Isaiah 43:23-28

43:23

Thou hast not brought
<0935> (8689)

me the small cattle
<07716>

of thy burnt offerings
<05930>_;

neither hast thou honoured
<03513> (8765)

me with thy sacrifices
<02077>_.

I have not caused thee to serve
<05647> (8689)

with an offering
<04503>_,

nor wearied
<03021> (8689)

thee with incense
<03828>_.

{small...: Heb. lambs, or, kids}

43:24

Thou hast bought
<07069> (8804)

me no sweet cane
<07070>

with money
<03701>_,

neither hast thou filled
<07301> (8689)

me with the fat
<02459>

of thy sacrifices
<02077>_:

but thou hast made me to serve
<05647> (8689)

with thy sins
<02403>_,

thou hast wearied
<03021> (8689)

me with thine iniquities
<05771>_.

{filled...: Heb. made me drunk, or, abundantly moistened}

43:25

I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth out
<04229> (8802)

thy transgressions
<06588>

for mine own sake, and will not remember
<02142> (8799)

thy sins
<02403>_.

43:26

Put me in remembrance
<02142> (8685)_:

let us plead
<08199> (8735)

together
<03162>_:

declare
<05608> (8761)

thou, that thou mayest be justified
<06663> (8799)_.

43:27

Thy first
<07223>

father
<01>

hath sinned
<02398> (8804)_,

and thy teachers
<03887> (8688)

have transgressed
<06586> (8804)

against me. {teachers: Heb. interpreters}

43:28

Therefore I have profaned
<02490> (8762)

the princes
<08269>

of the sanctuary
<06944>_,

and have given
<05414> (8799)

Jacob
<03290>

to the curse
<02764>_,

and Israel
<03478>

to reproaches
<01421>_.

{princes...: or, holy princes}
