Isaiah

1 Yet now hear, Oh Jacōb my servant; and Israēl, whom I have chosen.

1 νῦν δὲ ἄκουσον, παῖς μου Ἰακὼβ καὶ Ἰσραήλ, ὃν ἐξελεξάμην·	1 νῦν δὲ ἄκουσον, Ἰακὼβ ὁ παῖς μου καὶ Ἰσραήλ, ὃν ἐξελεξάμην·
1 But now hear, Oh Jakōb my servant and Israēl whom I have chosen.	1 But now hear, Oh Jakōb my servant and Israēl whom I have chosen.

2 Thus says Yahweh that made you, and formed you from the womb, which will help you; Don’t fear, Oh Jacōb, my servant; and you, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.

2 οὕτως λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ ποιήσας σὲ καὶ ὁ πλάσας σὲ ἐκ κοιλίας ἔτι βοηθηθήσῃ, μὴ φοβοῦ, παῖς μου Ἰακὼβ καὶ ὁ ἠγαπημένος Ἰσραήλ, ὃν ἐξελεξάμην·	2 οὕτω λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ποιήσας σε καὶ ὁ πλάσας σε ἐκ κοιλίας· ἔτι βοηθηθήσῃ, μὴ φοβοῦ, παῖς μου Ἰακὼβ καὶ ἠγαπημένος Ἰσραήλ, ὃν ἐξελεξάμην.
2 Thus says the Lord God who made you and who formed you from the womb. You will still be helped; don’t fear, Oh Jakōb my servant and the beloved Israēl whom I have chosen,	2 Thus says the Lord God who made you and who formed you from the womb. You will still be helped; don’t fear, Oh Jakōb my servant and the beloved Israēl whom I have chosen,

3 For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground: I will pour my spirit on your seed, and my blessing on your offspring.

3 ὅτι ἐγὼ δώσω ὕδωρ ἐν δίψει τοῖς πορευομένοις ἐν ἀνύδρῳ, ἐπιθήσω τὸ πνεῦμά μου ἐπὶ τὸ σπέρμα σου καὶ τὰς εὐλογίας μου ἐπὶ τὰ τέκνα σου,	3 ὅτι ἐγὼ δώσω ὕδωρ ἐν δίψει τοῖς πορευομένοις ἐν ἀνύδρῳ, ἐπιθήσω τὸ πνεῦμά μου ἐπὶ τὸ σπέρμα σου καὶ τὰς εὐλογίας μου ἐπὶ τὰ τέκνα σου,
3 because I will provide water in their thirst to those who walk in a dry land; I will put my spirit on your offspring and my blessings on your children.	3 because I will provide water in their thirst to those who walk in a dry land; I will put my spirit on your offspring and my blessings on your children.

4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.

4 καὶ ἀνατελοῦσιν ὡσεὶ χόρτος ἀνὰ μέσον ὕδατος καὶ ὡς ἰτέα ἐπὶ παραρρέον ὕδωρ.	4 καὶ ἀνατελοῦσιν ὡς ἀναμέσον ὕδατος χόρτος καὶ ὡς ἰτέα ἐπὶ παραρρέον ὕδωρ.
4 And they shall spring up like grass in the midst of water and like a willow tree by flowing water.	4 And they shall spring up like grass in the midst of water and like a willow tree by flowing water.

5 One shall say, I am Yahweh’s; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacōb; and another shall subscribe with his hand to Yahweh, and surname himself by the name of Israēl.

5 οὗτος ἐρεῖ τοῦ θεοῦ εἰμι, καὶ οὗτος βοήσεται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Ἰακώβ, καὶ ἕτερος ἐπιγράψει τοῦ θεοῦ εἰμι, ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Ἰσραήλ.	5 οὗτος ἐρεῖ· τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰμι, καὶ οὗτος βοήσεται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Ἰακώβ, καὶ ἕτερος ἐπιγράψει χειρὶ αὐτοῦ· τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰμι, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Ἰσραὴλ βοήσεται.–
5 This one will say, “I am God’s,” and this one will call out on the name of Jakōb; yet another will write, “I am God’s,” in the name of Israēl.	5 This one will say, “I am God’s,” and this one will call out on the name of Jakōb; yet another will write with his hand, “I am God’s,” and call out in the name of Israēl.

6 Thus says Yahweh the King of Israēl, and his redeemer Yahweh of armies; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.

