1. Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David camped. Add year on year; let feasts run their circle.
|
1. Woe H1945 to Ariel H740 , to Ariel H740 , the city H7151 where David H1732 dwelt H2583 ! add H5595 ye year H8141 to H5921 year H8141 ; let them kill H5362 sacrifices H2282 .
|
|
2. Then I will compress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and sorrow; and it shall be to Me as Ariel.
|
2. Yet I will distress H6693 Ariel H740 , and there shall be H1961 heaviness H8386 and sorrow H592 : and it shall be H1961 unto me as Ariel H740 .
|
|
3. And I will camp as a circle on you, and will lay siege work on you; and I will raise up ramparts on you.
|
3. And I will camp H2583 against H5921 thee round about H1754 , and will lay siege H6696 against H5921 thee with a mount H4674 , and I will raise H6965 forts H4694 against H5921 thee.
|
|
4. And you shall be brought low; you shall speak from the ground; and your speech shall be bowed down; and your voice shall be from the ground, like a medium; and your speech shall chirp out of the dust.
|
4. And thou shalt be brought down H8213 , and shalt speak H1696 out of the ground H4480 H776 , and thy speech H565 shall be low H7817 out of the dust H4480 H6083 , and thy voice H6963 shall be H1961 , as of one that hath a familiar spirit H178 , out of the ground H4480 H776 , and thy speech H565 shall whisper H6850 out of the dust H4480 H6083 .
|
|
5. And the host of your strangers shall be as fine powder, and as chaff passing, the host of terrifying ones; and it will be suddenly, instantly;
|
5. Moreover the multitude H1995 of thy strangers H2114 shall be H1961 like small H1851 dust H80 , and the multitude H1995 of the terrible ones H6184 shall be as chaff H4671 that passeth away H5674 : yea , it shall be H1961 at an instant H6621 suddenly H6597 .
|
|
6. you shall be visited from Jehovah of Hosts; with thunder and earthquake, and great noise, tempest and storm, and flame of devouring fire.
|
6. Thou shalt be visited H6485 of H4480 H5973 the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 with thunder H7482 , and with earthquake H7494 , and great H1419 noise H6963 , with storm H5492 and tempest H5591 , and the flame H3851 of devouring H398 fire H784 .
|
|
7. And the multitude of all the nations who fight against Ariel, even all battling her and compressing her and her stronghold, shall be like a dream of a night vision.
|
7. And the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 that fight H6633 against H5921 Ariel H740 , even all H3605 that fight H6633 against her and her munition H4685 , and that distress H6693 her , shall be H1961 as a dream H2472 of a night H3915 vision H2377 .
|
|
8. It shall even be as when a hungry one dreams; and, behold, he is eating; but when he awakes, his soul is empty. Or it shall be as when a thirsty one dreams; and, behold, he is drinking, but when he awakes, he is faint, and his soul is longing. So shall be the multitude of all the nations who fight against Mount Zion.
|
8. It shall even be H1961 as when H834 a hungry H7457 man dreameth H2492 , and, behold H2009 , he eateth H398 ; but he awaketh H6974 , and his soul H5315 is empty H7386 : or as when H834 a thirsty man H6771 dreameth H2492 , and, behold H2009 , he drinketh H8354 ; but he awaketh H6974 , and, behold H2009 , he is faint H5889 , and his soul H5315 hath appetite H8264 : so H3651 shall the multitude H1995 of all H3605 the nations H1471 be H1961 , that fight H6633 against H5921 mount H2022 Zion H6726 .

|
9. Wait and wonder! Blind yourselves, and be blind! They are drunk, but not with wine! They stagger, but not with fermented drink!
|
9. Stay yourselves H4102 , and wonder H8539 ; cry ye out H8173 , and cry H8173 : they are drunken H7937 , but not H3808 with wine H3196 ; they stagger H5128 , but not H3808 with strong drink H7941 .
|
|
10. For Jehovah has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes. He has covered the prophets and your heads, the seers.
|
10. For H3588 the LORD H3068 hath poured out H5258 upon H5921 you the spirit H7307 of deep sleep H8639 , and hath closed H6105 H853 your eyes H5869 : H853 the prophets H5030 and your rulers H7218 , the seers H2374 hath he covered H3680 .
|
|
11. And the whole vision to you is like the words of a sealed book which they give to one knowing books, saying, Please read this. Then he says, I am not able, for it is sealed.
|
11. And the vision H2380 of all H3605 is become H1961 unto you as the words H1697 of a book H5612 that is sealed H2856 , which H834 men deliver H5414 to H413 one that is learned H3045 H5612 , saying H559 , Read H7121 this H2088 , I pray thee H4994 : and he saith H559 , I cannot H3201 H3808 ; for H3588 it H1931 is sealed H2856 :
|
|
12. And the book is given to one who does not know books, saying, Please read this. Then he says, I do not know books.
|
12. And the book H5612 is delivered H5414 to H5921 him that H834 is not learned H3045 H3808 H5612 , saying H559 , Read H7121 this H2088 , I pray thee H4994 : and he saith H559 , I am not learned H3045 H3808 H5612 .
