Isaiah 5:8-23

5:8

Woe
<01945>

unto them that join
<05060> (8688)

house
<01004>

to house
<01004>_,

[that] lay
<07126> (8686)

field
<07704>

to field
<07704>_,

till [there be] no
<0657>

place
<04725>_,

that they may be placed
<03427> (8717)

alone in the midst
<07130>

of the earth
<0776>_!

{they: Heb. ye}

5:9

In mine ears
<0241>

[said] the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Of a truth
<03808>

many
<07227>

houses
<01004>

shall be desolate
<08047>_,

[even] great
<01419>

and fair
<02896>_,

without inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

{In...: or, This is in mine ears, saith the LORD, etc} {Of a...: Heb. If not, etc}

5:10

Yea
<03588>_,

ten
<06235>

acres
<06776>

of vineyard
<03754>

shall yield
<06213> (8799)

one
<0259>

bath
<01324>_,

and the seed
<02233>

of an homer
<02563>

shall yield
<06213> (8799)

an ephah
<0374>_.

5:11

Woe
<01945>

unto them that rise up early
<07925> (8688)

in the morning
<01242>_,

[that] they may follow
<07291> (8799)

strong drink
<07941>_;

that continue
<0309> (8764)

until night
<05399>_,

[till] wine
<03196>

inflame
<01814> (8686)

them! {inflame: of, pursue}

5:12

And the harp
<03658>_,

and the viol
<05035>_,

the tabret
<08596>_,

and pipe
<02485>_,

and wine
<03196>_,

are in their feasts
<04960>_:

but they regard
<05027> (8686)

not the work
<06467>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

neither consider
<07200> (8804)

the operation
<04639>

of his hands
<03027>_.

5:13

Therefore my people
<05971>

are gone into captivity
<01540> (8804)_,

because [they have] no knowledge
<01847>_:

and their honourable
<03519>

men
<04962>

[are] famished
<07458>_,

and their multitude
<01995>

dried up
<06704>

with thirst
<06772>_.

{honourable...: Heb. glory are men of famine}

5:14

Therefore hell
<07585>

hath enlarged
<07337> (8689)

herself
<05315>_,

and opened
<06473> (8804)

her mouth
<06310>

without measure
<02706>_:

and their glory
<01926>_,

and their multitude
<01995>_,

and their pomp
<07588>_,

and he that rejoiceth
<05938>_,

shall descend
<03381> (8804)

into it.

5:15

And the mean man
<0120>

shall be brought down
<07817> (8735)_,

and the mighty man
<0376>

shall be humbled
<08213> (8799)_,

and the eyes
<05869>

of the lofty
<01364>

shall be humbled
<08213> (8799)_:

5:16

But the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

shall be exalted
<01361> (8799)

in judgment
<04941>_,

and God
<0410>

that is holy
<06918>

shall be sanctified
<06942> (8738)

in righteousness
<06666>_.

{God...: or, the holy God: Heb. the God the holy}

5:17

Then shall the lambs
<03532>

feed
<07462> (8804)

after their manner
<01699>_,

and the waste places
<02723>

of the fat ones
<04220>

shall strangers
<01481> (8802)

eat
<0398> (8799)_.

5:18

Woe
<01945>

unto them that draw
<04900> (8802)

iniquity
<05771>

with cords
<02256>

of vanity
<07723>_,

and sin
<02403>

as it were with a cart
<05699>

rope
<05688>_:

5:19

That say
<0559> (8802)_,

Let him make speed
<04116> (8762)_,

[and] hasten
<02363> (8686)

his work
<04639>_,

that we may see
<07200> (8799)

[it]: and let the counsel
<06098>

of the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>

draw nigh
<07126> (8799)

and come
<0935> (8799)_,

that we may know
<03045> (8799)

[it]!

5:20

Woe
<01945>

unto them that call
<0559> (8802)

evil
<07451>

good
<02896>_,

and good
<02896>

evil
<07451>_;

that put
<07760> (8802)

darkness
<02822>

for light
<0216>_,

and light
<0216>

for darkness
<02822>_;

that put
<07760> (8802)

bitter
<04751>

for sweet
<04966>_,

and sweet
<04966>

for bitter
<04751>_!

{call...: Heb. say concerning evil, It is good, etc}

5:21

Woe
<01945>

unto [them that are] wise
<02450>

in their own eyes
<05869>_,

and prudent
<0995> (8737)

in their own sight
<06440>_!

{in their own sight: Heb. before their face}

5:22

Woe
<01945>

unto [them that are] mighty
<01368>

to drink
<08354> (8800)

wine
<03196>_,

and men
<0582>

of strength
<02428>

to mingle
<04537> (8800)

strong drink
<07941>_:

5:23

Which justify
<06663> (8688)

the wicked
<07563>

for
<06118>

reward
<07810>_,

and take away
<05493> (8686)

the righteousness
<06666>

of the righteous
<06662>

from him!
