Ecclesiastes 4:1King James Bible with Strong NumbersH7725So I returned[H8804] H7200, and considered[H8799] H6217all the oppressionsH6213that are done[H8737] H8121under the sunH1832: and behold the tearsH6231of such as were oppressed[H8803] H5162, and they had no comforter[H8764] H3027; and on the sideH6231of their oppressors[H8802] H3581there was powerH5162; but they had no comforter[H8764] . See the chapter |
H7200If thou seest[H8799] H6233the oppressionH7326of the poor[H8802] H1499, and violentH4941perverting of judgmentH6664and justiceH4082in a provinceH8539, marvel[H8799] H2656not at the matterH1364: for he that is higherH1364than the highestH8104regardeth[H8802] H1364; and there be higherH5921than they.
G2400Behold[G5628] G3408, the hireG2040of the labourersG3588whoG270have reaped down[G5660] G5216yourG5561fieldsG3588, whichG575is ofG5216youG650kept back by fraud[G5772] G2896, crieth[G5719] G2532: andG995the criesG2325of them which have reaped[G5660] G1525are entered[G5754] G1519intoG3775the earsG2962of the LordG4519of sabaoth.
H7126And I will come near[H8804] H4941to you to judgmentH4116; and I will be a swift[H8764] H5707witnessH3784against the sorcerers[H8764] H5003, and against the adulterers[H8764] H8267, and against falseH7650swearers[H8737] H6231, and against those that oppress[H8802] H7916the hirelingH7939in his wagesH490, the widowH3490, and the fatherlessH5186, and that turn aside[H8688] H1616the strangerH3372from his right, and fear[H8804] H559not me, saith[H8804] H3068the LORDH6635of hosts.
H7760But I will put[H8804] H3027it into the handH3013of them that afflict[H8688] H559thee; which have said[H8804] H5315to thy soulH7812, Bow down[H8798] H5674, that we may go over[H8799] H7760: and thou hast laid[H8799] H1460thy bodyH776as the groundH2351, and as the streetH5674, to them that went over[H8802] .
H5647Therefore shalt thou serve[H8804] H341thine enemies[H8802] H3068which the LORDH7971shall send[H8762] H7458against thee, in hungerH6772, and in thirstH5903, and in nakednessH2640, and in wantH5414of all things : and he shall put[H8804] H5923a yokeH1270of ironH6677upon thy neckH8045, until he have destroyed[H8687] thee.
H1058For these things I weep[H8802] H5869; mine eyeH5869, mine eyeH3381runneth down[H8802] H4325with waterH5162, because the comforter[H8764] H7725that should relieve[H8688] H5315my soulH7368is far[H8804] H1121from me: my childrenH8074are desolate[H8802] H341, because the enemy[H8802] H1396prevailed[H8804] .
H8085Publish[H8685] H759in the palacesH795at AshdodH759, and in the palacesH776in the landH4714of EgyptH559, and say[H8798] H622, Assemble[H8734] H2022yourselves upon the mountainsH8111of SamariaH7200, and behold[H8798] H7227the greatH4103tumultsH7130in the midstH6217thereof, and the oppressedH8432in the midst thereof.
