Isaiah 24:1--27:1

24:1

Behold, the LORD
<03068>

maketh the earth
<0776>

empty
<01238> (8802)_,

and maketh it waste
<01110> (8802)_,

and turneth
<05753> (8765)

it upside down
<06440>_,

and scattereth abroad
<06327> (8689)

the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

thereof. {turneth...: Heb. perverteth the face thereof}

24:2

And it shall be, as with the people
<05971>_,

so with the priest
<03548>_;

as with the servant
<05650>_,

so with his master
<0113>_;

as with the maid
<08198>_,

so with her mistress
<01404>_;

as with the buyer
<07069> (8802)_,

so with the seller
<04376> (8802)_;

as with the lender
<03867> (8688)_,

so with the borrower
<03867> (8801)_;

as with the taker of usury
<05383> (8802)_,

so
<0834>

with the giver of usury
<05378> (8801)

to him. {priest: or, prince}

24:3

The land
<0776>

shall be utterly
<01238> (8736)

emptied
<01238> (8735)_,

and utterly
<0962> (8736)

spoiled
<0962> (8735)_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

this word
<01697>_.

24:4

The earth
<0776>

mourneth
<056> (8804)

[and] fadeth away
<05034> (8804)_,

the world
<08398>

languisheth
<0535> (8797)

[and] fadeth away
<05034> (8804)_,

the haughty
<04791>

people
<05971>

of the earth
<0776>

do languish
<0535> (8797)_.

{the haughty...: Heb. the height of the people}

24:5

The earth
<0776>

also is defiled
<02610> (8804)

under the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

thereof; because they have transgressed
<05674> (8804)

the laws
<08451>_,

changed
<02498> (8804)

the ordinance
<02706>_,

broken
<06565> (8689)

the everlasting
<05769>

covenant
<01285>_.

24:6

Therefore hath the curse
<0423>

devoured
<0398> (8804)

the earth
<0776>_,

and they that dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein are desolate
<0816> (8799)_:

therefore the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the earth
<0776>

are burned
<02787> (8804)_,

and few
<04213>

men
<0582>

left
<07604> (8738)_.

24:7

The new wine
<08492>

mourneth
<056> (8804)_,

the vine
<01612>

languisheth
<0535> (8797)_,

all the merryhearted
<08056> <03820>

do sigh
<0584> (8738)_.

24:8

The mirth
<04885>

of tabrets
<08596>

ceaseth
<07673> (8804)_,

the noise
<07588>

of them that rejoice
<05947>

endeth
<02308> (8804)_,

the joy
<04885>

of the harp
<03658>

ceaseth
<07673> (8804)_.

24:9

They shall not drink
<08354> (8799)

wine
<03196>

with a song
<07892>_;

strong drink
<07941>

shall be bitter
<04843> (8799)

to them that drink
<08354> (8802)

it.

24:10

The city
<07151>

of confusion
<08414>

is broken down
<07665> (8738)_:

every house
<01004>

is shut up
<05462> (8795)_,

that no man may come in
<0935> (8800)_.

24:11

[There is] a crying
<06682>

for wine
<03196>

in the streets
<02351>_;

all joy
<08057>

is darkened
<06150> (8804)_,

the mirth
<04885>

of the land
<0776>

is gone
<01540> (8804)_.

24:12

In the city
<05892>

is left
<07604> (8738)

desolation
<08047>_,

and the gate
<08179>

is smitten
<03807> (8714)

with destruction
<07591>_.

24:13

When thus it shall be in the midst
<07130>

of the land
<0776>

among
<08432>

the people
<05971>_,

[there shall be] as the shaking
<05363>

of an olive tree
<02132>_,

[and] as the gleaning grapes
<05955>

when the vintage
<01210>

is done
<03615> (8804)_.

24:14

They shall lift up
<05375> (8799)

their voice
<06963>_,

they shall sing
<07442> (8799)

for the majesty
<01347>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

they shall cry aloud
<06670> (8804)

from the sea
<03220>_.

24:15

Wherefore glorify
<03513> (8761)

ye the LORD
<03068>

in the fires
<0217>_,

[even] the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

in the isles
<0339>

of the sea
<03220>_.

{fires: or, valleys}

24:16

From the uttermost part
<03671>

of the earth
<0776>

have we heard
<08085> (8804)

songs
<02158>_,

[even] glory
<06643>

to the righteous
<06662>_.

But I said
<0559> (8799)_,

My leanness
<07334>_,

my leanness
<07334>_,

woe
<0188>

unto me! the treacherous dealers
<0898> (8802)

have dealt treacherously
<0898> (8804)_;

yea, the treacherous dealers
<0898> (8802)

have dealt very
<0899>

treacherously
<0898> (8804)_.

