'Lord' in the Bible

Who has believed our message?And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

All of us like sheep have gone astray,Each of us has turned to his own way;But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us allTo fall on Him.

But the Lord was pleasedTo crush Him, putting Him to grief;If He would render Himself as a guilt offering,He will see His offspring,He will prolong His days,And the good pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.

“Shout for joy, O barren one, you who have borne no child;Break forth into joyful shouting and cry aloud, you who have not travailed;For the sons of the desolate one will be more numerousThan the sons of the married woman,” says the Lord.

“For your husband is your Maker,Whose name is the Lord of hosts;And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel,Who is called the God of all the earth.

“For the Lord has called you,Like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit,Even like a wife of one’s youth when she is rejected,”Says your God.

“In an outburst of angerI hid My face from you for a moment,But with everlasting lovingkindness I will have compassion on you,”Says the Lord your Redeemer.

“For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake,But My lovingkindness will not be removed from you,And My covenant of peace will not be shaken,”Says the Lord who has compassion on you.

“All your sons will be taught of the Lord;And the well-being of your sons will be great.

“No weapon that is formed against you will prosper;And every tongue that accuses you in judgment you will condemn.This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,And their vindication is from Me,” declares the Lord.

“Behold, you will call a nation you do not know,And a nation which knows you not will run to you,Because of the Lord your God, even the Holy One of Israel;For He has glorified you.”

Seek the Lord while He may be found;Call upon Him while He is near.

Let the wicked forsake his wayAnd the unrighteous man his thoughts;And let him return to the Lord,And He will have compassion on him,And to our God,For He will abundantly pardon.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.

“Instead of the thorn bush the cypress will come up,And instead of the nettle the myrtle will come up,And it will be a memorial to the Lord,For an everlasting sign which will not be cut off.”

Thus says the Lord,“Preserve justice and do righteousness,For My salvation is about to comeAnd My righteousness to be revealed.

Let not the foreigner who has joined himself to the Lord say,“The Lord will surely separate me from His people.”Nor let the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”

For thus says the Lord,“To the eunuchs who keep My sabbaths,And choose what pleases Me,And hold fast My covenant,

“Also the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,To minister to Him, and to love the name of the Lord,To be His servants, every one who keeps from profaning the sabbathAnd holds fast My covenant;

The Lord God, who gathers the dispersed of Israel, declares,“Yet others I will gather to them, to those already gathered.”

Creating the praise of the lips.Peace, peace to him who is far and to him who is near,”Says the Lord, “and I will heal him.”

“Is it a fast like this which I choose, a day for a man to humble himself?Is it for bowing one’s head like a reedAnd for spreading out sackcloth and ashes as a bed?Will you call this a fast, even an acceptable day to the Lord?

“Then your light will break out like the dawn,And your recovery will speedily spring forth;And your righteousness will go before you;The glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.

“Then you will call, and the Lord will answer;You will cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’If you remove the yoke from your midst,The pointing of the finger and speaking wickedness,

“And the Lord will continually guide you,And satisfy your desire in scorched places,And give strength to your bones;And you will be like a watered garden,And like a spring of water whose waters do not fail.

“If because of the sabbath, you turn your footFrom doing your own pleasure on My holy day,And call the sabbath a delight, the holy day of the Lord honorable,And honor it, desisting from your own ways,From seeking your own pleasureAnd speaking your own word,

Then you will take delight in the Lord,And I will make you ride on the heights of the earth;And I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father,For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”

Transgressing and denying the Lord,And turning away from our God,Speaking oppression and revolt,Conceiving in and uttering from the heart lying words.

Yes, truth is lacking;And he who turns aside from evil makes himself a prey.Now the Lord saw,And it was displeasing in His sight that there was no justice.

So they will fear the name of the Lord from the westAnd His glory from the rising of the sun,For He will come like a rushing streamWhich the wind of the Lord drives.

“A Redeemer will come to Zion,And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob,” declares the Lord.

“As for Me, this is My covenant with them,” says the Lord: “My Spirit which is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your offspring, nor from the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says the Lord, “from now and forever.”

