YLT
Young's Literal Translation
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
said
Jehovah,
To His anointed, to
Cyrus,
Whose right hand I have laid
hold
on,
To subdue nations before him, Yea,
loins
of
kings I
loose
, To open before him two-leaved
doors
, Yea,
gates are
not 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 go before thee,
and crooked
places
make
straight,
Two-leaved
doors
of brass
I
shiver,
And bars of iron I
cut
asunder,
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
have
given
to
thee
treasures of darkness ,
Even
treasures
of
secret places, So that thou
knowest
that I, Jehovah,
Who
am
calling
on
thy
name
--
`am'
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 the sake of my servant Jacob,
And of
Israel My chosen, I call also
thee
by thy
name ,
I surname
thee
, And
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,
Except
Me
there is no God ,
I gird
thee
, and
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.
So that they
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.
Forming
light ,
and preparing
darkness ,
Making
peace,
and preparing
evil
, I
`am'
Jehovah
, doing
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.
Drop
, ye
heavens, from above, And clouds
do
cause
righteousness to
flow,
Earth openeth,
and
they
are
fruitful,
Salvation and righteousness spring up together,
I, Jehovah
, have prepared
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 ’
?
Wo
`
to '
him who is
striving
with his Former,
(A
potsherd
with
potsherds
of
the ground!)
Doth
clay say
to
its
Framer
, `
What dost
thou
? '
And
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? ’”
Wo
`
to '
him who is
saying
to a
father, `
What dost
thou
beget
? '
Or to a
wife
, `
What dost
thou
bring
forth?
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 said
Jehovah
, The Holy One of Israel, and his
Former
: Ask
Me of
the
things
coming
concerning
My sons, Yea,
concerning
the work of My hands ,
ye
command
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 made earth ,
and man on
it prepared,
I
--
My hands stretched out the heavens, And all their host I
have
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
stirred
him
up in righteousness, And all his ways I
make
straight ,
He doth
build
My city ,
and My captivity
doth
send
out
, Not for price
, nor
for
bribe,
said
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
said
Jehovah,
`
The labour
of Egypt ,
And the merchandise of Cush, And
of
the Sebaim
--
men of measure
, Unto
thee
pass
over ,
and thine
they are,
After
thee
they go,
in fetters
they
pass
over,
And unto
thee
they
bow themselves,
Unto
thee
they pray
: Only
in
thee
`
is '
God
, And there is none
else,
no `
other '
God.
Truly
You
are
a God who
hides
Himself
, O
God of Israel ,
the
Savior.
Surely
Thou
`art'
a God hiding
Thyself
, God of Israel --
Saviour!
They will
all
be
put
to
shame
and humiliated;
the
makers
of idols
will
depart
together in disgrace
.
They have
been
ashamed,
And they
have
even
blushed
--
all
of them,
Together gone
in confusion
have
those
carving
images
.
But
Israel will
be
saved by
the
LORD
with
an
everlasting
salvation ;
you
will
not be
put
to
shame
or
humiliated,
to
ages everlasting.
Israel hath
been
saved in
Jehovah,
A
salvation age-during!
Ye
are
not ashamed
nor
confounded
Unto
the
ages of
eternity!
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 said
Jehovah
, Creator
of
heaven,
He is God ,
Former
of
earth ,
and its
Maker,
He established it --
not empty He
prepared
it
, For
inhabiting
He
formed it: `
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
.
Not in secret have
I
spoken
, in a dark
place
of the
earth,
I have
not said
to the seed
of Jacob, In
vain
seek ye
Me ,
I `am'
Jehovah
, speaking
righteousness
, Declaring
uprightness
.
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
.
Be
gathered,
and
come in
, Come
nigh
together, ye
escaped
of
the nations ,
They
have
not
known,
Who are
lifting
up
the
wood of
their
graven
image,
And praying
unto
a god `
that '
saveth
not
.
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
near
, Yea,
they
take counsel together ,
Who hath
proclaimed
this from
of
old
? From that
time
hath
declared
it
? Is
it not I --
Jehovah
? And
there is no other god besides
Me, A God righteous
and saving,
there is none save
Me.
Turn to Me and be saved, all the
ends of the earth ;
for I am God, and there is no
other
.
Turn to Me ,
and be saved, all 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 I have sworn ,
Gone out from my mouth in
righteousness
hath
a word ,
And
it
turneth
not back,
That
to
Me,
bow
doth
every knee, every tongue 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,
said
hath
one,
Have
I
righteousness and strength ,
Unto
Him he
cometh
in,
And ashamed
are
all
those
displeased
with
Him
.
In the
LORD
all descendants
of Israel will
be
justified and will
exult
.
In Jehovah
are
all the
seed
of Israel justified ,
And they
boast
themselves
. '
