Isaiah 28
1 Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, To the fading flower, his glorious beauty, At the head of the rich valley of a people stupefied with wine.
Woe to! [the] crown of pride of [the] drunkards of Ephraim and a flower withering [the] beauty of splendor its which [is] on [the] head of a valley of fatness [those] struck down of wine.
2 Behold a strong, a mighty one from the Lord Like a storm of hail, like a destructive tempest, Like a flood of mighty, overflowing waters, With violence shall dash it to the ground.
There! a mighty [one] and a strong [one] [belongs] to [the] Lord like a storm of hail a tempest of destruction like a storm of water mighty overflowing he will thrust [it] down to the ground with a hand.
3 It shall be trodden under foot, The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim.
With feet they will be trampled [the] crown of pride of [the] drunkards of Ephraim.
4 And the fading flower, their glorious beauty, At the head of the rich valley, Shall be as the early fig before the time of harvest, Which whoso seeth plucketh immediately, And swalloweth as soon as it is in his hand.
And it will be a flower withering [the] beauty of splendor its which [is] on [the] head of a valley of fatness like an early fig before summer which he will see the [one who] sees it while still it [is] in hand his he will swallow it.
5 In that day shall Jehovah of hosts Be a glorious crown, and a beautiful diadem to the residue of his people;
In the day that he will become Yahweh of hosts a crown of beauty and a diadem of splendor for [the] remnant of people his.
6 A spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, And of strength to them that drive back the enemy to their gates.
And a spirit of justice for the [one who] sits on judgment and strength [those who] turn back battle [the] gate towards.
7 But even these stagger through wine, And reel through strong drink; The priest and the prophet stagger through strong drink; They are overpowered with wine; They stumble through strong drink; They reel in vision, They stagger in judgment.
And also these with wine they reeled and with strong drink they staggered priest and prophet they reeled with strong drink they were confused from wine they staggered from strong drink they reeled in the vision they tottered decision.
8 For all their tables are full of filthy vomit, So that there is no place clean.
For all [the] tables they are full vomit filth not room.
9 “Whom,” say they, “will he teach knowledge, And to whom will he impart instruction? To the weaned from the milk? To those just taken from the breast?
Whom? will he teach knowledge and whom? will he make understand [the] message [those] weaned from milk [ones] removed from breasts.
10 For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Command upon command, command upon command, A little here, and a little there.”
For command to [the] command command to [the] command line to [the] line line to [the] line a little there a little there.
11 Yea, with stammering lips and a strange tongue He shall indeed speak to this people;
For by stammerings of lip and by a tongue another he will speak to the people this.
12 He that said to them, “This is the way of rest, give rest to the weary; This is the way of safety”; But they would not hear.
Whom - he said to them this [is] the resting place give rest to the weary and this [is] the place of rest and not they were willing to listen.
13 Then shall the word of Jehovah be indeed to them “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Command upon command, command upon command, A little here, and a little there,” So that they shall go on, and fall backwards, and be broken, And be snared and caught.
And it will be to them [the] word of Yahweh command to [the] command command to [the] command line to [the] line line to [the] line a little there a little there so that they may go and they will stumble backwards and they will be broken and they will be ensnared and they will be captured.
14 Wherefore hear ye the word of Jehovah, Ye scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem!
Therefore hear [the] word of Yahweh O people of mockery O rulers of the people this who [are] in Jerusalem.
15 Since ye say, “We have entered into a covenant with death, And with the under-world have we made an agreement, The overflowing scourge, when it passeth through, shall not reach us; For we have made falsehood our refuge, And in deceit we have hidden ourselves.” (Sheol h7585)
For you have said we have made a covenant with death and with Sheol we have made an agreement (a scourge *Q(K)*) overflowing if (it will pass by *Q(K)*) not it will come to us for we have made falsehood refuge our and in deception we have hidden ourselves. (Sheol h7585)
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I have laid in Zion as a foundation a stone, A tried stone, a precious corner-stone, a sure foundation; He that trusteth shall not flee away.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I he has laid in Zion a stone a stone of testing a corner of preciousness of a foundation founded the [one who] trusts not he will make haste.
17 I will make justice a line, And righteousness a plummet, And the hail shall sweep away the refuge of falsehood, And the waters shall overwhelm its hiding-place;
And I will make justice a measuring-line and righteousness a leveling tool and it will sweep away hail [the] refuge of falsehood and [the] shelter waters they will overflow.
18 And your covenant with death shall be broken, And your agreement with the under-world shall not stand; When the overflowing scourge shall pass through, By it shall ye be beaten down. (Sheol h7585)
And it will be annulled covenant your with death and agreement your with Sheol not it will stand a scourge overflowing if it will pass by and you will become for it a trampling place. (Sheol h7585)
19 As often as it passeth through, it shall bear you away; For every morning shall it pass through, By day and by night; Even to hear the rumor of it shall be terrible.
As often as passes by it it will take you for in the morning in the morning it will pass by in the day and in the night and it will be only terror to understand [the] message.
20 Yea, the bed is too short for one to stretch himself on it, And the covering too narrow for one to wrap himself in it.
For it is [too] short the bed for stretching oneself and the blanket it is narrow when wraps oneself up.
21 For Jehovah will rise up, as in mount Perazim; He will be moved with anger, as in the valley of Gibeon, To perform his act, his strange act, And to execute his work, his strange work.
For like [the] mountain of Perazim he will arise Yahweh like a valley in Gibeon he will rage to do deed his [is] strange deed his and to work work his [is] alien work his.
22 Now, therefore, be ye no longer scoffers, Lest your bands become stronger; For destruction and punishment have been revealed to me From Jehovah of hosts concerning the whole land!
And therefore may not you show yourself a mocker lest they should become strong fetters your for complete destruction and [what] has been decided I have heard from with [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts on all the land.
23 Give ear, and listen to my voice, Attend, and hearken to my words!
Give ear and hear voice my pay attention and hear utterance my.
24 Is the ploughman always ploughing in order to sow? Is he always opening and harrowing his field?
¿ All the day does he plow the plowman to sow does he loosen? and he may harrow? land his.
25 When he hath made the face thereof even, Doth he not then scatter the dill, and cast abroad the cumin, And sow the wheat in rows, And the barley in its appointed place, And the spelt in his border?
¿ Not if he has leveled surface its and does he scatter black cumin and cumin does he sprinkle? and does he put? wheat a row and barley an appointed [place] and spelt territory its.
26 Thus his God rightly instructeth him, And giveth him knowledge.
And he instructs him to judgment God his he teaches him.
27 The dill is not beaten out with the thrashing-sledge, Nor is the wheel of the wain rolled over the cumin; But the dill is beaten out with a staff, And the cumin with a rod.
That not with threshing sledge it is threshed black cumin and a wheel of a cart over cumin it is turned for with staff it is beaten out black cumin and cumin with rod.
28 Bread-corn is beaten out, Yet doth not the husbandman thrash it without limit. He driveth over it the wheels of the wain, And the horses, yet doth he not utterly crush it.
Bread it is crushed for not to perpetuity certainly anyone threshes it and he sets in motion [the] wheel of cart his and horses his not he crushes it.
29 This also proceedeth from Jehovah of hosts; He is wonderful in counsel, Excellent in wisdom.
Also this from with Yahweh of hosts it has gone out he has made wonderful counsel he has made great sound wisdom.
