Isaiah 43

1 The LORD comforteth the Church with his promises. 8 He appealeth to the people for witness of his omnipotency. 14 He foretelleth them the destruction of Babylon, 18 and his wonderful deliverance of his people. 22 He reproveth the people as inexcusable.

 43:1 ¶ But now x6258 thus x3541 sayeth 559 z8804 the LORD 3068 that created 1254 z8802 thee, O Iacob, 3290 and hee that formed 3335 z8802 thee, O Israel; 3478 Feare 3372 z8799 not: x408 for x3588 I haue redeemed 1350 z8804 thee, I haue called 7121 z8804 [thee] by thy name, 8034 thou x859 art mine.

 43:2 When x3588 thou passest through 5674 z8799 the waters, 4325 I x589 [wil be] with x854 thee; and through the riuers, 5104 they shal not x3808 ouerflow 7857 z8799 thee: when x3588 thou walkest y3212 z8799 x1980 through 1119 the fire, 784 thou shalt not x3808 be burnt; 3554 z8735 neither x3808 shall the flame 3852 kindle 1197 z8799 vpon thee.

 43:3 For x3588 I x589 [am] the LORD 3068 thy God, 430 the Holy one 6918 of Israel, 3478 thy Sauiour: 3467 z8688 I gaue 5414 z8804 Egypt 4714 for thy ransome, 3724 Ethiopia 3568 and Seba 5434 for x8478 thee.

 43:4 Since x4480 x834 thou wast precious 3365 z8804 in my sight, 5869 thou hast bene honourable, 3513 z8738 and I x589 haue loued 157 z8804 thee: therefore will I giue 5414 z8799 men 120 for x8478 thee, and people 3816 for x8478 thy life. 5315

 43:5 Feare 3372 z8799 not, x408 for x3588 I x589 [am] with x854 thee: I will bring 935 z8686 thy seed 2233 from the East, 4217 x4480 and gather 6908 z8762 thee from the West. 4628 x4480

 43:6 I wil say 559 z8799 to the North, 6828 Giue vp; 5414 z8798 and to the South, 8486 Keepe not backe: 3607 z8799 x408 bring 935 z8685 my sonnes 1121 from farre, 7350 x4480 and my daughters 1323 from the ends 7097 x4480 of the earth; 776

 43:7 [Euen] euery one 3605 that is called 7121 z8737 by my Name: 8034 for I haue created 1254 z8804 him for my glory, 3519 I haue formed 3335 z8804 him, yea x637 I haue made 6213 z8804 him.

 43:8 ¶ Bring foorth 3318 z8685 the blinde 5787 people, 5971 that haue 3426 eyes; 5869 and the deafe 2795 that haue eares. 241

 43:9 Let all x3605 the nations 1471 be gathered 6908 z8738 together, 3162 and let the people 3816 be assembled: 622 z8735 who x4310 among them can declare 5046 z8686 this, x2063 and shew 8085 z8686 vs former things? 7223 Let them bring foorth 5414 z8799 their witnesses, 5707 that they may be iustified: 6663 z8799 or let them heare, 8085 z8799 and say, 559 z8799 [It is] trueth. 571

 43:10 Yee x859 [are] my witnesses, 5707 saith 5002 z8803 the LORD, 3068 and my seruant 5650 whom x834 I haue chosen: 977 z8804 that x4616 ye may know 3045 z8799 and beleeue 539 z8686 me, and vnderstand 995 z8799 that x3588 I x589 [am] he: x1931 before 6440 me there was no x3808 God 410 formed, 3335 z8738 neither x3808 shall there be x1961 after 310 me.

 43:11 I, x595 [euen] I x595 [am] the LORD, 3068 and beside 1107 x4480 me there is no x369 Sauiour. 3467 z8688

 43:12 I x595 haue declared, 5046 z8689 and haue saued, 3467 z8689 and I haue shewed, 8085 z8689 when there was no x369 strange 2114 z8801 [God] among you: therefore yee x859 [are] my witnesses, 5707 saith 5002 z8803 the LORD, 3068 that I x589 [am] God. 410

 43:13 Yea x1571 before the day 3117 x4480 [was], I x589 [am] hee; x1931 and there is none x369 that can deliuer 5337 z8688 out of my hand: 3027 x4480 I will worke, 6466 z8799 and who x4310 shall let 7725 z8686 it?

 43:14 ¶ Thus x3541 sayth 559 z8804 the LORD 3068 your Redeemer, 1350 z8802 the Holy one 6918 of Israel; 3478 For your sake x4616 I haue sent 7971 z8765 to Babylon, 894 and haue brought downe 3381 z8689 all x3605 their nobles, 1281 and the Caldeans, 3778 whose crie 7440 is in the shippes. 591

 43:15 I x589 [am] the LORD, 3068 your Holy one, 6918 the Creatour 1254 z8802 of Israel, 3478 your King. 4428

 43:16 Thus x3541 sayth 559 z8804 the LORD, 3068 which maketh 5414 z8802 a way 1870 in the sea, 3220 and a path 5410 in the mightie 5794 waters: 4325

 43:17 Which bringeth foorth 3318 z8688 the charet 7393 and horse, 5483 the armie 2428 and the power: 5808 they shall lie downe 7901 z8799 together, 3162 they shall not x1077 rise: 6965 z8799 they are extinct, 1846 z8804 they are quenched 3518 z8804 as towe. 6594

 43:18 ¶ Remember 2142 z8799 yee not x408 the former things, 7223 neither x408 consider 995 z8709 the things of olde. 6931

 43:19 Behold, x2009 I will doe 6213 z8802 a new thing: 2319 now x6258 it shall spring foorth, 6779 z8799 shall yee not x3808 know 3045 z8799 it? I will euen x637 make 7760 z8799 a way 1870 in the wildernesse, 4057 [and] riuers 5104 in the desert. 3452

 43:20 The beast 2416 of the field 7704 shall honor 3513 z8762 mee, the dragons y8577 x8565 and the owles, 1323 3284 because x3588 I giue 5414 z8804 waters 4325 in the wildernesse, 4057 [and] riuers 5104 in the desert, 3452 to giue drinke 8248 z8687 to my people, 5971 my chosen. 972

 43:21 This 2098 people 5971 haue I formed 3335 z8804 for my selfe, they shall shewe foorth 5608 z8762 my praise. 8416

 43:22 ¶ But thou hast not x3808 called y7121 z8804 vpon x7121 me, O Iacob, 3290 but x3588 thou hast beene wearie 3021 z8804 of me, O Israel. 3478

 43:23 Thou hast not x3808 brought 935 z8689 mee the small cattell 7716 of thy burnt offrings, 5930 neither x3808 hast thou honoured 3513 z8765 mee with thy sacrifices. 2077 I haue not x3808 caused thee to serue 5647 z8689 with an offring, 4503 nor x3808 wearied 3021 z8689 thee with incense. 3828

 43:24 Thou hast bought 7069 z8804 mee no x3808 sweete cane 7070 with money, 3701 neither x3808 hast thou filled 7301 z8689 mee with the fat 2459 of thy sacrifices: 2077 but x389 thou hast made mee to serue 5647 z8689 with thy sins, 2403 thou hast wearied 3021 z8689 mee with thine iniquities. 5771

 43:25 I, x595 [euen] I x595 [am] hee x1931 [that] blotteth out 4229 z8802 thy transgressions 6588 for mine owne sake, x4616 and will not x3808 remember 2142 z8799 thy sinnes. 2403

 43:26 Put mee in remembrance: 2142 z8685 let vs plead 8199 z8735 together: 3162 declare 5608 z8761 thou, x859 that x4616 thou mayest bee iustified. 6663 z8799

 43:27 Thy first 7223 father 1 hath sinned, 2398 z8804 and thy teachers 3887 z8688 haue transgressed 6586 z8804 against mee.

 43:28 Therefore I haue profaned 2490 z8762 the princes 8269 of the Sanctuarie, 6944 and haue giuen 5414 z8799 Iacob 3290 to the curse, 2764 and Israel 3478 to reproches. 1421
