Isaiah 63:1--65:16

63:1

Who [is] this that cometh
<0935> (8802)

from Edom
<0123>_,

with dyed
<02556> (8803)

garments
<0899>

from Bozrah
<01224>_?

this [that is] glorious
<01921> (8803)

in his apparel
<03830>_,

travelling
<06808> (8802)

in the greatness
<07230>

of his strength
<03581>_?

I that speak
<01696> (8764)

in righteousness
<06666>_,

mighty
<07227>

to save
<03467> (8687)_.

{glorious: Heb. decked}

63:2

Wherefore [art thou] red
<0122>

in thine apparel
<03830>_,

and thy garments
<0899>

like him that treadeth
<01869> (8802)

in the winefat
<01660>_?

63:3

I have trodden
<01869> (8804)

the winepress
<06333>

alone; and of the people
<05971>

[there was] none
<0376>

with me: for I will tread
<01869> (8799)

them in mine anger
<0639>_,

and trample
<07429> (8799)

them in my fury
<02534>_;

and their blood
<05332>

shall be sprinkled
<05137> (8799)

upon my garments
<0899>_,

and I will stain
<01351> (8689)

all my raiment
<04403>_.

63:4

For the day
<03117>

of vengeance
<05359>

[is] in mine heart
<03820>_,

and the year
<08141>

of my redeemed
<01350> (8803)

is come
<0935> (8804)_.

63:5

And I looked
<05027> (8686)_,

and [there was] none to help
<05826> (8802)_;

and I wondered
<08074> (8709)

that [there was] none to uphold
<05564> (8802)_:

therefore mine own arm
<02220>

brought salvation
<03467> (8686)

unto me; and my fury
<02534>_,

it upheld
<05564> (8804)

me.

63:6

And I will tread down
<0947> (8799)

the people
<05971>

in mine anger
<0639>_,

and make them drunk
<07937> (8762)

in my fury
<02534>_,

and I will bring down
<03381> (8686)

their strength
<05332>

to the earth
<0776>_.

63:7

I will mention
<02142> (8686)

the lovingkindnesses
<02617>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

[and] the praises
<08416>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

according to all that the LORD
<03068>

hath bestowed
<01580> (8804)

on us, and the great
<07227>

goodness
<02898>

toward the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which he hath bestowed
<01580> (8804)

on them according to his mercies
<07356>_,

and according to the multitude
<07230>

of his lovingkindnesses
<02617>_.

63:8

For he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely they [are] my people
<05971>_,

children
<01121>

[that] will not lie
<08266> (8762)_:

so he was their Saviour
<03467> (8688)_.

63:9

In all their affliction
<06869>

he was afflicted
<06862>_,

and the angel
<04397>

of his presence
<06440>

saved
<03467> (8689)

them: in his love
<0160>

and in his pity
<02551>

he redeemed
<01350> (8804)

them; and he bare
<05190> (8762)

them, and carried
<05375> (8762)

them all the days
<03117>

of old
<05769>_.

63:10

But they rebelled
<04784> (8804)_,

and vexed
<06087> (8765)

his holy
<06944>

Spirit
<07307>_:

therefore he was turned
<02015> (8735)

to be their enemy
<0341> (8802)_,

[and] he fought
<03898> (8738)

against them.

63:11

Then he remembered
<02142> (8799)

the days
<03117>

of old
<05769>_,

Moses
<04872>_,

[and] his people
<05971>_,

[saying], Where [is] he that brought them up
<05927> (8688)

out of the sea
<03220>

with the shepherd
<07462> (8802)

of his flock
<06629>_?

where [is] he that put
<07760> (8802)

his holy
<06944>

Spirit
<07307>

within
<07130>

him? {shepherd: or, shepherds}

63:12

That led
<03212> (8688)

[them] by the right hand
<03225>

of Moses
<04872>

with his glorious
<08597>

arm
<02220>_,

dividing
<01234> (8802)

the water
<04325>

before
<06440>

them, to make
<06213> (8800)

himself an everlasting
<05769>

name
<08034>_?

