Isaiah 1 1. The vision <2377> of Isaiah <3470> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531>, which <0834> he saw <2372> concerning <5921> Judah <3063> and Jerusalem <3389> in the days <3117> of Uzziah <5818>, Jotham <3147>, Ahaz <0271>, [and] Hezekiah <2396>, kings <4428> of Judah <3063>. 2. Hear <8085>, O heavens <8064>, and give ear <0238>, O earth <0776>: for the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696>, I have nourished <1431> and brought <7311> up children <1121>, and they have rebelled <6586> against me. 3 The ox <7794> knoweth <3045> his owner <7069>, and the ass <2543> his master's <1167> crib <18>: [but] Israel <3478> doth not know <3045>, my people <5971> doth not consider <0995>. 4 Ah <1945> sinful <2398> nation <1471>, a people <5971> laden <3515> with iniquity <5771>, a seed <2233> of evildoers <7489>, children <1121> that are corrupters <7843>: they have forsaken <5800> the LORD <3068>, they have provoked <5006> the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478> unto anger <5006>, they are gone <2114> away backward <0268>. 5 Why should ye be stricken <5221> any more <5750>? ye will revolt <5627> more and more: the whole <3605> head <7218> is sick <2483>, and the whole <3605> heart <3824> faint <1742>. 6 From the sole <3709> of the foot <7272> even unto the head <7218> [there is] no <0369> soundness <4974> in it; [but] wounds <6482>, and bruises <2250>, and putrifying <2961> sores <4347>: they have not been closed <2115>, neither <3808> bound <2280> up, neither <3808> mollified <7401> with ointment <8081>. 7 Your country <0776> [is] desolate <8077>, your cities <5892> [are] burned <8313> with fire <0784>: your land <0127>, strangers <2114> devour <0398> it in your presence <5048>, and [it is] desolate <8077>, as overthrown <4114> by strangers <2114>. 8 And the daughter <1323> of Zion <6726> is left <3498> as a cottage <5521> in a vineyard <3754>, as a lodge <4412> in a garden of cucumbers <4750>, as a besieged <5341> city <5892>. 9 Except <3884> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> had left <3498> unto us a very <4592> small <4592> remnant <8300>, we should have been <1961> as Sodom <5467>, [and] we should have been like <1819> unto Gomorrah <6017>. 10. Hear <8085> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068>, ye rulers <7101> of Sodom <5467>; give ear <0238> unto the law <8451> of our God <0430>, ye people <5971> of Gomorrah <6017>. 11 To what <4100> purpose [is] the multitude <7230> of your sacrifices <2077> unto me? saith <0559> the LORD <3068>: I am full <7646> of the burnt <5930> offerings of rams <0352>, and the fat <2459> of fed <4806> beasts <4806>; and I delight <2654> not in the blood <1818> of bullocks <6499>, or of lambs <3532>, or of he goats <6260>. 12 When <3588> ye come <0935> to appear <7200> before <6440> me, who <4310> hath required <1245> this <2063> at your hand <3027>, to tread <7429> my courts <2691>? 13 Bring <0935> no <3808> more <5750> vain <7723> oblations <4503>; incense <7004> is an abomination <8441> unto me; the new <2320> moons <2320> and sabbaths <7676>, the calling <7121> of assemblies <4744>, I cannot away with; [it is] iniquity <0205>, even the solemn <2282> meeting <6116>. 14 Your new <2320> moons <2320> and your appointed <4150> feasts my soul <5315> hateth <8130>: they are a trouble <2960> unto me; I am weary <3811> to bear <5375> [them]. 15 And when ye spread <6566> forth your hands <3709>, I will hide <5956> mine eyes <5869> from you: yea <1571>, when <3588> ye make many <7235> prayers <8605>, I will not hear <8085>: your hands <3027> are full <4390> of blood <1818>. 16. Wash <7364> you, make you clean <2135>; put <5493> away <5493> the evil <7455> of your doings <4611> from before <5048> mine eyes <5869>; cease <2308> to do evil <7489>; 17 Learn <3925> to do well <3190>; seek <1875> judgment <4941>, relieve <0833> the oppressed <2541>, judge <8199> the fatherless <3490>, plead <7378> for the widow <0490>. 18 Come <3212> now <4994>, and let us reason <3198> together, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>: though <0518> your sins <2399> be as scarlet <8144>, they shall be as white <3835> as snow <7950>; though <0518> they be red <0119> like <1819> crimson <8438>, they shall be as wool <6785>. 19 If <0518> ye be willing <14> and obedient <8085>, ye shall eat <0398> the good <2898> of the land <0776>: 20 But if <0518> ye refuse <3985> and rebel <4784>, ye shall be devoured <0398> with the sword <2719>: for the mouth <6310> of the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> [it]. 21. How <0349> is the faithful <0539> city <7151> become <1961> an harlot <2181>! it was full <4392> of judgment <4941>; righteousness <6664> lodged <3885> in it; but now <6258> murderers <7523>. 22 Thy silver <3701> is become <1961> dross <5509>, thy wine <5435> mixed <4107> with water <4325>: 23 Thy princes <8269> [are] rebellious <5637>, and companions <2270> of thieves <1590>: every <3605> one loveth <0157> gifts <7810>, and followeth <7291> after rewards <8021>: they judge <8199> not the fatherless <3490>, neither <3808> doth the cause <7379> of the widow <0490> come <0935> unto them. 24 Therefore <3651> saith <5002> the Lord <0113>, the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, the mighty <46> One of Israel <3478>, Ah <1945>, I will ease <5162> me of mine adversaries <6862>, and avenge <5358> me of mine enemies <0341>: 25 And I will turn <7725> my hand <3027> upon thee, and purely <1252> purge <6884> away thy dross <5509>, and take <5493> away <5493> all <3605> thy tin <0913>: 26 And I will restore <7725> thy judges <8199> as at the first <7223>, and thy counsellors <3289> as at the beginning <8462>: afterward thou shalt be called <7121>, The city <5892> of righteousness <6664>, the faithful <0539> city <7151>. 27 Zion <6726> shall be redeemed <6299> with judgment <4941>, and her converts <7725> with righteousness <6666>. 28 And the destruction <7667> of the transgressors <6586> and of the sinners <2400> [shall be] together <3162>, and they that forsake <5800> the LORD <3068> shall be consumed <3615>. 29 For they shall be ashamed <0954> of the oaks <0352> which <0834> ye have desired <2530>, and ye shall be confounded <2659> for the gardens <1593> that ye have chosen <0977>. 30 For ye shall be as an oak <0424> whose leaf <5929> fadeth <5034>, and as a garden <1593> that hath no <0369> water <4325>. 31 And the strong <2634> shall be as tow <5296>, and the maker <6467> of it as a spark <5213>, and they shall both <8147> burn <1197> together <3162>, and none <0369> shall quench <3518> [them]. Isaiah 2 1. The word <1697> that Isaiah <3470> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531> saw <2372> concerning <5921> Judah <3063> and Jerusalem <3389>. 2 And it shall come <1961> to pass in the last <0319> days <3117>, [that] the mountain <2022> of the LORD'S <3068> house <1004> shall be established <3559> in the top <7218> of the mountains <2022>, and shall be exalted <5375> above the hills <1389>; and all <3605> nations <1471> shall flow <5102> unto it. 3 And many <7227> people <5971> shall go <1980> and say <0559>, Come <3212> ye, and let us go <5927> up to the mountain <2022> of the LORD <3068>, to the house <1004> of the God <0430> of Jacob <3290>; and he will teach <3384> us of his ways <1870>, and we will walk <3212> in his paths <0734>: for out of Zion <6726> shall go <3318> forth <3318> the law <8451>, and the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> from Jerusalem <3389>. 4 And he shall judge <8199> among <0996> the nations <1471>, and shall rebuke <3198> many <7227> people <5971>: and they shall beat <3807> their swords <2719> into plowshares <0855>, and their spears <2595> into pruninghooks <4211>: nation <1471> shall not lift <5375> up sword <2719> against <0413> nation <1471>, neither <3808> shall they learn <3925> war <4421> any more <5750>. 5 O house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, come <3212> ye, and let us walk <3212> in the light <0216> of the LORD <3068>. 6. Therefore thou hast forsaken <5203> thy people <5971> the house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, because <3588> they be replenished <4390> from the east <6924>, and [are] soothsayers <6049> like the Philistines <6430>, and they please <5606> themselves in the children <3206> of strangers <5237>. 7 Their land <0776> also is full <4390> of silver <3701> and gold <2091>, neither <3808> [is there any] end <7097> of their treasures <0214>; their land <0776> is also full <4390> of horses <5483>, neither <3808> [is there any] end <7097> of their chariots <4818>: 8 Their land <0776> also is full <4390> of idols <0457>; they worship <7812> the work <4639> of their own hands <3027>, that which <0834> their own fingers <0676> have made <6213>: 9 And the mean <0120> man <1201> boweth <7817> down <7817>, and the great man <0376> humbleth <8213> himself: therefore forgive <5375> them not. 10. Enter <0935> into the rock <6697>, and hide <2934> thee in the dust <6083>, for fear <6343> of the LORD <3068>, and for the glory <1926> of his majesty <1347>. 11 The lofty <1365> looks <5869> of man <0120> shall be humbled <8213>, and the haughtiness <7312> of men <0582> shall be bowed <7817> down <7817>, and the LORD <3068> alone <0905> shall be exalted <7682> in that day <3117>. 12 For the day <3117> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> [shall be] upon every <3605> [one that is] proud <1343> and lofty <7311>, and upon every <3605> [one that is] lifted <5375> up; and he shall be brought <8213> low <8213>: 13 And upon all <3605> the cedars <0730> of Lebanon <3844>, [that are] high <7311> and lifted <5375> up, and upon all <3605> the oaks <0437> of Bashan <1316>, 14 And upon all <3605> the high <7311> mountains <2022>, and upon all <3605> the hills <1389> [that are] lifted <5375> up, 15 And upon every <3605> high <1364> tower <4026>, and upon every <3605> fenced <1219> wall <2346>, 16 And upon all <3605> the ships <0591> of Tarshish <8659>, and upon all <3605> pleasant <2532> pictures <7914>. 17 And the loftiness <1365> of man <0120> shall be bowed <7817> down <7817>, and the haughtiness <7312> of men <0582> shall be made low <8213>: and the LORD <3068> alone <0905> shall be exalted <7682> in that day <3117>. 18 And the idols <0457> he shall utterly <3632> abolish <2498>. 19 And they shall go <0935> into the holes <4631> of the rocks <6697>, and into the caves <4247> of the earth <6083>, for fear <6343> of the LORD <3068>, and for the glory <1926> of his majesty <1347>, when he ariseth <6965> to shake <6206> terribly <6206> the earth <0776>. 20 In that day <3117> a man <0120> shall cast <7993> his idols <0457> of silver <3701>, and his idols <0457> of gold <2091>, which <0834> they made [each one] for himself to worship <7812>, to the moles <2661> and to the bats <5847>; 21 To go <0935> into the clefts <5366> of the rocks <6697>, and into the tops <5585> of the ragged rocks <5553>, for fear <6343> of the LORD <3068>, and for the glory <1926> of his majesty <1347>, when he ariseth <6965> to shake <6206> terribly <6206> the earth <0776>. 22 Cease <2308> ye from man <0120>, whose <0834> breath <5397> [is] in his nostrils <0639>: for wherein <4100> is he to be accounted <2803> of? Isaiah 3 1. For, behold <2009>, the Lord <0113>, the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, doth take <5493> away <5493> from Jerusalem <3389> and from Judah <3063> the stay <4937> and the staff <4938>, the whole <3605> stay <8172> of bread <3899>, and the whole <3605> stay <4937> of water <4325>, 2 The mighty <1368> man, and the man <0376> of war <4421>, the judge <8199>, and the prophet <5030>, and the prudent <7080>, and the ancient <2204>, 3 The captain <8269> of fifty <2572>, and the honourable man, and the counsellor <3289>, and the cunning <2450> artificer <2796>, and the eloquent <0995> orator <3908>. 4 And I will give <5414> children <5288> [to be] their princes <8269>, and babes <8586> shall rule <4910> over them. 5 And the people <5971> shall be oppressed <5065>, every <0376> one <0376> by another, and every <0376> one <0376> by his neighbour <7453>: the child <5288> shall behave <7292> himself proudly <7292> against the ancient <2204>, and the base <7034> against the honourable <3519>. 6 When <3588> a man <0376> shall take <8610> hold <8610> of his brother <0251> of the house <1004> of his father <1>, [saying], Thou hast clothing <8071>, be thou our ruler <7101>, and [let] this <2063> ruin <4384> [be] under <8478> thy hand <3027>: 7 In that day <3117> shall he swear <5375>, saying <0559>, I will not be an healer <2280>; for in my house <1004> [is] neither <0369> bread <3899> nor <0369> clothing <8071>: make <7760> me not a ruler <7101> of the people <5971>. 8 For Jerusalem <3389> is ruined <3782>, and Judah <3063> is fallen <5307>: because <3588> their tongue <3956> and their doings <4611> [are] against <0413> the LORD <3068>, to provoke <4784> the eyes <5869> of his glory <3519>. 9. The shew <1971> of their countenance <6440> doth witness <5707> against them; and they declare <5046> their sin <2403> as Sodom <5467>, they hide <3582> [it] not. Woe <0188> unto their soul <5315>! for they have rewarded <1580> evil <7451> unto themselves <1992>. 10 Say <0559> ye to the righteous <6662>, that [it shall be] well <2896> [with him]: for they shall eat <0398> the fruit <6529> of their doings <4611>. 11 Woe <0188> unto the wicked <7563>! [it shall be] ill <7451> [with him]: for the reward <1576> of his hands <3027> shall be given <6213> him. 12 [As for] my people <5971>, children <5768> [are] their oppressors <5065>, and women <0802> rule <4910> over them. O my people <5971>, they which lead <0833> thee cause [thee] to err <8582>, and destroy <1104> the way <1870> of thy paths <0734>. 13 The LORD <3068> standeth <5324> up to plead <7378>, and standeth <5975> to judge <1777> the people <5971>. 14 The LORD <3068> will enter <0935> into judgment <4941> with the ancients <2204> of his people <5971>, and the princes <8269> thereof: for ye have eaten <0398> up the vineyard <3754>; the spoil <1500> of the poor <6041> [is] in your houses <1004>. 15 What <4100> mean ye [that] ye beat <1792> my people <5971> to pieces, and grind <2912> the faces <6440> of the poor <6041>? saith <5002> the Lord <3068> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635>. 16. Moreover the LORD <3068> saith <0559>, Because the daughters <1121> of Zion <6726> are haughty <1361>, and walk <3212> with stretched <5186> forth necks <1627> and wanton <8265> eyes <5869>, walking <1980> and mincing <2952> [as] they go <3212>, and making a tinkling <5913> with their feet <7272>: 17 Therefore the Lord <0136> will smite <5596> with a scab <5597> the crown <6936> of the head <6936> of the daughters <1121> of Zion <6726>, and the LORD <3068> will discover <6168> their secret <6596> parts. 18 In that day <3117> the Lord <0136> will take <5493> away <5493> the bravery <8597> of [their] tinkling ornaments <5914> [about their feet], and [their] cauls <7636>, and [their] round <7720> tires <7720> like the moon, 19 The chains <5188>, and the bracelets <8285>, and the mufflers <7479>, 20 The bonnets <6287>, and the ornaments <6807> of the legs <6807>, and the headbands <7196>, and the tablets, and the earrings <3908>, 21 The rings <2885>, and nose <0639> jewels <5141>, 22 The changeable <4254> suits of apparel <4254>, and the mantles <4595>, and the wimples <4304>, and the crisping <2754> pins, 23 The glasses <1549>, and the fine linen <5466>, and the hoods <6797>, and the vails <7289>. 24 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] instead <8478> of sweet <1314> smell <1314> there shall be stink <4716>; and instead <8478> of a girdle <2290> a rent <5364>; and instead <8478> of well <4639> set hair <4748> baldness <7144>; and instead <8478> of a stomacher <6614> a girding <4228> of sackcloth <8242>; [and] burning <3587> instead <8478> of beauty <3308>. 25 Thy men <4962> shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>, and thy mighty <1369> in the war <4421>. 26 And her gates <6607> shall lament <0578> and mourn <56>; and she [being] desolate <5352> shall sit <3427> upon the ground <0776>. Isaiah 4 1. And in that day <3117> seven <7651> women <0802> shall take <2388> hold <2388> of one <0259> man <0376>, saying <0559>, We will eat <0398> our own bread <3899>, and wear <3847> our own apparel <8071>: only <7535> let us be called <7121> by thy name <8034>, to take <0622> away our reproach <2781>. 2. In that day <3117> shall the branch <6780> of the LORD <3068> be beautiful <6643> and glorious <3519>, and the fruit <6529> of the earth <0776> [shall be] excellent <1347> and comely <8597> for them that are escaped <6413> of Israel <3478>. 3 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that he that is] left <7604> in Zion <6726>, and [he that] remaineth <3498> in Jerusalem <3389>, shall be called <0559> holy <6918>, [even] every <3605> one that is written <3789> among the living <2416> in Jerusalem <3389>: 4 When <0518> the Lord <0136> shall have washed <7364> away the filth <6675> of the daughters <1121> of Zion <6726>, and shall have purged <1740> the blood <1818> of Jerusalem <3389> from the midst <7130> thereof by the spirit <7307> of judgment <4941>, and by the spirit <7307> of burning <1197>. 5 And the LORD <3068> will create <1254> upon every <3605> dwelling <4349> place of mount <2022> Zion <6726>, and upon her assemblies <4744>, a cloud <6051> and smoke <6227> by day <3119>, and the shining <5051> of a flaming <3852> fire <0784> by night <3915>: for upon all <3605> the glory <3519> [shall be] a defence <2646>. 6 And there shall be a tabernacle <5521> for a shadow <6738> in the daytime <3119> from the heat <2721>, and for a place of refuge <4268>, and for a covert <4563> from storm <2230> and from rain <4306>. Isaiah 5 1. Now <4994> will I sing <7891> to my wellbeloved <3039> a song <7892> of my beloved <1730> touching his vineyard <3754>. My wellbeloved <3039> hath a vineyard <3754> in a very fruitful hill <7161>: 2 And he fenced <5823> it, and gathered out the stones <5619> thereof, and planted <5193> it with the choicest <8321> vine <8321>, and built <1129> a tower <4026> in the midst <8432> of it, and also <1571> made <2672> a winepress <3342> therein <8432>: and he looked <6960> that it should bring <6213> forth <6213> grapes <6025>, and it brought <6213> forth <6213> wild <0891> grapes <0891>. 3 And now <6258>, O inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>, and men <0376> of Judah <3063>, judge <8199>, I pray <4994> you, betwixt <0996> me and my vineyard <3754>. 4 What <4100> could have been done <6466> more <5750> to my vineyard <3754>, that I have not done <6466> in it? wherefore <4069>, when I looked <6960> that it should bring <6213> forth <6213> grapes <6025>, brought <6213> it forth <6213> wild <0891> grapes <0891>? 5 And now <6258> go to; I will tell <3045> you what I will do <6213> to my vineyard <3754>: I will take <5493> away <5493> the hedge <4881> thereof, and it shall be eaten <0398> up; [and] break <6555> down the wall <1447> thereof, and it shall be trodden <4823> down: 6 And I will lay it waste <1326>: it shall not be pruned <2167>, nor <3808> digged <5737>; but there shall come <5927> up briers <8068> and thorns <7898>: I will also command <6680> the clouds <5645> that they rain <4305> no rain <4306> upon it. 7 For the vineyard <3754> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> [is] the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, and the men <0376> of Judah <3063> his pleasant <8191> plant <5194>: and he looked <6970> for judgment <4941>, but behold <2009> oppression <4939>; for righteousness <6666>, but behold <2009> a cry <6818>. 8. Woe <1945> unto them that join <5060> house <1004> to house <1004>, [that] lay <7126> field <7704> to field <7704>, till <5704> [there be] no <0675> place <4725>, that they may be placed <3427> alone <0905> in the midst <7130> of the earth <0776>! 9 In mine ears <0241> [said] the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, Of a truth many <7227> houses <1004> shall be desolate <8047>, [even] great <1419> and fair <2896>, without <0369> inhabitant <3427>. 10 Yea <3588>, ten <6235> acres <6776> of vineyard <3754> shall yield <6213> one <0259> bath <1324>, and the seed <2233> of an homer <2563> shall yield <6213> an ephah <0374>. 11 Woe <1945> unto them that rise <7925> up early <7925> in the morning <1242>, [that] they may follow <7291> strong drink <7941>; that continue <0309> until night <5399>, [till] wine <3196> inflame <1814> them! 12 And the harp <3658>, and the viol <5035>, the tabret <8596>, and pipe <2485>, and wine <3196>, are in their feasts <4960>: but they regard <5027> not the work <6467> of the LORD <3068>, neither <3808> consider <7200> the operation <4639> of his hands <3027>. 13 Therefore <3651> my people <5971> are gone into captivity <1540>, because [they have] no <1097> knowledge <1847>: and their honourable <3519> men <4962> [are] famished <7458>, and their multitude <1995> dried <6704> up with thirst <6772>. 14 Therefore <3651> hell <7585> hath enlarged <7337> herself <5315>, and opened <6473> her mouth <6310> without <1097> measure <2706>: and their glory <1926>, and their multitude <1995>, and their pomp <7588>, and he that rejoiceth <5937>, shall descend <3381> into it. 15 And the mean <0120> man <0120> shall be brought <7817> down <7817>, and the mighty <0376> man <0376> shall be humbled <8213>, and the eyes <5869> of the lofty <1364> shall be humbled <8213>: 16 But the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> shall be exalted <1361> in judgment <4941>, and God <0410> that is holy <6918> shall be sanctified <6942> in righteousness <6666>. 17 Then shall the lambs <3532> feed <7462> after their manner <1699>, and the waste <2723> places of the fat <4220> ones shall strangers <1481> eat <0398>. 18. Woe <1945> unto them that draw <4900> iniquity <5771> with cords <2256> of vanity <7723>, and sin <2402> as it were with a cart <5699> rope <5688>: 19 That say <0559>, Let him make speed <4116>, [and] hasten <2363> his work <4639>, that we may see <7200> [it]: and let the counsel <6098> of the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478> draw nigh <7126> and come <0935>, that we may know <3045> [it]! 20 Woe <1945> unto them that call <0559> evil <7451> good <2896>, and good <2896> evil <7451>; that put <7760> darkness <2822> for light <0216>, and light <0216> for darkness <2822>; that put <7760> bitter <4751> for sweet <4966>, and sweet <4966> for bitter <4751>! 21 Woe <1945> unto [them that are] wise <2450> in their own eyes <5869>, and prudent <0995> in their own sight <6440>! 22 Woe <1945> unto [them that are] mighty <1368> to drink <8354> wine <3196>, and men <0582> of strength <2428> to mingle <4537> strong drink <7941>: 23 Which justify <6663> the wicked <7563> for reward <7810>, and take <5493> away <5493> the righteousness <6666> of the righteous <6662> from him! 24 Therefore <3651> as the fire <0784> devoureth <0398> the stubble <7179>, and the flame <3852> consumeth <7503> the chaff <2842>, [so] their root <8328> shall be as rottenness <4716>, and their blossom <6525> shall go <5927> up as dust <80>: because <3588> they have cast <3988> away the law <8451> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, and despised <5006> the word <0565> of the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 25 Therefore is the anger <0639> of the LORD <3068> kindled <2734> against his people <5971>, and he hath stretched <5186> forth his hand <3027> against <5921> them, and hath smitten <5221> them: and the hills <2022> did tremble <7264>, and their carcases <5038> [were] torn <5478> in the midst <7130> of the streets <2351>. For all <3605> this <2063> his anger <0639> is not turned <7725> away, but his hand <3027> [is] stretched <5186> out still <5750>. 26 And he will lift <5375> up an ensign <5251> to the nations <1471> from far <7350>, and will hiss <8319> unto them from the end <7097> of the earth <0776>: and, behold <2009>, they shall come <0935> with speed <4120> swiftly <7031>: 27 None <0369> shall be weary <5889> nor <3808> stumble <3782> among them; none <3808> shall slumber <5123> nor <3808> sleep <3463>; neither <3808> shall the girdle <0232> of their loins <2504> be loosed <6605>, nor <3808> the latchet <8288> of their shoes <5275> be broken <5423>: 28 Whose <0834> arrows <2671> [are] sharp <8150>, and all <3605> their bows <7198> bent <1869>, their horses <5483>' hoofs <6541> shall be counted <2803> like flint <6864>, and their wheels <1534> like a whirlwind: 29 Their roaring <7581> [shall be] like a lion <3833>, they shall roar <7580> like young <3715> lions <3715>: yea, they shall roar <5098>, and lay hold <0270> of the prey <2964>, and shall carry <6403> [it] away safe <6403>, and none <0369> shall deliver <5337> [it]. 30 And in that day <3117> they shall roar <5098> against <5921> them like the roaring <5100> of the sea <3220>: and if [one] look <5027> unto the land <0776>, behold <2009> darkness <2822> [and] sorrow <6862>, and the light <0216> is darkened <2821> in the heavens <6183> thereof. Isaiah 6 1. In the year <8141> that king <4428> Uzziah <5818> died <4194> I saw <7200> also the Lord <0136> sitting <3427> upon a throne <3678>, high <7311> and lifted <5375> up, and his train <7757> filled <4390> the temple <1964>. 2 Above <4605> it stood <5975> the seraphims <8314>: each <0259> one <0259> had six <8337> wings <3671>; with twain <8147> he covered <3680> his face <6440>, and with twain <8147> he covered <3680> his feet <7272>, and with twain <8147> he did fly <5774>. 3 And one cried <7121> unto another <2088>, and said <0559>, Holy <6918>, holy <6918>, holy <6918>, [is] the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>: the whole <3605> earth <0776> [is] full <4393> of his glory <3519>. 4 And the posts <0520> of the door <5592> moved <5128> at the voice <6963> of him that cried <7121>, and the house <1004> was filled <4390> with smoke <6227>. 5. Then said <0559> I, Woe <0188> [is] me! for I am undone <1820>; because <3588> I [am] a man <0376> of unclean <2931> lips <8193>, and I dwell <3427> in the midst <8432> of a people <5971> of unclean <2931> lips <8193>: for mine eyes <5869> have seen <7200> the King <4428>, the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>. 6 Then flew <5774> one <0259> of the seraphims <8314> unto me, having a live <7531> coal <7531> in his hand <3027>, [which] he had taken <3947> with the tongs <4457> from off <5921> the altar <4196>: 7 And he laid <5060> [it] upon my mouth <6310>, and said <0559>, Lo <2009>, this <2088> hath touched <5060> thy lips <8193>; and thine iniquity <5771> is taken <5493> away <5493>, and thy sin <2403> purged <3722>. 8 Also I heard <8085> the voice <6963> of the Lord <0136>, saying <0559>, Whom shall I send <7971>, and who <4310> will go <3212> for us? Then said <0559> I, Here <2005> [am] I; send <7971> me. 9. And he said <0559>, Go <3212>, and tell <0559> this <2088> people <5971>, Hear <8085> ye indeed, but understand <0995> not; and see <7200> ye indeed, but perceive <3045> not. 10 Make the heart <3820> of this <2088> people <5971> fat <8082>, and make their ears <0241> heavy <3513>, and shut <8173> their eyes <5869>; lest <6435> they see <7200> with their eyes <5869>, and hear <8085> with their ears <0241>, and understand <0995> with their heart <3824>, and convert <7725>, and be healed <7495>. 11 Then said <0559> I, Lord <0136>, how <5704> long <5704>? And he answered <0559>, Until <5704> the cities <5892> be wasted <7582> without <0369> inhabitant <3427>, and the houses <1004> without <0369> man <0120>, and the land <0127> be utterly desolate <8077>, 12 And the LORD <3068> have removed <7368> men <0120> far <7368> away, and [there be] a great <7227> forsaking <5805> in the midst <7130> of the land <0776>. 13 But yet <5750> in it [shall be] a tenth <6224>, and [it] shall return <7725>, and shall be eaten <1197>: as a teil <0424> tree, and as an oak <0437>, whose <0834> substance <4678> [is] in them, when <0834> they cast <7995> [their leaves: so] the holy <6944> seed <2233> [shall be] the substance <4678> thereof. Isaiah 7 1. And it came <1961> to pass in the days <3117> of Ahaz <0271> the son <1121> of Jotham <3147>, the son <1121> of Uzziah <5818>, king <4428> of Judah <3063>, [that] Rezin the king <4428> of Syria <0758>, and Pekah <6492> the son <1121> of Remaliah <7425>, king <4428> of Israel <3478>, went <5927> up toward Jerusalem <3389> to war <4421> against <5921> it, but could <3201> not prevail <3898> against <5921> it. 2 And it was told <5046> the house <1004> of David <1732>, saying <0559>, Syria <0758> is confederate <5117> with Ephraim <0669>. And his heart <3824> was moved <5128>, and the heart <3824> of his people <5971>, as the trees <6086> of the wood <3293> are moved <5128> with the wind <7307>. 3 Then said <0559> the LORD <3068> unto Isaiah <3470>, Go <3318> forth <3318> now <4994> to meet <7125> Ahaz <0271>, thou, and Shearjashub <7610> thy son <1121>, at <0413> the end <7097> of the conduit <8585> of the upper <5945> pool <1295> in the highway <4546> of the fuller's <3526> field <7704>; 4 And say <0559> unto him, Take heed <8104>, and be quiet <8252>; fear <3372> not, neither <0408> be fainthearted <3824> for the two <8147> tails <2180> of these <0428> smoking <6226> firebrands <0181>, for the fierce <2750> anger <0639> of Rezin <7526> with Syria <0758>, and of the son <1121> of Remaliah <7425>. 5 Because Syria <0758>, Ephraim <0669>, and the son <1121> of Remaliah <7425>, have taken evil <7451> counsel <3289> against <5921> thee, saying <0559>, 6 Let us go <5927> up against Judah <3063>, and vex <6972> it, and let us make a breach <1234> therein for us, and set a king <4428> in the midst <8432> of it, [even] the son <1121> of Tabeal <2870>: 7 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, It shall not stand <6965>, neither <3808> shall it come <1961> to pass. 8 For the head <7218> of Syria <0758> [is] Damascus <1834>, and the head <7218> of Damascus <1834> [is] Rezin <7526>; and within threescore <7657> and five <2568> years <8141> shall Ephraim <0669> be broken <2844>, that it be not a people <5971>. 9 And the head <7218> of Ephraim <0669> [is] Samaria <8111>, and the head <7218> of Samaria <8111> [is] Remaliah's <7425> son <1121>. If <0518> ye will not believe <0539>, surely <3588> ye shall not be established <0539>. 10. Moreover the LORD <3068> spake <1696> again <3254> unto Ahaz <0271>, saying <0559>, 11 Ask <7592> thee a sign <0226> of the LORD <3068> thy God <0430>; ask <7592> it either in the depth <6009>, or <0176> in the height <1361> above <4605>. 12 But Ahaz <0271> said <0559>, I will not ask <7592>, neither <3808> will I tempt <5254> the LORD <3068>. 13 And he said <0559>, Hear <8085> ye now <4994>, O house <1004> of David <1732>; [Is it] a small <4592> thing for you to weary <3811> men <0582>, but will ye weary <3811> my God <0430> also <1571>? 14 Therefore <3651> the Lord <0136> himself <1931> shall give <5414> you a sign <0226>; Behold <2009>, a virgin <5959> shall conceive <2030>, and bear <3205> a son <1121>, and shall call <7121> his name <8034> Immanuel <6005>. 15 Butter <2529> and honey <1706> shall he eat <0398>, that he may know <3045> to refuse <3988> the evil <7451>, and choose <0977> the good <2896>. 16 For before <2962> the child <5288> shall know <3045> to refuse <3988> the evil <7451>, and choose <0977> the good <2896>, the land <0127> that thou abhorrest <6973> shall be forsaken <5800> of both <8147> her kings <4428>. 17. The LORD <3068> shall bring <0935> upon thee, and upon thy people <5971>, and upon thy father's <1> house <1004>, days <3117> that have not come <0935>, from the day <3117> that Ephraim <0669> departed <5493> from Judah <3063>; [even <0853>] the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>. 18 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] the LORD <3068> shall hiss <8319> for the fly <2070> that [is] in the uttermost <7097> part of the rivers <2975> of Egypt <4714>, and for the bee <1682> that [is] in the land <0776> of Assyria <0804>. 19 And they shall come <0935>, and shall rest <5117> all <3605> of them in the desolate <1327> valleys <5158>, and in the holes <5357> of the rocks <5553>, and upon all <3605> thorns <5285>, and upon all <3605> bushes <5097>. 20 In the same <1931> day <3117> shall the Lord <0136> shave <1548> with a razor <8593> that is hired <7917>, [namely], by them beyond <5676> the river <5104>, by the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, the head <7218>, and the hair <8181> of the feet <7272>: and it shall also <1571> consume <5595> the beard <2206>. 21 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] a man <0376> shall nourish <2421> a young <1241> cow <5697>, and two <8147> sheep <6629>; 22 And it shall come <1961> to pass, for the abundance <7230> of milk <2461> [that] they shall give <6213> he shall eat <0398> butter <2529>: for butter <2529> and honey <1706> shall every <3605> one eat <0398> that is left <3498> in the land <0776>. 23 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] every <3605> place <4725> shall be, where <0834> there were a thousand <0505> vines <1612> at a thousand <0505> silverlings <3701>, it shall [even] be for briers <8068> and thorns <7898>. 24 With arrows <2671> and with bows <7198> shall [men] come <0935> thither <8033>; because <3588> all <3605> the land <0776> shall become <1961> briers <8068> and thorns <7898>. 25 And [on] all <3605> hills <2022> that shall be digged <5737> with the mattock <4576>, there shall not come <0935> thither <8033> the fear <3374> of briers <8068> and thorns <7898>: but it shall be for the sending <4916> forth of oxen <7794>, and for the treading <4823> of lesser <7716> cattle <7716>. Isaiah 8 1. Moreover the LORD <3068> said <0559> unto me, Take <3947> thee a great <1419> roll <1549>, and write <3789> in it with a man's <0582> pen <2747> concerning Mahershalalhashbaz <4122>. 2 And I took unto me faithful <0539> witnesses <5707> to record <5749>, Uriah <0223> the priest <3548>, and Zechariah <2148> the son <1121> of Jeberechiah <3000>. 3 And I went <7126> unto the prophetess <5031>; and she conceived <2030>, and bare <3205> a son <1121>. Then said <0559> the LORD <3068> to me, Call <7121> his name <8034> Mahershalalhashbaz <4122>. 4 For before <2962> the child <5288> shall have knowledge <3045> to cry <7121>, My father <1>, and my mother <0517>, the riches <2428> of Damascus <1834> and the spoil <7998> of Samaria <8111> shall be taken <5375> away before <6440> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>. 5 The LORD <3068> spake <1696> also unto me again <3254>, saying <0559>, 6 Forasmuch as this <2088> people <5971> refuseth <3988> the waters <4325> of Shiloah <7975> that go <1980> softly <0328>, and rejoice <4885> in Rezin <7526> and Remaliah's <7425> son <1121>; 7 Now therefore <3651>, behold <2009>, the Lord <0136> bringeth <5927> up upon them the waters <4325> of the river <5104>, strong <6099> and many <7227>, [even <0853>] the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, and all <3605> his glory <3519>: and he shall come <5927> up over <5921> all <3605> his channels <0650>, and go <1980> over <5921> all <3605> his banks <1415>: 8 And he shall pass <2498> through Judah <3063>; he shall overflow <7857> and go <5674> over <5674>, he shall reach <5060> [even] to the neck <6677>; and the stretching <4298> out of his wings <3671> shall fill <4393> the breadth <7341> of thy land <0776>, O Immanuel <6005>. 9. Associate <7489> yourselves, O ye people <5971>, and ye shall be broken <2844> in pieces; and give ear <0238>, all <3605> ye of far <4801> countries <0776>: gird <0247> yourselves, and ye shall be broken <2844> in pieces; gird <0247> yourselves, and ye shall be broken <2844> in pieces. 10 Take counsel <6098> together, and it shall come to nought <6565>; speak <1696> the word <1697>, and it shall not stand <6965>: for God <0410> [is] with us. 11 For the LORD <3068> spake <0559> thus <3541> to me with a strong <2393> hand <3027>, and instructed <3256> me that I should not walk <3212> in the way <1870> of this <2088> people <5971>, saying <0559>, 12 Say <0559> ye not, A confederacy <7195>, to all <3605> [them to] whom <0834> this <2088> people <5971> shall say <0559>, A confederacy <7195>; neither <3808> fear <3372> ye their fear <4172>, nor <3808> be afraid <6206>. 13 Sanctify <6942> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> himself; and [let] him [be] your fear <4172>, and [let] him [be] your dread <6206>. 14 And he shall be for a sanctuary <4720>; but for a stone <68> of stumbling <5063> and for a rock <6697> of offence <4383> to both <8147> the houses <1004> of Israel <3478>, for a gin <6341> and for a snare <4170> to the inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>. 15 And many <7227> among them shall stumble <3782>, and fall <5307>, and be broken <7665>, and be snared <3369>, and be taken <3920>. 16. Bind <6887> up the testimony <8584>, seal <2856> the law <8451> among my disciples <3928>. 17 And I will wait <2442> upon the LORD <3068>, that hideth <5641> his face <6440> from the house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, and I will look <6960> for him. 18 Behold <2009>, I and the children <3206> whom <0834> the LORD <3068> hath given <5414> me [are] for signs <0226> and for wonders <4159> in Israel <3478> from the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, which dwelleth <7931> in mount <2022> Zion <6726>. 19 And when <3588> they shall say <0559> unto you, Seek <1875> unto them that have familiar spirits <0178>, and unto wizards <3049> that peep <6850>, and that mutter <1897>: should not a people <5971> seek <1875> unto their God <0430>? for the living <2416> to the dead <4191>? 20 To the law <8451> and to the testimony <8584>: if <0518> they speak <0559> not according to this <2088> word <1697>, [it is] because <0834> [there is] no <0369> light <7837> in them. 21 And they shall pass <5674> through it, hardly <7185> bestead and hungry <7456>: and it shall come <1961> to pass, that when <3588> they shall be hungry <7456>, they shall fret <7107> themselves, and curse <7043> their king <4428> and their God <0430>, and look <6437> upward <4605>. 