosts who sent me after glory unto the nations which spoiled you: 'Surely, he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. Zechariah 4 his eyes in all the earth) Zechariah 5And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their (iniquity, blindeness, darkness)eye in all the land. 2 Sam 16 It may be that the LORD will look on mine eye, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing of me this day.' Hos 10 Surely now shall they say: 'We have no king; for we feared not the LORD; and the king, what can he do for us?' The inhabitants of Samaria shall be in dread for the calves of Beth-aven; for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof shall tremble for it, for its glory, because it is departed from it. It also shall be carried unto Assyria, for a present to King Contentious; Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel. As for Samaria, her king is cut off, as foam upon the water (winepress Isaiah 63, 27, 59,28 ). When it is My desire, I will chastise them; and the peoples shall be gathered against them, when they are yoked to their two rings And Ephraim is a heifer well broken, that loveth to thresh, and I have passed over upon her fair neck; I will make Ephraim to ride, Judah shall plow, Jacob shall break his clods. Sow to yourselves according to righteousness, reap according to mercy,(threshfloor Isaiah 28) break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, till He come and cause righteousness to rain upon you(Isaiah 28). Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity, ye have eaten the fruit of lies; for thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy hosts, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle; the mother was dashed in pieces with her children(Psalm137 How shall we sing the LORD'S song in a foreign land? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I remember thee not; if I set not Jerusalem above my chiefest joy. Remember, O LORD, against the children of Edom the day of Jerusalem; who said: 'Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.' O daughter of Babylon, that art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that repayeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the rock.). So hath Beth-el done unto you because of your great wickedness; at daybreak is the king of Israel utterly cut off.) He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. The cords of Death compassed me, and the floods of Belial assailed me. The cords of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of Death confronted me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God; out of His temple He heard my voice, and my cry came before Him unto His ears (Isaiah 50 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.). He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. He made darkness His hiding-place, His pavilion round about Him; darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. He brought me forth also into a large place (Deu 33:20 And of Gad he said: Blessed be He that enlargeth Gad; he dwelleth as a lioness, and teareth the arm, yea, the crown of the head. (Isaiah54 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations, spare not; lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.,)(Isaiah33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.); He delivered me, because He delighted in me. (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God)And I was single-hearted with Him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity. The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness(Salvation Psalm 68 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captivity captive; Thou hast received gifts among men, yea, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.); according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me. (Is43:4)).
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
מִי בָכֶם יְרֵא יְהֹוָה שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל עַבְדּוֹ אֲשֶׁר ׀ הָלַךְ חֲשֵׁכִים וְאֵין נֹגַהּ לוֹ יִבְטַח בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה וְיִשָּׁעֵן בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃
Isaiah 33:16 He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure.

Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.

Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.
וְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲוֺנֹתֵינוּ מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא־לָֽנוּ׃
Malachi 3:20 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
וְזָרְחָה לָכֶם יִרְאֵי שְׁמִי שֶׁמֶשׁ צְדָקָה וּמַרְפֵּא בִּכְנָפֶיהָ וִיצָאתֶם וּפִשְׁתֶּם כְּעֶגְלֵי מַרְבֵּֽק׃
Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not (Isaiah 57 I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also” they shall not profit thee.)? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live (); and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.(Isaiah 53 By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant (Jacob), who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear (Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.(Malachi 3 healing in its wings)). Therefore will I divide him a portion among the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the mighty; because he bared his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.) Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee.)
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
מִי בָכֶם יְרֵא יְהֹוָה שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל עַבְדּוֹ אֲשֶׁר ׀ הָלַךְ חֲשֵׁכִים וְאֵין נֹגַהּ לוֹ יִבְטַח בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה וְיִשָּׁעֵן בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃

Isaiah 55:6-7 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.

Isaiah 59:20 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob (Isaiah 14 For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob (Hoshea 6 For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings.), and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land; and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the peoples shall take them, and bring them to their place; and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and for handmaids; and they shall take them captive, whose captives they were (Psalm18,68); and they shall rule over their oppressors. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve (Isaiah 40), And thou saidst in thy heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne, and I will sit upon the mount of meeting, in the uttermost parts of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.' Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, thou hast slain thy people; the seed of evil-doers shall not be named for ever.
Isaiah 14 What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.

Isaiah 57:11-19 And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also—they shall not profit thee When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain. And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit that enwrappeth itself is from Me, and the souls which I have made. For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth and smote him, I hid Me and was wroth; and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners. Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.

Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone Isaiah 65 Behold, it is written before Me; I will not keep silence, except I have requited, yea, I will requite into their bosom, Your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, that have offered upon the mountains, and blasphemed Me upon the hills; therefore will I first measure their wage into their bosom.) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53) I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not.
Isaiah 14 For the Lord will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel, and will set them in their own land, and sojourners will join them and will attach themselves to the house of Jacob. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve. that thou shalt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say: How hath the oppressor ceased! the exactress of gold ceased!
Proverbs 31 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household, and a portion to her maidens. She considereth a field, and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. She girdeth her loins with strength, and maketh strong her arms. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Psalm 68
They see Thy goings, O God, even the goings of my God, my King, in holiness.
Habakkuk 3
He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old.
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins.
Nahum 2:1 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that announceth peace! Keep thy feasts, O Judah, perform thy vows; for the wicked one shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off. A maul is come up before thy face; guard the defences, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily!— For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.—
Psalm 68 That thy foot may wade through blood, that the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.'
deu 21 then it shall be, in the day that he causeth his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved the first-born before the son of the hated, who is the first-born;but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath; for he is the first-fruits of his strength, the right of the first-born is his.
Job11
It is high as heaven; what canst thou do? Deeper than the nether-world; what canst thou know? The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea. If thou set thy heart aright, and stretch out thy hands toward Him— For He knoweth base men; and when He seeth iniquity, will He not then consider it? If iniquity be in thy hand, put it far away, and let not unrighteousness dwell in thy tents— Surely then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear; For thou shalt forget thy misery; thou shalt remember it as waters that are passed away; And thy life shall be clearer than the noonday; though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning.
Psalm 149
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand; To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements upon the peoples; To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.
2sam 16And again, whom should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.'
Deut 15 If thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, he shall serve thee six years; and in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee. And when thou lettest him go free from thee, thou shalt not let him go empty; And it shall be, if he say unto thee: 'I will not go out from thee'; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he fareth well with thee; then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust it through his ear and into the door, and he shall be thy bondman for ever. And also unto thy bondwoman thou shalt do likewise. It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou lettest him go free from thee; for to the double of the hire of a hireling hath he served thee six years; and the LORD thy God will bless thee in all that thou doest.
Exodus 22 For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, whereof one saith: 'This is it,' the cause of both parties shall come before God; he whom God shall condemn shall pay double unto his neighbour.
Gen 43 And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
Zechariah 9 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee. For I bend Judah for Me, I fill the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Javan, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man
Isaiah 61 But ye shall be named the priests of the LORD, men shall call you the ministers of our God; ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their splendour shall ye revel. For your shame which was double, and for that they rejoiced: 'Confusion is their portion'; therefore in their land they shall possess double, everlasting joy shall be unto them. For I the LORD love justice, I hate robbery with iniquity; and I will give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed
(Isaiah 60 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. The smallest shall become a thousand, and the least a mighty nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time.) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of victory, as a bridegroom putteth on a priestly diadem, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her growth, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause victory and glory to spring forth before all the nations.
Isaiah 49 And He said unto me: 'Thou art My servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.'.
Isaiah 60 Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee.
Isaiah 61 Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.
Isaiah 44 Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel. Then Moses said unto Aaron: 'This is it that the LORD spoke, saying:
Leviticus 10 Through them that are nigh unto Me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.' And Aaron held his peace.
Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.
Isaiah 32 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
Matthew 5 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they shall be satiated!
Isaiah 41 The poor and needy seek water and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst; I the LORD will answer them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I will open rivers on the high hills, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia-tree, and the myrtle, and the oil-tree; I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together; That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. I have roused up one from the north, and he is come, from the rising of the sun (Isaiah 42 Behold My servant, whom I uphold; Mine elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon him, he shall make the right to go forth to the nations. A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth. He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching. Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness (Jeremiah 30:21 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall renew the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations; I am the LORD, that is My name; and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Malachi 3 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts) one that calleth upon My name; and he shall come upon rulers as upon mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay. (is60-61).
Isaiah 48 And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 43 I bring near My righteousness, it shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not tarry; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel My glory.
Isaiah 59 And He saw that there was no man, and was astonished that there was no intercessor; therefore His own arm brought salvation unto Him; and His righteousness, it sustained Him;
Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek. ').
Isaiah 66:1-2 Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me? And where is the place that may be My resting-place?
For all these things hath My hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith the LORD; but on this man will I look, even on him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word.
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places(Isaiah 33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. But there the LORD will be with us in majesty, in a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. Isaiah 52 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Ezekiel 44 in that ye have brought in aliens, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to profane it, even My house, when ye offer My bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken My covenant, to add unto all your abominations. Thus saith the Lord GOD: No alien, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into My sanctuary, even any alien that is among the children of Israel.);
Ezekiel 1 And above the expanse over their heads there was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like sapphire (Isaiah 54 ); and seated above the likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance.
And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
Ezekiel 8 Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins and downward, fire; and from his loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of electrum.
Daniel 10 I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz; his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he went in in my sight. Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court. And the glory of the LORD mounted up from the cherub to the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory. And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when He speaketh. And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel. And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
Isaiah 6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up (Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant)), and His train filled the temple. Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory. And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. Zecharia 14 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel; yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake (Servant become king Proverb 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;) in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with Thee.
Isaiah 2 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. For the LORD of hosts hath a day upon all that is proud and lofty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places;
Daniel 7 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of days, and he was brought near (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. ) before Him.
Ezekiel 43:6
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me(one who tremble at God words and do Justice).

Isaiah 29 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale; When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.

Isaiah 33:14-17
The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?' He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil; He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.

That hath no slander upon his tongue, nor doeth evil to his fellow, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honoureth them that fear the LORD; he that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;
He that putteth not out his money on interest, nor taketh a bribe against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

Now these are the last words of David: The saying of David the son of Jesse, and the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel:The spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and His word was upon my tongue.The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.' For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow?

Numbers 24 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at the other times, to meet with enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness. And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel dwelling tribe by tribe; and the spirit of God came upon him. And he took up his parable, and said: The saying of Balaam the son of Beor, and the saying of the man whose eye is opened; The saying of him who heareth the words of God, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes: How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars beside the waters; Water shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters; and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. God who brought him forth out of Egypt is for him like the lofty horns of the wild-ox; he shall eat up the nations that are his adversaries, and shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee.

