חֲזוֹן, יְשַׁעְיָהוּ בֶן-אָמוֹץ, אֲשֶׁר חָזָה, עַל-יְהוּדָה וִירוּשָׁלִָם--בִּימֵי עֻזִּיָּהוּ יוֹתָם אָחָז יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ, מַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה.
khazon, yeshayahu ven-amots, asher khazah, al-yehudah virushalayim--bimei uziyahu yotam akhaz yekhizkiyahu, malkei yehudah.
The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2.
שִׁמְעוּ שָׁמַיִם וְהַאֲזִינִי אֶרֶץ, כִּי יְהוָה דִּבֵּר: בָּנִים גִּדַּלְתִּי וְרוֹמַמְתִּי, וְהֵם פָּשְׁעוּ בִי.
shim'u shamayim veha'azini eretz, ki YHWH diber: banim gidalti veromamti, vehem pash'u vi.
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the LORD hath spoken: Children I have reared, and brought up, and they have rebelled against Me.
3.
יָדַע שׁוֹר קֹנֵהוּ, וַחֲמוֹר אֵבוּס בְּעָלָיו; יִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא יָדַע, עַמִּי לֹא הִתְבּוֹנָן.
yada shor konehu, vekhamor evus be'alav; yisrael lo yada, ammi lo hitbonan.
The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib; but Israel doth not know, My people doth not consider.
4.
הוֹי גּוֹי חֹטֵא, עַם כֶּבֶד עָוֺן--זֶרַע מְרֵעִים, בָּנִים מַשְׁחִיתִים; עָזְבוּ אֶת-יְהוָה, נִאֲצוּ אֶת-קְדוֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל--נָזֹרוּ אָחוֹר.
hoy goy khote, am keved avon--zera mere'im, banim mashkhitim; azevu et-YHWH, ni'atsu et-kedosh yisrael--nazoru akhor.
Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evil-doers, children that deal corruptly; they have forsaken the LORD, they have contemned the Holy One of Israel, they are turned away backward.
5.
עַל מֶה תֻכּוּ עוֹד, תּוֹסִיפוּ סָרָה; כָּל-רֹאשׁ לָחֳלִי, וְכָל-לֵבָב דַּוָּי.
Al meh tuku od, tosifu sarah; kol-rosh lakholi, vechol-levav davay.
On what part will ye yet be stricken, seeing ye stray away more and more? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint;
6.
מִכַּף-רֶגֶל וְעַד-רֹאשׁ אֵין-בּוֹ מְתֹם, פֶּצַע וְחַבּוּרָה וּמַכָּה טְרִיָּה; לֹא-זֹרוּ וְלֹא חֻבָּשׁוּ, וְלֹא רֻכְּכָה בַּשָּׁמֶן.
Mikaf-regel ve'ad-rosh ein-bo metom, petza vechaburah umakah teriyah; lo-zoru velo chubashu, velo rukechah bashamen.
From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and festering sores: they have not been pressed, neither bound up, neither mollified with oil.
7.
אַרְצְכֶם שְׁמָמָה, עָרֵיכֶם שְׂרֻפוֹת אֵשׁ; אַדְמַתְכֶם, לְנֶגְדְּכֶם זָרִים אֹכְלִים אֹתָהּ, וּשְׁמָמָה, כְּמַהְפֵּכַת זָרִים.
Artzkhem shemamah, areikhem serufot esh; admatkhem, lenegedkhem zarim ochlim otah, ushemmamah, kemahfekhat zarim.
Your country is desolate; your cities are burned with fire; your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by floods.
8.
וְנוֹתְרָה בַת-צִיּוֹן, כְּסֻכָּה בְכָרֶם; כִּמְלוּנָה בְמִקְשָׁה, כְּעִיר נְצוּרָה.
Venotrah vat-Tziyon, kesukkah bekherem; kimlunah bemikshah, ke'ir netzurah.
And the daughter of Zion is left as a booth in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
9.
לוּלֵי יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, הוֹתִיר לָנוּ שָׂרִיד כִּמְעָט--כִּסְדֹם הָיִינוּ, לַעֲמֹרָה דָּמִינוּ.
Lule YHWH tzva'ot, hotir lanu sarid kim'at--kisdom hayinu, la'amorah daminu.
Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
10.
שִׁמְעוּ דְבַר-יְהוָה, קְצִינֵי סְדֹם; הַאֲזִינוּ תּוֹרַת אֱלֹהֵינוּ, עַם עֲמֹרָה.
Shim'u devar-YHWH, katzinei sedom; ha'azinu torat Eloheinu, am amorah.
Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
11.
