λέγει οὖν εἷς ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ Ἰούδας Σίμωνος Ἰσκαριώτης ὁ μέλλων αὐτὸν παραδιδόναι
Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,
ἦσαν δέ τινες ἀγανακτοῦντες πρὸς ἑαυτούς καὶ λέγοντες Εἰς τί ἡ ἀπώλεια αὕτη τοῦ μύρου γέγονεν
And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
וַיֹּאמֶר נִרְפִּים אַתֶּם נִרְפִּים עַל-כֵּן אַתֶּם אֹֽמְרִים נֵֽלְכָה נִזְבְּחָה לַֽיהוָֽה׃
But he said, Ye are idle, ye are idle: therefore ye say, Let us go and do sacrifice to the LORD.
וַיִּשְׁמַע אֱלִיאָב אָחִיו הַגָּדוֹל בְּדַבְּרוֹ אֶל-הָֽאֲנָשִׁים וַיִּֽחַר-אַף אֱלִיאָב בְּדָוִד וַיֹּאמֶר׀ לָמָּה-זֶּה יָרַדְתָּ וְעַל-מִי נָטַשְׁתָּ מְעַט הַצֹּאן הָהֵנָּה בַּמִּדְבָּר אֲנִי יָדַעְתִּי אֶת-זְדֹֽנְךָ וְאֵת רֹעַ לְבָבֶךָ כִּי לְמַעַן רְאוֹת הַמִּלְחָמָה יָרָֽדְתָּ׃
And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת לֵאמֹר הָעָם הַזֶּה אָֽמְרוּ לֹא עֶת-בֹּא עֶת-בֵּית יְהוָה לְהִבָּנֽוֹת׃
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD's house should be built.
וְרָאִיתִֽי אֲנִי אֶת-כָּל-עָמָל וְאֵת כָּל-כִּשְׁרוֹן הַֽמַּעֲשֶׂה כִּי הִיא קִנְאַת-אִישׁ מֵרֵעֵהוּ גַּם-זֶה הֶבֶל וּרְעוּת רֽוּחַ׃
Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbour. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
לֵאמֹר מָתַי יַעֲבֹר הַחֹדֶשׁ וְנַשְׁבִּירָה שֶּׁבֶר וְהַשַּׁבָּת וְנִפְתְּחָה-בָּר לְהַקְטִין אֵיפָה וּלְהַגְדִּיל שֶׁקֶל וּלְעַוֵּת מֹאזְנֵי מִרְמָֽה׃
Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
וַאֲמַרְתֶּם הִנֵּה מַתְּלָאָה וְהִפַּחְתֶּם אוֹתוֹ אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת וַהֲבֵאתֶם גָּזוּל וְאֶת-הַפִּסֵּחַ וְאֶת-הַחוֹלֶה וַהֲבֵאתֶם אֶת-הַמִּנְחָה הַאֶרְצֶה אוֹתָהּ מִיֶּדְכֶם אָמַר יְהוָֽה׃
Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith the LORD.
מַגִּישִׁים עַֽל-מִזְבְּחִי לֶחֶם מְגֹאָל וַאֲמַרְתֶּם בַּמֶּה גֵֽאַלְנוּךָ בֶּאֱמָרְכֶם שֻׁלְחַן יְהוָה נִבְזֶה הֽוּא׃
Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the LORD is contemptible.
