     Note: in YLT ..the seraph ? flee ?? to him ??? only angels that flee ...are those who were cast out with satan ...

     8 for 8 ...change unrighteousness ...(unrightness) ...to more wicked ...5 of 8 ...iniquity or worse ...2 of 8 guilt and sin ...or still worse ...your wickedness ...

     Now look to the matters plainly: can a soul be unrighteous ..not right with God ...yet not be wicked ? not be guilty ? not knowningly sinning ? Yet we see that the bible scholiars would have you believe this ...that any unrighteousness is more wicked ...as they do keep their flocks in continual spiritual need (deprived)...so that they need the counsel ...counsell of religious men.

     i know for a fact that a soul is made more "perfect" before God by the works of Jesus "in them" ...helping them to be more "righteous" before God ...in all ways ...and as a blessing ...not accusing as these do ...or would have you believe their changes to the WORD of God ..

NIV   6 Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar.7 With it he touched my mouth and said, "See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for."

KJV   6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.

NASB   6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with tongs.7 He touched my mouth with it and said, ""Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away and your sin is forgiven.''

     Note: this "of himself" ...Jesus; the very Son of God is telling them ...that He will come conceived of a virgin ...Or as these would have you believe ...just another sign form God ...from God the father? ...Or from Lord God the son ?? ..mmm well they minished it here ...and added ...so as you might be confused ...that you might believe their "trinitarian" doctrine ...saying the son is the father ...WARNING : whosoever hath not the father AND the son is the antichrist ...Look see 1st John 2:22-23 compare and see the additions in the "bibles of religion" that would steal your knowning of the Father AND the son ...

     Plainly these "bile scholiars" would have you believe ...that Jesus is also the Father ...as is plain of the "subtle" teachings of the wickedness of the "trinity" ...Again Look see 1st John 2:22-23

     Yup they change butter into "curds" ...very subtle ...the original is very clear ...to know what is evil ...and choose the good ...comes to me ..to show a TRUTH ...that "true evil" is evil masked in "good" ...plainly if we see someone being mean to another ...we say look see what evil an evil thing this is ...yet if we see a mother sending here little child off to the heathen schools of men ...we might NOT see the evil in it ...fact is some say it is "good" ...nevertheless see what God says about these heathen schools ...schools of the heathen

     Needs be that we know what evil is ...and not as the worldly teach ...what is evil ...but what God teaches us ...Nevertheless Mark and know... pray for understanding ...the knowing of good and bad for us (his children) comes from God ...and Jesus his son ...NOT from the teaching of men ...more plainly: Not according to men ...yet according to God ...not even according to our own reasoning (as Adam and Heva did ) ...save Mark why they were cast out of the Garden: 1st Moses 3:21 (Genesis) ...and Mark at the crossing over the river Jordan ...none crossed over save only those that knew NOT the difference between good and bad ...(of their own thinking) And the Lord God said: Lo, Adam is become as it were one of us, in knowledge of good and evil.

     The land ..."that thou art so afraid for" ...is NOT the land that you dread or the 2 kings that you dread ...as written in the "bibles of men" ...even further the land will lose their kings ...look see how the bibles of men ...say the land is forsaken "by their kings" ...who makes a land desolate "of kings" ...?

     well its plain that 2 added "Jehovah" here ...

     Look see how these "bible scholiars" have denied that Lord "controls time" ...Plainly He will "send a time" ...

     here we go with "that day" the day ...and so on ...as the scholiars ...do add this "day" or "the day" ...when the Lord does a thing ... does not this confuse folks ...as to "the day of the Lord " ??

     discern 3 of 8 ....In all the Original Word of God ...hissing ...is never assigned to God the father OR to the Lord Jesus ...it is however assigned to the serpent and to the high unGodly ...suffering wrath ..."these hiss" ...mmm

     where is this in all the bibles of men ???...*that he speed him to rob, and haste him to spoil.

     3 of 8 use "reliable" witness...Yet the True Word uses "faithfull" witness ...Now i ask you are they the same in meaning ? ...faithful is full of faith ...is a reliable witness ..a faithfull witness ...no can not a heathen be a "reliable" witness ..having no faith at all ?? and see how the bible scholiars have robbed Uriah the priest, and Zachariah...of their due ..being recorded as "faithfull witnesses" ...

     again did the bibles of men take out " a speedy robber: an hasty spoiler" are these trying to take away from God ...the fact that He: God can do such a thing ...raise up one such as this ...that is given of God to rob and spoil ???

