shim'u et-hadavar hazeh, asher anokhi noseh 'aleykhem kinah--beit Yisrael.
Hear ye this word which I take up for a lamentation over you, O house of Israel:
2.
נָפְלָה לֹא-תוֹסִיף קוּם, בְּתוּלַת יִשְׂרָאֵל; נִטְּשָׁה עַל-אַדְמָתָהּ, אֵין מְקִימָהּ.

The virgin of Israel is fallen, she shall no more rise; she is cast down upon her land, there is none to raise her up.

5.
וְאַל-תִּדְרְשׁוּ, בֵּית-אֵל, וְהַגִּלְגָּל לֹא תָבֹאוּ, וּבְאֵר שֶׁבַע לֹא תַעֲבֹרוּ: כִּי הַגִּלְגָּל גָּלֹה יִגְלֶה, וּבֵית-אֵל יִהְיֶה לְאָוֶן.
Ve'al-tidreshu, beit-el, vehagilgal lo tavo'u, ube'er sheva lo ta'avoru: ki hagilgal galoh yigleh, uveit-el yihyeh le'aven.
But seek not Beth-el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Beth-el shall come to nought.
6.
דִּרְשׁוּ אֶת-יְהוָה, וִחְיוּ: פֶּן-יִצְלַח כָּאֵשׁ בֵּית יוֹסֵף, וְאָכְלָה וְאֵין-מְכַבֶּה לְבֵית-אֵל.

Seek the LORD, and live--lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and it devour, and there be none to quench it in Bethel--

oseh khimah ukhesil, ve'hofekh laboker tzalmavet, veyom, laylah hekhshikh; ha'koreh lemei-hayam, vayishpekhem al-penei ha'aretz--YHWH shemo.
Him that maketh the Pleiades and Orion, and bringeth on the shadow of death in the morning, and darkeneth the day into night; that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth; the LORD is His name;

Therefore, because ye trample upon the poor, and take from him exactions of wheat; ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them, ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine thereof.
12.
כִּי יָדַעְתִּי רַבִּים פִּשְׁעֵיכֶם, וַעֲצֻמִים חַטֹּאתֵיכֶם; צֹרְרֵי צַדִּיק לֹקְחֵי כֹפֶר, וְאֶבְיוֹנִים בַּשַּׁעַר הִטּוּ.
ki yada'ti rabim pish'ekhem, va'atsumim khatotekhem; tsorerei tsadik lokhhei khofer, ve'evyonim bashar hitu.

lakhen koh-amar YHWH Elohei tzeva'ot, Adonai, bekhol-rekhovot misped, uv'khol-chut zot yomru ho-ho; vekar'u ikar el-evel, umisped el-yode'ei nehi.
Therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord: Lamentation shall be in all the broad places, and they shall say in all the streets: 'Alas! alas!' and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and proclaim lamentation to such as are skilful of wailing.

Ka'asher yanus ish mipnei ha'ari, u-fega'o hadov; u-va habayit--vesamakh yado al-ha-qir, uneshakho hanakhash.
As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; and went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

ki im-ta'alu-li olot uminchotekhem, lo ertze; veshelem meri'eikhem, lo abit.
Yea, though ye offer me burnt-offerings and your meal-offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace-offerings of your fat beasts.

Take thou away from Me the noise of thy songs; and let Me not hear the melody of thy psalteries.

unesatem, et sikut malkekhem, ve'et, kiyun tsalmeykhem--kokhav, eloheykhem, asher asitem, lakhem.
So shall ye take up Siccuth your king and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.

Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith He, whose name is the LORD God of hosts.
