Jeremiah 33
1 And there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah a second time—and he [is] yet detained in the court of the prison—saying:
| וַיְהִ֧י דְבַר־יְהוָ֛ה אֶֽל־יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ שֵׁנִ֑ית וְהוּא֙ עֹודֶ֣נּוּ עָצ֔וּר בַּחֲצַ֥ר הַמַּטָּרָ֖ה לֵאמֹֽר׃ |
2 “Thus said YHWH who has made it, YHWH who has formed it, to establish it, YHWH [is] His Name:
| כֹּֽה־אָמַ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה עֹשָׂ֑הּ יְהוָ֗ה יֹוצֵ֥ר אֹותָ֛הּ לַהֲכִינָ֖הּ יְהוָ֥ה שְׁמֹֽו׃ |
3 Call to Me, and I answer you, indeed, I declare to you great and inaccessible things—you have not known them.
| קְרָ֥א אֵלַ֖י וְאֶעֱנֶ֑ךָּ וְאַגִּ֧ידָה לְּךָ֛ גְּדֹלֹ֥ות וּבְצֻרֹ֖ות לֹ֥א יְדַעְתָּֽם׃ ס |
4 For thus said YHWH, God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah that are broken down for the [siege] mounds, and for the tool;
| כִּי֩ כֹ֨ה אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל עַל־בָּתֵּי֙ הָעִ֣יר הַזֹּ֔את וְעַל־בָּתֵּ֖י מַלְכֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֑ה הַנְּתֻצִ֕ים אֶל־הַסֹּלְלֹ֖ות וְאֶל־הֶחָֽרֶב׃ |
5 they are coming to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the carcasses of men, whom I have struck in My anger, and in My fury, and [for] whom I have hidden My face from this city, because of all their evil:
| בָּאִ֗ים לְהִלָּחֵם֙ אֶת־הַכַּשְׂדִּ֔ים וּלְמַלְאָם֙ אֶת־פִּגְרֵ֣י הָאָדָ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־הִכֵּ֥יתִי בְאַפִּ֖י וּבַחֲמָתִ֑י וַאֲשֶׁ֨ר הִסְתַּ֤רְתִּי פָנַי֙ מֵהָעִ֣יר הַזֹּ֔את עַ֖ל כָּל־רָעָתָֽם׃ |
6 Behold, I am increasing health and cure to it, And have healed them, and revealed to them The abundance of peace and truth.
| הִנְנִ֧י מַעֲלֶה־לָּ֛הּ אֲרֻכָ֥ה וּמַרְפֵּ֖א וּרְפָאתִ֑ים וְגִלֵּיתִ֣י לָהֶ֔ם עֲתֶ֥רֶת שָׁלֹ֖ום וֶאֱמֶֽת׃ |
7 And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first,
| וַהֲשִֽׁבֹתִי֙ אֶת־שְׁב֣וּת יְהוּדָ֔ה וְאֵ֖ת שְׁב֣וּת יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּבְנִתִ֖ים כְּבָרִֽאשֹׁנָֽה׃ |
8 And cleansed them from all their iniquity That they have sinned against Me, And I have pardoned all their iniquities That they have sinned against Me, And that they transgressed against Me.
| וְטִ֣הַרְתִּ֔ים מִכָּל־עֲוֹנָ֖ם אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָֽטְאוּ־לִ֑י וְסָלַחְתִּ֗י לְכֹול־ (לְכָל)־עֲוֹנֹֽותֵיהֶם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָֽטְאוּ־לִ֔י וַאֲשֶׁ֖ר פָּ֥שְׁעוּ בִֽי׃ |
