Isaiah 65

65:1I became apparent to the ones not seeking for me. I was found by the ones not asking for me. I said, Behold, I am -- to the nation, the ones who did not call of me by name.

65:2I spread forth my hands the entire day to a people resisting persuasion and speaking contrary; the ones not having gone the good way, but after their sins.

65:3This people, the one provoking me, is always before me. They sacrifice in the gardens, and they burn incense upon the bricks to the demons which are not.

65:4And in the tombs in the caves they sleep for the sake of dreams; the ones eating meat of a pig, and the broth of sacrifices. All their vessels are tainted.

65:5The ones saying, Be at a distance from me, you should not approach me, for I am clean. This is the smoke of my rage; a fire burns with it all the days.

65:6Behold, it is written in my presence, I shall not keep silent until whenever I recompense. And I will recompense unto their bosom

65:7their sins, and the ones of their fathers, says the lord, the ones that burnt incense upon the mountains, and berated me upon the hills. I will recompense their works into their bosom.

65:8Thus says the lord, In which manner the grape-stone shall be found in the cluster of grapes, and they shall say, You should not lay it waste, for there is a blessing in it; so I will do because of the ones serving me -- because of this one in no way shall I destroy all.

65:9And I shall lead out the one of the seed of Jacob, and the one of Judah. And he shall inherit my holy mountain, and my chosen and my servants shall inherit it, and they shall dwell there.

65:10And there shall be in the grove folds of flocks; and the ravine of Achor shall be for a resting place of herds for my people, the ones who sought me.

65:11But you are the ones having abandoned me, and having forgotten my holy mountain, and are preparing a table to the demon, and filling a mixture to good luck.

65:12I will deliver you unto the sword. You shall all fall by slaughter, for I called you and you hearkened not; I spoke, and you disregarded, and you did the wicked thing before me, and what I did not want you chose.

65:13On account of this, Thus says the lord, Behold, the ones serving to me shall eat, but you shall hunger. Behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall thirst. Behold, the ones serving me shall be glad, but you shall be ashamed.

65:14Behold, the ones serving me shall exult in gladness, but you shall cry out because of the misery of your heart; and from the destruction of your spirit you shall shriek.

65:15For you shall leave behind your name for a glut to my chosen, and the lord shall do away with you. But to the ones that serve to me, they shall be called by a new name,

65:16which shall be blessed upon the earth. For they shall bless the true God. And the ones swearing by an oath upon the earth shall swear by an oath on the true God. For they shall forget their first affliction, and it shall not ascend unto their heart.

65:17For there will be the new heaven, and the new earth. And in no way shall they remember the former things, nor in any way shall it come upon their heart.

65:18But they shall find in her gladness and a leap for joy. For behold, I make Jerusalem a leap for joy, and over my people for gladness.

65:19And I shall exult over Jerusalem, and shall be glad over my people. And no longer shall there be heard in her a voice of weeping, nor a voice of crying;

65:20nor in any way shall there be yet an untimely miscarriage, nor an old man who shall not fill up his time. For the young man will be a hundred years old, and the sinner will be accursed dying at a hundred years old.

65:21And they shall build residences, and they shall dwell in them. And they shall plant vineyards, and they shall eat their produce, and shall drink the wine.

65:22In no way shall they build and another dwell therein. And in no way shall they plant and another eat of it. For according to the days of the life of a tree will be the days of my people, for the works of their hands shall grow old.

65:23And my chosen shall not tire in empty things, nor shall they produce children for a curse; for it is a seed being blessed by God, and their progeny with them.

65:24And it will be before their crying out, I will hearken unto them; yet during their speaking I will say, What is it?

65:25Then wolves and lambs shall graze together; and the lion shall eat straw as an ox; and the serpent shall eat of the earth as bread; they shall not do wrong nor lay waste upon my holy mountain, says the lord.
