Isaiah 45:7-12

7I form the lightH216, and createH1254 darknessH2822; I makeH6213 peaceH7965, and createH1254 evilH7451; I am Jehovah, that doeth all these thingsH428.

8Distil, ye heavensH8064, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousnessH6666: let the earthH776 openH6605, that it may bring forth salvationH3468, and let it cause righteousnessH6666 to springH6779 up togetherH3162; I, Jehovah, have createdH1254 it.

9WoeH1945 unto him that striveth with his Maker! a potsherdH2789 among the potsherdsH2789 of the earthH127! Shall the clay sayH559 to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy workH6467, He hath no handsH3027? 10WoeH1945 unto him that saith unto a fatherH1, What begettest thou? or to a womanH802, With what travailest thou?

11ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, and his Maker: AskH7592 me of the thingsH857 that are to comeH857; concerning my sonsH1121, and concerning the workH6467 of my handsH3027, commandH6680 ye me. 12I have madeH6213 the earthH776, and createdH1254 manH120 upon it: I, even my handsH3027, have stretchedH5186 out the heavensH8064; and all their hostH6635 have I commandedH6680.
