Isaias

11 I, I am the Lord, and beside me is no Saviour.

12 Myself have told, and have saved, and have caused it to be heard, and there was no stranger among you; and ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.

13 Yea, from the beginning I am he: and there is none that delivereth out of my hand: I will work, and who shall turn it back?

14 Thus saith the Lord, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and will bring down all of them as fugitives, and the Chaldaeans in the ships of their shouting

15 I the Lord am your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.

16 Thus saith the Lord, which giveth a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters:

17 Which bringeth forth chariot and horse, force and warrior: they lie down together, they shall not rise: they are quenched, they are gone out like a wick:

18 Remember ye not the first things, neither consider the things of old.

19 Behold, I do a new thing; now is it springing forth; will ye not know it? Yea, I will set a way in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.

20 The beast of the field shall honour. me, jackals and (daughters of) ostriches : for I have given ’waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

21 The people which 1,Ι have formed for myself, they shall recount my praise.

22 And thou hast noi: called upon me, Jacob : for thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.

23 Thou hast not brought me the’lambs of thy burnt offerings, neither hast thou honoured me with tb’y sacrifices: I have not caused thee to serve with a (meal) offering,nor wearied thee with . incense.
