look unto the rock whence
ye are
hewn, and to
the hole of the pit whence
ye are
digged.

Me, ye pursuing
righteousness, Seeking
Jehovah,
Look attentively
unto the rock --

been
hewn, And unto

Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that
bare
you :
for I called him alone
, and blessed
him, and increased
him.

unto Abraham your father, And unto Sarah --
she
bringeth
you forth,
For --
one
--
I have

For the
LORD
shall
comfort
Zion :
he will
comfort
all her waste
places;
and he will
make
her wilderness like

gladness shall
be
found therein
, thanksgiving

Hearken
unto me, my people ;
and give
ear
unto
me
, O my nation :
for a law shall
proceed
from me, and I
will
make
my judgment to rest
for
a
light
of
the people
.
Attend
unto Me, O
My people ,
And, O My nation ,
unto
Me
give
ear.
For a law from Me goeth
out
, And My judgment to the light,
Peoples
I
do
cause
to
rest
.

near;
my salvation is
gone
forth,
and mine arms shall
judge the
people;
the
isles shall
wait upon
me
, and
on mine arm shall
they trust
.
Near
`is'
My righteousness ,
Gone
out
hath
My salvation and Mine arms ,

Lift up your
eyes
to the heavens, and look upon
the earth beneath :
for the heavens shall
vanish
away
like
smoke, and the earth shall
wax
old
like
a garment, and they
that
dwell
therein
shall
die in
like
manner:
but
my salvation shall
be
for
ever
, and my righteousness shall
not be
abolished
.
Lift ye
up to the heavens your
eyes
, And look attentively
unto
the earth beneath ,
For the heavens as
smoke have
vanished
, And the earth as
a garment weareth
out
, And its
inhabitants
as
gnats
do
die ,
And
My salvation is
to
the
age
, And My righteousness is
not broken
.
Hearken unto me, ye that
know righteousness, the
people in whose heart is my law ;
fear ye not the reproach of men, neither
be
ye
afraid
of
their revilings.
Hearken unto Me, ye who
know righteousness, A
people ,
in whose heart `
is '
My law ,
Fear ye not the reproach of men, And
for
their reviling
be
not
affrighted,
For the
moth
shall
eat them up
like
a garment
, and the
worm
shall
eat them like
wool:
but
my righteousness shall
be
for
ever
, and my salvation from
generation
to generation
.
For as
a
garment
eat them doth
a moth
, And as
wool
eat them doth
a
worm,
And
My righteousness is
to
the
age
, And My salvation to all
generations
.
Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the
LORD;
awake, as in the
ancient
days, in
the
generations of old.
Art thou
not it that hath
cut
Rahab, and
wounded
the
dragon ?
Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of Jehovah,
Awake, as `
in '
days of
old
, generations of the
ages,
Art not Thou
it that is
hewing
down
Rahab, Piercing
a
dragon !
Art thou
not it which
hath
dried
the
sea, the
waters of the
great deep ;
that hath made the
depths
of the
sea a way for the ransomed
to
pass
over
?
Art not Thou
it that
is
drying
up
a
sea, Waters of a
great deep ?
That hath made deep
places
of a
sea A way for the passing
of
the
redeemed
?
Therefore
the redeemed
of the
LORD
shall
return
, and come with singing unto
Zion;
and everlasting
joy shall
be
upon
their head :
they
shall
obtain
gladness and joy ;
and
sorrow and mourning
shall
flee
away.
And
the ransomed
of Jehovah
turn
back
, And they
have
come to
Zion
with singing ,
And joy age-during
`is'
on
their head ,
Gladness and joy they
attain,
Fled
away
have
sorrow and sighing,
I ,
even
I ,
am he that
comforteth
you:
who art thou ,
that
thou shouldest
be
afraid of a
man that
shall
die,
and of the son of man which
shall
be
made
as
grass ;
I --
I `
am '
He --
your
comforter,
Who `
art '
thou --
and
thou art
afraid of man ?
he
dieth!
And of the son of man --
grass he
is
made!
And forgettest
the
LORD
thy maker, that
hath
stretched
forth
the heavens, and laid
the
foundations
of
the
earth ;
and hast
feared
continually every
day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if
he were
ready
to destroy ?
and where is the fury of the oppressor?
And thou
dost
forget
Jehovah
thy maker, Who
is
stretching
out
the heavens, and founding
earth ,
And thou
dost
fear
continually all
the
day ,
Because of the fury of the oppressor, As he hath
prepared
to destroy .
And where `
is '
the fury of the oppressor?
The
captive
exile
hasteneth
that
he
may
be loosed, and that
he should
not die in
the pit, nor
that
his bread should
fail
.
Hastened
hath
a
wanderer
to
be loosed, And he doth
not die at
the pit, And
his bread is
not
lacking
.
But
I am the
LORD
thy God, that
divided
the sea, whose
waves
roared:
The
LORD
of hosts is his name.
And
I `
am '
Jehovah
thy God, Quieting
the sea, when
its
billows
roar,
Jehovah
of Hosts `
is '
His name.
And I have
put my words in thy mouth, and I
have
covered
thee
in
the shadow of mine
hand, that
I
may
plant the heavens, and lay
the
foundations
of
the
earth, and say unto
Zion, Thou
art
my people.
And I put My words in thy mouth, And with
the shadow of My
hand have
covered
thee
, To
plant the heavens, and to
found
earth, And to
say to
Zion, `
My people `art'
thou
. '
Awake
, awake
, stand
up
, O
Jerusalem, which
hast drunk at
the hand of the
LORD
the cup of his fury ;
thou
hast
drunken
the dregs
of
the cup of trembling, and
wrung them
out.
Stir
thyself
, stir
thyself
, rise
, Jerusalem, Who
hast drunk from
the hand of Jehovah
The cup of His fury ,
The goblet,
the cup of trembling, thou
hast
drunk,
Thou
hast
wrung out.
There is none
to guide
her among
all the sons whom
she hath brought
forth;
neither
is
there any
that
taketh
her by
the
hand of all the sons that
she hath brought
up
.
There is not
a
leader
to her Out
of
all the sons she hath borne,
And
there is
none
laying
hold
on
her hand Out
of all the sons she hath nourished
.
These two things
are come
unto
thee ;
who shall
be
sorry
for thee? desolation,
and destruction ,
and
the
famine ,
and the
sword :
by
whom
shall
I comfort thee?
These two are meeting
thee ,
who is
moved
for thee? Spoiling
and destruction --
Famine and sword ,
who
--
I comfort thee?
Thy sons have fainted
, they lie
at the head of all the
streets
, as a wild bull
in a net :
they are full of the fury of the
LORD
, the rebuke of thy God.
Thy sons have been
wrapt
up
, they have
lain
down,
At the head of all out
places
, as a wild ox
`
in '
a net ,
They are full of the fury of Jehovah
, The rebuke of Thy God.
Therefore hear now
this, thou
afflicted ,
and drunken, but
not with wine :
Therefore ,
hear ,
I
pray
thee,
this, O
afflicted and drunken one
, and
not with wine ,
Thus saith
thy Lord the
LORD
, and thy God that
pleadeth the
cause
of
his people ,
Behold
, I have taken out of thine
hand the cup of trembling, even
the dregs
of
the cup of my fury ;
thou shalt
no
more
drink it again:
Thus said
thy Lord Jehovah
, and thy God ,
He
pleadeth `for'
his people :
`Lo
, I have taken out of thy
hand the cup of trembling, The goblet,
the cup of My fury ,
Thou dost
not
add
to
drink it any
more.
But
I will
put it into the hand of them
that
afflict
thee ;
which
have said to thy soul, Bow down, that
we may
go
over :
and thou hast
laid
thy
body
as the ground
, and as the street ,
to them
that
went
over.
And
I have
put it into the hand of those
afflicting
thee ,
Who
have said to thy soul, Bow down, and
we pass
over ,
And thou makest
as the earth
thy
body
, And as the street to those
passing
by!'
