Isaiah chapter 42

Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
BeholdH2005 my servant,H5650 whom I uphold;H8551 my elect,H972 in whom my soulH5315 delights;H7521 I have putH5414 my spiritH7307 on him: he shall bringH3318 forthH3318 judgmentH4941 to the Gentiles.H1471
2
He shall not cry,H6817 norH3808 liftH5375 up, norH3808 cause his voiceH6963 to be heardH8085 in the street.H2351
3
A bruisedH7533 reedH7070 shall he not break,H7665 and the smokingH3544 flaxH6594 shall he not quench:H3518 he shall bringH3318 forthH3318 judgmentH4941 to truth.H571
4
He shall not failH3543 norH3808 be discouraged,H7533 tillH5704 he have setH7760 judgmentH4941 in the earth:H776 and the islesH339 shall waitH3176 for his law.H8451
5
ThusH3541 saidH559 GodH410 the LORD,H3068 he that createdH1254 the heavens,H8064 and stretchedH5186 them out; he that spreadH7554 forth the earth,H776 and that which comesH6631 out of it; he that givesH5414 breathH5397 to the peopleH5971 on it, and spiritH7307 to them that walkH1980 therein:
6
I the LORDH3068 have calledH7121 you in righteousness,H6664 and will holdH2388 your hand,H3027 and will keepH5341 you, and giveH5414 you for a covenantH1285 of the people,H5971 for a lightH216 of the Gentiles;H1471
7
To openH6491 the blindH5787 eyes,H5869 to bringH3318 out the prisonersH616 from the prison,H4525 and them that sitH3427 in darknessH2822 out of the prisonH3608 house.H1004
8
I am the LORD:H3068 that is my name:H8034 and my gloryH3519 will I not giveH5414 to another,H312 neither my praiseH8416 to gravenH6456 images.
9
Behold,H2009 the formerH7223 things are comeH935 to pass, and newH2319 things do I declare:H5046 beforeH2962 they springH6779 forth I tellH8085 you of them.
10
SingH7891 to the LORDH3068 a newH2319 song,H7892 and his praiseH8416 from the endH7097 of the earth,H776 you that goH3381 downH3381 to the sea,H3220 and allH4393 that is therein;H4393 the isles,H339 and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof.
11
Let the wildernessH4057 and the citiesH5892 thereof liftH5375 up their voice, the villagesH2691 that KedarH6938 does inhabit:H3427 let the inhabitantsH3427 of the rockH5553 sing,H7442 let them shoutH6681 from the topH7218 of the mountains.H2022
12
Let them giveH7760 gloryH3519 to the LORD,H3068 and declareH5046 his praiseH8416 in the islands.H339
13
The LORDH3068 shall goH3318 forthH3318 as a mightyH1368 man,H376 he shall stirH5782 up jealousyH7068 like a manH376 of war:H4421 he shall cry,H7321 yes,H637 roar;H6873 he shall prevailH1396 againstH5921 his enemies.H341
14
I have longH5769 time heldH2814 my peace;H2814 I have been still,H2790 and refrainedH662 myself: now will I cryH6463 like a travailingH3205 woman; I will destroyH5395 and devourH7602 atH3162 once.H3162
15
I will makeH7760 wasteH2717 mountainsH2022 and hills,H1389 and dryH3001 up allH3605 their herbs;H6212 and I will makeH7760 the riversH5103 islands,H339 and I will dryH3001 up the pools.H98
16
And I will bringH3212 the blindH5787 by a wayH1870 that they knewH3045 not; I will leadH1869 them in pathsH5410 that they have not known:H3045 I will makeH7760 darknessH4285 lightH216 beforeH6440 them, and crookedH4625 things straight.H4334 TheseH428 thingsH1697 will I doH6213 to them, and not forsakeH5800 them.
17
They shall be turnedH5472 back,H268 they shall be greatly ashamed,H954 that trustH982 in gravenH6459 images, that sayH559 to the moltenH4541 images, You are our gods.H430
18
Hear,H8085 you deaf;H2795 and look,H5027 you blind,H5787 that you may see.H7200
19
WhoH4310 is blind,H5787 but my servant?H5650 or deaf,H2795 as my messengerH4397 that I sent?H7971 whoH4310 is blindH5787 as he that is perfect,H7999 and blindH5787 as the LORD'sH3068 servant?H5650
20
SeeingH7200 manyH7227 things, but you observeH8104 not; openingH6491 the ears,H241 but he hearsH8085 not.
21
The LORDH3068 is wellH2654 pleasedH2654 for his righteousness'H6664 sake;H4616 he will magnifyH1431 the law,H8451 and make it honorable.H142
22
But thisH1931 is a peopleH5971 robbedH962 and spoiled;H8154 they are allH3605 of them snaredH6351 in holes,H2356 and they are hidH2244 in prisonH3608 houses:H1004 they are for a prey,H957 and noneH369 delivers;H5337 for a spoil,H4933 and noneH369 said,H559 Restore.H7725
23
WhoH4310 among you will give earH238 to this?H2063 who will listenH7181 and hearH8085 for the timeH268 to come?
24
WhoH4310 gaveH5414 JacobH3290 for a spoil,H4882 and IsraelH3478 to the robbers?H962 did not the LORD,H3068 he against whomH2098 we have sinned?H2398 for they wouldH14 not walkH1980 in his ways,H1870 neitherH3808 were they obedientH8085 to his law.H8451
25
Therefore he has pouredH8210 on him the furyH2534 of his anger,H639 and the strengthH5807 of battle:H4421 and it has setH7760 him on fireH3857 roundH5439 about, yet he knewH3045 not; and it burnedH1197 him, yet he laidH7760 it not to heart.H3820