6 οὕτως λέγει ὁ θεὸς ὁ βασιλεὺς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ὁ ῥυσάμενος αὐτὸν θεὸς σαβαὼθ ἐγὼ πρῶτος καὶ ἐγὼ μετὰ ταῦτα, πλὴν ἐμοῦ οὐκ ἔστιν θεός.	6 Οὕτως λέγει ὁ Θεὸς ὁ βασιλεὺς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ὁ ῥυσάμενος αὐτὸν Θεὸς σαβαώθ· ἐγὼ πρῶτος καὶ ἐγὼ μετὰ ταῦτα· πλὴν ἐμοῦ οὐκ ἔστι Θεός.
6 Thus says God, the king of Israēl, who rescued him, God Sabaōth. I am first, and I am after these things; other than me there is no god.	6 Thus says God, the king of Israēl, who rescued him, God Sabaōth. I am first, and I am after these things; other than me there is no god.

7 And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? And the things that are coming, and shall come, let them show to them.

7 τίς ὥσπερ ἐγώ; στήτω καλεσάτω καὶ ἑτοιμασάτω μοι ἀφ’ οὗ ἐποίησα ἄνθρωπον εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, καὶ τὰ ἐπερχόμενα πρὸ τοῦ ἐλθεῖν ἀναγγειλάτωσαν ὑμῖν.	7 τίς ὥσπερ ἐγώ; στήτω καὶ καλεσάτω καὶ ἀναγγειλάτω καὶ ἑτοιμασάτω μοι ἀφ’ οὗ ἐποίησα ἄνθρωπον εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, καὶ τὰ ἐπερχόμενα πρὸ τοῦ ἐλθεῖν ἀναγγειλάτωσαν ὑμῖν.
7 Who is like me? Let him stand; let him call, let him tell, and let him prepare for me, from which I have made man forever, and let them tell you the things that are coming before they come.	7 Who is like me? Let him stand; let him call, and let him prepare for me, from which I have made man forever, and let them tell you the things that are coming before they come.

8 Don’t fear, neither be afraid: haven’t I told you from that time, and have declared it? You are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? Yes, there is no God; I don’t know any.

8 μὴ παρακαλύπτεσθε· οὐκ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ἠνωτίσασθε καὶ ἀπήγγειλα ὑμῖν; μάρτυρες ὑμεῖς ἐστε, εἰ ἔστιν θεὸς πλὴν ἐμοῦ· καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν τότε.	8 μὴ παρακαλύπτεσθε μηδὲ πλανᾶσθε· οὐκ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ἠνωτίσασθε καὶ ἀπήγγειλα ὑμῖν; μάρτυρες ὑμεῖς ἐστε, εἰ ἔστι Θεὸς πλὴν ἐμοῦ·
8 Don’t hide yourselves; you didn’t pay attention from the beginning. Didn’t I tell you? You are witnesses if there is a god other than me, and they were not previously.	8 Don’t hide yourselves or be deceived; you didn’t pay attention from the beginning. Didn’t I tell you? You are witnesses if there is a god other than me,

9 They who make a carved image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they don’t see, nor know; that they may be ashamed.

9 οἱ πλάσσοντες καὶ γλύφοντες πάντες μάταιοι οἱ ποιοῦντες τὰ καταθύμια αὐτῶν, ἃ οὐκ ὠφελήσει αὐτούς· ἀλλὰ αἰσχυνθήσονται	9 καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν τότε οἱ πλάσσοντες καὶ γλύφοντες πάντες μάταιοι οἱ ποιοῦντες τὰ καταθύμια αὐτῶν, ἃ οὐκ ὠφελήσει αὐτούς· ἀλλὰ αἰσχυνθήσονται
9 All who fashion and carve are vain; those who do the things that are in their mind, which won’t profit them. But they will be put to shame,	9 and they were not previously. All who fashion and carve are vain; those who do the things that are in their mind, which won’t profit them. But they will be put to shame,

10 Who has formed a god, or molten a carved image that is profitable for nothing?

10 πάντες οἱ πλάσσοντες θεὸν καὶ γλύφοντες ἀνωφελῆ,	10 πάντες οἱ πλάσσοντες Θεὸν καὶ γλύφοντες ἀνωφελῆ,
10 all who fashion a god or cast useless things,	10 all who fashion a god or cast useless things,

11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed; and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together.

