Isaiah 43:1-13 - The Restorer Of Israel

¹ And now, thus said Jehovah creating thee, O Jacob, and forming thee, O Israel, Thou shalt not fear, for I redeemed thee; I called by thy name; thou art to me. ² When thou shalt pass through the waters, I with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou shalt go through fire thou shalt not be burnt, and the flame shall not consume thee. ³ For I Jehovah thy God, the Holy One of Israel, saving thee: I gave Egypt expiating thee, Cush and Seba instead of thee. ⁴ From that thou wert precious in mine eyes, thou wert honored, and I loved thee: and I will give man instead of thee, and peoples instead of thy soul. ⁵ Thou shalt not fear, for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the sunrisings, and from the west I will gather thee. ⁶ Say to the north, Thou shalt give, and to the south thou shalt not withhold: bring in my sons from far off, and my daughters from the extremities of the earth; ⁷ All being called by name: and I created him; for my glory I formed him; also I made him.

⁸ Bring forth the blind people, and there are eyes; and the deaf, and ears to them. ⁹ Gather all nations together, and people shall be collected: who among them shall announce this, and will they cause us to hear former things? shall they give their witnesses, and be justified? and will they hear, and say, Truth ¹⁰ Ye my witnesses, says Jehovah, and my servants whom I chose: so that ye shall know and trust to me, and understand that I am he: before me was no God formed, and after me shall be none. ¹¹ I, I, Jehovah, and none saving besides me. ¹² I announced and I saved, and I caused to hear, and no stranger among you: and ye are witnesses, says Jehovah, and I am God. ¹³ Also from the day I am he, and none delivering from my hand: I will do and who shall turn it back?
