Isaiah 56 Cross References - ECB

¹
SALVATION FOR ALL
Thus says Yah Veh, You, guard judgment and work justness; for my salvation comes near and to expose my justness. ² Blithesome - the man who works this and the son of humanity who lays hold thereon; who guards from profaning the shabbath and guards his hand from working any evil. ³ Neither let the son of the stranger, who joins himself to Yah Veh, say, saying, In separating, Yah Veh separated me from his people: nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. ⁴ For thus says Yah Veh to the eunuchs who guard my shabbaths and choose what delights me and hold my covenant; ⁵ I give them in my house and within my walls a hand and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I give them an eternal name that is not cut off. ⁶ And sons of the stranger who join themselves to Yah Veh to minister to him and to love the name of Yah Veh - to be his servants, every one who guards from profaning the shabbath and holds my covenant; ⁷ I bring them to my holy mountain, and cheer them in my house of prayer: their holocausts and their sacrifices are a pleasure on my sacrifice altar; for my house is called a house of my prayer for all people ⁸ - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh who gather the overthrown of Yisra El: again I gather to him - to his gathered ones. ⁹ All you live beings of the field, come to devour - all you live beings in the forest. ¹⁰ His watchers are blind; they know not: they are all mute dogs; they cannot bark: dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber. ¹¹ Yes, they are dogs, strong of soul, who know not satisfaction; and they are tenders who know not to discern: they all face their own way, every man for his gain, from his end. ¹² You, come; I take wine, and we carouse with intoxicants; and tomorrow is as this day - a mighty great remainder.

⁴ He who has innocent palms and a pure heart; - who neither lifts his soul to vanity nor oaths deceitfully: ⁵ he lifts a blessing from Yah Veh and justness from Elohim of his salvation. ⁶ This is the generation of seekers who seek your face, O Yaaqov. Selah.

²³ Whoever sacrifices spread hands honors me; and he who sets his way I have see the salvation of Elohim.

⁹ Surely his salvation is near them who awe him; whose honor tabernacles in our land.

¹⁶ Baptize yourself; purify yourself; turn aside the evil of your exploitations from in front of my eyes: cease to vilify; ¹⁷ learn to well-please; seek judgment; blithe the oppressed; judge the orphan; plead for the widow. ¹⁸ Come, I beseech, and we reason, says Yah Veh: though your sins be as scarlet, they whiten as snow; though they be reddened like crimson, they be as wool. ¹⁹ If you so will and hearken, you eat the good of the land:

⁷ The way of the just is straightness: you, O straight, weigh the route of the just. ⁸ Yes, in the way of your judgments, O Yah Veh, we await you; the desire of our soul is to your name and to your memorial.

¹³ I bring my justness near; it is not far removed; and delay not my salvation: and I place salvation in Siyon for Yisra El my adornment.

⁵ My justness is near; my salvation and my arms go forth; they judge the people; the islands await me and on my arm they await.

⁷ the wicked forsake his way; and the man of mischief, his fabrications: and he returns to Yah Veh, and he mercies him; and to our Elohim, for he abounds to forgive.

³ thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth the Elohim of Yisra El, Well-prepare your ways and your exploits, and I tabernacle you in this place. ⁴ Confide not in false words, saying, The manse of Yah Veh! The manse of Yah Veh! The manse of Yah Veh are they! ⁵ For if, in well-preparing, you well-prepare your ways and your exploitations; if in working, you work judgment between a man and his friend; ⁶ if you oppress not the sojourner, the orphan, and the widow, and pour not innocent blood in this place, and walk not after other elohim to your evil: ⁷ then I tabernacle you in this place in the land I gave to your fathers eternally and eternally. ⁸ Behold, you confide in false words that benefit not; ⁹ you steal, murder, and adulterize, and oath falsely and incense to Baal; and walk after other elohim whom you know not: ¹⁰ and then you come and stand at my face in this house on which my name is called, and say, We are rescued! in order to work all these abhorrences. ¹¹ Becomes this house, on which my name is called, a cave of tyrants in your eyes? Behold, even I see - an oracle of Yah Veh.

⁴ Remember the torah of Mosheh my servant, that I misvahed to him in Horeb for all Yisra El, the statutes and judgments.

² and wording, Repent! For the sovereigndom of the the heavens approaches.

¹⁷
YAH SHUA PREACHES, REPENT!
From that time Yah Shua begins to preach and to word, Repent! For the sovereigndom of the the heavens approaches.

¹⁵ and wording, The season fulfills/shalams, and the sovereigndom of Elohim approaches: repent, and trust in the evangelism.

³ and he goes to all the region around Yarden preaching the baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins ⁴ - as scribed in the scroll of the words of Yesha Yah the prophet, wording, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way of Yah Veh, make his paths straight. ⁵ Every valley is filled, and every mountain and hill humbled; and the crooked made into straight, and the jagged ways made smooth; ⁶ and all flesh sees the salvation of Elohim. ^{Isaiah 40:3-5 7} So he words to the multitude who proceed to be baptized by him, O progeny of vipers, who exemplifies you to flee the wrath about to be? ⁸ So produce fruits worthy of repentance: and begin not to word within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father. For I word to you, that Elohim is able, from these stones, to raise children to Abraham. ⁹ And also the axe is already laid to the root of the trees: so that every tree not producing good fruit is exscinded, and cast into the fire.

¹⁷ whenever anyone wills to do his will, he knows concerning the doctrine - whether it be of Elohim, or whether I speak of myself.

¹⁷ For therein is the justness of Elohim unveiled from trust to trust: exactly as scribed, The just live by trust. ^{Habakkuk 2:4}

⁶ And the justness of trust words thus, Say not in your heart, Who ascends to the heavens? - that is, to bring Messiah: ⁷ or, Who descends to the abyss? that is, to bring Messiah from the dead. ⁸ But what words it? The rhema is near you - in your mouth and in your heart: that is, the rhema of trust, that we preach; ^{Deuteronomy 30:12-14 9} so that whenever you profess Adonay Yah Shua in your mouth and trust in your heart that Elohim raised him from the dead, you become saved. ¹⁰ For with the heart, trust is to justness; and with the mouth, profession is to salvation.

¹¹ And this: knowing the season, that it is already the hour to rise from sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we trusted. ¹² The night advances, the day approaches: so put off the works of darkness and endue the weapon of light. ¹³ Walk decorously as in the day; not in carousing and intoxication; not in coition and lechery; not in contention and zeal; ¹⁴ but endue Adonay Yah Shua Messiah and make no provision for the flesh to do its pantings.

⁸ Remember the shabbath day, to hallow it:

¹⁰ but the seventh day is the shabbath of Yah Veh your Elohim: work no work therein; neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your servant, nor your maid, nor your animals, nor your sojourner within your portals:

¹³ Word also to the sons of Yisra El, saying, Only, guard my shabbaths: for it is a sign between me and between you throughout your generations; that you know I - Yah Veh hallow you: ¹⁴ guard the shabbath; for it is holy to you: everyone who profanes it, in deathifiying, is deathified: for whoever works any work therein, that soul becomes cut off from among his people. ¹⁵ Six days you work your work; the seventh day is the shabbath of shabbathism - holy to Yah Veh: whoever works any work in the shabbath day, in deathifiying, deathify him. ¹⁶ And the sons of Yisra El guard the shabbath, to work the shabbath throughout their generations, for an eternal covenant

³⁰ Guard my shabbaths and awe my holies: I - Yah Veh.

