 Praise ye the L
ORD
. Praise ye the name of the L
ORD
; praise
him,
O ye servants of the L
ORD
.
2
 Ye that stand in the house of the L
ORD
, in the courts of the house of our God,
3
 Praise the L
ORD
; for the L
ORD
is
good: sing praises unto his name; for
it is
pleasant.
4
 For the L
ORD
hath chosen Jacob unto himself,
and
Israel for his peculiar treasure.
5
 For I know that the Lord
is
great, and
that
our L
ORD
is
above all gods.
6
 Whatsoever the L
ORD
pleased,
that
did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.
7
 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.
8
 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.
9
Â
Who
sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
10
 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;
11
 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:
12
 And gave their land
for
an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.
13
 Thy name, O L
ORD
,
endureth
for ever;
and
thy memorial, O L
ORD
, throughout all generations.
14
 For the L
ORD
will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.
15
 The idols of the heathen
are
silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
16
 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
17
 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there
any
breath in their mouths.
18
 They that make them are like unto them:
so is
every one that trusteth in them.
19
 Bless the L
ORD
, O house of Israel: bless the L
ORD
, O house of Aaron:
20
 Bless the L
ORD
, O house of Levi: ye that fear the L
ORD
, bless the L
ORD
.
21
 Blessed be the L
ORD
out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the L
ORD
.
5
 Every word of God
is
pure: he
is
a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
6
 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
1
 The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
2
 God
is
jealous, and the L
ORD
revengeth; the L
ORD
revengeth, and
is
furious; the L
ORD
will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth
wrath
for his enemies.
3
 The L
ORD
is
slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit
the wicked:
the L
ORD
hath
his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds
are
the dust of his feet.
4
 He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
5
 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
6
 Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.
7
 The L
ORD
is
good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.
8
 But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
9
 What do ye imagine against the L
ORD
? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
10
 For while
they be
folden together
as
thorns, and while they are drunken
as
drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
11
 There is
one
come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the L
ORD
, a wicked counsellor.
12
 Thus saith the L
ORD
; Though
they be
quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
13
 For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.
14
 And the L
ORD
hath given a commandment concerning thee,
that
no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile.
15
 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
2:
1
 He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face: keep the munition, watch the way, make
thy
loins strong, fortify
thy
power mightily.
2
 For the L
ORD
hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches.
3
 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men
are
in scarlet: the chariots
shall be
with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.
4
 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
5
 He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.
6
 The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be dissolved.
7
 And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maids shall lead
her
as with the voice of doves, tabering upon their breasts.
8
 But Nineveh
is
of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand,
shall they cry;
but none shall look back.
9
 Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for
there is
none end of the store
and
glory out of all the pleasant furniture.
10
 She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain
is
in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.
11
 Where
is
the dwelling of the lions, and the feedingplace of the young lions, where the lion,
even
the old lion, walked,
and
the lion's whelp, and none made
them
afraid?
12
 The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with ravin.
13
 Behold, I
am
against thee, saith the L
ORD
of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
3:
1
 Woe to the bloody city! it
is
all full of lies
and
robbery; the prey departeth not;
2
 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.
3
 The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and
there is
a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and
there is
none end of
their
corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:
4
 Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts.
5
 Behold, I
am
against thee, saith the L
ORD
of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.
6
 And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock.
7
 And it shall come to pass,
that
all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?
8
 Art thou better than populous No, that was situate among the rivers,
that had
the waters round about it, whose rampart
was
the sea,
and
her wall
was
from the sea?
9
 Ethiopia and Egypt
were
her strength, and
it was
infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers.
10
 Yet
was
she carried away, she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets: and they cast lots for her honourable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.
11
 Thou also shalt be drunken: thou shalt be hid, thou also shalt seek strength because of the enemy.
12
 All thy strong holds
shall be like
fig trees with the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.
13
 Behold, thy people in the midst of thee
are
women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies: the fire shall devour thy bars.
14
 Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the mortar, make strong the brickkiln.
15
 There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts.
16
 Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and fleeth away.
17
 Thy crowned
are
as the locusts, and thy captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day,
but
when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they
are.
18
 Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria: thy nobles shall dwell
in the dust:
thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth
them.
19
Â
There is
no healing of thy bruise; thy wound is grievous: all that hear the bruit of thee shall clap the hands over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?
1
 And when he [the Lamb] had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
2
 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
3
 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer
it
with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
4
 And the smoke of the incense,
which came
with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.
5
 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast
it
into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6
 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
7
 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8
 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
9
 and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
10
 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
11
 and the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
12
 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
13
 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
