Isaiah 45:1-4

1Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 to his anointedH4899, to CyrusH3566, whose right handH3225 I have holdenH2388, to subdueH7286 nationsH1471 beforeH6440 him; and I will looseH6605 the loinsH4975 of kingsH4428, to openH6605 beforeH6440 him the two leaved gatesH1817; and the gatesH8179 shall not be shutH5462;1

2I will goH3212 beforeH6440 thee, and makeH3474 the crooked placesH1921 straightH3474: I will break in piecesH7665 the gatesH1817 of brassH5154, and cut in sunderH1438 the barsH1280 of ironH1270:

3And I will giveH5414 thee the treasuresH214 of darknessH2822, and hidden richesH4301 of secret placesH4565, that thou mayest knowH3045 that I, YhwhH3068, which callH7121 thee by thy nameH8034, am the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.

4For JacobH3290 my servant’sH5650 sake, and IsraelH3478 mine electH972, I have even calledH7121 thee by thy nameH8034: I have surnamedH3655 thee, though thou hast not knownH3045 me.
