CHAPTER 28
Isaiah 28:1
1 Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty
is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are
overcome  with wine!
Isaiah 28:2
2 Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and
a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to
the earth  with the hand.
Isaiah 28:3
3 The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
Isaiah 28:4
4 And the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a
fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that
looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand  he eateth it up. Isaiah
28:5
5 In that day shall the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem
of beauty, unto the residue of his people, Isaiah 28:6
6 And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for
strength to them that turn the battle to the gate. Isaiah 28:7
7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of
the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are
swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way  through strong drink; they err 
in vision,  they stumble  in judgment. Isaiah 28:8
8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place
clean.
Isaiah 28:9
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?
them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. Isaiah 28:10
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line
upon line; here a little, and there a little: Isaiah 28:11
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
Isaiah 28:12
12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest;
and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. Isaiah 28:13
13 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon
precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little;
that they might go,  and fall  backward,  and be broken,  and snared,  and
taken.
Isaiah 28:14
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people
which is in Jerusalem.
Isaiah 28:15
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are
we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not
come unto us: for we have made lies  our refuge,  and under falsehood  have we
hid  ourselves:
Isaiah 28:16
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a
stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that
believeth  shall not make haste.
Isaiah 28:17
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and
the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the
hiding place.
Isaiah 28:18
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with
hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye
shall be trodden down by it. Isaiah 28:19
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning
shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to
understand the report.
Isaiah 28:20
20 For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the
covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it. Isaiah 28:21
21 For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the
valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass
his act,  his strange  act. Isaiah 28:22
22 Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have
heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole
earth.
Isaiah 28:23
23 Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech. Isaiah 28:24
24 Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of
his ground?
Isaiah 28:25
25 When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the
fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the
appointed barley and the rie in their place? Isaiah 28:26
26 For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him. Isaiah
28:27
27 For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a
cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a
staff, and the cummin with a rod. Isaiah 28:28
28 Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break
it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen. Isaiah 28:29
29 This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is wonderful in
counsel, and excellent in working.
CHAPTER 29
Isaiah 29:1
1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! add ye year to year; let
them kill sacrifices.
Isaiah 29:2
2 Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it
shall be unto me as Ariel.
Isaiah 29:3
3 And I will camp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee
with a mount, and I will raise forts against thee. Isaiah 29:4
4 And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy
speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that
hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of
the dust.
Isaiah 29:5
5 Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the
multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it
shall be at an instant suddenly.
Isaiah 29:6
6 Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake,
and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
Isaiah 29:7
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that
fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream
of a night vision.
Isaiah 29:8
8 It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but
he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and,
behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul 
hath appetite:  so shall the multitude  of all the nations  be, that fight 
against mount  Zion.
Isaiah 29:9
9 Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not
with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. Isaiah 29:10
10 For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath
closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.
Isaiah 29:11
11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is
sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray
thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed: Isaiah 29:12
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I
pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned. Isaiah 29:13
13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their
mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from
me, and their fear toward me is taught  by the precept  of men: Isaiah 29:14
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people,
even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall
perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. Isaiah 29:15
15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their
works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us? Isaiah
29:16
16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's
clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the
thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?
Isaiah 29:17
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a
fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest? Isaiah
29:18
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of
the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness. Isaiah 29:19
19 The meek also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men
shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. Isaiah 29:20
20 For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed, and
all that watch for iniquity are cut off: Isaiah 29:21
21 That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that
reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought. Isaiah
29:22
22 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of
Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale.
Isaiah 29:23
23 But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the midst of him,
they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear
the God of Israel.
Isaiah 29:24
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that
murmured shall learn doctrine.
CHAPTER 30
Isaiah 30:1
1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of
me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin
to sin:
Isaiah 30:2
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to
strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of
Egypt!
Isaiah 30:3
3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the
shadow of Egypt your confusion. Isaiah 30:4
4 For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes. Isaiah 30:5
5 They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help
nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach. Isaiah 30:6
6 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish,
from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent,
they will carry  their riches  upon the shoulders  of young asses, and their
treasures  upon the bunches  of camels,  to a people  that shall not profit 
them.
Isaiah 30:7
7 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I
cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still. Isaiah 30:8
8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may
be for the time to come for ever and ever: Isaiah 30:9
9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear
the law of the LORD:
Isaiah 30:10
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us
right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits: Isaiah 30:11
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of
Israel to cease from before us.
Isaiah 30:12
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word,
and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon: Isaiah 30:13
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling
out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant. Isaiah 30:14
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken
in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting
of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take  water withal out of the
pit.
Isaiah 30:15
15 For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest
shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and
ye would not.
Isaiah 30:16
16 But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and,
We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
Isaiah 30:17
17 One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye
flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain,  and as an ensign
 on an hill.
Isaiah 30:18
18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and
therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is
a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him. Isaiah 30:19
19 For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he
will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it,
he will answer thee.
Isaiah 30:20
20 And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of
affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but
thine eyes shall see thy teachers: Isaiah 30:21
21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk
ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. Isaiah
30:22
22 Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the
ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a
menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence. Isaiah 30:23
23 Then shall he give the rain of thy seed, that thou shalt sow the ground
withal; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and
plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed  in large  pastures. Isaiah 30:24
24 The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the ground shall eat clean
provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan. Isaiah
30:25
25 And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill,
rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers
fall.
Isaiah 30:26
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the
light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day
that the LORD bindeth up  the breach  of his people,  and healeth  the stroke 
of their wound.
Isaiah 30:27
27 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and
the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue
as a devouring  fire:
Isaiah 30:28
28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the
neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle
in the jaws of the people, causing them to err. Isaiah 30:29
29 Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and
gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of
the LORD, to the mighty One  of Israel. Isaiah 30:30
30 And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the
lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame
of a devouring fire, with scattering,  and tempest,  and hailstones.
Isaiah 30:31
31 For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which
smote with a rod.
Isaiah 30:32
32 And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall
lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking
will he fight with it.
Isaiah 30:33
33 For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath
made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of
the LORD,  like a stream  of brimstone,  doth kindle  it.
