If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:

לְכָ֪ה (ה) h “!”

My son, attend to my words; incline thy ear to my sayings.

הַקְשִׁ֑יבָה (ה) h “!”

My son, attend to my wisdom, and bow thy ear to my understanding:

הַקְשִׁ֑יבָה (ה) h “!”

Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.

וָאֶתְּנָ֤ה (ה) h “!”

I said in my heart, Come now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and behold, this also is vanity.

לְכָה־ (ה) h- “!”

Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?

הַגִּ֣ידָה (ה) h “!”

Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages.

לְכָ֤ה (ה) h “!”

That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!

יָחִ֛ישָׁה (ה) h “!”וְתָב֗וֹאָה (ה) h “!”

I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and as a cloud, thy sins: return to me; for I have redeemed thee.

The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thy ears, The place is too narrow for me: give place to me that I may dwell.

גְּשָׁה־ (ה) h- “!”

Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back to me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.

Go and proclaim these words towards the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the LORD; and I will not cause my anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever.

שׁ֣וּבָה (ה) h “!”

And the LORD hath given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then thou showedst me their doings.

וָֽאֵדָ֑עָה (ה) h “!”

Give heed to me, O LORD, and hearken to the voice of them that contend with me.

הַקְשִׁ֥יבָה (ה) h “!”

And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle's son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.

וָֽאֶשְׁקֲלָה־ (ה) h- “!”

But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come to thee, and say to thee, Declare to us now what thou hast said to the king, hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said to thee:

הַגִּֽידָה־ (ה) h- “!”

Now while he had not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wherever it seemeth convenient to thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him provisions and a reward, and let him go.

וְשֻׁ֡בָה (ה) h “!”

He made many to fall, yes, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.

ק֣וּמָה׀ (ה) h “!”

Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.

עָזְבָ֥ה (ה) h “!”

All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for food to relieve the soul: see, O LORD, and consider; for I am become vile.

וְֽהַבִּ֔יטָה (ה) h “!”
