1 Yet now H6258 hear, H8085 O Jacob H3290 my servant; H5650 and Israel, H3478 whom I have chosen: H977
2 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 that made H6213 thee , and formed H3335 thee from the womb H4480 H990 , which will help H5826 thee; Fear H3372 not, H408 O Jacob, H3290 my servant; H5650 and thou, Jesurun, H3484 whom I have chosen. H977
3 For H3588 I will pour H3332 water H4325 upon H5921 him that is thirsty, H6771 and floods H5140 upon H5921 the dry ground: H3004 I will pour H3332 my spirit H7307 upon H5921 thy seed, H2233 and my blessing H1293 upon H5921 thine offspring: H6631
4 And they shall spring up H6779 as among H996 the grass, H2682 as willows H6155 by H5921 the water H4325 courses. H2988
5 One H2088 shall say, H559 I H589 am the LORD's H3068 ; and another H2088 shall call H7121 himself by the name H8034 of Jacob; H3290 and another H2088 shall subscribe H3789 with his hand H3027 unto the LORD, H3068 and surname H3655 himself by the name H8034 of Israel. H3478
6 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 the King H4428 of Israel, H3478 and his redeemer H1350 the LORD H3068 of hosts; H6635 I H589 am the first, H7223 and I H589 am the last; H314 and beside H4480 H1107 me there is no H369 God. H430
7 And who, H4310 as I , shall call, H7121 and shall declare H5046 it , and set it in order H6186 for me , since I appointed H4480 H7760 the ancient H5769 people H5971 ? and the things that are coming, H857 and shall come, H935 let them show H5046 unto them.
8 Fear H6342 ye not, H408 neither H408 be afraid: H7297 have not H3808 I told H8085 thee from that time H4480 H227 , and have declared H5046 it ? ye H859 are even my witnesses. H5707 Is there H3426 a God H433 beside H4480 H1107 me? yea, there is no H369 God; H6697 I know H3045 not H1077 any .
9 They that make H3335 a graven image H6459 are all H3605 of them vanity; H8414 and their delectable things H2530 shall not H1077 profit; H3276 and they H1992 are their own witnesses; H5707 they see H7200 not, H1077 nor H1077 know; H3045 that H4616 they may be ashamed. H954
10 Who H4310 hath formed H3335 a god, H410 or molten H5258 a graven image H6459 that is profitable H3276 for nothing H1115 ?
11 Behold H2005 , all H3605 his fellows H2270 shall be ashamed: H954 and the workmen, H2796 they H1992 are of men H4480 H120 : let them all H3605 be gathered together, H6908 let them stand up; H5975 yet they shall fear, H6342 and they shall be ashamed H954 together. H3162
12 The blacksmith H2796 H1270 with the tongs H4621 both worketh H6466 in the coals, H6352 and fashioneth H3335 it with hammers, H4717 and worketh H6466 it with the strength H3581 of his arms: H2220 yea, H1571 he is hungry, H7456 and his strength H3581 faileth: H369 he drinketh H8354 no H3808 water, H4325 and is faint. H3286
13 The carpenter H2796 H6086 stretcheth out H5186 his rule; H6957 he marketh it out H8388 with a line; H8279 he fitteth H6213 it with planes, H4741 and he marketh it out H8388 with the compass, H4230 and maketh H6213 it after the figure H8403 of a man, H376 according to the beauty H8597 of a man; H120 that it may remain H3427 in the house. H1004
14 He heweth him down H3772 cedars, H730 and taketh H3947 the cypress H8645 and the oak, H437 which he strengtheneth H553 for himself among the trees H6086 of the forest: H3293 he planteth H5193 an ash, H766 and the rain H1653 doth nourish H1431 it .
15 Then shall it be H1961 for a man H120 to burn: H1197 for he will take H3947 thereof, H4480 and warm H2552 himself; yea, H637 he kindleth H5400 it , and baketh H644 bread; H3899 yea, H637 he maketh H6466 a god, H410 and worshipeth H7812 it ; he maketh H6213 it a graven image, H6459 and falleth down H5456 thereto.
