Revised Version 1895
Isaiah 28:7-19
7But theseH428 also have erredH7686 throughH4480 wineH3196, and throughH4480 strongH7941 drinkH7941 are goneH8582 astrayH8582; the priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 have erredH7686 throughH4480 strongH7941 drinkH7941, they are swallowedH1104 upH1104 of wineH3196, they are goneH8582 astrayH8582 throughH4480 strongH7941 drinkH7941; they errH8582 in vision, they stumble in judgmentH6417.
8For allH3605 tablesH7979 are fullH4390 of vomitH6892 and filthinessH6675, soH3588 that there is noH1097 placeH4725 clean.
9WhomH4310 will he teachH3384 knowledgeH1844? and whomH4310 will he make to understandH995 the messageH8052? them that are weanedH1580 from the milkH2461, and drawn from the breastsH7699?
10For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; hereH8033 a littleH2191, there a littleH2191.
11Nay, but by menH5971 of strange lipsH8193 and with anotherH312 tongueH3956 will he speakH1696 to this peopleH5971:
12to whomH834 he saidH559, This is the restH5117, giveH5117 ye restH5117 to him that is wearyH5889; and this is the refreshing: yet they would notH3808 hearH8085.
13Therefore shall the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 be unto them precept uponH1961 precept, precept uponH1961 precept; lineH1961 uponH1961 lineH1961, lineH1961 uponH1961 lineH1961; hereH8033 a littleH2191, there a littleH2191; that they may goH1961, and fallH3782 backwardH268, and be brokenH7665, and snaredH3369, and takenH3920.
14Wherefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye scornfulH3944 menH376, that ruleH4910 this peopleH5971 whichH834 is in JerusalemH3389:
15BecauseH3588 ye have saidH559, WeH3588 have madeH6213 a covenantH1285 with deathH4194, and with hell are weH3588 at agreementH1285; when the overflowingH7857 scourge shall passH5674 throughH5674, it shall notH3808 comeH935 unto usH3588; for weH3588 have madeH6213 liesH8267 our refugeH4268, and underH935 falsehoodH8267 have weH3588 hidH5641 ourselves:
16therefore thusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136, BeholdH2005, I layH3245 in ZionH6726 for a foundationH3245 a stoneH68, a tried stoneH68, a preciousH3368 cornerH6438 stoneH68 of sureH539 foundationH3245: he that believeth shall notH3808 makeH3245 haste.
17And I will makeH7760 judgmentH4941 the line, and righteousnessH6666 the plummetH4949: and the hailH1259 shall sweepH3261 awayH7857 the refugeH4268 of liesH3577, and the watersH4325 shall overflowH7857 the hidingH5643 placeH7760.
18And your covenantH1285 with deathH4194 shall be disannulled, and your agreementH1285 with hell shall notH3808 standH6965; when the overflowingH7857 scourgeH7752 shall passH5674 throughH5674, then ye shall be trodden downH4823 by it.
19As oftenH1767 as it passeth throughH5674, it shall takeH3947 youH3588; for morningH1242 by morningH1242 shall it passH5674 throughH5674, by dayH3117 and by nightH3915: and it shall be nought but terrorH2113 to understandH995 the messageH8052.
