Isaiah 66
1 Thus he says Yahweh the heavens [are] throne my and the earth [is] [the] footstool of feet my where? this [is the] house which you will build for me and where? this [is the] place rest my.
This is what the LORD says: “Heaven is My throne, and earth is My footstool. What kind of house will you build for Me? Or where will My place of repose be?
2 And all these [things] hand my it made and they were all these [things] [the] utterance of Yahweh and to this one I will look to an afflicted [person] and a [person] stricken of spirit and a [person] trembling on word my.
Has not My hand made all these things? And so they came into being,” declares the LORD. “This is the one I will esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, who trembles at My word.
3 [one who] slaughters Ox [one who] strikes down a person [one who] sacrifices lamb [one who] breaks [the] neck of a dog [one who] offers up a grain offering [the] blood of a pig [one who] offers as a memorial frankincense [one who] blesses wickedness also they they have chosen own ways their and detestable things their self their it has delighted.
Whoever slaughters an ox is like one who slays a man; whoever sacrifices a lamb is like one who breaks a dog’s neck; whoever presents a grain offering is like one who offers pig’s blood; whoever offers frankincense is like one who blesses an idol. Indeed, they have chosen their own ways and delighted in their abominations.
4 Also I I will choose punishments their and fears their I will bring to them because I called and there not [was one who] answered I spoke and not they listened and they did the evil in view my and [that] which not I desired they chose.
So I will choose their punishment and I will bring terror upon them, because I called and no one answered, I spoke and no one listened. But they did evil in My sight and chose that in which I did not delight.”
5 Hear [the] word of Yahweh O [people] trembling to word his they have said relatives your [who] hate you [who] exclude you for [the] sake of name my will be honored Yahweh so we may look on joy your and they they will be ashamed.
You who tremble at His word, hear the word of the LORD: “Your brothers who hate you and exclude you because of My name have said, ‘Let the LORD be glorified that we may see your joy!’ But they will be put to shame.”
6 A sound of an uproar from [the] city a sound from [the] temple [the] sound of Yahweh repaying recompense to enemies his.
Hear the uproar from the city; listen to the voice from the temple! It is the voice of the LORD, repaying His enemies what they deserve!
7 Before she was in labor she gave birth before it came labor-pain[s] to her and she delivered a male.
“Before she was in labor, she gave birth; before she was in pain, she delivered a boy.
8 Who? has he heard like this who? has he seen like these ¿ will it be brought forth a land in a day one or? will it be born a nation a time one for she was in labor also she gave birth to Zion children her.
Who has heard of such as this? Who has seen such things? Can a country be born in a day or a nation be delivered in an instant? Yet as soon as Zion was in labor, she gave birth to her children.
9 ¿ I do I bring to [the] birth and not I cause to bring forth he says Yahweh or? [am] I the [one who] causes to bring forth and do I restrain? he says God your.
Shall I bring a baby to the point of birth and not deliver it?” says the LORD. “Or will I who deliver close the womb?” says your God.
10 Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad in it O all [those who] love it exult with it exultation O all those [who] mourn on it.
Be glad for Jerusalem and rejoice over her, all who love her. Rejoice greatly with her, all who mourn over her,
11 So that you may suck and you will be satisfied from [the] breast of consolations its so that you may suck and you will take delight from [the] nipple of abundance its.
so that you may nurse and be satisfied at her comforting breasts; you may drink deeply and delight yourselves in her glorious abundance.
12 For thus - he says Yahweh here I [am] about to extend to it like a river peace and like a torrent overflowing [the] abundance of nations and you will suck on a hip you will be carried and on knees you will be fondled.
For this is what the LORD says: “I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of nations like a flowing stream; you will nurse and be carried on her arm, and bounced upon her knees.
13 Like a person whom mother his she comforts him so I I will comfort you and in Jerusalem you will be comforted.
As a mother comforts her son, so will I comfort you, and you will be consoled over Jerusalem.”
14 And you will see and it will exult heart your and bones your like grass they will sprout and it will be made known [the] hand of Yahweh with servants his and he will be indignant enemies his.
When you see, you will rejoice, and you will flourish like grass; then the hand of the LORD will be revealed to His servants, but His wrath will be shown to His enemies.
15 For there! Yahweh in fire he will come and [will be] like the storm-wind chariots his to bring back with rage anger his and rebuke his with flames of fire.
For behold, the LORD will come with fire— His chariots are like a whirlwind— to execute His anger with fury and His rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For by fire Yahweh [will] enter into judgment and by sword his with all flesh and they will be many [those] slain of Yahweh.
For by fire and by His sword, the LORD will execute judgment on all flesh, and many will be slain by the LORD.
17 Who consecrate themselves and who purify themselves to the gardens after (one *Q(K)*) in the middle [those who] eat [the] flesh of the pig and the detestable thing and the mouse all together they will come to an end [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Those who consecrate and purify themselves to enter the groves—to follow one in the center of those who eat the flesh of swine and vermin and rats—will perish together,” declares the LORD.
18 And I deeds their and thoughts their [is] coming to gather all the nations and the languages and they will come and they will see glory my.
“And I, knowing their deeds and thoughts, am coming to gather all nations and tongues, and they will come and see My glory.
19 And I will perform among them a sign and I will send of them - survivors to the nations Tarshish Pul and Lud [those who] draw a bow Tubal and Javan the islands distant which not they have heard report my and not they have seen glory my and they will declare glory my among the nations.
I will establish a sign among them, and I will send survivors from among them to the nations—to Tarshish, Put, and the archers of Lud; to Tubal, Javan, and the islands far away who have not heard of My fame or seen My glory. So they will proclaim My glory among the nations.
20 And they will bring back all relatives your from all the nations - an offering - to Yahweh on horses and in chariot[s] and in wagons and on mules and on camels to [the] mountain of holiness my Jerusalem he says Yahweh just as they will bring [the] people of Israel the grain offering in a vessel pure [the] house of Yahweh.
And they will bring all your brothers from all the nations as a gift to the LORD on horses and chariots and wagons, on mules and camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the LORD, “just as the Israelites bring an offering in a clean vessel to the house of the LORD.”
21 And also some of them I will take to priests to Levites he says Yahweh.
“And I will select some of them as priests and Levites,” says the LORD.
22 For just as the heavens new and the earth new which I [am] about to make [will] endure before me [the] utterance of Yahweh so it will endure offspring your and name your.
“For just as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, will endure before Me,” declares the LORD, “so your descendants and your name will endure.
23 And it will be as often as a new moon in new moon its and as often as a sabbath in sabbath its it will come all flesh to bow down before me he says Yahweh.
From one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another, all mankind will come to worship before Me,” says the LORD.
24 And they will go out and they will look on [the] corpses of the people who rebelled against me for worm their not it will die and fire their not it will be extinguished and they will be an abhorrence to all flesh.
“As they go forth, they will see the corpses of the men who have rebelled against Me; for their worm will never die, their fire will never be quenched, and they will be a horror to all mankind.”
