And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, {even} in Jerusalem.

And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts {of armour, even} a great company {with} bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach the living God.

Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open, that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee now, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, and confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my father's house have sinned.

And so shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in these tents, as this plague.

Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.

Now, my God, let, I beseech thee, thine eyes be open, and {let} thine ears {be} attent unto the prayer {that is made} in this place. {unto...: Heb. to the prayer of this place}

And it shall come to pass in that day, {that} the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones {that are} on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. {punish: Heb. visit upon}

O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies. {which...: Heb. whereupon thy name is called} {present: Heb. cause to fall}

That thine eyes may be open upon this house day and night, upon the place whereof thou hast said that thou wouldest put thy name there; to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant prayeth toward this place. {toward...: or, in this place}

And they shall be as mighty {men}, which tread down {their enemies} in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because the LORD {is} with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded. {the riders...: or, they shall make the riders on horses ashamed}

In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about. {great: Heb. heavy}

That thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day, {even} toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall make toward this place. {toward this place: or, in this place}

The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.

Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer {that is made} in this place. {unto...: Heb. to the prayer of this place}

And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes.

In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David {shall be} as God, as the angel of the LORD before them. {feeble: or, abject: Heb. fallen}

And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider;

And they shall be as mighty {men}, which tread down {their enemies} in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because the LORD {is} with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded. {the riders...: or, they shall make the riders on horses ashamed}

And it shall come to pass in that day, {that} a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.

And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
