1Sa aba ng putong ng kapalaluan ng mga manglalasing sa Ephraim, at ng lipas na bulaklak ng kaniyang maluwalhating kagandahan, na nasa ulunan ng mainam na libis nila na nadaig ng alak! 2Narito, ang Panginoon ay may isang makapangyarihan at malakas na sugo parang bagyo ng granizo, na manggigibang bagyo, parang unos ng bumubugsong tubig na bumabaha, ay ibubuwal niya sa lupa sa pamamagitan ng malakas na kamay. 3Ang putong ng kapalaluan ng mga manglalasing sa Ephraim ay mayayapakan ng paa: 4At ang lipas na bulaklak ng kaniyang maluwalhating kagandahan, na nasa ulunan ng mainam na libis, magiging gaya ng maagang hinog na bunga ng igos bago magtaginit; na kung nakikita ng tumitingin, samantalang na sa kaniyang kamay pa, kinakain na niya. 5Sa araw na yaon ay magiging putong ng kaluwalhatian ang Panginoon ng mga hukbo, at pinakadiadema ng kagandahan, sa nalabi sa kaniyang bayan; 6At pinaka diwa ng kahatulan sa kaniya na nauupo sa kahatulan, at pinakalakas sa kanila na umuurong sa pakikipagbaka hanggang sa pintuang-daan. 7Gayon man ang mga ito ay gumigiray dahil sa alak, at dahil sa matapang na alak ay pahapayhapay; ang saserdote at ang propeta ay gumigiray dahil sa matapang na alak, sila'y nangasakmal ng alak, sila'y pahapayhapay dahil sa matapang na alak: sila'y nangamamali sa pangitain, sila'y nangatitisod sa paghatol. 8Sapagka't lahat ng mga dulang ay puno ng suka, at ng karumihan, na anopa't walang dakong malinis. 9Kanino siya magtuturo ng kaalaman? at kanino niya ipatatalastas ang balita? silang nangalayo sa gatas, at nangahiwalay sa suso? 10Sapagka't utos at utos: utos at utos; bilin at bilin, bilin at bilin; dito'y kaunti, doo'y kaunti. 11Hindi, kundi sa pamamagitan ng mga taong may ibang pangungusap at may iba't ibang wika ay sasalitain niya sa bayang ito. 12Na kaniyang pinagsabihan, Ito ang kapahingahan, papagpahingahin ninyo siya na pagod; at ito ang kaginhawahan: gayon ma'y hindi nila pinakinggan. 13Kaya't ang salita ng Panginoon ay magiging sa kanila'y utos at utos, utos at utos; bilin at bilin, bilin at bilin; dito'y kaunti, doo'y kaunti; upang sila'y mangakayaon, at mangapahinga, at mangabalian, at mangasilo, at mangahuli. 14Kaya't iyong dinggin ang salita ng Panginoon, ninyong mga mangduduwahaging tao, na nangagpupuno sa bayang ito na nasa Jerusalem: 15Sapagka't inyong sinabi, Tayo'y nakipagtipan sa kamatayan, at sa Sheol ay nakipagkasundo tayo; pagka ang mahigpit na kasakunaan ay dumaan, hindi darating sa atin; sapagka't ating ginawang pinakakanlungan natin ang mga kabulaanan, at sa ilalim ng kasinungalingan ay nangagkubli tayo, 16Kaya't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios, Narito, aking inilalagay sa Sion na pinakapatibayan ang isang bato, isang batong subok, isang mahalagang batong panulok na may matibay na patibayan: ang naniniwala ay hindi magmamadali. 17At aking ilalagay na pinakapising panukat ang katuwiran, at pinakapabato ang kabanalan: at papalisin ng granizo ang kanlungan ng mga kabulaanan, at aapawan ng tubig ang taguang dako. 18At ang inyong tipan sa kamatayan ay mawawalan ng kabuluhan, at ang iyong pakikipagkasundo sa Sheol ay hindi mamamalagi; pagka ang mahigpit na kasakunaan ay daraan, kayo nga'y ipapahamak niyaon. 19Sa tuwing dadaan, tatangayin kayo; sapagka't tuwing umaga ay daraan, sa araw at sa gabi: at mangyayari na ang balita ay magiging kakilakilabot na matalastas. 20Sapagka't ang higaan ay lalong maikli na hindi maunatan ng tao; at ang kumot ay lalong makitid na hindi makabalot sa kaniya. 21Sapagka't ang Panginoon ay babangon na gaya sa bundok ng Perasim, siya'y napopoot na gaya sa libis ng Gabaon; upang kaniyang magawa ang kaniyang gawain, ang kaniyang kakaibang gawain, at papangyarihin ang kaniyang gawain, ang kaniyang kakaibang gawain. 22Huwag nga kayong mapagtuya, baka ang mga panali sa inyo ay magsitibay: sapagka't ang paglipol na ipinasiya, narinig ko sa Panginoon, sa Panginoon ng mga hukbo, sa buong lupa. 23Pakinggan ninyo, at dinggin ninyo ang aking tinig, inyong dinggin, at pakinggan ang aking pananalita. 24Nag-aararo bagang lagi ang mang-aararo upang maghasik? Kaniya bagang laging binubungkal at dinudurog ang kaniyang lupa. 25Pagka kaniyang napatag ang ibabaw niyaon hindi ba niya binibinhian ng eneldo, at ikinakalat ang binhing comino, at inihahanay ang trigo, at ang cebada sa takdang dako, at ang espelta sa hangganan niyaon? 26Sapagka't itinuturong matuwid sa kaniya ng kaniyang Dios, at itinuturo sa kaniya: 27Sapagka't ang eneldo ay hindi ginigiik ng panggiik na matalas, o ang gulong man ng karo ay gugulong sa comino; kundi ang eneldo ay hinahampas ng tungkod, at ang comino ay ng pamalo. 28Ang trigong ginagawang tinapay ay ginigiling; sapagka't hindi laging magigiik: at bagaman pangalatin yaon ng gulong ng kaniyang karo at ng kaniyang mga kabayo, hindi niya ginigiling. 29Gayon ma'y ito'y mula rin sa Panginoon ng mga hukbo, na kamanghamangha sa payo, at marilag sa karunungan.
1Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley of those who are overcome with wine! 2Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one. Like a storm of hail, a destroying storm, and like a storm of mighty waters overflowing, he will cast them down to the earth with his hand. 3The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden under foot. 4The fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley, shall be like the first-ripe fig before the summer; which someone picks and eats as soon as he sees it. 5In that day, Yahweh of Armies will become a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the residue of his people; 6and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate. 7They also reel with wine, and stagger with strong drink. The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink. They are swallowed up by wine. They stagger with strong drink. They err in vision. They stumble in judgment. 8For all tables are completely full of filthy vomit and filthiness. 9Whom will he teach knowledge? To whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts? 10For it is precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little. 11But he will speak to this nation with stammering lips and in another language; 12to whom he said, “This is the resting place. Give rest to weary”; and “This is the refreshing”; yet they would not hear. 13Therefore Yahweh’s word will be to them precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, fall backward, be broken, be snared, and be taken. 14Therefore hear Yahweh’s word, you scoffers, that rule this people in Jerusalem: 15“Because you have said, ‘We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol are we in agreement. When the overflowing scourge passes through, it won’t come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves under falsehood.’” 16Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh, “Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone of a sure foundation. He who believes shall not act hastily. 17I will make justice the measuring line, and righteousness the plumb line. The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters will overflow the hiding place. 18Your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand. When the overflowing scourge passes through, then you will be trampled down by it. 19As often as it passes through, it will seize you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be nothing but terror to understand the message.” 20For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap oneself in. 21For Yahweh will rise up as on Mount Perazim. He will be angry as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his unusual work, and bring to pass his act, his extraordinary act. 22Now therefore don’t be scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, on the whole earth. 23Give ear, and hear my voice! Listen, and hear my speech! 24Does he who plows to sow plow continually? Does he keep turning the soil and breaking the clods? 25When he has leveled its surface, doesn’t he plant the dill, and scatter the cumin seed, and put in the wheat in rows, the barley in the appointed place, and the spelt in its place? 26For his God instructs him in right judgment, and teaches him. 27For the dill are not threshed with a sharp instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned over the cumin; but the dill is beaten out with a stick, and the cumin with a rod. 28Bread flour must be ground; so he will not always be threshing it. Although he drives the wheel of his threshing cart over it, his horses don’t grind it. 29This also comes out from Yahweh of Armies, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
