But now thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 that createdH1254 thee, O JacobH3290, and he that formedH3335 thee, O IsraelH3478, FearH3372 not: for I have redeemedH1350 thee, I have calledH7121 thee by thy nameH8034; thou art mine.
When thou passest throughH5674 the watersH4325, I will be with thee; and through the riversH5104, they shall not overflowH7857 thee: when thou walkestH3212 throughH1119 the fireH784, thou shalt not be burnedH3554; neither shall the flameH3852 kindleH1197 upon thee.
For I am the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, thy SaviourH3467: I gaveH5414 EgyptH4714 for thy ransomH3724, EthiopiaH3568 and SebaH5434 for thee.
Since thou wast preciousH3365 in my sightH5869, thou hast been honourableH3513, and I have lovedH157 thee: therefore will I giveH5414 menH120 for thee, and peopleH3816 for thy lifeH5315. {life: or, person}
FearH3372 not: for I am with thee: I will bringH935 thy seedH2233 from the eastH4217, and gatherH6908 thee from the westH4628;
I will sayH559 to the northH6828, Give upH5414; and to the southH8486, Keep not backH3607: bringH935 my sonsH1121 from farH7350, and my daughtersH1323 from the endsH7097 of the earthH776;
Even every oneH3605 that is calledH7121 by my nameH8034: for I have createdH1254 him for my gloryH3519, I have formedH3335 him; yea, I have madeH6213 him.
Bring forthH3318 the blindH5787 peopleH5971 that haveH3426 eyesH5869, and the deafH2795 that have earsH241.
Let all the nationsH1471 be gatheredH6908 togetherH3162, and let the peopleH3816 be assembledH622: who among them can declareH5046 this, and shewH8085 us former thingsH7223? let them bring forthH5414 their witnessesH5707, that they may be justifiedH6663: or let them hearH8085, and sayH559, It is truthH571.
Ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and my servantH5650 whom I have chosenH977: that ye may knowH3045 and believeH539 me, and understandH995 that I am he: beforeH6440 me there was no GodH410 formedH3335, neither shall there be afterH310 me. {no…: or, nothing formed of God}
I, even I, am the LORDH3068; and besideH1107 me there is no saviourH3467.
I have declaredH5046, and have savedH3467, and I have shewedH8085, when there was no strangeH2114 god among you: therefore ye are my witnessesH5707, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I am GodH410.
Yea, before the dayH3117 was I am he; and there is none that can deliverH5337 out of my handH3027: I will workH6466, and who shall letH7725 it? {let it: Heb. turn it back?}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, your redeemerH1350, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478; For your sake I have sentH7971 to BabylonH894, and have brought downH3381 all their noblesH1281, and the ChaldeansH3778, whose cryH7440 is in the shipsH591. {nobles: Heb. bars}
I am the LORDH3068, your Holy OneH6918, the creatorH1254 of IsraelH3478, your KingH4428.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, which makethH5414 a wayH1870 in the seaH3220, and a pathH5410 in the mightyH5794 watersH4325;
Which bringeth forthH3318 the chariotH7393 and horseH5483, the armyH2428 and the powerH5808; they shall lie downH7901 togetherH3162, they shall not riseH6965: they are extinctH1846, they are quenchedH3518 as towH6594.
RememberH2142 ye not the former thingsH7223, neither considerH995 the things of oldH6931.
Behold, I will doH6213 a new thingH2319; now it shall spring forthH6779; shall ye not knowH3045 it? I will even makeH7760 a wayH1870 in the wildernessH4057, and riversH5104 in the desertH3452.
The beastH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall honourH3513 me, the dragonsH8577 and the owlsH1323+H3284: because I giveH5414 watersH4325 in the wildernessH4057, and riversH5104 in the desertH3452, to give drinkH8248 to my peopleH5971, my chosenH972. {owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
ThisH2098 peopleH5971 have I formedH3335 for myself; they shall shew forthH5608 my praiseH8416.
But thou hast not calledH7121 upon me, O JacobH3290; but thou hast been wearyH3021 of me, O IsraelH3478.
Thou hast not broughtH935 me the small cattleH7716 of thy burnt offeringsH5930; neither hast thou honouredH3513 me with thy sacrificesH2077. I have not caused thee to serveH5647 with an offeringH4503, nor weariedH3021 thee with incenseH3828. {small…: Heb. lambs, or, kids}
Thou hast boughtH7069 me no sweet caneH7070 with moneyH3701, neither hast thou filledH7301 me with the fatH2459 of thy sacrificesH2077: but thou hast made me to serveH5647 with thy sinsH2403, thou hast weariedH3021 me with thine iniquitiesH5771. {filled…: Heb. made me drunk, or, abundantly moistened}
I, even I, am he that blotteth outH4229 thy transgressionsH6588 for mine own sake, and will not rememberH2142 thy sinsH2403.
