YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Woe
to them
that
devise
iniquity, and work
evil upon
their beds !
when
the morning
is
light ,
they practise
it, because
it
is
in
the
power
of
their hand.
Wo
`
to '
those
devising
iniquity, And working
evil on
their beds ,
In
the light of
the
morning
they do
it, For
their hand is
--
to
God
.
And they covet
fields, and take
them
by
violence;
and houses, and take
them
away:
so
they oppress
a man and his house, even a man and his heritage
.
And they have
desired
fields, And they
have
taken
violently,
And houses, and they have
taken
away,
And
have
oppressed
a man and his house, Even a man and his inheritance
.
Therefore thus saith
the
LORD;
Behold
, against this family do
I
devise
an
evil, from which ye shall
not remove your necks ;
neither
shall
ye
go
haughtily:
for this
time is
evil.
Therefore ,
thus said
Jehovah:
Lo
, I
am
devising
against this family evil, From which ye do
not remove your necks ,
Nor
walk
loftily,
for a
time of
evil it
`is'
.
In that day shall
one take up a
parable
against
you, and lament
with
a doleful
lamentation
, and
say
, We be
utterly spoiled :
he
hath
changed
the portion of my people :
how hath
he removed
it
from
me! turning
away
he
hath
divided
our fields.
In that day doth
`
one '
take up for
you a
simile
, And he
hath
wailed
a wailing
of
wo
, He
hath
said
, We have
been
utterly spoiled ,
The portion of my people He
doth
change,
How doth
He move
toward
me! To
the
backslider
our fields He
apportioneth
.
Therefore thou shalt
have
none
that
shall
cast
a cord
by lot in the congregation
of the
LORD
.
Therefore ,
thou hast
no
caster
of
a line
by lot In the assembly
of Jehovah
.
Prophesy
ye not ,
say
they to
them
that
prophesy :
they shall
not prophesy to them
, that
they
shall
not take
shame.
Ye do
not prophesy
--
they do
prophesy ,
They do
not prophesy to these
, It
doth
not remove
shame.
O
thou
that
art
named
the house of Jacob, is
the spirit of the
LORD
straitened
? are these his doings? do not my words do
good
to
him
that walketh
uprightly?
Doth
the house of Jacob say
, `Hath
the Spirit of Jehovah
been
shortened
? Are these His doings? '
Do not My words benefit
the
people
that is
walking
uprightly?
Even
of
late
my people is
risen
up
as
an enemy :
ye
pull
off
the
robe
with
the garment from them
that
pass
by securely
as
men
averse
from war.
And
yesterday
My people for
an enemy doth
raise
himself
up,
From
the outer
garment the
honourable
ornament
ye
strip
off,
From the
confident
passers
by ,
Ye
who
are
turning
back
from war.
The women of my people have
ye cast out from their
pleasant
houses;
from their
children
have
ye taken
away my glory
for
ever
.
The women of My people ye cast out from its
delightful
house,
From its
sucklings
ye take
away My honour
to
the
age
.
Arise
ye,
and depart;
for this is not your
rest :
because
it
is
polluted
, it shall
destroy
you
, even
with
a
sore
destruction
.
Rise
and go,
for this `
is '
not the
rest, Because
of
uncleanness
it doth
corrupt
, And
corruption
is
powerful
.
If a
man
walking
in
the spirit
and falsehood do
lie,
saying,
I will
prophesy unto
thee of wine and of strong drink ;
he shall
even
be
the prophet of this people .
If one
is
going
`with'
the wind,
And `with'
falsehood hath
lied:
`
I prophesy to
thee of wine ,
and of strong drink ,'
He hath
been
the prophet of this people !
I will
surely assemble
, O Jacob, all of thee ;
I will
surely gather
the remnant of Israel ;
I
will
put
them
together as the sheep
of Bozrah, as the
flock
in the midst of their
fold:
they
shall
make
great
noise by
reason
of
the
multitude
of men
.
I do
surely gather
thee
, O Jacob, all of thee ,
I surely bring
together
the remnant of Israel ,
Together I
do
set
it
as the flock
of Bozrah, As a
drove
in the midst of its
pasture,
It
maketh
a
noise because
of man
.
The breaker is
come
up
before them :
they have broken up
, and
have
passed
through the gate, and
are
gone
out by
it :
and their king shall
pass
before them, and the
LORD
on
the
head of
them.
Gone
up
hath
the breaker before them ,
They have broken through
, Yea,
they
pass
through the gate, Yea,
they
go
out through
it ,
And pass
on
doth
their king before them, And Jehovah
at
their
head !
