כָּל-כְּלִי יוּצַר עָלַיִךְ לֹא יִצְלָח וְכָל-לָשׁוֹן תָּֽקוּם-אִתָּךְ לַמִּשְׁפָּט תַּרְשִׁיעִי זֹאת נַחֲלַת עַבְדֵי יְהוָה וְצִדְקָתָם מֵאִתִּי נְאֻם-יְהוָֽה׃
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
הֵן יֵבֹשׁוּ וְיִכָּלְמוּ כֹּל הַנֶּחֱרִים בָּךְ יִֽהְיוּ כְאַיִן וְיֹאבְדוּ אַנְשֵׁי רִיבֶֽךָ׃
Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.
קָרוֹב מַצְדִּיקִי מִֽי-יָרִיב אִתִּי נַעַמְדָה יָּחַד מִֽי-בַעַל מִשְׁפָּטִי יִגַּשׁ אֵלָֽי׃
He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
ὡς καὶ ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς μαρτυρεῖ μοι καὶ πᾶν τὸ πρεσβυτέριον παρ' ὧν καὶ ἐπιστολὰς δεξάμενος πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς εἰς Δαμασκὸν ἐπορευόμην ἄξων καὶ τοὺς ἐκεῖσε ὄντας δεδεμένους εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἵνα τιμωρηθῶσιν
As also the high priest doth bear witness, me and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.
וּלְכֹל׀ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא יֶֽחֱרַץ-כֶּלֶב לְשֹׁנוֹ לְמֵאִישׁ וְעַד-בְּהֵמָה לְמַעַן תֵּֽדְעוּן אֲשֶׁר יַפְלֶה יְהוָה בֵּין מִצְרַיִם וּבֵין יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.
