1 Moreover the dabar (word / matter) of Yahawah () came to me, amar (spoke),
2 “You, ban (son) of adam (man), will you shapat (judge / judgement), will you shapat (judge / judgement) the bloody iyar (city)? Then yadai (cause) her to know all her thawaibah (abominations).
3 You shall amar (spoke), ‘Thus amar (spoke) the Adanay () Yahawah (): “A iyar (city) that shapak (sheds) dam (blood) in the thawak (midst) of her, that her ith (time) may bawaa (come), and that ishah (make) galawalayam (idols) against herself to tamaa (defile) her!
4 You have become asham (guilty) in your dam (blood) that you have shapak (shed), and are tamaa (defiled) in your galawal (idols) which you ishah (make) made; and you have caused your yawam (day) to qarab (come close) near, and bawaa (bring) come even to your shanah (years): therefore nathan (give) I made you a charapah (reproach) to the gawayam (heathen), and a qalasah (mocking) to all the aratzawath (countries).
5 Those who are qarawab (near), and those who are rachawaq (far) from you, shall qalas (mock) you, you tamaa (infamous) one and rab (full) of mahawamah (tumult).
6 “‘“Behold, the nashayaay (princes) of Yashar-Al (Israel), everyone according to his zarawai (power), have been in you to shapak (shed) dam (blood).
7 In you have they set qalal (light) by ab (father) and am (mother); in the thawak (midst) of you ishah (make) they dealt by ishaq (oppression) with the foreigner; in you have they wronged the yathawam (fatherless) and the alamanah (widow).
8 You have bazah (despised) my qadash (set apart / make holy) things, and have chalal (profaned) my shabath (shabath / rest).
9 Slanderous anashay (men) have been in you to shapak (shed) dam (blood); and in you they have akal (eat) on the harayam (mountains): in the thawak (midst) of you they ishah (make) committed lewdness.
10 In you have they galah (uncovered) their ab (father)’ irawah (nakedness); in you have they inah (answer / respond) her who was nadah (unclean) in her impurity.
11 Ayash (man / husband) ishah (make) committed thawaibah (abomination) with his neighbor's ayashah (woman / wife); and ayash (man / husband) has lewdly tamaa (defiled) his kalah (complete / finish); and ayash (man / husband) in you has inah (answer / respond) his achawath (sister), his ab (father) banath (daughter).
12 In you have they laqach (take / seize) shachad (bribes) to shapak (shed) dam (blood); you have laqach (take / seize) interest and tharabayath (increase), and you have greedily batzai (gained) of your neighbors by ishaq (oppression), and have shakach (forgotten) me,” naam (declares prophetically) the Adanay () Yahawah ().
13 “‘“Behold, therefore, I have nakah (struck) my kap (hand) at your dishonest batzai (gain) which you ishah (make) made, and at your dam (blood) which has been in the thawak (midst) of you.
14 Can your lab (heart) imad (endure), or can your yad (hand) be chazaq (strong), in the yamayam (days) that I shall ishah (make) with you? I, Yahawah (), have dabar (word / matter) it, and will ishah (make) it.
15 I will pawatz (scatter) you among the gawayam (heathen), and zarah (disperse) you through the aratzawath (countries); and I will thamam (consume) your tamaah (filthiness) out of you.
16 You shall be chalal (profaned) in yourself, in the iyan (eye) of the gawayam (nations); and you shall yadai (know) that I am Yahawah ().”’”
17 The dabar (word / matter) of Yahawah () came to me, amar (spoke),
18 “Ban (son) of adam (man), the bayath (house) of Yashar-Al (Israel) has become sayag (dross) to me: all of them are nachashath (brass) and badayal (divide) and barazal (iron) and iwaparath (lead), in the thawak (midst) of the kawar (furnace); they are the sayag (dross) of kasap (silver).
19 Therefore thus amar (spoke) the Adanay () Yahawah (): ‘Because you have all become sayag (dross), therefore, behold, I will qabatz (gather) you into the thawak (midst) of Yarawashalam (Jerusalem).
20 As they qabatzah (gather) kasap (silver) and nachashath (brass) and barazal (iron) and iwaparath (lead) and badayal (divide) into the thawak (midst) of the kawar (furnace), to napach (blow) the ash (fire) on it, to nathak (melt) it; so will I qabatz (gather) you in my ap (nostril / picture: bull snorting) and in my chamah (wrath), and I will yanach (lay) you there, and nathak (melt) you.
21 Yes, I will kanas (gather) you, and napach (blow) on you with the ash (fire) of my ibarah (wrath), and you shall be nathak (melted) in its thawak (midst).
22 As kasap (silver) is hathawak (melted) in the thawak (midst) of the kawar (furnace), so you will be nathak (melted) in its thawak (midst); and you yadai (will) know that I, Yahawah (), have shapak (poured) out my chamah (wrath) on you.’”
23 The dabar (word / matter) of Yahawah () came to me, amar (spoke),
24 “Ban (son) of adam (man), amar (said) her, ‘You are a aratz (Earth/land) that is not tahar (cleansed), nor gasham (rained) on in the yawam (day) of zaim (indignation).’
25 There is a qashar (conspiracy) of her nabayaa (prophet/prophecy) in its thawak (midst), like a shaag (roaring) aray (lion) ravening the tarap (prey): they have akal (eat) napash (soul); they laqach (take / seize) chasan (treasure) and yaqar (precious) things; they have made her alamanah (widows) many in its thawak (midst).
26 Her kahan (priest) have chamas (done) violence to my thawarah (Torah / Instruction), and have chalal (profaned) my qadash (set apart / make holy) things: they have badal (separated) no distinction between the qadash (set apart / make holy) and the chal (common), neither yadai (have) they caused men to discern between the tamaa (unclean) and the tahawar (clean), and have ilam (hidden) their iyan (eye) from my shabath (shabath / rest), and I am chalal (profaned) thawak (midst) them.
27 Her shar (prince / ruler) in its qarab (among / near) are like wolves ravening the tarap (prey), to shapak (shed) dam (blood), and to abad (destroy / perish) napashawath (souls), that they may batzai (get) dishonest batzai (gain).
28 Her nabayaa (prophet/prophecy) have plastered for them with whitewash, seeing shawaa (vanity) visions, and qasam (divining) kazab (lies) to them, amar (spoke), ‘Thus amarayam (says) the Adanay () Yahawah (),’ when Yahawah () has not dabar (word / matter).
29 The im (nation / people) of the aratz (Earth/land) have used ishaq (oppression), and gazal (exercised) gazal (robbery); yes, they have troubled the inay (poor) and abayawan (needy), and have ishaq (oppressed) the foreigner wrongfully.
30 “I baqash (sought) for a ayash (man / husband) among them, who should build up the gadar (wall), and imad (stand) in the paratz (gap) panayam (face) me for the aratz (Earth/land), that I should not shachath (destroy) it; but I matzaa (found) none.
31 Therefore have I shapak (poured) out my zaim (indignation) on them; I kalah (complete / finish) consumed them with the ash (fire) of my ibarah (wrath): their own darak (way) nathan (give) I brought on their raash (head),” naam (declares prophetically) the Adanay () Yahawah ().
