YISRA EL, THE CHOSEN OF YAH VEH
And now hear, O Yaaqov my servant; and Yisra El, whom I chose: ² thus says Yah Veh who worked you and formed you from the belly; who helps you: Awe not, O Yaaqov, my servant; and you, Yeshurun, whom I chose. ³ For I pour water on him who is thirsty, and flowings on the dry: I pour my spirit on your seed and my blessing on your offspring: ⁴ and they sprout between the grass as willows by the water streams. ⁵ One says, I - Yah Veh: and another calls by the name of Yaaqov: and another inscribes with his hand to Yah Veh and by an honorary degree, the name of Yisra El. ⁶ Thus says Yah Veh the Sovereign of Yisra El, and his redeemer Yah Veh Sabaoth; I - the first, and I - the final; and except me, there is no Elohim. ⁷ And who as I, calls and tells it and lines it up for me who set the original people? And those coming, and those to come, tell they them? ⁸ Neither fear, nor frighten: Heard you not ever since, what I told you? You are my witnesses. Is there an Elohah except me? Yes, there is no rock; I know none. ⁹ They who form a sculptile all of them are a waste; and their desires benefit not: and they are their own witnesses; they neither see, nor know to shame. ¹⁰ Who ever formed an el or poured a sculptile that is not beneficial? ¹¹ Behold, all his companions shame: and the engravers are of humanity: they all gather; together they stand: they fear; together they shame. ¹² The engraver of iron works with the ax in the coals and forms with hammers and makes with the force of his arms: yes, he famishes and his force is not: he drinks no water and wearies. ¹³ The engraver of timber spreads his line; he surveys with a stylus; he works with planes: and he surveys with the compass and works after the pattern of a man according to the adornment of humanity; that it settle in the house: ¹⁴ he cuts down cedars; and takes the cypress and the oak which he strengthens for himself among the trees of the forest: he plants an ash, and the downpour nourishes: ¹⁵ and it becomes for humanity to burn: for he takes and heats; yes, he kindles and bakes bread: yes, he works an el and prostrates; he makes a sculptile, and prostrates thereto: ¹⁶ he burns half in the fire; with half he eats flesh; he roasts a roast, and satiates: yes, he heats, and says, Aha, I heat up; I see the flame: ¹⁷ and of what survives, he works an el - his sculptile: he prostrates thereto - prostrates and prays thereto, and says, Rescue me; for you are my el. ¹⁸ They neither know nor discern: for he daubs their eyes from seeing, and their hearts from comprehending: ¹⁹ and no one turns to his heart; there is neither knowledge nor discernment to say, I burn half in the fire; yes, also I bake bread on the coals; I roast flesh and eat: and I work the remnant an abhorrence: I prostrate to the product of a tree. ²⁰ He grazes on ashes: a mocked heart perverts him that he neither rescues his soul, nor says, Is there not a falsehood in my right? ²¹ Remember these, O Yaaqov and Yisra El; for you are my servant: I formed you; you are my servant: O Yisra El, I forget you not. ²² As a thick cloud, I wipe out your rebellions; and, as a thick cloud, your sins: return to me; for I redeem you. ²³ Shout, O you heavens; for Yah Veh worked it: shout, you nethermost earth: break forth into shouting, you mountains; O forest, and every tree therein: for Yah Veh redeems Yaaqov, and adorns himself in Yisra El. ²⁴ Thus says Yah Veh your redeemer - he who formed you from the belly, I - Yah Veh who worked all; who alone spread the heavens; who expanded the earth by myself: ²⁵ who breaks the signs of lies and exposes diviners as mad; who turns the wise backward and follies their knowledge; ²⁶ who raises the word of his servant and shalams the counsel of his angels; who says to Yeru Shalem, You, settle! and to the cities of Yah Hudah, You, build! - and I raise the parched areas: ²⁷ who says to the abyss, Parch! - and I wither your rivers: ²⁸ who says of Koresh my tender, who shalams all my delight: even saying to Yeru Shalem, You, Build! and to the manse, You, Found! ^{\super *}. ^{*found: as in founding a foundation.}

¹³ and he says to Abram, In knowing, know that your seed is a sojourner in a land not theirs: and they serve them; and they humble them four hundred years: ¹⁴ and also that goyim whom they serve - I plead their cause: and thus they come out with great acquisitions. ¹⁵ And you go to your fathers in shalom; - entombed in good grayness: ¹⁶ and in the fourth generation they return here: for the perversity of the Emoriy is not yet at shalom. ¹⁷ And so be it, when the sun sets and it is dusk, behold, a smoking furnace and a flambeau of fire passes between those pieces. ¹⁸ In that day Yah Veh cuts a covenant with Abram, saying, To your seed I gave this land - from the river of Misrayim to the great river - the river Euphrates: ¹⁹ the Qeyniy and the Qenaziy and the Qadmoniy ²⁰ and the Hethiy and the Perizziy and the Rephaim ²¹ and the Emoriy and the Kenaaniy and the Girgashiy and the Yebusiy.

⁷ and I raise my covenant between me and between you and your seed after you in their generations for an eternal covenant, to become Elohim to you and to your seed after you:

⁷ and I raise my covenant between me and between you and your seed after you in their generations for an eternal covenant, to become Elohim to you and to your seed after you: ⁸ and I give to you and to your seed after you the land of your sojournings - all the land of Kenaan for an eternal possession; and I become their Elohim.
COVENANT OF CIRCUMCISION

¹³ and behold, Yah Veh stations himself above it and says, I - Yah Veh Elohim of Abraham your father and Elohim of Yischaq: I give the land whereon you lie to you and to your seed; ¹⁴ and your seed becomes as the dust of the earth and you break forth to the sea and to the east and to the north and to the south: and in you and in your seed all the families of the soil become blessed. ¹⁵ And behold, I am with you and guard you everywhere you go; and return you into this soil; for I leave you not until I work what I word to you.

¹⁹ And Laban goes to shear his flock: and Rachel steals the teraphim of her father;

³⁰ And now, in going, you go; because in yearning, you yearn after the house of your father: But why stole you my elohim?

³² With whomever you find your elohim, lives not! At the face of our brothers recognize what is with me and take it to yourself. - for Yaaqov discerns not that Rachel stole them.

² And Yaaqov says to his household and to all with him, Turn aside the strange elohim among you and purify and change your clothes:

³ And he says, I - El - Elohim of your father: awe not to descend into Misrayim; for there I set of you a great goyim:

¹⁹ And his father refuses and says, I know, my son, I know: he also becomes a people and he also greatens: but his younger brother becomes greater than he and his seed becomes a fulness of goyim.

YAAQOV BLESSES HIS SONS
And Yaaqov calls to his sons, and says, Gather and I tell you what confronts you in the final days. ² Gather and hear, you sons of Yaaqov and hearken to Yisra El your father. ³ Reu Ben, my firstbirth: you - my force and the beginning of my strength; the remainder of exaltation and the remainder of strength: ⁴ frothy as water, you remain not, because you ascended to the bed of your father; then you profaned it: he ascended to my couch. ⁵ Shimon and Levi: brothers with instruments of violence in their swords: ⁶ come not into their secret, O my soul; to their congregation, unite not, O my honor: for in their wrath they slaughtered a man and in their pleasure they hamstrung oxen: ⁷ cursed be their wrath, for it is strong; and their fury, for it is hard: I allot them in Yaaqov and scatter them in Yisra El. ⁸ Yah Hudah: you to whom your brothers spread hands: your hand is on the neck of your enemies; the sons of your father prostrate to you: ⁹ Yah Hudah is a whelp of a lion: from the prey, my son, you ascend: he kneels; he crouches as a lion and as a roaring lion; who rouses him? ¹⁰ Neither turns the scion aside from Yah Hudah nor a statute setter from between his feet until Shiloh come; and the obedience of the people is his: ¹¹ binding his foal to the vine and the son of his she burro to the choice; he launders his robes in wine and his veil in the blood of grapes: ¹² his eyes flush with wine and his teeth whiten with milk. ¹³ Zebulun: he tabernacles at the haven of the sea: and he is for a haven of ships; and his flank is to Sidon. ¹⁴ Yissachar: a bony he burro crouching between the stalls: ¹⁵ and he sees that rest is good and that the land pleases; and bows his shoulder to bear and becomes to serve as a vassal. ¹⁶ Dan: he pleads the cause of his people, as one of the scions of Yisra El: ¹⁷ Dan becomes a serpent by the way - an adder in the path who bites the horse heels, so that his rider falls backward. ¹⁸ I await your salvation, O Yah Veh. ¹⁹ Gad: a troop troops against him: but he troops against the heel. cp Genesis 3:15 ²⁰ Asher: his bread fattens and he gives delicacies to the sovereign. ²¹ Naphtali: a hind sent away: he gives glorious sayings. ²² Yoseph: a fruitful son - a fruitful son by a fountain; whose daughters pace over the wall: ²³ the masters of arrows embitter him and shoot and oppose him: ²⁴ and his bow settles perennial and the arms of his hands solidify by the hands of the Almighty of Yaaqov - from there is he who tends, the stone of Yisra El: ²⁵ by El of your father, who helps you; and by Shadday, who blesses you with blessings of the heavens most high - blessings of the abyss that crouch under - blessings of the breasts and of the womb: ²⁶ the blessings of your father prevail mightily above the blessings of those whom I conceived to the limits of the eternal hills: they be on the head of Yoseph and on his scalp who is a Separatist of his brothers. ²⁷ Ben Yamin: he tears as a wolf: in the morning he devours the prey and at evening he allots the loot. ²⁸ All these: the twelve scions of Yisra El: and this is it what their father words to them; and he blesses them - every man according to his blessing he blesses them.

²³ - and Paroh turns his face and goes into his house and sets not his heart even to this.

¹¹ and the magicians cannot stand at the face of Mosheh at the face of the ulcers: for the ulcer becomes on the magicians and on all the Misrayim.

⁴ And Mosheh says, Thus says Yah Veh, About midnight, I go midst the Misrayim: ⁵ and all the firstbirth in the land of Misrayim die - from the firstbirth of Paroh who sits on his throne even to the firstbirth of the maid behind the millstones; and all the firstbirth of animals. ⁶ And a great cry becomes throughout all the land of Misrayim such as had never become, nor ever become:

²⁹ And so be it, at midnight Yah Veh smites all the firstbirthed in the land of Misrayim, from the firstbirth of Paroh sitting on his throne to the firstbirth of the captives in the well; and all the firstbirth of animals: ³⁰ and Paroh rises at night - he and all his servants and all the Misrayim; and there becomes a great cry in Misrayim; for there is not a house where there is not one who died.

⁹ - and it becomes a sign for you on your hand and for a memorial between your eyes, that the torah of Yah Veh is in your mouth: for with a strong hand Yah Veh brings you from Misrayim.

⁴ Work not to yourself any sculptile or any similitude of that in the heavens above or that in the earth beneath or that in the water under the earth: ⁵ neither prostrate yourself to them, nor serve them: for I Yah Veh your Elohim am a jealous El, visiting the perversity of the fathers on the sons to the third and fourth of them who hate me;

⁴ and he takes them from their hand and with a stylus forms and works a molten calf thereof: and they say, These are your elohim, O Yisra El, who ascended you from the land of Misrayim.

⁸ they suddenly turn aside from the way I misvahed them: they work themselves a molten calf and prostrate to it and sacrifice thereto, and say, These are your elohim, O Yisra El, who ascended you from the land of Misrayim.

⁴⁰ and on the first day, take the boughs of majestic trees, palms of palm trees and the fruit of thick trees and willows of the wadi; and cheer at the face of Yah Veh your Elohim seven days:

¹
BLESSING OF OBEDIENCE
Work neither idols nor sculptiles nor raise a monolith; nor give any imagery of stone in your land to prostrate thereto: for I - Yah Veh your Elohim. ² Guard my shabbaths and awe my holies: I - Yah Veh. ³ If you walk in my statutes and guard and work my misvoth, ⁴ then I give you downpour in time and the land gives her produce and the trees of the field give their fruit: ⁵ and your threshing reaches to the crop and the crop reaches to the seeding: and you eat your bread to satiety and settle in your land confidently: ⁶ and I give shalom in the land; and you lie down and no one trembles you: and I cause the evil live being to shabbathize from the land: that the sword not pass through your land. ⁷ And you pursue your enemies and they fall by the sword at your face: ⁸ and five of you pursue a hundred and a hundred of you pursue a myriad; and your enemies fall by the sword at your face. ⁹ And I turn my face toward you that you bear fruit and abound; and raise my covenant with you: ¹⁰ and you eat old store and bring forth the old at the face of the new. ¹¹ And I give my tabernacle among you: and my soul loathes you not: ¹² and I walk among you and become to you, Elohim and you become to me, people: ¹³ I - Yah Veh your Elohim who brought you from the land of Misrayim that you not be their servants; and I break the yoke poles of your yoke and carry you erect. ¹⁴
DISCIPLINE OF DISOBEDIENCE
And if you hearken not to me and work not all these misvoth; ¹⁵ and if you spurn my statutes or if your soul loathes my judgments; so that you work not all my misvoth to break my covenant ¹⁶ - I also work this to you: I visit terror over you - emaciation and the burning ague to finish off the eyes; and moping of soul: and you seed your seed in vain for your enemies to eat. ¹⁷ And I give my face against you, that you become smitten at the face of your enemies: that they who hate you subjugate you; and that you flee when none pursues you. ¹⁸ And if you yet for all this hearken not to me I add to discipline you seven times for your sins: ¹⁹ and I break the pomp of your strength; and I give your heavens as iron and your earth as copper: ²⁰ and your force consumes in vain: neither your land gives her produce nor the trees of the land give their fruits. ²¹ And if you walk contrary to me and hearken not to me; I add seven strokes on you according to your sins: ²² and I send live beings of the field among you to bereave you and cut your animals and diminish you and desolate your ways. ²³ And if by these, you are not disciplined by me, and walk contrary to me, ²⁴ then I also walk contrary to you and smite you yet seven for your sins: ²⁵ and I bring a sword on you to avenge the avenging of my covenant: and when you gather to your cities, I send the pestilence among you; that you become given into the hand of the enemy: ²⁶ and in breaking the rod of your bread, ten women bake your bread in one oven and they restore your bread by weight: and you eat and satiate not. ²⁷ And if for all this, you hearken not to me and walk contrary to me; ²⁸ then I also walk contrary to you in fury; and I - yes, I discipline you seven for your sins: ²⁹ and you eat the flesh of your sons and you eat the flesh of your daughters. ³⁰ And I destroy your bamahs and cut down your sun icons and give your carcases on the carcases of your idols that my soul loathe you: ³¹ and I give your cities as parched areas and desolate your holies and I scent not your scent of rest: ³² and I desolate the land and desolate your enemies who settle therein: ³³ and I scatter you among the goyim and draw a sword after you: and desolate your land and parch your cities. ³⁴ Then the land is pleased in her shabbaths as long as it desolates; with you in the land of your enemies; then the land shabbathizes and is pleased in her shabbaths: ³⁵ as long as it desolates, it shabbathizes; because it shabbathizes not in your shabbaths when you settle there. ³⁶ And on those who survive, I send a timidity into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the voice of a driven leaf pursues them; and they flee as retreating from a sword; and they fall when none pursues: ³⁷ and they falter - man to brother as at the face of a sword when none pursues: and you have no resistance at the face of your enemies: ³⁸ and you destruct among the goyim and the land of your enemies eats you: ³⁹ and those of you who survive pine away in their perversity in the lands of your enemies; and also in the perversities of their fathers they pine away with them. ⁴⁰
THE REWARD FOR WRINGING HANDS
And if they wring hands for their perversity and the perversity of their fathers, and the treason they treason against me and also for walking contrary to me; ⁴¹ and that I also, in walking contrary to them bring them into the land of their enemies - if they humble their uncircumcised hearts; and they then be pleased in the punishment of their perversity ⁴² - then I remember my covenant with Yaaqov and also my covenant with Yischaq and also my covenant with Abraham I remember - and I remember the land. ⁴³ For they forsake the land and are pleased in her shabbaths as she lies desolate without them: and they are pleased in their perversity: because - even because they spurn my judgments and because their soul loathes my statutes. ⁴⁴ And yes, for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I neither spurn them nor loathe them to finish them off - to break my covenant with them: for I - Yah Veh their Elohim. ⁴⁵ But I, for their sakes, remember the covenant of their first, whom I brought from the land of Misrayim in the eyes of the goyim, that I become their Elohim: I - Yah Veh. ⁴⁶ These are the statutes and judgments and torahs Yah Veh gave between him and between the sons of Yisra El in mount Sinay by the hand of Mosheh.

⁹ Only guard yourself and guard your soul mightily, lest you forget the words your eyes saw; and lest they turn aside from your heart all the days of your life: but teach them to your sons and the sons of your sons.

