5This is whatH3541 GodH410 the LORDH3068 saysH559— He who createdH1254 the heavensH8064 and stretched them outH5186, who spread outH7554 the earthH776 and its offspringH6631, who givesH5414 breathH5397 to the peopleH5971 on itH5921 and lifeH7307 to those who walkH1980 in it:

6“IH589, the LORDH3068, have called youH7121for a righteous purposeH6664,and I will take holdH2388 of your handH3027.I will keep youH5341 and appoint youH5414to be a covenantH1285 for the peopleH5971and a lightH216 to the nationsH1471,7to openH6491 the eyesH5869 of the blindH5787,to bringH3318 prisonersH616 out of the dungeonH4525and those sittingH3427 in darknessH2822out from the prisonH3608 houseH1004.
8IH589 am the LORDH3068;thatH1931 is My nameH8034!I will notH3808 yieldH5414 My gloryH3519 to anotherH312or My praiseH8416 to idolsH6456.9BeholdH2009, the former thingsH7223 have happenedH935,and now IH589 declareH5046 new thingsH2319.BeforeH2962 they spring forthH6779I proclaim themH8085 to youH853.”
10SingH7891 to the LORDH3068 a newH2319 songH7892—His praiseH8416 from the endsH7097 of the earthH776—you who go downH3381 to the seaH3220, and all that is in itH4393,you islandsH339,1 and all who dwell in themH3427.11Let the desertH4057 and its citiesH5892 raise their voicesH5375;let the villagesH2691 of KedarH6938 cry aloud.Let the peopleH3427 of SelaH5554 sing for joyH7442;let them cry outH6681 from the mountaintopsH7218H2022.12Let them giveH7760 gloryH3519 to the LORDH3068and declareH5046 His praiseH8416 in the islandsH339.
