Isaiah 13

Prophecies about Babylon

1

The  1 aoracleh4853b concerning  bBabylonh894 whichh834  cIsaiahh3470b the sonh1121 of Amozh531 sawh2372.

2

 aLifth5375 up a standardh5251 on the  1 bbareh8192 hillh2022, Raiseh7311 your voiceh6963 to them,  cWaveh5130 the handh3027 that they may  denterh935 the doorsh6607 of the noblesh5081.

3

I have commandedh6680 My consecratedh6942 ones, I have evenh1571 calledh7121 My  amightyh1368 warriorsh1368, My proudlyh1346 exultingh5947 onesh5947, To execute My angerh639.

4

A  asoundh6963 of tumulth1995 on the mountainsh2022, Likeh1823 that of manyh7227a peopleh5971a! A soundh6963 of the uproarh7588 of kingdomsh4467, Of nationsh1471 gatheredh622 together! The LORDh3068 of hostsh6635 is musteringh6485 the armyh6635 for battleh4421.

5

They are comingh935 from a farh4801 countryh776, From the  1 afarthesth7093 horizonsh8064, The LORDh3068 and His instrumentsh3627 of  bindignationh2195, To  cdestroyh2254b the wholeh3605 landh776.

Judgment on the Day of the LORD

6

Wailh3213, for the  adayh3117 of the LORDh3068 is nearh7138! It will comeh935 as  bdestructionh7701 from  1the Almightyh7706b.

7

Thereforeh5921h3651  aallh3605 handsh3027 will fallh7503 limph7503, And everyh3605 man'sh582  bhearth3824 will melth4549.

8

They will be  aterrifiedh926, Painsh6735c and anguishh2256b will takeh270 holdh270 of them; They will  bwritheh2342a like a woman in laborh3205, They will lookh8539 at oneh376 anotherh7453 in astonishmenth8539, Their facesh6440 aflameh3857.

9

Beholdh2009,  athe dayh3117 of the LORDh3068 is comingh935, Cruelh394, with furyh5678 and burningh2740 angerh639, To makeh7760 the landh776 a desolationh8047; And He will exterminateh8045 its sinnersh2400 from it.

10

For the  astarsh3556 of heavenh4605 and their constellationsh3685 Will not flashh1984a forthh1984a their lighth216; The  bsunh8121 will be darkh2821 when it risesh3318 And the moonh3394 will not shedh5050 its lighth216.

11

Thus I will  apunishh6485 the worldh8398 for its evilh7463a And the  bwickedh7563 for their iniquityh5771; I will also puth7673a an endh7673a to the  carroganceh1347b of the proudh2086 And abaseh8213 the  dhaughtinessh1346 of the  1 eruthlessh6184.

12

I will makeh3365 mortalh582 manh582  1 ascarcerh3365 thanh4480 pureh6337 goldh6337 And mankindh120 thanh4480 the  bgoldh3800 of Ophirh211.

13

Thereforeh5921h3651 I will make the  aheavensh8064 trembleh7264, And  bthe earthh776 will be shakenh7493 from its placeh4725 At the furyh5678 of the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635 In  cthe dayh3117 of His burningh2740 angerh639.

14

And it will be that like a huntedh5080 gazelleh6643b, Or like  asheeph6629 with noneh369 to gatherh6908 them, They will eachh376 turnh6437 to his own peopleh5971a, And eachh376 oneh376 fleeh5127 to his own landh776.

15

Anyoneh3605 who is foundh4672 will be  athrusth1856 throughh1856, And anyoneh3605 who is capturedh5595 will fallh5307 by the swordh2719.

16

Their  alittleh5768 onesh5768 also will be dashedh7376 to piecesh7376 Before their eyesh5869; Their housesh1004 will be plunderedh8155 And their wivesh802 ravishedh7693.

Babylon Will Fall to the Medes

17

Beholdh2009, I am going to  astirh5782 up the Medesh4074 againsth5921 them, Whoh834 will not valueh2803 silverh3701 or  btakeh2654a pleasureh2654a in goldh2091.

18

And their bowsh7198 will  1mowh7376 downh7376 the  ayoungh5288 menh5288, They will not even haveh7355 compassionh7355 on the fruith6529 of the wombh990, Nor will their  beyeh5869 pityh2347  2childrenh1121.

19

And  aBabylonh894, the  bbeautyh6643a of kingdomsh4467, the gloryh8597 of the Chaldeans'h3778 prideh1347b, Will be as when Godh430  coverthrewh4114 Sodomh5467 and Gomorrahh6017.

20

It will  aneverh3808h5331 be inhabitedh3427 or livedh7931 in from generationh1755 to generationh1755; Norh3808 will the  bArabh6163b pitchh167 his tenth167 thereh8033, Norh3808 will shepherdsh7462a make their flocks lieh7257 downh7257 thereh8033.

21

But  adeserth6716b creaturesh6716b will lieh7257 downh7257 thereh8033, And their housesh1004 will be fullh4390 of  1owlsh255; Ostrichesh3284 also will liveh7931 thereh8033, and  2shaggyh8163a goatsh8163b will frolich7540 thereh8033.

22

 1Hyenash338 will howlh6031b in their fortifiedh490 towers And jackalsh8565 in their luxurioush6027  apalacesh1964. Her fateful timeh6256 also  2will soonh7138 comeh935 And her daysh3117 will not be prolongedh4900.
