Isaiah 1:1
|
|
The vision of Isaiah
the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah
and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham,
Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:2 |
|
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for
the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have
rebelled against me. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:3 |
|
The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's
crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider. |
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:4 |
|
Ah sinful nation,
a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers,
children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the
LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone
away backward. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:5 |
|
Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will
revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:6 |
|
From the sole of the foot even unto the head
there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they
have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:7 |
|
Your country is desolate, your cities are burned
with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate,
as overthrown by strangers. |
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
| Isaiah 1:8 |
|
And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage
in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:9 |
|
Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a
very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like
unto Gomorrah. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:10 |
|
Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom;
give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:11 |
|
To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices
unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat
of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of
he goats. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:12 |
|
When ye come to appear before me, who hath required
this at your hand, to tread my courts? |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:13 |
|
Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an
abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I
cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:14 |
|
Your new moons and your appointed feasts my
soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:15 |
|
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will
hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your
hands are full of blood. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:16 |
|
Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil
of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:17 |
|
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the
oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:18 |
|
Come now, and let us reason together, saith
the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though
they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:19 |
|
If ye be willing and obedient,
ye shall eat the good of the land: |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:20 |
|
But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured
with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 1:21 |
|
How is the faithful city become an harlot!
it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:22 |
|
Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with
water: |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:23 |
|
Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of
thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the
fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:24 |
|
Therefore saith the LORD, the LORD of hosts,
the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge
me of mine enemies: |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:25 |
|
And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely
purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin: |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:26 |
|
And I will restore
thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward
thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:27 |
|
Zion shall
be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:28 |
|
And the destruction
of the transgressors and of the sinners shall
be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:29 |
|
For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which
ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:30 |
|
For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth,
and as a garden that hath no water. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 1:31 |
|
And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker
of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them. |
