Isaiah 29:1-14

1WoeH1945 to ArielH740, to ArielH740, the cityH7151 where DavidH1732 dweltH2583! addH5595 ye yearH8141 to yearH8141; let them killH5362 sacrificesH2282.123 2Yet I will distressH6693 ArielH740, and there shall be heavinessH8386 and sorrowH592: and it shall be unto me as ArielH740. 3And I will campH2583 against thee round aboutH1754, and will lay siegeH6696 against thee with a mountH4674, and I will raiseH6965 fortsH4694 against thee. 4And thou shalt be brought downH8213, and shalt speakH1696 out of the groundH776, and thy speechH565 shall be lowH7817 out of the dustH6083, and thy voiceH6963 shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spiritH178, out of the groundH776, and thy speechH565 shall whisperH6850 out of the dustH6083.4 5Moreover the multitudeH1995 of thy strangersH2114 shall be like smallH1851 dustH80, and the multitudeH1995 of the terrible onesH6184 shall be as chaffH4671 that passeth awayH5674: yea, it shall be at an instantH6621 suddenlyH6597. 6Thou shalt be visitedH6485 of YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 with thunderH7482, and with earthquakeH7494, and greatH1419 noiseH6963, with stormH5492 and tempestH5591, and the flameH3851 of devouringH398 fireH784.

7And the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 that fightH6633 against ArielH740, even all that fightH6638 against her and her munitionH4685, and that distressH6693 her, shall be as a dreamH2472 of a nightH3915 visionH2377. 8It shall even be as when an hungryH7457 man dreamethH2492, and, behold, he eatethH398; but he awakethH6974, and his soulH5315 is emptyH7386: or as whenH834 a thirsty manH6771 dreamethH2492, and, behold, he drinkethH8354; but he awakethH6974, and, behold, he is faintH5889, and his soulH5315 hath appetiteH8264: so shall the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 be, that fightH6633 against mountH2022 ZionH6726.

9StayH4102 yourselves, and wonderH8539; cry ye outH8173, and cryH8173: they are drunkenH7937, but not with wineH3196; they staggerH5128, but not with strong drinkH7941.5 10For YhwhH3068 hath poured outH5258 upon you the spiritH7307 of deep sleepH8639, and hath closedH6105 your eyesH5869: the prophetsH5030 and your rulersH7218, the seersH2374 hath he coveredH3680.6 11And the visionH2380 of all is become unto you as the wordsH1697 of a bookH5612 that is sealedH2856, which men deliverH5414 to one that is learnedH3045, sayingH559, ReadH7121 this, I pray thee: and he saithH559, I cannotH3201; for it is sealedH2856:7 12And the bookH5612 is deliveredH5414 to him that is not learnedH5612H3045, sayingH559, ReadH7121 this, I pray thee: and he saithH559, I am not learnedH3045.

13Wherefore the LordH136 saidH559, ForasmuchH3282 as this peopleH5971 draw nearH5066 me with their mouthH6310, and with their lipsH8193 do honourH3513 me, but have removedH7368 their heartH3820 farH7368 from me, and their fearH3374 toward me is taughtH3925 by the preceptH4687 of menH582: 14Therefore, behold, I will proceedH3254 to do a marvellous workH6381 among this peopleH5971, even a marvellous workH6381 and a wonderH6382: for the wisdomH2451 of their wiseH2450 men shall perishH6, and the understandingH998 of their prudentH995 men shall be hidH5641.8
