the lions{H738} have driven him away{H5080}{(H8689)}: first{H7223} the king{H4428} of Assyria{H804} hath devoured{H398}{(H8804)} him; and last{H314} this Nebuchadrezzar{H5019} king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} hath broken his bones{H6105}{(H8765)}. 18 Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, the God{H430} of Israel{H3478}; Behold, I will punish{H6485}{(H8802)} the king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} and his land{H776}, as I have punished{H6485}{(H8804)} the king{H4428} of Assyria{H804}. 19 And I will bring{H7725} Israel{H3478} again{H7725}{(H8790)} to his habitation{H5116}, and he shall feed{H7462}{(H8804)} on Carmel{H3760} and Bashan{H1316}, and his soul{H5315} shall be satisfied{H7646}{(H8799)} upon mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669} and Gilead{H1568}. 20 In those days{H3117}, and in that time{H6256}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, the iniquity{H5771} of Israel{H3478} shall be sought for{H1245}{(H8792)}, and there shall be none; and the sins{H2403} of Judah{H3063}, and they shall not be found{H4672}{(H8735)}: for I will pardon{H5545}{(H8799)} them whom I reserve{H7604}{(H8686)}. 21 Go up{H5927}{(H8798)} against the land{H776} of Merathaim{H4850}, even against it, and against the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Pekod{H6489}: waste{H2717}{(H8798)} and utterly destroy{H2763}{(H8687)} after{H310} them, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, and do{H6213}{(H8798)} according to all that I have commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} thee. 22 A sound{H6963} of battle{H4421} is in the land{H776}, and of great{H1419} destruction{H7667}. 23 How is the hammer{H6360} of the whole earth{H776} cut asunder{H1438}{(H8738)} and broken{H7665}{(H8735)}! how is Babylon{H894} become a desolation{H8047} among the nations{H1471}! 24 I have laid a snare{H3369}{(H8804)} for thee, and thou art also taken{H3920}{(H8738)}, O Babylon{H894}, and thou wast not aware{H3045}{(H8804)}: thou art found{H4672}{(H8738)}, and also caught{H8610}{(H8738)}, because thou hast striven{H1624}{(H8694)} against the LORD{H3068}. 25 The LORD{H3068} hath opened{H6605}{(H8804)} his armoury{H214}, and hath brought forth{H3318}{(H8686)} the weapons{H3627} of his indignation{H2195}: for this is the work{H4399} of the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069} of hosts{H6635} in the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}. 26 Come{H935}{(H8798)} against her from the utmost border{H7093}, open{H6605}{(H8798)} her storehouses{H3965}: cast her up{H5549}{(H8798)} as heaps{H6194}, and destroy her utterly{H2763}{(H8685)}: let nothing of her be left{H7611}. 27 Slay{H2717}{(H8798)} all her bullocks{H6499}; let them go down{H3381}{(H8799)} to the slaughter{H2874}: woe{H1945} unto them! for their day{H3117} is come{H935}{(H8802)}, the time{H6256} of their visitation{H6486}. 28 The voice{H6963} of them that flee{H5127}{(H8801)} and escape out{H6405} of the land{H776} of Babylon{H894}, to declare{H5046}{(H8687)} in Zion{H6726} the vengeance{H5360} of the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}, the vengeance{H5360} of his temple{H1964}. 29 Call together{H8085}{(H8685)} the archers{H7228} against Babylon{H894}: all ye that bend{H1869}{(H8802)} the bow{H7198}, camp{H2583}{(H8798)} against it round about{H5439}; let none thereof escape{H6413}: recompense{H7999}{(H8761)} her according to her work{H6467}; according to all that she hath done{H6213}{(H8804)}, do{H6213}{(H8798)} unto her: for she hath been proud{H2102}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068}, against the Holy One{H6918} of Israel{H3478}. 30 Therefore shall her young men{H970} fall{H5307}{(H8799)} in the streets{H7339}, and all her men{H582} of war{H4421} shall be cut off{H1826}{(H8735)} in that day{H3117}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud{H2087}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069} of hosts{H6635}: for thy day{H3117} is come{H935}{(H8802)}, the time{H6256} that I will visit{H6485}{(H8804)} thee. 32 And the most proud{H2087} shall stumble{H3782}{(H8804)} and fall{H5307}{(H8804)}, and none shall raise him up{H6965}{(H8688)}: and I will kindle{H3341}{(H8689)} a fire{H784} in his cities{H5892}, and it shall devour{H398}{(H8804)} all round about{H5439} him. 33 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}; The children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} and the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} were oppressed{H6231}{(H8803)} together{H3162}: and all that took them captives{H7617}{(H8802)} held them fast{H2388}{(H8689)}; they refused{H3985}{(H8765)} to let them go{H7971}{(H8763)}. 