Isaiah 28:7-29

7And even these reelH7686 with wineH3196, and staggerH8582 with strongH7941 drinkH7941; the priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 reelH7686 with strongH7941 drinkH7941, they are swallowedH1104 up of wineH3196, they staggerH8582 with strongH7941 drinkH7941; they errH8582 in vision, they stumble in judgment. 8For all tablesH7979 are fullH4390 of vomitH6892 and filthiness, so that there is no placeH4725 clean.

9Whom will he teachH3384 knowledgeH1844? and whom will he make to understandH995 the messageH8052? them that are weanedH1580 from the milkH2461, and drawn from the breastsH7699? 10For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a littleH2191, there a littleH2191.

11Nay, but bymen of strange lipsH8193 and with another tongueH3956 will he speakH1696 to this peopleH5971; 12to whom he saidH559, This is the restH5117, giveH5117 ye restH5117 to him that is wearyH5889; and this is the refreshing: yet they wouldH14 not hearH8085. 13Therefore shall the wordH1697 of Jehovah beH1961 unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a littleH2191, there a littleH2191; that they may go, and fall backwardH268, and beH1961 brokenH7665, and snared, and takenH3920.

14Wherefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 of Jehovah, ye scoffers, that ruleH4910 this peopleH5971 that is in JerusalemH3389: 15Because ye have saidH559, We have madeH6213 a covenantH1285 with deathH4194, and with SheolH7585 are we at agreement; when the overflowingH7857 scourge shall passH5674 through, it shall not comeH935 unto us; for we have madeH6213 liesH8267 our refugeH4268, and under falsehoodH8267 have we hidH5641 ourselves: 16thereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah, Behold, I lay in ZionH6726 for a foundation a stoneH68, a tried stoneH68, a preciousH3368 corner-stoneH68 of sure foundation: he that believeth shall not be in haste. 17And I will makeH7760 justiceH4941 the line, and righteousnessH6666 the plummet; and the hailH1259 shall sweep away the refugeH4268 of liesH3577, and the watersH4325 shall overflowH7857 the hiding-place. 18And your covenantH1285 with deathH4194 shall beH1961 annulled, and your agreement with SheolH7585 shall not standH6965; when the overflowingH7857 scourgeH7752 shall passH5674 through, then ye shall beH1961 trodden down by it. 19As oftenH1767 as it passeth through, it shall takeH3947 you; for morningH1242 by morningH1242 shall it passH5674 through, by dayH3117 and by nightH3915: and it shall beH1961 nought but terror to understandH995 the messageH8052. 20For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it; and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it. 21For Jehovah will riseH6965 up as in mount Perazim, he will be wroth as in the valleyH6010 of GibeonH1391; that he may do his workH4639, his strangeH2114 workH4639, and bring to pass his actH6213, his strangeH2114 actH6213. 22NowH6258 thereforeH6258 be ye not scoffers, lestH6435 your bonds be madeH2388 strongH2388; for a decree of destructionH3617 have I heardH8085 from the LordH136, Jehovah of hostsH6635, upon the whole earthH776.

23GiveH238 ye earH238, and hearH8085 my voiceH6963; hearken, and hearH8085 my speech. 24Doth he that ploweth to sowH2232 plowH2790 continually? doth he continually openH6605 and harrowH7702 his groundH127? 25When he hath levelled the faceH6440 thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatterH6327 the cummin, and putH7760 in the wheatH2406 in rows, and the barleyH8184 in the appointedH7760 placeH7760, and the speltH3698 in the border thereof? 26For his GodH430 doth instructH3384 him aright, and doth teachH3384 him. 27For the fitches are not threshedH1758 with a sharp threshingH1758 instrument, neither is a cartH5699 wheelH212 turnedH5437 about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staffH4294, and the cummin with a rodH7626. 28BreadH3899 grain is ground; for he will not be always threshingH1758 it: and though the wheel of his cartH5699 and his horses scatter it, he doth not grind it. 29This alsoH1571 cometh forthH3318 from Jehovah of hostsH6635, who is wonderfulH6381 in counselH6098, and excellent in wisdomH8454.