Hoshea 11
When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son. And I, I taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I surrender thee, Israel? How shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboim? My heart is turned within Me, My compassions are kindled together. I will not execute the fierceness of Mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, the Holy One in the midst of thee; and I will not come in fury. They shall walk after the LORD, who shall roar like a lion; for He shall roar, and the children shall come trembling from the west.
Isaiah 63 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
Psalm 8 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him? Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. (Psalm50 for God, He is judge (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom (his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor Mighty God, Everlasting Father (Isaiah 22 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. Jeremiah 30 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. Zechariah 12 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being (likeness Genesis 1:26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.' Psalm 17 As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.), as the angel of the LORD (as a father) before them.), Prince of Peace.); Isaiah 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.). Selah Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Zechariah 12
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.
In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
Joel 3
And the LORD shall roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the LORD will be a refuge unto His people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel. So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion My holy mountain; then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
Zechariah 13
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.' Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones (by the sword).
Isaiah21 A grievous vision is declared unto me: 'The treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam! besiege, O Media! All the sighing thereof have I made to cease.'Therefore are my loins filled with convulsion; pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; I am bent so that I cannot hear; I am affrighted so that I cannot see. My heart is bewildered, terror hath overwhelmed me; the twilight that I longed for hath been turned for me into trembling. And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'
And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
Jeremiah 49 And I will bring against Elam the four winds (the sword) from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the dispersed of Elam shall not come. And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them;
Psalm 55 My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me(sword).
Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest.
Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah
I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.'
For it was not an enemy that taunted me, then I could have borne it; neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, then I would have hid myself from him. (he took him and save him)
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked.
Psalm 139 Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world (Elam), behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me. And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night'; Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light. For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My frame(Glory, Cyrus, David) was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance (Isaiah 50 I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. Isaiah 53 no form nor comeliness, Isaiah 52 According as many were appalled at thee” so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men, Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; Isaiah 42 Who is blind, but My servant? Or deaf, as My messenger that I send? Who is blind as he that is wholehearted, and blind as the LORD'S servant?), and in Thy book they were all written”even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God”depart from me therefore, ye men of blood; Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; And I have not learned wisdom, that I should have the knowledge of the Holy One. Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest? Every word of God is tried(Jeremiah 17); He is a shield unto them that take refuge in Him. Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. Two things have I asked of Thee; deny me them not before I die: Remove far from me falsehood and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with mine allotted bread; Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God. Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;
Psalms 2 The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His anointed: 'Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.' He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision. 'Truly it is I that have established My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.' I will tell of the decree: the LORD said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee. Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.' Now therefore, O ye kings, be wise; be admonished, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Do homage in purity (Kiss the Son נַשְּׁקוּ־בַר), lest He be angry, and ye perish in the way, when suddenly His wrath is kindled. Happy are all they that take refuge in Him.
Ezekiel 32 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude; her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in the midst of them that are slain. For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.'
Ezekiel21
and say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth My sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their(By the sword Zhecaria 13:7) eyes. And thou, O wicked one, that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; thus saith the Lord GOD: The mitre shall be removed, and the crown taken off; this shall be no more the same: that which is low shall be exalted, and that which is high abased. A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, will I make it; this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
Ezekiel 17
Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent;
in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness (Isaiah 38) the girdle of his reins.
Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD.For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward. Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. He was despised, and forsaken of men, a man of pains, and acquainted with disease, and as one from whom men hide their face: he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked (Elam), and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.'Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears;And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious (Damascus from the Sun rise)
Zecharia 9 The burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place; for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass. As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
Jeremiah 49 And I will set My throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD. But it shall come to pass in the end of days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam (Mede King, Cyrus, David), saith the LORD.
Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people; then whosoever heareth the sound of the horn, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head;
Psalm 89 Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, and saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. I have found David My servant; with My holy oil have I anointed him; With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.
Zecharia 8 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.' (Emmanuel 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth (Elam, Jacob, Servant), or in the height above.(Cyrus, David, Sheppard)' Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman (Unmarried woman, in fact a virgin one, a maiden according to Yeshua disciples) shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.)
Isaiah 45 Thus saith the LORD: The labour of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine; they shall go after thee, in chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee: Surely God is in thee (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom ( called by Mighty God or God with Us "Yeshua") ), and there is none else, there is no other God. Verily Thou art a God that hidest. Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me. Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else. By Myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from My mouth in righteousness, and shall not come back, that unto Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Only in the LORD, shall one say of Me, is victory and strength; even to Him shall men come in confusion, all they that were incensed against Him. Thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour. In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Ezekiel 37 Then He said unto me: 'Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them: O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.' Then said He unto me: 'Prophesy unto the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.' Then He said unto me: 'Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say: Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off. Therefore prophesy, and say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, O My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel And I will put My spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I will place you in your own land; and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken, and performed it, saith the LORD.'And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
Numbers 23 Behold, I am bidden to bless; and when He hath blessed, I cannot call it back. None hath beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath one seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shouting for the King is among them. God who brought them forth out of Egypt is for them like the lofty horns of the wild-ox.For there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel; now is it said of Jacob and of Israel: 'What hath God wrought!' Behold a people that riseth up as a lioness, and as a lion doth he lift himself up; he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
Isaiah 66:3-4 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he broke a dog's neck; he that offereth a meal-offering, as if he offered swine's blood; he that maketh a memorial-offering of frankincense, as if he blessed an idol; according as they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations; Even so I will choose their mockings, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear, but they did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Hark! an uproar from the city, Hark! it cometh from the temple, Hark! the LORD rendereth recompense to His enemies.
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child. Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD; Shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God.

Psalm7
O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me; Lest he tear my soul like a lion (Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'), rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness; Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth(Elam); yea, let him lay my glory in the dust (
Nahum 2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.—
Isaiah 19 And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof; and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits. and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Isaiah 24 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. Jeremiah 51 And I will send unto Babylon strangers, that shall fan her, and they shall empty her land; for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
). Selah. Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Jacob as servant expose God justice Isaiah 57), and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins (Zecharia 6 even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory(Came framed as the Glory of God Isaiah 60 to the one who turn from transgression in Jacob), and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest before his throne (Jacob as servant and his sacrifice, no form Isaiah 59); and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.(King and priest in his throne, staff of Aaron)) Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110 A Psalm of David. The LORD saith unto my lord: 'Sit thou at My right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.' The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: The rod of Thy strength (rod of Aaron) the LORD will send out of Zion: 'Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.''Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek.' Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you (as Son); therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.') .). My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Isaias 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
Ezekiel 21 And thou, O wicked one (Psalm 7 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Zacariah 5 Curse)), that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; (Is53, zac13:7 su a migo, el pastor jacob)) num24:9 He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up?(zac13:7 Awake, O sword, against My shepherd (Jacob near God), and against the man that is near unto Me (Isaiah 50 He is near that justifieth me, Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Isaiah 41 But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend (<near to God Gen 15 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness.;), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones., jer 49 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make him run away from it, and whoso is chosen, him will I appoint over it; for who is like Me?(Ps17:15 I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.

He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old. Thy bow is made quite bare(is22 the shield too); sworn are the rods of the word. Selah. Thou dost cleave the earth with rivers. Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck. Selah Is40 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.', 42 The LORD was pleased, for His righteousness' sake, to make the teaching great and glorious. 45 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.)) and who will appoint Me a time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before Me?

But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.)

Psalm7 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready; He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp. Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

Isaiah 44 Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant (Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob
(For thus saith the LORD: Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout at the head of the nations; announce ye, praise ye, and say: 'O LORD, save Thy people, The remnant of Israel.' They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off (Island will wait his law), and say: 'He that scattered Israel doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.' For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he. And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of the LORD, to the corn, and to the wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered garden, and they shall not pine any more at all. )

Isaiah 59 And as for Me, this is My covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and My words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
Isaiah 44 And they shall spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses. One shall say: 'I am the LORD'S'; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel. Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God. And who, as I, can proclaim—let him declare it, and set it in order for Me—since I appointed the ancient people? And the things that are coming, and that shall come to pass, let them declare. Fear ye not, neither be afraid; have I not announced unto thee of old, and declared it? And ye are My witnesses. Is there a God beside Me? Yea, there is no Rock; I know not any. Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel

Isaiah 44 That confirmeth the word of His servant (Isaiah 41 But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend Gen15 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness. ), and performeth the counsel of His messengers; that saith of Jerusalem: 'She shall be inhabited'; and of the cities of Judah: 'They shall be built, and I will raise up the waste places thereof'; That saith to the deep: 'Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers';

Isaiah 40 Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One (servant), and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Even as a shepherd that feedeth his flock, that gathereth the lambs in his arm, and carrieth them in his bosom, and gently leadeth those that give suck.
Ezekiel 37 And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, for ever; and David My servant shall be their prince for ever. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them” it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will establish them, and multiply them, and will set My sanctuary in the midst of them for ever. And the nations shall know that I am the LORD that sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever. ()'
Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins() and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes. And thou, O wicked one (Psalm 7 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked), that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant(Jacob) shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.), have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
Micah 2 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will render them all as sheep in a fold; as a flock in the midst of their pasture; they shall make great noise by reason of the multitude of men.

Micah 5 Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. Therefore will He give them up, until the time that she who travaileth hath brought forth (Psalm7 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Jeremiah 31 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together; a great company shall they return hither.); then the residue of his brethren shall return with the children of Israel.

Micah 7 Tend Thy people with Thy staff, the flock of Thy heritage, that dwell solitarily, as a forest in the midst of the fruitful field; let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.'As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things.' Thou wilt show faithfulness to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, as Thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
Numbers 24 How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars (sons of the majestic cedar of Ezekiel) beside the waters; Water(Justice, Rightenous) shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters (isles); and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted (By offering himself (like Esther & Mardocai in sackcloth and repentance for Israel sins) and the gird of his loin low he is higher In Heaven(Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.)). He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee. The saying of him who heareth the words of God, and knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes (Servant Jacob): I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Jacob(Cyrus, David), and a scepter shall rise out of Israel(Sheppard's staff), and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth.
Isaiah 48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the fountain of Judah; who swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness. For My name's sake will I defer Mine anger, and for My praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. Behold, I have refined thee, but not as silver; I have tried thee in the furnace of affliction. I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for Mine own sake; and thy sins I will not remember. For Mine own sake, for Mine own sake, will I do it; for how should it be profaned? And My glory will I not give to another. Hearken unto Me, O Jacob, and Israel My called: I am He; I am the first, I also am the last. Yea, My hand hath laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand hath spread out the heavens; when I call unto them, they stand up together. Assemble yourselves, all ye, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? He whom the LORD loveth(Jacob his friend in Zacariah 13) shall perform His pleasure on Babylon, and show His arm (Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isaiah 53 'Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the LORD been revealed?) on the Chaldeans. I, even I, have spoken, yea, I have called him; I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. Come ye near unto Me, hear ye this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it was, there am I; and now the Lord GOD hath sent me, and His spirit(is57,61,mal3, is40 his glory). Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the LORD thy God, who teacheth thee for thy profit, who leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. Oh that thou wouldest hearken to My commandments! then would thy peace be as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea; And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant shall prosper (Jacob), he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
Micah 2 The breaker (sea breaker) is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them.
Isaiah 44 That saith of Cyrus (Meaning Sun, Star of Jacob, David, his scepter and Sheppard): 'He is My shepherd (God redeemer), and shall perform all My pleasure'; even saying of Jerusalem: 'She shall be built'; and to the temple: 'My foundation shall be laid.'
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious.
In those days, and at that time, will I cause a shoot of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name whereby she shall be called, the LORD is our righteousness. For thus saith the LORD: There shall not be cut off unto David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; neither shall there be cut off unto the priests the Levites a man before Me to offer burnt-offerings, and to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. (Jaco as servant sacrificing himself and returning as David in his throne) Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also My covenant be broken with David My servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. 'Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them(Become one as). then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David(as servant/sacrifice burnt and peace offerings with his life as priest. 2 Sammuel 6 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded (with justice) with a linen ephod (he behave like a priest after became king ). So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn(preach God words). And it was so, as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the LORD. And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said: 'How did the king of Israel get him honour to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!'And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry. And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight(to the ground, Sheol); and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.' Proverbs 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. Proverbs 21 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household (Blessing), and a portion to her maidens.) My servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.'
Psalm 74
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth(Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning (open eyes), He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward, Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.); and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth(Isaiah 7 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. (depth in Sheol and High as the heaven the Sun of righteousness)'
And he said: 'Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also?
Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. (God with Us, Cyrus)). Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me(Cyrus, Isaiah 60; 44-45).
Psalm 72 A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the king's son; That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy poor with justice.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant(Jacob) shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee”so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men” So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.), have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
Isaiah 14 The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of the rulers, For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent (redeem from sin Isaiah 6 Seraph). Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks (Isaiah 5:27 In its ranks, none is weary or stumbles,
They never sleep or slumber; The belts on their waists do not come loose,
Nor do the thongs of their sandals break.). What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.
Habbakuk 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith (friends of God).
Amos 9 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, that say: 'The evil shall not overtake nor confront us.' In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;
Isaiah 16 And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
Isaiah 60 Arise, shine (Cyrus, David), for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall throb and be enlarged (Tent); because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee. Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee. For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron; I will also make thy officers peace, and righteousness thy magistrates
Malachi 2 Yet ye say: 'Wherefore?' Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously, though she is thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And not one hath done so who had exuberance of spirit! For what seeketh the one? a seed given of God. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. For I hate putting away, saith the LORD, the God of Israel, and him that covereth his garment with violence, saith the LORD of hosts; therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say: 'Wherein have we wearied Him?' In that ye say: 'Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and He delighteth in them; or where is the God of justice?'.
Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts(redeemer). But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. For I the LORD change not; and ye, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. From the days of your fathers ye have turned aside from Mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto Me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye say: 'Wherein shall we return?' Will a man rob God? Yet ye rob Me. But ye say: 'Wherein have we robbed Thee?' In tithes and heave-offerings. Ye are cursed with the curse, yet ye rob Me, even this whole nation.(Jacob curse, zac5) Bring ye the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall be more than sufficiency. And I will rebuke the devourer for your good, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your land; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts Then shall ye again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth Him not.
Isaiah 60 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, the plane-tree and the larch together; to beautify the place of My sanctuary, and I will make the place of My feet glorious. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory.
(of Justice Isaiah 57:10 Thou wast wearied with the length of thy way; yet saidst thou not: 'There is no hope'; thou didst find a renewal of thy strength, therefore thou wast not affected. And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also they shall not profit thee.
Isaiah 57:10
בְּרֹב דַּרְכֵּךְ יָגַעַתְּ לֹא אָמַרְתְּ נוֹאָשׁ חַיַּת יָדֵךְ מָצָאת עַל־כֵּן לֹא חָלִֽית׃
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. And a man shall be as in a hiding-place(Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.) from the wind, and a covert from the tempest (Jeremiah 30 Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God); as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend. The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly. The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble
Isaiah 33 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might(My servant). The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'). But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand(Psalm18 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in Him I take refuge; my shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;) He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. The cords of Death compassed me, and the floods of Belial assailed me. The cords of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of Death confronted me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God; out of His temple He heard my voice, and my cry came before Him unto His ears (Isaiah 50 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.). He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. He made darkness His hiding-place, His pavilion round about Him; darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. He brought me forth also into a large place (Deu 33:20 And of Gad he said: Blessed be He that enlargeth Gad; he dwelleth as a lioness, and teareth the arm, yea, the crown of the head. (Isaiah54 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations, spare not; lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.,)(Isaiah33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.); He delivered me, because He delighted in me. (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God)And I was single-hearted with Him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity. The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness(Salvation Psalm 68 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captivity captive; Thou hast received gifts among men, yea, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.); according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me. (Is43:4)).
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
מִי בָכֶם יְרֵא יְהֹוָה שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל עַבְדּוֹ אֲשֶׁר ׀ הָלַךְ חֲשֵׁכִים וְאֵין נֹגַהּ לוֹ יִבְטַח בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה וְיִשָּׁעֵן בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃
Isaiah 33:16 He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure.

Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.
וְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲוֺנֹתֵינוּ מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא־לָֽנוּ׃
Malachi 3:20 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
וְזָרְחָה לָכֶם יִרְאֵי שְׁמִי שֶׁמֶשׁ צְדָקָה וּמַרְפֵּא בִּכְנָפֶיהָ וִיצָאתֶם וּפִשְׁתֶּם כְּעֶגְלֵי מַרְבֵּֽק׃
Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not (Isaiah 57 I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also” they shall not profit thee.)? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live (); and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.(Isaiah 53 By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant (Jacob), who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear (Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.(Malachi 3 healing in its wings)). Therefore will I divide him a portion among the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the mighty; because he bared his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.) Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee.)
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.

”חיזרו בתשובה!“קרא יוחנן.”שובו אל ה׳ כי מלכות השמים קרובה!“
Isaiah 55:6-7 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.

Isaiah 59:20 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
וּבָא לְצִיּוֹן גּוֹאֵל וּלְשָׁבֵי פֶשַׁע בְּיַֽעֲקֹב נְאֻם יְהֹוָֽה׃
Isaiah 57:11-19 And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also—they shall not profit thee When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain. And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit that enwrappeth itself is from Me, and the souls which I have made. For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth and smote him, I hid Me and was wroth; and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners. Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.

Isaiah 14 For the Lord will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel, and will set them in their own land, and sojourners will join them and will attach themselves to the house of Jacob. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve. that thou shalt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say: How hath the oppressor ceased! the exactress of gold ceased!
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins.
Zechariah 9 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee. For I bend Judah for Me, I fill the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Javan, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man
Isaiah 61 But ye shall be named the priests of the LORD, men shall call you the ministers of our God; ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their splendour shall ye revel. For your shame which was double, and for that they rejoiced: 'Confusion is their portion'; therefore in their land they shall possess double, everlasting joy shall be unto them. For I the LORD love justice, I hate robbery with iniquity; and I will give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed (Isaiah 60 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. The smallest shall become a thousand, and the least a mighty nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time.) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of victory, as a bridegroom putteth on a priestly diadem, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her growth, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause victory and glory to spring forth before all the nations.
Isaiah 49 And He said unto me: 'Thou art My servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.'.

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.
Isaiah 44 Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel. Then Moses said unto Aaron: 'This is it that the LORD spoke, saying:
Leviticus 10 Through them that are nigh unto Me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.' And Aaron held his peace.
Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.

Matthew 5 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they shall be satiated!
Isaiah 41 The poor and needy seek water and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst; I the LORD will answer them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I will open rivers on the high hills, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia-tree, and the myrtle, and the oil-tree; I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together; That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. I have roused up one from the north, and he is come, from the rising of the sun (Isaiah 42 Behold My servant, whom I uphold; Mine elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon him, he shall make the right to go forth to the nations. A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth. He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching. Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness (Jeremiah 30:21 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall renew the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations; I am the LORD, that is My name; and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Malachi 3 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts) one that calleth upon My name; and he shall come upon rulers as upon mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay. (is60-61).
Isaiah 48 And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 43 I bring near My righteousness, it shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not tarry; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel My glory.
Isaiah 59 And He saw that there was no man, and was astonished that there was no intercessor; therefore His own arm brought salvation unto Him; and His righteousness, it sustained Him;
Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek. ').
Isaiah 66:1-2 Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me? And where is the place that may be My resting-place?
For all these things hath My hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith the LORD; but on this man will I look, even on him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word.
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places(Isaiah 33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. But there the LORD will be with us in majesty, in a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. Isaiah 52 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Ezekiel 44 in that ye have brought in aliens, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to profane it, even My house, when ye offer My bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken My covenant, to add unto all your abominations. Thus saith the Lord GOD: No alien, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into My sanctuary, even any alien that is among the children of Israel.);
Ezekiel 1 And above the expanse over their heads there was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like sapphire (Isaiah 54 ); and seated above the likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance.
And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
Ezekiel 8 Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins and downward, fire; and from his loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of electrum.
Daniel 10 I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz; his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he went in in my sight. Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court. And the glory of the LORD mounted up from the cherub to the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory. And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when He speaketh. And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel. And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
Isaiah 6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up (Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant)), and His train filled the temple. Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory. And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. Zecharia 14 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel; yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake (Servant become king Proverb 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;) in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with Thee.
Isaiah 2 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. For the LORD of hosts hath a day upon all that is proud and lofty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.

Daniel 7 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of days, and he was brought near (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. ) before Him.
Ezekiel 43:6
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me(one who tremble at God words and do Justice).

Isaiah 29 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale; When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.

The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?' He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil; He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.

Psalm 15 A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall sojourn in Thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell upon Thy holy mountain?
He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh truth in his heart;
That hath no slander upon his tongue, nor doeth evil to his fellow, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honoureth them that fear the LORD; he that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;
He that putteth not out his money on interest, nor taketh a bribe against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

Psalm 24 A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
Who shall ascend into the mountain of the LORD? and who shall stand in His holy place?
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not taken My name in vain, and hath not sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. Such is the generation of them that seek after Him, that seek Thy face, even Jacob.

Ezekiel 43:7
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne (everlasting burning, high), and the place of the soles of My feet (My mighty one^), where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places;
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי בֶּן־אָדָם אֶת־מְקוֹם כִּסְאִי וְאֶת־מְקוֹם כַּפּוֹת רַגְלַי אֲשֶׁר אֶשְׁכׇּן־שָׁם בְּתוֹךְ בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל לְעוֹלָם וְלֹא יְטַמְּאוּ עוֹד בֵּֽית־יִשְׂרָאֵל שֵׁם קׇדְשִׁי הֵמָּה וּמַלְכֵיהֶם בִּזְנוּתָם וּבְפִגְרֵי מַלְכֵיהֶם בָּמוֹתָֽם׃
2 Samuel 23
Now these are the last words of David: The saying of David the son of Jesse, and the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel:The spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and His word was upon my tongue.The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.' For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow?

Numbers 24 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at the other times, to meet with enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness. And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel dwelling tribe by tribe; and the spirit of God came upon him. And he took up his parable, and said: The saying of Balaam the son of Beor, and the saying of the man whose eye is opened; The saying of him who heareth the words of God, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes: How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars beside the waters; Water shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters; and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. God who brought him forth out of Egypt is for him like the lofty horns of the wild-ox; he shall eat up the nations that are his adversaries, and shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee.

Hoshea 11
When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son. And I, I taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I surrender thee, Israel? How shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboim? My heart is turned within Me, My compassions are kindled together. I will not execute the fierceness of Mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, the Holy One in the midst of thee; and I will not come in fury. They shall walk after the LORD, who shall roar like a lion; for He shall roar, and the children shall come trembling from the west.
Isaiah 63 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
Psalm 8 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him? Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. (Psalm50 for God, He is judge (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom (his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor Mighty God, Everlasting Father (Isaiah 22 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. Jeremiah 30 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. Zechariah 12 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being (likeness Genesis 1:26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.' Psalm 17 As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.), as the angel of the LORD (as a father) before them.), Prince of Peace.); Isaiah 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.). Selah Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Zechariah 12
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.
In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
Joel 3
And the LORD shall roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the LORD will be a refuge unto His people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel. So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion My holy mountain; then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
Zechariah 13
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.' Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones (by the sword).
Isaiah21 A grievous vision is declared unto me: 'The treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam! besiege, O Media! All the sighing thereof have I made to cease.'Therefore are my loins filled with convulsion; pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; I am bent so that I cannot hear; I am affrighted so that I cannot see. My heart is bewildered, terror hath overwhelmed me; the twilight that I longed for hath been turned for me into trembling. And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'
And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
Jeremiah 49 And I will bring against Elam the four winds (the sword) from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the dispersed of Elam shall not come. And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them;
Psalm 55 My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me(sword).
Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest.
Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah
I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.'
For it was not an enemy that taunted me, then I could have borne it; neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, then I would have hid myself from him. (he took him and save him)
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked.
Psalm 139 Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world (Elam), behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me. And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night'; Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light. For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My frame(Glory, Cyrus, David) was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance (Isaiah 50 I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. Isaiah 53 no form nor comeliness, Isaiah 52 According as many were appalled at thee” so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men, Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; Isaiah 42 Who is blind, but My servant? Or deaf, as My messenger that I send? Who is blind as he that is wholehearted, and blind as the LORD'S servant?), and in Thy book they were all written”even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God”depart from me therefore, ye men of blood; Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; And I have not learned wisdom, that I should have the knowledge of the Holy One. Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest? Every word of God is tried(Jeremiah 17); He is a shield unto them that take refuge in Him. Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. Two things have I asked of Thee; deny me them not before I die: Remove far from me falsehood and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with mine allotted bread; Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God. Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;
Psalms 2 The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His anointed: 'Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.' He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision. 'Truly it is I that have established My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.' I will tell of the decree: the LORD said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee. Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.' Now therefore, O ye kings, be wise; be admonished, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Do homage in purity (Kiss the Son נַשְּׁקוּ־בַר), lest He be angry, and ye perish in the way, when suddenly His wrath is kindled. Happy are all they that take refuge in Him.
Ezekiel 32 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude; her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in the midst of them that are slain. For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.'
Ezekiel21
and say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth My sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their(By the sword Zhecaria 13:7) eyes. And thou, O wicked one, that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; thus saith the Lord GOD: The mitre shall be removed, and the crown taken off; this shall be no more the same: that which is low shall be exalted, and that which is high abased. A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, will I make it; this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
Ezekiel 17
Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent;
in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD.For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward. Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. He was despised, and forsaken of men, a man of pains, and acquainted with disease, and as one from whom men hide their face: he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked (Elam), and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.'Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears;And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious (Damascus from the Sun rise)
Zecharia 9 The burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place; for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass. As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
Jeremiah 49 And I will set My throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD. But it shall come to pass in the end of days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam (Mede King, Cyrus, David), saith the LORD.
Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people; then whosoever heareth the sound of the horn, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head;
Psalm 89 Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, and saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. I have found David My servant; with My holy oil have I anointed him; With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.
Zecharia 8 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.' (Emmanuel 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth (Elam, Jacob, Servant), or in the height above.(Cyrus, David, Sheppard)' Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman (Unmarried woman, in fact a virgin one, a maiden according to Yeshua disciples) shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.)
Isaiah 45 Thus saith the LORD: The labour of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine; they shall go after thee, in chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee: Surely God is in thee (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom ( called by Mighty God or God with Us "Yeshua") ), and there is none else, there is no other God. Verily Thou art a God that hidest. Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me. Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else. By Myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from My mouth in righteousness, and shall not come back, that unto Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Only in the LORD, shall one say of Me, is victory and strength; even to Him shall men come in confusion, all they that were incensed against Him. Thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour. In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Ezekiel 37 Then He said unto me: 'Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them: O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.' Then said He unto me: 'Prophesy unto the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.' Then He said unto me: 'Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say: Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off. Therefore prophesy, and say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, O My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel And I will put My spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I will place you in your own land; and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken, and performed it, saith the LORD.'And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
Numbers 23 Behold, I am bidden to bless; and when He hath blessed, I cannot call it back. None hath beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath one seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shouting for the King is among them. God who brought them forth out of Egypt is for them like the lofty horns of the wild-ox.For there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel; now is it said of Jacob and of Israel: 'What hath God wrought!' Behold a people that riseth up as a lioness, and as a lion doth he lift himself up; he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
Isaiah 66:3-4 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he broke a dog's neck; he that offereth a meal-offering, as if he offered swine's blood; he that maketh a memorial-offering of frankincense, as if he blessed an idol; according as they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations; Even so I will choose their mockings, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear, but they did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Hark! an uproar from the city, Hark! it cometh from the temple, Hark! the LORD rendereth recompense to His enemies.
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child. Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD; Shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God.

