Isaiah 13:1-21

13:1

The burden
<04853>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

which Isaiah
<03470>

the son
<01121>

of Amoz
<0531>

did see
<02372> (8804)_.

13:2

Lift ye up
<05375> (8798)

a banner
<05251>

upon the high
<08192> (8737)

mountain
<02022>_,

exalt
<07311> (8685)

the voice
<06963>

unto them, shake
<05130> (8685)

the hand
<03027>_,

that they may go
<0935> (8799)

into the gates
<06607>

of the nobles
<05081>_.

13:3

I have commanded
<06680> (8765)

my sanctified ones
<06942> (8794)_,

I have also called
<07121> (8804)

my mighty ones
<01368>

for mine anger
<0639>_,

[even] them that rejoice
<05947>

in my highness
<01346>_.

13:4

The noise
<06963>

of a multitude
<01995>

in the mountains
<02022>_,

like as
<01823>

of a great
<07227>

people
<05971>_;

a tumultuous
<07588>

noise
<06963>

of the kingdoms
<04467>

of nations
<01471>

gathered together
<0622> (8737)_:

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

mustereth
<06485> (8764)

the host
<06635>

of the battle
<04421>_.

{like...: Heb. the likeness of}

13:5

They come
<0935> (8802)

from a far
<04801>

country
<0776>_,

from the end
<07097>

of heaven
<08064>_,

[even] the LORD
<03068>_,

and the weapons
<03627>

of his indignation
<02195>_,

to destroy
<02254> (8763)

the whole land
<0776>_.

13:6

Howl
<03213> (8685)

ye; for the day
<03117>

of the LORD
<03068>

[is] at hand
<07138>_;

it shall come
<0935> (8799)

as a destruction
<07701>

from the Almighty
<07706>_.

13:7

Therefore shall all hands
<03027>

be faint
<07503> (8799)_,

and every man's
<0582>

heart
<03824>

shall melt
<04549> (8735)_:

{be faint: or, fall down}

13:8

And they shall be afraid
<0926> (8738)_:

pangs
<06735>

and sorrows
<02256>

shall take hold
<0270> (8799)

of them; they shall be in pain
<02342> (8799)

as a woman that travaileth
<03205> (8802)_:

they shall be amazed
<08539> (8799)

one
<0376>

at another
<07453>_;

their faces
<06440>

[shall be as] flames
<03851>_.

{be amazed: Heb. wonder} {one...: Heb. every man at his neighbour} {flames: Heb. faces of the flames}

13:9

Behold, the day
<03117>

of the LORD
<03068>

cometh
<0935> (8804)_,

cruel
<0394>

both with wrath
<05678>

and fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>_,

to lay
<07760> (8800)

the land
<0776>

desolate
<08047>_:

and he shall destroy
<08045> (8686)

the sinners
<02400>

thereof out of it.

13:10

For the stars
<03556>

of heaven
<08064>

and the constellations
<03685>

thereof shall not give
<01984> (8686)

their light
<0216>_:

the sun
<08121>

shall be darkened
<02821> (8804)

in his going forth
<03318> (8800)_,

and the moon
<03394>

shall not cause her light
<0216>

to shine
<05050> (8686)_.

13:11

And I will punish
<06485> (8804)

the world
<08398>

for [their] evil
<07451>_,

and the wicked
<07563>

for their iniquity
<05771>_;

and I will cause the arrogancy
<01347>

of the proud
<02086>

to cease
<07673> (8689)_,

and will lay low
<08213> (8686)

the haughtiness
<01346>

of the terrible
<06184>_.

13:12

I will make a man
<0582>

more precious
<03365> (8686)

than fine gold
<06337>_;

even a man
<0120>

than the golden wedge
<03800>

of Ophir
<0211>_.

13:13

Therefore I will shake
<07264> (8686)

the heavens
<08064>_,

and the earth
<0776>

shall remove
<07493> (8799)

out of her place
<04725>_,

in the wrath
<05678>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

and in the day
<03117>

of his fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>_.

13:14

And it shall be as the chased
<05080> (8716)

roe
<06643>_,

and as a sheep
<06629>

that no man taketh up
<06908> (8764)_:

they shall every man
<0376>

turn
<06437> (8799)

to his own people
<05971>_,

and flee
<05127> (8799)

every one
<0376>

into his own land
<0776>_.

13:15

Every one that is found
<04672> (8737)

shall be thrust through
<01856> (8735)_;

and every one that is joined
<05595> (8737)

[unto them] shall fall
<05307> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_.

13:16

Their children
<05768>

also shall be dashed to pieces
<07376> (8792)

before their eyes
<05869>_;

their houses
<01004>

shall be spoiled
<08155> (8735)_,

and their wives
<0802>

ravished
<07901> (8735) (8675) <07693> (8735)_.

13:17

Behold, I will stir up
<05782> (8688)

the Medes
<04074>

against them, which shall not regard
<02803> (8799)

silver
<03701>_;

and [as for] gold
<02091>_,

they shall not delight
<02654> (8799)

in it.

13:18

[Their] bows
<07198>

also shall dash
<07376> (0)

the young men
<05288>

to pieces
<07376> (8762)_;

and they shall have no pity
<07355> (8762)

on the fruit
<06529>

of the womb
<0990>_;

their eye
<05869>

shall not spare
<02347> (8799)

children
<01121>_.

13:19

And Babylon
<0894>_,

the glory
<06643>

of kingdoms
<04467>_,

the beauty
<08597>

of the Chaldees
<03778>_'

excellency
<01347>_,

shall be as when God
<0430>

overthrew
<04114>

Sodom
<05467>

and Gomorrah
<06017>_.

{as...: Heb. as the overthrowing}

13:20

It shall never
<05331>

be inhabited
<03427> (8799)_,

neither shall it be dwelt
<07931> (8799)

in from generation
<01755>

to generation
<01755>_:

neither shall the Arabian
<06163>

pitch tent
<0167> (8762)

there; neither shall the shepherds
<07462> (8802)

make their fold
<07257> (8686)

there.

13:21

But wild beasts of the desert
<06728>

shall lie
<07257> (8804)

there; and their houses
<01004>

shall be full
<04390> (8804)

of doleful creatures
<0255>_;

and owls
<01323> <03284>

shall dwell
<07931> (8804)

there, and satyrs
<08163>

shall dance
<07540> (8762)

there. {wild...: Heb. Ziim} {doleful...: Heb. Ochim} {owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
