Isaiah 46:1--49:26

46:1

Bel
<01078>

boweth down
<03766> (8804)_,

Nebo
<05015>

stoopeth
<07164> (8802)_,

their idols
<06091>

were upon the beasts
<02416>_,

and upon the cattle
<0929>_:

your carriages
<05385>

[were] heavy loaden
<06006> (8803)_;

[they are] a burden
<04853>

to the weary
<05889>

[beast].

46:2

They stoop
<07164> (8804)_,

they bow down
<03766> (8804)

together
<03162>_;

they could
<03201> (8804)

not deliver
<04422> (8763)

the burden
<04853>_,

but themselves
<05315>

are gone
<01980> (8804)

into captivity
<07628>_.

{themselves: Heb. their soul}

46:3

Hearken
<08085> (8798)

unto me, O house
<01004>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

and all the remnant
<07611>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which are borne
<06006> (8803)

[by me] from the belly
<0990>_,

which are carried
<05375> (8803)

from the womb
<07356>_:

46:4

And [even] to [your] old age
<02209>

I [am] he; and [even] to hoar hairs
<07872>

will I carry
<05445> (8799)

[you]: I have made
<06213> (8804)_,

and I will bear
<05375> (8799)_;

even I will carry
<05445> (8799)_,

and will deliver
<04422> (8762)

[you].

46:5

To whom will ye liken
<01819> (8762)

me, and make [me] equal
<07737> (8686)_,

and compare
<04911> (8686)

me, that we may be like
<01819> (8799)_?

46:6

They lavish
<02107> (8801)

gold
<02091>

out of the bag
<03599>_,

and weigh
<08254> (8799)

silver
<03701>

in the balance
<07070>_,

[and] hire
<07936> (8799)

a goldsmith
<06884> (8802)_;

and he maketh
<06213> (8799)

it a god
<0410>_:

they fall down
<05456> (8799)_,

yea, they worship
<07812> (8691)_.

46:7

They bear
<05375> (8799)

him upon the shoulder
<03802>_,

they carry
<05445> (8799)

him, and set him in his place
<03240> (8686)_,

and he standeth
<05975> (8799)_;

from his place
<04725>

shall he not remove
<04185> (8686)_:

yea, [one] shall cry
<06817> (8799)

unto him, yet can he not answer
<06030> (8799)_,

nor save
<03467> (8686)

him out of his trouble
<06869>_.

46:8

Remember
<02142> (8798)

this, and shew yourselves men
<0377> (8695)_:

bring [it] again
<07725> (8685)

to mind
<03820>_,

O ye transgressors
<06586> (8802)_.

46:9

Remember
<02142> (8798)

the former things
<07223>

of old
<05769>_:

for I [am] God
<0410>_,

and [there is] none else; [I am] God
<0430>_,

and [there is] none
<0657>

like
<03644>

me,

46:10

Declaring
<05046> (8688)

the end
<0319>

from the beginning
<07225>_,

and from ancient times
<06924>

[the things] that are not [yet] done
<06213> (8738)_,

saying
<0559> (8802)_,

My counsel
<06098>

shall stand
<06965> (8799)_,

and I will do
<06213> (8799)

all my pleasure
<02656>_:

46:11

Calling
<07121> (8802)

a ravenous bird
<05861>

from the east
<04217>_,

the man
<0376>

that executeth my counsel
<06098>

from a far
<04801>

country
<0776>_:

yea, I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

[it], I will also bring
<0935> (8686)

it to pass; I have purposed
<03335> (8804)

[it], I will also do
<06213> (8799)

it. {that...: Heb. of my counsel}

46:12

Hearken
<08085> (8798)

unto me, ye stouthearted
<047> <03820>_,

that [are] far from
<07350>

righteousness
<06666>_:

46:13

I bring near
<07126> (8765)

my righteousness
<06666>_;

it shall not be far off
<07368> (8799)_,

and my salvation
<08668>

shall not tarry
<0309> (8762)_:

and I will place
<05414> (8804)

salvation
<08668>

in Zion
<06726>

for Israel
<03478>

my glory
<08597>_.

47:1

Come down
<03381> (8798)_,

and sit
<03427> (8798)

in the dust
<06083>_,

O virgin
<01330>

daughter
<01323>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

sit
<03427> (8798)

on the ground
<0776>_:

[there is] no throne
<03678>_,

O daughter
<01323>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_:

for thou shalt no more
<03254> (8686)

be called
<07121> (8799)

tender
<07390>

and delicate
<06028>_.

47:2

Take
<03947> (8798)

the millstones
<07347>_,

and grind
<02912> (8798)

meal
<07058>_:

uncover
<01540> (8761)

thy locks
<06777>_,

make bare
<02834> (8798)

the leg
<07640>_,

uncover
<01540> (8761)

the thigh
<07785>_,

pass over
<05674> (8798)

the rivers
<05104>_.

47:3

Thy nakedness
<06172>

shall be uncovered
<01540> (8735)_,

yea, thy shame
<02781>

shall be seen
<07200> (8735)_:

I will take
<03947> (8799)

vengeance
<05359>_,

and I will not meet
<06293> (8799)

[thee as] a man
<0120>_.

47:4

[As for] our redeemer
<01350> (8802)_,

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

[is] his name
<08034>_,

the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_.

47:5

Sit
<03427> (8798)

thou silent
<01748>_,

and get
<0935> (8798)

thee into darkness
<02822>_,

O daughter
<01323>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_:

for thou shalt no more
<03254> (8686)

be called
<07121> (8799)_,

The lady
<01404>

of kingdoms
<04467>_.

47:6

I was wroth
<07107> (8804)

with my people
<05971>_,

I have polluted
<02490> (8765)

mine inheritance
<05159>_,

and given
<05414> (8799)

them into thine hand
<03027>_:

thou didst shew
<07760> (8804)

them no mercy
<07356>_;

upon the ancient
<02205>

hast thou very
<03966>

heavily
<03513> (8689)

laid thy yoke
<05923>_.

47:7

And thou saidst
<0559> (8799)_,

I shall be a lady
<01404>

for ever
<05769>_:

[so] that thou didst not lay
<07760> (8804)

these [things] to thy heart
<03820>_,

neither didst remember
<02142> (8804)

the latter end
<0319>

of it.

47:8

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

now this, [thou that art] given to pleasures
<05719>_,

that dwellest
<03427> (8802)

carelessly
<0983>_,

that sayest
<0559> (8802)

in thine heart
<03824>_,

I [am], and none else
<0657>

beside me; I shall not sit
<03427> (8799)

[as] a widow
<0490>_,

neither shall I know
<03045> (8799)

the loss of children
<07908>_:

47:9

But these two
<08147>

[things] shall come
<0935> (8799)

to thee in a moment
<07281>

in one
<0259>

day
<03117>_,

the loss of children
<07908>_,

and widowhood
<0489>_:

they shall come
<0935> (8804)

upon thee in their perfection
<08537>

for the multitude
<07230>

of thy sorceries
<03785>_,

[and] for the great
<03966>

abundance
<06109>

of thine enchantments
<02267>_.

47:10

For thou hast trusted
<0982> (8799)

in thy wickedness
<07451>_:

thou hast said
<0559> (8804)_,

None seeth
<07200> (8802)

me. Thy wisdom
<02451>

and thy knowledge
<01847>_,

it hath perverted
<07725> (8790)

thee; and thou hast said
<0559> (8799)

in thine heart
<03820>_,

I [am], and none else
<0657>

beside me. {perverted...: or, caused thee to turn away}

47:11

Therefore shall evil
<07451>

come
<0935> (8804)

upon thee; thou shalt not know
<03045> (8799)

from whence it riseth
<07837>_:

and mischief
<01943>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

upon thee; thou shalt not be able
<03201> (8799)

to put it off
<03722> (8763)_:

and desolation
<07722>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

upon thee suddenly
<06597>_,

[which] thou shalt not know
<03045> (8799)_.

{from...: Heb. the morning thereof} {put: Heb. expiate}

47:12

Stand
<05975> (8798)

now with thine enchantments
<02267>_,

and with the multitude
<07230>

of thy sorceries
<03785>_,

wherein
<0834>

thou hast laboured
<03021> (8804)

from thy youth
<05271>_;

if so be thou shalt be able
<03201> (8799)

to profit
<03276> (8687)_,

if so be thou mayest prevail
<06206> (8799)_.

47:13

Thou art wearied
<03811> (8738)

in the multitude
<07230>

of thy counsels
<06098>_.

Let now the astrologers
<01895> (8802) <08064>_,

the stargazers
<02374> <03556>_,

the monthly
<02320>

prognosticators
<03045> (8688)_,

stand up
<05975> (8799)_,

and save
<03467> (8686)

thee from [these things] that shall come
<0935> (8799)

upon thee. {astrologers: Heb. viewers of the heavens} {the monthly...: Heb. that give knowledge concerning the months}

47:14

Behold, they shall be as stubble
<07179>_;

the fire
<0784>

shall burn
<08313> (8804)

them; they shall not deliver
<05337> (8686)

themselves
<05315>

from the power
<03027>

of the flame
<03852>_:

[there shall] not [be] a coal
<01513>

to warm
<02552> (8800)

at, [nor] fire
<0217>

to sit
<03427> (8800)

before it. {themselves: Heb. their souls}

47:15

Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured
<03021> (8804)_,

[even] thy merchants
<05503> (8802)_,

from thy youth
<05271>_:

they shall wander
<08582> (8804)

every one
<0376>

to his quarter
<05676>_;

none shall save
<03467> (8688)

thee.

48:1

Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye this, O house
<01004>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

which are called
<07121> (8737)

by the name
<08034>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and are come forth
<03318> (8804)

out of the waters
<04325>

of Judah
<03063>_,

which swear
<07650> (8737)

by the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and make mention
<02142> (8686)

of the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[but] not in truth
<0571>_,

nor in righteousness
<06666>_.

48:2

For they call
<07121> (8738)

themselves of the holy
<06944>

city
<05892>_,

and stay
<05564> (8738)

themselves upon the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

The LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

[is] his name
<08034>_.

48:3

I have declared
<05046> (8689)

the former things
<07223>

from the beginning
<0227>_;

and they went forth
<03318> (8804)

out of my mouth
<06310>_,

and I shewed
<08085> (8686)

them; I did
<06213> (8804)

[them] suddenly
<06597>_,

and they came to pass
<0935> (8799)_.

48:4

Because I knew
<01847>

that thou [art] obstinate
<07186>_,

and thy neck
<06203>

[is] an iron
<01270>

sinew
<01517>_,

and thy brow
<04696>

brass
<05154>_;

{obstinate: Heb. hard}

48:5

I have even from the beginning
<0227>

declared
<05046> (8686)

[it] to thee; before it came to pass
<0935> (8799)

I shewed
<08085> (8689)

[it] thee: lest thou shouldest say
<0559> (8799)_,

Mine idol
<06090>

hath done
<06213> (8804)

them, and my graven image
<06459>_,

and my molten image
<05262>_,

hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

them.

48:6

Thou hast heard
<08085> (8804)_,

see
<02372> (8798)

all this; and will not ye declare
<05046> (8686)

[it]? I have shewed
<08085> (8689)

thee new things
<02319>

from this time
<06258>_,

even hidden things
<05341> (8803)_,

and thou didst not know
<03045> (8804)

them.

48:7

They are created
<01254> (8738)

now, and not from the beginning; even before
<06440>

the day
<03117>

when thou heardest
<08085> (8804)

them not; lest thou shouldest say
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, I knew
<03045> (8804)

them.

48:8

Yea, thou heardest
<08085> (8804)

not; yea, thou knewest
<03045> (8804)

not; yea, from that time [that] thine ear
<0241>

was not opened
<06605> (8765)_:

for I knew
<03045> (8804)

that thou wouldest deal very
<0898> (8800)

treacherously
<0898> (8799)_,

and wast called
<07121> (8795)

a transgressor
<06586> (8802)

from the womb
<0990>_.

48:9

For my name's
<08034>

sake will I defer
<0748> (8686)

mine anger
<0639>_,

and for my praise
<08416>

will I refrain
<02413> (8799)

for thee, that I cut thee not off
<03772> (8687)_.

48:10

Behold, I have refined
<06884> (8804)

thee, but not with silver
<03701>_;

I have chosen
<0977> (8804)

thee in the furnace
<03564>

of affliction
<06040>_.

{with...: or, for silver}

48:11

For mine own sake, [even] for mine own sake, will I do
<06213> (8799)

[it]: for how should [my name] be polluted
<02490> (8735)_?

and I will not give
<05414> (8799)

my glory
<03519>

unto another
<0312>_.

48:12

Hearken
<08085> (8798)

unto me, O Jacob
<03290>

and Israel
<03478>_,

my called
<07121> (8794)_;

I [am] he; I [am] the first
<07223>_,

I also [am] the last
<0314>_.

48:13

Mine hand
<03027>

also hath laid the foundation
<03245> (8804)

of the earth
<0776>_,

and my right hand
<03225>

hath spanned
<02946> (8765)

the heavens
<08064>_:

[when] I call
<07121> (8802)

unto them, they stand up
<05975> (8799)

together
<03162>_.

{my...: or, the palm of my right hand hath spread out}

48:14

All ye, assemble
<06908> (8734)

yourselves, and hear
<08085> (8798)_;

which among them hath declared
<05046> (8689)

these [things]? The LORD
<03068>

hath loved
<0157> (8804)

him: he will do
<06213> (8799)

his pleasure
<02656>

on Babylon
<0894>_,

and his arm
<02220>

[shall be on] the Chaldeans
<03778>_.

48:15

I, [even] I, have spoken
<01696> (8765)_;

yea, I have called
<07121> (8804)

him: I have brought
<0935> (8689)

him, and he shall make his way
<01870>

prosperous
<06743> (8689)_.

48:16

Come
<07126> (8798)

ye near
<07126> (8798)

unto me, hear
<08085> (8798)

ye this; I have not spoken
<01696> (8765)

in secret
<05643>

from the beginning
<07218>_;

from the time
<06256>

that it was, there [am] I: and now the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_,

and his Spirit
<07307>_,

hath sent
<07971> (8804)

me.

48:17

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

thy Redeemer
<01350> (8802)_,

the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_;

I [am] the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

which teacheth
<03925> (8764)

thee to profit
<03276> (8687)_,

which leadeth
<01869> (8688)

thee by the way
<01870>

[that] thou shouldest go
<03212> (8799)_.

48:18

O that
<03863>

thou hadst hearkened
<07181> (8689)

to my commandments
<04687>_!

then had thy peace
<07965>

been as a river
<05104>_,

and thy righteousness
<06666>

as the waves
<01530>

of the sea
<03220>_:

48:19

Thy seed
<02233>

also had been as the sand
<02344>_,

and the offspring
<06631>

of thy bowels
<04578>

like the gravel
<04579>

thereof; his name
<08034>

should not have been cut off
<03772> (8735)

nor destroyed
<08045> (8735)

from before
<06440>

me.

48:20

Go ye forth
<03318> (8798)

of Babylon
<0894>_,

flee
<01272> (8798)

ye from the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

with a voice
<06963>

of singing
<07440>

declare
<05046> (8685)

ye, tell
<08085> (8685)

this, utter
<03318> (8685)

it [even] to the end
<07097>

of the earth
<0776>_;

say
<0559> (8798)

ye, The LORD
<03068>

hath redeemed
<01350> (8804)

his servant
<05650>

Jacob
<03290>_.

48:21

And they thirsted
<06770> (8804)

not [when] he led
<03212> (8689)

them through the deserts
<02723>_:

he caused the waters
<04325>

to flow
<05140> (8689)

out of the rock
<06697>

for them: he clave
<01234> (8799)

the rock
<06697>

also, and the waters
<04325>

gushed out
<02100> (8799)_.

48:22

[There is] no peace
<07965>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

unto the wicked
<07563>_.

49:1

Listen
<08085> (8798)_,

O isles
<0339>_,

unto me; and hearken
<07181> (8685)_,

ye people
<03816>_,

from far
<07350>_;

The LORD
<03068>

hath called
<07121> (8804)

me from the womb
<0990>_;

from the bowels
<04578>

of my mother
<0517>

hath he made mention
<02142> (8689)

of my name
<08034>_.

49:2

And he hath made
<07760> (8799)

my mouth
<06310>

like a sharp
<02299>

sword
<02719>_;

in the shadow
<06738>

of his hand
<03027>

hath he hid
<02244> (8689)

me, and made
<07760> (8799)

me a polished
<01305> (8803)

shaft
<02671>_;

in his quiver
<0827>

hath he hid
<05641> (8689)

me;

49:3

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Thou [art] my servant
<05650>_,

O Israel
<03478>_,

in whom I will be glorified
<06286> (8691)_.

49:4

Then I said
<0559> (8804)_,

I have laboured
<03021> (8804)

in vain
<07385>_,

I have spent
<03615> (8765)

my strength
<03581>

for nought
<08414>_,

and in vain
<01892>_:

[yet] surely
<0403>

my judgment
<04941>

[is] with the LORD
<03068>_,

and my work
<06468>

with my God
<0430>_.

{my work: or, my reward}

49:5

And now, saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

that formed
<03335> (8802)

me from the womb
<0990>

[to be] his servant
<05650>_,

to bring
<07725> (0)

Jacob
<03290>

again
<07725> (8788)

to him, Though Israel
<03478>

be not gathered
<0622> (8735)_,

yet shall I be glorious
<03513> (8735)

in the eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and my God
<0430>

shall be my strength
<05797>_.

{Though...: or, That Israel may be gathered to him, and I may, etc}

49:6

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

It is a light thing
<07043> (8738)

that thou shouldest be my servant
<05650>

to raise up
<06965> (8687)

the tribes
<07626>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

and to restore
<07725> (8687)

the preserved
<05341> (8803) (8675) <05336>

of Israel
<03478>_:

I will also give
<05414> (8804)

thee for a light
<0216>

to the Gentiles
<01471>_,

that thou mayest be my salvation
<03444>

unto the end
<07097>

of the earth
<0776>_.

{It is...: or, Art thou lighter than that thou shouldest, etc} {preserved: or, desolations}

49:7

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the Redeemer
<01350> (8802)

of Israel
<03478>_,

[and] his Holy One
<06918>_,

to him whom man
<05315>

despiseth
<0960>_,

to him whom the nation
<01471>

abhorreth
<08581> (8764)_,

to a servant
<05650>

of rulers
<04910> (8802)_,

Kings
<04428>

shall see
<07200> (8799)

and arise
<06965> (8804)_,

princes
<08269>

also shall worship
<07812> (8691)_,

because of the LORD
<03068>

that is faithful
<0539> (8737)_,

[and] the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and he shall choose
<0977> (8799)

thee. {whom man...: or, that is despised in soul}

49:8

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

In an acceptable
<07522>

time
<06256>

have I heard
<06030> (8804)

thee, and in a day
<03117>

of salvation
<03444>

have I helped
<05826> (8804)

thee: and I will preserve
<05341> (8799)

thee, and give
<05414> (8799)

thee for a covenant
<01285>

of the people
<05971>_,

to establish
<06965> (8687)

the earth
<0776>_,

to cause to inherit
<05157> (8687)

the desolate
<08074> (8802)

heritages
<05159>_;

{establish: or, raise up}

49:9

That thou mayest say
<0559> (8800)

to the prisoners
<0631> (8803)_,

Go forth
<03318> (8798)_;

to them that [are] in darkness
<02822>_,

Shew
<01540> (8734)

yourselves. They shall feed
<07462> (8799)

in the ways
<01870>_,

and their pastures
<04830>

[shall be] in all high places
<08205>_.

49:10

They shall not hunger
<07456> (8799)

nor thirst
<06770> (8799)_;

neither shall the heat
<08273>

nor sun
<08121>

smite
<05221> (8686)

them: for he that hath mercy
<07355> (8764)

on them shall lead
<05090> (8762)

them, even by the springs
<04002>

of water
<04325>

shall he guide
<05095> (8762)

them.

49:11

And I will make
<07760> (8804)

all my mountains
<02022>

a way
<01870>_,

and my highways
<04546>

shall be exalted
<07311> (8799)_.

49:12

Behold, these shall come
<0935> (8799)

from far
<07350>_:

and, lo, these from the north
<06828>

and from the west
<03220>_;

and these from the land
<0776>

of Sinim
<05515>_.

49:13

Sing
<07442> (8798)_,

O heavens
<08064>_;

and be joyful
<01523> (8798)_,

O earth
<0776>_;

and break forth
<06476> (8798)

into singing
<07440>_,

O mountains
<02022>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath comforted
<05162> (8765)

his people
<05971>_,

and will have mercy
<07355> (8762)

upon his afflicted
<06041>_.

49:14

But Zion
<06726>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

The LORD
<03068>

hath forsaken
<05800> (8804)

me, and my Lord
<0136>

hath forgotten
<07911> (8804)

me.

49:15

Can a woman
<0802>

forget
<07911> (8799)

her sucking child
<05764>_,

that she should not have compassion
<07355> (8763)

on the son
<01121>

of her womb
<0990>_?

yea, they may forget
<07911> (8799)_,

yet will I not forget
<07911> (8799)

thee. {that...: Heb. from having compassion}

49:16

Behold, I have graven
<02710> (8804)

thee upon the palms of [my] hands
<03709>_;

thy walls
<02346>

[are] continually
<08548>

before me.

49:17

Thy children
<01121>

shall make haste
<04116> (8765)_;

thy destroyers
<02040> (8764)

and they that made thee waste
<02717> (8688)

shall go forth
<03318> (8799)

of thee.

49:18

Lift up
<05375> (8798)

thine eyes
<05869>

round about
<05439>_,

and behold
<07200> (8798)_:

all these gather themselves together
<06908> (8738)_,

[and] come
<0935> (8804)

to thee. [As] I live
<02416>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

thou shalt surely clothe
<03847> (8799)

thee with them all, as with an ornament
<05716>_,

and bind
<07194> (8762)

them [on thee], as a bride
<03618>

[doeth].

49:19

For thy waste
<02723>

and thy desolate places
<08074> (8802)_,

and the land
<0776>

of thy destruction
<02035>_,

shall even now be too narrow
<03334> (8799)

by reason of the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)_,

and they that swallowed thee up
<01104> (8764)

shall be far away
<07368> (8804)_.

49:20

The children
<01121>

which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost
<07923>

the other, shall say
<0559> (8799)

again in thine ears
<0241>_,

The place
<04725>

[is] too strait
<06862>

for me: give
<05066> (8798)

place
<04725>

to me that I may dwell
<03427> (8799)_.

49:21

Then shalt thou say
<0559> (8804)

in thine heart
<03824>_,

Who hath begotten
<03205> (8804)

me these, seeing I have lost my children
<07921> (8803)_,

and am desolate
<01565>_,

a captive
<01540> (8802)_,

and removing to and fro
<05493> (8803)_?

and who hath brought up
<01431> (8765)

these? Behold, I was left
<07604> (8738)

alone; these, where
<0375>

[had] they [been]?

49:22

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_,

Behold, I will lift up
<05375> (8799)

mine hand
<03027>

to the Gentiles
<01471>_,

and set up
<07311> (8686)

my standard
<05251>

to the people
<05971>_:

and they shall bring
<0935> (8689)

thy sons
<01121>

in [their] arms
<02684>_,

and thy daughters
<01323>

shall be carried
<05375> (8735)

upon [their] shoulders
<03802>_.

{arms: Heb. bosom}

49:23

And kings
<04428>

shall be thy nursing fathers
<0539> (8802)_,

and their queens
<08282>

thy nursing mothers
<03243> (8688)_:

they shall bow down
<07812> (8691)

to thee with [their] face
<0639>

toward the earth
<0776>_,

and lick up
<03897> (8762)

the dust
<06083>

of thy feet
<07272>_;

and thou shalt know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_:

for they shall not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

that wait
<06960> (8802)

for me. {nursing fathers: Heb. nourishers} {queens: Heb. princesses}

49:24

Shall the prey
<04455>

be taken
<03947> (8714)

from the mighty
<01368>_,

or the lawful
<06662>

captive
<07628>

delivered
<04422> (8735)_?

{lawful...: Heb. captivity of the just}

49:25

But thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Even the captives
<07628>

of the mighty
<01368>

shall be taken away
<03947> (8714)_,

and the prey
<04455>

of the terrible
<06184>

shall be delivered
<04422> (8735)_:

for I will contend
<07378> (8799)

with him that contendeth
<03401>

with thee, and I will save
<03467> (8686)

thy children
<01121>_.

{captives: Heb. captivity}

49:26

And I will feed
<0398> (8689)

them that oppress
<03238> (8688)

thee with their own flesh
<01320>_;

and they shall be drunken
<07937> (8799)

with their own blood
<01818>_,

as with sweet wine
<06071>_:

and all flesh
<01320>

shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I the LORD
<03068>

[am] thy Saviour
<03467> (8688)

and thy Redeemer
<01350> (8802)_,

the mighty One
<046>

of Jacob
<03290>_.

{sweet: or, new}
