Isaiah 42:10-17 - A Song Of Praise To Yahweh

¹⁰ Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, and his praise from the extremity of the earth, ye going down to the sea, and its fulness; the isles and their inhabitants. ¹¹ The desert and its cities shall lift up, the enclosures shall Kedar inhabit: they inhabiting the rock shall shout for joy, from the head of the mountains they shall shout for joy. ¹² They shall set glory to Jehovah, and they shall announce' his praise in the islands. ¹³ Jehovah as a strong one shall go forth; as a man of war he shall raise up jealousy: he shall shout, also he shall cry aloud; he shall be strong against his enemies.

¹⁴ I was silent of old; I will be still, I will restrain myself: as she bringing forth I will cry out; I will lay waste and snuff up together. ¹⁵ I will lay waste mountains and hills, and I will dry up all their green herbage; and I set the rivers for islands, and I will dry up the pools. ¹⁶ I brought the blind by a way they knew not; and I will cause them to tread in beaten paths they knew not: I will set darkness for light before them, and crooked ways into straightness; these words I did them, and I forsook them not ¹⁷ They were turned back, they will be ashamed with shame, trusting in the carved image, saying to the molten image, Thou our God.
