1	Wo vnto them that decree wicked decrees, and write grieuous things,	Woe to those who decree iniquitous decrees, and the writers who keep writing oppression,	Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees,
2	To keepe backe ye poore from iudgement, and to take away the iudgement of the poore of my people, that widowes may be their pray, and that they may spoyle the fatherlesse.	to turn aside the needy from justice and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!	to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless.
3	What will ye doe nowe in the day of visitation, and of destruction, which shall come from farre? To whom will ye flee for helpe? And where will ye leaue your glorie?	What will you do on the day of punishment, in the ruin that will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help, and where will you leave your wealth?	What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches?
4	Without me euery one shall fall among them that are bound, and they shall fall downe among the slayne: yet for all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.	Nothing remains but to crouch among the prisoners or fall among the slain. For all this his anger has not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.	Nothing will remain but to cringe among the captives or fall among the slain. Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away, his hand is still upraised.
5	O Asshur, the rodde of my wrath: and the staffe in their hands is mine indignation.	Woe to Assyria, the rod of my anger; the staff in their hands is my fury!	“Woe to the Assyrian, the rod of my anger, in whose hand is the club of my wrath!
6	I will sende him to a dissembling nation, and I will giue him a charge against the people of my wrath to take the spoyle and to take the pray, and to treade them vnder feete like the mire in the streete.	Against a godless nation I send him, and against the people of my wrath I command him, to take spoil and seize plunder, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.	I send him against a godless nation, I dispatch him against a people who anger me, to seize loot and snatch plunder, and to trample them down like mud in the streets.
7	But he thinketh not so, neither doeth his heart esteeme it so: but he imagineth to destroy and to cut off not a fewe nations.	But he does not so intend, and his heart does not so think; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off nations not a few;	But this is not what he intends, this is not what he has in mind; his purpose is to destroy, to put an end to many nations.
8	For he sayeth, Are not my princes altogether Kings?	for he says: “Are not my commanders all kings?	Are not my commanders all kings?’ he says.
9	Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?	Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?	Has not Kalno fared like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad, and Samaria like Damascus?
10	Like as mine hand hath founde the kingdomes of the idoles, seeing their idoles were aboue Ierusalem, and aboue Samaria:	As my hand has reached to the kingdoms of the idols, whose carved images were greater than those of Jerusalem and Samaria,	As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols, kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria—
11	Shall not I, as I haue done to Samaria, and to the idoles thereof, so doe to Ierusalem and to the idoles thereof?	shall I not do to Jerusalem and her idols as I have done to Samaria and her images?”	shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?’”
12	But when the Lorde hath accomplished all his worke vpon mount Zion and Ierusalem, I will visite the fruite of the proude heart of the King of Asshur, and his glorious and proud lookes,	When the Lord has finished all his work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, he will punish the speech of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria and the boastful look in his eyes.	When the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the willful pride of his heart and the haughty look in his eyes.
13	Because he said, By ye power of mine owne hand haue I done it, and by my wisdome, because I am wise: therefore I haue remooued the borders of the people, and haue spoyled their treasures, and haue pulled downe the inhabitants like a valiant man.	For he says: “By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding; I remove the boundaries of peoples, and plunder their treasures; like a bull I bring down those who sit on thrones.	For he says: “’By the strength of my hand I have done this, and by my wisdom, because I have understanding. I removed the boundaries of nations, I plundered their treasures; like a mighty one I subdued their kings.
14	And mine hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people, and as one gathereth egges that are left, so haue I gathered all the earth: and there was none to mooue the wing or to open the mouth, or to whisper.	My hand has found like a nest the wealth of the peoples; and as one gathers eggs that have been forsaken, so I have gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved a wing or opened the mouth or chirped.”	As one reaches into a nest, so my hand reached for the wealth of the nations; as people gather abandoned eggs, so I gathered all the countries; not one flapped a wing, or opened its mouth to chirp.’”
15	Shall the axe boast it selfe against him that heweth therewith? or shall the sawe exalt it selfe against him that moueth it? as if the rod shoulde lift vp it selfe against him that taketh it vp, or the staffe should exalt it selfe, as it were no wood.	Shall the axe boast over him who hews with it, or the saw magnify itself against him who wields it? As if a rod should wield him who lifts it, or as if a staff should lift him who is not wood!	Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it, or the saw boast against the one who uses it? As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up, or a club brandish the one who is not wood!
16	Therefore shall the Lorde God of hostes send amog his fat men, leannes, & vnder his glorie he shall kindle a burning, like the burning of fire.	Therefore the Lord GOD of hosts will send wasting sickness among his stout warriors, and under his glory a burning will be kindled, like the burning of fire.	Therefore, the Lord, the LORD Almighty, will send a wasting disease upon his sturdy warriors; under his pomp a fire will be kindled like a blazing flame.
17	And the light of Israel shalbe as a fire, and the Holy one thereof as a flame, and it shall burne, and deuoure his thornes & his briers in one day:	The light of Israel will become a fire, and his Holy One a flame, and it will burn and devour his thorns and briers in one day.	The Light of Israel will become a fire, their Holy One a flame; in a single day it will burn and consume his thorns and his briers.
18	And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitfull fieldes both soule and flesh: and he shalbe as ye fainting of a standard bearer.	The glory of his forest and of his fruitful land the LORD will destroy, both soul and body, and it will be as when a sick man wastes away.	The splendor of his forests and fertile fields it will completely destroy, as when a sick person wastes away.
19	And the rest of the trees of his forest shalbe fewe, that a childe may tell them.	The remnant of the trees of his forest will be so few that a child can write them down.	And the remaining trees of his forests will be so few that a child could write them down.
20	And at that day shall the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Iaakob, stay no more vpon him that smote them, but shal stay vpon ye Lord, ye Holy one of Israel in trueth.	In that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no more lean on him who struck them, but will lean on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.	In that day the remnant of Israel, the survivors of Jacob, will no longer rely on him who struck them down but will truly rely on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.
21	The remnant shall returne, euen the remnant of Iaakob vnto the mightie God.	A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.	A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will return to the Mighty God.
22	For though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, yet shall the remnant of them returne. The consumption decreed shall ouerflow with righteousnesse.	For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. Destruction is decreed, overflowing with righteousness.	Though your people be like the sand by the sea, Israel, only a remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overwhelming and righteous.
23	For the Lord God of hostes shall make the consumption, euen determined, in the middes of all the land.	For the Lord GOD of hosts will make a full end, as decreed, in the midst of all the earth.	The Lord, the LORD Almighty, will carry out the destruction decreed upon the whole land.
24	Therefore thus saith ye Lord God of hostes, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of Asshur: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift vp his staffe against thee after the maner of Egypt:	Therefore thus says the Lord GOD of hosts: “O my people, who dwell in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrians when they strike with the rod and lift up their staff against you as the Egyptians did.	Therefore this is what the Lord, the LORD Almighty, says: “My people who live in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrians, who beat you with a rod and lift up a club against you, as Egypt did.
25	But yet a very litle time, and the wrath shall be consumed, and mine anger in their destruction.	For in a very little while my fury will come to an end, and my anger will be directed to their destruction.	Very soon my anger against you will end and my wrath will be directed to their destruction.”
26	And ye Lord of hostes shal raise vp a scourge for him, according to the plague of Midian in the rocke Oreb: & as his staffe was vpon the Sea, so he will lift it vp after the maner of Egypt.	And the LORD of hosts will wield against them a whip, as when he struck Midian at the rock of Oreb. And his staff will be over the sea, and he will lift it as he did in Egypt.	The LORD Almighty will lash them with a whip, as when he struck down Midian at the rock of Oreb; and he will raise his staff over the waters, as he did in Egypt.
27	And at that day shall his burden be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy necke: and the yoke shalbe destroied because of the anoynting.	And in that day his burden will depart from your shoulder, and his yoke from your neck; and the yoke will be broken because of the fat.”	In that day their burden will be lifted from your shoulders, their yoke from your neck; the yoke will be broken because you have grown so fat.
28	He is come to Aiath: he is passed into Migron: at Michmash shall he lay vp his armour.	He has come to Aiath; he has passed through Migron; at Michmash he stores his baggage;	They enter Aiath; they pass through Migron; they store supplies at Mikmash.
29	They haue gone ouer the foorde: they lodged in the lodging at Geba: Ramah is afraide: Gibeah of Saul is fled away.	they have crossed over the pass; at Geba they lodge for the night; Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul has fled.	They go over the pass, and say, “We will camp overnight at Geba.” Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul flees.
30	Lift vp thy voyce, O daughter Gallim, cause Laish to heare, O poore Anathoth.	Cry aloud, O daughter of Gallim! Give attention, O Laishah! O poor Anathoth!	Cry out, Daughter Gallim! Listen, Laishah! Poor Anathoth!
