Revised Version 1885

Isaiah 9:11-16 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

11. Therefore the Lord shall set up on high against him the adversaries of Rezin, and shall stir up his enemies;

12. the Syrians before, and the Philistines behind, and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

13. Yet the people hath not turned unto him that smote them, neither have they sought the Lord of hosts.

14. Therefore the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm-branch and rush, in one day.

15. The ancient and the honourable man, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.

16. For they that lead this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.
