Isaiah

Chapter 47

1 Come down,3381 and sit3427 in5921 the dust,6083 O virgin1330 daughter1323 of Babylon,894 sit3427 on the ground:776 there is no369 throne,3678 O daughter1323 of the Chaldeans:3778 for3588 thou shalt no3808 more3254 be called7121 tender7390 and delicate.6028

2 Take3947 the millstones,7347 and grind2912 meal:7058 uncover1540 thy locks,6777 make bare2834 the leg,7640 uncover1540 the thigh,7785 pass over5674 the rivers.5104

3 Thy nakedness6172 shall be uncovered,1540 yea,1571 thy shame2781 shall be seen:7200 I will take3947 vengeance,5359 and I will not3808 meet6293 thee as a man.120

4 As for our redeemer,1350 the LORD3068 of hosts6635 is his name,8034 the Holy One6918 of Israel.3478

5 Sit3427 thou silent,1748 and get935 thee into darkness,2822 O daughter1323 of the Chaldeans:3778 for3588 thou shalt no3808 more3254 be called,7121 The lady1404 of kingdoms.4467

6 I was wroth7107 with5921 my people,5971 I have polluted2490 mine inheritance,5159 and given5414 them into thine hand:3027 thou didst show7760 them no3808 mercy;7356 upon5921 the ancient2205 hast thou very3966 heavily laid3513 thy yoke.5923

7 And thou saidst,559 I shall be1961 a lady1404 forever:5769 so that5704 thou didst not3808 lay7760 these428 things to5921 thy heart,3820 neither3808 didst remember2142 the latter end319 of it.

8 Therefore hear8085 now6258 this,2063 thou that art given to pleasures,5719 that dwellest3427 carelessly,983 that sayest559 in thine heart,3824 I589 am, and none else beside657 5750 me; I shall not3808 sit3427 as a widow,490 neither3808 shall I know3045 the loss of children: 7908

9 But these428 two8147 things shall come935 to thee in a moment7281 in one259 day,3117 the loss of children,7908 and widowhood:489 they shall come935 upon5921 thee in their perfection8537 for the multitude7230 of thy sorceries,3785 and for the great3966 abundance6109 of thine enchantments.2267

10 For thou hast trusted982 in thy wickedness:7451 thou hast said,559 None369 seeth7200 me. Thy wisdom2451 and thy knowledge,1847 it1931 hath perverted7725 thee; and thou hast said559 in thine heart,3820 I589 am, and none else beside657 5750 me.

11 Therefore shall evil7451 come935 upon5921 thee; thou shalt not3808 know3045 from whence it riseth:7837 and mischief1943 shall fall5307 upon5921 thee; thou shalt not3808 be able3201 to put it off:3722 and desolation7722 shall come935 upon5921 thee suddenly,6597 which thou shalt not3808 know.3045

12 Stand5975 now4994 with thine enchantments,2267 and with the multitude7230 of thy sorceries,3785 wherein834 thou hast labored3021 from thy youth;4480 5271 if so be194 thou shalt be able3201 to profit,3276 if so be194 thou mayest prevail.6206

13 Thou art wearied3811 in the multitude7230 of thy counsels.6098 Let now4994 the astrologers,1895 8064 the stargazers,2372 3556 the monthly2320 prognosticators,3045 stand up,5975 and save3467 thee from these things that4480 834 shall come935 upon5921 thee.

14 Behold,2009 they shall be1961 as stubble;7179 the fire784 shall burn8313 them; they shall not3808 deliver5337 853 themselves5315 from the power4480 3027 of the flame:3852 there shall not369 be a coal1513 to warm2552 at, nor fire217 to sit3427 before5048 it.

15 Thus3651 shall they be1961 unto thee with whom834 thou hast labored,3021 even thy merchants,5503 from thy youth:4480 5271 they shall wander8582 every one376 to his quarter;5676 none369 shall save3467 thee.

Isaiah

Chapter 47

1 COME down and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground; there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.

2 Take the millstone and grind flour; remove your veil, cut off your white hair, uncover your legs, pass through the rivers.

3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, your shame shall be seen; I will execute vengeance upon you, and I will not meet you as a man.

4 As for our Saviour, the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.

5 Sit silent and go into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called, The mightiest of kingdoms.

6 I was angry with my people, for they have polluted my inheritance, so I delivered them into your hands; you showed them no mercy; upon the elders have you very heavily laid your yoke.

7 And you said, I shall be a mighty one for ever; so that you did not lay these things to your heart, neither did remember the end thereof.

8 Now therefore let her hear these things, she who is given to pleasures, who dwells in tranquillity, who says in her heart, I am, and there is none else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children;

9 But these two plagues shall come upon you in a moment, in one day: the loss of children and widowhood; they shall come upon you suddenly, for the multitude of your sorceries, and for the multitude of your magicians.

10 For you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, None sees me. Your wisdom and your knowledge have misled you; and you have said in your heart, I am, and there is none else besides me.

11 Therefore evil shall come upon you in the early morning, and you shall not know from whence it rises; and mischief shall fall upon you and you shall not be able to put it off; and desolation shall come upon you suddenly, which you shall not know.

12 Stand now with your magicians and with the multitude of your sorceries in which you have labored from your youth; perhaps you may be able to profit, perhaps you may strengthen yourself.

13 You are wearied in the multitude of your thoughts. Let now the Chaldeans stand up and save you, those who gaze into the heavens and at the stars; let them foretell by the moon the things that shall come upon you.

14 Behold, they have become as stubble which is consumed by the fire; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame; there are no coals to warm them, nor fire to sit before.

15 Thus have become to you your merchants with whom you have labored from your youth: they have wandered every one to his quarter, and there is none to save you.