¹⁶ lest you ruin, and work a sculptile - the manifestation of any figurine the pattern of male or female, ¹⁷ the pattern of any animal on the earth, the pattern of any winged fowl flying in the heavens, ¹⁸ the pattern of aught creeping on the soil, the pattern of any fish in the waters beneath the earth:

²³ Guard yourselves, lest you forget the covenant of Yah Veh your Elohim, which he cut with you - and work yourselves a sculptile or a manifestation of which Yah Veh your Elohim misvahed you.

²⁵ When you birth sons and sons of sons and linger in the land and ruin and make a sculptile or a manifestation and work evil in the eyes of Yah Veh your Elohim, to vex him to wrath: ²⁶ I call the heavens and earth to witness against you this day, that in destructing, you suddenly destruct from off the land whereunto you pass over Yarden to possess; that you prolong not your days thereon, but in desolating, become desolated: ²⁷ and Yah Veh scatter you among the nations and you be few men in number of the people who survive, where Yah Veh drives you. ²⁸ And there you serve elohim, the work of human hands - timber and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor scent.

²⁸ And there you serve elohim, the work of human hands - timber and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor scent. ²⁹ And if from there you seek Yah Veh your Elohim - and find if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul ³⁰ - when you are in tribulation and all these words find you - even in the final days, if you turn to Yah Veh your Elohim and hearken to his voice; ³¹
YAH VEH, A MERCIFUL EL for Yah Veh your Elohim is a merciful El; he neither lets you loose nor ruins you, nor forgets the covenant of your fathers which he oathed to them.

³⁵ You saw, so that you know that Yah Veh Elohim - none else beside him.

³⁹ Know this day, and return it in your heart, that Yah Veh is Elohim in the heavens above and on the earth beneath - none else.

⁴ Hear, O Yisra El! Yah Veh our Elohim is one Yah Veh!

⁶ For you are a holy people to Yah Veh your Elohim: Yah Veh your Elohim chose you to be his peculiar people above all people on the face of the soil. ⁷ Yah Veh neither attached himself to you nor chose you because you were more abundant than any people - for you were the fewest of all people: ⁸ but because of the love of Yah Veh to you and because of guarding the oath he oathed to your fathers, Yah Veh brought you out with a strong hand and redeemed you from the house of servants - from the hand of Paroh sovereign of Misrayim.

¹⁷ You say this day for Yah Veh to become your Elohim and to walk in his ways; and to guard his statutes and his misvoth and his judgments; and to hearken to his voice. ¹⁸ And Yah Veh says this day for you to become his peculiar people, as he worded to you: and to guard all his misvoth; ¹⁹ and gives that you become most high above all goyim he worked - in halal and in name and in adornment; to become a holy people to Yah Veh your Elohim, as he worded.

¹⁵ Cursed is the man who works any sculptile or molten - an abhorrence to Yah Veh the work of the hands of the engraver, and puts it in a hideout. And all the people answer, and say, Amen!

¹
THE BLESSINGS OF OBEDIENCE And so be it, if in hearkening, you hearken to the voice of Yah Veh your Elohim, to guard and to work all his misvoth which I misvah you this day, Yah Veh your Elohim gives you - most high above all goyim of the earth: ² and all these blessings come on you and overtake you; because you hearken to the voice of Yah Veh your Elohim. ³ Blessed, you in the city and blessed, you in the field; ⁴ blessed, the fruit of your belly and the fruit of your soil; and the fruit of your animals - the fetus of your yoke and the riches of your flocks; ⁵ blessed, your basket and your doughboard: ⁶ blessed in your coming and blessed in your going. ⁷ Yah Veh gives your enemies who rise against you - smitten at your face: they come against you one way and flee your face seven ways. ⁸ Yah Veh misvahs blessing on you in your ingatherings and in all you spread your hand to; and blesses you in the land Yah Veh your Elohim gives you. ⁹ Yah Veh raises you - a holy people to himself, as he oathed to you, when you guard the misvoth of Yah Veh your Elohim and walk in his ways: ¹⁰ and all people of the earth see the name of Yah Veh called upon you; and they awe you: ¹¹ and Yah Veh overflows you in goods - in the fruit of your belly and in the fruit of your animals and in the fruit of your soil - the soil Yah Veh oathed to your fathers to give you. ¹² Yah Veh opens his good treasure to you - the heavens to give the rain to your land in its time and to bless all the work of your hand: and you lend to many goyim and you borrow not. ¹³ And Yah Veh gives you the head and not the tail; and you become only upward and you never become downward; when you hearken to the misvoth of Yah Veh your Elohim, which I misvah you this day to guard and to work: ¹⁴ and turn not aside from any of the words I misvah you this day - right or left, to go after other elohim to serve them. ¹⁵
THE CURSINGS OF DISOBEDIENCE And so be it, if you hearken not to the voice of Yah Veh your Elohim - to guard to work all his misvoth and his statutes which I misvah you this day, that all these abasements come on you and overtake you: ¹⁶ you, cursed in the city and you, cursed in the field: ¹⁷ cursed, your basket and your doughboard. ¹⁸ cursed, the fruit of your belly and the fruit of your soil; the fetus of your yoke and the riches of your flocks: ¹⁹ cursed in your coming and cursed in your going. ²⁰ Yah Veh sends on you cursing, confusion and rebuke, in all you spread your hand to work, until you become desolated and until you suddenly destruct at the face of the evil of your exploits whereby you forsake me. ²¹ Yah Veh adheres the pestilence to you, until he finishes you off from the soil you go to possess. ²² Yah Veh smites you with an emaciation and with a fever and with an inflammation and with a fevered fever and with the sword and with blasting and with palegreen; and they pursue you until you destruct: ²³ and your heavens over your head become copper and the earth under you becomes iron. ²⁴ Yah Veh gives the rain of your land as powder and dust: to descend on you from the heavens until you desolate: ²⁵ Yah Veh gives you, smitten at the face of your enemies: you go against them one way and flee their face seven ways: - removed into all the sovereigndoms of the earth. ²⁶ And your carcase becomes food for all flyers of the heavens and for the animals of the earth and no man trembles them. ²⁷ Yah Veh smites you with the ulcer of Misrayim and with the hemorrhoids and with the scurvy and with the itch whereof you cannot be healed. ²⁸ Yah Veh smites you with insanity and blindness and consternation of heart: ²⁹ and at noon, you grope in darkness as the blind grope; and you prosper not in your ways: and you become only oppressed and stripped all days and no man saves you. ³⁰ You betroth a woman and another man rapes her; you build a house and you settle not therein; you plant a vineyard and pluck not thereof: ³¹ your ox, slaughtered in front of your eyes and you not eat thereof; your he burro, stripped at your face - never to return to you; your flocks, given to your enemies and no one saves them: ³² your sons and your daughters, given to another people; and your eyes see, and fail for them all the day long; and there is no el in your hand. ³³ The fruit of your soil and all your labours, eaten by a people you know not; and you become only oppressed and crushed all days: ³⁴ so that you become insane because of the visage your eyes see. ³⁵ Yah Veh smites you in the knees and in the legs, with an evil ulcer that cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to your scalp: ³⁶ Yah Veh carries you and the sovereign you raise over you, to a goyim whom neither you nor your fathers know; and there you serve other elohim - timber and stone. ³⁷ And you become a desolation, a proverb and a gibe, among all people Yah Veh drives you. ³⁸ You carry much seed to the field but ingather little; for the locust consumes it: ³⁹ you plant vineyards and serve them, but neither drink the wine nor gather the grapes; for the maggots eat them: ⁴⁰ you have olives throughout all your borders, but you anoint not with the oil; for your olive slips: ⁴¹ you birth sons and daughters but enjoy them not; for they go to captivity: ⁴² all your trees and fruit of your soil the locust possesses. ⁴³ The sojourner in your midst ascends upward and upward; and you descend downward and downward. ⁴⁴ He lends to you and you lend not to him: he becomes the head and you become the tail. ⁴⁵ And all these abasements come upon you and pursue you and overtake you until you become desolated - because you hearken not to the voice of Yah Veh your Elohim - to guard his misvoth and his statutes which he misvahed you: ⁴⁶ and they become for a sign and for an omen on you and on your seed eternally: ⁴⁷ because you serve not Yah Veh your Elohim with cheerfulness and with goodness of heart for the abundance of all ⁴⁸ - you serve the enemies Yah Veh sends against you in famine and in thirst and in nakedness and in want of all: and he gives a yoke of iron upon your neck, until he desolates you: ⁴⁹ Yah Veh lifts a goyim against you from afar - from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a goyim whose tongue you hear not; ⁵⁰ a goyim strong of face who neither exalts the face of the aged nor grants charism to the lads: ⁵¹ and he eats the fruit of your animals and the fruit of your soil until you desolate: and no crop survives - juice or oil or the fetus of your yoke or the riches of your flocks until he destroys you: ⁵² and he tribulates you in all your portals until your high and fortified walls topple - wherein you confided, throughout all your land: and he tribulates you in all your portals throughout all the land Yah Veh your Elohim gives you: ⁵³ and you eat the fruit of your own belly - the flesh of your sons and of your daughters; whom Yah Veh your Elohim gives you in the siege and in the distress, wherewith your enemies distress you: ⁵⁴ so that the man among you - tender and mighty delicate, his eye becomes evil toward his brother and toward the woman of his bosom and toward the remnant of his sons who remain: ⁵⁵ so that he gives not one of them of the flesh of his sons whom he eats: because he has none to survive him in the siege and in the distress, wherewith your enemies distress you in all your portals. ⁵⁶ The tender and delicate among you, who tests not to set the sole of her foot on the earth because of delicateness and tenderness, her eye becomes evil toward the man of her bosom and toward her son and toward her daughter ⁵⁷ and toward her fetus coming from between her feet and toward the sons she births: for she eats them covertly for lack of all in the siege and distress, wherewith your enemies distress you in your portals. ⁵⁸ If you guard not to work all the words of this torah inscribed in this scroll, to awe this honored and awesome name, YAH VEH YOUR ELOHIM; ⁵⁹ then Yah Veh makes your strokes marvelous and the strokes of your seed, great strokes and trustworthy; and evil sicknesses, trustworthy: ⁶⁰ and he restores on you all the diseases of Misrayim you feared at their face; and they adhere to you: ⁶¹ also every sickness and every stroke not inscribed in the scroll of this torah, Yah Veh ascends them on you until you desolate: ⁶² and you survive, few men in number, whereas you were as the stars of the heavens for abundance; all because you hear not the voice of Yah Veh your Elohim. ⁶³ And so be it, as Yah Veh rejoiced over you to well-please you and to abound you; thus Yah Veh rejoices over you to destroy you and to desolate you; and uproot you from the soil you go to possess: ⁶⁴ and Yah Veh scatters you among all people from the end of the earth to the end of the earth; and there you serve other elohim which neither you nor your fathers know - timber and stone. ⁶⁵ And among these goyim you neither blink nor rest the sole of your foot: and there Yah Veh gives you a quivering heart and failing of eyes and sorrow of soul: ⁶⁶ and suspends your life in front of you; and you fear day and night and trust not in your life: ⁶⁷ in the morning you say, O to give that it become evening! and at evening you say, O to give that it become morning! - for the fear of your heart that you fear and for the vision of your eyes that you see. ⁶⁸ And Yah Veh returns you to Misrayim with ships by the way I said to you, You see it never again: and there you sell yourselves to your enemies for servants and maids - and no man chattels you.

¹⁹
THE NEW SONG So now inscribe this song for yourselves and teach the sons of Yisra El: put it in their mouths, that this song become a witness for me against the sons of Yisra El: ²⁰ and I bring them to the soil I oathed to their fathers flowing with milk and honey: and they eat and satiate and fatten and turn to the face of other elohim and serve them and scorn me and break my covenant. ²¹ And so be it, when many evils and tribulations find them, this song answers at their face for a witness not to be forgotten from the mouths of their seed: for I know the imagination they work this day, ere I bring them to the land I oathed.

⁴ The Rock - his deed is integrious: for all his ways are judgment: El of trust and without wickedness, just and straight is he.

⁸ When Elyon had the goyim to inherit, when he separated the sons of humanity, he stationed the borders of the people according to the number of the sons of Yisra El.

¹⁵ And Yeshurun fattens and kicks: you fatten; you thicken; you fattened; then he forsakes Elohah who worked him and disgraces the Rock of his salvation.

¹⁸ Remember the Rock who birthed you: you forgot the El who formed you.

³¹ For their rock is not as our Rock, as even our enemies themselves judge.

³⁹ See now that I - I am he and there is no Elohim with me: I deathify and I enliven; I strike and I heal: no one escapes my hand.

⁴⁶ and he says to them, Set your hearts to all the words I witness among you this day - for you to misvah your sons to guard to work - all the words of this torah.

⁵ and he is sovereign in Yeshurun, in the gathering of the heads of the people - the scions of Yisra El.

¹⁹ And so be it, at the death of the judge, they return, more ruinous than their fathers, by going after other elohim to serve them and to prostrate to them; they neither fall from their exploits nor from their hard way.

²⁹ And they say man to friend, Who worked this word? And they enquire and seek, and they say, Gidon the son of Yah Ash worked this word. ³⁰ Then the men of the city say to Yah Ash, Bring out your son to die: because he pulled down the sacrifice altar of Baal and because he cut down the asherah by it. ³¹ And Yah Ash says to all who stand against him, You - plead you for Baal? You - you save him? Deathify him who pleads for him by morning: if he is an elohim, he pleads for himself, because he pulled down his sacrifice altar. ³² And on that day he calls him Yerub Baal, saying, Baal pleads against him, because he pulled down his sacrifice altar.

¹⁴ go and cry to the elohim you chose; have them save you in the time of your tribulation.

²³
THE DEATH OF SHIMSHON
Then the ringleaders of the Peleshethiy gather together to sacrifice a great sacrifice to Dagon their elohim and to cheer: for they say, Our elohim gives Shimshon our enemy into our hand. ²⁴ And when the people see him, they halal their elohim: for they say, Into our hands our elohim delivers our enemy and the parcher of our land, who abounded our pierced. ²⁵ And so be it, when their hearts are goodly, they say, Call for Shimshon to entertain us. - and they call for Shimshon from the house of binding; and he entertains them: and they stand him between the pillars. ²⁶ And Shimshon says to the lad holding him by the hand, Allow me to touch the pillars whereupon the house is established - to lean on them. ²⁷ And the house is full of men and women; and all the ringleaders of the Peleshethiy are there - and on the roof about three thousand men and women see while Shimshon entertains. ²⁸ And Shimshon calls to Yah Veh, and says, O Adonay Yah Veh, remember me, I beseech you; strengthen me, I beseech you, only, this one time, O Elohim, to avenge the avengement of the Peleshethiy for my two eyes. ²⁹ And Shimshon clasps the two middle pillars whereon the house is established and whereon it is propped - the one with his right and the one with his left. ³⁰ And Shimshon says, O that my soul die with the Peleshethiy. - and he spreads himself with force; and the house falls on the ringleaders and on all the people therein. So the dead he deathified at his death are greater than those he deathified in his life.

⁴ He restores the silver to his mother; and his mother takes two hundred silver and gives them to the refiner, who works a sculptile and a molting thereof: and they are in the house of Michah Yah. ⁵ And the man Michah Yah has a house of elohim and works an ephod and teraphim and fills the hand of one of his sons who becomes his priest.

²⁴ And he says, You take the elohim I worked and the priest and you go! What more have I? What is this that you say to me, What - to you?

² None is holy as Yah Veh - none except you: - no rock like our Elohim.

³ And the Ashdodiy start early on the morrow, and behold, Dagon fallen on his face to the earth at the face of the ark of Yah Veh; and they take Dagon and return him in his place. ⁴ And when they start early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon fallen on his face to the earth at the face of the ark of Yah Veh; and the head of Dagon and both palms of his hands are cut off on the threshold; only, Dagon survives. ⁵ So neither the priests of Dagon nor any who come into the house of Dagon tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day. ⁶ But the hand of Yah Veh is heavy on Ashdod; and he desolates them and smites them with hemorrhoids - Ashdod and the borders thereof. ⁷ And the men of Ashdod see, and so be it, they say, The ark of the Elohim of Yisra El settles not with us: for his hand is hard on us and on Dagon our elohim.

⁴ Then they say, What return we to him for the guilt? They say, Five golden hemorrhoids and five golden mice, according to the number of the ringleaders of the Peleshethiy: for one plague is on you all and on your ringleaders. ⁵ Work images of your hemorrhoids and images of your mice that ruin the land; and give honor to Elohim of Yisra El: perhaps he slightens his hand from off you and from off your elohim and from off your land.

³¹ And one tells David, saying, Achiy Thophel is among the conspirators with Abi Shalom. And David says, O Yah Veh, I pray you, in follying, folly the counsel of Achiy Thophel.

²³ And the counsel Achiy Thophel counsels in those days, is as if a man asks at the word of Elohim: thus is all the counsel of Achiy Thophel both with David and with Abi Shalom.

²³ And Achiy Thophel sees that his counsel works not, he harnesses his he burro and rises and goes to his house - to his city and misvahs concerning his house; and strangles himself and dies: and is entombed in the tomb of his father.

³² Who is El, except Yah Veh? Who is a rock, except our Elohim?

⁵ and Shelomoh goes after Ashtoreth the elohim of the Sidoniy; and after Milchom the abomination of the Ammoniy:

⁷ Then Shelomoh builds a bamah for Kemosh the abomination of Moab in the mountain at the face of Yeru Shalem; and for Molech the abomination of the sons of Ammon:

²⁸ And the sovereign takes counsel and works two calves of gold, and says to them, Too much for you to ascend to Yeru Shalem: behold your Elohim, O Yisra El, who ascended you from the land of Misrayim.

³ And that same day, he gives an omen, saying, This is the omen Yah Veh words; Behold, the sacrifice altar is ripped, and the fat thereon, poured out. ⁴ And so be it, sovereign Yarob Am hears the word of the man of Elohim who calls out against the sacrifice altar in Beth El, and he sends his hand from the sacrifice altar, saying, Apprehend him. And the hand he sends against him withers so that he cannot turn it back to him: ⁵ and the sacrifice altar rips and the fat pours from the sacrifice altar according to the omen the man of Elohim gives by the word of Yah Veh.

¹⁹ and now send; gather all Yisra El to me to mount Karmel and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty and the prophets of the asherim four hundred who eat at the table of Iy Zebel. ²⁰ - and Ach Ab sends to all the sons of Yisra El and gathers the prophets to mount Karmel. ²¹ And Eli Yah comes near all the people, and says, How long limp you divided in two? If Yah Veh be Elohim, go after him! And if Baal, go after him! - and the people answer him not a word. ²² Then Eli Yah says to the people, I - I only, remain a prophet of Yah Veh; but the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men: ²³ have them give us two bullocks; and they choose one bullock for themselves and dismember it and set it on timber and set no fire: and I work one bullock and give it on timber and set no fire: ²⁴ and you call on the name of your elohim and I call on the name of Yah Veh: and the elohim who answers by fire - he is Elohim. And all the people answer and say, Good word. ²⁵ And Eli Yah says to the prophets of Baal, Choose one bullock for yourselves and work it first; for you are many; and call on the name of your elohim, but set no fire. ²⁶ And they take the bullock he gives them and they work it; and call on the name of Baal from morning even until noon saying, O Baal, answer us. - and there is neither voice, nor answer: and they leap on the sacrifice altar they worked.

²⁶ And they take the bullock he gives them and they work it; and call on the name of Baal from morning even until noon saying, O Baal, answer us. - and there is neither voice, nor answer: and they leap on the sacrifice altar they worked.

²⁶ And they take the bullock he gives them and they work it; and call on the name of Baal from morning even until noon saying, O Baal, answer us. - and there is neither voice, nor answer: and they leap on the sacrifice altar they worked. ²⁷ And so be it, at noon, Eli Yah mocks them and says, Call out with a great voice; for he is elohim: either he meditates or withdraws or journeys or perhaps he sleeps and wakens.

²⁷ And so be it, at noon, Eli Yah mocks them and says, Call out with a great voice; for he is elohim: either he meditates or withdraws or journeys or perhaps he sleeps and wakens. ²⁸ And they call with a great voice and incise themselves according to their judgment with swords and javelins, until blood pours over them:

²⁸ And they call with a great voice and incise themselves according to their judgment with swords and javelins, until blood pours over them: ²⁹ and so be it, noon passes, and they prophesy until the holocaust of the offering; and there is neither voice nor any answering, nor any hearkening.

²⁹ and so be it, noon passes, and they prophesy until the holocaust of the offering; and there is neither voice nor any answering, nor any hearkening. ³⁰ And Eli Yah says to all the people, Come near to me. - and all the people come near him. And he heals the sacrifice altar of Yah Veh that is demolished: ³¹ and Eli Yah takes twelve stones - according to the number of the scions of the sons of Yaaqov, - to whom the word of Yah Veh became saying, Yisra El becomes your name: ³² and with the stones he builds a sacrifice altar in the name of Yah Veh: and he works a channel all around the sacrifice altar to house two seahs of seed: ³³ and he lines up the timber and dismembers the bullock and sets him on the timber and says, Fill four pitchers with water and pour it on the holocaust and on the timber. ³⁴ And he says, Double! - and they double. And he says, Triple! - and they triple. ³⁵ And the water goes all around the sacrifice altar; and he also fills the channel with water. ³⁶ And so be it, at the holocaust of the offering, Eli Yah the prophet comes near and says, Yah Veh Elohim of Abraham, Yischaq, and Yisra El, so be it known this day that you are Elohim in Yisra El and I your servant: and by your word I work all these.

³⁶ And so be it, at the holocaust of the offering, Eli Yah the prophet comes near and says, Yah Veh Elohim of Abraham, Yischaq, and Yisra El, so be it known this day that you are Elohim in Yisra El and I your servant: and by your word I work all these. ³⁷ Answer me, O Yah Veh, answer me, so that this people knows you are Yah Veh Elohim and that you turn their heart backward.

³⁷ Answer me, O Yah Veh, answer me, so that this people knows you are Yah Veh Elohim and that you turn their heart backward. ³⁸ Then the fire of Yah Veh falls; and consumes the holocaust and the timber and the stones and the dust and licks up the water in the channel.

³⁸ Then the fire of Yah Veh falls; and consumes the holocaust and the timber and the stones and the dust and licks up the water in the channel. ³⁹ And all the people see, and fall on their faces and say, Yah Veh, he is Elohim! Yah Veh, he is Elohim! ⁴⁰ And Eli Yah says to them, Apprehend the prophets of Baal; that not a man of them escape. - and they apprehend them. And Eli Yah descends them to the wadi Qishon and slaughters them there.

⁴⁰ And Eli Yah says to them, Apprehend the prophets of Baal; that not a man of them escape. - and they apprehend them. And Eli Yah descends them to the wadi Qishon and slaughters them there.

¹¹ And Sidqi Yah the son of Kenaanah works himself horns of iron: and he says, Thus says Yah Veh, But the Aramiy with these until you finish them off. ¹² And all the prophets prophesy thus, saying, Ascend to Ramoth Gilad and prosper: for Yah Veh gives it in the hand of the sovereign.

²⁰ And Yah Veh says, Who entices Ach Ab to ascend and fall at Ramoth Gilad? And this one says thus; and that one says thus: ²¹ and a spirit goes and stands at the face of Yah Veh and says, I entice him. ²² And Yah Veh says to him, How? And he says, I go and I become a false spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he says, Entice him and also prevail: Go! Work thus!

²² And Yah Veh says to him, How? And he says, I go and I become a false spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he says, Entice him and also prevail: Go! Work thus! ²³ And now behold, Yah Veh gives a false spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets and Yah Veh words evil concerning you.

²³ And now behold, Yah Veh gives a false spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets and Yah Veh words evil concerning you. ²⁴ And Sidqi Yah the son of Kenaanah comes near and smites Michah Yah on the cheek and says, Where passes the Spirit of Yah Veh from me to word to you? ²⁵ And Michah Yah says, Behold, you see in that day when you go into an inner chamber to hide yourself.

³⁷ And the sovereign dies and enters Shomeron; and they entomb the sovereign in Shomeron:

¹³ And the sovereign fouls the bamahs at the face of Yeru Shalem at the right of the mount of ruin, which Shelomoh the sovereign of Yisra El built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidoniy, and for Kemosh the abomination of the Moabiy, and for Milchom the abhorrence of the sons of Ammon:

¹¹ And all the prophets prophesy thus, saying, Ascend to Ramoth Gilad and prosper: for Yah Veh gives it into the hand of the sovereign.

³⁴ And the war ascends that day: and the sovereign of Yisra El stays in his chariot against the Aramiy until the evening: and about the time of the descending of the sun, he dies.

¹⁴ And so be it, after Amaz Yah comes from the smiting of the Edomiy, he brings the elohim of the sons of Seir; and stands them to be his elohim; and prostrates at their face and incenses to them.

²²
KORESH IS MUSTERED TO BUILD THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH
And in the first year of Koresh sovereign of Persia - in order to finish the word of Yah Veh by the mouth of Yirme Yah, Yah Veh wakens the spirit of Koresh sovereign of Persia: and he passes a voice throughout all his sovereigndom and also inscribes, saying,

² Thus says Koresh sovereign of Persia: Yah Veh Elohim of the heavens gives me all the sovereigndoms of the earth; and he musters me to build him a house at Yeru Shalem, Yah Hudah.

⁷⁰ And the priests and the Leviym and of the people and the singers and the porters and the Dedicates, settle in their cities; and all Yisra El in their cities.

³ In the first year of Koresh the sovereign Koresh the sovereign set a decree concerning the house of Elah at Yeru Shalem, Build the house - a place to sacrifice sacrifices and erect the foundations thereof - its height, sixty cubits and its width, sixty cubits: ⁴ with three layers of round stones and a row of new timber: and give the expenses from the house of the sovereign: ⁵ and also restore the gold and silver vessels of the house of Elah which Nebukadnets Tsar removed from the manse at Yeru Shalem and brought to Babel; and return to their place in the manse at Yeru Shalem; and deposit them in the house of Elah. ⁶ Now, Tattenay governor beyond the river, Shethar Bozenay and your colleagues the Apharsechiy beyond the river, be far from thence: ⁷ leave the service of this house of Elah: this is for the governor of the Yah Hudiym and the elders of the Yah Hudiym to build this house of Elah in his place. ⁸ And I set a decree of what to do to the elders of these Yah Hudiym for the building of this house of Elah: that of the holdings of the sovereign - of the tribute beyond the river, that expenses be given diligently to these men that they not cease: ⁹ and whatever they need - sons of bulls and rams and lambs for the holocausts of the Elah of the heavens - wheat, salt, fermentation and anointing oil according to the edict of the priests at Yeru Shalem; give them day by day with no error: ¹⁰ to oblate sacrifices of savours of rest to Elah of the heavens; and pray for the life of the sovereign and of his sons: ¹¹ I set a decree, that any man who alters this decision, that timber be uprooted from his house and being lifted, be struck thereon; and his house be made cesspools for this. ¹² And Elah, who tabernacles his name there, overthrows all sovereigns and people, who send their hand to alter and to despoil this house of Elah at Yeru Shalem. I Daryavesh set a decree! Service it diligently! ¹³ Then Tattenay, governor on this side the river, Shethar Bozenay and their colleagues, according to what Daryavesh the sovereign sent, thus they did diligently. ¹⁴ And the elders of the Yah Hudiym build and prosper through the prophesying of Haggay the prophet and Zechar Yah the son of Iddo: and they build and finish according to the decree of Elah of Yisra El and according to the decree of Koresh and Daryavesh and Artach Shashta sovereign of Persia. ¹⁵
THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH FINISHED
And this house is finished on the third day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of the sovereigndom of Daryavesh the sovereign. ¹⁶
THE HOUSE OF YAH VEH HANUKKAHED
And the sons of Yisra El the priests and the Leviym and the survivors of the sons of the exile, hanukkah this house of Elah with rejoicing: ¹⁷ and oblate at the hanukkah of this house of Elah: a hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs: and for the sin for all Yisra El, twelve buck goats of the doe goats according to the enumeration of the scions of Yisra El. ¹⁸ And they raise the priests in their divisions and the Leviym in their allotments, for the service of Elah at Yeru Shalem; according to the inscribing in the scroll of Mosheh.

²² for I shame to ask the sovereign for men of valour and cavalry to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had said to the sovereign, saying, The hand of our Elohim is on all who seek him for good; but his strength and his wrath is against all who forsake him:

³ And they say to me, The survivors who survived the captivity there in the jurisdiction are in great evil and reproach: and the wall of Yeru Shalem is broken down and the portals thereof are burned with fire.

³ and say to the sovereign, The sovereign live eternally. Why not, my evil face, when the city, the house of the tombs of my father, is parched; and the portals thereof consume with fire?

¹
THE BUILDERS OF THE WALL
And El Yashib the great priest rises with his brothers the priests and they build the flock portal; they hallow it and stand its doors - hallow it even to the tower of Meah to the tower of Hanan El: ² and at his hand the men of Yericho build: and at their hand: Zakkur the son of Imri builds; ³ and the fish portal, the sons of Senaah build - he who felled its beams and stood its doors its locks and its bars: ⁴ and at their hand: Meremoth the son of Uri Yah the son of Qos strengthens; and at their hand: Meshullam the son of Berech Yah, the son of Meshezab El strengthens; and at their hand: Sadoq the son of Baana strengthens; ⁵ and at their hand: the Teqoaiy strengthen; and their mighty put not their necks to the service of their Adonay; ⁶ and the old portal Yah Yada the son of Paseach and Meshullam the son of Besod Yah strengthen - they fell its beams and stand its doors and its locks and its bars; ⁷ and at their hand: Melat Yah the Giboniy strengthens - and Yadon the Meronothiy the men of Gibon and of Mispeh - to the throne of the governor this side the river; ⁸ and at his hand: Uzzi El the son of Harha Yah of the refiners strengthens; and at his hand: Hanan Yah the son of the perfumers strengthens - and they leave Yeru Shalem to the wide wall; ⁹ and at their hand: Repha Yah the son of Hur the governor of the half circuit of Yeru Shalem strengthens; ¹⁰ and at their hand: Yeda Yah the son of Harum Aph strengthens - even over against his house; and at his hand: Hattush the son of Hashabne Yah strengthens; ¹¹ Malki Yah the son of Harim and Hashshub the son of Pachath Moab, strengthen the second measure and the tower of the furnaces; ¹² and at his hand: Shallum the son of Lochesh the governor of the half circuit of Yeru Shalem - he and his daughters strengthen; ¹³ the valley portal Hanun and the settlers of Zanoach strengthen - they build it and stand its doors its locks and its bars - and a thousand cubits on the wall to the dunghill portal; ¹⁴ and the dunghill portal Malki Yah the son of Rechab the governor of the circuit of Beth Hak Kerem strengthens; - he builds it and stands its doors its locks and its bars; ¹⁵ and the portal of the fountain Shallun the son of Kol Hozeh, the governor of the circuit of Mispeh strengthens - he builds it and covers it and stands its doors, its locks and its bars and the wall of the pool of Shiloach by the garden of the sovereign; and to the steps that descend from the city of David; ¹⁶ after him: Nechem Yah the son of Az Buq, the governor of the half circuit of Beth Sur, strengthens to over against the tombs of David and to the pool that is worked and to the house of the mighty; ¹⁷ after him: the Leviym - Rechum the son of Bani strengthen; at his hand: Hashab Yah the governor of the half circuit of Qeilah in his circuit strengthens; ¹⁸ after him: their brothers - Bavay the son of Henadad, the governor of the half circuit of Qeilah strengthen; ¹⁹ and at his hand: Ezer the son of Yah Shua, the governor of Mispeh, strengthens a second measure over against the ascent to the armoury at the corner; ²⁰ after him: Baruch the son of Zakkay kindles to strengthen the second measure from the corner to the portal of the house of El Yashib the great priest; ²¹ after him: Meremoth the son of Uri Yah the son of Qos strengthens a second measure, from the portal of the house of El Yashib even to the conclusion of the house of El Yashib; ²² and after him: the priests - the men of the environs strengthen; ²³ after him: Ben Yamin and Hashshub strengthen over against their house; after him: Azar Yah the son of Maase Yah the son of Anan Yah strengthens by his house; ²⁴ after him: Binnuy the son of Henadad strengthens a second measure - from the house of Azar Yah to the corner - and to the corner; ²⁵ Palal the son of Uzai, over against the corner and the tower which goes from the high house of the sovereign, by the court of the guard yard; after him: Pedah Yah the son of Parosh. ²⁶ The Dedicates settle in Ophel, against the water portal toward the rising and the tower that goes out; ²⁷ after them: the Teqoaiy strengthen a second measure over against the great tower that goes out even to the wall of Ophel; ²⁸ from above the horse portal the priests strengthen - each man over against his house; ²⁹ after them: Sadoq the son of Immer strengthens over against his house; after him: also Shema Yah the son of Shechan Yah the guard of the portal toward the rising strengthens; ³⁰ after him: Hanan Yah the son of Shelem Yah and Hanun the sixth son of Salaph strengthen a second measure; after him: Meshullam the son of Berech Yah strengthens over against his chamber; ³¹ after him: Malki Yah the son of the refiner strengthens to the house of the Dedicates and of the merchants - over against the portal Miphkad and to the upper room of the corner; ³² and between the upper room of the corner to the flock portal the refiners and the merchants strengthen.

