1
Yet now hear,
O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:
2
Thus saith the
L
ORD
that made thee, and formed thee from the womb,
which
will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.
3
For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:
4
And they shall spring up
as
among the grass, as willows by the water courses.
5
One shall say, I
am
the
L
ORD
’s; and another shall call
himself
by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe
with
his hand unto the
L
ORD
, and surname
himself
by the name of Israel.
6
Thus saith the
L
ORD
the King of Israel, and his redeemer the
L
ORD
of hosts; I
am
the first, and I
am
the last; and beside me
there is
no God.
7
And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them.
8
Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared
it
? ye
are
even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea,
there is
no God; I know not
any
.
9
They that make a graven image
are
all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they
are
their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image
that
is profitable for nothing?
11
Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they
are
of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up;
yet
they shall fear,
and
they shall be ashamed together.
12
The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
13
The carpenter stretcheth out
his
rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
14
He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish
it
.
15
Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth
it
, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth
it;
he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
16
He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth
himself
, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
17
And the residue thereof he maketh a god,
even
his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth
it
, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou
art
my god.
18
They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see;
and
their hearts, that they cannot understand.
19
And none considereth in his heart, neither
is there
knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten
it:
and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
20
He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say,
Is there
not a lie in my right hand?
21
Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou
art
my servant: I have formed thee; thou
art
my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me.
22
I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.
23
Sing, O ye heavens; for the
L
ORD
hath done
it:
shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the
L
ORD
hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.
24
Thus saith the
L
ORD
, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I
am
the
L
ORD
that maketh all
things;
that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
25
That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise
men
backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
26
That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:
27
That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
28
That saith of Cyrus,
He is
my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