Psalm7
O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me; Lest he tear my soul like a lion (Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'), rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness; Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth(Elam); yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah. Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Jacob as servant expose God justice Isaiah 57), and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins (Zecharia 6 even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory(Came framed as the Glory of God Isaiah 60 to the one who turn from transgression in Jacob), and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest before his throne (Jacob as servant and his sacrifice, no form Isaiah 59); and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.(King and priest in his throne, staff of Aaron)) Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110 A Psalm of David. The LORD saith unto my lord: 'Sit thou at My right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.' The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: The rod of Thy strength (rod of Aaron) the LORD will send out of Zion: 'Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.''Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek.' Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you (as Son); therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.') .). My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Isaias 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
Ezekiel 21 And thou, O wicked one (Psalm 7 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Zacariah 5 Curse)), that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; (Is53, zac13:7 su a migo, el pastor jacob)) num24:9 He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up?(zac13:7 Awake, O sword, against My shepherd (Jacob near God), and against the man that is near unto Me (Isaiah 50 He is near that justifieth me, Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Isaiah 41 But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend (<near to God Gen 15 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness.;), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones., jer 49 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make him run away from it, and whoso is chosen, him will I appoint over it; for who is like Me?(Ps17:15 I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.

He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old. Thy bow is made quite bare(is22 the shield too); sworn are the rods of the word. Selah. Thou dost cleave the earth with rivers.

Selah Is40 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.', 42 The LORD was pleased, for His righteousness' sake, to make the teaching great and glorious. 45 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.)) and who will appoint Me a time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before Me? Zac13:8-9 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will

But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.)
refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried; they shall call on My name, and I will answer them; I will say: 'It is My people', and they shall say: 'The LORD is my God.'Jeremiah 49 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that He hath taken against Edom; and His purposes, that He hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the least of the flock shall drag them away, surely their habitation shall be appalled at them.) Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee (Genesis 49:9 Judah is a lion's whelp; from the prey, my son, thou art gone up. He stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up?
Matthew 3 “Repent, for ethe kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Isaiah 55 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near;Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Psalm7 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready; He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp. Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Isaiah 60 According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay, fury to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies; to the islands He will repay recompense.
Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart (Isaiah 53 Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand:
Isaiah 44 Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant (Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob
(For thus saith the LORD: Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout at the head of the nations; announce ye, praise ye, and say: 'O LORD, save Thy people, The remnant of Israel.' They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off (Island will wait his law), and say: 'He that scattered Israel doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.' For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he. And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of the LORD, to the corn, and to the wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered garden, and they shall not pine any more at all. )
, saith the LORD.), and Israel, whom I have chosen; For I will pour water upon the thirsty land (Justice), and streams upon the dry ground; I will pour My spirit upon thy seed, and My blessing upon thine offspring;); in the end of days ye shall consider it.
Isaiah 59 And as for Me, this is My covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and My words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
Isaiah 44 And they shall spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses. One shall say: 'I am the LORD'S'; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel. Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God. And who, as I, can proclaim—let him declare it, and set it in order for Me—since I appointed the ancient people? And the things that are coming, and that shall come to pass, let them declare. Fear ye not, neither be afraid; have I not announced unto thee of old, and declared it? And ye are My witnesses. Is there a God beside Me? Yea, there is no Rock; I know not any. Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel
Jeremiah 30 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
Jeremiah 31 For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.
Isaiah 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.
Isaiah 48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the fountain of Judah; who swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
Joel 3 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood(Servant was crushed by transgression, like a river), which the breath of the LORD driveth (cause to disappear, dry).
Isaiah 44 That confirmeth the word of His servant (Isaiah 41 But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend Gen15 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness. ), and performeth the counsel of His messengers; that saith of Jerusalem: 'She shall be inhabited'; and of the cities of Judah: 'They shall be built, and I will raise up the waste places thereof'; That saith to the deep: 'Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers';
Jeremiah 31 Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say: 'He that scattered Israel (as servant) doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.' For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.
Isaiah 40 Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One (servant), and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Even as a shepherd that feedeth his flock, that gathereth the lambs in his arm, and carrieth them in his bosom, and gently leadeth those that give suck.
Ezekiel 37 And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, for ever; and David My servant shall be their prince for ever. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them” it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will establish them, and multiply them, and will set My sanctuary in the midst of them for ever. And the nations shall know that I am the LORD that sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever. ()'
Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins() and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes. And thou, O wicked one (Psalm 7 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked ), that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant(Jacob) shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.), have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
Micah 2 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will render them all as sheep in a fold; as a flock in the midst of their pasture; they shall make great noise by reason of the multitude of men.
Jeremiah 30 Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will turn the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling-places; and the city shall be builded upon her own mound, and the palace shall be inhabited upon its wonted place.
Ezekiel 34 therefore will I save My flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even My servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. And I the LORD will be their God, and My servant David prince among them; I the LORD have spoken.
And they shall know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are My people, saith the Lord GOD.
Micah 5 Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. Therefore will He give them up, until the time that she who travaileth hath brought forth (Psalm7 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Jeremiah 31 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together; a great company shall they return hither.); then the residue of his brethren shall return with the children of Israel.
Micah 5 And he shall stand, and shall feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide, for then shall he be great unto the ends of the earth. And this shall be peace: when the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight princes among men.
Micah 7 Tend Thy people with Thy staff, the flock of Thy heritage, that dwell solitarily, as a forest in the midst of the fruitful field; let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.'As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things.' Thou wilt show faithfulness to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, as Thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
Numbers 24 How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars (sons of the majestic cedar of Ezekiel) beside the waters; Water(Justice, Rightenous) shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters (isles); and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted (By offering himself (like Esther in sackcloth and repentance for Israel sins) and gird his loin low he is higher In Heaven(Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.)). He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee. The saying of him who heareth the words of God, and knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes: I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Jacob(Cyrus, David), and a scepter shall rise out of Israel(Sheppard's staff), and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth.
Isaiah 48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the fountain of Judah; who swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness. For My name's sake will I defer Mine anger, and for My praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. Behold, I have refined thee, but not as silver; I have tried thee in the furnace of affliction. I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for Mine own sake; and thy sins I will not remember. For Mine own sake, for Mine own sake, will I do it; for how should it be profaned? And My glory will I not give to another. Hearken unto Me, O Jacob, and Israel My called: I am He; I am the first, I also am the last. Yea, My hand hath laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand hath spread out the heavens; when I call unto them, they stand up together. Assemble yourselves, all ye, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? He whom the LORD loveth(Jacob his friend in Zacariah 13) shall perform His pleasure on Babylon, and show His arm (Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isaiah 53 'Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the LORD been revealed?) on the Chaldeans. I, even I, have spoken, yea, I have called him; I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. Come ye near unto Me, hear ye this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it was, there am I; and now the Lord GOD hath sent me, and His spirit(is57,61,mal3, is40 his glory). Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the LORD thy God, who teacheth thee for thy profit, who leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. Oh that thou wouldest hearken to My commandments! then would thy peace be as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea; And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant shall prosper (Jacob), he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
Micah 2 The breaker (sea breaker) is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them.
Isaiah 44 That saith of Cyrus (Meaning Sun, Star of Jacob, David, his scepter and Sheppard): 'He is My shepherd (God redeemer), and shall perform all My pleasure'; even saying of Jerusalem: 'She shall be built'; and to the temple: 'My foundation shall be laid.'
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious.
In those days, and at that time, will I cause a shoot of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name whereby she shall be called, the LORD is our righteousness. For thus saith the LORD: There shall not be cut off unto David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; neither shall there be cut off unto the priests the Levites a man before Me to offer burnt-offerings, and to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. (Jaco as servant sacrificing himself and returning as David in his throne) Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also My covenant be broken with David My servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. 'Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them(Become one as). then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David(as servant/sacrifice burnt and peace offerings with his life as priest. 2 Sammuel 6 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded (with justice) with a linen ephod (he behave like a priest after became king ). So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn(preach God words). And it was so, as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the LORD. And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said: 'How did the king of Israel get him honour to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!'And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry. And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight(to the ground, Sheol); and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.' Proverbs 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. Proverbs 21 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household (Blessing), and a portion to her maidens.) My servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.'
Psalm 74
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth(Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning (open eyes), He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward, Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.); and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth(Isaiah 7 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. (depth in Sheol and High as the heaven the Sun of righteousness)'
And he said: 'Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also?
Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. (God with Us, Cyrus)). Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me(Cyrus, Isaiah 60; 44-45).
Psalm 72 A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the king's son; That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy poor with justice.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant(Jacob) shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee”so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men” So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.), have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
Isaiah 14 The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of the rulers, For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent (redeem from sin Isaiah 6 Seraph). Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks (Isaiah 5:27 In its ranks, none is weary or stumbles,
They never sleep or slumber; The belts on their waists do not come loose,
Nor do the thongs of their sandals break.). What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.
Habbakuk 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith (friends of God).
Amos 9 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, that say: 'The evil shall not overtake nor confront us.' In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;
Isaiah 16 And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
Isaiah 60 Arise, shine (Cyrus, David), for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall throb and be enlarged (Tent); because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee. Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee. For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron; I will also make thy officers peace, and righteousness thy magistrates
Malachi 2 Yet ye say: 'Wherefore?' Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously, though she is thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And not one hath done so who had exuberance of spirit! For what seeketh the one? a seed given of God. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. For I hate putting away, saith the LORD, the God of Israel, and him that covereth his garment with violence, saith the LORD of hosts; therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say: 'Wherein have we wearied Him?' In that ye say: 'Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and He delighteth in them; or where is the God of justice?'.
Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts(redeemer). But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. For I the LORD change not; and ye, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. From the days of your fathers ye have turned aside from Mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto Me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye say: 'Wherein shall we return?' Will a man rob God? Yet ye rob Me. But ye say: 'Wherein have we robbed Thee?' In tithes and heave-offerings. Ye are cursed with the curse, yet ye rob Me, even this whole nation.(Jacob curse, zac5) Bring ye the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall be more than sufficiency. And I will rebuke the devourer for your good, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your land; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts Then shall ye again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth Him not.
Isaiah 60 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, the plane-tree and the larch together; to beautify the place of My sanctuary, and I will make the place of My feet glorious. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory.
Isaiah 57:10
בְּרֹב דַּרְכֵּךְ יָגַעַתְּ לֹא אָמַרְתְּ נוֹאָשׁ חַיַּת יָדֵךְ מָצָאת עַל־כֵּן לֹא חָלִֽית׃
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. And a man shall be as in a hiding-place(Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.) from the wind, and a covert from the tempest (Jeremiah 30 Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God); as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend. The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly. The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble
Isaiah 33 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might(My servant). The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'). But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand(Psalm18 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in Him I take refuge; my shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;(open to look on rightenous Zechariah 2 For thus saith the LORD of hosts who sent me after glory unto the nations which spoiled you: 'Surely, he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. Zechariah 4 his eyes in all the earth) Zechariah 5And I said: 'What is it?' And he said: 'This is the measure that goeth forth.' He said moreover: 'This is their (iniquity, blindeness, darkness)eye in all the land. 2 Sam 16 It may be that the LORD will look on mine eye, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing of me this day.' Hos 10 Surely now shall they say: 'We have no king; for we feared not the LORD; and the king, what can he do for us?' The inhabitants of Samaria shall be in dread for the calves of Beth-aven; for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof shall tremble for it, for its glory, because it is departed from it. It also shall be carried unto Assyria, for a present to King Contentious; Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel. As for Samaria, her king is cut off, as foam upon the water (winepress Isaiah 63, 27, 59,28 ). When it is My desire, I will chastise them; and the peoples shall be gathered against them, when they are yoked to their two rings And Ephraim is a heifer well broken, that loveth to thresh, and I have passed over upon her fair neck; I will make Ephraim to ride, Judah shall plow, Jacob shall break his clods. Sow to yourselves according to righteousness, reap according to mercy,(threshfloor Isaiah 28) break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, till He come and cause righteousness to rain upon you(Isaiah 28). Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity, ye have eaten the fruit of lies; for thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men. Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy hosts, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle; the mother was dashed in pieces with her children(Psalm137 How shall we sing the LORD'S song in a foreign land? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I remember thee not; if I set not Jerusalem above my chiefest joy. Remember, O LORD, against the children of Edom the day of Jerusalem; who said: 'Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.' O daughter of Babylon, that art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that repayeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the rock.). So hath Beth-el done unto you because of your great wickedness; at daybreak is the king of Israel utterly cut off.) He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. The cords of Death compassed me, and the floods of Belial assailed me. The cords of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of Death confronted me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God; out of His temple He heard my voice, and my cry came before Him unto His ears (Isaiah 50 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.). He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. He made darkness His hiding-place, His pavilion round about Him; darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. He brought me forth also into a large place (Deu 33:20 And of Gad he said: Blessed be He that enlargeth Gad; he dwelleth as a lioness, and teareth the arm, yea, the crown of the head. (Isaiah54 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations, spare not; lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.,)(Isaiah33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.); He delivered me, because He delighted in me. (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God)And I was single-hearted with Him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity. The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness(Salvation Psalm 68 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captivity captive; Thou hast received gifts among men, yea, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.); according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me. (Is43:4)).
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
מִי בָכֶם יְרֵא יְהֹוָה שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל עַבְדּוֹ אֲשֶׁר ׀ הָלַךְ חֲשֵׁכִים וְאֵין נֹגַהּ לוֹ יִבְטַח בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה וְיִשָּׁעֵן בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃
Isaiah 33:16 He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure.

Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.
וְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲוֺנֹתֵינוּ מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא־לָֽנוּ׃
Malachi 3:20 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
וְזָרְחָה לָכֶם יִרְאֵי שְׁמִי שֶׁמֶשׁ צְדָקָה וּמַרְפֵּא בִּכְנָפֶיהָ וִיצָאתֶם וּפִשְׁתֶּם כְּעֶגְלֵי מַרְבֵּֽק׃
Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not (Isaiah 57 I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also” they shall not profit thee.)? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live (); and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.(Isaiah 53 By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant (Jacob), who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear (Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.(Malachi 3 healing in its wings)). Therefore will I divide him a portion among the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the mighty; because he bared his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.) Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee.)
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.

Isaiah 55:6-7 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.

Isaiah 59:20 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob (Isaiah 14 For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob (Hoshea 6 For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings.), and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land; and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob. And the peoples shall take them, and bring them to their place; and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and for handmaids; and they shall take them captive, whose captives they were (Psalm18,68); and they shall rule over their oppressors. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve (Isaiah 40), And thou saidst in thy heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne, and I will sit upon the mount of meeting, in the uttermost parts of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.' Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, thou hast slain thy people; the seed of evil-doers shall not be named for ever.
Isaiah 14 What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.

Isaiah 57:11-19 And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also—they shall not profit thee When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain. And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit that enwrappeth itself is from Me, and the souls which I have made. For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth and smote him, I hid Me and was wroth; and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners. Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.

Proverb 21 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, and a present in the bosom strong wrath. To do justly is joy to the righteous, but ruin(terror) to the workers of iniquity (the plumbline, the stone Isaiah 65 Behold, it is written before Me; I will not keep silence, except I have requited, yea, I will requite into their bosom, Your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, that have offered upon the mountains, and blasphemed Me upon the hills; therefore will I first measure their wage into their bosom.) The wicked is a ransom for the righteous; and the faithless cometh in the stead of the upright. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, prosperity, and honour. A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and bringeth down the stronghold wherein it trusteth. Proverb 17 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom, to pervert the ways of justice. To punish also the righteous is not good, nor to strike the noble for their uprightness. He that spareth his words hath knowledge; and he that husbandeth his spirit is a man of discernment. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise; and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed as a man of understanding. (Isaiah 50, 53) I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delighted not.
Isaiah 14 For the Lord will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel, and will set them in their own land, and sojourners will join them and will attach themselves to the house of Jacob. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve. that thou shalt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say: How hath the oppressor ceased! the exactress of gold ceased!
Proverbs 31 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household, and a portion to her maidens. She considereth a field, and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. She girdeth her loins with strength, and maketh strong her arms. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Psalm 68
They see Thy goings, O God, even the goings of my God, my King, in holiness.
Habakkuk 3
He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old.
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins.
Nahum 2:1 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that announceth peace! Keep thy feasts, O Judah, perform thy vows; for the wicked one shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off. A maul is come up before thy face; guard the defences, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily!— For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.—
Psalm 68 That thy foot may wade through blood, that the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.'
deu 21 then it shall be, in the day that he causeth his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved the first-born before the son of the hated, who is the first-born;but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath; for he is the first-fruits of his strength, the right of the first-born is his.
Job11
It is high as heaven; what canst thou do? Deeper than the nether-world; what canst thou know? The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea. If thou set thy heart aright, and stretch out thy hands toward Him— For He knoweth base men; and when He seeth iniquity, will He not then consider it? If iniquity be in thy hand, put it far away, and let not unrighteousness dwell in thy tents— Surely then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear; For thou shalt forget thy misery; thou shalt remember it as waters that are passed away; And thy life shall be clearer than the noonday; though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning.
Psalm 149
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand; To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements upon the peoples; To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.
2sam 16And again, whom should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.'
Deut 15 If thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, he shall serve thee six years; and in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee. And when thou lettest him go free from thee, thou shalt not let him go empty; And it shall be, if he say unto thee: 'I will not go out from thee'; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he fareth well with thee; then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust it through his ear and into the door, and he shall be thy bondman for ever. And also unto thy bondwoman thou shalt do likewise. It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou lettest him go free from thee; for to the double of the hire of a hireling hath he served thee six years; and the LORD thy God will bless thee in all that thou doest.
Exodus 22 For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, whereof one saith: 'This is it,' the cause of both parties shall come before God; he whom God shall condemn shall pay double unto his neighbour.
Gen 43 And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
Zechariah 9 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee. For I bend Judah for Me, I fill the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Javan, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man
Isaiah 61 But ye shall be named the priests of the LORD, men shall call you the ministers of our God; ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their splendour shall ye revel. For your shame which was double, and for that they rejoiced: 'Confusion is their portion'; therefore in their land they shall possess double, everlasting joy shall be unto them. For I the LORD love justice, I hate robbery with iniquity; and I will give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed
(Isaiah 60 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. The smallest shall become a thousand, and the least a mighty nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time.) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of victory, as a bridegroom putteth on a priestly diadem, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her growth, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause victory and glory to spring forth before all the nations.
Isaiah 49 And He said unto me: 'Thou art My servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.'.
Isaiah 60 Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee.
Isaiah 61 Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.
Isaiah 44 Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel. Then Moses said unto Aaron: 'This is it that the LORD spoke, saying:
Leviticus 10 Through them that are nigh unto Me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.' And Aaron held his peace.
Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.
Isaiah 32 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
Matthew 5 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they shall be satiated!
Isaiah 41 The poor and needy seek water and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst; I the LORD will answer them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I will open rivers on the high hills, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia-tree, and the myrtle, and the oil-tree; I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together; That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. I have roused up one from the north, and he is come, from the rising of the sun (Isaiah 42 Behold My servant, whom I uphold; Mine elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon him, he shall make the right to go forth to the nations. A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth. He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching. Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness (Jeremiah 30:21 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall renew the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations; I am the LORD, that is My name; and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Malachi 3 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts) one that calleth upon My name; and he shall come upon rulers as upon mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay. (is60-61).
Isaiah 48 And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 43 I bring near My righteousness, it shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not tarry; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel My glory.
Isaiah 59 And He saw that there was no man, and was astonished that there was no intercessor; therefore His own arm brought salvation unto Him; and His righteousness, it sustained Him;
Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek. ').
Isaiah 66:1-2 Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me? And where is the place that may be My resting-place?
For all these things hath My hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith the LORD; but on this man will I look, even on him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word.
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places(Isaiah 33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. But there the LORD will be with us in majesty, in a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. Isaiah 52 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Ezekiel 44 in that ye have brought in aliens, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to profane it, even My house, when ye offer My bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken My covenant, to add unto all your abominations. Thus saith the Lord GOD: No alien, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into My sanctuary, even any alien that is among the children of Israel.);
Ezekiel 1 And above the expanse over their heads there was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like sapphire (Isaiah 54 ); and seated above the likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance.
And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
Ezekiel 8 Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins and downward, fire; and from his loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of electrum.
Daniel 10 I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz; his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he went in in my sight. Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court. And the glory of the LORD mounted up from the cherub to the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory. And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when He speaketh. And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel. And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
Isaiah 6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up (Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant)), and His train filled the temple. Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory. And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. Zecharia 14 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel; yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake (Servant become king Proverb 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;) in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with Thee.
Isaiah 2 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. For the LORD of hosts hath a day upon all that is proud and lofty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places;
Daniel 7 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of days, and he was brought near (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. ) before Him.
Ezekiel 43:6
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me(one who tremble at God words and do Justice).

Isaiah 29 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale; When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.

Isaiah 33:14-17
The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?' He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil; He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.

He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh truth in his heart;
That hath no slander upon his tongue, nor doeth evil to his fellow, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour;
In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honoureth them that fear the LORD; he that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;
He that putteth not out his money on interest, nor taketh a bribe against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

Now these are the last words of David: The saying of David the son of Jesse, and the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel:The spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and His word was upon my tongue.The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.' For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow?

Numbers 24 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at the other times, to meet with enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness. And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel dwelling tribe by tribe; and the spirit of God came upon him. And he took up his parable, and said: The saying of Balaam the son of Beor, and the saying of the man whose eye is opened; The saying of him who heareth the words of God, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes: How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars beside the waters; Water shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters; and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. God who brought him forth out of Egypt is for him like the lofty horns of the wild-ox; he shall eat up the nations that are his adversaries, and shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee.
וַיִּשָּׂא בִלְעָם אֶת־עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל שֹׁכֵן לִשְׁבָטָיו וַתְּהִי עָלָיו רוּחַ אֱלֹהִֽים׃

Hoshea 11
When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son. And I, I taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I surrender thee, Israel? How shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboim? My heart is turned within Me, My compassions are kindled together. I will not execute the fierceness of Mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, the Holy One in the midst of thee; and I will not come in fury. They shall walk after the LORD, who shall roar like a lion; for He shall roar, and the children shall come trembling from the west.
Isaiah 63 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
Psalm 8 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him? Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. (Psalm50 for God, He is judge (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom (his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor Mighty God, Everlasting Father (Isaiah 22 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. Jeremiah 30 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. Zechariah 12 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being (likeness Genesis 1:26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.' Psalm 17 As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.), as the angel of the LORD (as a father) before them.), Prince of Peace.); Isaiah 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.). Selah Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Zechariah 12
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.
In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
Joel 3
And the LORD shall roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the LORD will be a refuge unto His people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel. So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion My holy mountain; then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
Zechariah 13
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.' Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones (by the sword).
Isaiah21 A grievous vision is declared unto me: 'The treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam! besiege, O Media! All the sighing thereof have I made to cease.'Therefore are my loins filled with convulsion; pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; I am bent so that I cannot hear; I am affrighted so that I cannot see. My heart is bewildered, terror hath overwhelmed me; the twilight that I longed for hath been turned for me into trembling. And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'
And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
Jeremiah 49 And I will bring against Elam the four winds (the sword) from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the dispersed of Elam shall not come. And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them;
Psalm 55 My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me(sword).
Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest.
Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah
I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.'
For it was not an enemy that taunted me, then I could have borne it; neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, then I would have hid myself from him. (he took him and save him)
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked.
Psalm 139 Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world (Elam), behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me. And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night'; Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light. For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My frame(Glory, Cyrus, David) was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance (Isaiah 50 I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. Isaiah 53 no form nor comeliness, Isaiah 52 According as many were appalled at thee” so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men, Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; Isaiah 42 Who is blind, but My servant? Or deaf, as My messenger that I send? Who is blind as he that is wholehearted, and blind as the LORD'S servant?), and in Thy book they were all written”even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God”depart from me therefore, ye men of blood; Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; And I have not learned wisdom, that I should have the knowledge of the Holy One. Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest? Every word of God is tried(Jeremiah 17); He is a shield unto them that take refuge in Him. Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. Two things have I asked of Thee; deny me them not before I die: Remove far from me falsehood and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with mine allotted bread; Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God. Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;
Psalms 2 The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His anointed: 'Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.' He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision. 'Truly it is I that have established My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.' I will tell of the decree: the LORD said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee. Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.' Now therefore, O ye kings, be wise; be admonished, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Do homage in purity (Kiss the Son נַשְּׁקוּ־בַר), lest He be angry, and ye perish in the way, when suddenly His wrath is kindled. Happy are all they that take refuge in Him.
Ezekiel 32 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude; her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in the midst of them that are slain. For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.'
Ezekiel21
and say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth My sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their(By the sword Zhecaria 13:7) eyes. And thou, O wicked one, that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; thus saith the Lord GOD: The mitre shall be removed, and the crown taken off; this shall be no more the same: that which is low shall be exalted, and that which is high abased. A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, will I make it; this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
Ezekiel 17
Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent;
in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness (Isaiah 38) the girdle of his reins.
Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD.For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward. Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. He was despised, and forsaken of men, a man of pains, and acquainted with disease, and as one from whom men hide their face: he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked (Elam), and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.'Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears;And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious (Damascus from the Sun rise)
Zecharia 9 The burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place; for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass. As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
Jeremiah 49 And I will set My throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD. But it shall come to pass in the end of days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam (Mede King, Cyrus, David), saith the LORD.
Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people; then whosoever heareth the sound of the horn, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head;
Psalm 89 Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, and saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. I have found David My servant; with My holy oil have I anointed him; With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.
Zecharia 8 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.' (Emmanuel 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth (Elam, Jacob, Servant), or in the height above.(Cyrus, David, Sheppard)' Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman (Unmarried woman, in fact a virgin one, a maiden according to Yeshua disciples) shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.)
Isaiah 45 Thus saith the LORD: The labour of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine; they shall go after thee, in chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee: Surely God is in thee (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom ( called by Mighty God or God with Us "Yeshua") ), and there is none else, there is no other God. Verily Thou art a God that hidest. Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me. Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else. By Myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from My mouth in righteousness, and shall not come back, that unto Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Only in the LORD, shall one say of Me, is victory and strength; even to Him shall men come in confusion, all they that were incensed against Him. Thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour. In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Ezekiel 37 Then He said unto me: 'Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them: O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.' Then said He unto me: 'Prophesy unto the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.' Then He said unto me: 'Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say: Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off. Therefore prophesy, and say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, O My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel And I will put My spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I will place you in your own land; and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken, and performed it, saith the LORD.'And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
Numbers 23 Behold, I am bidden to bless; and when He hath blessed, I cannot call it back. None hath beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath one seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shouting for the King is among them. God who brought them forth out of Egypt is for them like the lofty horns of the wild-ox.For there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel; now is it said of Jacob and of Israel: 'What hath God wrought!' Behold a people that riseth up as a lioness, and as a lion doth he lift himself up; he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
Isaiah 66:3-4 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he broke a dog's neck; he that offereth a meal-offering, as if he offered swine's blood; he that maketh a memorial-offering of frankincense, as if he blessed an idol; according as they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations; Even so I will choose their mockings, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear, but they did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Hark! an uproar from the city, Hark! it cometh from the temple, Hark! the LORD rendereth recompense to His enemies.
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child. Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD; Shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God.

