{Hast...: or, Hast thou not heard how I have made it long ago, and formed it of ancient times? should I now bring it to be laid waste, and defenced cities to be ruinous heaps?}

Isaiah 49:4

49:4

Then I said
<0559> (8804)_,

I have laboured
<03021> (8804)

in vain
<07385>_,

I have spent
<03615> (8765)

my strength
<03581>

for nought
<08414>_,

and in vain
<01892>_:

[yet] surely
<0403>

my judgment
<04941>

[is] with the LORD
<03068>_,

and my work
<06468>

with my God
<0430>_.

{my work: or, my reward}

Isaiah 62:8

62:8

The LORD
<03068>

hath sworn
<07650> (8738)

by his right hand
<03225>_,

and by the arm
<02220>

of his strength
<05797>_,

Surely I will
<0518>

no more give
<05414> (8799)

thy corn
<01715>

[to be] meat
<03978>

for thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_;

and the sons
<01121>

of the stranger
<05236>

shall not drink
<08354> (8799)

thy wine
<08492>_,

for the which thou hast laboured
<03021> (8804)_:

{Surely...: Heb. If I give, etc}

Isaiah 63:5

63:5

And I looked
<05027> (8686)_,

and [there was] none to help
<05826> (8802)_;

and I wondered
<08074> (8709)

that [there was] none to uphold
<05564> (8802)_:

therefore mine own arm
<02220>

brought salvation
<03467> (8686)

unto me; and my fury
<02534>_,

it upheld
<05564> (8804)

me.
