Isaiah:1:2 @
Hear ,
O heavens ,
and give ear ,
O earth ,
For Jehovah hath spoken :
Sons I have nourished and brought up ,
And they --
they transgressed against Me .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:3 @
An ox hath known its owner ,
And an ass the crib of its master ,
Israel hath not known ,
My people hath not understood .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:4 @
Ah ,
sinning nation ,
a people heavy [
with ]
iniquity ,
A seed of evil doers ,
sons --
corrupters !
They have forsaken Jehovah ,
They have despised the Holy One of Israel ,
They have gone away backward .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:5 @
Wherefore are ye stricken any more ?
Ye do add apostacy !
Every head is become diseased ,
and every heart [
is ]
sick .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:6 @
From the sole of the foot --
unto the head ,
There is no soundness in it ,
Wound ,
and bruise ,
and fresh smiting !
They have not been closed nor bound ,
Nor have they softened with ointment .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:7 @
Your land [
is ]
a desolation ,
your cities burnt with fire ,
Your ground ,
before you strangers are consuming it ,
And a desolation as overthrown by strangers !
ylt @
Isaiah:1:8 @
And left hath been the daughter of Zion ,
As a booth in a vineyard ,
As a lodge in a place of cucumbers --
as a city besieged .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:9 @
Unless Jehovah of Hosts had left to us a remnant ,
Shortly --
as Sodom we had been ,
To Gomorrah we had been like !
ylt @
Isaiah:1:10 @
Hear the word of Jehovah ,
ye rulers of Sodom ,
Give ear to the law of our God ,
ye people of Gomorrah ,
ylt @
Isaiah:1:11 @'
Why to Me the abundance of your sacrifices ?
saith Jehovah ,
I have been satiated [
with ]
burnt-offerings of rams ,
And fat of fatlings ;
And blood of bullocks ,
and lambs ,
And he-goats I have not desired .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:12 @
When ye come in to appear before Me ,
Who hath required this of your hand ,
To trample My courts ?
ylt @
Isaiah:1:13 @
Add not to bring in a vain present ,
Incense --
an abomination it [
is ]
to Me ,
New moon ,
and sabbath ,
calling of convocation !
Rendure not iniquity --
and a restraint !
ylt @
Isaiah:1:14 @
Your new moons and your set seasons hath My soul hated ,
They have been upon me for a burden ,
I have been weary of bearing .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:15 @
And in your spreading forth your hands ,
I hide mine eyes from you ,
Also when ye increase prayer ,
I do not hear ,
Your hands of blood have been full .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:16 @
Wash ye ,
make ye pure ,
Turn aside the evil of your doings ,
from before Mine eyes ,
Cease to do evil ,
learn to do good .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:17 @
Seek judgment ,
make happy the oppressed ,
Judge the fatherless ,
strive [
for ]
the widow .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:18 @
Come ,
I pray you ,
and we reason ,
saith Jehovah ,
If your sins are as scarlet ,
as snow they shall be white ,
If they are red as crimson ,
as wool they shall be !
ylt @
Isaiah:1:19 @
If ye are willing ,
and have hearkened ,
The good of the land ye consume ,
ylt @
Isaiah:1:20 @
And if ye refuse ,
and have rebelled , [
By ]
the sword ye are consumed ,
For the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:21 @
How hath a faithful city become a harlot ?
I have filled it [
with ]
judgment ,
Righteousness lodgeth in it --
now murderers .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:22 @
Thy silver hath become dross ,
Thy drink polluted with water .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:23 @
Thy princes [
are ]
apostates ,
and companions of thieves ,
Every one loving a bribe ,
and pursuing rewards ,
The fatherless they judge not ,
And the plea of the widow cometh not to them .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:24 @
Therefore --
the affirmation of the Lord --
Jehovah of Hosts ,
the Mighty One of Israel :
Ah ,
I am eased of Mine adversaries ,
And I am avenged of Mine enemies ,
ylt @
Isaiah:1:25 @
And I turn back My hand upon thee ,
And I refine as purity thy dross ,
And I turn aside all thy tin ,
ylt @
Isaiah:1:26 @
And I give back thy judges as at the first ,
And thy counsellors as in the beginning ,
After this thou art called , '
A city of righteousness --
a faithful city .'
ylt @
Isaiah:1:27 @
Zion in judgment is redeemed ,
And her captivity in righteousness .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:28 @
And the destruction of transgressors and sinners [
is ]
together ,
And those forsaking Jehovah are consumed .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:29 @
For [
men ]
are ashamed because of the oaks That ye have desired ,
And ye are confounded because of the gardens That ye have chosen .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:30 @
For ye are as an oak whose leaf is fading ,
And as a garden that hath no water .
ylt @
Isaiah:1:31 @
And the strong hath been for tow ,
And his work for a spark ,
And burned have both of them together ,
And there is none quenching !