Psalm7
O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me; Lest he tear my soul like a lion (Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'), rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness; Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth(Elam); yea, let him lay my glory in the dust (
Nahum 2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches.—
Isaiah 19 And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof; and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits. and I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcasses will I give to be food for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; Isaiah 24 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. Jeremiah 51 And I will send unto Babylon strangers, that shall fan her, and they shall empty her land; for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
). Selah. Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Jacob as servant expose God justice Isaiah 57), and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins (Zecharia 6 even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory(Came framed as the Glory of God Isaiah 60 to the one who turn from transgression in Jacob), and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest before his throne (Jacob as servant and his sacrifice, no form Isaiah 59); and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.(King and priest in his throne, staff of Aaron)) Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy.

Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you (as Son); therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.') .). My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Isaias 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.

Psalm7 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready; He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp.

Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God.

And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him.

Micah 5 Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days.

Micah 7 Tend Thy people with Thy staff, the flock of Thy heritage, that dwell solitarily, as a forest in the midst of the fruitful field; let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.'As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things.'

Numbers 24 How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars (sons of the majestic cedar of Ezekiel) beside the waters; Water(Justice, Rightenous) shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters (isles); and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted (By offering himself (like Esther & Mardocai in sackcloth and repentance for Israel sins) and the gird of his loin low he is higher In Heaven(Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.)).

The saying of him who heareth the words of God, and knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes (Servant Jacob): I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Jacob(Cyrus, David), and a scepter shall rise out of Israel(Sheppard's staff), and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth.
Isaiah 48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the fountain of Judah; who swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness. For My name's sake will I defer Mine anger, and for My praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. Behold, I have refined thee, but not as silver; I have tried thee in the furnace of affliction. I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for Mine own sake; and thy sins I will not remember. For Mine own sake, for Mine own sake, will I do it; for how should it be profaned? And My glory will I not give to another. Hearken unto Me, O Jacob, and Israel My called: I am He; I am the first, I also am the last. Yea, My hand hath laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand hath spread out the heavens; when I call unto them, they stand up together. Assemble yourselves, all ye, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? He whom the LORD loveth(Jacob his friend in Zacariah 13) shall perform His pleasure on Babylon, and show His arm (Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isaiah 53 'Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the LORD been revealed?) on the Chaldeans. I, even I, have spoken, yea, I have called him; I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. Come ye near unto Me, hear ye this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it was, there am I; and now the Lord GOD hath sent me, and His spirit(is57,61,mal3, is40 his glory). Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the LORD thy God, who teacheth thee for thy profit, who leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. Oh that thou wouldest hearken to My commandments! then would thy peace be as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea; And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant shall prosper (Jacob), he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
Micah 2 The breaker (sea breaker) is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them.
Isaiah 44 That saith of Cyrus (Meaning Sun, Star of Jacob, David, his scepter and Sheppard): 'He is My shepherd (God redeemer), and shall perform all My pleasure'; even saying of Jerusalem: 'She shall be built'; and to the temple: 'My foundation shall be laid.'
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious.
In those days, and at that time, will I cause a shoot of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name whereby she shall be called, the LORD is our righteousness. For thus saith the LORD: There shall not be cut off unto David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; neither shall there be cut off unto the priests the Levites a man before Me to offer burnt-offerings, and to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. (Jaco as servant sacrificing himself and returning as David in his throne) Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also My covenant be broken with David My servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. 'Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them(Become one as). then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David(as servant/sacrifice burnt and peace offerings with his life as priest. 2 Sammuel 6 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded (with justice) with a linen ephod (he behave like a priest after became king ). So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn(preach God words). And it was so, as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the LORD. And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said: 'How did the king of Israel get him honour to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!'And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry. And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight(to the ground, Sheol); and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.' Proverbs 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. Proverbs 21 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household (Blessing), and a portion to her maidens.) My servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.'
Psalm 74
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth(Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning (open eyes), He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward, Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.); and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth(Isaiah 7 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. (depth in Sheol and High as the heaven the Sun of righteousness)'
And he said: 'Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also?
Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. (God with Us, Cyrus)). Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me(Cyrus, Isaiah 60; 44-45).
Psalm 72 A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the king's son; That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy poor with justice.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.

Isaiah 14 The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of the rulers, For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent (redeem from sin Isaiah 6 Seraph). Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks (Isaiah 5:27 In its ranks, none is weary or stumbles,
They never sleep or slumber; The belts on their waists do not come loose,
Nor do the thongs of their sandals break.). What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.
Habbakuk 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith (friends of God).
Amos 9 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, that say: 'The evil shall not overtake nor confront us.' In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;
Isaiah 16 And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
Isaiah 60 Arise, shine (Cyrus, David), for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall throb and be enlarged (Tent); because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee. Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee. For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron; I will also make thy officers peace, and righteousness thy magistrates
Malachi 2 Yet ye say: 'Wherefore?' Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously, though she is thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And not one hath done so who had exuberance of spirit! For what seeketh the one? a seed given of God. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. For I hate putting away, saith the LORD, the God of Israel, and him that covereth his garment with violence, saith the LORD of hosts; therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say: 'Wherein have we wearied Him?' In that ye say: 'Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and He delighteth in them; or where is the God of justice?'.
Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts(redeemer). But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. For I the LORD change not; and ye, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. From the days of your fathers ye have turned aside from Mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto Me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye say: 'Wherein shall we return?' Will a man rob God? Yet ye rob Me. But ye say: 'Wherein have we robbed Thee?' In tithes and heave-offerings. Ye are cursed with the curse, yet ye rob Me, even this whole nation.(Jacob curse, zac5) Bring ye the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall be more than sufficiency. And I will rebuke the devourer for your good, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your land; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts Then shall ye again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth Him not.
Isaiah 60 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, the plane-tree and the larch together; to beautify the place of My sanctuary, and I will make the place of My feet glorious. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory.
(of Justice Isaiah 57:10 Thou wast wearied with the length of thy way; yet saidst thou not: 'There is no hope'; thou didst find a renewal of thy strength, therefore thou wast not affected. And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also they shall not profit thee.
Isaiah 57:10
בְּרֹב דַּרְכֵּךְ יָגַעַתְּ לֹא אָמַרְתְּ נוֹאָשׁ חַיַּת יָדֵךְ מָצָאת עַל־כֵּן לֹא חָלִֽית׃
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. And a man shall be as in a hiding-place(Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.) from the wind, and a covert from the tempest (Jeremiah 30 Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God); as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend. The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly. The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble
Isaiah 33 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might(My servant). The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'). But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand(Psalm18 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in Him I take refuge; my shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower (Isaiah 33 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;) He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. The cords of Death compassed me, and the floods of Belial assailed me. The cords of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of Death confronted me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God; out of His temple He heard my voice, and my cry came before Him unto His ears (Isaiah 50 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.). He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. He made darkness His hiding-place, His pavilion round about Him; darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. He brought me forth also into a large place (Deu 33:20 And of Gad he said: Blessed be He that enlargeth Gad; he dwelleth as a lioness, and teareth the arm, yea, the crown of the head. (Isaiah54 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations, spare not; lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.,)(Isaiah33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.); He delivered me, because He delighted in me. (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God)And I was single-hearted with Him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity. The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness(Salvation Psalm 68 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captivity captive; Thou hast received gifts among men, yea, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.); according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me. (Is43:4)).
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
מִי בָכֶם יְרֵא יְהֹוָה שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל עַבְדּוֹ אֲשֶׁר ׀ הָלַךְ חֲשֵׁכִים וְאֵין נֹגַהּ לוֹ יִבְטַח בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה וְיִשָּׁעֵן בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃
Isaiah 33:16 He shall dwell on high (To pour down the recompense of his galardon); his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure.
הוּא מְרוֹמִים יִשְׁכֹּן מְצָדוֹת סְלָעִים מִשְׂגַּבּוֹ לַחְמוֹ נִתָּן מֵימָיו נֶאֱמָנִֽים׃
Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
מֵעֲמַל נַפְשׁוֹ יִרְאֶה יִשְׂבָּע בְּדַעְתּוֹ יַצְדִּיק צַדִּיק עַבְדִּי לָֽרַבִּים וַעֲוֺנֹתָם הוּא יִסְבֹּֽל׃
Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.
וְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲוֺנֹתֵינוּ מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא־לָֽנוּ׃
Malachi 3:20 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.
וְזָרְחָה לָכֶם יִרְאֵי שְׁמִי שֶׁמֶשׁ צְדָקָה וּמַרְפֵּא בִּכְנָפֶיהָ וִיצָאתֶם וּפִשְׁתֶּם כְּעֶגְלֵי מַרְבֵּֽק׃
Isaiah 55 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye for water, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your gain for that which satisfieth not (Isaiah 57 I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also” they shall not profit thee.)? Hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto Me; hear, and your soul shall live (); and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.(Isaiah 53 By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.' Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant (Jacob), who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear (Isaiah 53 But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed.(Malachi 3 healing in its wings)). Therefore will I divide him a portion among the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the mighty; because he bared his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.) Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee shall run unto thee; because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for He hath glorified thee.)
Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
מִי בָכֶם יְרֵא יְהֹוָה שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל עַבְדּוֹ אֲשֶׁר ׀ הָלַךְ חֲשֵׁכִים וְאֵין נֹגַהּ לוֹ יִבְטַח בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה וְיִשָּׁעֵן בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃
Matthew 3:2 “Repent, for ethe kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
”חיזרו בתשובה!“קרא יוחנן.”שובו אל ה׳ כי מלכות השמים קרובה!“
Isaiah 55:6-7 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
דִּרְשׁוּ יְהֹוָה בְּהִמָּֽצְאוֹ קְרָאֻהוּ בִּֽהְיוֹתוֹ קָרֽוֹב׃
יַעֲזֹב רָשָׁע דַּרְכּוֹ וְאִישׁ אָוֶן מַחְשְׁבֹתָיו וְיָשֹׁב אֶל־יְהֹוָה וִֽירַחֲמֵהוּ וְאֶל־אֱלֹהֵינוּ כִּֽי־יַרְבֶּה לִסְלֽוֹחַ׃
Isaiah 59:20 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
וּבָא לְצִיּוֹן גּוֹאֵל וּלְשָׁבֵי פֶשַׁע בְּיַֽעֲקֹב נְאֻם יְהֹוָֽה׃
Isaiah 57:11-19 And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou wouldest fail? And as for Me, thou hast not remembered Me, nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held My peace even of long time? Therefore thou fearest Me not. I will declare thy righteousness; thy works also—they shall not profit thee When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain. And He will say: cast ye up, cast ye up, clear the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. For thus saith the High and Lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit that enwrappeth itself is from Me, and the souls which I have made. For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth and smote him, I hid Me and was wroth; and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will lead him also, and requite with comforts him and his mourners. Peace, peace, to him that is far off and to him that is near, saith the LORD that createth the fruit of the lips; and I will heal him.

