Isaiah 1 1. The vision <02377> of Isaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531>, which <0834> he saw <02372> concerning <05921> Judah <03063> and Jerusalem <03389> in the days <03117> of Uzziah <05818>, Jotham <03147>, Ahaz <0271>, [and] Hezekiah <02396>, kings <04428> of Judah <03063>. 2. Hear <08085>, O heavens <08064>, and give ear <0238>, O earth <0776>: for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696>, I have nourished <01431> and brought <07311> up children <01121>, and they have rebelled <06586> against me. 3 The ox <07794> knoweth <03045> his owner <07069>, and the ass <02543> his master's <01167> crib <018>: [but] Israel <03478> doth not know <03045>, my people <05971> doth not consider <0995>. 4 Ah <01945> sinful <02398> nation <01471>, a people <05971> laden <03515> with iniquity <05771>, a seed <02233> of evildoers <07489>, children <01121> that are corrupters <07843>: they have forsaken <05800> the LORD <03068>, they have provoked <05006> the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478> unto anger <05006>, they are gone <02114> away backward <0268>. 5 Why should ye be stricken <05221> any more <05750>? ye will revolt <05627> more and more: the whole <03605> head <07218> is sick <02483>, and the whole <03605> heart <03824> faint <01742>. 6 From the sole <03709> of the foot <07272> even unto the head <07218> [there is] no <0369> soundness <04974> in it; [but] wounds <06482>, and bruises <02250>, and putrifying <02961> sores <04347>: they have not been closed <02115>, neither <03808> bound <02280> up, neither <03808> mollified <07401> with ointment <08081>. 7 Your country <0776> [is] desolate <08077>, your cities <05892> [are] burned <08313> with fire <0784>: your land <0127>, strangers <02114> devour <0398> it in your presence <05048>, and [it is] desolate <08077>, as overthrown <04114> by strangers <02114>. 8 And the daughter <01323> of Zion <06726> is left <03498> as a cottage <05521> in a vineyard <03754>, as a lodge <04412> in a garden of cucumbers <04750>, as a besieged <05341> city <05892>. 9 Except <03884> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> had left <03498> unto us a very <04592> small <04592> remnant <08300>, we should have been <01961> as Sodom <05467>, [and] we should have been like <01819> unto Gomorrah <06017>. 10. Hear <08085> the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, ye rulers <07101> of Sodom <05467>; give ear <0238> unto the law <08451> of our God <0430>, ye people <05971> of Gomorrah <06017>. 11 To what <04100> purpose [is] the multitude <07230> of your sacrifices <02077> unto me? saith <0559> the LORD <03068>: I am full <07646> of the burnt <05930> offerings of rams <0352>, and the fat <02459> of fed <04806> beasts <04806>; and I delight <02654> not in the blood <01818> of bullocks <06499>, or of lambs <03532>, or of he goats <06260>. 12 When <03588> ye come <0935> to appear <07200> before <06440> me, who <04310> hath required <01245> this <02063> at your hand <03027>, to tread <07429> my courts <02691>? 13 Bring <0935> no <03808> more <05750> vain <07723> oblations <04503>; incense <07004> is an abomination <08441> unto me; the new <02320> moons <02320> and sabbaths <07676>, the calling <07121> of assemblies <04744>, I cannot away with; [it is] iniquity <0205>, even the solemn <02282> meeting <06116>. 14 Your new <02320> moons <02320> and your appointed <04150> feasts my soul <05315> hateth <08130>: they are a trouble <02960> unto me; I am weary <03811> to bear <05375> [them]. 15 And when ye spread <06566> forth your hands <03709>, I will hide <05956> mine eyes <05869> from you: yea <01571>, when <03588> ye make many <07235> prayers <08605>, I will not hear <08085>: your hands <03027> are full <04390> of blood <01818>. 16. Wash <07364> you, make you clean <02135>; put <05493> away <05493> the evil <07455> of your doings <04611> from before <05048> mine eyes <05869>; cease <02308> to do evil <07489>; 17 Learn <03925> to do well <03190>; seek <01875> judgment <04941>, relieve <0833> the oppressed <02541>, judge <08199> the fatherless <03490>, plead <07378> for the widow <0490>. 18 Come <03212> now <04994>, and let us reason <03198> together, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>: though <0518> your sins <02399> be as scarlet <08144>, they shall be as white <03835> as snow <07950>; though <0518> they be red <0119> like <01819> crimson <08438>, they shall be as wool <06785>. 19 If <0518> ye be willing <014> and obedient <08085>, ye shall eat <0398> the good <02898> of the land <0776>: 20 But if <0518> ye refuse <03985> and rebel <04784>, ye shall be devoured <0398> with the sword <02719>: for the mouth <06310> of the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> [it]. 21. How <0349> is the faithful <0539> city <07151> become <01961> an harlot <02181>! it was full <04392> of judgment <04941>; righteousness <06664> lodged <03885> in it; but now <06258> murderers <07523>. 22 Thy silver <03701> is become <01961> dross <05509>, thy wine <05435> mixed <04107> with water <04325>: 23 Thy princes <08269> [are] rebellious <05637>, and companions <02270> of thieves <01590>: every <03605> one loveth <0157> gifts <07810>, and followeth <07291> after rewards <08021>: they judge <08199> not the fatherless <03490>, neither <03808> doth the cause <07379> of the widow <0490> come <0935> unto them. 24 Therefore <03651> saith <05002> the Lord <0113>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the mighty <046> One of Israel <03478>, Ah <01945>, I will ease <05162> me of mine adversaries <06862>, and avenge <05358> me of mine enemies <0341>: 25 And I will turn <07725> my hand <03027> upon thee, and purely <01252> purge <06884> away thy dross <05509>, and take <05493> away <05493> all <03605> thy tin <0913>: 26 And I will restore <07725> thy judges <08199> as at the first <07223>, and thy counsellors <03289> as at the beginning <08462>: afterward thou shalt be called <07121>, The city <05892> of righteousness <06664>, the faithful <0539> city <07151>. 27 Zion <06726> shall be redeemed <06299> with judgment <04941>, and her converts <07725> with righteousness <06666>. 28 And the destruction <07667> of the transgressors <06586> and of the sinners <02400> [shall be] together <03162>, and they that forsake <05800> the LORD <03068> shall be consumed <03615>. 29 For they shall be ashamed <0954> of the oaks <0352> which <0834> ye have desired <02530>, and ye shall be confounded <02659> for the gardens <01593> that ye have chosen <0977>. 30 For ye shall be as an oak <0424> whose leaf <05929> fadeth <05034>, and as a garden <01593> that hath no <0369> water <04325>. 31 And the strong <02634> shall be as tow <05296>, and the maker <06467> of it as a spark <05213>, and they shall both <08147> burn <01197> together <03162>, and none <0369> shall quench <03518> [them]. Isaiah 2 1. The word <01697> that Isaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531> saw <02372> concerning <05921> Judah <03063> and Jerusalem <03389>. 2 And it shall come <01961> to pass in the last <0319> days <03117>, [that] the mountain <02022> of the LORD'S <03068> house <01004> shall be established <03559> in the top <07218> of the mountains <02022>, and shall be exalted <05375> above the hills <01389>; and all <03605> nations <01471> shall flow <05102> unto it. 3 And many <07227> people <05971> shall go <01980> and say <0559>, Come <03212> ye, and let us go <05927> up to the mountain <02022> of the LORD <03068>, to the house <01004> of the God <0430> of Jacob <03290>; and he will teach <03384> us of his ways <01870>, and we will walk <03212> in his paths <0734>: for out of Zion <06726> shall go <03318> forth <03318> the law <08451>, and the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> from Jerusalem <03389>. 4 And he shall judge <08199> among <0996> the nations <01471>, and shall rebuke <03198> many <07227> people <05971>: and they shall beat <03807> their swords <02719> into plowshares <0855>, and their spears <02595> into pruninghooks <04211>: nation <01471> shall not lift <05375> up sword <02719> against <0413> nation <01471>, neither <03808> shall they learn <03925> war <04421> any more <05750>. 5 O house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, come <03212> ye, and let us walk <03212> in the light <0216> of the LORD <03068>. 6. Therefore thou hast forsaken <05203> thy people <05971> the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, because <03588> they be replenished <04390> from the east <06924>, and [are] soothsayers <06049> like the Philistines <06430>, and they please <05606> themselves in the children <03206> of strangers <05237>. 7 Their land <0776> also is full <04390> of silver <03701> and gold <02091>, neither <03808> [is there any] end <07097> of their treasures <0214>; their land <0776> is also full <04390> of horses <05483>, neither <03808> [is there any] end <07097> of their chariots <04818>: 8 Their land <0776> also is full <04390> of idols <0457>; they worship <07812> the work <04639> of their own hands <03027>, that which <0834> their own fingers <0676> have made <06213>: 9 And the mean <0120> man <01201> boweth <07817> down <07817>, and the great man <0376> humbleth <08213> himself: therefore forgive <05375> them not. 10. Enter <0935> into the rock <06697>, and hide <02934> thee in the dust <06083>, for fear <06343> of the LORD <03068>, and for the glory <01926> of his majesty <01347>. 11 The lofty <01365> looks <05869> of man <0120> shall be humbled <08213>, and the haughtiness <07312> of men <0582> shall be bowed <07817> down <07817>, and the LORD <03068> alone <0905> shall be exalted <07682> in that day <03117>. 12 For the day <03117> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [shall be] upon every <03605> [one that is] proud <01343> and lofty <07311>, and upon every <03605> [one that is] lifted <05375> up; and he shall be brought <08213> low <08213>: 13 And upon all <03605> the cedars <0730> of Lebanon <03844>, [that are] high <07311> and lifted <05375> up, and upon all <03605> the oaks <0437> of Bashan <01316>, 14 And upon all <03605> the high <07311> mountains <02022>, and upon all <03605> the hills <01389> [that are] lifted <05375> up, 15 And upon every <03605> high <01364> tower <04026>, and upon every <03605> fenced <01219> wall <02346>, 16 And upon all <03605> the ships <0591> of Tarshish <08659>, and upon all <03605> pleasant <02532> pictures <07914>. 17 And the loftiness <01365> of man <0120> shall be bowed <07817> down <07817>, and the haughtiness <07312> of men <0582> shall be made low <08213>: and the LORD <03068> alone <0905> shall be exalted <07682> in that day <03117>. 18 And the idols <0457> he shall utterly <03632> abolish <02498>. 19 And they shall go <0935> into the holes <04631> of the rocks <06697>, and into the caves <04247> of the earth <06083>, for fear <06343> of the LORD <03068>, and for the glory <01926> of his majesty <01347>, when he ariseth <06965> to shake <06206> terribly <06206> the earth <0776>. 20 In that day <03117> a man <0120> shall cast <07993> his idols <0457> of silver <03701>, and his idols <0457> of gold <02091>, which <0834> they made [each one] for himself to worship <07812>, to the moles <02661> and to the bats <05847>; 21 To go <0935> into the clefts <05366> of the rocks <06697>, and into the tops <05585> of the ragged rocks <05553>, for fear <06343> of the LORD <03068>, and for the glory <01926> of his majesty <01347>, when he ariseth <06965> to shake <06206> terribly <06206> the earth <0776>. 22 Cease <02308> ye from man <0120>, whose <0834> breath <05397> [is] in his nostrils <0639>: for wherein <04100> is he to be accounted <02803> of? Isaiah 3 1. For, behold <02009>, the Lord <0113>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, doth take <05493> away <05493> from Jerusalem <03389> and from Judah <03063> the stay <04937> and the staff <04938>, the whole <03605> stay <08172> of bread <03899>, and the whole <03605> stay <04937> of water <04325>, 2 The mighty <01368> man, and the man <0376> of war <04421>, the judge <08199>, and the prophet <05030>, and the prudent <07080>, and the ancient <02204>, 3 The captain <08269> of fifty <02572>, and the honourable man, and the counsellor <03289>, and the cunning <02450> artificer <02796>, and the eloquent <0995> orator <03908>. 4 And I will give <05414> children <05288> [to be] their princes <08269>, and babes <08586> shall rule <04910> over them. 5 And the people <05971> shall be oppressed <05065>, every <0376> one <0376> by another, and every <0376> one <0376> by his neighbour <07453>: the child <05288> shall behave <07292> himself proudly <07292> against the ancient <02204>, and the base <07034> against the honourable <03519>. 6 When <03588> a man <0376> shall take <08610> hold <08610> of his brother <0251> of the house <01004> of his father <01>, [saying], Thou hast clothing <08071>, be thou our ruler <07101>, and [let] this <02063> ruin <04384> [be] under <08478> thy hand <03027>: 7 In that day <03117> shall he swear <05375>, saying <0559>, I will not be an healer <02280>; for in my house <01004> [is] neither <0369> bread <03899> nor <0369> clothing <08071>: make <07760> me not a ruler <07101> of the people <05971>. 8 For Jerusalem <03389> is ruined <03782>, and Judah <03063> is fallen <05307>: because <03588> their tongue <03956> and their doings <04611> [are] against <0413> the LORD <03068>, to provoke <04784> the eyes <05869> of his glory <03519>. 9. The shew <01971> of their countenance <06440> doth witness <05707> against them; and they declare <05046> their sin <02403> as Sodom <05467>, they hide <03582> [it] not. Woe <0188> unto their soul <05315>! for they have rewarded <01580> evil <07451> unto themselves <01992>. 10 Say <0559> ye to the righteous <06662>, that [it shall be] well <02896> [with him]: for they shall eat <0398> the fruit <06529> of their doings <04611>. 11 Woe <0188> unto the wicked <07563>! [it shall be] ill <07451> [with him]: for the reward <01576> of his hands <03027> shall be given <06213> him. 12 [As for] my people <05971>, children <05768> [are] their oppressors <05065>, and women <0802> rule <04910> over them. O my people <05971>, they which lead <0833> thee cause [thee] to err <08582>, and destroy <01104> the way <01870> of thy paths <0734>. 13 The LORD <03068> standeth <05324> up to plead <07378>, and standeth <05975> to judge <01777> the people <05971>. 14 The LORD <03068> will enter <0935> into judgment <04941> with the ancients <02204> of his people <05971>, and the princes <08269> thereof: for ye have eaten <0398> up the vineyard <03754>; the spoil <01500> of the poor <06041> [is] in your houses <01004>. 15 What <04100> mean ye [that] ye beat <01792> my people <05971> to pieces, and grind <02912> the faces <06440> of the poor <06041>? saith <05002> the Lord <03068> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635>. 16. Moreover the LORD <03068> saith <0559>, Because the daughters <01121> of Zion <06726> are haughty <01361>, and walk <03212> with stretched <05186> forth necks <01627> and wanton <08265> eyes <05869>, walking <01980> and mincing <02952> [as] they go <03212>, and making a tinkling <05913> with their feet <07272>: 17 Therefore the Lord <0136> will smite <05596> with a scab <05597> the crown <06936> of the head <06936> of the daughters <01121> of Zion <06726>, and the LORD <03068> will discover <06168> their secret <06596> parts. 18 In that day <03117> the Lord <0136> will take <05493> away <05493> the bravery <08597> of [their] tinkling ornaments <05914> [about their feet], and [their] cauls <07636>, and [their] round <07720> tires <07720> like the moon, 19 The chains <05188>, and the bracelets <08285>, and the mufflers <07479>, 20 The bonnets <06287>, and the ornaments <06807> of the legs <06807>, and the headbands <07196>, and the tablets, and the earrings <03908>, 21 The rings <02885>, and nose <0639> jewels <05141>, 22 The changeable <04254> suits of apparel <04254>, and the mantles <04595>, and the wimples <04304>, and the crisping <02754> pins, 23 The glasses <01549>, and the fine linen <05466>, and the hoods <06797>, and the vails <07289>. 24 And it shall come <01961> to pass, [that] instead <08478> of sweet <01314> smell <01314> there shall be stink <04716>; and instead <08478> of a girdle <02290> a rent <05364>; and instead <08478> of well <04639> set hair <04748> baldness <07144>; and instead <08478> of a stomacher <06614> a girding <04228> of sackcloth <08242>; [and] burning <03587> instead <08478> of beauty <03308>. 25 Thy men <04962> shall fall <05307> by the sword <02719>, and thy mighty <01369> in the war <04421>. 26 And her gates <06607> shall lament <0578> and mourn <056>; and she [being] desolate <05352> shall sit <03427> upon the ground <0776>. Isaiah 4 1. And in that day <03117> seven <07651> women <0802> shall take <02388> hold <02388> of one <0259> man <0376>, saying <0559>, We will eat <0398> our own bread <03899>, and wear <03847> our own apparel <08071>: only <07535> let us be called <07121> by thy name <08034>, to take <0622> away our reproach <02781>. 2. In that day <03117> shall the branch <06780> of the LORD <03068> be beautiful <06643> and glorious <03519>, and the fruit <06529> of the earth <0776> [shall be] excellent <01347> and comely <08597> for them that are escaped <06413> of Israel <03478>. 3 And it shall come <01961> to pass, [that he that is] left <07604> in Zion <06726>, and [he that] remaineth <03498> in Jerusalem <03389>, shall be called <0559> holy <06918>, [even] every <03605> one that is written <03789> among the living <02416> in Jerusalem <03389>: 4 When <0518> the Lord <0136> shall have washed <07364> away the filth <06675> of the daughters <01121> of Zion <06726>, and shall have purged <01740> the blood <01818> of Jerusalem <03389> from the midst <07130> thereof by the spirit <07307> of judgment <04941>, and by the spirit <07307> of burning <01197>. 5 And the LORD <03068> will create <01254> upon every <03605> dwelling <04349> place of mount <02022> Zion <06726>, and upon her assemblies <04744>, a cloud <06051> and smoke <06227> by day <03119>, and the shining <05051> of a flaming <03852> fire <0784> by night <03915>: for upon all <03605> the glory <03519> [shall be] a defence <02646>. 6 And there shall be a tabernacle <05521> for a shadow <06738> in the daytime <03119> from the heat <02721>, and for a place of refuge <04268>, and for a covert <04563> from storm <02230> and from rain <04306>. Isaiah 5 1. Now <04994> will I sing <07891> to my wellbeloved <03039> a song <07892> of my beloved <01730> touching his vineyard <03754>. My wellbeloved <03039> hath a vineyard <03754> in a very fruitful hill <07161>: 2 And he fenced <05823> it, and gathered out the stones <05619> thereof, and planted <05193> it with the choicest <08321> vine <08321>, and built <01129> a tower <04026> in the midst <08432> of it, and also <01571> made <02672> a winepress <03342> therein <08432>: and he looked <06960> that it should bring <06213> forth <06213> grapes <06025>, and it brought <06213> forth <06213> wild <0891> grapes <0891>. 3 And now <06258>, O inhabitants <03427> of Jerusalem <03389>, and men <0376> of Judah <03063>, judge <08199>, I pray <04994> you, betwixt <0996> me and my vineyard <03754>. 4 What <04100> could have been done <06466> more <05750> to my vineyard <03754>, that I have not done <06466> in it? wherefore <04069>, when I looked <06960> that it should bring <06213> forth <06213> grapes <06025>, brought <06213> it forth <06213> wild <0891> grapes <0891>? 5 And now <06258> go to; I will tell <03045> you what I will do <06213> to my vineyard <03754>: I will take <05493> away <05493> the hedge <04881> thereof, and it shall be eaten <0398> up; [and] break <06555> down the wall <01447> thereof, and it shall be trodden <04823> down: 6 And I will lay it waste <01326>: it shall not be pruned <02167>, nor <03808> digged <05737>; but there shall come <05927> up briers <08068> and thorns <07898>: I will also command <06680> the clouds <05645> that they rain <04305> no rain <04306> upon it. 7 For the vineyard <03754> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [is] the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, and the men <0376> of Judah <03063> his pleasant <08191> plant <05194>: and he looked <06970> for judgment <04941>, but behold <02009> oppression <04939>; for righteousness <06666>, but behold <02009> a cry <06818>. 8. Woe <01945> unto them that join <05060> house <01004> to house <01004>, [that] lay <07126> field <07704> to field <07704>, till <05704> [there be] no <0675> place <04725>, that they may be placed <03427> alone <0905> in the midst <07130> of the earth <0776>! 9 In mine ears <0241> [said] the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, Of a truth many <07227> houses <01004> shall be desolate <08047>, [even] great <01419> and fair <02896>, without <0369> inhabitant <03427>. 10 Yea <03588>, ten <06235> acres <06776> of vineyard <03754> shall yield <06213> one <0259> bath <01324>, and the seed <02233> of an homer <02563> shall yield <06213> an ephah <0374>. 11 Woe <01945> unto them that rise <07925> up early <07925> in the morning <01242>, [that] they may follow <07291> strong drink <07941>; that continue <0309> until night <05399>, [till] wine <03196> inflame <01814> them! 12 And the harp <03658>, and the viol <05035>, the tabret <08596>, and pipe <02485>, and wine <03196>, are in their feasts <04960>: but they regard <05027> not the work <06467> of the LORD <03068>, neither <03808> consider <07200> the operation <04639> of his hands <03027>. 13 Therefore <03651> my people <05971> are gone into captivity <01540>, because [they have] no <01097> knowledge <01847>: and their honourable <03519> men <04962> [are] famished <07458>, and their multitude <01995> dried <06704> up with thirst <06772>. 14 Therefore <03651> hell <07585> hath enlarged <07337> herself <05315>, and opened <06473> her mouth <06310> without <01097> measure <02706>: and their glory <01926>, and their multitude <01995>, and their pomp <07588>, and he that rejoiceth <05937>, shall descend <03381> into it. 15 And the mean <0120> man <0120> shall be brought <07817> down <07817>, and the mighty <0376> man <0376> shall be humbled <08213>, and the eyes <05869> of the lofty <01364> shall be humbled <08213>: 16 But the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> shall be exalted <01361> in judgment <04941>, and God <0410> that is holy <06918> shall be sanctified <06942> in righteousness <06666>. 17 Then shall the lambs <03532> feed <07462> after their manner <01699>, and the waste <02723> places of the fat <04220> ones shall strangers <01481> eat <0398>. 18. Woe <01945> unto them that draw <04900> iniquity <05771> with cords <02256> of vanity <07723>, and sin <02402> as it were with a cart <05699> rope <05688>: 19 That say <0559>, Let him make speed <04116>, [and] hasten <02363> his work <04639>, that we may see <07200> [it]: and let the counsel <06098> of the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478> draw nigh <07126> and come <0935>, that we may know <03045> [it]! 20 Woe <01945> unto them that call <0559> evil <07451> good <02896>, and good <02896> evil <07451>; that put <07760> darkness <02822> for light <0216>, and light <0216> for darkness <02822>; that put <07760> bitter <04751> for sweet <04966>, and sweet <04966> for bitter <04751>! 21 Woe <01945> unto [them that are] wise <02450> in their own eyes <05869>, and prudent <0995> in their own sight <06440>! 22 Woe <01945> unto [them that are] mighty <01368> to drink <08354> wine <03196>, and men <0582> of strength <02428> to mingle <04537> strong drink <07941>: 23 Which justify <06663> the wicked <07563> for reward <07810>, and take <05493> away <05493> the righteousness <06666> of the righteous <06662> from him! 24 Therefore <03651> as the fire <0784> devoureth <0398> the stubble <07179>, and the flame <03852> consumeth <07503> the chaff <02842>, [so] their root <08328> shall be as rottenness <04716>, and their blossom <06525> shall go <05927> up as dust <080>: because <03588> they have cast <03988> away the law <08451> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, and despised <05006> the word <0565> of the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 25 Therefore is the anger <0639> of the LORD <03068> kindled <02734> against his people <05971>, and he hath stretched <05186> forth his hand <03027> against <05921> them, and hath smitten <05221> them: and the hills <02022> did tremble <07264>, and their carcases <05038> [were] torn <05478> in the midst <07130> of the streets <02351>. For all <03605> this <02063> his anger <0639> is not turned <07725> away, but his hand <03027> [is] stretched <05186> out still <05750>. 26 And he will lift <05375> up an ensign <05251> to the nations <01471> from far <07350>, and will hiss <08319> unto them from the end <07097> of the earth <0776>: and, behold <02009>, they shall come <0935> with speed <04120> swiftly <07031>: 27 None <0369> shall be weary <05889> nor <03808> stumble <03782> among them; none <03808> shall slumber <05123> nor <03808> sleep <03463>; neither <03808> shall the girdle <0232> of their loins <02504> be loosed <06605>, nor <03808> the latchet <08288> of their shoes <05275> be broken <05423>: 28 Whose <0834> arrows <02671> [are] sharp <08150>, and all <03605> their bows <07198> bent <01869>, their horses <05483>' hoofs <06541> shall be counted <02803> like flint <06864>, and their wheels <01534> like a whirlwind: 29 Their roaring <07581> [shall be] like a lion <03833>, they shall roar <07580> like young <03715> lions <03715>: yea, they shall roar <05098>, and lay hold <0270> of the prey <02964>, and shall carry <06403> [it] away safe <06403>, and none <0369> shall deliver <05337> [it]. 30 And in that day <03117> they shall roar <05098> against <05921> them like the roaring <05100> of the sea <03220>: and if [one] look <05027> unto the land <0776>, behold <02009> darkness <02822> [and] sorrow <06862>, and the light <0216> is darkened <02821> in the heavens <06183> thereof. Isaiah 6 1. In the year <08141> that king <04428> Uzziah <05818> died <04194> I saw <07200> also the Lord <0136> sitting <03427> upon a throne <03678>, high <07311> and lifted <05375> up, and his train <07757> filled <04390> the temple <01964>. 2 Above <04605> it stood <05975> the seraphims <08314>: each <0259> one <0259> had six <08337> wings <03671>; with twain <08147> he covered <03680> his face <06440>, and with twain <08147> he covered <03680> his feet <07272>, and with twain <08147> he did fly <05774>. 3 And one cried <07121> unto another <02088>, and said <0559>, Holy <06918>, holy <06918>, holy <06918>, [is] the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>: the whole <03605> earth <0776> [is] full <04393> of his glory <03519>. 4 And the posts <0520> of the door <05592> moved <05128> at the voice <06963> of him that cried <07121>, and the house <01004> was filled <04390> with smoke <06227>. 5. Then said <0559> I, Woe <0188> [is] me! for I am undone <01820>; because <03588> I [am] a man <0376> of unclean <02931> lips <08193>, and I dwell <03427> in the midst <08432> of a people <05971> of unclean <02931> lips <08193>: for mine eyes <05869> have seen <07200> the King <04428>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. 6 Then flew <05774> one <0259> of the seraphims <08314> unto me, having a live <07531> coal <07531> in his hand <03027>, [which] he had taken <03947> with the tongs <04457> from off <05921> the altar <04196>: 7 And he laid <05060> [it] upon my mouth <06310>, and said <0559>, Lo <02009>, this <02088> hath touched <05060> thy lips <08193>; and thine iniquity <05771> is taken <05493> away <05493>, and thy sin <02403> purged <03722>. 8 Also I heard <08085> the voice <06963> of the Lord <0136>, saying <0559>, Whom shall I send <07971>, and who <04310> will go <03212> for us? Then said <0559> I, Here <02005> [am] I; send <07971> me. 9. And he said <0559>, Go <03212>, and tell <0559> this <02088> people <05971>, Hear <08085> ye indeed, but understand <0995> not; and see <07200> ye indeed, but perceive <03045> not. 10 Make the heart <03820> of this <02088> people <05971> fat <08082>, and make their ears <0241> heavy <03513>, and shut <08173> their eyes <05869>; lest <06435> they see <07200> with their eyes <05869>, and hear <08085> with their ears <0241>, and understand <0995> with their heart <03824>, and convert <07725>, and be healed <07495>. 11 Then said <0559> I, Lord <0136>, how <05704> long <05704>? And he answered <0559>, Until <05704> the cities <05892> be wasted <07582> without <0369> inhabitant <03427>, and the houses <01004> without <0369> man <0120>, and the land <0127> be utterly desolate <08077>, 12 And the LORD <03068> have removed <07368> men <0120> far <07368> away, and [there be] a great <07227> forsaking <05805> in the midst <07130> of the land <0776>. 13 But yet <05750> in it [shall be] a tenth <06224>, and [it] shall return <07725>, and shall be eaten <01197>: as a teil <0424> tree, and as an oak <0437>, whose <0834> substance <04678> [is] in them, when <0834> they cast <07995> [their leaves: so] the holy <06944> seed <02233> [shall be] the substance <04678> thereof. Isaiah 7 1. And it came <01961> to pass in the days <03117> of Ahaz <0271> the son <01121> of Jotham <03147>, the son <01121> of Uzziah <05818>, king <04428> of Judah <03063>, [that] Rezin the king <04428> of Syria <0758>, and Pekah <06492> the son <01121> of Remaliah <07425>, king <04428> of Israel <03478>, went <05927> up toward Jerusalem <03389> to war <04421> against <05921> it, but could <03201> not prevail <03898> against <05921> it. 2 And it was told <05046> the house <01004> of David <01732>, saying <0559>, Syria <0758> is confederate <05117> with Ephraim <0669>. And his heart <03824> was moved <05128>, and the heart <03824> of his people <05971>, as the trees <06086> of the wood <03293> are moved <05128> with the wind <07307>. 3 Then said <0559> the LORD <03068> unto Isaiah <03470>, Go <03318> forth <03318> now <04994> to meet <07125> Ahaz <0271>, thou, and Shearjashub <07610> thy son <01121>, at <0413> the end <07097> of the conduit <08585> of the upper <05945> pool <01295> in the highway <04546> of the fuller's <03526> field <07704>; 4 And say <0559> unto him, Take heed <08104>, and be quiet <08252>; fear <03372> not, neither <0408> be fainthearted <03824> for the two <08147> tails <02180> of these <0428> smoking <06226> firebrands <0181>, for the fierce <02750> anger <0639> of Rezin <07526> with Syria <0758>, and of the son <01121> of Remaliah <07425>. 5 Because Syria <0758>, Ephraim <0669>, and the son <01121> of Remaliah <07425>, have taken evil <07451> counsel <03289> against <05921> thee, saying <0559>, 6 Let us go <05927> up against Judah <03063>, and vex <06972> it, and let us make a breach <01234> therein for us, and set a king <04428> in the midst <08432> of it, [even] the son <01121> of Tabeal <02870>: 7 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, It shall not stand <06965>, neither <03808> shall it come <01961> to pass. 8 For the head <07218> of Syria <0758> [is] Damascus <01834>, and the head <07218> of Damascus <01834> [is] Rezin <07526>; and within threescore <07657> and five <02568> years <08141> shall Ephraim <0669> be broken <02844>, that it be not a people <05971>. 9 And the head <07218> of Ephraim <0669> [is] Samaria <08111>, and the head <07218> of Samaria <08111> [is] Remaliah's <07425> son <01121>. If <0518> ye will not believe <0539>, surely <03588> ye shall not be established <0539>. 10. Moreover the LORD <03068> spake <01696> again <03254> unto Ahaz <0271>, saying <0559>, 11 Ask <07592> thee a sign <0226> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>; ask <07592> it either in the depth <06009>, or <0176> in the height <01361> above <04605>. 12 But Ahaz <0271> said <0559>, I will not ask <07592>, neither <03808> will I tempt <05254> the LORD <03068>. 13 And he said <0559>, Hear <08085> ye now <04994>, O house <01004> of David <01732>; [Is it] a small <04592> thing for you to weary <03811> men <0582>, but will ye weary <03811> my God <0430> also <01571>? 14 Therefore <03651> the Lord <0136> himself <01931> shall give <05414> you a sign <0226>; Behold <02009>, a virgin <05959> shall conceive <02030>, and bear <03205> a son <01121>, and shall call <07121> his name <08034> Immanuel <06005>. 15 Butter <02529> and honey <01706> shall he eat <0398>, that he may know <03045> to refuse <03988> the evil <07451>, and choose <0977> the good <02896>. 16 For before <02962> the child <05288> shall know <03045> to refuse <03988> the evil <07451>, and choose <0977> the good <02896>, the land <0127> that thou abhorrest <06973> shall be forsaken <05800> of both <08147> her kings <04428>. 17. The LORD <03068> shall bring <0935> upon thee, and upon thy people <05971>, and upon thy father's <01> house <01004>, days <03117> that have not come <0935>, from the day <03117> that Ephraim <0669> departed <05493> from Judah <03063>; [even <0853>] the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>. 18 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] the LORD <03068> shall hiss <08319> for the fly <02070> that [is] in the uttermost <07097> part of the rivers <02975> of Egypt <04714>, and for the bee <01682> that [is] in the land <0776> of Assyria <0804>. 19 And they shall come <0935>, and shall rest <05117> all <03605> of them in the desolate <01327> valleys <05158>, and in the holes <05357> of the rocks <05553>, and upon all <03605> thorns <05285>, and upon all <03605> bushes <05097>. 20 In the same <01931> day <03117> shall the Lord <0136> shave <01548> with a razor <08593> that is hired <07917>, [namely], by them beyond <05676> the river <05104>, by the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, the head <07218>, and the hair <08181> of the feet <07272>: and it shall also <01571> consume <05595> the beard <02206>. 21 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] a man <0376> shall nourish <02421> a young <01241> cow <05697>, and two <08147> sheep <06629>; 22 And it shall come <01961> to pass, for the abundance <07230> of milk <02461> [that] they shall give <06213> he shall eat <0398> butter <02529>: for butter <02529> and honey <01706> shall every <03605> one eat <0398> that is left <03498> in the land <0776>. 23 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] every <03605> place <04725> shall be, where <0834> there were a thousand <0505> vines <01612> at a thousand <0505> silverlings <03701>, it shall [even] be for briers <08068> and thorns <07898>. 24 With arrows <02671> and with bows <07198> shall [men] come <0935> thither <08033>; because <03588> all <03605> the land <0776> shall become <01961> briers <08068> and thorns <07898>. 25 And [on] all <03605> hills <02022> that shall be digged <05737> with the mattock <04576>, there shall not come <0935> thither <08033> the fear <03374> of briers <08068> and thorns <07898>: but it shall be for the sending <04916> forth of oxen <07794>, and for the treading <04823> of lesser <07716> cattle <07716>. Isaiah 8 1. Moreover the LORD <03068> said <0559> unto me, Take <03947> thee a great <01419> roll <01549>, and write <03789> in it with a man's <0582> pen <02747> concerning Mahershalalhashbaz <04122>. 2 And I took unto me faithful <0539> witnesses <05707> to record <05749>, Uriah <0223> the priest <03548>, and Zechariah <02148> the son <01121> of Jeberechiah <03000>. 3 And I went <07126> unto the prophetess <05031>; and she conceived <02030>, and bare <03205> a son <01121>. Then said <0559> the LORD <03068> to me, Call <07121> his name <08034> Mahershalalhashbaz <04122>. 4 For before <02962> the child <05288> shall have knowledge <03045> to cry <07121>, My father <01>, and my mother <0517>, the riches <02428> of Damascus <01834> and the spoil <07998> of Samaria <08111> shall be taken <05375> away before <06440> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>. 5 The LORD <03068> spake <01696> also unto me again <03254>, saying <0559>, 6 Forasmuch as this <02088> people <05971> refuseth <03988> the waters <04325> of Shiloah <07975> that go <01980> softly <0328>, and rejoice <04885> in Rezin <07526> and Remaliah's <07425> son <01121>; 7 Now therefore <03651>, behold <02009>, the Lord <0136> bringeth <05927> up upon them the waters <04325> of the river <05104>, strong <06099> and many <07227>, [even <0853>] the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, and all <03605> his glory <03519>: and he shall come <05927> up over <05921> all <03605> his channels <0650>, and go <01980> over <05921> all <03605> his banks <01415>: 8 And he shall pass <02498> through Judah <03063>; he shall overflow <07857> and go <05674> over <05674>, he shall reach <05060> [even] to the neck <06677>; and the stretching <04298> out of his wings <03671> shall fill <04393> the breadth <07341> of thy land <0776>, O Immanuel <06005>. 9. Associate <07489> yourselves, O ye people <05971>, and ye shall be broken <02844> in pieces; and give ear <0238>, all <03605> ye of far <04801> countries <0776>: gird <0247> yourselves, and ye shall be broken <02844> in pieces; gird <0247> yourselves, and ye shall be broken <02844> in pieces. 10 Take counsel <06098> together, and it shall come to nought <06565>; speak <01696> the word <01697>, and it shall not stand <06965>: for God <0410> [is] with us. 11 For the LORD <03068> spake <0559> thus <03541> to me with a strong <02393> hand <03027>, and instructed <03256> me that I should not walk <03212> in the way <01870> of this <02088> people <05971>, saying <0559>, 12 Say <0559> ye not, A confederacy <07195>, to all <03605> [them to] whom <0834> this <02088> people <05971> shall say <0559>, A confederacy <07195>; neither <03808> fear <03372> ye their fear <04172>, nor <03808> be afraid <06206>. 13 Sanctify <06942> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> himself; and [let] him [be] your fear <04172>, and [let] him [be] your dread <06206>. 14 And he shall be for a sanctuary <04720>; but for a stone <068> of stumbling <05063> and for a rock <06697> of offence <04383> to both <08147> the houses <01004> of Israel <03478>, for a gin <06341> and for a snare <04170> to the inhabitants <03427> of Jerusalem <03389>. 15 And many <07227> among them shall stumble <03782>, and fall <05307>, and be broken <07665>, and be snared <03369>, and be taken <03920>. 16. Bind <06887> up the testimony <08584>, seal <02856> the law <08451> among my disciples <03928>. 17 And I will wait <02442> upon the LORD <03068>, that hideth <05641> his face <06440> from the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, and I will look <06960> for him. 18 Behold <02009>, I and the children <03206> whom <0834> the LORD <03068> hath given <05414> me [are] for signs <0226> and for wonders <04159> in Israel <03478> from the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, which dwelleth <07931> in mount <02022> Zion <06726>. 19 And when <03588> they shall say <0559> unto you, Seek <01875> unto them that have familiar spirits <0178>, and unto wizards <03049> that peep <06850>, and that mutter <01897>: should not a people <05971> seek <01875> unto their God <0430>? for the living <02416> to the dead <04191>? 20 To the law <08451> and to the testimony <08584>: if <0518> they speak <0559> not according to this <02088> word <01697>, [it is] because <0834> [there is] no <0369> light <07837> in them. 21 And they shall pass <05674> through it, hardly <07185> bestead and hungry <07456>: and it shall come <01961> to pass, that when <03588> they shall be hungry <07456>, they shall fret <07107> themselves, and curse <07043> their king <04428> and their God <0430>, and look <06437> upward <04605>. 