Isaiah 10

1WoeH1945 unto them that decreeH2710 unrighteousH205 decrees, and to the writers that writeH3789 perverseness: 2to turnH5186 asideH5186 the needyH6041 from judgmentH4941, and to takeH962 awayH5186 the rightH4941 of the poorH6041 of my peopleH5971, that widowsH490 may be their spoilH7998, and that they may makeH4941 the fatherlessH3490 their preyH962! 3And whatH4100 will ye doH6213 in the dayH3117 of visitation, and in the desolation whichH4310 shall comeH935 from farH4801? to whomH4310 will ye fleeH5127 for helpH5833? and whereH575 will ye leaveH5800 your gloryH3519? 4They shall onlyH5307 bowH3766 downH5307 underH8478 the prisonersH616, and shall fallH5307 underH8478 the slainH2026. For allH3605 this his angerH639 is notH3808 turnedH7725 awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretchedH5186 outH5186 stillH5750. 5HoH1945 Assyrian, the rodH7626 of mine angerH639, the staffH4294 in whose handH3027 is mine indignationH2195! 6I will sendH7971 him againstH5921 a profane nationH1471, and againstH5921 the peopleH5971 of my wrathH5678 will I giveH7760 him a chargeH5921, to takeH7760 the spoilH7998, and to takeH7760 the preyH957, and to treadH4823 them downH4823 like the mire of the streetsH2351. 7Howbeit he meaneth notH3808 soH3651, neitherH3808 doth his heartH3824 thinkH3824 soH3651; but it is in his heartH3824 to destroyH8045, and to cutH3772 offH3772 nationsH1471 notH3808 a fewH4592. 8For he saith, Are notH3808 my princesH8269 allH3162 of them kingsH4428? 9Is notH3808 Calno as CarchemishH3751? is notH3808 HamathH2574 as ArpadH774? is notH3808 SamariaH8111 as DamascusH1834? 10As my handH3027 hath foundH4672 the kingdomsH4467 of the idolsH457, whoseH834 gravenH6456 imagesH6456 didH834 excel them of JerusalemH3389 and of SamariaH8111; 11shall I notH3808, as I have doneH6213 unto SamariaH8111 and herH3651 idolsH457, soH3651 doH6213 to JerusalemH3389 and herH3651 idolsH457? 12Wherefore it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, that when the LordH136 hath performed his wholeH3605 workH4639 uponH5921 mountH2022 ZionH6726 and on JerusalemH3389, I will punishH6485 the fruitH6529 of the stout heartH3824 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and the gloryH8597 of his high looksH5869. 13For he hath saidH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have doneH6213 it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I am prudentH995: and I have removedH5493 the bounds of the peoplesH5971, and have robbed their treasuresH6264, and I have broughtH3381 downH3381 as a valiantH47 manH47 them that sitH3427 on thronesH3427: 14and my handH3027 hath foundH4672 as a nestH7064 the richesH2428 of the peoplesH5971; and as one gathereth eggsH1000 that are forsaken, have I gatheredH622 allH3605 the earthH776: and there was noneH3808 that moved the wingH3671, or that openedH6475 the mouthH6310, or chirpedH6850. 15Shall the axeH1631 boastH6286 itselfH6286 againstH5921 him that heweth therewith? shall the sawH4883 magnifyH1431 itselfH6286 againstH5921 him that shaketh it? as ifH518 a rodH7626 should shakeH5130 them that liftH7311 it upH7311, or as ifH518 a staffH4294 should liftH7311 upH7311 him that is notH3808 woodH6086. 16Therefore shall the LordH3068, the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, sendH7971 among his fat ones leanness; and underH8478 his gloryH3519 there shall be kindledH3344 a burningH3344 like the burningH3344 of fireH784. 17And the lightH216 of IsraelH3478 shall be for a fireH784, and his HolyH6918 One for a flameH3852: and it shall burnH1197 and devourH398 his thornsH7898 and his briersH7898 in one dayH3117. 18And he shall consumeH3615 the gloryH3519 of his forestH3293, and of his fruitfulH3759 fieldH3759, both soulH5315 and bodyH1320: and it shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth. 19And the remnantH7605 of the treesH6086 of his forestH3293 shall be fewH4557, that a childH5288 may writeH3789 them. 20And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961 in that dayH3117, that the remnantH7605 of IsraelH3478, and they that are escapedH6413 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, shall noH3808 moreH5750 againH5750 stay uponH5921 him that smoteH5221 them; but shall stay uponH5921 the LORDH3068, the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478, in truthH571. 21A remnantH7605 shall returnH7725, even the remnantH7605 of JacobH3290, unto the mightyH1368 GodH410. 22For thoughH3588 thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be as the sandH2344 of the seaH3220, onlyH518 a remnantH7605 of them shall returnH7725: a consumption is determinedH2782, overflowingH7857 with righteousnessH6666. 23For a consummation, and that determinedH2782, shall the LordH136, the LORDH136 of hostsH6635, makeH6213 in the midstH7130 of allH3605 the earthH776. 24Therefore thusH3541 saith the LordH136, the LORDH136 of hostsH6635, O my peopleH5971 that dwellest in ZionH6726, be notH408 afraidH3372 of the Assyrian: though he smiteH5221 thee with the rodH7626, and liftH5375 upH5375 his staffH4294 againstH5921 thee, afterH5921 the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714. 25For yet a veryH4213 littleH4592 whileH5750, and the indignationH2195 shall be accomplishedH3615, and mine angerH639, in their destructionH8399. 26And the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall stirH5782 upH5375 againstH5921 him a scourgeH7752, as in the slaughterH4347 of MidianH4080 at the rockH6697 of OrebH6159: and his rodH4294 shall be over the seaH3220, and he shall liftH5375 it upH5375 afterH5921 the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714. 27And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961 in that dayH3117, that his burdenH5448 shall departH5493 from offH5921 thy shoulderH7926, and his yokeH5923 from offH5921 thy neckH6677, and the yokeH5923 shall be destroyed becauseH5921 of the anointing. 28He is comeH935 to AiathH5857, he is passedH5674 throughH5674 MigronH4051; at MichmashH4363 he layeth upH5921 his baggageH3627: 29they are gone over the passH5674; they have takenH5674 upH1387 their lodgingH4411 at GebaH1387: RamahH7414 trembleth; GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586 is fledH5127. 30CryH6963 aloud with thy voiceH6963, O daughterH1323 of GallimH1554! hearken, O LaishahH3919! O thou poorH6041 AnathothH6068! 31MadmenahH4088 is a fugitiveH5074; the inhabitantsH3427 of GebimH1374 gather themselves to fleeH5074. 32This very dayH3117 shall he haltH5975 at NobH5011: he shaketh his handH3027 at the mountH2022 of the daughterH1323 of Zion, the hillH2022 of JerusalemH3389. 33BeholdH2009, the LordH3068, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, shall lopH5586 the boughsH6288 with terror: and the highH1364 ones of statureH6967 shall be hewn downH1438, and the loftyH7311 shall be broughtH7311 lowH8213. 34And he shall cut downH5307 the thicketsH5442 of the forestH3293 with ironH1270, and LebanonH3844 shall fallH5307 by a mightyH117 one.