22 And they shall look <5027> unto the earth <0776>; and behold <2009> trouble <6869> and darkness <2825>, dimness <4588> of anguish <6695>; and [they shall be] driven <5080> to darkness <0653>. Isaiah 9 1. Nevertheless <3588> the dimness <4155> [shall] not [be] such as [was] in her vexation <4164>, when <6256> at the first <7223> he lightly <7043> afflicted <7043> the land <0776> of Zebulun <2074> and the land <0776> of Naphtali <5321>, and afterward <0314> did more grievously <3513> afflict <3513> [her by] the way <1870> of the sea <3220>, beyond <5676> Jordan <3383>, in Galilee <1551> of the nations <1471>. 2 The people <5971> that walked <1980> in darkness <2822> have seen <7200> a great <1419> light <0216>: they that dwell <3427> in the land <0776> of the shadow <6757> of death <6757>, upon them hath the light <0216> shined <5050>. 3 Thou hast multiplied <7235> the nation <1471>, [and] not increased <1431> the joy <8057>: they joy <8055> before <6440> thee according to the joy <8055> in harvest <7105>, [and] as [men] rejoice <1523> when they divide <2505> the spoil <7998>. 4 For thou hast broken <2865> the yoke <5923> of his burden <5448>, and the staff <4294> of his shoulder <7926>, the rod <7626> of his oppressor <5065>, as in the day <3117> of Midian <4080>. 5 For every <3605> battle <5430> of the warrior <5431> [is] with confused <7494> noise, and garments <8071> rolled <1556> in blood <1818>; but [this] shall be with burning <8316> [and] fuel <3980> of fire <0784>. 6 For unto us a child <3206> is born <3205>, unto us a son <1121> is given <5414>: and the government <4951> shall be upon his shoulder <7926>: and his name <8034> shall be called <7121> Wonderful <6382>, Counsellor <3289>, The mighty <1368> God <0410>, The everlasting <5703> Father <1>, The Prince <8269> of Peace <7965>. 7 Of the increase <4768> of [his] government <4951> and peace <7965> [there shall be] no <0369> end <7093>, upon the throne <3678> of David <1732>, and upon his kingdom <4467>, to order <3559> it, and to establish <5582> it with judgment <4941> and with justice <6666> from henceforth <6258> even for ever <5769>. The zeal <7068> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> will perform <6213> this <2063>. 8. The Lord <3068> sent <7971> a word <1697> into Jacob <3290>, and it hath lighted <5307> upon Israel <3478>. 9 And all <3605> the people <5971> shall know <3045>, [even] Ephraim <0669> and the inhabitant <3427> of Samaria <8111>, that say <0559> in the pride <1346> and stoutness <1433> of heart <3824>, 10 The bricks <3843> are fallen <5307> down, but we will build <1129> with hewn <1496> stones <1496>: the sycomores <8256> are cut <1438> down <1438>, but we will change <2498> [them into] cedars <0730>. 11 Therefore the LORD <3068> shall set <7682> up the adversaries <6862> of Rezin <7526> against <5921> him, and join <5526> his enemies <0341> together; 12 The Syrians <0758> before <6924>, and the Philistines <6430> behind <0268>; and they shall devour <0398> Israel <3478> with open <6605> mouth <6310>. For all <3605> this <2063> his anger <0639> is not turned <7725> away, but his hand <3027> [is] stretched <5186> out still <5750>. 13 For the people <5971> turneth <7725> not unto him that smiteth <5221> them, neither <3808> do they seek <1875> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>. 14 Therefore the LORD <3068> will cut <3772> off from Israel <3478> head <7218> and tail <2180>, branch <3712> and rush <0100>, in one <0259> day <3117>. 15 The ancient <2204> and honourable, he [is] the head <7218>; and the prophet <5030> that teacheth <3384> lies <8267>, he [is] the tail <2180>. 16 For the leaders <0833> of this <2088> people <5971> cause [them] to err <8582>; and [they that are] led <0833> of them [are] destroyed <1104>. 17 Therefore the Lord <0136> shall have no <3808> joy <8055> in their young <0970> men, neither <3808> shall have mercy <7355> on their fatherless <3490> and widows <0490>: for every <3605> one [is] an hypocrite <2611> and an evildoer <7489>, and every <3605> mouth <6310> speaketh <1696> folly <5039>. For all <3605> this <2063> his anger <0639> is not turned <7725> away, but his hand <3027> [is] stretched <5186> out still <5750>. 18 For wickedness <7564> burneth <1197> as the fire <0784>: it shall devour <0398> the briers <8068> and thorns <7898>, and shall kindle <3341> in the thickets <5442> of the forest <3293>, and they shall mount <55> up [like] the lifting <1348> up of smoke <6227>. 19 Through the wrath <5678> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> is the land <0776> darkened <6272>, and the people <5971> shall be as the fuel <3980> of the fire <0784>: no <3808> man <0376> shall spare <2550> his brother <0251>. 20 And he shall snatch <1504> on <5921> the right <3225> hand <3225>, and be hungry <7456>; and he shall eat <0398> on <5921> the left <8040> hand <8040>, and they shall not be satisfied <7646>: they shall eat <0398> every man <0376> the flesh <1320> of his own arm <2220>: 21 Manasseh <4519>, Ephraim <0669>; and Ephraim <0669>, Manasseh <4519>: [and] they together <3162> [shall be] against <5921> Judah <3063>. For all <3605> this <2063> his anger <0639> is not turned <7725> away, but his hand <3027> [is] stretched <5186> out still <5750>. Isaiah 10 1. Woe <1945> unto them that decree <2710> unrighteous <0205> decrees <2711>, and that write <3789> grievousness <5999> [which] they have prescribed <3789>; 2 To turn <5186> aside <5186> the needy <1800> from judgment <1779>, and to take <1497> away <1497> the right <4941> from the poor <6041> of my people <5971>, that widows <0490> may be their prey <7998>, and [that] they may rob <0962> the fatherless <3490>! 3 And what <4100> will ye do <6213> in the day <3117> of visitation <6486>, and in the desolation <7722> [which] shall come <0935> from far <4801>? to whom <4310> will ye flee <5127> for help <5833>? and where <0575> will ye leave <5800> your glory <3519>? 4 Without <1115> me they shall bow <3766> down <3766> under <8478> the prisoners <0616>, and they shall fall <5307> under <8478> the slain <2026>. For all <3605> this <2063> his anger <0639> is not turned <7725> away, but his hand <3027> [is] stretched <5186> out still <5750>. 5. O Assyrian <0804>, the rod <7626> of mine anger <0639>, and the staff <4294> in their hand <3027> is mine indignation <2195>. 6 I will send <7971> him against an hypocritical <2611> nation <1471>, and against <5921> the people <5971> of my wrath <5678> will I give him a charge <6680>, to take <7997> the spoil <7998>, and to take <0962> the prey <0957>, and to tread <4823> them down like the mire <2563> of the streets <2351>. 7 Howbeit he meaneth <1819> not so <3651>, neither <3808> doth his heart <3824> think <2803> so <3651>; but [it is] in his heart <3824> to destroy <8045> and cut <3772> off nations <1471> not a few <4592>. 8 For he saith <0559>, [Are] not my princes <8269> altogether <3162> kings <4428>? 9 [Is] not Calno <3641> as Carchemish <3751>? [is] not Hamath <2574> as Arpad <0774>? [is] not Samaria <8111> as Damascus <1834>? 10 As my hand <3027> hath found <4672> the kingdoms <4467> of the idols <0457>, and whose graven <6456> images did excel them of Jerusalem <3389> and of Samaria <8111>; 11 Shall I not, as I have done <6466> unto Samaria <8111> and her idols <0457>, so <3651> do <6213> to Jerusalem <3389> and her idols <6091>? 12 Wherefore it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] when <3588> the Lord <0136> hath performed <1214> his whole work <4639> upon mount <2022> Zion <6726> and on Jerusalem <3389>, I will punish <6485> the fruit <6529> of the stout <1433> heart <3824> of the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, and the glory <8597> of his high <7312> looks <5869>. 13 For he saith <0559>, By the strength <3581> of my hand <3027> I have done <6466> [it], and by my wisdom <2451>; for I am prudent <0995>: and I have removed <5493> the bounds <1367> of the people <5971>, and have robbed <8154> their treasures <6259>, and I have put <3381> down <3381> the inhabitants <3427> like a valiant <3524> [man]: 14 And my hand <3027> hath found <4672> as a nest <7064> the riches <2428> of the people <5971>: and as one gathereth <0622> eggs <1000> [that are] left <5800>, have I gathered <0622> all <3605> the earth <0776>; and there was none <3808> that moved <5074> the wing <3671>, or opened <6473> the mouth <6310>, or peeped <6850>. 15 Shall the axe <1631> boast <6286> itself against <5921> him that heweth <2672> therewith? [or] shall the saw <4883> magnify <1431> itself against <5921> him that shaketh <5130> it? as if the rod <7626> should shake <5130> [itself] against them that lift <7311> it up, [or] as if the staff <4294> should lift <7311> up [itself, as if it were] no <3808> wood <6086>. 16 Therefore <3651> shall the Lord <0113>, the Lord <0136> of hosts <6635>, send <7971> among his fat <4924> ones leanness <7332>; and under <8478> his glory <3519> he shall kindle <3344> a burning <3350> like the burning <3345> of a fire <0784>. 17 And the light <0216> of Israel <3478> shall be for a fire <0784>, and his Holy <6918> One for a flame <3852>: and it shall burn <1197> and devour <0398> his thorns <7898> and his briers <8068> in one <0259> day <3117>; 18 And shall consume <3615> the glory <3519> of his forest <3293>, and of his fruitful <3759> field, both soul <5315> and body <1320>: and they shall be as when a standardbearer <5264> fainteth <4549>. 19 And the rest <7605> of the trees <6086> of his forest <3293> shall be few <4557>, that a child <5288> may write <3789> them. 20. And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] the remnant <7605> of Israel <3478>, and such as are escaped <6413> of the house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, shall no <3808> more <5750> again <3254> stay <4937> upon him that smote <5221> them; but shall stay <8172> upon the LORD <3068>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, in truth <0571>. 21 The remnant <7605> shall return <7725>, [even] the remnant <7605> of Jacob <3290>, unto the mighty <1368> God <0410>. 22 For though <0518> thy people <5971> Israel <3478> be as the sand <2344> of the sea <3220>, [yet] a remnant <7605> of them shall return <7725>: the consumption <3631> decreed <2782> shall overflow <7857> with righteousness <6666>. 23 For the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635> shall make <6213> a consumption <3617>, even determined <2782>, in the midst <7130> of all <3605> the land <0776>. 24. Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635>, O my people <5971> that dwellest <3427> in Zion <6726>, be not afraid <3372> of the Assyrian <0804>: he shall smite <5221> thee with a rod <7626>, and shall lift <5375> up his staff <4294> against <5921> thee, after the manner <1870> of Egypt <4714>. 25 For yet <5750> a very <4213> little <4592> while, and the indignation <2195> shall cease <3615>, and mine anger <0639> in their destruction <8399>. 26 And the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> shall stir <5782> up a scourge <7752> for him according to the slaughter <4347> of Midian <4080> at the rock <6697> of Oreb <6157>: and [as] his rod <4294> [was] upon the sea <3220>, so shall he lift <5375> it up after the manner <1870> of Egypt <4714>. 27 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] his burden <5448> shall be taken <5493> away <5493> from off <5921> thy shoulder <7926>, and his yoke <5923> from off <5921> thy neck <6677>, and the yoke <5923> shall be destroyed <2254> because <6440> of the anointing <8081>. 28 He is come <0935> to Aiath <5857>, he is passed <5674> to Migron <4051>; at Michmash <4363> he hath laid <6485> up his carriages <3627>: 29 They are gone <5674> over <5674> the passage <4569>: they have taken <3885> up their lodging <4411> at Geba <1387>; Ramah <7414> is afraid <2729>; Gibeah <1390> of Saul <7586> is fled <5127>. 30 Lift <6670> up thy voice <6963>, O daughter <1323> of Gallim <1554>: cause it to be heard <7181> unto Laish <3919>, O poor <6041> Anathoth <6068>. 31 Madmenah <4088> is removed <5074>; the inhabitants <3427> of Gebim <1374> gather <5756> themselves to flee. 32 As yet <5750> shall he remain <5975> at Nob <5011> that day <3117>: he shall shake <5130> his hand <3027> [against] the mount <2022> of the daughter <1004> of Zion <6726>, the hill <1389> of Jerusalem <3389>. 33 Behold <2009>, the Lord <0113>, the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, shall lop <5586> the bough <6288> with terror <4637>: and the high <7312> ones of stature <6967> [shall be] hewn <1438> down <1438>, and the haughty <1364> shall be humbled <8213>. 34 And he shall cut <5362> down the thickets <5442> of the forest <3293> with iron <1270>, and Lebanon <3844> shall fall <5307> by a mighty <0117> one. Isaiah 11 1. And there shall come <3318> forth <3318> a rod <2415> out of the stem <1503> of Jesse <3448>, and a Branch <5342> shall grow <6509> out of his roots <8328>: 2 And the spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068> shall rest <5117> upon him, the spirit <7307> of wisdom <2451> and understanding <0998>, the spirit <7307> of counsel <6098> and might <1369>, the spirit <7307> of knowledge <1847> and of the fear <3374> of the LORD <3068>; 3 And shall make him of quick understanding <7306> in the fear <3374> of the LORD <3068>: and he shall not judge <8199> after the sight <4758> of his eyes <5869>, neither <3808> reprove <3198> after <0310> the hearing <4926> of his ears <0241>: 4 But with righteousness <6664> shall he judge <8199> the poor <1800>, and reprove <3198> with equity <4334> for the meek <6035> of the earth <0776>: and he shall smite <5221> the earth <0776> with the rod <7626> of his mouth <6310>, and with the breath <7307> of his lips <8193> shall he slay <4191> the wicked <7563>. 5 And righteousness <6664> shall be the girdle <0232> of his loins <4975>, and faithfulness <0530> the girdle <0232> of his reins <2504>. 6 The wolf <2061> also shall dwell <1481> with the lamb <3532>, and the leopard <5246> shall lie <7257> down <7257> with the kid <1423>; and the calf <5695> and the young <3715> lion <3715> and the fatling <4806> together <3162>; and a little <6995> child <5288> shall lead <5090> them. 7 And the cow <6510> and the bear <1677> shall feed <7462>; their young <3206> ones shall lie <7257> down <7257> together <3162>: and the lion <0738> shall eat <0398> straw <8401> like the ox <1241>. 8 And the sucking <3243> child shall play <8173> on <5921> the hole <2356> of the asp <6620>, and the weaned <1580> child shall put <1911> his hand <3027> on <5921> the cockatrice <6848>' den <3975>. 9 They shall not hurt <7489> nor <3808> destroy <7843> in all <3605> my holy <6944> mountain <2022>: for the earth <0776> shall be full <4390> of the knowledge <1844> of the LORD <3068>, as the waters <4325> cover <3680> the sea <3220>. 10. And in that day <3117> there shall be a root <8328> of Jesse <3448>, which <0834> shall stand <5975> for an ensign <5251> of the people <5971>; to it shall the Gentiles <1471> seek <1875>: and his rest <4496> shall be glorious <3519>. 11 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] the Lord <0136> shall set his hand <3027> again <3254> the second <8145> time <6256> to recover <7069> the remnant <7605> of his people <5971>, which <0834> shall be left <7604>, from Assyria <0804>, and from Egypt <4714>, and from Pathros <6624>, and from Cush <3568>, and from Elam <5867>, and from Shinar <8152>, and from Hamath <2574>, and from the islands <0339> of the sea <3220>. 12 And he shall set <5375> up an ensign <5251> for the nations <1471>, and shall assemble <0622> the outcasts <1760> of Israel <3478>, and gather <6908> together the dispersed <5310> of Judah <3063> from the four <0702> corners <3671> of the earth <0776>. 13 The envy <7068> also of Ephraim <0669> shall depart <5493>, and the adversaries <6887> of Judah <3063> shall be cut <3772> off: Ephraim <0669> shall not envy <7065> Judah <3063>, and Judah <3063> shall not vex <6887> Ephraim <0669>. 14 But they shall fly <5774> upon the shoulders <3802> of the Philistines <6430> toward the west <3220>; they shall spoil <0962> them of the east <6924> together <3162>: they shall lay <7971> their hand <3027> upon Edom <0123> and Moab <4124>; and the children <1121> of Ammon <5983> shall obey <4928> them. 15 And the LORD <3068> shall utterly destroy <2763> the tongue <3956> of the Egyptian <4714> sea <3220>; and with his mighty <5868> wind <7307> shall he shake <5130> his hand <3027> over <5921> the river <5104>, and shall smite <5221> it in the seven <7651> streams <5158>, and make [men] go <1869> over <1869> dryshod <5275>. 16 And there shall be an highway <4546> for the remnant <7605> of his people <5971>, which <0834> shall be left <7604>, from Assyria <0804>; like as it was to Israel <3478> in the day <3117> that he came <5927> up out of the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>. Isaiah 12 1. And in that day <3117> thou shalt say <0559>, O LORD <3068>, I will praise <3034> thee: though <3588> thou wast angry <0599> with me, thine anger <0639> is turned <7725> away, and thou comfortedst <5162> me. 2 Behold <2009>, God <0410> [is] my salvation <3444>; I will trust <0982>, and not be afraid <6342>: for the LORD <3050> JEHOVAH <3068> [is] my strength <5797> and [my] song <2176>; he also is become <1961> my salvation <3444>. 3 Therefore with joy <8342> shall ye draw <7579> water <4325> out of the wells <4599> of salvation <3444>. 4. And in that day <3117> shall ye say <0559>, Praise <3034> the LORD <3068>, call <7121> upon his name <8034>, declare <3045> his doings <5949> among the people <5971>, make mention <2142> that his name <8034> is exalted <7682>. 5 Sing <2167> unto the LORD <3068>; for he hath done <6466> excellent <1348> things: this <2063> [is] known <3045> in all <3605> the earth <0776>. 6 Cry <6670> out and shout <7442>, thou inhabitant <3427> of Zion <6726>: for great <1419> [is] the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478> in the midst <7130> of thee. Isaiah 13 1. The burden <4853> of Babylon <0894>, which <0834> Isaiah <3470> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531> did see <2372>. 2 Lift <5375> ye up a banner <5251> upon the high <8192> mountain <2022>, exalt <7311> the voice <6963> unto them, shake <5130> the hand <3027>, that they may go <0935> into the gates <6607> of the nobles <5081>. 3 I have commanded <6680> my sanctified <6942> ones, I have also <1571> called <7121> my mighty <1368> ones for mine anger <0639>, [even] them that rejoice <5947> in my highness <1346>. 4 The noise <6963> of a multitude <1995> in the mountains <2022>, like <1823> as of a great <7227> people <5971>; a tumultuous <7588> noise <6963> of the kingdoms <4467> of nations <1471> gathered <0622> together: the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> mustereth <6485> the host <6635> of the battle <4421>. 5 They come <0935> from a far <4801> country <0776>, from the end <7093> of heaven <8064>, [even] the LORD <3068>, and the weapons <3627> of his indignation <2195>, to destroy <2254> the whole <3605> land <0776>. 6. Howl <3213> ye; for the day <3117> of the LORD <3068> [is] at <7138> hand <7138>; it shall come <0935> as a destruction <7701> from the Almighty <7706>. 7 Therefore shall all <3605> hands <3027> be faint <7503>, and every <3605> man's <0582> heart <3824> shall melt <4549>: 8 And they shall be afraid <0926>: pangs <6735> and sorrows <2256> shall take <0270> hold <0270> of them; they shall be in pain <2342> as a woman that travaileth <3205>: they shall be amazed <8539> one <0376> at <0413> another <7453>; their faces <6440> [shall be as] flames <3851>. 9 Behold <2009>, the day <3117> of the LORD <3068> cometh <0935>, cruel <0394> both with wrath <5678> and fierce <2740> anger <0639>, to lay the land <0776> desolate <8047>: and he shall destroy <8045> the sinners <2400> thereof out of it. 10 For the stars <3556> of heaven <8064> and the constellations <3685> thereof shall not give their light <0216>: the sun <8121> shall be darkened <2821> in his going <3318> forth <3318>, and the moon <3394> shall not cause her light <0216> to shine <5050>. 11 And I will punish <6485> the world <8398> for [their] evil <7451>, and the wicked <7563> for their iniquity <5771>; and I will cause the arrogancy <1347> of the proud <2086> to cease <7673>, and will lay low <8213> the haughtiness <1346> of the terrible <6184>. 12 I will make a man <0582> more precious <3365> than fine gold <6337>; even a man <0120> than the golden <3800> wedge of Ophir <0211>. 13 Therefore I will shake <7264> the heavens <8064>, and the earth <0776> shall remove <7493> out of her place <4725>, in the wrath <5678> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, and in the day <3117> of his fierce <2740> anger <0639>. 14 And it shall be as the chased <5080> roe <6643>, and as a sheep <6629> that no <0369> man taketh <6908> up: they shall every man <0376> turn <6437> to his own people <5971>, and flee <5127> every <0376> one into <0413> his own land <0776>. 15 Every <3605> one that is found <4672> shall be thrust <1856> through <1856>; and every <3605> one that is joined <5595> [unto them] shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>. 16 Their children <5768> also shall be dashed <7376> to pieces before their eyes <5869>; their houses <1004> shall be spoiled <8155>, and their wives <0802> ravished <7693>. 17 Behold <2005>, I will stir <5782> up the Medes <4074> against <5921> them, which <0834> shall not regard <2803> silver <3701>; and [as for] gold <2091>, they shall not delight <2654> in it. 18 [Their] bows <7198> also shall dash <7376> the young <5288> men to pieces; and they shall have no <3808> pity <7355> on the fruit <6529> of the womb <0990>; their eye <5869> shall not spare <2347> children <1121>. 19. And Babylon <0894>, the glory <6643> of kingdoms <4467>, the beauty <8597> of the Chaldees <3778>' excellency <1347>, shall be as when God <0430> overthrew <4114> Sodom <5467> and Gomorrah <6017>. 20 It shall never be inhabited <3427>, neither <3808> shall it be dwelt <7931> in from generation <1755> to generation <1755>: neither <3808> shall the Arabian <6153> pitch <0167> tent <0167> there <8033>; neither <3808> shall the shepherds <7462> make their fold <7257> there <8033>. 21 But wild <6728> beasts <6728> of the desert <6728> shall lie <7257> there <8033>; and their houses <1004> shall be full <4390> of doleful <0255> creatures <0255>; and owls shall dwell <7931> there <8033>, and satyrs <8163> shall dance <7540> there <8033>. 22 And the wild <0338> beasts <0338> of the islands <0338> shall cry <6030> in their desolate <0490> houses <0490>, and dragons <8577> in [their] pleasant <6027> palaces <1964>: and her time <6256> [is] near <7138> to come <0935>, and her days <3117> shall not be prolonged <4900>. Isaiah 14 1. For the LORD <3068> will have mercy <7355> on Jacob <3290>, and will yet <5750> choose <0977> Israel <3478>, and set <3240> them in their own land <0127>: and the strangers <1616> shall be joined <3867> with them, and they shall cleave <5596> to the house <1004> of Jacob <3290>. 2 And the people <5971> shall take <3947> them, and bring <0935> them to their place <4725>: and the house <1004> of Israel <3478> shall possess <5157> them in the land <0127> of the LORD <3068> for servants <5650> and handmaids <8198>: and they shall take them captives <7617>, whose captives <7617> they were; and they shall rule <7287> over their oppressors <5065>. 3 And it shall come <1961> to pass in the day <3117> that the LORD <3068> shall give thee rest <5117> from thy sorrow <6090>, and from thy fear <7267>, and from the hard <7186> bondage <5656> wherein <0834> thou wast made to serve <5647>, 4. That thou shalt take <5375> up this <2088> proverb <4912> against <5921> the king <4428> of Babylon <0894>, and say <0559>, How <0349> hath the oppressor <5065> ceased <7673>! the golden <4062> city <4062> ceased <7673>! 5 The LORD <3068> hath broken <7665> the staff <4294> of the wicked <7563>, [and] the sceptre <7626> of the rulers <4910>. 6 He who smote <5221> the people <5971> in wrath <5678> with a continual stroke <4347>, he that ruled <7287> the nations <1471> in anger <0639>, is persecuted <4783>, [and] none <1097> hindereth <2820>. 7 The whole <3605> earth <0776> is at rest <5117>, [and] is quiet <8252>: they break <6476> forth into singing <7440>. 8 Yea <1571>, the fir <1265> trees rejoice <8055> at thee, [and] the cedars <0730> of Lebanon <3844>, [saying], Since <0227> thou art laid <7901> down <7901>, no <3808> feller <3772> is come <5927> up against <5921> us. 9 Hell <7585> from beneath <8478> is moved <7264> for thee to meet <7125> [thee] at thy coming <0935>: it stirreth <5782> up the dead <7496> for thee, [even] all <3605> the chief <6260> ones of the earth <0776>; it hath raised <6965> up from their thrones <3678> all <3605> the kings <4428> of the nations <1471>. 10 All <3605> they shall speak <6030> and say <0559> unto thee, Art thou also <1571> become <2470> weak <2470> as we? art thou become <4911> like <4911> unto us? 11 Thy pomp <1347> is brought <3381> down <3381> to the grave <7585>, [and] the noise <1998> of thy viols <5035>: the worm <7415> is spread <3331> under <8478> thee, and the worms <8438> cover <4374> thee. 12 How <0349> art thou fallen <5307> from heaven <8064>, O Lucifer <1966>, son <1121> of the morning <7837>! [how <0349>] art thou cut <1438> down <1438> to the ground <0776>, which didst weaken <2522> the nations <1471>! 13 For thou hast said <0559> in thine heart <3824>, I will ascend <5927> into heaven <8064>, I will exalt <7311> my throne <3678> above <4605> the stars <3556> of God <0410>: I will sit <3427> also upon the mount <2022> of the congregation <4150>, in the sides <3411> of the north <6828>: 14 I will ascend <5927> above <5921> the heights <1116> of the clouds <5645>; I will be like <1819> the most <5945> High <5945>. 15 Yet <0389> thou shalt be brought <3381> down <3381> to hell <7585>, to the sides <3411> of the pit <0953>. 16 They that see <7200> thee shall narrowly look <7688> upon thee, [and] consider <0995> thee, [saying <0559>, Is] this <2088> the man <0376> that made the earth <0776> to tremble <7264>, that did shake <7493> kingdoms <4467>; 17 [That] made <7760> the world <8398> as a wilderness <4057>, and destroyed <2040> the cities <5892> thereof; [that] opened <6605> not the house <1004> of his prisoners <0615>? 18 All <3605> the kings <4428> of the nations <1471>, [even] all <3605> of them, lie <7901> in glory <3519>, every <0376> one <0376> in his own house <1004>. 19 But thou art cast <7993> out of thy grave <6913> like an abominable <8581> branch <5342>, [and as] the raiment <3830> of those that are slain <2026>, thrust <2944> through <2944> with a sword <2719>, that go <3381> down <3381> to the stones <68> of the pit <0953>; as a carcase <6297> trodden <0947> under feet. 20 Thou shalt not be joined <3161> with them in burial <6900>, because <3588> thou hast destroyed <7843> thy land <0776>, [and] slain <2026> thy people <5971>: the seed <2233> of evildoers <7489> shall never be renowned <7121>. 21 Prepare <3559> slaughter <4293> for his children <1121> for the iniquity <5771> of their fathers <1>; that they do not rise <6965>, nor possess <3423> the land <0776>, nor fill <4390> the face <6440> of the world <8398> with cities <5892>. 22 For I will rise <6965> up against <5921> them, saith <5002> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, and cut <3772> off from Babylon <0894> the name <8034>, and remnant <7605>, and son <5209>, and nephew <5220>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>. 23 I will also make <7760> it a possession <4180> for the bittern <7090>, and pools <98> of water <4325>: and I will sweep <2894> it with the besom <4292> of destruction <8045>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>. 24. The LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> hath sworn <7650>, saying <0559>, Surely as I have thought <1819>, so shall it come <1961> to pass; and as I have purposed <3289>, [so <3651>] shall it stand <6965>: 25 That I will break <7665> the Assyrian <0804> in my land <0776>, and upon my mountains <2022> tread <0947> him under foot <0947>: then shall his yoke <5923> depart <5493> from off <5921> them, and his burden <5448> depart <5493> from off <5921> their shoulders <7926>. 26 This <2063> [is] the purpose <6098> that is purposed <3289> upon the whole <3605> earth <0776>: and this <2063> [is] the hand <3027> that is stretched <5186> out upon all <3605> the nations <1471>. 27 For the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> hath purposed <3289>, and who <4310> shall disannul <6565> [it]? and his hand <3027> [is] stretched <5186> out, and who <4310> shall turn <7725> it back <7725>? 28 In the year <8141> that king <4428> Ahaz <0271> died <4194> was this <2088> burden <4853>. 29 Rejoice <8055> not thou, whole <3605> Palestina <6429>, because <3588> the rod <7626> of him that smote <5221> thee is broken <7665>: for out of the serpent's <5175> root <8328> shall come <3318> forth <3318> a cockatrice <6848>, and his fruit <6529> [shall be] a fiery <8314> flying <5774> serpent <8314>. 30 And the firstborn <1060> of the poor <1800> shall feed <7462>, and the needy <34> shall lie <7257> down <7257> in safety <0983>: and I will kill <4191> thy root <8328> with famine <7458>, and he shall slay <2026> thy remnant <7611>. 31 Howl <3213>, O gate <8179>; cry <2199>, O city <5892>; thou, whole <3605> Palestina <6429>, [art] dissolved <4127>: for there shall come <0935> from the north <6828> a smoke <6227>, and none <0369> [shall be] alone <0909> in his appointed <4151> times <4151>. 32 What <4100> shall [one] then answer <6030> the messengers <4397> of the nation <1471>? That the LORD <3068> hath founded <3245> Zion <6726>, and the poor <6041> of his people <5971> shall trust <2620> in it. Isaiah 15 1. The burden <4853> of Moab <4124>. Because <3588> in the night <3915> Ar <6144> of Moab <4124> is laid waste <7703>, [and] brought <1820> to silence <1820>; because <3588> in the night <3915> Kir <7024> of Moab <4124> is laid waste <7703>, [and] brought <1820> to silence; 2 He is gone <5927> up to Bajith <1006>, and to Dibon <1769>, the high <1116> places, to weep <1065>: Moab <4124> shall howl <3213> over <5921> Nebo <5015>, and over <5921> Medeba <4311>: on all <3605> their heads <7218> [shall be] baldness <7144>, [and] every <3605> beard <2206> cut <1438> off. 3 In their streets <2351> they shall gird <2296> themselves with sackcloth <8242>: on <5921> the tops <1406> of their houses, and in their streets <7339>, every <3605> one shall howl <3213>, weeping <1065> abundantly <3381>. 4 And Heshbon <2809> shall cry <2199>, and Elealeh <0500>: their voice <6963> shall be heard <8085> [even] unto Jahaz <3096>: therefore the armed <2502> soldiers <2502> of Moab <4124> shall cry <7321> out; his life <5315> shall be grievous <3415> unto him. 5 My heart <3820> shall cry <2199> out for Moab <4124>; his fugitives <1280> [shall flee] unto Zoar <6820>, an heifer <5697> of three <7992> years old <7992>: for by the mounting <4608> up of Luhith <3872> with weeping <1065> shall they go <5927> it up; for in the way <1870> of Horonaim <2773> they shall raise <5782> up a cry <2201> of destruction <7667>. 6. For the waters <4325> of Nimrim <5249> shall be desolate <4923>: for the hay <2682> is withered <3001> away, the grass <1877> faileth <3615>, there is no <3808> green <3418> thing. 7 Therefore the abundance <3502> they have gotten <6213>, and that which they have laid <6486> up, shall they carry <5375> away to the brook <5158> of the willows <6155>. 8 For the cry <2201> is gone <5362> round <5362> about the borders <1366> of Moab <4124>; the howling <3213> thereof unto Eglaim <97>, and the howling <3213> thereof unto Beerelim <0879>. 9 For the waters <4325> of Dimon <1775> shall be full <4390> of blood <1818>: for I will bring <7896> more <3254> upon Dimon <1775>, lions <0738> upon him that escapeth <6413> of Moab <4124>, and upon the remnant <7611> of the land <0127>. Isaiah 16 1. Send <7971> ye the lamb <3733> to the ruler <4910> of the land <0776> from Sela <5554> to the wilderness <4057>, unto the mount <2022> of the daughter <1323> of Zion <6726>. 2 For it shall be, [that], as a wandering <5074> bird <5775> cast <7971> out of the nest <7064>, [so] the daughters <1121> of Moab <4124> shall be at the fords <4569> of Arnon <0769>. 3 Take <0935> counsel <6098>, execute <6213> judgment <6415>; make <7896> thy shadow <6738> as the night <3915> in the midst <8432> of the noonday <6672>; hide <5641> the outcasts <5080>; bewray <1540> not him that wandereth <5074>. 4 Let mine outcasts <5080> dwell <1481> with thee, Moab <4124>; be thou a covert <5643> to them from the face <6440> of the spoiler <7703>: for the extortioner <4160> is at an end <0657>, the spoiler <7701> ceaseth <3615>, the oppressors <7429> are consumed <8552> out of the land <0776>. 5 And in mercy <2617> shall the throne <3678> be established <3559>: and he shall sit <3427> upon it in truth <0571> in the tabernacle <0168> of David <1732>, judging <8199>, and seeking <1875> judgment <4941>, and hasting <4106> righteousness <6664>. 6. We have heard <8085> of the pride <1347> of Moab <4124>; [he is] very <3966> proud <1341>: [even] of his haughtiness <1346>, and his pride <1347>, and his wrath <5678>: [but] his lies <0907> [shall] not [be] so <3651>. 7 Therefore <3651> shall Moab <4124> howl <3213> for Moab <4124>, every <3605> one shall howl <3213>: for the foundations <0808> of Kirhareseth <7025> shall ye mourn <1897>; surely <0389> [they are] stricken <5218>. 8 For the fields <7709> of Heshbon <2809> languish <0535>, [and] the vine <1612> of Sibmah <7643>: the lords <1167> of the heathen <1471> have broken <1986> down the principal <8291> plants <8291> thereof, they are come <5060> [even] unto Jazer <3270>, they wandered <8582> [through] the wilderness <4057>: her branches <7976> are stretched <5203> out, they are gone <5674> over <5674> the sea <3220>. 9 Therefore I will bewail <1058> with the weeping <1065> of Jazer <3270> the vine <1612> of Sibmah <7643>: I will water <7301> thee with my tears <1832>, O Heshbon <2809>, and Elealeh <0500>: for the shouting <1959> for thy summer <7019> fruits and for thy harvest <7105> is fallen <5307>. 10 And gladness <8057> is taken <0622> away, and joy <1524> out of the plentiful <3759> field; and in the vineyards <3754> there shall be no <3808> singing <7442>, neither <3808> shall there be shouting <0731>: the treaders <1869> shall tread <1869> out no <3808> wine <3196> in [their] presses <3342>; I have made [their vintage] shouting <1959> to cease <7673>. 11 Wherefore my bowels <4578> shall sound <1993> like an harp <3658> for Moab <4124>, and mine inward <7130> parts for Kirharesh <7025>. 12 And it shall come <1961> to pass, when <3588> it is seen <7200> that Moab <4124> is weary <3811> on <5921> the high <1116> place, that he shall come <0935> to his sanctuary <4720> to pray <6419>; but he shall not prevail <3201>. 13 This <2008> [is] the word <1697> that the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> concerning <0413> Moab <4124> since that time <0227>. 14 But now <6258> the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696>, saying <0559>, Within three <7969> years <8141>, as the years <8141> of an hireling <7916>, and the glory <3519> of Moab <4124> shall be contemned <7034>, with all <3605> that great <7227> multitude <1995>; and the remnant <7605> [shall be] very <4213> small <4213> [and] feeble <3808>. Isaiah 17 1. The burden <4853> of Damascus <1834>. Behold <2009>, Damascus <1834> is taken <5493> away <5493> from [being] a city <5892>, and it shall be a ruinous <4654> heap <4596>. 2 The cities <5892> of Aroer <6177> [are] forsaken <5800>: they shall be for flocks <5739>, which shall lie <7257> down <7257>, and none <0369> shall make [them] afraid <2729>. 3 The fortress <4013> also shall cease <7673> from Ephraim <0669>, and the kingdom <4467> from Damascus <1834>, and the remnant <7605> of Syria <0758>: they shall be as the glory <3519> of the children <1121> of Israel <3478>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>. 4 And in that day <3117> it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] the glory <3519> of Jacob <3290> shall be made thin <1809>, and the fatness <4924> of his flesh <1320> shall wax lean <7329>. 5 And it shall be as when the harvestman <7105> gathereth <0622> the corn <7054>, and reapeth <7114> the ears <7641> with his arm <2220>; and it shall be as he that gathereth <3950> ears <7641> in the valley <6010> of Rephaim <7497>. 6. Yet gleaning <5955> grapes shall be left <7604> in it, as the shaking <5363> of an olive <2132> tree, two <8147> [or] three <7969> berries <1620> in the top <7218> of the uppermost bough <0534>, four <0702> [or] five <2568> in the outmost fruitful <6509> branches <5585> thereof, saith <5002> the LORD <3068> God <0430> of Israel <3478>. 7 At that day <3117> shall a man <0120> look <8159> to his Maker <6213>, and his eyes <5869> shall have respect <7200> to the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 8 And he shall not look <8159> to the altars <4196>, the work <4639> of his hands <3027>, neither <3808> shall respect <7200> [that] which <0834> his fingers <0676> have made <6213>, either the groves <0842>, or the images <2553>. 9. In that day <3117> shall his strong <4581> cities <5892> be as a forsaken <5800> bough <2793>, and an uppermost branch <0534>, which <0834> they left <5800> because <6440> of the children <1121> of Israel <3478>: and there shall be desolation <8077>. 10 Because <3588> thou hast forgotten <7911> the God <0430> of thy salvation <3468>, and hast not been mindful <2142> of the rock <6697> of thy strength <4581>, therefore shalt thou plant <5193> pleasant <2532> plants <5194>, and shalt set <2232> it with strange <2114> slips <2156>: 11 In the day <3117> shalt thou make thy plant <5194> to grow <7735>, and in the morning <1242> shalt thou make thy seed <2233> to flourish <6524>: [but] the harvest <7105> [shall be] a heap <5067> in the day <3117> of grief <2470> and of desperate <0605> sorrow <3511>. 12. Woe <1945> to the multitude <1995> of many <7227> people <5971>, [which] make a noise <1993> like the noise <1993> of the seas <3220>; and to the rushing <7588> of nations <3816>, [that] make a rushing <7582> like the rushing <7582> of mighty <3524> waters <4325>! 13 The nations <3816> shall rush <7582> like the rushing <7588> of many <7227> waters <4325>: but [God] shall rebuke <1605> them, and they shall flee <5127> far <4801> off, and shall be chased <7291> as the chaff <4671> of the mountains <2022> before <6440> the wind <7307>, and like a rolling <1534> thing before <6440> the whirlwind. 14 And behold <2009> at eveningtide trouble <1091>; [and] before <2962> the morning <1242> he [is] not. This <2088> [is] the portion <2506> of them that spoil <8154> us, and the lot <1486> of them that rob <0962> us. Isaiah 18 1. Woe <1945> to the land <0776> shadowing <6767> with wings <3671>, which <0834> [is] beyond <5676> the rivers <5104> of Ethiopia <3568>: 2 That sendeth <7971> ambassadors <6735> by the sea <3220>, even in vessels <3627> of bulrushes <1573> upon the waters <4325>, [saying], Go <3212>, ye swift <7031> messengers <4397>, to a nation <1471> scattered <4900> and peeled <4178>, to a people <5971> terrible <3372> from their beginning <1931> hitherto <1973>; a nation <1471> meted <6978> out and trodden <4001> down, whose <0834> land <0776> the rivers <5104> have spoiled <0958>! 3 All <3605> ye inhabitants <3427> of the world <8398>, and dwellers <7931> on the earth <0776>, see <7200> ye, when he lifteth <5375> up an ensign <5251> on the mountains <2022>; and when he bloweth <8628> a trumpet <7782>, hear <8085> ye. 4 For so <3541> the LORD <3068> said <0559> unto me, I will take my rest <8252>, and I will consider <5027> in my dwelling <4349> place like a clear <6703> heat <2527> upon herbs <0216>, [and] like a cloud <5645> of dew <2919> in the heat <2527> of harvest <7105>. 5 For afore <6440> the harvest <7105>, when <3588> the bud <6525> is perfect <8552>, and the sour <1155> grape <1155> is ripening <1580> in the flower <5327>, he shall both cut <3772> off the sprigs <2150> with pruning hooks, and take <5493> away <5493> [and] cut <8456> down the branches <5189>. 6 They shall be left <5800> together <3162> unto the fowls <5861> of the mountains <2022>, and to the beasts <0929> of the earth <0776>: and the fowls <5861> shall summer <6972> upon them, and all <3605> the beasts <0929> of the earth <0776> shall winter <2778> upon them. 7 In that time <6256> shall the present <7862> be brought <2986> unto the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> of a people <5971> scattered <4900> and peeled <4178>, and from a people <5971> terrible <3372> from their beginning <1931> hitherto <1973>; a nation <1471> meted <6978> out and trodden <4001> under foot <4001>, whose <0834> land <0776> the rivers <5104> have spoiled <0958>, to the place <4725> of the name <8034> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, the mount <2022> Zion <6726>. Isaiah 19 1. The burden <4853> of Egypt <4714>. Behold <2009>, the LORD <3068> rideth <7392> upon a swift <7031> cloud <5645>, and shall come <0935> into Egypt <4714>: and the idols <0457> of Egypt <4714> shall be moved <5128> at his presence <6440>, and the heart <3824> of Egypt <4714> shall melt <4549> in the midst <7130> of it. 2 And I will set <5526> the Egyptians <4714> against the Egyptians <4714>: and they shall fight <3898> every <0376> one <0376> against his brother <0251>, and every <0376> one <0376> against his neighbour <7453>; city <5892> against city <5892>, [and] kingdom <4467> against kingdom <4467>. 3 And the spirit <7307> of Egypt <4714> shall fail <1238> in the midst <7130> thereof; and I will destroy <1104> the counsel <6098> thereof: and they shall seek <1875> to the idols <0457>, and to the charmers <0328>, and to them that have familiar spirits <0178>, and to the wizards <3049>. 4 And the Egyptians <4714> will I give <5534> over <5534> into the hand <3027> of a cruel <7186> lord <0113>; and a fierce <5794> king <4428> shall rule <4910> over them, saith <5002> the Lord <0113>, the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>. 5 And the waters <4325> shall fail <5405> from the sea <3220>, and the river <5104> shall be wasted <2717> and dried <3001> up. 6 And they shall turn <2186> the rivers <5104> far away; [and] the brooks <2975> of defence <4692> shall be emptied <1809> and dried <2717> up: the reeds <7070> and flags <5488> shall wither <7060>. 7 The paper <6169> reeds by the brooks <2975>, by the mouth <6310> of the brooks <2975>, and every <3605> thing sown <4218> by the brooks <2975>, shall wither <3001>, be driven <5086> away, and be no <0369> [more]. 8 The fishers <1771> also shall mourn <0578>, and all <3605> they that cast <7993> angle <2443> into the brooks <2975> shall lament <56>, and they that spread <6566> nets <4364> upon the waters <4325> shall languish <0535>. 9 Moreover they that work <5647> in fine <8305> flax <6593>, and they that weave <0707> networks <2355>, shall be confounded <0954>. 10 And they shall be broken <1792> in the purposes <8356> thereof, all <3605> that make <6213> sluices <7938> [and] ponds <99> for fish <5315>. 11 Surely <0389> the princes <8269> of Zoan <6814> [are] fools <0191>, the counsel <6098> of the wise <2450> counsellors <3289> of Pharaoh <6547> is become <1197> brutish <1197>: how <0349> say <0559> ye unto Pharaoh <6547>, I [am] the son <1121> of the wise <2450>, the son <1121> of ancient <6924> kings <4428>? 12 Where <0335> [are] they? where <0645> [are] thy wise <2450> [men]? and let them tell <5046> thee now <4994>, and let them know <3045> what <4100> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> hath purposed <3289> upon Egypt <4714>. 13 The princes <8269> of Zoan <6814> are become <2973> fools <2973>, the princes <8269> of Noph <5297> are deceived <5377>; they have also seduced <8582> Egypt <4714>, [even they that are] the stay <6438> of the tribes <7626> thereof. 14 The LORD <3068> hath mingled <4537> a perverse <5773> spirit <7307> in the midst <7130> thereof: and they have caused Egypt <4714> to err <8582> in every <3605> work <4639> thereof, as a drunken <7910> [man] staggereth <8582> in his vomit <6892>. 15 Neither <3808> shall there be [any] work <4639> for Egypt <4714>, which the head <7218> or tail <2180>, branch <3712> or rush <0100>, may do <6213>. 16 In that day <3117> shall Egypt <4714> be like unto women <0802>: and it shall be afraid <2729> and fear <6342> because <6440> of the shaking <8573> of the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, which <0834> he shaketh <5130> over <5921> it. 17 And the land <0127> of Judah <3063> shall be a terror <2283> unto Egypt <4714>, every <3605> one that maketh mention <2142> thereof shall be afraid <6342> in himself, because <6440> of the counsel <6098> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, which <0834> he hath determined <3289> against <5921> it. 18. In that day <3117> shall five <2568> cities <5892> in the land <0776> of Egypt <4714> speak <1696> the language <8193> of Canaan <3667>, and swear <7650> to the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>; one <0259> shall be called <0559>, The city <5892> of destruction <2041>. 19 In that day <3117> shall there be an altar <4196> to the LORD <3068> in the midst <8432> of the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>, and a pillar <4676> at <0681> the border <1366> thereof to the LORD <3068>. 20 And it shall be for a sign <0226> and for a witness <5707> unto the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> in the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>: for they shall cry <6817> unto the LORD <3068> because <6440> of the oppressors <3905>, and he shall send <7971> them a saviour <3467>, and a great <7227> one, and he shall deliver <5337> them. 21 And the LORD <3068> shall be known <3045> to Egypt <4714>, and the Egyptians <4714> shall know <3045> the LORD <3068> in that day <3117>, and shall do <5647> sacrifice <2077> and oblation <4503>; yea, they shall vow <5087> a vow <5088> unto the LORD <3068>, and perform <7999> [it]. 22 And the LORD <3068> shall smite <5062> Egypt <4714>: he shall smite <5062> and heal <7495> [it]: and they shall return <7725> [even] to the LORD <3068>, and he shall be intreated <6279> of them, and shall heal <7495> them. 23 In that day <3117> shall there be a highway <4546> out of Egypt <4714> to Assyria <0804>, and the Assyrian <0804> shall come <0935> into Egypt <4714>, and the Egyptian <4714> into Assyria <0804>, and the Egyptians <4714> shall serve <5647> with the Assyrians <0804>. 24 In that day <3117> shall Israel <3478> be the third <7992> with Egypt <4714> and with Assyria <0804>, [even] a blessing <1293> in the midst <7130> of the land <0776>: 25 Whom <0834> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> shall bless <1288>, saying <0559>, Blessed <1288> [be] Egypt <4714> my people <5971>, and Assyria <0804> the work <4639> of my hands <3027>, and Israel <3478> mine inheritance <5159>. Isaiah 20 1. In the year <8141> that Tartan <8661> came <0935> unto Ashdod <0795>, (when Sargon <5623> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804> sent <7971> him,) and fought <3898> against Ashdod <0795>, and took <3920> it; 2 At the same <1931> time <6256> spake <1696> the LORD <3068> by Isaiah <3470> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531>, saying <0559>, Go <3212> and loose <6605> the sackcloth <8242> from off <5921> thy loins <4975>, and put <2502> off thy shoe <5275> from thy foot <7272>. And he did <6213> so <3651>, walking <1980> naked <6174> and barefoot <3182>. 3 And the LORD <3068> said <0559>, Like as my servant <5650> Isaiah <3470> hath walked <1980> naked <6174> and barefoot <3182> three <7969> years <8141> [for] a sign <0226> and wonder <4159> upon Egypt <4714> and upon Ethiopia <3568>; 4 So <3651> shall the king <4428> of Assyria <0804> lead <5090> away the Egyptians <4714> prisoners <7628>, and the Ethiopians <3569> captives <1546>, young <5288> and old <2205>, naked <6174> and barefoot <3182>, even with [their] buttocks <8357> uncovered <2834>, to the shame <6172> of Egypt <4714>. 5 And they shall be afraid <2865> and ashamed <0954> of Ethiopia <3568> their expectation <4007>, and of Egypt <4714> their glory <8597>. 6 And the inhabitant <3427> of this <2088> isle <0339> shall say <0559> in that day <3117>, Behold <2009>, such <3541> [is] our expectation <4007>, whither we flee <5127> for help <5833> to be delivered <5337> from the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>: and how <0349> shall we escape <4422>? Isaiah 21 1. The burden <4853> of the desert <4057> of the sea <3220>. As whirlwinds <5492> in the south <5045> pass <2498> through; [so] it cometh <0935> from the desert <4057>, from a terrible <3372> land <0776>. 2 A grievous <7186> vision <2380> is declared <5046> unto me; the treacherous <0898> dealer dealeth treacherously <0898>, and the spoiler <7703> spoileth <7703>. Go <5927> up, O Elam <5867>: besiege <6696>, O Media <4074>; all <3605> the sighing <0585> thereof have I made to cease <7673>. 3 Therefore are my loins <4975> filled <4390> with pain <2479>: pangs <6735> have taken <0270> hold <0270> upon me, as the pangs <6735> of a woman that travaileth <3205>: I was bowed <5791> down at the hearing <8085> [of it]; I was dismayed <0926> at the seeing <7200> [of it]. 4 My heart <3824> panted <8582>, fearfulness <6427> affrighted <1204> me: the night <5399> of my pleasure <2837> hath he turned <7760> into fear <2731> unto me. 5 Prepare <6186> the table <7979>, watch <6822> in the watchtower <6844>, eat <0398>, drink <8354>: arise <6965>, ye princes <8269>, [and] anoint <4886> the shield <4043>. 6 For thus <3541> hath the Lord <0136> said <0559> unto me, Go <3212>, set <5975> a watchman <6822>, let him declare <5046> what <0834> he seeth <7200>. 7 And he saw <7200> a chariot <7393> [with] a couple <6776> of horsemen <6571>, a chariot <7393> of asses <2543>, [and] a chariot <7393> of camels <1581>; and he hearkened <7181> diligently <7182> with much <7227> heed <7182>: 8 And he cried <7121>, A lion <0738>: My lord <0136>, I stand <5975> continually <8548> upon the watchtower <4707> in the daytime <3119>, and I am set <5324> in my ward <4931> whole <3605> nights <3915>: 9 And, behold <2009>, here <2088> cometh <0935> a chariot <7393> of men <0376>, [with] a couple <6776> of horsemen <6571>. And he answered <6030> and said <0559>, Babylon <0894> is fallen <5307>, is fallen <5307>; and all <3605> the graven <6456> images of her gods <0430> he hath broken <7665> unto the ground <0776>. 10 O my threshing <4098>, and the corn <1121> of my floor <1637>: that which <0834> I have heard <8085> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, the God <0430> of Israel <3478>, have I declared <5046> unto you. 11. The burden <4853> of Dumah <1746>. He calleth <7121> to me out of Seir <8165>, Watchman <8104>, what <4100> of the night <3915>? Watchman <8104>, what <4100> of the night <3915>? 12 The watchman <8104> said <0559>, The morning <1242> cometh <0857>, and also <1571> the night <3915>: if <0518> ye will enquire <1158>, enquire <1158> ye: return <7725>, come <0857>. 13. The burden <4853> upon Arabia <6152>. In the forest <3293> in Arabia <6152> shall ye lodge <3885>, O ye travelling <0736> companies <0736> of Dedanim <1720>. 14 The inhabitants <3427> of the land <0776> of Tema <8485> brought <0857> water <4325> to him that was thirsty <6771>, they prevented <6923> with their bread <3899> him that fled <5074>. 15 For they fled <5074> from the swords <2719>, from the drawn <5203> sword <2719>, and from the bent <1869> bow <7198>, and from the grievousness <3514> of war <4421>. 16 For thus <3541> hath the Lord <0136> said <0559> unto me, Within <5750> a year <8141>, according to the years <8141> of an hireling <7916>, and all <3605> the glory <3519> of Kedar <6938> shall fail <3615>: 17 And the residue <7605> of the number <4557> of archers <7198>, the mighty <1368> men of the children <1121> of Kedar <6938>, shall be diminished <4591>: for the LORD <3068> God <0430> of Israel <3478> hath spoken <1696> [it]. Isaiah 22 1. The burden <4853> of the valley <1516> of vision <2384>. What <4100> aileth thee now <0645>, that thou art wholly <3605> gone <5927> up to the housetops <1406>? 2 Thou that art full <4392> of stirs <8663>, a tumultuous <1993> city <5892>, a joyous <5947> city <7151>: thy slain <2491> [men are] not slain <2491> with the sword <2719>, nor <3808> dead <4191> in battle <4421>. 3 All <3605> thy rulers <7101> are fled <5074> together <3162>, they are bound <0631> by the archers <7198>: all <3605> that are found <4672> in thee are bound <0631> together <3162>, [which] have fled <1272> from far <7350>. 4 Therefore said <0559> I, Look <8159> away from me; I will weep <1065> bitterly <4843>, labour <0213> not to comfort <5162> me, because <5921> of the spoiling <7701> of the daughter <1323> of my people <5971>. 5 For [it is] a day <3117> of trouble <4103>, and of treading <4001> down, and of perplexity <3998> by the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635> in the valley <1516> of vision <2384>, breaking <6979> down the walls <7023>, and of crying <7771> to the mountains <2022>. 6 And Elam <5867> bare <5375> the quiver <0827> with chariots <7393> of men <0120> [and] horsemen <6571>, and Kir <7024> uncovered <6168> the shield <4043>. 7 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] thy choicest <4055> valleys <6010> shall be full <4390> of chariots <7393>, and the horsemen <6571> shall set <7896> themselves in array <7896> at the gate <8179>. 8. And he discovered <1540> the covering <4539> of Judah <3063>, and thou didst look <5027> in that day <3117> to the armour <5402> of the house <1004> of the forest <3293>. 9 Ye have seen <7200> also the breaches <1233> of the city <5892> of David <1732>, that they are many <7231>: and ye gathered <6908> together the waters <4325> of the lower <8481> pool <1295>. 10 And ye have numbered <5608> the houses <1004> of Jerusalem <3389>, and the houses <1004> have ye broken <5422> down <5422> to fortify <1219> the wall <2346>. 11 Ye made <6213> also a ditch <4724> between <0996> the two walls <2346> for the water <4325> of the old <3465> pool <1295>: but ye have not looked <5027> unto the maker <6213> thereof, neither <3808> had respect <7200> unto him that fashioned <3335> it long <7350> ago <7350>. 12 And in that day <3117> did the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635> call <7121> to weeping <1065>, and to mourning <4553>, and to baldness <7144>, and to girding <2296> with sackcloth <8242>: 13 And behold <2009> joy <8342> and gladness <8057>, slaying <2026> oxen <1241>, and killing <7819> sheep <6629>, eating <0398> flesh <1320>, and drinking <8354> wine <3196>: let us eat <0398> and drink <8354>; for to morrow <4279> we shall die <4191>. 14 And it was revealed <1540> in mine ears <0241> by the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, Surely <0518> this <2088> iniquity <5771> shall not be purged <3722> from you till <5704> ye die <4191>, saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635>. 15. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635>, Go <3212>, get <0935> thee unto this <2088> treasurer <5532>, [even] unto Shebna <7644>, which <0834> [is] over <5921> the house <1004>, [and say <0559>], 16 What <4100> hast thou here <6311>? and whom <4310> hast thou here <6311>, that thou hast hewed <2672> thee out a sepulchre <6913> here <6311>, [as] he that heweth <2672> him out a sepulchre <6913> on high <4791>, [and] that graveth an habitation <4908> for himself in a rock <5553>? 17 Behold <2009>, the LORD <3068> will carry <2904> thee away with a mighty <1397> captivity <2925>, and will surely cover <5844> thee. 18 He will surely violently turn <6801> and toss <6802> thee [like] a ball <1754> into <0413> a large country <0776>: there <8033> shalt thou die <4191>, and there <8033> the chariots <4818> of thy glory <3519> [shall be] the shame <7036> of thy lord's <0113> house <1004>. 19 And I will drive <1920> thee from thy station <4673>, and from thy state <4612> shall he pull <2040> thee down. 20 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, that I will call <7121> my servant <5650> Eliakim <0471> the son <1121> of Hilkiah <2518>: 21 And I will clothe <3847> him with thy robe <3301>, and strengthen <2388> him with thy girdle <73>, and I will commit <5414> thy government <4475> into his hand <3027>: and he shall be a father <1> to the inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>, and to the house <1004> of Judah <3063>. 22 And the key <4668> of the house <1004> of David <1732> will I lay <5414> upon his shoulder <7926>; so he shall open <6605>, and none <0369> shall shut <5462>; and he shall shut <5462>, and none <0369> shall open <6605>. 23 And I will fasten <8628> him [as] a nail <3489> in a sure <0539> place <4725>; and he shall be for a glorious <3519> throne <3678> to his father's <1> house <1004>. 24 And they shall hang <8518> upon him all <3605> the glory <3519> of his father's <1> house <1004>, the offspring <6631> and the issue <6849>, all <3605> vessels <3627> of small <6996> quantity, from the vessels <3627> of cups <0101>, even to all <3605> the vessels <3627> of flagons <5035>. 25 In that day <3117>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, shall the nail <3489> that is fastened <8628> in the sure <0539> place <4725> be removed <4185>, and be cut <1438> down <1438>, and fall <5307>; and the burden <4853> that [was] upon it shall be cut <3772> off: for the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> [it]. Isaiah 23 1. The burden <4853> of Tyre <6865>. Howl <3213>, ye ships <0591> of Tarshish <8659>; for it is laid waste <7703>, so that there is no house <1004>, no entering <0935> in: from the land <0776> of Chittim <3794> it is revealed <1540> to them. 2 Be still <1826>, ye inhabitants <3427> of the isle <0339>; thou whom the merchants <5503> of Zidon <6721>, that pass <5674> over <5674> the sea <3220>, have replenished <4390>. 3 And by great <7227> waters <4325> the seed <2233> of Sihor <7883>, the harvest <7105> of the river <2975>, [is] her revenue <8393>; and she is a mart <5505> of nations <1471>. 4 Be thou ashamed <0954>, O Zidon <6721>: for the sea <3220> hath spoken <0559>, [even] the strength <4581> of the sea <3220>, saying <0559>, I travail <2342> not, nor <3808> bring <3205> forth <3205> children, neither <3808> do I nourish <1431> up young <0970> men, [nor] bring <7311> up virgins <1330>. 5 As at the report <8088> concerning Egypt <4714>, [so] shall they be sorely pained <2342> at the report <8088> of Tyre <6865>. 6 Pass <5674> ye over <5674> to Tarshish <8659>; howl <3213>, ye inhabitants <3427> of the isle <0339>. 7 [Is] this <2063> your joyous <5947> [city], whose antiquity <6927> [is] of ancient <6924> days <3117>? her own feet <7272> shall carry <2986> her afar <7350> off to sojourn <1481>. 8 Who <4310> hath taken this <2063> counsel <3289> against <5921> Tyre <6865>, the crowning <5849> [city], whose <0834> merchants <5503> [are] princes <8269>, whose traffickers <3669> [are] the honourable <1935> of the earth <0776>? 9 The LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> hath purposed <3289> it, to stain <2490> the pride <1347> of all <3605> glory <6643>, [and] to bring <7034> into contempt <7043> all <3605> the honourable <3513> of the earth <0776>. 10 Pass <5674> through thy land <0776> as a river <2975>, O daughter <1323> of Tarshish <8659>: [there is] no <0369> more <5750> strength <4206>. 11 He stretched <5186> out his hand <3027> over <5921> the sea <3220>, he shook <7264> the kingdoms <4467>: the LORD <3068> hath given a commandment <6680> against <0413> the merchant <3667> [city], to destroy <8045> the strong <4581> holds <4581> thereof. 12 And he said <0559>, Thou shalt no <3808> more <5750> rejoice <5937>, O thou oppressed <6231> virgin <1330>, daughter <1323> of Zidon <6721>: arise <6965>, pass <5674> over <5674> to Chittim <3794>; there <8033> also <1571> shalt thou have no <3808> rest <5117>. 13 Behold <2005> the land <0776> of the Chaldeans <3778>; this <2088> people <5971> was not, [till] the Assyrian <0804> founded <3245> it for them that dwell in the wilderness <6728>: they set <6965> up the towers <0971> thereof, they raised <6209> up the palaces <0759> thereof; [and] he brought <7760> it to ruin <4654>. 14 Howl <3213>, ye ships <0591> of Tarshish <8659>: for your strength <4581> is laid waste <7703>. 15. And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, that Tyre <6865> shall be forgotten <7911> seventy <7657> years <8141>, according to the days <3117> of one <0259> king <4428>: after the end <7093> of seventy <7657> years <8141> shall Tyre <6865> sing <7892> as an harlot <2181>. 16 Take <3947> an harp <3658>, go <5437> about <5437> the city <5892>, thou harlot <2181> that hast been forgotten <7911>; make sweet <3190> melody <5059>, sing many <7235> songs <7892>, that thou mayest be remembered <2142>. 17 And it shall come <1961> to pass after the end <7093> of seventy <7657> years <8141>, that the LORD <3068> will visit <6485> Tyre <6865>, and she shall turn <7725> to her hire <0868>, and shall commit <2181> fornication <2181> with all <3605> the kingdoms <4467> of the world <0776> upon the face <6440> of the earth <0127>. 18 And her merchandise <5504> and her hire <0868> shall be holiness <6944> to the LORD <3068>: it shall not be treasured <0686> nor <3808> laid <2630> up; for her merchandise <5504> shall be for them that dwell <3427> before <6440> the LORD <3068>, to eat <0398> sufficiently <7654>, and for durable <6266> clothing <4374>. Isaiah 24 1. Behold <2009>, the LORD <3068> maketh the earth <0776> empty <1238>, and maketh it waste <1110>, and turneth <5753> it upside down, and scattereth <6327> abroad <6327> the inhabitants <3427> thereof. 2 And it shall be, as with the people <5971>, so with the priest <3548>; as with the servant <5650>, so with his master <0113>; as with the maid <8198>, so with her mistress <1404>; as with the buyer <7069>, so with the seller <4376>; as with the lender <3867>, so with the borrower <3867>; as with the taker of usury <5383>, so with the giver of usury <5378> to him. 3 The land <0776> shall be utterly emptied <1238>, and utterly spoiled <0962>: for the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> this <2088> word <1697>. 4 The earth <0776> mourneth <56> [and] fadeth <5034> away, the world <8398> languisheth <0535> [and] fadeth <5034> away, the haughty <4791> people <5971> of the earth <0776> do languish <0535>. 5 The earth <0776> also is defiled <2610> under <8478> the inhabitants <3427> thereof; because <3588> they have transgressed <5674> the laws <8451>, changed <2498> the ordinance <2706>, broken <6565> the everlasting <5769> covenant <1285>. 6 Therefore hath the curse <0423> devoured <0398> the earth <0776>, and they that dwell <3427> therein are desolate <0816>: therefore the inhabitants <3427> of the earth <0776> are burned <2787>, and few <4213> men <0582> left <7604>. 7 The new <8492> wine <8492> mourneth <56>, the vine <1612> languisheth <0535>, all <3605> the merryhearted do sigh <0584>. 8 The mirth <4885> of tabrets <8596> ceaseth <7673>, the noise <7588> of them that rejoice <5947> endeth <2308>, the joy <4885> of the harp <3658> ceaseth <7673>. 9 They shall not drink <8354> wine <3196> with a song <7892>; strong drink <7941> shall be bitter <4843> to them that drink <8354> it. 10 The city <7151> of confusion <8414> is broken <7665> down: every <3605> house <1004> is shut <5462> up, that no man <0935> may come <0935> in. 11 [There is] a crying <6682> for wine <3196> in the streets <2351>; all <3605> joy <8057> is darkened <6150>, the mirth <4885> of the land <0776> is gone <1540>. 12 In the city <5892> is left <7604> desolation <8047>, and the gate <8179> is smitten <3807> with destruction <7591>. 13. When <3588> thus <3541> it shall be in the midst <7130> of the land <0776> among <8432> the people <5971>, [there shall be] as the shaking <5363> of an olive <2132> tree, [and] as the gleaning <5955> grapes when <0518> the vintage <1210> is done <3615>. 14 They shall lift <5375> up their voice <6963>, they shall sing <7442> for the majesty <1347> of the LORD <3068>, they shall cry <6670> aloud <6670> from the sea <3220>. 15 Wherefore glorify <3513> ye the LORD <3068> in the fires <0217>, [even] the name <8034> of the LORD <3068> God <0430> of Israel <3478> in the isles <0339> of the sea <3220>. 16. From the uttermost <3671> part of the earth <0776> have we heard <8085> songs <2158>, [even] glory <6643> to the righteous <6662>. But I said <0559>, My leanness <7334>, my leanness <7334>, 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 <6343>, and the pit <6354>, and the snare <6341>, [are] upon thee, O inhabitant <3427> of the earth <0776>. 18 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] he who fleeth <5127> from the noise <6963> of the fear <6343> shall fall <5307> into <0413> the pit <6354>; and he that cometh <5927> up out of the midst <8432> of the pit <6354> shall be taken <3920> in the snare <6341>: for the windows <0699> from on high <4791> are open <6605>, and the foundations <4146> of the earth <0776> do shake <7493>. 19 The earth <0776> is utterly broken <7489> down, the earth <0776> is clean <6565> dissolved <6565>, the earth <0776> is moved <4132> exceedingly. 20 The earth <0776> shall reel <5128> to and fro like a drunkard <7910>, and shall be removed <5110> like a cottage <4412>; and the transgression <6588> thereof shall be heavy <3513> upon it; and it shall fall <5307>, and not rise <6965> again <3254>. 21 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] the LORD <3068> shall punish <6485> the host <6635> of the high <4791> ones [that are] on high <4791>, and the kings <4428> 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 <5462> up in the prison <4525>, and after many <7230> days <3117> shall they be visited <6485>. 23 Then the moon <3842> shall be confounded <2659>, and the sun <2535> ashamed <0954>, when <3588> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> shall reign <4427> in mount <2022> Zion <6726>, and in Jerusalem <3389>, and before <5048> his ancients <2204> gloriously <3519>. Isaiah 25 1. O LORD <3068>, thou [art] my God <0430>; I will exalt <7311> thee, I will praise <3034> thy name <8034>; for thou hast done <6213> wonderful <6382> [things; thy] counsels <6098> of old <7350> [are] faithfulness <0530> [and] truth <0544>. 2 For thou hast made <7760> of a city <5892> an heap <1530>; [of] a defenced <1219> city <7151> a ruin <4654>: a palace <0759> of strangers <2114> to be no city <5892>; it shall never be built <1129>. 3 Therefore shall the strong <5794> people <5971> glorify <3513> thee, the city <7151> of the terrible <6184> nations <1471> shall fear <3372> thee. 4 For thou hast been <1961> a strength <4581> to the poor <1800>, a strength <4581> to the needy <34> in his distress <6862>, a refuge <4268> from the storm <2230>, a shadow <6738> from the heat <2721>, when <3588> the blast <7307> of the terrible <6184> ones [is] as a storm <2230> [against] the wall <7023>. 5 Thou shalt bring <3665> down <3665> the noise <7588> of strangers <2114>, as the heat <2721> in a dry <6724> place; [even] the heat <2721> with the shadow <6738> of a cloud <5645>: the branch <2158> of the terrible <6184> ones shall be brought <6030> low <6030>. 6. And in this <2088> mountain <2022> shall the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> make <6213> unto all <3605> people <5971> a feast <4960> of fat <8081> things, a feast <4960> of wines <8105> on the lees <8105>, of fat <8081> things full of marrow <4229>, of wines <8105> on the lees <8105> well refined <2212>. 7 And he will destroy <1104> in this <2088> mountain <2022> the face <6440> of the covering <3875> cast <3874> over <5921> all <3605> people <5971>, and the vail <4541> that is spread <5259> over <5921> all <3605> nations <1471>. 8 He will swallow <1104> up death <4194> in victory <5331>; and the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> will wipe <4229> away tears <1832> from off <5921> all <3605> faces <6440>; and the rebuke <2781> of his people <5971> shall he take <5493> away <5493> from off <5921> all <3605> the earth <0776>: for the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> [it]. 9. And it shall be said <0559> in that day <3117>, Lo <2009>, this <2088> [is] our God <0430>; we have waited <6960> for him, and he will save <3467> us: this <2088> [is] the LORD <3068>; we have waited <6960> for him, we will be glad <1528> and rejoice <8055> in his salvation <3444>. 10 For in this <2088> mountain <2022> shall the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> rest <5117>, and Moab <4124> shall be trodden <1758> down under <8478> him, even as straw <4963> is trodden <1758> down for the dunghill <4087>. 11 And he shall spread <6566> forth his hands <3027> in the midst <7130> of them, as he that swimmeth <7811> spreadeth <6566> forth [his hands] to swim <7811>: and he shall bring <8213> down <8213> their pride <1346> together with the spoils <0698> of their hands <3027>. 12 And the fortress <4013> of the high <4869> fort <4869> of thy walls <2346> shall he bring <7817> down <7817>, lay low <8213>, [and] bring <5060> to the ground <0776>, [even] to the dust <6083>. Isaiah 26 1. In that day <3117> shall this <2088> song <7892> be sung <7891> in the land <0776> of Judah <3063>; We have a strong <5797> city <5892>; salvation <3444> will [God] appoint <7896> [for] walls <2346> and bulwarks <2426>. 2 Open <6605> ye the gates <8179>, that the righteous <6662> nation <1471> which keepeth <8104> the truth <0529> may enter <0935> in. 3 Thou wilt keep <5341> [him] in perfect peace <7965>, [whose] mind <3336> [is] stayed <5564> [on thee]: because <3588> he trusteth <0982> in thee. 4 Trust <0982> ye in the LORD <3068> for ever <5703>: for in the LORD <3050> JEHOVAH <3068> [is] everlasting <5769> strength <6697>: 5. For he bringeth <7817> down <7817> them that dwell <3427> on <4791> high <4791>; the lofty <7682> city <7151>, he layeth it low <8213>; he layeth it low <8213>, [even] to the ground <0776>; he bringeth <5060> it [even] to the dust <6083>. 6 The foot <7272> shall tread <7429> it down, [even] the feet <7272> of the poor <6041>, [and] the steps <6471> of the needy <1800>. 7 The way <0734> of the just <6662> [is] uprightness <4339>: thou, most upright <3477>, dost weigh <6424> the path <4570> of the just <6662>. 8 Yea <0637>, in the way <0734> of thy judgments <4941>, O LORD <3068>, have we waited <6960> for thee; the desire <8378> of [our] soul <5315> [is] to thy name <8034>, and to the remembrance <2143> of thee. 9 With my soul <5315> have I desired <0183> thee in the night <3915>; yea <0637>, with my spirit <7307> within <7130> me will I seek <7836> thee early <7836>: for when <0834> thy judgments <4941> [are] in the earth <0776>, the inhabitants <3427> of the world <8398> will learn <3925> righteousness <6664>. 10 Let favour <2603> be shewed to the wicked <7563>, [yet] will he not learn <3925> righteousness <6664>: in the land <0776> of uprightness <5229> will he deal unjustly <5765>, and will not behold <7200> the majesty <1348> of the LORD <3068>. 11 LORD <3068>, [when] thy hand <3027> is lifted <5375> up, they will not see <2372>: [but] they shall see <2372>, and be ashamed <0954> for [their] envy <7068> at the people <5971>; yea <0637>, the fire <0784> of thine enemies <6862> shall devour <0398> them. 12. LORD <3068>, thou wilt ordain <8239> peace <7965> for us: for thou also <1571> hast wrought <6466> all <3605> our works <4639> in us. 13 O LORD <3068> our God <0430>, [other] lords <0113> beside <2108> thee have had dominion <1196> over us: [but] by thee only <0905> will we make mention <2142> of thy name <8034>. 14 [They are] dead <4191>, they shall not live <2421>; [they are] deceased <7496>, they shall not rise <6965>: therefore <3651> hast thou visited <6485> and destroyed <8045> them, and made all <3605> their memory <2143> to perish <6>. 15 Thou hast increased <3254> the nation <1471>, O LORD <3068>, thou hast increased <3254> the nation <1471>: thou art glorified <3513>: thou hadst removed <7368> [it] far <7368> [unto] all <3605> the ends <7097> of the earth <0776>. 16 LORD <3068>, in trouble <6862> have they visited <6485> thee, they poured <6694> out a prayer <3908> [when] thy chastening <4148> [was] upon them. 17 Like <3644> as a woman with child <2030>, [that] draweth near <7126> the time of her delivery <3205>, is in pain <2342>, [and] crieth <2199> out in her pangs <2256>; so <3651> have we been <1961> in thy sight <6440>, O LORD <3068>. 18 We have been with child <2029>, we have been in pain <2342>, we have as it were brought <3205> forth <3205> wind <7307>; we have not wrought <6213> any deliverance <3444> in the earth <0776>; neither <1077> have the inhabitants <3427> of the world <8398> fallen <5307>. 19 Thy dead <4191> [men] shall live <2421>, [together with] my dead <5038> body <5038> shall they arise <6965>. Awake <6974> and sing <7442>, ye that dwell <7931> in dust <6083>: for thy dew <2919> [is as] the dew <2919> of herbs <0219>, and the earth <0776> shall cast <5307> out the dead <7496>. 20. Come <3212>, my people <5971>, enter <0935> thou into thy chambers <2315>, and shut <5462> thy doors <1817> about <1157> thee: hide <2247> thyself as it were for a little <4592> moment <7281>, until <5704> the indignation <2195> be overpast <5674>. 21 For, behold <2009>, the LORD <3068> cometh <3318> out of his place <4725> to punish <6485> the inhabitants <3427> of the earth <0776> for their iniquity <5771>: the earth <0776> also shall disclose <1540> her blood <1818>, and shall no <3808> more <5750> cover <3680> her slain <2026>. Isaiah 27 1. In that day <3117> the LORD <3068> with his sore <7186> and great <1419> and strong <2389> sword <2719> shall punish <6485> leviathan <3882> the piercing <1281> serpent <5175>, even leviathan <3882> that crooked <6129> serpent <5175>; and he shall slay <2026> the dragon <8577> that [is] in the sea <3220>. 2 In that day <3117> sing <6031> ye unto her, A vineyard <3754> of red <2561> wine <2561>. 3 I the LORD <3068> do keep <5341> it; I will water <8248> it every moment <7281>: lest <6435> [any] hurt <6485> it, I will keep <5341> it night <3915> and day <3117>. 4 Fury <2534> [is] not in me: who <4310> would set <5414> the briers <8068> [and] thorns <7898> against me in battle <4421>? I would go <6585> through them, I would burn <6702> them together <3162>. 5 Or <0176> let him take <2388> hold <2388> of my strength <4581>, [that] he may make <6213> peace <7965> with me; [and] he shall make <6213> peace <7965> with me. 6 He shall cause them that come <0935> of Jacob <3290> to take <2388> root <8327>: Israel <3478> shall blossom <6692> and bud <6524>, and fill <4390> the face <6440> of the world <8398> with fruit <8570>. 7. Hath he smitten <5221> him, as he smote <4347> those that smote <5221> him? [or] is he slain <2026> according to the slaughter <2027> of them that are slain <2026> by him? 8 In measure <5432>, when it shooteth <7971> forth, thou wilt debate <7378> with it: he stayeth <1898> his rough <7186> wind <7307> in the day <3117> of the east <6921> wind. 9 By this <2063> therefore <3651> shall the iniquity <5771> of Jacob <3290> be purged <3722>; and this <2088> [is] all <3605> the fruit <6529> to take <5493> away <5493> his sin <2403>; when he maketh <7760> all <3605> the stones <68> of the altar <4196> as chalkstones that are beaten <5310> in sunder, the groves <0842> and images <2553> shall not stand <6965> up. 10 Yet the defenced <1219> city <5892> [shall be] desolate <0910>, [and] the habitation <5116> forsaken <7971>, and left <5800> like a wilderness <4057>: there <8033> shall the calf <5695> feed <7462>, and there <8033> shall he lie <7257> down <7257>, and consume <3615> the branches <5585> thereof. 