Isaiah, Chapter 29

1 Add year to year,c Lit let your feasts run their roundobserve your feasts on schedule.
2 Woe, Oa I.e. Lion of God, or JerusalemAriel,b I.e. Lion of God, or JerusalemAriel the city where David once camped!
2 I will bring distress to Ariel,
And she will be a city of lamenting and mourning;
And she will be like an Ariel to me.
3 I will camp against youd Lit like a circleencircling you,
And I will set siegeworks against you,
And I will raise up battle towers against you.
4 Then you will be brought low;
From the earth you will speak,
And from the dust where you are prostrate
Your words will come.
Your voice will also be like that of ae Or ghostspirit from the ground,
And your speech will whisper from the dust.
5 But the multitude of yourf Lit strangersenemies will become like fine dust,
And the multitude of the ruthless ones like the chaff whichg Lit passes awayblows away;
And it will happen instantly, suddenly.
6 From the LORD of hosts you will be punished with thunder and earthquake and loud noise,
With whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a consuming fire.
7 And the multitude of all the nations who wage war againsth V 1, note 1Ariel,
Even all who wage war against her and her stronghold, and who distress her,
Will be like a dream, a vision of the night.
8 It will be as when a hungry man dreams—
And behold, he is eating;
But when he awakens, hisi Lit soulhunger is not satisfied,
Or as when a thirsty man dreams—
And behold, he is drinking,
But when he awakens, behold, he is faint
And hisj Lit soulthirst is not quenched.
Thus the multitude of all the nations will be
Who wage war against Mount Zion.
9 Be delayed and wait,
Blind yourselves and be blind;
They become drunk, but not with wine,
They stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 For the LORD has poured over you a spirit of deep sleep,
He has shut your eyes, the prophets;
And He has covered your heads, the seers.
11 The entire vision will be to you like the words of a sealedk Or scrollbook, which when they give it to the one whol Lit knows booksis literate, saying, “Please read this,” he will say, “I cannot, for it is sealed.” 12 Then them Or scrollbook will be given to the one whon Lit does not know booksis illiterate, saying, “Please read this.” And he will say, “Io Lit do not know bookscannot read.”
13 Then the Lord said,
“Because this people draw near with theirp Lit mouthwords
And honor Me with theirq Lit lipslip service,
But they remove their hearts far from Me,
And theirr Lit fear of Mereverence for Mes Lit isconsists oft Lit commandment of rulerstradition learned by rote,
14 Therefore behold, I will once again deal marvelously with this people, wondrously marvelous;
And the wisdom of their wise men will perish,
And the discernment of their discerning men will be concealed.”
15 Woe to those who deeply hide theiru Lit counselplans from the LORD,
And whose deeds are done in a dark place,
And they say, “Who sees us?” or “Who knows us?”
16 You turn things around!
Shall the potter be consideredv Lit likeas equal with the clay,
That what is made would say to its maker, “He did not make me”;
Or what is formed say to him who formed it, “He has no understanding”?
17 Is it not yet just a little while
w Lit AndBefore Lebanon will be turned into a fertile field,
And the fertile field will be considered as a forest?
18 On that day the deaf will hear words of a book,
And out of their gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see.
19 The afflicted also will increase their gladness in the LORD,
And the needy of mankind will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
20 For the ruthless will come to an end and the scorner will be finished,
Indeed all whox Lit watch evilare intent on doing evil will be cut off;
21 Whoy Lit bring a person under condemnationcause a person to be indicted by a word,
And ensnare him who adjudicates at the gate,
Andz Lit turn asidedefraud the one in the right withaa Lit confusionmeaningless arguments.
22 Therefore thus says the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob:
“Jacob shall not now be ashamed, nor shall his face now turn pale;
23 But whenab Or his children seehe sees his children, the work of My hands, in his midst,
They will sanctify My name;
Indeed, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob
And will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
