Bible. Isaiah
23:028:020 For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on
it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in
it.
23:028:021 For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be
wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his
strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
23:028:022 Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made
strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a
consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
23:028:023 Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
23:028:024 Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break
the clods of his ground?
23:028:025 When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast
abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the
principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their
place?
23:028:026 For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach
him.
23:028:027 For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument,
neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the
fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a
rod.
23:028:028 Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing
it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it
with his horsemen.
23:028:029 This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is
wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
23:029:001 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! add ye
year to year; let them kill sacrifices.
23:029:002 Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and
sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel.
23:029:003 And I will camp against thee round about, and will lay siege
against thee with a mount, and I will raise forts against
thee.
23:029:004 And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the
ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy
voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of
the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.
23:029:005 Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small
dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff
that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly.
23:029:006 Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and
with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and
the flame of devouring fire.
23:029:007 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel,
even all that fight against her and her munition, and that
distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
