Isaias

14 Behold, they are become as stubble, fire hath burned them; they shall not deliver their soul from the hand of the flame; it is no coal to be warm, fire to sit before.

15 Thus are the things to thee wherein thou hast laboured: thy traffickers from thy youth go astray everyone his own way: there is none that saveth thee.

XLVIII. 1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah; which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, not in truth, and not in righteousness.

2 For they are called of the holy city, and lean upon the God of Israel: the Lord of Hosts is his name.

3 I have declared the first things from that time; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them; I wrought suddenly, and they came to pass.

4 Because I knew that thou art hard, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass:

5 Therefore I have from that time declared it to thee 3 before it came to pass I showed it thee; lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.

6 Thou hast heard 3 see it all: and ye, will not ye declare it? I have caused thee to hear new things from now, and things reserved, and thou didst not know them. ‘

7 They are created now, and not from that time 3 and before to-day, and thou heardest them not 3 lest thou shouldest say,- Behold, I knew them.

8 Nay, thou hast not heard 3 nay, thou hast not known 3 nay, from that. time thine ear opened not 3 for I knew that thou gigs; (33:1 very treacherously, and wast‘ called a rebel from the womb.

9 For my name’s sake I defer mine anger, and for my praise do I refrain it for thee, that I cut thee not off.

10 Behold, I have refined thee, and not as silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.

11 For mine own sake, for mine own sake, will I do (it) 3 for how is it profaned? and I will not give my glory unto another.
