[1]SingH7442[H8798], O barrenH6135, thou that didst not bearH3205[H8804]; break forthH6476[H8798] into singingH7440, and cry aloudH6670[H8761], thou that didst not travail with childH2342[H8804]: for moreH7227 are the childrenH1121 of the desolateH8074[H8802] than the childrenH1121 of the married wifeH1166[H8803], saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068.
[2]EnlargeH7337[H8685] the placeH4725 of thy tentH168, and let them stretch forthH5186[H8686] the curtainsH3407 of thine habitationsH4908: spareH2820[H8799] not, lengthenH748[H8685] thy cordsH4340, and strengthenH2388[H8761] thy stakesH3489;
[3]For thou shalt break forthH6555[H8799] on the right handH3225 and on the leftH8040; and thy seedH2233 shall inheritH3423[H8799] the GentilesH1471, and make the desolateH8074[H8737] citiesH5892 to be inhabitedH3427.[H8686]
[4]FearH3372[H8799] not; for thou shalt not be ashamedH954[H8799]: neither be thou confoundedH3637[H8735]; for thou shalt not be put to shameH2659[H8686]: for thou shalt forgetH7911[H8799] the shameH1322 of thy youthH5934, and shalt not rememberH2142[H8799] the reproachH2781 of thy widowhood any moreH491.
[5]For thy MakerH6213[H8802] is thine husbandH1166[H8802]; the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034; and thy RedeemerH1350[H8802] the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478; The GodH430 of the whole earthH776 shall he be calledH7121.[H8735]
[6]For the LORDH3068 hath calledH7121[H8804] thee as a womanH802 forsakenH5800[H8803] and grievedH6087[H8803] in spiritH7307, and a wifeH802 of youthH5271, when thou wast refusedH3988[H8735], saithH559[H8804] thy GodH430.
[7]For a smallH6996 momentH7281 have I forsakenH5800[H8804] thee; but with greatH1419 merciesH7356 will I gatherH6908 theeH8762.
[8]In a littleH8241 wrathH7110 I hidH5641[H8689] my faceH6440 from thee for a momentH7281; but with everlastingH5769 kindnessH2617 will I have mercyH7355[H8765] on thee, saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 thy RedeemerH1350.[H8802]
[9]For this is as the watersH4325 of NoahH5146 unto me: for as I have swornH7650[H8738] that the watersH4325 of NoahH5146 should no more go overH5674[H8800] the earthH776; so have I swornH7650[H8738] that I would not be wrothH7107[H8800] with thee, nor rebukeH1605 theeH8800.
[10]For the mountainsH2022 shall departH4185[H8799], and the hillsH1389 be removedH4131[H8799]; but my kindnessH2617 shall not departH4185[H8799] from thee, neither shall the covenantH1285 of my peaceH7965 be removedH4131[H8799], saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 that hath mercyH7355 on theeH8764.
[11]O thou afflictedH6041, tossed with tempestH5590[H8802], and not comfortedH5162[H8794], behold, I will layH7257[H8688] thy stonesH68 with fair coloursH6320, and lay thy foundationsH3245[H8804] with sapphiresH5601.
[12]And I will makeH7760[H8804] thy windowsH8121 of agatesH3539, and thy gatesH8179 of carbunclesH68[H688], and all thy bordersH1366 of pleasantH2656 stonesH68.
[13]And all thy childrenH1121 shall be taughtH3928 of the LORDH3068; and greatH7227 shall be the peaceH7965 of thy childrenH1121.
[14]In righteousnessH6666 shalt thou be establishedH3559[H8709]: thou shalt be farH7368[H8798] from oppressionH6233; for thou shalt not fearH3372[H8799]: and from terrorH4288; for it shall not come nearH7126 theeH8799.
[15]Behold, they shall surelyH1481[H8800] gather togetherH1481[H8799], but notH657 by me: whosoeverH4310 shall gather togetherH1481[H8804] against thee shall fallH5307 for thy sakeH8799.
[16]Behold, I have createdH1254[H8804] the smithH2796 that blowethH5301[H8802] the coalsH6352 in the fireH784, and that bringeth forthH3318[H8688] an instrumentH3627 for his workH4639; and I have createdH1254[H8804] the wasterH7843[H8688] to destroyH2254.[H8763]
[17]No weaponH3627 that is formedH3335[H8714] against thee shall prosperH6743[H8799]; and every tongueH3956 that shall riseH6965[H8799] against thee in judgmentH4941 thou shalt condemnH7561[H8686]. This is the heritageH5159 of the servantsH5650 of the LORDH3068, and their righteousnessH6666 is of me, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068.