11 When the boughs <7105> thereof are withered <3001>, they shall be broken <7665> off: the women <0802> come <0935>, [and] set them on fire <0215>: for it [is] a people <5971> of no <3808> understanding <0998>: therefore he that made <6213> them will not have mercy <7355> on them, and he that formed <3335> them will shew them no <3808> favour <2603>. 12 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] the LORD <3068> shall beat <2251> off from the channel <7641> of the river <5104> unto the stream <5158> of Egypt <4714>, and ye shall be gathered <3950> one <0259> by one <0259>, O ye children <1121> of Israel <3478>. 13 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that] the great <1419> trumpet <7782> shall be blown <8628>, and they shall come <0935> which were ready to perish <6> in the land <0776> of Assyria <0804>, and the outcasts <5080> in the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>, and shall worship <7812> the LORD <3068> in the holy <6944> mount <2022> at Jerusalem <3389>. Isaiah 28 1. Woe <1945> to the crown <5850> of pride <1348>, to the drunkards <7910> of Ephraim <0669>, whose glorious <6643> beauty <8597> [is] a fading <5034> flower <6731>, which <0834> [are] on the head <7218> of the fat <8081> valleys <1516> of them that are overcome <1986> with wine <3196>! 2 Behold <2009>, the Lord <0136> hath a mighty <2389> and strong <0533> one, [which] as a tempest <2230> of hail <1259> [and] a destroying <6986> storm <8178>, as a flood <2230> of mighty <3524> waters <4325> overflowing <7857>, shall cast <3240> down to the earth <0776> with the hand <3027>. 3 The crown <5850> of pride <1348>, the drunkards <7910> of Ephraim <0669>, shall be trodden <7429> under feet <7272>: 4 And the glorious <6643> beauty <8597>, which <0834> [is] on <5921> the head <7218> of the fat <8081> valley <1516>, shall be a fading <5034> flower <6733>, [and] as the hasty <1061> fruit <1061> before <2962> the summer <7019>; which <0834> [when] he that looketh <7200> upon it seeth <7200>, while it is yet <5750> in his hand <3709> he eateth <1104> it up. 5 In that day <3117> shall the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> be for a crown <5850> of glory <6643>, and for a diadem <6843> of beauty <8597>, unto the residue <7605> of his people <5971>, 6 And for a spirit <7307> of judgment <4941> to him that sitteth <3427> in judgment <4941>, and for strength <1369> to them that turn <7725> the battle <4421> to the gate <8179>. 7 But they also <1571> have erred <7686> through wine <3196>, and through strong drink <7941> are out of the way <8582>; the priest <3548> and the prophet <5030> have erred <7686> through strong drink <7941>, they are swallowed <1104> up of wine <3196>, they are out of the way <8582> through <4480> strong drink <7941>; they err <7686> in vision <7203>, they stumble <6328> [in] judgment <6417>. 8 For all <3605> tables <7979> are full <4390> of vomit <6892> [and] filthiness <6675>, [so that there is] no <1097> place <4725> [clean]. 9. Whom shall he teach <3384> knowledge <1844>? and whom shall he make to understand <0995> doctrine <8052>? [them that are] weaned <1580> from the milk <2461>, [and] drawn <6267> from the breasts <7699>. 10 For precept <6673> [must be] upon precept <6673>, precept <6673> upon precept <6673>; line <6957> upon line <6957>, line <6957> upon line <6957>; here <8033> a little <2191>, [and] there <8033> a little <2191>: 11 For with stammering <3934> lips <8193> and another <0312> tongue <3956> will he speak <1696> to this <2088> people <5971>. 12 To whom he said <0559>, This <2063> [is] the rest <4496> [wherewith <0834>] ye may cause the weary <5889> to rest <5117>; and this <2063> [is] the refreshing <4774>: yet they would <14> not hear <8085>. 13 But the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> was unto them precept <6673> upon precept <6673>, precept <6673> upon precept <6673>; line <6957> upon line <6957>, line <6957> upon line <6957>; here <8033> a little <2191>, [and] there <8033> a little <2191>; that they might go <3212>, and fall <3782> backward <0268>, and be broken <7665>, and snared <3369>, and taken <3920>. 14. Wherefore <3651> hear <8085> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068>, ye scornful <3944> men <0582>, that rule <4910> this <2088> people <5971> which <0834> [is] in Jerusalem <3389>. 15 Because <3588> ye have said <0559>, We have made <3772> a covenant <1285> with death <4194>, and with hell <7585> are we at agreement <2374>; when <3588> the overflowing <7857> scourge <7885> shall pass <5674> through, it shall not come <0935> unto us: for we have made <7760> lies <3576> our refuge <4268>, and under falsehood <8267> have we hid <5641> ourselves: 16 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, Behold <2005>, I lay in Zion <6726> for a foundation <3248> a stone <68>, a tried <0976> stone <68>, a precious <3368> corner <6438> [stone], a sure <3245> foundation <4143>: he that believeth <0539> shall not make haste <2363>. 17 Judgment <4941> also will I lay <7760> to the line <6957>, and righteousness <6666> to the plummet <4949>: and the hail <1259> shall sweep <3261> away the refuge <4268> of lies <3576>, and the waters <4325> shall overflow <7857> the hiding <5643> place. 18 And your covenant <1285> with death <4194> shall be disannulled <3722>, and your agreement <2380> with hell <7585> shall not stand <6965>; when <3588> the overflowing <7857> scourge <7752> shall pass <5674> through, then ye shall be trodden <4823> down by it. 19 From the time <1767> that it goeth <5674> forth <5674> it shall take <3947> you: for morning <1242> by morning <1242> shall it pass <5674> over <5674>, by day <3117> and by night <3915>: and it shall be a vexation <2113> only <7535> [to] understand <0995> the report <8052>. 20 For the bed <4702> is shorter <7114> than that [a man <0376>] can stretch <8311> himself [on it]: and the covering <4541> narrower <6887> than that he can wrap <3664> himself [in it]. 21 For the LORD <3068> shall rise <6965> up as [in] mount <2022> Perazim, he shall be wroth <7264> as [in] the valley <6010> of Gibeon <1391>, that he may do <6213> his work <4639>, his strange <2114> work <4639>; and bring <5647> to pass <5674> his act <5556>, his strange <5237> act <5556>. 22 Now <6258> therefore be ye not mockers <3887>, lest <6435> your bands <4147> be made strong <2388>: for I have heard <8085> from the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of hosts <6635> a consumption <3617>, even determined <2782> upon the whole <3605> earth <0776>. 23. Give ye ear <0238>, and hear <8085> my voice <6963>; hearken <7181>, and hear <8085> my speech <0565>. 24 Doth the plowman <2790> plow <2790> all <3605> day <3117> to sow <2232>? doth he open <6605> and break <7702> the clods <7702> of his ground <0127>? 25 When <0518> he hath made plain <7737> the face <6440> thereof, doth he not cast <6327> abroad <6327> the fitches <7100>, and scatter <2236> the cummin <3646>, and cast <7760> in the principal <7795> wheat <2406> and the appointed <5567> barley <8184> and the rie <3698> in their place <1367>? 26 For his God <0430> doth instruct <3256> him to discretion <4941>, [and] doth teach <3384> him. 27 For the fitches <7100> are not threshed <1758> with a threshing <2742> instrument, neither <1077> is a cart <5699> wheel <0212> turned <5437> about upon the cummin <3646>; but the fitches <7100> are beaten <2251> out with a staff <4294>, and the cummin <3646> with a rod <7626>. 28 Bread <3899> [corn] is bruised <1854>; because <3588> he will not ever <5331> be threshing <1758> it, nor break <2000> [it with] the wheel <1536> of his cart <5699>, nor <3808> bruise <1854> it [with] his horsemen <6571>. 29 This <2088> also <1571> cometh <3318> forth <3318> from the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, [which] is wonderful <6381> in counsel <6098>, [and] excellent <1431> in working <8454>. Isaiah 29 1. Woe <1945> to Ariel <0740>, to Ariel <0740>, the city <7151> [where] David <1732> dwelt <2583>! add <5595> ye year <8141> to year <8141>; let them kill <5362> sacrifices <2282>. 2 Yet I will distress <6693> Ariel <0740>, and there shall be heaviness <8386> and sorrow <0592>: and it shall be unto me as Ariel <0740>. 3 And I will camp <2583> against <5921> thee round <1754> about, and will lay siege <6696> against <5921> thee with a mount <4674>, and I will raise <6965> forts <4694> against <5921> thee. 4 And thou shalt be brought <8213> down <8213>, [and] shalt speak <1696> out of the ground <0776>, and thy speech <0565> shall be low <7817> out of the dust <6083>, and thy voice <6963> shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit <0178>, out of the ground <0776>, and thy speech <0565> shall whisper <6850> out of the dust <6083>. 5 Moreover the multitude <1995> of thy strangers <2114> shall be like small <1851> dust <80>, and the multitude <1995> of the terrible <6184> ones [shall be] as chaff <4671> that passeth <5674> away: yea, it shall be at an instant <6621> suddenly <6597>. 6 Thou shalt be visited <6485> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> with thunder <7482>, and with earthquake <7494>, and great <1419> noise <6963>, with storm <5492> and tempest <5591>, and the flame <3851> of devouring <0398> fire <0784>. 7 And the multitude <1995> of all <3605> the nations <1471> that fight <6633> against <5921> Ariel <0740>, even all <3605> that fight <6633> against her and her munition <4685>, and that distress <6693> her, shall be as a dream <2472> of a night <3915> vision <2377>. 8 It shall even be as when <0834> an hungry <7456> [man] dreameth <2492>, and, behold <2009>, he eateth <0398>; but he awaketh <6974>, and his soul <5315> is empty <7385>: or as when <0834> a thirsty <6771> man dreameth <2492>, and, behold <2009>, he drinketh <8354>; but he awaketh <6974>, and, behold <2009>, [he is] faint <5889>, and his soul <5315> hath appetite <8264>: so shall the multitude <1995> of all <3605> the nations <1471> be, that fight <6633> against <5921> mount <2022> Zion <6726>. 9. Stay <4102> yourselves, and wonder <8539>; cry <8173> ye out, and cry <8173>: they are drunken <7937>, but not with wine <3196>; they stagger <5128>, but not with strong drink <7941>. 10 For the LORD <3068> hath poured <5258> out upon you the spirit <7307> of deep <8639> sleep <8639>, and hath closed <6105> your eyes <5869>: the prophets <5030> and your rulers <7218>, the seers <2374> hath he covered <3680>. 11 And the vision <2380> of all <3605> is become <1961> unto you as the words <1697> of a book <5612> that is sealed <2856>, which <0834> [men] deliver <5414> to one that is learned, saying <0559>, Read <7121> this <2088>, I pray <4994> thee: and he saith <0559>, I cannot; for it [is] sealed <2856>: 12 And the book <5612> is delivered <5414> to him that is not learned, saying <0559>, Read <7121> this <2088>, I pray <4994> thee: and he saith <0559>, I am not learned. 13 Wherefore the Lord <0136> said <0559>, Forasmuch as this people <5971> draw near <5066> [me] with their mouth <6310>, and with their lips <8193> do honour <3513> me, but have removed <7368> their heart <3820> far <7368> from me, and their fear <3374> toward <0854> me is taught <3925> by the precept <4687> of men <0582>: 14 Therefore <3651>, behold <2005>, I will proceed <3254> to do a marvellous <6381> work <6381> among this <2088> people <5971>, [even] a marvellous <6381> work <6381> and a wonder <6382>: for the wisdom <2451> of their wise <2450> [men] shall perish <6>, and the understanding <0998> of their prudent <0995> [men] shall be hid <5641>. 15 Woe <1945> unto them that seek deep <6009> to hide <5641> their counsel <6098> from the LORD <3068>, and their works <4639> are in the dark <4285>, and they say <0559>, Who <4310> seeth <7200> us? and who <4310> knoweth <3045> us? 16 Surely <0518> your turning <2017> of things upside down shall be esteemed <2803> as the potter's <3335> clay <2563>: for shall the work <4639> say <0559> of him that made <6213> it, He made <6213> me not? or shall the thing framed <3336> say <0559> of him that framed <3335> it, He had no <3808> understanding <0995>? 17. [Is] it not yet <5750> a very <4213> little <4592> while, and Lebanon <3844> shall be turned <7725> into a fruitful <3759> field, and the fruitful <3759> field shall be esteemed <2803> as a forest <3293>? 18 And in that day <3117> shall the deaf <2795> hear <8085> the words <1697> of the book <5612>, and the eyes <5869> of the blind <5787> shall see <7200> out of obscurity <0652>, and out of darkness <2822>. 19 The meek <6035> also shall increase <3254> [their] joy <8057> in the LORD <3068>, and the poor <34> among men <0120> shall rejoice <1523> in the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 20 For the terrible <6184> one is brought <0656> to nought <0656>, and the scorner <3887> is consumed <3615>, and all <3605> that watch <8245> for iniquity <0205> are cut <3772> off: 21 That make a man <0120> an offender <2398> for a word <1697>, and lay a snare <6983> for him that reproveth <3198> in the gate <8179>, and turn <5186> aside <5186> the just <6662> for a thing of nought <8414>. 22 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, who <0834> redeemed <6299> Abraham <85>, concerning <0413> the house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, Jacob <3290> shall not now <6258> be ashamed <0954>, neither <3808> shall his face <6440> now <6258> wax pale <2357>. 23 But when <3588> he seeth <7200> his children <3206>, the work <4639> of mine hands <3027>, in the midst <7130> of him, they shall sanctify <6942> my name <8034>, and sanctify <6942> the Holy <6918> One of Jacob <3290>, and shall fear <6206> the God <0430> of Israel <3478>. 24 They also that erred <8582> in spirit <7307> shall come <3045> to understanding <0998>, and they that murmured <7279> shall learn <3925> doctrine <3948>. Isaiah 30 1. Woe <1945> to the rebellious <5637> children <1121>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, that take <6213> counsel <6098>, but not of me; and that cover <5258> with a covering <4541>, but not of my spirit <7307>, that they may add <5595> sin <2403> to sin <2403>: 2 That walk <1980> to go <3381> down <3381> into Egypt <4714>, and have not asked <7592> at my mouth <6310>; to strengthen <5810> themselves in the strength <4581> of Pharaoh <6547>, and to trust <2620> in the shadow <6738> of Egypt <4714>! 3 Therefore shall the strength <4581> of Pharaoh <6547> be your shame <1322>, and the trust <2622> in the shadow <6738> of Egypt <4714> [your] confusion <3639>. 4 For his princes <8269> were at Zoan <6814>, and his ambassadors <4397> came <5060> to Hanes <2609>. 5 They were all <3605> ashamed <0954> of a people <5971> [that] could not profit <3276> them, nor <3808> be an help <5828> nor <3808> profit <3276>, but a shame <1322>, and also <1571> a reproach <2781>. 6 The burden <4853> of the beasts <0929> of the south <5045>: into the land <0776> of trouble <6869> and anguish <6695>, from whence <1992> [come] the young <3833> and old <3918> lion <3918>, the viper <0660> and fiery <8314> flying <5774> serpent <8314>, they will carry <5375> their riches <2428> upon the shoulders <3802> of young asses <5895>, and their treasures <0214> upon the bunches <1707> of camels <1581>, to a people <5971> [that] shall not profit <3276> [them]. 7 For the Egyptians <4714> shall help <5826> in vain <1892>, and to no <7385> purpose <7385>: therefore <3651> have I cried <7121> concerning this <2063>, Their strength <7293> [is] to sit <7674> still <7673>. 8. Now <6258> go <0935>, write <3789> it before <0854> them in a table <3871>, and note <2710> it in a book <5612>, that it may be for the time <3117> to come <0314> for ever <5703> and ever <5769>: 9 That this <1931> [is] a rebellious <4805> people <5971>, lying <3586> children <1121>, children <1121> [that] will <14> not hear <8085> the law <8451> of the LORD <3068>: 10 Which <0834> say <0559> to the seers <7200>, See <7200> not; and to the prophets <2374>, Prophesy <2372> not unto us right <5229> things, speak <1696> unto us smooth <2513> things, prophesy <2372> deceits <4123>: 11 Get you out of the way <1870>, turn <5186> aside <5186> out of the path <0734>, cause the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478> to cease <7673> from before <6440> us. 12 Wherefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, Because <3282> ye despise <3988> this <2088> word <1697>, and trust <0982> in oppression <6233> and perverseness <3868>, and stay <8172> thereon <5921>: 13 Therefore <3651> this <2088> iniquity <5771> shall be to you as a breach <6556> ready to fall <5307>, swelling <1158> out in a high <7682> wall <2346>, whose <0834> breaking <7667> cometh <0935> suddenly <6597> at an instant <6621>. 14 And he shall break <7665> it as the breaking <7667> of the potters <3335>' vessel <5035> that is broken <3807> in pieces; he shall not spare <2550>: so that there shall not be found <4672> in the bursting <4386> of it a sherd <2789> to take <2846> fire <0784> from the hearth <3344>, or to take <2834> water <4325> [withal] out of the pit <1360>. 15 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>; In returning <7729> and rest <5183> shall ye be saved <3467>; in quietness <8252> and in confidence <0985> shall be your strength <1369>: and ye would <14> not. 16 But ye said <0559>, No <3808>; for we will flee <5127> upon horses <5483>; therefore shall ye flee <5127>: and, We will ride <7392> upon the swift <7031>; therefore shall they that pursue <7291> you be swift <7043>. 17 One <0259> thousand <0505> [shall flee] at <6440> the rebuke <1606> of one <0259>; at <6440> the rebuke <1606> of five <2568> shall ye flee <5127>: till ye be left <3498> as a beacon <8650> upon the top <7218> of a mountain <2022>, and as an ensign <5251> on <5921> an hill <1389>. 18. And therefore <3651> will the LORD <3068> wait <2442>, that he may be gracious <2603> unto you, and therefore <3651> will he be exalted <7311>, that he may have mercy <7355> upon you: for the LORD <3068> [is] a God <0430> of judgment <4941>: blessed <0835> [are] all <3605> they that wait <2442> for him. 19 For the people <5971> shall dwell <3427> in Zion <6726> at Jerusalem <3389>: thou shalt weep <1058> no <3808> more <1058>: he will be very gracious <2603> unto thee at the voice <6963> of thy cry <2201>; when he shall hear <8085> it, he will answer <6030> thee. 20 And [though] the Lord <0136> give <5414> you the bread <3899> of adversity <6862>, and the water <4325> of affliction <3905>, yet shall not thy teachers <3384> be removed <3670> into a corner <3671> any more <5750>, but thine eyes <5869> shall see <7200> thy teachers <3384>: 21 And thine ears <0241> shall hear <8085> a word <1697> behind <0310> thee, saying <0559>, This <2088> [is] the way <1870>, walk <3212> ye in it, when <3588> ye turn to the right <0541> hand <3027>, and when <3588> ye turn to the left <8041>. 22 Ye shall defile <2930> also the covering <6826> of thy graven <6456> images of silver <3701>, and the ornament <0642> of thy molten <4541> images of gold <2091>: thou shalt cast <2219> them away <2219> as a menstruous <1739> cloth; thou shalt say <0559> unto it, Get <3318> thee hence <3318>. 23 Then shall he give <5414> the rain <4306> of thy seed <2233>, that thou shalt sow <2232> the ground <0127> withal; and bread <3899> of the increase <8393> of the earth <0127>, and it shall be fat <1879> and plenteous <8082>: in that day <3117> shall thy cattle <4735> feed <7462> in large <7337> pastures <3733>. 24 The oxen <0504> likewise and the young asses <5895> that ear <5647> the ground <0127> shall eat <0398> clean <2548> provender <1098>, which <0834> hath been winnowed <2219> with the shovel <7371> and with the fan <4214>. 25 And there shall be upon every <3605> high <1364> mountain <2022>, and upon every <3605> high <4791> hill <1389>, rivers <6388> [and] streams <2988> of waters <4325> in the day <3117> of the great <7227> slaughter <2027>, when the towers <4026> fall <5307>. 26 Moreover the light <0216> of the moon <3842> shall be as the light <0216> of the sun <2535>, and the light <0216> of the sun <8121> shall be sevenfold <7659>, as the light <0216> of seven <7651> days <3117>, in the day <3117> that the LORD <3068> bindeth <2280> up the breach <7667> of his people <5971>, and healeth <7495> the stroke <4273> of their wound <4347>. 27. Behold <2009>, the name <8034> of the LORD <3068> cometh <0935> from far <4801>, burning <1197> [with] his anger <0639>, and the burden <4858> [thereof is] heavy <3514>: his lips <8193> are full <4390> of indignation <2195>, and his tongue <3956> as a devouring <0398> fire <0784>: 28 And his breath <7307>, as an overflowing <7857> stream <5158>, shall reach <5060> to the midst <2673> of the neck <6677>, to sift <5130> the nations <1471> with the sieve <5299> of vanity <7723>: and [there shall be] a bridle <7448> in the jaws <3895> of the people <5971>, causing [them] to err <8582>. 29 Ye shall have <1961> a song <7892>, as in the night <3915> [when] a holy <6942> solemnity <2282> is kept <6942>; and gladness <8057> of heart <3824>, as when one goeth <1980> with a pipe <2485> to come <0935> into the mountain <2022> of the LORD <3068>, to the mighty <6697> One of Israel <3478>. 30 And the LORD <3068> shall cause his glorious <1935> voice <6963> to be heard <8085>, and shall shew <7200> the lighting <5183> down <5183> of his arm <2220>, with the indignation <2197> of [his] anger <0639>, and [with] the flame <3851> of a devouring <0398> fire <0784>, [with] scattering <5311>, and tempest <2230>, and hailstones. 31 For through the voice <6963> of the LORD <3068> shall the Assyrian <0804> be beaten <2865> down, [which] smote <5221> with a rod <7626>. 32 And [in] every <3605> place where the grounded <4145> staff <4294> shall pass <4569>, which <0834> the LORD <3068> shall lay <5117> upon him, [it] shall be with tabrets <8596> and harps <3658>: and in battles <4421> of shaking <8573> will he fight <3898> with it. 33 For Tophet <8613> [is] ordained <6186> of old <0865>; yea <1571>, for the king <4428> it is prepared <3559>; he hath made [it] deep <6009> [and] large <7337>: the pile <4071> thereof [is] fire <0784> and much <7235> wood <6086>; the breath <5397> of the LORD <3068>, like a stream <5158> of brimstone <1614>, doth kindle <1197> it. Isaiah 31 1. Woe <1945> to them that go <3381> down <3381> to Egypt <4714> for help <5833>; and stay <8172> on <5921> horses <5483>, and trust <0982> in chariots <7393>, because <3588> [they are] many <7227>; and in horsemen <6571>, because <3588> they are very <3966> strong <6105>; but they look <8159> not unto the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, neither <3808> seek <1875> the LORD <3068>! 2 Yet he also <1571> [is] wise <2450>, and will bring <0935> evil <7451>, and will not call <5493> back <5493> his words <1697>: but will arise <6965> against <5921> the house <1004> of the evildoers <7489>, and against <5921> the help <5833> of them that work <6213> iniquity <0205>. 3 Now the Egyptians <4714> [are] men <0120>, and not God <0410>; and their horses <5483> flesh <1320>, and not spirit <7307>. When the LORD <3068> shall stretch <5186> out his hand <3027>, both <8147> he that helpeth <5826> shall fall <3782>, and he that is holpen <5826> shall fall <5307> down, and they all <3605> shall fail <3615> together <3162>. 4 For thus <3541> hath the LORD <3068> spoken <0559> unto me, Like as the lion <0738> and the young <3715> lion <3715> roaring <1897> on <5921> his prey <2964>, when <0834> a multitude <4393> of shepherds <7462> is called <7121> forth against <5921> him, [he] will not be afraid <2865> of their voice <6963>, nor <3808> abase <6031> himself for the noise <1995> of them: so <3651> shall the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> come <3381> down <3381> to fight <6633> for mount <2022> Zion <6726>, and for the hill <1389> thereof. 5 As birds <6833> flying <5774>, so will the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> defend <1598> Jerusalem <3389>; defending <1598> also he will deliver <5337> [it; and] passing <5674> over he will preserve <4422> it. 6. Turn <7725> ye unto [him from] whom <0834> the children <1121> of Israel <3478> have deeply <6009> revolted <5627>. 7 For in that day <3117> every man <0376> shall cast <3988> away <3988> his idols <0457> of silver <3701>, and his idols <0457> of gold <2091>, which <0834> your own hands <3027> have made <6213> unto you [for] a sin <2399>. 8 Then shall the Assyrian <0804> fall <5307> with the sword <2719>, not of a mighty <0376> man <0376>; and the sword <2719>, not of a mean <0120> man <0120>, shall devour <0398> him: but he shall flee <5127> from the sword <2719>, and his young <0970> men shall be discomfited <4522>. 9 And he shall pass <5674> over <5674> to his strong <5553> hold <5553> for fear <4032>, and his princes <8269> shall be afraid <2865> of the ensign <5251>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, whose <0834> fire <0217> [is] in Zion <6726>, and his furnace <8574> in Jerusalem <3389>. Isaiah 32 1. Behold <2005>, a king <4428> shall reign <4427> in righteousness <6664>, and princes <8269> shall rule <8323> in judgment <4941>. 2 And a man <0376> shall be as an hiding <4224> place from the wind <7307>, and a covert <5643> from the tempest <2230>; as rivers <6388> of water <4325> in a dry <6724> place, as the shadow <6738> of a great <3515> rock <5553> in a weary <5889> land <0776>. 3 And the eyes <5869> of them that see <7200> shall not be dim <8159>, and the ears <0241> of them that hear <8085> shall hearken <7181>. 4 The heart <3824> also of the rash <4116> shall understand <0995> knowledge <1847>, and the tongue <3956> of the stammerers <5926> shall be ready <4116> to speak <1696> plainly <6703>. 5 The vile <5036> person shall be no <3808> more <5750> called <7121> liberal <5081>, nor <3808> the churl <3596> said <0559> [to be] bountiful <7771>. 6 For the vile <5036> person will speak <1696> villany <5039>, and his heart <3820> will work <6213> iniquity <0205>, to practise <6213> hypocrisy <2612>, and to utter <1696> error <8432> against <0413> the LORD <3068>, to make empty <7324> the soul <5315> of the hungry <7456>, and he will cause the drink <4945> of the thirsty <6771> to fail <2637>. 7 The instruments <3627> also of the churl <3596> [are] evil <7451>: he deviseth <3289> wicked <2154> devices <2154> to destroy <2254> the poor with lying <8267> words <0561>, even when the needy <34> speaketh <1696> right <4941>. 8 But the liberal <5081> deviseth <3289> liberal <5081> things; and by liberal <5081> things shall he stand <6965>. 9. Rise <6965> up, ye women <0802> that are at ease <7600>; hear <8085> my voice <6963>, ye careless <0982> daughters <1121>; give ear <0238> unto my speech <0565>. 10 Many days <3117> and years <8141> shall ye be troubled <7264>, ye careless <0982> women: for the vintage <1210> shall fail <3615>, the gathering <0625> shall not come <0935>. 11 Tremble <2729>, ye women that are at ease <7600>; be troubled <7264>, ye careless <0982> ones: strip <6584> you, and make you bare <6209>, and gird <2290> [sackcloth] upon [your] loins <2504>. 12 They shall lament <5594> for the teats <7699>, for the pleasant <2531> fields <7704>, for the fruitful <6509> vine <1612>. 13 Upon the land <0127> of my people <5971> shall come <5927> up thorns <6975> [and] briers <8068>; yea <3588>, upon all <3605> the houses <1004> of joy <4885> [in] the joyous <5947> city <7151>: 14 Because <3588> the palaces <0759> shall be forsaken <5203>; the multitude <1995> of the city <5892> shall be left <5800>; the forts <6076> and towers <0975> shall be for dens <4631> for ever <5769>, a joy <4885> of wild <6501> asses <6501>, a pasture <4829> of flocks <5739>; 15 Until <5704> the spirit <7307> be poured <6168> upon us from on high <4791>, and the wilderness <4057> be a fruitful <3759> field, and the fruitful <3759> field be counted <2803> for a forest <3293>. 16 Then judgment <4941> shall dwell <7931> in the wilderness <4057>, and righteousness <6666> remain <3427> in the fruitful <3759> field. 17 And the work <4639> of righteousness <6666> shall be peace <7965>; and the effect <5656> of righteousness <6666> quietness <8252> and assurance <0983> for ever <5769>. 18 And my people <5971> shall dwell <3427> in a peaceable <7965> habitation <5116>, and in sure <4009> dwellings <4908>, and in quiet <7600> resting <4496> places; 19 When it shall hail <1258>, coming <3381> down <3381> on the forest <3293>; and the city <5892> shall be low <8213> in a low <8219> place. 20 Blessed <0835> [are] ye that sow <2232> beside <5921> all <3605> waters <4325>, that send <7971> forth [thither] the feet <7272> of the ox <7794> and the ass <2543>. Isaiah 33 1. Woe <1945> to thee that spoilest <7703>, and thou [wast] not spoiled <7703>; and dealest treacherously <0898>, and they dealt not treacherously <0898> with thee! when thou shalt cease <8552> to spoil <7703>, thou shalt be spoiled <7703>; [and] when thou shalt make an end <5239> to deal treacherously <0898>, they shall deal treacherously <0898> with thee. 2 O LORD <3068>, be gracious <2603> unto us; we have waited <6960> for thee: be thou their arm <2220> every morning <1242>, our salvation <3444> also <0637> in the time <6256> of trouble <6869>. 3 At the noise <6963> of the tumult <1995> the people <5971> fled <5074>; at the lifting <7427> up of thyself the nations <1471> were scattered <5310>. 4 And your spoil <7998> shall be gathered <0622> [like] the gathering <0625> of the caterpiller <2625>: as the running <4944> to and fro of locusts <1357> shall he run <8264> upon them. 5 The LORD <3068> is exalted <7682>; for he dwelleth <7931> on high <4791>: he hath filled <4390> Zion <6726> with judgment <4941> and righteousness <6666>. 6 And wisdom <2451> and knowledge <1847> shall be the stability <0530> of thy times <6256>, [and] strength <2633> of salvation <3444>: the fear <3374> of the LORD <3068> [is] his treasure <0214>. 7 Behold <2005>, their valiant <0691> ones shall cry <6817> without <2351>: the ambassadors <4397> of peace <7965> shall weep <1058> bitterly <4751>. 8 The highways <4546> lie waste <8074>, the wayfaring man ceaseth <7673>: he hath broken <6565> the covenant <1285>, he hath despised <3988> the cities <5892>, he regardeth <2803> no <3808> man <0582>. 9 The earth <0776> mourneth <56> [and] languisheth <0535>: Lebanon <3844> is ashamed <2659> [and] hewn <7060> down: Sharon <8289> is like a wilderness <6160>; and Bashan <1316> and Carmel <3760> shake <5287> off [their fruits]. 10 Now <6258> will I rise <6965>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; now <6258> will I be exalted <7311>; now <6258> will I lift <5375> up myself. 11 Ye shall conceive <2029> chaff <2842>, ye shall bring <3205> forth <3205> stubble <7179>: your breath <7307>, [as] fire <0784>, shall devour <0398> you. 12 And the people <5971> shall be [as] the burnings <4955> of lime <7875>: [as] thorns <6975> cut <3683> up shall they be burned <3341> in the fire <0784>. 13. Hear <8085>, ye [that are] far <7350> off, what <0834> I have done <6213>; and, ye [that are] near <7138>, acknowledge <3045> my might <1369>. 14 The sinners <2400> in Zion <6726> are afraid <6342>; fearfulness <7461> hath surprised <0270> the hypocrites. Who <4310> among us shall dwell <1481> with the devouring <0398> fire <0784>? who <4310> among us shall dwell <1481> with everlasting <5769> burnings <4168>? 15 He that walketh <1980> righteously <6666>, and speaketh <1696> uprightly <4339>; he that despiseth <3988> the gain <1214> of oppressions <4642>, that shaketh <5287> his hands <3709> from holding <8551> of bribes <7810>, that stoppeth <0331> his ears <0241> from hearing <8085> of blood <1818>, and shutteth <6105> his eyes <5869> from seeing <7200> evil <7451>; 16 He shall dwell <7931> on high <4791>: his place of defence <4869> [shall be] the munitions <4679> of rocks <5553>: bread <3899> shall be given <5414> him; his waters <4325> [shall be] sure <0539>. 17 Thine eyes <5869> shall see <2372> the king <4428> in his beauty <3308>: they shall behold <7200> the land <0776> that is very <4801> far <4801> off. 18 Thine heart <3820> shall meditate <1897> terror <0367>. Where <0346> [is] the scribe <5608>? where <0346> [is] the receiver <8254>? where <0346> [is] he that counted <5608> the towers <4026>? 19 Thou shalt not see <7200> a fierce <3267> people <5971>, a people <5971> of a deeper <6012> speech <8193> than thou canst perceive <8085>; of a stammering <3932> tongue <3956>, [that thou canst] not understand <0998>. 20 Look <2372> upon Zion <6726>, the city <7151> of our solemnities <4150>: thine eyes <5869> shall see <7200> Jerusalem <3389> a quiet <7600> habitation <5116>, a tabernacle <0168> [that] shall not be taken <6813> down; not one of the stakes <3489> thereof shall ever <5331> be removed <5265>, neither <1077> shall any <3605> of the cords <2256> thereof be broken <5423>. 21 But there <8033> the glorious <0117> LORD <3068> [will be] unto us a place <4725> of broad rivers <5103> [and] streams <2975>; wherein shall go <3212> no <1077> galley <0590> with oars <7885>, neither <3808> shall gallant <0117> ship <6716> pass <5674> thereby. 22 For the LORD <3068> [is] our judge <8199>, the LORD <3068> [is] our lawgiver <2710>, the LORD <3068> [is] our king <4428>; he will save <3467> us. 23 Thy tacklings <2256> are loosed <5203>; they could not well <3651> strengthen <2388> their mast <8650>, they could not spread <6566> the sail <5251>: then <0227> is the prey <5706> of a great <4766> spoil <7998> divided <2505>; the lame <6455> take <0962> the prey <0957>. 24 And the inhabitant <7934> shall not say <0559>, I am sick <2470>: the people <5971> that dwell <3427> therein [shall be] forgiven <5375> [their] iniquity <5771>. Isaiah 34 1. Come <7126> near <7126>, ye nations <1471>, to hear <8085>; and hearken <7181>, ye people <3816>: let the earth <0776> hear <8085>, and all <4393> that is therein <4393>; the world <8398>, and all <3605> things that come <6631> forth <6631> of it. 2 For the indignation <7110> of the LORD <3068> [is] upon all <3605> nations <1471>, and [his] fury <2534> upon all <3605> their armies <6635>: he hath utterly destroyed <2763> them, he hath delivered <5414> them to the slaughter <2875>. 3 Their slain <2491> also shall be cast <7993> out, and their stink <0889> shall come <5927> up out of their carcases <6297>, and the mountains <2022> shall be melted <4549> with their blood <1818>. 4 And all <3605> the host <6635> of heaven <8064> shall be dissolved <4743>, and the heavens <8064> shall be rolled <1556> together as a scroll <5612>: and all <3605> their host <6635> shall fall <5034> down, as the leaf <5929> falleth <5034> off from the vine <1612>, and as a falling <5034> [fig <8384>] from the fig <8384> tree. 5 For my sword <2719> shall be bathed <7301> in heaven <8064>: behold <2009>, it shall come <3381> down <3381> upon Idumea <0123>, and upon the people <5971> of my curse <2764>, to judgment <4941>. 6 The sword <2719> of the LORD <3068> is filled <4390> with blood <1818>, it is made fat <1878> with fatness <2459>, [and] with the blood <1818> of lambs <3733> and goats <6260>, with the fat <2459> of the kidneys <3629> of rams <0352>: for the LORD <3068> hath a sacrifice <2077> in Bozrah <1224>, and a great <1419> slaughter <2875> in the land <0776> of Idumea <0123>. 7 And the unicorns <7214> shall come <3381> down <3381> with them, and the bullocks <6499> with the bulls <47>; and their land <0776> shall be soaked <7301> with blood <1818>, and their dust <6083> made fat <1878> with fatness <2459>. 8 For [it is] the day <3117> of the LORD'S <3068> vengeance <5359>, [and] the year <8141> of recompences <7966> for the controversy <7379> of Zion <6726>. 9. And the streams <5158> thereof shall be turned <2015> into pitch <2203>, and the dust <6083> thereof into brimstone <1614>, and the land <0776> thereof shall become <1961> burning <1197> pitch <2203>. 10 It shall not be quenched <3518> night <3915> nor day <3119>; the smoke <6227> thereof shall go <5927> up for ever <5769>: from generation <1755> to generation <1755> it shall lie waste <2717>; none <0369> shall pass <5674> through it for ever <5331> and ever <5769>. 11 But the cormorant <6893> and the bittern <7090> shall possess <3423> it; the owl <3244> also and the raven <6158> shall dwell <7931> in it: and he shall stretch <5186> out upon it the line <6957> of confusion <5414>, and the stones <68> of emptiness <0922>. 12 They shall call <7121> the nobles <2715> thereof to the kingdom <4410>, but none <0369> [shall be] there <8033>, and all <3605> her princes <8269> shall be nothing <0657>. 13 And thorns <5518> shall come <5927> up in her palaces <0759>, nettles <7057> and brambles <2336> in the fortresses <4013> thereof: and it shall be an habitation <5116> of dragons <8577>, [and] a court <2691> for owls. 14 The wild <6728> beasts <6728> of the desert <6728> shall also meet <6298> with the wild <0338> beasts <0338> of the island <0338>, and the satyr <8163> shall cry <7121> to his fellow <7453>; the screech <3917> owl <3917> also <0389> shall rest <7280> there <8033>, and find <4672> for herself a place of rest <4494>. 15 There <8033> shall the great <7091> owl <7091> make her nest <7077>, and lay <4422>, and hatch <1234>, and gather <1716> under her shadow <6738>: there <8033> shall the vultures <1772> also <0389> be gathered <6908>, every <0802> one with her mate <7468>. 16 Seek <1875> ye out of the book <5612> of the LORD <3068>, and read <7121>: no <3808> one <0259> of these <2007> shall fail <5737>, none shall want <6485> her mate <7468>: for my mouth <6310> it hath commanded <6680>, and his spirit <7307> it hath gathered <6908> them. 17 And he hath cast <5307> the lot <1486> for them, and his hand <3027> hath divided <2505> it unto them by line <6957>: they shall possess <3423> it for ever <5769>, from generation <1755> to generation <1755> shall they dwell <7931> therein. Isaiah 35 1. The wilderness <4057> and the solitary <6723> place shall be glad <7996> for them; and the desert <6160> shall rejoice <1523>, and blossom <6524> as the rose <2261>. 2 It shall blossom <6524> abundantly <6524>, and rejoice <1523> even <0637> with joy <1525> and singing <7442>: the glory <3519> of Lebanon <3844> shall be given <5414> unto it, the excellency <1926> of Carmel <3760> and Sharon <8289>, they shall see <7200> the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068>, [and] the excellency <1926> of our God <0430>. 