Isaiah (ישעיה) - Isaia 33

STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	NEW JERUSALEM
1 רַנְּנוּ צַדִּיקִים בַּיהוָה לַיְשָׁרִים נָאוָה תְהִלָּה	1 Shout for joy, you upright; praise comes wel from the honest.
2 הֹודוּ לַיהוָה בְּכִנֹּור בְּנֵבֶל עָשֹׂור זַמְּרוּ־לֹו	2 Give thanks to Yahweh on the lyre, play for him on the ten-stringed lyre.
3 שִׁירוּ־לֹו שִׁיר חָדָשׁ הֵיטִיבוּ נַגֵּן בִּתְרוּעָה	3 Sing to him a new song, make sweet music for your cry of victory.
4 כִּי־יָשָׁר דְּבַר־יְהוָה וְכָל־מַעֲשֵׂהוּ בֶּאֱמוּנָה	4 The word of Yahweh is straightforward, al he does springs from his constancy.
5 אֹהֵב צְדָקָה וּמִשְׁפָּט חֶסֶד יְהוָה מָלְאָה הָאָרֶץ	5 He loves uprightness and justice; the faithful love of Yahweh fil s the earth.
6 בִּדְבַר יְהוָה שָׁמַיִם נַעֲשׂוּ וּבְרוּחַ פִּיו כָּל־צְבָאָם	6 By the word of Yahweh the heavens were made, by the breath of his mouth all their array.
7 כֹּנֵס כַּנֵּד מֵי הַיָּם נֹתֵן בְּאֹצָרֹות תְּהֹומֹות	7 He collects the waters of the sea like a dam, he stores away the abyss in his treasure-house.
8 יִירְאוּ מֵיְהוָה כָּל־הָאָרֶץ מִמֶּנּוּ יָגוּרוּ כָּל־יֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל	8 Let the whole earth fear Yahweh, let al who dwel in the world revere him;
9 כִּי הוּא אָמַר וַיֶּהִי הוּא־צִוָּה וַיַּעֲמֹד	9 for, the moment he spoke, it was so, no sooner had he commanded, than there it stood!
10 יְהוָה הֵפִיר עֲצַת־גֹּויִם הֵנִיא מַחְשְׁבֹות עַמִּים	10 Yahweh thwarts the plans of nations, frustrates the counsels of peoples;
11 עֲצַת יְהוָה לְעֹולָם תַּעֲמֹד מַחְשְׁבֹות לִבֹּו לְדֹר וָדֹר	11 but Yahweh's own plan stands firm for ever, his heart's counsel from age to age.
12 אַשְׁרֵי הַגֹּוי אֲשֶׁר־יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו הָעָם ׀ בָּחַר לְנַחֲלָה לֹו	12 How blessed the nation whose God is Yahweh, the people he has chosen as his heritage.
13 מִשָּׁמַיִם הִבִּיט יְהוָה רָאָה אֶת־כָּל־בְּנֵי הָאָדָם	13 From heaven Yahweh looks down, he sees al the children of Adam,
14 מִמְּכֹון־שִׁבְתֹּו הִשְׁגִּיחַ אֶל כָּל־יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ	14 from the place where he sits he watches al who dwel on the earth;
15 הַיֹּצֵר יַחַד לִבָּם הַמֵּבִין אֶל־כָּל־מַעֲשֵׂיהֶם	15 he alone moulds their hearts, he understands al they do.
16 אֵין־הַמֶּלֶךְ נֹושָׁע בְּרָב־חָיִל גִּבֹּור לֹא־יִנָּצֵל בְּרָב־כֹּחַ	16 A large army wil not keep a king safe, nor his strength save a warrior's life;
17 שֶׁקֶר הַסּוּס לִתְשׁוּעָה וּבְרֹב חֵילֹו לֹא יְמַלֵּט	17 it is delusion to rely on a horse for safety, for all its power it cannot save.
18 הִנֵּה עֵין יְהוָה אֶל־יְרֵאָיו לַמְיַחֲלִים לְחַסְדֹּו	18 But see how Yahweh watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his faithful love,
19 לְהַצִּיל מִמָּוֶת נַפְשָׁם וּלְחַיֹּותָם בָּרָעָב	19 to rescue them from death and keep them alive in famine.
20 נַפְשֵׁנוּ חִכְּתָה לַיהוָה עֶזְרֵנוּ וּמָגִנֵּנוּ הוּא	20 We are waiting for Yahweh; he is our help and our shield,
21 כִּי־בֹו יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ כִּי בְשֵׁם קָדְשֹׁו בָטָחְנוּ	21 for in him our heart rejoices, in his holy name we trust.
22 יְהִי־חַסְדְּךָ יְהוָה עָלֵינוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר יִחַלְנוּ לָךְ	22 Yahweh, let your faithful love rest on us, as our hope has rested in you.
23 נִטְּשׁוּ חֲבָלָיִךְ בַּל־יְחַזְּקוּ כֵן־תָּרְנָם בַּל־פָּרְשׂוּ נֵס אָז חֻלַּק עַד־שָׁלָל מַרְבֶּה פִּסְחִים בָּזְזוּ בַז
24 וּבַל־יֹאמַר שָׁכֵן חָלִיתִי הָעָם הַיֹּשֵׁב בָּהּ נְשֻׂא עָוֹן
