Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
戒民倚恃埃及必受祸害
30 耶和华说：“祸哉，这悖逆的儿女！他们同谋却不由于我，结盟却不由于我的灵，以致罪上加罪。 2 起身下埃及去，并没有求问我，要靠法老的力量加添自己的力量，并投在埃及的荫下。 3 所以法老的力量必做你们的羞辱，投在埃及的荫下要为你们的惭愧。 4 他们的首领已在琐安，他们的使臣到了哈内斯。 5 他们必因那不利于他们的民蒙羞，那民并非帮助，也非利益，只做羞耻凌辱。”
6 论南方牲畜的默示。
“他们把财物驮在驴驹的脊背上，将宝物驮在骆驼的肉鞍上，经过艰难困苦之地，就是公狮、母狮、蝮蛇、火焰的飞龙之地，往那不利于他们的民那里去。 7 埃及的帮助是徒然无益的，所以我称他为‘坐而不动的拉哈伯’。
责民悖逆不听训言
8 “现今你去，在他们面前将这话刻在版上，写在书上，以便传留后世，直到永永远远。 9 因为他们是悖逆的百姓、说谎的儿女，不肯听从耶和华训诲的儿女。 10 他们对先见说：‘不要望见不吉利的事！’对先知说：‘不要向我们讲正直的话！要向我们说柔和的话，言虚幻的事。 11 你们要离弃正道，偏离直路，不要在我们面前再提说以色列的圣者！’ 12 所以以色列的圣者如此说：‘因为你们藐视这训诲的话，倚赖欺压和乖僻，以此为可靠的， 13 故此，这罪孽在你们身上好像将要破裂凸出来的高墙，顷刻之间忽然坍塌。 14 要被打碎，好像把窑匠的瓦器打碎，毫不顾惜，甚至碎块中找不到一片可用以从炉内取火，从池中舀水。’”
15 主耶和华以色列的圣者曾如此说：“你们得救在乎归回安息，你们得力在乎平静安稳。”你们竟自不肯！ 16 你们却说：“不然，我们要骑马奔走。”所以你们必然奔走。又说：“我们要骑飞快的牲口。”所以追赶你们的也必飞快。 17 一人叱喝必令千人逃跑，五人叱喝你们都必逃跑，以致剩下的好像山顶的旗杆，冈上的大旗。
仰望耶和华者必蒙福祉
18 耶和华必然等候，要施恩给你们，必然兴起，好怜悯你们，因为耶和华是公平的神。凡等候他的，都是有福的！ 19 百姓必在锡安，在耶路撒冷居住，你不再哭泣。主必因你哀求的声音施恩给你，他听见的时候，就必应允你。 20 主虽然以艰难给你当饼，以困苦给你当水，你的教师却不再隐藏，你眼必看见你的教师。 21 你或向左或向右，你必听见后边有声音说：“这是正路，要行在其间。” 22 你雕刻偶像所包的银子和铸造偶像所镀的金子，你要玷污，要抛弃，好像污秽之物，对偶像说：“去吧！”
23 你将种子撒在地里，主必降雨在其上，并使地所出的粮肥美丰盛。到那时，你的牲畜必在宽阔的草场吃草。 24 耕地的牛和驴驹必吃加盐的料，这料是用木锨和杈子扬净的。 25 在大行杀戮的日子，高台倒塌的时候，各高山冈陵必有川流河涌。 26 当耶和华缠裹他百姓的损处，医治他民鞭伤的日子，月光必像日光，日光必加七倍，像七日的光一样。
耶和华怒灭仇敌俾民欢喜
27 看哪，耶和华的名从远方来，怒气烧起，密烟上腾。他的嘴唇满有愤恨，他的舌头像吞灭的火， 28 他的气如涨溢的河水，直涨到颈项，要用毁灭的筛箩筛净列国，并且在众民的口中必有使人错行的嚼环。 29 你们必唱歌，像守圣节的夜间一样；并且心中喜乐，像人吹笛，上耶和华的山，到以色列的磐石那里。 30 耶和华必使人听他威严的声音，又显他降罚的膀臂和他怒中的愤恨，并吞灭的火焰与霹雷、暴风、冰雹。
惩罚亚述
31 亚述人必因耶和华的声音惊惶，耶和华必用杖击打他。 32 耶和华必将命定的杖加在他身上，每打一下，人必击鼓弹琴。打仗的时候，耶和华必抡起手来与他交战。 33 原来陀斐特又深又宽，早已为王预备好了，其中堆的是火与许多木柴，耶和华的气如一股硫磺火，使它着起来。
斥恃埃及不仰望耶和华之愚
31 祸哉，那些下埃及求帮助的！是因仗赖马匹，倚靠甚多的车辆，并倚靠强壮的马兵，却不仰望以色列的圣者，也不求问耶和华。 2 其实耶和华有智慧，他必降灾祸，并不反悔自己的话，却要兴起攻击那作恶之家，又攻击那作孽帮助人的。 3 埃及人不过是人，并不是神；他们的马不过是血肉，并不是灵。耶和华一伸手，那帮助人的必绊跌，那受帮助的也必跌倒，都一同灭亡。
劝民归诚
4 耶和华对我如此说：“狮子和少壮狮子护食咆哮，就是喊许多牧人来攻击它，它总不因他们的声音惊惶，也不因他们的喧哗缩伏。如此，万军之耶和华也必降临在锡安山冈上争战。 5 雀鸟怎样扇翅覆雏，万军之耶和华也要照样保护耶路撒冷。他必保护拯救，要越门保守。” 6 以色列人哪，你们深深地悖逆耶和华，现今要归向他。 7 到那日，各人必将他金偶像、银偶像，就是亲手所造陷自己在罪中的，都抛弃了。
预言亚述必灭
8 “亚述人必倒在刀下，并非人的刀；有刀要将他吞灭，并非人的刀。他必逃避这刀，他的少年人必成为服苦的。 9 他的磐石必因惊吓挪去，他的首领必因大旗惊惶。”这是那有火在锡安、有炉在耶路撒冷的耶和华说的。

