Thematic Bible: Strong


Thematic Bible



Issachar is a strong donkey
lying down between the saddlebags.





All your fortresses are fig trees
with figs that ripened first;
when shaken, they fall—
right into the mouth of the eater!


Yet I destroyed the Amorite as Israel advanced;
his height was like the cedars,
and he was as sturdy as the oaks;
I destroyed his fruit above and his roots beneath.


Where there are no oxen, the feeding trough is empty,
but an abundant harvest comes
through the strength of an ox.

Our cattle will be well fed.
There will be no breach in the walls,
no going into captivity,
and no cry of lament in our public squares.



with a strong hand and outstretched arm.
        His love is eternal.



with a strong hand and outstretched arm.
        His love is eternal.


Wail, ships of Tarshish,
because your fortress is destroyed!
