Isaiah 66:1-12

66:1

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

The heaven
<08064>

[is] my throne
<03678>_,

and the earth
<0776>

[is] my footstool
<07272> <01916>_:

where [is] the house
<01004>

that ye build
<01129> (8799)

unto me? and where [is] the place
<04725>

of my rest
<04496>_?

66:2

For all those [things] hath mine hand
<03027>

made
<06213> (8804)_,

and all those [things] have been, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

but to this [man] will I look
<05027> (8686)_,

[even] to [him that is] poor
<06041>

and of a contrite
<05223>

spirit
<07307>_,

and trembleth
<02730>

at my word
<01697>_.

66:3

He that killeth
<07819> (8802)

an ox
<07794>

[is as if] he slew
<05221> (8688)

a man
<0376>_;

he that sacrificeth
<02076> (8802)

a lamb
<07716>_,

[as if] he cut off
<06202> (0)

a dog's
<03611>

neck
<06202> (8802)_;

he that offereth
<05927> (8688)

an oblation
<04503>_,

[as if he offered] swine's
<02386>

blood
<01818>_;

he that burneth
<02142> (8688)

incense
<03828>_,

[as if] he blessed
<01288> (8764)

an idol
<0205>_.

Yea, they have chosen
<0977> (8804)

their own ways
<01870>_,

and their soul
<05315>

delighteth
<02654> (8804)

in their abominations
<08251>_.

{lamb: or, kid} {burneth: Heb. maketh a memorial of}

66:4

I also will choose
<0977> (8799)

their delusions
<08586>_,

and will bring
<0935> (8686)

their fears
<04035>

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

none did answer
<06030> (8802)_;

when I spake
<01696> (8765)_,

they did not hear
<08085> (8804)_:

but they did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

before mine eyes
<05869>_,

and chose
<0977> (8804)

[that] in which I delighted
<02654> (8804)

not. {delusions: or, devices}

66:5

Hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

ye that tremble
<02730>

at his word
<01697>_;

Your brethren
<0251>

that hated
<08130> (8802)

you, that cast you out
<05077> (8764)

for my name's
<08034>

sake, said
<0559> (8804)_,

Let the LORD
<03068>

be glorified
<03513> (8799)_:

but he shall appear
<07200> (8737)

to your joy
<08057>_,

and they shall be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_.

66:6

A voice
<06963>

of noise
<07588>

from the city
<05892>_,

a voice
<06963>

from the temple
<01964>_,

a voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

that rendereth
<07999> (8764)

recompence
<01576>

to his enemies
<0341> (8802)_.

66:7

Before she travailed
<02342> (8799)_,

she brought forth
<03205> (8804)_;

before her pain
<02256>

came
<0935> (8799)_,

she was delivered
<04422> (8689)

of a man child
<02145>_.

66:8

Who hath heard
<08085> (8804)

such a thing? who hath seen
<07200> (8804)

such things? Shall the earth
<0776>

be made to bring forth
<02342> (8714)

in one
<0259>

day
<03117>_?

[or] shall a nation
<01471>

be born
<03205> (8735)

at once
<06471>_?

for as soon as
<01571>

Zion
<06726>

travailed
<02342> (8804)_,

she brought forth
<03205> (8804)

her children
<01121>_.

66:9

Shall I bring to the birth
<07665> (8686)_,

and not cause to bring forth
<03205> (8686)_?

saith
<0559> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_:

shall I
<0589>

cause to bring forth
<03205> (8688)_,

and shut
<06113> (8804)

[the womb]? saith
<0559> (8804)

thy God
<0430>_.

{not...: or, not beget?}

66:10

Rejoice
<08055> (8798)

ye with Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and be glad
<01523> (8798)

with her, all ye that love
<0157> (8802)

her: rejoice
<07797> (8798)

for joy
<04885>

with her, all ye that mourn
<056> (8693)

for her:

66:11

That ye may suck
<03243> (8799)_,

and be satisfied
<07646> (8804)

with the breasts
<07699>

of her consolations
<08575>_;

that ye may milk out
<04711> (8799)_,

and be delighted
<06026> (8694)

with the abundance
<02123>

of her glory
<03519>_.

{abundance: or, brightness}

66:12

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Behold, I will extend
<05186> (8802)

peace
<07965>

to her like a river
<05104>_,

and the glory
<03519>

of the Gentiles
<01471>

like a flowing
<07857> (8802)

stream
<05158>_:

then shall ye suck
<03243> (8804)_,

ye shall be borne
<05375> (8735)

upon [her] sides
<06654>_,

and be dandled
<08173> (8746)

upon [her] knees
<01290>_.
