| [1]HearkenH8085[H8798] to me, ye that follow afterH7291[H8802] righteousnessH6664, ye that seekH1245[H8764] the LORDH3068: lookH5027[H8685] unto the rockH6697 whence ye are hewnH2672[H8795], and to the holeH4718 of the pitH953 whence ye are diggedH5365.[H8795] |
[1]Hearken to Me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; look unto the rock whence ye were hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye were digged. |
| [2]LookH5027[H8685] unto AbrahamH85 your fatherH1, and unto SarahH8283 that bareH2342[H8787] you: for I calledH7121[H8804] him aloneH259, and blessedH1288[H8762] him, and increasedH7235 himH8686. |
[2]Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bore you; for when he was but one I called him, and I blessed him, and made him many. |
| [3]For the LORDH3068 shall comfortH5162[H8765] ZionH6726: he will comfortH5162[H8765] all her waste placesH2723; and he will makeH7760[H8799] her wildernessH4057 like EdenH5731, and her desertH6160 like the gardenH1588 of the LORDH3068; joyH8342 and gladnessH8057 shall be foundH4672[H8735] therein, thanksgivingH8426, and the voiceH6963 of melodyH2172. |
[3]For 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 hath comforted Zion; He hath comforted all her waste places, and hath made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody. |
| [4]HearkenH7181[H8685] unto me, my peopleH5971; and give earH238[H8685] unto me, O my nationH3816: for a lawH8451 shall proceedH3318[H8799] from me, and I will make my judgmentH4941 to restH7280[H8686] for a lightH216 of the peopleH5971. |
[4]Attend unto Me, O My people, and give ear unto Me, O My nation; for instruction shall go forth from Me, and My right on a sudden for a light of the peoples. |
| [5]My righteousnessH6664 is nearH7138; my salvationH3468 is gone forthH3318[H8804], and mine armsH2220 shall judgeH8199[H8799] the peopleH5971; the islesH339 shall waitH6960[H8762] upon me, and on mine armH2220 shall they trustH3176.[H8762] |
[5]My favour is near, My salvation is gone forth, and Mine arms shall judge the peoples; the isles shall wait for Me, and on Mine arm shall they trust. |
| [6]Lift upH5375[H8798] your eyesH5869 to the heavensH8064, and lookH5027[H8685] upon the earthH776 beneath: for the heavensH8064 shall vanish awayH4414[H8738] like smokeH6227, and the earthH776 shall wax oldH1086[H8799] like a garmentH899, and they that dwellH3427[H8802] therein shall dieH4191[H8799] in likeH3644 mannerH3654: but my salvationH3444 shall be for everH5769, and my righteousnessH6666 shall not be abolishedH2865.[H8735] |
[6]Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath; for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner; but My salvation shall be for ever, and My favour shall not be abolished. |
| [7]HearkenH8085[H8798] unto me, ye that knowH3045[H8802] righteousnessH6664, the peopleH5971 in whose heartH3820 is my lawH8451; fearH3372[H8799] ye not the reproachH2781 of menH582, neither be ye afraidH2865[H8735] of their revilingsH1421. |
[7]Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is My law; fear ye not the taunt of men, neither be ye dismayed at their revilings. |
| [8]For the mothH6211 shall eat them upH398[H8799] like a garmentH899, and the wormH5580 shall eatH398[H8799] them like woolH6785: but my righteousnessH6666 shall be for everH5769, and my salvationH3444 from generationH1755 to generationH1755. |
[8]For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool; but My favour shall be for ever, and My salvation unto all generations. |
| [9]AwakeH5782[H8798], awakeH5782[H8798], put onH3847[H8798] strengthH5797, O armH2220 of the LORDH3068; awakeH5782[H8798], as in the ancientH6924 daysH3117, in the generationsH1755 of oldH5769. Art thou not it that hath cutH2672[H8688] RahabH7294, and woundedH2490[H8781] the dragonH8577? |
[9]Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Art thou not it that hewed Rahab in pieces, that pierced the dragon? |
| [10]Art thou not it which hath driedH2717[H8688] the seaH3220, the watersH4325 of the greatH7227 deepH8415; that hath madeH7760[H8804] the depthsH4615 of the seaH3220 a wayH1870 for the ransomedH1350[H8803] to pass overH5674?[H8800] |
[10]Art thou not it that dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; that made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over? |
| [11]Therefore the redeemedH6299[H8803] of the LORDH3068 shall returnH7725[H8799], and comeH935[H8804] with singingH7440 unto ZionH6726; and everlastingH5769 joyH8057 shall be upon their headH7218: they shall obtainH5381[H8686] gladnessH8342 and joyH8057; and sorrowH3015 and mourningH585 shall flee awayH5127.[H8804] |
[11]And the ransomed of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 shall return, and come with singing unto Zion, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. |
| [12]I, even I, am he that comfortethH5162[H8764] you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraidH3372[H8799] of a manH582 that shall dieH4191[H8799], and of the sonH1121 of manH120 which shall be madeH5414[H8735] as grassH2682; |
