¹ Thus saith Jehovah to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him — and I will loose the loins of kings; to open before him the two-leaved doors, and the gates shall not be shut:

² I will go before thee, and make the elevated places plain; I will break in pieces the brazen doors, and cut asunder the bars of iron;

³ and I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places; that thou mayest know that I, Jehovah, who call thee by name, [am] the¹ God of Israel.

1. 45.3 Elohim

⁴ For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have called thee by thy name; I surnamed thee, though thou didst not know me;

⁵ I [am] Jehovah, and there is none else; there is no¹ God beside me: I girded thee, and thou hast not known me;

1. 45.5 Elohim

⁶ — that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the going down, that there is none beside me. I [am] Jehovah, and there is none else;

⁷ forming the light and creating darkness, making peace and creating evil: I, Jehovah, do all these things.

⁸ Drop down, [ye] heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness; let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and with it let righteousness spring up. I, Jehovah, have created it.

⁹ Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let a potsherd [strive] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that formeth it, What makest thou? Or thy work, He hath no hands?

¹⁰ Woe unto him that saith unto [his] father, What begettest thou? Or to [his] mother, What hast thou brought forth?

¹¹ Thus saith Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: Ask me of the things to come; concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands, command ye me.

¹² It is I that have made the earth, and created man upon it; it is I, my hands, that have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

¹³ It is I that have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make all his ways straight: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith Jehovah of hosts.

¹⁴ Thus saith Jehovah: The wealth of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall walk after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall bow down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, [saying,] Surely¹ God is in thee; and there is none else, no other² God. ...

1. 45.14 El
2. 45.14 Elohim

¹⁵ Verily thou art a¹ God that hidest thyself, O² God of Israel, the Saviour. ...

1. 45.15 El
2. 45.15 Elohim

¹⁶ They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them; they shall go away in confusion together, the makers of idols.

¹⁷ Israel shall be saved by Jehovah with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded, unto the ages of ages.

¹⁸ For thus saith Jehovah who created the heavens,¹God himself who formed the earth and made it, he who established it, — not as waste did he create it: he formed it to be inhabited: — I [am] Jehovah, and there is none else.

1. 45.18 Elohim

¹⁹ I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth; I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek me in vain: I [am] Jehovah, speaking righteousness, declaring things which are right.

²⁰ Gather yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations. They have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a¹ god that cannot save.

1. 45.20 El

²¹ Declare and bring [them] near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath caused this to be heard from ancient time? [who] hath declared it long ago? Is it not I, Jehovah? And there is no¹ God else beside me; a just² God and a Saviour, there is none besides me.

1. 45.21 Elohim
2. 45.21 El

²² Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I [am]¹God, and there is none else.

1. 45.22 El

²³ I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth [in] righteousness and shall not return, that unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

²⁴ Only in Jehovah, shall one say, have I righteousness and strength. To him shall [men] come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

²⁵ In Jehovah shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