¹⁷ And I contend with the nobles of Yah Hudah and say to them, What evil word is this that you work and profane the shabbath day?

BOOK I
Blithe - the man who neither walks in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor settles in the settlement of the scornful. ² But his delight is in the torah of Yah Veh; and in his torah he meditates day and night; ³ and being as a tree transplanted by the rivulets of water, giving his fruit in his time: his leaf withers not; and whatever he works, prospers.

¹ A Psalm by David. Yah Veh, Who sojourns in your tent? Who tabernacles in your holy mountain? ² He who walks integriously and does justness and words the truth in his heart. ³ He neither steps with his tongue nor works evil to his friend nor lifts a reproach against his neighbour. ⁴ His eyes despise a spurner but honor them who awe Yah Veh. He who oaths to villify, and changes not; ⁵ he neither gives his silver to usury nor takes bribe against the innocent; he who works these totters not eternally.

¹⁴ turn from evil and work good; seek shalom and pursue it.

²⁷ Turn from evil and work good; and tabernacle eternally.

³ Blithe - they who guard judgment who work justness at all times.

¹ Halalu Yah! Blithe - the man who awes Yah Veh - who delights mightily in his misvoth.

¹ ALEPH. 1 Blithed - the integrious in the way, who walk in the torah of Yah Veh: ² blithed - they who guard his witnesses - who seek him with the whole heart: ³ they do no wickedness; they walk in his ways. ⁴ You misvahed us to guard your precepts mightily. ⁵ O that I prepared my ways to guard your statutes!

¹⁰¹ I restrain my feet from every evil way to guard your word:

¹ A Song of Degrees. Blithed - every one who awes Yah Veh; who walks in his ways:

¹³ Uphold discipline; let not go: guard her; for she is your life:

²⁷ spread neither to the right nor to the left; turn aside your foot from evil.

¹⁶ The wise awes and turns aside from evil; and the fool passes on, confident.

⁶ By mercy and truth iniquity kapars/atones; and by the awe of Yah Veh evil turns aside.

¹⁷ The highway of the straight is to turn aside from evil; he who guards his way guards his soul.

¹⁸ It is good to take hold of this; yes, also leave not your hand from this; for he who awes Elohim, goes out with them all.

⁴ For thus says Yah Veh to the eunuchs who guard my shabbaths and choose what delights me and hold my covenant;

⁶ And sons of the stranger who join themselves to Yah Veh to minister to him and to love the name of Yah Veh - to be his servants, every one who guards from profaning the shabbath and holds my covenant;

¹³ If you turn away your foot from the shabbath from working your delight on my holy day; and call the shabbath, a luxury and the holy of Yah Veh, honorable and honor him; neither working your own ways nor finding your own delight nor wording your own words,

²¹ Thus says Yah Veh, Guard your souls; and neither bear a burden on the shabbath day nor bring it in by the portals of Yeru Shalem: ²² neither carry forth a burden from your houses on the shabbath day nor work any work; but hallow the shabbath day as I misvahed your fathers:

¹² and also, I give them my shabbaths, to become a sign between me and between them so that they know that I Yah Veh hallow them.

²⁰ and hallow my shabbaths; to become a sign between me and between you, so that you know I - Yah Veh your Elohim.

²⁸ But he says, Still rather, blessed - whoever hear the word of Elohim and guard it.

⁴³ Blessed - that servant, whom, when his adoni comes, finds doing thus.

¹⁷ If you know these, blessed - whenever you do them.

⁹ Love, eunhypocritical; abhor evil; adhere to good;

¹⁴
THE SEVENTH BEATITUDE
Blessed - whoever does his misvoth; that they have authority to the staff of life and enter the city through the gates.

⁴ and they join you and guard the guard of the tent of the congregation, for all the service of the tent so that no stranger approaches you:

⁷ And you, with your sons, guard your priesthood for every word of the sacrifice altar and the housing of the veil - and you serve: I give you priesthood, a service of gift: and deathify the stranger who approaches.

¹
THE TORAH ON CONGREGATIONAL EXCLUSIONS He who is wounded or castrated or has his penis cut off enters not to the congregation of Yah Veh: ² a bastard enters not to the congregation of Yah Veh - even to his tenth generation enters not to the congregation of Yah Veh: ³ an Ammoniy or Moabiy enters not to the congregation of Yah Veh - even to their tenth generation enter not to the congregation of Yah Veh eternally:

¹
YAH VEH MERCIES YAAQOV
Because Yah Veh mercies Yaaqov, and yet chooses Yisra El, and sets them in their own soil: and the sojourners join with them and scrape them to the house of Yaaqov:

⁷ And of your sons who issue from you, whom you birthed, they take away to become eunuchs in the manse of the sovereign of Babel.

⁵ I give them in my house and within my walls a hand and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I give them an eternal name that is not cut off.

⁷ And Ebed Melech the Kushiy a man of the eunuchs in the house of the sovereign hears that they give Yirme Yah in the well; and the sovereign sits in the portal of Ben Yamin: ⁸ Ebed Melech comes from the house of the sovereign and words to the sovereign, saying, ⁹ O my adoni sovereign, these men vilify in all that they work to Yirme Yah the prophet - whom they cast into the well to die at the face of famine in the place where he is: for there is no more bread in the city. ¹⁰ And the sovereign misvahs Ebed Melech the Kushiy, saying, Take from here thirty men under your hand, and ascend Yirme Yah the prophet from the well ere he die. ¹¹ So Ebed Melech takes the men under his hand and goes into the house of the sovereign under the treasury, and takes decayed rags and decayed rotten rags and sends them down by cords into the well to Yirme Yah. ¹² And Ebed Melech the Kushiy says to Yirme Yah, Set, I beseech, these decayed rags and rotten rags under the elbow holes for your hands under the cords. - and Yirme Yah works thus. ¹³ And they draw up Yirme Yah with cords and ascend him from the well: and Yirme Yah settles in the court of the target area.

¹⁶ Go and say to Ebed Melech the Kushiy, saying, Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth Elohim of Yisra El: Behold, I bring my words on this city for evil and not for good; to be at your face in that day: ¹⁷ and I rescue you in that day - an oracle of Yah Veh and give you not into the hand of the men you fear to face.

⁵ they ask the way to Siyon with their faces toward, Come; we join ourselves to Yah Veh in an eternal covenant, not forgotten.

NEBUKADNETS TSAR CHOOSES SONS OF YISRA EL FOR SERVICE
And the sovereign says to Ashpenaz the rabbi of his eunuchs, to bring of the sons of Yisra El and of seed of the sovereign and of the nobles; ⁴ children in whom is no blemish - and of good visage and comprehending in all wisdom and knowing in knowledge and discerning in knowledge; and such as have inner force to stand in the manse of the sovereign; and to teach them the scrolls and the tongue of the Kesediym. ⁵ And the sovereign numbers them a day by day word of the delicacies of the sovereign, and of the wine he drinks: thus nourishing them three years; so that at the end they stand at the face of the sovereign. ⁶ Among these, of the sons of Yah Hudah, Dani El, Hanan Yah, Misha El, and Azar Yah: ⁷ to whom the governor of the eunuchs set names: and he sets to Dani El, Belte Shats Tsar; and to Hanan Yah, Shadrach; and to Misha El, Meshach; and to Azar Yah, Abed Nego. ⁸ And Dani El sets in his heart to not profane with the delicacies of the sovereign or with the wine he drinks: and he beseeches the governor of the eunuchs that he not profane: ⁹ and Elohim gives Dani El mercy and mercies at the face of the governor of the eunuchs. ¹⁰ And the governor of the eunuchs says to Dani El, I fear my adoni the sovereign who numbers your food and your drink: for why sees he your faces enraged more than the children of your circle? You have me owe my head to the sovereign. ¹¹ And Dani El says to the steward whom the governor of the eunuchs numbers over Dani El, Hanan Yah, Misha El, and Azar Yah, ¹² Test your servants, I beseech you, ten days; have them give us herbs to eat and water to drink: ¹³ then, at your face, see our visages and the visage of the children who eat of the delicacies of the sovereign: and work with your servants as you see fit. ¹⁴ And he hearkens to them in this word and tests them ten days: ¹⁵ and at the end of ten days they see their visages better and fatter in flesh than all the children who eat the delicacies of the sovereign. ¹⁶ And the steward lifts their delicacies and the wine they drink; and gives them herbs. ¹⁷ As for these four children, Elohim gives them knowledge and comprehension in all scrolls and wisdom: and Dani El discerns all visions and dreams. ¹⁸ And at the end of the days the sovereign says to bring them in: and the governor of the eunuchs brings them in at the face of Nebukadnets Tsar: ¹⁹ and the sovereign words with them: and among them all, no one was found as Dani El, Hanan Yah, Misha El, and Azar Yah: and they stand at the face of the sovereign. ²⁰ And in all words of wisdom and of discernment the sovereign beseeches of them he finds them ten hands better than all the horoscopists and enchanters in all his sovereigndom: ²¹ and Dani El continues to the first year of sovereign Koresh.

¹¹ Yah Veh is awesome against them: for he emaciates all the elohim of the earth; and every man prostrates to him from his place - all the islands of the goyim.

²⁰ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: People and settlers of many cities still come: ²¹ and the settlers of one come to one, saying, We go speedily to stroke the face of Yah Veh and to seek Yah Veh Sabaoth: I go - even I. ²² Yes, many people and mighty goyim come to seek Yah Veh Sabaoth in Yeru Shalem and to stroke the face of Yah Veh. ²³ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: In those days, so be it, ten men from all tongues of the goyim, take hold - even take hold of the wing of a man - a Yah Hudiy, saying, We go with you: for we hear that Elohim is with you.

¹⁰ And Yah Shua hears, and marvels; and says to them who follow, Amen! I word to you, I find not this much trust - no, not even in Yisra El: ¹¹ and I word to you, that many come from the rising and the lowering and recline with Abraham and Yischaq and Yaaqov in the sovereigndom of the heavens:

²⁶ But he answers, saying, It is not good to take the bread of children and to cast it to puppies. ²⁷ And she says, Yes, Adonay: yet indeed the puppies eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their adoni.

¹²
EUNUCHS
For there are eunuchs thus birthed from the womb of their mother: and there are eunuchs eunuchized by humanity: and there are eunuchs eunuchized by themselves for sake of the sovereigndom of the heavens. Whoever is able to accept, accept. ¹³
YAH SHUA RECEIVES LITTLE CHILDREN
Then they offer him little children to put his hands on, and pray: and the disciples rebuke them. ¹⁴ But Yah Shua says, Allow little children; and forbid them not to come to me: for of such is the sovereigndom of the heavens. ¹⁵ - and he puts his hands on them and departs. ¹⁶
ETERNAL LIFE
And behold, one comes to him, saying, Good Doctor, what good do I to have eternal life? ¹⁷ And he says to him, Why word you me, good? None is good except one - Elohim: but if you will to enter life, guard the misvoth. ¹⁸ He words to him, Which? Yah Shua says, Murder not: Adulterize not: Steal not: Pseudo witness not: ¹⁹ Honor your father and your mother: and, Love your neighbor as yourself. ²⁰ The youth words to him, I guarded all these from my youth: What lack I still? ²¹ Yah Shua says to him, If you will to be complete/at shalom, go and sell what you have and give to the poor; and have treasure in the heavens: and come and follow me. ²² But the youth hears that word, and goes away sorrowful: for he has vast possessions. ²³
THE RICH AND THE SOVEREIGNDOM
So Yah Shua says to his disciples, Amen! I word to you, That a rich man difficultly enters the sovereigndom of the heavens. ²⁴ And again I word to you, It is easier for a rope ^* to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the sovereigndom of Elohim. ^{*rope: see Lamsa 25} When his disciples hear, they are extremely astonished, wording, Who then can be saved? ²⁶ But Yah Shua looks, and says, With humanity this is impossible; but with Elohim all are possible. ²⁷
THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP
Then Petros answers him, saying, Behold, we forsook all, and follow you; what then, have we? ²⁸ And Yah Shua say to them, Amen! I word to you - to you who follow me: In the regenesis, when the Son of humanity sits on the throne of his glory, you also sit on twelve thrones judging the twelve scions of Yisra El: ²⁹ and everyone who forsakes houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or woman or children or lands for sake of my name; takes a hundredfold and inherits eternal life: ³⁰ but many who are first become final; and the final first.

⁶ And Yah Shua goes with them: and when he is already not far from the house the centurion sends friends to him, wording to him, Adonay, harass not yourself for I am not adequate that you enter under my thatch: ⁷ so I deem myself not worthy to come to you: but say in a word, and my lad is healed. ⁸ - for I also am a human ordained under authority having warriors under me: and I word to this one, Go! - and he goes; and to another, Come! - and he comes; and to my servant, Do this! - and he does.

²⁶
PHILIPPOS AND THE ETHIOPIAN
And the angel of Yah Veh speaks to Philippos, wording, Rise, and go toward the midday to the way that descends from Yeru Shalem - to Azzah - this is desolate. ²⁷ And he rises and goes: and behold, a man - an Ethiopian eunuch - a dynast under Candace sovereigness of the Ethiopians who has the charge of all her treasure, and he comes to Yeru Shalem to worship; ²⁸ and in returning; sits on his chariot reading Yesha Yah the prophet. ²⁹ And the Spirit says to Philippos, Go near, and join yourself to this chariot. ³⁰ And Philippos runs, and hears him read the prophet Yesha Yah, and says, Yet indeed, know you then what you read? ³¹ And he says, Indeed, how can I, unless someone guides me? - and he beseeches Philippos to ascend and sit with him. ³² The passage of the scripture he reads is this: He is led as a sheep to the slaughter; and as a lamb voiceless in front of his shearer, thus he opens not his mouth: ³³ in his humiliation his judgment is taken away: And who declares his generation? - for his life is taken from the earth. ^{Isaiah 53:7, 8 34} And the eunuch answers Philippos, saying, I petition you, concerning whom words the prophet this? Concerning himself? Or concerning some other? ³⁵ And Philippos opens his mouth and begins from the same scripture and preaches Yah Shua to him: ³⁶ and as they go their way, they come to a water: and the eunuch says, Behold, water! What forbids me to be baptized? ³⁷ And Philippos says, If you trust from all your heart, you are allowed. And he answers, saying, I trust that Yah Shua Messiah is the Son of Elohim. ³⁸ And he summons the chariot to stand: and they both descend into the water - both Philippos and the eunuch; and he baptizes him. ³⁹ And when they ascend from the water the Spirit of Yah Veh seizes Philippos so that the eunuch sees him no more: and indeed he goes on his way cheering. ⁴⁰ But Philippos is found at Ashdod: and passing through he evangelizes in all the cities until he comes to Kaisaria.

