THE SIN OF YAH HUDAH
At that time, - an oracle of Yah Veh they bring the bones of the sovereigns of Yah Hudah and the bones of his governors and the bones of the priests and the bones of the prophets and the bones of the settlers of Yeru Shalem from their tombs: ² and they spread them to the sun and the moon and all the host of the heavens - whom they loved and whom they served and after whom they walked and whom they sought and to whom they prostrated: they are neither gathered nor entombed; they are for dung on the face of the soil: 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. ⁴ And you say to them, Thus says Yah Veh; Fall they, and rise not? Turns he away, and returns not? ⁵ Why then turns this people of Yeru Shalem away by a perpetual apostasy? They uphold deceit; they refuse to return. ⁶ I hearken and hear; they word not right: no man sighs of his evil, saying, What worked I? Every one turns to his race as a horse overflowing into the war. ⁷ Yes, the stork in the heavens knows her seasons; and the turtledove and the swallow and the thrush regard the time of their coming; and my people know not the judgment of Yah Veh. ⁸ How say you, We are wise and the torah of Yah Veh is with us? Behold, surely it works falsehood; the false stylus of the scribes works falsehood. ⁹ The wise shame: they are dismayed and captured: behold, they spurn the word of Yah Veh; and what wisdom is in them? ¹⁰ So I give their women to others and their fields to their successors: for every one from the least even to the greatest greedily gains to greedy gain - from the prophet even to the priest - every one works falsely. ¹¹ And they heal the breech of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Shalom! Shalom! when there is no shalom. ¹² Shame they when they work abhorrence? No, in shaming, they neither shame, nor know they to blush: so they fall among the fallen: - falter in the time of their visitation, says Yah Veh. ¹³ In consuming, I consume them, - an oracle of Yah Veh: - neither grapes on the vine nor figs on the fig tree; and the leaf withers; and I give these to pass away from them. ¹⁴ Why sit we? Gather together; and enter the fortified cities: and hush there: for Yah Veh our Elohim hushes us and gives us water of rosh to drink - because we sin against Yah Veh. ¹⁵ We await shalom, and there is no good; for a time of healing, and behold, fright! ¹⁶ The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan: the whole land quakes at the voice of the neighing of his mighty; and they come and devour the land and the fulness thereof - the city, and they who settle therein. ¹⁷ For, behold, I send serpents - hissers among you, who have no charmer; and they bite you - an oracle of Yah Veh. ¹⁸ I cheer myself against grief, my heart bleeds within me. ¹⁹ Behold! the voice of the shout from the daughter of my people in a land afar: Is not Yah Veh in Siyon? Is not her sovereign in her? Why vex they me with their sculptiles? And with strange vanities? ²⁰ The harvest passes; the summer concludes; and we - we are not saved. ²¹ For the breech of the daughter of my people, I breech; I darken; Desolation holds me. ²² Is there no balm in Gilad? Is there no healer there? Why ascends not the health of the daughter of my people?

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.

¹⁶ And Yoshi Yah turns his face, and he sees the tombs in the mount; and sends and takes the bones from the tombs and burns them on the sacrifice altar and fouls it, according to the word of Yah Veh which the man of Elohim called out - who called out these words.

²⁰ and he sacrifices all the priests of the bamahs on the sacrifice altars; and burns human bones on them; and returns to Yeru Shalem.

⁴ and they pull down the sacrifice altars of Baalim from his face; and he cuts down the sun icons over above them; and he pulls down and pulverizes the asherim and the sculptiles and the moltens, and sprinkles on the face of the tombs of them who sacrificed to them: ⁵ and he burns the bones of the priests on their sacrifice altars; and purifies Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem

³² So behold, days come, - an oracle of Yah Veh that they neither say any more, Topheth nor Gay Ben Hinnom/Valley of the Son of Burning, but Gay Haregah/Valley of Slaughter: for they entomb in Topheth until there is no place: ³³ and the carcases of this people are meat for the flyers of the heavens and for the animals of the earth; and no one trembles them away. ³⁴ Then I shabbathize from the cities of Yah Hudah, and from the outways of Yeru Shalem, the voice of rejoicing and the voice of cheerfulness; the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride - for the land becomes parched.

⁵ and I give the carcases of the sons of Yisra El at the face of their idols; and I winnow your bones all around your sacrifice altars.

¹
THE VISION OF THE VALLEY OF DRY BONES
And so be the hand of Yah Veh on me; and he carries me in the spirit of Yah Veh and rests me midst the valley full of bones:

¹
JUDGMENT ON YAH HUDAH AND YISRA EL
Thus says Yah Veh: For three rebellions of Moab, and for four, I restore them not; because of burning the bones of the sovereign of Edom into lime:

¹⁹ and lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars and all the host of the heavens and be driven to prostrate to them and serve them - which Yah Veh your Elohim allotted to all people under the whole of the heavens.

³ and goes and serves other elohim and prostrates to them - either the sun or moon or any of the host of the heavens, which I misvah not to;

³⁶ and they return and tell him. And he says, This is the word Yah Veh worded by the hand of his servant Eli Yah the Tisbehiy, saying, In the allotment of Yizre El dogs devour the flesh of Iy Zebel: ³⁷ and the carcase of Iy Zebel becomes as dung on the face of the field in the allotment of Yizre El; so that they not say, This is Iy Zebel.

¹⁶ and they leave all the misvoth of Yah Veh their Elohim; and work moltens - two calves and work an asherah and prostrate to all the host of the heavens and serve Baal:

³ And he returns and builds the bamahs Yechizqi Yah his father destroyed; and he raises sacrifice altars for Baal and works an asherah as Ach Ab sovereign of Yisra El worked; and prostrates to all the host of the heavens and serves them.

⁵ and he builds sacrifice altars for all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of Yah Veh:

⁵ And he ceases the ascetics whom the sovereigns of Yah Hudah gave to incense in the bamahs in the cities of Yah Hudah and in the places all around Yeru Shalem; also them who incensed to Baal to the sun and to the moon and to the constellations and to all the host of the heavens:

³ and he returns and builds the bamahs Yechizqi Yah his father pulled down; and he raises sacrifice altars for Baalim and works asherim; and prostrates to all the host of the heavens and serves them; ⁴ and he builds sacrifice altars in the house of Yah Veh whereof Yah Veh says, In Yeru Shalem is my name eternally. ⁵ And he builds sacrifice altars for all the host of the heavens in the two courts of the house of Yah Veh:

¹⁰ desolated at En Dor, to become as dung for the soil.

³ If a man births a hundred and lives many years so that the days of his years be many and his soul satisfies not with good and also he has no tomb: I say, a miscarriage is better than he:

²² Word thus, - an oracle of Yah Veh The carcases of humanity falls as dung on the face of the field; and as the omer after the harvester: and no one gathers.

⁴ they die deaths of sicknesses; - neither chopped after nor entombed; - as dung on the face of the soil: - finished off by the sword and by famine; and their carcases are meat for the flyers of the heavens and for the animals of the earth.

¹³ and so be the houses of Yeru Shalem and the houses of the sovereigns of Yah Hudah - fouled as the place of Topheth because of all the houses on whose roofs they incensed to all the host of the heavens and libated libations to other elohim.

