< Isaiah 45 >

1 Thus saith Jehovah to his anointed, To Cyrus, whom I hold by his right hand, To subdue nations before him, And ungird the loins of kings; To open before him the two-leaved gates, And the doors shall not be shut.
Thus he says Yahweh to anointed his to Cyrus whom I have taken hold on right [hand] his to subdue before him nations and [the] loins of kings I will loosen to open before him doors and gates not they will be shut.
2 I will go before thee, And make the high places plain; I will break in pieces the gates of brass, And cut in sunder the bars of iron.
I before you I will go and [the] mountainous land (I will make smooth *Q(K)*) doors of bronze I will break and bars of iron I will cut through.
3 I will give thee the treasures of darkness, And hidden riches of secret places, That thou mayst know that I am Jehovah Who calleth thee by name, the God of Israel.
And I will give to you treasures of darkness and hidden treasures of secret places so that you may know that I [am] Yahweh who calls by name your [the] God of Israel.
4 For the sake of Jacob, my servant, And Israel, my chosen, I have called thee by thy name; I have spoken to thee as a friend, though thou hast not known me.
For [the] sake of servant my Jacob and Israel chosen one my and I summoned you by name your I will give a title you and not you know me.
5 I am Jehovah, and none else; There is no God besides me; I have girded thee, though thou hast not known me.
I [am] Yahweh and there not [is] yet besides me there not [is] a god I will gird you and not you know me.
6 That men may know from the rising of the sun, And from the West, that there is none besides me; I am Jehovah, and none else.
So that they may know from [the] rising of [the] sun (and from setting place its *LAH(b)*) that nothing [is] apart from me I [am] Yahweh and there not [is] yet.
7 I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I, Jehovah, do all these things.
[who] forms Light and [who] creates darkness [who] brings about well-being and [who] creates calamity I [am] Yahweh [who] does all these [things].
8 Pour forth, ye heavens, from above; Ye clouds, shower down prosperity! Let the earth open, and bring forth salvation; Yea, let righteousness spring up together! I, Jehovah, create it.
Drip down O heaven above and clouds let them flow righteousness let it open up [the] earth so they may bear fruit salvation and righteousness let it cause to sprout together I Yahweh I have created it.
9 Woe to him that contendeth with his Maker! A potsherd of the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? Or thy work say of thee, He hath no hands?
Woe to! [one who] contends with [the one who] formed him a potsherd with potsherds of [the] ground ¿ does it say clay to [the one who] forms it what? are you making and work your not hands [belong] to him.
10 Woe to him that saith to his father, Why dost thou beget? Or to his mother, Why dost thou bring forth?
Woe to! [one who] says to a father what? are you fathering and to a woman what? are you in labor with!
11 Thus saith Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask of me concerning things to come; My children, the work of my hands, leave them to me!
Thus he says Yahweh [the] holy [one] of Israel and [the] [one who] formed it the coming [things] ask me on children my and on [the] work of hands my you command me.
12 I made the earth, And created man upon it; My hands spread out the heavens, And all their host did I arrange.
I I made [the] earth and humankind on it I created I hands my they stretched out [the] heavens and all host their I commanded.
13 I have raised him up for salvation, And I will make all his ways plain; He shall build my city, and release my captives, Not for price, and not for ransom, Saith Jehovah of hosts.
I I have stirred up him in righteousness and all ways his I will make smooth he he will build city my and exile[s] my he will let go not for hire and not for a bribe he says Yahweh of hosts.
14 Thus saith Jehovah: The wealth of Egypt and the merchandise of the Ethiopians and Sabeans, men of stature, Shall come over to thee, and be thine; They shall follow thee; in chains shall they pass along; They shall fall down to thee, and make supplication to thee: “In thee alone is God, and there is none else; There is no other God.”
Thus - he says Yahweh [the] produce of Egypt and [the] traffic of Cush and [the] Sabeans people of stature to you they will pass over and to you they will belong behind you they will walk in fetters they will pass over and to you they will bow down to you they will pray surely [is] among you God and there not [is] yet there not [are] gods.
15 Truly thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the saviour!
Truly you [are] a God [who] hides himself O God of Israel deliverer.
16 They shall all be ashamed and confounded, They shall go to confusion together, That are makers of idols.
They will be ashamed and also they will be put to shame all of them alike they will walk in ignominy craftsmen of images.
17 But Israel shall be saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation; Ye shall never be ashamed, nor confounded.
Israel it has been saved by Yahweh a salvation of everlastingness not you will be ashamed and not you will be put to shame until everlastingness of perpetuity.
18 For thus saith Jehovah, who created the heavens; The God that formed the earth and made it; he that made it firm; He created it not in vain; he formed it to be inhabited: I am Jehovah, and none else.
For thus he says Yahweh [who] created the heavens he [is] God [who] formed the earth and [who] made it he he established it not a wasteland he created it to dwell in he formed it I [am] Yahweh and there not [is] yet.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth; I have not said to the race of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain! I, Jehovah, speak truth; I declare that which is right.
Not in secrecy I spoke in a place of a land of darkness not I said to [the] offspring of Jacob emptiness seek me I Yahweh [am] speaking righteousness [I am] declaring uprightness.
20 Assemble yourselves and come; Gather yourselves together, ye that are escaped of the nations! They are without understanding, who carry about with them the wood of their graven image, And pray to a god that cannot save.
Gather together and come draw near together O fugitives of the nations not they know those [who] carry [the] wood of idol their and [those who] pray to a god [which] not it will save.
21 Proclaim ye, and bring them near, And let them take counsel together: Who hath made this known from ancient time? Who hath declared it of old? Is it not I, Jehovah, besides whom there is no God? A God that uttereth truth, and giveth salvation; there is none besides me.
Declare and bring near also let them take counsel together who? did he proclaim this from antiquity from then did he declare? it ¿ not [was it] I Yahweh and there not again [is] a god except me [is] a God righteous and a deliverer there not besides me.
22 Look to me, and be saved, all ye ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is none else.
Turn to me and be saved O all [the] ends of [the] earth for I [am] God and there not [is] yet.
23 By myself have I sworn, The truth hath gone from my mouth, The word, that shall not return, That to me every knee shall bow, That to me every tongue shall swear.
By myself I swear it goes forth from mouth my righteousness a word and not it will return that to me it will bow down every knee it will swear every tongue.
24 “Only in Jehovah,” shall men say, “Is salvation and strength; To him shall come and be put to shame, All that are incensed against him.”
Only [are] in Yahweh of me anyone will say righteousness and strength to him everyone will go and they may be ashamed all those [who] are angry with him.
25 Through Jehovah shall all the race of Israel be delivered, And in him shall they glory.
By Yahweh they will be justified and they may boast all [the] offspring of Israel.
