BeholdH2005, the LORD'SH3068 handH3027 is not shortenedH7114, that it cannot saveH3467; neither his earH241 heavyH3513, that it cannot hearH8085:
But your iniquitiesH5771 have separatedH914 betweenH996 you and your GodH430, and your sinsH2403 have hidH5641 his faceH6440 from you, that he will not hearH8085. {have hid: or, have made him hide}
For your handsH3709 are defiledH1351 with bloodH1818, and your fingersH676 with iniquityH5771; your lipsH8193 have spokenH1696 liesH8267, your tongueH3956 hath mutteredH1897 perversenessH5766.
None callethH7121 for justiceH6664, nor any pleadethH8199 for truthH530: they trustH982 in vanityH8414, and speakH1696 liesH7723; they conceiveH2029 mischiefH5999, and bring forthH3205 iniquityH205.
They hatchH1234 cockatrice'H6848 eggsH1000, and weaveH707 the spider'sH5908 webH6980: he that eatethH398 of their eggsH1000 diethH4191, and that which is crushedH2116 breaketh outH1234 into a viperH660. {cockatrice': or, adder's} {crushed…: or, sprinkled is as if there brake out a viper}
Their websH6980 shall not become garmentsH899, neither shall they coverH3680 themselves with their worksH4639: their worksH4639 are worksH4639 of iniquityH205, and the actH6467 of violenceH2555 is in their handsH3709.
Their feetH7272 runH7323 to evilH7451, and they make hasteH4116 to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818: their thoughtsH4284 are thoughtsH4284 of iniquityH205; wastingH7701 and destructionH7667 are in their pathsH4546. {destruction: Heb. breaking}
The wayH1870 of peaceH7965 they knowH3045 not; and there is no judgmentH4941 in their goingsH4570: they have made them crookedH6140 pathsH5410: whosoever goethH1869 therein shall not knowH3045 peaceH7965. {judgment: or, right}
Therefore is judgmentH4941 farH7368 from us, neither doth justiceH6666 overtakeH5381 us: we waitH6960 for lightH216, but behold obscurityH2822; for brightnessH5054, but we walkH1980 in darknessH653.
We gropeH1659 for the wallH7023 like the blindH5787, and we gropeH1659 as if we had no eyesH5869: we stumbleH3782 at noondayH6672 as in the nightH5399; we are in desolateH820 places as deadH4191 men.
We roarH1993 all like bearsH1677, and mournH1897 soreH1897 like dovesH3123: we lookH6960 for judgmentH4941, but there is none; for salvationH3444, but it is far offH7368 from us.
For our transgressionsH6588 are multipliedH7231 before thee, and our sinsH2403 testifyH6030 against us: for our transgressionsH6588 are with us; and as for our iniquitiesH5771, we knowH3045 them;
In transgressingH6586 and lyingH3584 against the LORDH3068, and departing awayH5253 fromH310 our GodH430, speakingH1696 oppressionH6233 and revoltH5627, conceivingH2029 and utteringH1897 from the heartH3820 wordsH1697 of falsehoodH8267.
And judgmentH4941 is turned awayH5253 backwardH268, and justiceH6666 standethH5975 afar offH7350: for truthH571 is fallenH3782 in the streetH7339, and equityH5229 cannotH3201 enterH935.
Yea, truthH571 failethH5737; and he that departethH5493 from evilH7451 maketh himself a preyH7997: and the LORDH3068 sawH7200 it, and it displeasedH3415+H5869 him that there was no judgmentH4941. {maketh…: or, is accounted mad} {it displeased…: Heb. it was evil in his eyes}
And he sawH7200 that there was no manH376, and wonderedH8074 that there was no intercessorH6293: therefore his armH2220 brought salvationH3467 unto him; and his righteousnessH6666, it sustainedH5564 him.
For he put onH3847 righteousnessH6666 as a breastplateH8302, and an helmetH3553 of salvationH3444 upon his headH7218; and he put onH3847 the garmentsH899 of vengeanceH5359 for clothingH8516, and was cladH5844 with zealH7068 as a clokeH4598.
According toH5921 their deedsH1578, accordingly he will repayH7999, furyH2534 to his adversariesH6862, recompenceH1576 to his enemiesH341; to the islandsH339 he will repayH7999 recompenceH1576. {deeds: Heb. recompences}
So shall they fearH3372 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 from the westH4628, and his gloryH3519 from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121. When the enemyH6862 shall come inH935 like a floodH5104, the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 shall lift up a standardH5127 against him. {lift…: or, put him to flight}
And the RedeemerH1350 shall comeH935 to ZionH6726, and unto them that turnH7725 from transgressionH6588 in JacobH3290, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
As for me, this is my covenantH1285 with them, saithH559 the LORDH3068; My spiritH7307 that is upon thee, and my wordsH1697 which I have putH7760 in thy mouthH6310, shall not departH4185 out of thy mouthH6310, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seedH2233, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seed'sH2233 seedH2233, saithH559 the LORDH3068, from henceforth and forH5704 everH5769.