22 And they shall look <05027> unto the earth <0776>; and behold <02009> trouble <06869> and darkness <02825>, dimness <04588> of anguish <06695>; and [they shall be] driven <05080> to darkness <0653>. Isaiah 9 1. Nevertheless <03588> the dimness <04155> [shall] not [be] such as [was] in her vexation <04164>, when <06256> at the first <07223> he lightly <07043> afflicted <07043> the land <0776> of Zebulun <02074> and the land <0776> of Naphtali <05321>, and afterward <0314> did more grievously <03513> afflict <03513> [her by] the way <01870> of the sea <03220>, beyond <05676> Jordan <03383>, in Galilee <01551> of the nations <01471>. 2 The people <05971> that walked <01980> in darkness <02822> have seen <07200> a great <01419> light <0216>: they that dwell <03427> in the land <0776> of the shadow <06757> of death <06757>, upon them hath the light <0216> shined <05050>. 3 Thou hast multiplied <07235> the nation <01471>, [and] not increased <01431> the joy <08057>: they joy <08055> before <06440> thee according to the joy <08055> in harvest <07105>, [and] as [men] rejoice <01523> when they divide <02505> the spoil <07998>. 4 For thou hast broken <02865> the yoke <05923> of his burden <05448>, and the staff <04294> of his shoulder <07926>, the rod <07626> of his oppressor <05065>, as in the day <03117> of Midian <04080>. 5 For every <03605> battle <05430> of the warrior <05431> [is] with confused <07494> noise, and garments <08071> rolled <01556> in blood <01818>; but [this] shall be with burning <08316> [and] fuel <03980> of fire <0784>. 6 For unto us a child <03206> is born <03205>, unto us a son <01121> is given <05414>: and the government <04951> shall be upon his shoulder <07926>: and his name <08034> shall be called <07121> Wonderful <06382>, Counsellor <03289>, The mighty <01368> God <0410>, The everlasting <05703> Father <01>, The Prince <08269> of Peace <07965>. 7 Of the increase <04768> of [his] government <04951> and peace <07965> [there shall be] no <0369> end <07093>, upon the throne <03678> of David <01732>, and upon his kingdom <04467>, to order <03559> it, and to establish <05582> it with judgment <04941> and with justice <06666> from henceforth <06258> even for ever <05769>. The zeal <07068> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> will perform <06213> this <02063>. 8. The Lord <03068> sent <07971> a word <01697> into Jacob <03290>, and it hath lighted <05307> upon Israel <03478>. 9 And all <03605> the people <05971> shall know <03045>, [even] Ephraim <0669> and the inhabitant <03427> of Samaria <08111>, that say <0559> in the pride <01346> and stoutness <01433> of heart <03824>, 10 The bricks <03843> are fallen <05307> down, but we will build <01129> with hewn <01496> stones <01496>: the sycomores <08256> are cut <01438> down <01438>, but we will change <02498> [them into] cedars <0730>. 11 Therefore the LORD <03068> shall set <07682> up the adversaries <06862> of Rezin <07526> against <05921> him, and join <05526> his enemies <0341> together; 12 The Syrians <0758> before <06924>, and the Philistines <06430> behind <0268>; and they shall devour <0398> Israel <03478> with open <06605> mouth <06310>. For all <03605> this <02063> his anger <0639> is not turned <07725> away, but his hand <03027> [is] stretched <05186> out still <05750>. 13 For the people <05971> turneth <07725> not unto him that smiteth <05221> them, neither <03808> do they seek <01875> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. 14 Therefore the LORD <03068> will cut <03772> off from Israel <03478> head <07218> and tail <02180>, branch <03712> and rush <0100>, in one <0259> day <03117>. 15 The ancient <02204> and honourable, he [is] the head <07218>; and the prophet <05030> that teacheth <03384> lies <08267>, he [is] the tail <02180>. 16 For the leaders <0833> of this <02088> people <05971> cause [them] to err <08582>; and [they that are] led <0833> of them [are] destroyed <01104>. 17 Therefore the Lord <0136> shall have no <03808> joy <08055> in their young <0970> men, neither <03808> shall have mercy <07355> on their fatherless <03490> and widows <0490>: for every <03605> one [is] an hypocrite <02611> and an evildoer <07489>, and every <03605> mouth <06310> speaketh <01696> folly <05039>. For all <03605> this <02063> his anger <0639> is not turned <07725> away, but his hand <03027> [is] stretched <05186> out still <05750>. 18 For wickedness <07564> burneth <01197> as the fire <0784>: it shall devour <0398> the briers <08068> and thorns <07898>, and shall kindle <03341> in the thickets <05442> of the forest <03293>, and they shall mount <055> up [like] the lifting <01348> up of smoke <06227>. 19 Through the wrath <05678> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> is the land <0776> darkened <06272>, and the people <05971> shall be as the fuel <03980> of the fire <0784>: no <03808> man <0376> shall spare <02550> his brother <0251>. 20 And he shall snatch <01504> on <05921> the right <03225> hand <03225>, and be hungry <07456>; and he shall eat <0398> on <05921> the left <08040> hand <08040>, and they shall not be satisfied <07646>: they shall eat <0398> every man <0376> the flesh <01320> of his own arm <02220>: 21 Manasseh <04519>, Ephraim <0669>; and Ephraim <0669>, Manasseh <04519>: [and] they together <03162> [shall be] against <05921> Judah <03063>. For all <03605> this <02063> his anger <0639> is not turned <07725> away, but his hand <03027> [is] stretched <05186> out still <05750>. Isaiah 10 1. Woe <01945> unto them that decree <02710> unrighteous <0205> decrees <02711>, and that write <03789> grievousness <05999> [which] they have prescribed <03789>; 2 To turn <05186> aside <05186> the needy <01800> from judgment <01779>, and to take <01497> away <01497> the right <04941> from the poor <06041> of my people <05971>, that widows <0490> may be their prey <07998>, and [that] they may rob <0962> the fatherless <03490>! 3 And what <04100> will ye do <06213> in the day <03117> of visitation <06486>, and in the desolation <07722> [which] shall come <0935> from far <04801>? to whom <04310> will ye flee <05127> for help <05833>? and where <0575> will ye leave <05800> your glory <03519>? 4 Without <01115> me they shall bow <03766> down <03766> under <08478> the prisoners <0616>, and they shall fall <05307> under <08478> the slain <02026>. For all <03605> this <02063> his anger <0639> is not turned <07725> away, but his hand <03027> [is] stretched <05186> out still <05750>. 5. O Assyrian <0804>, the rod <07626> of mine anger <0639>, and the staff <04294> in their hand <03027> is mine indignation <02195>. 6 I will send <07971> him against an hypocritical <02611> nation <01471>, and against <05921> the people <05971> of my wrath <05678> will I give him a charge <06680>, to take <07997> the spoil <07998>, and to take <0962> the prey <0957>, and to tread <04823> them down like the mire <02563> of the streets <02351>. 7 Howbeit he meaneth <01819> not so <03651>, neither <03808> doth his heart <03824> think <02803> so <03651>; but [it is] in his heart <03824> to destroy <08045> and cut <03772> off nations <01471> not a few <04592>. 8 For he saith <0559>, [Are] not my princes <08269> altogether <03162> kings <04428>? 9 [Is] not Calno <03641> as Carchemish <03751>? [is] not Hamath <02574> as Arpad <0774>? [is] not Samaria <08111> as Damascus <01834>? 10 As my hand <03027> hath found <04672> the kingdoms <04467> of the idols <0457>, and whose graven <06456> images did excel them of Jerusalem <03389> and of Samaria <08111>; 11 Shall I not, as I have done <06466> unto Samaria <08111> and her idols <0457>, so <03651> do <06213> to Jerusalem <03389> and her idols <06091>? 12 Wherefore it shall come <01961> to pass, [that] when <03588> the Lord <0136> hath performed <01214> his whole work <04639> upon mount <02022> Zion <06726> and on Jerusalem <03389>, I will punish <06485> the fruit <06529> of the stout <01433> heart <03824> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, and the glory <08597> of his high <07312> looks <05869>. 13 For he saith <0559>, By the strength <03581> of my hand <03027> I have done <06466> [it], and by my wisdom <02451>; for I am prudent <0995>: and I have removed <05493> the bounds <01367> of the people <05971>, and have robbed <08154> their treasures <06259>, and I have put <03381> down <03381> the inhabitants <03427> like a valiant <03524> [man]: 14 And my hand <03027> hath found <04672> as a nest <07064> the riches <02428> of the people <05971>: and as one gathereth <0622> eggs <01000> [that are] left <05800>, have I gathered <0622> all <03605> the earth <0776>; and there was none <03808> that moved <05074> the wing <03671>, or opened <06473> the mouth <06310>, or peeped <06850>. 15 Shall the axe <01631> boast <06286> itself against <05921> him that heweth <02672> therewith? [or] shall the saw <04883> magnify <01431> itself against <05921> him that shaketh <05130> it? as if the rod <07626> should shake <05130> [itself] against them that lift <07311> it up, [or] as if the staff <04294> should lift <07311> up [itself, as if it were] no <03808> wood <06086>. 16 Therefore <03651> shall the Lord <0113>, the Lord <0136> of hosts <06635>, send <07971> among his fat <04924> ones leanness <07332>; and under <08478> his glory <03519> he shall kindle <03344> a burning <03350> like the burning <03345> of a fire <0784>. 17 And the light <0216> of Israel <03478> shall be for a fire <0784>, and his Holy <06918> One for a flame <03852>: and it shall burn <01197> and devour <0398> his thorns <07898> and his briers <08068> in one <0259> day <03117>; 18 And shall consume <03615> the glory <03519> of his forest <03293>, and of his fruitful <03759> field, both soul <05315> and body <01320>: and they shall be as when a standardbearer <05264> fainteth <04549>. 19 And the rest <07605> of the trees <06086> of his forest <03293> shall be few <04557>, that a child <05288> may write <03789> them. 20. And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] the remnant <07605> of Israel <03478>, and such as are escaped <06413> of the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, shall no <03808> more <05750> again <03254> stay <04937> upon him that smote <05221> them; but shall stay <08172> upon the LORD <03068>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, in truth <0571>. 21 The remnant <07605> shall return <07725>, [even] the remnant <07605> of Jacob <03290>, unto the mighty <01368> God <0410>. 22 For though <0518> thy people <05971> Israel <03478> be as the sand <02344> of the sea <03220>, [yet] a remnant <07605> of them shall return <07725>: the consumption <03631> decreed <02782> shall overflow <07857> with righteousness <06666>. 23 For the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635> shall make <06213> a consumption <03617>, even determined <02782>, in the midst <07130> of all <03605> the land <0776>. 24. Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635>, O my people <05971> that dwellest <03427> in Zion <06726>, be not afraid <03372> of the Assyrian <0804>: he shall smite <05221> thee with a rod <07626>, and shall lift <05375> up his staff <04294> against <05921> thee, after the manner <01870> of Egypt <04714>. 25 For yet <05750> a very <04213> little <04592> while, and the indignation <02195> shall cease <03615>, and mine anger <0639> in their destruction <08399>. 26 And the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> shall stir <05782> up a scourge <07752> for him according to the slaughter <04347> of Midian <04080> at the rock <06697> of Oreb <06157>: and [as] his rod <04294> [was] upon the sea <03220>, so shall he lift <05375> it up after the manner <01870> of Egypt <04714>. 27 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] his burden <05448> shall be taken <05493> away <05493> from off <05921> thy shoulder <07926>, and his yoke <05923> from off <05921> thy neck <06677>, and the yoke <05923> shall be destroyed <02254> because <06440> of the anointing <08081>. 28 He is come <0935> to Aiath <05857>, he is passed <05674> to Migron <04051>; at Michmash <04363> he hath laid <06485> up his carriages <03627>: 29 They are gone <05674> over <05674> the passage <04569>: they have taken <03885> up their lodging <04411> at Geba <01387>; Ramah <07414> is afraid <02729>; Gibeah <01390> of Saul <07586> is fled <05127>. 30 Lift <06670> up thy voice <06963>, O daughter <01323> of Gallim <01554>: cause it to be heard <07181> unto Laish <03919>, O poor <06041> Anathoth <06068>. 31 Madmenah <04088> is removed <05074>; the inhabitants <03427> of Gebim <01374> gather <05756> themselves to flee. 32 As yet <05750> shall he remain <05975> at Nob <05011> that day <03117>: he shall shake <05130> his hand <03027> [against] the mount <02022> of the daughter <01004> of Zion <06726>, the hill <01389> of Jerusalem <03389>. 33 Behold <02009>, the Lord <0113>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, shall lop <05586> the bough <06288> with terror <04637>: and the high <07312> ones of stature <06967> [shall be] hewn <01438> down <01438>, and the haughty <01364> shall be humbled <08213>. 34 And he shall cut <05362> down the thickets <05442> of the forest <03293> with iron <01270>, and Lebanon <03844> shall fall <05307> by a mighty <0117> one. Isaiah 11 1. And there shall come <03318> forth <03318> a rod <02415> out of the stem <01503> of Jesse <03448>, and a Branch <05342> shall grow <06509> out of his roots <08328>: 2 And the spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068> shall rest <05117> upon him, the spirit <07307> of wisdom <02451> and understanding <0998>, the spirit <07307> of counsel <06098> and might <01369>, the spirit <07307> of knowledge <01847> and of the fear <03374> of the LORD <03068>; 3 And shall make him of quick understanding <07306> in the fear <03374> of the LORD <03068>: and he shall not judge <08199> after the sight <04758> of his eyes <05869>, neither <03808> reprove <03198> after <0310> the hearing <04926> of his ears <0241>: 4 But with righteousness <06664> shall he judge <08199> the poor <01800>, and reprove <03198> with equity <04334> for the meek <06035> of the earth <0776>: and he shall smite <05221> the earth <0776> with the rod <07626> of his mouth <06310>, and with the breath <07307> of his lips <08193> shall he slay <04191> the wicked <07563>. 5 And righteousness <06664> shall be the girdle <0232> of his loins <04975>, and faithfulness <0530> the girdle <0232> of his reins <02504>. 6 The wolf <02061> also shall dwell <01481> with the lamb <03532>, and the leopard <05246> shall lie <07257> down <07257> with the kid <01423>; and the calf <05695> and the young <03715> lion <03715> and the fatling <04806> together <03162>; and a little <06995> child <05288> shall lead <05090> them. 7 And the cow <06510> and the bear <01677> shall feed <07462>; their young <03206> ones shall lie <07257> down <07257> together <03162>: and the lion <0738> shall eat <0398> straw <08401> like the ox <01241>. 8 And the sucking <03243> child shall play <08173> on <05921> the hole <02356> of the asp <06620>, and the weaned <01580> child shall put <01911> his hand <03027> on <05921> the cockatrice <06848>' den <03975>. 9 They shall not hurt <07489> nor <03808> destroy <07843> in all <03605> my holy <06944> mountain <02022>: for the earth <0776> shall be full <04390> of the knowledge <01844> of the LORD <03068>, as the waters <04325> cover <03680> the sea <03220>. 10. And in that day <03117> there shall be a root <08328> of Jesse <03448>, which <0834> shall stand <05975> for an ensign <05251> of the people <05971>; to it shall the Gentiles <01471> seek <01875>: and his rest <04496> shall be glorious <03519>. 11 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] the Lord <0136> shall set his hand <03027> again <03254> the second <08145> time <06256> to recover <07069> the remnant <07605> of his people <05971>, which <0834> shall be left <07604>, from Assyria <0804>, and from Egypt <04714>, and from Pathros <06624>, and from Cush <03568>, and from Elam <05867>, and from Shinar <08152>, and from Hamath <02574>, and from the islands <0339> of the sea <03220>. 12 And he shall set <05375> up an ensign <05251> for the nations <01471>, and shall assemble <0622> the outcasts <01760> of Israel <03478>, and gather <06908> together the dispersed <05310> of Judah <03063> from the four <0702> corners <03671> of the earth <0776>. 13 The envy <07068> also of Ephraim <0669> shall depart <05493>, and the adversaries <06887> of Judah <03063> shall be cut <03772> off: Ephraim <0669> shall not envy <07065> Judah <03063>, and Judah <03063> shall not vex <06887> Ephraim <0669>. 14 But they shall fly <05774> upon the shoulders <03802> of the Philistines <06430> toward the west <03220>; they shall spoil <0962> them of the east <06924> together <03162>: they shall lay <07971> their hand <03027> upon Edom <0123> and Moab <04124>; and the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> shall obey <04928> them. 15 And the LORD <03068> shall utterly destroy <02763> the tongue <03956> of the Egyptian <04714> sea <03220>; and with his mighty <05868> wind <07307> shall he shake <05130> his hand <03027> over <05921> the river <05104>, and shall smite <05221> it in the seven <07651> streams <05158>, and make [men] go <01869> over <01869> dryshod <05275>. 16 And there shall be an highway <04546> for the remnant <07605> of his people <05971>, which <0834> shall be left <07604>, from Assyria <0804>; like as it was to Israel <03478> in the day <03117> that he came <05927> up out of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>. Isaiah 12 1. And in that day <03117> thou shalt say <0559>, O LORD <03068>, I will praise <03034> thee: though <03588> thou wast angry <0599> with me, thine anger <0639> is turned <07725> away, and thou comfortedst <05162> me. 2 Behold <02009>, God <0410> [is] my salvation <03444>; I will trust <0982>, and not be afraid <06342>: for the LORD <03050> JEHOVAH <03068> [is] my strength <05797> and [my] song <02176>; he also is become <01961> my salvation <03444>. 3 Therefore with joy <08342> shall ye draw <07579> water <04325> out of the wells <04599> of salvation <03444>. 4. And in that day <03117> shall ye say <0559>, Praise <03034> the LORD <03068>, call <07121> upon his name <08034>, declare <03045> his doings <05949> among the people <05971>, make mention <02142> that his name <08034> is exalted <07682>. 5 Sing <02167> unto the LORD <03068>; for he hath done <06466> excellent <01348> things: this <02063> [is] known <03045> in all <03605> the earth <0776>. 6 Cry <06670> out and shout <07442>, thou inhabitant <03427> of Zion <06726>: for great <01419> [is] the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478> in the midst <07130> of thee. Isaiah 13 1. The burden <04853> of Babylon <0894>, which <0834> Isaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531> did see <02372>. 2 Lift <05375> ye up a banner <05251> upon the high <08192> mountain <02022>, exalt <07311> the voice <06963> unto them, shake <05130> the hand <03027>, that they may go <0935> into the gates <06607> of the nobles <05081>. 3 I have commanded <06680> my sanctified <06942> ones, I have also <01571> called <07121> my mighty <01368> ones for mine anger <0639>, [even] them that rejoice <05947> in my highness <01346>. 4 The noise <06963> of a multitude <01995> in the mountains <02022>, like <01823> as of a great <07227> people <05971>; a tumultuous <07588> noise <06963> of the kingdoms <04467> of nations <01471> gathered <0622> together: the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> mustereth <06485> the host <06635> of the battle <04421>. 5 They come <0935> from a far <04801> country <0776>, from the end <07093> of heaven <08064>, [even] the LORD <03068>, and the weapons <03627> of his indignation <02195>, to destroy <02254> the whole <03605> land <0776>. 6. Howl <03213> ye; for the day <03117> of the LORD <03068> [is] at <07138> hand <07138>; it shall come <0935> as a destruction <07701> from the Almighty <07706>. 7 Therefore shall all <03605> hands <03027> be faint <07503>, and every <03605> man's <0582> heart <03824> shall melt <04549>: 8 And they shall be afraid <0926>: pangs <06735> and sorrows <02256> shall take <0270> hold <0270> of them; they shall be in pain <02342> as a woman that travaileth <03205>: they shall be amazed <08539> one <0376> at <0413> another <07453>; their faces <06440> [shall be as] flames <03851>. 9 Behold <02009>, the day <03117> of the LORD <03068> cometh <0935>, cruel <0394> both with wrath <05678> and fierce <02740> anger <0639>, to lay the land <0776> desolate <08047>: and he shall destroy <08045> the sinners <02400> thereof out of it. 10 For the stars <03556> of heaven <08064> and the constellations <03685> thereof shall not give their light <0216>: the sun <08121> shall be darkened <02821> in his going <03318> forth <03318>, and the moon <03394> shall not cause her light <0216> to shine <05050>. 11 And I will punish <06485> the world <08398> for [their] evil <07451>, and the wicked <07563> for their iniquity <05771>; and I will cause the arrogancy <01347> of the proud <02086> to cease <07673>, and will lay low <08213> the haughtiness <01346> of the terrible <06184>. 12 I will make a man <0582> more precious <03365> than fine gold <06337>; even a man <0120> than the golden <03800> wedge of Ophir <0211>. 13 Therefore I will shake <07264> the heavens <08064>, and the earth <0776> shall remove <07493> out of her place <04725>, in the wrath <05678> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, and in the day <03117> of his fierce <02740> anger <0639>. 14 And it shall be as the chased <05080> roe <06643>, and as a sheep <06629> that no <0369> man taketh <06908> up: they shall every man <0376> turn <06437> to his own people <05971>, and flee <05127> every <0376> one into <0413> his own land <0776>. 15 Every <03605> one that is found <04672> shall be thrust <01856> through <01856>; and every <03605> one that is joined <05595> [unto them] shall fall <05307> by the sword <02719>. 16 Their children <05768> also shall be dashed <07376> to pieces before their eyes <05869>; their houses <01004> shall be spoiled <08155>, and their wives <0802> ravished <07693>. 17 Behold <02005>, I will stir <05782> up the Medes <04074> against <05921> them, which <0834> shall not regard <02803> silver <03701>; and [as for] gold <02091>, they shall not delight <02654> in it. 18 [Their] bows <07198> also shall dash <07376> the young <05288> men to pieces; and they shall have no <03808> pity <07355> on the fruit <06529> of the womb <0990>; their eye <05869> shall not spare <02347> children <01121>. 19. And Babylon <0894>, the glory <06643> of kingdoms <04467>, the beauty <08597> of the Chaldees <03778>' excellency <01347>, shall be as when God <0430> overthrew <04114> Sodom <05467> and Gomorrah <06017>. 20 It shall never be inhabited <03427>, neither <03808> shall it be dwelt <07931> in from generation <01755> to generation <01755>: neither <03808> shall the Arabian <06153> pitch <0167> tent <0167> there <08033>; neither <03808> shall the shepherds <07462> make their fold <07257> there <08033>. 21 But wild <06728> beasts <06728> of the desert <06728> shall lie <07257> there <08033>; and their houses <01004> shall be full <04390> of doleful <0255> creatures <0255>; and owls shall dwell <07931> there <08033>, and satyrs <08163> shall dance <07540> there <08033>. 22 And the wild <0338> beasts <0338> of the islands <0338> shall cry <06030> in their desolate <0490> houses <0490>, and dragons <08577> in [their] pleasant <06027> palaces <01964>: and her time <06256> [is] near <07138> to come <0935>, and her days <03117> shall not be prolonged <04900>. Isaiah 14 1. For the LORD <03068> will have mercy <07355> on Jacob <03290>, and will yet <05750> choose <0977> Israel <03478>, and set <03240> them in their own land <0127>: and the strangers <01616> shall be joined <03867> with them, and they shall cleave <05596> to the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>. 2 And the people <05971> shall take <03947> them, and bring <0935> them to their place <04725>: and the house <01004> of Israel <03478> shall possess <05157> them in the land <0127> of the LORD <03068> for servants <05650> and handmaids <08198>: and they shall take them captives <07617>, whose captives <07617> they were; and they shall rule <07287> over their oppressors <05065>. 3 And it shall come <01961> to pass in the day <03117> that the LORD <03068> shall give thee rest <05117> from thy sorrow <06090>, and from thy fear <07267>, and from the hard <07186> bondage <05656> wherein <0834> thou wast made to serve <05647>, 4. That thou shalt take <05375> up this <02088> proverb <04912> against <05921> the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, and say <0559>, How <0349> hath the oppressor <05065> ceased <07673>! the golden <04062> city <04062> ceased <07673>! 5 The LORD <03068> hath broken <07665> the staff <04294> of the wicked <07563>, [and] the sceptre <07626> of the rulers <04910>. 6 He who smote <05221> the people <05971> in wrath <05678> with a continual stroke <04347>, he that ruled <07287> the nations <01471> in anger <0639>, is persecuted <04783>, [and] none <01097> hindereth <02820>. 7 The whole <03605> earth <0776> is at rest <05117>, [and] is quiet <08252>: they break <06476> forth into singing <07440>. 8 Yea <01571>, the fir <01265> trees rejoice <08055> at thee, [and] the cedars <0730> of Lebanon <03844>, [saying], Since <0227> thou art laid <07901> down <07901>, no <03808> feller <03772> is come <05927> up against <05921> us. 9 Hell <07585> from beneath <08478> is moved <07264> for thee to meet <07125> [thee] at thy coming <0935>: it stirreth <05782> up the dead <07496> for thee, [even] all <03605> the chief <06260> ones of the earth <0776>; it hath raised <06965> up from their thrones <03678> all <03605> the kings <04428> of the nations <01471>. 10 All <03605> they shall speak <06030> and say <0559> unto thee, Art thou also <01571> become <02470> weak <02470> as we? art thou become <04911> like <04911> unto us? 11 Thy pomp <01347> is brought <03381> down <03381> to the grave <07585>, [and] the noise <01998> of thy viols <05035>: the worm <07415> is spread <03331> under <08478> thee, and the worms <08438> cover <04374> thee. 12 How <0349> art thou fallen <05307> from heaven <08064>, O Lucifer <01966>, son <01121> of the morning <07837>! [how <0349>] art thou cut <01438> down <01438> to the ground <0776>, which didst weaken <02522> the nations <01471>! 13 For thou hast said <0559> in thine heart <03824>, I will ascend <05927> into heaven <08064>, I will exalt <07311> my throne <03678> above <04605> the stars <03556> of God <0410>: I will sit <03427> also upon the mount <02022> of the congregation <04150>, in the sides <03411> of the north <06828>: 14 I will ascend <05927> above <05921> the heights <01116> of the clouds <05645>; I will be like <01819> the most <05945> High <05945>. 15 Yet <0389> thou shalt be brought <03381> down <03381> to hell <07585>, to the sides <03411> of the pit <0953>. 16 They that see <07200> thee shall narrowly look <07688> upon thee, [and] consider <0995> thee, [saying <0559>, Is] this <02088> the man <0376> that made the earth <0776> to tremble <07264>, that did shake <07493> kingdoms <04467>; 17 [That] made <07760> the world <08398> as a wilderness <04057>, and destroyed <02040> the cities <05892> thereof; [that] opened <06605> not the house <01004> of his prisoners <0615>? 18 All <03605> the kings <04428> of the nations <01471>, [even] all <03605> of them, lie <07901> in glory <03519>, every <0376> one <0376> in his own house <01004>. 19 But thou art cast <07993> out of thy grave <06913> like an abominable <08581> branch <05342>, [and as] the raiment <03830> of those that are slain <02026>, thrust <02944> through <02944> with a sword <02719>, that go <03381> down <03381> to the stones <068> of the pit <0953>; as a carcase <06297> trodden <0947> under feet. 20 Thou shalt not be joined <03161> with them in burial <06900>, because <03588> thou hast destroyed <07843> thy land <0776>, [and] slain <02026> thy people <05971>: the seed <02233> of evildoers <07489> shall never be renowned <07121>. 21 Prepare <03559> slaughter <04293> for his children <01121> for the iniquity <05771> of their fathers <01>; that they do not rise <06965>, nor possess <03423> the land <0776>, nor fill <04390> the face <06440> of the world <08398> with cities <05892>. 22 For I will rise <06965> up against <05921> them, saith <05002> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, and cut <03772> off from Babylon <0894> the name <08034>, and remnant <07605>, and son <05209>, and nephew <05220>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>. 23 I will also make <07760> it a possession <04180> for the bittern <07090>, and pools <098> of water <04325>: and I will sweep <02894> it with the besom <04292> of destruction <08045>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. 24. The LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath sworn <07650>, saying <0559>, Surely as I have thought <01819>, so shall it come <01961> to pass; and as I have purposed <03289>, [so <03651>] shall it stand <06965>: 25 That I will break <07665> the Assyrian <0804> in my land <0776>, and upon my mountains <02022> tread <0947> him under foot <0947>: then shall his yoke <05923> depart <05493> from off <05921> them, and his burden <05448> depart <05493> from off <05921> their shoulders <07926>. 26 This <02063> [is] the purpose <06098> that is purposed <03289> upon the whole <03605> earth <0776>: and this <02063> [is] the hand <03027> that is stretched <05186> out upon all <03605> the nations <01471>. 27 For the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath purposed <03289>, and who <04310> shall disannul <06565> [it]? and his hand <03027> [is] stretched <05186> out, and who <04310> shall turn <07725> it back <07725>? 28 In the year <08141> that king <04428> Ahaz <0271> died <04194> was this <02088> burden <04853>. 29 Rejoice <08055> not thou, whole <03605> Palestina <06429>, because <03588> the rod <07626> of him that smote <05221> thee is broken <07665>: for out of the serpent's <05175> root <08328> shall come <03318> forth <03318> a cockatrice <06848>, and his fruit <06529> [shall be] a fiery <08314> flying <05774> serpent <08314>. 30 And the firstborn <01060> of the poor <01800> shall feed <07462>, and the needy <034> shall lie <07257> down <07257> in safety <0983>: and I will kill <04191> thy root <08328> with famine <07458>, and he shall slay <02026> thy remnant <07611>. 31 Howl <03213>, O gate <08179>; cry <02199>, O city <05892>; thou, whole <03605> Palestina <06429>, [art] dissolved <04127>: for there shall come <0935> from the north <06828> a smoke <06227>, and none <0369> [shall be] alone <0909> in his appointed <04151> times <04151>. 32 What <04100> shall [one] then answer <06030> the messengers <04397> of the nation <01471>? That the LORD <03068> hath founded <03245> Zion <06726>, and the poor <06041> of his people <05971> shall trust <02620> in it. Isaiah 15 1. The burden <04853> of Moab <04124>. Because <03588> in the night <03915> Ar <06144> of Moab <04124> is laid waste <07703>, [and] brought <01820> to silence <01820>; because <03588> in the night <03915> Kir <07024> of Moab <04124> is laid waste <07703>, [and] brought <01820> to silence; 2 He is gone <05927> up to Bajith <01006>, and to Dibon <01769>, the high <01116> places, to weep <01065>: Moab <04124> shall howl <03213> over <05921> Nebo <05015>, and over <05921> Medeba <04311>: on all <03605> their heads <07218> [shall be] baldness <07144>, [and] every <03605> beard <02206> cut <01438> off. 3 In their streets <02351> they shall gird <02296> themselves with sackcloth <08242>: on <05921> the tops <01406> of their houses, and in their streets <07339>, every <03605> one shall howl <03213>, weeping <01065> abundantly <03381>. 4 And Heshbon <02809> shall cry <02199>, and Elealeh <0500>: their voice <06963> shall be heard <08085> [even] unto Jahaz <03096>: therefore the armed <02502> soldiers <02502> of Moab <04124> shall cry <07321> out; his life <05315> shall be grievous <03415> unto him. 5 My heart <03820> shall cry <02199> out for Moab <04124>; his fugitives <01280> [shall flee] unto Zoar <06820>, an heifer <05697> of three <07992> years old <07992>: for by the mounting <04608> up of Luhith <03872> with weeping <01065> shall they go <05927> it up; for in the way <01870> of Horonaim <02773> they shall raise <05782> up a cry <02201> of destruction <07667>. 6. For the waters <04325> of Nimrim <05249> shall be desolate <04923>: for the hay <02682> is withered <03001> away, the grass <01877> faileth <03615>, there is no <03808> green <03418> thing. 7 Therefore the abundance <03502> they have gotten <06213>, and that which they have laid <06486> up, shall they carry <05375> away to the brook <05158> of the willows <06155>. 8 For the cry <02201> is gone <05362> round <05362> about the borders <01366> of Moab <04124>; the howling <03213> thereof unto Eglaim <097>, and the howling <03213> thereof unto Beerelim <0879>. 9 For the waters <04325> of Dimon <01775> shall be full <04390> of blood <01818>: for I will bring <07896> more <03254> upon Dimon <01775>, lions <0738> upon him that escapeth <06413> of Moab <04124>, and upon the remnant <07611> of the land <0127>. Isaiah 16 1. Send <07971> ye the lamb <03733> to the ruler <04910> of the land <0776> from Sela <05554> to the wilderness <04057>, unto the mount <02022> of the daughter <01323> of Zion <06726>. 2 For it shall be, [that], as a wandering <05074> bird <05775> cast <07971> out of the nest <07064>, [so] the daughters <01121> of Moab <04124> shall be at the fords <04569> of Arnon <0769>. 3 Take <0935> counsel <06098>, execute <06213> judgment <06415>; make <07896> thy shadow <06738> as the night <03915> in the midst <08432> of the noonday <06672>; hide <05641> the outcasts <05080>; bewray <01540> not him that wandereth <05074>. 4 Let mine outcasts <05080> dwell <01481> with thee, Moab <04124>; be thou a covert <05643> to them from the face <06440> of the spoiler <07703>: for the extortioner <04160> is at an end <0657>, the spoiler <07701> ceaseth <03615>, the oppressors <07429> are consumed <08552> out of the land <0776>. 5 And in mercy <02617> shall the throne <03678> be established <03559>: and he shall sit <03427> upon it in truth <0571> in the tabernacle <0168> of David <01732>, judging <08199>, and seeking <01875> judgment <04941>, and hasting <04106> righteousness <06664>. 6. We have heard <08085> of the pride <01347> of Moab <04124>; [he is] very <03966> proud <01341>: [even] of his haughtiness <01346>, and his pride <01347>, and his wrath <05678>: [but] his lies <0907> [shall] not [be] so <03651>. 7 Therefore <03651> shall Moab <04124> howl <03213> for Moab <04124>, every <03605> one shall howl <03213>: for the foundations <0808> of Kirhareseth <07025> shall ye mourn <01897>; surely <0389> [they are] stricken <05218>. 8 For the fields <07709> of Heshbon <02809> languish <0535>, [and] the vine <01612> of Sibmah <07643>: the lords <01167> of the heathen <01471> have broken <01986> down the principal <08291> plants <08291> thereof, they are come <05060> [even] unto Jazer <03270>, they wandered <08582> [through] the wilderness <04057>: her branches <07976> are stretched <05203> out, they are gone <05674> over <05674> the sea <03220>. 9 Therefore I will bewail <01058> with the weeping <01065> of Jazer <03270> the vine <01612> of Sibmah <07643>: I will water <07301> thee with my tears <01832>, O Heshbon <02809>, and Elealeh <0500>: for the shouting <01959> for thy summer <07019> fruits and for thy harvest <07105> is fallen <05307>. 10 And gladness <08057> is taken <0622> away, and joy <01524> out of the plentiful <03759> field; and in the vineyards <03754> there shall be no <03808> singing <07442>, neither <03808> shall there be shouting <0731>: the treaders <01869> shall tread <01869> out no <03808> wine <03196> in [their] presses <03342>; I have made [their vintage] shouting <01959> to cease <07673>. 11 Wherefore my bowels <04578> shall sound <01993> like an harp <03658> for Moab <04124>, and mine inward <07130> parts for Kirharesh <07025>. 12 And it shall come <01961> to pass, when <03588> it is seen <07200> that Moab <04124> is weary <03811> on <05921> the high <01116> place, that he shall come <0935> to his sanctuary <04720> to pray <06419>; but he shall not prevail <03201>. 13 This <02008> [is] the word <01697> that the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> concerning <0413> Moab <04124> since that time <0227>. 14 But now <06258> the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696>, saying <0559>, Within three <07969> years <08141>, as the years <08141> of an hireling <07916>, and the glory <03519> of Moab <04124> shall be contemned <07034>, with all <03605> that great <07227> multitude <01995>; and the remnant <07605> [shall be] very <04213> small <04213> [and] feeble <03808>. Isaiah 17 1. The burden <04853> of Damascus <01834>. Behold <02009>, Damascus <01834> is taken <05493> away <05493> from [being] a city <05892>, and it shall be a ruinous <04654> heap <04596>. 2 The cities <05892> of Aroer <06177> [are] forsaken <05800>: they shall be for flocks <05739>, which shall lie <07257> down <07257>, and none <0369> shall make [them] afraid <02729>. 3 The fortress <04013> also shall cease <07673> from Ephraim <0669>, and the kingdom <04467> from Damascus <01834>, and the remnant <07605> of Syria <0758>: they shall be as the glory <03519> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. 4 And in that day <03117> it shall come <01961> to pass, [that] the glory <03519> of Jacob <03290> shall be made thin <01809>, and the fatness <04924> of his flesh <01320> shall wax lean <07329>. 5 And it shall be as when the harvestman <07105> gathereth <0622> the corn <07054>, and reapeth <07114> the ears <07641> with his arm <02220>; and it shall be as he that gathereth <03950> ears <07641> in the valley <06010> of Rephaim <07497>. 6. Yet gleaning <05955> grapes shall be left <07604> in it, as the shaking <05363> of an olive <02132> tree, two <08147> [or] three <07969> berries <01620> in the top <07218> of the uppermost bough <0534>, four <0702> [or] five <02568> in the outmost fruitful <06509> branches <05585> thereof, saith <05002> the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>. 7 At that day <03117> shall a man <0120> look <08159> to his Maker <06213>, and his eyes <05869> shall have respect <07200> to the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 8 And he shall not look <08159> to the altars <04196>, the work <04639> of his hands <03027>, neither <03808> shall respect <07200> [that] which <0834> his fingers <0676> have made <06213>, either the groves <0842>, or the images <02553>. 9. In that day <03117> shall his strong <04581> cities <05892> be as a forsaken <05800> bough <02793>, and an uppermost branch <0534>, which <0834> they left <05800> because <06440> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: and there shall be desolation <08077>. 10 Because <03588> thou hast forgotten <07911> the God <0430> of thy salvation <03468>, and hast not been mindful <02142> of the rock <06697> of thy strength <04581>, therefore shalt thou plant <05193> pleasant <02532> plants <05194>, and shalt set <02232> it with strange <02114> slips <02156>: 11 In the day <03117> shalt thou make thy plant <05194> to grow <07735>, and in the morning <01242> shalt thou make thy seed <02233> to flourish <06524>: [but] the harvest <07105> [shall be] a heap <05067> in the day <03117> of grief <02470> and of desperate <0605> sorrow <03511>. 12. Woe <01945> to the multitude <01995> of many <07227> people <05971>, [which] make a noise <01993> like the noise <01993> of the seas <03220>; and to the rushing <07588> of nations <03816>, [that] make a rushing <07582> like the rushing <07582> of mighty <03524> waters <04325>! 