Isaiah 42:18--43:21

42:18

Hear
<08085> (8798)_,

ye deaf
<02795>_;

and look
<05027> (8685)_,

ye blind
<05787>_,

that ye may see
<07200> (8800)_.

42:19

Who [is] blind
<05787>_,

but my servant
<05650>_?

or deaf
<02795>_,

as my messenger
<04397>

[that] I sent
<07971> (8799)_?

who [is] blind
<05787>

as [he that is] perfect
<07999> (8794)_,

and blind
<05787>

as the LORD'S
<03068>

servant
<05650>_?

42:20

Seeing
<07200> (8800) (8675) <07200> (8804)

many things
<07227>_,

but thou observest
<08104> (8799)

not; opening
<06491> (8800)

the ears
<0241>_,

but he heareth
<08085> (8799)

not.

42:21

The LORD
<03068>

is well pleased
<02654> (8804)

for his righteousness
<06664>_'

sake; he will magnify
<01431> (8686)

the law
<08451>_,

and make [it] honourable
<0142> (8686)_.

{it: or, him}

42:22

But this [is] a people
<05971>

robbed
<0962> (8803)

and spoiled
<08154> (8803)_;

[they are] all of them snared
<06351> (8687)

in holes
<02352> (8676) <0970>_,

and they are hid
<02244> (8717)

in prison
<03608>

houses
<01004>_:

they are for a prey
<0957>_,

and none delivereth
<05337> (8688)_;

for a spoil
<04933>_,

and none saith
<0559> (8802)_,

Restore
<07725> (8685)_.

{they are all...: or, in snaring all the young men of them} {for a spoil: Heb. a treading}

42:23

Who among you will give ear
<0238> (8686)

to this? [who] will hearken
<07181> (8686)

and hear
<08085> (8799)

for the time to come
<0268>_?

{for...: Heb. for the after time?}

42:24

Who gave
<05414> (8804)

Jacob
<03290>

for a spoil
<04933> (8675) <04882>_,

and Israel
<03478>

to the robbers
<0962> (8802)_?

did not the LORD
<03068>_,

he against whom
<02098>

we have sinned
<02398> (8804)_?

for they would
<014> (8804)

not walk
<01980> (8800)

in his ways
<01870>_,

neither were they obedient
<08085> (8804)

unto his law
<08451>_.

42:25

Therefore he hath poured
<08210> (8799)

upon him the fury
<02534>

of his anger
<0639>_,

and the strength
<05807>

of battle
<04421>_:

and it hath set him on fire
<03857> (8762)

round about
<05439>_,

yet he knew
<03045> (8804)

not; and it burned
<01197> (8799)

him, yet he laid
<07760> (8799)

[it] not to heart
<03820>_.

43:1

But now thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

that created
<01254> (8802)

thee, O Jacob
<03290>_,

and he that formed
<03335> (8802)

thee, O Israel
<03478>_,

Fear
<03372> (8799)

not: for I have redeemed
<01350> (8804)

thee, I have called
<07121> (8804)

[thee] by thy name
<08034>_;

thou [art] mine.

43:2

When thou passest through
<05674> (8799)

the waters
<04325>_,

I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers
<05104>_,

they shall not overflow
<07857> (8799)

thee: when thou walkest
<03212> (8799)

through
<01119>

the fire
<0784>_,

thou shalt not be burned
<03554> (8735)_;

neither shall the flame
<03852>

kindle
<01197> (8799)

upon thee.

43:3

For I [am] the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_,

thy Saviour
<03467> (8688)_:

I gave
<05414> (8804)

Egypt
<04714>

[for] thy ransom
<03724>_,

Ethiopia
<03568>

and Seba
<05434>

for thee.

43:4

Since thou wast precious
<03365> (8804)

in my sight
<05869>_,

thou hast been honourable
<03513> (8738)_,

and I have loved
<0157> (8804)

thee: therefore will I give
<05414> (8799)

men
<0120>

for thee, and people
<03816>

for thy life
<05315>_.

