1Sing <07442> (8798)_, O barren <06135>_, thou [that] didst not bear <03205> (8804)_; break forth <06476> (8798) into singing <07440>_, and cry aloud <06670> (8761)_, thou [that] didst not travail with child <02342> (8804)_: for more <07227> [are] the children <01121> of the desolate <08074> (8802) than the children <01121> of the married wife <01166> (8803)_, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>_.
2Enlarge <07337> (8685) the place <04725> of thy tent <0168>_, and let them stretch forth <05186> (8686) the curtains <03407> of thine habitations <04908>_: spare <02820> (8799) not, lengthen <0748> (8685) thy cords <04340>_, and strengthen <02388> (8761) thy stakes <03489>_;
3For thou shalt break forth <06555> (8799) on the right hand <03225> and on the left <08040>_; and thy seed <02233> shall inherit <03423> (8799) the Gentiles <01471>_, and make the desolate <08074> (8737) cities <05892> to be inhabited <03427> (8686)_.
4Fear <03372> (8799) not; for thou shalt not be ashamed <0954> (8799)_: neither be thou confounded <03637> (8735)_; for thou shalt not be put to shame <02659> (8686)_: for thou shalt forget <07911> (8799) the shame <01322> of thy youth <05934>_, and shalt not remember <02142> (8799) the reproach <02781> of thy widowhood <0491> any more.
5For thy Maker <06213> (8802) [is] thine husband <01166> (8802)_; the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [is] his name <08034>_; and thy Redeemer <01350> (8802) the Holy One <06918> of Israel <03478>_; The God <0430> of the whole earth <0776> shall he be called <07121> (8735)_. {Maker: Heb. Makers}
6For the LORD <03068> hath called <07121> (8804) thee as a woman <0802> forsaken <05800> (8803) and grieved <06087> (8803) in spirit <07307>_, and a wife <0802> of youth <05271>_, when thou wast refused <03988> (8735)_, saith <0559> (8804) thy God <0430>_.
7For a small <06996> moment <07281> have I forsaken <05800> (8804) thee; but with great <01419> mercies <07356> will I gather <06908> (8762) thee.
8In a little <08241> wrath <07110> I hid <05641> (8689) my face <06440> from thee for a moment <07281>_; but with everlasting <05769> kindness <02617> will I have mercy <07355> (8765) on thee, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> thy Redeemer <01350> (8802)_.
9For this [is as] the waters <04325> of Noah <05146> unto me: for [as] I have sworn <07650> (8738) that the waters <04325> of Noah <05146> should no more go over <05674> (8800) the earth <0776>_; so have I sworn <07650> (8738) that I would not be wroth <07107> (8800) with thee, nor rebuke <01605> (8800) thee.
10For the mountains <02022> shall depart <04185> (8799)_, and the hills <01389> be removed <04131> (8799)_; but my kindness <02617> shall not depart <04185> (8799) from thee, neither shall the covenant <01285> of my peace <07965> be removed <04131> (8799)_, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> that hath mercy <07355> (8764) on thee.
11O thou afflicted <06041>_, tossed with tempest <05590> (8802)_, [and] not comforted <05162> (8794)_, behold, I will lay <07257> (8688) thy stones <068> with fair colours <06320>_, and lay thy foundations <03245> (8804) with sapphires <05601>_.
12And I will make <07760> (8804) thy windows <08121> of agates <03539>_, and thy gates <08179> of carbuncles <068> <0688>_, and all thy borders <01366> of pleasant <02656> stones <068>_.
13And all thy children <01121> [shall be] taught <03928> of the LORD <03068>_; and great <07227> [shall be] the peace <07965> of thy children <01121>_.
14In righteousness <06666> shalt thou be established <03559> (8709)_: thou shalt be far <07368> (8798) from oppression <06233>_; for thou shalt not fear <03372> (8799)_: and from terror <04288>_; for it shall not come near <07126> (8799) thee.
15Behold, they shall surely <01481> (8800) gather together <01481> (8799)_, [but] not <0657> by me: whosoever <04310> shall gather together <01481> (8804) against thee shall fall <05307> (8799) for thy sake.
16Behold, I have created <01254> (8804) the smith <02796> that bloweth <05301> (8802) the coals <06352> in the fire <0784>_, and that bringeth forth <03318> (8688) an instrument <03627> for his work <04639>_; and I have created <01254> (8804) the waster <07843> (8688) to destroy <02254> (8763)_.
17No weapon <03627> that is formed <03335> (8714) against thee shall prosper <06743> (8799)_; and every tongue <03956> [that] shall rise <06965> (8799) against thee in judgment <04941> thou shalt condemn <07561> (8686)_. This [is] the heritage <05159> of the servants <05650> of the LORD <03068>_, and their righteousness <06666> [is] of me, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>_.