¹
THE VISION OF CORNELIUS
But there is a man in Kaisaria named Cornelius - a centurion of the squad called Italian; ² well revered, and one who awes Elohim with all his house; who does many mercies to the people; and petitions to Elohim continually.

³⁴
THE FOURTH MESSAGE OF PETROS
And Petros opens his mouth, and says, Of a truth I overtake that Elohim is not partial:

⁴⁷ for thus Yah Veh misvahed us: I place you, a light of the goyim, to be to salvation to the finality of the earth. ^{Isaiah 42:6,7 48} And the goyim hear this and they cheer and glorify the word of Adonay: and as many as are ordained to eternal life, trust:

⁴ And some of them confide and associate with Paulos and Silas - with a vast multitude of the venerating Hellenes and of the preeminent women not a few:

⁷ - and he departs thence. And he comes to the house of one named Justus - who venerates Elohim, whose house joins the synagogue.

¹⁰ and glory, honor and shalom, to everyone who works good - both to the Yah Hudiy first and also to the Hellene: ¹¹ for there is no partiality with Elohim.

⁹ and that the goyim glorify Elohim for his mercy; exactly as scribed, For this cause I avow to you among the goyim and psalm to your name. ^{Psalm 18:49 10} And again he words, Rejoice, you goyim, with his people. ^{Deuteronomy 32:43 11} And again, Halalu Yah, all you goyim; and halal him, all you people. ¹² And again, Yesha Yah words, And so be it, a root of Yishay; and he rises to rule over the goyim: in him the goyim hope. ^{Psalm 18:49, 117:1, Isaiah 11:1,10, 42:6,7}

¹⁶ being the liturgist of Yah Shua Messiah to the goyim, priesting the evangelism of Elohim, so that the offering of the goyim is well-received, being hallowed by the Holy Spirit.

¹⁷ And whoever joins Adonay is one spirit.

¹² that at that season you, being apart from Messiah, being alienated from the citizenship of Yisra El; strangers from the covenants of the pre-evangelism having no hope and atheist in the cosmos:

²² in whom you also are co-settled for a settlement of Elohim in Spirit.

¹
SALUTATION
Petros, an apostle of Yah Shua Messiah: To the pilgrim diaspora throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Biyournia,

¹⁵ and if it vilify your eyes to serve Yah Veh, choose you this day whomever you serve - whether the elohim your fathers served beyond the river; or the elohim of the Emoriy in whose land you settle: but as for me and my house, we serve Yah Veh.

⁵ Although my house is not so with El; yet he set an eternal covenant with me - aligned in all and guarded: for this is all my salvation and all my delight, although he sprouts it not.

¹¹¹ I inherited your witnesses eternally - the rejoicing of my heart:

⁵ Or that he uphold my stronghold to work shalom with me: he works shalom with me.

³ Spread your ear, and come to me; hear, and your soul lives; and I cut an eternal covenant with you - the trustworthy mercies of David.

² Blithesome - the man who works this and the son of humanity who lays hold thereon; who guards from profaning the shabbath and guards his hand from working any evil.

⁴² but one is needful: and Miryam selects that good part, not to be removed from her.

¹⁷ Wherein Elohim willed more superabundantly to show the heirs of pre-evangelism the immutability of his counsel, he confirmed it by an oath:

⁸ And El Qanah her man says to her, Hannah, why weep you? aAnd why eat you not? And why villify your heart? Am not I better to thee than ten sons?

¹
SONG OF THE LAND OF YAH HUDAH
In that day, this song is sung in the land of Yah Hudah: A strong city, we; he places salvation for walls and trenches.

¹⁹ and your seed as the sand; and the offspring of your inwards as the belly; and his name, neither cut off nor destroyed from my face.

¹³ Instead of the thorn, the fir tree ascends, and instead of the brier, the myrtle tree ascends: and it becomes to Yah Veh for a name, for an eternal sign, not cut off.

¹⁸ Violence is heard no more in your land or ravage or breaking within your borders; and you call your walls, Salvation, and your portals, Halal.

¹² And they call them, Holy People, Redeemed of Yah Veh: and call you, Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.

¹⁸ And I also word to you, that you are Petros/Rock: and on this rock/petra I build my ecclesia; and the gates of sheol/hades overpower it not:

¹²
THE ELOHIM BIRTH
But as many as take him he gives authority to become the children of Elohim - to them who trust in his name:

¹⁵ but whenever I delay, you know how you must behave yourself in the house of El - the ecclesia of the living Elohim the pillar and ground of the truth.

⁶ And Messiah, as a son over his own house: whose house we are; whenever we hold down the boldness and the boasting of the hope steadfast to the completion/shalom.

¹
THE LOVE OF THE FATHER
Perceive! What manner of love the Father gives us - to be called the children of Elohim: because of this, the cosmos knows us not, because it knew him not.

⁵ Whoever triumphs arrays in white garments: and I never no way erase his name from the scroll of life, and I confess his name in sight of my Father and in sight of his angels.

¹² Whoever triumphs I make a pillar in the nave of my Elohim; and he never no way still goes out: and I scribe on him the name of my Elohim and the name of the city of my Elohim - the new Yeru Shalem descending from the heavens from my Elohim and my new name.

⁵ One says, I - Yah Veh: and another calls by the name of Yaaqov: and another inscribes with his hand to Yah Veh and by an honorary degree, the name of Yisra El.

² Blithesome - the man who works this and the son of humanity who lays hold thereon; who guards from profaning the shabbath and guards his hand from working any evil. ³ Neither let the son of the stranger, who joins himself to Yah Veh, say, saying, In separating, Yah Veh separated me from his people: nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. ⁴ For thus says Yah Veh to the eunuchs who guard my shabbaths and choose what delights me and hold my covenant;

¹⁰ And the sons of strangers build your walls and their sovereigns minister to you: for in my rage I smote you and in my pleasure I mercied you:

⁵ And strangers stand and tend your flocks, and the sons of the stranger are your cultivators and your vinedressers:

³⁰ and, Love Yah Veh your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength: this is the first misvah. ³¹ And the second is like, Love your neighbor as yourself. No other misvah is greater than these. ^{Deuteronomy 6:4, 5, Leviticus 19:8 32} And the scribe says to him, Well, Doctor! You say the truth! For there is one Elohim; and there is no other but he. ³³ and to love him with all the heart and with all the comprehension and with all the soul and with all the strength and to love his neighbor as himself is much more than all whole holocausts and sacrifices. ³⁴ And Yah Shua sees that he answers mindfully, and says to him, You are not far from the sovereigndom of Elohim. - and after that no one dares ask him any question.

⁴¹
THE FIRST ECCLESIA
So indeed they who receive his word with pleasure are baptized; and about three thousand souls are added that day:

²³ - who, when he comes and sees the charism of Elohim, cheers, and beseeches them all, that with prothesis of heart, they abide in Adonay.

²⁸ And we know that all co-works to good to them who love Elohim, to them being the called according to his prothesis.

²² If anyone befriends not Adonay Yah Shua Messiah, have him be anathema. Maranatha!

⁵ And not exactly as we hoped, but first they gave their own selves to Adonay and to us through the will of Elohim.

⁶ For in Yah Shua Messiah neither is circumcision of any ability, nor uncircumcision; but trust, that energizes through love.

²⁴ Charism be with all those who love our Adonay Yah Shua Messiah in incorruptibility. Amen.

⁹ For they themselves evangelize of us what manner of entrance we had to you; and how you turned from idols to Elohim to serve the living and true Elohim; ¹⁰ and to await his Son from the heavens - Yah Shua - whom he raised from the dead who rescued us from the wrath to come.

¹² Blessed - the man who endures testing: because being approved he takes the wreath of life - which Adonay pre-evangelized to them who love him.

⁵ Hearken, my beloved brothers, Selects not Elohim the poor of this cosmos rich in trust and heirs of the sovereigndom which he pre-evangelized to them who love him?

¹⁰ I became in Spirit in the day of Adonay; and heard behind me a mega voice as of a trumpet,

⁶ And I - I anointed my sovereign on my holy mount Siyon;

² and so be it, in the last days, the mountain of the house of Yah Veh is established in the top of the mountains, and lifted above the hills; and all goyim flow to it. ³ And many people go and say, Come, and we ascend to the mountain of Yah Veh - to the house of Elohim of Yaaqov: and he teaches us of his ways, and we walk in his paths: for from Siyon the torah goes forth, and the word of Yah Veh from Yeru Shalem.

¹⁹ and I set a sign among them; and I send the escapees to the goyim - to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud - who draw the bow, - to Tubal, and Yavan - to the islands afar, who neither heard my fame nor saw my honor; and they tell my honor among the goyim: ²⁰ and they bring all your brothers for an offering to Yah Veh - from all goyim on horses and in chariots and in palanquins and on mules and on prancers to my holy mountain Yeru Shalem, says Yah Veh; as the sons of Yisra El bring an offering in a pure instrument into the house of Yah Veh.

¹
THE SOVEREIGNDOM OF THE FINAL DAYS
And so be it, in the final days, the mountain of the house of Yah Veh is established in the top of the mountains and lifted above the hills; and people flow into it. ² And many goyim come, and say, Come! Ascend to the mountain of Yah Veh and to the house of Elohim of Yaaqov; and he teaches us of his ways and we walk in his paths: for from Siyon comes a torah and the word of Yah Veh from Yeru Shalem:

³ Thus says Yah Veh: I return to Siyon, and tabernacle midst Yeru Shalem: and call Yeru Shalem, The City of Truth; and the mountain of Yah Veh Sabaoth, The Holy Mountain.

¹¹ For from the rising of the sun even to the entry of the same my name is great among the goyim; and in every place incense is brought to my name, and a pure offering: for my name is great among the goyim, says Yah Veh Sabaoth.

¹³ And words to them, It is scribed, My house is called the house of prayer; but you make it a grotto of robbers. ^{Isaiah 56:7}

¹⁷ And he doctrinates them, wording, Is it not scribed, My house is called by all goyim the house of prayer? And you make it a grotto of robbers. ^{Isaiah 56:7, Jeremiah 7:11}

⁴⁶ wording to them, It is scribed, My house is the house of prayer: but you make it a grotto of robbers.

²¹ Yah Shua words to her, Woman, trust me, the hour comes, when you neither in this mountain nor in Yeru Shalem worship the Father: ²² you worship what you know not; we worship what we know: for salvation is of the Yah Hudiym. ²³ But an hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.

²⁰
HELLENES WILL TO SEE YAH SHUA
And some Hellenes ascend to worship at the celebration: ²¹ so they come to Philippos who is of Beth Sayad, Galiyl, and ask him, wording, Adoni, we will to see Yah Shua. ²² Philippos goes and words to Andreas: and again Andreas and Philippos word to Yah Shua. ²³
YAH SHUA PROPHESIES HIS DEATH AND GLORIFICATION
And Yah Shua answers them, wording, The hour is come to glorify the Son of humanity. ²⁴ Amen! Amen! I word to you, Unless a kernal of grain falls to the ground and dies, it abides alone: but whenever it dies, it brings forth much fruit. ²⁵ Whoever befriends his soul, loses it; and whoever hates his soul in this cosmos, guards it to life eternal: ²⁶ whenever anyone ministers to me, follow me; and where I am, there also is my minister: whenever anyone ministers to me, him my Father honors.

¹
THE HOLY METAMORPHOSIS
So I beseech you, brothers, through the compassions of Elohim, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, well-pleasing to Elohim - your logical liturgy.

¹¹
SHALOM THROUGH THE BLOOD OF MESSIAH
So remember that you, ever goyim in the flesh, who are worded, Uncircumcision by those worded, Circumcision - in the flesh - handmade; ¹² that at that season you, being apart from Messiah, being alienated from the citizenship of Yisra El; strangers from the covenants of the pre-evangelism having no hope and atheist in the cosmos: ¹³ and now in Messiah Yah Shua - being formerly afar you became near by the blood of the Messiah.

⁸
COSMIC MANNERS AND COSTUME
So I will that men pray in every place lifting hands of mercy apart from wrath and reasoning.

²² But you come to Mount Siyon to the city of the living Elohim - the Yeru Shalem of the heavenlies and to myriads of angels,

¹⁵ So through him we continually offer the sacrifice of halal to Elohim, that is, the fruit of our lips, professing his name:

¹
SALUTATION
Petros, an apostle of Yah Shua Messiah: To the pilgrim diaspora throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Biyournia, ² Select according to the prognosis of Elohim the Father, in holiness of Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Yah Shua Messiah: Charism to you and shalom be multiplied.

⁵ and you yourselves, as living stones, are built a spiritual house - a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices, well-received to Elohim through Yah Shua Messiah.

¹⁰ Neither turns the scion aside from Yah Hudah nor a statute setter from between his feet until Shiloh come; and the obedience of the people is his:

⁴⁷ Save us, O Yah Veh our Elohim and gather us from among the goyim, to spread hands to your holy name and to laud in your halal.

² Say it, you redeemed of Yah Veh - whom he redeemed from the hand of the tribulator; ³ and gathered from the lands - from the rising and from duskward, from the north and from seaward.

