71 Days of Isaiah Plan
In 71 days, you can experience the full power of Isaiah's prophetic words.
Today, we are reading Isaiah 9:8-10:4.
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 sycamores 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 honorable, 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 a 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. |
