King James Version
Woe is me! For I am like
one
gathering
summer fruit
at
the gleaning
of the vineyard;
there is no cluster to eat ,
no
early
fig
that
I
crave
.
Woe is me! for I am as
when
they
have
gathered
the
summer fruits,
as
the grapegleanings
of the vintage:
there is no cluster to eat :
my
soul
desired
the
firstripe
fruit
.
The godly
man has
perished from
the earth ;
there is no
one
upright among men .
They all lie in wait for blood; they hunt one
another
with a net.
The good
man is
perished out
of
the earth :
and
there is none
upright among men :
they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every
man
his
brother
with a net.
Both hands are
skilled
at
evil;
the prince and the judge demand
a bribe.
When
the powerful
utters
his evil
desire ,
they all
conspire
together
.
That
they
may
do
evil
with
both hands earnestly,
the prince asketh,
and the judge asketh
for
a reward;
and
the great
man,
he
uttereth
his mischievous
desire :
so
they wrap
it
up
.
The best of them is like
a brier ;
the most upright is sharper than a hedge of
thorns.
The
day
for
your
watchmen
has
come,
the day of your
visitation .
Now is
the
time
of
their confusion
.
The best of them is as
a brier :
the most upright is sharper than a thorn
hedge :
the day of thy
watchmen
and
thy
visitation cometh;
now shall
be
their perplexity
.
Do
not rely
on
a friend ;
do
not trust
in a companion.
Seal
the doors of your
mouth from her who
lies
in your
arms
.
Trust
ye
not in
a friend ,
put
ye
not confidence
in a guide:
keep
the doors of thy
mouth from her that
lieth
in thy
bosom
.
For a
son dishonors
his
father, a
daughter rises
against her mother, and
a
daughter -
in -
law against her mother -
in -
law .
A man’s
enemies are the members
of his own household
.
For the
son dishonoureth
the
father, the
daughter riseth
up
against her mother, the
daughter in law against her mother in law ;
a man's
enemies are the men
of his own house
.
But
as
for
me,
I will look to
the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation .
My God will hear me.
Therefore
I will look unto
the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation :
my God will hear me.
Do
not gloat
over
me, my
enemy !
Though
I have
fallen
, I will
arise; though
I sit in darkness, the LORD will
be my
light.
Rejoice
not against
me, O
mine
enemy :
when
I fall
, I shall
arise; when
I sit in darkness, the LORD shall
be a
light unto
me
.
Because I have sinned against Him, I
must
endure
the
rage
of
the
LORD,
until He argues
my case
and executes
justice
for me .
He will bring me into
the light ;
I will
see
His righteousness.
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.
Then my
enemy will
see and will
be
covered
with
shame —
she
who
said to
me, “
Where is the LORD your
God? ”
My
eyes will
see
her ;
at
that
time
she will
be trampled
like
mud
in
the streets.
Then she
that
is
mine
enemy shall
see it,
and shame shall
cover
her
which
said unto
me, Where is the LORD thy
God? mine
eyes shall
behold
her :
now
shall
she be trodden
down
as
the mire
of
the
streets.
The day for
rebuilding
your
walls will
come—
the
day for
extending
your
boundary
.
In
the day that
thy
walls are
to
be
built,
in
that
day shall
the
decree
be
far
removed
.
On
that day they
will
come to you
from Assyria and the cities of
Egypt
, even
from Egypt
to the Euphrates
, from sea to sea and mountain to mountain.
In
that day also
he
shall
come even
to thee
from Assyria ,
and from
the fortified
cities, and
from the
fortress
even
to the river
, and
from sea to sea ,
and from
mountain to mountain.
Then
the earth
will
become
desolate because of its
inhabitants
, as
the fruit of their deeds
.
Notwithstanding
the land
shall
be
desolate because of them
that
dwell
therein
, for
the fruit of their doings
.
Shepherd
with
Your
staff
Your
people, the flock of Your
inheritance.
They
live
alone
in a
woodland
, surrounded
by
pastures.
Let them graze
in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
Feed
thy
people with
thy
rod
, the flock of thine
heritage,
which
dwell
solitarily
in the
wood
, in
the
midst
of
Carmel:
let them feed
in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
As
in
the days when
you
came
out of Egypt ,
I
will show
My
wonders
.
According
to
the days of
thy
coming
out of the
land
of
Egypt will I
shew
unto
him
marvellous
things
.
Nations will
see and be ashamed,
deprived
of
all their might .
They will
put
their hands
over
their mouths
, and
their ears will
become
deaf.
The
nations shall
see and be confounded
at
all their might :
they shall
lay
their hand
upon
their mouth
, their ears shall
be
deaf.
They will
lick the dust like a snake
, like
reptiles
slithering
on
the
ground.
They will
crawl
from
their holes in
the presence
of the LORD our God ;
they
will
tremble
in
fear of You
.
They shall
lick the dust like a serpent
, they shall
move
out
of
their holes like
worms
of
the earth:
they
shall
be
afraid
of the LORD our God ,
and
shall
fear because
of thee
.
Who is a God like You
, who
pardons
iniquity and passes
over
the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance—
who
does
not retain
His anger forever
, because He delights
in loving
devotion?
Who is a God like unto
thee
, that
pardoneth
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 on
us; He will vanquish
our iniquities .
You
will
cast out
all our
sins into the depths of the sea.
He will turn
again ,
he
will
have compassion upon
us; he will subdue
our iniquities ;
and
thou
wilt
cast all their
sins into the depths of the sea.
You
will
show
faithfulness
to Jacob and loving
devotion
to Abraham, as
You
swore
to
our fathers from the days of old.
Thou
wilt
perform
the
truth
to Jacob ,
and the
mercy
to Abraham, which
thou
hast
sworn
unto
our fathers from the days of old.
