A prophecy concerning the animals of the Negev: Through a land of hardship and distress, of lions and lionesses, of adders and darting snakes, the envoys carry their riches on donkeys’ backs, their treasures on the humps of camels, to that unprofitable nation,

Here is a prophecy the Lord gave me about the animals in the Negev Desert. Judah’s messengers carry their riches on the backs of donkeys. They carry their treasures on the humps of camels. They travel through a land of danger and suffering. It’s a land filled with lions. Poisonous snakes are also there. The messengers travel to a nation that can’t do them any good.

An oracle on the beasts of the Negeb. Through a land of trouble and anguish, from where come the lioness and the lion, the adder and the flying fiery serpent, they carry their riches on the backs of donkeys, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people that cannot profit them.

This message came to me concerning the animals in the Negev: The caravan moves slowly across the terrible desert to Egypt— donkeys weighed down with riches and camels loaded with treasure— all to pay for Egypt’s protection. They travel through the wilderness, a place of lionesses and lions, a place where vipers and poisonous snakes live. All this, and Egypt will give you nothing in return.

who led you through that great and terrible wilderness, in which were fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty land where there was no water; who brought water for you out of the flinty rock;

Bel bows down, Nebo stoops; Their idols were on the beasts and on the cattle. Your carriages were heavily loaded, A burden to the weary beast.They stoop, they bow down together; They could not deliver the burden, But have themselves gone into captivity.

which I commanded your fathers in the day I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying,‘ Obey My voice, and do according to all that I command you; so shall you be My people, and I will be your God,’

But the Lord has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be His people, an inheritance, as you are this day.

For they have gone up to Assyria, Like a wild donkey alone by itself; Ephraim has hired lovers.Yes, though they have hired among the nations, Now I will gather them; And they shall sorrow a little, Because of the burden of the king of princes.

She came to Jerusalem with a very great retinue, with camels that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones; and when she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart.

Then Asa brought silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the Lord and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben-Hadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying,

So the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.Therefore the people came to Moses, and said,“ We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you; pray to the Lord that He take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people.

And the taskmasters of the people and their officers went out and spoke to the people, saying,“ Thus says Pharaoh:‘ I will not give you straw.Go, get yourselves straw where you can find it; yet none of your work will be reduced.’”So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble instead of straw.And the taskmasters forced them to hurry, saying,“ Fulfill your work, your daily quota, as when there was straw.”Also the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten and were asked,“ Why have you not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and today, as before?”Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried out to Pharaoh, saying,“ Why are you dealing thus with your servants?There is no straw given to your servants, and they say to us,‘ Make brick!’ And indeed your servants are beaten, but the fault is in your own people.”But he said,“ You are idle! Idle! Therefore you say,‘ Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.’Therefore go now and work; for no straw shall be given you, yet you shall deliver the quota of bricks.”And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble after it was said,“ You shall not reduce any bricks from your daily quota.”Then, as they came out from Pharaoh, they met Moses and Aaron who stood there to meet them.And they said to them,“ Let the Lord look on you and judge, because you have made us abhorrent in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us.”

“ Ephraim feeds on the wind, And pursues the east wind; He daily increases lies and desolation. Also they make a covenant with the Assyrians, And oil is carried to Egypt.

And the Egyptians I will give Into the hand of a cruel master, And a fierce king will rule over them,” Says the Lord, the Lord of hosts.

Also Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came to him and distressed him, and did not assist him.For Ahaz took part of the treasures from the house of the Lord, from the house of the king, and from the leaders, and he gave it to the king of Assyria; but he did not help him.Now in the time of his distress King Ahaz became increasingly unfaithful to the Lord. This is that King Ahaz.For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had defeated him, saying,“ Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me.” But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel.

Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem to test Solomon with hard questions, having a very great retinue, camels that bore spices, gold in abundance, and precious stones; and when she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart.

You went to the king with ointment, And increased your perfumes; You sent your messengers far off, And even descended to Sheol.

And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage— in mortar, in brick, and in all manner of service in the field. All their service in which they made them serve was with rigor.

Therefore the abundance they have gained, And what they have laid up, They will carry away to the Brook of the Willows.

The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.

Then they will look to the earth, and see trouble and darkness, gloom of anguish; and they will be driven into darkness.

But he shall not multiply horses for himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt to multiply horses, for the Lord has said to you,‘ You shall not return that way again.’

Neither did they say,‘ Where is the Lord, Who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, Who led us through the wilderness, Through a land of deserts and pits, Through a land of drought and the shadow of death, Through a land that no one crossed And where no one dwelt?’
