Biblija (Šventasis Raštas)

1

How is the gold [2091] become dim! [6004] [how] is the most [2896] fine gold [3800] changed! [8132] the stones [0068] of the sanctuary [6944] are poured out [8210] in the top [7218] of every street. [2351]

2

The precious [3368] sons [1121] of Zion, [6726] comparable [5537] to fine gold, [6337] how are they esteemed [2803] as earthen [2789] pitchers, [5035] the work [4639] of the hands [3027] of the potter! [3335]

3

Even the sea monsters [8577] draw out [2502] the breast, [7699] they give suck [3243] to their young ones: [1484] the daughter [1323] of my people [5971] [is become] cruel, [0393] like the ostriches [3283] in the wilderness. [4057]

4

The tongue [3956] of the sucking child [3243] cleaveth [1692] to the roof of his mouth [2441] for thirst: [6772] the young children [5768] ask [7592] bread, [3899] [and] no man breaketh [6566] [it] unto them.

5

They that did feed [0398] delicately [4574] are desolate [8074] in the streets: [2351] they that were brought up [0539] in scarlet [8438] embrace [2263] dunghills. [0830]

6

For the punishment of the iniquity [5771] of the daughter [1323] of my people [5971] is greater [1431] than the punishment [2403] of the sin of Sodom, [5467] that was overthrown [2015] as in a moment, [7281] and no hands [3027] stayed [2342] on her.

7

Her Nazarites [5139] were purer [2141] than snow, [7950] they were whiter [6705] than milk, [2461] they were more ruddy [0119] in body [6106] than rubies, [6443] their polishing [1508] [was] of sapphire: [5601]

8

Their visage [8389] is blacker [2821] than a coal; [7815] they are not known [5234] in the streets: [2351] their skin [5785] cleaveth [6821] to their bones; [6106] it is withered, [3001] it is become like a stick. [6086]

9

[They that be] slain [2491] with the sword [2719] are better [2896] than [they that be] slain [2491] with hunger: [7458] for these [1992] pine away, [2100] stricken through [1856] for [want of] the fruits [8570] of the field. [7704]

10

The hands [3027] of the pitiful [7362] women [0802] have sodden [1310] their own children: [3206] they were their meat [1262] in the destruction [7667] of the daughter [1323] of my people. [5971]

11

The LORD [3068] hath accomplished [3615] his fury; [2534] he hath poured out [8210] his fierce [2740] anger, [0639] and hath kindled [3341] a fire [0784] in Zion, [6726] and it hath devoured [0398] the foundations [3247] thereof.

12

The kings [4428] of the earth, [0776] and all the inhabitants [3427] of the world, [8398] would not have believed [0539] that the adversary [6862] and the enemy [0341] should have entered [0935] into the gates [8179] of Jerusalem. [3389]

13

For the sins [2403] of her prophets, [5030] [and] the iniquities [5771] of her priests, [3548] that have shed [8210] the blood [1818] of the just [6662] in the midst [7130] of her,

14

They have wandered [5128] [as] blind [5787] [men] in the streets, [2351] they have polluted [1351] themselves with blood, [1818] so that men could [3201] not [3808] touch [5060] their garments. [3830]

15

They cried [7121] unto them, Depart [5493] ye; [it is] unclean; [2931] depart, [5493] depart, [5493] touch [5060] not: when they fled away [5132] and wandered, [5128] they said [0559] among the heathen, [1471] They shall no more [3254] sojourn [1481] [there].

16

The anger [6440] of the LORD [3068] hath divided [2505] them; he will no more [3254] regard [5027] them: they respected [5375] not the persons [6440] of the priests, [3548] they favoured [2603] not the elders. [2205]

17

As for us, our eyes [5869] as yet failed [3615] for our vain [1892] help: [5833] in our watching [6836] we have watched [6822] for a nation [1471] [that] could not save [3467] [us].

18

They hunt [6679] our steps, [6806] that we cannot go [3212] in our streets: [7339] our end [7093] is near, [7126] our days [3117] are fulfilled; [4390] for our end [7093] is come. [0935]

19

Our persecutors [7291] are swifter [7031] than the eagles [5404] of the heaven: [8064] they pursued [1814] us upon the mountains, [2022] they laid wait [0693] for us in the wilderness. [4057]

20

The breath [7307] of our nostrils, [0639] the anointed [4899] of the LORD, [3068] was taken [3920] in their pits, [7825] of whom we said, [0559] Under his shadow [6738] we shall live [2421] among the heathen. [1471]

21

Rejoice [7797] and be glad, [8055] O daughter [1323] of Edom, [0123] that dwellest [3427] in the land [0776] of Uz; [5780] the cup [3563] also shall pass [5674] through unto thee: thou shalt be drunken, [7937] and shalt make thyself naked. [6168]

22

The punishment of thine iniquity [5771] is accomplished, [8552] O daughter [1323] of Zion; [6726] he will no more [3254] carry thee away into captivity: [1540] he will visit [6485] thine iniquity, [5771] O daughter [1323] of Edom; [0123] he will discover [1540] thy sins. [2403]
