1: The visionH2377 of IsaiahH3470 sonH1121 of Amoz,H0531 thatH0834 he sawH2372 concerningH5921 JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 in the daysH3117 of Uzziah,H5818 Jotham,H3147 Ahaz,H0271 [and] HezekiahH2396 kingsH4428 of Judah.H3063

2: Hear,H8085 heavens,H8064 and give ear,H0238 earth-H0776 forH3588 YahwehH3068 has spoken,H1696 children,H1121 I have nourishedH1431 and brought upH7311 and theyH1992 have rebelledH6586

3: KnowsH3045 the oxH7794 its owner,H7069 and the donkeyH2543 manger,H0018 of its masterH1167 [But] IsraelH3478 notH3808 does know,H3045 My peopleH5971 notH3808 do consider.H0995

4: AlasH1945 nation,H1471 sinfulH2398 a peopleH5971 ladenH3515 with iniquity,H5771 a broodH2233 of evildoers,H7489 ChildrenH1121 who are corrupters-H7843 they have forsakenH5800 -H0853 Yahweh,H3068 they have provoked to angerH5006 -H0853 the Holy oneH6918 of IsraelH3478 they have turned awayH2114 backward.H0268

5: WhyH5921 how longH4100 should you be strickenH5221 again?H5750 You will more and more-H3254 revoltH5627 the wholeH3605 headH7218 is sick,H2483 and the wholeH3605 heartH3824 is faint.H1742

6: From the soleH3709 of the footH7272 and even toH5704 the headH7218 [There is] noH0369 soundnessH4974 [But] wounds,H6482 and bruises,H2250 and sores,H4347 putrefyingH2961 notH3808 they have been closed,H2115 orH3808 bound up,H2280 OrH3808 soothedH7401 with ointment.H8081

7: Your country [is]H0776 desolate,H8077 Your cities [are]H5892 burnedH8313 with fire,H0784 your land,H0127 in your presence,H5048 StrangersH2114 devourH0398 -H0853 and [it is] desolate,H8077 as overthrown byH4114 strangers.H2114

8: So is leftH3498 the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726 as a boothH5521 in a vineyard,H3754 as a hutH4412 in a garden of cucumbers,H4750 as a cityH5892 besieged.H5341

9: UnlessH3884 YahwehH3068 of hostsH6635 Had leftH3498 a remnant,H8300 very smallH4592 like Sodom,H5467 we would have becomeH1961 like GomorrahH6017 we would have been made.H1819

10: HearH8085 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3069 You rulersH7101 of Sodom-H5467 Give earH0238 to the lawH8451 of our God,H0430 You peopleH5971 of Gomorrah.H6017

11: WhyH4100 the multitudeH7230 of your sacrificesH2077 saysH0559 Yahweh.H3068 I have had enoughH7646 of burnt offeringsH5930 of rams,H0352 and the fatH2459 of fed cattle-H4806 and the bloodH1818 of bulls,H6499 Or of lambs,H3532 or goatsH6260 notH3808 I do delight in.H2654

12: WhenH3588 you comeH0935 to appearH7200 before MeH6440 whoH4310 has requiredH1245 thisH2063 from your hand,H3027 to trampleH7429 My courts?H2691

13: noH3808 moreH3254 bringH0935 sacrifices-H4503 futileH7723 IncenseH7004 an abominationH8441 isH1931 the New MoonsH2320 and the Sabbaths,H7676 and the callingH7121 of assemblies,H4744 cannotH3808 I endureH3201 iniquity,H0205 and the sacred meeting.H6116

14: Your New MoonsH2320 and your appointed feastsH4150 hates-H8130 My soulH5315 they areH1961 to Me-H5921 a troubleH2960 I am wearyH3811 of bearing [them].H5375

15: And when you spread outH6566 your hands,H3709 I will hideH5956 My eyesH5869 from youH4480 Even,H1571 thoughH3588 you make manyH7235 prayers,H8605 notH0369 I will hear.H8085 Your handsH3027 bloodH1818 are full of.H4390

16: Wash yourselvesH7364 make yourselves clean-H2135 Put awayH5493 the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611 from beforeH5048 My eyes-H5869 CeaseH2308 to do evil-H7489

17: LearnH3925 to do good-H3190 SeekH1875 justice,H4941 RebukeH0833 the oppressor,H2541 DefendH8199 the fatherless,H3490 Plead forH7378 the widow.H0490

18: ComeH1980 now,H4994 and let us reason together,H3198 saysH0559 Yahweh,H3068 ThoughH0518 areH1961 your sinsH2399 like scarlet,H8144 as snow-H7950 they shall be as whiteH3835 ThoughH0518 they are redH0119 like crimson,H8438 as woolH6785 they shall be.H1961

19: IfH0518 you are willingH0014 and obedient,H8085 the goodH2898 of the land-H0776 You shall eat.H0398

20: But ifH0518 you refuseH3985 and rebel,H4784 the sword.H2719 You shall be devoured byH0398 forH3588 the mouthH6310 of YahwehH3068 has spoken.H1696

21: HowH0349 has becomeH1961 a harlot!H2181 the cityH7151 faithfulH0539 it was fullH4395 of justice-H4941 RighteousnessH6664 lodgedH3885 but nowH6258 murderers.H7523

22: Your silverH3701 has becomeH1961 dross,H5509 Your wineH5435 mixedH4107 with water.H4325

23: Your princesH8269 [are] rebellious,H5637 and companionsH2270 of thieves-H1590 EveryoneH3605 lovesH0157 bribes,H7810 and follows afterH7291 rewards.H8021 The fatherless,H3490 notH3808 they do defendH8199 and the causeH7379 of the widowH0490 norH3808 does comeH0935 before them.H0413

24: ThereforeH3651 saysH5002 the Lord,H0113 YahwehH3068 of hosts,H6635 the Mighty oneH0046 of Israel,H3478 Ah,H1945 I will rid MyselfH5162 of My adversaries,H6862 and take vengeanceH5358 on My enemies-H0341

25: and I will turnH7725 My handH3027 against youH5921 and purge awayH6884 thoroughlyH1252 your dross,H5509 and take awayH5493 allH3605 your alloy.H0913

26: And I will restoreH7725 your judgesH8199 as at the first,H7223 and your counselorsH3289 as at the beginning-H8462 afterwardH0310 afterwardH3651 shall be called,H7121 the cityH5892 of righteousness,H6664 the cityH7151 faithful.H0539

27: ZionH6726 with justice,H4941 shall be redeemedH6299 and her penitentsH7725 with righteousness.H6666

28: And the destructionH7667 of transgressorsH6586 and of the sinfulH2400 [shall be] together,H3162 and those who forsakeH5800 YahwehH3068 shall be consumed.H3615

29: ForH3588 they shall be ashamedH0954 of the oaksH0352 whichH0834 you have desired,H2530 and you shall be embarrassedH2659 because of the gardensH1593 whichH0834 you have chosen.H0977

30: ForH3588 you shall beH1961 as a terebinthH0424 fades,H5034 whose leafH5929 and as a gardenH1593 thatH0834 waterH4325 has noH0369

31: And shall beH1961 the strongH2634 as tinder,H5296 and the work of itH6467 as a spark,H5213 and shall burnH1197 the two of themH8147 together,H3162 and no oneH0369 will quench [them].H3518