     Bind ??? oh ya the religious scholiars are ever "binding" things and matters in their religious bibles ...even as they bind peoples to their religions ...

     5 of 8 ...have their readers ...waiting "for" the Lord ...for they ever make God and Christ afar off ...yet of the Original look see we wait upon the Lord for him to minister to us ...rather than going the way of our own thinking ...each day in each matter that is before the Lord ...he helps us ...that we don't do what we "think" is right ...Yet do exactly what He tells us ...

     look see how these many have replaced all the title .."Lord" with the name "Jehovah" ...these be those that by measure think in themselves that there be a magic name ...to conjure Jesus with ...and to bend others necks to follow their religious ways ...nevertheless the name Jehovah is in the Word of God and that in perfect places as given us ...

     8 of 8 replace "tokens" with "signs" ...mmm is it any wonder that these do such a thing ...as these do look for "signs" they have added them here and many other places in their bibles of men ...nevertheless be warned again ...about those that look for "signs" ...REV 13:14 "And deceived them that dwelt on the earth by the means of those signs which he had power to do in the sight of the beast, saying to them that dwelt on the earth: that they should make an image unto the beast, which had the wound of a sword, and did live."

     Yeeesh ! and they left this out "for the Lord of Hosts sake" ...and why? ...why would any leave this out? ...save they do not see the scripture ..."for the Lord of Hosts sake" ???but for their own sake they cut and chop and add to the scripture ..."for their own sake" ...2nd Corinth 2:17 ...For we are not as many are which chop and change with the word of God: but even out of pureness, and by the power of God, and in the sight of God, so speak we in Christ.

     8 for 8 taken out ...Is it harder to conquer...and why chop and change the names of the conquered ...wasn't it politically correct at the time ? ...or might be that the truth of God offends their corrupt teaching of history...where they glory in war and the pride of nations ...

     why reverse the body and soul ? ...does not the body burn first? the flesh being consumed ...that the soul might live ? ...OR that the soul might die ...why the have these reversed this matter ...nevertheless in the Original the "order of God is given plainly of all matters ...and never reversed ...so that in all things you might receive His order ...and not be confused by the works of men here ..."reversing things" ?

     trees are ...strong men ...as shown clearly in the Original ...now measure that only a few of the kings "strong men" might be left ...so few that a child ..(who can't count very high) would be able to number them ...

NIV   17 The Light of Israel will become a fire, their Holy One a flame; in a single day it will burn and consume his thorns and his briers.8 The splendor of his forests and fertile fields it will completely destroy, as when a sick man wastes away.19 And the remaining trees of his forests will be so few that a child could write them down.

KJV   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 standard-bearer fainteth.19 And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.

     8 for 8 ...not "of his own eyes" ...of course ...but thats NOT what the matter is here ...the matter here is plain ...there is no quick judgement ...yet perfect right judgement ...reprove ...decide for them ??

     why 8 for 8 change this : with holiness shall he *reform the simple of the world...they took away holiness ?? and instead of "reform" (helping) ...they make it

     and look see they have taken away the simple ..(i guess they have already judged the simple to be meek humble and poor) ...yet that is NOT the matter here ...the matter is for the "simple" ...folk ...simple of heart ...plain thoughtfullness ...

     why have the "bible scholiars" left out this "personal message" of one soul to another ...that "No man shall do evil to another, no man shall destroy another, in all the hill of my Sanctuary."

     Again these scholiars have taken out a key word : cockatrice ...for they do this often ...(it might be unknowinly; for they love not the TRUTH ) Yet look see: other places in the Word of God how that this cockatrice is linked to knowledge of /and the works of satan ...even as it is here ...so it is that the babes in God and his son Jesus will not fear ...any thing ...

     And why have they changed the "the hill of my Sanctuary" to holy mountain ...again they bring us to look for a "place" rather than a spiritual place ...the "sanctuary of our soul" who is Jesus ...and his blessings ...his rising perfectness ..and his mending of our hearts one unto another ...that we harm not each other ...neither be rude of fleshly nature ...

     4 of 8 replace thankfullness with praise ...mmm

     and makes the Lord an angry Lord rather than "displeased" ...the question comes ...does changing the word of God make him angry ??

     and took away his wrath and made him only angry ? ...wrath is an action word ...whereas angry is a measure of countenance

     and has turned His "mercy" into comfort ...yeesh ! comfort comes "after" we are received of his mercy ...and grace ...AGAIN ...order of God ...

     Again ...they turn our "health" heart mind body and soul ...into "salvation" ...do they let your health slip ...to worldly physicians ...while they buzz word you to cerimoanial salvation ...?

     4 of 8 added "Jehovah" here ...why do that ..."Jehovah" is in the Original exactly where it was recorded ...have they brought the "name game" of the worldly into the truth of God ??

     songs replace praise ...and again ...they use "salvation ...and rip out "refuge" ...another example in the same line ...to show how they just throw in "salvation" wheresoever it seems worthy for them to do it ! ...doesn't this minish the eye being able to see "salvation" clearly ?

NIV   1 In that day you will say: "I will praise you, O LORD. Although you were angry with me, your anger has turned away and you have comforted me.2 Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation."

     Man ! I really hate this ! took our "Savioure" out ! and replaced it with their religious buzz word ...

     3 of 8 replace thankfull hearts ...with praise ... sorry one before the other ...FROM a worthy heart comes acceptable praise ...

     why change this ??? ..."and declare his counsels among the people" or does it suit the ever expanding ever consuming religions better to say in their bibles "among the nations" ...Nevertheless too also to His counsel ...teachings comforting ...nurturing ...Not his what ! achievements ! things ! yeesh !

     and look how they snatch away "as it is known in all the world" BY GOD'S WILL ...even as the holy ghost went out ahead of Jesus ...that people knew of him before he came to their town ...so it is God our father that has done this ...Not as the religious say ...if they don't send out "missionaries" neither God or Jesus would be known anywhere ...Yeeesh what have they done ? priding themselves in their own doing ?

     why replace "our prince" with "Holy One of Israel" ...who are we talking about here ...the very Son of God ...plainly exactly ...and as it is shown plainly ...he comes as a "prince" even as it is recorded in the New testament" AGAIN ...ORDER ...God's the fathers ORDER for his son ...and any that might receive it!

     all 8 for 8 accuse the Lord of being "cruel" ...and leave out "indignation" ...

     to make the land "waste"...yet 7 of 8 say desolate ...look see the unworthy works of man will be wasted ...(so the earth might have rest ...as it is recorded)

     Now Behold ...as the all the "bibles of men" say: destroy or exterminate its sinners ...(peoples) nevetheless the "sin" will be rooted out ...and those with a heart for sin also ...the "bibles of man" would have you look at a cruel Lord who focusses on the peoples sin ...know yet that all sin ...every bit of it will be rooted out ...Not just the people whose hearts are "past repentance"

     Note all the "bibles of men" bring you to look to the constellations" ...their constellations!...are they grooming for asstrology ? mm ...look see: they give you more of their asstrology in ...Job 38:30-33

     Plain lie ...the sun shall not be darkened ...(as this happens often in ecclipes and such) Yet it will be quenched ...what happens when you quench a light ? the light of it goes out ...does not give its light ...

     again He will punish the wickedness ..."of" the world... NOT punish the world ...AND and the sins of the ungodly ...Not just the wicked ...you see here how that the religious have taken out the unGodly ? ...mmm yet what is more unGodly than to ...add or take out or change the very Word of God ? what is more unGodly tahn to put asstrology into the Word of God ...or of other matters that God hates do these who pretend to be Godly do? what have they done ? God knows every thought every fiber of their hearts ...

     plainly HE will so shake the heaven, that the earth shall remove out of her place. here the heaven preached to us by the religious will be shaken and so much so that the earth shall be moved in its place ...nothing unworthy of God will remain in its place (the "foundations of mens pridefull civilizations) ...nevertheless discern also: that the very earth might be moved ...is it place in space (heaven) shifting ...

     And again ...for they never would quit ...accusing God ...again an "angry God" ....and cruel the say he is ...what blasphemey!

YLT (youngs lose trans)  13 Therefore the heavens I cause to tremble, And the earth doth shake from its place, In the wrath of Jehovah of Hosts, And in a day of the heat of his anger. 14 And it hath been, as a roe driven away, And as a flock that hath no gatherer, Each unto his people -- they turn, And each unto his land -- they flee. 15 Every one who is found is thrust through, And every one who is added falleth by sword.

NKJV   13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, And the earth will move out of her place, In the wrath of the LORD of hosts And in the day of His fierce anger. 14 It shall be as the hunted gazelle,And as a sheep that no man takes up; Every man will turn to his own people, And everyone will flee to his own land. 15Everyone who is found will be thrust through, And everyone who is captured will fall by the sword.

Douay (catholic)   13 For this I will make the heavens tremble and the earth shall be shaken from its place, At the wrath of the LORD of hosts on the day of his burning anger. 14 Like a hunted gazelle, or a flock that no one gathers, Every man shall turn to his kindred and flee to his own land. 15 Everyone who is caught shall be run through; to a man, they shall fall by the sword.

     Here we go with the soothsaying "oracle" devinations ...this "oracle" dung comes from the mystic pagan oracles of greek myths ...Look see the times the scholiars have put wicked "oracle" into the "bibles of men" ...niv 36 times, kjv 21 times, nasb 31 times, rsv 30 times. darby 23 times, ylt 20 times, nkjv 19 times, douay (catholic) 76 times ...pretty plain they all agree with the mother of all mens religions ...:(

     whoa ! replaced the name of the Prophet Esai (Isaiah) with what ??!!an oracle ! ...Bet the Prophet is pleased with that NOT ! ...woe ..wonder what will hapen to the names of the scholiars who took out the Prophets name ???

     now what have these scholiars done ...they say the rod of God is broken ?....

     now this word ... cockatrice ...is taken out of 7 of 8 "bibles of men" and might you then miss the five other times such a word is used ...where else in the word of God it is used ?? such is the error of these that have put their had to the fabric of God's word ...the very truth ...that garment of Christ that these would take for themselves and divide (if they could) ...

      of this "saraph" it is seen that the YLT and Douay (calflicks) agree in this wickedness ...each using it many times ...

     Again all the "bibles of men" make the "simple" (simple hearted before God ) ...into the "needy" ...geeesh !

     and the poor of my people shall put their trust in him....HIM ! not the worldly city land or government ...in HIM for God's sake ! in HIM for Christ's sake ...for their sake ...and so it is anpother example of how the rekligious and churchly scholiars have bent peoples necks to trust in places things cerimoanies and all else such things as are the works of men ....

NIV   28 This oracle came in the year King Ahaz died:29 Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken; from the root of that snake will spring up a viper, its fruit will be a darting, venomous serpent.30 The poorest of the poor will find pasture, and the needy will lie down in safety. But your root I will destroy by famine; it will slay your survivors.31 Wail, O gate! Howl, O city! Melt away, all you Philistines! A cloud of smoke comes from the north, and there is not a straggler in its ranks.32 What answer shall be given to the envoys of that nation? "The LORD has established Zion, and in her his afflicted people will find refuge."

Therefore, though you set out the finest plants and plant imported vines,11 though on the day you set them out, you make them grow, and on the morning when you plant them, you bring them to bud, yet the harvest will be as nothing in the day of disease and incurable pain.12 Oh, the raging of many nations-- they rage like the raging sea! Oh, the uproar of the peoples-- they roar like the roaring of great waters!

KJV   10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:11 In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.12 Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!

NASB   10 For you have forgotten the God of your salvation And have not remembered the rock of your refuge. Therefore you plant delightful plants And set them with vine slips of a strange god.11 In the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in, And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom; But the harvest will be a heap In a day of sickliness and incurable pain.12 Alas, the uproar of many peoples Who roar like the roaring of the seas, And the rumbling of nations Who rush on like the rumbling of mighty waters!

RSV   10 For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the Rock of your refuge; therefore, though you plant pleasant plants and set out slips of an alien god,11 though you make them grow on the day that you plant them, and make them blossom in the morning that you sow; yet the harvest will flee away in a day of grief and incurable pain.12 Ah, the thunder of many peoples, they thunder like the thundering of the sea! Ah, the roar of nations, they roar like the roaring of mighty waters!

