Berean Standard Bible
Thus
saith
the LORD to his anointed, to
Cyrus,
whose right hand I have holden,
to subdue nations before him ;
and
I
will
loose
the
loins
of
kings, to open before him the
two
leaved
gates;
and
the gates shall
not be shut ;
This
is
what
the LORD says
to Cyrus
His anointed, whose right hand I have grasped
to subdue nations before him ,
to
disarm
kings, to open the
doors
before him ,
so
that
the gates will
not be shut :
I will go before thee,
and make
the crooked
places
straight:
I will break in
pieces
the gates of brass,
and cut in
sunder
the bars of iron :
“
I will go before you
and level
the mountains;
I will break down
the gates of bronze
and cut through
the bars of iron .
And
I will give thee
the treasures of darkness ,
and hidden
riches of
secret places, that thou
mayest
know that I ,
the LORD, which
call
thee
by
thy
name,
am
the God of Israel.
I will give you
the treasures of darkness and the
riches hidden
in
secret places, so
that you
may
know that I am
the LORD, the God of Israel ,
who
calls
you
by
name
.
For Jacob my servant's
sake,
and Israel mine
elect
, I have
even
called
thee
by thy
name :
I have surnamed
thee
, though thou
hast
not known me.
For the
sake
of
Jacob My servant
and Israel My
chosen
one
, I call
you
by name ;
I have given
you
a
title
of
honor
, though you
have
not known Me.
I am the LORD, and there is none
else,
there is no God beside
me :
I girded
thee
, though thou
hast
not known me :
I am the LORD, and there is no
other;
there is no God but
Me .
I will
equip
you
for
battle
, though you
have
not known Me ,
That they
may know from
the
rising
of
the
sun
, and
from the west
, that there is none beside
me .
I am the LORD, and there is none
else
.
so
that all
may know, from where
the sun
rises
to
where
it
sets
, that there is none but
Me ;
I am the LORD, and there is no
other
.
I form the light ,
and create darkness :
I make
peace,
and create evil:
I the LORD do all these things.
I form the light and create the
darkness ;
I bring
prosperity
and create calamity.
I ,
the LORD ,
do all these things.
Drop
down, ye
heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness :
let the earth open ,
and
let
them
bring
forth
salvation ,
and let
righteousness spring up together
; I the LORD have created it.
Drip
down, O
heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness .
Let the earth open up
that
salvation may
sprout
and righteousness spring up with
it
; I ,
the LORD ,
have created it.
Woe unto
him that
striveth
with his Maker !
Let
the
potsherd
strive
with
the
potsherds
of
the
earth
. Shall
the clay say
to
him
that
fashioneth
it
, What makest
thou
? or
thy
work, He hath
no hands?
Woe to
him who
quarrels
with his Maker —
one
clay
pot
among
many
. Does
the clay ask
the
potter
, ‘
What are
you
making
? ’
Does
your
work say
, ‘
He has
no hands ’
?
Woe unto
him that
saith
unto
his father, What begettest
thou
? or to the
woman
, What hast
thou
brought forth?
Woe to
him who
says
to
his father, ‘
What have
you
begotten
? ’
or to his
mother
, ‘
What have
you
brought forth? ’”
Thus saith
the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his
Maker ,
Ask
me of
things
to
come
concerning
my sons, and
concerning
the work of my hands command
ye
me.
Thus says
the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and its
Maker :
“How
dare
you
question
Me about
My sons, or
instruct
Me
in
the work of My hands ?
I have
made the earth ,
and created man upon it :
I,
even
my hands ,
have
stretched out the heavens, and all their host have
I
commanded
.
It
is
I who
made the earth and created man upon it .
It
was
My hands that
stretched out the heavens, and I
ordained
all their host.
I have
raised
him
up in righteousness, and I will direct
all his ways :
he shall
build
my city ,
and he
shall
let
go
my captives
, not for price
nor
reward, saith
the LORD of hosts.
I will
raise
up Cyrus
in righteousness, and I will make
all his ways straight.
He will
rebuild
My city and set
My exiles
free
, but
not for payment
or
reward, says
the LORD of Hosts. ”
Thus
saith
the LORD ,
The labour
of Egypt ,
and merchandise of Ethiopia
and
of
the Sabeans, men of stature, shall
come over unto
thee,
and they
shall
be thine:
they shall
come
after
thee
; in
chains
they shall
come over ,
and they
shall
fall
down unto
thee,
they shall
make
supplication
unto
thee,
saying,
Surely
God is in
thee;
and there is none
else,
there is no God.
This
is
what
the LORD says:
“
The products
of Egypt and the
merchandise of Cush,
along
with
the Sabeans, men of stature, will
come over to
you
and will
be yours;
they will
trudge
behind
you
; they will
come over in
chains
and bow
down to
you.
They will
confess
to
you:
‘
God is indeed
with
you,
and there is no
other;
there is no other
God. ’”
Verily
thou
art
a God that
hidest
thyself
, O God of Israel, the Saviour
.
Truly
You
are
a God who
hides
Himself
, O God of Israel, the Savior
.
They shall
be
ashamed,
and
also
confounded,
all of
them:
they
shall
go
to confusion
together
that
are
makers of idols.
They will
all be
put
to shame
and
humiliated;
the
makers of idols will
depart
together
in
disgrace
.
But Israel shall
be saved in
the LORD with an everlasting salvation :
ye
shall
not be ashamed
nor
confounded
world
without
end
.
But Israel will
be saved by
the LORD with an everlasting salvation ;
you
will
not be put
to
shame
or
humiliated,
to
ages
everlasting
.
For thus saith
the LORD that
created the heavens ;
God himself
that
formed the earth and made
it; he hath
established it ,
he created
it
not in
vain
, he
formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD ;
and there is none
else
.
For thus says
the LORD ,
who
created the heavens —He
is
God ;
He
formed the earth and fashioned
it; He established it ;
He did
not create
it
to
be
empty
, but
formed it to be inhabited: “
I am the LORD ,
and there is no
other
.
I have not spoken in secret, in
a dark
place of the
earth:
I said
not unto
the seed
of Jacob, Seek ye
me in vain:
I the LORD speak
righteousness
, I declare
things
that
are
right.
I have not spoken in secret, from
a place in
a
land
of darkness.
I did
not say
to
the descendants
of Jacob, ‘
Seek Me in a
wasteland.’
I ,
the LORD, speak
the
truth;
I say
what
is
right.
Assemble
yourselves
and
come ;
draw near together
, ye
that
are
escaped
of
the nations :
they
have
no
knowledge
that
set
up
the
wood
of their
graven
image,
and pray unto
a god that cannot save.
Come ,
gather
together,
and
draw near, you
fugitives
from
the nations .
Ignorant
are
those
who
carry
idols
of wood
and pray to
a god that cannot save.
Tell
ye,
and bring
them
near;
yea
, let them take counsel together :
who hath
declared
this from
ancient
time
? who hath
told
it from that
time
? have
not I the LORD? and
there is no God else
beside
me ;
a just
God and a
Saviour
; there is none beside
me.
Speak
up
and present
your
case—
yes
, let them take counsel together .
Who foretold
this long
ago
? Who announced
it from ancient
times
? Was
it
not I ,
the LORD? There is no other
God but
Me ,
a righteous
God and Savior
; there is none but
Me.
Look
unto
me ,
and be ye
saved, all the ends of the earth :
for I am God, and there is none
else
.
Turn
to
Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth ;
for I am God, and there is no
other
.
I have sworn by
myself,
the
word
is
gone out of
my mouth in
righteousness
, and
shall
not
return,
That unto
me
every knee shall
bow, every tongue shall
swear.
By
Myself
I have sworn ;
truth
has
gone out from
My mouth, a
word
that will
not
be
revoked:
Every knee will
bow before
Me
, every tongue will
swear allegiance
.
Surely ,
shall
one
say, in the LORD have
I
righteousness and strength :
even
to
him
shall
men
come;
and
all that
are
incensed
against him shall
be ashamed
.
Surely they
will
say of
Me
, ‘
In the LORD alone
are
righteousness and strength .’”
All who
rage
against Him will
come
to
Him
and
be put
to
shame
.
In the LORD shall
all the
seed
of Israel be justified ,
and shall
glory
.
In the LORD all descendants
of Israel will
be justified and will
exult
.
