1 Haway (Alas/Woe!) To you who shadad (destroy), but you weren't shadad (destroyed); and who betray, but nobody betrayed you! When you thamam (have) finished shadad (destroying), you will be shadad (destroyed); and when you have nalah (made) an end of betrayal, you will be betrayed.
2 Yahawah (), be gracious to us. We have qawah (gather/wait) for you. Be our zarawai (strength) every baqar (morning), our yashawaih (salvation) also in the ith (time) of tzarah (trouble).
3 At the qawal (sound / voice) of the thunder, the imayam (peoples) have nadad (fled). When you lift yourself up, the gawayam (heathen) are napatz (scattered).
4 Your shalal (spoil) will be asap (gathered) as the chasayal (caterpillar) gathers. Men will leap on it as gabayam (locusts) leap.
5 Yahawah () is shagab (exalted), for he shakan (place) on marawam (high). He malaa (has) filled Tzayawan (Zion) with mashapat (justice) and tzadaqah (righteousness).
6 There will be amawanah (stability) in your ith (times), abundance of yashawaih (salvation), chakamah (wisdom), and daith (knowledge). The yaraah (fear) of Yahawah () is your awatzar (treasure).
7 Behold, their araal (valiant) ones tzaiq (cry) outside; the malaakay (ambassadors) of shalawam (peace / safety) bakah (weep) bitterly.
8 The masalawath (highways) are shamam (desolate). The traveling ibar (pass over/through) shabath (shabath / rest). The barayath (covenant) is parar (broken). He has maas (despised) the irayam (cities). He doesn't respect anawash (man).
9 The aratz (Earth/land) abal (mourns) and languishes. Labanawan (Lebanon) is chapar (confounded) and qamal (withers) away. Sharawan (Sharon) is like a irabah (desert), and Bashan (Bashan) and Karamal (Carmel) are stripped bare.
10 “Now I will qawam (rise up),” amar (spoke) Yahawah (); “Now I will nashaa (lift) myself up. Now I will be nashaa (lift).
11 You will harah (conceive) chashash (chaff). You will yalad (birth / begot) forth qash (stubble). Your rawach (spirit / wind) is a ash (fire) that will akal (eat) you.
12 The imayam (peoples) will be like the burning of shayad (lime), like qawatzayam (thorns) that are kasach (cut) down and yatzath (burned) in the ash (fire).
13 Shamai (hearken / hear), you who are rachawaq (far) off, what I ishah (make) done; and, you who are qarawab (near), yadai (acknowledge) my gabawarah (might).”
14 The chataayam (sinners) in Tzayawan (Zion) are pachad (fear / dread). Trembling achaz (has) seized the godless gawar (ones). Who among us can live with the akal (eat) ash (fire)? Who among us can live with iwalam (eternity) mawaqad (burning)?
15 He who halak (move) righteously, and dabar (word / matter) blamelessly; He who maas (despises) the batzai (gain) of maishaqawath (oppressions), who gestures with his kap (hands), refusing to thamak (take) a shachad (bribe), who atam (stops) his azan (ear) from shamai (hearken / hear) of dam (blood), and itzam (shuts) his iyan (eye) from raah (see / saw) at rai (evil)—
16 He will shakan (place) on marawam (high). His place of defense will be the fortress of salaiyam (rocks). His lacham (bread) will be supplied. His mayam (Waters) will be aman (believe / have faith).
17 Your iyan (eye) will chazah (see) the malak (king) in his yapay (beauty). They will raah (see / saw) a distant aratz (Earth/land).
18 Your lab (heart) will hagah (meditate) on the ayamah (terror). Where is he who sapar (book)? Where is he who shaqal (weighed)? Where is he who sapar (book) the magadalayam (towers)?
19 You will no longer raah (see / saw) the yaiz (fierce) im (nation / people), a im (nation / people) of a deep shapah (speech) that you can't comprehend, with a strange lashawan (tongue / language) that you can't understand.
20 Chazah (look) at Tzayawan (Zion), the qarayah (city / town) of our mawaid (Feast/Holy Day) festivals. Your iyan (eye) will raah (see / saw) Yarawashalam (Yarawashalam / Jerusalem), a shaanan (quiet) nawah (habitation), a ahal (tent) that won't be removed. Its yathad (stakes) will never be plucked up, nor will any of its chabal (cords) be nathaq (broken).
21 But there Yahawah () will be with us in majesty, a maqawam (place) of rachab (broad) naharayam (rivers) and yaarayam (streams), in which no anay (galley) with shayat (oars) will yalak (go), neither will any adayar (gallant) tzay (ship) ibar (pass over/through) by there.
22 For Yahawah () is our shapat (judge / judgement). Yahawah () is our chaqaq (lawgiver). Yahawah () is our malak (king). He will yashai (salvation) us.
23 Your rigging is untied. They couldn't chazaq (strengthen) the kan (for sure) of their tharan (mast). They couldn't parash (spread) the nas (sail). Then the id (until / as far as) of a marabah (great) shalal (spoil) was chalaq (divided). The pasach (lame) bazaz (took) the baz (prey).
24 The shakan (inhabitant) won't amar (say), "I am chalah (afflicted)." The im (nation / people) who yashab (dwell) within her nashaa (lift up) iwan (guilt/iniquity).
