thou hast stricken5221 them, but they have not grieved2342; thou hast consumed3615 them, {but} they have refused3985 to receive3947 correction4148: they have made their faces6440 harder2388 than a rock5553; they have refused3985 to return7725. 5:4 Therefore I said0559, Surely these {are} poor1800; they are foolish2973: for they know3045 not the way1870 of the LORD3068, {nor} the judgment4941 of their God0430. 5:5 I will get3212 me unto the great men1419, and will speak1696 unto them; for they have known3045 the way1870 of the LORD3068, {and} the judgment4941 of their God0430: but these have altogether3162 broken7665 the yoke5923, {and} burst5423 the bonds4147. 5:6 Wherefore a lion0738 out of the forest3293 shall slay5221 them, {and} a wolf2061 of the evenings6160 shall spoil7703 them, a leopard5246 shall watch8245 over their cities5892: every one that goeth out3318 thence shall2007 be torn in pieces2963: because their transgressions6588 are many7231, {and} their backslidings4878 are increased6105. 5:7 How0335 shall I pardon5545 thee for this2063? thy children1121 have forsaken5800 me, and sworn7650 by {them that are} no3808 gods0430: when I had fed them to the full7650, they then committed adultery5003, and assembled themselves by troops1413 in the harlots'2181 houses1004. 5:8 They were {as} fed2109 horses5483 in the morning7904: every one0376 neighed6670 after his neighbour's7453 wife0802. 5:9 Shall I not visit6485 for these {things}? saith5002 the LORD3068: and shall not my soul5315 be avenged5358 on such a nation1471 as this? 5:10 Go ye up5927 upon her walls8284, and destroy7843; but make6213 not a full end3617: take away5493 her battlements5189; for they {are} not the LORD'S3068. 5:11 For the house1004 of Israel3478 and the house1004 of Judah3063 have dealt very0898 treacherously0898 against me, saith5002 the LORD3068. 5:12 They have belied3584 the LORD3068, and said0559, {It is} not he; neither shall evil7451 come0935 upon us; neither shall we see7200 sword2719 nor famine7458: 5:13 And the prophets5030 shall become wind7307, and the word1696 {is} not in them: thus shall it be done6213 unto them. 5:14 Wherefore thus saith0559 the LORD3068 God0430 of hosts6635, Because ye speak1696 this word1697, behold, I will make5414 my words1697 in thy mouth6310 fire0784, and this people5971 wood6086, and it shall devour0398 them. 5:15 Lo, I will bring0935 a nation1471 upon you from far4801, O house1004 of Israel3478, saith5002 the LORD3068: it {is} a mighty0386 nation1471, it {is} an ancient5769 nation1471, a nation1471 whose language3956 thou knowest3045 not, neither understandest8085 what they say1696. 5:16 Their quiver0827 {is} as an open6605 sepulchre6913, they {are} all mighty men1368. 5:17 And they shall eat up0398 thine harvest7105, and thy bread3899, {which} thy sons1121 and thy daughters1323 should eat0398: they shall eat up0398 thy flocks6629 and thine herds1241: they shall eat up0398 thy vines1612 and thy fig trees8384: they shall impoverish7567 thy fenced4013 cities5892, wherein thou2007 trustedst0982, with the sword2719. 5:18 Nevertheless in those days3117, saith5002 the LORD3068, I will not make6213 a full end3617 with you. 5:19 And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say0559, Wherefore8478-4100 doeth6213 the LORD3068 our God0430 all these {things} unto us? then shalt thou answer0559 them, Like as ye have forsaken5800 me, and served5647 strange5236 gods0430 in your land0776, so shall ye serve5647 strangers2114 in a land0776 {that is} not yours. 5:20 Declare5046 this in the house1004 of Jacob3290, and publish8085 it in Judah3063, saying0559, 5:21 Hear8085 now this, O foolish5530 people5971, and without understanding3820; which have eyes5869, and see7200 not; which have ears0241, and hear8085 not: 5:22 Fear3372 ye not me? saith5002 the LORD3068: will ye not tremble2342 at my presence6440, which have placed7760 the sand2344 {for} the bound1366 of the sea3220 by a perpetual5769 decree2706, that it cannot pass5674 it: and though the waves1530 thereof toss1607 themselves, yet can they not prevail3201; though they roar1993, yet can they not pass over5674 it? 5:23 But this people5971 hath a revolting5637 and a rebellious4784 heart3820; they are revolted5493 and gone3212. 5:24 Neither say0559 they in their heart3824, Let us now fear3372 the LORD3068 our God0430, that giveth5414 rain1653, both the former3138 and the latter4456, in his season6256: he reserveth8104 unto us the appointed2708 weeks7620 of the harvest7105. 5:25 Your iniquities5771 have turned away5186 these {things}, and your sins2403 have withholden4513 good2896 {things} from you. 5:26 For among my people5971 are found4672 wicked7563 {men}: they lay wait7789, as he that setteth7918 snares3353; they set5324 a trap4889, they catch3920 men0582. 5:27 As a cage3619 is full4392 of birds5775, so {are} their houses1004 full4392 of deceit4820: therefore they are become great1431, and waxen rich6238. 5:28 They are waxen fat8080, they shine6245: yea, they overpass5674 the deeds1697 of the wicked7451: they judge1777 not the cause1779, the cause of the fatherless3490, yet they prosper6743; and the right4941 of the needy0034 do they not judge8199. 5:29 Shall I not visit6485 for these {things}? saith5002 the LORD3068: shall not my soul5315 be avenged5358 on such a nation1471 as this? 5:30 A wonderful8047 and horrible thing8186 is committed1961 in the land0776; 5:31 The prophets5030 prophesy5012 falsely8267, and the priests3548 bear rule7287 by their means3027; and my people5971 love0157 {to have it} so: and what will ye do6213 in the end0319 thereof?
