Fejezetek:


1. vers

Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice.


2. vers

A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the storm, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a large rock in a weary land.


3. vers

The eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will listen.


4. vers

The heart of the rash will understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.


5. vers

The fool will no longer be called noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.


6. vers

For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice profanity, and to utter error against Yahweh, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.


7. vers

The ways of the scoundrel are evil. He devises wicked plans to destroy the humble with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.


8. vers

But the noble devises noble things, and he will continue in noble things.


9. vers

Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my voice! You careless daughters, give ear to my speech!


10. vers

For days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless women; for the vintage will fail. The harvest won’t come.


11. vers

Tremble, you women who are at ease! Be troubled, you careless ones! Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked, and put sackcloth on your waist.


12. vers

Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.


13. vers

Thorns and briers will come up on my people’s land; yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.


14. vers

For the palace will be forsaken. The populous city will be deserted. The hill and the watchtower will be for dens forever, a delight for wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks,


15. vers

until the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered a forest.


16. vers

Then justice will dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.


17. vers

The work of righteousness will be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.


18. vers

My people will live in a peaceful habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting places,


19. vers

though hail flattens the forest, and the city is leveled completely.


20. vers

Blessed are you who sow beside all waters, who send out the feet of the ox and the donkey.
