ISAIAH CHAPTER 32
- Isaiah 32:1 Lo, for righteousness doth a king reign, As to princes, for judgment they rule.
- 32:2 And each hath been as a hiding-place [from] wind, And as a secret hiding-place [from] inundation, As rivulets of waters in a dry place, As a shadow of a heavy rock in a weary land.
- 32:3 And not dazzled are the eyes of beholders, And the ears of hearers do attend.
- 32:4 And the heart of those hastened Understandeth to know, And the tongue of stammerers hasteth to speak clearly.
- 32:5 A fool is no more called 'noble,' And to a miser it is not said, 'rich;'
- 32:6 For a fool speaketh folly, And his heart doth iniquity, to do profanity, And to speak concerning YHWH error, To empty the soul of the hungry, Yea, drink of the thirsty he causeth to lack.
- 32:7 And the miser -- his instruments [are] evil, He hath counselled wicked devices, To corrupt the poor with lying sayings, Even when the needy speaketh justly.
- 32:8 And the noble counselled noble things, And he for noble things riseth up.
- 32:9 Women, easy ones, rise, hear my voice, Daughters, confident ones, give ear [to] my saying,
- Isaiah 32:10 Days and a year ye are troubled, O confident ones, For consumed hath been harvest, The gathering cometh not.
- 32:11 Tremble ye women, ye easy ones, Be troubled, ye confident ones, Strip and make bare, with a girdle on the loins,
- 32:12 For breasts they are lamenting, For fields of desire, for the fruitful vine.
- 32:13 Over the ground of my people thorn -- brier goeth up, Surely over all houses of joy of the exulting city,
- 32:14 Surely the palace hath been left, The multitude of the city forsaken, Fort and watch-tower hath been for dens unto the age, A joy of wild asses -- a pasture of herds;
- 32:15 Till emptied out on us is the Spirit from on high, And a wilderness hath become a fruitful field, And the fruitful field for a forest is reckoned.
- 32:16 And dwelt in the wilderness hath judgment, And righteousness in the fruitful field remaineth.
- 32:17 And a work of the righteousness hath been peace, And a service of the righteousness -- Keeping quiet and confidence unto the age.
- 32:18 And dwelt hath My people in a peaceful habitation, And in stedfast tabernacles, And in quiet resting-places.
- 32:19 And it hath hailed in the going down of the forest, And in the valley is the city low.
- Isaiah 32:20 Happy [are] ye sowing by all waters, Sending forth the foot of the ox and the ass!

ISAIAH CHAPTER 33

- 33:3 From the voice of a multitude fled have peoples, From thine exaltation scattered have been nations.
- 33:4 And gathered hath been your spoil, A gathering of the caterpillar, As a running to and fro of locusts is he running on it.
- 33:5 Set on high is YHWH, for He is dwelling on high, He filled Zion [with] judgment and righteousness,
- 33:6 And hath been the stedfastness of thy times, The strength of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge, Fear of YHWH -- it [is] His treasure.
- 33:7 Lo, 'Their Ariel,' they have cried without, Messengers of peace do weep bitterly.
- 33:8 Desolated have been highways, Ceased hath he who passeth along the path, He hath broken covenant, He hath despised enemies, He hath not esteemed a man.
- 33:9 Mourned, languished hath the land, Confounded hath been Lebanon, Withered hath been Sharon as a wilderness, And shaking are Bashan and Carmel.
- Isaiah 33:10 Now, do I arise, saith YHWH, Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up.
- 33:11 Ye conceive chaff, ye bear stubble, Your spirit! -- fire devoureth you.
- 33:12 And peoples have been [as] burnings of lime, Thorns, as sweepings, with fire they burn.
- 33:13 Hear, ye far off, that which I have done, And know, ye near ones, My might.
- 33:14 Afraid in Zion have been sinners, Seized hath trembling the profane: Who doth dwell for us -- consuming fire, Who doth dwell for us -- burnings of the age?
- 33:15 Whoso is walking righteously, And is speaking uprightly, Kicking against gain of oppressions, Shaking his hands from taking hold on a bribe, Stopping his ear from hearing of blood, And shutting his eyes from looking on evil,
- 33:16 He high places doth inhabit, Strongholds of rock [are] his high tower, His bread hath been given, his waters stedfast.
- 33:17 A king in his beauty, see do thine eyes, They see a land afar off.
- 33:18 Thy heart doth meditate terror, Where [is] he who is counting? Where [is] he who is weighing? Where [is] he who is counting the towers?
- 33:19 The strong people thou seest not, A people deeper of lip than to be understood, Of a scorned tongue, there is no understanding.
- Isaiah 33:20 See Zion, the city of our meetings, Thine eyes see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, A tent not taken down, Not removed are its pins for ever, And none of its cords are broken.
- 33:21 But there mighty [is] YHWH for us, A place of rivers -- streams broad of sides, No ship with oars doth go into it, And a mighty ship doth not pass over it.
- 33:22 For YHWH our judge, YHWH our lawgiver, YHWH our king -- He doth save us.
- 33:23 Left have been thy ropes, They strengthen not rightly their mast, They have not spread out a sail, Then apportioned hath been a prey of much spoil, The lame have taken spoil.
- 33:24 Nor doth an inhabitant say, 'I was sick,' The people that is dwelling in it, is forgiven of iniquity!

