| 9 | Concerning the prophets: My heart is broken within me, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, like a man overcome by wine, because of Yahweh and because of his holy words. | Jeremiah's message about the prophets. Jr.23.9-32 | לַנְּבִאִים נִשְׁבַּר לִבִּי בְקִרְבִּי רָחֲפוּ כָּל־עַצְמֹותַי הָיִיתִי כְּאִישׁ שִׁכֹּור וּכְגֶבֶר עֲבָרֹו יָיִן מִפְּנֵי יְהוָה וּמִפְּנֵי דִּבְרֵי קָדְשֹׁו׃ |
| 10 | For the land is full of adulterers; because of the curse the land mourns, and the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. Their course is evil, and their might is not right. | כִּי מְנָאֲפִים מָלְאָה הָאָרֶץ כִּי־מִפְּנֵי אָלָה אָבְלָה הָאָרֶץ יָבְשׁוּ נְאֹות מִדְבָּר וַתְּהִי מְרוּצָתָם רָעָה וּגְבוּרָתָם לֹא־כֵן׃ | |
| 11 | "Both prophet and priest are ungodly; even in my house I have found their wickedness, says Yahweh. | כִּי־גַם־נָבִיא גַם־כֹּהֵן חָנֵפוּ גַּם־בְּבֵיתִי מָצָאתִי רָעָתָם נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃ | |
| 12 | Therefore their way shall be to them like slippery paths in the darkness, into which they shall be driven and fall; for I will bring evil upon them in the year of their punishment, says Yahweh. | לָכֵן יִהְיֶה דַרְכָּם לָהֶם כַּחֲלַקְלַקֹּות בָּאֲפֵלָה יִדַּחוּ וְנָפְלוּ בָהּ כִּי־אָבִיא עֲלֵיהֶם רָעָה שְׁנַת פְּקֻדָּתָם נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃ | |
| 13 | In the prophets of Samaria I saw an unsavory thing: they prophesied by Baal and led my people Israel astray. | וּבִנְבִיאֵי שֹׁמְרֹון רָאִיתִי תִפְלָה הִנַּבְּאוּ בַבַּעַל וַיַּתְעוּ אֶת־עַמִּי אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ ס | |
| 14 | But in the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery and walk in lies; they strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns from his wickedness; all of them have become like Sodom to me, and its inhabitants like Gomorrah." | וּבִנְבִאֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם רָאִיתִי שַׁעֲרוּרָה נָאֹוף וְהָלֹךְ בַּשֶּׁקֶר וְחִזְּקוּ יְדֵי מְרֵעִים לְבִלְתִּי־שָׁבוּ אִישׁ מֵרָעָתֹו הָיוּ־לִי כֻלָּם כִּסְדֹם וְיֹשְׁבֶיהָ כַּעֲמֹרָה׃ ס | |
| 15 | Therefore thus says Yahweh of hosts concerning the prophets: "Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and give them poisoned water to drink; for from the prophets of Jerusalem ungodliness has gone forth into all the land." | לָכֵן כֹּה־אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות עַל־הַנְּבִאִים הִנְנִי מַאֲכִיל אֹותָם לַעֲנָה וְהִשְׁקִתִים מֵי־רֹאשׁ כִּי מֵאֵת נְבִיאֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם יָצְאָה חֲנֻפָּה לְכָל־הָאָרֶץ׃ ף | |
| 16 | Thus says Yahweh of hosts: "Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, filling you with vain hopes; they speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of Yahweh. | כֹּה־אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות אַל־תִּשְׁמְעוּ עַל־דִּבְרֵי הַנְּבִאִים הַנִּבְּאִים לָכֶם מַהְבִּלִים הֵמָּה אֶתְכֶם חֲזֹון לִבָּם יְדַבֵּרוּ לֹא מִפִּי יְהוָה׃ | |
| 17 | They say continually to those who despise the word of Yahweh, 'It shall be well with you'; and to every one who stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, 'No evil shall come upon you.' " | אֹמְרִים אָמֹור לִמְנַאֲצַי דִּבֶּר יְהוָה שָׁלֹום יִהְיֶה לָכֶם וְכֹל הֹלֵךְ בִּשְׁרִרוּת לִבֹּו אָמְרוּ לֹא־תָבֹוא עֲלֵיכֶם רָעָה׃ | |
| 18 | For who among them has stood in the council of Yahweh to perceive and to hear his word, or who has given heed to his word and listened? | כִּי מִי עָמַד בְּסֹוד יְהוָה וְיֵרֶא וְיִשְׁמַע אֶת־דְּבָרֹו מִי־הִקְשִׁיב כ= דְּבָרִי ק= דְּבָרֹו וַיִּשְׁמָע׃ ס | |
