“
I revealed
Myself
to
those who did
not
ask for
Me
; I was
found by those who did
not
seek Me .
To a nation that did
not call
My name ,
I
said,
‘Here
I
am!
Here
I
am!’
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 .
All
day
long
I have held
out My hands to an
obstinate
people who walk in the
wrong
path
, who
follow
their own imaginations,
I have spread
out my hands all
the
day
to a
rebellious
people ,
who walk in a
way
that
is
not
good
, after
their own thoughts;
to
a people who continually
provoke Me to My face, sacrificing in the
gardens and burning incense on altars
of
brick,
a people who provoke me to my face continually
, sacrificing in gardens ,
and burning incense on bricks;
sitting
among the graves, spending
nights
in secret places, eating
the
meat
of
pigs
and polluted
broth from
their bowls.
who
sit
among the graves, and
lodge
in the
secret places ;
who
eat
pig's
flesh
, and broth of
abominable
things
is
in
their vessels;
They
say, ‘Keep
to
yourself ;
do
not
come near me, for I am holier than you !’
Such
people
are smoke in My nostrils
, a fire that burns all day long
.
who
say, Stand
by
yourself ,
don't
come near to
me, for I am holier than you .
These
are a
smoke in my nose
, a fire that burns all the
day.
Behold, it is written before Me: I will not keep silent
, but I
will repay;
I will pay
it
back
into their laps
,
Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence
, but will recompense,
yes,
I will recompense
into their bosom
,
both
for
your iniquities and for
those
of your fathers, ”
says the
LORD.
“Because
they
burned incense on the mountains and scorned
Me on the hills ,
I
will measure into
their laps
full
payment
for
their former
deeds
. ”
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
will I
first
measure their work
into
their bosom
.
This
is
what
the
LORD
says :
“
As the new wine is found in a
cluster of
grapes
, and men
say
, ‘Do
not
destroy it, for it
contains
a blessing ,’
so I
will act
on
behalf
of
My servants ;
I will
not destroy them all.
Thus
says Yahweh,
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.
And
I will bring forth descendants
from
Jacob, and heirs
from
Judah ;
My
elect
will
possess
My mountains, and My servants will
dwell there.
I will bring forth a
seed
out
of
Jacob, and out
of
Judah an
inheritor
of
my mountains ;
and
my
chosen
shall
inherit
it
, and my servants shall
dwell there.
Sharon will
become
a pasture
for
flocks, and the Valley of Achor a resting
place for herds, for My people who seek
Me.
Sharon shall
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.
But you who forsake the
LORD
, who forget My holy mountain, who set
a table for Fortune and fill bowls
of
mixed wine for
Destiny ,
But you who forsake Yahweh
, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare
a table for Fortune ,
and who
fill up
mixed wine to
Destiny ;
I will destine you for
the sword, and you will
all kneel
down to be
slaughtered,
because I called and
you did not answer ,
I spoke and
you did not listen
; you did evil in My sight
and chose that in which I did
not
delight. ”
I will destine you to
the sword, and you shall
all bow
down to the
slaughter;
because when
I called ,
you did not answer ;
when
I spoke ,
you did not hear
; but
you did that
which
was
evil in my eyes,
and chose that in which I didn't
delight.
Therefore this
is
what
the Lord GOD
says:
“
My servants will
eat, but you will
go
hungry; My servants will
drink, but you will
go
thirsty; My servants will
rejoice, but you will
be put
to
shame.
Therefore thus
says
the Lord Yahweh,
Behold,
my servants shall
eat, but you shall
be
hungry; behold,
my servants shall
drink, but you shall
be
thirsty; behold,
my servants shall
rejoice, but you shall
be disappointed;
My servants will
shout
for joy with
a
glad
heart, but you will
cry out
with
a
heavy
heart and wail with
a
broken
spirit.
behold,
my servants shall
sing
for joy of
heart, but you shall
cry for
sorrow
of
heart ,
and shall
wail for
vexation
of
spirit.
You will
leave behind
your name as
a curse for
My chosen ones,
and the Lord GOD
will slay
you; but
to
His
servants
He will give
another name .
You shall
leave your name for
a curse to
my chosen ;
and the Lord Yahweh
will kill
you; and
he will call
his
servants
by
another name :
Whoever
invokes
a
blessing
in the land
will
do
so
by
the God of truth ,
and whoever
takes
an
oath
in the land
will
swear by the God of truth .
For
the former troubles will
be
forgotten and hidden
from My sight
.
so
that
he
who
blesses
himself
in the earth
shall
bless
himself
in
the God of truth ;
and he
who
swears
in the earth
shall
swear by the God of truth ;
because
the former troubles are
forgotten ,
and because
they
are
hid
from my eyes
.
For behold, I will
create new heavens and a new earth .
The former things will
not be remembered, nor will
they
come to
mind.
For ,
behold, I create new heavens and a new earth ;
and
the former things shall
not be remembered, nor come into
mind.
But be glad and rejoice forever in what
I create; for I will
create Jerusalem to
be
a joy
and its
people to
be
a delight
.
But be you
glad and rejoice forever in that
which
I create; for ,
behold,
I create Jerusalem a rejoicing,
and her
people a joy
.
I will rejoice in Jerusalem and take
delight
in My people .
The
sounds
of
weeping
and crying
will
no
longer
be heard in her.
I will rejoice in Jerusalem ,
and joy
in my people ;
and there
shall
be heard in her no
more
the
voice
of
weeping
and
the
voice
of
crying
.
No longer
will
a
nursing
infant live
but
a
few
days, or
an old man fail
to
live
out
his years.
For the youth
will
die at
a
hundred years, and he
who
fails
to
reach
a
hundred will
be considered
accursed.
There
shall
be
no more
there
an
infant of
days, nor
an old man who
has
not
filled
his days;
for the child
shall
die one
hundred years old
, and the
sinner
being
one
hundred years
old
shall
be accursed.
They will
build houses and dwell
in
them; they will
plant vineyards and eat their
fruit.
They shall
build houses ,
and inhabit
them; and
they shall
plant vineyards ,
and eat the
fruit of
them
.
No
longer
will
they build houses
for
others
to
inhabit
, nor
plant for
others
to
eat .
For as is
the lifetime
of a tree ,
so
will
be the days of My people, and My chosen ones
will
fully
enjoy the work of their hands.
They shall
not
build, and
another
inhabit;
they
shall
not
plant ,
and
another
eat :
for as the days
of a tree shall
be the days of my people, and my chosen shall
long
enjoy the work of their hands.
They will
not labor in vain or
bear
children
doomed
to
disaster
; for they will
be
a
people
blessed
by
the LORD—
they
and their descendants
with them.
They shall
not labor in vain ,
nor
bring
forth
for
calamity
; for they are
the seed
of
the
blessed
of
Yahweh,
and their offspring
with them.
Even
before they call, I will answer ,
and while they are still
speaking, I will hear.
It
shall
happen
that,
before they call, I will answer ;
and while they are yet
speaking, I will hear.
The wolf and the lamb will
feed together, and the lion will
eat straw like the ox ,
but
the food of
the
serpent
will
be
dust
. They will
neither
harm
nor destroy on
all My holy mountain, ”
says the
LORD
.
The wolf and the lamb shall
feed together, and the lion shall
eat straw like the ox ;
and
dust
shall
be
the serpent's
food. They shall
not
hurt
nor destroy in
all my holy mountain, says Yahweh
.
