Isaiah 29:9-24

9StayH4102 yourselves, and wonderH8539; cry ye outH8173, and cryH8173: they are drunkH7937, but not with wineH3196; they staggerH5128, but not with strong drinkH7941.1 10For the LORDH3068 hath poured outH5258 upon you the spiritH7307 of deep sleepH8639, and hath closedH6105 your eyesH5869: the prophetsH5030 and your rulersH7218, the seersH2374 hath he coveredH3680.2 11And the visionH2380 of all is become to 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 sealedH2856:3 12And the bookH5612 is deliveredH5414 to him that is not learnedH3045H5612, sayingH559, ReadH7121 this, I pray thee: and he saithH559, I am not learnedH3045. 13Therefore 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 hidH5641.4 15WoeH1945 to them that seek deepH6009 to hideH5641 their counselH6098 from the LORDH3068, and their worksH4639 are in the darkH4285, and they sayH559, Who seethH7200 us? and who knowethH3045 us? 16Surely your turning of things upside downH2017 shall be esteemedH2803 as the potter’sH3335 clayH2563: for shall the workH4639 sayH559 of him that madeH6213 it, He madeH6213 me not? or shall the thing formedH3336 sayH559 of him that formedH3335 it, He had no understandingH995?

17Is it not yet a veryH4213 little whileH4592, and LebanonH3844 shall be turnedH7725 into a fruitful fieldH3759, and the fruitful fieldH3759 shall be esteemedH2803 as a forestH3293? 18And in that dayH3117 shall the deafH2795 hearH8085 the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612, and the eyesH5869 of the blindH5787 shall seeH7200 out of obscurityH652, and out of darknessH2822. 19The meekH6035 also shall increaseH3254 their joyH8057 in the LORDH3068, and the poorH34 among menH120 shall rejoiceH1523 in the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.5 20For the terrible oneH6184 is brought to noughtH656, and the mockerH3887 is consumedH3615, and all that watchH8245 for iniquityH205 are cut offH3772: 21That make a manH120 an offenderH2398 for a wordH1697, and lay a snareH6983 for him that reprovethH3198 in the gateH8179, and turn asideH5186 the justH6662 for a thing of noughtH8414. 22Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, who redeemedH6299 AbrahamH85, concerning the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, JacobH3290 shall not now be ashamedH954, neither shall his faceH6440 now become paleH2357. 23But when he seethH7200 his childrenH3206, the workH4639 of my handsH3027, in the midstH7130 of him, they shall sanctifyH6942 my nameH8034, and sanctifyH6942 the Holy OneH6918 of JacobH3290, and shall fearH6206 the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 24They also that erredH8582 in spiritH7307 shall comeH3045 to understandingH998, and they that murmuredH7279 shall learnH3925 doctrineH3948.6