⁵ and neither cover their perversity nor wipe away their sin from your face: for they vex you in front of the builders.

³⁸
AN AMANAH CUT, INSCRIBED, AND SEALED
And because of all this, we cut an amanah and inscribe it; and our governors, Leviym and priests seal it.

¹² He breaks down the fabrications of the subtle so that their hands not work their substance: ¹³ he captures the wise in their own craftiness; and hastens the counsel of the twisters. ¹⁴ They meet with darkness in the day and grope in the noonday as in the night.

⁸ Who alone spreads out the heavens and treads on the bamahs of the sea?

² and says, Answers the wise knowledge of spirit/wind? - fills his belly with the easterly?

³¹ He who strays, trusts not in vanity; for vanity is his exchange;

⁷ He spreads the north over the void and hangs the earth on naught whatever;

¹⁵ He who worked me in the belly worked he not also him? - that one who prepared us in the womb?

¹¹ by showering, he overloads the thick cloud; he scatters his lightning cloud:

²² the lotuses cover him with their shadow; the willows of the wadi surround him:

³ and being as a tree transplanted by the rivulets of water, giving his fruit in his time: his leaf withers not; and whatever he works, prospers.

³¹ For who is Elohah, except Yah Veh? Who is a rock, except our Elohim?

¹⁰ Yah Veh voids the counsel of the goyim; he annuls the fabrications of the people:

⁵ Elohim is in her midst; she totters not: Elohim helps her at the face of the morning.

¹ To His Eminence; Psalm by David: when Nathan the prophet comes to him, after he went in to Bath Sheba. Grant me charism, O Elohim, according to your mercy; according to the abundance of your tender mercies wipe out my rebellions:

⁹ Hide your face from my sins and wipe out all my perversities;

¹ A Psalm by David: when he is in the wilderness of Yah Hudah. O Elohim, you are my El; I seek you early; my soul thirsts for you - my flesh yearns for you in a parched and languid land without water;

³⁴ The heavens and earth halal him - the seas and every creeper.

⁶ - from the belly - who cut me from the inwards of my mother; my halal is continually of you.

¹⁵ you split the fountain and the wadi; you dried up perennial rivers.

¹⁵ he splits the rocks in the wilderness and gives them drink from great abysses: ¹⁶ he brings flows from the rock so the waters descend as rivers:

³⁵ and they remember Elohim is their rock and El Elyon their redeemer.

⁷¹ after the sucklings, great with young, he brought him to tend Yaaqov his people and Yisra El his inheritance; ⁷² thus he tended them according to the integrity of his heart; and led them by the discernment of his palms.

¹¹ But my people will to not hearken to my voice; and Yisra El has none of me: ¹² and I send them in the warp of their own heart; and they walk in their own counsels.

¹² and I send them in the warp of their own heart; and they walk in their own counsels. ¹³ Oh that my people hearken to me and Yisra El walk in my ways:

⁶ Neither the stupid man knows; nor the fool discerns this:

¹³ they who are transplanted in the house of Yah Veh blossom in the courts of our Elohim: ¹⁴ they still germinate in greyness - fat and green; ¹⁵ to tell that Yah Veh is straight - my rock and there is no wickedness in him.

¹¹ Cheer, O heavens; twirl, O earth; thunder, O sea and its fulness; ¹² jump for joy, O field and all therein; shout, all trees of the forest

⁷ Shamed are all they who serve sculptiles - who halal themselves with idols: prostrate to him, all you elohim.

⁷ The sea thunders and its fulness; the world and they who settle therein: ⁸ the rivers clap their palms; the mountains shout together

⁹ For I eat ashes as bread and mix my drink with weeping

¹³ You - you rise; you mercy Siyon; for the time to grant her charism - yes, the season has come. ¹⁴ For your servants are pleased in her stones and grant charism to the dust. ¹⁵ And the goyim awe the name of Yah Veh and all the sovereigns of the earth your honor. ¹⁶ Yah Veh built Siyon; he appears in his honor:

¹² as far as the rising from the dusk, thus far he removes our rebellions from us:

² who covers himself with light as a cloth; who spreads the heavens as a curtain;

⁶ O you seed of Abraham his servant, you sons of Yaaqov his chosen.

⁴² - for he remembered his holy word and Abraham his servant; ⁴³ and he brought forth his people rejoicing and his chosen shouting;

³⁵ He sets the wilderness to a marsh of water and parched earth to springs of waters:

¹⁴ the perversity of his fathers is remembered to Yah Veh; and the sin of his mother is not wiped out;

⁵ mouths have they, but they word not; eyes have they, but they see not; ⁶ ears have they, but they hear not; nostrils have they, but they scent not; ⁷ hands have they, but they touch not; feet have they, but they walk not; they mutter not through their throat. ⁸ They who work them are like them; thus is every one who confides in them.

¹⁶ I beseech, O Yah Veh, I your servant - I your servant, the son of your maid; you loosed my bonds.

¹⁸ They who work them are likened to them; thus every one who confides in them.

¹ By the rivers of Babel, there we settled; yes, we wept, when we remembered Siyon; ² we hung our harps midst the willows:

¹³ For you - you chattelized my reins; you covered me in the belly of my mother: ¹⁴ I spread hands to you; for I am awesomely distinguished; marvellous are your works - and my soul knows that right well. ¹⁵ My might was not concealed from you, when I was covertly worked and embroidered in the nethermost of the earth: ¹⁶ your eyes saw my embryo; and in your scroll they were inscribed in the days they were formed - and no one among them.

² Yah Veh builds Yeru Shalem; he gathers the overthrown of Yisra El;

⁷ Halal Yah Veh from the earth you monsters and all abysses;

²³ Turn at my reproof; behold, I gush my spirit to you; I make known my words to you.

⁵ - then you discern the awe of Yah Veh and find the knowledge of Elohim. ⁶ For Yah Veh gives wisdom - from his mouth knowledge and discernment: ⁷ he treasures substance for the straight; a buckler to them who walk integriously: ⁸ he guards the paths of judgment and guards the way of his mercied. ⁹ Then you discern justness and judgment and straightnesses - every good route:

²⁵ Neither awe sudden fear; nor the devastation of the wicked when it comes: ²⁶ for Yah Veh is your hope and he guards your foot from capture.

¹⁴ The heart of the discerner seeks knowledge; and the face of fools befriends folly.

⁵ Evil men discern not judgment; but they who seek Yah Veh discern all.

³ The ox knows his chatteler and the burro the manger of his master: Yisra El knows not; my people discern not.

¹⁸ Come, I beseech, and we reason, says Yah Veh: though your sins be as scarlet, they whiten as snow; though they be reddened like crimson, they be as wool.

²⁷ Siyon is redeemed in judgment and her returnees in justness:

²⁹ For they shame because of the mighty oaks you desire, and you blush for the gardens you chose.

²⁰ In that day, humanity casts his idols of silver and his idols of gold that they work for him to prostrate to - to the burrowers and to the bats; ²¹ to go into the crevices of the rocks and into the clefts of the rocks - at the face of fear of Yah Veh; and for the majesty of his pomp when he rises to terrify the earth.

¹³ So my people are exiled, because they have no knowledge: and their honorable men are famished, and their multitude parched with thirst.

⁹ And he says, Go, and say to this people, In hearing, you hear, and discern not; and in seeing, you see, and know not. ¹⁰ Fatten the heart of this people and burden their ears and stroke their eyes; lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and discern with their heart - and convert and heal.

¹⁵ And Yah Veh devotes the tongue of the Misrayim sea; and with the strength of his wind/spirit he shakes his hand over the river and smites it in the seven wadies; and has men tread it in shoes. ¹⁶ And so be it, a highway for the survivors of his people of Ashshur who survive - as it became to Yisra El in the day he ascended from the land of Misrayim.

³² What then, answers one, of the angels of the goyim? That Yah Veh founded Siyon, and the humble of his people seek refuge therein.

¹¹ Surely the governors of Soan are fools, the counsel of the wise counsellors of Paroh become brutish: how say you to Paroh, I am the son of the wise - the son of ancient sovereigns? ¹² Where are they? Where are your wise? Yes, have them tell you, I beseech, and have them know what Yah Veh Sabaoth counselled upon Misrayim. ¹³ The governors of Soan become folly; the governors of Noph become deceived; they also stray the Misrayim - the chiefs of her scions. ¹⁴ Yah Veh mixes a spirit of perversities in their midst: and they stray Misrayim in every work as an intoxicate staggering in his vomit;

¹⁵ You increased the goyim, O Yah Veh, you increased the goyim: you are honored: you removed it afar to all the ends of the earth.

¹⁵ because you say, We cut a covenant with death and with sheol we work seers: when the overflowing whip passes through, it comes not to us: for we set lies our refuge, and under falsehood we hide ourselves. ¹⁶ So Adonay Yah Veh says thus, Behold, I lay a stone in Siyon for a foundation - a proofed stone; an esteemed corner; a founded foundation: he who trusts, hastens not. ¹⁷ And I set judgment to the line and justness to the plumb line: and the hail snatches away the refuge of lies, and the waters overflow the covert:

¹⁰ For Yah Veh libates the spirit of sound sleep upon you: and binds your eyes - the prophets and your heads - the seers, he covers.

¹⁴ - so behold, I add to do a marvel among this people - a marvellous marvel: for the wisdom of their wise destructs and the understanding of their discerning hides.

²⁹ You are as a song in the night when a holy celebration is hallowed; and cheerfulness of heart as when one goes with a pipe to come into the mountain of Yah Veh, to the Rock of Yisra El.

² and man is as a refuge from the wind and a covert from the flood; as rivulets of water in a parch as the shadow of a heavy rock in a languid land:

¹⁵ until the spirit pours out on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes an orchard/Karmel, and the orchard/Karmel is fabricated for a forest.

²² For Yah Veh our judge; Yah Veh our statute setter; Yah Veh our sovereign; he saves us.

⁶ then the lame leap as a hart and the tongue of the mute shouts: for the waters split in the wilderness and wadies in the plain: ⁷ and the mirage becomes a marsh; and the thirsty, fountains of water: in the habitation of rest wherein monsters repose, grass with stalks and bulrushes.

¹⁹ Where are the elohim of Hamath and Arphad? Where are the elohim of Sepharvayim? Rescued they Shomeron from my hand? ²⁰ Who are they, among all the elohim of these lands, who rescued their land from my hand, that Yah Veh rescue Yeru Shalem from my hand?

¹⁶ O Yah Veh Sabaoth, Elohim of Yisra El, who settles on the cherubim - you Elohim - you only of all the sovereigndoms of the earth; who worked the heavens and earth:

¹⁸ Truly, O Yah Veh, the sovereigns of Ashshur parched all the lands, and their lands; ¹⁹ and gave their elohim into the fire: for they are no elohim - only the work of human hands, timber and stone: they destroyed them. ²⁰ And now, O Yah Veh our Elohim, save us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth know that you are Yah Veh - you only.

²⁰ And now, O Yah Veh our Elohim, save us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth know that you are Yah Veh - you only.

³⁸ And so be it, as he prostrates in the house of Nisroch his elohim, that his sons Adram Melech and Shareser smite him with the sword; and they escape into the land of Ararat: and Esar Chaddon his son reigns in his stead.

¹⁹ The engraver pours a sculptile; and the refiner overlays with gold and refines silver chains. ²⁰ He who is so cut off that he has no exaltment chooses a tree that rots not; he seeks a wise engraver to prepare a sculptile that topples not.

²² It is he who settles on the circle of the earth, and the settlers are as locusts who spread the heavens as a veil, - spreads them as a tent to settle in:

⁴ Who made it and worked it - calling the generations from the beginning? I Yah Veh, the first, and the final; I am he. ⁵ The islands see and awe; the ends of the earth tremble, they approach; yes, they come. ⁶ Every man helps his friend; and says to his brother, Courage! ⁷ And the engraver strengthens the refiner, and him who smoothes with the hammer and him who hammers the anvil, saying, Good to join/unite: and he strengthens it with nails, that it topple not.

⁷ And the engraver strengthens the refiner, and him who smoothes with the hammer and him who hammers the anvil, saying, Good to join/unite: and he strengthens it with nails, that it topple not. ⁸ And you, Yisra El - my servant, Yaaqov whom I chose, the seed of Abraham my beloved,

⁸ And you, Yisra El - my servant, Yaaqov whom I chose, the seed of Abraham my beloved, ⁹ whom I strengthened from the ends of the earth and called you from the nobles, and I said to you, You are my servant; I chose you and spurned you not: ¹⁰ awe not; for I am with you: look not around; for I am your Elohim: I strengthen you; yes, I help you; yes, I uphold you with the right of my justness.

¹⁰ awe not; for I am with you: look not around; for I am your Elohim: I strengthen you; yes, I help you; yes, I uphold you with the right of my justness. ¹¹ Behold, all who inflame against you shame and confound: they become as naught; and the men who strive with you destruct. ¹² You seek them, and find them not - these men who contend with you: these men who war against you are as deceased and as of naught. ¹³ For I, Yah Veh your Elohim, hold your right, saying to you, Awe not; I help you. ¹⁴ Awe not, you maggot Yaaqov, and you men of Yisra El; I help you - an oracle of Yah Veh your redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El.

¹⁴ Awe not, you maggot Yaaqov, and you men of Yisra El; I help you - an oracle of Yah Veh your redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El.

¹⁷ The humble and needy seek water and there is none; and their tongue dries for thirst and I Yah Veh answer them; I Elohim of Yisra El forsake them not.

²¹ Approach with your plea, says Yah Veh; bring forth your mights, says the Sovereign of Yaaqov. ²² They bring forth, and tell us what happened: - the former, what they are, to set our heart on them, and know the latter end of them; or have us hear of the coming.

²⁴ Behold, you are of naught, and your deeds a hissing: an abhorrence to him who chooses you.

²⁶ Who told from the beginning, so that we know? and from the face, so that we say, Just? Yes, there is no one who tells; yes, there is no one who hearkens; yes, there is no one who hears your sayings.

²⁹ Behold, they are all mischief; their works cease: their libations are wind and waste.

⁵ Thus says El Yah Veh, who created the heavens and spread them; who expanded the earth and its offspring; who gave breath to the people thereon, and spirit to them who walk therein:

⁸ I - Yah Veh: that is my name: and I neither give my honor to another, nor my halal to sculptiles. ⁹ Behold, the former becomes, and the new I tell: ere they sprout, I have you hear of them. ¹⁰
SING AND HALAL TO YAH VEH
Sing to Yah Veh a new song and his halal from the end of the earth; you who descend to the sea, and its fulness; the islands, and the settlers. ¹¹ The wilderness and the cities lift, Qedar settles the courts: the settlers of the rock shout; they shout from the top of the mountains: ¹² they set honor to Yah Veh and tell his halal in the islands:

¹⁵ I parch the mountains and hills and I wither all their herbs; and I set the rivers islands and I wither the marshes:

¹⁷ They apostatize backward shamingly they shame - who confide in sculptiles, - who say to the moltens, You are our elohim. ¹⁸ Hear, you deaf! And look, you blind, and see!

²³ Who among you hearkens to this? Who hearkens and hears afterward?

¹
YAH VEH, THE REDEEMER
And now thus says Yah Veh who created you, O Yaaqov, and he who formed you, O Yisra El, Awe not, for I redeemed you; I called your name; you are mine.

⁵ Awe not: for I am with you: I bring your seed from the rising, and gather you from the dusk;

⁷ - every one called by my name: for I created him for my honor, I formed him; yes, I worked him. ⁸ Bring forth the blind people with eyes, and the deaf with ears. ⁹ All the goyim gather; and the nations gather: who among them tells this and has us hear the former? They give their witnesses, to justify themselves: and they hear, and say, Truth. ¹⁰ You are my witnesses - an oracle of Yah Veh and my servant whom I chose: so that you know and trust me, and discern I am he: ere my face, no El was formed, and none after me.

¹⁰ You are my witnesses - an oracle of Yah Veh and my servant whom I chose: so that you know and trust me, and discern I am he: ere my face, no El was formed, and none after me. ¹¹ I - I - Yah Veh; and except me, there is no saviour. ¹² I - I told; and saved; and I hearkened when there is no stranger among you: and you are my witnesses - an oracle of Yah Veh and I - El.

¹⁴ Thus says Yah Veh, your redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El; for your sake I sent to Babel, and brought down all their fugitives, and the Kesediym, whose shouting is in the ships.

