THE WORD OF YAH VEH AGAINST THE SONS OF YISRA EL
Hear this word that Yah Veh words against you, O sons of Yisra El - against the whole family I ascended from the land of Misrayim, saying, ² You only, know I of all the families of the soil: so I visit on you for all your perversities. ³ Walk two together, unless they congregate? ⁴ Roars a lion in the forest, when he has no prey? Gives a whelp his voice from his habitation unless he captures? ⁵ Falls a bird in a snare on the earth where he has no snare? Ascends a snare from the soil and in capturing, captures not? ⁶ Blasts a shophar in the city and the people tremble not? Becomes there evil in a city and Yah Veh worked it not? ⁷ Surely Adonay Yah Veh works no word; unless he exposes his private counsel to his servants the prophets. ⁸ The lion roars, who awes not? Adonay Yah Veh words, who prophesies not? ⁹ O that it be heard in the citadels at Ashdod and in the citadels in the land of Misrayim, and say, Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Shomeron, and see the great confusions in the midst and the oppressed in the midst. ¹⁰ For they know not to work straightforwardness - an oracle of Yah Veh who treasure violence and ravage in their citadels. ¹¹ So thus says Adonay Yah Veh: A tribulator surrounds the land and he brings down your strength and plunders your citadels. ¹² Thus says Yah Veh: As the tender rescues from the mouth of the lion two legs or a piece of an ear, thus are the sons of Yisra El rescued who settle in Shomeron in the edge of a bed; and in Dammeseq in a bedstead. ¹³ Hearken and witness in the house of Yaaqov - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh Elohim Sabaoth ¹⁴ in the day I visit the rebellions of Yisra El on him I also visit the sacrifice altars of Beth El: and cut off the horns of the sacrifice altar to fall to the earth: ¹⁵ and I smite the winter house with the summer house; and destroy the houses of ivory, and consummate the great houses - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹⁵ and he says, Hearken, all Yah Hudah, and you, settlers of Yeru Shalem, and you, sovereign Yah Shaphat: thus says Yah Veh to you: Neither awe nor terrify at the face of this great multitude; for the war is not to you, but to Elohim:

³ Hearken to me, O house of Yaaqov, and all survivors of the house of Yisra El - who are loaded from the belly; who are raised from the womb:

¹² Hearken to me, O Yaaqov and Yisra El, my called; I am he; I - first; yes, I - final.

³ and death is chosen rather than life by all the survivors who survive of this evil family who survive in all the places I drive them - an oracle of Yah Veh Sabaoth.

¹
THE ETERNAL LOVE OF YAH VEH
At the same time, - an oracle of Yah Veh I become Elohim of all the families of Yisra El, and they become my people.

²⁴ See you not what this people word, saying, The two families Yah Veh chose, he spurns? Thus they scorn my people, that they are no more a goyim at their face. ²⁵ Thus says Yah Veh: If my covenant is not day and night; if I set not the statutes of the heavens and earth; ²⁶ then I also spurn the seed of Yaaqov and David my servant, that I not take of his seed to be sovereigns over the seed of Abraham, Yischaq, and Yaaqov: for I restore their captivity, and mercy them.

¹⁶ And you, son of humanity, take one tree and inscribe thereon, For Yah Hudah, and for the sons of Yisra El his companions: and take one tree and inscribe thereon, For Yoseph, the tree of Ephrayim and for all the house of Yisra El his companions: ¹⁷ and approach them one by one into one tree; and they become one in your hand.

¹
THE CONTROVERSY OF YAH VEH
Hear the word of Yah Veh, you sons of Yisra El: because of a controversy of Yah Veh with the settlers of the land; because there is neither truth nor mercy nor knowledge of Elohim in the land:

¹
THE JUDGMENT OF YAH VEH AGAINST YISRA EL
Hear this, O priests; and hearken, you house of Yisra El; and hearken, O house of the sovereign: for judgment is toward you because you become a snare on Mispeh, and a net spread over Tabor:

¹⁰ And I ascended you from the land of Misrayim; and carried you forty years through the wilderness to possess the land of the Emoriy:

¹
THE WORD OF YAH VEH TO YAAQOV AND YISRA EL
And I say, Hear, I beseech you, O heads of Yaaqov and you commanders of the house of Yisra El; Is it not for you to know judgment?

²⁹ Whoever has an ear, hear what the Spirit words to the ecclesiae.

³² These are the families of the sons of Noach, by their generations, in their goyim: and by these the goyim separate in the earth after the flood.

⁵ and now, if in hearing, you hear my voice and guard my covenant, then you - you become to me a peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine: ⁶ and you become to me a sovereigndom of priests and a holy goyim. These are the words you word to the sons of Yisra El. 2 Petros 2:9, Apocalypse 1:6

⁶ For you are a holy people to Yah Veh your Elohim: Yah Veh your Elohim chose you to be his peculiar people above all people on the face of the soil.

¹⁵ Only, Yah Veh attached himself to your fathers to love them; and he chose their seed after them - you above all people, as this day.

¹⁸ And Yah Veh says this day for you to become his peculiar people, as he worded to you: and to guard all his misvoth;

⁹ For the allotment of Yah Veh is his people; Yaaqov is the boundary of his inheritance.

¹⁹ he tells his word to Yaaqov - his words and his judgments to Yisra El.

¹⁹ We are yours: you neither reigned over them eternally; nor were they called by your name.

¹⁵ for behold, I call all the families of the sovereigndoms of the north - an oracle of Yah Veh and they come and they give every man his throne at the opening of the portals of Yeru Shalem and against all the walls all round and against all the cities of Yah Hudah:

²⁵ Behold, days come, - an oracle of Yah Veh that I visit on them who are circumcised in the foreskin

²⁵ Pour your fury on the goyim who know you not, and on the families who call not on your name: for they consume Yaaqov - consume him and finish him off and desolate his habitation of rest.

²² So thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth, Behold, I visit on them: their youths die by the sword their sons and their daughters die by famine:

²¹ What say you when he visits on you? - for you taught them to be chiliarchs, and as chief over you: pangs, overtake they you not, as in birthing?

¹⁰ Thus says Yah Veh to this people, Thus they love to wander; they spare not their feet: so Yah Veh is not pleased in them; now he remembers their perversity and visits their sins.

⁶ slaughter to ruin aged and youth and virgin and toddler and women: but come not near any man on whom is the tattoo; and begin at my holies. - and they begin at the aged men at the face of the house.

³⁶ as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Misrayim, thus I plead with you - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh ³⁷ and I pass you under the scion and I bring you into the bond of the covenant: ³⁸ and I purge the rebels from among you, and they who rebel against me: I bring them from the land where they sojourn and they enter not into the soil of Yisra El: and you know I - Yah Veh.

¹² And he raises the words he worded against us and against our judges who judge us, by bringing a great evil on us - as never worked under the whole heavens as he works on Yeru Shalem:

¹³ and I visit on her the days of Baalim, wherein she incenses to them; and adorns herself with her noserings and her ornaments, and goes after her lovers, and forgets me - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹³ they sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of my holocausts, and eat; Yah Veh is not pleased with them; now he remembers their perversity and visits their sins: they return to Misrayim.

⁹ They deepen; they ruin as in the days of Gibah: he remembers their perversity; he visits their sins.

⁴ Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the whore of good charism, the baalah of sorceries, who sells goyim through her whoredoms, and families through her sorceries.

¹⁷ And so be it, whoever, of the families of the earth, who ascend not to Yeru Shalem to prostrate to the Sovereign Yah Veh Sabaoth, even on them is downpour. ¹⁸ And if the family of Misrayim neither ascend nor come, then the plague is on them wherewith Yah Veh smites the goyim who ascend not to celebrate the celebration of sukkoth/brush arbors:

²⁰
YAH SHUA REPROACHES THE CITIES
Then he begins to reproach the cities wherein most of his dynamis became, because they repent not. ²¹ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Beth Sayad! for if the dynamis that became in you, had become in Sor and Sidon, they had repented long ago in saq and ashes. ²² Moreover I word to you, It becomes more tolerable for Sor and Sidon in the day of judgment, than for you. ²³ And you, Kaphar Nachum - exalted to the heavens to descend to sheol/hades: for if the dynamis that became in you had become in Sedom, it had abode until this day. ²⁴ Moreover I word to you, that in the day of judgment it becomes more tolerable for the land of Sedom, than for you.

⁴⁷ And that servant, who knows the will of his adoni, who neither prepares nor does according to his will is flogged often. ⁴⁸ But whoever knows not whose doings are worthy of plagues is flogged little. For to whomever much is given, of him much is sought: and to whom men set forth much, of him they ask superabundantly.

²⁶ and also made of one blood all goyim of humanity to settle on all the face of the earth; and decreed the times and prearranged the seasons and the boundaries of their settlement;

⁹ tribulation and distress upon every soul of humanity who works evil - both of the Yah Hudiy first and also of the Hellene;

¹⁷ Because this is the season that judgment must begin from the house of El: and if first from us, what is the completion/shalom of them who distrust the evangelism of Elohim?

²² and after he births Methusha Lach Hanoch walks with Elohim three hundred years and births sons and daughters:

⁹ These are the generations of Noach: Noach is a just man and integrious in his generations; and Noach walks with Elohim:

¹ And so be it, Abram is a son of ninety years and nine years and Yah Veh is seen by Abram and says to him, I am El Shadday; walk at my face and be integrious:

¹⁴
UNEQUAL YOKES
Yoke not unequally with the trustless! For what partaking has justness with torah violations? And what communion has light with darkness? ¹⁵ And what symphony has Messiah with Beli Yaal? Or what part has the trusting with the trustless? ¹⁶ And what togetherness has the nave of Elohim with idols? For you are the nave of the living Elohim; exactly as Elohim says, I indwell them and walk among them; and I become their Elohim; and they become my people. ^{Leviticus 26:12, Jeremiah 31:33, Ezekiel El 36:28, Zechariah 13:9}

²¹ the whelps roar after their prey and seek their food from El:

¹⁴ For I am to Ephrayim as a roaring lion and as a whelp to the house of Yah Hudah: I - I tear and go away; I bear away; and no one rescues:

¹⁰ They walk after Yah Veh; he roars as a lion: when he roars, the sons from the seaward tremble:

² And he says, Yah Veh roars from Siyon and gives his voice from Yeru Shalem; and the folds of the tenders mourn and the top of Karmel/orchard withers.

⁸ The lion roars, who awes not? Adonay Yah Veh words, who prophesies not?

