tinkling ornaments
[about their feet,]

of the earth [shall be]
excellent and comely for
them that are escaped
of Israel.

And it shall come to pass,
[that he that is]
left in
Zion, and [he that]
remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy,
[even]
every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:

Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst
thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory [shall be]
a defence.

{Isaiah 5:1}
Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved
touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard
in a
very fruitful
hill:
{Isaiah 5:2}
And
he
fenced it,
and gathered out the stones thereof,
and planted
it with the choicest vine,
and built a tower in
the midst of
it, and
also
made a winepress
therein: and he looked that it should
bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
{Isaiah 5:3}
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray
you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
{Isaiah 5:4}
What could have been done more
to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked
that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?
{Isaiah 5:5}
And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will
take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; [and]
break down
the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down:
{Isaiah 5:6}
And I will lay it
waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up
briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no
rain upon it.
{Isaiah 5:7}

[is]
the
house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked
for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a
cry.
{Isaiah 5:8}
Woe unto them that join house to house,
[that] lay field to
field, till
[there be] no place, that
they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth!

houses shall be desolate, even
great and fair, without inhabitant.

[that]
they
may follow strong drink; that continue until night, [till]
wine inflame them!
{Isaiah 5:12}
And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and
wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the LORD,
neither consider the operation of his hands.
{Isaiah 5:13}
Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because
[they
have] no knowledge: and their honourable men
[are]
famished, and their multitude dried up
with thirst.
{Isaiah 5:14}
Therefore hell hath enlarged
herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and
their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend
into it.
{Isaiah 5:15}
And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty
man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
{Isaiah 5:16}
But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that
is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.
{Isaiah 5:17}
Then shall the
lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones
shall strangers eat.
{Isaiah 5:18}
Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords
of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope:
{Isaiah 5:19}
That say, Let
him make speed, [and]
hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the
counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know
[it!]
{Isaiah 5:20}
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put
darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet,
and sweet for bitter!
{Isaiah 5:21}
Woe unto
[them that are] wise in their own
eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
{Isaiah 5:22}
Woe unto
[them that are]
mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong
drink:
{Isaiah 5:23}
Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the
righteousness of the righteous from him!
{Isaiah 5:24}
Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff,
[so]
their
root shall be as
rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust:
because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised
the word of the Holy One of Israel.
{Isaiah 5:25}
Therefore is the anger of
the LORD kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his
hand against them, and hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble,
and their carcases [were]
torn in the midst of the streets. For all
this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is]
stretched out
still.
{Isaiah 5:26}
And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and
will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall
come with speed swiftly:
{Isaiah 5:27}
None shall be weary nor stumble among
them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their
loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:
{Isaiah 5:28}
Whose
arrows [are]
sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses' hoofs shall
be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind:
{Isaiah 5:29}
Their
roaring [shall be]
like a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea,
they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry [it]
away
safe, and none shall deliver [it.]
{Isaiah 5:30}
And in that day they shall
roar against them like the roaring of the sea: and if [one]
look unto
the land, behold darkness [and]
sorrow, and the light is darkened in
the heavens thereof.
{Isaiah 6:1}
In the
year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high
and lifted up, and his train filled
the temple.
{Isaiah 6:2}
Above it stood the seraphims:
each
one had six wings; with twain
he covered his face and with twain
he covered his feet, and with twain
he did fly.
{Isaiah 6:3}
And one cried unto another, and
said,
Holy, holy,
holy, [is]
the LORD of hosts: the
whole earth [is]
full of his glory.
{Isaiah 6:4}
And the posts of the
door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
{Isaiah 6:5}
Then said I, Woe
[is]
me! for I am undone; because I
[am]
a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean
lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
{Isaiah 6:6}
Then
flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a
live coal in his hand, [which]
he had taken with the tongs from
off the altar:
{Isaiah 6:7}
And he
laid [it]
upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and
thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
{Isaiah 6:8}
Also I heard
the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for
us? Then said I, Here [am]
I; send me.
Isaiah 6:9
And
he
said, Go, and tell this people,
Hear ye indeed, but
understand not; and see ye indeed, but
perceive not.
Isaiah 6:10
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears,
and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
{Isaiah 6:11}
Then
said I, Lord, how long? And he answered,
Until the cities be wasted
without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly
desolate,
{Isaiah 6:12}
And the LORD have removed men far away,
and [there be]
a great
forsaking in the midst of the land.
{Isaiah 6:13}
But yet
in it [shall be] a tenth, and
[it]
shall return, and
shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in
them, when they cast [their leaves: so]
the holy seed [shall be]
the
substance thereof.
Isaiah 7:1 And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of
Jotham, the son
of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of
Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could
not prevail against it.
Isaiah 7:1 And it came to pass in the days of
Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son
of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of
Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could
not prevail against it.
Isaiah 7:1 And it came to pass in the days of
Ahaz
the son of
Jotham,
the son of
Uzziah,
king of Judah, that Rezin
the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah,
king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not
prevail against it.
{Isaiah 7:2}
And it was told the
house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his
heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood
are moved with the wind.
{Isaiah 7:3}
Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth
now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear-jashub thy son, at the end of the
conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field;
{Isaiah 7:4}
And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be
fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the
fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
{Isaiah 7:5}
Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil
counsel against thee, saying,
{Isaiah 7:6}
Let us go up against Judah, and vex
it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the
midst of it, [even]
the son of Tabeal:
{Isaiah 7:7}
Thus saith the Lord GOD,
It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass.
{Isaiah 7:8}
For the head
of Syria [is]
Damascus, and the head of Damascus
[is]
Rezin; and within
threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a
people.
{Isaiah 7:9}
And the head of Ephraim
[is] Samaria, and the head of Samaria
[is]
Remaliah's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall
not be established.
{Isaiah 7:10}
Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying,
{Isaiah 7:11}
Ask
thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the
height above.
{Isaiah 7:12}
But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I
tempt the LORD.
{Isaiah 7:13}
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David;
[Is
it] a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?
Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign;
Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and
bear
a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
{Isaiah 7:15}
Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to
refuse the evil, and choose the good.
{Isaiah 7:16}
For before the child shall
know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou
abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.
{Isaiah 7:17}
The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon
thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim
departed from Judah; [even]
the king of Assyria.
{Isaiah 7:18}
And it shall
come to pass in that day, [that]
the LORD shall hiss for the fly that
[is]
in the uttermost part of
the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that
[is]
in the land of Assyria.
{Isaiah 7:19}
And they shall come, and shall rest
all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and
upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.

Lord shave with a razor that is hired, [namely,]
by
them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the
feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
{Isaiah 7:21}
And it shall come to pass in
that day, [that]
a man shall nourish a young cow
and two sheep;

[that]
they shall give
he shall eat butter; for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in
the land.
{Isaiah 7:23}
And it shall come to pass in that day,
[that]
every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a
thousand silverlings, it
shall
[even] be for briers and thorns.
{Isaiah 7:24}
With arrows and with bows shall
[men]
come thither; because all the
land shall become briers and thorns.
{Isaiah 7:25}
And [on]
all hills that
shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear
of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen,
and for
the treading of lesser cattle.
{Isaiah 8:1}
Moreover the LORD said unto me, Take thee a great roll, and
write in it with a mans pen concerning Maher-shalal-hash-baz.
{Isaiah 8:2}
And I took unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and
Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.
{Isaiah 8:3}
And I went unto the prophetess; and she
conceived, and bare a son. Then said the LORD to me, Call his name Maher-er-shalal-hash-baz.
{Isaiah 8:4}
For before the child
shall have knowledge to cry, My father, and my mother, the riches of Damascus
and the spoil of Samaria shall be taken away before the king of Assyria.
{Isaiah 8:5}
The LORD spake also unto me again, saying,
{Isaiah 8:6}
Forasmuch
as
this people refuseth the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice
in Rezin and Remaliah's son;
{Isaiah 8:7}
Now therefore, behold,
the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the river, strong and many,
[even] the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall
come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks:
{Isaiah 8:8}
And he shall pass
through Judah; he shall overflow and go over, he shall reach [even]
to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the
breadth of thy land, O Immanuel.
{Isaiah 8:9}
Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in
pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye
shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in
pieces.
{Isaiah 8:10}
Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought;
speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God [is]
with us.
{Isaiah 8:11}
For the LORD spake thus to me with a strong hand, and
instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying,
{Isaiah 8:12}
Say
ye not, A confederacy, to all them
to whom this
people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear ye their fear,
nor be afraid.
{Isaiah 8:13}
Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let
him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
{Isaiah 8:14}
And
he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of
stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a
gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
{Isaiah 8:15}
And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and
be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
{Isaiah 8:16}
Bind up the testimony,
seal the law among my disciples.
{Isaiah 8:17}
And I will wait upon the LORD,
that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
{Isaiah 8:18}
Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me
are for signs and
for wonders in Israel from the Lord of Hosts, which dwelleth in Mount Zion.
{Isaiah 8:19}
And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have
familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that
mutter: should
not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
{Isaiah 8:20}
To
the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word,
[it is] because
[there is]
no light in them.
{Isaiah 8:21}
And they shall pass
through it, hardly bestead and hungry: and it shall come to pass, that
when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse their
king and their God, and look upward.
{Isaiah 8:22}
And they shall look unto the earth and behold trouble, and darkness,
dimness of anguish, and [they shall be]
driven to darkness.
Isaiah 9:1
Nevertheless, the dimness
shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at first he lightly afflicted
the land of Zebulun and the land of
Naphtali, and afterwards
did more grievously afflict her
by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan,
in Galilee of the nations.
Isaiah 9:2
The people
that walked
in darkness have seen
a
great light:
they
that dwell in
the land of the shadow of death,
upon
them hath the
light
shined.
{Isaiah 9:3}
Thou hast multiplied the nation,
[and] not
increased the
joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, [and]
as [men]
rejoice when they divide the spoil.
{Isaiah 9:4}
For thou hast broken
the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his
oppressor, as in the day of Midian
{Isaiah 9:5}
For every battle of the
warrior [is]
with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but
[this]
shall be with burning [and]
fuel of fire.
{Isaiah 9:6}
For unto us a
child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon
his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The
mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:7 Of the increase of
his government and
peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David,
and upon his kingdom,
to order it, and to
establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth,
even for ever.
The zeal
of the LORD
of hosts will perform this.
{Isaiah 9:8}
The Lord sent
a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon
Israel.
{Isaiah 9:9}
And all the people shall know,
[even]
Ephraim and the
inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,
{Isaiah 9:10}
The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones:
the sycomores are cut down, but we will change [them into]
cedars.
{Isaiah 9:11}
Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against
him, and join his enemies together;
{Isaiah 9:12}
The Syrians before, and the
Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For
all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is]
stretched out still.
{Isaiah 9:13}
For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them,
neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.
{Isaiah 9:14}
Therefore the LORD will
cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
{Isaiah 9:15}
The ancient
and honourable,
he [is]
the head; and the prophet that
teacheth lies, he [is]
the tail.
{Isaiah 9:16}
For the leaders of this people
cause [them]
to err; and [they that are]
led of them
[are] destroyed.
{Isaiah 9:17}
Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither
shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is a hypocrite
and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not
turned away, but his hand [is]
stretched out still.
{Isaiah 9:18}
For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the
briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and
they shall mount up [like]
the lifting up of smoke.
{Isaiah 9:19}
Through the
wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall
be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother.
{Isaiah 9:20}
And
he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on
the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every
man the flesh of his own arm:
{Isaiah 9:21}
Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim,
Manasseh: [and]
they together [shall be]
against Judah. For all this
his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is]
stretched out still.
{Isaiah 10:1}
Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write
grievousness [which]
they have prescribed
{Isaiah 10:2}
To turn aside the
needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my
people, that widows may be their prey, and [that]
they may rob the
fatherless!
{Isaiah 10:3}
And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in
the desolation [which]
shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye
leave your glory?
{Isaiah 10:4}
Without me they shall
bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For
all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is]
stretched out still.
{Isaiah 10:5}
O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their
hand is mine
indignation.
{Isaiah 10:6}
I will send him against an
hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him
a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them
down like the mire of the streets.
{Isaiah 10:7}
Howbeit he meaneth not so,
neither doth his heart think so; but [it is]
in his heart to destroy
and cut off nations not a few.
{Isaiah 10:8}
For he saith,
[Are] not my
princes altogether kings?
{Isaiah 10:9} [Is]
not Calno as Carchemish?
[is]
not
Hamath as Arpad? [is]
not Samaria as Damascus?
{Isaiah 10:10}
As my hand hath
found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them
of Jerusalem and of Samaria?
{Isaiah 10:11}
Shall I not, as I have done unto
Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?
{Isaiah 10:12}
Wherefore it shall come to pass,
[that]
when the Lord hath performed
his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the
fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his
high looks.
{Isaiah 10:13}
For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have
done [it,]
and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have
removed the
bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put
down the inhabitants like a valiant [man: ]
{Isaiah 10:14}
And my hand hath
found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs
[that are] left have I gathered all the earth; and there was none
that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped.
{Isaiah 10:15}
Shall the axe
boast itself against him that heweth therewith? [or]
Shall the
saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? As if the rod should shake
[itself]
against them that lift it up,
[or] as if the staff should lift up
[itself, as if it were]
no wood.
{Isaiah 10:16}
Therefore shall the Lord,
the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his
glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire.
{Isaiah 10:17}
And
the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame:
and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day;
{Isaiah 10:18}
And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful
field, both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standardbearer
fainteth.
{Isaiah 10:19}
And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few,
that a child may write them.
{Isaiah 10:20}
And it shall come to pass in that day,
[that]
the remnant of
Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more
again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the
Holy One of Israel, in truth.
{Isaiah 10:21}
The remnant shall return,
[even]
the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.
{Isaiah 10:22}
For though thy people
Israel be as the sand of the sea,
yet a remnant of
them shall
return: the consumption decreed shall
overflow with righteousness.
{Isaiah 10:23} For the Lord
GOD of hosts
shall make a consumption,
even determined, in
the midst of
all the land.
{Isaiah 10:24}
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that
dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee
with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner
of Egypt.
{Isaiah 10:25}
For yet a very little while, and the indignation
shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.
{Isaiah 10:26}
And the LORD
of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of
Midian at the rock of Oreb: and [as]
his rod [was]
upon the sea, so
shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt.
{Isaiah 10:27}
And it shall
come to pass in that day, [that]
his burden shall be taken away from
off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be
destroyed because of the anointing.
{Isaiah 10:28}
He is come to Aiath, he is
passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages:
{Isaiah 10:29}
They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at
Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled.
{Isaiah 10:30}
Lift up thy
voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor
Anathoth.
{Isaiah 10:31}
Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather
themselves to flee.
{Isaiah 10:32}
As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he
shall shake his hand [against]
the mount of the daughter of Zion, the
hill of Jerusalem.
{Isaiah 10:33}
Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall
lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature [shall be]
hewn
down, and the haughty shall be humbled.
{Isaiah 10:34}
And he shall cut down
the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a
mighty one.
{Isaiah 11:1}
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse,
and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
{Isaiah 11:2}
And
the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the
spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the
spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;
{Isaiah 11:3}
And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear
of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes,
neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
{Isaiah 11:4} But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and
reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the
earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
{Isaiah 11:5}And
righteousness shall be the
girdle
of
his loins, and
faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
{Isaiah 11:6}
The wolf also shall dwell with the
lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the
young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead
them.
{Isaiah 11:7}
And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones
shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
{Isaiah 11:8}
And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the
weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.
{Isaiah 11:9}
They
shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall
be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
{Isaiah 11:10}
And in that day
there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand
for an ensign of the people; to
it shall the Gentiles
seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
{Isaiah 11:11}
And it shall come to pass in that
day, [that]
the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to
recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria,
and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and
from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
{Isaiah 11:12}
And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the
outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the
four corners of the earth.
{Isaiah 11:13}
The envy also of Ephraim shall
depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall
not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
{Isaiah 11:14}
But they shall
fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall
spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom
and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.
{Isaiah 11:15}
And the
LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his
mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it
in the seven streams, and make [men]
go over dryshod.
{Isaiah 11:16}
And there
shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left,
from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out
of the land of Egypt.
{Isaiah 12:1}
And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee:
though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou
comfortedst me.
{Isaiah 12:2}
Behold, God
[is] my salvation; I will trust, and
not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH [is]
my strength and [my]
song; he also
is become
my salvation.
{Isaiah 12:3}
Therefore with joy shall
ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.
{Isaiah 12:4}
And in that day shall ye
say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the
people, make mention that his name is exalted.
{Isaiah 12:5}
Sing unto the
LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this [is]
known in all the
earth.
{Isaiah 12:6}
Cry out and shout, thou
inhabitant of Zion: for great [is]
the Holy One of Israel in the midst of
thee.
{Isaiah 13:1}
The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
{Isaiah 13:2}
Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto
them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
{Isaiah 13:3}
I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my
mighty ones for mine anger, [even]
them that rejoice in my highness.
{Isaiah 13:4}
The noise of
a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great
people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered
together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
{Isaiah 13:5}
They come from a far country, from the end of heaven,
[even]
the LORD,
and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
{Isaiah 13:6}
Howl ye; for the day of the LORD
[is]
at hand; it shall come
as a destruction from the Almighty.
{Isaiah 13:7}
Therefore shall all hands be
faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
{Isaiah 13:8}
And they shall be
afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in
pain as a woman that travaileth:
they shall be amazed one at another; their faces
[shall be as]
flames.
{Isaiah 13:9}
Behold, the day of the LORD
cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land
desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
{Isaiah 13:10}
For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give
their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon
shall not cause her light to shine.
{Isaiah 13:11}
And I will punish the world
for [their]
evil, and the wicked for their iniquity;
and I will cause
the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low
the haughtiness
of the terrible.
{Isaiah 13:12}
I will make a man more precious than fine
gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
{Isaiah 13:13}
Therefore I
will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in
the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
{Isaiah 13:14}
And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man
taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every
one into his own land.
{Isaiah 13:15}
Every one that is
found shall be thrust
through; and every one that is joined [unto them]
shall fall by the
sword.
{Isaiah 13:16}
Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before
their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
{Isaiah 13:17}
Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not
regard silver; and [as for]
gold, they shall not
delight in it..
{Isaiah 13:18}
[Their] bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall
have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare
children.
{Isaiah 13:19}
And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the
Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and
Gomorrah.
{Isaiah 13:20}
It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be
dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch
tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
{Isaiah 13:21}
But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall
be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs
shall dance there.
{Isaiah 13:22}
And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry
in their desolate houses, and dragons in [their]
pleasant palaces: and
her time [is]
near to come, and her days
shall not be prolonged.
{Isaiah 14:1}
For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose
Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be
joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
{Isaiah 14:2}
And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: And the house of Israel shall possess them,
in
the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids; and they shall take them captives
whose
captives they
were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
{Isaiah 14:3}
And it shall
come to pass in the
day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy
sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast
made to serve,
{Isaiah 14:4}
That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of
Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city
ceased!
{Isaiah 14:5}
The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked,
[and]
the
sceptre of the rulers.
{Isaiah 14:6}
He who smote the people in wrath with a
continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted,
[and] none hindereth.
{Isaiah 14:7}
The whole earth is at rest,
[and] is
quiet: they break forth into singing.
{Isaiah 14:8}
Yea, the fir trees rejoice
at thee, [and]
the cedars of Lebanon,
[saying,] Since thou art laid
down, no feller is come up against us.
{Isaiah 14:9}
Hell from beneath is
moved for thee to meet [thee]
at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead
for thee, [even]
all the chief ones of the earth; it hath
raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
{Isaiah 14:10}
All they shall
speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou
become like unto us?
{Isaiah 14:11}
Thy pomp is brought down to the grave,
[and]
the noise of thy viols the worm is spread under thee, and the
worms cover thee.
{Isaiah 14:12}
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer,
son of the morning! [how]
art thou cut down to the ground, which didst
weaken the nations!!
{Isaiah 14:13}
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will
ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I
will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the
north:
{Isaiah 14:14}
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be
like the most High.
{Isaiah 14:15}
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell,
to the sides of the pit.
{Isaiah 14:16}
They that see thee shall narrowly look
upon thee, [and]
consider thee, [saying, Is]
this the man that made the
earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
{Isaiah 14:17} [That]
made the
world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof;
[that] opened not the house of his prisoners?
{Isaiah 14:18}
All the kings of the nations,
[even]
all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
{Isaiah 14:19}
But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch,
[and as]
the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that
go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.
{Isaiah 14:20}
Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast
destroyed thy land, [and]
slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall
never be renowned.
{Isaiah 14:21}
Prepare slaughter for his children for the
iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land,
nor fill the face of the world with cities.
{Isaiah 14:22}
For I will rise up
against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the
name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.
{Isaiah 14:23}
I will
also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I
will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.
{Isaiah 14:24}
The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have
thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, [so]
shall it stand:
{Isaiah 14:25}
That I will
break the Assyrian in my land, and upon
my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off
them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
{Isaiah 14:26}
This [is]
the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this
[is]
the
hand that is stretched out upon all the
nations.
{Isaiah 14:27}
For the LORD
of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul [it?]
and his hand
[is]
stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
{Isaiah 14:28}
In the year that
king Ahaz died was this burden.
{Isaiah 14:29}
Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him
that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come
forth a cockatrice, and his fruit [shall be]
a fiery flying serpent.
{Isaiah 14:30}
And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall
lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall
slay thy remnant.
{Isaiah 14:31}
Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole
Palestina, [art]
dissolved; for
there shall come from the north a smoke, and none [shall be]
alone in his appointed times.
{Isaiah 14:32}
What
shall [one]
then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD
hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.
{Isaiah 15:1} The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid
waste, [and] brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is
laid waste, [and] brought to silence; {Isaiah 15:2} He is gone up to Bajith,
and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and
over Medeba: on all their heads [shall be] baldness, [and] every beard
cut off. {Isaiah 15:3} In their streets they shall gird themselves with
sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one
shall howl, weeping abundantly. {Isaiah 15:4} And Heshbon shall cry, and
Elealeh: their voice shall be heard [even] unto Jahaz: therefore the
armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto
him. {Isaiah 15:5} My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives [shall flee]
unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of
Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim
they shall raise up a cry of destruction. {Isaiah 15:6} For the waters of
Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass
faileth, there is no green thing. {Isaiah 15:7} Therefore the abundance they
have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to
the brook of the willows. {Isaiah 15:8} For the cry is gone round about the
borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling
thereof unto Beer-elim. {Isaiah 15:9} For the waters of Dimon shall be full of
blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth
of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.
{Isaiah 16:1} Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the
wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion. {Isaiah 16:2} For it shall
be, [that,] as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters
of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon. {Isaiah 16:3} Take counsel, execute
judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday;
hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth. {Isaiah 16:4} Let mine
outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face
of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth,
the oppressors are consumed out of the land. {Isaiah 16:5} And in mercy shall
the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the
tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting
righteousness. {Isaiah 16:6} We have heard of the pride of Moab; [he is] very proud:
[even] of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: [but] his lies
[shall] not [be] so. {Isaiah 16:7} Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, every
one shall howl: for the foundations of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn;
surely [they are] stricken. {Isaiah 16:8} For the fields of Heshbon languish,
[and] the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the
principal plants thereof, they are come [even] unto Jazer, they
wandered [through] the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they
are gone over the sea. {Isaiah 16:9} Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of
Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for
the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.
{Isaiah 16:10} And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful field;
and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be
shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in [their] presses; I
have made [their vintage] shouting to cease. {Isaiah 16:11} Wherefore my
bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for
Kir-haresh. {Isaiah 16:12} And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is
weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray;
but he shall not prevail. {Isaiah 16:13} This [is] the word that the LORD hath
spoken concerning Moab since that time. {Isaiah 16:14} But now the LORD hath
spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and
the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude;
and the remnant [shall be] very small [and] feeble. {Isaiah 17:1} The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from
[being] a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. {Isaiah 17:2} The cities of
Aroer [are] forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down,
and none shall make [them] afraid. {Isaiah 17:3} The fortress also shall cease
from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria:
they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of
hosts. {Isaiah 17:4} And in that day it shall come to pass, [that] the glory
of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax
lean. {Isaiah 17:5} And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn,
and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth
ears in the valley of Rephaim.
Isaiah 17:6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the
shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the
uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches
thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
Isaiah 17:7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker,
and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of
Israel.
Isaiah 17:8 And he shall not look to the altars, the
work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have
made, either the groves, or the images.
{Isaiah 17:9} In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough,
and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of
Israel: and there shall be desolation. {Isaiah 17:10} Because thou hast
forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the
rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and
shalt set it with strange slips: {Isaiah 17:11} In the day shalt thou make thy
plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish:
[but] the harvest [shall be] a heap in the day of grief and of
desperate sorrow. {Isaiah 17:12} Woe to the multitude of many people, [which] make a noise
like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, [that] make
a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters! {Isaiah 17:13} The nations shall
rush like the rushing of many waters: but [God] shall rebuke them, and
they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the
mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the
whirlwind. {Isaiah 17:14} And behold at eveningtide trouble; [and] before the
morning he [is] not. This [is] the portion of them that spoil us, and
the lot of them that rob us. {Isaiah 18:1} Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which [is] beyond the
rivers of Ethiopia: {Isaiah 18:2} That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in
vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, [saying,] Go, ye swift
messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from
their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose
land the rivers have spoiled! {Isaiah 18:3} All ye inhabitants of the world,
and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the
mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye. {Isaiah 18:4} For so the
LORD said unto me, I will take my rest, and I will consider in my
dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs, [and] like a cloud of dew
in the heat of harvest. {Isaiah 18:5} For afore the harvest, when the bud is
perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both
cut off the sprigs with pruninghooks, and take away [and] cut down the
branches. {Isaiah 18:6} They shall be left together unto the fowls of the
mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer
upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them. {Isaiah 18:7} In that time shall the present be brought unto the LORD of
hosts of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from
their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden under foot,
whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the
LORD of hosts, the mount Zion. {Isaiah 19:1} The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift
cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved
at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.
{Isaiah 19:2} And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they
shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his
neighbour; city against city, [and] kingdom against kingdom. {Isaiah 19:3} And
the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy
the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the
charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards.
{Isaiah 19:4} And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel
lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD
of hosts. {Isaiah 19:5} And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river
shall be wasted and dried up. {Isaiah 19:6} And they shall turn the rivers far
away; [and] the brooks of defence shall be emptied and dried up: the
reeds and flags shall wither. {Isaiah 19:7} The paper reeds by the brooks, by
the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks, shall
wither, be driven away, and be no [more. ]{Isaiah 19:8} The fishers also shall
mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and
they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish. {Isaiah 19:9} Moreover
they that work in fine flax, and they that weave networks, shall be
confounded. {Isaiah 19:10} And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof,
all that make sluices [and] ponds for fish. {Isaiah 19:11} Surely the princes of Zoan [are] fools, the counsel of the
wise counsellors of Pharaoh is become brutish: how say ye unto Pharaoh,
I [am] the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings? {Isaiah 19:12} Where
[are] they? where [are] thy wise [men?] and let them tell thee now, and
let them know what the LORD of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt. {Isaiah 19:13}
The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived;
they have also seduced Egypt, [even they that are] the stay of the
tribes thereof. {Isaiah 19:14} The LORD hath mingled a perverse spirit in the
midst thereof: and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof,
as a drunken [man] staggereth in his vomit. {Isaiah 19:15} Neither shall there
be [any] work for Egypt, which the head or tail, branch or rush, may
do. {Isaiah 19:16} In that day shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be
afraid and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of
hosts, which he shaketh over it. {Isaiah 19:17} And the land of Judah shall be
a terror unto Egypt, every one that maketh mention thereof shall be
afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the LORD of hosts, which
he hath determined against it. {Isaiah 19:18} In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the
language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be
called, The city of destruction. {Isaiah 19:19} In that day shall there be an
altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at
the border thereof to the LORD. {Isaiah 19:20} And it shall be for a sign and
for a witness unto the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they
shall cry unto the LORD because of the oppressors, and he shall send
them a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them. {Isaiah 19:21} And
the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD
in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a
vow unto the LORD, and perform [it. ]{Isaiah 19:22} And the LORD shall smite
Egypt: he shall smite and heal [it:] and they shall return [even] to
the LORD, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them. {Isaiah 19:23} In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to
Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into
Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. {Isaiah 19:24} In
that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, [even]
a blessing in the midst of the land: {Isaiah 19:25} Whom the LORD of hosts
shall bless, saying, Blessed [be] Egypt my people, and Assyria the work
of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance. {Isaiah 20:1} In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the
king of Assyria sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it;
{Isaiah 20:2} At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz,
saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy
shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot. {Isaiah 20:3}
And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and
barefoot three years [for] a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon
Ethiopia; {Isaiah 20:4} So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians
prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and
barefoot, even with [their] buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
{Isaiah 20:5} And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their
expectation, and of Egypt their glory. {Isaiah 20:6} And the inhabitant of
this isle shall say in that day, Behold, such [is] our expectation,
whither we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria: and
how shall we escape? {Isaiah 21:1} The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the
south pass through; [so] it cometh from the desert, from a terrible
land. {Isaiah 21:2} A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous
dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam:
besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease. {Isaiah 21:3}
Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold upon me,
as the pangs of a woman that travaileth: I was bowed down at the
hearing [of it;] I was dismayed at the seeing [of it. ]{Isaiah 21:4} My heart
panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he
turned into fear unto me. {Isaiah 21:5} Prepare the table, watch in the
watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, [and] anoint the shield.
{Isaiah 21:6} For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him
declare what he seeth. {Isaiah 21:7} And he saw a chariot [with] a couple of
horsemen, a chariot of asses, [and] a chariot of camels; and he
hearkened diligently with much heed: {Isaiah 21:8} And he cried, A lion: My
lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am
set in my ward whole nights:
{Isaiah 21:9} And, behold, here cometh a chariot
of men, [with] a couple of horsemen. And he
answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all
the graven images of her
gods he hath
broken unto the ground.
{Isaiah 21:10} O my threshing, and the corn of my
floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel,
have I declared unto you. {Isaiah 21:11} The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman,
what of the night? Watchman, what of the night? {Isaiah 21:12} The watchman
said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire,
enquire ye: return, come. {Isaiah 21:13} The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye
lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim. {Isaiah 21:14} The inhabitants of
the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented
with their bread him that fled. {Isaiah 21:15} For they fled from the swords,
from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness
of war. {Isaiah 21:16} For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Within a year,
according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall
fail: {Isaiah 21:17} And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men
of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the LORD God of
Israel hath spoken [it. ]{Isaiah 22:1} The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now,
that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops? {Isaiah 22:2} Thou that art
full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain [men are]
not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle. {Isaiah 22:3} All thy rulers are
fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in
thee are bound together, [which] have fled from far. {Isaiah 22:4} Therefore
said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort
me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people. {Isaiah 22:5} For
[it is] a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by
the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls,
and of crying to the mountains. {Isaiah 22:6} And Elam bare the quiver with
chariots of men [and] horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield. {Isaiah 22:7}
And it shall come to pass, [that] thy choicest valleys shall be full of
chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate. {Isaiah 22:8} And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look
in that day to the armour of the house of the forest. {Isaiah 22:9} Ye have
seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye
gathered together the waters of the lower pool. {Isaiah 22:10} And ye have
numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to
fortify the wall. {Isaiah 22:11} Ye made also a ditch between the two walls
for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker
thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.
{Isaiah 22:12} And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and
to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:
{Isaiah 22:13}And
behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and
drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to
morrow we shall die.
{Isaiah 22:14} And it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts,
Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith
the Lord GOD of hosts. {Isaiah 22:15} Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this
treasurer, [even] unto Shebna, which [is] over the house, [and say,]
{Isaiah 22:16} What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast
hewed thee out a sepulchre here, [as] he that heweth him out a sepulchre on
high, [and] that graveth an habitation for himself in a rock?
{Isaiah 22:17} Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty
captivity, and will surely cover thee. {Isaiah 22:18} He will surely violently
turn and toss thee [like] a ball into a large country: there shalt thou
die, and there the chariots of thy glory [shall be] the shame of thy
lord's house. {Isaiah 22:19} And I will drive thee from thy station, and from
thy state shall he pull thee down. {Isaiah 22:20} And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my
servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah: {Isaiah 22:21} And I will clothe him with
thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy
government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants
of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
Isaiah 22:22 And
the key of the
house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so
he shall
open,
and none shall shut; and he
shall shut, and none shall
open.
{Isaiah 22:23} And I will
fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious
throne to his father's house. {Isaiah 22:24} And they shall hang upon him all
the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all
vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the
vessels of flagons. {Isaiah 22:25} In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall
the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut
down, and fall; and the burden that [was] upon it shall be cut off: for
the LORD hath spoken [it. ]{Isaiah 23:1} The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is
laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of
Chittim it is revealed to them. {Isaiah 23:2} Be still, ye inhabitants of the
isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have
replenished. {Isaiah 23:3} And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest
of the river, [is] her revenue; and she is a mart of nations. {Isaiah 23:4} Be
thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, [even] the strength of
the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I
nourish up young men, [nor] bring up virgins. {Isaiah 23:5} As at the report
concerning Egypt, [so] shall they be sorely pained at the report of
Tyre. {Isaiah 23:6} Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the
isle. {Isaiah 23:7} [Is] this your joyous [city,] whose antiquity [is] of
ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn. {Isaiah 23:8}
Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning [city,] whose
merchants [are] princes, whose traffickers [are] the honourable of the
earth? {Isaiah 23:9} The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of
all glory, [and] to bring into contempt all the honourable of the
earth. {Isaiah 23:10} Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of
Tarshish: [there is] no more strength. {Isaiah 23:11} He stretched out his
hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the LORD hath given a
commandment against the merchant [city,] to destroy the strong holds
thereof. {Isaiah 23:12} And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou
oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there
also shalt thou have no rest. {Isaiah 23:13} Behold the land of the Chaldeans;
this people was not, [til] the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell
in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the
palaces thereof; [and] he brought it to ruin. {Isaiah 23:14} Howl, ye ships of
Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste. {Isaiah 23:15} And it shall come to
pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according
to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing
as an harlot. {Isaiah 23:16} Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that
hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou
mayest be remembered. {Isaiah 23:17} And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years,
that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and
shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the
face of the earth. {Isaiah 23:18} And her merchandise and her hire shall be
holiness to the LORD: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her
merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat
sufficiently, and for durable clothing. {Isaiah 24:1} Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste,
and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants
thereof. {Isaiah 24:2} And it shall be, as with the people, so with the
priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so
with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the
lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the
giver of usury to him. {Isaiah 24:3} The land shall be utterly emptied, and
utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word. {Isaiah 24:4} The earth
mourneth [and] fadeth away, the world languisheth [and] fadeth away,
the haughty people of the earth do languish. {Isaiah 24:5} The earth also is
defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed
the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
{Isaiah 24:6} Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell
therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are
burned, and few men left. {Isaiah 24:7} The new wine mourneth, the vine
languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh. {Isaiah 24:8} The mirth of tabrets
ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp
ceaseth. {Isaiah 24:9} They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink
shall be bitter to them that drink it. {Isaiah 24:10} The city of confusion is
broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in. {Isaiah 24:11}
[There is] a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the
mirth of the land is gone. {Isaiah 24:12} In the city is left desolation, and
the gate is smitten with destruction. {Isaiah 24:13} When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the
people, [there shall be] as the shaking of an olive tree, [and] as the
gleaning grapes when the vintage is done. {Isaiah 24:14} They shall lift up
their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the LORD, they shall
cry aloud from the sea. {Isaiah 24:15} Wherefore glorify ye the LORD in the
fires, [even] the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the
sea. {Isaiah 24:16} From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs,
[even] glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness,
woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the
treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.
{Isaiah 24:17}
Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon
thee, O
inhabitant of the earth.
{Isaiah 24:18} And it shall come to pass, [that] he who fleeth from the noise
of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the
midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on
high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake. {Isaiah 24:19} The
earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth
is moved exceedingly. {Isaiah 24:20} The earth shall reel to and fro like a
drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression
thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.
{Isaiah 24:21} And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the LORD shall
punish the host of the high ones [that are] on high, and the kings of
the earth upon the earth. {Isaiah 24:22} And they shall be gathered together,
[as] prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the
prison, and after many days shall they be visited. {Isaiah 24:23} Then the
moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts
shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients
gloriously. {Isaiah 25:1} O LORD, thou [art] my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise
thy name; for thou hast done wonderful [things; thy] counsels of old
[are] faithfulness [and] truth. {Isaiah 25:2} For thou hast made of a city an
heap; [of] a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city;
it shall never be built. {Isaiah 25:3} Therefore shall the strong people
glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee. {Isaiah 25:4}
For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in
his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the
blast of the terrible ones [is] as a storm [against] the wall. {Isaiah 25:5}
Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry
place; [even] the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the
terrible ones shall be brought low. {Isaiah 25:6} And in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all
people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat
things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
{Isaiah 25:7} And he
will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all
people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.
{Isaiah 25:8} {Isaiah 25:8}
He will
swallow up death in victory;
and the Lord
God will
wipe away tears from off
all faces; and the rebuke of his people
shall he take away from off
all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken [it.]
{Isaiah 25:9} And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this [is] our God; we
have waited for him, and he will save us: this [is] the LORD; we have
waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. {Isaiah 25:10}
For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be
trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
{Isaiah 25:11} And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he
that swimmeth spreadeth forth [his hands] to swim: and he shall bring
down their pride together with the spoils of their hands. {Isaiah 25:12} And
the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay
low, [and] bring to the ground, [even] to the dust. {Isaiah 26:1} In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We
have a strong city; salvation will [God] appoint [for] walls and
bulwarks. {Isaiah 26:2} Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which
keepeth the truth may enter in. {Isaiah 26:3} Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect
peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee:] because he trusteth in thee.
{Isaiah 26:4} Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH [is]
everlasting strength: {Isaiah 26:5} For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city,
he layeth it low; he layeth it low, [even] to the ground; he bringeth
it [even] to the dust. {Isaiah 26:6} The foot shall tread it down, [even] the
feet of the poor, [and] the steps of the needy. {Isaiah 26:7} The way of the
just [is] uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the
just. {Isaiah 26:8} Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited
for thee; the desire of [our] soul [is] to thy name, and to the
remembrance of thee. {Isaiah 26:9} With my soul have I desired thee in the
night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when
thy judgments [are] in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will
learn righteousness. {Isaiah 26:10} Let favour be shewed to the wicked, [yet]
will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he
deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD.
{Isaiah 26:11}LORD,
when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be
ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine
enemies
shall devour them.
{Isaiah 26:12} LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast
wrought all our works in us. {Isaiah 26:13} O LORD our God, [other] lords
besides thee have had dominion over us: [but] by thee only will we make
mention of thy name. {Isaiah 26:14} [They are] dead, they shall not live;
[they are] deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited
and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish. {Isaiah 26:15} Thou
hast increased the nation, O LORD, thou hast increased the nation: thou
art glorified: thou hadst removed [it] far [unto] all the ends of the
earth. {Isaiah 26:16} LORD, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out
a prayer [when] thy chastening [was] upon them. {Isaiah 26:17} Like as a woman
with child, [that] draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain,
[and] crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O LORD.
{Isaiah 26:18} We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it
were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the
earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen. {Isaiah 26:19} Thy
dead [men] shall live, [together with] my dead body shall they arise.
Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew [is as] the dew of
herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. {Isaiah 26:20}
Come, my people,
enter thou
into thy chambers,
and shut thy doors about
thee: hide thyself as it were
for a little moment,
until the indignation be overpast.
{Isaiah 26:21} For, behold, the LORD cometh out
of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity:
the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her
slain. {Isaiah 27:1} In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword
shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that
crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that [is] in the sea.
{Isaiah 27:2} In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine. {Isaiah
27:3} I
the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest [any] hurt it,
I will keep it night and day. {Isaiah 27:4} Fury [is] not in me: who would set
the briers [and] thorns against me in battle? I would go through them,
I would burn them together. {Isaiah 27:5} Or let him take hold of my strength,
[that] he may make peace with me; [and] he shall make peace with me.
{Isaiah 27:6} He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel
shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit. {Isaiah 27:7} Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? [or]
is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?
{Isaiah 27:8} In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he
stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
{Isaiah 27:9} By
this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged;
and this is all the fruit to take away his
sin; when he maketh all the
stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves
and images shall not stand up.
{Isaiah 27:10} Yet the defenced city [shall be] desolate, [and]
the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the
calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches
thereof. {Isaiah 27:11} When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be
broken off: the women come, [and] set them on fire: for it [is] a
people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have
mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour. {Isaiah 27:12} And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the LORD shall
beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye
shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel. {Isaiah 27:13} And it
shall come to pass in that day, [that] the great trumpet shall be
blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of
Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the
LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem. {Isaiah 28:1} Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose
glorious beauty is a fading flower, which [are] on the head of the fat
valleys of them that are overcome with wine! {Isaiah 28:2} Behold, the Lord
hath a mighty and strong one, [which] as a tempest of hail [and] a
destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast
down to the earth with the hand. {Isaiah 28:3} The crown of pride, the
drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet: {Isaiah 28:4} And the
glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a
fading flower, [and] as the hasty fruit before the summer; which [when]
he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it
up. {Isaiah 28:5} In that day shall the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory,
and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people, {Isaiah 28:6} And
for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for
strength to them that turn the battle to the gate. {Isaiah 28:7} But they also have erred through wine, and through strong
drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through
strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way
through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble [in] judgment.
{Isaiah 28:8} For all tables are full of vomit [and] filthiness, [so that
there is] no place [clean. ]{Isaiah 28:9} Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to
understand doctrine? [them that are] weaned from the milk, [and] drawn
from the breasts.
{Isaiah 28:10} For precept [must be] upon precept, precept
upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and]
there a little:
{Isaiah 28:11}
For with
stammering lips and another tongue will
he
speak to this people.
{Isaiah 28:12} To
whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may
cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing:
yet they would not
hear.
{Isaiah 28:13} But the word of
the LORD
was
unto them
precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon
line, line upon line;
here a little, [and]
there a little; that they
might go,
and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
{Isaiah 28:14} Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that
rule this people which [is] in Jerusalem. {Isaiah 28:15} Because ye have said,
We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement;
when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto
us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid
ourselves:
{Isaiah 28:16}
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD,
Behold, I lay in
Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a
sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
{Isaiah 28:17} Judgment
also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the
hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow
the hiding place. {Isaiah 28:18} And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your
agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall
pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. {Isaiah 28:19} From the
time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning
shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation
only to understand the report. {Isaiah 28:20} For the bed is shorter than that
[a man] can stretch himself [on it:] and the covering narrower than
that he can wrap himself [in it. ]{Isaiah 28:21} For the LORD shall rise up as
[in] mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as [in] the valley of Gibeon,
that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act,
his strange act. {Isaiah 28:22} Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your
bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a
consumption, even determined upon the whole earth. {Isaiah 28:23} Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
{Isaiah 28:24} Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break
the clods of his ground? {Isaiah 28:25} When he hath made plain the face
thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin,
and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and rie in
their place? {Isaiah 28:26} For his God doth instruct him to discretion, [and]
doth teach him. {Isaiah 28:27} For the fitches are not threshed with a
threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the
cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin
with a rod. {Isaiah 28:28} Bread [corn] is bruised; because he will not ever
be threshing it, nor break [it with] the wheel of his cart, nor bruise
it [with] his horsemen. {Isaiah 28:29} This also cometh forth from the LORD of
hosts, [which] is wonderful in counsel, [and] excellent in working. {Isaiah 29:1} Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city [where] David dwelt! add ye
year to year; let them kill sacrifices. {Isaiah 29:2} Yet I will distress
Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me
as Ariel.
{Isaiah 29:3}
And I
will camp against
thee
round about, and will lay
siege against thee
with a mount, and
I will
raise forts against
thee.
{Isaiah 29:4}
And thou shalt be brought down, [and]
shall speak out of the
ground, and thy
speech shall be low out of the dust, and
thy
voice
shall be, as of
one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and
thy
speech shall whisper out of the dust.
{Isaiah 29:5} Moreover the multitude
of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the
terrible ones [shall be] as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be
at an instant suddenly.
{Isaiah 29:6} Thou
shalt be visited of the LORD of
hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm
and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
{Isaiah 29:7} And the multitude of all the nations that fight against
Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that
distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision. {Isaiah 29:8} It shall
even be as when an hungry [man] dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but
he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth,
and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, [he is] faint,
and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations
be, that fight against mount Zion.
{Isaiah 29:9}
Stay yourselves, and wonder;
cry ye out, and cry: they are
drunken, but not with wine;
they stagger,
but not with strong drink.
{Isaiah 29:10}
For the LORD hath
poured out upon
you the spirit of
deep
sleep, and hath closed your
eyes:
the prophets; and
your rulers, the seers hath he covered .
{Isaiah 29:11}
And the
vision of
all is become unto you as
the words of a
book
that is sealed,
which [men] deliver to
one that is
learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee:
and he saith,
I cannot; for it [is]
sealed:
{Isaiah 29:12}
And the book is delivered
to him that is not
learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee:
and he saith,
I am not learned.
{Isaiah 29:13}
Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as
this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do
honour me, but have removed
their heart far from me, and their fear
toward me is taught by the precept of men:
{Isaiah 29:14} Therefore,
behold,
I will proceed to do a marvellous
work among this people, even
a marvellous work and a wonder: for
the
wisdom of
their
wise men shall
perish, and the
understanding of their
prudent men
shall be hid.
{Isaiah 29:15}
Woe unto
them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their
works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
{Isaiah 29:16}
Surely your turning of things upside down shall be
esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made
it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it,
He had no understanding?
{Isaiah 29:17} [Is]
it
not
yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful
field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
{Isaiah 29:18}
And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book,
and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of
darkness.
{Isaiah 29:19}
The meek also shall increase
[their]
joy in the LORD,
and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
{Isaiah 29:20}
For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed,
and all that watch for iniquity are cut off:
{Isaiah 29:21}
That make a man an
offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the
gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought.
{Isaiah 29:22}
Therefore
thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of
Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax
pale.
{Isaiah 29:23}
But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands,
in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy
One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel
{Isaiah 29:24}
They also that
erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured
shall learn doctrine.
{Isaiah 30:1} Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take
counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my
spirit, that they may add sin to sin: {Isaiah 30:2} That walk to go down into
Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the
strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt! {Isaiah 30:3}
Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in
the shadow of Egypt [your] confusion. {Isaiah 30:4} For his princes were at
Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes. {Isaiah 30:5} They were all ashamed
of a people [that] could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit,
but a shame, and also a reproach. {Isaiah 30:6} The burden of the beasts of
the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence [come] the
young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry
their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures
upon the bunches of camels, to a people [that] shall not profit [them.
]{Isaiah 30:7} For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose:
therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength [is] to sit
still. {Isaiah 30:8} Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a
book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever: {Isaiah 30:9}
That this [is] a rebellious people, lying children, children [that]
will not hear the law of the LORD: {Isaiah 30:10} Which say to the seers, See
not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto
us smooth things, prophesy deceits: {Isaiah 30:11} Get you out of the way,
turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from
before us. {Isaiah 30:12} Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because
ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and
stay thereon: {Isaiah 30:13} Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a
breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking
cometh suddenly at an instant. {Isaiah 30:14} And he shall break it as the
breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not
spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd
to take fire from the hearth, or to take water [withal] out of the pit.
{Isaiah 30:15} For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In
returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence
shall be your strength: and ye would not. {Isaiah 30:16} But ye said, No; for
we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride
upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift. {Isaiah 30:17}
One thousand [shall flee] at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five
shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain,
and as an ensign on an hill. {Isaiah 30:18} And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious
unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon
you: for the LORD [is] a God of judgment: blessed [are] all they that
wait for him. {Isaiah 30:19} For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem:
thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the
voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee. {Isaiah 30:20}
And [though] the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of
affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any
more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers: {Isaiah 30:21} And thine ears
shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This [is] the way, walk ye in
it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
{Isaiah 30:22} Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of
silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast
them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee
hence. {Isaiah 30:23} Then shall he give the rain of thy seed, that thou shalt
sow the ground withal; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it
shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed in large
pastures. {Isaiah 30:24} The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the
ground shall eat clean provender, which hath been winnowed with the
shovel and with the fan. {Isaiah 30:25} And there shall be upon every high
mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers [and] streams of waters in
the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall. {Isaiah 30:26} Moreover
the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light
of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day
that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the
stroke of their wound. {Isaiah 30:27} Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning [with]
his anger, and the burden [thereof is] heavy: his lips are full of
indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire: {Isaiah 30:28} And his
breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck,
to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and [there shall be] a
bridle in the jaws of the people, causing [them] to err. {Isaiah 30:29} Ye
shall have a song, as in the night [when] a holy solemnity is kept; and
gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the
mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel. {Isaiah 30:30} And the LORD
shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting
down of his arm, with the indignation of [his] anger, and [with] the
flame of a devouring fire, [with] scattering, and tempest, and
hailstones. {Isaiah 30:31} For through the voice of the LORD shall the
Assyrian be beaten down, [which] smote with a rod. {Isaiah 30:32} And [in]
every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall
lay upon him, [it] shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of
shaking will he fight with it. {Isaiah 30:33} For Tophet [is] ordained of old;
yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made [it] deep [and] large:
the pile thereof [is] fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like
a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it. {Isaiah 31:1} Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on
horses, and trust in chariots, because [they are] many; and in
horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy
One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! {Isaiah 31:2} Yet he also [is] wise, and
will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise
against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that
work iniquity. {Isaiah 31:3} Now the Egyptians [are] men, and not God; and
their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD shall stretch out his
hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall
down, and they all shall fail together. {Isaiah 31:4} For thus hath the LORD
spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his
prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, [he]
will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of
them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and
for the hill thereof. {Isaiah 31:5} As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts
defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver [it; and] passing over
he will preserve [it.]
{Isaiah 31:6} Turn ye unto [him from] whom the children of Israel have
deeply revolted. {Isaiah 31:7} For in that day every man shall cast away his
idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made
unto you [for] a sin. {Isaiah 31:8} Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty
man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall
flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited. {Isaiah 31:9} And
he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall
be afraid of the ensign, saith the LORD, whose fire [is] in Zion, and
his furnace in Jerusalem. {Isaiah 32:1} Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes
shall rule in judgment. {Isaiah 32:2} And a man shall be as an hiding place
from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a
dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. {Isaiah 32:3} And
the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that
hear shall hearken. {Isaiah 32:4} The heart also of the rash shall understand
knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak
plainly. {Isaiah 32:5} The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor
the churl said [to be] bountiful. {Isaiah 32:6} For the vile person will speak
villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and
to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry,
and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. {Isaiah 32:7} The
instruments also of the churl [are] evil: he deviseth wicked devices to
destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.
{Isaiah 32:8} But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things
shall he stand. {Isaiah 32:9} Rise up, ye women that are at ease; hear my voice, ye
careless daughters; give ear unto my speech. {Isaiah 32:10} Many days and
years shall ye be troubled, ye careless women: for the vintage shall
fail, the gathering shall not come. {Isaiah 32:11} Tremble, ye women that are
at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones: strip you, and make you bare,
and gird [sackcloth] upon [your] loins. {Isaiah 32:12} They shall lament for
the teats, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine. {Isaiah 32:13} Upon
the land of my people shall come up thorns [and] briers; yea, upon all
the houses of joy [in] the joyous city: {Isaiah 32:14} Because the palaces
shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts
and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture
of flocks; {Isaiah 32:15} Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and
the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted
for a forest. {Isaiah 32:16} Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and
righteousness remain in the fruitful field. {Isaiah 32:17} And the work of
righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness
and assurance for ever. {Isaiah 32:18} And my people shall dwell in a
peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting
places; {Isaiah 32:19} When it shall hail, coming down on the forest; and the
city shall be low in a low place. {Isaiah 32:20} Blessed [are] ye that sow
beside all waters, that send forth [thither] the feet of the ox and the
ass. {Isaiah 33:1} Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou [wast] not spoiled; and
dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when
thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; [and] when thou shalt
make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with
thee. {Isaiah 33:2} O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be
thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of
trouble. {Isaiah 33:3} At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the
lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered. {Isaiah 33:4} And your spoil
shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpiller: as the
running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them. {Isaiah 33:5} The LORD
is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment
and righteousness. {Isaiah 33:6} And wisdom and knowledge shall be the
stability of thy times, [and] strength of salvation: the fear of the
LORD [is] his treasure. {Isaiah 33:7} Behold, their valiant ones shall cry
without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly. {Isaiah 33:8} The
highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the
covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man. {Isaiah 33:9} The
earth mourneth [and] languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed [and] hewn down:
Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their
fruits. ]{Isaiah 33:10} Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be
exalted; now will I lift up myself. {Isaiah 33:11} Ye shall conceive chaff, ye
shall bring forth stubble: your breath, [as] fire, shall devour you.
{Isaiah 33:12} And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: [as] thorns
cut up shall they be burned in the fire. {Isaiah 33:13} Hear, ye [that are] far off, what I have done; and, ye [that
are] near, acknowledge my might. {Isaiah 33:14} The sinners in Zion are
afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall
dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with
everlasting burnings? {Isaiah 33:15} He that walketh righteously, and speaketh
uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his
hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of
blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; {Isaiah 33:16} He shall dwell
on high: his place of defence [shall be] the munitions of rocks: bread
shall be given him; his waters [shall be] sure. {Isaiah 33:17} Thine eyes
shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is
very far off. {Isaiah 33:18} Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where [is] the
scribe? where [is] the receiver? where [is] he that counted the towers?
{Isaiah 33:19} Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech
than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, [that thou canst] not
understand. {Isaiah 33:20} Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine
eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle [that] shall
not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed,
neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken. {Isaiah 33:21} But there the
glorious LORD [will be] unto us a place of broad rivers [and] streams;
wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass
thereby. {Isaiah 33:22} For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our
lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us. {Isaiah 33:23} Thy
tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they
could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided;
the lame take the prey. {Isaiah 33:24} And the inhabitant shall not say, I am
sick: the people that dwell therein [shall be] forgiven [their]
iniquity. {Isaiah 34:1} Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye people: let
the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that
come forth of it. {Isaiah 34:2} For the indignation of the LORD [is] upon all
nations, and [his] fury upon all their armies: he hath utterly
destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter. {Isaiah 34:3} Their
slain also shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up out of
their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
{Isaiah
34:4}
And
all
the
host of
heaven
shall be dissolved, and the heavens
shall be
rolled together as a
scroll:
and all
their
host shall
fall down, as
the leaf falleth off
from the
vine, and
as a
falling [fig] from
the fig tree.
{Isaiah 34:5} For my sword shall be bathed in heaven:
behold, it shall come down upon Idumea, and upon the people of my
curse, to judgment. {Isaiah 34:6} The sword of the LORD is filled with blood,
it is made fat with fatness, [and] with the blood of lambs and goats,
with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD hath a sacrifice in
Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea. {Isaiah 34:7} And the
unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls;
and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with
fatness. {Isaiah 34:8} For [it is] the day of the LORD'S vengeance, [and] the
year of recompences for the controversy of Zion. {Isaiah 34:9} And the streams
thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into
brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
{Isaiah 34:10} It
shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke
thereof shall go up for
ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through
it for ever and ever.
{Isaiah 34:11} But the cormorant and the bittern
shall possess it; the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it: and he
shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion, and the stones of
emptiness. {Isaiah 34:12} They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom,
but none [shall be] there, and all her princes shall be nothing.
{Isaiah 34:13} And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles
in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons,
[and] a court for owls. {Isaiah 34:14} The wild beasts of the desert shall
also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry
to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for
herself a place of rest. {Isaiah 34:15} There shall the great owl make her
nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow: there shall the
vultures also be gathered, every one with her mate. {Isaiah 34:16} Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of
these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath
commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them. {Isaiah 34:17} And he hath
cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them by line:
they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation shall
they dwell therein. {Isaiah 35:1} The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them;
and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. {Isaiah 35:2} It shall
blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of
Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon,
they shall see the glory of the LORD, [and] the excellency of our God.
{Isaiah 35:3} Strengthen
ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble
knees.
{Isaiah 35:4} Say to them [that are] of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not:
behold, your God will come [with] vengeance, [even] God [with] a
recompence; he will come and save you.
{Isaiah 35:5} Then
the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the
deaf shall be unstopped.
{Isaiah 35:6} Then shall the lame [man] leap as an hart, and the tongue of the
dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in
the desert. {Isaiah 35:7} And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the
thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each
lay, [shall be] grass with reeds and rushes. {Isaiah 35:8} And an highway
shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness;
the unclean shall not pass over it; but it [shall be] for those: the
wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err [therein. ]{Isaiah 35:9} No lion
shall be there, nor [any] ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall
not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk [there: ]{Isaiah 35:10} And
the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and
everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness,
and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. {Isaiah 36:1} Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah,
[that] Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the defenced
cities of Judah, and took them. {Isaiah 36:2} And the king of Assyria sent
Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem unto king Hezekiah with a great
army. And he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of
the fuller's field. {Isaiah 36:3} Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah's
son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, Asaph's
son, the recorder. {Isaiah 36:4} And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus
saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this
wherein thou trustest? {Isaiah 36:5} I say, [sayest thou,] (but [they are but]
vain words) [I have] counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost
thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? {Isaiah 36:6} Lo, thou trustest in
the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will
go into his hand, and pierce it: so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all
that trust in him. {Isaiah 36:7} But if thou say to me, We trust in the LORD
our God: [is it] not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah
hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship
before this altar? {Isaiah 36:8} Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to
my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand
horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. {Isaiah 36:9} How
then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my
master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for
horsemen? {Isaiah 36:10} And am I now come up without the LORD against this
land to destroy it? the LORD said unto me, Go up against this land, and
destroy it. {Isaiah 36:11} Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak,
I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we
understand [it:] and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears
of the people that [are] on the wall. {Isaiah 36:12} But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and
to thee to speak these words? [hath he] not [sent me] to the men that
sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their
own piss with you? {Isaiah 36:13} Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud
voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great
king, the king of Assyria. {Isaiah 36:14} Thus saith the king, Let not
Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you. {Isaiah 36:15}
Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will
surely deliver us: this city shall not be delivered into the hand of
the king of Assyria. {Isaiah 36:16} Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith
the king of Assyria, Make [an agreement] with me [by] a present, and
come out to me: and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his
fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern; {Isaiah 36:17}
Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of
corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards. {Isaiah 36:18} [Beware] lest
Hezekiah persuade you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. Hath any of
the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king
of Assyria? {Isaiah 36:19} Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arphad? where
[are] the gods of Sepharvaim? and have they delivered Samaria out of my
hand? {Isaiah 36:20} Who [are they] among all the gods of these lands, that
have delivered their land out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver
Jerusalem out of my hand? {Isaiah 36:21} But they held their peace, and
answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer
him not. {Isaiah 36:22} Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that [was] over the
household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the
recorder, to Hezekiah with [their] clothes rent, and told him the words
of Rabshakeh. {Isaiah 37:1} And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard [it,] that he
rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the
house of the LORD. {Isaiah 37:2} And he sent Eliakim, who [was] over the
household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered
with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz. {Isaiah 37:3} And
they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day [is] a day of
trouble, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to
the birth, and [there is] not strength to bring forth. {Isaiah 37:4} It may be
the LORD thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of
Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God, and will
reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up
[thy] prayer for the remnant that is left. {Isaiah 37:5} So the servants of
king Hezekiah came to Isaiah. {Isaiah 37:6} And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your
master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast
heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed
me. {Isaiah 37:7} Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a
rumour, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the
sword in his own land. {Isaiah 37:8} So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring
against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
{Isaiah 37:9} And he heard say concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He is
come forth to make war with thee. And when he heard [it,] he sent
messengers to Hezekiah, saying, {Isaiah 37:10} Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah
king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive
thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of
Assyria. {Isaiah 37:11} Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have
done to all lands by destroying them utterly; and shalt thou be
delivered? {Isaiah 37:12} Have the gods of the nations delivered them which my
fathers have destroyed, [as] Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the
children of Eden which [were] in Telassar? {Isaiah 37:13} Where [is] the king
of Hamath, and the king of Arphad, and the king of the city of
Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? {Isaiah 37:14} And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the
messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the
LORD, and spread it before the LORD. {Isaiah 37:15} And Hezekiah prayed unto
the LORD, saying, {Isaiah 37:16} O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest
[between] the cherubims, thou [art] the God, [even] thou alone, of all
the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth. {Isaiah 37:17}
Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see:
and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach the
living God. {Isaiah 37:18} Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid
waste all the nations, and their countries, {Isaiah 37:19} And have cast their
gods into the fire: for they [were] no gods, but the work of men's
hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them. {Isaiah 37:20} Now
therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms
of the earth may know that thou [art] the LORD, [even] thou only. {Isaiah 37:21} Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus
saith the LORD God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me against
Sennacherib king of Assyria: {Isaiah 37:22} This [is] the word which the LORD
hath spoken concerning him; The virgin, the daughter of Zion, hath
despised thee, [and] laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem
hath shaken her head at thee. {Isaiah 37:23} Whom hast thou reproached and
blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted [thy] voice, and lifted
up thine eyes on high? [even] against the Holy One of Israel. {Isaiah 37:24}
By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and hast said, By the
multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains,
to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof,
[and] the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the height of
his border, [and] the forest of his Carmel. {Isaiah 37:25} I have digged, and
drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the
rivers of the besieged places. {Isaiah 37:26} Hast thou not heard long ago,
[how] I have done it; [and] of ancient times, that I have formed it?
now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste
defenced cities [into] ruinous heaps.
{Isaiah 37:27} Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were
dismayed and confounded: they were as the grass of the field, and as the
green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it
be grown up.
{Isaiah 37:28} But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in,
and thy rage against me. {Isaiah 37:29} Because thy rage against me, and thy
tumult, is come up into mine ears, therefore will I put my hook in thy
nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way
by which thou camest. {Isaiah 37:30} And this [shall be] a sign unto thee, Ye
shall eat [this] year such as groweth of itself; and the second year
that which springeth of the same: and in the third year sow ye, and
reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof. {Isaiah 37:31} And the
remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root
downward, and bear fruit upward: {Isaiah 37:32} For out of Jerusalem shall go
forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of
the LORD of hosts shall do this. {Isaiah 37:33} Therefore thus saith the LORD
concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor
shoot an arrow there nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank
against it. {Isaiah 37:34} By the way that he came, by the same shall he
return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD. {Isaiah 37:35} For
I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my
servant David's sake. {Isaiah 37:36} Then the angel of the LORD went forth,
and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five
thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they [were]
all dead corpses. {Isaiah 37:37} So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and
returned, and dwelt at Nineveh. {Isaiah 37:38} And it came to pass, as he was
worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and
Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the
land of Armenia: and Esar-haddon his son reigned in his stead. {Isaiah 38:1} In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the
prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus saith
the LORD, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die, and not live.
{Isaiah 38:2} Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed unto
the LORD, {Isaiah 38:3} And said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I
have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have
done [that which is] good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. {Isaiah 38:4} Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying, {Isaiah 38:5}
Go,
and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father,
I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto
thy days fifteen years. {Isaiah 38:6} And I will deliver thee and this city
out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city.
{Isaiah 38:7} And this [shall be] a sign unto thee from the LORD, that the
LORD will do this thing that he hath spoken; {Isaiah 38:8} Behold, I will
bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun
dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by
which degrees it was gone down. {Isaiah 38:9} The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick,
and was recovered of his sickness: {Isaiah 38:10} I said in the cutting off of
my days, I shall go to the gates of the grave: I am deprived of the
residue of my years. {Isaiah 38:11} I said, I shall not see the LORD, [even]
the LORD, in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with
the inhabitants of the world. {Isaiah 38:12} Mine age is departed, and is
removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off like a weaver my
life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day [even] to night
wilt thou make an end of me. {Isaiah 38:13} I reckoned till morning, [that,]
as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day [even] to night wilt
thou make an end of me. {Isaiah 38:14} Like a crane [or] a swallow, so did I
chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail [with looking] upward: O
LORD, I am oppressed; undertake for me. {Isaiah 38:15} What shall I say? he
hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done [it:] I shall go softly
all my years in the bitterness of my soul. {Isaiah 38:16} O Lord, by these
[things men] live, and in all these [things is] the life of my spirit:
so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live. {Isaiah 38:17} Behold, for peace
I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul [delivered it]
from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy
back. {Isaiah 38:18} For the grave cannot praise thee, death can [not]
celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy
truth. {Isaiah 38:19} The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I [do]
this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
{Isaiah 38:20} The LORD [was ready] to save me: therefore we will sing my
songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house
of the LORD. {Isaiah 38:21} For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs,
and lay [it] for a plaister upon the boil, and he shall recover.
{Isaiah 38:22} Hezekiah also had said, What [is] the sign that I shall go up
to the house of the LORD? {Isaiah 39:1} At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of
Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that
he had been sick, and was recovered. {Isaiah 39:2} And Hezekiah was glad of
them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and
the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house
of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was
nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed
them not. {Isaiah 39:3} Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said
unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And
Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country unto me, [even] from
Babylon. {Isaiah 39:4} Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And
Hezekiah answered, All that [is] in mine house have they seen: there is
nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them. {Isaiah 39:5} Then
said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts: {Isaiah 39:6}
Behold, the days come, that all that [is] in thine house, and [that]
which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be
carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD. {Isaiah 39:7} And
of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall
they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of
Babylon. {Isaiah 39:8} Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good [is] the word of the
LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace
and truth in my days. {Isaiah 40:1} Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. {Isaiah 40:2}
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare
is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received
of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins.
Isaiah 40:3
The voice of him that
crieth
in the wilderness, Prepare ye the
way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Isaiah 40:4
Every valley shall be
exalted,
and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made
straight, and the rough places
plain:
{Isaiah 40:5} And the glory of the LORD
shall be revealed, and all
flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
{Isaiah 40:6} The
voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All
flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the
field:
{Isaiah 40:7} The grass withereth, the flower
fadeth: because the
spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.
{Isaiah 40:8} The grass withereth,
the flower away : but the word of our God shall stand
for ever.
{Isaiah 40:9} O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high
mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice
with strength; lift [it] up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of
Judah, Behold your God!
{Isaiah 40:10} Behold, the Lord GOD will come with
strong [hand,] and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward [is]
with him, and his work before him. {Isaiah 40:11} He shall feed his flock like
a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry [them] in
his bosom, [and] shall gently lead those that are with young. {Isaiah 40:12} Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and
meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth
in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a
balance?
{Isaiah 40:13} Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or
being his counsellor hath taught him?
{Isaiah 40:14} With whom took
he counsel, and
[who] instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment,
and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding?
{Isaiah 40:15} Behold, the nations [are] as a drop of a bucket, and are
counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the
isles as a very little thing. {Isaiah 40:16} And Lebanon [is] not sufficient
to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering.
{Isaiah 40:17} All nations before him [are] as nothing; and they are counted
to him less than nothing, and vanity. {Isaiah 40:18} To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye
compare unto him? {Isaiah 40:19} The workman melteth a graven image, and the
goldsmith spreadeth it over with gold, and casteth silver chains.
{Isaiah 40:20} He that [is] so impoverished that he hath no oblation chooseth
a tree [that] will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to
prepare a graven image, [that] shall not be moved. {Isaiah 40:21} Have ye not
known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning?
have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? {Isaiah 40:22} [It
is] he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants
thereof [are] as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a
curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: {Isaiah 40:23} That
bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as
vanity. {Isaiah 40:24} Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be
sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall
also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall
take them away as stubble. {Isaiah 40:25} To whom then will ye liken me, or
shall I be equal? saith the Holy One. {Isaiah 40:26} Lift up your eyes on
high, and behold who hath created these [things,] that bringeth out
their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of
his might, for that [he is] strong in power; not one faileth. {Isaiah 40:27}
Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from
the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God? {Isaiah 40:28} Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, [that] the
everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth,
fainteth not, neither is weary? [there is] no searching of his
understanding. {Isaiah 40:29} He giveth power to the faint; and to [them that
have] no might he increaseth strength. {Isaiah 40:30} Even the youths shall
faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: {Isaiah 40:31} But
they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall
mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and]
they shall walk, and not faint. {Isaiah 41:1} Keep silence before me, O islands; and let the people renew
[their] strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come
near together to judgment. {Isaiah 41:2} Who raised up the righteous [man]
from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and
made [him] rule over kings? he gave [them] as the dust to his sword,
[and] as driven stubble to his bow. {Isaiah 41:3} He pursued them, [and]
passed safely; [even] by the way [that] he had not gone with his feet.
{Isaiah 41:4} Who hath
wrought and done it, calling the generations from
the beginning? I the LORD,
the first,
and with
the last;
I am he.
{Isaiah 41:5}
The isles saw [it,] and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid, drew
near, and came. {Isaiah 41:6} They helped every one his neighbour; and [every
one] said to his brother, Be of good courage. {Isaiah 41:7} So the carpenter
encouraged the goldsmith, [and] he that smootheth [with] the hammer him
that smote the anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he
fastened it with nails, [that] it should not be moved.
{Isaiah 41:8} But thou,
Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have
chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
{Isaiah 41:9} Thou
whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and
called thee from the chief men thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my
servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
{Isaiah 41:10} Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I
[am] thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I
will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. {Isaiah 41:11}
Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and
confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee
shall perish. {Isaiah 41:12} Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them,
[even] them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall
be as nothing, and as a thing of nought. {Isaiah 41:13} For I the LORD thy God
will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
{Isaiah 41:14} Fear not, thou worm Jacob, [and] ye men of Israel; I will help
thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. {Isaiah 41:15}
Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth:
thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat [them] small, and shalt make
the hills as chaff. {Isaiah 41:16} Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall
carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou shalt
rejoice in the LORD, [and] shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.
{Isaiah 41:17} [When] the poor and needy seek water, and [there is] none,
[and] their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, [I]
the God of Israel will not forsake them. {Isaiah 41:18} I will open rivers in
high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the
wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. {Isaiah 41:19}
I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the
myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, [and]
the pine, and the box tree together: {Isaiah 41:20} That they may see, and
know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD
hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. {Isaiah 41:21}
Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong [reasons,]
saith the King of Jacob. {Isaiah 41:22} Let them bring [them] forth, and shew
us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they [be,]
that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare
us things for to come.
Isaiah 41:23 Shew the things that are to come
hereafter, that we
may know that ye are gods:
yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together.
{Isaiah 41:24}
Behold, ye [are] of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination
[is he that] chooseth you. {Isaiah 41:25} I have raised up [one] from the
north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon
my name: and he shall come upon princes as [upon] morter, and as the
potter treadeth clay.
{Isaiah 41:26}
Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we
may say, He is righteous? yea, there is none
that sheweth, yea, there is none that declareth, yea, there is none that heareth
your words.
{Isaiah 41:27} The first [shall
say] to Zion, Behold, behold them: and I will give to Jerusalem one
that bringeth good tidings. {Isaiah 41:28} For I beheld, and [there was] no
man; even among them, and [there was] no counsellor, that, when I asked
of them, could answer a word. {Isaiah 41:29} Behold, they [are] all vanity;
their works [are] nothing: their molten images [are] wind and confusion.
Isaiah 42:1 Behold my
servant, whom I uphold; mine
elect,
in whom my soul delighteth;
I have
put my spirit upon him: he
shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
Isaiah 42:2 He shall not cry, nor lift up,
nor cause
his
voice to be heard
in the street.
Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and
the smoking
flax shall he not quench: he shall bring
forth judgment unto
truth.
{Isaiah 42:4} He shall not fail nor be discouraged,
till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for
his law.
{Isaiah 42:5} Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and
stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which
cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and
spirit to them that walk therein:
{Isaiah 42:6} I the LORD have
called thee in righteousness, and will
hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people,
for a light of the Gentiles;
{Isaiah 42:7}
To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison,
[and] them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. {Isaiah 42:8} I [am]
the LORD: that [is] my name: and my glory will I not give to another,
neither my praise to graven images. {Isaiah 42:9} Behold, the former things
are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth
I tell you of them. {Isaiah 42:10} Sing unto the LORD a new song, [and] his
praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all
that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. {Isaiah 42:11} Let
the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up [their voice,] the
villages [that] Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock
sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. {Isaiah 42:12} Let them
give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.
{Isaiah 42:13} The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up
jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail
against his enemies. {Isaiah 42:14} I have long time holden my peace; I have
been still, [and] refrained myself: [now] will I cry like a travailing
woman; I will destroy and devour at once. {Isaiah 42:15} I will make waste
mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the
rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools. {Isaiah 42:16} And I will bring
the blind by a way [that] they knew not; I will lead them in paths
[that] they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and
crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not
forsake them. {Isaiah 42:17} They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed,
that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye [are]
our gods. {Isaiah 42:18} Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
{Isaiah 42:19} Who [is] blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger [that]
I sent? who [is] blind as [he that is] perfect, and blind as the LORD'S
servant? {Isaiah 42:20} Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening
the ears, but he heareth not. {Isaiah 42:21} The LORD is well pleased for his
righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make [it] honourable.
{Isaiah 42:22} But this [is] a people robbed and spoiled; [they are] all of
them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a
prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
{Isaiah 42:23} Who among you will give ear to this? [who] will hearken and
hear for the time to come? {Isaiah 42:24} Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and
Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have
sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient
unto his law. {Isaiah 42:25} Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his
anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round
about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid [it] not to
heart. {Isaiah 43:1} But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and
he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I
have called [thee] by thy name; thou [art] mine. {Isaiah 43:2} When thou
passest through the waters, I [will be] with thee; and through the
rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the
fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon
thee. {Isaiah 43:3} For I [am] the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy
Saviour: I gave Egypt [for] thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
{Isaiah 43:4} Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable,
and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people
for thy life. {Isaiah 43:5} Fear not: for I [am] with thee: I will bring thy
seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; {Isaiah 43:6} I will say to
the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from
far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; {Isaiah 43:7} [Even] every
one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I
have formed him; yea, I have made him. {Isaiah 43:8} Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf
that have ears. {Isaiah 43:9} Let all the nations be gathered together, and
let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew
us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may
be justified: or let them hear, and say, [It is] truth. {Isaiah 43:10} Ye
[are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen:
that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I [am] he: before
me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. {Isaiah 43:11} I,
[even] I, [am] the LORD; and beside me [there is] no saviour. {Isaiah 43:12} I
have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when [there was] no
strange [god] among you: therefore ye [are] my witnesses, saith the
LORD, that I [am] God. {Isaiah 43:13} Yea, before the day [was] I [am] he; and
[there is] none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who
shall let it? {Isaiah 43:14} Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel;
For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their
nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry [is] in the ships. {Isaiah 43:15} I [am]
the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King. {Isaiah 43:16} Thus
saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty
waters; {Isaiah 43:17} Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army
and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they
are extinct, they are quenched as tow. {Isaiah 43:18} Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the
things of old. {Isaiah 43:19} Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall
spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the
wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert. {Isaiah 43:20} The beast of the field
shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the
wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my
chosen.
{Isaiah 43:21} This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew
forth my praise.
{Isaiah 43:22} But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast
been weary of me, O Israel.
{Isaiah 43:23} Thou hast not brought me the small
cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy
sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor
wearied thee with incense. {Isaiah 43:24} Thou hast bought me no sweet cane
with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices:
but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with
thine iniquities. {Isaiah 43:25} I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth out thy
transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
{Isaiah 43:26} Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou,
that thou mayest be justified. {Isaiah 43:27} Thy first father hath sinned,
and thy teachers have transgressed against me. {Isaiah 43:28} Therefore I have
profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the
curse, and Israel to reproaches.
{Isaiah 44:1} Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have
chosen:
Isaiah 44:2 Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb,
which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant;
and thou, Jesurun,
whom I have chosen.
{Isaiah 44:3} For I will pour water upon
him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my
spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring: {Isaiah 44:4} And
they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water
courses. {Isaiah 44:5} One shall say, I [am] the LORD'S; and another shall
call [himself] by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe [with]
his hand unto the LORD, and surname [himself] by the name of Israel.
{Isaiah 44:6}Isaiah
44:6 Thus saith
the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the
LORD of hosts; I [am] the first, and I [am] the last; and beside me
[there is] no God.
{Isaiah 44:7} And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare
it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people?
and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto
them. {Isaiah 44:8} Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from
that time, and have declared [it?] ye [are] even my witnesses. Is there
a God beside me? yea, [there is] no God; I know not [any. ]{Isaiah 44:9} They that make a graven image [are] all of them vanity; and
their delectable things shall not profit; and they [are] their own
witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed. {Isaiah 44:10}
Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image [that] is profitable
for nothing? {Isaiah 44:11} Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the
workmen, they [are] of men: let them all be gathered together, let them
stand up; [yet] they shall fear, [and] they shall be ashamed together.
{Isaiah 44:12} The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and
fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his
arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no
water, and is faint. {Isaiah 44:13} The carpenter stretcheth out [his] rule;
he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he
marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a
man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
{Isaiah 44:14} He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak,
which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he
planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish [it. ]{Isaiah 44:15} Then shall it
be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea,
he kindleth [it,] and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and
worshippeth [it;] he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down
thereto. {Isaiah 44:16} He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof
he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth
[himself,] and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire: {Isaiah 44:17} And
the residue thereof he maketh a god, [even] his graven image: he
falleth down unto it, and worshippeth [it,] and prayeth unto it, and
saith, Deliver me; for thou [art] my god. {Isaiah 44:18} They have not known
nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see;
[and] their hearts, that they cannot understand. {Isaiah 44:19} And none
considereth in his heart, neither [is there] knowledge nor
understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I
have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and
eaten [it:] and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall
I fall down to the stock of a tree? {Isaiah 44:20} He feedeth on ashes: a
deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul,
nor say, [Is there] not a lie in my right hand? {Isaiah 44:21} Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou [art] my
servant: I have formed thee; thou [art] my servant: O Israel, thou
shalt not be forgotten of me. {Isaiah 44:22} I have blotted out, as a thick
cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me;
for I have redeemed thee. {Isaiah 44:23} Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath
done [it:] shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into
singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the LORD
hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel. {Isaiah 44:24} Thus
saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I
[am] the LORD that maketh all [things;] that stretcheth forth the
heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; {Isaiah 44:25} That
frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that
turneth wise [men] backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
{Isaiah 44:26} That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the
counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be
inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will
raise up the decayed places thereof: {Isaiah 44:27} That saith to the deep, Be
dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
{Isaiah 44:28}
That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall
perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built;
and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
{Isaiah 45:1} Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right
hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the
loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates
shall not be shut; {Isaiah 45:2} I will go before thee, and make the crooked
places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in
sunder the bars of iron: {Isaiah 45:3} And I will give thee the treasures of
darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know
that I, the LORD, which call [thee] by thy name, [am] the God of
Israel. {Isaiah 45:4} For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I
have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou
hast not known me. {Isaiah 45:5} I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God
beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: {Isaiah 45:6} That
they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that
[there is] none beside me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else.
{Isaiah 45:7} I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create
evil: I the LORD do all these [things. ]{Isaiah 45:8} Drop down, ye heavens,
from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth
open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring
up together; I the LORD have created it. {Isaiah 45:9} Woe unto him that
striveth with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [strive] with the potsherds
of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest
thou? or thy work, He hath no hands? {Isaiah 45:10} Woe unto him that saith
unto [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou
brought forth? {Isaiah 45:11} Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and
his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning
the work of my hands command ye me.
{Isaiah 45:12} I
have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I
commanded.
{Isaiah 45:13} I have raised him
up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my
city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith
the LORD of hosts. {Isaiah 45:14} Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt,
and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall
come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after
thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto
thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, [saying,] Surely God [is]
in thee; and [there is] none else, [there is] no God. {Isaiah 45:15} Verily
thou [art] a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
{Isaiah 45:16} They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they
shall go to confusion together [that are] makers of idols. {Isaiah 45:17}
[But] Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation:
ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end. {Isaiah 45:18} For
thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed
the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in
vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is]
none else. {Isaiah 45:19} I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the
earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the
LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right. {Isaiah 45:20} Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye [that
are] escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the
wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god [that] cannot save.
{Isaiah 45:21}
Tell ye, and
bring them near;
yea, let
them take counsel together:
who hath
declared this from ancient time? who hath told
it from
that
time? have not I
the LORD?
and there is no
God else beside me; a
just God
and a
Saviour; there is none beside me.
{Isaiah 45:22}
Look unto me, and be
ye saved,
all the ends
of the earth: for I [am]
God, and [there is] none else.
{Isaiah 45:23}
I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out
of my
mouth in
righteousness, and
shall not return,
That unto me every knee
shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
{Isaiah 45:24} Surely,
shall [one] say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: [even]
to him shall [men] come; and all that are incensed against him shall be
ashamed. {Isaiah 45:25} In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified,
and shall glory. {Isaiah 46:1} Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the
beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages [were] heavy loaden; [they
are] a burden to the weary [beast. ]{Isaiah 46:2} They stoop, they bow down
together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone
into captivity. {Isaiah 46:3} Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the
remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne [by me] from the belly,
which are carried from the womb: {Isaiah 46:4} And [even] to [your] old age I
[am] he; and [even] to hoar hairs will I carry [you:] I have made, and
I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver [you. ]{Isaiah 46:5} To whom will ye liken me, and make [me] equal, and compare
me, that we may be like? {Isaiah 46:6} They lavish gold out of the bag, and
weigh silver in the balance, [and] hire a goldsmith; and he maketh it a
god: they fall down, yea, they worship. {Isaiah 46:7} They bear him upon the
shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he standeth;
from his place shall he not remove: yea, [one] shall cry unto him, yet
can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble. {Isaiah 46:8} Remember
this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye
transgressors. {Isaiah 46:9} Remember the former things of old: for I [am]
God, and [there is] none else; [I am] God, and [there is] none like me,
{Isaiah 46:10} Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times
[the things] that are not [yet] done, saying, My counsel shall stand,
and I will do all my pleasure: {Isaiah 46:11} Calling a ravenous bird from the
east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have
spoken [it,] I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed [it,] I will
also do it. {Isaiah 46:12} Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that [are] far from
righteousness: {Isaiah 46:13} I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be
far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation
in Zion for Israel my glory. {Isaiah 47:1} Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon,
sit on the ground: [there is] no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans:
for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate. {Isaiah 47:2} Take the
millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg,
uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. {Isaiah 47:3} Thy nakedness shall be
uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I
will not meet [thee as] a man. {Isaiah 47:4} [As for] our redeemer, the LORD
of hosts [is] his name, the Holy One of Israel. {Isaiah 47:5} Sit thou silent,
and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt
no more be called, The lady of kingdoms. {Isaiah 47:6} I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance,
and given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the
ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke. {Isaiah 47:7} And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: [so] that thou
didst not lay these [things] to thy heart, neither didst remember the
latter end of it. {Isaiah 47:8} Therefore hear now this, [thou that art] given
to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I
[am,] and none else beside me; I shall not sit [as] a widow, neither
shall I know the loss of children: {Isaiah 47:9} But these two [things] shall
come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and
widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the
multitude of thy sorceries, [and] for the great abundance of thine
enchantments. {Isaiah 47:10} For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said,
None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee;
and thou hast said in thine heart, I [am,] and none else beside me. {Isaiah 47:11} Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know
from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt
not be able to put if off: and desolation shall come upon thee
suddenly, [which] thou shalt not know. {Isaiah 47:12} Stand now with thine
enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou
hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if
so be thou mayest prevail. {Isaiah 47:13} Thou art wearied in the multitude of
thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly
prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from [these things] that shall
come upon thee. {Isaiah 47:14} Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire
shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of
the flame: [there shall] not [be] a coal to warm at, [nor] fire to sit
before it. {Isaiah 47:15} Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast
laboured, [even] thy merchants, from thy youth: they shall wander every
one to his quarter; none shall save thee.
{Isaiah 48:1}
Hear ye
this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are
come forth out of the waters of Judah,
which swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel, but
not in truth, nor in righteousness.
{Isaiah 48:2} For
they call themselves of
the holy city, and
stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of
hosts [is] his name.
{Isaiah 48:3}
I have declared the former things from the
beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I
did [them] suddenly, and they came to pass.
{Isaiah 48:4}
Because I knew that
thou [art] obstinate, and thy neck [is] an iron sinew, and thy brow
brass;
{Isaiah 48:5}
I have even from the beginning declared
[it]
to thee;
before it came to pass I shewed [it]
thee: lest thou shouldest say,
Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image,
hath commanded them.
{Isaiah 48:6}
Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not
ye declare [it?]
I have shewed thee new things from this time, even
hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
{Isaiah 48:7}
They are created
now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest
them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
{Isaiah 48:8}
Yea,
thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time [that]
thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very
treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
{Isaiah 48:9}
For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise
will I refrain for
thee, that I cut thee not off.
{Isaiah 48:10}
Behold, I
have refined thee, but not with silver;
I have chosen thee in the
furnace of affliction.
{Isaiah 48:11}
For mine own sake, [even]
for mine own
sake, will I do [it:]
for how should [my name]
be polluted?
and I will
not give my glory unto another.
{Isaiah 48:12}Isaiah
48:12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called;
I [am] he; I
[am] the first, I also [am] the last.
{Isaiah 48:13}
Mine hand also hath laid
the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the
heavens: [when]
I call unto them, they stand up together.
{Isaiah 48:14}
All
ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these
[things?] The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon,
and his arm [shall be on]
the Chaldeans.
{Isaiah 48:15}
I, [even]
I, have
spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make
his way prosperous.
{Isaiah 48:16}
Come ye near unto me, hear ye this;
I have not spoken in
secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there
[am] I, and
now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
{Isaiah 48:17}
Thus saith the
LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I [am]
the LORD thy God
which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way [that]
thou shouldest go.
{Isaiah 48:18}
O that thou hadst hearkened to my
commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness
as the waves of the sea:
{Isaiah 48:19}
Thy seed also had been as the sand,
and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name
should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
{Isaiah 48:20}
Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a
voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it [even]
to the end of
the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
{Isaiah 48:21}
And they thirsted not
[when]
he led them through the deserts: he caused
the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also,
and the waters gushed out
{Isaiah 48:22} [There is]
no peace, saith the LORD,
unto the wicked.
{Isaiah 49:1}
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from
far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of
my mother hath he made mention of my name.
{Isaiah 49:2}
And
he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the
shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his
quiver hath he hid me;
{Isaiah 49:3}
And said unto me,
Thou [art] my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
{Isaiah 49:4}
Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for
nought, and in vain: [yet]
surely my judgment [is] with the LORD, and
my work with my God.
{Isaiah 49:5}
And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb [to be]
his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God
shall be my strength.
Isaiah 49:6
Isaiah 49:6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou
shouldest be
my
servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel:
I will also give thee for
a light to
the Gentiles,
that thou
mayest be
my salvation unto the end of the earth.
{Isaiah 49:7}
Thus saith the LORD, the
Redeemer of Israel, [and]
his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth,
to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a
servant of rulers, Kings shall see and
arise, princes also shall worship, because of the LORD that is faithful,
[and] the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.
{Isaiah 49:8}Isaiah
49:8 Thus
saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard
thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee:
and I will preserve
thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the
earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;
{Isaiah 49:9}
That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to
them that [are] in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the
ways, and their pastures [shall be] in all high places.
{Isaiah 49:10}
{Isaiah 49:10}
They
shall not hunger nor thirst;
neither shall the heat nor sun smite them:
for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of
water shall he guide them.
{Isaiah 49:11}
And I will make all my mountains a
way, and my highways shall be exalted.
{Isaiah 49:12}
Behold, these shall come
from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these
from the land of Sinim.
{Isaiah 49:13}
Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth
into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and
will have mercy upon his afflicted.
{Isaiah 49:14}
But Zion said, The LORD
hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.
{Isaiah 49:15}
Can a woman
forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the
son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
{Isaiah 49:16}
Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of [my] hands; thy
walls [are] continually before me.
{Isaiah 49:17}
Thy children shall make
haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of
thee.
{Isaiah 49:18}
Lift up thine eyes
round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together,
[and] come to
thee. [As]
I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with
them all, as with an ornament, and bind them [on thee,]
as a bride
[doeth.]
{Isaiah 49:19}
For thy waste and thy
desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too
narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up
shall be far away.
{Isaiah 49:20}
The children which thou shalt have, after
thou hast lost the other,
shall say again in thine ears, The place
[is]
too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell.
{Isaiah 49:21}
Then
shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I
have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and
fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these,
where [had]
they [been?]
{Isaiah 49:22}
Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I
will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the
people: and they shall bring thy sons in [their]
arms, and thy
daughters shall be carried upon [their]
shoulders.
{Isaiah 49:23}
And kings
shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers:
they shall bow down to thee with [their]
face toward the earth, and
lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I [am]
the LORD:
for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
{Isaiah 49:24}
Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful
captive delivered?
{Isaiah 49:25}
But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives
of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall
be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee,
and I will save thy children.
{Isaiah 49:26}
And I will feed them that oppress
thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own
blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD
[am] thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
{Isaiah 50:1}
Thus saith the LORD,
Where
[is] the bill of your mother's
divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors [is it] to
whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold
yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
{Isaiah 50:2}
Wherefore, when I came,
[was there]
no man? when I called,
[was there]
none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or
have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I
make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because [there is]
no water, and dieth for thirst.
{Isaiah 50:3}
I clothe the heavens with
blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
{Isaiah 50:4}
The Lord GOD
hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to
speak a word in season to [him that is]
weary: he wakeneth morning by
morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
{Isaiah 50:5}
The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious,
neither turned away back.
{Isaiah 50:6}
I gave my back to the smiters,
and my
cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame
and spitting.
{Isaiah 50:7}
For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be
confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that
I shall not be ashamed.
{Isaiah 50:8} [He is]
near that
justifieth me; who
will contend with me? let us stand together: who [is]
mine adversary?
let him come near to me.
{Isaiah 50:9}
Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who
[is] he [that]
shall condemn me? lo,
they all shall wax old as a
garment; the moth shall eat them up.
{Isaiah 50:10}
Who [is]
among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the
voice of his servant, that walketh [in]
darkness, and hath no light?
let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
{Isaiah 50:11}
Behold, all ye that kindle
a fire, that compass
[yourselves]
about with
sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks [that]
ye
have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in
sorrow.
{Isaiah 51:1}
Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness,
ye that
seek the LORD: look unto the rock
[whence]
ye are hewn, and to the hole
of the pit [whence]
ye are digged.
{Isaiah 51:2}
Look unto Abraham your
father, and unto Sarah [that]
bare you: for I called him alone, and
blessed him, and increased him. .
{Isaiah 51:3}
For the LORD shall comfort Zion:
he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness
like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness
shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
{Isaiah 51:4}
Hearken unto me, my people; and give ear unto me, O my
nation: for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my judgment to
rest for a light of
the people.
{Isaiah 51:5}
My righteousness
[is] near; my
salvation is gone forth, and mine arms
shall judge the people; the
isles shall wait upon me, and on mine arm shall they trust.
{Isaiah 51:6}
Lift
up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the
heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like
a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my
salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be
abolished.
{Isaiah 51:7}
Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in
whose heart [is]
my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye
afraid of their revilings
{Isaiah 51:8}
For the moth shall eat them up like a
garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness
shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
{Isaiah 51:9}
Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as
in the ancient days, in the generations of old. [Art]
thou not
it that
hath cut Rahab, [and]
wounded the dragon?
{Isaiah 51:10} [Art]
thou not
it
which hath dried the sea, the waters of the great deep; that hath made
the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to pass over?
{Isaiah 51:11}
Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing
unto Zion; and everlasting joy [shall be]
upon their head: they shall
obtain gladness and joy; [and]
sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
{Isaiah 51:12}
I, [even]
I [am]
he that comforteth you: who
[art]
thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of
a
man [that]
shall die, and of the son of
man [which]
shall be made as grass;
{Isaiah 51:13}
And forgettest the LORD thy
maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations
of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury
of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where [is]
the
fury of the oppressor?
{Isaiah 51:14}
The captive exile hasteneth that he may
be loosed, and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread
should fail.
{Isaiah 51:15}
But I [am]
the LORD thy God,
that divided the sea,
whose waves roared; the Lord of Hosts
[is] his
name.
{Isaiah 51:16}
And I have
put my words in thy mouth, and I
have covered thee in the shadow of
mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the
earth, and say unto Zion,
Thou [art]
my people.
{Isaiah 51:17}
Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the
hand of the LORD the cup of his fury; thou hast drunken the dregs of
the cup of trembling, [and]
wrung [them]
out.
{Isaiah 51:18} [There is]
none
to guide her among all the sons [whom]
she hath brought forth; neither
[is there any]
that taketh her by the hand of all the sons
[that]
she hath brought up.
{Isaiah 51:19}
These two
[things] are come unto thee; who
shall be sorry for thee? desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword:
by whom shall I comfort thee?
{Isaiah 51:20}
Thy sons have
fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a
net: they are full of the fury of the LORD, the rebuke of thy God.
{Isaiah 51:21}
Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken,
but
not with wine:
{Isaiah 51:22}
Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God
[that]
pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thine
hand the cup of trembling, [even]
the dregs
of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again:
{Isaiah 51:23}
But I will put it into the hand
of them that afflict thee; which have said to thy soul, Bow down, that
we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the
street, to them that went over.
{Isaiah 52:1}
Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy
beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there
shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
{Isaiah 52:2}
Shake thyself from the dust; arise,
[and]
sit down, O Jerusalem: loose
thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
{Isaiah 52:3}For thus saith the LORD, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye
shall be redeemed without money.
{Isaiah 52:4} For thus saith the Lord GOD, My
people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the
Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
{Isaiah 52:5} Now
therefore, what have I here, saith the LORD, that my
people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to
howl, saith the LORD; and my name continually every day is blasphemed.
{Isaiah 52:6} Therefore my people shall
know my name: therefore [they shall know] in that day that I [am] he
that doth speak: behold, [it is] I.
{Isaiah 52:7} How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace;
that bringeth good
tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy
God reigneth!
{Isaiah 52:8}
Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the
voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the
LORD shall bring again Zion.
{Isaiah 52:9}
Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of
Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed
Jerusalem.
{Isaiah 52:10}
The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of
all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation
of our God.
{Isaiah 52:11}
Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no
unclean thing; go ye out of the
midst of her;
be ye clean,
that bear
the vessels
of the LORD.
{Isaiah 52:12}
For ye shall not go out with haste,
nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you; and the God of
Israel [will be]
your rearward.
{Isaiah 52:13}
Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted
and extolled, and be very high.
{Isaiah 52:14}
As many were astonied at thee;
his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the
sons of men:
{Isaiah 52:15}
So
shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut
their mouths at him:
for that which had not been told them shall they
see;
and that which they had not heard shall they consider.
Isaiah 53:1
Who hath believed our report? and
to whom is the arm of the
LORD revealed?
{Isaiah 53:2}
For he shall grow up before him as a tender
plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor
comeliness; and when we shall see him, [there is]
no beauty that we
should desire him.
{Isaiah 53:3}
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of
sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were [our]
faces from him; he was despised, and we
esteemed him not.
{Isaiah 53:4} Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did
esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted
{Isaiah 53:5} But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we
are healed
{Isaiah 53:6}
All we, like sheep, have gone astray; we have turned every one to his
own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquities of us all
{Isaiah 53:7}
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; he
is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is
dumb so he opened not his mouth
{Isaiah 53:8}
He was taken from prison and from judgment; and who shall declare his
generation? For he was cut off out of the land of the living; for the
transgressions of my people was he stricken
{Isaiah 53:9}
And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich
in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was
any deceit in his mouth.
{Isaiah 53:10}
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put
[him]
to
grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see
[his] seed, he shall prolong
[his]
days, and the pleasure of the LORD
shall prosper in his hand.
{Isaiah 53:11}
He shall see of the travail of his
soul, [and]
shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous
servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
Isaiah 53:12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he
shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto
death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and
he bare the sin of
many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Isaiah 53:12 Therefore will I
divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the
strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death:
and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many,
and made intercession for the transgressors.
{Isaiah
54:1} Sing, O barren, thou
that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst
not travail with child; for more are the children of the desolate than the
children of the married wife, saith the Lord.
{Isaiah 54:2}
Enlarge the place of thy tent, and
let them stretch forth the curtains of thine
habitations: spare not,
lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;
{Isaiah 54:3}
For thou shalt
break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall
inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
{Isaiah 54:4}
Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou
confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget
the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy
widowhood any more.
{Isaiah 54:5}
For thy Maker
[is] thine husband; the LORD
of hosts [is]
his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The
God of the whole earth shall he be called.
{Isaiah 54:6}
For the LORD hath
called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of
youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.
{Isaiah 54:7}
For a small moment
have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
{Isaiah 54:8}
In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with
everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy
Redeemer.
{Isaiah 54:9}
For this
[is as] the waters of Noah unto me: for
[as]
I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth;
so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
{Isaiah 54:10}
For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but
my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of
my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.
{Isaiah 54:11}
O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest,
[and]
not comforted,
behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colors, and lay thy foundations
with sapphires.
{Isaiah 54:12}
And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy
gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.
{Isaiah
54:13} And all thy
children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy
children.
{Isaiah 54:14}
In righteousness shalt thou be
established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not
fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
{Isaiah 54:15}
Behold,
they shall surely gather together, [but]
not by me: whosoever shall
gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
{Isaiah 54:16}
Behold, I
have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that
bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the
waster to destroy.
{Isaiah 54:17}
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and
every tongue [that]
shall rise
against thee in judgment thou shalt
condemn. This [is]
the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their
righteousness [is]
of me, saith
the Lord.
{Isaiah 55:1} Ho,
every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he
that hath no money; come ye,
buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
{Isaiah 55:2}
Wherefore do
ye spend money for
[that which is]
not bread?
and your labour for
[that which]
satisfieth
not?
hearken diligently unto me, and eat
ye [that which is] good,
and
let your soul delight itself
in fatness.
{Isaiah 55:3}
Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will
make an everlasting covenant with you, even the
sure mercies of David.
{Isaiah 55:4}
Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the people, a leader and
commander to the people. {Isaiah 55:5} Behold, thou shalt call a nation [that]
thou knowest not, and nations [that] knew not thee shall run unto thee
because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he
hath glorified thee. {Isaiah 55:6} Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him
while he is near: {Isaiah 55:7} Let the wicked forsake his way, and the
unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he
will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. {Isaiah 55:8} For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your
ways my ways, saith the LORD. {Isaiah 55:9} For [as] the heavens are higher
than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts
than your thoughts. {Isaiah 55:10} For as the rain cometh down, and the snow
from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and
maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and
bread to the eater: {Isaiah 55:11} So shall my word be that goeth forth out of
my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish
that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent
it. {Isaiah 55:12} For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace:
the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing,
and all the trees of the field shall clap [their] hands. {Isaiah 55:13}
Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the
brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a
name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off. {Isaiah 56:1} Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my
salvation [is] near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
{Isaiah 56:2} Blessed [is] the man [that] doeth this, and the son of man
[that] layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it,
and keepeth his hand from doing any evil. {Isaiah 56:3} Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself
to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his
people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I [am] a dry tree. {Isaiah 56:4}
For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and
choose [the things] that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
{Isaiah 56:5} Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a
place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them
an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off. {Isaiah 56:6} Also the sons of
the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to
love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth
the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
Isaiah 56:7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in
my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be
accepted upon mine altar; for mine house
shall be called an house of
prayer for all
people.
{Isaiah 56:8} The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts
of Israel saith, Yet will I gather [others] to him, beside those that
are gathered unto him. {Isaiah 56:9} All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, [yea,] all ye
beasts in the forest. {Isaiah 56:10} His watchmen [are] blind: they are all
ignorant, they [are] all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying
down, loving to slumber. {Isaiah 56:11} Yea, [they are] greedy dogs [which]
can never have enough, and they [are] shepherds [that] cannot
understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain,
from his quarter. {Isaiah 56:12} Come ye, [say they,] I will fetch wine, and
we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as
this day, [and] much more abundant. {Isaiah 57:1} The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth [it] to heart: and
merciful men [are] taken away, none considering that the righteous is
taken away from the evil [to come. ]{Isaiah 57:2} He shall enter into peace:
they shall rest in their beds, [each one] walking [in] his uprightness. {Isaiah 57:3} But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of
the adulterer and the whore. {Isaiah 57:4} Against whom do ye sport
yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, [and] draw out the
tongue? [are] ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,
{Isaiah 57:5} Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying
the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks? {Isaiah 57:6} Among
the smooth [stones] of the stream [is] thy portion; they, they [are]
thy lot: even to them hast thou poured a drink offering, thou hast
offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these? {Isaiah 57:7} Upon
a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither wentest
thou up to offer sacrifice. {Isaiah 57:8} Behind the doors also and the posts
hast thou set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered [thyself to
another] than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made
thee [a covenant] with them; thou lovedst their bed where thou sawest
[it. ]{Isaiah 57:9} And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst
increase thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst
debase [thyself even] unto hell. {Isaiah 57:10} Thou art wearied in the
greatness of thy way; [yet] saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou
hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast not grieved.
{Isaiah 57:11} And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast
lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid [it] to thy heart? have not
I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not? {Isaiah 57:12} I will
declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit
thee. {Isaiah 57:13} When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the
wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take [them:] but he that
putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my
holy mountain; {Isaiah 57:14} And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare
the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.
{Isaiah 57:15} For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity,
whose name [is] Holy; I dwell in the high and holy [place,] with him
also [that is] of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of
the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. {Isaiah 57:16} For I
will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the
spirit should fail before me, and the souls [which] I have made.
{Isaiah 57:17} For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote
him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of
his heart. {Isaiah 57:18} I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead
him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.
{Isaiah 57:19} I
create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him
that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will
heal him.
{Isaiah 57:20}
But the wicked [are] like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose
waters cast up mire and dirt. {Isaiah 57:21} [There is] no peace, saith my
God, to the wicked. {Isaiah 58:1} Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and
shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
{Isaiah 58:2} Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation
that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God:
they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in
approaching to God. {Isaiah 58:3} Wherefore have we fasted, [say they,] and thou seest not?
[wherefore] have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge?
Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your
labours. {Isaiah 58:4} Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite
with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as [ye do this] day, to
make your voice to be heard on high. {Isaiah 58:5} Is it such a fast that I
have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? [is it] to bow down
his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes [under him?]
wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? {Isaiah 58:6}
[Is] not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of
wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go
free, and that ye break every yoke? {Isaiah 58:7} [Is it] not to deal thy
bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to
thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that
thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? {Isaiah 58:8} Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine
health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go
before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. {Isaiah 58:9} Then
shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he
shall say, Here I [am.] If thou take away from the midst of thee the
yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; {Isaiah 58:10} And
[if] thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted
soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness [be] as
the noonday: {Isaiah 58:11} And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and
satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be
like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail
not. {Isaiah 58:12} And [they that shall be] of thee shall build the old waste
places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and
thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths
to dwell in. {Isaiah 58:13} If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, [from] doing
thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy
of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own
ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking [thine own] words:
{Isaiah 58:14} Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause
thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the
heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken [it. ]{Isaiah 59:1} Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot
save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: {Isaiah 59:2} But your
iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have
hid [his] face from you, that he will not hear. {Isaiah 59:3} For your hands
are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have
spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. {Isaiah 59:4} None
calleth for justice, nor [any] pleadeth for truth: they trust in
vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth
iniquity. {Isaiah 59:5} They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's
web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed
breaketh out into a viper. {Isaiah 59:6} Their webs shall not become garments,
neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works [are]
works of iniquity, and the act of violence [is] in their hands.
{Isaiah 59:7}Their feet
run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
wasting and destruction are in their paths.
{Isaiah 59:8} The way of peace they know not; and
there is no judgment
in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth
therein shall not know peace.
{Isaiah 59:9} Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice
overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness,
[but] we walk in darkness. {Isaiah 59:10} We grope for the wall like the
blind, and we grope as if [we had] no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in
the night; [we are] in desolate places as dead [men. ]{Isaiah 59:11} We roar
all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but
[there is] none; for salvation, [but] it is far off from us. {Isaiah 59:12}
For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify
against us: for our transgressions [are] with us; and [as for] our
iniquities, we know them; {Isaiah 59:13} In transgressing and lying against
the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and
revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
{Isaiah 59:14} And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar
off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
{Isaiah 59:15} Yea, truth faileth; and he [that] departeth from evil maketh
himself a prey: and the LORD saw [it,] and it displeased him that
[there was] no judgment. {Isaiah 59:16} And he saw that [there was] no man, and wondered that [there
was] no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and
his righteousness, it sustained him.
{Isaiah 59:17}
For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of
salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
{Isaiah 59:18} According to [their] deeds,
accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his
enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence. {Isaiah 59:19} So shall they
fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising
of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of
the LORD shall lift up a standard against him. {Isaiah 59:20} And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and
unto them that
turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.{Isaiah 59:21} As for me,
this is my covenant with them, saith the
LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy
mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy
seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from
henceforth and for ever. {Isaiah 60:1}
Arise,
shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon
thee.
{Isaiah 60:2} For, behold, the darkness shall cover
the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon
thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. {Isaiah 60:3} And the Gentiles
shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
{Isaiah 60:4} Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather
themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far,
and thy daughters shall be nursed at [thy] side. {Isaiah 60:5} Then thou shalt
see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged;
because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the
forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee. {Isaiah 60:6} The multitude of
camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they
from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they
shall shew forth the praises of the LORD. {Isaiah 60:7} All the flocks of
Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall
minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar,
and I will glorify the house of my glory. {Isaiah 60:8} Who [are] these [that]
fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows? {Isaiah 60:9} Surely the
isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy
sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of
the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath
glorified thee. {Isaiah 60:10} And the sons of strangers shall build up thy
walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I
smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee. {Isaiah 60:11}
Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut
day nor night; that [men] may bring unto thee the forces of the
Gentiles, and [that] their kings [may be] brought. {Isaiah 60:12} For the
nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, [those]
nations shall be utterly wasted. {Isaiah 60:13} The glory of Lebanon shall
come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to
beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my
feet glorious. {Isaiah 60:14} The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall
come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow
themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The
city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel. {Isaiah 60:15} Whereas
thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through [thee,]
I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
{Isaiah 60:16} Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck
the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD [am] thy
Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. {Isaiah 60:17} For brass I
will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass,
and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thine
exactors righteousness. {Isaiah 60:18} Violence shall no more be heard in thy
land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call
thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
{Isaiah 60:19}
the sun shall be no more thy
light by day;
neither for brightness shall the moon
give light unto thee: but
the Lord shall be unto thee an everlasting light,
and thy
God thy glory.
{Isaiah 60:20} Thy
sun shall no more go down; neither shall
thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting
light, and the
days of thy mourning shall be ended.
{Isaiah 60:21} Thy people
also [shall be] all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be
glorified.
{Isaiah 60:22} A little one shall become a thousand, and a small
one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time.
Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord
GOD is upon me; because
the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he
hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the
captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
Isaiah 61:2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of
vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
{Isaiah 61:3} To appoint unto them that mourn in
Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning,
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be
called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might
be glorified. {Isaiah 61:4} And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the
former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the
desolations of many generations. {Isaiah 61:5} And strangers shall stand and
feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien [shall be] your plowmen and
your vinedressers. {Isaiah 61:6} But ye shall be named the Priests of the
LORD: [men] shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the
riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves. {Isaiah 61:7} For your shame [ye shall have] double; and [for] confusion
they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall
possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them. {Isaiah 61:8} For I
the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will
direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant
with them. {Isaiah 61:9} And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and
their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge
them, that they [are] the seed [which] the LORD hath blessed. {Isaiah 61:10} I
will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God;
for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered
me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh [himself]
with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth [herself] with her jewels.
{Isaiah 61:11} For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden
causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD
will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the
nations. {Isaiah 62:1} For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's
sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as
brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp [that] burneth. {Isaiah 62:2}
And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory:
and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD
shall name. {Isaiah 62:3} Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of
the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God. {Isaiah 62:4} Thou shalt
no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed
Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for
the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. {Isaiah 62:5} For [as] a young man marrieth a virgin, [so] shall thy sons
marry thee: and [as] the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, [so]
shall thy God rejoice over thee. {Isaiah 62:6} I have set watchmen upon thy
walls, O Jerusalem, [which] shall never hold their peace day nor night:
ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence, {Isaiah 62:7} And give him
no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the
earth. {Isaiah 62:8} The LORD hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of
his strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn [to be] meat for
thine enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine,
for the which thou hast laboured: {Isaiah 62:9} But they that have gathered it
shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have brought it
together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness. {Isaiah 62:10} Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the
people; cast up, cast up the highways; gather out the stones; lift up a
standard for the people.
{Isaiah 62:11}
Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the
daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation
cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and
his work before him.
{Isaiah 62:12} And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of
the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.
{Isaiah 63:1} Who
[is] this
that cometh from Edom,
with dyed garments from Bozrah? this [that is] glorious in
his apparel, travelling in the
greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
{Isaiah 63:2}
Wherefore [art thou] red in thine apparel, and
thy garments like
him that treadeth in the winefat?
{Isaiah 63:3} I have
trodden the winepress alone; and of
the people [there was] none with me:
for I will tread them in mine
anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my
garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
{Isaiah 63:1} Who [is] this
that
cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this [that is] glorious in
his apparel, travelling in the
greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to
save.
{Isaiah 63:2} Wherefore [art thou] red in thine apparel, and
thy garments like
him that treadeth in the winefat?
{Isaiah 63:3} I have trodden
the winepress alone; and of the people [there was] none with me:
for I
will tread them in mine anger, and trample them
in my fury; and their
blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my
raiment.
{Isaiah 63:4}
For the day of vengeance [is] in mine heart, and the
year of my redeemed is come.
{Isaiah 63:5} And I looked, and [there was] none
to help; and I wondered that [there was] none to uphold: therefore mine
own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
{Isaiah 63:6} And I
will tread down the people in mine
anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and
I will bring down their strength to the earth.
{Isaiah 63:7} I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, [and] the
praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on
us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath
bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the
multitude of his lovingkindnesses. {Isaiah 63:8} For he said, Surely they
[are] my people, children [that] will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
{Isaiah 63:9} In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his
presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and
he bare them, and carried them all the days of old. {Isaiah 63:10} But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he
was turned to be their enemy, [and] he fought against them. {Isaiah 63:11}
Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, [and] his people, [saying,]
Where [is] he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of
his flock? where [is] he that put his holy Spirit within him? {Isaiah 63:12}
That led [them] by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm,
dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
{Isaiah 63:13} That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness,
[that] they should not stumble? {Isaiah 63:14} As a beast goeth down into the
valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead
thy people, to make thyself a glorious name. {Isaiah 63:15} Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy
holiness and of thy glory: where [is] thy zeal and thy strength, the
sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they
restrained? {Isaiah 63:16} Doubtless thou [art] our father, though Abraham be
ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, [art] our
father, our redeemer; thy name [is] from everlasting. {Isaiah 63:17} O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, [and]
hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the
tribes of thine inheritance. {Isaiah 63:18} The people of thy holiness have
possessed [it] but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down
thy sanctuary. {Isaiah 63:19} We are [thine:] thou never barest rule over
them; they were not called by thy name. {Isaiah 64:1} Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest
come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence, {Isaiah 64:2}
As [when] the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to
boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, [that] the nations
may tremble at thy presence! {Isaiah 64:3} When thou didst terrible things
[which] we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down
at thy presence.
{Isaiah 64:4}
For since the beginning
of the world men
have not heard,
nor
perceived by the ear,
neither hath the eye
seen, O
God, beside thee, what
he hath prepared for
him that waiteth for him.
{Isaiah 64:5} Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness,
[those that] remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we
have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved. {Isaiah 64:6} But
we are all as an unclean [thing,] and all our righteousnesses [are] as
filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the
wind, have taken us away. {Isaiah 64:7} And [there is] none that calleth upon
thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast
hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
{Isaiah 64:8} But now, O LORD, thou [art] our father; we [are] the clay, and
thou our potter; and we all [are] the work of thy hand. {Isaiah 64:9} Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for
ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we [are] all thy people. {Isaiah 64:10}
Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a
desolation. {Isaiah 64:11} Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers
praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are
laid waste. {Isaiah 64:12} Wilt thou refrain thyself for these [things,] O
LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
{Isaiah 65:1} I am
sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation
that was not called by my name.
Isaiah 65:1 I am sought of them
that asked not for me;
I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation
that was not called by my name.
{Isaiah 65:2} I have spread out my hands all
the day unto a rebellious
people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own
thoughts;
{Isaiah 65:3} A people that provoketh me to
anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth
incense upon altars of brick; {Isaiah 65:4} Which remain among the graves, and
lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of
abominable [things is in] their vessels; {Isaiah 65:5} Which say, Stand by
thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. [These] are a
smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. {Isaiah 65:6} Behold, [it
is] written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense,
even recompense into their bosom, {Isaiah 65:7} Your iniquities, and the
iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned
incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore
will I measure their former work into their bosom. {Isaiah 65:8} Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster,
and [one] saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing [is] in it: so will I
do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all. {Isaiah 65:9} And
I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor
of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall
dwell there. {Isaiah 65:10} And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the
valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people
that have sought me. {Isaiah 65:11} But ye [are] they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy
mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the
drink offering unto that number. {Isaiah 65:12} Therefore will I number you to
the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I
called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil
before mine eyes, and did choose [that] wherein I delighted not.
{Isaiah 65:13} Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall
eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye
shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be
ashamed: {Isaiah 65:14} Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but
ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of
spirit. {Isaiah 65:15} And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my
chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by
another name: {Isaiah 65:16} That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall
bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth
shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are
forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
{Isaiah
65:17} For,
behold, I
create
new heavens and a new earth:
and the
former shall
not
be remembered, nor
come into mind.
{Isaiah 65:18} But be ye
glad and rejoice for ever [in that] which I create: for, behold, I
create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. {Isaiah 65:19} And I will
rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping
shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. {Isaiah 65:20} There
shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not
filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the
sinner [being] an hundred years old shall be accursed. {Isaiah 65:21} And they
shall build houses, and inhabit [them;] and they shall plant vineyards,
and eat the fruit of them. {Isaiah 65:22} They shall not build, and another
inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a
tree [are] the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the
work of their hands. {Isaiah 65:23} They shall not labour in vain, nor bring
forth for trouble; for they [are] the seed of the blessed of the LORD,
and their offspring with them. {Isaiah 65:24} And it shall come to pass, that
before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I
will hear. {Isaiah 65:25} The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the
lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust [shall be] the
serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy
mountain, saith the LORD.
{Isaiah 66:1}
Isaiah 66:1 Thus
saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the
earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and
where is the place of my rest?
{Isaiah 66:2}Isaiah
66:2 For
all those
things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the
LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a
contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
{Isaiah 66:3} He that killeth an ox
[is as if] he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, [as if] he cut
off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, [as if he offered]
swine's blood; he that burneth incense, [as if] he blessed an idol.
Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in
their abominations. {Isaiah 66:4} I also will choose their delusions, and will
bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer;
when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes,
and chose [that] in which I delighted not. {Isaiah 66:5} Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; your
brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said,
Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they
shall be ashamed. {Isaiah 66:6} A voice of noise from the city, a voice from
the temple, a voice of the LORD that rendereth recompence to his
enemies. {Isaiah 66:7} Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her
pain came, she was delivered of a man child. {Isaiah 66:8} Who hath heard such
a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring
forth in one day? [or] shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as
Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. {Isaiah 66:9} Shall I bring to
the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause
to bring forth, and shut [the womb?] saith thy God. {Isaiah 66:10} Rejoice ye
with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for
joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: {Isaiah 66:11} That ye may suck, and
be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk
out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. {Isaiah 66:12} For thus
saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and
the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye
shall be borne upon [her] sides, and be dandled upon [her] knees.
{Isaiah 66:13} As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and
ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. {Isaiah 66:14} And when ye see [this,]
your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb:
and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants, and [his]
indignation toward his enemies.
{Isaiah 66:15}
For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with
his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his
rebuke with flames of fire.
{Isaiah 66:16} For by fire and
by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the
LORD shall be many. {Isaiah 66:17} They that sanctify themselves, and purify
themselves in the gardens behind one [tree] in the midst, eating
swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed
together, saith the LORD. {Isaiah 66:18} For I [know] their works and their
thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues;
and they shall come, and see my glory. {Isaiah 66:19} And I will set a sign
among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations,
[to] Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, [to] Tubal, and Javan,
[to] the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen
my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles. {Isaiah 66:20}
And they shall bring all your brethren [for] an offering unto the LORD
out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and
upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith
the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel
into the house of the LORD. {Isaiah 66:21} And I will also take of them for
priests [and] for Levites, saith the LORD.
{Isaiah 66:22} For as the new
heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me,
saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. {Isaiah 66:23} And it
shall come to pass, [that] from one new moon to another, and from one
sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith
the LORD.
{Isaiah 66:24}
And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have
transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die,
neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring
unto all flesh.
