Book 23 : ISAIAH - Chapter 045
045:001
I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I
will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the
bars of iron
045:002
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden
riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the
LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel
045:003
For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have
even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though
thou hast not known me
045:004
I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside
me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me
045:005
That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the
west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there
is none else
045:006
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and
create evil: I the LORD do all these things
045:007
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down
righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth
salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the
LORD have created it
045:008
Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd
strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to
him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath
no hands
045:009
Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou?
or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth
045:010
Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker,
Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning
the work of my hands command ye me
045:011
I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my
hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have
I commanded
045:012
I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all
his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my
captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts
045:013
Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of
Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over
unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after
thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down
unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, saying,
Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no
God
045:014
Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel,
the Saviour
045:015
They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they
shall go to confusion together that are makers of idols
045:016
But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting
salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world
without end
045:017
For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself
that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he
created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the
LORD; and there is none else
045:018
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I
said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the
LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right
045:019
Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are
escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the
wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot
save
045:020
Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel
together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath
told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no
God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none
beside me
045:021
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for
I am God, and there is none else
045:022
I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in
righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee
shall bow, every tongue shall swear
045:023
Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and
strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are
incensed against him shall be ashamed
045:024
In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and
shall glory
