59 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

59 1Behold, Yahweh's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save,
or his ear dull, that it cannot hear;
The prophet condemns the people's sins. Is.59.1-8הֵן לֹא־קָצְרָה יַד־יְהוָה מֵהֹושִׁיעַ וְלֹא־כָבְדָה אָזְנֹו מִשְּׁמֹועַ׃
2but your iniquities have made a separation
between you and your God,
and your sins have hid his face from you
so that he does not hear.
 כִּי אִם־עֲוֹנֹתֵיכֶם הָיוּ מַבְדִּלִים בֵּינֵכֶם לְבֵין אֱלֹהֵיכֶם וְחַטֹּאותֵיכֶם הִסְתִּירוּ פָנִים םִכֶּם מִשְּׁמֹועַ׃
3For your hands are defiled with blood
and your fingers with iniquity;
your lips have spoken lies,
your tongue mutters wickedness.
 כִּי כַפֵּיכֶם נְגֹאֲלוּ בַדָּם וְאֶצְבְּעֹותֵיכֶם בֶּעָוֹן שִׂפְתֹותֵיכֶם דִּבְּרוּ־שֶׁקֶר לְשֹׁונְכֶם עַוְלָה תֶהְגֶּה׃
4No one enters suit justly,
no one goes to law honestly;
they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,
they conceive mischief and bring forth iniquity.
 אֵין־קֹרֵא בְצֶדֶק וְאֵין נִשְׁפָּט בֶּאֱמוּנָה בָּטֹוחַ עַל־תֹּהוּ וְדַבֶּר־שָׁוְא הָרֹו עָמָל וְהֹולֵיד אָוֶן׃
5They hatch adders' eggs,
they weave the spider's web;
he who eats their eggs dies,
and from one which is crushed a viper is hatched.
 בֵּיצֵי צִפְעֹונִי בִּקֵּעוּ וְקוּרֵי עַכָּבִישׁ יֶאֱרֹגוּ הָאֹכֵל מִבֵּיצֵיהֶם יָמוּת וְהַזּוּרֶה תִּבָּקַע אֶפְעֶה׃
6Their webs will not serve as clothing;
men will not cover themselves with what they make.
Their works are works of iniquity,
and deeds of violence are in their hands.
 קוּרֵיהֶם לֹא־יִהְיוּ לְבֶגֶד וְלֹא יִתְכַּסּוּ בְּמַעֲשֵׂיהֶם מַעֲשֵׂיהֶם מַעֲשֵׂי־אָוֶן וּפֹעַל חָמָס בְּכַפֵּיהֶם׃
7Their feet run to evil,
and they make haste to shed innocent blood;
their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity,
desolation and destruction are in their highways.
 רַגְלֵיהֶם לָרַע יָרֻצוּ וִימַהֲרוּ לִשְׁפֹּךְ דָּם נָקִי מַחְשְׁבֹותֵיהֶם מַחְשְׁבֹות אָוֶן שֹׁד וָשֶׁבֶר בִּמְסִלֹּותָם׃
8The way of peace they know not,
and there is no justice in their paths;
they have made their roads crooked,
no one who goes in them knows peace.
 דֶּרֶךְ שָׁלֹום לֹא יָדָעוּ וְאֵין מִשְׁפָּט בְּמַעְגְּלֹותָם נְתִיבֹותֵיהֶם עִקְּשׁוּ לָהֶם כֹּל דֹּרֵךְ בָּהּ לֹא יָדַע שָׁלֹום׃

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
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 used the name 'Yahweh'.
(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.
