H1961–הָיָה–ha.yah

And from the daughter of Zion all her splendour is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture; and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.

הָי֣וּ ha.Yu “they have become”

In the days of her affliction and of her wanderings, since her people fell into the hand of an adversary, and none did help her, Jerusalem remembereth all her precious things which she had in the days of old: the adversaries have seen her, they mock at her ruin.

הָי֖וּ ha.Yu “they were”

Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore is she removed as an impurity: all that honoured her despise her because they have seen her nakedness; and she sigheth, and turneth backward.

הָיָ֑תָה ha.Ya.tah “she has become”

All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their precious things for food to revive [ergänzt: their] soul. See, Jehovah, and consider, for I am become vile.

הָיִ֖יתִי ha.Yi.ti “I am”

For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water: for the comforter that should revive my soul is far from me; my children are desolate, for the enemy hath prevailed.

הָי֤וּ ha.Yu “they are”

Zion spreadeth forth her hands; there is none to comfort her; Jehovah hath commanded concerning Jacob, [ergänzt: that] his adversaries [ergänzt: should be] round about him; Jerusalem is as an impurity among them.

הָיְתָ֧ה ha.ye.Tah “it has become”

They have heard that I sigh: I have no comforter: all mine enemies have heard of my calamity; they are glad that thou hast done it. Thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called, and they shall be like unto me.

וְיִֽהְי֥וּ (יִֽהְי֥וּ) yih.Yu “they may be”

The Lord is become as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel; he hath swallowed up all her palaces; he hath destroyed his strongholds, and hath multiplied in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.

הָיָ֨ה ha.Yah “he has become”

Thou hast called up, as on the day of a set feast, my terrors on every side; and in the day of Jehovah's anger there was none that escaped or remained: those that I have nursed and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.

הָיָ֛ה ha.Yah “he was”

I am become a derision to all my people; their song all the day.

הָיִ֤יתִי ha.Yi.ti “I have become”

Who is he that saith, and there cometh to pass, what the Lord hath not commanded?

Their visage is darker than blackness, they are not known in the streets; their skin cleaveth to their bones, it is withered, it is become like a stick.

The slain with the sword are happier than the slain with hunger; for these pine away, stricken through for want of the fruits of the field.

הָיוּ֙ ha.Yu “they are”

The hands of pitiful women have boiled their own children: they were their meat in the ruin of the daughter of my people.

הָי֤וּ ha.Yu “they have been”

Our pursuers were swifter than the eagles of the heavens; they chased us hotly upon the mountains, they laid wait for us in the wilderness.

Remember, O Jehovah, what is come upon us; consider, and see our reproach.

Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [ergänzt: month], on the fifth of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

The appearance of the wheels and their work was as the look of a chrysolite; and they four had one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.

יִהְיֶ֥ה yih.Yeh “it was”

Whithersoever the Spirit was to go, they went, thither would [ergänzt: their] spirit go; and the wheels were lifted up along with them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
