| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 5 | Feare not, for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the East, and gather thee from the West. |
| 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; |
| 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. |
| 8 | Bring foorth the blinde people, that haue eyes; and the deafe that haue eares. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 11 | I, euen I am the Lord, and beside me there is no Sauiour. |
| 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. |
| 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? |
| 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. |
| 15 | I am the Lord, your Holy one, the Creatour of Israel, your King. |
| 16 | Thus sayth the Lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mightie waters: |
| 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. |
| 18 | Remember yee not the former things, neither consider the things of olde. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 21 | This people haue I formed for my selfe, they shall shewe foorth my praise. |
| 22 | But thou hast not called vpon me, O Iacob, but thou hast beene wearie of me, O Israel. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 25 | I, euen I am hee that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine owne sake, and will not remember thy sinnes. |
| 26 | Put mee in remembrance: let vs plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest bee iustified. |
| 27 | Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers haue transgressed against mee. |
| 28 | Therefore I haue profaned the princes of the Sanctuarie, and haue giuen Iacob to the curse, and Israel to reproches. |
