1Hear these things, those of the house of Yaqob who are called by the name of Israel, and they came forth from the family of Yehuda, who swear in the name of LORD JEHOVAH, and they commemorate the God of Israel, not in truth and not in righteousness 2Because they were called from the city of holiness, and they leaned on The God of Israel. LORD JEHOVAH Almighty is his name 3The first things that are from the beginning I have shown, and they went out of my mouth, also I made heard to you, and I act suddenly and they happen 4I know that you are hard and your neck sinew is of iron, and your forehead is brass 5I have shown you from former time, and before they would come I made you hear, lest you would say, “My idols have done it, and my carvings and my molten things have saved me!” 6You have heard and you saw all these things and will you not show them? I made you hear that from now new things are kept, and you had not known 7And from now they are created and not from former time; from before the day you had not heard them, lest you would say, "I know them" 8You have not heard neither do you know them, and from former time your ears were not opened. I know that you surely lie and you were called evil from the womb 9Because of my name I shall soften my anger, and my glory I shall keep for you and I shall not destroy you 10Behold, I have purified you, and not with silver, and I have proven you in the furnace of poverty 11For my sake I shall make what is undefiled, and I shall not give my honor to another 12Hear me Yaqob, and Israel whom I called. I AM The First and I AM The Last 13And my hand has constructed the foundations of The Earth, and my right hand has stretched out the Heavens. I call to them and they stand up as one 14Be assembled all of you, and whoever is among you, hear who shows these things. LORD JEHOVAH loves him who will do his pleasure in Babel and in the land and with the seed of The Chaldeans 15I have spoken, I also cried and I brought him and I made his way prosperous 16Come to me and hear this, because from the origin I have not spoken in a secret place, and from the time that it was, there I am, and now LORD JEHOVAH God has sent me and his Spirit. 17Thus says LORD JEHOVAH your Savior, The Holy One of Israel: “I LORD JEHOVAH your God teach you that you shall do no evil, and I show you the way that you will go in it 18But, oh, that you had listened to my commands, and your peace had been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea! 19And your seed was as the sand, and the offspring of your womb as its pebbles, and it would not end, and its name would not be destroyed from before me 20Go out from Babel! Flee from the Chaldeans! Show this with the voice of singing and make it heard, and send it out unto the ends of The Earth, and say: ‘LORD JEHOVAH has saved Yaqob his Servant! 21In the desert he walked them, and water from the flint he made flow to them! He bored through the stone and the waters flowed!’ 22There is no peace to the wicked, says LORD JEHOVAH” The Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Translated by Glenn David Bauscher Glenn David Bauscher Lulu Publishing Copyright © 2018 Lulu Publishing 3rd edition Copyright © 2019 |
