gltv - Isaiah:21-25

gltv@Isaiah:21:1 @ The burden of the desert of the sea: As tempests in the Negeb pass, it comes from the desert from a terrifying land.

gltv@Isaiah:21:2 @ A harsh vision is revealed to me; the deceiver deals deceitfully, and the plunderer plunders. Go up, O Elam! Besiege, O Media! I have caused all her sighing to cease.

gltv@Isaiah:21:3 @ Because of this my loins are filled with pain; pangs have taken hold on me like the pangs of a travailing woman. I am bowed from hearing; I am troubled from seeing.

gltv@Isaiah:21:4 @ My heart wanders; terror overwhelms me; He has turned the twilight of my pleasure into trembling.

gltv@Isaiah:21:5 @ Prepare the table; watch in the watchtower; eat, drink; rise up, rulers, and anoint the shield.

gltv@Isaiah:21:6 @ For so the Lord has said to me: Go, set a watchman; he will declare what he sees.

gltv@Isaiah:21:7 @ And he sees a chariot, a couple of horsemen; a chariot of an ass; a chariot of a camel; and let him bow attentively, very attentively.

gltv@Isaiah:21:8 @ And he cried, A lion! My lord, I always stand on my watchtower by day; and I am stationed at my post all the nights.

gltv@Isaiah:21:9 @ And, behold, here comes a chariot of a man, a pair of horses. And he answered and said, Babylon has fallen, has fallen! And He has smashed the cut images of her gods to the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:21:10 @ Oh my threshing, and the grain of my floor! That which I have heard of Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, I have told to you.

gltv@Isaiah:21:11 @ The burden of Dumah: He calls to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?

gltv@Isaiah:21:12 @ The watchman says, The morning comes, and also night. If you would inquire, inquire. Come! Return!

gltv@Isaiah:21:13 @ The burden of Arabia: You shall stay in the forest of Arabia, O traveling companies of Dedanites.

gltv@Isaiah:21:14 @ The people of the land of Tema bring water to him who is thirsty; they went to meet the fugitive with his bread.

gltv@Isaiah:21:15 @ For they fled from before swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the press of battle.

gltv@Isaiah:21:16 @ For so the Lord has said to me, Within a year, as the years of a hireling, all the glory of Kedar shall be ended,

gltv@Isaiah:21:17 @ and the rest of the number of the archers, the warriors of the sons of Kedar, shall be few. For Jehovah God of Israel has spoken.

gltv@Isaiah:22:1 @ The burden of the valley of vision: What ails you now, that you have gone up to the housetops?

gltv@Isaiah:22:2 @ Crashings fill the noisy city, the joyous city. Your slain ones are not slain by the sword, nor dead in battle.

gltv@Isaiah:22:3 @ All your rulers fled together; they were bound without the bow; all found in you were bound together; they have fled from afar.

gltv@Isaiah:22:4 @ On account of this I said, look away from me; I will weep bitterly; do not hurry to comfort me over the ruin of the daughter of my people.

gltv@Isaiah:22:5 @ for it is a day of trouble, and of trampling down, and of perplexity, by the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, in the valley of vision; digging down a wall, and crying to the mountain.

gltv@Isaiah:22:6 @ And Persia carried the quiver with a chariot of a man and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.

gltv@Isaiah:22:7 @ And it happened; your choicest valleys were full of chariots; and the horsemen surely set in order at the gate.

gltv@Isaiah:22:8 @ And he removed Judah's covering; and you looked in that day to the armor of the house of the forest.

gltv@Isaiah:22:9 @ You have also seen the breaks in the city of David, that they are many; and you gathered the waters of the lower pool.

gltv@Isaiah:22:10 @ And you have counted the houses of Jerusalem; and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.

gltv@Isaiah:22:11 @ And you made a reservoir between the walls, for the water of the old pool. But you have not looked to its Maker, nor did you see its Former from long ago.

gltv@Isaiah:22:12 @ And in that day the Lord Jehovah of Hosts called to weeping and mourning; and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth.

gltv@Isaiah:22:13 @ Then, lo, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and slaughtering sheep; eating flesh and drinking wine, saying, Eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!

gltv@Isaiah:22:14 @ And Jehovah of Hosts revealed in my ears, Surely this iniquity shall not be covered for you until you die, says the Lord Jehovah of Hosts.

gltv@Isaiah:22:15 @ So says the Lord Jehovah of Hosts, Go! Go to this treasurer, to Shebna who is over the house.

gltv@Isaiah:22:16 @ What is to you here? And who is here to you, that you have carved a tomb for yourself here, as one having cut out his tomb on high, having carved out a home for himself in the rock?

gltv@Isaiah:22:17 @ Behold, Jehovah hurls you with a hurling, O man, and grasps you with a grasping.

gltv@Isaiah:22:18 @ Whirling, He will whirl you like a ball, into a land wide of hands. You shall die there, and there are the chariots of your glory, the shame of your lord's house.

gltv@Isaiah:22:19 @ And I will drive you from your position, and he will pull you from your station.

gltv@Isaiah:22:20 @ And in that day it shall be, even I will call to My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah.

gltv@Isaiah:22:21 @ And I will clothe him with your robe and will fasten your sash on him. And I will give your authority into his hand. And he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

gltv@Isaiah:22:22 @ And the key of the house of David I will lay on his shoulder, so that he opens, and no one shuts; and he shuts, and no one opens.

gltv@Isaiah:22:23 @ And I will drive him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house.

gltv@Isaiah:22:24 @ And they shall hang on him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the offshoots, all small vessels, from vessels of cups even to all vessels of jars.

gltv@Isaiah:22:25 @ In that day, says Jehovah of Hosts, the nail that is driven in the sure place shall be removed, and be cut down, and fall. And the burden that was on it shall be cut off. Jehovah has spoken.

gltv@Isaiah:23:1 @ The burden of Tyre: Howl, ships of Tarshish! For it is ruined, without house, without entrance. It is revealed to them from the land of Kittim.

gltv@Isaiah:23:2 @ Be still, inhabitants of the coast, trader of Sidon crossing the sea; they have filled you.

gltv@Isaiah:23:3 @ And by great waters, the seed of Sihor and the harvest of the river Nile was her revenue; and she a mart of nations.

gltv@Isaiah:23:4 @ Be ashamed, Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the strength of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, I have not nourished young men nor raised up virgins.

gltv@Isaiah:23:5 @ As the report comes to Egypt, so they shall be grieved at the report of Tyre.

gltv@Isaiah:23:6 @ Pass over Tarshish; howl, people of the coast!

gltv@Isaiah:23:7 @ Is this your exulting city from days of her old age? Her own feet carry it far away to stay.

gltv@Isaiah:23:8 @ Who has purposed this against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are rulers, whose traders are the weighty of the earth?

gltv@Isaiah:23:9 @ Jehovah of Hosts has purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring all the honored of the earth into contempt.

gltv@Isaiah:23:10 @ Pass through your land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no more strength.

gltv@Isaiah:23:11 @ He stretched His hand over the sea; He shook kingdoms. Jehovah has made a decree against the merchant city, to destroy its forts.

gltv@Isaiah:23:12 @ And He said, You shall rejoice no more, oppressed one, virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, cross over to Cyprus, even there is no rest to you.

gltv@Isaiah:23:13 @ Behold, the land of the Chaldeans! This people did not exist! Assyria founded it for those who live in the desert. They set up their siege towers; they stripped its palaces. They made it a ruin.

gltv@Isaiah:23:14 @ Howl, ships of Tarshish! For your fortress is ruined.

gltv@Isaiah:23:15 @ And it shall be in that day that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. At the end of seventy years, it will be as the song of a harlot to Tyre.

gltv@Isaiah:23:16 @ Take a harp; go about the city, O forgotten harlot. Do well to play; make many songs, that you may be remembered.

gltv@Isaiah:23:17 @ And it will be, after the end of seventy years, Jehovah will visit Tyre; and she shall return to her hire, and will fornicate with all the kingdoms of the earth, on the face of the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:23:18 @ And her goods and her wages shall be holiness to Jehovah; it shall not be hoarded nor stored; for her goods shall be for those who dwell before Jehovah, to eat enough, and for a choice covering.

gltv@Isaiah:24:1 @ Lo, Jehovah empties the land and makes it bare, and distorts its face, and scatters its inhabitants.

gltv@Isaiah:24:2 @ And as it is with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with the master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor.

gltv@Isaiah:24:3 @ The land shall completely be emptied and utterly stripped, for Jehovah has spoken this word.

gltv@Isaiah:24:4 @ The land mourns and languishes; the world droops and languishes; the proud people of the earth droop.

gltv@Isaiah:24:5 @ And the earth is profaned under its inhabitants, because they transgress laws and violate a statute, and break the everlasting covenant.

gltv@Isaiah:24:6 @ On account of this a curse has devoured the land; and they who live in it are held guilty. For this the dwellers of the land are consumed, and few men are left.

gltv@Isaiah:24:7 @ The new wine has failed; the vine droops; all the merry-hearted sigh.

gltv@Isaiah:24:8 @ The joy of timbrels ceases; the noise of those who revel ends; the joy of the harp ceases.

gltv@Isaiah:24:9 @ They shall not drink wine with a song; fermented drink shall be bitter to those who drink it.

gltv@Isaiah:24:10 @ The city of shame is broken down; every house is shut, that no one may enter.

gltv@Isaiah:24:11 @ A crying over the wine is in the streets; all joy is darkened; the gladness in the land is carried away.

gltv@Isaiah:24:12 @ Desolation is remaining in the city, and a ruin; the gate is battered.

gltv@Isaiah:24:13 @ For it is thus in the midst of the land, among the peoples, it shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as gleanings when the grape harvest is completed.

gltv@Isaiah:24:14 @ They lift up their voice; they sing for the majesty of Jehovah; they cry aloud from the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:24:15 @ On account of this, glorify Jehovah in the flames, the name of Jehovah God of Israel, in the coasts of the sea.

gltv@Isaiah:24:16 @ We have heard songs from the end of the earth, Honor to the Righteous. But I said, Leanness to me! Leanness to me! Woe to me! Traitors betray, even perfidy; traitors betray!

gltv@Isaiah:24:17 @ Dread, and the pit, and a snare are upon you, dweller of the earth.

gltv@Isaiah:24:18 @ And it shall be, he who flees from the sound of dread shall fall into the pit. And he who comes up out of the middle of the pit shall be taken in the snare. For the windows from on high are opened, and the earth's foundations quake.

gltv@Isaiah:24:19 @ The earth is breaking, breaking! The earth is crashing, crashing! The earth is tottering, tottering.

gltv@Isaiah:24:20 @ Like a drunkard, the earth is staggering, staggering! And it rocks to and fro like a hut. And its trespass is heavy on it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

gltv@Isaiah:24:21 @ And it shall be in that day, Jehovah shall punish the army of the high place on high, and on the kings of the land on the land.

gltv@Isaiah:24:22 @ And they will be gathered, a gathering of prisoners in a dungeon. And they shall be shut up in a prison; and after many days they will be visited.

gltv@Isaiah:24:23 @ Then the moon shall blush, and the sun shall be ashamed, when Jehovah of Hosts shall reign in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem; and before His elders is His glory.

gltv@Isaiah:25:1 @ O Jehovah, You are my God. I will exalt You; I will thank Your name; for You have done a wonderful thing: counsels from afar; faithful faithfulness.

gltv@Isaiah:25:2 @ Because You have made a heap from a city, a fortified city into a ruin; a citadel of foreigners not to be a city, not to be built, to forever.

gltv@Isaiah:25:3 @ For this the mighty people glorify You, the city of the ruthless nations shall fear You.

gltv@Isaiah:25:4 @ For You are a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from storm, a shadow from heat; because the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall.

gltv@Isaiah:25:5 @ You shall lay low the noise of foreigners, like the heat in a dry place, the heat with the shadow of cloud; the shouting of the terrifying ones shall be laid low.

gltv@Isaiah:25:6 @ And Jehovah of Hosts shall make a feast of fat things for all the peoples in this mountain; a feast of wine on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, refined wine on the lees.

gltv@Isaiah:25:7 @ And He will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering which covers all people, and the veil that is woven over all nations.

gltv@Isaiah:25:8 @ He will swallow up death in victory! And the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from all faces. And He shall reprove the reproach of His people from all the earth; for Jehovah has spoken

gltv@Isaiah:25:9 @ And one shall say in that day, Behold, this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us. This is Jehovah; we have waited for Him; we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.

gltv@Isaiah:25:10 @ For the hand of Jehovah shall rest in this mountain; and Moab shall be trampled under Him, even as straw is trampled in the water of a dung pit.

gltv@Isaiah:25:11 @ And He shall spread His hands in his midst, as he who swims strokes to swim. And He shall lay low his pride with the skill of His hands.

gltv@Isaiah:25:12 @ And He shall bow down the fortress of the height of your walls; He will lay low, touch to the earth, even to the dust.

gltv@Isaiah:26:1 @ In that day this song shall be sung in the land of Judah: A strong city is ours; He sets up salvation as our walls and rampart.
