Yea, for your sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
The LORD begins today in a mystery, a strategic secret, above in Psalms 44:22, revealed now in this time of war against the darkness that covers all understanding. It is in it we find the “victory,” when we, with His awakening in us, are quickened from death into life by our confession of His presence in His word we speak as His (identity in His) ONE living BODY.
Paul, the LORD alive in him speaking and working, quotes the above verse in Romans 8:36, speaking to those of us predestined for this moment of awakening, follows it in verse 37, saying, “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.”
The word rendered “more than conquerors” is the once-used Greek work hupernikao, meaning “to vanquish beyond, i.e. gain a decisive victory.”
Paul’s beginning verse 37 with “nay” would appear, at first glance, to contradict Psalms 44:22, which he just cited and affirmed with a “Yea.” A deeper examination of the original text tells us otherwise.
In Psalms 44, the verse is followed with verse 23 saying, “Awake, why sleep you, O LORD? arise, cast us not off forever.”
As background, the Psalm is titled, For the Sons of Korah, Maschil. Korah is a son of Levi who rebelled against Moses and for it was, with his fellow rebels, eventually swallowed by the earth. The word maschil means instruction. These meanings tell us the Psalm is a written instruction to those now in rebellion, refusing to follow and obey the LORD’s instructions through His chosen. It (the Psalm) ends with the epilogue, “To the Chief Musician [natsach – Chief Overseer] upon Shoshannim,” meaning it’s sent to those [first to the first begotten] leading God’s people in repeating the Songs He’s given: and their ONE voice is the last trumpet sounding.
The awakening, spoken of in verse 23, is God’s people opening their mouths and coming to life, as Korah, who, instead of choosing destruction, is changed at this last trump, as the corrupt put on uncorrupted truth and they (put on) their immortality.
We know (among other things, by deeper examination) that Paul’s wording (in Romans 8:37) is a paraphrase of Psalms 44:23 and speaks of the same victory over death. Paul, knowing the word “forever” in the original text is netsach (meaning the goal), also knows it’s the word rendered “victory” in Isaiah 25:8.
When quoting this Isaiah passage in 1 Corinthians 15:54, he (Paul) uses the four-time-used word nikos, always rendered “victory,” and always speaks of the victory over death and the grave (hell, in the earth’s belly) and by whom it comes.
Going deeper, the word nikos appears three times in 1 Corinthians 15 (verses 54, 54 & 57) and once in Matthew 12:20, as the LORD quotes Isaiah 42:3, where the word (rendered “victory” in Matthew) is the Hebrew word ‘emeth and is rendered “truth.”
The point: hear and obey the word of the LORD, put off corruption and put on immortality, or remain in the belly of the earth ending in ruin. Victory and truth are synonymous, both (the goal led to by the Chief Overseer), which, when they come, end death by the LORD long-suffering to raise us from it into life.
Romans 8
27 And he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession for the saints [knowing they are also in need of this change] according to the will of God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called [kletos] according to his purpose.
29 For whom he did foreknow [know before, the faithful throughout history], he also did predestinate [proorizo – to limit in advance, at this horizon] to be conformed to the image [eikon] of his Son, that he might be [as the first light on the horizon] the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate [proorizo], them he also called [kaleo]: and whom he called [kaleo], them he also justified [dikaioo – freed from corruption]: and whom he justified [freed from corruption], them he also glorified [manifesting His presence in them].
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect [eklektos – His chosen]? It is God that justifies [frees us from corruption and thereby death].
34 Who is he that condemns? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen [egeiro] again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession [entugchano] for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of [agape – freely giving us all things through] Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, [Psalms 44:22 saying,”Yea,” to verse 21 saying “Shall not God search this out? for he knows the secrets of the heart.”] For your sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors [hupernikao] through him that loved [agapao – freely gave His treasures to] us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love [agape – this grace given by the Divine charity] of God, which is in Christ Jesus our LORD.
1 Thessalonians 3
8 For now we live, if you stand fast [steko] in the LORD.
Psalms 43
1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2 For you are the God of my strength: why do you cast me off [as in Psalms 44 below]? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3 O send out your light [understanding] and your truth [‘emeth – which bring us to the victory]: let them lead me; let them bring me unto your holy hill, and to your tabernacles.
