Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
46 And Miryam said, My soul doth magnify Hashem [TEHILLIM 34:2,3]
47 ALATZ LIBI BAHASHEM (My heart rejoices in Hashem SHMUEL ALEF 2:1) and my neshamah exalts in Hashem Yishi (G-d my savior, Moshi’a) CHABAKUK 3:18, [TEHILLIM 18:46; YESHAYAH 17:10; 61:10]
48 For HASHEM VISHAFAL YIREH (TEHILLIM 138:6) looked upon the humble state of His shifcha (bond maid) for from now on kol hadorot ishruni (all generations will call me happy, BERESHIS 30:13) [TEHILLIM 138:6]
49 For Shaddai (the Almighty) did gedolot for me and Kadosh is Shmo, [TEHILLIM 111:9]
50 And the chesed of Hashem is DOR VDOR [TEHILLIM 100:5] to those with yirat Shomayim. [SHEMOT 20:6; TEHILLIM 103:17]
51 Hashem has done niflaot (wonders) with his zeroa [arm, YESHAYAH 53:1]. He scattered those who in the machshavot (thoughts) of their levavot are the Gaayonim (the Haughty ones).
52 He brought down shalitim (rulers) from their kisot (thrones) and lifted up the Anavim (Humble),
53 The ones hungering, Hashem made full of tov, and the ashirim he sent away empty. [TEHILLIM 107:9]
54 Hashem helped his servant Yisroel, in remembrance of his rachamim (mercy),
55 Just as Hashem spoke to Avoteinu, to Avraham Avinu and his Zera ad Olam.
17 Thine eynayim shall see Melech in His yafeh (beauty); they shall behold eretz that is very far off.
18 Thine lev shall ponder terror. Where is the sofer (scribe)? Where is he who weighs [for Assyrian tax collection]? Where is he that counts the migdalim (towers)?
19 Thou shalt no longer see a fierce people, a people of unfathomable language that is incomprehensible, of a stammering lashon, that thou canst not understand.
20 Look upon Tziyon, the city of mo’adenu (our appointed times, festivals); thine eynayim shall see Yerushalayim a quiet naveh, an ohel that shall not be taken down; not one stake thereof shall ever be pulled up, neither shall any of the ropes thereof be broken.
21 But there Adir Hashem will be unto us a makom (place) of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall a mighty ship pass thereby.
22 For Hashem is our Shofet, Hashem is Mechokkeinu (our Lawgiver), Hashem is Malkeinu; Hu yoshieinu (He will save us).
6 And he said to me, "These dvarim are ne’emanim and amittiyim, and Hashem, the Elohei ruchot hanevi’im (G-d of the spirits of the prophets) sent His malach (angel) to show to His avadim (servants) things which are imminent.
7 And hinei, I am coming quickly. Ashrey is the one who is shomer, keeping the dvarim hanevu’ah (words of the prophecy) of this sefer (book).”
18 “I give solemn edut to everyone hearing the divrei haNevu’ah of this sefer: if anyone adds to them, Hashem will add to him the makkot (plagues) which are written in this sefer; [DEVARIM 4:2; 12:32; MISHLE 30:6]
19 “And if anyone takes away from the dvarim of the sefer of this nevu’ah (prophecy), Hashem will take away his share of the Etz HaChayyim and from the Ir HaKodesh, which are written of in this sefer. [DEVARIM 4:2; 12:32; MISHLE 30:6]
20 “He who gives solemn edut to these things says, ‘Ken! I am coming bahlt (soon)!’ ” Omein. Come Adoneinu Yehoshua!
