Isaiah 17:1--18:7

The burden
<04853>
of Damascus
<01834>_.
Behold, Damascus
<01834>
is taken away
<05493> (8716)
from [being] a city
<05892>_,
and it shall be a ruinous
<04654>
heap
<04596>_.
The cities
<05892>
of Aroer
<06177>
[are] forsaken
<05800> (8803)_:
they shall be for flocks
<05739>_,
which shall lie down
<07257> (8804)_,
and none shall make [them] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.
The fortress
<04013>
also shall cease
<07673> (8738)
from Ephraim
<0669>_,
and the kingdom
<04467>
from Damascus
<01834>_,
and the remnant
<07605>
of Syria
<0758>_:
they shall be as the glory
<03519>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
And in that day
<03117>
it shall come to pass, [that] the glory
<03519>
of Jacob
<03290>
shall be made thin
<01809> (8735)_,
and the fatness
<04924>
of his flesh
<01320>
shall wax lean
<07329> (8735)_.
And it shall be as when the harvestman
<07105>
gathereth
<0622> (8800)
the corn
<07054>_,
and reapeth
<07114> (8799)
the ears
<07641>
with his arm
<02220>_;
and it shall be as he that gathereth
<03950> (8764)
ears
<07641>
in the valley
<06010>
of Rephaim
<07497>_.
Yet gleaning grapes
<05955>
shall be left
<07604> (8738)
in it, as the shaking
<05363>
of an olive tree
<02132>_,
two
<08147>
[or] three
<07969>
berries
<01620>
in the top
<07218>
of the uppermost bough
<0534>_,
four
<0702>
[or] five
<02568>
in the outmost fruitful
<06509> (8802)
branches
<05585>
thereof, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
At that day
<03117>
shall a man
<0120>
look
<08159> (8799)
to his Maker
<06213> (8802)_,
and his eyes
<05869>
shall have respect
<07200> (8799)
to the Holy
<06918>
One of Israel
<03478>_.
And he shall not look
<08159> (8799)
to the altars
<04196>_,
the work
<04639>
of his hands
<03027>_,
neither shall respect
<07200> (8799)
[that] which his fingers
<0676>
have made
<06213> (8804)_,
either the groves
<0842>_,
or the images
<02553>_.
{images: or, sun images}
In that day
<03117>
shall his strong
<04581>
cities
<05892>
be as a forsaken
<05800> (8803)
bough
<02793>_,
and an uppermost branch
<0534>_,
which they left
<05800> (8804)
because
<06440>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
and there shall be desolation
<08077>_.
Because thou hast forgotten
<07911> (8804)
the God
<0430>
of thy salvation
<03468>_,
and hast not been mindful
<02142> (8804)
of the rock
<06697>
of thy strength
<04581>_,
therefore shalt thou plant
<05193> (8799)
pleasant
<05282>
plants
<05194>_,
and shalt set
<02232> (8799)
it with strange
<02114> (8801)
slips
<02156>_:
In the day
<03117>
shalt thou make thy plant
<05194>
to grow
<07735> (8770)_,
and in the morning
<01242>
shalt thou make thy seed
<02233>
to flourish
<06524> (8686)_:
[but] the harvest
<07105>
[shall be] a heap
<05067>
in the day
<03117>
of grief
<02470> (8737)
and of desperate
<0605> (8803)
sorrow
<03511>_.
{a heap...: or, removed in the day of inheritance, and there shall be deadly sorrow}
Woe
<01945>
to the multitude
<01995>
of many
<07227>
people
<05971>_,
[which] make a noise
<01993> (8799)
like the noise
<01993> (8800)
of the seas
<03220>_;
and to the rushing
<07588>
of nations
<03816>_,
[that] make a rushing like the rushing
<07582> (8735)
of mighty
<03524>
waters
<04325>_!
{multitude: or, noise} {mighty: or, many}
The nations
<03816>
shall rush
<07582> (8735)
like the rushing
<07588>
of many
<07227>
waters
<04325>_:
but [God] shall rebuke
<01605> (8804)
them, and they shall flee
<05127> (8804)
far off
<04801>_,
and shall be chased
<07291> (8795)
as the chaff
<04671>
of the mountains
<02022>
before
<06440>
the wind
<07307>_,
and like a rolling thing
<01534>
before
<06440>
the whirlwind
<05492>_.
{a rolling...: or, thistledown}
And behold at eveningtide
<06256> <06153>
trouble
<01091>_;
[and] before the morning
<01242>
he [is] not. This [is] the portion
<02506>
of them that spoil
<08154> (8802)
us, and the lot
<01486>
of them that rob
<0962> (8802)
us.
Woe
<01945>
to the land
<0776>
shadowing
<06767>
with wings
<03671>_,
which [is] beyond
<05676>
the rivers
<05104>
of Ethiopia
<03568>_:
That sendeth
<07971> (8802)
ambassadors
<06735>
by the sea
<03220>_,
even in vessels
<03627>
of bulrushes
<01573>
upon
<06440>
the waters
<04325>_,
[saying], Go
<03212> (8798)_,
ye swift
<07031>
messengers
<04397>_,
to a nation
<01471>
scattered
<04900> (8794)
and peeled
<04178> (8794)_,
to a people
<05971>
terrible
<03372> (8737)
from their beginning hitherto
<01973>_;
a nation
<01471>
meted out
<06978>
and trodden down
<04001>_,
whose land
<0776>
the rivers
<05104>
have spoiled
<0958> (8804)_!
{scattered...: or, outspread and polished} {meted...: or, that meteth out and treadeth down: Heb. of line, line, and treading under foot} {have...: or, despise}
All ye inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the world
<08398>_,
and dwellers
<07931> (8802)
on the earth
<0776>_,
see
<07200> (8799)
ye, when he lifteth up
<05375> (8800)
an ensign
<05251>
on the mountains
<02022>_;
and when he bloweth
<08628> (8800)
a trumpet
<07782>_,
hear
<08085> (8799)
ye.
For so
<03541>
the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto me, I will take my rest
<08252> (8799)_,
and I will consider
<05027> (8686)
in my dwelling place
<04349>
like a clear
<06703>
heat
<02527>
upon herbs
<0216>_,
[and] like a cloud
<05645>
of dew
<02919>
in the heat
<02527>
of harvest
<07105>_.
{consider...: or, regard my set dwelling} {upon...: or, after rain}
For afore
<06440>
the harvest
<07105>_,
when the bud
<06525>
is perfect
<08552> (8800)_,
and the sour grape
<01155>
is ripening
<01580> (8802)
in the flower
<05328>_,
he shall both cut off
<03772> (8804)
the sprigs
<02150>
with pruning hooks
<04211>_,
and take away
<05493> (8689)
[and] cut down
<08456> (8689)
the branches
<05189>_.
They shall be left
<05800> (8735)
together
<03162>
unto the fowls
<05861>
of the mountains
<02022>_,
and to the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_:
and the fowls
<05861>
shall summer
<06972> (8804)
upon them, and all the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>
shall winter
<02778> (8799)
upon them.
In that time
<06256>
shall the present
<07862>
be brought
<02986> (8714)
unto the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
of a people
<05971>
scattered
<04900> (8794)
and peeled
<04178> (8794)_,
and from a people
<05971>
terrible
<03372> (8737)
from their beginning hitherto
<01973>_;
a nation
<01471>
meted out
<06978>
and trodden under foot
<04001>_,
whose land
<0776>
the rivers
<05104>
have spoiled
<0958> (8804)_,
to the place
<04725>
of the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the mount
<02022>
Zion
<06726>_.
{scattered...: or, outspread and polished}