4 Then will I go unto the altar of God [offering the sacrifice in which He delights], unto God [realized] my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise you, O God my God.
5 Why are you cast down, O my soul? and why are you disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health [yshuw’ah – Jesus] of my countenance [paniym – Your presence manifested in the flesh], and my God.
To the Chief Musician [Natsach – the Chief Overseer who, with these songs, leads into truth and victory]
Psalms 44
Words of Instruction, to be Sung to the Rebels and by them upon Returning
1 We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the times of old.
2 How you did drive out the heathen with your hand, and planted them; how you did afflict the people, and cast them out.
3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but your right hand, and your arm, and the light [understanding] of your countenance [paniym – Your presence], because you had a favor unto them.
4 You are my King, O God: command deliverances [yshuw’ah – Jesus, Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh] for Jacob.
5 Through you will we push down our enemies: through your name [Your Identity] will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 But you have saved us from our enemies, and have put them to shame that hated us.
8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise your name [Your identity] forever. Selah.
9 But [in our rebellion and rejection of Your leadership] you have cast off, and put us to shame; and go not forth with our armies.
10 You make us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11 You have given us like sheep appointed for meat; and have scattered us among the heathen.
12 You sell your people for naught, and do not increase your wealth by their price.
13 You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14 You make us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face has covered me,
16 For the voice of him that reproaches and blasphemes; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17 All this is come upon us; yet have we [in our confusion we thought we have] not forgotten you, neither have we dealt falsely in your covenant.
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from your way;
19 Though you have sore broken us in the place of dragons [tanniyn – by men among us as serpents and whales, devoured us with their wide open mouths and swallowing us into this belly of hell], and covered us with [concealed from us] the shadow of [darkness – ignorance of our own condition, which is] death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of [the identity, His manner in which He reveals Himself as] our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god [which men created and put in His place];
21 Shall not God search [chaqar – penetrate this darkness] this out [as He has]? for he knows the secrets of the heart [mind].
22 Yea, for your sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleep you, O LORD? Arise [in us], cast us not off forever [netsach – from Your victory and truth].
24 Wherefore hide you your face [paniym – Your presence, which is only hidden in the ignorance caused by the dragons among you], and forget our affliction and our oppression [which He hasn’t forgotten, but they, the rebels, continually turn to their oppressors thinking these destroyers will save them from themselves]?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust [the ruin of the earth led by serpents and whales]: our belly [beten – the belly of hell, of Jonah 2:2] cleaves [dabaq – meaning “to impinge, i.e. cling or adhere; figuratively, to catch by pursuit”] unto [hell on] the earth.
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for your mercies’ sake.
What part of this isn’t clear yet? What part hasn’t the LORD fully explained? When is it enough?
Ezekiel 33
17 Yet the children of your people say, The way of the LORD is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.
18 When the righteous turns from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, he shall even die thereby.
19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
20 Yet you say, The way of the LORD is not equal. O you house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.
21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year [the perfection, completion, of the LORD’s government in this new heaven and earth] of our captivity, in the tenth month [ordinal perfection, when all things have been put in their right order], in the fifth day [of His grace and mercy] of the month, that one that had escaped [paliyt, it is referring back to verse 5 of this chapter, where the word malat, meaning to escape, rendered “deliver,” speaks of those who received the warning and acting upon it, escaped what is warned of] out of [corrupt] Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city [of those turned from righteousness, and the wicked who haven’t turned from their wickedness] is smitten [by its own ignorance and insanity].
22 Now the hand of the LORD was upon me in the evening [as darkness was coming], afore he that was escaped [paliyt] came [with this warning]; and had opened my mouth [to speak the LORD’s word], until he came to me in the morning [when this understanding of this new day was come]; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
23 Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
24 Son of man, they that inhabit those wastes of the land [‘adamah – the ruin of this last generation] of Israel speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land [’erets – the earth]: but we are many; the land [‘erets – the earth] is given us for inheritance.
25 Wherefore say unto them, Thus says the LORD God; You eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood: and shall you possess the land?
26 You stand upon your sword, you work abomination, and you defile every one his neighbor’s wife: and shall you possess the land [’erets – the earth]?