[12]I, even I, am He that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou art afraid of man that shall die, and of the son of man that shall be made as grass; |
| [13]And forgettestH7911[H8799] the LORDH3068 thy makerH6213[H8802], that hath stretched forthH5186[H8802] the heavensH8064, and laid the foundationsH3245[H8801] of the earthH776; and hast fearedH6342[H8762] continuallyH8548 every dayH3117 becauseH6440 of the furyH2534 of the oppressorH6693[H8688], as ifH834 he were readyH3559[H8790] to destroyH7843[H8687]? and where is the furyH2534 of the oppressorH6693?[H8688] |
[13]And hast forgotten 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 thy Maker, that stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and fearest continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, as he maketh ready to destroy? And where is the fury of the oppressor? |
| [14]The captive exileH6808[H8802] hastenethH4116[H8765] that he may be loosedH6605[H8736], and that he should not dieH4191[H8799] in the pitH7845, nor that his breadH3899 should failH2637.[H8799] |
[14]He that is bent down shall speedily be loosed; and he shall not go down dying into the pit, neither shall his bread fail. |
| [15]But I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, that dividedH7280[H8802] the seaH3220, whose wavesH1530 roaredH1993[H8799]: The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034. |
[15]For I am 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 thy God, who stirreth up the sea, that the waves thereof roar; 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 of hosts is His name. |
| [16]And I have putH7760[H8799] my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310, and I have coveredH3680[H8765] thee in the shadowH6738 of mine handH3027, that I may plantH5193[H8800] the heavensH8064, and lay the foundationsH3245[H8800] of the earthH776, and sayH559[H8800] unto ZionH6726, Thou art my peopleH5971. |
[16]And I have put My words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shadow of My hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion: 'Thou art My people.' |
| [17]AwakeH5782[H8708], awakeH5782[H8708], stand upH6965[H8798], O JerusalemH3389, which hast drunkH8354[H8804] at the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 the cupH3563 of his furyH2534; thou hast drunkenH8354[H8804] the dregsH6907 of the cupH3563 of tremblingH8653, and wrung them outH4680.[H8804] |
[17]Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, that hast drunk at the hand of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 the cup of His fury; thou hast drunken the beaker, even the cup of staggering, and drained it. |
| [18]There is none to guideH5095[H8764] her among all the sonsH1121 whom she hath brought forthH3205[H8804]; neither is there any that takethH2388[H8688] her by the handH3027 of all the sonsH1121 that she hath brought upH1431.[H8765] |
[18]There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up. |
| [19]These twoH8147 things are comeH7122[H8802] unto thee; who shall be sorryH5110[H8799] for thee? desolationH7701, and destructionH7667, and the famineH7458, and the swordH2719: by whom shall I comfortH5162 theeH8762? |
[19]These two things are befallen thee; who shall bemoan thee? desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword; how shall I comfort thee? |
| [20]Thy sonsH1121 have faintedH5968[H8795], they lieH7901[H8804] at the headH7218 of all the streetsH2351, as a wild bullH8377 in a netH4364: they are fullH4392 of the furyH2534 of the LORDH3068, the rebukeH1606 of thy GodH430. |
[20]Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as an antelope in a net; they are full of the fury of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, the rebuke of thy God. |
| [21]Therefore hearH8085[H8798] now this, thou afflictedH6041, and drunkenH7937[H8803], but not with wineH3196: |
[21]Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine; |
| [22]Thus saithH559[H8804] thy LordH113 the LORDH3068, and thy GodH430 that pleadethH7378[H8799] the cause of his peopleH5971, Behold, I have taken outH3947[H8804] of thine handH3027 the cupH3563 of tremblingH8653, even the dregsH6907 of the cupH3563 of my furyH2534; thou shalt no moreH3254[H8686] drink it againH8354:[H8800] |
[22]Thus saith thy Lord 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering; the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again; |
| [23]But I will putH7760[H8804] it into the handH3027 of them that afflictH3013[H8688] thee; which have saidH559[H8804] to thy soulH5315, Bow downH7812[H8798], that we may go overH5674[H8799]: and thou hast laidH7760[H8799] thy bodyH1460 as the groundH776, and as the streetH2351, to them that went overH5674.[H8802] |
[23]And I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; that have said to thy soul: 'Bow down, that we may go over'; and thou hast laid thy back as the ground, and as the street, to them that go over. |
