Isaias

23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring (shall be) with them.

24 And it shall be, before they shall call, I will answer; still shall they be speaking, and I will hear.

25 The wolf and the lamb shall graze together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and (as. for) the serpent, dust his food. They shall not do evil nor deal corruptly in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.

LXVI. 1 Thus saith the LORD, The heavens are my throne, and the earth the footstool of my feet; where is this house ye will build unto me? and where is this place of my rest?

2 And all these things hath my hand made, and all these things came to be, saith the LORD; and to this one will I look, to him who is afflicted and contrite in spirit, and trembleth at my word.

3 He that slaughtereth the ox, slayeth a man; he that sacrificeth the sheep, breaketh a ’s neck; he that offereth a meal offering, sweene's blood: he that maketh a memorial of incense, blesseth iniquity. Also they have chosen their own ways, and their soul taketh pleasure in their abominations.

4 Also I will choose their mockeries, and will bring their fears upon them; because I called, and there was none that answered; I spake, and there was none that heard; and they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I took not pleasure.

5 Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; your brethren say, that hate you, that drive you away for my name's sake, Let the LORD show himself glorious, and we shall see your joy; and they shall be ashamed.

6 A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD rendering retribution to his enemies.