9 And it has been for a name of joy to Me, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing to it.”
| וְהָ֣יְתָה לִּ֗י לְשֵׁ֤ם שָׂשֹׂון֙ לִתְהִלָּ֣ה וּלְתִפְאֶ֔רֶת לְכֹ֖ל גֹּויֵ֣י הָאָ֑רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִשְׁמְע֜וּ אֶת־כָּל־הַטֹּובָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֤ר אָֽנֹכִי֙ עֹשֶׂ֣ה אֹתָ֔ם וּפָחֲד֣וּ וְרָֽגְז֗וּ עַ֤ל כָּל־הַטֹּובָה֙ וְעַ֣ל כָּל־הַשָּׁלֹ֔ום אֲשֶׁ֥ר אָֽנֹכִ֖י עֹ֥שֶׂה לָּֽהּ׃ ס |
10 Thus said YHWH: “Again is heard in this place—of which you are saying, It [is] dry, without man and without beast, In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, That are desolated, without man, And without inhabitant, and without beast—
| כֹּ֣ה ׀ אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֗ה עֹוד֮ יִשָּׁמַ֣ע בַּמָּקֹום־הַזֶּה֒ אֲשֶׁר֙ אַתֶּ֣ם אֹֽמְרִ֔ים חָרֵ֣ב ה֔וּא מֵאֵ֥ין אָדָ֖ם וּמֵאֵ֣ין בְּהֵמָ֑ה בְּעָרֵ֤י יְהוּדָה֙ וּבְחֻצֹ֣ות יְרוּשָׁלַ֔͏ִם הַֽנְשַׁמֹּ֗ות מֵאֵ֥ין אָדָ֛ם וּמֵאֵ֥ין יֹושֵׁ֖ב וּמֵאֵ֥ין בְּהֵמָֽה׃ |
11 A voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank YHWH of Hosts, for YHWH [is] good, For His kindness [is] for all time, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of YHWH, For I return the captivity of the land, As at the first,” said YHWH.
| קֹ֣ול שָׂשֹׂ֞ון וְקֹ֣ול שִׂמְחָ֗ה קֹ֣ול חָתָן֮ וְקֹ֣ול כַּלָּה֒ קֹ֣ול אֹמְרִ֡ים הֹודוּ֩ אֶת־יְהוָ֨ה צְבָאֹ֜ות כִּֽי־טֹ֤וב יְהוָה֙ כִּֽי־לְעֹולָ֣ם חַסְדֹּ֔ו מְבִאִ֥ים תֹּודָ֖ה בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה כִּֽי־אָשִׁ֧יב אֶת־שְׁבוּת־הָאָ֛רֶץ כְּבָרִאשֹׁנָ֖ה אָמַ֥ר יְהוָֽה׃ ס |
12 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Again there is in this place—that is dry, Without man and beast, And in all its cities—a habitation of shepherds, Causing the flock to lie down.
| כֹּֽה־אָמַר֮ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָאֹות֒ עֹ֞וד יִֽהְיֶ֣ה ׀ בַּמָּקֹ֣ום הַזֶּ֗ה הֶחָרֵ֛ב מֵֽאֵין־אָדָ֥ם וְעַד־בְּהֵמָ֖ה וּבְכָל־עָרָ֑יו נְוֵ֣ה רֹעִ֔ים מַרְבִּצִ֖ים צֹֽאן׃ |
13 In the cities of the hill-country, In the cities of the low country, And in the cities of the south, And in the land of Benjamin, And in the outskirts of Jerusalem, And in the cities of Judah, Again the flock passes by under the hands of the numberer,” said YHWH.
| בְּעָרֵ֨י הָהָ֜ר בְּעָרֵ֤י הַשְּׁפֵלָה֙ וּבְעָרֵ֣י הַנֶּ֔גֶב וּבְאֶ֧רֶץ בִּנְיָמִ֛ן וּבִסְבִיבֵ֥י יְרוּשָׁלַ֖͏ִם וּבְעָרֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֑ה עֹ֣ד תַּעֲבֹ֧רְנָה הַצֹּ֛אן עַל־יְדֵ֥י מֹונֶ֖ה אָמַ֥ר יְהוָֽה׃ ס |
14 “Behold, days are coming,” a declaration of YHWH, “And I have established the good word That I spoke to the house of Israel, And concerning the house of Judah.
| הִנֵּ֛ה יָמִ֥ים בָּאִ֖ים נְאֻם־יְהוָ֑ה וַהֲקֽ͏ִמֹתִי֙ אֶת־הַדָּבָ֣ר הַטֹּ֔וב אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבַּ֛רְתִּי אֶל־בֵּ֥ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל וְעַל־בֵּ֥ית יְהוּדָֽה׃ |
15 In those days, and at that time, I cause a Shoot of righteousness to shoot up to David, And He has done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
| בַּיָּמִ֤ים הָהֵם֙ וּבָעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔יא אַצְמִ֥יחַ לְדָוִ֖ד צֶ֣מַח צְדָקָ֑ה וְעָשָׂ֛ה מִשְׁפָּ֥ט וּצְדָקָ֖ה בָּאָֽרֶץ׃ |
16 In those days Judah is saved, And Jerusalem dwells confidently, And this [is] what she is called: YHWH [is] Our Righteousness.”