YLT (youngs lose trans)  10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, And the rock of thy strength hast not remembered, Therefore thou plantest plants of pleasantness, And with a strange slip sowest it,11 In the day thy plant thou causest to become great, And in the morning thy seed makest to flourish, A heap [is] the harvest in a day of overflowing, And of mortal pain.2 Wo [to] the multitude of many peoples, As the sounding of seas they sound; And [to] the wasting of nations, As the wasting of mighty waters they are wasted.

NKJV   10Because you have forgotten the God of your salvation, And have not been mindful of the Rock of your stronghold, Therefore you will plant pleasant plants And set out foreign seedlings; 11In the day you will make your plant to grow, And in the morning you will make your seed to flourish; But the harvest will be a heap of ruins In the day of grief and desperate sorrow. 12Woe to the multitude of many people Who make a noise like the roar of the seas, And to the rushing of nationsThat make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!

Douay (catholic)   10 6 For you have forgotten God, your savior, and remembered not the Rock, your strength. Therefore, though you plant your pagan plants and set out your foreign vine slips, 11 Though you make them grow the day you plant them and make your sprouts blossom on the next morning, The harvest shall disappear on the day of the grievous blow, the incurable blight. 12 7 Ah! the roaring of many peoples that roar like the roar of the seas! The surging of nations that surge like the surging of mighty waves!

NIV   11 O LORD, your hand is lifted high, but they do not see it. Let them see your zeal for your people and be put to shame; let the fire reserved for your enemies consume them.12 LORD, you establish peace for us; all that we have accomplished you have done for us.13 O LORD, our God, other lords besides you have ruled over us, but your name alone do we honor.14 They are now dead, they live no more; those departed spirits do not rise. You punished them and brought them to ruin; you wiped out all memory of them.15 You have enlarged the nation, O LORD; you have enlarged the nation. You have gained glory for yourself; you have extended all the borders of the land.16 LORD, they came to you in their distress; when you disciplined them, they could barely whisper a prayer. 17 As a woman with child and about to give birth writhes and cries out in her pain, so were we in your presence, O LORD.18 We were with child, we writhed in pain, but we gave birth to wind. We have not brought salvation to the earth; we have not given birth to people of the world.

KJV   11 LORD, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.12 LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.13 O LORD our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.14 They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.15 Thou hast increased the nation, O LORD, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified: thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.6 LORD, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.17 Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O LORD.18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

NASB   11 O LORD, Your hand is lifted up yet they do not see it. They see Your zeal for the people and are put to shame; Indeed, fire will devour Your enemies.12 LORD, You will establish peace for us, Since You have also performed for us all our works.13 O LORD our God, other masters besides You have ruled us; But through You alone we confess Your name.14 The dead will not live, the departed spirits will not rise; Therefore You have punished and destroyed them, And You have wiped out all remembrance of them.15 You have increased the nation, O LORD, You have increased the nation, You are glorified; You have extended all the borders of the land.16 O LORD, they sought You in distress; They could only whisper a prayer, Your chastening was upon them.17 As the pregnant woman approaches the time to give birth, She writhes and cries out in her labor pains, Thus were we before You, O LORD.18 We were pregnant, we writhed in labor, We gave birth, as it seems, only to wind. We could not accomplish deliverance for the earth, Nor were inhabitants of the world born.

We have wrought no deliverance in the earth, and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.

DARBY   11 Jehovah, thy hand is lifted up, but they do not see: [yet] they shall see [thy] jealousy [for] the people, and be ashamed; yea, the fire which is for thine adversaries shall devour them.12 Jehovah, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for thou also hast wrought all our works for us.13 Jehovah our God, other lords than thee have had dominion over us; by thee only will we make mention of thy name.14 [They are] dead, they shall not live; deceased, they shall not rise: for thou hast visited and destroyed them, and made all memory of them to perish.15 Thou hast increased the nation, Jehovah, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified. Thou hadst removed [it] far [unto] all the ends of the earth.16 Jehovah, in trouble they sought thee; they poured out [their] whispered prayer when thy chastening was upon them.17 As a woman with child, that draweth near her delivery, is in travail, [and] crieth out in her pangs; so have we been before thee, Jehovah.18 We have been with child, we have been in travail, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought the deliverance of the land, neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

We have brought forth as it were wind, Salvation we do not work in the earth, Nor do the inhabitants of the world fall.

