Israel’s Obstinacy

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:1 -

“Hear H8085 this H2088, house H1004 of Jacob H3290, who are named H7121 H8034 Israel H3478

And who came H3318 from the waters H4325 of Judah H3063,

Who swear H7650 by the name H8034 of the LORD H3068

And invoke H2142 the God H430 of Israel H3478,

But not in truth H571 nor H3808 in righteousness H6666.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:2 -

“For they name H7121 themselves after H4480 the holy H6944 city H5892,

And lean H5564 on the God H430 of Israel H3478;

The LORD H3068 of armies H6635 is His name H8034.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:3 -

“I declared H5046 the former H7223 things H7223 long H227 ago H227,

And they went H3318 out H3318 of My mouth H6310, and I proclaimed H8085 them.

Suddenly H6597 I acted H6213, and they came H935 to pass H935.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:4 -

“Because H4480 I know H3045 that you are [fn]obstinate H7186,

And your neck H6203 is an iron H1270 tendon H1517

And your forehead H4696 bronze H5154,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:5 -

Therefore I declared H5046 them to you long H227 ago H227,

Before H2962 [fn]they took H935 place H935 I proclaimed H8085 them to you,

So that you would not say H559, ‘My idol H6090 has done H6213 them,

And my carved H6459 image H6459 and my cast H5262 metal H5262 image H5262 have commanded H6680 them.’

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:6 -

“You have heard H8085; look H2372 at all H3605 this.

And you, will you not declare H5046 it?

I proclaim H8085 to you new H2319 things H2319 from this H6258 time H6258,

Hidden H5341 things H5341 which you have not known H3045.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:7 -

“They are created H1254 now H6258 and not long H227 ago H227;

And before H6440 today H3117 you have not heard H8085 them,

So that you will not say H559, ‘Behold H2009, I knew H3045 them.’

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:8 -

“You have not heard H8085, you have not known H3045.

Even H1571 from long H227 ago H227 your ear H241 has not been open H6605,

Because H3588 I knew H3045 that you would deal H898 very H898 treacherously H898;

And you have been called H7121 a [fn]rebel H6586 from [fn]birth H990.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:9 -

“For the sake H4616 of My name H8034 I delay H748 My wrath H639,

And for My praise H8416 I restrain H2413 it for you,

In order not to cut H3772 you off H3772.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:10 -

“Behold H2009, I have refined H6884 you, but not as silver H3701;

I have tested H977 you in the furnace H3564 of affliction H6040.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:11 -

“For My own sake H4616, for My own sake H4616, I will act H6213;

For how H349 can My name be profaned H2490?

And I will not give H5414 My glory H3519 to another H312.

Rescue Promised

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:12 -

“Listen H8085 to Me, Jacob H3290, Israel H3478 [fn]whom I called H7121;

I am He, I am the first H7223, I am also H637 the last H314.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:13 -

“Assuredly H637 My hand H3027 founded H3245 the earth H776,

And My right H3225 hand H3225 spread H2946 out H2946 the heavens H8064;

When I call H7121 to them, they stand H5975 together H3162.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:14 -

“Assemble H6908, all H3605 of you, and listen H8085!

Who H4310 among them has declared H5046 these H428 things H428?

The LORD H3068 loves H157 him; he will carry H6213 out H6213 His good H2656 pleasure H2656 against Babylon H894,

And His arm H2220 will be against the Chaldeans H3778.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:15 -

“I, yes I, have spoken H1696; indeed H637 I have called H7121 him,

I have brought H935 him, and He will make H6743 his ways H1870 successful H6743.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:16 -

“Come H7126 near H7126 to Me, listen H8085 to this H2088:

From the beginning H7218 I have not spoken H1696 in secret H5643,

From the time H6256 it took H1961 place H1961, I was there H8033.

And now H6258 the Lord H136 [fn]GOD H3068 has sent H7971 Me, and His Spirit H7307.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:17 -

This H3541 is H3541 what H3541 the LORD H3068 says H559, He who is your Redeemer H1350, the Holy H6918 One H6918 of Israel H3478:

“I am the LORD H3068 your God H430, who teaches H3925 you to benefit H3276,

Who leads H1869 you in the way H1870 you should go H1980.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:18 -

“If H3863 only H3863 you had paid H7181 attention H7181 to My commandments H4687!

Then your [fn]well-being H7965 would have been H1961 like a river H5104,

And your righteousness H6666 like the waves H1530 of the sea H3220.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:19 -

“Your [fn]descendants H2233 would have been H1961 like the sand H2344,

And [fn]your offspring H6631 H4578 like its grains H4579;

Their name H8034 would never H3808 be eliminated H3772 or destroyed H8045 from My presence H6440.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:20 -

Go H3318 out H3318 from Babylon H894! Flee H1272 from the Chaldeans H3778!

Declare H5046 with the sound H6963 of joyful H7440 shouting H7440, proclaim H8085 this H2088,

Send H3318 it out H3318 to the end H7097 of the earth H776;

Say H559, “The LORD H3068 has redeemed H1350 His servant H5650 Jacob H3290.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 48:21 -

They did not thirst H6770 when He led H1980 them through the deserts H2723.

He made the water H4325 flow H5140 out of the rock H6697 for them;

He split H1234 the rock H6697 and the water H4325 gushed H2100 out.

“There H369 is H369 no H369 peace H7965 for the wicked H7563,” says H559 the LORD H3068.
