Bible Reading for July 30

Isaiah Chapter 9

1 Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, 
when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land 
of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of 
the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.

2 The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that 
dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.

3 Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy 
before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when 
they divide the spoil.

4 For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his 
shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.

5 For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments 
rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.

6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the 
government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called 
Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The 
Prince of Peace.

7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, 
upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to 
establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for 
ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

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 
sycomores 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 honourable, 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 an 
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.

Isaiah Chapter 10

1 Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write 
grievousness which they have prescribed;

2 To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from 
the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may 
rob the fatherless!

3 And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation 
which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will 
ye leave your glory?

4 Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall 
fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his 
hand is stretched out still.

5 O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine 
indignation.

6 I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people 
of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the 
prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

7 Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is 
in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few.

8 For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings?

9 Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as 
Damascus?

10 As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven 
images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria;

11 Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to 
Jerusalem and her idols?

12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed 
his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit 
of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.

13 For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my 
wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, 
and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants 
like a valiant man:

14 And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one 
gathereth eggs that are left, have I gathered all the earth; and there 
was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped.

15 Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? or 
shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod 
should shake itself against them that lift it up, or as if the staff 
should lift up itself, as if it were no wood.

16 Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones 
leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning 
of a fire.

17 And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a 
flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day;

18 And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, 
both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth.

19 And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child 
may write them.

20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, 
and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay 
upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of 
Israel, in truth.

21 The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.

22 For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant 
of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with 
righteousness.

23 For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, 
in the midst of all the land.

24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest 
in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, 
and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.

25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and 
mine anger in their destruction.

26 And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to 
the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the 
sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt.

27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken 
away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke 
shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

28 He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid 
up his carriages:

29 They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at 
Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled.

30 Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto 
Laish, O poor Anathoth.

31 Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.

32 As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand 
against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

33 Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: 
and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall 
be humbled.

34 And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and 
Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.

Isaiah Chapter 11

1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a 
Branch shall grow out of his roots:

2 And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom 
and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of 
knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;

3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and 
he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after 
the hearing of his ears:

4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with 
equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the 
rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness 
the girdle of his reins.

6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie 
down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling 
together; and a little child shall lead them.

7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down 
together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the 
weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.

9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth 
shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for 
an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest 
shall be glorious.

11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his 
hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which 
shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from 
Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the 
islands of the sea.

12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the 
outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the 
four corners of the earth.

13 The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah 
shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex 
Ephraim.

14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the 
west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their 
hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.

15 And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; 
and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and 
shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.

16 And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which 
shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he 
came up out of the land of Egypt.

Isaiah Chapter 12

1 And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though 
thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou 
comfortedst me.

2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the 
LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.

3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

4 And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, 
declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.

5 Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known 
in all the earth.

6 Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One 
of Israel in the midst of thee.