“Arise, shine; for your light has come,And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.

“For behold, darkness will cover the earthAnd deep darkness the peoples;But the Lord will rise upon youAnd His glory will appear upon you.

“A multitude of camels will cover you,The young camels of Midian and Ephah;All those from Sheba will come;They will bring gold and frankincense,And will bear good news of the praises of the Lord.

“Surely the coastlands will wait for Me;And the ships of Tarshish will come first,To bring your sons from afar,Their silver and their gold with them,For the name of the Lord your God,And for the Holy One of Israel because He has glorified you.

“The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you,And all those who despised you will bow themselves at the soles of your feet;And they will call you the city of the Lord,The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

“You will also suck the milk of nationsAnd suck the breast of kings;Then you will know that I, the Lord, am your SaviorAnd your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

“No longer will you have the sun for light by day,Nor for brightness will the moon give you light;But you will have the Lord for an everlasting light,And your God for your glory.

“Your sun will no longer set,Nor will your moon wane;For you will have the Lord for an everlasting light,And the days of your mourning will be over.

“The smallest one will become a clan,And the least one a mighty nation.I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.”

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,Because the Lord has anointed meTo bring good news to the afflicted;He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,To proclaim liberty to captivesAnd freedom to prisoners;

To proclaim the favorable year of the LordAnd the day of vengeance of our God;To comfort all who mourn,

To grant those who mourn in Zion,Giving them a garland instead of ashes,The oil of gladness instead of mourning,The mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting.So they will be called oaks of righteousness,The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.

But you will be called the priests of the Lord;You will be spoken of as ministers of our God.You will eat the wealth of nations,And in their riches you will boast.

For I, the Lord, love justice,I hate robbery in the burnt offering;And I will faithfully give them their recompenseAnd make an everlasting covenant with them.

Then their offspring will be known among the nations,And their descendants in the midst of the peoples.All who see them will recognize themBecause they are the offspring whom the Lord has blessed.

I will rejoice greatly in the Lord,My soul will exult in my God;For He has clothed me with garments of salvation,He has wrapped me with a robe of righteousness,As a bridegroom decks himself with a garland,And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,And as a garden causes the things sown in it to spring up,So the Lord God will cause righteousness and praiseTo spring up before all the nations.

The nations will see your righteousness,And all kings your glory;And you will be called by a new nameWhich the mouth of the Lord will designate.

You will also be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,And a royal diadem in the hand of your God.

It will no longer be said to you, “Forsaken,”Nor to your land will it any longer be said, “Desolate”;But you will be called, “My delight is in her,”And your land, “Married”;For the Lord delights in you,And to Him your land will be married.

On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen;All day and all night they will never keep silent.You who remind the Lord, take no rest for yourselves;

The Lord has sworn by His right hand and by His strong arm,“I will never again give your grain as food for your enemies;Nor will foreigners drink your new wine for which you have labored.”

But those who garner it will eat it and praise the Lord;And those who gather it will drink it in the courts of My sanctuary.

Behold, the Lord has proclaimed to the end of the earth,Say to the daughter of Zion, “Lo, your salvation comes;Behold His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him.”

And they will call them, “The holy people,The redeemed of the Lord”;And you will be called, “Sought out, a city not forsaken.”

I shall make mention of the lovingkindnesses of the Lord, the praises of the Lord,According to all that the Lord has granted us,And the great goodness toward the house of Israel,Which He has granted them according to His compassionAnd according to the abundance of His lovingkindnesses.

As the cattle which go down into the valley,The Spirit of the Lord gave them rest.So You led Your people,To make for Yourself a glorious name.

For You are our Father, though Abraham does not know usAnd Israel does not recognize us.You, O Lord, are our Father,Our Redeemer from of old is Your name.

Why, O Lord, do You cause us to stray from Your waysAnd harden our heart from fearing You?Return for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.

But now, O Lord, You are our Father,We are the clay, and You our potter;And all of us are the work of Your hand.

