Isaiah 57

1 The blessed death of the righteous. 3 God reproveth the Jews for their whorish idolatry. 13 He giveth evangelical promises to the penitent.

 57:1 ¶ The righteous 6662 perisheth, 6 z8804 and no x369 man 376 layeth 7760 z8802 it to x5921 heart; 3820 and mercifull 2617 men y582 x376 are taken away 622 z8737 none x369 considering 995 z8688 that x3588 the righteous 6662 is taken away 622 z8738 from 6440 x4480 the euill 7451 [to come].

 57:2 Hee shall enter 935 z8799 [into] peace: 7965 they shall rest 5117 z8799 in x5921 their beds, 4904 each one walking 1980 z8802 [in] his vprightnesse. 5228

 57:3 ¶ But draw neere 7126 z8798 hither, x2008 yee x859 sonnes 1121 of the sorceresse, 6049 z8781 the seed 2233 of the adulterer, 5003 z8764 and the whore. 2181 z8799

 57:4 Against x5921 whom x4310 doe ye sport y6026 z8691 your selues? x6026 against x5921 whom x4310 make ye a wide 7337 z8686 mouth, 6310 [and] draw out 748 z8686 the tongue? 3956 [are] ye x859 not x3808 children 3206 of transgression, 6588 a seede 2233 of falsehood? 8267

 57:5 Inflaming y2552 z8737 your selues x2552 with idoles 410 vnder x8478 euery x3605 greene 7488 tree, 6086 slaying 7819 z8802 the children 3206 in the valleys 5158 vnder x8478 the cliftes 5585 of the rockes? 5553

 57:6 Among the smooth 2511 stones of the streame 5158 is thy portion; 2506 they, x1992 they x1992 [are] thy lot: 1486 euen x1571 to them hast thou powred 8210 z8804 a drinke offering, 5262 thou hast offered 5927 z8689 a meate offering. 4503 Should I receiue comfort 5162 z8735 in x5921 these? x428

 57:7 Upon x5921 a loftie 1364 and high 5375 z8737 mountaine 2022 hast thou set 7760 z8804 thy bed: 4904 euen x1571 thither x8033 wentest thou vp 5927 z8804 to offer 2076 z8800 sacrifice. 2077

 57:8 Behinde 310 the doores 1817 also and the posts 4201 hast thou set vp 7760 z8804 thy remembrance: 2146 for x3588 thou hast discouered 1540 z8765 thy selfe [to an other] then x4480 x854 mee, and art gone vp: 5927 z8799 thou hast enlarged 7337 z8689 thy bed, 4904 and made 3772 z8799 a couenant with x4480 them: thou louedst 157 z8804 their bed 4904 where 3027 thou sawest 2372 z8804 it.

 57:9 And thou wentest 7788 z8799 to the king 4428 with oyntment, 8081 and didst increase 7235 z8686 thy perfumes, 7547 and didst send 7971 z8762 thy messengers 6735 farre off, 7350 x5704 x4480 and didst debase 8213 z8686 thy selfe euen vnto x5704 hell. 7585

 57:10 Thou art wearied 3021 z8804 in the greatnesse 7230 of thy way; 1870 [yet] saydst 559 z8804 thou not, x3808 There is no hope: 2976 z8737 thou hast found 4672 z8804 the life 2416 of thine hand; 3027 therefore x5921 x3651 thou wast not x3808 grieued. 2470 z8804

 57:11 And of whom x4310 hast thou bene afraid 1672 z8804 or feared, 3372 z8799 that x3588 thou hast lyed, 3576 z8762 and hast not x3808 remembred 2142 z8804 me, nor x3808 layed 7760 z8804 [it] to x5921 thy heart? 3820 haue not x3808 I x589 held my peace 2814 z8688 euen of old, 5769 x4480 and thou fearest 3372 z8799 me not? x3808

 57:12 I x589 will declare 5046 z8686 thy righteousnes; 6666 and thy workes, 4639 for they shall not x3808 profit 3276 z8686 thee.

 57:13 ¶ When thou criest, 2199 z8800 let thy companies 6899 deliuer 5337 z8686 thee: but the winde 7307 shall cary them all away; 5375 z8799 x853 x3605 Uanitie 1892 shall take 3947 z8799 [them]: but hee that putteth his trust 2620 z8802 in me, shall possesse 5157 z8799 the land, 776 and shall inherit 3423 z8799 my holy 6944 mountaine. 2022

 57:14 And shall say, 559 z8804 Cast yee vp, 5549 z8798 cast yee vp; 5549 z8798 prepare 6437 z8761 the way, 1870 take vp 7311 z8685 the stumbling blocke 4383 out of the way 1870 x4480 of my people. 5971

 57:15 For x3588 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the High 7311 z8802 and loftie One 5375 z8737 that inhabiteth 7931 z8802 eternitie, 5703 whose Name 8034 [is] Holy; 6918 I dwell 7931 z8799 in the high 4791 and holy 6918 [place]: with x854 him also that is of a contrite 1793 and humble 8217 spirit, 7307 to reuiue 2421 z8687 the spirit 7307 of the humble, 8217 and to reuiue 2421 z8687 the heart 3820 of the contrite ones. 1792 z8737

 57:16 For x3588 I will not x3808 contend 7378 z8799 for euer, 5769 neither x3808 will I be alwayes y5331 wroth: 7107 z8799 x5331 for x3588 the spirit 7307 should faile 5848 z8799 before 6440 x4480 me, and the soules 5397 [which] I x589 haue made. 6213 z8804

 57:17 For the iniquitie 5771 of his couetousnesse 1215 was I wroth, 7107 z8804 and smote 5221 z8686 him: I hid 5641 z8687 me, and was wroth, 7107 z8799 and hee went x1980 on y3212 z8799 frowardly 7726 in the way 1870 of his heart. 3820

 57:18 I haue seene 7200 z8804 his wayes, 1870 and will heale 7495 z8799 him: I will leade 5148 z8686 him also, and restore 7999 z8762 comforts 5150 vnto him, and to his mourners. 57

 57:19 I create 1254 z8802 the fruite 5108 of the lippes; 8193 peace, 7965 peace 7965 to him that is farre off, 7350 and to him that is neere, 7138 sayth 559 z8804 the LORD, 3068 and I will heale 7495 z8804 him.

 57:20 But the wicked 7563 [are] like the troubled 1644 z8737 sea, 3220 when x3588 it cannot 3201 z8799 x3808 rest, 8252 z8687 whose waters 4325 cast vp 1644 z8799 myre 7516 and dirt. 2916

 57:21 [There is] no x369 peace, 7965 sayth 559 z8804 my God, 430 to the wicked. 7563
