Isaiah 45:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 This is what the Lord said to Cyrus, his chosen king: "I took you by your right hand to help you defeat nations, to strip other kings of their power, and to open city gates that will not be closed again.
2 "I will go in front of you and make the mountains flat. I will break the city gates of bronze and cut the iron bars on the gates.
3 I will give you the wealth that is stored in secret places. I will give you those hidden treasures. Then you will know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who calls you by name.
4 I do this for my servant, Jacob. I do it for my chosen people, Israel. Cyrus, I am calling you by name. You don't know me, but I know you.
5 I am the Lord, the only God. There is no other God except me. I put your clothes on you, but still you don't know me.
6 I am doing this so that everyone will know that I am the only God. From the east to the west, people will know that I am the Lord and that there is no other God.
7 I made the light and the darkness. I bring peace and cause trouble. I, the Lord, do all these things.
8 "May the clouds in the skies above drop goodness on the earth like rain. May the earth open and let salvation grow. And may victory grow with it! I, the Lord, created him.
9 "Look at these people! They are arguing with the one who made them. Look at them argue with me. They are like pieces of clay from a broken pot. Clay does not say to the one molding it, 'Man, what are you doing?' Things that are made don't have the power to question the one who makes them.
10 A father gives life to his children, and they cannot ask, 'Why are you giving me life?' They cannot question their mother and ask, 'Why are you giving birth to me?'"
11 The Lord God is the Holy One of Israel. He created Israel, and he says, "My children, you asked me to show you a sign. You told me to show you what I have done.
12 I made the earth, and I created the people on it. I used my own hands to make the skies. And I command all the armies in the sky.
13 I was right to give power to Cyrus, and I will make his work easy. He will rebuild my city, and he will set my people free without bribes or payment." The Lord All-Powerful said this.
14 The Lord says, "Egypt and Ethiopia are rich, but, Israel, you will get those riches. The tall people from Seba will be yours. They will walk behind you with chains around their necks. They will bow down before you and ask you to pray for them and say, 'The true God really is with you, and there is no other God.'"
15 You are the God people cannot see. You are the God who saves Israel.
16 Many people make false gods, but they will be disappointed. All of them will go away ashamed.
17 But Israel will be saved by the Lord. That salvation will continue forever. Never again will Israel be shamed.
18 The Lord is God. He made the skies and the earth. He put the earth in its place. He did not want the earth to be empty when he made it. He created it to be lived on. "I am the Lord. There is no other God.
19 I have spoken openly, not in secret. I did not hide my words in a dark and secret place. I did not tell the people of Jacob to look for me in empty places. I am the Lord, and I speak the truth. I say only what is right.
20 "You people who escaped from other nations, gather together before me. (These people carry statues of false gods. They pray to useless gods, but they don't know what they are doing.
21 Tell them to come to me. Let them present their case and discuss these things.) "Who told you about this before it happened? Who told you this so long ago? I, the Lord, am the one who said these things. I am the only God, the one who does what is right. I am the one who saves, and there is no other!
22 So all you people in faraway places, turn to me and be saved, because I am God, and there is no other.
23 "When I make a promise, that promise is true. It will happen. And I swear by my own power that everyone will bow before me and will take an oath to obey me.
24 People will say, 'Goodness and power come only from the Lord.'" Everyone who is angry with the Lord will come to him and be ashamed.
25 The Lord will help the people of Israel live right and praise their God.
1 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 to his anointed, H4899 to Cyrus, H3566 whose H834 right hand H3225 I have holden, H2388 to subdue H7286 nations H1471 before H6440 him ; and I will loose H6605 the loins H4975 of kings, H4428 to open H6605 before H6440 him the two leaved gates; H1817 and the gates H8179 shall not H3808 be shut; H5462
2 I H589 will go H1980 before H6440 thee , and make the crooked places straight H3474 H1921 : I will break in pieces H7665 the gates H1817 of brass, H5154 and cut in sunder H1438 the bars H1280 of iron: H1270
3 And I will give H5414 thee the treasures H214 of darkness, H2822 and hidden riches H4301 of secret places, H4565 that H4616 thou mayest know H3045 that H3588 I, H589 the LORD, H3068 which call H7121 thee by thy name, H8034 am the God H430 of Israel. H3478
4 For Jacob H3290 my servant's sake H4616 H5650 , and Israel H3478 mine elect, H972 I have even called H7121 thee by thy name: H8034 I have surnamed H3655 thee , though thou hast not H3808 known H3045 me.
5 I H589 am the LORD, H3068 and there is none H369 else, H5750 there is no H369 God H430 beside H2108 me : I girded H247 thee , though thou hast not H3808 known H3045 me:
6 That H4616 they may know H3045 from the rising H4480 H4217 of the sun, H8121 and from the west H4480 H4628 , that H3588 there is none H657 beside H1107 me. I H589 am the LORD, H3068 and there is none H369 else. H5750
7 I form H3335 the light, H216 and create H1254 darkness: H2822 I make H6213 peace, H7965 and create H1254 evil: H7451 I H589 the LORD H3068 do H6213 all H3605 these H428 things .
