Judgment and Deliverance of Jerusalem

Ah! Ariel, Ariel,[a]
    city where David encamped!
Let year follow year,
    and feast follow feast,
But I will bring distress upon Ariel,
    and there will be mourning and moaning.
You shall be to me like Ariel:
    I will encamp like David against you;
I will circle you with outposts
    and set up siege works against you.
You shall speak from beneath the earth,
    and from the dust below, your words shall come.
Your voice shall be that of a ghost from the earth,
    and your words shall whisper from the dust.

23 Raise a glad cry, you heavens—the Lord has acted!
    Shout, you depths of the earth.
Break forth, mountains, into song,
    forest, with all your trees.
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
    shows his glory through Israel.

    from some place in the land of darkness,
I have not said to the descendants of Jacob,
    “Look for me in an empty waste.”
I, the Lord, promise justice,
    I declare what is right.

13 O Hope of Israel, Lord!

The rebels shall be enrolled in the netherworld;
    they have forsaken the Lord, source of living waters.

ezekiel 26.20 Ezekiel 26:20

20 Then I will thrust you down
    with those who go down to the pit,[a]
    to those of the bygone age;
I will make you dwell in the netherworld,
    in the everlasting ruins,
    with those who have gone down to the pit,
So you will never return
    or have a place in the land of the living.

ezekil 31.14 Ezekiel 31:14

14 This has happened so no well-watered tree
    will gain such lofty height,
    or lift its crown to the clouds.
Not one of those fed by water
    will tower in height over the rest.
For all of them are destined for death,
    for the underworld, among mere mortals,
    with those who go down to the pit.

ezekil 31.16 Ezekiel 31:16

16 At the sound of its fall,
    I made nations shudder,
When I cast it down to Sheol
    with those who go down to the pit.
In the underworld
    all the trees of Eden took comfort:
Lebanon’s choicest and best,
    all that were fed by the waters.

pharaoh sends Uber to Jacob GENESIS 46.5

 Genesis 46

Joseph Brings His Family to Egypt

46 So Israel took his journey with all that he had and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac. And God spoke to Israel in visions of the night and said, “Jacob, Jacob.” And he said, “Here I am.” Then he said, “I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will make you into a great nation. 4 I myself will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also bring you up again, and Joseph's hand shall close your eyes.”

Then Jacob set out from Beersheba. The sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons that Pharaoh had sent to carry him. They also took their livestock and their goods, which they had gained in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, Jacob and all his offspring with him, his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters. All his offspring he brought with him into Egypt.

Now these are the names of the descendants of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons. Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and the sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 10 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. 11 The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 12 The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan); and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul. 13 The sons of Issachar: Tola, Puvah, Yob, and Shimron. 14 The sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel. 15 These are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, together with his daughter Dinah; altogether his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three.

16 The sons of Gad: Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli. 17 The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, with Serah their sister. And the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel. 18 These are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter; and these she bore to Jacob—sixteen persons.

19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife: Joseph and Benjamin. 20 And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera the priest of On, bore to him. 21 And the sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard. 22 These are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob—fourteen persons in all.

23 The son[a] of Dan: Hushim. 24 The sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem. 25 These are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob—seven persons in all.

26 All the persons belonging to Jacob who came into Egypt, who were his own descendants, not including Jacob's sons' wives, were sixty-six persons in all. 27 And the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two. All the persons of the house of Jacob who came into Egypt were seventy.

Jacob and Joseph Reunited

28 He had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to show the way before him in Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen. 29 Then Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father in Goshen. He presented himself to him and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while. 30 Israel said to Joseph, “Now let me die, since I have seen your face and know that you are still alive.” 31 Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, “I will go up and tell Pharaoh and will say to him, ‘My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me. 32 And the men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks and their herds and all that they have.’ 33 When Pharaoh calls you and says, ‘What is your occupation?’ 34 you shall say, ‘Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,’ in order that you may dwell in the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians.”

    The Brothers’ First Journey to Egypt
    .[a] 1 When Jacob learned that grain rations were for sale in Egypt, he said to his sons: “Why do you keep looking at one another?” 2 He went on, “I hear that grain is for sale in Egypt. Go down there and buy some for us, that we may stay alive and not die.” 
    3 So ten of Joseph’s brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt. 4 But Jacob did not send Joseph’s brother Benjamin with his brothers, for he thought some disaster might befall him. 5 And so the sons of Israel were among those who came to buy grain, since there was famine in the land of Canaan.

    6 Joseph, as governor of the country, was the one who sold grain to all the people of the land. When Joseph’s brothers came, they bowed down to him with their faces to the ground. 7 He recognized them as soon as he saw them. But he concealed his own identity from them and spoke harshly to them. “Where do you come from?” he asked them. They answered, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.”

    8 When Joseph recognized his brothers, although they did not recognize him, 9 he was reminded of the dreams he had about them. He said to them: “You are spies. You have come to see the weak points[b] of the land.” (AMY SAYS joseph clearly PTSD)


     10 “No, my lord,” they replied. “On the contrary, your servants have come to buy food. 11 All of us are sons of the same man. We are honest men; your servants have never been spies.” 12 But he answered them: “Not so! It is the weak points of the land that you have come to see.”

     13 “We your servants,” they said, “are twelve brothers, sons of a certain man in Canaan; but the youngest one is at present with our father, and the other one is no more.” 14 “It is just as I said,” Joseph persisted; “you are spies. 15 This is how you shall be tested: I swear by the life of Pharaoh that you shall not leave here unless your youngest brother comes here. 16 So send one of your number to get your brother, while the rest of you stay here under arrest. Thus will your words be tested for their truth; if they are untrue, as Pharaoh lives, you are spies!” 17 With that, he locked them up in the guardhouse for three days.

    18 On the third day Joseph said to them: “Do this, and you shall live; for I am a God-fearing man. 19 If you are honest men, let one of your brothers be confined in this prison, while the rest of you go and take home grain for your starving families. 20 But you must bring me your youngest brother.

    Your words will thus be verified, and you will not die.” To this they agreed. 21 To one another, however, they said: “Truly we are being punished because of our brother. We saw the anguish of his heart when he pleaded with us, yet we would not listen. That is why this anguish has now come upon us.

    ” 22 Then Reuben responded, “Did I not tell you, ‘Do no wrong to the boy’? But you would not listen! Now comes the reckoning for his blood.” 23 They did not know, of course, that Joseph understood what they said, since he spoke with them through an interpreter. 24 But turning away from them, he wept. When he was able to speak to them again, he took Simeon from among them and bound him before their eyes. 25 Then Joseph gave orders to have their containers filled with grain, their money replaced in each one’s sack, and provisions given them for their journey. After this had been done for them, 26 they loaded their donkeys with the grain and departed.

    27 At the night encampment, when one of them opened his bag to give his donkey some fodder, he saw his money there in the mouth of his bag. 28 He cried out to his brothers, “My money has been returned! Here it is in my bag!” At that their hearts sank. Trembling, they asked one another, “What is this that God has done to us?”

    29 When they got back to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan, they told him all that had happened to them. 30 “The man who is lord of the land,” they said, “spoke to us harshly and put us in custody on the grounds that we were spying on the land. 31 But we said to him: ‘We are honest men; we have never been spies. 32 We are twelve brothers, sons of the same father; but one is no more, and the youngest one is now with our father in the land of Canaan.’ 33 Then the man who is lord of the land said to us: ‘This is how I will know if you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, then take grain for your starving families and go. 34 When you bring me your youngest brother, and I know that you are not spies but honest men, I will restore your brother to you, and you may move about freely in the land.’”

    35 When they were emptying their sacks, there in each one’s sack was his moneybag! At the sight of their moneybags, they and their father were afraid. 36 Their father Jacob said to them: “Must you make me childless? Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and now you would take Benjamin away! All these things have happened to me!” 37 Then Reuben told his father: “You may kill my own two sons if I do not return him to you! Put him in my care, and I will bring him back to you.” 38 But Jacob replied: “My son shall not go down with you. Now that his brother is dead, he is the only one left. If some disaster should befall him on the journey you must make, you would send my white head down to Sheol in grief.”

    Woe to him who heaps up what is not his own HABAK 2.6

    I will take my stand at my watchpost
        and station myself on the tower,
    and look out to see what he will say to me,
        and what I will answer concerning my complaint.

    The Righteous Shall Live by His Faith

    And the Lord answered me:

    “Write the vision;
        make it plain on tablets,
        so he may run who reads it.
    For still the vision awaits its appointed time;
        it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
    If it seems slow, wait for it;
        it will surely come; it will not delay.

    “Behold, his soul is puffed up; it is not upright within him,
        but the righteous shall live by his faith.[a]

    “Moreover, wine[b] is a traitor,
        an arrogant man who is never at rest.[c]
    His greed is as wide as Sheol;
        like death he has never enough.
    He gathers for himself all nations
        and collects as his own all peoples.”

    Woe to the Chaldeans

    Shall not all these take up their taunt against him, with scoffing and riddles for him, and say,

    “Woe to him who heaps up what is not his own
        for how long?—
        and loads himself with pledges!”
    Will not your debtors suddenly arise,
        and those awake who will make you tremble?
        Then you will be spoil for them.
    Because you have plundered many nations,
        all the remnant of the peoples shall plunder you,
    for the blood of man and violence to the earth,
        to cities and all who dwell in them.

    “Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,
        to set his nest on high,
        to be safe from the reach of harm!
    10 You have devised shame for your house
        by cutting off many peoples;

        you have forfeited your life.
    11 For the stone will cry out from the wall,
        and the beam from the woodwork respond.

    12 “Woe to him who builds a town with blood
        and founds a city on iniquity!
    13 Behold, is it not from the Lord of hosts
        that peoples labor merely for fire,
        and nations weary themselves for nothing?
    14 For the earth will be filled
        with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord
        as the waters cover the sea.

    15 “Woe to him who makes his neighbors drink—
        you pour out your wrath and make them drunk,
        in order to gaze at their nakedness!
    16 You will have your fill of shame instead of glory.
        Drink, yourself, and show your uncircumcision!
    The cup in the Lord's right hand
        will come around to you,
        and utter shame will come upon your glory!
    17 The violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
        as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them,
    for the blood of man and violence to the earth,
        to cities and all who dwell in them.

    18 “What profit is an idol
        when its maker has shaped it,
        a metal image, a teacher of lies?
    For its maker trusts in his own creation
        when he makes speechless idols!
    19 Woe to him who says to a wooden thing, Awake;
        to a silent stone, Arise!
    Can this teach?
    Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,
        and there is no breath at all in it.
    20 But the Lord is in his holy temple;
        let all the earth keep silence before him.”

    God’s Terrifying Appearance

     Nahum 1

    Chapter 1

    Oracle[a] concerning Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum of Elkosh.

    God’s Terrifying Appearance

    [b]A jealous and avenging God[c] is the Lord,
        an avenger is the Lord, full of wrath;

    The Lord takes vengeance on his adversaries,
        and rages against his enemies;
    The Lord is slow to anger, yet great in power;
        the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished.
    In stormwind[d] and tempest he comes,
        and clouds are the dust at his feet;
    He roars at the sea and leaves it dry,
        and all the rivers he dries up.
    Laid low are Bashan and Carmel,
        and the bloom of Lebanon withers;[e]
    The mountains quake before him,
        and the hills dissolve;
    The earth is laid waste before him,
        the world and all who dwell in it.
    [f]Before his wrath, who can stand firm,
        and who can face his blazing anger?
    His fury is poured out like fire,
        and boulders break apart before him.
    The Lord is good to those who wait for him,
        a refuge on the day of distress,
    Taking care of those who look to him for protection,
        when the flood rages;
    He makes an end of his opponents,
        and pursues his enemies into darkness.

    Nineveh’s Judgment and Judah’s Restoration

    What do you plot against the Lord,
        the one about to bring total destruction?
        No opponent rises a second time!
    10 [g]Like a thorny thicket, they are tangled,
        and like drunkards, they are drunk;
        like dry stubble, they are utterly consumed.
    11 From you has come
        one plotting evil against the Lord,
        one giving sinister counsel.[h]
    12 Thus says the Lord:
        though fully intact and so numerous,
        they[i] shall be mown down and disappear.
    Though I have humbled you,
        I will humble you no more.
    13 Now I will break his yoke off of you,
        and tear off your bonds.

    14 The Lord has commanded regarding you:[j]
        no descendant will again bear your name;

    From the house of your gods I will abolish
        the carved and the molten image;
        I will make your grave a dung heap.

    (Amy version  I will shit on your grave)
