< Isaiah 65 >
1 Those who before were not asking for me have sought me. Those who have not sought me have found me. I said, “Behold, it is I! Behold, it is I!” to a nation which was not invoking my name.
I let myself be consulted by [those who] not they had asked I let myself be found by [those who] not they had sought me I said here [am] I here [am] I to a nation [which] not it had been called by name my.
2 I have extended my hands all day long to an unbelieving people, who advance along a way that is not good, following their own thoughts,
I spread out hands my all the day to a people rebellious who walk the way not good after own thoughts their.
3 to a people who provoke me to anger before my face continually, who immolate in the gardens, and who sacrifice upon the bricks.
The people who provoke to anger me on face my continually [who] sacrifice in gardens and [who] make smoke on the bricks.
4 They live in sepulchers, and they sleep in the shrines of idols. They eat the flesh of swine, and a profane elixir is in their vessels.
Who sit among the graves and in secret places they spend [the] night who eat [the] flesh of the pig (and broth of *Q(K)*) unclean meat [is] vessels their.
5 They say: “Depart from me! Do not approach me, for you are unclean!” Such as these will be the smoke in my fury, a fire burning all day long.
Who say draw near to yourself may not you draw near to me for I am set apart from you these [people] [are] smoke in nose my a fire [which] burns all the day.
6 Behold, it has been written in my sight; I will not be silent. Instead, I will render retribution into their sinews.
Here! [it is] written before me not I will be silent that except I will repay and I will repay on bosom their.
7 Your iniquities are joined with the iniquities of your fathers, says the Lord. For they have sacrificed upon the mountains, and they have offended me upon the hills. And so, I will measure back to them, from their first work, into their sinews.
Iniquities your and [the] iniquities of ancestors your together he says Yahweh who they made smoke on the mountains and on the hills they taunted me and I will measure work their first (into *Q(K)*) bosom their.
8 Thus says the Lord: In the same way as it is said about a grain found in a cluster, “Do not destroy it, because it is a blessing,” so will I act for the sake of my servants, so that I may not destroy the whole.
Thus - he says Yahweh just as it is found the new wine in the cluster of grapes and someone says may not you destroy it for blessing [is] in it so I will act for [the] sake of servants my to not to destroy everyone.
9 And I will lead forth an offspring from Jacob, and a possessor of my mountains from Judah. And my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall live there.
And I will bring out from Jacob offspring and from Judah [the] possessor of mountains my and they will take possession of it chosen ones my and servants my they will dwell there.
10 And the open plains will become sheepfolds for the flocks, and the valley of Achor will become a domicile for the herds, for my people who have sought me.
And it will become Sharon a pasture of sheep and [the] valley of Achor a resting place of cattle for people my who they have sought me.
11 And you who have forsaken the Lord, who have forgotten my holy mountain, who set a table for Fortune, and who offer libations concerning her:
And you [who] forsake Yahweh forgetting [the] mountain of holiness my who arrange for Fortune a table and who fill for Destiny mixed wine.
12 I will number you with the sword, and you will all fall by slaughter. For I called and you did not respond; I spoke, and you did not listen. And you did what is evil in my eyes; and what I did not will, you have chosen.
And I will appoint you to the sword and all of you to the slaughter you will bow down because I called and not you answered I spoke and not you listened and you did the evil in view my and [that] which not I desired you chose.
13 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, my servants will eat, and you will be hungry. Behold, my servants will drink, and you will be thirsty.
Therefore thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh here! servants my - they will eat and you you will be hungry here! servants my they will drink and you you will be thirsty here! servants my they will rejoice and you you will be ashamed.
14 Behold, my servants will rejoice, and you will be confounded. Behold, my servants will give praise in exultation of heart, and you will cry out in sorrow of heart, and you will wail in contrition of spirit.
Here! servants my they will shout for joy from goodness of heart and you you will cry out from pain of heart and from brokenness of spirit you will wail.
15 And you will leave behind your name to my elect as a curse. And the Lord God will put you to death, and he will call his servants by another name.
And you will leave name your to a curse to chosen ones my and he will put to death you [the] Lord Yahweh and servants his he will call a name another.
16 By that name, whoever is blessed on earth, will be blessed in God. Amen! And whoever swears on earth, will swear by God. Amen! For the past anguishes have been delivered into oblivion, and they have been hidden from my eyes.
That the [one who] blesses himself in the land he will bless himself by [the] God of surely and the [one who] swears an oath in the land he will swear an oath by [the] God of surely that they will be forgotten the troubles former and for they will be hidden from eyes my.
17 For behold, I create the new heavens and the new earth. And the former things will not be in memory and will not enter into the heart.
For here I [am] about to create heavens new and an earth new and not they will be remembered the former [things] and not they will come up on a heart.
18 But you will be glad and exult, even forever, in these things that I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem as an exultation, and its people as a joy.
That except rejoice and be glad until perpetuity [that] which I [am] about to create for here I [am] about to create Jerusalem gladness and people its rejoicing.
19 And I will exult in Jerusalem, and I will rejoice in my people. And neither a voice of weeping, nor a voice of outcry, will be heard in her anymore.
And I will be glad in Jerusalem and I will rejoice in people my and not it will be heard in it again a sound of weeping and a sound of a cry of distress.
20 There will no longer be an infant of only a few days there, nor an elder who does not complete his days. For a mere child dies at a hundred years of age, and a sinner of a hundred years will be accursed.
Not it will be from there again a sucking child of days and an old [person] who not he will complete days his for the young man a son of one hundred year[s] he will die and the [one who] misses a son of one hundred year[s] he will be cursed.
21 And they will build houses, and will inhabit them. And they will plant vineyards, and will eat their fruits.
And they will build houses and they will dwell [in them] and they will plant vineyards and they will eat fruit their.
22 They will not build, so that another may inhabit. They will not plant, so that another may eat. For according to the days of a tree, so will be the days of my people. And the works of their hands will be long-standing.
Not they will build and another he will dwell not they will plant and another he will eat for [will be] like [the] days of tree [the] days of people my and [the] work of hands their they will use to [the] full chosen ones my.
23 My elect will not labor in vain, and they will not bring forth in disorder. For they are the offspring of the blessed of the Lord, and their posterity are with them.
Not they will labor to emptiness and not they will father children for sudden terror for [will be] [the] offspring of [those] blessed of Yahweh they and descendants their [will be] with them.
24 And this shall be: before they call out, I will perceive; while they are still speaking, I will hear.
And it will be before they will call and I I will answer still they [will be] speaking and I I will hear.
25 The wolf and the lamb will pasture together. The lion and the ox will eat hay. And dust will be the food of the serpent. They will not harm, and they will not kill, on all my holy mountain, says the Lord.
Wolf and lamb they will graze as one and [the] lion like the ox it will eat straw and a snake [will be] dust food its not they will do harm and not they will destroy in all [the] mountain of holiness my he says Yahweh.