Isaiah 14 For the Lord will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel, and will set them in their own land, and sojourners will join them and will attach themselves to the house of Jacob. And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve. that thou shalt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say: How hath the oppressor ceased! the exactress of gold ceased!
Isaiah 40 Comfort ye, comfort ye My people, saith your God. Bid Jerusalem take heart, and proclaim unto her, that her time of service is accomplished, that her guilt is paid off; that she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins.
Zechariah 9 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee. For I bend Judah for Me, I fill the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Javan, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man
Isaiah 61 But ye shall be named the priests of the LORD, men shall call you the ministers of our God; ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their splendour shall ye revel. For your shame which was double, and for that they rejoiced: 'Confusion is their portion'; therefore in their land they shall possess double, everlasting joy shall be unto them. For I the LORD love justice, I hate robbery with iniquity; and I will give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed (Isaiah 60 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. The smallest shall become a thousand, and the least a mighty nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time.) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of victory, as a bridegroom putteth on a priestly diadem, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her growth, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause victory and glory to spring forth before all the nations.
Isaiah 49 And He said unto me: 'Thou art My servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.'.
Isaiah 60 Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee.
Isaiah 61 Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory. To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory.
Isaiah 44 Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel. Then Moses said unto Aaron: 'This is it that the LORD spoke, saying:
Leviticus 10 Through them that are nigh unto Me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.' And Aaron held his peace.
Isaiah 57 When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall bear them off; but he that taketh refuge in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain.
Isaiah 32 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
Matthew 5 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they shall be satiated!
Isaiah 41 The poor and needy seek water and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst; I the LORD will answer them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I will open rivers on the high hills, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia-tree, and the myrtle, and the oil-tree; I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together; That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. I have roused up one from the north, and he is come, from the rising of the sun (Isaiah 42 Behold My servant, whom I uphold; Mine elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon him, he shall make the right to go forth to the nations. A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth. He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching. Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness (Jeremiah 30:21 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 61 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to bring good tidings unto the humble; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the eyes to them that are bound; To proclaim the year of the LORD'S good pleasure, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the mantle of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, wherein He might glory And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall renew the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations; I am the LORD, that is My name; and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Malachi 3 But unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts) one that calleth upon My name; and he shall come upon rulers as upon mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay. (is60-61).
Isaiah 48 And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 43 I bring near My righteousness, it shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not tarry; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel My glory.
Isaiah 59 And He saw that there was no man, and was astonished that there was no intercessor; therefore His own arm brought salvation unto Him; and His righteousness, it sustained Him;
Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek. ').
Isaiah 66:1-2 Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me? And where is the place that may be My resting-place?
For all these things hath My hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith the LORD; but on this man will I look, even on him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word.
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places(Isaiah 33 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. But there the LORD will be with us in majesty, in a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. Isaiah 52 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Ezekiel 44 in that ye have brought in aliens, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to profane it, even My house, when ye offer My bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken My covenant, to add unto all your abominations. Thus saith the Lord GOD: No alien, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into My sanctuary, even any alien that is among the children of Israel.);
Ezekiel 1 And above the expanse over their heads there was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like sapphire (Isaiah 54 ); and seated above the likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance.
And I saw as the colour of electrum, as the appearance of fire round about enclosing it, from the appearance of his loins and upward; and from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
Ezekiel 8 Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins and downward, fire; and from his loins and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of electrum.
Daniel 10 I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz; his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as torches of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. And He spoke unto the man clothed in linen, and said: 'Go in between the wheelwork, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and dash them against the city.' And he went in in my sight. Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court. And the glory of the LORD mounted up from the cherub to the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory. And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of God Almighty when He speaketh. And it came to pass, when He commanded the man clothed in linen, saying: 'Take fire from between the wheelwork, from between the cherubim', that he went in, and stood beside a wheel. And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
Isaiah 6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up (Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant)), and His train filled the temple. Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory. And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke. Zecharia 14 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel; yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake (Servant become king Proverb 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;) in the days of Uzziah king of Judah; and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with Thee.
Isaiah 2 The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. For the LORD of hosts hath a day upon all that is proud and lofty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
Ezekiel 43
And a spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne ((Ezekiel 1 likeness of a throne was a likeness with a human appearance (The Servant))), and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places;
Daniel 7 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the Ancient of days, and he was brought near (Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. ) before Him.
Ezekiel 43:6
And I heard one speaking unto me out of the house; and a man stood by me(one who tremble at God words and do Justice).

Isaiah 29 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale; When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel. They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.

Isaiah 33:14-17
The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?' He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil; He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.

In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honoureth them that fear the LORD; he that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;
He that putteth not out his money on interest, nor taketh a bribe against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

And He said unto me: 'Son of man, this is the place of My throne (everlasting burning, high), and the place of the soles of My feet (My mighty one^), where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more defile My holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the carcasses of their kings in their high places;

2 Samuel 23
Now these are the last words of David: The saying of David the son of Jesse, and the saying of the man raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel:The spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and His word was upon my tongue.The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: 'Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.' For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow?

Numbers 24 And when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he went not, as at the other times, to meet with enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness. And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel dwelling tribe by tribe; and the spirit of God came upon him. And he took up his parable, and said: The saying of Balaam the son of Beor, and the saying of the man whose eye is opened; The saying of him who heareth the words of God, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes: How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars beside the waters; Water shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters; and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. God who brought him forth out of Egypt is for him like the lofty horns of the wild-ox; he shall eat up the nations that are his adversaries, and shall break their bones in pieces, and pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee.

Hoshea 11
When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son. And I, I taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I surrender thee, Israel? How shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboim? My heart is turned within Me, My compassions are kindled together. I will not execute the fierceness of Mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, the Holy One in the midst of thee; and I will not come in fury. They shall walk after the LORD, who shall roar like a lion; for He shall roar, and the children shall come trembling from the west.
Isaiah 63 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
Psalm 8 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him? Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. (Psalm50 for God, He is judge (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom (his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor Mighty God, Everlasting Father (Isaiah 22 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. Jeremiah 30 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born. Zechariah 12 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being (likeness Genesis 1:26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.' Psalm 17 As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.), as the angel of the LORD (as a father) before them.), Prince of Peace.); Isaiah 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.). Selah Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
Zechariah 12
In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.
In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
Joel 3
And the LORD shall roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the LORD will be a refuge unto His people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel. So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God, dwelling in Zion My holy mountain; then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
Zechariah 13
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling. And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.' Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones (by the sword).
Isaiah21 A grievous vision is declared unto me: 'The treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam! besiege, O Media! All the sighing thereof have I made to cease.'Therefore are my loins filled with convulsion; pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; I am bent so that I cannot hear; I am affrighted so that I cannot see. My heart is bewildered, terror hath overwhelmed me; the twilight that I longed for hath been turned for me into trembling. And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'
And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.' For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
Jeremiah 49 And I will bring against Elam the four winds (the sword) from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the dispersed of Elam shall not come. And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, even My fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them;
Psalm 55 My heart doth writhe within me; and the terrors of death are fallen upon me(sword).
Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
And I said: 'Oh that I had wings like a dove! then would I fly away, and be at rest.
Lo, then would I wander far off, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah
I would haste me to a shelter from the stormy wind and tempest.'
For it was not an enemy that taunted me, then I could have borne it; neither was it mine adversary that did magnify himself against me, then I would have hid myself from him. (he took him and save him)
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God. Behold, a storm of the LORD is gone forth in fury, a sweeping storm; it shall whirl upon the head of the wicked.
Psalm 139 Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world (Elam), behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me. And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night'; Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light. For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My frame(Glory, Cyrus, David) was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance (Isaiah 50 I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. Isaiah 53 no form nor comeliness, Isaiah 52 According as many were appalled at thee” so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men, Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; Isaiah 42 Who is blind, but My servant? Or deaf, as My messenger that I send? Who is blind as he that is wholehearted, and blind as the LORD'S servant?), and in Thy book they were all written”even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God”depart from me therefore, ye men of blood; Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee? I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies. Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Proverbs 30 Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man; And I have not learned wisdom, that I should have the knowledge of the Holy One. Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest? Every word of God is tried(Jeremiah 17); He is a shield unto them that take refuge in Him. Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. Two things have I asked of Thee; deny me them not before I die: Remove far from me falsehood and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with mine allotted bread; Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God. Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;
Psalms 2 The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His anointed: 'Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.' He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision. 'Truly it is I that have established My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.' I will tell of the decree: the LORD said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee. Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.' Now therefore, O ye kings, be wise; be admonished, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Do homage in purity (Kiss the Son נַשְּׁקוּ־בַר), lest He be angry, and ye perish in the way, when suddenly His wrath is kindled. Happy are all they that take refuge in Him.
Ezekiel 32 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude; her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in the midst of them that are slain. For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.'
Ezekiel21
and say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth My sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their(By the sword Zhecaria 13:7) eyes. And thou, O wicked one, that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; thus saith the Lord GOD: The mitre shall be removed, and the crown taken off; this shall be no more the same: that which is low shall be exalted, and that which is high abased. A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, will I make it; this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
Ezekiel 17
Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent;
in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of the LORD.For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rearward. Behold, My servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.
Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. He was despised, and forsaken of men, a man of pains, and acquainted with disease, and as one from whom men hide their face: he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked (Elam), and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.'Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand: Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears;And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious (Damascus from the Sun rise)
Zecharia 9 The burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place; for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass. As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
Jeremiah 49 And I will set My throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD. But it shall come to pass in the end of days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam (Mede King, Cyrus, David), saith the LORD.
Ezekiel 33 'Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them: When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman; if, when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the horn, and warn the people; then whosoever heareth the sound of the horn, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head;
Psalm 89 Then Thou spokest in vision to Thy godly ones, and saidst: 'I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. I have found David My servant; with My holy oil have I anointed him; With whom My hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.
Zecharia 8 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.' (Emmanuel 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth (Elam, Jacob, Servant), or in the height above.(Cyrus, David, Sheppard)' Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman (Unmarried woman, in fact a virgin one, a maiden according to Yeshua disciples) shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.)
Isaiah 45 Thus saith the LORD: The labour of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine; they shall go after thee, in chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee: Surely God is in thee (Isaiah 9 For a child is born unto us, a son is given unto us; and the government is upon his shoulder; and his name is called Pele-joez-el-gibbor-Abi-ad-sar-shalom ( called by Mighty God or God with Us "Yeshua") ), and there is none else, there is no other God. Verily Thou art a God that hidest. Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me. Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else. By Myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from My mouth in righteousness, and shall not come back, that unto Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Only in the LORD, shall one say of Me, is victory and strength; even to Him shall men come in confusion, all they that were incensed against Him. Thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour. In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Ezekiel 37 Then He said unto me: 'Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them: O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD: Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.' Then said He unto me: 'Prophesy unto the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.' Then He said unto me: 'Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say: Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off. Therefore prophesy, and say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, O My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel And I will put My spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I will place you in your own land; and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken, and performed it, saith the LORD.'And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
Isaiah 32 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice. But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
Numbers 23 Behold, I am bidden to bless; and when He hath blessed, I cannot call it back. None hath beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath one seen perverseness in Israel; the LORD his God is with him, and the shouting for the King is among them. God who brought them forth out of Egypt is for them like the lofty horns of the wild-ox.For there is no enchantment with Jacob, neither is there any divination with Israel; now is it said of Jacob and of Israel: 'What hath God wrought!' Behold a people that riseth up as a lioness, and as a lion doth he lift himself up; he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
Isaiah 66:3-4 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he broke a dog's neck; he that offereth a meal-offering, as if he offered swine's blood; he that maketh a memorial-offering of frankincense, as if he blessed an idol; according as they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations; Even so I will choose their mockings, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear, but they did that which was evil in Mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. Hark! an uproar from the city, Hark! it cometh from the temple, Hark! the LORD rendereth recompense to His enemies.
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child. Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD; Shall I that cause to bring forth shut the womb? saith thy God.