13 The nations <03816> shall rush <07582> like the rushing <07588> of many <07227> waters <04325>: but [God] shall rebuke <01605> them, and they shall flee <05127> far <04801> off, and shall be chased <07291> as the chaff <04671> of the mountains <02022> before <06440> the wind <07307>, and like a rolling <01534> thing before <06440> the whirlwind. 14 And behold <02009> at eveningtide trouble <01091>; [and] before <02962> the morning <01242> he [is] not. This <02088> [is] the portion <02506> of them that spoil <08154> us, and the lot <01486> of them that rob <0962> us. Isaiah 18 1. Woe <01945> to the land <0776> shadowing <06767> with wings <03671>, which <0834> [is] beyond <05676> the rivers <05104> of Ethiopia <03568>: 2 That sendeth <07971> ambassadors <06735> by the sea <03220>, even in vessels <03627> of bulrushes <01573> upon the waters <04325>, [saying], Go <03212>, ye swift <07031> messengers <04397>, to a nation <01471> scattered <04900> and peeled <04178>, to a people <05971> terrible <03372> from their beginning <01931> hitherto <01973>; a nation <01471> meted <06978> out and trodden <04001> down, whose <0834> land <0776> the rivers <05104> have spoiled <0958>! 3 All <03605> ye inhabitants <03427> of the world <08398>, and dwellers <07931> on the earth <0776>, see <07200> ye, when he lifteth <05375> up an ensign <05251> on the mountains <02022>; and when he bloweth <08628> a trumpet <07782>, hear <08085> ye. 4 For so <03541> the LORD <03068> said <0559> unto me, I will take my rest <08252>, and I will consider <05027> in my dwelling <04349> place like a clear <06703> heat <02527> upon herbs <0216>, [and] like a cloud <05645> of dew <02919> in the heat <02527> of harvest <07105>. 5 For afore <06440> the harvest <07105>, when <03588> the bud <06525> is perfect <08552>, and the sour <01155> grape <01155> is ripening <01580> in the flower <05327>, he shall both cut <03772> off the sprigs <02150> with pruning hooks, and take <05493> away <05493> [and] cut <08456> down the branches <05189>. 6 They shall be left <05800> together <03162> unto the fowls <05861> of the mountains <02022>, and to the beasts <0929> of the earth <0776>: and the fowls <05861> shall summer <06972> upon them, and all <03605> the beasts <0929> of the earth <0776> shall winter <02778> upon them. 7 In that time <06256> shall the present <07862> be brought <02986> unto the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> of a people <05971> scattered <04900> and peeled <04178>, and from a people <05971> terrible <03372> from their beginning <01931> hitherto <01973>; a nation <01471> meted <06978> out and trodden <04001> under foot <04001>, whose <0834> land <0776> the rivers <05104> have spoiled <0958>, to the place <04725> of the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the mount <02022> Zion <06726>. Isaiah 19 1. The burden <04853> of Egypt <04714>. Behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> rideth <07392> upon a swift <07031> cloud <05645>, and shall come <0935> into Egypt <04714>: and the idols <0457> of Egypt <04714> shall be moved <05128> at his presence <06440>, and the heart <03824> of Egypt <04714> shall melt <04549> in the midst <07130> of it. 2 And I will set <05526> the Egyptians <04714> against the Egyptians <04714>: and they shall fight <03898> every <0376> one <0376> against his brother <0251>, and every <0376> one <0376> against his neighbour <07453>; city <05892> against city <05892>, [and] kingdom <04467> against kingdom <04467>. 3 And the spirit <07307> of Egypt <04714> shall fail <01238> in the midst <07130> thereof; and I will destroy <01104> the counsel <06098> thereof: and they shall seek <01875> to the idols <0457>, and to the charmers <0328>, and to them that have familiar spirits <0178>, and to the wizards <03049>. 4 And the Egyptians <04714> will I give <05534> over <05534> into the hand <03027> of a cruel <07186> lord <0113>; and a fierce <05794> king <04428> shall rule <04910> over them, saith <05002> the Lord <0113>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. 5 And the waters <04325> shall fail <05405> from the sea <03220>, and the river <05104> shall be wasted <02717> and dried <03001> up. 6 And they shall turn <02186> the rivers <05104> far away; [and] the brooks <02975> of defence <04692> shall be emptied <01809> and dried <02717> up: the reeds <07070> and flags <05488> shall wither <07060>. 7 The paper <06169> reeds by the brooks <02975>, by the mouth <06310> of the brooks <02975>, and every <03605> thing sown <04218> by the brooks <02975>, shall wither <03001>, be driven <05086> away, and be no <0369> [more]. 8 The fishers <01771> also shall mourn <0578>, and all <03605> they that cast <07993> angle <02443> into the brooks <02975> shall lament <056>, and they that spread <06566> nets <04364> upon the waters <04325> shall languish <0535>. 9 Moreover they that work <05647> in fine <08305> flax <06593>, and they that weave <0707> networks <02355>, shall be confounded <0954>. 10 And they shall be broken <01792> in the purposes <08356> thereof, all <03605> that make <06213> sluices <07938> [and] ponds <099> for fish <05315>. 11 Surely <0389> the princes <08269> of Zoan <06814> [are] fools <0191>, the counsel <06098> of the wise <02450> counsellors <03289> of Pharaoh <06547> is become <01197> brutish <01197>: how <0349> say <0559> ye unto Pharaoh <06547>, I [am] the son <01121> of the wise <02450>, the son <01121> of ancient <06924> kings <04428>? 12 Where <0335> [are] they? where <0645> [are] thy wise <02450> [men]? and let them tell <05046> thee now <04994>, and let them know <03045> what <04100> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath purposed <03289> upon Egypt <04714>. 13 The princes <08269> of Zoan <06814> are become <02973> fools <02973>, the princes <08269> of Noph <05297> are deceived <05377>; they have also seduced <08582> Egypt <04714>, [even they that are] the stay <06438> of the tribes <07626> thereof. 14 The LORD <03068> hath mingled <04537> a perverse <05773> spirit <07307> in the midst <07130> thereof: and they have caused Egypt <04714> to err <08582> in every <03605> work <04639> thereof, as a drunken <07910> [man] staggereth <08582> in his vomit <06892>. 15 Neither <03808> shall there be [any] work <04639> for Egypt <04714>, which the head <07218> or tail <02180>, branch <03712> or rush <0100>, may do <06213>. 16 In that day <03117> shall Egypt <04714> be like unto women <0802>: and it shall be afraid <02729> and fear <06342> because <06440> of the shaking <08573> of the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, which <0834> he shaketh <05130> over <05921> it. 17 And the land <0127> of Judah <03063> shall be a terror <02283> unto Egypt <04714>, every <03605> one that maketh mention <02142> thereof shall be afraid <06342> in himself, because <06440> of the counsel <06098> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, which <0834> he hath determined <03289> against <05921> it. 18. In that day <03117> shall five <02568> cities <05892> in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> speak <01696> the language <08193> of Canaan <03667>, and swear <07650> to the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>; one <0259> shall be called <0559>, The city <05892> of destruction <02041>. 19 In that day <03117> shall there be an altar <04196> to the LORD <03068> in the midst <08432> of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, and a pillar <04676> at <0681> the border <01366> thereof to the LORD <03068>. 20 And it shall be for a sign <0226> and for a witness <05707> unto the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>: for they shall cry <06817> unto the LORD <03068> because <06440> of the oppressors <03905>, and he shall send <07971> them a saviour <03467>, and a great <07227> one, and he shall deliver <05337> them. 21 And the LORD <03068> shall be known <03045> to Egypt <04714>, and the Egyptians <04714> shall know <03045> the LORD <03068> in that day <03117>, and shall do <05647> sacrifice <02077> and oblation <04503>; yea, they shall vow <05087> a vow <05088> unto the LORD <03068>, and perform <07999> [it]. 22 And the LORD <03068> shall smite <05062> Egypt <04714>: he shall smite <05062> and heal <07495> [it]: and they shall return <07725> [even] to the LORD <03068>, and he shall be intreated <06279> of them, and shall heal <07495> them. 23 In that day <03117> shall there be a highway <04546> out of Egypt <04714> to Assyria <0804>, and the Assyrian <0804> shall come <0935> into Egypt <04714>, and the Egyptian <04714> into Assyria <0804>, and the Egyptians <04714> shall serve <05647> with the Assyrians <0804>. 24 In that day <03117> shall Israel <03478> be the third <07992> with Egypt <04714> and with Assyria <0804>, [even] a blessing <01293> in the midst <07130> of the land <0776>: 25 Whom <0834> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> shall bless <01288>, saying <0559>, Blessed <01288> [be] Egypt <04714> my people <05971>, and Assyria <0804> the work <04639> of my hands <03027>, and Israel <03478> mine inheritance <05159>. Isaiah 20 1. In the year <08141> that Tartan <08661> came <0935> unto Ashdod <0795>, (when Sargon <05623> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> sent <07971> him,) and fought <03898> against Ashdod <0795>, and took <03920> it; 2 At the same <01931> time <06256> spake <01696> the LORD <03068> by Isaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531>, saying <0559>, Go <03212> and loose <06605> the sackcloth <08242> from off <05921> thy loins <04975>, and put <02502> off thy shoe <05275> from thy foot <07272>. And he did <06213> so <03651>, walking <01980> naked <06174> and barefoot <03182>. 3 And the LORD <03068> said <0559>, Like as my servant <05650> Isaiah <03470> hath walked <01980> naked <06174> and barefoot <03182> three <07969> years <08141> [for] a sign <0226> and wonder <04159> upon Egypt <04714> and upon Ethiopia <03568>; 4 So <03651> shall the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> lead <05090> away the Egyptians <04714> prisoners <07628>, and the Ethiopians <03569> captives <01546>, young <05288> and old <02205>, naked <06174> and barefoot <03182>, even with [their] buttocks <08357> uncovered <02834>, to the shame <06172> of Egypt <04714>. 5 And they shall be afraid <02865> and ashamed <0954> of Ethiopia <03568> their expectation <04007>, and of Egypt <04714> their glory <08597>. 6 And the inhabitant <03427> of this <02088> isle <0339> shall say <0559> in that day <03117>, Behold <02009>, such <03541> [is] our expectation <04007>, whither we flee <05127> for help <05833> to be delivered <05337> from the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>: and how <0349> shall we escape <04422>? Isaiah 21 1. The burden <04853> of the desert <04057> of the sea <03220>. As whirlwinds <05492> in the south <05045> pass <02498> through; [so] it cometh <0935> from the desert <04057>, from a terrible <03372> land <0776>. 2 A grievous <07186> vision <02380> is declared <05046> unto me; the treacherous <0898> dealer dealeth treacherously <0898>, and the spoiler <07703> spoileth <07703>. Go <05927> up, O Elam <05867>: besiege <06696>, O Media <04074>; all <03605> the sighing <0585> thereof have I made to cease <07673>. 3 Therefore are my loins <04975> filled <04390> with pain <02479>: pangs <06735> have taken <0270> hold <0270> upon me, as the pangs <06735> of a woman that travaileth <03205>: I was bowed <05791> down at the hearing <08085> [of it]; I was dismayed <0926> at the seeing <07200> [of it]. 4 My heart <03824> panted <08582>, fearfulness <06427> affrighted <01204> me: the night <05399> of my pleasure <02837> hath he turned <07760> into fear <02731> unto me. 5 Prepare <06186> the table <07979>, watch <06822> in the watchtower <06844>, eat <0398>, drink <08354>: arise <06965>, ye princes <08269>, [and] anoint <04886> the shield <04043>. 6 For thus <03541> hath the Lord <0136> said <0559> unto me, Go <03212>, set <05975> a watchman <06822>, let him declare <05046> what <0834> he seeth <07200>. 7 And he saw <07200> a chariot <07393> [with] a couple <06776> of horsemen <06571>, a chariot <07393> of asses <02543>, [and] a chariot <07393> of camels <01581>; and he hearkened <07181> diligently <07182> with much <07227> heed <07182>: 8 And he cried <07121>, A lion <0738>: My lord <0136>, I stand <05975> continually <08548> upon the watchtower <04707> in the daytime <03119>, and I am set <05324> in my ward <04931> whole <03605> nights <03915>: 9 And, behold <02009>, here <02088> cometh <0935> a chariot <07393> of men <0376>, [with] a couple <06776> of horsemen <06571>. And he answered <06030> and said <0559>, Babylon <0894> is fallen <05307>, is fallen <05307>; and all <03605> the graven <06456> images of her gods <0430> he hath broken <07665> unto the ground <0776>. 10 O my threshing <04098>, and the corn <01121> of my floor <01637>: that which <0834> I have heard <08085> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, have I declared <05046> unto you. 11. The burden <04853> of Dumah <01746>. He calleth <07121> to me out of Seir <08165>, Watchman <08104>, what <04100> of the night <03915>? Watchman <08104>, what <04100> of the night <03915>? 12 The watchman <08104> said <0559>, The morning <01242> cometh <0857>, and also <01571> the night <03915>: if <0518> ye will enquire <01158>, enquire <01158> ye: return <07725>, come <0857>. 13. The burden <04853> upon Arabia <06152>. In the forest <03293> in Arabia <06152> shall ye lodge <03885>, O ye travelling <0736> companies <0736> of Dedanim <01720>. 14 The inhabitants <03427> of the land <0776> of Tema <08485> brought <0857> water <04325> to him that was thirsty <06771>, they prevented <06923> with their bread <03899> him that fled <05074>. 15 For they fled <05074> from the swords <02719>, from the drawn <05203> sword <02719>, and from the bent <01869> bow <07198>, and from the grievousness <03514> of war <04421>. 16 For thus <03541> hath the Lord <0136> said <0559> unto me, Within <05750> a year <08141>, according to the years <08141> of an hireling <07916>, and all <03605> the glory <03519> of Kedar <06938> shall fail <03615>: 17 And the residue <07605> of the number <04557> of archers <07198>, the mighty <01368> men of the children <01121> of Kedar <06938>, shall be diminished <04591>: for the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> hath spoken <01696> [it]. Isaiah 22 1. The burden <04853> of the valley <01516> of vision <02384>. What <04100> aileth thee now <0645>, that thou art wholly <03605> gone <05927> up to the housetops <01406>? 2 Thou that art full <04392> of stirs <08663>, a tumultuous <01993> city <05892>, a joyous <05947> city <07151>: thy slain <02491> [men are] not slain <02491> with the sword <02719>, nor <03808> dead <04191> in battle <04421>. 3 All <03605> thy rulers <07101> are fled <05074> together <03162>, they are bound <0631> by the archers <07198>: all <03605> that are found <04672> in thee are bound <0631> together <03162>, [which] have fled <01272> from far <07350>. 4 Therefore said <0559> I, Look <08159> away from me; I will weep <01065> bitterly <04843>, labour <0213> not to comfort <05162> me, because <05921> of the spoiling <07701> of the daughter <01323> of my people <05971>. 5 For [it is] a day <03117> of trouble <04103>, and of treading <04001> down, and of perplexity <03998> by the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635> in the valley <01516> of vision <02384>, breaking <06979> down the walls <07023>, and of crying <07771> to the mountains <02022>. 6 And Elam <05867> bare <05375> the quiver <0827> with chariots <07393> of men <0120> [and] horsemen <06571>, and Kir <07024> uncovered <06168> the shield <04043>. 7 And it shall come <01961> to pass, [that] thy choicest <04055> valleys <06010> shall be full <04390> of chariots <07393>, and the horsemen <06571> shall set <07896> themselves in array <07896> at the gate <08179>. 8. And he discovered <01540> the covering <04539> of Judah <03063>, and thou didst look <05027> in that day <03117> to the armour <05402> of the house <01004> of the forest <03293>. 9 Ye have seen <07200> also the breaches <01233> of the city <05892> of David <01732>, that they are many <07231>: and ye gathered <06908> together the waters <04325> of the lower <08481> pool <01295>. 10 And ye have numbered <05608> the houses <01004> of Jerusalem <03389>, and the houses <01004> have ye broken <05422> down <05422> to fortify <01219> the wall <02346>. 11 Ye made <06213> also a ditch <04724> between <0996> the two walls <02346> for the water <04325> of the old <03465> pool <01295>: but ye have not looked <05027> unto the maker <06213> thereof, neither <03808> had respect <07200> unto him that fashioned <03335> it long <07350> ago <07350>. 12 And in that day <03117> did the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635> call <07121> to weeping <01065>, and to mourning <04553>, and to baldness <07144>, and to girding <02296> with sackcloth <08242>: 13 And behold <02009> joy <08342> and gladness <08057>, slaying <02026> oxen <01241>, and killing <07819> sheep <06629>, eating <0398> flesh <01320>, and drinking <08354> wine <03196>: let us eat <0398> and drink <08354>; for to morrow <04279> we shall die <04191>. 14 And it was revealed <01540> in mine ears <0241> by the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, Surely <0518> this <02088> iniquity <05771> shall not be purged <03722> from you till <05704> ye die <04191>, saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635>. 15. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635>, Go <03212>, get <0935> thee unto this <02088> treasurer <05532>, [even] unto Shebna <07644>, which <0834> [is] over <05921> the house <01004>, [and say <0559>], 16 What <04100> hast thou here <06311>? and whom <04310> hast thou here <06311>, that thou hast hewed <02672> thee out a sepulchre <06913> here <06311>, [as] he that heweth <02672> him out a sepulchre <06913> on high <04791>, [and] that graveth an habitation <04908> for himself in a rock <05553>? 17 Behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> will carry <02904> thee away with a mighty <01397> captivity <02925>, and will surely cover <05844> thee. 18 He will surely violently turn <06801> and toss <06802> thee [like] a ball <01754> into <0413> a large country <0776>: there <08033> shalt thou die <04191>, and there <08033> the chariots <04818> of thy glory <03519> [shall be] the shame <07036> of thy lord's <0113> house <01004>. 19 And I will drive <01920> thee from thy station <04673>, and from thy state <04612> shall he pull <02040> thee down. 20 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, that I will call <07121> my servant <05650> Eliakim <0471> the son <01121> of Hilkiah <02518>: 21 And I will clothe <03847> him with thy robe <03301>, and strengthen <02388> him with thy girdle <073>, and I will commit <05414> thy government <04475> into his hand <03027>: and he shall be a father <01> to the inhabitants <03427> of Jerusalem <03389>, and to the house <01004> of Judah <03063>. 22 And the key <04668> of the house <01004> of David <01732> will I lay <05414> upon his shoulder <07926>; so he shall open <06605>, and none <0369> shall shut <05462>; and he shall shut <05462>, and none <0369> shall open <06605>. 23 And I will fasten <08628> him [as] a nail <03489> in a sure <0539> place <04725>; and he shall be for a glorious <03519> throne <03678> to his father's <01> house <01004>. 24 And they shall hang <08518> upon him all <03605> the glory <03519> of his father's <01> house <01004>, the offspring <06631> and the issue <06849>, all <03605> vessels <03627> of small <06996> quantity, from the vessels <03627> of cups <0101>, even to all <03605> the vessels <03627> of flagons <05035>. 25 In that day <03117>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, shall the nail <03489> that is fastened <08628> in the sure <0539> place <04725> be removed <04185>, and be cut <01438> down <01438>, and fall <05307>; and the burden <04853> that [was] upon it shall be cut <03772> off: for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> [it]. Isaiah 23 1. The burden <04853> of Tyre <06865>. Howl <03213>, ye ships <0591> of Tarshish <08659>; for it is laid waste <07703>, so that there is no house <01004>, no entering <0935> in: from the land <0776> of Chittim <03794> it is revealed <01540> to them. 2 Be still <01826>, ye inhabitants <03427> of the isle <0339>; thou whom the merchants <05503> of Zidon <06721>, that pass <05674> over <05674> the sea <03220>, have replenished <04390>. 3 And by great <07227> waters <04325> the seed <02233> of Sihor <07883>, the harvest <07105> of the river <02975>, [is] her revenue <08393>; and she is a mart <05505> of nations <01471>. 4 Be thou ashamed <0954>, O Zidon <06721>: for the sea <03220> hath spoken <0559>, [even] the strength <04581> of the sea <03220>, saying <0559>, I travail <02342> not, nor <03808> bring <03205> forth <03205> children, neither <03808> do I nourish <01431> up young <0970> men, [nor] bring <07311> up virgins <01330>. 5 As at the report <08088> concerning Egypt <04714>, [so] shall they be sorely pained <02342> at the report <08088> of Tyre <06865>. 6 Pass <05674> ye over <05674> to Tarshish <08659>; howl <03213>, ye inhabitants <03427> of the isle <0339>. 7 [Is] this <02063> your joyous <05947> [city], whose antiquity <06927> [is] of ancient <06924> days <03117>? her own feet <07272> shall carry <02986> her afar <07350> off to sojourn <01481>. 8 Who <04310> hath taken this <02063> counsel <03289> against <05921> Tyre <06865>, the crowning <05849> [city], whose <0834> merchants <05503> [are] princes <08269>, whose traffickers <03669> [are] the honourable <01935> of the earth <0776>? 9 The LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> hath purposed <03289> it, to stain <02490> the pride <01347> of all <03605> glory <06643>, [and] to bring <07034> into contempt <07043> all <03605> the honourable <03513> of the earth <0776>. 10 Pass <05674> through thy land <0776> as a river <02975>, O daughter <01323> of Tarshish <08659>: [there is] no <0369> more <05750> strength <04206>. 11 He stretched <05186> out his hand <03027> over <05921> the sea <03220>, he shook <07264> the kingdoms <04467>: the LORD <03068> hath given a commandment <06680> against <0413> the merchant <03667> [city], to destroy <08045> the strong <04581> holds <04581> thereof. 12 And he said <0559>, Thou shalt no <03808> more <05750> rejoice <05937>, O thou oppressed <06231> virgin <01330>, daughter <01323> of Zidon <06721>: arise <06965>, pass <05674> over <05674> to Chittim <03794>; there <08033> also <01571> shalt thou have no <03808> rest <05117>. 13 Behold <02005> the land <0776> of the Chaldeans <03778>; this <02088> people <05971> was not, [till] the Assyrian <0804> founded <03245> it for them that dwell in the wilderness <06728>: they set <06965> up the towers <0971> thereof, they raised <06209> up the palaces <0759> thereof; [and] he brought <07760> it to ruin <04654>. 14 Howl <03213>, ye ships <0591> of Tarshish <08659>: for your strength <04581> is laid waste <07703>. 15. And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, that Tyre <06865> shall be forgotten <07911> seventy <07657> years <08141>, according to the days <03117> of one <0259> king <04428>: after the end <07093> of seventy <07657> years <08141> shall Tyre <06865> sing <07892> as an harlot <02181>. 16 Take <03947> an harp <03658>, go <05437> about <05437> the city <05892>, thou harlot <02181> that hast been forgotten <07911>; make sweet <03190> melody <05059>, sing many <07235> songs <07892>, that thou mayest be remembered <02142>. 17 And it shall come <01961> to pass after the end <07093> of seventy <07657> years <08141>, that the LORD <03068> will visit <06485> Tyre <06865>, and she shall turn <07725> to her hire <0868>, and shall commit <02181> fornication <02181> with all <03605> the kingdoms <04467> of the world <0776> upon the face <06440> of the earth <0127>. 18 And her merchandise <05504> and her hire <0868> shall be holiness <06944> to the LORD <03068>: it shall not be treasured <0686> nor <03808> laid <02630> up; for her merchandise <05504> shall be for them that dwell <03427> before <06440> the LORD <03068>, to eat <0398> sufficiently <07654>, and for durable <06266> clothing <04374>. Isaiah 24 1. Behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> maketh the earth <0776> empty <01238>, and maketh it waste <01110>, and turneth <05753> it upside down, and scattereth <06327> abroad <06327> the inhabitants <03427> thereof. 2 And it shall be, as with the people <05971>, so with the priest <03548>; as with the servant <05650>, so with his master <0113>; as with the maid <08198>, so with her mistress <01404>; as with the buyer <07069>, so with the seller <04376>; as with the lender <03867>, so with the borrower <03867>; as with the taker of usury <05383>, so with the giver of usury <05378> to him. 3 The land <0776> shall be utterly emptied <01238>, and utterly spoiled <0962>: for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> this <02088> word <01697>. 4 The earth <0776> mourneth <056> [and] fadeth <05034> away, the world <08398> languisheth <0535> [and] fadeth <05034> away, the haughty <04791> people <05971> of the earth <0776> do languish <0535>. 5 The earth <0776> also is defiled <02610> under <08478> the inhabitants <03427> thereof; because <03588> they have transgressed <05674> the laws <08451>, changed <02498> the ordinance <02706>, broken <06565> the everlasting <05769> covenant <01285>. 6 Therefore hath the curse <0423> devoured <0398> the earth <0776>, and they that dwell <03427> therein are desolate <0816>: therefore the inhabitants <03427> of the earth <0776> are burned <02787>, and few <04213> men <0582> left <07604>. 7 The new <08492> wine <08492> mourneth <056>, the vine <01612> languisheth <0535>, all <03605> the merryhearted do sigh <0584>. 8 The mirth <04885> of tabrets <08596> ceaseth <07673>, the noise <07588> of them that rejoice <05947> endeth <02308>, the joy <04885> of the harp <03658> ceaseth <07673>. 9 They shall not drink <08354> wine <03196> with a song <07892>; strong drink <07941> shall be bitter <04843> to them that drink <08354> it. 10 The city <07151> of confusion <08414> is broken <07665> down: every <03605> house <01004> is shut <05462> up, that no man <0935> may come <0935> in. 11 [There is] a crying <06682> for wine <03196> in the streets <02351>; all <03605> joy <08057> is darkened <06150>, the mirth <04885> of the land <0776> is gone <01540>. 12 In the city <05892> is left <07604> desolation <08047>, and the gate <08179> is smitten <03807> with destruction <07591>. 13. When <03588> thus <03541> it shall be in the midst <07130> of the land <0776> among <08432> the people <05971>, [there shall be] as the shaking <05363> of an olive <02132> tree, [and] as the gleaning <05955> grapes when <0518> the vintage <01210> is done <03615>. 14 They shall lift <05375> up their voice <06963>, they shall sing <07442> for the majesty <01347> of the LORD <03068>, they shall cry <06670> aloud <06670> from the sea <03220>. 15 Wherefore glorify <03513> ye the LORD <03068> in the fires <0217>, [even] the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> in the isles <0339> of the sea <03220>. 16. From the uttermost <03671> part of the earth <0776> have we heard <08085> songs <02158>, [even] glory <06643> to the righteous <06662>. But I said <0559>, My leanness <07334>, my leanness <07334>, woe <0188> unto me! the treacherous <0898> dealers have dealt treacherously <0898>; yea, the treacherous <0898> dealers have dealt very <0899> treacherously <0898>. 17 Fear <06343>, and the pit <06354>, and the snare <06341>, [are] upon thee, O inhabitant <03427> of the earth <0776>. 18 And it shall come <01961> to pass, [that] he who fleeth <05127> from the noise <06963> of the fear <06343> shall fall <05307> into <0413> the pit <06354>; and he that cometh <05927> up out of the midst <08432> of the pit <06354> shall be taken <03920> in the snare <06341>: for the windows <0699> from on high <04791> are open <06605>, and the foundations <04146> of the earth <0776> do shake <07493>. 19 The earth <0776> is utterly broken <07489> down, the earth <0776> is clean <06565> dissolved <06565>, the earth <0776> is moved <04132> exceedingly. 20 The earth <0776> shall reel <05128> to and fro like a drunkard <07910>, and shall be removed <05110> like a cottage <04412>; and the transgression <06588> thereof shall be heavy <03513> upon it; and it shall fall <05307>, and not rise <06965> again <03254>. 21 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] the LORD <03068> shall punish <06485> the host <06635> of the high <04791> ones [that are] on high <04791>, and the kings <04428> of the earth <0127> upon the earth <0127>. 22 And they shall be gathered <0622> together, [as] prisoners <0616> are gathered <0626> in the pit <0953>, and shall be shut <05462> up in the prison <04525>, and after many <07230> days <03117> shall they be visited <06485>. 23 Then the moon <03842> shall be confounded <02659>, and the sun <02535> ashamed <0954>, when <03588> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> shall reign <04427> in mount <02022> Zion <06726>, and in Jerusalem <03389>, and before <05048> his ancients <02204> gloriously <03519>. Isaiah 25 1. O LORD <03068>, thou [art] my God <0430>; I will exalt <07311> thee, I will praise <03034> thy name <08034>; for thou hast done <06213> wonderful <06382> [things; thy] counsels <06098> of old <07350> [are] faithfulness <0530> [and] truth <0544>. 2 For thou hast made <07760> of a city <05892> an heap <01530>; [of] a defenced <01219> city <07151> a ruin <04654>: a palace <0759> of strangers <02114> to be no city <05892>; it shall never be built <01129>. 3 Therefore shall the strong <05794> people <05971> glorify <03513> thee, the city <07151> of the terrible <06184> nations <01471> shall fear <03372> thee. 4 For thou hast been <01961> a strength <04581> to the poor <01800>, a strength <04581> to the needy <034> in his distress <06862>, a refuge <04268> from the storm <02230>, a shadow <06738> from the heat <02721>, when <03588> the blast <07307> of the terrible <06184> ones [is] as a storm <02230> [against] the wall <07023>. 5 Thou shalt bring <03665> down <03665> the noise <07588> of strangers <02114>, as the heat <02721> in a dry <06724> place; [even] the heat <02721> with the shadow <06738> of a cloud <05645>: the branch <02158> of the terrible <06184> ones shall be brought <06030> low <06030>. 6. And in this <02088> mountain <02022> shall the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> make <06213> unto all <03605> people <05971> a feast <04960> of fat <08081> things, a feast <04960> of wines <08105> on the lees <08105>, of fat <08081> things full of marrow <04229>, of wines <08105> on the lees <08105> well refined <02212>. 7 And he will destroy <01104> in this <02088> mountain <02022> the face <06440> of the covering <03875> cast <03874> over <05921> all <03605> people <05971>, and the vail <04541> that is spread <05259> over <05921> all <03605> nations <01471>. 8 He will swallow <01104> up death <04194> in victory <05331>; and the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> will wipe <04229> away tears <01832> from off <05921> all <03605> faces <06440>; and the rebuke <02781> of his people <05971> shall he take <05493> away <05493> from off <05921> all <03605> the earth <0776>: for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> [it]. 9. And it shall be said <0559> in that day <03117>, Lo <02009>, this <02088> [is] our God <0430>; we have waited <06960> for him, and he will save <03467> us: this <02088> [is] the LORD <03068>; we have waited <06960> for him, we will be glad <01528> and rejoice <08055> in his salvation <03444>. 10 For in this <02088> mountain <02022> shall the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> rest <05117>, and Moab <04124> shall be trodden <01758> down under <08478> him, even as straw <04963> is trodden <01758> down for the dunghill <04087>. 11 And he shall spread <06566> forth his hands <03027> in the midst <07130> of them, as he that swimmeth <07811> spreadeth <06566> forth [his hands] to swim <07811>: and he shall bring <08213> down <08213> their pride <01346> together with the spoils <0698> of their hands <03027>. 12 And the fortress <04013> of the high <04869> fort <04869> of thy walls <02346> shall he bring <07817> down <07817>, lay low <08213>, [and] bring <05060> to the ground <0776>, [even] to the dust <06083>. Isaiah 26 1. In that day <03117> shall this <02088> song <07892> be sung <07891> in the land <0776> of Judah <03063>; We have a strong <05797> city <05892>; salvation <03444> will [God] appoint <07896> [for] walls <02346> and bulwarks <02426>. 2 Open <06605> ye the gates <08179>, that the righteous <06662> nation <01471> which keepeth <08104> the truth <0529> may enter <0935> in. 3 Thou wilt keep <05341> [him] in perfect peace <07965>, [whose] mind <03336> [is] stayed <05564> [on thee]: because <03588> he trusteth <0982> in thee. 4 Trust <0982> ye in the LORD <03068> for ever <05703>: for in the LORD <03050> JEHOVAH <03068> [is] everlasting <05769> strength <06697>: 5. For he bringeth <07817> down <07817> them that dwell <03427> on <04791> high <04791>; the lofty <07682> city <07151>, he layeth it low <08213>; he layeth it low <08213>, [even] to the ground <0776>; he bringeth <05060> it [even] to the dust <06083>. 6 The foot <07272> shall tread <07429> it down, [even] the feet <07272> of the poor <06041>, [and] the steps <06471> of the needy <01800>. 7 The way <0734> of the just <06662> [is] uprightness <04339>: thou, most upright <03477>, dost weigh <06424> the path <04570> of the just <06662>. 8 Yea <0637>, in the way <0734> of thy judgments <04941>, O LORD <03068>, have we waited <06960> for thee; the desire <08378> of [our] soul <05315> [is] to thy name <08034>, and to the remembrance <02143> of thee. 9 With my soul <05315> have I desired <0183> thee in the night <03915>; yea <0637>, with my spirit <07307> within <07130> me will I seek <07836> thee early <07836>: for when <0834> thy judgments <04941> [are] in the earth <0776>, the inhabitants <03427> of the world <08398> will learn <03925> righteousness <06664>. 10 Let favour <02603> be shewed to the wicked <07563>, [yet] will he not learn <03925> righteousness <06664>: in the land <0776> of uprightness <05229> will he deal unjustly <05765>, and will not behold <07200> the majesty <01348> of the LORD <03068>. 11 LORD <03068>, [when] thy hand <03027> is lifted <05375> up, they will not see <02372>: [but] they shall see <02372>, and be ashamed <0954> for [their] envy <07068> at the people <05971>; yea <0637>, the fire <0784> of thine enemies <06862> shall devour <0398> them. 12. LORD <03068>, thou wilt ordain <08239> peace <07965> for us: for thou also <01571> hast wrought <06466> all <03605> our works <04639> in us. 13 O LORD <03068> our God <0430>, [other] lords <0113> beside <02108> thee have had dominion <01196> over us: [but] by thee only <0905> will we make mention <02142> of thy name <08034>. 14 [They are] dead <04191>, they shall not live <02421>; [they are] deceased <07496>, they shall not rise <06965>: therefore <03651> hast thou visited <06485> and destroyed <08045> them, and made all <03605> their memory <02143> to perish <06>. 15 Thou hast increased <03254> the nation <01471>, O LORD <03068>, thou hast increased <03254> the nation <01471>: thou art glorified <03513>: thou hadst removed <07368> [it] far <07368> [unto] all <03605> the ends <07097> of the earth <0776>. 16 LORD <03068>, in trouble <06862> have they visited <06485> thee, they poured <06694> out a prayer <03908> [when] thy chastening <04148> [was] upon them. 17 Like <03644> as a woman with child <02030>, [that] draweth near <07126> the time of her delivery <03205>, is in pain <02342>, [and] crieth <02199> out in her pangs <02256>; so <03651> have we been <01961> in thy sight <06440>, O LORD <03068>. 18 We have been with child <02029>, we have been in pain <02342>, we have as it were brought <03205> forth <03205> wind <07307>; we have not wrought <06213> any deliverance <03444> in the earth <0776>; neither <01077> have the inhabitants <03427> of the world <08398> fallen <05307>. 19 Thy dead <04191> [men] shall live <02421>, [together with] my dead <05038> body <05038> shall they arise <06965>. Awake <06974> and sing <07442>, ye that dwell <07931> in dust <06083>: for thy dew <02919> [is as] the dew <02919> of herbs <0219>, and the earth <0776> shall cast <05307> out the dead <07496>. 20. Come <03212>, my people <05971>, enter <0935> thou into thy chambers <02315>, and shut <05462> thy doors <01817> about <01157> thee: hide <02247> thyself as it were for a little <04592> moment <07281>, until <05704> the indignation <02195> be overpast <05674>. 21 For, behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> cometh <03318> out of his place <04725> to punish <06485> the inhabitants <03427> of the earth <0776> for their iniquity <05771>: the earth <0776> also shall disclose <01540> her blood <01818>, and shall no <03808> more <05750> cover <03680> her slain <02026>. Isaiah 27 1. In that day <03117> the LORD <03068> with his sore <07186> and great <01419> and strong <02389> sword <02719> shall punish <06485> leviathan <03882> the piercing <01281> serpent <05175>, even leviathan <03882> that crooked <06129> serpent <05175>; and he shall slay <02026> the dragon <08577> that [is] in the sea <03220>. 2 In that day <03117> sing <06031> ye unto her, A vineyard <03754> of red <02561> wine <02561>. 3 I the LORD <03068> do keep <05341> it; I will water <08248> it every moment <07281>: lest <06435> [any] hurt <06485> it, I will keep <05341> it night <03915> and day <03117>. 4 Fury <02534> [is] not in me: who <04310> would set <05414> the briers <08068> [and] thorns <07898> against me in battle <04421>? I would go <06585> through them, I would burn <06702> them together <03162>. 5 Or <0176> let him take <02388> hold <02388> of my strength <04581>, [that] he may make <06213> peace <07965> with me; [and] he shall make <06213> peace <07965> with me. 6 He shall cause them that come <0935> of Jacob <03290> to take <02388> root <08327>: Israel <03478> shall blossom <06692> and bud <06524>, and fill <04390> the face <06440> of the world <08398> with fruit <08570>. 7. Hath he smitten <05221> him, as he smote <04347> those that smote <05221> him? [or] is he slain <02026> according to the slaughter <02027> of them that are slain <02026> by him? 8 In measure <05432>, when it shooteth <07971> forth, thou wilt debate <07378> with it: he stayeth <01898> his rough <07186> wind <07307> in the day <03117> of the east <06921> wind. 9 By this <02063> therefore <03651> shall the iniquity <05771> of Jacob <03290> be purged <03722>; and this <02088> [is] all <03605> the fruit <06529> to take <05493> away <05493> his sin <02403>; when he maketh <07760> all <03605> the stones <068> of the altar <04196> as chalkstones that are beaten <05310> in sunder, the groves <0842> and images <02553> shall not stand <06965> up. 10 Yet the defenced <01219> city <05892> [shall be] desolate <0910>, [and] the habitation <05116> forsaken <07971>, and left <05800> like a wilderness <04057>: there <08033> shall the calf <05695> feed <07462>, and there <08033> shall he lie <07257> down <07257>, and consume <03615> the branches <05585> thereof. 11 When the boughs <07105> thereof are withered <03001>, they shall be broken <07665> off: the women <0802> come <0935>, [and] set them on fire <0215>: for it [is] a people <05971> of no <03808> understanding <0998>: therefore he that made <06213> them will not have mercy <07355> on them, and he that formed <03335> them will shew them no <03808> favour <02603>. 