FOOTNOTES:

And I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her
streets
The plague and the sword, which are two of God's sore judgments, and often go together; the pestilence slays them that are within, and the sword those the enemy meets with in the streets: and the wounded shall be judged;
that is, punished; or "shall fall" {w}, die and perish: in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side;

who am able to foretell things to come, and to accomplish them.

Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In My gathering the house of Israel, Out of the peoples among whom they were scattered, I have been sanctified in them, Before the eyes of the nations, And they have dwelt on their ground, That I gave to My servant, to Jacob,
