But now thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 that createdH1254 thee, O JacobH3290, and he that formedH3335 thee, O IsraelH3478, FearH3372 not: for I have redeemedH1350 thee, I have calledH7121 thee by thy nameH8034; thou art mine.
When thou passest throughH5674 the watersH4325, I will be with thee; and through the riversH5104, they shall not overflowH7857 thee: when thou walkestH3212 throughH1119 the fireH784, thou shalt not be burnedH3554; neither shall the flameH3852 kindleH1197 upon thee.
For I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, thy SaviourH3467: I gaveH5414 EgyptH4714 for thy ransomH3724, EthiopiaH3568 and SebaH5434 for thee.
Since thou wast preciousH3365 in my sightH5869, thou hast been honourableH3513, and I have lovedH157 thee: therefore will I giveH5414 menH120 for thee, and peopleH3816 for thy lifeH5315. {life: or, person}
FearH3372 not: for I am with thee: I will bringH935 thy seedH2233 from the eastH4217, and gatherH6908 thee from the westH4628;
I will sayH559 to the northH6828, Give upH5414; and to the southH8486, Keep not backH3607: bringH935 my sonsH1121 from farH7350, and my daughtersH1323 from the endsH7097 of the earthH776;
Even every oneH3605 that is calledH7121 by my nameH8034: for I have createdH1254 him for my gloryH3519, I have formedH3335 him; yea, I have madeH6213 him.
Bring forthH3318 the blindH5787 peopleH5971 that haveH3426 eyesH5869, and the deafH2795 that have earsH241.
Let all the nationsH1471 be gatheredH6908 togetherH3162, and let the peopleH3816 be assembledH622: who among them can declareH5046 this, and shewH8085 us former thingsH7223? let them bring forthH5414 their witnessesH5707, that they may be justifiedH6663: or let them hearH8085, and sayH559, It is truthH571.
Ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and my servantH5650 whom I have chosenH977: that ye may knowH3045 and believeH539 me, and understandH995 that I am he: beforeH6440 me there was no GodH410 formedH3335, neither shall there be afterH310 me. {no…: or, nothing formed of God}
I, even I, am the LORDH3068; and besideH1107 me there is no saviourH3467.
I have declaredH5046, and have savedH3467, and I have shewedH8085, when there was no strangeH2114 god among you: therefore ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I am GodH410.
Yea, before the dayH3117 was I am he; and there is none that can deliverH5337 out of my handH3027: I will workH6466, and who shall letH7725 it? {let it: Heb. turn it back?}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, your redeemerH1350, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478; For your sake I have sentH7971 to BabylonH894, and have brought downH3381 all their noblesH1281, and the ChaldeansH3778, whose cryH7440 is in the shipsH591. {nobles: Heb. bars}
I am the LORDH3068, your Holy OneH6918, the creatorH1254 of IsraelH3478, your KingH4428.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, which makethH5414 a wayH1870 in the seaH3220, and a pathH5410 in the mightyH5794 watersH4325;
Which bringeth forthH3318 the chariotH7393 and horseH5483, the armyH2428 and the powerH5808; they shall lie downH7901 togetherH3162, they shall not riseH6965: they are extinctH1846, they are quenchedH3518 as towH6594.
RememberH2142 ye not the former thingsH7223, neither considerH995 the things of oldH6931.
Behold, I will doH6213 a new thingH2319; now it shall spring forthH6779; shall ye not knowH3045 it? I will even makeH7760 a wayH1870 in the wildernessH4057, and riversH5104 in the desertH3452.
The beastH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall honourH3513 me, the dragonsH8577 and the owlsH1323+H3284: because I giveH5414 watersH4325 in the wildernessH4057, and riversH5104 in the desertH3452, to give drinkH8248 to my peopleH5971, my chosenH972. {owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
ThisH2098 peopleH5971 have I formedH3335 for myself; they shall shew forthH5608 my praiseH8416.
But thou hast not calledH7121 upon me, O JacobH3290; but thou hast been wearyH3021 of me, O IsraelH3478.
Thou hast not broughtH935 me the small cattleH7716 of thy burnt offeringsH5930; neither hast thou honouredH3513 me with thy sacrificesH2077. I have not caused thee to serveH5647 with an offeringH4503, nor weariedH3021 thee with incenseH3828. {small…: Heb. lambs, or, kids}
Thou hast boughtH7069 me no sweet caneH7070 with moneyH3701, neither hast thou filledH7301 me with the fatH2459 of thy sacrificesH2077: but thou hast made me to serveH5647 with thy sinsH2403, thou hast weariedH3021 me with thine iniquitiesH5771. {filled…: Heb. made me drunk, or, abundantly moistened}
I, even I, am he that blotteth outH4229 thy transgressionsH6588 for mine own sake, and will not rememberH2142 thy sinsH2403.
Put me in remembranceH2142: let us pleadH8199 togetherH3162: declareH5608 thou, that thou mayest be justifiedH6663.
Thy firstH7223 fatherH1 hath sinnedH2398, and thy teachersH3887 have transgressedH6586 against me. {teachers: Heb. interpreters}
Therefore I have profanedH2490 the princesH8269 of the sanctuaryH6944, and have givenH5414 JacobH3290 to the curseH2764, and IsraelH3478 to reproachesH1421. {princes…: or, holy princes}

And, behold, ye are risen upH6965 in your fathers'H1 stead, an increaseH8635 of sinfulH2400 menH582, to augmentH5595 yet the fierceH2740 angerH639 of the LORDH3068 toward IsraelH3478.
As for my peopleH5971, childrenH5953 are their oppressorsH5065, and womenH802 ruleH4910 over them. O my peopleH5971, they which leadH833 thee cause thee to errH8582, and destroyH1104 the wayH1870 of thy pathsH734. {lead…: or, call thee blessed} {destroy: Heb. swallow up}
And might not be as their fathersH1, a stubbornH5637 and rebelliousH4784 generationH1755; a generationH1755 that setH3559 not their heartH3820 arightH3559, and whose spiritH7307 was not stedfastH539 with GodH410. {that…: Heb. that prepared not their heart}
But theyH428 also have erredH7686 through wineH3196, and through strong drinkH7941 are out of the wayH8582; the priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 have erredH7686 through strong drinkH7941, they are swallowed upH1104 ofH4480 wineH3196, they are out of the wayH8582 through strong drinkH7941; they errH7686 in visionH7203, they stumbleH6328 in judgmentH6417.
We have sinnedH2398 with our fathersH1, we have committed iniquityH5753, we have done wickedlyH7561.
His watchmenH6822 are blindH5787: they are all ignorantH3045, they are all dumbH483 dogsH3611, they cannotH3201 barkH5024; sleepingH1957, lying downH7901, lovingH157 to slumberH5123. {sleeping: or, dreaming, or, talking in their sleep}
Yea, they are greedyH5794+H5315 dogsH3611 which canH3045 never haveH3045 enoughH7654, and they are shepherdsH7462 that cannot understandH995: they all lookH6437 to their own wayH1870, every oneH376 for his gainH1215, from his quarterH7097. {greedy: Heb. strong of appetite} {can…: Heb. know not to be satisfied}
ComeH857 ye, say they, I will fetchH3947 wineH3196, and we will fillH5433 ourselves with strong drinkH7941; and to morrowH4279 shall be as this dayH3117, and muchH3966 moreH3499 abundantH1419.
Our fathersH1 understoodH7919 not thy wondersH6381 in EgyptH4714; they rememberedH2142 not the multitudeH7230 of thy merciesH2617; but provokedH4784 him at the seaH3220, even at the RedH5488 seaH3220.
The prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 falselyH8267, and the priestsH3548 bear ruleH7287 by their meansH3027; and my peopleH5971 loveH157 to have it so: and what will ye doH6213 in the endH319 thereof? {bear…: or, take into their hands}
We lie downH7901 in our shameH1322, and our confusionH3639 coverethH3680 us: for we have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068 our GodH430, we and our fathersH1, from our youthH5271 even unto this dayH3117, and have not obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
For both prophetH5030 and priestH3548 are profaneH2610; yea, in my houseH1004 have I foundH4672 their wickednessH7451, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Wherefore their wayH1870 shall be unto them as slipperyH2519 ways in the darknessH653: they shall be driven onH1760, and fallH5307 therein: for I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, even the yearH8141 of their visitationH6486, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And I have seenH7200 follyH8604 in the prophetsH5030 of SamariaH8111; they prophesiedH5012 in BaalH1168, and caused my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 to errH8582. {folly: or, an absurd thing: Heb. unsavoury}
I have seenH7200 also in the prophetsH5030 of JerusalemH3389 an horrible thingH8186: they commit adulteryH5003, and walkH1980 in liesH8267: they strengthenH2388 also the handsH3027 of evildoersH7489, that noneH376 doth returnH7725 from his wickednessH7451: they are all of them unto me as SodomH5467, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof as GomorrahH6017. {an…: or, filthiness}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 concerning the prophetsH5030; Behold, I will feedH398 them with wormwoodH3939, and make them drinkH8248 the waterH4325 of gallH7219: for from the prophetsH5030 of JerusalemH3389 is profanenessH2613 gone forthH3318 into all the landH776. {profaneness: or, hypocrisy}
And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 unto JerusalemH3389; Thy birthH4351 and thy nativityH4138 is of the landH776 of CanaanH3669; thy fatherH1 was an AmoriteH567, and thy motherH517 an HittiteH2850. {birth: Heb. cutting out, or, habitation}
For the sinsH2403 of her prophetsH5030, and the iniquitiesH5771 of her priestsH3548, that have shedH8210 the bloodH1818 of the justH6662 in the midstH7130 of her,
Be ye not as your fathersH1, unto whom the formerH7223 prophetsH5030 have criedH7121, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; TurnH7725 ye now from your evilH7451 waysH1870, and from your evilH7451 doingsH4611: but they did not hearH8085, nor hearkenH7181 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Your fathersH1, where are they? and the prophetsH5030, do they liveH2421 for everH5769?
But my wordsH1697 and my statutesH2706, which I commandedH6680 my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, did they not take holdH5381 of your fathersH1? and they returnedH7725 and saidH559, Like as the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 thoughtH2161 to doH6213 unto us, according to our waysH1870, and according to our doingsH4611, so hath he dealtH6213 with us. {take…: or, overtake}
They have wanderedH5128 as blindH5787 men in the streetsH2351, they have pollutedH1351 themselves with bloodH1818, so that men couldH3201 notH3808 touchH5060 their garmentsH3830. {so…: or, in that they could not but touch}
Even from the daysH3117 of your fathersH1 ye are gone awayH5493 from mine ordinancesH2706, and have not keptH8104 them. ReturnH7725 unto me, and I will returnH7725 unto you, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. But ye saidH559, Wherein shall we returnH7725?
There is a conspiracyH7195 of her prophetsH5030 in the midstH8432 thereof, like a roaringH7580 lionH738 raveningH2963 the preyH2964; they have devouredH398 soulsH5315; they have takenH3947 the treasureH2633 and precious thingsH3366; they have made her manyH7235 widowsH490 in the midstH8432 thereof.
Her priestsH3548 have violatedH2554 my lawH8451, and have profanedH2490 mine holy thingsH6944: they have put no differenceH914 between the holyH6944 and profaneH2455, neither have they shewedH3045 difference between the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889, and have hidH5956 their eyesH5869 from my sabbathsH7676, and I am profanedH2490 amongH8432 them. {violated: Heb. offered violence to}
Her princesH8269 in the midstH7130 thereof are like wolvesH2061 raveningH2963 the preyH2964, to shedH8210 bloodH1818, and to destroyH6 soulsH5315, to getH1214 dishonest gainH1215.
