- Woe is me! For I have become as when the summer fruit has been gathered, as when the grapes have been gleaned: there is no cluster to eat, no first-ripe fig that my soul desires.
- 2
- The godly has perished from the earth, and there is no one upright among mankind; they all lie in wait for blood, and each hunts the other with a net.
- 3
- Their hands are on what is evil, to do it well; the prince and the judge ask for a bribe, and the great man utters the evil desire of his soul; thus they weave it together.
- 4
- The best of them is like a brier, the most upright of them a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, of your punishment, has come; now their confusion is at hand.
- 5
- Put no trust in a neighbor; have no confidence in a friend; guard the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your arms;
- 6
- for the son treats the father with contempt, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
- 7
- But as for me, I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.
- 8
- Rejoice not over me, O my enemy; when I fall, I shall rise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD will be a light to me.
- 9
- I will bear the indignation of the LORD because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my cause and executes judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light; I shall look upon his vindication.
- 10
- Then my enemy will see, and shame will cover her who said to me, “Where is the LORD your God?” My eyes will look upon her; now she will be trampled down like the mire of the streets.
- 11
- A day for the building of your walls! In that day the boundary shall be far extended.
- 12
- In that day they will come to you, from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt to the River, from sea to sea and from mountain to mountain.
- 13
- But the earth will be desolate because of its inhabitants, for the fruit of their deeds.
- 14
- Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your inheritance, who dwell alone in a forest in the midst of a garden land; let them graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the days of old.
- 15
- As in the days when you came out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.
- 16
- The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; they shall lay their hands on their mouths; their ears shall be deaf;
- 17
- they shall lick the dust like a serpent, like the crawling things of the earth; they shall come trembling out of their strongholds; they shall turn in dread to the LORD our God, and they shall be in fear of you.
- 18
- Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love.
- 19
- He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities underfoot. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.
- 20
- You will show faithfulness to Jacob and steadfast love to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
