A child has been born for us, a son has been given to us, and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:61 speaks so clearly about the Messianic Kingdom. This hope grew especially during the Babylonian exile. After that, Israel and Judah lived under the rule of different empires, always dreaming of the day their independent kingdom would be restored. This restoration would be led by someone from the house of David, born in Bethlehem. Jesus fulfilled all these prophecies.
Yet, scripture tells us that Israel didn't recognize the time of their visitation. We now understand this was all part of God's plan to extend grace to the Gentiles. Once that work is complete, that grace will return to Israel.
Romans 11:25-262 says, "I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in, and in this way all Israel will be saved." Think about that. It's mind-blowing.
After Jesus came and the church was born, Israel was scattered among the nations until 1948. Then, they were brought back together and became a nation again. Today, Israel is led by a prime minister, but one day, the Messiah will return and establish his kingdom. Every eye will see him when he comes back, and he will reign for a thousand years, restoring the throne of David.
And I will put eivah between thee and HaIsha, and between thy zera and her Zera; He shall crush thy rosh, and thou shalt strike His akev (heel).
And I will bless the one blessing you, and curse him that curses you; and kol mishpochot haadamah shall be blessed through you.
The shevet (sceptre) shall not depart from Yehudah, nor a Mekhokek (Lawgiver) from between his raglayim, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall be the obedience of the amim (peoples, nations).
But these things have been written that you might have emunah that Yehoshua is the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the Ben HaElohim, and that, believing with emunah, you may have Chayyim (Life) b'Shem of Him.
Then Moshe called for all the Ziknei Yisroel, and said unto them, Draw out as separate and take for yourselves a lamb according to your mishpokhot, and slaughter (shachat) the Pesach.And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the dahm that is in the basin, and strike the mashkof (lintel) and the two mezuzot (door sideposts) with the dahm that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out the door of his bais until boker.For Hashem will pass through to strike the Mitzrayim; and when He seeth the dahm upon the mashkof, and on the two mezuzot, Hashem will pasach (pass over, spare, skip) the entrance, and will not permit the Mashkhit (Destroyer), to enter unto your batim to strike.
Hashem Eloheicha will raise up unto thee a Navi from among thee, of thy achim, kamoni (like me); unto him ye must listen;
The voice of him that preacheth in the midbar: Prepare ye the Derech Hashem, make straight in the Aravah a highway for Eloheinu.
For this is the one spoken of through Yeshayah the Navi, saying, KOL KOREY BAMIDBAR (A voice of one shouting in the wilderness): Prepare the Derech Hashem (the way of the L-rd). Make his paths straight!
I will declare the chok (decree): Hashem hath said unto me, Thou art Beni (My Son); HaYom (today) I have begotten thee.
Therefore will He give them up, until the Et Yoledah (time when she who is in labor) hath brought forth; then the rest of His Brethren shall return unto Bnei Yisroel.
My ko'ach is dried up like baked clay; and my leshon cleaveth to my jaws; and Thou layest me in the aphar mavet (dust of death).For kelavim have surrounded me; the Adat Mere'im (congregation of evil men) have enclosed me; KA'ARU YADAI V'RAGELAI (they pierced my hands and my feet). I can count all my atzmot; the people stare and gloat at me.
Therefore Adonoi Himself shall give you an ot (sign); Hinei, HaAlmah (the unmarried young virgin) shall conceive, and bear Ben, and shall call Shmo Immanu El (G-d is with us).
(Of Dovid. Mizmor) 1 Hashem said unto Adoni, Sit thou at My right hand, until I make thine enemies a footstool for thy feet.
Hinei, the days come, saith Hashem, that I will raise up unto Dovid a Tzemach Tzaddik, and a Melech shall reign and act wisely, and shall execute mishpat and tzedakah in ha'aretz.
Because hayom, in Ir Dovid, has been born to you a Moshia (Go'el, Savior, Oisleizer), who is Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach HaAdon.
For this reason also you be shomer, for in the hour when you do not think, then will be the Bias HaMoshiach (the Coming of the Bar Enosh).
Me'ushar and Kadosh (Blessed and Holy) is the one having a part in the Techiyah HaRishonah. On these ones the Mavet HaSheyni (the Second Death) does not have shilton (authority, samchut), but they will be kohanim of Hashem and of Moshiach, and will reign with him for elef shanim.
And there shall come forth a Khoter (Branch) out of the Geza (Stem, Stump, Stock) of Yishai, and a Netzer (Branch) shall bear fruit of his roots: And in Yom HaHu there shall be a Shoresh Yishai, which shall stand for a nes (banner) for the peoples; to Him will the Goyim seek; and His menucha (resting place) shall be kavod. And it shall come to pass in Yom HaHu, that Adonoi shall set His yad again the second time to recover the She'ar (Remnant) of His people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Mitzrayim, and from Patros, and from Kush, and from Eilam, and from Shinar, and from Chamat, and from the islands of the sea. And He shall raise up a nes (banner) for the Goyim, and shall assemble the outcasts of Yisroel, and gather together the dispersed of Yehudah from the four corners of ha'aretz.The kinah (envy, jealousy) also of Ephrayim shall depart, and the adversaries of Yehudah shall be cut off; Ephrayim shall not envy Yehudah, and Yehudah shall not harass Ephrayim.But they shall swoop down upon the shoulders of the Pelishtim toward the west; they shall plunder them of the east together; they shall lay their yad upon Edom and Moav; and the Bnei Ammon shall obey them.And Hashem shall utterly destroy the leshon Yam Mitzrayim (tongue of the Red Sea); and with His scorchimg Ruach shall He shake His Yad over the Nahar, and shall break it into seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.And there shall be a mesillah (highway) for the she'ar (remnant) of His people, which shall be left, from Assyria; just as it was for Yisroel in the Yom that he came up out of Eretz Mitzrayim.And the Ruach of Hashem shall rest upon Him, the Ruach of Chochmah and Binah, the Ruach of Etzah (Counsel) and Gevurah, the Ruach of Da'as and of the Yir'at Hashem;
But seek first the Malchut Hashem and the Tzidkat Hashem, and all these things will be added to you.
Here is Avdi, whom I uphold; Mine Bechir (Elect One, Chosen One), in whom My nefesh delighteth; I have put My Ruach upon Him; He shall bring forth mishpat to the Goyim.