3 Strengthen <2388> ye the weak <7504> hands <3027>, and confirm <0553> the feeble <3782> knees <1290>. 4 Say <0559> to them [that are] of a fearful <4116> heart <3820>, Be strong <2388>, fear <3372> not: behold <2009>, your God <0430> will come <0935> [with] vengeance <5359>, [even] God <0430> [with] a recompence <1576>; he will come <0935> and save <3467> you. 5. Then <0227> the eyes <5869> of the blind <5787> shall be opened <6491>, and the ears <0241> of the deaf <2795> shall be unstopped <6605>. 6 Then <0227> shall the lame <6455> [man] leap <1801> as an hart <0354>, and the tongue <3956> of the dumb <0483> sing <7442>: for in the wilderness <4057> shall waters <4325> break <1234> out, and streams <5158> in the desert <6160>. 7 And the parched <8273> ground shall become <1961> a pool <98>, and the thirsty <6774> land springs <4002> of water <4325>: in the habitation <5116> of dragons <8577>, where each lay <7258>, [shall be] grass <2682> with reeds <7070> and rushes <1573>. 8 And an highway <4547> shall be there <8033>, and a way <1870>, and it shall be called <7121> The way <1870> of holiness <6944>; the unclean <2931> shall not pass <5674> over <5674> it; but it [shall be] for those: the wayfaring men <0582>, though fools <0191>, shall not err <8582> [therein]. 9 No <3808> lion <0738> shall be there <8033>, nor <1077> [any] ravenous <6530> beast <2416> shall go <5927> up thereon, it shall not be found <4672> there <8033>; but the redeemed <1350> shall walk <1980> [there]: 10 And the ransomed <6299> of the LORD <3068> shall return <7725>, and come <0935> to Zion <6726> with songs <7440> and everlasting <5769> joy <8057> upon their heads <7218>: they shall obtain <5381> joy <8057> and gladness <8057>, and sorrow <3015> and sighing <0585> shall flee <5127> away. Isaiah 36 1. Now it came <1961> to pass in the fourteenth year <8141> of king <4428> Hezekiah <2396>, [that] Sennacherib <5576> king <4428> of Assyria <0804> came <5927> up against <5921> all <3605> the defenced <1219> cities <5892> of Judah <3063>, and took <8610> them. 2 And the king <4428> of Assyria <0804> sent <7971> Rabshakeh <7262> from Lachish <3923> to Jerusalem <3389> unto king <4428> Hezekiah <2396> with a great <3515> army <2426>. And he stood <5975> by the conduit <8585> of the upper <5945> pool <1295> in the highway <4546> of the fuller's <3526> field <7704>. 3 Then came <3318> forth <3318> unto him Eliakim <0471>, Hilkiah's <2518> son <1121>, which <0834> was over <5921> the house <1004>, and Shebna <7644> the scribe <5608>, and Joah <3098>, Asaph's <0623> son <1121>, the recorder <2142>. 4 And Rabshakeh <7262> said <0559> unto them, Say <0559> ye now <4994> to Hezekiah <2396>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the great <1419> king <4428>, the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, What confidence <0986> [is] this <2088> wherein <0834> thou trustest <0982>? 5 I say <0559>, [sayest thou], (but [they are but] vain <8193> words <1697>) [I have] counsel <6098> and strength <1369> for war <4421>: now <6258> on <5921> whom <4310> dost thou trust <0982>, that thou rebellest <4775> against me? 6 Lo <2009>, thou trustest <0982> in the staff <4938> of this <2088> broken <7533> reed <7070>, on <5921> Egypt <4714>; whereon if a man <0376> lean <5564>, it will go <0935> into his hand <3709>, and pierce <5344> it: so <3651> [is] Pharaoh <6547> king <4428> of Egypt <4714> to all <3605> that trust <0982> in him. 7 But if thou say <0559> to me, We trust <0982> in the LORD <3068> our God <0430>: [is it] not he, whose high <1111> places and whose altars <4196> Hezekiah <2396> hath taken <5493> away <5493>, and said <0559> to Judah <3063> and to Jerusalem <3389>, Ye shall worship <7812> before <6440> this <2088> altar <4196>? 8 Now <6258> therefore give pledges <6148>, I pray <4994> thee, to my master <0113> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, and I will give <5414> thee two thousand <0505> horses <5483>, if <0518> thou be able <3201> on thy part to set <5414> riders <7392> upon them. 9 How <0349> then wilt thou turn <7725> away the face <6440> of one <0259> captain <6346> of the least <6996> of my master's <0113> servants <5650>, and put thy trust <0982> on <5921> Egypt <4714> for chariots <7393> and for horsemen <6571>? 10 And am I now <6258> come <5927> up without <1107> the LORD <3068> against <5921> this <2063> land <0776> to destroy <7843> it? the LORD <3068> said <0559> unto me, Go <5927> up against <0413> this <2063> land <0776>, and destroy <7843> it. 11. Then said <0559> Eliakim <0471> and Shebna <7644> and Joah <3098> unto Rabshakeh <7262>, Speak <1696>, I pray <4994> thee, unto thy servants <5650> in the Syrian <0762> language; for we understand <8085> [it]: and speak <1696> not to us in the Jews <3064>' language, in the ears <0241> of the people <5971> that [are] on <5921> the wall <2346>. 12 But Rabshakeh <7262> said <0559>, Hath my master <0113> sent <7971> me to thy master <0113> and to thee to speak <1696> these <0428> words <1697>? [hath he] not [sent me] to the men <0582> that sit <3427> upon the wall <2346>, that they may eat <0398> their own dung, and drink <8354> their own piss <7890> with you? 13 Then Rabshakeh <7262> stood <5975>, and cried <7121> with a loud <1419> voice <6963> in the Jews <3064>' language, and said <0559>, Hear <8085> ye the words <1697> of the great <1419> king <4428>, the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>. 14 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the king <4428>, Let not Hezekiah <2396> deceive <5377> you: for he shall not be able <3201> to deliver <5337> you. 15 Neither <0408> let Hezekiah <2396> make you trust <0982> in the LORD <3068>, saying <0559>, The LORD <3068> will surely deliver <5337> us: this <2063> city <5892> shall not be delivered <5414> into the hand <3027> of the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>. 16 Hearken <8085> not to Hezekiah <2396>: for thus <3541> saith <0559> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, Make <6213> [an agreement] with me [by] a present <1293>, and come <3318> out to me: and eat <0398> ye every <0376> one <0376> of his vine <1612>, and every <0376> one <0376> of his fig <8384> tree, and drink <8354> ye every <0376> one <0376> the waters <4325> of his own cistern <0953>; 17 Until <5704> I come <0935> and take <3947> you away to a land <0776> like your own land <0776>, a land <0776> of corn <1715> and wine <8492>, a land <0776> of bread <3899> and vineyards <3754>. 18 [Beware] lest <6435> Hezekiah <2396> persuade <5496> you, saying <0559>, The LORD <3068> will deliver <5337> us. Hath any <0376> of the gods <0430> of the nations <1471> delivered <5337> his land <0776> out of the hand <3027> of the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>? 19 Where <0346> [are] the gods <0430> of Hamath <2574> and Arphad <0774>? where <0346> [are] the gods <0430> of Sepharvaim <5617>? and have they delivered <5337> Samaria <8111> out of my hand <3027>? 20 Who <4310> [are they] among all <3605> the gods <0430> of these <0428> lands <0776>, that have delivered <5337> their land <0776> out of my hand <3027>, that the LORD <3068> should deliver <5337> Jerusalem <3389> out of my hand <3027>? 21 But they held <2790> their peace <2790>, and answered <6030> him not a word <1697>: for the king's <4428> commandment <4687> was, saying <0559>, Answer <6030> him not. 22 Then came <0935> Eliakim <0471>, the son <1121> of Hilkiah <2518>, that [was] over <5921> the household <1004>, and Shebna <7644> the scribe <5608>, and Joah <3098>, the son <1121> of Asaph <0623>, the recorder <2142>, to Hezekiah <2396> with [their] clothes <0899> rent <7167>, and told <5046> him the words <1697> of Rabshakeh <7262>. Isaiah 37 1. And it came <1961> to pass, when king <4428> Hezekiah <2396> heard <8085> [it], that he rent <7167> his clothes <0899>, and covered <3680> himself with sackcloth <8242>, and went <0935> into the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>. 2 And he sent <7971> Eliakim <0471>, who <0834> [was] over <5921> the household <1004>, and Shebna <7644> the scribe <5608>, and the elders <2205> of the priests <3548> covered <3680> with sackcloth <8242>, unto Isaiah <3470> the prophet <5030> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531>. 3 And they said <0559> unto him, Thus <3541> saith <0559> Hezekiah <2396>, This <2088> day <3117> [is] a day <3117> of trouble <6869>, and of rebuke <8433>, and of blasphemy <5007>: for the children <1121> are come <0935> to the birth <4866>, and [there is] not strength <3581> to bring <3205> forth <3205>. 4 It may be the LORD <3068> thy God <0430> will hear <8085> the words <1697> of Rabshakeh <7262>, whom <0834> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804> his master <0113> hath sent <7971> to reproach <2778> the living <2416> God <0430>, and will reprove <3198> the words <1697> which <0834> the LORD <3068> thy God <0430> hath heard <8085>: wherefore lift <5375> up [thy] prayer <8605> for the remnant <7611> that is left <4672>. 5 So the servants <5650> of king <4428> Hezekiah <2396> came <0935> to Isaiah <3470>. 6 And Isaiah <3470> said <0559> unto them, Thus <3541> shall ye say <0559> unto your master <0113>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Be not afraid <3372> of the words <1697> that thou hast heard <8085>, wherewith <0834> the servants <5288> of the king <4428> of Assyria <0804> have blasphemed <1442> me. 7 Behold <2005>, I will send <7971> a blast <7307> upon him, and he shall hear <8085> a rumour <8052>, and return <7725> to his own land <0776>; and I will cause him to fall <5307> by the sword <2719> in his own land <0776>. 8. So Rabshakeh <7262> returned <7725>, and found <4672> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804> warring <3898> against <5921> Libnah <3841>: for he had heard <8085> that he was departed <5265> from Lachish <3923>. 9 And he heard <8085> say <0559> concerning <5921> Tirhakah <8640> king <4428> of Ethiopia <3568>, He is come <3318> forth <3318> to make war <3898> with thee. And when he heard <8085> [it], he sent <7971> messengers <4397> to Hezekiah <2396>, saying <0559>, 10 Thus <3541> shall ye speak <0559> to Hezekiah <2396> king <4428> of Judah <3063>, saying <0559>, Let not thy God <0430>, in whom <0834> thou trustest <0982>, deceive <5377> thee, saying <0559>, Jerusalem <3389> shall not be given <5414> into the hand <3027> of the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>. 11 Behold <2009>, thou hast heard <8085> what <0834> the kings <4428> of Assyria <0804> have done <6213> to all <3605> lands <0776> by destroying <2763> them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered <5337>? 12 Have the gods <0430> of the nations <1471> delivered <5337> them which <0834> my fathers <1> have destroyed <7843>, [as] Gozan <1470>, and Haran <2771>, and Rezeph <7530>, and the children <1121> of Eden <5731> which <0834> [were] in Telassar <8515>? 13 Where <0346> [is] the king <4428> of Hamath <2574>, and the king <4428> of Arphad <0774>, and the king <4428> of the city <5892> of Sepharvaim <5617>, Hena <2012>, and Ivah <5755>? 14 And Hezekiah <2396> received <3947> the letter <5612> from the hand <3027> of the messengers <4397>, and read <7121> it: and Hezekiah <2396> went <5927> up unto the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>, and spread <6566> it before <6440> the LORD <3068>. 15 And Hezekiah <2396> prayed <6419> unto the LORD <3068>, saying <0559>, 16 O LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>, God <0430> of Israel <3478>, that dwellest <3427> [between] the cherubims <3742>, thou [art] the God <0430>, [even] thou alone <0905>, of all <3605> the kingdoms <4467> of the earth <0776>: thou hast made <6213> heaven <8064> and earth <0776>. 17 Incline <5186> thine ear <0241>, O LORD <3068>, and hear <8085>; open <6491> thine eyes <5869>, O LORD <3068>, and see <7200>: and hear <8085> all <3605> the words <1697> of Sennacherib <5576>, which <0834> hath sent <7971> to reproach <2778> the living <2416> God <0430>. 18 Of a truth <0551>, LORD <3068>, the kings <4428> of Assyria <0804> have laid waste <2717> all <3605> the nations <0776>, and their countries <0776>, 19 And have cast <5414> their gods <0430> into the fire <0784>: for they [were] no <3808> gods <0430>, but the work <4639> of men's <0120> hands <3027>, wood <6086> and stone <68>: therefore they have destroyed <6> them. 20 Now <6258> therefore, O LORD <3068> our God <0430>, save <3467> us from his hand <3027>, that all <3605> the kingdoms <4467> of the earth <0776> may know <3045> that thou [art] the LORD <3068>, [even] thou only <0905>. 21. Then Isaiah <3470> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531> sent <7971> unto Hezekiah <2396>, saying <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> God <0430> of Israel <3478>, Whereas <0834> thou hast prayed <6419> to me against <0413> Sennacherib <5576> king <4428> of Assyria <0804>: 22 This <2088> [is] the word <1697> which <0834> the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> concerning <5921> him; The virgin <1330>, the daughter <1323> of Zion <6726>, hath despised <0959> thee, [and] laughed <3932> thee to scorn; the daughter <1323> of Jerusalem <3389> hath shaken <5128> her head <7218> at thee. 23 Whom hast thou reproached <2778> and blasphemed <1442>? and against <5921> whom <4310> hast thou exalted <7311> [thy] voice <6963>, and lifted <5375> up thine eyes <5869> on high <4796>? [even] against <0413> the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 24 By thy servants <5650> hast thou reproached <2778> the Lord <0136>, and hast said <0559>, By the multitude <7230> of my chariots <7393> am I come <5927> up to the height <4791> of the mountains <2022>, to the sides <3411> of Lebanon <3844>; and I will cut <3772> down the tall <6967> cedars <0730> thereof, [and] the choice <4005> fir <1265> trees thereof: and I will enter <0935> into the height <4791> of his border <7093>, [and] the forest <3293> of his Carmel <3760>. 25 I have digged <5365>, and drunk <8354> water <4325>; and with the sole <3709> of my feet <6471> have I dried <2717> up all <3605> the rivers <2975> of the besieged <4693> places. 26 Hast thou not heard <8085> long <5704> ago <7350>, [how] I have done <6213> it; [and] of ancient <6924> times <3117>, that I have formed <3335> it? now <6258> have I brought <0935> it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste <7582> defenced <1219> cities <5892> [into] ruinous <5327> heaps <1530>. 27 Therefore their inhabitants <3427> [were] of small <7116> power <3027>, they were dismayed <2865> and confounded <0954>: they were [as] the grass <6212> of the field <7704>, and [as] the green <3419> herb <1877>, [as] the grass <2682> on the housetops <1406>, and [as corn] blasted <7709> before <6440> it be grown <6965> up. 28 But I know <3045> thy abode <3427>, and thy going <3318> out, and thy coming <0935> in, and thy rage <7264> against <0413> me. 29 Because <3282> thy rage <7264> against <0413> me, and thy tumult <7600>, is come <5927> up into mine ears <0241>, therefore will I put <7760> my hook <2397> in thy nose <0639>, and my bridle <4964> in thy lips <8193>, and I will turn <7725> thee back <7725> by the way <1870> by which <0834> thou camest <0935>. 30 And this <2088> [shall be] a sign <0226> unto thee, Ye shall eat <0398> [this] year <8141> such as groweth <5599> of itself; and the second <8145> year <8141> that which springeth <7823> of the same: and in the third <7992> year <8141> sow <2232> ye, and reap <7114>, and plant <5193> vineyards <3754>, and eat <0398> the fruit <6529> thereof. 31 And the remnant <7604> that is escaped <6413> of the house <1004> of Judah <3063> shall again take root <8328> downward <4295>, and bear <6213> fruit <6529> upward <4605>: 32 For out of Jerusalem <3389> shall go <3318> forth <3318> a remnant <7611>, and they that escape <6413> out of mount <2022> Zion <6726>: the zeal <7068> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> shall do <6213> this <2063>. 33 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> concerning <0413> the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>, He shall not come <0935> into <0413> this <2063> city <5892>, nor <3808> shoot an arrow <2671> there <8033>, nor <3808> come <6923> before <6924> it with shields <4043>, nor <3808> cast <8210> a bank <5550> against <5921> it. 34 By the way <1870> that he came <0935>, by the same shall he return <7725>, and shall not come <0935> into <0413> this <2063> city <5892>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>. 35 For I will defend <1598> this <2063> city <5892> to save <3467> it for mine own sake, and for my servant <5650> David's <1732> sake <4616>. 36 Then the angel <4397> of the LORD <3068> went <3318> forth <3318>, and smote <5221> in the camp <4264> of the Assyrians <0804> a hundred <3967> and fourscore <8084> and five <2568> thousand <0505>: and when they arose <2224> early <7925> in the morning <1242>, behold <2009>, they [were] all <3605> dead <4191> corpses <6297>. 37 So Sennacherib <5576> king <4428> of Assyria <0804> departed <5265>, and went <3212> and returned <7725>, and dwelt <3427> at Nineveh <5210>. 38 And it came <1961> to pass, as he was worshipping <7812> in the house <1004> of Nisroch <5268> his god <0430>, that Adrammelech <0152> and Sharezer <8272> his sons <1121> smote <5221> him with the sword <2719>; and they escaped <4422> into the land <0776> of Armenia <0780>: and Esarhaddon <0634> his son <1121> reigned <4427> in his stead <8478>. Isaiah 38 1. In those <1992> days <3117> was Hezekiah <2396> sick <2470> unto death <4191>. And Isaiah <3470> the prophet <5030> the son <1121> of Amoz <0531> came <0935> unto him, and said <0559> unto him, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Set thine house <1004> in order <6680>: for thou shalt die <4191>, and not live <2421>. 2 Then Hezekiah <2396> turned <5437> his face <6440> toward <0413> the wall <7023>, and prayed <6419> unto the LORD <3068>, 3 And said <0559>, Remember <2142> now <4994>, O LORD <3068>, I beseech <0577> thee, how <0834> I have walked <1980> before <6440> thee in truth <0571> and with a perfect <8003> heart <3820>, and have done <6213> [that which is] good <2896> in thy sight <5869>. And Hezekiah <2396> wept <1058> sore <1419>. 4 Then came <1961> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> to Isaiah <3470>, saying <0559>, 5 Go <1980>, and say <0559> to Hezekiah <2396>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, the God <0430> of David <1732> thy father <1>, I have heard <8085> thy prayer <8605>, I have seen <7200> thy tears <1832>: behold <2005>, I will add <3254> unto thy days <3117> fifteen <6240> years <8141>. 6 And I will deliver <5337> thee and this <2063> city <5892> out of the hand <3709> of the king <4428> of Assyria <0804>: and I will defend <1598> this <2063> city <5892>. 7 And this <2088> [shall be] a sign <0226> unto thee from the LORD <3068>, that the LORD <3068> will do <6213> this <2088> thing <1697> that he hath spoken <1696>; 8 Behold <2005>, I will bring <7725> again <7725> the shadow <6738> of the degrees <4609>, which <0834> is gone <3381> down in the sun <8121> dial <4609> of Ahaz <0271>, ten <6235> degrees <4609> backward <0322>. So the sun <8121> returned <7725> ten <6235> degrees <4609>, by which degrees <4609> it was gone <3381> down. 9. The writing <4385> of Hezekiah <2396> king <4428> of Judah <3063>, when he had been sick <2470>, and was recovered <2421> of his sickness <2483>: 10 I said <0559> in the cutting <1824> off of my days <3117>, I shall go <3212> to the gates <8179> of the grave <7585>: I am deprived <6485> of the residue <3499> of my years <8141>. 11 I said <0559>, I shall not see <7200> the LORD <3050>, [even] the LORD <3050>, in the land <0776> of the living <2416>: I shall behold <7200> man <0120> no <3808> more with the inhabitants <3427> of the world <2309>. 12 Mine age <1755> is departed <5265>, and is removed <1556> from me as a shepherd's <7473> tent <0168>: I have cut <7088> off like a weaver <0707> my life <2416>: he will cut <1214> me off with pining <1803> sickness: from day <3117> [even] to night <3915> wilt thou make an end <7999> of me. 13 I reckoned <7737> till <5704> morning <1242>, [that], as a lion <0738>, so <3651> will he break <7665> all <3605> my bones <6106>: from day <3117> [even] to night <3915> wilt thou make an end <7999> of me. 14 Like a crane <5483> [or] a swallow <5693>, so <3651> did I chatter <6850>: I did mourn <1897> as a dove <3123>: mine eyes <5869> fail <1809> [with looking] upward <4791>: O LORD <3068>, I am oppressed <6234>; undertake <6148> for me. 15 What <4100> shall I say <1696>? he hath both spoken <0559> unto me, and himself <1931> hath done <6213> [it]: I shall go <1718> softly all <3605> my years <8141> in the bitterness <4751> of my soul <5315>. 16 O Lord <0136>, by these <5921> [things men] live <2421>, and in all <3605> these [things is] the life <2416> of my spirit <7307>: so wilt thou recover <2492> me, and make me to live <2421>. 17 Behold <2009>, for peace <7965> I had great bitterness <4843>: but thou hast in love <2836> to my soul <5315> [delivered it] from the pit <7845> of corruption <1097>: for thou hast cast <7993> all <3605> my sins <2399> behind <0310> thy back <1458>. 18 For the grave <7585> cannot <3808> praise <3034> thee, death <4194> can <3201> [not] celebrate <1984> thee: they that go <3381> down <3381> into the pit <0953> cannot <3808> hope <7663> for thy truth <0571>. 19 The living <2416>, the living <2416>, he shall praise <3034> thee, as I [do] this day <3117>: the father <1> to the children <1121> shall make known <3045> thy truth <0571>. 20 The LORD <3068> [was ready] to save <3467> me: therefore we will sing my songs <5058> to the stringed <5058> instruments all <3605> the days <3117> of our life <2416> in the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>. 21 For Isaiah <3470> had said <0559>, Let them take <5375> a lump <1690> of figs <8384>, and lay [it] for a plaister <4799> upon the boil <7822>, and he shall recover <2421>. 22 Hezekiah <2396> also had said <0559>, What <4100> [is] the sign <0226> that I shall go <5927> up to the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>? Isaiah 39 1. At that time <6256> Merodachbaladan <4757>, the son <1121> of Baladan <1081>, king <4428> of Babylon <0894>, sent <7971> letters <5612> and a present <4503> to Hezekiah <2396>: for he had heard <8085> that he had been sick <2470>, and was recovered <2388>. 2 And Hezekiah <2396> was glad <8056> of them, and shewed <7200> them the house <1004> of his precious <5238> things, the silver <3701>, and the gold <2091>, and the spices <1314>, and the precious <2896> ointment <8081>, and all <3605> the house <1004> of his armour <3627>, and all <3605> that was found <4672> in his treasures <0214>: there was nothing in his house <1004>, nor in all <3605> his dominion <4475>, that Hezekiah <2396> shewed <7200> them not. 3 Then came <0935> Isaiah <3470> the prophet <5030> unto king <4428> Hezekiah <2396>, and said <0559> unto him, What <4100> said <0559> these <0428> men <0582>? and from whence <0370> came <0935> they unto thee? And Hezekiah <2396> said <0559>, They are come <0935> from a far <7350> country <0776> unto me, [even] from Babylon <0894>. 4 Then said <0559> he, What <4100> have they seen <7200> in thine house <1004>? And Hezekiah <2396> answered <0559>, All <3605> that [is] in mine house <1004> have they seen <7200>: there is nothing among my treasures <0214> that I have not shewed <7200> them. 5. Then said <0559> Isaiah <3470> to Hezekiah <2396>, Hear <8085> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>: 6 Behold <2009>, the days <3117> come <0935>, that all <3605> that [is] in thine house <1004>, and [that] which <0834> thy fathers <1> have laid up in store <0686> until <5704> this <2088> day <3117>, shall be carried <5375> to Babylon <0894>: nothing shall be left <3498>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>. 7 And of thy sons <1121> that shall issue <3318> from thee, which <0834> thou shalt beget <3205>, shall they take <3947> away; and they shall be eunuchs <5631> in the palace <1964> of the king <4428> of Babylon <0894>. 8 Then said <0559> Hezekiah <2396> to Isaiah <3470>, Good <1319> [is] the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> which <0834> thou hast spoken <1696>. He said <0559> moreover, For there shall be peace <7965> and truth <0571> in my days <3117>. Isaiah 40 1. Comfort <5162> ye, comfort <5162> ye my people <5971>, saith <0559> your God <0430>. 2 Speak <1696> ye comfortably to Jerusalem <3389>, and cry <7121> unto her, that her warfare <6635> is accomplished <4390>, that her iniquity <5771> is pardoned <7521>: for she hath received <3947> of the LORD'S <3068> hand <3027> double <3718> for all <3605> her sins <2403>. 3. The voice <6963> of him that crieth <7121> in the wilderness <4057>, Prepare <6437> ye the way <1870> of the LORD <3068>, make straight <3474> in the desert <6160> a highway <4546> for our God <0430>. 4 Every <3605> valley <1516> shall be exalted <5375>, and every <3605> mountain <2022> and hill <1389> shall be made low <8213>: and the crooked <6121> shall be made straight <4334>, and the rough <7406> places plain <1237>: 5 And the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> shall be revealed <1540>, and all <3605> flesh <1320> shall see <7200> [it] together <3162>: for the mouth <6310> of the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> [it]. 6 The voice <6963> said <0559>, Cry <7121>. And he said <0559>, What <4100> shall I cry <7121>? All <3605> flesh <1320> [is] grass <2682>, and all <3605> the goodliness <2617> thereof [is] as the flower <6731> of the field <7704>: 7 The grass <2682> withereth <3001>, the flower <6731> fadeth <5034>: because <3588> the spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068> bloweth <5380> upon it: surely <0406> the people <5971> [is] grass <2682>. 8 The grass <2682> withereth <3001>, the flower <6731> fadeth <5034>: but the word <1697> of our God <0430> shall stand <6965> for ever <5769>. 9. O Zion <6726>, that bringest <1319> good <1319> tidings <1319>, get <5927> thee up into <5921> the high <1364> mountain <2022>; O Jerusalem <3389>, that bringest <1319> good tidings <1319>, lift <7311> up thy voice <6963> with strength <3581>; lift <7311> [it] up, be not afraid <3372>; say <0559> unto the cities <5892> of Judah <3063>, Behold <2009> your God <0430>! 10 Behold <2009>, the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> will come <0935> with strong <2389> [hand], and his arm <2220> shall rule <4910> for him: behold <2009>, his reward <7939> [is] with him, and his work <6468> before <6440> him. 11 He shall feed <7462> his flock <5739> like a shepherd <7462>: he shall gather <6908> the lambs <2922> with his arm <2220>, and carry <5375> [them] in his bosom <2436>, [and] shall gently lead <5095> those that are with young <5763>. 12. Who <4310> hath measured <4058> the waters <4325> in the hollow <8168> of his hand, and meted <8505> out heaven <8064> with the span <2239>, and comprehended <3557> the dust <6083> of the earth <0776> in a measure <7991>, and weighed <8254> the mountains <2022> in scales <6425>, and the hills <1389> in a balance <3976>? 13 Who <4310> hath directed <8505> the Spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068>, or [being] his counsellor <6098> hath taught <3045> him? 14 With whom <4310> took he counsel <3289>, and [who] instructed <0995> him, and taught <3925> him in the path <0734> of judgment <4941>, and taught <3925> him knowledge <1847>, and shewed <3045> to him the way <1870> of understanding <8394>? 15 Behold <2005>, the nations <1471> [are] as a drop <4752> of a bucket <1805>, and are counted <2803> as the small dust <7834> of the balance <3976>: behold <2005>, he taketh <5190> up the isles <0339> as a very <1851> little <1851> thing. 16 And Lebanon <3844> [is] not sufficient <1767> to burn <1197>, nor <0369> the beasts <2416> thereof sufficient <1767> for a burnt <5930> offering. 17 All <3605> nations <1471> before <6440> him [are] as nothing <0369>; and they are counted <2803> to him less <0657> than nothing, and vanity <8414>. 18. To whom <4310> then will ye liken <1819> God <0410>? or what <4100> likeness <1823> will ye compare <6186> unto him? 19 The workman <2796> melteth <5258> a graven <6459> image, and the goldsmith <6884> spreadeth <7554> it over with gold <2091>, and casteth <6884> silver <3701> chains <7569>. 20 He that [is] so impoverished <5533> that he hath no <3808> oblation <8641> chooseth <0977> a tree <6086> [that] will not rot <7537>; he seeketh <1245> unto him a cunning <2450> workman <2796> to prepare <3559> a graven <6459> image, [that] shall not be moved <4131>. 21 Have ye not known <3045>? have ye not heard <8085>? hath it not been told <5046> you from the beginning <7218>? have ye not understood <0995> from the foundations <4146> of the earth <0776>? 22 [It is] he that sitteth <3427> upon the circle <2329> of the earth <0776>, and the inhabitants <3427> thereof [are] as grasshoppers <2284>; that stretcheth <5186> out the heavens <8064> as a curtain <1852>, and spreadeth <4969> them out as a tent <0168> to dwell <3427> in: 23 That bringeth <5414> the princes <7336> to nothing; he maketh <6213> the judges <8199> of the earth <0776> as vanity <8414>. 24 Yea <0637>, they shall not be planted <5193>; yea <0637>, they shall not be sown <2232>: yea <0637>, their stock <1503> shall not take <3947> root <8327> in the earth <0776>: and he shall also <1571> blow <5398> upon them, and they shall wither <3001>, and the whirlwind <5591> shall take <5375> them away as stubble <7179>. 25 To whom <4310> then will ye liken <1819> me, or shall I be equal <7737>? saith <0559> the Holy <6918> One. 26 Lift <5375> up your eyes <5869> on high <4791>, and behold <7200> who <4310> hath created <1254> these <0428> [things], that bringeth <3318> out their host <6635> by number <4557>: he calleth <7121> them all <3605> by names <8034> by the greatness <7230> of his might <0202>, for that [he is] strong <0533> in power <3581>; not one <0376> faileth <5737>. 27. Why <4100> sayest <0559> thou, O Jacob <3290>, and speakest <1696>, O Israel <3478>, My way <1870> is hid <5641> from the LORD <3068>, and my judgment <4941> is passed <5674> over <5674> from my God <0430>? 28 Hast thou not known <3045>? hast thou not heard <8085>, [that] the everlasting <5769> God <0430>, the LORD <3068>, the Creator <1254> of the ends <7098> of the earth <0776>, fainteth <3286> not, neither <3808> is weary <3021>? [there is] no <0369> searching <2714> of his understanding <8394>. 29 He giveth <5414> power <3581> to the faint <3287>; and to [them that have] no <0369> might <0202> he increaseth <7235> strength <6109>. 30 Even the youths <5288> shall faint <3286> and be weary <3021>, and the young men shall utterly fall <3782>: 31 But they that wait <6960> upon the LORD <3068> shall renew <2498> [their] strength <3581>; they shall mount <5927> up with wings <83> as eagles <5404>; they shall run <7323>, and not be weary <3021>; [and] they shall walk <3212>, and not faint <3286>. Isaiah 41 1. Keep silence <2790> before <0413> me, O islands <0339>; and let the people <3816> renew <2498> [their] strength <3581>: let them come <5066> near <5066>; then <0227> let them speak <1696>: let us come <7126> near <7126> together <3162> to judgment <4941>. 2 Who <4310> raised <5782> up the righteous <6664> [man] from the east <4217>, called <7121> him to his foot <7272>, gave <5414> the nations <1471> before <6440> him, and made [him] rule <7287> over kings <4428>? he gave <5414> [them] as the dust <6083> to his sword <2719>, [and] as driven <5086> stubble <7179> to his bow <7198>. 3 He pursued <7291> them, [and] passed <5674> safely <7965>; [even] by the way <0734> [that] he had not gone <0935> with his feet <7272>. 4 Who <4310> hath wrought <6466> and done <6213> [it], calling <7121> the generations <1755> from the beginning <7218>? I the LORD <3068>, the first <7223>, and with the last <0314>; I [am] he. 5 The isles <0339> saw <7200> [it], and feared <3372>; the ends <7098> of the earth <0776> were afraid <2729>, drew near <7126>, and came <0857>. 6 They helped <5826> every <0376> one <0376> his neighbour <7453>; and [every <0376> one <0376>] said <0559> to his brother <0251>, Be of good <1390> courage <2388>. 7 So the carpenter <2796> encouraged <2388> the goldsmith <6884>, [and] he that smootheth <2505> [with] the hammer <6360> him that smote <1986> the anvil <6471>, saying <0559>, It [is] ready <2896> for the sodering <1694>: and he fastened <2388> it with nails <4548>, [that] it should not be moved <4131>. 8 But thou, Israel <3478>, [art] my servant <5650>, Jacob <3290> whom <0834> I have chosen <0977>, the seed <2233> of Abraham <85> my friend <0157>. 9 [Thou] whom <0834> I have taken <2388> from the ends <7098> of the earth <0776>, and called <7121> thee from the chief <0678> men thereof, and said <0559> unto thee, Thou [art] my servant <5650>; I have chosen <0977> thee, and not cast <3988> thee away. 10. Fear <3372> thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed <8159>; for I [am] thy God <0430>: I will strengthen <0553> thee; yea <0637>, I will help <5826> thee; yea <0637>, I will uphold <8551> thee with the right <3225> hand <3225> of my righteousness <6664>. 11 Behold <2005>, all <3605> they that were incensed <2734> against thee shall be ashamed <0954> and confounded <3637>: they shall be as nothing <0369>; and they that strive <7379> with thee shall perish <6>. 12 Thou shalt seek <1245> them, and shalt not find <4672> them, [even] them that contended <4695> with thee: they that war <4421> against thee shall be as nothing <0369>, and as a thing of nought <0657>. 13 For I the LORD <3068> thy God <0430> will hold <2388> thy right <3225> hand <3225>, saying <0559> unto thee, Fear <3372> not; I will help <5826> thee. 14 Fear <3372> not, thou worm <8438> Jacob <3290>, [and] ye men <4962> of Israel <3478>; I will help <5826> thee, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, and thy redeemer <1350>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 15 Behold <2009>, I will make <7760> thee a new <2319> sharp <2742> threshing <4173> instrument having <1167> teeth <6374>: thou shalt thresh <1758> the mountains <2022>, and beat <1854> [them] small <1854>, and shalt make <7760> the hills <1389> as chaff <4671>. 16 Thou shalt fan <2219> them, and the wind <7307> shall carry <5375> them away, and the whirlwind <5591> shall scatter <6327> them: and thou shalt rejoice <1523> in the LORD <3068>, [and] shalt glory <1984> in the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 17 [When] the poor <6041> and needy <34> seek <1245> water <4325>, and [there is] none <0369>, [and] their tongue <3956> faileth <5405> for thirst <6772>, I the LORD <3068> will hear <6030> them, I the God <0430> of Israel <3478> will not forsake <5800> them. 18 I will open <6605> rivers <5103> in high <8203> places, and fountains <4599> in the midst <8432> of the valleys <1237>: I will make <7760> the wilderness <4057> a pool <98> of water <4325>, and the dry <6723> land <0776> springs <4161> of water <4325>. 19 I will plant <5414> in the wilderness <4057> the cedar <0730>, the shittah <7848> tree <6086>, and the myrtle <1918>, and the oil <8081> tree <6086>; I will set <7760> in the desert <6160> the fir <1265> tree, [and] the pine <8410>, and the box <8391> tree together <3162>: 20 That they may see <7200>, and know <3045>, and consider <7760>, and understand <7919> together <3162>, that the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> hath done <6213> this <2063>, and the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478> hath created <1254> it. 21. Produce <7126> your cause <7379>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; bring <5066> forth <5066> your strong <6110> [reasons], saith <0559> the King <4428> of Jacob <3290>. 22 Let them bring <5066> [them] forth <5066>, and shew <5046> us what shall happen <7136>: let them shew <5046> the former <7223> things, what <4100> they [be], that we may consider them, and know <3045> the latter <0319> end of them; or declare <8085> us things for to come <0935>. 23 Shew <5046> the things that are to come <0857> hereafter <0268>, that we may know <3045> that ye [are] gods <0430>: yea <0637>, do good <1319>, or do evil <7489>, that we may be dismayed <8159>, and behold <7200> [it] together <3162>. 24 Behold <2005>, ye [are] of nothing <0369>, and your work <6467> of nought <0659>: an abomination <8441> [is he that] chooseth <0977> you. 25 I have raised <5782> up [one] from the north <6828>, and he shall come <0857>: from the rising <4217> of the sun <8121> shall he call <7121> upon my name <8034>: and he shall come <0935> upon princes <5461> as [upon] morter <2563>, and as the potter <3335> treadeth <7429> clay <2916>. 26 Who <4310> hath declared <5046> from the beginning <7218>, that we may know <3045>? and beforetime <6440>, that we may say <0559>, [He is] righteous <6662>? yea <0637>, [there is] none <0369> that sheweth <5046>, yea <0637>, [there is] none <0369> that declareth <5046>, yea <0637>, [there is] none <0369> that heareth <8085> your words <0561>. 27 The first <7223> [shall say] to Zion <6726>, Behold <2009>, behold <2009> them: and I will give <5414> to Jerusalem <3389> one that bringeth <1319> good <1319> tidings <1319>. 28 For I beheld <7200>, and [there was] no <0369> man <0376>; even among them, and [there was] no <0369> counsellor <3289>, that, when I asked <7592> of them, could answer <7725> a word <1697>. 29 Behold <2005>, they [are] all <3605> vanity <0205>; their works <4639> [are] nothing <0657>: their molten <5262> images [are] wind <7307> and confusion <5414>. Isaiah 42 1. Behold <2005> my servant <5650>, whom I uphold <8551>; mine elect <0972>, [in whom] my soul <5315> delighteth <7521>; I have put <5414> my spirit <7307> upon him: he shall bring <3318> forth <3318> judgment <4941> to the Gentiles <1471>. 2 He shall not cry <6817>, nor <3808> lift <5375> up, nor <3808> cause his voice <6963> to be heard <8085> in the street <2351>. 