Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
I have
been
inquired
of by
those
who
asked not ,
I have
been
found by
those
who
sought Me not ,
I have
said, `
Behold Me, behold Me, '
Unto a nation not calling
in
My name.
I am
sought
of them
that
asked not for
me;
I am
found of
them
that
sought me not :
I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that
was
not called
by
my name.
I have spread out My hands all the day Unto an
apostate
people, Who
are
going
in the
way not good after their own thoughts .
I have spread out my hands all the day unto a
rebellious
people, which
walketh
in a
way that
was
not good ,
after their own thoughts ;
The
people who
are
provoking
Me to anger ,
To My face continually,
Sacrificing
in gardens, and making
perfume
on
the
bricks:
A
people that
provoketh
me to anger continually
to my face ;
that
sacrificeth
in gardens, and burneth
incense
upon
altars
of
brick;
Who
are
dwelling
among sepulchres
, And lodge in reserved
places
, Who
are
eating
flesh of
the
sow
, And a
piece
of abominable things --
their vessels .
Which
remain
among the
graves
, and lodge in the
monuments
, which
eat
swine's
flesh, and broth
of abominable things is
in
their vessels ;
Who
are
saying
, `Keep
to
thyself, come not nigh
to me ,
For I have
declared
thee
unholy
. '
These `
are '
a smoke in Mine
anger
, A fire burning
all the day.
Which
say
, Stand
by
thyself, come not near
to me ;
for I am
holier
than
thou
. These are a smoke in my
nose
, a fire that
burneth
all the day.
Lo
, it is written before Me: `
I am
not silent
, but have
recompensed;
And
I
have
recompensed
into their bosom,
Behold
, it is written before me: I will
not keep
silence
, but will
recompense,
even
recompense
into their bosom,
Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, said
Jehovah
, Who
have made
perfume
on
the mountains, And on
the
heights
have
reproached
Me ,
And
I have
measured
their former work into their bosom. '
Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith
the
LORD
, which
have burned
incense
upon
the mountains, and blasphemed
me upon
the
hills:
therefore
will
I measure
their former work into their bosom.
Thus said
Jehovah:
As the new wine is found in the cluster, And one hath
said
, `
Destroy it not for a blessing `
is '
in it ,'
So I do for My servants' sake
, not to
destroy the
whole
.
Thus saith
the
LORD,
As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith
, Destroy it not ;
for a blessing is in it :
so will
I do for my servants' sakes
, that
I
may
not destroy them
all
.
And I have
brought
out
from
Jacob
a seed, And from
Judah a
possessor
of My mount,
And possess
it do
My
chosen
ones
, And My servants do
dwell there.
And I will
bring
forth
a seed out
of
Jacob
, and out
of
Judah an
inheritor
of my mountains:
and mine
elect
shall
inherit
it, and my servants shall
dwell there.
And Sharon hath
been
for
the
habitation
of
a flock
, And the valley of Achor for the lying
down of
a
herd
, For My people who
have sought Me.
And Sharon shall
be
a fold
of
flocks
, and the valley of Achor a
place
for the herds
to
lie
down in
, for my people that
have sought me.
And
ye `
are '
those
forsaking
Jehovah
, Who
are
forgetting
My holy mountain, Who
are
setting
in
array
for
Gad
a table, And who
are
filling
for
Meni
a
mixture
.
But
ye are they
that
forsake
the
LORD
, that
forget
my holy mountain, that
prepare
a table for
that
troop
, and that
furnish
the
drink
offering
unto
that
number
.
And
I have
numbered
you for
the sword, And all of
you
for
slaughter
bow down ,
Because I called, and
ye have
not answered,
I have
spoken
, and
ye have
not hearkened,
And
ye
do
the
evil thing
in
Mine eyes, And on
that which
I desired
not --
fixed
.
Therefore
will
I number
you to
the sword, and ye
shall
all bow down to
the
slaughter:
because when
I called, ye did
not answer;
when
I spake
, ye did
not hear;
but
did
evil before
mine eyes, and did
choose
that wherein
I delighted
not.
