* But now thus saith the LORD that created thee , O Jacob , and he that formed thee , O Israel , Do not fear , for I have redeemed thee , I have named thee ; Thou [art ] mine . * When thou dost pass through the waters , I [will be ] with thee ; and through the rivers , they shall not overflow thee ; when thou dost walk through the fire , thou shalt not be burned ; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee . * For I [am ] the LORD thy God , the Holy One of Israel , thy Keeper ; I gave Egypt [for ] thy ransom , Ethiopia and Seba for thee . * Because thou wast precious in my sight , thou wast worthy of honour , and I have loved thee . * Do not fear ; for I [am ] with thee : I will bring thy generation from the east and gather thee from the west ; * I will say to the north [wind ], Give up , and to the south , Do not keep back ; bring my sons from far and my daughters from the ends of the earth * [even ] every one that is called by my name , for I have created them for my glory ; I have formed them ; [yea ], I have made them . * Bring forth the people that is blind that have eyes and the deaf that have ears . * Let all the Gentiles be gathered together as one , and let the peoples be joined ; who among them can declare this and show us former things ? Let them bring forth their witnesses that they may be justified or let them hear and say , [It is ] truth . * Ye [are ] my witnesses , saith the LORD , and my servant whom I have chosen that ye may know and believe me and understand that I [am ] he ; before me there was no God formed , neither shall there be after me . * I , [even ] I , [am ] the LORD ; and beside me [there is ] no saviour . * I have declared and have saved , and I have showed when [there was ] no strange [god ] among you ; therefore ye [are ] my witnesses , saith the LORD , that I [am ] God . * Even before the day [was ] I existed ; and [there is ] no one that can deliver out of my hand ; [if ] I work , who shall hinder it ? * Thus saith the LORD , your redeemer , the Holy One of Israel ; For your sake I have sent to Babylon and caused fugitives to descend unto all of them and [the ] clamour of Chaldeans in the ships . * I [am ] the LORD , your Holy One , the creator of Israel , your King . * Thus saith the LORD , who makes a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters ; * [when ] he brings forth the chariot and horse , the army and the power ; they shall fall together , and never rise ; they are extinct ; they are quenched as wick . * Do not remember the former things , nor consider the things of old . * Behold , I will do a new thing ; it shall come to light quickly ; shall ye not know it ? I will again make a way in the wilderness [and ] rivers in the desert . * The beast of the field shall honour me , the dragons and the owls because I give waters in the wilderness [and ] rivers in the desert to give drink to my people , my chosen . * This people I have formed for myself ; they shall show forth my praise . * But thou hast not called upon me , O Jacob ; but thou hast been weary of me , O Israel . * Thou hast not brought me the animals of thy burnt offerings ; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices . I have not caused thee to serve with an offering , nor wearied thee with incense . * Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money , neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices , but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins ; thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities . * I , [even ] I , [am ] he that uproots thy rebellions for mine own sake and will not remember thy sins . * Cause me to remember ; let us enter into judgment together ; declare , thou , that it may be put to thy account . * Thy first father sinned , and thy teachers have transgressed against me . * Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary and have set up Jacob as anathema , and Israel as a reproach .:
