Summary

Anonymous The Bible, King James version, Book 23…

I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and
Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy
harvest is fallen.
23:016:010 And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful
field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither
shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine
in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease.
23:016:011 Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kirharesh.

Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure,
and exact all your labours.
23:058:004 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high.
23:058:005 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?

I have
counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust,
that thou rebellest against me?
23:036:006 Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt;
whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce
it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him.
23:036:007 But if thou say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
