| 29:1 | Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices. |
| 29:2 | Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel. |
| 29:3 | And I will camp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with a mount, and I will raise forts against thee. |
| 29:4 | And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust. |
| 29:5 | Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly. |
| 29:6 | Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire. |
| 29:7 | And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision. |
| 29:8 | It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion. |
| 29:9 | Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. |
| 29:10 | For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered. |
| 29:11 | And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed: |
| 29:12 | And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned. |
| 29:13 | Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: |
| 29:14 | Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. |
| 29:15 | Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us? |
| 29:16 | Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding? |
| 29:17 | Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest? |
| 29:18 | And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness. |
| 29:19 | The meek also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. |
| 29:20 | For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed, and all that watch for iniquity are cut off: |
| 29:21 | That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought. |
| 29:22 | Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale. |
| 29:23 | But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel. |
| 29:24 | They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine. |

| 29:3 | וחניתי כדור עליך וצרתי עליך מצב והקימתי עליך מצרת׃ |

| 29:13 | ויאמר אדני יען כי נגשׁ העם הזה בפיו ובשׂפתיו כבדוני ולבו רחק ממני ותהי יראתם אתי מצות אנשׁים מלמדה׃ |
| 29:14 | לכן הנני יוסף להפליא את העם הזה הפלא ופלא ואבדה חכמת חכמיו ובינת נבניו תסתתר׃ |
| 29:15 | הוי המעמיקים מיהוה לסתר עצה והיה במחשׁך מעשׂיהם ויאמרו מי ראנו ומי יודענו׃ |
| 29:16 | הפככם אם כחמר היצר יחשׁב כי יאמר מעשׂה לעשׂהו לא עשׂני ויצר אמר ליוצרו לא הבין׃ |
| 29:17 | הלוא עוד מעט מזער ושׁב לבנון לכרמל והכרמל ליער יחשׁב׃ |
| 29:18 | ושׁמעו ביום ההוא החרשׁים דברי ספר ומאפל ומחשׁך עיני עורים תראינה׃ |
| 29:19 | ויספו ענוים ביהוה שׂמחה ואביוני אדם בקדושׁ ישׂראל יגילו׃ |
| 29:20 | כי אפס עריץ וכלה לץ ונכרתו כל שׁקדי און׃ |

| 29:24 | וידעו תעי רוח בינה ורוגנים ילמדו לקח׃ |
| 29:1 | Wo `to' Ariel, Ariel, The city of the encampment of David! Add year to year, let festivals go round. |
| 29:2 | And I have sent distress to Ariel, And it hath been lamentation and mourning, And it hath been to me as Ariel. |
| 29:3 | And I encamped, O babbler, against thee, And I laid siege against thee -- a camp. And I raised up against thee bulwarks. |
| 29:4 | And thou hast been low, From the earth thou speakest, And from the dust makest thy saying low, And thy voice hath been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And from the dust thy saying whisperest, |
| 29:5 | And as small dust hath been The multitude of those scattering thee, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it hath been at an instant -- suddenly. |
| 29:6 | By Jehovah of Hosts thou art inspected, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, hurricane, and whirlwind, And flame of devouring fire. |
| 29:7 | And as a dream, a vision of night, hath been The multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her. |
| 29:8 | And it hath been, as when the hungry dreameth, And lo, he is eating, And he hath waked, and empty `is' his soul, And as when the thirsty dreameth, And lo, he is drinking, and he hath waked, And lo, he is weary, and his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against mount Zion. |
| 29:9 | Tarry and wonder, look ye, yea, look, Be drunk, and not with wine, Stagger, and not with strong drink. |
| 29:10 | For poured out on you hath Jehovah a spirit of deep sleep, And He closeth your eyes -- the prophets, And your heads -- the seers -- He covered. |
| 29:11 | And the vision of the whole is to you, As words of the sealed book, That they give unto one knowing books, Saying, `Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, `I am not able, for it `is' sealed;' |
| 29:12 | And the book is given to him who hath not known books, Saying, `Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, `I have not known books.' |
| 29:13 | And the Lord saith: Because drawn near hath this people, with its mouth, And with its lips they have honoured Me, And its heart it hath put far off from Me, And their fear of Me is -- A precept of men is taught! |
| 29:14 | Therefore, lo, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And perished hath the wisdom of its wise ones, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hideth itself.' |
| 29:15 | Wo `to' those going deep from Jehovah to hide counsel, And whose works have been in darkness. And they say, `Who is seeing us? And who is knowing us?' |
| 29:16 | Your perversion! as clay is the potter esteemed? That the work saith of its maker, `He hath not made me?' And the framed thing said of its framer, `He did not understand?' |
| 29:17 | Is it not yet a very little, And turned hath Lebanon to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field for a forest is reckoned? |
| 29:18 | And heard in that day have the deaf the words of a book, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind do see. |
| 29:19 | And the humble have added joy in Jehovah, And the poor among men In the Holy One of Israel rejoice. |
| 29:20 | For ceased hath the terrible one, And consumed hath been the scorner, And cut off have been all watching for iniquity, |
| 29:21 | Causing men to sin in word, And for a reprover in the gate lay a snare, And turn aside into emptiness the righteous. |
| 29:22 | Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: `Not now ashamed is Jacob, Nor now doth his face become pale, |
| 29:23 | For in his seeing his children, The work of My hand, in his midst, They sanctify My name, And have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, And the God of Israel they declare fearful. |
| 29:24 | And the erring in spirit have known understanding, And murmurers learn doctrine!' |
