The visionH2377 of IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531, which he sawH2372 concerning JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 in the daysH3117 of UzziahH5818, JothamH3147, AhazH271, and HezekiahH3169, kingsH4428 of JudahH3063.
HearH8085, O heavensH8064, and give earH238, O earthH776: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696, I have nourishedH1431 and brought upH7311 childrenH1121, and they have rebelledH6586 against me.
The oxH7794 knowethH3045 his ownerH7069, and the assH2543 his master'sH1167 cribH18: but IsraelH3478 doth not knowH3045, my peopleH5971 doth not considerH995.
AhH1945 sinfulH2398 nationH1471, a peopleH5971 ladenH3515 with iniquityH5771, a seedH2233 of evildoersH7489, childrenH1121 that are corruptersH7843: they have forsakenH5800+H853 the LORDH3068, they have provokedH5006+H853 the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 unto angerH5006, they are gone awayH2114 backwardH268. {laden: Heb. of heaviness} {gone…: Heb. alienated, or, separated}
Why should ye be strickenH5221 any more? ye will revoltH5627 more and moreH3254: the whole headH7218 is sickH2483, and the whole heartH3824 faintH1742. {revolt…: Heb. increase revolt}
From the soleH3709 of the footH7272 even unto the headH7218 there is no soundnessH4974 in it; but woundsH6482, and bruisesH2250, and putrifyingH2961 soresH4347: they have not been closedH2115, neither bound upH2280, neither mollifiedH7401 with ointmentH8081. {ointment: or, oil}
Your countryH776 is desolateH8077, your citiesH5892 are burnedH8313 with fireH784: your landH127, strangersH2114 devourH398 it in your presence, and it is desolateH8077, as overthrownH4114 by strangersH2114. {overthrown…: Heb. the overthrow of}
And the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726 is leftH3498 as a cottageH5521 in a vineyardH3754, as a lodgeH4412 in a garden of cucumbersH4750, as a besiegedH5341 cityH5892.
ExceptH3884 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 had leftH3498 unto us a very smallH4592 remnantH8300, we should have beenH1961 as SodomH5467, and we should have been likeH1819 unto GomorrahH6017.
HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye rulersH7101 of SodomH5467; give earH238 unto the lawH8451 of our GodH430, ye peopleH5971 of GomorrahH6017.
To whatH4100 purpose is the multitudeH7230 of your sacrificesH2077 unto me? saithH559 the LORDH3068: I am fullH7646 of the burnt offeringsH5930 of ramsH352, and the fatH2459 of fed beastsH4806; and I delightH2654 not in the bloodH1818 of bullocksH6499, or of lambsH3532, or of he goatsH6260. {he goats: Heb. great he goats}
When ye comeH935 to appearH7200 beforeH6440 me, who hath requiredH1245 this at your handH3027, to treadH7429 my courtsH2691? {to appear: Heb. to be seen}
BringH935 no moreH3254 vainH7723 oblationsH4503; incenseH7004 is an abominationH8441 unto me; the new moonsH2320 and sabbathsH7676, the callingH7121 of assembliesH4744, I cannot away withH3201; it is iniquityH205, even the solemn meetingH6116. {iniquity: or, grief}
Your new moonsH2320 and your appointed feastsH4150 my soulH5315 hatethH8130: they are a troubleH2960 unto me; I am wearyH3811 to bearH5375 them.
And when ye spread forthH6566 your handsH3709, I will hideH5956 mine eyesH5869 from you: yea, when ye make manyH7235 prayersH8605, I will not hearH8085: your handsH3027 are fullH4390 of bloodH1818. {make…: Heb. multiply prayer} {blood: Heb. bloods}
WashH7364 you, make you cleanH2135; put awayH5493 the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611 from beforeH5048 mine eyesH5869; ceaseH2308 to do evilH7489;
LearnH3925 to do wellH3190; seekH1875 judgmentH4941, relieveH833 the oppressedH2541, judgeH8199 the fatherlessH3490, pleadH7378 for the widowH490. {relieve: or, righten}
Come nowH3212, and let us reason togetherH3198, saithH559 the LORDH3068: though your sinsH2399 be as scarletH8144, they shall be as whiteH3835 as snowH7950; though they be redH119 like crimsonH8438, they shall be as woolH6785.
If ye be willingH14 and obedientH8085, ye shall eatH398 the goodH2898 of the landH776:
But if ye refuseH3985 and rebelH4784, ye shall be devouredH398 with the swordH2719: for the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
How is the faithfulH539 cityH7151 become an harlotH2181! it was fullH4392 of judgmentH4941; righteousnessH6664 lodgedH3885 in it; but now murderersH7523.
Thy silverH3701 is become drossH5509, thy wineH5435 mixedH4107 with waterH4325:
Thy princesH8269 are rebelliousH5637, and companionsH2270 of thievesH1590: every one lovethH157 giftsH7810, and followethH7291 after rewardsH8021: they judgeH8199 not the fatherlessH3490, neither doth the causeH7379 of the widowH490 comeH935 unto them.
Therefore saithH5002 the LordH113, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the mighty OneH46 of IsraelH3478, AhH1945, I will easeH5162 me of mine adversariesH6862, and avengeH5358 me of mine enemiesH341:
And I will turnH7725 my handH3027 upon thee, and purelyH1253 purge awayH6884 thy drossH5509, and take awayH5493 all thy tinH913: {purely: Heb. according to pureness}
And I will restoreH7725 thy judgesH8199 as at the firstH7223, and thy counsellorsH3289 as at the beginningH8462: afterwardH310 thou shalt be calledH7121, The cityH5892 of righteousnessH6664, the faithfulH539 cityH7151.
ZionH6726 shall be redeemedH6299 with judgmentH4941, and her convertsH7725 with righteousnessH6666. {her…: or, they that return of her}
And the destructionH7667 of the transgressorsH6586 and of the sinnersH2400 shall be togetherH3162, and they that forsakeH5800 the LORDH3068 shall be consumedH3615. {destruction: Heb. breaking}
For they shall be ashamedH954 of the oaksH352 which ye have desiredH2530, and ye shall be confoundedH2659 for the gardensH1593 that ye have chosenH977.
For ye shall be as an oakH424 whose leafH5929 fadethH5034, and as a gardenH1593 that hath no waterH4325.
And the strongH2634 shall be as towH5296, and the makerH6467 of it as a sparkH5213, and they shall bothH8147 burnH1197 togetherH3162, and none shall quenchH3518 them. {maker…: or, and his work}
