- Kapitel 27 -

(John 15:1–8)

In that day YHWH lays a charge, || With His sword—the sharp, and the great, and the strong, || On leviathan—a fleeing serpent, || And on leviathan—a crooked serpent, || And He has slain the dragon that [is] in the sea.

In that day respond to her, “A desirable vineyard,

I, YHWH, am its keeper, || I water it every moment, || Lest any lay a charge against it, || Night and day I keep it!

Fury is not in Me; Who gives Me a brier—a thorn in battle? I step into it, || I burn it at once.

Or—he takes hold on My strength, || [That] he makes peace with Me, || [And] he makes peace with Me.”

He causes those coming in to take root, || Jacob blossoms, and Israel has flourished, || And they have filled the face of the world [with] increase.

Has He struck him as the striking of his striker? Does He slay as the slaying of his slain?

In measure, in sending it forth, you strive with it, || He has taken away by His sharp wind, || In the day of an east wind,

Therefore the iniquity of Jacob is covered by this, || And this [is] all the fruit—To take away his sin, || In his setting all the stones of an altar, || As chalkstones beaten in pieces, || They do not rise—Asherim and images.

For the fortified city [is] alone, || A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, || There the calf delights, || And there it lies down, || And has consumed its branches.

In the withering of its branch it is broken off, || Women are coming in [and] setting it on fire, || For it [is] not a people of understanding, || Therefore its Maker does not pity it, || And its Former does not favor it.

And it has come to pass in that day, || YHWH beats out from the branch of the river, || To the stream of Egypt, || And you are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.

And it has come to pass in that day, || It is blown with a great horn, || And those perishing in the land of Asshur have come in, || And those cast out in the land of Egypt, || And have bowed themselves to YHWH, || In the holy mountain—in Jerusalem!

(John 15:1–8)

In that day, the LORD with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent, and leviathan, the twisted serpent; and he will kill the dragon that is in the sea.

In that day, sing to her, “A pleasant vineyard!

I, the LORD, am its keeper. I will water it every moment. Lest anyone damage it, I will keep it night and day.

Wrath is not in me, but if I should find briers and thorns, I would do battle! I would march on them and I would burn them together.

Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Let him make peace with me.”

In days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will blossom and bud. They will fill the surface of the world with fruit.

Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? Or are they killed like those who killed them were killed?

In measure, when you send them away, you contend with them. He has removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.

Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherah poles and the incense altars shall rise no more.

For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness. The calf will feed there, and there he will lie down, and consume its branches.

When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off. The women will come and set them on fire, for they are a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.

It will happen in that day that the LORD will thresh from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.

It will happen in that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt, shall come; and they will worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
