⁴ And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, write.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ The LORD spake also unto me again, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ I say, sayest thou, but they are but vain words I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ It may be the LORD thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God, and will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that is left.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And this shall be a sign unto thee from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he hath spoken;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Keep silence before me, O islands; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble. feeble.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, dung, and drink their own piss piss piss with you?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ But they held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach the living God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² This is the word which the LORD hath spoken concerning him; The virgin, the daughter of Zion, hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ What shall I say? he hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done it: I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ For I beheld, and there was no man; even among them, and there was no counsellor, that, when I asked of them, could answer a word.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² 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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