11 καὶ πάντες ὅθεν ἐγένοντο ἐξηράνθησαν, καὶ κωφοὶ ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπων συναχθήτωσαν πάντες καὶ στήτωσαν ἅμα, ἐντραπήτωσαν καὶ αἰσχυνθήτωσαν ἅμα.	11 καὶ πάντες ὅθεν ἐγένοντο ἐξηράνθησαν, καὶ κωφοὶ ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπων συναχθήτωσαν πάντες καὶ στησάτωσαν ἅμα, ἐντραπήτωσαν καὶ αἰσχυνθήτωσαν ἅμα.
11 and all from where they came have withered and are mute from among men. Let them all assemble and stand together; let them be humiliated and be ashamed together.	11 and all from where they came have withered and are mute from among men. Let them all assemble and stand together; let them be humiliated and be ashamed together.

12 The smith with the tongs both works in the coals, and fashions it with hammers, and works it with the strength of his arms: yes, he is hungry, and his strength fails: he drinks no water, and is faint.

12 ὅτι ὤξυνεν τέκτων σίδηρον, σκεπάρνῳ εἰργάσατο αὐτὸ καὶ ἐν τερέτρῳ ἔτρησεν αὐτό, εἰργάσατο αὐτὸ ἐν τῷ βραχίονι τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ· καὶ πεινάσει καὶ ἀσθενήσει καὶ οὐ μὴ πίῃ ὕδωρ. ἐκλεξάμενος	12 ὅτι ὤξυνε τέκτων σίδηρον, σκεπάρνῳ εἰργάσατο αὐτὸ καὶ ἐν τερέτρῳ ἔστησεν αὐτό, εἰργάσατο αὐτὸ ἐν τῷ βραχίονι τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ· καὶ πεινάσει καὶ ἀσθενήσει καὶ οὐ μὴ πίῃ ὕδωρ.
12 Because the craftman sharpened iron, he worked it with an axe and pierced it with a drill; he worked it with his strong arm; and he will become hungry and weak and won’t drink water. Having chosen	12 Because the craftman sharpened iron, he worked it with an axe and pierced it with a drill; he worked it with his strong arm; and he will become hungry and weak and won’t drink water.

13 The carpenter stretches out his rule; he marks it out with a line; he fits it with planes, and he marks it out with the surround, and makes it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.

13 τέκτων ξύλον ἔστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν μέτρῳ καὶ ἐν κόλλῃ ἐρρύθμισεν αὐτό, ἐποίησεν αὐτὸ ὡς μορφὴν ἀνδρὸς καὶ ὡς ὡραιότητα ἀνθρώπου στῆσαι αὐτὸ ἐν οἴκῳ.	13 ἐκλεξάμενος τέκτων ξύλον ἔστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν μέτρῳ καὶ ἐν κόλλῃ ἐρρύθμισεν αὐτὸ καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸ ὡς μορφὴν ἀνδρὸς καὶ ὡς ὡραιότητα ἀνθρώπου στῆσαι αὐτὸ ἐν οἴκῳ.
13 a piece of wood, a carpenter set it up with a measure and aligned it with glue; he made it like the form of a man, like a mature man, to set it up in a house.	13 Having chosen a piece of wood, a carpenter set it up with a measure and aligned it with glue; he made it like the form of a man, like a mature man, to set it up in a house.

14 He hews him down cedars, and takes the cypress and the oak, which he strengthens for himself among the trees of the forest: he plants an ash, and the rain nourishes it.

14 ὃ ἔκοψεν ξύλον ἐκ τοῦ δρυμοῦ, ὃ ἐφύτευσεν κύριος καὶ ὑετὸς ἐμήκυνεν,	14 ἔκοψε ξύλον ἐκ τοῦ δρυμοῦ, ὃν ἐφύτευσε Κύριος καὶ ὑετὸς ἐμήκυνεν,
14 He cut a tree out of the forest, which the Lord planted and the rain made grow,	14 He cut a tree out of the forest, which the Lord planted and the rain made grow,

15 Then shall it be for a man to burn; for he will take of it, and warm himself; yes, he kindles it, and bakes bread; yes, he makes a god, and worships it; he makes it a carved image, and falls down to it.

15 ἵνα ᾖ ἀνθρώποις εἰς καῦσιν· καὶ λαβὼν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐθερμάνθη, καὶ καύσαντες ἔπεψαν ἄρτους ἐπ’ αὐτῶν· τὸ δὲ λοιπὸν εἰργάσαντο εἰς θεούς, καὶ προσκυνοῦσιν αὐτούς.	15 ἵνα ᾖ ἀνθρώποις εἰς καῦσιν· καὶ λαβὼν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐθερμάνθη, καὶ καύσαντες ἔπεψαν ἄρτους ἐπ’ αὐτῶν, τὸ δὲ λοιπὸν εἰργάσαντο θεούς, καὶ προσκυνοῦσιν αὐτοῖς.
15 in order that it might be for men to burn. And after he took some of it, he warmed himself, and after he ignited it, they baked bread on them. But the rest they worked into gods, and they do obeisance to them.	15 in order that it might be for men to burn. And after he took some of it, he warmed himself, and after he ignited it, they baked bread on them. But the rest they worked into gods, and they do obeisance to them.