Thine, Hashem is HaGedulah, and HaGevurah, and HaTiferet and HaNetzach and HaHod; for all that is in the Shomayim and in Ha'aretz is Thine; Thine is the Mamlachah, O Hashem, and Thou art exalted as Rosh above all.
And He said: It is too small a thing that Thou shouldest be Eved to Me to raise up the Shivtei Ya'akov, and to bring back the Netzurei Yisroel (Preserved of Israel, the She'erit); I will also give Thee for Ohr Goyim, that Thou mayest be My Yeshu'ah (Salvation) unto the ketzeh ha'aretz.
From then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach began to proclaim, saying, LAlter LiTeshuvah (Immediate Repentance), for the Malchut HaShomayim has come near.
Therefore, then, no longer are you zarim and aliens, but you are fellow citizens of the Kedoshim and bnei bayit members of the household of G-d,In which you amol (formerly) fier zich (comported oneself), according to the course of the Olam Hazeh, according to the Sar Memshelet HaAvir (Prince of Power of Air), the ruach now working in the bnei haMeri (sons of Rebellion).Having been built upon the yesod (foundation) of the Shlichim and Nevi'im, Moshiach Yehoshua himself being the ROSH PINAH,
I offered My gev (back) to them that deliver blows, and My lekhi (cheeks) to them that pulled out: I hid not My face from kelimot (humiliations, shame) and rok (spitting, saliva).
And Hashem shall be Melech Al Kol HaAretz (King over all the earth); in Yom HaHu (in that day) shall Hashem be echad, and Shmo Echad.
Hinei, Avdi shall act wisely, he shall be raised and be lifted up, and be highly exalted.As rabbim (many) were appalled at thee; his appearance was so disfigured more than any man, and his form more than the bnei adam;So yazzeh Goyim rabbim (he [Moshiach] will sprinkle many nations); the melachim (kings) shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see; and of that which they had not heard shall they have binah (understanding).
Who hath believed our report? And to whom is the Zero'a Hashem revealed? Yet it pleased Hashem to bruise him; He hath put him to suffering; when Thou shalt make his nefesh an asham offering for sin, he (Moshiach) shall see zera, He shall prolong his yamim (days) and the chefetz Hashem (pleasure, will of Hashem) shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his nefesh, and shall be satisfied; by knowledge of him shall Tzadik Avdi (My Righteous Servant) justify many; for he shall bear their avon (iniquities). Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his nefesh unto mavet (death); and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he nasah (bore) [like the Yom Kippur scapegoat] the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
For Hashem is our Shofet, Hashem is Mechokkeinu (our Lawgiver), Hashem is Malkeinu; Hu yoshieinu (He will save us).
The Ruach of Adonoi Hashem is upon me, because Hashem mashach (hath anointed) me to preach besurah (good news, glad tidings) unto the anavim (meek, poor, oppressed); He hath sent me to bind up the nishberei lev (the brokenhearted), to proclaim deror (freedom, liberty) for the shevuyim ([Golus] captives), and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;I will greatly rejoice in Hashem, my nefesh shall be joyful in Elohai; for He hath clothed me with the Bigdei Yesha (Garments of Salvation), He hath covered me with Me'il Tzedakah (the Robe of Righteousness) like a Choson arrays himself with splendor, and like a Kallah adorneth herself with her jewels.For as Eretz bringeth forth her tzemach, and as the gan (garden) the things that are sown in it tatzmiach (causes [them] to spring forth); so Adonoi Hashem will tzedakah (righteousness) and tehillah (praise) yatzmiach (cause [them] to spring forth) before kol HaGoyim.To proclaim the Shnat Ratzon L'Hashem (the year of the L-rdʼs favor and grace), and the Yom Nakam L'Eloheinu (our G-dʼs Day of Vengeance); to comfort all the avelim (mourners);
Now to HaMelech HaOlamim, the One who is Ein Sof (without end), Whom no eye has seen, Adonoi echad, lo hakavod v'hatiferet mayhaolam v'ad haolam (to him be honor and glory from forever to forever). Omein.
Hinei, the days come, saith Hashem, that I will raise up unto Dovid a Tzemach Tzaddik, and a Melech shall reign and act wisely, and shall execute mishpat and tzedakah in ha'aretz.In his days Yehudah shall be saved, and Yisroel shall dwell safely; and this is Shmo whereby he shall be called — Adonoi (Hashem) Tzidkeinu.
And I will set up Ro'eh Echad over them, He shall tend them as ro'eh, even Avdi Dovid; He shall feed them. He shall be their Ro'eh.And I Hashem will be their Elohim, and Avdi Dovid a Nasi among them; I Hashem have spoken.
I was beholding in visions of the night, and, hinei, one like a Bar Enosh (Ben Adam), came with the clouds of Shomayim, and came to the Atik Yomin (Ancient of Days), and before Him He was brought.And there was given Him (Moshiach, see Rashi on Daniel) dominion, and honor, and sovereignty, that all people, Goyim, tongues, should pey-lammed-chet him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His (Messianic) Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
Have da'as, therefore, and get seichel, that from the going forth of the decree to restore and to rebuild Yerushalayim unto Moshiach Nagid shall be shivah heptads, and threescore and two heptads; the rechov shall be built again, and the charutz, even in troublous times.And after threescore and two heptads, yikaret (will be cut off) Moshiach, but not for himself; and the troops of the coming nagid shall destroy the Ir and the Kodesh [Beis Hamikdash]; and the end thereof shall come with a flood, and unto the end there shall be war. Desolations are determined.
Rejoice greatly, O Bat Tziyon; shout, O Bat Yerushalayim; hinei, thy Melech cometh unto thee, tzaddik, and having Salvation; ani (lowly, meek), and riding upon a chamor, even upon a colt the foal of a donkey.
And I will pour upon the Bais Dovid, and upon the inhabitants of Yerushalayim, the Ruach (Spirit) of Chen (grace) and of Tachanunim (supplications for favor); and they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him (Moshiach) as one mourneth for his yachid (only son), and shall grieve in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his bechor (firstborn).
