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}

The LORDH3068 will enterH935 into judgmentH4941 with the ancientsH2205 of his peopleH5971, and the princesH8269 thereof: for ye have eaten upH1197 the vineyardH3754; the spoilH1500 of the poorH6041 is in your housesH1004. {eaten: or, burnt}
Whoso is partnerH2505 with a thiefH1590 hatethH8130 his own soulH5315: he hearethH8085 cursingH423, and bewrayethH5046 it not.
He that walkethH1980 righteouslyH6666, and speakethH1696 uprightlyH4339; he that despisethH3988 the gainH1215 of oppressionsH4642, that shakethH5287 his handsH3709 from holdingH8551 of bribesH7810, that stoppethH331 his earsH241 from hearingH8085 of bloodH1818, and shuttethH6105 his eyesH5869 from seeingH7200 evilH7451; {righteously: Heb. in righteousnesses} {uprightly: Heb. uprightnesses} {oppressions: or, deceits} {blood: Heb. bloods}
WoeH1945 unto them that decreeH2710 unrighteousH205 decreesH2711, and that writeH3789 grievousnessH5999 which they have prescribedH3789; {that write…: or, to the writers that write grievousness}
Now afterH310 the deathH4194 of JehoiadaH3077 cameH935 the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, and made obeisanceH7812 to the kingH4428. Then the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085 unto them.
And they leftH5800 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, and servedH5647 grovesH842 and idolsH6091: and wrathH7110 came upon JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 for this their trespassH819.
Yet he sentH7971 prophetsH5030 to them, to bring them againH7725 unto the LORDH3068; and they testifiedH5749 against them: but they would not give earH238.
And the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 cameH3847 upon ZechariahH2148 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548, which stoodH5975 above the peopleH5971, and saidH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 GodH430, Why transgressH5674 ye the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068, that ye cannot prosperH6743? because ye have forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068, he hath also forsakenH5800 you. {came…: Heb. clothed}
And they conspiredH7194 against him, and stonedH7275 him with stonesH68 at the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428 in the courtH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
AndG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, It is writtenG1125, MyG3450 houseG3624 shall be calledG2564 the houseG3624 of prayerG4335; butG1161 yeG5210 have madeG4160 itG846 a denG4693 of thievesG3027.
And thou shalt takeH3947 no giftH7810: for the giftH7810 blindethH5786 the wiseH6493, and pervertethH5557 the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662. {the wise: Heb. the seeing}
To turn asideH5186 the needyH1800 from judgmentH1779, and to take awayH1497 the rightH4941 from the poorH6041 of my peopleH5971, that widowsH490 may be their preyH7998, and that they may robH962 the fatherlessH3490!
Moreover all the chiefH8269 of the priestsH3548, and the peopleH5971, transgressedH4603 veryH4604 muchH7235 after all the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471; and pollutedH2930 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 which he had hallowedH6942 in JerusalemH3389.
AndG2532 he taughtG1321, sayingG3004 unto themG846, Is itG1125 notG3756 writtenG1125+G3754, MyG3450 houseG3624 shall be calledG2564 of allG3956 nationsG1484 the houseG3624 of prayerG4335? butG1161 yeG5210 have madeG4160 itG846 a denG4693 of thievesG3027. {of all…: or, an house of prayer for all nations}
Thou shalt not wrestH5186 judgmentH4941; thou shalt not respectH5234 personsH6440, neither takeH3947 a giftH7810: for a giftH7810 doth blindH5786 the eyesH5869 of the wiseH2450, and pervertH5557 the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662. {words: or, matters}
They are waxen fatH8080, they shineH6245: yea, they overpassH5674 the deedsH1697 of the wickedH7451: they judgeH1777 not the causeH1779, the cause of the fatherlessH3490, yet they prosperH6743; and the rightH4941 of the needyH34 do they not judgeH8199.
I will getH3212 me unto the great menH1419, and will speakH1696 unto them; for they have knownH3045 the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, and the judgmentH4941 of their GodH430: but these have altogetherH3162 brokenH7665 the yokeH5923, and burstH5423 the bondsH4147.
SayingG3004 unto themG846, It is writtenG1125, MyG3450 houseG3624 isG2076 the houseG3624 of prayerG4335: butG1161 yeG5210 have madeG4160 itG846 a denG4693 of thievesG3027.
A wickedH7563 man takethH3947 a giftH7810 out of the bosomH2436 to pervertH5186 the waysH734 of judgmentH4941.
Shall I not visitH6485 for these things? saithH5002 the LORDH3068: shall not my soulH5315 be avengedH5358 on such a nationH1471 as this?
Behold, the princesH5387 of IsraelH3478, every oneH376 were in thee to their powerH2220 to shedH8210 bloodH1818. {power: Heb. arm}
In thee have they set lightH7043 by fatherH1 and motherH517: in the midstH8432 of thee have they dealtH6213 by oppressionH6233 with the strangerH1616: in thee have they vexedH3238 the fatherlessH3490 and the widowH490. {oppression: or, deceit}
Thou hast despisedH959 mine holy thingsH6944, and hast profanedH2490 my sabbathsH7676.
In thee are menH582 that carry talesH7400 to shedH8210 bloodH1818: and in thee they eatH398 upon the mountainsH2022: in the midstH8432 of thee they commitH6213 lewdnessH2154. {that…: Heb. of slanders}
In thee have they discoveredH1540 their fathers'H1 nakednessH6172: in thee have they humbledH6031 her that was set apartH5079 for pollutionH2931.
And oneH376 hath committedH6213 abominationH8441 with his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802; and anotherH376 hath lewdlyH2154 defiledH2930 his daughter in lawH3618; and anotherH376 in thee hath humbledH6031 his sisterH269, his father'sH1 daughterH1323. {one: or, every one} {another: or, every one} {lewdly: or, by lewdness}
In thee have they takenH3947 giftsH7810 to shedH8210 bloodH1818; thou hast takenH3947 usuryH5392 and increaseH8636, and thou hast greedily gainedH1214 of thy neighboursH7453 by extortionH6233, and hast forgottenH7911 me, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
But thine eyesH5869 and thine heartH3820 are not but for thy covetousnessH1215, and for to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, and for oppressionH6233, and for violenceH4835, to doH6213 it. {violence: or, incursion}
And oppressH6231 not the widowH490, nor the fatherlessH3490, the strangerH1616, nor the poorH6041; and let none of you imagineH2803 evilH7451 againstH376 his brotherH251 in your heartH3824.
We have sinnedH2398, and have committed iniquityH5753, and have done wickedlyH7561, and have rebelledH4775, even by departingH5493 from thy preceptsH4687 and from thy judgmentsH4941:
In thee have they takenH3947 giftsH7810 to shedH8210 bloodH1818; thou hast takenH3947 usuryH5392 and increaseH8636, and thou hast greedily gainedH1214 of thy neighboursH7453 by extortionH6233, and hast forgottenH7911 me, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
And I will come nearH7126 to you to judgmentH4941; and I will be a swiftH4116 witnessH5707 against the sorcerersH3784, and against the adulterersH5003, and against falseH8267 swearersH7650, and against those that oppressH6231 the hirelingH7916 in his wagesH7939, the widowH490, and the fatherlessH3490, and that turn asideH5186 the strangerH1616 from his right, and fearH3372 not me, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {oppress: or, defraud}
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
Their drinkH5435 is sourH5493: they have committed whoredomH2181 continuallyH2181: her rulersH4043 with shameH7036 do loveH157, GiveH3051 ye. {sour: Heb. gone} {rulers: Heb. shields}
SayingG3004, There wasG2258 inG1722 aG5100 cityG4172 aG5100 judgeG2923, which fearedG5399 notG3361 GodG2316, neitherG2532+G3361 regardedG1788 manG444: {in a city: Gr. in a certain city}
AndG1161 there wasG2258 a widowG5503 inG1722 thatG1565 cityG4172; andG2532 she cameG2064 untoG4314 himG846, sayingG3004, AvengeG1556 meG3165 ofG575 mineG3450 adversaryG476.
AndG2532 he wouldG2309 notG3756 forG1909 a whileG5550: butG1161 afterwardG5023+G3326 he saidG2036 withinG1722 himselfG1438, ThoughG1499 I fearG5399 notG3756 GodG2316, norG2532+G3756 regardG1788 manG444;
YetG1065 becauseG1223 thisG5026 widowG5503 troublethG3930+G2873 meG3427, I will avengeG1556 herG846, lestG3363 byG1519 her continualG5056 comingG2064 she wearyG5299 meG3165.
They make the kingH4428 gladH8055 with their wickednessH7451, and the princesH8269 with their liesH3585.
They are all adulterersH5003, as an ovenH8574 heatedH1197 by the bakerH644, who ceasethH7673 from raisingH5782 after he hath kneadedH3888 the doughH1217, until it be leavenedH2556. {who…: or, the raiser will cease} {raising: or, waking}
In the dayH3117 of our kingH4428 the princesH8269 have made him sickH2470 with bottlesH2534 of wineH3196; he stretched outH4900 his handH3027 with scornersH3945. {bottles…: or, heat through wine}
That they may do evilH7451 with both handsH3709 earnestlyH3190, the princeH8269 askethH7592, and the judgeH8199 asketh for a rewardH7966; and the greatH1419 man, he utterethH1696 his mischievousH1942 desireH5315: so they wrap it upH5686. {his…: Heb. the mischief of his soul}
All their wickednessH7451 is in GilgalH1537: for there I hatedH8130 them: for the wickednessH7455 of their doingsH4611 I will drive them outH1644 of mine houseH1004, I will loveH160 them no moreH3254: all their princesH8269 are revoltersH5637.
And I saidH559, HearH8085, I pray you, O headsH7218 of JacobH3290, and ye princesH7101 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; Is it not for you to knowH3045 judgmentH4941?
Who hateH8130 the goodH2896, and loveH157 the evilH7451; who pluck offH1497 their skinH5785 from off them, and their fleshH7607 from off their bonesH6106;
Who also eatH398 the fleshH7607 of my peopleH5971, and flayH6584 their skinH5785 from off them; and they breakH6476 their bonesH6106, and chop them in piecesH6566, as for the potH5518, and as fleshH1320 withinH8432 the caldronH7037.
The headsH7218 thereof judgeH8199 for rewardH7810, and the priestsH3548 thereof teachH3384 for hireH4242, and the prophetsH5030 thereof divineH7080 for moneyH3701: yet will they leanH8172 upon the LORDH3068, and sayH559, Is not the LORDH3068 amongH7130 us? none evilH7451 can comeH935 upon us. {and say: Heb. saying}
AndG1161 it came to passG1096 onG1909 the morrowG839, that theirG846 rulersG758, andG2532 eldersG4245, andG2532 scribesG1122,
AndG2532 AnnasG452 the high priestG749, andG2532 CaiaphasG2533, andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 AlexanderG223, andG2532 as many asG3745 wereG2258 ofG1537 the kindredG1085 of the high priestG748, were gathered togetherG4863 atG1519 JerusalemG2419.
AndG2532 when they had setG2476 themG846 inG1722 the midstG3319, they askedG4441, ByG1722 whatG4169 powerG1411, orG2228 byG1722 whatG4169 nameG3686, haveG4160 yeG5210 doneG4160 thisG5124?
ThenG5119 PeterG4074, filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151, saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Ye rulersG758 of the peopleG2992, andG2532 eldersG4245 of IsraelG2474,
IfG1487 weG2249 this dayG4594 be examinedG350 ofG1909 the good deed doneG2108 to the impotentG772 manG444, byG1722 what meansG5101 heG3778 is made wholeG4982;
Be itG2077 knownG1110 unto youG5213 allG3956, andG2532 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474, thatG3754 byG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 of NazarethG3480, whomG3739 yeG5210 crucifiedG4717, whomG3739 GodG2316 raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, even byG1722 himG5129 dothG3936 this manG3778 stand hereG3936 beforeG1799 youG5216 wholeG5199.
ThisG3778 isG2076 the stoneG3037 whichG3588 was set at noughtG1848 ofG5259 youG5216 buildersG3618, whichG3588 is becomeG1096 the headG2776 ofG1519 the cornerG1137.
