Isaiah 50:2-5

2Why was no one here when I came? Why was no one here to answer when I called? Am I too weak to reclaim you? Don’t I have the power to rescue you? I dry up the sea with my command, and I turn rivers into deserts. Their fish stink because there is no water, and people die of thirst.

3I clothe the heavens in darkness and cover them with sackcloth.

4The Almighty Lord will teach me what to say, so I will know how to encourage weary people. Morning after morning he will wake me to listen like a student.

5The Almighty Lord will open my ears. I will not rebel, nor will I turn away ⌞from him⌟.
