Isaiah 48:1-8

1HearH8085 ye this, O houseH1004 of JacobH3290, whichH4325 are calledH7121 by the nameH8034 of IsraelH3478, and are comeH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of the watersH4325 of JudahH3063; whichH4325 swearH7650 by the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, and makeH8085 mentionH2142 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, but notH3808 in truthH571, norH3808 in righteousnessH6666.

2For they callH7121 themselvesH5921 of the holyH6944 cityH5892, and stay themselvesH5921 uponH5921 the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034.

3I have declaredH5046 the formerH7223 things from of oldH7223; yea, they wentH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of my mouthH6310, and I shewed them: suddenlyH6597 I didH6213 them, and they cameH935 to passH935.

4BecauseH3588 I knew that thou art obstinateH7186, and thy neckH6203 is an ironH1270 sinewH1517, and thy brow brass;

5therefore I have declaredH5046 it to thee from of old; beforeH2962 it cameH935 to passH935 I shewed it thee: lestH6435 thou shouldest sayH559, Mine idolH6459 hath doneH6213 them, and my gravenH6459 imageH6459, and my molten imageH6459, hath commandedH6680 them.

6Thou hast heardH8085 it; beholdH2372 allH3605 this; and ye, will ye notH3808 declareH5046 it? I have shewed thee newH2319 things from this time, evenH3808 hiddenH5341 things, which thou hast notH3808 knownH3045.

7They are createdH1254 nowH6258, and notH3808 from of oldH6440; and beforeH6440 this dayH3117 thou heardest them notH3808; lestH6435 thou shouldest sayH559, BeholdH2009, I knewH3045 them.

8YeaH3588, thou heardest notH3808; yeaH3588, thou knewest notH3808; yeaH3588, from of old thine earH241 was notH3808 openedH6605: for I knewH3045 that thou didst dealH898 veryH898 treacherouslyH898, and wast calledH7121 a transgressor from the wombH990.
