Isaiah 37:22-32

22thisH2088 is the wordH1697 that the LordH3068 has spokenH1696 againstH5921 him: “She has shownH959 contemptH959 for you and deridedH3932 you, The 1virginH1330 2daughterH1323 of ZionH6726; The daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389 has 3shakenH5128 her headH7218 behindH310 you!23WhomH4310 have you 4tauntedH2778 and blasphemedH1442? And againstH5921 whomH4310 have you raisedH7311 your voiceH6963 And 5haughtilyH4791 6raisedH5375 your eyesH5869? AgainstH413 the 7HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478!24ThroughH3027 your servantsH5650 you have tauntedH2778 the LordH136, And you have saidH559, ‘With my manyH7230 chariotsH7393 I cameH5927 upH5927 to the heightsH4791 of the mountainsH2022, To the remotestH3411 partsH3411 of 8LebanonH3844; And I cutH3772 downH3772 its tallH6967 9cedarsH730 and its choiceH4004 junipersH1265. And I will comeH935 to its 10highestH4791 peakH7093, its thickestH3759 11forestH3293.25I dugH6979 wells and drankH8354 watersH4325, And 12with the soleH3709 of my feetH6471 I driedH2717 upH2717 AllH3605 the canalsH2975 of 13EgyptH4693.’2614Have you not heardH8085? LongH7350 agoH7350 I didH6213 it, From ancientH6924 timesH3117H6924 I 15plannedH3335 it. NowH6258 16I have broughtH935 it aboutH935 That 17you would turnH7582 fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 into 18ruinedH5327 heapsH1530.27Therefore their inhabitantsH3427 were 19powerlessH7116H3027, They were shatteredH2865 and putH954 toH954 shameH954; They were like the 20vegetationH6212 of the fieldH7704 and the greenH3419 grassH1877, Like 21grassH2682 on the housetopsH1406 22that is scorchedH7710 beforeH6440 it has grownH7054.28But I 23knowH3045 your sittingH3427 downH3427, Your goingH3318 outH3318, your comingH935 inH935, And your ragingH7264 againstH413 Me.29BecauseH3282 of your ragingH7264 againstH413 Me And because your 24complacencyH7600 has comeH5927 upH5927 to My earsH241, I will putH7760 My 25hookH2397 in your noseH639 And My 26bridleH4964 in your lipsH8193, And I will turnH7725 you backH7725 27by the wayH1870 that you cameH935.

30“Then thisH2088 shall be the signH226 for you: 28you will eatH398 this yearH8141 whatH5599 29growsH5599 ofH5599 itselfH5599, in the secondH8145 yearH8141 whatH5501 growsH5501 from the same, and in the thirdH7992 yearH8141 sowH2232, harvestH7114, plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and eatH398 their fruitH6529. 31The 30survivorsH6413 that are 31leftH7604 of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 will againH3254 32take rootH8328 downwardH4295 and bearH6213 fruitH6529 upwardH4605. 32For outH3318 of JerusalemH3389 a 33remnantH7611 will goH3318, and out of MountH2022 ZionH6726 survivorsH6413. The 34zealH7068 of the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 will performH6213 thisH2088.”’
