Jeremiah 49:31

Arise, get you up unto the wealthy nation, that dwelleth without care, saith the LORD, which have neither gates nor bars, [which] dwell alone.

Arise {H6965}, get you up {H5927} unto the wealthy {H7961} nation {H1471}, that dwelleth {H3427} without care {H983}, saith {H5002} the LORD {H3068}, which have neither gates {H1817} nor bars {H1280}, which dwell {H7931} alone {H910}.

Get up! March on a nation at ease, that lives secure," says ADONAI. "They have neither gates nor bars; they live in isolation.

Rise up, advance against a nation at ease, one that dwells securely,” declares the LORD. “They have no gates or bars; they live alone.

Arise, get you up unto a nation that is at ease, that dwelleth without care, saith Jehovah; that have neither gates nor bars, that dwell alone.
