א
וַיָּבוֹא אֵלַי אֲנָשִׁים, מִזִּקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל; וַיֵּשְׁבוּ, לְפָנָי. {פ}
|
1
Then came certain of the elders of Yisrael unto me, and sat before me.
{P}
|
|
ב
וַיְהִי דְבַר-יְהוָה, אֵלַי לֵאמֹר.
|
2
And the word of YAHOWAH came unto me, saying:
|
|
ג
בֶּן-אָדָם, הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה הֶעֱלוּ גִלּוּלֵיהֶם עַל-לִבָּם, וּמִכְשׁוֹל עֲונָם, נָתְנוּ נֹכַח פְּנֵיהֶם: הַאִדָּרֹשׁ אִדָּרֵשׁ, לָהֶם. {ס}
|
3
'Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their mind, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face; should I be inquired of at all by them?
{S}
|
|
ד
לָכֵן דַּבֵּר-אוֹתָם וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם כֹּה-אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה, אִישׁ אִישׁ מִבֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר יַעֲלֶה אֶת-גִּלּוּלָיו אֶל-לִבּוֹ וּמִכְשׁוֹל עֲונוֹ יָשִׂים נֹכַח פָּנָיו, וּבָא, אֶל-הַנָּבִיא: אֲנִי יְהוָה, נַעֲנֵיתִי לוֹ בה (בָא)--בְּרֹב גִּלּוּלָיו.
|
4
Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them: Thus saith ADONAI YAHOWAH: Every man of the house of Yisrael that setteth up his idols in his mind, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet--I YAHOWAH will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols;
|
|
ה
לְמַעַן תְּפֹשׂ אֶת-בֵּית-יִשְׂרָאֵל, בְּלִבָּם, אֲשֶׁר נָזֹרוּ מֵעָלַי, בְּגִלּוּלֵיהֶם כֻּלָּם. {ס}
|
5
that I may take the house of Yisrael in their own heart, because they are all turned away from Me through their idols.
{S}
|
|
ו
לָכֵן אֱמֹר אֶל-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל, כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה, שׁוּבוּ וְהָשִׁיבוּ, מֵעַל גִּלּוּלֵיכֶם; וּמֵעַל כָּל-תּוֹעֲבֹתֵיכֶם, הָשִׁיבוּ פְנֵיכֶם.
|
6
Therefore say unto the house of Yisrael: Thus saith ADONAI YAHOWAH: Return ye, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
|
|
ז
כִּי אִישׁ אִישׁ מִבֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל, וּמֵהַגֵּר אֲשֶׁר-יָגוּר בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל, וְיִנָּזֵר מֵאַחֲרַי וְיַעַל גִּלּוּלָיו אֶל-לִבּוֹ, וּמִכְשׁוֹל עֲונוֹ יָשִׂים נֹכַח פָּנָיו; וּבָא אֶל-הַנָּבִיא, לִדְרָשׁ-לוֹ בִי--אֲנִי יְהוָה, נַעֲנֶה-לּוֹ בִּי.
|
7
For every one of the house of Yisrael, or of the strangers that sojourn in Yisrael, that separateth himself from Me, and taketh his idols into his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet, that he inquire for him of Me--I YAHOWAH will answer him by Myself,
|
|
ח
וְנָתַתִּי פָנַי בָּאִישׁ הַהוּא, וַהֲשִׂמֹתִיהוּ לְאוֹת וְלִמְשָׁלִים, וְהִכְרַתִּיו, מִתּוֹךְ עַמִּי; וִידַעְתֶּם, כִּי-אֲנִי יְהוָה. {ס}
|
8
and I will set My face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of My people; and ye shall know that I am YAHOWAH.
{S}
|
|
ט
וְהַנָּבִיא כִי-יְפֻתֶּה, וְדִבֶּר דָּבָר--אֲנִי יְהוָה פִּתֵּיתִי, אֵת הַנָּבִיא הַהוּא; וְנָטִיתִי אֶת-יָדִי, עָלָיו, וְהִשְׁמַדְתִּיו, מִתּוֹךְ עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵל.
|
9
And when the prophet is enticed and speaketh a word, I YAHOWAH have enticed that prophet, and I will stretch out My hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of My people Yisrael.
|
|
י
וְנָשְׂאוּ, עֲונָם: כַּעֲון, הַדֹּרֵשׁ--כַּעֲון הַנָּבִיא, יִהְיֶה.
|
10
And they shall bear their iniquity; the iniquity of the prophet shall be even as the iniquity of him that inquireth;
|
|
יא
לְמַעַן לֹא-יִתְעוּ עוֹד בֵּית-יִשְׂרָאֵל, מֵאַחֲרַי, וְלֹא-יִטַּמְּאוּ עוֹד, בְּכָל-פִּשְׁעֵיהֶם; וְהָיוּ-לִי לְעָם, וַאֲנִי אֶהְיֶה לָהֶם לֵאלֹהִים--נְאֻם, אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה. {פ}
|
11
that the house of Yisrael may go no more astray from Me, neither defile themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be My people, and I may be their Eloheem, saith ADONAI YAHOWAH.'
{P}
|
|
יב
וַיְהִי דְבַר-יְהוָה, אֵלַי לֵאמֹר.
|
12
And the word of YAHOWAH came unto me, saying:
|
|
יג
בֶּן-אָדָם, אֶרֶץ כִּי תֶחֱטָא-לִי לִמְעָל-מַעַל, וְנָטִיתִי יָדִי עָלֶיהָ, וְשָׁבַרְתִּי לָהּ מַטֵּה-לָחֶם; וְהִשְׁלַחְתִּי-בָהּ רָעָב, וְהִכְרַתִּי מִמֶּנָּה אָדָם וּבְהֵמָה.
|
13
'Son of man, when a land sinneth against Me by trespassing grievously, and I stretch out My hand upon it, and break the staff of the bread thereof, and send famine upon it, and cut off from it man and beast;
|
|
יד
וְהָיוּ שְׁלֹשֶׁת הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה, בְּתוֹכָהּ--נֹחַ, דנאל (דָּנִיֵּאל) וְאִיּוֹב: הֵמָּה בְצִדְקָתָם יְנַצְּלוּ נַפְשָׁם, נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה.
|
14
though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith ADONAI YAHOWAH.
|
|
טו
לוּ-חַיָּה רָעָה אַעֲבִיר בָּאָרֶץ, וְשִׁכְּלָתָּה; וְהָיְתָה שְׁמָמָה מִבְּלִי עוֹבֵר, מִפְּנֵי הַחַיָּה.
|
15
If I cause evil beasts to pass through the land, and they bereave it, and it be desolate, so that no man may pass through because of the beasts;
|
|
טז
שְׁלֹשֶׁת הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה, בְּתוֹכָהּ--חַי-אָנִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה, אִם-בָּנִים וְאִם-בָּנוֹת יַצִּילוּ: הֵמָּה לְבַדָּם יִנָּצֵלוּ, וְהָאָרֶץ תִּהְיֶה שְׁמָמָה.
|
16
though these three men were in it, as I live, saith ADONAI YAHOWAH, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
|
|
יז
אוֹ חֶרֶב אָבִיא, עַל-הָאָרֶץ הַהִיא; וְאָמַרְתִּי, חֶרֶב תַּעֲבֹר בָּאָרֶץ, וְהִכְרַתִּי מִמֶּנָּה, אָדָם וּבְהֵמָה.
|
17
Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say: Let the sword go through the land, so that I cut off from it man and beast;
|
|
יח
וּשְׁלֹשֶׁת הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה, בְּתוֹכָהּ--חַי-אָנִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה, לֹא יַצִּילוּ בָּנִים וּבָנוֹת: כִּי הֵם לְבַדָּם, יִנָּצֵלוּ.
|
18
though these three men were in it, as I live, saith ADONAI YAHOWAH, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
|
|
יט
אוֹ דֶּבֶר אֲשַׁלַּח, אֶל-הָאָרֶץ הַהִיא; וְשָׁפַכְתִּי חֲמָתִי עָלֶיהָ בְּדָם, לְהַכְרִית מִמֶּנָּה אָדָם וּבְהֵמָה.
|
19
Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out My fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast;
|
|
כ
וְנֹחַ דנאל (דָּנִיֵּאל) וְאִיּוֹב, בְּתוֹכָהּ--חַי-אָנִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה, אִם-בֵּן אִם-בַּת יַצִּילוּ: הֵמָּה בְצִדְקָתָם, יַצִּילוּ נַפְשָׁם. {פ}
|
20
though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith ADONAI YAHOWAH, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
{P}
|
|
כא
כִּי כֹה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה, אַף כִּי-אַרְבַּעַת שְׁפָטַי הָרָעִים חֶרֶב וְרָעָב וְחַיָּה רָעָה וָדֶבֶר, שִׁלַּחְתִּי, אֶל-יְרוּשָׁלִָם--לְהַכְרִית מִמֶּנָּה, אָדָם וּבְהֵמָה.
|
21
For thus saith ADONAI YAHOWAH: How much more when I send My four sore judgments against Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the evil beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast.
|
|
כב
וְהִנֵּה נוֹתְרָה-בָּהּ פְּלֵטָה, הַמּוּצָאִים בָּנִים וּבָנוֹת--הִנָּם יוֹצְאִים אֲלֵיכֶם, וּרְאִיתֶם אֶת-דַּרְכָּם וְאֶת-עֲלִילוֹתָם; וְנִחַמְתֶּם, עַל-הָרָעָה אֲשֶׁר הֵבֵאתִי עַל-יְרוּשָׁלִַם--אֵת כָּל-אֲשֶׁר הֵבֵאתִי, עָלֶיהָ.
|
22
And, behold, though there be left a remnant therein that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters; behold, when they come forth unto you, and ye see their way and their doings, then ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it;
|
|
כג
וְנִחֲמוּ אֶתְכֶם, כִּי-תִרְאוּ אֶת-דַּרְכָּם וְאֶת-עֲלִילוֹתָם; וִידַעְתֶּם, כִּי לֹא חִנָּם עָשִׂיתִי אֵת כָּל-אֲשֶׁר-עָשִׂיתִי בָהּ--נְאֻם, אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה. {פ}
|
23
and they shall comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings, and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith ADONAI YAHOWAH.'
{P}
