H8085 [H8798]
Listen
H339
, to me O isles
H7181 [H8685]
; and hearken
H3816
, ye people
H7350
, from far
H3068
; The LORD
H7121 [H8804]
hath called
H990
me from the womb
H4578
; from the body
H517
of my mother
H2142 [H8689]
hath he made mention
H8034
of my name.
2
H7760 [H8799]
And he hath made
H6310
my mouth
H2299
like a sharp
H2719
sword
H6738
; in the shadow
H3027
of his hand
H2244 [H8689]
hath he hid
H7760 [H8799]
me, and made
H1305 [H8803]
me a polished
H2671
shaft
H827
; in his quiver
H5641 [H8689]
hath he hid me;
3
H559 [H8799]
And said
H5650
to me, Thou art my servant
H3478
, O Israel
H6286 [H8691]
, in whom I will be glorified.
4
H559 [H8804]
Then I said
H3021 [H8804]
, I have laboured
H7385
in vain
H3615 [H8765]
, I have spent
H3581
my strength
H8414
for nothing
H1892
, and in vain
H403
: yet surely
H4941
my judgment
H3068
is with the LORD
H6468
, and my work
H430
with my God.
5
H559 [H8804]
And now, saith
H3068
the LORD
H3335 [H8802]
that formed
H990
me from the womb
H5650
to be his servant
H7725 0
, to bring
H3290
Jacob
H7725 [H8788]
again
H3478
to him, Though Israel
H622 [H8735]
be not gathered
H3513 [H8735]
, yet shall I be glorious
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD
H430
, and my God
H5797
shall be my strength.
6
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H7043 [H8738]
, It is a light thing
H5650
that thou shouldest be my servant
H6965 [H8687]
to raise up
H7626
the tribes
H3290
of Jacob
H7725 [H8687]
, and to restore
H5341 H5336 [H8803]
the preserved
H3478
of Israel
H5414 [H8804]
: I will also give
H216
thee for a light
H1471
to the Gentiles
H3444
, that thou mayest be my salvation
H7097
to the end
H776
of the earth.
7
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H1350 [H8802]
, the Redeemer
H3478
of Israel
H6918
, and his Holy One
H5315
, to him whom man
H960
despiseth
H1471
, to him whom the nation
H8581 [H8764]
abhorreth
H5650
, to a servant
H4910 [H8802]
of rulers
H4428
, Kings
H7200 [H8799]
shall see
H6965 [H8804]
and arise
H8269
, princes
H7812 [H8691]
also shall worship
H3068
, because of the LORD
H539 [H8737]
that is faithful
H6918
, and the Holy One
H3478
of Israel
H977 [H8799]
, and he shall choose thee.
8
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H7522
, In an acceptable
H6256
time
H6030 [H8804]
have I heard
H3117
thee, and in a day
H3444
of salvation
H5826 [H8804]
have I helped
H5341 [H8799]
thee: and I will preserve
H5414 [H8799]
thee, and give
H1285
thee for a covenant
H5971
of the people
H6965 [H8687]
, to establish
H776
the earth
H5157 [H8687]
, to cause to inherit
H8074 [H8802]
the desolate
H5159
heritages;
9
H559 [H8800]
That thou mayest say
H631 [H8803]
to the prisoners
H3318 [H8798]
, Go forth
H2822
; to them that are in darkness
H1540 [H8734]
, Show
H7462 [H8799]
yourselves. They shall feed
H1870
in the ways
H4830
, and their pastures
H8205
shall be in all high places.
10
H7456 [H8799]
They shall not hunger
H6770 [H8799]
nor thirst
H8273
; neither shall the heat
H8121
nor sun
H5221 [H8686]
smite
H7355 [H8764]
them: for he that hath mercy
H5090 [H8762]
on them shall lead
H4002
them, even by the springs
H4325
of water
H5095 [H8762]
shall he guide them.
11
H7760 [H8804]
And I will make
H2022
all my mountains
H1870
a way
H4546
, and my highways
H7311 [H8799]
shall be exalted.
12
H935 [H8799]
Behold, these shall come
H7350
from far
H6828
: and, lo, these from the north
H3220
and from the west
H776
; and these from the land
H5515
of Sinim.
13
H7442 [H8798]
Sing
H8064
, O heavens
H1523 [H8798]
; and be joyful
H776
, O earth
H6476 [H8798]
; and break forth
H7440
into singing
H2022
, O mountains
H3068
: for the LORD
H5162 [H8765]
hath comforted
H5971
his people
H7355 [H8762]
, and will have mercy
H6041
upon his afflicted.