Psalm7
O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me; Lest he tear my soul like a lion (Isaiah 21 And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'), rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands; If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness; Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth(Elam); yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah. Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded. And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high. O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Jacob as servant expose God justice Isaiah 57), and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins (Zecharia 6 even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory(Came framed as the Glory of God Isaiah 60 to the one who turn from transgression in Jacob), and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and there shall be a priest before his throne (Jacob as servant and his sacrifice, no form Isaiah 59); and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.(King and priest in his throne, staff of Aaron)) Isaiah 60 And He put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and a helmet of salvation upon His head, and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak(Number25 'Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very jealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. Wherefore say: Behold, I give unto him My covenant of peace; and it shall be unto him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.' Psalm 110 A Psalm of David. The LORD saith unto my lord: 'Sit thou at My right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.' The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: The rod of Thy strength (rod of Aaron) the LORD will send out of Zion: 'Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.''Thou art a priest for ever after the manner of Melchizedek.' Jeremiah 35 And unto the house of the Rechabites Jeremiah said: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because ye have hearkened to the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he commanded you (as Son); therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: There shall not be cut off unto Jonadab the son of Rechab a man to stand before Me for ever.') .). My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Isaias 33 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us. Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
Ezekiel 21 And thou, O wicked one (Psalm 7 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked (Zacariah 5 Curse)), that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end; (Is53, zac13:7 su a migo, el pastor jacob)) num24:9 He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up?(zac13:7 Awake, O sword, against My shepherd (Jacob near God), and against the man that is near unto Me (Isaiah 50 He is near that justifieth me, Jeremiah 30 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near (Isaiah 41 But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend (<near to God Gen 15 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness.;), and he shall approach unto Me; for who is he that hath pledged his heart to approach unto Me? saith the LORD.), saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones., jer 49 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make him run away from it, and whoso is chosen, him will I appoint over it; for who is like Me?(Ps17:15 I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.

He standeth, and shaketh the earth, He beholdeth, and maketh the nations to tremble; and the everlasting mountains are dashed in pieces, the ancient hills do bow; His goings are as of old. Thy bow is made quite bare(is22 the shield too); sworn are the rods of the word. Selah. Thou dost cleave the earth with rivers. Thou art come forth for the deliverance of Thy people, for the deliverance of Thine anointed; Thou woundest the head out of the house of the wicked, uncovering the foundation even unto the neck. Selah Is40 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.', 42 The LORD was pleased, for His righteousness' sake, to make the teaching great and glorious. 45 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.)) and who will appoint Me a time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before Me?

And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will

But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.)
refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried; they shall call on My name, and I will answer them; I will say: 'It is My people', and they shall say: 'The LORD is my God.'Jeremiah 49 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that He hath taken against Edom; and His purposes, that He hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the least of the flock shall drag them away, surely their habitation shall be appalled at them.) Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee (Genesis 49:9 Judah is a lion's whelp; from the prey, my son, thou art gone up. He stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up?
Matthew 3 “Repent, for ethe kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Isaiah 55 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near;Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon.
Psalm7 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready; He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp. Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate. I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Isaiah 60 According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay, fury to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies; to the islands He will repay recompense.
Jeremiah 30 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have executed, and till He have performed the purposes of His heart (Isaiah 53 Yet it pleased the LORD to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of the LORD might prosper by his hand:
Isaiah 44 Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant (Isaiah 59 And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob

They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off (Island will wait his law), and say: 'He that scattered Israel doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.' For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he. And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of the LORD, to the corn, and to the wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered garden, and they shall not pine any more at all. )

Isaiah 59 And as for Me, this is My covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and My words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
Isaiah 44 And they shall spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses. One shall say: 'I am the LORD'S'; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel. Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God. And who, as I, can proclaim—let him declare it, and set it in order for Me—since I appointed the ancient people? And the things that are coming, and that shall come to pass, let them declare. Fear ye not, neither be afraid; have I not announced unto thee of old, and declared it? And ye are My witnesses. Is there a God beside Me? Yea, there is no Rock; I know not any. Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel

Joel 3 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
Isaiah 59 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; for distress will come in like a flood(Servant was crushed by transgression, like a river), which the breath of the LORD driveth (cause to disappear, dry).
Isaiah 44 That confirmeth the word of His servant (Isaiah 41 But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend Gen15 And he believed in the LORD; and He counted it to him for righteousness. ), and performeth the counsel of His messengers; that saith of Jerusalem: 'She shall be inhabited'; and of the cities of Judah: 'They shall be built, and I will raise up the waste places thereof'; That saith to the deep: 'Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers';
Jeremiah 31 Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say: 'He that scattered Israel (as servant) doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.'

Isaiah 40 Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a Mighty One (servant), and His arm will rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Even as a shepherd that feedeth his flock, that gathereth the lambs in his arm, and carrieth them in his bosom, and gently leadeth those that give suck.
Ezekiel 37 And My servant David shall be king over them, and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in Mine ordinances, and observe My statutes, and do them.
And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, for ever; and David My servant shall be their prince for ever. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them” it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will establish them, and multiply them, and will set My sanctuary in the midst of them for ever. And the nations shall know that I am the LORD that sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever. ()'
Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins() and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes. And thou, O wicked one (Psalm 7 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked ), that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant(Jacob) shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee—so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.), have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'

And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even My servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. And I the LORD will be their God, and My servant David prince among them; I the LORD have spoken.
And they shall know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are My people, saith the Lord GOD.
Micah 5 Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. Therefore will He give them up, until the time that she who travaileth hath brought forth (Psalm7 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood. Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear. Jeremiah 31 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together; a great company shall they return hither.); then the residue of his brethren shall return with the children of Israel.
Micah 5 And he shall stand, and shall feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide, for then shall he be great unto the ends of the earth. And this shall be peace: when the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight princes among men.
Micah 7 Tend Thy people with Thy staff, the flock of Thy heritage, that dwell solitarily, as a forest in the midst of the fruitful field; let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.'As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things.' Thou wilt show faithfulness to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, as Thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
Numbers 24 How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, thy dwellings, O Israel! As valleys stretched out, as gardens by the river-side; as aloes planted of the LORD, as cedars (sons of the majestic cedar of Ezekiel) beside the waters; Water(Justice, Rightenous) shall flow from his branches, and his seed shall be in many waters (isles); and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted (By offering himself (like Esther in sackcloth and repentance for Israel sins) and gird his loin low he is higher In Heaven(Ezekiel 21 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north; Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.)). He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? Blessed be every one that blesseth thee, and cursed be every one that curseth thee. The saying of him who heareth the words of God, and knoweth the knowledge of the Most High, who seeth the vision of the Almighty, fallen down, yet with opened eyes: I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh; there shall step forth a star out of Jacob(Cyrus, David), and a scepter shall rise out of Israel(Sheppard's staff), and shall smite through the corners of Moab, and break down all the sons of Seth.
Isaiah 48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the fountain of Judah; who swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness. For My name's sake will I defer Mine anger, and for My praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. Behold, I have refined thee, but not as silver; I have tried thee in the furnace of affliction. I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for Mine own sake; and thy sins I will not remember. For Mine own sake, for Mine own sake, will I do it; for how should it be profaned? And My glory will I not give to another. Hearken unto Me, O Jacob, and Israel My called: I am He; I am the first, I also am the last. Yea, My hand hath laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand hath spread out the heavens; when I call unto them, they stand up together. Assemble yourselves, all ye, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? He whom the LORD loveth(Jacob his friend in Zacariah 13) shall perform His pleasure on Babylon, and show His arm (Isaiah 52 The LORD hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isaiah 53 'Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the LORD been revealed?) on the Chaldeans. I, even I, have spoken, yea, I have called him; I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. Come ye near unto Me, hear ye this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it was, there am I; and now the Lord GOD hath sent me, and His spirit(is57,61,mal3, is40 his glory). Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the LORD thy God, who teacheth thee for thy profit, who leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. Oh that thou wouldest hearken to My commandments! then would thy peace be as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea; And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.'
Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant shall prosper (Jacob), he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
Micah 2 The breaker (sea breaker) is gone up before them; they have broken forth and passed on, by the gate, and are gone out thereat; and their king is passed on before them, and the LORD at the head of them.
Isaiah 44 That saith of Cyrus (Meaning Sun, Star of Jacob, David, his scepter and Sheppard): 'He is My shepherd (God redeemer), and shall perform all My pleasure'; even saying of Jerusalem: 'She shall be built'; and to the temple: 'My foundation shall be laid.'
Isaiah 11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a twig shall grow forth out of his roots. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. And his delight shall be in the fear of the LORD; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the land; and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious.
In those days, and at that time, will I cause a shoot of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name whereby she shall be called, the LORD is our righteousness. For thus saith the LORD: There shall not be cut off unto David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; neither shall there be cut off unto the priests the Levites a man before Me to offer burnt-offerings, and to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. (Jaco as servant sacrificing himself and returning as David in his throne) Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also My covenant be broken with David My servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me. 'Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them(Become one as). then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David(as servant/sacrifice burnt and peace offerings with his life as priest. 2 Sammuel 6 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded (with justice) with a linen ephod (he behave like a priest after became king ). So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn(preach God words). And it was so, as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the LORD. And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said: 'How did the king of Israel get him honour to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!'And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry. And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight(to the ground, Sheol); and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.' Proverbs 30 For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure: For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food; For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress. Proverbs 21 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household (Blessing), and a portion to her maidens.) My servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.'
Psalm 74
In Thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed.
Be Thou to me a sheltering rock, whereunto I may continually resort, which Thou hast appointed to save me; for Thou art my rock and my fortress.
I am as a wonder unto many; but Thou art my strong refuge.
My mouth shall tell of Thy righteousness, and of Thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
I will come with Thy mighty acts, O Lord GOD; I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only.
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth(Isaiah 50 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning (open eyes), He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught. The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward, Isaiah 53 Of the travail of his soul he shall see to the full, even My servant, who by his knowledge did justify the Righteous One to the many, and their iniquities he did bear.); and until now do I declare Thy wondrous works.
And even unto old age and hoary hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.
Thy righteousness also, O God, which reacheth unto high heaven; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto Thee?
Thou, who hast made me to see many and sore troubles, wilt quicken me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth(Isaiah 7 'Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God: ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. (depth in Sheol and High as the heaven the Sun of righteousness)'
And he said: 'Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, that ye will weary my God also?
Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. (God with Us, Cyrus)). Thou wilt increase my greatness, and turn and comfort me(Cyrus, Isaiah 60; 44-45).
Psalm 72 A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the king's son; That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy poor with justice.
Ezekiel 17 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Moreover I will take, even I, of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one (Isaiah 11, 53 shoot), and I will plant it upon a high mountain and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a stately cedar; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing, in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell. And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree (Isaiah 53 For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. Isaiah 52 Behold, My servant(Jacob) shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. According as many were appalled at thee”so marred was his visage unlike that of a man, and his form unlike that of the sons of men” So shall he startle many nations, kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see, and that which they had not heard shall they perceive.), have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I the LORD have spoken and have done it.'
Isaiah 14 The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of the rulers, For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent (redeem from sin Isaiah 6 Seraph). Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks (Isaiah 5:27 In its ranks, none is weary or stumbles,
They never sleep or slumber; The belts on their waists do not come loose,
Nor do the thongs of their sandals break.). What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.
Habbakuk 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith (friends of God).
Amos 9 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, that say: 'The evil shall not overtake nor confront us.' In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;
Isaiah 16 And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
Isaiah 60 Arise, shine (Cyrus, David), for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall throb and be enlarged (Tent); because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee. Surely the isles shall wait for Me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because He hath glorified thee. For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron; I will also make thy officers peace, and righteousness thy magistrates
Malachi 2 Yet ye say: 'Wherefore?' Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously, though she is thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And not one hath done so who had exuberance of spirit! For what seeketh the one? a seed given of God. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. For I hate putting away, saith the LORD, the God of Israel, and him that covereth his garment with violence, saith the LORD of hosts; therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say: 'Wherein have we wearied Him?' In that ye say: 'Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and He delighteth in them; or where is the God of justice?'.
Malachi 3 Behold, I send My messenger, and he shall clear the way before Me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in, behold, he cometh, saith the LORD of hosts(redeemer). But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap; And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers; and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the LORD of hosts. For I the LORD change not; and ye, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. From the days of your fathers ye have turned aside from Mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto Me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye say: 'Wherein shall we return?' Will a man rob God? Yet ye rob Me. But ye say: 'Wherein have we robbed Thee?' In tithes and heave-offerings. Ye are cursed with the curse, yet ye rob Me, even this whole nation.(Jacob curse, zac5) Bring ye the whole tithe into the store-house, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall be more than sufficiency. And I will rebuke the devourer for your good, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your land; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts Then shall ye again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth Him not.
Isaiah 60 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, the plane-tree and the larch together; to beautify the place of My sanctuary, and I will make the place of My feet glorious. Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, wherein I glory.