¹⁹ He is entombed with the tomb of a burro - dragged and cast forth beyond the portals of Yeru Shalem.

³⁰ So thus says Yah Veh of Yah Yaqim sovereign of Yah Hudah; No one of his is to sit on the throne of David and his carcase is cast out - to the parchness in the day and to the frost in the night:

¹⁷ for in working, we work whatever comes from our own mouth, to incense to the sovereigness of the heavens and to libate libations to her as we worked - we and our fathers our sovereigns and our governors in the cities of Yah Hudah and in the outways of Yeru Shalem: for then we were satiated with bread and were good and saw no evil: ¹⁸ and since we ceased to incense to the sovereigness of the heavens and to libate libations to her, we are all in want, - consumed by the sword and by the famine: ¹⁹ and when we incensed to the sovereigness of the heavens, and libated libations to her, worked we cakes to idolize her, and libated libations to her without our men?

¹⁶ And he brings me into the inner court of the house of Yah Veh, and behold, at the portal of the manse of Yah Veh between the porch and the sacrifice altar - about twenty-five men with their backs toward the manse of Yah Veh and their faces eastward; and they prostrate eastward toward the sun.

⁵ and they who prostrate to the host of the heavens on the roofs; and they who prostrate and oath by Yah Veh, and oath by Malcham;

¹⁷ And I tribulate humanity and they walk as the blind: because they sin against Yah Veh and pour blood as dust and eat the dung ball.

⁴² But Elohim turns, and surrenders them to liturgize the host of the heavens; exactly as scribed in the scroll of the prophets, You, house of Yisra El, offer you slaughters and sacrifices to me by the space of forty years in the wilderness?

¹
THE OPEN INVITATION OF YAH VEH And so be it, when all these words come on you - the blessing and the abasement that I give at your face; and you restore them to heart among all the goyim where Yah Veh your Elohim has driven you;

⁴ and so be it, if you are expelled to the ends of the heavens, from thence Yah Veh your Elohim gathers you; and from thence he takes you:

⁴ and goes by himself a journey of a day into the wilderness and comes and settles under one juniper: and he asks for his soul to die; and says, Enough now, O Yah Veh, take away my soul; for I am no better than my fathers.

²⁰ Why gives he light to him in misery and life to the bitter soul; ²¹ who await death, and so be it not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures; ²² who cheer and twirl and rejoice, when they can find the tomb?

¹⁵ so that my soul chooses strangling and death rather than my bones. ¹⁶ I spurn; I live not eternally; let me decease; for my days are vanity.

¹⁴ Curse the day I was birthed; bless not the day my mother birthed me. ¹⁵ Curse the man who evangelized to my father, saying, A male son is birthed to you; in cheering, cheer him: ¹⁶ so be that man, as the cities Yah Veh turned against and sighed not - to hear the cry in the morning, and the shout at noon time: ¹⁷ because he executed me not from the womb that my mother become my tomb and her womb eternally great. ¹⁸ Why came I forth from the womb - to see toil and grief? To finish off my days with shame?

³ and I gather the survivors of my flock from all lands I drove them; and return them to their habitations of rest; and they bear fruit and abound:

⁸ but, Yah Veh lives, who ascended and who led the seed of the house of Yisra El from the north land, and from all lands I drove them: and they settle in their own soil.

¹⁴ and you find me - an oracle of Yah Veh and I return your captivity and I gather you from all the goyim and from all the places I drove you - an oracle of Yah Veh and I return you to the place whence I exiled you;

²⁸ For he sent to us in Babel, saying, This is long: build houses and settle and plant gardens and eat their fruit.

³⁶ And so now, thus says Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El concerning this city of which you say, to give into the hand of the sovereign of Babel by the sword and by the famine and by the pestilence, ³⁷ Behold, I gather them from all lands, where I drove them in my wrath and in my fury and in great rage; and I return them to this place: and have them settle confidently:

¹² and all the Yah Hudiym return from all the places they were driven and come to the land of Yah Hudah - to Gedal Yah, to Mispeh, and gather wine and summer fruits mighty abounding.

⁷ O Adonay, justness to you; and shame of faces to us, as this day; to the men of Yah Hudah and to the settlers of Yeru Shalem and to all Yisra El, near and far, through all the lands you drove them, because of the treason they treasoned against you.

³ and now, O Yah Veh, I beseech you, take my soul from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.

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:

⁶ And in those days humanity seeks death and finds not; and pants to die and death flees from them.

³⁸ whatever prayer and supplication of any man or of all your people Yisra El or of every human knowing the plague of his own heart and spreads his palms toward this house,

¹⁶ for the just fall and rise by sevens; and the wicked fall into evil.

²² As a thick cloud, I wipe out your rebellions; and, as a thick cloud, your sins: return to me; for I redeem you.

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.

¹
THE WHOREDOM OF YISRA EL
Saying, If a man sends away his woman, and she goes from him, and becomes to another man, returns he to her again? In profaning, is not that land profaned? And you whore with many friends and return to me - an oracle of Yah Veh.

²² Return, you apostate sons, and I heal your apostasies. Behold, we come to you; for you are Yah Veh our Elohim.

¹
YAH VEH PLEADS WITH YISRA EL
If you return, O Yisra El, - an oracle of Yah Veh return to me; and if you turn aside your abominations from my face, then you wander not:

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.

³ Perhaps the house of Yah Hudah hears all the evil I fabricate to work to them; so that every man returns from his evil way and I forgive their perversity and their sin.

²³ Desire I at all that the wicked die? - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh and not that he return from his ways, and live?

¹
THE CALL TO YISRA EL TO RETURN TO YAH VEH
Come, and return to Yah Veh: for he tears, and he heals us; he smites, and he binds us:

¹⁰ And the pomp of Yisra El answers to his face: and they neither return to Yah Veh their Elohim nor seek him for all this:

¹
YAH VEH APPEALS TO YISRA EL
O Yisra El, return to Yah Veh your Elohim; for you falter by your perversity.

² The virgin of Yisra El - fallen; she adds not to rise: forsaken on her soil she has no one to raise her up.

⁸ Cheer not against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I rise; when I sit in darkness Yah Veh is my light.

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

²⁰ and if you refuse and rebel, you are consumed with the sword: for the mouth of Yah Veh words.

¹⁰ who say to the seers, See not; and to the seers, See not straightforwardnesses to us; word smoothly to us; see delusions:

²⁰ He grazes on ashes: a mocked heart perverts him that he neither rescues his soul, nor says, Is there not a falsehood in my right?

³² Forgets a virgin her ornaments? Or a bride her bands? Yet my people forget me days without number.

¹¹ And Yah Veh says to me, The apostate Yisra El justifies her soul more than Yah Hudah who deals covertly. ¹² Go and call out these words northward, and say, Return, you apostate Yisra El - an oracle of Yah Veh. I fell not my face on you: for I am merciful - an oracle of Yah Veh. I guard not eternally: ¹³ only, acknowledge your perversity, that you rebel against Yah Veh your Elohim and scatter your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and hearken not to my voice - an oracle of Yah Veh. ¹⁴ Turn, O apostate sons - an oracle of Yah Veh for I am married to you: and I take you, one of a city and two of a family and I bring you to Siyon:

³ O Yah Veh, are not your eyes on trustworthiness? you smite them, and they writhe not; you finish them off, and they refuse to take correction: they toughen their faces as a rock; they refuse to return.

