Isaiah 32:6-8

Isaiah 32:6-8

[6] For the vile person  will speak  villany,  and his heart  will work  iniquity,  to practise  hypocrisy,  and to utter  error  to make empty  the soul  of the hungry,  and he will cause the drink  of the thirsty  to fail.  [7] The instruments  also of the churl  are evil:  he deviseth  wicked devices  to destroy  with lying  words,  even when the needy  speaketh  right.  [8] But the liberal  deviseth  liberal things;  shall he stand.

Contextual Meaning

These verses expound further on the changes that will take place in fools and rogues. Their present characteristics are all too familiar, but these will change with the coming of Messiah. Fools disregard their moral and spiritual obligations. Rogues work deviously for their own advantage at the expense of others. In contrast, noble people are liberally outgoing to God and others.