12 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] the LORD <03068> shall beat <02251> off from the channel <07641> of the river <05104> unto the stream <05158> of Egypt <04714>, and ye shall be gathered <03950> one <0259> by one <0259>, O ye children <01121> of Israel <03478>. 13 And it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, [that] the great <01419> trumpet <07782> shall be blown <08628>, and they shall come <0935> which were ready to perish <06> in the land <0776> of Assyria <0804>, and the outcasts <05080> in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, and shall worship <07812> the LORD <03068> in the holy <06944> mount <02022> at Jerusalem <03389>. Isaiah 28 1. Woe <01945> to the crown <05850> of pride <01348>, to the drunkards <07910> of Ephraim <0669>, whose glorious <06643> beauty <08597> [is] a fading <05034> flower <06731>, which <0834> [are] on the head <07218> of the fat <08081> valleys <01516> of them that are overcome <01986> with wine <03196>! 2 Behold <02009>, the Lord <0136> hath a mighty <02389> and strong <0533> one, [which] as a tempest <02230> of hail <01259> [and] a destroying <06986> storm <08178>, as a flood <02230> of mighty <03524> waters <04325> overflowing <07857>, shall cast <03240> down to the earth <0776> with the hand <03027>. 3 The crown <05850> of pride <01348>, the drunkards <07910> of Ephraim <0669>, shall be trodden <07429> under feet <07272>: 4 And the glorious <06643> beauty <08597>, which <0834> [is] on <05921> the head <07218> of the fat <08081> valley <01516>, shall be a fading <05034> flower <06733>, [and] as the hasty <01061> fruit <01061> before <02962> the summer <07019>; which <0834> [when] he that looketh <07200> upon it seeth <07200>, while it is yet <05750> in his hand <03709> he eateth <01104> it up. 5 In that day <03117> shall the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> be for a crown <05850> of glory <06643>, and for a diadem <06843> of beauty <08597>, unto the residue <07605> of his people <05971>, 6 And for a spirit <07307> of judgment <04941> to him that sitteth <03427> in judgment <04941>, and for strength <01369> to them that turn <07725> the battle <04421> to the gate <08179>. 7 But they also <01571> have erred <07686> through wine <03196>, and through strong drink <07941> are out of the way <08582>; the priest <03548> and the prophet <05030> have erred <07686> through strong drink <07941>, they are swallowed <01104> up of wine <03196>, they are out of the way <08582> through <04480> strong drink <07941>; they err <07686> in vision <07203>, they stumble <06328> [in] judgment <06417>. 8 For all <03605> tables <07979> are full <04390> of vomit <06892> [and] filthiness <06675>, [so that there is] no <01097> place <04725> [clean]. 9. Whom shall he teach <03384> knowledge <01844>? and whom shall he make to understand <0995> doctrine <08052>? [them that are] weaned <01580> from the milk <02461>, [and] drawn <06267> from the breasts <07699>. 10 For precept <06673> [must be] upon precept <06673>, precept <06673> upon precept <06673>; line <06957> upon line <06957>, line <06957> upon line <06957>; here <08033> a little <02191>, [and] there <08033> a little <02191>: 11 For with stammering <03934> lips <08193> and another <0312> tongue <03956> will he speak <01696> to this <02088> people <05971>. 12 To whom he said <0559>, This <02063> [is] the rest <04496> [wherewith <0834>] ye may cause the weary <05889> to rest <05117>; and this <02063> [is] the refreshing <04774>: yet they would <014> not hear <08085>. 13 But the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> was unto them precept <06673> upon precept <06673>, precept <06673> upon precept <06673>; line <06957> upon line <06957>, line <06957> upon line <06957>; here <08033> a little <02191>, [and] there <08033> a little <02191>; that they might go <03212>, and fall <03782> backward <0268>, and be broken <07665>, and snared <03369>, and taken <03920>. 14. Wherefore <03651> hear <08085> the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, ye scornful <03944> men <0582>, that rule <04910> this <02088> people <05971> which <0834> [is] in Jerusalem <03389>. 15 Because <03588> ye have said <0559>, We have made <03772> a covenant <01285> with death <04194>, and with hell <07585> are we at agreement <02374>; when <03588> the overflowing <07857> scourge <07885> shall pass <05674> through, it shall not come <0935> unto us: for we have made <07760> lies <03576> our refuge <04268>, and under falsehood <08267> have we hid <05641> ourselves: 16 Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, Behold <02005>, I lay in Zion <06726> for a foundation <03248> a stone <068>, a tried <0976> stone <068>, a precious <03368> corner <06438> [stone], a sure <03245> foundation <04143>: he that believeth <0539> shall not make haste <02363>. 17 Judgment <04941> also will I lay <07760> to the line <06957>, and righteousness <06666> to the plummet <04949>: and the hail <01259> shall sweep <03261> away the refuge <04268> of lies <03576>, and the waters <04325> shall overflow <07857> the hiding <05643> place. 18 And your covenant <01285> with death <04194> shall be disannulled <03722>, and your agreement <02380> with hell <07585> shall not stand <06965>; when <03588> the overflowing <07857> scourge <07752> shall pass <05674> through, then ye shall be trodden <04823> down by it. 19 From the time <01767> that it goeth <05674> forth <05674> it shall take <03947> you: for morning <01242> by morning <01242> shall it pass <05674> over <05674>, by day <03117> and by night <03915>: and it shall be a vexation <02113> only <07535> [to] understand <0995> the report <08052>. 20 For the bed <04702> is shorter <07114> than that [a man <0376>] can stretch <08311> himself [on it]: and the covering <04541> narrower <06887> than that he can wrap <03664> himself [in it]. 21 For the LORD <03068> shall rise <06965> up as [in] mount <02022> Perazim, he shall be wroth <07264> as [in] the valley <06010> of Gibeon <01391>, that he may do <06213> his work <04639>, his strange <02114> work <04639>; and bring <05647> to pass <05674> his act <05556>, his strange <05237> act <05556>. 22 Now <06258> therefore be ye not mockers <03887>, lest <06435> your bands <04147> be made strong <02388>: for I have heard <08085> from the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635> a consumption <03617>, even determined <02782> upon the whole <03605> earth <0776>. 23. Give ye ear <0238>, and hear <08085> my voice <06963>; hearken <07181>, and hear <08085> my speech <0565>. 24 Doth the plowman <02790> plow <02790> all <03605> day <03117> to sow <02232>? doth he open <06605> and break <07702> the clods <07702> of his ground <0127>? 25 When <0518> he hath made plain <07737> the face <06440> thereof, doth he not cast <06327> abroad <06327> the fitches <07100>, and scatter <02236> the cummin <03646>, and cast <07760> in the principal <07795> wheat <02406> and the appointed <05567> barley <08184> and the rie <03698> in their place <01367>? 26 For his God <0430> doth instruct <03256> him to discretion <04941>, [and] doth teach <03384> him. 27 For the fitches <07100> are not threshed <01758> with a threshing <02742> instrument, neither <01077> is a cart <05699> wheel <0212> turned <05437> about upon the cummin <03646>; but the fitches <07100> are beaten <02251> out with a staff <04294>, and the cummin <03646> with a rod <07626>. 28 Bread <03899> [corn] is bruised <01854>; because <03588> he will not ever <05331> be threshing <01758> it, nor break <02000> [it with] the wheel <01536> of his cart <05699>, nor <03808> bruise <01854> it [with] his horsemen <06571>. 29 This <02088> also <01571> cometh <03318> forth <03318> from the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, [which] is wonderful <06381> in counsel <06098>, [and] excellent <01431> in working <08454>. Isaiah 29 1. Woe <01945> to Ariel <0740>, to Ariel <0740>, the city <07151> [where] David <01732> dwelt <02583>! add <05595> ye year <08141> to year <08141>; let them kill <05362> sacrifices <02282>. 2 Yet I will distress <06693> Ariel <0740>, and there shall be heaviness <08386> and sorrow <0592>: and it shall be unto me as Ariel <0740>. 3 And I will camp <02583> against <05921> thee round <01754> about, and will lay siege <06696> against <05921> thee with a mount <04674>, and I will raise <06965> forts <04694> against <05921> thee. 4 And thou shalt be brought <08213> down <08213>, [and] shalt speak <01696> out of the ground <0776>, and thy speech <0565> shall be low <07817> out of the dust <06083>, and thy voice <06963> shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit <0178>, out of the ground <0776>, and thy speech <0565> shall whisper <06850> out of the dust <06083>. 5 Moreover the multitude <01995> of thy strangers <02114> shall be like small <01851> dust <080>, and the multitude <01995> of the terrible <06184> ones [shall be] as chaff <04671> that passeth <05674> away: yea, it shall be at an instant <06621> suddenly <06597>. 6 Thou shalt be visited <06485> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> with thunder <07482>, and with earthquake <07494>, and great <01419> noise <06963>, with storm <05492> and tempest <05591>, and the flame <03851> of devouring <0398> fire <0784>. 7 And the multitude <01995> of all <03605> the nations <01471> that fight <06633> against <05921> Ariel <0740>, even all <03605> that fight <06633> against her and her munition <04685>, and that distress <06693> her, shall be as a dream <02472> of a night <03915> vision <02377>. 8 It shall even be as when <0834> an hungry <07456> [man] dreameth <02492>, and, behold <02009>, he eateth <0398>; but he awaketh <06974>, and his soul <05315> is empty <07385>: or as when <0834> a thirsty <06771> man dreameth <02492>, and, behold <02009>, he drinketh <08354>; but he awaketh <06974>, and, behold <02009>, [he is] faint <05889>, and his soul <05315> hath appetite <08264>: so shall the multitude <01995> of all <03605> the nations <01471> be, that fight <06633> against <05921> mount <02022> Zion <06726>. 9. Stay <04102> yourselves, and wonder <08539>; cry <08173> ye out, and cry <08173>: they are drunken <07937>, but not with wine <03196>; they stagger <05128>, but not with strong drink <07941>. 10 For the LORD <03068> hath poured <05258> out upon you the spirit <07307> of deep <08639> sleep <08639>, and hath closed <06105> your eyes <05869>: the prophets <05030> and your rulers <07218>, the seers <02374> hath he covered <03680>. 11 And the vision <02380> of all <03605> is become <01961> unto you as the words <01697> of a book <05612> that is sealed <02856>, which <0834> [men] deliver <05414> to one that is learned, saying <0559>, Read <07121> this <02088>, I pray <04994> thee: and he saith <0559>, I cannot; for it [is] sealed <02856>: 12 And the book <05612> is delivered <05414> to him that is not learned, saying <0559>, Read <07121> this <02088>, I pray <04994> thee: and he saith <0559>, I am not learned. 13 Wherefore the Lord <0136> said <0559>, Forasmuch as this people <05971> draw near <05066> [me] with their mouth <06310>, and with their lips <08193> do honour <03513> me, but have removed <07368> their heart <03820> far <07368> from me, and their fear <03374> toward <0854> me is taught <03925> by the precept <04687> of men <0582>: 14 Therefore <03651>, behold <02005>, I will proceed <03254> to do a marvellous <06381> work <06381> among this <02088> people <05971>, [even] a marvellous <06381> work <06381> and a wonder <06382>: for the wisdom <02451> of their wise <02450> [men] shall perish <06>, and the understanding <0998> of their prudent <0995> [men] shall be hid <05641>. 15 Woe <01945> unto them that seek deep <06009> to hide <05641> their counsel <06098> from the LORD <03068>, and their works <04639> are in the dark <04285>, and they say <0559>, Who <04310> seeth <07200> us? and who <04310> knoweth <03045> us? 16 Surely <0518> your turning <02017> of things upside down shall be esteemed <02803> as the potter's <03335> clay <02563>: for shall the work <04639> say <0559> of him that made <06213> it, He made <06213> me not? or shall the thing framed <03336> say <0559> of him that framed <03335> it, He had no <03808> understanding <0995>? 17. [Is] it not yet <05750> a very <04213> little <04592> while, and Lebanon <03844> shall be turned <07725> into a fruitful <03759> field, and the fruitful <03759> field shall be esteemed <02803> as a forest <03293>? 18 And in that day <03117> shall the deaf <02795> hear <08085> the words <01697> of the book <05612>, and the eyes <05869> of the blind <05787> shall see <07200> out of obscurity <0652>, and out of darkness <02822>. 19 The meek <06035> also shall increase <03254> [their] joy <08057> in the LORD <03068>, and the poor <034> among men <0120> shall rejoice <01523> in the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 20 For the terrible <06184> one is brought <0656> to nought <0656>, and the scorner <03887> is consumed <03615>, and all <03605> that watch <08245> for iniquity <0205> are cut <03772> off: 21 That make a man <0120> an offender <02398> for a word <01697>, and lay a snare <06983> for him that reproveth <03198> in the gate <08179>, and turn <05186> aside <05186> the just <06662> for a thing of nought <08414>. 22 Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, who <0834> redeemed <06299> Abraham <085>, concerning <0413> the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, Jacob <03290> shall not now <06258> be ashamed <0954>, neither <03808> shall his face <06440> now <06258> wax pale <02357>. 23 But when <03588> he seeth <07200> his children <03206>, the work <04639> of mine hands <03027>, in the midst <07130> of him, they shall sanctify <06942> my name <08034>, and sanctify <06942> the Holy <06918> One of Jacob <03290>, and shall fear <06206> the God <0430> of Israel <03478>. 24 They also that erred <08582> in spirit <07307> shall come <03045> to understanding <0998>, and they that murmured <07279> shall learn <03925> doctrine <03948>. Isaiah 30 1. Woe <01945> to the rebellious <05637> children <01121>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, that take <06213> counsel <06098>, but not of me; and that cover <05258> with a covering <04541>, but not of my spirit <07307>, that they may add <05595> sin <02403> to sin <02403>: 2 That walk <01980> to go <03381> down <03381> into Egypt <04714>, and have not asked <07592> at my mouth <06310>; to strengthen <05810> themselves in the strength <04581> of Pharaoh <06547>, and to trust <02620> in the shadow <06738> of Egypt <04714>! 3 Therefore shall the strength <04581> of Pharaoh <06547> be your shame <01322>, and the trust <02622> in the shadow <06738> of Egypt <04714> [your] confusion <03639>. 4 For his princes <08269> were at Zoan <06814>, and his ambassadors <04397> came <05060> to Hanes <02609>. 5 They were all <03605> ashamed <0954> of a people <05971> [that] could not profit <03276> them, nor <03808> be an help <05828> nor <03808> profit <03276>, but a shame <01322>, and also <01571> a reproach <02781>. 6 The burden <04853> of the beasts <0929> of the south <05045>: into the land <0776> of trouble <06869> and anguish <06695>, from whence <01992> [come] the young <03833> and old <03918> lion <03918>, the viper <0660> and fiery <08314> flying <05774> serpent <08314>, they will carry <05375> their riches <02428> upon the shoulders <03802> of young asses <05895>, and their treasures <0214> upon the bunches <01707> of camels <01581>, to a people <05971> [that] shall not profit <03276> [them]. 7 For the Egyptians <04714> shall help <05826> in vain <01892>, and to no <07385> purpose <07385>: therefore <03651> have I cried <07121> concerning this <02063>, Their strength <07293> [is] to sit <07674> still <07673>. 8. Now <06258> go <0935>, write <03789> it before <0854> them in a table <03871>, and note <02710> it in a book <05612>, that it may be for the time <03117> to come <0314> for ever <05703> and ever <05769>: 9 That this <01931> [is] a rebellious <04805> people <05971>, lying <03586> children <01121>, children <01121> [that] will <014> not hear <08085> the law <08451> of the LORD <03068>: 10 Which <0834> say <0559> to the seers <07200>, See <07200> not; and to the prophets <02374>, Prophesy <02372> not unto us right <05229> things, speak <01696> unto us smooth <02513> things, prophesy <02372> deceits <04123>: 11 Get you out of the way <01870>, turn <05186> aside <05186> out of the path <0734>, cause the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478> to cease <07673> from before <06440> us. 12 Wherefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, Because <03282> ye despise <03988> this <02088> word <01697>, and trust <0982> in oppression <06233> and perverseness <03868>, and stay <08172> thereon <05921>: 13 Therefore <03651> this <02088> iniquity <05771> shall be to you as a breach <06556> ready to fall <05307>, swelling <01158> out in a high <07682> wall <02346>, whose <0834> breaking <07667> cometh <0935> suddenly <06597> at an instant <06621>. 14 And he shall break <07665> it as the breaking <07667> of the potters <03335>' vessel <05035> that is broken <03807> in pieces; he shall not spare <02550>: so that there shall not be found <04672> in the bursting <04386> of it a sherd <02789> to take <02846> fire <0784> from the hearth <03344>, or to take <02834> water <04325> [withal] out of the pit <01360>. 15 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>; In returning <07729> and rest <05183> shall ye be saved <03467>; in quietness <08252> and in confidence <0985> shall be your strength <01369>: and ye would <014> not. 16 But ye said <0559>, No <03808>; for we will flee <05127> upon horses <05483>; therefore shall ye flee <05127>: and, We will ride <07392> upon the swift <07031>; therefore shall they that pursue <07291> you be swift <07043>. 17 One <0259> thousand <0505> [shall flee] at <06440> the rebuke <01606> of one <0259>; at <06440> the rebuke <01606> of five <02568> shall ye flee <05127>: till ye be left <03498> as a beacon <08650> upon the top <07218> of a mountain <02022>, and as an ensign <05251> on <05921> an hill <01389>. 18. And therefore <03651> will the LORD <03068> wait <02442>, that he may be gracious <02603> unto you, and therefore <03651> will he be exalted <07311>, that he may have mercy <07355> upon you: for the LORD <03068> [is] a God <0430> of judgment <04941>: blessed <0835> [are] all <03605> they that wait <02442> for him. 19 For the people <05971> shall dwell <03427> in Zion <06726> at Jerusalem <03389>: thou shalt weep <01058> no <03808> more <01058>: he will be very gracious <02603> unto thee at the voice <06963> of thy cry <02201>; when he shall hear <08085> it, he will answer <06030> thee. 20 And [though] the Lord <0136> give <05414> you the bread <03899> of adversity <06862>, and the water <04325> of affliction <03905>, yet shall not thy teachers <03384> be removed <03670> into a corner <03671> any more <05750>, but thine eyes <05869> shall see <07200> thy teachers <03384>: 21 And thine ears <0241> shall hear <08085> a word <01697> behind <0310> thee, saying <0559>, This <02088> [is] the way <01870>, walk <03212> ye in it, when <03588> ye turn to the right <0541> hand <03027>, and when <03588> ye turn to the left <08041>. 22 Ye shall defile <02930> also the covering <06826> of thy graven <06456> images of silver <03701>, and the ornament <0642> of thy molten <04541> images of gold <02091>: thou shalt cast <02219> them away <02219> as a menstruous <01739> cloth; thou shalt say <0559> unto it, Get <03318> thee hence <03318>. 23 Then shall he give <05414> the rain <04306> of thy seed <02233>, that thou shalt sow <02232> the ground <0127> withal; and bread <03899> of the increase <08393> of the earth <0127>, and it shall be fat <01879> and plenteous <08082>: in that day <03117> shall thy cattle <04735> feed <07462> in large <07337> pastures <03733>. 24 The oxen <0504> likewise and the young asses <05895> that ear <05647> the ground <0127> shall eat <0398> clean <02548> provender <01098>, which <0834> hath been winnowed <02219> with the shovel <07371> and with the fan <04214>. 25 And there shall be upon every <03605> high <01364> mountain <02022>, and upon every <03605> high <04791> hill <01389>, rivers <06388> [and] streams <02988> of waters <04325> in the day <03117> of the great <07227> slaughter <02027>, when the towers <04026> fall <05307>. 26 Moreover the light <0216> of the moon <03842> shall be as the light <0216> of the sun <02535>, and the light <0216> of the sun <08121> shall be sevenfold <07659>, as the light <0216> of seven <07651> days <03117>, in the day <03117> that the LORD <03068> bindeth <02280> up the breach <07667> of his people <05971>, and healeth <07495> the stroke <04273> of their wound <04347>. 27. Behold <02009>, the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> cometh <0935> from far <04801>, burning <01197> [with] his anger <0639>, and the burden <04858> [thereof is] heavy <03514>: his lips <08193> are full <04390> of indignation <02195>, and his tongue <03956> as a devouring <0398> fire <0784>: 28 And his breath <07307>, as an overflowing <07857> stream <05158>, shall reach <05060> to the midst <02673> of the neck <06677>, to sift <05130> the nations <01471> with the sieve <05299> of vanity <07723>: and [there shall be] a bridle <07448> in the jaws <03895> of the people <05971>, causing [them] to err <08582>. 29 Ye shall have <01961> a song <07892>, as in the night <03915> [when] a holy <06942> solemnity <02282> is kept <06942>; and gladness <08057> of heart <03824>, as when one goeth <01980> with a pipe <02485> to come <0935> into the mountain <02022> of the LORD <03068>, to the mighty <06697> One of Israel <03478>. 30 And the LORD <03068> shall cause his glorious <01935> voice <06963> to be heard <08085>, and shall shew <07200> the lighting <05183> down <05183> of his arm <02220>, with the indignation <02197> of [his] anger <0639>, and [with] the flame <03851> of a devouring <0398> fire <0784>, [with] scattering <05311>, and tempest <02230>, and hailstones. 31 For through the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> shall the Assyrian <0804> be beaten <02865> down, [which] smote <05221> with a rod <07626>. 32 And [in] every <03605> place where the grounded <04145> staff <04294> shall pass <04569>, which <0834> the LORD <03068> shall lay <05117> upon him, [it] shall be with tabrets <08596> and harps <03658>: and in battles <04421> of shaking <08573> will he fight <03898> with it. 33 For Tophet <08613> [is] ordained <06186> of old <0865>; yea <01571>, for the king <04428> it is prepared <03559>; he hath made [it] deep <06009> [and] large <07337>: the pile <04071> thereof [is] fire <0784> and much <07235> wood <06086>; the breath <05397> of the LORD <03068>, like a stream <05158> of brimstone <01614>, doth kindle <01197> it. Isaiah 31 1. Woe <01945> to them that go <03381> down <03381> to Egypt <04714> for help <05833>; and stay <08172> on <05921> horses <05483>, and trust <0982> in chariots <07393>, because <03588> [they are] many <07227>; and in horsemen <06571>, because <03588> they are very <03966> strong <06105>; but they look <08159> not unto the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, neither <03808> seek <01875> the LORD <03068>! 2 Yet he also <01571> [is] wise <02450>, and will bring <0935> evil <07451>, and will not call <05493> back <05493> his words <01697>: but will arise <06965> against <05921> the house <01004> of the evildoers <07489>, and against <05921> the help <05833> of them that work <06213> iniquity <0205>. 3 Now the Egyptians <04714> [are] men <0120>, and not God <0410>; and their horses <05483> flesh <01320>, and not spirit <07307>. When the LORD <03068> shall stretch <05186> out his hand <03027>, both <08147> he that helpeth <05826> shall fall <03782>, and he that is holpen <05826> shall fall <05307> down, and they all <03605> shall fail <03615> together <03162>. 4 For thus <03541> hath the LORD <03068> spoken <0559> unto me, Like as the lion <0738> and the young <03715> lion <03715> roaring <01897> on <05921> his prey <02964>, when <0834> a multitude <04393> of shepherds <07462> is called <07121> forth against <05921> him, [he] will not be afraid <02865> of their voice <06963>, nor <03808> abase <06031> himself for the noise <01995> of them: so <03651> shall the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> come <03381> down <03381> to fight <06633> for mount <02022> Zion <06726>, and for the hill <01389> thereof. 5 As birds <06833> flying <05774>, so will the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> defend <01598> Jerusalem <03389>; defending <01598> also he will deliver <05337> [it; and] passing <05674> over he will preserve <04422> it. 6. Turn <07725> ye unto [him from] whom <0834> the children <01121> of Israel <03478> have deeply <06009> revolted <05627>. 7 For in that day <03117> every man <0376> shall cast <03988> away <03988> his idols <0457> of silver <03701>, and his idols <0457> of gold <02091>, which <0834> your own hands <03027> have made <06213> unto you [for] a sin <02399>. 8 Then shall the Assyrian <0804> fall <05307> with the sword <02719>, not of a mighty <0376> man <0376>; and the sword <02719>, not of a mean <0120> man <0120>, shall devour <0398> him: but he shall flee <05127> from the sword <02719>, and his young <0970> men shall be discomfited <04522>. 9 And he shall pass <05674> over <05674> to his strong <05553> hold <05553> for fear <04032>, and his princes <08269> shall be afraid <02865> of the ensign <05251>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, whose <0834> fire <0217> [is] in Zion <06726>, and his furnace <08574> in Jerusalem <03389>. Isaiah 32 1. Behold <02005>, a king <04428> shall reign <04427> in righteousness <06664>, and princes <08269> shall rule <08323> in judgment <04941>. 2 And a man <0376> shall be as an hiding <04224> place from the wind <07307>, and a covert <05643> from the tempest <02230>; as rivers <06388> of water <04325> in a dry <06724> place, as the shadow <06738> of a great <03515> rock <05553> in a weary <05889> land <0776>. 3 And the eyes <05869> of them that see <07200> shall not be dim <08159>, and the ears <0241> of them that hear <08085> shall hearken <07181>. 4 The heart <03824> also of the rash <04116> shall understand <0995> knowledge <01847>, and the tongue <03956> of the stammerers <05926> shall be ready <04116> to speak <01696> plainly <06703>. 5 The vile <05036> person shall be no <03808> more <05750> called <07121> liberal <05081>, nor <03808> the churl <03596> said <0559> [to be] bountiful <07771>. 6 For the vile <05036> person will speak <01696> villany <05039>, and his heart <03820> will work <06213> iniquity <0205>, to practise <06213> hypocrisy <02612>, and to utter <01696> error <08432> against <0413> the LORD <03068>, to make empty <07324> the soul <05315> of the hungry <07456>, and he will cause the drink <04945> of the thirsty <06771> to fail <02637>. 7 The instruments <03627> also of the churl <03596> [are] evil <07451>: he deviseth <03289> wicked <02154> devices <02154> to destroy <02254> the poor with lying <08267> words <0561>, even when the needy <034> speaketh <01696> right <04941>. 8 But the liberal <05081> deviseth <03289> liberal <05081> things; and by liberal <05081> things shall he stand <06965>. 9. Rise <06965> up, ye women <0802> that are at ease <07600>; hear <08085> my voice <06963>, ye careless <0982> daughters <01121>; give ear <0238> unto my speech <0565>. 10 Many days <03117> and years <08141> shall ye be troubled <07264>, ye careless <0982> women: for the vintage <01210> shall fail <03615>, the gathering <0625> shall not come <0935>. 11 Tremble <02729>, ye women that are at ease <07600>; be troubled <07264>, ye careless <0982> ones: strip <06584> you, and make you bare <06209>, and gird <02290> [sackcloth] upon [your] loins <02504>. 12 They shall lament <05594> for the teats <07699>, for the pleasant <02531> fields <07704>, for the fruitful <06509> vine <01612>. 13 Upon the land <0127> of my people <05971> shall come <05927> up thorns <06975> [and] briers <08068>; yea <03588>, upon all <03605> the houses <01004> of joy <04885> [in] the joyous <05947> city <07151>: 14 Because <03588> the palaces <0759> shall be forsaken <05203>; the multitude <01995> of the city <05892> shall be left <05800>; the forts <06076> and towers <0975> shall be for dens <04631> for ever <05769>, a joy <04885> of wild <06501> asses <06501>, a pasture <04829> of flocks <05739>; 15 Until <05704> the spirit <07307> be poured <06168> upon us from on high <04791>, and the wilderness <04057> be a fruitful <03759> field, and the fruitful <03759> field be counted <02803> for a forest <03293>. 16 Then judgment <04941> shall dwell <07931> in the wilderness <04057>, and righteousness <06666> remain <03427> in the fruitful <03759> field. 17 And the work <04639> of righteousness <06666> shall be peace <07965>; and the effect <05656> of righteousness <06666> quietness <08252> and assurance <0983> for ever <05769>. 18 And my people <05971> shall dwell <03427> in a peaceable <07965> habitation <05116>, and in sure <04009> dwellings <04908>, and in quiet <07600> resting <04496> places; 19 When it shall hail <01258>, coming <03381> down <03381> on the forest <03293>; and the city <05892> shall be low <08213> in a low <08219> place. 20 Blessed <0835> [are] ye that sow <02232> beside <05921> all <03605> waters <04325>, that send <07971> forth [thither] the feet <07272> of the ox <07794> and the ass <02543>. Isaiah 33 1. Woe <01945> to thee that spoilest <07703>, and thou [wast] not spoiled <07703>; and dealest treacherously <0898>, and they dealt not treacherously <0898> with thee! when thou shalt cease <08552> to spoil <07703>, thou shalt be spoiled <07703>; [and] when thou shalt make an end <05239> to deal treacherously <0898>, they shall deal treacherously <0898> with thee. 2 O LORD <03068>, be gracious <02603> unto us; we have waited <06960> for thee: be thou their arm <02220> every morning <01242>, our salvation <03444> also <0637> in the time <06256> of trouble <06869>. 3 At the noise <06963> of the tumult <01995> the people <05971> fled <05074>; at the lifting <07427> up of thyself the nations <01471> were scattered <05310>. 4 And your spoil <07998> shall be gathered <0622> [like] the gathering <0625> of the caterpiller <02625>: as the running <04944> to and fro of locusts <01357> shall he run <08264> upon them. 5 The LORD <03068> is exalted <07682>; for he dwelleth <07931> on high <04791>: he hath filled <04390> Zion <06726> with judgment <04941> and righteousness <06666>. 6 And wisdom <02451> and knowledge <01847> shall be the stability <0530> of thy times <06256>, [and] strength <02633> of salvation <03444>: the fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> [is] his treasure <0214>. 7 Behold <02005>, their valiant <0691> ones shall cry <06817> without <02351>: the ambassadors <04397> of peace <07965> shall weep <01058> bitterly <04751>. 8 The highways <04546> lie waste <08074>, the wayfaring man ceaseth <07673>: he hath broken <06565> the covenant <01285>, he hath despised <03988> the cities <05892>, he regardeth <02803> no <03808> man <0582>. 9 The earth <0776> mourneth <056> [and] languisheth <0535>: Lebanon <03844> is ashamed <02659> [and] hewn <07060> down: Sharon <08289> is like a wilderness <06160>; and Bashan <01316> and Carmel <03760> shake <05287> off [their fruits]. 10 Now <06258> will I rise <06965>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>; now <06258> will I be exalted <07311>; now <06258> will I lift <05375> up myself. 11 Ye shall conceive <02029> chaff <02842>, ye shall bring <03205> forth <03205> stubble <07179>: your breath <07307>, [as] fire <0784>, shall devour <0398> you. 12 And the people <05971> shall be [as] the burnings <04955> of lime <07875>: [as] thorns <06975> cut <03683> up shall they be burned <03341> in the fire <0784>. 13. Hear <08085>, ye [that are] far <07350> off, what <0834> I have done <06213>; and, ye [that are] near <07138>, acknowledge <03045> my might <01369>. 14 The sinners <02400> in Zion <06726> are afraid <06342>; fearfulness <07461> hath surprised <0270> the hypocrites. Who <04310> among us shall dwell <01481> with the devouring <0398> fire <0784>? who <04310> among us shall dwell <01481> with everlasting <05769> burnings <04168>? 15 He that walketh <01980> righteously <06666>, and speaketh <01696> uprightly <04339>; he that despiseth <03988> the gain <01214> of oppressions <04642>, that shaketh <05287> his hands <03709> from holding <08551> of bribes <07810>, that stoppeth <0331> his ears <0241> from hearing <08085> of blood <01818>, and shutteth <06105> his eyes <05869> from seeing <07200> evil <07451>; 16 He shall dwell <07931> on high <04791>: his place of defence <04869> [shall be] the munitions <04679> of rocks <05553>: bread <03899> shall be given <05414> him; his waters <04325> [shall be] sure <0539>. 17 Thine eyes <05869> shall see <02372> the king <04428> in his beauty <03308>: they shall behold <07200> the land <0776> that is very <04801> far <04801> off. 18 Thine heart <03820> shall meditate <01897> terror <0367>. Where <0346> [is] the scribe <05608>? where <0346> [is] the receiver <08254>? where <0346> [is] he that counted <05608> the towers <04026>? 19 Thou shalt not see <07200> a fierce <03267> people <05971>, a people <05971> of a deeper <06012> speech <08193> than thou canst perceive <08085>; of a stammering <03932> tongue <03956>, [that thou canst] not understand <0998>. 20 Look <02372> upon Zion <06726>, the city <07151> of our solemnities <04150>: thine eyes <05869> shall see <07200> Jerusalem <03389> a quiet <07600> habitation <05116>, a tabernacle <0168> [that] shall not be taken <06813> down; not one of the stakes <03489> thereof shall ever <05331> be removed <05265>, neither <01077> shall any <03605> of the cords <02256> thereof be broken <05423>. 21 But there <08033> the glorious <0117> LORD <03068> [will be] unto us a place <04725> of broad rivers <05103> [and] streams <02975>; wherein shall go <03212> no <01077> galley <0590> with oars <07885>, neither <03808> shall gallant <0117> ship <06716> pass <05674> thereby. 22 For the LORD <03068> [is] our judge <08199>, the LORD <03068> [is] our lawgiver <02710>, the LORD <03068> [is] our king <04428>; he will save <03467> us. 23 Thy tacklings <02256> are loosed <05203>; they could not well <03651> strengthen <02388> their mast <08650>, they could not spread <06566> the sail <05251>: then <0227> is the prey <05706> of a great <04766> spoil <07998> divided <02505>; the lame <06455> take <0962> the prey <0957>. 24 And the inhabitant <07934> shall not say <0559>, I am sick <02470>: the people <05971> that dwell <03427> therein [shall be] forgiven <05375> [their] iniquity <05771>. Isaiah 34 1. Come <07126> near <07126>, ye nations <01471>, to hear <08085>; and hearken <07181>, ye people <03816>: let the earth <0776> hear <08085>, and all <04393> that is therein <04393>; the world <08398>, and all <03605> things that come <06631> forth <06631> of it. 2 For the indignation <07110> of the LORD <03068> [is] upon all <03605> nations <01471>, and [his] fury <02534> upon all <03605> their armies <06635>: he hath utterly destroyed <02763> them, he hath delivered <05414> them to the slaughter <02875>. 3 Their slain <02491> also shall be cast <07993> out, and their stink <0889> shall come <05927> up out of their carcases <06297>, and the mountains <02022> shall be melted <04549> with their blood <01818>. 4 And all <03605> the host <06635> of heaven <08064> shall be dissolved <04743>, and the heavens <08064> shall be rolled <01556> together as a scroll <05612>: and all <03605> their host <06635> shall fall <05034> down, as the leaf <05929> falleth <05034> off from the vine <01612>, and as a falling <05034> [fig <08384>] from the fig <08384> tree. 5 For my sword <02719> shall be bathed <07301> in heaven <08064>: behold <02009>, it shall come <03381> down <03381> upon Idumea <0123>, and upon the people <05971> of my curse <02764>, to judgment <04941>. 6 The sword <02719> of the LORD <03068> is filled <04390> with blood <01818>, it is made fat <01878> with fatness <02459>, [and] with the blood <01818> of lambs <03733> and goats <06260>, with the fat <02459> of the kidneys <03629> of rams <0352>: for the LORD <03068> hath a sacrifice <02077> in Bozrah <01224>, and a great <01419> slaughter <02875> in the land <0776> of Idumea <0123>. 7 And the unicorns <07214> shall come <03381> down <03381> with them, and the bullocks <06499> with the bulls <047>; and their land <0776> shall be soaked <07301> with blood <01818>, and their dust <06083> made fat <01878> with fatness <02459>. 8 For [it is] the day <03117> of the LORD'S <03068> vengeance <05359>, [and] the year <08141> of recompences <07966> for the controversy <07379> of Zion <06726>. 9. And the streams <05158> thereof shall be turned <02015> into pitch <02203>, and the dust <06083> thereof into brimstone <01614>, and the land <0776> thereof shall become <01961> burning <01197> pitch <02203>. 10 It shall not be quenched <03518> night <03915> nor day <03119>; the smoke <06227> thereof shall go <05927> up for ever <05769>: from generation <01755> to generation <01755> it shall lie waste <02717>; none <0369> shall pass <05674> through it for ever <05331> and ever <05769>. 11 But the cormorant <06893> and the bittern <07090> shall possess <03423> it; the owl <03244> also and the raven <06158> shall dwell <07931> in it: and he shall stretch <05186> out upon it the line <06957> of confusion <05414>, and the stones <068> of emptiness <0922>. 12 They shall call <07121> the nobles <02715> thereof to the kingdom <04410>, but none <0369> [shall be] there <08033>, and all <03605> her princes <08269> shall be nothing <0657>. 13 And thorns <05518> shall come <05927> up in her palaces <0759>, nettles <07057> and brambles <02336> in the fortresses <04013> thereof: and it shall be an habitation <05116> of dragons <08577>, [and] a court <02691> for owls. 14 The wild <06728> beasts <06728> of the desert <06728> shall also meet <06298> with the wild <0338> beasts <0338> of the island <0338>, and the satyr <08163> shall cry <07121> to his fellow <07453>; the screech <03917> owl <03917> also <0389> shall rest <07280> there <08033>, and find <04672> for herself a place of rest <04494>. 15 There <08033> shall the great <07091> owl <07091> make her nest <07077>, and lay <04422>, and hatch <01234>, and gather <01716> under her shadow <06738>: there <08033> shall the vultures <01772> also <0389> be gathered <06908>, every <0802> one with her mate <07468>. 16 Seek <01875> ye out of the book <05612> of the LORD <03068>, and read <07121>: no <03808> one <0259> of these <02007> shall fail <05737>, none shall want <06485> her mate <07468>: for my mouth <06310> it hath commanded <06680>, and his spirit <07307> it hath gathered <06908> them. 17 And he hath cast <05307> the lot <01486> for them, and his hand <03027> hath divided <02505> it unto them by line <06957>: they shall possess <03423> it for ever <05769>, from generation <01755> to generation <01755> shall they dwell <07931> therein. Isaiah 35 1. The wilderness <04057> and the solitary <06723> place shall be glad <07996> for them; and the desert <06160> shall rejoice <01523>, and blossom <06524> as the rose <02261>. 2 It shall blossom <06524> abundantly <06524>, and rejoice <01523> even <0637> with joy <01525> and singing <07442>: the glory <03519> of Lebanon <03844> shall be given <05414> unto it, the excellency <01926> of Carmel <03760> and Sharon <08289>, they shall see <07200> the glory <03519> of the LORD <03068>, [and] the excellency <01926> of our God <0430>. 