Do not be angry beyond measure, O Lord,Nor remember iniquity forever;Behold, look now, all of us are Your people.

Will You restrain Yourself at these things, O Lord?Will You keep silent and afflict us beyond measure?

Both their own iniquities and the iniquities of their fathers together,” says the Lord.“Because they have burned incense on the mountainsAnd scorned Me on the hills,Therefore I will measure their former work into their bosom.”

Thus says the Lord,“As the new wine is found in the cluster,And one says, ‘Do not destroy it, for there is benefit in it,’So I will act on behalf of My servantsIn order not to destroy all of them.

“But you who forsake the Lord,Who forget My holy mountain,Who set a table for Fortune,And who fill cups with mixed wine for Destiny,

Therefore, thus says the Lord God,“Behold, My servants will eat, but you will be hungry.Behold, My servants will drink, but you will be thirsty.Behold, My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.

“You will leave your name for a curse to My chosen ones,And the Lord God will slay you.But My servants will be called by another name.

“They will not labor in vain,Or bear children for calamity;For they are the offspring of those blessed by the Lord,And their descendants with them.

The wolf and the lamb will graze together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox; and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will do no evil or harm in all My holy mountain,” says the Lord.

Thus says the Lord,“Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool.Where then is a house you could build for Me?And where is a place that I may rest?

“For My hand made all these things,Thus all these things came into being,” declares the Lord.“But to this one I will look,To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.

Hear the word of the Lord, you who tremble at His word:“Your brothers who hate you, who exclude you for My name’s sake,Have said, ‘Let the Lord be glorified, that we may see your joy.’But they will be put to shame.

“A voice of uproar from the city, a voice from the temple,The voice of the Lord who is rendering recompense to His enemies.

“Shall I bring to the point of birth and not give delivery?” says the Lord.“Or shall I who gives delivery shut the womb?” says your God.

For thus says the Lord, “Behold, I extend peace to her like a river,And the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream;And you will be nursed, you will be carried on the hip and fondled on the knees.

Then you will see this, and your heart will be glad,And your bones will flourish like the new grass;And the hand of the Lord will be made known to His servants,But He will be indignant toward His enemies.

For behold, the Lord will come in fireAnd His chariots like the whirlwind,To render His anger with fury,And His rebuke with flames of fire.

For the Lord will execute judgment by fireAnd by His sword on all flesh,And those slain by the Lord will be many.

“Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go to the gardens,Following one in the center,Who eat swine’s flesh, detestable things and mice,Will come to an end altogether,” declares the Lord.

I will also take some of them for priests and for Levites,” says the Lord.

“For just as the new heavens and the new earthWhich I make will endure before Me,” declares the Lord,“So your offspring and your name will endure.

“And it shall be from new moon to new moonAnd from sabbath to sabbath,All mankind will come to bow down before Me,” says the Lord.

to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.

Now the word of the Lord came to me saying,

Then I said, “Alas, Lord God!Behold, I do not know how to speak,Because I am a youth.”

But the Lord said to me,“Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’Because everywhere I send you, you shall go,And all that I command you, you shall speak.

“Do not be afraid of them,For I am with you to deliver you,” declares the Lord.

Then the Lord stretched out His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me,“Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.

The word of the Lord came to me saying, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” And I said, “I see a rod of an almond tree.”

Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over My word to perform it.”

The word of the Lord came to me a second time saying, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a boiling pot, facing away from the north.”

Then the Lord said to me, “Out of the north the evil will break forth on all the inhabitants of the land.

For, behold, I am calling all the families of the kingdoms of the north,” declares the Lord; “and they will come and they will set each one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its walls round about and against all the cities of Judah.

They will fight against you, but they will not overcome you, for I am with you to deliver you,” declares the Lord.

Now the word of the Lord came to me saying,

“Go and proclaim in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord,“I remember concerning you the devotion of your youth,The love of your betrothals,Your following after Me in the wilderness,Through a land not sown.

“Israel was holy to the Lord,The first of His harvest.All who ate of it became guilty;Evil came upon them,” declares the Lord.’”
