Isaiah 43:14–21

14  Thus saith the Lord, hyour redeemer, the Holy One of Israel;

For your sake I have sent to Babylon,

And have brought down all their †inobles,

And the kChaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.

15  I am the Lord, your Holy One,

The creator of Israel, your King.

16  Thus saith the Lord, lwhich maketh a way in the sea,

And a path in the mighty waters;

17  mWhich bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power;

They shall lie down together, they shall not rise:

They are extinct, nthey are quenched as tow.

18  oRemember ye not the former things,

Neither consider the things of old.

19  Behold, I will do pa new thing;

Now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it?

qI will even make a way in the wilderness,

And rrivers in sthe desert.

20  The beast of the field shall honour me,

tThe dragons and the ||†owls:

Because rI give waters in the wilderness,

And rivers in sthe desert,

rTo give drink to my people, my chosen.

21  uThis people have I formed for myself;

vThey shall shew forth wmy praise.
