Isaiah 3
1 For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah stay and staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water;
| כִּי֩ הִנֵּ֨ה הָאָדֹ֜ון יְהוָ֣ה צְבָאֹ֗ות מֵסִ֤יר מִירוּשָׁלַ֙͏ִם֙ וּמִ֣יהוּדָ֔ה מַשְׁעֵ֖ן וּמַשְׁעֵנָ֑ה כֹּ֚ל מִשְׁעַן־לֶ֔חֶם וְכֹ֖ל מִשְׁעַן־מָֽיִם׃ |
2 the mighty man, and the man of war; the judge, and the prophet, and the diviner, and the ancient;
| גִּבֹּ֖ור וְאִ֣ישׁ מִלְחָמָ֑ה שֹׁופֵ֥ט וְנָבִ֖יא וְקֹסֵ֥ם וְזָקֵֽן׃ |
3 the captain of fifty, and the honourable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the skilful enchanter.
| שַׂר־חֲמִשִּׁ֖ים וּנְשׂ֣וּא פָנִ֑ים וְיֹועֵ֛ץ וַחֲכַ֥ם חֲרָשִׁ֖ים וּנְבֹ֥ון לָֽחַשׁ׃ |
4 And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
| וְנָתַתִּ֥י נְעָרִ֖ים שָׂרֵיהֶ֑ם וְתַעֲלוּלִ֖ים יִמְשְׁלוּ־בָֽם׃ |
5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable.
| וְנִגַּ֣שׂ הָעָ֔ם אִ֥ישׁ בְּאִ֖ישׁ וְאִ֣ישׁ בְּרֵעֵ֑הוּ יִרְהֲב֗וּ הַנַּ֙עַר֙ בַּזָּקֵ֔ן וְהַנִּקְלֶ֖ה בַּנִּכְבָּֽד׃ |
6 When a man shall take hold of his brother in the house of his father, [saying], Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand:
| כִּֽי־יִתְפֹּ֨שׂ אִ֤ישׁ בְּאָחִיו֙ בֵּ֣ית אָבִ֔יו שִׂמְלָ֣ה לְכָ֔ה קָצִ֖ין תִּֽהְיֶה־לָּ֑נוּ וְהַמַּכְשֵׁלָ֥ה הַזֹּ֖את תַּ֥חַת יָדֶֽךָ׃ |
7 in that day shall he lift up [his voice], saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: ye shall not make me ruler of the people.
| יִשָּׂא֩ בַיֹּ֨ום הַה֤וּא ׀ לֵאמֹר֙ לֹא־אֶהְיֶ֣ה חֹבֵ֔שׁ וּבְבֵיתִ֕י אֵ֥ין לֶ֖חֶם וְאֵ֣ין שִׂמְלָ֑ה לֹ֥א תְשִׂימֻ֖נִי קְצִ֥ין עָֽם׃ |
8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
| כִּ֤י כָשְׁלָה֙ יְר֣וּשָׁלַ֔͏ִם וִיהוּדָ֖ה נָפָ֑ל כִּֽי־לְשֹׁונָ֤ם וּמַֽעַלְלֵיהֶם֙ אֶל־יְהוָ֔ה לַמְרֹ֖ות עֵנֵ֥י כְבֹודֹֽו׃ |
9 The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
| הַכָּרַ֤ת פְּנֵיהֶם֙ עָ֣נְתָה בָּ֔ם וְחַטָּאתָ֛ם כִּסְדֹ֥ם הִגִּ֖ידוּ לֹ֣א כִחֵ֑דוּ אֹ֣וי לְנַפְשָׁ֔ם כִּֽי־גָמְל֥וּ לָהֶ֖ם רָעָֽה׃ |
10 Say ye of the righteous, that [it shall be] well [with him]: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
| אִמְר֥וּ צַדִּ֖יק כִּי־טֹ֑וב כִּֽי־פְרִ֥י מַעַלְלֵיהֶ֖ם יֹאכֵֽלוּ׃ |
11 Woe unto the wicked! [it shall be] ill [with him]: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
| אֹ֖וי לְרָשָׁ֣ע רָ֑ע כִּֽי־גְמ֥וּל יָדָ֖יו יֵעָ֥שֶׂה לֹּֽו׃ |
12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
| עַמִּי֙ נֹגְשָׂ֣יו מְעֹולֵ֔ל וְנָשִׁ֖ים מָ֣שְׁלוּ בֹ֑ו עַמִּי֙ מְאַשְּׁרֶ֣יךָ מַתְעִ֔ים וְדֶ֥רֶךְ אֹֽרְחֹתֶ֖יךָ בִּלֵּֽעוּ׃ ס |
13 The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the peoples.
| נִצָּ֥ב לָרִ֖יב יְהוָ֑ה וְעֹמֵ֖ד לָדִ֥ין עַמִּֽים׃ |
14 The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and the princes thereof: It is ye that have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses:
| יְהוָה֙ בְּמִשְׁפָּ֣ט יָבֹ֔וא עִם־זִקְנֵ֥י עַמֹּ֖ו וְשָׂרָ֑יו וְאַתֶּם֙ בִּֽעַרְתֶּ֣ם הַכֶּ֔רֶם גְּזֵלַ֥ת הֶֽעָנִ֖י בְּבָתֵּיכֶֽם׃ |
15 what mean ye that ye crush my people, and grind the face of the poor? saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
| מַלָּכֶם (מַּה־ לָּכֶם֙) תְּדַכְּא֣וּ עַמִּ֔י וּפְנֵ֥י עֲנִיִּ֖ים תִּטְחָ֑נוּ נְאֻם־אֲדֹנָ֥י יְהוִ֖ה צְבָאֹֽות׃ ס |
16 Moreover the LORD said, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
| וַיֹּ֣אמֶר יְהוָ֗ה יַ֚עַן כִּ֤י גָֽבְהוּ֙ בְּנֹ֣ות צִיֹּ֔ון וַתֵּלַ֙כְנָה֙ נְטוֹּות (נְטוּיֹ֣ות) גָּרֹ֔ון וּֽמְשַׂקְּרֹ֖ות עֵינָ֑יִם הָלֹ֤וךְ וְטָפֹף֙ תֵּלַ֔כְנָה וּבְרַגְלֵיהֶ֖ם תְּעַכַּֽסְנָה׃ |
17 therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will lay bare their secret parts.
| וְשִׂפַּ֣ח אֲדֹנָ֔י קָדְקֹ֖ד בְּנֹ֣ות צִיֹּ֑ון וַיהוָ֖ה פָּתְהֵ֥ן יְעָרֶֽה׃ ס |
18 In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their anklets, and the cauls, and the crescents;
| בַּיֹּ֨ום הַה֜וּא יָסִ֣יר אֲדֹנָ֗י אֵ֣ת תִּפְאֶ֧רֶת הָעֲכָסִ֛ים וְהַשְּׁבִיסִ֖ים וְהַשַּׂהֲרֹנִֽים׃ |
19 the pendants, and the bracelets, and the mufflers;
| הַנְּטִיפֹ֥ות וְהַשֵּׁירֹ֖ות וְהָֽרְעָלֹֽות׃ |
20 the headtires, and the ankle chains, and the sashes, and the perfume boxes, and the amulets;
| הַפְּאֵרִ֤ים וְהַצְּעָדֹות֙ וְהַקִּשֻּׁרִ֔ים וּבָתֵּ֥י הַנֶּ֖פֶשׁ וְהַלְּחָשִֽׁים׃ |
21 the rings, and the nose jewels;
| הַטַּבָּעֹ֖ות וְנִזְמֵ֥י הָאָֽף׃ |
22 the festival robes, and the mantles, and the shawls, and the satchels;
| הַמַּֽחֲלָצֹות֙ וְהַמַּ֣עֲטָפֹ֔ות וְהַמִּטְפָּחֹ֖ות וְהָחֲרִיטִֽים׃ |
23 the hand mirrors, and the fine linen, and the turbans, and the veils.
| וְהַגִּלְיֹנִים֙ וְהַסְּדִינִ֔ים וְהַצְּנִיפֹ֖ות וְהָרְדִידִֽים׃ |
24 And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet spices there shall be rottenness; and instead of a girdle a rope; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth: branding instead of beauty.
| וְהָיָה֩ תַ֨חַת בֹּ֜שֶׂם מַ֣ק יִֽהְיֶ֗ה וְתַ֨חַת חֲגֹורָ֤ה נִקְפָּה֙ וְתַ֨חַת מַעֲשֶׂ֤ה מִקְשֶׁה֙ קָרְחָ֔ה וְתַ֥חַת פְּתִיגִ֖יל מַחֲגֹ֣רֶת שָׂ֑ק כִּי־תַ֖חַת יֹֽפִי׃ |
25 Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
| מְתַ֖יִךְ בַּחֶ֣רֶב יִפֹּ֑לוּ וּגְבוּרָתֵ֖ךְ בַּמִּלְחָמָֽה׃ |
26 And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she shall be desolate and sit upon the ground.
| וְאָנ֥וּ וְאָבְל֖וּ פְּתָחֶ֑יהָ וְנִקָּ֖תָה לָאָ֥רֶץ תֵּשֵֽׁב׃ |