¹² For even humanity knows not his time - as the fishes held in an evil lure as the birds held in the snare thus the sons of humanity, snared in an evil time, when it falls suddenly on them.

²⁸ And so be it, as I watched over them to uproot and to break down and to demolish and to destroy and to vilify, thus I watch over them to build and to plant - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹⁴ and Yah Veh watches on the evil, and brings it on us: for Yah Veh our Elohim is just in all the works he works: for we hearken not to his voice.

²⁰ But as for you, you fabricated evil against me; but Elohim fabricated it to good, in order to work, as this day, to preserve many people alive.

²⁴
THE BURDEN OF ASHSHUR
Yah Veh Sabaoth oaths, saying, Surely as I consider, so be it; and as I counsel, so it rises: ²⁵ that I break the Ashshuri in my land, and trample him upon my mountains: and turn aside his yoke from off them and turn aside his burden from off their shoulders. ²⁶ This is the counsel counselled upon the whole earth: and this is the hand spread upon all the goyim. ²⁷ For Yah Veh Sabaoth counsels, and who breaks it? and his hand spreads, and who turns it back?

⁷ I form the light and create darkness: I work shalom and create evil: I Yah Veh work all these.

⁵
YAH VEH WARNS YISRA EL
Tell it in Yah Hudah and have it heard in Yeru Shalem; and say, Blast the shophar in the land! Call out, fulfill, and say, Gather, and we go into the fortified cities.

²² Awe you not me? - an oracle of Yah Veh: Writhe you not at my face - who set the sand for the border of the sea by an eternal statute, that it not pass? And though the waves agitate, yet they prevail not? And though they roar, yet they pass not over it?

¹
YERU SHALEM IS VISITED
O you sons of Ben Yamin, withdraw yourselves to flee from midst Yeru Shalem: and blast the shophar in Teqoa and lift a burden in Beth Hak Kerem: for evil looks from the north, and great breaking.

⁷ Who awes you not, O Sovereign of goyim? For it becomes you: for among all the wise of the goyim, and in all their sovereigndoms, there is no one like you.

³ and he sees the sword approach the land, he blasts the shophar and enlightens the people:

⁸ You, blast the shophar in Gibah and the trumpet in Ramah: shout at the house of mischief, After you, O Ben Yamin!

¹⁶ a day of the shophar and blast against the fortified cities and against the high corners.

²³ this one, being given over by the decreed counsel and prognosis of Elohim, you took, and through untorahed hands, staked and took out:

²⁸ to do as much as your hand and your counsel predetermined to become.

¹¹
ALL DIED
So knowing the awe of Adonay, we convince humanity; and manifest to Elohim; and I hope also, manifest in your consciences.

¹³ And Elohim says to Noach, The end of all flesh comes at my face; for the earth is filled with violence at their face; and behold, I ruin them with the earth.

¹⁷ And Yah Veh says, Hide I what I work from Abraham?

¹⁹ And he says, Therefore hear the word of Yah Veh: I see Yah Veh settled on his throne and all the host of the heavens stand by him at his right and at his left. ²⁰ And Yah Veh says, Who entices Ach Ab to ascend and fall at Ramoth Gilad? And this one says thus; and that one says thus: ²¹ and a spirit goes and stands at the face of Yah Veh and says, I entice him. ²² And Yah Veh says to him, How? And he says, I go and I become a false spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he says, Entice him and also prevail: Go! Work thus! ²³ And now behold, Yah Veh gives a false spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets and Yah Veh words evil concerning you.

¹⁷ for thus says Yah Veh, you neither see wind nor see rain; and that wadi fills with water and you drink - both you and your chattel and your animals: ¹⁸ and this is a trifle in the eyes of Yah Veh: and he gives the Moabiy into your hand. ¹⁹ Smite every fortified city and every choice city and fell every good tree and stop all fountains of water and pain every good allotment with stones. ²⁰ And so be it, in the morning, they holocaust the offering, and behold, water comes by the way of Edom and the land fills with water.

¹² And one of his servants says, None, my adoni, O sovereign: for Eli Shua, the prophet in Yisra El, tells the sovereign of Yisra El the words you word in your bedchamber.

¹³ Go you, enquire of Yah Veh for me and for the people and for all Yah Hudah concerning the words of this scroll they found: for the great fury of Yah Veh kindles against us; because our fathers hearkened not to the words of this scroll - to work according to all inscribed concerning us.

²⁰ So behold, I gather you to your fathers - gather you to your tomb in shalom that your eyes not see all the evil I bring on this place. - and they return word to the sovereign.

¹⁴ the private counsel of Yah Veh is with them who awe him; and he has them know his covenant.

²² But had they stood in my private counsel and had my people heard my words, then they had turned them from their evil way and from the evil of their exploits.