ISAIAH CHAPTER 34
- Isaiah 34:1 Come near, ye nations, to hear, And ye peoples, give attention, Hear doth the earth and its fulness, The world, and all its productions.
- 34:2 For wrath [is] to YHWH against all the nations, And fury against all their host, He hath devoted them to destruction, He hath given them to slaughter.
- 34:3 And their wounded are cast out, And their carcases cause their stench to ascend, And melted have been mountains from their blood.
- 34:4 And consumed have been all the host of the heavens, And rolled together as a book have been the heavens, And all their hosts do fade, As the fading of a leaf of a vine, And as the fading one of a fig-tree.
- 34:5 For soaked in the heavens was My sword, Lo, on Edom it cometh down, On the people of My curse for judgment.
- 34:6 A sword [is] to YHWH -- it hath been full of blood, It hath been made fat with fatness, With blood of lambs and he-goats. With fat of kidneys of rams, For a sacrifice [is] to YHWH in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

- 34:12 [To] the kingdom her freemen they call, But there are none there, And all her princes are at an end.
- 34:13 And gone up her palaces have thorns, Nettle and bramble [are] in her fortresses, And it hath been a habitation of dragons, A court for daughters of an ostrich.
- 34:14 And met have Ziim with Aiim, And the goat for its companion calleth, Only there rested hath the night-owl, And hath found for herself a place of rest.

ISAIAH CHAPTER 35
- Isaiah 35:1 They joy from the wilderness and dry place, And rejoice doth the desert, and flourish as the rose,

- 35:7 And the mirage hath become a pond, And the thirsty land fountains of waters, In the habitation of dragons, Its place of couching down, a court for reed and rush.
- 35:8 And a highway hath been there, and a way, And the 'way of holiness' is called to it, Not pass over it doth the unclean, And He Himself [is] by them, Whoso is going in the way -- even fools err not.
- 35:9 No lion is there, yea, a destructive beast Ascendeth it not, it is not found there, And walked have the redeemed,
- Isaiah 35:10 And the ransomed of YHWH return, And have entered Zion with singing. And joy age-during on their head, Joy and gladness they attain, And fled away have sorrow and sighing!

- 36:12 And Rabshakeh saith, 'Unto thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men -- those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water with you?'
- 36:13 And Rabshakeh standeth and calleth with a great voice [in] Jewish, and saith, 'Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Asshur:

- 36:15 and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto YHWH, saying, YHWH doth certainly deliver us, this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.

- 36:17 till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards;
- 36:18 lest Hezekiah doth persuade you, saying, YHWH doth deliver us. 'Have the gods of the nations delivered each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?
- 36:19 Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where the gods of Sepharvaim, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand?

- 36:21 And they keep silent, and have not answered him a word, for a command of the king is, saying, 'Do not answer him.'
- 36:22 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of Rabshakeh.

- 37:17 Incline, O YHWH, Thine ear, and hear; open, O YHWH, Thine eyes and see; and hear Thou all the words of Sennacherib that he hath sent to reproach the living God.

- 37:23 Whom hast thou reproached and reviled? And against whom lifted up the voice? Yea, thou dost lift up on high thine eyes Against the Holy One of Israel.
- 37:24 By the hand of thy servants Thou hast reviled the Lord, and sayest: In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to a high place of hills, The sides of Lebanon, And I cut down the height of its cedars, The choice of its firs, And I enter the high place of its extremity, The forest of its Carmel.
- 37:25 I -- I have dug and drunk waters, And I dry up with the sole of my steps All floods of a bulwark.
- 37:26 Hast thou not heard from afar? -- it I did, From days of old -- that I formed it. Now, I have brought it in, And it is to make desolate, Ruinous heaps -- fenced cities,
- 37:27 And their inhabitants are feeble-handed, They were broken down, and are dried up. They have been the herb of the field, And the greenness of the tender grass, Grass of the roofs, And blasted corn, before it hath risen up.
- 37:28 And thy sitting down, and thy going out, And thy coming in, I have known, And thy anger towards Me.
- 37:29 Because of thy anger towards Me, And thy noise -- it came up into Mine ears, I have put My hook in thy nose, And My bridle in thy lips, And I have caused thee to turn back In the way in which thou camest.

- 37:32 For from Jerusalem goeth forth a remnant, And an escape from mount Zion, The zeal of YHWH of Hosts doth this.
- 37:33 Therefore, thus said YHWH, Concerning the king of Asshur: He doth not come in unto this city, Nor doth he shoot there an arrow, Nor doth he come before it [with] shield, Nor doth he pour out against it a mount.
- 37:34 In the way that he came, in it he turneth back, And unto this city he doth not come in, An affirmation of YHWH,
- 37:35 And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.'
