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

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

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

²Thou that wast full of stir, a town of tumult, a joyous city: thy slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.

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

³All thy rulers have fled together, they are taken prisoners without the bow: all that are found of thee are made prisoners together; they were fleeing far off.

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

⁴Therefore said I, Look away from me; let me weep bitterly: labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.

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

⁵For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, in the valley of vision; [a day of] breaking down the wall, and of crying to the mountain:

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

⁶-- Elam beareth the quiver with chariots of men [and] horsemen; and Kir uncovereth the shield.

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

⁷And it shall come to pass [that] thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.

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

⁸And he uncovereth the covering of Judah: and thou didst look in that day to the armour in the house of the forest;

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

⁹and ye have seen the breaches of the city of David, that they are many; and ye have gathered together the waters of the lower pool;

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

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

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

¹¹and ye have made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not had regard unto the maker thereof, neither have ye looked unto him that fashioned it long ago.

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

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

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

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

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

¹⁴And it was revealed in mine ears by Jehovah of hosts: Assuredly this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.

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

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

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?

¹⁶What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewn thee out a sepulchre here, [as] he that heweth out his sepulchre on high, cutting out in the rock a habitation for himself?

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

¹⁷Behold, Jehovah will hurl thee with the force of a mighty man, and will cover thee entirely.

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.'

¹⁸Rolling thee up completely, he will roll thee as a ball into a wide country: there shalt thou die, and there shall be the chariots of thy glory, O shame of thy lord's house!

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

¹⁹And I will drive thee from thine office, and from thy station will I pull thee down.

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

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

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.

²¹and I will clothe 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.

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

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.

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

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:

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

²⁴and they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all the small vessels, as well the vessels of cups as all the vessels of flagons.

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.

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