Isaiah:1:2 @ Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth! For the LORD has spoken: "I have nourished and brought up children, And they have rebelled against Me;
nkjv@Isaiah:1:4 @ Alas, sinful nation, A people laden with iniquity, A brood of evildoers, Children who are corrupters! They have forsaken the LORD, They have provoked to anger The Holy One of Israel, They have turned away backward.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:12 @ "When you come to appear before Me, Who has required this from your hand, To trample My courts?
nkjv@Isaiah:1:16 @ "Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes. Cease to do evil,
nkjv@Isaiah:1:17 @ Learn to do good; Seek justice, Rebuke the oppressor; Defend the fatherless, Plead for the widow.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:20 @ But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devoured by the sword"; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:23 @ Your princes are rebellious, And companions of thieves; Everyone loves bribes, And follows after rewards. They do not defend the fatherless, Nor does the cause of the widow come before them.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:24 @ Therefore the Lord says, The LORD of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, "Ah, I will rid Myself of My adversaries, And take vengeance on My enemies.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:28 @ The destruction of transgressors and of sinners shall be together, And those who forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:29 @ For they shall be ashamed of the terebinth trees Which you have desired; And you shall be embarrassed because of the gardens Which you have chosen.
nkjv@Isaiah:1:30 @ For you shall be as a terebinth whose leaf fades, And as a garden that has no water.
nkjv@Isaiah:2:3 @ Many people shall come and say, "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths." For out of Zion shall go forth the law, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
nkjv@Isaiah:2:6 @ For You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob, Because they are filled with eastern ways; They are soothsayers like the Philistines, And they are pleased with the children of foreigners.
nkjv@Isaiah:2:9 @ People bow down, And each man humbles himself; Therefore do not forgive them.
nkjv@Isaiah:2:12 @ For the day of the LORD of hosts Shall come upon everything proud and lofty, Upon everything lifted up-- And it shall be brought low--
nkjv@Isaiah:2:15 @ Upon every high tower, And upon every fortified wall;
nkjv@Isaiah:2:20 @ In that day a man will cast away his idols of silver And his idols of gold, Which they made, each for himself to worship, To the moles and bats,
nkjv@Isaiah:2:22 @ Sever yourselves from such a man, Whose breath is in his nostrils; For of what account is he?
nkjv@Isaiah:3:1 @ For behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, Takes away from Jerusalem and from Judah The stock and the store, The whole supply of bread and the whole supply of water;
nkjv@Isaiah:3:7 @ In that day he will protest, saying, "I cannot cure your ills, For in my house is neither food nor clothing; Do not make me a ruler of the people."
nkjv@Isaiah:3:8 @ For Jerusalem stumbled, And Judah is fallen, Because their tongue and their doings Are against the LORD, To provoke the eyes of His glory.
nkjv@Isaiah:3:9 @ The look on their countenance witnesses against them, And they declare their sin as Sodom; They do not hide it. Woe to their soul! For they have brought evil upon themselves.
nkjv@Isaiah:3:10 @ "Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, For they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
nkjv@Isaiah:3:11 @ Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with him, For the reward of his hands shall be given him.

nkjv@Isaiah:3:14 @ The LORD will enter into judgment With the elders of His people And His princes: "For you have eaten up the vineyard; The plunder of the poor is in your houses.
nkjv@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 uncover their secret parts."
nkjv@Isaiah:4:2 @ In that day the Branch of the LORD shall be beautiful and glorious; And the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and appealing For those of Israel who have escaped.
nkjv@Isaiah:4:5 @ then the LORD will create above every dwelling place of Mount Zion, and above her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night. For over all the glory there will be a covering.
nkjv@Isaiah:4:6 @ And there will be a tabernacle for shade in the daytime from the heat, for a place of refuge, and for a shelter from storm and rain.
nkjv@Isaiah:5:2 @ He dug it up and cleared out its stones, And planted it with the choicest vine. He built a tower in its midst, And also made a winepress in it; So He expected it to bring forth good grapes, But it brought forth wild grapes.
nkjv@Isaiah:5:4 @ What more could have been done to My vineyard That I have not done in it? Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes, Did it bring forth wild grapes?
nkjv@Isaiah:5:7 @ For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah are His pleasant plant. He looked for justice, but behold, oppression; For righteousness, but behold, a cry for help.
nkjv@Isaiah:5:10 @ For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, And a homer of seed shall yield one ephah."
nkjv@Isaiah:5:13 @ Therefore my people have gone into captivity, Because they have no knowledge; Their honorable men are famished, And their multitude dried up with thirst.
nkjv@Isaiah:5:14 @ Therefore Sheol has enlarged itself And opened its mouth beyond measure; Their glory and their multitude and their pomp, And he who is jubilant, shall descend into it.
nkjv@Isaiah:5:20 @ Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
nkjv@Isaiah:5:22 @ Woe to men mighty at drinking wine, Woe to men valiant for mixing intoxicating drink,
nkjv@Isaiah:5:23 @ Who justify the wicked for a bribe, And take away justice from the righteous man!
nkjv@Isaiah:5:24 @ Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble, And the flame consumes the chaff, So their root will be as rottenness, And their blossom will ascend like dust; Because they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts, And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
nkjv@Isaiah:5:25 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD is aroused against His people; He has stretched out His hand against them And stricken them, And the hills trembled. Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.
nkjv@Isaiah:6:5 @ So I said: "Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts."
nkjv@Isaiah:6:8 @ Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: "Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?" Then I said, "Here am I! Send me."
nkjv@Isaiah:6:12 @ The LORD has removed men far away, And the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
nkjv@Isaiah:6:13 @ But yet a tenth will be in it, And will return and be for consuming, As a terebinth tree or as an oak, Whose stump remains when it is cut down. So the holy seed shall be its stump."
nkjv@Isaiah:7:2 @ And it was told to the house of David, saying, "Syria's forces are deployed in Ephraim." So his heart and the heart of his people were moved as the trees of the woods are moved with the wind.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:4 @ and say to him: "Take heed, and be quiet; do not fear or be fainthearted for these two stubs of smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and the son of Remaliah.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:6 @ "Let us go up against Judah and trouble it, and let us make a gap in its wall for ourselves, and set a king over them, the son of Tabel"--
nkjv@Isaiah:7:8 @ For the head of Syria is Damascus, And the head of Damascus is Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim will be broken, So that it will not be a people.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:11 @ "Ask a sign for yourself from the LORD your God; ask it either in the depth or in the height above."
nkjv@Isaiah:7:13 @ Then he said, "Hear now, O house of David! Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will you weary my God also?
nkjv@Isaiah:7:14 @ Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:16 @ For before the Child shall know to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land that you dread will be forsaken by both her kings.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:18 @ And it shall come to pass in that day That the LORD will whistle for the fly That is in the farthest part of the rivers of Egypt, And for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:22 @ So it shall be, from the abundance of milk they give, That he will eat curds; For curds and honey everyone will eat who is left in the land.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:23 @ It shall happen in that day, That wherever there could be a thousand vines Worth a thousand shekels of silver, It will be for briers and thorns.
nkjv@Isaiah:7:25 @ And to any hill which could be dug with the hoe, You will not go there for fear of briers and thorns; But it will become a range for oxen And a place for sheep to roam.
nkjv@Isaiah:8:2 @ And I will take for Myself faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah."
nkjv@Isaiah:8:4 @ for before the child shall have knowledge to cry "My father' and "My mother,' the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria will be taken away before the king of Assyria."
nkjv@Isaiah:8:7 @ Now therefore, behold, the Lord brings up over them The waters of the River, strong and mighty-- The king of Assyria and all his glory; He will go up over all his channels And go over all his banks.
nkjv@Isaiah:8:10 @ Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing; Speak the word, but it will not stand, For God is with us."
nkjv@Isaiah:8:11 @ For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:
nkjv@Isaiah:8:18 @ Here am I and the children whom the LORD has given me! We are for signs and wonders in Israel From the LORD of hosts, Who dwells in Mount Zion.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:3 @ You have multiplied the nation And increased its joy; They rejoice before You According to the joy of harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:4 @ For You have broken the yoke of his burden And the staff of his shoulder, The rod of his oppressor, As in the day of Midian.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:5 @ For every warrior's sandal from the noisy battle, And garments rolled in blood, Will be used for burning and fuel of fire.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:6 @ For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:7 @ Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:11 @ Therefore the LORD shall set up The adversaries of Rezin against him, And spur his enemies on,
nkjv@Isaiah:9:12 @ The Syrians before and the Philistines behind; And they shall devour Israel with an open mouth. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:13 @ For the people do not turn to Him who strikes them, Nor do they seek the LORD of hosts.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:14 @ Therefore the LORD will cut off head and tail from Israel, Palm branch and bulrush in one day.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:16 @ For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:17 @ Therefore the Lord will have no joy in their young men, Nor have mercy on their fatherless and widows; For everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer, And every mouth speaks folly. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.

nkjv@Isaiah:9:19 @ Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts The land is burned up, And the people shall be as fuel for the fire; No man shall spare his brother.
nkjv@Isaiah:9:21 @ Manasseh shall devour Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh; Together they shall be against Judah. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:1 @ "Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, Who write misfortune, Which they have prescribed
nkjv@Isaiah:10:3 @ What will you do in the day of punishment, And in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your glory?
nkjv@Isaiah:10:4 @ Without Me they shall bow down among the prisoners, And they shall fall among the slain." For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:8 @ For he says, "Are not my princes altogether kings?
nkjv@Isaiah:10:12 @ Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Lord has performed all His work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, that He will say, "I will punish the fruit of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his haughty looks."
nkjv@Isaiah:10:13 @ For he says: "By the strength of my hand I have done it, And by my wisdom, for I am prudent; Also I have removed the boundaries of the people, And have robbed their treasuries; So I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:16 @ Therefore the Lord, the Lord of hosts, Will send leanness among his fat ones; And under his glory He will kindle a burning Like the burning of a fire.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:17 @ So the Light of Israel will be for a fire, And his Holy One for a flame; It will burn and devour His thorns and his briers in one day.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:18 @ And it will consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, Both soul and body; And they will be as when a sick man wastes away.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:19 @ Then the rest of the trees of his forest Will be so few in number That a child may write them.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:22 @ For though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, A remnant of them will return; The destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:23 @ For the Lord GOD of hosts Will make a determined end In the midst of all the land.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:24 @ Therefore thus says the Lord GOD of hosts: "O My people, who dwell in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrian. He shall strike you with a rod and lift up his staff against you, in the manner of Egypt.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:25 @ For yet a very little while and the indignation will cease, as will My anger in their destruction."
nkjv@Isaiah:10:26 @ And the LORD of hosts will stir up a scourge for him like the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb; as His rod was on the sea, so will He lift it up in the manner of Egypt.
nkjv@Isaiah:10:34 @ He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
nkjv@Isaiah:11:1 @ There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
nkjv@Isaiah:11:4 @ But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, And decide with equity for the meek of the earth; He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
nkjv@Isaiah:11:9 @ They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD As the waters cover the sea.

nkjv@Isaiah:12:1 @ And in that day you will say: "O LORD, I will praise You; Though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
nkjv@Isaiah:12:2 @ Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; "For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation."'

nkjv@Isaiah:13:3 @ I have commanded My sanctified ones; I have also called My mighty ones for My anger-- Those who rejoice in My exaltation."
nkjv@Isaiah:13:4 @ The noise of a multitude in the mountains, Like that of many people! A tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together! The LORD of hosts musters The army for battle.

nkjv@Isaiah:13:7 @ Therefore all hands will be limp, Every man's heart will melt,
nkjv@Isaiah:13:10 @ For the stars of heaven and their constellations Will not give their light; The sun will be darkened in its going forth, And the moon will not cause its light to shine.

nkjv@Isaiah:14:9 @ "Hell from beneath is excited about you, To meet you at your coming; It stirs up the dead for you, All the chief ones of the earth; It has raised up from their thrones All the kings of the nations.
nkjv@Isaiah:14:13 @ For you have said in your heart: "I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north;
nkjv@Isaiah:14:21 @ Prepare slaughter for his children Because of the iniquity of their fathers, Lest they rise up and possess the land, And fill the face of the world with cities."

nkjv@Isaiah:15:4 @ Heshbon and Elealeh will cry out, Their voice shall be heard as far as Jahaz; Therefore the armed soldiers of Moab will cry out; His life will be burdensome to him.
nkjv@Isaiah:15:5 @ "My heart will cry out for Moab; His fugitives shall flee to Zoar, Like a three-year-old heifer. For by the Ascent of Luhith They will go up with weeping; For in the way of Horonaim They will raise up a cry of destruction,
nkjv@Isaiah:15:6 @ For the waters of Nimrim will be desolate, For the green grass has withered away; The grass fails, there is nothing green.
nkjv@Isaiah:15:7 @ Therefore the abundance they have gained, And what they have laid up, They will carry away to the Brook of the Willows.
nkjv@Isaiah:15:8 @ For the cry has gone all around the borders of Moab, Its wailing to Eglaim And its wailing to Beer Elim.
nkjv@Isaiah:15:9 @ For the waters of Dimon will be full of blood; Because I will bring more upon Dimon, Lions upon him who escapes from Moab, And on the remnant of the land."