²⁷ as a cage full of flyers, thus are their houses full of deceit: so they greaten and enrich;

²⁴ And they neither hearken nor spread their ear; but walk in the counsels and in the warp of their evil heart; and go backward; and not toward the face. ²⁵ Since the day your fathers came forth from the land of Misrayim, to this day, I even sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily starting early and sending them: ²⁶ yet they neither hearkened to me, nor spread their ear; and hardened their neck: they vilified above their fathers.

⁶ You settle midst deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹⁶ For Yisra El rebels as a revolting heifer; now Yah Veh tends them as a lamb in an expanse:

⁷ And my people are prone to apostasy: though they call Elyon to themselves, no one at all exalts him.

¹¹ And they refuse to hearken; and give a revolting shoulder and heavy their ears that they hear not.

⁴⁰ And you will to not come to me, to have life.

²¹ proof all, hold what is good,

⁹ - whose parousia is after the energizing of Satan in all dynamis and signs and lying omens, ¹⁰ and in all delusion of injustice in them who destruct: for they receive not the love of the truth to save them. ¹¹ And for this cause Elohim sends them an energized seduction so that they trust a lie: ¹² to judge all who trust not the truth, who well-approve injustice.

²⁵ See that you not shun him who speaks. For if they flee not - they who shunned him who oracled on earth, how much more we, - we who turn from him of the heavens

²⁵ But empower what you have till ever I come.

² I say to Elohah, Judge me not wicked; let me know why you contend with me.

²⁷ He observes men, and if any say, I sinned and perverted the straight and it profits me not; ²⁸ he redeems my soul from passing into the pit of ruin and my life sees the light.

¹⁹ Give you the horse might? - enrobe his neck with thunder? ²⁰ - quiver him as a locust? The majesty of his nostrils is terror. ²¹ He digs in the valley and rejoices in his force; he goes on to confront the armour. ²² He ridicules dread and is not dismayed; he turns not back from the face of the sword; ²³ the quiver whizzes against him - the flaming spear and the dart: ²⁴ he swallows the earth with quaking and commotion; he trusts not the voice of the shophar. ²⁵ He says among the shophars, Aha! And he scents the war afar off - the thunder of the governors and the shouting.

² Yah Veh, from the heavens, looks down on the sons of humanity, to see if there is one who comprehends and seeks Elohim.

¹⁸ and so Yah Veh waits to grant you charism - he is exalted to mercy you: for Yah Veh is an Elohim of judgment: blithesome - all who await him.

¹⁶
THE REDEEMER
And he sees that there is no man and astonishes that there is no intercessor: and his own arm saves him; and his justness sustains him:

²⁴ a wild runner discipled to the wilderness who gulps the wind at the yearning of her soul; who, in her occasion, turns her back? No one seeking her wearies themselves; in her month they find her. ²⁵ Withhold your foot from being unshod and your throat from thirst. And you say, I quit! No; I love strangers and after them I go.

¹
THE SEARCH FOR THE MAN WHO WORKS JUDGMENT
Flit through the outways of Yeru Shalem; and see, I beseech, and know; and seek in the broadways - if you find a man - if there be any who work judgment - who seek trustworthiness; and I forgive.

²⁸ because he sees and turns from all the rebellions he worked; in living, he lives: he dies not.

³⁰ And I seek for a man among them, to wall up the wall, and stand in the breach at my face for the land to not ruin it: and I find no one:

² the merciful destruct from the earth; and no one among humanity is straight: they all lurk for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net

⁵ And now, thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: Set your heart on your ways.

⁷ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: Set your heart on your ways:

¹⁶
THE SCROLL OF REMEMBRANCE
Then they who awe Yah Veh word man to friend: and Yah Veh hearkens and hears and inscribes a scroll of remembrance at his face of them who awe Yah Veh and of them who fabricate his name.

¹⁷ And he comes to himself, and says, How many hirelings of my father have super abundant bread, and I destruct with famine! ¹⁸ I rise and go to my father, and say to him, Father, I sinned against the heavens and in your sight; ¹⁹ and am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hirelings.

⁹ Yah Veh is not slack concerning his pre-evangelism as some deem slackness; but is patient to us, who wills that not any destruct, but that all pass to repentance.

²⁰ And the rest of humanity - not slaughtered in these plagues repent not of the works of their hands - to not worship demons and idols of gold and silver and copper and of stone and of wood: which can neither see nor hear nor walk:

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.

¹² the blossoms are seen on the earth; the time of psalming touches and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land:

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

¹² and the harp and the bagpipe, the tambourine and pipe and wine are in their banquets: yes, they neither scan the deeds of Yah Veh nor see the work of his hands.

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. ⁵ I go to the great and word to them - for they know the way of Yah Veh and the judgment of their Elohim: surely these altogether broke the yoke; they tore the bonds.

¹² He breaks down the fabrications of the subtle so that their hands not work their substance: ¹³ he captures the wise in their own craftiness; and hastens the counsel of the twisters.

¹² For empty man disheartens, and humanity births as the colt of a wild runner.

²⁰ he turns aside the lip of the trustworthy and takes away the taste of the aged;

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

⁶ Sons of sons are the crown of the aged; and the beauty of sons are their fathers.

¹
HO TO THE SCRIBES
Ho to them engraving statutes of mischief, and inscribers incribing toil; ² to pervert the poor from pleading their cause; and strip the judgment from the humble of my people - that widows be their spoil and to plunder the orphan!

¹² I inscribe to him the myriads of greatnesses of my torah, they fabricate them as strange:

⁶ and in no way honors his father or his mother. - thus you invalidate the misvah of Elohim for your tradition. ^{Exodus 20:12, 21:17}

⁴¹ Yah Shua says to them, If you had been blind, you had no sin: but now you word, We see! so your sin abides.

²² professing themselves to be wise they became fools;

¹⁷
THE YAH HUDIY AND THE TORAH
Behold, you are named Yah Hudiy and repose in the torah and make your boast in Elohim, ¹⁸ and know his will and approve those that thoroughly surpass, being catechized from the torah; ¹⁹ and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind - a light of them in darkness, ²⁰ a pedagogue of the thoughtless, a doctor of babes having the form of knowledge and of the truth in the torah. ²¹ So you who doctrinate another, doctrinate you not yourself? You who preach, Steal not, you - steal? ²² You who word, Adulterize not, you - adulterize? You who abhor idols, you - strip priestal precincts? ²³ You who boast in torah, through transgressing the torah dishonor you Elohim? ²⁴ For through you the name of Elohim is blasphemed among the goyim exactly as scribed. ²⁵ For circumcision indeed benefits, whenever you transact the torah: but whenever you transgress the torah, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision. ²⁶ So whenever the uncircumcision guards the judgment of the torah, is not indeed his uncircumcision reckoned to circumcision? ²⁷ And uncircumcision, by nature fulfilling/shalaming the torah, judges you, who through the scribing and circumcision transgress the torah. ²⁸ For he is not a Yah Hudiy, manifestly; nor circumcision in the flesh, manifestly: ²⁹ But he is a Yah Hudiy, in the secrets; and circumcision is of heart - in spirit and not in scribing; whose halal is not of humanity, but of Elohim.

