YLT
Young's Literal Translation
This
is
what
the
LORD
says
: “Heaven
is
My throne, and earth is
My footstool .
What
kind
of
house will
you
build for Me? Or
where will
My
place of
repose
be
?
Thus
said
Jehovah
: The
heavens
`are'
My throne, And the
earth My footstool ,
Where
`is'
this
--
the
house that
ye
build for Me? And
where `is'
this
--
the
place --
My
rest
?
Has
not
My hand made all these things ?
And
so
they
came
into
being
, ”
declares
the
LORD.
“
This is
the
one I will
esteem:
he
who
is
humble and contrite
in spirit, who trembles
at My word.
And
all
these
My hand hath
made ,
And
all these things are
, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah!
And
unto
this one I look
attentively,
Unto
the
humble and bruised
in spirit, And
who is
trembling
at My word.
Whoever
slaughters
an
ox is
like
one
who
slays
a man ;
whoever
sacrifices
a
lamb is like
one
who
breaks
a dog’s
neck;
whoever
presents
a grain
offering
is like
one
who
offers
pig’s
blood;
whoever
offers
frankincense is like
one
who
blesses
an
idol
. Indeed
, they have chosen
their own ways and delighted
in their abominations.
Whoso
slaughtereth
the
ox smiteth
a man ,
Whoso
sacrificeth
the
lamb beheadeth
a
dog,
Whoso
is bringing
up
a present
--
The
blood
of
a sow,
Whoso
is making
mention
of
frankincense ,
Is blessing
iniquity
. Yea
, they have fixed
on
their own ways ,
And in their abominations their
soul
hath
delighted
.
So
I will
choose
their punishment
and I will
bring terror
upon
them, because I called and no
one
answered
, I spoke
and no
one
listened.
But
they did
evil in My
sight
and chose
that in
which I did
not delight
. ”
I also
--
I
fix
on
their vexations,
And their
fears
I bring in
to
them, Because I have
called ,
and there
is
none
answering
, I spake,
and they have
not
hearkened,
And
they
do
the
evil things
in Mine
eyes,
And on
that which I desired
not --
fixed
.
You
who tremble
at
His word, hear
the
word
of
the
LORD:
“
Your brothers
who hate
you and
exclude
you because
of
My name
have
said
, ‘Let
the
LORD
be
glorified
that
we may
see
your joy !’
But they will
be
put
to
shame
. ”
Hear
a
word
of
Jehovah,
Ye
who are
trembling
unto
His word, Said
have
your brethren
who are
hating
you ,
Who
are
driving
you out,
for
My name's
sake:
`Honoured
is
Jehovah
, and
we look
on
your joy ,'
But they are
ashamed
.
Hear
the
uproar
from the city ;
listen
to
the
voice from the temple !
It
is
the voice of the
LORD
, repaying
His enemies what
they
deserve!
A
voice
of
noise
`is'
from the city ,
a
voice from the temple ,
The voice of Jehovah
, giving
recompence
to
His enemies .
“
Before she was
in
labor,
she gave
birth;
before she
was
in
pain
, she delivered a boy
.
Before she is
pained
she hath
brought
forth,
Before a
pang
cometh
to
her
, She hath
delivered a male
.
Who has
heard of
such
as
this? Who has
seen such
things
? Can
a
country
be
born
in a
day or
a nation be
delivered
in
an
instant
? Yet
as
soon
as
Zion
was
in
labor,
she gave
birth
to
her children
.
Who hath
heard anything
like
this? Who hath
seen anything
like
these
? Is
earth
caused
to
bring
forth
in one
day ?
Born
is
a nation at
once
? For
she hath
been
pained,
Zion
also
hath
borne
her sons
.
Shall
I bring a
baby
to the point
of
birth and not deliver
it
? ”
says
the
LORD.
“Or
will
I who deliver
close
the
womb
? ”
says
your
God.
`Do
I bring to the birth ,
And not cause
to
bring
forth
? '
saith
Jehovah,
`Am
not
I He
who is
causing
to
beget
? I
have
also
restrained,'
said
thy
God.
Be
glad
for
Jerusalem and rejoice
over
her, all who
love
her .
Rejoice greatly
with her, all who
mourn
over
her,
Rejoice
ye
with
Jerusalem ,
And be
glad
in
her, all ye
loving
her ,
Rejoice ye
with her for
joy
, All ye
are
mourning
for
her,
so that you
may
nurse
and be
satisfied at
her comforting
breasts;
you
may
drink
deeply
and delight
yourselves in
her
glorious
abundance.
So that ye
suck,
and have
been
satisfied ,
From
the
breast
of
her consolations,
So
that
ye
wring
out,
and have
delighted
yourselves From
the
abundance of
her
honour
.
For this
is
what
the
LORD
says
: “
I will
extend
peace
to her like
a river, and the wealth
of nations like
a
flowing
stream;
you
will
nurse
and be
carried
on her
arm
, and bounced
upon
her
knees.
For thus
said
Jehovah
: `Lo,
I am
stretching
out
to her peace
as
a river, And as
an
overflowing
stream
the honour
of nations ,
And ye
have
sucked,
on the
side
ye
are
carried
, And on
the
knees ye
are
dandled
.
As a
mother comforts
her
son
, so will
I comfort you, and
you
will
be
consoled
over
Jerusalem. ”
As one
whom
his
mother comforteth
, so do
I comfort you, Yea,
in
Jerusalem ye
are
comforted
.
When
you
see
, you
will
rejoice
, and you
will
flourish
like
grass ;
then
the hand of the
LORD
will
be
revealed
to
His servants, but
His
wrath
will
be
shown
to
His enemies.
And
ye
have
seen
, and
rejoiced
hath
your
heart
, And your
bones
as
tender
grass do
flourish,
And
the hand of Jehovah
hath
been
known
unto
His servants, And
He
hath
been
indignant
with
His enemies.
For behold
, the
LORD
will
come
with
fire —
His chariots are
like
a
whirlwind—
to execute
His anger with
fury
and His rebuke with
flames of fire.
For, lo,
Jehovah
in
fire cometh,
And
as
a
hurricane
His chariots ,
To refresh
in
fury
His anger ,
And His rebuke in
flames of fire.
For by fire and by His sword, the
LORD
will
execute
judgment on
all flesh ,
and many will
be
slain
by
the
LORD
.
For by fire and by His sword, Doth
Jehovah
do
judgment with
all flesh .
And many have
been
Jehovah's
pierced
ones
. '
“
Those who
consecrate
and purify
themselves to
enter
the groves—to
follow
one
in the center
of
those
who
eat
the
flesh of swine
and vermin
and rats—will
perish
together, ”
declares
the
LORD
.
Those sanctifying
and cleansing
themselves at
the gardens,
After
Ahad
in the midst,
Eating
flesh of the
sow,
And of
the
abomination,
and of
the
mouse,
Together are
consumed
, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
.
“
And I ,
knowing
their deeds
and thoughts, am
coming
to gather all nations and tongues, and they will
come and see
My glory
.
And I --
their works
and their
thoughts, I
come
to gather all the
nations and tongues, And they have
come and seen
My honour
.
I will
establish
a
sign
among them, and I
will
send
survivors
from
among
them to
the nations —to
Tarshish, Put
, and the
archers
of
Lud ;
to
Tubal
, Javan
, and the islands
far away
who have not heard of
My fame or
seen My
glory.
So
they will
proclaim
My
glory
among the
nations.
And
I have
set
among them a
sign
, And have
sent
out
of
them those
escaping
unto
the nations ,
(
Tarshish, Pul
, and Lud, drawing
bow
, Tubal
and Javan,
the isles
that
are
far off,)
Who have not heard My fame ,
nor
seen Mine
honour,
And
they have
declared
Mine
honour
among nations.
And they will
bring
all your brothers
from
all the nations as
a gift
to the
LORD
on horses and chariots
and wagons
, on mules and camels
, to
My holy mountain Jerusalem, ”
says
the
LORD
, “just
as the Israelites
bring an
offering
in a clean vessel to
the house of the
LORD
. ”
And they have
brought
all your brethren
out
of
all the nations ,
A present
to Jehovah,
On horses ,
and on
chariot,
and on
litters
, And
on mules ,
and on
dromedaries
, Unto
My holy mountain Jerusalem, said
Jehovah
, As the sons
of
Israel
bring the
present
in a clean vessel ,
Into
the house of Jehovah
.
“
And I
will
select
some
of them as
priests and
Levites, ”
says
the
LORD
.
And also
of them I
take
for
priests ,
For
Levites, said
Jehovah
.
“
For just
as the new heavens and the new earth ,
which
I will
make
, will
endure
before Me, ”
declares
the
LORD,
“
so your descendants
and your name will
endure
.
For ,
as the new heavens and the new earth that
I am
making
, Are
standing
before Me, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah!
So remain
doth
your seed
and your name.
From one
New
Moon
to another
and from one
Sabbath to another
, all
mankind
will
come to worship
before Me, ”
says
the
LORD
.
And
it
hath
been
from month
to month,
And from sabbath to sabbath
, Come do
all
flesh
to bow
themselves
before Me, Said
Jehovah
.
“As
they go
forth, they
will
see
the corpses
of the men who have
rebelled
against Me ;
for their worm will
never
die
, their fire will
never
be
quenched, and they will
be
a
horror
to all mankind.”
And
they have
gone
forth, And
looked
on
the carcases
of the men Who are
transgressing
against me ,
For their worm dieth
not
, And
their fire is
not
quenched, And they have
been
an
abhorrence
to all flesh!
