Isaiah 51:1-21

51:1

Hearken
<08085> (8798)

to me, ye that follow after
<07291> (8802)

righteousness
<06664>_,

ye that seek
<01245> (8764)

the LORD
<03068>_:

look
<05027> (8685)

unto the rock
<06697>

[whence] ye are hewn
<02672> (8795)_,

and to the hole
<04718>

of the pit
<0953>

[whence] ye are digged
<05365> (8795)_.

51:2

Look
<05027> (8685)

unto Abraham
<085>

your father
<01>_,

and unto Sarah
<08283>

[that] bare
<02342> (8787)

you: for I called
<07121> (8804)

him alone
<0259>_,

and blessed
<01288> (8762)

him, and increased
<07235> (8686)

him.

51:3

For the LORD
<03068>

shall comfort
<05162> (8765)

Zion
<06726>_:

he will comfort
<05162> (8765)

all her waste places
<02723>_;

and he will make
<07760> (8799)

her wilderness
<04057>

like Eden
<05731>_,

and her desert
<06160>

like the garden
<01588>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

joy
<08342>

and gladness
<08057>

shall be found
<04672> (8735)

therein, thanksgiving
<08426>_,

and the voice
<06963>

of melody
<02172>_.

51:4

Hearken
<07181> (8685)

unto me, my people
<05971>_;

and give ear
<0238> (8685)

unto me, O my nation
<03816>_:

for a law
<08451>

shall proceed
<03318> (8799)

from me, and I will make my judgment
<04941>

to rest
<07280> (8686)

for a light
<0216>

of the people
<05971>_.

51:5

My righteousness
<06664>

[is] near
<07138>_;

my salvation
<03468>

is gone forth
<03318> (8804)_,

and mine arms
<02220>

shall judge
<08199> (8799)

the people
<05971>_;

the isles
<0339>

shall wait
<06960> (8762)

upon me, and on mine arm
<02220>

shall they trust
<03176> (8762)_.

51:6

Lift up
<05375> (8798)

your eyes
<05869>

to the heavens
<08064>_,

and look
<05027> (8685)

upon the earth
<0776>

beneath: for the heavens
<08064>

shall vanish away
<04414> (8738)

like smoke
<06227>_,

and the earth
<0776>

shall wax old
<01086> (8799)

like a garment
<0899>_,

and they that dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein shall die
<04191> (8799)

in like
<03644>

manner
<03654>_:

but my salvation
<03444>

shall be for ever
<05769>_,

and my righteousness
<06666>

shall not be abolished
<02865> (8735)_.

51:7

Hearken
<08085> (8798)

unto me, ye that know
<03045> (8802)

righteousness
<06664>_,

the people
<05971>

in whose heart
<03820>

[is] my law
<08451>_;

fear
<03372> (8799)

ye not the reproach
<02781>

of men
<0582>_,

neither be ye afraid
<02865> (8735)

of their revilings
<01421>_.

51:8

For the moth
<06211>

shall eat them up
<0398> (8799)

like a garment
<0899>_,

and the worm
<05580>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)

them like wool
<06785>_:

but my righteousness
<06666>

shall be for ever
<05769>_,

and my salvation
<03444>

from generation
<01755>

to generation
<01755>_.

51:9

Awake
<05782> (8798)_,

awake
<05782> (8798)_,

put on
<03847> (8798)

strength
<05797>_,

O arm
<02220>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

awake
<05782> (8798)_,

as in the ancient
<06924>

days
<03117>_,

in the generations
<01755>

of old
<05769>_.

[Art] thou not it that hath cut
<02672> (8688)

Rahab
<07294>_,

[and] wounded
<02490> (8781)

the dragon
<08577>_?

51:10

[Art] thou not it which hath dried
<02717> (8688)

the sea
<03220>_,

the waters
<04325>

of the great
<07227>

deep
<08415>_;

that hath made
<07760> (8804)

the depths
<04615>

of the sea
<03220>

a way
<01870>

for the ransomed
<01350> (8803)

to pass over
<05674> (8800)_?

