5 I will sing about the one I love,
a song about my loved one’s vineyard:ai
The one I love had a vineyard
on a very fertile hill.
2 He broke up the soil, cleared it of stones,
and planted it with the finest vines.aj
He built a tower in the middle of it
and even dug out a winepress there.
He expectedak it to yield good grapes,
but it yielded worthless grapes.al
3 So now, residents of Jerusalem
and men of Judah,
and my vineyard.
4 What more could I have done for my vineyard
than I did?a
Why, when I expected a yield of good grapes,
did it yield worthless grapes?
what I am about to do to my vineyard:
I will remove its hedge,b
and it will be consumed;
I will tear down its wall,c
and it will be trampled.
6 I will make it a wasteland.d
It will not be pruned or weeded;
thorns and briers will grow up.e
I will also give orders to the clouds
that rain should not fall on it.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of Armies
is the house of Israel,f
and the menA of Judah,
the plant he delighted in.
He expected justice
but saw injustice;
he expected righteousness
but heard cries of despair.
8 Woe to those who add house to houseg
and join field to field
until there is no more room
and you alone are left in the land.
9 I heard the Lord of Armies say:
Indeed, many housesh will become desolate,
grand and lovely ones without inhabitants.
10 For a ten-acreB vineyard will yield
only six gallons of wine,C
and ten bushelsD of seed will yield
only one bushel of grain.E
11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning
in pursuit of beer,i
who linger into the evening,
inflamed by wine.
12 At their feasts they have lyre, harp,
tambourine, flute, and wine.
They do not perceive the Lord’s actions,j
and they do not see the work of his hands.k
13 Therefore my people will go into exile
because they lack knowledge;l
herF dignitaries are starving,
and her masses are parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat
and opens wide its enormous jaws,m
and down go Zion’s dignitaries, her masses,
her crowds, and those who celebrate in her!
15 Humanity is brought low, each person is humbled,
and haughty eyes are humbled.n
16 But the Lord of Armies is exalted by his justice,o
and the holy Godp demonstrates his holiness through his righteousness.q
as if inG their own pastures,r
and resident aliensH will eat
among the ruins of the rich.
18 Woe to those who drag iniquity
with cords of deceits
and pull sin along with cart ropes,
“Let him hurry up and do his work quickly
so that we can see it!
Let the plant of the Holy One of Israelu take place
so that we can know it!”
20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,v
who substitute darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who substitute bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.
21 Woe to those who consider themselves wise
and judge themselves clever.A,w
22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine,
who are champions at pouring beer,x
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribey
and deprive the innocent of justice.
24 Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes straw
and as dry grass shrivels in the flame,
so their roots will become like something rotten
and their blossoms will blow away like dust,
for they have rejecteda
the instruction of the Lord of Armies,
and they have despised
the word of the Holy One of Israel.b
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger burnedc against his people.
He raised his hand against them and struck them;
the mountains quaked,d
and their corpses were like garbage in the streets.
In all this, his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is still raised to strike.e
26 He raises a signal flag for the distant nationsf
and whistlesg for them from the ends of the earth.
Look—how quickly and swiftly they come!
27 None of them grows weary or stumbles;h
no one slumbers or sleeps.
No belt is loose
and no sandal strap broken.
28 Their arrows are sharpened,
and all their bows strung.
Their horses’ hooves are like flint;
their chariot wheels are like a whirlwind.
29 Their roaring is like a lion’s;i
they roar like young lions;j
they growl and seize their prey
and carry it off,
and no one can rescue it.
30 On that day they will roar over it,
like the roaring of the sea.
When one looks at the land,
there will be darkness and distress;
light will be obscured by clouds.B
6 In the year that King Uzziahk died, I saw the Lordl seated on a high and loftym throne,n and the hem of his robe filled the temple. 2 SeraphimA were standing above him; they each had six wings:o with two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew.p 3 And one called to another:
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Armies;
his gloryq fills the whole earth.r
4 The foundations of the doorways shooks at the sound of their voices, and the temple was filled with smoke.
because I am a man of unclean lips
and live among a people of unclean lips,u
and because my eyes have seen the King,
the Lord of Armies.
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken from the altarv with tongs. 7 He touched my mouthw with it and said:
Now that this has touched your lips,
your iniquity is removed
and your sin is atoned for.x
8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord asking:
Who will I send?
Who will go for us?
I said:
Here I am. Send me.
Go! Say to these people:
Keep listening, but do not understand;y
keep looking, but do not perceive.
10 Make the mindsC of these people dull;
deafen their ears and blind their eyes;
otherwise they might see with their eyes
and hear with their ears,
understand with their minds,
turn back, and be healed.z
11 Then I said, “Until when, Lord?”aa And he replied:
Until cities lie in ruins without inhabitants,ab
houses are without people,
the land is ruined and desolate,
12 and the Lord drives the people far away,
leaving great emptiness in the land.
13 Though a tenth will remain in the land,
it will be burned again.
Like the terebinth or the oak
that leaves a stump when felled,
7 This took place during the reign of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah king of Judah:c Aram’s King Rezin and Israel’s King Pekah son of Remaliah went to fight against Jerusalem,d but they were not able to conquer it.
2 When it became known to the house of Davide that Aram had occupied Ephraim,f the heart of AhazA and the hearts of his people trembled like trees of a forest shaking in the wind.
3 The Lord said to Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear-jashubB,g to meet Ahaz at the end of the conduit of the upper pool,h by the road to the Launderer’s Field. 4 Say to him: Calm down and be quiet. Don’t be afraid or cowardlyi because of these two smoldering sticks, the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram, and the son of Remaliah. 5 For Aram, along with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has plotted harm against you. They say, 6 ‘Let’s go up against Judah, terrorize it, and conquer it for ourselves. Then we can install Tabeel’s son as king in it.’ ”
7 This is what the Lord God says:
It will not happen; it will not occur.j
8 The chief city of Aram is Damascus,
the chief of Damascus is Rezin
(within sixty-five years
Ephraim will be too shattered to be a people),
9 the chief city of Ephraim is Samaria,
and the chief of Samaria is the son of Remaliah.
If you do not stand firm in your faith,
then you will not stand at all.
10 Then the Lord spoke again to Ahaz: 11 “Ask for a signk from the Lord your God—it can be as deep as Sheol or as high as heaven.”
12 But Ahaz replied, “I will not ask. I will not test the Lord.”
13 Isaiahl said, “Listen, house of David! Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men? Will you also try the patience of my God?m 14 Therefore, the Lord himself will give youC a sign: See, the virgin will conceive,D have a son, and name him Immanuel.E,n 15 By the time he learns to reject what is bad and choose what is good,o he will be eating curdsF and honey.p 16 For before the boy knows to reject what is bad and choose what is good, the land of the two kings you dread will be abandoned. 17 The Lord will bring on you, your people, and your father’s house such a time as has never been since Ephraim separated from Judah:q He will bring the king of Assyria.”r
18 On that days
the Lord will whistlet to flies
at the farthest streams of the Nile
and to bees in the land of Assyria.
19 All of them will come and settle
in the steep ravines, in the clefts of the rocks,u
in all the thornbushes, and in all the water holes.
20 On that day the Lord will use a razorv hired from beyond the Euphrates River—the king of Assyriaw—to shave the hair on your heads, the hair on your legs, and even your beards.
a man will raise a young cow and two sheep,
22 and from the abundant milk they give
he will eat curds,
for every survivor in the land will eat curds and honey.x
every place where there were a thousand vines,
worth a thousand pieces of silver,
will become thorns and briers.y
24 A man will go there with bow and arrows
because the whole land will be thorns and briers.
25 You will not go to all the hills
that were once tilled with a hoe,
for fear of the thorns and briers.
Those hills will be places for oxen to graze
and for sheep to trample.

About Christian Standard BibleThe Christian Standard Bible (CSB) is a highly trustworthy, faithful translation that is proven to be the optimal blend of accuracy and readability. It’s as literal to the original as possible without sacrificing clarity. The CSB is poised to become the translation that pastors rely on and Bible readers turn to again and again to read and to share with others. The CSB is an original translation: more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations translated directly from the best available Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic source texts into English. Its source texts are the standard used by scholars and seminaries today. The CSB is trustworthy: the conservative, evangelical scholars of the CSB affirm the authority of Scripture as the inerrant Word of God and seek the highest level of faithfulness to the original and accuracy in their translation. These scholars and LifeWay, the non-profit ministry that stewards the CSB, also champion the Bible against cultural trends that would compromise its truths. The CSB is clear: it is as literal a translation of the ancient source texts as possible, but, in the many places throughout Scripture where a word-for-word rendering might obscure the meaning for a modern audience, it uses a more dynamic translation. In all cases, the intent is to convey the original meaning of God’s Word as faithfully and as clearly as possible. |
