3 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

6Yahweh said to me in the days of King Josiah: "Have you seen what she did, that faithless one, Israel, how she went up on every high hill and under every green tree, and there played the harlot? Israel & Judah must repent. Jr.3.6-18וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֵלַי בִּימֵי יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ הֲרָאִיתָ אֲשֶׁר עָשְׂתָה מְשֻׁבָה יִשְׂרָאֵל הֹלְכָה הִיא עַל־כָּל־הַר גָּבֹהַּ וְאֶל־תַּחַת כָּל־עֵץ רַעֲןָן וַתִּזְנִי־שָׁם׃
7And I thought, 'After she has done all this she will return to me'; but she did not return, and her false sister Judah saw it.  וָאֹמַר אַחֲרֵי עֲשֹׂותָהּ אֶת־כָּל־אֵלֶּה אֵלַי תָּשׁוּב וְלֹא־שָׁבָה כ= וַתֵּרֶאה ק= וַתֵּרֶא בָּגֹודָה אֲחֹותָהּ יְהוּדָה׃
8She saw that for all the adulteries of that faithless one, Israel, I had sent her away with a decree of divorce; yet her false sister Judah did not fear, but she too went and played the harlot.  וָאֵרֶא כִּי עַל־כָּל־אֹדֹות אֲשֶׁר נִאֲפָה מְשֻׁבָה יִשְׂרָאֵל שִׁלַּחְתִּיהָ וָאֶתֵּן אֶת־סֵפֶר כְּרִיתֻתֶיהָ אֵלֶיהָ וְלֹא יָרְאָה בֹּגֵדָה יְהוּדָה אֲחֹותָהּ וַתֵּלֶךְ וַתִּזֶן גַּם־הִיא׃
9Because harlotry was so light to her, she polluted the land, committing adultery with stone and tree. וְהָיָה מִקֹּל זְנוּתָהּ וַתֶּחֱנַף אֶת־הָאָרֶץ וַתִּנְאַף אֶת־הָאֶבֶן וְאֶת־הָעֵץ׃
10Yet for all this her false sister Judah did not return to me with her whole heart, but in pretence, says Yahweh."  וְגַם־בְּכָל־זֹאת לֹא־שָׁבָה אֵלַי בָּגֹודָה אֲחֹותָהּ יְהוּדָה בְּכָל־לִבָּהּ כִּי אִם־בְּשֶׁקֶר נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃ ף
11And Yahweh said to me, "Faithless Israel has shown herself less guilty than false Judah.  וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֵלַי צִדְּקָה נַפְשָׁהּ מְשֻׁבָה יִשְׂרָאֵל מִבֹּגֵדָה יְהוּדָה׃
12Go, and proclaim these words toward the north, and say,

'Return, faithless Israel,
says Yahweh.
I will not look on you in anger,
for I am merciful, says Yahweh;
I will not be angry for ever.

 הָלֹךְ וְקָרָאתָ אֶת־הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה צָפֹונָה וְאָמַרְתָּ שׁוּבָה מְשֻׁבָה יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם־יְהוָה לֹוא־אַפִּיל פָּנַי בָּכֶם כִּי־חָסִיד אֲנִי נְאֻם־יְהוָה לֹא אֶטֹּור לְעֹולָם׃
13Only acknowledge your guilt,
that you rebelled against Yahweh your God
and scattered your favours among strangers under every green tree,
and that you have not obeyed my voice,
says Yahweh.
 אַךְ דְּעִי עֲוֹנֵךְ כִּי בַּיהוָה אֱלֹהַיִךְ פָּשָׁעַתְּ וַתְּפַזְּרִי אֶת־דְּרָכַיִךְ לַזָּרִים תַּחַת כָּל־עֵץ רַעֲןָן וּבְקֹולִי לֹא־שְׁמַעְתֶּם נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה׃
14Return, O faithless children,
says Yahweh;
for I am your master;
I will take you, one from a city and two from a family,
and I will bring you to Zion.
 שׁוּבוּ בָנִים שֹׁובָבִים נְאֻם־יְהוָה כִּי אָנֹכִי בָּעַלְתִּי בָכֶם וְלָקַחְתִּי אֶתְכֶם אֶחָד מֵעִיר וּשְׁנַיִם מִמִּשְׁפָּחָה וְהֵבֵאתִי אֶתְכֶם צִיֹּון׃
15" 'And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.  וְנָתַתִּי לָכֶם רֹעִים כְּלִבִּי וְרָעוּ אֶתְכֶם דֵּעָה וְהַשְׂכֵּיל׃
16And when you have multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, says Yahweh, they shall no more say, "The ark of the covenant of Yahweh." It shall not come to mind, or be remembered, or missed; it shall not be made again.  וְהָיָה כִּי תִרְבּוּ וּפְרִיתֶם בָּאָרֶץ בַּיָּמִים הָהֵמָּה נְאֻם־יְהוָה לֹא־יֹאמְרוּ עֹוד אֲרֹון בְּרִית־יְהוָה וְלֹא יַעֲלֶה עַל־לֵב וְלֹא יִזְכְּרוּ־בֹו וְלֹא יִפְקֹדוּ וְלֹא יֵעָשֶׂה עֹוד׃
17At that time Jerusalem shall be called the throne of Yahweh, and all nations shall gather to it, to the presence of Yahweh in Jerusalem, and they shall no more stubbornly follow their own evil heart.  בָּעֵת הַהִיא יִקְרְאוּ לִירוּשָׁלִַם כִּסֵּא יְהוָה וְנִקְוּוּ אֵלֶיהָ כָל־הַגֹּויִם לְשֵׁם יְהוָה לִירוּשָׁלִָם וְלֹא־יֵלְכוּ עֹוד אַחֲרֵי שְׁרִרוּת לִבָּם הָרָע׃ ס
18In those days the house of Judah shall join the house of Israel, and together they shall come from the land of the north to the land that I gave your fathers for a heritage.  בַּיָּמִים הָהֵמָּה יֵלְכוּ בֵית־יְהוּדָה עַל־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיָבֹאוּ יַחְדָּו מֵאֶרֶץ צָפֹון עַל־הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר הִנְחַלְתִּי אֶת־אֲבֹותֵיכֶם׃

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.
