Isaiah 43:14-21

14Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: “For your sake I will send to Babylon, And bring them all down as fugitives— The Chaldeans, who rejoice in their ships.

15I am the Lord, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.”

16Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters,

17Who brings forth the chariot and horse, The army and the power (They shall lie down together, they shall not rise; They are extinguished, they are quenched like a wick):

18“Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.

19Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.

20The beast of the field will honor Me, The jackals and the ostriches, Because I give waters in the wilderness And rivers in the desert, To give drink to My people, My chosen.

21This people I have formed for Myself; They shall declare My praise.