34 Their Redeemer{H1350}{(H8802)} is strong{H2389}; the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635} is his name{H8034}: he shall throughly{H7378}{(H8800)} plead{H7378}{(H8799)} their cause{H7379}, that he may give rest{H7280}{(H8689)} to the land{H776}, and disquiet{H7264}{(H8689)} the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Babylon{H894}. 35 A sword{H2719} is upon the Chaldeans{H3778}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}, and upon the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Babylon{H894}, and upon her princes{H8269}, and upon her wise{H2450} men. 36 A sword{H2719} is upon the liars{H907}; and they shall dote{H2973}{(H8738)}: a sword{H2719} is upon her mighty men{H1368}; and they shall be dismayed{H2865}{(H8804)}. 37 A sword{H2719} is upon their horses{H5483}, and upon their chariots{H7393}, and upon all the mingled people{H6153} that are in the midst{H8432} of her; and they shall become as women{H802}: a sword{H2719} is upon her treasures{H214}; and they shall be robbed{H962}{(H8795)}. 38 A drought{H2721} is upon her waters{H4325}; and they shall be dried up{H3001}{(H8804)}: for it is the land{H776} of graven images{H6456}, and they are mad{H1984}{(H8704)} upon their idols{H367}. 39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert{H6728} with the wild beasts of the islands{H338} shall dwell{H3427}{(H8799)} there, and the owls{H1323}{H3284} shall dwell{H3427}{(H8804)} therein: and it shall be no more inhabited{H3427}{(H8799)} for ever{H5331}; neither shall it be dwelt{H7931}{(H8799)} in from generation{H1755} to generation{H1755}. 40 As God{H430} overthrew{H4114} Sodom{H5467} and Gomorrah{H6017} and the neighbour{H7934} cities thereof, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}; so shall no man{H376} abide{H3427}{(H8799)} there, neither shall any son{H1121} of man{H120} dwell{H1481}{(H8799)} therein. 41 Behold, a people{H5971} shall come{H935}{(H8802)} from the north{H6828}, and a great{H1419} nation{H1471}, and many{H7227} kings{H4428} shall be raised up{H5782}{(H8735)} from the coasts{H3411} of the earth{H776}. 42 They shall hold{H2388}{(H8686)} the bow{H7198} and the lance{H3591}: they are cruel{H394}, and will not shew mercy{H7355}{(H8762)}: their voice{H6963} shall roar{H1993}{(H8799)} like the sea{H3220}, and they shall ride{H7392}{(H8799)} upon horses{H5483}, every one put in array{H6186}{(H8803)}, like a man{H376} to the battle{H4421}, against thee, O daughter{H1323} of Babylon{H894}. 43 The king{H4428} of Babylon{H894} hath heard{H8085}{(H8804)} the report{H8088} of them, and his hands{H3027} waxed feeble{H7503}{(H8804)}: anguish{H6869} took hold{H2388}{(H8689)} of him, and pangs{H2427} as of a woman in travail{H3205}{(H8802)}. 44 Behold, he shall come up{H5927}{(H8799)} like a lion{H738} from the swelling{H1347} of Jordan{H3383} unto the habitation{H5116} of the strong{H386}: but I will make{H7323} them suddenly{H7280}{(H8686)} run away{H7323}{(H8686)}{(H8675)}{H7323}{(H8799)} from her: and who is a chosen{H977}{(H8803)} man, that I may appoint{H6485}{(H8799)} over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time{H3259}{(H8686)}? and who is that shepherd{H7462}{(H8802)} that will stand{H5975}{(H8799)} before{H6440} me? 45 Therefore hear{H8085}{(H8798)} ye the counsel{H6098} of the LORD{H3068}, that he hath taken{H3289}{(H8804)} against Babylon{H894}; and his purposes{H4284}, that he hath purposed{H2803}{(H8804)} against the land{H776} of the Chaldeans{H3778}: Surely the least{H6810} of the flock{H6629} shall draw them out{H5498}{(H8799)}: surely he shall make their habitation{H5116} desolate{H8074}{(H8686)} with them. 46 At the noise{H6963} of the taking{H8610}{(H8738)} of Babylon{H894} the earth{H776} is moved{H7493}{(H8735)}, and the cry{H2201} is heard{H8085}{(H8738)} among the nations{H1471}.

  • Dan 5:1-9 : 1 Belshazzar{H1113} the king{H4430} made{H5648}{(H8754)} a great{H7229} feast{H3900} to a thousand{H506} of his lords{H7261}, and drank{H8355}{(H8750)} wine{H2562} before{H6903} the thousand{H506}. 2 Belshazzar{H1113}, whiles he tasted{H2942} the wine{H2562}, commanded{H560}{(H8754)} to bring{H858}{(H8682)} the golden{H1722} and silver{H3702} vessels{H3984} which his father{H2} Nebuchadnezzar{H5020} had taken{H5312}{(H8684)} out of{H4481} the temple{H1965} which was in Jerusalem{H3390}; that the king{H4430}, and his princes{H7261}, his wives{H7695}, and his concubines{H3904}, might drink{H8355}{(H8748)} therein. 3 Then{H116} they brought{H858}{(H8684)} the golden{H1722} vessels{H3984} that were taken{H5312}{(H8684)} out of{H4481} the temple{H1965} of the house{H1005} of God{H426} which was at Jerusalem{H3390}; and the king{H4430}, and his princes{H7261}, his wives{H7695}, and his concubines{H3904}, drank{H8355}{(H8754)} in them. 4 They drank{H8355}{(H8754)} wine{H2562}, and praised{H7624}{(H8745)} the gods{H426} of gold{H1722}, and of silver{H3702}, of brass{H5174}, of iron{H6523}, of wood{H636}, and of stone{H69}. 5 In the same hour{H8160} came forth{H5312}{(H8754)} fingers{H677} of a man's{H606} hand{H3028}, and wrote{H3790}{(H8751)} over against{H6903} the candlestick{H5043} upon{H5922} the plaister{H1528} of the wall{H3797} of the king's{H4430} palace{H1965}: and the king{H4430} saw{H2370}{(H8751)} the part{H6447} of the hand{H3028} that wrote{H3790}{(H8751)}. 6 Then{H116} the king's{H4430} countenance{H2122} was changed{H8133}{(H8754)}, and his thoughts{H7476} troubled{H927}{(H8792)} him, so that the joints{H7001} of his loins{H2783} were loosed{H8271}{(H8723)}, and his knees{H755} smote{H5368}{(H8750)} one{H1668} against another{H1668}. 7 The king{H4430} cried{H7123}{(H8748)} aloud{H2429} to bring{H5954}{(H8682)} in the astrologers{H826}, the Chaldeans{H3779}, and the soothsayers{H1505}{(H8750)}. And the king{H4430} spake{H6032}{(H8750)}, and said{H560}{(H8750)} to the wise{H2445} men of Babylon{H895}, Whosoever{H606}{H3606} shall read{H7123}{(H8751)} this{H1836} writing{H3792}, and shew{H2324}{(H8741)} me the interpretation{H6591} thereof, shall be clothed{H3848}{(H8748)} with scarlet{H711}, and have a chain{H2002} of gold{H1722} about{H5922} his neck{H6676}, and shall be the third{H8523} ruler{H7981}{(H8748)} in the kingdom{H4437}. 8 Then{H116} came{H5954}{(H8750)} in all{H3606} the king's{H4430} wise{H2445} men: but they could{H3546}{(H8751)} not{H3809} read{H7123}{(H8749)} the writing{H3792}, nor make known{H3046}{(H8682)} to the king{H4430} the interpretation{H6591} thereof. 9 Then{H116} was king{H4430} Belshazzar{H1113} greatly{H7690} troubled{H927}{(H8727)}, and his countenance{H2122} was changed{H8133}{(H8750)} in him{H5922}, and his lords{H7261} were astonied{H7672}{(H8723)}. 10 Now the queen{H4433}, by reason{H6903} of the words{H4406} of the king{H4430} and his lords{H7261}, came{H5954}{(H8754)} into the banquet{H4961} house{H1005}: and the queen{H4433} spake{H6032}{(H8754)} and said{H560}{(H8754)}, O king{H4430}, live{H2418}{(H8747)} for ever{H5957}: let not{H409} thy thoughts{H7476} trouble{H927}{(H8792)} thee, nor let thy countenance{H2122} be changed{H8133}{(H8721)}: 11 There is{H383} a man{H1400} in thy kingdom{H4437}, in whom is the spirit{H7308} of the holy{H6922} gods{H426}; and in the days{H3118} of thy father{H2} light{H5094} and understanding{H7924} and wisdom{H2452}, like the wisdom{H2452} of the gods{H426}, was found{H7912}{(H8728)} in him; whom the king{H4430} Nebuchadnezzar{H5020} thy father{H2}, the king{H4430}, I say, thy father{H2}, made{H6966}{(H8684)} master{H7229} of