1 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

2"I will utterly sweep away everything
from the face of the earth," says Yahweh.
The day of the LORD's judgement. Zph.1.2-18אָסֹף אָסֵף כֹּל מֵעַל פְּנֵי הָאֲדָמָה נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃
3"I will sweep away man and beast;
I will sweep away the birds of the air
and the fish of the sea.
I will overthrow the wicked;
I will cut off mankind
from the face of the earth," says Yahweh.
 אָסֵף אָדָם וּבְהֵמָה אָסֵף עֹוף־הַשָּׁמַיִם וּדְגֵי הַיָּם וְהַמַּכְשֵׁלֹות אֶת־הָרְשָׁעִים וְהִכְרַתִּי אֶת־הָאָדָם מֵעַל פְּנֵי הָאֲדָמָה נְאֻם־יְהוָה׃
4"I will stretch out my hand against Judah,
and against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
and I will cut off from this place the remnant of Baal
and the name of the idolatrous priests;
 וְנָטִיתִי יָדִי עַל־יְהוּדָה וְעַל כָּל־יֹושְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלִָם וְהִכְרַתִּי מִן־הַמָּקֹום הַזֶּה אֶת־שְׁאָר הַבַּעַל אֶת־שֵׁם הַכְּמָרִים עִם־הַכֹּהֲנִים׃
5those who bow down on the roofs
to the host of the heavens;
those who bow down and swear to Yahweh
and yet swear by Milcom;
 וְאֶת־הַמִּשְׁתַּחֲוִים עַל־הַגַּגֹּות לִצְבָא הַשָּׁמָיִם וְאֶת־הַמִּשְׁתַּחֲוִים הַנִּשְׁבָּעִים לַיהוָה וְהַנִּשְׁבָּעִים בְּמַלְכָּם׃
6those who have turned back from following Yahweh,
who do not seek Yahweh or inquire of him."
 וְאֶת־הַנְּסֹוגִים מֵאַחֲרֵי יְהוָה וַאֲשֶׁר לֹא־בִקְשׁוּ אֶת־יְהוָה וְלֹא דְרָשֻׁהוּ׃
7Be silent before Yahweh GOD!
For the day of Yahweh is at hand;
Yahweh has prepared a sacrifice
and consecrated his guests.
 הַס מִפְּנֵי אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה כִּי קָרֹוב יֹום יְהוָה כִּי־הֵכִין יְהוָה זֶבַח הִקְדִּישׁ קְרֻאָיו׃
8And on the day of Yahweh'S sacrifice -
"I will punish the officials and the king's sons
and all who array themselves in foreign attire.
 וְהָיָה בְּיֹום זֶבַח יְהוָה וּפָקַדְתִּי עַל־הַשָּׂרִים וְעַל־בְּנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וְעַל כָּל־הַלֹּבְשִׁים מַלְבּוּשׁ נָכְרִי׃
9On that day I will punish
every one who leaps over the threshold,
and those who fill their master's house
with violence and fraud."
 וּפָקַדְתִּי עַל כָּל־הַדֹּולֵג עַל־הַמִּפְתָּן בַּיֹּום הַהוּא הַמְמַלְאִים בֵּית אֲדֹנֵיהֶם חָמָס וּמִרְמָה׃ ס
10"On that day," says Yahweh, "
a cry will be heard from the Fish Gate,
a wail from the Second Quarter,
a loud crash from the hills.
 וְהָיָה בַיֹּום הַהוּא נְאֻם־יְהוָה קֹול צְעָקָה מִשַּׁעַר הַדָּגִים וִילָלָה מִן־הַמִּשְׁנֶה וְשֶׁבֶר גָּדֹול מֵהַגְּבָעֹות׃
11Wail, O inhabitants of the Mortar!
For all the traders are no more;
all who weigh out silver are cut off.
 הֵילִילוּ יֹשְׁבֵי הַמַּכְתֵּשׁ כִּי נִדְמָה כָּל־עַם כְּנַעַן נִכְרְתוּ כָּל־נְטִילֵי כָסֶף׃
12At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps,
and I will punish the men
who are thickening upon their lees,
those who say in their hearts,
'Yahweh will not do good,
nor will he do ill.'
 וְהָיָה בָּעֵת הַהִיא אֲחַפֵּשׂ אֶת־יְרוּשָׁלִַם בַּנֵּרֹות וּפָקַדְתִּי עַל־הָאֲנָשִׁים הַקֹּפְאִים עַל־שִׁמְרֵיהֶם הָאֹמְרִים בִּלְבָבָם לֹא־יֵיטִיב יְהוָה וְלֹא יָרֵעַ׃
13Their goods shall be plundered,
and their houses laid waste.
Though they build houses,
they shall not inhabit them;
though they plant vineyards,
they shall not drink wine from them."
 וְהָיָה חֵילָם לִמְשִׁסָּה וּבָתֵּיהֶם לִשְׁמָמָה וּבָנוּ בָתִּים וְלֹא יֵשֵׁבוּ וְנָטְעוּ כְרָמִים וְלֹא יִשְׁתּוּ אֶת־יֵינָם׃
14The great day of Yahweh is near,
near and hastening fast;
the sound of the day of Yahweh is bitter,
the mighty man cries aloud there.
 קָרֹוב יֹום־יְהוָה הַגָּדֹול קָרֹוב וּמַהֵר מְאֹד קֹול יֹום יְהוָה מַר צֹרֵחַ שָׁם גִּבֹּור׃
15A day of wrath is that day,
a day of distress and anguish,
a day of ruin and devastation,
a day of darkness and gloom,
a day of clouds and thick darkness,
 יֹום עֶבְרָה הַיֹּום הַהוּא יֹום צָרָה וּמְצוּקָה יֹום שֹׁאָה וּמְשֹׁואָה יֹום חֹשֶׁךְ וַאֲפֵלָה יֹום עָןָן וַעֲרָפֶל׃
16a day of trumpet blast and battle cry
against the fortified cities
and against the lofty battlements.
 יֹום שֹׁופָר וּתְרוּעָה עַל הֶעָרִים הַבְּצֻרֹות וְעַל הַפִּנֹּות הַגְּבֹהֹות׃
17I will bring distress on men,
so that they shall walk like the blind,
because they have sinned against Yahweh;
their blood shall be poured out like dust,
and their flesh like dung.
 וַהֲצֵרֹתִי לָאָדָם וְהָלְכוּ כַּעִוְרִים כִּי לַיהוָה חָטָאוּ וְשֻׁפַּךְ דָּםָם כֶּעָפָר וּלְחֻםָם כַּגְּלָלִים׃
18Neither their silver nor their gold
shall be able to deliver them
on the day of the wrath of Yahweh.
In the fire of his jealous wrath,
all the earth shall be consumed;
for a full, yea, sudden end
he will make of all the inhabitants of the earth.
 גַּם־כַּסְפָּם גַּם־זְהָבָם לֹא־יוּכַל לְהַצִּילָם בְּיֹום עֶבְרַת יְהוָה וּבְאֵשׁ קִנְאָתֹו תֵּאָכֵל כָּל־הָאָרֶץ כִּי־כָלָה אַךְ־נִבְהָלָה יַעֲשֶׂה אֵת כָּל־יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ׃ ס

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.
