1: BeholdH2005 My Servant,H5650 whom I uphold-H8551 My Chosen one,H0972 [in whom] delights-H7521 My soulH5315 I have putH5414 My SpiritH7307 upon HimH5921 justiceH4941 to the GentilesH1471 He will bring forth.H3318

2: NotH3808 He will cry out,H6817 norH3808 raise [His voice],H5375 norH3808 cause to be heardH8085 in the streetH2351 His voice.H6963

3: A reedH7070 bruisedH7533 notH3808 He will break,H7665 and flaxH6594 smokingH3544 notH3808 He will quench-H3518 for truthH0571 He will bring forthH3318 justice.H4941

4: NotH3808 He will failH3543 norH3808 be discouraged,H7533 TillH5704 He has establishedH7760 in the earth-H0776 justiceH4941 and for His law.H8451 The coastlandsH0339 shall wait.H3176

5: ThusH3541 saysH0559 GodH0410 Yahweh,H3068 who createdH1254 the heavens,H8064 and stretched them out-H5186 who spread forthH7554 the earth,H0776 that which comes from itH6631 who givesH5414 breathH5397 to the peopleH5971 on itH5921 and spiritH7307 to those who walkH1980

6: IH0589 YahwehH3068 have called YouH7121 in righteousness,H6664 and will holdH2388 Your hand,H3027 and I will keep YouH5341 and give YouH5414 as a covenant toH1285 the people,H5971 as a light toH0216 the Gentiles-H1471

7: to openH6491 eyes,H5869 blindH5787 to bring outH3318 from the prison,H4525 prisonersH0616 from the house.H1004 PrisonH3608 Those who sitH3427 in darkness.H2822

8: I [am]H0589 Yahweh,H3068 that [is]H1931 My name-H8034 and My gloryH3519 to another,H0312 notH3808 I will giveH5414 nor My praiseH8416 to carved images.H6456

9: The former thingsH7223 behold,H2009 have come to pass,H0935 and new thingsH2319 IH0589 declare-H5046 BeforeH2962 they spring forthH6779 I tellH8085 you of them.H0853

10: SingH7891 to YahwehH3068 a song,H7892 newH2319 [And] His praiseH8416 from the endsH7097 of the earth,H0776 You who go down toH3381 the sea,H3220 and all that is in it-H4393 You coastlands,H0339 and you inhabitants of them.H3427

11: Let lift up [their voice]H5375 the wildernessH4057 and its citiesH5892 the villagesH2691 [that] inhabits.H3427 KedarH6938 let sing,H7442 the inhabitantsH3427 of SelaH5554 from the topH7218 of the mountainsH2022 let them shout.H6681

12: Let them giveH7760 to Yahweh,H3068 gloryH3519 and His praiseH8416 in the coastlandsH0339 declare.H5046

13: YahwehH3068 like a mighty man,H1368 shall go forthH3318 like a manH0376 of war.H4421 He shall stir upH5782 [His] zealH7068 He shall cry out,H7321 yes,H0637 shout aloud-H6873 againstH5921 His enemiesH0341 He shall prevail.H1396

14: I have held My peace-H2814 a long timeH5769 I have been still,H2790 and restrained Myself-H0662 like a woman in labor-H3205 [Now] I will cryH6463 I will pantH5395 and gaspH7602 at once.H3162

15: I will lay wasteH2717 the mountainsH2022 and hills,H1389 and allH3605 their vegetation-H6212 dry upH3001 and I will makeH7760 the riversH5104 coastlands,H0339 and the poolsH0098 I will dry up.H3001

16: And I will bringH1980 the blindH5787 by a wayH1870 not-H3808 they did knowH3045 in pathsH5410 notH3808 they have known-H3045 I will lead themH1869 I will makeH7760 darknessH4285 before themH6440 lightH0216 and crooked placesH4625 straight.H4334 TheseH0428 thingsH1697 I will do for themH6213 and notH3808 forsake them.H5800

17: They shall be turnedH5472 back,H0268 they shall be greatly ashamedH0954 they shall be greatly,H1322 who trustH0982 in carved images,H6459 who sayH0559 to the molded images,H4541 You [are]H0859 our gods'.H0430

18: You deaf-H2795 Hear,H8085 and you blind,H5787 look,H5027 that you may see.H7200

19: Who [is]H4310 blind,H5787 forH3588 butH0518 My servant?H5650 Or deaf,H2795 as My messengerH4397 [whom] I send?H7971 who [is]H4310 blindH5787 as [he who is] perfect,H7999 and blindH5787 as the servantH5650 of Yahweh?H3068 SeeingH7200 many things,H7227 but not-H3808 you do observeH8104 OpeningH6491 the ears,H0241 but notH3808 he does hear.H8085

21: YahwehH3068 is well pleasedH2654 for sakeH4616 His righteousness'H6664 He will exaltH1431 the law,H8451 and make [it] honorable.H0142

22: But it [is]H1931 a peopleH5971 robbedH0962 and plundered-H8154 are snaredH6351 in holes,H2352 all of themH3605 and in houses-H1004 prisonH3608 they are hiddenH2244 they areH1961 for prey,H0957 and no oneH0369 delivers-H5337 for plunder,H4933 and no oneH0369 says,H0559 Restore.H7725

23: WhoH4310 will give earH0238 to this?H2063 [Who] will listenH7181 and hearH8085 for the time to come?H0268

24: whoH4310 gaveH5414 for plunderH4882 JacobH3290 and IsraelH3478 to the robbers?H0962 Was it notH3808 YahwehH3069 He whomH2098 we have sinned?H2398 for notH3808 they wouldH0014 in His ways,H1870 walkH1980 norH3808 were they obedientH8085 to His law.H8451

25: Therefore He has pouredH8210 on himH5921 the furyH2534 of His anger,H0639 and the strengthH5807 of battle-H4421 and it has set him on fireH3857 all around,H5439 and yet not-H3808 he did knowH3045 and it burnedH1197 and yet notH3808 he did take [it]H7760 toH5921 heart.H3820
