Isaiah 42:10-16

10SingH7891 unto YhwhH3068 a newH2319 songH7892, and his praiseH8416 from the endH7097 of the earthH776, ye that go downH3381 to the seaH3220, and all that is thereinH4393; the islesH339, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof.1

11Let the wildernessH4057 and the citiesH5892 thereof lift upH5375 their voice, the villagesH2691 that KedarH6938 doth inhabitH3427: let the inhabitantsH3427 of the rockH5553 singH7442, let them shoutH6681 from the topH7218 of the mountainsH2022.

12Let them giveH7760 gloryH3519 unto YhwhH3068, and declareH5046 his praiseH8416 in the islandsH339.

13YhwhH3068 shall go forthH3318 as a mighty manH1368, he shall stir upH5782 jealousyH7068 like a manH376 of warH4421: he shall cryH7321, yea, roarH6873; he shall prevailH1396 against his enemiesH341.2

14I have long timeH5769 holden my peaceH2814; I have been stillH2790, and refrainedH662 myself: now will I cryH6463 like a travailing womanH3205; I will destroyH8074H5395 and devourH7602 at onceH3162.3

15I will make wasteH2717 mountainsH2022 and hillsH1389, and dry upH3001 all their herbsH6212; and I will makeH7760 the riversH5104 islandsH339, and I will dry upH3001 the poolsH98.

16And I will bringH3212 the blindH5787 by a wayH1870 that they knewH3045 not; I will leadH1869 them in pathsH5410 that they have not knownH3045: I will makeH7760 darknessH4285 lightH216 beforeH6440 them, and crooked thingsH4625 straightH4334. These thingsH1697 will I doH6213 unto them, and not forsakeH5800 them.4
