as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

: Isaiah 1

: 1 . The vision <2377 chazown > of Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah >

the son <1121 ben > of Amoz <0531 >Amowts > , which <0834 >aher

> he saw <2372 chazah > concerning <5921 <al > Judah <3063

Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > in the days <3117

yowm > of Uzziah <5818 <Uzziyah > , Jotham <3147 Yowtham > ,

Ahaz <0271 >Achaz > , [ and ] Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > ,

kings <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

: 2 . Hear <8085 shama< > , O heavens <8064 shamayim > , and

give ear <0238 >azan > , O earth <0776 >erets > : for the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > hath spoken <1696 dabar > , I have nourished

<1431 gadal > and brought <7311 ruwm > up children <1121 ben > ,

and they have rebelled <6586 pasha< > against me .

: 3 The ox <7794 showr > knoweth <3045 yada< > his owner <7069

qanah > , and the ass <2543 chamowr > his master s <1167 ba<al

> crib <18> : [ but ] Israel <3478 Yisra>el > doth not know

<3045 yada< > , my people <5971 <am > doth not consider <0995

biyn > .

: 4 Ah <1945 howy > sinful <2398 chata> > nation <1471 gowy > ,

a people <5971 <am > laden <3515 kabed > with iniquity <5771

<avon > , a seed <2233 zera< > of evildoers <7489 ra<a< > ,

children <1121 ben > that are corrupters <7843 shachath > : they

have forsaken <5800 <azab > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , they

have provoked <5006 na>ats > the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of

Israel <3478 Yisra>el > unto anger <5006 na>ats > , they are

gone <2114 zuwr > away backward <0268 >achowr > .

: 5 Why should ye be stricken <5221 nakah > any more <5750 <owd

> ? ye will revolt <5627 carah > more and more : the whole

<3605 kol > head <7218 ro>sh > is sick <2483 choliy > , and the

whole <3605 kol > heart <3824 lebab > faint <1742 davvay > .

: 6 From the sole <3709 kaph > of the foot <7272 regel > even

unto the head <7218 ro>sh > [ there is ] no <0369 >ayin >

soundness <4974 m@thom > in it ; [ but ] wounds <6482 petsa<

> , and bruises <2250 chabbuwrah > , and putrifying <2961

tariy > sores <4347 makkah > : they have not been closed <2115

zuwr > , neither <3808 lo> > bound <2280 chabash > up ,

neither <3808 lo> > mollified <7401 rakak > with ointment <8081

shemen > .

: 7 Your country <0776 >erets > [ is ] desolate <8077

sh@mamah > , your cities <5892 <iyr > [ are ] burned <8313

saraph > with fire <0784 >esh > : your land <0127 >adamah > ,

strangers <2114 zuwr > devour <0398 >akal > it in your presence

<5048 neged > , and [ it is ] desolate <8077 sh@mamah > , as

overthrown <4114 mahpekah > by strangers <2114 zuwr > .

: 8 And the daughter <1323 bath > of Zion <6726 Tsiyown > is

left <3498 yathar > as a cottage <5521 cukkah > in a vineyard

<3754 kerem > , as a lodge <4412 m@luwnah > in a garden of

cucumbers <4750 miqshah > , as a besieged <5341 natsar > city

<5892 <iyr > .

: 9 Except <3884 luwle> > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> > had left <3498 yathar > unto us a very <4592

m@<at > small <4592 m@<at > remnant <8300 sariyd > , we should

have been <1961 hayah > as Sodom <5467 C@dom > , [ and ] we

should have been like <1819 damah > unto Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah

> .

: 10 . Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > , ye rulers <7101 qatsiyn > of Sodom <5467

C@dom > ; give ear <0238 >azan > unto the law <8451 towrah > of

our God <0430 >elohiym > , ye people <5971 <am > of Gomorrah

<6017 <Amorah > .

: 11 To what <4100 mah > purpose [ is ] the multitude <7230

rob > of your sacrifices <2077 zebach > unto me ? saith <0559

>amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : I am full <7646 saba< > of

the burnt <5930 <olah > offerings of rams <0352 >ayil > , and

the fat <2459 cheleb > of fed <4806 m@riy> > beasts <4806 m@riy>

of bullocks <6499 par > , or of lambs <3532 kebes > , or of he

goats <6260 <attuwd > .

: 12 When <3588 kiy > ye come <0935 bow> > to appear <7200

ra>ah > before <6440 paniym > me , who <4310 miy > hath

required <1245 baqash > this <2063 zo>th > at your hand <3027

yad > , to tread <7429 ramac > my courts <2691 chatser > ?

: 13 Bring <0935 bow> > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > vain

<7723 shav> > oblations <4503 minchah > ; incense <7004

q@toreth > is an abomination <8441 tow<ebah > unto me ; the new

<2320 chodesh > moons <2320 chodesh > and sabbaths <7676

shabbath > , the calling <7121 qara> > of assemblies <4744

miqra> > , I cannot away with ; [ it is ] iniquity <0205

>aven > , even the solemn <2282 chag > meeting <6116 <atsarah >

: 14 Your new <2320 chodesh > moons <2320 chodesh > and your

appointed <4150 mow<ed > feasts my soul <5315 nephesh > hateth

<8130 sane> > : they are a trouble <2960 torach > unto me ; I

am weary <3811 la>ah > to bear <5375 nasa> > [ them ] .

