Yahweh Will Not Answer
1 And I said H559,
“Hear H8085 now H4994, heads H7218 of Jacob H3290
And rulers H7101 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478.
Is it not for you to know H3045 justice H4941?
2 “You who hate H8130 good H2896 and love H157 evil H7451,
Who tear H1497 off H1497 their skin H5785 from them
And their flesh H7607 from their bones H6106,
3 And who H834 eat H398 the flesh H7607 of my people H5971,
Strip H6584 off H6584 their skin H5785 from them,
Break H6476 their bones H6106,
And spread H6566 them out H6566 as for the pot H5518
And as meat H1320 in a caldron H7037.”
4 Then H227 they will cry H2199 out H2199 to Yahweh H3068,
But He will not answer H6030 them.
Instead, He will hide H5641 His face H6440 from them at that time H6256
Because H834 they have practiced H7489 evil H7489 deeds H4611.
5 Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 concerning H5921 the prophets H5030 who lead H8582 my people H5971 astray H8582;
When they have something to bite H5391 with their teeth H8127,
They call H7121 out H7121, “Peace H7965,”
But against H5921 him who H834 puts H5414 nothing H3808 in their mouths H6310,
They set H6942 themselves apart H6942 for war H4421.
6 Therefore H3651 it will be night H3915 for you—without H4480 vision H2377,
And darkness H2825 for you—without H4480 divination H7080.
The sun H8121 will go H935 down on the prophets H5030,
And the day H3117 will grow H6937 black H6937 over H5921 them.
7 The seers H2374 will be H954 ashamed H954,
And the diviners H7080 will be humiliated H2659.
Indeed, they will all H3605 cover H5844 their [fn]mouths H8222
Because H3588 there H369 is H369 no H369 answer H4617 from God H430.
8 On the other H199 hand H199 I am filled H4390 with power H3581—
With the Spirit H7307 of Yahweh H3068—
And with justice H4941 and might H1369
To declare H5046 to Jacob H3290 his transgression H6588,
Even to Israel H3478 his sin H2403.
9 Now H4994 hear H8085 this H2088, heads H7218 of the house H1004 of Jacob H3290
And rulers H7101 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478,
And twist H6140 everything H3605 that is straight H3477,
10 Who build H1129 Zion H6726 with bloodshed H1818
And Jerusalem H3389 with violent H5766 injustice H5766.
11 Her heads H7218 pronounce H8199 judgment H8199 for a bribe H7810,
And her priests H3548 instruct H3384 for a price H4242,
And her prophets H5030 divine H7080 for money H3701.
Yet they lean H8172 on Yahweh H3068 saying H559,
“Is not Yahweh H3068 in our midst H7130?
Evil H7451 will not come H935 upon us.”
12 Therefore H3651, on account H1558 of you
Zion H6726 will be plowed H2790 as a field H7704;
Jerusalem H3389 will become H1961 a heap H5856 of H5856 ruins H5856,
And the mountain H2022 of the house H1004 of God will become high H1116 places H1116 of a forest H3293.
