NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Isaiah 1

Rebellion of God's People

1

The visionh2377 of Isaiahh3470b the sonh1121 of Amozh531 concerningh5921  aJudahh3063 and Jerusalemh3389, whichh834 he sawh2372 during the  1reignsh3117 of  bUzziahh5818,  cJothamh3147,  dAhazh271 and  eHezekiahh2396, kingsh4428 of Judahh3063.

2

 aListenh8085, O heavensh8064, and hearh238, O  bearthh776; For the LORDh3068 speaksh1696, " cSonsh1121 I have rearedh1431 and broughth7311 up, But they have  drevoltedh6586 against Me.

3

"An oxh7794 knowsh3045 its ownerh7069, And a donkeyh2543 its master'sh1167 mangerh18, But Israelh3478  adoes not knowh3045, My peopleh5971a  bdo not understandh995."

4

Alash1945, sinfulh2398 nationh1471, Peopleh5971a weighedh3515 downh3515 with iniquityh5771,  1 aOffspringh2233 of evildoersh7489a, Sonsh1121 who  bacth7843 corruptlyh7843! They have  cabandonedh5800a the LORDh3068, They have  ddespisedh5006 the Holyh6918 Oneh6918 of Israelh3478, They have turnedh2114a awayh2114a  2from Him.

5

Whereh5921h4100 will you be strickenh5221 againh5750, As you  acontinueh3254 in your rebellionh5627? The wholeh3605 headh7218 is  bsickh2483 And the wholeh3605 hearth3824 is fainth1742.

6

 aFrom the soleh3709 of the footh7272 even to the headh7218 Thereh369 is  bnothingh369 soundh4974 in it, Only bruisesh6482, weltsh2250 and rawh2961 woundsh4347,  cNot pressedh2115 out or bandagedh2280, Norh3808 softenedh7401 with oilh8081.

7

Your  alandh776 is desolateh8077, Your citiesh5892b are burnedh8313 with fireh784, Your fieldsh127--strangersh2114a are devouringh398 them in your presenceh5048; It is desolationh8077, as overthrownh4114 by strangersh2114a.

8

The daughterh1323 of Zionh6726 is lefth3498 like a shelterh5521 in a vineyardh3754, Like a watchman'sh4412 huth4412 in a cucumberh4750 fieldh4750, like a besiegedh5341 cityh5892b.

9

 aUnlessh3884a the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635 Had lefth3498 us a fewh4592  bsurvivorsh8300, We would be like  cSodomh5467, We would be likeh1819 Gomorrahh6017.

God Has Had Enough

10

Hearh8085  athe wordh1697 of the LORDh3068, You rulersh7101 of  bSodomh5467; Giveh238 earh238 to the instructionh8451 of our Godh430, You peopleh5971a of Gomorrahh6017.

11

aWhath4100 are your multipliedh7230 sacrificesh2077 to Me?" Saysh559 the LORDh3068. "I  1have hadh7646 enoughh7646 of burnth5930a offeringsh5930a of ramsh352a And the fath2459 of fedh4806 cattleh4806; And I takeh2654a noh3808 pleasureh2654a in the bloodh1818 of bullsh6499, lambsh3532 or goatsh6260.

12

"Whenh3588 you comeh935  ato appearh7200 beforeh6440 Me, Whoh4310 requiresh1245  1of you thish384 tramplingh7429 of My courtsh2691a?

13

"Bringh935 your worthlessh7723 offeringsh4503 noh3808 longerh3254,  aIncenseh7004 is an abominationh8441 to Me.  bNewh2320 moonh2320 and sabbathh7676, the  ccallingh7121 of assembliesh4744-- I cannoth3201h3808  dendureh3201 iniquityh205 and the solemnh6116 assemblyh6116.

14

"I hateh8130 your newh2320 moonh2320 festivals and your  aappointedh4150 feastsh4150, They have becomeh1961 a burdenh2960 to Me; I am  bwearyh3811 of bearingh5375 them.

