  42:1 ¶
Jacob is my servant, I will help him: Israel is my chosen, my soul has accepted him; I have put my Spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgement to the Gentiles. |
|
42:1 ¶
Beholdº
my servant,º
whom I uphold;ºº
mine elect,º
[in whom] my soulº
delighteth;ºº
I have putºº
my spiritº
uponº
him: he shall bring forthºº
judgmentº
to the Gentiles.º |
|
42:2
He shall not cry, nor lift up [his voice], nor shall his voice be heard without. |
|
42:2
He shall notº
cry,ºº
norº
lift up,ºº
norº
cause his voiceº
to be heardºº
in the street.º |
|
42:3
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench; but he shall bring forth judgement to truth. |
|
42:3
A bruisedºº
reedº
shall he notº
break,ºº
and the smokingº
flaxº
shall he notº
quench:ºº
he shall bring forthºº
judgmentº
unto truth.º |
|
42:4
He shall shine out, and shall not be discouraged, until he have set judgement on the earth: and in his name shall the Gentiles trust. |
|
42:4
He shall notº
failºº
norº
be discouraged,ºº
tillº
he have setºº
judgmentº
in the earth:º
and the islesº
shall waitºº
for his law.º |
|
42:5 ¶
Thus saith the Lord God, who made the heaven, and established it; who settled the earth, and the things in it, and gives breath to the people on it, and spirit to them that tread on it: |
|
42:5 ¶
Thusº
saithºº
Elº
Yahweh,º
he that createdºº
the heavens,º
and stretched them out;ºº
he that spread forthºº
the earth,º
and that which cometh outº
of it; he that givethºº
breathº
unto the peopleº
uponº
it, and spiritº
to them that walkºº
therein: |
|
42:6
I the Lord God have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will strengthen thee: and I have given thee for the covenant of a race, for a light of the Gentiles: |
|
42:6
Iº
Yahwehº
have calledºº
thee in righteousness,º
and will holdºº
thine hand,º
and will keepºº
thee, and giveºº
thee for a covenantº
of the people,º
for a lightº
of the Gentiles;º |
|
42:7
to open the eyes of the blind, to bring the bound and them that sit in darkness out of bonds and the prison-house. |
|
42:7
To openºº
the blindº
eyes,º
to bring outºº
the prisonersº
from the prison,ºº
[and] them that sitºº
in darknessº
out of the prisonº
house.ºº |
|
42:8
I am the Lord God: that is my name: I will not give my glory to another, nor my praises to graven images. |
|
42:8
Iº
[am] Yahweh:º
thatº
[is] my name:º
and my gloryº
will I notº
giveºº
to another,º
neither my praiseº
to graven images.º |
|
42:9
Behold, the ancient things have come to pass, and [so will] the new things which I tell you: yea, before I tell [them] they are made known to you. |
|
42:9
Behold,º
the former thingsº
are come to pass,ºº
and new thingsº
do Iº
declare:ºº
beforeº
they spring forthºº
I tellºº
you of them. |
|
42:10
Sing a new hymn to the Lord: ye [who are] his dominion, glorify his name from the end of the earth: ye that go down to the sea, and sail upon it; the islands, and they that dwell in them. |
|
42:10
Singºº
unto Yahwehº
a newº
song,º
[and] his praiseº
from the endºº
of the earth,º
ye that go downºº
to the sea,º
and all that is therein;º
the isles,º
and the inhabitantsºº
thereof. |
|
42:11
Rejoice, thou wilderness, and the villages thereof, the hamlets, and the dwellers in Kedar: the inhabitants of the rock shall rejoice, they shall shout from the top of the mountains. |
|
42:11
Let the wildernessº
and the citiesº
thereof lift upºº
[their voice], the villagesº
[that] Kedarº
doth inhabit:ºº
let the inhabitantsºº
of the rockº
sing,ºº
let them shoutºº
from the topºº
of the mountains.º |
|
42:12
They shall give glory to God, [and] shall proclaim his praises in the islands. |
|
42:12
Let them giveºº
gloryº
unto Yahweh,º
and declareºº
his praiseº
in the islands.º |
|
42:13
The Lord God of hosts shall go forth, and crush the war: he shall stir up jealousy, and shall shout mightily against his enemies. |
|
42:13
Yahwehº
shall go forthºº
as a mighty man,º
he shall stir upºº
jealousyº
like a manº
of war:º
he shall cry,ºº
yea,º
