Isaiah 16

About Isaiah Isaiah warns of judgment and promises comfort, a coming king, a suffering servant and a new creation.

Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.SelectedIsaiah 16:1Ask

For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon.SelectedIsaiah 16:2Ask

Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth.SelectedIsaiah 16:3Ask

Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.SelectedIsaiah 16:4Ask

And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.SelectedIsaiah 16:5Ask

We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so.SelectedIsaiah 16:6Ask

Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, every one shall howl: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken.SelectedIsaiah 16:7Ask

For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come even unto Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea.SelectedIsaiah 16:8Ask

Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.SelectedIsaiah 16:9Ask

And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease.SelectedIsaiah 16:10Ask

Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kirharesh.SelectedIsaiah 16:11Ask

And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.SelectedIsaiah 16:12Ask

This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.SelectedIsaiah 16:13Ask

But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble.SelectedIsaiah 16:14Ask
