YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Then
the
word of the
LORD
came
to
me, saying ,
And
there
is
a
word of Jehovah
unto
me, saying :
“You
must
not marry
or
have
sons or
daughters in this place. ”
Thou
dost
not take
to
thee
a
wife,
Nor
hast
thou
sons and
daughters in this place.
For this
is
what
the
LORD
says
concerning
the sons and daughters born in this place, and the
mothers who
bore
them, and the
fathers who
fathered
them in this land:
For thus
said
Jehovah,
Of
the sons and of
the
daughters who
are
born in this place, And of
their
mothers --
those
bearing
them, And of
their
fathers --
those
begetting
them in this land:
“
They will
die from
deadly
diseases.
They will
not be
mourned
or
buried, but
will
lie
like
dung on the ground .
They will
be
finished
off
by sword and famine, and their corpses
will
become
food
for the birds
of the air
and beasts
of the earth. ”
Of
painful
deaths
they die ,
They are
not lamented,
nor
are
they
buried, For
dung on the face
of
the
ground they are,
And
by sword and by
famine are
consumed
, And their carcase
hath
been
for food
To
the fowl
of the heavens,
And to
the
beast
of the earth.
Indeed,
this
is
what
the
LORD
says
: “
Do not enter a
house where
there
is
a funeral
meal.
Do
not
go to mourn
or
show
sympathy
, for I have removed from this people My
peace
, My
loving
devotion
, and My
compassion,”
declares
the LORD
.
For
thus
said
Jehovah
: Do not enter the
house of
a mourning-feast,
Nor
go to lament
nor
bemoan
for
them
, For I have removed My
peace
from this people, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, The
kindness
and the mercies
.
“Both
great and small will
die
in this land .
They will
not be
buried or
mourned
, nor will
anyone
cut himself or
shave
his
head
for them.
And
died
have
great and small in this land ,
They are
not buried, and
none
lament
for
them,
Nor doth
any
cut himself ,
nor
become
bald
for them.
No
food
will
be
offered
to comfort those
who
mourn
the dead ;
not
even
a cup of consolation
will
be
given
for the
loss
of
a
father or
mother.
Nor
do
they
deal
out
to them
for
mourning,
To
comfort him
concerning
the dead ,
Nor
cause
them
to
drink
a cup of consolations
For his
father and
for
his
mother.
You
must
not
enter
a house where
there
is
feasting
and
sit down
with them to eat and drink .
A house of
banqueting
thou
dost
not
enter,
To
sit with them ,
to eat and to
drink ,
For this
is
what
the
LORD
of Hosts, the
God of Israel ,
says
: I am going
to remove
from this place, before your very
eyes and in your days, the sounds
of joy and
gladness
, the voices
of the bride
and
bridegroom.
For thus
said
Jehovah
of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo,
I am causing
to cease
from this place, Before your eyes ,
and in your days, The voice
of joy, and
the voice
of rejoicing,
The voice
of
bridegroom and
voice
of
bride
.
When you
tell
these
people all these things
, they will
ask
you
, ‘Why
has
the
LORD
pronounced
all this great disaster
against
us
? What is our guilt?
What is
the
sin that we have committed
against the
LORD
our God? ’
And
it
hath
come
to
pass
when thou
declarest
to
this
people all these words
, and
they have
said
unto
thee
, `For
what
hath
Jehovah
spoken
against
us
all this great evil
? yea,
what `
is '
our iniquity,
and
what our
sin ,
that we have sinned
against Jehovah
our God? '
Then you
are
to
answer
them: ‘It
is
because your fathers have forsaken Me, declares
the
LORD
, and followed
other gods, and served
and
worshiped
them .
They abandoned
Me and did
not
keep
My instruction.
Then thou
hast
said
unto
them: Because that
your fathers have forsaken Me, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, And go
after
other gods, and serve
them ,
And
they bow
themselves
to
them,
And
Me have
forsaken,
and My law
not
kept,
And
you
have done more
evil than
your fathers .
See
how
each of
you
follows
the stubbornness of his evil heart instead
of
obeying
Me.
Ye
also
have done evil above
your fathers ,
And
lo,
ye
are
walking
each after
the stubbornness of his evil heart ,
So
as
not
to
hearken
unto
Me.
So
I will
cast you out
of
this land into
a land that neither
you
nor
your fathers have known.
There you
will
serve
other gods day and night, for
I will
show
you no
favor
. ’
And
I have
cast you from
off
this land ,
On
to
a land that ye
have
not
known,
Ye
and
your fathers ,
And
ye
have served
there other gods by
day and by
night, Where
I do
not
give
to
you grace
.
Yet
behold
, the
days are coming, declares
the
LORD,
when
they
will
no
longer
say
, ‘As
surely
as
the
LORD
lives
, who brought the
Israelites
up out of the land of Egypt .’
Therefore
, lo,
days are coming, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, And
it
is
not
said
any
more:
`Jehovah
liveth
, who brought up The
sons
of
Israel
out of the land of Egypt ,'
Instead
they
will
say
, ‘As
surely
as
the
LORD
lives
, who brought the
Israelites
up out of the land of the north and all the other
lands to
which
He had
banished
them .’
For
I will
return
them to their land that I gave to their forefathers
.
But
, `Jehovah
liveth
, who brought up The
sons
of
Israel
out of the land of the north ,
And out
of
all the lands whither
He drove
them ,'
And
I have
brought
them back
to their land ,
That I gave to their fathers
.
But
for
now
I will
send
for many fishermen
, declares
the
LORD
, and they will
catch
them .
After that
I will
send for many hunters, and they will
hunt
them down
on
every mountain and hill, even
from the
clefts
of the rocks.
Lo,
I am
sending
for many fishers
, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, And they have
fished
them ,
And
after this
I send for many hunters, And they have
hunted
them from
off
every mountain ,
And from
off
every
hill, and
from holes
of the rocks.
For My
eyes are on
all their ways .
They are
not hidden from My face, and
their guilt
is
not
concealed from My
eyes.
For Mine
eyes `
are '
upon
all their ways ,
They have
not been
hidden from My face, Nor
hath
their iniquity
been
concealed from before
Mine
eyes.
And I will
first repay
them
double
their iniquity and their sin, because they
have
defiled
My land with the carcasses
of their detestable idols
, and
they
have filled My
inheritance with
their
abominations
. ”
And I have
recompensed
a
first --
A
second
time
--
their iniquity and their sin, Because of
their
polluting
My land ,
With the carcase
of their detestable things
, Yea,
their
abominable
things
have filled Mine
inheritance.
O LORD
, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in the
day of distress
, the
nations will
come to
You
from the ends of the
earth, and they
will
say, “
Our fathers inherited
nothing
but
lies
, worthless
idols
of
no
benefit
at
all
.
O Jehovah
, my strength ,
and my fortress, And
my refuge in a
day of adversity
, Unto
Thee
nations do
come from the ends of earth, And say, Only
falsehood
did
our fathers inherit
, Vanity,
and
none
among
them
is
profitable
.
Can
man make gods
for himself ?
Such
are
not
gods !”
Doth
man make for himself gods ,
And
they
--
no
gods?
“
Therefore behold
, I will
inform
them ,
and
this time I will
make
them know My power
and My might ;
then
they will
know
that My name is the
LORD.
Therefore, lo,
I am
causing
them to
know
at
this time ,
I cause
them to
know My hand
and My might ,
And
they have
known
that My name `
is '
Jehovah!
