Isaiah 50 Thus says the lord, Of what kind is this scroll of the certificate of divorce of your mother, by which I sent her away? or to which debtor of the ones exacting me have I sold you to him? Behold, for your sins you were sold; and for your lawless deeds I sent away your mother.

1 G3779 Thus G3004 says G2962 the lord, G4169 Of what kind G3778 is this G975 scroll G3588 of the G647 certificate of divorce G3588 G3384 of your mother, G1473 G3739 by which G1821 I sent her away? G1473 G2228 or G5100 to which G5297.4 debtor G3588 of the ones G4238 exacting G1473 me G4097 have I sold G1473 you G1473 to him? G2400 Behold, G3588 G266 for your sins G1473 G4097 you were sold; G2532 and G3588 G458 for your lawless deeds G1473 G1821 I sent away G3588 G3384 your mother. G1473

2 G5100 Why G3754 is it that G2064 I came, G2532 and G3756 there was no G1510.7.3 G444 man? G2564 I called G2532 and G3756 there was none G1510.7.3 G3588 G5219 hearkening. G3378 Is not G2480 [²strong G3588 G5495 ¹my hand] G1473 G3588 G4506 to rescue? G2228 or G3756 am I not G2480 able G3588 G1807 to rescue? G2400 Behold, G3588 G1648.1 by my rebuke G1473 G1830.2 I shall make quite desolate G3588 the G2281 sea, G2532 and G5087 I shall make G4215 rivers G2048 desolate places; G2532 and G3583 [²shall be dried up G3588 G2486 ¹their fishes] G1473 G575 from G3588 G3361 there not being G1510.1 G5204 water; G2532 and G599 they shall die G1722 for G1373 thirst.

3 G1746 I shall clothe G3588 the G3772 heaven G4655 with darkness, G2532 and G5613 [³as G4526 ⁴sackcloth G5087 ¹I shall make G3588 G4018 ²its wrap-around garment]. G1473

4 G2962 The Lord, G2962 the lord G1325 gives G1473 to me G1100 a tongue G3809 of instruction G3588 G1097 to know G2259 when G1163 it is necessary G2036 to speak G3056 a word. G5087 He stood G1473 me G4404 morning G4404 by morning. G4369 He added G1473 an ear for me G5621 G191 to hear.

5 G2532 And G3588 the G3809 instruction G2962 of the lord G455 opens G1473 my G3588 G3775 ears, G1473 and I G1161 G3756 do not G544 resist persuasion, G3761 nor G483 do I dispute.

6 G3588 G3577 My back G1473 G1325 I have given G1519 to G3148 whips, G3588 G1161 and G4600 my jaws G1473 G1519 for G4475 slaps, G3588 G1161 and G4383 my face G1473 G3756 I did not G654 turn G575 from G152 the shame G1715.2 of ones spitting.

7 G2532 And G2962 the Lord, G2962 the lord G998 [²a helper to me G1473 G1096 ¹was]. G1223 On account of G3778 this G3756 I was not G1788 ashamed, G235 but G5087 I set G3588 G4383 my face G1473 G5613 as G4731 a solid G4073 rock; G2532 and G1097 I knew G3754 that G3766.2 in no way G153 should I be ashamed.

8 G3754 For G1448 [⁴approaches G3588 ¹the one G1344 ²justifying G1473 ³me]. G5100 Who is G3588 the G2919 one judging G1473 me? G436 Let him oppose G1473 me G260 at the same time! G2532 Yes, G5100 who is G3588 the one G2919 judging G1473 me? G1448 Let him approach G1473 to me!

9 G2400 Behold, G2962 the lord G997 shall help G1473 me. G5100 Who G2559 shall inflict evil G1473 on me? G2400 Behold, G3956 [²all G1473 ¹you G5613 ⁴as G2440 ⁵a cloak G3822 ³shall become old], G2532 and G5613 as G4597 a moth G2719 you shall be devoured. G1473

10 G5100 Who G1722 among G1473 you G3588 is the one G5399 fearing G3588 the G2962 lord ? G5219 let him obey G3588 the G5456 voice G3588 G3816 of his servant! G1473 G3588 Let the ones G4198 going G1722 in G4655 darkness, G2532 and G3756 there is no G1510.2.3 G1473 light for them, G5457 G3982 yield G1909 upon G3588 the G3686 name G2962 of the lord, G2532 and G496.6 support yourselves G1909 upon G3588 G2316 God!

11 G2400 Behold, G3956 you all G1473 G4442 [²a fire G2545 ¹kindle], G2532 and G2729 you strengthen G5395 the flame; G4198 you go G3588 to the G5457 light G3588 G4442 of your fire, G1473 G2532 and G3588 the G5395 flame G3739 which G1572 you kindled. G1223 On account of G1473 me G1096 [²came to pass G3778 ¹these things] G1473 to you; G1722 [²in G3077 ³distress G2837 ¹you shall remain the night].

1 H559 [H8804] Thus saith H3068 the LORD, H5612 Where is the bill H517 of your mother's H3748 divorcement, H7971 [H8765] whom I have put away? H5383 [H8802] or whom of my creditors H4376 [H8804] is it to whom I have sold H5771 you? Behold, for your perversities H4376 [H8738] have ye sold H6588 yourselves, and for your revolts H517 is your mother H7971 [H8795] put away.

2 H935 [H8804] Why, when I came, H376 was there no man? H7121 [H8804] when I called, H6030 [H8802] was there none to answer? H3027 Is my hand H7114 [H8804] shortened H7114 [H8800] at all, H6304 that it cannot redeem? H3581 or have I no power H5337 [H8687] to deliver? H1606 behold, at my rebuke H2717 [H8686] I dry up H3220 the sea, H7760 [H8799] I make H5104 the rivers H4057 a wilderness: H1710 their fish H887 [H8799] stinketh, H4325 because there is no water, H4191 [H8799] and dieth H6772 for thirst.

3 H3847 [H8686] I clothe H8064 the heavens H6940 with blackness, H7760 [H8799] and I make H8242 sackcloth H3682 their covering.

4 H136 The Sovereign H3069 LORD H5414 [H8804] hath given H3956 me the tongue H3928 of the learned, H3045 [H8800] that I should know H5790 [H8800] how to speak H1697 a word H3287 in season to him that is weary: H5782 [H8686] he awakeneth H1242 morning H1242 by morning, H5782 [H8686] he awakeneth H241 my ear H8085 [H8800] to hear H3928 as the learned.

5 H136 The Sovereign H3069 LORD H6605 [H8804] opened H241 my ear, H4784 [H8804] and I was not rebellious, H5472 H268 [H8738] neither turned backward.

6 H5414 [H8804] I gave H1460 my back H5221 [H8688] to the smiters, H3895 and my cheeks H4803 [H8802] to them that plucked off H5641 [H8689] the hair: I hid H6440 not my face H3639 from disgrace H7536 and spitting.

7 H136 For the Sovereign H3069 LORD H5826 [H8799] will help H3637 [H8738] me; therefore shall I not be confounded: H7760 [H8804] therefore have I set H6440 my face H2496 like a flint, H3045 [H8799] and I know H954 [H8799] that I shall not be pale.

8 H7138 He is near H6663 [H8688] that justifieth H7378 [H8799] me; who will contend H5975 [H8799] with me? let us stand H3162 together: H1167 H4941 who is my adversary? H5066 [H8799] let him come near to me.

9 H136 Behold, the Sovereign H3069 LORD H5826 [H8799] will help H7561 [H8686] me; who is he that shall condemn H1086 [H8799] me? lo, they all shall grow old H899 as a garment; H6211 the moth H398 [H8799] shall eat them up.

10 H3373 Who is among you that feareth H3068 the LORD, H8085 [H8802] that obeyeth H6963 the voice H5650 of his servant, H1980 [H8804] that walketh H2825 in darkness, H5051 and hath no light? H982 [H8799] let him trust H8034 in the name H3068 of the LORD, H8172 [H8735] and rely H430 upon his God.

11 H6919 [H8802] Behold, all ye that kindle H784 a fire, H247 [H8764] that surround yourselves H2131 with sparks: H3212 [H8798] walk H217 in the light H784 of your fire, H2131 and in the sparks H1197 [H8765] that ye have kindled. H3027 This shall ye have of my hand; H7901 [H8799] ye shall lie down H4620 in sorrow.

Behold, for your own offenses are ye sold: and because of your transgression, is your mother forsaken. ² For why would no man receive me, when I came? And when I called, no man gave me answer.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Thus saith the Lord, Of what sort was the bill of your mother's divorce with which I divorced her? Or to what creditor have I sold you?

Or have I no power to rescue? Behold with my rebuke I can dry up the sea, and make the rivers a desert, so that the fishes thereof shall shrivel for want of water, and die for thirst. I can clothe the heaven with darkness, and make its covering like sackcloth. ⁴ The Lord Lord giveth me an instructed tongue, to know when it is proper to speak a word. He gave it me in the morning; he gave me in addition an ear to hear. ⁵ And the instruction of the Lord, Lord openeth mine ears and I am not rebellious, nor do I gainsay. ⁶ My back I have given to scourges, and my cheeks to be slapped with an open hand, and I turned not my face from the shame of spittles. ⁷ Indeed the Lord Lord was my helper; therefore I was not ashamed, but kept my countenance firm as a rock. I knew indeed that I should not be confounded, ⁸ because he who justified me is near at hand. Who is he that contendeth with me? Let him stand up with me face to face.

