Isaiah:51:1-16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Hearken to me ,
ye that follow after righteousness ,
and seek the Lord :
look to the solid rock ,
which ye have hewn ,
and to the hole of the pit which ye have dug .
*
Look to Abraam your father ,
and to Sarrha that bore you :
for he was alone when I called him ,
and blessed him ,
and loved him ,
and multiplied him .
*
And now I will comfort thee ,
O Sion :
and I have comforted all her desert places ;
and I will make her desert places as a garden ,
and her (
note :)
Hebrews .
bre ambiguous (:
note )
western places as the garden of the Lord ;
they shall find in her gladness and exultation ,
thanksgiving and the voice of praise .
*
Hear me ,
hear me ,
my people ;
and ye kings ,
hearken to me :
for a law shall proceed from me ,
and my judgement shall be for a light of (
note :)
Or ,
the Gentiles (:
note )
the nations .
*
My righteousness speedily draws nigh ,
and my salvation shall go forth (
note :)
Not in Hebrews .
or Alex .(:
note )
as light ,
and on mine arm shall the Gentiles trust :
the isles shall wait for me ,
and on mine arm shall they trust .
*
Lift up your eyes to the sky ,
and look on the earth beneath :
for the sky was darkened like smoke ,
and the earth shall wax old like a garment ,
and the inhabitants shall die in like manner :
but my righteousness shall not fail .
*
Hear me ,
ye that know judgement ,
the people in whose heart is my law :
fear not the reproach of men ,
and be not overcome by their contempt .
*
For as a garment will be devoured by time ,
and as wool will be devoured by a moth ,
so shall they be consumed ;
but my righteousness shall be for ever ,
and my salvation for all generations .
*
Awake ,
awake ,
O Jerusalem ,
and put on the strength of thine arm ;
awake as in (
note :)
Gr .
the beginning of day (:
note )
the early time ,
as the ancient generation .
*
Art thou not it that dried the sea ,
the water ,
even the abundance of the deep ;
that made the depths of the sea a way of passage for the delivered and redeemed ?
*
for by the help of the Lord they shall return ,
and come to Sion with joy and everlasting exultation ,
for praise and joy shall come upon their head :
pain ,
and grief ,
and groaning ,
have fled away .
*
I ,
even I ,
am he that comforts thee :
consider who thou art ,
that thou wast afraid of mortal man ,
and of the son of man ,
who are withered as grass .
*
And thou hast forgotten God who made thee ,
who made the sky and founded the earth ;
and thou wert continually afraid because of the wrath of him that afflicted thee :
for whereas he counselled to take thee away ,
yet now where is the wrath of him that afflicted thee ?
*
For in thy deliverance he shall not halt ,
nor tarry ;
*
for I am thy God ,
that troubles the sea ,
and causes the waves thereof to roar :
the Lord of hosts is my name .
*
I will put my words into thy mouth ,
and I will shelter thee under the shadow of mine hand ,
with which I fixed the sky ,
and founded the earth :
and the Lord shall say to Sion ,
Thou art my people .
