1:1 The vision 2377 of Isaiah 3470 the son 1121 of Amoz 531, which he saw 2372 8804 concerning Judah 3063 and Jerusalem 3389 in the days 3117 of Uzziah 5818, Jotham 3147, Ahaz 271, [and] Hezekiah 3169, kings 4428 of Judah 3063.

1:2 Hear 8085 8798, O heavens 8064, and give ear 238 8685, O earth 776: for the LORD 3068 hath spoken 1696 8765, I have nourished 1431 8765 and brought up 7311 8790 children 1121, and they have rebelled 6586 8804 against me.

1:3 The ox 7794 knoweth 3045 8804 his owner 7069 8802, and the ass 2543 his master's 1167 crib 18: [but] Israel 3478 doth not know 3045 8804, my people 5971 doth not consider 995 8712.

1:4 Ah 1945 sinful 2398 8802 nation 1471, a people 5971 laden 3515 with iniquity 5771, a seed 2233 of evildoers 7489 8688, children 1121 that are corrupters 7843 8688: they have forsaken 5800 8804 853 the LORD 3068, they have provoked 5006 0 853 the Holy One 6918 of Israel 3478 unto anger 5006 8765, they are gone away 2114 8738 backward 268.(laden: Heb. of heaviness)(gone…: Heb. alienated, or, separated)

1:5 Why should ye be stricken 5221 8714 any more? ye will revolt 5627 more and more 3254 8686: the whole head 7218 is sick 2483, and the whole heart 3824 faint 1742.(revolt…: Heb. increase revolt)

1:6 From the sole 3709 of the foot 7272 even unto the head 7218 [there is] no soundness 4974 in it; [but] wounds 6482, and bruises 2250, and putrifying 2961 sores 4347: they have not been closed 2115 8804, neither bound up 2280 8795, neither mollified 7401 8795 with ointment 8081.(ointment: or, oil)

1:7 Your country 776 [is] desolate 8077, your cities 5892 [are] burned 8313 8803 with fire 784: your land 127, strangers 2114 8801 devour 398 8802 it in your presence, and [it is] desolate 8077, as overthrown 4114 by strangers 2114 8801.(overthrown…: Heb. the overthrow of)

1:8 And the daughter 1323 of Zion 6726 is left 3498 8738 as a cottage 5521 in a vineyard 3754, as a lodge 4412 in a garden of cucumbers 4750, as a besieged 5341 8803 city 5892.

1:9 Except 3884 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 had left 3498 8689 unto us a very small 4592 remnant 8300, we should have been 1961 8804 as Sodom 5467, [and] we should have been like 1819 8804 unto Gomorrah 6017.

1:10 Hear 8085 8798 the word 1697 of the LORD 3068, ye rulers 7101 of Sodom 5467; give ear 238 8685 unto the law 8451 of our God 430, ye people 5971 of Gomorrah 6017.

1:11 To what 4100 purpose [is] the multitude 7230 of your sacrifices 2077 unto me? saith 559 8799 the LORD 3068: I am full 7646 8804 of the burnt offerings 5930 of rams 352, and the fat 2459 of fed beasts 4806; and I delight 2654 8804 not in the blood 1818 of bullocks 6499, or of lambs 3532, or of he goats 6260.(he goats: Heb. great he goats)

1:12 When ye come 935 8799 to appear 7200 8736 before 6440 me, who hath required 1245 8765 this at your hand 3027, to tread 7429 8800 my courts 2691?(to appear: Heb. to be seen)

1:13 Bring 935 8687 no more 3254 8686 vain 7723 oblations 4503; incense 7004 is an abomination 8441 unto me; the new moons 2320 and sabbaths 7676, the calling 7121 8800 of assemblies 4744, I cannot away with 3201 8799; [it is] iniquity 205, even the solemn meeting 6116.(iniquity: or, grief)

1:14 Your new moons 2320 and your appointed feasts 4150 my soul 5315 hateth 8130 8804: they are a trouble 2960 unto me; I am weary 3811 8738 to bear 5375 8800 [them].

1:15 And when ye spread forth 6566 8763 your hands 3709, I will hide 5956 8686 mine eyes 5869 from you: yea, when ye make many 7235 8686 prayers 8605, I will not hear 8085 8802: your hands 3027 are full 4390 8804 of blood 1818.(make…: Heb. multiply prayer)(blood: Heb. bloods)

1:16 Wash 7364 8798 you, make you clean 2135 8690; put away 5493 8685 the evil 7455 of your doings 4611 from before 5048 mine eyes 5869; cease 2308 8798 to do evil 7489 8687;

1:17 Learn 3925 8798 to do well 3190 8687; seek 1875 8798 judgment 4941, relieve 833 8761 the oppressed 2541, judge 8199 8798 the fatherless 3490, plead 7378 8798 for the widow 490.(relieve: or, righten)

1:18 Come now 3212 8798, and let us reason together 3198 8735, saith 559 8799 the LORD 3068: though your sins 2399 be as scarlet 8144, they shall be as white 3835 8686 as snow 7950; though they be red 119 8686 like crimson 8438, they shall be as wool 6785.

1:19 If ye be willing 14 8799 and obedient 8085 8804, ye shall eat 398 8799 the good 2898 of the land 776:

1:20 But if ye refuse 3985 8762 and rebel 4784 8804, ye shall be devoured 398 8792 with the sword 2719: for the mouth 6310 of the LORD 3068 hath spoken 1696 8765 [it].

1:21 How is the faithful 539 8737 city 7151 become an harlot 2181 8802! it was full 4392 of judgment 4941; righteousness 6664 lodged 3885 8799 in it; but now murderers 7523 8764.

1:22 Thy silver 3701 is become dross 5509, thy wine 5435 mixed 4107 8803 with water 4325:

1:23 Thy princes 8269 [are] rebellious 5637 8802, and companions 2270 of thieves 1590: every one loveth 157 8802 gifts 7810, and followeth 7291 8802 after rewards 8021: they judge 8199 8799 not the fatherless 3490, neither doth the cause 7379 of the widow 490 come 935 8799 unto them.

1:24 Therefore saith 5002 8803 the Lord 113, the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635, the mighty One 46 of Israel 3478, Ah 1945, I will ease 5162 8735 me of mine adversaries 6862, and avenge 5358 8735 me of mine enemies 341 8802:

1:25 And I will turn 7725 8686 my hand 3027 upon thee, and purely 1253 purge away 6884 8799 thy dross 5509, and take away 5493 8686 all thy tin 913:(purely: Heb. according to pureness)

1:26 And I will restore 7725 8686 thy judges 8199 8802 as at the first 7223, and thy counsellors 3289 8802 as at the beginning 8462: afterward 310 thou shalt be called 7121 8735, The city 5892 of righteousness 6664, the faithful 539 8737 city 7151.

1:27 Zion 6726 shall be redeemed 6299 8735 with judgment 4941, and her converts 7725 8802 with righteousness 6666.(her…: or, they that return of her)

1:28 And the destruction 7667 of the transgressors 6586 8802 and of the sinners 2400 [shall be] together 3162, and they that forsake 5800 8802 the LORD 3068 shall be consumed 3615 8799.(destruction: Heb. breaking)

1:29 For they shall be ashamed 954 8799 of the oaks 352 which ye have desired 2530 8804, and ye shall be confounded 2659 8799 for the gardens 1593 that ye have chosen 977 8804.

1:30 For ye shall be as an oak 424 whose leaf 5929 fadeth 5034 8802, and as a garden 1593 that hath no water 4325.

1:31 And the strong 2634 shall be as tow 5296, and the maker 6467 of it as a spark 5213, and they shall both 8147 burn 1197 8804 together 3162, and none shall quench 3518 8764 [them].(maker…: or, and his work)
