[him] with the rod.<br />

32 And wherever shall pass the appointed staff, which Jehovah shall lay upon him, it<br />

shall be with tambours and harps; and with tumultuous battles will he fight with it.<br />

33 For Topheth is prepared of old; for the king also it is prepared: he hath made it deep<br />

and large; its pile is fire and much wood; the breath of Jehovah, like a stream of<br />

brimstone, doth kindle it.<br />

Chapter 31<br />

1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, and depend on horses, and confide in<br />

chariots because [they are] many, and in horsemen because they are very strong; and<br />

who look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek Jehovah!<br />

2 But he also is wise, and he bringeth evil, and recalleth not his words; and he will arise<br />

against the house of evildoers, and against the help of workers of iniquity.<br />

3 And the Egyptians are men, and not ùGod, and their horses flesh, and not spirit; and<br />

Jehovah shall stretch forth his hand, and he that helpeth shall stumble, and he that is<br />

helped shall fall, and they all shall perish together.<br />

4 For thus hath Jehovah said unto me: Like as the lion and the young lion growling over<br />

his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, is not afraid of their<br />

voice, nor giveth way before the multitude of them; so will Jehovah of hosts come down<br />

to war upon mount Zion, and on the hill thereof.<br />

5 As birds with outstretched wings, so will Jehovah of hosts cover Jerusalem; covering,<br />

he will also deliver, passing over, he will rescue [it].<br />

6 Turn unto him from whom ye have deeply revolted, ye children of Israel;<br />

7 for in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which<br />

your sinful hands have made unto you.<br />

8 And Asshur shall fall by the sword, not of a great man; and the sword, not of a mean<br />

man, shall devour him: and he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall<br />

become tributary;<br />

9 and for fear, he shall pass over to his rock, and his princes shall be afraid of the<br />

banner, saith Jehovah, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.<br />

Chapter 32<br />

1 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment.<br />

2 And a man shall be as a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the storm; as<br />

brooks of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land.<br />

3 And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall<br />

hearken;<br />

4 and the heart of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the<br />

stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.<br />

5 The vile man shall be no more called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful:<br />

6 for the vile man will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise<br />

hypocrisy, and to utter error against Jehovah, to make empty the soul of the hungry,<br />

and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.<br />

7 The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the<br />

meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.<br />

8 But the noble deviseth noble things; and to noble things doth he stand.<br />

9 Rise up, ye women that are at ease, hear my voice; ye careless daughters, give ear unto<br />

my speech.<br />

10 In a year and [some] days shall ye be troubled, ye careless women; for the vintage<br />

shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.<br />

11 Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones; strip you, and<br />

make you bare, and gird [sackcloth] on your loins!
