1. The sin of Judah is engraved with an iron pen. It is carved on the tablet of their heart with the point of a diamond, and on the horns of your altars,
|
1. The sin H2403 of Judah H3063 is written H3789 with a pen H5842 of iron H1270 , and with the point H6856 of a diamond H8068 : it is graven H2790 upon H5921 the table H3871 of their heart H3820 , and upon the horns H7161 of your altars H4196 ;
|
|
2. even while their sons remember their altars and their Asherahs by the green trees on the high hills.
|
2. Whilst their children H1121 remember H2142 their altars H4196 and their groves H842 by H5921 the green H7488 trees H6086 upon H5921 the high H1364 hills H1389 .
|
|
3. O My mountain in the field! I will give your wealth, all your treasures, for prey, your high places for sin throughout all your borders.
|
3. O my mountain H2042 in the field H7704 , I will give H5414 thy substance H2428 and all H3605 thy treasures H214 to the spoil H957 , and thy high places H1116 for sin H2403 , throughout all H3605 thy borders H1366 .
|
|
4. And you, even through yourself, will let drop from your inheritance which I gave you. And I will cause you to serve your enemies in a land which you do not know. For you have kindled a fire in My anger; it will burn forever.
|
4. And thou , even thyself , shalt discontinue H8058 from thine heritage H4480 H5159 that H834 I gave H5414 thee ; and I will cause thee to serve H5647 H853 thine enemies H341 in the land H776 which H834 thou knowest H3045 not H3808 : for H3588 ye have kindled H6919 a fire H784 in mine anger H639 , which shall burn H3344 forever H5704 H5769 .
|
|
5. So says Jehovah, Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and who makes flesh his arm, and who turns aside his heart from Jehovah.
|
5. Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 ; Cursed H779 be the man H1397 that H834 trusteth H982 in man H120 , and maketh H7760 flesh H1320 his arm H2220 , and whose heart H3820 departeth H5493 from H4480 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
6. For he shall be like a juniper in the desert, and shall not see when good comes. But he shall live in parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land that is not inhabited.
|
6. For he shall be H1961 like the heath H6176 in the desert H6160 , and shall not H3808 see H7200 when H3588 good H2896 cometh H935 ; but shall inhabit H7931 the parched places H2788 in the wilderness H4057 , in a salt H4420 land H776 and not H3808 inhabited H3427 .
|
|
7. Blessed is the man who trusts in Jehovah, and Jehovah is his refuge.
|
7. Blessed H1288 is the man H1397 that H834 trusteth H982 in the LORD H3068 , and whose hope H4009 the LORD H3068 is H1961 .
|
|
8. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters. It sends out its roots by the stream, and it will not fear when the heat comes; but its foliage will be green; and it is not anxious in the year of drought, nor will it cease from yielding fruit.
|
8. For he shall be H1961 as a tree H6086 planted H8362 by H5921 the waters H4325 , and that spreadeth out H7971 her roots H8328 by H5921 the river H3105 , and shall not H3808 see H7200 when H3588 heat H2527 cometh H935 , but her leaf H5929 shall be H1961 green H7488 ; and shall not H3808 be careful H1672 in the year H8141 of drought H1226 , neither H3808 shall cease H4185 from yielding H4480 H6213 fruit H6529 .
|
|
9. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is incurable; who can know it?
|
9. The heart H3820 is deceitful H6121 above all H4480 H3605 things , and desperately wicked H605 : who H4310 can know H3045 it?
|
|
10. I, Jehovah, search the heart, I try the reins, even to give to each man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
|
10. I H589 the LORD H3068 search H2713 the heart H3820 , I try H974 the reins H3629 , even to give H5414 every man H376 according to his ways H1870 , and according to the fruit H6529 of his doings H4611 .
|
|
11. As a partridge broods and does not hatch, so is he who makes riches, and not by right; it will leave him in the middle of his days, and in his end he will be a fool.
|
11. As the partridge H7124 sitteth H1716 on eggs , and hatcheth H3205 them not H3808 ; so he that getteth H6213 riches H6239 , and not H3808 by right H4941 , shall leave H5800 them in the midst H2677 of his days H3117 , and at his end H319 shall be H1961 a fool H5036 .
|
|
12. A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
|
12. A glorious H3519 high H4791 throne H3678 from the beginning H4480 H7223 is the place H4725 of our sanctuary H4720 .
|
|
13. O Jehovah, the Hope of Israel, all who forsake You shall be ashamed. Those who depart from Me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken Jehovah, the Fountain of living waters.
|
13. O LORD H3068 , the hope H4723 of Israel H3478 , all H3605 that forsake H5800 thee shall be ashamed H954 , and they that depart from H3249 me shall be written H3789 in the earth H776 , because H3588 they have forsaken H5800 H853 the LORD H3068 , the fountain H4726 of living H2416 waters H4325 .
|
|
14. Heal me, O Jehovah, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved; for You are my praise.
|
14. Heal H7495 me , O LORD H3068 , and I shall be healed H7495 ; save H3467 me , and I shall be saved H3467 : for H3588 thou H859 art my praise H8416 .
|
|
15. Behold, they say to me, Where is the Word of Jehovah? Let it come now.
|
15. Behold H2009 , they H1992 say H559 unto H413 me, Where H346 is the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 ? let it come H935 now H4994 .
|
|
16. And I have not hurried away from shepherding after You, nor have I desired the woeful day. You surely know that the utterance of my lips was before Your face.
|
16. As for me, I H589 have not H3808 hastened H213 from being a pastor H4480 H7462 to follow H310 thee: neither H3808 have I desired H183 the woeful H605 day H3117 ; thou H859 knowest H3045 : that which came H4161 out of H6440 my lips H8193 was H1961 right before H5227 H6440 thee.
|
|
17. Do not be a terror to me; You are my refuge in the day of evil.
|
17. Be H1961 not H408 a terror H4288 unto me: thou H859 art my hope H4268 in the day H3117 of evil H7451 .
|
|
18. Let those who persecute me be ashamed, but do not let me be ashamed. Let them be terrified, but do not let me be terrified. Bring on them the day of evil, and break them with double breaking.
|
18. Let them be confounded H954 that persecute H7291 me , but let not H408 me H589 be confounded H954 : let them H1992 be dismayed H2865 , but let not H408 me H589 be dismayed H2865 : bring H935 upon H5921 them the day H3117 of evil H7451 , and destroy H7665 them with double H4932 destruction H7670 .
|
|
19. So said Jehovah to me, Go and stand in the gate of the sons of the people, that by which the kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.
|
19. Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 unto H413 me; Go H1980 and stand H5975 in the gate H8179 of the children H1121 of the people H5971 , whereby H834 the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 come in H935 , and by the which H834 they go out H3318 , and in all H3605 the gates H8179 of Jerusalem H3389 ;
|
|
20. And say to them, Hear the Word of Jehovah, kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the residents of Jerusalem who enter in by these gates.
|
20. And say H559 unto H413 them, Hear H8085 ye the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 , ye kings H4428 of Judah H3063 , and all H3605 Judah H3063 , and all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 , that enter in H935 by these H428 gates H8179 :
|
|
21. So says Jehovah, Take heed for the sake of your lives, and do not carry a burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
|
21. Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 ; Take heed H8104 to yourselves H5315 , and bear H5375 no H408 burden H4853 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117 , nor bring it in H935 by the gates H8179 of Jerusalem H3389 ;
|
|
22. And do not carry a burden from your houses on the sabbath day, nor do any work, but keep the sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers.
|
22. Neither H3808 carry forth H3318 a burden H4853 out of your houses H4480 H1004 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117 , neither H3808 do H6213 ye any H3605 work H4399 , but hallow H6942 ye H853 the sabbath H7676 day H3117 , as H834 I commanded H6680 your fathers H1 .
|
|
23. But they did not obey nor bow down their ear, but they made their neck stiff, not to hear, nor to receive instruction.
|
23. But they obeyed H8085 not H3808 , neither H3808 inclined H5186 H853 their ear H241 , but made H853 their neck H6203 stiff H7185 , that they might not H1115 hear H8085 , nor H1115 receive H3947 instruction H4148 .
|
|
24. And it shall be, if you carefully listen to me, says Jehovah, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but keep the sabbath day holy, to do no work in it,
|
24. And it shall come to pass H1961 , if H518 ye diligently hearken H8085 H8085 unto H413 me, saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , to bring in H935 no H1115 burden H4853 through the gates H8179 of this H2063 city H5892 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117 , but hallow H6942 H853 the sabbath H7676 day H3117 , to do H6213 no H1115 H3605 work H4399 therein;
|
|
25. even kings and rulers sitting on the throne of David shall enter into the gates of this city, riding on chariots and on horses, they and their rulers, the men of Judah, and those living in Jerusalem. And this city will be inhabited forever.
|
25. Then shall there enter H935 into the gates H8179 of this H2063 city H5892 kings H4428 and princes H8269 sitting H3427 upon H5921 the throne H3678 of David H1732 , riding H7392 in chariots H7393 and on horses H5483 , they H1992 , and their princes H8269 , the men H376 of Judah H3063 , and the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 : and this H2063 city H5892 shall remain H3427 forever H5769 .
|
|
26. And they will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowland, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and grain offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah.
|
26. And they shall come H935 from the cities H4480 H5892 of Judah H3063 , and from the places about H4480 H5439 Jerusalem H3389 , and from the land H4480 H776 of Benjamin H1144 , and from H4480 the plain H8219 , and from H4480 the mountains H2022 , and from H4480 the south H5045 , bringing H935 burnt offerings H5930 , and sacrifices H2077 , and meat offerings H4503 , and incense H3828 , and bringing H935 sacrifices of praise H8426 , unto the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
27. But if you will not listen to Me to keep the sabbath day holy, and to not carry a burden and enter at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in her gates. And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem; yea, it shall not be put out.
|
27. But if H518 ye will not H3808 hearken H8085 unto H413 me to hallow H6942 H853 the sabbath H7676 day H3117 , and not H1115 to bear H5375 a burden H4853 , even entering H935 in at the gates H8179 of Jerusalem H3389 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117 ; then will I kindle H3341 a fire H784 in the gates H8179 thereof , and it shall devour H398 the palaces H759 of Jerusalem H3389 , and it shall not H3808 be quenched H3518 .