51:11

Therefore the redeemed
<06299> (8803)

of the LORD
<03068>

shall return
<07725> (8799)_,

and come
<0935> (8804)

with singing
<07440>

unto Zion
<06726>_;

and everlasting
<05769>

joy
<08057>

[shall be] upon their head
<07218>_:

they shall obtain
<05381> (8686)

gladness
<08342>

and joy
<08057>_;

[and] sorrow
<03015>

and mourning
<0585>

shall flee away
<05127> (8804)_.

51:12

I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth
<05162> (8764)

you: who [art] thou, that thou shouldest be afraid
<03372> (8799)

of a man
<0582>

[that] shall die
<04191> (8799)_,

and of the son
<01121>

of man
<0120>

[which] shall be made
<05414> (8735)

[as] grass
<02682>_;

51:13

And forgettest
<07911> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

thy maker
<06213> (8802)_,

that hath stretched forth
<05186> (8802)

the heavens
<08064>_,

and laid the foundations
<03245> (8801)

of the earth
<0776>_;

and hast feared
<06342> (8762)

continually
<08548>

every day
<03117>

because
<06440>

of the fury
<02534>

of the oppressor
<06693> (8688)_,

as if
<0834>

he were ready
<03559> (8790)

to destroy
<07843> (8687)_?

and where [is] the fury
<02534>

of the oppressor
<06693> (8688)_?

{were...: or, made himself ready}

51:14

The captive exile
<06808> (8802)

hasteneth
<04116> (8765)

that he may be loosed
<06605> (8736)_,

and that he should not die
<04191> (8799)

in the pit
<07845>_,

nor that his bread
<03899>

should fail
<02637> (8799)_.

51:15

But I [am] the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

that divided
<07280> (8802)

the sea
<03220>_,

whose waves
<01530>

roared
<01993> (8799)_:

The LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

[is] his name
<08034>_.

51:16

And I have put
<07760> (8799)

my words
<01697>

in thy mouth
<06310>_,

and I have covered
<03680> (8765)

thee in the shadow
<06738>

of mine hand
<03027>_,

that I may plant
<05193> (8800)

the heavens
<08064>_,

and lay the foundations
<03245> (8800)

of the earth
<0776>_,

and say
<0559> (8800)

unto Zion
<06726>_,

Thou [art] my people
<05971>_.

51:17

Awake
<05782> (8708)_,

awake
<05782> (8708)_,

stand up
<06965> (8798)_,

O Jerusalem
<03389>_,

which hast drunk
<08354> (8804)

at the hand
<03027>

of the LORD
<03068>

the cup
<03563>

of his fury
<02534>_;

thou hast drunken
<08354> (8804)

the dregs
<06907>

of the cup
<03563>

of trembling
<08653>_,

[and] wrung [them] out
<04680> (8804)_.

51:18

[There is] none to guide
<05095> (8764)

her among all the sons
<01121>

[whom] she hath brought forth
<03205> (8804)_;

neither [is there any] that taketh
<02388> (8688)

her by the hand
<03027>

of all the sons
<01121>

[that] she hath brought up
<01431> (8765)_.

51:19

These two
<08147>

[things] are come
<07122> (8802)

unto thee; who shall be sorry
<05110> (8799)

for thee? desolation
<07701>_,

and destruction
<07667>_,

and the famine
<07458>_,

and the sword
<02719>_:

by whom shall I comfort
<05162> (8762)

thee? {are...: Heb. happened} {destruction: Heb. breaking}

51:20

Thy sons
<01121>

have fainted
<05968> (8795)_,

they lie
<07901> (8804)

at the head
<07218>

of all the streets
<02351>_,

as a wild bull
<08377>

in a net
<04364>_:

they are full
<04392>

of the fury
<02534>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

the rebuke
<01606>

of thy God
<0430>_.

51:21

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

now this, thou afflicted
<06041>_,

and drunken
<07937> (8803)_,

but not with wine
<03196>_:
