Isaiah 10 (kjv)

10

WoeH1945 unto them that decreeH2710 unrighteousH205 decreesH2711, and that writeH3789 grievousnessH5999 which they have prescribedH3789;2To turn asideH5186 the needyH1800 from judgmentH1779, and to take awayH1497 the rightH4941 from the poorH6041 of my peopleH5971, that widowsH490 may be their preyH7998, and that they may robH962 the fatherlessH3490!3And what will ye doH6213 in the dayH3117 of visitationH6486, and in the desolationH7722 which shall comeH935 from farH4801? to whom will ye fleeH5127 for helpH5833? and where will ye leaveH5800 your gloryH3519?4Without me they shallH1115 bow downH3766 under the prisonersH616, and they shall fallH5307 under the slainH2026. For all this his angerH639 is not turned awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretched out stillH5186.

5OH1945 AssyrianH804, the rodH7626 of mine angerH639, and the staffH4294 in their handH3027 is mine indignationH2195.6I will sendH7971 him against an hypocriticalH2611 nationH1471, and against the peopleH5971 of my wrathH5678 will I give him a chargeH6680, to takeH7997 the spoilH7998, and to takeH962 the preyH957, and to tread them downH7760 H4823 like the mireH2563 of the streetsH2351.7Howbeit he meanethH1819 not so, neither doth his heartH3824 thinkH2803 so; but it is in his heartH3824 to destroyH8045 and cut offH3772 nationsH1471 not a fewH4592.8For he saithH559, Are not my princesH8269 altogetherH3162 kingsH4428?9Is not CalnoH3641 as CarchemishH3751? is not HamathH2574 as ArpadH774? is not SamariaH8111 as DamascusH1834?10As my handH3027 hath foundH4672 the kingdomsH4467 of the idolsH457, and whose graven imagesH6456 did excel them of JerusalemH3389 and of SamariaH8111;11Shall I not, as I have doneH6213 unto SamariaH8111 and her idolsH457, so doH6213 to JerusalemH3389 and her idolsH6091?12Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the LordH136 hath performedH1214 his whole workH4639 upon mountH2022 ZionH6726 and on JerusalemH3389, I will punishH6485 the fruitH6529 of the stoutH1433 heartH3824 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and the gloryH8597 of his highH7312 looksH5869.13For he saithH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have doneH6213 it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I am prudentH995: and I have removedH5493 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971, and have robbedH8154 their treasuresH6259 H6264, and I have put downH3381 the inhabitantsH3427 like a valiantH47 H3524 man:14And my handH3027 hath foundH4672 as a nestH7064 the richesH2428 of the peopleH5971: and as one gatherethH622 eggsH1000 that are leftH5800, have I gatheredH622 all the earthH776; and there was none that movedH5074 the wingH3671, or openedH6475 the mouthH6310, or peepedH6850.15Shall the axeH1631 boastH6286 itself against him that hewethH2672 therewith? or shall the sawH4883 magnifyH1431 itself against him that shakethH5130 it? as if the rodH7626 should shakeH5130 itself against them that lift it upH7311, or as if the staffH4294 should lift upH7311 itself, as if it were no woodH6086.16Therefore shall the LordH113, the LordH136 H3068 of hostsH6635, sendH7971 among his fat onesH4924 leannessH7332; and under his gloryH3519 he shall kindleH3344 a burningH3350 like the burning of a fireH784.17And the lightH216 of IsraelH3478 shall be for a fireH784, and his Holy OneH6918 for a flameH3852: and it shall burnH1197 and devourH398 his thornsH7898 and his briersH8068 in oneH259 dayH3117;18And shall consumeH3615 the gloryH3519 of his forestH3293, and of his fruitful fieldH3759, both soulH5315 and bodyH1320: and they shall be as when a standardbearerH5263 faintethH4549.19And the restH7605 of the treesH6086 of his forestH3293 shall be fewH4557, that a childH5288 may writeH3789 them.

20And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the remnantH7605 of IsraelH3478, and such as are escapedH6413 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, shall no more againH3254 stayH8172 upon him that smoteH5221 them; but shall stayH8172 upon the LORDH3068, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, in truthH571.21The remnantH7605 shall returnH7725, even the remnantH7605 of JacobH3290, unto the mightyH1368 GodH410.22For though thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be as the sandH2344 of the seaH3220, yet a remnantH7605 of them shall returnH7725: the consumptionH3631 decreedH2782 shall overflowH7857 with righteousnessH6666.

23For the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 shall makeH6213 a consumptionH3617, even determinedH2782, in the midstH7130 of all the landH776.24Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635, O my peopleH5971 that dwellestH3427 in ZionH6726, be not afraidH3372 of the AssyrianH804: he shall smiteH5221 thee with a rodH7626, and shall lift upH5375 his staffH4294 against thee, after the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714.25For yet a veryH4213 little whileH4592, and the indignationH2195 shall ceaseH3615, and mine angerH639 in their destructionH8399.26And the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall stir upH5782 a scourgeH7752 for him according to the slaughterH4347 of MidianH4080 at the rockH6697 of OrebH6159: and as his rodH4294 was upon the seaH3220, so shall he lift it upH5375 after the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714.27And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that his burdenH5448 shall be taken awayH5493 from off thy shoulderH7926, and his yokeH5923 from off thy neckH6677, and the yokeH5923 shall be destroyedH2254 becauseH6440 of the anointingH8081.28He is comeH935 to AiathH5857, he is passedH5674 to MigronH4051; at MichmashH4363 he hath laid upH6485 his carriagesH3627:29They are gone overH5674 the passageH4569: they have taken up their lodgingH4411 at GebaH1387; RamahH7414 is afraidH2729; GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586 is fledH5127.30Lift upH6670 thy voiceH6963, O daughterH1323 ofH1530 GallimH1554: cause it to be heardH7181 unto LaishH3919, O poorH6041 AnathothH6068.31MadmenahH4088 is removedH5074; the inhabitantsH3427 of GebimH1374 gather themselves to fleeH5756.32As yet shall he remainH5975 at NobH5011 that dayH3117: he shall shakeH5130 his handH3027 against the mountH2022 of the daughterH1323 H1004 of ZionH6726, the hillH1389 of JerusalemH3389.33Behold, the LordH113, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, shall lopH5586 the boughH6288 with terrorH4637: and the high onesH7311 of statureH6967 shall be hewn downH1438, and the haughtyH1364 shall be humbledH8213.34And he shall cut downH5362 the thicketsH5442 of the forestH3293 with ironH1270, and LebanonH3844 shall fallH5307 by a mighty oneH117.
