וְלֹֽא-הֹסִיף עוֹד מֶלֶךְ מִצְרַיִם לָצֵאת מֵֽאַרְצוֹ כִּֽי-לָקַח מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל מִנַּחַל מִצְרַיִם עַד-נְהַר-פְּרָת כֹּל אֲשֶׁר הָֽיְתָה לְמֶלֶךְ מִצְרָֽיִם׃
And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt.
וַתִּבָּקַע הָעִיר וְכָל-אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה׀ הַלַּיְלָה דֶּרֶךְ שַׁעַר׀ בֵּין הַחֹֽמֹתַיִם אֲשֶׁר עַל-גַּן הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכַשְׂדִּים עַל-הָעִיר סָבִיב וַיֵּלֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ הָֽעֲרָבָֽה׃
And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.
וַיִּרְדְּפוּ חֵיל-כַּשְׂדִּים אַחַר הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּשִּׂגוּ אֹתוֹ בְּעַֽרְבוֹת יְרֵחוֹ וְכָל-חֵילוֹ נָפֹצוּ מֵֽעָלָֽיו׃
And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
חוּרַי מִנַּחֲלֵי גָעַשׁ אֲבִיאֵל הָֽעַרְבָתִֽי׃
Hurai of the brooks of Gaash, Abiel the Arbathite,
וַיַּעַשׂ שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת-הֶחָג בָּעֵת הַהִיא שִׁבְעַת יָמִים וְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל עִמּוֹ קָהָל גָּדוֹל מְאֹד מִלְּבוֹא חֲמָת עַד-נַחַל מִצְרָֽיִם׃
Also at the same time Solomon kept the feast seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt.
וְגַֽם-מַעֲכָה אֵם׀ אָסָא הַמֶּלֶךְ הֱסִירָהּ מִגְּבִירָה אֲשֶׁר-עָֽשְׂתָה לָאֲשֵׁרָה מִפְלָצֶת וַיִּכְרֹת אָסָא אֶת-מִפְלַצְתָּהּ וַיָּדֶק וַיִּשְׂרֹף בְּנַחַל קִדְרֽוֹן׃
And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
מָחָר רְדוּ עֲלֵיהֶם הִנָּם עֹלִים בְּמַֽעֲלֵה הַצִּיץ וּמְצָאתֶם אֹתָם בְּסוֹף הַנַּחַל פְּנֵי מִדְבַּר יְרוּאֵֽל׃
To morrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
וַיָּבֹאוּ הַכֹּֽהֲנִים לִפְנִימָה בֵית-יְהוָה לְטַהֵר וַיּוֹצִיאוּ אֵת כָּל-הַטֻּמְאָה אֲשֶׁר מָֽצְאוּ בְּהֵיכַל יְהוָה לַֽחֲצַר בֵּית יְהוָה וַֽיְקַבְּלוּ הַלְוִיִּם לְהוֹצִיא לְנַֽחַל-קִדְרוֹן חֽוּצָה׃
And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the LORD, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the LORD into the court of the house of the LORD. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad into the brook Kidron.
וַיָּקֻמוּ וַיָּסִירוּ אֶת-הַֽמִּזְבְּחוֹת אֲשֶׁר בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וְאֵת כָּל-הַֽמְקַטְּרוֹת הֵסִירוּ וַיַּשְׁלִיכוּ לְנַחַל קִדְרֽוֹן׃
And they arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense took they away, and cast them into the brook Kidron.
וַיִּקָּֽבְצוּ עַם-רָב וַֽיִּסְתְּמוּ אֶת-כָּל-הַמַּעְיָנוֹת וְאֶת-הַנַּחַל הַשּׁוֹטֵף בְּתוֹךְ-הָאָרֶץ לֵאמֹר לָמָּה יָבוֹאוּ מַלְכֵי אַשּׁוּר וּמָֽצְאוּ מַיִם רַבִּֽים׃
So there was gathered together, much people who stopped all the fountains, and the brook that ran through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?
וְאַֽחֲרֵי-כֵן בָּנָה חוֹמָה חִֽיצוֹנָה׀ לְעִיר-דָּוִיד מַעְרָבָה לְגִיחוֹן בַּנַּחַל וְלָבוֹא בְשַׁעַר הַדָּגִים וְסָבַב לָעֹפֶל וַיַּגְבִּיהֶהָ מְאֹד וַיָּשֶׂם שָֽׂרֵי-חַיִל בְּכָל-הֶֽעָרִים הַבְּצֻרוֹת בִּֽיהוּדָֽה׃
Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
וָֽאֱהִי עֹלֶה בַנַּחַל לַיְלָה וָֽאֱהִי שֹׂבֵר בַּֽחוֹמָה וָֽאָשׁוּב וָֽאָבוֹא בְּשַׁעַר הַגַּיְא וָֽאָשֽׁוּב׃
Then went I up in the night by the brook, and viewed the wall, and turned back, and entered by the gate of the valley, and so returned.
אַחַי בָּֽגְדוּ כְמוֹ-נָחַל כַּֽאֲפִיק נְחָלִים יַֽעֲבֹֽרוּ׃
My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away;
אַל-יֵרֶא בִפְלַגּוֹת נַהֲרֵי נַחֲלֵי דְּבַשׁ וְחֶמְאָֽה׃
He shall not see the rivers, the floods, the brooks of honey and butter.
מָֽתְקוּ-לוֹ רִגְבֵי נָחַל וְאַחֲרָיו כָּל-אָדָם יִמְשׁוֹךְ וּלְפָנָיו אֵין מִסְפָּֽר׃
The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.
וְשִׁית-עַל-עָפָר בָּצֶר וּבְצוּר נְחָלִים אוֹפִֽיר׃
Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.
הֵן פְּרָאִים׀ בַּֽמִּדְבָּר יָצְאוּ בְּפָעֳלָם מְשַׁחֲרֵי לַטָּרֶף עֲרָבָה לוֹ לֶחֶם לַנְּעָרִֽים׃
Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children.
פָּרַץ נַחַל׀ מֵֽעִם-גָּר הַֽנִּשְׁכָּחִים מִנִּי-רָגֶל דַּלּוּ מֵאֱנוֹשׁ נָֽעוּ׃
The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.
בַּעֲרוּץ נְחָלִים לִשְׁכֹּן חֹרֵי עָפָר וְכֵפִֽים׃
To dwell in the clifts of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks.
אֲשֶׁר-שַׂמְתִּי עֲרָבָה בֵיתוֹ וּֽמִשְׁכְּנוֹתָיו מְלֵֽחָה׃
Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.
יְסֻכֻּהוּ צֶאֱלִים צִֽלֲלוֹ יְסֻבּוּהוּ עַרְבֵי-נָֽחַל׃
The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
אֲפָפוּנִי חֶבְלֵי-מָוֶת וְֽנַחֲלֵי בְלִיַּעַל יְבַֽעֲתֽוּנִי׃
The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid.
יִרְוְיֻן מִדֶּשֶׁן בֵּיתֶךָ וְנַחַל עֲדָנֶיךָ תַשְׁקֵֽם׃
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
שִׁירוּ׀ לֵֽאלֹהִים זַמְּרוּ שְׁמוֹ סֹלּוּ לָרֹכֵב בָּעֲרָבוֹת בְּיָהּ שְׁמוֹ וְעִלְזוּ לְפָנָֽיו׃
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.
אַתָּה בָקַעְתָּ מַעְיָן וָנָחַל אַתָּה הוֹבַשְׁתָּ נַהֲרוֹת אֵיתָֽן׃
Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.
הֵן הִכָּה-צוּר׀ וַיָּזוּבוּ מַיִם וּנְחָלִים יִשְׁטֹפוּ הֲגַם-לֶחֶם יוּכַל תֵּת אִם-יָכִין שְׁאֵר לְעַמּֽוֹ׃
Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?
עֲשֵֽׂה-לָהֶם כְּמִדְיָן כְּֽסִֽיסְרָא כְיָבִין בְּנַחַל קִישֽׁוֹן׃
Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
הַֽמְשַׁלֵּחַ מַעְיָנִים בַּנְּחָלִים בֵּין הָרִים יְהַלֵּכֽוּן׃
He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills.