In Yom HaHu there shall be a makor (fountain) opened to the Bais Dovid and to the inhabitants of Yerushalayim for sin and for niddah (impurity).
Now all this occurred so that which was spoken by Hashem through the Navi might be fulfilled,HINEI, HAALMAH HARAH V'YOLEDET BEN VKARAT SHMO IMMANU-EL (Behold, the Virgin will be with child and will bear Son and will call his name Immanu-El) — which translated means G-d is with us.
And YOU, BEIT-LECHEM, (Bethlehem, Mic 5:1[2]) in eretz Yehudah are by no means least among the shtetlach (towns) or ruling of Yehudah; because out of you will come a Moshel (Ruler) who will be the Ro'eh Ami Yisroel.
And Yosef was there until the mot Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by Hashem through the Navi, UMIMITZRAYIM KARATI LIVNI (Out of Egypt have I called my Son).
This was to fulfill what was spoken through Yeshayah HaNavi,ARTZAH Zevulun VARTZAH Naphtali (To the land of Zevulun and to the land of Naphtali), the way to the sea beyond the Yarden, Galil HaGoyim,the people sitting in CHOSHECH RAU OHR GADOL (darkness saw a great light), YOSHVEI V'ERETZ TZALMAVET (the ones living in the land of the shadow of death), a light has dawned among them.
This was to fulfill what was spoken through Yeshayah HaNavi, saying,HEN AVDI ETMACH BO, BECHIRI RATZTAH NAFSHI, NATATI RUCHI ALAV, MISHPAT LAGOYIM YOTZI, (Here is my Servant, whom I uphold, my Chosen One in whom my Soul delights, I will put my Spirit on him, he will bring Justice to the Nations),LO YITZAK VLO YISSAH VLO YASHMIA BACHUTZ KOLO (He will not shout nor cry out nor raise the sound of his voice in the street.)But the Perushim, seeing this, said to Moshiach: Hinei! Your talmidim are doing what is asur on Shabbos!KANEH RATZUTZ LO YISHBOR UFISHTAH CHEHAH LO YECHABENAH LE-EMET YOTZI MISHPAT (A bruised reed he will not break nor a smoldering wick will he snuff out) until Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach leads mishpat (justice) to victory.And in his Name, HAGOYIM will put their tikvah (hope).
And this took place in order that might be fulfilled the thing spoken by the Navi (Prophet), saying:Therefore, when the Baal HaKerem (Owner of the Vineyard) comes, what will he do to those koremim (vine keepers)?They say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Those resha'im (evil-doers) the Baal HaKerem will bring to a terrible mavet, and the Kerem the Baal HaKerem will lease to other koremim, who will render unto the Baal HaKerem the PRI B'ITO (fruit in its season). Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Have you never heard in the Kitvei Hakodesh (Holy Scriptures), EVEN MAASU HABONIM HAYTAH LEROSH PINAH; MEIES HASHEM HAYTAH ZOT HI NIFLAT BEINEINU (The Stone which the Builders rejected, this one has become Head of the Corner; this came about from the L-rd, and it is marvelous in our eyes)?For this reason, I say to you, the Malchut Hashem will be taken from you and it will be given to a people that produces its pri.And the one having fallen on this EVEN (Stone) will be crushed; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls. And having heard Moshiachʼs mashal, the Rashei Hakohanim and the Perushim understood that he spoke about them.And seeking to arrest him, they were afraid of the multitudes, vi-bahlt (since) the multitudes considered him a Navi.IMRU LBAT TZIYON! (Tell the Daughter of Zion!) Hinei! Your Melech comes, ANI VROCHEV AL CHAMOR VAL AYIR BEN ATONOT (poor, humble and riding on a donkey and upon a colt, the foal of donkeys).
But this all happened that the Kitvei Hakodesh of the Neviim might be fulfilled. Then the talmidim deserted Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and fled.
Just as it has been written in Yeshayah HaNavi, HINNENI SHOLEIACH MALACHI (Behold, I send my messenger) before your face, UPINNAH DERECH LEFANAI (and he will prepare the way before me), he will prepare your way.And ofen ort he summoned them; and, leaving Zavdai their father in the sirah with the sachirim (hired workers), they went away to follow Moshiach.And they enter into K'far-Nachum, and ofen ort on Shabbos, entering into the shul, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach exercised the ministry of moreh (teacher).And they were astounded at Moshiachʼs torah (teaching), for he was teaching them as one having samchut, and not as the Sofrim.And, ofen ort, there was in their shul a man with a ruach hatameh, and he shouted,Saying, Yehoshua of Natzeret, mah lanu vlach? (What to us and to you?) Have you come to bring us churban (destruction)? I have daas who you are, HaKadosh of Hashem (the Holy One of G-d).But he rebuked the shed, saying, Shekit! Gey zich! And come out of him.And, the ruach hatumah, throwing him into convulsions, let out a shrai and came out of him.And all were astounded so that they began to discuss with each other, saying, What is this? Torah Chadasha with samchut? He gives orders to the shedim and they obey him?And the besuroh (news) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach ofen ort (immediately) went forth everywhere into the surrounding region of the Galil.And ofen ort (immediately), coming out of shul, they went into the bais (house) of Shim'on and Andrew with Ya'akov and Yochanan.KOL KOREY BAMIDBAR (A voice of one shouting in the wilderness): Prepare the Derech Hashem (the way of the L-rd). Make his paths yashar (straight)!
And in your womb you will conceive and bear BEN and you will call SHMO YEHOSHUA.He will be gadol (great) and will be called Ben HaElyon (Son of the Most High). Adonoi Elohim will give him the kisse Dovid Aviv,And he will rule over the Beis Ya'akov Olam vaed, and his Malchut will never come to an end.
And the malach said to them, Do not have pachad (fear, terror); for hinei I announce Besuras HaGeulah to you of great simcha (joy) which will be for kol Am Berit (all the People of the Covenant);Because hayom, in Ir Dovid, has been born to you a Moshia (Go'el, Savior, Oisleizer), who is Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach HaAdon.
[After the Hagbah], he was presented with the megillat sefer Yeshayah and having unrolled the megillah, he found the dvar where it had been written,RUACH ADONAI HASHEM ALAI YAAN MASHACH ADONAI OTI LEVASER ANAVIM SHELACHANI LIKRO LISHVUYIM DEROR, (The Spirit of the Sovereign L-rd is upon me because He anointed me to preach Besuras HaGeulah to the poor, He has sent me to preach to the captives release), and to the blind PEKACH KOACH, VSHALACH RETZUTZIM CHAFSHIM, (the recovery of sight, to set the oppressed free),LIKRO SHENAT RATZON LAHASHEM (To preach the year of Hashemʼs favor.)Where for ARBA'IM YOM Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was undergoing nisayon by HaSatan. And he had no okhel in those yamim. And when the yamim had been completed, he was famished.And doing the glilah ceremony, he rolled up the megillah; and, having given it back to the shammash, he sat down [to teach]. And all the eyes in the shul were focused on him.And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach began to speak to them, Hayom (today) this dvar of the Kitvei Hakodesh has been fulfilled in your hearing.
And in reply he said to them, Go and tell Yochanan what you have seen. IVRIM TIRENAH, pisechim (lame persons) walk, the metzorim are cleansed, and chereshim hear, the mesim are restored to life, ANIYIM have the Besuras HaGeulah preached to them.
Philippos finds Natan'el and says to him, He whom Moshe wrote of in the Sefer Torah, he whom the Nevi'im also wrote of — Yehoshua ben Yosef [ben Dovid], from Natzeret we have found!
For Hashem so had ahavah (agape) for the Olam Hazeh that Hashem gave the matanah (gift) of Hashemʼs Ben Yechid, so that whosoever has emunah in him may not be ne'evad (lost, perish, be ruined with destruction), but find Chayyei Olam.
You search the Kitvei Hakodesh because you think in them you have Chayyei Olam. And those are the ones giving solemn edut about me.
That the dvar of Yeshayah HaNavi may be fulfilled, which said, Adonoi, MI HE'EMIN LISHMU'ATEINU UZERO'A HASHEM AL-MI NIGLATAH? (Who has believed our report and to whom is the arm of Hashem revealed)?
But Hashem has thus fulfilled the things which he announced beforehand through the mouth of all the Nevi'im that the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach should undergo Messianic yissurim (sufferings).Therefore, make teshuva (repentance, turning from chet [sin] to G-d) and turn in order that your chatta'im, your averos (sins) may be removed,And a certain ish, an ish (pisei'ach from the womb of his em), was being carried and they were putting him bederech klal (usually) yom yom at the sha'ar of the Beis Hamikdash, the one being called the Sha'ar Hatiferet, in order to beg for tzedakah from the ones entering into the Beis Hamikdash.In order that times of rest may come from the presence of Adonoi, and that he may send the one having been proclaimed beforehand to you, that is, the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach,
To this one all the Nevi'im bear witness that through ha-Shem of him everyone who has emunah in him has selicha (forgiveness) of chatta'im (averos, sins).
Which Hashem promised beforehand through His Neviim in the Kitvei HaKodesh.For his invisible characteristics from the Bri'at HaOlam (the creation of the world) are perceived intellectually in the things which have been created; that is, both his eternal ko'ach and Elohut are discernable. So Bnei Adam have no terutz (excuse) and are inexcusably culpable (before an angry G-d),Because, even though they in actual fact knew G-d, they did not ascribe Him kavod (glory) as G-d or give hodayah (thanksgiving) to Him, but became filled with hevel (futility, vanity, emptiness, worthlessness) in their thinking, and their senseless levavot were darkened.Claiming to be chachamim (wise ones), they became kesilim (fools),And traded in the kavod (glory) of the incorruptible G-d for the mere likeness of the demut (image, icon) of corruptible man, birds, beasts, and reptiles.Therefore, G-d (in wrath) delivered them over in the ta'avot of their levavot to tum'a (uncleanness) to the dishonoring and perverting of their bodies among themselves:They traded in HaEmes Hashem (the Truth of G-d) for sheker, for a lie, and worshiped and served HaBri'ah (the Creature, the Creation) rather than HaBo're (the Beshefer), hamvorach l'olamim. Omein (who is blessed forever. Amen).For this reason, Hashem (in wrath) delivered them over to paskudneh (contemptible) sexual desires. For their females traded off natural sexual intercourse for unnatural.Likewise also the males abandoned natural sexual intercourse with the female counterpart and were inflamed with craving for one another, males with males committing what is indecent and receiving back (in exchange) in themselves the appropriate gemul (retribution) for their toyus (error). And as far as G-dʼs worthiness to be recognized by them was concerned, vi-bahlt (since) they marked G-d down as failing the test, therefore G-d (in wrath) delivered them over to a failure of a brain, one that has a mind bent on doing what is perversely unworthy— filled with all resha, wickedness, chamdanut (greediness), and what is damagingly evil — full of kin'a (jealousy), retzach (murder), rivalry, mirmah (deceit), merivah (strife), remiyah (guile, deceit), all kinds of lashon hora, malicious,The Good News of Redemption of Hashem concerns the Zun fun Der Oybershter (Ben HaElohim of Hashem) born from the zera Dovid, as far as basar is concerned,Backbiters, slanderers, haters of G-d, insolent, arrogant, braggarts, contrivers of evil, disobedient to horim.Without seichel, without ne'emanut (faithfulness), without ahavah (love), without rachamanut.Although they have known full well the just requirements of Hashem, that is, that those who practice such things are Bnei mavet, they not only do the very same, but even give their perverted bracha (blessing) on those who practice such. For this reason, you are without terutz (excuse) for yourself (before an angry G-d), you, sir, each one of you who passes judgment.But, as far as the Ruach Hakodesh is concerned, appointed to be Zun fun der Oybershter in power by means of Moshiachʼs Techiyah (Resurrection) from HaMesim.
And again Yeshayah says, The SHORESH OF YISHAI (the Root of Jesse), shall come forth, even the one who arises to rule the GOYIM; in him (the Gentiles, the nations) shall put their TIKVAH (hope).
