Then men will say, “There is surely a reward for the righteous! There is surely a God who judges the earth!”

Then all mankind will fear and proclaim the work of God; so they will ponder what He has done.

If I had said, “I will speak this way,” then I would have betrayed Your children.

Then they will not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, whose heart was not loyal, whose spirit was not faithful to God.

Then the Lord awoke as from sleep, like a mighty warrior overcome by wine.

Then we Your people, the sheep of Your pasture, will thank You forever; from generation to generation we will declare Your praise.

Then we will not turn away from You; revive us, and we will call on Your name.

Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.

Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.

Then they believed His promises and sang His praise.

Then fire blazed through their company; flames consumed the wicked.

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress.

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.

They mounted up to the heavens, then sunk to the depths; their courage melted in their anguish.

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He brought them out of their distress.

Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, deliver my soul!”

Then I would not be ashamed when I consider all Your commandments.

Make clear to me the way of Your precepts; then I will meditate on Your wonders.

Then I can answer him who taunts, for I trust in Your word.

If Your law had not been my delight, then I would have perished in my affliction.

…when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive,

…then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,

…then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,

…then the raging waters would have swept us away.

Then our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with shouts of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”

If You, O LORD, kept track of iniquities, then who, O Lord, could stand?

If your sons keep My covenant and the testimony I will teach them, then their sons will also sit on your throne forever and ever.”

Then our sons will be like plants nurtured in their youth, our daughters like corner pillars carved to adorn a palace.

If you had repented at my rebuke, then surely I would have poured out my spirit on you; I would have made my words known to you.

Then I turned to consider wisdom and madness and folly; for what more can the king’s successor do than what has already been accomplished?

So I said to myself, “The fate of the fool will also befall me. What then have I gained by being wise?” And I said to myself that this too is futile.

When good things increase, so do those who consume them; what then is the profit to the owner, except to behold them with his eyes?

What advantage, then, has the wise man over the fool? What gain comes to the poor man who knows how to conduct himself before others?

Then too, I saw the burial of the wicked who used to go in and out of the holy place, and they were praised in the city where they had done so. This too is futile.

…when men fear the heights and dangers of the road, when the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper loses its spring, and the caper berry shrivels—for then man goes to his eternal home and mourners walk the streets.

Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar.

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”

Then I asked: “How long, O Lord?” And He replied: “Until the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, until the houses are left unoccupied and the land is desolate and ravaged,

Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear-jashub to meet Ahaz at the end of the aqueduct that feeds the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field,

‘Let us invade Judah, terrorize it, and divide it among ourselves. Then we can install the son of Tabeal over it as king.’

The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you do not stand firm in your faith, then you will not stand at all.’”

Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, O house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of men? Will you try the patience of my God as well?

Then the jealousy of Ephraim will depart, and the adversaries of Judah will be cut off. Ephraim will no longer envy Judah, nor will Judah harass Ephraim.

The nations will escort Israel and bring it to its homeland. Then the house of Israel will possess the nations as menservants and maidservants in the LORD’s land. They will make captives of their captors and rule over their oppressors.

Then the firstborn of the poor will find pasture, and the needy will lie down in safety, but I will kill your root by famine, and your remnant will be slain.

Then the spirit of the Egyptians will be emptied out from among them, and I will frustrate their plans, so that they will resort to idols and spirits of the dead, to mediums and spiritists.

Then the fishermen will mourn, all who cast a hook into the Nile will lament, and those who spread nets on the waters will pine away.

Then the LORD said, “Just as My servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot for three years as a sign and omen against Egypt and Cush,

And on that day the dwellers of this coastland will say, ‘See what has happened to our source of hope, those to whom we fled for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How then can we escape?’”

Then the lookout shouted: “Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower; night after night I stay at my post.

The watchman replies, “Morning has come, but also the night. If you would inquire, then inquire. Come back yet again.”

And at the end of seventy years, the LORD will restore Tyre. Then she will return to hire as a prostitute and sell herself to all the kingdoms on the face of the earth.

Then the word of the LORD to them will become: “Order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line; a little here, a little there,” so that they will go stumbling backward and will be injured, ensnared, and captured.

But your many foes will be like fine dust, the multitude of the ruthless like blowing chaff. Then suddenly, in an instant,

…as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.

…as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.

“Then Assyria will fall, but not by the sword of man; a sword will devour them, but not one made by mortals. They will flee before the sword, and their young men will be put to forced labor.

Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen.

…until the Spirit is poured out upon us from on high. Then the desert will be an orchard, and the orchard will seem like a forest.

Then justice will inhabit the wilderness, and righteousness will dwell in the fertile field.

Then my people will dwell in a peaceful place, in safe and secure places of rest.

Your ropes are slack; they cannot secure the mast or spread the sail. Then an abundance of spoils will be divided, and even the lame will carry off plunder.

When My sword has drunk its fill in the heavens, then it will come down upon Edom, upon the people I have devoted to destruction.

Then the eyes of the blind will be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped.

Then the lame will leap like a deer and the mute tongue will shout for joy. For waters will gush forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.

Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, went out to him.

Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out loudly in Hebrew: “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!

Then Hilkiah’s son Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they relayed to him the words of the Rabshakeh.

Surely you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the other countries, devoting them to destruction. Will you then be spared?

Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent a message to Hezekiah: “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Because you have prayed to Me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria,

Then the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000 men in the camp of the Assyrians. When the people got up the next morning, there were all the dead bodies!

Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,

Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked, “Where did those men come from, and what did they say to you?” “They came to me from a distant land,” Hezekiah replied, “from Babylon.”

Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD of Hosts:
