Isaiah 17

1 [the] oracle of Damascus there! Damascus [is] about to be removed from a city and it will be a ruin of a ruin.

2 [will be] abandoned [the] cities of Aroer for flocks they will be and they will lie down and there not [will be one who] terrifies.

3 And it will cease fortress from Ephraim and kingship from Damascus and [the] remnant of Aram like [the] glory of [the] people of Israel they will be [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.

4 And it will be in the day that it will become low [the] glory of Jacob and [the] fatness of flesh its it will be made lean.

5 And it will be like [the] gathering of a harvest of standing grain and arm his ears of grain someone will reap and it will be like [one who] gathers ears of grain in [the] valley of Rephaim.

6 And it will be left in it gleanings like [the] beating of an olive tree two three olives at [the] top of [the] tree-top four five on branches its fruit-bearing [the] utterance of Yahweh [the] God of Israel.

7 In the day that he will look person on maker his and eyes his to [the] holy [one] of Israel they will see.

8 And not he will look to the altars [the] work of hands his and [that] which they have made fingers his not he will see and the Asherah poles and the incense altars.

9 In the day that they will be - [the] cities of refuge his like [the] forsaken [place] of the forest and the tree-top which they abandoned because of [the] people of Israel and it will be a desolation.

10 For you have forgotten [the] God of salvation your and [the] rock of refuge your not you have remembered there-fore you plant plantations of pleasantness and [the] vine branch of a stranger you sow it.

11 On [the] day of planting your you cause to grow and in the morning seed your you cause to sprout a heap a harvest in a day of [being] sick and pain incurable.

12 Woe to! [the] tumult of peoples many as roar [the] seas they roar! and [the] uproar of nations like [the] uproar of waters mighty they are in an uproar!

13 Nations like [the] uproar of waters many they are in an uproar! and he will rebuke it and it will flee from a distance and it will be chased like chaff of mountains before a wind and like whirling dust before a storm-wind.

14 To a time of evening and there! sudden terror before morning there not [is] it this [will be] [the] portion of [those who] plunder us and [the] lot of [those who] despoil us.
