Bible Reading for July 27
Isaiah 61
[1] The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to
preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the
prison to them that are bound;
[2] To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of
our God; to comfort all that mourn; [3] To appoint unto them that mourn in
Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the
garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees
of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. [4] And
they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations,
and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
[5] And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien
shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. [6] But ye shall be named the
Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat
the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
[7] For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice
in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double:
everlasting joy shall be unto them. [8] For I the LORD love judgment, I hate
robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will
make an everlasting covenant with them.
[9] And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among
the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed
which the LORD hath blessed. [10] I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul
shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of
salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom
decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her
jewels. [11] For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth
the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause
righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
Isaiah 62
[1] For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will
not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the
salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth. [2] And the Gentiles shall see thy
righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name,
which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
[3] Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal
diadem in the hand of thy God.
[4] Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be
termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for
the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. [5] For as a young
man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom
rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
[6] I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold
their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,
[7] And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a
praise in the earth.
[8] The LORD hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength,
Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thine enemies; and the sons
of the stranger shall not drink thy wine, for the which thou hast laboured:
[9] But they that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they
that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness.
[10] Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast
up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the
people.
[11] Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the
daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him,
and his work before him.
[12] And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and
thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.
Isaiah 63
[1] Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this
that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I
that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. [2] Wherefore art thou red in
thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?
[3] I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with
me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their
blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
[4] For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is
come.
[5] And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was
none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury,
it upheld me.
[6] And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my
fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth. [7] I will mention the
lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all
that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of
Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according
to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
[8] For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he
was their Saviour.
[9] In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence
saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and
carried them all the days of old. [10] But they rebelled, and vexed his holy
Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
[11] Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where
is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where
is he that put his holy Spirit within him? [12] That led them by the right hand
of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself
an everlasting name? [13] That led them through the deep, as an horse in the
wilderness, that they should not stumble?
[14] As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him
to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name. [15]
Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of
thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and
of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained? [16] Doubtless thou art our
father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou,
O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.
[17] O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, and hardened our heart
from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
[18] The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our
adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary. [19] We are thine: thou never
barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.