¹⁸ Seduce not yourselves. If anyone among you thinks to be wise in this eon, may he become a fool, that he becomes wise. ¹⁹ For the wisdom of this cosmos is foolishness with Elohim. For it is scribed, He grasps the wise in their own cunning. ²⁰ And again, Yah Veh knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain. ^{Job 5:13, Psalm 94:11, 20}

⁶ Guard and work; for this is your wisdom and your discernment in the eyes of the people who hear all these statutes; and say, Surely this great goyim is a wise and discerning people!

¹² He breaks down the fabrications of the subtle so that their hands not work their substance:

⁷ The torah of Yah Veh is perfect, restoring the soul; the witness of Yah Veh is trustworthy, enwisening the gullible;

⁹⁸ your misvoth enwisen me above my enemies; for they are eternally with me: ⁹⁹ I comprehend more than all my teachers; for your witnesses are my meditation: ¹⁰⁰ I discern more than the elders; because I guard your precepts:

²⁰ To the torah and to the witness! If they say not according to this word it is because there is no dawn to them:

¹¹ Surely the governors of Soan are fools, the counsel of the wise counsellors of Paroh become brutish: how say you to Paroh, I am the son of the wise - the son of ancient sovereigns?

¹⁵ Shame they when they work abhorrence? No! In shaming, they neither shame nor know how to shame: so they fall among the fallen: at the time I visit them, they falter, says Yah Veh.

¹⁹ Hear, O earth! Behold, I bring evil on this people - the fruit of their fabrications because they hearken not to my words, and my torah, they spurn.

⁷
MESSAGE AGAINST EDOM
Concerning Edom, thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: Is wisdom no more in Teman? Is counsel destroyed from the discerning? Is their wisdom spread thin?

²⁶ Calamity on calamity arrives; and report on report: and they seek a vision of the prophet; and the torah destructs from the priest and counsel from the elders.

¹⁸ For the word of the stake is to them who destruct, foolishness indeed; and to us, being saved, the dynamis of Elohim. ¹⁹ For it is scribed, I destroy the wisdom of the wise and set aside the comprehension of the comprehending. ^{Isaiah 29:14 20} Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this eon? Elohim indeed, follies he not the wisdom of this cosmos? ²¹ For since in the wisdom of Elohim the cosmos knew not Elohim through wisdom, Elohim well-approved that through the foolishness of preaching to save them who trust. ²² Since the Yah Hudiym ask a sign and the Hellenes seek after wisdom: ²³ we also - we preach Messiah staked - to the Yah Hudiym, indeed a scandal and to the Hellenes foolishness; ²⁴ and to the called - both Yah Hudiym and Hellenes, Messiah - the dynamis of Elohim and the wisdom of Elohim. ²⁵ Because the foolishness of Elohim is wiser than humanity; and the frailty of Elohim mightier than humanity. ²⁶ For you see your calling brothers, how that not many wise after the flesh, not many able, not many well-birthed: ²⁷ But Elohim selects the foolish of the cosmos to shame the wise; and Elohim selects the frailties of the cosmos to shame the mighty; ²⁸ and the ignoble of the cosmos and the belittled Elohim selects; yes, and those not being to inactivate those being: ²⁹ so that no flesh boasts in his sight.

¹⁵ and that from infancy you have known the priestal scribings which are able to enwisen you to salvation through trust in Messiah Yah Shua.

³⁰ You betroth a woman and another man rapes her; you build a house and you settle not therein; you plant a vineyard and pluck not thereof: ³¹ your ox, slaughtered in front of your eyes and you not eat thereof; your he burro, stripped at your face - never to return to you; your flocks, given to your enemies and no one saves them: ³² your sons and your daughters, given to another people; and your eyes see, and fail for them all the day long; and there is no el in your hand.

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.

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.

³¹ the prophets prophesy falsely and the priests subjugate by their hands; and thus my people love it. And what work you in the end?

¹² and turn their houses to others together with their fields and women: for I spread my hand on the settlers of the land - an oracle of Yah Veh. 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:

¹¹ For both prophet and priest profane; yes, in my house I found their evil - an oracle of Yah Veh. ¹² So their way is to them as slippery in the darkness: they are overthrown and fall therein: for I bring evil on them - the year of their visitation - an oracle of Yah Veh. 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 So thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth concerning the prophets: Behold, I feed them with wormwood and have them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Yeru Shalem profaneness goes into all the land. ¹⁶ Thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth: Hearken not to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you: they make you vain: they word a vision of their own heart - not from the mouth of Yah Veh. ¹⁷ In saying, they say to them who scorn me, Yah Veh words, Shalom to you! - and they say to every one who walks after the warp of his own heart, Evil comes not on you!

²⁵ I hear what the prophets say - who prophesy falsehoods in my name, saying, I dreamed! I dreamed! ²⁶ Until when is this in the heart of the prophets who prophesy falsehoods? - yes, prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

³² because of all the evil the sons of Yisra El and the sons of Yah Hudah work to vex me - they, their sovereigns, their governors, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Yah Hudah, and the settlers of Yeru Shalem:

¹³ Because of the sins of her prophets and the perversities of her priests, who pour the blood of the just in her midst,

²⁷ Her governors midst her are as wolves tearing the prey, to pour blood; to destroy souls; to greedily gain greedy gain: ²⁸ and her prophets daub them with slime - seers of vanity, divining lies to them, saying, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: when Yah Veh words not.

³¹ And they come to you as people approaching and they sit at your face as my people; and they hear your words, and work them not: for they work pantings with their mouth but their heart goes after their greedy gain:

¹¹ so because you trample on the poor and take his burdens of grain; you build houses of hewn stone, and you settle not therein; you plant vineyards of desire, and you drink not their wine.

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.

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!

¹³ And their valuables become a plunder, and their houses a desolation: and they build houses, and settle not; and they plant vineyards, and drink not the wine.

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.

¹
PSEUDOPROPHETS AND PSEUDODOCTORS
And so be it also, pseudoprophets among the people - even as pseudodoctors become among you who surreptitiously introduce destructive heresies - even denying the Despotes who marketed them; and bring quick destruction on themselves. ² And many follow their destructive ways - who blaspheme the way of truth: ³ and in avarice they fabricate words and merchandise of you: whose judgment of old idles not and their destruction slumbers not.

⁶ And the sovereign of Yisra El gathers the prophets - about four hundred men and says to them, Go I to war against Ramoth Gilad? Or cease I? And they say, Ascend; for Adonay gives it in the hand of the sovereign.

¹³
MICHAH YAH PROPHESIES DEFEAT
And the angel who goes to call Michah Yah words to him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets are good to the sovereign with one mouth: and so be it, I beseech you, your word as their word - a good word.

¹⁴ and they heal the breeching of my people slightly, saying, Shalom! Shalom! when there is no shalom.

