Isaiah 28:14-29

28:14

Wherefore hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

ye scornful
<03944>

men
<0582>_,

that rule
<04910> (8802)

this people
<05971>

which [is] in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

28:15

Because ye have said
<0559> (8804)_,

We have made
<03772> (8804)

a covenant
<01285>

with death
<04194>_,

and with hell
<07585>

are we
<06213> (8804)

at agreement
<02374>_;

when the overflowing
<07857> (8802)

scourge
<07752> (8675) <07885>

shall pass through
<05674> (8799) (8675) <05674> (8804)_,

it shall not come
<0935> (8799)

unto us: for we have made
<07760> (8804)

lies
<03577>

our refuge
<04268>_,

and under falsehood
<08267>

have we hid
<05641> (8738)

ourselves:

28:16

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_,

Behold, I lay
<03245> (8765)

in Zion
<06726>

for a foundation a stone
<068>_,

a tried
<0976>

stone
<068>_,

a precious
<03368>

corner
<06438>

[stone], a sure
<03245> (8716)

foundation
<04143>_:

he that believeth
<0539> (8688)

shall not make haste
<02363> (8686)_.

28:17

Judgment
<04941>

also will I lay
<07760> (8804)

to the line
<06957>_,

and righteousness
<06666>

to the plummet
<04949>_:

and the hail
<01259>

shall sweep away
<03261> (8804)

the refuge
<04268>

of lies
<03577>_,

and the waters
<04325>

shall overflow
<07857> (8799)

the hiding place
<05643>_.

28:18

And your covenant
<01285>

with death
<04194>

shall be disannulled
<03722> (8795)_,

and your agreement
<02380>

with hell
<07585>

shall not stand
<06965> (8799)_;

when the overflowing
<07857> (8802)

scourge
<07752>

shall pass through
<05674> (8799)_,

then ye shall be trodden down
<04823>

by it. {trodden...: Heb. a treading down to it}

28:19

From the time
<01767>

that it goeth forth
<05674> (8800)

it shall take
<03947> (8799)

you: for morning
<01242>

by morning
<01242>

shall it pass over
<05674> (8799)_,

by day
<03117>

and by night
<03915>_:

and it shall be a vexation
<02113>

only [to] understand
<0995> (8687)

the report
<08052>_.

{to...: or, when he shall make you to understand doctrine}

28:20

For the bed
<04702>

is shorter
<07114> (8804)

than that [a man] can stretch
<08311> (8692)

himself [on it]: and the covering
<04541>

narrower
<06887> (8804)

than that he can wrap
<03664> (8692)

himself [in it].

28:21

For the LORD
<03068>

shall rise up
<06965> (8799)

as [in] mount
<02022>

Perazim
<06559>_,

he shall be wroth
<07264> (8799)

as [in] the valley
<06010>

of Gibeon
<01391>_,

that he may do
<06213> (8800)

his work
<04639>_,

his strange
<02114> (8801)

work
<04639>_;

and bring to pass
<05647> (8800)

his act
<05656>_,

his strange
<05237>

act
<05656>_.

28:22

Now therefore be ye not mockers
<03887> (8698)_,

lest your bands
<04147>

be made strong
<02388> (8799)_:

for I have heard
<08085> (8804)

from the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>

a consumption
<03617>_,

even determined
<02782> (8737)

upon the whole earth
<0776>_.

28:23

Give ye ear
<0238> (8685)_,

and hear
<08085> (8798)

my voice
<06963>_;

hearken
<07181> (8685)_,

and hear
<08085> (8798)

my speech
<0565>_.

28:24

Doth the plowman
<02790> (8802)

plow
<02790> (8799)

all day
<03117>

to sow
<02232> (8800)_?

doth he open
<06605> (8762)

and break the clods
<07702> (8762)

of his ground
<0127>_?

28:25

When he hath made plain
<07737> (8765)

the face
<06440>

thereof, doth he not cast abroad
<06327> (8689)

the fitches
<07100>_,

and scatter
<02236> (8799)

the cummin
<03646>_,

and cast
<07760> (8804)

in the principal
<07795>

wheat
<02406>

and the appointed
<05567> (8737)

barley
<08184>

and the rie
<03698>

in their place
<01367>_?

{the principal...: or, the wheat in the principal place, and barley in the appointed place} {rie: or, spelt} {place: Heb. border?}

28:26

For his God
<0430>

doth instruct
<03256> (8765)

him to discretion
<04941>_,

[and] doth teach
<03384> (8686)

him. {For...: or, And he bindeth it in such sort as his God doth teach him}

28:27

For the fitches
<07100>

are not threshed
<01758> (8714)

with a threshing instrument
<02742>_,

neither is a cart
<05699>

wheel
<0212>

turned about
<05437> (8714)

upon the cummin
<03646>_;

but the fitches
<07100>

are beaten out
<02251> (8735)

with a staff
<04294>_,

and the cummin
<03646>

with a rod
<07626>_.

28:28

Bread
<03899>

[corn] is bruised
<01854> (8714)_;

because he will not ever
<05331>

be threshing
<0156> (8800) <01758> (8799)

it, nor break
<02000> (8804)

[it with] the wheel
<01536>

of his cart
<05699>_,

nor bruise
<01854> (8799)

it [with] his horsemen
<06571>_.

28:29

This also cometh forth
<03318> (8804)

from the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

[which] is wonderful
<06381> (8689)

in counsel
<06098>_,

[and] excellent
<01431> (8689)

in working
<08454>_.
