Isaiah 28 Woe to the crown of pride , to the drunkards of Ephraim , whose glorious beauty is a fading flower , who are on the head of the rich valleys of them that are overcome with wine!

Webster_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 H1945 Woe H5850 to the crown H1348 of pride H7910 , to the drunkards H669 of Ephraim H6643 , whose glorious H8597 beauty H5034 [H8802] is a fading H6731 flower H7218 , who are on the head H8081 of the rich H1516 valleys H1986 [H8803] of them that are overcome H3196 with wine!

2 H136 Behold, the Lord H2389 hath a mighty H533 and strong one H2230 , who as a tempest H1259 of hail H6986 and a destroying H8178 storm H2230 , as a flood H3524 of mighty H4325 waters H7857 [H8802] overflowing H3240 [H8689] , shall cast down H776 to the earth H3027 with the hand.

3 H5850 The crown H1348 of pride H7910 , the drunkards H669 of Ephraim H7429 [H8735] , shall be trodden H7272 under feet:

4 H6643 And the glorious H8597 beauty H7218 , which is on the head H8081 of the rich H1516 valley H5034 [H8802] , shall be a fading H6733 flower H1061 , and as the early fruit H7019 before the summer H7200 [H8802] ; which when he that looketh H7200 [H8799] upon it seeth H3709 , while it is yet in his hand H1104 [H8799] he eateth it up.

5 H3117 In that day H3068 shall the LORD H6635 of hosts H5850 be for a crown H6643 of glory H6843 , and for a diadem H8597 of beauty H7605 , to the remnant H5971 of his people,

6 H7307 And for a spirit H4941 of judgment H3427 [H8802] to him that sitteth H4941 in judgment H1369 , and for strength H7725 [H8688] to them that turn H4421 the battle H8179 to the gate.

7 H428 But they H7686 [H8804] also have erred H3196 through wine H7941 , and through strong drink H8582 [H8804] are out of the way H3548 ; the priest H5030 and the prophet H7686 [H8804] have erred H7941 through strong drink H1104 [H8738] , they are overwhelmed H4480 with H3196 wine H8582 [H8804] , they are out of the way H7941 through strong drink H7686 [H8804] ; they err H7203 in vision H6328 [H8804] , they stumble H6417 in judgment.

8 H7979 For all tables H4390 [H8804] are full H6892 of vomit H6675 and filthiness H4725 , so that there is no place clean.

9 H3384 [H8686] Whom shall he teach H1844 knowledge H995 [H8799] ? and whom shall he make to understand H8052 doctrine H1580 [H8803] ? them that are weaned H2461 from the milk H6267 , and drawn H7699 from the breasts.

10 H6673 For precept H6673 must be upon precept H6673 , precept H6673 upon precept H6957 ; line H6957 upon line H6957 , line H6957 upon line H2191 ; here a little H2191 , and there a little:

11 H3934 For with stammering H8193 lips H312 and another H3956 tongue H1696 [H8762] will he speak H5971 to this people.

12 H559 [H8804] To whom he said H4496 , This is the rest H5889 which ye may cause the weary H5117 [H8685] to rest H4774 ; and this is the refreshing H14 [H8804] : yet they would H8085 [H8800] not hear.

13 H1697 But the word H3068 of the LORD H6673 was to them precept H6673 upon precept H6673 , precept H6673 upon precept H6957 ; line H6957 upon line H6957 , line H6957 upon line H2191 ; here a little H2191 , and there a little H3212 [H8799] ; that they might go H3782 [H8804] , and fall H268 backward H7665 [H8738] , and be broken H3369 [H8738] , and snared H3920 [H8738] , and taken.

14 H8085 [H8798] Therefore hear H1697 the word H3068 of the LORD H3944 , ye scornful H582 men H4910 [H8802] , that rule H5971 this people H3389 who are in Jerusalem.