1Wee de hovaardige kroon der dronkenen van Efraim, welker heerlijk sieraad is een afvallende bloem, die daar is op het hoofd der zeer vette vallei, der geslagenen van den wijn. 2Ziet, de Heere heeft een sterke en machtige, er is gelijk een hagelvloed, een poort des verderfs; gelijk een vloed der sterke wateren; die overvloeien, zal Hij ze ter aarde nederwerpen met de hand. 3De hovaardige kronen der dronkenen van Efraim zullen met voeten vertreden worden. 4En de afvallende bloem zijns heerlijken sieraads, die op het hoofd der zeer vette vallei is, zal zijn gelijk een vroegrijpe vrucht voor den zomer, welke, wanneer ze iemand ziet, terwijl zij nog in zijn hand is, slokt hij ze op. 5Te dien dage zal de HEERE der heirscharen tot een heerlijke Kroon en tot een sierlijken Krans zijn den overgeblevenen Zijns volks. 6En tot een Geest des oordeels dien, die ten oordeel zit, en tot een sterkte dengenen, die den strijd afkeren tot de poort toe. 7En ook dwalen dezen van den wijn, en zij dolen van den sterken drank; de priester en de profeet dwalen van den sterken drank; zij zijn verslonden van den wijn, zij dolen van sterken drank; zij dwalen in het gezicht; zij waggelen in het gericht. 8Want alle tafels zijn vol van uitspuwsel en van drek, zodat er geen plaats schoon is. 9Wien zou Hij dan de kennis leren, en wien zou Hij het gehoorde te verstaan geven? Den gespeenden van de melk, den afgetrokkenen van de borsten? 10Want het is gebod op gebod, gebod op gebod, regel op regel, regel op regel, hier een weinig, daar een weinig. 11Daarom zal Hij door belachelijke lippen, en door een andere tong tot dit volk spreken; 12Tot dewelken Hij gezegd heeft: Dit is de rust, geeft den moeden rust, en dit is de verkwikking; doch zij hebben niet willen horen. 13Zo zal hun het woord des HEEREN zijn; gebod op gebod, gebod op gebod, regel op regel, regel op regel, hier een weinig, daar een weinig; opdat zij heengaan, en achterwaarts vallen, en verbreken, en verstrikt en gevangen worden. 14Daarom, hoort des HEEREN woord, gij bespotters, gij heersers over dit volk, dat te Jeruzalem is! 15Omdat gijlieden zegt: Wij hebben een verbond met den dood gemaakt, en met de hel hebben wij een voorzichtig verdrag gemaakt; wanneer de overvloeiende gesel doortrekken zal, zal hij tot ons niet komen; want wij hebben de leugen ons tot een toevlucht gesteld, en onder de valsheid hebben wij ons verborgen. 16Daarom, alzo zegt de Heere HEERE: Ziet, Ik leg een grondsteen in Sion, een beproefden steen, een kostelijken hoeksteen, die wel vast gegrondvest is; wie gelooft, die zal niet haasten. 17En Ik zal het gericht stellen naar het richtsnoer, en de gerechtigheid naar het paslood; en de hagel zal de toevlucht der leugen wegvagen, en de wateren zullen de schuilplaats overlopen. 18En ulieder verbond met den dood zal te niet worden, en uw voorzichtig verdrag met de hel zal niet bestaan; wanneer de overvloeiende gesel doortrekken zal, dan zult gijlieden van denzelven vertreden worden. 19Van den tijd af, als hij doortrekt, zal hij ulieden wegnemen, want allen morgen zal hij doortrekken, bij dag en bij nacht; en het zal geschieden, dat het gerucht te verstaan, enkel beroering wezen zal. 20Want het bed zal korter zijn, dan dat men zich daarop uitstrekken kunne; en het deksel zal te smal wezen, als men zich daaronder voegt. 21Want de HEERE zal Zich opmaken, gelijk op den berg Perazim, Hij zal beroerd zijn, gelijk in het dal van Gibeon, om Zijn werk te doen, Zijn werk zal vreemd zijn; en om Zijn daad te doen, Zijn daad zal vreemd zijn! 22Nu dan, drijft den spot niet, opdat uw banden niet vaster gemaakt worden; want ik heb van den Heere HEERE der heirscharen gehoord een verdelging, ja, een, die vast besloten is over het ganse land. 23Neemt ter ore en hoort mijn stem, merkt op en hoort mijn rede! 24Ploegt de ploeger den gehelen dag om te zaaien? Opent en egt hij zijn land den gehelen dag? 25Is het niet alzo? Wanneer hij het bovenste van hetzelve effen gemaakt heeft, dan strooit hij wikken, en spreidt komijn, of hij werpt er van de beste tarwe in, of uitgelezen gerst, of spelt, elk aan zijn plaats. 26En zijn God onderricht hem van de wijze, Hij leert hem. 27Want men dorst de wikken niet met den dorswagen, en men laat het wagenrad niet rondom over het komijn gaan; maar de wikken slaat men uit met een staf, en het komijn met een stok; 28Het brood koren moet verbrijzeld worden, maar hij dorst het niet geduriglijk dorsende; noch hij breekt het met het wiel zijn wagens, noch hij verbrijzelt het met zijn paarden. 29Zulks komt ook voort van den HEERE der heirscharen; Hij is wonderlijk van raad, Hij is groot van daad.
