Isaiah 57:7 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 Good people pass away; the godly often die before their time. But no one seems to care or wonder why. No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come.
2 For those who follow godly paths will rest in peace when they die.
3 "But you-- come here, you witches' children, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes!
4 Whom do you mock, making faces and sticking out your tongues? You children of sinners and liars!
5 You worship your idols with great passion beneath the oaks and under every green tree. You sacrifice your children down in the valleys, among the jagged rocks in the cliffs.
6 Your gods are the smooth stones in the valleys. You worship them with liquid offerings and grain offerings. They, not I, are your inheritance. Do you think all this makes me happy?
7 You have committed adultery on every high mountain. There you have worshiped idols and have been unfaithful to me.
8 You have put pagan symbols on your doorposts and behind your doors. You have left me and climbed into bed with these detestable gods. You have committed yourselves to them. You love to look at their naked bodies.
9 You have given olive oil to Molech with many gifts of perfume. You have traveled far, even into the world of the dead, to find new gods to love.
10 You grew weary in your search, but you never gave up. Desire gave you renewed strength, and you did not grow weary.
11 "Are you afraid of these idols? Do they terrify you? Is that why you have lied to me and forgotten me and my words? Is it because of my long silence that you no longer fear me?
12 Now I will expose your so-called good deeds. None of them will help you.
13 Let's see if your idols can save you when you cry to them for help. Why, a puff of wind can knock them down! If you just breathe on them, they fall over! But whoever trusts in me will inherit the land and possess my holy mountain."
14 God says, "Rebuild the road! Clear away the rocks and stones so my people can return from captivity."
15 The high and lofty one who lives in eternity, the Holy One, says this: "I live in the high and holy place with those whose spirits are contrite and humble. I restore the crushed spirit of the humble and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts.
16 For I will not fight against you forever; I will not always be angry. If I were, all people would pass away-- all the souls I have made.
17 I was angry, so I punished these greedy people. I withdrew from them, but they kept going on their own stubborn way.
18 I have seen what they do, but I will heal them anyway! I will lead them. I will comfort those who mourn,
19 bringing words of praise to their lips. May they have abundant peace, both near and far," says the LORD, who heals them.
20 "But those who still reject me are like the restless sea, which is never still but continually churns up mud and dirt.
21 There is no peace for the wicked," says my God.
1 The righteous H6662 perisheth H6 VQQ3MS , and no H369 W-NPAR man H376 NMS layeth H7760 VQQ3MS it to H5921 PREP heart H3820 NMS : and merciful H2617 NMS men H376 NMS are taken away H622 , none H369 considering H995 that H3588 CONJ the righteous H6662 is taken away H622 from M-CMP the evil H7451 D-AFS to come .
2 He shall enter H935 VQY3MS into peace H7965 NMS : they shall rest H5117 VQY3MP in H5921 PREP their beds H4904 , each one walking H1980 in his uprightness H5228 .
3 But draw near H7126 hither H2008 ADV , ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP sons H1121 of the sorceress H6049 , the seed H2233 NMS of the adulterer H5003 and the whore H2181 .
4 Against H5921 PREP whom H4310 IPRO do ye sport yourselves H6026 ? against H5921 PREP whom H4310 IPRO make ye a wide H7337 mouth H6310 , and draw out H748 the tongue H3956 NMS ? are ye H859 PPRO-2MS not H3808 children H3206 of transgression H6588 NMS , a seed H2233 NMS of falsehood H8267 ,
5 Inflaming yourselves H2552 with idols H410 under H8478 NMS every H3605 NMS green H7488 tree H6086 NMS , slaying H7819 the children H3206 in the valleys H5158 under H8478 NMS the clefts H5585 of the rocks H5553 ?
6 Among the smooth H2511 stones of the stream H5158 NMS is thy portion H2506 ; they H1992 PPRO-3MP , they H1992 PPRO-3MP are thy lot H1486 : even H1571 CONJ to them hast thou poured H8210 a drink offering H5262 , thou hast offered H5927 a meat offering H4503 NFS . Should I receive comfort H5162 in H5921 these H428 PMP ?
