[1] “I am inquired of by those who didn’t ask.
I am found by those who didn’t seek me.
I said, ‘See me, see me,’ to a nation that was not called by my name.
[2] I have spread out my hands all day to a rebellious people,
who walk in a way that is not good,
after their own thoughts;
[3] a people who provoke me to my face continually,
sacrificing in gardens,
and burning incense on bricks;
[4] who sit among the graves,
and spend nights in secret places;
who eat pig’s meat,
and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
[5] who say, ‘Stay by yourself,
don’t come near to me,
for I am holier than you.’
These are smoke in my nose,
a fire that burns all day.
[6] “Behold, it is written before me:
I will not keep silence,
but will repay,
yes, I will repay into their bosom
[7] your own iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together”, says Yahweh,
“who have burned incense on the mountains,
and blasphemed me on the hills.
Therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom.”
[8] Yahweh says,
“As the new wine is found in the cluster,
and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’
so I will do for my servants’ sake,
that I may not destroy them all.
[9] I will bring offspring out of Jacob,
and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains.
My chosen will inherit it,
and my servants will dwell there.
[10] Sharon will be a fold of flocks,
and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in,
for my people who have sought me.
[11] “But you who forsake Yahweh,
who forget my holy mountain,
who prepare a table for Fortune,
and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
[12] I will destine you to the sword,
and you will all bow down to the slaughter;
because when I called, you didn’t answer.
When I spoke, you didn’t listen;
but you did that which was evil in my eyes,
and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
[13] Therefore the Lord Yahweh says,
“Behold, my servants will eat,
but you will be hungry;
behold, my servants will drink,
but you will be thirsty.
Behold, my servants will rejoice,
but you will be disappointed.
[14] Behold, my servants will sing for joy of heart,
but you will cry for sorrow of heart,
and will wail for anguish of spirit.
[15] You will leave your name for a curse to my chosen,
and the Lord Yahweh will kill you.
He will call his servants by another name,
[16] so that he who blesses himself on the earth will bless himself in the God of truth;
and he who swears on the earth will swear by the God of truth;
because the former troubles are forgotten,
and because they are hidden from my eyes.
[17] “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;
and the former things will not be remembered,
nor come into mind.
[18] But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create;
for, behold, I create Jerusalem to be a delight,
and her people a joy.
[19] I will rejoice in Jerusalem,
and delight in my people;
and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying
will be heard in her no more.
[20] “No more will there be an infant who only lives a few days,
nor an old man who has not filled his days;
for the child will die one hundred years old,
and the sinner being one hundred years old will be accursed.
[21] They will build houses and inhabit them.
They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
[22] They will not build and another inhabit.
They will not plant and another eat;
for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree,
and my chosen will long enjoy the work of their hands.
[23] They will not labor in vain
nor give birth for calamity;
for they are the offspring of Yahweh’s blessed
and their descendants with them.
[24] It will happen that before they call, I will answer;
and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
[25] The wolf and the lamb will feed together.
The lion will eat straw like the ox.
Dust will be the serpent’s food.
They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain,”
says Yahweh.
King James Version
[1] I am sought H1875 of them that asked H7592 not H3808 for me; I am found H4672 of them that sought H1245 me not: H3808 I said, H559 Behold H2005 me, behold me, unto a nation H1471 that was not called H7121 by my name. H8034 [2] I have spread out H6566 my hands H3027 all H3605 the day H3117 unto H413 a rebellious H5637 people, H5971 which walketh H1980 in a way H1870 that was not good, H2896 after H310 their own thoughts; H4284 [3] a people H5971 that provoketh me to anger H3707 continually H8548 to my face; H6440 that sacrificeth H2076 in gardens, H1593 and burneth incense H6999 upon H5921 altars of brick; H3843§ [4] which remain H3427 among the graves, H6913 and lodge H3885 in the monuments, H5341 which eat H398 swine’s H2386 flesh, H1320 and broth H4839§ H6564 of abominable H6292 things is in their vessels; H3627 [5] which say, H559 Stand H7126 by thyself, come not near H5066 to me; for I am holier H6942 than thou. These are a smoke H6227 in my nose, H639§ a fire H784 that burneth H3344 all H3605 the day. H3117 [6] Behold, it is written H3789 before H6440 me: I will not keep silence, H2814 but will recompense, H7999 even recompense H7999 into their bosom, H2436 [7] your iniquities, H5771 and the iniquities H5771 of your fathers H1 together, H3162 saith H559 the Lord, H3068 which H834 have burned incense H6999 upon H5921 the mountains, H2022 and blasphemed H2778 me upon the hills: H1389 therefore will I measure H4058 their former H7223 work H6468 into their bosom. H2436 [8] Thus saith H559 the Lord, H3068 As the new wine H8492 is found H4672 in the cluster, H811 and one saith, H559 Destroy H7843 it not; for a blessing H1293 is in it: so will I do H6213 for H3588 my servants’ H5650 sakes, that I may not destroy H7843 them all. [9] And I will bring forth H3318 a seed H2233 out of Jacob, H3290 and out of Judah H3063 an inheritor H3423 of my mountains: H2022 and mine elect H972 shall inherit H3423 it, and my servants H5650 shall dwell H7931 there. [10] And Sharon H8289 shall be a fold H5116 of flocks, H6629 and the valley H6010 of Achor H5911 a place for the herds H1241 to lie down in, H7258 for my people H5971 that have sought H1875 me. [11] But ye are they that forsake H5800 the Lord, H3068 that forget H7913 my holy H6944 H853 mountain, H2022 that prepare H6186 a table H7979 for that troop, H1409§ H1408 and that furnish H4390 the drink offering H4469 unto that number. H4507§ [12] Therefore will I number H4487 you to the sword, H2719 and ye shall all bow down H3766 to the slaughter: H2874 because when I called, H7121 ye H6030 did not H3808 answer; H6030 when I spake, H1696 ye H8085 did not H3808 hear; H8085 but did H6213 evil H7451 before mine eyes, H5869 and did choose H977 that wherein I delighted H2654 not. [13] Therefore thus saith H559 the Lord H136 God, H3069 Behold, my servants H5650 shall eat, H398 but ye shall be hungry: H7456 behold, my servants H5650 shall drink, H8354 but ye shall be thirsty: H6770 behold, my servants H5650 shall rejoice, H8055 but ye shall be ashamed: H954 [14] behold, my servants H5650 shall sing H7442 for joy H2898 of heart, H3820 but ye shall cry H6817 for sorrow H3511 of heart, H3820 and shall howl H3213 for vexation H7667§ of spirit. H7307 [15] And ye shall leave H3240 your name H8034 for a curse H7621 unto my chosen: H972 for the Lord H136 God H3069 shall slay H4191 thee, and call H7121 his servants H5650 by another H312 name: H8034 [16] that he who blesseth H1288 himself in the earth H776 shall bless H1288 himself in the God H430 of truth; H543 and he that sweareth H7650 in the earth H776 shall swear H7650 by the God H430 of truth; H543 because H3588 the former H7223 troubles H6869 are forgotten, H7911 and because they are hid H5641 from mine eyes. H5869 [17] For, behold, I create H1254 new H2319 heavens H8064 and a new H2319 earth: H776 and the former H7223 shall H2142 not H3808 be remembered, H2142 nor come H5927 into mind. H3820§ [18] But be ye glad H7797 and rejoice H1523 for H3588 ever H5703 in that which I create: H1254 for, behold, I create H1254 H853 Jerusalem H3389 a rejoicing, H1525 and her people H5971 a joy. H4885 [19] And I will rejoice H1523 in Jerusalem, H3389 and joy H7797 in my people: H5971 and the voice H6963 of weeping H1065 shall be no more heard H8085 in her, nor the voice H6963 of crying. H2201 [20] There H8033 shall be no more thence an infant H5764 of days, H3117 nor an old man H2205 that hath not filled H4390 his days: H3117 for H3588 the child H5288 shall die H4191 an hundred H3967 years H8141 old; H1121 but the sinner H2398 being an hundred H3967 years H8141 old H1121 shall be accursed. H7043 [21] And they shall build H1129 houses, H1004 and inhabit H3427 them; and they shall plant H5193 vineyards, H3754 and eat H398 the fruit H6529 of them. [22] They shall H1129 not H3808 build, H1129 and another H312 inhabit; H3427 they shall H5193 not H3808 plant, H5193 and another H312 eat: H398 for H3588 as the days H3117 of a tree H6086 are the days H3117 of my people, H5971 and mine elect H972 shall long enjoy H1086 the work H4639 of their hands. H3027§ [23] They shall H3021 not H3808 labour H3021 in vain, H7385 nor bring forth H3205 for H3588 trouble; H928 for they are the seed H2233 of the blessed H1288 of the Lord, H3068 and their offspring H6631 with them. [24] And it shall come to pass, that before they call, H7121 I will answer; H6030 and while they are yet speaking, H1696 I will hear. H8085 [25] The wolf H2061 and the lamb H2924 shall feed H7462 together, H259 and the lion H738 shall eat H398 straw H8401 like the bullock: H1241 and dust H6083 shall be the serpent’s H5175 meat. H3899 They shall H7489 not H3808 hurt H7489 nor destroy H7843 in all my holy H6944 mountain, H2022 saith H559 the Lord. H3068
