Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
53 (For the one directing. According to ma’alot. Maskil of Dovid). The naval (fool) hath said in his lev, Ein Elohim (There is no G-d). Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity; there is none that doeth tov.
2 (3) Elohim looked down from Shomayim upon Bnei Adam, to see if there were any of seichel, that did seek Elohim.
3 (4) Every one of them has fallen away; they are altogether perverse; there is none that doeth tov, no, not echad (one).
4 (5) Have the workers of iniquity no da’as? Who eat up My people as they eat lechem; they have not called upon Elohim.
5 (6) There were they in great pachad (fear), pachad such as never was; for Elohim hath scattered the atzmot of him that encampeth against thee; thou [Yisroel] hast put them to shame, because Elohim hath rejected them.
6 (7) Oh that the Yeshuat Yisroel would come out of Tziyon! When Elohim bringeth back the captivity of Amo (His people), Ya’akov shall rejoice, and Yisroel shall be glad.
26 And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,
27 Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be Yom Kippurim; it shall be a mikra kodesh unto you; and ye shall afflict your nefashot, and offer an offering made by eish unto Hashem.
28 And ye shall do no work in that same day; for it is Yom Kippurim, to make kapporah for you before Hashem Eloheichem.
29 For whatsoever nefesh it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
30 And whatsoever nefesh it be that doeth any work in that same day, that nefesh will I destroy from among his people.
31 Ye shall do no manner of work; it shall be a chukkat olam throughout your dorot in all your dwellings.
32 It shall be unto you a Shabbos Shabbaton, and ye shall afflict your nefashot; in the ninth day of the month at erev, from erev unto erev, shall ye observe your Shabbos.
33 And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,
34 Speak unto the Bnei Yisroel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Chag HaSukkot for shivat yamim unto Hashem.
35 On the Yom HaRishon shall be a mikra kodesh; ye shall do no melekhet avodah (laborious work) therein.
36 Shivat yamim ye shall offer an offering made by eish unto Hashem; on the eighth day shall be a mikra kodesh unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by eish unto Hashem; it is an atzeret (assembly); and ye shall do no melekhet avodah therein.
37 These are the Mo’adim of Hashem, which ye shall proclaim to be mikra’ei kodesh, to offer an offering made by eish unto Hashem‖an olah (burnt offering), and a minchah, a zevach, and nesakim, every required thing upon its day,
38 Beside the Shabbatot of Hashem, and beside your mattenot, and beside all your nederim, and beside all your nedavot (freewill offerings), which ye give unto Hashem.
39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the crop of HaAretz, ye shall keep a Chag (Feast) unto Hashem shivat yamim; on the first day shall be a Shabbaton, and on the eighth day shall be a Shabbaton.
40 And ye shall take you on the Yom HaRishon the fruit of the citron tree, branches of temarim (date palms), and twigs of plaited trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before Hashem Eloheichem shivat yamim.
41 And ye shall keep it a Chag (Feast) unto Hashem shivat yamim in the shanah. It shall be a chukkat olam in your dorot; ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
19 After these things I heard, as it were, a kol gadol (loud voice) of a great, multititude in Shomayim, saying, "Praise Hashem! The Yeshu’ah (Salvation) and the Kavod (Glory) and the Gevurah (Power) is of Eloheinu!
2 “Because emes and tzedek are His judgments because He judged the Zonah Hagedolah who was corrupting ha’aretz (the earth) with the zenut (fornication) of her and He took vengeance on her who has on her hands the dahm of His servants."
3 And again they said, “Praise Hashem! The smoke of her ascends l’olemei olamim!” [YESHAYAH 34:10]
4 And the esrim v’arba’ah Zekenim (twenty-four Elders) fell down and the Arbah Chayyot (four living beings) and they worshiped Hashem who sits on the Kes (Throne), saying, “Omein, Praise Hashem!”
5 And a kol (voice) from the Kes (Throne) came forth, saying, “Say ‘Baruch Hashem Eloheinu,’ all you avadim (servants) of him and the ones with yirat Shomayim, ketanim (small ones) and the gedolim (great ones).” [TEHILLIM 134:1; 115:13]
6 And I heard, as it were, a sound of a great multitude and a sound like mayim rabbim (many waters) and a sound like mighty thunder saying, “ Baruch Hashem! Because Hashem Eloheinu reigns, El Shaddai.
7 “Let us have simcha and exult, and give kavod (glory) to him because has come the Yom HaChuppah, the Yom Nisu’im of the SEH (Lamb, SHEMOT 12:3; YESHAYAH 53:7 Moshiach), and His Kallah (Bride) has made herself ready.”
8 And it was given to her that she should be clothed with fine linen, bright and tahor (clean); for the fine linen are the Tzedakot of the Kadoshim. [YESHAYAH 61:10; YECHEZKEL 44:17; ZECHARYAH 3:4]
