1. שֹׁוטְטוּ בְּחוּצֹות יְרוּשָׁלִַם וּרְאוּ־נָא וּדְעוּ וּבַקְשׁוּ בִרְחֹובֹותֶיהָ אִם־תִּמְצְאוּ אִישׁ אִם־יֵשׁ עֹשֶׂה מִשְׁפָּט מְבַקֵּשׁ אֱמוּנָה וְאֶסְלַח לָהּ׃
|
1. Run ye to and fro H7751 through the streets H2351 of Jerusalem H3389 , and see H7200 now H4994 , and know H3045 , and seek H1245 in the broad places H7339 thereof, if H518 ye can find H4672 a man H376 , if H518 there be H3426 any that executeth H6213 judgment H4941 , that seeketh H1245 the truth H530 ; and I will pardon H5545 it.
|
|
2. וְאִם חַי־יְהֹוָה יֹאמֵרוּ לָכֵן לַשֶּׁקֶר יִשָּׁבֵעוּ׃
|
2. And though H518 they say H559 , The LORD H3068 liveth H2416 ; surely H3651 they swear H7650 falsely H8267 .
|
|
3. יְהֹוָה עֵינֶיךָ הֲלֹוא לֶאֱמוּנָה הִכִּיתָה אֹתָם וְלֹא־חָלוּ כִּלִּיתָם מֵאֲנוּ קַחַת מוּסָר חִזְּקוּ פְנֵיהֶם מִסֶּלַע מֵאֲנוּ לָשׁוּב׃
|
3. O LORD H3068 , are not H3808 thine eyes H5869 upon the truth H530 ? thou hast stricken H5221 them , but they have not H3808 grieved H2342 ; thou hast consumed H3615 them, but they have refused H3985 to receive H3947 correction H4148 : they have made their faces H6440 harder H2388 than a rock H4480 H5553 ; they have refused H3985 to return H7725 .
|
|
4. וַאֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי אַךְ־דַּלִּים הֵם נֹואֲלוּ כִּי לֹא יָדְעוּ דֶּרֶךְ יְהוָה מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵיהֶם׃
|
4. Therefore I H589 said H559 , Surely H389 these H1992 are poor H1800 ; they are foolish H2973 : for H3588 they know H3045 not H3808 the way H1870 of the LORD H3068 , nor the judgment H4941 of their God H430 .
|
|
5. אֵלֲכָה־לִּי אֶל־הַגְּדֹלִים וַאֲדַבְּרָה אֹותָם כִּי הֵמָּה יָדְעוּ דֶּרֶךְ יְהוָה מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵיהֶם אַךְ הֵמָּה יַחְדָּו שָׁבְרוּ עֹל נִתְּקוּ מֹוסֵרֹות׃
|
5. I will get H1980 me unto H413 the great men H1419 , and will speak unto H1696 them; for H3588 they H1992 have known H3045 the way H1870 of the LORD H3068 , and the judgment H4941 of their God H430 : but H389 these H1992 have altogether H3162 broken H7665 the yoke H5923 , and burst H5423 the bonds H4147 .
|
|
6. עַל־כֵּן הִכָּם אַרְיֵה מִיַּעַר זְאֵב עֲרָבֹות יְשָׁדְדֵם נָמֵר שֹׁקֵד עַל־עָרֵיהֶם כָּל־הַיֹּוצֵא מֵהֵנָּה יִטָּרֵף כִּי רַבּוּ פִּשְׁעֵיהֶם עָצְמוּ מְשֻׁבֹותֵיהֶם כ (מְשׁוּבֹותֵיהֶם ׃ ק)
|
6. Wherefore H5921 H3651 a lion H738 out of the forest H4480 H3293 shall slay H5221 them, and a wolf H2061 of the evenings H6160 shall spoil H7703 them , a leopard H5246 shall watch H8245 over H5921 their cities H5892 : every one H3605 that goeth out H3318 thence H4480 H2007 shall be torn in pieces H2963 : because H3588 their transgressions H6588 are many H7231 , and their backslidings H4878 are increased H6105 .
