1. Wo to Ariel, Ariel, The city of the encampment of David! Add year to year, let festivals go round.
|
1. Woe H1945 to Ariel H740 , to Ariel H740 , the city H7151 where David H1732 dwelt H2583 ! add H5595 ye year H8141 to H5921 year H8141 ; let them kill H5362 sacrifices H2282 .
|
|
2. And I have sent distress to Ariel, And it hath been lamentation and mourning, And it hath been to me as Ariel.
|
2. Yet I will distress H6693 Ariel H740 , and there shall be H1961 heaviness H8386 and sorrow H592 : and it shall be H1961 unto me as Ariel H740 .
|
|
3. And I encamped, O babbler, against thee, And I laid siege against thee -- a camp. And I raised up against thee bulwarks.
|
3. And I will camp H2583 against H5921 thee round about H1754 , and will lay siege H6696 against H5921 thee with a mount H4674 , and I will raise H6965 forts H4694 against H5921 thee.
|
|
4. And thou hast been low, From the earth thou speakest, And from the dust makest thy saying low, And thy voice hath been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And from the dust thy saying whisperest,
|
4. And thou shalt be brought down H8213 , and shalt speak H1696 out of the ground H4480 H776 , and thy speech H565 shall be low H7817 out of the dust H4480 H6083 , and thy voice H6963 shall be H1961 , as of one that hath a familiar spirit H178 , out of the ground H4480 H776 , and thy speech H565 shall whisper H6850 out of the dust H4480 H6083 .
|
|
5. And as small dust hath been The multitude of those scattering thee, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it hath been at an instant -- suddenly.
|
5. Moreover the multitude H1995 of thy strangers H2114 shall be H1961 like small H1851 dust H80 , and the multitude H1995 of the terrible ones H6184 shall be as chaff H4671 that passeth away H5674 : yea , it shall be H1961 at an instant H6621 suddenly H6597 .
|
|
6. By Jehovah of Hosts thou art inspected, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, hurricane, and whirlwind, And flame of devouring fire.
|
6. Thou shalt be visited H6485 of H4480 H5973 the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 with thunder H7482 , and with earthquake H7494 , and great H1419 noise H6963 , with storm H5492 and tempest H5591 , and the flame H3851 of devouring H398 fire H784 .
|
|
7. And as a dream, a vision of night, hath been The multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her.
|
7. And the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 that fight H6633 against H5921 Ariel H740 , even all H3605 that fight H6633 against her and her munition H4685 , and that distress H6693 her , shall be H1961 as a dream H2472 of a night H3915 vision H2377 .
|
|
8. And it hath been, as when the hungry dreameth, And lo, he is eating, And he hath waked, and empty is his soul, And as when the thirsty dreameth, And lo, he is drinking, and he hath waked, And lo, he is weary, and his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against mount Zion.
|
8. It shall even be H1961 as when H834 a hungry H7457 man dreameth H2492 , and, behold H2009 , he eateth H398 ; but he awaketh H6974 , and his soul H5315 is empty H7386 : or as when H834 a thirsty man H6771 dreameth H2492 , and, behold H2009 , he drinketh H8354 ; but he awaketh H6974 , and, behold H2009 , he is faint H5889 , and his soul H5315 hath appetite H8264 : so H3651 shall the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 be H1961 , that fight H6633 against H5921 mount H2022 Zion H6726 .
|
|
9. Tarry and wonder, look ye, yea, look, Be drunk, and not with wine, Stagger, and not with strong drink.
|
9. Stay yourselves H4102 , and wonder H8539 ; cry ye out H8173 , and cry H8173 : they are drunken H7937 , but not H3808 with wine H3196 ; they stagger H5128 , but not H3808 with strong drink H7941 .
|
|
10. For poured out on you hath Jehovah a spirit of deep sleep, And He closeth your eyes -- the prophets, And your heads -- the seers -- He covered.
|
10. For H3588 the LORD H3068 hath poured out H5258 upon H5921 you the spirit H7307 of deep sleep H8639 , and hath closed H6105 H853 your eyes H5869 : H853 the prophets H5030 and your rulers H7218 , the seers H2374 hath he covered H3680 .
|
|
11. And the vision of the whole is to you, As words of the sealed book, That they give unto one knowing books, Saying, `Read this, we pray thee,` And he hath said, `I am not able, for it is sealed;`
|
11. And the vision H2380 of all H3605 is become H1961 unto you as the words H1697 of a book H5612 that is sealed H2856 , which H834 men deliver H5414 to H413 one that is learned H3045 H5612 , saying H559 , Read H7121 this H2088 , I pray thee H4994 : and he saith H559 , I cannot H3201 H3808 ; for H3588 it H1931 is sealed H2856 :
|
|
12. And the book is given to him who hath not known books, Saying, `Read this, we pray thee,` And he hath said, `I have not known books.`
|
12. And the book H5612 is delivered H5414 to H5921 him that H834 is not learned H3045 H3808 H5612 , saying H559 , Read H7121 this H2088 , I pray thee H4994 : and he saith H559 , I am not learned H3045 H3808 H5612 .
|
|
13. And the Lord saith: Because drawn near hath this people, with its mouth, And with its lips they have honoured Me, And its heart it hath put far off from Me, And their fear of Me is -- A precept of men is taught!
|
13. Wherefore the Lord H136 said H559 , Forasmuch H3282 H3588 as this H2088 people H5971 draw near H5066 me with their mouth H6310 , and with their lips H8193 do honor H3513 me , but have removed their heart far H7368 H3820 from H4480 me , and their fear H3374 toward H854 me is H1961 taught H3925 by the precept H4687 of men H376 :
|
|
14. Therefore, lo, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And perished hath the wisdom of its wise ones, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hideth itself.`
|
14. Therefore H3651 , behold H2009 , I will proceed H3254 to do a marvelous work H6381 among H854 this H2088 people H5971 , even a marvelous work H6381 and a wonder H6382 : for the wisdom H2451 of their wise H2450 men shall perish H6 , and the understanding H998 of their prudent H995 men shall be hid H5641 .
|
|
15. Wo to those going deep from Jehovah to hide counsel, And whose works have been in darkness. And they say, `Who is seeing us? And who is knowing us?`
|
15. Woe H1945 unto them that seek deep H6009 to hide H5641 their counsel H6098 from the LORD H4480 H3068 , and their works H4639 are H1961 in the dark H4285 , and they say H559 , Who H4310 seeth H7200 us? and who H4310 knoweth H3045 us?
|
|
16. Your perversion! as clay is the potter esteemed? That the work saith of its maker, `He hath not made me?` And the framed thing said of its framer, `He did not understand?`
|
16. Surely H518 your turning of things upside down H2017 shall be esteemed H2803 as the potter H3335 's clay H2563 : for H3588 shall the work H4639 say H559 of him that made H6213 it , He made H6213 me not H3808 ? or shall the thing framed H3336 say H559 of him that framed H3335 it , He had no understanding H995 H3808 ?
|
|
17. Is it not yet a very little, And turned hath Lebanon to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field for a forest is reckoned?
|
17. Is it not H3808 yet H5750 a very H4213 little while H4592 , and Lebanon H3844 shall be turned H7725 into a fruitful field H3759 , and the fruitful field H3759 shall be esteemed H2803 as a forest H3293 ?
|
|
18. And heard in that day have the deaf the words of a book, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind do see.
|
18. And in that H1931 day H3117 shall the deaf H2795 hear H8085 the words H1697 of the book H5612 , and the eyes H5869 of the blind H5787 shall see H7200 out of obscurity H4480 H652 , and out of darkness H4480 H2822 .
|
|
19. And the humble have added joy in Jehovah, And the poor among men In the Holy One of Israel rejoice.
|
19. The meek H6035 also shall increase H3254 their joy H8057 in the LORD H3068 , and the poor H34 among men H120 shall rejoice H1523 in the Holy One H6918 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
20. For ceased hath the terrible one, And consumed hath been the scorner, And cut off have been all watching for iniquity,
|
20. For H3588 the terrible one H6184 is brought to naught H656 , and the scorner H3887 is consumed H3615 , and all H3605 that watch H8245 for iniquity H205 are cut off H3772 :
|
|
21. Causing men to sin in word, And for a reprover in the gate lay a snare, And turn aside into emptiness the righteous.
|
21. That make a man an offender H2398 H120 for a word H1697 , and lay a snare H6983 for him that reproveth H3198 in the gate H8179 , and turn aside H5186 the just H6662 for a thing of naught H8414 .
|
|
22. Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: `Not now ashamed is Jacob, Nor now doth his face become pale,
|
22. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 , who H834 redeemed H6299 H853 Abraham H85 , concerning H413 the house H1004 of Jacob H3290 , Jacob H3290 shall not H3808 now H6258 be ashamed H954 , neither H3808 shall his face H6440 now H6258 wax pale H2357 .
|
|
23. For in his seeing his children, The work of My hand, in his midst, They sanctify My name, And have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, And the God of Israel they declare fearful.
|
23. But when H3588 he seeth H7200 his children H3206 , the work H4639 of mine hands H3027 , in the midst H7130 of him , they shall sanctify H6942 my name H8034 , and sanctify H6942 H853 the Holy One H6918 of Jacob H3290 , and shall fear H6206 the God H430 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
24. And the erring in spirit have known understanding, And murmurers learn doctrine!`
|
24. They also that erred H8582 in spirit H7307 shall come H3045 to understanding H998 , and they that murmured H7279 shall learn H3925 doctrine H3948 .
