Now will I rise, says the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.

Now will I rise, says the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.

The above, Isaiah 33:10, is the LORD speaking of now, when none are “left,” when all are confounded, and the land (‘erets – the earth, all truth in it) is “forsaken.” The following, which we’ve discussed in recent posts, are the verses saying this and telling of it as when the LORD comes (has come) to judge the earth.

Jeremiah 9
19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because our dwellings have cast us out [“into the midst of deceit” – see verse 6 below].

6 Your habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, says the LORD.
7 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how shall I do for the daughter of my people?
8 Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaks deceit: one speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in heart he lays his wait.
9 Shall I not visit them for these things? says the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

The word rendered “forsaken,” above in verse 19, is the Hebrew word ‘azab, referring us to Deuteronomy 32:36, there saying it’s when the LORD sees it, that none are “left,” when His people’s power is gone, He will come to judge the earth.

Deuteronomy 32
28 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight [that there is none left], except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?
31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:
33 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
34 Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
35 To me belongs vengeance [naqam 5359] and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
36 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he sees that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left [‘azab].
37 And he shall say, Where are their gods [who are men who’ve put themselves in God’s place], their rock in whom they trusted,
38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live forever.
41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance [naqam 5359] to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
42 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
43 Rejoice, O you nations, with his people: for he will avenge [naqam 5358] the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance [naqam 5359] to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.

As we’ve seen, this condition, above described as “confounded,” is later, in Isaiah 34:11, described by (the LORD through) Isaiah, as laid out by a line of confusion, upon which are built stone of emptiness. We’re told in verse 8, “it is the day of the LORD’s vengeance [naqam 5359], and the year of recompenses for the controversy [who will rule the earth] of Zion.”

The word here rendered “recompenses” is the three times used Hebrew word shilluwm, meaning “from 7999; a requital, i.e. (secure) retribution, (venal) a fee:–recompense, reward.” The word its from (7999) is shalam (the Salem in Jerusalem: peace that flows through God’s teaching), meaning “to be safe (in mind, body or estate); figuratively, to be (causatively, make) completed; by implication, to be friendly; by extension, to reciprocate (in various applications).”

In context, the other two uses of the shilluwm, Hosea 9:7 and Micah 7:3, define the time and the LORD’s visitation, His judgment: the punishment of those destroying His people, and the reward of the meek who inherit the earth.

Hosea 9
7 The days of visitation have come, the days of recompense [shilluwm] have come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad [cannot distinguish between reality and his delusions], for the multitude of your iniquity, and the great hatred [deception they put in place of the love of God’s truth].
8 The watchman [tsaphah – the overseer – who see what is coming] of Ephraim [of God’s people in this generation] was with my God: but the prophet is [the many false prophets are] a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hatred [lies, abominations they put] in the house of his God.
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the first-ripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved.
11 As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.
12 Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there shall not be a man left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!

The word “left” above (in verse 12) doesn’t appear in the original text, while, in context, it refers to the Hebrew word ‘azab, it more specifically points us to Jeremiah 4:25. There we are told of the condition of the earth, when the LORD looked, and there was “no man.”

Jeremiah 4
…now also will I give sentence against them.
13 Behold, he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe unto us! for we are spoiled.
14 O Jerusalem, wash your heart [with these pure waters] from wickedness, that you mayest be saved. How long shall your vain thoughts lodge within you?
15 For a voice declares from Dan [this judgment], and publishes affliction from mount Ephraim [to God’s people in this generation].
16 Make you mention to the nations; behold, publish against Jerusalem, that watchers [the false prophets watching for their chance to destroying you with their misleading] come from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Judah.
17 As keepers of a field, are they against her round about; because she has been rebellious against me [against My good leading], says the LORD.
18 Your way and your doings have procured these things unto you; this is your wickedness, because it is bitter, because it reaches unto your heart [it corrupts your thinking].
19 My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart makes a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet [the voice of the archangel – the good watchman], the alarm of war [of the wicked against us – which God’s people refuse to acknowledge].
20 Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment.
21 How long shall I see the standard [nec – the son of man lifted up, as Moses lifted the serpent in the wilderness], and hear the sound [qowl – voice] of the trumpet [of the archangel and not join him sounding the alarm of war]?
22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish [cakal – foolish] children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens [the place of understanding] were fled.
26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.
27 For thus has the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black [in the place where there should be understanding there is instead ignorance]; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.

Jeremiah 5
21 Hear now this, O foolish [cakal] people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:
22 Fear you not me? says the LORD: will you not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea [this generation as the end of the corrupt world] by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves [the pride of the dead in power] thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it [this end]?
23 But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone.
24 Neither say they in their heart [not seeing the reality of this moment], Let us now fear the LORD our God, that gives rain [His word from heaven], both the former and the latter, in his season [this appointed time]: he reserves unto us [this generation] the appointed weeks of the harvest.
25 Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.
26 For among my people are found wicked men [in power]: they lay wait, as he that sets snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich [the Aristocracy, that is now attempting to destroy humanity while claiming they are its saviors].

