45:1 ¶
Thus saith the Lord God to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I have held, that nations might be obedient before him; and I will break through the strength of kings; I will open doors before him, and cities shall not be closed. |
|
45:1 ¶
Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh°
to his anointed,°
to Cyrus,°
whose°
right hand°
I have holden,°°
to subdue°°
nations°
before°
him; and I will loose°°
the loins°
of kings,°
to open°°
before°
him the two leaved gates;°
and the gates°
shall not°
be shut;°° |
45:2
I will go before thee, and will level mountains: I will break to pieces brazen doors, and burst iron bars. |
|
45:2
I°
will go°°°
before°
thee, and make°°
the crooked places°°
straight:°°°°°
I will break in pieces°°
the gates°
of brass,°
and cut in sunder°°
the bars°
of iron:° |
45:3
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, I will open to thee hidden, unseen [treasures], that thou mayest know that I, the Lord thy God, that call thee by name, am the God of Israel. |
|
45:3
And I will give°°
thee the treasures°
of darkness,°
and hidden riches°
of secret places,°
that°
thou mayest know°°
that°
I,°
Yahweh,°
which call°°
[thee] by thy name,°
[am] the Elohim°
of Israel.° |
45:4
For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel mine elect, I will call thee by thy name, and accept thee: but thou hast not known me. |
|
45:4
For Jacob°
my servant's°
sake,°°
and Israel°
mine elect,°
I have even called°°
thee by thy name:°
I have surnamed°°
thee, though thou hast not°
known°°
me. |
45:5 ¶
For I am the Lord God, and there is no other God beside me; I strengthened thee, and thou hast not known me. |
|
45:5 ¶
I°
[am] Yahweh,°
and [there is] none°
else,°
[there is] no°
Elohim°
beside°
me: I girded°°
thee, though thou hast not°
known°°
me: |
45:6
That they that [come] from the east and they that [come] from the west may know that there is no God but me. I am the Lord God, and there is none beside. |
|
45:6
That°
they may know°°
from the rising°°
of the sun,°
and from the west,°°
that°
[there is] none°
beside°
me. I°
[am] Yahweh,°
and [there is] none°
else.° |
45:7
I am he that prepared light, and formed darkness; who make peace, and create evil; I am the Lord God, that does all these things. |
|
45:7
I form°°
the light,°
and create°°
darkness:°
I make°°
peace,°
and create°°
evil:°
I°
Yahweh°
do°°
all°
these°
[things]. |
45:8
Let the heaven rejoice from above, and let the clouds rain righteousness: let the earth bring forth, and blossom [with] mercy, and bring forth righteousness likewise: I am the Lord that created thee. |
|
45:8
Drop down,°°
ye heavens,°
from above,°°
and let the skies°
pour down°°
righteousness:°
let the earth°
open,°°
and let them bring forth°°
salvation,°
and let righteousness°
spring up°°
together;°
I°
Yahweh°
have created°°
it. |
45:9
What excellent thing have I prepared as clay of the potter? Will the ploughman plough the earth all say? shall the clay say to the potter, What art thou doing that thou dost not work, nor hast hands? shall the thing formed answer him that formed it? |
|
45:9
Woe°
unto him that striveth°°
with°
his Maker!°°
[Let] the potsherd°
[strive] with°
the potsherds°
of the earth.°
Shall the clay°
say°°
to him that fashioneth°°
it, What°
makest°°
thou? or thy work,°
He hath no°
hands?° |
45:10
As though one should say to [his] father, What wilt thou beget me? and to his mother, What art thou bringing forth? |
|
45:10
Woe°
unto him that saith°°
unto [his] father,°
What°
begettest°°
thou? or to the woman,°
What°
hast thou brought forth?°° |
45:11
For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, who has formed the things that are to come, Enquire of me concerning my sons, and concerning the works of my hands command me. |
|
45:11
Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
the Holy One°
of Israel,°
and his Maker,°°
Ask°°
me of things to come°°
concerning°
my sons,°
and concerning°
the work°
of my hands°
command°°
ye me. |
45:12
I have made the earth, and man upon it: I with my hand have established the heaven; I have given commandment to all the stars. |
|
45:12
I°
have made°°
the earth,°
and created°°
man°
upon°
it: I,°
[even] my hands,°
have stretched out°°
the heavens,°
and all°
their host°
have I commanded.°° |
45:13
I have raised him up [to be] a king with righteousness, and all his ways are right: he shall build my city, and shall turn the captivity of my people, not for ransoms, nor for rewards, saith the Lord of hosts. |
|
45:13
I°
have raised him up°°
in righteousness,°
and I will direct°°
all°
his ways:°
he°
shall build°°
my city,°
and he shall let go°°
my captives,°
not°
for price°
nor°
reward,°
saith°°
Yahweh°
Sabaoth.° |
45:14
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Mizraim{gr.Egypt} has laboured [for thee]; and the merchandise of the Ethiopians, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall pass over to thee, and shall be thy servants; and they shall follow after thee bound in fetters, and shall pass over to thee, and shall do obeisance to thee, and make supplication to thee: because God is in thee; and there is no God beside thee, [O Lord]. |
|
45:14
Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh,°
The labour°
of Egypt,°
and merchandise°
of Ethiopia°
and of the Sabeans,°
men°°
of stature,°
shall come over°°
unto°
thee, and they shall be°
thine: they shall come°°°
after°
thee; in chains°
they shall come over,°°
and they shall fall down°°
unto°
thee, they shall make supplication°°
unto°
thee, [saying], Surely°
El°
[is] in thee; and [there is] none°
else,°
[there is] no°
Elohim.° |
45:15
For thou art God, yet we knew [it] not, the God of Israel, the Saviour. |
|
45:15
Verily°
thou°
[art] an El°
that hidest°°
thyself,°
O Elohim°
of Israel,°
the Saviour.°° |
45:16
All that are opposed to him shall be ashamed and confounded, and shall walk in shame: ye isles, keep a feast to me. |
|
45:16
They shall be ashamed,°°
and also°
confounded,°°
all°
of them: they shall go°°
to confusion°
together°
[that are] makers°
of idols.° |
45:17
Israel is saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: they shall not be ashamed nor confounded for evermore. |
|
45:17
[But] Israel°
shall be saved°°
in Yahweh°
with an everlasting°
salvation:°
ye shall not°
be ashamed°°
nor°
confounded°°
world°
without end.°°° |
45:18
Thus saith the Lord that made the heaven, this God that created the earth, and made it; he marked it out, he made it not in vain, but formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord, and there is none beside. |
|
45:18
For°
thus°
saith°°
Yahweh°
that created°°
the heavens;°
Elohim°
himself°
that formed°°
the earth°
and made°°
it; he°
hath established°°
it, he created°°
it not°
in vain,°
he formed°°
it to be inhabited:°°
I°
[am] Yahweh;°
and [there is] none°
else.° |
45:19
I have not spoken in secret, nor in a dark place of the earth: I said not to the seed of Jacob, Seek vanity: I, even I, am the Lord, speaking righteousness, and proclaiming truth. |
|
45:19
I have not°
spoken°°
in secret,°
in a dark°
place°
of the earth:°
I said°°
not°
unto the seed°
of Jacob,°
Seek°°
ye me in vain:°
I°
Yahweh°
speak°°
righteousness,°
I declare°°
things that are right.° |
45:20 ¶
Assemble yourselves and come; take counsel together, ye that escape of the nations: they that set up wood, [even] their graven image, have no knowledge, nor they who pray to gods that do not save. |
|
45:20 ¶
Assemble°°
yourselves°
and come;°°
draw near°°
together,°
ye [that are] escaped°
of the nations:°
they have no knowledge°°°
that set up°°°
the wood°
of their graven image,°
and pray°°
unto°
an el°
[that] cannot°
save.°° |
45:21
If they will declare, let them draw nigh, that they may know together, who has caused these things to be heard from the beginning: then was it told you. I am God, and there is not another beside me; a just [God] and a Saviour; there is none but me. |
|
45:21
Tell°°
ye, and bring [them] near;°°
yea,°
let them take counsel°°
together:°
who°
hath declared°°
this°
from ancient time?°°
[who] hath told°°
it from that time?°°
[have] not°
I°
Yahweh?°
and [there is] no°
Elohim°
else°
beside°°
me; a just°
El°
and a Saviour;°°
[there is] none°
beside°
me. |
45:22
Turn ye to me, and ye shall be saved, ye that [come] from the end of the earth: I am God, and there is none other. |
|
45:22
Look°°
unto°
me, and be ye saved,°°
all°
the ends°
of the earth:°
for°
I°
[am] El,°
and [there is] none°
else.° |
45:23
By myself I swear, righteousness shall surely proceed out of my mouth; my words shall not be frustrated; that to me every knee shall bend, and every tongue shall swear by God, |
|
45:23
I have sworn°°
by myself, the word°
is gone out°°
of my mouth°°
[in] righteousness,°
and shall not°
return,°°
That°
unto me every°
knee°
shall bow,°°
every°
tongue°
shall swear.°° |
45:24
saying, Righteousness and glory shall come to him: and all that remove them from their borders shall be ashamed. |
|
45:24
Surely,°
shall [one] say,°°
in Yahweh°
have I righteousness°
and strength:°
[even] to°
him shall [men] come;°°
and all°
that are incensed°°
against him shall be ashamed.°° |
45:25
By the Lord shall they be justified, and in God shall all the seed of the children of Israel be glorified. |
|
45:25
In Yahweh°
shall all°
the seed°
of Israel°
be justified,°°
and shall glory.°° |