依靠埃及徒劳无益
30 耶和华说：
“我悖逆的儿女有祸了！
他们不遵行我的旨意，
按自己的计划行事；
未经我同意，擅自与人结盟，
不断犯罪。
2 他们不求问我便去埃及，
想得到法老的保护和荫庇。
3 然而，法老的保护和荫庇必成为他们的耻辱。
4 虽然他们的官长和使臣已到琐安和哈内斯，
5 但他们必蒙羞，
因为埃及人对他们毫无用处，
没有任何帮助和益处，
带给他们的只有羞愧和耻辱。”
6 以下是关于南地动物的预言：
他们的使臣用驴驮着财物，
用骆驼驮着珍宝，
穿过公狮、母狮、蝮蛇和飞蛇出没的艰险之地，
前往一个对他们毫无用处的国家。
7 埃及的帮助是徒然的，
所以我称她为“没用的海怪[a]”。
8 耶和华对我说：
“现在，你去当着他们的面把这些话刻在版上，
记在书卷上，
永远留给后世作明证。
9 他们是悖逆的民族，
是说谎的儿女，
不肯听从耶和华的教导。
10 他们对先见说，
‘你们不要再看异象了。’
又对先知说，
‘不要再教导我们是非对错。
给我们说些好听的话，
讲些虚幻的事吧。
11 让开！不要挡我们的路！
不要再给我们讲以色列圣者的事。’
12 因此，以色列的圣者说，
‘因为你们藐视我的话，
依仗欺压之能和诡诈之术，
13 你们的罪恶必像一堵断裂、凸起的高墙，
摇摇欲坠，瞬间倒塌，
14 又像瓦器一样被摔得粉碎，
找不到一块可以用来从火炉中取炭或从水池里舀水的碎片。’”
15 主耶和华——以色列的圣者说：
“你们回转、安息便可得到拯救；
你们安静、信靠便可得到力量。
但你们却不肯。
16 你们说，‘不，我们要骑马奔逃。’
所以你们必奔逃。
你们又说，‘我们要骑快马逃跑。’
所以追赶你们的人必疾驰如飞。
17 他们一人叱喝，
必吓得你们千人逃跑；
他们五人叱喝，
你们必全部逃跑，
以致余剩的人少得像山顶上的旗杆、高岗上的旗帜。”
18 因此，耶和华正在等候，
准备施恩给你们，
祂必怜悯你们。
因为耶和华是公义的上帝，
等候祂的人有福了！
19 住在耶路撒冷的锡安百姓啊，你们必不再哭泣。祂听到你们的呼求后必恩待你们；祂听见后必应允你们。 20 虽然主让你们经苦难、历艰辛，但你们的教师必不再隐藏，你们必亲眼看见你们的教师。 21 不管你们向左还是向右，都会听见背后有声音说：“这是正路，踏上去吧！” 22 你们必抛弃自己那些镀金包银的偶像，把它们当作污秽之物丢掉，对它们说：“去吧！”
23 你们撒种，主必降雨，并使你们五谷丰登。那时，你们的牲畜必在宽阔的草场上吃草； 24 耕田的牛和驴必吃用叉子和铲子扬净、拌上盐的饲料。 25 在你们的敌人被杀戮、城楼倒塌的日子，你们的高山冈陵上必有溪水奔流。 26 耶和华包扎他百姓的创伤，医治祂子民的伤口时，月亮必发出太阳般的光辉，太阳的光辉必增加七倍，灿烂得好像七个太阳同时发光。
27 看啊，耶和华从远方来，
伴着滚滚浓烟，
祂的怒气如烈火，
话语充满愤怒，舌头好像烈焰。
28 祂的气息像淹到人颈项的洪流。
祂必像筛子一样筛列国，
毁灭他们，并把嚼环放在列邦口中，
引他们走上歧途。
29 但你们必欢唱，好像晚上庆祝节期；你们必充满喜乐，好像人们吹着笛子登耶和华的山、到以色列磐石那里。 30 耶和华必使人听见祂威严的声音，在愤怒、烈焰、暴雨、雷轰和冰雹中让人看见祂降罚的臂膀。 31 亚述人听见耶和华的声音必心惊胆战，祂必用杖击打他们。 32 耶和华的刑杖每责打他们一下，祂的子民必击鼓弹琴。祂必在战场上挥手击打他们。 33 焚烧之地——陀斐特早已为亚述王预备好了，那里又宽又深，堆着许多木柴，耶和华的气必如同一股硫磺火点燃那些木柴。
要倚靠主，而非埃及
31 那些到埃及寻求帮助的人有祸了！
他们仰赖战马，倚靠众多的战车和强壮的骑兵，
却不仰望以色列的圣者，
不寻求耶和华。
2 然而，耶和华有智慧，
会降灾，
从不收回自己的话。
祂必惩罚恶人之家及其帮凶。
3 埃及人不过是人，并非上帝；
埃及的战马是血肉之躯，
并非神灵。
耶和华一伸手，
那些帮凶必踉跄，
受帮助的必跌倒，
他们必一同灭亡。
4 耶和华又对我说：
“猛狮守护猎物，发出咆哮。
即使众多牧人一起攻击它，
它也不会因他们的呐喊而惧怕，
不会因他们的叫嚷而畏缩。
同样，万军之耶和华必降临在锡安山上争战。
5 万军之耶和华必保护耶路撒冷，
就像飞鸟展翅保护幼雏一样。
祂必护卫它，拯救它。”
6 以色列人啊，你们曾经严重地悖逆耶和华，现在归向祂吧！ 7 到那日，你们都要抛弃自己用罪恶双手制造的金银偶像。
8 “亚述人必丧身刀下，
但并非死于人的刀下。
他们必逃避这刀，
他们的青年必受奴役。
9 他们的堡垒必因恐惧而倒塌，
他们的将领一看见战旗必惊慌失措。”
这是耶和华说的，
祂的火在锡安，祂的火炉在 耶路撒冷。

30 耶和華說：
「我悖逆的兒女有禍了！
他們不遵行我的旨意，
按自己的計劃行事；
未經我同意，擅自與人結盟，
不斷犯罪。
2 他們不求問我便去埃及，
想得到法老的保護和蔭庇。
3 然而，法老的保護和蔭庇必成為他們的恥辱。
4 雖然他們的官長和使臣已到瑣安和哈內斯，
5 但他們必蒙羞，
因為埃及人對他們毫無用處，
沒有任何幫助和益處，
帶給他們的只有羞愧和恥辱。」
6 以下是關於南地動物的預言：
他們的使臣用驢馱著財物，
用駱駝馱著珍寶，
穿過公獅、母獅、蝮蛇和飛蛇出沒的艱險之地，
前往一個對他們毫無用處的國家。
7 埃及的幫助是徒然的，
所以我稱她為「沒用的海怪[a]」。
8 耶和華對我說：
「現在，你去當著他們的面把這些話刻在版上，
記在書卷上，
永遠留給後世作明證。
9 他們是悖逆的民族，
是說謊的兒女，
不肯聽從耶和華的教導。
10 他們對先見說，
『你們不要再看異象了。』
又對先知說，
『不要再教導我們是非對錯。
給我們說些好聽的話，
講些虛幻的事吧。
11 讓開！不要擋我們的路！
不要再給我們講以色列聖者的事。』
12 因此，以色列的聖者說，
『因為你們藐視我的話，
依仗欺壓之能和詭詐之術，
13 你們的罪惡必像一堵斷裂、凸起的高牆，
搖搖欲墜，瞬間倒塌，
14 又像瓦器一樣被摔得粉碎，
找不到一塊可以用來從火爐中取炭或從水池裡舀水的碎片。』」
15 主耶和華——以色列的聖者說：
「你們回轉、安息便可得到拯救；
你們安靜、信靠便可得到力量。
但你們卻不肯。
16 你們說，『不，我們要騎馬奔逃。』
所以你們必奔逃。
你們又說，『我們要騎快馬逃跑。』
所以追趕你們的人必疾馳如飛。
17 他們一人叱喝，
必嚇得你們千人逃跑；
他們五人叱喝，
你們必全部逃跑，
以致餘剩的人少得像山頂上的旗杆、高崗上的旗幟。」
18 因此，耶和華正在等候，
準備施恩給你們，
祂必憐憫你們。
因為耶和華是公義的上帝，
等候祂的人有福了！
19 住在耶路撒冷的錫安百姓啊，你們必不再哭泣。祂聽到你們的呼求後必恩待你們；祂聽見後必應允你們。 20 雖然主讓你們經苦難、歷艱辛，但你們的教師必不再隱藏，你們必親眼看見你們的教師。 21 不管你們向左還是向右，都會聽見背後有聲音說：「這是正路，踏上去吧！」 22 你們必拋棄自己那些鍍金包銀的偶像，把它們當作污穢之物丟掉，對它們說：「去吧！」
23 你們撒種，主必降雨，並使你們五穀豐登。那時，你們的牲畜必在寬闊的草場上吃草； 24 耕田的牛和驢必吃用叉子和鏟子揚淨、拌上鹽的飼料。 25 在你們的敵人被殺戮、城樓倒塌的日子，你們的高山岡陵上必有溪水奔流。 26 耶和華包紮他百姓的創傷，醫治祂子民的傷口時，月亮必發出太陽般的光輝，太陽的光輝必增加七倍，燦爛得好像七個太陽同時發光。
27 看啊，耶和華從遠方來，
伴著滾滾濃煙，
祂的怒氣如烈火，
話語充滿憤怒，舌頭好像烈焰。
28 祂的氣息像淹到人頸項的洪流。
祂必像篩子一樣篩列國，
毀滅他們，並把嚼環放在列邦口中，
引他們走上歧途。
29 但你們必歡唱，好像晚上慶祝節期；你們必充滿喜樂，好像人們吹著笛子登耶和華的山、到以色列磐石那裡。 30 耶和華必使人聽見祂威嚴的聲音，在憤怒、烈焰、暴雨、雷轟和冰雹中讓人看見祂降罰的臂膀。 31 亞述人聽見耶和華的聲音必心驚膽戰，祂必用杖擊打他們。 32 耶和華的刑杖每責打他們一下，祂的子民必擊鼓彈琴。祂必在戰場上揮手擊打他們。 33 焚燒之地——陀斐特早已為亞述王預備好了，那裡又寬又深，堆著許多木柴，耶和華的氣必如同一股硫磺火點燃那些木柴。
要倚靠主，而非埃及
31 那些到埃及尋求幫助的人有禍了！
他們仰賴戰馬，倚靠眾多的戰車和強壯的騎兵，
卻不仰望以色列的聖者，
不尋求耶和華。
2 然而，耶和華有智慧，
會降災，
從不收回自己的話。
祂必懲罰惡人之家及其幫兇。
3 埃及人不過是人，並非上帝；
埃及的戰馬是血肉之軀，
並非神靈。
耶和華一伸手，
那些幫兇必踉蹌，
受幫助的必跌倒，
他們必一同滅亡。
4 耶和華又對我說：
「猛獅守護獵物，發出咆哮。
即使眾多牧人一起攻擊牠，
牠也不會因他們的呐喊而懼怕，
不會因他們的叫嚷而畏縮。
同樣，萬軍之耶和華必降臨在錫安山上爭戰。
5 萬軍之耶和華必保護耶路撒冷，
就像飛鳥展翅保護幼雛一樣。
祂必護衛它，拯救它。」
6 以色列人啊，你們曾經嚴重地悖逆耶和華，現在歸向祂吧！ 7 到那日，你們都要拋棄自己用罪惡雙手製造的金銀偶像。
8 「亞述人必喪身刀下，
但並非死於人的刀下。
他們必逃避這刀，
他們的青年必受奴役。
9 他們的堡壘必因恐懼而倒塌，
他們的將領一看見戰旗必驚慌失措。」
這是耶和華說的，
祂的火在錫安，祂的火爐在 耶路撒冷。

New International Version