27 Say you thus unto them, Thus says the LORD God; As I live, surely they that are in the wastes shall fall by the sword, and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that be in the forts and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.
28 For I will lay the land [‘erets – the earth] most desolate, and the pomp of her strength shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall pass through [‘abar – from death into life].
29 Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.
30 Also, you son of man, the children of your people still are talking against you by the walls [of things that aren’t true] and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that comes forth from the LORD.
31 And they come unto you as the people comes, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear your words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goes after their covetousness [betsa’ – dishonesty].
32 And, lo, you are unto them as a very lovely song of one that has a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear your words, but they do them not.
33 And when this comes to pass, (lo, it will come [as it now has],) then shall they know that a prophet has been among them.
Isaiah 25
1 O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you, I will praise your name; for you have done wonderful things; your counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.
2 For you have made of a [corrupt] city a heap; of a defensed city a ruin: a palace of strangers [in power] to be no city; it shall never be built.
3 Therefore shall the strong people [strengthened with Your understanding] glorify you, the city of the terrible [‘ariyts] nations [who haven’t known the present LORD] shall fear you.
4 For you have been a strength to the poor [those without worldly power], a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast [ruwach – the evil spirit] of the terrible ones [‘ariyts] is as a storm against the wall [the houses in Matthew 7:24 thru 27].
5 You shall bring down [kana’ – vanquish, cause to bend their knee] the noise of strangers [who I never knew, as in Matthew 7:22 & 23], as the heat in a dry place [as fire from My mouth against these places that are without My word]; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud [the same fire against the vail covering this understanding]: the branch [zamiyr – only appearing here, meaning pruned, as in their words are cut off] of the terrible ones [‘ariyts] shall be brought low [‘anah – meaning when My people see and obey My commands, meaning “to eye or (generally) to heed, i.e. pay attention; by implication, to respond; by extens. to begin to speak; specifically to sing, shout, testify, announce“].
6 And in this mountain [the LORD’s perfected government] shall the LORD of hosts [I Am, a man of war] make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined [which are here and now freely given in word form].
7 And he will destroy in this mountain [His perfected government] the face [revealing His presence] of the covering [lowt] cast over [luwt] all people, and the vail [covering His presence and his sword, this word from My mouth] that is spread over all nations [all those who haven’t know My presence].
8 He will swallow up death in victory [netsach]; and the LORD God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD has spoken it.
9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
10 For in this mountain [His here perfected government – which is nothing like all the wise men, all the false prophets and false teachers, all the loudest and most heard voice, said and told, tell, people to look for and forever wait, which will never come, because they are fabrication of deluded minds] shall the hand [this work] of the LORD rest, and Moab [the mouth of men which are the gates of hell] shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
11 And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swims spreads forth his hands to swim [rightly dividing these waters on this day of My new creation, in the firmament, this exposition, which I call the new heaven]: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands.
12 And the fortress of the high fort of your walls [their house they built on sand] shall he bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.
The following, ending in Jeremiah 50, is from several previous posts showing the words lowt and luwt speak of the LORD concealing His presence, which He now reveals in a manner only He knows.
As we know from previous discussions, the “cover” (from the once used word lowt) “cast over” (from the three times used word luwt) all people, which the LORD removes, refer us to the other two times luwt appears.
In the first, 1 Samuel 22:9, it’s the “wrapping” David removes from the sword he took from Goliath, with which he cut off his head. The sword is then, in the following verses, revealed to be deception, which causes David’s enemies to disregard him.
1 Samuel 21
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you slew in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped [luwt] in a cloth behind the ephod: if you will take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me.
10 And David arose and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish [“I will blacken” hide myself in there ignorance, so they think I AM “only a man”] the king of Gath [“winepress,” as I come as judgment].
13 And he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.
14 Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, you see the man is mad: wherefore then have you brought him to me?
15 Have I need of mad men, that you have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?
The other use (of luwt) comes in 1 Kings 19:13, when Elijah (Jehovah is God) “wrapped” his face (paniym – presence) in his mantle (covering God’s glory in him), which (mantle) he later cast upon Elisha (God is Salvation).
Jeremiah 50
24 I have laid a snare for you, and you are also taken, O Babylon, and you were not aware: you are found, and also caught, because you have strived against the LORD.
