1 כִּי הִנֵּה הָאָדֹון יְהוָה צְבָאֹות מֵסִיר מִירוּשָׁלִַם וּמִיהוּדָה מַשְׁעֵן וּמַשְׁעֵנָה כֹּל מִשְׁעַן־לֶחֶם וְכֹל מִשְׁעַן־מָיִם1 The Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall take away from Jerusalem and from Judah support and prop (all supplies of bread and water):
2 גִּבֹּור וְאִישׁ מִלְחָמָה שֹׁופֵט וְנָבִיא וְקֹסֵם וְזָקֵן2 Hero and warrior, judge and prophet, fortune-teller and elder,
3 שַׂר־חֲמִשִּׁים וּנְשׂוּא פָנִים וְיֹועֵץ וַחֲכַם חֲרָשִׁים וּנְבֹון לָחַשׁ3 The captain of fifty and the nobleman, counselor, skilled magician, and expert charmer.
4 וְנָתַתִּי נְעָרִים שָׂרֵיהֶם וְתַעֲלוּלִים יִמְשְׁלוּ־בָם4 I will make striplings their princes; the fickle shall govern them,
5 וְנִגַּשׂ הָעָם אִישׁ בְּאִישׁ וְאִישׁ בְּרֵעֵהוּ יִרְהֲבוּ הַנַּעַר בַּזָּקֵן וְהַנִּקְלֶה בַּנִּכְבָּד5 And the people shall oppress one another, yes, every man his neighbor. The child shall be bold toward the elder, and the base toward the honorable.
6 כִּי־יִתְפֹּשׂ אִישׁ בְּאָחִיו בֵּית אָבִיו שִׂמְלָה לְכָה קָצִין תִּהְיֶה־לָּנוּ וְהַמַּכְשֵׁלָה הַזֹּאת תַּחַת יָדֶךָ6 When a man seizes his brother in his father's house, saying, "You have clothes! Be our ruler, and take in hand this ruin!"--
7 יִשָּׂא בַיֹּום הַהוּא ׀ לֵאמֹר לֹא־אֶהְיֶה חֹבֵשׁ וּבְבֵיתִי אֵין לֶחֶם וְאֵין שִׂמְלָה לֹא תְשִׂימֻנִי קְצִין עָם7 Then shall he answer in that day: "I will not undertake to cure this, when in my own house there is no bread or clothing! You shall not make me ruler of the people."
8 כִּי כָשְׁלָה יְרוּשָׁלִַם וִיהוּדָה נָפָל כִּי־לְשֹׁונָם וּמַעַלְלֵיהֶם אֶל־יְהוָה לַמְרֹות עֵנֵי כְבֹודֹו8 Jerusalem is crumbling, Judah is falling; for their speech and their deeds are before the LORD, a provocation in the sight of his majesty.
9 הַכָּרַת פְּנֵיהֶם עָנְתָה בָּם וְחַטָּאתָם כִּסְדֹם הִגִּידוּ לֹא כִחֵדוּ אֹוי לְנַפְשָׁם כִּי־גָמְלוּ לָהֶם רָעָה9 Their very look bears witness against them; their sin like Sodom they vaunt, They hide it not. Woe to them! they deal out evil to themselves.
10 אִמְרוּ צַדִּיק כִּי־טֹוב כִּי־פְרִי מַעַלְלֵיהֶם יֹאכֵלוּ10 Happy the just, for it will be well with them, the fruit of their works they will eat.
11 אֹוי לְרָשָׁע רָע כִּי־גְמוּל יָדָיו יֵעָשֶׂה לֹּו11 Woe to the wicked man! All goes ill, with the work of his hands he will be repaid.
12 עַמִּי נֹגְשָׂיו מְעֹולֵל וְנָשִׁים מָשְׁלוּ בֹו עַמִּי מְאַשְּׁרֶיךָ מַתְעִים וְדֶרֶךְ אֹרְחֹתֶיךָ בִּלֵּעוּ׃ ס12 My people--a babe in arms will be their tyrant, and women will rule them! O my people, your leaders mislead, they destroy the paths you should follow.
13 נִצָּב לָרִיב יְהוָה וְעֹמֵד לָדִין עַמִּים13 The LORD rises to accuse, standing to try his people.
14 יְהוָה בְּמִשְׁפָּט יָבֹוא עִם־זִקְנֵי עַמֹּו וְשָׂרָיו וְאַתֶּם בִּעַרְתֶּם הַכֶּרֶם גְּזֵלַת הֶעָנִי בְּבָתֵּיכֶם14 The Lord enters into judgment with his people's elders and princes: It is you who have devoured the vineyard; the loot wrested from the poor is in your houses.
15 [מַלָּכֶם כ] (מַּה ־לָּכֶם ק) תְּדַכְּאוּ עַמִּי וּפְנֵי עֲנִיִּים תִּטְחָנוּ נְאֻם־אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה צְבָאֹות׃ ס15 What do you mean by crushing my people, and grinding down the poor when they look to you? says the Lord, the GOD of hosts.
16 וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה יַעַן כִּי גָבְהוּ בְּנֹות צִיֹּון וַתֵּלַכְנָה [נְטוֹּות כ] (נְטוּיֹות ק) גָּרֹון וּמְשַׂקְּרֹות עֵינָיִם הָלֹוךְ וְטָפֹף תֵּלַכְנָה וּבְרַגְלֵיהֶם תְּעַכַּסְנָה16 The LORD said: Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with necks outstretched Ogling and mincing as they go, their anklets tinkling with every step,
17 וְשִׂפַּח אֲדֹנָי קָדְקֹד בְּנֹות צִיֹּון וַיהוָה פָּתְהֵן יְעָרֶה׃ ס17 The Lord shall cover the scalps of Zion's daughters with scabs, and the LORD shall bare their heads.
18 בַּיֹּום הַהוּא יָסִיר אֲדֹנָי אֵת תִּפְאֶרֶת הָעֲכָסִים וְהַשְּׁבִיסִים וְהַשַּׂהֲרֹנִים18 On that day the LORD will do away with the finery of the anklets, sunbursts, and crescents;
19 הַנְּטִיפֹות וְהַשֵּׁירֹות וְהָרְעָלֹות19 the pendants, bracelets, and veils;
20 הַפְּאֵרִים וְהַצְּעָדֹות וְהַקִּשֻּׁרִים וּבָתֵּי הַנֶּפֶשׁ וְהַלְּחָשִׁים20 the headdresses, bangles, cinctures, perfume boxes, and amulets;
21 הַטַּבָּעֹות וְנִזְמֵי הָאָף21 the signet rings, and the nose rings;
22 הַמַּחֲלָצֹות וְהַמַּעֲטָפֹות וְהַמִּטְפָּחֹות וְהָחֲרִיטִים22 the court dresses, wraps, cloaks, and purses;
23 וְהַגִּלְיֹנִים וְהַסְּדִינִים וְהַצְּנִיפֹות וְהָרְדִידִים23 the mirrors, linen tunics, turbans, and shawls.
24 וְהָיָה תַחַת בֹּשֶׂם מַק יִהְיֶה וְתַחַת חֲגֹורָה נִקְפָּה וְתַחַת מַעֲשֶׂה מִקְשֶׁה קָרְחָה וְתַחַת פְּתִיגִיל מַחֲגֹרֶת שָׂק כִּי־תַחַת יֹפִי24 Instead of perfume there will be stench, instead of the girdle, a rope, And for the coiffure, baldness; for the rich gown, a sackcloth skirt. Then, instead of beauty:
25 מְתַיִךְ בַּחֶרֶב יִפֹּלוּ וּגְבוּרָתֵךְ בַּמִּלְחָמָה25 Your men will fall by the sword, and your champions, in war;
26 וְאָנוּ וְאָבְלוּ פְּתָחֶיהָ וְנִקָּתָה לָאָרֶץ תֵּשֵׁב26 Her gates will lament and mourn, as the city sits desolate on the ground.
