Yesaya 3:14

3:14 The Lord comes to pronounce judgment

on the leaders of his people and their officials.

He says, ¹  “It is you ²  who have ruined ³  the vineyard! ⁴ 

You have stashed in your houses what you have stolen from the poor. ⁵ 

Yesaya 7:20

7:20 At that time ⁶  the sovereign master will use a razor hired from the banks of the Euphrates River, ⁷  the king of Assyria, to shave the head and the pubic hair; ⁸  it will also shave off the beard.

Yesaya 19:21

19:21 The Lord will reveal himself to the Egyptians, and they ⁹  will acknowledge the Lord’s authority ¹⁰  at that time. ¹¹  They will present sacrifices and offerings; they will make vows to the Lord and fulfill them.

Yesaya 32:6

32:6 For a fool speaks disgraceful things; ¹² 

his mind plans out sinful deeds. ¹³ 

He commits godless deeds ¹⁴ 

and says misleading things about the Lord;

he gives the hungry nothing to satisfy their appetite ¹⁵ 

and gives the thirsty nothing to drink. ¹⁶ 

Yesaya 33:14

33:14 Sinners are afraid in Zion;

panic ¹⁷  grips the godless. ¹⁸ 

They say, ¹⁹  ‘Who among us can coexist with destructive fire?

Who among us can coexist with unquenchable ²⁰  fire?’

Yesaya 43:2

43:2 When you pass through the waters, I am with you;

when you pass ²¹  through the streams, they will not overwhelm you.

When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned;

the flames will not harm ²²  you.

Yesaya 43:23

43:23 You did not bring me lambs for your burnt offerings;

you did not honor me with your sacrifices.

I did not burden you with offerings;

I did not make you weary by demanding ²³  incense.

Yesaya 66:24

66:24 “They will go out and observe the corpses of those who rebelled against me, for the maggots that eat them will not die, ²⁴  and the fire that consumes them will not die out. ²⁵  All people will find the sight abhorrent.” ²⁶
