The Book of the Prophet Isaiah

But now so says Jehovah who formed you, O Jacob; and He who made you, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I called [you] by your name; you [are] Mine.

When you pass through the waters, I [will be] with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk in the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame kindle on you.

For I [am] Jehovah your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt [for] your atonement; Ethiopia and Seba instead of you.

Since you were precious in My eyes, you are honored, and I love you; and I give men instead of you; and peoples instead of your soul.

Fear not, for I [am] with you; I will bring your seed from the sunrise; and I will gather you from the sunset.

I will say to the north, Give up! And to the south, Do not hold back! Bring My sons from afar, and bring My daughters from the ends of the earth;

everyone who is called by My name, and I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, [I have] made him.

Let all the nations be assembled, and let the peoples be gathered. Who among them can declare this and cause us to hear former things? Let them give their witnesses, that they may be justified. Or let them hear and say, [It is] true.

You [are] My witnesses, says Jehovah; and My servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe Me, and understand that I [am] He. Before Me there was no God formed; nor shall [any] be after Me.

I, I [am] Jehovah; and [there is] no Savior besides Me.

I declared, and I saved, and I proclaimed; and there is not an alien [god] among you. And you [are] My witnesses, says Jehovah, and I [am] God.

Yea, from this day I [am] He, and no one delivers from My hand. I will work, and who will reverse it?

So says Jehovah, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down as fugitives all of them, even the Chaldeans, whose shout [is] in the ships.

I [am] Jehovah, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.

So says Jehovah, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in mighty waters;

who brings out chariot and horse, force and power; they shall lie down together; they shall not rise; they are put out; they are snuffed out like the wick.

Do not remember former things, nor consider the things of old.

Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall sprout. Shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.
