Isaiah 49:14--50:3

But Zion
<06726>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
hath forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and my Lord
<0136>
hath forgotten
<07911> (8804)
me.
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}
Behold, I have graven
<02710> (8804)
thee upon the palms of [my] hands
<03709>_;
thy walls
<02346>
[are] continually
<08548>
before me.
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.
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].
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)_.
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)_.
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]?
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}
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}
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}
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}
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}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Where [is] the bill
<05612>
of your mother's
<0517>
divorcement
<03748>_,
whom I have put away
<07971> (8765)_?
or which of my creditors
<05383> (8802)
[is it] to whom I have sold
<04376> (8804)
you? Behold, for your iniquities
<05771>
have ye sold
<04376> (8738)
yourselves, and for your transgressions
<06588>
is your mother
<0517>
put away
<07971> (8795)_.
Wherefore, when I came
<0935> (8804)_,
[was there] no man
<0376>_?
when I called
<07121> (8804)_,
[was there] none to answer
<06030> (8802)_?
Is my hand
<03027>
shortened
<07114> (8804)
at all
<07114> (8800)_,
that it cannot redeem
<06304>_?
or have I no power
<03581>
to deliver
<05337> (8687)_?
behold, at my rebuke
<01606>
I dry up
<02717> (8686)
the sea
<03220>_,
I make
<07760> (8799)
the rivers
<05104>
a wilderness
<04057>_:
their fish
<01710>
stinketh
<0887> (8799)_,
because [there is] no water
<04325>_,
and dieth
<04191> (8799)
for thirst
<06772>_.
I clothe
<03847> (8686)
the heavens
<08064>
with blackness
<06940>_,
and I make
<07760> (8799)
sackcloth
<08242>
their covering
<03682>_.
