| [1]הֹוי מֹרְאָה וְנִגְאָלָה הָעִיר הַיֹּונָה׃ |
[1]Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the robbing city. |
| [2]לֹא שָׁמְעָה בְּקֹול לֹא לָקְחָה מוּסָר בַּיהוָה לֹא בָטָחָה אֶל־אֱלֹהֶיהָ לֹא קָרֵבָה׃ |
[2]She heard not the voice: she received not correction: she trusted not in the Lord: she drew not near to her God. |
| [3]שָׂרֶיהָ בְקִרְבָּהּ אֲרָיֹות שֹׁאֲגִים שֹׁפְטֶיהָ זְאֵבֵי עֶרֶב לֹא גָרְמוּ לַבֹּקֶר׃ |
[3]Her princes within her are as roaring lions: her judges are as wolves in the evening, which leave not the bones till the morrow. |
| [4]נְבִיאֶיהָ פֹּחֲזִים אַנְשֵׁי בֹּגְדֹות כֹּהֲנֶיהָ חִלְּלוּ־קֹדֶשׁ חָמְסוּ תֹּורָה׃ |
[4]Her prophets are light, and wicked persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary: they have wrested the law. |
| [5]יְהוָה צַדִּיק בְּקִרְבָּהּ לֹא יַעֲשֶׂה עַוְלָה בַּבֹּקֶר בַּבֹּקֶר מִשְׁפָּטֹו יִתֵּן לָאֹור לֹא נֶעְדָּר וְלֹא־יֹודֵעַ עַוָּל בֹּשֶׁת׃ |
[5]The just Lord is in the midst thereof: he will do none iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not: but the wicked will not learn to be ashamed. |
| [6]הִכְרַתִּי גֹויִם נָשַׁמּוּ פִּנֹּותָם הֶחֱרַבְתִּי חוּצֹותָם מִבְּלִי עֹובֵר נִצְדּוּ עָרֵיהֶם מִבְּלִי־אִישׁ מֵאֵין יֹושֵׁב׃ |
[6]I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate: I have made their streets waste, that none shall pass by: their cities are destroyed without man and without inhabitant. |
| [7]אָמַרְתִּי אַךְ־תִּירְאִי אֹותִי תִּקְחִי מוּסָר וְלֹא־יִכָּרֵת מְעֹונָהּ כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־פָּקַדְתִּי עָלֶיהָ אָכֵן הִשְׁכִּימוּ הִשְׁחִיתוּ כֹּל עֲלִילֹותָם׃ |
[7]I said, Surely thou wilt fear me: thou wilt receive instruction: so their dwelling should not be destroyed howsoever I visited them, but they rose early and corrupted all their works. |
| [8]לָכֵן חַכּוּ־לִי נְאֻם־יְהוָה לְיֹום קוּמִי לְעַד כִּי מִשְׁפָּטִי לֶאֱסֹף גֹּויִם לְקָבְצִי מַמְלָכֹות לִשְׁפֹּךְ עֲלֵיהֶם זַעְמִי כֹּל חֲרֹון אַפִּי כִּי בְּאֵשׁ קִנְאָתִי תֵּאָכֵל כָּל־הָאָרֶץ׃ |
[8]Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for I am determined to gather the nations, and that I will assemble the kingdoms to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce wrath: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy. |
| [9]כִּי־אָז אֶהְפֹּךְ אֶל־עַמִּים שָׂפָה בְרוּרָה לִקְרֹא כֻלָּם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה לְעָבְדֹו שְׁכֶם אֶחָד׃ |
[9]Surely then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve him with one consent. |
| [10]מֵעֵבֶר לְנַהֲרֵי־כוּשׁ עֲתָרַי בַּת־פּוּצַי יֹובִלוּן מִנְחָתִי׃ |
[10]From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, the daughter of my dispersed, praying unto me, shall bring me an offering. |
| [11]בַּיֹּום הַהוּא לֹא תֵבֹושִׁי מִכֹּל עֲלִילֹתַיִךְ אֲשֶׁר פָּשַׁעַתְּ בִּי כִּי־אָז אָסִיר מִקִּרְבֵּךְ עַלִּיזֵי גַּאֲוָתֵךְ וְלֹא־תֹוסִפִי לְגָבְהָה עֹוד בְּהַר קָדְשִׁי׃ |