²² and discerns, and words with me, and says, O Dani El, I now come forth to have you comprehend discernment: ²³ at the beginning of your supplications the word came forth, and I come to tell; for you are desired: so discern the word and discern the vision. ²⁴
THE VISION OF THE SEVENTY WEEKS
Seventy weeks are cut on your people and on your holy city to restrain the rebellion and to seal up sins and to kapar/atone for perversity and to bring in eternal justness and to seal up the vision and the prophet and to anoint the holy of holies. ²⁵ So know and comprehend, that from the proceeding of the word to restore and to build Yeru Shalem to the Messiah, the Eminent is seven weeks and sixty-two weeks - to restore and rebuild the broadway and the trench even in times of distress. ²⁶ And after sixty-two weeks Messiah is cut off; but not for himself: and the people of the eminent who comes ruins the city and the holies; and the end is with an overflowing; and to the end of the war desolations are appointed. ²⁷ And he empowers a covenant with many - one week: and in the half of the week he shabbathizes the sacrifice and the offering; and for the wing of abominations he desolates it even until the final finish; and pours what is appointed on the desolate.

²¹ but I tell you what is signified in the inscribing of truth: and no one holds with me in these except Michah El your governor.

² and now, I tell you the truth: behold, three sovereigns still stand in Persia; and the fourth enriches in greater riches than they all: and by his strength and through his riches he wakens all against the sovereigndom of Yavan:

¹⁵
THE NEW RELATIONSHIP
Henceforth I word you not, servants; for the servant knows not what his adoni does: but I say of you, friends; for all I heard of my Father I made known to you.

¹
PROLOGUE
The Apocalypse of Yah Shua Messiah, that Elohim gave him to show his servants what must quickly become; and he apostolized and signified it through his angel to his servant Yahn:

¹⁹ Scribe those you saw and those being and those to become after these.

¹
IN SPIRIT, IN THE HEAVENS
After these I perceive, and behold, an opened portal in the heavens: and the first voice I hear is as a trumpet speaking with me; wording, Ascend hither, and I show you what must be after these ^*. ^{*some mss place after these at the beginning of verse 2}

¹
THE FIRST SEAL
And I see when the Lamb opens one of the seals and I hear, as the voice of thunder, one of the four live beings wording, Come and see. ² And I see, and behold, a white horse: and he sitting on him has a bow; and he is given a wreath: and he goes triumphing and to triumph. ³
THE SECOND SEAL
And when he opens the second seal, I hear the second live being wording, Come and see. ⁴ And another horse goes - fiery: and he sitting thereon is given to take shalom from the earth; and that they slaughter one another: and he is given a mega sword. ⁵
THE THIRD SEAL
And when he opens the third seal, I hear the third live being wording, Come and see. And I perceive, and behold, a black horse; and he sitting on him has a yoke in his hand. ⁶ And I hear a voice midst the four live beings, wording, A choinix of grain for a denarion and three choinixes of barley for a denarion; and injure not the olive oil and the wine. ⁷
THE FOURTH SEAL
And when he opens the fourth seal, I hear the voice of the fourth live being wording, Come and see. ⁸ And I perceive, and behold, a green horse: and he sitting on him - his name is Death and Hades/Sheol follows with him. And they are given authority over the fourth of the earth to slaughter in sabre and in famine and in death and by the beasts of the earth. ⁹
THE FIFTH SEAL
And when he opens the fifth seal, I see under the sacrifice altar the souls of them slaughtered for the word of Elohim and for the witness they held. ¹⁰ And they cry with a mega voice, wording, Until when, O Despotes, the holy and the true, judge you not, and avenge our blood from them who settle on the earth? ¹¹ And each of them is given white stoles; and they are rhetorized to rest yet for a little time, until their co-servants and their brothers about to be slaughtered as they, also be fulfilled/shalamed. ¹²
THE SIXTH SEAL
And I perceive, when he opens the sixth seal; and behold, a mega quake becomes; and the sun becomes black as saq of hair and the moon becomes as blood; ¹³ and the stars of the heavens fall to the earth, even as a fig tree casts her unripened when quaked by a mega wind: ¹⁴ and the heavens separate as a scroll when it is coiled; and every mountain and island stirs from their places. ¹⁵ And the sovereigns of the earth and the magistrates and the rich and the chiliarchs and the able and all the servants and all the liberated secrete themselves in the grottos and in the rocks of the mountains: ¹⁶ and word to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us and secrete us from the face of him sitting on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb: ¹⁷ because the mega day of his wrath is come; and who is able to stand?

¹⁸ for I am full of utterances, the spirit of my belly distresses me. ¹⁹ Behold, my belly - as unopened wine - to split as new skins.

⁹ Then I say, I neither mention him, nor word any more in his name: and it is in my heart as a burning fire restrained in my bones: and I am weary with containing and I am not able:

¹² And you have the Separatists drink wine; and misvah the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.

⁴ Roars a lion in the forest, when he has no prey? Gives a whelp his voice from his habitation unless he captures?

¹² Also Amas Yah says to Amos, O you seer, go, flee into the land of Yah Hudah, and there eat bread, and there prophesy: ¹³ and add not to prophesy any more at Beth El: for it is the holies of the sovereigndom and it is the house of the sovereign. ¹⁴ Then Amos answers and says to Amas Yah, I am neither a prophet nor a son of a prophet; but I am a herdman and a pincher of sycomores: ¹⁵ and as I follow the flock, Yah Veh takes me and Yah Veh says to me, Go, prophesy to my people Yisra El. ¹⁶ And now, hear the word of Yah Veh: You say, Neither prophesy against Yisra El nor drip against the house of Yischaq. ¹⁷ So Yah Veh says thus: Your woman whores in the city and your sons and your daughters fall by the sword and your soil is allotted by line; and you die in a foul soil: and in exiling, Yisra El is exiled from his soil.

¹
THE WORD OF YAH VEH TO YONAH
And so be the word of Yah Veh to Yonah the son of Amittay, saying, ² Rise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it; for their evil ascends at my face. ³
YONAH FLEES FROM YAH VEH
And Yonah rises to flee from the face of Yah Veh to Tarshish; and descends to Yapho; and he finds a ship going to Tarshish: so he gives the hire and descends into it to go with them to Tarshish from the face of Yah Veh.

¹
THE SECOND WORD OF YAH VEH TO YONAH
And so be the word of Yah Veh to Yonah secondly, saying, ² Rise, go to Nineveh, that great city; and call out to it the calling I word you. ³ And Yonah rises, and goes to Nineveh according to the word of Yah Veh - Nineveh is a great city of Elohim of a walk of three days.

²⁰ For we cannot but speak what we saw and heard.

²⁰ Go, stand in the priestal precinct and speak to the people of all the rhema of this life.

²⁹ But Petros and the other apostles answer, saying, We must first obey Elohim rather than humanity.

¹⁶ For whenever I evangelize, I have naught to boast: for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe to me, whenever I evangelize not!

⁵ And one of the elders words to me, Weep not: behold, the Lion, being of the scion of Yah Hudah, the Root of David, triumphed to open the scroll and to loose the seven seals thereof.

²⁴ - even all goyim say, Why works Yah Veh thus to this land? - this great fuming wrath? ²⁵ Then men say, Because they forsake the covenant of Yah Veh Elohim of their fathers, which he cut with them when he brought them from the land of Misrayim: ²⁶ and they go and serve other elohim and prostrate to them - elohim they never knew and whom he never allotted to them: ²⁷ and Yah Veh kindles his wrath against this land to bring thereon all the abasements inscribed in this scroll: ²⁸ and Yah Veh uproots them from their soil in wrath - in wrath and in great rage and casts them to another land, as this day.

¹
THE ARK REMOVED
And the Peleshethiy take the ark of Elohim and bring it from Eben Ezer to Ashdod:

²⁰ Neither tell in Gath, nor evangelize in the outskirts of Ashqelon; lest the daughters of the Peleshethiy cheer, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised jump for joy.

¹⁰ For pass over the islands of Kittim, and see; and send to Qedar, and discern mightily; and see if there be such. ¹¹ Changes a goyim their elohim to a non-elohim? and my people change their honor for that which benefits not.

⁸ And many goyim pass by this city and they say every man to his friend, Why works Yah Veh thus to this great city? ⁹ And they say, Because they forsook the covenant of Yah Veh their Elohim; and prostrated to other elohim and served them.

⁵ again, you plant vines on the mountains of Shomeron: the planters plant and profane.

⁷ For thus says Yah Veh: Shout with cheerfulness for Yaaqov and resound among the chief of the goyim: hearken, praise, and say, O Yah Veh, save your people, the survivors of Yisra El. ⁸ Behold, I bring them from the north land, and gather them from the flanks of the land; the blind and the lame the woman with child and she who births together among them: a great congregation returns there: ⁹ they come with weeping; and with supplications I lead them: I walk them by the wadies of waters in a straight way wherein they falter not: for I am a father to Yisra El and Ephrayim is my firstbirthed.

¹⁴ Tell it in Misrayim and have them hear in Migdol; and have them hear in Noph and in Tachpanches! Say, Stand fast and prepare! For the sword consumes all around you!

² Tell you among the goyim and have them hear; and lift an ensign: have them hear; and conceal not: say, Babel is captured, Bel is shamed, Merodach is broken: her idols are shamed; her idols are broken.

⁸ and you, O mountains of Yisra El, give your branches and bear your fruit to my people of Yisra El; for they approach to come.

²² and I work them one goyim in the land on the mountains of Yisra El; and one sovereign becomes sovereign to them all: and they neither becme two goyim any more, nor halved into two sovereigndoms any more:

⁸ and I cut off the settler from Ashdod and he who upholds the scion from Ashkelon; and I turn my hand against Eqron: and destroy the survivors of the Peleshethiym, says Adonay Yah Veh.

¹
YISRA EL UNREPENTANT
Hear this word, you heifers of Bashan in the mountain of Shomeron - who oppress the poor; who crush the needy; who say to their adonim, Bring, and we drink.

¹
HO TO THEM WHO RELAX IN SIYON
Ho to them who relax in Siyon and confide in the mountain of Shomeron - the appointed firstlings of the goyim to whom the house of Yisra El comes!

⁶ - to chattel the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of shoes? - to market kernels, the chaff of the grain?

⁴ Have all doing mischief not known? - who eat my people as they eat bread - who call not on Yah Veh.

²² For my people are foolish, they know me not; foolish sons and they discern not: wise to vilify and to well-please they know not.

⁴ And I - I say, Surely these are poor; they folly: for they know neither the way of Yah Veh nor the judgment of their Elohim.

⁷ You who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off justness in the earth,

¹² Run horses on the rock? Plows one with oxen? For you turn judgment into rosh and the fruit of justness into wormwood.