I called, and there is none answering, Hath My hand been at all short of redemption? And is there not in me power to deliver? Lo, by My rebuke I dry up a sea, I make rivers a wilderness, Their fish stinketh, for there is no water, And dieth with thirst. ³ I clothe the heavens with blackness, And sackcloth I make their covering.
⁴ The Lord Jehovah hath given to me The tongue of taught ones, To know to aid the weary by a word, He waketh morning by morning, He waketh for me an ear to hear as taught ones. ⁵ The Lord Jehovah opened for me the ear, And I rebelled not—backward I moved not. ⁶ My back I have given to those smiting, And my cheeks to those plucking out, My face I hid not from shame and spitting. ⁷ And the Lord Jehovah giveth help to me, Therefore I have not been ashamed, Therefore I have set my face as a flint, And I know that I am not ashamed. ⁸ Near is He who is justifying me, Who doth contend with me? We stand together, who is mine opponent? Let him come nigh unto me. ⁹ Lo, the Lord Jehovah giveth help to me, Who is he that declareth me wicked?

Is my hand at all shortened that I cannot redeem, or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make rivers a wilderness; their fish stink because there is no water, and die for thirst. ³ I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering. ⁴ The Lord Jehovah hath given me the tongue of the instructed, that I should know how to succour by a word him that is weary. He wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the instructed. ⁵ The Lord Jehovah hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious; I turned not away back. ⁶ I gave my back to smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. ⁷ But the Lord Jehovah will help me: therefore shall I not be confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. ⁸ He is near that justifieth me: who will contend with me? let us stand together; who is mine adverse party? let him draw near unto me. ⁹ Behold, the Lord Jehovah will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall grow old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up. ¹⁰ Who is among you that feareth Jehovah, that hearkeneth to the voice of his servant? he that walketh in darkness, and hath no light, -- let him confide in the name of Jehovah, and stay himself upon his God. ¹¹ Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and among the sparks [that] ye have kindled.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Thus, saith Yahweh––Where then is the scroll of your mother’s divorce, whom I have put away? Or, which of my creditors, is it, to whom I have sold you? Lo! for your iniquities, have ye been sold, And, for your transgressions, hath your mother been put away. ² Wherefore, When I came in, was there no, one? When I called, was there none, to answer? Is mine own hand, really shortened, that it cannot redeem? Or is there not, in me, strength, to deliver? Lo! by my rebuke, I dry up the sea, I make rivers a desert, Their fish, Stinketh, for want of water, Yea dieth, for thirst: ³ I clothe the heavens with gloom, And, of sackcloth, make I their covering.
⁴ My Lord Yahweh, hath given unto me the tongue of the instructed, That I should know how to succour the fainting, with discourse,––He kept wakening––morning by morning, He kept wakening mine ear, to hearken, as do the instructed; ⁵ My Lord, Yahweh, opened mine ear, And, I, was not rebellious,––Away, turned I not: ⁶ My back, gave I to smiters, and, My cheeks, to them who pulled out the beard,––My face, hid I not, from insult and spitting. ⁷ Because, My Lord, Yahweh, would help me, Therefore, was I not deterred by insult,––Therefore, did I set my face, like flint, And I knew, that I should not be put to shame. ⁸ At hand, is one who can justify me. Who, will contend with me? let, us stand forth together,––Who, can accuse me? let him draw near to me! ⁹ Lo! My Lord, Yahweh, will help me, Who, is he, that shall prove me lawless? Lo! they all, as a garment, shall fall to pieces, The moth, shall consume them.
¹⁰ Who, among you, revereth Yahweh, Hearkening unto the voice of his Servant,––That hath walked in dark places, And hath had no gleam of light? Let him trust in the name of Yahweh, And lean upon his God. ¹¹ Lo! all ye that kindle a fire, That gird yourselves with fiery darts,––Walk ye in the blaze of your own fire, And in the fiery darts ye have kindled, At my hand, hath this befallen you, In sorrow, shall ye lie down.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Thus says Yahweh, "Where is this scroll of divorce of your mother, with which I let her go? Or which of My creditors is it to whom I sold you? Behold! For your depravities were you sold, and for your transgressions was your mother sent away." ² For what reason, when I came, was there no man? I called, and there was no answer? Is My hand too short to ransom? Or should no vigor be in Me to rescue? Behold! By My rebuke will I drain the sea; I will convert streams into a wilderness. Their fish will dry up, because there is no water, and they will die from thirst." ³ I will clothe the heavens with somberness, and I will make sackcloth their covering." ⁴ My Lord Yahweh gives me the tongue of the taught, to know in season to counsel with a word. And He is rousing morning by morning, and He is rousing my ear to hear as the taught." ⁵ My Lord Yahweh Elohim opens my ear, and I do not rebel. Thereafter I am not turned away." ⁶ My body I give to smiters, and my cheeks to burnishers. My face I do not conceal from confoundings and spitting." ⁷ And my Lord Yahweh is helping me. Therefore, I am not confounded. Therefore I set my face as a flint, and know that I shall not be shamed." ⁸ Near is my Justifier. Who will contend with me? We will stand together. Who possesses my judgment? He shall come close to me. ⁹ Behold! My Lord Yahweh will help me. Who is he who will condemn me? Behold! All of them, as a garment, will decay. The moth shall devour them." ¹⁰ Who among you fears Yahweh, hearing the voice of His servant? Who goes in darkness, and there is no brightness for him? Is he trusting in the name of Yahweh, and leaning on his Elohim? ¹¹ Behold! All of you are kindlers of fire, lighters of flambeaux. Walk in the light of your fire, and of the flambeaux you consume. From My hand this comes to you:For grief shall you lie down."

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ This is the word of the Lord: Where is the statement which I gave your mother when I put her away? or to which of my creditors have I given you for money? It was for your sins that you were given into the hands of others, and for your evil-doing was your mother put away. ² Why, then, when I came, was there no man? and no one to give answer to my voice? has my hand become feeble, so that it is unable to take up your cause? or have I no power to make you free? See, at my word the sea becomes dry, I make the rivers a waste land: their fish are dead for need of water, and make an evil smell. ³ By me the heavens are clothed with black, and I make haircloth their robe. ⁴ The Lord God has given me the tongue of those who are experienced, so that I may be able to give the word a special sense for the feeble: every morning my ear is open to his teaching, like those who are experienced: ⁵ And I have not put myself against him, or let my heart be turned back from him. ⁶ I was offering my back to those who gave me blows, and my face to those who were pulling out my hair: I did not keep my face covered from marks of shame. ⁷ For the Lord God is my helper; I will not be put to shame: so I have made my face like a rock, and I am certain that he will give me my right. ⁸ He who takes up my cause is near; who will go to law with me? let us come together before the judge: who is against me? let him come near to me. ⁹ See, the Lord God is my helper; who will give a decision against me? truly, all of them will become old like a robe; they will be food for the worm. ¹⁰ Who among you has the fear of the Lord, giving ear to the voice of his servant who has been walking in the dark and has no light? Let him put his faith in the name of the Lord, looking to his God for support. ¹¹ See, all you who make a fire, arming yourselves with burning branches: go in the flame of your fire, and among the branches you have put a light to. This will you have from my hand, you will make your bed in sorrow.

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ So says Jehovah, Where is your mother's bill of divorce, whom I have put away? Or to which of My creditors have I sold you? Behold, you were sold for your iniquities, and your mother is put away for your sins. ² Who knows why I have come, and no one is here? I called and no one answered. Is My hand shortened at all so that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst. ³ I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering. ⁴ The Lord Jehovah has given Me the tongue of the learned, to know to help the weary with a word. He wakens morning by morning, He wakens the ear to hear as the learned. ⁵ The Lord Jehovah has opened My ear, and I was not rebellious, nor turned away backwards. ⁶ I gave My back to the strikers, and My cheeks to pluckers; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting. ⁷ For the Lord Jehovah will help Me; therefore I have not been ashamed. On account of this I have set My face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. ⁸ He is near who justifies Me; who will contend with Me? Let us stand together; who is master of My judgment? Let him come near Me. ⁹ Behold, the Lord Jehovah will help Me; who is he who shall condemn Me?

Is My hand truly cut short from ransom? Or is there not power in Me to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea; I make rivers a wilderness; their fish stink because of no water, and die in thirst. ³ I clothe the heavens with blackness, and sackcloth makes their covering. ⁴ The Lord Jehovah has given to Me the tongue of taught ones, to know to help the weary with a word. He arouses in the morning; He wakens the ear to Me, to hear as the learned. ⁵ The Lord Jehovah has opened My ear and I did not rebel; I did not turn away backwards. ⁶ I gave My back to strikers, and My cheeks to pluckers; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting. ⁷ And the Lord Jehovah will help Me. On account of this I was not ashamed. On account of this I set My face like flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. ⁸ My Justifier is near. Who will contend with Me?

Their fish stink because there is no water, and people die of thirst. ³ »I clothe the heavens in darkness and cover them with sackcloth.« ⁴ The Lord Jehovah will teach me what to say, so I will know how to encourage tired people. Morning after morning he will wake me to listen like a student. ⁵ The Lord Jehovah has opened my ears. I will not rebel, nor will I turn away from him. ⁶ I will offer my back to those who whip me. I will offer my cheeks to those who pluck hairs out of my beard. I will not turn my face away from those who humiliate me and spit on me. ⁷ The Lord Jehovah helps me. That is why I will not be ashamed. I have set my face like a flint (firm and resolute). I know that I will not be put to shame. ⁸ The one who pronounces me innocent is near. Who will bring a case against me? Let us confront each other! Who accuses me? Let him draw near to me! ⁹ The Lord Jehovah helps me. Who will find me guilty?

