Isaiah 42:5-12

5This is what God the Lord says, He who created the heavens and stretched them out, Who spread out the earth and its produce, Who gives breath to the people on it And spirit to those who walk on it,

6“I am the Lord, I have called You (the Messiah) in righteousness [for a righteous purpose], I will also take You by the hand and keep watch over You, And I will appoint You as a covenant to the people [Israel], As a light to the nations (Gentiles),

7To open the eyes of the blind, To bring out prisoners from the dungeon And those who sit in darkness from the prison.

8I am the Lord, that is My Name; My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved idols.

9Indeed, the former things have come to pass, Now I declare new things; Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.”

10Sing to the Lord a new song, Sing His praise from the end of the earth! You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, You islands and coastlands, and those who inhabit them [sing His praise]!

11Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voices, The villages where Kedar lives. Let the inhabitants of Sela shout for joy, Let them shout joyfully from the tops of the mountains.

12Let them give glory to the Lord And declare His praise in the islands and coastlands.
