43:1 But now thus sayeth the Lord that created thee, O Iacob, and hee that formed thee, O Israel; Feare not: for I haue redeemed thee, I haue called thee by thy name, thou art mine. 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I wil be with thee; and through the riuers, they shal not ouerflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burnt; neither shall the flame kindle vpon thee. 43:3 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy one of Israel, thy Sauiour: I gaue Egypt for thy ransome, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 43:4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast bene honourable, and I haue loued thee: therefore will I giue men for thee, and people for thy life. 43:5 Feare not, for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the East, and gather thee from the West. 43:6 I wil say to the North, Giue vp; and to the South, Keepe not backe: bring my sonnes from farre, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; 43:7 Euen euery one that is called by my Name: for I haue created him for my glory, I haue formed him, yea I haue made him. 43:8 Bring foorth the blinde people, that haue eyes; and the deafe that haue eares. 43:9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew vs former things Let them bring foorth their witnesses, that they may be iustified: or let them heare, and say, It is trueth. 43:10 Yee are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my seruant whom I haue chosen: that ye may know and beleeue me, and vnderstand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 43:11 I, euen I am the Lord, and beside me there is no Sauiour. 43:12 I haue declared, and haue saued, and I haue shewed, when there was no strange God among you: therefore yee are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God. 43:13 Yea before the day was, I am hee; and there is none that can deliuer out of my hand: I will worke, and who shall let it 43:14 Thus sayth the Lord your Redeemer, the Holy one of Israel; For your sake I haue sent to Babylon, and haue brought downe all their nobles, and the Caldeans, whose crie is in the shippes. 43:15 I am the Lord, your Holy one, the Creatour of Israel, your King. 43:16 Thus sayth the Lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mightie waters: 43:17 Which bringeth foorth the charet and horse, the armie and the power: they shall lie downe together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as towe. 43:18 Remember yee not the former things, neither consider the things of olde. 43:19 Behold, I will doe a new thing: now it shall spring foorth, shall yee not know it I will euen make a way in the wildernesse, and riuers in the desert. 43:20 The beast of the field shall honor mee, the dragons and the owles, because I giue waters in the wildernesse, and riuers in the desert, to giue drinke to my people, my chosen. 43:21 This people haue I formed for my selfe, they shall shewe foorth my praise. 43:22 But thou hast not called vpon me, O Iacob, but thou hast beene wearie of me, O Israel. 43:23 Thou hast not brought mee the small cattell of thy burnt offrings, neither hast thou honoured mee with thy sacrifices. I haue not caused thee to serue with an offring, nor wearied thee with incense. 43:24 Thou hast bought mee no sweete cane with money, neither hast thou filled mee with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made mee to serue with thy sins, thou hast wearied mee with thine iniquities. 43:25 I, euen I am hee that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine owne sake, and will not remember thy sinnes. 43:26 Put mee in remembrance: let vs plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest bee iustified. 43:27 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers haue transgressed against mee. 43:28 Therefore I haue profaned the princes of the Sanctuarie, and haue giuen Iacob to the curse, and Israel to reproches.
