6 Those coming in shall take root; Jacob shall blossom and Israel shall bud,
and they will fill the face of the world with fruit. 7 As the striking of His striker, did He strike him? Or as the slaying of His
slain, is he slain? 8 You will contend with her by driving her away, by sending her away. He shall
take away by His harsh wind, in the day of the east wind. 9 By this, then, the iniquity of Jacob will be covered, and this is all the
fruit, to take away his sin; when he makes all the stones of the altar as
chalkstones that are beaten in pieces; Asherahs and sun pillars shall not rise. 10 For the fortified city shall be lonely, a forsaken pasture, and left like a
wilderness. The calf shall feed there, and he shall lie there, and eat up its
branches. 11 When its boughs dry up, they are broken off. Women shall come and kindle
them, for it is a people with no understanding. On account of this His Maker
shall not pity him, and His Former will not show him grace. 12 And it shall be in that day, YAHUVEH shall thresh from the channel of the
River to the torrent of Egypt; and you shall be gathered one by one, sons of
Israel. 13 And it shall be in that day, the great ram’s horn shall be blown; and those
perishing in the land of Assyria and the outcasts in the land of Egypt shall
come and shall worship YAHUVEH in the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
*~ Isaiah Chapter 28 ~*
1 Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty
is a fading flower on the head of the fat valley of those who are overcome with
wine! 2 Behold, might and strength are to YAHUVEH; like a hailstorm, a destroying
storm; like a storm of mighty waters overflowing; He sets down to the earth with
His hand. 3 The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trampled down by His
feet. 4 And the glorious beauty which is on the head of the fat valley shall be a
fading flower, like the first ripe fig before summer which the seeing one sees;
while it is yet in his hand, he swallows it. 5 In that day YAHUVEH of Hosts shall become a crown of splendor and a crown of
beauty to the rest of His people, 6 and a spirit of justice to him who sits on the judgment seat; and for might to
those turning back the battle toward the gate. 7 But they also have gone astray by wine, and have erred through liquor; priest
and prophet have erred through fermented drink; they have been swallowed by
wine; they strayed from liquor; they err in vision; they stumble in judgment; 8 for all tables are full of vomit and filth, without a clean place. 9 To whom shall He teach knowledge? And to whom shall He explain the message?
Those weaned from milk, those moving from breasts? 10 For precept must be on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on
line; here a little, there a little. 11 For with stammering lip and another language, He will speak to this people; 12 to whom He said, This is the rest; cause the weary to rest. Also, This is the
repose. But they willed not to hear. 13 Yet the Word of YAHUVEH was to them, precept on precept, precept on precept;
line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they might go,
and stumble, and be broken, and snared, and taken. *~ Isaiah Chapter 29 ~* 22 So YAHUVEH says this: He who redeemed (Aleph/Tav) Abraham, as to the house of
Jacob: Jacob shall not be ashamed now, nor shall his face become pale now. 23 But when he sees his children in his midst, the work of MY hands, they shall
sanctify MY name. They shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the
ELOHIM of Israel. Matthew 2:1-12
1 And when YAHUSHUA had been born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the
king, behold, magi arrived from the east to Jerusalem, 2 saying, where is He born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and
have come to worship Him. 3 But Herod the king having heard this, he was troubled and all Jerusalem with
him. 4 And having gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked
of them where the Messiah was to be born. 5 And they said to him, In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it has been written by the
prophet, 6 “And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judea, in no way are you least among the
governors of Judah, for out of you shall come out One ruling, who shall shepherd
My people Israel.” 7 Then secretly calling the magi, Herod asked of them exactly the time of the
star appearing. 8 And sending them to Bethlehem, he said, having gone, exactly inquire about the
child. And when you find Him, bring me word again so that coming I may also
worship Him. 9 And having heard the king, they departed. And, behold! The star which they saw
in the east went before them until it had come and stood over where the child
was. 10 And seeing the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with a great joy. 11 And having come into the house, they saw the child with His mother Mariam.
And falling down, they worshiped Him. And opening their treasures, they
presented gifts to Him, gold and frankincense and myrrh. 12 And having been warned by a dream not to return to Herod, they went back into
their own country by another way.
