5:1 ¶
Hear°°
ye°
this°
word°
which°
I°
take up°°
against°
you, [even] a lamentation,°
O house°
of Israel.° |
|
5:2
The virgin of Israel has fallen upon his land; there is none that shall raise her up. |
|
5:2
The virgin°
of Israel°
is fallen;°°
she shall no°
more°°
rise:°°
she is forsaken°°
upon°
her land;°
[there is] none°
to raise her up.°° |
|
5:3
Therefore thus saith the Lord God; The city out of which there went forth a thousand, [in it] there shall be left a hundred, and [in that] out of which there went forth a hundred, there shall be left ten to the house of Israel. |
|
5:3
For°
thus°
saith°°
Adonai°
Yahweh;°
The city°
that went out°°
[by] a thousand°
shall leave°°
an hundred,°
and that which went forth°°
[by] an hundred°
shall leave°°
ten,°
to the house°
of Israel.° |
|
5:4 ¶
Wherefore thus saith the Lord to the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live. |
|
5:4 ¶
For°
thus°
saith°°
Yahweh°
unto the house°
of Israel,°
Seek°°
ye me, and ye shall live:°° |
|
5:5
But seek not Bethel, and go not into Gilgal{gr.Galgala}, and cross not over to the Well of the Oath: for Gilgal{gr.Galgala} shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall be as that which is not. |
|
5:5
But seek°°
not°
Bethel,°
nor°
enter°°
into Gilgal,°
and pass°°
not°
to Beersheba:°
for°
Gilgal°
shall surely°°
go into captivity,°°
and Bethel°
shall come°
to nought.° |
|
5:6
Seek ye the Lord, and ye shall live; lest the house of Joseph blaze as fire, and it devour him, and there shall be none to quench it for the house of Israel. |
|
5:6
Seek°°°
Yahweh,°
and ye shall live;°°
lest°
he break out°°
like fire°
in the house°
of Joseph,°
and devour°°
[it], and [there be] none°
to quench°°
[it] in Bethel.° |
|
5:7
[It is he] that executes judgment in the height [above], and he has established justice on the earth: |
|
5:7
Ye who turn°°
judgment°
to wormwood,°
and leave off°°°
righteousness°
in the earth,° |
|
5:8
who makes all things, and changes [them], and turns darkness into the morning, and darkens the day into night: who calls for the water of the sea, and pours it out on the face of the earth: the Lord is his name: |
|
5:8
[Seek him] that maketh°°
the seven stars°
and Orion,°
and turneth°°
the shadow of death°
into the morning,°
and maketh the day°
dark°°°
with night:°
that calleth°°
for the waters°
of the sea,°
and poureth them out°°
upon°
the face°
of the earth:°
Yahweh°
[is] his name:° |
|
5:9
who dispenses ruin to strength, and brings distress upon the fortress. |
|
5:9
That strengtheneth°°
the spoiled°
against°
the strong,°°
so that the spoiled°
shall come°°
against°
the fortress.° |
|
5:10
They hated him that reproved in the gates, and abhorred holy speech. |
|
5:10
They hate°°
him that rebuketh°°
in the gate,°
and they abhor°°
him that speaketh°°
uprightly.° |
|
5:11
Therefore because they have smitten the poor with their fists, and ye have received of them choice gifts; ye have built polished houses, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted desirable vineyards, but ye shall not drink the wine of them. |
|
5:11
Forasmuch°
therefore°
as your treading°°
[is] upon°
the poor,°
and ye take°°
from°
him burdens°
of wheat:°
ye have built°°
houses°
of hewn stone,°
but ye shall not°
dwell°°
in them; ye have planted°°
pleasant°
vineyards,°
but ye shall not°
drink°°°
wine°
of them. |
|
5:12
For I know your many transgressions, and your sins are great, trampling on the just, taking bribes, and turning aside [the judgment of] the poor in the gates. |
|
5:12
For°
I know°°
your manifold°
transgressions°
and your mighty°
sins:°
they afflict°°
the just,°
they take°°
a bribe,°
and they turn aside°°
the poor°
in the gate°
[from their right]. |
|
5:13
Therefore the prudent shall be silent at that time; for it is a time of evils. |
|
5:13
Therefore°
the prudent°°
shall keep silence°°
in that°
time;°
for°
it°
[is] an evil°
time.° |
|
5:14
Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord God Almighty shall be with you, as ye have said, |
|
5:14
Seek°°
good,°
and not°
evil,°
that°
ye may live:°°
and so°
Yahweh,°
the Elohim°
Sabaoth,°
shall be°
with°
you, as°
ye have spoken.°° |
|
5:15
We have hated evil, and loved good: and restore ye judgment in the gates; that the Lord God Almighty may have mercy on the remnant of Joseph. |
|
5:15
Hate°°
the evil,°
and love°°
the good,°
and establish°°
judgment°
in the gate:°
it may be°
that Yahweh°
Elohim°
Sabaoth°
will be gracious°°
unto the remnant°
of Joseph.° |
|
5:16
Therefore thus saith the Lord God Almighty; In all the streets [shall be] lamentations; and in all the ways shall it be said, Woe, woe! the husbandman shall be called to mourning and lamentation, and to them that are skilled in complaining. |
|
5:16
Therefore°
Yahweh,°
the Elohim°
Sabaoth,°
Yahweh,°
saith°°
thus;°
Wailing°
[shall be] in all°
streets;°
and they shall say°°
in all°
the highways,°
Alas!°
alas!°
and they shall call°°
the husbandman°
to°
mourning,°
and such as are skilful°°
of lamentation°
to°
wailing.° |
|
5:17
And [there shall be] lamentation in all the ways; because I will pass through the midst of thee, saith the Lord. |
|
5:17
And in all°
vineyards°
[shall be] wailing:°
for°
I will pass°°
through°
thee, saith°°
Yahweh.° |
|
5:18
Woe to you that desire the day of the Lord! what is this day of the Lord to you? whereas it is darkness, and not light. |
|
5:18
Woe°
unto you that desire°°°
the day°
of Yahweh!°
to what end°
[is] it°
for you? the day°
of Yahweh°
[is] darkness,°
and not°
light.° |
|
5:19
As if a man should flee from the face of a lion, and a bear should meet him; and he should spring into his house, and lean his hands upon the wall, and a serpent should bite him. |
|
5:19
As if°
a man°
did flee°°
from°°
a lion,°
and a bear°
met°°
him; or went°°
into the house,°
and leaned°°
his hand°
on°
the wall,°
and a serpent°
bit°°
him. |
|
5:20
Is not the day of the Lord darkness, and not light? and is not this [day] gloom without brightness? |
|
5:20
[Shall] not°
the day°
of Yahweh°
[be] darkness,°
and not°
light?°
even very dark,°
and no°
brightness°
in it? |
|
5:21 ¶
I hate, I reject your feasts, and I will not smell [your] meat-offerings in your general assemblies. |
|
5:21 ¶
I hate,°°
I despise°°
your feast days,°
and I will not°
smell°°
in your solemn assemblies.° |
|
5:22
Wherefore if ye should bring me your whole-burnt-sacrifices and meat-offerings, I will not accept [them]: neither will I have respect to your grand peace-offerings. |
|
5:22
Though°°
ye offer°°
me burnt offerings°
and your meat offerings,°
I will not°
accept°°
[them]: neither°
will I regard°°
the peace offerings°
of your fat beasts.° |
|
5:23
Remove from me the sound of thy songs, and I will not hear the music of thine instruments. |
|
5:23
Take thou away°°
from°°
me the noise°
of thy songs;°
for I will not°
hear°°
the melody°
of thy viols.° |
|
5:24
But let judgment roll down as water, and righteousness as an impassable torrent. |
|
5:24
But let judgment°
run down°°
as waters,°
and righteousness°
as a mighty°
stream.° |
|
5:25
Have ye offered to me victims and sacrifices, O house of Israel, forty years in the wilderness? |
|
5:25
Have ye offered°°
unto me sacrifices°
and offerings°
in the wilderness°
forty°
years,°
O house°
of Israel?° |
|
5:26
Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Molech{gr.Moloch}, and the star of your god Raephan, the images of them which ye made for yourselves. |
|
5:26
But ye have borne°°°
the tabernacle°
of your Moloch°°
and Chiun°
your images,°
the star°
of your elohim,°
which°
ye made°°
to yourselves. |
|
5:27

beyond°°
Damascus,°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
whose name°
[is] The Elohim°
Sabaoth.° |
