Young's Literal Translation
“
The sin of Judah is written with an
iron stylus
, engraved
with a diamond point
on the tablets
of their hearts
and on the horns of their
altars .
The sin of Judah is written with a
pen
of
iron, With the
point
of
a diamond ,
Graven
on the tablet
of their heart,
And on the horns of your
altars ,
Even
their children
remember their altars and Asherah
poles
by the green trees
and
on
the high hills.
As
their sons
remember their altars and their
shrines,
By the green tree,
by
the high hills.
O My mountain in the countryside
, I
will
give
over
your
wealth
and
all your
treasures as
plunder
, because
of
the
sin
of
your
high places ,
within
all your
borders.
O My mountain in the field
--
thy
strength
, All thy
treasures --
for
a
prey
I
give
, Thy
high places for
sin
in
all thy
borders.
And you
yourself
will
relinquish
the
inheritance that I gave you.
I will
enslave
you
to your
enemies in a land that you
do
not know
, for you
have kindled My
anger ;
it will
burn forever
. ”
And thou
hast
let
go
--
even
through
thyself,
Of
thine
inheritance that I gave to
thee,
And
I have
caused
thee
to serve
thine
enemies ,
In a land that thou
hast
not known
, For a
fire
ye
have kindled in
Mine
anger ,
Unto
the
age
it doth
burn.
This
is
what
the
LORD
says
: “
Cursed is the man who trusts
in mankind
, who
makes
the
flesh his strength
and turns
his
heart
from the
LORD
.
Thus
said
Jehovah
: Cursed `
is '
the man who doth
trust
in man
, And
hath
made
flesh his arm,
And from Jehovah
whose
heart
turneth
.
He will
be
like
a shrub
in the
desert ;
he
will
not see when prosperity
comes.
He
will
dwell
in
the
parched places of
the
desert,
in a salt land where
no
one
lives
.
And
he hath
been
as
a naked
thing
in a
desert ,
And
doth
not see when good
cometh,
And
hath
inhabited
parched places in a wilderness,
A
salt land ,
and
not
inhabited
.
But
blessed is the man who trusts
in the
LORD
, whose confidence is
in
Him
.
Blessed `
is '
the man who trusteth
in Jehovah
, And
whose confidence hath
been
Jehovah
.
He
is
like
a tree planted by the
waters that
sends
out
its
roots toward
the
stream.
It
does
not fear
when the
heat comes
, and its
leaves
are
always
green .
It
does
not
worry
in a year of drought
, nor does
it
cease to
produce
fruit.
And
hath
been
as
a tree planted by waters ,
And
by
a
rivulet
he
sendeth
forth
his
roots ,
And
he
doth
not see
when heat cometh
, And his
leaf
hath
been
green ,
And
in a year of dearth
he
is
not
sorrowful
, Nor doth
he
cease from
making
fruit.
The heart is
deceitful
above all things and beyond
cure.
Who can
understand
it?
Crooked
`is'
the heart above all things ,
And it
`is'
incurable
--
who doth
know
it?
I ,
the
LORD,
search the heart ;
I
examine
the mind
to reward
a
man
according to his way, by
what
his deeds
deserve
.
I Jehovah
do
search the heart ,
try
the reins,
Even
to give
to
each
according to his way, According
to
the
fruit
of
his doings
.
Like
a partridge hatching eggs
it
did
not lay
is the
man
who
makes
a
fortune
unjustly.
In the middle
of his days his
riches
will
desert
him
, and in the
end he will
be
the
fool. ”
A partridge hatching ,
and
not bringing
forth,
`
Is '
one
making
wealth,
and
not
by
right,
In the midst
of his days he
doth
forsake
it
, And in his
latter
end --
he is
a
fool.
A glorious
throne ,
exalted
from the beginning, is
the place of our sanctuary .
A throne of
honour
on
high
from the beginning, The place of our sanctuary ,
O
LORD,
the hope of Israel, all who
abandon
You
will
be
put
to
shame.
All
who
turn
away
will
be
written
in the dust
, for they have abandoned
the
LORD
, the
fountain of living water
.
The hope of Israel `is'
Jehovah
, All forsaking
Thee
are
ashamed,
And
`My
apostates'
in the earth
are
written
, For they have forsaken
Jehovah
, A
fountain of living waters
.
Heal me, O LORD
, and I will
be
healed ;
save me, and I will
be
saved, for You
are
my praise.
Heal me, O Jehovah
, and I am
healed ,
Save me, and I am
saved, for my praise `art'
Thou
.
Behold
, they keep
saying to
me ,
“
Where is the word of the
LORD
? Let it come now!”
Lo
, they are
saying unto
me :
`
Where `
is '
the word of Jehovah
? pray,
let it come .'
But
I have
not run
away
from being
Your
shepherd;
I have not desired the
day
of
despair.