לָמָּה-לִּי רֹב-זִבְחֵיכֶם יֹאמַר יְהוָה, שָׂבַעְתִּי עֹלוֹת אֵילִים וְחֵלֶב מְרִיאִים; וְדַם פָּרִים וּכְבָשִׂים וְעַתּוּדִים, לֹא חָפָצְתִּי.
Lammah-li rov-zivkhekhem yomar YHWH, sava'ti olot eilim vekhelev meri'im; vedam parim ukhevasim ve'atudim, lo khafatzi.
To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto Me? saith the LORD; I am full of the burnt-offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he-goats.
12.
כִּי תָבֹאוּ, לֵרָאוֹת פָּנָי--מִי-בִקֵּשׁ זֹאת מִיֶּדְכֶם, רְמֹס חֲצֵרָי.
Ki tavo'u, lera'ot panay--mi-vikkesh zot miyedkhem, remos khatzeray.
When ye come to appear before Me, who hath required this at your hand, to trample My courts?
13.
לֹא תוֹסִיפוּ, הָבִיא מִנְחַת-שָׁוְא--קְטֹרֶת תּוֹעֵבָה הִיא, לִי; חֹדֶשׁ וְשַׁבָּת קְרֹא מִקְרָא, לֹא-אוּכַל אָוֶן וַעֲצָרָה.
Lo tosifu, havi minkhat-shav--ktoret to'evah hi, li; khodesh v'shabat kro mikra, lo-ukhal aven va'atzarah.
Bring no more vain oblations; it is an offering of abomination unto Me; new moon and sabbath, the holding of convocations--I cannot endure iniquity along with the solemn assembly.
14.
חָדְשֵׁיכֶם וּמוֹעֲדֵיכֶם שָׂנְאָה נַפְשִׁי, הָיוּ עָלַי לָטֹרַח; נִלְאֵיתִי, נְשֹׂא.
Khadsheikhem umo'adeikhem sane'ah nafshi, hayu alay latorah; nil'eti, nso.
Your new moons and your appointed seasons My soul hateth; they are a burden unto Me; I am weary to bear them.
15.
וּבְפָרִשְׂכֶם כַּפֵּיכֶם, אַעְלִים עֵינַי מִכֶּם--גַּם כִּי-תַרְבּוּ תְפִלָּה, אֵינֶנִּי שֹׁמֵעַ: יְדֵיכֶם, דָּמִים מָלֵאוּ.
Uvfriskhem kapeikhem, a'lim einay mikem--gam ki-tarbu tfillah, einenni shome'a: yedeikhem, damim male'u.
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide Mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear; your hands are full of blood.
16.
רַחֲצוּ, הִזַּכּוּ--הָסִירוּ רֹעַ מַעַלְלֵיכֶם, מִנֶּגֶד עֵינָי: חִדְלוּ, הָרֵעַ.
Rakhutsu, hizzaku--hasiru ro'a ma'allεikhem, minneged einay: khidlu, ha'rea.
Wash you, make you clean, put away the evil of your doings from before Mine eyes, cease to do evil;
17.
לִמְדוּ הֵיטֵב דִּרְשׁוּ מִשְׁפָּט, אַשְּׁרוּ חָמוֹץ; שִׁפְטוּ יָתוֹם, רִיבוּ אַלְמָנָה.
limdu hetev dirshu mishpat, ashru khamotz; shifto yatom, rivu almanah.
Learn to do well; seek justice, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18.
לְכוּ-נָא וְנִוָּכְחָה, יֹאמַר יְהוָה; אִם-יִהְיוּ חֲטָאֵיכֶם כַּשָּׁנִים כַּשֶּׁלֶג יַלְבִּינוּ, אִם-יַאְדִּימוּ כַתּוֹלָע כַּצֶּמֶר יִהְיוּ.
lekhu-na ve'nivakhah, yomar YHWH; im-yihyu khata'ikhem kashanim kasheleg yalbinu, im-ya'dimu katola katzetemer yihyu.
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19.
אִם-תֹּאבוּ, וּשְׁמַעְתֶּם--טוּב הָאָרֶץ, תֹּאכֵלוּ.
im-to'vu, ushma'etem--tov ha'aretz, tokhelu.
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land;
20.
וְאִם-תְּמָאֲנוּ, וּמְרִיתֶם--חֶרֶב תְּאֻכְּלוּ, כִּי פִּי יְהוָה דִּבֵּר.
ve'im-tema'anu, umeritem--kherev te'ukhelu, ki fi YHWH diber.
But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken.
21.
אֵיכָה הָיְתָה לְזוֹנָה, קִרְיָה נֶאֱמָנָה; מְלֵאֲתִי מִשְׁפָּט, צֶדֶק יָלִין בָּהּ--וְעַתָּה מְרַצְּחִים.
Eikhah hayetah lezonah, kiryah ne'emanah; mele'ati mishpat, tzedek yalin bah--ve'atah meratzchim.
How is the faithful city become a harlot! She that was full of justice, righteousness lodged in her, but now murderers.
22.
כַּסְפֵּךְ, הָיָה לְסִיגִים; סָבְאֵךְ, מָהוּל בַּמָּיִם.
Kasfek, hayah lesigim; save'ek, mahul bamayim.
Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water.
23.
שָׂרַיִךְ סוֹרְרִים, וְחַבְרֵי גַּנָּבִים--כֻּלּוֹ אֹהֵב שֹׁחַד, וְרֹדֵף שַׁלְמֹנִים; יָתוֹם לֹא יִשְׁפֹּטוּ, וְרִיב אַלְמָנָה לֹא-יָבוֹא אֲלֵיהֶם.
Sarikh sorerim, vekhavrei ganavim--kullo ohev shochad, verodef shalmonim; yatom lo ishpotu, veriv almanah lo-yavo aleihem.
Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves; every one loveth bribes, and followeth after rewards; they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.
24.
לָכֵן, נְאֻם הָאָדוֹן יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת--אֲבִיר, יִשְׂרָאֵל: הוֹי אֶנָּחֵם מִצָּרַי, וְאִנָּקְמָה מֵאוֹיְבָי.
Lakhen, ne'um ha'adon YHWH tzeba'ot--avir, Yisrael: hoy ennachem mitzaray, ve'innakmah me'oyevay.
Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ah, I will ease Me of Mine adversaries, and avenge Me of Mine enemies;
25.
וְאָשִׁיבָה יָדִי עָלַיִךְ, וְאֶצְרֹף כַּבֹּר סִיגָיִךְ; וְאָסִירָה, כָּל-בְּדִילָיִךְ.
ve'ashivah yadi alayikh, ve'etzrof kabor sigayikh; ve'asirah, kol-bedilayikh.
And I will turn My hand upon thee, and purge away thy dross as with lye, and will take away all thine alloy;
26.
וְאָשִׁיבָה שֹׁפְטַיִךְ כְּבָרִאשֹׁנָה, וְיֹעֲצַיִךְ כְּבַתְּחִלָּה; אַחֲרֵי-כֵן, יִקָּרֵא לָךְ עִיר הַצֶּדֶק--קִרְיָה, נֶאֱמָנָה.
ve'ashivah shoftayikh kevarishonah, veyo'atsayikh kevattechillah; akharei-khen, yikare lakh ir hatzedek--kiryah, ne'emanah.
And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning; afterward thou shalt be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
27.
צִיּוֹן, בְּמִשְׁפָּט תִּפָּדֶה; וְשָׁבֶיהָ, בִּצְדָקָה.
tziyon, bemishpat tipadeh; veshavheyha, bitzdakah.
Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and they that return of her with righteousness.
28.
וְשֶׁבֶר פֹּשְׁעִים וְחַטָּאִים, יַחְדָּו; וְעֹזְבֵי יְהוָה, יִכְלוּ.
veshever posh'im vechata'im, yakhdav; ve'ozvei YHWH, yikhlu.
But the destruction of the transgressors and the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
29.
כִּי יֵבֹשׁוּ, מֵאֵילִים אֲשֶׁר חֲמַדְתֶּם; וְתַחְפְּרוּ--מֵהַגַּנּוֹת, אֲשֶׁר בְּחַרְתֶּם.
ki yevoshu, me'eilim asher khamadtem; vetaḥperu--mehagannot, asher beḥartem.
For they shall be ashamed of the terebinths which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.
30.
כִּי תִהְיוּ, כְּאֵלָה נֹבֶלֶת עָלֶהָ; וּכְגַנָּה, אֲשֶׁר-מַיִם אֵין לָהּ.
ki tihyu, ke'elah novelet aleha; ukhgannah, asher-mayim ein lah.
For ye shall be as a terebinth whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.
31.
וְהָיָה הֶחָסֹן לִנְעֹרֶת, וּפֹעֲלוֹ לְנִיצוֹץ; וּבָעֲרוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם יַחְדָּו, וְאֵין מְכַבֶּה.
vehayah hekhason lin'oret, ufo'alo lenitzotץ; uva'aru sheneihem yaḥdav, ve'ein mekhabeh.
And the strong shall be as tow, and his work as a spark; and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
