Isaiah 59

< Previous  Home  Next >

1: Behold,H2005 notH3808 is shortened,H7114 handH3027 of YahwehH3068 that it cannot save-H3467 norH3808 heavy,H3513 His earH0241 that it cannot hear.H8085

2: ForH3588 butH0518 your iniquitiesH5771 haveH1961 separatedH0914 youH0996 fromH0996 your God,H0430 and your sinsH2403 have hiddenH5641 [His] faceH6440 from youH4480 so that He will not hear.H8085

3: ForH3588 your handsH3709 are defiledH1351 with blood,H1818 and your fingersH0676 with iniquity-H5771 Your lipsH8193 have spokenH1696 lies,H8267 Your tongueH3956 perversityH5766 has muttered.H1897

4: No oneH0369 callsH7121 for justice,H6664 and NotH0369 does [any] pleadH8199 for truth.H0530 They trustH0982 inH5921 empty [words],H8414 and speakH1696 lies-H7723 they conceiveH2029 evil,H5999 and bring forthH3205 iniquity.H0205

5: Eggs,H1000 vipers'H6848 they hatchH1234 and the web-H6980 of spiderH5908 weaveH0707 He who eatsH0398 of their eggsH1000 dies,H4191 and [from] that which is crushedH2116 breaks outH1234 a viper.H0660

6: Their websH6980 notH3808 will becomeH1961 garments,H0899 norH3808 will they cover themselvesH3680 with their works-H4639 their works [are]H4639 worksH4639 of iniquity,H0205 and the actH6467 of violenceH2555 [is] in their hands.H3709

7: Their feetH7272 to evil,H7451 runH7323 and they make hasteH4116 to shedH8210 blood-H1818 innocentH5355 their thoughts [are]H4284 thoughtsH4284 of iniquity-H0205 WastingH7701 and destruction [are]H7667 in their paths.H4546

8: The wayH1870 of peaceH7965 not-H3808 they have knownH3045 and [there is] noH0369 justiceH4941 in their ways-H4570 paths-H5410 they have made crookedH6140 themselvesH1992 WhoeverH3605 takesH1869 notH3808 shall knowH3045 peace.H7965

9: UponH5921 thusH3651 is farH7368 justiceH4941 from usH4480 norH3808 does overtake usH5381 righteousnessH6666 we lookH6960 for light,H0216 but there isH2009 blackness-H2822 for brightness,H5054 in darknessH0653 [but] we walk.H1980

10: We grope forH1659 like the blind,H5787 the wallH7023 and as if [we had] noH0369 eyes-H5869 we gropeH1659 we stumbleH3782 at noondayH6672 as at twilight-H5399 in desolate placesH0820 [We are] as dead [men].H4191

11: We growlH1993 like bears,H1677 allH3605 and like doves-H3123 sadlyH1897 moanH1897 we lookH6960 for justice,H4941 but [there is] none-H0369 for salvation,H3444 [but] it is farH7368 from us.H4480

12: ForH3588 are multipliedH7235 our transgressionsH6588 before YouH5048 and our sinsH2403 testifyH6030 forH3588 our transgressions [are]H6588 with usH0854 and [as for] our iniquities,H5771 we know them.H3045

13: In transgressingH6586 and lyingH3584 against Yahweh,H3068 and departingH5253 fromH0310 our God,H0430 SpeakingH1696 oppressionH6233 and revolt,H5627 ConceivingH2029 and utteringH1897 from the heartH3820 wordsH1697 of falsehood.H8267

14: And is turnedH5253 back,H0268 JusticeH4941 and righteousnessH6666 afar off-H7350 standsH5975 forH3588 is fallenH3782 in the street,H7339 truthH0571 and equityH5229 cannotH3808 -H3201 enter.H0935

15: So-H1961 truthH0571 fails-H5737 and he [who] departsH5493 from evilH7451 makes himself a prey-H7997 and saw [it]H7200 YahwehH3068 and it displeased HimH7489 in His sightH5869 thatH3588 [there was] noH0369 justice.H4941

16: And He sawH7200 thatH3588 [there was] noH0369 man,H0376 and wonderedH8074 thatH3588 [there was] noH0369 intercessor-H6293 therefore brought salvationH3467 His own armH2220 and His own righteousness,H6666 itH1931 sustained Him.H5564

17: For He put onH3847 righteousnessH6666 as a breastplate,H8302 and a helmetH3553 of salvationH3444 on His head-H7218 and He put onH3847 the garmentsH0899 of vengeanceH5359 for clothing,H8516 and was cladH5844 as a cloakH4598 with zeal.H7068

18: According toH5921 [their] deeds,H1578 accordinglyH5921 He will repay,H7999 FuryH2534 to His adversaries,H6862 RecompenseH1576 to His enemies-H0341 the coastlandsH0339 fullyH1576 He will repay.H7999

19: So shall they fearH3372 from the west,H4628 -H0853 the nameH8034 of YahwehH3068 and from the risingH4217 of the sun.H8121 -H0853 His gloryH3519 whenH3588 comes inH0935 like a flood,H5104 the enemyH6862 the SpiritH7307 of YahwehH3068 will lift up a standardH5127

20: And will comeH0935 to Zion,H6726 the RedeemerH1350 and to those who turn fromH7725 transgressionH6588 in Jacob,H3290 saysH5002 Yahweh.H3068

21: And as for Me,H0589 this [is]H2063 My covenantH1285 with themH0854 saysH0559 Yahweh-H3068 My SpiritH7307 who [is]H0834 upon youH5921 and My wordsH1697 whichH0834 I have putH7760 in your mouth,H6310 notH3808 shall departH4185 from your mouth,H6310 nor from the mouthH6310 of your descendants,H2233 nor from the mouthH6310 of descendantsH2233 your descendants',H2233 saysH0559 Yahweh,H3068 from this timeH6258 andH5704 forevermore.H5769
