Isaiah 66:4-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 66
4
So I will choose their punishments
And bring on them what they dread.
Because I called, but no one answered;
I spoke, but they did not listen.
Instead, they did evil in My sight
And chose that in which I did not delight.'
5
Hear the word of the
Lord
, you who tremble at His word:
'Your brothers who hate you, who exclude you on account of My name,
Have said, ‘Let the
Lord
be glorified, so that we may see your joy.’
But they will be put to shame.
6
A sound of uproar from the city, a voice from the temple,
The voice of the
Lord
who is dealing retribution to His enemies.
7
'Before she was in labor, she delivered;
Before her pain came, she gave birth to a boy.
8
Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things?
Can a land be born in one day?
Can a nation be given birth all at once?
As soon as Zion was in labor, she also delivered her sons.
9
Shall I bring to the point of birth but not give delivery?' says the
Lord
.
'Or shall I who gives delivery shut
the womb?
' says your God.
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,
11
So that you may nurse and be satisfied with her comforting breasts,
So that you may drink fully and be delighted with her bountiful breasts.'
King James Version
Chapter 66
4
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5
Hear the word of the
Lord
, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the
Lord
be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6
A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the
Lord
that rendereth recompence to his enemies.
7
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
8
Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
9
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the
Lord
: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.
10
Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:
11
That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 66
4
So I will choose their punishment,
and I will bring on them what they dread
because I called and no one answered;
I spoke and they did not listen;
they did what was evil in my sight
and chose what I did not delight in.
5
You who tremble at his word,
hear the word of the
Lord
:
"Your brothers who hate and exclude you
for my name’s sake have said,
‘Let the
Lord
be glorified
so that we can see your joy!’
But they will be put to shame."
6
A sound of uproar from the city!
A voice from the temple—
the voice of the
Lord
,
paying back his enemies what they deserve!
7
Before Zion was in labor, she gave birth;
before she was in pain, she delivered a boy.
8
Who has heard of such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Can a land be born in one day
or a nation be delivered in an instant?
Yet as soon as Zion was in labor,
she gave birth to her sons.
9
"Will I bring a baby to the point of birth
and not deliver it?"
says the
Lord
;
"or will I who deliver, close the womb?"
says your God.
10
Be glad for Jerusalem and rejoice over her,
all who love her.
Rejoice greatly with her,
all who mourn over her—
11
so that you may nurse and be satisfied
from her comforting breast
and drink deeply and delight yourselves
from her glorious breasts.
New Living Translation
Chapter 66
4
I will send them great trouble —
all the things they feared.
For when I called, they did not answer.
When I spoke, they did not listen.
They deliberately sinned before my very eyes
and chose to do what they know I despise.'
5
Hear this message from the
Lord
,
all you who tremble at his words:
'Your own people hate you
and throw you out for being loyal to my name.
‘Let the
Lord
be honored!’ they scoff.
‘Be joyful in him!’
But they will be put to shame.
6
What is all the commotion in the city?
What is that terrible noise from the Temple?
It is the voice of the
Lord
taking vengeance against his enemies.
7
'Before the birth pains even begin,
Jerusalem gives birth to a son.
8
Who has ever seen anything as strange as this?
Who ever heard of such a thing?
Has a nation ever been born in a single day?
Has a country ever come forth in a mere moment?
But by the time Jerusalem’s birth pains begin,
her children will be born.
9
Would I ever bring this nation to the point of birth
and then not deliver it?' asks the
Lord
.
'No! I would never keep this nation from being born,'
says your God.
10
'Rejoice with Jerusalem!
Be glad with her, all you who love her
and all you who mourn for her.
11
Drink deeply of her glory
even as an infant drinks at its mother’s comforting breasts.'
English Standard Version
Chapter 66
4
I also will choose harsh treatment for them
and bring their fears upon them,
because when I called, no one answered,
when I spoke, they did not listen;
but they did what was evil in my eyes
and chose that in which I did not delight."
5
Hear the word of the
Lord
,
you who tremble at his word:
"Your brothers who hate you
and cast you out for my name 's sake
have said, ‘Let the
Lord
be glorified,
that we may see your joy’;
but it is they who shall be put to shame.
6
"The sound of an uproar from the city!
A sound from the temple!
The sound of the
Lord
,
rendering recompense to his enemies!
7
"Before she was in labor
she gave birth;
before her pain came upon her
she delivered a son.
8
Who has heard such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Shall a land be born in one day?
Shall a nation be brought forth in one moment?
For as soon as Zion was in labor
she brought forth her children.
9
Shall I bring to the point of birth and not cause to bring forth?"
says the
Lord
;
"shall I, who cause to bring forth, shut the womb?"
says your God.
10
"Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her,
all you who love her;
rejoice with her in joy,
all you who mourn over her;
11
that you may nurse and be satisfied
from her consoling breast;
that you may drink deeply with delight
from her glorious abundance."
New International Version
Chapter 66
4
so I also will choose harsh treatment for them
and will bring on them what they dread.
For when I called, no one answered,
when I spoke, no one listened.
They did evil in my sight
and chose what displeases me."
5
Hear the word of the
Lord
,
you who tremble at his word:
"Your own people who hate you,
and exclude you because of my name, have said,
‘Let the
Lord
be glorified,
that we may see your joy!’
Yet they will be put to shame.
6
Hear that uproar from the city,
hear that noise from the temple!
It is the sound of the
Lord
repaying his enemies all they deserve.
7
"Before she goes into labor,
she gives birth;
before the pains come upon her,
she delivers a son.
8
Who has ever heard of such things?
Who has ever seen things like this?
Can a country be born in a day
or a nation be brought forth in a moment?
Yet no sooner is Zion in labor
than she gives birth to her children.
9
Do I bring to the moment of birth
and not give delivery?" says the
Lord
.
"Do I close up the womb
when I bring to delivery?" says your God.
10
"Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her,
all you who love her;
rejoice greatly with her,
all you who mourn over her.
11
For you will nurse and be satisfied
at her comforting breasts;
you will drink deeply
and delight in her overflowing abundance."
New King James Version
Chapter 66
4
So will I choose their delusions,
And bring their fears on them;
Because, when I called, no one answered,
When I spoke they did not hear;
But they did evil before My eyes,
And chose
that
in which I do not delight.”
5
Hear the word of the
Lord
,
You who tremble at His word:
“Your brethren who hated you,
Who cast you out for My name’s sake, said,
‘Let the
Lord
be glorified,
That we may see your joy.’
But they shall be ashamed.”
6
The sound of noise from the city!
A voice from the temple!
The voice of the
Lord
,
Who fully repays His enemies!
7
“Before she was in labor, she gave birth;
Before her pain came,
She delivered a male child.
8
Who has heard such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day?
Or
shall a nation be born at once?
For as soon as Zion was in labor,
She gave birth to her children.
9
Shall I bring to the time of birth, and not cause delivery?” says the
Lord
.
“Shall I who cause delivery shut up
the womb?
” says your God.
10
“Rejoice with Jerusalem,
And be glad with her, all you who love her;
Rejoice for joy with her, all you who mourn for her;
11
That you may feed and be satisfied
With the consolation of her bosom,
That you may drink deeply and be delighted
With the abundance of her glory.”
