1. הֹוי הַחֹקְקִים חִקְקֵי־אָוֶן וּמְכַתְּבִים עָמָל כִּתֵּבוּ׃
1. Woe H1945 unto them that decree H2710 unrighteous H205 decrees H2711 , and that write H3789 grievousness H5999 which they have prescribed H3789 ;
2. לְהַטֹּות מִדִּין דַּלִּים וְלִגְזֹל מִשְׁפַּט עֲנִיֵּי עַמִּי לִהְיֹות אַלְמָנֹות שְׁלָלָם וְאֶת־יְתֹומִים יָבֹזּוּ׃
2. To turn aside H5186 the needy H1800 from judgment H4480 H1779 , and to take away H1497 the right H4941 from the poor H6041 of my people H5971 , that widows H490 may be H1961 their prey H7998 , and that they may rob H962 the fatherless H3490 !
3. וּמַה־תַּעֲשׂוּ לְיֹום פְּקֻדָּה וּלְשֹׁואָה מִמֶּרְחָק תָּבֹוא עַל־מִי תָּנוּסוּ לְעֶזְרָה וְאָנָה תַעַזְבוּ כְּבֹודְכֶם׃
3. And what H4100 will ye do H6213 in the day H3117 of visitation H6486 , and in the desolation H7722 which shall come H935 from far H4480 H4801 ? to H5921 whom H4310 will ye flee H5127 for help H5833 ? and where H575 will ye leave H5800 your glory H3519 ?
4. בִּלְתִּי כָרַע תַּחַת אַסִּיר וְתַחַת הֲרוּגִים יִפֹּלוּ בְּכָל־זֹאת לֹא־שָׁב אַפֹּו וְעֹוד יָדֹו נְטוּיָה׃ ס
4. Without H1115 me they shall bow down H3766 under H8478 the prisoners H616 , and they shall fall H5307 under H8478 the slain H2026 . For all H3605 this H2063 his anger H639 is not H3808 turned away H7725 , but his hand H3027 is stretched out H5186 still H5750 .
5. הֹוי אַשּׁוּר שֵׁבֶט אַפִּי וּמַטֶּה־הוּא בְיָדָם זַעְמִי׃
5. O Assyrian H804 , the rod H7626 of mine anger H639 , and the staff H4294 in their hand H3027 is mine indignation H2195 .
6. בְּגֹוי חָנֵף אֲשַׁלְּחֶנּוּ וְעַל־עַם עֶבְרָתִי אֲצַוֶּנּוּ לִשְׁלֹל שָׁלָל וְלָבֹז בַּז וּלְשִׂימֹו כ (וּלְשׂוּמֹו ק) מִרְמָס כְּחֹמֶר חוּצֹות׃
6. I will send H7971 him against a hypocritical H2611 nation H1471 , and against H5921 the people H5971 of my wrath H5678 will I give him a charge H6680 , to take H7997 the spoil H7998 , and to take H962 the prey H957 , and to tread them down H4823 like the mire H2563 of the streets H2351 .
7. וְהוּא לֹא־כֵן יְדַמֶּה וּלְבָבֹו לֹא־כֵן יַחְשֹׁב כִּי לְהַשְׁמִיד בִּלְבָבֹו וּלְהַכְרִית גֹּויִם לֹא מְעָט׃
7. Howbeit he H1931 meaneth H1819 not H3808 so H3651 , neither H3808 doth his heart H3824 think H2803 so H3651 ; but H3588 it is in his heart H3824 to destroy H8045 and cut off H3772 nations H1471 not H3808 a few H4592 .
8. כִּי יֹאמַר הֲלֹא שָׂרַי יַחְדָּו מְלָכִים׃
8. For H3588 he saith H559 , Are not H3808 my princes H8269 altogether H3162 kings H4428 ?
9. הֲלֹא כְּכַרְכְּמִישׁ כַּלְנֹו אִם־לֹא כְאַרְפַּד חֲמָת אִם־לֹא כְדַמֶּשֶׂק שֹׁמְרֹון׃
9. Is not H3808 Calno H3641 as Carchemish H3751 ? is not H3808 Hamath H2574 as Arpad H774 ? is not H3808 Samaria H8111 as Damascus H1834 ?
