Isaiah 48

1

Hearh8085h8798 ye this, O househ1004 of Jacobh3290, which are calledh7121h8737 by the nameh8034 of Israelh3478, and are come forthh3318h8804 out of the watersh4325 of Judahh3063, which swearh7650h8737 by the nameh8034 of the LORDh3068, and make mentionh2142h8686 of the Godh430 of Israelh3478, but not in truthh571, nor in righteousnessh6666.

2

For they callh7121h8738 themselves of the holyh6944 cityh5892, and stayh5564h8738 themselves upon the Godh430 of Israelh3478; The LORDh3068 of hostsh6635 is his nameh8034.

3

I have declaredh5046h8689 the former thingsh7223 from the beginningh227; and they went forthh3318h8804 out of my mouthh6310, and I shewedh8085h8686 them; I didh6213h8804 them suddenlyh6597, and they came to passh935h8799.

4

Because I knewh1847 that thou art obstinateh7186, and thy neckh6203 is an ironh1270 sinewh1517, and thy browh4696 brassh5154; obstinate: Heb. hard

5

I have even from the beginningh227 declaredh5046h8686 it to thee; before it came to passh935h8799 I shewedh8085h8689 it thee: lest thou shouldest sayh559h8799, Mine idolh6090 hath doneh6213h8804 them, and my graven imageh6459, and my molten imageh5262, hath commandedh6680h8765 them.

6

Thou hast heardh8085h8804, seeh2372h8798 all this; and will not ye declareh5046h8686 it ? I have shewedh8085h8689 thee new thingsh2319 from this timeh6258, even hidden thingsh5341h8803, and thou didst not knowh3045h8804 them.

7

They are createdh1254h8738 now, and not from the beginning; even beforeh6440 the dayh3117 when thou heardesth8085h8804 them not; lest thou shouldest sayh559h8799, Behold, I knewh3045h8804 them.

8

Yea, thou heardesth8085h8804 not; yea, thou knewesth3045h8804 not; yea, from that time that thine earh241 was not openedh6605h8765: for I knewh3045h8804 that thou wouldest deal veryh898h8800 treacherouslyh898h8799, and wast calledh7121h8795 a transgressorh6586h8802 from the wombh990.

9

For my name'sh8034 sake will I deferh748h8686 mine angerh639, and for my praiseh8416 will I refrainh2413h8799 for thee, that I cut thee not offh3772h8687.

10

Behold, I have refinedh6884h8804 thee, but not with silverh3701; I have chosenh977h8804 thee in the furnaceh3564 of afflictionh6040. with...: or, for silver

11

For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I doh6213h8799 it : for how should my name be pollutedh2490h8735? and I will not giveh5414h8799 my gloryh3519 unto anotherh312.

12

Hearkenh8085h8798 unto me, O Jacobh3290 and Israelh3478, my calledh7121h8794; I am he; I am the firsth7223, I also am the lasth314.

13

Mine handh3027 also hath laid the foundationh3245h8804 of the earthh776, and my right handh3225 hath spannedh2946h8765 the heavensh8064: when I callh7121h8802 unto them, they stand uph5975h8799 togetherh3162. my...: or, the palm of my right hand hath spread out

14

All ye, assembleh6908h8734 yourselves, and hearh8085h8798; which among them hath declaredh5046h8689 these things ? The LORDh3068 hath lovedh157h8804 him: he will doh6213h8799 his pleasureh2656 on Babylonh894, and his armh2220 shall be on the Chaldeansh3778.

15

I, even I, have spokenh1696h8765; yea, I have calledh7121h8804 him: I have broughth935h8689 him, and he shall make his wayh1870 prosperoush6743h8689.

16

Comeh7126h8798 ye nearh7126h8798 unto me, hearh8085h8798 ye this; I have not spokenh1696h8765 in secreth5643 from the beginningh7218; from the timeh6256 that it was, there am I: and now the Lordh136 GODh3069, and his Spirith7307, hath senth7971h8804 me.

17

Thus saithh559h8804 the LORDh3068, thy Redeemerh1350h8802, the Holy Oneh6918 of Israelh3478; I am the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 which teachethh3925h8764 thee to profith3276h8687, which leadethh1869h8688 thee by the wayh1870 that thou shouldest goh3212h8799.

18

O thath3863 thou hadst hearkenedh7181h8689 to my commandmentsh4687! then had thy peaceh7965 been as a riverh5104, and thy righteousnessh6666 as the wavesh1530 of the seah3220:

19

Thy seedh2233 also had been as the sandh2344, and the offspringh6631 of thy bowelsh4578 like the gravelh4579 thereof; his nameh8034 should not have been cut offh3772h8735 nor destroyedh8045h8735 from beforeh6440 me.

20

Go ye forthh3318h8798 of Babylonh894, fleeh1272h8798 ye from the Chaldeansh3778, with a voiceh6963 of singingh7440 declareh5046h8685 ye, tellh8085h8685 this, utterh3318h8685 it even to the endh7097 of the earthh776; sayh559h8798 ye, The LORDh3068 hath redeemedh1350h8804 his servanth5650 Jacobh3290.

21

And they thirstedh6770h8804 not when he ledh3212h8689 them through the desertsh2723: he caused the watersh4325 to flowh5140h8689 out of the rockh6697 for them: he claveh1234h8799 the rockh6697 also, and the watersh4325 gushed outh2100h8799.

22

There is no peaceh7965, saithh559h8804 the LORDh3068, unto the wickedh7563.
