:1. The vision <2377 chazown > of Isaiah <3470 Y@sha<yah > the son <1121 ben > of Amoz <0531 >Amowts >, which <0834 >aher > he saw <2372 chazah > concerning <5921 <al > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > in the days <3117 yowm > of Uzziah <5818 <Uzziyah >, Jotham <3147 Yowtham >, Ahaz <0271 >Achaz >, [and] Hezekiah <2396 Chizqiyah >, kings <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >.

:2. Hear <8085 shama< >, O heavens <8064 shamayim >, and give ear <0238 >azan >, O earth <0776 >erets >:for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath spoken <1696 dabar >, I have nourished <1431 gadal > and brought <7311 ruwm > up children <1121 ben >, and they have rebelled <6586 pasha< > against me.

:3 The ox <7794 showr > knoweth <3045 yada< > his owner <7069 qanah >, and the ass <2543 chamowr > his master's <1167 ba<al > crib <18>:[but] Israel <3478 Yisra>el > doth not know <3045 yada< >, my people <5971 <am > doth not consider <0995 biyn >.

:4 Ah <1945 howy > sinful <2398 chata> > nation <1471 gowy >, a people <5971 <am > laden <3515 kabed > with iniquity <5771 <avon >, a seed <2233 zera< > of evildoers <7489 ra<a< >, children <1121 ben > that are corrupters <7843 shachath >:they have forsaken <5800 <azab > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, they have provoked <5006 na>ats > the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > unto anger <5006 na>ats >, they are gone <2114 zuwr > away backward <0268 >achowr >.

:5 Why should ye be stricken <5221 nakah > any more <5750 <owd >? ye will revolt <5627 carah > more and more:the whole <3605 kol > head <7218 ro>sh > is sick <2483 choliy >, and the whole <3605 kol > heart <3824 lebab > faint <1742 davvay >.

:6 From the sole <3709 kaph > of the foot <7272 regel > even unto the head <7218 ro>sh > [there is] no <0369 >ayin > soundness <4974 m@thom > in it; [but] wounds <6482 petsa< >, and bruises <2250 chabbuwrah >, and putrifying <2961 tariy > sores <4347 makkah >:they have not been closed <2115 zuwr >, neither <3808 lo> > bound <2280 chabash > up, neither <3808 lo> > mollified <7401 rakak > with ointment <8081 shemen >.

:7 Your country <0776 >erets > [is] desolate <8077 sh@mamah >, your cities <5892 <iyr > [are] burned <8313 saraph > with fire <0784 >esh >:your land <0127 >adamah >, strangers <2114 zuwr > devour <0398 >akal > it in your presence <5048 neged >, and [it is] desolate <8077 sh@mamah >, as overthrown <4114 mahpekah > by strangers <2114 zuwr >.

:8 And the daughter <1323 bath > of Zion <6726 Tsiyown > is left <3498 yathar > as a cottage <5521 cukkah > in a vineyard <3754 kerem >, as a lodge <4412 m@luwnah > in a garden of cucumbers <4750 miqshah >, as a besieged <5341 natsar > city <5892 <iyr >.

:9 Except <3884 luwle> > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > had left <3498 yathar > unto us a very <4592 m@<at > small <4592 m@<at > remnant <8300 sariyd >, we should have been <1961 hayah > as Sodom <5467 C@dom >, [and] we should have been like <1819 damah > unto Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah >.

:10. Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, ye rulers <7101 qatsiyn > of Sodom <5467 C@dom >; give ear <0238 >azan > unto the law <8451 towrah > of our God <0430 >elohiym >, ye people <5971 <am > of Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah >.

:11 To what <4100 mah > purpose [is] the multitude <7230 rob > of your sacrifices <2077 zebach > unto me? saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >:I am full <7646 saba< > of the burnt <5930 <olah > offerings of rams <0352 >ayil >, and the fat <2459 cheleb > of fed <4806 m@riy> > beasts <4806 m@riy> >; and I delight <2654 chaphets > not in the blood <1818 dam > of bullocks <6499 par >, or of lambs <3532 kebes >, or of he goats <6260 <attuwd >.

