< Isaiah 43 >

1 And now, thus said YHWH, Your Creator, O Jacob, and your Fashioner, O Israel: Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you, I have called on your name—you [are] Mine.
And now thus he says Yahweh [who] created you O Jacob and [who] formed you O Israel may not you be afraid for I have redeemed you I have called [you] by name your [belong] to me you.
2 When you pass into waters, I [am] with you, And into floods, they do not overflow you, When you go into fire, you are not burned, And a flame does not burn against you.
If you will pass in the waters [will be] with you I and in the rivers not they will overflow you if you will walk in fire not you will be burned and flame not it will burn you.
3 For I—your God YHWH, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior, I have appointed Egypt your atonement, Cush and Seba in your stead.
For I [am] Yahweh God your [the] holy [one] of Israel deliverer your I have given ransom your Egypt Cush and Seba in place of you.
4 Since you were precious in My eyes, You were honored, and I have loved you, And I appoint men in your stead, And peoples instead of your life.
Because you are precious in view my you are honored and I I love you and I may give humankind in place of you and peoples in place of life your.
5 Do not be afraid, for I [am] with you, I bring in your seed from the east, And I gather you from the west.
May not you be afraid for [am] with you I from [the] east I will bring offspring your and from [the] west I will gather you.
6 I am saying to the north, “Give up,” And to the south, “Do not restrain.” Bring in My sons from afar, And My daughters from the end of the earth.
I will say to the north deliver up and to [the] south may not you withhold bring sons my from a distance and daughters my from [the] end of the earth.
7 Everyone who is called by My Name, Even for My glory I have created him, I have formed him, indeed, I have made him.
Every [one who] is called by name my and [whom] for glory my I created him [whom] I formed him also I made him.
8 He brought out a blind people who have eyes, And deaf ones who have ears.
Bring out a people blind and [are] eyes there and deaf [people] and ears [belong] to them.
9 All the nations have been gathered together, And the peoples are assembled, Who among them declares this, And causes us to hear former things? They give their witnesses, And they are declared righteous, And they hear and say, “Truth.”
All the nations they have assembled together so they may gather peoples who? among them will he declare this and former [things] will they proclaim to? us let them appoint witnesses their so they may be justified and they may hear and they may say truth.
10 You [are] My witnesses, a declaration of YHWH, And My servant whom I have chosen, So that you know and give credence to Me, And understand that I [am] He, Before Me there was no God formed, And after Me there is none.
You [are] witnesses my [the] utterance of Yahweh and servant my whom I have chosen so that you may know and you may believe me and you may perceive that I [am] he before me not it was formed a god and after me not it will be.
11 I [am] YHWH, And besides Me there is no savior.
I I [am] Yahweh and there not except me [is] a deliverer.
12 I declared, and saved, and proclaimed, And there is no stranger with you, And you [are] My witnesses, a declaration of YHWH, And I [am] God.
I I have declared and I have saved and I have proclaimed and there not among you [was] a strange [god] and you [are] witnesses my [the] utterance of Yahweh and I [am] God.
13 Even from the day I [am] He, And there is no deliverer from My hand, I work, and who turns it back?
Also from a day I [am] he and there not from hand my [is] a deliverer I act and who? will he revoke it.
14 Thus said YHWH, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: “I have sent to Babylon for your sake, And caused bars to descend—all of them, And the Chaldeans, whose song [is] in the ships.
Thus he says Yahweh redeemer your [the] holy [one] of Israel for sake your I have sent Babylon towards and I will bring down [as] fugitives all of them and [the] Chaldeans in ships shout of joy their.
15 I [am] YHWH, your Holy One, Creator of Israel, your King.”
I [am] Yahweh holy [one] your [the] creator of Israel king your.
16 Thus said YHWH, Who is giving a way in the sea, And a path in the strong waters.
Thus he says Yahweh who made in the sea a way and in waters mighty a path.
17 Who is bringing forth chariot and horse, A force, even a strong one: “They lie down together—they do not rise, They have been extinguished, They have been quenched as flax.”
Who sent out chariotry and horse[s] an army and a strong [one] together they lay down not they rose they were extinguished like wick they were quenched.
18 Do not remember former things, And do not consider ancient things.
May not you remember former [things] and ancient [things] may not you consider.
19 Behold, I am doing a new thing, now it springs up, Do you not know it? Indeed, I put a way in a wilderness, In a desolate place—floods.
Here I [am] about to do a new [thing] now it is springing up ¿ not do you know it also I will make in the wilderness a way in a desolate place rivers.
20 The beast of the field honors Me, Dragons and daughters of an ostrich, For I have given waters in a wilderness, Floods in a desolate place, To give drink to My people—My chosen.
It honors me [the] animal[s] of the field jackals and daughters of an ostrich for I have put in the wilderness water rivers in a desolate place to give drink to people my chosen one my.
21 I have formed this people for Myself, They recount My praise.
A people which I formed for myself praise my they will recount.
22 And you have not called Me, O Jacob, For you have been wearied of Me, O Israel,
And not me you have called on O Jacob for you have grown weary with me O Israel.
23 You have not brought to Me, The lamb of your burnt-offerings, And [with] your sacrifices you have not honored Me, I have not caused you to serve with a present, Nor wearied you with frankincense.
Not you have brought to me [the] sheep of burnt offerings your and sacrifices your not you have honored me not I have burdened you with offering[s] and not I have made weary you with frankincense.
24 You have not bought Me sweet cane with money, And have not filled Me [with] the fat of your sacrifices, Only—you have caused Me to serve with your sins, You have wearied Me with your iniquities.
Not you have bought for me for money calamus and [the] fat of sacrifices your not you have satisfied me nevertheless you have burdened me with sins your you have made weary me with iniquities your.
25 I [am] He who is blotting out Your transgressions for My own sake, And I do not remember your sins.
I I [am] he [who is] wiping out transgressions your for own sake my and sins your not I will remember.
26 Cause Me to remember—we are judged together, Declare that you may be justified.
Cause to remember me let us enter into judgment together recount O you so that you may be justified.
27 Your first father sinned, And your interpreters transgressed against Me,
Ancestor your first he sinned and spokesmen your they transgressed against me.
28 And I defile princes of the sanctuary, And I give Jacob to destruction, and Israel to revilings!
So I may profane [the] officials of holiness and I will give to total destruction Jacob and Israel to reviling words.
