< 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.
The birthun of Damask. Lo! Damask schal faile to be a citee, and it schal be as an heep of stoonys in fallyng.
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.
The forsakun citees of Aroer schulen be to flockis; and tho schulen reste there, and noon schal be that schal make aferd.
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.
And help schal ceesse fro Effraym, and a rewme fro Damask; and the relifs of Sirie schulen be as the glorie of the sones of Israel, seith the Lord of oostis.
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.
And it schal be, in that dai the glorie of Jacob schal be maad thinne, and the fatnesse of his fleisch shal fade.
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.
And it schal be as gaderyng togidere that that is left in heruest, and his arm schal gadere eeris of corn, and it schal be as sekynge eeris of corn in the valei of Raphaym.
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.
And there schal be left in it as a rasyn, and as the schakyng doun of the fruyt of olyue tre, as of tweyne ether of thre olyue trees in the hiynesse of a braunche, ether of foure ether of fyue; in the cooppis therof schal be the fruyt therof, seith the Lord 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.
In that dai a man schal be bowid to his maker, and hise iyen schulen biholde to the hooli of Israel.
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.
And he schal not be bowid to the auteris, whiche hise hondis maden, and whiche hise fyngris wrouyten; he schal not biholde wodis, and templis of idols.
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.
In that dai the citees of strengthe therof schulen be forsakun as plowis, and cornes that weren forsakun of the face of the sones of Israel; and thou schalt be forsakun.
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.
For thou hast foryete God, thi sauyour, and haddist not mynde on thi stronge helpere; therfor thou schalt plaunte a feithful plauntyng, and thou schalt sowe an alien seed.
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.
In the dai of thi plauntyng schal be a wielde vyne, and erli thi seed schal floure; ripe corne is takun awei in the dai of eritage, and Israel schal make sorewe greuousli.
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!
Wo to the multitude of many puplis, as the multitude of the see sownynge, and the noise of cumpenyes as the sown of many watris.
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.
Puplis schulen sowne as the sown of flowynge watris, and God schal blame hym; and he schal fle fer, and he schal be rauyschid as the dust of hillis fro the face of the wynd, and as a whirlewynd bifor tempest.
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.
In the time of euentide, and lo! disturbling; in the morewtid, and he schal not abide. This is the part of hem that destrieden vs, and the part of hem that rauyschiden vs.