15 H559 [H8804] Because ye have said H3772 [H8804] , We have made H1285 a covenant H4194 with death H7585 , and with hell H6213 [H8804] are we H2374 in agreement H7857 [H8802] ; when the overflowing H7752 H7885 [H8675] scourge H5674 H5674 [H8799] shall pass through H935 [H8799] , it shall not reach H7760 [H8804] us: for we have made H3577 lies H4268 our refuge H8267 , and under falsehood H5641 [H8738] have we hid ourselves:

16 H559 [H8804] Therefore thus saith H136 the Lord H3069 GOD H3245 [H8765] , Behold, I lay H6726 in Zion H68 for a foundation a stone H976 , a tried H68 stone H3368 , a precious H6438 corner H3245 [H8716] stone, a sure H4143 foundation H539 [H8688] : he that believeth H2363 [H8686] shall not make haste.

17 H4941 Judgment H7760 [H8804] also will I lay H6957 to the line H6666 , and righteousness H4949 to the plummet H1259 : and the hail H3261 [H8804] shall sweep away H4268 the refuge H3577 of lies H4325 , and the waters H7857 [H8799] shall overflow H5643 the hiding place.

18 H1285 And your covenant H4194 with death H3722 [H8795] shall be broken H2380 , and your agreement H7585 with hell H6965 [H8799] shall not stand H7857 [H8802] ; when the overflowing H7752 scourge H5674 [H8799] shall pass through H4823 , then ye shall be trodden down by it.

19 H1767 From the time H5674 [H8800] that it goeth forth H3947 [H8799] it shall take H1242 you: for morning H1242 by morning H5674 [H8799] shall it pass over H3117 , by day H3915 and by night H2113 : and it shall be a vexation H995 [H8687] only to understand H8052 the report.

20 H4702 For the bed H7114 [H8804] is shorter H8311 [H8692] than that a man can stretch H4541 himself on it: and the covering H6887 [H8804] narrower H3664 [H8692] than that he can wrap himself in it.

21 H3068 For the LORD H6965 [H8799] shall rise H2022 as on mount H6559 Perazim H7264 [H8799] , he shall be angry H6010 as in the valley H1391 of Gibeon H6213 [H8800] , that he may do H4639 his work H2114 [H8801] , his strange H4639 work H5647 [H8800] ; and bring to pass H5656 his act H5237 , his strange H5656 act.

22 H3887 [H8698] Now therefore be ye not mockers H4147 , lest your bands H2388 [H8799] be made strong H8085 [H8804] : for I have heard H136 from the Lord H3069 GOD H6635 of hosts H3617 a destruction H2782 [H8737] , even determined H776 upon the whole earth.

23 H238 [H8685] Give ye ear H8085 [H8798] , and hear H6963 my voice H7181 [H8685] ; hearken H8085 [H8798] , and hear H565 my speech.

24 H2790 [H8802] Doth the plowman H2790 [H8799] plow H3117 all day H2232 [H8800] to sow H6605 [H8762] ? doth he open H7702 [H8762] and break the clods H127 of his ground?

25 H7737 [H8765] When he hath made even H6440 the face H6327 [H8689] of it, doth he not cast abroad H7100 the black cummin H2236 [H8799] , and scatter H3646 the cummin H7760 [H8804] , and cast H2406 in the wheat H7795 in rows H5567 [H8737] and the appointed H8184 barley H3698 and the rye H1367 in their place?

26 H430 For his God H3256 [H8765] doth instruct H4941 him to discretion H3384 [H8686] , and doth teach him.

27 H7100 For the black cummin H1758 [H8714] are not threshed H2742 with a threshing instrument H5699 , neither is a cart H212 wheel H5437 [H8714] turned about H3646 upon the cummin H7100 ; but the black cummin H2251 [H8735] are beaten out H4294 with a staff H3646 , and the cummin H7626 with a rod.

28 H3899 Bread H1854 [H8714] grain is ground H5331 ; because he will not always H156 H1758 [H8800] be threshing H2000 [H8804] it, nor break H1536 it with the wheel H5699 of his cart H1854 [H8799] , nor grind H6571 it with his horsemen.

29 H3318 [H8804] This also cometh forth H3068 from the LORD H6635 of hosts H6381 [H8689] , who is wonderful H6098 in counsel H1431 [H8689] , and excellent H8454 in wisdom.
