[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 in the earth will bless himself in the God of truth;
and he who swears in 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.
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.

King James Version
[1] I am soughtH1875(NiphPerf) of [them that] askedH7592(QalPerf) notH3808 [for me]; I am foundH4672(NiphPerf) of [them that] soughtH1245(PielPerf) me not:H3808 I said,H559(QalPerf) Behold me, behold me, unto a nationH1471 [that] was not calledH7121(PualPerf) by my name.H8034 [2] I have spread outH6566(PielPerf) my handsH3027 all the dayH3117 unto a rebelliousH5637(QalActPtc) people,H5971 which walkethH1980(QalActPtc) in a wayH1870 [that was] not good,H2896 afterH310 their own thoughts;H4284 [3] A peopleH5971 that provoketh me to angerH3707(HiphPtc) continuallyH8548 to my face;H6440 that sacrificethH2076(QalActPtc) in gardens,H1593 and burneth incenseH6999(PielPtc) upon altars of brick;H3843 [4] Which remainH3427(QalActPtc) among the graves,H6913 and lodgeH3885(QalImpf) in the monuments,H5341(QalPasPtc) which eatH398(QalActPtc) swine’sH2386 flesh,H1320 and brothH4839(Qere) of abominableH6292 [things is in] their vessels;H3627 [5] Which say,H559(QalActPtc) StandH7126(QalImpv) by thyself, come not nearH5066(QalImpf) to me; for I am holierH6942(QalPerf) than thou. These [are] a smokeH6227 in my nose,H639 a fireH784 that burnethH3344(QalActPtc) all the day.H3117 [6] Behold, [it is] writtenH3789(QalPasPtc) beforeH6440 me: I will not keep silence,H2814(QalImpf) but will recompense,H7999(PielPerf) even recompenseH7999(PielPerf) into their bosom,H2436 [7] Your iniquities,H5771 and the iniquitiesH5771 of your fathersH1 together,H3162 saithH559(QalPerf) the Lord,H3068 which have burned incenseH6999(PielPerf) upon the mountains,H2022 and blasphemedH2778(PielPerf) me upon the hills:H1389 therefore will I measureH4058(QalPerf) their formerH7223 workH6468 into their bosom.H2436 [8] Thus saithH559(QalPerf) the Lord,H3068 As the new wineH8492 is foundH4672(NiphImpf) in the cluster,H811 and [one] saith,H559(QalPerf) DestroyH7843(HiphImpf) it not; for a blessingH1293 [is] in it: so will I doH6213(QalImpf) for my servants’H5650 sakes, that I may not destroyH7843(HiphInf) them all. [9] And I will bring forthH3318(HiphPerf) a seedH2233 out of Jacob,H3290 and out of JudahH3063 an inheritorH3423(QalActPtc) of my mountains:H2022 and mine electH972 shall inheritH3423(QalPerf) it, and my servantsH5650 shall dwellH7931(QalImpf) there. [10] And SharonH8289 shall be a foldH5116 of flocks,H6629 and the valleyH6010 of AchorH5911 a place for the herdsH1241 to lie down in,H7258 for my peopleH5971 that have soughtH1875(QalPerf) me. [11] But ye [are] they that forsakeH5800(QalActPtc) the Lord,H3068 that forgetH7913 my holyH6944 mountain,H2022 that prepareH6186(QalActPtc) a tableH7979 for that troop,H1409(QK) and that furnishH4390(PielPtc) the drink offeringH4469 unto that number.H4507 [12] Therefore will I numberH4487(QalPerf) you to the sword,H2719 and ye shall all bow downH3766(QalImpf) to the slaughter:H2874 because when I called,H7121(QalPerf) ye did not answer;H6030(QalPerf) when I spake,H1696(PielPerf) ye did not hear;H8085(QalPerf) but didH6213(QalImpf) evilH7451 before mine eyes,H5869 and did chooseH977(QalPerf) [that] wherein I delightedH2654(QalPerf) not. [13] Therefore