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:
Thus
saith
Jehovah
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 the doors before him, and
the gates shall
not be shut:
“
I will go before you
and level
the mountains
; I will break down
the gates
of bronze
and cut through
the bars of iron .
I will go before thee,
and make
the rough
places
smooth
; I will break in
pieces
the doors
of brass,
and cut in
sunder
the bars of iron ;
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.
and
I will give thee
the treasures of darkness ,
and hidden riches
of
secret places, that thou
mayest
know that it
is
I, Jehovah
, who call
thee
by thy
name ,
even
the
God
of
Israel
.
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.
For Jacob my servant's
sake,
and Israel my chosen, I have
called
thee
by thy
name :
I have surnamed
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 ,
I am Jehovah
, and there is none
else
; besides
me
there is no God. I will gird
thee
, though thou
hast
not known me ;
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
.
that they
may know from the rising
of
the
sun, and
from
the
west,
that there is none besides
me :
I am Jehovah
, and there is none
else
.
I form the light and create the
darkness; I bring
prosperity
and create calamity
. I ,
the
LORD
, do
all these things.
I form the light ,
and create darkness; I make
peace,
and create evil
. I am
Jehovah
, that
doeth
all these things.
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.
Distil
, ye
heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness :
let the earth open ,
that it
may bring
forth
salvation,
and let
it
cause
righteousness to
spring up together
; I, Jehovah
, have created it.
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
striveth
with his Maker !
a
potsherd
among 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
says
to
his
father, ‘
What have
you
begotten
? ’
or to his
mother
, ‘
What have
you
brought
forth
? ’”
Woe unto
him that
saith
unto
a
father, What begettest
thou
? or to a
woman
, With
what travailest
thou
?
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 ?
Thus saith
Jehovah
, the Holy One of Israel, and his
Maker: Ask
me of
the
things
that
are
to
come;
concerning
my sons, and
concerning
the work of my hands ,
command
ye
me.
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
made the earth ,
and created man upon it :
I,
even
my hands ,
have
stretched out the heavens ;
and all their host have
I
commanded
.
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. ”
I have
raised
him
up in righteousness, and I will make straight
all his ways :
he shall
build
my city ,
and he
shall
let
my exiles go
free, not for price
nor
reward, saith
Jehovah
of hosts.
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. ’”
Thus
saith
Jehovah,
The labor
of Egypt ,
and the merchandise of Ethiopia
, and
the Sabeans, men of stature, shall
come over unto
thee,
and they
shall
be thine:
they shall
go
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.
Truly
You
are
a God who
hides
Himself
, O God of Israel, the Savior
.
Verily
thou
art
a God that
hidest
thyself
, O God of Israel, the Saviour
.
They will
all
be put to shame and
humiliated
; the
makers of idols will
depart
together
in
disgrace
.
They shall
be put to shame ,
yea,
confounded,
all
of
them
; they
shall
go
into
confusion
together
that
are
makers of idols.
But Israel will
be saved by the
LORD
with an everlasting salvation ;
you
will
not be put to shame or
humiliated,
to
ages
everlasting
.
`
But '
Israel shall
be saved by Jehovah
with an everlasting salvation :
ye
shall
not be put to shame nor
confounded
world
without
end
.
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
.
For thus saith
Jehovah
that
created the heavens ,
the
God that
formed the earth and made
it ,
that
established it and
created
it not
a
waste
, that
formed it to be inhabited: I am Jehovah;
and there is none
else
.
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.
I have not spoken in secret, in a place
of
the
land of darkness ;
I said
not unto
the seed
of Jacob, Seek ye
me in vain:
I, Jehovah
, speak righteousness,
I declare
things
that
are
right.
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.
Assemble
yourselves
and come;
draw near together
, ye
that
are
escaped
of
the nations :
they
have
no
knowledge
that
carry the
wood of
their
graven
image,
and pray unto
a god that cannot save.
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.
Declare
ye,
and bring
`it'
forth;
yea
, let them take counsel together :
who hath
showed
this from ancient time
? who
hath
declared
it of
old?
have
not I, Jehovah
? and
there is no God else
besides
me, a just
God and a
Saviour
; there is none besides
me.
Turn
to
Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no
other
.
Look
unto
me ,
and be ye
saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none
else
.
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
.
By myself have I
sworn ,
the
word
is
gone forth
from my mouth `in'
righteousness
, and
shall
not return,
that
unto
me
every knee shall
bow, every tongue shall
swear.
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.
Only
in
Jehovah,
it
is
said
of me, is
righteousness and strength ;
even
to him shall
men
come;
and all
they
that
were
incensed
against
him
shall
be put to shame.
In the
LORD
all descendants
of Israel will
be justified and will
exult
.
In Jehovah
shall
all the
seed
of Israel be justified ,
and shall
glory
.