3 Strengthen <02388> ye the weak <07504> hands <03027>, and confirm <0553> the feeble <03782> knees <01290>. 4 Say <0559> to them [that are] of a fearful <04116> heart <03820>, Be strong <02388>, fear <03372> not: behold <02009>, your God <0430> will come <0935> [with] vengeance <05359>, [even] God <0430> [with] a recompence <01576>; he will come <0935> and save <03467> you. 5. Then <0227> the eyes <05869> of the blind <05787> shall be opened <06491>, and the ears <0241> of the deaf <02795> shall be unstopped <06605>. 6 Then <0227> shall the lame <06455> [man] leap <01801> as an hart <0354>, and the tongue <03956> of the dumb <0483> sing <07442>: for in the wilderness <04057> shall waters <04325> break <01234> out, and streams <05158> in the desert <06160>. 7 And the parched <08273> ground shall become <01961> a pool <098>, and the thirsty <06774> land springs <04002> of water <04325>: in the habitation <05116> of dragons <08577>, where each lay <07258>, [shall be] grass <02682> with reeds <07070> and rushes <01573>. 8 And an highway <04547> shall be there <08033>, and a way <01870>, and it shall be called <07121> The way <01870> of holiness <06944>; the unclean <02931> shall not pass <05674> over <05674> it; but it [shall be] for those: the wayfaring men <0582>, though fools <0191>, shall not err <08582> [therein]. 9 No <03808> lion <0738> shall be there <08033>, nor <01077> [any] ravenous <06530> beast <02416> shall go <05927> up thereon, it shall not be found <04672> there <08033>; but the redeemed <01350> shall walk <01980> [there]: 10 And the ransomed <06299> of the LORD <03068> shall return <07725>, and come <0935> to Zion <06726> with songs <07440> and everlasting <05769> joy <08057> upon their heads <07218>: they shall obtain <05381> joy <08057> and gladness <08057>, and sorrow <03015> and sighing <0585> shall flee <05127> away. Isaiah 36 1. Now it came <01961> to pass in the fourteenth year <08141> of king <04428> Hezekiah <02396>, [that] Sennacherib <05576> king <04428> of Assyria <0804> came <05927> up against <05921> all <03605> the defenced <01219> cities <05892> of Judah <03063>, and took <08610> them. 2 And the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> sent <07971> Rabshakeh <07262> from Lachish <03923> to Jerusalem <03389> unto king <04428> Hezekiah <02396> with a great <03515> army <02426>. And he stood <05975> by the conduit <08585> of the upper <05945> pool <01295> in the highway <04546> of the fuller's <03526> field <07704>. 3 Then came <03318> forth <03318> unto him Eliakim <0471>, Hilkiah's <02518> son <01121>, which <0834> was over <05921> the house <01004>, and Shebna <07644> the scribe <05608>, and Joah <03098>, Asaph's <0623> son <01121>, the recorder <02142>. 4 And Rabshakeh <07262> said <0559> unto them, Say <0559> ye now <04994> to Hezekiah <02396>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the great <01419> king <04428>, the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, What confidence <0986> [is] this <02088> wherein <0834> thou trustest <0982>? 5 I say <0559>, [sayest thou], (but [they are but] vain <08193> words <01697>) [I have] counsel <06098> and strength <01369> for war <04421>: now <06258> on <05921> whom <04310> dost thou trust <0982>, that thou rebellest <04775> against me? 6 Lo <02009>, thou trustest <0982> in the staff <04938> of this <02088> broken <07533> reed <07070>, on <05921> Egypt <04714>; whereon if a man <0376> lean <05564>, it will go <0935> into his hand <03709>, and pierce <05344> it: so <03651> [is] Pharaoh <06547> king <04428> of Egypt <04714> to all <03605> that trust <0982> in him. 7 But if thou say <0559> to me, We trust <0982> in the LORD <03068> our God <0430>: [is it] not he, whose high <01111> places and whose altars <04196> Hezekiah <02396> hath taken <05493> away <05493>, and said <0559> to Judah <03063> and to Jerusalem <03389>, Ye shall worship <07812> before <06440> this <02088> altar <04196>? 8 Now <06258> therefore give pledges <06148>, I pray <04994> thee, to my master <0113> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, and I will give <05414> thee two thousand <0505> horses <05483>, if <0518> thou be able <03201> on thy part to set <05414> riders <07392> upon them. 9 How <0349> then wilt thou turn <07725> away the face <06440> of one <0259> captain <06346> of the least <06996> of my master's <0113> servants <05650>, and put thy trust <0982> on <05921> Egypt <04714> for chariots <07393> and for horsemen <06571>? 10 And am I now <06258> come <05927> up without <01107> the LORD <03068> against <05921> this <02063> land <0776> to destroy <07843> it? the LORD <03068> said <0559> unto me, Go <05927> up against <0413> this <02063> land <0776>, and destroy <07843> it. 11. Then said <0559> Eliakim <0471> and Shebna <07644> and Joah <03098> unto Rabshakeh <07262>, Speak <01696>, I pray <04994> thee, unto thy servants <05650> in the Syrian <0762> language; for we understand <08085> [it]: and speak <01696> not to us in the Jews <03064>' language, in the ears <0241> of the people <05971> that [are] on <05921> the wall <02346>. 12 But Rabshakeh <07262> said <0559>, Hath my master <0113> sent <07971> me to thy master <0113> and to thee to speak <01696> these <0428> words <01697>? [hath he] not [sent me] to the men <0582> that sit <03427> upon the wall <02346>, that they may eat <0398> their own dung, and drink <08354> their own piss <07890> with you? 13 Then Rabshakeh <07262> stood <05975>, and cried <07121> with a loud <01419> voice <06963> in the Jews <03064>' language, and said <0559>, Hear <08085> ye the words <01697> of the great <01419> king <04428>, the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>. 14 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the king <04428>, Let not Hezekiah <02396> deceive <05377> you: for he shall not be able <03201> to deliver <05337> you. 15 Neither <0408> let Hezekiah <02396> make you trust <0982> in the LORD <03068>, saying <0559>, The LORD <03068> will surely deliver <05337> us: this <02063> city <05892> shall not be delivered <05414> into the hand <03027> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>. 16 Hearken <08085> not to Hezekiah <02396>: for thus <03541> saith <0559> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, Make <06213> [an agreement] with me [by] a present <01293>, and come <03318> out to me: and eat <0398> ye every <0376> one <0376> of his vine <01612>, and every <0376> one <0376> of his fig <08384> tree, and drink <08354> ye every <0376> one <0376> the waters <04325> of his own cistern <0953>; 17 Until <05704> I come <0935> and take <03947> you away to a land <0776> like your own land <0776>, a land <0776> of corn <01715> and wine <08492>, a land <0776> of bread <03899> and vineyards <03754>. 18 [Beware] lest <06435> Hezekiah <02396> persuade <05496> you, saying <0559>, The LORD <03068> will deliver <05337> us. Hath any <0376> of the gods <0430> of the nations <01471> delivered <05337> his land <0776> out of the hand <03027> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>? 19 Where <0346> [are] the gods <0430> of Hamath <02574> and Arphad <0774>? where <0346> [are] the gods <0430> of Sepharvaim <05617>? and have they delivered <05337> Samaria <08111> out of my hand <03027>? 20 Who <04310> [are they] among all <03605> the gods <0430> of these <0428> lands <0776>, that have delivered <05337> their land <0776> out of my hand <03027>, that the LORD <03068> should deliver <05337> Jerusalem <03389> out of my hand <03027>? 21 But they held <02790> their peace <02790>, and answered <06030> him not a word <01697>: for the king's <04428> commandment <04687> was, saying <0559>, Answer <06030> him not. 22 Then came <0935> Eliakim <0471>, the son <01121> of Hilkiah <02518>, that [was] over <05921> the household <01004>, and Shebna <07644> the scribe <05608>, and Joah <03098>, the son <01121> of Asaph <0623>, the recorder <02142>, to Hezekiah <02396> with [their] clothes <0899> rent <07167>, and told <05046> him the words <01697> of Rabshakeh <07262>. Isaiah 37 1. And it came <01961> to pass, when king <04428> Hezekiah <02396> heard <08085> [it], that he rent <07167> his clothes <0899>, and covered <03680> himself with sackcloth <08242>, and went <0935> into the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>. 2 And he sent <07971> Eliakim <0471>, who <0834> [was] over <05921> the household <01004>, and Shebna <07644> the scribe <05608>, and the elders <02205> of the priests <03548> covered <03680> with sackcloth <08242>, unto Isaiah <03470> the prophet <05030> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531>. 3 And they said <0559> unto him, Thus <03541> saith <0559> Hezekiah <02396>, This <02088> day <03117> [is] a day <03117> of trouble <06869>, and of rebuke <08433>, and of blasphemy <05007>: for the children <01121> are come <0935> to the birth <04866>, and [there is] not strength <03581> to bring <03205> forth <03205>. 4 It may be the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> will hear <08085> the words <01697> of Rabshakeh <07262>, whom <0834> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> his master <0113> hath sent <07971> to reproach <02778> the living <02416> God <0430>, and will reprove <03198> the words <01697> which <0834> the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> hath heard <08085>: wherefore lift <05375> up [thy] prayer <08605> for the remnant <07611> that is left <04672>. 5 So the servants <05650> of king <04428> Hezekiah <02396> came <0935> to Isaiah <03470>. 6 And Isaiah <03470> said <0559> unto them, Thus <03541> shall ye say <0559> unto your master <0113>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Be not afraid <03372> of the words <01697> that thou hast heard <08085>, wherewith <0834> the servants <05288> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> have blasphemed <01442> me. 7 Behold <02005>, I will send <07971> a blast <07307> upon him, and he shall hear <08085> a rumour <08052>, and return <07725> to his own land <0776>; and I will cause him to fall <05307> by the sword <02719> in his own land <0776>. 8. So Rabshakeh <07262> returned <07725>, and found <04672> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> warring <03898> against <05921> Libnah <03841>: for he had heard <08085> that he was departed <05265> from Lachish <03923>. 9 And he heard <08085> say <0559> concerning <05921> Tirhakah <08640> king <04428> of Ethiopia <03568>, He is come <03318> forth <03318> to make war <03898> with thee. And when he heard <08085> [it], he sent <07971> messengers <04397> to Hezekiah <02396>, saying <0559>, 10 Thus <03541> shall ye speak <0559> to Hezekiah <02396> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, saying <0559>, Let not thy God <0430>, in whom <0834> thou trustest <0982>, deceive <05377> thee, saying <0559>, Jerusalem <03389> shall not be given <05414> into the hand <03027> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>. 11 Behold <02009>, thou hast heard <08085> what <0834> the kings <04428> of Assyria <0804> have done <06213> to all <03605> lands <0776> by destroying <02763> them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered <05337>? 12 Have the gods <0430> of the nations <01471> delivered <05337> them which <0834> my fathers <01> have destroyed <07843>, [as] Gozan <01470>, and Haran <02771>, and Rezeph <07530>, and the children <01121> of Eden <05731> which <0834> [were] in Telassar <08515>? 13 Where <0346> [is] the king <04428> of Hamath <02574>, and the king <04428> of Arphad <0774>, and the king <04428> of the city <05892> of Sepharvaim <05617>, Hena <02012>, and Ivah <05755>? 14 And Hezekiah <02396> received <03947> the letter <05612> from the hand <03027> of the messengers <04397>, and read <07121> it: and Hezekiah <02396> went <05927> up unto the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and spread <06566> it before <06440> the LORD <03068>. 15 And Hezekiah <02396> prayed <06419> unto the LORD <03068>, saying <0559>, 16 O LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, God <0430> of Israel <03478>, that dwellest <03427> [between] the cherubims <03742>, thou [art] the God <0430>, [even] thou alone <0905>, of all <03605> the kingdoms <04467> of the earth <0776>: thou hast made <06213> heaven <08064> and earth <0776>. 17 Incline <05186> thine ear <0241>, O LORD <03068>, and hear <08085>; open <06491> thine eyes <05869>, O LORD <03068>, and see <07200>: and hear <08085> all <03605> the words <01697> of Sennacherib <05576>, which <0834> hath sent <07971> to reproach <02778> the living <02416> God <0430>. 18 Of a truth <0551>, LORD <03068>, the kings <04428> of Assyria <0804> have laid waste <02717> all <03605> the nations <0776>, and their countries <0776>, 19 And have cast <05414> their gods <0430> into the fire <0784>: for they [were] no <03808> gods <0430>, but the work <04639> of men's <0120> hands <03027>, wood <06086> and stone <068>: therefore they have destroyed <06> them. 20 Now <06258> therefore, O LORD <03068> our God <0430>, save <03467> us from his hand <03027>, that all <03605> the kingdoms <04467> of the earth <0776> may know <03045> that thou [art] the LORD <03068>, [even] thou only <0905>. 21. Then Isaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531> sent <07971> unto Hezekiah <02396>, saying <0559>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, Whereas <0834> thou hast prayed <06419> to me against <0413> Sennacherib <05576> king <04428> of Assyria <0804>: 22 This <02088> [is] the word <01697> which <0834> the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> concerning <05921> him; The virgin <01330>, the daughter <01323> of Zion <06726>, hath despised <0959> thee, [and] laughed <03932> thee to scorn; the daughter <01323> of Jerusalem <03389> hath shaken <05128> her head <07218> at thee. 23 Whom hast thou reproached <02778> and blasphemed <01442>? and against <05921> whom <04310> hast thou exalted <07311> [thy] voice <06963>, and lifted <05375> up thine eyes <05869> on high <04796>? [even] against <0413> the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 24 By thy servants <05650> hast thou reproached <02778> the Lord <0136>, and hast said <0559>, By the multitude <07230> of my chariots <07393> am I come <05927> up to the height <04791> of the mountains <02022>, to the sides <03411> of Lebanon <03844>; and I will cut <03772> down the tall <06967> cedars <0730> thereof, [and] the choice <04005> fir <01265> trees thereof: and I will enter <0935> into the height <04791> of his border <07093>, [and] the forest <03293> of his Carmel <03760>. 25 I have digged <05365>, and drunk <08354> water <04325>; and with the sole <03709> of my feet <06471> have I dried <02717> up all <03605> the rivers <02975> of the besieged <04693> places. 26 Hast thou not heard <08085> long <05704> ago <07350>, [how] I have done <06213> it; [and] of ancient <06924> times <03117>, that I have formed <03335> it? now <06258> have I brought <0935> it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste <07582> defenced <01219> cities <05892> [into] ruinous <05327> heaps <01530>. 27 Therefore their inhabitants <03427> [were] of small <07116> power <03027>, they were dismayed <02865> and confounded <0954>: they were [as] the grass <06212> of the field <07704>, and [as] the green <03419> herb <01877>, [as] the grass <02682> on the housetops <01406>, and [as corn] blasted <07709> before <06440> it be grown <06965> up. 28 But I know <03045> thy abode <03427>, and thy going <03318> out, and thy coming <0935> in, and thy rage <07264> against <0413> me. 29 Because <03282> thy rage <07264> against <0413> me, and thy tumult <07600>, is come <05927> up into mine ears <0241>, therefore will I put <07760> my hook <02397> in thy nose <0639>, and my bridle <04964> in thy lips <08193>, and I will turn <07725> thee back <07725> by the way <01870> by which <0834> thou camest <0935>. 30 And this <02088> [shall be] a sign <0226> unto thee, Ye shall eat <0398> [this] year <08141> such as groweth <05599> of itself; and the second <08145> year <08141> that which springeth <07823> of the same: and in the third <07992> year <08141> sow <02232> ye, and reap <07114>, and plant <05193> vineyards <03754>, and eat <0398> the fruit <06529> thereof. 31 And the remnant <07604> that is escaped <06413> of the house <01004> of Judah <03063> shall again take root <08328> downward <04295>, and bear <06213> fruit <06529> upward <04605>: 32 For out of Jerusalem <03389> shall go <03318> forth <03318> a remnant <07611>, and they that escape <06413> out of mount <02022> Zion <06726>: the zeal <07068> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> shall do <06213> this <02063>. 33 Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> concerning <0413> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, He shall not come <0935> into <0413> this <02063> city <05892>, nor <03808> shoot an arrow <02671> there <08033>, nor <03808> come <06923> before <06924> it with shields <04043>, nor <03808> cast <08210> a bank <05550> against <05921> it. 34 By the way <01870> that he came <0935>, by the same shall he return <07725>, and shall not come <0935> into <0413> this <02063> city <05892>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>. 35 For I will defend <01598> this <02063> city <05892> to save <03467> it for mine own sake, and for my servant <05650> David's <01732> sake <04616>. 36 Then the angel <04397> of the LORD <03068> went <03318> forth <03318>, and smote <05221> in the camp <04264> of the Assyrians <0804> a hundred <03967> and fourscore <08084> and five <02568> thousand <0505>: and when they arose <02224> early <07925> in the morning <01242>, behold <02009>, they [were] all <03605> dead <04191> corpses <06297>. 37 So Sennacherib <05576> king <04428> of Assyria <0804> departed <05265>, and went <03212> and returned <07725>, and dwelt <03427> at Nineveh <05210>. 38 And it came <01961> to pass, as he was worshipping <07812> in the house <01004> of Nisroch <05268> his god <0430>, that Adrammelech <0152> and Sharezer <08272> his sons <01121> smote <05221> him with the sword <02719>; and they escaped <04422> into the land <0776> of Armenia <0780>: and Esarhaddon <0634> his son <01121> reigned <04427> in his stead <08478>. Isaiah 38 1. In those <01992> days <03117> was Hezekiah <02396> sick <02470> unto death <04191>. And Isaiah <03470> the prophet <05030> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531> came <0935> unto him, and said <0559> unto him, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Set thine house <01004> in order <06680>: for thou shalt die <04191>, and not live <02421>. 2 Then Hezekiah <02396> turned <05437> his face <06440> toward <0413> the wall <07023>, and prayed <06419> unto the LORD <03068>, 3 And said <0559>, Remember <02142> now <04994>, O LORD <03068>, I beseech <0577> thee, how <0834> I have walked <01980> before <06440> thee in truth <0571> and with a perfect <08003> heart <03820>, and have done <06213> [that which is] good <02896> in thy sight <05869>. And Hezekiah <02396> wept <01058> sore <01419>. 4 Then came <01961> the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> to Isaiah <03470>, saying <0559>, 5 Go <01980>, and say <0559> to Hezekiah <02396>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of David <01732> thy father <01>, I have heard <08085> thy prayer <08605>, I have seen <07200> thy tears <01832>: behold <02005>, I will add <03254> unto thy days <03117> fifteen <06240> years <08141>. 6 And I will deliver <05337> thee and this <02063> city <05892> out of the hand <03709> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>: and I will defend <01598> this <02063> city <05892>. 7 And this <02088> [shall be] a sign <0226> unto thee from the LORD <03068>, that the LORD <03068> will do <06213> this <02088> thing <01697> that he hath spoken <01696>; 8 Behold <02005>, I will bring <07725> again <07725> the shadow <06738> of the degrees <04609>, which <0834> is gone <03381> down in the sun <08121> dial <04609> of Ahaz <0271>, ten <06235> degrees <04609> backward <0322>. So the sun <08121> returned <07725> ten <06235> degrees <04609>, by which degrees <04609> it was gone <03381> down. 9. The writing <04385> of Hezekiah <02396> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, when he had been sick <02470>, and was recovered <02421> of his sickness <02483>: 10 I said <0559> in the cutting <01824> off of my days <03117>, I shall go <03212> to the gates <08179> of the grave <07585>: I am deprived <06485> of the residue <03499> of my years <08141>. 11 I said <0559>, I shall not see <07200> the LORD <03050>, [even] the LORD <03050>, in the land <0776> of the living <02416>: I shall behold <07200> man <0120> no <03808> more with the inhabitants <03427> of the world <02309>. 12 Mine age <01755> is departed <05265>, and is removed <01556> from me as a shepherd's <07473> tent <0168>: I have cut <07088> off like a weaver <0707> my life <02416>: he will cut <01214> me off with pining <01803> sickness: from day <03117> [even] to night <03915> wilt thou make an end <07999> of me. 13 I reckoned <07737> till <05704> morning <01242>, [that], as a lion <0738>, so <03651> will he break <07665> all <03605> my bones <06106>: from day <03117> [even] to night <03915> wilt thou make an end <07999> of me. 14 Like a crane <05483> [or] a swallow <05693>, so <03651> did I chatter <06850>: I did mourn <01897> as a dove <03123>: mine eyes <05869> fail <01809> [with looking] upward <04791>: O LORD <03068>, I am oppressed <06234>; undertake <06148> for me. 15 What <04100> shall I say <01696>? he hath both spoken <0559> unto me, and himself <01931> hath done <06213> [it]: I shall go <01718> softly all <03605> my years <08141> in the bitterness <04751> of my soul <05315>. 16 O Lord <0136>, by these <05921> [things men] live <02421>, and in all <03605> these [things is] the life <02416> of my spirit <07307>: so wilt thou recover <02492> me, and make me to live <02421>. 17 Behold <02009>, for peace <07965> I had great bitterness <04843>: but thou hast in love <02836> to my soul <05315> [delivered it] from the pit <07845> of corruption <01097>: for thou hast cast <07993> all <03605> my sins <02399> behind <0310> thy back <01458>. 18 For the grave <07585> cannot <03808> praise <03034> thee, death <04194> can <03201> [not] celebrate <01984> thee: they that go <03381> down <03381> into the pit <0953> cannot <03808> hope <07663> for thy truth <0571>. 19 The living <02416>, the living <02416>, he shall praise <03034> thee, as I [do] this day <03117>: the father <01> to the children <01121> shall make known <03045> thy truth <0571>. 20 The LORD <03068> [was ready] to save <03467> me: therefore we will sing my songs <05058> to the stringed <05058> instruments all <03605> the days <03117> of our life <02416> in the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>. 21 For Isaiah <03470> had said <0559>, Let them take <05375> a lump <01690> of figs <08384>, and lay [it] for a plaister <04799> upon the boil <07822>, and he shall recover <02421>. 22 Hezekiah <02396> also had said <0559>, What <04100> [is] the sign <0226> that I shall go <05927> up to the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>? Isaiah 39 1. At that time <06256> Merodachbaladan <04757>, the son <01121> of Baladan <01081>, king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, sent <07971> letters <05612> and a present <04503> to Hezekiah <02396>: for he had heard <08085> that he had been sick <02470>, and was recovered <02388>. 2 And Hezekiah <02396> was glad <08056> of them, and shewed <07200> them the house <01004> of his precious <05238> things, the silver <03701>, and the gold <02091>, and the spices <01314>, and the precious <02896> ointment <08081>, and all <03605> the house <01004> of his armour <03627>, and all <03605> that was found <04672> in his treasures <0214>: there was nothing in his house <01004>, nor in all <03605> his dominion <04475>, that Hezekiah <02396> shewed <07200> them not. 3 Then came <0935> Isaiah <03470> the prophet <05030> unto king <04428> Hezekiah <02396>, and said <0559> unto him, What <04100> said <0559> these <0428> men <0582>? and from whence <0370> came <0935> they unto thee? And Hezekiah <02396> said <0559>, They are come <0935> from a far <07350> country <0776> unto me, [even] from Babylon <0894>. 4 Then said <0559> he, What <04100> have they seen <07200> in thine house <01004>? And Hezekiah <02396> answered <0559>, All <03605> that [is] in mine house <01004> have they seen <07200>: there is nothing among my treasures <0214> that I have not shewed <07200> them. 5. Then said <0559> Isaiah <03470> to Hezekiah <02396>, Hear <08085> the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>: 6 Behold <02009>, the days <03117> come <0935>, that all <03605> that [is] in thine house <01004>, and [that] which <0834> thy fathers <01> have laid up in store <0686> until <05704> this <02088> day <03117>, shall be carried <05375> to Babylon <0894>: nothing shall be left <03498>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>. 7 And of thy sons <01121> that shall issue <03318> from thee, which <0834> thou shalt beget <03205>, shall they take <03947> away; and they shall be eunuchs <05631> in the palace <01964> of the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>. 8 Then said <0559> Hezekiah <02396> to Isaiah <03470>, Good <01319> [is] the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> which <0834> thou hast spoken <01696>. He said <0559> moreover, For there shall be peace <07965> and truth <0571> in my days <03117>. Isaiah 40 1. Comfort <05162> ye, comfort <05162> ye my people <05971>, saith <0559> your God <0430>. 2 Speak <01696> ye comfortably to Jerusalem <03389>, and cry <07121> unto her, that her warfare <06635> is accomplished <04390>, that her iniquity <05771> is pardoned <07521>: for she hath received <03947> of the LORD'S <03068> hand <03027> double <03718> for all <03605> her sins <02403>. 3. The voice <06963> of him that crieth <07121> in the wilderness <04057>, Prepare <06437> ye the way <01870> of the LORD <03068>, make straight <03474> in the desert <06160> a highway <04546> for our God <0430>. 4 Every <03605> valley <01516> shall be exalted <05375>, and every <03605> mountain <02022> and hill <01389> shall be made low <08213>: and the crooked <06121> shall be made straight <04334>, and the rough <07406> places plain <01237>: 5 And the glory <03519> of the LORD <03068> shall be revealed <01540>, and all <03605> flesh <01320> shall see <07200> [it] together <03162>: for the mouth <06310> of the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> [it]. 6 The voice <06963> said <0559>, Cry <07121>. And he said <0559>, What <04100> shall I cry <07121>? All <03605> flesh <01320> [is] grass <02682>, and all <03605> the goodliness <02617> thereof [is] as the flower <06731> of the field <07704>: 7 The grass <02682> withereth <03001>, the flower <06731> fadeth <05034>: because <03588> the spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068> bloweth <05380> upon it: surely <0406> the people <05971> [is] grass <02682>. 8 The grass <02682> withereth <03001>, the flower <06731> fadeth <05034>: but the word <01697> of our God <0430> shall stand <06965> for ever <05769>. 9. O Zion <06726>, that bringest <01319> good <01319> tidings <01319>, get <05927> thee up into <05921> the high <01364> mountain <02022>; O Jerusalem <03389>, that bringest <01319> good tidings <01319>, lift <07311> up thy voice <06963> with strength <03581>; lift <07311> [it] up, be not afraid <03372>; say <0559> unto the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>, Behold <02009> your God <0430>! 10 Behold <02009>, the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> will come <0935> with strong <02389> [hand], and his arm <02220> shall rule <04910> for him: behold <02009>, his reward <07939> [is] with him, and his work <06468> before <06440> him. 11 He shall feed <07462> his flock <05739> like a shepherd <07462>: he shall gather <06908> the lambs <02922> with his arm <02220>, and carry <05375> [them] in his bosom <02436>, [and] shall gently lead <05095> those that are with young <05763>. 12. Who <04310> hath measured <04058> the waters <04325> in the hollow <08168> of his hand, and meted <08505> out heaven <08064> with the span <02239>, and comprehended <03557> the dust <06083> of the earth <0776> in a measure <07991>, and weighed <08254> the mountains <02022> in scales <06425>, and the hills <01389> in a balance <03976>? 13 Who <04310> hath directed <08505> the Spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068>, or [being] his counsellor <06098> hath taught <03045> him? 14 With whom <04310> took he counsel <03289>, and [who] instructed <0995> him, and taught <03925> him in the path <0734> of judgment <04941>, and taught <03925> him knowledge <01847>, and shewed <03045> to him the way <01870> of understanding <08394>? 15 Behold <02005>, the nations <01471> [are] as a drop <04752> of a bucket <01805>, and are counted <02803> as the small dust <07834> of the balance <03976>: behold <02005>, he taketh <05190> up the isles <0339> as a very <01851> little <01851> thing. 16 And Lebanon <03844> [is] not sufficient <01767> to burn <01197>, nor <0369> the beasts <02416> thereof sufficient <01767> for a burnt <05930> offering. 17 All <03605> nations <01471> before <06440> him [are] as nothing <0369>; and they are counted <02803> to him less <0657> than nothing, and vanity <08414>. 18. To whom <04310> then will ye liken <01819> God <0410>? or what <04100> likeness <01823> will ye compare <06186> unto him? 19 The workman <02796> melteth <05258> a graven <06459> image, and the goldsmith <06884> spreadeth <07554> it over with gold <02091>, and casteth <06884> silver <03701> chains <07569>. 20 He that [is] so impoverished <05533> that he hath no <03808> oblation <08641> chooseth <0977> a tree <06086> [that] will not rot <07537>; he seeketh <01245> unto him a cunning <02450> workman <02796> to prepare <03559> a graven <06459> image, [that] shall not be moved <04131>. 21 Have ye not known <03045>? have ye not heard <08085>? hath it not been told <05046> you from the beginning <07218>? have ye not understood <0995> from the foundations <04146> of the earth <0776>? 22 [It is] he that sitteth <03427> upon the circle <02329> of the earth <0776>, and the inhabitants <03427> thereof [are] as grasshoppers <02284>; that stretcheth <05186> out the heavens <08064> as a curtain <01852>, and spreadeth <04969> them out as a tent <0168> to dwell <03427> in: 23 That bringeth <05414> the princes <07336> to nothing; he maketh <06213> the judges <08199> of the earth <0776> as vanity <08414>. 24 Yea <0637>, they shall not be planted <05193>; yea <0637>, they shall not be sown <02232>: yea <0637>, their stock <01503> shall not take <03947> root <08327> in the earth <0776>: and he shall also <01571> blow <05398> upon them, and they shall wither <03001>, and the whirlwind <05591> shall take <05375> them away as stubble <07179>. 25 To whom <04310> then will ye liken <01819> me, or shall I be equal <07737>? saith <0559> the Holy <06918> One. 26 Lift <05375> up your eyes <05869> on high <04791>, and behold <07200> who <04310> hath created <01254> these <0428> [things], that bringeth <03318> out their host <06635> by number <04557>: he calleth <07121> them all <03605> by names <08034> by the greatness <07230> of his might <0202>, for that [he is] strong <0533> in power <03581>; not one <0376> faileth <05737>. 27. Why <04100> sayest <0559> thou, O Jacob <03290>, and speakest <01696>, O Israel <03478>, My way <01870> is hid <05641> from the LORD <03068>, and my judgment <04941> is passed <05674> over <05674> from my God <0430>? 28 Hast thou not known <03045>? hast thou not heard <08085>, [that] the everlasting <05769> God <0430>, the LORD <03068>, the Creator <01254> of the ends <07098> of the earth <0776>, fainteth <03286> not, neither <03808> is weary <03021>? [there is] no <0369> searching <02714> of his understanding <08394>. 29 He giveth <05414> power <03581> to the faint <03287>; and to [them that have] no <0369> might <0202> he increaseth <07235> strength <06109>. 30 Even the youths <05288> shall faint <03286> and be weary <03021>, and the young men shall utterly fall <03782>: 31 But they that wait <06960> upon the LORD <03068> shall renew <02498> [their] strength <03581>; they shall mount <05927> up with wings <083> as eagles <05404>; they shall run <07323>, and not be weary <03021>; [and] they shall walk <03212>, and not faint <03286>. Isaiah 41 1. Keep silence <02790> before <0413> me, O islands <0339>; and let the people <03816> renew <02498> [their] strength <03581>: let them come <05066> near <05066>; then <0227> let them speak <01696>: let us come <07126> near <07126> together <03162> to judgment <04941>. 2 Who <04310> raised <05782> up the righteous <06664> [man] from the east <04217>, called <07121> him to his foot <07272>, gave <05414> the nations <01471> before <06440> him, and made [him] rule <07287> over kings <04428>? he gave <05414> [them] as the dust <06083> to his sword <02719>, [and] as driven <05086> stubble <07179> to his bow <07198>. 3 He pursued <07291> them, [and] passed <05674> safely <07965>; [even] by the way <0734> [that] he had not gone <0935> with his feet <07272>. 4 Who <04310> hath wrought <06466> and done <06213> [it], calling <07121> the generations <01755> from the beginning <07218>? I the LORD <03068>, the first <07223>, and with the last <0314>; I [am] he. 5 The isles <0339> saw <07200> [it], and feared <03372>; the ends <07098> of the earth <0776> were afraid <02729>, drew near <07126>, and came <0857>. 6 They helped <05826> every <0376> one <0376> his neighbour <07453>; and [every <0376> one <0376>] said <0559> to his brother <0251>, Be of good <01390> courage <02388>. 7 So the carpenter <02796> encouraged <02388> the goldsmith <06884>, [and] he that smootheth <02505> [with] the hammer <06360> him that smote <01986> the anvil <06471>, saying <0559>, It [is] ready <02896> for the sodering <01694>: and he fastened <02388> it with nails <04548>, [that] it should not be moved <04131>. 8 But thou, Israel <03478>, [art] my servant <05650>, Jacob <03290> whom <0834> I have chosen <0977>, the seed <02233> of Abraham <085> my friend <0157>. 9 [Thou] whom <0834> I have taken <02388> from the ends <07098> of the earth <0776>, and called <07121> thee from the chief <0678> men thereof, and said <0559> unto thee, Thou [art] my servant <05650>; I have chosen <0977> thee, and not cast <03988> thee away. 10. Fear <03372> thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed <08159>; for I [am] thy God <0430>: I will strengthen <0553> thee; yea <0637>, I will help <05826> thee; yea <0637>, I will uphold <08551> thee with the right <03225> hand <03225> of my righteousness <06664>. 11 Behold <02005>, all <03605> they that were incensed <02734> against thee shall be ashamed <0954> and confounded <03637>: they shall be as nothing <0369>; and they that strive <07379> with thee shall perish <06>. 12 Thou shalt seek <01245> them, and shalt not find <04672> them, [even] them that contended <04695> with thee: they that war <04421> against thee shall be as nothing <0369>, and as a thing of nought <0657>. 13 For I the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> will hold <02388> thy right <03225> hand <03225>, saying <0559> unto thee, Fear <03372> not; I will help <05826> thee. 14 Fear <03372> not, thou worm <08438> Jacob <03290>, [and] ye men <04962> of Israel <03478>; I will help <05826> thee, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, and thy redeemer <01350>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 15 Behold <02009>, I will make <07760> thee a new <02319> sharp <02742> threshing <04173> instrument having <01167> teeth <06374>: thou shalt thresh <01758> the mountains <02022>, and beat <01854> [them] small <01854>, and shalt make <07760> the hills <01389> as chaff <04671>. 16 Thou shalt fan <02219> them, and the wind <07307> shall carry <05375> them away, and the whirlwind <05591> shall scatter <06327> them: and thou shalt rejoice <01523> in the LORD <03068>, [and] shalt glory <01984> in the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 17 [When] the poor <06041> and needy <034> seek <01245> water <04325>, and [there is] none <0369>, [and] their tongue <03956> faileth <05405> for thirst <06772>, I the LORD <03068> will hear <06030> them, I the God <0430> of Israel <03478> will not forsake <05800> them. 18 I will open <06605> rivers <05103> in high <08203> places, and fountains <04599> in the midst <08432> of the valleys <01237>: I will make <07760> the wilderness <04057> a pool <098> of water <04325>, and the dry <06723> land <0776> springs <04161> of water <04325>. 19 I will plant <05414> in the wilderness <04057> the cedar <0730>, the shittah <07848> tree <06086>, and the myrtle <01918>, and the oil <08081> tree <06086>; I will set <07760> in the desert <06160> the fir <01265> tree, [and] the pine <08410>, and the box <08391> tree together <03162>: 20 That they may see <07200>, and know <03045>, and consider <07760>, and understand <07919> together <03162>, that the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> hath done <06213> this <02063>, and the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478> hath created <01254> it. 21. Produce <07126> your cause <07379>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>; bring <05066> forth <05066> your strong <06110> [reasons], saith <0559> the King <04428> of Jacob <03290>. 22 Let them bring <05066> [them] forth <05066>, and shew <05046> us what shall happen <07136>: let them shew <05046> the former <07223> things, what <04100> they [be], that we may consider them, and know <03045> the latter <0319> end of them; or declare <08085> us things for to come <0935>. 23 Shew <05046> the things that are to come <0857> hereafter <0268>, that we may know <03045> that ye [are] gods <0430>: yea <0637>, do good <01319>, or do evil <07489>, that we may be dismayed <08159>, and behold <07200> [it] together <03162>. 24 Behold <02005>, ye [are] of nothing <0369>, and your work <06467> of nought <0659>: an abomination <08441> [is he that] chooseth <0977> you. 25 I have raised <05782> up [one] from the north <06828>, and he shall come <0857>: from the rising <04217> of the sun <08121> shall he call <07121> upon my name <08034>: and he shall come <0935> upon princes <05461> as [upon] morter <02563>, and as the potter <03335> treadeth <07429> clay <02916>. 26 Who <04310> hath declared <05046> from the beginning <07218>, that we may know <03045>? and beforetime <06440>, that we may say <0559>, [He is] righteous <06662>? yea <0637>, [there is] none <0369> that sheweth <05046>, yea <0637>, [there is] none <0369> that declareth <05046>, yea <0637>, [there is] none <0369> that heareth <08085> your words <0561>. 27 The first <07223> [shall say] to Zion <06726>, Behold <02009>, behold <02009> them: and I will give <05414> to Jerusalem <03389> one that bringeth <01319> good <01319> tidings <01319>. 28 For I beheld <07200>, and [there was] no <0369> man <0376>; even among them, and [there was] no <0369> counsellor <03289>, that, when I asked <07592> of them, could answer <07725> a word <01697>. 29 Behold <02005>, they [are] all <03605> vanity <0205>; their works <04639> [are] nothing <0657>: their molten <05262> images [are] wind <07307> and confusion <05414>. Isaiah 42 1. Behold <02005> my servant <05650>, whom I uphold <08551>; mine elect <0972>, [in whom] my soul <05315> delighteth <07521>; I have put <05414> my spirit <07307> upon him: he shall bring <03318> forth <03318> judgment <04941> to the Gentiles <01471>. 2 He shall not cry <06817>, nor <03808> lift <05375> up, nor <03808> cause his voice <06963> to be heard <08085> in the street <02351>. 