darkness, obscurity
darkness
secret place
Strong's Number H2822 matches the Hebrew חֹשֶׁךְ (ḥōšeḵ),
which occurs 14 times in 13 verses in 'Isa'
in the WLC Hebrew.
Woe (judgment is coming) to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness;
Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
And in that day they will roar against them (Judah) like the roaring of the sea.
And if one looks to the land, in fact, there is darkness and distress;
Even the light will be darkened by its clouds.
The people who walk in [spiritual] darkness
[fn]Will see a great Light;
Those who live in the dark land,
The Light will shine on them.
On that day the deaf will hear the words of a book,
And out of their gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see [the words of the book].
To open the eyes of the blind,
To bring out prisoners from the dungeon
And those who sit in darkness from the prison.
“I will give you the treasures of darkness [the hoarded treasures]
And the hidden riches of secret places,
So that you may know that it is I,
The LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you (Cyrus the Great) by your name.
The One forming light and creating darkness,
Causing peace and creating disaster;
I am the LORD who does all these things.
“I have not spoken in secret,
In a corner of a land of darkness;
I did not say to the descendants of Jacob,
‘Seek Me in vain [with no benefit for yourselves].’
I, the LORD, speak righteousness [the truth—trustworthy, a straightforward correlation between deeds and words],
Declaring things that are upright.
“Sit in silence, and go into darkness,
O daughter of the Chaldeans;
For you will no longer be called
The queen of kingdoms.
Saying to those who are bound and captured, ‘Go forth,’
And to those who are in [spiritual] darkness, ‘Show yourselves [come into the light of the Savior].’
They will feed along the roads [on which they travel],
And their pastures will be on all the bare heights.
And if you offer yourself to [assist] the hungry
And satisfy the [fn]need of the afflicted,
Then your light will rise in darkness
And your gloom will become like midday.
Therefore justice is far from us,
And righteousness does not overtake us.
We [expectantly] hope for light, but only see darkness;
We hope for gleam of light, but we walk in darkness and gloom.
