1The vision of Yesha’yahu [Yehovah has saved] the son of Amotz [strong], which he saw concerning Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] in the days of ‘Uziyah [my strength is Yehovah], Toram [Yehovah is Perfect], Achaz [he has grasped], [and] Hizkiyahu [Yehovah is my strength], kings of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised].

2Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.

3The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib: [but] Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] does not know, my people does not consider.

4Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), they have provoked the Holy One of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] unto anger, they are gone away backward.

5Why should you^2f be stricken anymore? you^2f will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.

6From the sole of the foot even unto the head [there is] no soundness in it; [but] wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified (be softened; appeased) with ointment.

7Your 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.

8And the daughter of Tziyon [parched place] is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.

9Except the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies] had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as S’dom [Burning], [and] we should have been like unto ‘Amora [Submersion].

10Hear the word of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), you^2f rulers of S’dom [Burning]; give ear unto the Torah of our God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], you^2f people of ‘Amora [Submersion].

11To what purpose [is] the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? says the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate): I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

12When you^2f come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?

13Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and Shabbat, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; [it is] iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

14Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear [them].

15And when you^2f spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you: yes, when you^2f make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

16Wash you, make yourself clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil;

17Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, defend the fatherless, plead for the widow.

18Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate): though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

19If you^2f be willing and obedient, you^2f shall eat the good of the land:

20But if you^2f refuse and rebel, you^2f shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has spoken [it].

21How is the faithful city become an prostitute! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

22Your1s silver is become scum, yourⁱ wine mixed with water:

23Your1s princes [are] rebellious, and companions of thieves: everyone loves gifts, and follows after rewards: they defend not the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come unto them.

24Therefore says the Lord-Adon [Lord of the Earth], the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies], the mighty One of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], Ah, I will free myself of my adversaries, and avenge me of my enemies:

25And I will turn my hand upon youⁱ, and purely purge away yourⁱ scum, and take away all yourⁱ tin:

26And I will restore yourⁱ judges as at the first, and yourⁱ counselors as at the beginning: afterward youⁱ shall be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

27Tziyon [parched place] shall be redeemed with judgment, and her repentant [ones] with righteousness.

28And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners [shall be] together, and they that forsake the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) shall be consumed.

29For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you^2f have desired, and you^2f shall be confounded for the gardens that you^2f have chosen.

30For you^2f shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.

31And the strong shall be as tinder, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench [them].