16 He burns part of it in the fire; with part of it he eats flesh; he roasts roast, and is satisfied: yes, he warms himself, and says, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire.

16 οὗ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ κατέκαυσαν ἐν πυρὶ καὶ καύσαντες ἔπεψαν ἄρτους ἐπ’ αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ κρέας ὀπτήσας ἔφαγεν καὶ ἐνεπλήσθη· καὶ θερμανθεὶς εἶπεν ἡδύ μοι ὅτι ἐθερμάνθην καὶ εἶδον πῦρ.	16 οὗ τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ κατέκαυσεν ἐν πυρὶ καὶ καύσαντες ἔπεψαν ἄρτους ἐπ’ αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ κρέας ὀπτήσας ἔφαγε καὶ ἐνεπλήσθη, καὶ θερμανθεὶς εἶπε· ἡδύ μοι ὅτι ἐθερμάνθην καὶ εἶδον πῦρ.
16 Half of it he burned up in the fire, and after igniting it, they baked bread on them. and from it they cooked meat and ate and became satisfied. And after warming himself, he said, “I am pleased that I have been warmed and have seen the fire.”	16 Half of it he burned up in the fire, and after igniting it, they baked bread on them. and from it they cooked meat and ate and became satisfied. And after warming himself, he said, “I am pleased that I have been warmed and have seen the fire.”

17 And the residue of it he makes a god, even his carved image: he falls down to it, and worships it, and prays to it, and says, Deliver me; for you are my god.

17 τὸ δὲ λοιπὸν ἐποίησεν εἰς θεὸν γλυπτὸν καὶ προσκυνεῖ αὐτῷ καὶ προσεύχεται λέγων ἐξελοῦ με, ὅτι θεός μου εἶ σύ.	17 τὸ δὲ λοιπὸν ἐποίησεν εἰς θεὸν γλυπτὸν καὶ προσκυνεῖ αὐτῷ καὶ προσεύχεται λέγων· ἐξελοῦ με, ὅτι θεός μου εἰς σύ.
17 The remainder he made into a engraven god and does obeisance to it, and he prays, saying, “Rescue me, because you are my god!”	17 The remainder he made into a engraven god and does obeisance to it, and he prays, saying, “Rescue me, because you are my god!”

18 They haven’t known nor understood; for he has shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.

18 οὐκ ἔγνωσαν φρονῆσαι, ὅτι ἀπημαυρώθησαν τοῦ βλέπειν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτῶν καὶ τοῦ νοῆσαι τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν.	18 οὐκ ἔγνωσαν φρονῆσαι, ὅτι ἀπημαυρώθησαν τοῦ βλέπειν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτῶν καὶ τοῦ νοῆσαι τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν.
18 They didn’t know how to think, because they were blinded from seeing with their eyes and from understanding with their heart.	18 They didn’t know how to think, because they were blinded from seeing with their eyes and from understanding with their heart.

19 And none considers in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yes, also I have baked bread on the coals of it; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it; and shall I make the residue of it an abomination? Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?

19 καὶ οὐκ ἐλογίσατο τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἀνελογίσατο ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἔγνω τῇ φρονήσει ὅτι τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ κατέκαυσεν ἐν πυρὶ καὶ ἔπεψεν ἐπὶ τῶν ἀνθράκων αὐτοῦ ἄρτους καὶ ὀπτήσας κρέας ἔφαγεν καὶ τὸ λοιπὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς βδέλυγμα ἐποίησεν καὶ προσκυνοῦσιν αὐτῷ.	19 καὶ οὐκ ἐλογίσατο τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἀνελογίσατο ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἔγνω τῇ φρονήσει, ὅτι τὸ ἥμισυ αὐτοῦ κατέκαυσεν ἐν πυρὶ καὶ ἔπεψεν ἐπὶ τῶν ἀνθράκων αὐτοῦ ἄρτους καὶ ὀπτήσας κρέα ἔφαγε καὶ τὸ λοιπὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς βδέλυγμα ἐποίησε καὶ προσκυνοῦσιν αὐτῷ.
19 And he has not considered in his heart nor considered in his soul nor known in his mind that half of it he burned in the fire and that he baked bread on its coals and cooked meat and ate and that the rest of it he made into an abomination, and they are doing obeisance to it.	19 And he has not considered in his heart nor considered in his soul nor known in his mind that half of it he burned in the fire and that he baked bread on its coals and cooked meat and ate and that the rest of it he made into an abomination, and they are doing obeisance to it.

