26 And [2532] so [3779] all [3956] Israel [2474] shall be saved [4982]: as [2531] it is written [1125], There shall come [2240] out of [1537] Sion [4622] the Deliverer [4506], and [2532] shall turn away [654] ungodliness [763] from [575] Jacob [2384]:
3 And I will bless [01288] them that bless [01288] thee, and curse [0779] him that curseth [07043] thee: and in thee shall all families [04940] of the earth [0127] be blessed [01288].
2 And I will make of thee [06213] a great [01419] nation [01471], and I will bless [01288] thee, and make [01431] thy name [08034] great [01431]; and thou shalt be a blessing [01293]:
28 And [1161] when [3752] all things [3956] shall be subdued [5293] unto him [846], then [5119] shall [5293] the Son [5207] also [2532] himself [846] be subject [5293] unto him that put [5293] all things [3956] under [5293] him [846], that [2443] God [2316] may be [5600] all [3956] in [1722] all [3956].
31 And [2532], behold [2400], thou shalt conceive [4815] in [1722] thy womb [1064], and [2532] bring forth [5088] a son [5207], and [2532] shalt call [2564] his [846] name [3686] JESUS [2424].
8 In that day [03117] shall the LORD [03068] defend [01598] the inhabitants [03427] of Jerusalem [03389]; and he that is feeble [03782] among them at that day [03117] shall be as David [01732]; and the house [01004] of David [01732] shall be as God [0430], as the angel [04397] of the LORD [03068] before [06440] them.
26 And God [0430] said [0559], Let us make [06213] man [0120] in our image [06754], after our likeness [01823]: and let them have dominion [07287] over the fish [01710] of the sea [03220], and over the fowl [05775] of the air [08064], and over the cattle [0929], and over all the earth [0776], and over every creeping thing [07431] that creepeth [07430] upon the earth [0776].
15 The word [01697] of the LORD [03068] came again unto me, saying [0559],
16 Moreover, thou son [01121] of man [0120], take [03947] thee one [0259] stick [06086], and write [03789] upon it, For Judah [03063], and for the children [01121] of Israel [03478] his companions [02270]: then take [03947] another [0259] stick [06086], and write [03789] upon it, For Joseph [03130], the stick [06086] of Ephraim [0669], and for all the house [01004] of Israel [03478] his companions [02270]:
17 And join [07126] them one [0259] to another [0259] into one [0259] stick [06086]; and they shall become one [0259] in thine hand [03027].
18 And when the children [01121] of thy people [05971] shall speak [0559] unto thee, saying [0559], Wilt thou not shew [05046] us what thou meanest by these?
19 Say [01696] unto them, Thus saith [0559] the Lord [0136] GOD [03069]; Behold, I will take [03947] the stick [06086] of Joseph [03130], which is in the hand [03027] of Ephraim [0669], and the tribes [07626] of Israel [03478] his fellows [02270], and will put [05414] them with him, even with the stick [06086] of Judah [03063], and make [06213] them one [0259] stick [06086], and they shall be one [0259] in mine hand [03027].
20 And the sticks [06086] whereon thou writest [03789] shall be in thine hand [03027] before their eyes [05869].
21 And say [01696] unto them, Thus saith [0559] the Lord [0136] GOD [03069]; Behold, I will take [03947] the children [01121] of Israel [03478] from among [0996] the heathen [01471], whither they be gone [01980], and will gather [06908] them on every side [05439], and bring [0935] them into their own land [0127]:
22 And I will make [06213] them one [0259] nation [01471] in the land [0776] upon the mountains [02022] of Israel [03478]; and one [0259] king [04428] shall be king [04428] to them all: and they shall be [05750] no more two [08147] nations [01471], neither shall they be divided [02673] into two [08147] kingdoms [04467] any more at all:
23 Neither shall they defile [02930] themselves any more with their idols [01544], nor with their detestable things [08251], nor with any of their transgressions [06588]: but I will save [03467] them out of all their dwellingplaces [04186], wherein they have sinned [02398], and will cleanse [02891] them: so shall they be my people [05971], and I will be their God [0430].
24 And David [01732] my servant [05650] shall be king [04428] over them; and they all shall have one [0259] shepherd [07462]: they shall also walk [03212] in my judgments [04941], and observe [08104] my statutes [02708], and do [06213] them.
25 And they shall dwell [03427] in the land [0776] that I have given [05414] unto Jacob [03290] my servant [05650], wherein your fathers [01] have dwelt [03427]; and they shall dwell [03427] therein, even they, and their children [01121], and their children's [01121] children [01121] for ever [05769]: and my servant [05650] David [01732] shall be their prince [05387] for [05704] ever [05769].
26 Moreover I will make [03772] a covenant [01285] of peace [07965] with them; it shall be an everlasting [05769] covenant [01285] with them: and I will place [05414] them, and multiply [07235] them, and will set [05414] my sanctuary [04720] in the midst [08432] of them for evermore [05769].
27 My tabernacle [04908] also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God [0430], and they shall be my people [05971].
28 And the heathen [01471] shall know [03045] that I the LORD [03068] do sanctify [06942] Israel [03478], when my sanctuary [04720] shall be in the midst [08432] of them for evermore [05769].
6 In his days [03117] Judah [03063] shall be saved [03467], and Israel [03478] shall dwell [07931] safely [0983]: and this is his name [08034] whereby he shall be called [07121], THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS [03072].
5 Behold, the days [03117] come [0935], saith [05002] the LORD [03068], that I will raise [06965] unto David [01732] a righteous [06662] Branch [06780], and a King [04428] shall reign [04427] and prosper [07919], and shall execute [06213] judgment [04941] and justice [06666] in the earth [0776].
10 And in that day [03117] there shall be a root [08328] of Jesse [03448], which shall stand [05975] for an ensign [05251] of the people [05971]; to it shall the Gentiles [01471] seek [01875]: and his rest [04496] shall be glorious [03519].
11 And it shall come to pass in that day [03117], that the Lord [0136] shall set [03254] his hand [03027] again [03254] the second time [08145] to recover [07069] the remnant [07605] of his people [05971], which shall be left [07604], from Assyria [0804], and from Egypt [04714], and from Pathros [06624], and from Cush [03568], and from Elam [05867], and from Shinar [08152], and from Hamath [02574], and from the islands [0339] of the sea [03220].
12 And he shall set up [05375] an ensign [05251] for the nations [01471], and shall assemble [0622] the outcasts [01760] of Israel [03478], and gather together [06908] the dispersed [05310] of Judah [03063] from the four [0702] corners [03671] of the earth [0776].
13 The envy [07068] also of Ephraim [0669] shall depart [05493], and the adversaries [06887] of Judah [03063] shall be cut off [03772]: Ephraim [0669] shall not envy [07065] Judah [03063], and Judah [03063] shall not vex [06887] Ephraim [0669].
25 And [1161] Jesus [2424] knew [1492] their [846] thoughts [1761], and said [2036] unto them [846], Every [3956] kingdom [932] divided [3307] against [2596] itself [1438] is brought to desolation [2049]; and [2532] every [3956] city [4172] or [2228] house [3614] divided [3307] against [2596] itself [1438] shall [2476] not [3756] stand [2476]:
