Gottes Neue Offenbarungen

The Book of the Prophet Isaiah

Literal Standard Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 32 -

1
Behold, a king reigns for righteousness, || As for princes, they rule for judgment.
2
And each has been as a hiding place [from] wind, || And as a secret hiding place [from] inundation, || As streams of waters in a dry place, || As a shadow of a heavy rock in a weary land.
3
And the eyes of beholders are not dazzled, || And the ears of hearers attend.
4
And the heart of those hurried understands to know, || And the tongue of stammerers hurries to speak clearly.
5
A fool is no more callednoble,” || And to a miser it is not said, “rich”;
6
For a fool speaks folly, || And his heart does iniquity, to do profanity, || And to speak error concerning YHWH, || To empty the soul of the hungry, || Indeed, he causes the thirsty to lack [their] drink.
7
And the miser—his instruments [are] evil, || He has counseled wicked schemes, || To corrupt the poor with lying sayings, || Even when the needy speaks justly.
8
And the noble counseled noble things, || And he rises up for noble things.

The Women of Jerusalem

9
Women, easy ones, rise, hear my voice, || Daughters, confident ones, give ear [to] my saying,
10
In days and a year || You are troubled, O confident ones, || For harvest has been consumed, || The gathering does not come.
11
Tremble, you women, you easy ones, || Be troubled, you confident ones, || Strip and make bare, with a girdle on the loins,
12
They are lamenting for breasts, || For fields of desire, for the fruitful vine.
13
Over the ground of my people thorn [and] brier go up, || Surely over all houses of joy of the exulting city,
14
The palace has been left, || The multitude of the city forsaken, || Fort and watchtower have been for dens for all time, || A joy of wild donkeysa pasture of herds;
15
Until the Spirit is emptied out on us from on high, || And a wilderness has become a fruitful field, || And the fruitful field is reckoned for a forest.
16
And judgment has dwelt in the wilderness, || And righteousness remains in the fruitful field.
17
And a work of the righteousness has been peace, || And a service of the righteousness—Keeping quiet and confidence for all time.
18
And My people have dwelt in a peaceful habitation, || And in steadfast dwelling places, || And in quiet resting places.
19
And it has hailed in the going down of the forest, || And the city is low in the valley.
20
Blessed [are] you sowing by all waters, || Sending forth the foot of the ox and the donkey!
1
Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice.
2
A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the storm, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a large rock in a weary land.
3
The eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will listen.
4
The heart of the rash will understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.
5
The fool will no longer be called noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
6
For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice profanity, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
7
The ways of the scoundrel are evil. He devises wicked plans to destroy the humble with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
8
But the noble devises noble things, and he will continue in noble things.

The Women of Jerusalem

9
Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my voice! You careless daughters, give ear to my speech!
10
For days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless women; for the vintage will fail. The harvest won’t come.
11
Tremble, you women who are at ease! Be troubled, you careless ones! Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked, and put sackcloth on your waist.
12
Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
13
Thorns and briers will come up on my people’s land; yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.
14
For the palace will be forsaken. The populous city will be deserted. The hill and the watchtower will be for dens forever, a delight for wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks,
15
until the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered a forest.
16
Then justice will dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.
17
The work of righteousness will be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
18
My people will live in a peaceful habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting places,
19
though hail flattens the forest, and the city is leveled completely.
20
Blessed are you who sow beside all waters, who send out the feet of the ox and the donkey.
