Isaiah (ישעיה) - Isaia 81

STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ עַל־הַגִּתִּית לְאָסָף	1 Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.
2 הַרְנִינוּ לֵאלֹהִים עוּזֵּנוּ הָרִיעוּ לֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב	2 Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
3 שְׂאוּ־זִמְרָה וּתְנוּ־תֹף כִּנֹּור נָעִים עִם־נָבֶל	3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
4 תִּקְעוּ בַחֹדֶשׁ שֹׁופָר בַּכֵּסֶה לְיֹום חַגֵּנוּ	4 For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.
5 כִּי חֹק לְיִשְׂרָאֵל הוּא מִשְׁפָּט לֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב	5 This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.
6 עֵדוּת ׀ בִּיהֹוסֵף שָׂמֹו בְּצֵאתֹו עַל־אֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם שְׂפַת לֹא־יָדַעְתִּי אֶשְׁמָע	6 I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.
7 הֲסִירֹותִי מִסֵּבֶל שִׁכְמֹו כַּפָּיו מִדּוּד תַּעֲבֹרְנָה	7 Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
8 בַּצָּרָה קָרָאתָ וָאֲחַלְּצֶךָּ אֶעֶנְךָ בְּסֵתֶר רַעַם אֶבְחָנְךָ עַל־מֵי מְרִיבָה סֶלָה	8 Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;
9 שְׁמַע עַמִּי וְאָעִידָה בָּךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל אִם־תִּשְׁמַע־לִי	9 There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.
10 לֹא־יִהְיֶה בְךָ אֵל זָר וְלֹא תִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה לְאֵל נֵכָר	10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 אָנֹכִי ׀ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ הַמַּעַלְךָ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם הַרְחֶב־פִּיךָ וַאֲמַלְאֵהוּ	11 But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
12 וְלֹא־שָׁמַע עַמִּי לְקֹולִי וְיִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא־אָבָה לִי	12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their own counsels.
13 וָאֲשַׁלְּחֵהוּ בִּשְׁרִירוּת לִבָּם יֵלְכוּ בְּמֹועֲצֹותֵיהֶם	13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
14 לוּ עַמִּי שֹׁמֵעַ לִי יִשְׂרָאֵל בִּדְרָכַי יְהַלֵּכוּ	14 I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.
15 כִּמְעַט אֹויְבֵיהֶם אַכְנִיעַ וְעַל צָרֵיהֶם אָשִׁיב יָדִי	15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.
16 מְשַׂנְאֵי יְהוָה יְכַחֲשׁוּ־לֹו וִיהִי עִתָּם לְעֹולָם	16 He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
17 וַיַּאֲכִילֵהוּ מֵחֵלֶב חִטָּה וּמִצּוּר דְּבַשׁ אַשְׂבִּיעֶךָ