Put me in remembranceH2142: let us pleadH8199 togetherH3162: declareH5608 thou, that thou mayest be justifiedH6663.
Thy firstH7223 fatherH1 hath sinnedH2398, and thy teachersH3887 have transgressedH6586 against me. {teachers: Heb. interpreters}
Therefore I have profanedH2490 the princesH8269 of the sanctuaryH6944, and have givenH5414 JacobH3290 to the curseH2764, and IsraelH3478 to reproachesH1421. {princes…: or, holy princes}

AssembleH6908 yourselves and comeH935; draw nearH5066 togetherH3162, ye that are escapedH6412 of the nationsH1471: they have no knowledgeH3045 that set upH5375 the woodH6086 of their graven imageH6459, and prayH6419 unto a godH410 that cannot saveH3467.
ProduceH7126 your causeH7379, saithH559 the LORDH3068; bring forthH5066 your strongH6110 reasons, saithH559 the KingH4428 of JacobH3290. {Produce: Heb. Cause to come near}
Let them bring them forthH5066, and shewH5046 us what shall happenH7136: let them shewH5046 the former thingsH7223, what they be, that we may considerH7760+H3820 them, and knowH3045 the latter endH319 of them; or declareH8085 us things for to comeH935. {consider…: Heb. set our heart upon them}
ShewH5046 the things that are to comeH857 hereafterH268, that we may knowH3045 that ye are godsH430: yea, do goodH3190, or do evilH7489, that we may be dismayedH8159, and beholdH7200 it togetherH3162.
Behold, ye are of nothingH369, and your workH6467 of noughtH659: an abominationH8441 is he that choosethH977 you. {of nothing: or, worse than nothing} {of nought: or, worse than of a viper}
I have raised upH5782 one from the northH6828, and he shall comeH857: from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121 shall he callH7121 upon my nameH8034: and he shall comeH935 upon princesH5461 as upon morterH2563, and as the potterH3335 treadethH7429 clayH2916.
Who hath declaredH5046 from the beginningH7218, that we may knowH3045? and beforetimeH6440, that we may sayH559, He is righteousH6662? yea, there is none that shewethH5046, yea, there is none that declarethH8085, yea, there is none that hearethH8085 your wordsH561.
Put me in remembranceH2142: let us pleadH8199 togetherH3162: declareH5608 thou, that thou mayest be justifiedH6663.
TellH5046 ye, and bring them nearH5066; yea, let them take counselH3289 togetherH3162: who hath declaredH8085 this from ancient timeH6924? who hath toldH5046 it from that time? have not I the LORDH3068? and there is no GodH430 else besideH1107 me; a justH6662 GodH410 and a SaviourH3467; there is noneH369 besideH2108 me.
And who, as I, shall callH7121, and shall declareH5046 it, and set it in orderH6186 for me, since I appointedH7760 the ancientH5769 peopleH5971? and the things that are comingH857, and shall comeH935, let them shewH5046 unto them.
FearH6342 ye not, neither be afraidH7297+H7297: have not I toldH8085 thee from that timeH227, and have declaredH5046 it? ye are even my witnessesH5707. Is thereH3426 a GodH433 besideH1107 me? yea, there is no GodH6697; I knowH3045 not any. {God; I: Heb. rock, etc}
They that makeH3335 a graven imageH6459 are all of them vanityH8414; and their delectable thingsH2530 shall not profitH3276; and they are their own witnessesH5707; they seeH7200 not, nor knowH3045; that they may be ashamedH954. {delectable: Heb. desirable}
And if it seem evilH7489 unto youH4310 to serveH5647 the LORDH3068, chooseH977 you this dayH3117 whomH5869 ye will serveH5647; whether the godsH430 which your fathersH1 servedH5647 that were on the other sideH5676 of the floodH5104, or the godsH430 of the AmoritesH567, in whose landH776 ye dwellH3427: but as for me and my houseH1004, we will serveH5647 the LORDH3068.
And the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 and saidH559, God forbidH2486 that we should forsakeH5800 the LORDH3068, to serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430;
For the LORDH3068 our GodH430, he it is that brought us upH5927 and our fathersH1 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from the houseH1004 of bondageH5650, and which didH6213 those greatH1419 signsH226 in our sightH5869, and preservedH8104 us in all the wayH1870 wherein we wentH1980, and among all the peopleH5971 throughH7130 whom we passedH5674:
And the LORDH3068 drave outH1644 from beforeH6440 us all the peopleH5971, even the AmoritesH567 which dweltH3427 in the landH776: therefore will we also serveH5647 the LORDH3068; for he is our GodH430.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, Ye cannotH3201 serveH5647 the LORDH3068: for he is an holyH6918 GodH430; he is a jealousH7072 GodH410; he will not forgiveH5375 your transgressionsH6588 nor your sinsH2403.
If ye forsakeH5800 the LORDH3068, and serveH5647 strangeH5236 godsH430, then he will turnH7725 and do you hurtH7489, and consumeH3615 you, afterH310 that he hath done you goodH3190.
And the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, Nay; but we will serveH5647 the LORDH3068.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, Ye are witnessesH5707 against yourselves that ye have chosenH977 you the LORDH3068, to serveH5647 him. And they saidH559, We are witnessesH5707.
Now therefore put awayH5493, said he, the strangeH5236 godsH430 which are amongH7130 you, and inclineH5186 your heartH3824 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, The LORDH3068 our GodH430 will we serveH5647, and his voiceH6963 will we obeyH8085.
All ye, assembleH6908 yourselves, and hearH8085; which among them hath declaredH5046 these things? The LORDH3068 hath lovedH157 him: he will doH6213 his pleasureH2656 on BabylonH894, and his armH2220 shall be on the ChaldeansH3778.
DeclaringH5046 the endH319 from the beginningH7225, and from ancient timesH6924 the things that are not yet doneH6213, sayingH559, My counselH6098 shall standH6965, and I will doH6213 all my pleasureH2656:
And ElijahH452 cameH5066 unto all the peopleH5971, and saidH559, How longH5921 haltH6452 ye between twoH8147 opinionsH5587? if the LORDH3068 be GodH430, follow him: but if BaalH1168, then followH3212+H310 him. And the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 him not a wordH1697. {opinions: or, thoughts}
Then saidH559 ElijahH452 unto the peopleH5971, I, even I only, remainH3498 a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068; but Baal'sH1168 prophetsH5030 are fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376.
Let them therefore giveH5414 us twoH8147 bullocksH6499; and let them chooseH977 oneH259 bullockH6499 for themselves, and cut it in piecesH5408, and layH7760 it on woodH6086, and putH7760 no fireH784 under: and I will dressH6213 the otherH259 bullockH6499, and layH5414 it on woodH6086, and putH7760 no fireH784 under:
And callH7121 ye on the nameH8034 of your godsH430, and I will callH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068: and the GodH430 that answerethH6030 by fireH784, let him be GodH430. And all the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 and saidH559, It is wellH2896 spokenH1697. {It is…: Heb. The word is good}
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 for the sonsH1121 of KorahH7141. HearH8085 this, all ye peopleH5971; give earH238, all ye inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH2465: {for: or, of}
I have even from the beginningH227 declaredH5046 it to thee; before it came to passH935 I shewedH8085 it thee: lest thou shouldest sayH559, Mine idolH6090 hath doneH6213 them, and my graven imageH6459, and my molten imageH5262, hath commandedH6680 them.
And it came to pass at the time of the offeringH5927 of the evening sacrificeH4503, that ElijahH452 the prophetH5030 came nearH5066, and saidH559, LORDH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and of IsraelH3478, let it be knownH3045 this dayH3117 that thou art GodH430 in IsraelH3478, and that I am thy servantH5650, and that I have doneH6213 all these things at thy wordH1697.
HearH6030 me, O LORDH3068, hearH6030 me, that this peopleH5971 may knowH3045 that thou art the LORDH3068 GodH430, and that thou hast turnedH5437 their heartH3820 backH5437 againH322.
Then the fireH784 of the LORDH3068 fellH5307, and consumedH398 the burnt sacrificeH5930, and the woodH6086, and the stonesH68, and the dustH6083, and licked upH3897 the waterH4325 that was in the trenchH8585.
And when all the peopleH5971 sawH7200 it, they fellH5307 on their facesH6440: and they saidH559, The LORDH3068, he is the GodH430; the LORDH3068, he is the GodH430.
Thou hast heardH8085, seeH2372 all this; and will not ye declareH5046 it? I have shewedH8085 thee new thingsH2319 from this timeH6258, even hidden thingsH5341, and thou didst not knowH3045 them.
