Law History Wisdom Prophets Gospels Acts Epistles Apocalyptic
1 The word which Isaiah, the son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem. | 1 הַדָּבָר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָזָ֔ה יְשַֽׁעְיָ֖הוּ בֶּן־אָמֹ֑וץ עַל־יְהוּדָ֖ה וִירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ | |
2 And it will come about in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord will be placed on the top of the mountains, and be lifted up over the hills; and all nations will come to it. | 2 וְהָיָ֣ה׀ בְּאַחֲרִ֣ית הַיָּמִ֗ים נָכֹ֨ון יִֽהְיֶ֜ה הַ֤ר בֵּית־יְהוָה֙ בְּרֹ֣אשׁ הֶהָרִ֔ים וְנִשָּׂ֖א מִגְּבָעֹ֑ות וְנָהֲר֥וּ אֵלָ֖יו כָּל־הַגֹּויִֽם׃ | |
3 And the peoples will say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he will give us knowledge of his ways, and we will be guided by his word; for out of Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. | 3 וְֽהָלְכ֞וּ עַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֗ים וְאָמְרוּ֙ לְכ֣וּ׀ וְנַעֲלֶ֣ה אֶל־הַר־יְהוָ֗ה אֶל־בֵּית֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יַעֲקֹ֔ב וְיֹרֵ֙נוּ֙ מִדְּרָכָ֔יו וְנֵלְכָ֖ה בְּאֹרְחֹתָ֑יו כִּ֤י מִצִּיֹּון֙ תֵּצֵ֣א תֹורָ֔ה וּדְבַר־יְהוָ֖ה מִירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ | |
4 And he will be the judge between the nations, and the peoples will be ruled by his decisions: and their swords will be turned into plough-blades, and their spears into vine-knives: no longer will the nations be turning their swords against one another, and the knowledge of war will be gone for ever. | 4 וְשָׁפַט֙ בֵּ֣ין הַגֹּויִ֔ם וְהֹוכִ֖יחַ לְעַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים וְכִתְּת֨וּ חַרְבֹותָ֜ם לְאִתִּ֗ים וַחֲנִיתֹֽותֵיהֶם֙ לְמַזְמֵרֹ֔ות לֹא־יִשָּׂ֨א גֹ֤וי אֶל־גֹּוי֙ חֶ֔רֶב וְלֹא־יִלְמְד֥וּ עֹ֖וד מִלְחָמָֽה׃ | |
5 O family of Jacob, come, and let us go in the light of the Lord. | 5 בֵּ֖ית יַעֲקֹ֑ב לְכ֥וּ וְנֵלְכָ֖ה בְּאֹ֥ור יְהוָֽה׃ | |
6 For you, O Lord, have given up your people, the family of Jacob, because they are full of the evil ways of the east, and make use of secret arts like the Philistines, and are friends with the children of strange countries. | 6 כִּ֣י נָטַ֗שְׁתָּה עַמְּךָ֙ בֵּ֣ית יַעֲקֹ֔ב כִּ֤י מָלְאוּ֙ מִקֶּ֔דֶם וְעֹֽנְנִ֖ים כַּפְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וּבְיַלְדֵ֥י נָכְרִ֖ים יַשְׂפִּֽיקוּ׃ | |
7 And their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no end to their stores; their land is full of horses, and there is no end to their carriages. | 7 וַתִּמָּלֵ֤א אַרְצֹו֙ כֶּ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֔ב וְאֵ֥ין קֵ֖צֶה לְאֹצְרֹתָ֑יו וַתִּמָּלֵ֤א אַרְצֹו֙ סוּסִ֔ים וְאֵ֥ין קֵ֖צֶה לְמַרְכְּבֹתָֽיו׃ | |
8 Their land is full of images; they give worship to the work of their hands, even to that which their fingers have made. | 8 וַתִּמָּלֵ֥א אַרְצֹ֖ו אֱלִילִ֑ים לְמַעֲשֵׂ֤ה יָדָיו֙ יִֽשְׁתַּחֲו֔וּ לַאֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשׂ֖וּ אֶצְבְּעֹתָֽיו׃ | |
9 And the poor man's head is bent, and the great man goes down on his face: for this cause there will be no forgiveness for their sin. | 9 וַיִּשַּׁ֥ח אָדָ֖ם וַיִּשְׁפַּל־אִ֑ישׁ וְאַל־תִּשָּׂ֖א לָהֶֽם׃ | |
