6. Therefore lailah shall be unto you, because of the chazon; and choshech shall come upon you because of the soothsaying, the divination; and the shemesh shall go down over the nevi'im, and hayom shall be dark over them.
7. Then shall the chozim (seers) be ashamed, and the kosemim (diviners) blush in bushah; yea, they shall all cover their safam (mustache, i.e., their lips); ki ein ma'aneh Elohim (for there is no answer of G-d).
8. But truly I am full of ko'ach by the Ruach [Hakodesh] of Hashem, and of mishpat, and of gevurah (might), to preach unto Ya'akov his peysha, and to Yisroel his chattat. [Yeshayah 53:5,8,12]
9. Hear this, I pray you, ye Rashei Bais Ya'akov, and Ketzinim of Bais Yisroel, that abhor mishpat, and twist kol haYesharah (all the right, the straight).
10. Boneh Tziyon b'damim (they build up Tziyon with blood), and Yerushalayim with avlah (iniquity).
11. Her Rashim judge for a bribe, and her kohanim play the hireling moreh (teacher), and her nevi'im are fortunetellers for kesef; yet will they lean upon Hashem? And say, Is not Hashem among us? No ra'ah will come upon us.
12. Therefore because of you, Tziyon shall be plowed as a sadeh, and Yerushalayim shall become a rubble heap, and the Har HaBeis (HaMikdash, i.e., the Temple Mount) shall become a mound of scrubs. [T.N. fulfilled 586, B.C.E., 70 C.E.]
