| 1 ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܥܠ ܬܠܬܐ ܚ̈ܘܒܘܗܝ ܕܡܘܐܒ ܘܕܐܪ̈ܒܥܐ ܠܐ ܐܗܦܟ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܥܠ ܕܐܘܩܕܘ ܓܪ̈ܡܘܗܝ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܕܐܕܘܡ ܠܣܝܕܐ | 1 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime: |
| 2 ܐܫܕܪ ܢܘܪܐ ܥܠ ܡܘܐܒ ܘܬܐܟܘܠ ܣܚܪ̈ܬܗ̇ ܕܩܪܝܘܬ ܘܢܡܘܬ ܡܘܐܒ ܒܕܠܘܚܝܐ ܒܩܥܬܐ ܘܒܩܠܐ ܕܫܝܦܘܪܐ | 2 But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kerioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet: |
| 3 ܘܐܘܒܕ ܕܝ̇ܢܐ ܡܢ ܓܘܗ ܘܟܠܗܘܢ ܪ̈ܘܪܒܢܘܗܝ ܐܚܪܘܒ ܥܡܗ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ | 3 And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the LORD. |
| 4 ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܥܠ ܬܠܬܐ ܚ̈ܘܒܘܗܝ ܕܝܗܘܕܐ ܘܕܐܪ̈ܒܥܐ ܠܐ ܐܗܦܟ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܥܠ ܕܐܣܠܝܘ ܢܡܘܣܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܦܘܩ̈ܕܢܘܗܝ ܠܐ ܢܛܪܘ ܘܐ̈ܛܥܝ ܐܢܘܢ ܣܪ̈ܝܩܬܐ ܕܐܙܠܘ ܐ̈ܒܗܝܗܘܢ ܒܬܪܗܝܢ | 4 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked: |
| 5 ܐܫܕܪ ܢܘܪܐ ܒܝܗܘܕܐ ܘܬܐܟܘܠ ܣܚܪ̈ܬܗ̇ ܕܐܘܪܫܠܡ | 5 But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem. |
| 6 ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܥܠ ܬܠܬܐ ܚ̈ܘܒܘܗܝ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܘܕܐܪ̈ܒܥܐ ܠܐ ܐܗܦܟ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܥܠ ܕܙܒܢܘ ܠܙܕܝܩܐ ܒܟܣܦܐ ܘܠܡܣܟܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܣ̈ܢܐ | 6 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes; |
| 7 ܕܕܝܫܝܢ ܥܠ ܥܦܪܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܡܩܦܚܝܢ ܠܡܣ̈ܟܢܐ ܘܐܘܪܚܐ ܕܒܝܫ̈ܐ ܨܠܘ ܘܓܒܪܐ ܘܐܒܘܗܝ ܐܙܠܝܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܢܛܢܦܘܢ ܫܡܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܝ | 7 That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the same maid, to profane my holy name: |
| 8 ܘܥܠ ܠܒ̈ܘܫܐ ܚ̈ܒܠܐ ܚܙܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܠ ܓܒ ܟܠ ܡܕܒܚ ܘܚܡܪܐ ܥܬܝܩܐ ܫܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܝܬ ܐ̈ܠܗܝܗܘܢ | 8 And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god. |
| 9 ܘܐܢܐ ܐܘܒܕܬ ܠܐܡܘܪܝܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܡܝܗܘܢ ܕܪܘܡܗ ܐܝܟ ܪܘܡܐ ܕܐܪܙܐ ܘܚܣܝܢ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܒܠܘܛܐ ܐܘܒܕܬ ܦܐܪ̈ܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܠܥܠ ܘܥܩܪ̈ܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܠܬܚܬ | 9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath. |
| 10 ܘܐܢܐ ܐܣܩܬܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܘܕܒܪܬܟܘܢ ܒܡܕܒܪܐ ܐܪ̈ܒܥܝܢ ܫܢܝ̈ܢ ܘܐܝܬܝܬܟܘܢ ܠܐܬܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܠܡܐܪܬ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܐܡܘܪ̈ܝܐ | 10 Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite. |
| 11 ܘܐܩܝܡܬ ܡܢ ܒ̈ܢܝܟܘܢ ܢܒ̈ܝܐ ܘܡܢ ܥܠܝ̈ܡܝܟܘܢ ܢܙܝܪ̈ܐ ܕܠܡܐ ܠܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܝܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܒܢ̈ܝ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ | 11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD. |
| 12 ܘܐܫܩܝܬܘܢ ܠܢܙܝܪ̈ܐ ܚܡܪܐ ܘܠܢܒ̈ܝܐ ܦܩܕܬܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܬܢܒܘܢ | 12 But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not. |
| 13 ܗܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܥܝܩ ܐܢܐ ܬܚܘܬܝܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܥܝܩܐ ܥܓܠܬܐ ܕܡܠܝܐ ܫܒ̈ܠܐ | 13 Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves. |
| 14 ܘܢܐܒܕ ܪܗܛܐ ܡܢ ܩܠܝܠܐ ܘܕܥܫܝܢ ܠܐ ܢܚܡܣܢ ܚܝܠܗ ܘܕܓܢܒܪ ܠܐ ܢܦܨܐ ܢܦܫܗ | 14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself: |
| 15 ܘܩܫܬܐ ܠܐ ܢܩܘܡ ܘܕܩܠܝܠ ܒܪܗܛܗ ܠܐ ܢܬܦܨܐ ܘܦܪܫܐ ܠܐ ܢܫܘܙܒ ܢܦܫܗ | 15 Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself. |
| 16 ܘܕܥܫܝܢ ܠܒܗ ܐܝܟ ܕܓܢܒܪܐ ܥܪܛܠ ܢܥܪܘܩ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܗ̇ܘ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ | 16 And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD. |
