Isaiah 29:13-24

13Then the LordH136 saidH559, “BecauseH3282H3588 1thisH2088 peopleH5971 approachesH5066 Me with their 2wordsH6310 And honorsH3513 Me with their lipsH8193, But their heartH3820 isH7368 farH7368 awayH7368 from Me, And their 3reverenceH3372 for Me 4consistsH1961 of the commandmentH4687 of menH376 that is taughtH3925;14ThereforeH3651 beholdH2009, I will once againH3254 dealH6381 5marvelouslyH6381 with thisH2088 peopleH5971, wondrouslyH6382 marvelousH6381; And 6the wisdomH2451 of their wiseH2450 menH2450 will perishH6, And the understandingH998 of their menH995 whoH995 haveH995 understandingH995 will be concealedH5641.”

15WoeH1945 to those who deeplyH6009 7hideH5641 their 8plansH6098 from the LordH3068, And whose 9deedsH4639 are done in a darkH4285 placeH4285, And they sayH559, “10WhoH4310 seesH7200 us?” or “WhoH4310 knowsH3045 us?”16You turnH2016 things aroundH2016! Shall the potterH3335 be consideredH2803 11as equal with the clayH2563, That 12whatH4639 is madeH4639 would sayH559 to its makerH6213, “He did not makeH6213 me”; Or whatH3336 is formedH3335 sayH559 to him who formedH3335 it, “He has noH3808 understandingH995”?

17Is it not yetH5750 just a littleH4592 whileH4592 13Before LebanonH3844 will be turnedH7725 into a 14fertileH3759 fieldH3759, And the fertileH3759 fieldH3759 will be consideredH2803 as a forestH3293?18On that dayH3117 those who are 15deafH2795 will hearH8085 16wordsH1697 of a bookH5612, And out of their gloomH652 and darknessH2822 the 17eyesH5869 of those who are blindH5787 will seeH7200.19The 18afflictedH6035 also will increaseH3254 their joyH8057 in the LordH3068, And the 19needyH34 of mankindH120 will rejoiceH1523 in the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.20For the 20ruthlessH6184 will comeH656 toH656 anH656 endH656 and the 21scornerH3917 will be finishedH3615, Indeed 22allH3605 who 23areH8245 intentH8245 onH8245 doingH8245 evilH205 will be eliminatedH3772,21Who 24cause a personH120 to be indictedH2398 by a wordH1697, And 25setH6983 aH6983 trapH6983 for the arbitratorH3198 at the gateH8179, And 2627defraudH5186 the oneH6662 inH6662 theH6662 rightH6662 with 28meaninglessH8414 argumentsH8414.

22ThereforeH3651 thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, whoH834 redeemedH6299 29AbrahamH85, saysH559 concerningH413 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290: “JacobH3290 30will not beH954 ashamedH954 nowH6258, norH3808 will his faceH6440 turnH2357 paleH2357 nowH6258;23But whenH3588 31he seesH7200 his 32childrenH3206, the 33workH4639 of My handsH3027, in his midstH7130, They will sanctifyH6942 My nameH8034; Indeed, they will 34sanctifyH6942 the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of JacobH3290, And will standH6206 inH6206 aweH6206 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.24Those who 35errH8582 in 36mindH7307 will 37knowH3045 38the truthH998, And those who 39criticizeH7279 will 4041acceptH3925 instructionH3948.
