Isaiah 40:1 (RV) Revised Version

1 Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.
2 Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned; that she hath received of the LORD�S hand double for all her sins.
3 The voice of one that crieth, Prepare ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:
5 and the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
6 The voice of one saying, Cry. And one said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:
7 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth; because the breath of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.
8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.
9 O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain: O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold, your God!
10 Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a mighty one, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his recompence before him.
11 He shall feed his flock like a shepherd, he shall gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom, {cf15i and} shall gently lead those that give suck.
12 Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?
13 Who hath directed the spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor hath taught him?
14 With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding?
15 Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing.
16 And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering.
17 All the nations are as nothing before him; they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.
18 To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him?
19 The graven image, a workman melted {cf15i it}, and the goldsmith spreadeth it over with gold, and casteth {cf15i for it} silver chains.
20 He that is too impoverished for {cf15i such} an oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to set up a graven image, that shall not be moved.
21 Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?
22 {cf15i It is} he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
23 that bringeth princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.
24 Yea, they have not been planted; yea, they have not been sown; yea, their stock hath not taken root in the earth: moreover he bloweth upon them, and they wither, and the whirlwind taketh them away as stubble.
25 To whom then will ye liken me, that I should be equal {cf15i to him}? saith the Holy One.
26 Lift up your eyes on high, and see who hath created these, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by name; by the greatness of his might, and for that he is strong in power, not one is lacking.
27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed away from my God?
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard? the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary; there is no searching of his understanding.
29 He giveth power to the faint; and to him that hath no might he increaseth strength.
30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31 but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.
1 Comfort H5162 ye, comfort H5162 ye my people, H5971 saith H559 your God. H430
2 Speak H1696 ye comfortably H5921 H3820 to Jerusalem, H3389 and cry H7121 unto H413 her, that H3588 her warfare H6635 is accomplished, H4390 that H3588 her iniquity H5771 is pardoned: H7521 for H3588 she hath received H3947 of the LORD's H3068 hand H4480 H3027 double H3718 for all H3605 her sins. H2403
3 The voice H6963 of him that crieth H7121 in the wilderness, H4057 Prepare H6437 ye the way H1870 of the LORD, H3068 make straight H3474 in the desert H6160 a highway H4546 for our God. H430
4 Every H3605 valley H1516 shall be exalted, H5375 and every H3605 mountain H2022 and hill H1389 shall be made low: H8213 and the crooked H6121 shall be made H1961 straight, H4334 and the rough places H7406 plain: H1237
5 And the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 shall be revealed, H1540 and all H3605 flesh H1320 shall see H7200 it together: H3162 for H3588 the mouth H6310 of the LORD H3068 hath spoken H1696 it .
6 The voice H6963 said, H559 Cry. H7121 And he said, H559 What H4100 shall I cry H7121 ? All H3605 flesh H1320 is grass, H2682 and all H3605 the goodliness H2617 thereof is as the flower H6731 of the field: H7704
7 The grass H2682 withereth, H3001 the flower H6731 fadeth: H5034 because H3588 the spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 bloweth H5380 upon it: surely H403 the people H5971 is grass. H2682
8 The grass H2682 withereth, H3001 the flower H6731 fadeth: H5034 but the word H1697 of our God H430 shall stand H6965 forever. H5769
9 O Zion, H6726 that bringest good tidings, H1319 get thee up H5927 into H5921 the high H1364 mountain; H2022 O Jerusalem, H3389 that bringest good tidings, H1319 lift up H7311 thy voice H6963 with strength; H3581 lift it up, H7311 be not afraid H3372 H408 ; say H559 unto the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 Behold H2009 your God H430 !
10 Behold H2009 , the Lord H136 GOD H3069 will come H935 with strong H2389 hand , and his arm H2220 shall rule H4910 for him: behold, H2009 his reward H7939 is with H854 him , and his work H6468 before H6440 him.
11 He shall feed H7462 his flock H5739 like a shepherd: H7462 he shall gather H6908 the lambs H2922 with his arm, H2220 and carry H5375 them in his bosom, H2436 and shall gently lead H5095 those that are with young. H5763
12 Who H4310 hath measured H4058 the waters H4325 in the hollow of his hand, H8168 and meted out H8505 heaven H8064 with the span, H2239 and comprehended H3557 the dust H6083 of the earth H776 in a measure, H7991 and weighed H8254 the mountains H2022 in scales, H6425 and the hills H1389 in a balance H3976 ?