20 He feeds on ashes: a deceived heart has turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?

20 γνῶτε ὅτι σποδὸς ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν, καὶ πλανῶνται, καὶ οὐδεὶς δύναται ἐξελέσθαι τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ· ἴδετε, οὐκ ἐρεῖτε ὅτι ψεῦδος ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ μου;	20 γνῶθι ὅτι σποδὸς ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν, καὶ πλανῶνται, καὶ οὐδεὶς δύναται ἐξελέσθαι τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ· ἴδετε, οὐκ ἐρεῖτε ὅτι ψεῦδος ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ μου;
20 Know that their heart is ashes, and they are going astray, and no one is able to rescue his soul. Look! Won’t you say, “There is a lie in my right hand”?	20 Know that their heart is ashes, and they are going astray, and no one is able to rescue his soul. Look! Won’t you say, “There is a lie in my right hand”?

21 Remember these, Oh Jacōb and Israēl; for you are my servant: I have formed you; you are my servant: Oh Israēl, you shall not be forgotten of me.

21 μνήσθητι ταῦτα, Ἰακὼβ καὶ Ἰσραήλ, ὅτι παῖς μου εἶ σύ· ἔπλασά σὲ παῖδά μου, καὶ σύ, Ἰσραήλ, μὴ ἐπιλανθάνου μου.	21 Μνήσθητι ταῦτα Ἰακὼβ καὶ Ἰσραήλ, ὅτι παῖς μου εἶ σύ· ἔπλασά σε παῖδά μου, καὶ σὺ Ἰσραὴλ μὴ ἐπιλανθάνου μου.
21 Remember these things, Oh Jakōb and Israēl, because you are my servant; I formed you as my servant, and you, Israēl, don’t forget me.	21 Remember these things, Oh Jakōb and Israēl, because you are my servant; I formed you as my servant, and you, Israēl, don’t forget me.

22 I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, your transgressions, and, as a cloud, your sins: return to me; for I have redeemed you.

22 ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἀπήλειψα ὡς νεφέλην τὰς ἀνομίας σου καὶ ὡς γνόφον τὰς ἁμαρτίας σου· ἐπιστράφητι πρός με, καὶ λυτρώσομαί σε.	22 ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἀπήλειψα ὡς νεφέλην τὰς ἀνομίας σου καὶ ὡς γνόφον τὰς ἁμαρτίας σου· ἐπιστράφηθι πρός με, καὶ λυτρώσομαί σε.
22 Look! For I have wiped out your acts of lawlessness like a cloud and your sins like gloom; return to me, and I will redeem you.	22 Look! For I have wiped out your acts of lawlessness like a cloud and your sins like gloom; return to me, and I will redeem you.

23 Sing, Oh you heavens; for Yahweh has done it: shout, you lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, you mountains, Oh forest, and every tree in it; for Yahweh has redeemed Jacōb, and glorified himself in Israēl.

23 εὐφράνθητε, οὐρανοί, ὅτι ἠλέησεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν Ἰσραήλ· σαλπίσατε, θεμέλια τῆς γῆς, βοήσατε, ὄρη, εὐφροσύνην, οἱ βουνοὶ καὶ πάντα τὰ ξύλα τὰ ἐν αὐτοῖς, ὅτι ἐλυτρώσατο ὁ θεὸς τὸν Ἰακώβ, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ δοξασθήσεται.	23 εὐφράνθητε, οὐρανοί, ὅτι ἠλέησεν ὁ Θεός τὸν Ἰσραήλ· σαλπίσατε, τὰ θεμέλια τῆς γῆς, βοήσατε, ὄρη, εὐφροσύνην, οἱ βουνοὶ καὶ πάντα τὰ ξύλα τὰ ἐν αὐτοῖς, ὅτι ἐλυτρώσατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν Ἰακώβ, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ δοξασθήσεται.
23 Rejoice, Oh heavens, because God has had mercy on Israēl; blow the trumpet, Oh foundations of the earth; shout for joy, Oh mountains, the hills and all the trees that are in them, because God has redeemed Jakōb, and Israēl will be glorified.	23 Rejoice, Oh heavens, because God has had mercy on Israēl; blow the trumpet, Oh foundations of the earth; shout for joy, Oh mountains, the hills and all the trees that are in them, because God has redeemed Jakōb, and Israēl will be glorified.