| בַּיָּמִ֤ים הָהֵם֙ תִּוָּשַׁ֣ע יְהוּדָ֔ה וִירוּשָׁלַ֖͏ִם תִּשְׁכֹּ֣ון לָבֶ֑טַח וְזֶ֥ה אֲשֶׁר־יִקְרָא־לָ֖הּ יְהוָ֥ה ׀ צִדְקֵֽנוּ׃ ס |
17 For thus said YHWH: “A man sitting on the throne of the house of Israel [is] never cut off from David,
| כִּי־כֹ֖ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה לֹֽא־יִכָּרֵ֣ת לְדָוִ֔ד אִ֕ישׁ יֹשֵׁ֖ב עַל־כִּסֵּ֥א בֵֽית־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ |
18 And to the priests—the Levites, A man is not cut off from before My face, Causing a burnt-offering to ascend, And perfuming a present, and making sacrifice—all the days.”
| וְלַכֹּהֲנִים֙ הַלְוִיִּ֔ם לֹֽא־יִכָּרֵ֥ת אִ֖ישׁ מִלְּפָנָ֑י מַעֲלֶ֨ה עֹולָ֜ה וּמַקְטִ֥יר מִנְחָ֛ה וְעֹֽשֶׂה־זֶּ֖בַח כָּל־הַיָּמִֽים׃ ס |
19 And there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah, saying,
| וַֽיְהִי֙ דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה אֶֽל־יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ לֵאמֹֽור׃ |
20 “Thus said YHWH: If you can break My covenant with the day, And My covenant with the night, So that they are not daily and nightly in their season,
| כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה אִם־תָּפֵ֙רוּ֙ אֶת־בְּרִיתִ֣י הַיֹּ֔ום וְאֶת־בְּרִיתִ֖י הַלָּ֑יְלָה וּלְבִלְתִּ֛י הֱיֹ֥ות יֹֽומָם־וָלַ֖יְלָה בְּעִתָּֽם׃ |
21 My covenant is also broken with My servant David, So that he does not have a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
| גַּם־בְּרִיתִ֤י תֻפַר֙ אֶת־דָּוִ֣ד עַבְדִּ֔י מִהְיֹֽות־לֹ֥ו בֵ֖ן מֹלֵ֣ךְ עַל־כִּסְאֹ֑ו וְאֶת־הַלְוִיִּ֥ם הַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים מְשָׁרְתָֽי׃ |
22 As the host of the heavens is not numbered, Nor the sand of the sea measured, So I multiply the seed of My servant David, And My ministers the Levites.”
| אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹֽא־יִסָּפֵר֙ צְבָ֣א הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וְלֹ֥א יִמַּ֖ד חֹ֣ול הַיָּ֑ם כֵּ֣ן אַרְבֶּ֗ה אֶת־זֶ֙רַע֙ דָּוִ֣ד עַבְדִּ֔י וְאֶת־הַלְוִיִּ֖ם מְשָׁרְתֵ֥י אֹתִֽי׃ ס |
23 And there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah, saying,
| וַֽיְהִי֙ דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה אֶֽל־יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ לֵאמֹֽר׃ |
24 “Have you not considered what this people have spoken, saying, The two families on which YHWH fixed, He rejects them? And they despise My people, so that they are no longer a people before them!”
| הֲלֹ֣וא רָאִ֗יתָ מָֽה־הָעָ֤ם הַזֶּה֙ דִּבְּר֣וּ לֵאמֹ֔ר שְׁתֵּ֣י הַמִּשְׁפָּחֹ֗ות אֲשֶׁ֨ר בָּחַ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה בָּהֶ֖ם וַיִּמְאָסֵ֑ם וְאֶת־עַמִּי֙ יִנְאָצ֔וּן מִֽהְיֹ֥ות עֹ֖וד גֹּ֥וי לִפְנֵיהֶֽם׃ ס |
25 Thus said YHWH: “If My covenant [is] not with day and night, [And if] I have not appointed the statutes of the heavens and earth—
| כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה אִם־לֹ֥א בְרִיתִ֖י יֹומָ֣ם וָלָ֑יְלָה חֻקֹּ֛ות שָׁמַ֥יִם וָאָ֖רֶץ לֹא־שָֽׂמְתִּי׃ |
26 I also reject the seed of Jacob, and My servant David, From taking rulers from his seed For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I return their captivity, and have pitied them.”
| גַּם־זֶ֣רַע יַעֲקֹוב֩ וְדָוִ֨ד עַבְדִּ֜י אֶמְאַ֗ס מִקַּ֤חַת מִזַּרְעֹו֙ מֹֽשְׁלִ֔ים אֶל־זֶ֥רַע אַבְרָהָ֖ם יִשְׂחָ֣ק וְיַעֲקֹ֑ב כִּֽי־אָשׁוּב (אָשִׁ֥יב) אֶת־שְׁבוּתָ֖ם וְרִחַמְתִּֽים׃ ס |
