ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

Isaiah 1

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

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

saw <2372 chazah > concerning <5921 <al > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >

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

Uzziah <5818 <Uzziyah >, Jotham <3147 Yowtham >, Ahaz <0271

>Achaz >, [and] Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >, kings <4428 melek >

of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >.

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

ear <0238 >azan >, O earth <0776 >erets >: for the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath spoken <1696 dabar >, I have nourished <1431

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

they have rebelled <6586 pasha< > against me.

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

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

crib <18>: [but] Israel <3478 Yisra>el > doth not know <3045

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

<3478 Yisra>el > unto anger <5006 na>ats >, they are gone <2114

zuwr > away backward <0268 >achowr >.

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

>? ye will revolt <5627 carah > more and more: the whole <3605

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

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

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

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

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

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

<4347 makkah >: they have not been closed <2115 zuwr >, neither

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

mollified <7401 rakak > with ointment <8081 shemen >.

7 Your country <0776 >erets > [is] desolate <8077 sh@mamah >,

your cities <5892 <iyr > [are] burned <8313 saraph > with fire

<0784 >esh >: your land <0127 >adamah >, strangers <2114 zuwr >

devour <0398 >akal > it in your presence <5048 neged >, and [it

is] desolate <8077 sh@mamah >, as overthrown <4114 mahpekah > by

strangers <2114 zuwr >.

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

<3498 yathar > as a cottage <5521 cukkah > in a vineyard <3754

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

<4750 miqshah >, as a besieged <5341 natsar > city <5892 <iyr >.

9 Except <3884 luwle> > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635

tsaba> > had left <3498 yathar > unto us a very <4592 m@<at >

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

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

like <1819 damah > unto Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah >.

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

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

>; give ear <0238 >azan > unto the law <8451 towrah > of our God

<0430 >elohiym >, ye people <5971 <am > of Gomorrah <6017

<Amorah >.

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

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

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

<5930 <olah > offerings of rams <0352 >ayil >, and the fat <2459

cheleb > of fed <4806 m@riy> > beasts <4806 m@riy> >; and I

delight <2654 chaphets > not in the blood <1818 dam > of

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

<6260 <attuwd >.

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

> before <6440 paniym > me, who <4310 miy > hath required <1245

baqash > this <2063 zo>th > at your hand <3027 yad >, to tread

<7429 ramac > my courts <2691 chatser >?

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

<7723 shav> > oblations <4503 minchah >; incense <7004 q@toreth

> is an abomination <8441 tow<ebah > unto me; the new <2320

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

the calling <7121 qara> > of assemblies <4744 miqra> >, I cannot

away with; [it is] iniquity <0205 >aven >, even the solemn <2282

chag > meeting <6116 <atsarah >.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

prayers <8605 t@phillah >, I will not hear <8085 shama< >: your

hands <3027 yad > are full <4390 male> > of blood <1818 dam >.

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

<5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the evil <7455 roa< > of your

doings <4611 ma<alal > from before <5048 neged > mine eyes <5869

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

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

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

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

<3490 yathowm >, plead <7378 riyb > for the widow <0490 >almanah

18 Come <3212 yalak > now <4994 na> >, and let us reason <3198

yakach > together, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >:

though <0518 >im > your sins <2399 chet> > be as scarlet <8144

shaniy >, they shall be as white <3835 laban > as snow <7950

sheleg >; though <0518 >im > they be red <0119 >adam > like

<1819 damah > crimson <8438 towla< >, they shall be as wool

<6785 tsemer >.

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

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

<0776 >erets >:

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

marah >, ye shall be devoured <0398 >akal > with the sword <2719

chereb >: for the mouth <6310 peh > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

hath spoken <1696 dabar > [it].

21. How <0349 >eyk > is the faithful <0539 >aman > city <7151

qiryah > become <1961 hayah > an harlot <2181 zanah >! it was

full <4392 male> > of judgment <4941 mishpat >; righteousness

<6664 tsedeq > lodged <3885 luwn > in it; but now <6258 <attah >

murderers <7523 ratsach >.

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

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

water <4325 mayim >:

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

companions <2270 chaber > of thieves <1590 gannab >: every <3605

kol > one loveth <0157 >ahab > gifts <7810 shachad >, and

followeth <7291 radaph > after rewards <8021 shalmon >: they

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

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

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

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

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

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

will ease <5162 nacham > me of mine adversaries <6862 tsar >,

and avenge <5358 naqam > me of mine enemies <0341 >oyeb >:

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

and purely <1252 bor > purge <6884 tsaraph > away thy dross

<5509 ciyg >, and take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > all <3605

kol > thy tin <0913 b@diyl >:

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

as at the first <7223 ri>shown >, and thy counsellors <3289

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

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

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

<7151 qiryah >.

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

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

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >.

28 And the destruction <7667 sheber > of the transgressors

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

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

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

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

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

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

gannah > that ye have chosen <0977 bachar >.

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

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

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

31 And the strong <2634 chacon > shall be as tow <5296 n@<oreth

together <3162 yachad >, and none <0369 >ayin > shall quench

<3518 kabah > [them].

Isaiah 2

1. The word <1697 dabar > that Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > the son

<1121 ben > of Amoz <0531 >Amowts > saw <2372 chazah >

concerning <5921 <al > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem

<3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.

2 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in the last <0319

of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith > shall be

established <3559 kuwn > in the top <7218 ro>sh > of the

the hills <1389 gib<ah >; and all <3605 kol > nations <1471 gowy

3 And many <7227 rab > people <5971 <am > shall go <1980 halak

the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > from

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.

4 And he shall judge <8199 shaphat > among <0996 beyn > the

nations <1471 gowy >, and shall rebuke <3198 yakach > many <7227

rab > people <5971 <am >: and they shall beat <3807 kathath >

their swords <2719 chereb > into plowshares <0855 >eth >, and

their spears <2595 chaniyth > into pruninghooks <4211 mazmerah >:

nation <1471 gowy > shall not lift <5375 nasa> > up sword <2719

yalak > ye, and let us walk <3212 yalak > in the light <0216

6. Therefore thou hast forsaken <5203 natash > thy people <5971

<am > the house <1004 bayith > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, because

<3588 kiy > they be replenished <4390 male> > from the east

Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy >, and they please <5606 caphaq >

themselves in the children <3206 yeled > of strangers <5237

7 Their land <0776 >erets > also is full <4390 male> > of

<7097 qatseh > of their chariots <4818 merkabah >:

8 Their land <0776 >erets > also is full <4390 male> > of idols

ma<aseh > of their own hands <3027 yad >, that which <0834 >aher

9 And the mean <0120 >adam > man <1201 Ba<sha> > boweth <7817

10. Enter <0935 bow> > into the rock <6697 tsuwr >, and hide

pachad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and for the glory <1926

11 The lofty <1365 gabhuwth > looks <5869 <ayin > of man <0120

<7312 ruwm > of men <0582 >enowsh > shall be bowed <7817

shachach > down <7817 shachach >, and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

12 For the day <3117 yowm > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

17 And the loftiness <1365 gabhuwth > of man <0120 >adam >

haughtiness <7312 ruwm > of men <0582 >enowsh > shall be made

18 And the idols <0457 >eliyl > he shall utterly <3632 kaliyl >

19 And they shall go <0935 bow> > into the holes <4631 m@<arah

20 In that day <3117 yowm > a man <0120 >adam > shall cast

and his idols <0457 >eliyl > of gold <2091 zahab >, which <0834

21 To go <0935 bow> > into the clefts <5366 n@qarah > of the

rocks <6697 tsuwr >, and into the tops <5585 ca<iyph > of the

ragged rocks <5553 cela< >, for fear <6343 pachad > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >, and for the glory <1926 hadar > of his majesty

22 Cease <2308 chadal > ye from man <0120 >adam >, whose <0834

of?

Isaiah 3

1. For, behold <2009 hinneh >, the Lord <0113 >adown >, the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, doth take <5493

cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > from Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > and

from Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > the stay <4937 mish<en > and the

staff <4938 mish<enah >, the whole <3605 kol > stay <8172 sha<an

mish<en > of water <4325 mayim >,

2 The mighty <1368 gibbowr > man, and the man <0376 >iysh > of

war <4421 milchamah >, the judge <8199 shaphat >, and the

prophet <5030 nabiy> >, and the prudent <7080 qacam >, and the

ancient <2204 zaqen >,

3 The captain <8269 sar > of fifty <2572 chamishshiym >, and

the honourable man, and the counsellor <3289 ya<ats >, and the

cunning <2450 chakam > artificer <2796 charash >, and the

eloquent <0995 biyn > orator <3908 lachash >.

4 And I will give <5414 nathan > children <5288 na<ar > [to be]

their princes <8269 sar >, and babes <8586 ta<aluwl > shall rule

<4910 mashal > over them.

5 And the people <5971 <am > shall be oppressed <5065 nagas >,

every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > by another, and every

<0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > by his neighbour <7453 rea< >:

the child <5288 na<ar > shall behave <7292 rahab > himself

proudly <7292 rahab > against the ancient <2204 zaqen >, and the

base <7034 qalah > against the honourable <3519 kabowd >.

6 When <3588 kiy > a man <0376 >iysh > shall take <8610 taphas

<1004 bayith > of his father <1>, [saying], Thou hast clothing

this <2063 zo>th > ruin <4384 makshelah > [be] under <8478

tachath > thy hand <3027 yad >:

7 In that day <3117 yowm > shall he swear <5375 nasa> >, saying

my house <1004 bayith > [is] neither <0369 >ayin > bread <3899

lechem > nor <0369 >ayin > clothing <8071 simlah >: make <7760

suwm > me not a ruler <7101 qatsiyn > of the people <5971 <am >.

8 For Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > is ruined <3782 kashal >,

and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > is fallen <5307 naphal >: because

<3588 kiy > their tongue <3956 lashown > and their doings <4611

ma<alal > [are] against <0413 >el > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, to

provoke <4784 marah > the eyes <5869 <ayin > of his glory <3519

kabowd >.

9. The shew <1971 hakkarah > of their countenance <6440 paniym

nagad > their sin <2403 chatta>ah > as Sodom <5467 C@dom >, they

hide <3582 kachad > [it] not. Woe <0188 >owy > unto their soul

<5315 nephesh >! for they have rewarded <1580 gamal > evil <7451

ra< > unto themselves <1992 hem >.

10 Say <0559 >amar > ye to the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >, that

[it shall be] well <2896 towb > [with him]: for they shall eat

<0398 >akal > the fruit <6529 p@riy > of their doings <4611

ma<alal >.

11 Woe <0188 >owy > unto the wicked <7563 rasha< >! [it shall

be] ill <7451 ra< > [with him]: for the reward <1576 g@muwl > of

his hands <3027 yad > shall be given <6213 <asah > him.

12 [As for] my people <5971 <am >, children <5768 <owlel >

[are] their oppressors <5065 nagas >, and women <0802 >ishshah >

rule <4910 mashal > over them. O my people <5971 <am >, they

which lead <0833 >ashar > thee cause [thee] to err <8582 ta<ah >,

and destroy <1104 bala< > the way <1870 derek > of thy paths

<0734 >orach >.

13 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > standeth <5324 natsab > up to plead

<7378 riyb >, and standeth <5975 <amad > to judge <1777 diyn >

the people <5971 <am >.

14 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will enter <0935 bow> > into

judgment <4941 mishpat > with the ancients <2204 zaqen > of his

people <5971 <am >, and the princes <8269 sar > thereof: for ye

have eaten <0398 >akal > up the vineyard <3754 kerem >; the

spoil <1500 g@zelah > of the poor <6041 <aniy > [is] in your

houses <1004 bayith >.

15 What <4100 mah > mean ye [that] ye beat <1792 daka> > my

people <5971 <am > to pieces, and grind <2912 tachan > the faces

<6440 paniym > of the poor <6041 <aniy >? saith <5002 n@>um >

the Lord <3068 Y@hovah > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of hosts <6635

tsaba> >.

16. Moreover the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <0559 >amar >,

Because the daughters <1121 ben > of Zion <6726 Tsiyown > are

haughty <1361 gabahh >, and walk <3212 yalak > with stretched

<5186 natah > forth necks <1627 garown > and wanton <8265 saqar

taphaph > [as] they go <3212 yalak >, and making a tinkling

<5913 <akac > with their feet <7272 regel >:

17 Therefore the Lord <0136 >Adonay > will smite <5596 caphach

head <6936 qodqod > of the daughters <1121 ben > of Zion <6726

Tsiyown >, and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will discover <6168

<arah > their secret <6596 poth > parts.

18 In that day <3117 yowm > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > will take

<5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the bravery <8597 tiph>arah > of

[their] tinkling ornaments <5914 <ekec > [about their feet], and

[their] cauls <7636 shabiyc >, and [their] round <7720 saharon >

tires <7720 saharon > like the moon,

19 The chains <5188 n@tiyphah >, and the bracelets <8285 sherah

20 The bonnets <6287 p@>er >, and the ornaments <6807 ts@<adah

21 The rings <2885 tabba<ath >, and nose <0639 >aph > jewels

<5141 nexem >,

22 The changeable <4254 machalatsah > suits of apparel <4254

machalatsah >, and the mantles <4595 ma<ataphah >, and the

wimples <4304 mitpachath >, and the crisping <2754 chariyt >

pins,

23 The glasses <1549 gillayown >, and the fine linen <5466

cadiyn >, and the hoods <6797 tsaniyph >, and the vails <7289

radiyd >.

24 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, [that] instead

<8478 tachath > of sweet <1314 besem > smell <1314 besem > there

shall be stink <4716 maq >; and instead <8478 tachath > of a

girdle <2290 chagowr > a rent <5364 niqpah >; and instead <8478

tachath > of well <4639 ma<aseh > set hair <4748 miqsheh >

baldness <7144 qorchah >; and instead <8478 tachath > of a

stomacher <6614 p@thiygiyl > a girding <4228 machagoreth > of

sackcloth <8242 saq >; [and] burning <3587 kiy > instead <8478

tachath > of beauty <3308 yophiy >.

25 Thy men <4962 math > shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword

<2719 chereb >, and thy mighty <1369 g@buwrah > in the war <4421

milchamah >.

26 And her gates <6607 pethach > shall lament <0578 >anah > and

mourn <56>; and she [being] desolate <5352 naqah > shall sit

<3427 yashab > upon the ground <0776 >erets >.

Isaiah 4

1. And in that day <3117 yowm > seven <7651 sheba< > women

We will eat <0398 >akal > our own bread <3899 lechem >, and wear

let us be called <7121 qara> > by thy name <8034 shem >, to take

<0622 >acaph > away our reproach <2781 cherpah >.

2. In that day <3117 yowm > shall the branch <6780 tsemach > of

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > be beautiful <6643 ts@biy > and

glorious <3519 kabowd >, and the fruit <6529 p@riy > of the

comely <8597 tiph>arah > for them that are escaped <6413

3 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, [that he that is]

left <7604 sha>ar > in Zion <6726 Tsiyown >, and [he that]

remaineth <3498 yathar > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >,

5 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will create <1254 bara> > upon

every <3605 kol > dwelling <4349 makown > place of mount <2022

Isaiah 5

1. Now <4994 na> > will I sing <7891 shiyr > to my wellbeloved

<3039 y@diyd > a song <7892 shiyr > of my beloved <1730 dowd >

touching his vineyard <3754 kerem >. My wellbeloved <3039 y@diyd

2 And he fenced <5823 <azaq > it, and gathered out the stones

<5619 caqal > thereof, and planted <5193 nata< > it with the

choicest <8321 soreq > vine <8321 soreq >, and built <1129 banah

also <1571 gam > made <2672 chatsab > a winepress <3342 yeqeb >

therein <8432 tavek >: and he looked <6960 qavah > that it

should bring <6213 <asah > forth <6213 <asah > grapes <6025

<0891 b@>ushiym > grapes <0891 b@>ushiym >.

3 And now <6258 <attah >, O inhabitants <3427 yashab > of

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and men <0376 >iysh > of Judah

<3063 Y@huwdah >, judge <8199 shaphat >, I pray <4994 na> > you,

betwixt <0996 beyn > me and my vineyard <3754 kerem >.

4 What <4100 mah > could have been done <6466 pa<al > more

<5750 <owd > to my vineyard <3754 kerem >, that I have not done

<6466 pa<al > in it? wherefore <4069 madduwa< >, when I looked

<6960 qavah > that it should bring <6213 <asah > forth <6213

<6213 <asah > wild <0891 b@>ushiym > grapes <0891 b@>ushiym >?

5 And now <6258 <attah > go to; I will tell <3045 yada< > you

what I will do <6213 <asah > to my vineyard <3754 kerem >: I

will take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the hedge <4881

m@suwkah > thereof, and it shall be eaten <0398 >akal > up;

[and] break <6555 parats > down the wall <1447 gader > thereof,

and it shall be trodden <4823 mirmac > down:

6 And I will lay it waste <1326 bathah >: it shall not be

pruned <2167 zamar >, nor <3808 lo> > digged <5737 <adar >; but

there shall come <5927 <alah > up briers <8068 shamiyr > and

thorns <7898 shayith >: I will also command <6680 tsavah > the

clouds <5645 <ab > that they rain <4305 matar > no rain <4306

7 For the vineyard <3754 kerem > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> > [is] the house <1004 bayith > of Israel

<3478 Yisra>el >, and the men <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063

Y@huwdah > his pleasant <8191 sha<shua< > plant <5194 neta< >:

and he looked <6970 Qowa< > for judgment <4941 mishpat >, but

behold <2009 hinneh > oppression <4939 mispach >; for

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, but behold <2009 hinneh > a cry

<6818 tsa<aqah >.

8. Woe <1945 howy > unto them that join <5060 naga< > house

<1004 bayith > to house <1004 bayith >, [that] lay <7126 qarab >

field <7704 sadeh > to field <7704 sadeh >, till <5704 <ad >

[there be] no <0675 >Etsbown > place <4725 maqowm >, that they

may be placed <3427 yashab > alone <0905 bad > in the midst

<7130 qereb > of the earth <0776 >erets >!

9 In mine ears <0241 >ozen > [said] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> >, Of a truth many <7227 rab > houses <1004

bayith > shall be desolate <8047 shammah >, [even] great <1419

10 Yea <3588 kiy >, ten <6235 <eser > acres <6776 tsemed > of

vineyard <3754 kerem > shall yield <6213 <asah > one <0259

homer <2563 chomer > shall yield <6213 <asah > an ephah <0374

11 Woe <1945 howy > unto them that rise <7925 shakam > up early

<7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer >, [that] they may

follow <7291 radaph > strong drink <7941 shekar >; that continue

<0309 >achar > until night <5399 nesheph >, [till] wine <3196

yayin > inflame <1814 dalaq > them!

12 And the harp <3658 kinnowr >, and the viol <5035 nebel >,

the tabret <8596 toph >, and pipe <2485 chaliyl >, and wine

<3196 yayin >, are in their feasts <4960 mishteh >: but they

regard <5027 nabat > not the work <6467 po<al > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >, neither <3808 lo> > consider <7200 ra>ah > the

operation <4639 ma<aseh > of his hands <3027 yad >.

13 Therefore <3651 ken > my people <5971 <am > are gone into

captivity <1540 galah >, because [they have] no <1097 b@liy >

knowledge <1847 da<ath >: and their honourable <3519 kabowd >

men <4962 math > [are] famished <7458 ra<ab >, and their

multitude <1995 hamown > dried <6704 tsicheh > up with thirst

<6772 tsama> >.

14 Therefore <3651 ken > hell <7585 sh@>owl > hath enlarged

<7337 rachab > herself <5315 nephesh >, and opened <6473 pa<ar >

her mouth <6310 peh > without <1097 b@liy > measure <2706 choq >:

and their glory <1926 hadar >, and their multitude <1995 hamown

<alaz >, shall descend <3381 yarad > into it.

15 And the mean <0120 >adam > man <0120 >adam > shall be

brought <7817 shachach > down <7817 shachach >, and the mighty

<0376 >iysh > man <0376 >iysh > shall be humbled <8213 shaphel >,

and the eyes <5869 <ayin > of the lofty <1364 gaboahh > shall

be humbled <8213 shaphel >:

16 But the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > shall

be exalted <1361 gabahh > in judgment <4941 mishpat >, and God

<0410 >el > that is holy <6918 qadowsh > shall be sanctified

<6942 qadash > in righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >.

17 Then shall the lambs <3532 kebes > feed <7462 ra<ah > after

their manner <1699 dober >, and the waste <2723 chorbah > places

of the fat <4220 meach > ones shall strangers <1481 guwr > eat

<0398 >akal >.

18. Woe <1945 howy > unto them that draw <4900 mashak >

iniquity <5771 <avon > with cords <2256 chebel > of vanity <7723

shav> >, and sin <2402 chatta>ah > as it were with a cart <5699

19 That say <0559 >amar >, Let him make speed <4116 mahar >,

[and] hasten <2363 chuwsh > his work <4639 ma<aseh >, that we

may see <7200 ra>ah > [it]: and let the counsel <6098 <etsah >

nigh <7126 qarab > and come <0935 bow> >, that we may know <3045

20 Woe <1945 howy > unto them that call <0559 >amar > evil

<7451 ra< > good <2896 towb >, and good <2896 towb > evil <7451

ra< >; that put <7760 suwm > darkness <2822 choshek > for light

21 Woe <1945 howy > unto [them that are] wise <2450 chakam > in

their own eyes <5869 <ayin >, and prudent <0995 biyn > in their

own sight <6440 paniym >!

22 Woe <1945 howy > unto [them that are] mighty <1368 gibbowr >

to drink <8354 shathah > wine <3196 yayin >, and men <0582

>enowsh > of strength <2428 chayil > to mingle <4537 macak >

strong drink <7941 shekar >:

23 Which justify <6663 tsadaq > the wicked <7563 rasha< > for

reward <7810 shachad >, and take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr >

the righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > of the righteous <6662

tsaddiyq > from him!

24 Therefore <3651 ken > as the fire <0784 >esh > devoureth

<0398 >akal > the stubble <7179 qash >, and the flame <3852

lehabah > consumeth <7503 raphah > the chaff <2842 chashash >,

[so] their root <8328 sheresh > shall be as rottenness <4716 maq

dust <80>: because <3588 kiy > they have cast <3988 ma>ac > away

the law <8451 towrah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> >, and despised <5006 na>ats > the word <0565

Yisra>el >.

25 Therefore is the anger <0639 >aph > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > kindled <2734 charah > against his people <5971 <am >,

and he hath stretched <5186 natah > forth his hand <3027 yad >

against <5921 <al > them, and hath smitten <5221 nakah > them:

and the hills <2022 har > did tremble <7264 ragaz >, and their

carcases <5038 n@belah > [were] torn <5478 cuwchah > in the

<7725 shuwb > away, but his hand <3027 yad > [is] stretched

<5186 natah > out still <5750 <owd >.

26 And he will lift <5375 nasa> > up an ensign <5251 nec > to

the nations <1471 gowy > from far <7350 rachowq >, and will hiss

<8319 sharaq > unto them from the end <7097 qatseh > of the

earth <0776 >erets >: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, they shall

come <0935 bow> > with speed <4120 m@herah > swiftly <7031 qal >:

27 None <0369 >ayin > shall be weary <5889 <ayeph > nor <3808

slumber <5123 nuwm > nor <3808 lo> > sleep <3463 yashen >;

neither <3808 lo> > shall the girdle <0232 >ezowr > of their

the latchet <8288 s@rowk > of their shoes <5275 na<al > be

broken <5423 nathaq >:

28 Whose <0834 >aher > arrows <2671 chets > [are] sharp <8150

shanan >, and all <3605 kol > their bows <7198 qesheth > bent

<1869 darak >, their horses <5483 cuwc >' hoofs <6541 parcah >

shall be counted <2803 chashab > like flint <6864 tsor >, and

their wheels <1534 galgal > like a whirlwind:

29 Their roaring <7581 sh@agah > [shall be] like a lion <3833

none <0369 >ayin > shall deliver <5337 natsal > [it].

