Isaiah 66:3-17

3He that killethH7819 an oxH7794 is as if he slewH5221 a manH376; he that sacrificethH2076 a lambH7716, as if he cut offH6202 a dog’sH3611 neckH6202; he that offerethH5927 an oblationH4503, as if he offered swine’sH2386 bloodH1818; he that burnethH2142 incenseH3828, as if he blessedH1288 an idolH205. Yea, they have chosenH977 their own waysH1870, and their soulH5315 delightethH2654 in their abominationsH8251.12 4I also will chooseH977 their delusionsH8586, and will bringH935 their fearsH4035 upon them; because when I calledH7121, none did answerH6030; when I spokeH1696, they did not hearH8085: but they didH6213 evilH7451 before my eyesH5869, and choseH977 that in which I delightedH2654 not.3

5HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye that trembleH2730 at his wordH1697; Your brethrenH251 that hatedH8130 you, that cast you outH5077 for my name’sH8034 sake, saidH559, Let the LORDH3068 be glorifiedH3513: but he shall appearH7200 to your joyH8057, and they shall be ashamedH954. 6A voiceH6963 of noiseH7588 from the cityH5892, a voiceH6963 from the templeH1964, a voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 that renderethH7999 recompenceH1576 to his enemiesH341. 7Before she travailedH2342, she brought forthH3205; before her painH2256 cameH935, she was deliveredH4422 of a sonH2145. 8Who hath heardH8085 such a thing? who hath seenH7200 such things? Shall the earthH776 be made to bring forthH2342 in oneH259 dayH3117? or shall a nationH1471 be bornH3205 at onceH6471? for as soon asH1571 ZionH6726 travailedH2342, she brought forthH3205 her childrenH1121. 9Shall I bring to the birthH7665, and not cause to bring forthH3205? saithH559 the LORDH3068: shall IH589 cause to bring forthH3205, and shutH6113 the womb ? saithH559 thy GodH430.4 10RejoiceH8055 ye with JerusalemH3389, and be gladH1523 with her, all ye that loveH157 her: rejoiceH7797 for joyH4885 with her, all ye that mournH56 for her: 11That ye may nurseH3243, and be satisfiedH7646 with the breastsH7699 of her consolationsH8575; that ye may draw milkH4711, and be delightedH6026 with the abundanceH2123 of her gloryH3519.5 12For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will extendH5186 peaceH7965 to her like a riverH5104, and the gloryH3519 of the GentilesH1471 like a flowingH7857 streamH5158: then shall ye be nursedH3243, ye shall be borneH5375 upon her sidesH6654, and be dandledH8173 upon her kneesH1290. 13As oneH376 whom his motherH517 comfortethH5162, so will I comfortH5162 you; and ye shall be comfortedH5162 in JerusalemH3389. 14And when ye seeH7200 this, your heartH3820 shall rejoiceH7797, and your bonesH6106 shall flourishH6524 like an herbH1877: and the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 shall be knownH3045 toward his servantsH5650, and his indignationH2194 toward his enemiesH341.

15For, behold, the LORDH3068 will comeH935 with fireH784, and with his chariotsH4818 like a whirlwindH5492, to renderH7725 his angerH639 with furyH2534, and his rebukeH1606 with flamesH3851 of fireH784. 16For by fireH784 and by his swordH2719 will the LORDH3068 pleadH8199 with all fleshH1320: and the slainH2491 of the LORDH3068 shall be manyH7231. 17They that sanctifyH6942 themselves, and purifyH2891 themselves in the gardensH1593 behindH310 oneH259 tree in the midstH8432, eatingH398 swine’sH2386 fleshH1320, and the abominationH8263, and the mouseH5909, shall be consumedH5486 togetherH3162, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.6
