aKeep ye ||judgment, and do justice:
For bmy salvation is near to come,
And my righteousness to be revealed.
2 Blessed is cthe man that doeth this,
And cthe son of man that layeth hold on it;
dThat keepeth the sabbath from polluting it,
And keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
3 Neither let ethe son of the stranger, fthat hath joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying,
The Lord hath utterly separated me from his people:
Neither let gthe eunuch say, Behold, I am ha dry tree.
4 For thus saith the Lord unto the eunuchs dthat keep my sabbaths,
And choose the things that please me,
And take hold of my covenant;
5 Even unto them will I give in imine house and within my walls
kA place and la name better than of sons and of daughters:
I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 Also ethe sons of the stranger, fthat join themselves to the Lord,
To serve him, and to love the name of the Lord,
To be his servants,
Every one dthat keepeth the sabbath from polluting it,
And taketh hold of my covenant;
7 mEven them will I bring to my holy mountain,
And make them joyful in my house of prayer:
nTheir burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be oaccepted upon mine altar;
For pmine house shall be called an house of prayer qfor all people.
8 The Lord God which gathereth rthe outcasts of Israel saith,
Yet swill I gather others to him, †beside those that are gathered unto him.
9 tAll ye beasts of the field, come to devour,
Yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
10 His uwatchmen are vblind: they are all ignorant,
They are all dumb wdogs, they cannot bark;
||Sleeping, lying down, loving xto slumber.
11 Yea, they are †greedy dogs which †zcan never have enough,
And they are zashepherds that cannot understand:
They all look to their own way,
bEvery one for his gain, from his cquarter.
12 dCome ye, esay they, I will fetch wine,
And we will fill ourselves with strong drink;
And fto morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.
57 *The righteous perisheth, and no man alayeth it to heart:
And †merciful men are ctaken away, none considering
dThat the righteous cis taken away ||from the evil to come.
2 He shall ||enter into peace:
They shall rest in their ebeds,
Each one walking ||in his fuprightness.
3 But draw near hither, ye sons of ffthe sorceress,
gkThe seed of the adulterer and the whore.
4 Against whom do ye hsport yourselves?
Against whom imake ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue?
Are ye not children of transgression, ka seed of falsehood,
5 Enflaming yourselves ||with lidols llunder every green tree,
mSlaying the children in the valleys under nthe clifts of the rocks?
6 Among the smooth stones of the stream is thy portion;
They, they are thy lot:
Even to them hast thou poured a drink offering,
Thou hast offered a meat offering.
Should I receive comfort in these?
7 oUpon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set pthy bed:
Even thither wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.
8 qBehind the doors also and the posts hast thou set up rthy remembrance:
For sthou hast discovered thyself to another than me, and art gone up;
Thou hast enlarged pthy bed, and ||made thee a covenant with them;
tThou lovedst their bed ||uwhere thou sawest it.
9 And ||wthou wentest to the king with xointment,
And ydidst increase xthy perfumes,
And didst zsend thy messengers far off,
And didst debase thyself even unto hell.
10 aThou art wearied in the greatness of thy way;
Yet bsaidst thou not, There is no hope:
cThou hast found the ||life of thine hand;
Therefore thou wast not grieved.
11 And dof whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that ethou hast lied,
And dhast not remembered me, nor flaid it to thy heart?
gHave not I held my peace even of old,
And thou fearest me not?
12 I will declare thy righteousness,
And thy works; for they shall not profit thee.
13 When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee;
But the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them:
But hhe that putteth his trust in me ishall possess the land,
And shall inherit kmy holy mountain;
14 And shall say, lCast ye up, cast ye up, lmprepare the way,
Take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.
15 For thus saith the high and lofty One
That inhabiteth neternity, owhose name is Holy;
I dwell pin the high and qholy place,
rWith him also that is of a contrite and shumble spirit,
tTo revive the spirit of the humble,
And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
16 uFor I will not contend for ever,
Neither will I be always wroth:
For vthe spirit wshould fail before me,
And vthe souls xwhich I have made.
17 For the iniquity of yhis covetousness yywas I wroth, and smote him:
zI hid me, and was wroth,
And he went on †frowardly in the way of his heart.
18 I have seen his ways, and awill heal him:
I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to bhis mourners.
19 I create cthe fruit of the lips;
dePeace, peace fto him that is gfar off, and fto him that is near, saith the Lord;
And aI will heal him.
20 But hthe wicked are like the troubled sea,
When it cannot rest,
Whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
21 iThere is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
Lift up thy voice clike a trumpet,
And dshew my people their transgression,
And the house of Jacob their sins.
And edelight to know my ways,
As a nation that did righteousness,
And forsook not the ordinance of their God:
They ask of me the ordinances of justice;
fThey take delight in approaching to God.
3 gWherefore have we fasted, hsay they, and thou seest not?
Wherefore have we iafflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge?
Behold, kin the day of your fast ye find pleasure,
And lexact all your ||†mlabours.
4 Behold, nye fast for strife and debate,
And to smite with the fist of wickedness:
||Ye shall not fast as ye do this day,
oTo make your voice to be heard on high.
5 pIs it such a fast that I have chosen?
||A day for a man to iafflict his soul?
Is it to bow down his head as qa bulrush,
And rto spread ssackcloth and ashes under him?
Wilt thou call this a fast,
And an acceptable day to the Lord?
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen?
To loose tthe bands of wickedness,
And xto let the †oppressed go free,
And that ye break every yoke?
7 Is it not yzto deal thy bread to the hungry,
And ythat thou bring the poor that are ||cast out ato thy house?
zbWhen thou seest the naked, that thou cover him;
And that thou hide not thyself from cthine own flesh?
8 dThen shall thy light break forth as the morning,
And thine ehealth shall spring forth speedily:
And thy righteousness shall go before thee;
The glory of the Lord †shall be thy rereward.
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,
fThe putting forth of the finger, and gspeaking vanity;
10 And if thou hdraw out thy soul ito the hungry,
And ksatisfy the afflicted soul;
dThen shall thy light rise in obscurity,
And thy darkness be as the noonday:
11 And the Lord shall guide thee lcontinually,
And ksatisfy thy soul in †drought,
And make fat thy bones:
And thou shalt be mlike a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters †fail not.
12 And they that shall be of thee nshall build the old owaste places:
Thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations;
And thou shalt be called, pThe repairer of the breach,
The restorer of paths to dwell in.
13 If qthou turn away thy foot from the sabbath,
From doing thy pleasure on my holy day;
And call the sabbath ra delight,
The holy of the Lord, honourable;
And shalt honour him, not doing rrthine own ways,
Nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:
14 Then sshalt thou delight thyself in the Lord;
And I will tcause thee to ride tuupon the high places of the earth,
And feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father:
vFor the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
59 Behold, athe Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save;
Neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
2 But byour iniquities have separated between you and your God,
And your sins ||have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
3 For cyour hands dare defiled with blood,
And your fingers with iniquity;
Your lips ehave spoken lies,
Your tongue hath mmuttered perverseness.
4 None calleth for justice, nor any fpleadeth for truth:
They trust gin vanity, and espeak lies;
hiThey conceive mischief, and ibring forth iniquity.
5 They hatch ||cockatrice’ eggs,
And weave kthe spider’s web:
He that eateth of their eggs dieth,
And ||lthat which is crushed breaketh out into ma viper.
6 kTheir webs shall not become garments,
Neither shall they cover themselves with their works:
Their works are works of iniquity,
And the act of violence is in their hands.
nAnd they make haste to shed innocent blood:
Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
opWasting and †destruction are in their paths.
8 oThe way of peace they know not;
And there is no ||judgment in their qgoings:
rThey have made them crooked paths:
Whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.
9 Therefore is judgment far from us,
Neither doth justice overtake us:
sWe wait for light, but behold obscurity;
For brightness, but twe walk in darkness.
10 uWe grope for the wall like the blind,
And we grope as if we had no eyes:
We stumble uat noonday as in the night;
We are in desolate places as dead men.
And vmourn sore like doves:
sWe look for judgment, but there is none;
For salvation, but it is far off from us.
12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee,
And our sins testify against us:
For our transgressions are with us;
And as for our iniquities, wwe know them;
13 In transgressing and lying against the Lord,
And xdeparting away from our God,
Speaking oppression and revolt,
Conceiving and yuttering zfrom the heart ewords of falsehood.
14 And judgment is xturned away backward,
And justice standeth afar off:
For truth is fallen in the street,
And aequity cannot enter.
15 Yea, truth bfaileth;
And he that departeth from evil ||cmaketh himself a prey:
And the Lord saw it, and †it displeased him
That there was no judgment.
16 And dhe saw that there was no man,
And ewondered that there was no fintercessor:
gTherefore hhis arm brought salvation unto him;
And his righteousness, dit sustained him.
17 For ihe put on righteousness as a breastplate,
And an helmet of salvation upon his head;
And he put on the garments of kvengeance for clothing,
And was clad with zeal ias a cloke.
18 lAccording to their †deeds, accordingly mhe will repay,
nFury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies;
To othe islands he will repay recompence.
19 pSo shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west,
And his glory from the rising of the sun.
When the enemy shall come in qlike a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord shall ||rlift up a standard against him.
20 And sthe Redeemer shall come to Zion,
And unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.
21 As for me, tthis is my covenant with them, saith the Lord;
My spirit that is upon thee,
And umy 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.
60 Arise, a||shine; for thy light is come,
And bthe glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, cdthe darkness shall cover the earth,
And dgross darkness the people:
But the Lord shall arise upon thee,
And behis glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 And fthe Gentiles shall come to thy light,
And gkings to the brightness of thy rising.
4 hLift up thine eyes round about, and see:
hAll they gather themselves together, ithey come to thee:
jThy sons shall come from far,
And thy daughters shall be nursed kat thy side.
5 Then thou shalt see, and lflow together,
And thine heart shall fear, and mbe enlarged;
Because nthe ||oabundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee,
The ||fmforces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.
6 The multitude of camels shall cover thee,
pThe dromedaries of qMidian and rEphah;
All they from sSheba shall come:
They shall bring tgold and incense;
And they shall ushew forth the praises of the Lord.
7 All the flocks of vKedar shall be gathered together unto thee,
The rams of wNebaioth shall minister unto thee:
xThey shall come up with acceptance on mine altar,
And I will yglorify yythe house of bmy glory.
8 zWho are these that fly as a cloud,
And aas the doves to their windows?
9 Surely bcthe isles shall wait for me,
And dthe ships of cTarshish first,
gTheir silver and their gold with them,
hUnto the name of the Lord thy God,
And ito the Holy One of Israel, ibecause he hath glorified thee.
10 And kthe sons of strangers shall build up thy walls,
And ltheir kings shall minister unto thee:
For min my wrath I smote thee,
But nin my favour have I had mercy on thee.
11 Therefore othy gates shall be open continually;
They shall not be shut day nor night;
That men may bring unto thee the ||forces of the Gentiles,
And that lptheir kings may be brought.
12 For qthe nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish;
Yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
13 rThe glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee,
sThe fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together,
To tbeautify the place of my sanctuary;
And I will make uthe place of my feet glorious.
14 vThe sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee;
And all they that despised thee shall wbow themselves down at the soles of thy feet;
And they shall call thee, xThe city of the Lord,
yThe Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 Whereas thou hast been zforsaken and ahated,
So that no man went through thee,
I will make thee an eternal bexcellency,
A joy of many generations.
16 cThou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles,
And cshalt suck the breast of kings:
And cthou shalt know that dI the Lord am thy Saviour
cAnd thy Redeemer, ddthe mighty One of Jacob.
17 eFor brass I will bring gold,
And for iron I will bring silver,
And for wood brass,
And for stones iron:
I will also make thy officers fpeace,
And thine gexactors righteousness.
18 hViolence shall no more be heard in thy land,
iWasting nor destruction within thy borders;
But thou shalt call jthy walls Salvation,
And thy gates kPraise.
19 lThe sun shall be no more thy light by day;
lNeither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee:
But the Lord shall be unto thee man everlasting light,
20 pThy sun shall no more go down;
Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself:
For the Lord shall be thine everlasting light,
And qthe days of thy mourning shall be ended.
21 rThy people also shall be all righteous:
sThey shall inherit the land for ever,
tThe branch of my planting, uthe work of my hands, tvthat I may be glorified.
22 xA little one shall become a thousand,
And a small one a ystrong nation:
I the Lord will zhasten it in his time.