3 A bruised <07533> reed <07070> shall he not break <07665>, and the smoking <03544> flax <06594> shall he not quench <03518>: he shall bring <03318> forth <03318> judgment <04941> unto truth <0571>. 4 He shall not fail <03543> nor <03808> be discouraged <07533>, till <05704> he have set <07760> judgment <04941> in the earth <0776>: and the isles <0339> shall wait <03176> for his law <08451>. 5. Thus <03541> saith <0559> God <0410> the LORD <03068>, he that created <01254> the heavens <08064>, and stretched <05186> them out; he that spread <07554> forth the earth <0776>, and that which cometh <06631> out of it; he that giveth <05414> breath <05397> unto the people <05971> upon it, and spirit <07307> to them that walk <01980> therein: 6 I the LORD <03068> have called <07121> thee in righteousness <06664>, and will hold <02388> thine hand <03027>, and will keep <05341> thee, and give <05414> thee for a covenant <01285> of the people <05971>, for a light <0216> of the Gentiles <01471>; 7 To open <06491> the blind <05787> eyes <05869>, to bring <03318> out the prisoners <0616> from the prison <04525>, [and] them that sit <03427> in darkness <02822> out of the prison <03608> house <01004>. 8 I [am] the LORD <03068>: that [is] my name <08034>: and my glory <03519> will I not give <05414> to another <0312>, neither my praise <08416> to graven <06456> images. 9 Behold <02009>, the former <07223> things are come <0935> to pass, and new <02319> things do I declare <05046>: before <02962> they spring <06779> forth I tell <08085> you of them. 10 Sing <07891> unto the LORD <03068> a new <02319> song <07892>, [and] his praise <08416> from the end <07097> of the earth <0776>, ye that go <03381> down <03381> to the sea <03220>, and all <04393> that is therein <04393>; the isles <0339>, and the inhabitants <03427> thereof. 11 Let the wilderness <04057> and the cities <05892> thereof lift <05375> up [their voice], the villages <02691> [that] Kedar <06938> doth inhabit <03427>: let the inhabitants <03427> of the rock <05553> sing <07442>, let them shout <06681> from the top <07218> of the mountains <02022>. 12 Let them give <07760> glory <03519> unto the LORD <03068>, and declare <05046> his praise <08416> in the islands <0339>. 13. The LORD <03068> shall go <03318> forth <03318> as a mighty <01368> man <0376>, he shall stir <05782> up jealousy <07068> like a man <0376> of war <04421>: he shall cry <07321>, yea <0637>, roar <06873>; he shall prevail <01396> against <05921> his enemies <0341>. 14 I have long <05769> time holden <02814> my peace <07814>; I have been <01961> still <02790>, [and] refrained <0662> myself: [now] will I cry <06463> like a travailing <03205> woman; I will destroy <05395> and devour <07602> at <03162> once <03162>. 15 I will make <07760> waste <02717> mountains <02022> and hills <01389>, and dry <03001> up all <03605> their herbs <06212>; and I will make <07760> the rivers <05103> islands <0339>, and I will dry <03001> up the pools <098>. 16 And I will bring <03212> the blind <05787> by a way <01870> [that] they knew <03045> not; I will lead <01869> them in paths <05410> [that] they have not known <03045>: I will make <07760> darkness <04285> light <0216> before <06440> them, and crooked <04625> things straight <04334>. These <0428> things <01697> will I do <06213> unto them, and not forsake <05800> them. 17 They shall be turned <05472> back <0268>, they shall be greatly ashamed <0954>, that trust <0982> in graven <06459> images, that say <0559> to the molten <04541> images, Ye [are] our gods <0430>. 18. Hear <08085>, ye deaf <02795>; and look <05027>, ye blind <05787>, that ye may see <07200>. 19 Who <04310> [is] blind <05787>, but my servant <05650>? or deaf <02795>, as my messenger <04397> [that] I sent <07971>? who <04310> [is] blind <05787> as [he that is] perfect <07999>, and blind <05787> as the LORD'S <03068> servant <05650>? 20 Seeing <07200> many <07227> things, but thou observest <08104> not; opening <06491> the ears <0241>, but he heareth <08085> not. 21 The LORD <03068> is well <02654> pleased <02654> for his righteousness <06664>' sake <04616>; he will magnify <01431> the law <08451>, and make [it] honourable <0142>. 22 But this <01931> [is] a people <05971> robbed <0962> and spoiled <08154>; [they are] all <03605> of them snared <06351> in holes <02356>, and they are hid <02244> in prison <03608> houses <01004>: they are for a prey <0957>, and none <0369> delivereth <05337>; for a spoil <04933>, and none <0369> saith <0559>, Restore <07725>. 23 Who <04310> among you will give ear <0238> to this <02063>? [who] will hearken <07181> and hear <08085> for the time <0268> to come? 24 Who <04310> gave <05414> Jacob <03290> for a spoil <04882>, and Israel <03478> to the robbers <0962>? did not the LORD <03068>, he against whom <02098> we have sinned <02398>? for they would <014> not walk <01980> in his ways <01870>, neither <03808> were they obedient <08085> unto his law <08451>. 25 Therefore he hath poured <08210> upon him the fury <02534> of his anger <0639>, and the strength <05807> of battle <04421>: and it hath set <07760> him on fire <03857> round <05439> about, yet he knew <03045> not; and it burned <01197> him, yet he laid <07760> [it] not to heart <03820>. Isaiah 43 1. But now <06258> thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> that created <01254> thee, O Jacob <03290>, and he that formed <03335> thee, O Israel <03478>, Fear <03372> not: for I have redeemed <01350> thee, I have called <07121> [thee] by thy name <08034>; thou [art] mine. 2 When <03588> thou passest <05674> through the waters <04325>, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers <05103>, they shall not overflow <07857> thee: when <03588> thou walkest <03212> through <01119> the fire <0784>, thou shalt not be burned <03554>; neither <03808> shall the flame <03852> kindle <01197> upon thee. 3 For I [am] the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, thy Saviour <03467>: I gave <05414> Egypt <04714> [for] thy ransom <03724>, Ethiopia <03568> and Seba <05434> for thee. 4 Since thou wast precious <03365> in my sight <05869>, thou hast been honourable <03513>, and I have loved <0157> thee: therefore will I give <05414> men <0120> for thee, and people <03816> for thy life <05315>. 5 Fear <03372> not: for I [am] with thee: I will bring <0935> thy seed <02233> from the east <04217>, and gather <06908> thee from the west <04628>; 6 I will say <0559> to the north <06828>, Give <05414> up; and to the south <08486>, Keep <03607> not back <03607>: bring <0935> my sons <01121> from far <07350>, and my daughters <01121> from the ends <07097> of the earth <0776>; 7 [Even] every <03605> one that is called <07121> by my name <08034>: for I have created <01254> him for my glory <03519>, I have formed <03335> him; yea <0637>, I have made <06213> him. 8. Bring <03318> forth <03318> the blind <05787> people <05971> that have <03426> eyes <05869>, and the deaf <02795> that have ears <0241>. 9 Let all <03605> the nations <01471> be gathered <06908> together <03162>, and let the people <03816> be assembled: who <04310> among them can declare <05046> this <02063>, and shew <08085> us former <07223> things? let them bring <05414> forth their witnesses <05707>, that they may be justified <06663>: or let them hear <08085>, and say <0559>, [It is] truth <0571>. 10 Ye [are] my witnesses <05707>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, and my servant <05650> whom <0834> I have chosen <0977>: that ye may know <03045> and believe <0539> me, and understand <0995> that I [am] he: before <06440> me there was no <03808> God <0410> formed <03335>, neither <03808> shall there be after <0310> me. 11 I, [even] I, [am] the LORD <03068>; and beside <01107> me [there is] no <0369> saviour <03467>. 12 I have declared <05046>, and have saved <03467>, and I have shewed <08085>, when [there was] no <0369> strange <02114> [god] among you: therefore ye [are] my witnesses <05707>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, that I [am] God <0410>. 13 Yea <01571>, before the day <03117> [was] I [am] he; and [there is] none <0369> that can deliver <05337> out of my hand <03027>: I will work <06466>, and who <04310> shall let <07725> it? 14. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, your redeemer <01350>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>; For your sake <04616> I have sent <07971> to Babylon <0894>, and have brought <03381> down <03381> all <03605> their nobles <01281>, and the Chaldeans <03778>, whose cry <07440> [is] in the ships <0591>. 15 I [am] the LORD <03068>, your Holy <06918> One, the creator <01254> of Israel <03478>, your King <04428>. 16 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, which maketh <05414> a way <01870> in the sea <03220>, and a path <05410> in the mighty <05794> waters <04325>; 17 Which bringeth <03318> forth <04161> the chariot <07393> and horse <05483>, the army <02428> and the power <05808>; they shall lie <07901> down <03381> together <03162>, they shall not rise <06965>: they are extinct <01846>, they are quenched <03518> as tow <06594>. 18 Remember <02142> ye not the former <07223> things, neither <0408> consider <0995> the things of old <06931>. 19 Behold <02005>, I will do <06213> a new <02319> thing; now <06258> it shall spring <06779> forth <06779>; shall ye not know <03045> it? I will even <0637> make <07760> a way <01870> in the wilderness <04057>, [and] rivers <05103> in the desert <03452>. 20 The beast <02416> of the field <07704> shall honour <03513> me, the dragons <08577> and the owls: because <03588> I give <05414> waters <04325> in the wilderness <04057>, [and] rivers <05103> in the desert <03452>, to give drink <08248> to my people <05971>, my chosen <0972>. 21 This <02098> people <05971> have I formed <03335> for myself; they shall shew <05608> forth my praise <08416>. 22. But thou hast not called <07121> upon me, O Jacob <03290>; but thou hast been weary <03021> of me, O Israel <03478>. 23 Thou hast not brought <0935> me the small cattle <07716> of thy burnt <05930> offerings; neither <03808> hast thou honoured <03513> me with thy sacrifices <02077>. I have not caused thee to serve <05647> with an offering <04503>, nor <03808> wearied <03021> thee with incense <03828>. 24 Thou hast bought <07069> me no <03808> sweet cane <07070> with money <03701>, neither <03808> hast thou filled <07301> me with the fat <02459> of thy sacrifices <02077>: but thou hast made me to serve <05647> with thy sins <02403>, thou hast wearied <03021> me with thine iniquities <05771>. 25 I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth <04229> out thy transgressions <06588> for mine own sake <04616>, and will not remember <02142> thy sins <02403>. 26 Put me in remembrance <02142>: let us plead <08199> together <03162>: declare <05608> thou, that thou mayest be justified <06663>. 27 Thy first <07223> father <01> hath sinned <02398>, and thy teachers <03887> have transgressed <06586> against me. 28 Therefore I have profaned <02490> the princes <08269> of the sanctuary <06944>, and have given <05414> Jacob <03290> to the curse <02764>, and Israel <03478> to reproaches <01421>. Isaiah 44 1. Yet now <06258> hear <08085>, O Jacob <03290> my servant <05650>; and Israel <03478>, whom I have chosen <0977>: 2 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> that made <06213> thee, and formed <03335> thee from the womb <0990>, [which] will help <05826> thee; Fear <03372> not, O Jacob <03290>, my servant <05650>; and thou, Jesurun <03484>, whom I have chosen <0977>. 3 For I will pour <03332> water <04325> upon him that is thirsty <06771>, and floods <05140> upon the dry <03004> ground: I will pour <03332> my spirit <07307> upon thy seed <02233>, and my blessing <01293> upon thine offspring <06631>: 4 And they shall spring <06779> up [as] among <0996> the grass <02682>, as willows <06155> by the water <04325> courses <02988>. 5 One shall say <0559>, I [am] the LORD'S <03068>; and another <02088> shall call <07121> [himself] by the name <08034> of Jacob <03290>; and another <02088> shall subscribe <03789> [with] his hand <03027> unto the LORD <03068>, and surname <03655> [himself] by the name <08034> of Israel <03478>. 6 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> the King <04428> of Israel <03478>, and his redeemer <01350> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>; I [am] the first <07223>, and I [am] the last <0314>; and beside <01107> me [there is] no <0369> God <0430>. 7 And who <04310>, as I, shall call <07121>, and shall declare <05046> it, and set it in order <06186> for me, since I appointed <07760> the ancient <05769> people <05971>? and the things that are coming <0857>, and shall come <0935>, let them shew <05046> unto them. 8 Fear <06342> ye not, neither <0408> be afraid <07297>: have not I told <08085> thee from that time <0227>, and have declared <05046> [it]? ye [are] even my witnesses <05707>. Is there a God <0433> beside <01107> me? yea, [there is] no <0369> God <06697>; I know <03045> not [any]. 9. They that make <03335> a graven <06459> image [are] all <03605> of them vanity <08414>; and their delectable <02530> things shall not profit <03276>; and they [are] their own witnesses <05707>; they see <07200> not, nor <01077> know <03045>; that they may be ashamed <0954>. 10 Who <04310> hath formed <03335> a god <0410>, or molten <05258> a graven <06459> image [that] is profitable <03276> for nothing <01115>? 11 Behold <02005>, all <03605> his fellows <02270> shall be ashamed <0954>: and the workmen <02796>, they [are] of men <0120>: let them all <03605> be gathered <06908> together, let them stand <05975> up; [yet] they shall fear <06342>, [and] they shall be ashamed <0954> together <03162>. 12 The smith with the tongs <04621> both worketh <06466> in the coals <06352>, and fashioneth <03335> it with hammers <04717>, and worketh <06466> it with the strength <03581> of his arms <02220>: yea <01571>, he is hungry <07456>, and his strength <03581> faileth <0369>: he drinketh <08354> no <03808> water <04325>, and is faint <03286>. 13 The carpenter <02796> stretcheth <05186> out [his] rule <04910>; he marketh <08388> it out with a line <08279>; he fitteth <06213> it with planes <04741>, and he marketh <08388> it out with the compass <04230>, and maketh <06213> it after the figure <08403> of a man <0376>, according to the beauty <08597> of a man <0120>; that it may remain <03427> in the house <01004>. 14 He heweth <03772> him down cedars <0730>, and taketh <03947> the cypress <08645> and the oak <0437>, which he strengtheneth <0553> for himself among the trees <06086> of the forest <03293>: he planteth <05192> an ash <0766>, and the rain <01653> doth nourish <01431> [it]. 15 Then shall it be for a man <0120> to burn <01197>: for he will take <03947> thereof, and warm <02552> himself; yea <0637>, he kindleth <05400> [it], and baketh <0644> bread <03899>; yea <0637>, he maketh <06466> a god <0410>, and worshippeth <07812> [it]; he maketh <06213> it a graven <06459> image, and falleth <05456> down <05456> thereto. 16 He burneth <08313> part <02677> thereof in the fire <0784>; with part <02677> thereof he eateth <0398> flesh <01320>; he roasteth <0740> roast <06748>, and is satisfied <07646>: yea <0637>, he warmeth <02552> [himself], and saith <0559>, Aha <0253>, I am warm <02552>, I have seen <07200> the fire <0217>: 17 And the residue <07611> thereof he maketh <06213> a god <0410>, [even] his graven <06459> image: he falleth <05456> down <05456> unto it, and worshippeth <07812> [it], and prayeth <06419> unto it, and saith <0559>, Deliver <05337> me; for thou [art] my god <0410>. 18 They have not known <03045> nor understood <0995>: for he hath shut <02902> their eyes <05869>, that they cannot see <07200>; [and] their hearts <03826>, that they cannot understand <07919>. 19 And none <03808> considereth <07725> in his heart <03820>, neither <03808> [is there] knowledge <01847> nor <03808> understanding <08394> to say <0559>, I have burned <08314> part <02677> of it in the fire <0784>; yea <0637>, also <0637> I have baked <0644> bread <03899> upon the coals <01513> thereof; I have roasted <06740> flesh <01320>, and eaten <0398> [it]: and shall I make <06213> the residue <03499> thereof an abomination <08441>? shall I fall <05456> down <05456> to the stock <0944> of a tree <06086>? 20 He feedeth <07462> on ashes <0665>: a deceived <02048> heart <03820> hath turned <05186> him aside <05186>, that he cannot <03808> deliver <05337> his soul <05315>, nor <03808> say <0559>, [Is there] not a lie <03576> in my right <03225> hand <03225>? 21. Remember <02142> these <0428>, O Jacob <03290> and Israel <03478>; for thou [art] my servant <05650>: I have formed <03335> thee; thou [art] my servant <05650>: O Israel <03478>, thou shalt not be forgotten <05382> of me. 22 I have blotted <04229> out, as a thick cloud <05645>, thy transgressions <06588>, and, as a cloud <06051>, thy sins <02403>: return <07725> unto me; for I have redeemed <01350> thee. 23 Sing <07442>, O ye heavens <08064>; for the LORD <03068> hath done <06213> [it]: shout <07321>, ye lower <08482> parts of the earth <0776>: break <06476> forth into singing <07440>, ye mountains <02022>, O forest <03293>, and every <03605> tree <06086> therein: for the LORD <03068> hath redeemed <01350> Jacob <03290>, and glorified <06286> himself in Israel <03478>. 24 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, thy redeemer <01350>, and he that formed <03335> thee from the womb <0990>, I [am] the LORD <03068> that maketh <06213> all <03605> [things]; that stretcheth <05186> forth the heavens <08064> alone <0905>; that spreadeth <07554> abroad <07554> the earth <0776> by myself; 25 That frustrateth <06565> the tokens <0226> of the liars <0907>, and maketh diviners <07080> mad <01984>; that turneth <07725> wise <02450> [men] backward <0268>, and maketh their knowledge <01847> foolish <05528>; 26 That confirmeth <06965> the word <01697> of his servant <05650>, and performeth <07999> the counsel <06098> of his messengers <04397>; that saith <0559> to Jerusalem <03389>, Thou shalt be inhabited <03427>; and to the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>, Ye shall be built <01129>, and I will raise <06965> up the decayed <02723> places thereof: 27 That saith <0559> to the deep <06683>, Be dry <02717>, and I will dry <03001> up thy rivers <05103>: 28 That saith <0559> of Cyrus <03566>, [He is] my shepherd <07462>, and shall perform <07999> all <03605> my pleasure <02656>: even saying <0559> to Jerusalem <03389>, Thou shalt be built <01129>; and to the temple <01964>, Thy foundation <03245> shall be laid. Isaiah 45 1. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> to his anointed <04899>, to Cyrus <03566>, whose <0834> right <03225> hand <03225> I have holden <02388>, to subdue <07286> nations <01471> before <06440> him; and I will loose <06605> the loins <04975> of kings <04428>, to open <06605> before <06440> him the two leaved <01817> gates <01817>; and the gates <08179> shall not be shut <05462>; 2 I will go <03212> before <06440> thee, and make the crooked <01921> places straight <03474>: I will break <07665> in pieces the gates <01817> of brass <05154>, and cut <01438> in sunder the bars <01280> of iron <01270>: 3 And I will give <05414> thee the treasures <0214> of darkness <02822>, and hidden <04301> riches <04301> of secret <04565> places, that thou mayest know <03045> that I, the LORD <03068>, which call <07121> [thee] by thy name <08034>, [am] the God <0430> of Israel <03478>. 4 For Jacob <03290> my servant's <05650> sake <04616>, and Israel <03478> mine elect <0972>, I have even called <07121> thee by thy name <08034>: I have surnamed <03655> thee, though thou hast not known <03045> me. 5. I [am] the LORD <03068>, and [there is] none <0369> else <05750>, [there is] no <0369> God <0430> beside <02108> me: I girded <0247> thee, though thou hast not known <03045> me: 6 That they may know <03045> from the rising <04217> of the sun <08121>, and from the west <04628>, that [there is] none <0657> beside <01107> me. I [am] the LORD <03068>, and [there is] none <0369> else <05750>. 7 I form <03335> the light <0216>, and create <01254> darkness <02822>: I make <06213> peace <07965>, and create <01254> evil <07451>: I the LORD <03068> do <06213> all these <0428> [things]. 8 Drop <07491> down, ye heavens <08064>, from above <04605>, and let the skies <07834> pour <05140> down righteousness <06664>: let the earth <0776> open <06605>, and let them bring <06509> forth <06509> salvation <03468>, and let righteousness <06666> spring <06779> up together <03162>; I the LORD <03068> have created <01254> it. 9 Woe <01945> unto him that striveth <07378> with his Maker <03335>! [Let] the potsherd <02789> [strive] with the potsherds <02789> of the earth <0127>. Shall the clay <02563> say <0559> to him that fashioneth <03335> it, What <04100> makest <06213> thou? or thy work <06467>, He hath no <0369> hands <03027>? 10 Woe <01945> unto him that saith <0559> unto [his] father <01>, What <04100> begettest <03205> thou? or to the woman <0802>, What <04100> hast thou brought <02342> forth <02342>? 11. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, and his Maker <03335>, Ask <07592> me of things to come <0857> concerning <05921> my sons <01121>, and concerning <05921> the work <06467> of my hands <03027> command <06680> ye me. 12 I have made <06213> the earth <0776>, and created <01254> man <0120> upon it: I, [even] my hands <03027>, have stretched <05186> out the heavens <08064>, and all <03605> their host <06635> have I commanded <06680>. 13 I have raised <05782> him up in righteousness <06664>, and I will direct <03474> all <03605> his ways <01870>: he shall build <01129> my city <05892>, and he shall let go <07971> my captives <01546>, not for price <04242> nor <03808> reward <07810>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>. 14 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, The labour <03018> of Egypt <04714>, and merchandise <05505> of Ethiopia <03568> and of the Sabeans <05436>, men <0582> of stature <04060>, shall come <05674> over <05674> unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come <03212> after <0310> thee; in chains <02131> they shall come <05674> over <05674>, and they shall fall <07812> down <07812> unto thee, they shall make supplication <06419> unto thee, [saying], Surely <0389> God <0410> [is] in thee; and [there is] none <0369> else <05750>, [there is] no <0657> God <0430>. 15 Verily <0403> thou [art] a God <0410> that hidest <05641> thyself, O God <0430> of Israel <03478>, the Saviour <03467>. 16 They shall be ashamed <0954>, and also <01571> confounded <03637>, all <03605> of them: they shall go <01980> to confusion <03639> together <03162> [that are] makers <02796> of idols <06736>. 17 [But] Israel <03478> shall be saved <03467> in the LORD <03068> with an everlasting <05769> salvation <08668>: ye shall not be ashamed <0954> nor <03808> confounded <03637> world <05769> without end. 18 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> that created <01254> the heavens <08064>; God <0430> himself <01931> that formed <03335> the earth <0776> and made <06213> it; he hath established <03559> it, he created <01254> it not in vain <08414>, he formed <03335> it to be inhabited <03427>: I [am] the LORD <03068>; and [there is] none <0369> else <05750>. 19 I have not spoken <01696> in secret <05643>, in a dark <02822> place <04725> of the earth <0776>: I said <0559> not unto the seed <02233> of Jacob <03290>, Seek <01245> ye me in vain <08414>: I the LORD <03068> speak <01696> righteousness <06664>, I declare <05046> things that are right <04339>. 20. Assemble <06908> yourselves and come <0935>; draw near <05066> together <03162>, ye [that are] escaped <06412> of the nations <01471>: they have no <03808> knowledge <03045> that set <05375> up the wood <06086> of their graven <06459> image, and pray <06419> unto a god <0410> [that] cannot <03808> save <03467>. 21 Tell <05046> ye, and bring <05066> [them] near <05066>; yea <0637>, let them take counsel <03289> together <03162>: who <04310> hath declared <05046> this <02063> from ancient <06924> time? [who] hath told <05046> it from that time <0227>? [have] not I the LORD <03068>? and [there is] no <0369> God <0430> else <05750> beside <01107> me; a just <06662> God <0410> and a Saviour <03467>; [there is] none <0369> beside <02108> me. 22 Look <06437> unto me, and be ye saved <03467>, all the ends <0657> of the earth <0776>: for I [am] God <0410>, and [there is] none <0369> else <05750>. 23 I have sworn <07650> by myself, the word <01697> is gone <03318> out of my mouth <06310> [in] righteousness <06666>, and shall not return <07725>, That unto me every <03605> knee <01290> shall bow <03766>, every <03605> tongue <03956> shall swear <07650>. 24 Surely, shall [one] say <0559>, in the LORD <03068> have I righteousness <06666> and strength <05797>: [even] to him shall [men] come <0935>; and all <03605> that are incensed <02734> against him shall be ashamed <0954>. 25 In the LORD <03068> shall all <03605> the seed <02233> of Israel <03478> be justified <06663>, and shall glory <01984>. Isaiah 46 1. Bel <01078> boweth <03766> down <03766>, Nebo <05015> stoopeth <07164>, their idols <06091> were upon the beasts <02416>, and upon the cattle <0929>: your carriages <05385> [were] heavy loaden <06006>; [they are] a burden <04853> to the weary <05889> [beast]. 2 They stoop <07164>, they bow <03766> down <03766> together <03162>; they could <03201> not deliver <04422> the burden <04853>, but themselves <05315> are gone <01980> into captivity <07628>. 3 Hearken <08085> unto me, O house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, and all <03605> the remnant <07611> of the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, which are borne <06006> [by me] from the belly <0990>, which are carried <05375> from the womb <07356>: 4 And [even] to [your] old <02209> age <02209> I [am] he; and [even] to hoar <07872> hairs will I carry <05445> [you]: I have made <06213>, and I will bear <05375>; even I will carry <05445>, and will deliver <04422> [you]. 5. To whom <04310> will ye liken <01819> me, and make [me] equal <07737>, and compare <04911> me, that we may be like <01819>? 6 They lavish <02107> gold <02091> out of the bag <03599>, and weigh <08254> silver <03701> in the balance <07070>, [and] hire <07936> a goldsmith <06884>; and he maketh <06213> it a god <0410>: they fall <05456> down <05456>, yea <0637>, they worship <07812>. 7 They bear <05375> him upon the shoulder <03802>, they carry <05445> him, and set <03240> him in his place <08478>, and he standeth <05975>; from his place <04725> shall he not remove <04185>: yea <0637>, [one] shall cry <06817> unto him, yet can he not answer <06030>, nor <03808> save <03467> him out of his trouble <06869>. 8 Remember <02142> this <02063>, and shew yourselves men <0376>: bring <07725> [it] again <07725> to mind <03820>, O ye transgressors <06586>. 9 Remember <02142> the former <07223> things of old <05769>: for I [am] God <0410>, and [there is] none <0369> else <05750>; [I am] God <0430>, and [there is] none <0657> like <03644> me, 10 Declaring <05046> the end <0319> from the beginning <07225>, and from ancient <06924> times [the things] that are not [yet] done <06213>, saying <0559>, My counsel <06098> shall stand <06965>, and I will do <06213> all <03605> my pleasure <02656>: 11 Calling <07121> a ravenous <05861> bird <05861> from the east <04217>, the man <0376> that executeth my counsel <06098> from a far <04801> country <0776>: yea <0637>, I have spoken <01696> [it], I will also <0637> bring <0935> it to pass; I have purposed <03335> [it], I will also <0637> do <06213> it. 12 Hearken <08085> unto me, ye stouthearted, that [are] far <07350> from righteousness <06666>: 13 I bring <07126> near <07126> my righteousness <06666>; it shall not be far <07368> off, and my salvation <08668> shall not tarry <0309>: and I will place <05414> salvation <08668> in Zion <06726> for Israel <03478> my glory <08597>. Isaiah 47 1. Come <03381> down <03381>, and sit <03427> in the dust <06083>, O virgin <01330> daughter <01323> of Babylon <0894>, sit <03427> on <05921> the ground <0776>: [there is] no <0369> throne <03678>, O daughter <01323> of the Chaldeans <03778>: for thou shalt no <03808> more <03254> be called <07121> tender <07390> and delicate <06028>. 2 Take <03947> the millstones <07347>, and grind <02912> meal <07058>: uncover <01540> thy locks <06777>, make bare <02834> the leg <07640>, uncover <01540> the thigh <07785>, pass <05674> over <05674> the rivers <05103>. 3 Thy nakedness <06172> shall be uncovered <01540>, yea <01571>, thy shame <02781> shall be seen <07200>: I will take <03947> vengeance <05359>, and I will not meet <06293> [thee as] a man <0120>. 4 [As for] our redeemer <01350>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [is] his name <08034>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 5 Sit <03427> thou silent <01748>, and get <0935> thee into darkness <02822>, O daughter <01323> of the Chaldeans <03778>: for thou shalt no <03808> more <03254> be called <07121>, The lady <01404> of kingdoms <04467>. 6 I was wroth <07107> with my people <05971>, I have polluted <02490> mine inheritance <05159>, and given <05414> them into thine hand <03027>: thou didst shew <07760> them no <03808> mercy <07356>; upon the ancient <02204> hast thou very <03966> heavily <03513> laid thy yoke <05923>. 7. And thou saidst <0559>, I shall be a lady <01404> for ever <05769>: [so <05704>] that thou didst not lay <07760> these <0428> [things] to thy heart <03820>, neither <03808> didst remember <02142> the latter <0319> end of it. 8 Therefore hear <08085> now <06258> this <02063>, [thou that art] given to pleasures <05719>, that dwellest <03427> carelessly <0983>, that sayest <0559> in thine heart <03824>, I [am], and none <0657> else <05750> beside <0657> me; I shall not sit <03427> [as] a widow <0490>, neither <03808> shall I know <03045> the loss <07921> of children: 9 But these <0428> two <08147> [things] shall come <0935> to thee in a moment <07281> in one <0259> day <03117>, the loss <07921> of children, and widowhood <0489>: they shall come <0935> upon thee in their perfection <08537> for the multitude <07230> of thy sorceries <03785>, [and] for the great <03966> abundance <06109> of thine enchantments <02267>. 10 For thou hast trusted <0982> in thy wickedness <07451>: thou hast said <0559>, None <0369> seeth <07200> me. Thy wisdom <02451> and thy knowledge <01847>, it hath perverted <07725> thee; and thou hast said <0559> in thine heart <03820>, I [am], and none <0657> else <05750> beside <0657> me. 11 Therefore shall evil <07451> come <0935> upon thee; thou shalt not know <03045> from whence <0370> it riseth <07837>: and mischief <01943> shall fall <05307> upon thee; thou shalt not be able <03201> to put <03722> it off: and desolation <07722> shall come <0935> upon thee suddenly <06597>, [which] thou shalt not know <03045>. 12 Stand <05975> now <04994> with thine enchantments <02267>, and with the multitude <07230> of thy sorceries <03785>, wherein <0834> thou hast laboured <03021> from thy youth <05271>; if <0194> so be thou shalt be able <03201> to profit <03276>, if <0194> so be thou mayest prevail <06206>. 13 Thou art wearied <03811> in the multitude <07230> of thy counsels <06098>. Let now <04994> the astrologers <01895>, the stargazers, the monthly <02320> prognosticators <03045>, stand <05975> up, and save <03467> thee from [these things] that shall come <0935> upon thee. 14 Behold <02009>, they shall be as stubble <07179>; the fire <0784> shall burn <08313> them; they shall not deliver <05337> themselves <05315> from the power <03027> of the flame <03852>: [there shall] not [be] a coal <01513> to warm <02552> at, [nor] fire <0217> to sit <03427> before <05048> it. 15 Thus <03651> shall they be unto thee with whom <0834> thou hast laboured <03021>, [even] thy merchants <05503>, from thy youth <05271>: they shall wander <08582> every <0376> one <0376> to his quarter <05676>; none <0369> shall save <03467> thee. Isaiah 48 1. Hear <08085> ye this <02063>, O house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, which are called <07121> by the name <08034> of Israel <03478>, and are come <03318> forth <03318> out of the waters <04325> of Judah <03063>, which swear <07650> by the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>, and make mention <02142> of the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, [but] not in truth <0571>, nor <03808> in righteousness <06666>. 2 For they call <07121> themselves of the holy <06944> city <05892>, and stay <05564> themselves upon the God <0430> of Israel <03478>; The LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [is] his name <08034>. 3 I have declared <05046> the former <07223> things from the beginning <0227>; and they went <03318> forth <03318> out of my mouth <06310>, and I shewed <08085> them; I did <06213> [them] suddenly <06597>, and they came <0935> to pass. 4 Because I knew <01847> that thou [art] obstinate <07186>, and thy neck <06203> [is] an iron <01270> sinew <01517>, and thy brow <04696> brass <05154>; 5 I have even from the beginning <0227> declared <05046> [it] to thee; before <02962> it came <0935> to pass I shewed <08085> [it] thee: lest <06435> thou shouldest say <0559>, Mine idol <06090> hath done <06213> them, and my graven <06459> image, and my molten <05262> image, hath commanded <06680> them. 6 Thou hast heard <08085>, see <02372> all <03605> this; and will not ye declare <05046> [it]? I have shewed <08085> thee new <02319> things from this time <06258>, even hidden <05341> things, and thou didst not know <03045> them. 7 They are created <01254> now <06258>, and not from the beginning <0227>; even before <06440> the day <03117> when thou heardest <08085> them not; lest <06435> thou shouldest say <0559>, Behold <02009>, I knew <03045> them. 8 Yea <01571>, thou heardest <08085> not; yea <01571>, thou knewest <03045> not; yea <01571>, from that time <0227> [that] thine ear <0241> was not opened <06605>: for I knew <03045> that thou wouldest deal very <0898> treacherously <0898>, and wast called <07121> a transgressor <06586> from the womb <0990>. 9. For my name's <08034> sake <04616> will I defer <0748> mine anger <0639>, and for my praise <08416> will I refrain <02413> for thee, that I cut <03772> thee not off. 10 Behold <02009>, I have refined <06884> thee, but not with silver <03701>; I have chosen <0977> thee in the furnace <03564> of affliction <06040>. 11 For mine own sake <04616>, [even] for mine own sake <04616>, will I do <06213> [it]: for how <0349> should [my name] be polluted <02490>? and I will not give <05414> my glory <03519> unto another <0312>. 12 Hearken <08085> unto me, O Jacob <03290> and Israel <03478>, my called <07121>; I [am] he; I [am] the first <07223>, I also <0637> [am] the last <0314>. 13 Mine hand <03027> also <0637> hath laid the foundation <03245> of the earth <0776>, and my right <03225> hand <03225> hath spanned <02946> the heavens <08064>: [when] I call <07121> unto them, they stand <05975> up together <03162>. 14 All <03605> ye, assemble <06908> yourselves, and hear <08085>; which <04310> among them hath declared <05046> these <0428> [things]? The LORD <03068> hath loved <0157> him: he will do <06213> his pleasure <02656> on Babylon <0894>, and his arm <02220> [shall be on] the Chaldeans <03778>. 15 I, [even] I, have spoken <01696>; yea <0637>, I have called <07121> him: I have brought <0935> him, and he shall make his way <01870> prosperous <06743>. 16. Come <07126> ye near <07126> unto me, hear <08085> ye this <02063>; I have not spoken <01696> in secret <05643> from the beginning <07218>; from the time <06256> that it was, there <08033> [am] I: and now <06258> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, and his Spirit <07307>, hath sent <07971> me. 17 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, thy Redeemer <01350>, the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>; I [am] the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> which teacheth <03925> thee to profit <03276>, which leadeth <01869> thee by the way <01870> [that] thou shouldest go <03212>. 18 O that thou hadst hearkened <07181> to my commandments <04687>! then had thy peace <07965> been <01961> as a river <05104>, and thy righteousness <06666> as the waves <01530> of the sea <03220>: 19 Thy seed <02233> also had been <01961> as the sand <02344>, and the offspring <06631> of thy bowels <04578> like the gravel <04579> thereof; his name <08034> should not have been cut <03772> off nor <03808> destroyed <08045> from before <06440> me. 20 Go <03318> ye forth <03318> of Babylon <0894>, flee <01272> ye from the Chaldeans <03778>, with a voice <06963> of singing <07440> declare <05046> ye, tell <08085> this <02063>, utter <03318> it [even] to the end <07097> of the earth <0776>; say <0559> ye, The LORD <03068> hath redeemed <01350> his servant <05650> Jacob <03290>. 21 And they thirsted <06770> not [when] he led <03212> them through the deserts <02723>: he caused the waters <04325> to flow <05140> out of the rock <06697> for them: he clave <01234> the rock <06697> also, and the waters <04325> gushed <02100> out. 22 [There is] no <0369> peace <07965>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, unto the wicked <07563>. Isaiah 49 1. Listen <08085>, O isles <0339>, unto me; and hearken <07181>, ye people <03816>, from far <07350>; The LORD <03068> hath called <07121> me from the womb <0990>; from the bowels <04578> of my mother <0517> hath he made mention <02142> of my name <08034>. 2 And he hath made <07760> my mouth <06310> like a sharp <02299> sword <02719>; in the shadow <06738> of his hand <03027> hath he hid <02244> me, and made <07760> me a polished <01305> shaft <02671>; in his quiver <0827> hath he hid <05641> me; 3 And said <0559> unto me, Thou [art] my servant <05650>, O Israel <03478>, in whom <0834> I will be glorified <06286>. 4 Then I said <0559>, I have laboured <03021> in vain <07385>, I have spent <03615> my strength <03581> for nought <08414>, and in vain <01892>: [yet] surely <0403> my judgment <04941> [is] with the LORD <03068>, and my work <06468> with my God <0430>. 5 And now <06258>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068> that formed <03335> me from the womb <0990> [to be] his servant <05650>, to bring <07725> Jacob <03290> again <07725> to him, Though Israel <03478> be not gathered <0622>, yet shall I be glorious <03513> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and my God <0430> shall be my strength <05797>. 6 And he said <0559>, It is a light <07043> thing that thou shouldest be my servant <05650> to raise <06965> up the tribes <07626> of Jacob <03290>, and to restore <07725> the preserved <05336> of Israel <03478>: I will also give <05414> thee for a light <0216> to the Gentiles <01471>, that thou mayest be my salvation <03444> unto the end <07097> of the earth <0776>. 7. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, the Redeemer <01350> of Israel <03478>, [and] his Holy <06918> One, to him whom man <05315> despiseth <0960>, to him whom the nation <01471> abhorreth <08581>, to a servant <05650> of rulers <04910>, Kings <04428> shall see <07200> and arise <06965>, princes <08269> also shall worship <07812>, because <04616> of the LORD <03068> that is faithful <0539>, [and] the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, and he shall choose <0977> thee. 8 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, In an acceptable <07522> time <06256> have I heard <06030> thee, and in a day <03117> of salvation <03444> have I helped <05826> thee: and I will preserve <05341> thee, and give <05414> thee for a covenant <01285> of the people <05971>, to establish <06965> the earth <0776>, to cause to inherit <05157> the desolate <08076> heritages <05159>; 9 That thou mayest say <0559> to the prisoners <0631>, Go <03318> forth <03318>; to them that [are] in darkness <02822>, Shew <01540> yourselves. They shall feed <07462> in the ways <01870>, and their pastures <04830> [shall be] in all <03605> high <08203> places. 