Isaiah 55:1-13

55:1

Ho
<01945>_,

every one that thirsteth
<06771>_,

come
<03212> (8798)

ye to the waters
<04325>_,

and he that hath no money
<03701>_;

come
<03212> (8798)

ye, buy
<07666> (8798)_,

and eat
<0398> (8798)_;

yea, come
<03212> (8798)_,

buy
<07666> (8798)

wine
<03196>

and milk
<02461>

without money
<03701>

and without price
<04242>_.

55:2

Wherefore do ye spend
<08254> (8799)

money
<03701>

for [that which is] not bread
<03899>_?

and your labour
<03018>

for [that which] satisfieth
<07654>

not
<03808>_?

hearken
<08085> (8798)

diligently
<08085> (8800)

unto me, and eat
<0398> (8798)

ye [that which is] good
<02896>_,

and let your soul
<05315>

delight
<06026> (8691)

itself in fatness
<01880>_.

{spend: Heb. weigh}

55:3

Incline
<05186> (8685)

your ear
<0241>_,

and come
<03212> (8798)

unto me: hear
<08085> (8798)_,

and your soul
<05315>

shall live
<02421> (8799)_;

and I will make
<03772> (8799)

an everlasting
<05769>

covenant
<01285>

with you, [even] the sure
<0539> (8737)

mercies
<02617>

of David
<01732>_.

55:4

Behold, I have given
<05414> (8804)

him [for] a witness
<05707>

to the people
<03816>_,

a leader
<05057>

and commander
<06680> (8764)

to the people
<03816>_.

55:5

Behold, thou shalt call
<07121> (8799)

a nation
<01471>

[that] thou knowest
<03045> (8799)

not, and nations
<01471>

[that] knew
<03045> (8804)

not thee shall run
<07323> (8799)

unto thee because of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

and for the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_;

for he hath glorified
<06286> (8765)

thee.

55:6

Seek
<01875> (8798)

ye the LORD
<03068>

while he may be found
<04672> (8736)_,

call
<07121> (8798)

ye upon him while he is near
<07138>_:

55:7

Let the wicked
<07563>

forsake
<05800> (8799)

his way
<01870>_,

and the unrighteous
<0205>

man
<0376>

his thoughts
<04284>_:

and let him return
<07725> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and he will have mercy
<07355> (8762)

upon him; and to our God
<0430>_,

for he will abundantly
<07235> (8686)

pardon
<05545> (8800)_.

{the unrighteous...: Heb. the man of iniquity} {abundantly...: Heb. multiply to pardon}

55:8

For my thoughts
<04284>

[are] not your thoughts
<04284>_,

neither [are] your ways
<01870>

my ways
<01870>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

55:9

For [as] the heavens
<08064>

are higher
<01361> (8804)

than the earth
<0776>_,

so are my ways
<01870>

higher
<01361> (8804)

than your ways
<01870>_,

and my thoughts
<04284>

than your thoughts
<04284>_.

55:10

For as the rain
<01653>

cometh down
<03381> (8799)_,

and the snow
<07950>

from heaven
<08064>_,

and returneth
<07725> (8799)

not thither, but watereth
<07301> (8689)

the earth
<0776>_,

and maketh it bring forth
<03205> (8689)

and bud
<06779> (8689)_,

that it may give
<05414> (8804)

seed
<02233>

to the sower
<02232> (8802)_,

and bread
<03899>

to the eater
<0398> (8802)_:

55:11

So shall my word
<01697>

be that goeth forth
<03318> (8799)

out of my mouth
<06310>_:

it shall not return
<07725> (8799)

unto me void
<07387>_,

but it shall accomplish
<06213> (8804)

that which I please
<02654> (8804)_,

and it shall prosper
<06743> (8689)

[in the thing] whereto I sent
<07971> (8804)

it.

55:12

For ye shall go out
<03318> (8799)

with joy
<08057>_,

and be led forth
<02986> (8714)

with peace
<07965>_:

the mountains
<02022>

and the hills
<01389>

shall break forth
<06476> (8799)

before
<06440>

you into singing
<07440>_,

and all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>

shall clap
<04222> (8799)

[their] hands
<03709>_.

55:13

Instead of the thorn
<05285>

shall come up
<05927> (8799)

the fir tree
<01265>_,

and instead of the brier
<05636>

shall come up
<05927> (8799)

the myrtle tree
<01918>_:

and it shall be to the LORD
<03068>

for a name
<08034>_,

for an everlasting
<05769>

sign
<0226>

[that] shall not be cut off
<03772> (8735)_.
