50:7. The Lord God is my helper, therefore am I not confounded:
therefore have I set my face as a most hard rock, and I know that I
shall not be confounded.
50:8. He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me? let us
stand together, who is my adversary? let him come near to me.
50:9. Behold the Lord God is my helper: who is he that shall condemn me?
Lo, they shall all be destroyed as a garment, the moth shall eat them
up.
50:10. Who is there among you that feareth the Lord, that heareth the
voice of his servant, that hath walked in darkness, and hath no light?
let him hope in the name of the Lord, and lean upon his God.
50:11. Behold all you that kindle a fire, encompassed with flames, walk
in the light of your fire, and in the flames which you have kindled:
this is done to you by my hand, you shall sleep in sorrows.
Isaias Chapter 51
An exhortation to trust in Christ. He shall protect the children of his
church.
51:1. Give ear to me, you that follow that which is just, and you that
seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence you are hewn, and to the hole
of the pit from which you are dug out.
51:2. Look unto Abraham your father, and to Sara that bore you: for I
called him alone, and blessed him, and multiplied him.
51:3. The Lord therefore will comfort Sion, and will comfort all the
ruins thereof: and he will make her desert as a place of pleasure, and
her wilderness as the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness shall be
found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of praise.
51:4. Hearken unto me, O my people, and give ear to me, O my tribes: for
a law shall go forth from me, and my judgment shall rest to be a light
of the nations.
51:5. My just one is near at hand, my saviour is gone forth, and my arms
shall judge the people: the islands shall look for me, and shall
patiently wait for my arm.
51:6. Lift up your eyes to heaven, and look down to the earth beneath:
for the heavens shall vanish like smoke, and the earth shall be worn
away like a garment, and the inhabitants thereof shall perish in like
manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my justice shall not
fail.
51:7. Hearken to me, you that know what is just, my people who have my
law in your heart: fear ye not the reproach of men, and be not afraid of
their blasphemies.
51:8. For the worm shall eat them up as a garment: and the moth shall
consume them as wool: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my justice
from generation to generation.
51:9. Arise, arise, put on strength, O thou arm of the Lord, arise as in
the days of old, in the ancient generations. Hast not thou struck the
proud one, and wounded the dragon?
51:10. Hast not thou dried up the sea, the water of the mighty deep, who
madest the depth of the sea a way, that the delivered might pass over?
51:11. And now they that are redeemed by the Lord, shall return, and
shall come into Sion singing praises, and joy everlasting shall be upon
their heads, they shall obtain joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning
shall flee away.
51:12. I myself will comfort you: who art thou, that thou shouldst be
afraid of a mortal man, and of the son of man, who shall wither away
like grass?
51:13. And thou hast forgotten the Lord thy maker, who stretched out the
heavens, and founded the earth: and thou hast been afraid continually
all the day at the presence of his fury who afflicted thee, and had
prepared himself to destroy thee: where is now the fury of the
oppressor?
