Book of Isaiah
|
Chapter 29 |
1 | Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where
David dwelt! add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices. |
2 | Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall
be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
9 |
Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not
with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. |
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.
Rom 11:8
|
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: |
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. |
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:
Mt 15:8,9
Mark 7:6,7
|
14 | Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a
marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder:
1for the wisdom of their wise men shall
perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

1st Cor 1:19
| 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? |
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?
Rom 9:20
|
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? | 18 | And in
that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the
1blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.

Isa 35:5
Matt 11:5
|
19 | The meek also shall increase their joy in
the LORD, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of
Israel. |
20
| For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is
consumed, and all that watch for iniquity are cut off: | 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. |
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. |
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. |
24 | They also that erred in spirit shall come
to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine. |
Isaiah 30