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. ¹⁵ So thus says Yah Veh concerning the prophets who prophesy in my name, whom I sent not, yet they say, Sword and famine become not in this land; the sword and famine consumes those prophets:

⁹ And you, hearken neither to your prophets nor to your diviners nor to your dreamers nor to your cloudgazers nor to your sorcerers who speak to you, saying, You, serve not the sovereign of Babel: ¹⁰ for they prophesy a falsehood to you to remove you far from your soil: and that I drive you out and you destruct.

³ Within two years of days I return to this place all the instruments of the house of Yah Veh, that Nebukadnets Tsar sovereign of Babel took from this place and carried to Babel: ⁴ and I restore to this place Yechon Yah the son of Yah Yaqim sovereign of Yah Hudah with all the exiles of Yah Hudah who went into Babel - an oracle of Yah Veh for I break the yoke of the sovereign of Babel. ⁵ And the prophet Yirme Yah says to the prophet Hanan Yah in the eyes of the priests and in the eyes of all the people standing in the house of Yah Veh, ⁶ yes, the prophet Yirme Yah says, Amen! Thus Yah Veh works! Yah Veh raises the words you prophesied - to return the instruments of the house of Yah Veh and all the exiles from Babel to this place: ⁷ Only hear, I beseech you, this word I word in your ears and in the ears of all the people; ⁸ the prophets who were at my face and at your face originally prophesied both against many lands and against great sovereigndoms - of war and of evil and of pestilence. ⁹ The prophet who prophesies of shalom, when that word of the prophet becomes, then it is known that Yah Veh in truth sent that prophet.

¹⁴ Your prophets see your vanity and your slime; and they expose not your perversity to turn your captivity; but see for you vain burdens and seductions.

¹⁰ Because, even because they seduce my people, saying, Shalom; and there is no shalom; and one builds a wall; and behold, others daub it with slime. ¹¹ Say to them who daub it with slime, It falls! There becomes an overflowing downpour; and you, O great hailstones, fall: and a stormy wind splits: ¹² behold, when the wall falls, say they not to you, Where is the daubing with which you daubed? ¹³ So thus says Adonay Yah Veh: I split it with a stormy wind in my fury; and so be it, an overflowing downpour in my wrath and great hailstones in my fury to fully finish it off: ¹⁴ thus I demolish the wall you daubed with slime so that it touches to the earth, so that the foundation exposes and falls and finishes you off in the midst: and you know I - Yah Veh. ¹⁵ Thus I finish off my fury on the wall and on them who daubed it with slime and say to you, The wall is not: they who daubed it are not; 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.

²² Because with falsehoods you pain the heart of the just, whom I pain not; and strengthen the hands of the evil that he not return from his wicked way, by enlivening him:

¹¹ If a man walking with spirit/wind and with falsehood lies, saying, I drip to you of wine and of intoxicants; he drips to this people.

³⁵ Mine is the avenging and retribution; their foot slips in time: for the day of their calamity is near and that impending on them, hastens.

¹ To His Eminence; On Comprehension: By David, when Doeg the Edomiy comes and tells Shaul, and says to him, David came to the house of Achi Melech. Why halal yourself in evil, O mighty? The mercy of El is all day.

⁷ behold the mighty who sets not Elohim as his stronghold - who confides in the abundance of his riches - who strengthens himself in his calamity.

⁹ their partiality of face answers against them; and they tell their sin as Sedom - they conceal not. Woe to their soul! for they deal themselves evil.

¹³ and the people neither turn to him who smites them, nor seek they Yah Veh Sabaoth: ¹⁴ and Yah Veh cuts off from Yisra El head and tail, palm leaf and rush, in one day. ¹⁵ The elder and lifted face, he is the head; and the prophet teaching falsehood, he is the tail. ¹⁶ For this people who blithe them cause them to stray; and the blithed are swallowed. ¹⁷ So Adonay neither cheers in their youths, nor mercies their orphans and widows: for every one is a profaner and a vilifier and every mouth words folly. For all this he turns not away his wrath and still spreads his hand.

² And so be it, as with the people, thus with the priest; as with the servant, thus with his adoni; as with the maid, thus with her lady; as with the chatteler, thus with the seller; as with the lender, thus with the borrower; as with the exactor, thus with the exacted.

³ And the showers are withheld and no after rain becomes; you have the forehead of a woman - a whore; you refuse to shame.

²⁵ - a conspiracy of prophets in her midst: as a roaring lion tearing the prey, they devour souls: they take the wealthy and esteemed; they abound her widows in her midst: ²⁶ her priests violate my torah and profane my holies: they neither separate between the holy and profane nor make known between the foul and the pure; and conceal their eyes from my shabbaths, and I am profaned among them. ²⁷ Her governors midst her are as wolves tearing the prey, to pour blood; to destroy souls; to greedily gain greedy gain: ²⁸ and her prophets daub them with slime - seers of vanity, divining lies to them, saying, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: when Yah Veh words not. ²⁹ The people of the land in oppressing, oppress; and in stripping, strip; and vex the humble and needy: yes, they oppress the sojourner without judgment. ³⁰ And I seek for a man among them, to wall up the wall, and stand in the breach at my face for the land to not ruin it: and I find no one: ³¹ and I pour my rage on them; I finished them off with the fire of my wrath: I give their own way on their heads - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.

⁵ And you falter in the day and the prophet also falters with you in the night; and I sever your mother. 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.

⁹ Ephrayim becomes desolate in the day of rebuke: among the scions of Yisra El I make known the trustworthy.

⁵ Yah Veh is just among her; he works not wickedness: morning by morning he gives his judgment to light; he lacks not: and the wicked shame not.

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

²⁰ and your force consumes in vain: neither your land gives her produce nor the trees of the land give their fruits.

³⁹ you plant vineyards and serve them, but neither drink the wine nor gather the grapes; for the maggots eat them: ⁴⁰ you have olives throughout all your borders, but you anoint not with the oil; for your olive slips: ⁴¹ you birth sons and daughters but enjoy them not; for they go to captivity: ⁴² all your trees and fruit of your soil the locust possesses.

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. ⁴ Not so the wicked; but are as chaff which the wind disperses.

⁴ What more work I to my vineyard that I worked not therein? Why, when I awaited it to work grapes, worked it stinkweeds? ⁵ And now go to; I have you know what I work to my vineyard: I turn aside the hedge and burn it; and breach the wall to trample on: ⁶ and I place it desolate - neither plucked nor hoed; and briers and thorns ascend: and I misvah the thick clouds to rain no rain thereon.

¹⁰ For ten acres of vineyard work one bath, and the seed of an chomer works an ephah.

²¹ And so be it, in that day, Yah Veh visits upon the host of the high ones on high and the sovereigns of the soil upon the soil: ²² and they gather a gathering as they gather the bound in a well, and shut them up in the lockup; and after many days they are visited.

¹⁷ and they eat your harvest and your bread which your sons and your daughters eat: they eat your flocks and your herds; they eat your vines and your fig trees; they impoverish your fortified cities, wherein you confide, with the sword.

⁸ who is as a tree transplanted by the waters who spreads her roots by the stream; and sees not when heat comes, her leaf is green - neither concerned in the year of drought nor departs from working fruit.

