Thematic Bible




“Issachar is [like] a strong-boned donkey,
Crouching down between the sheepfolds.






All your fortresses are [nothing but] fig trees with ripe figs—
When shaken they fall into the mouth of the eater.



“Yet it was I [not the false gods] who destroyed the Amorite before them,
Though his height was like the height of the cedars,
And he was as strong as the oaks;
I even destroyed his fruit above and his root below.



Where there are no oxen, the manger is clean,
But much revenue [because of good crops] comes by the strength of the ox.


Let our cattle bear
Without mishap and without loss,
And let there be no outcry in our streets!




With a strong hand and with an outstretched arm,
For His lovingkindness endures forever;




With a strong hand and with an outstretched arm,
For His lovingkindness endures forever;



Wail, O ships of Tarshish,
For your stronghold [of Tyre] is destroyed.
