לָכֵן יַעַן בּוֹשַׁסְכֶם עַל־דָּל וּמַשְׂאַת־בַּר תִּקְחוּ מִמֶּנּוּ בָּתֵּי גָזִית בְּנִיתֶם וְלֹא־תֵשְׁבוּ בָם כַּרְמֵי־חֶמֶד נְטַעְתֶּם וְלֹא תִשְׁתּוּ אֶת־יֵינָֽם
Therefore, because ye trample upon the poor, And take from him exactions of wheat; Ye have built houses of hewn stone, But ye shall not dwell in them, Ye have planted pleasant vineyards, But ye shall not drink wine thereof.
כִּי יָדַעְתִּי רַבִּים פִּשְׁעֵיכֶם וַעֲצֻמִים חַטֹּֽאתֵיכֶם צֹרְרֵי צַדִּיק לֹקְחֵי כֹפֶר וְאֶבְיוֹנִים בַּשַּׁעַר הִטּֽוּ
For I know how manifold are your transgressions, And how mighty are your sins; Ye that afflict the just, that take a ransom, And that turn aside the needy in the gate.
לָכֵן הַמַּשְׂכִּיל בָּעֵת הַהִיא יִדֹּם כִּי עֵת רָעָה הִֽיא
Therefore the prudent doth keep silence in such a time; For it is an evil time.
דִּרְשׁוּ־טוֹב וְאַל־רָע לְמַעַן תִּֽחְיוּ וִיהִי־כֵן יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽי־צְבָאוֹת אִתְּכֶם כַּאֲשֶׁר אֲמַרְתֶּֽם
Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live; And so the LORD, the God of hosts, will be with you, as ye say.
שִׂנְאוּ־רָע וְאֶהֱבוּ טוֹב וְהַצִּיגוּ בַשַּׁעַר מִשְׁפָּט אוּלַי יֶֽחֱנַן יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽי־צְבָאוֹת שְׁאֵרִית יוֹסֵֽף
Hate the evil, and love the good, And establish justice in the gate; It may be that the LORD, the God of hosts, Will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