Woe to the Obstinate Nation
30 “Woe(A) to the obstinate children,”(B)
declares the Lord,
“to those who carry out plans that are not mine,
forming an alliance,(C) but not by my Spirit,
heaping sin upon sin;
2 who go down to Egypt(D)
without consulting(E) me;
who look for help to Pharaoh’s protection,(F)
to Egypt’s shade for refuge.(G)
3 But Pharaoh’s protection will be to your shame,
Egypt’s shade(H) will bring you disgrace.(I)
4 Though they have officials in Zoan(J)
and their envoys have arrived in Hanes,
5 everyone will be put to shame
because of a people(K) useless(L) to them,
who bring neither help(M) nor advantage,
but only shame and disgrace.(N)”
6 A prophecy(O) concerning the animals of the Negev:(P)
Through a land of hardship and distress,(Q)
of lions(R) and lionesses,
of adders and darting snakes,(S)
the envoys carry their riches on donkeys’(T) backs,
their treasures(U) on the humps of camels,
to that unprofitable nation,
7 to Egypt, whose help is utterly useless.(V)
Therefore I call her
Rahab(W) the Do-Nothing.
8 Go now, write it on a tablet(X) for them,
inscribe it on a scroll,(Y)
that for the days to come
it may be an everlasting witness.(Z)
9 For these are rebellious(AA) people, deceitful(AB) children,
children unwilling to listen to the Lord’s instruction.(AC)
10 They say to the seers,(AD)
“See no more visions(AE)!”
and to the prophets,
“Give us no more visions of what is right!
Tell us pleasant things,(AF)
prophesy illusions.(AG)
11 Leave this way,(AH)
get off this path,
and stop confronting(AI) us
with the Holy One(AJ) of Israel!”
12 Therefore this is what the Holy One(AK) of Israel says:
“Because you have rejected this message,(AL)
relied on oppression(AM)
and depended on deceit,
13 this sin will become for you
like a high wall,(AN) cracked and bulging,
that collapses(AO) suddenly,(AP) in an instant.
14 It will break in pieces like pottery,(AQ)
shattered so mercilessly
that among its pieces not a fragment will be found
for taking coals from a hearth
or scooping water out of a cistern.”
