1Gayon ma'y dinggin mo ngayon, Oh Jacob na aking lingkod, at Israel, na aking pinili: 2Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon na lumalang sa iyo, at nagbigay anyo sa iyo mula sa bahay-bata, na siyang tutulong sa iyo; Ikaw ay huwag matakot, Oh Jacob na aking lingkod; at ikaw Jeshurun, na aking pinili. 3Sapagka't ipagbubuhos ko ng tubig siya na uhaw, at ng mga bukal ang tuyong lupa; aking ibubuhos ang aking Espiritu sa iyong lahi, at ang aking pagpapala sa iyong suwi: 4At sila'y sisibol sa gitna ng damo, gaya ng mga sauce sa tabi ng mga batis. 5Sasabihin ng isa, Ako'y sa Panginoon; at magpapangalan ang iba ng pangalang Jacob; at magsusulat ang iba ng kaniyang kamay ng sa Panginoon, at magpapamagat ng pangalan ng Israel. 6Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, ng Hari ng Israel, at ng kaniyang Manunubos, na Panginoon ng mga hukbo, Ako ang una, at ako ang huli; at liban sa akin ay walang Dios. 7At sino, na gaya ko, tatawag, at magpapahayag, at magaayos sa ganang akin, mula nang aking itatag ang matandang bayan? at ang mga bagay na dumarating, at ang mangyayari, ay ipahahayag nila. 8Kayo'y huwag mangatakot, o magsipangilabot man: hindi ko baga ipinahayag sa iyo nang una, at ipinakilala? at kayo ang aking mga saksi. May Dios baga liban sa akin? oo, walang malaking Bato; ako'y walang nakikilalang iba. 9Silang nangagbibigay anyo sa larawang inanyuan ay walang kabuluhan silang lahat; at ang kanilang mga bagay na kinaluluguran ay hindi mapapakinabangan: at ang kanilang sariling mga saksi ay hindi nangakakakita, o nangakakaalam man: upang sila'y mangapahiya. 10Sino ang naganyo sa isang dios, o bumubo ng larawang inanyuan na di pakikinabangan sa anoman? 11Narito, lahat niyang kasama ay mangapapahiya; at ang mga manggagawa ay sa mga tao: mapisan sila, magsitayo sila; sila'y mangatatakot, sila'y mangahihiyang magkakasama. 12Ang panday bakal ay gumagawa ng palakol, at gumagawa sa mga baga, at inaanyuan yaon sa pamamagitan ng mga pamukpok, at ginagawa yaon ng kaniyang malakas na bisig: oo, siya'y gutom, at ang kaniyang lakas ay nawawala; siya'y hindi umiinom ng tubig, at pata. 13Naguunat ang anluwagi ng isang pising panukat; kaniyang tinatandaan ng lapis; kaniyang inaanyuan sa pamamagitan ng mga katam, at kaniyang tinatandaan ng mga kompas, at inaanyuan ng ayon sa anyo ng tao, ayon sa kagandahan ng tao, upang tumahan sa bahay. 14Pumuputol siya sa ganang kaniya ng mga cedro, at kumukuha ng puno ng roble at ng encina, at pinatitibay sa ganang kaniyang sarili ang isa sa gitna ng mga punong kahoy sa gubat: siya'y nagtatanim ng puno ng abeto, at yao'y kinakandili ng ulan. 15Kung magkagayo'y ilalaan sa tao upang ipanggatong; at kumukuha siya niyaon, at nagpapainit; oo, kaniyang pinaliliyaban yaon, at ipinagluluto ng tinapay: oo, kaniyang ginagawang isang dios, at sinasamba; ginagawa niyang larawang inanyuan, at pinagpapatirapaan. 16Kaniyang iginagatong ang bahagi niyaon sa apoy; ang bahagi niyaon ay ikinakain niya ng karne; siya'y nagiihaw ng iihawin, at nabubusog: oo, siya'y nagpapainit, at nagsasabi, Aha, ako'y naiinitan, aking nakita ang apoy: 17At ang labis niyaon ay ginagawa niyang dios, sa makatuwid baga'y kaniyang larawang inanyuan: kaniyang pinagpapatirapaan at sinasamba, at dinadalanginan, at nagsasabi, Iligtas mo ako; sapagka't ikaw ay aking dios. 18Hindi sila mangakakaalam, o nagsisigunita man: sapagka't ipinikit niya ang kanilang mga mata, upang sila'y huwag mangakakita; at ang kanilang mga puso, upang huwag silang mangakaunawa. 19At walang nagpapaalaala o mayroon mang kaalaman, o unawa upang magsabi, Aking iginatong ang bahagi niyaon sa apoy; oo, ako naman ay nagluto ng tinapay sa mga baga niyaon; ako'y nagihaw ng karne at kinain ko: at gagawin ko baga ang nalabi niyaon na pinaka kasuklamsuklam? magpapatirapa baga ako sa puno ng isang punong kahoy? 20Siya'y kumain ng abo: iniligaw siya ng nadayang puso, at hindi niya mailigtas ang kaniyang kaluluwa, o makapagsabi, Wala bagang kabulaanan sa aking kanang kamay? 21Iyong alalahanin ang mga bagay na ito, Oh Jacob, at Israel; sapagka't ikaw ay aking lingkod: aking inanyuan ka; ikaw ay aking lingkod: Oh Israel, ikaw ay hindi ko malilimutan. 22Aking pinawi na parang masinsing ulap ang iyong mga pagsalangsang, at, parang alapaap, ang iyong mga kasalanan: manumbalik ka sa akin; sapagka't tinubos kita. 23Magsiawit, Oh kayong mga langit, sapagka't nilikha ng Panginoon; kayo'y magsihiyaw, mga lalong mababang bahagi ng lupa: kayo'y magbiglang magsiawit, kayong mga bundok, Oh gubat, at bawa't punong kahoy na nandiyan: sapagka't tinubos ng Panginoon ang Jacob, at magpapakaluwalhati sa Israel. 24Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, ng iyong Manunubos, at niyang naganyo sa iyo mula sa bahay-bata, Ako ang Panginoon na gumagawa ng lahat na bagay; na naglaladlad, na magisa ng langit; na naglalatag ng lupa; 25Na sumisira ng mga tanda ng mga sinungaling, at nagpapaging ulol sa mga manghuhula; na nagpapaurong sa mga pantas, at nagpapaging kamangmangan ng kanilang kaalaman; 26Na nagpapatatag ng salita ng kaniyang lingkod, at nagsasagawa ng payo ng kaniyang mga sugo; na nagsasabi ng tungkol sa Jerusalem, Siya'y tatahan; at tungkol sa mga bayan ng Juda, Mangatatayo, at aking ibabangon ang mga sirang dako niyaon: 27Na nagsasabi sa kalaliman, Ikaw ay matuyo, at aking tutuyuin ang iyong mga ilog; 28Na nagsasabi tungkol kay Ciro, Siya'y aking pastor, at isasagawa ang lahat kong kaligayahan: na nagsasabi nga rin tungkol sa Jerusalem, Siya'y matatayo; at sa templo, Ang iyong patibayan ay malalagay.
1Yet listen now, Jacob my servant, and Israel, whom I have chosen. 2This is what Yahweh who made you, and formed you from the womb, who will help you says: “Don’t be afraid, Jacob my servant; and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen. 3For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and streams on the dry ground. I will pour my Spirit on your seed, and my blessing on your offspring: 4and they will spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses. 5One will say, ‘I am Yahweh’s;’ and another will be called by the name of Jacob; and another will write with his hand ‘to Yahweh,’ and honor the name of Israel.” 6This is what Yahweh, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, Yahweh of Armies, says: “I am the first, and I am the last; and besides me there is no God. 7Who is like me? Who will call, and will declare it, and set it in order for me, since I established the ancient people? Let them declare the things that are coming, and that will happen. 8Don’t fear, neither be afraid. Haven’t I declared it to you long ago, and shown it? You are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? Indeed, there is not. I don’t know any other Rock.” 9Everyone who makes an engraved image is vain. The things that they delight in will not profit. Their own witnesses don’t see, nor know, that they may be disappointed. 10Who has fashioned a god, or molds an image that is profitable for nothing? 11Behold, all his fellows will be disappointed; and the workmen are mere men. Let them all be gathered together. Let them stand up. They will fear. They will be put to shame together. 12The blacksmith takes an ax, works in the coals, fashions it with hammers, and works it with his strong arm. He is hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks no water, and is faint. 13The carpenter stretches out a line. He marks it out with a pencil. He shapes it with planes. He marks it out with compasses, and shapes it like the figure of a man, with the beauty of a man, to reside in a house. 