Isaiah 41:2-8
21WhoH4310 has stirredH5782 one from the eastH4217 Whom He 2callsH7121 in righteousnessH6664 to His 3feetH7272? He 4turnsH5414 nationsH1471 overH5414H6440 to him And subduesH7287 kingsH4428. He makesH5414 them like 5dustH6083 with his swordH2719, Like the wind-driven 6chaffH7179 with his bowH7198.3He pursuesH7291 them, passingH5674 onH5674 in safetyH7965, By a wayH734 he had not been 7traversingH935 with his feetH7272.48WhoH4310 has performedH6466 and accomplishedH6213 it, SummoningH7121 the generationsH1755 from the beginningH7218? ‘9I, the LordH3068, am the firstH7223, and with the lastH314. 10I am He.’”
5The 11coastlandsH339 have seenH7200 and areH3372 afraidH3372; The 12endsH7098 of the earthH776 trembleH2729; They have approachedH7126 and have comeH857.6EachH376 oneH376 helpsH5826 his neighborH7453 And saysH559 to his brotherH251, “Be strongH2388!”7So the 13craftsmanH2796 encouragesH2388 the 14smelterH6884, And he who smoothsH2505 metal with the hammerH6360 encourages him who beatsH1986 the anvilH6471, SayingH559 of the solderingH1694, “It is goodH2896”; And he fastensH2388 it with nailsH4548, 15So that it will not totterH4131.8“But you, IsraelH3478, 16My servantH5650, JacobH3290 whomH834 I have chosenH977, DescendantH2233 of 17AbrahamH85 My 18friendH157,
