Jesiah

Head 1

 * 1) This is the sight that Isaiah, son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem at the time of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah.


 * 1) Hear, sky, and listen, earth! YHWH has spoken, “I raised my children and helped them grow,but they have risen against me.


 * 1) Oxen know their owners, and donkeys know where their food is. But Israel doesn’t know. My folks don't understand.


 * 1) “O sinful leedship, folk with an heavy load of guilt. They are offspring of evildoers, children adrilling yourselves. You have forsaken YHWH, loathed the Holy One of Israel, and wended your backs on Him.


 * 1) “Why do you still want to be beaten? Why do you simble to go astray? Your whole head is sick. Your whole heart is ill.


 * 1) From the bottom of your feet to the top of your head there is no healthy spot left on your body—only cuts, bruises, and fresh wounds. They haven’t been cleansed, bound, or soothed with oil.


 * 1) “Your land is a barren waste. Your chesters are burned down. Your fields are fordone right before your eyes by outlanders. So it is a barren waste, a land fordone by outlanders.


 * 1) Zion's daughter is left like an hut in a vineyard, like a shack in an earthapple field, like a town under siege.


 * 1) "If YHWH Drighten hadn’t left us a few outlasters, we would have become like Sodom and Gomorrah.


 * 1) Hear what YHWH says, you rulers of Sodom! Listen to the teachings of our God, you burghers of Gomorrah!


 * 1) “What do your many wight-bloots mean to me?" asks YHWH. I’ve had enough of your burnt agivings of rams and enough fat from your fattened calves. I’m not quemed with the blood of bulls, lambs, or he-goats.


 * 1) When you come up to Me, who asked you to trample on My hallyards?


 * 1) Don’t bring any more worthless grain agivings. I hate your holysmokes, your New Moon Frols, your days of worship, and the gatherings you call. I can’t stand your evil meetings.


 * 1) I hate your New Moon Frols and your andays. They’ve become a burden to me, and I’m tired of putting up with them.


 * 1) So when you stretch out your hands in bead, I will shut my eyes so I won't see you. Even when you bid a lot,I will not listen since your hands are drenched in blood.


 * 1) “Wash! Become clean! Get your evil doings out of My sight. Stop doing evil.


 * 1) Learn to do good. Seek fairness. Arrest downtrodders. Bestand the fatherless. Forething on behalf of widows.


 * 1) “Come on now, let’s talk about this!” says YHWH. “Though your sins are bright red, they will become as white as snow. Though they are dark red,they will become as white as wool.


 * 1) If you are willing and hearsome, you will eat the best from the land.


 * 1) But if you naysay and uprise, you will be foredone by swords.” YHWH has spoken.


 * Oh, how the trusty town has become a hooker! Once her deemhalls were fair, and rightness lived there. But now: murderers!


 * 1) Your silver is not sheer. Your wine is watered down.


 * 1) Your rulers are atspurners, friends with thieves. They all love buy-offs and run after gifts. They never bestand the fatherless. They don’t hear the widows’ inthings.


 * 1) That’s why YHWH Drighten, the Mighty One of Israel, says, “I will get pay-back on My foes! I will bewreak My fiends.


 * 1) I will lay My hand against you. I will get rid of all your spots with bleach. I will take away all your dross.


 * 1) I will give you deemers like you had long ago, reeders like you had in the beginning. After that you will be called Rightwisburgh and Trustown.”


 * 1) Zion will be burged by YHWH's fairness, and those who wend back will be forgiven by YHWH's rightwisness.


 * 1) Atspurners and sinners will be crushed at the same time, and those who forsake YHWH will come to an end.


 * 1) You will be ashamed of the oaks that you wanted to worship and blush for the garden shrines you chose.


 * 1) You will be like an oak whose leaves wither and like a garden without water.


 * 1) Strong folks will become tinder for a fire, and their work will be the spark. Both will burn together, and there will be no one to put out the fire.

Head 2

 * 1) This is what Isaiah, son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem.


 * 1) In the last days the hill of YHWH’s house will be set up at the top of the hills and raised above the dunes. All the leedships will stream to it.


 * 1) Then many will come and say, “Let’s go to YHWH's hill, to the house of the God of Jacob. And He will teach us His ways so that we can live by them.” The teachings will go out from Zion. YHWH's Word will go out from Jerusalem.


 * 1) Then he will deem between the leedships and choose for many folks. They will hammer their swords into plowblades and their spears into pruning shears. Leedships will never fight against each other, and they will never arready for war again.


 * 1) Come, Jacoblings, let’s live in the light of YHWH.


 * 1) But You have forsaken Your folk, the seeds of Jacob, for they are filled with Eastern sway. They are galderers like the Philisters, and they make deals with outlanders.


 * 1) Their land is filled with silver and gold, and there is no end to their hordes. Their land is filled with horses, and there is no end to their wagons.


 * 1) Their land is filled with falsegods, and they worship what their hands have made and what their fingers have shopen.


 * 1) So when someone bows down and a weres bemeek themselves, you should not forgive them.


 * 1) Go in among the rocks and hide underground from dread of YHWH and the wulder of His drightness.


 * 1) Overproud folks will be made meek. High and mighty folks will be brought down. On that day YHWH only will be worshipped.


 * 1) YHWH Drighten will have His day against all who are high and overproud, against all who lift themselves upagainst all the towering and mighty cedars of Lebanon and all the oaks of Bashan,


 * 1) against all the high dunes and all the lofty hills,


 * 1) against every high steeple and every afasted wall,


 * 1) against all the great ships of Tarshish and all the sheenful boats.


 * 1) Then the overproud will be brought down,and high and mighty folks will be made meek. On that day YHWH only will be worshipped.


 * 1) Then falsegods will awerthe fully.


 * 1) Folks will go into caves in the rocks and into holes in the ground to get away from YHWH’s dread and the wulder of His Drightness when he rises to dreaden the earth.


 * 1) On that day folks will throw to the moles and the bats the silver and gold falsegods that they made for themselves to worship.


 * 1) They will go into caves in the rocks and into cracks in the cliffs to get away from YHWH’s dread and the wulder of His Drightness when he rises to dreaden the earth.


 * 1) Stop trusting wer. Its life is in its nostrils.How can it be worth anything?