¹⁴ Thus says Yah Veh, your redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El; for your sake I sent to Babel, and brought down all their fugitives, and the Kesediym, whose shouting is in the ships. ¹⁵ I - Yah Veh, your Holy One, the creator of Yisra El, your Sovereign.

¹⁵ I - Yah Veh, your Holy One, the creator of Yisra El, your Sovereign. ¹⁶ Thus says Yah Veh, who gives a way in the sea and a path in the strong waters:

¹⁹ behold, I work a new work! Now it sprouts; Know you not? I even set a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desolation: ²⁰ the live beings of the field honor me - the monsters and the daughters of the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness and rivers in the desolation, to give my people drink - my chosen. ²¹ I formed this people for myself; they scribe my halal.

²⁵ I, I am he who wipes out your rebellions for my own sake, and remembers not your sins.

¹
YISRA EL, THE CHOSEN OF YAH VEH
And now hear, O Yaaqov my servant; and Yisra El, whom I chose: ² thus says Yah Veh who worked you and formed you from the belly; who helps you: Awe not, O Yaaqov, my servant; and you, Yeshurun, whom I chose.

² thus says Yah Veh who worked you and formed you from the belly; who helps you: Awe not, O Yaaqov, my servant; and you, Yeshurun, whom I chose.

⁶ Thus says Yah Veh the Sovereign of Yisra El, and his redeemer Yah Veh Sabaoth; I - the first, and I - the final; and except me, there is no Elohim.

⁸ Neither fear, nor frighten: Heard you not ever since, what I told you? You are my witnesses. Is there an Elohah except me? Yes, there is no rock; I know none. ⁹ They who form a sculptile all of them are a waste; and their desires benefit not: and they are their own witnesses; they neither see, nor know to shame. ¹⁰ Who ever formed an el or poured a sculptile that is not beneficial?

¹⁸ They neither know nor discern: for he daubs their eyes from seeing, and their hearts from comprehending:

²⁰ He grazes on ashes: a mocked heart perverts him that he neither rescues his soul, nor says, Is there not a falsehood in my right? ²¹ Remember these, O Yaaqov and Yisra El; for you are my servant: I formed you; you are my servant: O Yisra El, I forget you not.

²⁴ Thus says Yah Veh your redeemer - he who formed you from the belly, I - Yah Veh who worked all; who alone spread the heavens; who expanded the earth by myself:

¹
KORESH, THE ANOINTED OF YAH VEH
Thus says Yah Veh to his anointed, to Koresh, whose right I strengthened, to subdue goyim at his face; yes, to loose the loins of sovereigns, in opening, to open the doors at his face; and not shut the portals:

³ and I give you the treasures of darkness and hidden treasures of coverts so that you know, I - Yah Veh, who calls you by your name, Elohim of Yisra El.

⁵ I - Yah Veh, and there is no one else, there is no Elohim except me: I girded you, though you know me not: ⁶ so that they know from the rising of the sun and from the dusk that there is no one final except me: I - Yah Veh, and there is no one else:

¹² I worked the earth, and created humanity thereon: I, my hands, spread the heavens, and all their host I misvahed. ¹³ I waken him in justness and straighten all his ways: he builds my city and he sends away my exiles - neither for price nor bribe, says Yah Veh Sabaoth.

¹⁶ They shame; they even confound - all of them: the engravers of molds go to shame together.

¹⁸ For thus says Yah Veh who created the heavens; Elohim himself who formed the earth and worked it; he established it; he created it not a waste; he formed it to settle therein: I - Yah Veh; and there is no one else.

²⁰ Gather and come; draw near together, you escapees of the goyim: they who bear the timber of their sculptile, know not, and pray to an el who saves not. ²¹ You, tell; bring near; yes, they counsel together. Who had this to be heard from antiquity? Who told it from that time? Was it not I - Yah Veh? - and no Elohim except me; a just El and a Saviour; there is no one final except me.

²¹ You, tell; bring near; yes, they counsel together. Who had this to be heard from antiquity? Who told it from that time? Was it not I - Yah Veh? - and no Elohim except me; a just El and a Saviour; there is no one final except me. ²² Face me, and be saved, all you finalities of the earth: for I - El; and there is no one else.

¹
THE IDOLS OF BABEL
Bel kneels; Nebo stoops; their idols are for the live beings and for the animals: your loads are heavily loaded - a burden to the languid. ² They stoop; they kneel together; they cannot rescue the burden; and their souls go into captivity. ³ Hearken to me, O house of Yaaqov, and all survivors of the house of Yisra El - who are loaded from the belly; who are raised from the womb: ⁴ and even to your agedness, I am he; and to greyness I bear: I work and I bear; yes, I bear and rescue you.

⁶ They scatter gold from the pouch and weigh silver in the beam and hire a refiner; and he works an el thereof: they prostrate; yes, they prostrate: ⁷ they bear him on the shoulder; they bear him and set him in his place and he stands; he departs not from his place: yes, one cries to him; yet he answers not - saves him not from his tribulation.

⁷ they bear him on the shoulder; they bear him and set him in his place and he stands; he departs not from his place: yes, one cries to him; yet he answers not - saves him not from his tribulation. ⁸ Remember this, be manly: restore heart, O you rebels.

⁸ Remember this, be manly: restore heart, O you rebels.

⁸ Remember this, be manly: restore heart, O you rebels. ⁹ Remember the former from eternity: for I - El, and there is no one else; I - Elohim the final:

⁹ Remember the former from eternity: for I - El, and there is no one else; I - Elohim the final:

⁹ Remember the former from eternity: for I - El, and there is no one else; I - Elohim the final: ¹⁰ telling the end from the beginning, and what formerly was not worked from antiquity, saying, My counsel rises and I work all my delight: ¹¹ calling a swooper from the rising and the man who executes my counsel from a land afar: yes, I word; yes, I bring it; I formed; yes, I also work it.

¹² Stand, I beseech, with your charms and with the abundance of your sorceries wherein you labored from your youth; if perhaps you benefit; if perhaps you terrify. ¹³ You weary in the abundance of your counsels. I beseech you, have the horoscopists of the heavens, the seers of stars, the knowers of months stand up and save you from these that come on you. ¹⁴ Behold, they are as stubble; the fire burns them; they rescue not their souls from the hand of the flame: there is neither coal to heat, nor flame to sit in front of.

³ I told of the former ever since; and they come from my mouth, and I hear them; I work them suddenly; and they become. ⁴ Because I know you are hard, and your neck an iron sinew and your forehead copper; ⁵ I even tell you ever since; so that you hear ere it becomes: lest you say, My idol worked them! And my sculptile and my libation misvahed them!

⁵ I even tell you ever since; so that you hear ere it becomes: lest you say, My idol worked them! And my sculptile and my libation misvahed them! ⁶ Hear you? See you all this? - and tell it not? I have you hear the new from this time, - the guarded, and you know them not. ⁷ They are now created - not from the beginning from the face of the day when you heard not; lest you say, Behold, I knew them. ⁸ Yes, you heard not; yes, you knew not; yes, from the time your ear was not opened: for I knew that in dealing covertly, that you deal covertly - a rebel from the belly.

¹² Hearken to me, O Yaaqov and Yisra El, my called; I am he; I - first; yes, I - final. ¹³ Also, my hand founded the earth and my right palm spanned the heavens: I call to them; they stand together. ¹⁴ All of you, gather and hear; who among them tells these? Yah Veh loved him: he works his delight on Babel, and his arm on the Kesediym. ¹⁵ I - I worded; yes, I called him: I brought him; and prospered his way. ¹⁶ Approach me; hear this; I worded not covertly from the beginning; from the time of its being, there I am: and now Adonay Yah Veh and his Spirit send me. ¹⁷ Thus says Yah Veh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El; I - Yah Veh your Elohim teaching you to benefit, aiming you in the way to go.

¹⁷ Thus says Yah Veh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El; I - Yah Veh your Elohim teaching you to benefit, aiming you in the way to go. ¹⁸ O had you hearkened to my misvoth then your shalom had become as a river, and your justness as the waves of the sea:

²⁰ Come from Babel! Flee from the Kesediym! Tell with a voice of shouting what we hear! Utter it to the end of the earth! Say, Yah Veh redeems his servant Yaaqov. ²¹ And they thirst not; he carried them through the parched areas: he flowed the waters from the rock for them: he split the rock and the waters flowed.

¹
THE SERVANT OF YAH VEH
Hearken, O islands, to me; and hearken, you nations, from afar; Yah Veh called me from the belly; from the inwards of my mother he mentioned my name:

³ And he says to me, You are my servant, O Yisra El, in whom I am adorned.

⁷ Thus says Yah Veh, the Redeemer of Yisra El, his Holy One, to the despised in soul to the abhorrent of the goyim to a servant of sovereigns, Sovereigns see and rise; and governors prostrate; because of Yah Veh who is trustworthy - the Holy One of Yisra El, and he chooses you.

¹⁰ they neither famish nor thirst; neither glare nor sun smites them: for he who mercies them, drives them; and by the springs of water he guides them.

¹³ Shout, O heavens! And twirl, O earth! And break forth into shouting, O mountains! For Yah Veh sighs over his people and mercies his humbled.

¹⁵ Forgets a woman her suckling? Mercies she not the son of her belly? Yes, they forget; but I - I forget you not. ¹⁶ Behold, I engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually in front of me.

²⁶ and they who oppress you, I feed with their own flesh; and intoxicate with their own blood as with squeezed juice: that all flesh know I - Yah Veh your Saviour and your Redeemer, the Almighty One of Yaaqov.

¹¹ And the redeemed of Yah Veh return and come with shouting to Siyon; with eternal cheerfulness on their head: they attain rejoicing and cheerfulness; grief and sighing flee away.

¹³ And forgets Yah Veh your worker who spread the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth? - who feared continually every day at the face of the fury of the oppressor as if he were prepared to ruin? And where is the fury of the oppressor?

¹⁵ And I - Yah Veh your Elohim, who split the sea; who roared the waves: Yah Veh Sabaoth is his name.

³ For you separate on the right and on the left; and your seed succeeds the goyim and settle in the desolated cities.

⁵ For your Worker is your master; Yah Veh Sabaoth is his name; and your Redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra El; the Elohim of the whole earth he is called.

⁸ in an outburst of rage I hid my face from you for a blink; and in eternal mercy I mercy you, says Yah Veh your Redeemer.

¹¹ O you humbled; stormtossed; not sighed over: behold, I crouch your stones with stribium, and lay your foundations with sapphires: ¹² and I set your sun of rubies, and your portals of carbuncle stones, and all your borders of stones of delight:

³ Spread your ear, and come to me; hear, and your soul lives; and I cut an eternal covenant with you - the trustworthy mercies of David.

⁷ the wicked forsake his way; and the man of mischief, his fabrications: and he returns to Yah Veh, and he mercies him; and to our Elohim, for he abounds to forgive.

¹² For you go forth with cheerfulness and lead forth with shalom: the mountains and the hills break forth into shouting at your face; and all the trees of the field clap their palms. ¹³ Instead of the thorn, the fir tree ascends, and instead of the brier, the myrtle tree ascends: and it becomes to Yah Veh for a name, for an eternal sign, not cut off.

¹¹ Yes, they are dogs, strong of soul, who know not satisfaction; and they are tenders who know not to discern: they all face their own way, every man for his gain, from his end.

¹¹ and Yah Veh guides you continually and satisfies your soul in parch and fattens your bones: and you become as a saturated garden and as a spring of water whose waters fail not. ¹² And from you they build the original parched areas: and you raise the foundations of generation and generation; and they call you, The waller of the breach! The restorer of paths to settle!

³ For you profane your palms with blood and your fingers with perversity; your lips word falsehoods your tongue mutters wickedness: ⁴ no one calls for justness and no one pleads for trustworthiness: they confide in waste and word vanity; they conceive toil and birth mischief:

¹³ In rebelling and lying against Yah Veh; and departing from our Elohim: wording oppression and revolt; conceiving and muttering from the heart words of falsehood:

²⁰ And the Redeemer comes to Siyon, and to them who turn from rebellion in Yaaqov - an oracle of Yah Veh.

²⁰ And the Redeemer comes to Siyon, and to them who turn from rebellion in Yaaqov - an oracle of Yah Veh. ²¹ As for me, this is my covenant with them, says Yah Veh; My spirit which is on you, and my words which I set in your mouth, depart, neither from your mouth nor from the mouth of your seed, nor from the mouth of the seed of your seed, says Yah Veh, from henceforth and eternally.

²¹ As for me, this is my covenant with them, says Yah Veh; My spirit which is on you, and my words which I set in your mouth, depart, neither from your mouth nor from the mouth of your seed, nor from the mouth of the seed of your seed, says Yah Veh, from henceforth and eternally.

¹⁰ And the sons of strangers build your walls and their sovereigns minister to you: for in my rage I smote you and in my pleasure I mercied you:

¹⁶ and you suck the milk of the goyim and suck the breast of sovereigns: and you know I - Yah Veh - your Saviour and your Redeemer - the Almighty One of Yaaqov.

²¹ and all your people just - successors of the land eternally - the branch of my planting; the work of my hands; to be adorned.

³ to set to them who mourn in Siyon; to give to them adornment for ashes; the oil of rejoicing for mourning; the mantle of halal for the spirit of heaviness; and he calls them, Mighty Oaks of Justness - the planting of Yah Veh to adorn. ⁴ And they build the original parched areas; they raise the former desolated areas; and they renovate the parched cities - the desolated areas of generation and generation.

⁹ and their seed is known among the goyim and their offspring among the people: all who see them acknowledge them, that they are the seed Yah Veh blesses.

¹¹ For as the earth brings forth her sprout and as the garden sprouts the seedling thus Adonay Yah Veh sprouts justness and halals in front of all the goyim.

¹¹ and he remembered the days of antiquity - Mosheh - his people. Where is he who ascended them from the sea with the tender of his flock? Where is he who set his holy Spirit within him?

¹⁶ Assuredly you are our father; though Abraham knew us not and Yisra El acknowledged us not: you, O Yah Veh, are our father, our redeemer; your name is from eternity.

²³ They neither labor in vain nor birth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of Yah Veh, and their offspring with them.

⁵ Before I formed you in the belly, I knew you; and ere you came from the womb, I hallowed you, I gave you, a prophet to the goyim.

¹¹ Changes a goyim their elohim to a non-elohim? and my people change their honor for that which benefits not.

²⁶ As the thief shames when he is found out, thus the house of Yisra El shames - they, their sovereigns, their governors, and their priests, and their prophets: ²⁷ saying to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You birthed me: for they face the nape of their neck to me and not their face: and in the time of their evil they say, Rise! and, Save us!

²⁷ saying to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You birthed me: for they face the nape of their neck to me and not their face: and in the time of their evil they say, Rise! and, Save us! ²⁸ And where are the elohim you worked for yourself? Have them rise, if they can save you in the time of your evil: for the number of your cities are your elohim, O Yah Hudah.

¹
THE WHOREDOM OF YISRA EL
Saying, If a man sends away his woman, and she goes from him, and becomes to another man, returns he to her again? In profaning, is not that land profaned? And you whore with many friends and return to me - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹² Go and call out these words northward, and say, Return, you apostate Yisra El - an oracle of Yah Veh. I fell not my face on you: for I am merciful - an oracle of Yah Veh. I guard not eternally: ¹³ only, acknowledge your perversity, that you rebel against Yah Veh your Elohim and scatter your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and hearken not to my voice - an oracle of Yah Veh. ¹⁴ Turn, O apostate sons - an oracle of Yah Veh for I am married to you: and I take you, one of a city and two of a family and I bring you to Siyon:

⁷ The lion ascends from his thicket and the ruiner of the goyim is on his way; he comes from his place to set your land desolate; and set your cities desolate; without a settler.

²¹ Hear this, I beseech, O foolish people, and without heart; having eyes, and seeing not; having ears, and hearing not:

³ for the statutes of the people are vain: for one cuts a tree from the forest - the work of the hands of the engraver with the ax:

³ for the statutes of the people are vain: for one cuts a tree from the forest - the work of the hands of the engraver with the ax: ⁴ they beautify with silver and with gold; they strengthen with nails and with hammers so that it wiggles not:

⁴ they beautify with silver and with gold; they strengthen with nails and with hammers so that it wiggles not: ⁵ round as the palm tree, but word not: in bearing, they bear, because they pace not. Awe them not, for they vilify not; yes, it is not in them to well-please.

⁵ round as the palm tree, but word not: in bearing, they bear, because they pace not. Awe them not, for they vilify not; yes, it is not in them to well-please.

⁵ round as the palm tree, but word not: in bearing, they bear, because they pace not. Awe them not, for they vilify not; yes, it is not in them to well-please. ⁶ Because there is no one like you, O Yah Veh; you are great, and your name is great in might.