It’s because of your sins that you were sold, and because of your transgressions that your mother was sent away. ² Why is it that when I came, no one was there? Why was there no answer when I called? Was my arm too short to redeem you? Do I lack the strength to rescue you? Look! By my mere rebuke I dry up the sea, I turn rivers into a desert. Their fish stink for lack of water and die of thirst. ³ I clothe the skies with darkness and make sackcloth their covering.”
⁴ The Servant’s Obedience“The Lord GOD has given me a learned tongue, so that I may know how to sustain the weary with words. And morning after morning he wakens, and he wakens my ear to listen like those who are being taught. ⁵ My Lord GOD has opened my ears, and I did not rebel; I did not shrink back. ⁶ I gave my back to those who beat me and my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard. I did not turn away my face from insults and spitting. ⁷ For the Lord GOD helps me, so I won’t be disgraced. Therefore I’ve made my face like flint, and I know that I won’t be put to shame.”
⁸ The Servant’s VindicationThe one who vindicates me is near. Who, then, will bring a charge against me? Let’s face each other! Who has a case against me? Let him confront me! ⁹ See! It is the Lord GOD who will help me. Who is it that will declare me guilty? See!

I did not turn backwards; ⁶ I gave my back to those who struck me, and my cheeks to those who pulled out my _⌊beard_⌋;* I did not hide my face from insults and spittle. ⁷ And the Lord Yahweh helps me,
therefore I have not been put to shame; therefore I have set my face like flint. And I know that I shall not be ashamed; ⁸ he who obtains rights for me is near. Who will contend with me?

⁴ The lord Jehovah has given me the tongue of those who are taught, that I may know how to sustain with words he who is weary. He awakens morning by morning. He awakens my ear to hear as those who are taught. ⁵ The lord Jehovah has opened my ear and I was not rebellious, nor turned away backward. ⁶ I gave my back to the strikers and my cheeks to those who plucked off the hair. I did not hide my face from shame and spitting. ⁷ For the lord Jehovah will help me.
Therefore I have not been confounded. Therefore I have set my face like a flint and I know that I will not be put to shame. ⁸ He is near who justifies me. Who will contend with me? Let us stand up together. Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me. ⁹ Behold, the lord Jehovah will help me. Who is he who will condemn me? Behold, all they will grow old as a garment; the moth will eat them up.
¹⁰ Who is among you* that fears Jehovah, who obeys the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness and has no light, let him trust in the name of Jehovah and rely upon his God.
¹¹ Behold, all you* who kindle a fire, who gird yourselves about with firebrands, walk you* in the flame of your* fire and among the brands that you* have kindled. This you* will have from my hand. You* will lie down in sorrow.

VIN⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Thus said the LORD, Where this writing of cutting off of your mother which I sent her away? or which of my creditors whom I sold you to him? Behold, in your iniquities ye sold yourselves, and in your transgressions your mother was sent away. ² Wherefore, When I came in, was there no one? When I called, was there none to answer? Is mine own hand, really shortened, that it cannot redeem? Or is there not, in me, strength to deliver? Lo! by my rebuke, I dry up the sea I make rivers a desert, Their fish Stinketh, for want of water, Yea dieth, for thirst: ³ I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering." ⁴ The Sovereign LORD has given Me the tongue of the learned, to know to help the weary with a word. He wakens morning by morning, He wakens the ear to hear as the learned. ⁵ The Sovereign LORD has opened my ear. I was not rebellious. I have not turned back. ⁶ I gave my back to those who struck me, and my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from insults and spittle. ⁷ For the Sovereign LORD will help me. Therefore I have not been confounded. Therefore I have set my face like a flint and I know that I will not be put to shame. ⁸ He who justifies me is near. Who will bring charges against me? Let us stand up together. Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me. ⁹ Behold, the Sovereign LORD will help Me; who is he who shall condemn Me? Lo, they all shall wear out like a garment; the moth shall eat them. ¹⁰ Who among you fears the LORD, who obeys the voice of His servant, who walks in darkness and has no light? Let him trust in the name of the LORD and rest on his God. ¹¹ But all of you light fires and arm yourselves with flaming torches. So walk in your own light and among the torches you have lit. This is what you will receive from me: You will be tormented.

Luther1545⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ So spricht der HERR: Wo ist der Scheidebrief eurer Mutter, damit ich sie gelassen habe? Oder wer ist mein Wucherer, dem ich euch verkauft habe? Siehe, ihr seid um eurer Sünden willen verkauft, und eure Mutter ist um eures Übertretens willen gelassen. ² Warum kam ich, und war niemand da; ich rief, und niemand antwortete? Ist meine Hand nun so kurz worden, daß sie nicht erlösen kann, oder ist bei mir keine Kraft zu erretten? Siehe, mit meinem Schelten mache ich das Meer trocken und mache die Wasserströme als eine Wüste, daß ihre Fische vor Wassermangel stinken und Durst sterben. ³ Ich kleide den Himmel mit Dunkel und mache seine Decke als einen Sack. ⁴ Der HERR HERR hat mir eine gelehrte Zunge gegeben, daß ich wisse, mit dem Müden zu rechter Zeit zu reden. Er wecket mich alle Morgen; er wecket mir das Ohr, daß ich höre wie ein Jünger. ⁵ Der HERR HERR hat mir das Ohr geöffnet; und ich bin nicht ungehorsam und gehe nicht zurück. ⁶ Ich hielt meinen Rücken dar denen, die mich schlugen, und meine Wangen denen, die mich rauften; mein Angesicht verbarg ich nicht vor Schmach und Speichel. ⁷ Denn der HERR HERR hilft mir, darum werde ich nicht zuschanden. Darum habe ich mein Angesicht dargeboten als einen Kieselstein; denn ich weiß, daß ich nicht zuschanden werde. ⁸ Er ist nahe, der mich rechtspricht; wer will mit mir hadern? Laßt uns zusammentreten; wer ist, der Recht zu mir hat? Der komme her zu mir! ⁹ Siehe, der HERR HERR hilft mir; wer ist, der mich will verdammen? Siehe, sie werden allzumal wie ein Kleid veralten, Motten werden sie fressen. ¹⁰ Wer ist unter euch, der den HERRN fürchtet, der seines Knechts Stimme gehorche, der im Finstern wandelt und scheinet ihm nicht? Der hoffe auf den Namen des HERRN und verlasse sich auf seinen Gott. ¹¹ Siehe, ihr alle, die ihr ein Feuer anzündet, mit Flammen gerüstet: wandelt hin im Lichte eures Feuers und in Flammen, die ihr angezündet habt. Solches widerfähret euch von meiner Hand; in Schmerzen müsset ihr liegen.

Giguet⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ¶ Ainsi dit le Seigneur: Quel est cet écrit de divorce par lequel j’ai répudié votre mère? Pour quelle dette vous ai-je vendus? Vous avez été vendus pour vos péchés, et j’ai répudié votre mère pour vos déréglements. ² Pourquoi suis-je venu, sans trouver un homme? pourquoi ai-je appelé, sans que nul m’obéît? Ma main n’est-elle pas assez forte pour racheter? Ne suis-je point assez fort pour délivrer? Voilà que d’un mot de menace je tarirai la mer, je rendrai les fleuves déserts, et les poissons, faute d’eau, seront à sec, et ils mourront de soif. ³ Je revêtirai le ciel de ténèbres, et je lui mettrai une couverture comme un cilice. ⁴ ¶ Le Seigneur Maître m’a donné le langage de la doctrine, pour savoir quand il est à propos de parler. Il m’a mis à l’oeuvre dès l’aurore; il m’a accordé une oreille pour entendre. ⁵ Et l’enseignement du Seigneur Maître m’a ouvert les oreilles; et je n’y ai pas été indocile, et je n’y ai point contredit. ⁶ J’ai abandonné mon dos aux flagellations, et mes joues aux soufflets, et je n’ai point détourné mon visage de l’humiliation des crachats. ⁷ Et le Seigneur Maître m’a prêté son secours; aussi n’ai-je point eu de confusion; mais j’ai rendu mon visage aussi ferme qu’un rocher, et j’ai reconnu que je n’aurais point à rougir. ⁸ Car celui qui m’a jugé innocent est proche; quel est mon adversaire? qu’il comparaisse avec moi; quel est mon adversaire? qu’il s’approche de moi. ⁹ Et si le Seigneur Maître vient à mon secours, qui me maltraitera? Voilà que vous allez tous vieillir comme un manteau, et les vers vous dévoreront. ¹⁰ ¶ Qui de vous craint le Seigneur? Que celui-là écoute la voix du serviteur de Dieu. Vous qui marchez dans les ténèbres, et qui n’avez point de lumière, mettez votre confiance dans le nom du Seigneur, et appuyez-vous sur Dieu. ¹¹ Voilà que vous allumez tous du feu, que vous activez la flamme; vous marcherez à la lumière de votre feu, à la flamme que vous avez allumée; c’est par moi que tout cela vous arrivera, et vous vous endormirez dans votre malheur.

Ainsi dit l'Éternel: Où est la lettre de divorce de votre mère que j'ai renvoyée? Ou, qui est celui de mes créanciers auquel je vous ai vendus? Voici, vous vous êtes vendus par vos iniquités, et à cause de vos transgressions votre mère a été renvoyée. ² Pourquoi suis-je venu, et il n'y a eu personne? Pourquoi ai-je appelé, et il n'y a eu personne qui répondît? Ma main est-elle devenue trop courte pour que je puisse racheter, et n'y a-t-il pas de force en moi pour délivrer? Voici, par ma réprimande je dessèche la mer, je fais des rivières un désert; leurs poissons deviennent puants, faute d'eau, et meurent de soif. ³ Je revêts les cieux de noirceur, et je leur donne un sac pour couverture. ⁴
Le Seigneur l'Éternel m'a donné la langue des savants, pour que je sache soutenir par une parole celui qui est las. Il me réveille chaque matin, il réveille mon oreille pour que j'écoute comme ceux qu'on enseigne. ⁵ Le Seigneur l'Éternel m'a ouvert l'oreille, et moi je n'ai pas été rebelle, je ne me suis pas retiré en arrière. ⁶ J'ai donné mon dos à ceux qui frappaient, et mes joues à ceux qui arrachaient le poil; je n'ai pas caché ma face à l'opprobre et aux crachats. ⁷ Mais le Seigneur l'Éternel m'aidera: c'est pourquoi je ne serai pas confondu; c'est pourquoi j'ai dressé ma face comme un caillou, et je sais que je ne serai pas confus. ⁸ Celui qui me justifie est proche: qui contestera avec moi? -tenons-nous là ensemble. Qui plaidera contre moi en jugement? -qu'il s'approche de moi! ⁹ Voici, le Seigneur l'Éternel m'aidera: qui me condamnera? Voici, ils vieilliront tous comme un vêtement, la teigne les dévorera. ¹⁰
Qui d'entre vous craint l'Éternel, qui entend la voix de son serviteur, quiconque marche dans les ténèbres et n'a pas de lumière, qu'il se confie dans le nom de l'Éternel et s'appuie sur son Dieu. ¹¹ Voici, vous tous qui allumez un feu, qui vous entourez d'étincelles, marchez à la lumière de votre feu et des étincelles que vous avez allumées; c'est ici ce que vous aurez de ma main: vous coucherez dans la douleur.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Ainsi a dit l'Eternel; où sont les lettres de divorce de votre mère que j'ai renvoyée ? ou qui est celui de mes créanciers à qui je vous aie vendus ? voilà, vous avez été vendus pour vos iniquités, et votre mère a été renvoyée pour vos forfaits. ² Pourquoi suis-je venu, et il ne s'est trouvé personne ? j'ai crié, et il n'y a personne qui ait répondu. Ma main est-elle en quelque sorte raccourcie, tellement que je ne puisse pas racheter ? ou n'y a-t-il plus de force en moi pour délivrer ? Voici, je fais tarir la mer, quand je la tance; je réduis les fleuves en désert, tellement que leur poisson devient puant, étant mort de soif, parce qu'il n'y a point d'eau. ³ Je revêts les cieux de noirceur, et je mets un sac pour leur couverture. ⁴ Le Seigneur l'Eternel m'a donné la langue des savants, pour savoir assaisonner la parole à celui qui est accablé de maux; chaque matin il me réveille soigneusement afin que je prête l'oreille aux discours des sages. ⁵ Le Seigneur l'Eternel, m'a ouvert l'oreille, et je n'ai point été rebelle, et ne me suis point retiré en arrière. ⁶ J'ai exposé mon dos à ceux qui me frappaient, et mes joues à ceux qui me tiraient le poil, je n'ai point caché mon visage en arrière des opprobres, ni des crachats. ⁷ Mais le Seigneur l'Eternel m'a aidé, c'est pourquoi je n'ai point été confus; et ainsi, j'ai rendu mon visage semblable à un caillou; car je sais que je ne serai point rendu honteux. ⁸ Celui qui me justifie est près; qui est-ce qui plaidera contre moi ? comparaissons ensemble; qui est-ce qui est mon adverse partie ? qu'il approche de moi. ⁹ Voilà, le Seigneur, l'Eternel m'aidera, qui sera-ce qui me condamnera ? voilà, eux tous seront usés comme un vêtement, la teigne les rongera. ¹⁰ Qui est celui d'entre vous qui craigne l'Eternel, et qui écoute la voix de son serviteur ? Que celui qui a marché dans les ténèbres, et qui n'avait point de clarté, ait confiance au Nom de l'Eternel, et qu'il s'appuie sur son Dieu. ¹¹ Voilà, vous tous qui allumez le feu, et qui vous ceignez d'étincelles, marchez à la lueur de votre feu, et dans les étincelles que vous avez embrasées; ceci vous a été fait de ma main, vous serez gisants dans les tourments.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Ainsi parle l'Eternel: Où est la lettre de divorce par laquelle j'ai répudié votre mère? Ou bien, auquel de mes créanciers vous ai-je vendus? Voici, c'est à cause de vos iniquités que vous avez été vendus, Et c'est à cause de vos péchés que votre mère a été répudiée. ² Je suis venu: pourquoi n'y avait-il personne? J'ai appelé: pourquoi personne n'a-t-il répondu? Ma main est-elle trop courte pour racheter? N'ai-je pas assez de force pour délivrer? Par ma menace, je dessèche la mer, Je réduis les fleuves en désert; Leurs poissons se corrompent, faute d'eau, Et ils périssent de soif. ³ Je revêts les cieux d'obscurité, Et je fais d'un sac leur couverture. ⁴ Le Seigneur, l'Eternel, m'a donné une langue exercée, Pour que je sache soutenir par la parole celui qui est abattu; Il éveille, chaque matin, il éveille mon oreille, Pour que j'écoute comme écoutent des disciples. ⁵ Le Seigneur, l'Eternel, m'a ouvert l'oreille, Et je n'ai point résisté, Je ne me suis point retiré en arrière. ⁶ J'ai livré mon dos à ceux qui me frappaient, Et mes joues à ceux qui m'arrachaient la barbe; Je n'ai pas dérobé mon visage Aux ignominies et aux crachats. ⁷ Mais le Seigneur, l'Eternel, m'a secouru; C'est pourquoi je n'ai point été déshonoré, C'est pourquoi j'ai rendu mon visage semblable à un caillou, Sachant que je ne serais point confondu. ⁸ Celui qui me justifie est proche: Qui disputera contre moi? Comparaissons ensemble! Qui est mon adversaire? Qu'il s'avance vers moi! ⁹ Voici, le Seigneur, l'Eternel, me secourra: Qui me condamnera? Voici, ils tomberont tous en lambeaux comme un vêtement, La teigne les dévorera. ¹⁰ Quiconque parmi vous craint l'Eternel, Qu'il écoute la voix de son serviteur! Quiconque marche dans l'obscurité et manque de lumière, Qu'il se confie dans le nom de l'Eternel, Et qu'il s'appuie sur son Dieu! ¹¹ Voici, vous tous qui allumez un feu, Et qui êtes armés de torches, Allez au milieu de votre feu et de vos torches enflammées! C'est par ma main que ces choses vous arriveront; Vous vous coucherez dans la douleur.

Ja, ju jeni shitur për shkak të paudhësive tuaja dhe nënën tuaj është ndarë për shkak të shkeljeve tuaja. ² Kur erdha, pse s'kishte njeri? Pse, kur thirra, askush nuk u përgjigj?

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Так говорит Господь: где разводное письмо вашей матери, с которым Я отпустил ее? или которому из Моих заимодавцев Я продал вас? Вот, вы проданы за грехи ваши, и за преступления ваши отпущена мать ваша. ² Почему, когда Я приходил, никого не было, и когда Я звал, никто не отвечал? Разве рука Моя коротка стала для того, чтобы избавлять, или нет силы во Мне, чтобы спасать? Вот, прещением Моим Я иссушаю море, превращаю реки в пустыню; рыбы в них гниют от недостатка воды и умирают от жажды. ³ Я облекаю небеса мраком, и вретище делаю покровом их. ⁴ Господь Бог дал Мне язык мудрых, чтобы Я мог словом подкреплять изнемогающего; каждое утро Он пробуждает, пробуждает ухо Мое, чтобы Я слушал, подобно учащимся. ⁵ Господь Бог открыл Мне ухо, и Я не воспротивился, не отступил назад. ⁶ Я предал хребет Мой биющим и ланиты Мои поражающим; лица Моего не закрывал от поруганий и оплевания. ⁷ И Господь Бог помогает Мне: поэтому Я не стыжусь, поэтому Я держулице Мое, как кремень, и знаю, что не останусь в стыде. ⁸ Близок оправдывающий Меня: кто хочет состязаться соМною? станем вместе. Кто хочет судиться со Мною? пусть подойдет ко Мне. ⁹ Вот, Господь Бог помогает Мне: кто осудит Меня? Вот, все они, как одежда, обветшают; моль съест их. ¹⁰ Кто из вас боится Господа, слушается гласа Раба Его?