² Yah Veh builds Yeru Shalem; he gathers the overthrown of Yisra El;

¹¹
THE SURVIVORS RESTORED
And so be it, in that day, Adonay adds to set his hand secondly to chattel the survivors of his people who survive - from Ashshur and from Misrayim and from Pathros and from Kush and from Elam and from Shinar and from Hamath and from the islands of the sea: ¹² and he lifts an ensign for the goyim and gathers the overthrown of Yisra El and gathers the scattered of Yah Hudah from the four wings of the earth:

¹² And so be it, in that day, Yah Veh beats off from the stream of the river to the wadi of Misrayim; and gathers you, one by one, O you sons of Yisra El. ¹³ And so be it, in that day, the great shophar blasts; and they come to them who destruct in the land of Ashshur, and the expelled in the land of Misrayim; and they prostrate to Yah Veh in the holy mount at Yeru Shalem.

⁶ I say to the north, Give up! and to the south, Refrain not! Bring my sons from far and my daughters from the ends of the earth

¹² Behold, these come from afar; and behold, these from the north and from the seaward; and these from the land of Sinim.

²² Thus says Adonay Yah Veh, Behold, I lift my hand to the goyim and lift my ensign to the people: and they bring your sons in the bosom and bear your daughters on their shoulders:

⁷ For a small blink I forsook you; but with great mercies I gather you:

³ And the goyim come to your light and sovereigns to the brilliance of your rising. ⁴ Lift your eyes all round, and see: they all gather; they come to you: your sons come from afar and your daughters nurture at your side. ⁵ Then you awe and flow together; and your heart fears and enlarges: because the abundance of the sea turns to you; the valued of the goyim come to you: ⁶ the throngs of camels cover you - the dromedaries of Midyan and Ephah; all they of Sheba come: they bear gold and incense and they evangelize the halals of Yah Veh: ⁷ all the flocks of Qedar gather to you; the rams of Nebayoth minister to you: they ascend with pleasure on my sacrifice altar and I adorn the house of my adornment. ⁸ Who are these, flying as a cloud and as the doves to their windows? ⁹ Surely the islands await me; and the ships of Tarshish first to bring your sons from afar - their silver and their gold with them to the name of Yah Veh your Elohim, and to the Holy One of Yisra El, because he adorns you. ¹⁰ And the sons of strangers build your walls and their sovereigns minister to you: for in my rage I smote you and in my pleasure I mercied you: ¹¹ and your portals open continually - shut neither day nor night; to bring you the forces of the goyim, even their sovereigns are driven.

¹⁸ And I - their works and their fabrications I come to gather all goyim and tongues; and they come, and see my honor: ¹⁹ and I set a sign among them; and I send the escapees to the goyim - to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud - who draw the bow, - to Tubal, and Yavan - to the islands afar, who neither heard my fame nor saw my honor; and they tell my honor among the goyim: ²⁰ and they bring all your brothers for an offering to Yah Veh - from all goyim on horses and in chariots and in palanquins and on mules and on prancers to my holy mountain Yeru Shalem, says Yah Veh; as the sons of Yisra El bring an offering in a pure instrument into the house of Yah Veh. ²¹ And I also take of them for priests for Leviym, says Yah Veh.

¹⁷ for I ascend health to you and I heal you of your wounds - an oracle of Yah Veh because they called you, Expelled - Siyon, whom no man seeks after.

¹⁰ Hear the word of Yah Veh, O you goyim! And tell it in the islands afar off, and say, He who winnows Yisra El gathers him and guards him as a tender to his drove.

¹¹ and the sons of Yah Hudah and the sons of Yisra El gather together, and set themselves one head, and they ascend from the land: for great is the day of Yizre El.

⁶ In that day, - an oracle of Yah Veh I gather the limping and I gather the expelled and those whom I vilified;

¹⁸ I gather the grieved from the congregation who became from you; whose reproach was a burden. ¹⁹ Behold, at that time, I work all who humble you: and I save her who limps, and gather her who was expelled; and I set them for a halal and a name in every land of their shame. ²⁰ At that time, I bring you, even in the time I gather you: for I give you a name and a halal among all people of the earth, when I restore your captivity in front of your eyes, says Yah Veh.

⁸ I hiss for them, and gather them; for I redeemed them: and in abounding, they abound: ⁹ and I seed them among the people: and they remember me afar off; and they live with their sons, and return. ¹⁰ I return them from the land of Misrayim, and gather them from Ashshur; and I bring them into the land of Gilad and Lebanon; and naught is found for them.

¹⁶
OTHER SHEEP, ANOTHER COURTYARD: ONE SHEPHERDDOM, ONE SHEPHERD
And I have other sheep, not of this courtyard: I must also bring them; and they hear my voice; and there becomes one shepherddom and one shepherd.

⁵² and not only for that goyim, but that he also gathers together in one the children of Elohim who are scattered abroad.

¹⁰ that in the administration of the fulness/shalom of seasons he sum up all in the Messiah - both in the heavens and on earth - in him:

¹⁴ For he is our shalom - who made both one and loosed the middle hedge of partition; ¹⁵ inactivating the enmity in his flesh, even the torah, misvoth in dogmas; that through himself he created the two into one new human, making shalom; ¹⁶ and that he fully reconciled both to Elohim in one body through the stake, having slaughtered the enmity therein:

²⁶ And your carcase becomes food for all flyers of the heavens and for the animals of the earth and no man trembles them.

⁶ - to abandon together to the swoopers of the mountains and to the animals of the earth: and the swoopers summer on them, and all the animals of the earth winter on them.

⁹ To me, my inheritance is as a speckled swooper. Are the swoopers all around against her? Come, gather all the live beings of the field; come for food.

⁵ and I abandon you in the wilderness - you and all the fish of your rivers: so that you fall on the face of the fields; so that you are neither gathered together, nor gathered: I give you for food to the live beings of the earth and to the flyers of the heavens:

¹⁷ And you, son of humanity, thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Speak to every bird of wing, and to every live being of the field, Gather and come; gather from all around for the sacrifice I sacrifice for you - a great sacrifice on the mountains of Yisra El - to eat flesh and drink blood:

¹⁷
THE SUPPER OF THE MEGA ELOHIM
And I see one angel standing in the sun; and he cries with a mega voice - wording to all the fowls that fly in the midheavens, Come and gather yourselves together to the supper of the mega Elohim ¹⁸ to eat the flesh of sovereigns, and the flesh of chiliarchs, and the flesh of mighty, and the flesh of horses, and of those sitting on them, and the flesh of all - liberated and servant - minute and mega.

⁴ neither give sleep to your eyes nor drowsiness to your eyelids; ⁵ deliver yourself as a gazelle from the hand - as a bird from the hand of the snarer. ⁶ Go to the ant, you sloth; see her ways and enwisen: ⁷ who, having no commander, officer, or sovereign, ⁸ prepares her bread in the summer and harvests her food in the harvest. ⁹ Until when lie you down, O sloth? When rise you from your sleep? ¹⁰ A little sleep; a little drowsiness; a little clasping of the hands to lie down:

³⁰ I passed by the field of the man of sloth and by the vineyard of the human lacking heart; ³¹ and behold, it all ascends with thistles and nettles cover the face and the stone wall is broken down. ³² Then I see and set my heart well - I see and take discipline. ³³ A little sleep; a little drowsiness; a little clasping of the hands to lie down: ³⁴ and so be your poverty as one who travels; and your lack as a man with buckler.