8 Drop down, H7491 ye heavens, H8064 from above H4480 H4605 , and let the skies H7834 pour down H5140 righteousness: H6664 let the earth H776 open, H6605 and let them bring forth H6509 salvation, H3468 and let righteousness H6666 spring up H6779 together; H3162 I H589 the LORD H3068 have created H1254 it.
9 Woe H1945 unto him that striveth H7378 with H854 his Maker H3335 ! Let the potsherd H2789 strive with H854 the potsherds H2789 of the earth. H127 Shall the clay H2563 say H559 to him that fashioneth H3335 it, What H4100 makest H6213 thou? or thy work, H6467 He hath no H369 hands H3027 ?
10 Woe H1945 unto him that saith H559 unto his father, H1 What H4100 begettest H3205 thou? or to the woman, H802 What H4100 hast thou brought forth H2342 ?
11 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 the Holy One H6918 of Israel, H3478 and his Maker, H3335 Ask H7592 me of things to come H857 concerning H5921 my sons, H1121 and concerning H5921 the work H6467 of my hands H3027 command H6680 ye me.
12 I H595 have made H6213 the earth, H776 and created H1254 man H120 upon H5921 it: I, H589 even my hands, H3027 have stretched out H5186 the heavens, H8064 and all H3605 their host H6635 have I commanded. H6680
13 I H595 have raised him up H5782 in righteousness, H6664 and I will direct H3474 all H3605 his ways: H1870 he H1931 shall build H1129 my city, H5892 and he shall let go H7971 my captives, H1546 not H3808 for price H4242 nor H3808 reward, H7810 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts. H6635
14 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 The labor H3018 of Egypt, H4714 and merchandise H5505 of Ethiopia H3568 and of the Sabeans, H5436 men H376 of stature, H4060 shall come over H5674 unto H5921 thee , and they shall be H1961 thine : they shall come H1980 after H310 thee ; in chains H2131 they shall come over, H5674 and they shall fall down H7812 unto H413 thee , they shall make supplication H6419 unto H413 thee, saying , Surely H389 God H410 is in thee ; and there is none H369 else, H5750 there is no H657 God. H430
15 Verily H403 thou H859 art a God H410 that hidest thyself, H5641 O God H430 of Israel, H3478 the Savior. H3467
16 They shall be ashamed, H954 and also H1571 confounded, H3637 all H3605 of them : they shall go H1980 to confusion H3639 together H3162 that are makers H2796 of idols. H6736
17 But Israel H3478 shall be saved H3467 in the LORD H3068 with an everlasting H5769 salvation: H8668 ye shall not H3808 be ashamed H954 nor H3808 confounded H3637 world without end H5704 H5769. H5703
18 For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 that created H1254 the heavens; H8064 God H430 himself H1931 that formed H3335 the earth H776 and made H6213 it; he H1931 hath established H3559 it , he created H1254 it not H3808 in vain, H8414 he formed H3335 it to be inhabited: H3427 I H589 am the LORD; H3068 and there is none H369 else. H5750
19 I have not H3808 spoken H1696 in secret, H5643 in a dark H2822 place H4725 of the earth: H776 I said H559 not H3808 unto the seed H2233 of Jacob, H3290 Seek H1245 ye me in vain: H8414 I H589 the LORD H3068 speak H1696 righteousness, H6664 I declare H5046 things that are right. H4339
20 Assemble yourselves H6908 and come; H935 draw near H5066 together, H3162 ye that are escaped H6412 of the nations: H1471 they have no knowledge H3045 H3808 that set up H5375 H853 the wood H6086 of their graven image, H6459 and pray H6419 unto H413 a god H410 that cannot H3808 save. H3467
21 Tell H5046 ye , and bring them near; H5066 yea, H637 let them take counsel H3289 together: H3162 who H4310 hath declared H8085 this H2063 from ancient time H4480 H6924 ? who hath told H5046 it from that time H4480 H227 ? have not H3808 I H589 the LORD H3068 ? and there is no H369 God H430 else H5750 beside H4480 H1107 me ; a just H6662 God H410 and a Savior; H3467 there is none H369 beside H2108 me.
22 Look H6437 unto H413 me , and be ye saved, H3467 all H3605 the ends H657 of the earth: H776 for H3588 I H589 am God, H410 and there is none H369 else. H5750
23 I have sworn H7650 by myself , the word H1697 is gone out H3318 of my mouth H4480 H6310 in righteousness, H6666 and shall not H3808 return, H7725 That H3588 unto me every H3605 knee H1290 shall bow, H3766 every H3605 tongue H3956 shall swear. H7650
24 Surely H389 , shall one say, H559 in the LORD H3068 have I righteousness H6666 and strength: H5797 even to H5704 him shall men come; H935 and all H3605 that are incensed H2734 against him shall be ashamed. H954
25 In the LORD H3068 shall all H3605 the seed H2233 of Israel H3478 be justified, H6663 and shall glory. H1984
