TOJB2011 ▾Yeshayah ▾33 ▾Yeshayah 331Hoy (woe, doom) to thee that destroyest, and thou wast not destroyed; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously as a boged (traitor, treacherous person) with thee! When thou shalt cease to destroy, thou shalt be destroyed; and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously as a boged with thee.2Hashem , be gracious unto us; we have waited for Thee; be Thou their zero'a in the bekarim (mornings) , our Yeshu'ah (salvation) also in the time of tzoros.3At the noise of the tumult the peoples fled; at the lifting up of Thyself the Goyim were scattered.4And your shalal (booty, plunder, gain) shall be gathered like the gathering of the locusts; as the swarm of grasshoppers shall men pounce upon them.5Hashem is exalted; for He dwelleth on high; He hath filled Tziyon with mishpat and tzedakah.6And He shall be the emunah (faithfulness, stability) of thy times, a rich store of Yeshu'ah (salvation) , chochmah, and da'as; the yirat Hashem is his otzar (treasure) .7Behold, their valiant ones shall cry in the street; the malachei shalom shall weep bitterly.8The mesillot (highways) lie in ruins, the wayfaring man ceaseth; he hath annulled the brit (covenant) , he hath despised the towns, he regardeth no enosh (humankind) .9Ha'aretz mourneth and languisheth; Levanon is ashamed and shriveled; Sharon is like an aravah; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their foliage.10Now will I arise, saith Hashem ; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up Myself.11Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth straw; your ruach (breath) , as eish, shall devour you.12And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime; as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the eish.13Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My gevurah (might) .14The chatta'im (sinners) in Tziyon are terrified; trembling hath seized the khanafim (hypocrites) . Who among us can dwell with the devouring eish? Who among us can dwell with mokedei olam (everlasting burnings) ?15He that walketh in tzedakot, and speaketh meisharim (right things) , he that despiseth the gain of extortions, that guards his palms from accepting shochad (bribe[s]) , that stoppeth his ozen from hearing of dahm, and shutteth his eynayim from seeing rah;16He shall dwell on high; his metzadot shall be the rocky fortress; his lechem shall be given him; his mayim shall be unfailing.17Thine eynayim shall see Melech in His yafeh (beauty) ; they shall behold eretz that is very far off.18Thine lev shall ponder terror. Where is the sofer (scribe) ? Where is he who weighs? Where is he that counts the migdalim (towers) ?19Thou shalt no longer see a fierce people, a people of unfathomable language that is incomprehensible, of a stammering lashon, that thou canst not understand.20Look upon Tziyon, the city of mo'adenu (our appointed times, festivals) ; thine eynayim shall see Yerushalayim a quiet naveh, an ohel that shall not be taken down; not one stake thereof shall ever be pulled up, neither shall any of the ropes thereof be broken.21But there Adir Hashem will be unto us a makom (place) of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall a mighty ship pass thereby.22For Hashem is our Shofet, Hashem is Mechokkeinu (our Lawgiver) , Hashem is Malkeinu; Hu yoshieinu (He will save us) .23Thy riggings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the nes (sail) ; then is the shalal (spoil, plunder) of a great plunder divided; the pisechim (lame ones) take the plunder.24And the inhabitant [of Yerushalayim] shall not say, I am ill; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their avon.Yeshayah 32Yeshayah 34
