New Testament

Yeshayah 32:7-15 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. The schemes also of the schemer are ra'im (evil ones); he deviseth zimmot (wicked schemes) to destroy the poor with words of sheker, even when the evyon (needy) speaketh mishpat (justly).

8. But the noble maketh plans that are noble; and by noble things shall he stand.

9. Rise up, ye nashim that are complacently at ease; hear my voice, ye banot at ease; give ozen unto my speech.

10. Days and a shanah, then shall ye tremble, ye careless nashim; for the grape harvest shall fail, the harvest of fruit shall not come.

11. Tremble, ye nashim that are complacently at ease; shake, ye complacent ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.

12. They shall mournfully beat upon their breasts, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful gefen (vine).

13. Upon the admat Ami (land of My People) shall come up kotz (thorns) and briers; indeed, upon all the batim (houses) of joy in the city of merriment;

14. Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the Ir shall be abandoned; the citadel and stronghold shall be ruins ad olam, a delight of wild donkeys, a pasture of adarim (flocks);

15. Until the Ruach [Hakodesh] be poured upon us from on high, and the midbar become a carmel (fruitful field), and the carmel become a ya'ar (forest).