⁶ Because there is no one like you, O Yah Veh; you are great, and your name is great in might. ⁷ Who awes you not, O Sovereign of goyim? For it becomes you: for among all the wise of the goyim, and in all their sovereigndoms, there is no one like you.

⁷ Who awes you not, O Sovereign of goyim? For it becomes you: for among all the wise of the goyim, and in all their sovereigndoms, there is no one like you.

⁸ And as one, they are brutish and foolish: the tree is a discipline of vanities.

⁸ And as one, they are brutish and foolish: the tree is a discipline of vanities. ⁹ They bring expanded silver from Tarshish and gold from Uphaz - the work of the engraver and of the hands of the refiner: blue and purple is their robe: they are all the work of wise. ¹⁰ And Yah Veh is the Elohim of truth; he is the living Elohim and eternal sovereign: the earth quakes at his rage and the goyim contain not his rage. ¹¹ Thus you say to them, The elah who made not the heavens and the earth destructs from the earth and from under these heavens.

¹⁴ All humanity is brutish in knowledge: every refiner is shamed by the sculptile: for his libation is falsehood and there is no spirit in them:

¹⁴ All humanity is brutish in knowledge: every refiner is shamed by the sculptile: for his libation is falsehood and there is no spirit in them: ¹⁵ they are vanity, the work of frauds: in the time of their visitation they destruct.

²² Are there any among the vanities of the goyim who can cause downpour? Or can the heavens give showers? Are you not he, O Yah Veh our Elohim? So we await you: for you worked all these.

¹⁹ O Yah Veh, my strength, and my stronghold; and my retreat in the day of tribulation, the goyim come to you from the finalities of the earth, and say, our fathers inherited falsehoods; vanity, wherein no one benefits.

¹⁹ O Yah Veh, my strength, and my stronghold; and my retreat in the day of tribulation, the goyim come to you from the finalities of the earth, and say, our fathers inherited falsehoods; vanity, wherein no one benefits. ²⁰ Works humanity elohim for himself? They are non-elohim!

²³ Yet, O Yah Veh, you know all their counsel against me - to execute me: neither kapar/atone their perversity nor wipe out their sin from your face; fell them at your face; work thus with them in the time of your wrath.

⁹ And you, hearken neither to your prophets nor to your diviners nor to your dreamers nor to your cloudgazers nor to your sorcerers who speak to you, saying, You, serve not the sovereign of Babel: ¹⁰ for they prophesy a falsehood to you to remove you far from your soil: and that I drive you out and you destruct.

⁹ The prophet who prophesies of shalom, when that word of the prophet becomes, then it is known that Yah Veh in truth sent that prophet. ¹⁰ And Hanan Yah the prophet takes the yoke pole from off the neck of the prophet Yirme Yah and breaks it: ¹¹ and in the eyes of all the people, Hanan Yah says, saying, Thus says Yah Veh: Even thus I break the yoke of Nebukadnets Tsar sovereign of Babel from the neck of all goyim within the space of two years of days. - and the prophet Yirme Yah goes his way. ¹² And so be the word of Yah Veh to Yirme Yah, after Hanan Yah the prophet breaks the yoke pole from off the neck of the prophet Yirme Yah, saying, ¹³ Go and say to Hanan Yah, saying, Thus says Yah Veh: You broke yoke poles of timber; and in their stead, I work yoke poles of iron. ¹⁴ For thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth Elohim of Yisra El: I give a yoke pole of iron on the neck of all these goyim, to serve Nebukadnets Tsar sovereign of Babel; and they serve him: and I also give him the live beings of the field. ¹⁵ And the prophet Yirme Yah says to Hanan Yah the prophet, Hear, I beseech, Hanan Yah; Yah Veh sent you not; and you have this people confide in a falsehood: ¹⁶ so thus says Yah Veh: Behold, I send you from off the face of the soil: this year you die, because you word revolt against Yah Veh. ¹⁷ - and Hanan Yah the prophet dies that same year in the seventh month.

¹⁰ And you, neither awe, O my servant Yaaqov - an oracle of Yah Veh; nor dismay, O Yisra El: for behold, I am your saviour from afar and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Yaaqov returns and rests and relaxes and no one trembles him.

¹⁰ And you, neither awe, O my servant Yaaqov - an oracle of Yah Veh; nor dismay, O Yisra El: for behold, I am your saviour from afar and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Yaaqov returns and rests and relaxes and no one trembles him. ¹¹ For I am with you - an oracle of Yah Veh to save you: though I work a final finish of all goyim where I scattered you, yet I not work a final finish of you: and I discipline you in judgment, and in exonerating, I exonerate you not.

¹⁸ Thus says Yah Veh: Behold, I restore the captivity of the tents of Yaaqov and mercy his tabernacles; and build the city on her own heap, and settle the citadel according to the judgment.

⁴ in building, I build you again, O virgin of Yisra El: adorn you again with your tambourines and you come forth in the round dancing of entertainers:

³⁸
THE NEW CITY
Behold, days come, - an oracle of Yah Veh that the city to Yah Veh is built from the tower of Hanan El to the portal of the corner: ³⁹ and the measuring line goes forth in front of it to the hill Gareb; and surrounds Goah. ⁴⁰ And the whole valley of the carcases and of the fat and all the fields to the wadi of Qidron to the corner of the horse portal toward the rising are holy to Yah Veh - neither uprooted nor thrown down any more eternally.

¹⁵ For thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth Elohim of Yisra El: Again houses and fields and vineyards are chatteled in this land.

⁴⁴ Men chattel fields for silver and inscribe scrolls and seal them; and witnesses witness in the land of Ben Yamin and all around Yeru Shalem and in the cities of Yah Hudah and in the cities of the mountains and in the cities of the lowland and in the cities of the south: and I restore their captivity - an oracle of Yah Veh.

⁷ and I restore the captivity of Yah Hudah and the captivity of Yisra El; and build them as at the first: ⁸ and I purify them from all their perversity whereby they sinned against me; and I forgive all their perversities whereby they sinned and whereby they rebelled against me.

²⁷ And you, awe not, O my servant Yaaqov; and be not dismayed, O Yisra El: for behold, I save you from afar and your seed from the land of their captivity: and Yaaqov returns; and rests and relaxes: and no one frightens him. ²⁸ Awe not, O Yaaqov my servant - an oracle of Yah Veh for I am with you; for I work a final finish of all the goyim wherever I drove you: and I work not a final finish of you and discipline you in judgment: and in exonerating, I exonerate you not.

⁷
MESSAGE AGAINST EDOM
Concerning Edom, thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: Is wisdom no more in Teman? Is counsel destroyed from the discerning? Is their wisdom spread thin?

⁵ they ask the way to Siyon with their faces toward, Come; we join ourselves to Yah Veh in an eternal covenant, not forgotten.

³⁴ Their Redeemer is strong; Yah Veh Sabaoth is his name: in pleading, he pleads their plea - to rest the land and quake the settlers of Babel.

³⁶ a sword is on their lies and they folly; a sword is on her mighty and they dismay;

³⁸ a parch is on her waters and they dry up; for it is the land of sculptiles and they halal bugaboos:

¹⁵
THE FORCE OF YAH VEH
He works the earth by his force; he establishes the world by his wisdom and spreads the heavens by his discernment:

¹⁷ All humanity is brutish by his knowledge; every refiner shames by the sculptile: for his libation is falsehood and there is no spirit in them.

³² and that the passages are apprehended and the marshes burned with fire and the men of war are terrified.

³⁶ So thus says Yah Veh: Behold, I plead your plea, and avenge your avengement: and I parch her sea and dry her fountains:

⁴⁸ And the heavens and the earth and all therein shout against Babel: for the ravagers come to her from the north - an oracle of Yah Veh.

⁵⁷ and I intoxicate her governors and her wise - her governors and her prefects and her mighty: and they sleep an eternal sleep and waken not - an oracle of the Sovereign whose name is Yah Veh Sabaoth.

⁴² we - we transgress and rebel: you - you forgive not; ⁴³ you cover with wrath and pursue us; you slaughter; you spare not: ⁴⁴ you cover with a cloud so our prayer passes not through:

¹² And says he to me, Son of humanity, you see what the elders of the house of Yisra El work in the dark - every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, Yah Veh sees us not; Yah Veh forsook the earth.

⁴ and as for your kindred, in the day you were birthed, neither was your navel cut nor were you baptized in water for inspection; in salting, you were not salted; in swathing, you were not swathed: ⁵ no eye spared you, to work one of these to you - to compassion you; but you were cast out in the face of the field, to the loathing of your soul, in the day you were birthed. ⁶ And I pass you by and see you trampled in your own blood; and I say to you in your blood, Live! Yes, I say to you in your blood, Live! ⁷ I give you to abound by the myriads as the sprout of the field: and you abound and greaten; and you come with ornaments of ornaments: your breasts fashion and your hair sprouts, and you are naked and nude. ⁸ And I pass you by and see you; behold, your time is a time of loves: and I spread my wing over you and cover your nakedness: yes, I oath to you and enter a covenant with you - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh and you become mine:

⁵ and he takes of the seed of the land and gives it in a fruitful field; he takes it by great waters and sets it as a willow tree;

⁵ and say to them, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: In the day I chose Yisra El, and lifted my hand to the seed of the house of Yaaqov, and made myself known to them in the land of Misrayim, when I lifted my hand to them, saying, I - Yah Veh your Elohim: ⁶ the day I lifted my hand to them, to bring them from the land of Misrayim to a land I explored for them - flowing with milk and honey - the splendor of all lands: ⁷ and I say to them, You, every man cast away the abominations of his eyes and foul not yourselves with the idols of Misrayim: I - Yah Veh your Elohim. ⁸ And they rebel against me and will to not hearken to me: they - every man neither cast away the abominations of their eyes, nor forsake the idols of Misrayim. And I say, I pour my fury on them to finish off my wrath against them midst the land of Misrayim. ⁹ And for sake of my name, I work to not profane it in the eyes of the goyim, among whom they are in whose eyes I make myself known to them in bringing them from the land of Misrayim: ¹⁰ and I bring them from the land of Misrayim and bring them into the wilderness: ¹¹ and I give them my statutes so that they know my judgments - which, if a human works, he lives in them: ¹² and also, I give them my shabbaths, to become a sign between me and between them so that they know that I Yah Veh hallow them.

²⁶ and I give all them all around my hill a blessing; and I descend the downpour in its time - downpours of blessing:

¹
PROPHECY AGAINST THE MOUNTAINS OF YISRA EL
And you, son of humanity, prophesy to the mountains of Yisra El, and say, You mountains of Yisra El, hear the word of Yah Veh:

⁸ and you, O mountains of Yisra El, give your branches and bear your fruit to my people of Yisra El; for they approach to come.

¹⁰ and I abound humanity on you - all the house of Yisra El - all thereof to settle the cities and build the parched areas:

³³ Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: In the day I purify you from all your perversities I also settle you in the cities, and build the parched areas: ³⁴ and the desolated land is served instead of becoming desolate in the eyes of all who pass by. ³⁵ And they say, This desolated land is as the garden of Eden; and the parched and desolated and demolished cities fortified and settled. ³⁶ And the goyim who survive all around you know that I - Yah Veh build the demolished and plant the desolated: I Yah Veh worded, and I work.

¹⁷ Thus says Adonay Yah Veh; Are you he of whom I worded in ancient time by the hand of my servants the prophets of Yisra El, who prophesied in those days - years that I bring you against them?

¹³ Yes, all the people of the land entomb them; and it becomes to them for a name the day they honor me - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.

²⁹ and I hide not my face from them any more: for I pour my spirit on the house of Yisra El - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.

⁴ and the man words to me, Son of humanity, see with your eyes and hear with your ears and set your heart on all I show you; for I bring you here to show you - to tell all you see to the house of Yisra El.

²⁰ And in all words of wisdom and of discernment the sovereign beseeches of them he finds them ten hands better than all the horoscopists and enchanters in all his sovereigndom:

¹⁰ The Kesediym answer in front of the sovereign, and say, There is not a man on the dry who can show the utterance of the sovereign: because no sovereign, great, or dominator, asks utterances as these of any horoscopist or enchanter or Kesediym: ¹¹ and it is an esteemed utterance the sovereign asks; and there is no one other who can show it in front of the sovereign - except the elahim who whirl not with flesh. ¹² So the sovereign rages - very enraged; and says to destroy all the magi of Babel:

²⁸ but there is an Elah in the heavens who exposes mysteries, and makes known to sovereign Nebukadnets Tsar what becomes in the final days. Your dream and the visions of your head on your bed are these:

⁴⁷ The sovereign answers Dani El, and says, Of a truth, your Elah is an Elah of elahim, and a master of sovereigns, and an exposer of mysteries, that you can expose this mystery.

¹
THE IMAGE OF GOLD OF NEBUKADNETS TSAR
Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign makes an image of gold its height, sixty cubits; its breadth, six cubits: he raises it in the valley of Dura, in the jurisdiction of Babel.

¹
THE IMAGE OF GOLD OF NEBUKADNETS TSAR
Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign makes an image of gold its height, sixty cubits; its breadth, six cubits: he raises it in the valley of Dura, in the jurisdiction of Babel. ² And Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign sends to gather together the satraps, the prefects and the governors, the mighty diviners, the treasurers, the decreers, the sheriffs and all the dominators of the jurisdictions to come to the hanukkah of the image Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign raised. ³ Then the satraps, the prefects and governors, the mighty diviners, the treasurers, the decreers, the sheriffs and all the dominators of the jurisdictions gather together to the hanukkah of the image Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign raised; and they rise in front of the image that Nebukadnets Tsar raised. ⁴ And an announcer calls out with valour, To you they say, O people, nations, and tongues, ⁵ at the time you hear the voice of the horn, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, symphonia, and all species of psalming, fall down and prostrate to the golden image Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign raised: ⁶ and whoever falls not down and prostrates that same blink is hurled midst a burning fiery furnace. ⁷ Therefore at that appointment, all the people hear the voice of the horn, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all species of psalming, and all the people, the nations and the tongues fall down and prostrate to the golden image Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign raised.

¹⁴ Nebukadnets Tsar answers and says to them, Is it your intent, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed Nego, to neither serve my elahim nor prostrate to the golden image I raised?

¹⁶ Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed Nego answer and say to the sovereign, O Nebukadnets Tsar, we need not respond to you in this decision: ¹⁷ and so be it, our Elah whom we serve is able to liberate us from the burning fiery furnace, and liberate us from your hand, O sovereign.

¹⁷ and so be it, our Elah whom we serve is able to liberate us from the burning fiery furnace, and liberate us from your hand, O sovereign. ¹⁸ And behold, if not, know this, O sovereign, that we neither serve your elahim nor prostrate to the golden image you raised. ¹⁹ Then Nebukadnets Tsar fills with fury, and changes the image of his face against Shadrach, Meshach and Abed Nego: he answers and says for them to kindle the furnace seven above the usual kindling. ²⁰ And to the most mighty mighty of valour among his valiant, he says to shackle Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed Nego, and to hurl them into the burning fiery furnace. ²¹ Then they shackle these mighty in their mantles, their undergarments and their hats and their robes and hurl them midst the burning fiery furnace. ²² So because the utterance of the sovereign is so severe and the furnace exceedingly kindled the flame of the fire severs the mighty who take Shadrach, Meshach and Abed Nego. ²³ And these three mighty, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed Nego fall down shackled midst the burning fiery furnace. ²⁴ Then Nebukadnets Tsar the sovereign marvels and rises hastily, and answers, saying to his cousellors, Hurled we not three mighty bound midst the fire? They answer and say to the sovereign, Certainly, O sovereign. ²⁵ He answers and says, Behold, I see four mighty released, walking midst the fire with no damage; and the appearance of the fourth is as the Bar of Elah. ²⁶ Then Nebukadnets Tsar approaches the portal of the burning fiery furnace; and he answers and says, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed Nego, you servants of Elyon Elah, emerge, and come. - then Shadrach, Meshach and Abed Nego emerge from midst the fire. ²⁷ And they gather together, these satraps, prefects and governors and the counsellors of the sovereign, to see these mighty on whose bodies neither the fire domininates nor an hair of their head singes nor their mantles change nor the scent of fire passes on them. ²⁸ Nebukadnets Tsar answers and says, Blessed - Elah of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed Nego who sent his angel to liberate his servants who attend him; and changes the utterance of the sovereign; and gives their bodies that they neither serve nor prostrate to any elah except their own Elah. ²⁹
THE DECREE OF NEBUKADNETS TSAR
I set a decree, To every people, nation, and tongue, who say misleadingly against the Elah of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed Nego that they be served in pieces; and equate their houses to a cesspool: because that there is no other Elah who can rescue thus.

