Isaiah 65 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

A Rebellious People

Isa 65:1I am sought out of them that inquired not for me, I am found of them that sought me not; I have said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.

Isa 65:2

Isa 65:2I have stretched out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, who walk in a way not good, after their own thoughts;

Isa 65:3

Isa 65:3the people that provoke me to anger continually to my face, sacrificing in gardens and burning incense upon the bricks;

Isa 65:4

Isa 65:4who sit down among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

Isa 65:5

Isa 65:5who say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.

Isa 65:6

Isa 65:6Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,

Isa 65:7

Isa 65:7your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith Jehovah, who have burned incense upon the mountains, and outraged me upon the hills; and I will measure their former work into their bosom.

Isa 65:8

Isa 65:8Thus saith Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and it is said, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.

Isa 65:9

Isa 65:9And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah a possessor of my mountains; and mine elect shall possess it, and my servants shall dwell there.

Isa 65:10

Isa 65:10And the Sharon shall be a fold for flocks, and the valley of Achor a couching-place of the herds, for my people that have sought me.

Isa 65:11

Isa 65:11But ye who forsake Jehovah, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Gad, and fill up mixed wine unto Meni:

Isa 65:12

Isa 65:12I will even assign you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down in the slaughter; because I called, and ye did not answer, I spoke, and ye did not hear; but ye did what was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delight not.

Isa 65:13

Isa 65:13Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, my servants shall eat, and *ye* shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, and *ye* shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, and *ye* shall be ashamed;

Isa 65:14

Isa 65:14behold, my servants shall sing aloud for gladness of heart, and *ye* shall cry out for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.

Isa 65:15

Isa 65:15And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto mine elect; for the Lord Jehovah will slay thee, and will call his servants by another name:

Isa 65:16

Isa 65:16so that he who blesseth himself in the land shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the land shall swear by the God of truth: because the former troubles shall be forgotten, and because they shall be hidden from mine eyes.

New Heavens and a New Earth

Isa 65:17

Isa 65:17For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

Isa 65:18

Isa 65:18But be glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.

Isa 65:19

Isa 65:19And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and will joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

Isa 65:20

Isa 65:20There shall be no more thenceforth an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not completed his days; for the youth shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.

Isa 65:21

Isa 65:21And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof:

Isa 65:22

Isa 65:22they shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

Isa 65:23

Isa 65:23They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of Jehovah, and their offspring with them.

Isa 65:24

Isa 65:24And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

Isa 65:25

Isa 65:25The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith Jehovah.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
