Isaiah 65 (kjv)

65

I am soughtH1875 of them that askedH7592 notH3808 for me; I am foundH4672 of them that soughtH1245 me notH3808: I saidH559, Behold me, behold me, unto a nationH1471 that was not calledH7121 by my nameH8034.

2I have spread outH6566 my handsH3027 all the dayH3117 unto a rebelliousH5637 peopleH5971, which walkethH1980 in a wayH1870 that was not goodH2896, afterH310 their own thoughtsH4284;3A peopleH5971 that provoketh me to angerH3707 continuallyH8548 to my faceH6440; that sacrificethH2076 in gardensH1593, and burneth incenseH6999 upon altars of brickH3843;4Which remainH3427 among the gravesH6913, and lodgeH3885 in the monumentsH5341, which eatH398 swine'sH2386 fleshH1320, and brothH4839 H6564 of abominableH6292 things is in their vesselsH3627;5Which sayH559, StandH7126 by thyself, come not nearH5066 to me; for I am holierH6942 than thou. These are a smokeH6227 in my noseH639, a fireH784 that burnethH3344 all the dayH3117.6Behold, it is writtenH3789 beforeH6440 me: I will not keep silenceH2814, but will recompenseH7999, even recompenseH7999 into their bosomH2436,7Your iniquitiesH5771, and the iniquitiesH5771 of your fathersH1 togetherH3162, saithH559 the LORDH3068, which have burned incenseH6999 upon the mountainsH2022, and blasphemedH2778 me upon the hillsH1389: therefore will I measureH4058 their formerH7223 workH6468 into their bosomH2436.

8Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, As the new wineH8492 is foundH4672 in the clusterH811, and one saithH559, DestroyH7843 it not; for a blessingH1293 is in it: so will I doH6213 for my servantsH5650' sakes, that I may not destroyH7843 them all.9And I will bring forthH3318 a seedH2233 out of JacobH3290, and out of JudahH3063 an inheritorH3423 of my mountainsH2022: and mine electH972 shall inheritH3423 it, and my servantsH5650 shall dwellH7931 there.10And SharonH8289 shall be a foldH5116 of flocksH6629, and the valleyH6010 of AchorH5911 a place for the herdsH1241 to lie down inH7258, for my peopleH5971 that have soughtH1875 me.

11But ye are they that forsakeH5800 the LORDH3068, that forgetH7913 my holyH6944 mountainH2022, that prepareH6186 a tableH7979 for that troopH1409 H1408, and that furnishH4390 the drink offeringH4469 unto that numberH4507.12Therefore will I numberH4487 you to the swordH2719, and ye shall all bow downH3766 to the slaughterH2874: because when I calledH7121, ye did not answerH6030; when I spakeH1696, ye did not hearH8085; but didH6213 evilH7451 before mine eyesH5869, and did chooseH977 that wherein I delightedH2654 not.13Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069, Behold, my servantsH5650 shall eatH398, but ye shall be hungryH7456: behold, my servantsH5650 shall drinkH8354, but ye shall be thirstyH6770: behold, my servantsH5650 shall rejoiceH8055, but ye shall be ashamedH954:14Behold, my servantsH5650 shall singH7442 for joyH2898 of heartH3820, but ye shall cryH6817 for sorrowH3511 of heartH3820, and shall howlH3213 for vexationH7667 of spiritH7307.15And ye shall leaveH3240 your nameH8034 for a curseH7621 unto my chosenH972: for the LordH136 GODH3069 shall slayH4191 thee, and callH7121 his servantsH5650 by anotherH312 nameH8034:16That he who blessethH1288 himself in the earthH776 shall blessH1288 himself in the GodH430 of truthH543; and he that swearethH7650 in the earthH776 shall swearH7650 by the GodH430 of truthH543; because the formerH7223 troublesH6869 are forgottenH7911, and because they are hidH5641 from mine eyesH5869.

17For, behold, I createH1254 newH2319 heavensH8064 and a newH2319 earthH776: and the formerH7223 shall not be rememberedH2142, nor comeH5927 into mindH3820.18But be ye gladH7797 and rejoiceH1523 for everH5703 in that which I createH1254: for, behold, I createH1254 JerusalemH3389 a rejoicingH1525, and her peopleH5971 a joyH4885.19And I will rejoiceH1523 in JerusalemH3389, and joyH7797 in my peopleH5971: and the voiceH6963 of weepingH1065 shall be no more heardH8085 in her, nor the voiceH6963 of cryingH2201.20There shall be no more thence an infantH5764 of daysH3117, nor an old manH2205 that hath not filledH4390 his daysH3117: for the childH5288 shall dieH4191 an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 oldH1121; but the sinnerH2398 being an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 oldH1121 shall be accursedH7043.21And they shall buildH1129 housesH1004, and inhabitH3427 them; and they shall plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 of them.22They shall not buildH1129, and anotherH312 inhabitH3427; they shall not plantH5193, and anotherH312 eatH398: for as the daysH3117 of a treeH6086 are the daysH3117 of my peopleH5971, and mine electH972 shall long enjoyH1086 the workH4639 of their handsH3027.23They shall not labourH3021 in vainH7385, nor bring forthH3205 for troubleH928; for they are the seedH2233 of the blessedH1288 of the LORDH3068, and their offspringH6631 with them.24And it shall come to pass, that before they callH7121, I will answerH6030; and while they are yet speakingH1696, I will hearH8085.25The wolfH2061 and the lambH2924 shall feedH7462 togetherH259, and the lionH738 shall eatH398 strawH8401 like the bullockH1241: and dustH6083 shall be the serpent'sH5175 meatH3899. They shall not hurtH7489 nor destroyH7843 in all my holyH6944 mountainH2022, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
