1 This is the book of the commandments of
God, and the law, that is for ever: all they that
keep it, shall come to life: but they that have forsaken it, to death.
2 Return,
O Jacob, and take hold of it, walk in the way by its brightness, in the
presence of the light thereof.
3 Give not
thy honour to another, nor thy dignity to a strange
nation.
4 We are
happy, O Israel: because the things that are pleasing to God, are made known
to us.
5 Be of
good comfort, O people of God, the memorial of Israel:
6 You have
been sold to the Gentiles, not for your destruction: but because you provoked
God to wrath, you are delivered to your adversaries.
7 For you
have provoked him who made you, the eternal God, offering sacrifice to
devils, and not to God.
8 For you
have forgotten God, who brought you up, and you have grieved Jerusalem that
nursed you.
9 For she
saw the wrath of God coming upon you, and she said: Give ear, all you that
dwell near Sion, for God hath brought upon me great
mourning:
10 For I
have seen the captivity of my people, of my sons, and my daughters, which the
Eternal hath brought upon them.
11 For I
nourished them with joy: but I sent them away with weeping and mourning.
12 Let no
man rejoice over me, a widow, and desolate: I am forsaken of many for the
sins of my children, because they departed from the law of God.
13 And they
have not known his justices, nor walked by the ways of God's commandments,
neither have they entered by the paths of his truth and justice.
14 Let them
that dwell about Sion come, and remember the
captivity of my sons and daughters, which the Eternal hath brought upon them.
15 For he hath brought a nation upon them from afar, a wicked
nation, and of a strange tongue:
16 Who have
neither reverenced the ancient, nor pitied children, and have carried away
the beloved of the widow, and have left me all alone without children.
17 But as
for me, what help can I give you?
18 But he
that hath brought the evils upon you, he will deliver you out of the hands of
your enemies.
19 Go your
way, my children, go your way: for I am left alone.
20 I have
put off the robe of peace, and have put upon me the sackcloth of
supplication, and I will cry to the most High in my days.
21 Be of
good comfort, my children, cry to the Lord, and he will deliver you out of
the hand of the princes your enemies.
22 For my
hope is in the Eternal that he will save you: and joy is come upon me from
the Holy One, because of the mercy which shall come to you from our
everlasting Saviour.
23 For I
sent you forth with mourning and weeping: but the Lord will bring you back to
me with joy and gladness for ever.
24 For as
the neighbours of Sion
have now seen your captivity from God: so shall they also shortly see your
salvation from God, which shall come upon you with great honour,
and everlasting glory.
25 My
children, suffer patiently the wrath that is come upon you: for thy enemy
hath persecuted thee, but thou shalt quickly see
his destruction: and thou shalt get up upon his
neck.
26 My
delicate ones have walked rough ways, for they were taken away as a flock
made a prey by the enemies.
27 Be of
good comfort, my children, and cry to the Lord: for you shall be remembered
by him that hath led you away.
28 For as it
was your mind to go astray from God; so when you return again you shall seek
him ten times as much.
29 For he
that hath brought evils upon you, shall bring you everlasting joy again with
your salvation.
30 Be of
good heart, O Jerusalem: for he exhorteth thee,
that named thee.
31 The
wicked that have afflicted thee, shall perish: and they that have rejoiced at
thy ruin, shall be punished.
32 The cities
which thy children have served, shall be punished: and she that received thy
sons.
33 For as
she rejoiced at thy ruin, and was glad of thy fall: so shall she be grieved
for her own desolation.
34 And the
joy of her multitude shall be cut off: and her gladness shall be turned to
mourning.
35 For fire
shall come upon her from the Eternal, long to endure, and she shall be
inhabited by devils for a great time.
36 Look
about thee, O Jerusalem, towards the east, and behold the joy that cometh to
thee from God.
37 For
behold thy children come, whom thou sentest away
scattered, they come gathered together from the east even to the west, at the
word of the Holy One rejoicing for the honour of
God.

1- هذا كتاب اوامر الله و
الشريعة التي الى الابد كل من تمسك بها فله الحياة و الذين يهملونها يموتون.
