[HNV] Isaiah 46, World English Bible: Messianic Edition
Isaiah, starting at chapter 46
{46:1} Bel bows down, Nebo stoops; their idols are on the animals, and
on the livestock: the things that you carried about are made a
load, a burden to the weary. {46:2} They stoop, they bow down
together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves
have gone into captivity.
{46:3} Listen to me, house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house
of Israel, that have been borne from their birth, that have
been carried from the womb; {46:4} and even to old age I am he,
and even to gray hairs will I carry you. I have made, and I
will bear; yes, I will carry, and will deliver.
{46:5} To whom will you liken me, and make me equal, and compare me,
that we may be like? {46:6} Some pour out gold from the bag,
and weigh silver in the balance. They hire a goldsmith, and he
makes it a god. They fall down--yes, they worship. {46:7} They
bear it on the shoulder, they carry it, and set it in its
place, and it stands, from its place it shall not move: yes,
one may cry to it, yet it can not answer, nor save him out of
his trouble.
{46:8} Remember this, and show yourselves men; bring it again to
mind, you transgressors. {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; {46:10} declaring the end from the beginning,
and from ancient times things that are not yet done; saying, My
counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure; {46:11}
calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel
from a far country; yes, I have spoken, I will also bring it to
pass; I have purposed, I will also do it. {46:12} Listen to me,
you stout-hearted, who are far from righteousness: {46:13} I
bring near my righteousness, it shall not be far off, and my
salvation shall not wait; and I will place salvation in Zion
for Israel my glory.
{47:1} Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon;
sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Kasdim: for
you shall no more be called tender and delicate. {47:2} Take
the millstones, and grind meal; remove your veil, strip off the
train, uncover the leg, pass through the rivers. {47:3} Your
nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen: I
will take vengeance, and will spare no man.
{47:4} Our Redeemer, the LORD of Hosts is his name, the Holy One of
Israel.
{47:5} Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter of the Kasdim;
for you shall no more be called the mistress of kingdoms.
{47:6} I was angry with my people, I profaned my inheritance, and gave
them into your hand: you showed them no mercy; on the aged you
have very heavily laid your yoke. {47:7} You said, 'I shall be
a mistress forever;' so that you did not lay these things to
your heart, nor did you remember the latter end of it.
{47:8} Now therefore hear this, you who are given to pleasures, who
sit securely, who say in your heart, 'I am, and there is none
else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I
know the loss of children:' {47:9} but these two things shall
come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and
widowhood; in their full measure shall they come on you, in the
multitude of your sorceries, and the great abundance of your
enchantments. {47:10} For you have trusted in your wickedness;
you have said, No one sees me; your wisdom and your knowledge,
it has perverted you, and you have said in your heart, I am,
and there is none else besides me. {47:11} Therefore evil will
come on you; you won't know when it dawns: and mischief will
fall on you; you will not be able to put it away: and
desolation shall come on you suddenly, which you don't know.
{47:12} Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of
your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth; if
so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you may prevail.
{47:13} You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels: let
now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly
prognosticators, stand up, and save you from the things that
shall come on you. {47:14} Behold, they shall be as stubble;
the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves
from the power of the flame: it shall not be a coal to warm at,
nor a fire to sit before. {47:15} Thus shall the things be to
you in which you have labored: those who have trafficked with
you from your youth shall wander everyone to his quarter; there
shall be none to save you.

{48:1} Hear this, house of Jacob, you who
[HNV] Isaiah 46, World English Bible: Messianic Edition
Isaiah, starting at chapter 46
{46:1} Bel bows down, Nebo stoops; their idols are on the animals, and
on the livestock: the things that you carried about are made a
load, a burden to the weary [animal]. {46:2} They stoop, they
bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but
themselves are gone into captivity.
{46:3} Listen to me, house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house
of Israel, that have been borne [by me] from their birth, that
have been carried from the womb; {46:4} and even to old age I
am he, and even to gray hairs will I carry you. I have made,
and I will bear; yes, I will carry, and will deliver.
{46:5} To whom will you liken me, and make me equal, and compare me,
that we may be like? {46:6} Some pour out gold from the bag,
and weigh silver in the balance. They hire a goldsmith, and he
makes it a god. They fall down--yes, they worship. {46:7} They
bear it on the shoulder, they carry it, and set it in its
place, and it stands, from its place it shall not move: yes,
one may cry to it, yet it can not answer, nor save him out of
his trouble.
{46:8} Remember this, and show yourselves men; bring it again to
mind, you transgressors. {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; {46:10} declaring the end from the
beginning, and from ancient times things that are not [yet]
done; saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my
pleasure; {46:11} calling a ravenous bird from the east, the
man of my counsel from a far country; yes, I have spoken, I
will also bring it to pass; I have purposed, I will also do it.
{46:12} Listen to me, you stout-hearted, who are far from
righteousness: {46:13} I bring near my righteousness, it shall
not be far off, and my salvation shall not wait; and I will
place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
{47:1} Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon;
sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Kasdim: for
you shall no more be called tender and delicate. {47:2} Take
the millstones, and grind meal; remove your veil, strip off the
train, uncover the leg, pass through the rivers. {47:3} Your
nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen: I
will take vengeance, and will spare no man.
{47:4} Our Redeemer, the LORD of Hosts is his name, the Holy One of
Israel.
{47:5} Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter of the Kasdim;
for you shall no more be called the mistress of kingdoms.
{47:6} I was angry with my people, I profaned my inheritance, and gave
them into your hand: you showed them no mercy; on the aged you
have very heavily laid your yoke. {47:7} You said, I shall be
mistress forever; so that you did not lay these things to your
heart, neither did remember the latter end of it.
{47:8} Now therefore hear this, you who are given to pleasures, who
sit securely, who say in your heart, I am, and there is none
else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I
know the loss of children: {47:9} but these two things shall
come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and
widowhood; in their full measure shall they come on you, in the
multitude of your sorceries, and the great abundance of your
enchantments. {47:10} For you have trusted in your wickedness;
you have said, No one sees me; your wisdom and your knowledge,
it has perverted you, and you have said in your heart, I am,
and there is none else besides me. {47:11} Therefore evil will
come on you; you won't know when it dawns: and mischief wil
fall on you; you will not be able to put it away: and
desolation shall come on you suddenly, which you don't know.
{47:12} Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of
your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth; if
so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you may prevail.
{47:13} You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels: let
now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly
prognosticators, stand up, and save you from the things that
shall come on you. {47:14} Behold, they shall be as stubble;
the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves
from the power of the flame: it shall not be a coal to warm at,
nor a fire to sit before. {47:15} Thus shall the things be to
you in which you have labored: those who have trafficked with
you from your youth shall wander everyone to his quarter; there
shall be none to save you.
