46 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

13The word which Yahweh spoke to Jeremiah the prophet about the coming of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon to smite the land of Egypt:The coming of Nebuchadnezzar. Jr.46.13-25הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה אֶל־יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא לָבֹוא נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל לְהַכֹּות אֶת־אֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם׃
14"Declare in Egypt, and proclaim in Migdol;
proclaim in Memphis and Tahpanhes;
Say, 'Stand ready and be prepared,
for the sword shall devour round about you.'
 הַגִּידוּ בְמִצְרַיִם וְהַשְׁמִיעוּ בְמִגְדֹּול וְהַשְׁמִיעוּ בְנֹף וּבְתַחְפַּנְחֵס אִמְרוּ הִתְיַצֵּב וְהָכֵן לָךְ כִּי־אָכְלָה חֶרֶב סְבִיבֶיךָ׃
15Why has Apis fled?
Why did not your bull stand?
Because Yahweh thrust him down.
 מַדּוּעַ נִסְחַף אַבִּירֶיךָ לֹא עָמַד כִּי יְהוָה הֲדָפֹו׃
16Your multitude stumbled and fell,
and they said one to another,
'Arise, and let us go back to our own people
and to the land of our birth,
because of the sword of the oppressor.'
 הִרְבָּה כֹּושֵׁל גַּם־נָפַל אִישׁ אֶל־רֵעֵהוּ וַיֹּאמְרוּ קוּמָה וְנָשֻׁבָה אֶל־עַמֵּנוּ וְאֶל־אֶרֶץ מֹולַדְתֵּנוּ מִפְּנֵי חֶרֶב הַיֹּונָה׃
17Call the name of Pharaoh, king of Egypt,
'Noisy one who lets the hour go by.'
 קָרְאוּ שָׁם פַּרְעֹה מֶלֶךְ־מִצְרַיִם שָׁאֹון הֶעֱבִיר הַמֹּועֵד׃
18"As I live, says the King,
whose name is Yahweh of hosts,
like Tabor among the mountains,
and like Carmel by the sea, shall one come.
 חַי־אָנִי נְאֻם־הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהוָה צְבָאֹות שְׁמֹו כִּי כְּתָבֹור בֶּהָרִים וּכְכַרְמֶל בַּיָּם יָבֹוא׃
19Prepare yourselves baggage for exile,
O inhabitants of Egypt!
For Memphis shall become a waste,
a ruin, without inhabitant.
 כְּלֵי גֹולָה עֲשִׂי לָךְ יֹושֶׁבֶת בַּת־מִצְרָיִם כִּי־נֹף לְשַׁמָּה תִהְיֶה וְנִצְּתָה מֵאֵין יֹושֵׁב׃ ס
20"A beautiful heifer is Egypt,
but a gadfly from the north has come upon her.
 עֶגְלָה יְפֵה־פִיָּה מִצְרָיִם קֶרֶץ מִצָּפֹון בָּא בָא׃
21Even her hired soldiers in her midst
are like fatted calves;
yea, they have turned and fled together,
they did not stand;
for the day of their calamity has come upon them,
the time of their punishment.
 גַּם־שְׂכִרֶיהָ בְקִרְבָּהּ כְּעֶגְלֵי מַרְבֵּק כִּי־גַם־הֵמָּה הִפְנוּ נָסוּ יַחְדָּיו לֹא עָמָדוּ כִּי יֹום אֵידָם בָּא עֲלֵיהֶם עֵת פְּקֻדָּתָם׃
22"She makes a sound like a serpent gliding away;
for her enemies march in force,
and come against her with axes,
like those who fell trees.
 קֹולָהּ כַּנָּחָשׁ יֵלֵךְ כִּי־בְחַיִל יֵלֵכוּ וּבְקַרְדֻּמֹּות בָּאוּ לָהּ כְּחֹטְבֵי עֵצִים׃
23They shall cut down her forest,
says Yahweh,
though it is impenetrable,
because they are more numerous than locusts;
they are without number.
 כָּרְתוּ יַעְרָהּ נְאֻם־יְהוָה כִּי לֹא יֵחָקֵר כִּי רַבּוּ מֵאַרְבֶּה וְאֵין לָהֶם מִסְפָּר׃
24The daughter of Egypt shall be put to shame,
she shall be delivered into the hand of a people from the north."
 הֹבִישָׁה בַּת־מִצְרָיִם נִתְּנָה בְּיַד עַם־צָפֹון׃
25Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, said: "Behold, I am bringing punishment upon Amon of Thebes, and Pharaoh, and Egypt and her gods and her kings, upon Pharaoh and those who trust in him.The LORD will save his people. Jr.46.25-28אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנְנִי פֹוקֵד אֶל־אָמֹון מִנֹּא וְעַל־פַּרְעֹה וְעַל־מִצְרַיִם וְעַל־אֱלֹהֶיהָ וְעַל־מְלָכֶיהָ וְעַל־פַּרְעֹה וְעַל הַבֹּטְחִים בֹּו׃

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.
