  48:1 ¶
Hear these [words], ye house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of Judah{gr.Juda}, who swear by the name of the Lord God of Israel, making mention [of it, but] not with truth, nor with righteousness; |
|
48:1 ¶
Hear°°
ye this,°
O house°
of Jacob,°
which are called°°
by the name°
of Israel,°
and are come forth°°
out of the waters°°
of Judah,°
which swear°°
by the name°
of Yahweh,°
and make mention°°
of the Elohim°
of Israel,°
[but] not°
in truth,°
nor°
in righteousness.° |
|
48:2
maintaining also the name of the holy city, and staying themselves on the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name. The former things I have already declared; |
|
48:2
For°
they call°°
themselves°
of the holy°
city,°°
and stay°°
themselves°
upon°
the Elohim°
of Israel;°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth°
[is] his name.° |
|
48:3
and they that have proceeded out of my mouth, and it became well known; I wrought suddenly, and [the events] came to pass. |
|
48:3
I have declared°°
the former things°
from the beginning;°°
and they went forth°°
out of my mouth,°°
and I shewed°°
them; I did°°
[them] suddenly,°
and they came to pass.°° |
|
48:4
I know that thou art stubborn, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy forehead brazen. |
|
48:4
Because I knew°°°
that°
thou°
[art] obstinate,°
and thy neck°
[is] an iron°
sinew,°
and thy brow°
brass;° |
|
48:5
And I told thee of old what [should be] before it came upon thee; I made it known to thee, lest thou shouldest say, [My] idols have done [it] for me; and shouldest say, [My] graven and molten images have commanded me. |
|
48:5
I have even from the beginning°°
declared°°
[it] to thee; before°
it came to pass°°
I shewed°°
[it] thee: lest°
thou shouldest say,°°
Mine idol°
hath done°°
them, and my graven image,°
and my molten image,°
hath commanded°°
them. |
|
48:6
Ye have heard all this, but ye have not known: yet I have made known to thee the new things from henceforth, which are coming to pass, and thou saidst not, |
|
48:6
Thou hast heard,°°
see°°
all°
this; and will not°
ye°
declare°°
[it]? I have shewed°°
thee new things°
from this time,°°
even hidden things,°°
and thou didst not°
know°°
them. |
|
48:7
Now they come to pass, and not formerly: and thou heardest not of them in former days: say not thou, Yea, I know them. |
|
48:7
They are created°°
now,°
and not°
from the beginning;°°
even before°
the day°
when thou heardest°°
them not;°
lest°
thou shouldest say,°°
Behold,°
I knew°°
them. |
|
48:8
Thou hast neither known, nor understood, neither from the beginning have I opened thine ears: for I knew that thou wouldest surely deal treacherously, and wouldest be called a transgressor even from the womb. |
|
48:8
Yea,°
thou heardest°°
not;°
yea,°
thou knewest°°
not;°
yea,°
from that time°°
[that] thine ear°
was not°
opened:°°
for°
I knew°°
that thou wouldest deal very°°
treacherously,°°
and wast called°°
a transgressor°°
from the womb.°° |
|
48:9 ¶
For mine own sake will I shew thee my wrath, and will bring before thee my glorious acts, that I may not utterly destroy thee. |
|
48:9 ¶
For my name's°
sake°°
will I defer°°
mine anger,°
and for my praise°
will I refrain°°
for thee, that I cut thee not off.°°° |
|
48:10
Behold, I have sold thee, [but] not for silver; but I have rescued thee from the furnace of affliction. |
|
48:10
Behold,°
I have refined°°
thee, but not°
with silver;°
I have chosen°°
thee in the furnace°
of affliction.° |
|
48:11
For mine own sake I will do [this] for thee, because my name is profaned; and I will not give my glory to another. |
|
48:11
For mine own sake,°
[even] for mine own sake,°
will I do°°
[it]: for°
how°
should [my name] be polluted?°°
and I will not°
give°°
my glory°
unto another.° |
|
48:12 ¶
Hear me, O Jacob, and Israel whom I call; I am the first, and I endure for ever. |
|
48:12 ¶
Hearken°°
unto°
me, O Jacob°
and Israel,°
my called;°°
I°
[am] he;°
I°
[am] the first,°
I°
also°
[am] the last.° |
|
48:13
My hand also has founded the earth, and my right hand has fixed the sky: I will call them, and they shall stand together. |
|
48:13
Mine hand°
also°
hath laid the foundation°°
of the earth,°
and my right hand°
hath spanned°°
the heavens:°
[when] I°
call°°
unto°
them, they stand up°°
together.° |
|
48:14
And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to thee I have fulfilled thy desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans. |
|
48:14
All°
ye, assemble°°
yourselves,°
and hear;°°
which°
among them hath declared°°°
these°
[things]? Yahweh°
hath loved°°
him: he will do°°
his pleasure°
on Babylon,°
and his arm°
[shall be on] the Chaldeans.° |
|
48:15
I have spoken, I have called, I have brought him, and made his way prosperous. |
|
48:15
I,°
[even] I,°
have spoken;°°
yea,°
I have called°°
him: I have brought°°
him, and he shall make his way°
prosperous.°° |
|
48:16 ¶
Draw nigh to me, and hear ye these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, [even] the Lord, and his Spirit, hath sent me. |
|
48:16 ¶
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°
Adonai°
Yahweh,°
and his Spirit,°
hath sent°°
me. |
|
48:17
Thus saith the Lord that delivered thee, the Holy One of Israel; I am thy God, I have shewn thee how thou shouldest find the way wherein thou shouldest walk. |
|
48:17
Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
thy Redeemer,°°
the Holy One°
of Israel;°
I°
[am] Yahweh°
thy Elohim°
which teacheth°°
thee to profit,°°
which leadeth°°
thee by the way°
[that] thou shouldest go.°°° |
|
48:18
And if thou hadst hearkened to my commandments, [then] would thy peace have been like a river, and thy righteousness as a wave of the sea. |
|
48:18
O that°
thou hadst hearkened°°
to my commandments!°
then had thy peace°
been°
as a river,°
and thy righteousness°
as the waves°
of the sea:° |
|
48:19
Thy seed also would have been as the sand, and the offspring of thy belly as the dust of the ground: neither now shalt thou by any means be utterly destroyed, neither shall thy name perish before me. |
|
48:19
Thy seed°
also had been°
as the sand,°
and the offspring°
of thy bowels°
like the gravel°
thereof; his name°
should not°
have been cut off°°
nor°
destroyed°°
from before°°
me. |
|
48:20 ¶
Go forth of Babylon, thou that fleest from the Chaldeans: utter aloud a voice of joy, and let this be made known, proclaim it to the end of the earth; say ye, The Lord hath delivered his servant Jacob. |
|
48:20 ¶
Go ye forth°°
of Babylon,°°
flee°°
ye from the Chaldeans,°°
with a voice°
of singing°
declare°°
ye, tell°°
this,°
utter°°
it [even] to°
the end°
of the earth;°
say°°
ye, Yahweh°
hath redeemed°°
his servant°
Jacob.° |
|
48:21
And if they shall thirst, he shall lead them through the desert; he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock: the rock shall be cloven, and the water shall flow forth, and my people shall drink. |
|
48:21
And they thirsted°°
not°
[when] he led°°°
them through the deserts:°
he caused the waters°
to flow°°
out of the rock°°
for them: he clave°°
the rock°
also, and the waters°
gushed out.°° |
|
48:22
There is no joy, saith the Lord, to the ungodly. |
|
48:22
[There is] no°
peace,°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
unto the wicked.° |