1 Come down,3381 and sit3427 in5921 the dust,6083 O virgin1330 daughter1323 of Babylon,894 sit3427 on the ground:776 there is no369 throne,3678 O daughter1323 of the Chaldeans:3778 for3588 thou shalt no3808 more3254 be called7121 tender7390 and delicate.6028

1 COME down and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground; there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.

2 Take3947 the millstones,7347 and grind2912 meal:7058 uncover1540 thy locks,6777 make bare2834 the leg,7640 uncover1540 the thigh,7785 pass over5674 the rivers.5104

2 Take the millstone and grind flour; remove your veil, cut off your white hair, uncover your legs, pass through the rivers.

3 Thy nakedness6172 shall be uncovered,1540 yea,1571 thy shame2781 shall be seen:7200 I will take3947 vengeance,5359 and I will not3808 meet6293 thee as a man.120

3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, your shame shall be seen; I will execute vengeance upon you, and I will not meet you as a man.

4 As for our redeemer,1350 the LORD3068 of hosts6635 is his name,8034 the Holy One6918 of Israel.3478

4 As for our Saviour, the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.

5 Sit3427 thou silent,1748 and get935 thee into darkness,2822 O daughter1323 of the Chaldeans:3778 for3588 thou shalt no3808 more3254 be called,7121 The lady1404 of kingdoms.4467

5 Sit silent and go into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called, The mightiest of kingdoms.

6 I was wroth7107 with5921 my people,5971 I have polluted2490 mine inheritance,5159 and given5414 them into thine hand:3027 thou didst show7760 them no3808 mercy;7356 upon5921 the ancient2205 hast thou very3966 heavily laid3513 thy yoke.5923

6 I was angry with my people, for they have polluted my inheritance, so I delivered them into your hands; you showed them no mercy; upon the elders have you very heavily laid your yoke.

7 And thou saidst,559 I shall be1961 a lady1404 forever:5769 so that5704 thou didst not3808 lay7760 these428 things to5921 thy heart,3820 neither3808 didst remember2142 the latter end319 of it.

7 And you said, I shall be a mighty one for ever; so that you did not lay these things to your heart, neither did remember the end thereof.

8 Therefore hear8085 now6258 this,2063 thou that art given to pleasures,5719 that dwellest3427 carelessly,983 that sayest559 in thine heart,3824 I589 am, and none else beside657 5750 me; I shall not3808 sit3427 as a widow,490 neither3808 shall I know3045 the loss of children: 7908

8 Now therefore let her hear these things, she who is given to pleasures, who dwells in tranquillity, who says in her heart, I am, and there is none else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children;

9 But these428 two8147 things shall come935 to thee in a moment7281 in one259 day,3117 the loss of children,7908 and widowhood:489 they shall come935 upon5921 thee in their perfection8537 for the multitude7230 of thy sorceries,3785 and for the great3966 abundance6109 of thine enchantments.2267

9 But these two plagues shall come upon you in a moment, in one day: the loss of children and widowhood; they shall come upon you suddenly, for the multitude of your sorceries, and for the multitude of your magicians.

10 For thou hast trusted982 in thy wickedness:7451 thou hast said,559 None369 seeth7200 me. Thy wisdom2451 and thy knowledge,1847 it1931 hath perverted7725 thee; and thou hast said559 in thine heart,3820 I589 am, and none else beside657 5750 me.

10 For you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, None sees me. Your wisdom and your knowledge have misled you; and you have said in your heart, I am, and there is none else besides me.

11 Therefore shall evil7451 come935 upon5921 thee; thou shalt not3808 know3045 from whence it riseth:7837 and mischief1943 shall fall5307 upon5921 thee; thou shalt not3808 be able3201 to put it off:3722 and desolation7722 shall come935 upon5921 thee suddenly,6597 which thou shalt not3808 know.3045

11 Therefore evil shall come upon you in the early morning, and you shall not know from whence it rises; and mischief shall fall upon you and you shall not be able to put it off; and desolation shall come upon you suddenly, which you shall not know.

12 Stand5975 now4994 with thine enchantments,2267 and with the multitude7230 of thy sorceries,3785 wherein834 thou hast labored3021 from thy youth;4480 5271 if so be194 thou shalt be able3201 to profit,3276 if so be194 thou mayest prevail.6206

12 Stand now with your magicians and with the multitude of your sorceries in which you have labored from your youth; perhaps you may be able to profit, perhaps you may strengthen yourself.

13 Thou art wearied3811 in the multitude7230 of thy counsels.6098 Let now4994 the astrologers,1895 8064 the stargazers,2372 3556 the monthly2320 prognosticators,3045 stand up,5975 and save3467 thee from these things that4480 834 shall come935 upon5921 thee.

13 You are wearied in the multitude of your thoughts. Let now the Chaldeans stand up and save you, those who gaze into the heavens and at the stars; let them foretell by the moon the things that shall come upon you.

14 Behold,2009 they shall be1961 as stubble;7179 the fire784 shall burn8313 them; they shall not3808 deliver5337 853 themselves5315 from the power4480 3027 of the flame:3852 there shall not369 be a coal1513 to warm2552 at, nor fire217 to sit3427 before5048 it.

14 Behold, they have become as stubble which is consumed by the fire; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame; there are no coals to warm them, nor fire to sit before.

15 Thus3651 shall they be1961 unto thee with whom834 thou hast labored,3021 even thy merchants,5503 from thy youth:4480 5271 they shall wander8582 every one376 to his quarter;5676 none369 shall save3467 thee.

15 Thus have become to you your merchants with whom you have labored from your youth: they have wandered every one to his quarter, and there is none to save you.