7 Upon H5921 PREP a lofty H1364 AMS and high H5375 mountain H2022 CMS hast thou set H7760 thy bed H4904 : even H1571 CONJ thither H8033 ADV wentest thou up H5927 to offer H2076 sacrifice H2077 .
8 Behind H310 W-ADV the doors H1817 also and the posts H4201 hast thou set up H7760 thy remembrance H2146 : for H3588 CONJ thou hast discovered H1540 thyself to another than H854 me , and art gone up H5927 ; thou hast enlarged H7337 thy bed H4904 , and made H3772 thee a covenant with H4480 them ; thou lovedst H157 their bed H4904 where H3027 NFS thou sawest H2372 it .
9 And thou wentest H7788 to the king H4428 with ointment H8081 , and didst increase H7235 thy perfumes H7547 , and didst send H7971 thy messengers H6735 far off H5704 PREP , and didst debase H8213 thyself even unto H5704 PREP hell H7585 .
10 Thou art wearied H3021 in the greatness H7230 of thy way H1870 ; yet saidst H559 VQQ2FS thou not H3808 NADV , There is no hope H2976 : thou hast found H4672 the life H2416 CFS of thine hand H3027 ; therefore H3651 ADV thou wast not H3808 NADV grieved H2470 .
11 And of whom H4310 IPRO hast thou been afraid H1672 or feared H3372 , that H3588 CONJ thou hast lied H3576 , and hast not H3808 NADV remembered H2142 me , nor H3808 NADV laid H7760 it to H5921 PREP thy heart H3820 ? have not H3808 ADV I H589 PPRO-1MS held my peace H2814 even of old H5769 , and thou fearest H3372 me not H3808 NADV ?
12 I H589 PPRO-1MS will declare H5046 VHY3MS thy righteousness H6666 , and thy works H4639 ; for they shall not H3808 W-NPAR profit H3276 thee .
13 When thou criest H2199 , let thy companies H6899 deliver H5337 thee ; but the wind H7307 NFS shall carry them all away H5375 VQY3MS ; vanity H1892 NMS shall take H3947 them : but he that putteth his trust H2620 in me shall possess H5157 the land H776 GFS , and shall inherit H3423 my holy H6944 mountain H2022 CMS ;
14 And shall say H559 , Cast ye up H5549 , cast ye up H5549 , prepare H6437 the way H1870 NMS , take up H7311 the stumblingblock H4383 out of the way H1870 of my people H5971 .
15 For H3588 CONJ thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the high H7311 and lofty One H5375 that inhabiteth H7931 VQPMS eternity H5703 NMS , whose name H8034 CMS-3MS is Holy H6918 ; I dwell H7931 in the high H4791 and holy H6918 place , with H854 W-PART him also that is of a contrite H1793 and humble H8217 spirit H7307 NFS , to revive H2421 the spirit H7307 NFS of the humble H8217 AMP , and to revive H2421 the heart H3820 NMS of the contrite ones H1792 .
16 For H3588 CONJ I will not H3808 NADV contend H7378 forever H5769 L-NMS , neither H3808 W-NADV will I be always wroth H7107 : for H3588 CONJ the spirit H7307 NFS should fail H5848 before H6440 me , and the souls H5397 which I H589 PPRO-1MS have made H6213 VQQ1MS .
17 For the iniquity H5771 of his covetousness H1215 was I wroth H7107 , and smote H5221 him : I hid H5641 me , and was wroth H7107 , and he went H1980 W-VQY3MS on frowardly H7726 in the way H1870 B-NMS of his heart H3820 CMS-3MS .
18 I have seen H7200 VQQ1MS his ways H1870 CMP-3MS , and will heal H7495 him : I will lead H5148 him also , and restore H7999 W-VPY1MS comforts H5150 unto him and to his mourners H57 .
19 I create H1254 the fruit H5108 of the lips H8193 ; Peace H7965 NMS , peace H7965 NMS to him that is far off H7350 , and to him that is near H7138 , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; and I will heal H7495 him .
20 But the wicked H7563 are like the troubled H1644 sea H3220 , when H3588 CONJ it cannot H3201 rest H8252 , whose waters H4325 cast up H1644 mire H7516 and dirt H2916 .
21 There is no H369 NPAR peace H7965 NMS , saith H559 VQQ3MS my God H430 , to the wicked H7563 .
