< Isaiah 5 >

1 I will sing now for my beloved, the song of my dear one touching his vineyard. A vineyard had my beloved on a rich hill-top;
Let me sing please to beloved [one] my a song of beloved my of vineyard his a vineyard it belonged to beloved [one] my on a horn of a son of oil.
2 And he fenced it in, and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vines, and built a tower in its midst, and also a winepress he hewed out therein: and he hoped that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth worthless fruit.
And he dug it and he cleared of stones it and he planted it a choice vine and he built a tower in [the] middle of it and also a wine-vat he dug out in it and he waited to produce grapes and it produced wild grapes.
3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard.
And therefore O inhabitant[s] of Jerusalem and everyone of Judah judge please between me and between vineyard my.
4 What more was to be done to my vineyard, that I had not done in it? Why then did I hope that it should bring forth grapes, while it brought forth worthless fruit?
What? [is] to do still for vineyard my and not I have done for it why? did I wait to produce grapes and did it produce wild grapes.
5 And now I will let you know also what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be eaten off; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trodden down;
And therefore let me make know please you [that] which I [am] about to do to vineyard my I will remove hedge its and it will become grazing I will break down wall its and it will become a trampling place.
6 And I will lay it quite waste; it shall not be pruned, nor hoed around; and it shall be overgrown with briers and thorns; and the clouds will I command that they send down no rain upon it.
And I will make it a desolation not it will be pruned and not it will be hoed and it will grow up thorn[s] and bush[es] and to the clouds I will command from raining on it rain.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of his delight: and he hoped for justice, but behold injustice; for equity, but behold iniquity.
For [the] vineyard of Yahweh of hosts [is] [the] house of Israel and everyone of Judah [is] [the] plantation of delight his and he waited for justice and there! bloodshed for righteousness and there! an outcry.
8 Woe unto those that cause house to join on house, bring field near to field, till there is no more room, so that ye may be left alone as the inhabitants in the midst of the land!
Woe to! [those who] make touch a house a house a field on a field they bring near until there not [is] room and you are made to dwell to alone you in [the] midst of the land.
9 In my ears [spoke] the Lord of hosts, Truly many houses shall become desolate, yea, great and beautiful ones without an inhabitant.
In ears my Yahweh of hosts if not houses many a waste they will become great [houses] and good [houses] from not inhabitant.
10 Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield [but] one bath, and a chomer-seed shall yield [but] an ephah.
For ten acres of vineyard they will produce a bath one and seed of a homer it will produce an ephah.
11 Woe unto those that rise up early in the morning, that they may run after strong drink; that continue until late in the twilight, till wine inflame them!
Woe to! [those who] rise early in the morning strong drink they pursue [those who] delay in the twilight wine it inflames them.
12 And there are harp and psaltery, tambourine and flute, and wine at their drinking-feasts; but the deeds of the Lord they regard not, and the works of his hands they behold not.
And it will be harp and lyre tambourine and flute and wine feast their and [the] deed[s] of Yahweh not they pay attention to and [the] work of hands his not they see.
13 Therefore are my people led into exile, for want of knowledge: and their honorable men suffer of famine, and their multitude are panting with thirst.
Therefore it will go into exile people my because not knowledge and honor its [will be] men of hunger and multitude its [will be] parched of thirst.
14 Therefore hath the deep enlarged her desire, and opened her mouth without measure: and there descend [Jerusalem's] glory, and her multitude, and her noise, and whoever rejoiced therein. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore it will enlarge Sheol throat its and it will open wide mouth its to not limit and it will go down splendor its and multitude its and uproar its and [one] exulting in it. (Sheol h7585)
15 And bent down shall be the son of earth, and humbled shall be the man, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled;
And he has been humbled everyone and he has become low everyone and [the] eyes of proud [people] they will become low.
16 And the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God shall be sanctified by [displaying his] righteousness.
