< Ezekiel 16 >

1 Again the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהֹוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹֽר׃
2 "Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations;
בֶּן־אָדָם הוֹדַע אֶת־יְרוּשָׁלַ͏ִם אֶת־תּוֹעֲבֹתֶֽיהָ׃
3 and say, 'Thus says Jehovah to Jerusalem: Your birth and your birth is of the land of the Canaanite; the Amorite was your father, and your mother was a Hethite.
וְאָמַרְתָּ כֹּה־אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה לִירוּשָׁלַ͏ִם מְכֹרֹתַיִךְ וּמֹלְדֹתַיִךְ מֵאֶרֶץ הַֽכְּנַעֲנִי אָבִיךְ הָאֱמֹרִי וְאִמֵּךְ חִתִּֽית׃
4 As for your birth, in the day you were born your navel was not cut, neither were you washed in water to cleanse you; you weren't salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
וּמוֹלְדוֹתַיִךְ בְּיוֹם הוּלֶּדֶת אוֹתָךְ לֹא־כָרַּת שָׁרֵּךְ וּבְמַיִם לֹא־רֻחַצְתְּ לְמִשְׁעִי וְהׇמְלֵחַ לֹא הֻמְלַחַתְּ וְהׇחְתֵּל לֹא חֻתָּֽלְתְּ׃
5 No eye pitied you, to do any of these things to you, to have compassion on you; but you were cast out in the open field, for that your person was abhorred, in the day that you were born.
לֹא־חָסָה עָלַיִךְ עַיִן לַעֲשׂוֹת לָךְ אַחַת מֵאֵלֶּה לְחֻמְלָה עָלָיִךְ וַֽתֻּשְׁלְכִי אֶל־פְּנֵי הַשָּׂדֶה בְּגֹעַל נַפְשֵׁךְ בְּיוֹם הֻלֶּדֶת אֹתָֽךְ׃
6 "'And I passed by you and saw you wallowing in your blood, and I said to you in your blood: 'Live.'
וָאֶעֱבֹר עָלַיִךְ וָֽאֶרְאֵךְ מִתְבּוֹסֶסֶת בְּדָמָיִךְ וָאֹמַר לָךְ בְּדָמַיִךְ חֲיִי וָאֹמַר לָךְ בְּדָמַיִךְ חֲיִֽי׃
7 I caused you to multiply as that which grows in the field, and you increased and grew great, and you attained to excellent ornament; your breasts were fashioned, and your hair was grown; yet you were naked and bare.
רְבָבָה כְּצֶמַח הַשָּׂדֶה נְתַתִּיךְ וַתִּרְבִּי וַֽתִּגְדְּלִי וַתָּבֹאִי בַּעֲדִי עֲדָיִים שָׁדַיִם נָכֹנוּ וּשְׂעָרֵךְ צִמֵּחַ וְאַתְּ עֵרֹם וְעֶרְיָֽה׃
8 "'Now when I passed by you, and looked at you, look, your time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over you, and covered your nakedness: yes, I swore to you, and entered into a covenant with you,' says Jehovah, 'and you became mine.
וָאֶעֱבֹר עָלַיִךְ וָאֶרְאֵךְ וְהִנֵּה עִתֵּךְ עֵת דֹּדִים וָאֶפְרֹשׂ כְּנָפִי עָלַיִךְ וָאֲכַסֶּה עֶרְוָתֵךְ וָאֶשָּׁבַֽע לָךְ וָאָבוֹא בִבְרִית אֹתָךְ נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה וַתִּֽהְיִי־לִֽי׃
9 "'Then I washed you with water; yes, I thoroughly washed away your blood from you, and I anointed you with oil.
וָאֶרְחָצֵךְ בַּמַּיִם וָאֶשְׁטֹף דָּמַיִךְ מֵעָלָיִךְ וָאֲסֻכֵךְ בַּשָּֽׁמֶן׃
10 I clothed you also with embroidered work, and shod you with sealskin, and I dressed you about with fine linen, and covered you with silk.
וָאַלְבִּישֵׁךְ רִקְמָה וָאֶנְעֲלֵךְ תָּחַשׁ וָאֶחְבְּשֵׁךְ בַּשֵּׁשׁ וַאֲכַסֵּךְ מֶֽשִׁי׃
11 I decked you with ornaments, and I put bracelets on your hands, and a chain on your neck.
וָאֶעְדֵּךְ עֶדִי וָאֶתְּנָה צְמִידִים עַל־יָדַיִךְ וְרָבִיד עַל־גְּרוֹנֵֽךְ׃
12 I put a ring on your nose, and earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head.
וָאֶתֵּֽן־נֶזֶם עַל־אַפֵּךְ וַֽעֲגִילִים עַל־אׇזְנָיִךְ וַעֲטֶרֶת תִּפְאֶרֶת בְּרֹאשֵֽׁךְ׃
13 Thus you were decked with gold and silver; and your clothing was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work; you ate fine flour, and honey, and oil; and you were exceeding beautiful, and you prospered to royal estate.
וַתַּעְדִּי זָהָב וָכֶסֶף וּמַלְבּוּשֵׁךְ (ששי) [שֵׁשׁ] וָמֶשִׁי וְרִקְמָה סֹלֶת וּדְבַשׁ וָשֶׁמֶן (אכלתי) [אָכָלְתְּ] וַתִּיפִי בִּמְאֹד מְאֹד וַֽתִּצְלְחִי לִמְלוּכָֽה׃
14 Your renown went forth among the nations for your beauty; for it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put on you,' says Jehovah.
וַיֵּצֵא לָךְ שֵׁם בַּגּוֹיִם בְּיׇפְיֵךְ כִּי ׀ כָּלִיל הוּא בַּהֲדָרִי אֲשֶׁר־שַׂמְתִּי עָלַיִךְ נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִֽה׃
15 "'But you trusted in your beauty, and played the prostitute because of your renown, and poured out your prostitution on everyone who passed by; his it was.
וַתִּבְטְחִי בְיׇפְיֵךְ וַתִּזְנִי עַל־שְׁמֵךְ וַתִּשְׁפְּכִי אֶת־תַּזְנוּתַיִךְ עַל־כׇּל־עוֹבֵר לוֹ־יֶֽהִי׃
16 You took of your garments, and made for yourselves high places decked with various colors, and played the prostitute on them: the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so.
וַתִּקְחִי מִבְּגָדַיִךְ וַתַּֽעֲשִׂי־לָךְ בָּמוֹת טְלֻאוֹת וַתִּזְנִי עֲלֵיהֶם לֹא בָאוֹת וְלֹא יִהְיֶֽה׃
17 You also took your beautiful jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given you, and made for yourself images of men, and played the prostitute with them;
וַתִּקְחִי כְּלֵי תִפְאַרְתֵּךְ מִזְּהָבִי וּמִכַּסְפִּי אֲשֶׁר נָתַתִּי לָךְ וַתַּעֲשִׂי־לָךְ צַלְמֵי זָכָר וַתִּזְנִי־בָֽם׃
18 and you took your embroidered garments, and covered them, and set my oil and my incense before them.
וַתִּקְחִי אֶת־בִּגְדֵי רִקְמָתֵךְ וַתְּכַסִּים וְשַׁמְנִי וּקְטׇרְתִּי (נתתי) [נָתַתְּ] לִפְנֵיהֶֽם׃
19 My bread also which I gave you, fine flour, and oil, and honey, with which I fed you, you even set it before them for a pleasant aroma; and thus it was,' says Jehovah.
וְלַחְמִי אֲשֶׁר־נָתַתִּי לָךְ סֹלֶת וָשֶׁמֶן וּדְבַשׁ הֶאֱכַלְתִּיךְ וּנְתַתִּיהוּ לִפְנֵיהֶם לְרֵיחַ נִיחֹחַ וַיֶּהִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִֽה׃
20 "'Moreover you have taken your sons and your daughters, whom you have borne to me, and you have sacrificed these to them to be devoured. Was your prostitution a small matter,
וַתִּקְחִי אֶת־בָּנַיִךְ וְאֶת־בְּנוֹתַיִךְ אֲשֶׁר יָלַדְתְּ לִי וַתִּזְבָּחִים לָהֶם לֶאֱכוֹל הַמְעַט (מתזנותך) [מִתַּזְנוּתָֽיִךְ]׃
21 that you have slain my children, and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through the fire to them?
וַֽתִּשְׁחֲטִי אֶת־בָּנָי וַֽתִּתְּנִים בְּהַעֲבִיר אוֹתָם לָהֶֽם׃
22 In all your abominations and your prostitution you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, and were wallowing in your blood.
וְאֵת כׇּל־תּוֹעֲבֹתַיִךְ וְתַזְנֻתַיִךְ לֹא (זכרתי) [זָכַרְתְּ] אֶת־יְמֵי נְעוּרָיִךְ בִּֽהְיוֹתֵךְ עֵירֹם וְעֶרְיָה מִתְבּוֹסֶסֶת בְּדָמֵךְ הָיִֽית׃
23 "'It has happened after all your wickedness, ("Woe, woe to you." says Jehovah),
וַיְהִי אַחֲרֵי כׇּל־רָעָתֵךְ אוֹי אוֹי לָךְ נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִֽה׃
24 that you have built for yourselves a vaulted place, and have made yourselves a lofty place in every street.
וַתִּבְנִי־לָךְ גָּב וַתַּעֲשִׂי־לָךְ רָמָה בְּכׇל־רְחֽוֹב׃
25 You have built your lofty place at the head of every way, and have made your beauty an abomination, and have opened your feet to everyone who passed by, and multiplied your prostitution.
אֶל־כׇּל־רֹאשׁ דֶּרֶךְ בָּנִית רָמָתֵךְ וַתְּתַֽעֲבִי אֶת־יׇפְיֵךְ וַתְּפַשְּׂקִי אֶת־רַגְלַיִךְ לְכׇל־עוֹבֵר וַתַּרְבִּי אֶת־[תַּזְנוּתָֽיִךְ] (תזנותך)׃
26 You have also committed sexual immorality with the Egyptians, your neighbors, great of flesh; and have multiplied your prostitution, to provoke me to anger.
וַתִּזְנִי אֶל־בְּנֵי־מִצְרַיִם שְׁכֵנַיִךְ גִּדְלֵי בָשָׂר וַתַּרְבִּי אֶת־תַּזְנֻתֵךְ לְהַכְעִיסֵֽנִי׃
27 See therefore, I have stretched out my hand over you, and have diminished your ordinary food, and delivered you to the will of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your lewd way.
וְהִנֵּה נָטִיתִי יָדִי עָלַיִךְ וָאֶגְרַע חֻקֵּךְ וָאֶתְּנֵךְ בְּנֶפֶשׁ שֹׂנְאוֹתַיִךְ בְּנוֹת פְּלִשְׁתִּים הַנִּכְלָמוֹת מִדַּרְכֵּךְ זִמָּֽה׃
28 You have played the prostitute also with the Assyrians, because you were insatiable; yes, you have played the prostitute with them, and yet you weren't satisfied.
וַתִּזְנִי אֶל־בְּנֵי אַשּׁוּר מִבִּלְתִּי שׇׂבְעָתֵךְ וַתִּזְנִים וְגַם לֹא שָׂבָֽעַתְּ׃
29 You have moreover multiplied your prostitution to the land of merchants, to Chaldea; and yet you weren't satisfied with this.
וַתַּרְבִּי אֶת־תַּזְנוּתֵךְ אֶל־אֶרֶץ כְּנַעַן כַּשְׂדִּימָה וְגַם־בְּזֹאת לֹא שָׂבָֽעַתְּ׃
30 "'How weak is your heart, says Jehovah, since you do all these things, the work of an impudent prostitute;
מָה אֲמֻלָה לִבָּתֵךְ נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה בַּֽעֲשׂוֹתֵךְ אֶת־כׇּל־אֵלֶּה מַעֲשֵׂה אִשָּֽׁה־זוֹנָה שַׁלָּֽטֶת׃
31 in that you build your vaulted place at the head of every way, and make your lofty place in every street, and have not been as a prostitute, in that you scorn pay.
בִּבְנוֹתַיִךְ גַּבֵּךְ בְּרֹאשׁ כׇּל־דֶּרֶךְ וְרָמָתֵךְ (עשיתי) [עָשִׂית] בְּכׇל־רְחוֹב וְלֹא־[הָיִית] (הייתי) כַּזּוֹנָה לְקַלֵּס אֶתְנָֽן׃
32 "'A wife who commits adultery, who takes strangers instead of her husband.
הָאִשָּׁה הַמְּנָאָפֶת תַּחַת אִישָׁהּ תִּקַּח אֶת־זָרִֽים׃
33 They give gifts to all prostitutes; but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to you on every side for your prostitution.
לְכׇל־זֹנוֹת יִתְּנוּ־נֵדֶה וְאַתְּ נָתַתְּ אֶת־נְדָנַיִךְ לְכׇל־מְאַֽהֲבַיִךְ וַתִּשְׁחֳדִי אוֹתָם לָבוֹא אֵלַיִךְ מִסָּבִיב בְּתַזְנוּתָֽיִךְ׃
34 You are different from other women in your prostitution, in that no one follows you to play the prostitute; and whereas you give hire, and no hire is given to you, therefore you are different.'
וַיְהִי־בָךְ הֵפֶךְ מִן־הַנָּשִׁים בְּתַזְנוּתַיִךְ וְאַחֲרַיִךְ לֹא זוּנָּה וּבְתִתֵּךְ אֶתְנָן וְאֶתְנַן לֹא נִתַּן־לָךְ וַתְּהִי לְהֶֽפֶךְ׃
35 "Therefore, prostitute, hear the word of Jehovah:
לָכֵן זוֹנָה שִׁמְעִי דְּבַר־יְהֹוָֽה׃
36 Thus says Jehovah, 'Because your filthiness was poured out, and your nakedness uncovered through your prostitution with your lovers; and because of all the idols of your abominations, and for the blood of your children, that you gave to them;
כֹּה־אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה יַעַן הִשָּׁפֵךְ נְחֻשְׁתֵּךְ וַתִּגָּלֶה עֶרְוָתֵךְ בְּתַזְנוּתַיִךְ עַל־מְאַֽהֲבָיִךְ וְעַל כׇּל־גִּלּוּלֵי תוֹעֲבוֹתַיִךְ וְכִדְמֵי בָנַיִךְ אֲשֶׁר נָתַתְּ לָהֶֽם׃
37 therefore see, I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have taken pleasure, and all those who you have loved, with all those who you have hated; I will even gather them against you on every side, and will uncover your nakedness to them, that they may see all your nakedness.
לָכֵן הִנְנִי מְקַבֵּץ אֶת־כׇּל־מְאַהֲבַיִךְ אֲשֶׁר עָרַבְתְּ עֲלֵיהֶם וְאֵת כׇּל־אֲשֶׁר אָהַבְתְּ עַל כׇּל־אֲשֶׁר שָׂנֵאת וְקִבַּצְתִּי אֹתָם עָלַיִךְ מִסָּבִיב וְגִלֵּיתִי עֶרְוָתֵךְ אֲלֵהֶם וְרָאוּ אֶת־כׇּל־עֶרְוָתֵֽךְ׃
38 I will judge you, as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will bring on you the blood of wrath and jealousy.
וּשְׁפַטְתִּיךְ מִשְׁפְּטֵי נֹאֲפוֹת וְשֹׁפְכֹת דָּם וּנְתַתִּיךְ דַּם חֵמָה וְקִנְאָֽה׃
39 I will also give you into their hand, and they shall throw down your vaulted place, and break down your lofty places; and they shall strip you of your clothes, and take your beautiful jewels; and they shall leave you naked and bare.
וְנָתַתִּי אֹתָךְ בְּיָדָם וְהָרְסוּ גַבֵּךְ וְנִתְּצוּ רָמֹתַיִךְ וְהִפְשִׁיטוּ אוֹתָךְ בְּגָדַיִךְ וְלָקְחוּ כְּלֵי תִפְאַרְתֵּךְ וְהִנִּיחוּךְ עֵירֹם וְעֶרְיָֽה׃
40 They shall also bring up a company against you, and they shall stone you with stones, and thrust you through with their swords.
וְהֶעֱלוּ עָלַיִךְ קָהָל וְרָגְמוּ אוֹתָךְ בָּאָבֶן וּבִתְּקוּךְ בְּחַרְבוֹתָֽם׃
41 They shall burn your houses with fire, and execute judgments on you in the sight of many women; and I will cause you to cease from playing the prostitute, and you shall also give no hire any more.
וְשָׂרְפוּ בָתַּיִךְ בָּאֵשׁ וְעָשׂוּ־בָךְ שְׁפָטִים לְעֵינֵי נָשִׁים רַבּוֹת וְהִשְׁבַּתִּיךְ מִזּוֹנָה וְגַם־אֶתְנַן לֹא תִתְּנִי־עֽוֹד׃
42 So will I cause my wrath toward you to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from you, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
וַהֲנִחֹתִי חֲמָתִי בָּךְ וְסָרָה קִנְאָתִי מִמֵּךְ וְשָׁקַטְתִּי וְלֹא אֶכְעַס עֽוֹד׃
43 "'Because you have not remembered the days of your youth, but have raged against me in all these things; therefore, look, I also will bring your way on your head,' says Jehovah: 'and you shall not commit this lewdness with all your abominations.