24 Thus says Yahweh, your redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb, I am Yahweh that makes all things; that stretches forth the heavens alone; that spreads abroad the earth by myself;

24 οὕτως λέγει κύριος ὁ λυτρούμενός σὲ καὶ ὁ πλάσσων σὲ ἐκ κοιλίας ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ συντελῶν πάντα ἐξέτεινα τὸν οὐρανὸν μόνος καὶ ἐστερέωσα τὴν γῆν. τίς ἕτερος	24 Οὕτω λέγει Κύριος ὁ λυτρούμενός σε καὶ ὁ πλάσσων σε ἐκ κοιλίας· ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ συντελῶν πάντας, ἐξέτεινα τὸν οὐρανὸν μόνος καὶ ἐστερέωσα τὴν γῆν.
24 Thus says the Lord, who redeems you, who forms you from the womb. I am the Lord, who accomplishes all things; I alone stretched out the sky, and I solidified the land. Who else	24 Thus says the Lord, who redeems you, who forms you from the womb. I am the Lord, who accomplishes all things; I alone stretched out the sky, and I solidified the land.

25 That frustrates the tokens of the liars, and makes diviners mad; that turns wise men backward, and makes their knowledge foolish;

25 διασκεδάσει σημεῖα ἐγγαστριμύθων καὶ μαντείας ἀπὸ καρδίας, ἀποστρέφων φρονίμους εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω καὶ τὴν βουλὴν αὐτῶν μωρεύων	25 τίς ἕτερος διασκεδάσει σημεῖα ἐγγαστριμύθων καὶ μαντείας ἀπὸ καρδίας, ἀποστρέφων φρονίμους εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω καὶ τὴν βουλὴν αὐτῶν μωραίνων
25 will scatter the signs of ventriloquists and the divinations from the heart, turning the wise backward and making their advice foolish	25 Who else will scatter the signs of ventriloquists and the divinations from the heart, turning the wise backward and making their advice foolish

26 That confirms the word of his servant, and performs the counsel of his messengers; that says to Jerusalem, You shall be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, You shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places of it.

26 καὶ ἱστῶν ῥήματα παιδὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν βουλὴν τῶν ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ ἀληθεύων; ὁ λέγων Ἱερουσαλὴμ κατοικηθήσῃ, καὶ ταῖς πόλεσιν τῆς Ἰουδαίας οἰκοδομηθήσεσθε, καὶ τὰ ἔρημα αὐτῆς ἀνατελεῖ·	26 καὶ ἱστῶν ῥῆμα παιδὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν βουλὴν τῶν ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ ἀληθεύων; ὁ λέγων τῇ Ἱερουσαλήμ· κατοικηθήσῃ καὶ ταῖς πόλεσι τῆς Ἰδουμαίας· οἰκοδομηθήσεσθε, καὶ τὰ ἔρημα αὐτῆς ἀνατελεῖ·

The one who says to Jerousalēm, “You shall be inhabited,” and to the cities of Judea, “You shall be built,” and her deserted places shall arise;

27 That says to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up your rivers.

27 ὁ λέγων τῇ ἀβύσσῳ ἐρημωθήσῃ, καὶ τοὺς ποταμούς σου ξηρανῶ·	27 ὁ λέγων τῇ ἀβύσσῳ· ἐρημωθήσῃ, καὶ τοὺς ποταμούς σου ξηρανῶ·
27 who says to the deep, “You will become desolate, and I will dry up your rivers,”	27 who says to the deep, “You will become desolate, and I will dry up your rivers,”

28 That says of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, You shall be built; and to the temple, Your foundation shall be laid.

28 ὁ λέγων Κύρῳ φρονεῖν, καὶ πάντα τὰ θελήματά μου ποιήσει· ὁ λέγων Ἱερουσαλὴμ οἰκοδομηθήσῃ, καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν ἅγιόν μου θεμελιώσω.	28 ὁ λέγων Κύρῳ φρονεῖν καὶ πάντα τὰ θελήματά μου ποιήσει· ὁ λέγων Ἱερουσαλήμ· οἰκοδομηθήσῃ, καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν ἅγιόν μου θεμελιώσω.