30 And in that day <3117 yowm > they shall roar <5098 naham >

against <5921 <al > them like the roaring <5100 n@hamah > of the

sea <3220 yam >: and if [one] look <5027 nabat > unto the land

<0776 >erets >, behold <2009 hinneh > darkness <2822 choshek >

[and] sorrow <6862 tsar >, and the light <0216 >owr > is

darkened <2821 chashak > in the heavens <6183 <ariyph > thereof.

Isaiah 6

4 And the posts <0520 >ammah > of the door <5592 caph > moved

<5128 nuwa< > at the voice <6963 qowl > of him that cried <7121

qara> >, and the house <1004 bayith > was filled <4390 male> >

with smoke <6227 <ashan >.

5. Then said <0559 >amar > I, Woe <0188 >owy > [is] me! for I

am undone <1820 damah >; because <3588 kiy > I [am] a man <0376

>iysh > of unclean <2931 tame> > lips <8193 saphah >, and I

dwell <3427 yashab > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a people

<5971 <am > of unclean <2931 tame> > lips <8193 saphah >: for

mine eyes <5869 <ayin > have seen <7200 ra>ah > the King <4428

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

6 Then flew <5774 <uwph > one <0259 >echad > of the seraphims

<8314 saraph > unto me, having a live <7531 ritspah > coal <7531

ritspah > in his hand <3027 yad >, [which] he had taken <3947

laqach > with the tongs <4457 melqach > from off <5921 <al > the

altar <4196 mizbeach >:

7 And he laid <5060 naga< > [it] upon my mouth <6310 peh >, and

said <0559 >amar >, Lo <2009 hinneh >, this <2088 zeh > hath

touched <5060 naga< > thy lips <8193 saphah >; and thine

iniquity <5771 <avon > is taken <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr >,

and thy sin <2403 chatta>ah > purged <3722 kaphar >.

8 Also I heard <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the

Lord <0136 >Adonay >, saying <0559 >amar >, Whom shall I send

<7971 shalach >, and who <4310 miy > will go <3212 yalak > for

us? Then said <0559 >amar > I, Here <2005 hen > [am] I; send

<7971 shalach > me.

9. And he said <0559 >amar >, Go <3212 yalak >, and tell <0559

ye indeed, but understand <0995 biyn > not; and see <7200 ra>ah

10 Make the heart <3820 leb > of this <2088 zeh > people <5971

<am > fat <8082 shamen >, and make their ears <0241 >ozen >

heavy <3513 kabad >, and shut <8173 sha<a< > their eyes <5869

<ayin >; lest <6435 pen > they see <7200 ra>ah > with their eyes

<5869 <ayin >, and hear <8085 shama< > with their ears <0241

>ozen >, and understand <0995 biyn > with their heart <3824

lebab >, and convert <7725 shuwb >, and be healed <7495 rapha> >.

11 Then said <0559 >amar > I, Lord <0136 >Adonay >, how <5704

<ad > long <5704 <ad >? And he answered <0559 >amar >, Until

<5704 <ad > the cities <5892 <iyr > be wasted <7582 sha>ah >

without <0369 >ayin > inhabitant <3427 yashab >, and the houses

<1004 bayith > without <0369 >ayin > man <0120 >adam >, and the

land <0127 >adamah > be utterly desolate <8077 sh@mamah >,

12 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have removed <7368 rachaq > men

<0120 >adam > far <7368 rachaq > away, and [there be] a great

<7227 rab > forsaking <5805 <azuwbah > in the midst <7130 qereb

13 But yet <5750 <owd > in it [shall be] a tenth <6224 <asiyriy

ba<ar >: as a teil <0424 >elah > tree, and as an oak <0437

[is] in them, when <0834 >aher > they cast <7995 shalleketh >

[their leaves: so] the holy <6944 qodesh > seed <2233 zera< >

[shall be] the substance <4678 matstsebeth > thereof.

Isaiah 7

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the days <3117 yowm >

of Ahaz <0271 >Achaz > the son <1121 ben > of Jotham <3147

Yowtham >, the son <1121 ben > of Uzziah <5818 <Uzziyah >, king

<4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, [that] Rezin the king

<4428 melek > of Syria <0758 >Aram >, and Pekah <6492 Peqach >

the son <1121 ben > of Remaliah <7425 R@malyahuw >, king <4428

melek > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, went <5927 <alah > up toward

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > to war <4421 milchamah > against

<5921 <al > it, but could <3201 yakol > not prevail <3898 lacham

2 And it was told <5046 nagad > the house <1004 bayith > of

David <1732 David >, saying <0559 >amar >, Syria <0758 >Aram >

is confederate <5117 nuwach > with Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >.

And his heart <3824 lebab > was moved <5128 nuwa< >, and the

heart <3824 lebab > of his people <5971 <am >, as the trees

<6086 <ets > of the wood <3293 ya<ar > are moved <5128 nuwa< >

with the wind <7307 ruwach >.

3 Then said <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto Isaiah

<3470 Y@sha<yah >, Go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > now

<4994 na> > to meet <7125 qir>ah > Ahaz <0271 >Achaz >, thou,

and Shearjashub <7610 Sh@>ar Yashuwb > thy son <1121 ben >, at

highway <4546 m@cillah > of the fuller's <3526 kabac > field

<7704 sadeh >;

4 And say <0559 >amar > unto him, Take heed <8104 shamar >, and

be quiet <8252 shaqat >; fear <3372 yare> > not, neither <0408

>al > be fainthearted <3824 lebab > for the two <8147 sh@nayim >

tails <2180 zanab > of these <0428 >el-leh > smoking <6226

<ashen > firebrands <0181 >uwd >, for the fierce <2750 choriy >

anger <0639 >aph > of Rezin <7526 R@tsiyn > with Syria <0758

>Aram >, and of the son <1121 ben > of Remaliah <7425 R@malyahuw

5 Because Syria <0758 >Aram >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >, and

the son <1121 ben > of Remaliah <7425 R@malyahuw >, have taken

evil <7451 ra< > counsel <3289 ya<ats > against <5921 <al > thee,

saying <0559 >amar >,

6 Let us go <5927 <alah > up against Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >,

and vex <6972 quwts > it, and let us make a breach <1234 baqa< >

therein for us, and set a king <4428 melek > in the midst <8432

tavek > of it, [even] the son <1121 ben > of Tabeal <2870

tab@>el >:

7 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >

GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, It shall not stand <6965 quwm >, neither

<3808 lo> > shall it come <1961 hayah > to pass.

8 For the head <7218 ro>sh > of Syria <0758 >Aram > [is]

Damascus <1834 Dammeseq >, and the head <7218 ro>sh > of

Damascus <1834 Dammeseq > [is] Rezin <7526 R@tsiyn >; and within

threescore <7657 shib<iym. > and five <2568 chamesh > years

<8141 shaneh > shall Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > be broken <2844

chath >, that it be not a people <5971 <am >.

9 And the head <7218 ro>sh > of Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > [is]

Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >, and the head <7218 ro>sh > of Samaria

<8111 Shom@rown > [is] Remaliah's <7425 R@malyahuw > son <1121

ben >. If <0518 >im > ye will not believe <0539 >aman >, surely

<3588 kiy > ye shall not be established <0539 >aman >.

10. Moreover the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spake <1696 dabar > again

<3254 yacaph > unto Ahaz <0271 >Achaz >, saying <0559 >amar >,

11 Ask <7592 sha>al > thee a sign <0226 >owth > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym >; ask <7592 sha>al > it

either in the depth <6009 <amaq >, or <0176 >ow > in the height

<1361 gabahh > above <4605 ma<al >.

12 But Ahaz <0271 >Achaz > said <0559 >amar >, I will not ask

<7592 sha>al >, neither <3808 lo> > will I tempt <5254 nacah >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

13 And he said <0559 >amar >, Hear <8085 shama< > ye now <4994

na> >, O house <1004 bayith > of David <1732 David >; [Is it] a

small <4592 m@<at > thing for you to weary <3811 la>ah > men

<0582 >enowsh >, but will ye weary <3811 la>ah > my God <0430

14 Therefore <3651 ken > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > himself <1931

huw> > shall give <5414 nathan > you a sign <0226 >owth >;

Behold <2009 hinneh >, a virgin <5959 <almah > shall conceive

<2030 hareh >, and bear <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >, and

shall call <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Immanuel <6005

<Immanuw>el >.

15 Butter <2529 chem>ah > and honey <1706 d@bash > shall he eat

<0398 >akal >, that he may know <3045 yada< > to refuse <3988

ma>ac > the evil <7451 ra< >, and choose <0977 bachar > the good

<2896 towb >.

16 For before <2962 terem > the child <5288 na<ar > shall know

<3045 yada< > to refuse <3988 ma>ac > the evil <7451 ra< >, and

choose <0977 bachar > the good <2896 towb >, the land <0127

<5800 <azab > of both <8147 sh@nayim > her kings <4428 melek >.

17. The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall bring <0935 bow> > upon thee,

and upon thy people <5971 <am >, and upon thy father's <1>

house <1004 bayith >, days <3117 yowm > that have not come <0935

departed <5493 cuwr > from Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >; [even <0853

18 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117

yowm >, [that] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall hiss <8319 sharaq

Mitsrayim >, and for the bee <1682 d@bowrah > that [is] in the

land <0776 >erets > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >.

19 And they shall come <0935 bow> >, and shall rest <5117

nuwach > all <3605 kol > of them in the desolate <1327 battah >

valleys <5158 nachal >, and in the holes <5357 naqiyq > of the

rocks <5553 cela< >, and upon all <3605 kol > thorns <5285

na<atsuwts >, and upon all <3605 kol > bushes <5097 nahalol >.

20 In the same <1931 huw> > day <3117 yowm > shall the Lord

<0136 >Adonay > shave <1548 galach > with a razor <8593 ta<ar >

that is hired <7917 s@kiyrah >, [namely], by them beyond <5676

Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >, the head <7218 ro>sh >, and the hair

<8181 se<ar > of the feet <7272 regel >: and it shall also <1571

gam > consume <5595 caphah > the beard <2206 zaqan >.

21 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117

yowm >, [that] a man <0376 >iysh > shall nourish <2421 chayah >

a young <1241 baqar > cow <5697 <eglah >, and two <8147 sh@nayim

22 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, for the abundance

<7230 rob > of milk <2461 chalab > [that] they shall give <6213

<asah > he shall eat <0398 >akal > butter <2529 chem>ah >: for

butter <2529 chem>ah > and honey <1706 d@bash > shall every

<3605 kol > one eat <0398 >akal > that is left <3498 yathar > in

the land <0776 >erets >.

23 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117

yowm >, [that] every <3605 kol > place <4725 maqowm > shall be,

where <0834 >aher > there were a thousand <0505 >eleph > vines

thorns <7898 shayith >.

24 With arrows <2671 chets > and with bows <7198 qesheth >

shall [men] come <0935 bow> > thither <8033 sham >; because

<3588 kiy > all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > shall become

25 And [on] all <3605 kol > hills <2022 har > that shall be

digged <5737 <adar > with the mattock <4576 ma<der >, there

shall not come <0935 bow> > thither <8033 sham > the fear <3374

but it shall be for the sending <4916 mishlowach > forth of oxen

<7794 showr >, and for the treading <4823 mirmac > of lesser

Isaiah 8

1. Moreover the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto me,

Take <3947 laqach > thee a great <1419 gadowl > roll <1549

gillayown >, and write <3789 kathab > in it with a man's <0582

2 And I took unto me faithful <0539 >aman > witnesses <5707 <ed

3 And I went <7126 qarab > unto the prophetess <5031 n@biy>ah >;

and she conceived <2030 hareh >, and bare <3205 yalad > a son

<4122 Maher Shalal Chash Baz >.

4 For before <2962 terem > the child <5288 na<ar > shall have

my mother <0517 >em >, the riches <2428 chayil > of Damascus

Shom@rown > shall be taken <5375 nasa> > away before <6440

paniym > the king <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >.

5 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spake <1696 dabar > also unto me

again <3254 yacaph >, saying <0559 >amar >,

6 Forasmuch as this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > refuseth

7 Now therefore <3651 ken >, behold <2009 hinneh >, the Lord

9. Associate <7489 ra<a< > yourselves, O ye people <5971 <am >,

and ye shall be broken <2844 chath > in pieces; and give ear

<0238 >azan >, all <3605 kol > ye of far <4801 merchaq >

yourselves, and ye shall be broken <2844 chath > in pieces.

10 Take counsel <6098 <etsah > together, and it shall come to

nought <6565 parar >; speak <1696 dabar > the word <1697 dabar >,

and it shall not stand <6965 quwm >: for God <0410 >el > [is]

11 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spake <0559 >amar > thus <3541

instructed <3256 yacar > me that I should not walk <3212 yalak >

saying <0559 >amar >,

12 Say <0559 >amar > ye not, A confederacy <7195 qesher >, to

all <3605 kol > [them to] whom <0834 >aher > this <2088 zeh >

13 Sanctify <6942 qadash > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> > himself; and [let] him [be] your fear <4172

mowra> >, and [let] him [be] your dread <6206 <arats >.

14 And he shall be for a sanctuary <4720 miqdash >; but for a

stone <68> of stumbling <5063 negeph > and for a rock <6697

tsuwr > of offence <4383 mikshowl > to both <8147 sh@nayim > the

houses <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, for a gin

<3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.

15 And many <7227 rab > among them shall stumble <3782 kashal >,

and fall <5307 naphal >, and be broken <7665 shabar >, and be

snared <3369 yaqosh >, and be taken <3920 lakad >.

16. Bind <6887 tsarar > up the testimony <8584 t@<uwdah >, seal

<2856 chatham > the law <8451 towrah > among my disciples <3928

17 And I will wait <2442 chakah > upon the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

that hideth <5641 cathar > his face <6440 paniym > from the

house <1004 bayith > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and I will look

<6960 qavah > for him.

18 Behold <2009 hinneh >, I and the children <3206 yeled > whom

<0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath given <5414 nathan >

me [are] for signs <0226 >owth > and for wonders <4159 mowpheth

19 And when <3588 kiy > they shall say <0559 >amar > unto you,

Seek <1875 darash > unto them that have familiar spirits <0178

for the living <2416 chay > to the dead <4191 muwth >?

20 To the law <8451 towrah > and to the testimony <8584

because <0834 >aher > [there is] no <0369 >ayin > light <7837

21 And they shall pass <5674 <abar > through it, hardly <7185

22 And they shall look <5027 nabat > unto the earth <0776

darkness <2825 chashekah >, dimness <4588 ma<uwph > of anguish

darkness <0653 >aphelah >.

Isaiah 9

1. Nevertheless <3588 kiy > the dimness <4155 muw<aph > [shall]

not [be] such as [was] in her vexation <4164 muwtsaq >, when

<6256 <eth > at the first <7223 ri>shown > he lightly <7043

qalal > afflicted <7043 qalal > the land <0776 >erets > of

Zebulun <2074 Z@buwluwn > and the land <0776 >erets > of

Naphtali <5321 Naphtaliy >, and afterward <0314 >acharown > did

more grievously <3513 kabad > afflict <3513 kabad > [her by] the

way <1870 derek > of the sea <3220 yam >, beyond <5676 <eber >

Jordan <3383 Yarden >, in Galilee <1551 Galiyl > of the nations

<1471 gowy >.

2 The people <5971 <am > that walked <1980 halak > in darkness

<2822 choshek > have seen <7200 ra>ah > a great <1419 gadowl >

light <0216 >owr >: they that dwell <3427 yashab > in the land

<0776 >erets > of the shadow <6757 tsalmaveth > of death <6757

tsalmaveth >, upon them hath the light <0216 >owr > shined <5050

nagahh >.

3 Thou hast multiplied <7235 rabah > the nation <1471 gowy >,

[and] not increased <1431 gadal > the joy <8057 simchah >: they

joy <8055 samach > before <6440 paniym > thee according to the

joy <8055 samach > in harvest <7105 qatsiyr >, [and] as [men]

rejoice <1523 giyl > when they divide <2505 chalaq > the spoil

<7998 shalal >.

4 For thou hast broken <2865 chathath > the yoke <5923 <ol > of

his burden <5448 cobel >, and the staff <4294 matteh > of his

shoulder <7926 sh@kem >, the rod <7626 shebet > of his oppressor

<5065 nagas >, as in the day <3117 yowm > of Midian <4080 Midyan

5 For every <3605 kol > battle <5430 c@>own > of the warrior

<5431 ca>an > [is] with confused <7494 ra<ash > noise, and

garments <8071 simlah > rolled <1556 galal > in blood <1818 dam

<3980 ma>akoleth > of fire <0784 >esh >.

6 For unto us a child <3206 yeled > is born <3205 yalad >, unto

us a son <1121 ben > is given <5414 nathan >: and the government

<4951 misrah > shall be upon his shoulder <7926 sh@kem >: and

his name <8034 shem > shall be called <7121 qara> > Wonderful

<6382 pele> >, Counsellor <3289 ya<ats >, The mighty <1368

gibbowr > God <0410 >el >, The everlasting <5703 <ad > Father

<1>, The Prince <8269 sar > of Peace <7965 shalowm >.

7 Of the increase <4768 marbiyth > of [his] government <4951

David <1732 David >, and upon his kingdom <4467 mamlakah >, to

order <3559 kuwn > it, and to establish <5582 ca<ad > it with

judgment <4941 mishpat > and with justice <6666 ts@daqah > from

henceforth <6258 <attah > even for ever <5769 <owlam >. The zeal

<7068 qin>ah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba>

8. The Lord <3068 Y@hovah > sent <7971 shalach > a word <1697

dabar > into Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and it hath lighted <5307

naphal > upon Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

9 And all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > shall know <3045

yada< >, [even] Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > and the inhabitant

<3427 yashab > of Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >, that say <0559

of heart <3824 lebab >,

10 The bricks <3843 l@benah > are fallen <5307 naphal > down,

but we will build <1129 banah > with hewn <1496 gaziyth > stones

<1496 gaziyth >: the sycomores <8256 shaqam > are cut <1438

gada< > down <1438 gada< >, but we will change <2498 chalaph >

[them into] cedars <0730 >erez >.

11 Therefore the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall set <7682 sagab >

up the adversaries <6862 tsar > of Rezin <7526 R@tsiyn > against

<5921 <al > him, and join <5526 cakak > his enemies <0341 >oyeb

12 The Syrians <0758 >Aram > before <6924 qedem >, and the

Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy > behind <0268 >achowr >; and they

shall devour <0398 >akal > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > with open

<6605 pathach > mouth <6310 peh >. For all <3605 kol > this

<2063 zo>th > his anger <0639 >aph > is not turned <7725 shuwb >

away, but his hand <3027 yad > [is] stretched <5186 natah > out

still <5750 <owd >.

13 For the people <5971 <am > turneth <7725 shuwb > not unto

him that smiteth <5221 nakah > them, neither <3808 lo> > do they

seek <1875 darash > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635

tsaba> >.

14 Therefore the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will cut <3772 karath >

off from Israel <3478 Yisra>el > head <7218 ro>sh > and tail

<2180 zanab >, branch <3712 kippah > and rush <0100 >agmown >,

in one <0259 >echad > day <3117 yowm >.

15 The ancient <2204 zaqen > and honourable, he [is] the head

<7218 ro>sh >; and the prophet <5030 nabiy> > that teacheth

<3384 yarah > lies <8267 sheqer >, he [is] the tail <2180 zanab

16 For the leaders <0833 >ashar > of this <2088 zeh > people

<5971 <am > cause [them] to err <8582 ta<ah >; and [they that

are] led <0833 >ashar > of them [are] destroyed <1104 bala< >.

17 Therefore the Lord <0136 >Adonay > shall have no <3808 lo> >

joy <8055 samach > in their young <0970 bachuwr > men, neither

<3808 lo> > shall have mercy <7355 racham > on their fatherless

<3490 yathowm > and widows <0490 >almanah >: for every <3605 kol

ra<a< >, and every <3605 kol > mouth <6310 peh > speaketh <1696

dabar > folly <5039 n@balah >. For all <3605 kol > this <2063

zo>th > his anger <0639 >aph > is not turned <7725 shuwb > away,

but his hand <3027 yad > [is] stretched <5186 natah > out still

<5750 <owd >.

18 For wickedness <7564 rish<ah > burneth <1197 ba<ar > as the

fire <0784 >esh >: it shall devour <0398 >akal > the briers

<8068 shamiyr > and thorns <7898 shayith >, and shall kindle

<3341 yatsath > in the thickets <5442 c@bak > of the forest

<3293 ya<ar >, and they shall mount <55> up [like] the lifting

<1348 ge>uwth > up of smoke <6227 <ashan >.

19 Through the wrath <5678 <ebrah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

of hosts <6635 tsaba> > is the land <0776 >erets > darkened

<6272 <atham >, and the people <5971 <am > shall be as the fuel

<3980 ma>akoleth > of the fire <0784 >esh >: no <3808 lo> > man

<0376 >iysh > shall spare <2550 chamal > his brother <0251 >ach

20 And he shall snatch <1504 gazar > on <5921 <al > the right

<3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >, and be hungry <7456 ra<eb >;

and he shall eat <0398 >akal > on <5921 <al > the left <8040

s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl >, and they shall not be satisfied

<7646 saba< >: they shall eat <0398 >akal > every man <0376

21 Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >; and

Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >, Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh >: [and]

they together <3162 yachad > [shall be] against <5921 <al >

Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >. For all <3605 kol > this <2063 zo>th >

his anger <0639 >aph > is not turned <7725 shuwb > away, but his

hand <3027 yad > [is] stretched <5186 natah > out still <5750

<owd >.

Isaiah 10

1. Woe <1945 howy > unto them that decree <2710 chaqaq >

unrighteous <0205 >aven > decrees <2711 cheqeq >, and that write

<3789 kathab > grievousness <5999 <amal > [which] they have

prescribed <3789 kathab >;

2 To turn <5186 natah > aside <5186 natah > the needy <1800 dal

<1497 gazal > the right <4941 mishpat > from the poor <6041

may be their prey <7998 shalal >, and [that] they may rob <0962

bazaz > the fatherless <3490 yathowm >!

3 And what <4100 mah > will ye do <6213 <asah > in the day

<3117 yowm > of visitation <6486 p@quddah >, and in the

desolation <7722 show> > [which] shall come <0935 bow> > from

<5800 <azab > your glory <3519 kabowd >?

4 Without <1115 biltiy > me they shall bow <3766 kara< > down

<3766 kara< > under <8478 tachath > the prisoners <0616 >acciyr

slain <2026 harag >. For all <3605 kol > this <2063 zo>th > his

anger <0639 >aph > is not turned <7725 shuwb > away, but his

hand <3027 yad > [is] stretched <5186 natah > out still <5750

5. O Assyrian <0804 >Ashshuwr >, the rod <7626 shebet > of mine

anger <0639 >aph >, and the staff <4294 matteh > in their hand

<3027 yad > is mine indignation <2195 za<am >.

6 I will send <7971 shalach > him against an hypocritical <2611

chaneph > nation <1471 gowy >, and against <5921 <al > the

people <5971 <am > of my wrath <5678 <ebrah > will I give him a

charge <6680 tsavah >, to take <7997 shalal > the spoil <7998

tread <4823 mirmac > them down like the mire <2563 chomer > of

the streets <2351 chuwts >.

7 Howbeit he meaneth <1819 damah > not so <3651 ken >, neither

<3808 lo> > doth his heart <3824 lebab > think <2803 chashab >

so <3651 ken >; but [it is] in his heart <3824 lebab > to

destroy <8045 shamad > and cut <3772 karath > off nations <1471

gowy > not a few <4592 m@<at >.

