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:

[*](9. ‘produce,’ lit. ‘give’: ‘appear righteous,’ or, ‘be justified.’ So xlv. 25, c.)[*](13. ‘from the beginning,’ lit. ‘from the day.)

236

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.