Скъсила ли се е някак ръката Ми да не може да изкупва? Или нямам сила да избавям? Ето, със смъмрянето Си изсушавам морето, обръщам реките в пустиня, рибите им се вмирисват от липса на вода, умират от жажда. ³ Аз обличам небесата с мрак и слагам вретище за тяхно покривало. ⁴ Господ БОГ ми даде език на учениците — да зная как да помогна с дума на уморения. Събужда, всяка сутрин събужда ухото ми, за да слушам като учениците. ⁵ Господ БОГ ми отвори ухото и аз не се разбунтувах и не се обърнах назад. ⁶ Гърба си дадох на биячите и бузите си — на скубачите, не скрих лицето си от опозоряване и заплюване. ⁷ Понеже Господ БОГ ще ми помогне, затова не съм опозорен, затова направих лицето си като кремък и зная, че няма да бъда посрамен. ⁸ Близо е Този, който ме оправдава — кой ще се съди с мен? Нека застанем заедно. Кой иска да се съди с мен? Нека се приближи до мен. ⁹ Ето, Господ БОГ ще ми помогне — кой ще ме осъди? Ето, те всички ще се разпаднат като дреха, ще ги прояде молец. ¹⁰ Кой между вас се бои от ГОСПОДА и слуша гласа на Неговия служител? Който ходи в тъмнина и няма за него светлина, нека се уповава на Името на ГОСПОДА и нека се обляга на своя Бог. ¹¹ Ето, всички вие, които запалвате огън и се обграждате с главни, ходете в пламъка на огъня си и сред главните, които сте разпалили! Това ще ви бъде от ръката Ми — ще легнете в място на скръб.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Ovako govori Jahve: "Gdje je otpusno pismo vaše matere kojim sam je otpustio? Ili tko je od mojih vjerovnika taj komu sam vas prodao? Zbog bezakonja ste svojih prodani, zbog nevjere je mati vaša otpuštena. ² Zašto ne nađoh nikoga kad sam došao? Zašto se ne odazva nitko kad sam zazvao? Zar mi je ruka prekratka da izbavi, ili u meni snage nema da oslobodim? Gle, prijetnjom svojom isušujem more, u pustinje rijeke pretvaram; njihove se ribe raspadaju jer vode nema i od žeđi ugibaju. ³ Nebesa oblačim u tminu i kostrijet im dajem za pokrivač!" ⁴ Gospod Jahve dade mi jezik vješt da znam riječju krijepiti umorne. Svako jutro on mi uho budi da ga slušam kao učenici. ⁵ Gospod Jahve uši mi otvori: ne protivih se niti uzmicah. ⁶ Leđa podmetnuh onima što me udarahu, a obraze onima što mi bradu čupahu, i lica svojeg ne zaklonih od uvreda ni od pljuvanja. ⁷ Gospod mi Jahve pomaže, zato se neću smesti. Zato učinih svoj obraz k'o kremen i znam da se neću postidjeti. ⁸ Blizu je onaj koji mi pravo daje. Tko će se pravdati sa mnom? Iziđimo zajedno! Tko je protivnik moj u parnici? Nek' mi se približi! ⁹ Gle, Gospod mi Jahve pomaže, tko će me osuditi? Svi će se oni k'o haljina izlizati, moljac će ih razjesti. ¹⁰ "Tko god se od vas Jahve boji, nek' posluša glas Sluge njegova! Tko u tmini hodi, bez tračka svjetlosti, nek' se uzda u ime Jahvino, nek' se na Boga svog osloni. ¹¹ Ali svi vi oganj palite, raspirujete žeravicu. Idite u plamenove ognja svojega i u žeravu koju raspiriste. Tako će vam moja učiniti ruka: ležat ćete u mukama.

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Takto praví Hospodin: Kdež jest lístek zapuzení matky vaší, kterýmž jsem ji propustil? Aneb kdo jest z věřitelů mých, jemuž jsem vás prodal? Aj, nepravostmi svými prodali jste sebe, a pro převrácenosti vaše propuštěna jest matka vaše. ² Proč, když přicházím, není žádného, když volám, žádný se neozývá? Zdaliž jest naprosto ukrácena ruka má, aby nemohla vykoupiti? A žádné-liž není ve mně moci k vysvobození? Aj, žehráním svým vysušuji moře, obracím řeky v poušť, až se smrazují ryby jejich, proto že nebývá vody, a mrou žízní. ³ Obláčím nebesa v smutek, a žíni dávám jim za oděv. ⁴ Panovník Hospodin dal mi jazyk umělý, abych uměl příhodně ustalému mluviti slova. Probuzuje každého jitra, probuzuje mi uši, abych slyšel, tak jako pilně se učící. ⁵ Panovník Hospodin otvírá mi uši, a já se nepostavuji zpurně, aniž se nazpět odvracím. ⁶ Těla svého nastavuji bijícím, a líce svého rvoucím mne, tváři své neskrývám od pohanění a plvání. ⁷ Nebo Panovník Hospodin spomáhá mi, pročež nebývám zahanben. Pro touž příčinu nastavuji tváři své jako škřemene; nebo vím, že nebudu zahanben. ⁸ Blízkoť jest ten, kterýž mne ospravedlňuje. Kdož se nesnadniti bude se mnou? Postavme se spolu; kdo jest odpůrce můj, nechť přistoupí ke mně. ⁹ Aj, Panovník Hospodin spomáhati mi bude. Kdož jest, ješto by mne potupil? Aj, všickni takoví jako roucho zvetšejí, mol sžíře je. ¹⁰ Kdo jest mezi vámi, ješto se bojí Hospodina, poslouchej hlasu služebníka jeho. Kdo jest, ješto chodí v temnostech, a nemá žádného světla, doufej ve jméno Hospodinovo, a zpolehni na Boha svého. ¹¹ Aj, vy všickni, kteříž zaněcujete oheň, a jiskrami se přepasujete, choďtež v blesku ohně svého, a v jiskrách, kteréž jste roznítili. Od ruky mé toto se vám stane, že v bolesti ležeti budete.

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Saa siger HERREN: Hvor er eders Moders Skilsmissebrev, ved hvilket jeg skulde have forskudt hende? eller hvem var jeg en Skyldner, at jeg skulde have solgt eder til ham? se, I ere solgte for eders Misgerningers Skyld, og eders Moder er forskudt for eders Overtrædelsers Skyld. ² Hvorfor er der ingen, naar jeg kommer? hvorfor svarer ingen, naar jeg kalder? er min Haand saa forkortet, at den ikke kan forløse? eller er der ingen Kraft hos mig til at redde? se, jeg udtørrer Havet ved min Trilsel, jeg gør Floder til Ørk, at deres Fisk stinke, fordi der ikke er Vand, og dø af Tørst. ³ Jeg klæder Hilnmelen i sort og indhyller den i Sørgedragt. ⁴ Den Herre, HERRE har givet mig de udlærtes Tunge, at jeg ved at kvæge den mødige med et Ord; han vækkeI hver Morgen, ja, vækker mit Øre til at høre som de, der ere udlærte. ⁵ Den Herre, HERRE har aabnet nlig Øret, og jeg var ikke genstridig; jeg veg ikke tilbage. ⁶ Jeg hengav min Ryg til dem som sloge mig, og mine Kinder til dem, som rykkede mig i Skægget; jeg skjulte ikke mit Ansigt for Forsmædelser og Spyt. ⁷ Men den Herre HERRE skal hjælpe mig, derfor bliver jeg ikke beskæmmet, derfor gjorde jeg mit Ansigt som en haard Sten, og jeg ved, at jeg ikke bliver til Skamme. ⁸ Han er nær, som mig retfærdiggør; hvo vil trætte med mig? lader os træde frem med hinanden; hvo er den, som har Sag imod mig? han komme hid til mig! ⁹ Se, den Herre, HERRE skal hjælpe mig; hvo er den, som mig kan fordømme? se, de skulle alle ældes som et Klæde, Møl skal fortære dem. ¹⁰ Hvo er iblandt eder, som frygter HERREN, og som adlyder halls Tjeners Røst? naar han vandrer i Mørke og har ikke Lysets Skin, skal han forlade sig paa HERRENS Navn, ja stole fast paa sin Gud. ¹¹ Se, alle I, som optænde en Ild og omgive eder med Blus, vandrer I kun ved eders Ilds Lys og ved de Blus, som I have tændt! Fra min Haand skal dette ske eder, i Smerte skulde I ligge.

CUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ 耶和華如此說：我休你們的母親，休書在那裡呢？我將你們賣給我哪一個債主呢？你們被賣，是因你們的罪孽；你們的母親被休，是因你們的過犯。 ² 我來的時候，為何無人等候呢？我呼喚的時候，為何無人答應呢？我的膀臂豈是縮短、不能救贖嗎？我豈無拯救之力麼？看哪，我一斥責，海就乾了；我使江河變為曠野；其中的魚因無水腥臭，乾渴而死。 ³ 我使諸天以黑暗為衣服，以麻布為遮蓋。 ⁴ 主耶和華賜我受教者的舌頭，使我知道怎樣用言語扶助疲乏的人。主每早晨提醒，提醒我的耳朵，使我能聽，像受教者一樣。 ⁵ 主耶和華開通我的耳朵；我並沒有違背，也沒有退後。 ⁶ 人打我的背，我任他打；人拔我腮頰的鬍鬚，我由他拔；人辱我，吐我，我並不掩面。 ⁷ 主耶和華必幫助我，所以我不抱愧。我硬著臉面好像堅石；我也知道我必不至蒙羞。 ⁸ 稱我為義的與我相近；誰與我爭論，可以與我一同站立；誰與我作對，可以就近我來。 ⁹ 主耶和華要幫助我；誰能定我有罪呢？他們都像衣服漸漸舊了，為蛀蟲所咬。 ¹⁰ 你們中間誰是敬畏耶和華、聽從他僕人之話的？這人行在暗中，沒有亮光。當倚靠耶和華的名，仗賴自己的神。 ¹¹ 凡你們點火，用火把圍繞自己的可以行在你們的火焰裡，並你們所點的火把中。這是我手所定的；你們必躺在悲慘之中，

Jen pro viaj pekoj vi estas venditaj, kaj pro viaj krimoj estas forpusxita via patrino. ² Kial neniu estis, kiam Mi venis? kial neniu respondis, kiam Mi vokis? CXu Mia mano farigxis tro mallonga, por liberigi? kaj cxu ne ekzistas en Mi forto, por savi? Jen per Mia severa vorto Mi sekigas maron, Mi faras el riveroj dezerton; iliaj fisxoj putras pro senakveco kaj mortas de soifo. ³ Mi vestas la cxielon per mallumo, kaj sakajxon Mi faras gxia kovrilo. ⁴ La Sinjoro, la Eternulo, donis al mi langon instruitan, por ke mi povosciu vigligi per vorto senfortigiton; Li vekas, cxiumatene vekas mian orelon, por ke mi auxskultu kiel instruatoj. ⁵ La Sinjoro, la Eternulo, malfermis mian orelon, kaj mi ne kontrauxstaris, mi ne turnis min malantauxen. ⁶ Mian dorson mi elmetis al la batantoj kaj miajn vangojn al la harsxirantoj; mian vizagxon mi ne kovris kontraux insultoj kaj kracxado. ⁷ Sed la Sinjoro, la Eternulo, helpas al mi, tial mi ne estas hontigata; tial mi faris mian vizagxon kiel siliko, kaj mi scias, ke mi ne estos senhonorigata. ⁸ Proksima estas mia praviganto; kiu procesos kontraux mi? ni starigxu kune; kiu postulas jugxon kontraux mi, li alproksimigxu al mi. ⁹ Jen la Sinjoro, la Eternulo, helpas al mi; kiu do malpravigos min? jen ili cxiuj elfrotigxos kiel vesto, tineoj ilin tramangxos. ¹⁰ Kiu inter vi timas la Eternulon, auxskultas la vocxon de Lia servanto?

