2About Egypt. Concerning the army of Pharaoh Neco, king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates at Carchemish and which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon defeated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:  לְמִצְרַיִם עַל־חֵיל פַּרְעֹה נְכֹו מֶלֶךְ מִצְרַיִם אֲשֶׁר־הָיָה עַל־נְהַר־פְּרָת בְּכַרְכְּמִשׁ אֲשֶׁר הִכָּה נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל בִּשְׁנַת הָרְבִיעִית לִיהֹויָקִים בֶּן־יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה׃
3"Prepare buckler and shield,
and advance for battle!
 עִרְכוּ מָגֵן וְצִנָּה וּגְשׁוּ לַמִּלְחָמָה׃
4Harness the horses;
mount, O horsemen!
Take your stations with your helmets,
polish your spears,
put on your coats of mail!
 אִסְרוּ הַסּוּסִים וַעֲלוּ הַפָּרָשִׁים וְהִתְיַצְּבוּ בְּכֹובָעִים מִרְקוּ הָרְמָחִים לִבְשׁוּ הַסִּרְיֹנֹת׃
5Why have I seen it?
They are dismayed and have turned backward.
Their warriors are beaten down,
and have fled in haste;
they look not back -
terror on every side!
says Yahweh.
 מַדּוּעַ רָאִיתִי הֵמָּה חַתִּים נְסֹגִים אָחֹור וְגִבֹּורֵיהֶם יֻכַּתּוּ וּמָנֹוס נָסוּ וְלֹא הִפְנוּ מָגֹור מִסָּבִיב נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃
6The swift cannot flee away,
nor the warrior escape;
in the north by the river Euphrates
they have stumbled and fallen.
 אַל־יָנוּס הַקַּל וְאַל־יִמָּלֵט הַגִּבֹּור צָפֹונָה עַל־יַד נְהַר־פְּרָת כָּשְׁלוּ וְנָפָלוּ׃
7"Who is this,
rising like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge?
 מִי־זֶה כַּיְאֹר יַעֲלֶה כַּנְּהָרֹות יִתְגָּעֲשׁוּ מֵימָיו׃
8Egypt rises like the Nile,
like rivers whose waters surge.
He said, I will rise,
I will cover the earth,
I will destroy cities and their inhabitants.
 מִצְרַיִם כַּיְאֹר יַעֲלֶה וְכַנְּהָרֹות יִתְגֹּעֲשׁוּ מָיִם וַיֹּאמֶר אַעֲלֶה אֲכַסֶּה־אֶרֶץ אֹבִידָה עִיר וְיֹשְׁבֵי בָהּ׃
9Advance, O horses,
and rage, O chariots!
Let the warriors go forth:
men of Ethiopia and Put who handle the shield,
men of Lud, skilled in handling the bow.
 עֲלוּ הַסּוּסִים וְהִתְהֹלְלוּ הָרֶכֶב וְיֵצְאוּ הַגִּבֹּורִים כּוּשׁ וּפוּט תֹּפְשֵׂי מָגֵן וְלוּדִים תֹּפְשֵׂי דֹּרְכֵי קָשֶׁת׃
10That day is the day of Yahweh GOD of hosts,
a day of vengeance,
to avenge himself on his foes.
The sword shall devour and be sated,
and drink its fill of their blood.
For Yahweh GOD of hosts holds a sacrifice
in the north country by the river Euphrates.
 וְהַיֹּום הַהוּא לַאדֹנָי יְהוִה צְבָאֹות יֹום נְקָמָה לְהִנָּקֵם מִצָּרָיו וְאָכְלָה חֶרֶב וְשָׂבְעָה וְרָוְתָה מִדָּםָם כִּי זֶבַח לַאדֹנָי יְהוִה צְבָאֹות בְּאֶרֶץ צָפֹון אֶל־נְהַר־פְּרָת׃
11Go up to Gilead, and take balm,
O virgin daughter of Egypt!
In vain you have used many medicines;
there is no healing for you.
 עֲלִי גִלְעָד וּקְחִי צֳרִי בְּתוּלַת בַּת־מִצְרָיִם לַשָּׁוְא כ= הִרְבֵּיתִי ק= הִרְבֵּית רְפֻאֹות תְּעָלָה אֵין לָךְ׃
12The nations have heard of your shame,
and the earth is full of your cry;
for warrior has stumbled against warrior;
they have both fallen together."
 שָׁמְעוּ גֹויִם קְלֹונֵךְ וְצִוְחָתֵךְ מָלְאָה הָאָרֶץ כִּי־גִבֹּור בְּגִבֹּור כָּשָׁלוּ יַחְדָּיו נָפְלוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם׃ ף

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.
