30 “Woe to the rebellious children”

—the declaration of Yahweh—

“making counsel, but not from me,

and pouring out a libation, but not by my Spirit,

so as to add sin upon sin.

2 The ones having gone to descend to Egypt

—but they did not ask my mouth—

to be strong in the stronghold of Pharaoh

and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt.

3 And the stronghold of Pharaoh will be to you for shame,

and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt, for humiliation.

4 Though his princes are in Zoan

and his messengers have reached Hanes,

5 everyone will have shame

because of a people who do not benefit them,

not for help and not for benefit,

but for shame and also for reproach.”

6 The burden of the beasts of the Negev.

Through a land of trouble and distress,

from them the lioness and the lion,

the viper and the flying serpent,

they carry their riches on the shoulder of donkeys

and their treasures, on the hump of camels

to a people who do not benefit them.

7 And Egypt, with emptiness and vanity they will help.

Therefore I have called this one,

“Rahab, they are stillness.”

8 Come now, write it on a tablet before them

and inscribe it on a scroll,

that it may be for a later day,

as a witness until forever.

9 For it is a people of rebellion,

false sons,

sons who are not willing to hear the law of Yahweh,

10 who say to the seers, “Do not see,”

and to the visionaries, “Do not envision truths for us.

Speak flatteries to us;

envision deceptions.

11 Turn aside from the way;

turn away from the path.

Make the Holy One of Israel cease from our faces.”

12 Therefore, thus says the Holy One of Israel:

“Because you reject this word

and you trust in oppression and crookedness

and you support yourselves on it,

13 therefore this iniquity will be to you

like a breach falling,

a bulge in a high wall,

whose breaking comes suddenly,

in an instant.

14 And he will break it like the breaking of a vessel of potters,

crushed, one does not spare.

And a shard will not be found among its fragments

to take fire from a hearth

or to scoop water from a cistern.”

15 For thus says the Lord, Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel:

“In returning and rest you will be saved;

in quietness and in trust will be your strength.

But you were not willing.

16 And you said, ‘No, for on horses we will flee’

—therefore you will flee—

and ‘on the swift we will ride’

—therefore your pursuers will be swift.

17 One thousand, from the face of the rebuke of one;

from the face of the rebuke of five, you will flee,

until that you are left like a flagpole on the head of a mountain

and like a banner on a hill.

18 And therefore Yahweh waits to favor you,

and therefore he arises to have compassion on you.

For Yahweh is a God of justice;

the happiness of all of the ones waiting for him!

19 For a people in Zion will dwell in Jerusalem. Weeping, you will not weep. Favoring, he will favor you at the sound of your crying out. When he hears it, he will answer you. 20 And the Lord may give to you bread of trouble and water of affliction, yet your teachers will not hide himself anymore, but your eyes will be seeing your teachers. 21 And your ears will hear a word from behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left. 22 And you will defile the overlaying of the idols of your silver and the plating of the molded images of your gold. You will throw them away like a menstrual cloth. “Get out!” you will say to it.

23 And he will give rain for your seed with which you sow the ground, and bread of the produce of the ground, and it will be rich and fat. In that day, your livestock will graze in a broadened pasture. 24 And the oxen and the donkeys, the workers of the ground, will eat salty fodder that one is winnowing with a shovel and with a pitchfork. 25 And on every high mountain and on every uplifted hill will be streams, courses of waters, in the day of great slaughter, when towers fall. 26 And the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold, like the light of seven days, in the day Yahweh binds up the breaking of his people and heals the wound of its striking.

27 Behold, the name of Yahweh comes from afar;

his nose is burning, and heavy is the smoke.

His lips are full of fury,

and his tongue is like a devouring fire.

28 And his breath is like an overflowing torrent;

it reaches to the neck,

to sift the nations in the sieve of destruction,

and a bridle leading astray

will be on the jaws of the peoples.

29 A song will be to you

as in the night of consecrating a feast,

and gladness of heart, as one walking with a flute

to come onto the mountain of Yahweh,

to the Rock of Israel.

30 And Yahweh will make the majesty of his voice heard,

and he will show the descent of his arm

in wrath of nose and flame of devouring fire,

a cloudburst and tempest and stones of hail.

31 For at the voice of Yahweh, Assyria will be dismayed;

he will strike them with a rod.

32 And every stroke of the appointed staff

that Yahweh lays on him

will be with tambourines and with harps,

and in battles of brandishing he will fight with them.

33 For Topheth has been arrayed from long ago;

indeed, it, it has been prepared for the king.

He has deepened, he has widened, its pile;

he makes fire and wood abundant.

The breath of Yahweh, like a torrent of brimstone,

will be kindling it.
