But now thus says the Lord that created thee, O Ya῾aqov, and he that formed thee, O Yisra᾽el, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Yisra᾽el, thy deliverer: I gave Miżrayim for thy ransom, Kush and Seva instead of thee.

Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou wast honoured, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.

Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;

I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;

every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him.

Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.

Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled: who among them can declare this, and announce to us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.

You are my witnesses, says the Lord, 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, neither shall there be after me.

I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no deliverer.

I have declared, and have saved, and I have announced, and there was no strange god among you: therefore you are my witnesses, says the Lord, and I am God.

Yea, from the first I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall reverse it?

Thus says the Lord, your redeemer, the Holy One of Yisra᾽el; For your sake I have sent to Bavel, and will bring down all of them as fugitives, the Kasdim, in the ships of their song.

I am the Lord, your Holy One, the Creator of Yisra᾽el, your King.

Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;

who brings out chariot and horse, army and power; they lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched like a wick.

Remember not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

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

The beast of the field shall honour me, the jackals and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

This people have I formed for myself; they shall relate my praise.

But thou hast not called upon me, O Ya῾aqov; but thou hast been weary of me, O Yisra᾽el.

Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings: nor hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not burdened thee with a meal offering, nor wearied thee with incense.

Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, nor hast thou sated me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast burdened me with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.

I, even I, am he that blots out thy transgressions for my own sake, and will not remember thy sins.

Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayst be justified.

Thy first father has sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.

Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Ya῾aqov to destruction, and Yisra᾽el to reviling.
