1. And thou shalt not take a wife, saith the Lord God of Israel:
|
1. The word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 also unto H413 me, saying H559 ,
|
|
2. and there shall be no son born to thee, nor daughter in this place.
|
2. Thou shalt not H3808 take H3947 thee a wife H802 , neither H3808 shalt thou have H1961 sons H1121 or daughters H1323 in this H2088 place H4725 .
|
|
3. For thus saith the Lord concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that have born them, and concerning their fathers that have begotten them in this land;
|
3. For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 concerning H5921 the sons H1121 and concerning H5921 the daughters H1323 that are born H3209 in this H2088 place H4725 , and concerning H5921 their mothers H517 that bore H3205 them , and concerning H5921 their fathers H1 that begot H3205 them in this H2088 land H776 ;
|
|
4. They shall die of grievous death; they shall not be lamented, nor buried; they shall be for an example on the face of the earth; and they shall be for the wild beasts of the land, and for the birds of the sky: they shall fall by the sword, and shall be consumed with famine.
|
4. They shall die H4191 of grievous H8463 deaths H4463 ; they shall not H3808 be lamented H5594 ; neither H3808 shall they be buried H6912 ; but they shall be as dung H1828 upon H5921 the face H6440 of the earth H127 : and they shall be H1961 consumed H3615 by the sword H2719 , and by famine H7458 ; and their carcasses H5038 shall be meat H3978 for the fowls H5775 of heaven H8064 , and for the beasts H929 of the earth H776 .
|
|
5. Thus saith the Lord, Enter not into their mourning feast, and go not to lament, and mourn not for them: for I have removed my peace from this people.
|
5. For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 , Enter H935 not H408 into the house H1004 of mourning H4798 , neither H408 go H1980 to lament H5594 nor H408 bemoan H5110 them: for H3588 I have taken away H622 H853 my peace H7965 from H4480 H854 this H2088 people H5971 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , even H853 lovingkindness H2617 and mercies H7356 .
|
|
6. They shall not bewail them, nor make cuttings for them, and they shall not shave themselves for them:
|
6. Both the great H1419 and the small H6996 shall die H4191 in this H2063 land H776 : they shall not H3808 be buried H6912 , neither H3808 shall men lament H5594 for them: nor H3808 cut themselves H1413 , nor H3808 make themselves bald H7139 for them:
|
|
7. and there shall be no bread broken in mourning for them for consolation over the dead: they shall not give one to drink a cup for consolation over his father or his mother.
|
7. Neither H3808 shall men tear H6536 themselves for them in H5921 mourning H60 , to comfort H5162 them for H5921 the dead H4191 ; neither H3808 shall men give them the cup H3563 of consolation H8575 to drink H8248 for H5921 their father H1 or for H5921 their mother H517 .
|
|
8. Thou shalt not enter into the banquet-house, to sit with them to eat and to drink.
|
8. Thou shalt not H3808 also go H935 into the house H1004 of feasting H4960 , to sit H3427 with H854 them to eat H398 and to drink H8354 .
|
|
9. For thus saith the Lord God of Israel; Behold, I will make to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
|
9. For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 , the God H430 of Israel H3478 ; Behold H2009 , I will cause to cease H7673 out of H4480 this H2088 place H4725 in your eyes H5869 , and in your days H3117 , the voice H6963 of mirth H8342 , and the voice H6963 of gladness H8057 , the voice H6963 of the bridegroom H2860 , and the voice H6963 of the bride H3618 .
|
|
10. And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt report to this people all these words, and they shall say to thee, Wherefore has the Lord pronounced against us all these evils? what is our unrighteousness? and what is our sin which we have sinned before the Lord our God?
|
10. And it shall come to pass H1961 , when H3588 thou shalt show H5046 this H2088 people H5971 H853 all H3605 these H428 words H1697 , and they shall say H559 unto H413 thee, Wherefore H5921 H4100 hath the LORD H3068 pronounced H1696 H853 all H3605 this H2063 great H1419 evil H7451 against H5921 us? or what H4100 is our iniquity H5771 ? or what H4100 is our sin H2403 that H834 we have committed H2398 against the LORD H3068 our God H430 ?