¹⁹ So thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Because you all become dross, behold, so I gather you midst Yeru Shalem: ²⁰ a gathering of silver and copper and iron and lead and tin midst the furnace, to puff the fire thereon, to melt: thus I gather you in my wrath and in my fury and I leave you and melt you: ²¹ yes, I gather you, and puff on you in the fire of my wrath, and melt you in the midst:

³ and proverbialize a proverb to the rebellious house: and say to them, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Set a caldron; set, and also pour water into it: ⁴ gather the members into it - every good member - the flank and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones: ⁵ take the choice of the flock and also whirl the bones under it; and in boiling, boil it well; and seethe the bones midst it. ⁶ So, thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Woe to the city of blood - to the caldron whose scum is therein, and whose scum comes not out of it: bring it out member by member; and that no pebble fall thereon. ⁷ For her blood is in her midst; she sets it on the clearing of a rock; she pours it not on the earth, to cover it with dust; ⁸ - to ascend fury - to avenge avengement; I give her blood on the clearing of a rock - not covered. ⁹ So thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Woe to the city of blood! I - I greaten the pile for fire. ¹⁰ Abound the timber! Inflame the fire! Consume the flesh! And in spicing, spice! And scorch the bones: ¹¹ and stand it empty on the coals, that heat and scorch the copper thereof so that the foulness thereof melts in the midst - to consume the scum thereof.

⁸ - and she knows not that I gave her crop and juice and oil; and abounded her silver and gold which they worked for Baal. ⁹ So I return and take away my crop in time and my juice in season; and rescue my wool and my flax which covers her nakedness.

⁷ He sets my vine desolate and chips away my fig tree: in stripping, he strips and casts away; the tendrils whiten.

¹⁰ the field is ravaged; the soil mourns; for the crop is ravaged: the juice withers; the oil languishes. ¹¹ Shame, O you cultivators! Howl, O you vinedressers! for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is destroyed. ¹² The vine withers and the fig tree languishes; - pomegranate tree, also palm tree and apple tree - all trees of the field wither: because rejoicing withers from the sons of humanity.

¹⁷ Although neither the fig tree blossoms nor produce among the vines; the labor of the olive deceives and the fields work no food; the flock is cut off from the fold, and there is no herd in the stalls:

¹¹ and I call a parch on the land and on the mountains and on the crop and on the juice and on the oil and on whatever the soil brings forth; and on humanity and on animals and on all the labor of the palms.

¹⁷ I smite you with blasting and with pale green and with hail in all the works of your hands; yet you turn not to me - an oracle of Yah Veh.

¹⁹ And he sees a fig tree in the way and comes to it, and finds naught thereon except leaves only: and he words to it, No fruit becomes from you to the eons. - and immediately the fig tree withers.

⁶
YAH SHUA ON THE FIG TREE
And he words this parable: Someone has a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he comes and seeks fruit, and finds none: ⁷ and he says to the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree and find none: Exscind! Why inactivate the earth? ⁸ And he answers him, wording, Adoni, allow it this year also, until I dig all around and cast in manure: ⁹ and if indeed it produces fruit - and if not, be about to exscind it.

¹¹ For the sun rises with a scorch and withers the grass; and the blossom falls and destructs the befittingness of its face: thus also the rich fades in his ways.

³ And Mosheh says to Aharon, It is what Yah Veh worded, saying, I become hallowed in them who come near me and honored at the face of all the people. - and Aharon hushes. :

¹⁸ and the priest stands the woman at the face of Yah Veh and exposes the head of the woman and gives the offering of memorial in her palms - the suspicion offering: and in his hand the priest has the bitter water that curses: ¹⁹ and the priest oaths and says to the woman, If no man has lain with you and if you deviated not to foulness instead of with your man, be exonerated from this bitter water that curses: ²⁰ but if you deviated from your man and if you fouled and some man gave to copulate with you - except for your man: ²¹ then the priest oaths the woman with an oath and the priest says to the woman, Yah Veh gives you an oath - an oath among your people, when Yah Veh gives your flank to fall off and your belly to swell; ²² and this water that curses goes into your inwards, to make your belly swell and your flank fall off. And the woman says, Amen! Amen! ²³ And the priest inscribes these oaths in a scroll and he wipes them with the bitter water: ²⁴ and he has the woman drink the bitter water that curses: and the water that curses enters into her and embitters.

¹⁸ lest there be among you man or woman or family or scion whose heart turns this day from the face of Yah Veh our Elohim, to go and serve the elohim of these goyim; lest there be among you a root that bears the fruit of rosh and wormwood.

³² For their vine is of the vine of Sedom and of the fields of Amorah: their grapes, grapes of rosh with bitter clusters:

⁶ And David says to Abi Shai, Now Sheba the son of Bichri does us more evil than Abi Shalom: take the servants of your your adoni and pursue him; lest he find cities of protection and delivers himself from our eyes.

³ And there are four leprous men at the opening of the portal: and they say man to friend, Why settle we here until we die? ⁴ If we say, We enter into the city, then the famine is in the city and we die there: and if we settle here, we die also. Now come and fall to the camp of the Aramiy: if they save us alive, we live; and if they deathify us, we die.

² I am mute with silence; I hush from good; and my pain troubles me:

²¹ They give me rosh to chew; and in my thirst, fermentation to drink.

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. ⁶ Lift the ensign toward Siyon: withdraw, stay not: for I bring evil from the north and a great breaking.

¹⁵ So thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth, Elohim of Yisra El; Behold, I feed them, this people, with wormwood; and give them water of gall to drink:

²⁰ We acknowledge, O Yah Veh, our wickedness, and the perversity of our fathers: for we sinned against you.

¹⁵ So thus says Yah Veh Sabaoth concerning the prophets: Behold, I feed them with wormwood and have them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Yeru Shalem profaneness goes into all the land.

¹¹ And so be it, Nebukadnets Tsar sovereign of Babel ascends into the land, and we say, Come, we go to Yeru Shalem from the face of the valiant of the Kesediym, and from the face of the valiant of the Aramiym: thus we settle at Yeru Shalem.

¹⁹ remember my humiliation and my persecution - the wormwood and the rosh.

²⁷ - good for the mighty to bear the yoke of his youth. ²⁸ He settles alone and hushes because he bears it on himself:

¹⁰ and his uncle and his cremater lift him to bring the bones from the house, and say to him who is by the flanks of the house, Are there yet any with you? And he says, Final. Then he says, Hush: for we memorialize not the name of Yah Veh.

²⁰ And Yah Veh is in his holy manse: silence at his face, all the earth.

¹³ Hush, O all flesh, at the face of Yah Veh: for he wakens from his holy habitation.

³⁴ they give him vinegar mingled with choler to drink; and he tastes thereof, and wills to not drink.

¹⁰ And I say, Aha, Adonay Yah Veh! In deceiving, you deceive this people and Yeru Shalem, saying, Shalom is yours! - whereas the sword touches to the soul.

¹¹ And they heal the breech of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Shalom! Shalom! when there is no shalom.

¹⁹ In spurning, spurn you Yah Hudah? Loathes your soul Siyon? Why smite you us? And is there no healing for us? We await shalom, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold, fright.

¹² For the settler of Maroth awaits good; for evil descends from Yah Veh to the portal of Yeru Shalem.

³ For whenever they word, Shalom and security; then unexpected ruin stands over them - exactly as travail upon a woman having in womb; and they never no way escape.