10 They shall not hunger <07456> nor <03808> thirst <06770>; neither <03808> shall the heat <08273> nor <03808> sun <08121> smite <05221> them: for he that hath mercy <07355> on them shall lead <05090> them, even by the springs <04002> of water <04325> shall he guide <05095> them. 11 And I will make <07760> all <03605> my mountains <02022> a way <01870>, and my highways <04546> shall be exalted <07311>. 12 Behold <02009>, these <0428> shall come <0935> from far <07350>: and, lo <02009>, these <0428> from the north <06828> and from the west <03220>; and these <0428> from the land <0776> of Sinim <05515>. 13. Sing <07442>, O heavens <08064>; and be joyful <01523>, O earth <0776>; and break <06476> forth into singing <07440>, O mountains <02022>: for the LORD <03068> hath comforted <05162> his people <05971>, and will have mercy <07355> upon his afflicted <06041>. 14 But Zion <06726> said <0559>, The LORD <03068> hath forsaken <05800> me, and my Lord <0136> hath forgotten <07913> me. 15 Can a woman <0802> forget <07911> her sucking <05764> child, that she should not have compassion <07355> on the son <01121> of her womb <0990>? yea <01571>, they may forget <07911>, yet will I not forget <07911> thee. 16 Behold <02005>, I have graven <02710> thee upon the palms <03709> of [my] hands <03709>; thy walls <02346> [are] continually <08548> before <05048> me. 17 Thy children <01121> shall make haste <04116>; thy destroyers <02040> and they that made thee waste <02717> shall go <03318> forth <03318> of thee. 18. Lift <05375> up thine eyes <05869> round <05439> about, and behold <07200>: all <03605> these gather <06908> themselves together, [and] come <0935> to thee. [As] I live <02416>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, thou shalt surely <03588> clothe <03847> thee with them all <03605>, as with an ornament <05716>, and bind <07194> them [on thee], as a bride <03618> [doeth]. 19 For thy waste <02723> and thy desolate <08074> places, and the land <0776> of thy destruction <02035>, shall even <03588> now <06258> be too narrow <03334> by reason of the inhabitants <03427>, and they that swallowed <01104> thee up shall be far <07368> away. 20 The children <01121> which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost <07923> the other, shall say <0559> again <05750> in thine ears <0241>, The place <04725> [is] too strait <06862> for me: give <05066> place <04725> to me that I may dwell <03427>. 21 Then shalt thou say <0559> in thine heart <03824>, Who <04310> hath begotten <03205> me these <0428>, seeing I have lost <07908> my children, and am desolate <01565>, a captive <01473>, and removing <05493> to and fro? and who <04310> hath brought <01431> up these <02007>? Behold <02005>, I was left <07604> alone <0905>; these <0428>, where <0375> [had] they [been]? 22 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, Behold <02009>, I will lift <05375> up mine hand <03027> to the Gentiles <01471>, and set <07311> up my standard <05251> to the people <05971>: and they shall bring <0935> thy sons <01121> in [their] arms <02684>, and thy daughters <01121> shall be carried <05375> upon [their] shoulders <03802>. 23 And kings <04428> shall be thy nursing <0539> fathers, and their queens <08282> thy nursing <03243> mothers: they shall bow <07812> down <07812> to thee with [their] face <0639> toward the earth <0776>, and lick <03897> up the dust <06083> of thy feet <07272>; and thou shalt know <03045> that I [am] the LORD <03068>: for they shall not be ashamed <0954> that wait <06960> for me. 24. Shall the prey <04455> be taken <03947> from the mighty <01368>, or the lawful <06662> captive <07628> delivered <04422>? 25 But thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Even <01571> the captives <07628> of the mighty <01368> shall be taken <03947> away, and the prey <04455> of the terrible <06184> shall be delivered <04422>: for I will contend <07378> with him that contendeth <03401> with thee, and I will save <03467> thy children <01121>. 26 And I will feed <0398> them that oppress <03238> thee with their own flesh <01320>; and they shall be drunken <07937> with their own blood <01818>, as with sweet <06071> wine <06071>: and all <03605> flesh <01320> shall know <03045> that I the LORD <03068> [am] thy Saviour <03467> and thy Redeemer <01350>, the mighty <046> One of Jacob <03290>. Isaiah 50 1. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Where <0335> [is] the bill <05612> of your mother's <0517> divorcement <03748>, whom <0834> I have put <07971> away? or <0176> which <04310> of my creditors <05383> [is it] to whom <0834> I have sold <04376> you? Behold <02005>, for your iniquities <05771> have ye sold <04376> yourselves, and for your transgressions <06588> is your mother <0517> put <07971> away. 2 Wherefore <04069>, when I came <0935>, [was there] no <0369> man <0376>? when I called <07121>, [was there] none <0369> to answer <06030>? Is my hand <03027> shortened <07114> at all, that it cannot redeem <06304>? or have I no <0369> power <03581> to deliver <05337>? behold <02005>, at my rebuke <01606> I dry <02717> up the sea <03220>, I make <07760> the rivers <05103> a wilderness <04057>: their fish <01710> stinketh <0887>, because [there is] no <0369> water <04325>, and dieth <04191> for thirst <06772>. 3 I clothe <03847> the heavens <08064> with blackness <06940>, and I make <07760> sackcloth <08242> their covering <03682>. 4. The Lord <0136> GOD <03069> hath given <05414> me the tongue <03956> of the learned <03928>, that I should know <03045> how to speak <05790> a word <01697> in season to [him that is] weary <03287>: he wakeneth <05782> morning <01242> by morning <01242>, he wakeneth <05782> mine ear <0241> to hear <08085> as the learned <03928>. 5 The Lord <0136> GOD <03069> hath opened <06605> mine ear <0241>, and I was not rebellious <04784>, neither <03808> turned <05472> away back <0268>. 6 I gave <05414> my back <01458> to the smiters <05221>, and my cheeks <03895> to them that plucked <04803> off the hair: I hid <05641> not my face <06440> from shame <03639> and spitting <07536>. 7 For the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> will help <05826> me; therefore shall I not be confounded <03637>: therefore have I set <07760> my face <06440> like a flint <02496>, and I know <03045> that I shall not be ashamed <0954>. 8 [He is] near <07138> that justifieth <06663> me; who <04310> will contend <07378> with me? let us stand <05975> together <03162>: who <04310> [is] mine adversary? let him come <05066> near <05066> to me. 9 Behold <02005>, the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> will help <05826> me; who <04310> [is] he [that] shall condemn <07561> me? lo <02005>, they all <03605> shall wax old <01086> as a garment <0899>; the moth <06211> shall eat <0398> them up. 10. Who <04310> [is] among you that feareth <03373> the LORD <03068>, that obeyeth <08085> the voice <06963> of his servant <05650>, that walketh <01980> [in] darkness <02825>, and hath no <0369> light <05051>? let him trust <0982> in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>, and stay <08172> upon his God <0430>. 11 Behold <02005>, all <03605> ye that kindle <06919> a fire <0784>, that compass <0247> [yourselves] about with sparks <02131>: walk <03212> in the light <0217> of your fire <0784>, and in the sparks <02131> [that] ye have kindled <01197>. This <02063> shall ye have <01961> of mine hand <03027>; ye shall lie <07901> down <07901> in sorrow <04620>. Isaiah 51 1. Hearken <08085> to me, ye that follow <07291> after <0310> righteousness <06664>, ye that seek <01245> the LORD <03068>: look <05027> unto the rock <06697> [whence] ye are hewn <02672>, and to the hole <04618> of the pit <0953> [whence] ye are digged <05365>. 2 Look <05027> unto Abraham <085> your father <01>, and unto Sarah <08283> [that] bare <02342> you: for I called <07121> him alone <0259>, and blessed <01288> him, and increased <07235> him. 3 For the LORD <03068> shall comfort <05162> Zion <06726>: he will comfort <05162> all <03605> her waste <02723> places; and he will make <07760> her wilderness <04057> like Eden <05731>, and her desert <06160> like the garden <01588> of the LORD <03068>; joy <08342> and gladness <08057> shall be found <04672> therein, thanksgiving <08426>, and the voice <06963> of melody <02172>. 4. Hearken <07181> unto me, my people <05971>; and give ear <0238> unto me, O my nation <03816>: for a law <08451> shall proceed <03318> from me, and I will make my judgment <04941> to rest <07280> for a light <0216> of the people <05971>. 5 My righteousness <06664> [is] near <07138>; my salvation <03468> is gone <03318> forth <03318>, and mine arms <02220> shall judge <08199> the people <05971>; the isles <0339> shall wait <06960> upon me, and on <0413> mine arm <02220> shall they trust <03176>. 6 Lift <05375> up your eyes <05869> to the heavens <08064>, and look <05027> upon the earth <0776> beneath <08478>: for the heavens <08064> shall vanish <04414> away like smoke <06227>, and the earth <0776> shall wax old <01086> like a garment <0899>, and they that dwell <03427> therein shall die <04191> in like <03644> manner <03654>: but my salvation <03444> shall be for ever <05769>, and my righteousness <06666> shall not be abolished <02865>. 7 Hearken <08085> unto me, ye that know <03045> righteousness <06664>, the people <05971> in whose heart <03820> [is] my law <08451>; fear <03372> ye not the reproach <02781> of men <0582>, neither <0408> be ye afraid <02865> of their revilings <01421>. 8 For the moth <06211> shall eat <0398> them up like a garment <0899>, and the worm <05580> shall eat <0398> them like wool <06785>: but my righteousness <06666> shall be for ever <05769>, and my salvation <03444> from generation <01755> to generation <01755>. 9. Awake <05782>, awake <05782>, put <03847> on strength <05797>, O arm <02220> of the LORD <03068>; awake <05782>, as in the ancient <06924> days <03117>, in the generations <01755> of old <05769>. [Art] thou not it that hath cut <02672> Rahab <07294>, [and] wounded <02490> the dragon <08577>? 10 [Art] thou not it which hath dried <02717> the sea <03220>, the waters <04325> of the great <07227> deep <08415>; that hath made <07760> the depths <04615> of the sea <03220> a way <01870> for the ransomed <01350> to pass <05674> over <05674>? 11 Therefore the redeemed <06299> of the LORD <03068> shall return <07725>, and come <0935> with singing <07440> unto Zion <06726>; and everlasting <05769> joy <08057> [shall be] upon their head <07218>: they shall obtain <05381> gladness <08057> and joy <08057>; [and] sorrow <03015> and mourning <0585> shall flee <05127> away. 12 I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth <05162> you: who <04310> [art] thou, that thou shouldest be afraid <03372> of a man <0582> [that] shall die <04191>, and of the son <01121> of man <0120> [which] shall be made <05414> [as] grass <02682>; 13 And forgettest <07911> the LORD <03068> thy maker <06213>, that hath stretched <05186> forth the heavens <08064>, and laid the foundations <03245> of the earth <0776>; and hast feared <06342> continually <08548> every <03605> day <03117> because <06440> of the fury <02534> of the oppressor <06693>, as if he were ready <03559> to destroy <07843>? and where <0346> [is] the fury <02534> of the oppressor <06693>? 14 The captive <06808> exile <06808> hasteneth <04116> that he may be loosed <06605>, and that he should not die <04191> in the pit <07845>, nor <03808> that his bread <03899> should fail <02637>. 15 But I [am] the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, that divided <07280> the sea <03220>, whose waves <01530> roared <01993>: The LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [is] his name <08034>. 16 And I have put <07760> my words <01697> in thy mouth <06310>, and I have covered <03680> thee in the shadow <06738> of mine hand <03027>, that I may plant <05193> the heavens <08064>, and lay the foundations <03245> of the earth <0776>, and say <0559> unto Zion <06726>, Thou [art] my people <05971>. 17. Awake <05782>, awake <05782>, stand <06965> up, O Jerusalem <03389>, which <0834> hast drunk <08354> at the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> the cup <03563> of his fury <02534>; thou hast drunken <08354> the dregs <06907> of the cup <03563> of trembling <08653>, [and] wrung <04680> [them] out. 18 [There is] none <0369> to guide <05095> her among all <03605> the sons <01121> [whom] she hath brought <03205> forth <03205>; neither <0369> [is there any] that taketh <02388> her by the hand <03027> of all <03605> the sons <01121> [that] she hath brought <01431> up. 19 These <02007> two <08147> [things] are come <07122> unto thee; who <04310> shall be sorry <05110> for thee? desolation <07701>, and destruction <07667>, and the famine <07458>, and the sword <02719>: by whom <04310> shall I comfort <05162> thee? 20 Thy sons <01121> have fainted <05968>, they lie <07901> at the head <07218> of all <03605> the streets <02351>, as a wild <08377> bull <08377> in a net <04364>: they are full <04392> of the fury <02534> of the LORD <03068>, the rebuke <01606> of thy God <0430>. 21 Therefore <03651> hear <08085> now <04994> this <02063>, thou afflicted <06041>, and drunken <07937>, but not with wine <03196>: 22 Thus <03541> saith <0559> thy Lord <0113> the LORD <03068>, and thy God <0430> [that] pleadeth <07378> the cause of his people <05971>, Behold <02009>, I have taken <03947> out of thine hand <03027> the cup <03563> of trembling <08653>, [even] the dregs <06907> of the cup <03563> of my fury <02534>; thou shalt no <03808> more <03254> drink <08354> it again <05750>: 23 But I will put <07760> it into the hand <03027> of them that afflict <03013> thee; which <0834> have said <0559> to thy soul <05315>, Bow <07812> down <07812>, that we may go <05674> over <05674>: and thou hast laid <07760> thy body <01460> as the ground <0776>, and as the street <02351>, to them that went <05674> over <05674>. Isaiah 52 1. Awake <05782>, awake <05782>; put <03847> on thy strength <05797>, O Zion <06726>; put <03847> on thy beautiful <08597> garments <0899>, O Jerusalem <03389>, the holy <06944> city <05892>: for henceforth <06258> there shall no <03808> more come <0935> into thee the uncircumcised <06189> and the unclean <02931>. 2 Shake <05287> thyself from the dust <06083>; arise <06965>, [and] sit <03427> down, O Jerusalem <03389>: loose <06605> thyself from the bands <04147> of thy neck <06677>, O captive <07628> daughter <01323> of Zion <06726>. 3 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Ye have sold <04376> yourselves for nought <02600>; and ye shall be redeemed <01350> without <03808> money <03701>. 4 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, My people <05971> went <03381> down <03381> aforetime <07223> into Egypt <04714> to sojourn <01481> there <08033>; and the Assyrian <0804> oppressed <06231> them without <0657> cause <0657>. 5 Now <06258> therefore, what <04100> have I here <06311>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, that my people <05971> is taken <03947> away for nought <02600>? they that rule <04910> over them make them to howl <03213>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>; and my name <08034> continually <08548> every <03605> day <03117> [is] blasphemed <05006>. 6 Therefore <03651> my people <05971> shall know <03045> my name <08034>: therefore <03651> [they shall know] in that day <03117> that I [am] he that doth speak <01696>: behold <02009>, [it is] I. 7. How <04100> beautiful <04998> upon the mountains <02022> are the feet <07272> of him that bringeth <01319> good <02896> tidings <01319>, that publisheth <08085> peace <07965>; that bringeth <01319> good <02896> tidings <01319> of good <02896>, that publisheth <08085> salvation <03444>; that saith <0559> unto Zion <06726>, Thy God <0430> reigneth <04427>! 8 Thy watchmen <06822> shall lift <05375> up the voice <06963>; with the voice <06963> together <03162> shall they sing <07442>: for they shall see <07200> eye <05869> to eye <05869>, when the LORD <03068> shall bring <07725> again <07725> Zion <06726>. 9 Break <06476> forth into joy, sing <07442> together <03162>, ye waste <02723> places of Jerusalem <03389>: for the LORD <03068> hath comforted <05162> his people <05971>, he hath redeemed <01350> Jerusalem <03389>. 10 The LORD <03068> hath made bare <02834> his holy <06944> arm <02220> in the eyes <05869> of all <03605> the nations <01471>; and all <03605> the ends <0657> of the earth <0776> shall see <07200> the salvation <03444> of our God <0430>. 11 Depart <05493> ye, depart <05493> ye, go <03318> ye out from thence <08033>, touch <05060> no <0408> unclean <02931> [thing]; go <03318> ye out of the midst <08432> of her; be ye clean <01305>, that bear <05375> the vessels <03627> of the LORD <03068>. 12 For ye shall not go <03318> out with haste <02649>, nor <03808> go <03212> by flight <04499>: for the LORD <03068> will go <01980> before <06440> you; and the God <0430> of Israel <03478> [will be] your rereward <0622>. 13. Behold <02009>, my servant <05650> shall deal prudently <07919>, he shall be exalted <07311> and extolled <05375>, and be very <03966> high <01361>. 14 As many <07227> were astonied <08074> at thee; his visage <04758> was so marred <04893> more than any man <0376>, and his form <08389> more than the sons <01121> of men <0120>: 15 So <03651> shall he sprinkle <05137> many <07227> nations <01471>; the kings <04428> shall shut <07092> their mouths <06310> at him: for [that] which <0834> had not been told <05608> them shall they see <07200>; and [that] which <0834> they had not heard <08085> shall they consider <0995>. Isaiah 53 1. Who <04310> hath believed <0539> our report <08052>? and to whom <04310> is the arm <02220> of the LORD <03068> revealed <01540>? 2 For he shall grow <05927> up before <06440> him as a tender <03126> plant, and as a root <08328> out of a dry <06723> ground <0776>: he hath no <03808> form <08389> nor <03808> comeliness <01926>; and when we shall see <07200> him, [there is] no <03808> beauty <04758> that we should desire <02530> him. 3 He is despised <0959> and rejected <02310> of men <0376>; a man <0376> of sorrows <04341>, and acquainted <03045> with grief <02483>: and we hid <05641> as it were [our] faces <06440> from him; he was despised <0959>, and we esteemed him not. 4. Surely <0403> he hath borne <05375> our griefs <02483>, and carried <05445> our sorrows <04341>: yet we did esteem <02803> him stricken <05060>, smitten <05221> of God <0430>, and afflicted <06031>. 5 But he [was] wounded <02490> for our transgressions <06588>, [he was] bruised <01792> for our iniquities <05771>: the chastisement <04148> of our peace <07965> [was] upon him; and with his stripes <02250> we are healed <07495>. 6 All <03605> we like sheep <06629> have gone <08582> astray <08582>; we have turned <06437> every <0376> one <0376> to his own way <01870>; and the LORD <03068> hath laid <06293> on him the iniquity <05771> of us all <03605>. 7 He was oppressed <05065>, and he was afflicted <06031>, yet he opened <06605> not his mouth <06310>: he is brought <02986> as a lamb <07716> to the slaughter <02875>, and as a sheep <07353> before <06440> her shearers <01494> is dumb <0481>, so he openeth <06605> not his mouth <06310>. 8 He was taken <03947> from prison <06115> and from judgment <04941>: and who <04310> shall declare <07878> his generation <01755>? for he was cut <01504> off out of the land <0776> of the living <02416>: for the transgression <06588> of my people <05971> was he stricken <05061>. 9 And he made <05414> his grave <06913> with the wicked <07563>, and with the rich <06223> in his death <04194>; because <05921> he had done <06213> no <03808> violence <02555>, neither <03808> [was any] deceit <04820> in his mouth <06310>. 10. Yet it pleased <02654> the LORD <03068> to bruise <01792> him; he hath put [him] to grief <02470>: when <0518> thou shalt make <07760> his soul <05315> an offering for sin <0817>, he shall see <07200> [his] seed <02233>, he shall prolong <0748> [his] days <03117>, and the pleasure <02656> of the LORD <03068> shall prosper <06743> in his hand <03027>. 11 He shall see <07200> of the travail <05999> of his soul <05315>, [and] shall be satisfied <07646>: by his knowledge <01847> shall my righteous <06662> servant <05650> justify <06663> many <07227>; for he shall bear <05445> their iniquities <05771>. 12 Therefore <03651> will I divide <05312> him [a portion] with the great <07227>, and he shall divide <05312> the spoil <07998> with the strong <06099>; because he hath poured <06168> out his soul <05315> unto death <04194>: and he was numbered <04487> with the transgressors <06586>; and he bare <05375> the sin <02399> of many <07227>, and made intercession <06293> for the transgressors <06586>. Isaiah 54 1. Sing <07442>, O barren <06135>, thou [that] didst not bear <05375>; break <06476> forth into singing <07440>, and cry <06670> aloud <06670>, thou [that] didst not travail <02342> with child: for more <07227> [are] the children <01121> of the desolate <08074> than the children <01121> of the married <01166> wife, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>. 2 Enlarge <07337> the place <04725> of thy tent <0168>, and let them stretch <05186> forth the curtains <03407> of thine habitations <04908>: spare <02820> not, lengthen <0748> thy cords <04340>, and strengthen <02388> thy stakes <03489>; 3 For thou shalt break <06555> forth on the right <03225> hand <03225> and on the left <08040>; and thy seed <02233> shall inherit <03423> the Gentiles <01471>, and make the desolate <08077> cities <05892> to be inhabited <03427>. 4 Fear <03372> not; for thou shalt not be ashamed <0954>: neither <0408> be thou confounded <03637>; for thou shalt not be put to shame <02659>: for thou shalt forget <07911> the shame <01322> of thy youth <05934>, and shalt not remember <02142> the reproach <02781> of thy widowhood <0491> any more <05750>. 5 For thy Maker <06213> [is] thine husband <01167>; the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [is] his name <08034>; and thy Redeemer <01350> the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>; The God <0430> of the whole <03605> earth <0776> shall he be called <07121>. 6. For the LORD <03068> hath called <07121> thee as a woman <0802> forsaken <05800> and grieved <06087> in spirit <07307>, and a wife <0802> of youth <05271>, when <03588> thou wast refused <03988>, saith <0559> thy God <0430>. 7 For a small <06996> moment <07281> have I forsaken <05800> thee; but with great <01419> mercies <07356> will I gather <06908> thee. 8 In a little <08241> wrath <07110> I hid <05641> my face <06440> from thee for a moment <07281>; but with everlasting <05769> kindness <02617> will I have mercy <07355> on thee, saith <0559> the LORD <03068> thy Redeemer <01350>. 9 For this <02063> [is as] the waters <04325> of Noah <05146> unto me: for [as] I have sworn <07650> that the waters <04325> of Noah <05146> should no more <05750> go <05674> over <05674> the earth <0776>; so <03651> have I sworn <07650> that I would not be wroth <07107> with thee, nor rebuke <01605> thee. 10 For the mountains <02022> shall depart <04185>, and the hills <01389> be removed <04131>; but my kindness <02617> shall not depart <04185> from thee, neither <03808> shall the covenant <01285> of my peace <07965> be removed <04131>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068> that hath mercy <07355> on thee. 11. O thou afflicted <06041>, tossed with tempest <05590>, [and] not comforted <05162>, behold <02009>, I will lay <07257> thy stones <068> with fair <06320> colours <06320>, and lay thy foundations <03245> with sapphires <05601>. 12 And I will make <07760> thy windows <08121> of agates <03539>, and thy gates <08179> of carbuncles <068>, and all <03605> thy borders <01366> of pleasant <02656> stones <068>. 13 And all <03605> thy children <01121> [shall be] taught <03928> of the LORD <03068>; and great <07227> [shall be] the peace <07965> of thy children <01121>. 14 In righteousness <06666> shalt thou be established <03559>: thou shalt be far <07368> from oppression <06233>; for thou shalt not fear <03372>: and from terror <04288>; for it shall not come <07126> near <07126> thee. 15 Behold <02005>, they shall surely gather <01481> together, [but] not by me: whosoever <04310> shall gather <01481> together against <05921> thee shall fall <05307> for thy sake <04616>. 16 Behold <02005>, I have created <01254> the smith <02796> that bloweth <05301> the coals <06352> in the fire <0784>, and that bringeth <03318> forth <04161> an instrument <03627> for his work <04639>; and I have created <01254> the waster <07843> to destroy <02254>. 17 No <03808> weapon <03627> that is formed <03335> against <05921> thee shall prosper <06743>; and every <03605> tongue <03956> [that] shall rise <06965> against thee in judgment <04941> thou shalt condemn <07561>. This <02063> [is] the heritage <05159> of the servants <05650> of the LORD <03068>, and their righteousness <06666> [is] of me, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>. Isaiah 55 1. Ho <01945>, every <03605> one that thirsteth <06771>, come <03212> ye to the waters <04325>, and he that hath no <0369> money <03701>; come <03212> ye, buy <07666>, and eat <0398>; yea, come <03212>, buy <07666> wine <03196> and milk <02461> without <03808> money <03701> and without <03808> price <04242>. 2 Wherefore <04100> do ye spend <08254> money <03701> for [that which <0834> is] not bread <03899>? and your labour <03018> for [that which <0834>] satisfieth <07654> not? hearken <08085> diligently unto me, and eat <0398> ye [that which <0834> is] good <02896>, and let your soul <05315> delight <06026> itself in fatness <01880>. 3 Incline <05186> your ear <0241>, and come <03212> unto me: hear <08085>, and your soul <05315> shall live <02421>; and I will make <03772> an everlasting <05769> covenant <01285> with you, [even] the sure <0539> mercies <02617> of David <01732>. 4 Behold <02005>, I have given <05414> him [for] a witness <05707> to the people <03816>, a leader <05057> and commander <06680> to the people <03816>. 5 Behold <02005>, thou shalt call <07121> a nation <01471> [that] thou knowest <03045> not, and nations <01471> [that] knew <03045> not thee shall run <07323> unto thee because <04616> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, and for the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>; for he hath glorified <06286> thee. 6. Seek <01875> ye the LORD <03068> while he may be found <04672>, call <07121> ye upon him while he is near <07138>: 7 Let the wicked <07563> forsake <05800> his way <01870>, and the unrighteous <0205> man <0376> his thoughts <04284>: and let him return <07725> unto the LORD <03068>, and he will have mercy <07355> upon him; and to our God <0430>, for he will abundantly <07235> pardon <05545>. 8 For my thoughts <04284> [are] not your thoughts <04284>, neither <03808> [are] your ways <01870> my ways <01870>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>. 9 For [as] the heavens <08064> are higher <01361> than the earth <0776>, so <03651> are my ways <01870> higher <01361> than your ways <01870>, and my thoughts <04284> than your thoughts <04284>. 10 For as the rain <01653> cometh <03381> down <03381>, and the snow <07950> from heaven <08064>, and returneth <07725> not thither <08033>, but watereth <07301> the earth <0776>, and maketh it bring <03205> forth <03205> and bud <06779>, that it may give <05414> seed <02233> to the sower <02232>, and bread <03899> to the eater <0398>: 11 So <03651> shall my word <01697> be that goeth <03318> forth <03318> out of my mouth <06310>: it shall not return <07725> unto me void <07387>, but it shall accomplish <06213> that which <0834> I please <02654>, and it shall prosper <06743> [in the thing] whereto <0834> I sent <07971> it. 12 For ye shall go <03318> out with joy <08057>, and be led <02986> forth <02986> with peace <07965>: the mountains <02022> and the hills <01389> shall break <06476> forth before <06440> you into singing <07440>, and all <03605> the trees <06086> of the field <07704> shall clap <04222> [their] hands <03709>. 13 Instead <08478> of the thorn <05285> shall come <05927> up the fir <01265> tree, and instead <08478> of the brier <05636> shall come <05927> up the myrtle <01918> tree: and it shall be to the LORD <03068> for a name <08034>, for an everlasting <05769> sign <0226> [that] shall not be cut <03772> off. Isaiah 56 1. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Keep <08104> ye judgment <04941>, and do <06213> justice <06666>: for my salvation <03444> [is] near <07138> to come <0935>, and my righteousness <06666> to be revealed <01540>. 2 Blessed <0835> [is] the man <0582> [that] doeth <06213> this <02063>, and the son <01121> of man <0120> [that] layeth hold <02388> on it; that keepeth <08104> the sabbath <07676> from polluting <02490> it, and keepeth <08104> his hand <03027> from doing <06213> any <03605> evil <07451>. 3. Neither <0408> let the son <01121> of the stranger <05236>, that hath joined <03867> himself to the LORD <03068>, speak <0559>, saying <0559>, The LORD <03068> hath utterly separated <0914> me from his people <05971>: neither <0408> let the eunuch <05631> say <0559>, Behold <02005>, I [am] a dry <03002> tree <06086>. 4 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> unto the eunuchs <05631> that keep <08104> my sabbaths <07676>, and choose <0977> [the things] that please <02654> me, and take <02388> hold <02388> of my covenant <01285>; 5 Even unto them will I give <05414> in mine house <01004> and within my walls <02346> a place <03027> and a name <08034> better <02896> than of sons <01121> and of daughters <01121>: I will give <05414> them an everlasting <05769> name <08034>, that shall not be cut <03772> off. 6 Also the sons <01121> of the stranger <05236>, that join <03867> themselves to the LORD <03068>, to serve <08334> him, and to love <0157> the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>, to be his servants <05650>, every <03605> one that keepeth <08104> the sabbath <07676> from polluting <02490> it, and taketh <02388> hold <02388> of my covenant <01285>; 7 Even them will I bring <0935> to my holy <06944> mountain <02022>, and make them joyful <08055> in my house <01004> of prayer <08605>: their burnt <05930> offerings and their sacrifices <02077> [shall be] accepted <07522> upon mine altar <04196>; for mine house <01004> shall be called <07121> an house <01004> of prayer <08605> for all <03605> people <05971>. 8 The Lord <0136> GOD <03069> which gathereth <06908> the outcasts <01760> of Israel <03478> saith <05002>, Yet <05750> will I gather <06908> [others] to him, beside those that are gathered <06908> unto him. 9. All <03605> ye beasts <02416> of the field <07704>, come <0857> to devour <0398>, [yea], all <03605> ye beasts <02416> in the forest <03293>. 10 His watchmen <06822> [are] blind <05787>: they are all <03605> ignorant, they [are] all <03605> dumb <0483> dogs <03611>, they cannot bark <05024>; sleeping <01957>, lying <07901> down <07901>, loving <0157> to slumber <05123>. 11 Yea, [they are] greedy dogs <03611> [which] can <03045> never <03808> have <03045> enough <07654>, and they [are] shepherds <07462> [that] cannot understand <0995>: they all <03605> look <06437> to their own way <01870>, every <0376> one <0376> for his gain <01214>, from his quarter <07098>. 12 Come <0857> ye, [say they], I will fetch <03947> wine <03196>, and we will fill <04390> ourselves with strong drink <07941>; and to morrow <04279> shall be as this <02088> day <03117>, [and] much <03966> more <03499> abundant <01419>. Isaiah 57 1. The righteous <06662> perisheth <06>, and no <0369> man <0376> layeth <07760> [it] to heart <03820>: and merciful <02617> men <0582> [are] taken <0622> away, none <0369> considering <0995> that the righteous <06662> is taken <0622> away from the evil <07451> [to come]. 2 He shall enter <0935> into peace <07965>: they shall rest <05117> in their beds <04904>, [each one] walking <01980> [in] his uprightness <05228>. 3. But draw near <07126> hither, ye sons <01121> of the sorceress <06049>, the seed <02233> of the adulterer <05003> and the whore <02181>. 4 Against <05921> whom <04310> do ye sport <06026> yourselves? against <05921> whom <04310> make ye a wide <07337> mouth <06310>, [and] draw <0748> out the tongue <03956>? [are] ye not children <03206> of transgression <06588>, a seed <02233> of falsehood <08267>, 5 Enflaming <02552> yourselves with idols <0410> under <08478> every <03605> green <07488> tree <06086>, slaying <07819> the children <03206> in the valleys <05158> under <08478> the clifts <05585> of the rocks <05553>? 6 Among the smooth <02511> [stones] of the stream <05158> [is] thy portion <02506>; they, they [are] thy lot <01486>: even <01571> to them hast thou poured <08210> a drink <05262> offering, thou hast offered <05927> a meat offering <04503>. Should I receive <05162> comfort <05162> in these <0428>? 7 Upon a lofty <01364> and high <05375> mountain <02022> hast thou set <07760> thy bed <04904>: even <01571> thither <08033> wentest <05927> thou up to offer <02076> sacrifice <02077>. 8 Behind <0310> the doors <01817> also and the posts <04201> hast thou set <07760> up thy remembrance <02146>: for thou hast discovered <01540> [thyself to another] than me, and art gone <05927> up; thou hast enlarged <07337> thy bed <04904>, and made <03772> thee [a covenant] with them; thou lovedst <0157> their bed <04904> where <03027> thou sawest <02372> [it]. 9 And thou wentest <07788> to the king <04428> with ointment <08081>, and didst increase <07235> thy perfumes <07547>, and didst send <07971> thy messengers <06735> far <07350> off, and didst debase <08213> [thyself even] unto hell <07585>. 10 Thou art wearied <03021> in the greatness <07230> of thy way <01870>; [yet] saidst <0559> thou not, There is no hope <02976>: thou hast found <04672> the life <02416> of thine hand <03027>; therefore thou wast not grieved <02470>. 11 And of whom <04310> hast thou been afraid <01672> or feared <03372>, that thou hast lied <03576>, and hast not remembered <02142> me, nor <03808> laid <07760> [it] to thy heart <03820>? have not I held <02814> my peace <02814> even of old <05769>, and thou fearest <03372> me not? 12 I will declare <05046> thy righteousness <06666>, and thy works <04639>; for they shall not profit <03276> thee. 13. When thou criest <02199>, let thy companies deliver <05337> thee; but the wind <07307> shall carry <05375> them all <03605> away; vanity <01892> shall take <03947> [them]: but he that putteth his trust <02620> in me shall possess <05157> the land <0776>, and shall inherit <03423> my holy <06944> mountain <02022>; 14 And shall say <0559>, Cast <05549> ye up, cast <05549> ye up, prepare <06437> the way <01870>, take <07311> up the stumblingblock <04383> out of the way <01870> of my people <05971>. 15 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the high <07311> and lofty <05375> One that inhabiteth <07931> eternity <05703>, whose name <08034> [is] Holy <06918>; I dwell <07931> in the high <04791> and holy <06918> [place], with him also [that is] of a contrite <01793> and humble <08217> spirit <07307>, to revive <02421> the spirit <07307> of the humble <08217>, and to revive <02421> the heart <03820> of the contrite <01792> ones. 16 For I will not contend <07378> for ever <05769>, neither <03808> will I be always <05331> wroth <07107>: for the spirit <07307> should fail <05848> before <06440> me, and the souls <05397> [which] I have made <06213>. 17. For the iniquity <05771> of his covetousness <01215> was I wroth <07107>, and smote <05221> him: I hid <05641> me, and was wroth <07107>, and he went <03212> on frowardly <07726> in the way <01870> of his heart <03820>. 18 I have seen <07200> his ways <01870>, and will heal <07495> him: I will lead <05148> him also, and restore <07999> comforts <05150> unto him and to his mourners <057>. 19 I create <01254> the fruit <05108> of the lips <08193>; Peace <07965>, peace <07965> to [him that is] far <07350> off, and to [him that is] near <07138>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>; and I will heal <07495> him. 20 But the wicked <07563> [are] like the troubled <01644> sea <03220>, when <03588> it cannot rest <08252>, whose waters <04325> cast <01644> up mire <07516> and dirt <02916>. 21 [There is] no <0369> peace <07965>, saith <0559> my God <0430>, to the wicked <07563>. Isaiah 58 1. Cry <07121> aloud <01627>, spare <02820> not, lift <07311> up thy voice <06963> like a trumpet <07782>, and shew <05046> my people <05971> their transgression <06588>, and the house <01004> of Jacob <03290> their sins <02403>. 2 Yet they seek <01875> me daily <03117>, and delight <02654> to know <01847> my ways <01870>, as a nation <01471> that did <06213> righteousness <06666>, and forsook <05800> not the ordinance <04941> of their God <0430>: they ask <07592> of me the ordinances <04941> of justice <06664>; they take delight <02654> in approaching <07132> to God <0430>. 3. Wherefore <04100> have we fasted <06684>, [say they], and thou seest <07200> not? [wherefore] have we afflicted <06031> our soul <05315>, and thou takest no <03808> knowledge <03045>? Behold <02005>, in the day <03117> of your fast <06685> ye find <04672> pleasure <02656>, and exact <05065> all <03605> your labours <06092>. 4 Behold <02005>, ye fast <06684> for strife <07379> and debate <04683>, and to smite <05221> with the fist <0106> of wickedness <07562>: ye shall not fast <06684> as [ye do this] day <03117>, to make your voice <06963> to be heard <08085> on high <04791>. 5 Is it such <02088> a fast <06685> that I have chosen <0977>? a day <03117> for a man <0120> to afflict <06031> his soul <05315>? [is it] to bow <03721> down his head <07218> as a bulrush <0100>, and to spread <03331> sackcloth <08242> and ashes <0665> [under him]? wilt thou call <07121> this <02088> a fast <06685>, and an acceptable <07522> day <03117> to the LORD <03068>? 6 [Is] not this <02088> the fast <06685> that I have chosen <0977>? to loose <06605> the bands <02784> of wickedness <07562>, to undo <05425> the heavy <04133> burdens <092>, and to let the oppressed <07533> go <07971> free <02670>, and that ye break <05423> every <03605> yoke <04133>? 7 [Is it] not to deal <06536> thy bread <03899> to the hungry <07456>, and that thou bring <0935> the poor <06041> that are cast <04788> out to thy house <01004>? when <03588> thou seest <07200> the naked <06174>, that thou cover <03680> him; and that thou hide <05956> not thyself from thine own flesh <01320>? 8. Then <0227> shall thy light <0216> break <01234> forth as the morning <07837>, and thine health <0724> shall spring <06779> forth speedily <04120>: and thy righteousness <06664> shall go <01980> before <06440> thee; the glory <03519> of the LORD <03068> shall be thy rereward <0622>. 