Isaiah 54

Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB

1 Rejoice, O barren, thou <em>that</em> didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud with joy, thou <em>that</em> didst not travail with child: for more <em>shall be</em> the sons of the desolate than the sons of the married wife, said the LORD.

2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

3 for thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left, and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

4 Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

5 For thy Maker <em>shall be</em> thine husband; the LORD of the hosts <em>is</em> his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

6 For as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit has the LORD called thee, and <em>as</em> a young woman who is put away, said thy God.

7 For a small moment I have forsaken thee; but with great mercies I will gather thee.

8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with eternal mercy I will have compassion on thee, said the LORD thy Redeemer.

9 For this <em>is as</em> the waters of Noah unto me: for <em>as</em> I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so I have sworn that I would not be wroth <em>again</em> with thee, nor reprehend thee.

10 For the mountains shall be removed, and the hills shall tremble; but my mercy shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be changed, said the LORD that has mercy on thee.

11 O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, <em>and</em> not comforted, behold, I will cement thy stones upon carbuncle and lay thy foundations upon sapphires.

12 And I will make thy windows of precious stones, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of stones of great price.

13 And all thy sons <em>shall be</em> taught of the LORD; and the peace of thy sons shall be multiplied.

14 With righteousness shalt thou be adorned: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear <em>it</em>; and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.

15 If anyone should conspire against thee, it <em>shall be</em> without me, whosoever would conspire against thee shall fall before thee.

16 Behold, I have created the smith that blows the coals in the fire, and that brings forth the instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue <em>that</em> shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This <em>is</em> the heritage of the slaves of the LORD, and their justice from me, said the LORD.

New International Version NIV

1 “Sing, barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,” says the LORD.

2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.

3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities.

4 “Do not be afraid; you will not be put to shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.

5 For your Maker is your husband— the LORD Almighty is his name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.

6 The LORD will call you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit— a wife who married young, only to be rejected,” says your God.

7 “For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back.

8 In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.

9 “To me this is like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth. So now I have sworn not to be angry with you, never to rebuke you again.

10 Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

11 “Afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted, I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,your foundations with lapis lazuli.

12 I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.

13 All your children will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their peace.

14 In righteousness you will be established: Tyranny will be far from you; you will have nothing to fear. Terror will be far removed; it will not come near you.

15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you.

16 “See, it is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work. And it is I who have created the destroyer to wreak havoc;

17 no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me,” declares the LORD.
