CryH7121 aloudH1627, spareH2820 not, liftH7311 up thy voiceH6963 like a trumpetH7782, and shewH5046 my peopleH5971 their transgressionH6588, and the houseH1004 of JacobH3290 their sinsH2403. {aloud: Heb. with the throat}
Yet they seekH1875 me dailyH3117+H3117, and delightH2654 to knowH1847 my waysH1870, as a nationH1471 that didH6213 righteousnessH6666, and forsookH5800 not the ordinanceH4941 of their GodH430: they askH7592 of me the ordinancesH4941 of justiceH6664; they take delightH2654 in approachingH7132 to GodH430.
Wherefore have we fastedH6684, say they, and thou seestH7200 not? wherefore have we afflictedH6031 our soulH5315, and thou takest no knowledgeH3045? Behold, in the dayH3117 of your fastH6685 ye findH4672 pleasureH2656, and exactH5065 all your laboursH6092. {labours: or, things wherewith ye grieve others: Heb. griefs}
Behold, ye fastH6684 for strifeH7379 and debateH4683, and to smiteH5221 with the fistH106 of wickednessH7562: ye shall not fastH6684 as ye do this dayH3117, to make your voiceH6963 to be heardH8085 on highH4791. {ye shall…: or, ye fast not as this day}
Is it such a fastH6685 that I have chosenH977? a dayH3117 for a manH120 to afflictH6031 his soulH5315? is it to bow downH3721 his headH7218 as a bulrushH100, and to spreadH3331 sackclothH8242 and ashesH665 under him? wilt thou callH7121 thisH2088 a fastH6685, and an acceptableH7522 dayH3117 to the LORDH3068? {a day…: or, to afflict his soul for a day?}
Is not this the fastH6685 that I have chosenH977? to looseH6605 the bandsH2784 of wickednessH7562, to undoH5425 the heavyH4133 burdensH92, and to let the oppressedH7533 goH7971 freeH2670, and that ye breakH5423 every yokeH4133? {the heavy…: Heb. the bundles of the yoke} {oppressed: Heb. broken}
Is it not to dealH6536 thy breadH3899 to the hungryH7457, and that thou bringH935 the poorH6041 that are cast outH4788 to thy houseH1004? when thou seestH7200 the nakedH6174, that thou coverH3680 him; and that thou hideH5956 not thyself from thine own fleshH1320? {cast…: or, afflicted}
Then shall thy lightH216 break forthH1234 as the morningH7837, and thine healthH724 shall spring forthH6779 speedilyH4120: and thy righteousnessH6664 shall goH1980 beforeH6440 thee; the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 shall be thy rerewardH622. {be…: Heb. gather thee up}
Then shalt thou callH7121, and the LORDH3068 shall answerH6030; thou shalt cryH7768, and he shall sayH559, Here I am. If thou take awayH5493 from the midstH8432 of thee the yokeH4133, the putting forthH7971 of the fingerH676, and speakingH1696 vanityH205;
And if thou draw outH6329 thy soulH5315 to the hungryH7457, and satisfyH7646 the afflictedH6031 soulH5315; then shall thy lightH216 riseH2224 in obscurityH2822, and thy darknessH653 be as the noondayH6672:
And the LORDH3068 shall guideH5148 thee continuallyH8548, and satisfyH7646 thy soulH5315 in droughtH6710, and make fatH2502 thy bonesH6106: and thou shalt be like a wateredH7302 gardenH1588, and like a springH4161 of waterH4325, whose watersH4325 failH3576 not. {drought: Heb. droughts} {fail: Heb. lie, or, deceive}
And they that shall be of thee shall buildH1129 the oldH5769 waste placesH2723: thou shalt raise upH6965 the foundationsH4146 of manyH1755 generationsH1755; and thou shalt be calledH7121, The repairerH1443 of the breachH6556, The restorerH7725 of pathsH5410 to dwell inH3427.
If thou turn awayH7725 thy footH7272 from the sabbathH7676, from doingH6213 thy pleasureH2656 on my holyH6944 dayH3117; and callH7121 the sabbathH7676 a delightH6027, the holyH6918 of the LORDH3068, honourableH3513; and shalt honourH3513 him, not doingH6213 thine own waysH1870, nor findingH4672 thine own pleasureH2656, nor speakingH1696 thine own wordsH1697:
Then shalt thou delightH6026 thyself in the LORDH3068; and I will cause thee to rideH7392 upon the high placesH1116 of the earthH776, and feedH398 thee with the heritageH5159 of JacobH3290 thy fatherH1: for the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
Querverweise zu Jesaja 58,13 Jes 58,13
BlessedH835 is the manH582 that doethH6213 this, and the sonH1121 of manH120 that layeth holdH2388 on it; that keepethH8104 the sabbathH7676 from pollutingH2490 it, and keepethH8104 his handH3027 from doingH6213 any evilH7451.
Neither let the sonH1121 of the strangerH5236, that hath joinedH3867 himself to the LORDH3068, speakH559, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 hath utterlyH914 separatedH914 me from his peopleH5971: neither let the eunuchH5631 sayH559, Behold, I am a dryH3002 treeH6086.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 unto the eunuchsH5631 that keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676, and chooseH977 the things that pleaseH2654 me, and take holdH2388 of my covenantH1285;
Even unto them will I giveH5414 in mine houseH1004 and within my wallsH2346 a placeH3027 and a nameH8034 betterH2896 than of sonsH1121 and of daughtersH1323: I will giveH5414 them an everlastingH5769 nameH8034, that shall not be cut offH3772.
Also the sonsH1121 of the strangerH5236, that joinH3867 themselves to the LORDH3068, to serveH8334 him, and to loveH157 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, to be his servantsH5650, every one that keepethH8104 the sabbathH7676 from pollutingH2490 it, and taketh holdH2388 of my covenantH1285;
OneH259 thing have I desiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, that will I seekH1245 after; that I may dwellH3427 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 all the daysH3117 of my lifeH2416, to beholdH2372 the beautyH5278 of the LORDH3068, and to enquireH1239 in his templeH1964. {the beauty: or, the delight}
RememberH2142 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to keep it holyH6942.
SixH8337 daysH3117 shalt thou labourH5647, and doH6213 all thy workH4399:
But the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is the sabbathH7676 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: in it thou shalt not doH6213 any workH4399, thou, nor thy sonH1121, nor thy daughterH1323, thy manservantH5650, nor thy maidservantH519, nor thy cattleH929, nor thy strangerH1616 that is within thy gatesH8179:
For in sixH8337 daysH3117 the LORDH3068 madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776, the seaH3220, and all that in them is, and restedH5117 the seventhH7637 dayH3117: wherefore the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, and hallowedH6942 it.
When I rememberH2142 these things, I pour outH8210 my soulH5315 in me: for I had goneH5674 with the multitudeH5519, I wentH1718 with them to the houseH1004 of GodH430, with the voiceH6963 of joyH7440 and praiseH8426, with a multitudeH1995 that kept holydayH2287.
SpeakH1696 thou also unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, VerilyH389 my sabbathsH7676 ye shall keepH8104: for it is a signH226 between me and you throughout your generationsH1755; that ye may knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 that doth sanctifyH6942 you.
Ye shall keepH8104 the sabbathH7676 therefore; for it is holyH6944 unto you: every one that defilethH2490 it shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191: for whosoever doethH6213 any workH4399 therein, that soulH5315 shall be cut offH3772 from amongH7130 his peopleH5971.
SixH8337 daysH3117 may workH4399 be doneH6213; but in the seventhH7637 is the sabbathH7676 of restH7677, holyH6944 to the LORDH3068: whosoever doethH6213 any workH4399 in the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, he shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191. {holy: Heb. holiness}
Wherefore the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall keepH8104 the sabbathH7676, to observeH6213 the sabbathH7676 throughout their generationsH1755, for a perpetualH5769 covenantH1285.
It is a signH226 between me and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 for everH5769: for in sixH8337 daysH3117 the LORDH3068 madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776, and on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 he restedH7673, and was refreshedH5314.
My soulH5315 longethH3700, yea, even faintethH3615 for the courtsH2691 of the LORDH3068: my heartH3820 and my fleshH1320 crieth outH7442 for the livingH2416 GodH410.
And MosesH4872 calledH7121 BezaleelH1212 and AholiabH171, and every wiseH2450 heartedH3820 manH376, in whose heartH3820 the LORDH3068 had putH5414 wisdomH2451, even every one whose heartH3820 stirred him upH5375 to comeH7126 unto the workH4399 to doH6213 it:
For a dayH3117 in thy courtsH2691 is betterH2896 than a thousandH505. I had ratherH977 be a doorkeeperH5605 in the houseH1004 of my GodH430, than to dwellH1752 in the tentsH168 of wickednessH7562. {I had…: Heb. I would choose rather to sit at the threshold}
And they receivedH3947 ofH6440 MosesH4872 all the offeringH8641, which the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had broughtH935 for the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the sanctuaryH6944, to makeH6213 it withal. And they broughtH935 yet unto him free offeringsH5071 every morningH1242.
A PsalmH4210 or SongH7892 for the sabbathH7676 dayH3117. It is a goodH2896 thing to give thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068, and to sing praisesH2167 unto thy nameH8034, O most HighH5945:
KeepH8104 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117 to sanctifyH6942 it, as the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath commandedH6680 thee.
SixH8337 daysH3117 thou shalt labourH5647, and doH6213 all thy workH4399:
But the seventhH7637 dayH3117 is the sabbathH7676 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: in it thou shalt not doH6213 any workH4399, thou, nor thy sonH1121, nor thy daughterH1323, nor thy manservantH5650, nor thy maidservantH519, nor thine oxH7794, nor thine assH2543, nor any of thy cattleH929, nor thy strangerH1616 that is within thy gatesH8179; that thy manservantH5650 and thy maidservantH519 may restH5117 as well as thou.
And rememberH2142 that thou wast a servantH5650 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 broughtH3318 thee out thence through a mightyH2389 handH3027 and by a stretched outH5186 armH2220: therefore the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee to keepH6213 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117.
To shew forthH5046 thy lovingkindnessH2617 in the morningH1242, and thy faithfulnessH530 every nightH3915, {every…: Heb. in the nights}
In those daysH3117 sawH7200 I in JudahH3063 some treadingH1869 wine pressesH1660 on the sabbathH7676, and bringing inH935 sheavesH6194, and ladingH6006 assesH2543; as also wineH3196, grapesH6025, and figsH8384, and all manner of burdensH4853, which they broughtH935 into JerusalemH3389 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117: and I testifiedH5749 against them in the dayH3117 wherein they soldH4376 victualsH6718.
There dweltH3427 men of TyreH6876 also therein, which broughtH935 fishH1709+H1709, and all manner of wareH4377, and soldH4376 on the sabbathH7676 unto the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, and in JerusalemH3389.
Then I contendedH7378 with the noblesH2715 of JudahH3063, and saidH559 unto them, What evilH7451 thingH1697 is this that ye doH6213, and profaneH2490 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117?
DidH6213 not your fathersH1 thus, and didH935 not our GodH430 bringH935 all this evilH7451 upon us, and upon this cityH5892? yet ye bringH935 moreH3254 wrathH2740 upon IsraelH3478 by profaningH2490 the sabbathH7676.
And it came to pass, that when the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 began to be darkH6751 beforeH6440 the sabbathH7676, I commandedH559 that the gatesH1817 should be shutH5462, and chargedH559 that they should not be openedH6605 till afterH310 the sabbathH7676: and some of my servantsH5288 setH5975 I at the gatesH8179, that there should no burdenH4853 be brought inH935 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117.
So the merchantsH7402 and sellersH4376 of all kind of wareH4465 lodgedH3885 withoutH2351 JerusalemH3389 onceH6471 or twiceH8147.
Then I testifiedH5749 against them, and saidH559 unto them, Why lodgeH3885 ye aboutH5048 the wallH2346? if ye do so againH8138, I will layH7971 handsH3027 on you. From that timeH6256 forth cameH935 they no more on the sabbathH7676. {about: Heb. before}
And I commandedH559 the LevitesH3881 that they should cleanseH2891 themselves, and that they should comeH935 and keepH8104 the gatesH8179, to sanctifyH6942 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117. RememberH2142 me, O my GodH430, concerning this also, and spareH2347 me according to the greatnessH7230 of thy mercyH2617. {greatness: or, multitude}
A SongH7892 of degreesH4609 of DavidH1732. I was gladH8055 when they saidH559 unto me, Let us goH3212 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Take heedH8104 to yourselvesH5315, and bearH5375 no burdenH4853 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, nor bringH935 it in by the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389;
Neither carry forthH3318 a burdenH4853 out of your housesH1004 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, neither doH6213 ye any workH4399, but hallowH6942 ye the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, as I commandedH6680 your fathersH1.
But they obeyedH8085 not, neither inclinedH5186 their earH241, but made their neckH6203 stiffH7185, that they might not hearH8085, nor receiveH3947 instructionH4148.
And it shall come to pass, if ye diligentlyH8085 hearkenH8085 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, to bringH935 in no burdenH4853 through the gatesH8179 of this cityH5892 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, but hallowH6942 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to doH6213 noH1115 workH4399 therein;
Then shall there enterH935 into the gatesH8179 of this cityH5892 kingsH4428 and princesH8269 sittingH3427 upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, ridingH7392 in chariotsH7393 and on horsesH5483, they, and their princesH8269, the menH376 of JudahH3063, and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389: and this cityH5892 shall remainH3427 for everH5769.
And they shall comeH935 from the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and from the places aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and from the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and from the plainH8219, and from the mountainsH2022, and from the southH5045, bringingH935 burnt offeringsH5930, and sacrificesH2077, and meat offeringsH4503, and incenseH3828, and bringingH935 sacrifices of praiseH8426, unto the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
But if ye will not hearkenH8085 unto me to hallowH6942 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, and not to bearH5375 a burdenH4853, even entering inH935 at the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117; then will I kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the gatesH8179 thereof, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of JerusalemH3389, and it shall not be quenchedH3518.
