1. Then Jehovah said to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before Me, My soul could not be toward this people. Send them out from before My face; yea, let them go out.
|
1. Then said H559 the LORD H3068 unto H413 me, Though H518 Moses H4872 and Samuel H8050 stood H5975 before H6440 me, yet my mind H5315 could not H369 be toward H413 this H2088 people H5971 : cast H7971 them out of H4480 H5921 my sight H6440 , and let them go forth H3318 .
|
|
2. And it will be, if they say to you, Where shall we go? Then you will tell them, So says Jehovah, Those who are for death, go to death; and those for the sword, to the sword; and those for the famine, to the famine; and those for the captivity, to the captivity.
|
2. And it shall come to pass H1961 , if H3588 they say H559 unto H413 thee, Whither H575 shall we go forth H3318 ? then thou shalt tell H559 H413 them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 ; Such as H834 are for death H4194 , to death H4194 ; and such as H834 are for the sword H2719 , to the sword H2719 ; and such as H834 are for the famine H7458 , to the famine H7458 ; and such as H834 are for the captivity H7628 , to the captivity H7628 .
|
|
3. And I will set over them four kinds, says Jehovah: the sword to kill, and the dogs to drag off, and the birds of the heaven and the beast of the earth to devour and destroy.
|
3. And I will appoint H6485 over H5921 them four H702 kinds H4940 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 : H853 the sword H2719 to slay H2026 , and the dogs H3611 to tear H5498 , and the fowls H5775 of the heaven H8064 , and the beasts H929 of the earth H776 , to devour H398 and destroy H7843 .
|
|
4. And I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah; for what he did in Jerusalem.
|
4. And I will cause H5414 them to be removed H2189 into all H3605 kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776 , because of H1558 Manasseh H4519 the son H1121 of Hezekiah H3169 king H4428 of Judah H3063 , for H5921 that which H834 he did H6213 in Jerusalem H3389 .
|
|
5. For who shall have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Or who shall weep over you? Or who shall turn aside to ask your welfare?
|
5. For H3588 who H4310 shall have pity H2550 upon H5921 thee , O Jerusalem H3389 ? or who H4310 shall bemoan H5110 thee? or who H4310 shall go aside H5493 to ask H7592 how thou doest H7965 ?
|
|
6. You have forsaken Me, says Jehovah. You have gone backward, so I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you; I am weary of repenting.
|
6. Thou H859 hast forsaken H5203 me, saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , thou art gone H1980 backward H268 : therefore will I stretch out H5186 H853 my hand H3027 against H5921 thee , and destroy H7843 thee ; I am weary H3811 with repenting H5162 .
|
|
7. And I will sift them with a fork in the gates of the land; I will bereave; I will destroy My people, for they do not turn from their ways.
|
7. And I will fan H2219 them with a fan H4214 in the gates H8179 of the land H776 ; I will bereave H7921 them of children , I will destroy H6 H853 my people H5971 , since they return H7725 not H3808 from their ways H4480 H1870 .
|
|
8. Their widows are more numerous about Me than the sand of the seas. I have brought for them a ravager at noonday against the mother of a young man; I caused anguish and terror to fall on her suddenly.
|
8. Their widows H490 are increased H6105 to me above the sand H4480 H2344 of the seas H3220 : I have brought H935 upon them against H5921 the mother H517 of the young men H970 a spoiler H7703 at noonday H6672 : I have caused him to fall H5307 upon H5921 it suddenly H6597 , and terrors H928 upon the city H5892 .
|
|
9. She who bore seven now languishes; she has breathed out her life; her sun has gone down while it was still day. She has been ashamed and humiliated, and I will give the rest of them to the sword before their enemies, says Jehovah.
|
9. She that hath borne H3205 seven H7651 languisheth H535 : she hath given up H5301 the ghost H5315 ; her sun H8121 is gone down H935 while H5750 it was yet day H3119 : she hath been ashamed H954 and confounded H2659 : and the residue H7611 of them will I deliver H5414 to the sword H2719 before H6440 their enemies H341 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
10. Woe to me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife, and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not loaned, nor have they loaned to me; yet everyone curses me.
|
10. Woe H188 is me , my mother H517 , that H3588 thou hast borne H3205 me a man H376 of strife H7379 and a man H376 of contention H4066 to the whole H3605 earth H776 ! I have neither H3808 lent on usury H5383 , nor H3808 men have lent to me on usury H5383 ; yet every one H3605 of them doth curse H7043 me.
