[1] I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said, “Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake. Break them in pieces on the head of all of them. I will kill the last of them with the sword. Not one of them will flee away. Not one of them will escape. [2] Though they dig into Sheol,ⓘ there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down. [3] Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them. [4] Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good. [5] For the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt. [6] It is he who builds his rooms in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth—Yahweh is his name. [7] Are you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says Yahweh. “Haven’t I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? [8] Behold, the eyes of the Lord Yahweh are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” says Yahweh. [9] “For behold, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth. [10] All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil won’t overtake nor meet us.’ [11] In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old, [12] that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” says Yahweh who does this.
 [13] “Behold, the days come,” says Yahweh,
“that the plowman shall overtake the reaper,
and the one treading grapes him who sows seed;
and sweet wine will drip from the mountains,
and flow from the hills.
 [14] I will bring my people Israel back from captivity,
and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them;
and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them.
They shall also make gardens,
and eat their fruit.
 [15] I will plant them on their land,
and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them,”
says Yahweh your God.

King James Version
[1] I sawH7200(QalPerf) the LordH136 standingH5324(NiphPtc) upon the altar:H4196 and he said,H559(QalImpf) SmiteH5221(HiphImpv) the lintel of the door,H3730 that the postsH5592 may shake:H7493(QalImpf) and cutH1214(QalImpv) them in the head,H7218 all of them; and I will slayH2026(QalImpf) the lastH319 of them with the sword:H2719 he that fleethH5127(QalPtc) of them shall not flee away,H5127(QalImpf) and he that escapethH6412 of them shall not be delivered.H4422(NiphImpf) [2] Though they digH2864(QalImpf) into hell,H7585 thence shall mine handH3027 takeH3947(QalImpf) them; though they climb upH5927(QalImpf) to heaven,H8064 thence will I bring them down:H3381(HiphImpf) [3] And though they hideH2244(NiphImpf) themselves in the topH7218 of Carmel,H3760 I will searchH2664(PielImpf) and take them outH3947(QalPerf) thence; and though they be hidH5641(NiphImpf) from my sightH5869 in the bottomH7172 of the sea,H3220 thence will I commandH6680(PielImpf) the serpent,H5175 and he shall biteH5391(QalPerf) them: [4] And though they goH3212(QalImpf) into captivityH7628 beforeH6440 their enemies,H341(QalActPtc) thence will I commandH6680(PielImpf) the sword,H2719 and it shall slayH2026(QalPerf) them: and I will setH7760(QalPerf) mine eyesH5869 upon them for evil,H7451 and not for good.H2896 [5] And the LordH136 GodH3069 of hostsH6635 [is] he that touchethH5060(QalActPtc) the land,H776 and it shall melt,H4127(QalImpf) and all that dwellH3427(QalActPtc) therein shall mourn:H56(QalPerf) and it shall rise upH5927(QalPerf) wholly like a flood;H2975 and shall be drowned,H8257(QalPerf) as [by] the floodH2975 of Egypt.H4714 [6] [It is] he that buildethH1129(QalActPtc) his storiesH4609 in the heaven,H8064 and hath foundedH3245(QalPerf) his troopH92 in the earth;H776 he that callethH7121(QalActPtc) for the watersH4325 of the sea,H3220 and poureth them outH8210(QalImpf) upon the faceH6440 of the earth:H776 The LordH3068 [is] his name.H8034 [7] [Are] ye not as childrenH1121 of the EthiopiansH3569 unto me, O childrenH1121 of Israel?H3478 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord.H3068 Have not I brought upH5927(HiphPerf) IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of Egypt?H4714 and the PhilistinesH6430 from Caphtor,H3731 and the SyriansH758 from Kir?H7024 [8] Behold, the eyesH5869 of the LordH136 GodH3069 [are] upon the sinfulH2403 kingdom,H4467 and I will destroyH8045(HiphPerf) it from off the faceH6440 of the earth;H127 savingH657 that I will not utterlyH8045(HiphInf) destroyH8045(HiphImpf) the houseH1004 of Jacob,H3290 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord.H3068 [9] For, lo, I will command,H6680(PielPtc) and I will siftH5128(HiphPerf) the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 among all nations,H1471 like as [corn] is siftedH5128(NiphImpf) in a sieve,H3531 yet shall not the least grainH6872 fallH5307(QalImpf) upon the earth.H776 [10] All the sinnersH2400 of my peopleH5971 shall dieH4191(QalImpf) by the sword,H2719 which say,H559(QalActPtc) The evilH7451 shall not overtakeH5066(HiphImpf) nor preventH6923(HiphImpf) us. [11] In that dayH3117 will I raise upH6965(HiphImpf) the tabernacleH5521 of DavidH1732 that is fallen,H5307(QalActPtc) and close upH1443(QalPerf) the breachesH6556 thereof; and I will raise upH6965(HiphImpf) his ruins,H2034 and I will buildH1129(QalPerf) it as in the daysH3117 of old:H5769 [12] That they may possessH3423(QalImpf) the remnantH7611 of Edom,H123 and of all the heathen,H1471 which are calledH7121(NiphPerf) by my name,H8034 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the LordH3068 that doethH6213(QalActPtc) this. [13] Behold, the daysH3117 come,H935(QalActPtc) saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord,H3068 that the plowmanH2790(QalActPtc) shall overtakeH5066(NiphPerf) the reaper,H7114(QalActPtc) and the treaderH1869(QalActPtc) of grapesH6025 him that sowethH4900(QalActPtc) seed;H2233 and the mountainsH2022 shall dropH5197(HiphPerf) sweet wine,H6071 and all the hillsH1389 shall melt.H4127(HiplImpf) [14] And I will bring againH7725(QalPerf) the captivityH7622 of my peopleH5971 of Israel,H3478 and they shall buildH1129(QalPerf) the wasteH8074(NiphPtc) cities,H5892 and inhabitH3427(QalPerf) [them]; and they shall plantH5193(QalPerf) vineyards,H3754 and drinkH8354(QalPerf) the wineH3196 thereof; they shall also makeH6213(QalPerf) gardens,H1593 and eatH398(QalPerf) the fruitH6529 of them. [15] And I will plantH5193(QalPerf) them upon their land,H127 and they shall no more be pulled upH5428(NiphImpf) out of their landH127 which I have givenH5414(QalPerf) them, saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH3068 thy God.H430