¹⁰ For Yah Veh libates the spirit of sound sleep upon you: and binds your eyes - the prophets and your heads - the seers, he covers.

⁸ Your watchers lift the voice; with the voice they shout together: for they see eye to eye when Yah Veh returns to Siyon.

¹
FASTING
Call out with the throat! Spare not! Lift your voice as a shophar and tell my people their rebellion; and the house of Yaaqov their sins.

¹³ For from their least, even to their greatest, every one greedily gains to greedy gain; and from the prophet, even to the priest, every one works falsely: ¹⁴ and they heal the breeching of my people slightly, saying, Shalom! Shalom! when there is no shalom.

¹³ And I say, Aha! Adonay Yah Veh! Behold, the prophets say to them, You neither see the sword, nor famine; for I give you the shalom of truth in this place. ¹⁴ And Yah Veh says to me, The prophets prophesy falsehoods in my name: I neither sent them nor misvahed them nor worded to them: they prophesy to you a false vision and divination and worthlessness and the deceit of their heart.

¹³ And I see frivolity in the prophets of Shomeron; they prophesy in Baal, and stray my people Yisra El: ¹⁴ and I see a horror in the prophets of Yeru Shalem; they adulterize and walk in falsehoods: yes, they strengthen the hands of vilifiers so that no man returns from his evil: they all are to me as Sedom and the settlers as Amorah.

¹⁵ And I come to them of the exile at Tel Aviv, who settle by the river of Kebar, and where they settle, I settle; and settle there astonished among them seven days. ¹⁶
THE WARNING OF YAH VEH CONCERNING NOT WARNING
And so be it, at the end of seven days, so be the word of Yah Veh to me, saying, ¹⁷ Son of humanity, I give you, a watcher to the house of Yisra El: so hear the word at my mouth, and enlighten them from me. ¹⁸ In my saying to the wicked, In dying, you die; and you neither enlighten him, nor word to enlighten the wicked from the wicked way he lives; the same wicked dies in his perversity; and I seek his blood at your hand:

²⁶ and I stick your tongue to your palate and mute you, that you not become their man reprover: for they are a rebellious house. ²⁷ And I word with you, and I open your mouth, and you say to them, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: He who hears, hear; and he who desists, desist - for they are a rebellious house.

¹⁶ - the prophets of Yisra El who prophesy concerning Yeru Shalem - seers of visions of shalom for her and there is no shalom - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.

⁶ And if the watcher sees the sword approach, and neither blasts the shophar nor warns the people; if the sword approaches and takes a soul from among them, he is taken away in his perversity; and I require his blood at the hand of the watcher.

⁶ My people are severed for lack of knowledge: because you spurn knowledge, I also spurn you from priesting to me: seeing you forget the torah of your Elohim, I also forget your sons.

⁷ The days of visitation approach, the days of satisfaction approach; Yisra El knows: the prophet is a fool: the man of the spirit is insane, because of the abundance of your perversity and the great enmity. ⁸ Ephrayim is the watcher of my Elohim: the prophet is a snare of the snarer in all his ways; and enmity is in the house of his El.

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. ⁴ And Yah Veh casts a great wind on the sea, and there is a great storm in the sea, so that the ship fabricates to be broken: ⁵ and the mariners awe and every man cries to his elohim; and cast the instruments in the ship into the sea to lighten it by them: and Yonah descends into the flanks of the ship; and he lies down and sleeps soundly: ⁶ and the great sailer approaches him, and says to him, What mean you, O sound sleeper? Rise, call on your Elohim, if so be that Elohim shine on us that we not destruct.

¹⁸ Your tenders slumber, O sovereign of Ashshur; your mighty tabernacle: your people scatter on the mountains and no one gathers.

¹⁴ Allow them: they are blind guides of the blind: and whenever the blind guide the blind both fall into the cistern.

¹⁶ Woe to You, you blind guides, who word, Whoever oaths in the nave, it is naught; but whoever oaths in the gold of the nave, is a debtor. ¹⁷ You fools and blind: for which is greater, The gold? Or the nave that hallows the gold? ¹⁸ And, Whoever oaths in the sacrifice altar, it is naught; but whoever oaths in the oblation thereon, is a debtor. ¹⁹ You fools and blind: for which is greater, The oblation? Or the sacrifice altar that hallows the oblation? ²⁰ So whoever oaths in the sacrifice altar, oaths in it, and in all thereon: ²¹ and whoever oaths in the nave, oaths in it, and in him who settles therein: ²² and whoever oaths in the heavens, oaths in the throne of Elohim, and in him who sits thereon. ²³ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees! Hypocrites! For you pay tithes of mint and anise and kammon, and forsake the weightier matters of the torah - the judgment and the mercy and the trust: these you need to do and not forsake those undone. ²⁴ You blind guides who strain at a gnat and swallow a camel. ²⁵ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees! Hypocrites! For outwardly you purify the cup and the platter; but inwardly they are full of plunder and unrestraint. ²⁶ Blind Pharisee! First purify the inward cup and platter, so that it also becomes purified outwardly.

³⁴ For as a human who goes abroad - who forsakes his house and gives his servants authority - to each his work and also misvahs the portalguard to watch. ³⁵ So you watch: for you know not when the adoni of the house comes - at evening or at midnight or at the rooster voice or in the morning: ³⁶ lest coming suddenly he finds you sleeping: ³⁷ and what I word to you I word to all, Watch!

³⁹ And he says a parable to them, Can the blind guide the blind? Indeed fall they not both into the cistern? ⁴⁰ The disciple is not above his doctor: but everyone who prepares is as his doctor.

² See to the dogs; see to the evil workers; see to the incisors:

³ Esteem not the poor in his dispute.

¹²
THE SONS OF ELI
And the sons of Eli are sons of Beli Yaal; they know not Yah Veh. ¹³ And the judgment of the priest with the people is, when any man sacrifices sacrifice, that while the flesh stews, the lad of the priest comes with a fork of three teeth in his hand; ¹⁴ and he smites it into the laver or boiler or caldron or skillet; and all that ascends with the fork the priest takes for himself: thus they work to all the Yisra Eliy who come to Shiloh. ¹⁵ And ere they incense the fat, the lad of the priest comes and says to the man who sacrifices, Give the priest flesh to roast; and he takes no stewed flesh from you - only, live. ¹⁶ And the man says unto him, In incensing, incense the fat, as this day, and take as your soul desires. And he says to him, Give it to me now: and if not, I take it by strength. ¹⁷ Wherefore the sin of the lads is mighty great at the face of Yah Veh: because men scorn the offering of Yah Veh.

²⁹ Why trample you at my sacrifice and at my offering which I misvah in my habitation? - and honor your sons above me to cut the firstlings of all the offerings of Yisra El my people?

¹⁰ Neither is he who loves silver, satisfied with silver; nor he who loves abundance, with produce: this is also vanity.