15

"So when you  aspreadh6566 out your handsh3709 in prayer,  bI will hideh5956 My eyesh5869 from you; Yesh1571, evenh1571 thoughh3588 you  cmultiplyh7235a prayersh8605, I will not listenh8085.  dYour handsh3027 are  1coveredh4390 with bloodh1818.

16

aWashh7364 yourselves,  bmakeh2135 yourselves cleanh2135;  cRemoveh5493 the evilh7455 of your deedsh4611 from My sighth5048h5869.  dCeaseh2308 to do evilh7489a,

17

Learnh3925 to doh3190 goodh3190;  aSeekh1875 justiceh4941, Reproveh833 the ruthlessh2541,  1 bDefendh8199 the orphanh3490, Pleadh7378 for the widowh490.

"Let Us Reason"

18

"Comeh1980 nowh4994, and  alet us reasonh3198 together," Saysh559 the LORDh3068, " bThoughh518 your sinsh2399 are as scarleth8144, They will be as whiteh3835a as snowh7950; Thoughh518 they are redh119 like crimsonh8438, They will be like woolh6785.

19

aIfh518 you consenth14 and obeyh8085, You will  beath398 the besth2898 of the landh776;

20

"But ifh518 you refuseh3985 and rebelh4784, You will be  adevouredh398 by the swordh2719." Trulyh3588,  bthe mouthh6310 of the LORDh3068 has spokenh1696.

Zion Corrupted, to be Redeemed

21

Howh351a the faithfulh539 cityh7151 has becomeh1961 a  aharloth2181, She who was fullh4392 of justiceh4941! Righteousnessh6664 once lodgedh3885a in her, But nowh6258 murderersh7523.

22

Your silverh3701 has becomeh1961 drossh5509, Your drinkh5435 dilutedh4107 with waterh4325.

23

Your  arulersh8269 are rebelsh5637 And companionsh2270 of thievesh1590; Everyoneh3605  blovesh157 a bribeh7810 And chasesh7291 after rewardsh8021. They  cdo not  1defendh8199 the  2orphanh3490, Norh3808 does the widow'sh490 pleah7379 comeh935 beforeh413 them.

24

Thereforeh3651 the Lordh136  1GODh3068 of hostsh6635, The  aMightyh46 Oneh46 of Israelh3478, declaresh5002, "Ahh1945, I will be relievedh5162 of My adversariesh6862c And  bavengeh5358 Myself on My foesh340.

25

"I will also turnh7725 My handh3027 againsth5921 you, And will  asmelth6884 away your drossh5509 as with lyeh1253a And will removeh5493 allh3605 your alloyh913.

26

"Then I will restoreh7725 your  ajudgesh8199 as at the firsth7223, And your counselorsh3289 as at the beginningh8462; Afterh310 that you will be calledh7121 the  bcityh5892b of righteousnessh6664, A faithfulh539 cityh7151."

27

Zionh6726 will be  aredeemedh6299 with justiceh4941 And her  1repentanth7725 ones with righteousnessh6666.

28

But  1transgressorsh6586 and sinnersh2400 will be  acrushedh7667 togetherh3164a, And those who forsakeh5800a the LORDh3068 will comeh3615 to an endh3615.

29

Surelyh3588  1you will be ashamedh954 of the  2 aoaksh352d whichh834 you have desiredh2530, And you will be embarrassedh2659 at the  bgardensh1593 whichh834 you have chosenh977.

30

For you will be like an  1oakh424 whose  aleafh5929 fadesh5034b awayh5034b Or as a gardenh1593 that hash369 noh369 waterh4325.

31

The strongh2634 manh2634 will becomeh1961 tinderh5296, His workh6467 also a sparkh5213. Thus they shall bothh8147  aburnh1197a togetherh3164a And thereh369 will be  bnoneh369 to quenchh3518 them.