And he was exalted Yahweh of hosts by judgment and God holy [will] show himself holy by righteousness.
17 Then shall the sheep feed according to their wont, and the ruins of the fat ones shall sojourners eat.
And they will graze lambs like own pasture their and [the] ruins of fatlings sojourners they will eat.
18 Woe unto those that draw iniquity with the cords of falsehood, and as with a wagon-rope, sinfulness;
Woe to! [those who] draw along iniquity with [the] cords of emptiness and like [the] rope of cart sin.
19 That say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it: and let draw nigh and come the counsel of the Holy One of Israel, that we may know it!
Those [who] say let it hurry - let it make haste! work his so that we may see and it may draw near and let it come! [the] plan of [the] holy [one] of Israel so we may know.
20 Woe unto those that say of the evil it is good, and of the good it is evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Woe to! those [who] say of evil good and of good evil [those who] make darkness into light and light into darkness [those who] make bitter into sweet and sweet into bitter.
21 Woe unto those that are wise in their own eyes, and intelligent in their own esteem!
Woe to! [people] wise in own eyes their and before own faces their discerning [people].
22 Woe unto those that are heroes to drink wine, and men of might to mingle strong drink;
Woe to! [men] mighty for drinking wine and people of ability for mixing strong drink.
23 Who justify the wicked in lieu of a bribe, and who deprive the righteous of their right!
[those who] justify a wicked [person] [the] consequence of A bribe and [the] righteousness of righteous [people] they take away from him.
24 Therefore as the tongue of the fire devoureth the stubble, and dry hay sinketh before the flame: so shall their root be as rotten things, and their blossom shall fly up as the dust; because they have despised the law of the Lord of hosts, and the word of the Holy One of Israel they have rejected.
Therefore as consumes stubble a tongue of fire and dry grass a flame it sinks down root their like rottenness it will be and blossom their like dust it will go up for they have rejected [the] law of Yahweh of hosts and [the] word of [the] holy [one] of Israel they have spurned.
25 For this cause is kindled the anger of the Lord against his people, and he stretcheth forth his hand against them, and he smiteth them; and the mountains tremble, and their carcasses lie like sweepings in the midst of the streets: with all this his anger is not turned away, but still is his hand stretched out.
There-fore it has burned [the] anger of Yahweh on people his and he has stretched out hand his on it and he has struck it and they have quaked the mountains and it was corpse their like offal in [the] middle of [the] streets for all this not it has turned away anger his and still hand his [is] stretched out.
26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from afar, and will call for one of them from the end of the earth; and, behold, with speed, swiftly, it cometh;
And he will lift up a standard for the nations from a distance and he will whistle for it from [the] end of the earth and there! quickly swift it will come.
27 There is none weary, nor stumbling among its men; it slumbereth not, it sleepeth not; not loosened is the girdle of its loins, not broken is the latchet of its shoes;
There not [is] a weary [one] and there not [is one who] stumbles among it not anyone will slumber and not anyone will sleep and not it has been opened [the] waistband of loins its and not it has been torn apart a thong of sandals its.
28 Whose arrows are sharpened, and all whose bows are bent; its horses hoofs are hard like the flint, and its wheels like the whirlwind;
Which arrows its [are] sharpened and all bows its [are] bent [the] hooves of horses its like flint they are regarded and wheels its like storm-wind.
29 It hath a roar like the lioness, it roareth like the young lions: yea, it growleth, and layeth hold of the prey, and carrieth it safely off, with none to deliver.
Roaring of it [is] like lion (it will roar *Q(K)*) like young lions so it may growl and it may seize prey so it may carry [it] off and there not [is] a deliverer.
30 And it will rage against them on that day like with the raging of the sea: and if one look unto the earth, behold, there is darkness, oppression, and the light is darkened through the darkness of its clouds.
And it may growl over it in the day that like [the] growling of [the] sea and someone will look to the land and there! darkness distress and light it has become dark by clouds its.
