and upon his kingdom
<04467>_,
<04467>_,
it with judgment
<04941>
<04941>
and with justice
<06666>
<06666>
from henceforth even for
<05704>
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
<05769>_.
The zeal
<07068>
<07068>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
this.<06635>
And all the people
<05971>
<05971>
[even] Ephraim
<0669>
<0669>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
<08111>_,
in the pride
<01346>
<01346>
and stoutness
<01433>
<01433>
of heart
<03824>_,
<03824>_,
The Syrians
<0758>
<0758>
before
<06924>_,
<06924>_,
and the Philistines
<06430>
<06430>
behind
<0268>_;
<0268>_;
Israel
<03478>
<03478>
with open mouth
<06310>_.
<06310>_.
For all this his anger
<0639>
<0639>
but his hand
<03027>
{open: Heb. whole}<03027>
Therefore the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
from Israel
<03478>
<03478>
head
<07218>
<07218>
and tail
<02180>_,
<02180>_,
branch
<03712>
<03712>
and rush
<0100>_,
<0100>_,
in one
<0259>
<0259>
day
<03117>_.
<03117>_.
The ancient
<02205>
<02205>
he
<01931>
<01931>
[is] the head
<07218>_;
<07218>_;
and the prophet
<05030>
<05030>
lies
<08267>_,
<08267>_,
he [is] the tail
<02180>_.
<02180>_.
of this people
<05971>
{the leaders: or, they that call them blessed} {led of: or, called blessed of} {destroyed: Heb. swallowed up}<05971>
Therefore the Lord
<0136>
<0136>
in their young men
<0970>_,
<0970>_,
on their fatherless
<03490>
<03490>
and widows
<0490>_:
<0490>_:
for every one [is] an hypocrite
<02611>
<02611>
and every mouth
<06310>
<06310>
folly
<05039>_.
<05039>_.
For all this his anger
<0639>
<0639>
but his hand
<03027>
{folly: or, villany}<03027>
For wickedness
<07564>
<07564>
as the fire
<0784>_:
<0784>_:
the briers
<08068>
<08068>
and thorns
<07898>_,
<07898>_,
in the thickets
<05442>
<05442>
of the forest
<03293>_,
<03293>_,
[like] the lifting up
<01348>
<01348>
of smoke
<06227>_.
<06227>_.
Through the wrath
<05678>
<05678>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
<06635>
is the land
<0776>
<0776>
and the people
<05971>
<05971>
shall be as the fuel
<03980>
<03980>
of the fire
<0784>_:
<0784>_:
no man
<0376>
<0376>
his brother

{fuel: Heb. meat}<0251>_.