יַעַן אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא־[זָכַרְתְּ] (זכרתי) אֶת־יְמֵי נְעוּרַיִךְ וַתִּרְגְּזִי־לִי בְּכׇל־אֵלֶּה וְגַם־אֲנִי הֵא דַּרְכֵּךְ ׀ בְּרֹאשׁ נָתַתִּי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה וְלֹא (עשיתי) [עָשִׂית] אֶת־הַזִּמָּה עַל כׇּל־תּוֹעֲבֹתָֽיִךְ׃
44 "'Look, everyone who uses proverbs shall use this proverb against you, saying, "As is the mother, so is her daughter."
הִנֵּה כׇּל־הַמֹּשֵׁל עָלַיִךְ יִמְשֹׁל לֵאמֹר כְּאִמָּהֿ בִּתָּֽהּ׃
45 You are the daughter of your mother, who loathes her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hethite, and your father an Amorite.
בַּת־אִמֵּךְ אַתְּ גֹּעֶלֶת אִישָׁהּ וּבָנֶיהָ וַאֲחוֹת אֲחוֹתֵךְ אַתְּ אֲשֶׁר גָּֽעֲלוּ אַנְשֵׁיהֶן וּבְנֵיהֶן אִמְּכֶן חִתִּית וַאֲבִיכֶן אֱמֹרִֽי׃
46 Your elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at your left hand, she and her daughters; and your younger sister, who dwells at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
וַאֲחוֹתֵךְ הַגְּדוֹלָה שֹׁמְרוֹן הִיא וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ הַיּוֹשֶׁבֶת עַל־שְׂמֹאולֵךְ וַאֲחוֹתֵךְ הַקְּטַנָּה מִמֵּךְ הַיּוֹשֶׁבֶת מִֽימִינֵךְ סְדֹם וּבְנוֹתֶֽיהָ׃
47 Yet have you not walked in their ways, nor done after their abominations; but, as if that were a very little thing, you were more corrupt than they in all your ways.
וְלֹא בְדַרְכֵיהֶן הָלַכְתְּ וּכְתוֹעֲבוֹתֵיהֶן (עשיתי) [עָשִׂית] כִּמְעַט קָט וַתַּשְׁחִתִי מֵהֵן בְּכׇל־דְּרָכָֽיִךְ׃
48 As I live,' says Jehovah, 'Sodom your sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as you have done, you and your daughters.
חַי־אָנִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה אִם־עָֽשְׂתָה סְדֹם אֲחוֹתֵךְ הִיא וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂית אַתְּ וּבְנוֹתָֽיִךְ׃
49 "'Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
הִנֵּה־זֶה הָיָה עֲוֺן סְדֹם אֲחוֹתֵךְ גָּאוֹן שִׂבְעַת־לֶחֶם וְשַׁלְוַת הַשְׁקֵט הָיָה לָהּ וְלִבְנוֹתֶיהָ וְיַד־עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן לֹא הֶחֱזִֽיקָה׃
50 They were haughty, and committed abomination before me. So I took them away, as you have seen.
וַֽתִּגְבְּהֶינָה וַתַּֽעֲשֶׂינָה תוֹעֵבָה לְפָנָי וָאָסִיר אֶתְהֶן כַּאֲשֶׁר רָאִֽיתִי׃
51 Neither has Samaria committed half of your sins; but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and have justified your sisters by all your abominations which you have done.
וְשֹׁמְרוֹן כַּחֲצִי חַטֹּאתַיִךְ לֹא חָטָאָה וַתַּרְבִּי אֶת־תּוֹעֲבוֹתַיִךְ מֵהֵנָּה וַתְּצַדְּקִי אֶת־[אֲחוֹתַיִךְ] (אחותך) בְּכׇל־תּוֹעֲבֹתַיִךְ אֲשֶׁר (עשיתי) [עָשִֽׂית]׃
52 You also, bear you your own shame, in that you have given judgment for your sisters; through your sins that you have committed more abominable than they, they are more righteous that you: yes, be also confounded, and bear your shame, in that you have justified your sisters.