63:13

That led
<03212> (8688)

them through the deep
<08415>_,

as an horse
<05483>

in the wilderness
<04057>_,

[that] they should not stumble
<03782> (8735)_?

63:14

As a beast
<0929>

goeth down
<03381> (8799)

into the valley
<01237>_,

the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

caused him to rest
<05117> (8686)_:

so didst thou lead
<05090> (8765)

thy people
<05971>_,

to make
<06213> (8800)

thyself a glorious
<08597>

name
<08034>_.

63:15

Look down
<05027> (8685)

from heaven
<08064>_,

and behold
<07200> (8798)

from the habitation
<02073>

of thy holiness
<06944>

and of thy glory
<08597>_:

where [is] thy zeal
<07068>

and thy strength
<01369>_,

the sounding
<01995>

of thy bowels
<04578>

and of thy mercies
<07356>

toward me? are they restrained
<0662> (8694)_?

{the sounding: or, the multitude}

63:16

Doubtless
<03588>

thou [art] our father
<01>_,

though Abraham
<085>

be ignorant
<03808> <03045> (8804)

of us, and Israel
<03478>

acknowledge
<05234> (8686)

us not: thou, O LORD
<03068>_,

[art] our father
<01>_,

our redeemer
<01350> (8802)_;

thy name
<08034>

[is] from everlasting
<05769>_.

{our redeemer...: or, our redeemer from everlasting is thy name}

63:17

O LORD
<03068>_,

why hast thou made us to err
<08582> (8686)

from thy ways
<01870>_,

[and] hardened
<07188> (8686)

our heart
<03820>

from thy fear
<03374>_?

Return
<07725> (8798)

for thy servants
<05650>_'

sake, the tribes
<07626>

of thine inheritance
<05159>_.

63:18

The people
<05971>

of thy holiness
<06944>

have possessed
<03423> (8804)

[it] but a little while
<04705>_:

our adversaries
<06862>

have trodden down
<0947> (8790)

thy sanctuary
<04720>_.

63:19

We are [thine]: thou never
<05769>

barest rule
<04910> (8804)

over them; they were not called
<07121> (8738)

by thy name
<08034>_.

{they...: Heb. thy name was not called upon them}

64:1

Oh
<03863>

that thou wouldest rend
<07167> (8804)

the heavens
<08064>_,

that thou wouldest come down
<03381> (8804)_,

that the mountains
<02022>

might flow down
<02151> (8738)

at thy presence
<06440>_,

64:2

As [when] the melting
<02003>

fire
<0784>

burneth
<06919> (8800)_,

the fire
<0784>

causeth the waters
<04325>

to boil
<01158> (8799)_,

to make thy name
<08034>

known
<03045> (8687)

to thine adversaries
<06862>_,

[that] the nations
<01471>

may tremble
<07264> (8799)

at thy presence
<06440>_!

{the melting...: Heb. the fire of meltings}

64:3

When thou didst
<06213> (8800)

terrible things
<03372> (8737)

[which] we looked
<06960> (8762)

not for, thou camest down
<03381> (8804)_,

the mountains
<02022>

flowed down
<02151> (8738)

at thy presence
<06440>_.

64:4

For since the beginning of the world
<05769>

[men] have not heard
<08085> (8804)_,

nor perceived by the ear
<0238> (8689)_,

neither hath the eye
<05869>

seen
<07200> (8804)_,

O God
<0430>_,

beside
<02108>

thee, [what] he hath prepared
<06213> (8799)

for him that waiteth
<02442> (8764)

for him. {seen...: or, seen a God beside thee, which doeth so for him, etc}

64:5

Thou meetest
<06293> (8804)

him that rejoiceth
<07797> (8801)

and worketh
<06213> (8802)

righteousness
<06664>_,

[those that] remember
<02142> (8799)

thee in thy ways
<01870>_:

behold, thou art wroth
<07107> (8804)_;

for we have sinned
<02398> (8799)_:

in those is continuance
<05769>_,

and we shall be saved
<03467> (8735)_.

