Isaiah 32:1-11 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

1. Lo, for righteousness doth a king reign, As to princes, for judgment they rule.

2. And each hath been as a hiding-place [from] wind, And as a secret hiding-place [from] inundation, As rivulets of waters in a dry place, As a shadow of a heavy rock in a weary land.

3. And not dazzled are the eyes of beholders, And the ears of hearers do attend.

4. And the heart of those hastened Understandeth to know, And the tongue of stammerers hasteth to speak clearly.

5. A fool is no more called `noble,' And to a miser it is not said, `rich;'

6. For a fool speaketh folly, And his heart doth iniquity, to do profanity, And to speak concerning Jehovah error, To empty the soul of the hungry, Yea, drink of the thirsty he causeth to lack.

7. And the miser--his instruments [are] evil, He hath counselled wicked devices, To corrupt the poor with lying sayings, Even when the needy speaketh justly.

8. And the noble counselled noble things, And he for noble things riseth up.

9. Women, easy ones, rise, hear my voice, Daughters, confident ones, give ear [to] my saying,

10. Days and a year ye are troubled, O confident ones, For consumed hath been harvest, The gathering cometh not.

11. Tremble ye women, ye easy ones, Be troubled, ye confident ones, Strip and make bare, with a girdle on the loins,
