O LORD, H3068 how long H5704 H575 shall I cry, H7768 and thou wilt not H3808 hear H8085 ! [even] cry out H2199 unto H413 thee [of] violence, H2555 and thou wilt not H3808 save H3467 !
Why H4100 dost thou show H7200 me iniquity, H205 and cause [me] to behold H5027 grievance H5999 ? for spoiling H7701 and violence H2555 [are] before H5048 me : and there are H1961 [that] raise up H5375 strife H7379 and contention. H4066
Therefore H5921 H3651 the law H8451 is slacked, H6313 and judgment H4941 doth never H3808 H5331 go forth: H3318 for H3588 the wicked H7563 doth compass about H3803 H853 the righteous; H6662 therefore H5921 H3651 wrong H6127 judgment H4941 proceedeth. H3318
Behold H7200 ye among the heathen, H1471 and regard, H5027 and wonder marvelously H8539 H8539 : for H3588 [I] will work H6466 a work H6467 in your days, H3117 [which] ye will not H3808 believe, H539 though H3588 it be told H5608 [you] .
For H3588 , lo, H2009 I raise up H6965 H853 the Chaldeans, H3778 [that] bitter H4751 and hasty H4116 nation, H1471 which shall march H1980 through the breadth H4800 of the land, H776 to possess H3423 the dwelling places H4908 [that] [are] not H3808 theirs.
Their horses H5483 also are swifter H7043 than the leopards H4480 H5246 , and are more fierce H2300 than the evening H6153 wolves H4480 H2061 : and their horsemen H6571 shall spread H6335 themselves , and their horsemen H6571 shall come H935 from far H4480 H7350 ; they shall fly H5774 as the eagle H5404 [that] hasteth H2363 to eat. H398
They shall come H935 all H3605 for violence: H2555 their faces H6440 shall sup up H4041 [as] the east wind, H6921 and they shall gather H622 the captivity H7628 as the sand. H2344
And they H1931 shall scoff H7046 at the kings, H4428 and the princes H7336 shall be a scorn H4890 unto them: they H1931 shall deride H7832 every H3605 stronghold; H4013 for they shall heap H6651 dust, H6083 and take H3920 it.
[Art] thou H859 not H3808 from everlasting H4480 H6924 , O LORD H3068 my God, H430 mine Holy One H6918 ? we shall not H3808 die. H4191 O LORD, H3068 thou hast ordained H7760 them for judgment; H4941 and , O mighty God, H6697 thou hast established H3245 them for correction. H3198
[Thou] [art] of purer H2889 eyes H5869 than to behold H4480 H7200 evil, H7451 and canst H3201 not H3808 look H5027 on H413 iniquity: H5999 wherefore H4100 lookest H5027 thou upon them that deal treacherously, H898 [and] holdest thy tongue H2790 when the wicked H7563 devoureth H1104 [the] [man] [that] [is] more righteous H6662 than H4480 he?
They take up H5927 all H3605 of them with the angle, H2443 they catch H1641 them in their net, H2764 and gather H622 them in their drag: H4365 therefore H5921 H3651 they rejoice H8055 and are glad. H1523
Therefore H5921 H3651 they sacrifice H2076 unto their net, H2764 and burn incense H6999 unto their drag; H4365 because H3588 by them H1992 their portion H2506 [is] fat, H8082 and their meat H3978 plenteous. H1277
