 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLEIsaiah:16Biblia Hebraica (Stuttgartensia) | BHS (pdf - 3.5mb)  

1 They have sent lambs
to the ruler of the land,
from Sela, by way of the desert,
to the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Moab's hopeless situation. Is.16.1-14שִׁלְחוּ־כַר מֹשֵׁל־אֶרֶץ מִסֶּלַע מִדְבָּרָה אֶל־הַר בַּת־צִיֹּון׃
2 Like fluttering birds,
like scattered nestlings,
so are the daughters of Moab
at the fords of the Arnon.
 וְהָיָה כְעֹוף־נֹודֵד קֵן מְשֻׁלָּח תִּהְיֶינָה בְּנֹות מֹואָב מַעְבָּרֹת לְאַרְנֹון׃
3 "Give counsel, grant justice;
make your shade like night
at the height of noon;
hide the outcasts,
betray not the fugitive;
 [כ= הָבִיאוּ] [ק= הָבִיאִי] עֵצָה עֲשׂוּ פְלִילָה שִׁיתִי כַלַּיִל צִלֵּךְ בְּתֹוךְ צָהֳרָיִם סַתְּרִי נִדָּחִים נֹדֵד אַל־תְּגַלִּי׃
4 let the outcasts of Moab
sojourn among you;
be a refuge to them
from the destroyer.
When the oppressor is no more,
and destruction has ceased,
and he who tramples under foot
has vanished from the land,
 יָגוּרוּ בָךְ נִדָּחַי מֹואָב הֱוִי־סֵתֶר לָמֹו מִפְּנֵי שֹׁודֵד כִּי־אָפֵס הַמֵּץ כָּלָה שֹׁד תַּמּוּ רֹמֵס מִן־הָאָרֶץ׃
5 then a throne will be established in steadfast love
and on it will sit in faithfulness
in the tent of David
one who judges and seeks justice
and is swift to do righteousness."
 וְהוּכַן בַּחֶסֶד כִּסֵּא וְיָשַׁב עָלָיו בֶּאֱמֶת בְּאֹהֶל דָּוִד שֹׁפֵט וְדֹרֵשׁ מִשְׁפָּט וּמְהִר צֶדֶק׃
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab,
how proud he was;
of his arrogance, his pride, and his insolence -
his boasts are false.
 שָׁמַעְנוּ גְאֹון־מֹואָב גֵּא מְאֹד גַּאֲוָתֹו וּגְאֹונֹו וְעֶבְרָתֹו לֹא־כֵן בַּדָּיו׃ ס
7 Therefore let Moab wail,
let every one wail for Moab.
Mourn, utterly stricken,
for the raisin-cakes of Kir-hareseth.
 לָכֵן יְיֵלִיל מֹואָב לְמֹואָב כֻּלֹּה יְיֵלִיל לַאֲשִׁישֵׁי קִיר־חֲרֶשֶׂת תֶּהְגּוּ אַךְ־נְכָאִים׃
8 For the fields of Heshbon languish,
and the vine of Sibmah;
the lords of the nations
have struck down its branches,
which reach to Jazer
and strayed to the desert;
its shoots spread abroard
and passed over the sea.
 כִּי שַׁדְמֹות חֶשְׁבֹּון אֻמְלָל גֶּפֶן שִׂבְמָה בַּעֲלֵי גֹויִם הָלְמוּ שְׂרוּקֶּיהָ עַד־יַעְזֵר נָגָעוּ תָּעוּ מִדְבָּר שְׁלֻחֹותֶיהָ נִטְּשׁוּ עָבְרוּ יָם׃
9 Therefore I weep with the weeping of Jazer
for the vine of Sibmah;
I drench you with my tears,
O Heshbon and Elealeh;
for upon your fruit and your harvest
the battle shout has fallen.
 עַל־כֵּן אֶבְכֶּה בִּבְכִי יַעְזֵר גֶּפֶן שִׂבְמָה אֲרַיָּוֶךְ דִּמְעָתִי חֶשְׁבֹּון וְאֶלְעָלֵה כִּי עַל־קֵיצֵךְ וְעַל־קְצִירֵךְ הֵידָד נָפָל׃
10 And joy and gladness are taken away
from the fruitful field;
and in the vineyards no songs are sung,
no shouts are raised;
no treader treads out wine in the presses;
the vintage shout is hushed.
 וְנֶאֱסַף שִׂמְחָה וָגִיל מִן־הַכַּרְמֶל וּבַכְּרָמִים לֹא־יְרֻןָּן לֹא יְרֹעָע יַיִן בַּיְקָבִים לֹא־יִדְרֹךְ הַדֹּרֵךְ הֵידָד הִשְׁבַּתִּי׃
11 Therefore my soul moans like a lyre for Moab,
and my heart for Kir-heres.
 עַל־כֵּן מֵעַי לְמֹואָב כַּכִּנֹּור יֶהֱמוּ וְקִרְבִּי לְקִיר חָרֶשׂ׃
12 And when Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself upon the high place, when he comes to his sanctuary to pray, he will not prevail.  וְהָיָה כִי־נִרְאָה כִּי־נִלְאָה מֹואָב עַל־הַבָּמָה וּבָא אֶל־מִקְדָּשֹׁו לְהִתְפַּלֵּל וְלֹא יוּכָל׃
13 This is the word which Yahweh spoke concerning Moab in the past.  זֶה הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה אֶל־מֹואָב מֵאָז׃
14 But now Yahweh says, "In three years, like the years of a hireling, the glory of Moab will be brought into contempt, in spite of all his great multitude, and those who survive will be very few and feeble."  וְעַתָּה דִּבֶּר יְהוָה לֵאמֹר בְּשָׁלֹשׁ שָׁנִים כִּשְׁנֵי שָׂכִיר וְנִקְלָה כְּבֹוד מֹואָב בְּכֹל הֶהָמֹון הָרָב וּשְׁאָר מְעַט מִזְעָר לֹוא כַבִּיר׃ ס

Notes: This webpage enables you to select-a-version from the Bible versions held on the katapi bible database.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have printed 'YHWH' in black. The later vowel sounds I have shown in the colour gray;
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
