4. For so Jehovah said to me, I will rest, and I will watch My dwelling place; as the glowing heat on light; as the cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
|
4. For H3588 so H3541 the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 me , I will take my rest H8252 , and I will consider H5027 in my dwelling place H4349 like a clear H6703 heat H2527 upon H5921 herbs H216 , and like a cloud H5645 of dew H2919 in the heat H2527 of harvest H7105 .

|
6. They shall be left H5800 together H3162 unto the fowls H5861 of the mountains H2022 , and to the beasts H929 of the earth H776 : and the fowls H5861 shall summer H6972 upon H5921 them , and all H3605 the beasts H929 of the earth H776 shall winter H2778 upon H5921 them.
|
|
7. Then shall be brought in that time to Jehovah of Hosts a present from a tall and smooth people, and a terrifying people, from it and onward; a mighty and trampling nation whose land the rivers have divided, to the place of the name of Jehovah of Hosts: Mount Zion.
|
7. In that H1931 time H6256 shall the present H7862 be brought H2986 unto the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 of a people H5971 scattered H4900 and peeled H4178 , and from a people H4480 H5971 terrible H3372 from H4480 their beginning H1931 hitherto H1973 ; a nation H1471 meted out H6957 H6957 and trodden under foot H4001 , whose H834 land H776 the rivers H5104 have spoiled H958 , to H413 the place H4725 of the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 , the mount H2022 Zion H6726 .
