BUT now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019253">2</a>. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019254">3</a>. For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019255">4</a>. Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019256">5</a>. Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019257">6</a>. I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019258">7</a>. Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019259">8</a>. Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019260">9</a>. Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things?  let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019261">10</a>. Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019262">11</a>. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019263">12</a>. I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019264">13</a>. Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019265">14</a>. Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019266">15</a>. I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019267">16</a>. Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019268">17</a>. Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019269">18</a>. Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019270">19</a>. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019271">20</a>. The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019272">21</a>. This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019273">22</a>. But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019274">23</a>. Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices.  I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019275">24</a>. Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019276">25</a>. I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019277">26</a>. Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019278">27</a>. Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1019279">28</a>. Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.</li>
