Isaiah 50:4-9

4The LordH136 YhwhH3069 hath givenH5414 me the tongueH3956 of the learnedH3928, that I should knowH3045 how to speakH5790 a wordH1697 in season to him that is wearyH3287: he wakenethH5782 morningH1242 by morningH1242, he wakenethH5782 mine earH241 to hearH8085 as the learnedH3928.

5The LordH136 YhwhH3069 hath openedH6605 mine earH241, and I was not rebelliousH4784, neither turned awayH5472 backH268. 6I gaveH5414 my backH1460 to the smitersH5221, and my cheeksH3895 to them that plucked offH4803 the hair: I hidH5641 not my faceH6440 from shameH3639 and spittingH7536.

7For the LordH136 YhwhH3069 will helpH5826 me; therefore shall I not be confoundedH3637: therefore have I setH7760 my faceH6440 like a flintH2496, and I knowH3045 that I shall not be ashamedH954. 8He is nearH7138 that justifiethH6663 me; who will contendH7378 with me? let us standH5975 togetherH3162: who is mine adversaryH4941H1167? let him come nearH5066 to me.1 9Behold, the LordH136 YhwhH3069 will helpH5826 me; who is he that shall condemnH7561 me? lo, they all shall wax oldH1086 as a garmentH899; the mothH6211 shall eat them upH398.
