Isaiah
21-24
Isa
21:1 The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the
South sweep through, it comes from the wilderness, from an awesome
land.
Isa
21:2 A grievous vision is declared to me. The treacherous man deals
treacherously, and the destroyer destroys. Go up, Elam; attack! I
have stopped all of Media's sighing.
Isa
21:3 Therefore my thighs are filled with anguish. Pains have taken
hold on me, like the pains of a woman in labor. I am in so much pain
that I can't hear. I so am dismayed that I can't see.
Isa
21:4 My heart flutters. Horror has frightened me. The twilight that
I desired has been turned into trembling for me.
Isa
21:5 They prepare the table. They set the watch. They eat. They
drink. Rise up, you princes, oil the shield!
Isa
21:6 For the Lord said to me, "Go, set a watchman. Let him
declare what he sees.
Isa
21:7 When he sees a troop, horsemen in pairs, a troop of donkeys, a
troop of camels, he shall listen diligently with great
attentiveness."
Isa
21:8 He cried like a lion: "Lord, I stand continually on the
watchtower in the daytime, and every night I stay at my post.
Isa
21:9 Behold, here comes a troop of men, horsemen in pairs." He
answered, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the engraved
images of her gods are broken to the ground.
Isa
21:10 You are my threshing, and the grain of my floor!" That
which I have heard from Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, I have
declared to you.
Isa
21:11 The burden of Dumah. One calls to me out of Seir, "Watchman,
what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?"
Isa
21:12 The watchman said, "The morning comes, and also the
night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again."
Isa
21:13 The burden on Arabia. In the forest in Arabia you will lodge,
you caravans of Dedanites.
Isa
21:14 They brought water to him who was thirsty. The inhabitants of
the land of Tema met the fugitives with their bread.
Isa
21:15 For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, from
the bent bow, and from the heat of battle.
Isa
21:16 For the Lord said to me, "Within a year, as a worker
bound by contract would count it, all the glory of Kedar will fail,
Isa
21:17 and the residue of the number of the archers, the mighty men
of the children of Kedar, will be few; for Yahweh, the God of Israel,
has spoken it."
Isa
22:1 The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you
have all gone up to the housetops?
Isa
22:2 You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous
town; your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead
in battle.
Isa
22:3 All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the
archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far
away.
Isa
22:4 Therefore I said, "Look away from me. I will weep
bitterly. Don't labor to comfort me for the destruction of the
daughter of my people.
Isa
22:5 For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of
perplexity, from the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, in the valley of vision;
a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains."
Isa
22:6 Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and
Kir uncovered the shield.
Isa
22:7 It happened that your choicest valleys were full of chariots,
and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
Isa
22:8 He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day
to the armor in the house of the forest.
Isa
22:9 You saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many;
and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
Isa
22:10 You numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the
houses to fortify the wall.
Isa
22:11 You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water
of the old pool. But you didn't look to him who had done this,
neither did you have respect for him who purposed it long ago.
Isa
22:12 In that day, the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, called to weeping,
and to mourning, and to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth:
Isa
22:13 and behold, joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing
sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine: "Let us eat and drink,
for tomorrow we will die."
Isa
22:14 Yahweh of Armies revealed himself in my ears, "Surely
this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die," says the
Lord, Yahweh of Armies.
Isa
22:15 Thus says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, "Go, get yourself
to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
Isa
22:16 'What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug
out a tomb here?' Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a
habitation for himself in the rock!"
Isa
22:17 Behold, Yahweh will overcome you and hurl you away violently.
Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
Isa
22:18 He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like
a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the
chariots of your glory will be, you shame of your lord's house.
Isa
22:19 I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down
from your station.
Isa
22:20 It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim
the son of Hilkiah,
Isa
22:21 and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with
your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will
be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of
Judah.
Isa
22:22 I will lay the key of the house of David on his shoulder. He
will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
Isa
22:23 I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for
a throne of glory to his father's house.
Isa
22:24 They will hang on him all the glory of his father's house, the
offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to
all the pitchers.
Isa
22:25 "In that day," says Yahweh of Armies, "the nail
that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down,
and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for Yahweh has
spoken it."
Isa
23:1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, you ships of Tarshish! For it is laid
waste, so that there is no house, no entering in. From the land of
Kittim it is revealed to them.
Isa
23:2 Be still, you inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants
of Sidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
Isa
23:3 On great waters, the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the
Nile, was her revenue. She was the market of nations.
Isa
23:4 Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of
the sea, saying, "I have not travailed, nor brought forth,
neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins."
Isa
23:5 When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the
report of Tyre.
Isa
23:6 Pass over to Tarshish! Wail, you inhabitants of the coast!
Isa
23:7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days,
whose feet carried her far away to travel?
Isa
23:8 Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose
merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honorable of the
earth?
Isa
23:9 Yahweh of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all
glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
Isa
23:10 Pass through your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish.
There is no restraint any more.
Isa
23:11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the
kingdoms. Yahweh has ordered the destruction of Canaan's strongholds.
Isa
23:12 He said, "You shall rejoice no more, you oppressed virgin
daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim. Even there you will
have no rest."
Isa
23:13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people was not. The
Assyrians founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set
up their towers. They overthrew its palaces. They made it a ruin.
Isa
23:14 Howl, you ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid
waste!
Isa
23:15 It will come to pass in that day that Tyre will be forgotten
seventy years, according to the days of one king. After the end of
seventy years it will be to Tyre like in the song of the prostitute.
Isa
23:16 Take a harp; go about the city, you prostitute that has been
forgotten. Make sweet melody. Sing many songs, that you may be
remembered.
Isa
23:17 It will happen after the end of seventy years that Yahweh will
visit Tyre, and she shall return to her wages, and will play the
prostitute with all the kingdoms of the world on the surface of the
earth.
Isa
23:18 Her merchandise and her wages will be holiness to Yahweh. It
will not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise will be for
those who dwell before Yahweh, to eat sufficiently, and for durable
clothing.
Isa
24:1 Behold, Yahweh makes the earth empty, makes it waste, turns it
upside down, and scatters its inhabitants.
Isa
24:2 It will be as with the people, so with the priest; as with the
servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress;
as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the creditor, so with
the debtor; as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of
interest.
Isa
24:3 The earth will be utterly emptied and utterly laid waste; for
Yahweh has spoken this word.
Isa
24:4 The earth mourns and fades away. The world languishes and fades
away. The lofty people of the earth languish.
Isa
24:5 The earth also is polluted under its inhabitants, because they
have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, and broken the
everlasting covenant.
Isa
24:6 Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and those who dwell
therein are found guilty. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are
burned, and few men left.
Isa
24:7 The new wine mourns. The vine languishes. All the merry-hearted
sigh.
Isa
24:8 The mirth of tambourines ceases. The sound of those who rejoice
ends. The joy of the harp ceases.
Isa
24:9 They will not drink wine with a song. Strong drink will be
bitter to those who drink it.
Isa
24:10 The confused city is broken down. Every house is shut up, that
no man may come in.
Isa
24:11 There is a crying in the streets because of the wine. All joy
is darkened. The mirth of the land is gone.
Isa
24:12 The city is left in desolation, and the gate is struck with
destruction.
Isa
24:13 For it will be so in the midst of the earth among the peoples,
as the shaking of an olive tree, as the gleanings when the vintage is
done.
Isa
24:14 These shall lift up their voice. They will shout for the
majesty of Yahweh. They cry aloud from the sea.
Isa
24:15 Therefore glorify Yahweh in the east, even the name of Yahweh,
the God of Israel, in the islands of the sea!
Isa
24:16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs.
Glory to the righteous! But I said, "I pine away! I pine away!
woe is me!" The treacherous have dealt treacherously. Yes, the
treacherous have dealt very treacherously.
Isa
24:17 Fear, the pit, and the snare, are on you who inhabitant the
earth.
Isa
24:18 It will happen that he who flees from the noise of the fear
will fall into the pit; and he who comes up out of the midst of the
pit will be taken in the snare; for the windows on high are opened,
and the foundations of the earth tremble.
Isa
24:19 The earth is utterly broken. The earth is torn apart. The
earth is shaken violently.
Isa
24:20 The earth will stagger like a drunken man, and will sway back
and forth like a hammock. Its disobedience will be heavy on it, and
it will fall and not rise again.
Isa
24:21 It shall happen in that day that Yahweh will punish the army
of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth on the earth.
Isa
24:22 They shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in
the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison; and after many days
shall they be visited.
Isa
24:23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for
Yahweh of Armies will reign on Mount Zion, and in Jerusalem; and
before his elders will be glory.

