ISA-45:9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! [Let] the

potsherd [strive] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the

clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy

work, He hath no hands? <clay> <earth> <fashioneth> <hands>

ISA-45:10 Woe unto him that saith unto [his] father, What

begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?

ISA-45:11 Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his

Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and

concerning the work of my hands command ye me. <ask> <come>

ISA-45:12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it:I,

[even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their

host have I commanded. <all> <commanded> <created> <earth>

ISA-45:13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will

direct all his ways:he shall build my city, and he shall let go

my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts.

ISA-45:14 Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and

merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature,

shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine:they shall

come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall

fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee,

[saying] , Surely God [is] in thee; and [there is] none else,

[there is] no God. <after> <chains> <come> <down> <egypt> <else>

ISA-45:15 Verily thou [art] a God that hidest thyself, O God of

Israel, the Saviour. <art> <god> <hidest> <israel> <saviour>

ISA-45:16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of

them:they shall go to confusion together [that are] makers of

idols. <all> <also> <are> <ashamed> <confounded> <confusion>

ISA-45:17 [But] Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an

everlasting salvation:ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded

world without end. <ashamed> <confounded> <end> <everlasting>

<world>

ISA-45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God

himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established

it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited:I

[am] the LORD; and [there is] none else. <created> <earth>

ISA-45:19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the

earth:I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain:I

the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

ISA-45:20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye

[that are] escaped of the nations:they have no knowledge that

set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god

[that] cannot save. <are> <assemble> <cannot> <come> <draw>

ISA-45:21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yea, let them take

counsel together:who hath declared this from ancient time? [who]

hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there

is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is]

none beside me. <ancient> <beside> <bring> <counsel> <declared>

ISA-45:22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the

earth:for I [am] God, and [there is] none else. <all> <earth>

ISA-45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my

mouth [in] righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me

every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. <bow> <every>

ISA-45:24 Surely, shall [one] say, in the LORD have I

righteousness and strength:[even] to him shall [men] come; and

all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed. <against>

ISA-45:25 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified,

and shall glory. <all> <glory> <israel> <justified> <lord> <seed>

ISA-46:1 Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon

the beasts, and upon the cattle:your carriages [were] heavy

loaden; [they are] a burden to the weary [beast] . <are> <beast>

ISA-46:2 They stoop, they bow down together; they could not

deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.

ISA-46:3 Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant

of the house of Israel, which are borne [by me] from the belly,

which are carried from the womb:<all> <are> <belly> <borne>

<womb>

ISA-46:4 And [even] to [your] old age I [am] he; and [even] to

hoar hairs will I carry [you] :I have made, and I will bear;

even I will carry, and will deliver [you] . <age> <bear> <carry>

ISA-46:5 To whom will ye liken me, and make [me] equal, and

compare me, that we may be like? <compare> <equal> <like>

ISA-46:6 They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in

the balance, [and] hire a goldsmith; and he maketh it a god:they

fall down, yea, they worship. <bag> <balance> <down> <fall>

ISA-46:7 They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and

set him in his place, and he standeth; from his place shall he

not remove:yea, [one] shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer,

nor save him out of his trouble. <answer> <bear> <can> <carry>

ISA-46:8 Remember this, and show yourselves men:bring [it] again

to mind, O ye transgressors. <again> <bring> <men> <mind>

ISA-46:9 Remember the former things of old:for I [am] God, and

[there is] none else; [I am] God, and [there is] none like me,

ISA-46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient

times [the things] that are not [yet] done, saying, My counsel

shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:<all> <ancient> <are>

ISA-46:11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that

executeth my counsel from a far country:yea, I have spoken [it] ,

I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed [it] , I will

also do it. <also> <bird> <bring> <calling> <counsel> <country>

ISA-46:12 Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that [are] far from

righteousness:<are> <far> <hearken> <righteousness>

ISA-46:13 I bring near my righteousness:it shall not be far off,

and my salvation shall not tarry:and I will place salvation in

Zion for Israel my glory. <bring> <far> <glory> <israel> <near>

ISA-47:1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of

Babylon, sit on the ground:[there is] no throne, O daughter of

the Chaldeans:for thou shalt no more be called tender and

delicate. <babylon> <called> <chaldeans> <come> <daughter>

ISA-47:2 Take the millstones, and grind meal:uncover thy locks,

make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.

ISA-47:3 Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall

be seen:I will take vengeance, and I will not meet [thee as] a

man. <man> <meet> <nakedness> <seen> <shame> <take> <uncovered>

ISA-47:4 [As for] our redeemer, the LORD of hosts [is] his name,

the Holy One of Israel. <holy> <hosts> <israel> <lord> <name>

ISA-47:5 Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter

of the Chaldeans:for thou shalt no more be called, The lady of

kingdoms. <called> <chaldeans> <darkness> <daughter> <get>

ISA-47:6 I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine

inheritance, and given them into thine hand:thou didst show them

no mercy; upon the ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke.

ISA-47:7 And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever:[so] that

thou didst not lay these [things] to thy heart, neither didst

remember the latter end of it. <didst> <end> <ever> <heart>

ISA-47:8 Therefore hear now this, [thou that art] given to

pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart,

I [am] , and none else beside me; I shall not sit [as] a widow,

neither shall I know the loss of children:<art> <beside>

ISA-47:9 But these two [things] shall come to thee in a moment

in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood:they shall come

upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries,

[and] for the great abundance of thine enchantments. <children>

ISA-47:10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness:thou hast said,

None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted

thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I [am] , and none else

beside me. <beside> <else> <hast> <hath> <heart> <knowledge>

ISA-47:11 Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not

know from whence it riseth:and mischief shall fall upon thee;

thou shalt not be able to put it off:and desolation shall come

upon thee suddenly, [which] thou shalt not know. <come>

ISA-47:12 Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the

multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy

youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou

mayest prevail. <enchantments> <hast> <laboured> <mayest>

ISA-47:13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let

now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators,

stand up, and save thee from [these things] that shall come

upon thee. <art> <astrologers> <come> <counsels> <let> <monthly>

ISA-47:14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn

them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the

flame:[there shall] not [be] a coal to warm at, [nor] fire to

sit before it. <before> <behold> <burn> <coal> <deliver> <fire>

ISA-47:15 Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast

laboured, [even] thy merchants, from thy youth:they shall wander

every one to his quarter; none shall save thee. <even> <every>

ISA-48:1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the

name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah,

which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God

of Israel, [but] not in truth, nor in righteousness. <are>

ISA-48:2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay

themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts [is] his

name. <call> <city> <god> <holy> <hosts> <israel> <lord> <name>

ISA-48:3 I have declared the former things from the beginning;

and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them; I did

[them] suddenly, and they came to pass. <beginning> <came>

ISA-48:4 Because I knew that thou [art] obstinate, and thy neck

[is] an iron sinew, and thy brow brass; <art> <because> <brass>

ISA-48:5 I have even from the beginning declared [it] to thee;

before it came to pass I showed [it] thee:lest thou shouldest

say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my

molten image, hath commanded them. <before> <beginning> <came>

ISA-48:6 Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare

[it] ? I have showed thee new things from this time, even hidden

things, and thou didst not know them. <all> <declare> <didst>

ISA-48:7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even

before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest

say, Behold, I knew them. <are> <before> <beginning> <behold>

ISA-48:8 Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea,

from that time [that] thine ear was not opened:for I knew that

thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a

transgressor from the womb. <called> <deal> <ear> <heardest>

ISA-48:9 For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my

praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. <anger>

ISA-48:10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I

have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. <affliction>

ISA-48:11 For mine own sake, [even] for mine own sake, will I do

[it] :for how should [my name] be polluted? and I will not give

my glory unto another. <another> <do> <even> <give> <glory>

ISA-48:12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I [am]

he; I [am] the first, I also [am] the last. <also> <called>

ISA-48:13 Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth,

and my right hand hath spanned the heavens:[when] I call unto

them, they stand up together. <also> <call> <earth> <foundation>

ISA-48:14 All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among

them hath declared these [things] ? The LORD hath loved him:he

will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm [shall be on] the

Chaldeans. <all> <among> <arm> <assemble> <babylon> <chaldeans>

ISA-48:15 I, [even] I, have spoken; yea, I have called him:I

have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.

