Isaias

3 For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; ’thy seed shall possess nations, and make desolate. nations to be inhabited.

4 Fear not, for thou shalt not be ashamed; and be not confounded, for thou shalt not blush; for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

5 For thy husband is thy Maker; the LORD of Hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel: the God of the whole earth shall he be called.

6 For the LORD hath called thee as a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when she is rejected, saith ᾖ thy God.

7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great - mercies I gather thee.

8 In a gush of wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; and with everlasting lovingkindness will I have mercy on thee; saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

9 For this is the waters of Noah unto me; as I have sworn i that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I will not be wrbth with thee, nor re? buke thee

10 For the mountains shall remove, and the hills totter; yet my lovingkindness shall not remove from thee, nor my covenant of peace totter, saith he that hath mercy on thee, the Lord.

11 Ο thou afficted, tossed with tempest, not comforted ; behold I lay thy stones in antimony, and thy foundations with sapphires.

12 And I will make thy battlements rubies, and thy gates. to be fiery stones, and all thy border stones of pleasure.

13 And all thy sons shall be disciples of the LORD, andgreat shallbe the peace of thy sons.

14 In righteousness shalt thou be established; be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from destruction, for it shall not come near thee.

15 Behold, they surely gather together; it is not of me; who gathereth against thee? he shall fall because of thee.

16 Behold, I have created the craftsman, that bloweth on the fire of coals, and that bringeth forth a weapon for its work; and Ι have created the waster to destroy.

17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue (that) shall rise up against thee in judgment thou shalt convict. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness from me, saith the Lord.

LV. 1 Ah, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no silver; come ye, buy and eat: and come, buy wine and milk, for no silver and for no price.

2 Wherefore do ye weigh silver for no bread, and your earnings for that which is not to satisfy? hearken, (only) hearken unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you; the faithful lovingkindnesses of David.

4 Behold, I have given him for a witness of peoples, a chief and commander of peoples.

5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nationthat knoweth not thee shall run unto thee; for the sake of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
