Verse 1א׳Standard3,874
שִׁמְעוּ דְבַר־יְהוָה בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי רִיב לַֽיהוָה עִם־יוֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ כִּי אֵין־אֱמֶת וְֽאֵין־חֶסֶד וְאֵֽין־דַּעַת אֱלֹהִים בָּאָֽרֶץ
Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel! For the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, Because there is no truth, nor mercy, Nor knowledge of God in the land.
Verse 2ב׳Standard1,573
אָלֹה וְכַחֵשׁ וְרָצֹחַ וְגָנֹב וְנָאֹף פָּרָצוּ וְדָמִים בְּדָמִים נָגָֽעוּ
Swearing and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery! They break all bounds, and blood toucheth blood.
Verse 3ג׳Standard2,952
עַל־כֵּן תֶּאֱבַל הָאָרֶץ וְאֻמְלַל כָּל־יוֹשֵׁב בָּהּ בְּחַיַּת הַשָּׂדֶה וּבְעוֹף הַשָּׁמָיִם וְגַם־דְּגֵי הַיָּם יֵאָסֵֽפוּ
Therefore doth the land mourn, And every one that dwelleth therein doth languish, With the beasts of the field, and the fowls of heaven; Yea, the fishes of the sea also are taken away.
Verse 4ד׳Standard1,460
אַךְ אִישׁ אַל־יָרֵב וְאַל־יוֹכַח אִישׁ וְעַמְּךָ כִּמְרִיבֵי כֹהֵֽן
Yet let no man strive, neither let any man reprove; For thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
Verse 5ה׳Standard2,015
וְכָשַׁלְתָּ הַיּוֹם וְכָשַׁל גַּם־נָבִיא עִמְּךָ לָיְלָה וְדָמִיתִי אִמֶּֽךָ
Therefore shalt thou stumble in the day, And the prophet also shall stumble with thee in the night; And I will destroy thy mother.
Verse 6ו׳Standard4,802
נִדְמוּ עַמִּי מִבְּלִי הַדָּעַת כִּֽי־אַתָּה הַדַּעַת מָאַסְתָּ וְאֶמְאָֽסְאךָ מִכַּהֵן לִי וַתִּשְׁכַּח תּוֹרַת אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֶשְׁכַּח בָּנֶיךָ גַּם־אָֽנִי
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; Because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to Me; Seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I also will forget thy children.
Verse 7ז׳Standard907
כְּרֻבָּם כֵּן חָֽטְאוּ־לִי כְּבוֹדָם בְּקָלוֹן אָמִֽיר
The more they were increased, the more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame.
Verse 8ח׳Standard1,561
חַטַּאת עַמִּי יֹאכֵלוּ וְאֶל־עֲוֺנָם יִשְׂאוּ נַפְשֽׁוֹ
They feed on the sin of My people, And set their heart on their iniquity.
Verse 9ט׳Standard1,748
וְהָיָה כָעָם כַּכֹּהֵן וּפָקַדְתִּי עָלָיו דְּרָכָיו וּמַעֲלָלָיו אָשִׁיב לֽוֹ
And it is like people, like priest; And I will punish him for his ways, And will recompense him his doings.
Verse 10י׳Standard2,091
וְאָֽכְלוּ וְלֹא יִשְׂבָּעוּ הִזְנוּ וְלֹא יִפְרֹצוּ כִּֽי־אֶת־יְהוָה עָזְבוּ לִשְׁמֹֽר
And they shall eat, and not have enough, They shall commit harlotry, and shall not increase; Because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