{life: or, person}

43:5

Fear
<03372> (8799)

not: for I [am] with thee: I will bring
<0935> (8686)

thy seed
<02233>

from the east
<04217>_,

and gather
<06908> (8762)

thee from the west
<04628>_;

43:6

I will say
<0559> (8799)

to the north
<06828>_,

Give up
<05414> (8798)_;

and to the south
<08486>_,

Keep not back
<03607> (8799)_:

bring
<0935> (8685)

my sons
<01121>

from far
<07350>_,

and my daughters
<01323>

from the ends
<07097>

of the earth
<0776>_;

43:7

[Even] every one
<03605>

that is called
<07121> (8737)

by my name
<08034>_:

for I have created
<01254> (8804)

him for my glory
<03519>_,

I have formed
<03335> (8804)

him; yea, I have made
<06213> (8804)

him.

43:8

Bring forth
<03318> (8685)

the blind
<05787>

people
<05971>

that have
<03426>

eyes
<05869>_,

and the deaf
<02795>

that have ears
<0241>_.

43:9

Let all the nations
<01471>

be gathered
<06908> (8738)

together
<03162>_,

and let the people
<03816>

be assembled
<0622> (8735)_:

who among them can declare
<05046> (8686)

this, and shew
<08085> (8686)

us former things
<07223>_?

let them bring forth
<05414> (8799)

their witnesses
<05707>_,

that they may be justified
<06663> (8799)_:

or let them hear
<08085> (8799)_,

and say
<0559> (8799)_,

[It is] truth
<0571>_.

43:10

Ye [are] my witnesses
<05707>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and my servant
<05650>

whom I have chosen
<0977> (8804)_:

that ye may know
<03045> (8799)

and believe
<0539> (8686)

me, and understand
<0995> (8799)

that I [am] he: before
<06440>

me there was no God
<0410>

formed
<03335> (8738)_,

neither shall there be after
<0310>

me. {no...: or, nothing formed of God}

43:11

I, [even] I, [am] the LORD
<03068>_;

and beside
<01107>

me [there is] no saviour
<03467> (8688)_.

43:12

I have declared
<05046> (8689)_,

and have saved
<03467> (8689)_,

and I have shewed
<08085> (8689)_,

when [there was] no strange
<02114> (8801)

[god] among you: therefore ye [are] my witnesses
<05707>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that I [am] God
<0410>_.

43:13

Yea, before the day
<03117>

[was] I [am] he; and [there is] none that can deliver
<05337> (8688)

out of my hand
<03027>_:

I will work
<06466> (8799)_,

and who shall let
<07725> (8686)

it? {let it: Heb. turn it back?}

43:14

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

your redeemer
<01350> (8802)_,

the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_;

For your sake I have sent
<07971> (8765)

to Babylon
<0894>_,

and have brought down
<03381> (8689)

all their nobles
<01281>_,

and the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

whose cry
<07440>

[is] in the ships
<0591>_.

{nobles: Heb. bars}

43:15

I [am] the LORD
<03068>_,

your Holy One
<06918>_,

the creator
<01254> (8802)

of Israel
<03478>_,

your King
<04428>_.

43:16

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

which maketh
<05414> (8802)

a way
<01870>

in the sea
<03220>_,

and a path
<05410>

in the mighty
<05794>

waters
<04325>_;

43:17

Which bringeth forth
<03318> (8688)

the chariot
<07393>

and horse
<05483>_,

the army
<02428>

and the power
<05808>_;

they shall lie down
<07901> (8799)

together
<03162>_,

they shall not rise
<06965> (8799)_:

they are extinct
<01846> (8804)_,

they are quenched
<03518> (8804)

as tow
<06594>_.

43:18

Remember
<02142> (8799)

ye not the former things
<07223>_,

neither consider
<0995> (8709)

the things of old
<06931>_.

43:19

Behold, I will do
<06213> (8802)

a new thing
<02319>_;

now it shall spring forth
<06779> (8799)_;

shall ye not know
<03045> (8799)

it? I will even make
<07760> (8799)

a way
<01870>

in the wilderness
<04057>_,

[and] rivers
<05104>

in the desert
<03452>_.

43:20

The beast
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

shall honour
<03513> (8762)

me, the dragons
<08577>

and the owls
<01323> <03284>_:

because I give
<05414> (8804)

waters
<04325>

in the wilderness
<04057>_,

[and] rivers
<05104>

in the desert
<03452>_,

to give drink
<08248> (8687)

to my people
<05971>_,

my chosen
<0972>_.

{owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}

43:21

This
<02098>

people
<05971>

have I formed
<03335> (8804)

for myself; they shall shew forth
<05608> (8762)

my praise
<08416>_.