25 The LORD has opened his armory, and has brought forth the weapons of his indignation [za’am]: for this is the work of the LORD God of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans [against those who’ve used their words to manipulate humanity into hell].
26 Come against her from the utmost border [qets – this full end], open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left.
27 Slay all her bullocks [those doing this work of misleading into hell]; let them go down to the slaughter: woe unto them! for their day is come, the time of their visitation [pquddah – now, when I Am here as the Chief Overseer of the earth].
28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to [open their mouth and] declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
29 Call together the archers against Babylon: all you that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she has done, do unto her: for she has been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, says the LORD.
31 Behold, I am against you, O you most proud, says the LORD God of hosts: for your day is come, the time that I will visit you.
32 And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
33 Thus says the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go.
34 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts [a man of war] is his name [My identity]: he shall thoroughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet [raqaz – pour His anger upon] the inhabitants of Babylon.
35 A sword [of David] is upon the Chaldeans, says the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.
36 A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
37 A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.
38 A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad [become insane] upon their idols.
39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited forever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
40 As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities thereof, says the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
41 Behold, a people shall come from the north [shall come out of ignorance], and a great [new] nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the coasts [the end of the old and corrupt, where their proud waves are stayed, beginning the new] of the earth.
42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not show mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, everyone put in array, like a man to the battle, [as My awakened army] against you, O daughter of Babylon.
43 The king of Babylon has heard the report [shama’ shema’ – understood and obeyed – acted knowing the time is of his end] of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish [tsarah – tribulation he caused] took hold [epithesis] of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail [fearing what they have brought forth].
44 Behold, he [the LORD, I Am] shall come up like a lion from [roaring against] the swelling [proud waves] of Jordan [words that carried all in the descent into death] unto the habitation of the strong [in power]: but I will make them [the wicked] suddenly run away from her [My people they have oppressed]: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint [paqad – who I will make Chief Overseer] over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me? [All these are references to Michael, who is like God and stands for God’s people in this time of Jacob’s trouble {tsarah}, and Shiloh, who comes as the shepherd and stone of God’s people – the king of peace, and king of righteousness, in the order of Melchizedek]
45 Therefore hear you the counsel of the LORD, that he has taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he has purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock [{as in Ahasuerus} “I will be silent and poor {without earthly power}”] shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
46 At the noise [qowl – the LORD’s voice] of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.
Matthew 7 [from the previous post]
13 Enter you in [into His presence] at the strait [stenos – avoiding the obstacles that attempt to block the] gate: for wide [platus – only used here, the same as plasso and plastos, meaning fabricated, fictitious, falsely formed] is the gate, and broad [euruchoros {eu-rhume-chora} – only used here, meaning crowding good into emptiness: making it without form] is the way, that leads [apago] to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait [stenos – wrought with these obstacles] is the gate, and narrow [thlibo – crowded with those who put their opinions in the place of truth] is the way, which leads [apago] unto life, and few there be that find it.
15 Beware of false prophets [speaking in the LORD’s name, or in the name of some other god they put in His place], which come to you in sheep’s clothing [disguised as a friend or neighbor, saying they are at peace with you, while they war against us, out better culture, and our nation], but inwardly they are ravening wolves [who will turn on you, and as the swine mentioned above, rend you: scattering you from the LORD and His ONE BODY, which only a chosen few find].
16 You shall know them by their fruits [karpos – the foundations of their mind revealed in their conversation]. Do men gather grapes of thorns [misleaders], or figs of thistles [deceivers]?
17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit [karpos]; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit [karpos].
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit [karpos], neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit [karpos].
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit [karpos] is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits [karpos] you shall know them.
21 Not every one that says unto me, LORD, LORD, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven [bringing forth the good fruit He has given us and commanded us to give it as received].
22 Many will say to me in that day, LORD, LORD, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you [I was never, and I Am not now, joined with you in your own evil works against me and My flock]: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a Rock [the sons from whom the Father’s word flows]:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a Rock.
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and does them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand [ammos – a-momos, only used five times, meaning they are those claiming they are flawless: infallible, as do the many religious of our time, saying they are without a beam in their eye]:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes [the know-it-alls].
Isaiah 42
1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; my elect [bachiyr – b’ah charar, enter by fire, the trial therein], in whom my soul delights; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
3 A bruised reed shall he not break [those, as Gideon’s three hundred, chosen at this water’s edge], and the smoking flax shall he not quench [but shall bring them to a bright flame again]: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth [‘emeth – this victory over death and hell].
4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles [the dry places of the earth, where they have been without this word] shall wait for his law.
5 Thus says God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out [in this exposition]; he that spread forth the earth, and that which comes out of it; he that gives breath [life by this light] unto the people upon it, and [His] spirit to them that walk therein:
6 I the LORD have called you in righteousness, and will hold your hand, and will keep you, and give you for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles [understanding to those who haven’t known Me];
7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness [the ignorant] out of the prison house.
8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
10 Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, you that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar [darkness] does inhabit: let the inhabitants of the Rock [from where this word flows] sing [repeat the words you’ve heard], let them shout from the top of the mountains [the LORD’s government].
12 Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands [the dry place where His word isn’t heard].
13 The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.
14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman [and bring forth the children the LORD has given me]; I will destroy and devour at once.
15 I will make waste mountains and hills [the corrupt government of church and state], and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the [their] rivers islands, and I will dry up the [their] pools.
16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light [will reveal to them these things they haven’t known because they’ve been hidden in the ignorance men created and taught] before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.
17 They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images [men created and put in My place], that say to the molten images [they formed], You are our gods.
18 Hear, you deaf; and look, you blind, that you may see.
19 Who is blind, but my servant [not seeing anything that the corrupt world sees]? or deaf [not hearing the corrupt words of men who’ve destroyed all truth], as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD’s servant?
20 Seeing many things, but you observe not [the idols of men]; opening the ears, but he hears not [the things of men].
21 The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness’ sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honorable.
22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivers; for a spoil, and none says, Restore [shuwb – return the understanding you have taken away].
23 Who among you will give ear to this [and hear the voice of the LORD]? who will hearken and hear [shama’ – and obey] for the time to come [‘achown – now in these last days of darkness]?
24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned [chata’ – to miss {his presence}]? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.
25 Therefore he has poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it has set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart [because they missed Him, not knowing Him or His manner].
Isaiah 43
1 But now thus says the LORD that created you, O Jacob, and he that formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name; you are mine.
2 When you pass [‘abar – from death into life] through the waters, I will be with you [as one that swims]; and through the rivers [in which flows the waters of death], they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon you.
3 For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior: I gave Egypt [your oppressor who are overflowed by My word, the sword they refuse] for your ransom, Ethiopia [those covered in their own darkness] and Seba [who I have made you drink of their own poisonous cup] for you.
4 Since you were precious in my sight, you have been honorable, and I have loved you: therefore will I give men for you, and people for your life.
5 Fear not: for I am with you: I will bring your seed from the east, and gather you from the west;
6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth [the end of the old and corrupt and beginning the new, wherein dwells righteousness];
7 Even every one that is called by my name [in whom My identity is declared and manifested]: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
9 Let all the nations [who haven’t know me] be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth [‘emeth – My victory over death and gates of hell].
10 You are my witnesses, says the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen [bachar – who have entered My presence in this trial by fire]: that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no savior.
12 I have declared [My presence in the flesh of My chosen], and have saved, and I have shown, when there was no strange god among you: therefore you are my witnesses, says the LORD, that I am God.
13 Yea, before the day was I Am he; and there is none that can deliver [natsal – the Hebrew equivalent harpazo {“caught up”}] out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it [shuwb – after My work, who shall, from My hand {work}, return to corruption]? [John 10: 26 But you believe not, because you are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck {harpazo} them out of my hand {work}. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck {harpazo} them out of my Father’s hand {work}. 30 I and my Father are one.]
14 Thus says the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon [this time when the earth is ruled by confusion and insanity], and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans [those who’ve used their untrue word to manipulate and control the world into death and hell], whose cry [words] is in the ships [the institutions of church and state they control].
15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.
16 Thus says the LORD, which makes a way in the sea [for humanity at large], and a path in the mighty waters [these words that are light and life];
17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power [as the army of Egypt]; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow [as smoking flax extinguished, so none any longer look to them for light].
18 Remember you not the former things, neither consider the things of old [the corrupted heaven and earth that are ending].
