King James Version
AFR DVK
1
For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water,
Want kyk, die Here, die HERE van leërskare, neem weg van Jérusalem en van Juda die staf en die stut, die hele staf van brood, en die hele staf van water,
2
The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,
Die magtige man, en die man van oorlog, die regter, en die profeet, en die omsigtige, en die bejaarde,
3
The captain of fifty, and the honourable man, and the counseller, and the cunning artificer, and the eloquent orator.
Die kaptein van vyftig, en die eerbare man, en die raadgewer, en die vaardige vakman, en die welsprekende redenaar.
4
And I will give children [to be] their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
En ek sal kinders as hulle vorstes gee, en babas sal oor hulle heers.
5
And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable.
En die volk sal verdruk word, elkeen deur ‚'n ander, en elkeen deur sy naaste: die kind sal homself verhef teen die bejaarde, en die veragtelike teen die eerbare.
6
When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, [saying], Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and [let] this ruin [be] under thy hand:
Wanneer ’n man sy broer van die huis van sy vader gryp, sê, Jy het klere, wees jy ons heerser, en laat hierdie verwoesting onder jou hand wees:
7
In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house [is] neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
In daardie dag sal hy sweer, sê, Ek sal nie ’n geneesheer wees nie; want in my huis is daar nie brood of klere nie: maak my nie ’n heerser van die volk nie.
8
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings [are] against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
Want Jérusalem is geruïneer, en Juda is geval: omdat hulle tong en hulle doenings teen die HERE is, om die oë van sy heerlikheid te terg.
9
The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide [it] not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
Die aangesig van hulle aangesig getuig teen hulle; en hulle verkondig hulle sonde soos Sodom, hulle verberg dit nie. Wee hulle siel! want hulle het beloning aan hulleself gegee.
10
Say ye to the righteous, that [it shall be] well [with him]: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
Sê tot die regverdige, dat dit met hom goed sal gaan: want hulle sal die vrug van hulle doenings eet.
11
Woe unto the wicked! [it shall be] ill [with him]: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
Wee die goddelose! dit sal sleg met hom gaan: want die beloning van sy hande sal aan hom gegee word.
12
[As for] my people, children [are] their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause [thee] to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
Wat my volk betref, kinders is hulle verdrukkers, en vroue heers oor hulle. O my volk, dié wat jou lei, laat jou dwaal, en vernietig die weg van jou paaie.
13
The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people.
Die HERE staan op om te pleit, en staan om die volk te oordeel.
14
The LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor [is] in your houses.
Die HERE sal in oordeel ingaan met die ouderlinge van sy volk, en die vorstes daarvan: want julle het die wingerd opgeëet; die roof van die armes is in julle huise.
15
What mean ye [that] ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord GOD of hosts.
Wat bedoel julle dat julle my volk verbrysel, en die aangesigte van die armes maal? sê die Here GOD van leërskare.
16
Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing [as] they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
Bowendien sê die HERE, Omdat die dogters van Sion hoogmoedig is, en met uitgestrekte nekke wandel en met wellustige oë, wandelende en minagtende soos hulle gaan, en met hulle voete ’n getinkel maak:
17
Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will discover their secret parts.
Daarom sal die Here die kruin van die dogters van Sion met skurfte sla, en die HERE sal hulle geheime dele ontbloot.
18
In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of [their] tinkling ornaments [about their feet], and [their] cauls, and [their] round tires like the moon,
In daardie dag sal die Here die prag van hulle tinkelsierende versiersels, en hulle hoofbande, en hulle ronde versiersels soos die maan,
19
The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
Die kettings, en die armbande, en die sluier,
20
The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings,
Die hooftooisels, en die beenversiersels, en die gordels, en die reukbussies, en die oorringe,
21
The rings, and nose jewels,
Die ringe, en neusringe,
22
The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins,
Die ruilklere, en die mantels, en die wye klere, en die handsakke,
23
The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails.
Die spieëls, en die fyn linne, en die hoods, en die sluier, wegnem.
24
And it shall come to pass, [that] instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; [and] burning instead of beauty.
En dit sal gebeur, dat in plaas van soete reuk daar ‚'n stank sal wees; en in plaas van ‚'n gordel ‚'n skeur; en in plaas van goed gekapte hare, kaalheid; en in plaas van ‚'n stompie, ‚'n gordel van sakdoek; en brandmerk in plaas van skoonheid.
25
Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
Jou manne sal deur die swaard val, en jou magtiges in die oorlog.
26
And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she [being] desolate shall sit upon the ground.
En haar poorte sal treur en treur; en sy sal verwoes sit op die grond.