²² Then hammered are the horse heelprints by the pransings - the pransings of their mighty ones.

²⁹ and they call the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was birthed to Yisra El: but formerly, the name of the city is Laish.

¹
THE SONS OF YISRA EL ATTACK THE SONS OF BEN YAMIN
And all the sons of Yisra El go out and the witness congregates as one man - from Dan even to Beer Sheba with the land of Gilad to Yah Veh in Mispeh:

¹ A Psalm by David. Unto Yah Veh is the earth and the fulness; the world and they who settle therein:

¹⁵ For a voice tells from Dan, and hearkens mischief from mount Ephrayim. ¹⁶ Remind the goyim; behold, that it be heard against Yeru Shalem; that guards are coming from a land afar, and give their voice against the cities of Yah Hudah.

²⁴ I see the mountains, and behold, they quake; and all the hills abate:

²³ they lay hold on bow and dart; they are cruel, and mercy not; their voice roars as the sea; and they ride on horses - lined up as men for war against you, O daughter of Siyon.

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.

³ At the voice of the stamping of the hoofs of his mighty, at the quake of his chariots, and at the roar of his wheels, the fathers face not the sons for slackness of hands;

⁴ he rebukes the sea and withers and dries all the rivers: Bashan and Karmel/orchard languish; and the blossom of Lebanon languishes: ⁵ the mountains quake at him and the hills melt and the earth lifts at his face - yes, the world and all who settle therein.

² The voice of a whip and the voice of the quake of a wheel and of the pransing horses and of the dancing chariots!

¹⁰ the mountains see you, and writhe: the flooding of the water passes by; the abyss gives his voice: and he lifts his hands on high.

²⁶ For the earth is to Yah Vah and the fulness/shalom thereof. ^{Psalm 24:1}

²⁸ But whenever anyone says to you, This is an idol sacrifice! eat not for sake of him who disclosed it and for sake of conscience: for the earth is to Yah Vah and the fulness/shalom thereof: ^{Psalm 24:1}

⁶ And Yah Veh sends seraph serpents among the people and they bite the people; and much people of Yisra El die.

²⁴ Exhausted by famine, devoured by burning heat and bitter ruin: I also send the teeth of animals on them, with the poison of creepers of the dust.

⁴ their poison is as the poison of a serpent; as the deaf asp who shuts her ear ⁵ - who hearkens not to the voice of charmers, charming charms so wisely.

¹¹ If the serpent bites without enchantment; a master of tongue advantages not.

²⁹ You, cheer not Pelesheth - all of you because the scion of him who smote you is broken: for from the root of the serpent comes forth a hisser; and his fruit is a flying seraph.

¹⁹ - as a man flees the face of a lion and a bear meets him; or goes into the house and props his hand on the wall and a serpent bites him:

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;

¹⁹ for their authorities are in their mouth and in their tails: for their tails are like serpents having heads, and in them they injure. ^{cp Revelation 16:12-14}

¹³ When I say, My bedstead sighs for me, my bed lifts my meditation; ¹⁴ and you terrify me with dreams and frighten me through visions;

⁴ So I say, Look away from me: I am embittered in weeping; hasten not to sigh over me because of the ravage of the daughter of my people.

²⁴ We hear the fame: our hands slacken: tribulation takes hold of us - pang, as in birthing.

¹⁹ Woe to me for my breech; my wound is stricken; and I say, Surely this is a stroke for me to bear. ²⁰ My tent is ravaged and all my cords are torn: my sons are gone from me, and they are not: there is no one to spread my tent any more and to raise my curtains: ²¹ for the tenders are stupid and seek not Yah Veh: so they comprehend not and all their pastures are scattered. ²² The voice of the report! Behold, it comes! Even a great quake from the north land to set the cities of Yah Hudah desolate - a habitation of monsters.

¹⁶ I weep for these; my eye - my eye cascades with water, because the sigher to restore my soul is far from me; my sons desolate, for the enemy prevails mightily. ¹⁷ Siyon spreads her hands and there is no one to sigh over her; Yah Veh commands concerning Yaaqov, that his tribulators surround him; Yeru Shalem is excluded among them.

¹⁷ For this our heart bleeds; for these our eyes darken.

¹⁶ and behold, a likeness of the sons of humanity touches my lips: and I open my mouth and word, and say to him standing in front of me, O my adoni, because of the vision, my pangs turn on me and I retain no force. ¹⁷ For how can the servant of my adoni word this with my adoni? For as for me, at this time, neither force stands in me, yes, nor breath remains in me.

¹⁶ I hear; my belly quivers; my lips quiver at the voice: rottenness enters my bones; and I quiver in myself that I rest in the day of tribulation: he ascends to the people; he troops against them with his troops.

¹⁶ They arouse his jealousy with strangers and with abominations they vex him: ¹⁷ they sacrifice to demons, not to Elohah; to elohim whom they knew not - new - from nearby, who whirled not your fathers. ¹⁸ Remember the Rock who birthed you: you forgot the El who formed you. ¹⁹ And Yah Veh sees, and scorns, because of the vexation of his sons and of his daughters. ²⁰ And he says, I hide my face from them, I see their finality: - a very froward generation; sons - not trustworthy: ²¹ they move me to jealousy with their non-el; they vex me with their vanities: and I move them to jealousy by a non-people; I vex them by a foolish goyim.

²¹ Blessed - Yah Veh from Siyon who tabernacles at Yeru Shalem. Halalu Yah!

¹⁰ Yah Veh reigns eternal; your Elohim, O Siyon, generation to generation. Halalu Yah!

² Yisra El cheers in his Worker; the sons of Siyon twirl in their Sovereign:

⁴ Ho sinful goyim; a people heavy with perversity; a seed of vilifiers; sons - ruiners: they forsake Yah Veh; they scorn the Holy One of Yisra El; they estrange backward.

⁶ Resound and shout, you settlers of Siyon: for great is the Holy One of Yisra El in your midst.

⁵ they come from a land afar - from the end of the heavens - Yah Veh and the instruments of his rage to despoil the whole land.

²² For Yah Veh our judge; Yah Veh our statute setter; Yah Veh our sovereign; he saves us.

³ Then Yesha Yah the prophet comes to sovereign Yechizqi Yah, and says to him, What say these men? and, Whence come they to you? And Yechizqi Yah says, They come to me from a land afar - from Babel.

¹
SIYON REDEEMED
Waken! Waken! Enrobe your strength, O Siyon; enrobe your clothes of adornment, O Yeru Shalem, the holy city: for henceforth the uncircumcised and the foul add not to enter you.

¹⁶ Remind the goyim; behold, that it be heard against Yeru Shalem; that guards are coming from a land afar, and give their voice against the cities of Yah Hudah. ¹⁷ As guards of a field, they are against her all around; because she rebels against me - an oracle of Yah Veh.

³⁰ And you, O ravaged, what work you? Though you enrobe yourself with scarlet, though you adorn with ornaments of gold, though you rip your eyes with stibium, you beautify yourself in vain: they who pant after you, spurn you; they seek your soul. ³¹ For I hear a voice as of stroking and the tribulation as of bursting the matrix - the voice of the daughter of Siyon sighing - who spreads her palms, Woe is me I beseech! for my soul languishes because of murderers.