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers [these springs of life-giving water] in the desert.
20 The beast [who were lifeless flesh without My Spirit] of the field shall honor me, the dragons [tan – men who before were as whales and serpents devouring men and swallowing them into the belly of hell] and the owls [who before hunted souls in the darkness]: because I give [these life giving] waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen [bachiyr – those who’ve entered My presence in this trial by fire].
21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall show forth my praise.
22 But you have not called upon me, O Jacob; but you have been weary of me, O Israel.
23 You have not brought me the small cattle of your burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with an offering, nor wearied you with incense.
24 You have bought me no sweet cane with money, neither have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices: but you have made me to serve with your sins, you have wearied me with your iniquities. [When is it enough?]
25 I, even I, am he that blots out your transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember your sins.
26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare you, that you mayest be justified.
27 Your first father has sinned, and your teachers have transgressed against me.
28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
Isaiah 44
1 Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen [bachar – to enter My presence in the trial by fire]:
2 Thus says the LORD that made you, and formed you from the womb, which will help you; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and you, Jesurun [who shall prosper under Me], whom I have chosen [bachar].
3 For I will pour [these rightly divided] water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon your seed, and my blessing upon your offspring:
4 And they shall spring up as among the grass [on this third day of my new creation], as willows by the water courses.
5 One shall say, I am the LORD’s; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname [kanah] himself by the name of Israel.
6 Thus says the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
7 And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them show unto them.
8 Fear you not, neither be afraid: have not I told you from that time, and have declared it? you are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
Matthew 12
14 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
16 And charged them that they should not make him known:
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he sends forth judgment unto victory [nikos – truth].
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.
23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
24 But when the Pharisees [the religious dividers, who’ve scattered God’s people] heard it, they said, This fellow does not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
Friends, the prominent and powerful, the wise of this world, whose mouths are always open, wizards of our time, by their muttering and peeping, show themselves without light, not knowing the time or the present LORD, continually bark into the darkness and not according to this word.
Isaiah 8
15 And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
16 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.
17 And I will wait upon the LORD, that hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
18 Behold, I and the children whom the LORD has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwells in mount Zion.
19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits [the known dead], and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? [but instead, they continue looking] for the living to the dead?
20 [Shouldn’t they be looking] To the [this] law and to the [this] testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light [understanding] in them.
21 And they shall pass through it [‘abar – and {according to this word they could} passover from death into life], hardly bestead [but instead they became stiff necked] and hungry [and refused this word of God]: and it shall come to pass [hayah – and they became], that when they shall be hungry [refusing this word], they shall fret themselves [the word became wrath upon them], and curse their king and their God [who they don’t know and who they reject], and [not knowing His presence among them, they] look upward.
22 And they shall look unto the [corrupt powers of] earth; and behold trouble [tsarah – tribulation] and darkness [ignorance], dimness of anguish [they are covered by the shadow of these obstacles]; and they shall be driven to darkness [into insanity].
Isaiah 9
1 Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward [this refers to when Jehu gathered all those in Samaria worshiping Baal in the LORD’s place and destroyed them] did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan [after the teaching of false gods, the peeping and muttering wizards, carried all into spiritual death], in Galilee of the nations [and none knew the LORD or heard and understood His word].
2 The people that walked in darkness [in this ignorance] have seen a great light [are given understanding according to this word]: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them has the light shined [this law and testimony].
3 You [LORD] have multiplied the nation [grew the population while they were ignorant of you], and not increased the joy [and none realize Your presence among them]: they joy before you according to the joy in harvest [receiving this word you have gathered and given to them, and they still don’t accept it as Your presence manifested], and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
4 For you have broken the yoke of his burden [the corruption of those they were joined with and followed into darkness], and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor [the tyrants in power], as in the day of Midian [calling Your people to join You in this battle against those causing constant agitation and removing peace].
5 For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire [this word from the mouth of the LORD].
6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his [now perfected] government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts [I Am, a man of war] will perform this.