גַּם־אַתְּ ׀ שְׂאִי כְלִמָּתֵךְ אֲשֶׁר פִּלַּלְתְּ לַאֲחוֹתֵךְ בְּחַטֹּאתַיִךְ אֲשֶׁר־הִתְעַבְתְּ מֵהֵן תִּצְדַּקְנָה מִמֵּךְ וְגַם־אַתְּ בּוֹשִׁי וּשְׂאִי כְלִמָּתֵךְ בְּצַדֶּקְתֵּךְ אַחְיוֹתֵֽךְ׃
53 "'I will turn again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of your captives in their midst;
וְשַׁבְתִּי אֶת־שְׁבִיתְהֶן אֶת־[שְׁבוּת] (שבית) סְדֹם וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ וְאֶת־[שְׁבוּת] (שבית) שֹׁמְרוֹן וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ (ושבית) [וּשְׁבוּת] שְׁבִיתַיִךְ בְּתוֹכָֽהְנָה׃
54 that you may bear your own shame, and may be ashamed because of all that you have done, in that you are a comfort to them.
לְמַעַן תִּשְׂאִי כְלִמָּתֵךְ וְנִכְלַמְתְּ מִכֹּל אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂית בְּנַחֲמֵךְ אֹתָֽן׃
55 Your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate; and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate; and you and your daughters shall return to your former estate.
וַאֲחוֹתַיִךְ סְדֹם וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ תָּשֹׁבְןָ לְקַדְמָתָן וְשֹֽׁמְרוֹן וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ תָּשֹׁבְןָ לְקַדְמָתָן וְאַתְּ וּבְנוֹתַיִךְ תְּשֻׁבֶינָה לְקַדְמַתְכֶֽן׃
56 For your sister Sodom was not mentioned by your mouth in the day of your pride,
וְלוֹא הָֽיְתָה סְדֹם אֲחוֹתֵךְ לִשְׁמוּעָה בְּפִיךְ בְּיוֹם גְּאוֹנָֽיִךְ׃
57 before your wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Aram, and of all who are around her, the daughters of the Philistines, who do despite to you all around.
בְּטֶרֶם תִּגָּלֶה רָעָתֵךְ כְּמוֹ עֵת חֶרְפַּת בְּנוֹת־אֲרָם וְכׇל־סְבִיבוֹתֶיהָ בְּנוֹת פְּלִשְׁתִּים הַשָּׁאטוֹת אוֹתָךְ מִסָּבִֽיב׃
58 You have borne your lewdness and your abominations, says Jehovah.'
אֶת־זִמָּתֵךְ וְאֶת־תּוֹעֲבוֹתַיִךְ אַתְּ נְשָׂאתִים נְאֻם יְהֹוָֽה׃
59 "For thus says Jehovah: 'I will also deal with you as you have done, who have despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
כִּי כֹה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה (ועשית) [וְעָשִׂיתִי] אוֹתָךְ כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂית אֲשֶׁר־בָּזִית אָלָה לְהָפֵר בְּרִֽית׃
60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish to you an everlasting covenant.
וְזָכַרְתִּי אֲנִי אֶת־בְּרִיתִי אוֹתָךְ בִּימֵי נְעוּרָיִךְ וַהֲקִימוֹתִי לָךְ בְּרִית עוֹלָֽם׃
61 Then you shall remember your ways, and be ashamed, when you receive your older and your younger sisters; and I will give them to you as daughters, but not by your covenant.
וְזָכַרְתְּ אֶת־דְּרָכַיִךְ וְנִכְלַמְתְּ בְּקַחְתֵּךְ אֶת־אֲחוֹתַיִךְ הַגְּדֹלוֹת מִמֵּךְ אֶל־הַקְּטַנּוֹת מִמֵּךְ וְנָתַתִּי אֶתְהֶן לָךְ לְבָנוֹת וְלֹא מִבְּרִיתֵֽךְ׃
62 I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall know that I am Jehovah;
וַהֲקִימֹתִי אֲנִי אֶת־בְּרִיתִי אִתָּךְ וְיָדַעַתְּ כִּֽי־אֲנִי יְהֹוָֽה׃
63 that you may remember, and be confounded, and never open your mouth any more, because of your shame, when I have forgiven you all that you have done, says Jehovah.'"
לְמַעַן תִּזְכְּרִי וָבֹשְׁתְּ וְלֹא יִֽהְיֶה־לָּךְ עוֹד פִּתְחוֹן פֶּה מִפְּנֵי כְּלִמָּתֵךְ בְּכַפְּרִי־לָךְ לְכׇל־אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂית נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִֽה׃
