Isaiah 51
51:1

Hearken8085 to me, ye that follow after7291 righteousness,6664 ye that seek1245 Yahweh:3068 look5027 unto the rock6697 whence ye are hewn,2672 and to the hole4718 of the pit953 whence ye are digged.5365

51:2

Look5027 unto Abraham85 your father,1 and unto Sarah8283 that bare2342 you: for I called7121 him alone,259 and blessed1288 him, and increased7235 him.

51:3

For Yahweh3068 shall comfort5162 Zion:6726 he will comfort5162 all her waste places;2723 and he will make7760 her wilderness4057 like Eden,5731 and her desert6160 like the garden1588 of Yahweh;3068 joy8342 and gladness8057 shall be found4672 therein, thanksgiving,8426 and the voice6963 of melody.2172

51:4

Hearken7181 unto me, my people;5971 and give ear238 unto me, O my nation:3816 for a law8451 shall proceed3318 from me, and I will make my judgment4941 to rest7280 for a light216 of the people.5971

51:5

My righteousness6664 is near;7138 my salvation3468 is gone forth,3318 and mine arms2220 shall judge8199 the people;5971 the isles339 shall wait6960 upon me, and on mine arm2220 shall they trust.3176

51:6

Lift up5375 your eyes5869 to the heavens,8064 and look5027 upon the earth776 beneath: for the heavens8064 shall vanish away4414 like smoke,6227 and the earth776 shall wax old1086 like a garment,899 and they that dwell3427 therein shall die4191 in like3644 manner:3654 but my salvation3444 shall be for ever,5769 and my righteousness6666 shall not be abolished.2865

51:7

Hearken8085 unto me, ye that know3045 righteousness,6664 the people5971 in whose heart3820 is my law;8451 fear3372 ye not the reproach2781 of men,582 neither be ye afraid2865 of their revilings.1421

51:8

For the moth6211 shall eat398 them up like a garment,899 and the worm5580 shall eat398 them like wool:6785 but my righteousness6666 shall be for ever,5769 and my salvation3444 from generation1755 to generation.1755

51:9

Awake,5782 awake,5782 put on3847 strength,5797 O arm2220 of Yahweh;3068 awake,5782 as in the ancient6924 days,3117 in the generations1755 of old.5769 Art thou not it that hath cut2672 Rahab,7294 and wounded2490 the dragon?8577

51:10

Art thou not it which hath dried2717 the sea,3220 the waters4325 of the great7227 deep;8415 that hath made7760 the depths4615 of the sea3220 a way1870 for the ransomed1350 to pass over?5674

51:11

Therefore the redeemed6299 of Yahweh3068 shall return,7725 and come935 with singing7440 unto Zion;6726 and everlasting5769 joy8057 shall be upon their head:7218 they shall obtain5381 gladness8342 and joy;8057 and sorrow3015 and mourning585 shall flee away.5127

51:12

I, even I, am he that comforteth5162 you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid3372 of a man582 that shall die,4191 and of the son1121 of man120 which shall be made5414 as grass;2682

51:13

And forgettest7911 Yahweh3068 thy maker,6213 that hath stretched forth5186 the heavens,8064 and laid the foundations3245 of the earth;776 and hast feared6342 continually8548 every day3117 because6440 of the fury2534 of the oppressor,6693 as if834 he were ready3559 to destroy?7843 and where is the fury2534 of the oppressor?6693

51:14

The captive exile6808 hasteneth4116 that he may be loosed,6605 and that he should not die4191 in the pit,7845 nor that his bread3899 should fail.2637

51:15

But I am Yahweh3068 thy Elohim,430 that divided7280 the sea,3220 whose waves1530 roared:1993 Yahweh3068 of hosts6635 is his name.8034

51:16

And I have put7760 my words1697 in thy mouth,6310 and I have covered3680 thee in the shadow6738 of mine hand,3027 that I may plant5193 the heavens,8064 and lay the foundations3245 of the earth,776 and say559 unto Zion,6726 Thou art my people.5971

51:17

Awake,5782 awake,5782 stand up,6965 O Jerusalem,3389 which hast drunk8354 at the hand3027 of Yahweh3068 the cup3563 of his fury;2534 thou hast drunken8354 the dregs6907 of the cup3563 of trembling,8653 and wrung them out.4680

51:18

There is none to guide5095 her among all the sons1121 whom she hath brought forth;3205 neither is there any that taketh2388 her by the hand3027 of all the sons1121 that she hath brought up.1431

51:19

These two8147 things are come7122 unto thee; who shall be sorry5110 for thee? desolation,7701 and destruction,7667 and the famine,7458 and the sword:2719 by whom shall I comfort5162 thee?

51:20

Thy sons1121 have fainted,5968 they lie7901 at the head7218 of all the streets,2351 as a wild bull8377 in a net:4364 they are full4392 of the fury2534 of Yahweh,3068 the rebuke1606 of thy Elohim.430

51:21

Therefore hear8085 now this, thou afflicted,6041 and drunken,7937 but not with wine:3196

51:22

Thus saith559 thy Sovereign113 Yahweh,3068 and thy Elohim430 that pleadeth7378 the cause of his people,5971 Behold, I have taken3947 out of thine hand3027 the cup3563 of trembling,8653 even the dregs6907 of the cup3563 of my fury;2534 thou shalt no more3254 drink8354 it again:

51:23

But I will put7760 it into the hand3027 of them that afflict3013 thee; which have said559 to thy soul,5315 Bow down,7812 that we may go over:5674 and thou hast laid7760 thy body1460 as the ground,776 and as the street,2351 to them that went over.5674
