Isaiah 48

KING JAMES BIBLE	Peshitta
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.	1 ܫܡܥܘ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܝܬ ܝܥܩܘܒ̈ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܢ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܘܡܢ ܡܝܢܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܐ ܢܦܩܘ ܕܝ̇ܡܝܢ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܒܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܡܕܟܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܒܩܘܫܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܒܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.	2 ܡܛܠ ܕܡܢ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܐܬܩܪܝܘ ܘܥܠ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܐܣܬܡܟܘ ܡܪܝܐ ܚܝܠܬܢܐ ܫܡܗ
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.	3 ܩܕܡܝ̈ܬܐ ܕܡܢ ܪܫܝܬܐ ܚܘ̇ܝܬ ܘܡܢ ܦܘܡܝ ܢܦܩ ܘܐܫܡܥ̇ܬ ܐ̈ܢܝܢ ܘܡܢ ܫܠܝܐ ܥܒ̇ܕ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܬ̈ܝܢ
4 Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;	4 ܝ̇ܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܕܩܫܐ ܐܢܬ ܘܩܕܠܟ ܓܝܕܐ ܗܘ ܕܦܪܙܠܐ ܘܒܝܬ ܥܝܢ̇ܝܟ ܢܚܫܐ
5 I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.	5 ܚܘ̇ܝܬܟ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܘܥܕܠܐ ܬܐܬܐ ܐܫܡܥ̇ܬܟ ܕܠܐ ܬܐܡܪ ܦܬܟܪ̈ܝ ܥܒܕܘ ܘܓ̈ܠܝܦܝ ܘܢܣܝ̈ܟܝ ܦܪܩܘܢܝ
6 Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.	6 ܫܡ̇ܥܬ ܘܚܙ̇ܝܬ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܚܘܘܢ ܐܫܡܥ̇ܬܟ ܚܕܬ̈ܬܐ ܕܡܢ ܗܫܐ ܢܛܝܪ̈ܢ ܘܠܐ ܐܝܕܥܬ
7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.	7 ܘܡܟܝܠ ܡܬܒܪ̈ܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܝܘܡܐ ܠܐ ܫܡܥܬ ܐ̈ܢܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܐܡܪ ܕܝ̇ܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܝܢ
8 Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.	8 ܠܐ ܫܡܥܬ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܝ̇ܕܥ ܐܢܬ ܠܗܝܢ ܘܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܠܐ ܐܬܦܬܚ ܐܕܢܝ̈ܟ ܝ̇ܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܕܡܕܓܠܘ ܡܕܓܠ ܐܢܬ ܘܥܘ̇ܠܐ ܡܢ ܟܪܣܐ ܐܬܩܪܝܬ
9 For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.	9 ܡܛܠ ܫܡܝ ܐܘܪܟ ܪܘܓܙܝ ܘܬܫܒܘܚܬܝ ܐܛܪ ܠܟ ܘܠܐ ܐܘܒܕܟ
10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.	10 ܗܐ ܨܪܦܬ̇ܟ ܘܠܐ ܒܟܣܦܐ ܘܒܚ̇ܪܬܟ ܒܟܘܪܐ ܕܡܣܟܢܘܬܐ
11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.	11 ܡܛܠܬܝ ܐܥܒܕ ܕܠܐ ܐܬܛܘܫ ܘܐܝܩܪܝ ܠܐܚܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܐܬܠ
12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.	12 ܫܡܥܝܢܝ ܝܥܩܘܒ̈ ܘܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܕܩ̇ܪܝܬ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ
13 Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.	13 ܘܐܝܕܝ ܐܬܩܢܬ ܫܬܐ̈ܣܝܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܝܡܝܢܝ ܛܦܚܬ ܫܡܝܐ ܩ̇ܪܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܩܝ̇ܡܝܢ ܐܟܚܕܐ
14 All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.	14 ܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܘܫܡܥܘ ܡܢܘ ܐܝܬ ܒܟܘܢ ܕܡܚܘܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܪܝܐ ܪܚܡ ܕܢܥܒܕ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܒܒܒܠ ܘܒܙܪܥܐ ܕܟܠܕ̈ܝܐ
15 I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.	15 ܐܢܐ ܡܠܠ̇ܬ ܘܐܦ ܩ̇ܪܝܬ ܘܐܝ̇ܬܝܬܗ̇ ܘܐܨܠܚ̇ܬ ܐܘܪܚܗ̇
16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.	16 ܩܪܘܒܘ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܫܡܥܘ ܗܕܐ ܕܡܢ ܪܫܝܬܐ ܒܛܘܫܝܐ ܠܐ ܡܠܠ̇ܬ ܘܡܢ ܙܒܢܐ ܕܗܘܬ ܬܡܢ ܐܢܐ ܘܗܫܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܫܕܪܢܝ ܘܪܘܚܗ
17 Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.	17 ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡ̇ܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܦܪܘܩܟ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܐܢܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܡܠܦ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܕܠܐ ܬܥܠܐ ܘܡܚܘܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܐܘܪܚܐ ܕܬܐܙܠ ܒܗ̇
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:	18 ܠܘܝ ܕܝܢ ܨܐ̇ܬ ܐܢܬ ܦܘܩ̈ܕܢܝ ܘܗܘ̇ܐ ܫܠܡܟ ܐܝܟ ܢܗܪܐ ܘܙܕܝܩܘܬܟ ܐܝܟ ܓ̈ܠܠܐ ܕܝܡܐ
19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.	19 ܘܗ̇ܘܐ ܙܪܥܟ ܐܝܟ ܚܠܐ ܘܝܠܕܐ ܕܡ̈ܥܝܟ ܐܝܟ ܚܨ̈ܨܘܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܢܣܘܦ ܘܠܐ ܢܐܒܕ ܫܡܗ ܡܢ ܩܕܡܝ
20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.	20 ܦܘܩܘ ܡܢ ܒܒܠ ܥܪܘܩܘ ܡܢ ܟ̈ܠܕܝܐ ܒܩܠܐ ܕܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܚܘܘ ܗܕܐ ܘܐܫܡܥܘܗ̇ ܘܐܦܩܘܗ̇ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܣܘ̈ܦܝܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܦܪܩ ܡܪܝܐ ܠܝܥܩܘܒ ܥܒܕܗ
21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.	21 ܒܚܪ̈ܒܬܐ ܗܠܟ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܡ̈ܝܐ ܡܢ ܛܪܢܐ ܐܪܕܝ ܠܗܘܢ ܒܙܥ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܪܕܘ ܡ̈ܝܐ
22 There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.	22 ܠܝܬ ܫܠܡܐ ܠܪ̈ܫܝܥܐ ܐܡ̇ܪ ܡܪܝܐ
