Isaiah 56

1 Yahweh says,

“Maintain justice,

and do what is right;

for my salvation is near,

and my righteousness will soon be revealed.

2 Blessed is the man who does this,

and the son of man who holds it fast;

who keeps the Sabbath without profaning it,

and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”

3 Let no foreigner, who has joined himself to Yahweh, speak, saying,

“Yahweh will surely separate me from his people.”

Do not let the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”

4 For Yahweh says, “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,

and choose the things that please me,

and hold fast to my covenant:

5 I will give them in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters.

I will give them an everlasting name, that will not be cut off.

6 Also the foreigners who join themselves to Yahweh,

to serve him,

and to love Yahweh’s name,

to be his servants,

everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it,

and holds fast my covenant;

7 I will bring these to my holy mountain,

and make them joyful in my house of prayer.

Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar;

for my house will be called a house of prayer for all peoples.”

8 The Lord Yahweh, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says,

“I will yet gather others to him,

besides his own who are gathered.”

9 All you animals of the field,

come to devour,

all you animals in the forest.

10 His watchmen are blind.

They are all without knowledge.

They are all mute dogs.

They can’t bark;

dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.

11 Yes, the dogs are greedy.

They can never have enough.

They are shepherds who can’t understand.

They have all turned to their own way,

each one to his gain, from every quarter.

12 “Come,” say they, “I will get wine,

and we will fill ourselves with strong drink;

and tomorrow will be as today,

great beyond measure.”

Isaiah 57

1 The righteous perish,

and no one lays it to heart.

Merciful men are taken away,

and no one considers that the righteous is taken away from the evil.

2 He enters into peace.

They rest in their beds,

each one who walks in his uprightness.

3 “But draw near here, you sons of a sorceress,

you offspringof adulterers and prostitutes.

4 Whom do you mock?

Against whom do you make a wide mouth,

and stick out your tongue?

Aren’t you children of disobedience,

and offspringof falsehood,

5 you who inflame yourselves among the oaks,

under every green tree;

who kill the children in the valleys,

under the clefts of the rocks?

6 Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion;

they, they are your lot.

You have even poured a drink offering to them.

You have offered an offering.

Shall I be appeased for these things?

7 On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed.

You also went up there to offer sacrifice.

8 You have set up your memorial behind the doors and the posts;

for you have exposed yourself to someone besides me,

and have gone up;

you have enlarged your bed,

and made you a covenant with them.

You loved what you saw on their bed.

9 You went to the king with oil,

and increased your perfumes,

and sent your ambassadors far off,

and degraded yourself even to Sheol.

10 You were wearied with the length of your ways;

yet you didn’t say, ‘It is in vain.’

You found a reviving of your strength;

therefore you weren’t faint.

11 “Whom have you dreaded and feared,

so that you lie,

and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart?

Haven’t I held my peace for a long time,

and you don’t fear me?

12 I will declare your righteousness;

and as for your works, they will not benefit you.

13 When you cry,

let those whom you have gathered deliver you;

but the wind will take them.

a breath will carry them all away:

but he who takes refuge in me will possess the land,

and will inherit my holy mountain.”

14 He will say, “Build up, build up, prepare the way!

Remove the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.”

15 For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity,

whose name is Holy:

“I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit,

to revive the spirit of the humble,

and to revive the heart of the contrite.

16 For I will not contend forever, neither will I be always angry;

for the spirit would faint before me,

and the souls whom I have made.

17 I was angry because of the iniquity of his covetousness, and struck him;

I hid myself and was angry;

and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.

18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him:

I will lead him also,

and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.

19 I create the fruit of the lips:

Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near,”

says Yahweh; “and I will heal them.”

20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea;

for it can’t rest, and its waters cast up mire and mud.

21 “There is no peace”, says my God,

“for the wicked.”

Isaiah 58

1 “Cry aloud, don’t spare.

Lift up your voice like a trumpet.

Declare to my people their disobedience,

and to the house of Jacob their sins.

2 Yet they seek me daily,

and delight to know my ways.

As a nation that did righteousness,

and didn’t forsake the ordinance of their God,

they ask of me righteous judgments.

They delight to draw near to God.

3 ‘Why have we fasted,’ say they, ‘and you don’t see?

Why have we afflicted our soul, and you don’t notice?’

“Behold, in the day of your fast you find pleasure,

and oppress all your laborers.

4 Behold, you fast for strife and contention,

and to strike with the fist of wickedness.

You don’t fast today so as to make your voice to be heard on high.

5 Is this the fast that I have chosen?

A day for a man to humble his soul?

Is it to bow down his head like a reed,

and to spread sackcloth and ashes under himself?

Will you call this a fast,

and an acceptable day to Yahweh?

6 “Isn’t this the fast that I have chosen:

to release the bonds of wickedness,

to undo the straps of the yoke,

to let the oppressed go free,

and that you break every yoke?

7 Isn’t it to distribute your bread to the hungry,

and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house?

When you see the naked,

that you cover him;

and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?

8 Then your light will break out as the morning,

and your healing will appear quickly;

then your righteousness shall go before you;

and Yahweh’s glory will be your rear guard.

9 Then you will call, and Yahweh will answer;

you will cry for help, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’

“If you take away from among you the yoke,

finger pointing,

and speaking wickedly;

10 and if you pour out your soul to the hungry,

and satisfy the afflicted soul:

then your light will rise in darkness,

and your obscurity will be as the noonday;

11 and Yahweh will guide you continually,

and satisfy your soul in dry places,

and make your bones strong;

and you shall be like a watered garden,

and like a spring of water,

whose waters don’t fail.

12 Those who shall be of you shall build the old waste places;

you shall raise up the foundations of many generations;

and you shall be called Repairer of the Breach,

Restorer of Paths with Dwellings.

13 “If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,

from doing your pleasure on my holy day;

and call the Sabbath a delight,

and the holy of Yahweh honorable;

and shall honor it,

not doing your own ways,

nor finding your own pleasure,

nor speaking your own words:

14 then you shall delight yourself in Yahweh;

and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth;

and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father:”

for Yahweh’s mouth has spoken it.

Isaiah 59

1 Behold, Yahweh’s hand is not shortened, that it can’t save;

nor his ear dull, that it can’t hear.

2 But your iniquities have separated you and your God,

and your sins have hidden his face from you,

so that he will not hear.

3 For your hands are defiled with blood,

and your fingers with iniquity.

Your lips have spoken lies.

Your tongue mutters wickedness.

4 No one sues in righteousness,

and no one pleads in truth.

They trust in vanity,

and speak lies.

They conceive mischief,

and give birth to iniquity.

5 They hatch adders’ eggs,

and weave the spider’s web.

He who eats of their eggs dies;

and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper.

6 Their webs won’t become garments.

They won’t cover themselves with their works.

Their works are works of iniquity,

and acts of violence are in their hands.

7 Their feet run to evil,

and they hurry to shed innocent blood.

Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity.

desolation and destruction are in their paths.

8 They don’t know the way of peace;

and there is no justice in their ways.

They have made crooked paths for themselves;

whoever goes in them doesn’t know peace.

9 Therefore is justice far from us,

and righteousness doesn’t overtake us.

We look for light, but see darkness;

for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.

10 We grope for the wall like the blind.

Yes, we grope as those who have no eyes.

We stumble at noon as if it were twilight.

Among those who are strong, we are like dead men.

11 We all roar like bears,

and moan bitterly like doves.

We look for justice, but there is none;

for salvation, but it is far off from us.

12 For our transgressions are multiplied before you,

and our sins testify against us;

for our transgressions are with us,

and as for our iniquities, we know them:

13 transgressing and denying Yahweh,

and turning away from following our God,

speaking oppression and revolt,

conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.

14 Justice is turned away backward,

and righteousness stands far away;

for truth has fallen in the street,

and uprightness can’t enter.

15 Yes, truth is lacking;

and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.

Yahweh saw it,

and it displeased him that there was no justice.

16 He saw that there was no man,

and wondered that there was no intercessor.

Therefore his own arm brought salvation to him;

and his righteousness sustained him.

17 He put on righteousness as a breastplate,

and a helmet of salvation on his head.

He put on garments of vengeance for clothing,

and was clad with zeal as a mantle.

18 According to their deeds,

he will repay as appropriate,

wrath to his adversaries,

recompense to his enemies;

he will repay the islands their due.

