[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.

The Lord at the Altar

[1] I saw H7200 H853 the Lord H136 standing H5324 upon H5921 the altar: H4196 and he said, H559 Smite H5221 the lintel§ of the door, H3730 that the posts H5592 may shake: H7493 and cut H1214 them§ in the head, H7218 all H3605 of them; and I will slay H2026 the last H319 of them with the sword: H2719 he that fleeth H5127 of them shall not flee away, H5127 and he that escapeth H6412 of them shall not be delivered. H4422 [2] Though they dig H2864 into hell, H7585 thence shall mine hand H3027 take H3947 them; though they climb up H5927 to heaven, H8064 thence will I bring them down: H3381 [3] and though they hide H2244 themselves in the top H7218 of Carmel, H3760 I will search H2664 and take them out H3947 thence; and though they be hid H5641 from my sight H5869 in the bottom H7172 of the sea, H3220 thence will I command H6680 H853 the serpent, H5175 and he shall bite H5391 them: [4] and though they go H3212 into captivity H7628 before H6440 their enemies, H341 thence will I command H6680 H853 the sword, H2719 and it shall slay H2026 them: and I will set H7760 mine eyes H5869 upon H5921 them for evil, H7451 and not for good. H2896 [5] And the Lord H136 God H3069 of hosts H6635 is he that toucheth H5060 the land, H776 and it shall melt, H4127 and all that dwell H3427 therein shall mourn: H56 and it shall rise up H5927 wholly like a flood; H2975 and shall be drowned, H8257 as by the flood H2975 of Egypt. H4714 [6] It is he that buildeth H1129 his stories H4609§ in the heaven, H8064 and hath founded H3245 his troop H92 in the earth; H776 he that calleth H7121 for the waters H4325 of the sea, H3220 and poureth them out H8210 upon H5921 the face H6440 of the earth: H776 The Lord H3068 is his name. H8034 [7] Are ye not as children H1121 of the Ethiopians H3569 unto me, O children H1121 of Israel? H3478 saith H5002 the Lord. H3068 Have H5927 not H3808 I brought up H5927 Israel H3478 out of the land H776 of Egypt? H4714 and the Philistines H6430 from Caphtor, H3731 and the Syrians H758 from Kir? H7024 [8] Behold, the eyes H5869 of the Lord H136 God H3069 are upon the sinful H2403 kingdom, H4467 and I will destroy H8045 it from off the face H6440 of the earth; H127 saving H657 that I will not utterly H8045 destroy H8045 H853 the house H1004 of Jacob, H3290 saith H5002 the Lord. H3068 [9] For, lo, I will command, H6680 and I will sift H5128§ H853 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 among all nations, H1471 like as corn is sifted H5128 in a sieve, H3531 yet shall not the least grain H6872§ fall H5307 upon the earth. H776 [10] All H3605 the sinners H2400 of my people H5971 shall die H4191 by the sword, H2719 which say, H559 The evil H7451 shall H5066 not H3808 overtake H5066 nor prevent H6923 us. [11] In that day H3117 will I raise up H6965 H853 the tabernacle H5521 of David H1732 that is fallen, H5307 and close up H1443 H853 the breaches H6556§ thereof; and I will raise up H6965 his ruins, H2034 and I will build H1129 it as in the days H3117 of old: H5769 [12] that they may possess H3423 H853 the remnant H7611 of Edom, H123 and of all the heathen, H1471 which H834 are called H7121 by my name, H8034§ saith H5002 the Lord H3068 that doeth H6213 this. [13] Behold, the days H3117 come, H935 saith H5002 the Lord, H3068 that the plowman H2790 shall overtake H5066 the reaper, H7114 and the treader H1869 of grapes H6025 him that soweth H4900§ seed; H2233 and the mountains H2022 shall drop H5197 sweet wine, H6071§ and all the hills H1389 shall melt. H4127 [14] And I will bring again H7725 H853 the captivity H7622 of my people H5971 of Israel, H3478 and they shall build H1129 the waste H8074 cities, H5892 and inhabit H3427 them; and they shall plant H5193 vineyards, H3754 and drink H8354 H853 the wine H3196 thereof; they shall also make H6213 gardens, H1593 and eat H398 H853 the fruit H6529 of them. [15] And I will plant H5193 them upon their land, H127 and they shall no more be pulled up H5428 out of their land H127 which H834 I have given H5414 them, saith H559 the Lord H3068 thy God. H430
