15 They take up all of them with a hook,
They catch them in their net,
And gather them in their dragnet.
Therefore they rejoice and are glad.
They catch them in their net,
And gather them in their dragnet.
Therefore they rejoice and are glad.
16 Therefore athey sacrifice to their net,
And burn incense to their dragnet;
Because by them their share is1 sumptuous
And their food plentiful.
And burn incense to their dragnet;
Because by them their share is1 sumptuous
And their food plentiful.
17 Shall they therefore empty their net,
And continue to slay nations without pity?
And continue to slay nations without pity?