⁸ Because you spoil many goyim all the remnant of the people spoil you - because of human blood and for the violence of the land; of the city and all who settle therein. ⁹ Ho to him who greedily gains an evil greedy gain to his house - to set his nest on high - to rescue himself from the palm of evil! ¹⁰ You counsel shame to your house by scraping off many people and sin against your soul. ¹¹ For the stone cries from the wall: and the crossbeam of timber answers.

⁹ In the same day, I also visit on all who leap on the threshold - who fill the houses of their adoniym with violence and deceit.

³ And he says to me, This is the oath going over the face of the whole earth: for every one who steals is exonerated as on this side, thus; and every one who oaths is exonerated as on that side, thus. ⁴ I bring it forth - an oracle of Yah Veh Sabaoth and it enters into the house of the thief and into his house who oaths falsely by my name: and it stays overnight midst his house and finishs it off with the timber and the stones. THE EPHAH

³ your gold and silver rust; and their rust becomes a witness against you to consume your flesh as fire. You treasured in the final days. ⁴ Behold, the hire of the workers who ingathered your regions - whom you cheated, cries out: and the cries of them who harvest enter the ears of Yah Veh Sabaoth.

⁵ They will to hide from this: that by the word of Elohim the heavens being of old and the earth standing from the water and through the water:

¹⁹ Pul the sovereign of Ashshur comes against the land: and Menachem gives Pul a thousand rounds of silver that his hand be with him to uphold the sovereigndom in his hand:

²⁹ In the days of Peqach sovereign of Yisra El Tilgath Pileser sovereign of Ashshur comes and takes Iyon and Abel Beth Maachah and Yanochah and Qedesh and Hasor and Gilad and Galiyl - all the land of Naphtali and exiles them to Ashshur.

³ Shalmaneser sovereign of Ashshur ascends against him; and Hoshea becomes his servant and returns him offerings: ⁴ and the sovereign of Ashshur finds conspiracy in Hoshea: for he sends angels to So the sovereign of Misrayim and holocausts no offering to the sovereign of Ashshur as year by year: and the sovereign of Ashshur restrains him and binds him in the house of prison: ⁵ and the sovereign of Ashshur ascends to all the land and ascends to Shomeron and besieges it three years. ⁶
YISRA EL EXILED
In the ninth year of Hoshea the sovereign of Ashshur captures Shomeron and exiles Yisra El to Ashshur; and sets them in Halach and in Habor by the river Gozan and in the cities of the Madaim.

⁹ And so be it, in the fourth year of sovereign Yechizqi Yah - the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah sovereign of Yisra El, Shalmaneser sovereign of Ashshur ascends against Shomeron and besieges it: ¹⁰ and at the end of three years they capture it: in the sixth year of Yechizqi Yah - in the ninth year of Hoshea sovereign of Yisra El Shomeron is captured: ¹¹ and the sovereign of Ashshur exiles Yisra El to Ashshur; and guides them in Halach and in Habor by the river Gozan; and in the cities of the Madaim:

¹⁹ and they burn the house of Elohim and pull down the wall of Yeru Shalem and burn all the citadels thereof with fire and ruin all the instruments of desire thereof:

¹⁷ Yah Veh brings upon you and upon your people and upon the house of your father, days such as came not - even from the day Ephrayim turned aside from Yah Hudah by the sovereign of Ashshur. ¹⁸ And so be it, in that day, Yah Veh hisses for the fly in the end of the rivers of Misrayim and for the bee in the land of Ashshur: ¹⁹ and they all come and rest in the wadies of desolations and in the holes of the rocks and upon all thorns and upon all pastures. ²⁰ In the same day, Adonay, by the sovereign of Ashshur, with a razor, shaves the hireling beyond the river - the head, and the hair of the feet: yes, also scrapes away the beard. ²¹ And so be it, in that day, that a man keeps alive a young heifer of the herd, and two flock; ²² and so be it, for the abundance of milk that they work he eats butter: for every one who remains in the land eats butter and honey. ²³ And so be it, in that day, so be it, that every place where there are a thousand vines worth a thousand silverlings, it becomes for briers and thorns: ²⁴ he comes there with arrows and with bows; because all the land becomes briers and thorns: ²⁵ and on all hills hoed with the hoe, there comes not the fear of briers and thorns: but it becomes for the sending forth of oxen, and for the trampling of lambs.

⁷ so, behold, Adonay ascends upon them the waters of the river, mighty and many, the sovereign of Ashshur and all his honor: and he ascends over all his reservoirs and goes over all his banks: ⁸ and he passes through Yah Hudah; he overflows and passes over; he touches to the neck: and the spreading of his wings fills the breadth of your land, O Immanu El.

⁵ Ho, Ashshuri, the scion of my wrath; and the rod in their hand, my rage: ⁶ I send him against a goyim of profaners and against the people of my wrath; I misvah him to take the spoil and to plunder the plunder; and to set them for trampling as the heap of the outways:

⁹ Is not Kalneh as Karchemish? Is not Hamath as Arpad? Is not Shomeron as Dammeseq? ¹⁰ As my hand found the sovereigndoms of the idol, and their sculptiles of Yeru Shalem and Shomeron; ¹¹ Work I not as I worked to Shomeron and her idols? Work thus to Yeru Shalem and her idols?

⁵ He returns not to the land of Misrayim, and the Ashshuri is his sovereign - because they refuse to return: ⁶ and the sword whirls on his cities and finishes off his branches and consumes because of their own counsels.