the magicians{H2749}, astrologers{H826}, Chaldeans{H3779}, and soothsayers{H1505}{(H8750)}; 12 Forasmuch as{H6903}{H3606} an excellent{H3493} spirit{H7308}, and knowledge{H4486}, and understanding{H7924}, interpreting{H6590}{(H8743)} of dreams{H2493}, and shewing{H263} of hard sentences{H280}, and dissolving{H8271}{(H8743)} of doubts{H7001}, were found{H7912}{(H8728)} in the same Daniel{H1841}, whom the king{H4430} named{H7761}{(H8754)}{H8036} Belteshazzar{H1096}: now{H3705} let Daniel{H1841} be called{H7123}{(H8729)}, and he will shew{H2324}{(H8681)} the interpretation{H6591}. 13 Then{H116} was Daniel{H1841} brought in{H5954}{(H8717)} before{H6925} the king{H4430}. And the king{H4430} spake{H6032}{(H8750)} and said{H560}{(H8750)} unto Daniel{H1841}, Art thou{H607} that Daniel{H1841}, which art of{H4481} the children{H1123} of the captivity{H1547} of Judah{H3061}, whom the king{H4430} my father{H2} brought{H858}{(H8684)} out of{H4481} Jewry{H3061}? 14 I have even heard{H8086}{(H8754)} of thee, that the spirit{H7308} of the gods{H426} is in thee{H5922}, and that light{H5094} and understanding{H7924} and excellent{H3493} wisdom{H2452} is found{H7912}{(H8728)} in thee. 15 And now{H3705} the wise{H2445} men, the astrologers{H826}, have been brought{H5954}{(H8717)} in before{H6925} me, that they should read{H7123}{(H8748)} this{H1836} writing{H3792}, and make known{H3046}{(H8682)} unto me the interpretation{H6591} thereof: but they could{H3546}{(H8751)} not{H3809} shew{H2324}{(H8682)} the interpretation{H6591} of the thing{H4406}: 16 And I{H576} have heard{H8086}{(H8754)} of thee{H5922}, that thou canst{H3202}{(H8748)} make{H6590}{(H8749)} interpretations{H6591}, and dissolve{H8271}{(H8749)} doubts{H7001}: now{H3705} if{H2006} thou canst{H3202}{(H8748)} read{H7123}{(H8749)} the writing{H3792}, and make known{H3046}{(H8682)} to me the interpretation{H6591} thereof, thou shalt be clothed{H3848}{(H8748)} with scarlet{H711}, and have a chain{H2002} of gold{H1722} about{H5922} thy neck{H6676}, and shalt be the third{H8531} ruler{H7981}{(H8748)} in the kingdom{H4437}. 17 Then{H116} Daniel{H1841} answered{H6032}{(H8750)} and said{H560}{(H8750)} before{H6925} the king{H4430}, Let thy gifts{H4978} be{H1934}{(H8748)} to thyself, and give{H3052}{(H8747)} thy rewards{H5023} to another{H321}; yet{H1297} I will read{H7123}{(H8748)} the writing{H3792} unto the king{H4430}, and make known{H3046}{(H8681)} to him the interpretation{H6591}. 18 O thou{H607} king{H4430}, the most high{H5943} God{H426} gave{H3052}{(H8754)} Nebuchadnezzar{H5020} thy father{H2} a kingdom{H4437}, and majesty{H7238}, and glory{H3367}, and honour{H1923}: 19 And for{H4481} the majesty{H7238} that he gave{H3052}{(H8754)} him, all{H3606} people{H5972}, nations{H524}, and languages{H3961}, trembled{H1934}{(H8754)}{H2112} and feared{H1763}{(H8751)} before{H4481} him{H6925}: whom he would{H1934}{(H8754)}{H6634}{(H8750)} he slew{H1934}{(H8754)}{H6992}{(H8751)};

Thy kingdom{H4437} is divided{H6537}{(H8752)}, and given{H3052}{(H8753)} to the Medes{H4076} and Persians{H6540}. 29 Then{H116} commanded{H560}{(H8754)} Belshazzar{H1113}, and they clothed{H3848}{(H8684)} Daniel{H1841} with scarlet{H711}, and put a chain{H2002} of gold{H1722} about{H5922} his neck{H6676}, and made a proclamation{H3745}{(H8684)} concerning{H5922} him, that he should be{H1934}{(H8748)} the third{H8531} ruler{H7990} in the kingdom{H4437}. 30 In that night{H3916} was Belshazzar{H1113} the king{H4430} of the Chaldeans{H3779} slain{H6992}{(H8752)}. 31 And Darius{H1868} the Median{H4077} took{H6902}{(H8745)} the kingdom{H4437}, being about threescore{H8361} and two{H8648} years{H8140} old{H1247}.