15 This is what the Sovereign(AR) Lord, the Holy One(AS) of Israel, says:
“In repentance and rest(AT) is your salvation,
in quietness and trust(AU) is your strength,
but you would have none of it.(AV)
16 You said, ‘No, we will flee(AW) on horses.’(AX)
Therefore you will flee!
You said, ‘We will ride off on swift horses.’
Therefore your pursuers will be swift!
17 A thousand will flee
at the threat of one;
at the threat of five(AY)
you will all flee(AZ) away,
till you are left(BA)
like a flagstaff on a mountaintop,
like a banner(BB) on a hill.”
18 Yet the Lord longs(BC) to be gracious to you;
therefore he will rise up to show you compassion.(BD)
For the Lord is a God of justice.(BE)
Blessed are all who wait for him!(BF)
19 People of Zion, who live in Jerusalem, you will weep no more.(BG) How gracious he will be when you cry for help!(BH) As soon as he hears, he will answer(BI) you. 20 Although the Lord gives you the bread(BJ) of adversity and the water of affliction, your teachers(BK) will be hidden(BL) no more; with your own eyes you will see them. 21 Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice(BM) behind you, saying, “This is the way;(BN) walk in it.” 22 Then you will desecrate your idols(BO) overlaid with silver and your images covered with gold;(BP) you will throw them away like a menstrual(BQ) cloth and say to them, “Away with you!(BR)”
23 He will also send you rain(BS) for the seed you sow in the ground, and the food that comes from the land will be rich(BT) and plentiful.(BU) In that day(BV) your cattle will graze in broad meadows.(BW) 24 The oxen(BX) and donkeys that work the soil will eat fodder(BY) and mash, spread out with fork(BZ) and shovel. 25 In the day of great slaughter,(CA) when the towers(CB) fall, streams of water will flow(CC) on every high mountain and every lofty hill. 26 The moon will shine like the sun,(CD) and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the Lord binds up the bruises of his people and heals(CE) the wounds he inflicted.