Finnish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Näin sanoo Herra: kussa on äitinne erokirja, jolla minä olen hänen hyljännyt? eli kuka on minun korkorahani kantaja, jolle minä teidät olen myynyt? Katso, te olette synteinne tähden myydyt, ja äitinne on teidän rikostenne tähden hyljätty. ² Miksi minä tulin, ja ei ollut siellä ketään? Minä huusin, ja ei yksikään vastannut? onko minun käteni niin peräti lyhentynyt, ettei hän voi pelastaa? ja eikö minulla ole voimaa vapahtaa? Katso, nuhtelemisellani teen minä meren kuivaksi, ja teen virrat korveksi, niin että kalat haisevat veden puuttumisen tähden ja kuolevat janosta. ³ Minä puetan taivaan pimeydellä, ja teen hänen peitteensä niinkuin säkin. ⁴ Herra, Herra antoi minulle oppineen kielen, taitaakseni puhua väsyneille ajallansa. Hän herättää minun joka aamu, hän herättää minulle korvan kuulemaan niinkuin opetuslapsen. ⁵ Herra, Herra avasi minulle korvan, ja en ole minä tottelematoin, enkä mene takaperin. ⁶ Minä annoin selkäni niille, jotka minua pieksivät, ja poskeni niille, jotka minua repelivät; en minä kääntänyt kasvojani pois häväistyksistä ja syljestä. ⁷ Ja Herra, Herra minua auttaa, sentähden en minä tule häpiään; sentähden panin minä kasvoni niinkuin limsiön, sillä minä tiedän, etten minä tule häpiään. ⁸ Se on läsnä, joka minun vanhurskauttaa; kuka tahtoo riidellä minun kanssani? Seisokaamme ynnä; kellä on oikeus minua vastaan, se tulkoon tänne minun tyköni. ⁹ Katso, Herra, Herra auttaa minua, kuka tahtoo minua kadottaa? Katso, ne kaikki vanhenevat niinkuin vaate, koit syövät heidät. ¹⁰ Kuka on teidän seassanne, joka pelkää Herraa, joka hänen palveliansa ääntä kuultelee. Joka pimeydessä vaeltaa, ja ei näe valkeutta, se toivokaan Herran nimen päälle, ja luottakaan Jumalansa päälle. ¹¹ Katso, te kaikki, jotka tulen sytytätte, jotka olette liekillä hankitut, vaeltakaat teidän tulenne valkeudessa, ja siinä liekissä, jonka te sytytitte. Se tapahtuu teille minun kädestäni; kivussa täytyy teidän levätä.

FinnishPR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Näin sanoo Herra: Missä on teidän äitinne erokirja, jolla olisin lähettänyt hänet pois? Tai kuka on minun velkojani, jolle minä olisin teidät myynyt? Katso, pahojen tekojenne tähden te olette myydyt, teidän rikkomustenne tähden on äitinne lähetetty pois. ² Miksi ei ollut ketään, kun minä tulin, miksi ei kukaan vastannut, kun minä huusin? Onko minun käteni liian lyhyt vapahtamaan, olenko minä voimaton auttamaan? Katso, nuhtelullani minä kuivaan meren, minä teen virrat erämaaksi, niin että niitten kalat mätänevät, kun ei ole vettä; ne kuolevat janoon. ³ Minä puetan taivaat mustiin ja panen murhepuvun niitten verhoksi. ⁴ Herra, Herra on minulle antanut opetuslasten kielen, niin että minä taidan sanalla virvoittaa väsynyttä; hän herättää aamu aamulta, herättää minun korvani kuulemaan opetuslasten tavalla. ⁵ Herra, Herra on avannut minun korvani; minä en ole niskoitellut, en vetäytynyt pois. ⁶ Selkäni minä annoin lyötäväksi, poskieni parran revittäväksi, en peittänyt kasvojani pilkalta ja syljeltä. ⁷ Herra, Herra auttaa minua; sentähden ei minuun pilkka koskenut, sentähden tein kasvoni koviksi kuin piikivi, sillä minä tiedän, etten häpeään joudu. ⁸ Lähellä on hän, joka minut vanhurskaaksi tuomitsee. Kuka voi minun kanssani riidellä? Astukaamme yhdessä esiin! Kuka on minun vastapuoleni? Tulkoon tänne lähelleni! ⁹ Katso, Herra, Herra auttaa minua; kuka minut syylliseksi tuomitsee? Katso, kaikki he hajoavat kuin vaate; koi heidät syö. ¹⁰ Kuka teistä pelkää Herraa ja kuulee hänen palvelijansa ääntä? Joka vaeltaa pimeydessä ja valoa vailla, se luottakoon Herran nimeen ja turvautukoon Jumalaansa. ¹¹ Mutta katso, te kaikki, jotka palon sytytätte, te palavilla nuolilla varustetut, suistukaa oman tulenne liekkeihin, niihin palaviin nuoliin, jotka olette sytyttäneet. Minun kädestäni tämä teille tulee; vaivassa täytyy teidän asua.

Se pou nou met konfyans nou nan Seyè a. Apiye sou Bondye nou an! ¹¹ Men nou tout k'ap pouse dife, k'ap fè plan pou detwi lòt moun, se nou menm ki pral boule nan dife nou limen an, se nou menm ki pral pran nan plan n'ap fè yo. Se Seyè a menm ki pral fè sa rive nou: Nou pral tòde ak doulè nan kabann nou.

Ímé, a ti vétkeitekért adattatok el, és bûneitekért bocsáttatott el anyátok! ² Miért jöttem, holott nem volt [ott] senki? hívtam és nem felelt senki sem! vagy olyan rövid már a kezem, hogy meg nem válthat? vagy nincs bennem megszabadításra való erõ? Ímé, én dorgálásommal kiszáraztom a tengert, a folyókat pusztává teszem, megbûzhödnek halaik, hogy nincsen víz, és szomjúságtól meghalnak. ³ Felöltöztetem az egeket sötétségbe, és gyászruhával födöm be azokat. ⁴ Az Úr Isten bölcs nyelvet adott én nékem, hogy tudjam erõsítni a megfáradtat beszéddel, fölserkenti minden reggel, fölserkenti fülemet, hogy hallgassak, miként a tanítványok. ⁵ Az Úr Isten megnyitotta fülemet, és én nem voltam engedetlen, hátra nem fordultam. ⁶ Hátamat odaadám a verõknek, és orczámat a szaggatóknak, képemet nem födöztem be a gyalázás és köpdösés elõtt. ⁷ És az Úr Isten megsegít engemet, azért nem szégyenülök meg, ezért olyanná tettem képemet, mint a kova, és tudtam, hogy szégyent nem vallok. ⁸ Közel van, a ki engem megigazít, ki perel én velem? Álljunk együtt elõ! Kicsoda peresem? közelegjen hozzám! ⁹ Ímé, az Úr Isten megsegít engem, kicsoda kárhoztatna engem? Ímé, mindnyájan, mint a ruha megavulnak, moly emészti meg õket! ¹⁰ Ki féli közületek az Urat? és ki hallgat az õ szolgája szavára? õ, a ki sötétségben jár és nincs fényesség néki, bízzék az Úr nevében, és támaszkodjék Istenhez! ¹¹ Ímé, ti mind, a kik tüzet gyujtotok, felövezvén magatokat tüzes nyilakkal, vettessetek tüzeteknek lángjába és a tüzes nyilakba, a melyeket meggyújtottatok! Kezembõl jõ ez rátok; fájdalomban fogtok feküdni!