מִנַּחַל בַּדֶּרֶךְ יִשְׁתֶּה עַל-כֵּן יָרִים רֹֽאשׁ׃
He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
אֲזַי הַמַּיִם שְׁטָפוּנוּ נַחְלָה עָבַר עַל-נַפְשֵֽׁנוּ׃
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
מַיִם עֲמֻקִּים דִּבְרֵי פִי-אִישׁ נַחַל נֹבֵעַ מְקוֹר חָכְמָֽה׃
The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
עַיִן׀ תִּֽלְעַג לְאָב וְתָבֻז לִֽיקְּהַת-אֵם יִקְּרוּהָ עֹרְבֵי-נַחַל וְֽיֹאכְלוּהָ בְנֵי-נָֽשֶׁר׃
The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
כָּל-הַנְּחָלִים הֹלְכִים אֶל-הַיָּם וְהַיָּם אֵינֶנּוּ מָלֵא אֶל-מְקוֹם שֶׁהַנְּחָלִים הֹֽלְכִים שָׁם הֵם שָׁבִים לָלָֽכֶת׃
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.
אֶל-גִּנַּת אֱגוֹז יָרַדְתִּי לִרְאוֹת בְּאִבֵּי הַנָּחַל לִרְאוֹת הֲפָֽרְחָה הַגֶּפֶן הֵנֵצוּ הָרִמֹּנִֽים׃
I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.
וּבָאוּ וְנָחוּ כֻלָּם בְּנַחֲלֵי הַבַּתּוֹת וּבִנְקִיקֵי הַסְּלָעִים וּבְכֹל הַנַּעֲצוּצִים וּבְכֹל הַנַּהֲלֹלִֽים׃
And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.
וְהֶחֱרִים יְהוָה אֵת לְשׁוֹן יָם-מִצְרַיִם וְהֵנִיף יָדוֹ עַל-הַנָּהָר בַּעְיָם רוּחוֹ וְהִכָּהוּ לְשִׁבְעָה נְחָלִים וְהִדְרִיךְ בַּנְּעָלִֽים׃
And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.
עַל-כֵּן יִתְרָה עָשָׂה וּפְקֻדָּתָם עַל נַחַל הָעֲרָבִים יִשָּׂאֽוּם׃
Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
וְהָיָה בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא יַחְבֹּט יְהוָה מִשִּׁבֹּלֶת הַנָּהָר עַד-נַחַל מִצְרָיִם וְאַתֶּם תְּלֻקְּטוּ לְאַחַד אֶחָד בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
וְרוּחוֹ כְּנַחַל שׁוֹטֵף עַד-צַוָּאר יֶֽחֱצֶה לַהֲנָפָה גוֹיִם בְּנָפַת שָׁוְא וְרֶסֶן מַתְעֶה עַל לְחָיֵי עַמִּֽים׃
And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
כִּֽי-עָרוּךְ מֵֽאֶתְמוּל תָּפְתֶּה גַּם-(הוא) הִיא לַמֶּלֶךְ הוּכָן הֶעְמִיק הִרְחִב מְדֻרָתָהּ אֵשׁ וְעֵצִים הַרְבֵּה נִשְׁמַת יְהוָה כְּנַחַל גָּפְרִית בֹּעֲרָה בָּֽהּ׃
For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
אָבַל אֻמְלְלָה אָרֶץ הֶחְפִּיר לְבָנוֹן קָמַל הָיָה הַשָּׁרוֹן כָּֽעֲרָבָה וְנֹעֵר בָּשָׁן וְכַרְמֶֽל׃
The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
וְנֶהֶפְכוּ נְחָלֶיהָ לְזֶפֶת וַעֲפָרָהּ לְגָפְרִית וְהָיְתָה אַרְצָהּ לְזֶפֶת בֹּעֵרָֽה׃
And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
יְשֻׂשׂוּם מִדְבָּר וְצִיָּה וְתָגֵל עֲרָבָה וְתִפְרַח כַּחֲבַצָּֽלֶת׃
The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
אָז יְדַלֵּג כָּֽאַיָּל פִּסֵּחַ וְתָרֹן לְשׁוֹן אִלֵּם כִּֽי-נִבְקְעוּ בַמִּדְבָּר מַיִם וּנְחָלִים בָּעֲרָבָֽה׃
Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
קוֹל קוֹרֵא בַּמִּדְבָּר פַּנּוּ דֶּרֶךְ יְהוָה יַשְּׁרוּ בָּעֲרָבָה מְסִלָּה לֵאלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
אֶתֵּן בַּמִּדְבָּר אֶרֶז שִׁטָּה וַהֲדַס וְעֵץ שָׁמֶן אָשִׂים בָּעֲרָבָה בְּרוֹשׁ תִּדְהָר וּתְאַשּׁוּר יַחְדָּֽו׃
I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together:
כִּֽי-נִחַם יְהוָה צִיּוֹן נִחַם כָּל-חָרְבֹתֶיהָ וַיָּשֶׂם מִדְבָּרָהּ כְּעֵדֶן וְעַרְבָתָהּ כְּגַן-יְהוָה שָׂשׂוֹן וְשִׂמְחָה יִמָּצֵא בָהּ תּוֹדָה וְקוֹל זִמְרָֽה׃
For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
הַנֵּֽחָמִים בָּֽאֵלִים תַּחַת כָּל-עֵץ רַעֲנָן שֹׁחֲטֵי הַיְלָדִים בַּנְּחָלִים תַּחַת סְעִפֵי הַסְּלָעִֽים׃
Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?
בְּחַלְּקֵי-נַחַל חֶלְקֵךְ הֵם הֵם גּוֹרָלֵךְ גַּם-לָהֶם שָׁפַכְתְּ נֶסֶךְ הֶעֱלִית מִנְחָה הַעַל אֵלֶּה אֶנָּחֵֽם׃
Among the smooth stones of the stream is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured a drink offering, thou hast offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these?
כִּֽי-כֹה׀ אָמַר יְהוָה הִנְנִי נֹטֶֽה-אֵלֶיהָ כְּנָהָר שָׁלוֹם וּכְנַחַל שׁוֹטֵף כְּבוֹד גּוֹיִם וִֽינַקְתֶּם עַל-צַד תִּנָּשֵׂאוּ וְעַל-בִּרְכַּיִם תְּשָׁעֳשָֽׁעוּ׃
For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
וְלֹא אָמְרוּ אַיֵּה יְהוָה הַמַּעֲלֶה אֹתָנוּ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם הַמּוֹלִיךְ אֹתָנוּ בַּמִּדְבָּר בְּאֶרֶץ עֲרָבָה וְשׁוּחָה בְּאֶרֶץ צִיָּה וְצַלְמָוֶת בְּאֶרֶץ לֹֽא-עָבַר בָּהּ אִישׁ וְלֹֽא-יָשַׁב אָדָם שָֽׁם׃
Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?
עַל-כֵּן הִכָּם אַרְיֵה מִיַּעַר זְאֵב עֲרָבוֹת יְשָׁדְדֵם נָמֵר שֹׁקֵד עַל-עָרֵיהֶם כָּל-הַיּוֹצֵא מֵהֵנָּה יִטָּרֵף כִּי רַבּוּ פִּשְׁעֵיהֶם עָצְמוּ (משבותיהם) מְשׁוּבוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃
Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.
וְהָיָה כְּעַרְעָר בָּֽעֲרָבָה וְלֹא יִרְאֶה כִּי-יָבוֹא טוֹב וְשָׁכַן חֲרֵרִים בַּמִּדְבָּר אֶרֶץ מְלֵחָה וְלֹא תֵשֵֽׁב׃
For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
בִּבְכִי יָבֹאוּ וּֽבְתַחֲנוּנִים אֽוֹבִילֵם אֽוֹלִיכֵם אֶל-נַחֲלֵי מַיִם בְּדֶרֶךְ יָשָׁר לֹא יִכָּשְׁלוּ בָּהּ כִּֽי-הָיִיתִי לְיִשְׂרָאֵל לְאָב וְאֶפְרַיִם בְּכֹרִי הֽוּא׃
They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.
