Isaiah

Chapter 65

1 I am sought1875 of them that asked7592 not3808 for me; I am found4672 of them that sought1245 me not:3808 I said,559 Behold2009 me, behold2009 me, unto413 a nation1471 that was not3808 called7121 by my name.8034

2 I have spread out6566 my hands3027 all3605 the day3117 unto413 a rebellious5637 people,5971 which walketh1980 in a way1870 that was not3808 good,2896 after310 their own thoughts;4284

3 A people5971 that provoketh me to anger3707 853 continually8548 to5921 my face;6440 that sacrificeth2076 in gardens,1593 and burneth incense6999 upon5921 altars of brick;3843

4 Which remain3427 among the graves,6913 and lodge3885 in the monuments,5341 which eat398 swine's2386 flesh,1320 and broth4839 of abominable6292 things is in their vessels;3627

5 Which say,559 Stand7126 by413 thyself, come not near5066 408 to me; for3588 I am holier6942 than thou. These428 are a smoke6227 in my nose,639 a fire784 that burneth3344 all3605 the day.3117

6 Behold,2009 it is written3789 before6440 me: I will not3808 keep silence,2814 but3588 518 will recompense,7999 even recompense7999 into5921 their bosom,2436

7 Your iniquities,5771 and the iniquities5771 of your fathers1 together,3162 saith559 the LORD,3068 which834 have burned incense6999 upon5921 the mountains,2022 and blasphemed2778 me upon5921 the hills:1389 therefore will I measure4058 their former7223 work6468 into413 their bosom.2436

8 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 As834 the new wine8492 is found4672 in the cluster,811 and one saith,559 Destroy7843 it not;408 for3588 a blessing1293 is in it: so3651 will I do6213 for my servants' sakes,4616 5650 that I may not1115 destroy7843 them all.3605

9 And I will bring forth3318 a seed2233 out of Jacob,4480 3290 and out of Judah4480 3063 an inheritor3423 of my mountains:2022 and mine elect972 shall inherit3423 it, and my servants5650 shall dwell7931 there.8033

10 And Sharon8289 shall be1961 a fold5116 of flocks,6629 and the valley6010 of Achor5911 a place for the herds1241 to lie down in,7258 for my people5971 that834 have sought1875 me.

11 But ye859 are they that forsake5800 the LORD,3068 that forget7913 853 my holy6944 mountain,2022 that prepare6186 a table7979 for that troop,1408 and that furnish4390 the drink offering4469 unto that number.4507

12 Therefore will I number4487 you to the sword,2719 and ye shall all3605 bow down3766 to the slaughter:2874 because3282 when I called,7121 ye did not3808 answer;6030 when I spoke,1696 ye did not3808 hear;8085 but did6213 evil7451 before mine eyes,5869 and did choose977 that wherein834 I delighted2654 not.3808

13 Therefore3651 thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD,3069 Behold,2009 my servants5650 shall eat,398 but ye859 shall be hungry:7456 behold,2009 my servants5650 shall drink,8354 but ye859 shall be thirsty:6770 behold,2009 my servants5650 shall rejoice,8055 but ye859 shall be ashamed: 954

14 Behold,2009 my servants5650 shall sing7442 for joy4480 2898 of heart,3820 but ye859 shall cry6817 for sorrow4480 3511 of heart,3820 and shall howl3213 for vexation4480 7667 of spirit.7307

15 And ye shall leave5117 your name8034 for a curse7621 unto my chosen:972 for the Lord136 GOD3069 shall slay4191 thee, and call7121 his servants5650 by another312 name: 8034

16 That he who834 blesseth himself1288 in the earth776 shall bless himself1288 in the God430 of truth;543 and he that sweareth7650 in the earth776 shall swear7650 by the God430 of truth;543 because3588 the former7223 troubles6869 are forgotten,7911 and because3588 they are hid5641 from mine eyes.4480 5869

17 For,3588 behold,2009 I create1254 new2319 heavens8064 and a new2319 earth:776 and the former7223 shall not3808 be remembered,2142 nor3808 come5927 into5921 mind.3820