The Nevi'im, who prophesied of the Chen v'Chesed Hashem that was to come to you, searched and inquired about this Yeshu'at Eloheynu.The Nevi'im were searching for what zman (time) or what context of occasion the Ruach of Moshiach in them was pointing to, when predicting the Chevlei Moshiach and HaKavod to follow.The hisgalus (revelation) came to the Nevi'im that the avodas hakodesh ministry they were rendering was not to themselves, but to you, when they spoke of the things announced to you through the Mevaserim (Messianic Darshanim, Maggidim) of the Besuras HaGeulah by the Ruach Hakodesh sent from Shomayim, the very things even malachim desire to look into.
Hinei, Hu habah (He comes) with HA'ANANIM (glory clouds) and kol ayin (every eye) will see him, even the ones who PIERCED HIM, and all the mishpachot (families) of ha'aretz will MOURN for Him. Ken, even so. Omein.
And one of the Zekenim says to me, Do not weep, hinei, HaAryeh (The Lion) from the Shevet Yehudah (Tribe of Judah), the Shoresh Dovid (Root of Dovid), has won the nitzachon (victory) and he is able to open the sefer (book) and its sheva chotamot (seven seals).
And He has on His kaftan and on His thigh a name inscribed: melech hamelachim and adon haadonim.
The Even (Stone) which the Bonim (Builders) rejected has become the Rosh Pinnah (Cornerstone).This is Hashemʼs doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
And in Yom HaHu there shall be a Shoresh Yishai, which shall stand for a nes (banner) for the peoples; to Him will the Goyim seek; and His menucha (resting place) shall be kavod.
Thou shalt multiply the Goy (Nation), and increase its simchah; they joy before Thee according to the simchat baKatzir, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
Shmo (His Name) shall endure l'olam; Shmo shall be continued as long as the shemesh; and men shall be blessed in him; kol Goyim shall call him blessed.
He shall feed His Eder like a Ro'eh; He shall gather the tela'im (lambs) with His zero'a, and carry them in His kheyk, and shall gently lead those that are with young.
He chose Dovid also His Eved, and took him from the mikhle'ot tzon (sheepfolds);From following the nursing ewes He brought him to shepherd Ya'akov His people, and Yisroel His nachalah.So he shepherded them according to the tohm (integrity, guilelessness) of his lev; and led them by the skillfulness of his hands.
But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was bruised mei'avonoteinu (for our iniquities); the musar (chastisement) that brought us shalom was upon him [Moshiach]; and at the cost of his [Moshiachʼs] chaburah (stripes, lacerations) we are healed.
For Thou wilt not abandon my nefesh in Sheol; neither wilt Thou allow Thine Chasid to see shachat (corruption, the pit, the grave, the abyss of corruption).
Hinei, Hashem hath proclaimed unto the ketzeh HaAretz (end of the Earth): Say ye to Bat Tziyon, Hinei, thy Salvation cometh; hinei, His sachar (reward) is with Him, and His recompense before Him.
And speak unto him, saying: Thus saith Hashem Tzva'os: Hinei Ish, TZEMACH Shmo; and out of his place yitzmach (he [Moshiach] shall sprout up), and he shall build the Heikhal Hashem.It is he who shall build the Heikhal Hashem; and he shall carry hod (majesty), and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a kohen upon his throne; and the atzat shalom (counsel of peace) shall be between them both.
BARUCH HASHEM ELOHEI YISROEL, for Adonoi has visited his Am Berit and accomplished a pedut kofer ransom for the Geulah of his people.And Hashem raised up a Keren Yeshu'ah (Horn of Salvation), a mighty Moshia, for us in the Beis Dovid, His eved,
And now, Adonoi, dismiss Your eved in shalom, according to Your dvar (word);And everyone was traveling to register, each to his own shtetl.Because my eynayim have beheld the Yeshu'at Eloheinu,Which You prepared in the presence of kol haammim (all the peoples),An Ohr (Light) to give hisgalus (revelation) to the Nations and the kavod (glory) of Your Am (people), Yisroel.
Therefore, being a Navi and having da'as that with a shevu'ah (an oath) HASHEM swore to him that from his loins his zera would sit upon his KISSE…Foreseeing this, Dovid Hamelech spoke about the Techiyas HaMoshiach: neither was he “abandoned to destruction nor did his BASAR see corruption.”
Do not think that I came to abolish the Torah or the Neviim. I did not come to abolish but to complete.
Now to Avraham Avinu were spoken the havtachot (promises) and to his ZERA (seed). He does not say V'LIZERAECHAH (and to your seeds), as concerning many, but as concerning one, “and to the ZERA of you,” and that ZERA is Moshiach.
For I have said: Chesed shall be built up olam; Thy emunah (faithfulness) shalt Thou establish in Shomayim itself.His zera also will I make to endure forever, and his kisse as the days of Shomayim.If his banim forsake My torah, walk not in My mishpatim,If they violate My chukkot, and are not shomer over My mitzvot;Then will I visit their peysha with shevet (rod), and their avon (iniquity) with stripes.Nevertheless My chesed will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer My emunah (faithfulness) to fail.My Brit will I not violate, nor alter the thing that is gone out of My lips.Once have I sworn by My Kodesh; I will not lie unto Dovid.His zera shall endure l'olam, and his kisse as the shemesh before Me.It shall be established olam as the yarei'ach, and as an ed ne'eman (a faithful witness) in the heavens. SelahBut Thou hast cast off and abhorred, Thou hast been in wrath with Thine Moshiach.I have made a Brit with My Bechir (Chosen one), I have sworn unto Dovid Avdi,
Hashem hath sworn in emes unto Dovid; He will not turn from His oath: Of the p'ri (fruit) of thy beten (body) will I set upon thy kisse (throne).If thy Banim are shomer over My Brit and My Edot that I shall teach them, their Banim shall also sit upon thy kisse adei-ad (forevermore).
And Avdi Dovid shall be Melech over them; and they all shall have Ro'eh Echad; they shall also walk in My mishpatim, and observe My chukkot, and do them.And they shall dwell in HaAretz that I have given unto Avdi Ya'akov, wherein your Avot have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their banim, and their bnei banim ad olam; and Dovid Avdi shall be their Nasi l'olam.
Of the increase of his misrah and shalom there shall be no ketz (end), upon the Kisse Dovid, and upon his kingdom, to strengthen it, and to support it with mishpat and with tzedakah from henceforth even ad olam (forever). The Kinat Hashem Tzva'os will fulfill this.
Yet it pleased Hashem to bruise him; He hath put him to suffering; when Thou shalt make his nefesh an asham offering for sin, he (Moshiach) shall see zera, He shall prolong his yamim (days) and the chefetz Hashem (pleasure, will of Hashem) shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his nefesh, and shall be satisfied; by knowledge of him shall Tzadik Avdi (My Righteous Servant) justify many; for he shall bear their avon (iniquities).
And I will make that which is lame a She'erit (remnant), v'hannahala'ah (and that which is far removed) a Goy atzum (mighty nation); and Hashem shall reign over them in Har Tziyon me'attah ve'ad olam (from henceforth, even for ever).
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephrayim, and the war horse from Yerushalayim, and the battle bow shall be cut off. He shall proclaim shalom unto the Goyim; and His dominion shall be from yam even to yam, and from the River even to the ends of ha'aretz.
And he said to them, These are my devarim which I spoke to you while still being with you, that it is necessary that all the things having been written in the Torah of Moshe and the Neviim and the Tehillim about me to be fulfilled.Then he opened their minds to have binah (understanding) of the Kitvei Hakodesh.And he said to them, Thus it has been written, that the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach must suffer his histalkus (passing) and come back to life again from HaMesim on HaYom HaShlishi,And teshuva for the selicha (forgiveness) of chattaim (sins) is to be preached b'Shem of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua to all the Nations, beginning from Yerushalayim.
And likewise all the Nevi'im (prophets) from Shmuel and his successors onward, also announced HaYom HaZeh.
In many and various drakhim (ways) Hashem in amolike times (olden times) spoke to the Avot by the Nevi'im.And, Atah Adonoi LEFANIM HA'ARETZ YASADETA UMA'ASEH YADECHA SHOMAYIM (You L-rd in the beginning founded the earth and the heavens, the work of your hands);HEMMAH YOVEDU V'ATAH TA'AMOD V'KHULAM KABEGED YIVLU (They will perish but you remain and all of them like the garment they will wear out),KALVUSH TACHALIFEM V'YACHALOFU V'ATAH HU USHENOTECHA LO YITTAMMU (Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded, but you are the same and the years of you they never come to an end).And to which of the malachim has Hashem ever said, Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies as a footstool for your feet?Are not all RUCHOT sharet (ministering spirits, malachey hasharet) sent out with the shlichus (mission) to do avodas kodesh service as Hashemʼs klei kodesh (ministers) on behalf of the ones being about to inherit Yeshu'at Eloheinu?At the Ketz HaYamim, Hashem spoke to us by HaBen, whom He appointed Bechor of the Bechorah, Yoresh Kol (Heir of All Things), through whom also Hashem BARAH ES HASHOMAYIM V'ES HA'ARETZ;
And he came up and spoke to them, saying, All samchut (authority) has been given to me in Shomayim and on HaAretz.Go, therefore, make talmidim for Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach of all the nations, giving them a tevilah in a mikveh mayim in Hashem, in the Name of HaAv, and HaBen, and HaRuach Hakodesh,And hinei! a great earthquake had occurred, for a malach Adonoi (an angel of Hashem) descended from Shomayim and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.Teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And hinei! I am with you always, even unto the Ketz HaOlam Hazeh.
But in fact Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach has had His Techiyah! Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach is the Bikkurim (Firstfruits), the Firstfruits of the ones having fallen asleep [in Moshiach].For als (since) through an Adam (Man) came mavet, also through an Adam (Man, [Moshiach]) came the Techiyas HaMesim.For as in Adam all die, so also in Moshiach all will be made alive.
But when the fullness of time had come, Hashem sent forth his Zun fun der Oybershter, born of an isha, born under Gezetz (Law),That Moshiach might bring the Geulah (Redemption) to the ones under Gezetz (Law), that we might receive the Ma'amad HaBanim (the standing as sons), the bechirah adoption.
And he is the kapporah for chattoteinu, not for ours only, but also for the kol HaOlam Hazeh.
But now, apart from gezetz, the Tzidkat Hashem has been manifested, being attested to by the Torah and the Neviim.That is, the Tzidkat Hashem through emunah in Moshiach Yehoshua (Yeshua) to all the ma'aminim (believers). For there is no distinction.For all have sinned and suffered want of the kavod Hashem.They are acquitted and accounted to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM as a matnat Hashem (gift of G-d) by the unmerited Chen v'Chesed Hashem (grace of G-d) through HaPedut (the ransom), which is in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua,Whom G-d set forth as a kapporah through emunah (faith) in the DAHM (blood) of Moshiach, to demonstrate the Tzedek Olamim, the Tzidkat Hashem (righteousness of G-d) in pasach (passing over, letting go the penalty of) the averos (sins) committed in former times.In the forbearance of G-d, to vindicate his Tzidkat Hashem (righteousness of G-d) in the present time, that HASHEM TZADDIK (G-d is righteous) Himself and the One who counts to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM the person who has Torah of Emunah (the Law of Faith).
For what the Gezetz was unable to do in that it was weak through the basar, G-d sent his own Zun fun der Oybershter in the very demut (likeness) of the basar of sinful humanity and as a chattat (sin offering, sin atoning sacrifice), and both pronounced and effected a sentence of death on HaChet baBasar (Sin in the Flesh, in the fallen old humanity),And those Hashem decided upon from the beginning Hashem also summoned; and those Hashem summoned, Hashem also acquitted and pronounced to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM; and those Hashem acquitted and pronounced to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM, Hashem also set in eternal kavod (glory).In view of these things, what therefore shall we say? If Hashem is for us, who is against us?He who indeed did not spare His own Zun fun der Oybershter, but gave him up for us all, how shall He not also with him give us all things.Who will bring charges against the Bechirei HaElohim (chosen ones of Hashem)? It is Hashem who acquits and pronounces to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM (justified with G-d).Who is there to bring a judgment of harsha'ah (condemnation, to condemn to Onesh Gehinnom)? It is Moshiach Yehoshua who died, rather was kam litechiyah (raised to resurrection), who also is at LIMIN HASHEM (the right hand of G-d), who also intercedes on our behalf.Who will separate us from the Ahavas Moshiach (love of Moshiach)? Tzoros (affliction, trouble), or distress, or redifot (persecutions), or hunger, or nakedness, or danger, or cherev (sword)?As it is written, KI ALECHA HORAGNU KOL HAYOM NECHESHAVNU K'TZON TIVCHAH (For Your sake we are being killed all the day; we are reckoned as sheep for slaughter).But in all these things we prevail bichlal (entirely) through Him who had ahavah for us.For I am convinced that neither Histalkus nor Chayyim nor Malachim nor Rulers, neither things present nor things to come nor kochot (powers),Neither height nor depth nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the ahavas Hashem which is in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu.In order that the maleh chukat haTorah (the full statute requirement of the Torah) might be fulfilled in us whose halakhah is in the Derech [HaChayyim] (the Way [of Life]) according to the Ruach Hakodesh and not in accordance with the basar.
So he, having been offered up once in order that HU NASA CHET RABBIM (he bore away the sin of many) and shall appear sheynit (a second time) for Yeshu'at Eloheinu without reference to chet for those who expectantly khakeh levo'o shel (await the arrival of) Moshiach.
And we are preaching to you the Besuras HaGeulah of the Havtachah made to Avoteinu,That Hashem has fulfilled this havtachah for us, their banim, having made to stand up alive again Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua, as also in the Tehillim it has been written, BENI ATAH, ANI HAYOM YELIDETICHA (You are My son; today I have become your father).
Hoshieini from the mouth of the aryeh; for Thou hast heard me from the karnayim of the wild bulls.
The merkavot of Elohim are myriads, a thousand thousands; Adonoi is among them, as in Sinai, in kodesh (holiness).
Therefore, having been acquitted and declared not guilty, declared to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM on the yesod (basis) of our emunah (faith), we have shalom (peace) in relation to Hashem through Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu,For if when we were [G-dʼs] oyevim (enemies), we were reconciled to Hashem through the histalkus (passing), the mavet (death) of the Zun fun der Oybershter, how much more, having been reconciled and no longer oyevim, shall we be delivered by his Chayyim!Not only so, but we also glory in Hashem though Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu, through whom we have now received the ritztzuy (reconciliation, cessation of enmity, hostility between a wrathful holy G-d and sinful men).Therefore, just as through one Adam (one man, humanity, Adam), Chet (Sin) entered into the Olam Hazeh and, through Chet (Sin), entered Mavet (Death), and so Mavet passed through to kol Bnei Adam (all Mankind, all the sons of Adam), because all sinned.For before [the epoch of] the Torah (Law), Chet (Sin, Chet Kadmon, original sin) was in HaOlam (HaZeh, the world). But Chet (Sin) is not accounted, recorded in the absence of Gezetz.Nevertheless, Mavet (Death) reigned supreme from (the epoch of) Adam until (the epoch of) Moshe Rabbeinu, even over those who did not sin in the very same manner of Adamʼs averah (transgression, disobedience, commandment rebelled against and recorded for death penalty) — that is, Adam who is a tipus (pattern, prophetic type), a demut he'atid (a future figure) of Hu HaBah (“He who comes,” Moshiach the Coming One, the Coming Go'el Redeemer). But the averah (transgression) was not like the effect of unmerited chesed (grace). For if by the averah of the one, the rabbim (many) died, how much more the unmerited Chen v'Chesed Hashem (grace of G-d) and the matnat hachesed (free gift of grace) of the Adam HaEchad (one Man) Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua have overflowed LARABBIM (to the many).And the mattanah (free gift) is not like the effect of that one Adamʼs averah. For the mishpat (judgment) is from one averah (transgression) to the gezar din (verdict) of ashem (guilty), to harsha'ah (condemnation as guilty); but the effect of the unmerited Chen v'Chesed Hashem is from averot rabbot (many transgressions) to zikkuy (acquittal), to that of being YITZDAK IM HASHEM (“justified with G-d,” i.e., acquittal, justification with Hashem of the Many).For if by the averah (transgression) of the one, Mavet (Death) reigned supreme through the one Adam, how much more those, who receive the abundance of unmerited Chen v'Chesed Hashem (grace) and of the Matnat HaTzedakah (the gift of righteousness), shall reign in life through the one Adam, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua.So, then, as through one Averah (transgression) [of Adam] to kol Bnei Adam to harsha'ah (condemnation as guilty), so also through one Mitzvah (righteous or worthy deed) [of Moshiach] to kol Bnei Adam to justification unto Chayei [Olam].For as through the disobedience of the one Adam, the many were made chote'im (sinners), so also through the mishma'at (obedience) of the one Adam, the many will be made tzaddikim (righteous ones).Through whom also we have HaSha'ar laHashem (gate to appoach G-dʼs presence, access of the Tzaddikim) by emunah into this unmerited Chen v'Chesed in which we stand and glory in tikvah of the kavod Eloheinu.
Because, indeed, Moshiach suffered once on behalf of chatta'im (sins), a Tzaddik (righteous one) on behalf of the chote'im (unrighteous ones, sinners), that he might bring you to Hashem he, having been in the basar put to death, yet, in the Ruach Hakodesh, having been made alive;
Arise, shine; for thy ohr is come, and the kavod Hashem is risen upon thee.And the Bnei Nekhar shall build up thy chomot, and their melachim shall minister unto thee; for in My ketzef I struck thee, but in My ratzon have I had rachamim on thee.Therefore thy She'arim shall be open continually; they shall not be shut yomam valailah; that men may bring unto thee the chayil Goyim (wealth of the Nations), and that their melachim may be led in procession.For the Goy and Mamlachah that will not serve thee shall perish; yes, those Goyim shall be utterly ruined. The kavod HaLevanon shall come unto thee, the juniper tree, the box tree, and the cypress together, to beautify the makom (place) of My Mikdash; and I will make the makom of My raglayim glorious.The banim also of them that oppress thee shall come unto thee in submission; and all they that despised thee shall prostrate themselves down at the soles of thy raglayim; and they shall call thee, The Ir of Hashem, Tziyon of Kadosh Yisroel.Whereas thou has been forsaken and hated, so that none passed through thee, I will make thee a Ga'on Olam (Everlasting Pride), a joy dor vador.Thou shalt also drink the cholov Goyim, and shalt nurse at the breast of melachim; and thou shalt know that I Hashem am thy Moshia and thy Go'el, the Avir Ya'akov (Mighty One of Jacob).Instead of nechoshet I will bring zahav, and for barzel (iron) I will bring kesef, and for etzim (wood) nechoshet, and for avanim (stones) barzel (iron); I will also make thy pekudim shalom, and thine nogesim tzedakah.Chamas shall no more be heard in thy land, shod nor shever within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy chomot Yeshu'ah (Salvation), and thy she'arim Tehillah (Praise).The shemesh shall be no more thy ohr yomam; neither for brightness shall the yarei'ach give light unto thee; but Hashem shall be unto thee an Ohr Olam, and thy G-d thy tiferet.For, hinei, the choshech shall cover Eretz, and gross darkness the nations; but Hashem shall arise upon thee, and His kavod shall be seen upon thee.Thy shemesh shall no more go down; neither shall thy yarei'ach wane; for Hashem shall be for thee an Ohr Olam, and the yamim of thy avelut shall be ended.Thy people also shall be all of them tzaddikim; they shall inherit the Eretz l'olam, the Netzer of My planting, the ma'aseh of My hands, that I may be glorified.The katon shall become an elef, and the smallest a mighty nation; I Hashem will hasten it in its time.And the Goyim shall walk by thy ohr, and melachim by the brightness of thy shining.
But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, having da'as of this, departed from there. And many multitudes followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, and he brought refuah to them all.And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach warned them that they should not make him manifest.This was to fulfill what was spoken through Yeshayah HaNavi, saying,HEN AVDI ETMACH BO, BECHIRI RATZTAH NAFSHI, NATATI RUCHI ALAV, MISHPAT LAGOYIM YOTZI, (Here is my Servant, whom I uphold, my Chosen One in whom my Soul delights, I will put my Spirit on him, he will bring Justice to the Nations),LO YITZAK VLO YISSAH VLO YASHMIA BACHUTZ KOLO (He will not shout nor cry out nor raise the sound of his voice in the street.)But the Perushim, seeing this, said to Moshiach: Hinei! Your talmidim are doing what is asur on Shabbos!KANEH RATZUTZ LO YISHBOR UFISHTAH CHEHAH LO YECHABENAH LE-EMET YOTZI MISHPAT (A bruised reed he will not break nor a smoldering wick will he snuff out) until Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach leads mishpat (justice) to victory.And in his Name, HAGOYIM will put their tikvah (hope).
Just as Hashem spoke through the mouth of His neviim hakedoshim meOlam (holy prophets from long ago),That we should have Yeshu'at Eloheinu from our oyvim (enemies) and from the hand of all the ones who regard us with sinas chinom (baseless hatred).Thus Hashem has demonstrated his rachamim (mercy) to Avoteinu (our Fathers) and has remembered his Brit HaKodesh (Holy Covenant),
And so Klal Yisroel shall be delivered, as it is written: Out of Tziyon shall come the Go'el (Deliverer, Redeemer); He will turn away, remove peysha from Ya'akov (Jacob),
And we have the Dvar HaNevu'ah (Word of Prophecy) made more sure, to which you do well in giving heed as to a menorah shining in a place of choshech until HaYom [of Olam Habah] dawns and the Kochav (Star) haNogah (of Brightness, Venus) rises in your levavot (hearts).
Where Yehoshua has entered as a metatron (forerunner) on behalf of us, having become a KOHEN L'OLAM AL DIVRATI MALKI-TZEDEK (Kohen forever according to the order of Malki-Tzedek).
I, Yehoshua sent My malach (angel) to give solemn eidus (testimony) to you of these things, for the Kehillot. I am the Shoresh (root) and the tzemach of Dovid, the Kokhav HaShachar.”
But may it not be to me to boast, except in HaEtz HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu, through whom the Olam Hazeh has become nevelah talui al HaEtz (corpse hanging on the tree) to me, and I have become a nevelah talui al HaEtz (corpse hanging on the tree) to the Olam Hazeh.
Of the increase of his misrah and shalom there shall be no ketz (end), upon the Kisse Dovid, and upon his kingdom, to strengthen it, and to support it with mishpat and with tzedakah from henceforth even ad olam (forever). The Kinat Hashem Tzva'os will fulfill this.Adonoi sent davar against Ya'akov, and it hath fallen upon Yisroel.
The ze'ev (wolf) also shall dwell with the keves, and the namer (leopard) shall lie down with the gedi (young goat); and the egel and the lion whelp and the fatling together; and a na'ar shall lead them.And the parah (cow) and the dov (bear) shall feed together; their yeladim shall lie down together; and the aryeh shall eat teven (straw) like the ox.And the yonek (sucking infant) shall play on the hole of the cobra, and the weaned child shall put his yad in the viperʼs me'urah (hole).They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My Har Kodesh; for ha'aretz shall be full of the da'as Hashem, as the mayim cover the sea.
See, a Melech shall reign in tzedek, and sarim shall rule in mishpat (justice).Days and a shanah, then shall ye tremble, ye careless nashim; for the grape harvest shall fail, the harvest of fruit shall not come.Tremble, ye nashim that are complacently at ease; shake, ye complacent ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.They shall mournfully beat upon their breasts, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful gefen (vine).Upon the admat Ami (land of My People) shall come up kotz (thorns) and briers; indeed, upon all the batim (houses) of joy in the city of merriment;Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the Ir shall be abandoned; the citadel and stronghold shall be ruins ad olam, a delight of wild donkeys, a pasture of adarim (flocks);Until the Ruach be poured upon us from on high, and the midbar become a carmel (fruitful field), and the carmel become a ya'ar (forest).Then mishpat shall dwell in the midbar, and tzedakah live in the carmel.And the ma'aseh (work) of tzedakah (righteousness) shall be shalom; and the effect of tzedakah quietness and assurance ad olam (forever).And my people shall dwell in a naveh shalom (a habitation of peace) and in secure mishkenot (dwellings), and in quiet menuchot (resting places);When it shall hail, coming down on the ya'ar (forest); and the Ir shall be utterly brought down in a low place. And an ish shall be as a sheltering hiding place from the ruach (wind), and a seter (refuge) from the tempest; as streams of mayim in a dry place, as the tzel (shadow) of a great rock in a weary land.