| 19 | Behold, the storm of Yahweh! Wrath has gone forth, a whirling tempest; it will burst upon the head of the wicked. | הִנֵּה סַעֲרַת יְהוָה חֵמָה יָצְאָה וְסַעַר מִתְחֹולֵל עַל רֹאשׁ רְשָׁעִים יָחוּל׃ | |
| 20 | The anger of Yahweh will not turn back until he has executed and accomplished the intents of his mind. In the latter days you will understand it clearly. | לֹא יָשׁוּב אַף־יְהוָה עַד־עֲשֹׂתֹו וְעַד־הֲקִימֹו מְזִמֹּות לִבֹּו בְּאַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים תִּתְבֹּונְנוּ בָהּ בִּינָה׃ | |
| 21 | "I did not send the prophets, yet they ran; I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied. | לֹא־שָׁלַחְתִּי אֶת־הַנְּבִאִים וְהֵם רָצוּ לֹא־דִבַּרְתִּי אֲלֵיהֶם וְהֵם נִבָּאוּ׃ | |
| 22 | But if they had stood in my council, then they would have proclaimed my words to my people, and they would have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. | וְאִם־עָמְדוּ בְּסֹודִי וְיַשְׁמִעוּ דְבָרַי אֶת־עַמִּי וִישִׁבוּם מִדַּרְכָּם הָרָע וּמֵרֹעַ מַעַלְלֵיהֶם׃ ס | |
| 23 | "Am I a God at hand, says Yahweh, and not a God afar off? | הַאֱלֹהֵי מִקָּרֹב אָנִי נְאֻם־יְהוָה וְלֹא אֱלֹהֵי מֵרָחֹק׃ | |
| 24 | Can a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him? says Yahweh. Do I not fill heaven and earth? says Yahweh. | אִם־יִסָּתֵר אִישׁ בַּמִּסְתָּרִים וַאֲנִי לֹא־אֶרְאֶנּוּ נְאֻם־יְהוָה הֲלֹוא אֶת־הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֶת־הָאָרֶץ אֲנִי מָלֵא נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃ | |
| 25 | I have heard what the prophets have said who prophesy lies in my name, saying, 'I have dreamed, I have dreamed! | שָׁמַעְתִּי אֵת אֲשֶׁר־אָמְרוּ הַנְּבִאִים הַנִּבְּאִים בִּשְׁמִי שֶׁקֶר לֵאמֹר חָלַמְתִּי חָלָמְתִּי׃ | |
| 26 | How long shall there be lies in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, and who prophesy the deceit of their own heart, | עַד־מָתַי הֲיֵשׁ בְּלֵב הַנְּבִאִים נִבְּאֵי הַשָּׁקֶר וּנְבִיאֵי תַּרְמִת לִבָּם׃ | |
| 27 | who think to make my people forget my name by their dreams which they tell one another, even as their fathers forgot my name for Baal? | הַחֹשְׁבִים לְהַשְׁכִּיחַ אֶת־עַמִּי שְׁמִי בַּחֲלֹומֹתָם אֲשֶׁר יְסַפְּרוּ אִישׁ לְרֵעֵהוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר שָׁכְחוּ אֲבֹותָם אֶת־שְׁמִי בַּבָּעַל׃ | |
| 28 | Let the prophet who has a dream tell the dream, but let him who has my word speak my word faithfully. What has straw in common with wheat? says Yahweh. | הַנָּבִיא אֲשֶׁר־אִתֹּו חֲלֹום יְסַפֵּר חֲלֹום וַאֲשֶׁר דְּבָרִי אִתֹּו יְדַבֵּר דְּבָרִי אֱמֶת מַה־לַתֶּבֶן אֶת־הַבָּר נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃ | |
| 29 | Is not my word like fire, says Yahweh, and like a hammer which breaks the rock in pieces? | הֲלֹוא כֹה דְבָרִי כָּאֵשׁ נְאֻם־יְהוָה וּכְפַטִּישׁ יְפֹץֵץ סָלַע׃ ס | |
| 30 | Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, who steal my words from one another. | לָכֵן הִנְנִי עַל־הַנְּבִאִים נְאֻם־יְהוָה מְגַנְּבֵי דְבָרַי אִישׁ מֵאֵת רֵעֵהוּ׃ | |
| 31 | Behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, who use their tongues and say, 'Says Yahweh.' | הִנְנִי עַל־הַנְּבִיאִם נְאֻם־יְהוָה הַלֹּקְחִים לְשֹׁונָם וַיִּנְאֲמוּ נְאֻם׃ | |
| 32 | Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says Yahweh, and who tell them and lead my people astray by their lies and their recklessness, when I did not send them or charge them; so they do not profit this people at all, says Yahweh. | הִנְנִי עַל־נִבְּאֵי חֲלֹמֹות שֶׁקֶר נְאֻם־יְהוָה וַיְסַפְּרוּם וַיַּתְעוּ אֶת־עַמִּי בְּשִׁקְרֵיהֶם וּבְפַחֲזוּתָם וְאָנֹכִי לֹא־שְׁלַחְתִּים וְלֹא צִוִּיתִים וְהֹועֵיל לֹא־יֹועִילוּ לָעָם־הַזֶּה נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃ | |
