Isaiah 51:3-23

For the LORD
<03068>
shall comfort
<05162> (8765)
Zion
<06726>_:
he will comfort
<05162> (8765)
all her waste places
<02723>_;
and he will make
<07760> (8799)
her wilderness
<04057>
like Eden
<05731>_,
and her desert
<06160>
like the garden
<01588>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
joy
<08342>
and gladness
<08057>
shall be found
<04672> (8735)
therein, thanksgiving
<08426>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of melody
<02172>_.
Hearken
<07181> (8685)
unto me, my people
<05971>_;
and give ear
<0238> (8685)
unto me, O my nation
<03816>_:
for a law
<08451>
shall proceed
<03318> (8799)
from me, and I will make my judgment
<04941>
to rest
<07280> (8686)
for a light
<0216>
of the people
<05971>_.
My righteousness
<06664>
[is] near
<07138>_;
my salvation
<03468>
is gone forth
<03318> (8804)_,
and mine arms
<02220>
shall judge
<08199> (8799)
the people
<05971>_;
the isles
<0339>
shall wait
<06960> (8762)
upon me, and on mine arm
<02220>
shall they trust
<03176> (8762)_.
Lift up
<05375> (8798)
your eyes
<05869>
to the heavens
<08064>_,
and look
<05027> (8685)
upon the earth
<0776>
beneath: for the heavens
<08064>
shall vanish away
<04414> (8738)
like smoke
<06227>_,
and the earth
<0776>
shall wax old
<01086> (8799)
like a garment
<0899>_,
and they that dwell
<03427> (8802)
therein shall die
<04191> (8799)
in like
<03644>
manner
<03654>_:
but my salvation
<03444>
shall be for ever
<05769>_,
and my righteousness
<06666>
shall not be abolished
<02865> (8735)_.
Hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto me, ye that know
<03045> (8802)
righteousness
<06664>_,
the people
<05971>
in whose heart
<03820>
[is] my law
<08451>_;
fear
<03372> (8799)
ye not the reproach
<02781>
of men
<0582>_,
neither be ye afraid
<02865> (8735)
of their revilings
<01421>_.
For the moth
<06211>
shall eat them up
<0398> (8799)
like a garment
<0899>_,
and the worm
<05580>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
them like wool
<06785>_:
but my righteousness
<06666>
shall be for ever
<05769>_,
and my salvation
<03444>
from generation
<01755>
to generation
<01755>_.
Awake
<05782> (8798)_,
awake
<05782> (8798)_,
put on
<03847> (8798)
strength
<05797>_,
O arm
<02220>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
awake
<05782> (8798)_,
as in the ancient
<06924>
days
<03117>_,
in the generations
<01755>
of old
<05769>_.
[Art] thou not it that hath cut
<02672> (8688)
Rahab
<07294>_,
[and] wounded
<02490> (8781)
the dragon
<08577>_?
[Art] thou not it which hath dried
<02717> (8688)
the sea
<03220>_,
the waters
<04325>
of the great
<07227>
deep
<08415>_;
that hath made
<07760> (8804)
the depths
<04615>
of the sea
<03220>
a way
<01870>
for the ransomed
<01350> (8803)
to pass over
<05674> (8800)_?
Therefore the redeemed
<06299> (8803)
of the LORD
<03068>
shall return
<07725> (8799)_,
and come
<0935> (8804)
with singing
<07440>
unto Zion
<06726>_;
and everlasting
<05769>
joy
<08057>
[shall be] upon their head
<07218>_:
they shall obtain
<05381> (8686)
gladness
<08342>
and joy
<08057>_;
[and] sorrow
<03015>
and mourning
<0585>
shall flee away
<05127> (8804)_.
I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth
<05162> (8764)
you: who [art] thou, that thou shouldest be afraid
<03372> (8799)
of a man
<0582>
[that] shall die
<04191> (8799)_,
and of the son
<01121>
of man
<0120>
[which] shall be made
<05414> (8735)
[as] grass
<02682>_;
And forgettest
<07911> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>
thy maker
<06213> (8802)_,
that hath stretched forth
<05186> (8802)
the heavens
<08064>_,
and laid the foundations
<03245> (8801)
of the earth
<0776>_;
and hast feared
<06342> (8762)
continually
<08548>
every day
<03117>
because
<06440>
of the fury
<02534>
of the oppressor
<06693> (8688)_,
as if
<0834>
he were ready
<03559> (8790)
to destroy
<07843> (8687)_?
and where [is] the fury
<02534>
of the oppressor
<06693> (8688)_?
{were...: or, made himself ready}
The captive exile
<06808> (8802)
hasteneth
<04116> (8765)
that he may be loosed
<06605> (8736)_,
and that he should not die
<04191> (8799)
in the pit
<07845>_,
nor that his bread
<03899>
should fail
<02637> (8799)_.
But I [am] the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
that divided
<07280> (8802)
the sea
<03220>_,
whose waves
<01530>
roared
<01993> (8799)_:
The LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
[is] his name
<08034>_.
And I have put
<07760> (8799)
my words
<01697>
in thy mouth
<06310>_,
and I have covered
<03680> (8765)
thee in the shadow
<06738>
of mine hand
<03027>_,
that I may plant
<05193> (8800)
the heavens
<08064>_,
and lay the foundations
<03245> (8800)
of the earth
<0776>_,
and say
<0559> (8800)
unto Zion
<06726>_,
Thou [art] my people
<05971>_.
Awake
<05782> (8708)_,
awake
<05782> (8708)_,
stand up
<06965> (8798)_,
O Jerusalem
<03389>_,
which hast drunk
<08354> (8804)
at the hand
<03027>
of the LORD
<03068>
the cup
<03563>
of his fury
<02534>_;
thou hast drunken
<08354> (8804)
the dregs
<06907>
of the cup
<03563>
of trembling
<08653>_,
[and] wrung [them] out
<04680> (8804)_.
[There is] none to guide
<05095> (8764)
her among all the sons
<01121>
[whom] she hath brought forth
<03205> (8804)_;
neither [is there any] that taketh
<02388> (8688)
her by the hand
<03027>
of all the sons
<01121>
[that] she hath brought up
<01431> (8765)_.
These two
<08147>
[things] are come
<07122> (8802)
unto thee; who shall be sorry
<05110> (8799)
for thee? desolation
<07701>_,
and destruction
<07667>_,
and the famine
<07458>_,
and the sword
<02719>_:
by whom shall I comfort
<05162> (8762)
thee? {are...: Heb. happened} {destruction: Heb. breaking}
Thy sons
<01121>
have fainted
<05968> (8795)_,
they lie
<07901> (8804)
at the head
<07218>
of all the streets
<02351>_,
as a wild bull
<08377>
in a net
<04364>_:
they are full
<04392>
of the fury
<02534>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
the rebuke
<01606>
of thy God
<0430>_.
Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)
now this, thou afflicted
<06041>_,
and drunken
<07937> (8803)_,
but not with wine
<03196>_:
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
thy Lord
<0113>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and thy God
<0430>
[that] pleadeth
<07378> (8799)
the cause of his people
<05971>_,
Behold, I have taken out
<03947> (8804)
of thine hand
<03027>
the cup
<03563>
of trembling
<08653>_,
[even] the dregs
<06907>
of the cup
<03563>
of my fury
<02534>_;
thou shalt no more
<03254> (8686)
drink it again
<08354> (8800)_:
But I will put
<07760> (8804)
it into the hand
<03027>
of them that afflict
<03013> (8688)
thee; which have said
<0559> (8804)
to thy soul
<05315>_,
Bow down
<07812> (8798)_,
that we may go over
<05674> (8799)_:
and thou hast laid
<07760> (8799)
thy body
<01460>
as the ground
<0776>_,
and as the street
<02351>_,
to them that went over
<05674> (8802)_.
