שַׁמָּה וְשַׁעֲרוּרָה נִהְיְתָה בָּאָֽרֶץ
An appalling and horrible thing Is come to pass in the land:
הַנְּבִיאִים נִבְּאוּ־בַשֶּׁקֶר וְהַכֹּהֲנִים יִרְדּוּ עַל־יְדֵיהֶם וְעַמִּי אָהֲבוּ כֵן וּמַֽה־תַּעֲשׂוּ לְאַחֲרִיתָֽהּ
The prophets prophesy in the service of falsehood, And the priests bear rule at their beck; And My people love to have it so; What then will ye do in the end thereof?
הָעִזוּ בְּנֵי בִניָמִן מִקֶּרֶב יְרוּשָׁלִַם וּבִתְקוֹעַ תִּקְעוּ שׁוֹפָר וְעַל־בֵּית הַכֶּרֶם שְׂאוּ מַשְׂאֵת כִּי רָעָה נִשְׁקְפָה מִצָּפוֹן וְשֶׁבֶר גָּדֽוֹל
Put yourselves under covert, ye children of Benjamin, Away from the midst of Jerusalem, And blow the horn in Tekoa, And set up a signal on Beth-cherem; For evil looketh forth from the north, And a great destruction.
הַנָּוָה וְהַמְּעֻנָּגָה דָּמִיתִי בַּת־צִיּֽוֹן
The comely and delicate one, The daughter of Zion, will I cut off.
אֵלֶיהָ יָבֹאוּ רֹעִים וְעֶדְרֵיהֶם תָּקְעוּ עָלֶיהָ אֹהָלִים סָבִיב רָעוּ אִישׁ אֶת־יָדֽוֹ
Shepherds with their flocks come unto her; They pitch their tents against her round about; They feed bare every one what is nigh at hand.
