18On that dayH3117 the LordH3068 will 1whistleH8319 for the flyH2070 that is in the 23remotestH7097 partH7097 of the canalsH2975 of EgyptH4714 and for the beeH1682 that is in the landH776 of AssyriaH804. 19They will allH3605 comeH935 and settleH5117 on the steepH1327 4ravinesH5158, on the 5ledgesH5357 of the cliffsH5553, 6on allH3605 the thornH5285 bushesH5285, and on allH3605 the wateringH5097 placesH5097.
20On that dayH3117 the LordH136 will 7shaveH1548 with a 8razorH8593, 9hiredH7917 from regionsH5676 beyondH5676 10the Euphrates RiverH5104 (that is, with the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804), the headH7218 and the hairH8181 of the legsH7272; and it will alsoH1571 removeH5595 the beardH2206.
21Now on that dayH3117 a personH376 may keepH2421 aliveH2421 only a 11heiferH5697H1241 and a pairH8147 of sheepH6629; 22and becauseH4480 of the abundanceH7230 of the milkH2461 producedH6213 he will eatH398 12curdsH2529, for everyoneH3605 who is leftH3498 withinH7130 the landH776 will eatH398 1314curdsH2529 and honeyH1706.
23And it will comeH1961 aboutH1961 on that dayH3117, 15that everyH3605 placeH4725 whereH834H8033 there used to be a thousandH505 vinesH1612, valued at a thousandH505 shekels of silverH3701, will becomeH1961 16briarsH8068 and thornsH7898. 24People will comeH935 thereH8033 with bowsH7198 and arrowsH2671, becauseH3588 allH3605 the landH776 will be briarsH8068 and thornsH7898. 25As for allH3605 the hillsH2022 whichH834 used to be cultivatedH5737 with the plowH4576, you will not goH935 thereH8033 for fearH3374 of briarsH8068 and thornsH7898; but they will becomeH1961 a placeH4916 forH4916 1718pasturingH4916 oxenH7794 and for sheepH7716 to trampleH4823.