8 For he saith <0559 >amar >, [Are] not my princes <8269 sar >

altogether <3162 yachad > kings <4428 melek >?

9 [Is] not Calno <3641 Kalneh > as Carchemish <3751 Kark@miysh

not Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > as Damascus <1834 Dammeseq >?

10 As my hand <3027 yad > hath found <4672 matsa> > the

kingdoms <4467 mamlakah > of the idols <0457 >eliyl >, and whose

graven <6456 p@ciyl > images did excel them of Jerusalem <3389

Y@ruwshalaim > and of Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >;

11 Shall I not, as I have done <6466 pa<al > unto Samaria <8111

Shom@rown > and her idols <0457 >eliyl >, so <3651 ken > do

<6213 <asah > to Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > and her idols

<6091 <atsab >?

12 Wherefore it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, [that] when

<3588 kiy > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > hath performed <1214 batsa<

<6726 Tsiyown > and on Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, I will

punish <6485 paqad > the fruit <6529 p@riy > of the stout <1433

godel > heart <3824 lebab > of the king <4428 melek > of Assyria

<0804 >Ashshuwr >, and the glory <8597 tiph>arah > of his high

<7312 ruwm > looks <5869 <ayin >.

13 For he saith <0559 >amar >, By the strength <3581 koach > of

my hand <3027 yad > I have done <6466 pa<al > [it], and by my

wisdom <2451 chokmah >; for I am prudent <0995 biyn >: and I

have removed <5493 cuwr > the bounds <1367 g@buwlah > of the

people <5971 <am >, and have robbed <8154 shacah > their

treasures <6259 <athuwd >, and I have put <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > like a valiant

<3524 kabbiyr > [man]:

14 And my hand <3027 yad > hath found <4672 matsa> > as a nest

<7064 qen > the riches <2428 chayil > of the people <5971 <am >:

and as one gathereth <0622 >acaph > eggs <1000 beytsah > [that

are] left <5800 <azab >, have I gathered <0622 >acaph > all

<3605 kol > the earth <0776 >erets >; and there was none <3808

lo> > that moved <5074 nadad > the wing <3671 kanaph >, or

opened <6473 pa<ar > the mouth <6310 peh >, or peeped <6850

tsaphaph >.

15 Shall the axe <1631 garzen > boast <6286 pa>ar > itself

against <5921 <al > him that heweth <2672 chatsab > therewith?

[or] shall the saw <4883 massowr > magnify <1431 gadal > itself

against <5921 <al > him that shaketh <5130 nuwph > it? as if the

rod <7626 shebet > should shake <5130 nuwph > [itself] against

them that lift <7311 ruwm > it up, [or] as if the staff <4294

matteh > should lift <7311 ruwm > up [itself, as if it were] no

<3808 lo> > wood <6086 <ets >.

16 Therefore <3651 ken > shall the Lord <0113 >adown >, the

Lord <0136 >Adonay > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, send <7971 shalach

and under <8478 tachath > his glory <3519 kabowd > he shall

kindle <3344 yaqad > a burning <3350 y@qowd > like the burning

<3345 y@qad > of a fire <0784 >esh >.

17 And the light <0216 >owr > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > shall

be for a fire <0784 >esh >, and his Holy <6918 qadowsh > One for

a flame <3852 lehabah >: and it shall burn <1197 ba<ar > and

devour <0398 >akal > his thorns <7898 shayith > and his briers

<8068 shamiyr > in one <0259 >echad > day <3117 yowm >;

18 And shall consume <3615 kalah > the glory <3519 kabowd > of

his forest <3293 ya<ar >, and of his fruitful <3759 karmel >

field, both soul <5315 nephesh > and body <1320 basar >: and

they shall be as when a standardbearer <5264 nacac > fainteth

<4549 macac >.

19 And the rest <7605 sh@>ar > of the trees <6086 <ets > of his

forest <3293 ya<ar > shall be few <4557 micpar >, that a child

<5288 na<ar > may write <3789 kathab > them.

20. And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117

yowm >, [that] the remnant <7605 sh@>ar > of Israel <3478

One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, in truth <0571 >emeth >.

21 The remnant <7605 sh@>ar > shall return <7725 shuwb >,

[even] the remnant <7605 sh@>ar > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, unto

the mighty <1368 gibbowr > God <0410 >el >.

22 For though <0518 >im > thy people <5971 <am > Israel <3478

[yet] a remnant <7605 sh@>ar > of them shall return <7725 shuwb

23 For the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of hosts

kalah >, even determined <2782 charats >, in the midst <7130

24. Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of hosts <6635

tsaba> >, O my people <5971 <am > that dwellest <3427 yashab >

in Zion <6726 Tsiyown >, be not afraid <3372 yare> > of the

25 For yet <5750 <owd > a very <4213 miz<ar > little <4592

26 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > shall

stir <5782 <uwr > up a scourge <7752 showt > for him according

to the slaughter <4347 makkah > of Midian <4080 Midyan > at the

rock <6697 tsuwr > of Oreb <6157 <arob >: and [as] his rod <4294

27 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117

28 He is come <0935 bow> > to Aiath <5857 <Ay >, he is passed

29 They are gone <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > the passage

30 Lift <6670 tsahal > up thy voice <6963 qowl >, O daughter

Anathoth <6068 <Anathowth >.

31 Madmenah <4088 Madmenah > is removed <5074 nadad >; the

inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Gebim <1374 Gebiym > gather <5756

32 As yet <5750 <owd > shall he remain <5975 <amad > at Nob

<5011 Nob > that day <3117 yowm >: he shall shake <5130 nuwph >

his hand <3027 yad > [against] the mount <2022 har > of the

11 And I will punish <6485 paqad > the world <8398 tebel > for

17 Behold <2005 hen >, I will stir <5782 <uwr > up the Medes

shake <7493 ra<ash > kingdoms <4467 mamlakah >;

17 [That] made <7760 suwm > the world <8398 tebel > as a

wilderness <4057 midbar >, and destroyed <2040 harac > the

cities <5892 <iyr > thereof; [that] opened <6605 pathach > not

18 All <3605 kol > the kings <4428 melek > of the nations <1471

19 But thou art cast <7993 shalak > out of thy grave <6913

20 Thou shalt not be joined <3161 yachad > with them in burial

thy people <5971 <am >: the seed <2233 zera< > of evildoers

21 Prepare <3559 kuwn > slaughter <4293 matbeach > for his

the face <6440 paniym > of the world <8398 tebel > with cities

22 For I will rise <6965 quwm > up against <5921 <al > them,

saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635

the name <8034 shem >, and remnant <7605 sh@>ar >, and son <5209

23 I will also make <7760 suwm > it a possession <4180 mowrash

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

24. The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > hath sworn

<7650 shaba< >, saying <0559 >amar >, Surely as I have thought

<1819 damah >, so shall it come <1961 hayah > to pass; and as I

<6965 quwm >:

25 That I will break <7665 shabar > the Assyrian <0804

from off <5921 <al > their shoulders <7926 sh@kem >.

26 This <2063 zo>th > [is] the purpose <6098 <etsah > that is

purposed <3289 ya<ats > upon the whole <3605 kol > earth <0776

is stretched <5186 natah > out upon all <3605 kol > the nations

27 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > hath

purposed <3289 ya<ats >, and who <4310 miy > shall disannul

28 In the year <8141 shaneh > that king <4428 melek > Ahaz

29 Rejoice <8055 samach > not thou, whole <3605 kol > Palestina

him that smote <5221 nakah > thee is broken <7665 shabar >: for

out of the serpent's <5175 nachash > root <8328 sheresh > shall

30 And the firstborn <1060 b@kowr > of the poor <1800 dal >

31 Howl <3213 yalal >, O gate <8179 sha<ar >; cry <2199 za<aq >,

O city <5892 <iyr >; thou, whole <3605 kol > Palestina <6429

32 What <4100 mah > shall [one] then answer <6030 <anah > the

messengers <4397 mal>ak > of the nation <1471 gowy >? That the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath founded <3245 yacad > Zion <6726

shall trust <2620 chacah > in it.

Isaiah 15

1. The burden <4853 massa> > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab >. Because

<3588 kiy > in the night <3915 layil > Ar <6144 <Ar > of Moab

<4124 Mow>ab > is laid waste <7703 shadad >, [and] brought <1820

Dibon <1769 Diybown >, the high <1116 bamah > places, to weep

<1065 B@kiy >: Moab <4124 Mow>ab > shall howl <3213 yalal > over

every <3605 kol > one shall howl <3213 yalal >, weeping <1065

B@kiy > abundantly <3381 yarad >.

4 And Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown > shall cry <2199 za<aq >, and

Elealeh <0500 >El<ale> >: their voice <6963 qowl > shall be

heard <8085 shama< > [even] unto Jahaz <3096 Yahats >: therefore

the armed <2502 chalats > soldiers <2502 chalats > of Moab <4124

shall be grievous <3415 yara< > unto him.

5 My heart <3820 leb > shall cry <2199 za<aq > out for Moab

Zoar <6820 Tso<ar >, an heifer <5697 <eglah > of three <7992

<1870 derek > of Horonaim <2773 Choronayim > they shall raise

<5782 <uwr > up a cry <2201 za<aq > of destruction <7667 sheber

6. For the waters <4325 mayim > of Nimrim <5249 Nimriym > shall

be desolate <4923 m@shammah >: for the hay <2682 chatsiyr > is

withered <3001 yabesh > away, the grass <1877 deshe> > faileth

<3615 kalah >, there is no <3808 lo> > green <3418 yereq > thing.

7 Therefore the abundance <3502 yithrah > they have gotten

shall they carry <5375 nasa> > away to the brook <5158 nachal >

of the willows <6155 <arab >.

8 For the cry <2201 za<aq > is gone <5362 naqaph > round <5362

the howling <3213 yalal > thereof unto Eglaim <97>, and the

9 For the waters <4325 mayim > of Dimon <1775 Diymown > shall

Isaiah 16

1. Send <7971 shalach > ye the lamb <3733 kar > to the ruler

[so] the daughters <1121 ben > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > shall be

4 Let mine outcasts <5080 nadach > dwell <1481 guwr > with thee,

Moab <4124 Mow>ab >; be thou a covert <5643 cether > to them

from the face <6440 paniym > of the spoiler <7703 shadad >: for

the extortioner <4160 muwts > is at an end <0657 >ephec >, the

5 And in mercy <2617 checed > shall the throne <3678 kicce> >

6. We have heard <8085 shama< > of the pride <1347 ga>own > of

<1347 ga>own >, and his wrath <5678 <ebrah >: [but] his lies

7 Therefore <3651 ken > shall Moab <4124 Mow>ab > howl <3213

howl <3213 yalal >: for the foundations <0808 >ashiysh > of

Kirhareseth <7025 Qiyr Cheres > shall ye mourn <1897 hagah >;

surely <0389 >ak > [they are] stricken <5218 nake> >.

8 For the fields <7709 sh@demah > of Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown >

languish <0535 >amal >, [and] the vine <1612 gephen > of Sibmah

<7643 S@bam >: the lords <1167 ba<al > of the heathen <1471 gowy

<5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > the sea <3220 yam >.

9 Therefore I will bewail <1058 bakah > with the weeping <1065

B@kiy > of Jazer <3270 Ya<azeyr > the vine <1612 gephen > of

Sibmah <7643 S@bam >: I will water <7301 ravah > thee with my

tears <1832 dim<ah >, O Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown >, and Elealeh

<7019 qayits > fruits and for thy harvest <7105 qatsiyr > is

fallen <5307 naphal >.

10 And gladness <8057 simchah > is taken <0622 >acaph > away,

and joy <1524 giyl > out of the plentiful <3759 karmel > field;

and in the vineyards <3754 kerem > there shall be no <3808 lo> >

11 Wherefore my bowels <4578 me<ah > shall sound <1993 hamah >

like an harp <3658 kinnowr > for Moab <4124 Mow>ab >, and mine

inward <7130 qereb > parts for Kirharesh <7025 Qiyr Cheres >.

12 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, when <3588 kiy > it

13 This <2008 hennah > [is] the word <1697 dabar > that the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath spoken <1696 dabar > concerning <0413

Isaiah 17

Behold <2009 hinneh >, Damascus <1834 Dammeseq > is taken <5493

2 The cities <5892 <iyr > of Aroer <6177 <Arow<er > [are]

forsaken <5800 <azab >: they shall be for flocks <5739 <eder >,

which shall lie <7257 rabats > down <7257 rabats >, and none

3 The fortress <4013 mibtsar > also shall cease <7673 shabath >

4 And in that day <3117 yowm > it shall come <1961 hayah > to

5 And it shall be as when the harvestman <7105 qatsiyr >

6. Yet gleaning <5955 <olelah > grapes shall be left <7604

9. In that day <3117 yowm > shall his strong <4581 ma<owz >

10 Because <3588 kiy > thou hast forgotten <7911 shakach > the

not been mindful <2142 zakar > of the rock <6697 tsuwr > of thy

12. Woe <1945 howy > to the multitude <1995 hamown > of many

13 The nations <3816 l@om > shall rush <7582 sha>ah > like the

Isaiah 19

1. The burden <4853 massa> > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >. Behold

<2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > rideth <7392 rakab >

upon a swift <7031 qal > cloud <5645 <ab >, and shall come <0935

presence <6440 paniym >, and the heart <3824 lebab > of Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim > shall melt <4549 macac > in the midst <7130

qereb > of it.

2 And I will set <5526 cakak > the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >

against the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >: and they shall fight

<3898 lacham > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > against his

brother <0251 >ach >, and every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh >

against his neighbour <7453 rea< >; city <5892 <iyr > against

city <5892 <iyr >, [and] kingdom <4467 mamlakah > against

kingdom <4467 mamlakah >.

3 And the spirit <7307 ruwach > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >

shall fail <1238 baqaq > in the midst <7130 qereb > thereof; and

I will destroy <1104 bala< > the counsel <6098 <etsah > thereof:

and they shall seek <1875 darash > to the idols <0457 >eliyl >,

and to the charmers <0328 >at >, and to them that have familiar

spirits <0178 >owb >, and to the wizards <3049 yidd@<oniy >.

4 And the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > will I give <5534 caker >

over <5534 caker > into the hand <3027 yad > of a cruel <7186

n@>um > the Lord <0113 >adown >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

5 And the waters <4325 mayim > shall fail <5405 nashath > from

the sea <3220 yam >, and the river <5104 nahar > shall be wasted

<2717 charab > and dried <3001 yabesh > up.

6 And they shall turn <2186 zanach > the rivers <5104 nahar >

far away; [and] the brooks <2975 y@<or > of defence <4692

wither <7060 qamal >.

7 The paper <6169 <arah > reeds by the brooks <2975 y@<or >, by

the mouth <6310 peh > of the brooks <2975 y@<or >, and every

<3605 kol > thing sown <4218 mizra< > by the brooks <2975 y@<or

and be no <0369 >ayin > [more].

8 The fishers <1771 dayag > also shall mourn <0578 >anah >, and

all <3605 kol > they that cast <7993 shalak > angle <2443

chakkah > into the brooks <2975 y@<or > shall lament <56>, and

they that spread <6566 paras > nets <4364 makmar > upon the

waters <4325 mayim > shall languish <0535 >amal >.

9 Moreover they that work <5647 <abad > in fine <8305 s@riyqah

networks <2355 chowr >, shall be confounded <0954 buwsh >.

10 And they shall be broken <1792 daka> > in the purposes <8356

sluices <7938 seker > [and] ponds <99> for fish <5315 nephesh >.

11 Surely <0389 >ak > the princes <8269 sar > of Zoan <6814

Tso<an > [are] fools <0191 >eviyl >, the counsel <6098 <etsah >

13 The princes <8269 sar > of Zoan <6814 Tso<an > are become

<2973 ya>al > fools <2973 ya>al >, the princes <8269 sar > of

Noph <5297 Noph > are deceived <5377 nasha> >; they have also

seduced <8582 ta<ah > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, [even they that

are] the stay <6438 pinnah > of the tribes <7626 shebet >

thereof.

14 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath mingled <4537 macak > a

perverse <5773 <av<eh > spirit <7307 ruwach > in the midst <7130

qereb > thereof: and they have caused Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > to

err <8582 ta<ah > in every <3605 kol > work <4639 ma<aseh >

thereof, as a drunken <7910 shikkowr > [man] staggereth <8582

15 Neither <3808 lo> > shall there be [any] work <4639 ma<aseh

tail <2180 zanab >, branch <3712 kippah > or rush <0100 >agmown

16 In that day <3117 yowm > shall Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > be

like unto women <0802 >ishshah >: and it shall be afraid <2729

charad > and fear <6342 pachad > because <6440 paniym > of the

shaking <8573 t@nuwphah > of the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, which <0834 >aher > he

shaketh <5130 nuwph > over <5921 <al > it.

17 And the land <0127 >adamah > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > shall

be a terror <2283 chagra> > unto Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, every

<3605 kol > one that maketh mention <2142 zakar > thereof shall

be afraid <6342 pachad > in himself, because <6440 paniym > of

the counsel <6098 <etsah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> >, which <0834 >aher > he hath determined <3289

ya<ats > against <5921 <al > it.

18. In that day <3117 yowm > shall five <2568 chamesh > cities

called <0559 >amar >, The city <5892 <iyr > of destruction <2041

19 In that day <3117 yowm > shall there be an altar <4196

20 And it shall be for a sign <0226 >owth > and for a witness

<5707 <ed > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba>

shall send <7971 shalach > them a saviour <3467 yasha< >, and a

great <7227 rab > one, and he shall deliver <5337 natsal > them.

21 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall be known <3045 yada< > to

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, and the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >

shall know <3045 yada< > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > in that day

<7999 shalam > [it].

22 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall smite <5062 nagaph >

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >: he shall smite <5062 nagaph > and heal

<7495 rapha> > [it]: and they shall return <7725 shuwb > [even]

23 In that day <3117 yowm > shall there be a highway <4546

<0804 >Ashshuwr >.

24 In that day <3117 yowm > shall Israel <3478 Yisra>el > be

Blessed <1288 barak > [be] Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > my people

ma<aseh > of my hands <3027 yad >, and Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

mine inheritance <5159 nachalah >.

Isaiah 20

1. In the year <8141 shaneh > that Tartan <8661 Tartan > came

<0935 bow> > unto Ashdod <0795 >Ashdowd >, (when Sargon <5623

Cargown > the king <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >

sent <7971 shalach > him,) and fought <3898 lacham > against

Ashdod <0795 >Ashdowd >, and took <3920 lakad > it;

2 At the same <1931 huw> > time <6256 <eth > spake <1696 dabar

And he did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken >, walking <1980 halak >

naked <6174 <arowm > and barefoot <3182 yacheph >.

3 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, Like as my

Behold <2009 hinneh >, such <3541 koh > [is] our expectation

we escape <4422 malat >?

Isaiah 21

1. The burden <4853 massa> > of the desert <4057 midbar > of

the sea <3220 yam >. As whirlwinds <5492 cuwphah > in the south

<5045 negeb > pass <2498 chalaph > through; [so] it cometh <0935

2 A grievous <7186 qasheh > vision <2380 chazuwth > is declared

3 Therefore are my loins <4975 mothen > filled <4390 male> >

4 My heart <3824 lebab > panted <8582 ta<ah >, fearfulness

<6427 pallatsuwth > affrighted <1204 ba<ath > me: the night

declared <5046 nagad > unto you.

11. The burden <4853 massa> > of Dumah <1746 Duwmah >. He

Watchman <8104 shamar >, what <4100 mah > of the night <3915

12 The watchman <8104 shamar > said <0559 >amar >, The morning

13. The burden <4853 massa> > upon Arabia <6152 < Arab >. In

14 The inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the land <0776 >erets > of

to him that was thirsty <6771 tsame> >, they prevented <6923

bent <1869 darak > bow <7198 qesheth >, and from the

grievousness <3514 kobed > of war <4421 milchamah >.

16 For thus <3541 koh > hath the Lord <0136 >Adonay > said

Isaiah 22

1. The burden <4853 massa> > of the valley <1516 gay> > of

vision <2384 chizzayown >. What <4100 mah > aileth thee now

<0645 >ephow >, that thou art wholly <3605 kol > gone <5927

<alah > up to the housetops <1406 gag >?

2 Thou that art full <4392 male> > of stirs <8663 t@shu>ah >, a

tumultuous <1993 hamah > city <5892 <iyr >, a joyous <5947

<alliyz > city <7151 qiryah >: thy slain <2491 chalal > [men

are] not slain <2491 chalal > with the sword <2719 chereb >, nor

<3808 lo> > dead <4191 muwth > in battle <4421 milchamah >.

3 All <3605 kol > thy rulers <7101 qatsiyn > are fled <5074

nadad > together <3162 yachad >, they are bound <0631 >acar > by

the archers <7198 qesheth >: all <3605 kol > that are found

<4672 matsa> > in thee are bound <0631 >acar > together <3162

yachad >, [which] have fled <1272 barach > from far <7350

rachowq >.

4 Therefore said <0559 >amar > I, Look <8159 sha<ah > away from

me; I will weep <1065 B@kiy > bitterly <4843 marar >, labour

<0213 >uwts > not to comfort <5162 nacham > me, because <5921

<al > of the spoiling <7701 shod > of the daughter <1323 bath >

of my people <5971 <am >.

5 For [it is] a day <3117 yowm > of trouble <4103 m@huwmah >,

and of treading <4001 m@buwcah > down, and of perplexity <3998

m@buwkah > by the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of

hosts <6635 tsaba> > in the valley <1516 gay> > of vision <2384

chizzayown >, breaking <6979 quwr > down the walls <7023 qiyr >,

and of crying <7771 showa< > to the mountains <2022 har >.

6 And Elam <5867 <Eylam > bare <5375 nasa> > the quiver <0827

horsemen <6571 parash >, and Kir <7024 Qiyr > uncovered <6168

<arah > the shield <4043 magen >.

7 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, [that] thy choicest

<4055 mad > valleys <6010 <emeq > shall be full <4390 male> > of

chariots <7393 rekeb >, and the horsemen <6571 parash > shall

set <7896 shiyth > themselves in array <7896 shiyth > at the

gate <8179 sha<ar >.

8. And he discovered <1540 galah > the covering <4539 macak >

of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, and thou didst look <5027 nabat > in

that day <3117 yowm > to the armour <5402 nesheq > of the house

<1004 bayith > of the forest <3293 ya<ar >.

9 Ye have seen <7200 ra>ah > also the breaches <1233 b@qiya< >

of the city <5892 <iyr > of David <1732 David >, that they are

many <7231 rabab >: and ye gathered <6908 qabats > together the

waters <4325 mayim > of the lower <8481 tachtown > pool <1295

b@rekah >.

10 And ye have numbered <5608 caphar > the houses <1004 bayith

<1219 batsar > the wall <2346 chowmah >.

11 Ye made <6213 <asah > also a ditch <4724 miqvah > between

<0996 beyn > the two walls <2346 chowmah > for the water <4325

mayim > of the old <3465 yashan > pool <1295 b@rekah >: but ye

have not looked <5027 nabat > unto the maker <6213 <asah >

thereof, neither <3808 lo> > had respect <7200 ra>ah > unto him

that fashioned <3335 yatsar > it long <7350 rachowq > ago <7350

rachowq >.

12 And in that day <3117 yowm > did the Lord <0136 >Adonay >

GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > call <7121 qara> >

to weeping <1065 B@kiy >, and to mourning <4553 micepd >, and to

baldness <7144 qorchah >, and to girding <2296 chagar > with

sackcloth <8242 saq >:

13 And behold <2009 hinneh > joy <8342 sasown > and gladness

<8057 simchah >, slaying <2026 harag > oxen <1241 baqar >, and

killing <7819 shachat > sheep <6629 tso>n >, eating <0398 >akal

yayin >: let us eat <0398 >akal > and drink <8354 shathah >; for

to morrow <4279 machar > we shall die <4191 muwth >.

14 And it was revealed <1540 galah > in mine ears <0241 >ozen >

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

<0518 >im > this <2088 zeh > iniquity <5771 <avon > shall not be

purged <3722 kaphar > from you till <5704 <ad > ye die <4191

Y@hovih > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

15. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay

16 What <4100 mah > hast thou here <6311 poh >? and whom <4310

[as] he that heweth <2672 chatsab > him out a sepulchre <6913

17 Behold <2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will carry

<2904 tuwl > thee away with a mighty <1397 geber > captivity

<2925 taltelah >, and will surely cover <5844 <atah > thee.

18 He will surely violently turn <6801 tsanaph > and toss <6802

ts@nephah > thee [like] a ball <1754 duwr > into <0413 >el > a

large country <0776 >erets >: there <8033 sham > shalt thou die

<4191 muwth >, and there <8033 sham > the chariots <4818

merkabah > of thy glory <3519 kabowd > [shall be] the shame

<7036 qalown > of thy lord's <0113 >adown > house <1004 bayith >.

19 And I will drive <1920 Hadaph > thee from thy station <4673

matstsab >, and from thy state <4612 ma<amad > shall he pull

<2040 harac > thee down.

20 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117

yowm >, that I will call <7121 qara> > my servant <5650 <ebed >

Eliakim <0471 >Elyaqiym > the son <1121 ben > of Hilkiah <2518

21 And I will clothe <3847 labash > him with thy robe <3301

Yiphd@yah >, and strengthen <2388 chazaq > him with thy girdle

Y@ruwshalaim >, and to the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063

Y@huwdah >.

22 And the key <4668 maphteach > of the house <1004 bayith > of

David <1732 David > will I lay <5414 nathan > upon his shoulder

<7926 sh@kem >; so he shall open <6605 pathach >, and none <0369

23 And I will fasten <8628 taqa< > him [as] a nail <3489 yathed

for a glorious <3519 kabowd > throne <3678 kicce> > to his

24 And they shall hang <8518 talah > upon him all <3605 kol >

the glory <3519 kabowd > of his father's <1> house <1004 bayith

even to all <3605 kol > the vessels <3627 k@liy > of flagons

<5035 nebel >.

25 In that day <3117 yowm >, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, shall the nail <3489 yathed >

Isaiah 23

1. The burden <4853 massa> > of Tyre <6865 Tsor >. Howl <3213

4 Be thou ashamed <0954 buwsh >, O Zidon <6721 Tsiydown >: for

the sea <3220 yam > hath spoken <0559 >amar >, [even] the

10 Pass <5674 <abar > through thy land <0776 >erets > as a

Isaiah 24

1. Behold <2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > maketh the

[and] fadeth <5034 nabel > away, the haughty <4791 marowm >

5 The earth <0776 >erets > also is defiled <2610 chaneph >

6 Therefore hath the curse <0423 >alah > devoured <0398 >akal >

the earth <0776 >erets >, and they that dwell <3427 yashab >

9 They shall not drink <8354 shathah > wine <3196 yayin > with

10 The city <7151 qiryah > of confusion <8414 tohuw > is broken

13. When <3588 kiy > thus <3541 koh > it shall be in the midst

17 Fear <6343 pachad >, and the pit <6354 pachath >, and the

fleeth <5127 nuwc > from the noise <6963 qowl > of the fear

<6343 pachad > shall fall <5307 naphal > into <0413 >el > the

pit <6354 pachath >; and he that cometh <5927 <alah > up out of

the midst <8432 tavek > of the pit <6354 pachath > shall be

taken <3920 lakad > in the snare <6341 pach >: for the windows

pathach >, and the foundations <4146 mowcadah > of the earth

19 The earth <0776 >erets > is utterly broken <7489 ra<a< >

down, the earth <0776 >erets > is clean <6565 parar > dissolved

<6565 parar >, the earth <0776 >erets > is moved <4132 mowt >

exceedingly.

20 The earth <0776 >erets > shall reel <5128 nuwa< > to and fro

like a drunkard <7910 shikkowr >, and shall be removed <5110

it shall fall <5307 naphal >, and not rise <6965 quwm > again

22 And they shall be gathered <0622 >acaph > together, [as]

prisoners <0616 >acciyr > are gathered <0626 >acephah > in the

23 Then the moon <3842 l@banah > shall be confounded <2659

Isaiah 25

1. O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thou [art] my God <0430 >elohiym >;

I will exalt <7311 ruwm > thee, I will praise <3034 yadah > thy

name <8034 shem >; for thou hast done <6213 <asah > wonderful

<6382 pele> > [things; thy] counsels <6098 <etsah > of old <7350

rachowq > [are] faithfulness <0530 >emuwnah > [and] truth <0544

2 For thou hast made <7760 suwm > of a city <5892 <iyr > an

heap <1530 gal >; [of] a defenced <1219 batsar > city <7151

qiryah > a ruin <4654 mappalah >: a palace <0759 >armown > of

strangers <2114 zuwr > to be no city <5892 <iyr >; it shall

never be built <1129 banah >.

3 Therefore shall the strong <5794 <az > people <5971 <am >

glorify <3513 kabad > thee, the city <7151 qiryah > of the

terrible <6184 <ariyts > nations <1471 gowy > shall fear <3372

yare> > thee.

4 For thou hast been <1961 hayah > a strength <4581 ma<owz > to

the poor <1800 dal >, a strength <4581 ma<owz > to the needy

<34> in his distress <6862 tsar >, a refuge <4268 machaceh >

from the storm <2230 zerem >, a shadow <6738 tsel > from the

heat <2721 choreb >, when <3588 kiy > the blast <7307 ruwach >

of the terrible <6184 <ariyts > ones [is] as a storm <2230 zerem

5 Thou shalt bring <3665 kana< > down <3665 kana< > the noise

<7588 sha>own > of strangers <2114 zuwr >, as the heat <2721

choreb > in a dry <6724 tsiyown > place; [even] the heat <2721

choreb > with the shadow <6738 tsel > of a cloud <5645 <ab >:

the branch <2158 zamiyr > of the terrible <6184 <ariyts > ones

shall be brought <6030 <anah > low <6030 <anah >.

6. And in this <2088 zeh > mountain <2022 har > shall the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > make <6213 <asah > unto

all <3605 kol > people <5971 <am > a feast <4960 mishteh > of

fat <8081 shemen > things, a feast <4960 mishteh > of wines

<8105 shemer > on the lees <8105 shemer >, of fat <8081 shemen >

things full of marrow <4229 machah >, of wines <8105 shemer > on

the lees <8105 shemer > well refined <2212 zaqaq >.

7 And he will destroy <1104 bala< > in this <2088 zeh >

mountain <2022 har > the face <6440 paniym > of the covering

<3875 lowt > cast <3874 luwt > over <5921 <al > all <3605 kol >

people <5971 <am >, and the vail <4541 maccekah > that is spread

<5259 nacak > over <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > nations <1471

gowy >.

8 He will swallow <1104 bala< > up death <4194 maveth > in

victory <5331 netsach >; and the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069

Y@hovih > will wipe <4229 machah > away tears <1832 dim<ah >

from off <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > faces <6440 paniym >; and

the rebuke <2781 cherpah > of his people <5971 <am > shall he

take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > from off <5921 <al > all

<3605 kol > the earth <0776 >erets >: for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

9. And it shall be said <0559 >amar > in that day <3117 yowm >,

Lo <2009 hinneh >, this <2088 zeh > [is] our God <0430 >elohiym

yasha< > us: this <2088 zeh > [is] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; we

have waited <6960 qavah > for him, we will be glad <1528 giyr >

and rejoice <8055 samach > in his salvation <3444 y@shuw<ah >.

10 For in this <2088 zeh > mountain <2022 har > shall the hand

<3027 yad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > rest <5117 nuwach >, and

Moab <4124 Mow>ab > shall be trodden <1758 duwsh > down under

<8478 tachath > him, even as straw <4963 mathben > is trodden

<1758 duwsh > down for the dunghill <4087 madmenah >.

11 And he shall spread <6566 paras > forth his hands <3027 yad

sachah > spreadeth <6566 paras > forth [his hands] to swim <7811

12 And the fortress <4013 mibtsar > of the high <4869 misgab >

fort <4869 misgab > of thy walls <2346 chowmah > shall he bring

<7817 shachach > down <7817 shachach >, lay low <8213 shaphel >,

[and] bring <5060 naga< > to the ground <0776 >erets >, [even]

to the dust <6083 <aphar >.

Isaiah 26

1. In that day <3117 yowm > shall this <2088 zeh > song <7892

Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >; We have a strong <5797 <oz > city <5892

shiyth > [for] walls <2346 chowmah > and bulwarks <2426 cheyl >.

2 Open <6605 pathach > ye the gates <8179 sha<ar >, that the

righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > nation <1471 gowy > which keepeth

<8104 shamar > the truth <0529 >emuwn > may enter <0935 bow> >

3 Thou wilt keep <5341 natsar > [him] in perfect peace <7965

shalowm >, [whose] mind <3336 yetser > [is] stayed <5564 camak >

[on thee]: because <3588 kiy > he trusteth <0982 batach > in

thee.

4 Trust <0982 batach > ye in the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > for ever

<5703 <ad >: for in the LORD <3050 Yahh > JEHOVAH <3068 Y@hovah

5. For he bringeth <7817 shachach > down <7817 shachach > them

that dwell <3427 yashab > on <4791 marowm > high <4791 marowm >;

the lofty <7682 sagab > city <7151 qiryah >, he layeth it low

<8213 shaphel >; he layeth it low <8213 shaphel >, [even] to the

ground <0776 >erets >; he bringeth <5060 naga< > it [even] to

the dust <6083 <aphar >.

6 The foot <7272 regel > shall tread <7429 ramac > it down,

[even] the feet <7272 regel > of the poor <6041 <aniy >, [and]

the steps <6471 pa<am > of the needy <1800 dal >.

7 The way <0734 >orach > of the just <6662 tsaddiyq > [is]

uprightness <4339 meyshar >: thou, most upright <3477 yashar >,

dost weigh <6424 palac > the path <4570 ma<gal > of the just

8 Yea <0637 >aph >, in the way <0734 >orach > of thy judgments

<4941 mishpat >, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, have we waited <6960

qavah > for thee; the desire <8378 ta>avah > of [our] soul <5315

nephesh > [is] to thy name <8034 shem >, and to the remembrance

<2143 zeker > of thee.

9 With my soul <5315 nephesh > have I desired <0183 >avah >

thee in the night <3915 layil >; yea <0637 >aph >, with my

spirit <7307 ruwach > within <7130 qereb > me will I seek <7836

shachar > thee early <7836 shachar >: for when <0834 >aher > thy

inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the world <8398 tebel > will learn

<3925 lamad > righteousness <6664 tsedeq >.

10 Let favour <2603 chanan > be shewed to the wicked <7563

rasha< >, [yet] will he not learn <3925 lamad > righteousness

<6664 tsedeq >: in the land <0776 >erets > of uprightness <5229

n@kochah > will he deal unjustly <5765 <aval >, and will not

behold <7200 ra>ah > the majesty <1348 ge>uwth > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >.

11 LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, [when] thy hand <3027 yad > is lifted

<5375 nasa> > up, they will not see <2372 chazah >: [but] they

shall see <2372 chazah >, and be ashamed <0954 buwsh > for

[their] envy <7068 qin>ah > at the people <5971 <am >; yea <0637

shall devour <0398 >akal > them.

12. LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thou wilt ordain <8239 shaphath >

peace <7965 shalowm > for us: for thou also <1571 gam > hast

wrought <6466 pa<al > all <3605 kol > our works <4639 ma<aseh >

in us.

13 O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym >, [other]

lords <0113 >adown > beside <2108 zuwlah > thee have had

dominion <1196 Ba<anah > over us: [but] by thee only <0905 bad >

will we make mention <2142 zakar > of thy name <8034 shem >.

14 [They are] dead <4191 muwth >, they shall not live <2421

chayah >; [they are] deceased <7496 rapha> >, they shall not

rise <6965 quwm >: therefore <3651 ken > hast thou visited <6485

paqad > and destroyed <8045 shamad > them, and made all <3605

15 Thou hast increased <3254 yacaph > the nation <1471 gowy >,

O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thou hast increased <3254 yacaph > the

nation <1471 gowy >: thou art glorified <3513 kabad >: thou

hadst removed <7368 rachaq > [it] far <7368 rachaq > [unto] all

<3605 kol > the ends <7097 qatseh > of the earth <0776 >erets >.

16 LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, in trouble <6862 tsar > have they

visited <6485 paqad > thee, they poured <6694 tsuwq > out a

prayer <3908 lachash > [when] thy chastening <4148 muwcar >

[was] upon them.

17 Like <3644 k@mow > as a woman with child <2030 hareh >,

[that] draweth near <7126 qarab > the time of her delivery <3205

out in her pangs <2256 chebel >; so <3651 ken > have we been

18 We have been with child <2029 harah >, we have been in pain

<2342 chuwl >, we have as it were brought <3205 yalad > forth

<3205 yalad > wind <7307 ruwach >; we have not wrought <6213

19 Thy dead <4191 muwth > [men] shall live <2421 chayah >,

[together with] my dead <5038 n@belah > body <5038 n@belah >

shall they arise <6965 quwm >. Awake <6974 quwts > and sing

<7442 ranan >, ye that dwell <7931 shakan > in dust <6083 <aphar

<0219 >owrah >, and the earth <0776 >erets > shall cast <5307

naphal > out the dead <7496 rapha> >.

20. Come <3212 yalak >, my people <5971 <am >, enter <0935 bow>

thy doors <1817 deleth > about <1157 b@<ad > thee: hide <2247

<7281 rega< >, until <5704 <ad > the indignation <2195 za<am >

21 For, behold <2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > cometh

<3318 yatsa> > out of his place <4725 maqowm > to punish <6485

paqad > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the earth <0776 >erets

slain <2026 harag >.

Isaiah 27

sore <7186 qasheh > and great <1419 gadowl > and strong <2389

2 In that day <3117 yowm > sing <6031 <anah > ye unto her, A

3 I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > do keep <5341 natsar > it; I will

5 Or <0176 >ow > let him take <2388 chazaq > hold <2388 chazaq

9 By this <2063 zo>th > therefore <3651 ken > shall the

5 In that day <3117 yowm > shall the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

<6643 ts@biy >, and for a diadem <6843 ts@phiyrah > of beauty

<8597 tiph>arah >, unto the residue <7605 sh@>ar > of his people

<5971 <am >,

6 And for a spirit <7307 ruwach > of judgment <4941 mishpat >

to him that sitteth <3427 yashab > in judgment <4941 mishpat >,

and for strength <1369 g@buwrah > to them that turn <7725 shuwb

7 But they also <1571 gam > have erred <7686 shagah > through

wine <3196 yayin >, and through strong drink <7941 shekar > are

out of the way <8582 ta<ah >; the priest <3548 kohen > and the

prophet <5030 nabiy> > have erred <7686 shagah > through strong

drink <7941 shekar >, they are swallowed <1104 bala< > up of

wine <3196 yayin >, they are out of the way <8582 ta<ah >

through <4480 min > strong drink <7941 shekar >; they err <7686

shagah > in vision <7203 ro>eh >, they stumble <6328 puwq > [in]

judgment <6417 p@liyliyah >.

8 For all <3605 kol > tables <7979 shulchan > are full <4390

[so that there is] no <1097 b@liy > place <4725 maqowm > [clean].

9. Whom shall he teach <3384 yarah > knowledge <1844 de<ah >?

and whom shall he make to understand <0995 biyn > doctrine <8052

sh@muw<ah >? [them that are] weaned <1580 gamal > from the milk

<2461 chalab >, [and] drawn <6267 attiyq > from the breasts

<7699 shad >.

10 For precept <6673 tsav > [must be] upon precept <6673 tsav >,

precept <6673 tsav > upon precept <6673 tsav >; line <6957 qav

here <8033 sham > a little <2191 ze<eyr >, [and] there <8033

11 For with stammering <3934 la<eg > lips <8193 saphah > and

another <0312 >acher > tongue <3956 lashown > will he speak

<1696 dabar > to this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am >.

12 To whom he said <0559 >amar >, This <2063 zo>th > [is] the

rest <4496 m@nuwchah > [wherewith <0834 >aher >] ye may cause

the weary <5889 <ayeph > to rest <5117 nuwach >; and this <2063

zo>th > [is] the refreshing <4774 marge<ah >: yet they would

<14> not hear <8085 shama< >.

13 But the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was

unto them precept <6673 tsav > upon precept <6673 tsav >,

precept <6673 tsav > upon precept <6673 tsav >; line <6957 qav >

upon line <6957 qav >, line <6957 qav > upon line <6957 qav >;

here <8033 sham > a little <2191 ze<eyr >, [and] there <8033

and fall <3782 kashal > backward <0268 >achowr >, and be broken

<7665 shabar >, and snared <3369 yaqosh >, and taken <3920 lakad

14. Wherefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697

men <0582 >enowsh >, that rule <4910 mashal > this <2088 zeh >

people <5971 <am > which <0834 >aher > [is] in Jerusalem <3389

Y@ruwshalaim >.

15 Because <3588 kiy > ye have said <0559 >amar >, We have made

<3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with death <4194

maveth >, and with hell <7585 sh@>owl > are we at agreement

<2374 chozeh >; when <3588 kiy > the overflowing <7857 shataph >

scourge <7885 shayit > shall pass <5674 <abar > through, it

shall not come <0935 bow> > unto us: for we have made <7760 suwm

falsehood <8267 sheqer > have we hid <5641 cathar > ourselves:

16 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

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

I lay in Zion <6726 Tsiyown > for a foundation <3248 y@cuwdah >

a stone <68>, a tried <0976 bochan > stone <68>, a precious

<3368 yaqar > corner <6438 pinnah > [stone], a sure <3245 yacad

shall not make haste <2363 chuwsh >.

17 Judgment <4941 mishpat > also will I lay <7760 suwm > to the

line <6957 qav >, and righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > to the

plummet <4949 mishqeleth >: and the hail <1259 barad > shall

sweep <3261 ya<ah > away the refuge <4268 machaceh > of lies

<3576 kazab >, and the waters <4325 mayim > shall overflow <7857

shataph > the hiding <5643 cether > place.

18 And your covenant <1285 b@riyth > with death <4194 maveth >

shall be disannulled <3722 kaphar >, and your agreement <2380

chazuwth > with hell <7585 sh@>owl > shall not stand <6965 quwm

<7752 showt > shall pass <5674 <abar > through, then ye shall be

trodden <4823 mirmac > down by it.

19 From the time <1767 day > that it goeth <5674 <abar > forth

<5674 <abar > it shall take <3947 laqach > you: for morning

<1242 boqer > by morning <1242 boqer > shall it pass <5674 <abar

raq > [to] understand <0995 biyn > the report <8052 sh@muw<ah >.

20 For the bed <4702 matstsa< > is shorter <7114 qatsar > than

that [a man <0376 >iysh >] can stretch <8311 sara< > himself [on

it]: and the covering <4541 maccekah > narrower <6887 tsarar >

than that he can wrap <3664 kanac > himself [in it].

21 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall rise <6965 quwm > up as

[in] mount <2022 har > Perazim, he shall be wroth <7264 ragaz >

as [in] the valley <6010 <emeq > of Gibeon <1391 Gib<own >, that

he may do <6213 <asah > his work <4639 ma<aseh >, his strange

<2114 zuwr > work <4639 ma<aseh >; and bring <5647 <abad > to

pass <5674 <abar > his act <5556 col<am >, his strange <5237

22 Now <6258 <attah > therefore be ye not mockers <3887 luwts >,

lest <6435 pen > your bands <4147 mowcer > be made strong <2388

chazaq >: for I have heard <8085 shama< > from the Lord <0136

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > a

consumption <3617 kalah >, even determined <2782 charats > upon

the whole <3605 kol > earth <0776 >erets >.

23. Give ye ear <0238 >azan >, and hear <8085 shama< > my voice

<6963 qowl >; hearken <7181 qashab >, and hear <8085 shama< > my

speech <0565 >imrah >.

24 Doth the plowman <2790 charash > plow <2790 charash > all

<3605 kol > day <3117 yowm > to sow <2232 zara< >? doth he open

<6605 pathach > and break <7702 sadad > the clods <7702 sadad >

of his ground <0127 >adamah >?

25 When <0518 >im > he hath made plain <7737 shavah > the face

<6440 paniym > thereof, doth he not cast <6327 puwts > abroad

<6327 puwts > the fitches <7100 qetsach >, and scatter <2236

zaraq > the cummin <3646 kammon >, and cast <7760 suwm > in the

<5567 caman > barley <8184 s@<orah > and the rie <3698 kuccemeth

26 For his God <0430 >elohiym > doth instruct <3256 yacar > him

to discretion <4941 mishpat >, [and] doth teach <3384 yarah >

him.

27 For the fitches <7100 qetsach > are not threshed <1758 duwsh

fitches <7100 qetsach > are beaten <2251 chabat > out with a

staff <4294 matteh >, and the cummin <3646 kammon > with a rod

<7626 shebet >.

28 Bread <3899 lechem > [corn] is bruised <1854 daqaq >;

because <3588 kiy > he will not ever <5331 netsach > be

threshing <1758 duwsh > it, nor break <2000 hamam > [it with]

the wheel <1536 gilgal > of his cart <5699 <agalah >, nor <3808

29 This <2088 zeh > also <1571 gam > cometh <3318 yatsa> >

forth <3318 yatsa> > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts

<6635 tsaba> >, [which] is wonderful <6381 pala> > in counsel

<6098 <etsah >, [and] excellent <1431 gadal > in working <8454

Isaiah 29

1. Woe <1945 howy > to Ariel <0740 >Ari>el >, to Ariel <0740

>Ari>el >, the city <7151 qiryah > [where] David <1732 David >

dwelt <2583 chanah >! add <5595 caphah > ye year <8141 shaneh >

to year <8141 shaneh >; let them kill <5362 naqaph > sacrifices

<2282 chag >.

2 Yet I will distress <6693 tsuwq > Ariel <0740 >Ari>el >, and

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

3 And I will camp <2583 chanah > against <5921 <al > thee round

<5921 <al > thee with a mount <4674 mutstsab >, and I will raise

<6965 quwm > forts <4694 m@tsuwrah > against <5921 <al > thee.

4 And thou shalt be brought <8213 shaphel > down <8213 shaphel

5 Moreover the multitude <1995 hamown > of thy strangers <2114

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

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

[shall be] as chaff <4671 mots > that passeth <5674 <abar > away:

yea, it shall be at an instant <6621 petha< > suddenly <6597

6 Thou shalt be visited <6485 paqad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

earthquake <7494 ra<ash >, and great <1419 gadowl > noise <6963

and the flame <3851 lahab > of devouring <0398 >akal > fire

7 And the multitude <1995 hamown > of all <3605 kol > the

nations <1471 gowy > that fight <6633 tsaba> > against <5921 <al

eateth <0398 >akal >; but he awaketh <6974 quwts >, and his soul

a thirsty <6771 tsame> > man dreameth <2492 chalam >, and,

behold <2009 hinneh >, he drinketh <8354 shathah >; but he

awaketh <6974 quwts >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, [he is] faint

<5889 <ayeph >, and his soul <5315 nephesh > hath appetite <8264

<5921 <al > mount <2022 har > Zion <6726 Tsiyown >.

9. Stay <4102 mahahh > yourselves, and wonder <8539 tamahh >;

cry <8173 sha<a< > ye out, and cry <8173 sha<a< >: they are

drunken <7937 shakar >, but not with wine <3196 yayin >; they

stagger <5128 nuwa< >, but not with strong drink <7941 shekar >.

10 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath poured <5258 nacak > out

upon you the spirit <7307 ruwach > of deep <8639 tardemah >

sleep <8639 tardemah >, and hath closed <6105 <atsam > your eyes

<5869 <ayin >: the prophets <5030 nabiy> > and your rulers <7218

11 And the vision <2380 chazuwth > of all <3605 kol > is become

<1961 hayah > unto you as the words <1697 dabar > of a book

<5612 cepher > that is sealed <2856 chatham >, which <0834 >aher

sealed <2856 chatham >:

12 And the book <5612 cepher > is delivered <5414 nathan > to

him that is not learned, saying <0559 >amar >, Read <7121 qara>

13 Wherefore the Lord <0136 >Adonay > said <0559 >amar >,

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

[me] with their mouth <6310 peh >, and with their lips <8193

their fear <3374 yir>ah > toward <0854 >eth > me is taught <3925

lamad > by the precept <4687 mitsvah > of men <0582 >enowsh >:

14 Therefore <3651 ken >, behold <2005 hen >, I will proceed

<3254 yacaph > to do a marvellous <6381 pala> > work <6381 pala>

the wisdom <2451 chokmah > of their wise <2450 chakam > [men]

shall perish <6>, and the understanding <0998 biynah > of their

prudent <0995 biyn > [men] shall be hid <5641 cathar >.

15 Woe <1945 howy > unto them that seek deep <6009 <amaq > to

hide <5641 cathar > their counsel <6098 <etsah > from the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >, and their works <4639 ma<aseh > are in the dark

<4285 machshak >, and they say <0559 >amar >, Who <4310 miy >

seeth <7200 ra>ah > us? and who <4310 miy > knoweth <3045 yada<

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

upside down shall be esteemed <2803 chashab > as the potter's

<3335 yatsar > clay <2563 chomer >: for shall the work <4639

He made <6213 <asah > me not? or shall the thing framed <3336

He had no <3808 lo> > understanding <0995 biyn >?

17. [Is] it not yet <5750 <owd > a very <4213 miz<ar > little

turned <7725 shuwb > into a fruitful <3759 karmel > field, and

the fruitful <3759 karmel > field shall be esteemed <2803

chashab > as a forest <3293 ya<ar >?

18 And in that day <3117 yowm > shall the deaf <2795 cheresh >

hear <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of the book <5612

cepher >, and the eyes <5869 <ayin > of the blind <5787 <ivver >

shall see <7200 ra>ah > out of obscurity <0652 >ophel >, and out

of darkness <2822 choshek >.

19 The meek <6035 <anav > also shall increase <3254 yacaph >

[their] joy <8057 simchah > in the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and the

poor <34> among men <0120 >adam > shall rejoice <1523 giyl > in

the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

20 For the terrible <6184 <ariyts > one is brought <0656 >aphec

consumed <3615 kalah >, and all <3605 kol > that watch <8245

21 That make a man <0120 >adam > an offender <2398 chata> > for

a word <1697 dabar >, and lay a snare <6983 qowsh > for him that

reproveth <3198 yakach > in the gate <8179 sha<ar >, and turn

<5186 natah > aside <5186 natah > the just <6662 tsaddiyq > for

a thing of nought <8414 tohuw >.

22 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, who <0834 >aher > redeemed <6299 padah

shall his face <6440 paniym > now <6258 <attah > wax pale <2357

23 But when <3588 kiy > he seeth <7200 ra>ah > his children

24 They also that erred <8582 ta<ah > in spirit <7307 ruwach >

shall come <3045 yada< > to understanding <0998 biynah >, and

they that murmured <7279 ragan > shall learn <3925 lamad >

doctrine <3948 leqach >.

Isaiah 30

1. Woe <1945 howy > to the rebellious <5637 carar > children

3 Therefore shall the strength <4581 ma<owz > of Pharaoh <6547

chacuwth > in the shadow <6738 tsel > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >

[your] confusion <3639 k@limmah >.

his ambassadors <4397 mal>ak > came <5060 naga< > to Hanes <2609

5 They were all <3605 kol > ashamed <0954 buwsh > of a people

12 Wherefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, Because

<3282 ya<an > ye despise <3988 ma>ac > this <2088 zeh > word

15 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of

17 One <0259 >echad > thousand <0505 >eleph > [shall flee] at

18. And therefore <3651 ken > will the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

wait <2442 chakah >, that he may be gracious <2603 chanan > unto

you, and therefore <3651 ken > will he be exalted <7311 ruwm >,

that he may have mercy <7355 racham > upon you: for the LORD

19 For the people <5971 <am > shall dwell <3427 yashab > in

Zion <6726 Tsiyown > at Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >: thou

20 And [though] the Lord <0136 >Adonay > give <5414 nathan >

thy teachers <3384 yarah > be removed <3670 kanaph > into a

26 Moreover the light <0216 >owr > of the moon <3842 l@banah >

27. Behold <2009 hinneh >, the name <8034 shem > of the LORD

burning <1197 ba<ar > [with] his anger <0639 >aph >, and the

28 And his breath <7307 ruwach >, as an overflowing <7857

29 Ye shall have <1961 hayah > a song <7892 shiyr >, as in the

night <3915 layil > [when] a holy <6942 qadash > solemnity <2282

30 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall cause his glorious <1935

shew <7200 ra>ah > the lighting <5183 Nachath > down <5183

lahab > of a devouring <0398 >akal > fire <0784 >esh >, [with]

scattering <5311 nephets >, and tempest <2230 zerem >, and

hailstones.

31 For through the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

harps <3658 kinnowr >: and in battles <4421 milchamah > of

shaking <8573 t@nuwphah > will he fight <3898 lacham > with it.

33 For Tophet <8613 Tophteh > [is] ordained <6186 <arak > of

like a stream <5158 nachal > of brimstone <1614 gophriyth >,

doth kindle <1197 ba<ar > it.

Isaiah 31

1. Woe <1945 howy > to them that go <3381 yarad > down <3381

stay <8172 sha<an > on <5921 <al > horses <5483 cuwc >, and

trust <0982 batach > in chariots <7393 rekeb >, because <3588

seek <1875 darash > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >!

2 Yet he also <1571 gam > [is] wise <2450 chakam >, and will

bring <0935 bow> > evil <7451 ra< >, and will not call <5493

cuwr > back <5493 cuwr > his words <1697 dabar >: but will arise

<6965 quwm > against <5921 <al > the house <1004 bayith > of the

evildoers <7489 ra<a< >, and against <5921 <al > the help <5833

<ezrah > of them that work <6213 <asah > iniquity <0205 >aven >.

3 Now the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > [are] men <0120 >adam >,

and not God <0410 >el >; and their horses <5483 cuwc > flesh

<1320 basar >, and not spirit <7307 ruwach >. When the LORD

<3615 kalah > together <3162 yachad >.

4 For thus <3541 koh > hath the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spoken

<0559 >amar > unto me, Like as the lion <0738 >ariy > and the

young <3715 k@phiyr > lion <3715 k@phiyr > roaring <1897 hagah >

<6633 tsaba> > for mount <2022 har > Zion <6726 Tsiyown >, and

for the hill <1389 gib<ah > thereof.

5 As birds <6833 tsippowr > flying <5774 <uwph >, so will the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > defend <1598 ganan

he will deliver <5337 natsal > [it; and] passing <5674 <abar >

6. Turn <7725 shuwb > ye unto [him from] whom <0834 >aher > the

children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > have deeply

<6009 <amaq > revolted <5627 carah >.

7 For in that day <3117 yowm > every man <0376 >iysh > shall

cast <3988 ma>ac > away <3988 ma>ac > his idols <0457 >eliyl >

of silver <3701 keceph >, and his idols <0457 >eliyl > of gold

<2091 zahab >, which <0834 >aher > your own hands <3027 yad >

have made <6213 <asah > unto you [for] a sin <2399 chet> >.

8 Then shall the Assyrian <0804 >Ashshuwr > fall <5307 naphal >

with the sword <2719 chereb >, not of a mighty <0376 >iysh > man

<0376 >iysh >; and the sword <2719 chereb >, not of a mean <0120

he shall flee <5127 nuwc > from the sword <2719 chereb >, and

his young <0970 bachuwr > men shall be discomfited <4522 mac >.

9 And he shall pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > to his

strong <5553 cela< > hold <5553 cela< > for fear <4032 magowr >,

and his princes <8269 sar > shall be afraid <2865 chathath > of

Isaiah 32

1. Behold <2005 hen >, a king <4428 melek > shall reign <4427

3 And the eyes <5869 <ayin > of them that see <7200 ra>ah >

4 The heart <3824 lebab > also of the rash <4116 mahar > shall

5 The vile <5036 nabal > person shall be no <3808 lo> > more

6 For the vile <5036 nabal > person will speak <1696 dabar >

villany <5039 n@balah >, and his heart <3820 leb > will work

<6213 <asah > iniquity <0205 >aven >, to practise <6213 <asah >

hypocrisy <2612 choneph >, and to utter <1696 dabar > error

8 But the liberal <5081 nadiyb > deviseth <3289 ya<ats >

liberal <5081 nadiyb > things; and by liberal <5081 nadiyb >

things shall he stand <6965 quwm >.

9. Rise <6965 quwm > up, ye women <0802 >ishshah > that are at

13 Upon the land <0127 >adamah > of my people <5971 <am > shall

Isaiah 33

thou [wast] not spoiled <7703 shadad >; and dealest

treacherously <0898 bagad >, and they dealt not treacherously

[and] when thou shalt make an end <5239 nalah > to deal

treacherously <0898 bagad >, they shall deal treacherously <0898

2 O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, be gracious <2603 chanan > unto us;

we have waited <6960 qavah > for thee: be thou their arm <2220

the fear <3374 yir>ah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > [is] his

8 The highways <4546 m@cillah > lie waste <8074 shamem >, the

10 Now <6258 <attah > will I rise <6965 quwm >, saith <0559

14 The sinners <2400 chatta> > in Zion <6726 Tsiyown > are

Say <0559 >amar > ye now <4994 na> > to Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah

king <4428 melek >, the king <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804

zeh > wherein <0834 >aher > thou trustest <0982 batach >?

5 I say <0559 >amar >, [sayest thou], (but [they are but] vain

<8193 saphah > words <1697 dabar >) [I have] counsel <6098

now <6258 <attah > on <5921 <al > whom <4310 miy > dost thou

trust <0982 batach >, that thou rebellest <4775 marad > against

me?

6 Lo <2009 hinneh >, thou trustest <0982 batach > in the staff

<4938 mish<enah > of this <2088 zeh > broken <7533 ratsats >

reed <7070 qaneh >, on <5921 <al > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >;

whereon if a man <0376 >iysh > lean <5564 camak >, it will go

7 But if thou say <0559 >amar > to me, We trust <0982 batach >

in the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym >: [is it]

not he, whose high <1111 Balaq > places and whose altars <4196

mizbeach > Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > hath taken <5493 cuwr >

away <5493 cuwr >, and said <0559 >amar > to Judah <3063

worship <7812 shachah > before <6440 paniym > this <2088 zeh >

8 Now <6258 <attah > therefore give pledges <6148 <arab >, I

pray <4994 na> > thee, to my master <0113 >adown > the king

<4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >, and I will give

<5414 nathan > thee two thousand <0505 >eleph > horses <5483

set <5414 nathan > riders <7392 rakab > upon them.

9 How <0349 >eyk > then wilt thou turn <7725 shuwb > away the

face <6440 paniym > of one <0259 >echad > captain <6346 pechah >

of the least <6996 qatan > of my master's <0113 >adown >

<5921 <al > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > for chariots <7393 rekeb >

and for horsemen <6571 parash >?

10 And am I now <6258 <attah > come <5927 <alah > up without

this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > to destroy <7843 shachath

<5927 <alah > up against <0413 >el > this <2063 zo>th > land

<0776 >erets >, and destroy <7843 shachath > it.

11. Then said <0559 >amar > Eliakim <0471 >Elyaqiym > and

Shebna <7644 Shebna> > and Joah <3098 Yow>ach > unto Rabshakeh

<7262 Rabshaqeh >, Speak <1696 dabar >, I pray <4994 na> > thee,

unto thy servants <5650 <ebed > in the Syrian <0762 >Aramiyth >

ears <0241 >ozen > of the people <5971 <am > that [are] on <5921

<al > the wall <2346 chowmah >.

12 But Rabshakeh <7262 Rabshaqeh > said <0559 >amar >, Hath my

master <0113 >adown > sent <7971 shalach > me to thy master

<0113 >adown > and to thee to speak <1696 dabar > these <0428

drink <8354 shathah > their own piss <7890 shayin > with you?

13 Then Rabshakeh <7262 Rabshaqeh > stood <5975 <amad >, and

cried <7121 qara> > with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl

Hear <8085 shama< > ye the words <1697 dabar > of the great

Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >.

14 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the king <4428 melek >,

Let not Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > deceive <5377 nasha> > you:

for he shall not be able <3201 yakol > to deliver <5337 natsal >

you.

15 Neither <0408 >al > let Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > make you

trust <0982 batach > in the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, saying <0559

delivered <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the king

<4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >.

16 Hearken <8085 shama< > not to Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >:

for thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the king <4428 melek >

of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >, Make <6213 <asah > [an agreement]

17 Until <5704 <ad > I come <0935 bow> > and take <3947 laqach

<8492 tiyrowsh >, a land <0776 >erets > of bread <3899 lechem >

and vineyards <3754 kerem >.

18 [Beware] lest <6435 pen > Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >

persuade <5496 cuwth > you, saying <0559 >amar >, The LORD <3068

Y@hovah > will deliver <5337 natsal > us. Hath any <0376 >iysh >

of the gods <0430 >elohiym > of the nations <1471 gowy >

delivered <5337 natsal > his land <0776 >erets > out of the hand

<3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr

19 Where <0346 >ayeh > [are] the gods <0430 >elohiym > of

Hamath <2574 Chamath > and Arphad <0774 >Arpad >? where <0346

C@pharvayim >? and have they delivered <5337 natsal > Samaria

<8111 Shom@rown > out of my hand <3027 yad >?

20 Who <4310 miy > [are they] among all <3605 kol > the gods

<0430 >elohiym > of these <0428 >el-leh > lands <0776 >erets >,

that have delivered <5337 natsal > their land <0776 >erets > out

of my hand <3027 yad >, that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > should

deliver <5337 natsal > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > out of my

hand <3027 yad >?

21 But they held <2790 charash > their peace <2790 charash >,

and answered <6030 <anah > him not a word <1697 dabar >: for the

king's <4428 melek > commandment <4687 mitsvah > was, saying

<0559 >amar >, Answer <6030 <anah > him not.

22 Then came <0935 bow> > Eliakim <0471 >Elyaqiym >, the son

<1121 ben > of Hilkiah <2518 Chilqiyah >, that [was] over <5921

the scribe <5608 caphar >, and Joah <3098 Yow>ach >, the son

to Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > with [their] clothes <0899 beged >

rent <7167 qara< >, and told <5046 nagad > him the words <1697

Isaiah 37

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when king <4428 melek >

Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > heard <8085 shama< > [it], that he

rent <7167 qara< > his clothes <0899 beged >, and covered <3680

kacah > himself with sackcloth <8242 saq >, and went <0935 bow>

2 And he sent <7971 shalach > Eliakim <0471 >Elyaqiym >, who

<0834 >aher > [was] over <5921 <al > the household <1004 bayith

3 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Thus <3541 koh > saith

<0559 >amar > Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >, This <2088 zeh > day

<3117 yowm > [is] a day <3117 yowm > of trouble <6869 tsarah >,

4 It may be the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym >

will hear <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of Rabshakeh

<7262 Rabshaqeh >, whom <0834 >aher > the king <4428 melek > of

Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr > his master <0113 >adown > hath sent

<7971 shalach > to reproach <2778 charaph. > the living <2416

words <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

thy God <0430 >elohiym > hath heard <8085 shama< >: wherefore

lift <5375 nasa> > up [thy] prayer <8605 t@phillah > for the

remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > that is left <4672 matsa> >.

5 So the servants <5650 <ebed > of king <4428 melek > Hezekiah

<2396 Chizqiyah > came <0935 bow> > to Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah >.

6 And Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Thus <3541 koh > shall ye say <0559 >amar > unto your master

<0113 >adown >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >, Be not afraid <3372 yare> > of the words <1697

Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr > have blasphemed <1442 gadaph > me.

7 Behold <2005 hen >, I will send <7971 shalach > a blast <7307

ruwach > upon him, and he shall hear <8085 shama< > a rumour

<8052 sh@muw<ah >, and return <7725 shuwb > to his own land

<0776 >erets >; and I will cause him to fall <5307 naphal > by

the sword <2719 chereb > in his own land <0776 >erets >.

8. So Rabshakeh <7262 Rabshaqeh > returned <7725 shuwb >, and

found <4672 matsa> > the king <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804

>Ashshuwr > warring <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > Libnah

<3841 Libnah >: for he had heard <8085 shama< > that he was

departed <5265 naca< > from Lachish <3923 Lachiysh >.

9 And he heard <8085 shama< > say <0559 >amar > concerning

Ethiopia <3568 Kuwsh >, He is come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318

<8085 shama< > [it], he sent <7971 shalach > messengers <4397

10 Thus <3541 koh > shall ye speak <0559 >amar > to Hezekiah

<2396 Chizqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >,

saying <0559 >amar >, Let not thy God <0430 >elohiym >, in whom

11 Behold <2009 hinneh >, thou hast heard <8085 shama< > what

<0834 >aher > the kings <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr

delivered <5337 natsal >?

12 Have the gods <0430 >elohiym > of the nations <1471 gowy >

delivered <5337 natsal > them which <0834 >aher > my fathers <1>

have destroyed <7843 shachath >, [as] Gozan <1470 Gowzan >, and

Haran <2771 Charan >, and Rezeph <7530 Retseph >, and the

children <1121 ben > of Eden <5731 <Eden > which <0834 >aher >

[were] in Telassar <8515 T@la>ssar >?

13 Where <0346 >ayeh > [is] the king <4428 melek > of Hamath

Sepharvaim <5617 C@pharvayim >, Hena <2012 Hena< >, and Ivah

<5755 <Ivvah >?

14 And Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > received <3947 laqach > the

letter <5612 cepher > from the hand <3027 yad > of the

messengers <4397 mal>ak >, and read <7121 qara> > it: and

Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > went <5927 <alah > up unto the house

15 And Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > prayed <6419 palal > unto the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, saying <0559 >amar >,

16 O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, God <0430

17 Incline <5186 natah > thine ear <0241 >ozen >, O LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, and hear <8085 shama< >; open <6491 paqach > thine

18 Of a truth <0551 >omnam >, LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, the kings

<4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr > have laid waste <2717

19 And have cast <5414 nathan > their gods <0430 >elohiym >

into the fire <0784 >esh >: for they [were] no <3808 lo> > gods

therefore they have destroyed <6> them.

20 Now <6258 <attah > therefore, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God

21. Then Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > the son <1121 ben > of Amoz

<0531 >Amowts > sent <7971 shalach > unto Hezekiah <2396

Chizqiyah >, saying <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559

king <4428 melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >:

22 This <2088 zeh > [is] the word <1697 dabar > which <0834

concerning <5921 <al > him; The virgin <1330 b@thuwlah >, the

the daughter <1323 bath > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > hath

shaken <5128 nuwa< > her head <7218 ro>sh > at thee.

23 Whom hast thou reproached <2778 charaph. > and blasphemed

Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

24 By thy servants <5650 <ebed > hast thou reproached <2778

charaph. > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >, and hast said <0559 >amar >,

By the multitude <7230 rob > of my chariots <7393 rekeb > am I

come <5927 <alah > up to the height <4791 marowm > of the

mountains <2022 har >, to the sides <3411 y@rekah > of Lebanon

<3844 L@banown >; and I will cut <3772 karath > down the tall

<6967 qowmah > cedars <0730 >erez > thereof, [and] the choice

enter <0935 bow> > into the height <4791 marowm > of his border

<7093 qets >, [and] the forest <3293 ya<ar > of his Carmel <3760

25 I have digged <5365 naqar >, and drunk <8354 shathah > water

<4325 mayim >; and with the sole <3709 kaph > of my feet <6471

pa<am > have I dried <2717 charab > up all <3605 kol > the

26 Hast thou not heard <8085 shama< > long <5704 <ad > ago

<7350 rachowq >, [how] I have done <6213 <asah > it; [and] of

ancient <6924 qedem > times <3117 yowm >, that I have formed

defenced <1219 batsar > cities <5892 <iyr > [into] ruinous <5327

27 Therefore their inhabitants <3427 yashab > [were] of small

<7116 qatser > power <3027 yad >, they were dismayed <2865

chathath > and confounded <0954 buwsh >: they were [as] the

chatsiyr > on the housetops <1406 gag >, and [as corn] blasted

<7709 sh@demah > before <6440 paniym > it be grown <6965 quwm >

28 But I know <3045 yada< > thy abode <3427 yashab >, and thy

going <3318 yatsa> > out, and thy coming <0935 bow> > in, and

thy rage <7264 ragaz > against <0413 >el > me.

29 Because <3282 ya<an > thy rage <7264 ragaz > against <0413

up into mine ears <0241 >ozen >, therefore will I put <7760 suwm

30 And this <2088 zeh > [shall be] a sign <0226 >owth > unto

thee, Ye shall eat <0398 >akal > [this] year <8141 shaneh > such

31 And the remnant <7604 sha>ar > that is escaped <6413

p@leytah > of the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >

shall again take root <8328 sheresh > downward <4295 mattah >,

and bear <6213 <asah > fruit <6529 p@riy > upward <4605 ma<al >:

32 For out of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > shall go <3318

they that escape <6413 p@leytah > out of mount <2022 har > Zion

<6726 Tsiyown >: the zeal <7068 qin>ah > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > shall do <6213 <asah > this

<2063 zo>th >.

33 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > concerning <0413 >el > the king <4428

melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >, He shall not come <0935

34 By the way <1870 derek > that he came <0935 bow> >, by the

same shall he return <7725 shuwb >, and shall not come <0935

saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

35 For I will defend <1598 ganan > this <2063 zo>th > city

<5892 <iyr > to save <3467 yasha< > it for mine own sake, and

for my servant <5650 <ebed > David's <1732 David > sake <4616

ma<an >.

36 Then the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >, and smote <5221 nakah

arose <2224 zarach > early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242

boqer >, behold <2009 hinneh >, they [were] all <3605 kol > dead

<4191 muwth > corpses <6297 peger >.

37 So Sennacherib <5576 Cancheriyb > king <4428 melek > of

Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr > departed <5265 naca< >, and went <3212

yalak > and returned <7725 shuwb >, and dwelt <3427 yashab > at

Nineveh <5210 Niyn@veh >.

38 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as he was worshipping

Nicrok > his god <0430 >elohiym >, that Adrammelech <0152

they escaped <4422 malat > into the land <0776 >erets > of

his son <1121 ben > reigned <4427 malak > in his stead <8478

Isaiah 38

1. In those <1992 hem > days <3117 yowm > was Hezekiah <2396

Chizqiyah > sick <2470 chalah > unto death <4191 muwth >. And

Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > the son

<1121 ben > of Amoz <0531 >Amowts > came <0935 bow> > unto him,

and said <0559 >amar > unto him, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559

in order <6680 tsavah >: for thou shalt die <4191 muwth >, and

not live <2421 chayah >.

2 Then Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > turned <5437 cabab > his face

<6440 paniym > toward <0413 >el > the wall <7023 qiyr >, and

prayed <6419 palal > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

3 And said <0559 >amar >, Remember <2142 zakar > now <4994 na>

<0834 >aher > I have walked <1980 halak > before <6440 paniym >

thee in truth <0571 >emeth > and with a perfect <8003 shalem >

heart <3820 leb >, and have done <6213 <asah > [that which is]

good <2896 towb > in thy sight <5869 <ayin >. And Hezekiah <2396

Chizqiyah > wept <1058 bakah > sore <1419 gadowl >.

4 Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > to Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah >, saying <0559 >amar

5 Go <1980 halak >, and say <0559 >amar > to Hezekiah <2396

Chizqiyah >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, the God <0430 >elohiym > of David <1732 David > thy

t@phillah >, I have seen <7200 ra>ah > thy tears <1832 dim<ah >:

behold <2005 hen >, I will add <3254 yacaph > unto thy days

<3117 yowm > fifteen <6240 <asar > years <8141 shaneh >.

6 And I will deliver <5337 natsal > thee and this <2063 zo>th >

city <5892 <iyr > out of the hand <3709 kaph > of the king <4428

melek > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >: and I will defend <1598

ganan > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr >.

7 And this <2088 zeh > [shall be] a sign <0226 >owth > unto

thee from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

that he hath spoken <1696 dabar >;

8 Behold <2005 hen >, I will bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725

shuwb > the shadow <6738 tsel > of the degrees <4609 ma<alah >,

So the sun <8121 shemesh > returned <7725 shuwb > ten <6235

<eser > degrees <4609 ma<alah >, by which degrees <4609 ma<alah

9. The writing <4385 miktab > of Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >

king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, when he had been

sick <2470 chalah >, and was recovered <2421 chayah > of his

sickness <2483 choliy >:

10 I said <0559 >amar > in the cutting <1824 d@miy > off of my

sha<ar > of the grave <7585 sh@>owl >: I am deprived <6485 paqad

11 I said <0559 >amar >, I shall not see <7200 ra>ah > the LORD

<3427 yashab > of the world <2309 chedel >.

12 Mine age <1755 dowr > is departed <5265 naca< >, and is

removed <1556 galal > from me as a shepherd's <7473 ro<iy > tent

<0168 >ohel >: I have cut <7088 qaphad > off like a weaver <0707

with pining <1803 dallah > sickness: from day <3117 yowm >

[even] to night <3915 layil > wilt thou make an end <7999 shalam

13 I reckoned <7737 shavah > till <5704 <ad > morning <1242

break <7665 shabar > all <3605 kol > my bones <6106 <etsem >:

from day <3117 yowm > [even] to night <3915 layil > wilt thou

make an end <7999 shalam > of me.

14 Like a crane <5483 cuwc > [or] a swallow <5693 <aguwr >, so

<3651 ken > did I chatter <6850 tsaphaph >: I did mourn <1897

hagah > as a dove <3123 yownah >: mine eyes <5869 <ayin > fail

<1809 dalal > [with looking] upward <4791 marowm >: O LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, I am oppressed <6234 <oshqah >; undertake <6148 <arab

15 What <4100 mah > shall I say <1696 dabar >? he hath both

spoken <0559 >amar > unto me, and himself <1931 huw> > hath done

<6213 <asah > [it]: I shall go <1718 dadah > softly all <3605

kol > my years <8141 shaneh > in the bitterness <4751 mar > of

my soul <5315 nephesh >.

16 O Lord <0136 >Adonay >, by these <5921 <al > [things men]

live <2421 chayah >, and in all <3605 kol > these [things is]

the life <2416 chay > of my spirit <7307 ruwach >: so wilt thou

recover <2492 chalam > me, and make me to live <2421 chayah >.

17 Behold <2009 hinneh >, for peace <7965 shalowm > I had great

bitterness <4843 marar >: but thou hast in love <2836 chashaq >

to my soul <5315 nephesh > [delivered it] from the pit <7845

shachath > of corruption <1097 b@liy >: for thou hast cast <7993

shalak > all <3605 kol > my sins <2399 chet> > behind <0310

18 For the grave <7585 sh@>owl > cannot <3808 lo> > praise

<3034 yadah > thee, death <4194 maveth > can <3201 yakol > [not]

celebrate <1984 halal > thee: they that go <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > into the pit <0953 bowr > cannot <3808 lo> > hope

<7663 sabar > for thy truth <0571 >emeth >.

19 The living <2416 chay >, the living <2416 chay >, he shall

praise <3034 yadah > thee, as I [do] this day <3117 yowm >: the

father <1> to the children <1121 ben > shall make known <3045

yada< > thy truth <0571 >emeth >.

20 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > [was ready] to save <3467 yasha< >

me: therefore we will sing my songs <5058 n@giynah > to the

stringed <5058 n@giynah > instruments all <3605 kol > the days

<3117 yowm > of our life <2416 chay > in the house <1004 bayith

21 For Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > had said <0559 >amar >, Let

them take <5375 nasa> > a lump <1690 d@belah > of figs <8384

t@>en >, and lay [it] for a plaister <4799 marach > upon the

boil <7822 sh@chiyn >, and he shall recover <2421 chayah >.

22 Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > also had said <0559 >amar >, What

<4100 mah > [is] the sign <0226 >owth > that I shall go <5927

Isaiah 39

1. At that time <6256 <eth > Merodachbaladan <4757 M@ro>dak

Bal>adan >, the son <1121 ben > of Baladan <1081 Bal>adan >,

king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel >, sent <7971 shalach

Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >: for he had heard <8085 shama< > that

he had been sick <2470 chalah >, and was recovered <2388 chazaq

2 And Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > was glad <8056 sameach > of

them, and shewed <7200 ra>ah > them the house <1004 bayith > of

his precious <5238 n@koth > things, the silver <3701 keceph >,

and the gold <2091 zahab >, and the spices <1314 besem >, and

the precious <2896 towb > ointment <8081 shemen >, and all <3605

all <3605 kol > that was found <4672 matsa> > in his treasures

nor in all <3605 kol > his dominion <4475 memshalah >, that

Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > shewed <7200 ra>ah > them not.

3 Then came <0935 bow> > Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > the prophet

<5030 nabiy> > unto king <4428 melek > Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah

whence <0370 >aiyn > came <0935 bow> > they unto thee? And

Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > said <0559 >amar >, They are come

<0935 bow> > from a far <7350 rachowq > country <0776 >erets >

unto me, [even] from Babylon <0894 Babel >.

4 Then said <0559 >amar > he, What <4100 mah > have they seen

Chizqiyah > answered <0559 >amar >, All <3605 kol > that [is] in

mine house <1004 bayith > have they seen <7200 ra>ah >: there is

nothing among my treasures <0214 >owtsar > that I have not

shewed <7200 ra>ah > them.

5. Then said <0559 >amar > Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > to Hezekiah

<2396 Chizqiyah >, Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of

7 And of thy sons <1121 ben > that shall issue <3318 yatsa> >

8 Then said <0559 >amar > Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah > to Isaiah

<3470 Y@sha<yah >, Good <1319 basar > [is] the word <1697 dabar

Isaiah 40

1. Comfort <5162 nacham > ye, comfort <5162 nacham > ye my

3. The voice <6963 qowl > of him that crieth <7121 qara> > in

And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > shall I cry <7121

ye compare <6186 <arak > unto him?

19 The workman <2796 charash > melteth <5258 nacak > a graven

20 He that [is] so impoverished <5533 cakan > that he hath no

from the foundations <4146 mowcadah > of the earth <0776 >erets

22 [It is] he that sitteth <3427 yashab > upon the circle <2329

24 Yea <0637 >aph >, they shall not be planted <5193 nata< >;

27. Why <4100 mah > sayest <0559 >amar > thou, O Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, and speakest <1696 dabar >, O Israel <3478 Yisra>el >,

My way <1870 derek > is hid <5641 cathar > from the LORD <3068

28 Hast thou not known <3045 yada< >? hast thou not heard <8085

[there is] no <0369 >ayin > searching <2714 cheqer > of his

29 He giveth <5414 nathan > power <3581 koach > to the faint

<0202 >own > he increaseth <7235 rabah > strength <6109 <otsmah

30 Even the youths <5288 na<ar > shall faint <3286 ya<aph > and

31 But they that wait <6960 qavah > upon the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

Isaiah 41

1. Keep silence <2790 charash > before <0413 >el > me, O

2 Who <4310 miy > raised <5782 <uwr > up the righteous <6664

[them] as the dust <6083 <aphar > to his sword <2719 chereb >,

[and] as driven <5086 nadaph > stubble <7179 qash > to his bow

3 He pursued <7291 radaph > them, [and] passed <5674 <abar >

safely <7965 shalowm >; [even] by the way <0734 >orach > [that]

he had not gone <0935 bow> > with his feet <7272 regel >.

4 Who <4310 miy > hath wrought <6466 pa<al > and done <6213

<asah > [it], calling <7121 qara> > the generations <1755 dowr >

from the beginning <7218 ro>sh >? I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

the first <7223 ri>shown >, and with the last <0314 >acharown >;

I [am] he.

5 The isles <0339 >iy > saw <7200 ra>ah > [it], and feared

<3372 yare> >; the ends <7098 qatsah > of the earth <0776 >erets

6 They helped <5826 <azar > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh

good <1390 Gib<ah > courage <2388 chazaq >.

7 So the carpenter <2796 charash > encouraged <2388 chazaq >

the goldsmith <6884 tsaraph >, [and] he that smootheth <2505

halam > the anvil <6471 pa<am >, saying <0559 >amar >, It [is]

fastened <2388 chazaq > it with nails <4548 macmer >, [that] it

should not be moved <4131 mowt >.

8 But thou, Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, [art] my servant <5650

<0977 bachar >, the seed <2233 zera< > of Abraham <85> my friend

9 [Thou] whom <0834 >aher > I have taken <2388 chazaq > from

the ends <7098 qatsah > of the earth <0776 >erets >, and called

<7121 qara> > thee from the chief <0678 >atsiyl > men thereof,

and said <0559 >amar > unto thee, Thou [art] my servant <5650

<ebed >; I have chosen <0977 bachar > thee, and not cast <3988

10. Fear <3372 yare> > thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not

dismayed <8159 sha<ah >; for I [am] thy God <0430 >elohiym >: I

will strengthen <0553 >amats > thee; yea <0637 >aph >, I will

of my righteousness <6664 tsedeq >.

11 Behold <2005 hen >, all <3605 kol > they that were incensed

<2734 charah > against thee shall be ashamed <0954 buwsh > and

confounded <3637 kalam >: they shall be as nothing <0369 >ayin >;

and they that strive <7379 riyb > with thee shall perish <6>.

12 Thou shalt seek <1245 baqash > them, and shalt not find

<4672 matsa> > them, [even] them that contended <4695 matstsuwth

be as nothing <0369 >ayin >, and as a thing of nought <0657

13 For I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym > will

hold <2388 chazaq > thy right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >,

saying <0559 >amar > unto thee, Fear <3372 yare> > not; I will

help <5826 <azar > thee.

14 Fear <3372 yare> > not, thou worm <8438 towla< > Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, [and] ye men <4962 math > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >;

I will help <5826 <azar > thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >, and thy redeemer <1350 ga>al >, the Holy <6918

qadowsh > One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

15 Behold <2009 hinneh >, I will make <7760 suwm > thee a new

<2319 chadash > sharp <2742 charuwts > threshing <4173 mowrag >

instrument having <1167 ba<al > teeth <6374 piyphiyah >: thou

<1854 daqaq > [them] small <1854 daqaq >, and shalt make <7760

suwm > the hills <1389 gib<ah > as chaff <4671 mots >.

16 Thou shalt fan <2219 zarah > them, and the wind <7307 ruwach

<1984 halal > in the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of Israel <3478

17 [When] the poor <6041 <aniy > and needy <34> seek <1245

<6030 <anah > them, I the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478

Yisra>el > will not forsake <5800 <azab > them.

18 I will open <6605 pathach > rivers <5103 n@har > in high

<8203 Sh@phatyah > places, and fountains <4599 ma<yan > in the

midst <8432 tavek > of the valleys <1237 biq<ah >: I will make

<7760 suwm > the wilderness <4057 midbar > a pool <98> of water

springs <4161 mowtsa> > of water <4325 mayim >.

19 I will plant <5414 nathan > in the wilderness <4057 midbar >

the cedar <0730 >erez >, the shittah <7848 shittah > tree <6086

<3162 yachad >, that the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD <3068

21. Produce <7126 qarab > your cause <7379 riyb >, saith <0559

24 Behold <2005 hen >, ye [are] of nothing <0369 >ayin >, and

your work <6467 po<al > of nought <0659 >epha< >: an abomination

15 I will make <7760 suwm > waste <2717 charab > mountains

<4285 machshak > light <0216 >owr > before <6440 paniym > them,

These <0428 >el-leh > things <1697 dabar > will I do <6213 <asah

17 They shall be turned <5472 cuwg > back <0268 >achowr >, they

19 Who <4310 miy > [is] blind <5787 <ivver >, but my servant

20 Seeing <7200 ra>ah > many <7227 rab > things, but thou

observest <8104 shamar > not; opening <6491 paqach > the ears

21 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > is well <2654 chaphets > pleased

<2654 chaphets > for his righteousness <6664 tsedeq >' sake

<4616 ma<an >; he will magnify <1431 gadal > the law <8451

22 But this <1931 huw> > [is] a people <5971 <am > robbed <0962

delivereth <5337 natsal >; for a spoil <4933 m@chiccah >, and

none <0369 >ayin > saith <0559 >amar >, Restore <7725 shuwb >.

23 Who <4310 miy > among you will give ear <0238 >azan > to

this <2063 zo>th >? [who] will hearken <7181 qashab > and hear

<8085 shama< > for the time <0268 >achowr > to come?

24 Who <4310 miy > gave <5414 nathan > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >

for a spoil <4882 m@shuwcah >, and Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to

the robbers <0962 bazaz >? did not the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, he

against whom <2098 zuw > we have sinned <2398 chata> >? for they

would <14> not walk <1980 halak > in his ways <1870 derek >,

neither <3808 lo> > were they obedient <8085 shama< > unto his

law <8451 towrah >.

25 Therefore he hath poured <8210 shaphak > upon him the fury

<2534 chemah > of his anger <0639 >aph >, and the strength <5807

<ezuwz > of battle <4421 milchamah >: and it hath set <7760 suwm

Isaiah 43

1. But now <6258 <attah > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that created <1254 bara> > thee, O

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and he that formed <3335 yatsar > thee, O

redeemed <1350 ga>al > thee, I have called <7121 qara> > [thee]

by thy name <8034 shem >; thou [art] mine.

2 When <3588 kiy > thou passest <5674 <abar > through the

waters <4325 mayim >, I [will be] with thee; and through the

rivers <5103 n@har >, they shall not overflow <7857 shataph >

thee: when <3588 kiy > thou walkest <3212 yalak > through <1119

kavah >; neither <3808 lo> > shall the flame <3852 lehabah >

kindle <1197 ba<ar > upon thee.

3 For I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym >,

the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, thy

Saviour <3467 yasha< >: I gave <5414 nathan > Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim > [for] thy ransom <3724 kopher >, Ethiopia <3568

4 Since thou wast precious <3365 yaqar > in my sight <5869

loved <0157 >ahab > thee: therefore will I give <5414 nathan >

men <0120 >adam > for thee, and people <3816 l@om > for thy life

my name <8034 shem >: for I have created <1254 bara> > him for

my glory <3519 kabowd >, I have formed <3335 yatsar > him; yea

9 Let all <3605 kol > the nations <1471 gowy > be gathered

10 Ye [are] my witnesses <5707 <ed >, saith <5002 n@>um > the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and my servant <5650 <ebed > whom <0834

12 I have declared <5046 nagad >, and have saved <3467 yasha< >,

and I have shewed <8085 shama< >, when [there was] no <0369

13 Yea <1571 gam >, before the day <3117 yowm > [was] I [am] he;

14. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

bariyach >, and the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy >, whose cry <7440

15 I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, your Holy <6918 qadowsh >

One, the creator <1254 bara> > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, your

King <4428 melek >.

16 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

17 Which bringeth <3318 yatsa> > forth <4161 mowtsa> > the

chariot <7393 rekeb > and horse <5483 cuwc >, the army <2428

not rise <6965 quwm >: they are extinct <1846 da<ak >, they are

18 Remember <2142 zakar > ye not the former <7223 ri>shown >

old <6931 qadmowniy >.

19 Behold <2005 hen >, I will do <6213 <asah > a new <2319

20 The beast <2416 chay > of the field <7704 sadeh > shall

honour <3513 kabad > me, the dragons <8577 tanniyn > and the

owls: because <3588 kiy > I give <5414 nathan > waters <4325

n@har > in the desert <3452 y@shiymown >, to give drink <8248

21 This <2098 zuw > people <5971 <am > have I formed <3335

22. But thou hast not called <7121 qara> > upon me, O Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >; but thou hast been weary <3021 yaga< > of me, O

Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

23 Thou hast not brought <0935 bow> > me the small cattle <7716

offering <4503 minchah >, nor <3808 lo> > wearied <3021 yaga< >

thee with incense <3828 l@bownah >.

24 Thou hast bought <7069 qanah > me no <3808 lo> > sweet cane

hast thou filled <7301 ravah > me with the fat <2459 cheleb > of

<5647 <abad > with thy sins <2403 chatta>ah >, thou hast wearied

<3021 yaga< > me with thine iniquities <5771 <avon >.

25 I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth <4229 machah > out thy

transgressions <6588 pesha< > for mine own sake <4616 ma<an >,

26 Put me in remembrance <2142 zakar >: let us plead <8199

28 Therefore I have profaned <2490 chalal > the princes <8269

Isaiah 44

1. Yet now <6258 <attah > hear <8085 shama< >, O Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > my servant <5650 <ebed >; and Israel <3478 Yisra>el >,

whom I have chosen <0977 bachar >:

2 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

that made <6213 <asah > thee, and formed <3335 yatsar > thee

from the womb <0990 beten >, [which] will help <5826 <azar >

servant <5650 <ebed >; and thou, Jesurun <3484 Y@shuruwn >, whom

I have chosen <0977 bachar >.

that is thirsty <6771 tsame> >, and floods <5140 nazal > upon

the dry <3004 yabbashah > ground: I will pour <3332 yatsaq > my

4 And they shall spring <6779 tsamach > up [as] among <0996

7 And who <4310 miy >, as I, shall call <7121 qara> >, and

beside <1107 bil<adey > me? yea, [there is] no <0369 >ayin > God

9. They that make <3335 yatsar > a graven <6459 pecel > image

[are] all <3605 kol > of them vanity <8414 tohuw >; and their

ashamed <0954 buwsh > together <3162 yachad >.

12 The smith with the tongs <4621 ma<atsad > both worketh <6466

he planteth <5192 netel > an ash <0766 >oren >, and the rain

15 Then shall it be for a man <0120 >adam > to burn <1197 ba<ar

16 He burneth <8313 saraph > part <2677 chetsiy > thereof in

he falleth <5456 cagad > down <5456 cagad > unto it, and

worshippeth <7812 shachah > [it], and prayeth <6419 palal > unto

18 They have not known <3045 yada< > nor understood <0995 biyn

neither <3808 lo> > shall I know <3045 yada< > the loss <7921

shakol > of children:

9 But these <0428 >el-leh > two <8147 sh@nayim > [things] shall

come <0935 bow> > to thee in a moment <7281 rega< > in one <0259

>echad > day <3117 yowm >, the loss <7921 shakol > of children,

and widowhood <0489 >almon >: they shall come <0935 bow> > upon

thee in their perfection <8537 tom > for the multitude <7230 rob

m@<od > abundance <6109 <otsmah > of thine enchantments <2267

cheber >.

10 For thou hast trusted <0982 batach > in thy wickedness <7451

ra< >: thou hast said <0559 >amar >, None <0369 >ayin > seeth

<7200 ra>ah > me. Thy wisdom <2451 chokmah > and thy knowledge

<1847 da<ath >, it hath perverted <7725 shuwb > thee; and thou

hast said <0559 >amar > in thine heart <3820 leb >, I [am], and

none <0657 >ephec > else <5750 <owd > beside <0657 >ephec > me.

11 Therefore shall evil <7451 ra< > come <0935 bow> > upon thee;

thou shalt not know <3045 yada< > from whence <0370 >aiyn > it

riseth <7837 shachar >: and mischief <1943 hovah > shall fall

<5307 naphal > upon thee; thou shalt not be able <3201 yakol >

to put <3722 kaphar > it off: and desolation <7722 show> > shall

come <0935 bow> > upon thee suddenly <6597 pith>owm >, [which]

thou shalt not know <3045 yada< >.

12 Stand <5975 <amad > now <4994 na> > with thine enchantments

<2267 cheber >, and with the multitude <7230 rob > of thy

sorceries <3785 kesheph >, wherein <0834 >aher > thou hast

laboured <3021 yaga< > from thy youth <5271 na<uwr >; if <0194

ya<al >, if <0194 >uwlay > so be thou mayest prevail <6206

<arats >.

13 Thou art wearied <3811 la>ah > in the multitude <7230 rob >

of thy counsels <6098 <etsah >. Let now <4994 na> > the

astrologers <1895 habar >, the stargazers, the monthly <2320

chodesh > prognosticators <3045 yada< >, stand <5975 <amad > up,

and save <3467 yasha< > thee from [these things] that shall come

<0935 bow> > upon thee.

14 Behold <2009 hinneh >, they shall be as stubble <7179 qash >;

the fire <0784 >esh > shall burn <8313 saraph > them; they

shall not deliver <5337 natsal > themselves <5315 nephesh > from

the power <3027 yad > of the flame <3852 lehabah >: [there

shall] not [be] a coal <1513 gechel > to warm <2552 chamam > at,

[nor] fire <0217 >uwr > to sit <3427 yashab > before <5048 neged

15 Thus <3651 ken > shall they be unto thee with whom <0834

>aher > thou hast laboured <3021 yaga< >, [even] thy merchants

<5503 cachar >, from thy youth <5271 na<uwr >: they shall wander

<8582 ta<ah > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > to his

quarter <5676 <eber >; none <0369 >ayin > shall save <3467

Isaiah 48

1. Hear <8085 shama< > ye this <2063 zo>th >, O house <1004

bayith > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, which are called <7121 qara>

come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the waters <4325

mayim > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, which swear <7650 shaba< > by

the name <8034 shem > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and make

mention <2142 zakar > of the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel

<3478 Yisra>el >, [but] not in truth <0571 >emeth >, nor <3808

lo> > in righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >.

2 For they call <7121 qara> > themselves of the holy <6944

qodesh > city <5892 <iyr >, and stay <5564 camak > themselves

upon the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; The

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > [is] his name <8034

shem >.

3 I have declared <5046 nagad > the former <7223 ri>shown >

things from the beginning <0227 >az >; and they went <3318

yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of my mouth <6310 peh >, and I

shewed <8085 shama< > them; I did <6213 <asah > [them] suddenly

<6597 pith>owm >, and they came <0935 bow> > to pass.

4 Because I knew <1847 da<ath > that thou [art] obstinate <7186

qasheh >, and thy neck <6203 <oreph > [is] an iron <1270 barzel

n@chuwshah >;

5 I have even from the beginning <0227 >az > declared <5046

nagad > [it] to thee; before <2962 terem > it came <0935 bow> >

to pass I shewed <8085 shama< > [it] thee: lest <6435 pen > thou

shouldest say <0559 >amar >, Mine idol <6090 <otseb > hath done

<6213 <asah > them, and my graven <6459 pecel > image, and my

molten <5262 necek > image, hath commanded <6680 tsavah > them.

6 Thou hast heard <8085 shama< >, see <2372 chazah > all <3605

kol > this; and will not ye declare <5046 nagad > [it]? I have

shewed <8085 shama< > thee new <2319 chadash > things from this

time <6258 <attah >, even hidden <5341 natsar > things, and thou

didst not know <3045 yada< > them.

7 They are created <1254 bara> > now <6258 <attah >, and not

from the beginning <0227 >az >; even before <6440 paniym > the

day <3117 yowm > when thou heardest <8085 shama< > them not;

lest <6435 pen > thou shouldest say <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009

hinneh >, I knew <3045 yada< > them.

8 Yea <1571 gam >, thou heardest <8085 shama< > not; yea <1571

gam >, thou knewest <3045 yada< > not; yea <1571 gam >, from

that time <0227 >az > [that] thine ear <0241 >ozen > was not

opened <6605 pathach >: for I knew <3045 yada< > that thou

wouldest deal very <0898 bagad > treacherously <0898 bagad >,

and wast called <7121 qara> > a transgressor <6586 pasha< > from

the womb <0990 beten >.

9. For my name's <8034 shem > sake <4616 ma<an > will I defer

<0748 >arak > mine anger <0639 >aph >, and for my praise <8416

t@hillah > will I refrain <2413 chatam > for thee, that I cut

<3772 karath > thee not off.

10 Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have refined <6884 tsaraph > thee,

but not with silver <3701 keceph >; I have chosen <0977 bachar >

thee in the furnace <3564 kuwr > of affliction <6040 <oniy >.

11 For mine own sake <4616 ma<an >, [even] for mine own sake

<4616 ma<an >, will I do <6213 <asah > [it]: for how <0349 >eyk

give <5414 nathan > my glory <3519 kabowd > unto another <0312

12 Hearken <8085 shama< > unto me, O Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > and

Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, my called <7121 qara> >; I [am] he; I

[am] the first <7223 ri>shown >, I also <0637 >aph > [am] the

last <0314 >acharown >.

13 Mine hand <3027 yad > also <0637 >aph > hath laid the

foundation <3245 yacad > of the earth <0776 >erets >, and my

right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > hath spanned <2946

taphach > the heavens <8064 shamayim >: [when] I call <7121

qara> > unto them, they stand <5975 <amad > up together <3162

yachad >.

14 All <3605 kol > ye, assemble <6908 qabats > yourselves, and

hear <8085 shama< >; which <4310 miy > among them hath declared

<5046 nagad > these <0428 >el-leh > [things]? The LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath loved <0157 >ahab > him: he will do <6213 <asah >

his pleasure <2656 chephets > on Babylon <0894 Babel >, and his

arm <2220 z@rowa< > [shall be on] the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy >.

15 I, [even] I, have spoken <1696 dabar >; yea <0637 >aph >, I

have called <7121 qara> > him: I have brought <0935 bow> > him,

and he shall make his way <1870 derek > prosperous <6743 tsalach

16. Come <7126 qarab > ye near <7126 qarab > unto me, hear

<8085 shama< > ye this <2063 zo>th >; I have not spoken <1696

dabar > in secret <5643 cether > from the beginning <7218 ro>sh

[am] I: and now <6258 <attah > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

<3069 Y@hovih >, and his Spirit <7307 ruwach >, hath sent <7971

shalach > me.

17 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God

<0430 >elohiym > which teacheth <3925 lamad > thee to profit

<3276 ya<al >, which leadeth <1869 darak > thee by the way <1870

derek > [that] thou shouldest go <3212 yalak >.

18 O that thou hadst hearkened <7181 qashab > to my

commandments <4687 mitsvah >! then had thy peace <7965 shalowm >

been <1961 hayah > as a river <5104 nahar >, and thy

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > as the waves <1530 gal > of the

sea <3220 yam >:

19 Thy seed <2233 zera< > also had been <1961 hayah > as the

sand <2344 chowl >, and the offspring <6631 tse>etsa> > of thy

bowels <4578 me<ah > like the gravel <4579 me<ah > thereof; his

20 Go <3318 yatsa> > ye forth <3318 yatsa> > of Babylon <0894

Babel >, flee <1272 barach > ye from the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy

<3318 yatsa> > it [even] to the end <7097 qatseh > of the earth

<0776 >erets >; say <0559 >amar > ye, The LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

hath redeemed <1350 ga>al > his servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >.

21 And they thirsted <6770 tsame> > not [when] he led <3212

yalak > them through the deserts <2723 chorbah >: he caused the

waters <4325 mayim > to flow <5140 nazal > out of the rock <6697

also, and the waters <4325 mayim > gushed <2100 zuwb > out.

22 [There is] no <0369 >ayin > peace <7965 shalowm >, saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, unto the wicked <7563

rasha< >.

Isaiah 49

1. Listen <8085 shama< >, O isles <0339 >iy >, unto me; and

hearken <7181 qashab >, ye people <3816 l@om >, from far <7350

rachowq >; The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath called <7121 qara> > me

from the womb <0990 beten >; from the bowels <4578 me<ah > of my

mother <0517 >em > hath he made mention <2142 zakar > of my name

<8034 shem >.

2 And he hath made <7760 suwm > my mouth <6310 peh > like a

sharp <2299 chad > sword <2719 chereb >; in the shadow <6738

tsel > of his hand <3027 yad > hath he hid <2244> me, and made

<7760 suwm > me a polished <1305 barar > shaft <2671 chets >; in

his quiver <0827 >ashpah > hath he hid <5641 cathar > me;

3 And said <0559 >amar > unto me, Thou [art] my servant <5650

<ebed >, O Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, in whom <0834 >aher > I will

be glorified <6286 pa>ar >.

4 Then I said <0559 >amar >, I have laboured <3021 yaga< > in

vain <7385 riyq >, I have spent <3615 kalah > my strength <3581

koach > for nought <8414 tohuw >, and in vain <1892 hebel >:

[yet] surely <0403 >aken > my judgment <4941 mishpat > [is] with

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and my work <6468 p@<ullah > with my

God <0430 >elohiym >.

5 And now <6258 <attah >, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > that formed <3335 yatsar > me from the womb <0990

beten > [to be] his servant <5650 <ebed >, to bring <7725 shuwb

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and my God <0430 >elohiym > shall be

my strength <5797 <oz >.

6 And he said <0559 >amar >, It is a light <7043 qalal > thing

that thou shouldest be my servant <5650 <ebed > to raise <6965

quwm > up the tribes <7626 shebet > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >,

and to restore <7725 shuwb > the preserved <5336 natsiyr > of

mayest be my salvation <3444 y@shuw<ah > unto the end <7097

7. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

his Holy <6918 qadowsh > One, to him whom man <5315 nephesh >

despiseth <0960 bazoh >, to him whom the nation <1471 gowy >

abhorreth <8581 ta<ab >, to a servant <5650 <ebed > of rulers

<4910 mashal >, Kings <4428 melek > shall see <7200 ra>ah > and

arise <6965 quwm >, princes <8269 sar > also shall worship <7812

that is faithful <0539 >aman >, [and] the Holy <6918 qadowsh >

8 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

In an acceptable <7522 ratsown > time <6256 <eth > have I heard

preserve <5341 natsar > thee, and give <5414 nathan > thee for a

[are] in darkness <2822 choshek >, Shew <1540 galah > yourselves.

They shall feed <7462 ra<ah > in the ways <1870 derek >, and

their pastures <4830 mir<iyth > [shall be] in all <3605 kol >

high <8203 Sh@phatyah > places.

10 They shall not hunger <7456 ra<eb > nor <3808 lo> > thirst

11 And I will make <7760 suwm > all <3605 kol > my mountains

these <0428 >el-leh > from the north <6828 tsaphown > and from

the west <3220 yam >; and these <0428 >el-leh > from the land

13. Sing <7442 ranan >, O heavens <8064 shamayim >; and be

joyful <1523 giyl >, O earth <0776 >erets >; and break <6476

14 But Zion <6726 Tsiyown > said <0559 >amar >, The LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath forsaken <5800 <azab > me, and my Lord <0136

15 Can a woman <0802 >ishshah > forget <7911 shakach > her

sucking <5764 <uwl > child, that she should not have compassion

yea <1571 gam >, they may forget <7911 shakach >, yet will I not

forget <7911 shakach > thee.

16 Behold <2005 hen >, I have graven <2710 chaqaq > thee upon

the palms <3709 kaph > of [my] hands <3709 kaph >; thy walls

17 Thy children <1121 ben > shall make haste <4116 mahar >; thy

19 For thy waste <2723 chorbah > and thy desolate <8074 shamem

22 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay

23 And kings <4428 melek > shall be thy nursing <0539 >aman >

24. Shall the prey <4455 malqowach > be taken <3947 laqach >

Isaiah 50

1. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

2 Wherefore <4069 madduwa< >, when I came <0935 bow> >, [was

my rebuke <1606 g@<arah > I dry <2717 charab > up the sea <3220

blackness <6940 qadruwth >, and I make <7760 suwm > sackcloth

4. The Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > hath given

<5414 nathan > me the tongue <3956 lashown > of the learned

Isaiah 51

1. Hearken <8085 shama< > to me, ye that follow <7291 radaph >

after <0310 >achar > righteousness <6664 tsedeq >, ye that seek

<1245 baqash > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: look <5027 nabat > unto

2 Look <5027 nabat > unto Abraham <85> your father <1>, and

unto Sarah <8283 Sarah > [that] bare <2342 chuwl > you: for I

called <7121 qara> > him alone <0259 >echad >, and blessed <1288

7 Hearken <8085 shama< > unto me, ye that know <3045 yada< >

righteousness <6664 tsedeq >, the people <5971 <am > in whose

neither <0408 >al > be ye afraid <2865 chathath > of their

8 For the moth <6211 <ash > shall eat <0398 >akal > them up

like a garment <0899 beged >, and the worm <5580 cac > shall eat

9. Awake <5782 <uwr >, awake <5782 <uwr >, put <3847 labash >

10 [Art] thou not it which hath dried <2717 charab > the sea

deep <8415 t@howm >; that hath made <7760 suwm > the depths

the ransomed <1350 ga>al > to pass <5674 <abar > over <5674

11 Therefore the redeemed <6299 padah > of the LORD <3068

gladness <8057 simchah > and joy <8057 simchah >; [and] sorrow

12 I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth <5162 nacham > you: who

13 And forgettest <7911 shakach > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy

maker <6213 <asah >, that hath stretched <5186 natah > forth the

heavens <8064 shamayim >, and laid the foundations <3245 yacad >

14 The captive <6808 tsa<ah > exile <6808 tsa<ah > hasteneth

15 But I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym >,

that divided <7280 raga< > the sea <3220 yam >, whose waves

<1530 gal > roared <1993 hamah >: The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of

16 And I have put <7760 suwm > my words <1697 dabar > in thy

Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have taken <3947 laqach > out of thine

his visage <4758 mar>eh > was so marred <4893 mishchath > more

the sons <1121 ben > of men <0120 >adam >:

15 So <3651 ken > shall he sprinkle <5137 nazah > many <7227

they see <7200 ra>ah >; and [that] which <0834 >aher > they had

not heard <8085 shama< > shall they consider <0995 biyn >.

Isaiah 53

1. Who <4310 miy > hath believed <0539 >aman > our report <8052

sh@muw<ah >? and to whom <4310 miy > is the arm <2220 z@rowa< >

of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > revealed <1540 galah >?

2 For he shall grow <5927 <alah > up before <6440 paniym > him

as a tender <3126 yowneq > plant, and as a root <8328 sheresh >

out of a dry <6723 tsiyah > ground <0776 >erets >: he hath no

<3808 lo> > form <8389 to>ar > nor <3808 lo> > comeliness <1926

hadar >; and when we shall see <7200 ra>ah > him, [there is] no

<3808 lo> > beauty <4758 mar>eh > that we should desire <2530

chamad > him.

3 He is despised <0959 bazah > and rejected <2310 chadel > of

men <0376 >iysh >; a man <0376 >iysh > of sorrows <4341 mak>ob >,

and acquainted <3045 yada< > with grief <2483 choliy >: and we

hid <5641 cathar > as it were [our] faces <6440 paniym > from

him; he was despised <0959 bazah >, and we esteemed him not.

4. Surely <0403 >aken > he hath borne <5375 nasa> > our griefs

<2483 choliy >, and carried <5445 cabal > our sorrows <4341

mak>ob >: yet we did esteem <2803 chashab > him stricken <5060

naga< >, smitten <5221 nakah > of God <0430 >elohiym >, and

afflicted <6031 <anah >.

5 But he [was] wounded <2490 chalal > for our transgressions

<6588 pesha< >, [he was] bruised <1792 daka> > for our

iniquities <5771 <avon >: the chastisement <4148 muwcar > of our

peace <7965 shalowm > [was] upon him; and with his stripes <2250

chabbuwrah > we are healed <7495 rapha> >.

6 All <3605 kol > we like sheep <6629 tso>n > have gone <8582

ta<ah > astray <8582 ta<ah >; we have turned <6437 panah > every

<0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > to his own way <1870 derek >;

and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath laid <6293 paga< > on him the

iniquity <5771 <avon > of us all <3605 kol >.

7 He was oppressed <5065 nagas >, and he was afflicted <6031

<anah >, yet he opened <6605 pathach > not his mouth <6310 peh >:

he is brought <2986 yabal > as a lamb <7716 seh > to the

slaughter <2875 Tebach >, and as a sheep <7353 rachel > before

<6440 paniym > her shearers <1494 gazaz > is dumb <0481 >alam >,

so he openeth <6605 pathach > not his mouth <6310 peh >.

8 He was taken <3947 laqach > from prison <6115 <otser > and

from judgment <4941 mishpat >: and who <4310 miy > shall declare

<7878 siyach > his generation <1755 dowr >? for he was cut <1504

gazar > off out of the land <0776 >erets > of the living <2416

chay >: for the transgression <6588 pesha< > of my people <5971

<am > was he stricken <5061 nega< >.

9 And he made <5414 nathan > his grave <6913 qeber > with the

wicked <7563 rasha< >, and with the rich <6223 <ashiyr > in his

death <4194 maveth >; because <5921 <al > he had done <6213

<asah > no <3808 lo> > violence <2555 chamac >, neither <3808

lo> > [was any] deceit <4820 mirmah > in his mouth <6310 peh >.

10. Yet it pleased <2654 chaphets > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > to

bruise <1792 daka> > him; he hath put [him] to grief <2470

chalah >: when <0518 >im > thou shalt make <7760 suwm > his soul

<5315 nephesh > an offering for sin <0817 >asham >, he shall see

<7200 ra>ah > [his] seed <2233 zera< >, he shall prolong <0748

his hand <3027 yad >.

11 He shall see <7200 ra>ah > of the travail <5999 <amal > of

his soul <5315 nephesh >, [and] shall be satisfied <7646 saba< >:

by his knowledge <1847 da<ath > shall my righteous <6662

tsaddiyq > servant <5650 <ebed > justify <6663 tsadaq > many

<7227 rab >; for he shall bear <5445 cabal > their iniquities

<5771 <avon >.

12 Therefore <3651 ken > will I divide <5312 n@phaq > him [a

portion] with the great <7227 rab >, and he shall divide <5312

n@phaq > the spoil <7998 shalal > with the strong <6099 <atsuwm

nephesh > unto death <4194 maveth >: and he was numbered <4487

manah > with the transgressors <6586 pasha< >; and he bare <5375

nasa> > the sin <2399 chet> > of many <7227 rab >, and made

intercession <6293 paga< > for the transgressors <6586 pasha< >.

Isaiah 54

1. Sing <7442 ranan >, O barren <6135 <aqar >, thou [that]

didst not bear <5375 nasa> >; break <6476 patsach > forth into

singing <7440 rinnah >, and cry <6670 tsahal > aloud <6670

tsahal >, thou [that] didst not travail <2342 chuwl > with child:

for more <7227 rab > [are] the children <1121 ben > of the

desolate <8074 shamem > than the children <1121 ben > of the

married <1166 ba<al > wife, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >.

2 Enlarge <7337 rachab > the place <4725 maqowm > of thy tent

<0168 >ohel >, and let them stretch <5186 natah > forth the

curtains <3407 y@riy<ah > of thine habitations <4908 mishkan >:

spare <2820 chasak > not, lengthen <0748 >arak > thy cords <4340

meythar >, and strengthen <2388 chazaq > thy stakes <3489 yathed

3 For thou shalt break <6555 parats > forth on the right <3225

yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > and on the left <8040 s@mo>wl >;

and thy seed <2233 zera< > shall inherit <3423 yarash > the

Gentiles <1471 gowy >, and make the desolate <8077 sh@mamah >

cities <5892 <iyr > to be inhabited <3427 yashab >.

4 Fear <3372 yare> > not; for thou shalt not be ashamed <0954

buwsh >: neither <0408 >al > be thou confounded <3637 kalam >;

for thou shalt not be put to shame <2659 chapher >: for thou

shalt forget <7911 shakach > the shame <1322 bosheth > of thy

youth <5934 <aluwm >, and shalt not remember <2142 zakar > the

reproach <2781 cherpah > of thy widowhood <0491 >almanuwth > any

more <5750 <owd >.

5 For thy Maker <6213 <asah > [is] thine husband <1167 ba<al >;

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > [is] his name

<8034 shem >; and thy Redeemer <1350 ga>al > the Holy <6918

qadowsh > One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; The God <0430 >elohiym

called <7121 qara> >.

6. For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath called <7121 qara> > thee

as a woman <0802 >ishshah > forsaken <5800 <azab > and grieved

<6087 <atsab > in spirit <7307 ruwach >, and a wife <0802

refused <3988 ma>ac >, saith <0559 >amar > thy God <0430

7 For a small <6996 qatan > moment <7281 rega< > have I

forsaken <5800 <azab > thee; but with great <1419 gadowl >

mercies <7356 racham > will I gather <6908 qabats > thee.

8 In a little <8241 shetseph > wrath <7110 qetseph > I hid

<5641 cathar > my face <6440 paniym > from thee for a moment

<7281 rega< >; but with everlasting <5769 <owlam > kindness

<2617 checed > will I have mercy <7355 racham > on thee, saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy Redeemer <1350 ga>al

9 For this <2063 zo>th > [is as] the waters <4325 mayim > of

Noah <5146 Noach > unto me: for [as] I have sworn <7650 shaba< >

that the waters <4325 mayim > of Noah <5146 Noach > should no

more <5750 <owd > go <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > the earth

<0776 >erets >; so <3651 ken > have I sworn <7650 shaba< > that

I would not be wroth <7107 qatsaph > with thee, nor rebuke <1605

ga<ar > thee.

10 For the mountains <2022 har > shall depart <4185 muwsh >,

and the hills <1389 gib<ah > be removed <4131 mowt >; but my

kindness <2617 checed > shall not depart <4185 muwsh > from thee,

neither <3808 lo> > shall the covenant <1285 b@riyth > of my

peace <7965 shalowm > be removed <4131 mowt >, saith <0559 >amar

thee.

11. O thou afflicted <6041 <aniy >, tossed with tempest <5590

ca<ar >, [and] not comforted <5162 nacham >, behold <2009 hinneh

12 And I will make <7760 suwm > thy windows <8121 shemesh > of

agates <3539 kadkod >, and thy gates <8179 sha<ar > of

carbuncles <68>, and all <3605 kol > thy borders <1366 g@buwl >

of pleasant <2656 chephets > stones <68>.

13 And all <3605 kol > thy children <1121 ben > [shall be]

taught <3928 limmuwd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; and great

<7227 rab > [shall be] the peace <7965 shalowm > of thy children

<1121 ben >.

14 In righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > shalt thou be established

<3559 kuwn >: thou shalt be far <7368 rachaq > from oppression

<6233 <osheq >; for thou shalt not fear <3372 yare> >: and from

terror <4288 m@chittah >; for it shall not come <7126 qarab >

near <7126 qarab > thee.

15 Behold <2005 hen >, they shall surely gather <1481 guwr >

together, [but] not by me: whosoever <4310 miy > shall gather

<1481 guwr > together against <5921 <al > thee shall fall <5307

naphal > for thy sake <4616 ma<an >.

16 Behold <2005 hen >, I have created <1254 bara> > the smith

<2796 charash > that bloweth <5301 naphach > the coals <6352

pecham > in the fire <0784 >esh >, and that bringeth <3318

his work <4639 ma<aseh >; and I have created <1254 bara> > the

waster <7843 shachath > to destroy <2254 chabal >.

17 No <3808 lo> > weapon <3627 k@liy > that is formed <3335

yatsar > against <5921 <al > thee shall prosper <6743 tsalach >;

and every <3605 kol > tongue <3956 lashown > [that] shall rise

<6965 quwm > against thee in judgment <4941 mishpat > thou shalt

condemn <7561 rasha< >. This <2063 zo>th > [is] the heritage

<5159 nachalah > of the servants <5650 <ebed > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, and their righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > [is] of me,

saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

Isaiah 55

1. Ho <1945 howy >, every <3605 kol > one that thirsteth <6771

2 Wherefore <4100 mah > do ye spend <8254 shaqal > money <3701

3 Incline <5186 natah > your ear <0241 >ozen >, and come <3212

with you, [even] the sure <0539 >aman > mercies <2617 checed >

4 Behold <2005 hen >, I have given <5414 nathan > him [for] a

witness <5707 <ed > to the people <3816 l@om >, a leader <5057

nagiyd > and commander <6680 tsavah > to the people <3816 l@om >.

5 Behold <2005 hen >, thou shalt call <7121 qara> > a nation

6. Seek <1875 darash > ye the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > while he may

be found <4672 matsa> >, call <7121 qara> > ye upon him while he

is near <7138 qarowb >:

7 Let the wicked <7563 rasha< > forsake <5800 <azab > his way

will abundantly <7235 rabah > pardon <5545 calach >.

8 For my thoughts <4284 machashabah > [are] not your thoughts

<4284 machashabah >, neither <3808 lo> > [are] your ways <1870

9 For [as] the heavens <8064 shamayim > are higher <1361 gabahh

<1870 derek > higher <1361 gabahh > than your ways <1870 derek >,

and my thoughts <4284 machashabah > than your thoughts <4284

10 For as the rain <1653 geshem > cometh <3381 yarad > down

[their] hands <3709 kaph >.

13 Instead <8478 tachath > of the thorn <5285 na<atsuwts >

instead <8478 tachath > of the brier <5636 carpad > shall come

everlasting <5769 <owlam > sign <0226 >owth > [that] shall not

be cut <3772 karath > off.

Isaiah 56

Isaiah 57

1. The righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > perisheth <6>, and no <0369

3. But draw near <7126 qarab > hither, ye sons <1121 ben > of

the sorceress <6049 <anan >, the seed <2233 zera< > of the

adulterer <5003 na>aph > and the whore <2181 zanah >.

6 Among the smooth <2511 challaq > [stones] of the stream <5158

offered <5927 <alah > a meat offering <4503 minchah >. Should I

7 Upon a lofty <1364 gaboahh > and high <5375 nasa> > mountain

even <1571 gam > thither <8033 sham > wentest <5927 <alah > thou

8 Behind <0310 >achar > the doors <1817 deleth > also and the

posts <4201 m@zuwzah > hast thou set <7760 suwm > up thy

remembrance <2146 zikrown >: for thou hast discovered <1540

galah > [thyself to another] than me, and art gone <5927 <alah >

up; thou hast enlarged <7337 rachab > thy bed <4904 mishkab >,

and made <3772 karath > thee [a covenant] with them; thou

lovedst <0157 >ahab > their bed <4904 mishkab > where <3027 yad

9 And thou wentest <7788 shuwr > to the king <4428 melek > with

ointment <8081 shemen >, and didst increase <7235 rabah > thy

perfumes <7547 raqquach >, and didst send <7971 shalach > thy

messengers <6735 tsiyr > far <7350 rachowq > off, and didst

debase <8213 shaphel > [thyself even] unto hell <7585 sh@>owl >.

10 Thou art wearied <3021 yaga< > in the greatness <7230 rob >

of thy way <1870 derek >; [yet] saidst <0559 >amar > thou not,

There is no hope <2976 ya>ash >: thou hast found <4672 matsa> >

the life <2416 chay > of thine hand <3027 yad >; therefore thou

wast not grieved <2470 chalah >.

11 And of whom <4310 miy > hast thou been afraid <1672 da>ag >

and thou fearest <3372 yare> > me not?

12 I will declare <5046 nagad > thy righteousness <6666

profit <3276 ya<al > thee.

13. When thou criest <2199 za<aq >, let thy companies deliver

<5337 natsal > thee; but the wind <7307 ruwach > shall carry

<5375 nasa> > them all <3605 kol > away; vanity <1892 hebel >

shall take <3947 laqach > [them]: but he that putteth his trust

<2620 chacah > in me shall possess <5157 nachal > the land <0776

take <7311 ruwm > up the stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > out of

the way <1870 derek > of my people <5971 <am >.

15 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the high <7311 ruwm

eternity <5703 <ad >, whose name <8034 shem > [is] Holy <6918

holy <6918 qadowsh > [place], with him also [that is] of a

contrite <1793 dakka> > and humble <8217 shaphal > spirit <7307

the humble <8217 shaphal >, and to revive <2421 chayah > the

heart <3820 leb > of the contrite <1792 daka> > ones.

16 For I will not contend <7378 riyb > for ever <5769 <owlam >,

neither <3808 lo> > will I be always <5331 netsach > wroth <7107

qatsaph >: for the spirit <7307 ruwach > should fail <5848

<ataph > before <6440 paniym > me, and the souls <5397 n@shamah

17. For the iniquity <5771 <avon > of his covetousness <1215

betsa< > was I wroth <7107 qatsaph >, and smote <5221 nakah >

him: I hid <5641 cathar > me, and was wroth <7107 qatsaph >, and

he went <3212 yalak > on frowardly <7726 showbab > in the way

<1870 derek > of his heart <3820 leb >.

18 I have seen <7200 ra>ah > his ways <1870 derek >, and will

heal <7495 rapha> > him: I will lead <5148 nachah > him also,

and restore <7999 shalam > comforts <5150 nichuwm > unto him and

to his mourners <57>.

19 I create <1254 bara> > the fruit <5108 nowb > of the lips

<8193 saphah >; Peace <7965 shalowm >, peace <7965 shalowm > to

[him that is] far <7350 rachowq > off, and to [him that is] near

<7138 qarowb >, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >;

and I will heal <7495 rapha> > him.

20 But the wicked <7563 rasha< > [are] like the troubled <1644

<7516 rephesh > and dirt <2916 tiyt >.

21 [There is] no <0369 >ayin > peace <7965 shalowm >, saith

<0559 >amar > my God <0430 >elohiym >, to the wicked <7563

rasha< >.

Isaiah 58

1. Cry <7121 qara> > aloud <1627 garown >, spare <2820 chasak >

not, lift <7311 ruwm > up thy voice <6963 qowl > like a trumpet

their transgression <6588 pesha< >, and the house <1004 bayith >

of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > their sins <2403 chatta>ah >.

2 Yet they seek <1875 darash > me daily <3117 yowm >, and

delight <2654 chaphets > to know <1847 da<ath > my ways <1870

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, and forsook <5800 <azab > not

the ordinance <4941 mishpat > of their God <0430 >elohiym >:

they ask <7592 sha>al > of me the ordinances <4941 mishpat > of

justice <6664 tsedeq >; they take delight <2654 chaphets > in

approaching <7132 q@rabah > to God <0430 >elohiym >.

3. Wherefore <4100 mah > have we fasted <6684 tsuwm >, [say

they], and thou seest <7200 ra>ah > not? [wherefore] have we

afflicted <6031 <anah > our soul <5315 nephesh >, and thou

with the fist <0106 >egroph > of wickedness <7562 resha< >: ye

to make your voice <6963 qowl > to be heard <8085 shama< > on

high <4791 marowm >.

5 Is it such <2088 zeh > a fast <6685 tsowm > that I have

chosen <0977 bachar >? a day <3117 yowm > for a man <0120 >adam

bow <3721 kaphaph > down his head <7218 ro>sh > as a bulrush

6 [Is] not this <2088 zeh > the fast <6685 tsowm > that I have

chosen <0977 bachar >? to loose <6605 pathach > the bands <2784

chartsubbah > of wickedness <7562 resha< >, to undo <5425 nathar

oppressed <7533 ratsats > go <7971 shalach > free <2670

chophshiy >, and that ye break <5423 nathaq > every <3605 kol >

yoke <4133 mowtah >?

7 [Is it] not to deal <6536 parac > thy bread <3899 lechem > to

the hungry <7456 ra<eb >, and that thou bring <0935 bow> > the

poor <6041 <aniy > that are cast <4788 maruwd > out to thy house

naked <6174 <arowm >, that thou cover <3680 kacah > him; and

that thou hide <5956 <alam > not thyself from thine own flesh

<1320 basar >?

8. Then <0227 >az > shall thy light <0216 >owr > break <1234

baqa< > forth as the morning <7837 shachar >, and thine health

<0724 >aruwkah > shall spring <6779 tsamach > forth speedily

<1980 halak > before <6440 paniym > thee; the glory <3519 kabowd

9 Then <0227 >az > shalt thou call <7121 qara> >, and the LORD

10 And [if] thou draw <6329 puwq > out thy soul <5315 nephesh >

to the hungry <7456 ra<eb >, and satisfy <7646 saba< > the

afflicted <6031 <anah > soul <5315 nephesh >; then shall thy

choshek >, and thy darkness <0653 >aphelah > [be] as the noonday

<6672 tsohar >:

11 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall guide <5148 nachah > thee

continually <8548 tamiyd >, and satisfy <7646 saba< > thy soul

<5315 nephesh > in drought <6710 tsachtsachah >, and make fat

<2502 chalats > thy bones <6106 <etsem >: and thou shalt be like

a watered <7302 raveh > garden <1588 gan >, and like a spring

12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build <1129 banah >

the old <5769 <owlam > waste <2723 chorbah > places: thou shalt

raise <6965 quwm > up the foundations <4146 mowcadah > of many

generations <1755 dowr >; and thou shalt be called <7121 qara> >,

The repairer <1443 gadar > of the breach <6556 perets >, The

restorer <7725 shuwb > of paths <5410 nathiyb > to dwell <3427

13. If <0518 >im > thou turn <7725 shuwb > away thy foot <7272

Isaiah 59

1. Behold <2005 hen >, the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > hand <3027

your sins <2403 chatta>ah > have hid <5641 cathar > [his] face

3 For your hands <3709 kaph > are defiled <1351 ga>al > with

blood <1818 dam >, and your fingers <0676 >etsba< > with

iniquity <5771 <avon >; your lips <8193 saphah > have spoken

conceive <2029 harah > mischief <5999 <amal >, and bring <3205

5 They hatch <1234 baqa< > cockatrice <6848 tsepha< >' eggs

6 Their webs <6980 quwr > shall not become <1961 hayah >

garments <0899 beged >, neither <3808 lo> > shall they cover

<3680 kacah > themselves with their works <4639 ma<aseh >: their

7 Their feet <7272 regel > run <7323 ruwts > to evil <7451 ra<

innocent <5355 naqiy > blood <1818 dam >: their thoughts <4284

8 The way <1870 derek > of peace <7965 shalowm > they know

9. Therefore is judgment <4941 mishpat > far <7368 rachaq >

from us, neither <3808 lo> > doth justice <6666 ts@daqah >

overtake <5381 nasag > us: we wait <6960 qavah > for light <0216

brightness <5054 n@gohah >, [but] we walk <1980 halak > in

darkness <0653 >aphelah >.

10 We grope <1659 gashash > for the wall <7023 qiyr > like the

11 We roar <1993 hamah > all <3605 kol > like bears <1677 dob >,

<0369 >ayin >; for salvation <3444 y@shuw<ah >, [but] it is far

<7368 rachaq > off from us.

12 For our transgressions <6588 pesha< > are multiplied <7231

13 In transgressing <6586 pasha< > and lying <3584 kachash >

against the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and departing <5253 nacag >

away from our God <0430 >elohiym >, speaking <1696 dabar >

oppression <6233 <osheq > and revolt <5627 carah >, conceiving

<2030 hareh > and uttering <1897 hagah > from the heart <3820

14 And judgment <4941 mishpat > is turned <5253 nacag > away

backward <0268 >achowr >, and justice <6666 ts@daqah > standeth

<5975 <amad > afar <7350 rachowq > off: for truth <0571 >emeth >

is fallen <3782 kashal > in the street <7339 r@chob >, and

equity <5229 n@kochah > cannot enter <0935 bow> >.

15 Yea, truth <0571 >emeth > faileth <5737 <adar >; and he

[that] departeth <5493 cuwr > from evil <7451 ra< > maketh

himself a prey <7997 shalal >: and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saw

<7200 ra>ah > [it], and it displeased him that [there was] no

<0369 >ayin > judgment <4941 mishpat >.

16. And he saw <7200 ra>ah > that [there was] no <0369 >ayin >

man <0376 >iysh >, and wondered <8074 shamem > that [there was]

no <0369 >ayin > intercessor <6293 paga< >: therefore his arm

<2220 z@rowa< > brought <3467 yasha< > salvation <3467 yasha< >

unto him; and his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, it sustained

<5564 camak > him.

17 For he put <3847 labash > on righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >

as a breastplate <8302 shiryown >, and an helmet <3553 kowba< >

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, mighty <7227 rab > to save <3467

yasha< >.

2 Wherefore <4069 madduwa< > [art thou] red <0122 >adom > in

thine apparel <3830 l@buwsh >, and thy garments <0899 beged >

like him that treadeth <1869 darak > in the winefat <1660 gath >?

3 I have trodden <1869 darak > the winepress <6333 puwrah >

alone <0905 bad >; and of the people <5971 <am > [there was]

none with me: for I will tread <1869 darak > them in mine anger

<0639 >aph >, and trample <7429 ramac > them in my fury <2534

chemah >; and their blood <5332 Netsach > shall be sprinkled

<5137 nazah > upon my garments <0899 beged >, and I will stain

<1351 ga>al > all <3605 kol > my raiment <4403 malbuwsh >.

4 For the day <3117 yowm > of vengeance <5359 naqam > [is] in

mine heart <3820 leb >, and the year <8141 shaneh > of my

redeemed <1350 ga>al > is come <0935 bow> >.

5 And I looked <5027 nabat >, and [there was] none <0369 >ayin

[there was] none <0369 >ayin > to uphold <5564 camak >:

therefore mine own arm <2220 z@rowa< > brought <3467 yasha< >

salvation <3467 yasha< > unto me; and my fury <2534 chemah >, it

upheld <5564 camak > me.

6 And I will tread <0947 buwc > down the people <5971 <am > in

mine anger <0639 >aph >, and make them drunk <7937 shakar > in

my fury <2534 chemah >, and I will bring <3381 yarad > down

their strength <5332 Netsach > to the earth <0776 >erets >.

7. I will mention <2142 zakar > the lovingkindnesses <2617

checed > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, [and] the praises <8416

t@hillah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, according <5921 <al > to

all <3605 kol > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath bestowed

<1580 gamal > on us, and the great <7227 rab > goodness <2898

tuwb > toward the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el

according to his mercies <7356 racham >, and according to the

multitude <7230 rob > of his lovingkindnesses <2617 checed >.

8 For he said <0559 >amar >, Surely <0389 >ak > they [are] my

people <5971 <am >, children <1121 ben > [that] will not lie

<8266 shaqar >: so he was their Saviour <3467 yasha< >.

9 In all <3605 kol > their affliction <6869 tsarah > he was

afflicted <6862 tsar >, and the angel <4397 mal>ak > of his

presence <6440 paniym > saved <3467 yasha< > them: in his love

<0160 >ahabah > and in his pity <2551 chemlah > he redeemed

<1350 ga>al > them; and he bare <5190 natal > them, and carried

<5375 nasa> > them all <3605 kol > the days <3117 yowm > of old

<5769 <owlam >.

10 But they rebelled <4784 marah >, and vexed <6087 <atsab >

his holy <6944 qodesh > Spirit <7307 ruwach >: therefore he was

turned <2015 haphak > to be their enemy <0341 >oyeb >, [and] he

fought <3898 lacham > against them.

11 Then he remembered <2142 zakar > the days <3117 yowm > of

old <5769 <owlam >, Moses <4872 Mosheh >, [and] his people <5971

<am >, [saying], Where <0346 >ayeh > [is] he that brought <5927

<alah > them up out of the sea <3220 yam > with the shepherd

<7462 ra<ah > of his flock <6629 tso>n >? where <0346 >ayeh >

[is] he that put <7760 suwm > his holy <6944 qodesh > Spirit

<7307 ruwach > within <7130 qereb > him?

12 That led <3212 yalak > [them] by the right <3225 yamiyn >

hand <3225 yamiyn > of Moses <4872 Mosheh > with his glorious

<8597 tiph>arah > arm <2220 z@rowa< >, dividing <1234 baqa< >

the water <4325 mayim > before <6440 paniym > them, to make

<6213 <asah > himself an everlasting <5769 <owlam > name <8034

shem >?

13 That led <3212 yalak > them through the deep <8415 t@howm >,

as an horse <5483 cuwc > in the wilderness <4057 midbar >,

[that] they should not stumble <3782 kashal >?

14 As a beast <0929 b@hemah > goeth <3318 yatsa> > down <3381

15. Look <5027 nabat > down from heaven <8064 shamayim >, and

behold <7200 ra>ah > from the habitation <2073 z@buwl > of thy

holiness <6944 qodesh > and of thy glory <8597 tiph>arah >:

16 Doubtless <3588 kiy > thou [art] our father <1>, though

<3588 kiy > Abraham <85> be ignorant of us, and Israel <3478

name <8034 shem > [is] from everlasting <5769 <owlam >.

17 O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, why <4100 mah > hast thou made us to

err <8582 ta<ah > from thy ways <1870 derek >, [and] hardened

<4616 ma<an >, the tribes <7626 shebet > of thine inheritance

<5159 nachalah >.

18 The people <5971 <am > of thy holiness <6944 qodesh > have

possessed <3423 yarash > [it] but a little <4705 mits<ar > while

<4705 mits<ar >: our adversaries <6862 tsar > have trodden <0947

19 We are [thine]: thou never barest <4910 mashal > rule <4910

name <8034 shem >.

3 When thou didst <6213 <asah > terrible <3372 yare> > things

4 For since the beginning <5769 <owlam > of the world <5769

5 Thou meetest <6293 paga< > him that rejoiceth <7797 suws >

behold <2005 hen >, thou art wroth <7107 qatsaph >; for we have

sinned <2398 chata> >: in those <1992 hem > is continuance <5769

6. But we are all <3605 kol > as an unclean <2931 tame> >

taken <5375 nasa> > us away.

7 And [there is] none <0369 >ayin > that calleth <7121 qara> >

upon thy name <8034 shem >, that stirreth <5782 <uwr > up

himself to take <2388 chazaq > hold <2388 chazaq > of thee: for

thou hast hid <5641 cathar > thy face <6440 paniym > from us,

and hast consumed <4127 muwg > us, because <3027 yad > of our

iniquities <5771 <avon >.

8 But now <6258 <attah >, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thou [art]

our father <1>; we [are] the clay <2563 chomer >, and thou our

10 Thy holy <6944 qodesh > cities <5892 <iyr > are a wilderness

will recompense <7999 shalam >, even recompense into <5921 <al >

2 For all <3605 kol > those <0428 >el-leh > [things] hath mine

hand <3027 yad > made <6213 <asah >, and all <3605 kol > those

<0428 >el-leh > [things] have been <1961 hayah >, saith <5002

n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: but to this <2088 zeh > [man]

will I look <5027 nabat >, [even] to [him that is] poor <6041

<aniy > and of a contrite <5223 nakeh > spirit <7307 ruwach >,

and trembleth <2730 chared > at <5921 <al > my word <1697 dabar

3 He that killeth <7819 shachat > an ox <7794 showr > [is as

if] he slew <5221 nakah > a man <0376 >iysh >; he that

sacrificeth <2076 zabach > a lamb <7716 seh >, [as if] he cut

off a dog's <3611 keleb > neck <6202 <araph >; he that offereth

<5927 <alah > an oblation <4503 minchah >, [as if he offered

<5927 <alah >] swine's <2386 chaziyr > blood <1818 dam >; he

that burneth <2142 zakar > incense <3828 l@bownah >, [as if] he

blessed <1288 barak > an idol <0205 >aven >. Yea <1571 gam >,

they have chosen <0977 bachar > their own ways <1870 derek >,

and their soul <5315 nephesh > delighteth <2654 chaphets > in

their abominations <8251 shiqquwts >.

4 I also <1571 gam > will choose <0977 bachar > their delusions

<8586 ta<aluwl >, and will bring <0935 bow> > their fears <4035

m@guwrah > upon them; because <3282 ya<an > when I called <7121

qara> >, none <0369 >ayin > did answer <6030 <anah >; when I

spake <1696 dabar >, they did not hear <8085 shama< >: but they

did <6213 <asah > evil <7451 ra< > before mine eyes <5869 <ayin

delighted <2654 chaphets > not.

5. Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, ye that tremble <2730 chared > at <0413 >el > his

word <1697 dabar >; Your brethren <0251 >ach > that hated <8130

sane> > you, that cast <5077 nadah > you out for my name's <8034

shem > sake <4616 ma<an >, said <0559 >amar >, Let the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > be glorified <3513 kabad >: but he shall appear

<7200 ra>ah > to your joy <8057 simchah >, and they shall be

ashamed <0954 buwsh >.

6 A voice <6963 qowl > of noise <7588 sha>own > from the city

<5892 <iyr >, a voice <6963 qowl > from the temple <1964 heykal

rendereth <7999 shalam > recompence <1576 g@muwl > to his

enemies <0341 >oyeb >.

7 Before <2962 terem > she travailed <2342 chuwl >, she brought

<3205 yalad > forth <3205 yalad >; before <2962 terem > her pain

<2256 chebel > came <0935 bow> >, she was delivered <4422 malat

8 Who <4310 miy > hath heard <8085 shama< > such <2063 zo>th >

a thing? who <0834 >aher > hath seen <7200 ra>ah > such <0428

bring <2342 chuwl > forth <2342 chuwl > in one <0259 >echad >

day <3117 yowm >? [or] shall a nation <1471 gowy > be born <3205

yalad > at once <6471 pa<am >? for as soon <1571 gam > as Zion

<6726 Tsiyown > travailed <2342 chuwl >, she brought <3205 yalad

9 Shall I bring <7665 shabar > to the birth <7665 shabar >, and

not cause to bring <3205 yalad > forth <3205 yalad >? saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: shall I cause to bring

<3205 yalad > forth <3205 yalad >, and shut <6113 <atsar > [the

womb]? saith <0559 >amar > thy God <0430 >elohiym >.

10 Rejoice <8055 samach > ye with Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim

love <0157 >ahab > her: rejoice <7797 suws > for joy <4885

masows > with her, all <3605 kol > ye that mourn <56> for her:

11 That ye may suck <3243 yanaq >, and be satisfied <7646 saba<

tanchuwm >; that ye may milk <4711 matsats > out, and be

delighted <6026 <anag > with the abundance <2123 ziyz > of her

glory <3519 kabowd >.

12 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >, Behold <2005 hen >, I will extend <5186 natah > peace

<7965 shalowm > to her like a river <5104 nahar >, and the glory

<3519 kabowd > of the Gentiles <1471 gowy > like a flowing <7857

shataph > stream <5158 nachal >: then shall ye suck <3243 yanaq

and be dandled <8173 sha<a< > upon [her] knees <1290 berek >.

13 As one <0376 >iysh > whom <0834 >aher > his mother <0517 >em

nacham > you; and ye shall be comforted <5162 nacham > in

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.

14 And when ye see <7200 ra>ah > [this], your heart <3820 leb >

shall rejoice <7797 suws >, and your bones <6106 <etsem > shall

flourish <6524 parach > like an herb <1877 deshe> >: and the

hand <3027 yad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall be known

<3045 yada< > toward <0854 >eth > his servants <5650 <ebed >,

and [his] indignation <2194 za<am > toward <0854 >eth > his

enemies <0341 >oyeb >.

15. For, behold <2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will

come <0935 bow> > with fire <0784 >esh >, and with his chariots

<4818 merkabah > like a whirlwind <5492 cuwphah >, to render

<7725 shuwb > his anger <0639 >aph > with fury <2534 chemah >,

and his rebuke <1606 g@<arah > with flames <3851 lahab > of fire

<0784 >esh >.

16 For by fire <0784 >esh > and by his sword <2719 chereb >

will the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > plead <8199 shaphat > with all

<3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar >: and the slain <2491 chalal > of

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall be many <7231 rabab >.

17 They that sanctify <6942 qadash > themselves, and purify

<2891 taher > themselves in the gardens <1593 gannah > behind

<0310 >achar > one <0259 >echad > [tree] in the midst <8432

tavek >, eating <0398 >akal > swine's <2386 chaziyr > flesh

<1320 basar >, and the abomination <8263 sheqets >, and the

mouse <5909 <akbar >, shall be consumed <5486 cuwph > together

<3162 yachad >, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

18 For I [know] their works <4639 ma<aseh > and their thoughts

<4284 machashabah >: it shall come <0935 bow> >, that I will

gather <6908 qabats > all <3605 kol > nations <1471 gowy > and

tongues <3956 lashown >; and they shall come <0935 bow> >, and

see <7200 ra>ah > my glory <3519 kabowd >.

19 And I will set <7760 suwm > a sign <0226 >owth > among them,

and I will send <7971 shalach > those <1992 hem > that escape

<6412 paliyt > of them unto the nations <1471 gowy >, [to]

Tarshish <8659 Tarshiysh >, Pul <6322 Puwl >, and Lud <3865 Luwd

ra>ah > my glory <3519 kabowd >; and they shall declare <5046

nagad > my glory <3519 kabowd > among the Gentiles <1471 gowy >.

20 And they shall bring <0935 bow> > all <3605 kol > your

brethren <0251 >ach > [for] an offering <4503 minchah > unto the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > out of all <3605 kol > nations <1471 gowy >

upon horses <5483 cuwc >, and in chariots <7393 rekeb >, and in

litters <6632 tsab >, and upon mules <6505 pered >, and upon

swift <3753 karkarah > beasts <3753 karkarah >, to my holy <6944

qodesh > mountain <2022 har > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >,

saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, as the children

<1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > bring <0935 bow> > an

offering <4503 minchah > in a clean <2889 tahowr > vessel <3627

k@liy > into the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

21 And I will also <1571 gam > take <3947 laqach > of them for

priests <3548 kohen > [and] for Levites <3881 Leviyiy >, saith

<0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

22 For as the new <2319 chadash > heavens <8064 shamayim > and

the new <2319 chadash > earth <0776 >erets >, which <0834 >aher

so <3651 ken > shall your seed <2233 zera< > and your name <8034

shem > remain <5975 <amad >.

23 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, [that] from one new

<2320 chodesh > moon <2320 chodesh > to another, and from one

sabbath <7676 shabbath > to another, shall all <3605 kol > flesh

<1320 basar > come <0935 bow> > to worship <7812 shachah >

before <6440 paniym > me, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >.

24 And they shall go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >, and

look <7200 ra>ah > upon the carcases <6297 peger > of the men

<0582 >enowsh > that have transgressed <6586 pasha< > against me:

for their worm <8438 towla< > shall not die <4191 muwth >,

neither <3808 lo> > shall their fire <0784 >esh > be quenched

<3518 kabah >; and they shall be an abhorring <1860 d@ra>own >

unto all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar >.
