31:1

Module 1: The Judicial Indictment and the Messianic Restoration

Woe to them that go down to Mitzrayim for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Yashar'el, neither seek 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄!

31:2

Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.

31:3

Now the Mitzriym are men, and not El; and their horses flesh, and not ruach. When 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.

31:4

The Lion of Yahudah and the Defense of Tziyon

For thus hath 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts come down to fight for mount Tziyon, and for the hill thereof.

31:5

As birds flying, so will 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts defend Yarushalayim; defending also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it.

31:6

The Call to Return and the Rejection of Idols

Turn ye unto him from whom the children of Yashar'el have deeply revolted.

31:7

For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.

31:8

The Supernatural Fall of Ashshuwr

Then shall the Ashshuwrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited.

31:9

And he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, whose fire is in Tziyon, and his furnace in Yarushalayim.
