Isaiah 42
42"Behold! My Servant whom I uphold, My Elect One in whom My soul delights! I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.H5650H8551H972H5315H7521H5414H7307H3318H4941H14712He will not cry out, nor raise His voice, Nor cause His voice to be heard in the street.H6817H5375H6963H8085H23513A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench; He will bring forth justice for truth.H7533H7070H7665H3544H6594H3518H3318H4941H5714He will not fail nor be discouraged, Till He has established justice in the earth; And the coastlands shall wait for His law."H3543H7533H7760H4941H776H339H3176H84515Thus says God the LORD, Who created the heavens and stretched them out, Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it, Who gives breath to the people on it, And spirit to those who walk on it:H559H410H3068H1254H8064H5186H7554H776H6631H5414H5397H5971H7307H19806"I, the LORD, have called You in righteousness, And will hold Your hand; I will keep You and give You as a covenant to the people, As a light to the Gentiles,H3068H7121H6664H2388H3027H5341H5414H1285H5971H216H14717To open blind eyes, To bring out prisoners from the prison, Those who sit in darkness from the prison house.H6491H5787H5869H3318H616H4525H3427H2822H3608H10048I am the LORD, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.H3068H8034H3519H5414H312H8416H64569Behold, the former things have come to pass, And new things I declare; Before they spring forth I tell you of them."H7223H935H2319H5046H6779H808510Sing to the LORD a new song, And His praise from the ends of the earth, You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, You coastlands and you inhabitants of them!H7891H3068H2319H7892H8416H7097H776H3381H3220H4393H339H342711Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voice, The villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing, Let them shout from the top of the mountains.H4057H5892H5375H2691H6938H3427H3427H5553H7442H6681H7218H202212Let them give glory to the LORD, And declare His praise in the coastlands.H7760H3519H3068H5046H8416H33913The LORD shall go forth like a mighty man; He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war. He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud; He shall prevail against His enemies.H3068H3318H1368H5782H7068H376H4421H7321H6873H1396H34114"I have held My peace a long time, I have been still and restrained Myself. Now I will cry like a woman in labor, I will pant and gasp at once.H5769H2814H2790H662H6463H3205H5395H8074H7602H316215I will lay waste the mountains and hills, And dry up all their vegetation; I will make the rivers coastlands, And I will dry up the pools.H2717H2022H1389H3001H6212H7760H5104H339H3001H9816I will bring the blind by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, And crooked places straight. These things I will do for them, And not forsake them.H3212H5787H1870H3045H1869H5410H3045H7760H4285H216H6440H4625H4334H1697H6213H580017They shall be turned back, They shall be greatly ashamed, Who trust in carved images, Who say to the molded images, 'You are our gods.'H5472H268H1322H954H982H6459H559H4541H43018"Hear, you deaf; And look, you blind, that you may see.H8085H2795H5027H5787H720019Who is blind but My servant, Or deaf as My messenger whom I send? Who is blind as he who is perfect, And blind as the LORD'S servant?H5787H5650H2795H4397H7971H5787H7999H5787H3068H565020Seeing many things, but you do not observe; Opening the ears, but he does not hear."H7200H7200H7227H8104H6491H241H808521The LORD is well pleased for His righteousness' sake; He will exalt the law and make it honorable.H3068H2654H6664H1431H8451H14222But this is a people robbed and plundered; All of them are snared in holes, And they are hidden in prison houses; They are for prey, and no one delivers; For plunder, and no one says, "Restore!"H5971H962H8154H6351H2352H970H2244H3608H1004H957H5337H4933H559H772523Who among you will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?H238H7181H8085H26824Who gave Jacob for plunder, and Israel to the robbers? Was it not the LORD, He against whom we have sinned? For they would not walk in His ways, Nor were they obedient to His law.H5414H3290H4933H4882H3478H962H3068H2098H2398H14H1980H1870H8085H845125Therefore He has poured on him the fury of His anger And the strength of battle; It has set him on fire all around, Yet he did not know; And it burned him, Yet he did not take it to heart.H8210H2534H639H5807H4421H3857H5439H3045H1197H7760H3820
