mkjv - Isaiah:1-3

mkjv@Isaiah:1:1 @ The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:2 @ Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth; for the LORD has spoken, I have nursed and brought up sons, and they have rebelled against Me.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:3 @ The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib; [but] Israel does not know; My people do not understand.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:4 @ Woe, sinful nation, a people heavy [with] iniquity, a seed of evildoers, sons who corrupt! They have forsaken the LORD; they have provoked the Holy One of Israel to anger; they have gone away backward.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:5 @ Why should you be stricken any more? You will revolt more and more; the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:6 @ From the sole of the foot even to the head [there is] no soundness in it; [only] a wound and a stripe and a fresh blow; they have not been closed, nor bound up, nor soothed with oil.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:7 @ Your land [is] wasted, your cities burned with fire. Strangers devour your land right before your eyes, and [it is] wasted, as overthrown by strangers.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:8 @ And the daughter of Zion is left a booth in a vineyard, like a hut in a garden of cucumbers, like a besieged city.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:9 @ Except the LORD of hosts had left us a very small remnant, we would be as Sodom; we would be like Gomorrah.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:10 @ Hear the Word of the LORD, rulers of Sodom; give ear to the law of our God, people of Gomorrah.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:11 @ To what purpose [is] the multitude of your sacrifices to Me? says the LORD; I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I do not delight in [the blood of] bulls, or of lambs, or of he-goats.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:12 @ When you come to appear before Me, who has required this at your hand, to trample My courts?

mkjv@Isaiah:1:13 @ Bring no more vain sacrifice; incense is an abomination to Me; the new moon and sabbath, the going to meeting; I cannot endure evil and the assembly!

mkjv@Isaiah:1:14 @ Your new moons and your appointed feasts My soul hates; they are a trouble to Me; I am weary to bear [them].

mkjv@Isaiah:1:15 @ And when you spread out your hands, I will hide My eyes from you; yea, when you make many prayers, I will not hear; your hands are full of blood.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:16 @ Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes; cease to do evil;

mkjv@Isaiah:1:17 @ learn to do good; seek judgment, reprove the oppressor. Judge the orphan, plead for the widow.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:18 @ Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD; though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be like wool.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:19 @ If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land;

mkjv@Isaiah:1:20 @ but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured [with] the sword; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:21 @ How has the faithful city become a harlot? [It was] full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it, but now murderers.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:22 @ Your silver has become dross, your wine mixed with water;

mkjv@Isaiah:1:23 @ your rulers [are] rebellious, and companions of thieves; everyone loves a bribe, and is pursuing rewards; they do not judge the orphan, nor does the cause of the widow come to them.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:24 @ And the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, the mighty One of Israel, says, Alas! I will ease Myself of My foes, and avenge Myself of My enemies.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:25 @ And I will turn back My hand on you, and purge away your dross as with lye, and take away all your alloy.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:26 @ And I will restore your judges as at first, and your counselors as at the beginning; afterwards you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:27 @ Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her returning ones with righteousness.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:28 @ And the downfall of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together; and those who forsake the LORD [shall be] consumed.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:29 @ For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be ashamed for the gardens which you have chosen.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:30 @ For you shall be like an oak whose leaf fades, and like a garden that has no water.

mkjv@Isaiah:1:31 @ And the strong shall be like tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall put [them] out.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:1 @ The Word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:2 @ And it shall be, in the last days the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow into it.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:3 @ And many people shall go and say, Come, and let us go to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. And He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths. For out of Zion shall go out the Law, and the Word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:4 @ And He shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:5 @ O house of Jacob, come and let us walk in the light of the LORD.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:6 @ For You have forsaken Your people the house of Jacob, because they have become full from the east, and [are] fortune-tellers like the Philistines. And they clap their [hands] with the children of strangers.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:7 @ And their land is full of silver and gold. [There is] no end of their treasures and their land is full of horses; nor an end of their chariots.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:8 @ And their land is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:9 @ And the man bowed down, and man was humbled, but You do not lift them up.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:10 @ Enter into the rock and hide in the dust for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of His majesty.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:11 @ The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the pride of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:12 @ For the day of the LORD of hosts [shall be] on every proud and lofty one, and on every lifted up one; and he [shall be] brought low,

