Isaias

Hebrew Bible

Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

10 For on this mountain shall the hand of the Lord rest, and Moab shall be trampled in his place, as straw is trampled in the water of the dung pit.

11 And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth (his hands) to swim 3 and he shall lay low his haughtiness, together With the wiles of his hands. ’

12 And the fortress of the high place of thy walls hath he brought down, laid low, brought to the ground, even to the dust.

XXVI. 1 In. that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah: We have a city of strength; salvation will he appoint for walls and rampart.

[*](6. Lit. ‘a feast of oils, a of wine-lees.’ c.)[*](9. ‘ and he will...’ or, ‘that he might save us.)[*](10. ‘trampled’: word rendered ‘threshed,’ xxi. 10, xxviii. 27, xli. 15 ‘in his place’: or, ‘under him.’ ‘the dung pit’; perhaps a proper name, Madmenah (Jer. er. xlviii. 2), or an allusion to it.)
