Isaiah 16:1-6

1SendH7971 the lamb of the rulerH4910 of the landH776 from the rock to the wildernessH4057, — unto the mount of the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726.

2And it shall beH1961 [that] as a wandering birdH5775, [as] a scattered nestH7064, so shall the daughtersH1323 of MoabH4124 beH1961 at the fords of the ArnonH769.

3BringH935 in counselH6098, execute justice; makeH6213 thy shadowH6738 as the nightH3915 in the midstH8432 of noonday; hideH5641 the outcastsH5080, discover not the fugitiveH5074.

4Let mine outcastsH5080 dwell with thee, MoabH4124; be thou a covert to them from the faceH6440 of the waster. For the extortioner is at an endH3615, the wasting hath ceased, the oppressors are consumed out of the landH776.

5And a throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 in mercy: and in the tentH168 of DavidH1732 there shall sitH3427 upon it, in truthH571, one judgingH8199 and seekingH1875 justiceH4941 and hastening righteousnessH6664.

6We have heardH8085 of the arrogance of MoabH4124, — [he is] veryH3966 proud, — of his prideH1346, and his arrogance, and his wrathH5678: his pratings are vain.