:12 When <3588 kiy > ye come <0935 bow> > to appear <7200 ra>ah > before <6440 paniym > me, who <4310 miy > hath required <1245 baqash > this <2063 zo>th > at your hand <3027 yad >, to tread <7429 ramac > my courts <2691 chatser >?

:13 Bring <0935 bow> > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > vain <7723 shav> > oblations <4503 minchah >; incense <7004 q@toreth > is an abomination <8441 tow<ebah > unto me; the new <2320 chodesh > moons <2320 chodesh > and sabbaths <7676 shabbath >, the calling <7121 qara> > of assemblies <4744 miqra> >, I cannot away with; [it is] iniquity <0205 >aven >, even the solemn <2282 chag > meeting <6116 <atsarah >.

:14 Your new <2320 chodesh > moons <2320 chodesh > and your appointed <4150 mow<ed > feasts my soul <5315 nephesh > hateth <8130 sane> >:they are a trouble <2960 torach > unto me; I am weary <3811 la>ah > to bear <5375 nasa> > [them].

:15 And when ye spread <6566 paras > forth your hands <3709 kaph >, I will hide <5956 <alam > mine eyes <5869 <ayin > from you:yea <1571 gam >, when <3588 kiy > ye make many <7235 rabah > prayers <8605 t@phillah >, I will not hear <8085 shama< >:your hands <3027 yad > are full <4390 male> > of blood <1818 dam >.

:16. Wash <7364 rachats > you, make you clean <2135 zakah >; put <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the evil <7455 roa< > of your doings <4611 ma<alal > from before <5048 neged > mine eyes <5869 <ayin >; cease <2308 chadal > to do evil <7489 ra<a< >;

:17 Learn <3925 lamad > to do well <3190 yatab >; seek <1875 darash > judgment <4941 mishpat >, relieve <0833 >ashar > the oppressed <2541 chamowts >, judge <8199 shaphat > the fatherless <3490 yathowm >, plead <7378 riyb > for the widow <0490 >almanah >.

:18 Come <3212 yalak > now <4994 na> >, and let us reason <3198 yakach > together, saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >:though <0518 >im > your sins <2399 chet> > be as scarlet <8144 shaniy >, they shall be as white <3835 laban > as snow <7950 sheleg >; though <0518 >im > they be red <0119 >adam > like <1819 damah > crimson <8438 towla< >, they shall be as wool <6785 tsemer >.

:19 If <0518 >im > ye be willing <14> and obedient <8085 shama< >, ye shall eat <0398 >akal > the good <2898 tuwb > of the land <0776 >erets >:

:21. How <0349 >eyk > is the faithful <0539 >aman > city <7151 qiryah > become <1961 hayah > an harlot <2181 zanah >! it was full <4392 male> > of judgment <4941 mishpat >; righteousness <6664 tsedeq > lodged <3885 luwn > in it; but now <6258 <attah > murderers <7523 ratsach >.

:1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the days <3117 yowm > of Ahaz <0271 >Achaz > the son <1121 ben > of Jotham <3147 Yowtham >, the son <1121 ben > of Uzziah <5818 <Uzziyah >, king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, [that] Rezin the king <4428 melek > of Syria <0758 >Aram >, and Pekah <6492 Peqach > the son <1121 ben > of Remaliah <7425 R@malyahuw >, king <4428 melek > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, went <5927 <alah > up toward Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > to war <4421 milchamah > against <5921 <al > it, but could <3201 yakol > not prevail <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > it.

:2 And it was told <5046 nagad > the house <1004 bayith > of David <1732 David >, saying <0559 >amar >, Syria <0758 >Aram > is confederate <5117 nuwach > with Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >. And his heart <3824 lebab > was moved <5128 nuwa< >, and the heart <3824 lebab > of his people <5971 <am >, as the trees <6086 <ets > of the wood <3293 ya<ar > are moved <5128 nuwa< > with the wind <7307 ruwach >.

:5 Because Syria <0758 >Aram >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >, and the son <1121 ben > of Remaliah <7425 R@malyahuw >, have taken evil <7451 ra< > counsel <3289 ya<ats > against <5921 <al > thee, saying <0559 >amar >,