8 The LORD sent a word into Jacob, and it has lighted upon [those who surname themselves as] Israel.
9 And all the people shall know, even Ephraim [all God’s people in this generation] and the inhabitant of Samaria [who are in ignorance worshipping idols men created and put in the LORD’s place], that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,
10 The bricks are fallen down, but we [the destroyers in power who led the world into this fall] will build with hewn stones [with the same hands make new creations – “build back better”]: the sycamores are cut down [the so-called upright among them, who aren’t], but we will change them into cedars [rename them something they aren’t, destroyers calling themselves builders].
11 Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin [who will be firmly] against him [against the globalist communists here in power], and join his enemies [Russia & China] together [as it is this day];
12 The Syrians [the foreign enemies] before, and the Philistines [the invading enemy army mixed among us] behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his [the LORD’s] anger [against the communists in power oppressing His people] is not turned away, but his hand [His work to save those who receive it] is stretched out still [in peace and friendship].
13 For the people turn not unto him [the communists in power] that smite them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.
14 Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
15 The ancient and honorable, he is the head; and the [false] prophet[s] that teaches lies, he is the tail.
16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.
17 Therefore the LORD shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one [following them into destruction, while refusing the LORD‘s offer of rescue] is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly [peeping and muttering as their teachers taught them]. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [his word and work] is stretched out still.
18 For wickedness burns as the fire: it shall devour the briers [deceivers] and thorns [misleaders], and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest [among the falsely so-called upright], and they [these men as they are burning up] shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke [and in which none can see the way].
19 Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother.
20 And he shall snatch [be divided] on the right hand, and be hungry [still refusing to hear and obey this word]; and he shall eat [the words of deceivers] on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied [never say it is enough – see Provers 30 below]: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm [not knowing they are all one body]:
21 Manasseh [this generation that has forgotten the LORD], Ephraim [God’s people still worshipping idols and the lies they’ve taught]; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah [the every small elect remnant]. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still [offering peace, which He doesn’t hold back from any who will receive Him].
Proverbs 30
11 There is a generation [now upon the earth] that curses their father [rejecting His knowledge and understanding], and does not bless their mother [their teacher who teaches them wisdom].
12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness [corruption that defiles their minds and scatters the ONE BODY].
13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth [with the words of their mouth], and the needy from among men.
15 The horse-leach [that attach themselves to the mouths of those who drink from their waters, draining their life from them and those who follow them] has two daughters, crying, Give, give [calling themselves teachers, evangelists, and experts, all while asking for money from those they give their evil advice]. There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough [are never satisfied – ever learning and never able to reach understanding the truth]:
16 The grave [sheol – hell]; and the barren womb [those in hell who never obey and never bring any to life]; the earth that is not filled with water [this word of God, which the dead who call themselves His people refuse to give as He commands]; and the fire that says not [even while they are being consumed by it], It is enough [they are never satisfied, ever learning, in the experience, but never able to come to the understating of this truth].
17 The eye that mocks at his father, and despises to obey [yiqqahah] his mother, the ravens of the valley [those covered in darkness, the shadows of the mountains {those in high places misleading them}, of the earth] shall pick it out [their eyes, blinding them with learned ignorance], and the young eagles shall eat it [‘akal – as they fly in heaven, with the LORD and His full understanding, consuming the darkness with the fire from their mouths].
18 There be three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I know not:
19 The way of an eagle in the air [the strong here in heaven with the LORD, relentlessly doing His work as He commanded]; the way of a serpent upon a rock [the deceivers in the false church, in whom God’s dead people put their trust]; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea [the institutions of church and state government, ruling over the people who under them are held in its darkened deep]; and the way of a man [geber – the LORD who is {alive in} a mighty man of war] with a maid [‘almah – the seven times used word, which last appears in Isaiah 7:14, saying “Therefore the LORD himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin {‘almah} shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”].
20 Such is the way of an adulterous woman [the unfaithful church that has left the LORD and now follows men who put themselves in His place]; she eats [corruption], and wipe her mouth, and says, I have done no wickedness.
21 For three things the earth is disquieted, and for four which it cannot bear:
22 For a servant when he reigns [without the LORD’s anointing]; and a fool when he is filled with meat [thinking he is wise and has understanding, because of his success using his dark decrees by which he misleads];
23 For an odious woman when she is married [the corrupt church joined with devils, those confederate with the communists now in power]; and a handmaid [the ONE BODY of Christ, now in hard bondage under the corrupt and false] that is heir to her mistress [the corrupt church she will replace when she receives and obeys Her LORD].
24 There be four things which are little [in value] upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:
25 The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat [lechem – bread] in the summer [so they have plenty when the time of need comes];
26 The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks [a good foundation upon which they stand];
27 The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands [all-consuming in their season];
28 The spider takes hold with her hands, and is in kings’ palaces [yet my people refuse to take hold of these ideas and enter Mine].
29 There be three things which go well, yea, four are comely in going:
30 A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turns not away for any [relentlessly going forward];
31 A greyhound [zarziyr – this is a cheetah, quickest to the prey]; a he goat also [who knows His place is at the head of the flock, to lead it into good pasture]; and a king [in which the LORD lives and reigns], against whom there is no rising up.
32 If you have done foolishly in lifting up yourself [against Him], or if you have thought evil [and led against Him], lay your hand upon your mouth.
33 Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter [working in these foundational ideas causes their elements to congeal into understanding], and the wringing of the nose [wrestling against the LORD’s presence you should by now perceive] brings forth blood: so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife.
Revelation 19
1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; 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, Alleluia And her smoke rose up for ever 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; Alleluia.
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 thunderings, saying, Alleluia [Praise Yahh]: for the LORD God omnipotent reigns [His government is perfected in praising Him – Halel Yahh, to whom it appertains – Matthew 21:16 And said unto him, Hear you what these say {“Save now son of David”}? And Jesus says unto them, Yea; have you never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings you have perfected praise? See Psalms 8:2 below].
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 [become His ONE flesh BODY]. 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 am saying to 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 [which only He knows, and is alive in me doing His work revealing Himself in His word].
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean [purified from all corruption].
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 fly in the midst of heaven [by the strength of His full understanding], Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18 That you may [swallowing death in victory] 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 [the confusion that rules the world, deluding all institutions of church and state], 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[s] that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark [of confusion in their head and hand, in their ideas and works, the fruits {karpos – heart-light} by which they are known] 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 [swallowing up death in victory].
Psalms 21
1 The king shall joy in your strength, O LORD; and in your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.
3 For you prevent [go before] him with the blessings of goodness: you set a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 He asked life of you, and you gave it him, even length of days forever and ever.
5 His glory is great in your salvation: honor and majesty have you laid upon him.
6 For you have made him most blessed forever: you have made him exceeding glad with your countenance [paniym – Your presence in me].
7 For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Your hand shall find out all your enemies: your right hand shall find out those that hate you.
9 You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger [paniym – the time of Your presence manifested]: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire [from His mouth] shall devour them.
10 Their fruit [by the darkness of their hearts] shall you destroy [them] from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
11 For they intended evil against you: they imagined a mischievous device [to use darkness and deceit to rule the world], which they are not able to perform.
12 Therefore shall you make them turn their back, when you shall make ready your arrows upon your strings against the face of [paniym – through Your presence and anger against] them.
13 Be you exalted [Your voice above all others], LORD, in your own strength [the understanding only You possess]: so will we sing [these same words] and praise your power [to change heaven and earth].
Psalms 8
A Psalms of David
1 O LORD, our LORD, how excellent is your name in all the earth! who have set your glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings have you ordained strength because of your enemies, that you might still [shabath – stop the work of] the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars [governments of state and church], which you have ordained [to rule with truth and justice, to secure the rights your given man, as you rule];
4 What is man, that you are mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit him [paqad – make your presence known in me, as the Chief Overseer of the earth, to reset the right foundations of the earth]?
5 For you have made him a little lower than the angels [chacer ‘elohiym – as planned, lacking the full understanding which only God possesses], and have [by giving me, and all who through me receive it from Him, this understanding] crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You made him to have dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet:
7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea [all the beasts of the earth, including men, all without the LORD’s Spirit], and whatsoever passes through [‘abar – all that Passover into life in this resurrection from death] the paths [‘orach – as pilgrims traveling] of the seas [through the ages and generations].
9 O LORD [Jehovah] our LORD [‘adown – our King], how excellent is your name [identity – seeing Your presence] in all the earth!
To the chief Musician [natsach – Chief Overseer] upon Muth-labben [upon the death of Goliath, cutting off his head with this sword]