27 See, the Name(CF) of the Lord comes from afar,
with burning anger(CG) and dense clouds of smoke;
his lips are full of wrath,(CH)
and his tongue is a consuming fire.(CI)
28 His breath(CJ) is like a rushing torrent,(CK)
rising up to the neck.(CL)
He shakes the nations in the sieve(CM) of destruction;
he places in the jaws of the peoples
a bit(CN) that leads them astray.
29 And you will sing
as on the night you celebrate a holy festival;(CO)
your hearts will rejoice(CP)
as when people playing pipes(CQ) go up
to the mountain(CR) of the Lord,
to the Rock(CS) of Israel.
30 The Lord will cause people to hear his majestic voice(CT)
and will make them see his arm(CU) coming down
with raging anger(CV) and consuming fire,(CW)
with cloudburst, thunderstorm(CX) and hail.(CY)
31 The voice of the Lord will shatter Assyria;(CZ)
with his rod he will strike(DA) them down.
32 Every stroke the Lord lays on them
with his punishing club(DB)
will be to the music of timbrels(DC) and harps,
as he fights them in battle with the blows of his arm.(DD)
33 Topheth(DE) has long been prepared;
it has been made ready for the king.
Its fire pit has been made deep and wide,
with an abundance of fire and wood;
the breath(DF) of the Lord,
like a stream of burning sulfur,(DG)
sets it ablaze.(DH)
Woe to Those Who Rely on Egypt
31 Woe(DI) to those who go down to Egypt(DJ) for help,
who rely on horses,(DK)
who trust in the multitude of their chariots(DL)
and in the great strength of their horsemen,
but do not look to the Holy One(DM) of Israel,
or seek help from the Lord.(DN)
2 Yet he too is wise(DO) and can bring disaster;(DP)
he does not take back his words.(DQ)
He will rise up against that wicked nation,(DR)
against those who help evildoers.
3 But the Egyptians(DS) are mere mortals and not God;(DT)
their horses(DU) are flesh and not spirit.
When the Lord stretches out his hand,(DV)
those who help will stumble,
those who are helped(DW) will fall;
all will perish together.(DX)
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
“As a lion(DY) growls,
a great lion over its prey—
and though a whole band of shepherds(DZ)
is called together against it,
it is not frightened by their shouts
or disturbed by their clamor(EA)—
so the Lord Almighty will come down(EB)
to do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights.
5 Like birds hovering(EC) overhead,
the Lord Almighty will shield(ED) Jerusalem;
he will shield it and deliver(EE) it,
he will ‘pass over’(EF) it and will rescue it.”
6 Return,(EG) you Israelites, to the One you have so greatly revolted(EH) against. 7 For in that day(EI) every one of you will reject the idols of silver and gold(EJ) your sinful hands have made.(EK)
8 “Assyria(EL) will fall by no human sword;
a sword, not of mortals, will devour(EM) them.
They will flee before the sword
and their young men will be put to forced labor.(EN)
9 Their stronghold(EO) will fall because of terror;
at the sight of the battle standard(EP) their commanders will panic,(EQ)”
declares the Lord,
whose fire(ER) is in Zion,
whose furnace(ES) is in Jerusalem.
Isaiah 30-31
King James Version
Isaiah 30-31
King James Version
30 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
4 For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
5 They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
6 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
7 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord:
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
15 For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.
16 But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
17 One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on an hill.
18 And therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19 For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
20 And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:
21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
22 Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.
23 Then shall he give the rain of thy seed, that thou shalt sow the ground withal; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.
24 The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the ground shall eat clean provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
25 And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
27 Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
29 Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty One of Israel.
30 And the Lord shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
31 For through the voice of the Lord shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which smote with a rod.
32 And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the Lord shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking will he fight with it.
33 For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
31 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord!
2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.
3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.
4 For thus hath the Lord spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the Lord of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
5 As birds flying, so will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it.
6 Turn ye unto him from whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted.
7 For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.
8 Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited.
9 And he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
