00:00.910 --> 00:01.850
Chapter 10.

00:02.950 --> 00:07.610
Woe unto them that decree unrighteous
decrees, and that write grievousness which

00:07.610 --> 00:12.470
they have prescribed, to turn aside the
needy from judgment, and to take away the

00:12.470 --> 00:16.070
right from the poor of my people,
that widows may be their prey,

00:16.350 --> 00:18.370
and that they may rob the fatherless.

00:19.070 --> 00:23.170
And what will ye do in the day of
visitation, and in the desolation which

00:23.170 --> 00:24.210
shall come from far?

00:24.470 --> 00:26.210
To whom will ye flee for help?

00:26.650 --> 00:28.430
And where will ye leave your glory?

00:28.430 --> 00:33.470
Without me they shall bow down under the
prisoners, and they shall fall under the

00:33.470 --> 00:33.870
slain.

00:34.430 --> 00:39.590
For all this his anger is not turned away,
but his hand is stretched out still.

00:40.430 --> 00:44.710
O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger,
and the staff in their hand is mine

00:44.710 --> 00:45.450
indignation.

00:45.950 --> 00:50.110
I will send him against an hypocritical
nation, and against the people of my wrath

00:50.110 --> 00:55.090
will I give him a charge, to take the
spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread

00:55.090 --> 00:56.910
them down like the mire of the streets.

00:57.590 --> 01:02.910
Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth
his heart think so, but it is in his heart

01:02.910 --> 01:05.030
to destroy and cut off nations,
not a few.

01:05.910 --> 01:09.370
For he saith, Are not my princes
altogether kings?

01:09.850 --> 01:12.070
Is not Calno as Carchemish?

01:12.290 --> 01:14.250
Is not Hemeth as Arpad?

01:14.610 --> 01:16.330
Is not Syria as Damascus?

01:16.650 --> 01:21.290
As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the
idols, and whose graven images did excel

01:21.290 --> 01:26.450
them of Jerusalem and of Samaria,
shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria

01:26.450 --> 01:30.230
and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her
idols?

01:31.030 --> 01:34.930
Wherefore it shall come to pass,
that when the Lord hath performed his

01:34.930 --> 01:40.390
whole work upon Mount Zion and on
Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the

01:40.390 --> 01:44.770
stout heart of the king of Assyria,
and the glory of his high looks.

01:46.090 --> 01:51.550
For he saith, By the strength of my hand I
have done it, and by my wisdom.

01:52.190 --> 01:56.930
For I am prudent, and I have removed the
bounds of the people, and have robbed

01:56.930 --> 02:00.770
their treasures, and I have put down the
inhabitants like a valiant man.

02:01.770 --> 02:05.270
And my hand hath found as a nest the
riches of the people.

02:06.090 --> 02:10.470
And as one gathereth eggs that are left,
have I gathered all the earth.

02:11.150 --> 02:14.910
And there was none that moved the wing,
or opened the mouth, or peeped.

02:15.830 --> 02:19.350
Shall the axe boast itself against him
that heweth therewith?

02:19.350 --> 02:23.290
Or shall the saw magnify itself against
him that shaketh it?

02:23.810 --> 02:27.530
As if the rod should shake itself against
them that lift it up?

02:27.970 --> 02:32.250
Or as if the staff should lift up itself
as if it were no wood?

02:32.810 --> 02:38.430
Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of
hosts, send among his fat ones leanness,

02:38.770 --> 02:42.750
and under his glory he shall kindle a
burning like the burning of a fire.

02:43.230 --> 02:48.510
And the light of Israel shall be for a
fire, and his holy one for a flame.

02:49.210 --> 02:53.910
And it shall burn and devour his thorns
and his briars in one day.

02:54.610 --> 03:00.210
And shall consume the glory of his forest,
and of his fruitful field, both soul and

03:00.210 --> 03:00.610
body.

03:01.190 --> 03:03.890
And they shall be as when a
standard-bearer fainteth.

03:04.410 --> 03:09.570
And the rest of the trees of his forest
shall be few, that a child may write them.

03:09.970 --> 03:15.330
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that the remnant of Israel, and such as

03:15.330 --> 03:19.630
are escaped of the house of Jacob,
shall no more again stay upon him that

03:19.630 --> 03:25.030
smote them, but shall stay upon the Lord,
the holy one of Israel, in truth.

03:25.950 --> 03:31.150
The remnant shall return, even the remnant
of Jacob, unto the mighty God.

03:31.890 --> 03:36.670
For though thy people, Israel,
be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant

03:36.670 --> 03:37.810
of them shall return.

03:38.530 --> 03:41.470
The consumption decreed shall overflow
with righteousness.

03:42.490 --> 03:48.110
For the Lord God of hosts shall make a
consumption, even determined, in the midst

03:48.110 --> 03:49.030
of all the land.

03:49.850 --> 03:55.770
Therefore thus saith the Lord God of
hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion,

03:56.310 --> 03:58.230
be not afraid of the Assyrian.

03:58.890 --> 04:02.770
He shall smite thee with a rod,
and shall lift up his staff against thee,

04:03.110 --> 04:04.310
after the manner of Egypt.

04:05.070 --> 04:10.650
For yet a very little while, and the
indignation shall cease, and mine anger in

04:10.650 --> 04:11.290
their destruction.

04:12.090 --> 04:15.850
And the Lord of hosts shall stir up a
scourge for him, according to the

04:15.850 --> 04:18.530
slaughter of Midian, at the rock of Oreb.

04:18.910 --> 04:23.550
And as his rod was upon the sea,
so shall he lift it up after the manner of

04:23.550 --> 04:23.830
Egypt.

04:24.610 --> 04:29.130
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that his burden shall be taken away from

04:29.130 --> 04:34.050
off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off
thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed

04:34.050 --> 04:35.230
because of the anointing.

04:35.230 --> 04:36.670
He is come to Aeth.

04:37.050 --> 04:38.170
He is passed to Migron.

04:38.570 --> 04:40.570
At Mikmash he hath laid up his carriages.

04:41.190 --> 04:42.750
They are gone over the passage.

04:43.350 --> 04:45.270
They have taken up their lodging at Geba.

04:45.950 --> 04:47.030
Rhema is afraid.

04:47.870 --> 04:49.290
Gibeah of Saul is fled.

04:50.130 --> 04:52.170
Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Galim.

04:52.850 --> 04:54.410
Cause it to be heard unto Laish.

04:55.270 --> 04:56.510
O poor Anathoth!

04:57.230 --> 04:58.550
Madmina is removed.

04:59.090 --> 05:02.010
The inhabitants of Gibim gather themselves
to flee.

05:02.650 --> 05:05.430
As yet shall he remain at Nob that day.

05:06.210 --> 05:10.810
He shall shake his hand against the mount
of the daughter of Zion, the hill of

05:10.810 --> 05:11.250
Jerusalem.

05:12.570 --> 05:16.710
Behold the Lord, the Lord of hosts,
shall lop the bow with terror,

05:17.070 --> 05:21.690
and the high ones of stature shall be hewn
down, and the haughty shall be humbled.

05:22.510 --> 05:27.030
And he shall cut down the thickets of the
forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall

05:27.030 --> 05:27.930
by a mighty one.