ISA-48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken

in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there

[am] I:and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

ISA-48:17 Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of

Israel; I [am] the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit,

which leadeth thee by the way [that] thou shouldest go. <go>

ISA-48:18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then

had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the

waves of the sea:<been> <commandments> <had> <hadst> <hearkened>

ISA-48:19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring

of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have

been cut off nor destroyed from before me. <also> <been>

ISA-48:20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans,

with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it [even]

to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his

servant Jacob. <babylon> <chaldeans> <declare> <earth> <end>

ISA-48:21 And they thirsted not [when] he led them through the

deserts:he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them:he

clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out. <also> <caused>

ISA-48:22 [There is] no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.

ISA-49:1 Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from

far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of

my mother hath he made mention of my name. <bowels> <called>

ISA-49:2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the

shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft;

in his quiver hath he hid me; <hand> <hath> <hid> <like> <made>

ISA-49:3 And said unto me, Thou [art] my servant, O Israel, in

whom I will be glorified. <art> <glorified> <israel> <said>

ISA-49:4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my

strength for nought, and in vain:[yet] surely my judgment [is]

with the LORD, and my work with my God. <god> <have> <judgment>

ISA-49:5 And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb

[to be] his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel

be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD,

and my God shall be my strength. <again> <bring> <eyes>

ISA-49:6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be

my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the

preserved of Israel:I will also give thee for a light to the

Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the

earth. <also> <earth> <end> <gentiles> <give> <israel> <jacob>

ISA-49:7 Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, [and] his

Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation

abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise,

princes also shall worship, because of the LORD that is faithful,

[and] the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee. <also>

ISA-49:8 Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard

thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee:and I will

preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to

establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;

ISA-49:9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to

them that [are] in darkness, Show yourselves. They shall feed in

the ways, and their pastures [shall be] in all high places.

ISA-49:10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the

heat nor sun smite them:for he that hath mercy on them shall

lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.

ISA-49:11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my

highways shall be exalted. <all> <exalted> <highways> <make>

ISA-49:12 Behold, these shall come from far:and, lo, these from

the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

ISA-49:13 Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break

forth into singing, O mountains:for the LORD hath comforted his

people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. <afflicted>

ISA-49:14 But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord

hath forgotten me. <forgotten> <forsaken> <hath> <lord> <said>

<zion>

ISA-49:15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should

not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget,

yet will I not forget thee. <can> <child> <compassion> <forget>

ISA-49:16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of [my]

hands; thy walls [are] continually before me. <are> <before>

ISA-49:17 Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they

that made thee waste shall go forth of thee. <children>

ISA-49:18 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold:all these

gather themselves together, [and] come to thee. [As] I live,

saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as

with an ornament, and bind them [on thee] , as a bride [doeth] .

ISA-49:19 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of

thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the

inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.

ISA-49:20 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast

lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place [is]

too strait for me:give place to me that I may dwell. <after>

ISA-49:21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten

me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a

captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these?

Behold, I was left alone; these, where [had] they [been] ?

<who>

ISA-49:22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine

hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people:and

they shall bring thy sons in [their] arms, and thy daughters

shall be carried upon [their] shoulders. <arms> <behold> <bring>

ISA-49:23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their

queens thy nursing mothers:they shall bow down to thee with

[their] face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet;

and thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD:for they shall not be

ashamed that wait for me. <ashamed> <bow> <down> <dust> <earth>

ISA-49:24 Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful

captive delivered? <captive> <delivered> <lawful> <mighty> <or>

ISA-49:25 But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the

mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall

be delivered:for I will contend with him that contendeth with

thee, and I will save thy children. <away> <captives> <children>

ISA-49:26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own

flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with

sweet wine:and all flesh shall know that I the LORD [am] thy

Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. <all> <blood>

ISA-50:1 Thus saith the LORD, Where [is] the bill of your

mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my

creditors [is it] to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your

iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions

is your mother put away. <away> <behold> <bill> <creditors>

ISA-50:2 Wherefore, when I came, [was there] no man? when I

called, [was there] none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all,

that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at

my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness:their

fish stinketh, because [there is] no water, and dieth for thirst.

ISA-50:3 I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make

sackcloth their covering. <blackness> <clothe> <covering>

ISA-50:4 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned,

that I should know how to speak a word in season to [him that

is] weary:he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear

to hear as the learned. <ear> <given> <god> <hath> <hear> <him>

ISA-50:5 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not

rebellious, neither turned away back. <away> <back> <ear> <god>

ISA-50:6 I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them

that plucked off the hair:I hid not my face from shame and

spitting. <back> <cheeks> <face> <gave> <hair> <hid> <off>

ISA-50:7 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be

confounded:therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know

that I shall not be ashamed. <ashamed> <confounded> <face>

ISA-50:8 [He is] near that justifieth me; who will contend with

me? let us stand together:who [is] mine adversary? let him come

near to me. <adversary> <come> <contend> <him> <justifieth>

ISA-50:9 Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who [is] he [that]

shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the

moth shall eat them up. <all> <behold> <condemn> <eat> <garment>

ISA-50:10 Who [is] among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth

the voice of his servant, that walketh [in] darkness, and hath

no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon

his God. <among> <darkness> <feareth> <god> <hath> <him> <let>

ISA-50:11 Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass

[yourselves] about with sparks:walk in the light of your fire,

and in the sparks [that] ye have kindled. This shall ye have of

mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow. <all> <behold> <compass>

ISA-51:1 Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye

that seek the LORD:look unto the rock [whence] ye are hewn, and

to the hole of the pit [whence] ye are digged. <after> <are>

ISA-51:2 Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah [that]

bare you:for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased

him. <alone> <bare> <blessed> <called> <father> <him>

ISA-51:3 For the LORD shall comfort Zion:he will comfort all her

waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her

desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be

found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody. <all>

ISA-51:4 Hearken unto me, my people; and give ear unto me, O my

nation:for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my

judgment to rest for a light of the people. <ear> <give>

ISA-51:5 My righteousness [is] near; my salvation is gone forth,

and mine arms shall judge the people; the isles shall wait upon

me, and on mine arm shall they trust. <arm> <arms> <forth>

ISA-51:6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the

earth beneath:for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and

the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell

therein shall die in like manner:but my salvation shall be for

ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished. <away>

ISA-51:7 Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people

in whose heart [is] my law; fear ye not the reproach of men,

neither be ye afraid of their revilings. <afraid> <fear>

ISA-51:8 For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the

worm shall eat them like wool:but my righteousness shall be for

ever, and my salvation from generation to generation. <eat>

ISA-51:9 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake,

as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. [Art] thou

not it that hath cut Rahab, [and] wounded the dragon? <ancient>

ISA-51:10 [Art] thou not it which hath dried the sea, the waters

of the great deep; that hath made the depths of the sea a way

for the ransomed to pass over? <art> <deep> <depths> <dried>

ISA-51:11 Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and

come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy [shall be] upon

their head:they shall obtain gladness and joy; [and] sorrow and

mourning shall flee away. <away> <come> <everlasting> <flee>

ISA-51:12 I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth you:who [art]

thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man [that] shall die,

and of the son of man [which] shall be made [as] grass; <afraid>

ISA-51:13 And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched

forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and

hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the

oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where [is] the

fury of the oppressor? <because> <continually> <day> <destroy>

ISA-51:14 The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed, and

that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should

fail. <bread> <captive> <die> <exile> <fail> <hasteneth>

ISA-51:15 But I [am] the LORD thy God, that divided the sea,

whose waves roared:The LORD of hosts [is] his name. <divided>

ISA-51:16 And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have

covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the

heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion,

Thou [art] my people. <art> <covered> <earth> <foundations>
