1 # The vision <02377> of Isaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Amoz <0531>, which he saw <02372> (8804) concerning Judah <03063> and Jerusalem <03389> in the days <03117> of Uzziah <05818>, Jotham <03147>, Ahaz <0271>, and Hezekiah <03169>, kings <04428> of Judah <03063>.
2 # Hear <08085> (8798), O heavens <08064>, and give ear <0238> (8685), O earth <0776>: for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765), I have nourished <01431> (8765) and brought up <07311> (8790) children <01121>, and they have rebelled <06586> (8804) against me.
3 The ox <07794> knoweth <03045> (8804) his owner <07069> (8802), and the ass <02543> his master's <01167> crib <018>: but Israel <03478> doth not know <03045> (8804), my people <05971> doth not consider <0995> (8712).
4 Ah <01945> sinful <02398> (8802) nation <01471>, a people <05971> laden <03515> with iniquity <05771>, a seed <02233> of evildoers <07489> (8688), children <01121> that are corrupters <07843> (8688): they have forsaken <05800> (8804) <0853> the LORD <03068>, they have provoked <05006> <00> <0853> the Holy One <06918> of Israel <03478> unto anger <05006> (8765), they are gone away <02114> (8738) backward <0268>.
5 Why should ye be stricken <05221> (8714) any more? ye will revolt <05627> more and more <03254> (8686): the whole head <07218> is sick <02483>, and the whole heart <03824> faint <01742>.
6 From the sole <03709> of the foot <07272> even unto the head <07218> there is no soundness <04974> in it; but wounds <06482>, and bruises <02250>, and putrifying <02961> sores <04347>: they have not been closed <02115> (8804), neither bound up <02280> (8795), neither mollified <07401> (8795) with ointment <08081>.
7 Your country <0776> is desolate <08077>, your cities <05892> are burned <08313> (8803) with fire <0784>: your land <0127>, strangers <02114> (8801) devour <0398> (8802) it in your presence, and it is desolate <08077>, as overthrown <04114> by strangers <02114> (8801).
8 And the daughter <01323> of Zion <06726> is left <03498> (8738) as a cottage <05521> in a vineyard <03754> , as a lodge <04412> in a garden of cucumbers <04750>, as a besieged <05341> (8803) city <05892>.
9 Except <03884> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> had left <03498> (8689) unto us a very small <04592> remnant <08300>, we should have been <01961> (8804) as Sodom <05467>, and we should have been like <01819> (8804) unto Gomorrah <06017>.
10 # Hear <08085> (8798) the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, ye rulers <07101> of Sodom <05467>; give ear <0238> (8685) unto the law <08451> of our God <0430>, ye people <05971> of Gomorrah <06017>.
11 To what <04100> purpose is the multitude <07230> of your sacrifices <02077> unto me? saith <0559> (8799) the LORD <03068>: I am full <07646> (8804) of the burnt offerings <05930> of rams <0352>, and the fat <02459> of fed beasts <04806>; and I delight <02654> (8804) not in the blood <01818> of bullocks <06499>, or of lambs <03532>, or of he goats <06260>.
12 When ye come <0935> (8799) to appear <07200> (8736) before <06440> me, who hath required <01245> (8765) this at your hand <03027>, to tread <07429> (8800) my courts <02691>?
13 Bring <0935> (8687) no more <03254> (8686) vain <07723> oblations <04503>; incense <07004> is an abomination <08441> unto me; the new moons <02320> and sabbaths <07676>, the calling <07121> (8800) of assemblies <04744> , I cannot away with <03201> (8799); it is iniquity <0205>, even the solemn meeting <06116>.
14 Your new moons <02320> and your appointed feasts <04150> my soul <05315> hateth <08130> (8804): they are a trouble <02960> unto me; I am weary <03811> (8738) to bear <05375> (8800) them.
15 And when ye spread forth <06566> (8763) your hands <03709>, I will hide <05956> (8686) mine eyes <05869> from you: yea, when ye make many <07235> (8686) prayers <08605>, I will not hear <08085> (8802): your hands <03027> are full <04390> (8804) of blood <01818>.
16 # Wash <07364> (8798) you, make you clean <02135> (8690); put away <05493> (8685) the evil <07455> of your doings <04611> from before <05048> mine eyes <05869>; cease <02308> (8798) to do evil <07489> (8687) ;
17 Learn <03925> (8798) to do well <03190> (8687); seek <01875> (8798) judgment <04941> , relieve <0833> (8761) the oppressed <02541>, judge <08199> (8798) the fatherless <03490>, plead <07378> (8798) for the widow <0490>.
18 Come now <03212> (8798), and let us reason together <03198> (8735), saith <0559> (8799) the LORD <03068>: though your sins <02399> be as scarlet <08144>, they shall be as white <03835> (8686) as snow <07950>; though they be red <0119> (8686) like crimson <08438>, they shall be as wool <06785>.
19 If ye be willing <014> (8799) and obedient <08085> (8804), ye shall eat <0398> (8799) the good <02898> of the land <0776>:
20 But if ye refuse <03985> (8762) and rebel <04784> (8804), ye shall be devoured <0398> (8792) with the sword <02719>: for the mouth <06310> of the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765) it.
21 # How is the faithful <0539> (8737) city <07151> become an harlot <02181> (8802)! it was full <04392> of judgment <04941>; righteousness <06664> lodged <03885> (8799) in it; but now murderers <07523> (8764).
22 Thy silver <03701> is become dross <05509>, thy wine <05435> mixed <04107> (8803) with water <04325>:
23 Thy princes <08269> are rebellious <05637> (8802), and companions <02270> of thieves <01590>: every one loveth <0157> (8802) gifts <07810>, and followeth <07291> (8802) after rewards <08021>: they judge <08199> (8799) not the fatherless <03490>, neither doth the cause <07379> of the widow <0490> come <0935> (8799) unto them.
24 Therefore saith <05002> (8803) the Lord <0113>, the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the mighty One <046> of Israel <03478>, Ah <01945>, I will ease <05162> (8735) me of mine adversaries <06862>, and avenge <05358> (8735) me of mine enemies <0341> (8802):
25 And I will turn <07725> (8686) my hand <03027> upon thee, and purely <01253> purge away <06884> (8799) thy dross <05509>, and take away <05493> (8686) all thy tin <0913>:
26 And I will restore <07725> (8686) thy judges <08199> (8802) as at the first <07223>, and thy counsellors <03289> (8802) as at the beginning <08462>: afterward <0310> thou shalt be called <07121> (8735), The city <05892> of righteousness <06664>, the faithful <0539> (8737) city <07151>.
27 Zion <06726> shall be redeemed <06299> (8735) with judgment <04941>, and her converts <07725> (8802) with righteousness <06666>.
28 And the destruction <07667> of the transgressors <06586> (8802) and of the sinners <02400> shall be together <03162>, and they that forsake <05800> (8802) the LORD <03068> shall be consumed <03615> (8799).
29 For they shall be ashamed <0954> (8799) of the oaks <0352> which ye have desired <02530> (8804), and ye shall be confounded <02659> (8799) for the gardens <01593> that ye have chosen <0977> (8804).
30 For ye shall be as an oak <0424> whose leaf <05929> fadeth <05034> (8802), and as a garden <01593> that hath no water <04325>.
31 And the strong <02634> shall be as tow <05296>, and the maker <06467> of it as a spark <05213>, and they shall both <08147> burn <01197> (8804) together <03162>, and none shall quench <03518> (8764) them.
