The Tanach, with the evidence built in
This is the complete Hebrew Bible in the Jewish Publication Society translation. Wherever a real archaeological find bears on the text, those words are underlined in gold✦. Hover over them or tap them to see the artifact and what it confirms. From there, Next find takes you to the next underline, so you can tour a whole book’s evidence, and the share button turns the verse into an image.
Each chapter lists its finds under its title, and the chapter picker shows how many finds every book and chapter has. The AA button sets the text size, light or dark, and English, Hebrew, or the two together.
Chapter 18
1Ah,land in the deep shadow of wings,Beyond the rivers of Nubia!
2Go, swift messengers,To a nation far and remote,To a people thrust forth and away—A nation of gibber and chatter—Whose land is cut off by streams;Which sends out envoys by sea,In papyrus vessels upon the water!
3[Say this:]“All you who live in the worldAnd inhabit the earth,When a flag is raised in the hills, take note!When a ram’s horn is blown, give heed!”
4For thus the LORD said to me:“I rest calm and confident in My habitation—Like a scorching heat upon sprouts,Like a rain-cloud in the heat of reaping time.”
5For before the harvest, yet after the budding,When the blossom has hardened into berries,He will trim away the twigs with pruning hooks,And lop off the trailing branches.
6They shall all be leftTo the kites of the hillsAnd to the beasts of the earth;The kites shall summer on themAnd all the beasts of the earth shall winter on them.
7In that time,Tribute shall be brought to the LORD of Hosts[From] a people far and remote,From a people thrust forth and away—A nation of gibber and chatter,Whose land is cut off by streams—At the place where the name of the LORD of Hosts abides,At Mount Zion.
