Their labors shall be multiplied after they hastened: I will not gather their libations of blood, and I will not lift up their names upon my lips.

For they will not understand for the doing of Jehovah, and for the work of his hands; he will destroy them and he will not build them up.

What the profit in my blood in my going down to the pit? shall the dust praise thee? shall it announce thy truth?

Shall I eat the flesh of the strong ones, and shall I drink the blood of goats?

Do Zion good in thy good will: thou wilt build the walls of Jerusalem.

The just one shall rejoice as seeing vengeance: he shall wash his footsteps in the blood of the unjust one.

So that thy foot shall shake in blood, the tongue of thy dogs from the enemies of him.

For God will save Zion, and he will build the cities of Judah, and they shall dwell there and inherit it

From oppression and from violence he will redeem their soul, and their blood shall be precious in his eyes.

And he turned to blood their rivers, and their flowings they shall not drink

And he will build his holy place as of buffaloes, as the earth he founded it forever.

They poured out their blood as water round about Jerusalem; and none burying.

Wherefore shall the nations say, Where is their God? He will make known among the nations before our eyes the vengeance of the blood of thy servants being poured out.

For I said, Mercy shall be built up forever: the heavens, thy faithfulness shall be prepared in them.

Even to forever I will prepare thy seed, and I built up to generation and generation thy throne, Silence.

They shall break in upon the soul of the just one, and they shall condemn innocent blood.

For Jehovah built Zion, he was seen in his glory

He turned their waters to blood, and he will slay their fish.

And they will pour out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and their daughters which they sacrificed to the images of Canaan: and the land will be polluted with bloods.

Jerusalem was built as a city, joined to it together.

Song of ascensions to Solomon. If Jehovah shall not build the house, they building it, in it labored in vain. If Jehovah shall not watch the city, he watching, watched in vain.