וְכָל-הָעֵמֶק הַפְּגָרִים׀ וְהַדֶּשֶׁן וְכָֽל-(השרמות) הַשְּׁדֵמוֹת עַד-נַחַל קִדְרוֹן עַד-פִּנַּת שַׁעַר הַסּוּסִים מִזְרָחָה קֹדֶשׁ לַֽיהוָה לֹֽא-יִנָּתֵשׁ וְֽלֹא-יֵהָרֵס עוֹד לְעוֹלָֽם׃
And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.
וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר רָאָם צִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה וְכֹל׀ אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה וַֽיִּבְרְחוּ וַיֵּצְאוּ לַיְלָה מִן-הָעִיר דֶּרֶךְ גַּן הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּשַׁעַר בֵּין הַחֹמֹתָיִם וַיֵּצֵא דֶּרֶךְ הָעֲרָבָֽה׃
And it came to pass, that when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate betwixt the two walls: and he went out the way of the plain.
וַיִּרְדְּפוּ חֵיל-כַּשְׂדִּים אַחֲרֵיהֶם וַיַּשִּׂגוּ אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ בְּעַֽרְבוֹת יְרֵחוֹ וַיִּקְחוּ אֹתוֹ וַֽיַּעֲלֻהוּ אֶל-נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל רִבְלָתָה בְּאֶרֶץ חֲמָת וַיְדַבֵּר אִתּוֹ מִשְׁפָּטִֽים׃
But the Chaldeans' army pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him.
כֹּה׀ אָמַר יְהוָה הִנֵּה-מַיִם עֹלִים מִצָּפוֹן וְהָיוּ לְנַחַל שׁוֹטֵף וְיִשְׁטְפוּ אֶרֶץ וּמְלוֹאָהּ עִיר וְיֹשְׁבֵי בָהּ וְזָֽעֲקוּ הָֽאָדָם וְהֵילִל כֹּל יוֹשֵׁב הָאָֽרֶץ׃
Thus saith the LORD; Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and shall be an overflowing flood, and shall overflow the land, and all that is therein; the city, and them that dwell therein: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.
בּוֹשָׁה אִמְּכֶם מְאֹד חָפְרָה יֽוֹלַדְתְּכֶם הִנֵּה אַחֲרִית גּוֹיִם מִדְבָּר צִיָּה וַעֲרָבָֽה׃
Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
הָיוּ עָרֶיהָ לְשַׁמָּה אֶרֶץ צִיָּה וַעֲרָבָה אֶרֶץ לֹֽא-יֵשֵׁב בָּהֵן כָּל-אִישׁ וְלֹֽא-יַעֲבֹר בָּהֵן בֶּן-אָדָֽם׃
Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.
וַתִּבָּקַע הָעִיר וְכָל-אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה יִבְרְחוּ וַיֵּצְאוּ מֵהָעִיר לַיְלָה דֶּרֶךְ שַׁעַר בֵּין-הַחֹמֹתַיִם אֲשֶׁר עַל-גַּן הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכַשְׂדִּים עַל-הָעִיר סָבִיב וַיֵּלְכוּ דֶּרֶךְ הָעֲרָבָֽה׃
Then the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldeans were by the city round about:) and they went by the way of the plain.
וַיִּרְדְּפוּ חֵיל-כַּשְׂדִּים אַחֲרֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּשִּׂיגוּ אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ בְּעַֽרְבֹת יְרֵחוֹ וְכָל-חֵילוֹ נָפֹצוּ מֵעָלָֽיו׃
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
צָעַק לִבָּם אֶל-אֲדֹנָי חוֹמַת בַּת-צִיּוֹן הוֹרִידִי כַנַּחַל דִּמְעָה יוֹמָם וָלַיְלָה אַֽל-תִּתְּנִי פוּגַת לָךְ אַל-תִּדֹּם בַּת-עֵינֵֽךְ׃
Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
וַיָּמָד אֶלֶף נַחַל אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-אוּכַל לַעֲבֹר כִּֽי-גָאוּ הַמַּיִם מֵי שָׂחוּ נַחַל אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-יֵעָבֵֽר׃
Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי הֲרָאִיתָ בֶן-אָדָם וַיּוֹלִכֵנִי וַיְשִׁבֵנִי שְׂפַת הַנָּֽחַל׃
And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.
