19 When Hashem Eloheicha hath cut off the Goyim, whose land Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee, and thou dispossess them, and dwellest in their towns, and in their batim (houses),
2 Thou shalt separate shalosh arim (three towns) for thee in the midst of thy land, which Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee to possess it.
3 Thou shalt prepare yourselves roads, and divide the territory of thy land, which Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee to inherit, into three parts, that every slayer may flee there.
4 And this is the case of the slayer, which shall flee there, that he may live: Whoso killeth his neighbor without da’as, whom he hated not in time past;
5 As when an ish goeth into the wood with his neighbor to cut wood, his hand swings a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, the head slippeth from the handle, and strikes upon his neighbor, that he die; he shall flee unto one of those towns, and live;
6 Lest the Go’el HaDahm pursue the slayer, while his lev is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and slay him; whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he hated him not in time past.
7 Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate shalosh arim for thee.
8 And if Hashem Eloheicha enlarge thy territory, as He hath sworn unto Avoteicha, and give thee kol ha’aretz which He promised to give unto Avoteicha;
9 If thou shalt be shomer over all these mitzvot to do them, which I command thee today, to love Hashem Eloheicha, and to walk ever in His ways; then shalt thou add three towns more for thee, beside these three;
10 That dahm naki (innocent blood) be not shed in thy land, which Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee for a nachalah, and so dahmim be upon thee.
11 But if any ish hate his neighbor, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and strike him mortally that he die, and fleeth into one of these towns;
12 Then the zekenim of his town shall send and have him taken from there, and deliver him into the yad of the Goel HaDahm, that he may die.
13 Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the guilt of dahm naki from Yisroel, that it may go well with thee.
14 Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor’s landmark, which they of old time have set in thine nachalah, which thou shalt inherit in the eretz that Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee to possess it.
15 Ed echad shall not rise up against an ish for any avon (iniquity), or for any chattat (sin), in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of shney edim, or at the mouth of shloshah edim, shall the matter be established.
16 If an ed chamas (malicious, false witness) rise up against any ish to testify against him that which is wrong;
17 Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before Hashem, before the kohanim and the shofetim, which shall be in those days;
18 And the shofetim shall make diligent inquiry; and, hinei, if the witness be an ed sheker (false witness), and hath testified falsely against his brother;
19 Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shalt thou put harah away from among you.
20 And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such rah among you.
21 And thine eye shall not pity; but nefesh shall go for nefesh, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, yad for yad, regel for regel.
106 Praise Hashem! O give thanks unto Hashem; for He is tov; for His chesed endureth l’olam.
2 Who can speak of the gevurot (mighty acts) of Hashem? Who can show forth all His tehillah (praise)?
3 Ashrei (happy, blessed) are they who are shomrei mishpat, and he that doeth tzedakah at all times.
4 Remember me, Hashem, with the favor that Thou bearest unto Thy people; O visit me with Thy Yeshuah (salvation);
5 That I may see the good of Bechireicha (Thy chosen ones), that I may rejoice in the simchah of Thy nation, that I may glory with Thine nachalah (the people of Thy inheritance).
6 We have sinned with Avoteinu, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7 Avoteinu had no seichal concerning Thy nifla’ot (wonders) in Mitzrayim; they remembered not the multitude of Thy mercies but provoked Him at the yam, even at the Yam Suf.
8 Nevertheless He saved them for the sake of Shmo, that He might make His gevu’rot (mighty power) to be known.
9 He rebuked the Yam Suf also, and it dried up; so He led them through the tehomot, as through the midbar.
10 And He saved them from the yad of him that hated them, and He acted to make the go’el redemption from the yad of the oyev (enemy).
11 And the mayim covered their enemies; there was not echad (one) of them left surviving.
12 Then believed they in His Devarim; they sang His tehillah.
13 Then they hurried, they forgot His ma’asim; they waited not for His etzah (counsel, advice, wisdom);
14 But lusted exceedingly in the midbar, and tempted G-d in the desert.
15 And He gave them their she’elah (request); but sent leanness into their nefesh.
16 They envied Moshe also in the machaneh, and Aharon the kadosh Hashem (Aaron the holy one of Hashem).
17 Eretz opened and swallowed up Datan and covered over the Adat Aviram (the company of Aviram).
18 And an eish was kindled in their edah (assembly); the flame burned up the resha’im.
19 They made an egel (a calf) in Chorev, and worshiped a massekhah (molden image).
20 Thus they exchanged their kavod for a tavnit shor (likeness of an ox) that eateth esev (grass).
21 They forgot G-d their Moshi’a, Who had done gedolot in Mitzrayim;
22 Nifla’ot (wondrous works) in Eretz Cham, and nora’ot (awesome things) by the Yam Suf.
23 Therefore He said that He would destroy them, had not Moshe His bechir (chosen one) stood before Him in the peretz (breach), to turn away His wrath, lest He should destroy them.
24 Then they despised the eretz chemdah (desirable land); they believed not His Devar;
25 But murmured in their ohalim, and paid heed not unto the kol (voice) of Hashem.
26 Therefore [in oath] He lifted up His yad against them, that He would overthrow them in the midbar;
27 To make their zera fall also among the Goyim, and to scatter them among the aratzot (lands).
28 They joined themselves also unto Ba’al-Pe’or, and ate the zivkhei mesim (sacrifices offered to the dead).
29 Thus they provoked Him to anger with their inventions; and the magefah (plague) broke out among them.
30 Then stood up Pinchas, and interposed; and so the magefah (plague) was halted.
31 And that was counted unto him for tzedakah l’dor vador ad olam.
32 They angered Him also at the waters of Merivah, so that it went ill with Moshe on their account;
33 Because they provoked His Ruach [Hakodesh] and he [Moshe] spoke unadvisedly with his sfatayim (lips).
34 They did not destroy the amim (peoples), as Hashem commanded them;
35 But they mingled with the Goyim, and learned their ma’asim (works, customs).
36 And they served their atzabim (idols); which were a mokesh (snare) unto them.
37 And, they sacrificed their banim and their banot unto shedim (demons),
38 And they shed dahm naki (innocent blood), even the dahm of their banim and of their banot, whom they sacrificed unto the atzabei Kena’an (idols of Canaan); and HaAretz was polluted with blood-guilt.
39 Thus they made themselves tameh with their own ma’asim, and went awhoring with their own inventions.
40 Therefore was the wrath of Hashem kindled against His people, insomuch that He abhorred His own nachalah.
41 And He gave them into the yad Goyim; and they that hated them ruled over them.
42 Their oyevim also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their yad.
43 Many times did He deliver them; but they provoked Him with their etzah (counsel), and so perished in their avon (iniquity).
44 Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, when He heard their rinnah (cry of grief);
45 And He remembered for their sake His Brit, and relented according to the multitude of His chasadim (lovingkindnesses).
46 He made them also to be pitied with rachamim by all those that carried them away as captives.
47 Hoshieini (save us), Hashem Eloheinu, and gather us from among the Goyim, to give thanks unto Thy Shem Kadosh, and to glory in Thy tehillah (praise).
48 Baruch Hashem Elohei Yisroel min haOlam v’ad haOlam; and let kol HaAm say, Omein. Praise Hashem!
46 Bel boweth down, Nevo stoopeth low, their atzabim (idols) were upon the beasts, and upon the behemah; your litters were heavy laden; they are a massa (burden) to the weary beast.
2 They stoop, they bow down together; they [Bel and Nevo, g-ds of Babylon] could not save the massa (burden), but their own selves are gone into shevi (captivity, Golus).
3 Pay heed unto Me, O Bais Ya’akov, and kol She’erit Bais Yisroel, who are borne by Me from birth, who are carried from the rechem (womb);
4 And even to your ziknah (old age) I am He; and even to [your] gray hair will I carry you; I have made, and I will carry; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
5 Lemi (to whom) will ye compare Me, and make Me equal, and liken Me, that we may be comparable?
6 They lavish zahav out of the bag, and weigh kesef on the scale, and hire a tzoref (goldsmith); and he maketh it El (G-d); they fall down, yes, they bow down in worship.
7 They bear him upon the katef (shoulder), they carry him, and set him up in his place, and he standeth; from his makom shall he not move; yes, though one shall cry out unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his tzoros.
8 Remember this, and stand firm; bring it again to lev (heart, mind), O ye poshe’im (rebelling, transgressing ones).
9 Remember the rishonot (former things) me’olam (of old); for I am El (G-d), and there is not another [G-d]; Elohim, and there is none like Me.
10 Making known acharim (end-times things) from reshit (the beginning), and mikedem (from ancient times) the things that have not yet happened, saying, My etza (counsel, purpose, plan) shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure;
11 Calling a bird of prey from the mizrach (east), the ish that executeth My etza (counsel, purpose, plan) from a far country; yes, I have spoken it, I will indeed bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
12 Pay heed unto Me, ye abirei lev (stubborn of heart), that are far from tzedakah;
13 I bring near My tzedakah; it shall not be far off, and My Teshuah (Salvation) shall not tarry; and I will place Teshuah in Tziyon for Yisroel Tife’arti (My Glory).
16 And I heard a kol gadol (loud voice) out of Heikhal saying to the shiva malachim (seven angels), “Go and pour out the sheva ke’arot (seven bowls) of the Charon Af of Hashem (the burning wrath of Hashem) onto ha’aretz (the earth).” [TEHILLIM 79:6; TZEFANYAH 3:8]
2 And harishon (the first [malach]) departed and poured out his ke’ara (bowl) onto ha’aretz (the earth), and a bad and rah (evil) sore came on the Bnei Adam having the mark of the Chayyah (Beast, Anti-Moshiach) and the ones worshiping its Atzav (idol, image). [SHEMOT 9:9-11; DEVARIM 28:35]
3 And hasheyni (the second [malach]) poured out his ke’ara (bowl) onto the yam (sea). It became like the dahm of a niftar (deceased person), and every living thing in the yam (sea) died. [SHEMOT 7:17- 21]
4 And hashlishi (the third [malach]) poured out his ke’ara (bowl) onto the neharot (rivers) and the ma’ayonot (springs) of mayim (water), and the mayim became dahm. [SHEMOT 7:7-21]
5 And I heard the malach (angel) of the mayim (waters) saying, “Tzaddik are You, the One who is, the One who was, HaKadosh (the Holy One), because You have judged these things,
6 "Because they (those of Anti-Moshiach) shed the dahm of the Kadoshim and because the dahm of the Nevi’im they poured out, and You have given them dahm to drink! They are deserving of it!" [YESHAYAH 49:26]
7 And I heard the Mizbe’ach (altar) crying out, saying, "Ken, Hashem, Adonoi Tzva’ot, Emes and Tzedek are Your Mishpatim (Judgments)."
8 And harevi’i (the fourth [malach, angel]) poured out his ke’ara (bowl) onto the shemesh (sun), and it was given to the shemesh (sun) to scorch Bnei Adam with eish (fire).
9 And Bnei Adam were scorched with khom gadol (great heat), and they spoke Chillul Hashem gidufim (blasphemies) against ha-Shem of G-d‖the One having the shilton (authority) over these makkot (plagues)‖and they did not make teshuva so as to give Hashem kavod (glory).
10 And hachamishi (the fifth [malach, angel]) poured out his ke’ara (bowl) on the kes (throne) of the Chayyah [Beast, Anti-Moshiach]; and the Malchut (Kingdom) of the Chayyah (Beast, Anti-Moshiach) became darkened, and in agony they were gnawing their tongues. [Ex 10:21-23; Isa 8:22]
11 And they spoke Chillul Hashem gidufim (blasphemies) against Elohei HaShomayim (the G-d of Heaven) because of their agony and because of their sores, and they did not make teshuva from their ma’asim (deeds).
12 And hashishi (the sixth [malach]) poured out his ke’ara (bowl) on the nahar hagadol (the great river), the Euphrates, and the mayim (water) of it was dried up, that the derech (way) of the melachim (kings) from the rising of the shemesh (sun) might be prepared. [Isa 11:15,16; 41:2; 46:11]
13 And I saw coming out of the PEH (mouth) of the Dragon NACHASH and out of the PEH of the Chayyah (Beast, Anti-Moshiach) and out of the PEH of the Navi Sheker (False Prophet) shalosh ruchot teme’ot (three unclean spirits) like tzfarde’im (frogs), [SHEMOT 8:6]
14 For they are ruchot (spirits) of shedim (demons) performing otot (miraculous signs), which go forth to the melachim (kings) of kol ha’aretz (all the earth) to gather them to the sadeh krav (battlefield) of the Yom HaGadol (Great Day) of Hashem Adonoi Tzva’ot.
15 Hinei, I am coming as unexpectantly as a ganav. Ashrey is the one watching and keeping his kittel, lest he walk naked and they see his bushah (shame).
16 And they assembled them into the place being called in Ivrit, Har Megiddo. [Ex 5:19; 2Kgs 23:29,30; Zech 12:11]
17 And hashevi’i (malach [angel]) poured out his ke’ara (bowl) on the air, and there came a kol gadol (loud voice) out of the Heikhal from the Kes (Throne) saying, "It is a thing of derfilung (fulfillment), it is finished!"
18 And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and re’amim (thunder), and a horrendous earthquake occurred such as never did occur vi-bahlt (since) Bnei Adam were on ha’aretz (the earth), so mighty an earthquake, so violent. [DANIEL 12:1]
19 And Ir HaGedolah (the Great City) became split into thirds and the cities of the Goyim (Nations) fell. And Hashem remembered Babel HaGedolah (Babylon the Great), to give her the kos (cup) of the yayin (wine) of his Charon Af (burning wrath).
20 And every island fled, and mountains were not found.
21 And great seventypound hailstones of barad (hail) come down from Shomayim, on Bnei Adam, and Bnei Adam spoke Chillul Hashem gidufim (blasphemies) against Hashem, because of the makkah (plague) of the hailstones, because the makkah (plague) of it is gedolah me’od.[Ezek 13:13; 38:22; Ex 9:23-25]