10 Go into a hole in the rock, covering yourselves with dust, in fear of the Lord, before the glory of his power. | 10 בֹּ֣וא בַצּ֔וּר וְהִטָּמֵ֖ן בֶּֽעָפָ֑ר מִפְּנֵי֙ פַּ֣חַד יְהוָ֔ה וּמֵהֲדַ֖ר גְּאֹנֹֽו׃ | |
11 The high looks of man will be put to shame, and the pride of men will be made low, and only the Lord will be lifted up in that day. | 11 עֵינֵ֞י גַּבְה֤וּת אָדָם֙ שָׁפֵ֔ל וְשַׁ֖ח ר֣וּם אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב יְהוָ֛ה לְבַדֹּ֖ו בַּיֹּ֥ום הַהֽוּא׃ | |
12 For the day of the Lord of armies is coming on all the pride of men, and on all who are high and lifted up; | 12 כִּ֣י יֹ֞ום לַיהוָ֧ה צְבָאֹ֛ות עַ֥ל כָּל־גֵּאֶ֖ה וָרָ֑ם וְעַ֖ל כָּל־נִשָּׂ֥א וְשָׁפֵֽל׃ | |
13 And on all the high trees of Lebanon, and on all the strong trees of Bashan; | 13 וְעַל֙ כָּל־אַרְזֵ֣י הַלְּבָנֹ֔ון הָרָמִ֖ים וְהַנִּשָּׂאִ֑ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־אַלֹּונֵ֥י הַבָּשָֽׁן׃ | |
14 And on all the high mountains, and on all the hills which are lifted up; | 14 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־הֶהָרִ֣ים הָרָמִ֑ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־הַגְּבָעֹ֥ות הַנִּשָּׂאֹֽות׃ | |
15 And on every high tower, and on every strong wall; | 15 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־מִגְדָּ֣ל גָּבֹ֑הַ1 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־חֹומָ֥ה בְצוּרָֽה׃ | |
16 And on all the ships of Tarshish, and on all the fair boats. | 16 וְעַ֖ל כָּל־אֳנִיֹּ֣ות תַּרְשִׁ֑ישׁ וְעַ֖ל כָּל־שְׂכִיֹּ֥ות הַחֶמְדָּֽה׃ | |
17 And the high looks of man will be put to shame, and the pride of men will be made low: and only the Lord will be lifted up in that day. | 17 וְשַׁח֙ גַּבְה֣וּת הָאָדָ֔ם וְשָׁפֵ֖ל ר֣וּם אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב יְהוָ֛ה לְבַדֹּ֖ו בַּיֹּ֥ום הַהֽוּא׃ | |
18 And the images will never be seen again. | 18 וְהָאֱלִילִ֖ים כָּלִ֥יל יַחֲלֹֽף׃ | |
19 And men will go into cracks of the rocks, and into holes of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength. | 19 וּבָ֙אוּ֙ בִּמְעָרֹ֣ות צֻרִ֔ים וּבִמְחִלֹּ֖ות עָפָ֑ר מִפְּנֵ֞י פַּ֤חַד יְהוָה֙ וּמֵהֲדַ֣ר גְּאֹונֹ֔ו בְּקוּמֹ֖ו לַעֲרֹ֥ץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | |
20 In that day men will put their images of silver and of gold, which they made for worship, in the keeping of the beasts of the dark places; | 20 בַּיֹּ֤ום הַהוּא֙ יַשְׁלִ֣יךְ הָאָדָ֔ם אֵ֚ת אֱלִילֵ֣י כַסְפֹּ֔ו וְאֵ֖ת אֱלִילֵ֣י זְהָבֹ֑ו אֲשֶׁ֤ר עָֽשׂוּ־לֹו֙ לְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֹ֔ת לַחְפֹּ֥ר פֵּרֹ֖ות וְלָעֲטַלֵּפִֽים׃ | |
21 To take cover in the cracks of the rocks, and in the holes of the hills, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength. | 21 לָבֹוא֙ בְּנִקְרֹ֣ות הַצֻּרִ֔ים וּבִסְעִפֵ֖י הַסְּלָעִ֑ים מִפְּנֵ֞י פַּ֤חַד יְהוָה֙ וּמֵהֲדַ֣ר גְּאֹונֹ֔ו בְּקוּמֹ֖ו לַעֲרֹ֥ץ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | |
22 Have no more to do with man, whose life is only a breath, for he is of no value. | 22 חִדְל֤וּ לָכֶם֙ מִן־הָ֣אָדָ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר נְשָׁמָ֖ה בְּאַפֹּ֑ו כִּֽי־בַמֶּ֥ה נֶחְשָׁ֖ב הֽוּא׃ | |