18 But3588 518 be ye glad7797 and rejoice1523 forever5704 5703 in that which834 I589 create:1254 for,3588 behold,2009 I create1254 853 Jerusalem3389 a rejoicing,1525 and her people5971 a joy.4885

19 And I will rejoice1523 in Jerusalem,3389 and joy7797 in my people:5971 and the voice6963 of weeping1065 shall be no3808 more5750 heard8085 in her, nor the voice6963 of crying.2201

20 There shall be1961 no3808 more5750 thence4480 8033 an infant5764 of days,3117 nor an old man2205 that834 hath not3808 filled4390 853 his days:3117 for3588 the child5288 shall die4191 a hundred3967 years8141 old;1121 but the sinner2398 being a hundred3967 years8141 old1121 shall be accursed.7043

21 And they shall build1129 houses,1004 and inhabit3427 them; and they shall plant5193 vineyards,3754 and eat398 the fruit6529 of them.

22 They shall not3808 build,1129 and another312 inhabit;3427 they shall not3808 plant,5193 and another312 eat:398 for3588 as the days3117 of a tree6086 are the days3117 of my people,5971 and mine elect972 shall long enjoy1086 the work4639 of their hands.3027

23 They shall not3808 labor3021 in vain,7385 nor3808 bring forth3205 for trouble;928 for3588 they1992 are the seed2233 of the blessed1288 of the LORD,3068 and their offspring6631 with854 them.

24 And it shall come to pass,1961 that before2962 they call,7121 I589 will answer;6030 and while they1992 are yet5750 speaking,1696 I589 will hear.8085

25 The wolf2061 and the lamb2924 shall feed7462 together,259 and the lion738 shall eat398 straw8401 like the bullock:1241 and dust6083 shall be the serpent's5175 meat.3899 They shall not3808 hurt7489 nor3808 destroy7843 in all3605 my holy6944 mountain,2022 saith559 the LORD.3068

Isaiah

Chapter 65

1 I AM sought of those who did not ask for me; I am found of those who sought me not; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation that has never called my name.

2 I have spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts,

3 A people who provoke me to anger continually, who sacrifice in the gardens and burn incense upon altars of bricks;

4 Who sit in tombs and lodge in caves, who eat swine's flesh and pollute their vessels with unclean carcasses; to break the law and to defile the holy covenant, that they may provoke the LORD.

5 Who say, Keep away, do not come near me; for I am sanctified. These men are a smoke in my anger, a fire that burns all the day.

6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence until I recompense them a double portion into their bosom.

7 Their sins and the sins of their fathers are well known, says the LORD, for they have burned incense upon the mountains and reproached me upon the hills; therefore I will measure their former works into their bosom.

8 Thus says the LORD: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says to another, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for my servant's sake, and I will not destroy them all.

9 And I will bring forth an offspring out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; my elect shall inherit it and my servants shall dwell there.

10 And Sharon shall be a fold for flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in for my people who have sought me.

11 But as for you who have forsaken the LORD and have forgotten his holy mountain, who prepare tables for fortune tellers and have poured out wine into bowls for them,

12 I will deliver you up to the sword, and all of you shall bow down to the slaughter, because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen; and you did evil in my presence, and did choose the thing wherein I do not delight.

13 Therefore thus says the LORD God: Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall weep;

14 Behold my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but you shall complain for sorrow of heart and for vexation of spirit.

15 And you shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen ones; for the LORD God shall slay you, and call his servants by another name;

16 So that he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from my presence.

17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered nor come into mind.

18 But my people shall be glad and rejoice for ever because I am creating; for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and I will rejoice in it.

19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of wailing.

20 There shall be no more in her a child who dies in infancy nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child shall die a hundred years old; but a sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.

21 They shall build houses and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They shall not build and others inhabit; they shall not plant and others eat; for like the days of trees are the days of my people, and my chosen ones shall eat the work of their hands.

23 They shall not labor in vain nor bring forth children for a curse; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, both they and their children with them.

24 And it shall come to pass that before they call I will answer them; and before they speak I will hear them.

25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together and the lion shall eat straw like the ox, and dust shall be the serpents' food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, says the LORD.