Therefore ,
thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
Lo
, My servants do
eat, and
ye do
hunger,
Lo
, My servants do
drink, and
ye do
thirst,
Lo
, My servants rejoice, and
ye are
ashamed ,
Therefore thus saith
the Lord GOD
, Behold,
my servants shall
eat, but
ye shall
be
hungry:
behold
, my servants shall
drink, but
ye shall
be
thirsty:
behold
, my servants shall
rejoice, but
ye shall
be
ashamed :
Lo
, My servants sing from
joy of heart, And
ye cry from
pain
of heart, And from
breaking
of spirit ye
do
howl
.
Behold
, my servants shall
sing for
joy of heart, but
ye shall
cry for
sorrow
of heart, and shall
howl
for
vexation
of spirit.
And ye have
left
your name For an
oath
for
My chosen ones,
And
the Lord Jehovah
hath
put
thee to
death
, And to
His servants He
giveth
another name .
And ye shall
leave
your name for a
curse
unto
my chosen :
for
the Lord GOD
shall
slay
thee, and call
his servants by
another name :
So
that he who is
blessing
himself in the earth ,
Doth
bless himself In the God of faithfulness,
And he who
is
swearing
in the earth ,
Doth
swear by the God of faithfulness,
Because the former distresses
have
been
forgotten, And because they have
been
hid from Mine eyes.
That he who blesseth
himself in the earth shall
bless himself in the God of truth;
and he that
sweareth
in the earth shall
swear by the God of truth;
because the former troubles
are
forgotten, and because they are
hid from mine eyes.
For, lo
, I am
creating
new heavens ,
and a new earth ,
And the former things
are
not remembered, Nor do
they
ascend
on
the
heart
.
For, behold
, I create
new heavens and a new earth :
and the former shall
not be
remembered, nor come
into
mind
.
But joy
ye ,
and rejoice for ever ,
that I `am'
Creator,
For, lo
, I am
creating
Jerusalem a rejoicing, And her people a joy.
But be
ye glad
and rejoice for ever in
that which
I create:
for, behold
, I create
Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
And I have
rejoiced
in Jerusalem, And have
joyed
in My people ,
And not
heard
in
her
any
more
Is
the voice of weeping, and
the voice of crying.
And I will
rejoice
in Jerusalem, and joy
in my people :
and the voice of weeping shall
be
no
more
heard
in
her
, nor
the voice of crying.
There is
not
thence
any
more a
suckling
of days, And
an aged
man who
doth
not complete
his days ,
For the youth
a
hundred years old dieth,
And
the sinner ,
a
hundred years old ,
is
lightly
esteemed
.
There shall
be
no
more thence
an
infant
of days, nor
an old
man that
hath
not filled
his days :
for the child
shall
die
an
hundred years old ;
but
the sinner being
an
hundred years old shall
be
accursed
.
And they have
built
houses, and inhabited,
And planted
vineyards, and eaten
their
fruit.
And they shall
build
houses, and inhabit
them;
and they
shall
plant
vineyards, and eat
the
fruit of
them
.
They do
not build, and another inhabit ,
They do
not plant, and another eat ,
For as the days of a tree `
are '
the days of My people, And the work of their hands wear
out
do
My
chosen
ones
.
They shall
not build, and another inhabit ;
they shall
not plant, and another eat :
for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine
elect
shall
long
enjoy
the work of their hands.
They labour
not for
a
vain thing
, Nor do
they
bring forth for trouble ,
For the seed of the blessed of Jehovah
`are'
they
, And their offspring with them.
They shall
not labour
in
vain, nor bring forth for trouble ;
for they
are
the seed of the blessed of the
LORD
, and their offspring with them.
And it hath
come to pass, They do
not
yet
call, and
I answer ,
They are yet speaking, and
I hear.
And it shall
come to pass, that
before
they call, I will
answer ;
and
while
they are yet speaking, I will
hear.
Wolf and lamb do
feed as
one
, And a
lion as
an
ox
eateth
straw ,
As
to
the serpent
--
dust `is'
its
food,
They do
no
evil,
nor destroy ,
In all My holy mountain, said
Jehovah!
The
wolf and the
lamb shall
feed together
, and the
lion shall
eat
straw like
the bullock:
and
dust shall
be
the
serpent's
meat.
They shall
not
hurt
nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith
the
LORD.