⁵ and I send a fire on Yah Hudah, to consume the citadels of Yeru Shalem.

¹⁰ For they know not to work straightforwardness - an oracle of Yah Veh who treasure violence and ravage in their citadels.

¹⁵ and I smite the winter house with the summer house; and destroy the houses of ivory, and consummate the great houses - an oracle of Yah Veh.

⁸ Adonay Yah Veh oaths by his soul ^{* *Yah Veh is the soul of the triune deity Read: Yirme Yah 51:14} - an oracle of Yah Veh Elohim Sabaoth. I loathe the pomp of Yaaqov and hate his citadels: so I shut up the city with the fulness thereof.

¹⁴ Surely behold, I raise a goyim against you, O house of Yisra El - an oracle of Yah Veh Elohim Sabaoth and they afflict you from the entering in of Hemath to the wadi of the plain.

³⁴ And David says to Shaul, As your servant tends the flock of his father, a lion and a bear came and lifted a lamb from the drove: ³⁵ and I went out after him and smote him and rescued it from his mouth: and he rose against me, and I held him by his beard and smote him and deathified him: ³⁶ your servant smote both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Peleshethiy becomes as one of them, seeing he reproaches the ranks of the living Elohim. ³⁷ And David says, Yah Veh who rescued me from the hand of the lion and from the hand of the bear - he rescues me from the hand of this Peleshethiy. And Shaul says to David, Go! And Yah Veh be with you!

³⁰ and the remaining flee to Apheq - to the city; and a wall falls on twenty-seven thousand of the men who remain: and Ben Hadad flees and comes to the city - to an inner chamber.

³⁴ and says to him, The cities my father took from your father, I restore; and set outways for yourself in Dammeseq, as my father set in Shomeron. Then he says, I send you away with this covenant. - and he cuts a covenant with him and sends him away.

²⁵ And Michah Yah says, Behold, you see in that day when you go into an inner chamber to hide yourself.

⁹ and the sovereign of Ashshur hearkens to him: and the sovereign of Ashshur ascends against Dammeseq and apprehends it and captures it to Qir; and deathifies Resin.

⁴ for ere the lad knows to call out, My father! and, My mother!, they lift the valuables of Dammeseq and the spoil of Shomeron from the face of the sovereign of Ashshur.

THE BURDEN OF DAMMESEQ
The burden of Dammeseq: Behold, Dammeseq turns aside as a city and becomes a ruinous ruin: ² the cities of Aroer are abandoned: they become for droves that crouch, and no one trembles them: ³ and the fortress from Ephrayim shabbathizes with the sovereigndom from Dammeseq; and the survivors of Aram become as the honor of the sons of Yisra El - an oracle of Yah Veh Sabaoth. ⁴ And so be it, in that day, the honor of Yaaqov languishes and the fatness of his flesh emaciates:

⁴ For Yah Veh says thus to me, As the lion and the whelp meditate on his prey when a fulness of tenders call against him, he neither terrifies by their voice nor humbles himself for the multitude: thus Yah Veh Sabaoth descends to fight for mount Siyon and for the hill.

⁴ who lie on beds of ivory and spread themselves on their bedsteads; and eat the rams from the flock and the calves from midst the stall;

² And if they dig into sheol my hand takes them from there; and if they ascend to the heavens I bring them down from there: ³ and if they hide in the top of Karmel/orchard I search and take them from there; and if they hide from my eyes in the floor of the sea I misvah the serpent to bite them there;

⁴ But what words the oracle to him? I leave to myself seven thousand men, who bow not the knee to Baal. ^{1 Kings 19:18 5} Thus also at this present season, there is a remnant according to the selection by charism:

¹⁹ And so be it, if in forgetting, you forget Yah Veh your Elohim and walk after other elohim and serve them and prostrate to them, I witness against you this day that in destructing, you destruct.

¹⁸ I tell you this day, that in destructing, you destruct; and that you not prolong your days on the soil you pass over Yarden to go to possess. ¹⁹ I call the heavens and earth to witness this day against you, that I give at your face life and death, blessing and abasement: choose life, so that both you and your seed live:

²² El of elohim - Yah Veh El of elohim - Yah Veh - he knows - and Yisra El he knows - if in rebellion - if in treason against Yah Veh you save us not this day

¹³ And Yah Veh witnesses against Yisra El and against Yah Hudah, by the hand of all the prophets and by all the seers, saying, Turn from your evil ways and guard my misvoth and my statutes, according to all the torah I misvahed your fathers - which I send to you by the hand of my servants the prophets.

¹⁵ and they refuse his statutes and his covenant which he cut with their fathers and his witnesses which he witnessed against them; and they go after vanity and become vain and go after the goyim all around them - to whom Yah Veh misvahed to not work like them:

¹⁹ and he sends prophets among them to return them to Yah Veh: and they witness against them; but they hearken not.

²⁴ - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh Sabaoth the Almighty of Yisra El. Ho, I sigh over my tribulators and avenge me of my enemies:

⁷ and you, word my words to them, whether they hear or whether they desist: for they are most rebellious.

²⁷ So I exile you beyond Dammeseq, says Yah Veh, whose name is Elohim Sabaoth.

⁴⁰ And he witnesses and beseeches with many other words, wording, You, be saved from this crooked generation.

