Isaiah 28

KJV

1  Woe1945 to the crown5850 of pride,1348 to the drunkards7910 of Ephraim,669 whose glorious6643 beauty8597 is a fading5034 flower,6731 which834 are on5921 the head7218 of the fat8081 valleys1516 of them that are overcome1986 with wine!3196

2  Behold,2009 the Lord136 hath a mighty2389 and strong one,533 which as a tempest2230 of hail1259 and a destroying6986 storm,8178 as a flood2230 of mighty3524 waters4325 overflowing,7857 shall cast down5117 to the earth776 with the hand.3027

3  The crown5850 of pride,1348 the drunkards7910 of Ephraim,669 shall be trodden7429 under feet:7272

4  And the glorious6643 beauty,8597 which834 is on5921 the head7218 of the fat8081 valley,1516 shall be1961 a fading5034 flower,6733 and as the hasty fruit1061 before2962 the summer;7019 which834 when he that looketh7200 upon it seeth,7200 while it is yet5750 in his hand3709 he eateth it up.1104

5  In that1931 day3117 shall the LORD3068 of hosts6635 be1961 for a crown5850 of glory,6643 and for a diadem6843 of beauty,8597 unto the residue7605 of his people,5971

6  And for a spirit7307 of judgment4941 to him that sitteth3427 in5921 judgment,4941 and for strength1369 to them that turn7725 the battle4421 to the gate.8179

7  But they428 also1571 have erred7686 through wine,3196 and through strong drink7941 are out of the way;8582 the priest3548 and the prophet5030 have erred7686 through strong drink,7941 they are swallowed up1104 of4480 wine,3196 they are out of the way8582 through4480 strong drink;7941 they err7686 in vision,7203 they stumble6328 in judgment.6417

8  For3588 all3605 tables7979 are full4390 of vomit6892 and filthiness,6675 so that there is no1097 place4725 clean.

853 Whom4310 shall he teach3384 knowledge?1844 and whom4310 shall he make to understand995 doctrine?8052 them that are weaned1580 from the milk,4480 2461 and drawn6267 from the breasts.4480 7699

10  For3588 precept6673 must be upon precept,6673 precept6673 upon precept;6673 line6957 upon line,6957 line6957 upon line;6957 here8033 a little,2191 and there8033 a little:2191

11  For3588 with stammering3934 lips8193 and another312 tongue3956 will he speak1696 to413 this2088 people.5971

12  To413 whom834 he said,559 This2063 is the rest4496 wherewith ye may cause the weary5889 to rest;5117 and this2063 is the refreshing:4774 yet they would14 not3808 hear.8085

13  But the word1697 of the LORD3068 was1961 unto them precept6673 upon precept,6673 precept6673 upon precept;6673 line6957 upon line,6957 line6957 upon line;6957 here8033 a little,2191 and there8033 a little;2191 that4616 they might go,1980 and fall3782 backward,268 and be broken,7665 and snared,3369 and taken.3920

14  Wherefore3651 hear8085 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 ye scornful3944 men,376 that rule4910 this2088 people5971 which834 is in Jerusalem.3389

15  Because3588 ye have said,559 We have made3772 a covenant1285 with854 death,4194 and with5973 hell7585 are we at6213 agreement;2374 when3588 the overflowing7857 scourge7752 shall pass through,5674 it shall not3808 come935 unto us: for3588 we have made7760 lies3577 our refuge,4268 and under falsehood8267 have we hid ourselves:5641

16  Therefore3651 thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD,3069 Behold,2009 I lay3245 in Zion6726 for a foundation3245 a stone,68 a tried976 stone,68 a precious3368 corner6438 stone, a sure3245 foundation:4143 he that believeth539 shall not3808 make haste.2363

17  Judgment4941 also will I lay7760 to the line,6957 and righteousness6666 to the plummet:4949 and the hail1259 shall sweep away3261 the refuge4268 of lies,3577 and the waters4325 shall overflow7857 the hiding place.5643

18  And your covenant1285 with854 death4194 shall be disannulled,3722 and your agreement2380 with854 hell7585 shall not3808 stand;6965 when3588 the overflowing7857 scourge7752 shall pass through,5674 then ye shall be1961 trodden down4823 by it.

19  From the time4480 1767 that it goeth forth5674 it shall take3947 you: for3588 morning1242 by morning1242 shall it pass over,5674 by day3117 and by night:3915 and it shall be1961 a vexation2113 only7535 to understand995 the report.8052

20  For3588 the bed4702 is shorter7114 than that a man can stretch himself4480 8311 on it: and the covering4541 narrower6887 than that he can wrap himself3664 in it.