{uttermost...: Heb. wing} {My leanness: Heb. Leanness to me, or, My secret to me}

24:17

Fear
<06343>_,

and the pit
<06354>_,

and the snare
<06341>_,

[are] upon thee, O inhabitant
<03427> (8802)

of the earth
<0776>_.

24:18

And it shall come to pass, [that] he who fleeth
<05127> (8801)

from the noise
<06963>

of the fear
<06343>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

into the pit
<06354>_;

and he that cometh up
<05927> (8802)

out of the midst
<08432>

of the pit
<06354>

shall be taken
<03920> (8735)

in the snare
<06341>_:

for the windows
<0699>

from on high
<04791>

are open
<06605> (8738)_,

and the foundations
<04146>

of the earth
<0776>

do shake
<07493> (8799)_.

24:19

The earth
<0776>

is utterly
<07489> (8800)

broken down
<07489> (8712)_,

the earth
<0776>

is clean
<06565> (8800)

dissolved
<06565> (8707)_,

the earth
<0776>

is moved
<04131> (8694)

exceedingly
<04131> (8800)_.

24:20

The earth
<0776>

shall reel
<05128> (8799)

to and fro
<05128> (8800)

like a drunkard
<07910>_,

and shall be removed
<05110> (8712)

like a cottage
<04412>_;

and the transgression
<06588>

thereof shall be heavy
<03513> (8804)

upon it; and it shall fall
<05307> (8804)_,

and not rise
<06965> (8800)

again
<03254> (8686)_.

24:21

And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,

[that] the LORD
<03068>

shall punish
<06485> (8799)

the host
<06635>

of the high ones
<04791>

[that are] on high
<04791>_,

and the kings
<04428>

of the earth
<0127>

upon the earth
<0127>_.

{punish: Heb. visit upon}

24:22

And they shall be gathered together
<0622> (8795)_,

[as] prisoners
<0616>

are gathered
<0626>

in the pit
<0953>_,

and shall be shut up
<05462> (8795)

in the prison
<04525>_,

and after many
<07230>

days
<03117>

shall they be visited
<06485> (8735)_.

{as prisoners...: Heb. with the gathering of prisoners} {pit: or, dungeon} {visited: or, found wanting}

24:23

Then the moon
<03842>

shall be confounded
<02659> (8804)_,

and the sun
<02535>

ashamed
<0954> (8804)_,

when the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

shall reign
<04427> (8804)

in mount
<02022>

Zion
<06726>_,

and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and before his ancients
<02205>

gloriously
<03519>_.

{before...: or, there shall be glory before his ancients}

25:1

O LORD
<03068>_,

thou [art] my God
<0430>_;

I will exalt
<07311> (8787)

thee, I will praise
<03034> (8686)

thy name
<08034>_;

for thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

wonderful
<06382>

[things; thy] counsels
<06098>

of old
<07350>

[are] faithfulness
<0530>

[and] truth
<0544>_.

25:2

For thou hast made
<07760> (8804)

of a city
<05892>

an heap
<01530>_;

[of] a defenced
<01219> (8803)

city
<07151>

a ruin
<04654>_:

a palace
<0759>

of strangers
<02114> (8801)

to be no city
<05892>_;

it shall never
<05769>

be built
<01129> (8735)_.

25:3

Therefore shall the strong
<05794>

people
<05971>

glorify
<03513> (8762)

thee, the city
<07151>

of the terrible
<06184>

nations
<01471>

shall fear
<03372> (8799)

thee.

25:4

For thou hast been a strength
<04581>

to the poor
<01800>_,

a strength
<04581>

to the needy
<034>

in his distress
<06862>_,

a refuge
<04268>

from the storm
<02230>_,

a shadow
<06738>

from the heat
<02721>_,

when the blast
<07307>

of the terrible ones
<06184>

[is] as a storm
<02230>

[against] the wall
<07023>_.

25:5

Thou shalt bring down
<03665> (8686)

the noise
<07588>

of strangers
<02114> (8801)_,

as the heat
<02721>

in a dry place
<06724>_;

[even] the heat
<02721>

with the shadow
<06738>

of a cloud
<05645>_:

the branch
<02159>

of the terrible ones
<06184>

shall be brought low
<06030> (8799)_.

25:6

And in this mountain
<02022>

shall the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

make
<06213> (8804)

unto all people
<05971>

a feast
<04960>

of fat things
<08081>_,

a feast
<04960>

of wines on the lees
<08105>_,

of fat things
<08081>

full of marrow
<04229> (8794)_,

of wines on the lees
<08105>

well refined
<02212> (8794)_.

