“‘ See, the day! See, it comes! Doom has burst forth, the rod has budded, arrogance has blossomed!

“‘ The day for me to punish you is here! It is here! Death has arrived. The time is ripe for you to be judged. Your pride has grown so much that you will be destroyed.

“ Behold, the day! Behold, it comes! Your doom has come; the rod has blossomed; pride has budded.

“ The day of judgment is here; your destruction awaits! The people’s wickedness and pride have blossomed to full flower.

Here is the day! Here it comes! Doom is on its way. The rod has blossomed; arrogance has bloomed.

‘ Behold, the day! Behold, it has come! Doom has gone out; The rod has blossomed, Pride has budded.

Behold, the day, behold, it cometh: thy doom is gone forth; the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.

Look, the day is coming! Doom has gone out. The rod has blossomed; arrogance has bloomed.

Behold the day, behold, it is come: the morning is gone forth; the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.

“ Look, the day! Look, it is coming! Doom has gone out! The staff has budded, pride has blossomed!

“‘ Behold, the day! Behold, it comes! Your doom has gone out. The rod has blossomed. Pride has budded.

Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger And the staff in whose hands is My indignation,

And fire has gone out from its stem; It has consumed its shoots and fruit, So that there is no strong stem in it, A scepter to rule.’ ” This is a song of mourning, and has become a song of mourning.

Sharpened to make a slaughter, Polished to flash like lightning!’ Or shall we rejoice, the rod of My son despising every tree?

In the mouth of the foolish is a rod for his back, But the lips of the wise will protect them.

Woe to the proud crown of the habitually drunk of Ephraim, And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley Of those who are overcome with wine!

For there is a testing; and what if even the rod which despises will cease to be?” declares the Lord God.

But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says,“ God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt, and honor the King of heaven, for all His works are true and His ways just; and He is able to humble those who walk in pride.”

Then I will punish their wrongdoing with the rod, And their guilt with afflictions.

An end is coming; the end has come! It has awakened against you; behold, it has come!

Now on the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony; and behold, Aaron’s staff for the house of Levi had sprouted and produced buds and bloomed with blossoms, and it yielded ripe almonds.

Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.

While they are saying,“ Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction will come upon them like labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
