Chapter 57
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:1 | The righteous perishes, and no man lays [it] to heart: and merciful men [are] taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil [to come]. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:2 | He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, [each one] walking [in] his uprightness. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:3 | But come here, ye sons of the sorceress, generation of the adulterer and the whore. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:4 | Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom do ye make a wide mouth, [and] draw out the tongue? [Are] ye not rebellious sons, a lying seed of transgression, | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:5 | inflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clefts of the rocks? | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:6 | Among the smooth [stones] of the valley [is] thy portion; they, they [are] thy lot: even unto them hast thou poured a drink offering, thou hast offered a present. Should I not avenge these things? | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:7 | Upon the lofty and high mountain thou hast set thy bed: even there thou didst go up to offer sacrifice. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:8 | Behind the doors also and the posts thou hast set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered [thyself to another] than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed and made thee [a covenant] with them; thou didst loved their bed wherever thou didst see [it]. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:9 | And thou didst go to the king with ointment and didst multiply thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst debase [thyself even] unto Sheol. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:10 | Thou became wearied in the multitude of thy ways; [yet] thou didst not say, There is no remedy: thou hast found that which thou wast searching for; therefore thou repented not. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:11 | And of whom hast thou reverenced or feared? Why dost thou lie; that thou hast not remembered me, nor have I come to thy thought? Have I not held my peace even of old, and thou hast never feared me? | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:12 | I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:13 | When thou criest, let thy companions deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take [them]: but he that waits in me shall have the land by inheritance and shall possess the mountain of my holiness. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:14 | And shall say, Clear away, clear away, level the way, take away the stumblingblocks out of the way of my people. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:15 | For thus has said the high and lofty One that inhabits eternity, whose name [is] The Holy [One]; I dwell in the high place and in holiness and with him also [that is] of a contrite and humble spirit to cause the spirit of the humble to live and to cause the heart of the contrite ones to live. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:16 | For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for by me is the spirit covered by the body, and I have made the souls. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:17 | For the iniquity of his covetousness I was wroth and smote him: I hid [my face] and was wroth, and he went on rebelliously in the way of his heart. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:18 | I have seen his ways and will heal him: I will lead him also and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:19 | I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to [him that is] far off and to [him that is] near, said the LORD; and healed him. | |
Isai | Jubilee2 | 57:20 | But the wicked [are] like the sea in tempest, that cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. | |