⁵ And when both Silas and Timo Theos come down from Macedonia, Paulos is held in the spirit, and witnesses to the Yah Hudiym that Yah Shua is the Messiah. ⁶ And when they oppose and blaspheme, he shakes his garment, and says to them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am pure; from now on I go to the goyim.

²¹ - witnessing both to the Yah Hudiym and to the Hellenes repentance to Elohim, and trust to our Adonay Yah Shua Messiah.

¹⁷
THE UNHOLY LIFE
So I word this, and witness in Adonay, to no longer walk exactly as the rest of the goyim in the vanity of their mind;

⁶ so that no one oversteps and defrauds his brother in any matter: because Adonay is the avenger concerning all such, exactly as we also foretold you and witness.ed

³⁴ and now, go, lead the people to the place I worded to you: behold, my Angel goes at your face: in the day I visit, I visit their sin on them.

² and he calls out against the sacrifice altar in the word of Yah Veh, and says, Sacrifice altar! Sacrifice altar! Thus says Yah Veh: Behold, a son is birthed to the house of David, Yoshi Yah by name; and on you he sacrifices the priests of the bamahs who incense upon you; and burn human bones upon you. ³ And that same day, he gives an omen, saying, This is the omen Yah Veh words; Behold, the sacrifice altar is ripped, and the fat thereon, poured out. ⁴ And so be it, sovereign Yarob Am hears the word of the man of Elohim who calls out against the sacrifice altar in Beth El, and he sends his hand from the sacrifice altar, saying, Apprehend him. And the hand he sends against him withers so that he cannot turn it back to him: ⁵ and the sacrifice altar rips and the fat pours from the sacrifice altar according to the omen the man of Elohim gives by the word of Yah Veh.

¹⁵ and also the sacrifice altar at Beth El and the bamah Yarob Am the son of Nebat, who had Yisra El sin, worked, both that sacrifice altar and the bamah he pulls down and burns the bamah and pulverizes to dust and burns the asherah.

¹
YISRA EL DESTROYS THE MONOLITHS, ASHERIM, AND BAMAHS
And all this is finished, all the Yisra Eliy they find go to the cities of Yah Hudah and break the monoliths and cut down the asherim and pull down the bamahs and the sacrifice altars from all Yah Hudah and Ben Yamin and in Ephrayim and Menash Sheh until they finish them off: and all the sons of Yisra El return, every man to his possession, to their own cities.

⁶ - and in the cities of Menash Sheh and Ephrayim and Shimon - even to Naphtali, with their swords all around: ⁷ and he pulls down the sacrifice altars and the asherim; and crushes and pulverizes the sculptiles; and cuts down all the sun icons throughout all the land of Yisra El: and he returns to Yeru Shalem.

⁵ the fellow tabernaclers of Shomeron sojourn because of the heifers of Beth Aven: for the people mourn over it; and the ascetics twirl on it: for the honor is exiled from it: ⁶ also it is borne to Ashshur as an offering to sovereign Yareb to plead: Ephrayim shames and Yisra El shames of his own counsel. ⁷ As for Shomeron, her sovereign is severed as the raging on the face of the water. ⁸ And the bamahs of Aven, the sin of Yisra El, desolates: the thorn and the thistle ascend on their sacrifice altars; and they say to the mountains, Cover us! and to the hills, Fall on us!

¹⁴ And an uproar rises among your people; and ravages all your fortresses as Shalman ravaged Beth Arb El in the day of war: - the mother splattered on her sons. ¹⁵ Thus Beth El works to you at the face of the evil of your evil: in the dawn in severing, sever the sovereign of Yisra El.

⁵ neither seek Beth El nor enter Gilgal nor pass through Beer Sheba: for in exiling, Gilgal is exiled, and Beth El becomes for mischief. ⁶ Seek Yah Veh, and live; lest he prospers as fire in the house of Yoseph and consumes; and no one in Beth El to quench it.

¹
JUDGMENT OF YAH VEH
I see Adonay stationed on the sacrifice altar; and he says, Smite the lintel of the door, so as to quake the thresholds: and crop them in the head - all of them; and I slaughter the last of them with the sword: and he who flees, flees not to them, and the escapee escapes not to them.

⁶ I set Shomeron as a heap of the field - as plantings of a vineyard: and I pour the stones into the valley and I expose the foundations; ⁷ and crush all the sculptiles and burn all the payoffs with the fire and desolate all the idols; for she gathers from the payoff of a whore and to the payoff of a whore they return:

²⁰ And Ehud comes to him; and he settles in an upper room of cooling which he has for himself alone. And Ehud says, I have a word from Elohim to you! - and he rises from his throne.

³⁹ And the rest of the words of Ach Ab and all he worked and the ivory house he built and all the cities he built are they not inscribed in the scroll of the words of the days of the sovereigns of Yisra El?

⁸ all your clothes of myrrh and aloes and cassia - from the manses of ivory - whose strummings cheer you.

⁹ In my ears, Yah Veh Sabaoth, surely many houses become desolate - great and good, without settler.

²² and the sovereign is sitting in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and the hearth burns at his face.

¹¹ So thus says Adonay Yah Veh: A tribulator surrounds the land and he brings down your strength and plunders your citadels.

¹¹ For, behold, Yah Veh misvahs; and he smites the great house with dewdrops and the little house with fissures:
