Isaiah:65:11-25
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But ye are they that forsake the LORD ,
that forget my holy mountain ,
that prepare a table for that troop ,
and that furnish the drink offering unto that number .
*
Therefore will I number you to the sword ,
and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter :
because when I called ,
ye did not answer ;
when I spake ,
ye did not hear ;
but did evil before mine eyes ,
and did choose that wherein I delighted not .
*
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD ,
Behold ,
my servants shall eat ,
but ye shall be hungry :
behold ,
my servants shall drink ,
but ye shall be thirsty :
behold ,
my servants shall rejoice ,
but ye shall be ashamed :
*
Behold ,
my servants shall sing for joy of heart ,
but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart ,
and shall howl for vexation of spirit .
*
And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen :
for the Lord GOD shall slay thee ,
and call his servants by another name :
*
That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth ;
and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth ;
because the former troubles are forgotten ,
and because they are hid from mine eyes .
*
For ,
behold ,
I create new heavens and a new earth :
and the former shall not be remembered ,
nor come into mind .
*
But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create :
for ,
behold ,
I create Jerusalem a rejoicing ,
and her people a joy .
*
And I will rejoice in Jerusalem ,
and joy in my people :
and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her ,
nor the voice of crying za #
aq #.
*
There shall be no more thence an infant of days ,
nor an old man that hath not filled his days :
for the child shall die an hundred years old ;
but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed .
*
And they shall build houses ,
and inhabit them ;
and they shall plant vineyards ,
and eat the fruit of them .
*
They shall not build ,
and another inhabit ;
they shall not plant ,
and another eat :
for as the days of a tree are the days of my people ,
and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands .
*
They shall not labour in vain ,
nor bring forth for trouble ;
for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD ,
and their offspring with them .
*
And it shall come to pass ,
that before they call ,
I will answer ;
and while they are yet speaking ,
I will hear .
*
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together ,
and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock :
and dust shall be the serpents meat .
They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain ,
saith the LORD .