mkjv@Isaiah:2:13 @ And it shall be on all the high and lifted up cedars of Lebanon, and on all the oaks of Bashan,

mkjv@Isaiah:2:14 @ and on all the high mountains, and on all the lifted up hills;

mkjv@Isaiah:2:15 @ and on every high tower, and on every fortified wall;

mkjv@Isaiah:2:16 @ and on all the ships of Tarshish, and on all pleasurable craft.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:17 @ And the pride of man shall be bowed down, and the loftiness of men shall be made low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:18 @ And the idols shall completely vanish.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:19 @ And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth for fear of the LORD and for the glory of His majesty, when He arises to shake the earth terribly.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:20 @ In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made for him to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

mkjv@Isaiah:2:21 @ to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD and for the glory of His majesty, when He arises to shake the earth terribly.

mkjv@Isaiah:2:22 @ Cease from man, whose breath [is] in his nostril; for in what is he to be esteemed?

mkjv@Isaiah:3:1 @ For behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, takes away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread and the whole stay of water,

mkjv@Isaiah:3:2 @ the mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,

mkjv@Isaiah:3:3 @ the captain of fifty, and the honorable man, and the adviser, and the skilled worker, and the expert charmer.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:4 @ And I will give young boys [to be] their rulers, and caprices shall rule over them.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:5 @ And the people shall be crushed, every man by another, and every man by his neighbor; the boy shall act proudly against the old man, and the low against the honorable.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:6 @ When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, [saying], You have clothing, you be our ruler, and let this ruin be under your hand;

mkjv@Isaiah:3:7 @ in that day he shall swear, saying, I will not be a healer; there [is] no bread nor a cloak in my house. You shall not make me a ruler of the people.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:8 @ For Jerusalem is ruined and Judah has fallen; because their tongue and their doings [are] against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of His glory.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:9 @ The look of their faces witnesses against them; and they declare their sin like Sodom. They do not hide [it]! Woe to their soul! For they have rewarded evil to themselves.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:10 @ Say to the righteous that [it is] well; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:11 @ Woe to the wicked! For the evil doing of his hand will be done to him.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:12 @ [As for] my people, children [are] their taskmasters, and women rule over them. Oh my people, your rulers cause [you] to go astray and destroy the way of your paths.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:13 @ The LORD stands up to plead His case, and stands up to judge the people.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:14 @ The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of His people, and their kings; for you have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor [is] in your houses.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:15 @ What do you mean? You crush My people and grind the faces of the poor? says the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:16 @ And the LORD says, Because the daughters of Zion are proud, and have walked with stretched out necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing [as] they go, and making a tinkling with their feet;

mkjv@Isaiah:3:17 @ therefore the LORD will strike with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will make their secret parts naked.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:18 @ In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of ankle-bracelets, and the headbands, and the crescents,

mkjv@Isaiah:3:19 @ the pendants, and the bracelets, and the veils;

mkjv@Isaiah:3:20 @ the headdresses, and the leg ornaments, and the sashes, and the houses of the soul, and the amulets;

mkjv@Isaiah:3:21 @ the rings and nose jewels;

mkjv@Isaiah:3:22 @ the festal apparel and the outer garments; and the mantles, and the purses;

mkjv@Isaiah:3:23 @ the mirrors and the fine linen; and the turbans and the veils.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:24 @ And it shall be, instead of sweet smell, there shall be an odor of decay; and instead of a sash, a rope; and instead of well-set hair, baldness; and instead of a rich robe, a wrapping of sackcloth; burning instead of beauty.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:25 @ Your men shall fall by the sword, and your mighty in the war.

mkjv@Isaiah:3:26 @ And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she shall sit deserted on the ground.

mkjv@Isaiah:4:1 @ And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, we will eat our own bread and wear our own clothing; only let us be called by your name, to take away our shame.
