*
Thus says Yahweh ,
your Redeemer ,
the Holy One of Israel : "
For your sake ,
I have sent to Babylon ,
and I will bring all of them down as fugitives ,
even the Chaldeans ,
in the ships of their rejoicing .
*
I am Yahweh ,
your Holy One ,
the Creator of Israel ,
your King ."
*
Thus says Yahweh ,
who makes a way in the sea ,
and a path in the mighty waters ;
*
who brings forth the chariot and horse ,
the army and the mighty man (
they lie down together ,
they shall not rise ;
they are extinct ,
they are quenched like a wick ):
* "
Don '
t remember the former things ,
and don '
t consider the things of old .
*
Behold ,
I will do a new thing .
It springs forth now .
Don '
t you know it ?
I will even make a way in the wilderness ,
and rivers in the desert .
*
The animals of the field shall honor me ,
the jackals and the ostriches ;
because I give water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert ,
to give drink to my people ,
my chosen ,
*
the people which I formed for myself ,
that they might set forth my praise .
*
Yet you have not called on me ,
Jacob ;
but you have been weary of me ,
Israel .
*
You have not brought me of your sheep for burnt offerings ;
neither have you honored me with your sacrifices .
I have not burdened you with offerings ,
nor wearied you with frankincense .
*
You have bought me no sweet cane with money ,
nor have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices ;
but you have burdened me with your sins .
You have wearied me with your iniquities .
*
I ,
even I ,
am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake ;
and I will not remember your sins .
*
Put me in remembrance .
Let us plead together .
Set forth your case ,
that you may be justified .
*
Your first father sinned ,
and your teachers have transgressed against me .
*
Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary ;
and I will make Jacob a curse ,
and Israel an insult ."