64:6

But we are all as an unclean
<02931>

[thing], and all our righteousnesses
<06666>

[are] as filthy
<05708>

rags
<0899>_;

and we all do fade
<05034> (8799) (8676) <01101> (8686)

as a leaf
<05929>_;

and our iniquities
<05771>_,

like the wind
<07307>_,

have taken us away
<05375> (8799)_.

64:7

And [there is] none that calleth
<07121> (8802)

upon thy name
<08034>_,

that stirreth up
<05782> (8711)

himself to take hold
<02388> (8687)

of thee: for thou hast hid
<05641> (8689)

thy face
<06440>

from us, and hast consumed
<04127> (8799)

us, because
<03027>

of our iniquities
<05771>_.

{consumed: Heb. melted} {because: Heb. by the hand}

64:8

But now, O LORD
<03068>_,

thou [art] our father
<01>_;

we [are] the clay
<02563>_,

and thou our potter
<03335> (8802)_;

and we all [are] the work
<04639>

of thy hand
<03027>_.

64:9

Be not wroth
<07107> (8799)

very sore
<03966>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

neither remember
<02142> (8799)

iniquity
<05771>

for ever
<05703>_:

behold, see
<05027> (8685)_,

we beseech thee, we [are] all thy people
<05971>_.

64:10

Thy holy
<06944>

cities
<05892>

are a wilderness
<04057>_,

Zion
<06726>

is a wilderness
<04057>_,

Jerusalem
<03389>

a desolation
<08077>_.

64:11

Our holy
<06944>

and our beautiful
<08597>

house
<01004>_,

where our fathers
<01>

praised
<01984> (8765)

thee, is burned up
<08316>

with fire
<0784>_:

and all our pleasant things
<04261>

are laid waste
<02723>_.

64:12

Wilt thou refrain
<0662> (8691)

thyself for these [things], O LORD
<03068>_?

wilt thou hold thy peace
<02814> (8799)_,

and afflict
<06031> (8762)

us very sore
<03966>_?

65:1

I am sought
<01875> (8738)

of [them that] asked
<07592> (8804)

not
<03808>

[for me]; I am found
<04672> (8738)

of [them that] sought
<01245> (8765)

me not
<03808>_:

I said
<0559> (8804)_,

Behold me, behold me, unto a nation
<01471>

[that] was not called
<07121> (8795)

by my name
<08034>_.

65:2

I have spread out
<06566> (8765)

my hands
<03027>

all the day
<03117>

unto a rebellious
<05637> (8802)

people
<05971>_,

which walketh
<01980> (8802)

in a way
<01870>

[that was] not good
<02896>_,

after
<0310>

their own thoughts
<04284>_;

65:3

A people
<05971>

that provoketh me to anger
<03707> (8688)

continually
<08548>

to my face
<06440>_;

that sacrificeth
<02076> (8802)

in gardens
<01593>_,

and burneth incense
<06999> (8764)

upon altars of brick
<03843>_;

{upon...: Heb. upon bricks}

65:4

Which remain
<03427> (8802)

among the graves
<06913>_,

and lodge
<03885> (8799)

in the monuments
<05341> (8803)_,

which eat
<0398> (8802)

swine's
<02386>

flesh
<01320>_,

and broth
<04839> (8675) <06564>

of abominable
<06292>

[things is in] their vessels
<03627>_;

{broth: or, pieces}

65:5

Which say
<0559> (8802)_,

Stand
<07126> (8798)

by thyself, come not near
<05066> (8799)

to me; for I am holier
<06942> (8804)

than thou. These [are] a smoke
<06227>

in my nose
<0639>_,

a fire
<0784>

that burneth
<03344> (8802)

all the day
<03117>_.

{nose: or, anger}

65:6

Behold, [it is] written
<03789> (8803)

before
<06440>

me: I will not keep silence
<02814> (8799)_,

but will recompense
<07999> (8765)_,

even recompense
<07999> (8765)

into their bosom
<02436>_,

65:7

Your iniquities
<05771>_,

and the iniquities
<05771>

of your fathers
<01>

together
<03162>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

which have burned incense
<06999> (8765)

upon the mountains
<02022>_,

and blasphemed
<02778> (8765)

me upon the hills
<01389>_:

therefore will I measure
<04058> (8804)

their former
<07223>

work
<06468>

into their bosom
<02436>_.

65:8

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

As the new wine
<08492>

is found
<04672> (8735)

in the cluster
<0811>_,

and [one] saith
<0559> (8804)_,

Destroy
<07843> (8686)

it not; for a blessing
<01293>

[is] in it: so will I do
<06213> (8799)

for my servants
<05650>_'

sakes, that I may not destroy
<07843> (8687)

them all.

65:9

And I will bring forth
<03318> (8689)

a seed
<02233>

out of Jacob
<03290>_,

and out of Judah
<03063>

an inheritor
<03423> (8802)

of my mountains
<02022>_:

and mine elect
<0972>

shall inherit
<03423> (8804)

it, and my servants
<05650>

shall dwell
<07931> (8799)

there.

65:10

And Sharon
<08289>

shall be a fold
<05116>

of flocks
<06629>_,

and the valley
<06010>

of Achor
<05911>

a place for the herds
<01241>

to lie down in
<07258>_,

for my people
<05971>

that have sought
<01875> (8804)

me.

65:11

But ye [are] they that forsake
<05800> (8802)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that forget
<07913>

my holy
<06944>

mountain
<02022>_,

that prepare
<06186> (8802)

a table
<07979>

for that troop
<01409> (8677) <01408>_,

and that furnish
<04390> (8764)

the drink offering
<04469>

unto that number
<04507>_.

{troop: or, Gad} {number: or, Meni, a pagan god}

65:12

Therefore will I number
<04487> (8804)

you to the sword
<02719>_,

and ye shall all bow down
<03766> (8799)

to the slaughter
<02874>_:

because when I called
<07121> (8804)_,

ye did not answer
<06030> (8804)_;

when I spake
<01696> (8765)_,

ye did not hear
<08085> (8804)_;

but did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

before mine eyes
<05869>_,

and did choose
<0977> (8804)

[that] wherein I delighted
<02654> (8804)

not.

65:13

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_,

Behold, my servants
<05650>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)_,

but ye shall be hungry
<07456> (8799)_:

behold, my servants
<05650>

shall drink
<08354> (8799)_,

but ye shall be thirsty
<06770> (8799)_:

behold, my servants
<05650>

shall rejoice
<08055> (8799)_,

but ye shall be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_:

65:14

Behold, my servants
<05650>

shall sing
<07442> (8799)

for joy
<02898>

of heart
<03820>_,

but ye shall cry
<06817> (8799)

for sorrow
<03511>

of heart
<03820>_,

and shall howl
<03213> (8686)

for vexation
<07667>

of spirit
<07307>_.

{vexation: Heb. breaking}

65:15

And ye shall leave
<03240> (8689)

your name
<08034>

for a curse
<07621>

unto my chosen
<0972>_:

for the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

shall slay
<04191> (8689)

thee, and call
<07121> (8799)

his servants
<05650>

by another
<0312>

name
<08034>_:

65:16

That he who blesseth
<01288> (8693)

himself in the earth
<0776>

shall bless
<01288> (8691)

himself in the God
<0430>

of truth
<0543>_;

and he that sweareth
<07650> (8737)

in the earth
<0776>

shall swear
<07650> (8735)

by the God
<0430>

of truth
<0543>_;

because the former
<07223>

troubles
<06869>

are forgotten
<07911> (8738)_,