2- تب يا يعقوب و اتخذها و سر في الضياء تجاه
نورها.
3- لا تعط مجدك لاخر و مزيتك لامة غريبة.
4- طوبى لنا يا اسرائيل لان ما
يرضي عند الله معروف لدينا.
5- ثقوا يا شعبي يا تذكار اسرائيل.
6- فانكم لم تباعوا للامم
لهلاككم و لكن بما انكم اسخطتم الله قد اسلمتم الى اعدائكم.
7- لانكم اغضبتم صانعكم اذ ذبحتم للشياطين لا
لله.
8- و نسيتم رازقكم الاله الازلي و حزنتم
مربيتكم اورشليم.
9- انها رات الغضب الذي حل بكم من قبل الله
فقالت اسمعن يا جارات صهيون ان الله قد جلب علي نوحا عظيما.
10- فاني رايت سبي بني و بناتي الذي جلبه
عليهم الازلي.
11- اني ربيتهم بفرح ثم ودعتهم ببكاء و نوح.
12- لا يشمتن احد بي انا الارملة التي ثكلت
كثيرين فاني قد اوحشت لاجل خطايا بني لانهم زاغوا عن شريعة الله.
13- و لم يعرفوا رسومه و لم يسلكوا في طرق
وصايا الله و لم يسيروا في سبل التادب ببره.
14- هلم يا جارات صهيون فاذكرن سبي بني و
بناتي الذي جلبه عليهم الازلي.
15- فانه جلب عليهم امة من بعيد امة وقحة
اعجمية اللسان.
16- لم تهب شيخا و لم تشفق على طفل فذهبوا
باحباء الارملة و اثكلوا المتوحدة بناتها.
17- باي شيء استطيع ان اغيثكم.
18- الذي جلب عليكم الشر هو
ينقذكم من ايدي اعدائكم.
19- سيروا يا بني سيروا اني بقيت مستوحشة.
20- قد خلعت حلة السلام و لبست
مسح التضرع اصرخ الى الازلي مدى ايامي.
21- ثقوا يا بني و استغيثوا بالله فينقذكم من
ايدي الاعداء المتسلطين عليكم.
22- فاني قد رجوت بالازلي خلاصكم و حلت بي
مسرة من لدن القدوس بالرحمة التي تؤتونها عما قليل من عند الازلي مخلصكم.
23- قد ودعتكم ببكاء و نوح و لكن الله سيردكم
لي بفرح و مسرة الى الابد.
24- فكما ترى الان جارات صهيون سبيكم هكذا عما
قليل سيرين خلاصكم من عند الله تؤتونه بمجد عظيم و ببهاء الازلي.
25- يا بني احتملوا بالصبر الغضب الذي حل بكم
من الله قد اضطهدك العدو لكنك سترى هلاكه عن قليل و تطا رقابهم.
26- ان مترفي سلكوا طرقا وعرة و سيقوا كغنم
نهبتها الاعداء.
27- ثقوا يا بني و استغيثوا بالله فان الذي
جلب عليكم هذه سيتذكركم.
28- و كما كنتم تهوون ان تشردوا عن الله فبقدر
ذلك عشر مرات تلتمسونه تائبين.
29- و الذي جلب عليكم الشر يجلب لكم المسرة
الابدية مع خلاصكم.
30- ثقي يا اورشليم فان الذي سماك باسمه
يعزيك.
31- ويل للذين جاروا عليك و شمتوا بسقوطك.
32- ويل للمدن التي استعبدت بنيك ويل للتي
اخذت اولادك.
33- فانها كما شمتت بسقوطك و فرحت بخرابك كذلك
ستكتئب عند دمارها.
34- و ابطل مفاخرتها بكثرة سكانها و احول
مرحها الى نوح.
35- لان نار تنزل عليها من عند الازلي الى
ايام كثيرة و تسكنها الشياطين طول الزمان.
36- تطلعي يا اورشليم من حولك نحو المشرق و
انظري المسرة الوافدة عليك من عند الله.
37- ها ان بنيك الذين ودعتهم قادمون يقدمون
مجتمعين من المشرق الى المغرب بكلمة القدوس مبتهجين بمجد الله
