Isaiah:1:4 @O nation full of sin, a people weighted down with crime, a generation of evil-doers, false-hearted children: they have gone away from the Lord, they have no respect for the Holy One of Israel, their hearts are turned back from him.
bbe@Isaiah:1:7 @Your country has become waste; your towns are burned with fire; as for your land, it is overturned before your eyes, made waste and overcome by men from strange lands.
bbe@Isaiah:1:12 @At whose request do you come before me, making my house unclean with your feet?
bbe@Isaiah:1:16 @Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning;
bbe@Isaiah:1:17 @Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow.
bbe@Isaiah:1:23 @Your chiefs have gone against the Lord, they have become friends of thieves; every one of them is looking for profit and going after rewards; they do not give right decisions for the child who has no father, and they do not let the cause of the widow come before them.
bbe@Isaiah:1:24 @For this reason the Lord, the Lord of armies, the Strong One of Israel, has said, I will put an end to my haters, and send punishment on those who are against me;
bbe@Isaiah:1:27 @Upright acts will be the price of Zion's forgiveness, and by righteousness will men be living there.
bbe@Isaiah:1:29 @For you will be put to shame because of the trees of your desire, and because of the gardens of your pleasure.
bbe@Isaiah:1:30 @For you will be like a tree whose leaves have become dry, and like a garden without water.
bbe@Isaiah:1:31 @And the strong will be as food for the fire, and his work as a flame; and they will be burned together, with no one to put out the fire.
bbe@Isaiah:2:3 @And the peoples will say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he will give us knowledge of his ways, and we will be guided by his word; for out of Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
bbe@Isaiah:2:4 @And he will be the judge between the nations, and the peoples will be ruled by his decisions: and their swords will be turned into plough-blades, and their spears into vine-knives: no longer will the nations be turning their swords against one another, and the knowledge of war will be gone for ever.
bbe@Isaiah:2:6 @For you, O Lord, have given up your people, the family of Jacob, because they are full of the evil ways of the east, and make use of secret arts like the Philistines, and are friends with the children of strange countries.
bbe@Isaiah:2:9 @And the poor man's head is bent, and the great man goes down on his face: for this cause there will be no forgiveness for their sin.
bbe@Isaiah:2:10 @Go into a hole in the rock, covering yourselves with dust, in fear of the Lord, before the glory of his power.
bbe@Isaiah:2:12 @For the day of the Lord of armies is coming on all the pride of men, and on all who are high and lifted up;
bbe@Isaiah:2:19 @And men will go into cracks of the rocks, and into holes of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength.
bbe@Isaiah:2:20 @In that day men will put their images of silver and of gold, which they made for worship, in the keeping of the beasts of the dark places;
bbe@Isaiah:2:21 @To take cover in the cracks of the rocks, and in the holes of the hills, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength.
bbe@Isaiah:2:22 @Have no more to do with man, whose life is only a breath, for he is of no value.
bbe@Isaiah:3:1 @For the Lord, the Lord of armies, is about to take away from Jerusalem and from Judah all their support; their store of bread and of water;
bbe@Isaiah:3:6 @When one man puts his hand on another in his father's house, and says, You have clothing, be our ruler and be responsible for us in our sad condition:
bbe@Isaiah:3:7 @Then he will say with an oath, I will not be a helper, for in my house there is no bread or clothing: I will not let you make me a ruler of the people.
bbe@Isaiah:3:8 @For Jerusalem has become feeble, and destruction has come on Judah, because their words and their acts are against the Lord, moving the eyes of his glory to wrath.
bbe@Isaiah:3:9 @Their respect for a man's position is a witness against them; and their sin is open to the view of all; like that of Sodom, it is not covered. A curse on their soul! for the measure of their sin is full.
bbe@Isaiah:3:10 @Happy is the upright man! for he will have joy of the fruit of his ways
bbe@Isaiah:3:11 @Unhappy is the sinner! for the reward of his evil doings will come on him.
bbe@Isaiah:3:12 @As for my people, their ruler is acting like a child, and those who have authority over them are women. O my people, your guides are the cause of your wandering, turning your footsteps out of the right way.
bbe@Isaiah:3:13 @The Lord is ready to take up his cause against his people, and is about to come forward as their judge.
bbe@Isaiah:3:14 @The Lord comes to be the judge of their responsible men and of their rulers: it is you who have made waste the vine-garden, and in your houses is the property of the poor which you have taken by force.
bbe@Isaiah:3:24 @And in the place of sweet spices will be an evil smell, and for a fair band a thick cord; for a well-dressed head there will be the cutting-off of the hair, and for a beautiful robe there will be the clothing of sorrow; the mark of the prisoner in place of the ornaments of the free.
bbe@Isaiah:4:1 @And in that day seven women will put their hands on one man, saying, There will be no need for you to give us food or clothing, only let us go under your name, so that our shame may be taken away.
bbe@Isaiah:4:3 @And it will come about that the rest of the living in Zion, and of those who have been kept from destruction in Jerusalem, will be named holy, even everyone who has been recorded for life in Jerusalem:
bbe@Isaiah:4:5 @And over every living-place on Mount Zion, all over all her meetings, the Lord will make a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night, for over all, the glory of the Lord will be a cover and a tent;
bbe@Isaiah:5:1 @Let me make a song about my loved one, a song of love for his vine-garden. My loved one had a vine-garden on a fertile hill:
bbe@Isaiah:5:2 @And after working the earth of it with a spade, he took away its stones, and put in it a very special vine; and he put up a watchtower in the middle of it, hollowing out in the rock a place for the grape-crushing; and he was hoping that it would give the best grapes, but it gave common grapes.
bbe@Isaiah:5:4 @Is there anything which might have been done for my vine-garden which I have not done? why then, when I was hoping for the best grapes did it give me common grapes?
bbe@Isaiah:5:7 @For the vine-garden of the Lord of armies is the people of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of his delight: and he was looking for upright judging, and there was blood; for righteousness, and there was a cry for help.
bbe@Isaiah:5:8 @Cursed are those who are joining house to house, and putting field to field, till there is no more living-space for any but themselves in all the land!
bbe@Isaiah:5:10 @For ten fields of vines will only give one measure of wine, and a great amount of seed will only give a small measure of grain.
bbe@Isaiah:5:13 @For this cause my people are taken away as prisoners into strange countries for need of knowledge: and their rulers are wasted for need of food, and their loud-voiced feasters are dry for need of water.
bbe@Isaiah:5:14 @For this cause the underworld has made wide its throat, opening its mouth without limit: and her glory, and the noise of her masses, and her loud-voiced feasters, will go down into it.
bbe@Isaiah:5:18 @Cursed are those who make use of ox-cords for pulling the evil thing, and the bands of a young ox for their sin!
bbe@Isaiah:5:23 @Who for a reward give support to the cause of the sinner, and who take away the righteousness of the upright from him.
bbe@Isaiah:5:24 @For this cause, as the waste of the grain is burned up by tongues of fire, and as the dry grass goes down before the flame, so their root will be like the dry stems of grain, and their flower will go up in dust: because they have gone against the law of the Lord of armies, and have given no honour to the word of the Holy One of Israel.
bbe@Isaiah:5:25 @For this reason the wrath of the Lord has been burning against his people, and his hand has been stretched out against them in punishment, and the hills were shaking, and their dead bodies were like waste in the open places of the town.
bbe@Isaiah:6:2 @Over him were the winged ones: every one had six wings; two for covering his face, two for covering his feed, and two for flight.
bbe@Isaiah:6:5 @Then I said, The curse is on me, and my fate is destruction; for I am a man of unclean lips, living among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of armies.
bbe@Isaiah:6:8 @And the voice of the Lord came to my ears, saying, Whom am I to send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I, send me.
bbe@Isaiah:6:10 @Make the hearts of this people fat, and let their ears be stopped, and their eyes shut; for fear that they may see with their eyes, and be hearing with their ears, and their heart may become wise, and they may be turned to me and made well.
bbe@Isaiah:7:6 @Let us go up against Judah, troubling her, and forcing our way into her, and let us put up a king in her, even the son of Tabeel:
bbe@Isaiah:7:8 @For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin (and in sixty-five years from now Ephraim will be broken, and will no longer be a people):
bbe@Isaiah:7:11 @Make a request to the Lord your God for a sign, a sign in the deep places of the underworld, or in the high heavens.
bbe@Isaiah:7:14 @For this cause the Lord himself will give you a sign; a young woman is now with child, and she will give birth to a son, and she will give him the name Immanuel.
bbe@Isaiah:7:16 @For before the child is old enough to make a decision between evil and good, the land whose two kings you are now fearing will have become waste
bbe@Isaiah:7:18 @And it will be in that day that the Lord will make a piping sound for the fly which is in the end of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the land of Assyria.
bbe@Isaiah:7:20 @In that day will the Lord take away the hair of the head and of the feet, as well as the hair of the face, with a blade got for a price from the other side of the River; even with the king of Assyria.
bbe@Isaiah:7:22 @And they will give so much milk that he will be able to have butter for his food: for butter and honey will be the food of all who are still living in the land.
bbe@Isaiah:7:23 @And it will be in that day that in every place where before there were a thousand vines valued at a thousand shekels of silver, there will be nothing but blackberries and thorns.
bbe@Isaiah:7:25 @And they will send out the oxen and the sheep on all the hills which before were worked with the spade,... fear of blackberries and thorns.
bbe@Isaiah:8:4 @For before the child is able to say, Father, or, Mother, the wealth of Damascus and the goods of Samaria will be taken away by the king of Assyria.
bbe@Isaiah:8:7 @For this cause the Lord is sending on them the waters of the River, deep and strong, even the king of Assyria and all his glory: and it will come up through all its streams, overflowing all its edges:
bbe@Isaiah:8:8 @And it will come on into Judah; rushing on and overflowing, till the waters are up to the neck; *** and his outstretched wings will be covering the land from side to side: for God is with us.
bbe@Isaiah:8:10 @Let your designs be formed, and they will come to nothing; give your orders, and they will not be effected: for God is with us.
bbe@Isaiah:8:11 @For the Lord, controlling me with a strong hand, gave me orders not to go in the way of this people, saying,
bbe@Isaiah:8:14 @And he will be for a holy place: but for a stone of falling and a rock of trouble to the two houses of Israel, and to the men of Jerusalem, for a net in which they may be taken.
bbe@Isaiah:8:17 @And I will be waiting for the Lord, whose face is veiled from the house of Jacob, and I will be looking for him.
bbe@Isaiah:8:18 @See, I and the children whom the Lord has given me, are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of armies, whose resting-place is in Mount Zion
bbe@Isaiah:8:19 @And when they say to you, Make request for us to those who have control of spirits, and to those wise in secret arts, who make hollow bird-like sounds; is it not right for a people to make request to their gods, to make request for the living to the dead?
bbe@Isaiah:8:20 @Then say to them, Put your faith in the teaching and the witness.... If they do not say such things.... For him there is no dawn....
bbe@Isaiah:9:2 @The people who went in the dark have seen a great light, and for those who were living in the land of the deepest night, the light is shining.
bbe@Isaiah:9:3 @You have made them very glad, increasing their joy. They are glad before you as men are glad in the time of getting in the grain, or when they make division of the goods taken in war.
bbe@Isaiah:9:4 @For by your hand the yoke on his neck and the rod on his back, even the rod of his cruel master, have been broken, as in the day of Midian.
bbe@Isaiah:9:5 @For every boot of the man of war with his sounding step, and the clothing rolled in blood, will be for burning, food for the fire.
bbe@Isaiah:9:6 @For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace.
bbe@Isaiah:9:7 @Of the increase of his rule and of peace there will be no end, on the seat of David, and in his kingdom; to make it strong, supporting it with wise decision and righteousness, now and for ever. By the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.
bbe@Isaiah:9:11 @For this cause the Lord has made strong the haters of Israel, driving them on to make war against him;
bbe@Isaiah:9:12 @Aram on the east, and the Philistines on the west, who have come against Israel with open mouths. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
bbe@Isaiah:9:14 @For this cause the Lord took away from Israel head and tail, high and low, in one day.
bbe@Isaiah:9:16 @For the guides of this people are the cause of their wandering from the right way, and those who are guided by them come to destruction.
bbe@Isaiah:9:17 @For this cause the Lord will have no pleasure in their young men, and no pity on their widows and the children without fathers: for they are all haters of God and evil-doers, and foolish words come from every mouth. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
bbe@Isaiah:9:18 @For evil was burning like a fire; the blackberries and thorns were burned up; the thick woods took fire, rolling up in dark clouds of smoke.
bbe@Isaiah:9:19 @The land was dark with the wrath of the Lord of armies: the people were like those who take men's flesh for food.
bbe@Isaiah:9:21 @Manasseh was making a meal of Ephraim, and Ephraim of Manasseh; and together they were attacking Judah. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
bbe@Isaiah:10:3 @And what will you do in the day of punishment, and in the destruction which is coming from far? to whom will you go for help, and what will become of your glory?
bbe@Isaiah:10:4 @... For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
bbe@Isaiah:10:8 @For he says, Are not all my captains kings?
bbe@Isaiah:10:12 @For this cause it will be that, when the purpose of the Lord against Mount Zion and Jerusalem is complete, I will send punishment on the pride of the heart of the king of Assyria, and on the glory of his uplifted eyes.
bbe@Isaiah:10:13 @For he has said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my knowledge, for I am wise: and I have taken away the limits of the peoples' lands, and the stores of their wealth have become mine; and I have made towns low in the dust, sending destruction on those living in them;
bbe@Isaiah:10:14 @And I have put my hands on the wealth of the peoples, as on the place where a bird has put her eggs; and as a man may take the eggs from which a bird has gone, so I have taken all the earth for myself: and not a wing was moved, and not a mouth gave out a sound.
bbe@Isaiah:10:16 @For this cause the Lord, the Lord of armies, will make his fat become wasted; and in his inner parts a fire will be lighted like a burning flame.
bbe@Isaiah:10:17 @And the light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: wasting and burning up his thorns in one day.
bbe@Isaiah:10:20 @And it will be in that day that the rest of Israel, and those of Jacob who have come safely through these troubles, will no longer go for help to him whose rod was on their back, but their faith will be in the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
bbe@Isaiah:10:22 @For though your people, O Israel, are as the sand of the sea, only a small number will come back: for the destruction is fixed, overflowing in righteousness.
bbe@Isaiah:10:23 @For the Lord, the Lord of armies, is about to make destruction complete in all the land.
bbe@Isaiah:10:24 @For this cause the Lord, the Lord of armies, says, O my people living in Zion, have no fear of the Assyrian, even if his rod comes on your back, and his stick is lifted up as in Egypt.
bbe@Isaiah:10:25 @For in a very short time my passion will be over, and my wrath will be turned to their destruction.
bbe@Isaiah:10:28 @He has gone up from Pene-Rimmon, he has come to Aiath; he has gone past Migron, at Michmash he puts his forces in order.
bbe@Isaiah:11:4 @But he will do right in the cause of the poor, and give wise decisions for those in the land who are in need; and the rod of his mouth will come down on the cruel, and with the breath of his lips he will put an end to the evil-doer.
bbe@Isaiah:11:6 @And the wolf will be living with the lamb, and the leopard will take his rest with the young goat; and the lion will take grass for food like the ox; and the young lion will go with the young ones of the herd; and a little child will be their guide.
bbe@Isaiah:11:9 @There will be no cause of pain or destruction in all my holy mountain: for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the sea is covered by the waters.
bbe@Isaiah:11:13 @And the envy of Ephraim will be gone, and those who make trouble for Judah will come to an end: Ephraim will have no more envy of Judah, and there will be an end of Judah's hate for Ephraim.
bbe@Isaiah:11:16 @And there will be a highway for the rest of his people from Assyria; as there was for Israel in the day when he came up out of the land of Egypt.
bbe@Isaiah:12:1 @And in that day you will say I will give praise to you, O Lord; for though you were angry with me, your wrath is turned away, and I am comforted.
bbe@Isaiah:12:2 @See, God is my salvation; I will have faith in the Lord, without fear: for the Lord Jah is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation.
bbe@Isaiah:12:5 @Make a song to the Lord; for he has done noble things: give news of them through all the earth.
bbe@Isaiah:12:6 @Let your voice be sounding in a cry of joy, O daughter of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.
bbe@Isaiah:13:4 @The noise of great numbers in the mountains, like the noise of a strong people! The noise of the kingdoms of the nations meeting together! The Lord of armies is numbering his forces for war.
bbe@Isaiah:13:5 @They come from a far country, from the farthest part of heaven, even the Lord and the instruments of his wrath, with destruction for all the land.
bbe@Isaiah:13:6 @Send out a cry of grief; for the day of the Lord is near; it comes as destruction from the Most High.
bbe@Isaiah:13:7 @For this cause all hands will be feeble, and every heart of man be turned to water;
bbe@Isaiah:13:10 @For the stars of heaven and its bright armies will not give their light: the sun will be made dark in his journey through the heaven, and the moon will keep back her light.
bbe@Isaiah:13:11 @And I will send punishment on the world for its evil, and on the sinners for their wrongdoing; and I will put an end to all pride, and will make low the power of the cruel.
bbe@Isaiah:13:13 @For this cause the heavens will be shaking, and the earth will be moved out of its place, in the wrath of the Lord of armies, and in the day of his burning passion.
bbe@Isaiah:13:16 @Their young children will be broken up before their eyes; their goods will be taken away, and their wives made the property of others.
bbe@Isaiah:13:18 @In their hands are bows and spears; they are cruel, violently putting the young men to death, and crushing the young women; they have no pity for children, and no mercy for the fruit of the body.
bbe@Isaiah:13:20 @People will never be living in it again, and it will have no more men from generation to generation: the Arab will not put up his tent there; and those who keep sheep will not make it a resting-place for their flocks.
bbe@Isaiah:14:1 @For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will again make Israel his special people, and will put them in their land; and the man from a strange country will take his place among them and be joined to the family of Jacob.
bbe@Isaiah:14:9 @The underworld is moved at your coming: the shades of the dead are awake before you, even the strong ones of the earth; all the kings of the world have got up from their seats.
bbe@Isaiah:14:13 @For you said in your heart, I will go up to heaven, I will make my seat higher than the stars of God; I will take my place on the mountain of the meeting-place of the gods, in the inmost parts of the north.
bbe@Isaiah:14:19 @But you, like a birth before its time, are stretched out with no resting-place in the earth; clothed with the bodies of the dead who have been put to the sword, who go down to the lowest parts of the underworld; a dead body, crushed under foot.
bbe@Isaiah:14:20 @As for your fathers, you will not be united with them in their resting-place, because you have been the cause of destruction to your land, and of death to your people; the seed of the evil-doer will have no place in the memory of man.
bbe@Isaiah:14:21 @Make ready a place of death for his children, because of the evil-doing of their father; so that they may not come up and take the earth for their heritage, covering the face of the world with waste places.
bbe@Isaiah:14:22 @For I will come up against them, says the Lord of armies, cutting off from Babylon name and offspring, son and son's son, says the Lord.
bbe@Isaiah:14:23 @And I will make you a heritage for the hedgehog, and pools of water: and I will go through it with the brush of destruction, says the Lord of armies.
bbe@Isaiah:14:26 @This is the purpose for all the earth: and this is the hand stretched out over all nations.
bbe@Isaiah:14:27 @For it is the purpose of the Lord of armies, and who will make it of no effect? when his hand is stretched out, by whom may it be turned back?
bbe@Isaiah:14:29 @Be not glad, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod which was on you is broken: for out of the snake's root will come a poison-snake, and its fruit will be a winged poison-snake.
bbe@Isaiah:14:30 @And the poorest of the land will have food, and those in need will be given a safe resting-place: but your seed will come to an end for need of food, and the rest of you will be put to the sword.
bbe@Isaiah:14:31 @Send out a cry, O door! Make sounds of sorrow, O town! All your land has come to nothing, O Philistia; for there comes a smoke out of the north, and everyone keeps his place in the line.
bbe@Isaiah:14:32 @What answer, then, will my people give to the representatives of the nation? That the Lord is the builder of Zion, and she will be a safe place for the poor of his people.
bbe@Isaiah:15:1 @The word about Moab. For in a night Ar of Moab has become waste, and is seen no longer; for in a night Kir of Moab has become waste, and is seen no longer.
bbe@Isaiah:15:4 @Heshbon is crying out, and Elealeh; their voice is sounding even to Jahaz: for this cause the heart of Moab is shaking; his soul is shaking with fear.
bbe@Isaiah:15:5 @My heart is crying out for Moab; her people go in flight to Zoar, and to Eglath-shelishiyah: for they go up with weeping by the slope of Luhith; on the way to Horonaim they send up a cry of destruction.
bbe@Isaiah:15:6 @The waters of Nimrim will become dry: for the grass is burned up, the young grass is coming to an end, every green thing is dead.
bbe@Isaiah:15:7 @For this cause they will take away their wealth, and the stores they have got together, over the stream of the water-plants.
bbe@Isaiah:15:8 @For the cry has gone round the limits of Moab; as far as to Eglaim and Beer-elim.
bbe@Isaiah:15:9 @For the waters of Dimon are full of blood: and I'm sending even more on Moab, a lion on those of Moab who go in flight, and on the rest of the land.
bbe@Isaiah:16:2 @For the daughters of Moab will be like wandering birds, like a place from which the young birds have gone in flight, at the ways across the Arnon.
bbe@Isaiah:16:4 @Let those who have been forced out of Moab have a resting-place with you; be a cover to them from him who is making waste their land: till the cruel ones are cut off, and wasting has come to an end, and those who take pleasure in crushing the poor are gone from the land.
bbe@Isaiah:16:5 @Then a king's seat will be based on mercy, and one will be seated on it in the tent of David for ever; judging uprightly, and quick to do righteousness.
bbe@Isaiah:16:7 @For this cause everyone in Moab will give cries of grief for Moab: crushed to the earth, they will be weeping for the men of Kir-hareseth.
bbe@Isaiah:16:8 @For the fields of Heshbon are waste, the vine of Sibmah is dead; the lords of nations were overcome by the produce of her vines; her vine-plants went as far as Jazer, and came even to the waste land; her branches were stretched out to the sea.
bbe@Isaiah:16:9 @For this cause my sorrow for the vine of Sibmah will be like the weeping for Jazer: my eyes are dropping water on you, O Heshbon and Elealeh! For they are sounding the war-cry over your summer fruits and the getting in of your grain;
bbe@Isaiah:16:10 @And all joy is gone; no longer are they glad for the fertile field; and in the vine-gardens there are no songs or sounds of joy: the crushing of grapes has come to an end, and its glad cry has been stopped.
bbe@Isaiah:16:11 @For this cause the cords of my heart are sounding for Moab, and I am full of sorrow for Kir-heres.
bbe@Isaiah:16:14 @But now the Lord has said, In three years, the years of a servant working for payment, the glory of Moab, all that great people, will be turned to shame, and the rest of Moab will be very small and without honour.
bbe@Isaiah:17:2 @Her towns are unpeopled for ever; there the flocks take their rest in peace, without fear.
bbe@Isaiah:17:9 @In that day your towns will be like the waste places of the Hivites and the Amorites which the children of Israel took for a heritage, and they will come to destruction.
bbe@Isaiah:17:10 @For you have not given honour to the God of your salvation, and have not kept in mind the Rock of your strength; for this cause you made a garden of Adonis, and put in it the vine-cuttings of a strange god;
bbe@Isaiah:17:13 @But he will put a stop to them, and make them go in flight far away, driving them like the waste of the grain on the tops of the mountains before the wind, and like the circling dust before the storm.
bbe@Isaiah:17:14 @In the evening there is fear, and in the morning they are gone. This is the fate of those who take our goods, and the reward of those who violently take our property for themselves.
bbe@Isaiah:18:4 @For this is what the Lord has said to me: I will be quiet, watching from my place; like the clear heat when the sun is shining, like a mist of dew in the heat of summer.
bbe@Isaiah:18:5 @For before the time of getting in the grapes, after the opening of the bud, when the flower has become a grape ready for crushing, he will take away the small branches with knives, cutting down and taking away the wide-stretching branches.
bbe@Isaiah:18:6 @They will be for the birds of the mountains, and for the beasts of the earth: the birds will come down on them in the summer, and the beasts of the earth in the winter.
bbe@Isaiah:19:12 @Where, then, are your wise men? let them make clear to you, let them give you knowledge of the purpose of the Lord of armies for Egypt.
bbe@Isaiah:19:15 @And in Egypt there will be no work for any man, head or tail, high or low, to do.
bbe@Isaiah:19:17 @And the land of Judah will become a cause of great fear to Egypt; whenever its name comes to mind, Egypt will be in fear before the Lord of armies because of his purpose against it.
bbe@Isaiah:20:3 @And the Lord said, As my servant Isaiah has gone unclothed and without shoes for three years as a sign and a wonder to Egypt and Ethiopia,
bbe@Isaiah:20:4 @So will the king of Assyria take away the prisoners of Egypt and those forced out of Ethiopia, young and old, unclothed and without shoes, and with backs uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
bbe@Isaiah:20:6 @And those living by the sea will say in that day, See the fate of our hope to whom we went for help and salvation from the king of Assyria: what hope have we then of salvation?
bbe@Isaiah:21:2 @A vision of fear comes before my eyes; the worker of deceit goes on in his false way, and the waster goes on making waste. Up! Elam; to the attack! Media; I have put an end to her sorrow.
bbe@Isaiah:21:3 @For this cause I am full of bitter grief; pains like the pains of a woman in childbirth have come on me: I am bent down with sorrow at what comes to my ears; I am shocked by what I see.
bbe@Isaiah:21:4 @My mind is wandering, fear has overcome me: the evening of my desire has been turned into shaking for me.
bbe@Isaiah:21:6 @For so has the Lord said to me, Go, let a watchman be placed; let him give word of what he sees:
bbe@Isaiah:21:15 @For they are in flight from the sharp sword, and the bent bow, and from the trouble of war.
bbe@Isaiah:21:16 @For so has the Lord said to me, In a year, by the years of a servant working for payment, all the glory of Kedar will come to an end:
bbe@Isaiah:21:17 @And the rest of the bowmen, the men of war of the children of Kedar, will be small in number: for the Lord, the God of Israel, has said it.
bbe@Isaiah:22:4 @For this cause I have said, Let your eyes be turned away from me in my bitter weeping; I will not be comforted for the wasting of the daughter of my people.
bbe@Isaiah:22:5 @For it is a day of trouble and of crushing down and of destruction from the Lord, the Lord of armies, in the valley of vision;...
bbe@Isaiah:22:11 @And you made a place between the two walls for storing the waters of the old pool: but you gave no thought to him who had done this, and were not looking to him by whom it had been purposed long before.
bbe@Isaiah:22:12 @And in that day the Lord, the Lord of armies, was looking for weeping, and cries of sorrow, cutting off of the hair, and putting on the clothing of grief:
bbe@Isaiah:22:13 @But in place of these there was joy and delight, oxen and sheep were being made ready for food, there was feasting and drinking: men said, Now is the time for food and wine, for tomorrow death comes.
bbe@Isaiah:22:15 @The Lord, the Lord of armies, says, Go to this person in authority, this Shebna, who is over the house; who has made himself a resting-place on high, cutting out a place for himself in the rock, and say,
bbe@Isaiah:22:16 @Who are you, and by what right have you made for yourself a resting-place here?
bbe@Isaiah:22:17 @See, O strong man, the Lord will send you violently away, gripping you with force,
bbe@Isaiah:22:19 @And I will have you forced out of your place of authority, and pulled down from your position.
bbe@Isaiah:22:20 @And in that day I will send for my servant, Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah:
bbe@Isaiah:22:23 @And I will put him like a nail in a safe place; and he will be for a seat of glory to his father's family.
bbe@Isaiah:22:25 @In that day, says the Lord of armies, will the nail fixed in a safe place give way; and it will be cut down, and in its fall the weight hanging on it will be cut off, for the Lord has said it.
bbe@Isaiah:23:4 @Be shamed, O Zidon: for the sea, the strong place of the sea has said, I have not been with child, or given birth; I have not taken care of young men, or kept watch over the growth of virgins.
bbe@Isaiah:23:12 @And he said, There is no more joy for you, O crushed virgin daughter of Zidon: up! go over to Kittim; even there you will have no rest.
bbe@Isaiah:23:15 @And it will be in that day that Tyre will go out of mind for seventy years, that is, the days of one king: after the end of seventy years it will be for Tyre as in the song of the loose woman.
bbe@Isaiah:23:18 @And her goods and her trade will be holy to the Lord: they will not be kept back or stored up; for her produce will be for those living in the Lord's land, to give them food for their needs, and fair clothing
bbe@Isaiah:24:2 @And it will be the same for the people as for the priest; for the servant as for his master; and for the woman-servant as for her owner; the same for the one offering goods for a price as for him who takes them; the same for him who gives money at interest and for him who takes it; the same for him who lets others have the use of his property as for those who make use of it.
bbe@Isaiah:24:3 @The earth will be completely waste and without men; for this is the word of the Lord.
bbe@Isaiah:24:6 @For this cause the earth is given up to the curse, and those in it are judged as sinners: for this cause those living on the earth are burned up, and the rest are small in number.
bbe@Isaiah:24:13 @For it will be in the heart of the earth among the peoples, like the shaking of an olive-tree, as the last of the grapes after the getting-in is done.
bbe@Isaiah:24:14 @But those will be making sounds of joy; they will be crying loudly from the sea for the glory of the Lord.
bbe@Isaiah:24:18 @And it will be that he who goes in flight from the sound of fear will be overtaken by death; and he who gets free from death will be taken in the net: for the windows on high are open, and the bases of the earth are shaking.
bbe@Isaiah:24:23 @Then the moon will be veiled, and the sun put to shame; for the Lord of armies will be ruling in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, and before his judges he will let his glory be seen.
bbe@Isaiah:25:1 @O Lord, you are my God; I will give praise to you, I will give honour to your name; for you have done great acts of power; your purposes in the past have been made true and certain in effect.
bbe@Isaiah:25:2 @For you have made a town a waste place: a strong town a mass of broken walls; the tower of the men of pride has come to an end; it will never be put up again.
bbe@Isaiah:25:3 @For this cause will the strong people give glory to you, the town of the cruel ones will be in fear of you.
bbe@Isaiah:25:4 @For you have been a strong place for the poor and the crushed in their trouble, a safe place from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the wrath of the cruel ones is like a winter storm.
bbe@Isaiah:25:6 @And in this mountain will the Lord of armies make for all peoples a feast of good things, a feast of wines long stored, of good things sweet to the taste, of wines long kept and tested.
bbe@Isaiah:25:8 @He has put an end to death for ever; and the Lord God will take away all weeping; and he will put an end to the shame of his people in all the earth: for the Lord has said it.
bbe@Isaiah:25:9 @And in that day it will be said, See, this is our God; we have been waiting for him, and he will be our saviour: this is the Lord in whom is our hope; we will be glad and have delight in his salvation
bbe@Isaiah:25:10 @For in this mountain will the hand of the Lord come to rest, and Moab will be crushed down in his place, even as the dry stems of the grain are crushed under foot in the waste place.
bbe@Isaiah:26:4 @Let your hope be in the Lord for ever: for the Lord Jah is an unchanging Rock.
bbe@Isaiah:26:5 @For he has made low those who are lifted up, all the people of the town of pride: he makes it low, crushing it down to the earth; he makes it low in the dust.
bbe@Isaiah:26:8 @We have been waiting for you, O Lord; the desire of our soul is for the memory of your name.
bbe@Isaiah:26:9 @In the night the desire of my soul has been for you; early will my spirit be searching for you; for when your punishments come on the earth, the people of the world will get the knowledge of righteousness.
bbe@Isaiah:26:12 @Lord, you will give us peace: for all our works are the outcome of your purpose.
bbe@Isaiah:26:14 @The dead will not come back to life: their spirits will not come back to earth; for this cause you have sent destruction on them, so that the memory of them is dead.
bbe@Isaiah:26:17 @As a woman with child, whose time is near, is troubled, crying out in her pain; so have we been before you, O Lord.
bbe@Isaiah:26:19 @Your dead will come back; their dead bodies will come to life again. Those in the dust, awaking from their sleep, will send out a song; for your dew is a dew of light, and the earth will give birth to the shades.
bbe@Isaiah:26:20 @Come, my people, into your secret places, and let your doors be shut: keep yourself safe for a short time, till his wrath is over.
bbe@Isaiah:26:21 @For the Lord is coming out of his place to send punishment on the people of the earth for their evil-doing: the earth will let the blood drained out on her be seen, and will keep her dead covered no longer.
bbe@Isaiah:27:3 @I, the Lord, am watching it; I will give it water at all times: I will keep it night and day, for fear that any damage comes to it.
bbe@Isaiah:27:10 @For the strong town is without men, an unpeopled living-place; and she has become a waste land: there the young ox will take his rest, and its branches will be food for him.
bbe@Isaiah:27:11 @When its branches are dry they will be broken off; the women will come and put fire to them: for it is a foolish people; for this cause he who made them will have no mercy on them, and he whose work they are will not have pity on them.
bbe@Isaiah:28:4 @And the dead flower of his glory, which is on the head of the fertile valley, will be like the first early fruit before the summer; which a man takes and puts in his mouth the minute he sees it.
bbe@Isaiah:28:8 @For all the tables are covered with coughed-up food, so that there is not a clean place.
bbe@Isaiah:28:10 @For it is one rule after another; one line after another; here a little, there a little.
bbe@Isaiah:28:13 @For this cause the word of the Lord will be to them rule after rule, line after line, here a little, there a little; so that they may go on their way, and falling back may be broken, and taken in the net.
bbe@Isaiah:28:15 @Because you have said, We have made death our friend, and with the underworld we have made an agreement; when the overflowing waters come through they will not come near us; for we are looking to false words for help, taking cover in what is untrue:
bbe@Isaiah:28:16 @For this cause says the Lord God, See, I am placing in Zion as a base, a stone, a tested stone, an angle-stone which is certain and of great value: and he who has faith will not give way.
bbe@Isaiah:28:18 @And the help you were looking for from death will come to nothing, and your agreement with the underworld will be broken; when the overflowing waters come through, then you will be overcome by them.
bbe@Isaiah:28:19 @Whenever they come through they will overtake you; for they will come through morning after morning, by day and by night: and the news will be nothing but fear.
bbe@Isaiah:28:20 @For the bed is not long enough for a man to be stretched out on: and the cover is not wide enough for him to be covered with.
