Isaiah 42 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 "Here is my servant, the one I support. He is the one I have chosen, and I am very pleased with him. I have filled him with my Spirit, and he will bring justice to the nations.
2 He will not cry out or shout or try to make himself heard in the streets.
3 He will not break even a crushed reed. He will not put out even the weakest flame. He will bring true justice.
4 He will not grow weak or give up until he has brought justice to the world. And people in faraway places will hope to receive his teachings."
5 The Lord, the true God, said these things. (He created the sky and spread it out over the earth. He formed the earth and everything it produced. He breathes life into all the people on earth. He gives a spirit to everyone who walks on the earth.)
6 "I, the Lord, was right to call you. I will hold your hand and protect you. You will be the sign of my agreement with the people. You will be a light for the other nations.
7 You will make the blind able to see. You will free those who are held as captives. You will lead those who live in darkness out of their prison.
8 "I am the Lord. My name is Yahweh. I will not give my glory to another. I will not let statues take the praise that should be mine.
9 In the past, I told you what would happen, and it happened! Now I am telling you something new, and I am telling you now, before it happens."
10 Sing a new song to the Lord; everywhere on earth praise him, all you who sail on the seas, everything in the sea, and all you people in faraway places!
11 Deserts and cities, villages of Kedar, praise the Lord! People living in Sela, sing for joy! Sing from the top of your mountain.
12 Give glory to the Lord. Praise him, all you people in faraway lands!
13 The Lord will go out like a strong soldier. Like a man going into battle, he will be full of excitement. He will shout with a loud cry, and he will defeat his enemies.
14 "For a long time I have said nothing. I have controlled myself and kept quiet. But now I will cry out like a woman giving birth. My breathing is getting faster and louder.
15 I will destroy the hills and mountains. I will dry up all the plants that grow there. I will change rivers to dry land and dry up pools of water.
16 Then I will lead the blind along a path they never knew to places where they have never been before. I will change darkness into light for them. I will make the rough ground smooth. I will do all these things for them. I will not abandon my people.
17 But some of the people have left me. They say to their gold statues, 'You are my gods.' They trust in their false gods, but they will be disappointed and shamed.
18 "Deaf people, listen to me! Blind people, look and see!
19 In all the world, no one is more blind than my servant. No one is more deaf than my messenger. No one is more blind than my chosen people, the servant of the Lord.
20 My people see what they should do, but they do not obey me. They can hear with their ears, but they refuse to listen to me."
21 The Lord wants them to do what is right. He wants them to honor his wonderful teachings.
22 But look at his people. Others have defeated them and stolen from them. The young men are afraid. They are locked in prisons. People have taken advantage of them, and there is no one to protect them. Others take their money, and there is no one to say, "Give it back!"
23 If any of you listens to this message, you should listen to what was said before.
24 Who let people defeat Jacob? Who let them take what belonged to Israel? The Lord allowed them to do this. We sinned against him, so he let people take away our wealth. The people did not want to live the way he wanted. They refused to listen to his teaching.
25 So he poured out his anger on them and brought wars against them. It was as if there were fires all around them, but they didn't know what was happening. It was as if they were burning, but they didn't try to understand.
1 Behold H2005 IJEC my servant H5650 CMS-1MS , whom I uphold H8551 ; mine elect H972 , in whom my soul H5315 CFS-1MS delighteth H7521 ; I have put H5414 VQQ1MS my spirit H7307 CFS-1MS upon H5921 PREP-3MS him : he shall bring forth H3318 judgment H4941 NMS to the Gentiles H1471 LD-NMP .
2 He shall not H3808 NADV cry H6817 , nor H3808 W-NADV lift up H5375 VQY3MS , nor H3808 ADV cause his voice H6963 to be heard H8085 in the street H2351 BD-NMS .
3 A bruised H7533 reed H7070 NMS shall he not H3808 NADV break H7665 , and the smoking H3544 flax H6594 shall he not H3808 NADV quench H3518 : he shall bring forth H3318 judgment H4941 NMS unto truth H571 .
4 He shall not H3808 NADV fail H3543 nor H3808 W-NADV be discouraged H7533 , till H5704 PREP he have set H7760 VQY3MS judgment H4941 NMS in the earth H776 B-NFS : and the isles H339 shall wait H3176 for his law H8451 .
5 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS God H410 the LORD H3068 EDS , he that created H1254 the heavens H8064 D-NMD , and stretched them out H5186 ; he that spread forth H7554 the earth H776 D-GFS , and that which cometh out H6631 of it ; he that giveth H5414 VQPMS breath H5397 unto the people H5971 upon H5921 PREP-3FS it , and spirit H7307 W-GFS to them that walk H1980 therein :
6 I H589 PPRO-1MS the LORD H3068 EDS have called H7121 thee in righteousness H6664 , and will hold H2388 thine hand H3027 B-CFS-2MS , and will keep H5341 thee , and give H5414 thee for a covenant H1285 of the people H5971 NMS , for a light H216 L-NMS of the Gentiles H1471 NMP ;
7 To open H6491 the blind H5787 eyes H5869 NMD , to bring out H3318 the prisoners H616 from the prison H4525 , and them that sit H3427 in darkness H2822 NMS out of the prison H3608 house H1004 .
