Wayyar [and looked] ‘Elohiym  toward ha’arets [the land] and behold  it was ruined  because each flesh had ruined his way over ha'arets [the land]

Wayyomer [and said] ‘Elohiym  yiqqawu [let wait, let stay] the mayim [waters]  under the shamayim [sky, heavens]  to one place  and appear hayyabbashah [the dryness]  wayhi [and there was] such

"Before she goes into labor, she gives birth; Before the pains come upon her, she delivers a son. Who has ever heard of such things? Who has ever seen things like this? Can a country be born in a day Or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Yet no sooner is Zion in labor Than she gives birth to her children. Do I bring to the moment of birth and not give delivery?" says the LORD. "Do I close up the womb when I bring delivery?" says your God.

O land, land, land,  hear the word of the LORD!  Thus says the LORD:  Record this man as childless,  a man who shall not succeed in his days;  for none of his offspring shall succeed  in sitting on the throne of David,  and ruling again in Judah.” 

“Listen, a noise on the mountains,  Like that of a great multitude!  Listen, an uproar among the kingdoms,  Like nations massing together! 

The LORD Almighty is mustering an army for war. 

They come from faraway lands,  From the ends of the heavens --  The LORD and the weapons of his wrath --  To destroy the whole country.”
