See, a Melech shall reign in tzedek, and sarim shall rule in mishpat (justice).
And an ish shall be as a sheltering hiding place from the ruach (wind), and a seter (refuge) from the tempest; as streams of mayim in a dry place, as the tzel (shadow) of a great rock in a weary land.

וְלֹ֥א SDBH will no longer תִשְׁעֶ֖ינָה SDBH be closed עֵינֵ֣י SDBH Then the eyes רֹאִ֑ים SDBH of those who see וְאָזְנֵ֥י SDBH and the ears שֹׁמְעִ֖ים SDBH of those who hear תִּקְשַֽׁבְנָה׃ SDBH will listen
And the eynayim of them that see shall no longer be closed, and the oznayim of them that hear shall pay heed.
The levav also of the rash shall understand da'as, and the lashon of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
The naval (foolish person) shall be no more called noble, nor the scoundrel said to be honorable.
For the naval will speak foolishness, and his lev will work evil, to practise khonef (hypocrisy), and to utter to'ah (error, perversity) against Hashem, to leave unsatisfied the nefesh of the ra'av (hungry), and he will cause the drink of the tzameh (thirsty) to fail.
The schemes also of the schemer are ra'im (evil ones); he deviseth zimmot (wicked schemes) to destroy the poor with words of sheker, even when the evyon (needy) speaketh mishpat (justly).
But the noble maketh plans that are noble; and by noble things shall he stand.
Rise up, ye nashim that are complacently at ease; hear my voice, ye banot at ease; give ozen unto my speech.

יָמִים֙ SDBH In a little more than עַל־ . . . שָׁנָ֔ה SDBH a year תִּרְגַּ֖זְנָה SDBH you will tremble בֹּֽטְח֑וֹת SDBH O secure ones כִּ֚י For כָּלָ֣ה SDBH will fail בָצִ֔יר SDBH the grape harvest אֹ֖סֶף SDBH and the fruit harvest בְּלִ֥י SDBH will not יָבֽוֹא׃ SDBH arrive
Days and a shanah, then shall ye tremble, ye careless nashim; for the grape harvest shall fail, the harvest of fruit shall not come.
11
חִרְדוּ֙ SDBH Shudder שַֽׁאֲנַנּ֔וֹת SDBH you ladies of leisure רְגָ֖זָה SDBH tremble בֹּֽטְח֑וֹת SDBH you daughters of complacency פְּשֹׁ֣טָֽה SDBH Strip וְעֹ֔רָה SDBH yourselves bare וַחֲג֖וֹרָה SDBH and put עַל־ sackcloth around חֲלָצָֽיִם׃ SDBH your waists
Tremble, ye nashim that are complacently at ease; shake, ye complacent ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.
They shall mournfully beat upon their breasts, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful gefen (vine).
13
Upon the admat Ami (land of My People) shall come up kotz (thorns) and briers; indeed, upon all the batim (houses) of joy in the city of merriment;
14
Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the Ir shall be abandoned; the citadel and stronghold shall be ruins ad olam, a delight of wild donkeys, a pasture of adarim (flocks);
15
Until the Ruach [Hakodesh] be poured upon us from on high, and the midbar become a carmel (fruitful field), and the carmel become a ya'ar (forest).
16
וְשָׁכַ֥ן SDBH will inhabit בַּמִּדְבָּ֖ר SDBH the wilderness מִשְׁפָּ֑ט SDBH Then justice וּצְדָקָ֖ה SDBH and righteousness בַּכַּרְמֶ֥ל SDBH in the fertile field תֵּשֵֽׁב׃ SDBH will dwell
Then mishpat shall dwell in the midbar, and tzedakah live in the carmel.
And the ma'aseh (work) of tzedakah (righteousness) shall be shalom; and the effect of tzedakah quietness and assurance ad olam (forever).
And my people shall dwell in a naveh shalom (a habitation of peace) and in secure mishkenot (dwellings), and in quiet menuchot (resting places);
When it shall hail, coming down on the ya'ar (forest); and the Ir shall be utterly brought down in a low place [of humiliation].
Blessed are ye that sow beside all mayim, that send forth there the regel of the shor (ox) and the chamor (donkey).