8 I H589 PPRO-1MS am the LORD H3068 EDS : that H1931 PPRO-3MS is my name H8034 : and my glory H3519 will I not H3808 ADV give H5414 VQY1MS to another H312 L-AMS , neither my praise H8416 to graven images H6456 .
9 Behold H2009 IJEC , the former things H7223 D-AFP are come to pass H935 VQQ3MP , and new things H2319 WD-AFP do I H589 PPRO-1MS declare H5046 VHPMS : before H2962 B-ADV they spring forth H6779 VQY3FP I tell H8085 VHY1MS you of them .
10 Sing H7891 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS a new H2319 song H7892 , and his praise H8416 from the end H7097 M-CMS of the earth H776 D-GFS , ye that go down H3381 to the sea H3220 D-NMS , and all that is therein H4393 ; the isles H339 , and the inhabitants H3427 thereof .
11 Let the wilderness H4057 NMS and the cities H5892 thereof lift up H5375 VQY3MP their voice , the villages H2691 that Kedar H6938 doth inhabit H3427 : let the inhabitants H3427 of the rock H5553 sing H7442 , let them shout H6681 from the top H7218 of the mountains H2022 NMP .
12 Let them give H7760 VQY3MP glory H3519 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and declare H5046 his praise H8416 in the islands H339 .
13 The LORD H3068 EDS shall go forth H3318 VQY3MS as a mighty man H1368 , he shall stir up H5782 VHY3MS jealousy H7068 like a man H376 of war H4421 : he shall cry H7321 , yea H637 CONJ , roar H6873 ; he shall prevail H1396 VHY3MS against H5921 PREP his enemies H341 .
14 I have long time H5769 holden my peace H2814 ; I have been still H2790 VHY1MS , and refrained myself H662 : now will I cry H6463 like a travailing woman H3205 ; I will destroy H5395 and devour H7602 at once H3162 ADV .
15 I will make waste H2717 mountains H2022 NMP and hills H1389 , and dry up H3001 all H3605 W-CMS their herbs H6212 ; and I will make H7760 W-VQQ1MS the rivers H5104 NMP islands H339 , and I will dry up H3001 the pools H98 .
16 And I will bring H1980 the blind H5787 by a way H1870 B-NMS that they knew H3045 VQQ3MP not H3808 NADV ; I will lead them H1869 in paths H5410 that they have not H3808 ADV known H3045 VQQ3MP : I will make H7760 VQY1MS darkness H4285 light H216 L-NMS before H6440 L-CMP-3MP them , and crooked things H4625 straight H4334 . These H428 PMP things H1697 AMP will I do H6213 unto them , and not H3808 W-NADV forsake H5800 them .
17 They shall be turned H5472 back H268 , they shall be greatly ashamed H954 , that trust H982 in graven images H6459 , that say H559 D-VQPMP to the molten images H4541 , Ye H859 PPRO-2MS are our gods H430 .
18 Hear H8085 , ye deaf H2795 ; and look H5027 , ye blind H5787 , that ye may see H7200 .
19 Who H4310 IPRO is blind H5787 , but H518 PART my servant H5650 CMS-1MS ? or deaf H2795 , as my messenger H4397 that I sent H7971 ? who H4310 IPRO is blind H5787 as he that is perfect H7999 , and blind H5787 as the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS \'s servant H5650 K-NMS ?
20 Seeing H7200 many things H7227 AFP , but thou observest H8104 not H3808 W-NPAR ; opening H6491 the ears H241 , but he heareth H8085 VQY3MS not H3808 W-NPAR .
21 The LORD H3068 EDS is well pleased H2654 for his righteousness\' sake H4616 L-CONJ ; he will magnify H1431 the law H8451 NFS , and make it honorable H142 .
22 But this H1931 W-PPRO-3MS is a people H5971 NMS robbed H962 and spoiled H8154 ; they are all H3605 CMS-3MP of them snared H6351 in holes H2352 , and they are hid H2244 in prison H3608 houses H1004 : they are H1961 VQQ3MP for a prey H957 , and none H369 W-NPAR delivereth H5337 ; for a spoil H4933 , and none H369 W-NPAR saith H559 , Restore H7725 .
23 Who H4310 IPRO among you will give ear H238 VHY3MS to this H2063 DPRO ? who will hearken H7181 and hear H8085 for the time to come H268 ?
24 Who H4310 IPRO gave H5414 VQQ3MS Jacob H3290 for a spoil H4933 , and Israel H3478 to the robbers H962 ? did not H3808 W-NPAR the LORD H3068 EDS , he against whom H2098 we have sinned H2398 ? for they would H14 VQQ3MP not H3808 W-NPAR walk H1980 VQFA in his ways H1870 , neither H3808 W-NPAR were they obedient H8085 VQQ3MP unto his law H8451 .
25 Therefore he hath poured H8210 upon H5921 PREP-3MS him the fury H2534 NFS of his anger H639 CMS-3MS , and the strength H5807 of battle H4421 NFS : and it hath set him on fire H3857 round about H5439 M-ADV , yet he knew H3045 not H3808 W-NPAR ; and it burned H1197 W-VQY3FS him , yet he laid H7760 VQY3MS it not H3808 W-NPAR to H5921 PREP-3MS heart H3820 NMS .