25:7

And he will destroy
<01104> (8765)

in this mountain
<02022>

the face
<06440>

of the covering
<03875>

cast over
<03874> (8802)

all people
<05971>_,

and the vail
<04541>

that is spread
<05259> (8803)

over all nations
<01471>_.

{destroy: Heb. swallow up} {cast: Heb. covered}

25:8

He will swallow up
<01104> (8765)

death
<04194>

in victory
<05331>_;

and the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

will wipe away
<04229> (8804)

tears
<01832>

from off all faces
<06440>_;

and the rebuke
<02781>

of his people
<05971>

shall he take away
<05493> (8686)

from off all the earth
<0776>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

[it].

25:9

And it shall be said
<0559> (8804)

in that day
<03117>_,

Lo, this [is] our God
<0430>_;

we have waited
<06960> (8765)

for him, and he will save
<03467> (8686)

us: this [is] the LORD
<03068>_;

we have waited
<06960> (8765)

for him, we will be glad
<01523> (8799)

and rejoice
<08055> (8799)

in his salvation
<03444>_.

25:10

For in this mountain
<02022>

shall the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>

rest
<05117> (8799)_,

and Moab
<04124>

shall be trodden down
<01758> (8736)

under him, even as straw
<04963>

is trodden down
<01758> (8738)

for the dunghill
<01119> <04087> (8675) <04325>_.

{trodden down under: or, threshed, etc} {trodden down for...: or, threshed in Madmenah}

25:11

And he shall spread forth
<06566> (8765)

his hands
<03027>

in the midst
<07130>

of them, as he that swimmeth
<07811> (8802)

spreadeth forth
<06566> (8762)

[his hands] to swim
<07811> (8800)_:

and he shall bring down
<08213> (8689)

their pride
<01346>

together with the spoils
<0698>

of their hands
<03027>_.

25:12

And the fortress
<04013>

of the high fort
<04869>

of thy walls
<02346>

shall he bring down
<07817> (8689)_,

lay low
<08213> (8689)_,

[and] bring
<05060> (8689)

to the ground
<0776>_,

[even] to the dust
<06083>_.

26:1

In that day
<03117>

shall this song
<07892>

be sung
<07891> (8714)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_;

We have a strong
<05797>

city
<05892>_;

salvation
<03444>

will [God] appoint
<07896> (8799)

[for] walls
<02346>

and bulwarks
<02426>_.

26:2

Open
<06605> (8798)

ye the gates
<08179>_,

that the righteous
<06662>

nation
<01471>

which keepeth
<08104> (8802)

the truth
<0529>

may enter in
<0935> (8799)_.

{truth: Heb. truths}

26:3

Thou wilt keep
<05341> (8799)

[him] in perfect
<07965>

peace
<07965>_,

[whose] mind
<03336>

[is] stayed
<05564> (8803)

[on thee]: because he trusteth
<0982> (8803)

in thee. {perfect...: Heb. peace, peace} {mind: or, thought, or, imagination}

26:4

Trust
<0982> (8798)

ye in the LORD
<03068>

for ever
<05703>_:

for in the LORD
<03050>

JEHOVAH
<03068>

[is] everlasting
<05769>

strength
<06697>_:

{everlasting...: Heb. the rock of ages}

26:5

For he bringeth down
<07817> (8689)

them that dwell
<03427> (8802)

on high
<04791>_;

the lofty
<07682> (8737)

city
<07151>_,

he layeth it low
<08213> (8686)_;

he layeth it low
<08213> (8686)_,

[even] to the ground
<0776>_;

he bringeth
<05060> (8686)

it [even] to the dust
<06083>_.

26:6

The foot
<07272>

shall tread it down
<07429> (8799)_,

[even] the feet
<07272>

of the poor
<06041>_,

[and] the steps
<06471>

of the needy
<01800>_.

26:7

The way
<0734>

of the just
<06662>

[is] uprightness
<04339>_:

thou, most upright
<03477>_,

dost weigh
<06424> (8762)

the path
<04570>

of the just
<06662>_.

26:8

Yea, in the way
<0734>

of thy judgments
<04941>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

have we waited
<06960> (8765)

for thee; the desire
<08378>

of [our] soul
<05315>

[is] to thy name
<08034>_,

and to the remembrance
<02143>

of thee.

26:9

With my soul
<05315>

have I desired
<0183> (8765)

thee in the night
<03915>_;

yea, with my spirit
<07307>

within
<07130>

me will I seek thee early
<07836> (8762)_:

for when thy judgments
<04941>

[are] in the earth
<0776>_,

the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the world
<08398>

will learn
<03925> (8804)

righteousness
<06664>_.

