WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:01.260 Chapter 43. 00:02.400 --> 00:07.640 But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, 00:07.740 --> 00:13.120 O Israel, Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name, 00:13.480 --> 00:14.300 thou art mine. 00:14.740 --> 00:18.840 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee, and through the 00:18.840 --> 00:20.920 rivers, they shall not overflow thee. 00:21.420 --> 00:25.860 When thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall 00:25.860 --> 00:31.340 the flame kindle upon thee, For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, 00:31.700 --> 00:32.400 thy Saviour. 00:32.980 --> 00:39.320 I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Saba for thee, since thou wast precious in 00:39.320 --> 00:39.900 my sight. 00:40.480 --> 00:43.140 Thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee. 00:43.700 --> 00:47.260 Therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. 00:47.960 --> 00:53.140 Fear not, for I am with thee, I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee 00:53.140 --> 00:53.800 from the west. 00:53.800 --> 00:58.880 I will say to the north, Give up, and to the south, Keep not back. 00:59.460 --> 01:04.760 Bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth, even every one 01:04.760 --> 01:06.120 that is called by my name. 01:06.720 --> 01:12.520 For I have created him for my glory, I have formed him, yea, I have made him. 01:13.180 --> 01:17.180 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 01:17.560 --> 01:21.500 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled. 01:22.160 --> 01:25.400 Who among them can declare this, and show us former things? 01:25.820 --> 01:29.200 Let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified. 01:29.900 --> 01:32.940 Or let them hear and say, It is truth. 01:33.820 --> 01:38.400 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen, 01:39.140 --> 01:42.740 that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he. 01:43.560 --> 01:48.200 Before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 01:48.200 --> 01:54.120 I, even I, am the Lord, and beside me there is no Saviour. 01:54.820 --> 01:59.580 I have declared, and have saved, and I have showed, when there was no 01:59.580 --> 02:00.720 strange God among you. 02:01.360 --> 02:07.440 Therefore, ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God. 02:08.060 --> 02:12.980 Yea, before the day was, I am he, and there is none that can deliver out of 02:12.980 --> 02:13.560 my hand. 02:13.940 --> 02:16.080 I will work, and who shall let it? 02:16.740 --> 02:20.420 Thus saith the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. 02:21.120 --> 02:26.160 For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, 02:26.440 --> 02:29.020 and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships. 02:29.540 --> 02:34.520 I am the Lord, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King. 02:35.320 --> 02:39.980 Thus saith the Lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters, 02:40.420 --> 02:44.320 which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power. 02:44.320 --> 02:50.100 They shall lie down together, they shall not rise, they are extinct, they are 02:50.100 --> 02:51.140 quenched as toe. 02:52.140 --> 02:55.840 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. 02:56.220 --> 02:59.920 Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth. 03:00.520 --> 03:01.620 Shall ye not know it? 03:01.980 --> 03:05.360 I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. 03:05.900 --> 03:09.960 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls. 03:09.960 --> 03:15.060 Because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to 03:15.060 --> 03:16.580 my people, my chosen. 03:17.380 --> 03:21.800 This people have I formed for myself, they shall show forth my praise. 03:23.160 --> 03:28.240 But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob, but thou hast been weary of me, 03:28.360 --> 03:28.900 O Israel. 03:29.940 --> 03:34.480 Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings, neither hast thou 03:34.480 --> 03:36.180 honoured me with thy sacrifices. 03:36.180 --> 03:40.440 I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense. 03:41.080 --> 03:45.540 Thou hast brought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with 03:45.540 --> 03:46.820 the fat of thy sacrifices. 03:47.340 --> 03:51.860 But thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine 03:51.860 --> 03:52.760 iniquities. 03:53.640 --> 03:59.380 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, 03:59.580 --> 04:01.280 and will not remember thy sins. 04:01.900 --> 04:04.900 Put me in remembrance, let us plead together. 04:04.900 --> 04:08.380 Declare thou that thou mayest be justified. 04:09.180 --> 04:13.820 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me. 04:14.460 --> 04:18.740 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the 04:18.740 --> 04:20.940 curse, and Israel to reproaches.
