21:3

21:4

My heart3824 panted,8582 fearfulness6427 affrighted1204 me: the night5399 of my pleasure2837 hath he turned7760 into fear2731 unto me.

21:9

And, behold, here cometh935 a chariot7393 of men,376 with a couple6776 of horsemen.6571 And he answered6030 and said,559 Babylon894 is fallen,5307 is fallen;5307 and all the graven images6456 of her mighty ones430 he hath broken7665 unto the ground.776

O my threshing,4098 and the corn1121 of my floor:1637 that which I have heard8085 of Yahweh3068 of hosts,6635 the Elohim430 of Israel,3478 have I declared5046 unto you.
