Isaiah 17:1-11

The burden
<04853>
of Damascus
<01834>_.
Behold, Damascus
<01834>
is taken away
<05493> (8716)
from [being] a city
<05892>_,
and it shall be a ruinous
<04654>
heap
<04596>_.
The cities
<05892>
of Aroer
<06177>
[are] forsaken
<05800> (8803)_:
they shall be for flocks
<05739>_,
which shall lie down
<07257> (8804)_,
and none shall make [them] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.
The fortress
<04013>
also shall cease
<07673> (8738)
from Ephraim
<0669>_,
and the kingdom
<04467>
from Damascus
<01834>_,
and the remnant
<07605>
of Syria
<0758>_:
they shall be as the glory
<03519>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
And in that day
<03117>
it shall come to pass, [that] the glory
<03519>
of Jacob
<03290>
shall be made thin
<01809> (8735)_,
and the fatness
<04924>
of his flesh
<01320>
shall wax lean
<07329> (8735)_.
And it shall be as when the harvestman
<07105>
gathereth
<0622> (8800)
the corn
<07054>_,
and reapeth
<07114> (8799)
the ears
<07641>
with his arm
<02220>_;
and it shall be as he that gathereth
<03950> (8764)
ears
<07641>
in the valley
<06010>
of Rephaim
<07497>_.
Yet gleaning grapes
<05955>
shall be left
<07604> (8738)
in it, as the shaking
<05363>
of an olive tree
<02132>_,
two
<08147>
[or] three
<07969>
berries
<01620>
in the top
<07218>
of the uppermost bough
<0534>_,
four
<0702>
[or] five
<02568>
in the outmost fruitful
<06509> (8802)
branches
<05585>
thereof, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
At that day
<03117>
shall a man
<0120>
look
<08159> (8799)
to his Maker
<06213> (8802)_,
and his eyes
<05869>
shall have respect
<07200> (8799)
to the Holy
<06918>
One of Israel
<03478>_.
And he shall not look
<08159> (8799)
to the altars
<04196>_,
the work
<04639>
of his hands
<03027>_,
neither shall respect
<07200> (8799)
[that] which his fingers
<0676>
have made
<06213> (8804)_,
either the groves
<0842>_,
or the images
<02553>_.
{images: or, sun images}
In that day
<03117>
shall his strong
<04581>
cities
<05892>
be as a forsaken
<05800> (8803)
bough
<02793>_,
and an uppermost branch
<0534>_,
which they left
<05800> (8804)
because
<06440>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
and there shall be desolation
<08077>_.
Because thou hast forgotten
<07911> (8804)
the God
<0430>
of thy salvation
<03468>_,
and hast not been mindful
<02142> (8804)
of the rock
<06697>
of thy strength
<04581>_,
therefore shalt thou plant
<05193> (8799)
pleasant
<05282>
plants
<05194>_,
and shalt set
<02232> (8799)
it with strange
<02114> (8801)
slips
<02156>_:
In the day
<03117>
shalt thou make thy plant
<05194>
to grow
<07735> (8770)_,
and in the morning
<01242>
shalt thou make thy seed
<02233>
to flourish
<06524> (8686)_:
[but] the harvest
<07105>
[shall be] a heap
<05067>
in the day
<03117>
of grief
<02470> (8737)
and of desperate
<0605> (8803)
sorrow
<03511>_.
{a heap...: or, removed in the day of inheritance, and there shall be deadly sorrow}
