4Now on that dayH3117 the 5gloryH3519 of JacobH3290 will 6fadeH1809, And 7the fatnessH4924 of his fleshH1320 will becomeH7329 leanH7329.5It will be 8like the 9reaperH622 gatheringH7105 the standingH7054 grainH7054, As his armH2220 harvestsH7114 the earsH7641, Or it will be like one gleaningH3950 earsH7641 ofH7641 grainH7641 In the 10ValleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.6Yet 11gleaningsH5955 will be leftH7604 in it like the 12shakingH5363 of an oliveH2132 treeH2132, TwoH8147 or threeH7969 olivesH1620 on the topmostH7218H534 branchH534, FourH702 or fiveH2568 on the branchesH5585 of a fruitfulH6509 treeH6509, DeclaresH5002 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.7On that dayH3117 manH120 will 13lookH8159 to his MakerH6213 And his eyesH5869 will lookH7200 to the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.8And he will not lookH8159 to the 14altarsH4196, the workH4639 of his handsH3027, NorH3808 will he lookH7200 to that whichH834 his 15fingersH676 have madeH6213, Even the 1617AsherimH842 and incenseH2553 altarsH2553.9On that dayH3117 18their strongH4581 citiesH5892 will be like 19abandonedH5805 placesH5805 in the forestH2793, Or like branchesH534 whichH834 they abandonedH5800 beforeH4480H6440 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; And 20the land will be a desolationH8077.10For 21you have forgottenH7911 the 22GodH430 of your salvationH3468 And have not rememberedH2142 the 23rockH6697 of your refugeH4581. ThereforeH5921H3651 you plantH5193 delightfulH5282 plantsH5194 And setH2232 them with vineH2156 shootsH2156 of a strangeH2114 god.11On the dayH3117 that you plantH5194 it you carefullyH5473 fenceH5473 it in, And in the 24morningH1242 you bringH6524 your seedH2233 toH6524 blossomH6524; But the harvestH7105 will 25fleeH5074 On a dayH3117 of illnessH2470 and incurableH605 painH3511.
