Isaiah
Chapter 9
KJV · Textus Receptus
Nevertheless thedimness shall not be such as was in hervexation,when at thefirst he lightlyafflicted theland ofZebulun and theland ofNaphtali, andafterward did more grievouslyafflict her by theway of thesea,beyondJordan, inGalilee of the nations.
2 Thepeople thatwalked indarkness haveseen agreatlight: they thatdwell in theland of the shadow ofdeath, upon them hath thelight shined.
3 Thou hastmultiplied thenation, and notincreased thejoy: theyjoybefore thee according to thejoy inharvest, and as menrejoice when theydivide the spoil.
4 For thou hastbroken theyoke of hisburden, and thestaff of hisshoulder, therod of hisoppressor, as in theday of Midian.
5 For everybattle of thewarrior is with confusednoise, andgarmentsrolled inblood; but this shall be withburning andfuel of fire.
6 For unto us achild isborn, unto us ason isgiven: and thegovernment shall be upon hisshoulder: and hisname shall becalledWonderful,Counsellor, ThemightyGod, TheeverlastingFather, ThePrince of Peace.
7 Of theincrease of hisgovernment andpeace there shall be noend, upon thethrone ofDavid, and upon hiskingdom, toorder it, and toestablish it withjudgment and withjustice from henceforth evenforever. Thezeal of theLORD ofhosts will perform this.
8 TheLordsent aword intoJacob, and it hathlighted upon Israel.
9 And all thepeople shallknow, evenEphraim and theinhabitant ofSamaria, thatsay in thepride andstoutness of heart,
10 Thebricks are fallendown, but we willbuild with hewnstones: thesycomores are cutdown, but we willchange them into cedars.
12 TheSyriansbefore, and thePhilistinesbehind; and they shalldevourIsrael with openmouth. For all this hisanger is not turnedaway, but hishand is stretched out still.
13 For thepeopleturneth not unto him thatsmiteth them, neither do theyseek theLORD of hosts.
14 Therefore theLORD will cutoff fromIsraelhead andtail,branch andrush, inone day.
15 Theancient andhonourable,he is thehead; and theprophet thatteachethlies, he is the tail.
16 For theleaders of thispeople cause them toerr; and they that areled of them are destroyed.
17 Therefore theLord shall have nojoy in their youngmen, neither shall havemercy on theirfatherless andwidows: for every one is anhypocrite and anevildoer, and everymouthspeakethfolly. For all this hisanger is not turnedaway, but hishand is stretched out still.
18 Forwickednessburneth as thefire: it shalldevour thebriers andthorns, and shallkindle in thethickets of theforest, and they shall mountup like the liftingup of smoke.
19 Through thewrath of theLORD ofhosts is thelanddarkened, and thepeople shall be as thefuel of thefire: noman shallspare his brother.
20 And he shallsnatch on the righthand, and behungry; and he shalleat on the lefthand, and they shall not besatisfied: they shalleat everyman theflesh of his own arm:
21Manasseh,Ephraim; andEphraim,Manasseh: and theytogether shall be againstJudah. For all this hisanger is not turnedaway, but hishand is stretched out still.