thus saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH136 God,H3069 Behold, my servantsH5650 shall eat,H398(QalImpf) but ye shall be hungry:H7456(QalImpf) behold, my servantsH5650 shall drink,H8354(QalImpf) but ye shall be thirsty:H6770(QalImpf) behold, my servantsH5650 shall rejoice,H8055(QalImpf) but ye shall be ashamed:H954(QalImpf) [14] Behold, my servantsH5650 shall singH7442(QalImpf) for joyH2898 of heart,H3820 but ye shall cryH6817(QalImpf) for sorrowH3511 of heart,H3820 and shall howlH3213(HiphImpf) for vexationH7667 of spirit.H7307 [15] And ye shall leaveH3240(HiphPerf) your nameH8034 for a curseH7621 unto my chosen:H972 for the LordH136 GodH3069 shall slayH4191(HiphPerf) thee, and callH7121(QalImpf) his servantsH5650 by anotherH312 name:H8034 [16] That he who blessethH1288(HithPtc) himself in the earthH776 shall blessH1288(HithImpf) himself in the GodH430 of truth;H543 and he that swearethH7650(NiphPtc) in the earthH776 shall swearH7650(NiphImpf) by the GodH430 of truth;H543 because the formerH7223 troublesH6869 are forgotten,H7911(NiphPerf) and because they are hidH5641(NiphPerf) from mine eyes.H5869 [17] For, behold, I createH1254(QalActPtc) newH2319 heavensH8064 and a newH2319 earth:H776 and the formerH7223 shall not be remembered,H2142(NiphImpf) nor comeH5927(QalImpf) into mind.H3820 [18] But be ye gladH7797(QalImpv) and rejoiceH1523(QalImpv) for everH5703 [in that] which I create:H1254(QalActPtc) for, behold, I createH1254(QalActPtc) JerusalemH3389 a rejoicing,H1525 and her peopleH5971 a joy.H4885 [19] And I will rejoiceH1523(QalPerf) in Jerusalem,H3389 and joyH7797(QalPerf) in my people:H5971 and the voiceH6963 of weepingH1065 shall be no more heardH8085(NiphImpf) in her, nor the voiceH6963 of crying.H2201 [20] There shall be no more thence an infantH5764 of days,H3117 nor an old manH2205 that hath not filledH4390(PielImpf) his days:H3117 for the childH5288 shall dieH4191(QalImpf) an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 old;H1121 but the sinnerH2398(QalActPtc) [being] an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 oldH1121 shall be accursed.H7043(PualImpf) [21] And they shall buildH1129(QalPerf) houses,H1004 and inhabitH3427(QalPerf) [them]; and they shall plantH5193(QalPerf) vineyards,H3754 and eatH398(QalPerf) the fruitH6529 of them. [22] They shall not build,H1129(QalImpf) and anotherH312 inhabit;H3427(QalImpf) they shall not plant,H5193(QalImpf) and anotherH312 eat:H398(QalImpf) for as the daysH3117 of a treeH6086 [are] the daysH3117 of my people,H5971 and mine electH972 shall long enjoyH1086(PielImpf) the workH4639 of their hands.H3027 [23] They shall not labourH3021(QalImpf) in vain,H7385 nor bring forthH3205(QalImpf) for trouble;H928 for they [are] the seedH2233 of the blessedH1288(QalPasPtc) of the Lord,H3068 and their offspringH6631 with them. [24] And it shall come to pass, that before they call,H7121(QalImpf) I will answer;H6030(QalImpf) and while they are yet speaking,H1696(PielPtc) I will hear.H8085(QalImpf) [25] The wolfH2061 and the lambH2924 shall feedH7462(QalImpf) together,H259 and the lionH738 shall eatH398(QalImpf) strawH8401 like the bullock:H1241 and dustH6083 [shall be] the serpent’sH5175 meat.H3899 They shall not hurtH7489(HiphImpf) nor destroyH7843(HiphImpf) in all my holyH6944 mountain,H2022 saithH559(QalPerf) the Lord.H3068
