Bible Reading for July 11

Isaiah 13
[1] The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see. [2] Lift ye up
a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand,
that they may go into the gates of the nobles. [3] I have commanded my
sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them
that rejoice in my highness. [4] The noise of a multitude in the mountains,
like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations
gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle. [5] They
come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons
of his indignation, to destroy the whole land. [6] Howl ye; for the day of the
LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
[7] Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt: [8]
And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall
be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another;
their faces shall be as flames. [9] Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel
both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall
destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
[10] For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give
their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall
not cause her light to shine. [11] And I will punish the world for their evil,
and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud
to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. [12] I will make a
man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
[13] Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her
place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
[14] And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up:
they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own
land.
[15] Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is
joined unto them shall fall by the sword. [16] Their children also shall be
dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their
wives ravished. [17] Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall
not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it. [18] Their
bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on
the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children. [19] And Babylon,
the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when
God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. [20] It shall never be inhabited, neither
shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian
pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there. [21] But
wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of
doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
[22] And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and
dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days
shall not be prolonged.

Isaiah 14
[1] For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set
them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they
shall cleave to the house of Jacob. [2] And the people shall take them, and
bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the
land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives,
whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors. [3] And it
shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy
sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to
serve,
[4] That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say,
How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased! [5] The LORD hath broken
the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers.
[6] He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the
nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth. [7] The whole earth is at
rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing. [8] Yea, the fir trees
rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid down,
no feller is come up against us. [9] Hell from beneath is moved for thee to
meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief
ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the
nations. [10] All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak
as we? art thou become like unto us?
[11] Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the
worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. [12] How art thou fallen
from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the
ground, which didst weaken the nations! [13] For thou hast said in thine heart,
I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I
will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
[14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most
High.
[15] Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. [16] They
that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this
the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
[17] That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof;
that opened not the house of his prisoners? [18] All the kings of the nations,
even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
[19] But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the
raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to
the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet. [20] Thou shalt not be
joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy
people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.
[21] Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that
they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with
cities.
[22] For I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from
Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD. [23] I will
also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep
it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts. [24] The LORD of
hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass;
and as I have purposed, so shall it stand: [25] That I will break the Assyrian
in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke
depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
[26] This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the
hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. [27] For the LORD of hosts
hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and
who shall turn it back? [28] In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
[29] Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee
is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his
fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. [30] And the firstborn of the poor shall
feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with
famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
[31] Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there
shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed
times.
[32] What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD
hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.

Isaiah 15
[1] The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and
brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought
to silence;
[2] He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall
howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and
every beard cut off.
[3] In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of
their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.
[4] And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto
Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be
grievous unto him.
[5] My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an
heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall
they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of
destruction.
[6] For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away,
the grass faileth, there is no green thing. [7] Therefore the abundance they
have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the
brook of the willows. [8] For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab;
the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beer-elim. [9]
For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon
Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.