|
|
7. אֵי לָזֹאת אֶסְלֹוחַ ־ כ (אֶסְלַח־לָךְ ק) בָּנַיִךְ עֲזָבוּנִי וַיִּשָּׁבְעוּ בְּלֹא אֱלֹהִים וָאַשְׂבִּעַ אֹותָם וַיִּנְאָפוּ וּבֵית זֹונָה יִתְגֹּדָדוּ׃
|
7. How H335 shall I pardon H5545 thee for this H2063 ? thy children H1121 have forsaken H5800 me , and sworn H7650 by them that are no H3808 gods H430 : when I had fed them to the full H7646 H853 , they then committed adultery H5003 , and assembled themselves H1413 by troops in the harlots H2181 houses H1004 .
|
|
8. סוּסִים מְיֻזָּנִים מַשְׁכִּים הָיוּ אִישׁ אֶל־אֵשֶׁת רֵעֵהוּ יִצְהָלוּ׃
|
8. They were H1961 as fed H2109 horses H5483 in the morning H7904 : every one H376 neighed H6670 after H413 his neighbor H7453 's wife H802 .
|
|
9. הַעַל־אֵלֶּה לֹוא־אֶפְקֹד נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה וְאִם בְּגֹוי אֲשֶׁר־כָּזֶה לֹא תִתְנַקֵּם נַפְשִׁי׃ ס
|
9. Shall I not H3808 visit H6485 for H5921 these H428 things ? saith H5002 the LORD H3068 : and H518 shall not H3808 my soul H5315 be avenged H5358 on such H834 a nation H1471 as this H2088 ?
|
|
10. עֲלוּ בְשָׁרֹותֶיהָ וְשַׁחֵתוּ וְכָלָה אַל־תַּעֲשׂוּ הָסִירוּ נְטִישֹׁותֶיהָ כִּי לֹוא לַיהוָה הֵמָּה׃
|
10. Go ye up H5927 upon her walls H8284 , and destroy H7843 ; but make H6213 not H408 a full end H3617 : take away H5493 her battlements H5189 ; for H3588 they H1992 are not H3808 the LORD H3068 's.
|
|
11. כִּי בָגֹוד בָּגְדוּ בִּי בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל וּבֵית יְהוּדָה נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃
|
11. For H3588 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 and the house H1004 of Judah H3063 have dealt very treacherously H898 H898 against me, saith H5002 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
12. כִּחֲשׁוּ בַּיהוָה וַיֹּאמְרוּ לֹא־הוּא וְלֹא־תָבֹוא עָלֵינוּ רָעָה וְחֶרֶב וְרָעָב לֹוא נִרְאֶה׃
|
12. They have belied H3584 the LORD H3068 , and said H559 , It is not H3808 he H1931 ; neither H3808 shall evil H7451 come H935 upon H5921 us; neither H3808 shall we see H7200 sword H2719 nor famine H7458 :
|
|
13. וְהַנְּבִיאִים יִהְיוּ לְרוּחַ וְהַדִּבֵּר אֵין בָּהֶם כֹּה יֵעָשֶׂה לָהֶם׃ ס
|
13. And the prophets H5030 shall become H1961 wind H7307 , and the word H1699 is not H369 in them: thus H3541 shall it be done H6213 unto them.
|
|
14. לָכֵן כֹּה־אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי צְבָאֹות יַעַן דַּבֶּרְכֶם אֶת־הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה הִנְנִי נֹתֵן דְּבָרַי בְּפִיךָ לְאֵשׁ וְהָעָם הַזֶּה עֵצִים וַאֲכָלָתַם׃
|
14. Wherefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 God H430 of hosts H6635 , Because H3282 ye speak H1696 H853 this H2088 word H1697 , behold H2009 , I will make H5414 my words H1697 in thy mouth H6310 fire H784 , and this H2088 people H5971 wood H6086 , and it shall devour H398 them.
|
|
15. הִנְנִי מֵבִיא עֲלֵיכֶם גֹּוי מִמֶּרְחָק בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה גֹּוי ׀ אֵיתָן הוּא גֹּוי מֵעֹולָם הוּא גֹּוי לֹא־תֵדַע לְשֹׁנֹו וְלֹא תִשְׁמַע מַה־יְדַבֵּר׃
|
15. Lo H2009 , I will bring H935 a nation H1471 upon H5921 you from far H4480 H4801 , O house H1004 of Israel H3478 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 : it H1931 is a mighty H386 nation H1471 , it H1931 is an ancient H4480 H5769 nation H1471 , a nation H1471 whose language H3956 thou knowest H3045 not H3808 , neither H3808 understandest H8085 what H4100 they say H1696 .
