Isaiah, starting at chapter 31
{31:1} Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help,
and rely on horses,
and trust in chariots because they are many,
and in horsemen because they are very strong,
but they don't look to the Holy One of Israel,
and they don't seek the LORD!
{31:2} Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster,
and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house
of the evildoers,
and against the help of those who work iniquity.
{31:3} Now the Egyptians are men, and not God;
and their horses flesh, and not spirit.
When the LORD stretches out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble,
and he who is helped shall fall,
and they all shall be consumed together.
{31:4} For thus says the LORD to me,
"As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey,
if a multitude of shepherds is called together against him,
will not be dismayed at their voice,
nor abase himself for their noise,
so the LORD of Hosts will come down to fight on Mount Zion and on
its heights.
{31:5} As birds hovering, so the LORD of Hosts will protect Jerusalem.
He will protect and deliver it.
He will pass over and preserve it."
{31:6} Return to him from whom you have deeply revolted, children of
Israel. {31:7} For in that day everyone shall cast away his idols of
silver and his idols of gold--sin which your own hands have made for
you.
{31:8} "The Assyrian will fall by the sword, not of man;
and the sword, not of mankind, shall devour him.
He will flee from the sword,
and his young men will become subject to forced labor.
{31:9} His rock will pass away by reason of terror,
and his princes will be afraid of the banner,"
says the LORD, whose fire is in Zion,
and his furnace in Jerusalem.
{32:1} Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness,
and princes shall rule in justice.
{32:2} 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.
{32:3} The eyes of those who see will not be dim,
and the ears of those who hear will listen.
{32:4} The heart of the rash will understand knowledge,
and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.
{32:5} The fool will no longer be called noble,
nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
{32:6} 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.
{32:7} The ways of the scoundrel are evil.
He devises wicked devices to destroy the humble with lying words,
even when the needy speaks right.
{32:8} But the noble devises noble things;
and he will continue in noble things.
{32:9} Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my voice!
You careless daughters, give ear to my speech!
{32:10} For days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless
women;
for the vintage shall fail.
The harvest won't come.
{32:11} Tremble, you women who are at ease!
Be troubled, you careless ones!
Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked,
and put sackcloth on your waist.
{32:12} Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vine.
{32:13} Thorns and briars will come up on my people's land;
yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.
{32:14} 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;
{32:15} 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.
{32:16} Then justice will dwell in the wilderness;
and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.
{32:17} The work of righteousness will be peace;
and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
{32:18} My people will live in a peaceful habitation,
in safe dwellings,
and in quiet resting places.
{32:19} Though hail flattens the forest,
and the city is leveled completely.
{32:20} Blessed are you who sow beside all waters,
who send out the feet of the ox and the donkey.
{33:1} Woe to you who destroy, but you weren't destroyed;
and who betray, but nobody betrayed you!
When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed;
and when you have made an end of betrayal, you will be betrayed.
{33:2} LORD, be gracious to us. We have waited for you.
Be our strength every morning,
our salvation also in the time of trouble.
{33:3} At the noise of the thunder, the peoples have fled.
When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered.
{33:4} Your spoil will be gathered as the caterpillar gathers.
Men will leap on it as locusts leap.
{33:5} The LORD is exalted, for he dwells on high.

and put sackcloth on your waist.
{32:12} Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vine.
{32:13} Thorns and briars will come up on my people's land;
yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.
{32:14} 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;
{32:15} 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.
{32:16} Then justice will dwell in the wilderness;
and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.
{32:17} The work of righteousness will be peace;
and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
{32:18} My people will live in a peaceful habitation,
in safe dwellings,
and in quiet resting places.
{32:19} Though hail flattens the forest,
and the city is leveled completely.
{32:20} Blessed are you who sow beside all waters,
who send out the feet of the ox and the donkey.
{33:1} Woe to you who destroy, but you weren't destroyed;
and who betray, but nobody betrayed you!
When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed;
and when you have made an end of betrayal, you will be betrayed.
{33:2} LORD, be gracious to us. We have waited for you.
Be our strength every morning,
our salvation also in the time of trouble.
{33:3} At the noise of the thunder, the peoples have fled.
When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered.
{33:4} Your spoil will be gathered as the caterpillar gathers.
Men will leap on it as locusts leap.

Isaiah, starting at chapter 31
{31:1} Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help,
and rely on horses,
and trust in chariots because they are many,
and in horsemen because they are very strong,
but they don't look to the Holy One of Israel,
and they don't seek the LORD!
{31:2} Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster,
and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house
of the evildoers,
and against the help of those who work iniquity.
{31:3} Now the Egyptians are men, and not God;
and their horses flesh, and not spirit.
When the LORD stretches out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble,
and he who is helped shall fall,
and they all shall be consumed together.
{31:4} For thus says the LORD to me,
"As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey,
if a multitude of shepherds is called together against him,
will not be dismayed at their voice,
nor abase himself for the noise of them,
so the LORD of Hosts will come down to fight on Mount Zion and on
its heights.
{31:5} As birds hovering, so the LORD of Hosts will protect Jerusalem.
He will protect and deliver it.
He will pass over and preserve it."
{31:6} Return to him from whom you have deeply revolted, children of
Israel. {31:7} For in that day everyone shall cast away his idols of
silver and his idols of gold--sin which your own hands have made for
you.
{31:8} "The Assyrian will fall by the sword, not of man;
and the sword, not of mankind, shall devour him.
He will flee from the sword,
and his young men will become subject to forced labor.
{31:9} His rock will pass away by reason of terror,
and his princes will be afraid of the banner,"
says the LORD, whose fire is in Zion,
and his furnace in Jerusalem.
{32:1} Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness,
and princes shall rule in justice.
{32:2} 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.
{32:3} The eyes of those who see will not be dim,
and the ears of those who hear will listen.
{32:4} The heart of the rash will understand knowledge,
and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.
{32:5} The fool will no longer be called noble,
nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
{32:6} 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.
{32:7} The ways of the scoundrel are evil.
He devises wicked devices to destroy the humble with lying words,
even when the needy speaks right.
{32:8} But the noble devises noble things;
and he will continue in noble things.
{32:9} Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my voice!
You careless daughters, give ear to my speech!
{32:10} For days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless
women;
for the vintage shall fail.
The harvest won't come.
{32:11} Tremble, you women who are at ease!
Be troubled, you careless ones!
Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked,
and put sackcloth on your waist.

for the fruitful vine.
