| Isaiah 57:1 | The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil [to come]. | The upright man goes to his death, and no one gives a thought to it; and god-fearing men are taken away, and no one is troubled by it; for the upright man is taken away because of evil-doing, and goes into peace. | | The just perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart, and men of mercy are taken away, because there is none that understandeth; for the just man is taken away from before the face of evil. |
| Isaiah 57:2 | He entereth into peace; they rest in their beds, each one that walketh in his uprightness. | They are at rest in their last resting-places, every one going straight before him. | | Let peace come, let him rest in his bed that hath walked in his uprightness. |
| Isaiah 57:3 | But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the harlot. | But come near, you sons of her who is wise in secret arts, the seed of her who is false to her husband, and of the loose woman. | | But draw near hither, you sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer, and of the harlot. |
| Isaiah 57:4 | Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and put out the tongue? are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood, | Of whom do you make sport? against whom is your mouth open wide and your tongue put out? are you not uncontrolled children, a false seed, | | Upon whom have you jested? upon whom have you opened your mouth wide, and put out your tongue? are not you wicked children, a false seed, |
| Isaiah 57:5 | ye that inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree; that slay the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks? | You who are burning with evil desire among the oaks, under every green tree; putting children to death in the valleys, under the cracks of the rocks? | | Who seek your comfort in idols under every green tree, sacrificing children in the torrents, under the high rocks? |
| Isaiah 57:6 | Among the smooth [stones] of the valley is thy portion; they, they are thy lot; even to them hast thou poured a drink-offering, thou hast offered an oblation. Shall I be appeased for these things? | Among the smooth stones of the valley is your heritage; they, even they, are your part: even to them have you made a drink offering and a meal offering. Is it possible for such things to be overlooked by me? | | In the parts of the torrent is thy portion, this is thy lot: and thou hast poured out libations to them, thou hast offered sacrifice. Shall I not be angry at these things? |
| Isaiah 57:7 | Upon a high and lofty mountain hast thou set thy bed; thither also wentest thou up to offer sacrifice. | You have put your bed on a high mountain: there you went up to make your offering. | | Upon a high and lofty mountain thou hast laid thy bed, and hast gone up thither to offer victims. |
| Isaiah 57:8 | And behind the doors and the posts hast thou set up thy memorial: for thou hast uncovered [thyself] to another than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made thee a covenant with them: thou lovedst their bed where thou sawest it. | And on the back of the doors and on the pillars you have put your sign: for you have been false to me with another; you have made your bed wide, and made an agreement with them; you had a desire for their bed where you saw it | | And behind the door, and behind the post thou best set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered thyself near me, and hast received an adulterer: thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made a covenant with them: thou hast loved their bed with open hand. |
| Isaiah 57:9 | And thou wentest to the king with oil, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thine ambassadors far off, and didst debase thyself even unto Sheol. | And you went to Melech with oil and much perfume, and you sent your representatives far off, and went as low as the underworld. | | And thou hast adorned thyself for the king with ointment, and hast multiplied thy perfumes. Thou hast sent thy messengers far off, and wast debased even to hell. |
| Isaiah 57:10 | Thou wast wearied with the length of thy way; yet saidst thou not, It is in vain: thou didst find a quickening of thy strength; therefore thou wast not faint. | You were tired with your long journeys; but you did not say, There is no hope: you got new strength, and so you were not feeble. | | Thou hast been wearied in the multitude of thy ways: yet thou saidst not: I will rest: thou hast found life of thy hand, therefore thou hast not asked. |
| Isaiah 57:11 | And of whom hast thou been afraid and in fear, that thou liest, and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of long time, and thou fearest me not? | And of whom were you in fear, so that you were false, and did not keep me in mind, or give thought to it? Have I not been quiet, keeping myself secret, and so you were not in fear of me? | | For whom hast thou been solicitous and afraid, that thou hast lied, and hast not been mindful of me, nor thought on me in thy heart? for I am silent, and as one that seeth not, and thou hast forgotten me. |

| Isaiah 57:13 | When thou criest, let them that thou hast gathered deliver thee; but the wind shall take them, a breath shall carry them all away: but he that taketh refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain. | Your false gods will not keep you safe in answer to your cry; but the wind will take them, they will be gone like a breath: but he who puts his hope in me will take the land, and will have my holy mountain as his heritage. | | When thou shalt cry, let thy companies deliver thee, but the wind shall carry them all off, a breeze shall take them away, but he that putteth his trust in me, shall inherit the land, and shall possess my holy mount. |
| Isaiah 57:14 | And he will say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my people. | And I will say, Make it high, make it high, get ready the way, take the stones out of the way of my people. | | And I will say: Make a way: give free passage, turn out of the path, take away the stumblingblocks out of the way of my people. |

| Isaiah 57:16 | For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls that I have made. | For I will not give punishment for ever, or be angry without end: for from me breath goes out; and I it was who made the souls. | | For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be angry unto the end: because the spirit shall go forth from my face, end breathings I will make. |
