22 And it shall be, from their giving very much milk, butter and honey shall everyone eat, that is left upon the land.

23 And it shall be, in that day, every place, wheresoever there be a thousand vines at a thousand Shekels, they shall be for barren land and thorn.

24 With arrow and bow shall they enter there; for barren and thorn shall all the land be;

25 And every mountain shall be deeply ploughed; and fear shall not come thither; for from the barren land and thorn it shall be for the feeding of a sheep, and the treading of an ox.

VIII. I And the Lord said unto me, Take thee a leaf of a new great sheet and write upon it with a ’s pen, (For) to make speedily a plundering of spoils; for it is at hand.

2 And make faithful men my witnesses, Uriah, and Zechariah, the son of Berechiah.

3 And he went in unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a son. And the Lord said to me, Call his name Quickly spoil, speedily plunder:

4 For before the child learn to call father or mother, (one) shall take the power of Damascus and the spoils of Samaria before the king of the Assyrians.

5 And the Lord spake further unto me yet,

6 Because this people desire not the water of Siloam which goeth quietly, but desire to have ’n and the son of Remaliah for king over you:

7 Therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth upon you the ’s water, that is strong and mighty, the king of the Assyrians and his glory; and he shall go up upon every valley of yours, and walk about upon every wall of yours.

8 And he shall take away from Judah (any) man who shall be able to raise the head, if it be possible to accomplish aught: and his camp shall be #x003C;so as to fill> the Wide spaces of thy God (is) with us.

9. Learn, ye nations, and be overcome: ye shall hearken, unto the end of the earth; when ye are waxed strong, be overcome; I or if ye wax strong again, ye shall be overcome again.

10 And whatsoever counsel ye take, the Lord shall scatter it: and whatsoever word ye speak, it shall not abide for you; for the LOrd God is with us.

11 Thus saith the Lord God, With the strong hand do they dispute the passage of the way of this people, saying,

12 Never speak ye stubbornly; for all that this people speaketh is stubborn; but fear ye not the fear of it, nor be confounded:

13 Sanctify the Lord himself; and he himself shall be your Fear.

[*](8. ‘or able to accomplish’ B &c. Α omits. ‘so as to fill’ ‘breadth’ (sing.) for ‘wide ’ (plur.) B &c.)[*](9. ‘learn,’ change of letter ABBREVfor ABBREN of Heb., whose meaning is uncertain. ‘Hearken’ (imperat.) ℵB.)[*](10 ‘for you,’ omit ℵQΓ. ﬁn. ‘for God is with us’ B)[*](11. ‘Thus saith the Lord, With...’ ℵBO &c. Text A 26.)[*](12. B has ‘Let them never speak,’ or. ‘Lest haply they speak’.... Stubborn,’ ‘stubbornly,’ reading ABBREN for ABBREN ‘fear ye not,’ or, ‘ye shall fear’ (more usual meaning of this construction in late Greek).)

14 And if thou hast trusted ’in him, he shall be for a sanctuary to thee; and ye shall not come upon him as a stumbling block of a stone, nor as an offence of a rock. But the house of Jacob (is) in a snare, and men that sit in Jerusalem in a hollow.

15 Therefore shall many among them be powerless, and shall fall, and shall be crushed; and men that are in safety shall draw near, and shall be taken.

16 Then shall they be manifest, who seal up the law, that they should learn.
