KJVThey shall not hurt^H7489^(H8686) nor destroy^H7843^(H8686) in all my holy^H6944 mountain^H2022: for the earth^H776 shall be full^H4390^(H8804) of the knowledge^H1844 of the LORD^H3068, as the waters^H4325 cover^H3680^(H8764) the sea^H3220.

KJVThe envy^H7068 also of Ephraim^H669 shall depart^H5493^(H8804), and the adversaries^H6887^(H8802) of Judah^H3063 shall be cut off^H3772^(H8735): Ephraim^H669 shall not envy^H7065^(H8762) Judah^H3063, and Judah^H3063 shall not vex^H6887^(H8799) Ephraim^H669.

WEB·Isaiah 10

¹Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees

KJVWoe^H1945 unto them that decree^H2710^(H8802) unrighteous^H205 decrees^H2711, and that write^H3789^(H8764) grievousness^H5999 which they have prescribed^H3789^(H8765);

² to deprive the needy of justice, and to rob the poor among my people of their rights, that widows may be their plunder, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!

KJVTo turn aside^H5186^(H8687) the needy^H1800 from judgment^H1779, and to take away^H1497^(H8800) the right^H4941 from the poor^H6041 of my people^H5971, that widows^H490 may be their prey^H7998, and that they may rob^H962^(H8799) the fatherless^H3490!

³ What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?

KJVAnd what will ye do^H6213^(H8799) in the day^H3117 of visitation^H6486, and in the desolation^H7722 which shall come^H935^(H8799) from far^H4801? to whom will ye flee^H5127^(H8799) for help^H5833? and where will ye leave^H5800^(H8799) your glory^H3519?

⁴ They will only bow down under the prisoners, and will fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

KJVWithout me they shall^H1115 bow down^H3766^(H8804) under the prisoners^H616, and they shall fall^H5307^(H8799) under the slain^H2026^(H8803). For all this his anger^H639 is not turned away^H7725^(H8804), but his hand^H3027 is stretched out still^H5186^(H8803).

⁵ Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation!

KJVO^H1945 Assyrian^H804, the rod^H7626 of mine anger^H639, and the staff^H4294 in their hand^H3027 is mine indignation^H2195.

⁶ I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people who anger me I will give him a command to take the plunder and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

KJVI will send^H7971^(H8762) him against an hypocritical^H2611 nation^H1471, and against the people^H5971 of my wrath^H5678 will I give him a charge^H6680^(H8762), to take^H7997^(H8800) the spoil^H7998, and to take^H962^(H8800) the prey^H957, and to tread them down^H7760^(H8800)^H4823 like the mire^H2563 of the streets^H2351.

⁷ However, he doesn’t mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.

KJVHowbeit he meaneth^H1819^(H8762) not so, neither doth his heart^H3824 think^H2803^(H8799) so; but it is in his heart^H3824 to destroy^H8045^(H8687) and cut off^H3772^(H8687) nations^H1471 not a few^H4592.

⁸ For he says, “Aren’t all of my princes kings?

KJVFor he saith^H559^(H8799), Are not my princes^H8269 altogether^H3162 kings^H4428?

⁹ Isn’t Calno like Carchemish? Isn’t Hamath like Arpad? Isn’t Samaria like Damascus?”

KJVIs not Calno^H3641 as Carchemish^H3751? is not Hamath^H2574 as Arpad^H774? is not Samaria^H8111 as Damascus^H1834?

¹⁰ As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those of Jerusalem and of Samaria,

KJVAs my hand^H3027 hath found^H4672^(H8804) the kingdoms^H4467 of the idols^H457, and whose graven images^H6456 did excel them of Jerusalem^H3389 and of Samaria^H8111;

¹¹ shall I not, as I have done to Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?

KJVShall I not, as I have done^H6213^(H8804) unto Samaria^H8111 and her idols^H457, so do^H6213^(H8799) to Jerusalem^H3389 and her idols^H6091?

¹² Therefore it will happen that when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the insolence of his arrogant looks.

KJVWherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord^H136 hath performed^H1214^(H8762) his whole work^H4639 upon mount^H2022 Zion^H6726 and on Jerusalem^H3389, I will punish^H6485^(H8799) the fruit^H6529 of the stout^H1433 heart^H3824 of the king^H4428 of Assyria^H804, and the glory^H8597 of his high^H7312 looks^H5869.

¹³ For he has said, “By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding. I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.

KJVFor he saith^H559^(H8804), By the strength^H3581 of my hand^H3027 I have done^H6213^(H8804) it, and by my wisdom^H2451; for I am prudent^H995^(H8738): and I have removed^H5493^(H8686) the bounds^H1367 of the people^H5971, and have robbed^H8154^(H8782) their treasures^H6259^(H8675)^H6264, and I have put down^H3381^(H8686) the inhabitants^H3427^(H8802) like a valiant^H47^H3524 man:

¹⁴ My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, I have gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped.”

KJVAnd my hand^H3027 hath found^H4672^(H8799) as a nest^H7064 the riches^H2428 of the people^H5971: and as one gathereth^H622^(H8800) eggs^H1000 that are left^H5800^(H8803), have I gathered^H622^(H8804) all the earth^H776; and there was none that moved^H5074^(H8802) the wing^H3671, or opened^H6475^(H8802) the mouth^H6310, or peeped^H6850^(H8772).

¹⁵ Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.

KJVShall the axe^H1631 boast^H6286^(H8691) itself against him that heweth^H2672^(H8802) therewith? or shall the saw^H4883 magnify^H1431^(H8691) itself against him that shaketh^H5130^(H8688) it? as if the rod^H7626 should shake^H5130^(H8687) itself against them that lift it up^H7311^(H8688), or as if the staff^H4294 should lift up^H7311^(H8687) itself, as if it were no wood^H6086.

¹⁶ Therefore the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.

KJVTherefore shall the Lord^H113, the Lord^H136^(H8676)^H3068 of hosts^H6635, send^H7971^(H8762) among his fat ones^H4924 leanness^H7332; and under his glory^H3519 he shall kindle^H3344^(H8799) a burning^H3350 like the burning of a fire^H784.

¹⁷ The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.

KJVAnd the light^H216 of Israel^H3478 shall be for a fire^H784, and his Holy One^H6918 for a flame^H3852: and it shall burn^H1197^(H8804) and devour^H398^(H8804) his thorns^H7898 and his briers^H8068 in one^H259 day^H3117;

¹⁸ He will consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.

KJVAnd shall consume^H3615^(H8762) the glory^H3519 of his forest^H3293, and of his fruitful field^H3759, both soul^H5315 and body^H1320: and they shall be as when a standardbearer^H5263^(H8802) fainteth^H4549^(H8800).

¹⁹ The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.

KJVAnd the rest^H7605 of the trees^H6086 of his forest^H3293 shall be few^H4557, that a child^H5288 may write^H3789^(H8799) them.

²⁰ It will come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those who have escaped from the house of Jacob will no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

KJVAnd it shall come to pass in that day^H3117, that the remnant^H7605 of Israel^H3478, and such as are escaped^H6413 of the house^H1004 of Jacob^H3290, shall no more again^H3254^(H8686) stay^H8172^(H8736) upon him that smote^H5221^(H8688) them; but shall stay^H8172^(H8738) upon the LORD^H3068, the Holy One^H6918 of Israel^H3478, in truth^H571.

²¹ A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.

KJVThe remnant^H7605 shall return^H7725^(H8799), even the remnant^H7605 of Jacob^H3290, unto the mighty^H1368 God^H410.

²² For though your people, Israel, are like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. A destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.

KJVFor though thy people^H5971 Israel^H3478 be as the sand^H2344 of the sea^H3220, yet a remnant^H7605 of them shall return^H7725^(H8799): the consumption^H3631 decreed^H2782^(H8803) shall overflow^H7857^(H8802) with righteousness^H6666.

²³ For the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, will make a full end, and that determined, throughout all the earth.

KJVFor the Lord^H136 GOD^H3069 of hosts^H6635 shall make^H6213^(H8802) a consumption^H3617, even determined^H2782^(H8737), in the midst^H7130 of all the land^H776.

²⁴ Therefore the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, says, “My people who dwell in Zion, don’t be afraid of the Assyrian, though he strike you with the rod, and lift up his staff against you, as Egypt did.

KJVTherefore thus saith^H559^(H8804) the Lord^H136 GOD^H3069 of hosts^H6635, O my people^H5971 that dwellest^H3427^(H8802) in Zion^H6726, be not afraid^H3372^(H8799) of the Assyrian^H804: he shall smite^H5221^(H8686) thee with a rod^H7626, and shall lift up^H5375^(H8799) his staff^H4294 against thee, after the manner^H1870 of Egypt^H4714.

²⁵ For yet a very little while, and the indignation against you will be accomplished, and my anger will be directed to his destruction.”

KJVFor yet a very^H4213 little while^H4592, and the indignation^H2195 shall cease^H3615^(H8804), and mine anger^H639 in their destruction^H8399.

²⁶ Yahweh of Armies will stir up a scourge against him, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb. His rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up like he did against Egypt.

KJVAnd the LORD^H3068 of hosts^H6635 shall stir up^H5782^(H8790) a scourge^H7752 for him according to the slaughter^H4347 of Midian^H4080 at the rock^H6697 of Oreb^H6159: and as his rod^H4294 was upon the sea^H3220, so shall he lift it up^H5375^(H8804) after the manner^H1870 of Egypt^H4714.

²⁷ It will happen in that day that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing oil.

KJVAnd it shall come to pass in that day^H3117, that his burden^H5448 shall be taken away^H5493^(H8799) from off thy shoulder^H7926, and his yoke^H5923 from off thy neck^H6677, and the yoke^H5923 shall be destroyed^H2254^(H8795) because^H6440 of the anointing^H8081.

²⁸ He has come to Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he stores his baggage.

KJVHe is come^H935^(H8804) to Aiath^H5857, he is passed^H5674^(H8804) to Migron^H4051; at Michmash^H4363 he hath laid up^H6485^(H8686) his carriages^H3627:

²⁹ They have gone over the pass. They have taken up their lodging at Geba. Ramah trembles. Gibeah of Saul has fled.

KJVThey are gone over^H5674^(H8804) the passage^H4569: they have taken up their lodging^H4411 at Geba^H1387; Ramah^H7414 is afraid^H2729^(H8804); Gibeah^H1390 of Saul^H7586 is fled^H5127^(H8804).

³⁰ Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim! Listen, Laishah! You poor Anathoth!

KJVLift up^H6670^(H8761) thy voice^H6963, O daughter^H1323 of^H1530 Gallim^H1554: cause it to be heard^H7181^(H8685) unto Laish^H3919, O poor^H6041 Anathoth^H6068.

³¹ Madmenah is a fugitive. The inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety.

KJVMadmenah^H4088 is removed^H5074^(H8804); the inhabitants^H3427^(H8802) of Gebim^H1374 gather themselves to flee^H5756^(H8689).

³² This very day he will halt at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

KJVAs yet shall he remain^H5975^(H8800) at Nob^H5011 that day^H3117: he shall shake^H5130^(H8787) his hand^H3027 against the mount^H2022 of the daughter^H1323^(H8675)^H1004 of Zion^H6726, the hill^H1389 of Jerusalem^H3389.

³³ Behold, the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, will lop the boughs with terror. The tall will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.

KJVBehold, the Lord^H113, the LORD^H3068 of hosts^H6635, shall lop^H5586^(H8764) the bough^H6288 with terror^H4637: and the high ones^H7311^(H8802) of stature^H6967 shall be hewn down^H1438^(H8803), and the haughty^H1364 shall be humbled^H8213^(H8799).

³⁴ He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.

KJVAnd he shall cut down^H5362^(H8765) the thickets^H5442 of the forest^H3293 with iron^H1270, and Lebanon^H3844 shall fall^H5307^(H8799) by a mighty one^H117.
