Isaiah 43:18-28

18“1Do not callH2142 to mindH2142 the formerH7223 thingsH7223, Or ponderH995 thingsH6931 of the pastH6931.19BeholdH2009, I will doH6213 somethingH2319 2newH2319, NowH6258 it will springH6779 forthH6779; Will you not be awareH3045 of it? I will evenH637 3makeH7760 a roadwayH1870 in the wildernessH4057, RiversH5104 in the desertH3452.20The beastsH2421 of the fieldH7704 will glorifyH3513 Me, The 4jackalsH8565 and the ostrichesH3284, BecauseH3588 I have 5givenH5414 watersH4325 in the wildernessH4057 And riversH5104 in the desertH3452, To giveH8248 drinkH8248 to My chosenH972 peopleH5971.21The peopleH5971 whomH2098 6I formedH3335 for Myself 7Will declareH5608 My praiseH8416.

22“Yet you have not calledH7121 on Me, O JacobH3290; But you have becomeH3021 8wearyH3021 of Me, O IsraelH3478.23You have 9not broughtH935 to Me the sheepH7716 of your burntH5930 offeringsH5930, NorH3808 have you 10honoredH3513 Me with your sacrificesH2077. I have not 11burdenedH5647 you with 12offeringsH4503, NorH3808 weariedH3021 you with 13incenseH3828.24You have boughtH7069 Me not 14 15sweetH7070 caneH7070 with moneyH3701, NorH3808 have you 16filledH7301 Me with the fatH2459 of your sacrificesH2077; RatherH389 you have burdenedH5647 Me with your sinsH2403, You have 17weariedH3021 Me with your iniquitiesH5771.

25“I, even I, am the one who 18wipesH4229 out your transgressionsH6588 19for My own sakeH4616, And I will 20not rememberH2142 your sinsH2403.26 21PutH2142 Me in remembranceH2142, 22let us argueH8199 our caseH8199 togetherH3162; StateH5608 your cause, 23that you may be provedH6663 rightH6663.27Your 24firstH7223 25forefatherH1 sinnedH2398, And your 26 27spokesmenH3917 have 28transgressedH6586 against Me.28So I will 29polluteH2490 the 30princesH8269 of the sanctuaryH6944, And I will consignH5414 JacobH3290 to the 31banH2764 and IsraelH3478 to 32revilementH1421.
