Isaiah 48:8-22

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>_.
