Isaiah

Chapter 17

1 The burden4853 of Damascus.1834 Behold,2009 Damascus1834 is taken5493 away5493 from being a city,5892 and it shall be a ruinous4654 heap.4596

2 The cities5892 of Aroer6177 are forsaken:5800 they shall be for flocks,5739 which shall lie7257 down,7257 and none369 shall make them afraid.2729

3 The fortress4013 also shall cease7673 from Ephraim,669 and the kingdom4467 from Damascus,1834 and the remnant7605 of Syria:758 they shall be as the glory3519 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 said5002 the LORD3068 of hosts.6635

4 And in that day3117 it shall come1961 to pass, that the glory3519 of Jacob3290 shall be made thin,1809 and the fatness4924 of his flesh1320 shall wax lean.7329

5 And it shall be as when the harvestman7105 gathers622 the corn,7054 and reaps7114 the ears7641 with his arm;2220 and it shall be as he that gathers3950 ears7641 in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

6 Yet gleaning5955 grapes shall be left7604 in it, as the shaking5363 of an olive2132 tree, two8147 or three7969 berries1620 in the top7218 of the uppermost bough,534 four702 or five2568 in the outmost fruitful6509 branches5585 thereof, said5002 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel.3478

7 At that day3117 shall a man120 look8159 to his Maker,6213 and his eyes5869 shall have respect7200 to the Holy6918 One of Israel.3478

8 And he shall not look8159 to the altars,4196 the work4639 of his hands,3027 neither3808 shall respect7200 that which834 his fingers676 have made,6213 either the groves,842 or the images.2553

9 In that day3117 shall his strong4581 cities5892 be as a forsaken5800 bough,2793 and an uppermost branch,534 which834 they left5800 because6440 of the children1121 of Israel:3478 and there shall be desolation.8077

10 Because3588 you have forgotten7911 the God430 of your salvation,3468 and have not been mindful2142 of the rock6697 of your strength,4581 therefore5921 3651 shall you plant5193 pleasant2532 plants,5194 and shall set2232 it with strange2114 slips:2156

11 In the day3117 shall you make your plant5194 to grow,7735 and in the morning1242 shall you make your seed2233 to flourish:6524 but the harvest7105 shall be a heap5067 in the day3117 of grief2470 and of desperate605 sorrow.3511

12 Woe1945 to the multitude1995 of many7227 people,5971 which make a noise1993 like the noise1993 of the seas;3220 and to the rushing7588 of nations,3816 that make a rushing7582 like the rushing7588 of mighty3524 waters!4325

13 The nations3816 shall rush7582 like the rushing7588 of many7227 waters:4325 but God shall rebuke1605 them, and they shall flee5127 far4801 off, and shall be chased7291 as the chaff4671 of the mountains2022 before6440 the wind,7307 and like a rolling1534 thing before6440 the whirlwind.5492

14 And behold2009 at evening6256 6153 trouble;1091 and before2962 the morning1242 he is not. This2088 is the portion2506 of them that spoil8154 us, and the lot1486 of them that rob962 us.

Isaiah

Chapter 17

1 THE prophecy concerning the fall of Damascus. Behold, Damascus shall cease to be a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.

2 The cities of Adoer shall be forsaken; they shall be for flocks which shall lie down in them, and none shall harm them.

3 The might also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Ephraim will be like the glory of the children of Israel, says the LORD of hosts.

4 And in that day it shall come to pass that the glory of Jacob shall wane, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.

5 And it shall be as when the reaper harvests standing sheaves, and gathers the ears in his arms; and it shall be as he that gathers ears in the valley of Rephaim.

6 Yet gleaning shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five on the outermost branches thereof, says the LORD God of Israel.

7 In that day a man shall trust in his Maker, and his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel.

8 And he shall not trust in the altars, the work of his hands and the work which his fingers have made, neither shall he look at the idols or the images.

9 In that day shall his strong cities be like a desolate well, and like an emirate which was left destitute before the children of Israel; so you will become a desolation.

10 Because you have forgotten the God your Saviour, and have not been mindful of the rock of your strength; therefore you shall plant pleasant plants and shall graft them with strange branches;

11 On the day that you plant them, they shall put forth blossoms, and in the morning your seed shall flourish, but the harvest shall be a ruin in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.

12 Woe to the armies of many people, which make a noise like the roaring of the seas! And to the rushing of nations, that rush like the rushing of mighty waters!

13 He shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off and shall be chased like the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like dry grass before the whirlwind.

14 And behold at eveningtide violence; and before the morning they are no more. This is the portion of our oppressor, and the lot of those who plunder us.
