¹The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?

¹Ennustus Nägemuseoru kohta: Mis sul siis nüüd on, et oled tervenisti läinud katustele,

²O thou that art full of shoutings, a tumultuous city, a joyous town; thy slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.

²sa kärarikas, rahutu linn, ülemeelik linnake? Su tapetuid ei tapeta mõõgaga ega sure nad sõjas.

³All thy rulers fled away together, they were bound by the archers; all that were found of thee were bound together; they fled afar off.

³Kõik su juhid põgenevad üheskoos, võetakse vangi ammutagi. Kõik, kes su omadest leitakse, võetakse üheskoos vangi, kuigi põgenevad kaugele.

⁴Therefore said I, Look away from me, I will weep bitterly; labor not to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.

⁴Seepärast ma ütlen: Ärge vaadake mind, ma nutan kibedasti; ärge kippuge mind trööstima mu rahva tütre julma kohtlemise pärast!

⁵For it is a day of discomfiture, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, in the valley of vision; a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.

⁵Sest Jumalal, vägede Issandal, on Nägemuseorus jahmatuse, tallamise ja segaduse päev: müüride murdmine ja hädakisa mägedeni.

⁶And Elam bare the quiver, with chariots of men [and] horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.

⁶Eelam võtab nooletupe, sõjavankrite vooris on mehed ja ratsanikud, ja Kiir vabastab kilbi kattest.

⁷And it came to pass, that thy choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.

⁷Su ilusad orud täituvad vankritega ja ratsanikud asuvad otse väravate vastas.

⁸And he took away the covering of Judah; and thou didst look in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.

⁸Ta võtab ära Juuda kaitse ja sel päeval sa vaatad relvade poole Metsakojas.

⁹And ye saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many; and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool;

⁹Te näete, et Taaveti linnas on palju müürimurde, ja te kogute Alatiiki vett.

¹⁰and ye numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and ye brake down the houses to fortify the wall;

¹⁰Te loete üle Jeruusalemma kojad ja kisute kodasid maha, et kindlustada müüri.

¹¹ye made also a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But ye looked not unto him that had done this, neither had ye respect unto him that purposed it long ago.

¹¹Ja te teete müüride vahele mahuti Vanatiigi vee jaoks. Aga te ei vaata selle poole, kes seda teeb, ega näe, kes seda ammu valmistas.

¹²And in that day did the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:

¹²Jah, Jumal, vägede Issand, kutsub sel päeval nutma ja leinama, pead pügama ja kotiriiet ülle võtma.

¹³and behold, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine: let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we shall die.

¹³Aga vaata, siis on lust ja rõõm: härgade tapp ja lammaste veristus, süüakse liha ja juuakse veini. 'Söögem ja joogem, sest homme me sureme!'

¹⁴And Jehovah of hosts revealed himself in mine ears, Surely this iniquity shall not be forgiven you till ye die, saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.

¹⁴Kuid vägede Issand on mulle kõrva ilmutanud: Tõesti, seda süüd ei lepitata teile surmani, ütleb Jumal, vägede Issand.

¹⁵Thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, who is over the house, [and say],

¹⁵Nõnda ütleb Jumal, vägede Issand: Tule, mine selle valitseja juurde, Sebna juurde, kes on kojaülemaks, ja ütle:

¹⁶What doest thou here? and whom has thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out here a sepulchre? hewing him out a sepulchre on high, graving a habitation for himself in the rock!

¹⁶'Mis sul siin asja on ja kes sul siin on, et sa siin raiud enesele hauda, raiud oma haua kõrgele, uuristad enesele elamu kaljusse?

¹⁷Behold, Jehovah, like a [strong] man, will hurl thee away violently; yea, he will wrap thee up closely.

¹⁷Vaata, Issand viskab sind kaares kaugele vägeva mehe viskega, ja haarates sinust kõvasti kinni,

¹⁸He will surely wind thee round and round, [and toss thee] like a ball into a large country; there shalt thou die, and there shall be the chariots of thy glory, thou shame of thy lord's house.

¹⁸mässib ta sind koguni keraks ning virutab kui palli igati laiale maale: seal sa sured ja sinna jäävad su toredad vankrid, sina, oma isanda koja häbi.'

¹⁹And I will thrust thee from thine office; and from thy station shalt thou be pulled down.

¹⁹Mina tõukan sinu su ametist, ja sind aetakse ära su kohalt.

²⁰And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:

²⁰Ja sel päeval kutsun ma oma sulase Eljakimi, Hilkija poja,

²¹and I will cloth him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.

²¹panen temale selga sinu kuue, kinnitan talle vööle sinu vöö ja annan tema kätte sinu valitsuse: tema saab siis isandaks Jeruusalemma elanikele ja Juuda soole.

²²And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.

²²Ja ma panen Taaveti koja võtme temale õlale: tema avab ja ükski ei sule, tema suleb ja ükski ei ava.

²³And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a throne of glory to his father's house.

²³Mina löön ta nagu varna kindlasse kohta ja ta saab aujärjeks oma isa soole.

²⁴And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the flagons.

²⁴Tema külge riputatakse kogu ta isa soo koorem: võrsed ja lehed, kõik väiksed asjadki, kausikestest kuni igasuguste kruusideni.

²⁵In that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, shall the nail that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for Jehovah hath spoken it.

²⁵Siis, ütleb vägede Issand, annab järele kindlasse kohta löödud varn: see murdub ja langeb, ja koorem, mis selle küljes oli, puruneb. Jah, Issand on rääkinud.