nkjv@Isaiah:16:4 @ Let My outcasts dwell with you, O Moab; Be a shelter to them from the face of the spoiler. For the extortioner is at an end, Devastation ceases, The oppressors are consumed out of the land.
nkjv@Isaiah:16:7 @ Therefore Moab shall wail for Moab; Everyone shall wail. For the foundations of Kir Hareseth you shall mourn; Surely they are stricken.
nkjv@Isaiah:16:8 @ For the fields of Heshbon languish, And the vine of Sibmah; The lords of the nations have broken down its choice plants, Which have reached to Jazer And wandered through the wilderness. Her branches are stretched out, They are gone over the sea.
nkjv@Isaiah:16:9 @ Therefore I will bewail the vine of Sibmah, With the weeping of Jazer; I will drench you with my tears, O Heshbon and Elealeh; For battle cries have fallen Over your summer fruits and your harvest.

nkjv@Isaiah:19:20 @ And it will be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the LORD because of the oppressors, and He will send them a Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them.
nkjv@Isaiah:19:21 @ Then the LORD will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know the LORD in that day, and will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to the LORD and perform it.
nkjv@Isaiah:20:3 @ Then the LORD said, "Just as My servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder against Egypt and Ethiopia,
nkjv@Isaiah:20:6 @ And the inhabitant of this territory will say in that day, "Surely such is our expectation, wherever we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria; and how shall we escape?"'
nkjv@Isaiah:21:3 @ Therefore my loins are filled with pain; Pangs have taken hold of me, like the pangs of a woman in labor. I was distressed when I heard it; I was dismayed when I saw it.
nkjv@Isaiah:21:4 @ My heart wavered, fearfulness frightened me; The night for which I longed He turned into fear for me.
nkjv@Isaiah:21:6 @ For thus has the Lord said to me: "Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees."
nkjv@Isaiah:21:13 @ The burden against Arabia. In the forest in Arabia you will lodge, O you traveling companies of Dedanites.
nkjv@Isaiah:21:15 @ For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, From the bent bow, and from the distress of war.
nkjv@Isaiah:21:16 @ For thus the LORD has said to me: "Within a year, according to the year of a hired man, all the glory of Kedar will fail;
nkjv@Isaiah:21:17 @ and the remainder of the number of archers, the mighty men of the people of Kedar, will be diminished; for the LORD God of Israel has spoken it."
nkjv@Isaiah:22:4 @ Therefore I said, "Look away from me, I will weep bitterly; Do not labor to comfort me Because of the plundering of the daughter of my people."
nkjv@Isaiah:22:5 @ For it is a day of trouble and treading down and perplexity By the Lord GOD of hosts In the Valley of Vision-- Breaking down the walls And of crying to the mountain.
nkjv@Isaiah:22:8 @ He removed the protection of Judah. You looked in that day to the armor of the House of the Forest;
nkjv@Isaiah:22:10 @ You numbered the houses of Jerusalem, And the houses you broke down To fortify the wall.
nkjv@Isaiah:22:11 @ You also made a reservoir between the two walls For the water of the old pool. But you did not look to its Maker, Nor did you have respect for Him who fashioned it long ago.
nkjv@Isaiah:22:12 @ And in that day the Lord GOD of hosts Called for weeping and for mourning, For baldness and for girding with sackcloth.
nkjv@Isaiah:22:13 @ But instead, joy and gladness, Slaying oxen and killing sheep, Eating meat and drinking wine: "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!"
nkjv@Isaiah:22:14 @ Then it was revealed in my hearing by the LORD of hosts, "Surely for this iniquity there will be no atonement for you, Even to your death," says the Lord GOD of hosts.
nkjv@Isaiah:22:16 @ "What have you here, and whom have you here, That you have hewn a sepulcher here, As he who hews himself a sepulcher on high, Who carves a tomb for himself in a rock?
nkjv@Isaiah:22:25 @ In that day,' says the LORD of hosts, "the peg that is fastened in the secure place will be removed and be cut down and fall, and the burden that was on it will be cut off; for the LORD has spoken."'
nkjv@Isaiah:23:1 @ The burden against Tyre. Wail, you ships of Tarshish! For it is laid waste, So that there is no house, no harbor; From the land of Cyprus it is revealed to them.
nkjv@Isaiah:23:3 @ And on great waters the grain of Shihor, The harvest of the River, is her revenue; And she is a marketplace for the nations.
nkjv@Isaiah:23:4 @ Be ashamed, O Sidon; For the sea has spoken, The strength of the sea, saying, "I do not labor, nor bring forth children; Neither do I rear young men, Nor bring up virgins."
nkjv@Isaiah:23:13 @ Behold, the land of the Chaldeans, This people which was not; Assyria founded it for wild beasts of the desert. They set up its towers, They raised up its palaces, And brought it to ruin.
