  • Ps 78:60-72 : 60 And He leaveth the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent He had placed among men, 61 And He giveth His strength to captivity, And His beauty into the hand of an adversary, 62 And delivereth up to the sword His people, And with His inheritance shewed Himself angry. 63 His young men hath fire consumed, And His virgins have not been praised. 64 His priests by the sword have fallen, And their widows weep not. 65 And the Lord waketh as a sleeper, As a mighty one crying aloud from wine. 66 And He smiteth His adversaries backward, A reproach age-during He hath put on them, 67 And He kicketh against the tent of Joseph, And on the tribe of Ephraim hath not fixed. 68 And He chooseth the tribe of Judah, With mount Zion that He loved, 69 And buildeth His sanctuary as a high place, Like the earth, He founded it to the age. 70 And He fixeth on David His servant, And taketh him from the folds of a flock, 71 From behind suckling ones He hath brought him in, To rule over Jacob His people, And over Israel His inheritance. 72 And he ruleth them according to the integrity of his heart, And by the skilfulness of his hands leadeth them!
  • Isa 24:1-9 : 1 Lo, Jehovah is emptying the land, And is making it waste, And hath overturned `it on' its face, And hath scattered its inhabitants. 2 And it hath been -- as a people so a priest, As the servant so his master, As the maid-servant so her mistress, As the buyer so the seller, As the lender so the borrower, As the usurer so he who is lifting `it' on himself. 3 Utterly emptied is the land, and utterly spoiled, For Jehovah hath spoken this word: 4 Mourned, faded hath the land, Languished, faded hath the world, Languished have they -- the high place of the people of the land. 5 And the land hath been defiled under its inhabitants, Because they have transgressed laws, They have changed a statute, They have made void a covenant age-during. 6 Therefore a curse hath consumed the land, And the inhabitants in it are become desolate, Therefore consumed have been inhabitants of the land, And few men have been left. 7 Mourned hath the new wine, languished the vine, Sighed have all the joyful of heart. 8 Ceased hath the joy of tabrets, Ceased hath the noise of exulting ones, Ceased hath the joy of a harp. 9 With a song they drink not wine, Bitter is strong drink to those drinking it. 10 It was broken down -- a city of emptiness, Shut hath been every house from entrance. 11 A cry over the wine `is' in out-places, Darkened hath been all joy, Removed hath been the joy of the land. 12 Left in the city `is' desolation, And `with' wasting is the gate smitten.
