Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 32:1 | Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. |
| 32:2 | And a man shall be a hiding place from the wind, a shelter from the tempest, as streams of water in a dry place; like the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. |
| 32:3 | And the eyes of those that see shall not be dim, and the ears of those who hear shall listen. |
| 32:4 | And the heart of the rash shall discern knowledge; and the tongue of those that stutter shall hurry to speak clear things. |
| 32:5 | The fool shall no more be called noble, and a miser will not be said to be generous. |
| 32:6 | For the fool speaks foolishness, and his heart works iniquity, to do ungodliness; and to speak error against Jehovah, to make the hungry soul empty; and he causes the drink of the thirsty to fail. |
| 32:7 | And the weapons of the miser are evil; he devises wicked plots to destroy the poor with lying words, even the needy when he speaks right. |
| 32:8 | But the noble one devises noble things; and he shall rise by noble things. |
| 32:9 | O women who are at ease, rise up. Hear my voice; confident daughters, listen to my word. |
| 32:10 | You will shake for days on a year, confident women; for the vintage fails; the harvest will not come. |
| 32:11 | Tremble, women at ease; shake, confident women; strip and make yourselves bare, and bind on sackcloth on your loins; |
| 32:12 | be wailing over breasts, over pleasant fields, over the fruitful vine. |
| 32:13 | Thorns and briers shall spring up on the land of My people; even over all the houses of joy in the jubilant city, |
| 32:14 | because the palace is forsaken; the crowd of the city is forsaken; mound and tower are instead caves, until forever; a joy of wild asses; pasture for flocks; |
| 32:15 | until is poured out on us the Spirit from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field; and the fruitful field is reckoned as a forest. |
| 32:16 | Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall dwell in the fruitful field. |
| 32:17 | And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the service of righteousness shall be quietness and hope forever. |
| 32:18 | And My people shall live in a peaceful home, and in safe dwellings, and in secure resting places. |
| 32:19 | Though it hails when the forest is felled, and the city is laid low, |
| 32:20 | blessed are you who sow beside all waters, who send out the foot of the ox and the ass. |