As we understand, the words “confusion” and “emptiness,” in Isaiah 34:11, and “without form, and void,” in Jeremiah 4:23, are both respectively the Hebrew words tohuw and bohuw. These words only appear one other time together, the only other time bohuw is used, in Genesis 1:2, identically translated as “without form, and void,” when darkness (ignorance) covered the face of the deep (understanding). We are told of the rescue beginning when the Spirit of God (the LORD unknown in the darkness) moved upon the surface of the water (revealing what is below in the deep). What is produced is light, understanding (in one, the Only-begotten of God – Christ the first-fruit, and then all those who are His at His coming) un-comprehended in the ignorance (as a thief in the night).

Isaiah 34 tells us how ignorance comes, saying: 12 They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom, but none shall be there, and all her princes shall be nothing. 13 And thorns {misleader – as overgrowing in a time of neglect} shall come up in her palaces {the places of power}, nettles and brambles {deceivers} in the fortresses {in the strongholds where we should be in safety} thereof: and it shall be a habitation of dragons {who devour with their wide open mouths}, and a court for owls {who hunt souls in the darkness}.

The word rendered “nobles” is chor, meaning “white or pure (from the cleansing or shining power of fire.)” This descriptively says they (princes) have this quality and the power to bring those they lead into this state. When it says, they are instead “nothing,” it is the Hebrew word ‘ephec, meaning “cessation, i.e. an end (especially of the earth),” which refers us to its use in Isaiah 41:12, saying “You shall seek them, and shall not find them, even them that contended with you: they that war against you shall be as nothing, and as a thing of naught [‘ephec].”

Isaiah 41
8 But you, Israel, are my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
9 You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called you from the chief men thereof, and said unto you, You are my servant; I have chosen you, and not cast you away.
10 Fear you not; for I am with you: be not dismayed; for I am your God: I will strengthen you; yea, I will help you; yea, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.
11 Behold, all they that were incensed against you shall be ashamed [buwsh – disappointed by not reaching the end they seek] and confounded [and confused when they don’t]: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with you shall perish.
12 You shall seek them, and shall not find them, even them that contended with you: they that war against you shall be as nothing, and as a thing of naught [‘ephec].
13 For I the LORD your God will hold your right hand, saying unto you, Fear not; I will help you.
14 Fear not, you worm Jacob, and you men of Israel; I will help you, says the LORD, and your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
15 Behold, I will make you a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: you shall thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shall make the hills as chaff.
16 You shall fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and you shall rejoice in the LORD, and shall glory in the Holy One of Israel.
17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue fails for thirst [for this word of God], I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.
18 I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of [living] water.

Micah 7
1 Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape-gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat: my soul desired the first-ripe fruit.
2 The good man [the fruit] is perished out of the earth: and there is none upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.
3 That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the prince asks, and the judge asks for a reward [shilluwm]; and the great man, he utters his mischievous desire: so they wrap it up.
4 The best of them is as a brier: the most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge: the day of your watchmen and your visitation comes; now shall be their perplexity.
5 Trust you not in a friend, put you not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of your mouth from her that lies in your bosom.
6 For the son dishonor the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother-in-law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
7 Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness [in ignorance], the LORD shall be a light [understanding] unto me.
9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him [looking to those of His, and not looking to the maker thereof], until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light [by His understanding], and I shall behold his righteousness.
10 Then she that is mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said unto me, Where is the LORD your God? mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
11 In the day that your walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree be far removed.
12 In that day also he shall come even to you from Assyria [from the communists], and from the fortified cities, and from the fortress even to the river [of these living waters], and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit [the misleaders she raised to power] of their doings.
14 Feed your people with your rod, the flock of your heritage, which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the midst of Carmel [this garden – the land that is like Eden]: let them feed in Bashan [among His flock] and Gilead [from this mountain of testimony], as in the days of old.
15 According to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt [out from under oppressors] will I show unto him marvelous things [by opening your eyes of understanding].
16 The nations shall see [these marvels] and be confounded [buwsh – disappointed when their words of confusion don’t get them what they seek] at all their might: they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of you.
18 Who is a God like unto you, that pardons iniquity, and passes by the transgression of the [elect] remnant of his heritage? he retains not his anger forever, because he delights in mercy.
19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20 You will perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which you have sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.

The LORD, in verse 3 above, speaking of the shilluwm (the just recompense, not the “reward” they desire) of the wicked, says it is by their own “mischievous” (havvah) desire they are “confounded.” The word havvah is from the six times used word hava’, meaning to breathe (speak), into existence.

