Isaiah 43 KJV

1. 43:1  But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
2. 43:2  When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3. 43:3  For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
4. 43:4  Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
5. 43:5  Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
6. 43:6  I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
7. 43:7  Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
8. 43:8  Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
9. 43:9  Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.
10. 43:10  Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11. 43:11  I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
12. 43:12  I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.
13. 43:13  Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
14. 43:14  Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.
15. 43:15  I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.
16. 43:16  Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
17. 43:17  Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
18. 43:18  Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19. 43:19  Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20. 43:20  The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
21. 43:21  This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
22. 43:22  But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
23. 43:23  Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
24. 43:24  Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.
25. 43:25  I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
26. 43:26  Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
27. 43:27  Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
28. 43:28  Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