21  For3588 the LORD3068 shall rise up6965 as in mount2022 Perazim,6556 he shall be wroth7264 as in the valley6010 of Gibeon,1391 that he may do6213 his work,4639 his strange2114 work;4639 and bring to pass5647 his act,5656 his strange5237 act.5656

22  Now6258 therefore be ye not mockers,3887 408 lest6435 your bands4147 be made strong:2388 for3588 I have heard8085 from4480 854 the Lord136 GOD3069 of hosts6635 a consumption,3617 even determined2782 upon5921 the whole3605 earth.776

23  Give ye ear,238 and hear8085 my voice;6963 hearken,7181 and hear8085 my speech.565

24  Doth the plowman2790 plow2790 all3605 day3117 to sow?2232 doth he open6605 and break the clods7702 of his ground?127

25  When518 he hath made plain7737 the face6440 thereof, doth he not3808 cast abroad6327 the fitches,7100 and scatter2236 the cummin,3646 and cast7760 in the principal7795 wheat2406 and the appointed5567 barley8184 and the rye3698 in their place?1367

26  For his God430 doth instruct3256 him to discretion,4941 and doth teach3384 him.

27  For3588 the fitches7100 are not3808 threshed1758 with a threshing instrument,2742 neither is a cart5699 wheel212 turned5437 about upon5921 the cummin;3646 but3588 the fitches7100 are beaten out2251 with a staff,4294 and the cummin3646 with a rod.7626

28  Bread3899 corn is bruised;1854 because3588 he will not3808 ever5331 be threshing1758 it, nor break2000 it with the wheel1536 of his cart,5699 nor3808 bruise1854 it with his horsemen.6571

29  This2063 also1571 cometh forth3318 from4480 5973 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 which is wonderful6381 in counsel,6098 and excellent1431 in working.8454

1 οὐαὶ τῷ στεφάνῳ τῆς ὕβρεως οἱ μισθωτοὶ Εφραιμ τὸ ἄνθος τὸ ἐκπεσὸν ἐκ τῆς δόξης ἐπὶ τῆς κορυφῆς τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ παχέος οἱ μεθύοντες ἄνευ οἴνου

2 ἰδοὺ ἰσχυρὸν καὶ σκληρὸν ὁ θυμὸς κυρίου ὡς χάλαζα καταφερομένη οὐκ ἔχουσα σκέπην βίᾳ καταφερομένη ὡς ὕδατος πολὺ πλῆθος σῦρον χώραν τῇ γῇ ποιήσει ἀνάπαυσιν ταῖς χερσίν

3 καὶ τοῖς ποσὶν καταπατηθήσεται ὁ στέφανος τῆς ὕβρεως οἱ μισθωτοὶ τοῦ Εφραιμ

4 καὶ ἔσται τὸ ἄνθος τὸ ἐκπεσὸν τῆς ἐλπίδος τῆς δόξης ἐπ᾽ ἄκρου τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ ὑψηλοῦ ὡς πρόδρομος σύκου ὁ ἰδὼν αὐτὸ πρὶν ἢ εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ λαβεῖν θελήσει αὐτὸ καταπιεῖν

5 τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσται κύριος σαβαωθ ὁ στέφανος τῆς ἐλπίδος ὁ πλακεὶς τῆς δόξης τῷ καταλειφθέντι μου λαῷ

6 καταλειφθήσονται ἐπὶ πνεύματι κρίσεως ἐπὶ κρίσιν καὶ ἰσχὺν κωλύων ἀνελεῖν

7 οὗτοι γὰρ οἴνῳ πεπλανημένοι εἰσίν ἐπλανήθησαν διὰ τὸ σικερα ἱερεὺς καὶ προφήτης ἐξέστησαν διὰ τὸν οἶνον ἐσείσθησαν ἀπὸ τῆς μέθης τοῦ σικερα ἐπλανήθησαν τοῦτ᾽ ἔστι φάσμα

8 ἀρὰ ἔδεται ταύτην τὴν βουλήν αὕτη γὰρ ἡ βουλὴ ἕνεκεν πλεονεξίας

9 τίνι ἀνηγγείλαμεν κακὰ καὶ τίνι ἀνηγγείλαμεν ἀγγελίαν οἱ ἀπογεγαλακτισμένοι ἀπὸ γάλακτος οἱ ἀπεσπασμένοι ἀπὸ μαστοῦ

10 θλῖψιν ἐπὶ θλῖψιν προσδέχου ἐλπίδα ἐπ᾽ ἐλπίδι ἔτι μικρὸν ἔτι μικρὸν

11 διὰ φαυλισμὸν χειλέων διὰ γλώσσης ἑτέρας ὅτι λαλήσουσιν τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ

12 λέγοντες αὐτῷ τοῦτο τὸ ἀνάπαυμα τῷ πεινῶντι καὶ τοῦτο τὸ σύντριμμα καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησαν ἀκούειν

13 καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς τὸ λόγιον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ θλῖψις ἐπὶ θλῖψιν ἐλπὶς ἐπ᾽ ἐλπίδι ἔτι μικρὸν ἔτι μικρόν ἵνα πορευθῶσιν καὶ πέσωσιν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω καὶ κινδυνεύσουσιν καὶ συντριβήσονται καὶ ἁλώσονται

14 διὰ τοῦτο ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου ἄνδρες τεθλιμμένοι καὶ ἄρχοντες τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου τοῦ ἐν Ιερουσαλημ

15 ὅτι εἴπατε ἐποιήσαμεν διαθήκην μετὰ τοῦ ᾅδου καὶ μετὰ τοῦ θανάτου συνθήκας καταιγὶς φερομένη ἐὰν παρέλθῃ οὐ μὴ ἔλθῃ ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς ἐθήκαμεν ψεῦδος τὴν ἐλπίδα ἡμῶν καὶ τῷ ψεύδει σκεπασθησόμεθα

16 διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως λέγει κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐμβαλῶ εἰς τὰ θεμέλια Σιων λίθον πολυτελῆ ἐκλεκτὸν ἀκρογωνιαῖον ἔντιμον εἰς τὰ θεμέλια αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ πιστεύων ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ οὐ μὴ καταισχυνθῇ

17 καὶ θήσω κρίσιν εἰς ἐλπίδα ἡ δὲ ἐλεημοσύνη μου εἰς σταθμούς καὶ οἱ πεποιθότες μάτην ψεύδει ὅτι οὐ μὴ παρέλθῃ ὑμᾶς καταιγίς

18 μὴ καὶ ἀφέλῃ ὑμῶν τὴν διαθήκην τοῦ θανάτου καὶ ἡ ἐλπὶς ὑμῶν ἡ πρὸς τὸν ᾅδην οὐ μὴ ἐμμείνῃ καταιγὶς φερομένη ἐὰν ἐπέλθῃ ἔσεσθε αὐτῇ εἰς καταπάτημα

19 ὅταν παρέλθῃ λήμψεται ὑμᾶς πρωὶ πρωὶ παρελεύσεται ἡμέρας καὶ ἐν νυκτὶ ἔσται ἐλπὶς πονηρά μάθετε ἀκούειν

20 στενοχωρούμενοι οὐ δυνάμεθα μάχεσθαι αὐτοὶ δὲ ἀσθενοῦμεν τοῦ ἡμᾶς συναχθῆναι

21 ὥσπερ ὄρος ἀσεβῶν ἀναστήσεται καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ φάραγγι Γαβαων μετὰ θυμοῦ ποιήσει τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ πικρίας ἔργον ὁ δὲ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ ἀλλοτρίως χρήσεται καὶ ἡ πικρία αὐτοῦ ἀλλοτρία

22 καὶ ὑμεῖς μὴ εὐφρανθείητε μηδὲ ἰσχυσάτωσαν ὑμῶν οἱ δεσμοί διότι συντετελεσμένα καὶ συντετμημένα πράγματα ἤκουσα παρὰ κυρίου σαβαωθ ἃ ποιήσει ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν

23 ἐνωτίζεσθε καὶ ἀκούετε τῆς φωνῆς μου προσέχετε καὶ ἀκούετε τοὺς λόγους μου

24 μὴ ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν μέλλει ὁ ἀροτριῶν ἀροτριᾶν ἢ σπόρον προετοιμάσει πρὶν ἐργάσασθαι τὴν γῆν

25 οὐχ ὅταν ὁμαλίσῃ αὐτῆς τὸ πρόσωπον τότε σπείρει μικρὸν μελάνθιον καὶ κύμινον καὶ πάλιν σπείρει πυρὸν καὶ κριθὴν καὶ ζέαν ἐν τοῖς ὁρίοις σου

26 καὶ παιδευθήσῃ κρίματι θεοῦ σου καὶ εὐφρανθήσῃ

27 οὐ γὰρ μετὰ σκληρότητος καθαίρεται τὸ μελάνθιον οὐδὲ τροχὸς ἁμάξης περιάξει ἐπὶ τὸ κύμινον ἀλλὰ ῥάβδῳ ἐκτινάσσεται τὸ μελάνθιον τὸ δὲ κύμινον

28 μετὰ ἄρτου βρωθήσεται οὐ γὰρ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐγὼ ὑμῖν ὀργισθήσομαι οὐδὲ φωνὴ τῆς πικρίας μου καταπατήσει ὑμᾶς

29 καὶ ταῦτα παρὰ κυρίου σαβαωθ ἐξῆλθεν τὰ τέρατα βουλεύσασθε ὑψώσατε ματαίαν παράκλησιν

Vul

1 [Væ coronæ superbiæ, ebriis Ephraim,
et flori decidenti, gloriæ exsultationis ejus,
qui erant in vertice vallis pinguissimæ,
errantes a vino.

2 Ecce validus et fortis Dominus
sicut impetus grandinis; turbo confringens,
sicut impetus aquarum multarum inundantium
et emissarum super terram spatiosam.

3 Pedibus conculcabitur
corona superbiæ ebriorum Ephraim.

4 Et erit flos decidens gloriæ exsultationis ejus,
qui est super verticem vallis pinguium,
quasi temporaneum ante maturitatem autumni,
quod, cum aspexerit videns,
statim ut manu tenuerit, devorabit illud.

5 In die illa erit Dominus exercituum corona gloriæ,
et sertum exsultationis residuo populi sui;

6 et spiritus judicii sedenti super judicium,
et fortitudo revertentibus de bello ad portam.]

7 [Verum hi quoque præ vino nescierunt, et præ ebrietate erraverunt;
sacerdos et propheta nescierunt præ ebrietate;
absorpti sunt a vino, erraverunt in ebrietate,
nescierunt videntem, ignoraverunt judicium.

8 Omnes enim mensæ repletæ sunt vomitu sordiumque,
ita ut non esset ultra locus.

9 Quem docebit scientiam?
et quem intelligere faciet auditum?
Ablactatos a lacte,
avulsos ab uberibus.

10 Quia manda, remanda; manda, remanda;
exspecta, reexspecta; exspecta, reexspecta;
modicum ibi, modicum ibi.

11 In loquela enim labii,
et lingua altera
loquetur ad populum istum.

12 Cui dixit: Hæc est requies mea,
reficite lassum;
et hoc est meum refrigerium:
et noluerunt audire.

13 Et erit eis verbum Domini:
Manda, remanda; manda, remanda;
exspecta, reexspecta; exspecta, reexspecta;
modicum ibi, modicum ibi;
ut vadant, et cadant retrorsum,
et conterantur, et illaqueentur, et capiantur.

14 Propter hoc audite verbum Domini, viri illusores,
qui dominamini super populum meum, qui est in Jerusalem.

15 Dixistis enim: Percussimus fœdus cum morte,
et cum inferno fecimus pactum:
flagellum inundans cum transierit, non veniet super nos
quia posuimus mendacium spem nostram,
et mendacio protecti sumus.

16 Idcirco hæc dicit Dominus Deus:
Ecce ego mittam in fundamentis Sion lapidem,
lapidem probatum,
angularem, pretiosum, in fundamento fundatum;
qui crediderit, non festinet.

17 Et ponam in pondere judicium,
et justitiam in mensura;
et subvertet grando spem mendacii,
et protectionem aquæ inundabunt.

18 Et delebitur fœdus vestrum cum morte,
et pactum vestrum cum inferno non stabit:
flagellum inundans cum transierit, eritis ei in conculcationem.

19 Quandocumque pertransierit, tollet vos,
quoniam in mane diluculo pertransibit in die et in nocte;
et tantummodo sola vexatio intellectum dabit auditui.

20 Coangustatum est enim stratum, ita ut alter decidat;
et pallium breve utrumque operire non potest.

21 Sicut enim in monte divisionum stabit Dominus;
sicut in valle quæ est in Gabaon irascetur,
ut faciat opus suum, alienum opus ejus:
ut operetur opus suum, peregrinum est opus ejus ab eo.

22 Et nunc nolite illudere,
ne forte constringantur vincula vestra;
consummationem enim et abbreviationem audivi
a Domino Deo exercituum, super universam terram.]

23 [Auribus percipite, et audite vocem meam:
attendite, et audite eloquium meum.

24 Numquid tota die arabit arans ut serat?
proscindet et sarriet humum suam?

25 Nonne cum adæquaverit faciem ejus,
seret gith et cyminum sparget?
et ponet triticum per ordinem, et hordeum,
et milium, et viciam in finibus suis?

26 Et erudiet illum in judicio;
Deus suus docebit illum.

27 Non enim in serris triturabitur gith,
nec rota plaustri super cyminum circuibit;
sed in virga excutietur gith,
et cyminum in baculo.

28 Panis autem comminuetur;
verum non in perpetuum triturans triturabit illum,
neque vexabit eum rota plaustri,
neque ungulis suis comminuet eum.

29 Et hoc a Domino Deo exercituum exivit,
ut mirabile faceret consilium, et magnificaret justitiam.]