In this context, and seeing the contrast, here are several of the appearances of hava’.

Job 37
2 Hear attentively the noise [rogez – relentlessness] of his voice, and the sound that goes out of his mouth.
3 He directs it under the whole heaven, and his lightning [understanding from heaven] unto the ends of the [ending the old and creating the new] earth.
4 After it a voice roars [as a Lion against the pride of Jordan]: he thunder [the voice of the light heard from heaven, the place of full understanding] with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them [He will not hold back understanding] when his voice is heard.
5 God thunders marvelously [opening blind eyes] with his voice; great things does he, which we cannot comprehend [until our ignorance is removed].
6 For he says to the snow [His word frozen, reserved unto fire, in heaven], Be [hava’ – come into existence] on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength [this word of God from heaven, which when understood {rain and light} brings life on earth].
7 He seals up the hand [the work] of every man; that all men may know [understand] his work.
8 Then the beasts [without His Spirit] go into dens, and remain in their places.
9 Out of the south comes the whirlwind [His Almighty Spirit against the ignorance of the wicked]: and cold out of the north [the darkness, ignorance, by which His word is frozen – present but not understood].
10 By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened [ordered into understanding].
11 Also by watering he wearies [tarach – overburdens] the thick cloud [that it can no longer hold back the rain in it]: he scatters [puwts – disperses {His understanding} from] his bright cloud [where the elements {of understanding} are held when they were removed from the earth]:
12 And it is turned round about [they return, as the wheel within a wheel, written understand sent to give understanding] by his counsels: that they may do [accomplish] whatsoever he commands them upon the face of the world [the present generation to whom it is sent] in the earth.
13 He causes it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
14 Hearken unto this, O Job [my people who are hated by this evil generation]: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
15 Do you know when God disposed them, and caused the light [understanding] of his cloud [held in heaven] to shine [to come upon all who come out of corruption into the shining light of His new day]?
16 Do you know the balancings [when they reach this tipping point and empty their burden] of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?
17 How your garments are warm [this covering He send to clothe with His righteousness], when he quiets the earth by the south wind [the right hand of His power, the one looking at, watching, the sun rise]?
18 Have you with him spread out the sky, which is strong [from where strength comes], and as a molten looking glass [through which He gives us sight]?
19 Teach us what we shall say unto him [all should say Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!]; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness [ignorance].
20 Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak [his own word and opposes God], surely he shall be swallowed up.
21 And now [ignorant] men see not the bright light [this understand in] which is in the clouds: but the wind passes, and cleanses them [of their own ideas, the creations of men, that blind them].
22 Fair weather comes out of the north [clam then comes by coming out of the places of ignorance]: with God is terrible majesty.
23 Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict.
24 Men do therefore fear him: he respects not any that are wise of heart [the pride that comes before their fall].

Ecclesiastes 2
19 And who knows whether he [those who come after] shall be a wise man or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labor [whereby I am given understanding which I pass forward in the wheel] wherein I have labored, and wherein I have shown myself wise under the sun [when God’s light was upon me]. This is also vanity.
20 Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair [ya’ash – when I understood all this understanding would in time cease] of all the labor which I took under the sun.
21 For there is a man whose labor is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that has not labored therein shall he leave it for his portion [this inheritance passed to future generations]. This also is vanity and a great evil [by which it is lost].
22 For what has [hava’ – brought into existence] man of all his labor, and of the vexation [to understand] of his heart his own mind], wherein he has labored under the sun [when God’s light is shining upon him]?
23 For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night [in his time of ignorance]. This is also vanity [worthless worry].
24 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw [I understood], that it was from the hand [work] of God [when He wills and only then is understanding again given].
25 For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I?
26 For God gives to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner [those led away by their own lusts] he gives travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before [waiting for the presence of] God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit.

In this context: Solomon comprehending the LORD gave him his understanding, and knowing when passed on, it would be lost in the hands of evil (misleading) men; a process he then, in Ecclesiastes 11:1, calls casting his bread (full understanding) upon the waters, to be found in many days.

Ecclesiastes 11
1 Cast your bread upon the waters: for you shall find it after many days [when God wills].
2 Give a portion [this inheritance] to seven [the congregation of God’s people], and also to eight [for the new creation]; for you know not what evil [misleading] shall be upon the earth [when the darkness will again cover the deep].
3 If the clouds be full of rain [when understanding is removed from the earth], they empty themselves upon the earth [when God wills it to return]: and if the tree [the upright who are God’s right hand] fall toward the south, or toward the north [into darkness], in the place where the tree falls, there it shall be [hava’ – there shall it come into existence by the words men speak].
4 He that observes [shamar, meaning “to hedge about (as with thorns [misleaders])”] the wind [the Spirt of God] shall not sow; and he that regards [ra’ah – advise himself] the clouds [when understand has left the earth] shall not reap.
5 As you know not what is the way of the Spirit [of God working unknown], nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her [the ONE BODY] that is with [a man] child: even so you know not the works of God who makes all.
6 In the morning [when the light of the new day comes] sow your seed, and in the evening [when darkness is approaching] withhold not your hand: for you know not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
7 Truly the light [understanding] is sweet [strength from the mouth of those God gives it], and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes [of understanding] to behold the sun [the light of this new day come]:
8 But if a man lives many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness [ignorance and how has come]; for they shall be many. All that comes is vanity [worthless].
9 Rejoice, O young man, in your youth; and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes: but know you, that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.
10 Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil [misleading] from your flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity [are worthless without God’s understanding].