The
Composite
Bible
is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)to
make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.

1 Timothy 1
1Ti 1:1 Paul, an
apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our
Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope;
1Ti 1:2 to Timothy, my
true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and
Christ Jesus our Lord.
1Ti 1:3 As I urged you
when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might
command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
1Ti 1:4 neither to pay
attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes,
rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith--
1Ti 1:5 but the goal of
this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and
unfeigned faith;
1Ti 1:6 from which
things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain
talking;
1Ti 1:7 desiring to be
teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say,
nor about what they strongly affirm.
1Ti 1:8 But we know
that the law is good, if a man uses it lawfully,
1Ti 1:9 as knowing
this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless
and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and
profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for
manslayers,
1Ti 1:10 for the
sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for
perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;
1Ti 1:11 according to
the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to
my trust.
1Ti 1:12 And I thank
him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me
faithful, appointing me to service;
1Ti 1:13 although I was
before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained
mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
1Ti 1:14 The grace of
our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ
Jesus.
1Ti 1:15 The saying is
faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into
the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
1Ti 1:16 However, for
this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might
display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to
believe in him for eternal life.
1Ti 1:17 Now to the
King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor
and glory forever and ever. Amen.
1Ti 1:18 This
instruction I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the
prophecies which led the way to you, that by them you may wage the
good warfare;
1Ti 1:19 holding faith
and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck
concerning the faith;
1Ti 1:20 of whom is
Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Satan, that they might
be taught not to blaspheme.

a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black

make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the

at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
