Take to
thee a great tablet
, and write upon
it with a graving
tool
of
man,
To
haste
spoil,
enjoy
prey
. '
Moreover
the
LORD
said
unto me, Take thee a great roll
, and write in
it with a man's
pen
concerning
Mahershalalhashbaz
.

faithful witnesses to testify
to
me
, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah son of Jeberechiah.

And
Jehovah
addeth
to
speak
unto me again, saying :
The
LORD
spake
also
unto me again, saying ,
`Because
that
this people hath
refused
The waters of Shiloah that go softly, And is
rejoicing
with
Rezin and the
son of
Remaliah,
Forasmuch
as
this people refuseth
the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice
in
Rezin and Remaliah's
son ;
Therefore, lo
, the Lord is
bringing
up on
them ,
The waters of the river, the
mighty
and the
great
, (
The king of Asshur
, and all his glory ,)
And it
hath
gone
up over all its
streams
, And hath
gone
on
over all its
banks .
Now
therefore, behold
, the Lord bringeth
up upon
them the waters of the river, strong
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 it
hath
passed
on
into
Judah ,
It
hath
overflown
and passed
over, Unto
the neck it
cometh,
And the stretching out of its
wings Hath
been
the
fulness
of
the breadth of thy land, O Emmanu-El!
And he
shall
pass
through
Judah ;
he
shall
overflow
and go
over, he
shall
reach
even
to
the neck ;
and the stretching out of his
wings shall
fill
the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.
Be
friends
, O nations
, and be broken ,
And give ear, all ye far
off
ones
of earth,
Gird yourselves, and be broken ,
Gird yourselves, and be broken.
Associate
yourselves
, O ye
people
, 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, and it is
broken,
Speak a
word, and it doth
not stand ,
Because
of
Emmanu-El!'
Take counsel together
, and it shall
come
to
nought;
speak the
word, and it shall
not stand :
for
God
is
with
us.
For thus hath
Jehovah
spoken
unto
me with strength
of
hand, and instructeth
me against
walking
in the way of this people, saying,
For the
LORD
spake
thus to
me with a
strong
hand, and instructed
me that
I
should
not
walk
in the way of this people, saying,
`
Ye do
not say
, A confederacy, To all to whom this people saith
, A confederacy ,
And
its
fear ye do
not
fear, Nor declare
fearful
.
Say
ye not, A confederacy, to all them
to whom this people shall
say
, A confederacy ;
neither
fear ye their
fear, nor be
afraid
.
Jehovah
of Hosts --
Him
ye
do
sanctify,
And He
`is'
your Fear, and He
your Dread ,
Sanctify
the
LORD
of hosts himself;
and let
him
be
your fear, and let
him
be
your dread .
And He hath
been
for a sanctuary ,
And
for a stone of stumbling ,
and for a rock of falling,
To the two
houses of Israel, For a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
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 have
stumbled
and fallen
, And been
broken, and snared, and captured
.
And many among them shall
stumble,
and fall
, and be
broken, and be
snared, and be
taken
.
Bind up the testimony, Seal the law among My disciples.

waited
for
Jehovah
, Who
is
hiding
His face from the house of Jacob, And I have
looked
for Him.

wait
upon
the
LORD
, that
hideth
his face from the house of Jacob, and I will
look
for him.
Lo
, I ,
and the children whom Jehovah
hath given to
me ,
`
Are '

From Jehovah
of Hosts, who
is
dwelling
in Mount Zion.
Behold
, I and the children whom the
LORD
hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the
LORD
of hosts, which
dwelleth

And when they say unto you, `
Seek unto those
having
familiar spirits, And unto wizards, who
chatter
and mutter ,
Doth
not a people seek unto its
God? --
For the living unto
the dead !
And when they shall
say unto you, Seek unto them
that
have
familiar spirits, and unto wizards that
peep
, and that
mutter :
should
not a people seek unto their
God? for the living to
the dead ?
To the law and to the testimony !
If not ,
let
them
say
after
this manner
, `That
there is no dawn
to
it
. '
To the law and to the testimony :
if they
speak
not according
to
this word
, it
is
because
there is no light
in
them
.
--
And it
hath
passed
over
into
it, hardened
and hungry ,
And it hath
come to pass, That it
is
hungry, and
hath
been
wroth
, And made
light
of
its
king ,
and of
its
God, And hath
looked
upwards
.
And they
shall
pass
through
it, hardly
bestead
and hungry :
and it shall
come to pass, that when
they
shall
be
hungry, they
shall
fret
themselves
, and curse
their
king and their
God, and look
upward
.
And unto the land
it
looketh
attentively,
And lo,
adversity
and darkness !
--
Dimness
, distress,
and thick
darkness
is
driven away,
But
not
the
dimness
for
which
she
is
in
distress!
And they
shall
look
unto the earth;
and behold
trouble
and darkness, dimness
of
anguish;
and they
shall
be
driven to
darkness.