And her prophetsH5030 have daubedH2902 them with untemperedH8602 morter, seeingH2374 vanityH7723, and diviningH7080 liesH3577 unto them, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069, when the LORDH3068 hath not spokenH1696.
Ye stiffneckedG4644 andG2532 uncircumcisedG564 in heartG2588 andG2532 earsG3775, yeG5210 doG496 alwaysG104 resistG496 the HolyG40 GhostG4151: asG5613 yourG5216 fathersG3962 did, soG2532 do yeG5210.
My peopleH5971 are destroyedH1820 for lack of knowledgeH1847: because thou hast rejectedH3988 knowledgeH1847, I will also rejectH3988 thee, that thou shalt be no priestH3547 to me: seeing thou hast forgottenH7911 the lawH8451 of thy GodH430, I will also forgetH7911 thy childrenH1121. {destroyed: Heb. cut off}
WhereforeG1223+G5124, asG5618 byG1223 oneG1520 manG444 sinG266 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the worldG2889, andG2532 deathG2288 byG1223 sinG266; andG2532 soG3779 deathG2288 passedG1330 uponG1519 allG3956 menG444, forG1909 thatG3739 allG3956 have sinnedG264: {for that: or, in whom}
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}
And ye shall knowH3045 that I have sentH7971 this commandmentH4687 unto you, that my covenantH1285 might be with LeviH3878, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
My covenantH1285 was with him of lifeH2416 and peaceH7965; and I gaveH5414 them to him for the fearH4172 wherewith he fearedH3372 me, and was afraidH2865 beforeH6440 my nameH8034.
The lawH8451 of truthH571 was in his mouthH6310, and iniquityH5766 was not foundH4672 in his lipsH8193: he walkedH1980 with me in peaceH7965 and equityH4334, and did turnH7725 manyH7227 awayH7725 from iniquityH5771.
For the priest'sH3548 lipsH8193 should keepH8104 knowledgeH1847, and they should seekH1245 the lawH8451 at his mouthH6310: for he is the messengerH4397 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
But ye are departedH5493 out of the wayH1870; ye have caused manyH7227 to stumbleH3782 at the lawH8451; ye have corruptedH7843 the covenantH1285 of LeviH3878, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {stumble at: or, fall in}
LetG863 themG846 aloneG863: they beG1526 blindG5185 leadersG3595 of the blindG5185. AndG1161 ifG1437 the blindG5185 leadG3594 the blindG5185, bothG297 shall fallG4098 intoG1519 the ditchG999.
WhenG1161 the morningG4405 was comeG1096, allG3956 the chief priestsG749 andG2532 eldersG4245 of the peopleG2992 tookG2983 counselG4824 againstG2596 JesusG2424 toG5620 putG2289 himG846 to deathG2289:
LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the chief priestsG749 mockingG1702 him, withG3326 the scribesG1122 andG2532 eldersG4245, saidG3004,
AndG1161 oneG1520+G5100 ofG1537 themG846, named CaiaphasG2533, beingG5607 the high priestG749 that sameG1565 yearG1763, saidG2036 unto themG846, YeG5210 knowG1492 nothing at allG3756+G3762,
NorG3761 considerG1260 thatG3754 it is expedientG4851 for usG2254, thatG2443 oneG1520 manG444 should dieG599 forG5228 the peopleG2992, andG2532 that the wholeG3650 nationG1484 perishG622 notG3361.
AndG1161 thisG5124 spake heG2036 notG3756 ofG575 himselfG1438: butG235 beingG5607 high priestG749 thatG1565 yearG1763, he prophesiedG4395 thatG3754 JesusG2424 shouldG3195 dieG599 for thatG5228 nationG1484;
AndG2532 notG3756 for thatG5228 nationG1484 onlyG3440, butG235 thatG2443 alsoG2532 he should gather togetherG4863 inG1519 oneG1520 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316 that were scattered abroadG1287.
ThenG3767 fromG575 thatG1565 dayG2250 forth they took counsel togetherG4823 for toG2443 putG615 himG846 to deathG615.