roar;ºº
he shall prevailºº
againstº
his enemies.ºº |
|
42:14
I have been silent: shall I also always be silent and forbear: I have endured like a travailing [woman]: I will [now] amaze and wither at once. |
|
42:14
I have long timeºº
holden my peace;ºº
I have been still,ºº
[and] refrainedºº
myself:º
[now] will I cryºº
like a travailing woman;ºº
I will destroyºººº
and devourºº
at once.º |
|
42:15
I will make desolate mountains and hills, and will dry up all their grass; and I will make the rivers islands, and dry up the pools. |
|
42:15
I will make wasteºº
mountainsº
and hills,º
and dry upºº
allº
their herbs;º
and I will makeºº
the riversº
islands,º
and I will dry upºº
the pools.º |
|
42:16
And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not, and I will cause them to tread paths which they have not known: I will turn darkness into light for them, and crooked things into straight. These things will I do, and will not forsake them. |
|
42:16
And I will bringººº
the blindº
by a wayº
[that] they knewºº
not;º
I will leadºº
themº
in pathsº
[that] they have notº
known:ºº
I will makeºº
darknessº
lightº
beforeº
them, and crooked thingsº
straight.º
Theseº
thingsº
will I doºº
unto them, and notº
forsakeºº
them. |
|
42:17 ¶
But they are turned back: be ye utterly ashamed that trust in graven [images], who say to the molten [images], Ye are our gods. |
|
42:17 ¶
They shall be turnedºº
back,º
they shall be greatlyº
ashamed,ººº
that trustºº
in graven images,º
that sayºº
to the molten images,º
Yeº
[are] our elohim.º |
|
42:18
Hear, ye deaf, and look up, ye blind, to see. |
|
42:18
Hear,ºº
ye deaf;º
and look,ºº
ye blind,º
that ye may see.ºº |
|
42:19
And who is blind, but my servants? and deaf, but they that rule over them? yea, the servants of God have been made blind. |
|
42:19
Whoº
[is] blind,º
butºº
my servant?º
or deaf,º
as my messengerº
[that] I sent?ºº
whoº
[is] blindº
as [he that is] perfect,ºº
and blindº
as Yahweh'sº
servant?º |
|
42:20
Ye have often seen, and have not taken heed; [your] ears have been opened, and ye have not heard. |
|
42:20
Seeingºººº
many things,º
but thou observestºº
not;º
openingºº
the ears,º
but he hearethºº
not.º |
|
42:21
The Lord God has taken counsel that he might be justified, and might magnify [his] praise. |
|
42:21
Yahwehº
is well pleasedºº
for his righteousness'º
sake;ºº
he will magnifyºº
the law,º
and make [it] honourable.ºº |
|
42:22
And I beheld, and the people were spoiled and plundered: for [there is] a snare in the secret chambers everywhere, and in the houses also, where they have hidden them: they became a spoil, and there was no one that delivered the prey, and there was none who said, Restore. |
|
42:22
But thisº
[is] a peopleº
robbedºº
and spoiled;ºº
[they are] allº
of them snaredºº
in holes,ººº
and they are hidºº
in prisonº
houses:º
they areº
for a prey,º
and noneº
delivereth;ºº
for a spoil,º
and noneº
saith,ºº
Restore.ºº |
|
42:23
Who [is there] among you that will give ear to these things? hearken ye to the things which are coming to pass. |
|
42:23
Whoº
among you will give earºº
to this?º
[who] will hearkenºº
and hearºº
for the time to come?º |
|
42:24
For what did he give to Jacob up to spoil, and Israel to them that plundered him? Did not God [do it] against whom they sinned? [and] they would not walk in his ways, nor hearken to his law. |
|
42:24
Whoº
gaveºº
Jacobº
for a spoil,ººº
and Israelº
to the robbers?ºº
did notº
Yahweh,º
he against whomº
we have sinned?ºº
for they wouldºº
notº
walkºº
in his ways,º
neitherº
were they obedientºº
unto his law.º |
|
42:25
So he brought upon them the fury of his wrath; and the war, and those that burnt round about them, prevailed against them; yet no one of them knew [it], neither did they lay [it] to heart. |
|
42:25
Therefore he hath pouredºº
uponº
him the furyº
of his anger,º
and the strengthº
of battle:º
and it hath set him on fireºº
round about,ºº
yet he knewºº
not;º
and it burnedºº
him, yet he laidºº
[it] notº
toº
heart.º |
