: 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<

tariy > sores <4347 makkah > : they have not been closed <2115
zuwr > , neither <3808 lo> > bound <2280 chabash > up ,
neither <3808 lo> > mollified <7401 rakak > with ointment <8081
shemen > .
: 7 Your country <0776 >erets > [ is ] desolate <8077
sh@mamah > , your cities <5892 <iyr > [ are ] burned <8313
saraph > with fire <0784 >esh > : your land <0127 >adamah > ,
strangers <2114 zuwr > devour <0398 >akal > it in your presence
<5048 neged > , and [ it is ] desolate <8077 sh@mamah > , as
overthrown <4114 mahpekah > by strangers <2114 zuwr > .
: 8 And the daughter <1323 bath > of Zion <6726 Tsiyown > is
left <3498 yathar > as a cottage <5521 cukkah > in a vineyard
<3754 kerem > , as a lodge <4412 m@luwnah > in a garden of
cucumbers <4750 miqshah > , as a besieged <5341 natsar > city
<5892 <iyr > .
: 9 Except <3884 luwle> > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts
<6635 tsaba> > had left <3498 yathar > unto us a very <4592
m@<at > small <4592 m@<at > remnant <8300 sariyd > , we should
have been <1961 hayah > as Sodom <5467 C@dom > , [ and ] we
should have been like <1819 damah > unto Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah
> .
: 10 . Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > , ye rulers <7101 qatsiyn > of Sodom <5467
C@dom > ; give ear <0238 >azan > unto the law <8451 towrah > of
our God <0430 >elohiym > , ye people <5971 <am > of Gomorrah
<6017 <Amorah > .
: 11 To what <4100 mah > purpose [ is ] the multitude <7230
rob > of your sacrifices <2077 zebach > unto me ? saith <0559
>amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : I am full <7646 saba< > of
the burnt <5930 <olah > offerings of rams <0352 >ayil > , and
the fat <2459 cheleb > of fed <4806 m@riy> > beasts <4806 m@riy>

of bullocks <6499 par > , or of lambs <3532 kebes > , or of he
goats <6260 <attuwd > .
: 12 When <3588 kiy > ye come <0935 bow> > to appear <7200
ra>ah > before <6440 paniym > me , who <4310 miy > hath
required <1245 baqash > this <2063 zo>th > at your hand <3027
yad > , to tread <7429 ramac > my courts <2691 chatser > ?
: 13 Bring <0935 bow> > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > vain
<7723 shav> > oblations <4503 minchah > ; incense <7004
q@toreth > is an abomination <8441 tow<ebah > unto me ; the new
<2320 chodesh > moons <2320 chodesh > and sabbaths <7676
shabbath > , the calling <7121 qara> > of assemblies <4744
miqra> > , I cannot away with ; [ it is ] iniquity <0205
>aven > , even the solemn <2282 chag > meeting <6116 <atsarah >
.
: 14 Your new <2320 chodesh > moons <2320 chodesh > and your
appointed <4150 mow<ed > feasts my soul <5315 nephesh > hateth
<8130 sane> > : they are a trouble <2960 torach > unto me ; I
am weary <3811 la>ah > to bear <5375 nasa> > [ them ] .
: 15 And when ye spread <6566 paras > forth your hands <3709
kaph > , I will hide <5956 <alam > mine eyes <5869 <ayin > from
you : yea <1571 gam > , when <3588 kiy > ye make many <7235
rabah > prayers <8605 t@phillah > , I will not hear <8085
shama< > : your hands <3027 yad > are full <4390 male> > of
blood <1818 dam > .
: 16 . Wash <7364 rachats > you , make you clean <2135 zakah
> ; put <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the evil <7455 roa< > of
your doings <4611 ma<alal > from before <5048 neged > mine eyes
<5869 <ayin > ; cease <2308 chadal > to do evil <7489 ra<a< > ;
: 17 Learn <3925 lamad > to do well <3190 yatab > ; seek <1875
darash > judgment <4941 mishpat > , relieve <0833 >ashar > the
oppressed <2541 chamowts > , judge <8199 shaphat > the
fatherless <3490 yathowm > , plead <7378 riyb > for the widow
<0490 >almanah > .
: 18 Come <3212 yalak > now <4994 na> > , and let us reason
<3198 yakach > together , saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068
Y@hovah > : though <0518 >im > your sins <2399 chet> > be as
scarlet <8144 shaniy > , they shall be as white <3835 laban >
as snow <7950 sheleg > ; though <0518 >im > they be red <0119
>adam > like <1819 damah > crimson <8438 towla< > , they shall
be as wool <6785 tsemer > .
: 19 If <0518 >im > ye be willing <14> and obedient <8085
shama< > , ye shall eat <0398 >akal > the good <2898 tuwb > of
the land <0776 >erets > :
: 20 But if <0518 >im > ye refuse <3985 ma>en > and rebel <4784
marah > , ye shall be devoured <0398 >akal > with the sword
<2719 chereb > : for the mouth <6310 peh > of the LORD <3068
Y@hovah > hath spoken <1696 dabar > [ it ] .
: 21 . How <0349 >eyk > is the faithful <0539 >aman > city
<7151 qiryah > become <1961 hayah > an harlot <2181 zanah > !
it was full <4392 male> > of judgment <4941 mishpat > ;
righteousness <6664 tsedeq > lodged <3885 luwn > in it ; but
now <6258 <attah > murderers <7523 ratsach > .
: 22 Thy silver <3701 keceph > is become <1961 hayah > dross
<5509 ciyg > , thy wine <5435 cobe> > mixed <4107 mahal > with
water <4325 mayim > :
: 23 Thy princes <8269 sar > [ are ] rebellious <5637 carar >
, and companions <2270 chaber > of thieves <1590 gannab > :
every <3605 kol > one loveth <0157 >ahab > gifts <7810 shachad >
, and followeth <7291 radaph > after rewards <8021 shalmon > :
they judge <8199 shaphat > not the fatherless <3490 yathowm > ,
neither <3808 lo> > doth the cause <7379 riyb > of the widow
<0490 >almanah > come <0935 bow> > unto them .
: 24 Therefore <3651 ken > saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0113
>adown > , the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,
the mighty <46> One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , Ah <1945 howy

tsar > , and avenge <5358 naqam > me of mine enemies <0341
>oyeb > :
: 25 And I will turn <7725 shuwb > my hand <3027 yad > upon
thee , and purely <1252 bor > purge <6884 tsaraph > away thy
dross <5509 ciyg > , and take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr >
all <3605 kol > thy tin <0913 b@diyl > :
: 26 And I will restore <7725 shuwb > thy judges <8199 shaphat

ya<ats > as at the beginning <8462 t@chillah > : afterward thou
shalt be called <7121 qara> > , The city <5892 <iyr > of
righteousness <6664 tsedeq > , the faithful <0539 >aman > city
<7151 qiryah > .
: 27 Zion <6726 Tsiyown > shall be redeemed <6299 padah > with
judgment <4941 mishpat > , and her converts <7725 shuwb > with
righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > .
: 28 And the destruction <7667 sheber > of the transgressors
<6586 pasha< > and of the sinners <2400 chatta> > [ shall be ]
together <3162 yachad > , and they that forsake <5800 <azab >
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall be consumed <3615 kalah > .
: 29 For they shall be ashamed <0954 buwsh > of the oaks <0352
>ayil > which <0834 >aher > ye have desired <2530 chamad > ,
and ye shall be confounded <2659 chapher > for the gardens <1593
gannah > that ye have chosen <0977 bachar > .
: 30 For ye shall be as an oak <0424 >elah > whose leaf <5929
<aleh > fadeth <5034 nabel > , and as a garden <1593 gannah >
that hath no <0369 >ayin > water <4325 mayim > .
: 31 And the strong <2634 chacon > shall be as tow <5296
n@<oreth > , and the maker <6467 po<al > of it as a spark <5213
niytsowts > , and they shall both <8147 sh@nayim > burn <1197
ba<ar > 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

be established <3559 kuwn > in the top <7218 ro>sh > of the
mountains <2022 har > , and shall be exalted <5375 nasa> >
above the hills <1389 gib<ah > ; and all <3605 kol > nations
<1471 gowy > shall flow <5102 nahar > unto it .
: 3 And many <7227 rab > people <5971 <am > shall go <1980
halak > and say <0559 >amar > , Come <3212 yalak > ye , and
let us go <5927 <alah > up to the mountain <2022 har > of the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , to the house <1004 bayith > of the God

: 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

<3212 yalak > ye , and let us walk <3212 yalak > in the light
<0216 >owr > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .
: 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 <6924 qedem > , and [ are ] soothsayers <6049 <anan >
like the Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy > , and they please <5606
caphaq > themselves in the children <3206 yeled > of strangers
<5237 nokriy > .

: Isaiah 3
: 1 . For , behold <2009 hinneh > , the Lord <0113 >adown > ,
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > , doth take

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

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

: Isaiah 9
: 1 . Nevertheless <3588 kiy > the dimness <4155 muw<aph > [

of his burden <5448 cobel > , and the staff <4294 matteh > of
his shoulder <7926 sh@kem > , the rod <7626 shebet > of his

: 2 Behold <2009 hinneh > , the Lord <0136 >Adonay > hath a
mighty <2389 chazaq > and strong <0533 >ammiyts > one , [
which ] as a tempest <2230 zerem > of hail <1259 barad > [ 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

: 14 . Wherefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< > the word

: 15 Because <3588 kiy > ye have said <0559 >amar > , We have
made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with death <4194

<2374 chozeh > ; when <3588 kiy > the overflowing <7857 shataph

shall not come <0935 bow> > unto us : for we have made <7760

under 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

y@cuwdah > a stone <68> , a tried <0976 bochan > stone <68> ,
a precious <3368 yaqar > corner <6438 pinnah > [ stone ] , a
sure <3245 yacad > foundation <4143 muwcad > : he that believeth
<0539 >aman > 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

<2380 chazuwth > with hell <7585 sh@>owl > shall not stand <6965

scourge <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 > over <5674 <abar > , by day <3117 yowm > and by
night <3915 layil > : and it shall be a vexation <2113 z@va<ah >
only <7535 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

<5647 <abad > to pass <5674 <abar > his act <5556 col<am > ,
his strange <5237 nokriy > act <5556 col<am > .
: 22 Now <6258 <attah > therefore be ye not mockers <3887 luwts

<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

abroad <6327 puwts > the fitches <7100 qetsach > , and scatter
<2236 zaraq > the cummin <3646 kammon > , and cast <7760 suwm >

appointed <5567 caman > barley <8184 s@<orah > and the rie <3698

: 26 For his God <0430 >elohiym > doth instruct <3256 yacar >
him to discretion <4941 mishpat > , [ and ] doth teach <3384

: 27 For the fitches <7100 qetsach > are not threshed <1758

<1077 bal > is a cart <5699 <agalah > wheel <0212 >owphan >
turned <5437 cabab > about upon the cummin <3646 kammon > ; but
the 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

<6635 tsaba> > , [ which ] is wonderful <6381 pala> > in

working <8454 tuwshiyah > .
: 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

: 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 <1754 duwr > about , and will lay siege <6696 tsuwr >
against <5921 <al > thee with a mount <4674 mutstsab > , and I
will raise <6965 quwm > forts <4694 m@tsuwrah > against <5921

: 4 And thou shalt be brought <8213 shaphel > down <8213
shaphel > , [ and ] shalt speak <1696 dabar > out of the
ground <0776 >erets > , and thy speech <0565 >imrah > shall be
low <7817 shachach > out of the dust <6083 <aphar > , and thy
voice <6963 qowl > shall be , as of one that hath a familiar
spirit <0178 >owb > , out of the ground <0776 >erets > , and
thy speech <0565 >imrah > shall whisper <6850 tsaphaph > out of
the dust <6083 <aphar > .
: 5 Moreover the multitude <1995 hamown > of thy strangers
<2114 zuwr > shall be like small <1851 daq > dust <80> , and
the multitude <1995 hamown > of the terrible <6184 <ariyts >
ones [ shall be ] as chaff <4671 mots > that passeth <5674

suddenly <6597 pith>owm > .
: 6 Thou shalt be visited <6485 paqad > of the LORD <3068
Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > with thunder <7482 ra<am > ,
and with earthquake <7494 ra<ash > , and great <1419 gadowl >
noise <6963 qowl > , with storm <5492 cuwphah > and tempest
<5591 ca<ar > , and the flame <3851 lahab > of devouring <0398

: 7 And the multitude <1995 hamown > of all <3605 kol > the
nations <1471 gowy > that fight <6633 tsaba> > against <5921 <al

that distress <6693 tsuwq > her , shall be as a dream <2472
chalowm > of a night <3915 layil > vision <2377 chazown > .
: 8 It shall even be as when <0834 >aher > an hungry <7456
ra<eb > [ man ] dreameth <2492 chalam > , and , behold <2009
hinneh > , he eateth <0398 >akal > ; but he awaketh <6974

or as when <0834 >aher > a thirsty <6771 tsame> > man dreameth

<2009 hinneh > , [ he is ] faint <5889 <ayeph > , and his

<2022 har > Zion <6726 Tsiyown > .
: 9 . Stay <4102 mahahh > yourselves , and wonder <8539

they are drunken <7937 shakar > , but not with wine <3196

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

<7218 ro>sh > , the seers <2374 chozeh > hath he covered <3680

: 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 > [ men ] deliver <5414 nathan > to one that is
learned , saying <0559 >amar > , Read <7121 qara> > this <2088

I cannot ; for it [ is ] sealed <2856 chatham > :

saith <0559 >amar > , I am not learned .
: 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
saphah > do honour <3513 kabad > me , but have removed <7368
rachaq > their heart <3820 leb > far <7368 rachaq > from me ,
and their fear <3374 yir>ah > toward <0854 >eth > me is taught
<3925 lamad > by the precept <4687 mitsvah > of men <0582

: 14 Therefore <3651 ken > , behold <2005 hen > , I will
proceed <3254 yacaph > to do a marvellous <6381 pala> > work
<6381 pala> > among this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > , [
even ] a marvellous <6381 pala> > work <6381 pala> > and a
wonder <6382 pele> > : for 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

<3045 yada< > us ?
: 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 <4592 m@<at > while , and Lebanon <3844 L@banown > shall
be 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

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

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

: 22 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , who <0834 >aher > redeemed <6299

<3206 yeled > , the work <4639 ma<aseh > of mine hands <3027

[ and ] when thou shalt make an end <5239 nalah > to deal