NKJV   11LORD, when Your hand is lifted up, they will not see. But they will see and be ashamed For their envy of people; Yes, the fire of Your enemies shall devour them. 12LORD, You will establish peace for us, For You have also done all our works in us. 13O LORD our God, masters besides You Have had dominion over us; But by You only we make mention of Your name. 14They are dead, they will not live; They are deceased, they will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them, And made all their memory to perish. 15You have increased the nation, O LORD, You have increased the nation; You are glorified; You have expanded all the borders of the land. 16LORD, in trouble they have visited You, They poured out a prayer when Your chastening was upon them. 17As a woman with child Is in pain and cries out in her pangs, When she draws near the time of her delivery, So have we been in Your sight, O LORD. 18We have been with child, we have been in pain; We have, as it were, brought forth wind; We have not accomplished any deliverance in the earth, Nor have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

Douay (catholic)   11 O LORD, your hand is uplifted, but they behold it not; Let them be shamed when they see your zeal for your people: let the fire prepared for your enemies consume them. 12 O LORD, you mete out peace to us, for it is you who have accomplished all we have done. 13 O LORD, our God, other lords than you have ruled us; it is from you only that we can call upon your name. 14 Dead they are, they have no life, shades that cannot rise; For you have punished and destroyed them, and wiped out all memory of them. 15 You have increased the nation, O LORD, increased the nation to your own glory, and extended far all the borders of the land. 16 O LORD, oppressed by your punishment, we cried out in anguish under your chastising. 17 As a woman about to give birth writhes and cries out in her pains, so were we in your presence, O LORD. 18 We conceived and writhed in pain, giving birth to wind; Salvation we have not achieved for the earth, the inhabitants of the world cannot bring it forth.

"balance of equity "..balance is perfect ...perfect fairness ...NOT the "judgement of the governments OR the religious and churchly ...

NIV   1 See, a king will reign in righteousness and rulers will rule with justice.2 Each man will be like a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in the desert and the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land.3 Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen.

KJV   1 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment.2 And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.3 And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken.

NASB   1 Behold, a king will reign righteously And princes will rule justly.2 Each will be like a refuge from the wind And a shelter from the storm, Like streams of water in a dry country, Like the shade of a huge rock in a parched land.3 Then the eyes of those who see will not be blinded, And the ears of those who hear will listen.

     unperfect tongue ...is NOT a tongue of a soul with an impediment of speech ...as the biles of man would have you believe ...yet is ...a tongue that speaks unperfect words before God ...and the measure is this; having a heart for the truth ...yet our witness might be unperfect ...yet we allways desire the perfect words ...Not as the religious and churchly lords (small l) who boast of their scholiarship ...and proud speeches witch are nothing more than unGodly imaginations of their own ...

     ** * these two words mean: **nigard = miserly, cheap, petty, stingy and ignoble. churle = boorish, rude, crude, fat with stingy desire for money. Also note: **Used as an evil term against a member of any dark-skinned people. Used as a evil term for a member of any socially, economically, or politically deprived group of people: Indeed, as we see today, the world is up side down.for the ones call the names are the very ones who have obtained their title as nigardly and churlish ... thats not churchlish is it ? no i won't go that far ...yet if the religious hat fits wear it ...

     this term "liberal" has been corrupted in the modern use and meaning of it ...here (and else where) see the true meaning ...

NIV   4 The mind of the rash will know and understand, and the stammering tongue will be fluent and clear.5 No longer will the fool be called noble nor the scoundrel be highly respected.6 For the fool speaks folly, his mind is busy with evil: He practices ungodliness and spreads error concerning the LORD; the hungry he leaves empty and from the thirsty he withholds water.7 The scoundrel's methods are wicked, he makes up evil schemes to destroy the poor with lies, even when the plea of the needy is just.8 But the noble man makes noble plans, and by noble deeds he stands.

KJV   4 The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.5 The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful.6 For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.7 The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.8 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.

NASB   4 The 1] mind of the hasty will discern the truth, And the tongue of the stammerers will hasten to speak clearly.5 No longer will the fool be called noble, Or the rogue be spoken of as generous.6 For a fool speaks nonsense, And his heart inclines toward wickedness: To practice ungodliness and to speak error against the LORD, To keep the hungry person unsatisfied And to withhold drink from the thirsty.7 As for a rogue, his weapons are evil; He devises wicked schemes To destroy the afflicted with slander, Even though the needy one speaks what is right.8 But the noble man devises noble plans; And by noble plans he stands.

RSV   4 The mind of the rash will have good judgment, and the tongue of the stammerers will speak readily and distinctly.5 The fool will no more be called noble, nor the knave said to be honorable.6 For the fool speaks folly, and his mind plots iniquity: to practice ungodliness, to utter error concerning the LORD, to leave the craving of the hungry unsatisfied, and to deprive the thirsty of drink.7 The knaveries of the knave are evil; he devises wicked devices to ruin the poor with lying words, even when the plea of the needy is right.8 But he who is noble devises noble things, and by noble things he stands.

DARBY   4 and the heart of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.5 The vile man shall be no more called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful:6 for the vile man will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against Jehovah, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.7 The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.8 But the noble deviseth noble things; and to noble things doth he stand.

YLT (youngs lose trans)  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.

NKJV   4 Also the heart of the rash will understand knowledge,And the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly. The foolish person will no longer be called generous,Nor the miser said to be bountiful; 6For the foolish person will speak foolishness,And his heart will work iniquity: To practice ungodliness, To utter error against the LORD, To keep the hungry unsatisfied, And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.7Also the schemes of the schemer are evil; He devises wicked plans To destroy the poor with lying words, Even when the needy speaks justice.8But a generous man devises generous things, And by generosity he shall stand.

Douay (catholic)   4 The flighty will become wise and capable, and the stutterers will speak fluently and clearly. 4 No more will the fool be called noble, nor the trickster be considered honorable, 6 For the fool speaks foolishly, planning evil in his heart:. How to do wickedness, to speak perversely against the LORD, To let the hungry go empty and the thirsty be without drink,7 And the trickster uses wicked trickery, planning crimes: How to ruin the poor with lies, and the needy when they plead their case. 8 But the noble man plans noble things, and by noble things he stands.

But only the redeemed will walk there,10 and the ransomed of the LORD will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

RSV   7 the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; the haunt of jackals shall become a swamp, the grass shall become reeds and rushes.8 And a highway shall be there, and it shall be called the Holy Way; the unclean shall not pass over it, and fools shall not err therein.9 No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it; they shall not be found there, but the redeemed shall walk there.10 And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

DARBY   7 And the mirage shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of wild dogs, where they lay down, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.8 And a highway shall be there and a way, and it shall be called, The way of holiness: the unclean shall not pass through it; but it shall be for these. Those that go [this] way -- even fools, -- shall not err [therein].9 No lion shall be there, nor shall ravenous beast go up thereon, nor be found there; but the redeemed shall walk [there].10 And the ransomed of Jehovah shall return, and come to Zion with singing; and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

YLT (youngs lose trans)  7 And the mirage hath become a pond, And the thirsty land fountains of waters, In the habitation of dragons, Its place of couching down, a court for reed and rush.8 And a highway hath been there, and a way, And the `way of holiness' is called to it, Not pass over it doth the unclean, And He Himself [is] by them, Whoso is going in the way -- even fools err not.9 No lion is there, yea, a destructive beast Ascendeth it not, it is not found there, And walked have the redeemed,10 And the ransomed of Jehovah return, And have entered Zion with singing. And joy age-during on their head, Joy and gladness they attain, And fled away have sorrow and sighing!

NKJV   7 The parched ground shall become a pool, And the thirsty land springs of water; In the habitation of jackals, where each lay, There shall be grass with reeds and rushes. 8A highway shall be there, and a road, And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, But it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, Shall not go astray. 9No lion shall be there, Nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it; It shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk there, 10And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, And come to Zion with singing, With everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

Douay (catholic)   7 The burning sands will become pools, and the thirsty ground, springs of water; The abode where jackals lurk will be a marsh for the reed and papyrus. 8 A highway will be there, called the holy way; No one unclean may pass over it, nor fools go astray on it. 9 No lion will be there, nor beast of prey go up to be met upon it. It is for those with a journey to make, and on it the redeemed will walk.10 Those whom the LORD has ransomed will return and enter Zion singing, crowned with everlasting joy; They will meet with joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning will flee.
