66Thus says the LORD, "Heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool. Where then is a house you could build for Me? And where is a place that I may rest?H559H3068H8064H3678H776H7272H1916H1004H1129H4725H4496 2"For My hand made all these things, Thus all these things came into being," declares the LORD. "But to this one I will look, To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.H3027H6213H5002H3068H5027H6041H5223H7307H2730H1697 3"[But] he who kills an ox is [like] one who slays a man; He who sacrifices a lamb is [like] the one who breaks a dog's neck; He who offers a grain offering [is like one who offers] swine's blood; He who burns incense is [like] the one who blesses an idol. As they have chosen their [own] ways, And their soul delights in their abominations,H7819H7794H5221H376H2076H7716H6202H3611H6202H5927H4503H2386H1818H2142H3828H1288H205H977H1870H5315H2654H8251 4So I will choose their punishments, And I will bring on them what they dread. Because I called, but no one answered; I spoke, but they did not listen. And they did evil in My sight, And chose that in which I did not delight. "H977H8586H935H4035H7121H6030H1696H8085H6213H7451H5869H977H2654 5Hear the word of the LORD, you who tremble at His word: "Your brothers who hate you, who exclude you for My name's sake, Have said, 'Let the LORD be glorified, that we may see your joy.' But they will be put to shame.H8085H1697H3068H2730H1697H251H8130H5077H8034H559H3068H3513H7200H8057H954 6"A voice of uproar from the city, a voice from the temple, The voice of the LORD who is rendering recompense to His enemies.H6963H7588H5892H6963H1964H6963H3068H7999H1576H341 7"Before she travailed, she brought forth; Before her pain came, she gave birth to a boy.H2342H3205H2256H935H4422H2145 8"Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Can a land be born in one day? Can a nation be brought forth all at once? As soon as Zion travailed, she also brought forth her sons.H8085H7200H776H2342H259H3117H1471H3205H6471H1571H6726H2342H3205H1121 9"Shall I bring to the point of birth, and not give delivery?" says the LORD. "Or shall I who gives delivery shut [the womb?]" says your God.H7665H3205H559H3068H589H3205H6113H559H430 10"Be joyful with Jerusalem and rejoice for her, all you who love her; Be exceedingly glad with her, all you who mourn over her,H8055H3389H1523H157H7797H4885H56 11That you may nurse and be satisfied with her comforting breasts, That you may suck and be delighted with her bountiful bosom. "H3243H7646H7699H8575H4711H6026H2123H3519 12For thus says the LORD, "Behold, I extend peace to her like a river, And the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream; And you shall be nursed, you shall be carried on the hip and fondled on the knees.H559H3068H5186H7965H5104H3519H1471H7857H5158H3243H5375H6654H8173H1290 13"As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; And you shall be comforted in Jerusalem."H376H517H5162H5162H5162H3389 14Then you shall see [this,] and your heart shall be glad, And your bones shall flourish like the new grass; And the hand of the LORD shall be made known to His servants, But He shall be indignant toward His enemies.H7200H3820H7797H6106H6524H1877H3027H3068H3045H5650H2194H341 15For behold, the LORD will come in fire And His chariots like the whirlwind, To render His anger with fury, And His rebuke with flames of fire.H3068H935H784H4818H5492H7725H639H2534H1606H3851H784 16For the LORD will execute judgment by fire And by His sword on all flesh, And those slain by the LORD will be many.H784H2719H3068H8199H1320H2491H3068H7231 17"Those who sanctify and purify themselves [to go] to the gardens, Following one in the center, Who eat swine's flesh, detestable things, and mice, Shall come to an end altogether," declares the LORD.H6942H2891H1593H310H259H8432H398H2386H1320H8263H5909H5486H3162H5002H3068 18"For I know their works and their thoughts; the time is coming to gather all nations and tongues. And they shall come and see My glory.H4639H4284H935H6908H1471H3956H935H7200H3519 19"And I will set a sign among them and will send survivors from them to the nations: Tarshish, Put, Lud, Meshech, Rosh, Tubal, and Javan, to the distant coastlands that have neither heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they will declare My glory among the nations.H7760H226H7971H6412H1471H8659H6322H3865H4900H7198H8422H3120H339H7350H8085H8088H7200H3519H5046H3519H1471 20"Then they shall bring all your brethren from all the nations as a grain offering to the LORD, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules, and on camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem," says the LORD, "just as the sons of Israel bring their grain offering in a clean vessel to the house of the LORD.H935H251H4503H3068H1471H5483H7393H6632H6505H3753H6944H2022H3389H559H3068H1121H3478H935H4503H2889H3627H1004H3068 21"I will also take some of them for priests [and] for Levites," says the LORD.H3947H3548H3881H559H3068 22"For just as the new heavens and the new earth Which I make will endure before Me," declares the LORD, "So your offspring and your name will endure.H2319H8064H2319H776H6213H5975H6440H5002H3068H2233H8034H5975 23"And it shall be from new moon to new moon And from sabbath to sabbath, All mankind will come to bow down before Me," says the LORD.H1767H2320H2320H1767H7676H7676H1320H935H7812H6440H559H3068 24"Then they shall go forth and look On the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm shall not die, And their fire shall not be quenched; And they shall be an abhorrence to all mankind."H3318H7200H6297H582H6586H8438H4191H784H3518H1860H1320
