THE LORD GOD SHALL SLAY THEE AND CALL HIS SERVANTS BY ANOTHER NAME

ISAIAH 65:9-16

 

AND I WILL BRING FORTH 
A SEED OUT OF JACOB, 
AND OUT OF JUDAH 
AN INHERITOR OF MY MOUNTAINS:
AND MINE ELECT SHALL INHERIT IT, 
AND MY SERVANTS SHALL 
DWELL THERE. 
AND SHARON SHALL 
BE A FOLD OF FLOCKS, 
AND THE VALLEY OF ACHOR 
A PLACE FOR THE HERDS 
TO LIE DOWN IN,  
FOR MY 
PEOPLE THAT HAVE SOUGHT ME.
BUT YE ARE THEY THAT FORSAKE
THE LORD, THAT FORGET 
MY HOLY MOUNTAIN, 
THAT PREPARE 
A TABLE FOR THAT TROOP, 
AND THAT FURNISH THE DRINK 
OFFERING UNTO THAT NUMBER. 
THEREFORE WILL 
I NUMBER YOU TO THE SWORD
AND YE SHALL ALL BOW DOWN 
TO THE SLAUGHTER: 
BECAUSE WHEN I CALLED, YE DID NOT ANSWER; WHEN I SPAKE, YE DID NOT HEAR; BUT DID EVIL BEFORE MINE EYES, AND DID CHOOSE THAT WHEREIN I DELIGHTED NOT.
THEREFORE THUS SAITH THE LORD GOD, BEHOLD, MY SERVANTS SHALL EAT, 
BUT YE SHALL BE HUNGRY:
BEHOLD, MY SERVANTS SHALL DRINK, BUT YE SHALL BE THIRSTY: BEHOLD, MY SERVANTS SHALL REJOICE, BUT YE SHALL BE ASHAMED:   
BEHOLD, MY SERVANTS SHALL SING 
FOR JOY OF HEART, 
BUT YE SHALL CRY FOR SORROW 
OF HEART, AND SHALL HOWL 
FOR VEXATION OF SPIRIT.  
AND YE SHALL LEAVE YOUR NAME 
FOR A CURSE UNTO MY CHOSEN: FOR 
THE LORD GOD SHALL SLAY 
THEE, AND CALL HIS SERVANTS 
BY ANOTHER NAME
THAT HE WHO BLESSETH 
HIMSELF IN THE EARTH 
SHALL BLESS HIMSELF 
IN THE GOD OF TRUTH; 
AND HE THAT SWEARETH 
IN THE EARTH SHALL 
SWEAR BY THE GOD OF TRUTH;  
BECAUSE THE FORMER TROUBLES 
ARE FORGOTTEN, AND 
BECAUSE THEY ARE HID 
FROM MINE EYES.

 
LOVE
