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}
Querverweise zu Jesaja 1,28 Jes 1,28
Is not destructionH343 to the wickedH5767? and a strangeH5235 punishment to the workersH6466 of iniquityH205?
Therefore this iniquityH5771 shall be to you as a breachH6556 ready to fallH5307, swelling outH1158 in a highH7682 wallH2346, whose breakingH7667 comethH935 suddenlyH6597 at an instantH6621.
For the LORDH3068 knowethH3045 the wayH1870 of the righteousH6662: but the wayH1870 of the ungodlyH7563 shall perishH6.
Behold, all ye that kindleH6919 a fireH784, that compass yourselves aboutH247 with sparksH2131: walkH3212 in the lightH217 of your fireH784, and in the sparksH2131 that ye have kindledH1197. This shall ye have of mine handH3027; ye shall lie downH7901 in sorrowH4620.
Thou shalt destroyH6 them that speakH1696 leasingH3577: the LORDH3068 will abhorH8581 the bloodyH1818 and deceitfulH4820 manH376. {bloody…: Heb. man of bloods and deceit}
But ye are they that forsakeH5800 the LORDH3068, that forgetH7913 my holyH6944 mountainH2022, that prepareH6186 a tableH7979 for that troopH1409+H1408, and that furnishH4390 the drink offeringH4469 unto that numberH4507. {troop: or, Gad} {number: or, Meni, a pagan god}
But the transgressorsH6586 shall be destroyedH8045 togetherH3162: the endH319 of the wickedH7563 shall be cut offH3772.
For, lo, they that are farH7369 from thee shall perishH6: thou hast destroyedH6789 all them that go a whoringH2181 from thee.
But if ye shall at allH7725 turnH7725 from followingH310 me, ye or your childrenH1121, and will not keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708 which I have setH5414 beforeH6440 you, but goH1980 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worshipH7812 them:
Then will I cut offH3772 IsraelH3478 outH6440 of the landH127 which I have givenH5414 them; and this houseH1004, which I have hallowedH6942 for my nameH8034, will I cast outH7971 of my sightH6440; and IsraelH3478 shall be a proverbH4912 and a bywordH8148 among all peopleH5971:
And at this houseH1004, which is highH5945, every one that passethH5674 by it shall be astonishedH8074, and shall hissH8319; and they shall sayH559, Why hath the LORDH3068 doneH6213 thus unto this landH776, and to this houseH1004?
And they shall answerH559, Because they forsookH5800 the LORDH3068 their GodH430, who brought forthH3318 their fathersH1 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and have taken holdH2388 upon otherH312 godsH430, and have worshippedH7812 them, and servedH5647 them: therefore hath the LORDH3068 broughtH935 upon them all this evilH7451.
For, lo, thine enemiesH341, O LORDH3068, for, lo, thine enemiesH341 shall perishH6; all the workersH6466 of iniquityH205 shall be scatteredH6504.
And thou, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, knowH3045 thou the GodH430 of thy fatherH1, and serveH5647 him with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 and with a willingH2655 mindH5315: for the LORDH3068 searchethH1875 all heartsH3824, and understandethH995 all the imaginationsH3336 of the thoughtsH4284: if thou seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of thee; but if thou forsakeH5800 him, he will cast thee offH2186 for everH5703.
Let the sinnersH2400 be consumedH8552 out of the earthH776, and let the wickedH7563 be no more. BlessH1288 thou the LORDH3068, O my soulH5315. PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050.
I will also stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon JudahH3063, and upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; and I will cut offH3772 the remnantH7605 of BaalH1168 from this placeH4725, and the nameH8034 of the ChemarimsH3649 with the priestsH3548;
And them that worshipH7812 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 upon the housetopsH1406; and them that worshipH7812 and that swearH7650 by the LORDH3068, and that swearH7650 by MalchamH4428; {by the…: or, to the LORD}
And them that are turned backH5472 fromH310 the LORDH3068; and those that have not soughtH1245 the LORDH3068, nor enquiredH1875 for him.
As for such as turn asideH5186 unto their crooked waysH6128, the LORDH3068 shall lead them forthH3212 with the workersH6466 of iniquityH205: but peaceH7965 shall be upon IsraelH3478.
HeH376, that being often reprovedH8433 hardenethH7185 his neckH6203, shall suddenlyH6621 be destroyedH7665, and that without remedyH4832. {He…: Heb. A man of reproofs}
But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 servantG1401 sayG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG3450 lordG2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064; andG2532 shall beginG756 to beatG5180 the menservantsG3816 andG2532 maidensG3814, andG5037 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095, andG2532 to be drunkenG3182;
The lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 will comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 forG4328 him, andG2532 atG1722 an hourG5610 whenG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 awareG1097, andG2532 will cutG1371 himG846 in sunderG1371, andG2532 will appointG5087 him hisG846 portionG3313 withG3326 the unbelieversG571. {cut…: or, cut him off}
ForG1063 whenG3752 they shall sayG3004, PeaceG1515 andG2532 safetyG803; thenG5119 suddenG160 destructionG3639 cometh uponG2186 themG846, asG5618 travailG5604 uponG1722 a woman with childG1064+G2192; andG2532 they shallG1628 notG3364 escapeG1628.
InG1722 flamingG5395 fireG4442 takingG1325 vengeanceG1557 on them that knowG1492 notG3361 GodG2316, andG2532 that obeyG5219 notG3361 the gospelG2098 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {taking: or, yielding}
WhoG3748 shall be punishedG1349+G5099 with everlastingG166 destructionG3639 fromG575 the presenceG4383 of the LordG2962, andG2532 fromG575 the gloryG1391 of hisG846 powerG2479;
ButG1161 the heavensG3772 andG2532 the earthG1093, which are nowG3568, by the sameG846 wordG3056 areG1526 kept in storeG2343, reservedG5083 unto fireG4442 againstG1519 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 andG2532 perditionG684 of ungodlyG765 menG444.
ButG1161 the fearfulG1169, andG2532 unbelievingG571, andG2532 the abominableG948, andG2532 murderersG5406, andG2532 whoremongersG4205, andG2532 sorcerersG5332, andG2532 idolatersG1496, andG2532 allG3956 liarsG5571, shall have theirG846 partG3313 inG1722 the lakeG3041 whichG3588 burnethG2545 with fireG4442 andG2532 brimstoneG2303: which isG3603 the secondG1208 deathG2288.
