- 1. But now thus sayeth the Lord that created thee, O Iacob, and hee that formed thee, O Israel; Feare not: for I haue redeemed thee, I haue called thee by thy name, thou art mine.
- 2. When thou passest through the waters, I wil be with thee; and through the riuers, they shal not ouerflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burnt; neither shall the flame kindle vpon thee.
- 3. For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy one of Israel, thy Sauiour: I gaue Egypt for thy ransome, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
- 4. Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast bene honourable, and I haue loued thee: therefore will I giue men for thee, and people for thy life.
- 5. Feare not, for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the East, and gather thee from the West.
- 6. I wil say to the North, Giue vp; and to the South, Keepe not backe: bring my sonnes from farre, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
- 7. Euen euery one that is called by my Name: for I haue created him for my glory, I haue formed him, yea I haue made him.
- 8. Bring foorth the blinde people, that haue eyes; and the deafe that haue eares.
- 9. Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew vs former things? Let them bring foorth their witnesses, that they may be iustified: or let them heare, and say, It is trueth.
- 10. Yee are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my seruant whom I haue chosen: that ye may know and beleeue me, and vnderstand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
- 11. I, euen I am the Lord, and beside me there is no Sauiour.
- 12. I haue declared, and haue saued, and I haue shewed, when there was no strange God among you: therefore yee are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God.
- 13. Yea before the day was, I am hee; and there is none that can deliuer out of my hand: I will worke, and who shall let it?
- 14. Thus sayth the Lord your Redeemer, the Holy one of Israel; For your sake I haue sent to Babylon, and haue brought downe all their nobles, and the Caldeans, whose crie is in the shippes.
- 15. I am the Lord, your Holy one, the Creatour of Israel, your King.
- 16. Thus sayth the Lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mightie waters:
- 17. Which bringeth foorth the charet and horse, the armie and the power: they shall lie downe together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as towe.
- 18. Remember yee not the former things, neither consider the things of olde.
- 19. Behold, I will doe a new thing: now it shall spring foorth, shall yee not know it? I will euen make a way in the wildernesse, and riuers in the desert.
- 20. The beast of the field shall honor mee, the dragons and the owles, because I giue waters in the wildernesse, and riuers in the desert, to giue drinke to my people, my chosen.
- 21. This people haue I formed for my selfe, they shall shewe foorth my praise.
- 22. But thou hast not called vpon me, O Iacob, but thou hast beene wearie of me, O Israel.
- 23. Thou hast not brought mee the small cattell of thy burnt offrings, neither hast thou honoured mee with thy sacrifices. I haue not caused thee to serue with an offring, nor wearied thee with incense.
- 24. Thou hast bought mee no sweete cane with money, neither hast thou filled mee with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made mee to serue with thy sins, thou hast wearied mee with thine iniquities.
- 25. I, euen I am hee that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine owne sake, and will not remember thy sinnes.
- 26. Put mee in remembrance: let vs plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest bee iustified.
- 27. Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers haue transgressed against mee.
- 28. Therefore I haue profaned the princes of the Sanctuarie, and haue giuen Iacob to the curse, and Israel to reproches.