10. כַּאֲשֶׁר מָצְאָה יָדִי לְמַמְלְכֹת הָאֱלִיל וּפְסִילֵיהֶם מִירוּשָׁלִַם וּמִשֹּׁמְרֹון׃
10. As H834 my hand H3027 hath found H4672 the kingdoms H4467 of the idols H457 , and whose graven images H6456 did excel them of Jerusalem H4480 H3389 and of Samaria H4480 H8111 ;
11. הֲלֹא כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתִי לְשֹׁמְרֹון וְלֶאֱלִילֶיהָ כֵּן אֶעֱשֶׂה לִירוּשָׁלִַם וְלַעֲצַבֶּיהָ׃ ס
11. Shall I not H3808 , as H834 I have done H6213 unto Samaria H8111 and her idols H457 , so H3651 do H6213 to Jerusalem H3389 and her idols H6091 ?
12. וְהָיָה כִּי־יְבַצַּע אֲדֹנָי אֶת־כָּל־מַעֲשֵׂהוּ בְּהַר צִיֹּון וּבִירוּשָׁלִָם אֶפְקֹד עַל־פְּרִי־גֹדֶל לְבַב מֶלֶךְ־אַשּׁוּר וְעַל־תִּפְאֶרֶת רוּם עֵינָיו׃
12. Wherefore it shall come to pass H1961 , that when H3588 the Lord H136 hath performed H1214 his H853 whole H3605 work H4639 upon mount H2022 Zion H6726 and on Jerusalem H3389 , I will punish H6485 H5921 the fruit H6529 of the stout H1433 heart H3824 of the king H4428 of Assyria H804 , and H5921 the glory H8597 of his high H7312 looks H5869 .
13. כִּי אָמַר בְּכֹחַ יָדִי עָשִׂיתִי וּבְחָכְמָתִי כִּי נְבֻנֹותִי וְאָסִיר ׀ גְּבוּלֹת עַמִּים וַעֲתִידֹתֵיהֶם כ (וַעֲתוּדֹותֵיהֶם ק) שֹׁושֵׂתִי וְאֹורִיד כַּאבִּיר יֹושְׁבִים׃
13. For H3588 he saith H559 , By the strength H3581 of my hand H3027 I have done H6213 it , and by my wisdom H2451 ; for H3588 I am prudent H995 : and I have removed H5493 the bounds H1367 of the people H5971 , and have robbed H8154 their treasures H6259 , and I have put down H3381 the inhabitants H3427 like a valiant H47 man :
14. וַתִּמְצָא כַקֵּן ׀ יָדִי לְחֵיל הָעַמִּים וְכֶאֱסֹף בֵּיצִים עֲזֻבֹות כָּל־הָאָרֶץ אֲנִי אָסָפְתִּי וְלֹא הָיָה נֹדֵד כָּנָף וּפֹצֶה פֶה וּמְצַפְצֵף׃
14. And my hand H3027 hath found H4672 as a nest H7064 the riches H2428 of the people H5971 : and as one gathereth H622 eggs H1000 that are left H5800 , have I H589 gathered H622 all H3605 the earth H776 ; and there was H1961 none H3808 that moved H5074 the wing H3671 , or opened H6475 the mouth H6310 , or peeped H6850 .
15. הֲיִתְפָּאֵר הַגַּרְזֶן עַל הַחֹצֵב בֹּו אִם־יִתְגַּדֵּל הַמַּשֹּׂור עַל־מְנִיפֹו כְּהָנִיף שֵׁבֶט וְאֶת־מְרִימָיו כְּהָרִים מַטֶּה לֹא־עֵץ׃
15. Shall the axe H1631 boast itself H6286 against H5921 him that heweth H2672 therewith? or shall the saw H4883 magnify itself H1431 against H5921 him that shaketh H5130 it? as if the rod H7626 should shake itself against H5130 H853 them that lift it up H7311 , or as if the staff H4294 should lift up H7311 itself, as if it were no H3808 wood H6086 .
16. לָכֵן יְשַׁלַּח הָאָדֹון יְהוָה צְבָאֹות בְּמִשְׁמַנָּיו רָזֹון וְתַחַת כְּבֹדֹו יֵקַד יְקֹד כִּיקֹוד אֵשׁ׃
16. Therefore H3651 shall the Lord H113 , the Lord H3068 of hosts H6635 , send H7971 among his fat ones H4924 leanness H7332 ; and under H8478 his glory H3519 he shall kindle H3344 a burning H3350 like the burning H3350 of a fire H784 .
17. וְהָיָה אֹור־יִשְׂרָאֵל לְאֵשׁ וּקְדֹושֹׁו לְלֶהָבָה וּבָעֲרָה וְאָכְלָה שִׁיתֹו וּשְׁמִירֹו בְּיֹום אֶחָד׃
17. And the light H216 of Israel H3478 shall be H1961 for a fire H784 , and his Holy One H6918 for a flame H3852 : and it shall burn H1197 and devour H398 his thorns H7898 and his briers H8068 in one H259 day H3117 ;
18. וּכְבֹוד יַעְרֹו וְכַרְמִלֹּו מִנֶּפֶשׁ וְעַד־בָּשָׂר יְכַלֶּה וְהָיָה כִּמְסֹס נֹסֵס׃
18. And shall consume H3615 the glory H3519 of his forest H3293 , and of his fruitful field H3759 , both soul H4480 H5315 and body H1320 : and they shall be H1961 as when a standard H5263 -bearer fainteth H4549 .
19. וּשְׁאָר עֵץ יַעְרֹו מִסְפָּר יִהְיוּ וְנַעַר יִכְתְּבֵם׃ פ
19. And the rest H7605 of the trees H6086 of his forest H3293 shall be H1961 few H4557 , that a child H5288 may write H3789 them.
20. וְהָיָה ׀ בַּיֹּום הַהוּא לֹא־יֹוסִיף עֹוד שְׁאָר יִשְׂרָאֵל וּפְלֵיטַת בֵּית־יַעֲקֹב לְהִשָּׁעֵן עַל־מַכֵּהוּ וְנִשְׁעַן עַל־יְהוָה קְדֹושׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל בֶּאֱמֶת׃
20. And it shall come to pass H1961 in that H1931 day H3117 , that the remnant H7605 of Israel H3478 , and such as are escaped H6413 of the house H1004 of Jacob H3290 , shall no H3808 more H5750 again H3254 stay H8172 upon H5921 him that smote H5221 them ; but shall stay H8172 upon H5921 the LORD H3068 , the Holy One H6918 of Israel H3478 , in truth H571 .
21. שְׁאָר יָשׁוּב שְׁאָר יַעֲקֹב אֶל־אֵל גִּבֹּור׃
21. The remnant H7605 shall return H7725 , even the remnant H7605 of Jacob H3290 , unto H413 the mighty H1368 God H410 .
22. כִּי אִם־יִהְיֶה עַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּחֹול הַיָּם שְׁאָר יָשׁוּב בֹּו כִּלָּיֹון חָרוּץ שֹׁוטֵף צְדָקָה׃
22. For H3588 though H518 thy people H5971 Israel H3478 be H1961 as the sand H2344 of the sea H3220 , yet a remnant H7605 of them shall return H7725 : the consumption H3631 decreed H2782 shall overflow H7857 with righteousness H6666 .
23. כִּי כָלָה וְנֶחֱרָצָה אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה צְבָאֹות עֹשֶׂה בְּקֶרֶב כָּל־הָאָרֶץ׃ ס
23. For H3588 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 shall make H6213 a consumption H3617 , even determined H2782 , in the midst H7130 of all H3605 the land H776 .
24. לָכֵן כֹּה־אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה צְבָאֹות אַל־תִּירָא עַמִּי יֹשֵׁב צִיֹּון מֵאַשּׁוּר בַּשֵּׁבֶט יַכֶּכָּה וּמַטֵּהוּ יִשָּׂא־עָלֶיךָ בְּדֶרֶךְ מִצְרָיִם׃
24. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 , O my people H5971 that dwellest H3427 in Zion H6726 , be not H408 afraid H3372 of the Assyrian H4480 H804 : he shall smite H5221 thee with a rod H7626 , and shall lift up H5375 his staff H4294 against H5921 thee , after the manner H1870 of Egypt H4714 .