14He cuts down cedars for himself, and takes the cypress and the oak, and strengthens for himself one among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir tree, and the rain nourishes it. 15Then it will be for a man to burn; and he takes some of it, and warms himself. Yes, he burns it, and bakes bread. Yes, he makes a god, and worships it; he makes it an engraved image, and falls down to it. 16He burns part of it in the fire. With part of it, he eats meat. He roasts a roast, and is satisfied. Yes, he warms himself, and says, “Aha! I am warm. I have seen the fire.” 17The rest of it he makes into a god, even his engraved image. He bows down to it and worships, and prays to it, and says, “Deliver me; for you are my god!” 18They don’t know, neither do they consider: for he has shut their eyes, that they can’t see; and their hearts, that they can’t understand. 19No one thinks, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, “I have burned part of it in the fire. Yes, I have also baked bread on its coals. I have roasted meat and eaten it. Shall I make the rest of it into an abomination? Shall I bow down to a tree trunk?” 20He feeds on ashes. A deceived heart has turned him aside; and he can’t deliver his soul, nor say, “Isn’t there a lie in my right hand?” 21Remember these things, Jacob and Israel; for you are my servant. I have formed you. You are my servant. Israel, you will not be forgotten by me. 22I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, your transgressions, and, as a cloud, your sins. Return to me, for I have redeemed you. 23Sing, you heavens, for Yahweh has done it! Shout, you lower parts of the earth! Break out into singing, you mountains, O forest, all of your trees, for Yahweh has redeemed Jacob, and will glorify himself in Israel. 24Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb: “I am Yahweh, who makes all things; who alone stretches out the heavens; who spreads out the earth by myself; 25who frustrates the signs of the liars, and makes diviners mad; who turns wise men backward, and makes their knowledge foolish; 26who confirms the word of his servant, and performs the counsel of his messengers; who says of Jerusalem, ‘She will be inhabited;’ and of the cities of Judah, ‘They will be built,’ and ‘I will raise up its waste places;’ 27who says to the deep, ‘Be dry,’ and ‘I will dry up your rivers;’ 28Who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure,’ even saying of Jerusalem, ‘She will be built;’ and of the temple, ‘Your foundation will be laid.’”
1Maar hoor nu Mijn knecht Jakob, en Israel, dien Ik verkoren heb! 2Zo zegt de HEERE, uw Maker, en uw Formeerder van den buik af, Die u helpt: Vrees niet, o Jakob, Mijn knecht, en gij, Jeschurun, dien Ik uitverkoren heb! 3Want Ik zal water gieten op de dorstigen, en stromen op het droge; Ik zal Mijn Geest op uw zaad gieten, en Mijn zegen op uw nakomelingen. 4En zij zullen uitspruiten tussen in het gras, als de wilgen aan de waterbeken. 5Deze zal zeggen: Ik ben des HEEREN; en die zal zich noemen met den naam van Jakob; en gene zal met zijn hand schrijven: Ik ben des HEEREN, en zich toenoemen met den naam van Israel. 6Zo zegt de HEERE, de Koning van Israel, en zijn Verlosser, de HEERE der heirscharen: Ik ben de Eerste, en Ik ben de Laatste, en behalve Mij is er geen God. 7En wie zal, gelijk als Ik, roepen en het verkondigen, en het ordentelijk voor Mij stellen, sedert dat Ik een eeuwig volk gesteld heb? en laat ze de toekomstige dingen, en die komen zullen, hun verkondigen. 