Dual Panel1I am sought <01875> (8738) of [them that] asked <07592> (8804) not <03808> [for me]; I am found <04672> (8738) of [them that] sought <01245> (8765) me not <03808>_: I said <0559> (8804)_, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation <01471> [that] was not called <07121> (8795) by my name <08034>_.
2I have spread out <06566> (8765) my hands <03027> all the day <03117> unto a rebellious <05637> (8802) people <05971>_, which walketh <01980> (8802) in a way <01870> [that was] not good <02896>_, after <0310> their own thoughts <04284>_;
3A people <05971> that provoketh me to anger <03707> (8688) continually <08548> to my face <06440>_; that sacrificeth <02076> (8802) in gardens <01593>_, and burneth incense <06999> (8764) upon altars of brick <03843>_; {upon...: Heb. upon bricks}
4Which remain <03427> (8802) among the graves <06913>_, and lodge <03885> (8799) in the monuments <05341> (8803)_, which eat <0398> (8802) swine's <02386> flesh <01320>_, and broth <04839> (8675) <06564> of abominable <06292> [things is in] their vessels <03627>_; {broth: or, pieces}
5Which say <0559> (8802)_, Stand <07126> (8798) by thyself, come not near <05066> (8799) to me; for I am holier <06942> (8804) than thou. These [are] a smoke <06227> in my nose <0639>_, a fire <0784> that burneth <03344> (8802) all the day <03117>_. {nose: or, anger}
6Behold, [it is] written <03789> (8803) before <06440> me: I will not keep silence <02814> (8799)_, but will recompense <07999> (8765)_, even recompense <07999> (8765) into their bosom <02436>_,
7Your iniquities <05771>_, and the iniquities <05771> of your fathers <01> together <03162>_, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>_, which have burned incense <06999> (8765) upon the mountains <02022>_, and blasphemed <02778> (8765) me upon the hills <01389>_: therefore will I measure <04058> (8804) their former <07223> work <06468> into their bosom <02436>_.
8Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>_, As the new wine <08492> is found <04672> (8735) in the cluster <0811>_, and [one] saith <0559> (8804)_, Destroy <07843> (8686) it not; for a blessing <01293> [is] in it: so will I do <06213> (8799) for my servants <05650>_' sakes, that I may not destroy <07843> (8687) them all.
9And I will bring forth <03318> (8689) a seed <02233> out of Jacob <03290>_, and out of Judah <03063> an inheritor <03423> (8802) of my mountains <02022>_: and mine elect <0972> shall inherit <03423> (8804) it, and my servants <05650> shall dwell <07931> (8799) there.
10And Sharon <08289> shall be a fold <05116> of flocks <06629>_, and the valley <06010> of Achor <05911> a place for the herds <01241> to lie down in <07258>_, for my people <05971> that have sought <01875> (8804) me.
11But ye [are] they that forsake <05800> (8802) the LORD <03068>_, that forget <07913> my holy <06944> mountain <02022>_, that prepare <06186> (8802) a table <07979> for that troop <01409> (8677) <01408>_, and that furnish <04390> (8764) the drink offering <04469> unto that number <04507>_. {troop: or, Gad} {number: or, Meni, a pagan god}
12Therefore will I number <04487> (8804) you to the sword <02719>_, and ye shall all bow down <03766> (8799) to the slaughter <02874>_: because when I called <07121> (8804)_, ye did not answer <06030> (8804)_; when I spake <01696> (8765)_, ye did not hear <08085> (8804)_; but did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> before mine eyes <05869>_, and did choose <0977> (8804) [that] wherein I delighted <02654> (8804) not.
13Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>_, Behold, my servants <05650> shall eat <0398> (8799)_, but ye shall be hungry <07456> (8799)_: behold, my servants <05650> shall drink <08354> (8799)_, but ye shall be thirsty <06770> (8799)_: behold, my servants <05650> shall rejoice <08055> (8799)_, but ye shall be ashamed <0954> (8799)_:
14Behold, my servants <05650> shall sing <07442> (8799) for joy <02898> of heart <03820>_, but ye shall cry <06817> (8799) for sorrow <03511> of heart <03820>_, and shall howl <03213> (8686) for vexation <07667> of spirit <07307>_. {vexation: Heb. breaking}
15And ye shall leave <03240> (8689) your name <08034> for a curse <07621> unto my chosen <0972>_: for the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> shall slay <04191> (8689) thee, and call <07121> (8799) his servants <05650> by another <0312> name <08034>_:
16That he who blesseth <01288> (8693) himself in the earth <0776> shall bless <01288> (8691) himself in the God <0430> of truth <0543>_; and he that sweareth <07650> (8737) in the earth <0776> shall swear <07650> (8735) by the God <0430> of truth <0543>_; because the former <07223> troubles <06869> are forgotten <07911> (8738)_, and because they are hid <05641> (8738) from mine eyes <05869>_.
17For, behold, I create <01254> (8802) new <02319> heavens <08064> and a new <02319> earth <0776>_: and the former <07223> shall not be remembered <02142> (8735)_, nor come <05927> (8799) into mind <03820>_. {come...: Heb. come upon the heart}
18But be ye glad <07797> (8798) and rejoice <01523> (8798) for ever <05703> [in that] which I create <01254> (8802)_: for, behold, I create <01254> (8802) Jerusalem <03389> a rejoicing <01525>_, and her people <05971> a joy <04885>_.
19And I will rejoice <01523> (8804) in Jerusalem <03389>_, and joy <07797> (8804) in my people <05971>_: and the voice <06963> of weeping <01065> shall be no more heard <08085> (8735) in her, nor the voice <06963> of crying <02201>_.
20There shall be no more thence an infant <05764> of days <03117>_, nor an old man <02205> that hath not filled <04390> (8762) his days <03117>_: for the child <05288> shall die <04191> (8799) an hundred <03967> years <08141> old <01121>_; but the sinner <02398> (8802) [being] an hundred <03967> years <08141> old <01121> shall be accursed <07043> (8792)_.
21And they shall build <01129> (8804) houses <01004>_, and inhabit <03427> (8804) [them]; and they shall plant <05193> (8804) vineyards <03754>_, and eat <0398> (8804) the fruit <06529> of them.
22They shall not build <01129> (8799)_, and another <0312> inhabit <03427> (8799)_; they shall not plant <05193> (8799)_, and another <0312> eat <0398> (8799)_: for as the days <03117> of a tree <06086> [are] the days <03117> of my people <05971>_, and mine elect <0972> shall long enjoy <01086> (8762) the work <04639> of their hands <03027>_. {shall long...: Heb. shall make them continue long, or, shall wear out}
23They shall not labour <03021> (8799) in vain <07385>_, nor bring forth <03205> (8799) for trouble <0928>_; for they [are] the seed <02233> of the blessed <01288> (8803) of the LORD <03068>_, and their offspring <06631> with them.
24And it shall come to pass, that before they call <07121> (8799)_, I will answer <06030> (8799)_; and while they are yet speaking <01696> (8764)_, I will hear <08085> (8799)_.
25The wolf <02061> and the lamb <02924> shall feed <07462> (8799) together <0259>_, and the lion <0738> shall eat <0398> (8799) straw <08401> like the bullock <01241>_: and dust <06083> [shall be] the serpent's <05175> meat <03899>_. They shall not hurt <07489> (8686) nor destroy <07843> (8686) in all my holy <06944> mountain <02022>_, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>_.
