| 40:2 | Speak1696 ye comfortably3820 to Jerusalem,3389 and cry7121 unto her, that her warfare6635 is accomplished,4390 that her iniquity5771 is pardoned:7521 for she hath received3947 of Yahweh's3068 hand3027 double3718 for all her sins.2403 |
| 40:3 | The voice6963 of him that crieth7121 in the wilderness,4057 Prepare6437 ye the way1870 of Yahweh,3068 make straight3474 in the desert6160 a highway4546 for our Elohim.430 |
| 40:4 | Every valley1516 shall be exalted,5375 and every mountain2022 and hill1389 shall be made low:8213 and the crooked6121 shall be made straight,4334 and the rough places7406 plain:1237 |
| 40:5 | And the glory3519 of Yahweh3068 shall be revealed,1540 and all flesh1320 shall see7200 it together:3162 for the mouth6310 of Yahweh3068 hath spoken1696 it. |
| 40:6 | The voice6963 said,559 Cry.7121 And he said,559 What shall I cry?7121 All flesh1320 is grass,2682 and all the goodliness2617 thereof is as the flower6731 of the field:7704 |
| 40:7 | The grass2682 withereth,3001 the flower6731 fadeth:5034 because the spirit7307 of Yahweh3068 bloweth5380 upon it: surely403 the people5971 is grass.2682 |
| 40:8 | The grass2682 withereth,3001 the flower6731 fadeth:5034 but the word1697 of our Elohim430 shall stand6965 for ever.5769 |
| 40:9 | O Zion,6726 that bringest good tidings,1319 get thee up5927 into the high1364 mountain;2022 O Jerusalem,3389 that bringest good tidings,1319 lift up7311 thy voice6963 with strength;3581 lift it up,7311 be not afraid;3372 say559 unto the cities5892 of Judah,3063 Behold your Elohim!430 |
| 40:10 | Behold, my Sovereign136 Yahweh3069 will come935 with strong2389 hand, and his arm2220 shall rule4910 for him: behold, his reward7939 is with him, and his work6468 before6440 him. |
| 40:11 | He shall feed7462 his flock5739 like a shepherd:7462 he shall gather6908 the lambs2922 with his arm,2220 and carry5375 them in his bosom,2436 and shall gently lead5095 those that are with young.5763 |
| 40:12 | Who hath measured4058 the waters4325 in the hollow of his hand,8168 and meted8505 out heaven8064 with the span,2239 and comprehended3557 the dust6083 of the earth776 in a measure,7991 and weighed8254 the mountains2022 in scales,6425 and the hills1389 in a balance?3976 |
| 40:13 | Who hath directed8505 the Spirit7307 of Yahweh,3068 or being his counsellor376 hath taught3045 him? |
| 40:14 | With whom took he counsel,3289 and who instructed995 him, and taught3925 him in the path734 of judgment,4941 and taught3925 him knowledge,1847 and shewed3045 to him the way1870 of understanding?8394 |
| 40:15 | Behold, the nations1471 are as a drop4752 of a bucket,1805 and are counted2803 as the small dust7834 of the balance:3976 behold, he taketh up5190 the isles339 as a very little thing.1851 |
| 40:16 | And Lebanon3844 is not369 sufficient1767 to burn,1197 nor369 the beasts2416 thereof sufficient1767 for a burnt offering.5930 |
| 40:17 | All nations1471 before him are as nothing; and they are counted2803 to him less than nothing,657 and vanity.8414 |
| 40:18 | To whom then will ye liken1819 El?410 or what likeness1823 will ye compare6186 unto him? |
| 40:19 | The workman2796 melteth5258 a graven image,6459 and the goldsmith6884 spreadeth7554 it over with gold,2091 and casteth6884 silver3701 chains.7577 |
| 40:20 | He that is so impoverished5533 that he hath no oblation8641 chooseth977 a tree6086 that will not rot;7537 he seeketh1245 unto him a cunning2450 workman2796 to prepare3559 a graven image,6459 that shall not be moved.4131 |
| 40:21 | Have ye not known?3045 have ye not heard?8085 hath it not been told5046 you from the beginning?7218 have ye not understood995 from the foundations4146 of the earth?776 |
| 40:22 | It is he that sitteth3427 upon the circle2329 of the earth,776 and the inhabitants3427 thereof are as grasshoppers;2284 that stretcheth out5186 the heavens8064 as a curtain,1852 and spreadeth them out4969 as a tent168 to dwell in:3427 |
| 40:23 | That bringeth5414 the princes7336 to nothing; he maketh6213 the judges8199 of the earth776 as vanity.8414 |
| 40:24 | Yea, they shall not be planted;5193 yea, they shall not be sown:2232 yea, their stock1503 shall not take root8327 in the earth:776 and he shall also blow5398 upon them, and they shall wither,3001 and the whirlwind5591 shall take them away5375 as stubble.7179 |
| 40:25 | To whom then will ye liken1819 me, or shall I be equal?7737 saith559 the Holy One.6918 |
| 40:26 | Lift up5375 your eyes5869 on high,4791 and behold7200 who hath created1254 these things, that bringeth out3318 their host6635 by number:4557 he calleth7121 them all by names8034 by the greatness7230 of his might,202 for that he is strong533 in power;3581 not one376 faileth.5737 |
| 40:27 | Why sayest559 thou, O Jacob,3290 and speakest,1696 O Israel,3478 My way1870 is hid5641 from Yahweh,3068 and my judgment4941 is passed over5674 from my Elohim?430 |
| 40:28 | Hast thou not known?3045 hast thou not heard,8085 that the everlasting5769 Elohim,430 Yahweh,3068 the Creator1254 of the ends7098 of the earth,776 fainteth3286 not, neither is weary?3021 there is no searching2714 of his understanding.8394 |
| 40:29 | He giveth5414 power3581 to the faint;3287 and to them that have no might202 he increaseth7235 strength.6109 |
| 40:30 | Even the youths5288 shall faint3286 and be weary,3021 and the young men970 shall utterly3782 fall:3782 |
| 40:31 | But they that wait6960 upon Yahweh3068 shall renew2498 their strength;3581 they shall mount up5927 with wings83 as eagles;5404 they shall run,7323 and not be weary;3021 and they shall walk,3212 and not faint.3286 |
