King James Version
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
The righteous perisheth
, and no
man
layeth
it to heart :
and merciful
men are taken
away
, none
considering that the
righteous
is
taken
away
from the evil to
come
.
The righteous hath
perished
, And there
is
none
laying
`
it '
to heart ,
And men of
kindness
are gathered
, Without
any
considering that from the face
of
evil Gathered
is
the
righteous
one
.
He shall
enter
into peace :
they shall
rest in
their beds, each one
walking
in
his
uprightness
.
He entereth
into peace ,
they rest on
their beds, `
Each '
is
going
straightforward
.
But
draw
near hither, ye
sons of the
sorceress, the
seed of the
adulterer and
the
whore
.
And
ye,
come
near hither, O
sons of a
sorceress, seed of an
adulterer ,
Even
thou
dost
commit
whoredom
.
Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make
ye a
wide
mouth ,
and
draw
out
the tongue? are ye
not children of transgression ,
a seed of
falsehood.
Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom enlarge
ye the
mouth ?
Prolong
ye
the tongue? Are not ye
children of transgression ?
a false
seed ?
Enflaming
yourselves
with
idols
under every green tree, slaying
the children in the
valleys under the
clifts
of the rocks ?
Who
are
inflamed
among
oaks,
under every green tree, Slaughtering
the children in valleys ,
Under clefts
of the rocks .
Among the smooth stones
of the
stream
is thy portion ;
they
, they are thy lot :
even
to them hast
thou poured a
drink
offering
, thou hast offered
a meat
offering.
Should
I
receive
comfort
in
these?
Among the smooth things
of a
brook
`
is '
thy portion, They --
they
`
are '
thy lot ,
Also
to them thou hast
poured out
an
oblation
, Thou hast caused
a present
to
ascend,
For
these things
am
I
comforted
?
Upon
a lofty
and
high
mountain hast
thou set thy bed:
even
thither wentest
thou up to offer
sacrifice.
On
a mountain ,
high
and
exalted,
Thou hast
set thy couch,
Also
thither thou hast
gone
up to make
a
sacrifice.
Behind the doors
also
and the posts
hast
thou set up thy remembrance:
for thou hast discovered
thyself
to
another
than
me
, and art
gone
up ;
thou hast enlarged thy bed
, and made
thee
a
covenant with
them ;
thou lovedst
their bed
where
thou sawest it.
And
behind the door,
and the post,
Thou hast
set up thy memorial,
For from
Me
thou hast removed
, and goest
up ,
Thou hast enlarged thy couch
, And dost
covenant for
thyself
among
them ,
Thou hast
loved
their couch,
the
station
thou sawest ,
And thou
wentest
to the king with
ointment, and didst
increase
thy perfumes, and didst
send
thy
messengers
far
off, and didst
debase
thyself even
unto hell
.
And goest
joyfully
to the king in
ointment, And dost
multiply
thy perfumes, And sendest
thine
ambassadors
afar
off, And humblest
thyself unto Sheol
.
Thou
art
wearied
in the greatness of thy way ;
yet
saidst
thou not
, There
is
no
hope:
thou hast found
the life of thine
hand ;
therefore thou wast
not grieved
.
In the greatness of thy way thou hast
laboured
, Thou hast not
said,
`It
is
desperate.'
The life of thy
hand thou
hast
found,
Therefore thou hast
not been
sick
.
And of whom hast thou been afraid or
feared
, that thou hast
lied
, and hast not remembered me,
nor
laid it to thy heart ?
have
not I held
my
peace
even of old ,
and thou fearest me
not?
And of whom hast thou been afraid, and
fearest,
That thou liest
, and Me
hast not remembered ?
Thou
hast
not
laid `
it '
to thy heart ,
Am
not I silent,
even from
of old ?
And Me
thou fearest not?
I will
declare thy righteousness, and thy works ;
for
they shall
not profit thee.
I declare thy righteousness, and thy works ,
And
they do
not profit thee.
When thou criest, let thy companies
deliver thee ;
but
the
wind
shall
carry
them
all away ;
vanity
shall
take them:
but
he
that
putteth
his
trust
in me shall
possess
the land, and shall
inherit
my holy mountain ;
When thou criest, let thy gatherings
deliver thee ,
And
all of
them
carry
away doth
wind,
Take away
doth
vanity,
And
whoso
is
trusting
in Me inheriteth
the land, And doth
possess
My holy mountain .
And shall
say
, Cast
ye
up, cast
ye
up, prepare the
way, take
up
the
stumblingblock
out of the way of my people.
And he
hath
said
, `Raise
up, raise
up, prepare a
way, Lift
a
stumbling-block
out of the way of My people. '
For thus saith
the high and lofty
One that
inhabiteth
eternity, whose
name
is
Holy ;
I
dwell
in the high and holy place, with him
also
that
is
of
a
contrite
and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the
contrite
ones .
For thus said
the high and exalted
One ,
Inhabiting
eternity, and
holy `is'
His
name:
`
In the high and holy place I
dwell
, And
with the
bruised
and humble of
spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of bruised
ones ,'
For I
will
not contend
for ever ,
neither
will
I be
always
wroth :
for the spirit should
fail
before me, and the souls which
I have made.
For ,
not to
the
age
do
I
strive,
nor
for ever am
I wroth ,
For the spirit from
before Me is
feeble
, And the souls I have made.
For the iniquity of his covetousness
was
I wroth, and smote
him:
I hid
me
, and was
wroth, and he went
on frowardly
in the way of his heart.
For the iniquity of his dishonest
gain,
I have
been
wroth, and I smite
him
, Hiding
--
and am
wroth, And he goeth
on turning
back
in the way of his heart.
I have seen his
ways
, and will
heal him :
I will
lead him also
, and restore
comforts unto
him and to his mourners
.
His
ways
I have seen, and I
heal him ,
yea,
I lead him, And recompense
comforts to
him and to his mourning
ones
.
I
create
the fruit of the lips ;
Peace, peace to him
that
is
far off, and to him
that
is
near, saith
the
LORD;
and I will
heal
him.
Producing
the fruit of the lips ,
`
Peace, peace ,'
to the
far off, and to the
near, And I have
healed
him ,
said
Jehovah
.
But
the wicked are like
the troubled
sea, when
it
cannot
rest, whose
waters cast up
mire
and dirt
.
And
the wicked `
are '
as
the driven
out
sea, For
to
rest it
is
not
able
, And
its
waters cast out
filth
and mire
.
There is no peace, saith
my God, to the wicked .
There is no peace, said
my God, to the wicked !