Querverweise zu Jesaja 59,13 Jes 59,13
For the vile personH5036 will speakH1696 villanyH5039, and his heartH3820 will workH6213 iniquityH205, to practiseH6213 hypocrisyH2612, and to utterH1696 errorH8442 against the LORDH3068, to make emptyH7324 the soulH5315 of the hungryH7457, and he will cause the drinkH4945 of the thirstyH6771 to failH2637.
But this peopleH5971 hath a revoltingH5637 and a rebelliousH4784 heartH3820; they are revoltedH5493 and goneH3212.
Yea, thou heardestH8085 not; yea, thou knewestH3045 not; yea, from that time that thine earH241 was not openedH6605: for I knewH3045 that thou wouldest deal veryH898 treacherouslyH898, and wast calledH7121 a transgressorH6586 from the wombH990.
For I have keptH8104 the waysH1870 of the LORDH3068, and have not wickedly departedH7561 from my GodH430.
Oh thatH5414 I had in the wildernessH4057 a lodging placeH4411 of wayfaring menH732; that I might leaveH5800 my peopleH5971, and goH3212 from them! for they be all adulterersH5003, an assemblyH6116 of treacherous menH898.
And they bendH1869 their tonguesH3956 like their bowH7198 for liesH8267: but they are not valiantH1396 for the truthH530 upon the earthH776; for they proceedH3318 from evilH7451 to evilH7451, and they knowH3045 not me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Take ye heedH8104 every oneH376 of his neighbourH7453, and trustH982 ye not in any brotherH251: for every brotherH251 will utterlyH6117 supplantH6117, and every neighbourH7453 will walkH1980 with slandersH7400. {neighbour: or, friend}
And they will deceiveH2048 every oneH376 his neighbourH7453, and will not speakH1696 the truthH571: they have taughtH3925 their tongueH3956 to speakH1696 liesH8267, and wearyH3811 themselves to commit iniquityH5753. {deceive: or, mock}
And of whom hast thou been afraidH1672 or fearedH3372, that thou hast liedH3576, and hast not rememberedH2142 me, nor laidH7760 it to thy heartH3820? have not I held my peaceH2814 even of oldH5769, and thou fearestH3372 me not?
For my peopleH5971 have committedH6213 twoH8147 evilsH7451; they have forsakenH5800 me the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325, and hewed them outH2672 cisternsH877, brokenH7665 cisternsH877, that can holdH3557 no waterH4325.
O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, howG4459 can yeG1410, beingG5607 evilG4190, speakG2980 good thingsG18? forG1063 out ofG1537 the abundanceG4051 of the heartG2588 the mouthG4750 speakethG2980.
A goodG18 manG444 out ofG1537 the goodG18 treasureG2344 of the heartG2588 bringeth forthG1544 good thingsG18: andG2532 an evilG4190 manG444 out ofG1537 the evilG4190 treasureG2344 bringeth forthG1544 evil thingsG4190.
ButG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 everyG3956 idleG692 wordG4487 thatG3739+G1437 menG444 shall speakG2980, they shall giveG591 accountG3056 thereofG4012+G846 inG1722 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920.
Nevertheless they did flatterH6601 him with their mouthH6310, and they liedH3576 unto him with their tonguesH3956.
Thine own wickednessH7451 shall correctH3256 thee, and thy backslidingsH4878 shall reproveH3198 thee: knowH3045 therefore and seeH7200 that it is an evilH7451 thing and bitterH4751, that thou hast forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and that my fearH6345 is not in thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.
For of old timeH5769 I have brokenH7665 thy yokeH5923, and burstH5423 thy bandsH4147; and thou saidstH559, I will not transgressH5674+H5647; when upon every highH1364 hillH1389 and under every greenH7488 treeH6086 thou wanderestH6808, playing the harlotH2181. {transgress: or, serve}
Yet I had plantedH5193 thee a noble vineH8321, wholly a rightH571 seedH2233: how then art thou turnedH2015 into the degenerate plantH5494 of a strangeH5237 vineH1612 unto me?
ForG1063 from withinG2081, out ofG1537 the heartG2588 of menG444, proceedG1607 evilG2556 thoughtsG1261, adulteriesG3430, fornicationsG4202, murdersG5408,
And yet for all this her treacherousH901 sisterH269 JudahH3063 hath not turnedH7725 unto me with her whole heartH3820, but feignedlyH8267, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {feignedly: Heb. in falsehood}
SurelyH403 as a wifeH802 treacherouslyH898 departeth from her husbandH7453, so have ye dealt treacherouslyH898 with me, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {husband: Heb. friend}
TheftsG2829, covetousnessG4124, wickednessG4189, deceitG1388, lasciviousnessG766, an evilG4190 eyeG3788, blasphemyG988, prideG5243, foolishnessG877: {covetousness…: Gr. covetousnesses, wickednesses}
For ye dissembledH8582 in your heartsH5315, when ye sentH7971 me unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430, sayingH559, PrayH6419 for us unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430; and according unto all that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 shall sayH559, so declareH5046 unto us, and we will doH6213 it. {ye dissembled…: or, ye have used deceit against your souls}
O LORDH3068, the hopeH4723 of IsraelH3478, all that forsakeH5800 thee shall be ashamedH954, and they that departH3249 from meH5493 shall be writtenH3789 in the earthH776, because they have forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068, the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325.
