Isaiah 32 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Isa 32:1Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice.
Isa 32:2A man shall be as a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a great rock in a weary land.
Isa 32:3The eyes of those who see shall not be dim, and the ears of those who hear shall listen.
Isa 32:4The heart of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
Isa 32:5The fool shall be no more called noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
Isa 32:6For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice profanity, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
Isa 32:7The instruments of the churl are evil: he devises wicked devices to destroy the humble with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
Isa 32:8But the noble devises noble things; and in noble things shall he continue.
Isa 32:9Rise up, you women who are at ease, and hear my voice; you careless daughters, give ear to my speech.
Isa 32:10For days beyond a year shall you be troubled, you careless women; for the vintage shall fail, the harvest shall not come.
Isa 32:11Tremble, you women who are at ease; be troubled, you careless ones; strip yourselves, and make yourselves naked, and gird sackcloth on your loins.
Isa 32:12They shall strike on the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
Isa 32:13On the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.
Isa 32:14For the palace shall be forsaken; the populous city shall be deserted; the hill and the watch-tower shall be for dens forever, a joy of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks;
Isa 32:15until the Spirit be poured on us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be esteemed as a forest.
Isa 32:16Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.
Isa 32:17The work of righteousness shall be shalom; and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
Isa 32:18My people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.
Isa 32:19But it shall hail in the downfall of the forest; and the city shall be utterly laid low.
Isa 32:20Blessed are you who sow beside all waters, who send forth the feet of the ox and the donkey.