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ TUHAN berkata kepada Israel, "Hai umat-Ku, sangkamu Aku mengusir engkau seperti seorang suami mengusir istrinya? Kalau begitu, di mana surat cerainya? Sangkamu Aku menjual engkau, seperti seorang bapak menjual anaknya kepada penagih hutang? Bukan! Engkau ditawan dan dibuang, karena dosa dan kejahatanmu sendiri! ² Mengapa dari umat-Ku tak seorang pun menjawab, waktu Aku datang memanggil mereka? Apakah mereka diam saja karena menyangka Aku tak mampu membebaskan dan menyelamatkan mereka? Sesungguhnya, atas perintah-Ku laut menjadi kering, sungai-sungai Kujadikan padang gurun, sehingga ikan-ikan mati dan berbau amis. ³ Langit Kujadikan hitam kelam, Aku menutupinya seperti dengan kain kabung." ⁴ TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi mengajar aku berbicara, supaya perkataanku menguatkan orang yang lesu. Setiap pagi Ia membangkitkan hasratku untuk mendengarkan ajaran-Nya bagiku. ⁵ TUHAN memberi aku pengertian; aku tidak berontak atau berbalik daripada-Nya. ⁶ Kuberi punggungku kepada orang yang memukul aku; dan pipiku kepada orang yang mencabut jenggotku. Aku tidak memalingkan mukaku waktu aku dihina dan diludahi. ⁷ Sebab TUHAN Allah menolong aku, maka aku tidak dipermalukan. Aku menguatkan hatiku supaya tabah; aku tahu aku tak akan dipermalukan. ⁸ Sebab Allah dekat, Ia menyatakan aku tidak bersalah. Siapa mau berbantah dengan aku? Mari kita tampil bersama-sama. Siapakah yang melawan aku? Suruhlah ia mendekat padaku. ⁹ Sungguh, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi membela aku, siapa berani menyatakan aku bersalah? Semua yang menuduh aku akan lenyap seperti kain usang dimakan ngengat. ¹⁰ Hai kamu yang menghormati TUHAN, dan mendengarkan perkataan hamba-Nya, jalan yang kamu tempuh mungkin gelap, dan tak ada cahaya yang bersinar bagimu; tetapi percayalah pada TUHAN; bertopanglah pada Allahmu. ¹¹ Hai kamu yang mau mencelakakan orang lain, kamu akan dibinasakan oleh rencanamu sendiri. Tuhanlah yang membuat itu terjadi, kamu akan disiksa dengan hebat.

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Così ha detto il Signore: Dove è la lettera del divorzio di vostra madre, per la quale io l’abbia mandata via? ovvero, chi è colui de’ miei creditori, a cui io vi abbia venduti? Ecco, voi siete stati venduti per le vostre iniquità, e la madre vostra è stata mandata via per li vostri misfatti. ² Perchè, essendo io venuto, non si è trovato alcuno? Ed avendo io chiamato, niuno ha risposto? È forse la mia mano per alcuna maniera accorciata, da non poter riscuotere? O non vi è egli in me forza alcuna, da poter liberare? Ecco, col mio sgridare io secco il mare, io riduco i fiumi in deserto, sì che il pesce loro diventa puzzolente, per mancamento di acqua, essendo morto di sete. ³ Io rivesto i cieli di caligine, e metto un cilicio per lor coverta. ⁴ IL Signore Iddio mi ha data la lingua de’ dotti, per saper parlare opportunamente allo stanco; egli mi desta ogni mattina l’orecchio, per udire come i dotti. ⁵ Il Signore Iddio mi ha aperto l’orecchio, ed io non sono stato ribello, non mi son tratto indietro. ⁶ Io ho porto il mio corpo a’ percotitori, e le mie guance a quelli che mi strappavano i capelli; io non ho nascosta la mia faccia dalle onte, nè dallo sputo. ⁷ Ma il Signore Iddio è stato in mio aiuto; perciò, non sono stato confuso; perciò, ho resa la mia faccia simile ad un macigno, e so che non sarò svergognato. ⁸ Colui che mi giustifica è prossimo; chi contenderà meco? presentiamoci pure amendue insieme; chi è mio avversario? accostisi pure a me. ⁹ Ecco, il Signore Iddio è in mio aiuto; chi mi condannerà? ecco, tutti coloro saran logorati come un vestimento; la tignuola li roderà. ¹⁰ Chi è colui, d’infra voi, che tema il Signore, che ascolti la voce del suo Servitore? Benchè cammini in tenebre, e non abbia chiarezza alcuna, pur confidisi nel Nome del Signore, ed appoggisi sopra l’Iddio suo. ¹¹ (H50-10) Ecco, voi tutti che accendete del fuoco, e vi attorniate di faville, camminate alla luce del vostro fuoco, ed alle faville che avete accese. Questo vi è avvenuto dalla mia mano; voi giacerete in tormento.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Così parla l’Eterno: Dov’è la lettera di divorzio di vostra madre per la quale io l’ho ripudiata? O qual è quello de’ miei creditori al quale io vi ho venduto? Ecco, per le vostre iniquità siete stati venduti, e per le vostre trasgressioni vostra madre è stata ripudiata. ² Perché, quand’io son venuto, non s’è trovato alcuno? Perché, quand’ho chiamato, nessuno ha risposto? La mia mano è ella davvero troppo corta per redimere? o no ho io forza da liberare? Ecco, con la mia minaccia io prosciugo il mare, riduco i fiumi in deserto; il loro pesce diventa fetido per mancanza d’acqua, e muore di sete. ³ Io rivesto i cieli di nero, e do loro un cilicio per coperta. ⁴ Il Signore, l’Eterno, m’ha dato una lingua esercitata perch’io sappia sostenere con la parola lo stanco; egli risveglia, ogni mattina risveglia il mio orecchio, perch’io ascolti, come fanno i discepoli. ⁵ Il Signore, l’Eterno, m’ha aperto l’orecchio, ed io non sono stato ribelle e non mi son tratto indietro. ⁶ Io ho presentato il mio dorso a chi mi percoteva, e le me guance, a chi mi strappava la barba; io non ho nascosto il mio volto all’onta e agli sputi. ⁷ Ma il Signore, l’Eterno, m’ha soccorso; perciò non sono stato confuso; perciò ho reso la mia faccia simile ad un macigno, e so che non sarò svergognato. ⁸ Vicino è colui che mi giustifica; chi contenderà meco? compariamo assieme! Chi è il mio avversario? Mi venga vicino! ⁹ Ecco, il Signore, l’Eterno, mi verrà in aiuto; chi è colui che mi condannerà? Ecco, tutti costoro diventeranno logori come un vestito, la tignola li roderà. ¹⁰ Chi è tra voi che tema l’Eterno, che ascolti la voce del servo di lui? Benché cammini nelle tenebre, privo di luce, confidi nel nome dell’Eterno, e s’appoggi sul suo Dio! ¹¹ Ecco, voi tutti che accendete un fuoco, che vi cingete di tizzoni, andatevene nelle fiamme del vostro fuoco, e fra i tizzoni che avete accesso! Questo avrete dalla mia mano; voi giacerete nel dolore.

Korean⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ 나 여호와가 이 같이 이르노라 내가 너희 어미를 내어보낸 이혼서가 어디 있느냐 내가 어느 채주에게 너희를 팔았느냐 ? 오직 너희는 너희의 죄악을 인하여 팔렸고 너희 어미는 너희의 허물을 인하여 내어보냄을 입었느니라 ² 내가 왔어도 사람이 없었으며 내가 불러도 대답하는 자가 없었음은 어찜이뇨 내 손이 어찌 짧아 구속하지 못하겠느냐 ? 내게 어찌 건질 능력이 없겠느냐 ? 보라, 내가 꾸짖은즉 바다가 마르며 하수가 광야가 될 것이며 거기 물이 없어졌으므로 어족이 갈하여 죽어 악취를 발하게 되느니라 ³ 내가 흑암으로 하늘을 입히며 굵은 베로 덮느니라 ⁴ 주 여호와께서 학자의 혀를 내게 주사 나로 곤핍한 자를 말로 어떻게 도와줄 줄을 알게 하시고 아침마다 깨우치시되 나의 귀를 깨우치사 학자같이 알아듣게 하시도다 ⁵ 주 여호와께서 나의 귀를 열으셨으므로 내가 거역지도 아니하며 뒤로 물러가지도 아니하며 ⁶ 나를 때리는 자들에게 내 등을 맡기며 나의 수염을 뽑는 자들에게 나의 뺨을 맡기며 수욕과 침 뱉음을 피하려고 내 얼굴을 가리우지 아니하였느니라 ⁷ 주 여호와께서 나를 도우시므로 내가 부끄러워 아니하고 내 얼굴을 부싯돌 같이 굳게 하였은즉 내가 수치를 당치 아니할 줄 아노라 ⁸ 나를 의롭다 하시는 이가 가까이 계시니 나와 다툴 자가 누구뇨 나와 함께 설지어다 나의 대적이 누구뇨 내게 가까이 나아올지어다 ⁹ 주 여호와께서 나를 도우시리니 나를 정죄할 자 누구뇨 그들은 다 옷과 같이 해어지며 좀에게 먹히리라 ¹⁰ 너희 중에 여호와를 경외하며 그 종의 목소리를 청종하는 자가 누구뇨 흑암 중에 행하여 빛이 없는 자라도 여호와의 이름을 의뢰하며 자기 하나님께 의지할지어다 ¹¹ 불을 피우고 횃불을 둘러띤 자여 ! 너희가 다 너희의 불꽃 가운데로 들어가며 너희의 피운 횃불 가운데로 들어갈지어다 너희가 내 손에서 얻을 것이 이것이라 너희가 슬픔 중에 누우리라

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Taip sako Viešpats: “Kur yra jūsų motinos skyrybų raštas, kuriuo Aš ją atleidau? Kur yra skolintojas, kuriam už skolą jus atidaviau? Dėl savo nusikaltimų jūs pardavėte save, dėl jūsų neištikimybės jūsų motina atleista. ² Kodėl atėjęs Aš neradau žmogaus? Aš šaukiau ir niekas neatsiliepė. Argi mano ranka sutrumpėjo gelbėti? Argi neturiu jėgos išlaisvinti? Savo sudraudimu išdžiovinu jūrą, upes paverčiu dykuma. Žuvys trokšta ir gaišta, nes nebėra vandens. ³ Aš aptemdau dangų, apsupu jį ašutine”. ⁴ Viešpats Dievas davė man miklų liežuvį paguosti nuvargusį. Kiekvieną rytą Jis žadina mane, kad klausyčiau Jo mokymo; ⁵ Viešpats Dievas atvėrė man ausis, aš nesipriešinau ir nesitraukiau. ⁶ Aš leidausi mušamas ir tąsomas, neslėpiau veido nuo mane plūstančių ir į mane spjaudančių. ⁷ Viešpats Dievas padės man, todėl aš nebūsiu sugėdintas. Aš padariau savo veidą kietą kaip titnagas ir žinau, kad nebūsiu pažemintas. ⁸ Arti yra Tas, kuris mane išteisina, kas dabar su manimi ginčysis? Stokite čia. Kas nori su manimi bylinėtis, teateina. ⁹ Viešpats Dievas padės man. Kas drįs mane pasmerkti? Jie visi pasens kaip drabužis, kandys juos suės. ¹⁰ Kas iš jūsų bijo Viešpaties, teklauso Jo tarno balso.

