Can you hear the Roar of the LION of JUDAH?
Isaiah 53 American Standard Version (ASV)
1 Who hath
believed our message? and to whom hath the arm of Jehovah been revealed?
2 For he grew up before him as a tender plant,
and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we
see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He was despised, and rejected of men; a man
of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face
he was despised; and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried
our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him;
and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have
turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath laid on him the iniquity of
us all.
7 He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted
he opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep
that before its shearers is dumb, so he opened not his mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken
away; and as for his generation, who among them considered that he was cut off
out of the land of the living for the transgression of my people to whom the
stroke was due?
9 And they made his grave with the wicked, and
with a rich man in his death; although he had done no violence, neither was any
deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he
hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he
shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah
shall prosper in his hand.
11 He shall see of the travail of his soul,
and shall be satisfied: by the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant
justify many; and he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with
the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out
his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors: yet he bare the
sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Psalm 22 American Standard Version (ASV)
For the
Chief Musician; set to Aijaleth hash-Shahar. A Psalm of David.
1My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?
2 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou
answerest not; And in the night season, and am not silent.
3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest
the praises of Israel.
4 Our fathers trusted in thee: They trusted,
and thou didst deliver them.
5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered:
They trusted in thee, and were not put to shame.
6 But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of
men, and despised of the people.
7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: They
shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 Commit thyself unto Jehovah; Let him deliver
him: Let him rescue him, seeing he delighteth in him.
9 But thou art he that took me out of the
womb; Thou didst make me trust when I was upon my mother's breasts.
10 I was cast upon thee from the womb; Thou
art my God since my mother bare me.
11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near;
For there is none to help.
12 Many bulls have compassed me; Strong bulls
of Bashan have beset me round.
13 They gape upon me with their mouth, As a
ravening and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, And all my
bones are out of joint: My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd;
And my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; And thou hast brought me into the dust of
death.
16 For dogs have compassed me: A company of
evil-doers have inclosed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may count all my bones; They look and
stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, And upon
my vesture do they cast lots.
19 But be not thou far off, O Jehovah: O thou
my succor, haste thee to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword, My darling
from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lion's mouth; Yea, from
the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.
22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren:
In the midst of the assembly will I praise thee.
23 Ye that fear Jehovah, praise him; All ye
the seed of Jacob, glorify him; And stand in awe of him, all ye the seed of
Israel.
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the
affliction of the afflicted; Neither hath he hid his face from him; But when he
cried unto him, he heard.
25 Of thee cometh my praise in the great
assembly: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied; They
shall praise Jehovah that seek after him: Let your heart live for ever.
27 All the ends of the earth shall remember
and turn unto Jehovah; And all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before
thee.
28 For the kingdom is Jehovah's; And he is the
ruler over the nations.
29 All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and
worship: All they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, Even he that
cannot keep his soul alive.
30 A seed shall serve him; It shall be told of
the Lord unto the next generation.
31 They shall come and shall declare his
righteousness Unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done it.
John 1:9 American Standard Version (ASV)
9 There was the true light, even the light
which lighteth every man, coming into the world.
Revelation 13:8 American Standard Version (ASV)
8 And all that dwell on the earth shall
worship him, every one whose name hath not been written from the foundation of
the world in the book of life of the Lamb that hath been slain.