: 15 And when ye spread <6566 paras > forth your hands <3709

kaph > , I will hide <5956 <alam > mine eyes <5869 <ayin > from

you : yea <1571 gam > , when <3588 kiy > ye make many <7235

rabah > prayers <8605 t@phillah > , I will not hear <8085

shama< > : your hands <3027 yad > are full <4390 male> > of

blood <1818 dam > .

: 16 . Wash <7364 rachats > you , make you clean <2135 zakah

> ; put <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the evil <7455 roa< > of

your doings <4611 ma<alal > from before <5048 neged > mine eyes

<5869 <ayin > ; cease <2308 chadal > to do evil <7489 ra<a< > ;

: 17 Learn <3925 lamad > to do well <3190 yatab > ; seek <1875

darash > judgment <4941 mishpat > , relieve <0833 >ashar > the

oppressed <2541 chamowts > , judge <8199 shaphat > the

fatherless <3490 yathowm > , plead <7378 riyb > for the widow

<0490 >almanah > .

: 18 Come <3212 yalak > now <4994 na> > , and let us reason

<3198 yakach > together , saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > : though <0518 >im > your sins <2399 chet> > be as

scarlet <8144 shaniy > , they shall be as white <3835 laban >

as snow <7950 sheleg > ; though <0518 >im > they be red <0119

>adam > like <1819 damah > crimson <8438 towla< > , they shall

be as wool <6785 tsemer > .

: 19 If <0518 >im > ye be willing <14> and obedient <8085

shama< > , ye shall eat <0398 >akal > the good <2898 tuwb > of

the land <0776 >erets > :

: 20 But if <0518 >im > ye refuse <3985 ma>en > and rebel <4784

marah > , ye shall be devoured <0398 >akal > with the sword

<2719 chereb > : for the mouth <6310 peh > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath spoken <1696 dabar > [ it ] .

: 21 . How <0349 >eyk > is the faithful <0539 >aman > city

<7151 qiryah > become <1961 hayah > an harlot <2181 zanah > !

it was full <4392 male> > of judgment <4941 mishpat > ;

righteousness <6664 tsedeq > lodged <3885 luwn > in it ; but

now <6258 <attah > murderers <7523 ratsach > .

: 22 Thy silver <3701 keceph > is become <1961 hayah > dross

<5509 ciyg > , thy wine <5435 cobe> > mixed <4107 mahal > with

water <4325 mayim > :

: 23 Thy princes <8269 sar > [ are ] rebellious <5637 carar >

, and companions <2270 chaber > of thieves <1590 gannab > :

every <3605 kol > one loveth <0157 >ahab > gifts <7810 shachad >

, and followeth <7291 radaph > after rewards <8021 shalmon > :

they judge <8199 shaphat > not the fatherless <3490 yathowm > ,

neither <3808 lo> > doth the cause <7379 riyb > of the widow

<0490 >almanah > come <0935 bow> > unto them .

: 24 Therefore <3651 ken > saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0113

>adown > , the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,

the mighty <46> One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , Ah <1945 howy

tsar > , and avenge <5358 naqam > me of mine enemies <0341

>oyeb > :

: 25 And I will turn <7725 shuwb > my hand <3027 yad > upon

thee , and purely <1252 bor > purge <6884 tsaraph > away thy

dross <5509 ciyg > , and take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr >

all <3605 kol > thy tin <0913 b@diyl > :

: 26 And I will restore <7725 shuwb > thy judges <8199 shaphat

ya<ats > as at the beginning <8462 t@chillah > : afterward thou

shalt be called <7121 qara> > , The city <5892 <iyr > of

righteousness <6664 tsedeq > , the faithful <0539 >aman > city

<7151 qiryah > .

: 27 Zion <6726 Tsiyown > shall be redeemed <6299 padah > with

judgment <4941 mishpat > , and her converts <7725 shuwb > with

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > .

: 28 And the destruction <7667 sheber > of the transgressors

<6586 pasha< > and of the sinners <2400 chatta> > [ shall be ]

together <3162 yachad > , and they that forsake <5800 <azab >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall be consumed <3615 kalah > .

: 29 For they shall be ashamed <0954 buwsh > of the oaks <0352

>ayil > which <0834 >aher > ye have desired <2530 chamad > ,

and ye shall be confounded <2659 chapher > for the gardens <1593

gannah > that ye have chosen <0977 bachar > .

: 30 For ye shall be as an oak <0424 >elah > whose leaf <5929

<aleh > fadeth <5034 nabel > , and as a garden <1593 gannah >

that hath no <0369 >ayin > water <4325 mayim > .

: 31 And the strong <2634 chacon > shall be as tow <5296

n@<oreth > , and the maker <6467 po<al > of it as a spark <5213

niytsowts > , and they shall both <8147 sh@nayim > burn <1197

quench <3518 kabah > [ them ] .

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > , Behold <2005 hen

and there shall be heaviness <8386 ta>aniyah > and sorrow <0592

thy speech <0565 >imrah > shall whisper <6850 tsaphaph > out of

the dust <6083 <aphar > .

: 5 Moreover the multitude <1995 hamown > of thy strangers

<2114 zuwr > shall be like small <1851 daq > dust <80> , and

the multitude <1995 hamown > of the terrible <6184 <ariyts >

Forasmuch as this people <5971 <am > draw near <5066 nagash > [

: 16 Surely <0518 >im > your turning <2017 hophek > of things
