Isaiah 47

Darby Bible

1ComeH3381 downH3381 and sitH3427 in the dustH6083, virgin-daughter of BabylonH894! SitH3427 on the groundH776, — [there is] no throneH3678, O daughterH1323 of the ChaldeansH3778; for thou shalt no more be calledH7121 tenderH7390 and delicateH6028. 2TakeH3947 the millstones, and grindH2912 meal; remove thy veilH6777, lift up the train, uncoverH1540 the legH7785, passH5674 over riversH5104: 3thy nakednessH6172 shall be uncoveredH1540, yea, thy shame shall be seenH7200. I will takeH3947 vengeanceH5359, and I will meetH6293 none [to stay me]. ... 4Our RedeemerH1350, Jehovah of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034, the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. ... 5SitH3427 silent, and get thee into darknessH2822, daughterH1323 of the ChaldeansH3778; for thou shalt no more be calledH7121, MistressH1404 of kingdomsH4467. 6I was wroth with my peopleH5971, I polluted mine inheritanceH5159, and gaveH5414 them into thy handH3027: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the aged didst thou veryH3966 heavily lay thy yokeH5923; 7and thou saidst, I shall beH1961 a mistressH1404 for everH5769; so that thou didst not take these thingsH428 to heartH3820, thou didst not rememberH2142 the endH319 thereof. 8And nowH6258 hearH8085 this, thou voluptuous one, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thy heartH3824, It is I, and there is none but me; I shall not sitH3427 as a widowH490, neither shall I knowH3045 loss of children: 9yet these twoH8147 thingsH428 shall comeH935 upon thee in a momentH7281, in oneH259 dayH3117, loss of children and widowhood; they shall comeH935 upon thee in full measure for the multitudeH7230 of thy sorceriesH3785, for the great abundanceH7230 of thine enchantments. 10For thou hast confided in thy wickednessH7451: thou hast saidH559, None seeth me. Thy wisdomH2451 and thy knowledgeH1847, it hath seduced thee; and thou hast saidH559 in thy heartH3820, It is I, and there is none but me. 11But evilH7451 shall comeH935 upon thee — thou shalt not knowH3045 from whence it riseth; and mischief shall fallH5307 upon thee, which thou shalt not be ableH3201 to ward off; and desolation that thou suspectest not shall comeH935 upon thee suddenlyH6597. 12StandH5975 now with thine enchantments and with the multitudeH7230 of thy sorceriesH3785, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youthH5271; if so be thou shalt be ableH3201 to turn them to profitH3276, if so be thou mayest cause terror. 13Thou art weariedH3811 in the multitudeH7230 of thy counselsH6098. Let now the interpreters of the heavensH8064, the observers of the starsH3556, who predict according to the newH2320 moonsH2320 what shall comeH935 upon thee, standH5975 up, and saveH3467 thee. 14Behold, they shall beH1961 as stubbleH7179, the fireH784 shall burnH8313 them; they shall not deliverH5337 themselves from the power of the flameH3852: there shall not beH1961 a coalH1513 to warmH2552 at, [nor] fireH784 to sitH3427 before it. 15ThusH3651 shall they beH1961 unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, they that trafficked with thee from thy youthH5271: they shall wanderH8582 every oneH376 to his own quarter; there is none to saveH3467 thee.
