And all

O Yahweh though thy hand be lifted up, - yet do they not see, Would they might see - and turn pale at a peoples zeal, - Surely, the fire of thine enemies, must consume them!

Then said Micaiah, Lo! thou art about to see, on that day, - when thou enterest a chamber within a chamber, to hide thyself.

Shall, GOD, reserve, for his children, his sorrow? Let him recompense him so that he may know it;

Lo! the earthworks! they have entered the city, to capture it, And the city, hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans, who are fighting against it, because of the sword and the famine and the pestilence, - And so what thou didst speak, hath come to pass, And there thou art looking on!

Yet, the fugitives of the sword, shall certainly return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah men easily counted, - that all the remnant of Judah who are entering Egypt to sojourn there, may know, whose word, shall stand, mine or theirs!

And mine eye shall not shield thee Neither will I have pity, - According to thy ways, tunic thee will I render, And thine abominations, in thy midst shall be found, So shall ye know that I, Yahweh am smiting.

Thus will I execute judgments on Egypt; And they shall know that l am Yahweh.

But when it cometh Lo! it is coming, Then shall they know that a prophet hath been in their midst.

Even ephraim

Even though the head of Ephraim is Samaria, And, the head of Samaria, is the son of Remaliah. If ye trust not, Surely, ye cannot be trusted!

Is not, Calno, like Carchemish? Is not, Hamath, like Arpad? Is not, Samaria, like Damascus?

In the pride

Hearken unto me, Ye valiant of heart, - Who are far away from righteousness:

Because I knew that - Obstinate, thou wast, - And, a sinew of iron, was thy neck, And thy brow, brazen,

Before grievous injury, pride! and, before a fall, haughtiness of spirit!

Stout against me, have been your words, saith Yahweh, - and yet ye say, What have we spoken, one to another, against thee?

For lo! the day, cometh, that burneth as a furnace, - and, all the proud and everyone who worketh lawlessness, shall be, stubble, and the day that cometh, shall consume them utterly, saith Yahweh of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

In like manner, ye younger men - submit yourselves unto elders; - All, however, one towards another, gird on humility; because, God, against the haughty, arrayeth himself, whereas, unto the lowly, he giveth favour.

General references

In that day, shall his fortified cities become Like a neglected bough and a topmost branch, Which they neglected because of the sons of Israel, - So shall there be desolation.
