1 I saw [the] Lord standing on the altar and he said strike the capital so they may shake the thresholds and break off them on [the] head of all of them and posterity their by the sword I will kill not he will flee of them [one who] flees and not he will escape of them an escapee.

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 If they will dig in Sheol from there hand my it will take them and if they will go up the heavens from there I will bring down them. (Sheol h7585)

3 And if they will hide themselves on [the] top of Carmel from there I will search for [them] and I will take them and if they will hide themselves from before eyes my at [the] bottom of the sea from there I will command the snake and it will bite them.

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 And if they will go in captivity before enemies their from there I will command the sword and it will kill them and I will set eye my on them for evil and not for good.

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 And [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts who touches the earth and it melted and they mourn all [the] inhabitants in it and it rises like the River all of it and it sinks like [the] River (of Egypt *L(abh)*)

For the Lord, GOD of Hosts, 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.

7 ¿ Not like [the] sons of [the] Cushites [are] you to me O people of Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh ¿ not Israel did I bring up from [the] land of Egypt and [the] Philistines from Caphtor and Aram from Kir.

Are you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says the LORD. “Haven’t I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

8 Here! [the] eyes of - [the] Lord Yahweh [are] on the kingdom sinful and I will destroy it from on [the] surface of the ground nevertheless for not certainly I will destroy [the] house of Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh.

9 That here! I [am] about to command and I will shake among all the nations [the] house of Israel just as it is shaken in sieve and not it will fall a pebble [the] ground.

“For behold, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel amongst all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth.

10 By the sword they will die all [the] sinners of people my who say not it will bring near and it may meet through us the calamity.

All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil won’t overtake nor meet us.’

11 On the day that I will raise up [the] booth of David falling and I will wall up breaches their and ruins his I will raise up and I will rebuild it like [the] days of antiquity.

13 Here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and he will approach [the] plowman the reaper and [the] treader of grapes [the] sower of the seed and they will drip the mountains sweet wine and all the hills they will flow with [it].

“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that the ploughman 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 And I will turn back [the] captivity of people my Israel and they will rebuild cities desolated and they will dwell [in them] and they will plant vineyards and they will drink wine their and they will make gardens and they will eat fruit their.

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 And I will plant them on own land their and not they will be plucked up again from on land their which I have given to them he says Yahweh God your.

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 the LORD your God.