bbe@Isaiah:28:21 @For the Lord will come up as on Mount Perazim, he will be moved to wrath as in the valley of Gibeon; so that he may do his work--strange is his work; and give effect to his act--unnatural is his act.
bbe@Isaiah:28:22 @And now, take care that you do not make sport of him, or your bands will be made strong; for I have had word from the Lord, the Lord of armies, of an end, of a complete end, which is to come on all the land.
bbe@Isaiah:28:24 @Is the ploughman for ever ploughing? does he not get the earth ready and broken up for the seed?
bbe@Isaiah:28:26 @For his God is his teacher, giving him the knowledge of these things.
bbe@Isaiah:28:27 @For the fitches are not crushed with a sharp instrument, and a cart-wheel is not rolled over the cummin; but the grain of the fitches is hammered out with a stick, and of the cummin with a rod.
bbe@Isaiah:28:28 @Is the grain for bread crushed? He does not go on crushing it for ever, but he lets his cart-wheels and his horses go over it without crushing it.
bbe@Isaiah:29:5 @And the army of your attackers will be like small dust, and all the cruel ones like dry stems gone before the wind; suddenly it will come about.
bbe@Isaiah:29:10 @For the Lord has sent on you a spirit of deep sleep; and by him your eyes, the prophets, are shut, and your heads, the seers, are covered.
bbe@Isaiah:29:11 @And the vision of all this has become to you like the words of a book which is shut, which men give to one who has knowledge of writing, saying, Make clear to us what is in the book: and he says, I am not able to, for the book is shut:
bbe@Isaiah:29:14 @For this cause I will again do a strange thing among this people, a thing to be wondered at: and the wisdom of their wise men will come to nothing, and the sense of their guides will no longer be seen.
bbe@Isaiah:29:16 @You are turning things upside down! Is the wet earth the same to you as the one who is forming it? will the thing made say of him who made it, He made me not: or the thing formed say of him who gave it form, He has no knowledge?
bbe@Isaiah:29:20 @For the cruel one has come to nothing; and those who make sport of the Lord are gone; and those who are watching to do evil are cut off:
bbe@Isaiah:29:21 @Who give help to a man in a wrong cause, and who put a net for the feet of him who gives decisions in the public place, taking away a man's right without cause.
bbe@Isaiah:29:22 @For this reason the Lord, the saviour of Abraham, says about the family of Jacob, Jacob will not now be put to shame, or his face be clouded with fear.
bbe@Isaiah:30:2 @Who make a move to go down into Egypt, without authority from me; who are looking to the strength of Pharaoh for help, and whose hope is in the shade of Egypt.
bbe@Isaiah:30:4 @For his chiefs are at Zoan, and his representatives have come to Hanes.
bbe@Isaiah:30:5 @For they have all come with offerings to a people of no use to them, in whom is no help or profit, but only shame and a bad name.
bbe@Isaiah:30:7 @For there is no use or purpose in the help of Egypt: so I have said about her, She is Rahab, who has come to an end.
bbe@Isaiah:30:8 @Now go, put it in writing before them on a board, and make a record of it in a book, so that it may be for the future, a witness for all time to come.
bbe@Isaiah:30:9 @For they are an uncontrolled people, false-hearted, who will not give ear to the teaching of the Lord:
bbe@Isaiah:30:11 @Get out of the good way, turning from the right road; do not keep the Holy One of Israel before our minds.
bbe@Isaiah:30:12 @For this cause the Holy One of Israel says, Because you will not give ear to this word, and are looking for help in ways of deceit and evil, and are putting your hope in them:
bbe@Isaiah:30:15 @For the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, said, In quiet and rest is your salvation: peace and hope are your strength: but you would not have it so.
bbe@Isaiah:30:16 @Saying, No, for we will go in flight on horses; so you will certainly go in flight: and, We will go on the backs of quick-running beasts; so those who go after you will be quick-footed.
bbe@Isaiah:30:17 @A thousand will go in fear before one; even before five you will go in flight: till you are like a pillar by itself on the top of a mountain, and like a flag on a hill.
bbe@Isaiah:30:18 @For this cause the Lord will be waiting, so that he may be kind to you; and he will be lifted up, so that he may have mercy on you; for the Lord is a God of righteousness: there is a blessing on all whose hope is in him.
bbe@Isaiah:30:23 @And he will give rain for your seed, so that you may put it in the earth; and you will have bread from the produce of the earth, good and more than enough for your needs: in that day the cattle will get their food in wide grass-lands.
bbe@Isaiah:30:24 @And the oxen and the young asses which are used for ploughing, will have salted grain which has been made free from the waste with fork and basket.
bbe@Isaiah:30:28 @And his breath is as an overflowing stream, coming up even to the neck, shaking the nations for their destruction, like the shaking of grain in a basket: and he will put a cord in the mouths of the people, turning them out of their way.
bbe@Isaiah:30:31 @For through the voice of the Lord the Assyrian will be broken, and the Lord's rod will be lifted up against him.
bbe@Isaiah:30:33 @For a place of fire has long been ready; yes, it has been made ready for the king; he has made it deep and wide: it is massed with fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of fire, puts a light to it.
