NEW TESTAMENT

Twelve Thousand Sealed from Each Tribe (12,000 X 12 tribes of Israel sealed = 144,000)

7 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

² And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah): and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

³ Saying, Hurt not (Do not hurt) the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we (until We) have sealed the servants of our God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) in their foreheads.

⁴ And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand (144,000) of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

⁵ Of the tribe of Juda (Judah) were sealed twelve thousand (12,000). Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand (12,000). Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand (12,000).

A Multitude in White Robes

⁹ After this I beheld (saw), and, lo (look), a great multitude (crowd), which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds (tribes), and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb (Yahusha ha’Mashiach), clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

(NOTE: throne (noun) = seat of royalty)

¹⁰ And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) which sitteth upon (who sits on) the throne, and unto the Lamb (Yahusha ha’Mashiach).

¹¹ And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah),

¹² Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) for ever and ever. Amen.

¹³ And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed (displayed) in white robes? and whence came they?

¹⁴ And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest (you know). And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation (suffering), and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb (Yahusha ha’Mashiach).

¹⁵ Therefore are they before the throne of God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and serve him (Him) day and night in his (His) temple: and he that sitteth (and He who sits) on the throne shall dwell (live) among them.

¹⁶ They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

¹⁷ For the Lamb (Yahusha ha’Mashiach) which (who) is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

Judgment on the Women of Samaria

4 Hear this word, ye (you) kine (cows [women]) of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress (who cause hardship to) the poor, which (who) crush the needy, which (who) say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.

² The Lord God (Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄) hath (has) sworn by his (His) holiness, that, lo (look), the days shall come upon you, that he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity with fishhooks.

³ And ye (you) shall go out at the breaches, every cow at that which is before her; and ye (you) shall cast them into the palace, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

⁴ Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal [where idols are worshiped] multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices every morning, and your tithes after three years:

(NOTE: tithe (noun) = One tenth of annual produce or earnings taken as a tax for the support of the church and clergy)

⁵ And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free offerings: for this liketh you, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord God (for this you so love to do, O children of Israel, says Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄).

The Chastening of the LORD (ADONAI)

⁶ And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places: yet have ye (you) not returned unto me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

⁷ And also I have withholden (withheld) the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered (dried up).

⁸ So two or three cities wandered unto one city, to drink water; but they were not satisfied: yet have ye (you) not returned unto me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

⁹ I have smitten (stricken) you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased, the palmerworm devoured them: yet have ye (you) not returned unto me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

¹⁰ I have sent among you the pestilence (plague, epidemic, pandemic, contagious disease) after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain (killed) with the sword, and have taken away your horses; and I have made the stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils: yet have ye (you) not returned unto me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

¹¹ I have overthrown some of you, as God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye (you) were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning: yet have ye (you) not returned unto me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

(NOTE: Sodom and Gomorrha (Gomorrah) (proper nouns) = The twin cities that God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) destroyed completely due to sexual immoral sins (homosexuality) – Genesis 19)

Prepare to Meet Your God (Elohim)

¹² Therefore thus will I do unto thee (you), O Israel: and because I will do this unto thee (you), prepare to meet thy (your) God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), O Israel.

¹³ For, lo (look), he that formeth (forms) the mountains, and createth (creates) the wind, and declareth (declares) unto man what is his thought, that maketh (makes) the morning darkness, and treadeth (treads) upon the high places of the earth, The Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), The God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of hosts, is his (His) name.

A Lamentation for Israel

5 Hear ye (you) this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.

² The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.

³ For thus saith (says) the Lord God (Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄); The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an (a) hundred, and that which went forth by an (a) hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.

Seek the LORD (ADONAI) and Live

⁴ For thus saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) unto the house of Israel, Seek ye (you) me (Me), and ye (you) shall live:

⁵ But seek not Bethel [to worship the golden calf], nor enter into [idolatrous] Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought (nothing).

⁶ Seek the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and ye (you) shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel.

⁷ Ye (You) who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,

⁸ Seek him that maketh (makes) the seven stars and Orion, and turneth (turns) the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh (makes) the day dark with night: that calleth (calls) for the waters of the sea, and poureth (pours) them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) is his (His) name:

⁹ That strengtheneth (strengthens) the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.

¹⁰ They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly (And they detest him who speaks [the truth] with integrity and honesty).

¹¹ Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye (you) take from him burdens of wheat: ye (you) have built houses of hewn stone, but ye (you) shall not dwell in them; ye (you) have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye (you) shall not drink wine of them.

¹² For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.

¹³ Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.

¹⁴ Seek good, and not evil, that ye (you) may live: and so the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), the God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of hosts, shall be with you, as ye (you) have spoken.

¹⁵ Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the Lord God (Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄) of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.

God (Elohim) Will Pass in Judgment

¹⁶ Therefore the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), the God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of hosts, the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), saith (says) thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.

¹⁷ And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee (you), saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

¹⁸ Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah)! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) is darkness, and not light.

¹⁹ As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

²⁰ Shall not the day of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

²¹ I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.

²² Though ye (you) offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.

²³ Take thou (you) away from me the noise of thy (your) songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy (your) viols.

²⁴ But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.

²⁵ Have ye (you) offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

²⁶ But ye (you) have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun (Kayyun [your man-made gods of Saturn]) your images, the star of your god (your star-god), which ye (you) made to yourselves.

²⁷ Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), whose name is The God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of hosts.

At Ease in Zion

6 Woe (Great sorrow) to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!

² Pass ye (you) unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye (you) to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?

³ Ye (You) that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;

⁴ That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;

⁵ That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of musick (music), like David;

⁶ That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

⁷ Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.

⁸ The Lord God (Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄) hath (has) sworn by himself, saith the Lord the God of hosts (says Adonai the Elohim or army), I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.

(AMP Bible: ⁸ The Lord God has sworn [an oath] by Himself—the Lord God of hosts, says: “I loathe and reject the [self-centered] arrogance of Jacob (Israel), And I hate his palaces and citadels; Therefore, I shall hand over the [idolatrous] city [of Samaria] with all that it contains [to the Assyrian invaders].”)

⁹ And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.

¹⁰ And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth (who burns) him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with thee (you)? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy (your) tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

¹¹ For, behold, the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) commandeth (commands), and he will smite (strike) the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.

¹² Shall horses run upon the rock? will one plow there with oxen? for ye (you) have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:

¹³ Ye (You) which rejoice in a thing of nought (nothing), which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?

¹⁴ But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) the God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of hosts; and they shall afflict (cause suffering to) you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.

Yahushua יהושוע (Hebrew 3091) as spelled in this manner (without the niqqud) depicts the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yah יה (Hebrew 3050) means The Creator. Yahushua means Yah [I] cry out.

Yah יה (Hebrew 3050) is made of י (y = Yad) & הּ (ah = Hay) which means YAH (יה = The Creator),

u ו (u = Uau) = add

shua שוע (Hebrew 7769) = to cry out > ש (sh = Shan / Shin) + u ו (u = Uau) + ע (a = Ayin)

4. SPELLING VERSION #4:-

Yahusha (יהושע) as spelled in this manner (without the niqqud) depicts the Messiah came in the name of His Father and according to the original Pictographic Hebrew. Yahusha means Yahuah saves.

Yah יה (Hebrew 3050) is made of י (y = Yad) & הּ (ah = Hay) which means YAH (יה = The Creator),

u ו (u = Uau) = add

sha שע (sh = Shan / Shin) + ע (a = Ayin) (NOTE: The ‘sha‘ here comes from the root word Yasha)

¹⁷ For God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) sent not his (did not send His) Son into the world to condemn (disapprove) the world; but that the world through him (Him) might be saved.
