¹⁶ But arise, and stand upon thy feet, for I appeared to thee for this, to appoint thee an assistant and a witness both of things that thou saw, and of the things that I will make visible to thee, ¹⁷ delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, to whom I send thee,

²⁵ And being discord among each other, they departed after Paul spoke one thing, saying, Well spoke the Holy Spirit through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers, ²⁶ saying, Go thou to this people, and say, Hearing ye will hear, and will, no, not understand, and seeing ye will see, and will, no, not perceive. ²⁷ For this people's heart was made fat, and they hear heavily with the ears. And they shut their eyes, lest they may perceive with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and should turn, and I would heal them. ²⁸ Be it known to you therefore, that the salvation of God was sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear.

⁸ To me, a man less than the least of all the sanctified, this grace was given to preach good news among the Gentiles, the unsearchable wealth of Christ,

⁷ And LORD spoke to Moses, Go, get thee down. For thy people, that thou brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves. ⁸ They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made for them a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. ⁹ And LORD said to Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people. ¹⁰ Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may grow hot against them, and that I may consume them. And I will make of thee a great nation.

⁸ Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it on a scroll, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever. ⁹ For it is a rebellious people, lying sons, sons who will not hear the law of LORD, ¹⁰ who say to the seers, Do not see, and to the prophets, Do not prophesy to us right things. Speak to us smooth things. Prophesy deceits. ¹¹ Get you out of the way. Turn aside out of the path. Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.

⁸ Bring forth the blind people who have eyes, and the deaf who have ears.

¹⁸ They do not know, nor do they consider. For he has shut their eyes, that they cannot see, and their hearts, that they cannot understand. ¹⁹ And none calls to mind, nor is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire. Yea, I have also baked bread upon the coals of it. I have roasted flesh and eaten it. And shall I make the residue of it an abomination? Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree? ²⁰ He feeds on ashes. A deceived heart has turned him aside. And he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?

¹ Then LORD said to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not be toward this people. Cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth. ² And it shall come to pass, when they say to thee, Where shall we go forth? Then thou shall tell them, Thus says LORD: Such as are for death, to death, and such as are for the sword, to the sword, and such as are for the famine, to the famine, and such as are for captivity, to captivity.

⁹ And LORD said, Call his name Lo-ammi, for ye are not my people, and I will not be yours.

¹⁴ And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which says, By hearing ye will hear, and will, no, not understand, and seeing ye will see, and will, no, not perceive. ¹⁵ For this people's heart became fat, and their ears hear heavily, and their eyes are shut, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should turn, and I will heal them.

¹² So that seeing they may see, and not perceive, and hearing they may hear, and not understand, lest they should turn, and the sins would be forgiven them.

¹⁰ And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the others in parables, so that seeing they would not see, and hearing they would not understand.

⁴⁰ He has blinded their eyes, and has hardened their heart, so that they would not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be turned, and I would heal them.

²⁶ saying, Go thou to this people, and say, Hearing ye will hear, and will, no, not understand, and seeing ye will see, and will, no, not perceive. ²⁷ For this people's heart was made fat, and they hear heavily with the ears. And they shut their eyes, lest they may perceive with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and should turn, and I would heal them.

⁸ just as it is written that God gave them a spirit of slumber: eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, until this very day.

³ And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

²⁷ But LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.

¹⁰ And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh. And LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.

¹⁷ And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them, and I will get for me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his army, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

³⁰ But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as at this day.

¹⁵ But Jeshurun grew fat, and kicked. Thou have grown fat. Thou have grown thick. Thou have become sleek. Then he forsook God who made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

¹⁰ They are enclosed in their own fat. With their mouth they speak proudly.

⁷⁰ Their heart is as fat as grease, but I delight in thy law.

²² And LORD will smite Egypt, smiting and healing, and they shall return to LORD. And he will be entreated by them, and will heal them.

¹⁰ For LORD has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes. The prophets, and your heads, the seers, he has covered.

¹⁷ O LORD, why do thou make us to err from thy ways, and harden our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.

²¹ Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding, who have eyes, and see not, who have ears, and hear not:

¹⁰ To whom shall I speak and testify, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken. Behold, the word of LORD has become to them a reproach; they have no delight in it.

⁶ not to many peoples of a strange speech, and of a hard language, whose words thou cannot understand. Surely, if I sent thee to them, they would hearken to thee. ⁷ But the house of Israel will not hearken to thee, for they will not hearken to me. For all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and of a stiff heart. ⁸ Behold, I have made thy face hard against their faces, and thy forehead hard against their foreheads. ⁹ As an adamant, harder than flint, I have made thy forehead. Fear them not, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house. ¹⁰ Moreover he said to me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to thee, receive in thy heart, and hear with thine ears. ¹¹ And go, get thee to those of the captivity, to the sons of thy people, and speak to them, and tell them, Thus says the lord LORD, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

¹¹ But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they might not hear.

¹⁵ For this people's heart became fat, and their ears hear heavily, and their eyes are shut, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should turn, and I will heal them.

¹⁹ And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their deeds were evil. ²⁰ For every man who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, so that his works may not be exposed.

¹⁹ Repent ye therefore, and be converted in order to wipe away your sins, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.

²⁷ For this people's heart was made fat, and they hear heavily with the ears. And they shut their eyes, lest they may perceive with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and should turn, and I would heal them.

¹⁶ to the one an odor of death for death, and to the other an aroma of life for life. And who is adequate for these things?

³¹ And I will make your cities a waste, and will bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I will not smell the savor of your sweet odors.

¹⁰ How long, O God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme thy name forever?

⁵ How long, O LORD? Will thou be angry forever? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire?

¹³ Return, O LORD. How long? And relent concerning thy servants.

³ LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

⁷ Your country is desolate. Your cities are burned with fire. Your land-strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

²⁶ And her gates shall lament and mourn, and she shall be desolate and sit upon the ground.

¹ Behold, LORD makes the earth empty, and makes it waste, and turns it upside down, and scatters abroad the inhabitants of it. ² And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest, as with the servant, so with his master, as with the maid, so with her mistress, as with the buyer, so with the seller, as with the creditor, so with the debtor, as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of interest to him. ³ The earth shall be utterly emptied, and utterly laid waste, for LORD has spoken this word. ⁴ The earth mourns and fades away. The world languishes and fades away. The lofty people of the earth languish. ⁵ The earth also is polluted under the inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant. ⁶ Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and those who dwell in it are found guilty. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. ⁷ The new wine mourns. The vine languishes. All the merry-hearted do sigh. ⁸ The mirth of tambourine ceases. The noise of those who rejoice ends. The joy of the harp ceases. ⁹ They shall not drink wine with a song. Strong drink shall be bitter to those who drink it. ¹⁰ The waste city is broken down. Every house is shut up, that no man may come in. ¹¹ There is a crying in the streets because of the wine. All joy is darkened. The mirth of the land is gone. ¹² Desolation is left in the city, and the gate is smitten with destruction.

⁶⁴ And LORD will scatter thee among all peoples, from the one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. And there thou shall serve other gods, which thou have not known, thou nor thy fathers, even wood and stone.

¹¹ And the remnant of the people that were left in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the multitude, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive.

²¹ And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.

¹⁵ Thou have increased the nation, O LORD, thou have increased the nation. Thou are glorified. Thou have enlarged all the borders of the land.

²⁹ Every city flees for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen. They go into the thickets, and climb up upon the rocks. Every city is forsaken, and not a man dwells in it.

⁷ I have forsaken my house. I have cast off my heritage. I have given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.

⁴ And I will cause them to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.

²⁸ This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: In the seventh year three thousand twenty-three Jews. ²⁹ In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons. ³⁰ In the twenty-third year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty-five persons. All the persons were four thousand six hundred.

²⁰ Why do thou forget us forever, and forsake us so long time?

