Isaias

Hebrew Bible

Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

19 And the remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, and a child may write them.

20 And it shall be in that day, the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again lean upon him that smote them; but shall lean upon the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

21 The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, unto the Mighty God.

22 For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant (only) of it shall return; destruction is decided, overflowing in righteousness.

23 For a destruction and a decision shall the Lord GOD of Hosts make, in the midst of all the earth.

24 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Hosts, Be not afraid, my people that dwellest in Zion, of Asshur; though he smite thee with a rod, and lift up his staff against thee, in the way of Egypt.

25 For yet a very little while, and indignation shall be at an end, and mine anger shall be to their destruction.

26 And the LORD of Hosts shall stir up a scourge against him like the smiting of Midian at the rock Oreb ; and his rod is upon the sea, and he lifteth it up, in the way of Egypt.

27 And it shall be in that day, his burden shall remove from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from of? thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed by reason of fatness.