8Verschrikt niet, en vreest niet; heb Ik het u van toen af niet doen horen en verkondigd? Want gijlieden zijt Mijn getuigen: is er ook een God behalve Mij? Immers, er is geen andere rotssteen: Ik ken er geen? 9De formeerders van gesneden beelden zijn al te zamen ijdelheid, en hun gewenste dingen doen geen nut; ja, zij zelven zijn hun getuigen; zij zien niet, en zij weten niet, daarom zullen zij beschaamd worden. 10Wie formeert een god, en giet een beeld, dat geen nut doet? 11Ziet, al hun medegenoten zullen beschaamd worden, want de werkmeesters zijn uit de mensen; dat zij zich altemaal vergaderen, dat zij opstaan, zij zullen verschrikken, zij zullen te zamen beschaamd worden. 12De ijzersmid maakt een bijl, en werkt in den gloed, en formeert het met hamers, en werkt het met zijn sterken arm; ook lijdt hij honger, totdat hij krachteloos wordt, hij drinkt geen water, totdat hij amechtig wordt. 13De timmerman trekt het richtsnoer uit, hij tekent het af met den draad, hij maakt het effen met de schaven, en tekent het met den passer, en maakt het naar de beeltenis eens mans, naar de schoonheid van een mens, dat het in het huis blijve. 14Als hij zich cederen afhouwt, zo neemt hij een cypressenboom of een eik, en hij versterkt zich onder de bomen des wouds; hij plant een olmboom, en de regen maakt dien groot. 15Dan is het voor den mens om te verbranden, dan neemt hij daarvan, en warmt er zich bij; ook ontsteekt hij het, en bakt er brood bij; daarenboven maakt hij er een god van, en buigt zich daarvoor, hij maakt er een gesneden beeld van, en knielt er voor neder. 16Zijn helft brandt hij in het vuur, bij de andere helft daarvan eet hij vlees; hij braadt een gebraad, en hij wordt verzadigd; ook warmt hij zichzelven, en hij zegt: Hei! ik ben warm geworden, ik heb het vuur gezien! 17Het overige nu daarvan maakt hij tot een god, tot zijn gesneden beeld; hij knielt er voor neder, en buigt zich, en bidt het aan, en zegt: Red mij, want gij zijt mijn god! 18Zij weten niet, en verstaan niet, want het heeft hun ogen bestreken, dat zij niet zien, en hun harten, dat zij niet verstaan. 19En niemand van hen brengt het in zijn hart, en er is noch kennis noch verstand, dat hij zeggen zou: De helft daarvan heb ik verbrand in het vuur, ja, ook op de kolen daarvan heb ik brood gebakken, ik heb vlees daarbij gebraden, en heb het gegeten; en zou ik het overblijfsel daarvan tot een gruwel maken, zou ik nederknielen voor hetgeen van een boom gekomen is? 20Hij voedt zich met as, het bedrogen hart heeft hem ter zijde afgeleid; zodat hij zijn ziel niet redden kan, noch zeggen: Is er niet een leugen in mijn rechterhand? 21Gedenk aan deze dingen, o Jakob, en Israel! Want gij zijt Mijn knecht, Ik heb u geformeerd; gij zijt Mijn knecht, Israel, gij zult van Mij niet vergeten worden. 22Ik delg uw overtredingen uit als een nevel, en uw zonden als een wolk; keer weder tot Mij, want Ik heb u verlost. 23Zingt met vreugde, gij hemelen! want de HEERE heeft het gedaan; juicht, gij benedenste delen der aarde! gij bergen! maakt een groot gedreun met vreugdegezang, gij bossen, en alle geboomte daarin! Want de HEERE heeft Jakob verlost, en Zich heerlijk gemaakt in Israel. 24Alzo zegt de HEERE, uw Verlosser, en die u geformeerd heeft van den buik af: Ik ben de HEERE, Die alles doet, Die den hemel uitbreidt, Ik alleen, en Die de aarde uitspant door Mijzelven; 25Die de tekenen der leugendichters vernietigt, en de waarzeggers dol maakt; Die de wijzen achterwaarts doet keren, en Die hun wetenschap verdwaast; 26Die het woord Zijns knechts bevestigt, en den raad Zijner boden volbrengt; Die tot Jeruzalem zegt: Gij zult bewoond worden; en tot de steden van Juda: Gij zult herbouwd worden, en Ik zal haar verwoeste plaatsen oprichten. 27Die tot de diepte zegt: Verdroog, en uw rivieren zal Ik verdrogen. 28Die van Cores zegt: Hij is Mijn herder, en hij zal al Mijn welgevallen volbrengen; zeggende ook tot Jeruzalem: Word gebouwd; en tot den tempel: Word gegrond.
