Amplified Bible Help
48HEAR THIS, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel and who come forth from the seed of Judah, you who swear allegiance by the name of the Lord and make mention of the God of Israel--but not in truth {and} sincerity, nor in righteousness (rightness and moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation)--H8085H1004H3290H7121H8034H3478H3318H4325H3063H7650H8034H3068H2142H430H3478H571H6666 2For they call themselves [citizens] of the holy city and depend on the God of Israel--the Lord of hosts is His name.H7121H6944H5892H5564H430H3478H3068H6635H8034 3I have declared from the beginning the former things [which happened in times past to Israel]; they went forth from My mouth and I made them known; then suddenly I did them, and they came to pass [says the Lord].H5046H7223H227H3318H6310H8085H6213H6597H935 4Because I knew that you were obstinate, and your neck was an iron sinew and your brow was brass,H1847H7186H6203H1270H1517H4696H5154 5Therefore I have declared things to come to you from of old; before they came to pass I announced them to you, so that you could not say, My idol has done them, and my graven image and my molten image have commanded them.H227H5046H935H8085H559H6090H6213H6459H5262H6680 6You have heard [these things foretold], now you see this fulfillment. And will you not bear witness to it? I show you specified new things from this time forth, even hidden things [kept in reserve] which you have not known.H8085H2372H5046H8085H2319H6258H5341H3045 7They are created now [called into being by the prophetic word], and not long ago; and before today you have never heard of them, lest you should say, Behold, I knew them!H1254H6440H3117H8085H559H3045 8Yes, you have never heard, yes, you have never known; yes, from of old your ear has not been opened. For I, the Lord, knew that you, O house of Israel, dealt very treacherously; you were called a transgressor {and} a rebel [in revolt] from your birth.H8085H3045H241H6605H3045H898H898H7121H6586H990 9For My name's sake I defer My anger, and for the sake of My praise I restrain it for you, that I may not cut you off.H8034H748H639H8416H2413H3772 10Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tried {and} chosen you in the furnace of affliction.H6884H3701H977H3564H6040 11For My own sake, for My own sake, I do it [I refrain and do not utterly destroy you]; for why should I permit My name to be polluted {and} profaned [which it would be if the Lord completely destroyed His chosen people]? And I will not give My glory to another [by permitting the worshipers of idols to triumph over you].H6213H2490H5414H3519H312 12Listen to Me, O Jacob, and Israel, My called [ones]: I am He; I am the First, I also am the Last.H8085H3290H3478H7121H7223H314 13Yes, My hand has laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand has spread out the heavens; when I call to them, they stand forth together [to execute My decrees].H3027H3245H776H3225H2946H8064H7121H5975H3162 14Assemble yourselves, all of you, and hear! Who among them [the gods and Chaldean astrologers] has foretold these things? The Lord has loved him [Cyrus of Persia]; he will do His pleasure {and} purpose on Babylon, and his arm will be against the Chaldeans.H6908H8085H5046H3068H157H6213H2656H894H2220H3778 15I, even I, have foretold it; yes, I have called him [Cyrus]; I have brought him, and [the Lord] shall make his way prosperous.H1696H7121H935H1870H6743 16Come near to me and listen to this: I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it happened, I was there. And now the Lord God has sent His Spirit in {and} with me.H7126H7126H8085H1696H5643H7218H6256H136H3069H7307H7971 17Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you in the way that you should go.H559H3068H1350H6918H3478H3068H430H3925H3276H1869H1870H3212 18Oh, that you had hearkened to My commandments! Then your peace {and} prosperity would have been like a flowing river, and your righteousness [the holiness and purity of the nation] like the [abundant] waves of the sea.H3863H7181H4687H7965H5104H6666H1530H3220 19Your offspring would have been like the sand, and your descendants like the offspring of the sea; their name would not be cut off or destroyed from before Me.H2233H2344H6631H4578H4579H8034H3772H8045H6440 20Go forth out of Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans! With a voice of singing declare, tell this, cause it to go forth even to the end of the earth; say, The Lord has redeemed His servant Jacob!H3318H894H1272H3778H6963H7440H5046H8085H3318H7097H776H559H3068H1350H5650H3290 21And they thirsted not when He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He split the rock also, and the waters gushed out.H6770H3212H2723H4325H5140H6697H1234H6697H4325H2100 22There is no peace, says the Lord, for the wicked.H7965H559H3068H7563
