Isaiah

1.1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

1.2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth. for YHVH hath spoken. I am magnified and exalted, and they have transgressed against me.

1.3 The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its owner's manger; Israel does not know, my people, I do not consider.

1.4 Woe to a sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children of corrupters! They have forsaken YHVH, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel, they have gone backward.

1.5 Why should you strike again? You will add more pain. Every head is sick, and every heart is faint.

1.6 From the sole of the foot to the head there is no soundness in him, no wound, no bruise, no fresh wound, not bandaged or soothed with oil.

1.7 Your land is desolate, your cities are burned with fire, your land is devoured by strangers before you, and you are desolate, like the destruction of strangers.

1.8 And the daughter of Zion shall be left as a shelter in a vineyard, as a den in a cave, as a besieged city.

1.9 Unless YHVH of hosts had left us a remnant, we would have been like Sodom, we would have been like Gomorrah.

1.10 Hear the word of YHVH, you rulers of Sodom; give ear to the law of our Alhym, you people of Omrah.

1.11 Why do you multiply your sacrifices to me? says YHVH. I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams and the milk of the fattened ones. I have not desired the blood of bulls, of lambs, and of goats.

1.12 For you have come to see whose face it is that demands this of you, Rameses, who tramples on my walls.

1.13 You shall not add, bring a vain offering, incense of abomination, it is to me a new moon and a sabbath, read a book, I will not eat fornication, and I will stop.

1.14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts have been a burden to me; I am weary and weary of bearing them.

1.15 And when you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.

1.16 Wash yourselves, be clean, put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes, cease from doing evil.

1.17 Learn well, seek justice, uphold the cause of the poor, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

1.18 Go now and see, saith YHVH. though your sins be as years, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

1.19 If you are hungry and hear the good of the land, you will eat.

1.20 But if you refuse and draw the sword, you will be devoured, for the mouth of YHVH has spoken.

1.21 How could a prostitute have a faithful city, full of justice, where justice would dwell, and now murderers!

1.22 Your money was like slag, your grandfather mixed with water.

1.23 A rebellious king, and companions of thieves, all of them love bribes and persecute, so that they do not judge the fatherless, and the widow's cause does not come to them.

1.24 Therefore thus saith ADNY YHVH of hosts, the mighty one of Israel; I will comfort Egypt, and I will avenge myself of my enemies.

1.25 And I will turn my hand upon you, and gather together your dross, and take away all your snares.

1.26 And I will restore thy judgments as at the first, and thy counsels as at the beginning. afterward thou shalt be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.

1.27 Zion will be redeemed in judgment, and her captivity in righteousness.

1.28 And he destroyed transgressions and sins together, and they that forsook YHVH were able.

1.29 For they shall be dried up from the rams which ye have desired, and ye shall dig up the strongholds which ye have chosen.

1.30 For you will be like a dead leaf, like a garden that has no water.

1.31 And the fire was kindled against the maiden, and they became a spark, and both of them burned together, and there was no quenching.

2.1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

2.2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of YHVH'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.

2.3 And many peoples shall go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of YHVH, to the house of the Alhym of Jacob; let us learn of his ways, and let us walk in his paths. for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of YHVH from Jerusalem.

2.4 And he shall judge among the nations, and rebuke many people. and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

2.5 O house of Jacob, come, and let us walk in the light of YHVH.

2.6 For the house of Jacob has forsaken you, for the east is filled with clouds like the Philistines, and the children of the nations shall be satisfied.

2.7 And his land was filled with silver and gold, and there was no end to his treasures; and his land was filled with horses, and there was no end to his chariots.

2.8 And his land shall be filled with idols, the work of his hands. they shall worship that which his fingers have made.

2.9 And let a man bow down, and a man be humbled, and do not lift him up to them.

2.10 Come to the stone and bury it in the dust from the fear of YHVH and from the splendor of his majesty.

2.11 The eyes of the lofty ones are humbled, and the loftiness of men is brought low, and YHVH alone shall be exalted in that day.

2.12 For the day of YHVH of hosts is upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up and humbled.

2.13 And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan.

2.14 And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up,

2.15 And upon every high tower, and upon every wall in the form of

2.16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant ships.

2.17 And the haughtiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low, and YHVH alone shall be exalted in that day.

2.18 And the idols shall utterly pass away.

2.19 And they came into narrow caves and into holes of the ground for fear of YHVH, and for the glory of his majesty when he arose to the earth.

2.20 In that day a man will throw away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which they made for him to worship, to the moles and to the bats.

2.21 To enter into the narrow clefts and the clefts of the rocks, for the fear of YHVH, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake the earth.

2.22 Cease ye from the man that hath breath in his nostrils. for what is he accounted of?

3.1 For behold, ADNY YHVH of hosts doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the staff and the support, the whole support of bread, and the whole support of water.

3.2 A mighty man, and a man of war, a judge, and a prophet, and a sorcerer, and an elder.

3.3 A captain of fifty, and a wise man, and a counselor, and a wise man, and a wise man, whispered.

3.4 And I will give young men as their princes, and deceit shall rule over them.

3.5 And the people came near, one against another, and one against another. the young man fought against the old, and the weak against the strong.

3.6 If any man take hold of his brother, of his father's house, he shall be our captain, and this stumbling block shall be under your hand.

3.7 He will bear it in that day, saying, I will not be a Cushite; and in my house there is neither bread nor clothing; thou shalt not make me a ruler of the people.

3.8 For Jerusalem is become a desolation, and Judah is fallen. because their tongue and their doings are against YHVH, despite the affliction of his glory.

3.9 The knowledge of their faces has been revealed to them, and their sin has been revealed like Sodom; it has not been destroyed. Woe to their soul, for they have rewarded them evil.

3.10 The righteous said, "It is good, for they will eat the fruit of their deeds."

3.11 Woe to the wicked, for the recompense of his hands shall be done to him.

3.12 My people have gone astray, and their wives have taken their wives with them. My people have gone astray, and they have swallowed up the way of your pleasures.

3.13 We stand in YHVH's controversy, and we stand in judgment of the peoples.

3.14 YHVH will come in judgment with the elders of his people and his princes, and you have burned the vineyard, you have robbed the poor in your houses.

3.15 You oppress my people, and grind the faces of the poor, says ADNY YHVH of hosts.

3.16 And YHVH said, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with bowed necks, and wink with their eyes, they shall go astray, and shall trample with their feet.

3.17 And the servant of YHVH shall be a shepherd of the daughters of Zion, and YHVH shall be a shepherd of the daughters of Zion.

3.18 In that day YHVH will take away the glory of the scepters, the scepters, and the scepters.

3.19 The ordinations and the service and the poisonings

3.20 The glories and the marches and the connections and the houses of the soul and the spells

3.21 The rings and the nosebleeds

3.22 The picks and the envelopes and the handkerchiefs and the engravings

3.23 And the scrolls, and the sheets, and the veils, and the foils

3.24 And there shall be under the name of Mac, and under the girdle of a girdle, and under the work of a girdle of a girdle of sackcloth, for under the beauty of beauty.

3.25 Your slain shall fall by the sword, and your might in war.

3.26 And we and Abul Phatyaha, and the land shall be inhabited.

4.1 And seven women took hold of one man in that day, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel. only let thy name be called upon us, take away our reproach.

4.2 In that day the plant of YHVH shall be for beauty and honor, and the fruit of the earth for excellency and for glory, for the deliverance of Israel.

4.3 And it shall be that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be holy; to him shall be said all that is written concerning life in Jerusalem.

4.4 If YHVH washes away the blood of the daughters of Zion, and cleanses the blood of Jerusalem from her blood, by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning,

4.5 And YHVH created over the whole place of mount Zion, and over the place of her dwelling place, a cloud by day, and smoke, and the pillar of fire, and a flaming flame by night. for over all the glory was a covering.

4.6 And the tabernacle shall be for a shadow by day from the sword, and for a covert, and for a hiding place from the torrent and from the rain.

5.1 I will sing to my friend a song of my uncle concerning his vineyard. My friend had a vineyard in the valley of Ben Shemen.

5.2 And he fortified it, and stoned it, and planted it with a hedge, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also hewed out a winepress in it, and made it a place for growing grapes, and made it a firewood.

5.3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray thee, between me and my vineyard.

5.4 What more can I do to my vineyard, and I have not done it? Why did I hope to produce grapes, and it is done in vain?

5.5 And now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard. take away its hedge, and it shall be trodden down; break down its wall, and it shall be trodden down.

5.6 And I will make it a bed of tea, it shall not sing, nor be silent; and the myrtle and the cypress shall grow up, and I will command the one who will pour down rain upon it.

5.7 For the vineyard of YHVH of hosts is the house of Israel, and the man of Judah hath planted his pleasures. and he hath established it for judgment. and, behold, a flock for righteousness, and, behold, an outcry.

5.8 Woe to you who come from house to house, from field to field, they will destroy you until there is no more room, and you will be left alone in the midst of the land.

5.9 In the ears of YHVH of hosts, if there are not many houses for her, they shall be greater and better than no one to dwell in.

5.10 For ten pairs of vines shall make one daughter, and a seed of hemlock shall make a place.

5.11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning, for they will pursue me with drunkenness, and intoxicating wine will inflame them.

5.12 And the harp, and the lyre, and the tabret, and the pipe, and wine, shall be their drinkers. and they shall not behold the work of YHVH, neither shall they consider the operation of his hands.

5.13 Therefore he has led my people into exile without knowledge, and his glory in times of famine, and his people in times of thirst.

5.14 Therefore Saul enlarged her soul, and opened her mouth without limit. and the glory and the honor and the pride came down, and she rejoiced in it.

5.15 And man shall bow down, and man shall be brought low. and the eyes of the high shall be humbled.

5.16 And YHVH of hosts is exalted in judgment, and the holy Alhym is sanctified in righteousness.

5.17 And they shall feed sheep according to their word, and shall devour the swords of strangers.

5.18 Woe to those who drag iniquity with ropes of the yoke, and sin as the fat of a bullock!

5.19 They say, "Let him hasten and act quickly, so that he may see and draw near, and the counsel of the Holy One of Israel may come and be known."

5.20 Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil. darkness for light, and light for darkness. bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter.

5.21 Woe to them that are wise in their own eyes, and yet are they built in their own sight!

5.22 Woe to the mighty for drinking wine, and the mighty for the feast of strong drink!

5.23 Those who justify the wicked for a bribe will take away the righteousness of the righteous from him.

5.24 Therefore as the tongue of fire devoureth stubble, and as the flame devoureth, so shall it be, and the remnant shall be as stubble, and their fruit shall go up as dust. because they have rejected the law of YHVH of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

5.25 Therefore the anger of YHVH was kindled against his people, and he stretched out his hand against them, and they smote them, and the mountains were moved, and their carcases were as the dung of the field in the midst of the fields. nevertheless his anger was not turned away, but his hand was stretched out still.

5.26 And he shall shew wonders unto the nations afar off, and shall hiss unto him from the end of the earth; and, behold, he shall come quickly.

5.27 There is no one who is weary or stumbles in him; he will not slumber or sleep, nor will the girdle of his loins be untied or the lace of his sandals untied.

5.28 Whose wings are swift, and all his bows are like the hoofs of his horses, and his wheels are of silver.

5.29 He roared like a lion, and roared like infidels, and roared, and seized the prey, and escaped, and there was none to deliver.

5.30 And he roared against him in that day like a roaring sea, and he looked toward the land, and behold, darkness was thick, and the light was dark in its corners.

6.1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw YHVH sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.

6.2 Above him stood seraphim, each with six wings. with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.

6.3 And they cried one to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is YHVH of hosts. the whole earth is full of his glory.

6.4 And the posts of the thresholds shall move at the voice of him that calleth, and the house shall be filled with smoke.

6.5 And I said, Woe is me, for I am fallen; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips. for my eyes have seen the King, YHVH of hosts.

6.6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a piece of cloth with tongs, which he took from off the altar.

6.7 And he touched my mouth, and said, Behold, this toucheth thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin atoned for.

6.8 And I heard the voice of YHVH, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said, Behold, I have sent me.

6.9 And he said unto thee, And thou shalt say unto this people, Hear ye indeed, and understand not; and see ye indeed, and see not.

6.10 The heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull, and their eyes they have closed; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and be healed.

6.11 And he said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until when shall cities be laid waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land be desolate?

6.12 And YHVH cast out man, and the forsaken increased in the midst of the earth.

6.13 And there is also her ten thousand, and she returned, and became like a burning oak, whose holy seed was cut down when she set up her monument.

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 king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.

7.2 And it was told the house of David, saying, Aram is come against Ephraim, and his heart is moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are moved before the wind.

7.3 And YHVH said unto Isaiah, Go out now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shaar the son of Jehoshaphat, to the end of the conduit of the upper pool, by the highway of the fuller's field.

7.4 And thou shalt say unto him, Be thou careful, and be quiet; fear not, and let not thine heart faint. for these two tails of smoking pipes are the fury of Rezin, and of Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.

7.5 For Aram, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah have taken counsel against you, saying,

7.6 We will go up against Judah, and we will cut it down, and we will make it our own, and we will set the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of it.

7.7 Thus saith ADNY YHVH; It shall not arise, nor be.

7.8 For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be cut off from the people.

7.9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah, if you will not believe, for you will not believe.

7.10 And YHVH spake yet again unto Ahaz, saying,

7.11 Ask thee a sign of YHVH thy Alhym, whether it be in the valley or in the high places.

7.12 And Ahaz said, I will not ask, nor tempt YHVH.

7.13 And he said, Hear now, O house of David, how little soever of you to weary men, that ye weary also my Alhym!

7.14 Therefore YHVH himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and you shall call his name with us, Alhym.

7.15 Butter and honey he eats in his own eyes, abhorring evil and choosing good.

7.16 For before the boy knows how to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land where you are will be forsaken because of its two kings.

7.17 YHVH will bring upon you, and upon your people, and upon your father's house, days that have not come since the day that Ephraim departed from Judah, the king of Assyria.

7.18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that YHVH shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost parts of the fields of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria,

7.19 And they came and rested all of them in the ravines of the ravines, and in the clefts of the rocks, and in all the ravines, and in all the ravines.

7.20 In that day shall my lord shave with a hired razor beyond the river by the king of Assyria the head, and the hair of the feet, and also the beard; it shall consume it.

7.21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall live with a cart of oxen, and with two sheep.

7.22 And it shall come to pass, that he that maketh much milk shall eat butter. for butter and honey shall all that remain in the midst of the land eat.

7.23 And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place where there were a thousand vines for a thousand pieces of silver shall be for dill and shall be for a thousand pieces of silver.

7.24 With arrows and bow shall he come thither. for the whole land shall be a thornbush and a weed.

7.25 And all the mountains that are in the wilderness shall be desolate. the fear of Shamir and Shit shall not come thither. and it shall be to him that sendeth an ox, and to him that treadeth down a ram.

8.1 And YHVH said unto me, Take thee a great roll, and write therein with a man's pen, To hasten the spoil, to be a prey, to be despised.

8.2 And I took unto me faithful witnesses, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jebarekiah,

8.3 And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a son. And YHVH said unto me, Call his name, O swift of prey, O desolate, O despised.

8.4 For before the child knew it, he cried out, "My father and my mother, he will carry away the army of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria before the king of Assyria."

8.5 And YHVH spake yet more unto me, saying,

8.6 For this people is weary of him that sent them that walk slowly, and wearied Rezin and the son of Remaliah.

8.7 Therefore, behold, YHVH brings up against them the waters of the great and many rivers, the king of Assyria and all his glory, and he shall go over all his channels, and go over all his banks.

8.8 And he passed through Judah, and passed over, and came even unto the neck of Zoar, and the span of his wings was full, and the breadth of thy land was with us unto the

8.9 Let the peoples gather and gather and listen; all the ends of the earth gather and gather, gather and gather.

8.10 Take counsel together, and break their word, and it shall not stand. for Alhym is with us.

8.11 For thus said YHVH unto me, As the hand is strong, and he hath restrained me from going the way of this people, saying,

8.12 You shall not say a conspiracy to any of these people, "Conspiracy," and you shall not fear them or be afraid of them.

8.13 You shall sanctify YHVH of hosts, and he shall be your fear, and he shall be your admonition.

8.14 And it shall be for a sanctuary, and for a stone of stumbling, and for a rock of offense to both houses of Israel, and for a snare and a trap to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

8.15 And many stumbled in them, and fell, and were broken, and were smitten, and were taken.

8.16 Create a signed Torah certificate in Lamidi

8.17 And I waited for YHVH, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I hoped in him.

8.18 Behold, I and the children whom YHVH hath given me, are for signs and wonders in Israel from YHVH of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.

8.19 And if they shall say unto you, Seek unto the fathers, and to the wise men that divine, and to the diviners; should not a people seek unto their Alhym for the living, even unto the dead?

8.20 To the law and to the testimony, if they do not say like this, which has no meaning,

8.21 And he passed through it, hard and hungry. and it came to pass, when he was hungry, that he was wroth, and cursed his king and his Alhym, and turned his face upward.

8.22 And he looked to the land, and behold, trouble and darkness, from the height of the rock, and darkness from afar.

8.23 For it is not lifted up to be firm for her now. the first was light, the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; and the last was heavy, by the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles.

9.1 ​​The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwell in the land of the shadow of death have seen a great light; a light has shone on them.

9.2 You have multiplied the nation, you have not increased the joy; they rejoice before you as with joy in harvest, when they divide the spoil among them.

9.3 For you are the head of his burden, and the scepter, like a tribe that approaches, you have cut down Midian today.

9.4 For every sun is in a tumult, and a garment rolled in blood, and the burning is like a consuming fire.

9.5 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, Mighty One, Abijah, Prince of Peace.

9.6 Of the increase of the government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to establish it, and to establish it with judgment and with righteousness from henceforth even for ever. the zeal of YHVH of hosts shall do this.

9.7 The word of YHVH is sent into Jacob, and it is fallen upon Israel.

9.8 And the people shall know that all Ephraim and Samaria dwell proudly and with a haughty heart, saying,

9.9 The bricks have fallen, but we have built with ash; the sycamores have been cut down, but we have replaced them with cedars.

9.10 And YHVH shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and shall cause his enemies to contend with him.

9.11 Aram before, and the Philistines behind, and they devoured Israel with every mouth. yet his nose turned not away, but his hand was stretched out still.

9.12 And the people returned not until they were smitten, neither did they seek YHVH of hosts.

9.13 And YHVH cut off from Israel head and tail, paw and cheek, in one day.

9.14 An old man and a proud man is the head, and a false prophet is the tail.

9.15 And the leaders of this people will be deceived, and their leaders will be devoured.

9.16 Therefore YHVH will not rejoice over his young men, and will not have mercy on his fatherless and widows; for all his heart is deceit and wickedness, and every mouth speaketh perverseness. yet his nose turneth not back, and his hand is stretched out still.

9.17 For it burns like a wicked fire, devouring the myrtle and the nettle, and setting fire to the thickets of the forest, and causing them to rise up in a cloud of smoke.

9.18 Through the transgression of YHVH of hosts the land trembleth, and the people are as the fuel of the fire. they shall not spare any man his brother.

9.19 And he judged on the right hand, and hungered, and he ate on Samuel, and they were not satisfied. they shall eat the flesh of their own seed.

9.20 Manasseh and Ephraim, and Ephraim and Manasseh together, are against Judah. ​​Nevertheless his anger is not turned away, but his hand is still stretched out.

10.1 Woe to the engravers, engravers of iniquity, and writers of labor, who write!

10.2 To pervert the judgment of the poor, and to rob the poor of my people of their right, to make widows their prey, and to despise the fatherless.

10.3 And what will you do in the day of visitation and in the day of destruction, when it comes from afar? To whom will you run for help, and where will you leave your glory?

10.4 He who does not bow down under the prisoner and under the slain will fall, yet his nose does not turn back, and his hand is still stretched out.

10.5 O Assyria, my tribe, and the staff in their hand is my wrath!

10.6 I will send him to a contemptible nation, and to a people I have passed by, to plunder and to plunder, and to trample him like clay in the streets.

10.7 But he will not imagine so, nor will he think so in his heart, but to destroy in his heart, and to cut off nations not many.

10.8 For he shall say, Are not the princes kings together?

10.9 Are we not all as Carchemish? Or as Arpad and Hamath? Or as Damascus and Samaria?

10.10 When my hand found the kingdom of the idols and their images in Jerusalem and Samaria,

10.11 For as I have done to Samaria and to Amalek, so will I do to Jerusalem and to Naphtali.

10.12 And it shall come to pass, when YHVH hath performed all his work upon mount Zion and upon Jerusalem, that I will punish the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the excellency of his high looks.

10.13 For he said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom I am built, and I will remove the bounds of the peoples, and their future I will destroy, and I will bring down the inhabitants like a mighty man.

10.14 And you shall be found as a nest in my hand for the multitude of the nations, and as one gathereth eggs, I have gathered them that are forsaken of all the earth; and none shall wander, nor flap their wings, nor chirp.

10.15 The axe will boast of its hewer, if the saw will boast of its handle as if it were a tribe, and those who lift it up as if it were a branch, not a tree.

10.16 Therefore ADNY YHVH of hosts shall send leanness in his fat ones, and under his burden shall he burn, as the burning of a fire.

10.17 And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his holiness for a flame and a burning, and it shall devour and consume him, and keep him in one day.

10.18 And the glory of his forest and of his Carmel shall be consumed, from soul to flesh, and shall be as a scalding fire.

10.19 And the rest of the trees of the forest shall be numbered, and a young man shall write them.

10.20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and the escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more lean upon his sword, but shall lean upon YHVH, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

10.21 The remnant of Jacob shall return unto the mighty Alhym.

10.22 For though your people Israel were as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant shall return to them, diligent and diligent, overflowing with righteousness.

10.23 For ADNY YHVH of hosts hath made a full end, and a full end, in the midst of all the earth.

10.24 Therefore thus saith ADNY YHVH of hosts; Fear not, my people, that dwellest in Zion. for the Assyrian shall smite thee with his rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.

10.25 For in a little while the wrath and my fury will be lessened and ended upon their torment.

10.26 And YHVH of hosts shall stir up against him a scourge, like the scourge of Midian, with a raven's horn. and he shall strike him upon the sea, and shall carry him away by the way of Egypt.

10.27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and shall be lifted up from off thy neck, and the shame shall be upon thy face.

10.28 He came upon a time when he passed through Migron to Michmash, he deposited his weapons.

10.29 Passed through Geva Melon, we have anxiety, the height of Givat Shaul, try it.

10.30 Your voice is loud, O daughter of Galim, listen to Lisha, the poor, the helpless.

10.31 Wandering from Demna, the back-sitters dared

10.32 Today, in the morning, he will wave his hand on the mountain of Beth Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

10.33 Behold, ADNY YHVH of hosts will smite the glorious branch with a rod, and the lofty ones shall be cut down, and the lofty ones shall be brought low.

10.34 And the thickets of the forest shall be cut down with iron, and Lebanon shall fall with a mighty hand.

11.1 And there came forth a ram out of the stem of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots was Jephthah.

11.2 And the Spirit of YHVH 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 YHVH.

11.3 And he shall smell in the fear of YHVH. and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears.

11.4 And he shall judge the poor with righteousness, and reprove in the plain 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 the sea of ​​wickedness.

11.5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faith the girdle of his reins.

11.6 And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard with the kid, and the calf and the fatling and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

11.7 The cow and the bear will feed together, their young will lie down, and the lion will eat straw like the ox.

11.8 And he that suckleth shall be in the den of the asps, and in the den of adders. his hand shall be cut off.

11.9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain. for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of YHVH, as the waters cover the sea.

11.10 And it shall come to pass in that day, that there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for a wonder unto the people, to whom the Gentiles shall seek, and his offering shall be glorious.

11.11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that YHVH 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 Mush, and from Mellem, and from Ner, and from Hamath, and from the isles of the sea.

11.12 And he shall shew wonders unto the nations, and shall gather together the outcasts of Israel, and the slain of Judah, from the four corners of the earth.

11.13 And the envy of Ephraim shall depart, and the bands of Judah shall be cut off. Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not oppress Ephraim.

11.14 And they shall fly upon the shoulder of the Philistines toward the sea; together they shall despise the children of the east, Edom and Moab, the hand of their hand, and the children of Ammon, their discipline.

11.15 And YHVH rendeth the tongue of the Egyptian sea, and lifteth up his hand upon the river in the strength of his spirit, and smiteth it into seven rivers, and causeth it to flow in the sand.

11.16 And there shall be a highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left from Assyria, as there was for Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.

12.1 And you will say in that day, I will praise you, O YHVH, because you have comforted me, your anger has been kindled against me, and you have comforted me.

12.2 Behold, I will trust in YHVH my salvation, and will not be afraid. for YHVH is my strength and my song, and he is become my salvation.

12.3 And you shall draw water in the wilderness from the springs of salvation

13.1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw.

13.2 On the mountain of the mighty, they lifted up their voice, they lifted up their hand, and the gates of the rich came.

13.3 I have commanded my sanctuary, I have also called my mighty ones to my mouth, I have rejoiced in my glory.

13.4 The sound of a multitude in the mountains, the likeness of a great people, the noise of the kingdoms of the nations being gathered together. YHVH of hosts is the commander of the army of war.

13.5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, YHVH, and the weapons of his wrath, to destroy the whole earth.

13.6 Howl, for the day of YHVH is near, as a demon from my midst shall come.

13.7 Therefore all hands shall be feeble, and every man's heart shall melt.

13.8 And the labor pains shall be troubled, and the bands of the womb shall be broken, as a woman in travail; they shall be afraid, one to another; their faces shall be astonied, their faces shall be as the faces of the flames.

13.9 Behold, the day of YHVH cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to destroy the land, and her sin thereof, and to destroy it out of her.

13.10 For the stars of heaven and their constellations shall not give their light. the sun shall be darkened when he goeth forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

13.11 And I will punish the world for its evil, and for the wicked for their iniquity. and I will bring down the pride of the proud, and the haughtiness of the tyrants.

13.12 I will honor a man of gold and a man of Ophir's stain.

13.13 Therefore the heavens will be moved, and the earth will tremble out of its place, because of the transgression of YHVH of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

13.14 And he shall be as a driven deer, and as a flock that is not gathered together. they shall turn every one to his own people, and they shall flee every one to his own land.

13.15 Everyone who is found will be stabbed, and everyone who is destroyed will fall by the sword.

13.16 And their enemies shall be scattered before their eyes. their houses shall be desolate, and their wives shall be ravished.

13.17 Behold, I will set up a standard against them, in which silver shall not be esteemed, and gold shall not be desired.

13.18 And the bows of the young men shall be broken, and the fruit of the womb they shall have no pity on, neither shall their eye spare.

13.19 And Babylon shall be the pride of the kingdoms of the glory of the Chaldeans, as when Alhym overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

13.20 It shall not be inhabited forever, nor shall it be inhabited from generation to generation; neither shall the Arab dwell there, neither shall the wicked lie there.

13.21 And there shall fleets lie down, and their houses shall be filled with brethren. and daughters of ostriches shall dwell there, and goats shall dance there.

13.22 And he answered, He is near to come, and His days shall not prolong.

14.1 For YHVH will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and will place them in their own land, and will cause the stranger to dwell among them, and they shall be joined to the house of Jacob.

14.2 And they shall take the nations, and bring them to their place. and the house of Israel shall dwell in the land of YHVH for bondmen and bondwomen. and they shall return to their captivity, and shall come down to their tents.

14.3 And it shall come to pass in the day that YHVH shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy wrath, and from the hard service in which he made thee serve.

14.4 And you took up this parable against the king of Babylon, and said, How is the Sabbath approached, the Sabbath of Medeba?

14.5 YHVH has broken the staff of the wicked, a tribe of proverbs.

14.6 A plague upon the nations in their past, a plague that never ceases, a plague that descends upon the nations in their anger, a persecution without darkness.

14.7 Rest in peace, all the earth is broken into song.

14.8 Even the cypresses rejoiced over you, the cedars of Lebanon, since you lay down, no recognition has risen against us.

14.9 Sheol from below has been angry with you for your coming; it has stirred up ghosts for you; all the treasures of the earth have been raised from their thrones; all the kings of the nations have been raised from their thrones.

14.10 They will all answer and say to you, “You too are sick like us, and you have become like us.”

14.11 Go down to Sheol, your glory, your slain, your corpses will be destroyed in your place, and the worm will cover you.

14.12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O son of dawn! How art thou cut off from the earth, dominating over nations!

14.13 And thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend above the stars of heaven, and I will sit upon the mount of Moab, in the sides of the north.

14.14 I will raise my platform high above the earth.

14.15 But you will go down to Sheol, to the depths of the pit.

14.16 Those who look at you will watch you, they will observe you. This man is a troubler of the earth, a troubler of kingdoms.

14.17 There the world is like a wilderness, and its cities are desolate, its prisoners are not opened.

14.18 All the kings of the nations lie in glory, each in his own house.

14.19 And you have cast yourself out of your grave like a detestable thing, clothed with the slain, with swords drawn, going down to the stones of the pit, like a slain carcass.

14.20 You will not be united with them in burial, for your land has been destroyed, you have killed your people. The seed of the wicked will not be called forever.

14.21 They prepared a slaughter for their children because of the iniquity of their fathers, lest they should rise and inherit the land, and fill the face of the world with cities.

14.22 And I will rise up against them, saith YHVH of hosts, and will cut off from Babylon a name, and a remnant, and a grandson, and a grandson's son, saith YHVH.

14.23 And I will make it a possession of a grove, and of pools of water, and will sweep it with the broom of destruction, saith YHVH of hosts.

14.24 YHVH of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have formed, so it shall be, and as I have counseled, so it shall stand.

14.25 To break Assyria in my land, and upon the mountains of our pastures, and to remove them from them, and to suffer from them, as they were removed.

14.26 This is the counsel that is given over the whole earth, and this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.

14.27 For YHVH of hosts hath counselled, and who can break it? and his hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?

14.28 In the year that King Ahaz died, this burden was

14.29 Rejoice not, O Philistia, because a tribe is broken. for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a viper, and his fruit a flying serpent.

14.30 And the poor and needy shall surely lie down, and the famine shall consume thy root and thy remnant.

14.31 The wailing of the gate, the cries of the city, the fading of all Philistia, for out of the north comes a smoke, and there is no one left in his appointed time.

14.32 And what shall the angel of the Gentiles answer? For YHVH hath founded Zion, and in her shall he dwell the poor of his people.

15.1 The burden of Moab, for in the night the city of Moab is as if it were plundered, for in the night the walls of Moab are as if plundered.

15.2 The house is gone up, and the high places are lifted up to weep over Nebo, and over Midba. Moab shall howl, and all his head shall be bald. every old man shall be ashamed.

15.3 In its streets they gird sackcloth on its roofs, and in its streets a weeping bride descends.

15.4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elah shall cry, even to Jahaz shall their voice be heard. therefore shall the loins of Moab be ashamed. his soul shall be consumed in him.

15.5 My heart for Moab cries out for help, for the chariot of the three-horse chariot is in distress. For the one who goes up to the mountain with weeping will go up there. For the way of the horns, the cry of destruction will stir him up.

15.6 For the water of the leopards shall be of the name of YHVH. for the grass is dry, and the green grass is gone.

15.7 Therefore he made a remnant, and they were numbered by the river of the Arabah, and they were carried away.

15.8 For the cry has gone round about the border of Moab, even to Egil, it howls, and to the well of rams it howls.

15.9 For the waters of Dimon are full of blood. for I will bring more upon Dimon, to loose the lion of Moab, and to the remnant of the land.

16.1 Send forth a parable of the rocky land from the wilderness to the mount of the daughter of Zion.

16.2 And it shall be as a wandering bird that casteth away its nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be from Maab to Arnon.

16.3 Bring counsel, do evil, I have made your shadow whole in the midst of the noonday, my secrets are rejected, wander not to be discovered.

16.4 They shall dwell in thee, the outcasts of Moab. be thou a refuge for them from the robber. for they are no more, they are all gone, they are consumed, they are trampled down from the earth.

16.5 And a throne was prepared in favor, and he sat upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging and seeking justice and speeding righteousness.

16.6 We have heard of the pride of Moab, that he is exceedingly proud. his pride, and his arrogance, and his transgression, are not like ink.

16.7 Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, the bride; howl for the Ashdodites, the wall of Hareshah. they shall speak but be troubled.

16.8 For the vine of the house of Israel is afflicted, and the vine of the house of the nations is afflicted. they have smitten her with their horns, even unto Jazer. they have touched her, they have wandered in the wilderness, her branches are forsaken, they have passed over the sea.

16.9 Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer, O vine, where I have watered you; my tears of reckoning and my tears will not be forgotten, for your summer and your harvest are overshadowed by the sound of the trumpet.

16.10 And joy and gladness shall be gathered from Carmel. and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall wine be shaken in the winepresses, neither shall the way be trodden down. I have returned.

16.11 Therefore the bowels of Moab shall be like a harp, and my belly shall be like a battered wall.

16.12 And it came to pass, when it seemed that Moab was weary of the platform, and came to his sanctuary to pray, and could not

16.13 This is the word that YHVH has spoken to Moab since that time.

16.14 And now YHVH hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of a hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be taken away from all the great multitude; and there shall remain a small remnant, though it be a great multitude.

17.1 The burden of Damascus, behold, Damascus is taken from the city, and is become a spoil.

17.2 The cities of Arar are left for flocks, and they lie down, and none makes them afraid.

17.3 And the fortress of Ephraim shall be taken away, and the kingdom of Damascus, and the remnant of Syria, shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith YHVH of hosts.

17.4 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the glory of Jacob shall be diminished, and the fat of his flesh shall wax lean.

17.5 And it shall be as one gathereth the corn, and soweth the chaff. and he shall reap it, and it shall be as one that gathereth chaff in the valley of Rephaim.

17.6 And there shall remain in it a bough like the bud of an olive tree, two or three berries on the top of a branch, four or five on its branches, and it shall bear fruit, saith YHVH Alhym of Israel.

17.7 In that day shall a man look to his work, and his eyes shall look to the Holy One of Israel.

17.8 And he shall not come to the altars, the work of his hands, nor shall he look upon that which his fingers have made, neither shall he see the idols nor the idolaters.

17.9 In that day the cities of their strength shall be as the desert of the deaf and the deaf-mute, which they left before the children of Israel, and shall be desolate.

17.10 Because you have forgotten the Alhym of your salvation, and have not remembered the Rock of your strength, therefore you will plant the plants of pleasant plants, and you will sow them with a foreign song.

17.11 In the day you plant, you will flourish, and in the morning your seed will flourish, but in the day of trouble and human suffering you will reap.

17.12 Oh, the multitude of many peoples, they shall roar like the roaring of the sea, and the noise of the nations, like the noise of mighty waters!

17.13 The nations roar like the roar of many waters, and he rebukes him, and flees from afar, and pursues him, like the rustling of mountains before the wind, and like a whirlwind before the whirlwind.

17.14 At evening, behold, it is dark before morning. This is not the portion of our horses, nor the lot of our plunder.

18.1 O land of the sound of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Cush,

18.2 He sent messengers by the sea, and ships of war upon the waters; swift messengers went to a nation that was abominable and rebellious, to a people terrible from thence, a nation that was broken in pieces and crushed, whose land the rivers had despised.

18.3 All you who live in the world and who dwell in the land, you will see as the mountains are shaken, and you will hear as a trumpet is blown.

18.4 For thus saith YHVH unto me, I will be silent, and I will be silent in my chambers, as the heat of the morning, and the light upon me, as the dew in the heat of harvest.

18.5 For before the harvest there is a spot of blossom, and before the camel's shoulder there is a bud, and the scorners are cut down with pruning hooks, and the forsaken he will take away with a spade.

18.6 They shall be left together for the mountain eagle and for the beasts of the earth; and the eagle shall be consumed with it, and all the beasts of the earth shall be scorned for it.

18.7 At that time shall a Jubilee be given unto YHVH of hosts, a people that is a rebellious and rebellious people, and a terrible people. from henceforth a nation of many nations, and of many that despise the rivers, their land, unto the place of the name of YHVH of hosts, mount Zion.

19.1 The burden of Egypt, behold, YHVH rideth upon a light burden, and cometh into Egypt. and the idols of Egypt shall tremble before him, and the heart of Egypt shall melt within him.

19.2 And I will stir up strife in Egypt, and they shall fight every man against his brother, and every man against his neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom.

19.3 And the spirit of Egypt was consumed within him, and his counsel was swallowed up. and he consulted with the idols, and with the familiar spirits, and with the fathers, and with the soothsayers.

19.4 And I will make Egypt drunk by the hand of a cruel lord, and a strong king shall rule over them, saith ADNY YHVH of hosts.

19.5 And they shall drink water from the sea, and the river shall be dried up and dried up.

19.6 And they have neglected the rivers, they have become thin, and have destroyed the brooks of the reeds, and the ends of the camels have withered.

19.7 Wake up to light according to light, and every seed of light will wither and wither, and will not be.

19.8 And we the fishermen mourn, all of you who cast the line, and those who ride on the water, mourn.

19.9 And the servants of the linen clothed with hisses, and the weavers of the holes,

19.10 And there were drunkards oppressing all the workers of hire, lakes of soul.

19.11 But the wise men of Zoan, the counsellors of Pharaoh, are foolish counsel. how can you say to Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, I am the son of the kings of old?

19.12 Now therefore, let thy wise men tell thee, and let them know what YHVH of hosts hath purposed against Egypt.

19.13 The princes of Zeon are taken, the princes of Neph are carried away, they have led Egypt astray, the border of Shebatia.

19.14 YHVH will send a deceitful spirit into the midst of them, and they will lead Egypt astray in all its ways, as a drunkard misleads in his vomit.

19.15 And there shall be no work for Egypt, which shall be done head and tail, paw and claw.

19.16 In that day Egypt will be like women, terrified and afraid because of the hand of YHVH of hosts, which he waves over it.

19.17 And the land of Judah shall be a prey unto the Egyptians. every one that mentioneth it shall be afraid of the counsel of YHVH of hosts, which he hath counselled against him.

19.18 In that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear to YHVH of hosts. The city of destruction shall say to one,

19.19 In that day there shall be an altar to YHVH in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof unto YHVH.

19.20 And it shall be for a sign and for a witness to YHVH of hosts in the land of Egypt. for they shall cry unto YHVH because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a savior and a great one, and shall deliver them.

19.21 And YHVH was known unto the Egyptians. and the Egyptians knew YHVH in that day, and offered sacrifices and offerings, and vowed vows unto YHVH, and fulfilled them.

19.22 And YHVH smote Egypt, smiting and healing them. and they returned unto YHVH, and he was gracious unto them, and healed them.

19.23 In that day there shall be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and Assyria shall come into Egypt, and Egypt into Assyria. and the Egyptians shall serve Assyria.

19.24 In that day Israel will be a third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth.

19.25 Which YHVH of hosts blessed, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.

20.1 In the year Tartan came to Ashdod, and Sargon king of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod, and took it.

20.2 At that time YHVH spake by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go, and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and take off thy shoe from off thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.

20.3 And YHVH said, As my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years, so shall it be for a sign and for a wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia.

20.4 So shall the king of Assyria lead away the captives of Egypt, and the captives of Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, and with their nakedness uncovered, the nakedness of Egypt.

20.5 And they shall cut off their head, and shall be ashamed of their eyes, and their glory shall be from Egypt.

20.6 And the inhabitant of this island shall say in that day, Behold, this is our face, to whom we fled for help to escape from the king of Assyria. and how shall we escape?

21.1 A burden from the desert, from the stormy seas of the Negev, to pass through the desert, coming from a terrible land.

21.2 The traitor has told me a harsh story, the traitor, and the robber a robber. I have heard the cries of Elam, the oppressor of Mede, all her sighing.

21.3 Therefore my loins are filled with trembling; pangs have taken hold of me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; I am afraid, and I am afraid of the visions.

21.4 My heart has gone astray, you have made me afraid of the dance of my desires.

21.5 The table was set, the feast was celebrated, the ministers arose, the anointing was given.

21.6 For thus saith YHVH unto me, Go, stand thou in the watchtower, which shall see, and say,

21.7 And he saw a chariot with a pair of horsemen, a chariot of asses, a chariot of camels, and he listened attentively, very attentively.

21.8 And Aria cried out on the watchtower of my lord, I stand continually by day, and at my watch I am stationed all the nights.

21.9 And, behold, this one came riding upon a pair of horsemen, and answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, and all the graven images of her gods are broken to the ground.

21.10 I have declared to you from Mesopotamia and Ben Gerani, that which I have heard from YHVH of hosts, the Alhym of Israel.

21.11 A burden like unto me, called from the mountain, which keepeth what by night, which keepeth what by night.

21.12 He said, "You are the watchman morning and night, if you have any trouble with him, return to him."

21.13 Evening burden in the forest in the evening we hung up the tents of Dedanim.

21.14 For the thirsty, the water-drinking inhabitants of the land of Tima, with their bread, have gone before him.

21.15 For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the violence of war.

21.16 For thus said YHVH unto me, In another year or two, and all the glory of the potter shall be finished.

21.17 And the remnant of the number of the mighty men of the children of Kedar shall be diminished. for YHVH Alhym of Israel hath spoken it.

22.1 The burden of the valley of vision, what is the matter with you, that you have gone up to the housetops?

22.2 The city of Holiness is full of joy, the city of joy; your slain are not slain with the sword, nor killed in battle.

22.3 All your officers have wandered together, from the bow they have bound; all your companions have bound together, they have fled from afar.

22.4 Therefore I said, "Shut up from me, O my people, and weep not, and make no haste to comfort me for the breast of the daughter of my people."

22.5 For it is a day of trouble, and of trouble, and of confusion, for ADNY YHVH of hosts in the valley of vision, a cold roaring, and a howling to the mountain.

22.6 And Elam carried away the dung with chariots of men, and the wall of Ara was a shield.

22.7 And the choice of thy valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall drink the wine.

22.8 And he uncovered the veil of Judah, and looked on that day toward the arms of the house of the forest.

22.9 And you saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many, and gathered together the waters of the lower pool.

22.10 And you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses were broken down for the fortification of the wall.

22.11 And you made a pool among the Hamathites by the waters of the old pool, and you did not look to Isaiah, and you did not see him from afar.

22.12 And ADNY YHVH of hosts shall call in that day to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth.

22.13 And behold, joy and gladness, killing oxen and slaughtering sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine, eating and drinking, for tomorrow we die.

22.14 And it shall be revealed in the ears of YHVH of hosts, whether this iniquity shall be atoned for until ye die, saith ADNY YHVH of hosts.

22.15 Thus saith ADNY YHVH of hosts; Go, and come unto this poor man, even unto Shebna, which is upon the house.

22.16 What hast thou here? and who hast thou here? that thou hast hewn out for thyself a sepulchre here, and hewed out his sepulchre in the rock, and made a tabernacle for him.

22.17 Behold, YHVH shall shake thee with a mighty shaking, and thy head with a mighty shaking.

22.18 Your crown will be crowned with a crown of gold, to a land of broad hands, where you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be the disgrace of your master's house.

22.19 And he will cast you out of your place, and from your position he will destroy you.

22.20 And it came to pass on that day, that I called my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,

22.21 And I will clothe him with your robe, and I will strengthen him with your sash, and I will commit your government into his hand, and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

22.22 And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder. and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.

22.23 And I will fasten him in a sure place, and he shall be a throne of glory to his father's house.

22.24 And they hanged upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the offspring, every small vessel, from the vessels of the basins even to all the vessels of the harp.

22.25 In that day, saith YHVH of hosts, the peg that is fastened in a sure place shall be broken, and shall fall, and the burden that is upon it shall be cut off. for YHVH hath spoken it.

23.1 The ships of Tarshish lamented, "A heavy burden!" For plunder from the house of Mevo, from the land of the Cushites, has been revealed to them.

23.2 The blood of the inhabitants of the isle of merchantmen, Sidon, beyond the sea, is poured out.

23.3 And by many waters the dawn of harvest shall sow its seed, and the light of its harvest shall be, and it shall be the merchandise of the nations.

23.4 Be ashamed of Sidon, for the sea has said, the strength of the sea, saying, I have not labored, nor borne, nor brought up young men, I have nourished virgins.

23.5 When he hears of the Egyptians, they will be as if they had heard of a calamity.

23.6 They have passed over Tarshish, they have lamented, the inhabitants of the island.

23.7 This is your joy from ancient times; her feet will wear out from afar to live.

23.8 Who has counseled this against the narrow city of the jeweled city, whose merchants sing like Canaanites, the honorable of the land?

23.9 YHVH of hosts hath taken counsel to bring to nought the proud, to bring to nought all the honourable of the earth.

23.10 Your land is like the daughter of Tarshish, there is no more port.

23.11 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he angered the kingdoms of YHVH, he commanded Canaan to destroy its strongholds.

23.12 And he said, Thou shalt no more add to the trouble of the virgin daughter of Sidon, O Israel. arise, Hebrew, there also thou shalt have no rest.

23.13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans, this people was not Assyria, they founded it for armies, they built it in his sight, they raised up her palaces, it is there for destruction.

23.14 Howl, O ships of Tarshish, for he has robbed your stronghold!

23.15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the captivity shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. at the end of seventy years shall the captivity be as the song of a harlot.

23.16 Take your harp, my grandfather, a forgotten prostitute city, be kind to the Rebbe, play a song so that you may remember.

23.17 And it shall come to pass at the end of seventy years, that YHVH will visit Tyre, and she shall return to her idols, and commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the earth upon the face of the earth.

23.18 And it shall be a tribute, and a holy offering unto YHVH. he shall not hoard it, nor lay it up. for they that sit before YHVH shall have it, to eat to the full, and to cover the old.

24.1 Behold, YHVH maketh the earth to tremble, and maketh it desolate, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.

24.2 And he shall be as a people to a priest, as a servant to his master, as a maidservant to her mistress, as a buyer to her seller, as a bridegroom to her bride, as a wife to him who is married.

24.3 The earth shall tremble, and the land shall be desolate. for YHVH hath spoken this thing.

24.4 The earth is in mourning, the world is in mourning, the heavens are in mourning with the earth.

24.5 And the land shall lie down under the inhabitants thereof. for they have transgressed the law, they have changed the ordinance, they have broken the everlasting covenant.

24.6 Therefore they devour the land, and they that dwell therein are guilty. therefore the inhabitants of the land are consumed, and few men are left.

24.7 But the wine is wretched, the vine is wretched, all the merry of heart sigh.

24.8 Saturday, six tambourines, cease the noise of rejoicing, Saturday, six harps,

24.9 In song they shall not drink wine, bitter intoxicating drink for the drunkards.

24.10 Kiryat Tehu was broken, every entrance was closed.

24.11 There is a shout for wine in the fields of the wilderness, all the joy of the wilderness of the land.

24.12 He remained in the city where he was, and where he struck the gate.

24.13 For thus it shall be in the midst of the land, among the peoples, as the gleaning of an olive tree, as the gleaning of a woman's harvest.

24.14 They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the glory of YHVH. the waters shall rejoice.

24.15 Therefore YHVH is exalted in the isles of the sea, the name of YHVH Alhym of Israel.

24.16 From the wings of the earth we heard a song of a deer to the righteous, saying, "Shrug to me, scold me, woe to me! Clothes have been stolen, and the clothes of traitors have been stolen."

24.17 Fear and trembling and gloom be upon you, O inhabitant of the land.

24.18 And it shall come to pass, that at the sound of fear he shall fall into the pit, and he that cometh up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare. for the locusts shall be opened from on high, and the foundations of the earth shall shake.

24.19 Evil shook the earth, the earth was broken up, the earth was broken up, the earth was broken up.

24.20 The earth shall be moved like a drunkard, and shall totter like a manger. and her transgression shall be heavy upon her, and she shall fall, and shall rise no more.

24.21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that YHVH shall punish the host of the highest on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.

24.22 And they shall gather a prisoner together into a pit, and shut him up in the prison, and shall keep him many days.

24.23 And the white dust and the hot ashes shall be scattered. for YHVH of hosts reigneth in mount Zion and in Jerusalem, and before his elders is glory.

25.1 O YHVH my Alhym, you are my Alhym, I will praise your name, for you have done wonders, counsel from afar, faith, Amen.

25.2 For you have made a city a fortress, a palace for foreigners, a city that will never be rebuilt.

25.3 Therefore the people of the city of Gad will honor you; the oppressors of the nations will fear you.

25.4 For you have been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in distress, a refuge from the shadow of death, from the sword; for the wind of the oppressors is like a torrential downpour.

25.5 As the sword in Zion, the noise of strangers shall be subdued. the sword shall subdue in the thick shadow of the nightingale the tyrants shall be punished.

25.6 And YHVH of hosts shall make for all peoples in this mountain a feast of fat things, a feast of leavened bread, of fat things made with yeast, of leavened bread made with yeast, of refined

25.7 And in this mountain he will swallow up the face of the veil that is spread over all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.

25.8 He will swallow up death forever, and ADNY YHVH will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth; for YHVH has spoken.

25.9 And in that day I will say, Behold, this is our Alhym; we have waited for him, and he will save us. this is YHVH; we have waited for him; we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

25.10 For the hand of YHVH shall rest upon this mountain, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is trodden down in the waters of Dimnah.

25.11 And he spread out his hands in the midst of him, as a diver spreadeth out to swim, and brought down his pride with the multitude of his hands.

25.12 And from the height of your walls the lowly one has come down to the earth, even to the dust.

26.1 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah, A strong city, our salvation, He shall cast up walls and cover us.

26.2 Open the gates, and let a righteous nation enter, guarding the craftsmen.

26.3 Make peace with those who are near, for you are the one who trusts in you.

26.4 Trust in YHVH, my witnesses, until YHVH establish an everlasting fortress.

26.5 For YHVH will bring down the lofty city that dwells on high, he will lay it low, he will lay it low to the ground, he will bring it down to the dust.

26.6 The feet of the poor, the feet of the needy, will trample them down.

26.7 I will make a way for the righteous, and I will make a way for the righteous.

26.8 I will also entertain thy judgments, O YHVH. I have called thee for thy name, and thy remembrance is the desire of the soul.

26.9 My soul has sought you in the night, my spirit within me has been troubled; for when your judgments are righteous in the earth, the inhabitants of the world have learned.

26.10 The wicked will not learn righteousness in the land of the valley of trouble, nor will he see the majesty of YHVH.

26.11 O YHVH, lift up your hand, and let them not see visions; let them see and wither, the envy of a people, the wrath of a fire; you shall consume them.

26.12 O YHVH, you will grant us peace, for you have also worked for us all our works.

26.13 O Lord our Alhym, there is no Lord but you; in you alone we will make mention of your name.

26.14 The dead shall not live, the ghosts shall not rise. therefore shalt thou visit and destroy them, and all memory of them shall perish.

26.15 You have increased the nation, O YHVH, you have increased the nation, you are glorious, you are far away, all the ends of the earth.

26.16 O YHVH, in trouble you have been rebuked; in distress you have been rebuked.

26.17 As a woman with child, drawing near to give birth, begins to cry out in her sorrow, so we were before you, O YHVH.

26.18 Behold, we have conceived, as it were, a spirit of salvation, lest we be made an earth, and the inhabitants of the world fall.

26.19 Your dead will live, your corpses will be buried, wake up and let us rejoice, O inhabitants of the earth, for the dew of your light will fall on you, and the land of the dead will fall.

26.20 Go, my people, enter into your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself for a moment, until the wrath has passed by.

26.21 For, behold, YHVH cometh out of his place to visit the iniquity of the inhabitants of the earth upon him. and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

27.1 In that day YHVH with his hard and great and strong sword will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, and Leviathan the crooked serpent, and he will kill the dragon that is in the sea.

27.2 On that day, a pleasant vineyard was answered.

27.3 I, YHVH, will guard it for a moment; I will keep it, lest it be visited by night or day.

27.4 I have no one to give me a shield, let alone a sword in a fierce battle, in which I will kindle a fire together.

27.5 Or he will strengthen me in my stronghold, he will make peace for me, he will make peace for me.

27.6 They that come shall take root in Jacob, and shall bud, and Israel shall blossom, and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.

27.7 If you strike him, strike him, if you kill him, kill him.

27.8 In Sassah, in the midst of the battle, he conceived in his hard spirit on the morrow.

27.9 Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be atoned for, and this is all the fruit of his sin. take away his sin in his sight. all the stones of the altar shall be as the stones of a strange city, broken to pieces. the Assyrians and the Huns shall not rise up.

27.10 For the city is desolate, desolate, and forsaken like a wilderness. there shall the calf feed, and there shall it lie down, and its branches shall be cut off.

27.11 In the dry season of harvest, women will come and light it, for it is not a people of understanding. Therefore they will not have mercy on it. Its maker and its maker will not have pity.

27.12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that YHVH shall smite from the river even to the brook of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered together one by one, O children of Israel.

27.13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown, and they that were lost in the land of Assyria, and they that were cast out in the land of Egypt, shall come, and worship YHVH in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.

28.1 O crown of glory, O my reward, O Ephraim, and the blossom of a hart, his glory, which is upon the head of the valley of olive trees, full of wine.

28.2 Behold, I am strong and courageous for my Lord, like a flood of hail; the gate of the North, like a flood of mighty waters, overflowing, he has laid the earth in his hand.

28.3 The crown of the mighty ones of Ephraim will be trampled underfoot.

28.4 And the head of a hart's hart, his glory, which is upon the head of the valley of olive trees, is like the firstfruits before summer. he seeth it, he showeth it, while it is yet in his hand he devoureth it.

28.5 In that day YHVH of hosts will be a crown of glory, and a horn of glory to the remnant of his people.

28.6 And to the spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and to the strength of them that return from battle, her hair.

28.7 And these also have erred through wine and strong drink. the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink. they are overcome with wine, they have erred through strong drink, they have erred, they have committed iniquity.

28.8 For all the stores are full of vomit and excrement, without place.

28.9 Who will teach knowledge, and who will understand a rumor? My reward is from the milk of the ancients, from the demons.

28.10 For precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, little by little, little by little.

28.11 For with barbarous tongues and with another tongue will he speak to this people.

28.12 Who said unto them, This is the rest, let it alone, and this is the consolation, and I will not come and hear it.

28.13 And the word of YHVH came unto them, precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, little by little, little by little, that they might go and stumble backward, and be broken, and be smitten, and be taken.

28.14 Therefore the men of Zoan heard the word of YHVH, the proverbs of this people that are in Jerusalem.

28.15 Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have made a covenant with a flowing stream. for it is past, it shall not come unto us. for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood have we hid ourselves.

28.16 Therefore thus saith ADNY YHVH; Behold, I lay in Zion a stone, a tried stone, a precious foundation, a foundation that he that believeth shall not make haste.

28.17 And I will make judgment to the line, and righteousness to the balance. and hail shall be a refuge for lies, and the waters shall overflow.

28.18 And your covenant with death, and your presence with Sheol, shall not be broken, neither shall a scourge pass by, but ye shall be his trampling-place.

28.19 Every day he will take you away, for morning by morning he will pass by day and night, and there will be only a terror, he will understand the rumor.

28.20 For the bed is shorter than the spread out, and the veil is narrower than the gathering.

28.21 For YHVH will rise up like a mountain of floods, like the valley of Gibeon, to do his work, his work is strange, and to serve his servants, his servants are strangers.

28.22 And now, do not mock, lest your morals be strengthened. for I have heard from ADNY YHVH of hosts a decree, and a decree, upon all the earth.

28.23 Listen and hear my voice; listen and hear what I have said.

28.24 Today, the plowman will plow for the seed of Jephthah and plunder his land.

28.25 If she beautifies her face, and spreads her brow, and casts oil, and there is a row of wheat, and her hair is marked, and her hair is her boundary.

28.26 And they shall be brought to judgment by their Alhym, which he hath commanded us.

28.27 For a hoe shall not be cut in the field, nor shall a cart be driven into the field; but a hoe shall be beaten with a staff, and a field with a rod.

28.28 Bread shall be pressed, for it shall not be trodden down forever. and the wheel of his chariot and his horsemen shall not be pressed down.

28.29 This also comes from YHVH of hosts, wonderful counsel, great in wisdom.

29.1 Oh Ariel, Ariel, Kiryat Hanna, David, they shall be gathered together, year after year, the feasts shall be cut off.

29.2 And I will afflict Ariel, and she shall be a vessel and a vessel, and she shall be to me as Ariel.

29.3 And I will set a siege ramp against you, and I will build a siege ramp against you, and I will build a siege ramp against you.

29.4 And thou shalt speak lowly out of the earth, and thy speech shall be of the dust. and thy voice shall be grievous out of the earth, and thy speech shall hiss out of the dust.

29.5 And the multitude of the oppressors shall be as fine dust, and the multitude of the oppressors shall pass away as a little dust. and it shall be suddenly, and suddenly.

29.6 YHVH of hosts will come with thunder and noise, with a great voice, a whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.

29.7 And it was as a dream of a vision by night, a multitude of all the nations, the harts upon Ariel, and all her harts, and her tormentors.

29.8 And it shall come to pass, as the hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth, and is satisfied, and his soul is empty. and as the thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh, and is satisfied, and is weary, and his soul is faint. so shall the multitude of all nations be as a flock upon mount Zion.

29.9 They lingered and wondered; they played and were rewarded with wine, but not wine; they moved and were not drunk.

29.10 For YHVH hath poured out upon you a spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes, the prophets, and your seers, and hath covered their heads.

29.11 And all things shall appear unto you as the words of a sealed book, which they shall deliver to him that knoweth the law, saying, Read this, I pray thee. and I will say, I cannot; for it is sealed.

29.12 And he gave the scribe to him that knew not the law, saying, Read this, I pray thee. And he said, I know not the law.

29.13 And YHVH said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth and with their lips, and honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me, and their fear of me is taught by the commandments of men,

29.14 Therefore, behold, I will do a wonderful thing to this people, a wonderful thing indeed. and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

29.15 Woe to those who seek counsel from YHVH, and hide their counsel, and their works are in the dark; and they say, Who has seen us? and who knows us?

29.16 If you are like clay, the creature will think that the work will say to its maker, "I did not make you," and the creature will say to its maker, "I did not understand."

29.17 Is it not yet a little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into Carmel, and Carmel shall be counted as a forest?

29.18 And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of the book, and out of obscurity and out of darkness the eyes of the blind shall see.

29.19 The meek shall rejoice in YHVH. and the poor of men shall glory in the Holy One of Israel.

29.20 For the tyrant is no more, and the oppressor is no more, and all the branches of iniquity are cut off.

29.21 They that make a man to stumble in a word, and reprove him in the gate, they turn aside the righteous from his way.

29.22 Therefore thus saith YHVH unto the house of Jacob, which redeemed Abraham; Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax angry.

29.23 For when his children see the work of my hands in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the Alhym of Israel.

29.24 And the foolish in spirit shall know wisdom, and the scorners shall learn a lesson.

30.1 O rebellious children, saith YHVH, that take counsel, but not of me; and that appoint a plan, but not of my spirit, that ye may add sin upon sin.

30.2 Those who go down to Egypt have not asked for strength in the strength of Pharaoh, nor for refuge in the shadow of Egypt.

30.3 And you shall have the strength of Pharaoh, and the shadow of Egypt shall be your refuge for a plague.

30.4 For his angels and his messengers were in his presence, and he came to them.

30.5 All who are shameful to a people will not profit them, neither to help nor to profit, for you will bring shame and disgrace.

30.6 The burden of the beasts of the Negev in a narrow and rocky land, a lion and a viper, and a flying serpent, they shall carry their burdens on the shoulder of cities, and on the humps of camels, their treasure upon a people, they shall not profit.

30.7 And Egypt will help you in vain and empty words. I have called this a sabbath.

30.8 Now therefore write it upon a table of tables, and upon a book of the law, and let it be for the last day for ever and ever.

30.9 For it is a rebellious people, children who refuse to hear the law of YHVH.

30.10 Who said to the seers, You shall not see, and to the diviners, You shall not prophesy unto us, Speak unto us plainly, You shall prophesy out of thine own heart.

30.11 Turn away from me out of the way, and from the way, and cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.

30.12 Therefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel. Because ye have despised this thing, and have trusted in oppression and deceit, and have leaned upon it.

30.13 Therefore this iniquity shall be unto you as a breach broken in a high wall, whose breach shall suddenly come.

30.14 And he shall break it as the breaking of a harp, that maketh bands. he shall not pity, neither shall he find in his hammer a plow, to break out the fire of the compass, and to bring forth water out of the deep.

30.15 For thus saith ADNY YHVH, the Holy One of Israel; In your return and rest ye shall be refreshed, in quietness and confidence shall be your strength, and not your fear.

30.16 And ye shall say, Nay; for we will flee upon horses, therefore ye shall be carried away. and we will ride upon light horses, therefore shall your pursuers be light.

30.17 A thousand for the rebuke of one, for the rebuke of five, you shall try until you are left as a crown on the top of the mountain, and come down upon the hill.

30.18 Therefore YHVH will wait for your favor, and therefore he will be exalted in mercy to you. for YHVH is a Alhym of judgment. blessed are all they that wait for him.

30.19 For the people of Zion who dwell in Jerusalem weep, you will not weep; he will be gracious to you at the sound of your cry, when he hears you he will answer you.

30.20 And YHVH will give you bread of scarcity and water of scarcity, and your teachers will no longer be afraid, and your eyes will see your teachers.

30.21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way. walk in it, if ye will believe, and if ye will hearken unto it.

30.22 And you have defiled the face of your idols of silver, and the ornament of your golden mask shall flow like dung. go out and say to him,

30.23 And he will give the rain of thy seed wherewith thou shalt sow the ground, and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and fat. and thy cattle shall feed in that day in a large pasture.

30.24 And the thousands and cities, the servants of the land, shall eat in the night of bitterness, which is a strange thing, and in the east.

30.25 And upon every high mountain and upon every hill shall flow streams of water, and there shall be a great slaughter in the day of the falling of towers.

30.26 And the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be seven days, as the light of seven days. in the day that YHVH shall bind up the breach of his people, and heal the bruise of his wound.

30.27 Behold, the name of YHVH cometh from afar, burning with wrath, and heavy with his burden. his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is like a devouring fire.

30.28 And his spirit, like a river flowing up to the neck, will pass through, to shake the nations with a wave of vanity, and a bridle of error on the cheeks of the peoples.

30.29 You will have a song, a holy feast and gladness of heart, as one who goes with a flute to come to the mountain of YHVH, to the fortress of Israel.

30.30 And YHVH shall make his voice to be heard, and shall show forth his arm, with the fierceness of his anger, and with the flame of a consuming fire, hailstones, and torrents, and hailstones.

30.31 For by the voice of YHVH shall Assyria be smitten with a tribe;

30.32 And it shall be, that every one that passeth by the foundation of the city, which YHVH shall set upon him, shall fight against it with tambourines, and with harps, and with warlike instruments.

30.33 For it was prepared yesterday, and it was also prepared for the king, and it was prepared

31.1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, who trust in horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many, and in horsemen, because they are very strong; and they have not looked unto the Holy One of Israel, and have not sought YHVH.

31.2 He is also wise, and he will bring evil, and will not withdraw his words, but will rise up against the house of the wicked, and against the help of workers of iniquity.

31.3 But the Egyptians are man, and not Alhym; and their horses are flesh, and not spirit. And YHVH shall stretch out his hand, and he that helpeth shall stumble, and he that helpeth shall fall; and they shall all perish together.

31.4 For thus saith YHVH unto me, As a lion roareth, and a lion roareth for his prey, when he calleth upon him a multitude of shepherds, and is not smitten by their voice, and is not answered by their noise. so shall YHVH of hosts come down for an army upon mount Zion, and upon her hill.

31.5 As birds fly, so will YHVH of hosts defend Jerusalem, and deliver Passover and the uncircumcised.

31.6 Return to the place where the Israelites have made their graves.

31.7 For in that day every man shall despise the idols of his silver, and the idols of his gold, which your own hands have made for you,

31.8 And the Assyrian shall fall by the sword, and there shall be no man; and the sword shall devour no man. and he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be for tribute.

31.9 And his rock shall pass away from the midst of thee, and his princes shall be cut off from the midst of thee, saith YHVH, whose light is in Zion, and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

32.1 Surely a king shall reign for righteousness, and princes for uprightness.

32.2 And a man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and as a covert of streams of water in Zion, as the shadow of a heavy rock in a weary land.

32.3 And you will not be satisfied with the eyes of those who see, nor with the ears of those who hear, but will listen.

32.4 And the heart of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the foolish shall hasten to speak plainly.

32.5 The wicked shall no more be called generous, nor shall the wicked be called a fool.

32.6 For a wicked man will speak wickedly, and his heart will work iniquity to blaspheme, and to speak against YHVH a lie, to cause the hungry soul to be empty, and to give drink to the thirsty soul.

32.7 And his weapons are evil, he devises deceitful schemes to destroy the humble with lying words and with words of injustice.

32.8 And a generous man will counsel generosity, and he will be established by generosity.

32.9 Women who are at ease have risen up, who have heard my voice, and daughters who are secure, I have said.

32.10 Days after a year, you will be dismayed, for the harvest is finished, and there is no return.

32.11 They were afraid, complacency angered, confidence stripped and naked, and a girdle was girded about the loins.

32.12 On the demons of mourning, on the breasts of love, on the fruitful vine

32.13 On the land of my people shall come up a thornbush, for upon all the houses of Meshush shall be a city of joy.

32.14 For the palace is abandoned by the multitude of the city, and the wilderness is abandoned, and the caves are searched for forever, and the wild beasts are the pastures of the flocks.

32.15 Until a wind from on high come upon us, and the wilderness shall be counted as Carmel, and Carmel as a forest.

32.16 And judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall dwell in Carmel.

32.17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace, and the work of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

32.18 And my people shall dwell in a peaceful abode, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.

32.19 And the hail shall be as the hail of the forest, and the city shall be as the hail of the valley.

32.20 Blessed are you, my seed, upon all waters, which send forth the foot of the ox and the donkey.

33.1 O robber, and thou art not a robber, nor a traitor, nor hast thou been betrayed? As a robber thou shalt be betrayed, as thou wast betrayed, so shall they betray thee.

33.2 O YHVH, have mercy on us; we have waited for you; be their seed in the morning, even our salvation in the time of trouble.

33.3 At the sound of the multitude the peoples fled; at your exaltation the nations were scattered.

33.4 And he gathered your spoil, and gathered the prey, as a flock of sheep, that is full of it.

33.5 YHVH is exalted, for he dwells on high, full of judgment and righteousness.

33.6 And the faith of thy times shall be good, the salvation of wisdom. and the knowledge of the fear of YHVH is his treasure.

33.7 They cried out, "The angels of peace, O Lord, have wept."

33.8 They have breathed the Sabbath, they have gone astray, they have broken the covenant, they have destroyed cities, they have not considered man.

33.9 But the land of the Moabites is stricken, and Lebanon is withered away. Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are withered away.

33.10 Now will I arise, saith YHVH; now will I lift them up; now will I bear them up.

33.11 Be bold and fear, you will bring forth straw; your spirit will consume you with fire.

33.12 And there were peoples burning thorns, like thorns that were kindled in the fire.

33.13 Let those who are far off hear what I have done, and let those who are near know, my lady.

33.14 Fear in Zion, sins have seized trembling, flatterers, who will cause us to be consumed by fire? who will cause us to be the fires of the world?

33.15 He walks righteously and speaks uprightly, abhorring greed and oppression, a young man whose hands are supported by bribes, who stops his ears at the sound of blood, and his very eyes behold evil.

33.16 He dwells on high, on the crags of the rocks; from his height he gives bread to the faithful from his days.

33.17 The king in his beauty shall behold, thine eyes shall see a land far off.

33.18 Your heart will be filled with fear, who will tell the story, who will weigh the shekel, who will tell the towers?

33.19 You will not see a bold people, a people of deep speech, a people of mocking hearing, a tongue without understanding.

33.20 Look upon Zion, the city of our dwelling, your eyes shall see her, Jerusalem, the peaceful dwelling place, a tent that will not be moved, its stakes will not be removed forever, and all its cords will not be broken.

33.21 For if YHVH has given us a great place, a place of rivers flowing and wide, do not pass through it; I will sail, and a mighty fleet will not pass over us.

33.22 For YHVH is our judge, YHVH is our judge; YHVH is our king; he will save us.

33.23 They have abandoned your bonds, do not strengthen them, do not spread them, do not spread them, then divide them until you have plundered many Passovers, plunder them.

33.24 And let him not say, I am sick. the people that dwell therein bear the iniquity.

34.1 Come near, O nations, to hear; and listen, O peoples. let the earth hear, and the world, and all its descendants.

34.2 For the anger of YHVH is against all the nations, and wrath against all their armies. he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath given them to the slaughter.

34.3 And their slain shall be cast out, and their carcasses shall rise up in guilt, and the mountains shall melt with their blood.

34.4 And all the host of heaven shall be gathered together, and shall be laid bare as the book of heaven. and all their host shall be cut off as the withering of the vine, and as the withering of the fig tree.

34.5 For my sword is fixed in the heavens, behold, it shall come down upon Edom, and upon my people Haram, to judgment.

34.6 The sword of YHVH is filled with the blood of fatlings, with the blood of rams, and with the fat of goats, and with the kidneys of rams. for YHVH hath a sacrifice in Bezer, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

34.7 And rams shall go down with them, and bulls with horsemen. and their land shall be drenched with blood, and their dust with milk.

34.8 For the day of vengeance of YHVH is a year of peace for the cause of Zion.

34.9 And the rivers thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the soot into brimstone, and the land shall be as burning pitch.

34.10 Night and day it shall not be quenched for ever; its smoke shall ascend from generation to generation; it shall be destroyed for ever and ever; there shall be no passing away in it.

34.11 And the Kathite shall inherit it, and the Kephudite, and the Owl, and the Arabian shall dwell therein. and he shall cast a line upon it, and the stones of the sea shall be upon it.

34.12 They shall be called a people, and there shall be no kingdom. and all her laws shall be in vain.

34.13 And her palaces shall rise up, and the pots of Chemosh and Og shall be in her fortresses. and there shall be a place for jackals, and grass for the ostriches.

34.14 And the fleets met the islands, and the goats called one to another, but there Lilith rested and found rest.

34.15 There she made a nest, and fled, and hatched, and brooded in her shadow. but there the breasts of her strange wife were gathered together.

34.16 They sought out of the book of YHVH, and read, One is beautiful, no woman is lacking, her companion is not visited. for his mouth is a commandment, and his spirit is a beggar.

34.17 And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them by a line for ever. they shall inherit it from generation to generation, and they shall dwell therein.

35.1 He shall make the wilderness to see, and the wilderness shall blossom as the lily.

35.2 The flower shall blossom and be revealed, and the glory of Lebanon shall rejoice. the glory of Carmel and Sharon shall be given unto it. they shall see the glory of YHVH, the glory of our Alhym.

35.3 Strengthen the weak hands, and strengthen the feeble knees.

35.4 Say to the fainthearted, Be strong, fear not. behold, your Alhym will come with vengeance; the recompense of Alhym will come, and he will save you.

35.5 Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.

35.6 Then he will leap like a ram, and the tongue of the dumb will sing. For waters will break out in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.

35.7 And the thirsty shall be for a pool, and the thirsty for springs of water, and the wild jackals shall lie down in the reeds and grass.

35.8 And there shall be there a path, and a way, and the way of holiness, it shall be called. the unclean shall not pass over it. and it shall be a way unto them, and the wicked shall not err.

35.9 There shall be no lion there, nor fierce beasts. they shall not be found there. and they shall go forth redeemed.

35.10 And the redeemed of YHVH shall dwell, and shall come to Zion with joy, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads. they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

36.1 And it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them.

36.2 And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem with a great army to king Hezekiah, and he stood by the conduit of the upper pool, in the plain of the fuller's field.

36.3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, went out to him.

36.4 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say, I pray thee, to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?

36.5 I have spoken but with the lips, counsel and strength for war. now in whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?

36.6 Behold, you trust in the support of this bruised reed, in Egypt, on which a man leans, and it comes with his hand, and it breaks. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.

36.7 And if thou say unto me, We trust in YHVH our Alhym. is it not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said unto Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?

36.8 Now therefore, please make an agreement with my lord the king of Assyria, and I will give you a thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them.

36.9 How then can you turn away the face of one of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?

36.10 And now, behold, I am come up against this land to destroy it. YHVH said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.

36.11 Then said Eliakim, and Shebna, and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in Aramaic; for we understand it; and speak not unto us in the language of Judah in the ears of the people that are on the wall.

36.12 And Rabbah said, YHVH is your master, and to you hath my master sent me to speak these words. is it not to the men that sit on the wall, that they may eat their bread, and drink their wine with you?

36.13 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in Judah, and said, Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

36.14 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah trouble you. for he shall not be able to deliver you.

36.15 And let not Hezekiah make you trust in YHVH, saying, YHVH will surely deliver us. this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.

36.16 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria. Make a covenant with me, and come out to me, and eat every man of his vine, and every man of his fig tree, and drink every man the water of his own cistern.

36.17 Until I come and take you to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.

36.18 Lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, YHVH will deliver us. or, the gods of the nations, have delivered every man his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria.

36.19 Where is the Alhym of Hamath and Arpad? Where is the Alhym of Sepharvaim? And how has he delivered Samaria from my hand?

36.20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries, that have delivered their land out of my hand, that YHVH should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?

36.21 But they held their peace, and answered him not a word. for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.

36.22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

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 YHVH.

37.2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the son of Amoz the prophet.

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 unto the breaking forth, and there is no strength to bring forth.

37.4 It may be that YHVH your Alhym will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to reproach the living Alhym, and will reprove him according to the words which YHVH your Alhym has heard, and you will raise up a prayer for the remnant that is left.

37.5 And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah,

37.6 And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith YHVH, Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

37.7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him, and he shall hear a rumor, and return to his own land. and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

37.8 And Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria fighting against Libnah. for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.

37.9 And it was heard of Tarkhechiah king of Ethiopia, saying, He is come out to fight with thee. And he heard it, and sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,

37.10 Thus shall ye say to Hezekiah king of Judah, Let not your Alhym in whom you trust deceive you, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.

37.11 Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands to destroy them, and you will be saved.

37.12 The gods of the nations that my fathers destroyed, Gozan, Haran, Rephaim, and the children of Eden who were in Telsher, delivered them.

37.13 The king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, and the king of the city of Naaman,

37.14 And Hezekiah took the book from the hand of the messengers, and read it, and went up into the house of YHVH; and Hezekiah spread it before YHVH.

37.15 And Hezekiah prayed unto YHVH, saying,

37.16 O YHVH of hosts, the Alhym of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the Alhym, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. thou hast made heaven and earth.

37.17 Incline your ear, O YHVH, and hear; open your eyes, O YHVH, and see and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to defy the living Alhym.

37.18 Indeed, the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the lands and their land.

37.19 And he shall cast their gods into the fire. for they are no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone. and they shall perish.

37.20 And now, O YHVH our Alhym, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you alone are YHVH.

37.21 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith YHVH Alhym of Israel, Because thou hast prayed unto me to Sennacherib king of Assyria,

37.22 This is the word which YHVH hath spoken concerning this. Thou shalt laugh at thee, O virgin daughter of Zion, after thee is the head of the assembly, the daughter of Jerusalem.

37.23 Whom have you reproached and blasphemed? And against whom have you lifted up your voice? And have you lifted up your eyes on high to the Holy One of Israel?

37.24 In the hand of thy servants thou hast scorned my lord, and hast said, By the multitude of my chariots I am come up from the height of the mountains, I have gone up from Lebanon, and have cut down the height of the cedars, the choice branches thereof; and I have come from the height of the forest of Carmel.

37.25 I was cold and drank water and spent my evenings in a cup every year of the siege.

37.26 Hast thou not heard afar off, that I have made it of old, and formed it? now have I brought it forth, and it shall be for the waves to roar, hawks awake in trouble?

37.27 And their habitations were of short stature, cut down, and eaten up. they were the grass of the field, and the green herb, and the hay for the roofs, and the seed before the corn.

37.28 And I know thy sitting down, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy being angry with me.

37.29 Because you are angry with me, and your slander has come up to my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way you came.

37.30 And this shall be the sign unto thee. eat this year of the increase, and in the second year of the increase. and in the third year sow and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat of the kine.

37.31 And the remnant of the house of Judah shall take root downward, and bear fruit upward.

37.32 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and out of mount Zion shall they escape. the zeal of YHVH of hosts shall do this.

37.33 Therefore thus saith YHVH unto the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with a shield, nor cast up a mound against it.

37.34 By the way that he came he shall return, and shall not come into this city, saith YHVH.

37.35 And I will defend this city to save it for my own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.

37.36 And the angel of YHVH went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred and fourscore and five thousand. and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

37.37 And Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and dwelt at Nineveh.

37.38 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Naser his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword. and they escaped into the land of Ararat. and Eser-haddon his son reigned in his stead.

38.1 In those days Hezekiah was sick unto death. and Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith YHVH, Set thine house in order. for thou shalt die, and not live.

38.2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to YHVH.

38.3 And he said, O YHVH, remember now 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.

38.4 And the word of YHVH came to Isaiah, saying,

38.5 Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus says YHVH, the Alhym of David your father. I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; behold, I will add to your days fifteen years.

38.6 And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.

38.7 And this shall be a sign unto thee from YHVH, that YHVH will do this thing which he hath spoken.

38.8 Behold, I will bring back the shadow of the steps, which is gone down in the steps of Ahaz, ten degrees backward, and the sun shall go back ten degrees by the steps which it had gone down.

38.9 A letter to Hezekiah king of Judah, when he was sick, and he recovered from his illness.

38.10 I said, "I will go to the gates of Sheol, I will count the remainder of my years."

38.11 I said, I will not see YHVH in the land of the living; I will not see man any more with the inhabitants of the land of the living.

38.12 My generation is gone and I am far from the tent of my friends. I have kept it as a web. My life is like a needle. Day and night you will make me whole.

38.13 I have been like a lion until morning; so all my bones are broken; from day to night you will make me whole.

38.14 Like a galloping horse, I will trot, I will be like a dove, my eyes are lifted up to heaven, my Lord, my shepherd has taken hold of me.

38.15 What shall I say? And he said unto me, All my years have I made a burden in the bitterness of my soul.

38.16 My Lord, they shall live upon them, and all in them shall be the life of my spirit, and my dreams, and my eyes.

38.17 Behold, peace is bitter to me, and thou hast desired my soul, and hast destroyed it without cause. for thou hast cast all my sins behind me.

38.18 For Sheol shall not praise thee, death shall praise thee. they that go down into the pit shall not break thy covenant.

38.19 As I live, as I live, he will know you, as I do today, the father of children will tell your truth.

38.20 O YHVH, be my salvation, and my song. we will sing in the house of YHVH all the days of our life.

38.21 And Isaiah said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it upon the boil, and he shall live.

38.22 And Hezekiah said, What shall be the sign that I shall go up to the house of YHVH?

39.1 At that time Mordecai Baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, when he heard that he had been sick and had recovered.

39.2 And Hezekiah rejoiced over them, and showed them the house of Nechadah, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and all the house of his vessels, and all that was found in his treasures. there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.

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, From a far country they are come unto me, even from Babylon.

39.4 And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah said, They have seen all that is in mine house. there is nothing among my treasures that ye have not shewed me.

39.5 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of YHVH of hosts.

39.6 Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon, and there shall be nothing more, saith YHVH.

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.

39.8 And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "Good is the word of YHVH which you have spoken, saying, 'There shall be peace and truth in my days.'"

40.1 Be comforted, be comforted, my people, saith your Alhym.

40.2 Speak ye heartily unto Jerusalem, and cry unto her, For her army is full. for she is ready to be punished. for she hath received of YHVH's hand double for all her sins.

40.3 A voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ready the way of YHVH. make straight in the wilderness a highway for our Alhym.

40.4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low. and the crooked shall become a plain, and the rough places a plain.

40.5 And the glory of YHVH was revealed, and all flesh saw it together. for the mouth of YHVH had spoken.

40.6 A voice said, "What shall I call?" All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the grass of the field.

40.7 The grass of the field is withered, the grass of the field is withered, because the Spirit of YHVH blows upon it. Indeed, the grass of the people is withered.

40.8 The grass withers and the grass withers, but the word of our Alhym endures forever.

40.9 Go up to a high mountain, O bearer of good tidings, O Zion; lift up thy voice with strength; O bearer of good tidings, O Jerusalem; lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, Behold your Alhym!

40.10 Behold, ADNY YHVH will come with strength, and his seed shall inherit it. behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.

40.11 He will feed his flock, he will feed his seed, he will gather the lambs, and in his bosom he will carry the burnt offering, he will guide it.

40.12 Who has measured the waters and the heavens with the span of his hand, and all the dust of the earth with a third? and weighed the mountains in a balance, and the hills in a balance?

40.13 Who has measured the Spirit of YHVH? And who has taken his counsel will make it known to us?

40.14 Whom shall we advise, and instruct him, and teach him in the way of judgment, and teach him knowledge, and make known to us the way of understanding?

40.15 The nations are counted as a bucket, and as a balance, they are counted as a handful.

40.16 And Lebanon is not enough to burn, and its wood is not enough to burn.

40.17 All the nations are as nothing before him, as nothing and as nothingness.

40.18 And to whom will you liken him, and what image will you make for him?

40.19 The statue is carved with iron and covered with gold, and the silver is set in a silversmith's hand.

40.20 The poor man will choose a tree that will not rot; a wise man will ask him to make a statue that will not be moved.

40.21 Do you not know? Do you not hear? Do you not declare it to you? Do you not understand the statutes of the land?

40.22 He dwells on the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, who spread themselves out like the canopy of heaven, and who pitch themselves like a tent to sit on.

40.23 He who gives numbers to the judges of the earth, he has made them like this.

40.24 They shall not plant, nor sow, nor take root in the earth; their stem shall also be blown upon them, and they shall wither, and the tempest shall carry them away like stubble.

40.25 And to whom will you liken me, and whom will you say is holy?

40.26 Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these, who brings out the army by number, all of them called by name, mighty in might and mighty in power, not one of them lacking.

40.27 Why do you say, Jacob, and Israel speak, My way is hidden from YHVH, and my judgment is passed over from my Alhym?

40.28 Did you not know that if you did not listen to the eternal Alhym, YHVH, the Creator of the ends of the earth, he will not grow weary or weary? There is no searching out of his wisdom.

40.29 He gives power to the weary, and the powerless increase.

40.30 And the youths shall fly away and be weary, and the young men shall stumble and stumble.

40.31 And the children of YHVH shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not be faint.

41.1 Let the islands be silent, and let the nations be silent; let them come together, and let them speak together, and let them come near to judgment.

41.2 Who from the east shall call righteousness to his foot? He shall bring nations and kings before him. He shall bring his sword as dust, his bow as chaff.

41.3 He who pursues them will pass by in peace, but a stranger will not come with his feet.

41.4 Who has wrought and done, calling forth praises from the beginning? I am YHVH, the first, and with the last I am he.

41.5 The islands shall see, and fear. the ends of the earth shall be afraid. they shall fear his face, and shall be afraid.

41.6 They will help each other, and each one will say to his brother, “Strengthen yourself.”

41.7 And the plowman strengthened the joint, he that smootheth the hammer, he that smote it once, he said unto the glue, It is good; and he fastened it with nails, it shall not move.

41.8 But you, Israel, are my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham, whom I love.

41.9 Who have called thee from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the chiefest thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and have not cast thee off.

41.10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your Alhym. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

41.11 They shall wither and wither; all that scorn thee shall be as nothing, and thy adversaries shall perish.

41.12 You will seek them, but you will not find them; your men of war will be as nothing and as nothing.

41.13 For I am YHVH your Alhym, who holds your right hand, who says to you, "Do not fear; I will help you."

41.14 Fear not, O worm Jacob, O Israel. I will help thee, saith YHVH, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

41.15 Behold, I will make thee a new threshing instrument, having two edges. thou shalt thresh the mountains and the hills like a threshing floor, and shalt make the hills like a threshing floor.

41.16 You will flow, and the wind will carry them away, and the storm will scatter them; but you will rejoice in YHVH, in the Holy One of Israel, and you will glory in him.

41.17 The poor and needy seek water, but their tongue is thirsty, and they drink not. I, YHVH, will answer them, the Alhym of Israel, I will not forsake them.

41.18 I will open rivers in the mouths, and springs in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.

41.19 I will set in the wilderness the cedar, the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the wilderness the cypress, the pine, and the box together.

41.20 That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together. that the hand of YHVH hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.

41.21 Bring your strife near, saith YHVH. bring your bones near, saith the King of Jacob.

41.22 They will bring and tell us what the first revelations are. What is this? They will tell us, and it will give us breath, and we will know the latter or the future. We will hear it.

41.23 Tell the signs behind, and we will know that you are gods, and you will also do good, and we will be amazed, and we will be seen together.

41.24 You are from nowhere, and your deeds are from a vast abomination, and He will choose you.

41.25 I will call upon thee from the north, and thou shalt come from the rising of the sun. he shall call upon my name, and the princes shall come like clay, and like a potter treading clay.

41.26 Who has declared from the beginning, and has known from before, and has said, "He is righteous, and no one declares, nor does anyone make known, nor does anyone hear your words?"

41.27 The firstborn of Zion, behold, they bring good tidings to Jerusalem.

41.28 And I saw that there was no man, and there was no counselor; and I asked them, and they answered nothing.

41.29 Behold, they are all iniquity, their works are wind, and their counsels are vain.

42.1 Behold, my servant, I will uphold him; my chosen one, in whom my soul delights; I have put my spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgment to the nations.

42.2 He shall not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor make his voice heard without.

42.3 A bruised reed he will not break, and a black flax he will not break; he will bring forth judgment in truth.

42.4 He will not be afraid or slow to anger until he has established justice in the land, and the islands have established his law.

42.5 Thus saith ADNY YHVH, that created the heavens and their host, that spread abroad the earth and its children, that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to walk therein.

42.6 I, YHVH, have called you in righteousness, and will hold you by the hand, and will keep you, and give you for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations.

42.7 To open the eyes of the blind, to bring out the prisoner from the prison of darkness.

42.8 I am YHVH, that is my name. and my glory will I not give to another, neither will I praise graven images.

42.9 The first things come, and new things I declare; before they spring up I will make you hear them.

42.10 Sing unto YHVH a new song, his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and fill the isles with their inhabitants.

42.11 They shall carry away the wilderness, and the cities thereof shall be inhabited. the inhabitants of Kedar shall rejoice. the inhabitants of the rock shall rejoice from the top of the mountains.

42.12 They shall give glory to YHVH, and his praise shall they declare in the isles.

42.13 YHVH will go forth like a mighty man, like a man of war; he will stir up jealousy; he will shout even to his enemies; he will prevail.

42.14 I felt that from now on I will restrain myself like a serpent in labor, guilty, and I will breathe together.

42.15 I will destroy mountains and hills and make all their vegetation desolate; I will turn rivers into islands and lakes into desolate.

42.16 And I will lead them blind by a way they know not, in paths they know not. I will turn darkness into light before them, and they that are stubborn into plains. these things have ye done, and have not forsaken.

42.17 Turn back, you who trust in idols, who say, "Our gods are a mask."

42.18 The deaf heard, and the blind looked and saw.

42.19 Who is my servant, and who is my servant, and who is my messenger? I will send him who is my servant, and who is my servant, and who is my servant.

42.20 You have seen many things, but you have not observed them; you have opened your ears, but you have not heard them.

42.21 YHVH delights in his righteousness; he will magnify the law and make it great.

42.22 And he is a people of plunder, and of plundering

42.23 Whoever among you will listen to this will listen and listen back.

42.24 Who gave Jacob to the horse, and Israel to the plunderers? Is it not YHVH? We have sinned against him, and have not walked in his ways, and have not listened to his law.

42.25 And his wrath shall be poured out upon him, and the battle shall be kindled. and it shall burn him round about, and he shall not know; and it shall burn within him, and he shall not lay it to heart.

43.1 And now thus saith YHVH, he that created thee, Jacob, and formed thee, Israel; fear not. for I have redeemed thee; I have called thee by thy name.

43.2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle on you.

43.3 For I am YHVH your Alhym, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I have given Egypt, Ethiopia, and Seba in your place.

43.4 For you are precious in my sight, honored, and I have loved you. I will give men in your place, and nations in your place.

43.5 Fear not, for I am with you; I will bring your seed from the east, and gather you from the west.

43.6 Say to the north, Give up, and to Yemen, do not oppress them; bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends of the earth.

43.7 Everyone who is called by my name, and by my glory, I created him; I formed him, I made him.

43.8 He brought forth with skin and eyes, and with deafness and deaf ears.

43.9 All the nations are gathered together, and the peoples are assembled. who among them will declare this, and will be the first to hear it? They will bring forth their witnesses, and will be justified, and will hear, and speak truth?

43.10 You are my witnesses, declares YHVH, and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me there was no god formed, and after me there shall be none.

43.11 I, even I, am YHVH; and besides me there is no savior.

43.12 I have declared, and warned, and made it known; and there is no stranger among you, and ye are my witnesses, saith YHVH, and I am Alhym.

43.13 Even from the day I am he, and there is none to deliver from my hand; I will work, and who shall restore it?

43.14 Thus saith YHVH, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. For your sakes I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all the captives, and the Chaldeans have carried you away in ships.

43.15 I am YHVH, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.

43.16 Thus saith YHVH, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters.

43.17 He who brings out the chariot and the horse, both strong and mighty, will lie down together, they will not rise; they will be consumed, they will be extinguished.

43.18 Remember not the beginnings, and understand not the beginnings.

43.19 Behold, I will do a new thing. now shall it spring up, shall you not know it? I will also make in the wilderness a way, and in the wilderness rivers of water.

43.20 The wild animals of the field will honor me, the jackals and the daughters of the wild oxen. For I have given rivers of water in the wilderness, to give drink to my people, my chosen ones.

43.21 With this people I have created for myself, they will tell my praise.

43.22 And you have not called me Jacob, but Israel has touched me.

43.23 You have not brought me your burnt offerings and sacrifices; you have not honored me; you have not served me with offerings, nor have you brought me incense.

43.24 You have not bought me anything with money, nor have you satisfied me with the milk of your sacrifices, but you have made me serve you with your sins, you have made me weary with your iniquities.

43.25 I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my sake, and I will not remember your sins.

43.26 Remember me, we were judged together; count it, that you may be justified.

43.27 Your first father sinned, and your counselors transgressed against me.

43.28 And I will profane the holy places, and will give Jacob to be an astonishment, and Israel to blasphemies.

44.1 But now hear, Jacob my servant, and Israel my chosen one.

44.2 Thus saith YHVH, He that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, He shall help thee. Fear not my servant Jacob, and Sharon, I have chosen him.

44.3 For I will pour water on the thirsty, and streams on the dry ground. I will pour out my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring.

44.4 And they grew among the grass, like ravens by the watercourses.

44.5 One will say, “I am YHVH,” and another will call himself by the name of Jacob, and another will write his hand on YHVH, and will name himself by the name of Israel.

44.6 Thus saith YHVH, the King of Israel, and his redeemer, YHVH of hosts. I am the first, and I am the last; and besides me there is no Alhym.

44.7 And who is like me, that can call and declare, and prepare for me my works, and the people of the world, and the nations, and that which shall come shall tell them?

44.8 Do not be afraid or look at him. Have I not heard you and declared it, and you are my witnesses? There is no Alhym besides me, and there is no rock that I do not know.

44.9 The makers of idols are all amazed, and their idols are of no use. their witnesses see not, nor know, that they may wither.

44.10 Who has made a god, and a carved image, that it profiteth nothing?

44.11 Behold, all his companions are withered and deaf; they shall gather themselves together from a man; they shall all stand, they shall be afraid, they shall wither together.

44.12 He wrought iron with a mallet, and wrought it in coals and in the furnaces. he formed it, and wrought it with his strong arm. he was hungry, and had no strength; he drank no water, and was weary.

44.13 A carpenter has bent a line, they will mark it with a chisel, they will make it with chisels and compasses, they will mark it and make it like the mold of a man, like the beauty of a man to dwell in a house.

44.14 He cut down cedars for himself, and took cypress and oak, and strengthened himself with the trees of the forest, and planted fir trees, and rain made them grow.

44.15 And it came to pass, that a man took thereof, and heated it, and poured it out, and baked bread, and made it into a god, and worshipped it, and made it an idol, and worshipped it.

44.16 Half of it he burned with fire; on half of it he ate flesh; he roasted it, and was filled with heat. And he said, My brother-in-law, I have seen light.

44.17 And the remnant of his idol shall worship him, and worship him, and pray unto him, and say, Save me, for thou art mine.

44.18 They will not know nor understand, for their eyes are too blind for their understanding.

44.19 And he shall not return to his heart, nor have knowledge nor understanding, saying, I have burned half of it with fire, and I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have eaten flesh with it; and I will make the rest of it an abomination, a log of wood, to worship it.

44.20 Evil is the ashes of a heart that is set on a heap, and it cannot deliver its soul, nor can it say, "Is not a lie in my right hand?"

44.21 Remember these things, Jacob and Israel, for you are my servant, I have formed you; you are my servant, Israel; do not forsake me.

44.22 I have blotted out your transgressions as a thick cloud, and your sins as a cloud. return unto me, for I have redeemed you.

44.23 Sing, O heavens, for YHVH has done it; let the foundations of the earth be joyful; let the mountains break forth; let the forest sing for joy, and every tree in it; for YHVH has redeemed Jacob, and in Israel he will glory.

44.24 Thus saith YHVH, thy redeemer, and thy redeemer from the womb. I am YHVH, which made all the corners of the heavens by myself, and the foundations of the earth by myself. who is with me?

44.25 He who breaks signs and enchantments will be disgraced; he who turns back the wise and makes their understanding foolish.

44.26 He establishes the word of his servant, and the counsel of his angels he performs, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited, and the cities of Judah shall be built, and I will raise up her ruins.

44.27 Say to the city, My sword, and your rivers, I will destroy you.

44.28 Saying to Cyrus, My friend, and all My goods shall be paid; and saying, Jerusalem shall be built, and the temple shall be founded.

45.1 Thus says YHVH to his anointed, to Cyrus, whom I have raised up in his days, to subdue nations before him, and to raise up kings. I will open before him doors, and the gates shall not be shut.

45.2 I will go before you and bring joy to generations. I will break the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron in sunder.

45.3 And I will give you the treasures of darkness, and secret places of secret places, that you may know that I am YHVH, who calls you by name, the Alhym of Israel.

45.4 For the sake of Jacob my servant, and Israel my chosen, I will call you by your name, and you will be my servant, though you have not known me.

45.5 I am YHVH, and there is none else besides me; there is no Alhym but me. I have bound you, and you have not known me.

45.6 That they may know from the rising of the sun and from the west that I am YHVH, and there is none else.

45.7 He forms light and creates darkness, He makes peace and creates evil. I, YHVH, do all these things.

45.8 The heavens above shall drop rain, and the skies shall pour down righteousness. the earth shall open, and salvation and righteousness shall spring up together. I YHVH have created it.

45.9 Woe to him who has multiplied his labor, who has made the potters of the earth, who has said, "Clay, what will you do to him who has made it?" And your work has no hands.

45.10 Woe to the father, what will you beget? and to the wife, what will you conceive?

45.11 Thus saith YHVH, the Holy One of Israel; and the makers of the signs ask me concerning my son, and concerning the work of my hands, and I will judge him.

45.12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it. I have stretched out my hands the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

45.13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and all his ways I have approved. he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captivity, not for price nor reward, saith YHVH of hosts.

45.14 Thus saith YHVH; Egypt shall come, and the merchants of Ethiopia, and Sabeans, and the men of Media. they shall pass over thee, and thou shalt be after thee; they shall go in the wilderness, and thou shalt come in the wilderness, and thou shalt bow down thyself unto thee, and shalt pray unto thee. but thou art a god, and there is no other god.

45.15 Truly, you are a Alhym who hides himself, the Alhym of Israel, the Savior.

45.16 They were ashamed and also confounded, all of them together; they walked in confusion, like plowmen carrying axes.

45.17 Israel is saved in YHVH, with an everlasting salvation. You shall not be ashamed nor confounded forever and ever.

45.18 For thus saith YHVH, that created the heavens; he is Alhym; the former of the earth, and made it; he established it; he created it, he was not in vain; he created it to abide; I am YHVH, and there shall be no more.

45.19 I have not spoken in secret, in a land of darkness; I have not said to the seed of Jacob, "Wonder at my trial." I am YHVH, who speaks righteous words, declaring the upright.

45.20 They gathered together, they came, they clashed together, the fugitives of the nations knew not, who carried the wood of their graven image, and prayed to a god that could not save.

45.21 They have declared and brought it forth, they have taken counsel together. who hath declared it from of old, since the declaration? Am not I YHVH, and there is no Alhym besides me? a righteous Alhym and a savior, and there is none besides me?

45.22 Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth, for I am Alhym, and there is none else.

45.23 By myself I have sworn, that a word shall go forth from my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return. but unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

45.24 But in YHVH I said, "Righteousness and the strength of his witnesses shall come, and all who despise him shall be cut off."

45.25 In YHVH shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.

46.1 Nebo bowed down, their strength was like that of a beast, and their burdens were like that of a beast.

46.2 They have fallen, they have fallen together; they could not deliver themselves; their soul is in captivity, and they have gone astray.

46.3 Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, that are laden with my belly, that are carried with my womb.

46.4 Even to old age I am he; even to gray hairs I will bear it; I have done it, and I will bear it, and I will endure it, and I will deliver it.

46.5 To whom will you liken me and compare me? and compare me and be likened?

46.6 They shall weigh out gold out of the bag, and silver out of the reed. they shall hire a goldsmith, and make it into a god, that they may worship and bow down.

46.7 They shall bear him upon the shoulder, they shall bear him, and set him under him, and he shall stand up from his place, he shall not be moved. neither shall he cry unto him, nor shall he answer him. in his trouble shall they not save him.

46.8 Remember this and be strong, turn back the wicked to their hearts.

46.9 Remember the former things of old, that I am Alhym, and there is no Alhym, neither is there any like me.

46.10 He declares from the beginning the end, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.

46.11 An eagle calls from the east, from a far country, a man of his own counsel. I have spoken, I have brought it about; I have formed, I will do it.

46.12 Hearken unto me, ye brave in heart, that are far from righteousness.

46.13 My nearness, my righteousness, is not far off, and my salvation is not tarrying. and I will give salvation in Zion to Israel, my glory.

47.1 Come down and sit on the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit in the land, there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called delicate and delightful.

47.2 Take millstones and grind flour, unroll your braid, uncover the fringe of your hair, unroll the market, cross the rivers.

47.3 Your nakedness will be uncovered, you will also see your shame; I will take vengeance, and I will not harm anyone.

47.4 YHVH of hosts has redeemed us, his name is the Holy One of Israel.

47.5 Sit thou still, and come into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans. for thou shalt no more be called the lady of kingdoms.

47.6 I was angry with my people, I profaned my inheritance, and you gave them into your hand. You did not show them any mercy because of their old age. You were very hard on them.

47.7 And you said, "I will be a lady forever," until you laid these things to your heart, and did not remember their end.

47.8 And now hear this, O gentle one, that dwelleth securely, saying in her heart, I am a widow no more, neither shall I know bereavement.

47.9 And these two things shall come upon thee in a moment in one day. the widow and the widower shall come upon thee in multitude, as thy mouth shall say, in the strength of thy friends very much.

47.10 And thou hast trusted in thine evil, saying, I see not. thy wisdom and thy understanding are deceitful. and thou hast said in thine heart, I am nothing.

47.11 And evil shall come upon thee, thou shalt not know the cause thereof. and YHVH shall curse thee, thou shalt not be able to atone. and a calamity shall come upon thee suddenly, thou shalt not know it.

47.12 Stand up now among your friends, and multiply your words, as you have done from your youth; perhaps you will be able to profit, perhaps you will be able to persuade.

47.13 You are weary with the multitude of your counsels; let them stand up and save you, the Creator of the starry heavens, who declares to the new moons what will come upon you.

47.14 Behold, they are as stubble, which the fire hath burned. they shall not deliver themselves from the flame. there is no coal to warm them, nor light to sit before it.

47.15 Thus have you been, when you have come to your senses, in your trade from your youth; no one has gone astray in his ways, and there is no one to save you.

48.1 Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel; and out of the waters of Judah there have come forth those who swear by the name of YHVH, and make mention of the Alhym of Israel, but not in truth or in righteousness.

48.2 For they are called out of the holy city, and trust in the Alhym of Israel, YHVH of hosts, whose name is he.

48.3 The first things have come forth from my mouth, and I have heard them; suddenly I did them, and they came to pass.

48.4 I know that you are hard, and your neck is like an iron sinew, and your forehead is bronze.

48.5 And I have told you from before you came, lest you should say, I have made a covenant with you, and I have made a covenant with you, and I have made a covenant with you.

48.6 You have heard the report of a bride, and you say, "Have you heard news from now on and news, and you did not know it?"

48.7 Now are they created, and not since, and from a day ago, and ye have not heard, lest thou shouldest say, Lo, I know them.

48.8 You have neither heard nor known, neither have you opened your ear since then, for I know that you will deal treacherously and that your belly will be filled with wickedness.

48.9 For my name's sake will I prolong my life, and my praise will I seal up for thee, that I may not cut thee off.

48.10 Behold, I have bought you with no money, and have chosen you as the firstborn of the poor.

48.11 For my own sake, for my own sake, I will do it, for how shall it be? And I will not give my glory to another.

48.12 Listen to me, Jacob and Israel, I am he, I am the first, I am also the last.

48.13 My hand also laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens. I called unto them, that they might stand together.

48.14 Gather yourselves together, all of you, and hear, who among them has declared these things? YHVH will do his pleasure in Babylon, and in the seed of the Chaldeans.

48.15 I, even I, have spoken, I have called, I have brought it, and it prospered in its way.

48.16 Come near to me, hear this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that I was there, and now ADNY YHVH has sent me, and his Spirit.

48.17 Thus saith YHVH thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. I am YHVH thy Alhym, which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee in the way which thou shalt go.

48.18 If only you had listened to my commandments, your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

48.19 And the seed of thy seed, and the offspring of thy bowels, shall be as with him. he shall not be cut off, nor his name destroyed from before me.

48.20 Go out of Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans, with a loud voice declare this, proclaim it, proclaim it to the ends of the earth, say, YHVH has redeemed his servant Jacob.

48.21 They did not thirst because of the swords. He brought them water from the rock that gushed out for them, and the rock split open and water gushed out.

48.22 There is no peace, says YHVH, to the wicked.

49.1 Hearken, O ye nations, unto me, and give ear unto the heathen from afar. YHVH hath called me from the womb, from my mother's bowels hath he made mention of my name.

49.2 And he made my mouth like a sharp sword in the shadow of his hand, which he hid from me. and he set me in a clear place, in his secret place.

49.3 And he said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will glory.

49.4 But I said, I have laboured in vain, I have exhausted my strength in vain. I have surely judged YHVH, and wrought for my Alhym.

49.5 And now YHVH hath said, I will gather Jacob to himself, and Israel shall not gather. and I will be glorified in the sight of YHVH, and my Alhym shall be my strength.

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. and I will give thee for a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.

49.7 Thus saith YHVH, the Redeemer of Israel, his Holy One, to him that despiseth the soul, to him that despiseth the nation, to him that serveth proverbs. kings shall see, and princes shall arise, and worship, because of YHVH, who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel, and hath chosen thee.

49.8 Thus says YHVH, In a time of favor I have answered you, And in a day of salvation I have helped you. I will preserve you and give you as a covenant of the people, To establish the land, To cause the desolate to inherit their heritage.

49.9 To say to the prisoners, Go forth, O ye captives, In the darkness they shall feed in the ways, And in every mouth of their flocks they shall feed.

49.10 They shall not hunger, nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor the sun smite them. for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, and by springs of water shall he guide them.

49.11 And I will make all the mountains a way, and I will make the Jordan a level place.

49.12 Behold, these shall come from afar, and behold, these from the north and from the sea, and these from the land of Sin.

49.13 The heavens shall rejoice, and the depths of the earth shall be rent. the mountains shall rejoice. for YHVH will rejoice over his people, and will have mercy on his afflicted.

49.14 And Zion said, YHVH hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.

49.15 A woman forgets the son of her womb, even they will forget, but I will not forget you.

49.16 Your statutes are on my hands, your walls are always against me.

49.17 Your sons will come out of your destruction and from your swords.

49.18 Lift up your eyes round about, and see, all of them gather together; they come to you. As I live, saith YHVH, they are all my witnesses. You shall be clothed and bound together as a bride.

49.19 For I have made thee desolate, and have made thee desolate, and the land that hath laid thee waste. for now shalt thou be desolate, and they shall be far from thy mouth.

49.20 They will say in your ears, "My son, your mind is too small for me. Come near and I will sit down."

49.21 And thou saidst in thine heart, Who hath begotten these for me? and I am desolate and desolate, a captive and a stranger. and who hath brought them up? I am left alone. Where are these?

49.22 Thus saith ADNY YHVH; Behold, I will lift up mine hand upon the nations, and upon the peoples of Syria. and they shall bring thy sons upon their loins, and thy daughters shalt thou carry upon the shoulder.

49.23 And kings shall be thy nurses, and their maids thy sucklings, the noses of the earth shall bow down unto thee, and they shall lick the dust of thy feet. and thou shalt know that I am YHVH, whose lines shall not be dried up.

49.24 He will take a strong man from a slave, and if he is a righteous man, he will escape.

49.25 For thus saith YHVH; Even my servant shall take the mighty, and the oppressor shall be delivered. and I will contend with thine adversary, and I will save thy children.

49.26 And I will feed thy people with their flesh, and they shall be drunken with their blood as with the juice of their own flesh. and all flesh shall know that I YHVH am thy Saviour, and thy Redeemer, the mighty one of Jacob.

50.1 Thus saith YHVH, Is this the book of your mother's circumcision, which I sent her? or which of the creditors, to whom I sold you? For your iniquities were ye sold, and for your transgressions hath your mother sent you away.

50.2 Why have I come, and no one has called, and no one has answered? The harvest is short, and my hands are weary, and I have no power to save. At my rebuke I will destroy the sea, and I will make rivers a desert. Their fish will stink, for there is no water, and they will die of thirst.

50.3 I clothe the heavens with pitch, and I put sackcloth as their covering.

50.4 ADNY YHVH hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to answer the wise. he wakeneth morning by morning he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

50.5 ADNY YHVH has opened my ear, and I have not turned back, nor turned back.

50.6 I gave the nation to the smiters, and my life to the robbers. I did not hide my face from calamities, but

50.7 But ADNY YHVH will help me; therefore I shall not be ashamed. therefore I have set my face like a cherub, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

50.8 My righteous one is near, who will contend with me? Let us stand together. Who is my advocate? Let him approach me.

50.9 Behold, ADNY YHVH will help me. who is he that shall inherit me? behold, they shall all wax old like a garment; the moth shall eat them up.

50.10 Who among you fears YHVH, who listens to the voice of his servant, who walks in darkness and has no helper? He trusts in the name of YHVH and relies on his Alhym.

50.11 Behold, all of you are firebrands, from the places of your passions. walk in the light of your fire, and in the passions of your passions. it was for you a fashioner to lie down.

51.1 Hearken unto me, ye that pursue righteousness, ye that seek YHVH. look unto the hewn stone, and unto the pit, and to the pit, and to the hewn stone.

51.2 Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah your mother, for I called him alone, and blessed him, and kept him.

51.3 For YHVH will comfort Zion; he will comfort all her waste places, and will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of YHVH. joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving and the voice of singing.

51.4 Listen to me, my people, and listen to me, my people. For a law will go forth from me, and I will make my judgments a light for the peoples.

51.5 My righteous one is near, my Jesus will come forth, and the seed of the peoples will judge me; in me the islands will hope, and in my seed they will long.

51.6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at 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 destroyed.

51.7 Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, and my law in their hearts. fear not the reproach of man, nor their reproach against him.

51.8 For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the moth shall eat them up like wool. but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.

51.9 Awake, awake, put on the arm of YHVH, awake, as in the days of old, of the ages of ages. Is it not she that digs up Rahab, that brings forth the serpent?

51.10 Is it not she who divides the sea, the waters of the great deep, who makes a way out of the depths of the sea for the redeemed?

51.11 And the redeemed of YHVH shall return, and come to Zion with joy, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads. they shall obtain joy and gladness; sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

51.12 I, even I, am he that comforteth you. who art thou that thou shouldest fear man that shall die, and the son of man that shall be given straw?

51.13 And you will forget YHVH your Maker, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth, and you will fear continually all day long because of the wrath of the oppressor, as he has prepared to destroy. And where is the wrath of the oppressor?

51.14 He will quickly rise to open the door, and he will not die of decay, nor will his bread be lacking.

51.15 And I, YHVH your Alhym, divided the sea, and the waves thereof roared. YHVH of hosts is his name.

51.16 And I will put my words in thy mouth, and will cover thee in the shadow of my hand, to plant the heavens, and to lay the foundations of the earth, and to say, Thou art my people, Zion.

51.17 Awake, awake, arise, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of YHVH the cup of his wrath. thou hast filled the cup of gall, thou hast drunken the cup of gall.

51.18 She has no one to guide her among all the sons she has borne, and no one to hold her hand among all the sons she has brought up.

51.19 Two, behold, I have called you, who will make you wander? The devil, and the famine, and the sword, who will comfort you?

51.20 Your children have fainted, they lie in the head of all the streets, like a raven from a raven, filled with the wrath of YHVH, the rebuke of your Alhym.

51.21 Therefore hear, I pray thee, this poor and drunkard, and not of wine.

51.22 Thus saith thy Lord YHVH, and thy Alhym that contendeth with him. Behold, I have taken out of thine hand the cup of trembling; I have filled the cup of my fury; thou shalt drink it no more.

51.23 And I will put it in the hand of thy oppressors, which have said unto thy soul, Live, and pass over, and thou shalt be as the land of Gog, and as the land of the Hebrews.

52.1 Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion; put on the garments of your beauty, O Jerusalem, the holy city. for there shall no more come into you the uncircumcised and the unclean.

52.2 Shake yourself from the dust, arise, O captive Jerusalem; let your neck be lifted up, O captive daughter of Zion.

52.3 For thus saith YHVH; Ye are sold for nought; ye shall not be redeemed for money.

52.4 For thus saith ADNY YHVH; Egypt shall go down first to sojourn there, and Assyria shall oppress them in the wilderness.

52.5 And now what have I here? saith YHVH. for he hath taken away my people for nought. they shall cry unto him, saith YHVH. and my name is continually reproached all the day long.

52.6 Therefore my people shall know my name in that day. for I am he that speaketh, behold, I am he.

52.7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings of peace, that publisheth good tidings of salvation! Say unto Zion, Thy Alhym is king!

52.8 The voice of thy watchmen shall lift up the voice, they shall sing together. for they shall see eye to eye, when YHVH shall return to Zion.

52.9 Let them break forth, they shall cry together, the swords of Jerusalem. for YHVH hath comforted his people, the redeemer of Jerusalem.

52.10 YHVH has bared his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our Alhym.

52.11 Turn away, turn away, go out from there, unclean thing, do not touch it, go out from there, you who bear the ark of YHVH.

52.12 For you shall not go out in haste, nor shall you go in haste. for YHVH will go before you, and the Alhym of Israel will gather you.

52.13 Behold, my servant shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.

52.14 When many have made a desolation upon thee, so hast thou destroyed the man of his countenance, and the glory of men.

52.15 So shall many nations be, and kings shall be astonished at him. for that which was not told them they have seen, and that which they had not heard they have considered.

53.1 Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of YHVH been revealed?

53.2 And he came up before him as a beast, and as a root out of the green earth. he had no form, nor majesty, nor comeliness, nor comeliness, nor comeliness.

53.3 He is despised and despised, every man from pains and known for his sickness; and as one who hides his face, he is despised and is not considered.

53.4 Surely he hath borne our infirmities, and carried our sorrows. yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten of Alhym, and afflicted.

53.5 And he cleanseth us from our transgressions, and oppresseth us from our iniquities. he bringeth forth our peace upon him, and in his company we are healed.

53.6 All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and YHVH hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

53.7 He drew near, and he answered, and opened not his mouth. as Jubilee to the slaughter, and Caleb before the shearing house is dumb, and openeth not his mouth.

53.8 He took away from captivity and from judgment, and who shall speak of his generation? for he was cut off from the land of the living. For the transgression of my people is upon him.

53.9 And he will make the wicked his grave, and the rich his tomb, because he has done no violence, nor is there any deceit in his mouth.

53.10 And YHVH delighteth in the afflicted. if thou puttest him in the wrong, he shall see a seed that shall prolong his days. and YHVH delighteth in his hand, he shall prosper.

53.11 He shall fear the labor of his soul, he shall be satisfied with his own understanding. the righteous shall justify my servant before many, and he shall bear their iniquity.

53.12 Therefore I will divide him with the many, and he shall divide the spoil with the mighty, in a place where he was mindful of the death of his soul, and his transgressions were numbered, and he bore many sins, and for his transgressions he shall be wounded.

54.1 The barren land did not bear, the broken land did not give birth, and my fruitful field did not languish; for the children of the wilderness are more numerous than the children of the burnt offering, saith YHVH.

54.2 Enlarge the place of your tent, and let the curtains of your dwellings stretch out. Do not be afraid. Lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes.

54.3 For you will spread out on the right and on the left, and your descendants will inherit the nations and inhabit the cities of the living.

54.4 Fear not, for you shall not be ashamed; neither be confounded, for you shall not be confounded. for you shall forget the shame of your youth, and the reproach of your widowhood you shall remember no more.

54.5 For your master is YHVH of hosts, his name is he; and your redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, the Alhym of the whole earth, he shall be called.

54.6 For YHVH hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and as a wife of youth, because thou art abhorred, saith thy Alhym.

54.7 For a small moment I forsook you, but with great mercies I will gather you.

54.8 In a moment of wrath I hid my face from you, but in the love of your mercy your lovingkindness is everlasting, says YHVH your Redeemer.

54.9 For who can keep this from me, that I have sworn? Who can keep it from me, that I have sworn in wrath against you, and that I have rebuked you?

54.10 For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be made low. but my lovingkindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith YHVH of thy mercies.

54.11 Poverty, a storm, not comforted. behold, I will smite thy stones with the edge of the stone, and thy foundations with sapphires.

54.12 And I will make thee as a wall, and thy gates as flint, and all thy borders as hewn stones.

54.13 And all thy children shall be taught of YHVH. and great shall be the peace of thy children.

54.14 Prepare yourself in righteousness; be far from oppression, for you will not fear it; and from destruction, for it will not come near you.

54.15 They will live in a place where there is no one left. Whoever lives with you will fall on you.

54.16 Behold, I have created the potter, the smith in the fire of the coals, and he bringeth forth a tool for his work. and I have created the destroyer to be a destroyer.

54.17 No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment shall condemn you. This is the heritage of the servants of YHVH, and their righteousness is of me, saith YHVH.

55.1 Woe to every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters; and he that hath no money, come ye, break bread, and eat; and come ye, break wine and milk without money, and without price.

55.2 Why do you weigh out money for nothing, and why do you not satisfy your hunger for nothing? Hearken unto me, and eat ye good, and delight yourselves in the fatness of your soul.

55.3 Incline your ear, and come unto me. hear, and your soul shall live. and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the steadfast love of David.

55.4 Behold, I have given him as a leader to the nations, and a commandment to the peoples.

55.5 Behold, you will call upon a nation you do not know, and a nation you do not know will run to you, for the sake of YHVH your Alhym and the Holy One of Israel, for your glory.

55.6 Seek YHVH while he may be found; call upon him while he is near.

55.7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. and let him return unto YHVH, and he will have mercy upon him; and unto our Alhym, for he will abundantly pardon.

55.8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith YHVH.

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.

55.10 For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return not thither, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, and give seed for the sower, and bread for the eater.

55.11 So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth. it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

55.12 For you will go out with joy and peace. The mountains and hills will break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.

55.13 Instead of the brier the cypress will come up, and instead of the nettle the myrtle will come up. And it will be to YHVH for a name, for an everlasting sign that will not be cut down.

56.1 Thus saith YHVH, Keep judgment, and do righteousness. for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.

56.2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it. that keepeth the Sabbath from profaning it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.

56.3 And let not the stranger that hath joined himself unto YHVH say, YHVH hath separated me from his people. neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

56.4 For thus saith YHVH unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose that which pleaseth me, and hold fast my covenant.

56.5 And I will give them in my house and within my walls a name and a good name, both of sons and of daughters, an everlasting name will I give to him that shall not be cut off.

56.6 And the sons of the stranger, that join themselves unto YHVH, to serve him, and to love the name of YHVH, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and taketh hold of my covenant.

56.7 And I will bring them to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer. their sacrifices and their offerings shall be accepted upon mine altar. for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.

56.8 Thus saith ADNY YHVH; I will gather again the outcasts of Israel unto him that were gathered of them.

56.9 All the beasts of the field are full of them, all the beasts of the forest are devoured.

56.10 Watch, all of them are blind, all of them do not know, all of them are mute dogs, they cannot bark, the lynxes lie down, my love, to sleep.

56.11 And the dogs, the fierce ones, have not known satiety; and these wicked ones have not known understanding; they have all turned to their own way, each one to do his own thing.

56.12 I will take wine with him, and be drunk with strong drink. and it shall be a very great day.

57.1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart. and the merciful are gathered together, and they understand not. for from evil the righteous is gathered together.

57.2 Peace will come, they will rest on their beds, he will go before them.

57.3 And you have come near, behold, the children of Anan, a seed of adultery and whoredom.

57.4 In whom will you delight? In whom will you enlarge your mouth? In whom will you lengthen your tongue? Are you not children of iniquity, a seed of lies?

57.5 Those who comfort themselves in the gods under every green tree, those who slaughter their children by the streams, under the branches of the rocks.

57.6 My portion is your portion, they are your lot; you have poured out your drink offering, you have offered a burnt offering; these I will comfort.

57.7 On a high mountain, and a high place, where you died, even there you went up to sacrifice a sacrifice.

57.8 Behind the door and the mezuzah, put your remembrance, for I have come from Gath, and you have gone up, and you have enlarged your bed, and you have cut off from them the love of their bed, the hand of the front.

57.9 And thou shalt anoint the king with oil, and shalt increase thy vessels, and shalt send the poor far off, and shalt humble thyself even unto the grave.

57.10 You have come in many ways, you have not said, "Despair!" Your hand has found life, therefore you have not been sick.

57.11 And whom have you feared and feared, that you may be deceived? And you have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart. Am I not hidden and hidden? And you have not feared me?

57.12 I will declare your righteousness and your works, but it will not profit you.

57.13 At thy cry shall thy company be saved, and the wind shall carry them all away. the wind shall carry them away. but he that feareth me shall inherit the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain.

57.14 And he said, Turn aside, turn aside, remove the stumbling block from the way of my people.

57.15 For thus saith the high and lofty One, who dwelleth forever; and holy is His name, even on high; and holy is He that dwelleth with the contrite and humble in spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

57.16 For I will not contend forever, nor will I be angry forever; for a spirit from before me shall compass me about, and I have made souls.

57.17 For the iniquity of his doings I chastised him, and smote him secretly, and chastised him, and he walked in the way of his own heart.

57.18 I have seen his ways, and I have healed him, and comforted him, and I have comforted him and his mourners.

57.19 The Creator opens the lips of the people, saying, "Peace to those far off and near." Says YHVH, "And I will heal them."

57.20 And the wicked shall be cast out into the sea, because there is no peace. and they shall be cast out of their waters, mire and clay.

57.21 There is no peace, says my Alhym, to the wicked.

58.1 Cry out with your throat, do not be silent like a trumpet; lift up your voice and declare to my people their transgression, and to the house of Jacob their sins.

58.2 And they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that hath done righteousness, and forsook not the judgment of their Alhym. they ask of me the judgments of righteousness, and desire the nearness of Alhym.

58.3 Why have we fasted, and you did not see? We have afflicted our souls, and you did not know? In the day of your fasting you will find a desire, and all your nerves will be troubled.

58.4 For strife and for unleavened bread you shall fast, and to strike with the fist of wickedness you shall not fast today to make your voice heard on high.

58.5 Such shall be the fast that I shall choose, a day of affliction for a man, when he shall put on sackcloth and ashes on his head. This shall be called a fast, and a day acceptable to YHVH.

58.6 Is this not the fast that I have chosen? Open the gates of wickedness, let loose twisted tales, and let the broken go free, and cut off every twisted thing.

58.7 Is it not a reward for the hungry that you give your bread, and that you bring the poor and needy into your house? For you see their nakedness and cover them, and do not ignore your food.

58.8 Then shall thy length break forth as the morning, and thy stature shall spring forth speedily. and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of YHVH shall gather thee.

58.9 Then shalt thou call, and YHVH shall answer, and shall say, Behold, I am he. if thou wilt take away the crookedness from within thee, put forth thy finger, and speak wickedness.

58.10 And you will satisfy the hungry soul, and the hungry soul will be satisfied. And your light will shine in the darkness, and your darkness will be like noonday.

58.11 And YHVH shall bless thee continually, and satisfy thy soul with the fruit of thy strength. and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

58.12 And they built from you the swords of the world, the foundations of generation and generation, and called you a fence, a breach from the paths of the Sabbath.

58.13 If you turn away your feet from the sabbath, from doing your pleasures on my holy day, and call the sabbath a joyful sabbath, you will honor the holy one of YHVH, and honor him by doing your ways, by finding your pleasures and by speaking your words.

58.14 Then you will delight yourself in YHVH, and I will ride you on the mountains of the earth, and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father, for the mouth of YHVH has spoken.

59.1 Surely the hand of YHVH is not shortened from saving, neither is his ear heavy from hearing.

59.2 For if your iniquities have separated between you and your Alhym, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he may not hear,

59.3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity. your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue utters deceit.

59.4 No one calls for justice, and no one is judged by faith, confident in a vain and empty word. They conceive labor and give birth to iniquity.

59.5 The eggs of vipers have hatched, and the spider weaves a web. The one who hatches them will die, and the one who hatches them will hatch a viper.

59.6 Their webs will not be for clothing, nor will they be covered with their deeds. Their deeds are acts of violence and the work of violence is in their hands.

59.7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood. their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity, and destruction is in their hearts.

59.8 The way of peace they have not known, and there is no judgment in their midst; their paths are hard for them, every way in which they have not known peace.

59.9 Therefore judgment is far from him, and righteousness shall not overtake him. we hope for light, but behold darkness; we walk in gloom.

59.10 We grope like a wall, and as if there were no eyes, we grope like our fellows at noon, like a breath in ashes, like the dead.

59.11 We all growl like bears, and like doves we groan; we wait for judgment, and there is no salvation far from him.

59.12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our iniquities bear witness against us. for our transgressions are with us, and our iniquities we know.

59.13 We have transgressed and denied YHVH, and have turned away from following our Alhym, speaking oppression and deceit, and have conceived lies from the heart.

59.14 And judgment shall be turned back, and righteousness shall stand afar off. for truth shall fail in the street, and it shall not be able to come near.

59.15 And truth is absent, and wickedness is rampant. and YHVH feareth, and it is evil in his sight, that there is no judgment.

59.16 And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was none to hurt him. and his seed shall be saved, and his righteousness shall be his strength.

59.17 And he shall put on righteousness as a helmet, and a helmet of salvation upon his head. and he shall put on garments of vengeance, and shall cover himself with jealousy as with a mantle.

59.18 As a camel, so a camel will repay wrath to his enemies, reward to his enemies, reward to his threats.

59.19 And they shall fear the name of YHVH from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. for he shall come like a rushing river, the spirit of YHVH shall sweep through it.

59.20 And a Redeemer shall come to Zion, and to the captivity of transgression in Jacob, saith YHVH.

59.21 And this is my covenant with them, saith YHVH. 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 YHVH, from henceforth and for evermore.

60.1 Arise, my light, for your light has come, and the glory of YHVH has risen upon you.

60.2 For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people. but YHVH shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

60.3 And nations shall walk along, and kings to the rising of the sun.

60.4 Lift up your eyes around you and see, all of them are gathered together. Your sons will come to you from afar, and your daughters will be gathered together.

60.5 Then you will see and be afraid, and your heart will be enlarged, for the multitude of the sea will rise against you, the strength of the nations will come against you.

60.6 The multitude of camels shall cover the fields of Midian, and all they that come shall bring gold and frankincense. they shall shew forth the praise of YHVH.

60.7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered unto thee, the rams of the prophets shall serve thee. they shall offer willingly upon mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.

60.8 Who are these, like the doves to their nests?

60.9 For in me shall the isles hope, and the ships of Tarshish at the head, to bring thy sons from afar, their silver and their gold with them, to the name of YHVH thy Alhym, and to the Holy One of Israel, for thy glory.

60.10 And the sons of the sons of the strangers of thy wrath, and their kings, shall serve thee. for in thine anger I have smitten thee, and in thy mercy I have desired thy mercy.

60.11 And your gates shall be open continually day and night; they shall not be shut, to bring to you the army of the nations, and their kings shall be brought.

60.12 For the nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish, and the nations shall be destroyed by the sword.

60.13 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary, and I will glorify the place of my feet.

60.14 And the children of thy afflictions shall come unto thee, and all thy enemies shall bow down at thy feet, and they shall call thee the city of YHVH, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

60.15 Instead of you being forsaken and hated, and no one passing by, I will make you an everlasting glory, from generation to generation.

60.16 And thou shalt suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings. and thou shalt know that I YHVH am thy Saviour, and thy Redeemer, the mighty one of Jacob.

60.17 Instead of the bronze I will bring gold, and instead of the iron I will bring silver, and instead of the wood brass, and instead of the stones iron. and I will appoint peace for your work, and I will appoint righteousness for your work.

60.18 No more shall a cry of distress be heard in your land, nor a cry of destruction within your borders; but the cry of salvation shall be upon your walls, and upon your gates praise.

60.19 The sun shall no more be thy light by day, neither shall the moon shine for thee for brightness. but YHVH shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy Alhym thy glory.

60.20 Your moon will no longer be withered, nor will your moon withdraw itself; for YHVH will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning will be ended.

60.21 And all your people shall be righteous for ever. they shall inherit the land, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, to glory in it.

60.22 A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a mighty nation. I YHVH will make him great in his time.

61.1 The Spirit of ADNY YHVH is upon me, because YHVH 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.

61.2 To proclaim the year of YHVH's favor, and the day of vengeance of our Alhym, to comfort all who mourn.

61.3 To give unto the mourners of Zion beauty for ashes, to give them oil of joy for mourning, and a covering of praise for the dark wind. and to call them the rams of righteousness, the planting of YHVH, to glory.

61.4 And they shall build the desolate cities of the world, and the firstborn shall arise, and renew the desolate cities of the world, from generation to generation.

61.5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and foreigners shall be your farmers and your vinedressers.

61.6 And you, the priests of YHVH, shall be called the ministers of our Alhym. he shall say unto you, Ye shall eat the strength of the nations, and in their glory shall ye glory.

61.7 Instead of your shame and disgrace, their portion will be joyful; therefore they will inherit their land in the second place; everlasting joy will be theirs.

61.8 For I, YHVH, love justice, and hate robbery for burnt offerings. and I will give them their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

61.9 Their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples. all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed of the blessing of YHVH.

61.10 I will trust in YHVH; my soul shall rejoice in my Alhym. for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation; he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness. he shall cover me as a bridegroom doth, and as a bride adorneth herself with her fullness.

61.11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and a garden causeth her branches to shoot forth, so will ADNY YHVH cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.

62.1 For Zion's sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not keep quiet, until righteousness goes forth like a sun, and her salvation like a burning lamp.

62.2 And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory. and thou shalt be called a new name, which the mouth of YHVH shall name.

62.3 And you shall be a crown of glory in the hand of YHVH, and a royal diadem in the hand of your Alhym.

62.4 You will no longer be called Forsaken, nor will your land be called Desolate. For you will be called My delight in you, and your land will be fruitful. For YHVH delights in you, and your land will be fruitful.

62.5 For if a young man marries a virgin, your sons will marry you, and a bridegroom will marry a bride, your Alhym will marry you.

62.6 I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, day and night continually, that they which remember YHVH may not be ashamed of my blood.

62.7 And give him no more blood, until he establish, and until he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

62.8 YHVH has sworn in our days, and by his mighty arm, that I will give your grain as food for your enemies, and that foreigners will drink your wine which you have drunk,

62.9 For those who gather it shall eat it, and praise YHVH. and those who gather it shall dwell in the courts of my sanctuary.

62.10 They passed through the gates, they turned to the way of the people, they went slowly, they paved the way, they stoned it with stones, they raised a sign against the nations.

62.11 Behold, YHVH hath made a proclamation unto the end of the earth, saying unto the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy servant cometh. behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.

62.12 And they shall call them the holy people, the redeemed of YHVH. and thou shalt be called a city not forsaken.

63.1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, in garments of Bazar? This is the noble in his apparel, he hath gone forth in the multitude of his strength. I speak in righteousness, and am mighty to save.

63.2 Why should a man clothe you and your garments after the manner of Gath?

63.3 I have walked alone, and among the people there is no man with me. and I have trodden them in my nose, and trampled them in my anger. and I have covered them with my garments, and have covered all my garments.

63.4 For the day of vengeance is in my heart, and the year of my redemption is come.

63.5 And I looked, and there was no help. and I was astonished, and there was none to trust. and my seed saved me, and my flesh supported me.

63.6 And I will devour the nations in my anger, and make them drunk in my wrath, and I will bring them down to the earth.

63.7 The mercies of YHVH I will mention the praise of YHVH, according to all that YHVH hath bestowed upon us, and the great goodness unto the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed upon them according to his mercy, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.

63.8 And he said, "But these are my people, children who will not lie, and they will have a Savior."

63.9 In all their affliction he was not afflicted, but the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and compassion he redeemed them, and he took them, and he carried them all the days of the world.

63.10 But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit. therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and fought against them.

63.11 And Moses remembered the days of old, and his people, where was the shepherd of his flock? Where was YHVH in his midst, his holy spirit?

63.12 He leads Moses by the right hand, with his glorious arm, and causes waters to flow from before them, to make for him an everlasting name.

63.13 They will face you in the depths, like a horse in the wilderness, they will not stumble.

63.14 Like a beast in the valley, the Spirit of YHVH will come down, you will rest him. So you have dealt with your people, to make a glorious name for yourself.

63.15 Look down from heaven and see, your holiness and your glory. Where is your zeal and your strength? The multitude of your bowels and your mercies have restrained themselves from me.

63.16 For you are our father, though Abraham did not know us, and Israel did not acknowledge us. You are YHVH our father, you have redeemed us from the beginning of time by your name.

63.17 Why do you turn away from your ways, O YHVH? Why do you harden our hearts from your fear? For the sake of your servants, the tribes of your inheritance,

63.18 For your holy people have inherited misfortune; our enemies have destroyed your sanctuary.

63.19 If you had never ruled over them, your name would not have been invoked over them. If you had not torn the heavens and come down at their presence, the mountains would have flowed away.

64.1 As a fire that quenches water, so shall the fire be, to declare thy name to them that need it. the nations shall be angry because of thee.

64.2 You have done terrible things, and I cannot hope for them. The mountains have melted at your presence.

64.3 And they have not heard, nor perceived, nor eye seen, a Alhym besides thee, that he should wait for him.

64.4 You have struck the six, and done justice in your ways, they will remember you; indeed, you have been smitten, and we have sinned in them forever and are saved.

64.5 And we shall all be as unclean, and all our righteousnesses as filthy rags. and we shall all be as a leaf, and our affliction as the wind that carryeth us away.

64.6 And none that calleth upon thy name shall rise up to take hold of thee. for thou hast hid thy face from him, and he is consumed by the hand of his iniquity.

64.7 And now, O Lord our Father, we are the clay, and you are our potter; and we are all the work of your hand.

64.8 Be not angry, O YHVH, for ever. neither remember iniquity for ever. behold, we are all with thee.

64.9 Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

64.10 Our sanctuary and our glory, which our fathers praised, is burned with fire, and all our pleasant things are laid waste.

64.11 For these things wilt thou not be restrained, O YHVH? thou wilt be grieved, and afflict us exceedingly.

65.1 I sought for them, and they were found without my asking. I said, Lo, here I am, lo, here I am to a nation that hath not called upon my name.

65.2 I have spread out my hands all day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own thoughts.

65.3 The people who provoke me to anger always offer shameful sacrifices and burn incense on idols.

65.4 Those who live in tombs and in dungeons will be filled with food, eating pork and breaking their utensils.

65.5 Those who say, "Come near to me," do not come near me, for I have sanctified you. These are smoke in my nostrils, a fire that burns all day long.

65.6 Behold, it is written before me, I will not repent, until I have paid, and paid for my sins.

65.7 Your time and the time of your fathers together, says YHVH, you who burn incense on the mountains and on the hills, you have defied me, and I have made your work a priority over your own.

65.8 Thus saith YHVH, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and I say, Destroy it not; for there is a blessing in it. so will I do for my servant's sake, that I destroy not all.

65.9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of the mountains. and my chosen shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.

65.10 And Sharon shall be a fold of sheep, and the valley of Achor a place for cattle to lie down for my people that have sought me.

65.11 But you who forsake YHVH, who forget my holy mountain, who set up a feast for the gods, and fill your mouth with wine from the bottle.

65.12 And I will destine you for the sword, and ye shall all fall for the slaughter. because I called, and ye answered not; I spake, and ye heard not; but ye did evil in mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

65.13 Therefore thus saith ADNY YHVH; Behold, my servants shall eat, and ye shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, and ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, and ye shall be ashamed.

65.14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall sing for brokenness of spirit.

65.15 And you will take your name for an oath to my chosen ones, and ADNY YHVH will kill you, and his servants will be called by another name.

65.16 For he that blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the Alhym of truth. and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the Alhym of truth. for the former troubles are forgotten, and are hid from my eyes.

65.17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth. and the former shall not be remembered, neither shall they come up into mind.

65.18 But if they shall be ashamed, and shall know my name, even that I am the creator. for, behold, I will create Jerusalem a stranger, and her people a stranger.

65.19 And I will dwell in Jerusalem, and I will dwell among my people. and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying shall no more be heard in her.

65.20 There shall be no more there from thence an old man that shall not fill his days. for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner a hundred years old shall curse.

65.21 And they built houses, and dwelt therein, and planted vineyards, and ate oxen.

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 the work of their hands shall consume away my chosen.

65.23 They shall not toil in vain, nor bring forth for trouble. for they are the seed of the blessed of YHVH, and their seed with them.

65.24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

65.25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and the serpent shall eat dust for his food. they shall not feed nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith YHVH.

66.1 Thus saith YHVH, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. what is this house that ye build unto me? and what is the place of my rest?

66.2 And all these things have my hand made, and all these things have come to pass, saith YHVH. and to this will I look, even to him that is poor and contrite in spirit, and trembleth at my words.

66.3 The ox is slaughtered, the man is slaughtered, the lamb is beheaded, the dog is offered, the blood of a pig is remembered, the son is blessed, even these have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.

66.4 I also will choose their wickedness, and I will bring upon them their own destruction. because I called, and they answered not. I spake, and they hearkened, but did evil in my sight, and chose that in which I delighted not.

66.5 Hear the word of YHVH, ye that fear him. your brethren that hate you, that cast you out, shall say, That my name may be glorified in YHVH, and that it may be seen in your joy, and they shall be dried up.

66.6 The voice of a city is a voice from the temple, the voice of YHVH repaying his enemies.

66.7 Before a girl conceives, before labor comes upon her and she gives birth to a male child,

66.8 Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such a thing? Who can bring forth a land in one day? Or a nation be brought forth at once? For Zion also travaileth in childbirth, and bringeth forth her children.

66.9 Shall I bring forth, and bring not forth? saith YHVH. Shall I bring forth, and bring not forth? saith thy Alhym.

66.10 Rejoice over Jerusalem, and let all her lovers rejoice over her; for she is the Christ, and all who mourn over her will rejoice over her.

66.11 That ye may suck and be satisfied with the breast of her comforts, that ye may be satisfied and be delighted with the sweetness of her glory.

66.12 For thus saith YHVH, Behold, I will extend unto her a river of peace, and a stream that causeth the glory of the nations to flow. and ye shall suck them upon the side, and on the knees shall ye rejoice.

66.13 As a man whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you. and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

66.14 And ye shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like grass. and the hand of YHVH shall be known toward his servants, and his wrath toward his enemies.

66.15 For, behold, YHVH will come with fire, and with his chariots silver, to render his wrath in fierceness, and his rebuke with flames of fire.

66.16 For by fire YHVH shall be judged, and all flesh shall be consumed by the sword. and the slain of YHVH shall be multiplied.

66.17 Those who are sanctified and purified will go to the sanctuary one by one, among those who eat the flesh of swine, the abomination, and the mouse together, says YHVH.

66.18 And I, their works and their thoughts, am come to gather all nations and tongues, and they shall come and see my glory.

66.19 And I set a sign among them, and sent them to the nations, to Tarshish, to Pol, and to Lydda, to the bowers of the earth, and to Greece, to the isles afar off, which have not heard my voice, nor seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the nations.

66.20 And bring all your brethren out of all the nations an offering unto YHVH, on horses, and in chariots, and in mules, and in chariots, unto my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith YHVH, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of YHVH.

66.21 And of them will I also take for priests and Levites, saith YHVH.

66.22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith YHVH, so shall your seed and your name remain.

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 YHVH.

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 sin be quenched. and they shall be a terror to all flesh.
