Isaiah 66:7-23

7BeforeH2962 sheH2962 travailed, sheH2962 broughtH935 forthH3205; beforeH2962 herH935 pain cameH935, sheH2962 was deliveredH4422 of a manH2145 childH3205.

8Who hath heardH8085 suchH428 a thingH259? who hath seenH7200 suchH428 things? Shall a landH776 be bornH3205 in one dayH3117? shall a nationH1471 be broughtH3205 forthH3205 at onceH259? for as soonH3205 as ZionH6726 travailed, sheH3588 broughtH3205 forthH3205 herH518 childrenH1121.

9Shall I bringH3205 to the birthH3205, and notH3808 cause to bringH3205 forthH3205? saith the LORDH3068: shall I that cause to bringH3205 forthH3205 shutH6113 the womb? saith thy GodH430.

10RejoiceH8055 ye with JerusalemH3389, and be gladH8055 for herH3605, allH3605 ye that loveH157 herH3605: rejoiceH8055 for joyH4885 with herH3605, allH3605 ye that mournH56 over herH3605:

11that ye may suckH3243 and be satisfiedH7646 with the breastsH7699 of herH3243 consolationsH8575; that ye may milk outH3243, and be delightedH6026 with the abundanceH7646 of herH3243 gloryH3519.

12For thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, BeholdH2005, I will extendH5186 peaceH7965 to herH413 like a riverH5104, and the gloryH3519 of the nationsH1471 like an overflowingH7857 streamH5158, and ye shall suckH3243 thereof; ye shall be borneH5375 uponH5921 the sideH6654, and shall be dandled uponH5921 the kneesH1290.

13As one whomH834 his motherH517 comforteth, soH3651 will I comfortH5162 youH834; and ye shall be comfortedH5162 in JerusalemH3389.

14And ye shall seeH7200 it, and your heartH3820 shall rejoiceH7797, and your bonesH6106 shall flourish like the tenderH1877 grassH1877: and the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 shall be knownH3045 towardH854 his servantsH5650, and he will have indignationH2194 againstH854 his enemiesH341.

15For, beholdH2009, the LORDH3068 will comeH935 with fireH784, and his chariotsH4818 shall be like the whirlwind; to renderH7725 his angerH639 with furyH2534, and his rebukeH1606 with flamesH3851 of fireH784.

16For by fireH784 will the LORDH3068 pleadH8199, and by his swordH2719, with allH3605 fleshH1320: and the slainH2491 of the LORDH3068 shall be manyH7231.

17They that sanctifyH6942 themselvesH310 and purifyH2891 themselvesH310 to go unto the gardensH1593, behindH310 one in the midstH8432, eatingH398 swine’sH2386 fleshH1320, and the abomination, and the mouseH5909; they shall comeH5486 to an endH5486 togetherH3162, saith the LORDH3068.

18For I know their worksH4639 and their thoughtsH4284: the time cometh, that I will gatherH6908 allH3605 nationsH1471 and tonguesH3956; and they shall comeH935, and shall seeH7200 my gloryH3519.

19And I will setH7760 a signH226 among them, and I will sendH7971 suchH834 as escapeH6412 of them unto the nationsH1471, to TarshishH8659, PulH6322 and LudH3865, that drawH4900 the bowH7198, to TubalH8422 and JavanH3120, to the islesH339 afarH7350 offH7350, that have notH3808 heardH8085 my fameH8088, neitherH3808 have seenH7200 my gloryH3519; and they shall declareH5046 my gloryH3519 among the nationsH1471.

20And they shall bringH935 allH3605 your brethrenH251 outH5921 of allH3605 the nationsH1471 for an offering unto the LORDH3068, uponH5921 horsesH5483, and in chariotsH7393, and in litters, and uponH5921 mulesH6505, and uponH5921 swift beastsH1121, to my holyH6944 mountainH2022 JerusalemH3389, saith the LORDH3068, as the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 bringH935 their offering in a cleanH2889 vesselH3627 intoH935 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.

21And of them also will I takeH3947 for priestsH3548 and for LevitesH3881, saith the LORDH3068.

22For as the newH2319 heavensH8064 and the newH2319 earthH776, whichH834 I will makeH6213, shall remainH5975 beforeH6440 meH6440, saith the LORDH3068, soH3651 shall your seedH2233 and your nameH8034 remainH5975.

23And it shall comeH935 to passH935, that from one newH2320 moonH2320 to another, and from one sabbathH7676 to another, shall allH3605 fleshH1320 comeH935 to worshipH7812 beforeH6440 meH6440, saith the LORDH3068.