⁷ then the horoscopists, the enchanters, the Kesediym and the discerners enter: and I say the dream in front of them; and they make not known to me the interpretation:

²⁵ and they expel you from men and you whirl with the live beings of the field; and they have you feed on herbage as bulls and they dye you with the dew of the heavens and seven times pass over you, until you know that Elyon dominates in the sovereigndom of men, and gives it to whomever he wills.

¹
THE FEAST OF BEL SHATS TSAR
Bel Shats Tsar the sovereign makes a great feast to a thousand of his nobles; and drinks fermentation in front of the thousand. ² Bel Shats Tsar, as he tastes the fermentation, says to bring the golden and silver vessels his father Nebukadnets Tsar removed from the manse in Yeru Shalem; for the sovereign and his nobles, his mistresses and his concubines to drink. ³ Then they bring the golden vessels they removed from the manse of the house of Elah at Yeru Shalem; and the sovereign and his nobles, his mistresses and his concubines drink in them. ⁴ They drink fermentation; and laud the elahim of gold and of silver, of copper, of iron, of timber and of stone. ⁵
THE SCRIBING ON THE WALL
In the same blink digits of the hand of a man emerge, and inscribe in front of the menorah on the plaster of the wall of the manse of the sovereign: and the sovereign sees the palm of the hand that inscribes: ⁶ then the cheerfulness of the sovereign changes and his intentions terrify him - so that the vertebrae of his loins release, and his knees knock one against another.

⁶ then the cheerfulness of the sovereign changes and his intentions terrify him - so that the vertebrae of his loins release, and his knees knock one against another. ⁷ The sovereign calls out with valour to have the enchanters the Kesediym and the discerners enter: and the sovereign answers, and says to the magi of Babel, Whatever man calls out this inscribing and shows me the interpretation enrobes with purple with a necklace of gold around his neck and dominates - third in the sovereigndom. ⁸ Then all the magi of the sovereign enter: but they can neither call out the inscribing nor make known the interpretation to the sovereign.

²³ and you lift yourself against the Master of the heavens; and they bring the vessels of his house in front of you; and you and your nobles, your mistresses and your concubines drink fermentation in them; and you laud the elahim of silver and gold, of copper, iron, timber and stone, which neither see nor hear nor know: and Elah in whose hand your breath is, and whose all your ways are, you esteem not.

²³ and you lift yourself against the Master of the heavens; and they bring the vessels of his house in front of you; and you and your nobles, your mistresses and your concubines drink fermentation in them; and you laud the elahim of silver and gold, of copper, iron, timber and stone, which neither see nor hear nor know: and Elah in whose hand your breath is, and whose all your ways are, you esteem not. ²⁴ Then the palm of the hand is sent in front of him; and this inscribing is signed: ²⁵ and this is the inscribing that is signed, MENE/NUMBERED, MENE/NUMBERED, TEKEL/BALANCED, UPHARSIN/SPLIT. ²⁶ This is the interpretation of the utterance: MENE/NUMBERED; Elah numbers your sovereigndom, and shalams: ²⁷ TEKEL/BALANCED; You are balanced in the balances, and found deficient: ²⁸ PERES/SPLIT; Your sovereigndom is split, and given to the Maday and Persians. ²⁹ Then Belte Shats Tsar says to enrobe Dani El with purple, with a necklace of gold around his neck; and announces concerning him, to become the third dominator in the sovereigndom. ³⁰ In that night, Bel Shats Tsar the sovereign of the Kesediym is severed.

¹⁶
DANI EL IN THE DUGOUT
Then the sovereign says to bring Dani El; and they hurl him into the dugout of lions. The sovereign answers and says to Dani El, Your Elah, whom you serve perpetually, he liberates you.

²⁰ and he approaches the dugout and with a contorted voice, cries to Dani El: and the sovereign answers and says to Dani El, O Dani El, servant of the living Elah, is your Elah, whom you serve continually, able to liberate you from the lions? ²¹
DANI EL LIBERATED FROM THE DUGOUT
Then Dani El utters to the sovereign, O sovereign, live eternally. ²² My Elah sent his angel, and shut the mouths of the lions that they not despoil me: because, in front of him, purity is found in me; and also in front of you, O sovereign, I did no wickedness.

²² My Elah sent his angel, and shut the mouths of the lions that they not despoil me: because, in front of him, purity is found in me; and also in front of you, O sovereign, I did no wickedness.

²⁷ He liberates and rescues; and he does omens and marvels in the heavens and in earth - who liberated Dani El from the hand of the lions.

²⁵ So know and comprehend, that from the proceeding of the word to restore and to build Yeru Shalem to the Messiah, the Eminent is seven weeks and sixty-two weeks - to restore and rebuild the broadway and the trench even in times of distress.

¹
THE VISION OF DANI EL OF ONE HUMAN AND MICHAH EL
In the third year of Koresh sovereign of Persia a word is exposed to Dani El, whose name is called Belte Shats Tsar; and the word is truth and the hostility is great: and he discerns the word and discernment of the vision.

³⁸ And in his station he honors the elohah of strongholds - an elohah whom his fathers knew not he honors with gold and silver and with esteemed stones and desires:

¹⁰ many purify themselves and whiten and refine; and the wicked do wickedly: and no one of the wicked discerns; and the enwisened discern comprehendingly.

¹² my people ask at their trees, and their staff tells them: for the spirit of whoredoms strays them and they whore from under their Elohim:

² and they say not in their hearts that I remember all their evil: their own exploits surround them; they are in front of my face:

⁴ they set sovereigns, but not by me: they set dominators, and I know not: they work idols of their silver and their gold and cut themselves off. ⁵ Cast your calf, O Shomeron; my wrath kindles against them: how long ere they are capable of innocency? ⁶ For even of Yisra El: the engraver works it; and it is not of Elohim: for the calf of Shomeron shatters.

¹ Ephrayim grazes on wind and pursues the easterly; every day he abounds lies and ravages: and they cut a covenant with the Ashshuri and bear oil to Misrayim.

¹
YAH VEH APPEALS TO YISRA EL
O Yisra El, return to Yah Veh your Elohim; for you falter by your perversity. ² Take with you words, and turn to Yah Veh: say to him, Bear all perversity and take the goodly: thus we shalam the bulllocks of our lips. ³ Neither Ashshur saves us; nor ride we on horses: nor say we any more to the work of our hands, Our elohim: for in you the orphan is mercied. ⁴ I heal their apostasy; I love them voluntarily: for my wrath turns from him.

⁹ Who is wise, and discerns these? Discerns, and knows them? For straight are the ways of Yah Veh and the just walk therein: and the rebels falter therein.

²⁷ And you know I am midst Yisra El, and I - Yah Veh your Elohim - and no one else: and my people shame not eternally. ²⁸
THE SPIRIT OF YAH VEH POURS ON ALL FLESH
And so be it, afterward, I pour my spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters prophesy; your elders dream dreams; your youths see visions:

¹⁸ And so be it, in that day, the mountains drip squeezed juice; and the hills go with milk; and all the reservoirs of Yah Hudah go with waters; and a fountain goes from the house of Yah Veh and wets the wadi of Shittim.

¹⁴ and I restore the captivity of my people of Yisra El: and they build the desolated cities and settle them; and they plant vineyards and drink the wine; and work gardens and eat their fruit:

² And many goyim come, and say, Come! Ascend to the mountain of Yah Veh and to the house of Elohim of Yaaqov; and he teaches us of his ways and we walk in his paths: for from Siyon comes a torah and the word of Yah Veh from Yeru Shalem:

¹³ Behold, is it not from Yah Veh Sabaoth that the nations labor for sufficient fire? And the people weary themselves for sufficient vanity?

¹⁸ What profit is the sculptile to the former who sculpts - or the molten, to a teacher of falsehoods, Confides the former of its form to work mute idols?

¹⁸ What profit is the sculptile to the former who sculpts - or the molten, to a teacher of falsehoods, Confides the former of its form to work mute idols? ¹⁹ Ho to him who says to the timber, Waken! - to the silent stone, Waken! It teaches! Behold, it is manipulated with gold and silver, and there is no spirit at all in its midst.

¹⁹ Ho to him who says to the timber, Waken! - to the silent stone, Waken! It teaches! Behold, it is manipulated with gold and silver, and there is no spirit at all in its midst. ²⁰ And Yah Veh is in his holy manse: silence at his face, all the earth.

⁵ And now, thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: Set your heart on your ways. ⁶ Only, my words and my statutes which I misvahed to my servants the prophets, overtook they not your fathers? And they return and say, As Yah Veh Sabaoth intrigues to work to us, according to our ways and our exploits, works he thus with us.

⁴ and says to him, Run! Word to yonder lad, saying, Yeru Shalem settles the suburbs because of the abundance of humanity and animals midst her:

²⁰ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: People and settlers of many cities still come: ²¹ and the settlers of one come to one, saying, We go speedily to stroke the face of Yah Veh and to seek Yah Veh Sabaoth: I go - even I. ²² Yes, many people and mighty goyim come to seek Yah Veh Sabaoth in Yeru Shalem and to stroke the face of Yah Veh. ²³ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: In those days, so be it, ten men from all tongues of the goyim, take hold - even take hold of the wing of a man - a Yah Hudiy, saying, We go with you: for we hear that Elohim is with you.

⁹ and I seed them among the people: and they remember me afar off; and they live with their sons, and return.

⁶ In that day I set the chiliarchs of Yah Hudah as a laver of fire among the timber; and as a flambeau of fire in an omer; and they consume all the people all around on the right and on the left: and Yeru Shalem settles again in her own place - in Yeru Shalem:

¹⁰
THE SPIRIT OF CHARISM
And I pour on the house of David, and on the settlers of Yeru Shalem, the spirit of charism and of supplications: and they look on me whom they pierced, and they chop for him as one chops for his only, and embitter over him as one embitters for his firstbirthed.

⁹ and I bring the third through the fire and refine them as the refining of silver, and proof them as the proofing of gold: they call on my name, and I answer them: I say, My people: and they say, Yah Veh, My Elohim.

¹⁰ All the land surrounds as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Yeru Shalem: and it lifts and settles in her place from the portal of Ben Yamin to the place of the first portal to the corner portal; and from the tower of Hanan El to the troughs of the sovereign. ¹¹ And they settle in her, and is no more devotement; and Yeru Shalem settles confidently.

¹⁴ And cursed is the deceiver who has a male in his drove; and vows and sacrifices a ruin to Adonay: for I am a great Sovereign, says Yah Veh Sabaoth; and my name is awesome among the goyim.

¹⁸ For Amen! I word to you, Until the heavens and earth pass, not one iota or one tittle never no way passes from the torah until all becomes.

³⁴
YAH SHUA DENOUNCES THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES
O progeny of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good? For the mouth speaks from the super abundance of the heart:

⁴³
IMPURE SPIRITS
Whenever the impure spirit comes from a human he passes through waterless places, seeks rest, and finds none.

¹⁴ And in them is fulfilled/shalamed the prophecy of Yesha Yah - which words, By hearing you hear, and no way comprehend; - and by observing you observe, and no way perceive: ¹⁵ for this people callous their heart and dull their ears from hearing and shut their eyes - lest ever they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and comprehend with their heart and turn around; and I heal them. ^{Isaiah 6:9,10}

³⁴ Then the sovereign says to them at his right, Come, you eulogized of my Father, inherit the sovereigndom prepared for you from the foundation of the cosmos:

⁵⁶ - but all this becomes to fulfill/shalam the scriptures of the prophets. - then all the disciples forsake him, and flee.

³⁷ and above his head put his accusation scribed, THIS IS YAH SHUA THE SOVEREIGN OF THE YAH HUDIYM.

⁷³ the oath he oathed to our father Abraham ⁷⁴ to fearlessly give us, being rescued from the hand of our enemies, to liturgize him,

¹⁰ And the angel says to them, Awe not: for behold, I evangelize to you of mega cheer which becomes to all people: ¹¹ for to you is birthed this day in the city of David a Saviour who is Messiah Adonay: ¹² and this is your sign; You find the infant swathed, and lying in a manger. ¹³ And suddenly with the angel there becomes a multitude of the heavenly host halaling Elohim, and wording, ¹⁴ Glory to Elohim in the highests and on earth shalom and well-approval toward humanity.

³² Awe not, little shepherddom; for your Father well-approves to give you the sovereigndom.

³⁴
THE CONCERN OF YAH SHUA OVER YERU SHALEM
O, Yeru Shalem, Yeru Shalem, who slaughters the prophets, and stones them who apostolize to you; how often I willed to gather your children together in manner as a hen her young under her wings: and you will not!

¹⁶ and he pants to fill his belly with the pods the swine eat: and no one gives him.

⁴⁴ And he says to them, These are the words I spoke to you while yet with you, that all must fulfill/shalam which are scribed in the torah of Mosheh and in the prophets and in the psalms concerning me.

¹
GENESIS OF THE EVANGELISMS: GENEALOGY OF THE WORD
In the beginning was ^* the Word and the Word was ^* with Elohim and Elohim was* the Word:

³
THE WORD IS THE CREATOR
All became through him; and apart from him naught became that became:

⁴⁴ How can you trust - you who take glory of one another, and seek not the glory that comes from Elohim only?

¹⁰ And Yah Shua says, Have the humans repose. - and there is much herbage in the place: the men repose - about five thousand in number.

³⁷
THE INVITATION OF YAH SHUA TO TAKE THE HOLY SPIRIT
In the final day - that mega day of the celebration Yah Shua stands and cries, wording, whenever anyone thirsts, come to me and drink: ³⁸ whoever trusts in me, exactly as the scripture says, from his belly flows streams of living water. ³⁹ And he says this concerning the Spirit whom those trusting in him are about to take: for the Holy Spirit is not yet because Yah Shua is not yet glorified.

⁴³ Why know you not my speech? Even because you cannot hear my word.

³⁰ I and the Father are one.

³⁹ So they cannot trust, because Yesha Yah says again, ⁴⁰ He blinds their eyes, and petrifies their heart; that they neither see with their eyes nor comprehend with their heart and return, and I heal them.

⁸ but you take dynamis, at the coming of the Holy Spirit upon you; and you become my witnesses - both in Yeru Shalem and in all Yah Hudah and in Shomeron and to the finality of the earth.

¹⁷ And it becomes, in the final days, words Elohim, I pour of my Spirit on all flesh: and your sons and your daughters prophesy, and your youths see visions, and your elders dream dreams:

²⁵
THE PROPHECY OF DAVID FULFILLED/SHALAMED
For David words to him, I foresaw Yah Veh through all time in sight of my face; for he is at my right that I not be shaken: ²⁶ because of this my heart rejoices and my tongue jumps for joy; yet also my flesh nests in hope: ²⁷ because you neither leave my soul in sheol/hades nor give your Merciful to see corruption: ²⁸ You make known to me the ways of life; you fill full/shalam me with rejoicing with your face. ^{Psalm 16:8-11}

³³ So, being exalted at the right of Elohim, and having taken the pre-evangelism of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he poured this, which you now see and hear.

³⁹ for the pre-evangelism is to you and to your children and to all who are afar - even as many as Yah Veh our Elohim calls. ^{Joel 2:32}

⁴¹
THE FIRST ECCLESIA
So indeed they who receive his word with pleasure are baptized; and about three thousand souls are added that day: ⁴² and they continue stedfastly in the doctrine and communion of the apostles and in breaking of bread and in prayers: ⁴³ and awe becomes upon every soul: and many omens and signs become through the apostles. ⁴⁴ And all who trust are in one, and have all in common; ⁴⁵ and sell their possessions and goods and divide them to all as everyone has need. ⁴⁶ And continuing daily in unanimity in the priestal precinct, and breaking bread from house to house, they partake their nourishment in jumping for joy and simplicity of heart, ⁴⁷ halaling Elohim and having charism with all the people: and Adonay adds those being saved to the ecclesia daily.

¹⁸ But those which Elohim pre-evangelized through the mouth of all his prophets - that the Messiah suffer, he thus fulfilled/shalamed. ¹⁹ So repent and restore, to wipe out your sins, when the seasons of refreshing come from the face of Yah Veh.

⁴ Howbeit many of them who hear the word trust - the number of the men being about five thousand.

¹⁴ and all the more they who trust are added to Adonay - multitudes both of men and women

⁴⁵ and they of the circumcision who trust are astounded - as many as come with Petros, because the gratuity of the Holy Spirit is also poured on the goyim:

¹⁵ and wording, Men, why do these? We also are humans of like passions with you, and evangelize to you to turn from these vanities to the living Elohim who made the heavens and earth and the sea and all therein: ¹⁶ who in departed generations, allowed all goyim to walk in their own ways:

²³ For as I passed through and considered your objects of reverence, I found a bamah epigraphed, TO THE UNKNOWN EL - so whom you unknowingly revere, I evangelize to you. ²⁴ Elohim, who made the cosmos and all therein, this one being Adonay of the heavens and earth, neither settles in handmade naves ²⁵ nor is cured by human hands - as though he needed aught; seeing he gives life and puffing and all to all; ²⁶ and also made of one blood all goyim of humanity to settle on all the face of the earth; and decreed the times and prearranged the seasons and the boundaries of their settlement;

²⁶ and also made of one blood all goyim of humanity to settle on all the face of the earth; and decreed the times and prearranged the seasons and the boundaries of their settlement; ²⁷ to seek Yah Veh - if then indeed, to touch him and to find him - though he is not far from each one of us: ^{Isaiah 55:6 28} for in him we live and stir and be; as some also of your own poets say, For we are also his genos. ²⁹ So, being of the genos of Elohim, we are indebted to not presume that the likeness of Elohim is likened to gold or silver or stone etched by human techniques and deliberations.

²⁹ So, being of the genos of Elohim, we are indebted to not presume that the likeness of Elohim is likened to gold or silver or stone etched by human techniques and deliberations. ³⁰ So indeed Elohim overlooked the times of this unknowingness; but now evangelizes all humanity every where to repent: ³¹ because he set a day, in which he is about to judge the world in justness by a man whom he decreed; having presented trust to all, in that he raised him from the dead.

²⁴ someone named Demetrius - a silversmith who makes silver naves for Artemis, presents no small work to the technicians; ²⁵ whom he gathers together with the workers of such occupation, and says, Men, you understand that by this work we prosper: ²⁶ moreover you observe and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but throughout nearly all Asia, this Paulos convinces and removes a vast multitude; wording that no elohim becomes through hands:

²⁶ moreover you observe and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but throughout nearly all Asia, this Paulos convinces and removes a vast multitude; wording that no elohim becomes through hands: ²⁷ so that not only this our part comes in peril to disrepute; but also that the priestal precinct of the mega goddess Artemis is reckoned as naught, and her majesty is about to be taken down - whom all Asia and the world venerates. ²⁸ And hearing these, they become full of fury, they cry out, wording, Mega! Artemis of the Ephesians! ²⁹ And the whole city fills/shalams with confusion: and catching Gaius and Aristarchus, men - Macedonians, co-travellers of Paulos, they run violently in unanimity into the theatre. ³⁰ And Paulos wills to enter to the public, and the disciples allow him not: ³¹ and some of the Asiarchs - his friends, send to him, entreating him to not give himself into the theatre. ³² So others indeed cry out one, and some another; for the ecclesia is confused: and most of them know not for what cause they come together. ³³ And having previously instigated Alexander from the multitude, the Yah Hudiym put him forward: and Alexander signals with the hand, and wills to plead to the public: ³⁴ but knowing he is Yah Hudiy, there becomes as one cry from all for about two hours, Mega - Artemis of the Ephesians!

²⁰ For his invisibles from the creation of the cosmos are clearly seen being comprehended by his doings - both his eternal dynamis and divinity; so that they are inexcusable: ²¹ because when they knew Elohim they neither glorified him as Elohim, nor eucharistized; but became vain in their reasonings and darkened their uncomprehending heart:

²¹ because when they knew Elohim they neither glorified him as Elohim, nor eucharistized; but became vain in their reasonings and darkened their uncomprehending heart: ²² professing themselves to be wise they became fools;

²² professing themselves to be wise they became fools;

²² professing themselves to be wise they became fools; ²³ and changed the glory of the uncorruptible Elohim into an icon likened to corruptible humanity and to flyers and quadrupeds and creepers.

²³ and changed the glory of the uncorruptible Elohim into an icon likened to corruptible humanity and to flyers and quadrupeds and creepers.

²⁵ who exchanged the truth of Elohim into a lie and venerated and liturgized the creature beyond the Creator - who is eulogized to the eons. Amen.

²⁸ And exactly as they approve to not regard Elohim in knowledge, Elohim surrenders them to a disapproved mind, to do what is not becoming;

³⁰ And whom he predetermined, he also called: and whom he called, he also justified: and whom he justified, he also glorified.

⁵ Thus also at this present season, there is a remnant according to the selection by charism: ⁶ and if by charism, it is not still by works: otherwise charism is not still by charism: and if by works, it is not still by charism: otherwise work is not still by work.

⁸ Exactly as scribed, Elohim gives them the spirit of insensitivity, eyes that they see not and ears that they hear not - to this day today. ^{Isaiah 29:10 9} And David words, Let their table become into a snare and into a prey and into a scandal and into a recompence to them: ¹⁰ that their eyes darken, that they see not and bow their back continually. ^{Psalm 69:22}

²⁸ Indeed, as concerning the evangelism, enemies for your sakes: but as touching the selection, beloved for the sakes of the fathers. ²⁹ For the charismata and calling of Elohim are irrevocable.

²⁰ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this eon? Elohim indeed, follies he not the wisdom of this cosmos? ²¹ For since in the wisdom of Elohim the cosmos knew not Elohim through wisdom, Elohim well-approved that through the foolishness of preaching to save them who trust. ²² Since the Yah Hudiym ask a sign and the Hellenes seek after wisdom: ²³ we also - we preach Messiah staked - to the Yah Hudiym, indeed a scandal and to the Hellenes foolishness; ²⁴ and to the called - both Yah Hudiym and Hellenes, Messiah - the dynamis of Elohim and the wisdom of Elohim. ²⁵ Because the foolishness of Elohim is wiser than humanity; and the frailty of Elohim mightier than humanity. ²⁶ For you see your calling brothers, how that not many wise after the flesh, not many able, not many well-birthed: ²⁷ But Elohim selects the foolish of the cosmos to shame the wise; and Elohim selects the frailties of the cosmos to shame the mighty;

¹⁹ For the wisdom of this cosmos is foolishness with Elohim. For it is scribed, He grasps the wise in their own cunning. ²⁰ And again, Yah Veh knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain. ^{Job 5:13, Psalm 94:11, 20}

²⁰ For you are bought with a price: so glorify Elohim in your body and in your spirit, which are of Elohim.

⁴ So, concerning the eating of idol sacrifices, we know that an idol is naught in the cosmos and that there is no other Elohim except one.

³ And also, if our evangelism is veiled, it is veiled among the lost: ⁴ in whom the elohim of this eon blinds the comprehensions of the trustless, lest the light of the evangelism of the glory of the Messiah - being the icon of Elohim radiate to them.

⁴ in whom the elohim of this eon blinds the comprehensions of the trustless, lest the light of the evangelism of the glory of the Messiah - being the icon of Elohim radiate to them.

⁵ And not exactly as we hoped, but first they gave their own selves to Adonay and to us through the will of Elohim.

¹⁵ And when Elohim well-approved - who set me apart from the womb of my mother and through his charism, called me

¹⁶ And as many as march by this canon, shalom and mercy on them and on the Yisra El of Elohim.

⁴ exactly as he selected us in him ere the foundation of the cosmos, to be holy and unblemished in his sight in love:

⁶ to the halal of the glory of his charism, wherein he charised us in the beloved: ⁷ in whom we have redemption through his blood - the forgiveness of backslidings according to the riches of his charism;

⁹ and to enlighten so that all see the communion of the mystery - which from the eons was secreted in Elohim who created all through Yah Shua Messiah:

²¹ to him be glory in the ecclesia by Messiah Yah Shua to all generations - eon of the eons. Amen.

¹⁸ darkened in mind - alienated from the life of Elohim through the unknowingness in them through the petrifaction of their heart:

⁸ For formerly you were darkness and now light in Adonay: walk as children of light:

¹⁶
YAH SHUA, CREATOR
For in him all was created - those in the heavens and those on the earth; visible and invisible; whether thrones whether lordships whether hierarchies whether authorities - all were created through him and to him: ¹⁷ and he preceded all, and in him all consists:

⁴ beloved brothers, knowing your selection by Elohim.

¹⁰ whenever he comes to be glorified in his holy and to be marvelled in all who trust - because you trust our witness among you in that day: ¹¹ to which also we always pray for you, that our Elohim deem you worthy of this calling and fulfill/shalam all the well-approval of goodness and the work of trust in dynamis: ¹² that the name of our Adonay Yah Shua Messiah be glorified in you - and you in him, according to the charism of our Elohim and Adonay Yah Shua Messiah.

⁹ - whose parousia is after the energizing of Satan in all dynamis and signs and lying omens,

⁹ - whose parousia is after the energizing of Satan in all dynamis and signs and lying omens, ¹⁰ and in all delusion of injustice in them who destruct: for they receive not the love of the truth to save them.

¹⁰ and in all delusion of injustice in them who destruct: for they receive not the love of the truth to save them. ¹¹ And for this cause Elohim sends them an energized seduction so that they trust a lie:

¹¹ And for this cause Elohim sends them an energized seduction so that they trust a lie: ¹² to judge all who trust not the truth, who well-approve injustice.

¹⁶
THE MEGA PROFESSION OF PAULOS
And professedly, mega is the mystery of reverence - Elohim manifested in flesh, justified in Spirit, seen of angels, preached in the goyim, trusted in the cosmos, taken into glory.

² pseudologists in hypocrisy their conscience cauterized,

¹³ if we distrust, he abides trustworthy; he cannot deny himself.

¹³ and evil humanity and enchanters advance worse - seducing and seduced.

¹² disciplining us to deny irreverence and cosmic pantings, to live soundmindedly, justly and reverently in this present eon; ¹³ awaiting that blessed hope and the epiphany of the glory of the mega Elohim and our Saviour Yah Shua Messiah; ¹⁴ who gave himself for us, to redeem us from all torah violations and purify a peculiar people to himself - zealots in good works.

⁵ - not by works in justness which we did - but according to his mercy he saved us through the bathing of regenesis and renewing of the Holy Spirit; ⁶ which he richly poured on us through Yah Shua Messiah our Saviour;

² and in these final days speaks to us in Son: whom he placed heir of all; through whom also he made the eons:

¹⁰ And in the beginning, O Adonay, you founded the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands: ¹¹ They destruct, and you abide continually; and they all antiquate as a garment; ¹² and as a mantle you coil them and they change: and you are the same and your years fail not. ^{Psalm 102:25-27}

⁷ So, exactly as the Holy Spirit words, Today whenever you hear his voice, ⁸ harden not your hearts as in the provocation, in the day of testing in the wilderness:

¹⁶ So come boldly to the throne of charism, to take mercy and find charism to opportunely help.

¹
FROM THE CLOUD OF WITNESSES TO YAH SHUA
So seeing we also are surrounded with so vast a cloud of witnesses, put away every weight and the well-standing sin: and through endurance, run the contest set in front of us:

¹⁸ knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptibles as silver or gold of your vain patriarchal traditions; ¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Messiah, as of a lamb, unblemished and unstained:

⁹ But you are a select genos, a sovereign priesthood, a holy goyim, a peculiar acquisition to himself; to evangelize the exultation of him who called you from darkness into his marvellous light:

¹¹ If anyone speaks as the oracles of Elohim; if anyone ministers as of the might that Elohim supplies: glorify Elohim in all through Yah Shua Messiah, to whom be glory and dominion to the eons of the eons. Amen.

¹⁹
SCRIPTURE PROPHECY
We also have a steadfast word of prophecy; which you do well to heed, as to a light manifesting in an obscure place, until the day thoroughly dawn and the day phospherescence arise in your hearts: ²⁰ knowing this first, that not any prophecy of the scripture becomes by personal explanation: ²¹ for no prophecy was ever brought by the will of humanity: but holy humans of Elohim spoke - borne by the Holy Spirit.

¹⁴ eyes full of adultery, and restless from sin; entrapping unstable souls; a heart exercised with avarice; children of curse

² for the life manifested and we saw and witness and evangelize to you the eternal life; being with the Father and manifest to us

⁸ I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the completion/shalom, words Yah Veh, who is and who was and who is coming - Sabaoth.

¹¹ wording, I AM the Alpha and the Omega - the first and the final: and, What you see, scribe in a scroll and send it to the seven ecclesiae in Asia: to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamos and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.

¹⁷ And when I see him, I fall toward his feet as dead. And he places his right hand on me, wording to me, Awe not - I AM the first and the final: ¹⁸ - the living who became dead; and behold, I am alive to the eons; Amen: and have the keys of Hades/Sheol and of death.

⁸
THE SECOND SCRIBING
And to the angel of the ecclesia of Smyrnians, scribe: Thus words the first and the final who became dead and lives:

⁸ And when he takes the scroll, the four live beings and twenty-four elders fall in sight of the Lamb, each of them having cithers and golden phials full of incense which are the prayers of the holy; ⁹ and they sing a new ode, wording, You are worthy to take the scroll and to open the seals thereof: because you were slaughtered and marketed us to Elohim by your blood from every scion and tongue and people and goyim;

⁹ and they sing a new ode, wording, You are worthy to take the scroll and to open the seals thereof: because you were slaughtered and marketed us to Elohim by your blood from every scion and tongue and people and goyim; ¹⁰ and made us sovereigns and priests to our Elohim to reign on the earth. ¹¹ And I perceive and I hear the voice of many angels surrounding the throne and the live beings and the elders: and their number is myriads times myriads and thousands of thousands; ¹² wording with a mega voice, Worthy is the Lamb who was slaughtered to take dynamis and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and eulogy. ¹³ And I hear every creature in the heavens and in the earth and under the earth and on the sea and all therein, wording, Eulogy and honor and glory and power, to him sitting upon the throne and to the Lamb to the eons of the eons. ¹⁴ And the four live beings word, Amen! And the twenty-four elders fall and worship him who lives to the eons of the eons.

²⁰ And the rest of humanity - not slaughtered in these plagues repent not of the works of their hands - to not worship demons and idols of gold and silver and copper and of stone and of wood: which can neither see nor hear nor walk:

⁹ And the mega dragon is cast out, that ancient serpent called Diabolos and Satan, who seduces the whole world: he is cast to the earth and his angels are cast out with him.

¹² For this rejoice, you the heavens and you who tabernacle therein. Woe to the settlers of the earth and of the sea! - because Diabolos descends to you having mega fury because he knows he has but a little season. ^{John 12:31, 32, Luke 10:18}

¹⁴ and seduces those settled on the earth through those signs he is given to do in sight of the beast; wording to them settled on the earth who had the plague by a sword and lived to make an icon to the beast.

¹²
THE SIXTH PLAGUE
And the sixth angel pours his phial on the mega stream Euphrates; and the water thereof dries to prepare the way of the sovereigns of the rising of the sun.

²⁰ Rejoice over her, O the heavens and you holy apostles and prophets; because Elohim judges your judgment of her.

²³ and the light of a candle are never ever no way still manifested in you; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride are never ever no way still heard in you: because your merchants are the magistrates of the earth; because in your pharmacies all goyim are seduced:

¹
THE FOUR HALALU YAHS FROM THE HEAVENS
And after these I hear a mega voice of many multitudes in the heavens, wording, Halalu Yah! Salvation and glory and honor and dynamis, to Yah Veh our Elohim: ² because true and just are his judgments: because he judged the mega whore who corrupted the earth in her whoredom and avenged the blood of his servants from her hand. ³ And secondly they say, Halalu Yah! - and her smoke ascends to the eons of the eons. ⁴ And the twenty-four elders and the four live beings fall and worship Elohim sitting on the throne, wording, Amen! Halalu Yah! ⁵ And a voice comes from the throne, wording, Halal our Elohim, all you his servants and you who awe him - both minute and mega. ⁶ And I hear as the voice of a vast multitude and as the voice of many waters and as the voice of mighty thunderings, wording, Halalu Yah! because Yah Veh El Sabaoth reigns.

¹⁹ And I see the beast and the sovereigns of the earth and their warriors gather together to make war with him sitting on the horse and with his warriors. ²⁰
BEAST AND PSEUDOPROPHET CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE
And the beast is seized; and with him the pseudoprophet who did signs in his sight; in which he seduced them who took the tattoo of the beast and them who worship his icon. These two are cast alive into a lake of fire burning in sulphur. ²¹
THE SLAUGHTER OF THE REST
And the rest are slaughtered at the sabre of him sitting upon the horse, proceeding from his mouth: and all the fowls fill from their flesh.

³ and casts him into the abyss and shuts him and seals him, so that he never no way still seduces the goyim till the thousand years are fulfilled/shalamed: and after these he must be loosed a little time.

⁶ And he says to me, It is become! I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the completion/shalom. To him who thirsts I give of the fountain of the water of life gratuitously.

¹³ I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the completion/shalom, the first and the final.

¹⁷
THE FINAL INVITATION
And the Spirit and the bride word, Come; And whoever hears, say, Come. And whoever thirsts, come. And whoever wills, take the water of life gratuitously.
