Isaiah 10 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Isa 10:1Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write perverseness;
Isa 10:2to turn aside the needy from justice, and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!
Isa 10:3What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will you flee for help? and where will you leave your glory?
Isa 10:4They shall only bow down under the prisoners, and shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
Isa 10:5Ho Ashshur, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation!
Isa 10:6I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

Isa 10:8For he says, Aren't my princes all of them kings?
Isa 10:9Isn't Kalno as Karkemish? Isn't Hamat as Arpad? Isn't Shomron as Dammesek?
Isa 10:10As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images did excel them of Yerushalayim and of Shomron;
Isa 10:11shall I not, as I have done to Shomron and her idols, so do to Yerushalayim and her idols?
Isa 10:12Therefore it shall happen that, when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Tziyon and on Yerushalayim, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Ashshur, and the glory of his high looks.
Isa 10:13For he has said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I have understanding: and I have removed the bounds of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures, and like a valiant man I have brought down those who sit on thrones:
Isa 10:14and my hand has found as a nest the riches of the peoples; and as one gathers eggs that are forsaken, have I gathered all the eretz: and there was none that moved the wing, or that opened the mouth, or chirped.
Isa 10:15Shall the axe boast itself against him who hews therewith? Shall the saw magnify itself against him who wields it? as if a rod should wield those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up him who is not wood.
Isa 10:16Therefore will the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory there shall be kindled a burning like the burning of fire.
Isa 10:17The light of Yisra'el will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.
Isa 10:18He will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and it shall be as when a standard-bearer faints.
Isa 10:19The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child may write them.

A Remnant Will Return

Isa 10:20It shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Yisra'el, and those who are escaped of the house of Ya`akov, shall no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on the LORD, the Holy One of Yisra'el, in truth.
Isa 10:21A remnant shall return, even the remnant of Ya`akov, to the mighty God.
Isa 10:22For though your people, Yisra'el, be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them shall return: a destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.