|
|
11. Then thou shalt say to them, Because your fathers forsook me, saith the Lord, and went after strange gods and served them, and worshipped them, and forsook me, and kept not my law;
|
11. Then shalt thou say H559 unto H413 them, Because H5921 H834 your fathers H1 have forsaken H5800 me, saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , and have walked H1980 after H310 other H312 gods H430 , and have served H5647 them , and have worshiped H7812 them , and have forsaken H5800 me , and have not H3808 kept H8104 my law H8451 ;
|
|
12. (and ye sinned worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the lusts of your own evil heart, so as not to hearken to me);
|
12. And ye H859 have done H6213 worse H7489 than your fathers H4480 H1 ; for, behold H2009 , ye walk H1980 every one H376 after H310 the imagination H8307 of his evil H7451 heart H3820 , that they may not H1115 hearken H8085 unto H413 me:
|
|
13. therefore I will cast you off from this good land into Gr. the land a land which neither ye nor your fathers have known; and ye shall serve there other gods, who shall have no mercy upon you.
|
13. Therefore will I cast H2904 you out of H4480 H5921 this H2063 land H776 into H5921 a land H776 that H834 ye know H3045 not H3808 , neither ye H859 nor your fathers H1 ; and there H8033 shall ye serve H5647 H853 other H312 gods H430 day H3119 and night H3915 ; where H834 I will not H3808 show H5414 you favor H2594 .
|
|
14. Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when they shall no more say, The Lord lives, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
|
14. Therefore H3651 , behold H2009 , the days H3117 come H935 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , that it shall no H3808 more H5750 be said H559 , The LORD H3068 liveth H2416 , that H834 brought up H5927 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 ;
|
|
15. but, The Lord lives, who brought up the house of Israel from the land of the north, and from all countries whither they were thrust out: and I will restore them to their own land, which I gave to their fathers.
|
15. But H3588 H518 , The LORD H3068 liveth H2416 , that H834 brought up H5927 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 from the land H4480 H776 of the north H6828 , and from all H4480 H3605 the lands H776 whither H834 H8033 he had driven H5080 them : and I will bring them again H7725 into H5921 their land H127 that H834 I gave H5414 unto their fathers H1 .
|
|
16. Behold, I will send Gr. the many many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send many hunters, and they shall hunt them upon every mountain, and upon every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
|
16. Behold H2009 , I will send H7971 for many H7227 fishers H1771 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , and they shall fish H1770 them ; and after H310 H3651 will I send H7971 for many H7227 hunters H6719 , and they shall hunt H6679 them from H4480 H5921 every H3605 mountain H2022 , and from H4480 H5921 every H3605 hill H1389 , and out of the holes H4480 H5357 of the rocks H5553 .
|
|
17. For mine eyes are upon all their ways; and their iniquities have not been hidden from mine eyes.
|
17. For H3588 mine eyes H5869 are upon H5921 all H3605 their ways H1870 : they are not H3808 hid H5641 from my face H4480 H6440 , neither H3808 is their iniquity H5771 hid H6845 from H4480 H5048 mine eyes H5869 .
|
|
18. And I will recompense their mischiefs doubly, and their sins, whereby they have profaned my land with the carcases of their abominations, and with their iniquities, whereby they have trespassed against mine inheritance.
|
18. And first H7223 I will recompense H7999 their iniquity H5771 and their sin H2403 double H4932 ; because H5921 they have defiled H2490 H853 my land H776 , they have filled H4390 H853 mine inheritance H5159 with the carcasses H5038 of their detestable H8251 and abominable things H8441 .
|
|
19. O Lord, thou art my strength, and mine help, and my refuge in days of evil: to thee the Gentiles shall come from the end of the earth, and shall say, How vain were the idols which our fathers procured to themselves, and there is no help in them.
|
19. O LORD H3068 , my strength H5797 , and my fortress H4581 , and my refuge H4498 in the day H3117 of affliction H6869 , the Gentiles H1471 shall come H935 unto H413 thee from the ends H4480 H657 of the earth H776 , and shall say H559 , Surely H389 our fathers H1 have inherited H5157 lies H8267 , vanity H1892 , and things wherein there is no H369 profit H3276 .
|
|
20. Will a man make gods for himself, whereas these are no gods?
|
20. Shall a man H120 make H6213 gods H430 unto himself , and they H1992 are no H3808 gods H430 ?
|
|
21. Therefore, behold, I will at this time manifest my hand to them, and will make known to them my power; and they shall know that my name is the Lord.
|
21. Therefore H3651 , behold H2009 , I will this H2063 once H6471 cause them to know H3045 , I will cause them to know H3045 H853 mine hand H3027 and my might H1369 ; and they shall know H3045 that H3588 my name H8034 is The LORD H3068 .