3 A bruised <7533> reed <7070> shall he not break <7665>, and the smoking <3544> flax <6594> shall he not quench <3518>: he shall bring <3318> forth <3318> judgment <4941> unto truth <0571>. 4 He shall not fail <3543> nor <3808> be discouraged <7533>, till <5704> he have set <7760> judgment <4941> in the earth <0776>: and the isles <0339> shall wait <3176> for his law <8451>. 5. Thus <3541> saith <0559> God <0410> the LORD <3068>, he that created <1254> the heavens <8064>, and stretched <5186> them out; he that spread <7554> forth the earth <0776>, and that which cometh <6631> out of it; he that giveth <5414> breath <5397> unto the people <5971> upon it, and spirit <7307> to them that walk <1980> therein: 6 I the LORD <3068> have called <7121> thee in righteousness <6664>, and will hold <2388> thine hand <3027>, and will keep <5341> thee, and give <5414> thee for a covenant <1285> of the people <5971>, for a light <0216> of the Gentiles <1471>; 7 To open <6491> the blind <5787> eyes <5869>, to bring <3318> out the prisoners <0616> from the prison <4525>, [and] them that sit <3427> in darkness <2822> out of the prison <3608> house <1004>. 8 I [am] the LORD <3068>: that [is] my name <8034>: and my glory <3519> will I not give <5414> to another <0312>, neither my praise <8416> to graven <6456> images. 9 Behold <2009>, the former <7223> things are come <0935> to pass, and new <2319> things do I declare <5046>: before <2962> they spring <6779> forth I tell <8085> you of them. 10 Sing <7891> unto the LORD <3068> a new <2319> song <7892>, [and] his praise <8416> from the end <7097> of the earth <0776>, ye that go <3381> down <3381> to the sea <3220>, and all <4393> that is therein <4393>; the isles <0339>, and the inhabitants <3427> thereof. 11 Let the wilderness <4057> and the cities <5892> thereof lift <5375> up [their voice], the villages <2691> [that] Kedar <6938> doth inhabit <3427>: let the inhabitants <3427> of the rock <5553> sing <7442>, let them shout <6681> from the top <7218> of the mountains <2022>. 12 Let them give <7760> glory <3519> unto the LORD <3068>, and declare <5046> his praise <8416> in the islands <0339>. 13. The LORD <3068> shall go <3318> forth <3318> as a mighty <1368> man <0376>, he shall stir <5782> up jealousy <7068> like a man <0376> of war <4421>: he shall cry <7321>, yea <0637>, roar <6873>; he shall prevail <1396> against <5921> his enemies <0341>. 14 I have long <5769> time holden <2814> my peace <7814>; I have been <1961> still <2790>, [and] refrained <0662> myself: [now] will I cry <6463> like a travailing <3205> woman; I will destroy <5395> and devour <7602> at <3162> once <3162>. 15 I will make <7760> waste <2717> mountains <2022> and hills <1389>, and dry <3001> up all <3605> their herbs <6212>; and I will make <7760> the rivers <5103> islands <0339>, and I will dry <3001> up the pools <98>. 16 And I will bring <3212> the blind <5787> by a way <1870> [that] they knew <3045> not; I will lead <1869> them in paths <5410> [that] they have not known <3045>: I will make <7760> darkness <4285> light <0216> before <6440> them, and crooked <4625> things straight <4334>. These <0428> things <1697> will I do <6213> unto them, and not forsake <5800> them. 17 They shall be turned <5472> back <0268>, they shall be greatly ashamed <0954>, that trust <0982> in graven <6459> images, that say <0559> to the molten <4541> images, Ye [are] our gods <0430>. 18. Hear <8085>, ye deaf <2795>; and look <5027>, ye blind <5787>, that ye may see <7200>. 19 Who <4310> [is] blind <5787>, but my servant <5650>? or deaf <2795>, as my messenger <4397> [that] I sent <7971>? who <4310> [is] blind <5787> as [he that is] perfect <7999>, and blind <5787> as the LORD'S <3068> servant <5650>? 20 Seeing <7200> many <7227> things, but thou observest <8104> not; opening <6491> the ears <0241>, but he heareth <8085> not. 21 The LORD <3068> is well <2654> pleased <2654> for his righteousness <6664>' sake <4616>; he will magnify <1431> the law <8451>, and make [it] honourable <0142>. 22 But this <1931> [is] a people <5971> robbed <0962> and spoiled <8154>; [they are] all <3605> of them snared <6351> in holes <2356>, and they are hid <2244> in prison <3608> houses <1004>: they are for a prey <0957>, and none <0369> delivereth <5337>; for a spoil <4933>, and none <0369> saith <0559>, Restore <7725>. 23 Who <4310> among you will give ear <0238> to this <2063>? [who] will hearken <7181> and hear <8085> for the time <0268> to come? 24 Who <4310> gave <5414> Jacob <3290> for a spoil <4882>, and Israel <3478> to the robbers <0962>? did not the LORD <3068>, he against whom <2098> we have sinned <2398>? for they would <14> not walk <1980> in his ways <1870>, neither <3808> were they obedient <8085> unto his law <8451>. 25 Therefore he hath poured <8210> upon him the fury <2534> of his anger <0639>, and the strength <5807> of battle <4421>: and it hath set <7760> him on fire <3857> round <5439> about, yet he knew <3045> not; and it burned <1197> him, yet he laid <7760> [it] not to heart <3820>. Isaiah 43 1. But now <6258> thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> that created <1254> thee, O Jacob <3290>, and he that formed <3335> thee, O Israel <3478>, Fear <3372> not: for I have redeemed <1350> thee, I have called <7121> [thee] by thy name <8034>; thou [art] mine. 2 When <3588> thou passest <5674> through the waters <4325>, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers <5103>, they shall not overflow <7857> thee: when <3588> thou walkest <3212> through <1119> the fire <0784>, thou shalt not be burned <3554>; neither <3808> shall the flame <3852> kindle <1197> upon thee. 3 For I [am] the LORD <3068> thy God <0430>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, thy Saviour <3467>: I gave <5414> Egypt <4714> [for] thy ransom <3724>, Ethiopia <3568> and Seba <5434> for thee. 4 Since thou wast precious <3365> in my sight <5869>, thou hast been honourable <3513>, and I have loved <0157> thee: therefore will I give <5414> men <0120> for thee, and people <3816> for thy life <5315>. 5 Fear <3372> not: for I [am] with thee: I will bring <0935> thy seed <2233> from the east <4217>, and gather <6908> thee from the west <4628>; 6 I will say <0559> to the north <6828>, Give <5414> up; and to the south <8486>, Keep <3607> not back <3607>: bring <0935> my sons <1121> from far <7350>, and my daughters <1121> from the ends <7097> of the earth <0776>; 7 [Even] every <3605> one that is called <7121> by my name <8034>: for I have created <1254> him for my glory <3519>, I have formed <3335> him; yea <0637>, I have made <6213> him. 8. Bring <3318> forth <3318> the blind <5787> people <5971> that have <3426> eyes <5869>, and the deaf <2795> that have ears <0241>. 9 Let all <3605> the nations <1471> be gathered <6908> together <3162>, and let the people <3816> be assembled: who <4310> among them can declare <5046> this <2063>, and shew <8085> us former <7223> things? let them bring <5414> forth their witnesses <5707>, that they may be justified <6663>: or let them hear <8085>, and say <0559>, [It is] truth <0571>. 10 Ye [are] my witnesses <5707>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, and my servant <5650> whom <0834> I have chosen <0977>: that ye may know <3045> and believe <0539> me, and understand <0995> that I [am] he: before <6440> me there was no <3808> God <0410> formed <3335>, neither <3808> shall there be after <0310> me. 11 I, [even] I, [am] the LORD <3068>; and beside <1107> me [there is] no <0369> saviour <3467>. 12 I have declared <5046>, and have saved <3467>, and I have shewed <8085>, when [there was] no <0369> strange <2114> [god] among you: therefore ye [are] my witnesses <5707>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, that I [am] God <0410>. 13 Yea <1571>, before the day <3117> [was] I [am] he; and [there is] none <0369> that can deliver <5337> out of my hand <3027>: I will work <6466>, and who <4310> shall let <7725> it? 14. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, your redeemer <1350>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>; For your sake <4616> I have sent <7971> to Babylon <0894>, and have brought <3381> down <3381> all <3605> their nobles <1281>, and the Chaldeans <3778>, whose cry <7440> [is] in the ships <0591>. 15 I [am] the LORD <3068>, your Holy <6918> One, the creator <1254> of Israel <3478>, your King <4428>. 16 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, which maketh <5414> a way <1870> in the sea <3220>, and a path <5410> in the mighty <5794> waters <4325>; 17 Which bringeth <3318> forth <4161> the chariot <7393> and horse <5483>, the army <2428> and the power <5808>; they shall lie <7901> down <3381> together <3162>, they shall not rise <6965>: they are extinct <1846>, they are quenched <3518> as tow <6594>. 18 Remember <2142> ye not the former <7223> things, neither <0408> consider <0995> the things of old <6931>. 19 Behold <2005>, I will do <6213> a new <2319> thing; now <6258> it shall spring <6779> forth <6779>; shall ye not know <3045> it? I will even <0637> make <7760> a way <1870> in the wilderness <4057>, [and] rivers <5103> in the desert <3452>. 20 The beast <2416> of the field <7704> shall honour <3513> me, the dragons <8577> and the owls: because <3588> I give <5414> waters <4325> in the wilderness <4057>, [and] rivers <5103> in the desert <3452>, to give drink <8248> to my people <5971>, my chosen <0972>. 21 This <2098> people <5971> have I formed <3335> for myself; they shall shew <5608> forth my praise <8416>. 22. But thou hast not called <7121> upon me, O Jacob <3290>; but thou hast been weary <3021> of me, O Israel <3478>. 23 Thou hast not brought <0935> me the small cattle <7716> of thy burnt <5930> offerings; neither <3808> hast thou honoured <3513> me with thy sacrifices <2077>. I have not caused thee to serve <5647> with an offering <4503>, nor <3808> wearied <3021> thee with incense <3828>. 24 Thou hast bought <7069> me no <3808> sweet cane <7070> with money <3701>, neither <3808> hast thou filled <7301> me with the fat <2459> of thy sacrifices <2077>: but thou hast made me to serve <5647> with thy sins <2403>, thou hast wearied <3021> me with thine iniquities <5771>. 25 I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth <4229> out thy transgressions <6588> for mine own sake <4616>, and will not remember <2142> thy sins <2403>. 26 Put me in remembrance <2142>: let us plead <8199> together <3162>: declare <5608> thou, that thou mayest be justified <6663>. 27 Thy first <7223> father <1> hath sinned <2398>, and thy teachers <3887> have transgressed <6586> against me. 28 Therefore I have profaned <2490> the princes <8269> of the sanctuary <6944>, and have given <5414> Jacob <3290> to the curse <2764>, and Israel <3478> to reproaches <1421>. Isaiah 44 1. Yet now <6258> hear <8085>, O Jacob <3290> my servant <5650>; and Israel <3478>, whom I have chosen <0977>: 2 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> that made <6213> thee, and formed <3335> thee from the womb <0990>, [which] will help <5826> thee; Fear <3372> not, O Jacob <3290>, my servant <5650>; and thou, Jesurun <3484>, whom I have chosen <0977>. 3 For I will pour <3332> water <4325> upon him that is thirsty <6771>, and floods <5140> upon the dry <3004> ground: I will pour <3332> my spirit <7307> upon thy seed <2233>, and my blessing <1293> upon thine offspring <6631>: 4 And they shall spring <6779> up [as] among <0996> the grass <2682>, as willows <6155> by the water <4325> courses <2988>. 5 One shall say <0559>, I [am] the LORD'S <3068>; and another <2088> shall call <7121> [himself] by the name <8034> of Jacob <3290>; and another <2088> shall subscribe <3789> [with] his hand <3027> unto the LORD <3068>, and surname <3655> [himself] by the name <8034> of Israel <3478>. 6 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> the King <4428> of Israel <3478>, and his redeemer <1350> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>; I [am] the first <7223>, and I [am] the last <0314>; and beside <1107> me [there is] no <0369> God <0430>. 7 And who <4310>, as I, shall call <7121>, and shall declare <5046> it, and set it in order <6186> for me, since I appointed <7760> the ancient <5769> people <5971>? and the things that are coming <0857>, and shall come <0935>, let them shew <5046> unto them. 8 Fear <6342> ye not, neither <0408> be afraid <7297>: have not I told <8085> thee from that time <0227>, and have declared <5046> [it]? ye [are] even my witnesses <5707>. Is there a God <0433> beside <1107> me? yea, [there is] no <0369> God <6697>; I know <3045> not [any]. 9. They that make <3335> a graven <6459> image [are] all <3605> of them vanity <8414>; and their delectable <2530> things shall not profit <3276>; and they [are] their own witnesses <5707>; they see <7200> not, nor <1077> know <3045>; that they may be ashamed <0954>. 10 Who <4310> hath formed <3335> a god <0410>, or molten <5258> a graven <6459> image [that] is profitable <3276> for nothing <1115>? 11 Behold <2005>, all <3605> his fellows <2270> shall be ashamed <0954>: and the workmen <2796>, they [are] of men <0120>: let them all <3605> be gathered <6908> together, let them stand <5975> up; [yet] they shall fear <6342>, [and] they shall be ashamed <0954> together <3162>. 12 The smith with the tongs <4621> both worketh <6466> in the coals <6352>, and fashioneth <3335> it with hammers <4717>, and worketh <6466> it with the strength <3581> of his arms <2220>: yea <1571>, he is hungry <7456>, and his strength <3581> faileth <0369>: he drinketh <8354> no <3808> water <4325>, and is faint <3286>. 13 The carpenter <2796> stretcheth <5186> out [his] rule <4910>; he marketh <8388> it out with a line <8279>; he fitteth <6213> it with planes <4741>, and he marketh <8388> it out with the compass <4230>, and maketh <6213> it after the figure <8403> of a man <0376>, according to the beauty <8597> of a man <0120>; that it may remain <3427> in the house <1004>. 14 He heweth <3772> him down cedars <0730>, and taketh <3947> the cypress <8645> and the oak <0437>, which he strengtheneth <0553> for himself among the trees <6086> of the forest <3293>: he planteth <5192> an ash <0766>, and the rain <1653> doth nourish <1431> [it]. 15 Then shall it be for a man <0120> to burn <1197>: for he will take <3947> thereof, and warm <2552> himself; yea <0637>, he kindleth <5400> [it], and baketh <0644> bread <3899>; yea <0637>, he maketh <6466> a god <0410>, and worshippeth <7812> [it]; he maketh <6213> it a graven <6459> image, and falleth <5456> down <5456> thereto. 16 He burneth <8313> part <2677> thereof in the fire <0784>; with part <2677> thereof he eateth <0398> flesh <1320>; he roasteth <0740> roast <6748>, and is satisfied <7646>: yea <0637>, he warmeth <2552> [himself], and saith <0559>, Aha <0253>, I am warm <2552>, I have seen <7200> the fire <0217>: 17 And the residue <7611> thereof he maketh <6213> a god <0410>, [even] his graven <6459> image: he falleth <5456> down <5456> unto it, and worshippeth <7812> [it], and prayeth <6419> unto it, and saith <0559>, Deliver <5337> me; for thou [art] my god <0410>. 18 They have not known <3045> nor understood <0995>: for he hath shut <2902> their eyes <5869>, that they cannot see <7200>; [and] their hearts <3826>, that they cannot understand <7919>. 19 And none <3808> considereth <7725> in his heart <3820>, neither <3808> [is there] knowledge <1847> nor <3808> understanding <8394> to say <0559>, I have burned <8314> part <2677> of it in the fire <0784>; yea <0637>, also <0637> I have baked <0644> bread <3899> upon the coals <1513> thereof; I have roasted <6740> flesh <1320>, and eaten <0398> [it]: and shall I make <6213> the residue <3499> thereof an abomination <8441>? shall I fall <5456> down <5456> to the stock <0944> of a tree <6086>? 20 He feedeth <7462> on ashes <0665>: a deceived <2048> heart <3820> hath turned <5186> him aside <5186>, that he cannot <3808> deliver <5337> his soul <5315>, nor <3808> say <0559>, [Is there] not a lie <3576> in my right <3225> hand <3225>? 21. Remember <2142> these <0428>, O Jacob <3290> and Israel <3478>; for thou [art] my servant <5650>: I have formed <3335> thee; thou [art] my servant <5650>: O Israel <3478>, thou shalt not be forgotten <5382> of me. 22 I have blotted <4229> out, as a thick cloud <5645>, thy transgressions <6588>, and, as a cloud <6051>, thy sins <2403>: return <7725> unto me; for I have redeemed <1350> thee. 23 Sing <7442>, O ye heavens <8064>; for the LORD <3068> hath done <6213> [it]: shout <7321>, ye lower <8482> parts of the earth <0776>: break <6476> forth into singing <7440>, ye mountains <2022>, O forest <3293>, and every <3605> tree <6086> therein: for the LORD <3068> hath redeemed <1350> Jacob <3290>, and glorified <6286> himself in Israel <3478>. 24 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, thy redeemer <1350>, and he that formed <3335> thee from the womb <0990>, I [am] the LORD <3068> that maketh <6213> all <3605> [things]; that stretcheth <5186> forth the heavens <8064> alone <0905>; that spreadeth <7554> abroad <7554> the earth <0776> by myself; 25 That frustrateth <6565> the tokens <0226> of the liars <0907>, and maketh diviners <7080> mad <1984>; that turneth <7725> wise <2450> [men] backward <0268>, and maketh their knowledge <1847> foolish <5528>; 26 That confirmeth <6965> the word <1697> of his servant <5650>, and performeth <7999> the counsel <6098> of his messengers <4397>; that saith <0559> to Jerusalem <3389>, Thou shalt be inhabited <3427>; and to the cities <5892> of Judah <3063>, Ye shall be built <1129>, and I will raise <6965> up the decayed <2723> places thereof: 27 That saith <0559> to the deep <6683>, Be dry <2717>, and I will dry <3001> up thy rivers <5103>: 28 That saith <0559> of Cyrus <3566>, [He is] my shepherd <7462>, and shall perform <7999> all <3605> my pleasure <2656>: even saying <0559> to Jerusalem <3389>, Thou shalt be built <1129>; and to the temple <1964>, Thy foundation <3245> shall be laid. Isaiah 45 1. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> to his anointed <4899>, to Cyrus <3566>, whose <0834> right <3225> hand <3225> I have holden <2388>, to subdue <7286> nations <1471> before <6440> him; and I will loose <6605> the loins <4975> of kings <4428>, to open <6605> before <6440> him the two leaved <1817> gates <1817>; and the gates <8179> shall not be shut <5462>; 2 I will go <3212> before <6440> thee, and make the crooked <1921> places straight <3474>: I will break <7665> in pieces the gates <1817> of brass <5154>, and cut <1438> in sunder the bars <1280> of iron <1270>: 3 And I will give <5414> thee the treasures <0214> of darkness <2822>, and hidden <4301> riches <4301> of secret <4565> places, that thou mayest know <3045> that I, the LORD <3068>, which call <7121> [thee] by thy name <8034>, [am] the God <0430> of Israel <3478>. 4 For Jacob <3290> my servant's <5650> sake <4616>, and Israel <3478> mine elect <0972>, I have even called <7121> thee by thy name <8034>: I have surnamed <3655> thee, though thou hast not known <3045> me. 5. I [am] the LORD <3068>, and [there is] none <0369> else <5750>, [there is] no <0369> God <0430> beside <2108> me: I girded <0247> thee, though thou hast not known <3045> me: 6 That they may know <3045> from the rising <4217> of the sun <8121>, and from the west <4628>, that [there is] none <0657> beside <1107> me. I [am] the LORD <3068>, and [there is] none <0369> else <5750>. 7 I form <3335> the light <0216>, and create <1254> darkness <2822>: I make <6213> peace <7965>, and create <1254> evil <7451>: I the LORD <3068> do <6213> all these <0428> [things]. 8 Drop <7491> down, ye heavens <8064>, from above <4605>, and let the skies <7834> pour <5140> down righteousness <6664>: let the earth <0776> open <6605>, and let them bring <6509> forth <6509> salvation <3468>, and let righteousness <6666> spring <6779> up together <3162>; I the LORD <3068> have created <1254> it. 9 Woe <1945> unto him that striveth <7378> with his Maker <3335>! [Let] the potsherd <2789> [strive] with the potsherds <2789> of the earth <0127>. Shall the clay <2563> say <0559> to him that fashioneth <3335> it, What <4100> makest <6213> thou? or thy work <6467>, He hath no <0369> hands <3027>? 10 Woe <1945> unto him that saith <0559> unto [his] father <1>, What <4100> begettest <3205> thou? or to the woman <0802>, What <4100> hast thou brought <2342> forth <2342>? 11. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, and his Maker <3335>, Ask <7592> me of things to come <0857> concerning <5921> my sons <1121>, and concerning <5921> the work <6467> of my hands <3027> command <6680> ye me. 12 I have made <6213> the earth <0776>, and created <1254> man <0120> upon it: I, [even] my hands <3027>, have stretched <5186> out the heavens <8064>, and all <3605> their host <6635> have I commanded <6680>. 13 I have raised <5782> him up in righteousness <6664>, and I will direct <3474> all <3605> his ways <1870>: he shall build <1129> my city <5892>, and he shall let go <7971> my captives <1546>, not for price <4242> nor <3808> reward <7810>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635>. 14 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, The labour <3018> of Egypt <4714>, and merchandise <5505> of Ethiopia <3568> and of the Sabeans <5436>, men <0582> of stature <4060>, shall come <5674> over <5674> unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come <3212> after <0310> thee; in chains <2131> they shall come <5674> over <5674>, and they shall fall <7812> down <7812> unto thee, they shall make supplication <6419> unto thee, [saying], Surely <0389> God <0410> [is] in thee; and [there is] none <0369> else <5750>, [there is] no <0657> God <0430>. 15 Verily <0403> thou [art] a God <0410> that hidest <5641> thyself, O God <0430> of Israel <3478>, the Saviour <3467>. 16 They shall be ashamed <0954>, and also <1571> confounded <3637>, all <3605> of them: they shall go <1980> to confusion <3639> together <3162> [that are] makers <2796> of idols <6736>. 17 [But] Israel <3478> shall be saved <3467> in the LORD <3068> with an everlasting <5769> salvation <8668>: ye shall not be ashamed <0954> nor <3808> confounded <3637> world <5769> without end. 18 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> that created <1254> the heavens <8064>; God <0430> himself <1931> that formed <3335> the earth <0776> and made <6213> it; he hath established <3559> it, he created <1254> it not in vain <8414>, he formed <3335> it to be inhabited <3427>: I [am] the LORD <3068>; and [there is] none <0369> else <5750>. 19 I have not spoken <1696> in secret <5643>, in a dark <2822> place <4725> of the earth <0776>: I said <0559> not unto the seed <2233> of Jacob <3290>, Seek <1245> ye me in vain <8414>: I the LORD <3068> speak <1696> righteousness <6664>, I declare <5046> things that are right <4339>. 20. Assemble <6908> yourselves and come <0935>; draw near <5066> together <3162>, ye [that are] escaped <6412> of the nations <1471>: they have no <3808> knowledge <3045> that set <5375> up the wood <6086> of their graven <6459> image, and pray <6419> unto a god <0410> [that] cannot <3808> save <3467>. 21 Tell <5046> ye, and bring <5066> [them] near <5066>; yea <0637>, let them take counsel <3289> together <3162>: who <4310> hath declared <5046> this <2063> from ancient <6924> time? [who] hath told <5046> it from that time <0227>? [have] not I the LORD <3068>? and [there is] no <0369> God <0430> else <5750> beside <1107> me; a just <6662> God <0410> and a Saviour <3467>; [there is] none <0369> beside <2108> me. 22 Look <6437> unto me, and be ye saved <3467>, all the ends <0657> of the earth <0776>: for I [am] God <0410>, and [there is] none <0369> else <5750>. 23 I have sworn <7650> by myself, the word <1697> is gone <3318> out of my mouth <6310> [in] righteousness <6666>, and shall not return <7725>, That unto me every <3605> knee <1290> shall bow <3766>, every <3605> tongue <3956> shall swear <7650>. 24 Surely, shall [one] say <0559>, in the LORD <3068> have I righteousness <6666> and strength <5797>: [even] to him shall [men] come <0935>; and all <3605> that are incensed <2734> against him shall be ashamed <0954>. 25 In the LORD <3068> shall all <3605> the seed <2233> of Israel <3478> be justified <6663>, and shall glory <1984>. Isaiah 46 1. Bel <1078> boweth <3766> down <3766>, Nebo <5015> stoopeth <7164>, their idols <6091> were upon the beasts <2416>, and upon the cattle <0929>: your carriages <5385> [were] heavy loaden <6006>; [they are] a burden <4853> to the weary <5889> [beast]. 2 They stoop <7164>, they bow <3766> down <3766> together <3162>; they could <3201> not deliver <4422> the burden <4853>, but themselves <5315> are gone <1980> into captivity <7628>. 3 Hearken <8085> unto me, O house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, and all <3605> the remnant <7611> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, which are borne <6006> [by me] from the belly <0990>, which are carried <5375> from the womb <7356>: 4 And [even] to [your] old <2209> age <2209> I [am] he; and [even] to hoar <7872> hairs will I carry <5445> [you]: I have made <6213>, and I will bear <5375>; even I will carry <5445>, and will deliver <4422> [you]. 5. To whom <4310> will ye liken <1819> me, and make [me] equal <7737>, and compare <4911> me, that we may be like <1819>? 6 They lavish <2107> gold <2091> out of the bag <3599>, and weigh <8254> silver <3701> in the balance <7070>, [and] hire <7936> a goldsmith <6884>; and he maketh <6213> it a god <0410>: they fall <5456> down <5456>, yea <0637>, they worship <7812>. 7 They bear <5375> him upon the shoulder <3802>, they carry <5445> him, and set <3240> him in his place <8478>, and he standeth <5975>; from his place <4725> shall he not remove <4185>: yea <0637>, [one] shall cry <6817> unto him, yet can he not answer <6030>, nor <3808> save <3467> him out of his trouble <6869>. 8 Remember <2142> this <2063>, and shew yourselves men <0376>: bring <7725> [it] again <7725> to mind <3820>, O ye transgressors <6586>. 9 Remember <2142> the former <7223> things of old <5769>: for I [am] God <0410>, and [there is] none <0369> else <5750>; [I am] God <0430>, and [there is] none <0657> like <3644> me, 10 Declaring <5046> the end <0319> from the beginning <7225>, and from ancient <6924> times [the things] that are not [yet] done <6213>, saying <0559>, My counsel <6098> shall stand <6965>, and I will do <6213> all <3605> my pleasure <2656>: 11 Calling <7121> a ravenous <5861> bird <5861> from the east <4217>, the man <0376> that executeth my counsel <6098> from a far <4801> country <0776>: yea <0637>, I have spoken <1696> [it], I will also <0637> bring <0935> it to pass; I have purposed <3335> [it], I will also <0637> do <6213> it. 12 Hearken <8085> unto me, ye stouthearted, that [are] far <7350> from righteousness <6666>: 13 I bring <7126> near <7126> my righteousness <6666>; it shall not be far <7368> off, and my salvation <8668> shall not tarry <0309>: and I will place <5414> salvation <8668> in Zion <6726> for Israel <3478> my glory <8597>. Isaiah 47 1. Come <3381> down <3381>, and sit <3427> in the dust <6083>, O virgin <1330> daughter <1323> of Babylon <0894>, sit <3427> on <5921> the ground <0776>: [there is] no <0369> throne <3678>, O daughter <1323> of the Chaldeans <3778>: for thou shalt no <3808> more <3254> be called <7121> tender <7390> and delicate <6028>. 2 Take <3947> the millstones <7347>, and grind <2912> meal <7058>: uncover <1540> thy locks <6777>, make bare <2834> the leg <7640>, uncover <1540> the thigh <7785>, pass <5674> over <5674> the rivers <5103>. 3 Thy nakedness <6172> shall be uncovered <1540>, yea <1571>, thy shame <2781> shall be seen <7200>: I will take <3947> vengeance <5359>, and I will not meet <6293> [thee as] a man <0120>. 4 [As for] our redeemer <1350>, the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> [is] his name <8034>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 5 Sit <3427> thou silent <1748>, and get <0935> thee into darkness <2822>, O daughter <1323> of the Chaldeans <3778>: for thou shalt no <3808> more <3254> be called <7121>, The lady <1404> of kingdoms <4467>. 6 I was wroth <7107> with my people <5971>, I have polluted <2490> mine inheritance <5159>, and given <5414> them into thine hand <3027>: thou didst shew <7760> them no <3808> mercy <7356>; upon the ancient <2204> hast thou very <3966> heavily <3513> laid thy yoke <5923>. 7. And thou saidst <0559>, I shall be a lady <1404> for ever <5769>: [so <5704>] that thou didst not lay <7760> these <0428> [things] to thy heart <3820>, neither <3808> didst remember <2142> the latter <0319> end of it. 8 Therefore hear <8085> now <6258> this <2063>, [thou that art] given to pleasures <5719>, that dwellest <3427> carelessly <0983>, that sayest <0559> in thine heart <3824>, I [am], and none <0657> else <5750> beside <0657> me; I shall not sit <3427> [as] a widow <0490>, neither <3808> shall I know <3045> the loss <7921> of children: 9 But these <0428> two <8147> [things] shall come <0935> to thee in a moment <7281> in one <0259> day <3117>, the loss <7921> of children, and widowhood <0489>: they shall come <0935> upon thee in their perfection <8537> for the multitude <7230> of thy sorceries <3785>, [and] for the great <3966> abundance <6109> of thine enchantments <2267>. 10 For thou hast trusted <0982> in thy wickedness <7451>: thou hast said <0559>, None <0369> seeth <7200> me. Thy wisdom <2451> and thy knowledge <1847>, it hath perverted <7725> thee; and thou hast said <0559> in thine heart <3820>, I [am], and none <0657> else <5750> beside <0657> me. 11 Therefore shall evil <7451> come <0935> upon thee; thou shalt not know <3045> from whence <0370> it riseth <7837>: and mischief <1943> shall fall <5307> upon thee; thou shalt not be able <3201> to put <3722> it off: and desolation <7722> shall come <0935> upon thee suddenly <6597>, [which] thou shalt not know <3045>. 12 Stand <5975> now <4994> with thine enchantments <2267>, and with the multitude <7230> of thy sorceries <3785>, wherein <0834> thou hast laboured <3021> from thy youth <5271>; if <0194> so be thou shalt be able <3201> to profit <3276>, if <0194> so be thou mayest prevail <6206>. 13 Thou art wearied <3811> in the multitude <7230> of thy counsels <6098>. Let now <4994> the astrologers <1895>, the stargazers, the monthly <2320> prognosticators <3045>, stand <5975> up, and save <3467> thee from [these things] that shall come <0935> upon thee. 14 Behold <2009>, they shall be as stubble <7179>; the fire <0784> shall burn <8313> them; they shall not deliver <5337> themselves <5315> from the power <3027> of the flame <3852>: [there shall] not [be] a coal <1513> to warm <2552> at, [nor] fire <0217> to sit <3427> before <5048> it. 15 Thus <3651> shall they be unto thee with whom <0834> thou hast laboured <3021>, [even] thy merchants <5503>, from thy youth <5271>: they shall wander <8582> every <0376> one <0376> to his quarter <5676>; none <0369> shall save <3467> thee. Isaiah 48 1. Hear <8085> ye this <2063>, O house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, which are called <7121> by the name <8034> of Israel <3478>, and are come <3318> forth <3318> out of the waters <4325> of Judah <3063>, which swear <7650> by the name <8034> of the LORD <3068>, and make mention <2142> of the God <0430> of Israel <3478>, [but] not in truth <0571>, nor <3808> in righteousness <6666>. 2 For they call <7121> themselves of the holy <6944> city <5892>, and stay <5564> themselves upon the God <0430> of Israel <3478>; The LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> [is] his name <8034>. 3 I have declared <5046> the former <7223> things from the beginning <0227>; and they went <3318> forth <3318> out of my mouth <6310>, and I shewed <8085> them; I did <6213> [them] suddenly <6597>, and they came <0935> to pass. 4 Because I knew <1847> that thou [art] obstinate <7186>, and thy neck <6203> [is] an iron <1270> sinew <1517>, and thy brow <4696> brass <5154>; 5 I have even from the beginning <0227> declared <5046> [it] to thee; before <2962> it came <0935> to pass I shewed <8085> [it] thee: lest <6435> thou shouldest say <0559>, Mine idol <6090> hath done <6213> them, and my graven <6459> image, and my molten <5262> image, hath commanded <6680> them. 6 Thou hast heard <8085>, see <2372> all <3605> this; and will not ye declare <5046> [it]? I have shewed <8085> thee new <2319> things from this time <6258>, even hidden <5341> things, and thou didst not know <3045> them. 7 They are created <1254> now <6258>, and not from the beginning <0227>; even before <6440> the day <3117> when thou heardest <8085> them not; lest <6435> thou shouldest say <0559>, Behold <2009>, I knew <3045> them. 8 Yea <1571>, thou heardest <8085> not; yea <1571>, thou knewest <3045> not; yea <1571>, from that time <0227> [that] thine ear <0241> was not opened <6605>: for I knew <3045> that thou wouldest deal very <0898> treacherously <0898>, and wast called <7121> a transgressor <6586> from the womb <0990>. 9. For my name's <8034> sake <4616> will I defer <0748> mine anger <0639>, and for my praise <8416> will I refrain <2413> for thee, that I cut <3772> thee not off. 10 Behold <2009>, I have refined <6884> thee, but not with silver <3701>; I have chosen <0977> thee in the furnace <3564> of affliction <6040>. 11 For mine own sake <4616>, [even] for mine own sake <4616>, will I do <6213> [it]: for how <0349> should [my name] be polluted <2490>? and I will not give <5414> my glory <3519> unto another <0312>. 12 Hearken <8085> unto me, O Jacob <3290> and Israel <3478>, my called <7121>; I [am] he; I [am] the first <7223>, I also <0637> [am] the last <0314>. 13 Mine hand <3027> also <0637> hath laid the foundation <3245> of the earth <0776>, and my right <3225> hand <3225> hath spanned <2946> the heavens <8064>: [when] I call <7121> unto them, they stand <5975> up together <3162>. 14 All <3605> ye, assemble <6908> yourselves, and hear <8085>; which <4310> among them hath declared <5046> these <0428> [things]? The LORD <3068> hath loved <0157> him: he will do <6213> his pleasure <2656> on Babylon <0894>, and his arm <2220> [shall be on] the Chaldeans <3778>. 15 I, [even] I, have spoken <1696>; yea <0637>, I have called <7121> him: I have brought <0935> him, and he shall make his way <1870> prosperous <6743>. 16. Come <7126> ye near <7126> unto me, hear <8085> ye this <2063>; I have not spoken <1696> in secret <5643> from the beginning <7218>; from the time <6256> that it was, there <8033> [am] I: and now <6258> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, and his Spirit <7307>, hath sent <7971> me. 17 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, thy Redeemer <1350>, the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>; I [am] the LORD <3068> thy God <0430> which teacheth <3925> thee to profit <3276>, which leadeth <1869> thee by the way <1870> [that] thou shouldest go <3212>. 18 O that thou hadst hearkened <7181> to my commandments <4687>! then had thy peace <7965> been <1961> as a river <5104>, and thy righteousness <6666> as the waves <1530> of the sea <3220>: 19 Thy seed <2233> also had been <1961> as the sand <2344>, and the offspring <6631> of thy bowels <4578> like the gravel <4579> thereof; his name <8034> should not have been cut <3772> off nor <3808> destroyed <8045> from before <6440> me. 20 Go <3318> ye forth <3318> of Babylon <0894>, flee <1272> ye from the Chaldeans <3778>, with a voice <6963> of singing <7440> declare <5046> ye, tell <8085> this <2063>, utter <3318> it [even] to the end <7097> of the earth <0776>; say <0559> ye, The LORD <3068> hath redeemed <1350> his servant <5650> Jacob <3290>. 21 And they thirsted <6770> not [when] he led <3212> them through the deserts <2723>: he caused the waters <4325> to flow <5140> out of the rock <6697> for them: he clave <1234> the rock <6697> also, and the waters <4325> gushed <2100> out. 22 [There is] no <0369> peace <7965>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, unto the wicked <7563>. Isaiah 49 1. Listen <8085>, O isles <0339>, unto me; and hearken <7181>, ye people <3816>, from far <7350>; The LORD <3068> hath called <7121> me from the womb <0990>; from the bowels <4578> of my mother <0517> hath he made mention <2142> of my name <8034>. 2 And he hath made <7760> my mouth <6310> like a sharp <2299> sword <2719>; in the shadow <6738> of his hand <3027> hath he hid <2244> me, and made <7760> me a polished <1305> shaft <2671>; in his quiver <0827> hath he hid <5641> me; 3 And said <0559> unto me, Thou [art] my servant <5650>, O Israel <3478>, in whom <0834> I will be glorified <6286>. 4 Then I said <0559>, I have laboured <3021> in vain <7385>, I have spent <3615> my strength <3581> for nought <8414>, and in vain <1892>: [yet] surely <0403> my judgment <4941> [is] with the LORD <3068>, and my work <6468> with my God <0430>. 5 And now <6258>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068> that formed <3335> me from the womb <0990> [to be] his servant <5650>, to bring <7725> Jacob <3290> again <7725> to him, Though Israel <3478> be not gathered <0622>, yet shall I be glorious <3513> in the eyes <5869> of the LORD <3068>, and my God <0430> shall be my strength <5797>. 6 And he said <0559>, It is a light <7043> thing that thou shouldest be my servant <5650> to raise <6965> up the tribes <7626> of Jacob <3290>, and to restore <7725> the preserved <5336> of Israel <3478>: I will also give <5414> thee for a light <0216> to the Gentiles <1471>, that thou mayest be my salvation <3444> unto the end <7097> of the earth <0776>. 7. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, the Redeemer <1350> of Israel <3478>, [and] his Holy <6918> One, to him whom man <5315> despiseth <0960>, to him whom the nation <1471> abhorreth <8581>, to a servant <5650> of rulers <4910>, Kings <4428> shall see <7200> and arise <6965>, princes <8269> also shall worship <7812>, because <4616> of the LORD <3068> that is faithful <0539>, [and] the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, and he shall choose <0977> thee. 8 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, In an acceptable <7522> time <6256> have I heard <6030> thee, and in a day <3117> of salvation <3444> have I helped <5826> thee: and I will preserve <5341> thee, and give <5414> thee for a covenant <1285> of the people <5971>, to establish <6965> the earth <0776>, to cause to inherit <5157> the desolate <8076> heritages <5159>; 9 That thou mayest say <0559> to the prisoners <0631>, Go <3318> forth <3318>; to them that [are] in darkness <2822>, Shew <1540> yourselves. They shall feed <7462> in the ways <1870>, and their pastures <4830> [shall be] in all <3605> high <8203> places. 10 They shall not hunger <7456> nor <3808> thirst <6770>; neither <3808> shall the heat <8273> nor <3808> sun <8121> smite <5221> them: for he that hath mercy <7355> on them shall lead <5090> them, even by the springs <4002> of water <4325> shall he guide <5095> them. 11 And I will make <7760> all <3605> my mountains <2022> a way <1870>, and my highways <4546> shall be exalted <7311>. 12 Behold <2009>, these <0428> shall come <0935> from far <7350>: and, lo <2009>, these <0428> from the north <6828> and from the west <3220>; and these <0428> from the land <0776> of Sinim <5515>. 13. Sing <7442>, O heavens <8064>; and be joyful <1523>, O earth <0776>; and break <6476> forth into singing <7440>, O mountains <2022>: for the LORD <3068> hath comforted <5162> his people <5971>, and will have mercy <7355> upon his afflicted <6041>. 14 But Zion <6726> said <0559>, The LORD <3068> hath forsaken <5800> me, and my Lord <0136> hath forgotten <7913> me. 15 Can a woman <0802> forget <7911> her sucking <5764> child, that she should not have compassion <7355> on the son <1121> of her womb <0990>? yea <1571>, they may forget <7911>, yet will I not forget <7911> thee. 16 Behold <2005>, I have graven <2710> thee upon the palms <3709> of [my] hands <3709>; thy walls <2346> [are] continually <8548> before <5048> me. 17 Thy children <1121> shall make haste <4116>; thy destroyers <2040> and they that made thee waste <2717> shall go <3318> forth <3318> of thee. 18. Lift <5375> up thine eyes <5869> round <5439> about, and behold <7200>: all <3605> these gather <6908> themselves together, [and] come <0935> to thee. [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, thou shalt surely <3588> clothe <3847> thee with them all <3605>, as with an ornament <5716>, and bind <7194> them [on thee], as a bride <3618> [doeth]. 19 For thy waste <2723> and thy desolate <8074> places, and the land <0776> of thy destruction <2035>, shall even <3588> now <6258> be too narrow <3334> by reason of the inhabitants <3427>, and they that swallowed <1104> thee up shall be far <7368> away. 20 The children <1121> which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost <7923> the other, shall say <0559> again <5750> in thine ears <0241>, The place <4725> [is] too strait <6862> for me: give <5066> place <4725> to me that I may dwell <3427>. 21 Then shalt thou say <0559> in thine heart <3824>, Who <4310> hath begotten <3205> me these <0428>, seeing I have lost <7908> my children, and am desolate <1565>, a captive <1473>, and removing <5493> to and fro? and who <4310> hath brought <1431> up these <2007>? Behold <2005>, I was left <7604> alone <0905>; these <0428>, where <0375> [had] they [been]? 22 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, Behold <2009>, I will lift <5375> up mine hand <3027> to the Gentiles <1471>, and set <7311> up my standard <5251> to the people <5971>: and they shall bring <0935> thy sons <1121> in [their] arms <2684>, and thy daughters <1121> shall be carried <5375> upon [their] shoulders <3802>. 23 And kings <4428> shall be thy nursing <0539> fathers, and their queens <8282> thy nursing <3243> mothers: they shall bow <7812> down <7812> to thee with [their] face <0639> toward the earth <0776>, and lick <3897> up the dust <6083> of thy feet <7272>; and thou shalt know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>: for they shall not be ashamed <0954> that wait <6960> for me. 24. Shall the prey <4455> be taken <3947> from the mighty <1368>, or the lawful <6662> captive <7628> delivered <4422>? 25 But thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Even <1571> the captives <7628> of the mighty <1368> shall be taken <3947> away, and the prey <4455> of the terrible <6184> shall be delivered <4422>: for I will contend <7378> with him that contendeth <3401> with thee, and I will save <3467> thy children <1121>. 26 And I will feed <0398> them that oppress <3238> thee with their own flesh <1320>; and they shall be drunken <7937> with their own blood <1818>, as with sweet <6071> wine <6071>: and all <3605> flesh <1320> shall know <3045> that I the LORD <3068> [am] thy Saviour <3467> and thy Redeemer <1350>, the mighty <46> One of Jacob <3290>. Isaiah 50 1. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Where <0335> [is] the bill <5612> of your mother's <0517> divorcement <3748>, whom <0834> I have put <7971> away? or <0176> which <4310> of my creditors <5383> [is it] to whom <0834> I have sold <4376> you? Behold <2005>, for your iniquities <5771> have ye sold <4376> yourselves, and for your transgressions <6588> is your mother <0517> put <7971> away. 2 Wherefore <4069>, when I came <0935>, [was there] no <0369> man <0376>? when I called <7121>, [was there] none <0369> to answer <6030>? Is my hand <3027> shortened <7114> at all, that it cannot redeem <6304>? or have I no <0369> power <3581> to deliver <5337>? behold <2005>, at my rebuke <1606> I dry <2717> up the sea <3220>, I make <7760> the rivers <5103> a wilderness <4057>: their fish <1710> stinketh <0887>, because [there is] no <0369> water <4325>, and dieth <4191> for thirst <6772>. 3 I clothe <3847> the heavens <8064> with blackness <6940>, and I make <7760> sackcloth <8242> their covering <3682>. 4. The Lord <0136> GOD <3069> hath given <5414> me the tongue <3956> of the learned <3928>, that I should know <3045> how to speak <5790> a word <1697> in season to [him that is] weary <3287>: he wakeneth <5782> morning <1242> by morning <1242>, he wakeneth <5782> mine ear <0241> to hear <8085> as the learned <3928>. 5 The Lord <0136> GOD <3069> hath opened <6605> mine ear <0241>, and I was not rebellious <4784>, neither <3808> turned <5472> away back <0268>. 6 I gave <5414> my back <1458> to the smiters <5221>, and my cheeks <3895> to them that plucked <4803> off the hair: I hid <5641> not my face <6440> from shame <3639> and spitting <7536>. 7 For the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> will help <5826> me; therefore shall I not be confounded <3637>: therefore have I set <7760> my face <6440> like a flint <2496>, and I know <3045> that I shall not be ashamed <0954>. 8 [He is] near <7138> that justifieth <6663> me; who <4310> will contend <7378> with me? let us stand <5975> together <3162>: who <4310> [is] mine adversary? let him come <5066> near <5066> to me. 9 Behold <2005>, the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> will help <5826> me; who <4310> [is] he [that] shall condemn <7561> me? lo <2005>, they all <3605> shall wax old <1086> as a garment <0899>; the moth <6211> shall eat <0398> them up. 10. Who <4310> [is] among you that feareth <3373> the LORD <3068>, that obeyeth <8085> the voice <6963> of his servant <5650>, that walketh <1980> [in] darkness <2825>, and hath no <0369> light <5051>? let him trust <0982> in the name <8034> of the LORD <3068>, and stay <8172> upon his God <0430>. 11 Behold <2005>, all <3605> ye that kindle <6919> a fire <0784>, that compass <0247> [yourselves] about with sparks <2131>: walk <3212> in the light <0217> of your fire <0784>, and in the sparks <2131> [that] ye have kindled <1197>. This <2063> shall ye have <1961> of mine hand <3027>; ye shall lie <7901> down <7901> in sorrow <4620>. Isaiah 51 1. Hearken <8085> to me, ye that follow <7291> after <0310> righteousness <6664>, ye that seek <1245> the LORD <3068>: look <5027> unto the rock <6697> [whence] ye are hewn <2672>, and to the hole <4618> of the pit <0953> [whence] ye are digged <5365>. 2 Look <5027> unto Abraham <85> your father <1>, and unto Sarah <8283> [that] bare <2342> you: for I called <7121> him alone <0259>, and blessed <1288> him, and increased <7235> him. 3 For the LORD <3068> shall comfort <5162> Zion <6726>: he will comfort <5162> all <3605> her waste <2723> places; and he will make <7760> her wilderness <4057> like Eden <5731>, and her desert <6160> like the garden <1588> of the LORD <3068>; joy <8342> and gladness <8057> shall be found <4672> therein, thanksgiving <8426>, and the voice <6963> of melody <2172>. 4. Hearken <7181> unto me, my people <5971>; and give ear <0238> unto me, O my nation <3816>: for a law <8451> shall proceed <3318> from me, and I will make my judgment <4941> to rest <7280> for a light <0216> of the people <5971>. 5 My righteousness <6664> [is] near <7138>; my salvation <3468> is gone <3318> forth <3318>, and mine arms <2220> shall judge <8199> the people <5971>; the isles <0339> shall wait <6960> upon me, and on <0413> mine arm <2220> shall they trust <3176>. 6 Lift <5375> up your eyes <5869> to the heavens <8064>, and look <5027> upon the earth <0776> beneath <8478>: for the heavens <8064> shall vanish <4414> away like smoke <6227>, and the earth <0776> shall wax old <1086> like a garment <0899>, and they that dwell <3427> therein shall die <4191> in like <3644> manner <3654>: but my salvation <3444> shall be for ever <5769>, and my righteousness <6666> shall not be abolished <2865>. 7 Hearken <8085> unto me, ye that know <3045> righteousness <6664>, the people <5971> in whose heart <3820> [is] my law <8451>; fear <3372> ye not the reproach <2781> of men <0582>, neither <0408> be ye afraid <2865> of their revilings <1421>. 8 For the moth <6211> shall eat <0398> them up like a garment <0899>, and the worm <5580> shall eat <0398> them like wool <6785>: but my righteousness <6666> shall be for ever <5769>, and my salvation <3444> from generation <1755> to generation <1755>. 9. Awake <5782>, awake <5782>, put <3847> on strength <5797>, O arm <2220> of the LORD <3068>; awake <5782>, as in the ancient <6924> days <3117>, in the generations <1755> of old <5769>. [Art] thou not it that hath cut <2672> Rahab <7294>, [and] wounded <2490> the dragon <8577>? 10 [Art] thou not it which hath dried <2717> the sea <3220>, the waters <4325> of the great <7227> deep <8415>; that hath made <7760> the depths <4615> of the sea <3220> a way <1870> for the ransomed <1350> to pass <5674> over <5674>? 11 Therefore the redeemed <6299> of the LORD <3068> shall return <7725>, and come <0935> with singing <7440> unto Zion <6726>; and everlasting <5769> joy <8057> [shall be] upon their head <7218>: they shall obtain <5381> gladness <8057> and joy <8057>; [and] sorrow <3015> and mourning <0585> shall flee <5127> away. 12 I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth <5162> you: who <4310> [art] thou, that thou shouldest be afraid <3372> of a man <0582> [that] shall die <4191>, and of the son <1121> of man <0120> [which] shall be made <5414> [as] grass <2682>; 13 And forgettest <7911> the LORD <3068> thy maker <6213>, that hath stretched <5186> forth the heavens <8064>, and laid the foundations <3245> of the earth <0776>; and hast feared <6342> continually <8548> every <3605> day <3117> because <6440> of the fury <2534> of the oppressor <6693>, as if he were ready <3559> to destroy <7843>? and where <0346> [is] the fury <2534> of the oppressor <6693>? 14 The captive <6808> exile <6808> hasteneth <4116> that he may be loosed <6605>, and that he should not die <4191> in the pit <7845>, nor <3808> that his bread <3899> should fail <2637>. 15 But I [am] the LORD <3068> thy God <0430>, that divided <7280> the sea <3220>, whose waves <1530> roared <1993>: The LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> [is] his name <8034>. 16 And I have put <7760> my words <1697> in thy mouth <6310>, and I have covered <3680> thee in the shadow <6738> of mine hand <3027>, that I may plant <5193> the heavens <8064>, and lay the foundations <3245> of the earth <0776>, and say <0559> unto Zion <6726>, Thou [art] my people <5971>. 17. Awake <5782>, awake <5782>, stand <6965> up, O Jerusalem <3389>, which <0834> hast drunk <8354> at the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> the cup <3563> of his fury <2534>; thou hast drunken <8354> the dregs <6907> of the cup <3563> of trembling <8653>, [and] wrung <4680> [them] out. 18 [There is] none <0369> to guide <5095> her among all <3605> the sons <1121> [whom] she hath brought <3205> forth <3205>; neither <0369> [is there any] that taketh <2388> her by the hand <3027> of all <3605> the sons <1121> [that] she hath brought <1431> up. 19 These <2007> two <8147> [things] are come <7122> unto thee; who <4310> shall be sorry <5110> for thee? desolation <7701>, and destruction <7667>, and the famine <7458>, and the sword <2719>: by whom <4310> shall I comfort <5162> thee? 20 Thy sons <1121> have fainted <5968>, they lie <7901> at the head <7218> of all <3605> the streets <2351>, as a wild <8377> bull <8377> in a net <4364>: they are full <4392> of the fury <2534> of the LORD <3068>, the rebuke <1606> of thy God <0430>. 21 Therefore <3651> hear <8085> now <4994> this <2063>, thou afflicted <6041>, and drunken <7937>, but not with wine <3196>: 22 Thus <3541> saith <0559> thy Lord <0113> the LORD <3068>, and thy God <0430> [that] pleadeth <7378> the cause of his people <5971>, Behold <2009>, I have taken <3947> out of thine hand <3027> the cup <3563> of trembling <8653>, [even] the dregs <6907> of the cup <3563> of my fury <2534>; thou shalt no <3808> more <3254> drink <8354> it again <5750>: 23 But I will put <7760> it into the hand <3027> of them that afflict <3013> thee; which <0834> have said <0559> to thy soul <5315>, Bow <7812> down <7812>, that we may go <5674> over <5674>: and thou hast laid <7760> thy body <1460> as the ground <0776>, and as the street <2351>, to them that went <5674> over <5674>. Isaiah 52 1. Awake <5782>, awake <5782>; put <3847> on thy strength <5797>, O Zion <6726>; put <3847> on thy beautiful <8597> garments <0899>, O Jerusalem <3389>, the holy <6944> city <5892>: for henceforth <6258> there shall no <3808> more come <0935> into thee the uncircumcised <6189> and the unclean <2931>. 2 Shake <5287> thyself from the dust <6083>; arise <6965>, [and] sit <3427> down, O Jerusalem <3389>: loose <6605> thyself from the bands <4147> of thy neck <6677>, O captive <7628> daughter <1323> of Zion <6726>. 3 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Ye have sold <4376> yourselves for nought <2600>; and ye shall be redeemed <1350> without <3808> money <3701>. 4 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, My people <5971> went <3381> down <3381> aforetime <7223> into Egypt <4714> to sojourn <1481> there <8033>; and the Assyrian <0804> oppressed <6231> them without <0657> cause <0657>. 5 Now <6258> therefore, what <4100> have I here <6311>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, that my people <5971> is taken <3947> away for nought <2600>? they that rule <4910> over them make them to howl <3213>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>; and my name <8034> continually <8548> every <3605> day <3117> [is] blasphemed <5006>. 6 Therefore <3651> my people <5971> shall know <3045> my name <8034>: therefore <3651> [they shall know] in that day <3117> that I [am] he that doth speak <1696>: behold <2009>, [it is] I. 7. How <4100> beautiful <4998> upon the mountains <2022> are the feet <7272> of him that bringeth <1319> good <2896> tidings <1319>, that publisheth <8085> peace <7965>; that bringeth <1319> good <2896> tidings <1319> of good <2896>, that publisheth <8085> salvation <3444>; that saith <0559> unto Zion <6726>, Thy God <0430> reigneth <4427>! 8 Thy watchmen <6822> shall lift <5375> up the voice <6963>; with the voice <6963> together <3162> shall they sing <7442>: for they shall see <7200> eye <5869> to eye <5869>, when the LORD <3068> shall bring <7725> again <7725> Zion <6726>. 9 Break <6476> forth into joy, sing <7442> together <3162>, ye waste <2723> places of Jerusalem <3389>: for the LORD <3068> hath comforted <5162> his people <5971>, he hath redeemed <1350> Jerusalem <3389>. 10 The LORD <3068> hath made bare <2834> his holy <6944> arm <2220> in the eyes <5869> of all <3605> the nations <1471>; and all <3605> the ends <0657> of the earth <0776> shall see <7200> the salvation <3444> of our God <0430>. 11 Depart <5493> ye, depart <5493> ye, go <3318> ye out from thence <8033>, touch <5060> no <0408> unclean <2931> [thing]; go <3318> ye out of the midst <8432> of her; be ye clean <1305>, that bear <5375> the vessels <3627> of the LORD <3068>. 12 For ye shall not go <3318> out with haste <2649>, nor <3808> go <3212> by flight <4499>: for the LORD <3068> will go <1980> before <6440> you; and the God <0430> of Israel <3478> [will be] your rereward <0622>. 13. Behold <2009>, my servant <5650> shall deal prudently <7919>, he shall be exalted <7311> and extolled <5375>, and be very <3966> high <1361>. 14 As many <7227> were astonied <8074> at thee; his visage <4758> was so marred <4893> more than any man <0376>, and his form <8389> more than the sons <1121> of men <0120>: 15 So <3651> shall he sprinkle <5137> many <7227> nations <1471>; the kings <4428> shall shut <7092> their mouths <6310> at him: for [that] which <0834> had not been told <5608> them shall they see <7200>; and [that] which <0834> they had not heard <8085> shall they consider <0995>. Isaiah 53 1. Who <4310> hath believed <0539> our report <8052>? and to whom <4310> is the arm <2220> of the LORD <3068> revealed <1540>? 2 For he shall grow <5927> up before <6440> him as a tender <3126> plant, and as a root <8328> out of a dry <6723> ground <0776>: he hath no <3808> form <8389> nor <3808> comeliness <1926>; and when we shall see <7200> him, [there is] no <3808> beauty <4758> that we should desire <2530> him. 3 He is despised <0959> and rejected <2310> of men <0376>; a man <0376> of sorrows <4341>, and acquainted <3045> with grief <2483>: and we hid <5641> as it were [our] faces <6440> from him; he was despised <0959>, and we esteemed him not. 4. Surely <0403> he hath borne <5375> our griefs <2483>, and carried <5445> our sorrows <4341>: yet we did esteem <2803> him stricken <5060>, smitten <5221> of God <0430>, and afflicted <6031>. 5 But he [was] wounded <2490> for our transgressions <6588>, [he was] bruised <1792> for our iniquities <5771>: the chastisement <4148> of our peace <7965> [was] upon him; and with his stripes <2250> we are healed <7495>. 6 All <3605> we like sheep <6629> have gone <8582> astray <8582>; we have turned <6437> every <0376> one <0376> to his own way <1870>; and the LORD <3068> hath laid <6293> on him the iniquity <5771> of us all <3605>. 7 He was oppressed <5065>, and he was afflicted <6031>, yet he opened <6605> not his mouth <6310>: he is brought <2986> as a lamb <7716> to the slaughter <2875>, and as a sheep <7353> before <6440> her shearers <1494> is dumb <0481>, so he openeth <6605> not his mouth <6310>. 8 He was taken <3947> from prison <6115> and from judgment <4941>: and who <4310> shall declare <7878> his generation <1755>? for he was cut <1504> off out of the land <0776> of the living <2416>: for the transgression <6588> of my people <5971> was he stricken <5061>. 9 And he made <5414> his grave <6913> with the wicked <7563>, and with the rich <6223> in his death <4194>; because <5921> he had done <6213> no <3808> violence <2555>, neither <3808> [was any] deceit <4820> in his mouth <6310>. 10. Yet it pleased <2654> the LORD <3068> to bruise <1792> him; he hath put [him] to grief <2470>: when <0518> thou shalt make <7760> his soul <5315> an offering for sin <0817>, he shall see <7200> [his] seed <2233>, he shall prolong <0748> [his] days <3117>, and the pleasure <2656> of the LORD <3068> shall prosper <6743> in his hand <3027>. 11 He shall see <7200> of the travail <5999> of his soul <5315>, [and] shall be satisfied <7646>: by his knowledge <1847> shall my righteous <6662> servant <5650> justify <6663> many <7227>; for he shall bear <5445> their iniquities <5771>. 12 Therefore <3651> will I divide <5312> him [a portion] with the great <7227>, and he shall divide <5312> the spoil <7998> with the strong <6099>; because he hath poured <6168> out his soul <5315> unto death <4194>: and he was numbered <4487> with the transgressors <6586>; and he bare <5375> the sin <2399> of many <7227>, and made intercession <6293> for the transgressors <6586>. Isaiah 54 1. Sing <7442>, O barren <6135>, thou [that] didst not bear <5375>; break <6476> forth into singing <7440>, and cry <6670> aloud <6670>, thou [that] didst not travail <2342> with child: for more <7227> [are] the children <1121> of the desolate <8074> than the children <1121> of the married <1166> wife, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>. 2 Enlarge <7337> the place <4725> of thy tent <0168>, and let them stretch <5186> forth the curtains <3407> of thine habitations <4908>: spare <2820> not, lengthen <0748> thy cords <4340>, and strengthen <2388> thy stakes <3489>; 3 For thou shalt break <6555> forth on the right <3225> hand <3225> and on the left <8040>; and thy seed <2233> shall inherit <3423> the Gentiles <1471>, and make the desolate <8077> cities <5892> to be inhabited <3427>. 4 Fear <3372> not; for thou shalt not be ashamed <0954>: neither <0408> be thou confounded <3637>; for thou shalt not be put to shame <2659>: for thou shalt forget <7911> the shame <1322> of thy youth <5934>, and shalt not remember <2142> the reproach <2781> of thy widowhood <0491> any more <5750>. 5 For thy Maker <6213> [is] thine husband <1167>; the LORD <3068> of hosts <6635> [is] his name <8034>; and thy Redeemer <1350> the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>; The God <0430> of the whole <3605> earth <0776> shall he be called <7121>. 6. For the LORD <3068> hath called <7121> thee as a woman <0802> forsaken <5800> and grieved <6087> in spirit <7307>, and a wife <0802> of youth <5271>, when <3588> thou wast refused <3988>, saith <0559> thy God <0430>. 7 For a small <6996> moment <7281> have I forsaken <5800> thee; but with great <1419> mercies <7356> will I gather <6908> thee. 8 In a little <8241> wrath <7110> I hid <5641> my face <6440> from thee for a moment <7281>; but with everlasting <5769> kindness <2617> will I have mercy <7355> on thee, saith <0559> the LORD <3068> thy Redeemer <1350>. 9 For this <2063> [is as] the waters <4325> of Noah <5146> unto me: for [as] I have sworn <7650> that the waters <4325> of Noah <5146> should no more <5750> go <5674> over <5674> the earth <0776>; so <3651> have I sworn <7650> that I would not be wroth <7107> with thee, nor rebuke <1605> thee. 10 For the mountains <2022> shall depart <4185>, and the hills <1389> be removed <4131>; but my kindness <2617> shall not depart <4185> from thee, neither <3808> shall the covenant <1285> of my peace <7965> be removed <4131>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068> that hath mercy <7355> on thee. 11. O thou afflicted <6041>, tossed with tempest <5590>, [and] not comforted <5162>, behold <2009>, I will lay <7257> thy stones <68> with fair <6320> colours <6320>, and lay thy foundations <3245> with sapphires <5601>. 12 And I will make <7760> thy windows <8121> of agates <3539>, and thy gates <8179> of carbuncles <68>, and all <3605> thy borders <1366> of pleasant <2656> stones <68>. 13 And all <3605> thy children <1121> [shall be] taught <3928> of the LORD <3068>; and great <7227> [shall be] the peace <7965> of thy children <1121>. 14 In righteousness <6666> shalt thou be established <3559>: thou shalt be far <7368> from oppression <6233>; for thou shalt not fear <3372>: and from terror <4288>; for it shall not come <7126> near <7126> thee. 15 Behold <2005>, they shall surely gather <1481> together, [but] not by me: whosoever <4310> shall gather <1481> together against <5921> thee shall fall <5307> for thy sake <4616>. 16 Behold <2005>, I have created <1254> the smith <2796> that bloweth <5301> the coals <6352> in the fire <0784>, and that bringeth <3318> forth <4161> an instrument <3627> for his work <4639>; and I have created <1254> the waster <7843> to destroy <2254>. 17 No <3808> weapon <3627> that is formed <3335> against <5921> thee shall prosper <6743>; and every <3605> tongue <3956> [that] shall rise <6965> against thee in judgment <4941> thou shalt condemn <7561>. This <2063> [is] the heritage <5159> of the servants <5650> of the LORD <3068>, and their righteousness <6666> [is] of me, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>. Isaiah 55 1. Ho <1945>, every <3605> one that thirsteth <6771>, come <3212> ye to the waters <4325>, and he that hath no <0369> money <3701>; come <3212> ye, buy <7666>, and eat <0398>; yea, come <3212>, buy <7666> wine <3196> and milk <2461> without <3808> money <3701> and without <3808> price <4242>. 2 Wherefore <4100> do ye spend <8254> money <3701> for [that which <0834> is] not bread <3899>? and your labour <3018> for [that which <0834>] satisfieth <7654> not? hearken <8085> diligently unto me, and eat <0398> ye [that which <0834> is] good <2896>, and let your soul <5315> delight <6026> itself in fatness <1880>. 3 Incline <5186> your ear <0241>, and come <3212> unto me: hear <8085>, and your soul <5315> shall live <2421>; and I will make <3772> an everlasting <5769> covenant <1285> with you, [even] the sure <0539> mercies <2617> of David <1732>. 4 Behold <2005>, I have given <5414> him [for] a witness <5707> to the people <3816>, a leader <5057> and commander <6680> to the people <3816>. 5 Behold <2005>, thou shalt call <7121> a nation <1471> [that] thou knowest <3045> not, and nations <1471> [that] knew <3045> not thee shall run <7323> unto thee because <4616> of the LORD <3068> thy God <0430>, and for the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>; for he hath glorified <6286> thee. 6. Seek <1875> ye the LORD <3068> while he may be found <4672>, call <7121> ye upon him while he is near <7138>: 7 Let the wicked <7563> forsake <5800> his way <1870>, and the unrighteous <0205> man <0376> his thoughts <4284>: and let him return <7725> unto the LORD <3068>, and he will have mercy <7355> upon him; and to our God <0430>, for he will abundantly <7235> pardon <5545>. 8 For my thoughts <4284> [are] not your thoughts <4284>, neither <3808> [are] your ways <1870> my ways <1870>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>. 9 For [as] the heavens <8064> are higher <1361> than the earth <0776>, so <3651> are my ways <1870> higher <1361> than your ways <1870>, and my thoughts <4284> than your thoughts <4284>. 10 For as the rain <1653> cometh <3381> down <3381>, and the snow <7950> from heaven <8064>, and returneth <7725> not thither <8033>, but watereth <7301> the earth <0776>, and maketh it bring <3205> forth <3205> and bud <6779>, that it may give <5414> seed <2233> to the sower <2232>, and bread <3899> to the eater <0398>: 11 So <3651> shall my word <1697> be that goeth <3318> forth <3318> out of my mouth <6310>: it shall not return <7725> unto me void <7387>, but it shall accomplish <6213> that which <0834> I please <2654>, and it shall prosper <6743> [in the thing] whereto <0834> I sent <7971> it. 12 For ye shall go <3318> out with joy <8057>, and be led <2986> forth <2986> with peace <7965>: the mountains <2022> and the hills <1389> shall break <6476> forth before <6440> you into singing <7440>, and all <3605> the trees <6086> of the field <7704> shall clap <4222> [their] hands <3709>. 13 Instead <8478> of the thorn <5285> shall come <5927> up the fir <1265> tree, and instead <8478> of the brier <5636> shall come <5927> up the myrtle <1918> tree: and it shall be to the LORD <3068> for a name <8034>, for an everlasting <5769> sign <0226> [that] shall not be cut <3772> off. Isaiah 56 1. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Keep <8104> ye judgment <4941>, and do <6213> justice <6666>: for my salvation <3444> [is] near <7138> to come <0935>, and my righteousness <6666> to be revealed <1540>. 2 Blessed <0835> [is] the man <0582> [that] doeth <6213> this <2063>, and the son <1121> of man <0120> [that] layeth hold <2388> on it; that keepeth <8104> the sabbath <7676> from polluting <2490> it, and keepeth <8104> his hand <3027> from doing <6213> any <3605> evil <7451>. 3. Neither <0408> let the son <1121> of the stranger <5236>, that hath joined <3867> himself to the LORD <3068>, speak <0559>, saying <0559>, The LORD <3068> hath utterly separated <0914> me from his people <5971>: neither <0408> let the eunuch <5631> say <0559>, Behold <2005>, I [am] a dry <3002> tree <6086>. 4 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068> unto the eunuchs <5631> that keep <8104> my sabbaths <7676>, and choose <0977> [the things] that please <2654> me, and take <2388> hold <2388> of my covenant <1285>; 5 Even unto them will I give <5414> in mine house <1004> and within my walls <2346> a place <3027> and a name <8034> better <2896> than of sons <1121> and of daughters <1121>: I will give <5414> them an everlasting <5769> name <8034>, that shall not be cut <3772> off. 6 Also the sons <1121> of the stranger <5236>, that join <3867> themselves to the LORD <3068>, to serve <8334> him, and to love <0157> the name <8034> of the LORD <3068>, to be his servants <5650>, every <3605> one that keepeth <8104> the sabbath <7676> from polluting <2490> it, and taketh <2388> hold <2388> of my covenant <1285>; 7 Even them will I bring <0935> to my holy <6944> mountain <2022>, and make them joyful <8055> in my house <1004> of prayer <8605>: their burnt <5930> offerings and their sacrifices <2077> [shall be] accepted <7522> upon mine altar <4196>; for mine house <1004> shall be called <7121> an house <1004> of prayer <8605> for all <3605> people <5971>. 8 The Lord <0136> GOD <3069> which gathereth <6908> the outcasts <1760> of Israel <3478> saith <5002>, Yet <5750> will I gather <6908> [others] to him, beside those that are gathered <6908> unto him. 9. All <3605> ye beasts <2416> of the field <7704>, come <0857> to devour <0398>, [yea], all <3605> ye beasts <2416> in the forest <3293>. 10 His watchmen <6822> [are] blind <5787>: they are all <3605> ignorant, they [are] all <3605> dumb <0483> dogs <3611>, they cannot bark <5024>; sleeping <1957>, lying <7901> down <7901>, loving <0157> to slumber <5123>. 11 Yea, [they are] greedy dogs <3611> [which] can <3045> never <3808> have <3045> enough <7654>, and they [are] shepherds <7462> [that] cannot understand <0995>: they all <3605> look <6437> to their own way <1870>, every <0376> one <0376> for his gain <1214>, from his quarter <7098>. 12 Come <0857> ye, [say they], I will fetch <3947> wine <3196>, and we will fill <4390> ourselves with strong drink <7941>; and to morrow <4279> shall be as this <2088> day <3117>, [and] much <3966> more <3499> abundant <1419>. Isaiah 57 1. The righteous <6662> perisheth <6>, and no <0369> man <0376> layeth <7760> [it] to heart <3820>: and merciful <2617> men <0582> [are] taken <0622> away, none <0369> considering <0995> that the righteous <6662> is taken <0622> away from the evil <7451> [to come]. 2 He shall enter <0935> into peace <7965>: they shall rest <5117> in their beds <4904>, [each one] walking <1980> [in] his uprightness <5228>. 3. But draw near <7126> hither, ye sons <1121> of the sorceress <6049>, the seed <2233> of the adulterer <5003> and the whore <2181>. 4 Against <5921> whom <4310> do ye sport <6026> yourselves? against <5921> whom <4310> make ye a wide <7337> mouth <6310>, [and] draw <0748> out the tongue <3956>? [are] ye not children <3206> of transgression <6588>, a seed <2233> of falsehood <8267>, 5 Enflaming <2552> yourselves with idols <0410> under <8478> every <3605> green <7488> tree <6086>, slaying <7819> the children <3206> in the valleys <5158> under <8478> the clifts <5585> of the rocks <5553>? 6 Among the smooth <2511> [stones] of the stream <5158> [is] thy portion <2506>; they, they [are] thy lot <1486>: even <1571> to them hast thou poured <8210> a drink <5262> offering, thou hast offered <5927> a meat offering <4503>. Should I receive <5162> comfort <5162> in these <0428>? 7 Upon a lofty <1364> and high <5375> mountain <2022> hast thou set <7760> thy bed <4904>: even <1571> thither <8033> wentest <5927> thou up to offer <2076> sacrifice <2077>. 8 Behind <0310> the doors <1817> also and the posts <4201> hast thou set <7760> up thy remembrance <2146>: for thou hast discovered <1540> [thyself to another] than me, and art gone <5927> up; thou hast enlarged <7337> thy bed <4904>, and made <3772> thee [a covenant] with them; thou lovedst <0157> their bed <4904> where <3027> thou sawest <2372> [it]. 9 And thou wentest <7788> to the king <4428> with ointment <8081>, and didst increase <7235> thy perfumes <7547>, and didst send <7971> thy messengers <6735> far <7350> off, and didst debase <8213> [thyself even] unto hell <7585>. 10 Thou art wearied <3021> in the greatness <7230> of thy way <1870>; [yet] saidst <0559> thou not, There is no hope <2976>: thou hast found <4672> the life <2416> of thine hand <3027>; therefore thou wast not grieved <2470>. 11 And of whom <4310> hast thou been afraid <1672> or feared <3372>, that thou hast lied <3576>, and hast not remembered <2142> me, nor <3808> laid <7760> [it] to thy heart <3820>? have not I held <2814> my peace <2814> even of old <5769>, and thou fearest <3372> me not? 12 I will declare <5046> thy righteousness <6666>, and thy works <4639>; for they shall not profit <3276> thee. 13. When thou criest <2199>, let thy companies deliver <5337> thee; but the wind <7307> shall carry <5375> them all <3605> away; vanity <1892> shall take <3947> [them]: but he that putteth his trust <2620> in me shall possess <5157> the land <0776>, and shall inherit <3423> my holy <6944> mountain <2022>; 14 And shall say <0559>, Cast <5549> ye up, cast <5549> ye up, prepare <6437> the way <1870>, take <7311> up the stumblingblock <4383> out of the way <1870> of my people <5971>. 15 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the high <7311> and lofty <5375> One that inhabiteth <7931> eternity <5703>, whose name <8034> [is] Holy <6918>; I dwell <7931> in the high <4791> and holy <6918> [place], with him also [that is] of a contrite <1793> and humble <8217> spirit <7307>, to revive <2421> the spirit <7307> of the humble <8217>, and to revive <2421> the heart <3820> of the contrite <1792> ones. 16 For I will not contend <7378> for ever <5769>, neither <3808> will I be always <5331> wroth <7107>: for the spirit <7307> should fail <5848> before <6440> me, and the souls <5397> [which] I have made <6213>. 17. For the iniquity <5771> of his covetousness <1215> was I wroth <7107>, and smote <5221> him: I hid <5641> me, and was wroth <7107>, and he went <3212> on frowardly <7726> in the way <1870> of his heart <3820>. 18 I have seen <7200> his ways <1870>, and will heal <7495> him: I will lead <5148> him also, and restore <7999> comforts <5150> unto him and to his mourners <57>. 19 I create <1254> the fruit <5108> of the lips <8193>; Peace <7965>, peace <7965> to [him that is] far <7350> off, and to [him that is] near <7138>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; and I will heal <7495> him. 20 But the wicked <7563> [are] like the troubled <1644> sea <3220>, when <3588> it cannot rest <8252>, whose waters <4325> cast <1644> up mire <7516> and dirt <2916>. 21 [There is] no <0369> peace <7965>, saith <0559> my God <0430>, to the wicked <7563>. Isaiah 58 1. Cry <7121> aloud <1627>, spare <2820> not, lift <7311> up thy voice <6963> like a trumpet <7782>, and shew <5046> my people <5971> their transgression <6588>, and the house <1004> of Jacob <3290> their sins <2403>. 2 Yet they seek <1875> me daily <3117>, and delight <2654> to know <1847> my ways <1870>, as a nation <1471> that did <6213> righteousness <6666>, and forsook <5800> not the ordinance <4941> of their God <0430>: they ask <7592> of me the ordinances <4941> of justice <6664>; they take delight <2654> in approaching <7132> to God <0430>. 3. Wherefore <4100> have we fasted <6684>, [say they], and thou seest <7200> not? [wherefore] have we afflicted <6031> our soul <5315>, and thou takest no <3808> knowledge <3045>? Behold <2005>, in the day <3117> of your fast <6685> ye find <4672> pleasure <2656>, and exact <5065> all <3605> your labours <6092>. 4 Behold <2005>, ye fast <6684> for strife <7379> and debate <4683>, and to smite <5221> with the fist <0106> of wickedness <7562>: ye shall not fast <6684> as [ye do this] day <3117>, to make your voice <6963> to be heard <8085> on high <4791>. 5 Is it such <2088> a fast <6685> that I have chosen <0977>? a day <3117> for a man <0120> to afflict <6031> his soul <5315>? [is it] to bow <3721> down his head <7218> as a bulrush <0100>, and to spread <3331> sackcloth <8242> and ashes <0665> [under him]? wilt thou call <7121> this <2088> a fast <6685>, and an acceptable <7522> day <3117> to the LORD <3068>? 6 [Is] not this <2088> the fast <6685> that I have chosen <0977>? to loose <6605> the bands <2784> of wickedness <7562>, to undo <5425> the heavy <4133> burdens <92>, and to let the oppressed <7533> go <7971> free <2670>, and that ye break <5423> every <3605> yoke <4133>? 7 [Is it] not to deal <6536> thy bread <3899> to the hungry <7456>, and that thou bring <0935> the poor <6041> that are cast <4788> out to thy house <1004>? when <3588> thou seest <7200> the naked <6174>, that thou cover <3680> him; and that thou hide <5956> not thyself from thine own flesh <1320>? 8. Then <0227> shall thy light <0216> break <1234> forth as the morning <7837>, and thine health <0724> shall spring <6779> forth speedily <4120>: and thy righteousness <6664> shall go <1980> before <6440> thee; the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> shall be thy rereward <0622>. 9 Then <0227> shalt thou call <7121>, and the LORD <3068> shall answer <6030>; thou shalt cry <7768>, and he shall say <0559>, Here <2009> I [am]. If thou take <5493> away <5493> from the midst <8432> of thee the yoke <4133>, the putting <7971> forth <7971> of the finger <0676>, and speaking <1696> vanity <0205>; 10 And [if] thou draw <6329> out thy soul <5315> to the hungry <7456>, and satisfy <7646> the afflicted <6031> soul <5315>; then shall thy light <0216> rise <2224> in obscurity <2822>, and thy darkness <0653> [be] as the noonday <6672>: 11 And the LORD <3068> shall guide <5148> thee continually <8548>, and satisfy <7646> thy soul <5315> in drought <6710>, and make fat <2502> thy bones <6106>: and thou shalt be like a watered <7302> garden <1588>, and like a spring <4161> of water <4325>, whose <0834> waters <4325> fail <3576> not. 12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build <1129> the old <5769> waste <2723> places: thou shalt raise <6965> up the foundations <4146> of many generations <1755>; and thou shalt be called <7121>, The repairer <1443> of the breach <6556>, The restorer <7725> of paths <5410> to dwell <3427> in. 13. If <0518> thou turn <7725> away thy foot <7272> from the sabbath <7676>, [from] doing <6213> thy pleasure <2656> on my holy <6944> day <3117>; and call <7121> the sabbath <7676> a delight <6027>, the holy <6918> of the LORD <3068>, honourable <3513>; and shalt honour <3513> him, not doing <6213> thine own ways <1870>, nor finding <4672> thine own pleasure <2656>, nor speaking <1696> [thine own] words <1697>: 14 Then <0227> shalt thou delight <6026> thyself in the LORD <3068>; and I will cause thee to ride <7392> upon the high <1116> places of the earth <0776>, and feed <0398> thee with the heritage <5159> of Jacob <3290> thy father <1>: for the mouth <6310> of the LORD <3068> hath spoken <1696> [it]. Isaiah 59 1. Behold <2005>, the LORD'S <3068> hand <3027> is not shortened <7114>, that it cannot <3808> save <3467>; neither <3808> his ear <0241> heavy <3513>, that it cannot <3808> hear <8085>: 2 But your iniquities <5771> have separated <0914> between <0996> you and your God <0430>, and your sins <2403> have hid <5641> [his] face <6440> from you, that he will not hear <8085>. 3 For your hands <3709> are defiled <1351> with blood <1818>, and your fingers <0676> with iniquity <5771>; your lips <8193> have spoken <1696> lies <8267>, your tongue <3956> hath muttered <1897> perverseness <5766>. 4 None <0369> calleth <7121> for justice <6664>, nor <0369> [any] pleadeth <8199> for truth <0530>: they trust <0982> in vanity <8414>, and speak <1696> lies <7723>; they conceive <2029> mischief <5999>, and bring <3205> forth <3205> iniquity <0205>. 5 They hatch <1234> cockatrice <6848>' eggs <1000>, and weave <0707> the spider's <5908> web <6980>: he that eateth <0398> of their eggs <1000> dieth <4191>, and that which is crushed <2116> breaketh <1234> out into a viper <0660>. 6 Their webs <6980> shall not become <1961> garments <0899>, neither <3808> shall they cover <3680> themselves with their works <4639>: their works <4639> [are] works <4639> of iniquity <0205>, and the act <6467> of violence <2555> [is] in their hands <3709>. 7 Their feet <7272> run <7323> to evil <7451>, and they make haste <4116> to shed <8210> innocent <5355> blood <1818>: their thoughts <4284> [are] thoughts <4284> of iniquity <0205>; wasting <7701> and destruction <7667> [are] in their paths <4546>. 8 The way <1870> of peace <7965> they know <3045> not; and [there is] no <0369> judgment <4941> in their goings <4570>: they have made them crooked <6140> paths <5410>: whosoever <3605> goeth <1869> therein shall not know <3045> peace <7965>. 9. Therefore is judgment <4941> far <7368> from us, neither <3808> doth justice <6666> overtake <5381> us: we wait <6960> for light <0216>, but behold <2009> obscurity <2822>; for brightness <5054>, [but] we walk <1980> in darkness <0653>. 10 We grope <1659> for the wall <7023> like the blind <5787>, and we grope <1659> as if [we had] no <0369> eyes <5869>: we stumble <3782> at noonday <6672> as in the night <5399>; [we are] in desolate <0820> places as dead <4191> [men]. 11 We roar <1993> all <3605> like bears <1677>, and mourn <1897> sore like doves <3123>: we look <6960> for judgment <4941>, but [there is] none <0369>; for salvation <3444>, [but] it is far <7368> off from us. 12 For our transgressions <6588> are multiplied <7231> before <5048> thee, and our sins <2403> testify <6030> against us: for our transgressions <6588> [are] with us; and [as for] our iniquities <5771>, we know <3045> them; 13 In transgressing <6586> and lying <3584> against the LORD <3068>, and departing <5253> away from our God <0430>, speaking <1696> oppression <6233> and revolt <5627>, conceiving <2030> and uttering <1897> from the heart <3820> words <1697> of falsehood <8267>. 14 And judgment <4941> is turned <5253> away backward <0268>, and justice <6666> standeth <5975> afar <7350> off: for truth <0571> is fallen <3782> in the street <7339>, and equity <5229> cannot enter <0935>. 15 Yea, truth <0571> faileth <5737>; and he [that] departeth <5493> from evil <7451> maketh himself a prey <7997>: and the LORD <3068> saw <7200> [it], and it displeased him that [there was] no <0369> judgment <4941>. 16. And he saw <7200> that [there was] no <0369> man <0376>, and wondered <8074> that [there was] no <0369> intercessor <6293>: therefore his arm <2220> brought <3467> salvation <3467> unto him; and his righteousness <6666>, it sustained <5564> him. 17 For he put <3847> on righteousness <6666> as a breastplate <8302>, and an helmet <3553> of salvation <3444> upon his head <7218>; and he put <3847> on the garments <0899> of vengeance <5359> [for] clothing <8516>, and was clad <5844> with zeal <7068> as a cloke <4598>. 18 According <5921> to [their] deeds <1578>, accordingly <5922> he will repay <7999>, fury <2534> to his adversaries <6862>, recompence <1576> to his enemies <0341>; to the islands <0339> he will repay <7999> recompence <1576>. 19 So shall they fear <3372> the name <8034> of the LORD <3068> from the west <4628>, and his glory <3519> from the rising <4217> of the sun <8121>. When <3588> the enemy <6862> shall come <0935> in like a flood <5104>, the Spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068> shall lift <5127> up a standard <5127> against him. 20 And the Redeemer <1350> shall come <0935> to Zion <6726>, and unto them that turn <7725> from transgression <6588> in Jacob <3290>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>. 21 As for me, this <2063> [is] my covenant <1285> with them, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; My spirit <7307> that [is] upon thee, and my words <1697> which <0834> I have put <7760> in thy mouth <6310>, shall not depart <4185> out of thy mouth <6310>, nor out of the mouth <6310> of thy seed <2233>, nor out of the mouth <6310> of thy seed's <2233> seed <2233>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, from henceforth <3254> and for ever <5769>. Isaiah 60 1. Arise <6965>, shine <0215>; for thy light <0216> is come <0935>, and the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> is risen <2224> upon thee. 2 For, behold <2009>, the darkness <2822> shall cover <3680> the earth <0776>, and gross <6205> darkness <6205> the people <3816>: but the LORD <3068> shall arise <2224> upon thee, and his glory <3519> shall be seen <7200> upon thee. 3 And the Gentiles <1471> shall come <1980> to thy light <0216>, and kings <4428> to the brightness <5051> of thy rising <2225>. 4 Lift <5375> up thine eyes <5869> round <5439> about, and see <7200>: all <3605> they gather <6908> themselves together, they come <0935> to thee: thy sons <1121> shall come <0935> from far <7350>, and thy daughters <1121> shall be nursed <0539> at <5921> [thy] side <6654>. 5 Then <0227> thou shalt see, and flow <5102> together, and thine heart <3824> shall fear <6342>, and be enlarged <7337>; because <3588> the abundance <1995> of the sea <3220> shall be converted <2015> unto thee, the forces <2428> of the Gentiles <1471> shall come <0935> unto thee. 6 The multitude <8229> of camels <1581> shall cover <3680> thee, the dromedaries <1070> of Midian <4080> and Ephah <5891>; all <3605> they from Sheba <7614> shall come <0935>: they shall bring <5375> gold <2091> and incense <3828>; and they shall shew <1319> forth the praises <8416> of the LORD <3068>. 7 All <3605> the flocks <6629> of Kedar <6938> shall be gathered <6908> together unto thee, the rams <0352> of Nebaioth <5032> shall minister <8334> unto thee: they shall come <5927> up with acceptance <7522> on <5921> mine altar <4196>, and I will glorify <6286> the house <1004> of my glory <8597>. 8 Who <4310> [are] these <0428> [that] fly <5774> as a cloud <5645>, and as the doves <3123> to their windows <0699>? 9. Surely <3588> the isles <0339> shall wait <6960> for me, and the ships <0591> of Tarshish <8659> first <7223>, to bring <0935> thy sons <1121> from far <7350>, their silver <3701> and their gold <2091> with them, unto the name <8034> of the LORD <3068> thy God <0430>, and to the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>, because <3588> he hath glorified <6286> thee. 10 And the sons <1121> of strangers <5236> shall build <1129> up thy walls <2346>, and their kings <4428> shall minister <8334> unto thee: for in my wrath <7110> I smote <5221> thee, but in my favour <7522> have I had mercy <7355> on thee. 11 Therefore thy gates <8179> shall be open <6605> continually <8548>; they shall not be shut <5462> day <3119> nor night <3915>; that [men] may bring <0935> unto thee the forces <2428> of the Gentiles <1471>, and [that] their kings <4428> [may be] brought <5090>. 12 For the nation <1471> and kingdom <4467> that will not serve <5647> thee shall perish <6>; yea, [those] nations <1471> shall be utterly wasted <2717>. 13 The glory <3519> of Lebanon <3844> shall come <0935> unto thee, the fir <1265> tree, the pine <8410> tree, and the box <8391> together <3162>, to beautify <6286> the place <4725> of my sanctuary <4720>; and I will make <7760> the place <4725> of my feet <7272> glorious <3513>. 14 The sons <1121> also of them that afflicted <6031> thee shall come <1980> bending <7817> unto thee; and all <3605> they that despised <5006> thee shall bow <7812> themselves down <7812> at <5921> the soles <3709> of thy feet <7272>; and they shall call <7121> thee, The city <5892> of the LORD <3068>, The Zion <6726> of the Holy <6918> One of Israel <3478>. 15. Whereas <8478> thou hast been <1961> forsaken <5800> and hated <8130>, so that no <0369> man went <5674> through <5674> [thee], I will make <7760> thee an eternal <5769> excellency <1347>, a joy <4885> of many generations <1755>. 16 Thou shalt also suck <3243> the milk <2461> of the Gentiles <1471>, and shalt suck <3243> the breast <7699> of kings <4428>: and thou shalt know <3045> that I the LORD <3068> [am] thy Saviour <3467> and thy Redeemer <1350>, the mighty <46> One of Jacob <3290>. 17 For brass <5178> I will bring <0935> gold <2091>, and for iron <1270> I will bring <0935> silver <3701>, and for wood <6086> brass <5178>, and for stones <68> iron <1270>: I will also make <7760> thy officers <6486> peace <7965>, and thine exactors <5065> righteousness <6666>. 18 Violence <2555> shall no <3808> more <5750> be heard <8085> in thy land <0776>, wasting <7701> nor destruction <7667> within thy borders <1366>; but thou shalt call <7121> thy walls <2346> Salvation <3444>, and thy gates <8179> Praise <8416>. 19 The sun <8121> shall be no <3808> more <5750> thy light <0216> by day <3117>; neither <3808> for brightness <5051> shall the moon <3394> give light <0216> unto thee: but the LORD <3068> shall be unto thee an everlasting <5769> light <0216>, and thy God <0430> thy glory <8597>. 20 Thy sun <8121> shall no <3808> more <5750> go <0935> down; neither <3808> shall thy moon <3391> withdraw <0622> itself: for the LORD <3068> shall be thine everlasting <5769> light <0216>, and the days <3117> of thy mourning <60> shall be ended <7999>. 21 Thy people <5971> also [shall be] all <3605> righteous <6662>: they shall inherit <3423> the land <0776> for ever <5769>, the branch <5342> of my planting <4302>, the work <4639> of my hands <3027>, that I may be glorified <6286>. 22 A little <6996> one shall become <1961> a thousand <0505>, and a small <6810> one a strong <6099> nation <1471>: I the LORD <3068> will hasten <2363> it in his time <6256>. Isaiah 61 1. The Spirit <7307> of the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> [is] upon me; because <3282> the LORD <3068> hath anointed <4886> me to preach <1319> good <1319> tidings <1319> unto the meek <6035>; he hath sent <7971> me to bind <2280> up the brokenhearted, to proclaim <7121> liberty <1865> to the captives <7628>, and the opening <6495> of the prison <6495> to [them that are] bound <0631>; 2 To proclaim <7121> the acceptable <7522> year <8141> of the LORD <3068>, and the day <3117> of vengeance <5359> of our God <0430>; to comfort <5162> all <3605> that mourn <57>; 3 To appoint <7760> unto them that mourn <57> in Zion <6726>, to give <5414> unto them beauty <6287> for ashes <0665>, the oil <8081> of joy <8342> for mourning <60>, the garment <4594> of praise <8416> for the spirit <7307> of heaviness <3544>; that they might be called <7121> trees <0352> of righteousness <6664>, the planting <4302> of the LORD <3068>, that he might be glorified <6286>. 4. And they shall build <1129> the old <5769> wastes <2723>, they shall raise <6965> up the former <7223> desolations <8074>, and they shall repair <2318> the waste <2721> cities <5892>, the desolations <8074> of many <7227> generations <1755>. 5 And strangers <2114> shall stand <5975> and feed <7462> your flocks <6629>, and the sons <1121> of the alien <5236> [shall be] your plowmen <0406> and your vinedressers <3755>. 6 But ye shall be named <7121> the Priests <3548> of the LORD <3068>: [men] shall call <7121> you the Ministers <8334> of our God <0430>: ye shall eat <0398> the riches <2428> of the Gentiles <1471>, and in their glory <3519> shall ye boast <3235> yourselves. 7 For your shame <1322> [ye shall have] double <4932>; and [for] confusion <3639> they shall rejoice <7442> in their portion <2506>: therefore <3651> in their land <0776> they shall possess <3423> the double <4932>: everlasting <5769> joy <8057> shall be unto them. 8 For I the LORD <3068> love <0157> judgment <4941>, I hate <8130> robbery <1498> for burnt <5930> offering; and I will direct <5414> their work <6468> in truth <0571>, and I will make <3772> an everlasting <5769> covenant <1285> with them. 9 And their seed <2233> shall be known <3045> among the Gentiles <1471>, and their offspring <6631> among <8432> the people <5971>: all <3605> that see <7200> them shall acknowledge <5234> them, that they [are] the seed <2233> [which] the LORD <3068> hath blessed <1288>. 10. I will greatly rejoice <7797> in the LORD <3068>, my soul <5315> shall be joyful <1523> in my God <0430>; for he hath clothed <3847> me with the garments <0899> of salvation <3468>, he hath covered <3271> me with the robe <4598> of righteousness <6666>, as a bridegroom <2860> decketh <3547> [himself] with ornaments <6287>, and as a bride <3618> adorneth <5710> [herself] with her jewels <3627>. 11 For as the earth <0776> bringeth <3318> forth <3318> her bud <6779>, and as the garden <1593> causeth the things that are sown <2221> in it to spring <6779> forth; so <3651> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> will cause righteousness <6666> and praise <8416> to spring <6779> forth before <5048> all <3605> the nations <1471>. Isaiah 62 1. For Zion's sake <4616> will I not hold <2814> my peace <2814>, and for Jerusalem's <3389> sake <4616> I will not rest <8252>, until <5704> the righteousness <6664> thereof go <3318> forth <3318> as brightness <5051>, and the salvation <3444> thereof as a lamp <3940> [that] burneth <1197>. 2 And the Gentiles <1471> shall see <7200> thy righteousness <6664>, and all <3605> kings <4428> thy glory <3519>: and thou shalt be called <7121> by a new <2319> name <8034>, which <0834> the mouth <6310> of the LORD <3068> shall name <8034>. 3 Thou shalt also be a crown <5850> of glory <8597> in the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068>, and a royal <4410> diadem <6797> in the hand <3709> of thy God <0430>. 4 Thou shalt no <3808> more <5750> be termed <0559> Forsaken <5800>; neither <3808> shall thy land <0776> any more <5750> be termed <0559> Desolate <8077>: but thou shalt be called <7121> Hephzibah <2657>, and thy land <0776> Beulah <1166>: for the LORD <3068> delighteth <2654> in thee, and thy land <0776> shall be married <1166>. 5 For [as] a young <0970> man marrieth <1166> a virgin <1330>, [so] shall thy sons <1121> marry <1166> thee: and [as] the bridegroom <2860> rejoiceth <4885> over <5921> the bride <3618>, [so] shall thy God <0430> rejoice <7797> over <5921> thee. 6. I have set <6485> watchmen <8104> upon thy walls <2346>, O Jerusalem <3389>, [which] shall never <3808> hold <2814> their peace <2814> day <3117> nor night <3915>: ye that make mention <2142> of the LORD <3068>, keep not silence <1824>, 7 And give <5414> him no <0408> rest <1824>, till <5704> he establish <3559>, and till <5704> he make <7760> Jerusalem <3389> a praise <8416> in the earth <0776>. 8 The LORD <3068> hath sworn <7650> by his right <3225> hand <3225>, and by the arm <2220> of his strength <5797>, Surely <0518> I will no <0518> more <5750> give <5414> thy corn <1715> [to be] meat <3978> for thine enemies <0341>; and the sons <1121> of the stranger <5236> shall not drink <8354> thy wine <8492>, for the which <0834> thou hast laboured <3021>: 9 But they that have gathered <0622> it shall eat <0398> it, and praise <1984> the LORD <3068>; and they that have brought <6908> it together shall drink <8354> it in the courts <2691> of my holiness <6944>. 10. Go <5674> through <5674>, go <5674> through the gates <8179>; prepare <6437> ye the way <1870> of the people <5971>; cast <5549> up, cast <5549> up the highway <4546>; gather <5619> out the stones <68>; lift <7311> up a standard <5251> for the people <5971>. 11 Behold <2009>, the LORD <3068> hath proclaimed <8085> unto the end <7097> of the world <0776>, Say <0559> ye to the daughter <1323> of Zion <6726>, Behold <2009>, thy salvation <3468> cometh <0935>; behold <2009>, his reward <7939> [is] with him, and his work <6468> before <6440> him. 12 And they shall call <7121> them, The holy <6944> people <5971>, The redeemed <1350> of the LORD <3068>: and thou shalt be called <7121>, Sought <1875> out, A city <5892> not forsaken <5800>. Isaiah 63 1. Who <4310> [is] this <2088> that cometh <0935> from Edom <0123>, with dyed <2556> garments <0899> from Bozrah <1224>? this <2088> [that is] glorious <1921> in his apparel <3830>, travelling <6808> in the greatness <7230> of his strength <3581>? I that speak <1696> in righteousness <6666>, mighty <7227> to save <3467>. 2 Wherefore <4069> [art thou] red <0122> in thine apparel <3830>, and thy garments <0899> like him that treadeth <1869> in the winefat <1660>? 3 I have trodden <1869> the winepress <6333> alone <0905>; and of the people <5971> [there was] none with me: for I will tread <1869> them in mine anger <0639>, and trample <7429> them in my fury <2534>; and their blood <5332> shall be sprinkled <5137> upon my garments <0899>, and I will stain <1351> all <3605> my raiment <4403>. 4 For the day <3117> of vengeance <5359> [is] in mine heart <3820>, and the year <8141> of my redeemed <1350> is come <0935>. 5 And I looked <5027>, and [there was] none <0369> to help <5826>; and I wondered <8074> that [there was] none <0369> to uphold <5564>: therefore mine own arm <2220> brought <3467> salvation <3467> unto me; and my fury <2534>, it upheld <5564> me. 6 And I will tread <0947> down the people <5971> in mine anger <0639>, and make them drunk <7937> in my fury <2534>, and I will bring <3381> down their strength <5332> to the earth <0776>. 7. I will mention <2142> the lovingkindnesses <2617> of the LORD <3068>, [and] the praises <8416> of the LORD <3068>, according <5921> to all <3605> that the LORD <3068> hath bestowed <1580> on us, and the great <7227> goodness <2898> toward the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, which <0834> he hath bestowed <1580> on them according to his mercies <7356>, and according to the multitude <7230> of his lovingkindnesses <2617>. 8 For he said <0559>, Surely <0389> they [are] my people <5971>, children <1121> [that] will not lie <8266>: so he was their Saviour <3467>. 9 In all <3605> their affliction <6869> he was afflicted <6862>, and the angel <4397> of his presence <6440> saved <3467> them: in his love <0160> and in his pity <2551> he redeemed <1350> them; and he bare <5190> them, and carried <5375> them all <3605> the days <3117> of old <5769>. 10 But they rebelled <4784>, and vexed <6087> his holy <6944> Spirit <7307>: therefore he was turned <2015> to be their enemy <0341>, [and] he fought <3898> against them. 11 Then he remembered <2142> the days <3117> of old <5769>, Moses <4872>, [and] his people <5971>, [saying], Where <0346> [is] he that brought <5927> them up out of the sea <3220> with the shepherd <7462> of his flock <6629>? where <0346> [is] he that put <7760> his holy <6944> Spirit <7307> within <7130> him? 12 That led <3212> [them] by the right <3225> hand <3225> of Moses <4872> with his glorious <8597> arm <2220>, dividing <1234> the water <4325> before <6440> them, to make <6213> himself an everlasting <5769> name <8034>? 13 That led <3212> them through the deep <8415>, as an horse <5483> in the wilderness <4057>, [that] they should not stumble <3782>? 14 As a beast <0929> goeth <3318> down <3381> into the valley <1237>, the Spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068> caused him to rest <5117>: so <3651> didst thou lead <5090> thy people <5971>, to make <6213> thyself a glorious <8597> name <8034>. 15. Look <5027> down from heaven <8064>, and behold <7200> from the habitation <2073> of thy holiness <6944> and of thy glory <8597>: where <0346> [is] thy zeal <7068> and thy strength <1369>, the sounding <1995> of thy bowels <4578> and of thy mercies <7356> toward <0413> me? are they restrained <0662>? 16 Doubtless <3588> thou [art] our father <1>, though <3588> Abraham <85> be ignorant of us, and Israel <3478> acknowledge <5234> us not: thou, O LORD <3068>, [art] our father <1>, our redeemer <1350>; thy name <8034> [is] from everlasting <5769>. 17 O LORD <3068>, why <4100> hast thou made us to err <8582> from thy ways <1870>, [and] hardened <7188> our heart <3820> from thy fear <3374>? Return <7725> for thy servants <5650>' sake <4616>, the tribes <7626> of thine inheritance <5159>. 18 The people <5971> of thy holiness <6944> have possessed <3423> [it] but a little <4705> while <4705>: our adversaries <6862> have trodden <0947> down thy sanctuary <4720>. 19 We are [thine]: thou never barest <4910> rule <4910> over them; they were not called <7121> by thy name <8034>. Isaiah 64 1. Oh <3863> that thou wouldest rend <7167> the heavens <8064>, that thou wouldest come <3381> down <3381>, that the mountains <2022> might flow <2151> down at thy presence <6440>, 2 As [when] the melting <2003> fire <0784> burneth <6919>, the fire <0784> causeth the waters <4325> to boil <1158>, to make thy name <8034> known <3045> to thine adversaries <6862>, [that] the nations <1471> may tremble <7264> at thy presence <6440>! 3 When thou didst <6213> terrible <3372> things [which] we looked <6960> not for, thou camest <3381> down <3381>, the mountains <2022> flowed <2151> down at thy presence <6440>. 4 For since the beginning <5769> of the world <5769> [men] have not heard <8085>, nor <3808> perceived <0238> by the ear <0238>, neither <3808> hath the eye <5869> seen <7200>, O God <0430>, beside <2108> thee, [what] he hath prepared <6213> for him that waiteth <2442> for him. 5 Thou meetest <6293> him that rejoiceth <7797> and worketh <6213> righteousness <6664>, [those that] remember <2142> thee in thy ways <1870>: behold <2005>, thou art wroth <7107>; for we have sinned <2398>: in those <1992> is continuance <5769>, and we shall be saved <3467>. 6. But we are all <3605> as an unclean <2931> [thing], and all <3605> our righteousnesses <6666> [are] as filthy <5708> rags <0899>; and we all <3605> do fade <5034> as a leaf <5929>; and our iniquities <5771>, like the wind <7307>, have taken <5375> us away. 7 And [there is] none <0369> that calleth <7121> upon thy name <8034>, that stirreth <5782> up himself to take <2388> hold <2388> of thee: for thou hast hid <5641> thy face <6440> from us, and hast consumed <4127> us, because <3027> of our iniquities <5771>. 8 But now <6258>, O LORD <3068>, thou [art] our father <1>; we [are] the clay <2563>, and thou our potter <3335>; and we all <3605> [are] the work <4639> of thy hand <3027>. 9 Be not wroth <7107> very <3966> sore <3966>, O LORD <3068>, neither <0408> remember <2142> iniquity <5771> for ever <5703>: behold <2005>, see <5027>, we beseech <4994> thee, we [are] all <3605> thy people <5971>. 10 Thy holy <6944> cities <5892> are a wilderness <4057>, Zion <6726> is a wilderness <4057>, Jerusalem <3389> a desolation <8077>. 11 Our holy <6944> and our beautiful <8597> house <1004>, where <0834> our fathers <1> praised <1984> thee, is burned <8316> up with fire <0784>: and all <3605> our pleasant <4261> things are laid waste <2723>. 12 Wilt thou refrain <0662> thyself for these <0428> [things], O LORD <3068>? wilt thou hold <2814> thy peace <2814>, and afflict <6031> us very <3966> sore <3966>? Isaiah 65 1. I am sought <1875> of [them that] asked <7592> not [for me]; I am found <4672> of [them that] sought <1245> me not: I said <0559>, Behold <2009> me, behold <2009> me, unto a nation <1471> [that] was not called <7121> by my name <8034>. 2 I have spread <6566> out my hands <3027> all <3605> the day <3117> unto a rebellious <5637> people <5971>, which walketh <1980> in a way <1870> [that was] not good <2896>, after <0310> their own thoughts <4284>; 3 A people <5971> that provoketh me to anger <3707> continually <8548> to my face <6440>; that sacrificeth <2076> in gardens <1593>, and burneth <6999> incense <6999> upon altars of brick <3843>; 4 Which remain <3427> among the graves <6913>, and lodge <3885> in the monuments <5341>, which eat <0398> swine's <2386> flesh <1320>, and broth <6564> of abominable <6292> [things is in] their vessels <3627>; 5 Which <0834> say <0559>, Stand <7126> by thyself, come <5066> not near <5066> to me; for I am holier <6942> than thou. These <0428> [are] a smoke <6227> in my nose <0639>, a fire <0784> that burneth <3344> all <3605> the day <3117>. 6 Behold <2009>, [it is] written <3789> before <6440> me: I will not keep silence <2814>, but will recompense <7999>, even recompense into <5921> their bosom <2436>, 7 Your iniquities <5771>, and the iniquities <5771> of your fathers <1> together <3162>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, which <0834> have burned <6999> incense <6999> upon the mountains <2022>, and blasphemed <2778> me upon the hills <1389>: therefore will I measure <4058> their former <7223> work <6468> into <5921> their bosom <2436>. 8. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, As the new <8492> wine <8492> is found <4672> in the cluster <0811>, and [one] saith <0559>, Destroy <7843> it not; for a blessing <1293> [is] in it: so <3651> will I do <6213> for my servants <5650>' sakes <6616>, that I may not destroy <7843> them all <3605>. 9 And I will bring <3318> forth <3318> a seed <2233> out of Jacob <3290>, and out of Judah <3063> an inheritor <3423> of my mountains <2022>: and mine elect <0972> shall inherit <3423> it, and my servants <5650> shall dwell <7931> there <8033>. 10 And Sharon <8289> shall be a fold <5116> of flocks <6629>, and the valley <6010> of Achor <5911> a place for the herds <1241> to lie <7258> down <7257> in, for my people <5971> that have sought <1875> me. 11. But ye [are] they that forsake <5800> the LORD <3068>, that forget <7913> my holy <6944> mountain <2022>, that prepare <6186> a table <7979> for that troop <1409>, and that furnish <4390> the drink <4469> offering unto that number <4507>. 12 Therefore will I number <4487> you to the sword <2719>, and ye shall all <3605> bow <3766> down <3766> to the slaughter <2875>: because <3282> when I called <7121>, ye did not answer <6030>; when I spake <1696>, ye did <6213> not hear <8085>; but did evil <7451> before mine eyes <5869>, and did <6213> choose <0977> [that] wherein <0834> I delighted <2654> not. 13 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, Behold <2009>, my servants <5650> shall eat <0398>, but ye shall be hungry <7456>: behold <2009>, my servants <5650> shall drink <8354>, but ye shall be thirsty <6770>: behold <2009>, my servants <5650> shall rejoice <8055>, but ye shall be ashamed <0954>: 14 Behold <2009>, my servants <5650> shall sing <7442> for joy <2898> of heart <3820>, but ye shall cry <6817> for sorrow <3511> of heart <3820>, and shall howl <3213> for vexation <7667> of spirit <7307>. 15 And ye shall leave <3241> your name <8034> for a curse <7621> unto my chosen <0977>: for the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> shall slay <4191> thee, and call <7121> his servants <5650> by another <0312> name <8034>: 16 That he who <0834> blesseth <1288> himself in the earth <0776> shall bless <1288> himself in the God <0430> of truth <0548>; and he that sweareth <7650> in the earth <0776> shall swear <7650> by the God <0430> of truth <0548>; because <3588> the former <7223> troubles <6869> are forgotten <7911>, and because <3588> they are hid <5641> from mine eyes <5869>. 17. For, behold <2005>, I create <1254> new <2319> heavens <8064> and a new <2319> earth <0776>: and the former <7223> shall not be remembered <2142>, nor <3808> come <5927> into <5921> mind <3820>. 18 But be ye glad <7796> and rejoice <1523> for ever <5703> [in that] which <0834> I create <1254>: for, behold <2005>, I create <1254> Jerusalem <3389> a rejoicing <1525>, and her people <5971> a joy <4885>. 19 And I will rejoice <1523> in Jerusalem <3389>, and joy <7796> in my people <5971>: and the voice <6963> of weeping <1065> shall be no <3808> more <5750> heard <8085> in her, nor the voice <6963> of crying <2201>. 20 There shall be no <3808> more <5750> thence <8033> an infant <5764> of days <3117>, nor an old <2205> man that hath not filled <4390> his days <3117>: for the child <5288> shall die <4191> an hundred <3967> years <8141> old <1121>; but the sinner <2398> [being] an hundred <3967> years <8141> old <1121> shall be accursed <7043>. 21 And they shall build <1129> houses <1004>, and inhabit <3427> [them]; and they shall plant <5193> vineyards <3754>, and eat <0398> the fruit <6529> of them. 22 They shall not build <1129>, and another <0312> inhabit <3427>; they shall not plant <5193>, and another <0312> eat <0398>: for as the days <3117> of a tree <6086> [are] the days <3117> of my people <5971>, and mine elect <0972> shall long enjoy <1086> the work <4639> of their hands <3027>. 23 They shall not labour <3021> in vain <7385>, nor <3808> bring <3205> forth <3205> for trouble <0928>; for they [are] the seed <2233> of the blessed <1288> of the LORD <3068>, and their offspring <6631> with them. 24 And it shall come <1961> to pass, that before <2962> they call <7121>, I will answer <6030>; and while they are yet <5750> speaking <1696>, I will hear <8085>. 25 The wolf <2061> and the lamb <2924> shall feed <7462> together <0259>, and the lion <0738> shall eat <0398> straw <8401> like the bullock <1241>: and dust <6083> [shall be] the serpent's <5175> meat <3899>. They shall not hurt <7489> nor <3808> destroy <7843> in all <3605> my holy <6944> mountain <2022>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>. Isaiah 66 1. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, The heaven <8064> [is] my throne <3678>, and the earth <0776> [is] my footstool: where <0335> [is] the house <1004> that ye build <1129> unto me? and where <0335> [is] the place <4725> of my rest <4496>? 2 For all <3605> those <0428> [things] hath mine hand <3027> made <6213>, and all <3605> those <0428> [things] have been <1961>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>: but to this <2088> [man] will I look <5027>, [even] to [him that is] poor <6041> and of a contrite <5223> spirit <7307>, and trembleth <2730> at <5921> my word <1697>. 3 He that killeth <7819> an ox <7794> [is as if] he slew <5221> a man <0376>; he that sacrificeth <2076> a lamb <7716>, [as if] he cut off a dog's <3611> neck <6202>; he that offereth <5927> an oblation <4503>, [as if he offered <5927>] swine's <2386> blood <1818>; he that burneth <2142> incense <3828>, [as if] he blessed <1288> an idol <0205>. Yea <1571>, they have chosen <0977> their own ways <1870>, and their soul <5315> delighteth <2654> in their abominations <8251>. 4 I also <1571> will choose <0977> their delusions <8586>, and will bring <0935> their fears <4035> upon them; because <3282> when I called <7121>, none <0369> did answer <6030>; when I spake <1696>, they did not hear <8085>: but they did <6213> evil <7451> before mine eyes <5869>, and chose <0977> [that] in which <0834> I delighted <2654> not. 5. Hear <8085> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068>, ye that tremble <2730> at <0413> his word <1697>; Your brethren <0251> that hated <8130> you, that cast <5077> you out for my name's <8034> sake <4616>, said <0559>, Let the LORD <3068> be glorified <3513>: but he shall appear <7200> to your joy <8057>, and they shall be ashamed <0954>. 6 A voice <6963> of noise <7588> from the city <5892>, a voice <6963> from the temple <1964>, a voice <6963> of the LORD <3068> that rendereth <7999> recompence <1576> to his enemies <0341>. 7 Before <2962> she travailed <2342>, she brought <3205> forth <3205>; before <2962> her pain <2256> came <0935>, she was delivered <4422> of a man <2145> child. 8 Who <4310> hath heard <8085> such <2063> a thing? who <0834> hath seen <7200> such <0428> things? Shall the earth <0776> be made to bring <2342> forth <2342> in one <0259> day <3117>? [or] shall a nation <1471> be born <3205> at once <6471>? for as soon <1571> as Zion <6726> travailed <2342>, she brought <3205> forth <3205> her children <1121>. 9 Shall I bring <7665> to the birth <7665>, and not cause to bring <3205> forth <3205>? saith <0559> the LORD <3068>: shall I cause to bring <3205> forth <3205>, and shut <6113> [the womb]? saith <0559> thy God <0430>. 10 Rejoice <8055> ye with Jerusalem <3389>, and be glad <1528> with her, all <3605> ye that love <0157> her: rejoice <7797> for joy <4885> with her, all <3605> ye that mourn <56> for her: 11 That ye may suck <3243>, and be satisfied <7646> with the breasts <7699> of her consolations <8575>; that ye may milk <4711> out, and be delighted <6026> with the abundance <2123> of her glory <3519>. 12 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, Behold <2005>, I will extend <5186> peace <7965> to her like a river <5104>, and the glory <3519> of the Gentiles <1471> like a flowing <7857> stream <5158>: then shall ye suck <3243>, ye shall be borne <5375> upon [her] sides <6654>, and be dandled <8173> upon [her] knees <1290>. 13 As one <0376> whom <0834> his mother <0517> comforteth <5162>, so <3651> will I comfort <5162> you; and ye shall be comforted <5162> in Jerusalem <3389>. 14 And when ye see <7200> [this], your heart <3820> shall rejoice <7797>, and your bones <6106> shall flourish <6524> like an herb <1877>: and the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> shall be known <3045> toward <0854> his servants <5650>, and [his] indignation <2194> toward <0854> his enemies <0341>. 15. For, behold <2009>, the LORD <3068> will come <0935> with fire <0784>, and with his chariots <4818> like a whirlwind <5492>, to render <7725> his anger <0639> with fury <2534>, and his rebuke <1606> with flames <3851> of fire <0784>. 16 For by fire <0784> and by his sword <2719> will the LORD <3068> plead <8199> with all <3605> flesh <1320>: and the slain <2491> of the LORD <3068> shall be many <7231>. 17 They that sanctify <6942> themselves, and purify <2891> themselves in the gardens <1593> behind <0310> one <0259> [tree] in the midst <8432>, eating <0398> swine's <2386> flesh <1320>, and the abomination <8263>, and the mouse <5909>, shall be consumed <5486> together <3162>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>. 18 For I [know] their works <4639> and their thoughts <4284>: it shall come <0935>, that I will gather <6908> all <3605> nations <1471> and tongues <3956>; and they shall come <0935>, and see <7200> my glory <3519>. 19 And I will set <7760> a sign <0226> among them, and I will send <7971> those <1992> that escape <6412> of them unto the nations <1471>, [to] Tarshish <8659>, Pul <6322>, and Lud <3865>, that draw <4900> the bow <7198>, [to] Tubal <8422>, and Javan <3120>, [to] the isles <0339> afar <7350> off, that have not heard <8085> my fame <8088>, neither <3808> have seen <7200> my glory <3519>; and they shall declare <5046> my glory <3519> among the Gentiles <1471>. 20 And they shall bring <0935> all <3605> your brethren <0251> [for] an offering <4503> unto the LORD <3068> out of all <3605> nations <1471> upon horses <5483>, and in chariots <7393>, and in litters <6632>, and upon mules <6505>, and upon swift <3753> beasts <3753>, to my holy <6944> mountain <2022> Jerusalem <3389>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>, as the children <1121> of Israel <3478> bring <0935> an offering <4503> in a clean <2889> vessel <3627> into the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>. 21 And I will also <1571> take <3947> of them for priests <3548> [and] for Levites <3881>, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>. 22 For as the new <2319> heavens <8064> and the new <2319> earth <0776>, which <0834> I will make <6213>, shall remain <5975> before <6440> me, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>, so <3651> shall your seed <2233> and your name <8034> remain <5975>. 23 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] from one new <2320> moon <2320> to another, and from one sabbath <7676> to another, shall all <3605> flesh <1320> come <0935> to worship <7812> before <6440> me, saith <0559> the LORD <3068>. 24 And they shall go <3318> forth <3318>, and look <7200> upon the carcases <6297> of the men <0582> that have transgressed <6586> against me: for their worm <8438> shall not die <4191>, neither <3808> shall their fire <0784> be quenched <3518>; and they shall be an abhorring <1860> unto all <3605> flesh <1320>. ~~~~~~