Chapter 65

Isaiah

Chapter 65

1 I am sought1875 of them that asked7592 not3808 for me; I am found4672 of them that sought1245 me not:3808 I said,559 Behold2009 me, behold2009 me, unto413 a nation1471 that was not3808 called7121 by my name.8034

1 I AM sought of those who did not ask for me; I am found of those who sought me not; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation that has never called my name.

2 I have spread out6566 my hands3027 all3605 the day3117 unto413 a rebellious5637 people,5971 which walketh1980 in a way1870 that was not3808 good,2896 after310 their own thoughts;4284

2 I have spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts,

3 A people5971 that provoketh me to anger3707 853 continually8548 to5921 my face;6440 that sacrificeth2076 in gardens,1593 and burneth incense6999 upon5921 altars of brick;3843

3 A people who provoke me to anger continually, who sacrifice in the gardens and burn incense upon altars of bricks;

4 Which remain3427 among the graves,6913 and lodge3885 in the monuments,5341 which eat398 swine's2386 flesh,1320 and broth4839 of abominable6292 things is in their vessels;3627

4 Who sit in tombs and lodge in caves, who eat swine's flesh and pollute their vessels with unclean carcasses; to break the law and to defile the holy covenant, that they may provoke the LORD.

5 Which say,559 Stand7126 by413 thyself, come not near5066 408 to me; for3588 I am holier6942 than thou. These428 are a smoke6227 in my nose,639 a fire784 that burneth3344 all3605 the day.3117

5 Who say, Keep away, do not come near me; for I am sanctified. These men are a smoke in my anger, a fire that burns all the day.

6 Behold,2009 it is written3789 before6440 me: I will not3808 keep silence,2814 but3588 518 will recompense,7999 even recompense7999 into5921 their bosom,2436

6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence until I recompense them a double portion into their bosom.

7 Your iniquities,5771 and the iniquities5771 of your fathers1 together,3162 saith559 the LORD,3068 which834 have burned incense6999 upon5921 the mountains,2022 and blasphemed2778 me upon5921 the hills:1389 therefore will I measure4058 their former7223 work6468 into413 their bosom.2436

7 Their sins and the sins of their fathers are well known, says the LORD, for they have burned incense upon the mountains and reproached me upon the hills; therefore I will measure their former works into their bosom.

8 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 As834 the new wine8492 is found4672 in the cluster,811 and one saith,559 Destroy7843 it not;408 for3588 a blessing1293 is in it: so3651 will I do6213 for my servants' sakes,4616 5650 that I may not1115 destroy7843 them all.3605

8 Thus says the LORD: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says to another, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for my servant's sake, and I will not destroy them all.

9 And I will bring forth3318 a seed2233 out of Jacob,4480 3290 and out of Judah4480 3063 an inheritor3423 of my mountains:2022 and mine elect972 shall inherit3423 it, and my servants5650 shall dwell7931 there.8033

9 And I will bring forth an offspring out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; my elect shall inherit it and my servants shall dwell there.

10 And Sharon8289 shall be1961 a fold5116 of flocks,6629 and the valley6010 of Achor5911 a place for the herds1241 to lie down in,7258 for my people5971 that834 have sought1875 me.

10 And Sharon shall be a fold for flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in for my people who have sought me.

11 But ye859 are they that forsake5800 the LORD,3068 that forget7913 853 my holy6944 mountain,2022 that prepare6186 a table7979 for that troop,1408 and that furnish4390 the drink offering4469 unto that number.4507

11 But as for you who have forsaken the LORD and have forgotten his holy mountain, who prepare tables for fortune tellers and have poured out wine into bowls for them,

12 Therefore will I number4487 you to the sword,2719 and ye shall all3605 bow down3766 to the slaughter:2874 because3282 when I called,7121 ye did not3808 answer;6030 when I spoke,1696 ye did not3808 hear;8085 but did6213 evil7451 before mine eyes,5869 and did choose977 that wherein834 I delighted2654 not.3808

12 I will deliver you up to the sword, and all of you shall bow down to the slaughter, because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen; and you did evil in my presence, and did choose the thing wherein I do not delight.

