1 But now thus saith the LORD that cre­at­ed thee, O Ja­cob, and he that formed thee, O Is­rael, Fear not: for I have re­deemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 2 When thou pass­est through the wa­ters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not over­flow thee: when thou walk­est through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; nei­ther shall the flame kin­dle upon thee. 3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Is­rael, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ran­som, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 4 Since thou wast pre­cious in my sight, thou hast been hon­ourable, and I have loved thee: there­fore will I give men for thee, and peo­ple for thy life. 5 Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gath­er thee from the west; 6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daugh­ters from the ends of the earth; 7 Even ev­ery one that is called by my name: for I have cre­at­ed him for my glo­ry, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. 8 Bring forth the blind peo­ple that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 9 Let all the na­tions be gath­ered to­geth­er, and let the peo­ple be as­sem­bled: who among them can de­clare this, and shew us for­mer things? let them bring forth their wit­ness­es, that they may be jus­ti­fied: or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 10 Ye are my wit­ness­es, saith the LORD, and my ser­vant whom I have cho­sen: that ye may know and be­lieve me, and un­der­stand that I am he: be­fore me there was no God formed, nei­ther shall there be af­ter me. 11 I, even I, am the LORD; and be­side me there is no saviour. 12 I have de­clared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: there­fore ye are my wit­ness­es, saith the LORD, that I am God. 13 Yea, be­fore the day was I am he; and there is none that can de­liv­er out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it? 14 Thus saith the LORD, your re­deemer, the Holy One of Is­rael; For your sake I have sent to Baby­lon, and have brought down all their no­bles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships. 15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the cre­ator of Is­rael, your King. 16 Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty wa­ters; 17 Which bringeth forth the char­i­ot and horse, the army and the pow­er; they shall lie down to­geth­er, they shall not rise: they are ex­tinct, they are quenched as tow. 18 Re­mem­ber ye not the for­mer things, nei­ther con­sid­er the things of old. 19 Be­hold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilder­ness, and rivers in the desert. 20 The beast of the field shall hon­our me, the drag­ons and the owls: be­cause I give wa­ters in the wilder­ness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my peo­ple, my cho­sen. 21 This peo­ple have I formed for my­self; they shall shew forth my praise. 22 But thou hast not called upon me, O Ja­cob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Is­rael. 23 Thou hast not brought me the small cat­tle of thy burnt of­fer­ings; nei­ther hast thou hon­oured me with thy sac­ri­fices. I have not caused thee to serve with an of­fer­ing, nor wea­ried thee with in­cense. 24 Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with mon­ey, nei­ther hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sac­ri­fices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wea­ried me with thine in­iq­ui­ties. 25 I, even I, am he that blot­teth out thy trans­gres­sions for mine own sake, and will not re­mem­ber thy sins. 26 Put me in re­mem­brance: let us plead to­geth­er: de­clare thou, that thou mayest be jus­ti­fied. 27 Thy first fa­ther hath sinned, and thy teach­ers have trans­gressed against me. 28 There­fore I have pro­faned the princes of the sanc­tu­ary, and have giv­en Ja­cob to the curse, and Is­rael to re­proach­es.
