the LORD saith, Because
the daughters of
Zion are
haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and
wanton eyes, walking and
mincing as
they go, and making a

their feet:

smite with a
scab the crown of
the head of
the daughters of
Zion, and
the LORD will discover
their secret parts.

the heads of
the daughters of
Zion, and

their feet, and
their cauls, and
their round tires like
the moon,

the Lord will take away
their finery:
their anklets and headbands and crescents;
The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
their pendants, bracelets, and veils;
The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings,
their headdresses,
ankle chains, and sashes;
their perfume bottles and charms;

their signet rings and nose rings;

apparel, and
the mantles, and
the wimples, and
the crisping pins,
their festive robes, capes, cloaks, and purses;
The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails.
and their mirrors, linen garments, tiaras, and shawls.

fragrance there will be a
stench; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of styled hair,

create upon every dwelling place of mount
Zion, and upon her
assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and
the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all
the glory shall be a defence.

create over all of Mount
Zion and over her
assemblies a cloud of smoke by day and a
glowing flame of fire by night. For over all

the daytime from
the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a
covert from storm and from rain.

And he
fenced it, and gathered out
the stones
thereof, and planted it with
the choicest vine, and built a tower in
the midst of it, and also made a winepress
therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
He
dug it up and cleared
the stones and planted
the finest vines. He built a
watchtower in
the middle and
dug out a winepress as well. He waited for
the vineyard to yield good grapes, but
the fruit it produced was
sour!
And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my
vineyard: I will take away
the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down
the wall
thereof, and it shall be
trodden down:
Now I will tell you what I am about to do to My
vineyard: I will take away its
hedge, and it will be consumed; I will
tear down its wall, and it will be
trampled.

pruned, nor
digged; but
there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command
the clouds that
they rain no rain upon it.
I will make it a wasteland, neither
pruned nor cultivated, and thorns and briers will grow up. I will command
the clouds that rain shall not fall on it.”

the vineyard of
the LORD of hosts is
the house of Israel, and
the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.

Woe unto
them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till
there be no place, that
they may be placed alone in
the midst of
the earth!

the land.

the LORD of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be
desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant.

desolate, great mansions left unoccupied.
Yea, ten acres of
vineyard shall yield one bath, and
the seed of an homer shall yield an
ephah.

vineyard will yield but a bath of wine, and a homer of seed only an
ephah of grain.”

them that rise up early in
the morning, that
they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame

the evening, to be inflamed by wine.
And
the harp, and
the viol,
the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in
their feasts: but
they regard not
the work of
the LORD, neither consider
the operation of his hands.
At
their feasts are
the lyre and
harp, tambourines and flutes and wine.
They disregard
the actions of
the LORD and fail to see
the work of His hands.

they have no knowledge: and
their honourable men are
famished, and
their multitude dried up with
thirst.

their glory, and
their multitude, and
their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.

Zion’s nobles and masses, her revelers and carousers!

exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be
sanctified in righteousness.

the LORD of Hosts will be
exalted by His justice, and
the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.

the ruins of
the wealthy.
Woe unto
them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a
cart rope:
Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of
deceit and pull sin along with
cart ropes,
That say, Let him make speed, and
hasten his work, that we may see it: and let
the counsel of
the Holy One of Israel draw
nigh and come, that we may know it!
to those who say, “Let Him
hurry and
hasten His work so that we may see it! Let
the plan of
the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”
Woe unto
them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.
Woe unto
them that are wise in
their own eyes, and
prudent in
their own sight!
Woe to those who are wise in
their own eyes and
clever in
their own sight.
Woe unto
them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to
mingle strong drink:
Woe to those who are heroes in drinking wine and champions in
mixing strong drink,
Which
justify the wicked for reward, and take away
the righteousness of
the righteous from him!
who
acquit the guilty for a
bribe and deprive
the innocent of justice.
Therefore as
the fire devoureth
the stubble, and
the flame consumeth
the chaff, so
their root shall be as
rottenness, and
their blossom shall go up as dust: because
they have cast away
the law of
the LORD of hosts, and
despised the word of
the Holy One of Israel.
Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes
the straw, and as dry grass shrivels in
the flame, so
their roots will decay and
their blossoms will blow away like dust; for
they have rejected
the instruction of
the LORD of Hosts and
despised the word of
the Holy One of Israel.
Therefore is
the anger of
the LORD
kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against
them, and hath
smitten them: and
the hills did
tremble, and
their carcases were
torn in
the midst of
the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
Therefore the anger of
the LORD burns against His people; His hand is raised against
them to strike
them down.
The mountains
quake, and
the corpses lay like refuse in
the streets.
Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
And he will lift up an
ensign to
the nations from far, and will hiss unto
them from
the end of
the earth: and, behold,
they shall come with speed swiftly:
He lifts a
banner for
the distant nations and whistles for those at
the ends of
the earth. Behold—how speedily and swiftly
they come!
None of
them grows
weary or stumbles; no one slumbers or sleeps. No belt is loose and no
sandal strap is broken.
Whose arrows are sharp, and all
their bows bent,
their horses’
hoofs shall be counted like flint, and
their wheels like a
whirlwind:
Their arrows are sharpened, and all
their bows are
strung.
The hooves of
their horses are like flint;
their chariot wheels are like a
whirlwind.
Their roaring shall be like a lion,
they shall
roar like young lions:
yea,
they shall
roar, and lay hold of
the prey, and shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it.
Their roaring is like that of a lion;
they roar like young lions.
They growl and seize
their prey;
they carry it away from
deliverance.
And in that day
they shall
roar against
them like
the roaring of
the sea: and if one look unto
the land, behold darkness and sorrow, and
the light is
darkened in
the heavens
thereof.
In that day
they will
roar over it, like
the roaring of
the sea. If one looks over
the land, he will see darkness and distress; even
the light will be obscured by clouds.
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
In
the year that King Uzziah died, I saw
the Lord seated on a throne, high and
exalted; and
the train of His
robe filled
the temple.
Above it stood
the seraphims: each one had six wings; with
twain he covered his face, and with
twain he covered his feet, and with
twain he did fly.
Above Him stood
seraphim, each having six wings: With two wings
they covered
their faces, with two
they covered
their feet, and with two
they were flying.
And one
cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is
the LORD of hosts:
the whole earth is full of his glory.
And they were calling out to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory.”
And
the posts of
the door moved at
the voice of him that
cried, and
the house was filled with smoke.
At
the sound of
their voices
the doorposts and thresholds
shook, and
the temple was filled with smoke.
Then said I,
Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in
the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen
the King,
the LORD of hosts.
Then I said: “
Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips dwelling among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen
the King,
the LORD of Hosts.”
Then flew one of
the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with
the tongs from off
the altar:
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”
Make
the heart of this people fat, and make
their ears heavy, and shut
their eyes; lest
they see with
their eyes, and hear with
their ears, and understand with
their heart, and convert, and be
healed.
Make
the hearts of this people calloused;
deafen their ears and close
their eyes. Otherwise
they might see with
their eyes, hear with
their ears, understand with
their hearts, and turn and be
healed.”
Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until
the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and
the houses without man, and
the land be utterly
desolate,
Then I asked: “How long, O Lord?” And He replied: “Until
the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, until
the houses are left unoccupied and
the land is
desolate and
ravaged,
And
the LORD have removed men far away, and
there be a great
forsaking in
the midst of
the land.
until
the LORD has driven men far away and
the land is utterly
forsaken.
But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a
teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in
them, when
they cast
their leaves: so
the holy seed shall be
the substance
thereof.
And though a tenth remains in
the land, it will be burned again. As
the terebinth and oak leave stumps when felled, so
the holy seed will be a
stump in
the land.”
And it came to pass in
the days of
Ahaz the son of Jotham,
the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin
the king of Syria, and Pekah
the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
Now in
the days that
Ahaz son of Jotham,
the son of Uzziah, was king of Judah, Rezin king of
Aram marched up to
wage war against Jerusalem. He was accompanied by Pekah son of Remaliah
the king of Israel, but he could not overpower
the city.