13 Therefore3651 thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD,3069 Behold,2009 my servants5650 shall eat,398 but ye859 shall be hungry:7456 behold,2009 my servants5650 shall drink,8354 but ye859 shall be thirsty:6770 behold,2009 my servants5650 shall rejoice,8055 but ye859 shall be ashamed: 954

13 Therefore thus says the LORD God: Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall weep;

14 Behold,2009 my servants5650 shall sing7442 for joy4480 2898 of heart,3820 but ye859 shall cry6817 for sorrow4480 3511 of heart,3820 and shall howl3213 for vexation4480 7667 of spirit.7307

14 Behold my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but you shall complain for sorrow of heart and for vexation of spirit.

15 And ye shall leave5117 your name8034 for a curse7621 unto my chosen:972 for the Lord136 GOD3069 shall slay4191 thee, and call7121 his servants5650 by another312 name: 8034

15 And you shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen ones; for the LORD God shall slay you, and call his servants by another name;

16 That he who834 blesseth himself1288 in the earth776 shall bless himself1288 in the God430 of truth;543 and he that sweareth7650 in the earth776 shall swear7650 by the God430 of truth;543 because3588 the former7223 troubles6869 are forgotten,7911 and because3588 they are hid5641 from mine eyes.4480 5869

16 So that he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from my presence.

17 For,3588 behold,2009 I create1254 new2319 heavens8064 and a new2319 earth:776 and the former7223 shall not3808 be remembered,2142 nor3808 come5927 into5921 mind.3820

17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered nor come into mind.

18 But3588 518 be ye glad7797 and rejoice1523 forever5704 5703 in that which834 I589 create:1254 for,3588 behold,2009 I create1254 853 Jerusalem3389 a rejoicing,1525 and her people5971 a joy.4885

18 But my people shall be glad and rejoice for ever because I am creating; for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and I will rejoice in it.

19 And I will rejoice1523 in Jerusalem,3389 and joy7797 in my people:5971 and the voice6963 of weeping1065 shall be no3808 more5750 heard8085 in her, nor the voice6963 of crying.2201

19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of wailing.

20 There shall be1961 no3808 more5750 thence4480 8033 an infant5764 of days,3117 nor an old man2205 that834 hath not3808 filled4390 853 his days:3117 for3588 the child5288 shall die4191 a hundred3967 years8141 old;1121 but the sinner2398 being a hundred3967 years8141 old1121 shall be accursed.7043

20 There shall be no more in her a child who dies in infancy nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child shall die a hundred years old; but a sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.

21 And they shall build1129 houses,1004 and inhabit3427 them; and they shall plant5193 vineyards,3754 and eat398 the fruit6529 of them.

21 They shall build houses and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They shall not3808 build,1129 and another312 inhabit;3427 they shall not3808 plant,5193 and another312 eat:398 for3588 as the days3117 of a tree6086 are the days3117 of my people,5971 and mine elect972 shall long enjoy1086 the work4639 of their hands.3027

22 They shall not build and others inhabit; they shall not plant and others eat; for like the days of trees are the days of my people, and my chosen ones shall eat the work of their hands.

23 They shall not3808 labor3021 in vain,7385 nor3808 bring forth3205 for trouble;928 for3588 they1992 are the seed2233 of the blessed1288 of the LORD,3068 and their offspring6631 with854 them.

23 They shall not labor in vain nor bring forth children for a curse; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, both they and their children with them.

24 And it shall come to pass,1961 that before2962 they call,7121 I589 will answer;6030 and while they1992 are yet5750 speaking,1696 I589 will hear.8085

24 And it shall come to pass that before they call I will answer them; and before they speak I will hear them.

25 The wolf2061 and the lamb2924 shall feed7462 together,259 and the lion738 shall eat398 straw8401 like the bullock:1241 and dust6083 shall be the serpent's5175 meat.3899 They shall not3808 hurt7489 nor3808 destroy7843 in all3605 my holy6944 mountain,2022 saith559 the LORD.3068

25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together and the lion shall eat straw like the ox, and dust shall be the serpents' food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, says the LORD.