You
know
that
the utterance
of my lips was
spoken
in
Your
presence.
And
I hastened
not from feeding
after
Thee,
And
the
desperate
day
I have not desired ,
Thou
--
Thou
hast
known,
The produce
of my lips ,
before
Thy
face
it
hath
been,
Do
not become
a
terror
to me ;
You
are
my refuge
in the
day of disaster
.
Be
not Thou
to me for
a
terror,
My hope
`art'
Thou
in a
day of evil
.
Let my persecutors
be put
to
shame
, but
do
not
let me be put
to
shame.
Let them be terrified
, but
do
not
let me be terrified.
Bring upon
them the
day of disaster
and shatter
them
with double
destruction.
Let my pursuers
be ashamed
, and
let not
me be ashamed
--
me!
Let them be affrighted
, and
let not
me be affrighted
--
me!
Bring in
on
them a
day of evil,
And a
second
time
`
with '
destruction destroy
them
.
This
is
what
the
LORD
said to
me: “
Go and stand
at
the gate of the people, through
which the
kings of Judah go
in and out ;
and stand
at
all the
other
gates of Jerusalem .
Thus
said Jehovah
unto
me: `
Go ,
and thou
hast
stood
in
the gate of the sons
of
the
people, by
which kings of Judah come
in ,
and by
which
they
go
out ,
and in
all gates of Jerusalem ,
Say
to
them ,
‘
Hear the
word of the
LORD
, O
kings of Judah, all people
of
Judah and Jerusalem who enter
through
these gates .
and
thou
hast
said
unto
them :
Hear a
word of Jehovah
, ye
kings of Judah, and
all Judah ,
and all
inhabitants
of
Jerusalem ,
who are
coming
in
by
these gates ,
This
is
what
the
LORD
says:
Take heed for
yourselves ;
do
not carry
a load
or
bring
it through
the gates of Jerusalem on
the
Sabbath
day
.
Thus
said
Jehovah,
Take ye
heed to
yourselves ,
And
ye
bear
not a burden
on
the
day
of
rest,
Nor
have
ye
brought
`
it '
in
by
the gates of Jerusalem.
You
must
not
carry
a
load
out of
your houses or
do
any
work
on the Sabbath
day, but
you
must
keep
the Sabbath
day holy
, just
as I commanded your forefathers
.
Nor
do
ye
take
out a
burden
from
your houses on the day of
rest
, Yea,
any
work
ye
do
not
do,
And
ye
have
sanctified
the day of
rest
, As I have
commanded your fathers
.
Yet
they would
not listen
or
incline
their ear, but
they stiffened
their necks
and would
not listen
or
receive My
discipline
.
And
they have
not hearkened
nor
inclined
their ear, And
they stiffen
their neck
not
to
hear,
And not to
receive instruction
.
If,
however
, you
listen
carefully
to
Me, says
the
LORD
, and
bring no
load
through
the gates of this city on the Sabbath
day, and keep
the Sabbath
day holy
, and
do no
work
on
it ,
And
it
hath
been
, if
ye
certainly
hearken
unto
Me, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, So
as
not
to
bring in
a
burden
By
the gates of this city on the day of
rest
, And to
sanctify
the day of
rest
, So
as
not
to
do in
it any
work
--
then kings
and
princes
will
enter
through
the gates of this city .
They
will
sit
on the throne of David, riding in chariots
and on horses with
their officials
, along
with
the men
of Judah and the
residents
of Jerusalem, and this city will
be
inhabited
forever
.
Then entered
by
the gates of this city have
kings
and
princes,
Sitting
on the throne of David, Riding in a
chariot,
and on horses ,
They,
and
their princes
, the man
of Judah ,
And inhabitants
of Jerusalem, And this city hath
remained
to
the
age
.
And people
will
come from the
cities of Judah and the
places
around
Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, and from the foothills
, the hill country, and the Negev
, bringing burnt offerings
and sacrifices
, grain
offerings
and frankincense, and thank
offerings
to the house of the
LORD
.
And they
have
come in
from cities of Judah ,
And from
suburbs
of
Jerusalem, And
from the land of Benjamin, And from the low
country
, And
from
the hill -
country, and from
the south
, Bringing in
burnt -offering,
and sacrifice
, And present,
and
frankincense, And bringing
praise
`
to '
the house of Jehovah
.
But
if you
do not listen
to
Me to keep
the Sabbath
day holy
by
not carrying
a load
while
entering
the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath
day, then I will
kindle
an
unquenchable
fire in its gates to
consume
the citadels
of Jerusalem .’”
And
if ye
do not hearken
unto
me to sanctify
the day of
rest,
And
so
as
not to
bear
a burden,
And
to
come
in
at
the gates of Jerusalem on the day of
rest
, Then I have
kindled
a
fire in its gates ,
And
it
hath
consumed
the high
places
of Jerusalem ,
And
it
is
not
quenched!'