When Solomon above warns the young men, he is speaking to those who will very shortly advise his son Rehoboam to abandon his wisdom, even what is written, and bring the beach to the house of David.

1 Kings 12
6 And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do you advise that I may answer this people?
7 And they spoke unto him, saying, If you will be a servant unto this people this day, and will serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that were grown up with him, and which stood before him:
9 And he said unto them, What counsel give you that we may answer this people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke which your father did put upon us lighter?
10 And the young men that were grown up with him spoke unto him, saying, Thus shall you speak unto this people that spoke unto you, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy, but make you it lighter unto us; thus shall you say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s loins.
11 And now whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father has chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.
13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men’s counsel that they gave him;
14 And spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father also chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.

This is the condition of the day.

Isaiah 16
1 Send you the lamb [I AM] to the ruler of the land from Sela [the false rock of the enemies mixed among us] to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
2 For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab [those who mouth are the gates holding the world in hell] shall be at the fords [crossing over] of Arnon [brawling words].
3 Take counsel, execute judgment; make your shadow as the night [understand your own ignorance] in the midst of the noonday [now when the sun is fully risen – with healing, the cure, in His wings]; hide the outcasts [those who will then come out of hell into life]; bewray not him that wanders [don’t put to shame all the apostates].
4 Let mine outcasts dwell with you, Moab; be [hava’ – come to life, into existence by making your words] a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceases, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.
5 And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride [by which he refuses to surrender to the Highest power], and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so.
7 Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, everyone shall howl: for the foundations of Kirhareseth [the wall of that is broken down] shall you mourn; surely they are stricken.

1 Corinthians 13
8 Charity [agape – the LORD’s mercy revealed in His relentless giving, long-suffering until we receive full understanding] never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away [with the old heaven and earth].
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect [teleios – complete understanding] is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly [through ignorance]; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abides faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

The word Hallelujah, never appearing in the KJV, is the two Hebrew words halal and Yahh.

From the Strong’s Hebrew Dictionary:

Strong’s #1984: halal (pronounced haw-lal’) a primitive root; to be clear (orig. of sound, but usually of color); to shine; hence, to make a show, to boast; and thus to be (clamorously) foolish; to rave; causatively, to celebrate; also to stultify:–(make) boast (self), celebrate, commend, (deal, make), fool(- ish, -ly), glory, give (light), be (make, feign self) mad (against), give in marriage, (sing, be worthy of) praise, rage, renowned, shine.

Strong’s #3050: Yahh (pronounced yaw) contraction for 3068, and meaning the same; Jah, the sacred name:–Jah, the LORD, most vehement.

Strong’s #3068: Yhovah (pronounced yeh-ho-vaw’) from 1961 hayah – “to exist, i.e. be or become, come to pass (always emphatic; self-Existent or Eternal; Jehovah, Jewish national name of God:–Jehovah, the LORD.

These words tell of the LORD manifesting His presence at His will, in the flesh He chooses, through His word only He completely knows.

1 Timothy 3
14 These things write I unto you, hoping to come unto you shortly:
15 But if I tarry long, that you mayest know how you ought to behave yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

Revelation 19
1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Hallelujah [halal Yahh]; Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, unto the LORD our God:
2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he has judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and has avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
3 And again they said, Hallelujah And her smoke rose up forever and ever.
4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Hallelujah.
5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all you his servants, and you that fear him, both small and great.
6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thundering, saying, Hallelujah: for the LORD God omnipotent reigns.
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife has made herself ready.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9 And he says unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he says unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me [as I say unto you], See you do it not: I am your fellow-servant, and of your brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he does judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he has on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And LORD Of Lords.
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that [by the strength of this understanding] fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18 That you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

Psalms 56
1 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresses me.
2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O you most High.
3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in you.
4 In God I will praise [halal] his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in your anger cast down the people, O God.
8 You tell my wanderings: put you my tears into your bottle: are they not in your book?
9 When I cry unto you, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
10 In God will I praise [halal] his word: in the LORD will I praise [halal] his word.
11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
12 Your vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto you.
13 For you have delivered my soul from death: will not you deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light [understanding] of the living?
