Isaiah 9 - 10

For to Us a Child Is Born

1 Nevertheless a the gloom will not be upon her who is distressed,
As when at b first He lightly esteemed
The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
And c afterward more heavily oppressed her,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
In Galilee of the Gentiles.

2 d The people who walked in darkness
Have seen a great light;
Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death,
Upon them a light has shined. 3 You have multiplied the nation
And 1 increased its joy;
They rejoice before You
According to the joy of harvest,
As men rejoice e when they divide the spoil. 4 For You have broken the yoke of his burden
And the staff of his shoulder,
The rod of his oppressor,
As in the day of f Midian. 5 For every warrior's 2 sandal from the noisy battle,
And garments rolled in blood,
g Will be used for burning and fuel 3 of fire. 6 h For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a i Son is given;
And j the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
k Wonderful, Counselor, l Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, m Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of His government and peace
n There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The o zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Judgment on Arrogance and Oppression

8 The Lord sent a word against p Jacob,
And it has fallen on Israel. 9 All the people will know -
Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria -
Who say in pride and arrogance of heart: 10 "The bricks have fallen down,
But we will rebuild with hewn stones;
The sycamores are cut down,
But we will replace them with cedars." 11 Therefore the LORD shall set up
The adversaries of Rezin against him,
And spur his enemies on, 12 The Syrians before and the Philistines behind;
And they shall devour Israel with an open mouth.
For all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is 4 stretched out still.

13 For the people do not turn to Him who strikes them,
Nor do they seek the LORD of hosts. 14 Therefore the LORD will cut off head and tail from Israel,
Palm branch and bulrush q in one day. 15 The elder and honorable, he is the head;
The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail. 16 For r the leaders of this people cause them to err,
And those who are led by them are destroyed. 17 Therefore the Lord s will have no joy in their young men,
Nor have mercy on their fatherless and widows;
For everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer,
And every mouth speaks 5 folly.
t For all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.

18 For wickedness u burns as the fire;
It shall devour the briers and thorns,
And kindle in the thickets of the forest;
They shall mount up like rising smoke. 19 Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts
v The land is burned up,
And the people shall be as fuel for the fire;
w No man shall spare his brother. 20 And he shall 6 snatch on the right hand
And be hungry;
He shall devour on the left hand
x And not be satisfied;
y Every man shall eat the flesh of his own arm. 21 Manasseh shall devour Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh;
Together they shall be z against Judah.
a For all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.

Isaiah 10

1 "Woe to those who a decree unrighteous decrees,
Who write misfortune,
Which they have prescribed 2 To rob the needy of justice,
And to take what is right from the poor of My people,
That widows may be their prey,
And that they may rob the fatherless. 3 b What will you do in c the day of punishment,
And in the desolation which will come from d afar?
To whom will you flee for help?
And where will you leave your glory? 4 Without Me they shall bow down among the e prisoners,
And they shall fall 7 among the slain."
f For all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.

Judgment on Arrogant Assyria

5 "Woe to Assyria, g the rod of My anger
And the staff in whose hand is My indignation. 6 I will send him against h an ungodly nation,
And against the people of My wrath
I will i give him charge,
To seize the spoil, to take the prey,
And to tread them down like the mire of the streets. 7 j Yet he does not mean so,
Nor does his heart think so;
But it is in his heart to destroy,
And cut off not a few nations. 8 k For he says,
' Are not my princes altogether kings? 9 Is not l Calno m like Carchemish?
Is not Hamath like Arpad?
Is not Samaria n like Damascus? 10 As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols,
Whose carved images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria, 11 As I have done to Samaria and her idols,
Shall I not do also to Jerusalem and her idols?' "

12 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Lord has 8 performed all His work o on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, that He will say, p "I will punish the fruit of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his haughty looks."

13 q For he says:
"By the strength of my hand I have done it,
And by my wisdom, for I am prudent;
Also I have removed the boundaries of the people,
And have robbed their treasuries;
So I have put down the inhabitants like a 9 valiant man. 14 r My hand has found like a nest the riches of the people,
And as one gathers eggs that are left,
I have gathered all the earth;
And there was no one who moved his wing,
Nor opened his mouth with even a peep."

15 Shall s the ax boast itself against him who chops with it?
Or shall the saw exalt itself against him who saws with it?
As if a rod could wield itself against those who lift it up,
Or as if a staff could lift up, as if it were not wood! 16 Therefore the Lord, the 10 Lord of hosts,
Will send leanness among his fat ones;
And under his glory
He will kindle a burning
Like the burning of a fire. 17 So the Light of Israel will be for a fire,
And his Holy One for a flame;
t It will burn and devour
His thorns and his briers in one day. 18 And it will consume the glory of his forest and of u his fruitful field,
Both soul and body;
And they will be as when a sick man wastes away. 19 Then the rest of the trees of his forest
Will be so few in number
That a child may write them.

The Remnant of Israel Will Return

20 And it shall come to pass in that day
That the remnant of Israel,
And such as have escaped of the house of Jacob,
v Will never again depend on him who 11 defeated them,
But will depend on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. 21 The remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob,
To the w Mighty God. 22 x For though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea,
y A remnant of them will return;
The destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness. 23 z For the Lord GOD of hosts
Will make a determined end
In the midst of all the land.

24 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD of hosts: "O My people, who dwell in Zion, a do not be afraid of the Assyrian. He shall strike you with a rod and lift up his staff against you, in the manner of b Egypt. 25 "For yet a very little while c and the indignation will cease, as will My anger in their destruction." 26 And the LORD of hosts will 12 stir up d a scourge for him like the slaughter of e Midian at the rock of Oreb; f as His rod was on the sea, so will He lift it up in the manner of Egypt. 27 It shall come to pass in that day
That his burden will be taken away from your shoulder,
And his yoke from your neck,
And the yoke will be destroyed because of g the anointing oil.

28 He has come to Aiath,
He has passed Migron;
At Michmash he has attended to his equipment. 29 They have gone 13 along h the ridge,
They have taken up lodging at Geba.
Ramah is afraid,
i Gibeah of Saul has fled. 30 14 Lift up your voice,
O daughter j of Gallim!
Cause it to be heard as far as k Laish -
15 O poor Anathoth! 31 l Madmenah has fled,
The inhabitants of Gebim seek refuge. 32 As yet he will remain m at Nob that day;
He will n shake his fist at the mount of o the daughter of Zion,
The hill of Jerusalem.

33 Behold, the Lord,
The LORD of hosts,
Will lop off the bough with terror;
p Those of high stature will be hewn down,
And the haughty will be humbled. 34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron,
And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