בְּשׁוּבֵנִי וְהִנֵּה אֶל-שְׂפַת הַנַּחַל עֵץ רַב מְאֹד מִזֶּה וּמִזֶּֽה׃
Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי הַמַּיִם הָאֵלֶּה יוֹצְאִים אֶל-הַגְּלִילָה הַקַּדְמוֹנָה וְיָרְדוּ עַל-הָֽעֲרָבָה וּבָאוּ הַיָּמָּה אֶל-הַיָּמָּה הַמּֽוּצָאִים (ונרפאו) וְנִרְפּוּ הַמָּֽיִם׃
Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.
וְהָיָה כָל-נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה׀ אֲֽשֶׁר-יִשְׁרֹץ אֶל כָּל-אֲשֶׁר יָבוֹא שָׁם נַחֲלַיִם יִֽחְיֶה וְהָיָה הַדָּגָה רַבָּה מְאֹד כִּי בָאוּ שָׁמָּה הַמַּיִם הָאֵלֶּה וְיֵרָֽפְאוּ וָחָי כֹּל אֲשֶׁר-יָבוֹא שָׁמָּה הַנָּֽחַל׃
And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh.
וְעַל-הַנַּחַל יַעֲלֶה עַל-שְׂפָתוֹ מִזֶּה׀ וּמִזֶּה׀ כָּל-עֵֽץ-מַאֲכָל לֹא-יִבּוֹל עָלֵהוּ וְלֹֽא-יִתֹּם פִּרְיוֹ לָֽחֳדָשָׁיו יְבַכֵּר כִּי מֵימָיו מִן-הַמִּקְדָּשׁ הֵמָּה יֽוֹצְאִים (והיו) וְהָיָה פִרְיוֹ לְמַֽאֲכָל וְעָלֵהוּ לִתְרוּפָֽה׃
And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
וּפְאַת נֶגֶב תֵּימָנָה מִתָּמָר עַד-מֵי מְרִיבוֹת קָדֵשׁ נַחֲלָה אֶל-הַיָּם הַגָּדוֹל וְאֵת פְּאַת-תֵּימָנָה נֶֽגְבָּה׃
And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this is the south side southward.
וְעַל גְּבוּל גָּד אֶל-פְּאַת נֶגֶב תֵּימָנָה וְהָיָה גְבוּל מִתָּמָר מֵי מְרִיבַת קָדֵשׁ נַחֲלָה עַל-הַיָּם הַגָּדֽוֹל׃
And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be even from Tamar unto the waters of strife in Kadesh, and to the river toward the great sea.
וְהָיָה בַיּוֹם הַהוּא יִטְּפוּ הֶהָרִים עָסִיס וְהַגְּבָעוֹת תֵּלַכְנָה חָלָב וְכָל-אֲפִיקֵי יְהוּדָה יֵלְכוּ מָיִם וּמַעְיָן מִבֵּית יְהוָה יֵצֵא וְהִשְׁקָה אֶת-נַחַל הַשִּׁטִּֽים׃
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
וְיִגַּל כַּמַּיִם מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה כְּנַחַל אֵיתָֽן׃
But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
כִּי הִנְנִי מֵקִים עֲלֵיכֶם בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי הַצְּבָאוֹת גּוֹי וְלָחֲצוּ אֶתְכֶם מִלְּבוֹא חֲמָת עַד-נַחַל הָעֲרָבָֽה׃
But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.
הֲיִרְצֶה יְהוָה בְּאַלְפֵי אֵילִים בְּרִֽבְבוֹת נַֽחֲלֵי-שָׁמֶן הַאֶתֵּן בְּכוֹרִי פִּשְׁעִי פְּרִי בִטְנִי חַטַּאת נַפְשִֽׁי׃
Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
יִסּוֹב כָּל-הָאָרֶץ כָּעֲרָבָה מִגֶּבַע לְרִמּוֹן נֶגֶב יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וְֽרָאֲמָה וְיָשְׁבָה תַחְתֶּיהָ לְמִשַּׁעַר בִּנְיָמִן עַד-מְקוֹם שַׁעַר הָֽרִאשׁוֹן עַד-שַׁעַר הַפִּנִּים וּמִגְדַּל חֲנַנְאֵל עַד יִקְבֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses.
