Isaiah 49:1--56:12

Listen
<08085> (8798)_,
O isles
<0339>_,
unto me; and hearken
<07181> (8685)_,
ye people
<03816>_,
from far
<07350>_;
The LORD
<03068>
hath called
<07121> (8804)
me from the womb
<0990>_;
from the bowels
<04578>
of my mother
<0517>
hath he made mention
<02142> (8689)
of my name
<08034>_.
And he hath made
<07760> (8799)
my mouth
<06310>
like a sharp
<02299>
sword
<02719>_;
in the shadow
<06738>
of his hand
<03027>
hath he hid
<02244> (8689)
me, and made
<07760> (8799)
me a polished
<01305> (8803)
shaft
<02671>_;
in his quiver
<0827>
hath he hid
<05641> (8689)
me;
And said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, Thou [art] my servant
<05650>_,
O Israel
<03478>_,
in whom I will be glorified
<06286> (8691)_.
Then I said
<0559> (8804)_,
I have laboured
<03021> (8804)
in vain
<07385>_,
I have spent
<03615> (8765)
my strength
<03581>
for nought
<08414>_,
and in vain
<01892>_:
[yet] surely
<0403>
my judgment
<04941>
[is] with the LORD
<03068>_,
and my work
<06468>
with my God
<0430>_.
{my work: or, my reward}
And now, saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
that formed
<03335> (8802)
me from the womb
<0990>
[to be] his servant
<05650>_,
to bring
<07725> (0)
Jacob
<03290>
again
<07725> (8788)
to him, Though Israel
<03478>
be not gathered
<0622> (8735)_,
yet shall I be glorious
<03513> (8735)
in the eyes
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and my God
<0430>
shall be my strength
<05797>_.
{Though...: or, That Israel may be gathered to him, and I may, etc}
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
It is a light thing
<07043> (8738)
that thou shouldest be my servant
<05650>
to raise up
<06965> (8687)
the tribes
<07626>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and to restore
<07725> (8687)
the preserved
<05341> (8803) (8675) <05336>
of Israel
<03478>_:
I will also give
<05414> (8804)
thee for a light
<0216>
to the Gentiles
<01471>_,
that thou mayest be my salvation
<03444>
unto the end
<07097>
of the earth
<0776>_.
{It is...: or, Art thou lighter than that thou shouldest, etc} {preserved: or, desolations}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the Redeemer
<01350> (8802)
of Israel
<03478>_,
[and] his Holy One
<06918>_,
to him whom man
<05315>
despiseth
<0960>_,
to him whom the nation
<01471>
abhorreth
<08581> (8764)_,
to a servant
<05650>
of rulers
<04910> (8802)_,
Kings
<04428>
shall see
<07200> (8799)
and arise
<06965> (8804)_,
princes
<08269>
also shall worship
<07812> (8691)_,
because of the LORD
<03068>
that is faithful
<0539> (8737)_,
[and] the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and he shall choose
<0977> (8799)
thee. {whom man...: or, that is despised in soul}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
In an acceptable
<07522>
time
<06256>
have I heard
<06030> (8804)
thee, and in a day
<03117>
of salvation
<03444>
have I helped
<05826> (8804)
thee: and I will preserve
<05341> (8799)
thee, and give
<05414> (8799)
thee for a covenant
<01285>
of the people
<05971>_,
to establish
<06965> (8687)
the earth
<0776>_,
to cause to inherit
<05157> (8687)
the desolate
<08074> (8802)
heritages
<05159>_;
{establish: or, raise up}
That thou mayest say
<0559> (8800)
to the prisoners
<0631> (8803)_,
Go forth
<03318> (8798)_;
to them that [are] in darkness
<02822>_,
Shew
<01540> (8734)
yourselves. They shall feed
<07462> (8799)
in the ways
<01870>_,
and their pastures
<04830>
[shall be] in all high places
<08205>_.
They shall not hunger
<07456> (8799)
nor thirst
<06770> (8799)_;
neither shall the heat
<08273>
nor sun
<08121>
smite
<05221> (8686)
them: for he that hath mercy
<07355> (8764)
on them shall lead
<05090> (8762)
them, even by the springs
<04002>
of water
<04325>
shall he guide
<05095> (8762)
them.
And I will make
<07760> (8804)
all my mountains
<02022>
a way
<01870>_,
and my highways
<04546>
shall be exalted
<07311> (8799)_.
Behold, these shall come
<0935> (8799)
from far
<07350>_:
and, lo, these from the north
<06828>
and from the west
<03220>_;
and these from the land
<0776>
of Sinim
<05515>_.
Sing
<07442> (8798)_,
O heavens
<08064>_;
and be joyful
<01523> (8798)_,
O earth
<0776>_;
and break forth
<06476> (8798)
into singing
<07440>_,
O mountains
<02022>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath comforted
<05162> (8765)
his people
<05971>_,
and will have mercy
<07355> (8762)
upon his afflicted
<06041>_.
But Zion
<06726>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
hath forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and my Lord
<0136>
hath forgotten
<07911> (8804)
me.
Can a woman
<0802>
forget
<07911> (8799)
her sucking child
<05764>_,
that she should not have compassion
<07355> (8763)
on the son
<01121>
of her womb
<0990>_?
yea, they may forget
<07911> (8799)_,
yet will I not forget
<07911> (8799)
thee. {that...: Heb. from having compassion}
Behold, I have graven
<02710> (8804)
thee upon the palms of [my] hands
<03709>_;
thy walls
<02346>
[are] continually
<08548>
before me.
Thy children
<01121>
shall make haste
<04116> (8765)_;
thy destroyers
<02040> (8764)
and they that made thee waste
<02717> (8688)
shall go forth
<03318> (8799)
of thee.
Lift up
<05375> (8798)
thine eyes
<05869>
round about
<05439>_,
and behold
<07200> (8798)_:
all these gather themselves together
<06908> (8738)_,
[and] come
<0935> (8804)
to thee. [As] I live
<02416>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
thou shalt surely clothe
<03847> (8799)
thee with them all, as with an ornament
<05716>_,
and bind
<07194> (8762)
them [on thee], as a bride
<03618>
[doeth].
For thy waste
<02723>
and thy desolate places
<08074> (8802)_,
and the land
<0776>
of thy destruction
<02035>_,
shall even now be too narrow
<03334> (8799)
by reason of the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)_,
and they that swallowed thee up
<01104> (8764)
shall be far away
<07368> (8804)_.
The children
<01121>
which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost
<07923>
the other, shall say
<0559> (8799)
again in thine ears
<0241>_,
The place
<04725>
[is] too strait
<06862>
for me: give
<05066> (8798)
place
<04725>
to me that I may dwell
<03427> (8799)_.
Then shalt thou say
<0559> (8804)
in thine heart
<03824>_,
Who hath begotten
<03205> (8804)
me these, seeing I have lost my children
<07921> (8803)_,
and am desolate
<01565>_,
a captive
<01540> (8802)_,
and removing to and fro
<05493> (8803)_?
and who hath brought up
<01431> (8765)
these? Behold, I was left
<07604> (8738)
alone; these, where
<0375>
[had] they [been]?
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
Behold, I will lift up
<05375> (8799)
mine hand
<03027>
to the Gentiles
<01471>_,
and set up
<07311> (8686)
my standard
<05251>
to the people
<05971>_:
and they shall bring
<0935> (8689)
thy sons
<01121>
in [their] arms
<02684>_,
and thy daughters
<01323>
shall be carried
<05375> (8735)
upon [their] shoulders
<03802>_.
{arms: Heb. bosom}
And kings
<04428>
shall be thy nursing fathers
<0539> (8802)_,
and their queens
<08282>
thy nursing mothers
<03243> (8688)_:
they shall bow down
<07812> (8691)
to thee with [their] face
<0639>
toward the earth
<0776>_,
and lick up
<03897> (8762)
the dust
<06083>
of thy feet
<07272>_;
and thou shalt know
<03045> (8804)
that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_:
for they shall not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)
that wait
<06960> (8802)
for me. {nursing fathers: Heb. nourishers} {queens: Heb. princesses}
Shall the prey
<04455>
be taken
<03947> (8714)
from the mighty
<01368>_,
or the lawful
<06662>
captive
<07628>
delivered
<04422> (8735)_?
{lawful...: Heb. captivity of the just}
But thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Even the captives
<07628>
of the mighty
<01368>
shall be taken away
<03947> (8714)_,
and the prey
<04455>
of the terrible
<06184>
shall be delivered
<04422> (8735)_:
for I will contend
<07378> (8799)
with him that contendeth
<03401>
with thee, and I will save
<03467> (8686)
thy children
<01121>_.
{captives: Heb. captivity}
And I will feed
<0398> (8689)
them that oppress
<03238> (8688)
thee with their own flesh
<01320>_;
and they shall be drunken
<07937> (8799)
with their own blood
<01818>_,
as with sweet wine
<06071>_:
and all flesh
<01320>
shall know
<03045> (8804)
that I the LORD
<03068>
[am] thy Saviour
<03467> (8688)
and thy Redeemer
<01350> (8802)_,
the mighty One
<046>
of Jacob
<03290>_.
{sweet: or, new}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Where [is] the bill
<05612>
of your mother's
<0517>
divorcement
<03748>_,
whom I have put away
<07971> (8765)_?
or which of my creditors
<05383> (8802)
[is it] to whom I have sold
<04376> (8804)
you? Behold, for your iniquities
<05771>
have ye sold
<04376> (8738)
yourselves, and for your transgressions
<06588>
is your mother
<0517>
put away
<07971> (8795)_.
Wherefore, when I came
<0935> (8804)_,
[was there] no man
<0376>_?
when I called
<07121> (8804)_,
[was there] none to answer
<06030> (8802)_?
Is my hand
<03027>
shortened
<07114> (8804)
at all
<07114> (8800)_,
that it cannot redeem
<06304>_?
or have I no power
<03581>
to deliver
<05337> (8687)_?
behold, at my rebuke
<01606>
I dry up
<02717> (8686)
the sea
<03220>_,
I make
<07760> (8799)
the rivers
<05104>
a wilderness
<04057>_:
their fish
<01710>
stinketh
<0887> (8799)_,
because [there is] no water
<04325>_,
and dieth
<04191> (8799)
for thirst
<06772>_.
I clothe
<03847> (8686)
the heavens
<08064>
with blackness
<06940>_,
and I make
<07760> (8799)
sackcloth
<08242>
their covering
<03682>_.
The Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
me the tongue
<03956>
of the learned
<03928>_,
that I should know
<03045> (8800)
how to speak
<05790> (8800)
a word
<01697>
in season to [him that is] weary
<03287>_:
he wakeneth
<05782> (8686)
morning
<01242>
by morning
<01242>_,
he wakeneth
<05782> (8686)
mine ear
<0241>
to hear
<08085> (8800)
as the learned
<03928>_.
The Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
hath opened
<06605> (8804)
mine ear
<0241>_,
and I was not rebellious
<04784> (8804)_,
neither turned away
<05472> (8738)
back
<0268>_.
I gave
<05414> (8804)
my back
<01460>
to the smiters
<05221> (8688)_,
and my cheeks
<03895>
to them that plucked off
<04803> (8802)
the hair: I hid
<05641> (8689)
not my face
<06440>
from shame
<03639>
and spitting
<07536>_.
For the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
will help
<05826> (8799)
me; therefore shall I not be confounded
<03637> (8738)_:
therefore have I set
<07760> (8804)
my face
<06440>
like a flint
<02496>_,
and I know
<03045> (8799)
that I shall not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_.
[He is] near
<07138>
that justifieth
<06663> (8688)
me; who will contend
<07378> (8799)
with me? let us stand
<05975> (8799)
together
<03162>_:
who [is] mine adversary
<01167> <04941>_?
let him come near
<05066> (8799)
to me. {mine...: Heb. the master of my cause?}
Behold, the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
will help
<05826> (8799)
me; who [is] he [that] shall condemn
<07561> (8686)
me? lo, they all shall wax old
<01086> (8799)
as a garment
<0899>_;
the moth
<06211>
shall eat them up
<0398> (8799)_.
Who [is] among you that feareth
<03373>
the LORD
<03068>_,
that obeyeth
<08085> (8802)
the voice
<06963>
of his servant
<05650>_,
that walketh
<01980> (8804)
[in] darkness
<02825>_,
and hath no light
<05051>_?
let him trust
<0982> (8799)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and stay
<08172> (8735)
upon his God
<0430>_.
Behold, all ye that kindle
<06919> (8802)
a fire
<0784>_,
that compass [yourselves] about
<0247> (8764)
with sparks
<02131>_:
walk
<03212> (8798)
in the light
<0217>
of your fire
<0784>_,
and in the sparks
<02131>
[that] ye have kindled
<01197> (8765)_.
This shall ye have of mine hand
<03027>_;
ye shall lie down
<07901> (8799)
in sorrow
<04620>_.
Hearken
<08085> (8798)
to me, ye that follow after
<07291> (8802)
righteousness
<06664>_,
ye that seek
<01245> (8764)
the LORD
<03068>_:
look
<05027> (8685)
unto the rock
<06697>
[whence] ye are hewn
<02672> (8795)_,
and to the hole
<04718>
of the pit
<0953>
[whence] ye are digged
<05365> (8795)_.
Look
<05027> (8685)
unto Abraham
<085>
your father
<01>_,
and unto Sarah
<08283>
[that] bare
<02342> (8787)
you: for I called
<07121> (8804)
him alone
<0259>_,
and blessed
<01288> (8762)
him, and increased
<07235> (8686)
him.
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)_.
Awake
<05782> (8798)_,
awake
<05782> (8798)_;
put on
<03847> (8798)
thy strength
<05797>_,
O Zion
<06726>_;
put on
<03847> (8798)
thy beautiful
<08597>
garments
<0899>_,
O Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the holy
<06944>
city
<05892>_:
for henceforth there shall no more
<03254> (8686)
come
<0935> (8799)
into thee the uncircumcised
<06189>
and the unclean
<02931>_.
Shake
<05287> (8690)
thyself from the dust
<06083>_;
arise
<06965> (8798)_,
[and] sit down
<03427> (8798)_,
O Jerusalem
<03389>_:
loose
<06605> (8690)
thyself from the bands
<04147>
of thy neck
<06677>_,
O captive
<07628>
daughter
<01323>
of Zion
<06726>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Ye have sold
<04376> (8738)
yourselves for nought
<02600>_;
and ye shall be redeemed
<01350> (8735)
without money
<03701>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
My people
<05971>
went down
<03381> (8804)
aforetime
<07223>
into Egypt
<04714>
to sojourn
<01481> (8800)
there; and the Assyrian
<0804>
oppressed
<06231> (8804)
them without cause
<0657>_.
Now therefore, what have I here, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that my people
<05971>
is taken away
<03947> (8795)
for nought
<02600>_?
they that rule
<04910> (8802)
over them make them to howl
<03213> (8686)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and my name
<08034>
continually
<08548>
every day
<03117>
[is] blasphemed
<05006> (8711)_.
Therefore my people
<05971>
shall know
<03045> (8799)
my name
<08034>_:
therefore [they shall know] in that day
<03117>
that I [am] he that doth speak
<01696> (8764)_:
behold, [it is] I.
How beautiful
<04998> (8773)
upon the mountains
<02022>
are the feet
<07272>
of him that bringeth good tidings
<01319> (8764)_,
that publisheth
<08085> (8688)
peace
<07965>_;
that bringeth good tidings
<01319> (8764)
of good
<02896>_,
that publisheth
<08085> (8688)
salvation
<03444>_;
that saith
<0559> (8802)
unto Zion
<06726>_,
Thy God
<0430>
reigneth
<04427> (8804)_!
Thy watchmen
<06822> (8802)
shall lift up
<05375> (8804)
the voice
<06963>_;
with the voice
<06963>
together
<03162>
shall they sing
<07442> (8762)_:
for they shall see
<07200> (8799)
eye
<05869>
to eye
<05869>_,
when the LORD
<03068>
shall bring again
<07725> (8800)
Zion
<06726>_.
Break forth into joy
<06476> (8798)_,
sing
<07442> (8761)
together
<03162>_,
ye waste places
<02723>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath comforted
<05162> (8765)
his people
<05971>_,
he hath redeemed
<01350> (8804)
Jerusalem
<03389>_.
The LORD
<03068>
hath made bare
<02834> (8804)
his holy
<06944>
arm
<02220>
in the eyes
<05869>
of all the nations
<01471>_;
and all the ends
<0657>
of the earth
<0776>
shall see
<07200> (8804)
the salvation
<03444>
of our God
<0430>_.
Depart
<05493> (8798)
ye, depart
<05493> (8798)
ye, go ye out
<03318> (8798)
from thence, touch
<05060> (8799)
no unclean
<02931>
[thing]; go ye out
<03318> (8798)
of the midst
<08432>
of her; be ye clean
<01305> (8734)_,
that bear
<05375> (8802)
the vessels
<03627>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
For ye shall not go out
<03318> (8799)
with haste
<02649>_,
nor go
<03212> (8799)
by flight
<04499>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
will go
<01980> (8802)
before
<06440>
you; and the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
[will be] your rereward
<0622> (8764)_.
{be...: Heb. gather you up}
Behold, my servant
<05650>
shall deal prudently
<07919> (8686)_,
he shall be exalted
<07311> (8799)
and extolled
<05375> (8738)_,
and be very
<03966>
high
<01361> (8804)_.
{deal...: or, prosper}
As many
<07227>
were astonied
<08074> (8804)
at thee; his visage
<04758>
was so marred
<04893>
more than any man
<0376>_,
and his form
<08389>
more than the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>_:
So shall he sprinkle
<05137> (8686)
many
<07227>
nations
<01471>_;
the kings
<04428>
shall shut
<07092> (8799)
their mouths
<06310>
at him: for [that] which had not been told
<05608> (8795)
them shall they see
<07200> (8804)_;
and [that] which they had not heard
<08085> (8804)
shall they consider
<0995> (8712)_.
Who hath believed
<0539> (8689)
our report
<08052>_?
and to whom is the arm
<02220>
of the LORD
<03068>
revealed
<01540> (8738)_?
{report: or, doctrine?: Heb. hearing?}
For he shall grow up
<05927> (8799)
before
<06440>
him as a tender plant
<03126>_,
and as a root
<08328>
out of a dry
<06723>
ground
<0776>_:
he hath no form
<08389>
nor comeliness
<01926>_;
and when we shall see
<07200> (8799)
him, [there is] no beauty
<04758>
that we should desire
<02530> (8799)
him.
He is despised
<0959> (8737)
and rejected
<02310>
of men
<0376>_;
a man
<0376>
of sorrows
<04341>_,
and acquainted
<03045> (8803)
with grief
<02483>_:
and we hid as it were
<04564> (8688)
[our] faces
<06440>
from him; he was despised
<0959> (8737)_,
and we esteemed
<02803> (8804)
him not. {we hid...: or, he hid as it were his face from us: Heb. as an hiding of faces from him, or, from us}
Surely
<0403>
he hath borne
<05375> (8804)
our griefs
<02483>_,
and carried
<05445> (8804)
our sorrows
<04341>_:
yet we did esteem
<02803> (8804)
him stricken
<05060> (8803)_,
smitten
<05221> (8716)
of God
<0430>_,
and afflicted
<06031> (8794)_.
But he [was] wounded
<02490> (8775)
for our transgressions
<06588>_,
[he was] bruised
<01792> (8794)
for our iniquities
<05771>_:
the chastisement
<04148>
of our peace
<07965>
[was] upon him; and with his stripes
<02250>
we are healed
<07495> (8738)_.
{wounded: or, tormented} {stripes: Heb. bruise}
All we like sheep
<06629>
have gone astray
<08582> (8804)_;
we have turned
<06437> (8804)
every one
<0376>
to his own way
<01870>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
hath laid
<06293> (8689)
on him the iniquity
<05771>
of us all. {laid...: Heb. made the iniquity of us all to meet on him}
He was oppressed
<05065> (8738)_,
and he was afflicted
<06031> (8737)_,
yet he opened
<06605> (8799)
not his mouth
<06310>_:
he is brought
<02986> (8714)
as a lamb
<07716>
to the slaughter
<02874>_,
and as a sheep
<07353>
before
<06440>
her shearers
<01494> (8802)
is dumb
<0481> (8738)_,
so he openeth
<06605> (8799)
not his mouth
<06310>_.
He was taken
<03947> (8795)
from prison
<06115>
and from judgment
<04941>_:
and who shall declare
<07878> (8787)
his generation
<01755>_?
for he was cut off
<01504> (8738)
out of the land
<0776>
of the living
<02416>_:
for the transgression
<06588>
of my people
<05971>
was he stricken
<05061>_.
{from prison...: or, away by distress and judgment: but, etc} {was he...: Heb. was the stroke upon him}
And he made
<05414> (8799)
his grave
<06913>
with the wicked
<07563>_,
and with the rich
<06223>
in his death
<04194>_;
because he had done
<06213> (8804)
no violence
<02555>_,
neither [was any] deceit
<04820>
in his mouth
<06310>_.
{death: Heb. deaths}
Yet it pleased
<02654> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
to bruise
<01792> (8763)
him; he hath put [him] to grief
<02470> (8689)_:
when thou shalt make
<07760> (8799)
his soul
<05315>
an offering for sin
<0817>_,
he shall see
<07200> (8799)
[his] seed
<02233>_,
he shall prolong
<0748> (8686)
[his] days
<03117>_,
and the pleasure
<02656>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall prosper
<06743> (8799)
in his hand
<03027>_.
{thou...: or, his soul shall make an offering}
He shall see
<07200> (8799)
of the travail
<05999>
of his soul
<05315>_,
[and] shall be satisfied
<07646> (8799)_:
by his knowledge
<01847>
shall my righteous
<06662>
servant
<05650>
justify
<06663> (8686)
many
<07227>_;
for he shall bear
<05445> (8799)
their iniquities
<05771>_.
Therefore will I divide
<02505> (8762)
him [a portion] with the great
<07227>_,
and he shall divide
<02505> (8762)
the spoil
<07998>
with the strong
<06099>_;
because he hath poured out
<06168> (8689)
his soul
<05315>
unto death
<04194>_:
and he was numbered
<04487> (8738)
with the transgressors
<06586> (8802)_;
and he bare
<05375> (8804)
the sin
<02399>
of many
<07227>_,
and made intercession
<06293> (8686)
for the transgressors
<06586> (8802)_.
Sing
<07442> (8798)_,
O barren
<06135>_,
thou [that] didst not bear
<03205> (8804)_;
break forth
<06476> (8798)
into singing
<07440>_,
and cry aloud
<06670> (8761)_,
thou [that] didst not travail with child
<02342> (8804)_:
for more
<07227>
[are] the children
<01121>
of the desolate
<08074> (8802)
than the children
<01121>
of the married wife
<01166> (8803)_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Enlarge
<07337> (8685)
the place
<04725>
of thy tent
<0168>_,
and let them stretch forth
<05186> (8686)
the curtains
<03407>
of thine habitations
<04908>_:
spare
<02820> (8799)
not, lengthen
<0748> (8685)
thy cords
<04340>_,
and strengthen
<02388> (8761)
thy stakes
<03489>_;
For thou shalt break forth
<06555> (8799)
on the right hand
<03225>
and on the left
<08040>_;
and thy seed
<02233>
shall inherit
<03423> (8799)
the Gentiles
<01471>_,
and make the desolate
<08074> (8737)
cities
<05892>
to be inhabited
<03427> (8686)_.
Fear
<03372> (8799)
not; for thou shalt not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_:
neither be thou confounded
<03637> (8735)_;
for thou shalt not be put to shame
<02659> (8686)_:
for thou shalt forget
<07911> (8799)
the shame
<01322>
of thy youth
<05934>_,
and shalt not remember
<02142> (8799)
the reproach
<02781>
of thy widowhood
<0491>
any more.
For thy Maker
<06213> (8802)
[is] thine husband
<01166> (8802)_;
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
[is] his name
<08034>_;
and thy Redeemer
<01350> (8802)
the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_;
The God
<0430>
of the whole earth
<0776>
shall he be called
<07121> (8735)_.
{Maker: Heb. Makers}
For the LORD
<03068>
hath called
<07121> (8804)
thee as a woman
<0802>
forsaken
<05800> (8803)
and grieved
<06087> (8803)
in spirit
<07307>_,
and a wife
<0802>
of youth
<05271>_,
when thou wast refused
<03988> (8735)_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
thy God
<0430>_.
For a small
<06996>
moment
<07281>
have I forsaken
<05800> (8804)
thee; but with great
<01419>
mercies
<07356>
will I gather
<06908> (8762)
thee.
In a little
<08241>
wrath
<07110>
I hid
<05641> (8689)
my face
<06440>
from thee for a moment
<07281>_;
but with everlasting
<05769>
kindness
<02617>
will I have mercy
<07355> (8765)
on thee, saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
thy Redeemer
<01350> (8802)_.
For this [is as] the waters
<04325>
of Noah
<05146>
unto me: for [as] I have sworn
<07650> (8738)
that the waters
<04325>
of Noah
<05146>
should no more go over
<05674> (8800)
the earth
<0776>_;
so have I sworn
<07650> (8738)
that I would not be wroth
<07107> (8800)
with thee, nor rebuke
<01605> (8800)
thee.
For the mountains
<02022>
shall depart
<04185> (8799)_,
and the hills
<01389>
be removed
<04131> (8799)_;
but my kindness
<02617>
shall not depart
<04185> (8799)
from thee, neither shall the covenant
<01285>
of my peace
<07965>
be removed
<04131> (8799)_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
that hath mercy
<07355> (8764)
on thee.
O thou afflicted
<06041>_,
tossed with tempest
<05590> (8802)_,
[and] not comforted
<05162> (8794)_,
behold, I will lay
<07257> (8688)
thy stones
<068>
with fair colours
<06320>_,
and lay thy foundations
<03245> (8804)
with sapphires
<05601>_.
And I will make
<07760> (8804)
thy windows
<08121>
of agates
<03539>_,
and thy gates
<08179>
of carbuncles
<068> <0688>_,
and all thy borders
<01366>
of pleasant
<02656>
stones
<068>_.
And all thy children
<01121>
[shall be] taught
<03928>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
and great
<07227>
[shall be] the peace
<07965>
of thy children
<01121>_.
In righteousness
<06666>
shalt thou be established
<03559> (8709)_:
thou shalt be far
<07368> (8798)
from oppression
<06233>_;
for thou shalt not fear
<03372> (8799)_:
and from terror
<04288>_;
for it shall not come near
<07126> (8799)
thee.
Behold, they shall surely
<01481> (8800)
gather together
<01481> (8799)_,
[but] not
<0657>
by me: whosoever
<04310>
shall gather together
<01481> (8804)
against thee shall fall
<05307> (8799)
for thy sake.
Behold, I have created
<01254> (8804)
the smith
<02796>
that bloweth
<05301> (8802)
the coals
<06352>
in the fire
<0784>_,
and that bringeth forth
<03318> (8688)
an instrument
<03627>
for his work
<04639>_;
and I have created
<01254> (8804)
the waster
<07843> (8688)
to destroy
<02254> (8763)_.
No weapon
<03627>
that is formed
<03335> (8714)
against thee shall prosper
<06743> (8799)_;
and every tongue
<03956>
[that] shall rise
<06965> (8799)
against thee in judgment
<04941>
thou shalt condemn
<07561> (8686)_.
This [is] the heritage
<05159>
of the servants
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and their righteousness
<06666>
[is] of me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Ho
<01945>_,
every one that thirsteth
<06771>_,
come
<03212> (8798)
ye to the waters
<04325>_,
and he that hath no money
<03701>_;
come
<03212> (8798)
ye, buy
<07666> (8798)_,
and eat
<0398> (8798)_;
yea, come
<03212> (8798)_,
buy
<07666> (8798)
wine
<03196>
and milk
<02461>
without money
<03701>
and without price
<04242>_.
Wherefore do ye spend
<08254> (8799)
money
<03701>
for [that which is] not bread
<03899>_?
and your labour
<03018>
for [that which] satisfieth
<07654>
not
<03808>_?
hearken
<08085> (8798)
diligently
<08085> (8800)
unto me, and eat
<0398> (8798)
ye [that which is] good
<02896>_,
and let your soul
<05315>
delight
<06026> (8691)
itself in fatness
<01880>_.
{spend: Heb. weigh}
Incline
<05186> (8685)
your ear
<0241>_,
and come
<03212> (8798)
unto me: hear
<08085> (8798)_,
and your soul
<05315>
shall live
<02421> (8799)_;
and I will make
<03772> (8799)
an everlasting
<05769>
covenant
<01285>
with you, [even] the sure
<0539> (8737)
mercies
<02617>
of David
<01732>_.
Behold, I have given
<05414> (8804)
him [for] a witness
<05707>
to the people
<03816>_,
a leader
<05057>
and commander
<06680> (8764)
to the people
<03816>_.
Behold, thou shalt call
<07121> (8799)
a nation
<01471>
[that] thou knowest
<03045> (8799)
not, and nations
<01471>
[that] knew
<03045> (8804)
not thee shall run
<07323> (8799)
unto thee because of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
and for the Holy One
<06918>
of Israel
<03478>_;
for he hath glorified
<06286> (8765)
thee.
Seek
<01875> (8798)
ye the LORD
<03068>
while he may be found
<04672> (8736)_,
call
<07121> (8798)
ye upon him while he is near
<07138>_:
Let the wicked
<07563>
forsake
<05800> (8799)
his way
<01870>_,
and the unrighteous
<0205>
man
<0376>
his thoughts
<04284>_:
and let him return
<07725> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and he will have mercy
<07355> (8762)
upon him; and to our God
<0430>_,
for he will abundantly
<07235> (8686)
pardon
<05545> (8800)_.
{the unrighteous...: Heb. the man of iniquity} {abundantly...: Heb. multiply to pardon}
For my thoughts
<04284>
[are] not your thoughts
<04284>_,
neither [are] your ways
<01870>
my ways
<01870>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
For [as] the heavens
<08064>
are higher
<01361> (8804)
than the earth
<0776>_,
so are my ways
<01870>
higher
<01361> (8804)
than your ways
<01870>_,
and my thoughts
<04284>
than your thoughts
<04284>_.
For as the rain
<01653>
cometh down
<03381> (8799)_,
and the snow
<07950>
from heaven
<08064>_,
and returneth
<07725> (8799)
not thither, but watereth
<07301> (8689)
the earth
<0776>_,
and maketh it bring forth
<03205> (8689)
and bud
<06779> (8689)_,
that it may give
<05414> (8804)
seed
<02233>
to the sower
<02232> (8802)_,
and bread
<03899>
to the eater
<0398> (8802)_:
So shall my word
<01697>
be that goeth forth
<03318> (8799)
out of my mouth
<06310>_:
it shall not return
<07725> (8799)
unto me void
<07387>_,
but it shall accomplish
<06213> (8804)
that which I please
<02654> (8804)_,
and it shall prosper
<06743> (8689)
[in the thing] whereto I sent
<07971> (8804)
it.
For ye shall go out
<03318> (8799)
with joy
<08057>_,
and be led forth
<02986> (8714)
with peace
<07965>_:
the mountains
<02022>
and the hills
<01389>
shall break forth
<06476> (8799)
before
<06440>
you into singing
<07440>_,
and all the trees
<06086>
of the field
<07704>
shall clap
<04222> (8799)
[their] hands
<03709>_.
Instead of the thorn
<05285>
shall come up
<05927> (8799)
the fir tree
<01265>_,
and instead of the brier
<05636>
shall come up
<05927> (8799)
the myrtle tree
<01918>_:
and it shall be to the LORD
<03068>
for a name
<08034>_,
for an everlasting
<05769>
sign
<0226>
[that] shall not be cut off
<03772> (8735)_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Keep
<08104> (8798)
ye judgment
<04941>_,
and do
<06213> (8798)
justice
<06666>_:
for my salvation
<03444>
[is] near
<07138>
to come
<0935> (8800)_,
and my righteousness
<06666>
to be revealed
<01540> (8736)_.
{judgment: or, equity}
Blessed
<0835>
[is] the man
<0582>
[that] doeth
<06213> (8799)
this, and the son
<01121>
of man
<0120>
[that] layeth hold
<02388> (8686)
on it; that keepeth
<08104> (8802)
the sabbath
<07676>
from polluting
<02490> (8763)
it, and keepeth
<08104> (8802)
his hand
<03027>
from doing
<06213> (8800)
any evil
<07451>_.
Neither let the son
<01121>
of the stranger
<05236>_,
that hath joined
<03867> (8738)
himself to the LORD
<03068>_,
speak
<0559> (8799)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
hath utterly
<0914> (8687)
separated
<0914> (8686)
me from his people
<05971>_:
neither let the eunuch
<05631>
say
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, I [am] a dry
<03002>
tree
<06086>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
unto the eunuchs
<05631>
that keep
<08104> (8799)
my sabbaths
<07676>_,
and choose
<0977> (8804)
[the things] that please
<02654> (8804)
me, and take hold
<02388> (8688)
of my covenant
<01285>_;
Even unto them will I give
<05414> (8804)
in mine house
<01004>
and within my walls
<02346>
a place
<03027>
and a name
<08034>
better
<02896>
than of sons
<01121>
and of daughters
<01323>_:
I will give
<05414> (8799)
them an everlasting
<05769>
name
<08034>_,
that shall not be cut off
<03772> (8735)_.
Also the sons
<01121>
of the stranger
<05236>_,
that join
<03867> (8737)
themselves to the LORD
<03068>_,
to serve
<08334> (8763)
him, and to love
<0157> (8800)
the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
to be his servants
<05650>_,
every one that keepeth
<08104> (8802)
the sabbath
<07676>
from polluting
<02490> (8763)
it, and taketh hold
<02388> (8688)
of my covenant
<01285>_;
Even them will I bring
<0935> (8689)
to my holy
<06944>
mountain
<02022>_,
and make them joyful
<08055> (8765)
in my house
<01004>
of prayer
<08605>_:
their burnt offerings
<05930>
and their sacrifices
<02077>
[shall be] accepted
<07522>
upon mine altar
<04196>_;
for mine house
<01004>
shall be called
<07121> (8735)
an house
<01004>
of prayer
<08605>
for all people
<05971>_.
The Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
which gathereth
<06908> (8764)
the outcasts
<01760> (8737)
of Israel
<03478>
saith
<05002> (8803)_,
Yet will I gather
<06908> (8762)
[others] to him, beside those that are gathered
<06908> (8737)
unto him. {beside...: Heb. to his gathered}
All ye beasts
<02416>
of the field
<07704>_,
come
<0857> (8798)
to devour
<0398> (8800)_,
[yea], all ye beasts
<02416>
in the forest
<03293>_.
His watchmen
<06822> (8802)
[are] blind
<05787>_:
they are all ignorant
<03045> (8804)_,
they [are] all dumb
<0483>
dogs
<03611>_,
they cannot
<03201> (8799)
bark
<05024> (8800)_;
sleeping
<01957> (8802)_,
lying down
<07901> (8802)_,
loving
<0157> (8802)
to slumber
<05123> (8800)_.
{sleeping: or, dreaming, or, talking in their sleep}
Yea, [they are] greedy
<05794> <05315>
dogs
<03611>
[which] can
<03045> (8804)
never have
<03045> (8804)
enough
<07654>_,
and they [are] shepherds
<07462> (8802)
[that] cannot understand
<0995> (8687)_:
they all look
<06437> (8804)
to their own way
<01870>_,
every one
<0376>
for his gain
<01215>_,
from his quarter
<07097>_.
{greedy: Heb. strong of appetite} {can...: Heb. know not to be satisfied}
Come
<0857> (8798)
ye, [say they], I will fetch
<03947> (8799)
wine
<03196>_,
and we will fill
<05433> (8799)
ourselves with strong drink
<07941>_;
and to morrow
<04279>
shall be as this day
<03117>_,
[and] much
<03966>
more
<03499>
abundant
<01419>_.