13 Who H4310 hath directed H8505 H853 the Spirit H7307 of the LORD, H3068 or being his counselor H376 H6098 hath taught H3045 him?
14 H853 With whom H4310 took he counsel, H3289 and who instructed H995 him , and taught H3925 him in the path H734 of judgment, H4941 and taught H3925 him knowledge, H1847 and showed H3045 to him the way H1870 of understanding H8394 ?
15 Behold H2005 , the nations H1471 are as a drop H4752 of a bucket H4480 H1805 , and are counted H2803 as the small dust H7834 of the balance: H3976 behold, H2005 he taketh up H5190 the isles H339 as a very little thing. H1851
16 And Lebanon H3844 is not H369 sufficient H1767 to burn, H1197 nor H369 the beasts H2416 thereof sufficient H1767 for a burnt offering. H5930
17 All H3605 nations H1471 before H5048 him are as nothing; H369 and they are counted H2803 to him less than nothing H4480 H657 , and vanity. H8414
18 To H413 whom H4310 then will ye liken H1819 God H410 ? or what H4100 likeness H1823 will ye compare H6186 unto him?
19 The workman H2796 melteth H5258 a graven image, H6459 and the goldsmith H6884 spreadeth it over H7554 with gold, H2091 and casteth H6884 silver H3701 chains. H7577
20 He that is so impoverished H5533 that he hath no oblation H8641 chooseth H977 a tree H6086 that will not H3808 rot; H7537 he seeketh H1245 unto him a cunning H2450 workman H2796 to prepare H3559 a graven image, H6459 that shall not H3808 be moved. H4131
21 Have ye not H3808 known H3045 ? have ye not H3808 heard H8085 ? hath it not H3808 been told H5046 you from the beginning H4480 H7218 ? have ye not H3808 understood H995 from the foundations H4480 H4146 of the earth H776 ?
22 It is he that sitteth H3427 upon H5921 the circle H2329 of the earth, H776 and the inhabitants H3427 thereof are as grasshoppers; H2284 that stretcheth out H5186 the heavens H8064 as a curtain, H1852 and spreadeth them out H4969 as a tent H168 to dwell in: H3427
23 That bringeth H5414 the princes H7336 to nothing; H369 he maketh H6213 the judges H8199 of the earth H776 as vanity. H8414
24 Yea H637 , they shall not H1077 be planted; H5193 yea, H637 they shall not H1077 be sown: H2232 yea, H637 their stock H1503 shall not H1077 take root H8327 in the earth: H776 and he shall also H1571 blow H5398 upon them , and they shall wither, H3001 and the whirlwind H5591 shall take them away H5375 as stubble. H7179
25 To H413 whom H4310 then will ye liken H1819 me , or shall I be equal H7737 ? saith H559 the Holy One. H6918
26 Lift up H5375 your eyes H5869 on high, H4791 and behold H7200 who H4310 hath created H1254 these H428 things , that bringeth out H3318 their host H6635 by number: H4557 he calleth H7121 them all H3605 by names H8034 by the greatness H4480 H7230 of his might, H202 for that he is strong H533 in power; H3581 not H3808 one H376 faileth. H5737
27 Why H4100 sayest H559 thou , O Jacob, H3290 and speakest, H1696 O Israel, H3478 My way H1870 is hid H5641 from the LORD H4480 H3068 , and my judgment H4941 is passed over H5674 from my God H4480 H430 ?
28 Hast thou not H3808 known H3045 ? hast thou not H3808 heard, H8085 that the everlasting H5769 God, H430 the LORD, H3068 the Creator H1254 of the ends H7098 of the earth, H776 fainteth H3286 not, H3808 neither H3808 is weary H3021 ? there is no H369 searching H2714 of his understanding. H8394
29 He giveth H5414 power H3581 to the faint; H3287 and to them that have no H369 might H202 he increaseth H7235 strength. H6109
30 Even the youths H5288 shall faint H3286 and be weary, H3021 and the young men H970 shall utterly fall H3782 H3782 :
31 But they that wait upon H6960 the LORD H3068 shall renew H2498 their strength; H3581 they shall mount up H5927 with wings H83 as eagles; H5404 they shall run, H7323 and not H3808 be weary; H3021 and they shall walk, H1980 and not H3808 faint. H3286
