1But now listen, O Jacob My servant,
2This is the word of the LORD, your Maker,
whom I have chosen.
3For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
4They will sprout among the grass
by flowing streams.
5One will say, ‘I belong to the LORD,’
6Thus says the LORD,
7Who then is like Me?
8Do not tremble or fear.
9All makers of idols are nothing,
10Who fashions a god or casts an idol
11Behold, all his companions will be put to shame,
12The blacksmith takes a tool
13The woodworker extends a measuring line;
14He cuts down cedars
or oak.
15It serves as fuel for man.
16He burns half of it in the fire,
17From the rest he makes a god, his graven image.
18They do not comprehend or discern,
19And no one considers in his heart,
20He feeds on ashes.
21Remember these things, O Jacob,
22I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud,
23Sing for joy, O heavens, for the LORD has done this;
24Thus says the LORD,
25who foils the signs of false prophets
26who confirms the message of His servant
27who says to the depths of the sea,
28who says of Cyrus,