|
|
11. Jehovah said, Truly, I will not free you for good. Truly I will cause the enemy to entreat you in the time of evil and in the time of distress.
|
11. The LORD H3068 said H559 , Verily H518 H3808 it shall be well H2896 with thy remnant H7611 ; verily H518 H3808 I will cause H853 the enemy H341 to entreat H6293 thee well in the time H6256 of evil H7451 and in the time H6256 of affliction H6869 .
|
|
12. Can one break iron, iron or bronze from the north?
|
12. Shall iron H1270 break H7489 the northern H4480 H6828 iron H1270 and the steel H5178 ?
|
|
13. Your wealth and your treasures I will give for prey, not for price, but for all your sins, even in all your borders.
|
13. Thy substance H2428 and thy treasures H214 will I give H5414 to the spoil H957 without H3808 price H4242 , and that for all H3605 thy sins H2403 , even in all H3605 thy borders H1366 .
|
|
14. And I will make you pass with your enemies into a land you do not know. For a fire has been kindled in My anger; it shall burn against you.
|
14. And I will make thee to pass H5674 with H854 thine enemies H341 into a land H776 which thou knowest H3045 not H3808 : for H3588 a fire H784 is kindled H6919 in mine anger H639 , which shall burn H3344 upon H5921 you.
|
|
15. O Jehovah, You know. Remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on those who seek to hurt me. Do not take me away in Your long-suffering; know that I bear reproach for You.
|
15. O LORD H3068 , thou H859 knowest H3045 : remember H2142 me , and visit H6485 me , and revenge H5358 me of my persecutors H4480 H7291 ; take H3947 me not H408 away in thy longsuffering H750 H639 : know H3045 that for H5921 thy sake I have suffered H5375 rebuke H2781 .
|
|
16. Your Words were found and I ate them; and Your Word was to me the joy and gladness of my heart. For I am called by Your name, O Jehovah, God of Hosts.
|
16. Thy words H1697 were found H4672 , and I did eat H398 them ; and thy word H1697 was H1961 unto me the joy H8342 and rejoicing H8057 of mine heart H3824 : for H3588 I am called H7121 by H5921 thy name H8034 , O LORD H3068 God H430 of hosts H6635 .
|
|
17. I did not sit in the circle of merrymakers, nor exult. I sat alone because of Your hand; for You have filled me with indignation.
|
17. I sat H3427 not H3808 in the assembly H5475 of the mockers H7832 , nor rejoiced H5937 ; I sat H3427 alone H910 because H4480 H6440 of thy hand H3027 : for H3588 thou hast filled H4390 me with indignation H2195 .
|
|
18. Why has my pain been without end and my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? You surely are to me like deceitful waters which cannot be trusted.
|
18. Why H4100 is H1961 my pain H3511 perpetual H5331 , and my wound H4347 incurable H605 , which refuseth H3985 to be healed H7495 ? wilt thou be altogether H1961 H1961 unto me as H3644 a liar H391 , and as waters H4325 that fail H3808 H539 ?
|
|
19. So Jehovah says this: If you return, then I will bring you again; you shall stand before Me. And if you take the precious from the worthless, you shall be as My mouth. Let them turn back to you, but do not return to them.
|
19. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 , If H518 thou return H7725 , then will I bring thee again H7725 , and thou shalt stand H5975 before H6440 me : and if H518 thou take forth H3318 the precious H3368 from the vile H4480 H2151 , thou shalt be H1961 as my mouth H6310 : let them return H7725 unto H413 thee ; but return H7725 not H3808 thou H859 unto H413 them.
|
|
20. And I will make you a fortified wall of bronze to this people. And they shall fight against you, but they shall not overcome you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you, says Jehovah.
|
20. And I will make H5414 thee unto this H2088 people H5971 a fenced H1219 brazen H5178 wall H2346 : and they shall fight H3898 against H413 thee , but they shall not H3808 prevail H3201 against thee: for H3588 I H589 am with H854 thee to save H3467 thee and to deliver H5337 thee, saith H5002 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
21. And I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the evil ones.
|
21. And I will deliver H5337 thee out of the hand H4480 H3027 of the wicked H7451 , and I will redeem H6299 thee out of the hand H4480 H3709 of the terrible H6184 .
