Chapter 30
Isai MKJV 30:1  Woe to the rebellious sons, says the LORD, who make advice, but not of Me; and who cover with a covering, but not of My Spirit, that they add sin to sin;
Isai MKJV 30:2  those who set out to go down to Egypt and have not asked at My mouth; to take refuge in the strength of Pharaoh and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
Isai MKJV 30:3  Therefore the strength of Pharaoh shall be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt shall be your curse.
Isai MKJV 30:4  For his rulers were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
Isai MKJV 30:5  They were all ashamed of a people who could not profit them, nor be a help nor gain, but a shame and also a reproach.
Isai MKJV 30:6  The burden concerning the beasts of the south. Into the land of trouble and woe. The lioness and the lion are from them; the viper, and the fiery flying serpent. They carry their riches on the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people that cannot profit.
Isai MKJV 30:7  For Egypt helps vainly, and worthlessly. So I have cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
Isai MKJV 30:8  Now go, write it before them in a tablet, and note it in a book, so that it may be for the time to come forever and ever,
Isai MKJV 30:9  that this is a rebellious people, lying sons. They are sons who will not hear the law of the LORD;
Isai MKJV 30:10  who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Do not prophesy to us right things, speak to us smooth things, prophesy falsehood;
Isai MKJV 30:11  go out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
Isai MKJV 30:12  Therefore so says the Holy One of Israel, Because you have despised this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rest on them;
Isai MKJV 30:13  therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly, in an instant.
Isai MKJV 30:14  And He shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces. He shall have no pity, so that there shall not be found in the breaking of it a shard to take fire from the hearth, or to take water out of the pit.
Isai MKJV 30:15  For so says the Lord Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, In returning and rest you shall be saved; and in quietness and hope shall be your strength. And you were not willing.
Isai MKJV 30:16  But you said, No; for we will flee on a horse. Therefore you shall flee. And you said, We will ride on the swift; therefore those who pursue you shall be swift.
Isai MKJV 30:17  One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five you shall flee, until you are left as a pole on the top of a mountain, and as a sign on a hill.
Isai MKJV 30:18  And so the LORD waits to be gracious to you. And therefore He is exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For the LORD is a God of judgment; blessed are all those who wait for Him.
Isai MKJV 30:19  For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem; you shall weep no more; He will be very gracious to you at the voice of your cry. When He hears it, He will answer you.
Isai MKJV 30:20  And the LORD gives you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction; yet your teachers shall not be removed into a corner any more, but your eyes shall see your teachers.
Isai MKJV 30:21  And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk in it, when you turn to the right hand and when you turn to the left.
Isai MKJV 30:22  You shall also defile the covering of your graven images of silver, and the ornament of your molten images of gold. You shall cast them away like a menstruous cloth. You shall say to it, Get away.
Isai MKJV 30:23  Then He shall give the rain for your seed, with which you sow the ground. And the bread of the produce of the earth also shall be fat and plentiful. In that day your cattle shall feed in large pastures.
Isai MKJV 30:24  Also the oxen and the young asses that plow the ground shall eat clean fodder, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fork.
Isai MKJV 30:25  And there shall be on every high mountain, and on every high hill, rivers, streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Isai MKJV 30:26  And the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the break of His people and heals the stroke of their wound.
Isai MKJV 30:27  Behold, the name of the LORD comes from far, burning with His anger, and uplifting of smoke; His lips are full of fury, and His tongue like a devouring fire.
Isai MKJV 30:28  And like an overflowing stream, His breath shall reach to the middle of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity. And a bridle will be in the jaws of the people, causing them to go astray.
Isai MKJV 30:29  You shall have a song, as in the keeping of a holy feast night; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a flute to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
Isai MKJV 30:30  And the LORD shall cause His glorious voice to be heard, and the bringing down of His arm shall be seen with raging anger and flame of a devouring fire, cloudburst and storm and hailstones.
Isai MKJV 30:31  For through the voice of the LORD, the Assyrian shall be beaten down, who struck with a rod.
Isai MKJV 30:32  And in every place which the ordained staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay on him, it shall be with tambourines and harps; in battles of shaking He will fight with them.
Isai MKJV 30:33  For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared. He has made it deep and large. He makes great with fire and wood. The breath of the LORD kindles it, like a torrent of brimstone.
