^11:10And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust, and his rest shall be glorious. ¹¹And it shall be in that day, that the Lord shall again shew his hand, to be zealous for the remnant that is left of the people, which shall be left by the Assyrians, and that from Egypt, and from the country of Babylon, and from Ethiopia, and from the Elamites, and from the rising of the sun, and out of Arabia.

¹²And he shall lift up a standard for the nations, and he shall gather the lost ones of Israel, and he shall gather the dispersed of Juda from the four corners of the earth. ¹³And the envy of Ephraim shall be taken away, and the enemies of Juda shall perish: Ephraim shall not envy Juda, and Juda shall not afflict Ephraim. ¹⁴And they shall fly in the ships of the Philistines: they shall at the same time spoil the sea, and them that come from the east, and Idumea: and they shall lay their hands on Moab first; but the children of Ammon shall first obey them.

¹⁵And the Lord shall make desolate the sea of Egypt; and he shall lay his hand on the river with a strong wind, and he shall smite the seven channels, so that men shall pass through it dry-shod. ¹⁶And there shall be a passage for my people that is left in Egypt: and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt. ^12:1And in that day thou shalt say, I will bless thee, O Lord; for thou wast angry with me, but thou hast turned aside thy wrath, and hast pitied me. ²Behold, my God is my Saviour; I will trust in him, and not be afraid: for the Lord is my glory and my praise, and is become my salvation.

^7:11In the six hundredth year of the life of Noe, in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on this day all the fountains of the abyss were broken up, and the flood-gates of heaven were opened. ¹²And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. ¹³On that very day entered Noe, Sem, Cham, Japheth, the sons of Noe, and the wife of Noe, and the three wives of his sons with him into the ark. ¹⁴And all the wild beasts after their kind, and all cattle after their kind, and every reptile moving itself on the earth after its kind, and every flying bird after its kind, ¹⁵went in to Noe into the ark, pairs, male and female of all flesh in which is the breath of life.

¹⁶And they that entered went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded Noe, and the Lord God shut the ark outside of him. ¹⁷And the flood was upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and the water abounded greatly and bore up the ark, and it was lifted on high from off the earth. ¹⁸And the water prevailed and abounded exceedingly upon the earth, and the ark was borne upon the water. ¹⁹And the water prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and covered all the high mountains which were under heaven.

²⁰Fifteen cubits upwards was the water raised, and it covered all the high mountains. ²¹And there died all flesh that moved upon the earth, of flying creatures and cattle, and of wild beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, and every man. ²²And all things which have the breath of life, and whatever was on the dry land, died. ²³And God blotted out every offspring which was upon the face of the earth, both man and beast, and reptiles, and birds of the sky, and they were blotted out from the earth, and Noe was left alone, and those with him in the ark.

²⁴And the water was raised over the earth an hundred and fifty days. ^8:1And God remembered Noe, and all the wild beasts, and all the cattle, and all the birds, and all the reptiles that creep, as many as were with him in the ark, and God brought a wind upon the earth, and the water stayed. ²And the fountains of the deep were closed up, and the flood-gates of heaven, and the rain from heaven was withheld. ³And the water subsided, and went off the earth, and after an hundred and fifty days the water was diminished, and the ark rested in the seventh month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

^10:1A wise son makes his father glad: but a foolish son is a grief to his mother. ²Treasures shall not profit the lawless: but righteousness shall deliver from death. ³The Lord will not famish a righteous soul: but he will overthrow the life of the ungodly. ⁴Poverty brings a man low: but the hands of the vigorous make rich. ⁵A wise son is saved from heat: but a lawless son is blighted of the winds in harvest. ⁶The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the just: but untimely grief shall cover the mouth of the ungodly.

⁷The memory of the just is praised; but the name of the ungodly man is extinguished. ⁸A wise man in heart will receive commandments; but he that is unguarded in his lips shall be overthrown in his perverseness. ⁹He that walks simply, walks confidently; but he that perverts his ways shall be known. ¹⁰He that winks with his eyes deceitfully, procures griefs for men; but he that reproves boldly is a peacemaker. ¹¹There is a fountain of life in the hand of a righteous man; but destruction shall cover the mouth of the ungodly.

