Isaiah 9Isaiah 10Hebrews 5.11->Hebrews 6.1-20Isaiah 9
1
Nevertheless the dimness [shall] not [be] such as [was] in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict [her by] the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.
2
The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
3
Thou hast multiplied the nation, [and] not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, [and] as [men] rejoice when they divide the spoil.
4
For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.
5
For every battle of the warrior [is] with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood but [this] shall be with burning [and] fuel of fire.
6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7
Of the increase of [his] government and peace [there shall be] no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
8
The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.
9
And all the people shall know, [even] Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,
10
The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change [them into] cedars.
11
Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together
12
The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
13
For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.
14
Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
15
The ancient and honourable, he [is] the head and the prophet that teacheth lies, he [is] the tail.
16
For the leaders of this people cause [them] to err and [they that are] led of them [are] destroyed.
17
Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one [is] an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
18
For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up [like] the lifting up of smoke.
19
Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother.
20
And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm:
21
Manasseh, Ephraim and Ephraim, Manasseh: [and] they together [shall be] against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
Isaiah 10
1
Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness [which] they have prescribed
2
To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and [that] they may rob the fatherless!
3
And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation [which] shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?
4
Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
5
O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation.
6
I will send him against an hypocritical 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.
7
Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so but [it is] in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few.
8
For he saith, [Are] not my princes altogether kings?
9
[Is] not Calno as Carchemish? [is] not Hamath as Arpad? [is] not Samaria as Damascus?
10
As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria
11
Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?
12
Wherefore it shall come to pass, [that] when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.
13
For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done [it], and by my wisdom for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant [man]:
14
And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs [that are] left, have I gathered all the earth and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped.
15
Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? [or] shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod should shake [itself] against them that lift it up, [or] as if the staff should lift up [itself, as if it were] no wood.
16
Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire.
17
And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day
18
And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth.
19
And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.
20
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21
The remnant shall return, [even] the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.
22
For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, [yet] a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness.
23
For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land.
24
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.
25
For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.
26
And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and [as] his rod [was] upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt.
27
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
28
He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages:
29
They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba Ramah is afraid Gibeah of Saul is fled.
30
Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth.
31
Madmenah is removed the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.
32
As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand [against] the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33
Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature [shall be] hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled.
34
And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.
Hebrews 5
11->
11
Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
12
For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13
For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14
But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Hebrews 6
1-20
1
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2
Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3
And this will we do, if God permit.
4
For [it is] impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5
And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6
If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put [him] to an open shame.
7
For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
8
But that which beareth thorns and briers [is] rejected, and [is] nigh unto cursing whose end [is] to be burned.
9
But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
10
For God [is] not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
11
And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
12
That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
13
For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
14
Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
15
And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
16
For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation [is] to them an end of all strife.
17
Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath:
18
That by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
19
Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil
20
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, [even] Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
