Isaiah 24:1--27:13

Behold, the LORD
<03068>
maketh the earth
<0776>
empty
<01238> (8802)_,
and maketh it waste
<01110> (8802)_,
and turneth
<05753> (8765)
it upside down
<06440>_,
and scattereth abroad
<06327> (8689)
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof. {turneth...: Heb. perverteth the face thereof}
And it shall be, as with the people
<05971>_,
so with the priest
<03548>_;
as with the servant
<05650>_,
so with his master
<0113>_;
as with the maid
<08198>_,
so with her mistress
<01404>_;
as with the buyer
<07069> (8802)_,
so with the seller
<04376> (8802)_;
as with the lender
<03867> (8688)_,
so with the borrower
<03867> (8801)_;
as with the taker of usury
<05383> (8802)_,
so
<0834>
with the giver of usury
<05378> (8801)
to him. {priest: or, prince}
The land
<0776>
shall be utterly
<01238> (8736)
emptied
<01238> (8735)_,
and utterly
<0962> (8736)
spoiled
<0962> (8735)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
this word
<01697>_.
The earth
<0776>
mourneth
<056> (8804)
[and] fadeth away
<05034> (8804)_,
the world
<08398>
languisheth
<0535> (8797)
[and] fadeth away
<05034> (8804)_,
the haughty
<04791>
people
<05971>
of the earth
<0776>
do languish
<0535> (8797)_.
{the haughty...: Heb. the height of the people}
The earth
<0776>
also is defiled
<02610> (8804)
under the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof; because they have transgressed
<05674> (8804)
the laws
<08451>_,
changed
<02498> (8804)
the ordinance
<02706>_,
broken
<06565> (8689)
the everlasting
<05769>
covenant
<01285>_.
Therefore hath the curse
<0423>
devoured
<0398> (8804)
the earth
<0776>_,
and they that dwell
<03427> (8802)
therein are desolate
<0816> (8799)_:
therefore the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the earth
<0776>
are burned
<02787> (8804)_,
and few
<04213>
men
<0582>
left
<07604> (8738)_.
The new wine
<08492>
mourneth
<056> (8804)_,
the vine
<01612>
languisheth
<0535> (8797)_,
all the merryhearted
<08056> <03820>
do sigh
<0584> (8738)_.
The mirth
<04885>
of tabrets
<08596>
ceaseth
<07673> (8804)_,
the noise
<07588>
of them that rejoice
<05947>
endeth
<02308> (8804)_,
the joy
<04885>
of the harp
<03658>
ceaseth
<07673> (8804)_.
They shall not drink
<08354> (8799)
wine
<03196>
with a song
<07892>_;
strong drink
<07941>
shall be bitter
<04843> (8799)
to them that drink
<08354> (8802)
it.
The city
<07151>
of confusion
<08414>
is broken down
<07665> (8738)_:
every house
<01004>
is shut up
<05462> (8795)_,
that no man may come in
<0935> (8800)_.
[There is] a crying
<06682>
for wine
<03196>
in the streets
<02351>_;
all joy
<08057>
is darkened
<06150> (8804)_,
the mirth
<04885>
of the land
<0776>
is gone
<01540> (8804)_.
In the city
<05892>
is left
<07604> (8738)
desolation
<08047>_,
and the gate
<08179>
is smitten
<03807> (8714)
with destruction
<07591>_.
When thus it shall be in the midst
<07130>
of the land
<0776>
among
<08432>
the people
<05971>_,
[there shall be] as the shaking
<05363>
of an olive tree
<02132>_,
[and] as the gleaning grapes
<05955>
when the vintage
<01210>
is done
<03615> (8804)_.
They shall lift up
<05375> (8799)
their voice
<06963>_,
they shall sing
<07442> (8799)
for the majesty
<01347>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
they shall cry aloud
<06670> (8804)
from the sea
<03220>_.
Wherefore glorify
<03513> (8761)
ye the LORD
<03068>
in the fires
<0217>_,
[even] the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
in the isles
<0339>
of the sea
<03220>_.
{fires: or, valleys}
From the uttermost part
<03671>
of the earth
<0776>
have we heard
<08085> (8804)
songs
<02158>_,
[even] glory
<06643>
to the righteous
<06662>_.
But I said
<0559> (8799)_,
My leanness
<07334>_,
my leanness
<07334>_,
woe
<0188>
unto me! the treacherous dealers
<0898> (8802)
have dealt treacherously
<0898> (8804)_;
yea, the treacherous dealers
<0898> (8802)
have dealt very
<0899>
treacherously
<0898> (8804)_.
{uttermost...: Heb. wing} {My leanness: Heb. Leanness to me, or, My secret to me}
Fear
<06343>_,
and the pit
<06354>_,
and the snare
<06341>_,
[are] upon thee, O inhabitant
<03427> (8802)
of the earth
<0776>_.
And it shall come to pass, [that] he who fleeth
<05127> (8801)
from the noise
<06963>
of the fear
<06343>
shall fall
<05307> (8799)
into the pit
<06354>_;
and he that cometh up
<05927> (8802)
out of the midst
<08432>
of the pit
<06354>
shall be taken
<03920> (8735)
in the snare
<06341>_:
for the windows
<0699>
from on high
<04791>
are open
<06605> (8738)_,
and the foundations
<04146>
of the earth
<0776>
do shake
<07493> (8799)_.
The earth
<0776>
is utterly
<07489> (8800)
broken down
<07489> (8712)_,
the earth
<0776>
is clean
<06565> (8800)
dissolved
<06565> (8707)_,
the earth
<0776>
is moved
<04131> (8694)
exceedingly
<04131> (8800)_.
The earth
<0776>
shall reel
<05128> (8799)
to and fro
<05128> (8800)
like a drunkard
<07910>_,
and shall be removed
<05110> (8712)
like a cottage
<04412>_;
and the transgression
<06588>
thereof shall be heavy
<03513> (8804)
upon it; and it shall fall
<05307> (8804)_,
and not rise
<06965> (8800)
again
<03254> (8686)_.
And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,
[that] the LORD
<03068>
shall punish
<06485> (8799)
the host
<06635>
of the high ones
<04791>
[that are] on high
<04791>_,
and the kings
<04428>
of the earth
<0127>
upon the earth
<0127>_.
{punish: Heb. visit upon}
And they shall be gathered together
<0622> (8795)_,
[as] prisoners
<0616>
are gathered
<0626>
in the pit
<0953>_,
and shall be shut up
<05462> (8795)
in the prison
<04525>_,
and after many
<07230>
days
<03117>
shall they be visited
<06485> (8735)_.
{as prisoners...: Heb. with the gathering of prisoners} {pit: or, dungeon} {visited: or, found wanting}
Then the moon
<03842>
shall be confounded
<02659> (8804)_,
and the sun
<02535>
ashamed
<0954> (8804)_,
when the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
shall reign
<04427> (8804)
in mount
<02022>
Zion
<06726>_,
and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and before his ancients
<02205>
gloriously
<03519>_.
{before...: or, there shall be glory before his ancients}
O LORD
<03068>_,
thou [art] my God
<0430>_;
I will exalt
<07311> (8787)
thee, I will praise
<03034> (8686)
thy name
<08034>_;
for thou hast done
<06213> (8804)
wonderful
<06382>
[things; thy] counsels
<06098>
of old
<07350>
[are] faithfulness
<0530>
[and] truth
<0544>_.
For thou hast made
<07760> (8804)
of a city
<05892>
an heap
<01530>_;
[of] a defenced
<01219> (8803)
city
<07151>
a ruin
<04654>_:
a palace
<0759>
of strangers
<02114> (8801)
to be no city
<05892>_;
it shall never
<05769>
be built
<01129> (8735)_.
Therefore shall the strong
<05794>
people
<05971>
glorify
<03513> (8762)
thee, the city
<07151>
of the terrible
<06184>
nations
<01471>
shall fear
<03372> (8799)
thee.
For thou hast been a strength
<04581>
to the poor
<01800>_,
a strength
<04581>
to the needy
<034>
in his distress
<06862>_,
a refuge
<04268>
from the storm
<02230>_,
a shadow
<06738>
from the heat
<02721>_,
when the blast
<07307>
of the terrible ones
<06184>
[is] as a storm
<02230>
[against] the wall
<07023>_.
Thou shalt bring down
<03665> (8686)
the noise
<07588>
of strangers
<02114> (8801)_,
as the heat
<02721>
in a dry place
<06724>_;
[even] the heat
<02721>
with the shadow
<06738>
of a cloud
<05645>_:
the branch
<02159>
of the terrible ones
<06184>
shall be brought low
<06030> (8799)_.
And in this mountain
<02022>
shall the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
make
<06213> (8804)
unto all people
<05971>
a feast
<04960>
of fat things
<08081>_,
a feast
<04960>
of wines on the lees
<08105>_,
of fat things
<08081>
full of marrow
<04229> (8794)_,
of wines on the lees
<08105>
well refined
<02212> (8794)_.
And he will destroy
<01104> (8765)
in this mountain
<02022>
the face
<06440>
of the covering
<03875>
cast over
<03874> (8802)
all people
<05971>_,
and the vail
<04541>
that is spread
<05259> (8803)
over all nations
<01471>_.
{destroy: Heb. swallow up} {cast: Heb. covered}
He will swallow up
<01104> (8765)
death
<04194>
in victory
<05331>_;
and the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
will wipe away
<04229> (8804)
tears
<01832>
from off all faces
<06440>_;
and the rebuke
<02781>
of his people
<05971>
shall he take away
<05493> (8686)
from off all the earth
<0776>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
[it].
And it shall be said
<0559> (8804)
in that day
<03117>_,
Lo, this [is] our God
<0430>_;
we have waited
<06960> (8765)
for him, and he will save
<03467> (8686)
us: this [is] the LORD
<03068>_;
we have waited
<06960> (8765)
for him, we will be glad
<01523> (8799)
and rejoice
<08055> (8799)
in his salvation
<03444>_.
For in this mountain
<02022>
shall the hand
<03027>
of the LORD
<03068>
rest
<05117> (8799)_,
and Moab
<04124>
shall be trodden down
<01758> (8736)
under him, even as straw
<04963>
is trodden down
<01758> (8738)
for the dunghill
<01119> <04087> (8675) <04325>_.
{trodden down under: or, threshed, etc} {trodden down for...: or, threshed in Madmenah}
And he shall spread forth
<06566> (8765)
his hands
<03027>
in the midst
<07130>
of them, as he that swimmeth
<07811> (8802)
spreadeth forth
<06566> (8762)
[his hands] to swim
<07811> (8800)_:
and he shall bring down
<08213> (8689)
their pride
<01346>
together with the spoils
<0698>
of their hands
<03027>_.
And the fortress
<04013>
of the high fort
<04869>
of thy walls
<02346>
shall he bring down
<07817> (8689)_,
lay low
<08213> (8689)_,
[and] bring
<05060> (8689)
to the ground
<0776>_,
[even] to the dust
<06083>_.
In that day
<03117>
shall this song
<07892>
be sung
<07891> (8714)
in the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>_;
We have a strong
<05797>
city
<05892>_;
salvation
<03444>
will [God] appoint
<07896> (8799)
[for] walls
<02346>
and bulwarks
<02426>_.
Open
<06605> (8798)
ye the gates
<08179>_,
that the righteous
<06662>
nation
<01471>
which keepeth
<08104> (8802)
the truth
<0529>
may enter in
<0935> (8799)_.
{truth: Heb. truths}
Thou wilt keep
<05341> (8799)
[him] in perfect
<07965>
peace
<07965>_,
[whose] mind
<03336>
[is] stayed
<05564> (8803)
[on thee]: because he trusteth
<0982> (8803)
in thee. {perfect...: Heb. peace, peace} {mind: or, thought, or, imagination}
Trust
<0982> (8798)
ye in the LORD
<03068>
for ever
<05703>_:
for in the LORD
<03050>
JEHOVAH
<03068>
[is] everlasting
<05769>
strength
<06697>_:
{everlasting...: Heb. the rock of ages}
For he bringeth down
<07817> (8689)
them that dwell
<03427> (8802)
on high
<04791>_;
the lofty
<07682> (8737)
city
<07151>_,
he layeth it low
<08213> (8686)_;
he layeth it low
<08213> (8686)_,
[even] to the ground
<0776>_;
he bringeth
<05060> (8686)
it [even] to the dust
<06083>_.
The foot
<07272>
shall tread it down
<07429> (8799)_,
[even] the feet
<07272>
of the poor
<06041>_,
[and] the steps
<06471>
of the needy
<01800>_.
The way
<0734>
of the just
<06662>
[is] uprightness
<04339>_:
thou, most upright
<03477>_,
dost weigh
<06424> (8762)
the path
<04570>
of the just
<06662>_.
Yea, in the way
<0734>
of thy judgments
<04941>_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
have we waited
<06960> (8765)
for thee; the desire
<08378>
of [our] soul
<05315>
[is] to thy name
<08034>_,
and to the remembrance
<02143>
of thee.
With my soul
<05315>
have I desired
<0183> (8765)
thee in the night
<03915>_;
yea, with my spirit
<07307>
within
<07130>
me will I seek thee early
<07836> (8762)_:
for when thy judgments
<04941>
[are] in the earth
<0776>_,
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the world
<08398>
will learn
<03925> (8804)
righteousness
<06664>_.
Let favour be shewed
<02603> (8717)
to the wicked
<07563>_,
[yet] will he not
<01077>
learn
<03925> (8804)
righteousness
<06664>_:
in the land
<0776>
of uprightness
<05229>
will he deal unjustly
<05765> (8762)_,
and will not
<01077>
behold
<07200> (8799)
the majesty
<01348>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
LORD
<03068>_,
[when] thy hand
<03027>
is lifted up
<07311> (8804)_,
they will not see
<02372> (8799)_:
[but] they shall see
<02372> (8799)_,
and be ashamed
<0954> (8799)
for [their] envy
<07068>
at the people
<05971>_;
yea, the fire
<0784>
of thine enemies
<06862>
shall devour
<0398> (8799)
them. {at...: or, toward thy people}
LORD
<03068>_,
thou wilt ordain
<08239> (8799)
peace
<07965>
for us: for thou also hast wrought
<06466> (8804)
all our works
<04639>
in us. {in us: or, for us}
O LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_,
[other] lords
<0113>
beside
<02108>
thee have had dominion
<01166> (8804)
over us: [but] by thee only will we make mention
<02142> (8686)
of thy name
<08034>_.
[They are] dead
<04191> (8801)_,
they shall not live
<02421> (8799)_;
[they are] deceased
<07496>_,
they shall not rise
<06965> (8799)_:
therefore hast thou visited
<06485> (8804)
and destroyed
<08045> (8686)
them, and made all their memory
<02143>
to perish
<06> (8762)_.
Thou hast increased
<03254> (8804)
the nation
<01471>_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
thou hast increased
<03254> (8804)
the nation
<01471>_:
thou art glorified
<03513> (8738)_:
thou hadst removed [it] far
<07368> (8765)
[unto] all the ends
<07099>
of the earth
<0776>_.
LORD
<03068>_,
in trouble
<06862>
have they visited
<06485> (8804)
thee, they poured out
<06694> (8804)
a prayer
<03908>
[when] thy chastening
<04148>
[was] upon them. {prayer: Heb. secret speech}
Like
<03644>
as a woman with child
<02030>_,
[that] draweth near
<07126> (8686)
the time of her delivery
<03205> (8800)_,
is in pain
<02342> (8799)_,
[and] crieth out
<02199> (8799)
in her pangs
<02256>_;
so have we been in thy sight
<06440>_,
O LORD
<03068>_.
We have been with child
<02029> (8804)_,
we have been in pain
<02342> (8804)_,
we have as it were
<03644>
brought forth
<03205> (8804)
wind
<07307>_;
we have not wrought
<06213> (8799)
any deliverance
<03444>
in the earth
<0776>_;
neither
<01077>
have the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the world
<08398>
fallen
<05307> (8799)_.
Thy dead
<04191> (8801)
[men] shall live
<02421> (8799)_,
[together with] my dead body
<05038>
shall they arise
<06965> (8799)_.
Awake
<06974> (8685)
and sing
<07442> (8761)_,
ye that dwell
<07931> (8802)
in dust
<06083>_:
for thy dew
<02919>
[is as] the dew
<02919>
of herbs
<0219>_,
and the earth
<0776>
shall cast out
<05307> (8686)
the dead
<07496>_.
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
my people
<05971>_,
enter
<0935> (8798)
thou into thy chambers
<02315>_,
and shut
<05462> (8798)
thy doors
<01817>
about thee: hide
<02247> (8798)
thyself as it were for a little
<04592>
moment
<07281>_,
until the indignation
<02195>
be overpast
<05674> (8799)_.
For, behold, the LORD
<03068>
cometh out
<03318> (8802)
of his place
<04725>
to punish
<06485> (8800)
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the earth
<0776>
for their iniquity
<05771>_:
the earth
<0776>
also shall disclose
<01540> (8765)
her blood
<01818>_,
and shall no more cover
<03680> (8762)
her slain
<02026> (8803)_.
{blood: Heb. bloods}
In that day
<03117>
the LORD
<03068>
with his sore
<07186>
and great
<01419>
and strong
<02389>
sword
<02719>
shall punish
<06485> (8799)
leviathan
<03882>
the piercing
<01281>
serpent
<05175>_,
even leviathan
<03882>
that crooked
<06129>
serpent
<05175>_;
and he shall slay
<02026> (8804)
the dragon
<08577>
that [is] in the sea
<03220>_.
{piercing: or, crossing like a bar}
In that day
<03117>
sing
<06031> (8761)
ye unto her, A vineyard
<03754>
of red wine
<02561> (8676) <02531>_.
I the LORD
<03068>
do keep
<05341> (8802)
it; I will water
<08248> (8686)
it every moment
<07281>_:
lest [any] hurt
<06485> (8799)
it, I will keep
<05341> (8799)
it night
<03915>
and day
<03117>_.
Fury
<02534>
[is] not in me: who would set
<05414> (8799)
the briers
<08068>
[and] thorns
<07898>
against me in battle
<04421>_?
I would go
<06585> (8799)
through them, I would burn
<06702> (8686)
them together
<03162>_.
{go...: or, march against}
Or let him take hold
<02388> (8686)
of my strength
<04581>_,
[that] he may make
<06213> (8799)
peace
<07965>
with me; [and] he shall make
<06213> (8799)
peace
<07965>
with me.
He shall cause them that come
<0935> (8802)
of Jacob
<03290>
to take root
<08327> (8686)_:
Israel
<03478>
shall blossom
<06692> (8686)
and bud
<06524> (8804)_,
and fill
<04390> (8804)
the face
<06440>
of the world
<08398>
with fruit
<08570>_.
Hath he smitten
<05221> (8689)
him, as he smote
<04347>
those that smote
<05221> (8688)
him? [or] is he slain
<02026> (8795)
according to the slaughter
<02027>
of them that are slain
<02026> (8803)
by him? {as...: Heb. according to the stroke of}
In measure
<05432>_,
when it shooteth forth
<07971> (8763)_,
thou wilt debate
<07378> (8799)
with it: he stayeth
<01898> (8804)
his rough
<07186>
wind
<07307>
in the day
<03117>
of the east wind
<06921>_.
{it shooteth...: or, thou sendest it forth} {he...: or, when he removeth it with}
By this
<02063>
therefore shall the iniquity
<05771>
of Jacob
<03290>
be purged
<03722> (8792)_;
and this [is] all the fruit
<06529>
to take away
<05493> (8687)
his sin
<02403>_;
when he maketh
<07760> (8800)
all the stones
<068>
of the altar
<04196>
as chalkstones
<01615>
that are beaten in sunder
<05310> (8794)_,
the groves
<0842>
and images
<02553>
shall not stand up
<06965> (8799)_.
{images: or, sun images}
Yet the defenced
<01219> (8803)
city
<05892>
[shall be] desolate
<0910>_,
[and] the habitation
<05116>
forsaken
<07971> (8794)_,
and left
<05800> (8737)
like a wilderness
<04057>_:
there shall the calf
<05695>
feed
<07462> (8799)_,
and there shall he lie down
<07257> (8799)_,
and consume
<03615> (8765)
the branches
<05585>
thereof.
When the boughs
<07105>
thereof are withered
<03001> (8800)_,
they shall be broken off
<07665> (8735)_:
the women
<0802>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
[and] set them on fire
<0215> (8688)_:
for it [is] a people
<05971>
of no understanding
<0998>_:
therefore he that made
<06213> (8802)
them will not have mercy
<07355> (8762)
on them, and he that formed
<03335> (8802)
them will shew them no favour
<02603> (8799)_.
And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,
[that] the LORD
<03068>
shall beat off
<02251> (8799)
from the channel
<07641>
of the river
<05104>
unto the stream
<05158>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and ye shall be gathered
<03950> (8792)
one
<0259>
by one
<0259>_,
O ye children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,
[that] the great
<01419>
trumpet
<07782>
shall be blown
<08628> (8735)_,
and they shall come
<0935> (8804)
which were ready to perish
<06> (8802)
in the land
<0776>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
and the outcasts
<05080> (8737)
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and shall worship
<07812> (8694)
the LORD
<03068>
in the holy
<06944>
mount
<02022>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_.
