Psalms ; Isaiah 1, verse 8-9
Source: Bible New International Version
8 Daughter Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a cucumber field, like a city under siege. 9 Unless the Lord Almighty had left us some survivors, we would have become like Sodom, we would have been like Gomorrah.
يروشلم کے لئے ہدايت
8 صیّون کی بیٹی اب تاکستان میں جھو نپڑی یا ککڑی کے کھیت میں چھّپر یا محاصرہ کیا ہوا شہر کی طرح ہے۔ 9 یہ سچ ہے لیکن پھر بھی خدا وند قادر مطلق نے لوگوں کو وہاں زندہ رہنے کے لئے چھو ڑ دیا تھا سدوم اور عمورہ کی طرح ہمیں پوری طرح نیست و نابود نہیں کیا گیا تھا۔
My point of view about above verses
God is seen by Isaiah in a vision
Lord says I raised Israel but they don’t know me. Ox knows its master and donkey knows its feeding container where its owner provide it feed but Israel do not understand me
God is concerned about Israelites whom He raised with love and care
God told woe to sinful nation whose guilt is great as they have rejected the God who cares for them
God asked Israelites why you carry on rebellion so because of your rebellious nature you are full of wound from head to toe, your heart is sick and there is no soundness in you – you have open sores – your wounds are not bandaged as you go against me
Your country is desolate and your cities are burned with fire and your fields are taken over by strangers
However God did not destroy Zion as Sadoom and Gomorroh and left some survivors
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
