ISAIAH
1The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah.7 uses2Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.4 uses3The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: [but] Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.9 uses4Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.11 uses
5Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.8 uses6From the sole of the foot even unto the head [there is] no soundness in it; [but] wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.5 uses7Your country [is] desolate, your cities [are] burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and [it is] desolate, as overthrown by strangers.NT use8And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.3 uses9Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, [and] we should have been like unto Gomorrah.14 uses
10Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.12 uses11To what purpose [is] the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.15 uses12When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?14 uses13Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; [it is] iniquity, even the solemn meeting.19 uses14Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear [them].13 uses15And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.25 uses16Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;30 uses17Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.19 uses18Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.25 uses19If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:7 uses20But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken [it].3 uses
21How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.9 uses22Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:2 uses23Thy princes [are] rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.11 uses24Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:4 uses
25And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:3 uses26And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.4 uses27Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.7 uses
28And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners [shall be] together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.6 uses29For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.NT use30For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.NT use31And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench [them].7 uses
