Hear me ,
O Jacob ,
and Israel whom I call ;
I am the first ,
and I (

endure for ever .
*
My hand also has founded the earth ,
and my right hand has fixed the sky :
I will call them ,
and they shall stand together .
*
And all shall be gathered ,
and shall hear :
who has told them these things ?
Out of love to thee I have fulfilled thy desire on Babylon ,
to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans .
*
I have spoken ,
I have called ,
I have brought him ,
and made his way prosperous .
*
Draw nigh to me ,
and hear ye these words ;
I have not spoken in secret from the beginning :
when it took place ,
there was I ,
and now the Lord ,
even the Lord ,
and his Spirit ,
hath sent me .
*
Thus saith the Lord that delivered thee ,
the Holy One of Israel ;
I am thy God ,
I have shewn thee how thou shouldest find the way wherein thou shouldest walk .
*
And if thou hadst hearkened to my commandments ,
then would thy peace have been like a river ,
and thy righteousness as a wave of the sea .
*
Thy seed also would have been as the sand ,
and the offspring of thy belly as the dust of the ground :
neither now shalt thou by any means be utterly destroyed ,
neither shall thy name perish before me .
*
Go forth of Babylon ,
thou that fleest from the Chaldeans :
utter aloud a voice of joy ,
and let this be made known ,
proclaim it to the end of the earth ;
say ye ,
The Lord hath delivered his servant Jacob .
*
And if they shall thirst ,
he shall lead them through the desert ;
he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock :
the rock shall be cloven ,
and the water shall flow forth ,
and my people shall drink .
