¹ And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp sword; `as' a barber's razor shalt thou take it unto thee, and shalt cause it to pass upon thy head and upon thy beard: then take thee balances to weigh, and divide the hair.

⁵ They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.

²⁰ In that day will the Lord shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, `even' with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.

²⁰ Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only cut off the hair of their heads.

²⁷ TEKEL; thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
