Isaiah 54

1 Shout for joy O barren [woman] [who] not she has given birth break forth a shout of joy and cry aloud O [one who] not she has been in labor for [are] many [the] children of a desolate [woman] more than [the] children of a married [woman] he says Yahweh.

“Shout for joy, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth in song and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,”

2 Enlarge - [the] place of tent your and [the] tent curtains of dwellings your may people stretch out may not you refrain make long tent cords your and tent pegs your make strong.

“Enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes in deep.

3 For right and left you will spread out and offspring your nations he will take possession of and cities desolated they will cause to be inhabited.

For you will spread out to the right and left; your descendants will dispossess the nations and inhabit the desolate cities.

4 May not you be afraid for not you will be put to shame and may not you be ashamed for not you will display shame for [the] shame of youth your you will forget and [the] reproach of widowhood your not you will remember again.

Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame; do not be intimidated, for you will not be humiliated. For you will forget the shame of your youth and will remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.

5 That husband your [is] maker your [is] Yahweh of hosts name his and [is] redeemer your [the] holy [one] of Israel [the] God of all the earth he is called.

For your husband is your Maker— the LORD of Hosts is His name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; He is called the God of all the earth.

6 For like a wife abandoned and grieved of spirit he will call you Yahweh and a wife of youth if she is rejected he says God your.

For the LORD has called you back, like a wife deserted and wounded in spirit, like the rejected wife of one’s youth,” says your God.

7 For a moment small I abandoned you and in compassion great I will gather you.

“For a brief moment I forsook you, but with great compassion I will bring you back.

8 In a flood of wrath I hid face my a moment from you and in covenant loyalty of perpetuity I will have compassion on you he says redeemer your Yahweh.

In a surge of anger I hid My face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.

9 For [is] [the] water of Noah this to me which I swore from passing [the] waters of Noah again over the earth so I swear from being angry towards you and from rebuking you.

“For to Me this is like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth. So I have sworn that I will not be angry with you or rebuke you.

10 That the mountains they will be removed and the hills they will shake and covenant loyalty my from with you not it will be removed and [the] covenant of peace my not it will shake he says [one who] has compassion on you Yahweh.

Though the mountains may be removed and the hills may be shaken, My loving devotion will not depart from you, and My covenant of peace will not be broken,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

11 O afflicted [one] it is storm tossed not it has been comforted here! I [am] about to set in antimony stones your and I will refound you with sapphires.

“O afflicted city, lashed by storms, without solace, surely I will set your stones in antimony and lay your foundations with sapphires.

12 And I will make ruby battlements your and gates your stones of beryl and all border your stones of delight.

I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.

13 And all children your [will be] taught of Yahweh and [will be] great [the] peace of children your.

Then all your sons will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their prosperity.

14 In righteousness you will be established be distant from oppression for not you will be afraid and from terror for not it will draw near to you.

In righteousness you will be established, far from oppression, for you will have no fear. Terror will be far removed, for it will not come near you.

15 There! certainly anyone will quarrel not from me whoever [is] quarreling with you on you he will fall.

If anyone attacks you, it is not from Me; whoever assails you will fall before you.

16 (Here! *Q(K)*) I I created a craftsman [who] blows on a fire of charcoal and [who] produces a weapon for work its and I I created a destroyer to ruin.

Behold, I have created the craftsman who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its task; and I have created the destroyer to wreak havoc.

17 Any weapon [which] it will be formed on you not it will succeed and every tongue [which] it will arise with you to judgment you will condemn as guilty this [is] [the] inheritance of [the] servants of Yahweh and righteousness their from with me [the] utterance of Yahweh.

No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,”