9 Then <0227> shalt thou call <07121>, and the LORD <03068> shall answer <06030>; thou shalt cry <07768>, and he shall say <0559>, Here <02009> I [am]. If thou take <05493> away <05493> from the midst <08432> of thee the yoke <04133>, the putting <07971> forth <07971> of the finger <0676>, and speaking <01696> vanity <0205>; 10 And [if] thou draw <06329> out thy soul <05315> to the hungry <07456>, and satisfy <07646> the afflicted <06031> soul <05315>; then shall thy light <0216> rise <02224> in obscurity <02822>, and thy darkness <0653> [be] as the noonday <06672>: 11 And the LORD <03068> shall guide <05148> thee continually <08548>, and satisfy <07646> thy soul <05315> in drought <06710>, and make fat <02502> thy bones <06106>: and thou shalt be like a watered <07302> garden <01588>, and like a spring <04161> of water <04325>, whose <0834> waters <04325> fail <03576> not. 12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build <01129> the old <05769> waste <02723> places: thou shalt raise <06965> up the foundations <04146> of many generations <01755>; and thou shalt be called <07121>, The repairer <01443> of the breach <06556>, The restorer <07725> of paths <05410> to dwell <03427> in. 13. If <0518> thou turn <07725> away thy foot <07272> from the sabbath <07676>, [from] doing <06213> thy pleasure <02656> on my holy <06944> day <03117>; and call <07121> the sabbath <07676> a delight <06027>, the holy <06918> of the LORD <03068>, honourable <03513>; and shalt honour <03513> him, not doing <06213> thine own ways <01870>, nor finding <04672> thine own pleasure <02656>, nor speaking <01696> [thine own] words <01697>: 14 Then <0227> shalt thou delight <06026> thyself in the LORD <03068>; and I will cause thee to ride <07392> upon the high <01116> places of the earth <0776>, and feed <0398> thee with the heritage <05159> of Jacob <03290> thy father <01>: for the mouth <06310> of the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> [it]. Isaiah 59 1. Behold <02005>, the LORD'S <03068> hand <03027> is not shortened <07114>, that it cannot <03808> save <03467>; neither <03808> his ear <0241> heavy <03513>, that it cannot <03808> hear <08085>: 2 But your iniquities <05771> have separated <0914> between <0996> you and your God <0430>, and your sins <02403> have hid <05641> [his] face <06440> from you, that he will not hear <08085>. 3 For your hands <03709> are defiled <01351> with blood <01818>, and your fingers <0676> with iniquity <05771>; your lips <08193> have spoken <01696> lies <08267>, your tongue <03956> hath muttered <01897> perverseness <05766>. 4 None <0369> calleth <07121> for justice <06664>, nor <0369> [any] pleadeth <08199> for truth <0530>: they trust <0982> in vanity <08414>, and speak <01696> lies <07723>; they conceive <02029> mischief <05999>, and bring <03205> forth <03205> iniquity <0205>. 5 They hatch <01234> cockatrice <06848>' eggs <01000>, and weave <0707> the spider's <05908> web <06980>: he that eateth <0398> of their eggs <01000> dieth <04191>, and that which is crushed <02116> breaketh <01234> out into a viper <0660>. 6 Their webs <06980> shall not become <01961> garments <0899>, neither <03808> shall they cover <03680> themselves with their works <04639>: their works <04639> [are] works <04639> of iniquity <0205>, and the act <06467> of violence <02555> [is] in their hands <03709>. 7 Their feet <07272> run <07323> to evil <07451>, and they make haste <04116> to shed <08210> innocent <05355> blood <01818>: their thoughts <04284> [are] thoughts <04284> of iniquity <0205>; wasting <07701> and destruction <07667> [are] in their paths <04546>. 8 The way <01870> of peace <07965> they know <03045> not; and [there is] no <0369> judgment <04941> in their goings <04570>: they have made them crooked <06140> paths <05410>: whosoever <03605> goeth <01869> therein shall not know <03045> peace <07965>. 9. Therefore is judgment <04941> far <07368> from us, neither <03808> doth justice <06666> overtake <05381> us: we wait <06960> for light <0216>, but behold <02009> obscurity <02822>; for brightness <05054>, [but] we walk <01980> in darkness <0653>. 10 We grope <01659> for the wall <07023> like the blind <05787>, and we grope <01659> as if [we had] no <0369> eyes <05869>: we stumble <03782> at noonday <06672> as in the night <05399>; [we are] in desolate <0820> places as dead <04191> [men]. 11 We roar <01993> all <03605> like bears <01677>, and mourn <01897> sore like doves <03123>: we look <06960> for judgment <04941>, but [there is] none <0369>; for salvation <03444>, [but] it is far <07368> off from us. 12 For our transgressions <06588> are multiplied <07231> before <05048> thee, and our sins <02403> testify <06030> against us: for our transgressions <06588> [are] with us; and [as for] our iniquities <05771>, we know <03045> them; 13 In transgressing <06586> and lying <03584> against the LORD <03068>, and departing <05253> away from our God <0430>, speaking <01696> oppression <06233> and revolt <05627>, conceiving <02030> and uttering <01897> from the heart <03820> words <01697> of falsehood <08267>. 14 And judgment <04941> is turned <05253> away backward <0268>, and justice <06666> standeth <05975> afar <07350> off: for truth <0571> is fallen <03782> in the street <07339>, and equity <05229> cannot enter <0935>. 15 Yea, truth <0571> faileth <05737>; and he [that] departeth <05493> from evil <07451> maketh himself a prey <07997>: and the LORD <03068> saw <07200> [it], and it displeased him that [there was] no <0369> judgment <04941>. 16. And he saw <07200> that [there was] no <0369> man <0376>, and wondered <08074> that [there was] no <0369> intercessor <06293>: therefore his arm <02220> brought <03467> salvation <03467> unto him; and his righteousness <06666>, it sustained <05564> him. 17 For he put <03847> on righteousness <06666> as a breastplate <08302>, and an helmet <03553> of salvation <03444> upon his head <07218>; and he put <03847> on the garments <0899> of vengeance <05359> [for] clothing <08516>, and was clad <05844> with zeal <07068> as a cloke <04598>. 18 According <05921> to [their] deeds <01578>, accordingly <05922> he will repay <07999>, fury <02534> to his adversaries <06862>, recompence <01576> to his enemies <0341>; to the islands <0339> he will repay <07999> recompence <01576>. 19 So shall they fear <03372> the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> from the west <04628>, and his glory <03519> from the rising <04217> of the sun <08121>. When <03588> the enemy <06862> shall come <0935> in like a flood <05104>, the Spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068> shall lift <05127> up a standard <05127> against him. 20 And the Redeemer <01350> shall come <0935> to Zion <06726>, and unto them that turn <07725> from transgression <06588> in Jacob <03290>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>. 21 As for me, this <02063> [is] my covenant <01285> with them, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>; My spirit <07307> that [is] upon thee, and my words <01697> which <0834> I have put <07760> in thy mouth <06310>, shall not depart <04185> out of thy mouth <06310>, nor out of the mouth <06310> of thy seed <02233>, nor out of the mouth <06310> of thy seed's <02233> seed <02233>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, from henceforth <03254> and for ever <05769>. Isaiah 60 1. Arise <06965>, shine <0215>; for thy light <0216> is come <0935>, and the glory <03519> of the LORD <03068> is risen <02224> upon thee. 2 For, behold <02009>, the darkness <02822> shall cover <03680> the earth <0776>, and gross <06205> darkness <06205> the people <03816>: but the LORD <03068> shall arise <02224> upon thee, and his glory <03519> shall be seen <07200> upon thee. 3 And the Gentiles <01471> shall come <01980> to thy light <0216>, and kings <04428> to the brightness <05051> of thy rising <02225>. 4 Lift <05375> up thine eyes <05869> round <05439> about, and see <07200>: all <03605> they gather <06908> themselves together, they come <0935> to thee: thy sons <01121> shall come <0935> from far <07350>, and thy daughters <01121> shall be nursed <0539> at <05921> [thy] side <06654>. 5 Then <0227> thou shalt see, and flow <05102> together, and thine heart <03824> shall fear <06342>, and be enlarged <07337>; because <03588> the abundance <01995> of the sea <03220> shall be converted <02015> unto thee, the forces <02428> of the Gentiles <01471> shall come <0935> unto thee. 6 The multitude <08229> of camels <01581> shall cover <03680> thee, the dromedaries <01070> of Midian <04080> and Ephah <05891>; all <03605> they from Sheba <07614> shall come <0935>: they shall bring <05375> gold <02091> and incense <03828>; and they shall shew <01319> forth the praises <08416> of the LORD <03068>. 7 All <03605> the flocks <06629> of Kedar <06938> shall be gathered <06908> together unto thee, the rams <0352> of Nebaioth <05032> shall minister <08334> unto thee: they shall come <05927> up with acceptance <07522> on <05921> mine altar <04196>, and I will glorify <06286> the house <01004> of my glory <08597>. 8 Who <04310> [are] these <0428> [that] fly <05774> as a cloud <05645>, and as the doves <03123> to their windows <0699>? 9. Surely <03588> the isles <0339> shall wait <06960> for me, and the ships <0591> of Tarshish <08659> first <07223>, to bring <0935> thy sons <01121> from far <07350>, their silver <03701> and their gold <02091> with them, unto the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, and to the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>, because <03588> he hath glorified <06286> thee. 10 And the sons <01121> of strangers <05236> shall build <01129> up thy walls <02346>, and their kings <04428> shall minister <08334> unto thee: for in my wrath <07110> I smote <05221> thee, but in my favour <07522> have I had mercy <07355> on thee. 11 Therefore thy gates <08179> shall be open <06605> continually <08548>; they shall not be shut <05462> day <03119> nor night <03915>; that [men] may bring <0935> unto thee the forces <02428> of the Gentiles <01471>, and [that] their kings <04428> [may be] brought <05090>. 12 For the nation <01471> and kingdom <04467> that will not serve <05647> thee shall perish <06>; yea, [those] nations <01471> shall be utterly wasted <02717>. 13 The glory <03519> of Lebanon <03844> shall come <0935> unto thee, the fir <01265> tree, the pine <08410> tree, and the box <08391> together <03162>, to beautify <06286> the place <04725> of my sanctuary <04720>; and I will make <07760> the place <04725> of my feet <07272> glorious <03513>. 14 The sons <01121> also of them that afflicted <06031> thee shall come <01980> bending <07817> unto thee; and all <03605> they that despised <05006> thee shall bow <07812> themselves down <07812> at <05921> the soles <03709> of thy feet <07272>; and they shall call <07121> thee, The city <05892> of the LORD <03068>, The Zion <06726> of the Holy <06918> One of Israel <03478>. 15. Whereas <08478> thou hast been <01961> forsaken <05800> and hated <08130>, so that no <0369> man went <05674> through <05674> [thee], I will make <07760> thee an eternal <05769> excellency <01347>, a joy <04885> of many generations <01755>. 16 Thou shalt also suck <03243> the milk <02461> of the Gentiles <01471>, and shalt suck <03243> the breast <07699> of kings <04428>: and thou shalt know <03045> that I the LORD <03068> [am] thy Saviour <03467> and thy Redeemer <01350>, the mighty <046> One of Jacob <03290>. 17 For brass <05178> I will bring <0935> gold <02091>, and for iron <01270> I will bring <0935> silver <03701>, and for wood <06086> brass <05178>, and for stones <068> iron <01270>: I will also make <07760> thy officers <06486> peace <07965>, and thine exactors <05065> righteousness <06666>. 18 Violence <02555> shall no <03808> more <05750> be heard <08085> in thy land <0776>, wasting <07701> nor destruction <07667> within thy borders <01366>; but thou shalt call <07121> thy walls <02346> Salvation <03444>, and thy gates <08179> Praise <08416>. 19 The sun <08121> shall be no <03808> more <05750> thy light <0216> by day <03117>; neither <03808> for brightness <05051> shall the moon <03394> give light <0216> unto thee: but the LORD <03068> shall be unto thee an everlasting <05769> light <0216>, and thy God <0430> thy glory <08597>. 20 Thy sun <08121> shall no <03808> more <05750> go <0935> down; neither <03808> shall thy moon <03391> withdraw <0622> itself: for the LORD <03068> shall be thine everlasting <05769> light <0216>, and the days <03117> of thy mourning <060> shall be ended <07999>. 21 Thy people <05971> also [shall be] all <03605> righteous <06662>: they shall inherit <03423> the land <0776> for ever <05769>, the branch <05342> of my planting <04302>, the work <04639> of my hands <03027>, that I may be glorified <06286>. 22 A little <06996> one shall become <01961> a thousand <0505>, and a small <06810> one a strong <06099> nation <01471>: I the LORD <03068> will hasten <02363> it in his time <06256>. Isaiah 61 1. The Spirit <07307> of the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> [is] upon me; because <03282> the LORD <03068> hath anointed <04886> me to preach <01319> good <01319> tidings <01319> unto the meek <06035>; he hath sent <07971> me to bind <02280> up the brokenhearted, to proclaim <07121> liberty <01865> to the captives <07628>, and the opening <06495> of the prison <06495> to [them that are] bound <0631>; 2 To proclaim <07121> the acceptable <07522> year <08141> of the LORD <03068>, and the day <03117> of vengeance <05359> of our God <0430>; to comfort <05162> all <03605> that mourn <057>; 3 To appoint <07760> unto them that mourn <057> in Zion <06726>, to give <05414> unto them beauty <06287> for ashes <0665>, the oil <08081> of joy <08342> for mourning <060>, the garment <04594> of praise <08416> for the spirit <07307> of heaviness <03544>; that they might be called <07121> trees <0352> of righteousness <06664>, the planting <04302> of the LORD <03068>, that he might be glorified <06286>. 4. And they shall build <01129> the old <05769> wastes <02723>, they shall raise <06965> up the former <07223> desolations <08074>, and they shall repair <02318> the waste <02721> cities <05892>, the desolations <08074> of many <07227> generations <01755>. 5 And strangers <02114> shall stand <05975> and feed <07462> your flocks <06629>, and the sons <01121> of the alien <05236> [shall be] your plowmen <0406> and your vinedressers <03755>. 6 But ye shall be named <07121> the Priests <03548> of the LORD <03068>: [men] shall call <07121> you the Ministers <08334> of our God <0430>: ye shall eat <0398> the riches <02428> of the Gentiles <01471>, and in their glory <03519> shall ye boast <03235> yourselves. 7 For your shame <01322> [ye shall have] double <04932>; and [for] confusion <03639> they shall rejoice <07442> in their portion <02506>: therefore <03651> in their land <0776> they shall possess <03423> the double <04932>: everlasting <05769> joy <08057> shall be unto them. 8 For I the LORD <03068> love <0157> judgment <04941>, I hate <08130> robbery <01498> for burnt <05930> offering; and I will direct <05414> their work <06468> in truth <0571>, and I will make <03772> an everlasting <05769> covenant <01285> with them. 9 And their seed <02233> shall be known <03045> among the Gentiles <01471>, and their offspring <06631> among <08432> the people <05971>: all <03605> that see <07200> them shall acknowledge <05234> them, that they [are] the seed <02233> [which] the LORD <03068> hath blessed <01288>. 10. I will greatly rejoice <07797> in the LORD <03068>, my soul <05315> shall be joyful <01523> in my God <0430>; for he hath clothed <03847> me with the garments <0899> of salvation <03468>, he hath covered <03271> me with the robe <04598> of righteousness <06666>, as a bridegroom <02860> decketh <03547> [himself] with ornaments <06287>, and as a bride <03618> adorneth <05710> [herself] with her jewels <03627>. 11 For as the earth <0776> bringeth <03318> forth <03318> her bud <06779>, and as the garden <01593> causeth the things that are sown <02221> in it to spring <06779> forth; so <03651> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> will cause righteousness <06666> and praise <08416> to spring <06779> forth before <05048> all <03605> the nations <01471>. Isaiah 62 1. For Zion's sake <04616> will I not hold <02814> my peace <02814>, and for Jerusalem's <03389> sake <04616> I will not rest <08252>, until <05704> the righteousness <06664> thereof go <03318> forth <03318> as brightness <05051>, and the salvation <03444> thereof as a lamp <03940> [that] burneth <01197>. 2 And the Gentiles <01471> shall see <07200> thy righteousness <06664>, and all <03605> kings <04428> thy glory <03519>: and thou shalt be called <07121> by a new <02319> name <08034>, which <0834> the mouth <06310> of the LORD <03068> shall name <08034>. 3 Thou shalt also be a crown <05850> of glory <08597> in the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068>, and a royal <04410> diadem <06797> in the hand <03709> of thy God <0430>. 4 Thou shalt no <03808> more <05750> be termed <0559> Forsaken <05800>; neither <03808> shall thy land <0776> any more <05750> be termed <0559> Desolate <08077>: but thou shalt be called <07121> Hephzibah <02657>, and thy land <0776> Beulah <01166>: for the LORD <03068> delighteth <02654> in thee, and thy land <0776> shall be married <01166>. 5 For [as] a young <0970> man marrieth <01166> a virgin <01330>, [so] shall thy sons <01121> marry <01166> thee: and [as] the bridegroom <02860> rejoiceth <04885> over <05921> the bride <03618>, [so] shall thy God <0430> rejoice <07797> over <05921> thee. 6. I have set <06485> watchmen <08104> upon thy walls <02346>, O Jerusalem <03389>, [which] shall never <03808> hold <02814> their peace <02814> day <03117> nor night <03915>: ye that make mention <02142> of the LORD <03068>, keep not silence <01824>, 7 And give <05414> him no <0408> rest <01824>, till <05704> he establish <03559>, and till <05704> he make <07760> Jerusalem <03389> a praise <08416> in the earth <0776>. 8 The LORD <03068> hath sworn <07650> by his right <03225> hand <03225>, and by the arm <02220> of his strength <05797>, Surely <0518> I will no <0518> more <05750> give <05414> thy corn <01715> [to be] meat <03978> for thine enemies <0341>; and the sons <01121> of the stranger <05236> shall not drink <08354> thy wine <08492>, for the which <0834> thou hast laboured <03021>: 9 But they that have gathered <0622> it shall eat <0398> it, and praise <01984> the LORD <03068>; and they that have brought <06908> it together shall drink <08354> it in the courts <02691> of my holiness <06944>. 10. Go <05674> through <05674>, go <05674> through the gates <08179>; prepare <06437> ye the way <01870> of the people <05971>; cast <05549> up, cast <05549> up the highway <04546>; gather <05619> out the stones <068>; lift <07311> up a standard <05251> for the people <05971>. 11 Behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> hath proclaimed <08085> unto the end <07097> of the world <0776>, Say <0559> ye to the daughter <01323> of Zion <06726>, Behold <02009>, thy salvation <03468> cometh <0935>; behold <02009>, his reward <07939> [is] with him, and his work <06468> before <06440> him. 12 And they shall call <07121> them, The holy <06944> people <05971>, The redeemed <01350> of the LORD <03068>: and thou shalt be called <07121>, Sought <01875> out, A city <05892> not forsaken <05800>. Isaiah 63 1. Who <04310> [is] this <02088> that cometh <0935> from Edom <0123>, with dyed <02556> garments <0899> from Bozrah <01224>? this <02088> [that is] glorious <01921> in his apparel <03830>, travelling <06808> in the greatness <07230> of his strength <03581>? I that speak <01696> in righteousness <06666>, mighty <07227> to save <03467>. 2 Wherefore <04069> [art thou] red <0122> in thine apparel <03830>, and thy garments <0899> like him that treadeth <01869> in the winefat <01660>? 3 I have trodden <01869> the winepress <06333> alone <0905>; and of the people <05971> [there was] none with me: for I will tread <01869> them in mine anger <0639>, and trample <07429> them in my fury <02534>; and their blood <05332> shall be sprinkled <05137> upon my garments <0899>, and I will stain <01351> all <03605> my raiment <04403>. 4 For the day <03117> of vengeance <05359> [is] in mine heart <03820>, and the year <08141> of my redeemed <01350> is come <0935>. 5 And I looked <05027>, and [there was] none <0369> to help <05826>; and I wondered <08074> that [there was] none <0369> to uphold <05564>: therefore mine own arm <02220> brought <03467> salvation <03467> unto me; and my fury <02534>, it upheld <05564> me. 6 And I will tread <0947> down the people <05971> in mine anger <0639>, and make them drunk <07937> in my fury <02534>, and I will bring <03381> down their strength <05332> to the earth <0776>. 7. I will mention <02142> the lovingkindnesses <02617> of the LORD <03068>, [and] the praises <08416> of the LORD <03068>, according <05921> to all <03605> that the LORD <03068> hath bestowed <01580> on us, and the great <07227> goodness <02898> toward the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, which <0834> he hath bestowed <01580> on them according to his mercies <07356>, and according to the multitude <07230> of his lovingkindnesses <02617>. 8 For he said <0559>, Surely <0389> they [are] my people <05971>, children <01121> [that] will not lie <08266>: so he was their Saviour <03467>. 9 In all <03605> their affliction <06869> he was afflicted <06862>, and the angel <04397> of his presence <06440> saved <03467> them: in his love <0160> and in his pity <02551> he redeemed <01350> them; and he bare <05190> them, and carried <05375> them all <03605> the days <03117> of old <05769>. 10 But they rebelled <04784>, and vexed <06087> his holy <06944> Spirit <07307>: therefore he was turned <02015> to be their enemy <0341>, [and] he fought <03898> against them. 11 Then he remembered <02142> the days <03117> of old <05769>, Moses <04872>, [and] his people <05971>, [saying], Where <0346> [is] he that brought <05927> them up out of the sea <03220> with the shepherd <07462> of his flock <06629>? where <0346> [is] he that put <07760> his holy <06944> Spirit <07307> within <07130> him? 12 That led <03212> [them] by the right <03225> hand <03225> of Moses <04872> with his glorious <08597> arm <02220>, dividing <01234> the water <04325> before <06440> them, to make <06213> himself an everlasting <05769> name <08034>? 13 That led <03212> them through the deep <08415>, as an horse <05483> in the wilderness <04057>, [that] they should not stumble <03782>? 14 As a beast <0929> goeth <03318> down <03381> into the valley <01237>, the Spirit <07307> of the LORD <03068> caused him to rest <05117>: so <03651> didst thou lead <05090> thy people <05971>, to make <06213> thyself a glorious <08597> name <08034>. 15. Look <05027> down from heaven <08064>, and behold <07200> from the habitation <02073> of thy holiness <06944> and of thy glory <08597>: where <0346> [is] thy zeal <07068> and thy strength <01369>, the sounding <01995> of thy bowels <04578> and of thy mercies <07356> toward <0413> me? are they restrained <0662>? 16 Doubtless <03588> thou [art] our father <01>, though <03588> Abraham <085> be ignorant of us, and Israel <03478> acknowledge <05234> us not: thou, O LORD <03068>, [art] our father <01>, our redeemer <01350>; thy name <08034> [is] from everlasting <05769>. 17 O LORD <03068>, why <04100> hast thou made us to err <08582> from thy ways <01870>, [and] hardened <07188> our heart <03820> from thy fear <03374>? Return <07725> for thy servants <05650>' sake <04616>, the tribes <07626> of thine inheritance <05159>. 18 The people <05971> of thy holiness <06944> have possessed <03423> [it] but a little <04705> while <04705>: our adversaries <06862> have trodden <0947> down thy sanctuary <04720>. 19 We are [thine]: thou never barest <04910> rule <04910> over them; they were not called <07121> by thy name <08034>. Isaiah 64 1. Oh <03863> that thou wouldest rend <07167> the heavens <08064>, that thou wouldest come <03381> down <03381>, that the mountains <02022> might flow <02151> down at thy presence <06440>, 2 As [when] the melting <02003> fire <0784> burneth <06919>, the fire <0784> causeth the waters <04325> to boil <01158>, to make thy name <08034> known <03045> to thine adversaries <06862>, [that] the nations <01471> may tremble <07264> at thy presence <06440>! 3 When thou didst <06213> terrible <03372> things [which] we looked <06960> not for, thou camest <03381> down <03381>, the mountains <02022> flowed <02151> down at thy presence <06440>. 4 For since the beginning <05769> of the world <05769> [men] have not heard <08085>, nor <03808> perceived <0238> by the ear <0238>, neither <03808> hath the eye <05869> seen <07200>, O God <0430>, beside <02108> thee, [what] he hath prepared <06213> for him that waiteth <02442> for him. 5 Thou meetest <06293> him that rejoiceth <07797> and worketh <06213> righteousness <06664>, [those that] remember <02142> thee in thy ways <01870>: behold <02005>, thou art wroth <07107>; for we have sinned <02398>: in those <01992> is continuance <05769>, and we shall be saved <03467>. 6. But we are all <03605> as an unclean <02931> [thing], and all <03605> our righteousnesses <06666> [are] as filthy <05708> rags <0899>; and we all <03605> do fade <05034> as a leaf <05929>; and our iniquities <05771>, like the wind <07307>, have taken <05375> us away. 7 And [there is] none <0369> that calleth <07121> upon thy name <08034>, that stirreth <05782> up himself to take <02388> hold <02388> of thee: for thou hast hid <05641> thy face <06440> from us, and hast consumed <04127> us, because <03027> of our iniquities <05771>. 8 But now <06258>, O LORD <03068>, thou [art] our father <01>; we [are] the clay <02563>, and thou our potter <03335>; and we all <03605> [are] the work <04639> of thy hand <03027>. 9 Be not wroth <07107> very <03966> sore <03966>, O LORD <03068>, neither <0408> remember <02142> iniquity <05771> for ever <05703>: behold <02005>, see <05027>, we beseech <04994> thee, we [are] all <03605> thy people <05971>. 10 Thy holy <06944> cities <05892> are a wilderness <04057>, Zion <06726> is a wilderness <04057>, Jerusalem <03389> a desolation <08077>. 11 Our holy <06944> and our beautiful <08597> house <01004>, where <0834> our fathers <01> praised <01984> thee, is burned <08316> up with fire <0784>: and all <03605> our pleasant <04261> things are laid waste <02723>. 12 Wilt thou refrain <0662> thyself for these <0428> [things], O LORD <03068>? wilt thou hold <02814> thy peace <02814>, and afflict <06031> us very <03966> sore <03966>? Isaiah 65 1. I am sought <01875> of [them that] asked <07592> not [for me]; I am found <04672> of [them that] sought <01245> me not: I said <0559>, Behold <02009> me, behold <02009> me, unto a nation <01471> [that] was not called <07121> by my name <08034>. 2 I have spread <06566> out my hands <03027> all <03605> the day <03117> unto a rebellious <05637> people <05971>, which walketh <01980> in a way <01870> [that was] not good <02896>, after <0310> their own thoughts <04284>; 3 A people <05971> that provoketh me to anger <03707> continually <08548> to my face <06440>; that sacrificeth <02076> in gardens <01593>, and burneth <06999> incense <06999> upon altars of brick <03843>; 4 Which remain <03427> among the graves <06913>, and lodge <03885> in the monuments <05341>, which eat <0398> swine's <02386> flesh <01320>, and broth <06564> of abominable <06292> [things is in] their vessels <03627>; 5 Which <0834> say <0559>, Stand <07126> by thyself, come <05066> not near <05066> to me; for I am holier <06942> than thou. These <0428> [are] a smoke <06227> in my nose <0639>, a fire <0784> that burneth <03344> all <03605> the day <03117>. 6 Behold <02009>, [it is] written <03789> before <06440> me: I will not keep silence <02814>, but will recompense <07999>, even recompense into <05921> their bosom <02436>, 7 Your iniquities <05771>, and the iniquities <05771> of your fathers <01> together <03162>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, which <0834> have burned <06999> incense <06999> upon the mountains <02022>, and blasphemed <02778> me upon the hills <01389>: therefore will I measure <04058> their former <07223> work <06468> into <05921> their bosom <02436>. 8. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, As the new <08492> wine <08492> is found <04672> in the cluster <0811>, and [one] saith <0559>, Destroy <07843> it not; for a blessing <01293> [is] in it: so <03651> will I do <06213> for my servants <05650>' sakes <06616>, that I may not destroy <07843> them all <03605>. 9 And I will bring <03318> forth <03318> a seed <02233> out of Jacob <03290>, and out of Judah <03063> an inheritor <03423> of my mountains <02022>: and mine elect <0972> shall inherit <03423> it, and my servants <05650> shall dwell <07931> there <08033>. 10 And Sharon <08289> shall be a fold <05116> of flocks <06629>, and the valley <06010> of Achor <05911> a place for the herds <01241> to lie <07258> down <07257> in, for my people <05971> that have sought <01875> me. 11. But ye [are] they that forsake <05800> the LORD <03068>, that forget <07913> my holy <06944> mountain <02022>, that prepare <06186> a table <07979> for that troop <01409>, and that furnish <04390> the drink <04469> offering unto that number <04507>. 12 Therefore will I number <04487> you to the sword <02719>, and ye shall all <03605> bow <03766> down <03766> to the slaughter <02875>: because <03282> when I called <07121>, ye did not answer <06030>; when I spake <01696>, ye did <06213> not hear <08085>; but did evil <07451> before mine eyes <05869>, and did <06213> choose <0977> [that] wherein <0834> I delighted <02654> not. 13 Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, Behold <02009>, my servants <05650> shall eat <0398>, but ye shall be hungry <07456>: behold <02009>, my servants <05650> shall drink <08354>, but ye shall be thirsty <06770>: behold <02009>, my servants <05650> shall rejoice <08055>, but ye shall be ashamed <0954>: 14 Behold <02009>, my servants <05650> shall sing <07442> for joy <02898> of heart <03820>, but ye shall cry <06817> for sorrow <03511> of heart <03820>, and shall howl <03213> for vexation <07667> of spirit <07307>. 15 And ye shall leave <03241> your name <08034> for a curse <07621> unto my chosen <0977>: for the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> shall slay <04191> thee, and call <07121> his servants <05650> by another <0312> name <08034>: 16 That he who <0834> blesseth <01288> himself in the earth <0776> shall bless <01288> himself in the God <0430> of truth <0548>; and he that sweareth <07650> in the earth <0776> shall swear <07650> by the God <0430> of truth <0548>; because <03588> the former <07223> troubles <06869> are forgotten <07911>, and because <03588> they are hid <05641> from mine eyes <05869>. 17. For, behold <02005>, I create <01254> new <02319> heavens <08064> and a new <02319> earth <0776>: and the former <07223> shall not be remembered <02142>, nor <03808> come <05927> into <05921> mind <03820>. 18 But be ye glad <07796> and rejoice <01523> for ever <05703> [in that] which <0834> I create <01254>: for, behold <02005>, I create <01254> Jerusalem <03389> a rejoicing <01525>, and her people <05971> a joy <04885>. 19 And I will rejoice <01523> in Jerusalem <03389>, and joy <07796> in my people <05971>: and the voice <06963> of weeping <01065> shall be no <03808> more <05750> heard <08085> in her, nor the voice <06963> of crying <02201>. 20 There shall be no <03808> more <05750> thence <08033> an infant <05764> of days <03117>, nor an old <02205> man that hath not filled <04390> his days <03117>: for the child <05288> shall die <04191> an hundred <03967> years <08141> old <01121>; but the sinner <02398> [being] an hundred <03967> years <08141> old <01121> shall be accursed <07043>. 21 And they shall build <01129> houses <01004>, and inhabit <03427> [them]; and they shall plant <05193> vineyards <03754>, and eat <0398> the fruit <06529> of them. 22 They shall not build <01129>, and another <0312> inhabit <03427>; they shall not plant <05193>, and another <0312> eat <0398>: for as the days <03117> of a tree <06086> [are] the days <03117> of my people <05971>, and mine elect <0972> shall long enjoy <01086> the work <04639> of their hands <03027>. 23 They shall not labour <03021> in vain <07385>, nor <03808> bring <03205> forth <03205> for trouble <0928>; for they [are] the seed <02233> of the blessed <01288> of the LORD <03068>, and their offspring <06631> with them. 24 And it shall come <01961> to pass, that before <02962> they call <07121>, I will answer <06030>; and while they are yet <05750> speaking <01696>, I will hear <08085>. 25 The wolf <02061> and the lamb <02924> shall feed <07462> together <0259>, and the lion <0738> shall eat <0398> straw <08401> like the bullock <01241>: and dust <06083> [shall be] the serpent's <05175> meat <03899>. They shall not hurt <07489> nor <03808> destroy <07843> in all <03605> my holy <06944> mountain <02022>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>. Isaiah 66 1. Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, The heaven <08064> [is] my throne <03678>, and the earth <0776> [is] my footstool: where <0335> [is] the house <01004> that ye build <01129> unto me? and where <0335> [is] the place <04725> of my rest <04496>? 2 For all <03605> those <0428> [things] hath mine hand <03027> made <06213>, and all <03605> those <0428> [things] have been <01961>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>: but to this <02088> [man] will I look <05027>, [even] to [him that is] poor <06041> and of a contrite <05223> spirit <07307>, and trembleth <02730> at <05921> my word <01697>. 3 He that killeth <07819> an ox <07794> [is as if] he slew <05221> a man <0376>; he that sacrificeth <02076> a lamb <07716>, [as if] he cut off a dog's <03611> neck <06202>; he that offereth <05927> an oblation <04503>, [as if he offered <05927>] swine's <02386> blood <01818>; he that burneth <02142> incense <03828>, [as if] he blessed <01288> an idol <0205>. Yea <01571>, they have chosen <0977> their own ways <01870>, and their soul <05315> delighteth <02654> in their abominations <08251>. 4 I also <01571> will choose <0977> their delusions <08586>, and will bring <0935> their fears <04035> upon them; because <03282> when I called <07121>, none <0369> did answer <06030>; when I spake <01696>, they did not hear <08085>: but they did <06213> evil <07451> before mine eyes <05869>, and chose <0977> [that] in which <0834> I delighted <02654> not. 5. Hear <08085> the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, ye that tremble <02730> at <0413> his word <01697>; Your brethren <0251> that hated <08130> you, that cast <05077> you out for my name's <08034> sake <04616>, said <0559>, Let the LORD <03068> be glorified <03513>: but he shall appear <07200> to your joy <08057>, and they shall be ashamed <0954>. 6 A voice <06963> of noise <07588> from the city <05892>, a voice <06963> from the temple <01964>, a voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> that rendereth <07999> recompence <01576> to his enemies <0341>. 7 Before <02962> she travailed <02342>, she brought <03205> forth <03205>; before <02962> her pain <02256> came <0935>, she was delivered <04422> of a man <02145> child. 8 Who <04310> hath heard <08085> such <02063> a thing? who <0834> hath seen <07200> such <0428> things? Shall the earth <0776> be made to bring <02342> forth <02342> in one <0259> day <03117>? [or] shall a nation <01471> be born <03205> at once <06471>? for as soon <01571> as Zion <06726> travailed <02342>, she brought <03205> forth <03205> her children <01121>. 9 Shall I bring <07665> to the birth <07665>, and not cause to bring <03205> forth <03205>? saith <0559> the LORD <03068>: shall I cause to bring <03205> forth <03205>, and shut <06113> [the womb]? saith <0559> thy God <0430>. 10 Rejoice <08055> ye with Jerusalem <03389>, and be glad <01528> with her, all <03605> ye that love <0157> her: rejoice <07797> for joy <04885> with her, all <03605> ye that mourn <056> for her: 11 That ye may suck <03243>, and be satisfied <07646> with the breasts <07699> of her consolations <08575>; that ye may milk <04711> out, and be delighted <06026> with the abundance <02123> of her glory <03519>. 12 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Behold <02005>, I will extend <05186> peace <07965> to her like a river <05104>, and the glory <03519> of the Gentiles <01471> like a flowing <07857> stream <05158>: then shall ye suck <03243>, ye shall be borne <05375> upon [her] sides <06654>, and be dandled <08173> upon [her] knees <01290>. 13 As one <0376> whom <0834> his mother <0517> comforteth <05162>, so <03651> will I comfort <05162> you; and ye shall be comforted <05162> in Jerusalem <03389>. 14 And when ye see <07200> [this], your heart <03820> shall rejoice <07797>, and your bones <06106> shall flourish <06524> like an herb <01877>: and the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> shall be known <03045> toward <0854> his servants <05650>, and [his] indignation <02194> toward <0854> his enemies <0341>. 15. For, behold <02009>, the LORD <03068> will come <0935> with fire <0784>, and with his chariots <04818> like a whirlwind <05492>, to render <07725> his anger <0639> with fury <02534>, and his rebuke <01606> with flames <03851> of fire <0784>. 16 For by fire <0784> and by his sword <02719> will the LORD <03068> plead <08199> with all <03605> flesh <01320>: and the slain <02491> of the LORD <03068> shall be many <07231>. 17 They that sanctify <06942> themselves, and purify <02891> themselves in the gardens <01593> behind <0310> one <0259> [tree] in the midst <08432>, eating <0398> swine's <02386> flesh <01320>, and the abomination <08263>, and the mouse <05909>, shall be consumed <05486> together <03162>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>. 18 For I [know] their works <04639> and their thoughts <04284>: it shall come <0935>, that I will gather <06908> all <03605> nations <01471> and tongues <03956>; and they shall come <0935>, and see <07200> my glory <03519>. 19 And I will set <07760> a sign <0226> among them, and I will send <07971> those <01992> that escape <06412> of them unto the nations <01471>, [to] Tarshish <08659>, Pul <06322>, and Lud <03865>, that draw <04900> the bow <07198>, [to] Tubal <08422>, and Javan <03120>, [to] the isles <0339> afar <07350> off, that have not heard <08085> my fame <08088>, neither <03808> have seen <07200> my glory <03519>; and they shall declare <05046> my glory <03519> among the Gentiles <01471>. 20 And they shall bring <0935> all <03605> your brethren <0251> [for] an offering <04503> unto the LORD <03068> out of all <03605> nations <01471> upon horses <05483>, and in chariots <07393>, and in litters <06632>, and upon mules <06505>, and upon swift <03753> beasts <03753>, to my holy <06944> mountain <02022> Jerusalem <03389>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, as the children <01121> of Israel <03478> bring <0935> an offering <04503> in a clean <02889> vessel <03627> into the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>. 21 And I will also <01571> take <03947> of them for priests <03548> [and] for Levites <03881>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>. 22 For as the new <02319> heavens <08064> and the new <02319> earth <0776>, which <0834> I will make <06213>, shall remain <05975> before <06440> me, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, so <03651> shall your seed <02233> and your name <08034> remain <05975>. 23 And it shall come <01961> to pass, [that] from one new <02320> moon <02320> to another, and from one sabbath <07676> to another, shall all <03605> flesh <01320> come <0935> to worship <07812> before <06440> me, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>. 24 And they shall go <03318> forth <03318>, and look <07200> upon the carcases <06297> of the men <0582> that have transgressed <06586> against me: for their worm <08438> shall not die <04191>, neither <03808> shall their fire <0784> be quenched <03518>; and they shall be an abhorring <01860> unto all <03605> flesh <01320>.     ~~~~~~
