Book 23 : ISAIAH - Chapter 042
042:001
He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard
in the street
042:002
A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall
he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth
042:003
He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set
judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law
042:004
Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and
stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that
which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people
upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein
042:005
I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold
thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant
of the people, for a light of the Gentiles
042:006
To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the
prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house
042:007
I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give
to another, neither my praise to graven images
042:008
Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do
I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them
042:009
Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of
the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is
therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof
042:010
Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice,
the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of
the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains
042:011
Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in
the islands
042:012
The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up
jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall
prevail against his enemies
042:013
I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and
refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I
will destroy and devour at once
042:014
I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their
herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up
the pools
042:015
And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will
lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make
darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These
things will I do unto them, and not forsake them
042:016
They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that
trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are
our gods
042:017
Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see
042:018
Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I
sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the
LORD's servant
042:019
Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears,
but he heareth not
042:020
The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will
magnify the law, and make it honourable
042:021
But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them
snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are
for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith,
Restore
042:022
Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear
for the time to come
042:023
Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not
the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not
walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law
042:024
Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and
the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round
about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not
to heart