[11]In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy works, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice of thy pride, and thou shalt no more be proud of mine holy mountain. |
| [12]וְהִשְׁאַרְתִּי בְקִרְבֵּךְ עַם עָנִי וָדָל וְחָסוּ בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה׃ |
[12]Then will I leave in the midst of thee an humble and poor people: and they shall trust in the name of the Lord. |
| [13]שְׁאֵרִית יִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא־יַעֲשׂוּ עַוְלָה וְלֹא־יְדַבְּרוּ כָזָב וְלֹא־יִמָּצֵא בְּפִיהֶם לְשֹׁון תַּרְמִית כִּי־הֵמָּה יִרְעוּ וְרָבְצוּ וְאֵין מַחֲרִיד׃ |
[13]The remnant of Israel shall do none iniquity, nor speak lies: neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall be fed, and lie down, and none shall make them afraid. |
| [14]רָנִּי בַּת־צִיֹּון הָרִיעוּ יִשְׂרָאֵל שִׂמְחִי וְעָלְזִי בְּכָל־לֵב בַּת יְרוּשָׁלִָם׃ |
[14]Rejoice, O daughter Zion: be ye joyful, O Israel: be glad and rejoice with all thine heart, O daughter Jerusalem. |
| [15]הֵסִיר יְהוָה מִשְׁפָּטַיִךְ פִּנָּה אֹיְבֵךְ מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל יְהוָה בְּקִרְבֵּךְ לֹא־תִירְאִי רָע עֹוד׃ |
[15]The Lord hath taken away thy judgments: he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the Lord is in the midst of thee: thou shalt see no more evil. |
| [16]בַּיֹּום הַהוּא יֵאָמֵר לִירוּשָׁלִַם אַל־תִּירָאִי צִיֹּון אַל־יִרְפּוּ יָדָיִךְ׃ |
[16]In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not, O Zion: let not thine hands be faint. |
| [17]יְהוָה אֱלֹהַיִךְ בְּקִרְבֵּך גִּבֹּור יֹושִׁיעַ יָשִׂישׂ עָלַיִךְ בְּשִׂמְחָה יַחֲרִישׁ בְּאַהֲבָתֹו יָגִיל עָלַיִךְ בְּרִנָּה׃ |
[17]The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty: he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy: he will quiet himself in his love: he will rejoice over thee with joy. |
| [18]נוּגֵי מִמֹּועֵד אָסַפְתִּי מִמֵּךְ הָיוּ מַשְׂאֵת עָלֶיהָ חֶרְפָּה׃ |
[18]After a certain time will I gather the afflicted that were of thee, and them that bear the reproach for it. |
| [19]הִנְנִי עֹשֶׂה אֶת־כָּל־מְעַנַּיִךְ בָּעֵת הַהִיא וְהֹושַׁעְתִּי אֶת־הַצֹּלֵעָה וְהַנִּדָּחָה אֲקַבֵּץ וְשַׂמְתִּים לִתְהִלָּה וּלְשֵׁם בְּכָל־הָאָרֶץ בָּשְׁתָּם׃ |
[19]Behold, at that time I will bruise all that afflict thee, and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was cast out, and I will get them praise and fame in all the lands of their shame. |
| [20]בָּעֵת הַהִיא אָבִיא אֶתְכֶם וּבָעֵת קַבְּצִי אֶתְכֶם כִּי־אֶתֵּן אֶתְכֶם לְשֵׁם וְלִתְהִלָּה בְּכֹל עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ בְּשׁוּבִי אֶת־שְׁבוּתֵיכֶם לְעֵינֵיכֶם אָמַר יְהוָה׃ |
[20]At that time will I bring you again, and then will I gather you: for I will give you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the Lord. |