|
|
16. אַשְׁפָּתֹו כְּקֶבֶר פָּתוּחַ כֻּלָּם גִּבֹּורִים׃
|
16. Their quiver H827 is as an open H6605 sepulcher H6913 , they are all H3605 mighty men H1368 .
|
|
17. וְאָכַל קְצִירְךָ וְלַחְמֶךָ יֹאכְלוּ בָּנֶיךָ וּבְנֹותֶיךָ יֹאכַל צֹאנְךָ וּבְקָרֶךָ יֹאכַל גַּפְנְךָ וּתְאֵנָתֶךָ יְרֹשֵׁשׁ עָרֵי מִבְצָרֶיךָ אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה בֹּוטֵחַ בָּהֵנָּה בֶּחָרֶב׃
|
17. And they shall eat up H398 thine harvest H7105 , and thy bread H3899 , which thy sons H1121 and thy daughters H1323 should eat H398 : they shall eat up H398 thy flocks H6629 and thine herds H1241 : they shall eat up H398 thy vines H1612 and thy fig trees H8384 : they shall impoverish H7567 thy fenced H4013 cities H5892 , wherein H834 thou H859 trustedst H982 , with the sword H2719 .
|
|
18. וְגַם בַּיָּמִים הָהֵמָּה נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה לֹא־אֶעֱשֶׂה אִתְּכֶם כָּלָה׃
|
18. Nevertheless H1571 in those H1992 days H3117 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , I will not H3808 make H6213 a full end H3617 with H854 you.
|
|
19. וְהָיָה כִּי תֹאמְרוּ תַּחַת מֶה עָשָׂה יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ לָנוּ אֶת־כָּל־אֵלֶּה וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם כַּאֲשֶׁר עֲזַבְתֶּם אֹותִי וַתַּעַבְדוּ אֱלֹהֵי נֵכָר בְּאַרְצְכֶם כֵּן תַּעַבְדוּ זָרִים בְּאֶרֶץ לֹא לָכֶם׃ ס
|
19. And it shall come to pass H1961 , when H3588 ye shall say H559 , Wherefore H8478 H4100 doeth H6213 the LORD H3068 our God H430 H853 all H3605 these H428 things unto us? then shalt thou answer H559 H413 them, Like H834 as ye have forsaken H5800 me , and served H5647 strange H5236 gods H430 in your land H776 , so H3651 shall ye serve H5647 strangers H2114 in a land H776 that is not H3808 yours.
|
|
20. הַגִּידוּ זֹאת בְּבֵית יַעֲקֹב וְהַשְׁמִיעוּהָ בִיהוּדָה לֵאמֹר׃
|
20. Declare H5046 this H2063 in the house H1004 of Jacob H3290 , and publish H8085 it in Judah H3063 , saying H559 ,
|
|
21. שִׁמְעוּ־נָא זֹאת עַם סָכָל וְאֵין לֵב עֵינַיִם לָהֶם וְלֹא יִרְאוּ אָזְנַיִם לָהֶם וְלֹא יִשְׁמָעוּ׃
|
21. Hear H8085 now H4994 this H2063 , O foolish H5530 people H5971 , and without H369 understanding H3820 ; which have eyes H5869 , and see H7200 not H3808 ; which have ears H241 , and hear H8085 not H3808 :
|
|
22. הַאֹותִי לֹא־תִירָאוּ נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה אִם מִפָּנַי לֹא תָחִילוּ אֲשֶׁר־שַׂמְתִּי חֹול גְּבוּל לַיָּם חָק־עֹולָם וְלֹא יַעַבְרֶנְהוּ וַיִּתְגָּעֲשׁוּ וְלֹא יוּכָלוּ וְהָמוּ גַלָּיו וְלֹא יַעַבְרֻנְהוּ׃
|
22. Fear H3372 ye not H3808 me? saith H5002 the LORD H3068 : will ye not H3808 tremble H2342 at my presence H4480 H6440 , which H834 have placed H7760 the sand H2344 for the bound H1366 of the sea H3220 by a perpetual H5769 decree H2706 , that it cannot H3808 pass H5674 it : and though the waves H1530 thereof toss themselves H1607 , yet can they not H3808 prevail H3201 ; though they roar H1993 , yet can they not H3808 pass over H5674 it?
|
|
23. וְלָעָם הַזֶּה הָיָה לֵב סֹורֵר וּמֹורֶה סָרוּ וַיֵּלֵכוּ׃
|
23. But this H2088 people H5971 hath H1961 a revolting H5637 and a rebellious H4784 heart H3820 ; they are revolted H5493 and gone H1980 .
|
|
24. וְלֹא־אָמְרוּ בִלְבָבָם נִירָא נָא אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ הַנֹּתֵן גֶּשֶׁם וְיֹרֶה כ (יֹורֶה ק) וּמַלְקֹושׁ בְּעִתֹּו שְׁבֻעֹות חֻקֹּות קָצִיר יִשְׁמָר־לָנוּ׃
|
24. Neither H3808 say H559 they in their heart H3824 , Let us now H4994 fear H3372 H853 the LORD H3068 our God H430 , that giveth H5414 rain H1653 , both the former H3138 and the latter H4456 , in his season H6256 : he reserveth H8104 unto us the appointed H2708 weeks H7620 of the harvest H7105 .
|
|
25. עֲוֹנֹותֵיכֶם הִטּוּ־אֵלֶּה וְחַטֹּאותֵיכֶם מָנְעוּ הַטֹּוב מִכֶּם׃
|
25. Your iniquities H5771 have turned away H5186 these H428 things , and your sins H2403 have withheld H4513 good H2896 things from H4480 you.
|
|
26. כִּי־נִמְצְאוּ בְעַמִּי רְשָׁעִים יָשׁוּר כְּשַׁךְ יְקוּשִׁים הִצִּיבוּ מַשְׁחִית אֲנָשִׁים יִלְכֹּדוּ׃
|
26. For H3588 among my people H5971 are found H4672 wicked H7563 men : they lay wait H7789 , as he that setteth H7918 snares H3353 ; they set H5324 a trap H4889 , they catch H3920 men H376 .
|
|
27. כִּכְלוּב מָלֵא עֹוף כֵּן בָּתֵּיהֶם מְלֵאִים מִרְמָה עַל־כֵּן גָּדְלוּ וַיַּעֲשִׁירוּ׃
|
27. As a cage H3619 is full H4392 of birds H5775 , so H3651 are their houses H1004 full H4392 of deceit H4820 : therefore H5921 H3651 they are become great H1431 , and waxen rich H6238 .
|
|
28. שָׁמְנוּ עָשְׁתוּ גַּם עָבְרוּ דִבְרֵי־רָע דִּין לֹא־דָנוּ דִּין יָתֹום וְיַצְלִיחוּ וּמִשְׁפַּט אֶבְיֹונִים לֹא שָׁפָטוּ׃
|
28. They are waxen fat H8080 , they shine H6245 : yea H1571 , they overpass H5674 the deeds H1697 of the wicked H7451 : they judge H1777 not H3808 the cause H1779 , the cause H1779 of the fatherless H3490 , yet they prosper H6743 ; and the right H4941 of the needy H34 do they not H3808 judge H8199 .
|
|
29. הַעַל־אֵלֶּה לֹא־אֶפְקֹד נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה אִם בְּגֹוי אֲשֶׁר־כָּזֶה לֹא תִתְנַקֵּם נַפְשִׁי׃ ס
|
29. Shall I not H3808 visit H6485 for H5921 these H428 things ? saith H5002 the LORD H3068 : shall not H3808 my soul H5315 be avenged H5358 on such H834 a nation H1471 as this H2088 ?
|
|
30. שַׁמָּה וְשַׁעֲרוּרָה נִהְיְתָה בָּאָרֶץ׃
|
30. A wonderful H8047 and horrible thing H8186 is committed H1961 in the land H776 ;
|
|
31. הַנְּבִיאִים נִבְּאוּ־בַשֶּׁקֶר וְהַכֹּהֲנִים יִרְדּוּ עַל־יְדֵיהֶם וְעַמִּי אָהֲבוּ כֵן וּמַה־תַּעֲשׂוּ לְאַחֲרִיתָהּ׃
|
31. The prophets H5030 prophesy H5012 falsely H8267 , and the priests H3548 bear rule H7287 by H5921 their means H3027 ; and my people H5971 love H157 to have it so H3651 : and what H4100 will ye do H6213 in the end H319 thereof?