25. כִּי־עֹוד מְעַט מִזְעָר וְכָלָה זַעַם וְאַפִּי עַל־תַּבְלִיתָם׃
25. For H3588 yet H5750 a very H4213 little H4592 while , and the indignation H2195 shall cease H3615 , and mine anger H639 in H5921 their destruction H8399 .
26. וְעֹורֵר עָלָיו יְהוָה צְבָאֹות שֹׁוט כְּמַכַּת מִדְיָן בְּצוּר עֹורֵב וּמַטֵּהוּ עַל־הַיָּם וּנְשָׂאֹו בְּדֶרֶךְ מִצְרָיִם׃
26. And the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 shall stir up H5782 a scourge H7752 for H5921 him according to the slaughter H4347 of Midian H4080 at the rock H6697 of Oreb H6159 : and as his rod H4294 was upon H5921 the sea H3220 , so shall he lift it up H5375 after the manner H1870 of Egypt H4714 .
27. וְהָיָה ׀ בַּיֹּום הַהוּא יָסוּר סֻבֳּלֹו מֵעַל שִׁכְמֶךָ וְעֻלֹּו מֵעַל צַוָּארֶךָ וְחֻבַּל עֹל מִפְּנֵי־שָׁמֶן׃
27. And it shall come to pass H1961 in that H1931 day H3117 , that his burden H5448 shall be taken away H5493 from off H4480 H5921 thy shoulder H7926 , and his yoke H5923 from off H4480 H5921 thy neck H6677 , and the yoke H5923 shall be destroyed H2254 because H4480 H6440 of the anointing H8081 .
28. בָּא עַל־עַיַּת עָבַר בְּמִגְרֹון לְמִכְמָשׂ יַפְקִיד כֵּלָיו׃
28. He is come H935 to H5921 Aiath H5857 , he is passed H5674 to Migron H4051 ; at Michmash H4363 he hath laid up H6485 his carriages H3627 :
29. עָבְרוּ מַעְבָּרָה גֶּבַע מָלֹון לָנוּ חָרְדָה הָרָמָה גִּבְעַת שָׁאוּל נָסָה׃
29. They are gone over H5674 the passage H4569 : they have taken up their lodging H4411 at Geba H1387 ; Ramah H7414 is afraid H2729 ; Gibeah H1390 of Saul H7586 is fled H5127 .
30. צַהֲלִי קֹולֵךְ בַּת־גַּלִּים הַקְשִׁיבִי לַיְשָׁה עֲנִיָּה עֲנָתֹות׃
30. Lift up H6670 thy voice H6963 , O daughter H1323 of Gallim H1554 : cause it to be heard H7181 unto Laish H3919 , O poor H6041 Anathoth H6068 .
31. נָדְדָה מַדְמֵנָה יֹשְׁבֵי הַגֵּבִים הֵעִיזוּ׃
31. Madmenah H4088 is removed H5074 ; the inhabitants H3427 of Gebim H1374 gather themselves to flee H5756 .
32. עֹוד הַיֹּום בְּנֹב לַעֲמֹד יְנֹפֵף יָדֹו הַר בֵּית־ כ (בַּת־צִיֹּון ק) גִּבְעַת יְרוּשָׁלִָם׃ ס
32. As yet H5750 shall he remain H5975 at Nob H5011 that day H3117 : he shall shake H5130 his hand H3027 against the mount H2022 of the daughter H1004 of Zion H6726 , the hill H1389 of Jerusalem H3389 .
33. הִנֵּה הָאָדֹון יְהוָה צְבָאֹות מְסָעֵף פֻּארָה בְּמַעֲרָצָה וְרָמֵי הַקֹּומָה גְּדוּעִים וְהַגְּבֹהִים יִשְׁפָּלוּ׃
33. Behold H2009 , the Lord H113 , the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 , shall lop H5586 the bough H6288 with terror H4637 : and the high ones H7312 of stature H6967 shall be hewn down H1438 , and the haughty H1364 shall be humbled H8213 .
34. וְנִקַּף סִבְכֵי הַיַּעַר בַּבַּרְזֶל וְהַלְּבָנֹון בְּאַדִּיר יִפֹּול׃ ס
34. And he shall cut down H5362 the thickets H5442 of the forest H3293 with iron H1270 , and Lebanon H3844 shall fall H5307 by a mighty one H117 .