Tai padarys mano ranka, jūs atsigulsite skausmuose.

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Tak mówi Pan: Gdzie jest list rozwodny matki waszej, którymem ją wolno puścił? albo kto jest z pożyczalników moich, któremum was zaprzedał? Otoście nieprawościami swojemi sami siebie zaprzedali, a dla przestępstw waszych wolno puszczona jest matka wasza. ² Przeczże, gdy przychodzę, niemasz nikogo? a gdy wołam, nikt się nie ozywa? Izali tak jest ukrócona ręka moja, aby nie mogła odkupić? Izali niemasz we mnie mocy ku wybawieniu? Oto fukiem moim osuszam morze, obracam rzeki w pustynie, tak iż zaśmier dną ryby ich dla niedostatku wody, i zdychają od pragnienia. ³ Obłoczę niebiosa w ciemności, a wór daję za odzienie ich. ⁴ Panujący Pan dał mi język umiejętny, abym umiał czasu przygodnego mówić słowo upracowanemu. Budzi mię na każdy zaranek, pobudza uszy moje, abym słuchał tak jako uczący się pilnie. ⁵ Panujący Pan otwiera mi uszy, a Ja się nie sprzeciwiam, ani się na wstecz wracam. ⁶ Ciała mego nadstawiam bijącym, a policzków moich tym, którzy mię targają; twarzy mojej nie zakrywam od obelżenia i plwania. ⁷ Bo panujący Pan wspomaga mię; przetoż nie bywam pohańbiony. Dla tego postawiłem twarz moję jako krzemień, gdyż wiem, że pohańbiony nie będę. ⁸ Bliskoć jest ten, który mię usprawiedliwia. Któż się sprzeczać będzie ze mną? Stańmy społem; kto ma prawo ze mną, niech przystąpi ku mnie. ⁹ Oto panujący Pan pomagać mi będzie; któż jest, coby mię potępił? Oto wszyscy takowi jako odzienie zwiotszeją, a mól zgryzie ich. ¹⁰ Kto jest między wami bojący się Pana, posłuchaj głosu sługi jego; kto jest, co chodzi w ciemnościach a nie ma światłości? ufaj w imieniu Pańskiem, a spolegaj na Bogu swoim. ¹¹ Oto wy wszyscy, którzy rozniecacie ogień, a przepasujecie się iskrami, chodźcież w światłości ognia waszego, i w iskrach, któreście rozniecili; z ręki mojej wam się to stanie, że w boleści leżeć będziecie.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Assim diz o Senhor: Onde está a carta de divórcio de vossa mãe, pela qual eu a repudiei? ou quem é o meu credor, a quem eu vos tenha vendido? Eis que por vossas maldades fostes vendidos, e por vossas transgressões foi repudiada vossa mãe. ² Por que razão, quando eu vim, ninguém apareceu? quando chamei, não houve quem respondesse? Acaso tanto se encolheu a minha mão, que já não possa remir? ou não tenho poder para livrar? Eis que com a minha repreensão faço secar o mar, e torno os rios em deserto; cheiram mal os seus peixes, pois não há água, e morrem de sede: ³ Eu visto os céus de negridão, e lhes ponho cilício por sua cobertura. ⁴ O Senhor Deus me deu a língua dos instruídos para que eu saiba sustentar com uma palavra o que está cansado; ele desperta-me todas as manhãs; desperta-me o ouvido para que eu ouça como discípulo. ⁵ O Senhor Deus abriu-me os ouvidos, e eu não fui rebelde, nem me retirei para trás. ⁶ Ofereci as minhas costas aos que me feriam, e as minhas faces aos que me arrancavam a barba; não escondi o meu rosto dos que me afrontavam e me cuspiam. ⁷ Pois o Senhor Deus me ajuda; portanto não me sinto confundido; por isso pus o meu rosto como um seixo, e sei que não serei envergonhado. ⁸ Perto está o que me justifica; quem contenderá comigo? apresentemo-nos juntos; quem é meu adversário? chegue-se para mim. ⁹ Eis que o Senhor Deus me ajuda; quem há que me condene? Eis que todos eles se envelhecerão como um vestido, e a traça os comerá. ¹⁰ Quem há entre vós que tema ao Senhor? ouça ele a voz do seu servo. Aquele que anda em trevas, e não tem luz, confie no nome do Senhor, e firme-se sobre o seu Deus. ¹¹ Eia! todos vós, que acendeis fogo, e vos cingis com tições acesos; andai entre as labaredas do vosso fogo, e entre os tições que ateastes! Isto vos sobrevirá da minha mão, e em tormentos jazereis.

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Så sier Herren: Hvor er eders mors skilsmissebrev, som jeg har jaget henne bort med? Eller hvem av dem som har noget å kreve av mig, har jeg solgt eder til? Nei, for eders misgjerningers skyld er I blitt solgt, og for eders overtredelsers skyld er eders mor blitt jaget bort. ² Hvorfor var det ingen til stede da jeg kom? Hvorfor var det ingen som svarte da jeg ropte? Er min hånd for kort til å forløse, eller er det ingen kraft hos mig til å frelse? Se, ved min trusel tørker jeg ut havet, gjør jeg elver til en ørk, så fiskene i dem stinker, fordi der intet vann er, og dør av tørst; ³ jeg klær himmelen i sort og innhyller den i sørgedrakt. ⁴ Herren, Israels Gud, har gitt mig en disippeltunge, så jeg skal kunne kvege den trette med mitt ord; han vekker mitt øre hver morgen, han vekker det forat jeg skal høre som disipler hører. ⁵ Herren, Israels Gud, har åpnet mitt øre, og jeg var ikke gjenstridig, jeg vek ikke tilbake. ⁶ Min rygg bød jeg frem til dem som slo, og mine kinner til dem som rykket mig i skjegget; mitt ansikt skjulte jeg ikke for hån og spytt. ⁷ Men Herren, Israels Gud, vil hjelpe mig; derfor blir jeg ikke til skamme, derfor har jeg gjort mitt ansikt hårdt som sten, og jeg vet at jeg ikke skal bli skuffet. ⁸ Han er nær, han som hjelper mig til min rett; hvem vil stride mot mig? La oss stå frem sammen! Hvem er min motpart? La ham komme hit til mig! ⁹ Se, Herren, Israels Gud, vil hjelpe mig; hvem er den som vil domfelle mig? Se, de skal alle sammen eldes som et klædebon; møll skal fortære dem. ¹⁰ Hvem blandt eder frykter Herren og hører på hans tjeners røst? Når han vandrer i mørke, og intet lys skinner for ham, skal han sette sin lit til Herrens navn og stole på sin Gud! ¹¹ Se, alle I som tender ild, som væbner eder med brandpiler, gå selv inn i luen av eders ild og blandt de brandpiler I har tendt! - Fra min hånd skal dette times eder; i pine skal I komme til å ligge.

Pentruce n'a răspuns nimeni cînd am strigat? Este mîna Mea prea scurtă ca să răscumpere? Sau n'am Eu destulă putere ca să izbăvesc?

Să ne înfăţişăm împreună!`,Cine este protivnicul Meu? Să înainteze spre Mine!` ⁹ Iată, Domnul Dumnezeu Mă ajută: cine Mă va osîndi? Într'adevăr, se prefac cu toţii în zdrenţe ca o haină: molia îi va mînca. ¹⁰ Cine dintre voi se teme de Domnul, să asculte glasul Robului Său!

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Так говорить Господь: Де вашої матері лист розводовий, з яким Я її відпустив? Або хто є з Моїх боргувальників, якому Я вас був продав? Тож за ваші провини ви продані, і за ваші гріхи ваша мати відпущена. ² Чому то нікого немає, коли Я приходжу, і не відповідає ніхто, коли кличу? Чи рука Моя справді короткою стала, щоб викупляти, і хіба рятувати нема в Мені сили?

Станьмо разом, хто Мій супротивник? Хай до Мене підійде! ⁹ Отож, Господь Бог допоможе Мені, хто ж отой, що признає Мене винуватим? ¹⁰ Хто між вами лякається Господа і голос Його Отрока слухає? Хто ходить у темряві, світла ж немає йому, хай надіється він на Господнє Ім'я, і хай на Бога свого опирається! ¹¹ Тож усі, що огонь ви запалюєте, що огненними стрілами ви поузброювані, ходіть у жарі свого огню та в стрілах огненних, які розпалили!
