1 In that day YHWH will visit with His sword, severe and great and mighty, upon Leviathan the fleeing serpent, and upon Leviathan the coiling serpent, and He will kill the dragon that is in the sea. In that day the LORD with his hard and great and strong sword will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, Leviathan the twisting serpent, and he will slay the dragon that is in the sea. In that day, the LORD will punish with his sword— his fierce, great and powerful sword— Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent; he will slay the monster of the sea.
2 In that day: Sing of her—a vineyard of delight! In that day, “A pleasant vineyard, sing of it! In that day— “Sing about a fruitful vineyard:
3 I, YHWH, am watching over her; every moment I water her, lest one should visit upon her; night and day I watch over her. I, the LORD, am its keeper; every moment I water it. Lest anyone punish it, I keep it night and day; I, the LORD, watch over it; I water it continually. I guard it day and night so that no one may harm it.
4 Anger is not in Me. Who would set against Me a thorn—a thornbush? In the battle I will march against her, I will burn her alltogether. I have no wrath. Would that I had thorns and briers to battle! I would march against them, I would burn them up together. I am not angry. If only there were briers and thorns confronting me! I would march against them in battle; I would set them all on fire.
5 Or if he should take hold of My strength, he will make peace with Me—peace he will make with Me.” Or let them lay hold of my protection, let them make peace with me, let them make peace with me.” Or else let them come to me for refuge; let them make peace with me, yes, let them make peace with me.”
6 Those coming in of Jacob he causes to take root. Israel will blossom and bud, and they will fill the face of the world with fruit. In days to come Jacob shall take root, Israel shall blossom and put forth shoots and fill the whole world with fruit. In days to come Jacob will take root, Israel will bud and blossom and fill all the world with fruit.
7 Has He has struck him as the striking of one striking him? As if according to the slaughter of his slain was he slayed? Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? Or have they been slain as their slayers were slain? Has the LORD struck her as he struck down those who struck her? Has she been killed as those were killed who killed her?
8 In driving her off, in sending her out, You have contended with her; He removed it by His harsh wind, as on the day of the east wind. Measure by measure, by exile you contended with them; he removed them with his fierce breath in the day of the east wind. By warfare and exile you contend with her— with his fierce blast he drives her out, as on a day the east wind blows.
9 Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be wiped away, and this is all the fruit, to take away his sin: In His setting all the stones of the altar, as stones of chalk crushed to pieces; they will not rise—the Asherah poles and incense altars. Therefore by this the guilt of Jacob will be atoned for, and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin: when he makes all the stones of the altars like chalkstones crushed to pieces, no Asherim or incense altars will remain standing. By this, then, will Jacob’s guilt be atoned for, and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin: When he makes all the altar stones to be like limestone crushed to pieces, no Asherah poles or incense altars will be left standing.
10 For the fortified city is alone, a habitation deserted and forsaken like the wilderness; there the calf will graze, and there he will lie down and consume her branches. For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness; there the calf grazes; there it lies down and strips its branches. The fortified city stands desolate, an abandoned settlement, forsaken like the wilderness; there the calves graze, there they lie down; they strip its branches bare.
11 With the withering of her boughs, they are broken off; the women come make fires with it, for it is not for a people of understanding. Thus He who made them will not have compassion on them, and He who formed them will not show them favor. When its boughs are dry, they are broken; women come and make a fire of them. For this is a people without discernment; therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them; he who formed them will show them no favor. When its twigs are dry, they are broken off and women come and make fires with them. For this is a people without understanding; so their Maker has no compassion on them, and their Creator shows them no favor.
12 And it will come to pass in that day, that YHWH will beat out the grain, from the stream of the River to the Wadi of Egypt, and you⁺ will be gathered one by one, O sons of Israel. In that day from the river Euphrates to the Brook of Egypt the LORD will thresh out the grain, and you will be gleaned one by one, O people of Israel. In that day the LORD will thresh from the flowing Euphrates to the Wadi of Egypt, and you, Israel, will be gathered up one by one.
13 And it will come to pass in that day that a great shofar will be blown, and will come those lost in the land of Assyria, and those driven away in the land of Egypt, and they will worship YHWH on the holy mountain in Jerusalem. And in that day a great trumpet will be blown, and those who were lost in the land of Assyria and those who were driven out to the land of Egypt will come and worship the LORD on the holy mountain at Jerusalem. And in that day a great trumpet will sound. Those who were perishing in Assyria and those who were exiled in Egypt will come and worship the LORD on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
