Isaiah 43

1 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.

And now thus says the Lord God that made you, O Jacob, and formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you [by] your name; you are mine.

2 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.

And if you pass through water, I am with you; and the rivers shall not overflow you: and if you go through fire, you shall not be burned; the flame shall not burn you.

3 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.

For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, that saves you: I have made Egypt and Ethiopia your ransom, and [given] Soene for you.

4 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.

Since you became precious in my sight, you have become glorious, and I have loved you: and I will give men for you, and princes for your life.

5 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.

Fear not; for I am with you: I will bring your seed from the east, and will gather you from the west.

6 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.

I will say to the north, Bring; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from the [land] afar off, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;

7 Every [one who] is called by name my and [whom] for glory my I created him [whom] I formed him also I made him.

[even] all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him:

8 Bring out a people blind and [are] eyes there and deaf [people] and ears [belong] to them.

and I have brought forth the blind people; for [their] eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf.

9 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.

All the nations are gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the truth.

10 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.

Be you my witnesses, and I [too am] a witness, says the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe, and understand that I am [he]: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.

11 I I [am] Yahweh and there not except me [is] a deliverer.

I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour.

12 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.

I have declared, and have saved; I have reproached, and there was no strange [god] among you: you are my witnesses, and I am the Lord God,

13 Also from a day I [am] he and there not from hand my [is] a deliverer I act and who? will he revoke it.

even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back?

14 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.

Thus says the Lord God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; for your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships.

15 I [am] Yahweh holy [one] your [the] creator of Israel king your.

I am the Lord God, your Holy One, who have appointed for Israel your king.

16 Thus he says Yahweh who made in the sea a way and in waters mighty a path.

Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty water;

17 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.

who brought forth chariots and horse, and a mighty multitude: but they have lain down, and shall not rise: they are extinct, as quenched flax.

18 May not you remember former [things] and ancient [things] may not you consider.

Remember you not the former things, and consider not the ancient things.

19 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.

Behold, I [will] do new things, which shall presently spring forth, and you shall know them: and I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land.

20 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.

the beasts of the field shall bless me, the owls and young ostriches; for I have given water in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land, to give drink to my chosen race,

21 A people which I formed for myself praise my they will recount.

my people whom I have preserved to tell forth my praises.

22 And not me you have called on O Jacob for you have grown weary with me O Israel.

I have not now called you, O Jacob; neither have I made you weary, O Israel.

23 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.

You have not brought me the sheep of your whole burnt offering; neither have you glorified me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with sacrifices, neither have I wearied you with frankincense.

24 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.

Neither have you purchased for me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of your sacrifices: but you did stand before me in your sins, and in your iniquities.

25 I I [am] he [who is] wiping out transgressions your for own sake my and sins your not I will remember.

I, [even] I, am he that blots out your transgressions for mine own sake, and your sins; and I will not remember [them].

26 Cause to remember me let us enter into judgment together recount O you so that you may be justified.

But do you remember, and let us plead [together]: do you first confess your transgressions, that you may be justified.

27 Ancestor your first he sinned and spokesmen your they transgressed against me.

Your fathers first, and your princes have transgressed against me.

28 So I may profane [the] officials of holiness and I will give to total destruction Jacob and Israel to reviling words.

And the princes have defiled my sanctuaries: so I gave Jacob [to enemies] to destroy, and Israel to reproach.
