Isaiah 65:1-19

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)_,

and because they are hid
<05641> (8738)

from mine eyes
<05869>_.

65:17

For, behold, I create
<01254> (8802)

new
<02319>

heavens
<08064>

and a new
<02319>

earth
<0776>_:

and the former
<07223>

shall not be remembered
<02142> (8735)_,

nor come
<05927> (8799)

into mind
<03820>_.

{come...: Heb. come upon the heart}

65:18

But be ye glad
<07797> (8798)

and rejoice
<01523> (8798)

for ever
<05703>

[in that] which I create
<01254> (8802)_:

for, behold, I create
<01254> (8802)

Jerusalem
<03389>

a rejoicing
<01525>_,

and her people
<05971>

a joy
<04885>_.

65:19

And I will rejoice
<01523> (8804)

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and joy
<07797> (8804)

in my people
<05971>_:

and the voice
<06963>

of weeping
<01065>

shall be no more heard
<08085> (8735)

in her, nor the voice
<06963>

of crying
<02201>_.