⁵ Why then turns this people of Yeru Shalem away by a perpetual apostasy? They uphold deceit; they refuse to return. ⁶ I hearken and hear; they word not right: no man sighs of his evil, saying, What worked I? Every one turns to his race as a horse overflowing into the war.

¹⁶ and I scatter them among the goyim whom neither they nor their fathers knew: and I send a sword after them until I finish them off.

⁶ For there is a day, that the guards call out on the mount Ephrayim, Rise, and we ascend to Siyon to Yah Veh our Elohim.

³² And so be it, whoever calls on the name of Yah Veh is rescued: for in mount Siyon and in Yeru Shalem is an escape, as Yah Veh says, and in the survivors whom Yah Veh calls.

²¹ For I exonerate their blood which I had not exonerated: for Yah Veh tabernacles in Siyon.

¹⁷ And on mount Siyon becomes an escape and there becomes a holies; and the house of Yaaqov possesses their possessions.

¹
THE FIRST SCRIBING
To the angel of the ecclesia of Ephesians, scribe: Thus words he who empowers the seven stars in his right; who walks midst the seven golden menorah:

⁵ He who harvests in summer is a comprehending son; he who sleeps soundly in harvest is a son who shames.

¹
THE PARABLE OF THE TEN VIRGINS
Then the sovereigndom of the heavens is likened to ten virgins who take their lamps and go to meet the bridegroom: ² and five are thoughtful, and five are foolish: ³ the foolish take their lamps, and take no olive oil with them: ⁴ but the thoughtful take olive oil in their vessels with their lamps: ⁵ but the bridegroom takes his time and they all slumber and sleep: ⁶ and at midnight there becomes a cry, Behold, the bridegroom comes! Go meet him! ⁷ Then all those virgins rise and adorn their lamps: ⁸ and the foolish say to the thoughtful, Give us of your olive oil, for our lamps are quenched. ⁹ And the thoughtful answer, wording, Not so; lest ever there is not sufficient for us and you: but go rather to them who sell and market for yourselves. ¹⁰ And while they go to market, the bridegroom comes; and the prepared enter with him to the marriage: and they shut the portal. ¹¹ Afterward the rest of the virgins also come, wording, Adoni, Adoni, open to us. ¹² And he answers, saying, Amen! I word to you, I know you not.

²⁵ for from whenever the housedespotes rises and locks the portal; and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the portal, wording, Adonay, Adonay, open to us; - and he answers you, saying, I know not whence you are:

⁴⁴ and raze you and your children within you; and they allow not stone upon stone in you; because you know not the season of your visitation.

⁷ So, exactly as the Holy Spirit words, Today whenever you hear his voice, ⁸ harden not your hearts as in the provocation, in the day of testing in the wilderness: ⁹ where your fathers tested me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. ¹⁰ So I was perturbed with that generation and said, They ever wander in their heart; and they know not my ways. ¹¹ So I oathed in my wrath, If they enter my shabbath - . ^{Psalm 95:7-11 12} See, brothers, lest there ever be in any of you an evil heart of trustlessness in departing from the living Elohim; ¹³ but console yourselves each day, as long as it is called Today; lest any of you harden through the delusion of sin. ¹⁴ For we become partakers of the Messiah whenever we hold to the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the completion/shalom; ¹⁵ in wording, Today, whenever you hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. ^{Psalm 95:7,8}

³ and say to the sovereign, The sovereign live eternally. Why not, my evil face, when the city, the house of the tombs of my father, is parched; and the portals thereof consume with fire?

³ for there our captors asked us the words of a song - our howlers, of cheer, Sing us a song of Siyon! ⁴ How sing we a song of Yah Veh in a strange soil? ⁵ If I forget you, O Yeru Shalem, my right forgets: ⁶ if I remember you not, my tongue adheres to my palate - if I ascend not Yeru Shalem, above the head of my cheer.

⁵ I am black and comely O you daughters of Yeru Shalem; - as the tents of Qedar - as the curtains of Shelomoh. ⁶ See me not, because I am black; because the sun tanned me; the sons of my mother scorched me; they set me to guard the vineyards; my vineyard - my own I guarded not.

¹⁹ My inwards! My inwards! I writhe at the walls of my heart; my heart roars within me; I cannot hush, because you hear, O my soul, the voice of the shophar - the blast of war.

A LAMENTATION OVER SIYON
Oh that it be, that my head be as waters; and my eyes as a fountain of tears; and I weep day and night for the pierced of the daughter of my people!

¹⁷ You, say this word to them; My eyes drip with tears night and day and they cease not: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breaking - with a mighty stroking stroke.

¹⁶ I neither hasten from tending after you nor desire I the incurable day: you, you know that what proceeds from my lips is straightforward at your face.

⁶ In front of their face the people writhe: all faces gather flushness:

¹⁰ she is empty and void and wasted: and the heart melts and the knees knock and much pain in all loins; and all their faces gather flushness.

⁴¹ And as he approaches he sees the city and weeps over it,

THE SELECTION OF YISRA EL BY ELOHIM
I word the truth in Messiah; I lie not; my conscience also co-witnesses in the Holy Spirit; ² that I have mega sorrow and unceasing grief in my heart. ³ For I vowed - I myself to be anathema from the Messiah for my brothers - my kin according to the flesh:

²⁵ and they sit down to eat bread: and they lift their eyes and see, and behold, a caravan of Yishma Eliy coming from Gilad with their camels - bearing spicery and balm and myrrh going to descend to Misrayim.

¹¹ And their father Yisra El says to them, If so, now work this; take of the best pluckings in the land in your instruments and descend an offering to the man - a little balm and a little honey, spices and myrrh, pistachios and almonds:

⁵ Why be smitten any more? You increase revolt; the whole head is sick; and the whole heart bleeds: ⁶ from the sole of the foot to the head there is no integrity therein: - wounds and lashes and dripping wounds - neither squeezed nor bound; nor tenderized with ointment.

¹² For thus says Yah Veh: Your breech is incurable and your wound is worn: ¹³ - no one pleads your cause - bandages you, no bandage healers. ¹⁴ All your lovers forget you; they seek you not: for I smite you with the wound of an enemy; with the chastisement of a cruel one; for the abundance of your perversity; your sins are mighty. ¹⁵ Why cry for your breech? your sorrow is incurable for the abundance of your perversity: your sins are mighty, I worked these to you. ¹⁶ So all who consume you are consumed; and all your tribulators - every one of them go into captivity; and they who plunder you, are plundered; and all who plunder you, I give for a plunder: 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.

¹¹ Ascend into Gilad, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Misrayim: you abound your healers in vain for they bandage you not.

⁸ Suddenly Babel falls and breaks: howl for her; take balm for her sorrow, if so be, she heals.

¹¹ And when the Pharisees see, they say to his disciples, Your Doctor, why eats he with customs agents and sinners? ¹² And Yah Shua hears, and says to them, The able need no healer, but they who are ill:

³¹ And Yah Shua answers them, saying, They who are whole need not a healer; but they who are ill. ³² I come not to call the just, but sinners to repentance.

WOMAN TOUCHES YAH SHUA
And a woman having a flux of blood twelve years; who spent all her subsistence on healers and could not be cured by any,