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125+G3754, There isG2076 noneG3756 righteousG1342, no, notG3761 oneG1520:
There isG2076 noneG3756 that understandethG4920, there isG2076 noneG3756 that seeketh afterG1567 GodG2316.
They areG1578 allG3956 gone out of the wayG1578, they areG889 togetherG260 become unprofitableG889; there isG2076 noneG3756 that doethG4160 goodG5544, no, notG3756 oneG2076+G2193+G1520.
TheirG846 throatG2995 is an openG455 sepulchreG5028; with theirG846 tonguesG1100 they have used deceitG1387; the poisonG2447 of aspsG785 is underG5259 theirG846 lipsG5491:
WhoseG3739 mouthG4750 is fullG1073 of cursingG685 andG2532 bitternessG4088:
TheirG846 feetG4228 are swiftG3691 to shedG1632 bloodG129:
DestructionG4938 andG2532 miseryG5004 are inG1722 theirG846 waysG3598:
AndG2532 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515 haveG1097 they notG3756 knownG1097:
There isG2076 noG3756 fearG5401 of GodG2316 beforeG561 theirG846 eyesG3788.
Yet ye sayH559, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not equalH8505. HearH8085 now, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; Is not my wayH1870 equalH8505? are not your waysH1870 unequalH8505?
And I will makeH3772 an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 with them, that I will not turn awayH7725 from themH310, to do them goodH3190; but I will putH5414 my fearH3374 in their heartsH3824, that they shall not departH5493 from me. {from them: Heb. from after them}
ThenG1534 when lustG1939 hath conceivedG4815, it bringeth forthG5088 sinG266: andG1161 sinG266, when it is finishedG658, bringeth forthG616 deathG2288.
But they like menH120 have transgressedH5674 the covenantH1285: there have they dealt treacherouslyH898 against me. {men: or, Adam}
And they that escapeH6412 of you shall rememberH2142 me among the nationsH1471 whither they shall be carried captivesH7617, because I am brokenH7665 with their whorishH2181 heartH3820, which hath departedH5493 from me, and with their eyesH5869, which go a whoringH2181 afterH310 their idolsH1544: and they shall lotheH6962 themselvesH6440 for the evilsH7451 which they have committedH6213 in all their abominationsH8441.
AndG2532 the tongueG1100 is a fireG4442, a worldG2889 of iniquityG93: soG3779 isG2525 the tongueG1100 amongG1722 ourG2257 membersG3196, that it defilethG4695 the wholeG3650 bodyG4983, andG2532 setteth on fireG5394 the courseG5164 of natureG1078; andG2532 it is set on fireG5394 ofG5259 hellG1067. {course: Gr. wheel}
WoeH188 unto them! for they have fledH5074 from me: destructionH7701 unto them! because they have transgressedH6586 against me: though I have redeemedH6299 them, yet they have spokenH1696 liesH3577 against me. {destruction: Heb. spoil}
The beginningH8462 of the wordH1696 of the LORDH3068 by HoseaH1954. And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to HoseaH1954, GoH3212, takeH3947 unto thee a wifeH802 of whoredomsH2183 and childrenH3206 of whoredomsH2183: for the landH776 hath committed greatH2181 whoredomH2181, departing fromH310 the LORDH3068.
EphraimH669 compassethH5437 me about with liesH3585, and the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 with deceitH4820: but JudahH3063 yet rulethH7300 with GodH410, and is faithfulH539 with the saintsH6918. {saints: or, most holy}
Take heedG991, brethrenG80, lestG3379 there beG2071 inG1722 anyG5100 of youG5216 an evilG4190 heartG2588 of unbeliefG570, inG1722 departingG868 fromG575 the livingG2198 GodG2316.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 saidG2036, AnaniasG367, whyG1302 hath SatanG4567 filledG4137 thineG4675 heartG2588+G4571 to lieG5574 to the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 to keep backG3557 part ofG575 the priceG5092 of the landG5564? {to lie to: or, to deceive}
Whiles it remainedG3306, was it notG3780 thine ownG4671+G3306? andG2532 after it was soldG4097, was it notG5225 inG1722 thine ownG4674 powerG1849? whyG5101+G3754 hast thou conceivedG5087 thisG5124 thingG4229 inG1722 thineG4675 heartG2588? thou hastG5574 notG3756 liedG5574 unto menG444, butG235 unto GodG2316.
