Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, StandH5975 ye in the waysH1870, and seeH7200, and askH7592 for the oldH5769 pathsH5410, where is the goodH2896 wayH1870, and walkH3212 therein, and ye shall findH4672 restH4771 for your soulsH5315. But they saidH559, We will not walkH3212 therein.
Also I setH6965 watchmenH6822 over you, saying, HearkenH7181 to the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782. But they saidH559, We will not hearkenH7181.
Therefore hearH8085, ye nationsH1471, and knowH3045, O congregationH5712, what is among them.
HearH8085, O earthH776: behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, even the fruitH6529 of their thoughtsH4284, because they have not hearkenedH7181 unto my wordsH1697, nor to my lawH8451, but rejectedH3988 it.
To what purpose comethH935 there to me incenseH3828 from ShebaH7614, and the sweetH2896 caneH7070 from a farH4801 countryH776? your burnt offeringsH5930 are not acceptableH7522, nor your sacrificesH2077 sweetH6149 unto me.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will layH5414 stumblingblocksH4383 before this peopleH5971, and the fathersH1 and the sonsH1121 togetherH3162 shall fallH3782 upon them; the neighbourH7934 and his friendH7453 shall perishH6.
Let us searchH2664 and tryH2713 our waysH1870, and turn againH7725 to the LORDH3068.
For enquireH7592, I pray thee, of the formerH7223+H7223 ageH1755, and prepareH3559 thyself to the searchH2714 of their fathersH1:
Hast thou markedH8104 the oldH5769 wayH734 which wickedH205 menH4962 have troddenH1869?
RememberH2142 the daysH3117 of oldH5769, considerH995 the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755: askH7592 thy fatherH1, and he will shewH5046 thee; thy eldersH2205, and they will tellH559 thee. {many…: Heb. generation and generation}
And the LORDH3068 was with JehoshaphatH3092, because he walkedH1980 in the firstH7223 waysH1870 of his fatherH1 DavidH1732, and soughtH1875 not unto BaalimH1168; {of…: or, of his father, and of David}
But soughtH1875 to the LORD GodH430 of his fatherH1, and walkedH1980 in his commandmentsH4687, and not after the doingsH4639 of IsraelH3478.
That ye may be mindfulG3415 of the wordsG4487 which were spoken beforeG4280 byG5259 the holyG40 prophetsG4396, andG2532 of the commandmentG1785 of usG2257 the apostlesG652 of the LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990:
JudeG2455, the servantG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG1161 brotherG80 of JamesG2385, to them that are sanctifiedG37 byG1722 GodG2316 the FatherG3962, andG2532 preservedG5083 in JesusG2424 ChristG5547, and calledG2822:
TakeG142 myG3450 yokeG2218 uponG1909 youG5209, andG2532 learnG3129 ofG575 meG1700; forG3754 I amG1510 meekG4235 andG2532 lowlyG5011 in heartG2588: andG2532 ye shall findG2147 restG372 unto yourG5216 soulsG5590.
ForG1063 myG3450 yokeG2218 is easyG5543, andG2532 myG3450 burdenG5413 isG2076 lightG1645.
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}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; PutH5595 your burnt offeringsH5930 unto your sacrificesH2077, and eatH398 fleshH1320.
For I spakeH1696 not unto your fathersH1, nor commandedH6680 them in the dayH3117 that I brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, concerningH1697 burnt offeringsH5930 or sacrificesH2077: {concerning: Heb. concerning the matter of}
But this thingH1697 commandedH6680 I them, sayingH559, ObeyH8085 my voiceH6963, and I will be your GodH430, and ye shall be my peopleH5971: and walkH1980 ye in all the waysH1870 that I have commandedH6680 you, that it may be wellH3190 unto you.
For I desiredH2654 mercyH2617, and not sacrificeH2077; and the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430 more than burnt offeringsH5930.
I hateH8130, I despiseH3988 your feast daysH2282, and I will not smellH7306 in your solemn assembliesH6116. {in…: or, your holy days}
Though ye offerH5927 me burnt offeringsH5930 and your meat offeringsH4503, I will not acceptH7521 them: neither will I regardH5027 the peace offeringsH8002 of your fat beastsH4806. {peace…: or, thank offerings}
Take thou awayH5493 from me the noiseH1995 of thy songsH7892; for I will not hearH8085 the melodyH2172 of thy violsH5035.
But let judgmentH4941 run downH1556 as watersH4325, and righteousnessH6666 as a mightyH386 streamH5158. {run: Heb. roll}
Have ye offeredH5066 unto me sacrificesH2077 and offeringsH4503 in the wildernessH4057 fortyH705 yearsH8141, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478?
But ye have borneH5375 the tabernacleH5522 of your MolochH4428 and ChiunH3594 your imagesH6754, the starH3556 of your godH430, which ye madeH6213 to yourselves. {the tabernacle…: or, Siccuth your king}
Therefore will I cause you to go into captivityH1540 beyondH1973 DamascusH1834, saithH559 the LORDH3068, whose nameH8034 is The GodH430 of hostsH6635.
Wherewith shall I come beforeH6923 the LORDH3068, and bowH3721 myself before the highH4791 GodH430? shall I come beforeH6923 him with burnt offeringsH5930, with calvesH5695 of a yearH8141 oldH1121? {of a…: Heb. sons of a year?}
Will the LORDH3068 be pleasedH7521 with thousandsH505 of ramsH352, or with ten thousandsH7233 of riversH5158 of oilH8081? shall I giveH5414 my firstbornH1060 for my transgressionH6588, the fruitH6529 of my bodyH990 for the sinH2403 of my soulH5315? {body: Heb. belly}
He hath shewedH5046 thee, O manH120, what is goodH2896; and what doth the LORDH3068 requireH1875 of thee, but to doH6213 justlyH4941, and to loveH160 mercyH2617, and to walkH3212 humblyH6800 with thy GodH430? {walk…: Heb. humble thyself to walk}
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, Hath the LORDH3068 as great delightH2656 in burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificesH2077, as in obeyingH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068? Behold, to obeyH8085 is betterH2896 than sacrificeH2077, and to hearkenH7181 than the fatH2459 of ramsH352.