14
H6726
But Zion
H559 [H8799]
said
H3068
, The LORD
H5800 [H8804]
hath forsaken
H136
me, and my Lord
H7911 [H8804]
hath forgotten me.
15
H802
Can a woman
H7911 [H8799]
forget
H5764
her nursing child
H7355 [H8763]
, that she should not have compassion
H1121
on the son
H990
of her womb
H7911 [H8799]
? yea, they may forget
H7911 [H8799]
, yet I will not forget thee.
16
H2710 [H8804]
Behold, I have graven
H3709
thee upon the palms of my hands
H2346
; thy walls
H8548
are continually before me.
17
H1121
Thy children
H4116 [H8765]
shall make haste
H2040 [H8764]
; thy destroyers
H2717 [H8688]
and they that made thee waste
H3318 [H8799]
shall go forth from thee.
18
H5375 [H8798]
Lift up
H5869
thy eyes
H5439
all around
H7200 [H8798]
, and behold
H6908 [H8738]
: all these gather themselves together
H935 [H8804]
, and come
H2416
to thee. As I live
H5002 [H8803]
, saith
H3068
the LORD
H3847 [H8799]
, thou shalt surely clothe
H5716
thee with them all, as with an ornament
H7194 [H8762]
, and bind
H3618
them on thee, as a bride doeth.
19
H2723
For thy waste
H8074 [H8802]
and thy desolate places
H776
, and the land
H2035
of thy destruction
H3334 [H8799]
, shall even now be too small
H3427 [H8802]
by reason of the inhabitants
H1104 [H8764]
, and they that swallowed thee up
H7368 [H8804]
shall be far away.
20
H1121
The children
H7923
who thou shalt have, after thou hast lost
H559 [H8799]
the other, shall say
H241
again in thy ears
H4725
, The place
H6862
is too small
H5066 [H8798]
for me: give
H4725
place
H3427 [H8799]
to me that I may dwell.
21
H559 [H8804]
Then shalt thou say
H3824
in thy heart
H3205 [H8804]
, Who hath begotten
H7921 [H8803]
these for me, seeing I have lost my children
H1565
, and am desolate
H1540 [H8802]
, a captive
H5493 [H8803]
, and moving to and fro
H1431 [H8765]
? and who hath brought up
H7604 [H8738]
these? Behold, I was left
H375
alone; these, where have they been?
22
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H136
the Lord
H3069
GOD
H5375 [H8799]
, Behold, I will lift up
H3027
my hand
H1471
to the Gentiles
H7311 [H8686]
, and set up
H5251
my standard
H5971
to the people
H935 [H8689]
: and they shall bring
H1121
thy sons
H2684
in their arms
H1323
, and thy daughters
H5375 [H8735]
shall be carried
H3802
upon their shoulders.
23
H4428
And kings
H539 [H8802]
shall be thy nursing fathers
H8282
, and their queens
H3243 [H8688]
thy nursing mothers
H7812 [H8691]
: they shall bow
H639
to thee with their face
H776
toward the earth
H3897 [H8762]
, and lick up
H6083
the dust
H7272
of thy feet
H3045 [H8804]
; and thou shalt know
H3068
that I am the LORD
H954 [H8799]
: for they shall not be ashamed
H6960 [H8802]
that wait for me.
24
H4455
Shall the prey
H3947 [H8714]
be taken
H1368
from the mighty
H6662
, or the lawful
H7628
captive
H4422 [H8735]
delivered?
25
H559 [H8804]
But thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H7628
, Even the captives
H1368
of the mighty
H3947 [H8714]
shall be taken away
H4455
, and the prey
H6184
of the terrible
H4422 [H8735]
shall be delivered
H7378 [H8799]
: for I will contend
H3401
with him that contendeth
H3467 [H8686]
with thee, and I will save
H1121
thy children.
26
H398 [H8689]
And I will feed
H3238 [H8688]
them that oppress
H1320
thee with their own flesh
H7937 [H8799]
; and they shall be drunk
H1818
with their own blood
H6071
, as with sweet wine
H1320
: and all flesh
H3045 [H8804]
shall know
H3068
that I the LORD
H3467 [H8688]
am thy Saviour
H1350 [H8802]
and thy Redeemer
H46
, the mighty One
H3290
of Jacob.
