ylt @Isaiah:66:1 @Thus said Jehovah : The heavens [are ] My throne , And the earth My footstool , Where [is ] this -- the house that ye build for Me ? And where [is ] this -- the place -- My rest ? ylt @Isaiah:66:2 @And all these My hand hath made , And all these things are , An affirmation of Jehovah ! And unto this one I look attentively , Unto the humble and bruised in spirit , And who is trembling at My word . ylt @Isaiah:66:3 @Whoso slaughtereth the ox smiteth a man , Whoso sacrificeth the lamb beheadeth a dog , Whoso is bringing up a present -- The blood of a sow , Whoso is making mention of frankincense , Is blessing iniquity . Yea , they have fixed on their own ways , And in their abominations their soul hath delighted . ylt @Isaiah:66:4 @I also -- I fix on their vexations , And their fears I bring in to them , Because I have called , and there is none answering , I spake , and they have not hearkened , And they do the evil things in Mine eyes , And on that which I desired not -- fixed . ylt @Isaiah:66:5 @Hear a word of Jehovah , Ye who are trembling unto His word , Said have your brethren who are hating you , Who are driving you out , for My name 's sake : 'Honoured is Jehovah , and we look on your joy ,' But they are ashamed . ylt @Isaiah:66:6 @A voice of noise [is ] from the city , a voice from the temple , The voice of Jehovah , giving recompence to His enemies . ylt @Isaiah:66:7 @Before she is pained she hath brought forth , Before a pang cometh to her , She hath delivered a male . ylt @Isaiah:66:8 @Who hath heard anything like this ? Who hath seen anything like these ? Is earth caused to bring forth in one day ? Born is a nation at once ? For she hath been pained , Zion also hath borne her sons . ylt @Isaiah:66:9 @'Do I bring to the birth , And not cause to bring forth ?' saith Jehovah , 'Am not I He who is causing to beget ? I have also restrained ,' said thy God . ylt @Isaiah:66:10 @Rejoice ye with Jerusalem , And be glad in her , all ye loving her , Rejoice ye with her for joy , All ye are mourning for her , ylt @Isaiah:66:11 @So that ye suck , and have been satisfied , From the breast of her consolations , So that ye wring out , and have delighted yourselves From the abundance of her honour . ylt @Isaiah:66:12 @For thus said Jehovah : 'Lo , I am stretching out to her peace as a river , And as an overflowing stream the honour of nations , And ye have sucked , on the side ye are carried , And on the knees ye are dandled . ylt @Isaiah:66:13 @As one whom his mother comforteth , so do I comfort you , Yea , in Jerusalem ye are comforted . ylt @Isaiah:66:14 @And ye have seen , and rejoiced hath your heart , And your bones as tender grass do flourish , And the hand of Jehovah hath been known unto His servants , And He hath been indignant with His enemies . ylt @Isaiah:66:15 @For , lo , Jehovah in fire cometh , And as a hurricane His chariots , To refresh in fury His anger , And His rebuke in flames of fire . ylt @Isaiah:66:16 @For by fire and by His sword , Doth Jehovah do judgment with all flesh . And many have been Jehovah 's pierced ones .' ylt @Isaiah:66:17 @Those sanctifying and cleansing themselves at the gardens , After Ahad in the midst , Eating flesh of the sow , And of the abomination , and of the mouse , Together are consumed , An affirmation of Jehovah . ylt @Isaiah:66:18 @And I -- their works and their thoughts , I come to gather all the nations and tongues , And they have come and seen My honour . ylt @Isaiah:66:19 @And I have set among them a sign , And have sent out of them those escaping unto the nations , (Tarshish , Pul , and Lud , drawing bow , Tubal and Javan , the isles that are far off ,) Who have not heard My fame , nor seen Mine honour , And they have declared Mine honour among nations . ylt @Isaiah:66:20 @And they have brought all your brethren out of all the nations , A present to Jehovah , On horses , and on chariot , and on litters , And on mules , and on dromedaries , Unto My holy mountain Jerusalem , said Jehovah , As the sons of Israel bring the present in a clean vessel , Into the house of Jehovah . ylt @Isaiah:66:21 @And also of them I take for priests , For Levites , said Jehovah . ylt @Isaiah:66:22 @For , as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making , Are standing before Me , An affirmation of Jehovah ! So remain doth your seed and your name . ylt @Isaiah:66:23 @And it hath been from month to month , And from sabbath to sabbath , Come do all flesh to bow themselves before Me , Said Jehovah . ylt @Isaiah:66:24 @And they have gone forth , And looked on the carcases of the men Who are transgressing against me , For their worm dieth not , And their fire is not quenched , And they have been an abhorrence to all flesh !