26:10

Let favour be shewed
<02603> (8717)

to the wicked
<07563>_,

[yet] will he not
<01077>

learn
<03925> (8804)

righteousness
<06664>_:

in the land
<0776>

of uprightness
<05229>

will he deal unjustly
<05765> (8762)_,

and will not
<01077>

behold
<07200> (8799)

the majesty
<01348>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

26:11

LORD
<03068>_,

[when] thy hand
<03027>

is lifted up
<07311> (8804)_,

they will not see
<02372> (8799)_:

[but] they shall see
<02372> (8799)_,

and be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

for [their] envy
<07068>

at the people
<05971>_;

yea, the fire
<0784>

of thine enemies
<06862>

shall devour
<0398> (8799)

them. {at...: or, toward thy people}

26:12

LORD
<03068>_,

thou wilt ordain
<08239> (8799)

peace
<07965>

for us: for thou also hast wrought
<06466> (8804)

all our works
<04639>

in us. {in us: or, for us}

26:13

O LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

[other] lords
<0113>

beside
<02108>

thee have had dominion
<01166> (8804)

over us: [but] by thee only will we make mention
<02142> (8686)

of thy name
<08034>_.

26:14

[They are] dead
<04191> (8801)_,

they shall not live
<02421> (8799)_;

[they are] deceased
<07496>_,

they shall not rise
<06965> (8799)_:

therefore hast thou visited
<06485> (8804)

and destroyed
<08045> (8686)

them, and made all their memory
<02143>

to perish
<06> (8762)_.

26:15

Thou hast increased
<03254> (8804)

the nation
<01471>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

thou hast increased
<03254> (8804)

the nation
<01471>_:

thou art glorified
<03513> (8738)_:

thou hadst removed [it] far
<07368> (8765)

[unto] all the ends
<07099>

of the earth
<0776>_.

26:16

LORD
<03068>_,

in trouble
<06862>

have they visited
<06485> (8804)

thee, they poured out
<06694> (8804)

a prayer
<03908>

[when] thy chastening
<04148>

[was] upon them. {prayer: Heb. secret speech}

26:17

Like
<03644>

as a woman with child
<02030>_,

[that] draweth near
<07126> (8686)

the time of her delivery
<03205> (8800)_,

is in pain
<02342> (8799)_,

[and] crieth out
<02199> (8799)

in her pangs
<02256>_;

so have we been in thy sight
<06440>_,

O LORD
<03068>_.

26:18

We have been with child
<02029> (8804)_,

we have been in pain
<02342> (8804)_,

we have as it were
<03644>

brought forth
<03205> (8804)

wind
<07307>_;

we have not wrought
<06213> (8799)

any deliverance
<03444>

in the earth
<0776>_;

neither
<01077>

have the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the world
<08398>

fallen
<05307> (8799)_.

26:19

Thy dead
<04191> (8801)

[men] shall live
<02421> (8799)_,

[together with] my dead body
<05038>

shall they arise
<06965> (8799)_.

Awake
<06974> (8685)

and sing
<07442> (8761)_,

ye that dwell
<07931> (8802)

in dust
<06083>_:

for thy dew
<02919>

[is as] the dew
<02919>

of herbs
<0219>_,

and the earth
<0776>

shall cast out
<05307> (8686)

the dead
<07496>_.

26:20

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

my people
<05971>_,

enter
<0935> (8798)

thou into thy chambers
<02315>_,

and shut
<05462> (8798)

thy doors
<01817>

about thee: hide
<02247> (8798)

thyself as it were for a little
<04592>

moment
<07281>_,

until the indignation
<02195>

be overpast
<05674> (8799)_.

26:21

For, behold, the LORD
<03068>

cometh out
<03318> (8802)

of his place
<04725>

to punish
<06485> (8800)

the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the earth
<0776>

for their iniquity
<05771>_:

the earth
<0776>

also shall disclose
<01540> (8765)

her blood
<01818>_,

and shall no more cover
<03680> (8762)

her slain
<02026> (8803)_.

{blood: Heb. bloods}

27:1

In that day
<03117>

the LORD
<03068>

with his sore
<07186>

and great
<01419>

and strong
<02389>

sword
<02719>

shall punish
<06485> (8799)

leviathan
<03882>

the piercing
<01281>

serpent
<05175>_,

even leviathan
<03882>

that crooked
<06129>

serpent
<05175>_;

and he shall slay
<02026> (8804)

the dragon
<08577>

that [is] in the sea
<03220>_.

{piercing: or, crossing like a bar}