19 So shall they fear Yahweh’s name from the west,

and his glory from the rising of the sun;

for he will come as a rushing stream,

which Yahweh’s breath drives.

20 “A Redeemer will come to Zion,

and to those who turn from disobedience in Jacob,” says Yahweh.

21 “As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says Yahweh. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring,nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says Yahweh, “from henceforth and forever.”

Isaiah 60

1 “Arise, shine; for your light has come,

and Yahweh’s glory has risen on you.

2 For, behold, darkness will cover the earth,

and thick darkness the peoples;

but Yahweh will arise on you,

and his glory shall be seen on you.

3 Nations will come to your light,

and kings to the brightness of your rising.

4 “Lift up your eyes all around, and see:

they all gather themselves together.

They come to you.

Your sons will come from far away,

and your daughters will be carried in arms.

5 Then you shall see and be radiant,

and your heart will thrill and be enlarged;

because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you.

The wealth of the nations will come to you.

6 A multitude of camels will cover you,

the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah.

All from Sheba will come.

They will bring gold and frankincense,

and will proclaim the praises of Yahweh.

7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered together to you.

The rams of Nebaioth will serve you.

They will be accepted as offerings on my altar;

and I will beautify my glorious house.

8 “Who are these who fly as a cloud,

and as the doves to their windows?

9 Surely the islands will wait for me,

and the ships of Tarshish first,

to bring your sons from far,

their silver and their gold with them,

for the name of Yahweh your God,

and for the Holy One of Israel,

because he has glorified you.

10 “Foreigners will build up your walls,

and their kings will serve you:

for in my wrath I struck you,

but in my favor I have had mercy on you.

11 Your gates also shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations, and their kings led captive.

12 For that nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, those nations shall be utterly wasted.

13 “The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress tree, the pine, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

14 The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you;

and all those who despised you will bow themselves down at the soles of your feet.

They will call you Yahweh’s City,

The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

15 “Whereas you have been forsaken and hated,

so that no one passed through you,

I will make you an eternal excellency,

a joy of many generations.

16 You will also drink the milk of the nations,

and will nurse from royal breasts.

Then you will know that I, Yahweh, am your Savior,

your Redeemer,

the Mighty One of Jacob.

17 For brass I will bring gold;

for iron I will bring silver;

for wood, brass,

and for stones, iron.

I will also make peace your governor,

and righteousness your ruler.

18 Violence shall no more be heard in your land,

nor desolation or destruction within your borders;

but you will call your walls Salvation,

and your gates Praise.

19 The sun will be no more your light by day;

nor will the brightness of the moon give light to you,

but Yahweh will be your everlasting light,

and your God will be your glory.

20 Your sun will not go down any more,

nor will your moon withdraw itself;

for Yahweh will be your everlasting light,

and the days of your mourning will end.

21 Then your people will all be righteous.

They will inherit the land forever,

the branch of my planting,

the work of my hands,

that I may be glorified.

22 The little one will become a thousand,

and the small one a strong nation.

I, Yahweh, will do this quickly in its time.”

Isaiah 61

1 The Lord Yahweh’s Spirit is on me;

because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble.

He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted,

to proclaim liberty to the captives,

and release to those who are bound;

2 to proclaim the year of Yahweh’s favor,

and the day of vengeance of our God;

to comfort all who mourn;

3 to provide for those who mourn in Zion,

to give to them a garland for ashes,

the oil of joy for mourning,

the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;

that they may be called trees of righteousness,

the planting of Yahweh,

that he may be glorified.

4 They will rebuild the old ruins.

They will raise up the places long devastated.

They will repair the ruined cities,

that have been devastated for many generations.

5 Strangers will stand and feed your flocks,

and foreigners will work your fields and your vineyards.

6 But you will be called Yahweh’s priests.

Men will call you the servants of our God.

You will eat the wealth of the nations,

and you will boast in their glory.

7 Instead of your shame you will have double.

Instead of dishonor, they will rejoice in their portion.

Therefore in their land, they will possess double.

Everlasting joy will be to them.

8 “For I, Yahweh, love justice.

I hate robbery and iniquity.

I will give them their reward in truth,

and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

9 Their offspringwill be known among the nations,

and their offspring among the peoples.

All who see them will acknowledge them,

that they are the offspringwhich Yahweh has blessed.”

10 I will greatly rejoice in Yahweh!

My soul will be joyful in my God;

for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation.

He has covered me with the robe of righteousness,

as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland,

and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

11 For as the earth produces its bud,

and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring up;

so the Lord Yahweh will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.

Isaiah 62

1 For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace,

and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,

until her righteousness shines out like the dawn,

and her salvation like a burning lamp.

2 The nations will see your righteousness,

and all kings your glory,

and you will be called by a new name,

which Yahweh‘s mouth will name.

3 You will also be a crown of beauty in Yahweh‘s hand,

and a royal diadem in your God‘s hand.

4 You will not be called Forsaken any more;

nor will your land be called Desolate any more:

but you will be called Hephzibah,

and your land Beulah;

for Yahweh delights in you,

and your land will be married.

5 For as a young man marries a virgin,

so your sons will marry you.

As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,

so your God will rejoice over you.

6 I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem.

They will never be silent day nor night.

You who call on Yahweh, take no rest,

7 and give him no rest, until he establishes,

and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

8 Yahweh has sworn by his right hand,

and by the arm of his strength,

“Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies;

and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have labored;

9 but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise Yahweh;

and those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”

10 Go through, go through the gates!

Prepare the way of the people!

Build up, build up the highway!

Gather out the stones!

Lift up a banner for the peoples.

11 Behold, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth,

“Say to the daughter of Zion,

‘Behold, your salvation comes.

Behold, his reward is with him,

and his recompense before him.’”

12 They will call them The holy people,

Yahweh’s redeemed.

You will be called Sought out,

A city not forsaken.

Isaiah 63

1 Who is this who comes from Edom,

with dyed garments from Bozrah?

Who this who is glorious in his clothing,

marching in the greatness of his strength?

“It is I who speak in righteousness,

mighty to save.”

2 Why is your clothing red,

and your garments like him who treads in the wine vat?

3 “I have trodden the wine press alone;

and of the peoples, no one was with me:

Yes, I trod them in my anger,

and trampled them in my wrath.

Their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments,

and I have stained all my clothing.

4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart,

and the year of my redeemed has come.

5 I looked, and there was no one to help;

and I wondered that there was no one to uphold:

therefore my own arm brought salvation to me;

and my own wrath upheld me.

6 I trod down the peoples in my anger,

and made them drunk in my wrath,

and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”

7 I will tell of the loving kindnesses of Yahweh

and the praises of Yahweh,

according to all that Yahweh has given to us,

and the great goodness toward the house of Israel,

which he has given to them according to his mercies,

and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

8 For he said, “Surely, they are my people,

children who will not deal falsely;”

so he became their Savior.

9 In all their affliction he was afflicted,

and the angel of his presence saved them.

In his love and in his pity he redeemed them.

He bore them,

and carried them all the days of old.

10 But they rebelled,

and grieved his holy Spirit.

Therefore he turned and became their enemy,

and he himself fought against them.

11 Then he remembered the days of old,

Moses and his people, saying,

“Where is he who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock?

Where is he who put his Holy Spirit among them?”

12 Who caused his glorious arm to be at Moses’ right hand?

Who divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name?

13 Who led them through the depths,

like a horse in the wilderness,

so that they didn’t stumble?

14 As the livestock that go down into the valley,

Yahweh’s Spirit caused them to rest.

So you led your people, to make yourself a glorious name.

15 Look down from heaven,

and see from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory.

Where are your zeal and your mighty acts?

The yearning of your heart and your compassion is restrained toward me.

16 For you are our Father,

though Abraham doesn’t know us,

and Israel does not acknowledge us.

You, Yahweh, are our Father.

Our Redeemer from everlasting is your name.

17 O Yahweh, why do you make us wander from your ways,

and harden our heart from your fear?

Return for your servants’ sake,

the tribes of your inheritance.

18 Your holy people possessed it but a little while.

Our adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary.

19 We have become like those over whom you never ruled,

like those who were not called by your name.

Isaiah 64

1 Oh that you would tear the heavens,

that you would come down,

that the mountains might quake at your presence.

2 As when fire kindles the brushwood,

and the fire causes the water to boil;

Make your name known to your adversaries,

that the nations may tremble at your presence!

3 When you did awesome things which we didn’t look for,

you came down, and the mountains quaked at your presence.

4 For from of old men have not heard,

nor perceived by the ear,

nor has the eye seen a God besides you,

who works for him who waits for him.

5 You meet him who rejoices and does righteousness,

those who remember you in your ways.

Behold, you were angry, and we sinned.

We have been in sin for a long time.

Shall we be saved?

6 For we have all become like one who is unclean,

and all our righteousness is like a polluted garment.

We all fade like a leaf;

and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.

7 There is no one who calls on your name,

who stirs himself up to take hold of you;

for you have hidden your face from us,

and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.

8 But now, Yahweh, you are our Father.

We are the clay, and you our potter.

We all are the work of your hand.

9 Don’t be furious, Yahweh,

and don’t remember iniquity forever.

Look and see, we beg you,

we are all your people.

10 Your holy cities have become a wilderness.

Zion has become a wilderness,

Jerusalem a desolation.

11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you,

is burned with fire;

and all our pleasant places are laid waste.

12 Will you hold yourself back for these things, Yahweh?

Will you keep silent, and punish us very severely?

Isaiah 65

1 “I am inquired of by those who didn’t ask.

I am found by those who didn’t seek me.

I said, ‘See me, see me,’ to a nation that was not called by my name.

2 I have spread out my hands all day to a rebellious people,

who walk in a way that is not good,

after their own thoughts;

3 a people who provoke me to my face continually,

sacrificing in gardens,

and burning incense on bricks;

4 who sit among the graves,

and spend nights in secret places;

who eat pig’s meat,

and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

5 who say, ‘Stay by yourself,

don’t come near to me,

for I am holier than you.’

These are smoke in my nose,

a fire that burns all day.

6 “Behold, it is written before me:

I will not keep silence,

but will repay,

yes, I will repay into their bosom,

7 your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together”, says Yahweh,

“who have burned incense on the mountains,

and blasphemed me on the hills.

Therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom.”

8 Yahweh says,

“As the new wine is found in the cluster,

and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’

so will I do for my servants’ sake,

that I may not destroy them all.

9 I will bring offspringout of Jacob,

and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains.

My chosen will inherit it,

and my servants will dwell there.

10 Sharon will be a fold of flocks,

and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in,

for my people who have sought me.

11 “But you who forsake Yahweh,

who forget my holy mountain,

who prepare a table for Fortune,

and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;

12 I will destine you to the sword,

and you will all bow down to the slaughter;

because when I called, you didn’t answer.

When I spoke, you didn’t listen;

but you did that which was evil in my eyes,

and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”

13 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh,

“Behold, my servants will eat,

but you will be hungry;

behold, my servants will drink,

but you will be thirsty.

Behold, my servants will rejoice,

but you will be disappointed;

14 Behold, my servants will sing for joy of heart,

but you will cry for sorrow of heart,

and will wail for anguish of spirit.

15 You will leave your name for a curse to my chosen;

and the Lord Yahweh will kill you.

He will call his servants by another name,

16 so that he who blesses himself in the earth will bless himself in the God of truth;

and he who swears in the earth will swear by the God of truth;

because the former troubles are forgotten,

and because they are hidden from my eyes.

17 “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;

and the former things will not be remembered,

nor come into mind.

18 But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create;

for, behold, I create Jerusalem to be a delight,

and her people a joy.

19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem,

and delight in my people;

and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying

will be heard in her no more.

20 “No more will there be an infant who only lives a few days,

nor an old man who has not filled his days;

for the child will die one hundred years old,

and the sinner being one hundred years old will be accursed.

21 They will build houses, and inhabit them.

They will plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

22 They will not build, and another inhabit.

They will not plant, and another eat:

for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree,

and my chosen will long enjoy the work of their hands.

23 They will not labor in vain,

nor give birth for calamity;

for they are the offspringof Yahweh’s blessed,

and their descendants with them.

24 It will happen that, before they call, I will answer;

and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together,

and the lion will eat straw like the ox.

Dust will be the serpent’s food.

They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain,”

says Yahweh.
