“ As for those who grieve because they cannot attend the festivals– I took them away from you; they became tribute and were a source of shame to you.

那些属你、为无大会愁烦、因你担当羞辱的，我必聚集他们。

我要聚集那些因无节期而愁烦的人，他们曾远离你，是你的重担和羞辱。

“那些属你，为了切慕大会而忧愁的人，他们担当了羞辱；我必招聚他们。

「我必招聚你那裡因不能守節期而憂愁的人，使你不再蒙受羞辱。

“那些屬你，為了切慕大會而憂愁的人，他們擔當了羞辱；我必招聚他們。

像在制定節期的日子一樣。我必撿起災禍、使它離開你；我必舉起羞辱、使它遠離你。

為大會而憂者、我將集之、彼原屬爾、以爾之辱為重負也、

爾中有人、見郇邑被辱、不能守節期、憂心戚戚、若斯之人、我必撫集之、

不得赴節筵而憂者、我必集之、彼乃屬爾者也、彼乃屬爾者也或作彼昔自爾而出彼因郇邑蒙羞、視若重擔、視若重擔或作如負重擔

“ I will remove from you all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals, which is a burden and reproach for you.

The Lord says to his people,“ You used to celebrate my appointed feasts in Jerusalem. You are sad because you can’t do that anymore. Other people make fun of you because of that. That sadness was a heavy load for you to carry. But I will remove that load from you.

I will gather those of you who mourn for the festival, so that you will no longer suffer reproach.

“ I will gather you who mourn for the appointed festivals; you will be disgraced no more.

I will gather those who have been driven from the appointed festivals; they will be a tribute from you and a reproach on her.

I will gather those who are worried about the appointed feasts— They came from you, Zion; The disgrace of exile is a burden on them.

“ I will gather those who sorrow over the appointed assembly, Who are among you, To whom its reproach is a burden.

I will gather them that sorrow for the solemn assembly, who were of thee; to whom the burden upon her was a reproach.

I will gather those who have been driven from the appointed festivals; they will be a tribute from you and a reproach on her.

I will gather[ them that are] sorrowful for the solemn assembly,[ who] are of thee,[ to whom] the reproach of it[ was] a burden.

I will remove those who grieve about the appointed feasts from you. They are a burden and a reproach to you.

I thirst for God, for the living God. I say,“ When will I be able to go and appear in God’s presence?”I cannot eat, I weep day and night; all day long they say to me,“ Where is your God?”I will remember and weep! For I was once walking along with the great throng to the temple of God, shouting and giving thanks along with the crowd as we celebrated the holy festival.

The roads to Zion mourn because no one travels to the festivals. All her city gates are deserted; her priests groan. Her virgins grieve; she is in bitter anguish!ה( He)

“‘ I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries; then I will bring you to your land.

He destroyed his temple as if it were a vineyard; he destroyed his appointed meeting place. The Lord has made those in Zion forget both the festivals and the Sabbaths. In his fierce anger he has spurned both king and priest.ז( Zayin)The Lord rejected his altar and abhorred his temple. He handed over to the enemy her palace walls; the enemy shouted in the Lord’s temple as if it were a feast day.ח( Khet)

So what will you do on the festival day, on the festival days of the Lord?

For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: A partial hardening has happened to Israel until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:“ The Deliverer will come out of Zion; he will remove ungodliness from Jacob.

Then I myself will regather those of my people who are still alive from all the countries where I have driven them. I will bring them back to their homeland. They will greatly increase in number.

Then I will reply,‘ I will bring them back from the land of the north. I will gather them in from the distant parts of the earth. Blind and lame people will come with them, so will pregnant women and women about to give birth. A vast throng of people will come back here.They will come back shedding tears of contrition. I will bring them back praying prayers of repentance. I will lead them besides streams of water, along smooth paths where they will never stumble. I will do this because I am Israel’s father; Ephraim is my firstborn son.’”

At that time I will lead you– at the time I gather you together. Be sure of this! I will make all the nations of the earth respect and admire you when you see me restore you,” says the LORD.

Jerusalem remembers, when she became a poor homeless person, all her treasures that she owned in days of old. When her people fell into an enemy’s grip, none of her allies came to her rescue. Her enemies gloated over her; they sneered at her downfall.ח( Khet)

O God, you are my God! I long for you! My soul thirsts for you, my flesh yearns for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.Yes, in the sanctuary I have seen you, and witnessed your power and splendor.

How lovely is the place where you live, O LORD WHO RULES OVER ALL!I desperately want to be in the courts of the LORD’s temple. My heart and my entire being shout for joy to the living God.

for there our captors ask us to compose songs; those who mock us demand that we be happy, saying:“ Sing for us a song about Zion!”How can we sing a song to the LORD in a foreign land?If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand be crippled!May my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember you, and do not give Jerusalem priority over whatever gives me the most joy.

Then the people of Judah and the people of Israel will be gathered together. They will appoint for themselves one leader, and will flourish in the land. Certainly, the day of Jezreel will be great!

Reveal your light and your faithfulness! They will lead me, they will escort me back to your holy hill, and to the place where you live.

I will bring them out from among the peoples and gather them from foreign countries; I will bring them to their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams and all the inhabited places of the land.