³ The ox knows his chatteler and the burro the manger of his master: Yisra El knows not; my people discern not.

¹⁷ For the perversity of his greedy gain I rage and smite him: I hide myself and rage, and he goes on apostate in the way of his heart.

¹⁷ But your eyes and your heart are for naught but your greedy gain and for pouring innocent blood and for oppression and to work violence.

¹⁹ Yes, you profane me among my people for palmfuls of barley and for bits of bread - to execute the souls that ought not die and to enliven them that ought not live - by your lying to my people - hearkening to lies.

² Son of humanity, prophesy against the tenders of Yisra El - prophesy, and say to them, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh to the tenders: Ho to the tenders of Yisra El who tend themselves! Tend the tenders not the flocks? ³ You eat the fat and you enrobe with the wool; you sacrifice the fattened: you tend not the flock.

⁵ Thus says Yah Veh concerning the prophets who stray my people - who bite with their teeth and call out, Shalom; who give not into their mouths, and hallow war against him. ⁶ So your night is without a vision and darkness without a divination: and the sun goes down over the prophets and the day darkens over them:

¹¹ The heads judge for a bribe and the priests teach for a price, and the prophets divine for silver: yet they lean on Yah Veh, saying, Is not Yah Veh among us? Evil approaches us not!

¹⁵ And Yah Veh says to me, Take to yourself again the instruments of a foolish tender: ¹⁶ for, behold, I raise a tender in the land, who neither visits the cut off, nor seeks the lad, nor heals the broken, nor sustains the stationed: and he eats the flesh of the fat and craunches their hoofs. ¹⁷ Ho to the idol tender who forsakes the flock! the sword is on his arm and on his right eye: his arm withers, and in dimming, his right eye dims.

¹⁰ Who, even among you, shuts the doors? Yes, you light my sacrifice altar gratuitously; I neither delight in you, says Yah Veh Sabaoth, nor an offering at your hand pleases me.

¹⁴ And in them is fulfilled/shalamed the prophecy of Yesha Yah - which words, By hearing you hear, and no way comprehend; - and by observing you observe, and no way perceive: ¹⁵ for this people callous their heart and dull their ears from hearing and shut their eyes - lest ever they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and comprehend with their heart and turn around; and I heal them. ^{Isaiah 6:9,10}

⁴³ Why know you not my speech? Even because you cannot hear my word.

²⁹ For I know this, that after my departing, burdenous wolves enter to you, not sparing the shepherddom.

³³ I panted after silver or gold or garment from no one.

⁴ in whom the elohim of this eon blinds the comprehensions of the trustless, lest the light of the evangelism of the glory of the Messiah - being the icon of Elohim radiate to them.

¹⁹ whose completion/shalom is destruction, whose elohim is their belly, whose glory is in their shame, who think earthly.

³ no winesop, no striker, not avaricious: but gentle, amicable, unavaricious,

⁸
MINISTERS
Likewise ministers: venerant, not doubleworded, not heeding much wine, not avaricious,

⁷ For an episcopate, as the administrator of Elohim, must be unaccusable, neither selfpleasing nor wrathful, nor a winesop, nor a striker, nor avaricious;

¹¹ whose mouths must be stopped; who overturn whole houses doctrinating what they must not for shameful gain.

² Shepherd the shepherddom of Elohim among you, overseeing - not by compulsion, but voluntarily; not for avarice, but eagerly;

³ and in avarice they fabricate words and merchandise of you: whose judgment of old idles not and their destruction slumbers not.

¹⁴ eyes full of adultery, and restless from sin; entrapping unstable souls; a heart exercised with avarice; children of curse ¹⁵ who forsake the straight way and wander; following the way of Bilam of Beor who loved the rewards of injustice; ¹⁶ and was reproofed for his own torah violations: the voiceless burro uttering in a human voice forbad the insanity of the prophet.

¹¹ Woe to them! because they go in the way of Qayin and rush for reward after the seduction of Bilam and destruct in the controversy of Korach.

¹⁶ These are murmurers - fatalists walking after their own pantings; and their mouth speaking overbulgings; marveling over faces to benefit.

¹⁵ For outside are dogs, and pharmaceutists, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whoever befriends and makes a lie.

⁶ He says in his heart, I totter not from generation to generation - never in evil.

³⁵ They smote me, and I was not sick; they hammered me, and I knew it not. When waken I? I seek it again and again.

¹ Halal not yourself in the day of tomorrow; for you know not what a day births.

⁴ Not for sovereigns, O Lemu El, neither for sovereigns, to drink wine; nor for potentates, intoxicants: ⁵ lest they drink and forget the statute and alter the plea of any of the sons of humiliation.

¹¹ Ho to them who start early in the morning to pursue intoxicants; who linger in the evening breeze until wine inflames them:

²² Ho to them, the mighty to drink wine, and men of valour to mix intoxicants:

¹³ and behold, rejoicing and cheerfulness, slaughtering oxen and slaughtering flock, eating flesh and drinking wine. Eat and drink - for tomorrow we die. ¹⁴ And Yah Veh Sabaoth exposes in my ears, Surely this perversity kapars/atones not to you until you die, says Adonay Yah Veh Sabaoth.

⁷ And even they, through wine, err inadvertently; and through intoxicants, stagger; the priest and the prophet, through intoxicants, err inadvertently - swallowed by wine: they stagger through intoxicants; they err inadvertently in sight; they waver in judgment. ⁸ For all tables are filled with vomit and dung, without a clean place.

¹⁸ And they say, Come! We fabricate fabrications against Yirme Yah; for neither the torah destructs from the priest nor counsel from the wise nor the word from the prophet: Come, and smite him with the tongue, and hearken not to any of his words.

¹¹ Whoredom and wine and juice take away the heart:

³ You who cast away the evil day; who bring near the settlement of violence; 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; ⁵ who chatter to the mouth of the bagpipe who, as David, fabricate to themselves instruments of song; ⁶ who drink wine in sprinklers and anoint themselves with the firstlings ointments; who are not worn out for the breach of Yoseph:

⁴⁹ and begins to strike his co-servants and to eat and drink with the intoxicated; ⁵⁰ the adoni of that servant comes in a day when he expects not and in an hour he knows not; ⁵¹ and dichotomizes him and places his portion with the hypocrites: there is weeping and gnashing of teeth.

¹⁹ and say to my soul, Soul, you have vast goods laid for many years; Rest! Eat! Drink! Rejoice! ²⁰ And Elohim says to him, Thoughtless! This night your soul is required of you: so whose are those that you prepared?

⁴⁵ But whenever that servant says in his heart, My adoni takes his time in coming; and he begins to strike the lads and lasses; and to eat and drink and to intoxicate; ⁴⁶ the adoni of that servant comes in a day he awaits him not and at an hour he knows not; and dichotomizes him, and places his portion with the trustless.

³⁴ And heed to yourselves, lest ever your hearts burden with hangovers and intoxication and anxieties of existence, so that day stands by you unawares.

³² If after the manner of humanity I strove with beasts at Ephesus, what benefit I, if the dead rise not? Eat and drink - for tomorrow we die.
