# Isaiah 65 (New King James Version)
|
|
The Righteousness of God's Judgment
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 65
|
|
###### 1 "I was sought by _those who_ did not ask _for Me;_
|
|
I was found by _those who_ did not seek Me.
|
|
I said, 'Here I am, here I am,'
|
|
To a nation _that_ was not called by My name.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 I have stretched out My hands all day long to a rebellious people,
|
|
Who walk in a way _that is_ not good,
|
|
According to their own thoughts;
|
|
|
|
###### 3 A people who provoke Me to anger continually to My face;
|
|
Who sacrifice in gardens,
|
|
And burn incense on altars of brick;
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Who sit among the graves,
|
|
And spend the night in the tombs;
|
|
Who eat swine's flesh,
|
|
And the broth of abominable things is _in_ their vessels;
|
|
|
|
###### 5 Who say, 'Keep to yourself,
|
|
Do not come near me,
|
|
For I am holier than you!'
|
|
These _are_ smoke in My nostrils,
|
|
A fire that burns all the day.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 "Behold, _it is_ written before Me:
|
|
I will not keep silence, but will repay--
|
|
Even repay into their bosom--
|
|
|
|
###### 7 Your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together,"
|
|
Says the Lord,
|
|
"Who have burned incense on the mountains
|
|
And blasphemed Me on the hills;
|
|
Therefore I will measure their former work into their bosom."
|
|
|
|
###### 8 Thus says the Lord:
|
|
"As the new wine is found in the cluster,
|
|
And _one_ says, 'Do not destroy it,
|
|
For a blessing _is_ in it,'
|
|
So will I do for My servants' sake,
|
|
That I may not destroy them all.
|
|
|
|
###### 9 I will bring forth descendants from Jacob,
|
|
And from Judah an heir of My mountains;
|
|
My elect shall inherit it,
|
|
And My servants shall dwell there.
|
|
|
|
###### 10 Sharon shall be a fold of flocks,
|
|
And the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down,
|
|
For My people who have sought Me.
|
|
|
|
###### 11 "But you _are_ those who forsake the Lord,
|
|
Who forget My holy mountain,
|
|
Who prepare a table for Gad,
|
|
And who furnish a drink offering for Meni.
|
|
|
|
###### 12 Therefore I will number you for the sword,
|
|
And you shall all bow down to the slaughter;
|
|
Because, when I called, you did not answer;
|
|
When I spoke, you did not hear,
|
|
But did evil before My eyes,
|
|
And chose _that_ in which I do not delight."
|
|
|
|
###### 13 Therefore thus says the Lord God:
|
|
"Behold, My servants shall eat,
|
|
But you shall be hungry;
|
|
Behold, My servants shall drink,
|
|
But you shall be thirsty;
|
|
Behold, My servants shall rejoice,
|
|
But you shall be ashamed;
|
|
|
|
###### 14 Behold, My servants shall sing for joy of heart,
|
|
But you shall cry for sorrow of heart,
|
|
And wail for grief of spirit.
|
|
|
|
###### 15 You shall leave your name as a curse to My chosen;
|
|
For the Lord God will slay you,
|
|
And call His servants by another name;
|
|
|
|
###### 16 So that he who blesses himself in the earth
|
|
Shall bless himself in the God of truth;
|
|
And he who swears in the earth
|
|
Shall swear by the God of truth;
|
|
Because the former troubles are forgotten,
|
|
And because they are hidden from My eyes.The Glorious New Creation
|
|
|
|
###### 17 "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;
|
|
And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind.
|
|
|
|
###### 18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create;
|
|
For behold, I create Jerusalem _as_ a rejoicing,
|
|
And her people a joy.
|
|
|
|
###### 19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem,
|
|
And joy in My people;
|
|
The voice of weeping shall no longer be heard in her,
|
|
Nor the voice of crying.
|
|
|
|
###### 20 "No more shall an infant from there _live but a few_ days,
|
|
Nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days;
|
|
For the child shall die one hundred years old,
|
|
But the sinner _being_ one hundred years old shall be accursed.
|
|
|
|
###### 21 They shall build houses and inhabit _them;_
|
|
They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
|
|
|
|
###### 22 They shall not build and another inhabit;
|
|
They shall not plant and another eat;
|
|
For as the days of a tree, _so shall be_ the days of My people,
|
|
And My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
|
|
|
|
###### 23 They shall not labor in vain,
|
|
Nor bring forth children for trouble;
|
|
For they _shall be_ the descendants of the blessed of the Lord,
|
|
And their offspring with them.
|
|
|
|
###### 24 "It shall come to pass
|
|
That before they call, I will answer;
|
|
And while they are still speaking, I will hear.
|
|
|
|
###### 25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together,
|
|
The lion shall eat straw like the ox,
|
|
And dust _shall be_ the serpent's food.
|
|
They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