|
|
13. And the Lord says, Because this people draws near with its mouth, and they honor Me with its lip; but its heart is far from Me, and their fear of Me is taught by the commandments of men;
|
13. Wherefore the Lord H136 said H559 , Forasmuch H3282 H3588 as this H2088 people H5971 draw near H5066 me with their mouth H6310 , and with their lips H8193 do honor H3513 me , but have removed their heart far H7368 H3820 from H4480 me , and their fear H3374 toward H854 me is H1961 taught H3925 by the precept H4687 of men H376 :
|
|
14. So, behold, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, the wonder, even a wonder. For the wisdom of his wise ones shall perish, and the wit of his witty ones shall be hidden.
|
14. Therefore H3651 , behold H2009 , I will proceed H3254 to do a marvelous work H6381 among H854 this H2088 people H5971 , even a marvelous work H6381 and a wonder H6382 : for the wisdom H2451 of their wise H2450 men shall perish H6 , and the understanding H998 of their prudent H995 men shall be hid H5641 .
|
|
15. Woe to those who go deep to hide their purposes from Jehovah; yea, their works are in the dark; and they say, Who sees us? And, Who knows us?
|
15. Woe H1945 unto them that seek deep H6009 to hide H5641 their counsel H6098 from the LORD H4480 H3068 , and their works H4639 are H1961 in the dark H4285 , and they say H559 , Who H4310 seeth H7200 us? and who H4310 knoweth H3045 us?
|
|
16. Oh your perversity! Shall the former be counted as the clay? For shall the work of its maker say, He did not make me? Or shall the thing formed say to him who formed it, He does not understand?
|
16. Surely H518 your turning of things upside down H2017 shall be esteemed H2803 as the potter H3335 's clay H2563 : for H3588 shall the work H4639 say H559 of him that made H6213 it , He made H6213 me not H3808 ? or shall the thing framed H3336 say H559 of him that framed H3335 it , He had no understanding H995 H3808 ?
|
|
17. Is it not yet a little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field; and the fruitful field shall be counted for the forest?
|
17. Is it not H3808 yet H5750 a very H4213 little while H4592 , and Lebanon H3844 shall be turned H7725 into a fruitful field H3759 , and the fruitful field H3759 shall be esteemed H2803 as a forest H3293 ?
|
|
18. And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of a book; and the eyes of the blind shall see out of their gloom and out of darkness.
|
18. And in that H1931 day H3117 shall the deaf H2795 hear H8085 the words H1697 of the book H5612 , and the eyes H5869 of the blind H5787 shall see H7200 out of obscurity H4480 H652 , and out of darkness H4480 H2822 .
|
|
19. And the humble ones shall increase joy in Jehovah, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
|
19. The meek H6035 also shall increase H3254 their joy H8057 in the LORD H3068 , and the poor H34 among men H120 shall rejoice H1523 in the Holy One H6918 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
20. For the terrible one is brought to nothing; and the scorner is ended; and all that watch for iniquity are cut off;
|
20. For H3588 the terrible one H6184 is brought to naught H656 , and the scorner H3887 is consumed H3615 , and all H3605 that watch H8245 for iniquity H205 are cut off H3772 :
|
|
21. those who make a man sin by a word, even laying a trap for the reprover in the gate, and turn aside the just for a worthless thing.
|
21. That make a man an offender H2398 H120 for a word H1697 , and lay a snare H6983 for him that reproveth H3198 in the gate H8179 , and turn aside H5186 the just H6662 for a thing of naught H8414 .
|
|
22. So Jehovah says this: He who redeemed Abraham, as to the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not be ashamed now, nor shall his face become pale now.
|
22. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 , who H834 redeemed H6299 H853 Abraham H85 , concerning H413 the house H1004 of Jacob H3290 , Jacob H3290 shall not H3808 now H6258 be ashamed H954 , neither H3808 shall his face H6440 now H6258 wax pale H2357 .
|
|
23. But when he sees his children in his midst, the work of My hands, they shall sanctify My name. They shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
|
23. But when H3588 he seeth H7200 his children H3206 , the work H4639 of mine hands H3027 , in the midst H7130 of him , they shall sanctify H6942 my name H8034 , and sanctify H6942 H853 the Holy One H6918 of Jacob H3290 , and shall fear H6206 the God H430 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
24. Those who erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and those who murmured shall learn the instruction.
|
24. They also that erred H8582 in spirit H7307 shall come H3045 to understanding H998 , and they that murmured H7279 shall learn H3925 doctrine H3948 .