¹ I say therefore, did God thrust away his people? May it not happen! For I also am an Israelite from the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. ² God did not thrust away his people whom he foreknew. Or know ye not what the scripture tells by Elijah? How he encounters God about Israel.

¹⁵ For if the casting away of them is reconciliation of the world, what is the acceptance except life from the dead?

¹⁸ and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou have obeyed my voice.

² For they have taken of their daughters for themselves and for their sons, so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the peoples of the lands. Yea, the hand of the heads and rulers has been chief in this trespass.

⁷ For there is hope of a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch of it will not cease. ⁸ Though the root of it grows old in the earth, and the trunk of it dies in the ground, ⁹ yet through the scent of water it will bud, and put forth boughs like a plant.

⁹ Unless LORD of hosts had left to us a seed, we should have been as Sodom, we should have been like Gomorrah.

³ And it shall come to pass, that he who is left in Zion, and he who remains in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even everyone who is written among the living in Jerusalem,

²⁰ And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and those who are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again lean upon him who smote them, but shall lean upon LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. ²¹ A remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God. ²² For though thy people, Israel, be as the sand of the sea, a remnant of them shall return. A destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.

⁸ Thus says LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and a man says, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it, so I will do for my servants' sake, that I may not destroy them all. ⁹ And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains. And my chosen shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.

¹⁵ And did he not make one, although he had the residue of the Spirit? And why one? He sought a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.

²² And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would be saved. But because of the chosen those days will be shortened.

²⁰ And unless the Lord cut short the days, no flesh would have been saved, but because of the chosen, whom he chose, he cut short the days.

¹ I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the farmer. ² Every branch in me not bearing fruit, he removes it. And every branch that bears fruit, he prunes it, so that it may bear more fruit. ³ Now ye are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.

⁵ of whom are the fathers, and from whom (according to flesh) is the Christ, God who is over all is blessed into the ages. Truly.

⁵ So then also at this present time there has become a remnant according to the selection of grace. ⁶ And if it is by grace, it is no longer from works, otherwise grace becomes no longer grace. But if it is from works it is no longer grace, otherwise work is no longer work.

¹⁶ And if the first fruit is holy, the branch is also. And if the root is holy, the branches are also. ¹⁷ And if some of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a joint partaker of the root of the fatness of the olive tree, ¹⁸ do not boast against the branches. But if thou boast, thou do not bear the root, but the root thee. ¹⁹ Thou will therefore say, Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in. ²⁰ Correct! They were broken off for their unbelief, and thou stand by thy faith. Be not high-minded but fear, ²¹ for if God spared not the natural branches, perhaps neither will he spare thee. ²² Behold therefore the goodness and the severity of God. Indeed toward those who fell, severity, but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness, otherwise thou too will be cut off. ²³ And also those, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. ²⁴ For if thou were cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, the natural ones, be grafted into their own olive tree. ²⁵ For I do not want you, brothers, to be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise according to yourselves, that a callousness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles come in. ²⁶ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written, The man who delivers will come from Zion, and will turn away impiety from Jacob. ²⁷ And this is the covenant from me to them when I will take away their sins. ²⁸ They are indeed enemies toward the good news for your sake, but toward selection, they are beloved for the fathers' sake. ²⁹ For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.

¹⁶ Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, And to the seeds, as of many, but as of one, And to thy seed, who is Christ. ¹⁷ And I say this, a covenant previously confirmed by God in Christ, the law, which happened four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul in order to make the promise useless. ¹⁸ For if the inheritance is from law, it is no longer from promise. But God has given it to Abraham through promise. ¹⁹ Why then the law? It was added on account of transgressions, until the seed would come to whom it was promised, which was arranged through agents in the hand of a mediator.

²⁸ There is no Jew nor Greek, there is no bondman nor freeman, there is no male and female, for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. ²⁹ And if ye are Christ's, then ye are Abraham's seed and heirs according to promise.