16 He burneth H8313 part H2677 thereof in H1119 the fire; H784 with H5921 part H2677 thereof he eateth H398 flesh; H1320 he roasteth H6740 roast, H6748 and is satisfied: H7646 yea, H637 he warmeth H2552 himself , and saith, H559 Aha, H1889 I am warm, H2552 I have seen H7200 the fire: H217
17 And the residue H7611 thereof he maketh H6213 a god, H410 even his graven image: H6459 he falleth down H5456 unto it , and worshipeth H7812 it , and prayeth H6419 unto H413 it , and saith, H559 Deliver H5337 me; for H3588 thou H859 art my god. H410
18 They have not H3808 known H3045 nor H3808 understood: H995 for H3588 he hath shut H2902 their eyes, H5869 that they cannot see H4480 H7200 ; and their hearts, H3820 that they cannot understand H4480 H7919 .
19 And none H3808 considereth H7725 in H413 his heart, H3820 neither H3808 is there knowledge H1847 nor H3808 understanding H8394 to say, H559 I have burned H8313 part H2677 of it in H1119 the fire; H784 yea, H637 also I have baked H644 bread H3899 upon H5921 the coals H1513 thereof ; I have roasted H6740 flesh, H1320 and eaten H398 it : and shall I make H6213 the residue H3499 thereof an abomination H8441 ? shall I fall down H5456 to the stock H944 of a tree H6086 ?
20 He feedeth H7462 on ashes: H665 a deceived H2048 heart H3820 hath turned him aside, H5186 that he cannot H3808 deliver H5337 H853 his soul, H5315 nor H3808 say, H559 Is there not H3808 a lie H8267 in my right hand H3225 ?
21 Remember H2142 these, H428 O Jacob H3290 and Israel; H3478 for H3588 thou H859 art my servant: H5650 I have formed H3335 thee; thou H859 art my servant: H5650 O Israel, H3478 thou shalt not H3808 be forgotten H5382 of me.
22 I have blotted out, H4229 as a thick cloud, H5645 thy transgressions, H6588 and , as a cloud, H6051 thy sins: H2403 return H7725 unto H413 me; for H3588 I have redeemed H1350 thee.
23 Sing H7442 , O ye heavens; H8064 for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath done H6213 it : shout, H7321 ye lower parts H8482 of the earth: H776 break forth H6476 into singing, H7440 ye mountains, H2022 O forest, H3293 and every H3605 tree H6086 therein: for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath redeemed H1350 Jacob, H3290 and glorified himself H6286 in Israel. H3478
24 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 thy redeemer, H1350 and he that formed H3335 thee from the womb H4480 H990 , I H595 am the LORD H3068 that maketh H6213 all H3605 things ; that stretcheth forth H5186 the heavens H8064 alone; H905 that spreadeth abroad H7554 the earth H776 by H854 myself;
25 That frustrateth H6565 the tokens H226 of the liars, H907 and maketh diviners mad H1984 H7080 ; that turneth H7725 wise H2450 men backward, H268 and maketh their knowledge foolish H5528 H1847 ;
26 That confirmeth H6965 the word H1697 of his servant, H5650 and performeth H7999 the counsel H6098 of his messengers; H4397 that saith H559 to Jerusalem, H3389 Thou shalt be inhabited; H3427 and to the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 Ye shall be built, H1129 and I will raise up H6965 the decayed places H2723 thereof:
27 That saith H559 to the deep, H6683 Be dry, H2717 and I will dry up H3001 thy rivers: H5104
28 That saith H559 of Cyrus, H3566 He is my shepherd, H7462 and shall perform H7999 all H3605 my pleasure: H2656 even saying H559 to Jerusalem, H3389 Thou shalt be built; H1129 and to the temple, H1964 Thy foundation shall be laid. H3245