¹²Hatred stirs up strife; but affection covers all that do not love strife. ¹³He that brings forth wisdom from his lips smites the fool with a rod. ¹⁴The wise will hide discretion; but the mouth of the hasty draws near to ruin. ¹⁵The wealth of rich men is a strong city; but poverty is the ruin of the ungodly. ¹⁶The works of the righteous produce life; but the fruits of the ungodly produce sins. ¹⁷Instruction keeps the right ways of life; but instruction unchastened goes astray. ¹⁸Righteous lips cover enmity; but they that utter railings are most foolish.

¹⁹By a multitude of words thou shalt not escape sin; but if thou refrain thy lips thou wilt be prudent. ²⁰The tongue of the just is tried silver; but the heart of the ungodly shall fail. ²¹The lips of the righteous know sublime truths: but the foolish die in want. ²²The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the righteous; it enriches him, and grief of heart shall not be added to it.

^43:9All the nations are gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the truth. ¹⁰Be ye my witnesses, and I too am a witness, saith the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know, and believe, and understand that I am he: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.

¹¹I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour. ¹²I have declared, and have saved; I have reproached, and there was no strange god among you: ye are my witnesses, and I am the Lord God, ¹³even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back? ¹⁴Thus saith the Lord God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; For your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships.

^5:15But the righteous live for evermore; their reward also is with the Lord, and the care of them is with the most High. ¹⁶Therefore shall they receive a glorious kingdom, and a beautiful crown from the Lord's hand: for with his right hand shall he cover them, and with his arm shall he protect them. ¹⁷He shall take to him his jealousy for complete armour, and make the creature his weapon for the revenge of his enemies. ¹⁸He shall put on righteousness as a breastplate, and true judgment instead of an helmet.

¹⁹He shall take holiness for an invincible shield. ²⁰His severe wrath shall he sharpen for a sword, and the world shall fight with him against the unwise. ²¹Then shall the right aiming thunderbolts go abroad; and from the clouds, as from a well drawn bow, shall they fly to the mark. ²²And hailstones full of wrath shall be cast as out of a stone bow, and the water of the sea shall rage against them, and the floods shall cruelly drown them. ²³Yea, a mighty wind shall stand up against them, and like a storm shall blow them away: thus iniquity shall lay waste the whole earth, and ill dealing shall overthrow the thrones of the mighty.

^6:1Hear therefore, O ye kings, and understand; learn, ye that be judges of the ends of the earth. ²Give ear, ye that rule the people, and glory in the multitude of nations. ³For power is given you of the Lord, and sovereignty from the Highest, who shall try your works, and search out your counsels.

^11:10And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust, and his rest shall be glorious. ¹¹And it shall be in that day, that the Lord shall again shew his hand, to be zealous for the remnant that is left of the people, which shall be left by the Assyrians, and that from Egypt, and from the country of Babylon, and from Ethiopia, and from the Elamites, and from the rising of the sun, and out of Arabia.

¹²And he shall lift up a standard for the nations, and he shall gather the lost ones of Israel, and he shall gather the dispersed of Juda from the four corners of the earth. ¹³And the envy of Ephraim shall be taken away, and the enemies of Juda shall perish: Ephraim shall not envy Juda, and Juda shall not afflict Ephraim. ¹⁴And they shall fly in the ships of the Philistines: they shall at the same time spoil the sea, and them that come from the east, and Idumea: and they shall lay their hands on Moab first; but the children of Ammon shall first obey them.

¹⁵And the Lord shall make desolate the sea of Egypt; and he shall lay his hand on the river with a strong wind, and he shall smite the seven channels, so that men shall pass through it dry-shod. ¹⁶And there shall be a passage for my people that is left in Egypt: and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt. ^12:1And in that day thou shalt say, I will bless thee, O Lord; for thou wast angry with me, but thou hast turned aside thy wrath, and hast pitied me. ²Behold, my God is my Saviour; I will trust in him, and not be afraid: for the Lord is my glory and my praise, and is become my salvation.
