44"But now listen, O Jacob, my servant, Israel, whom I have chosen.
2This is what the Lord says- he who made you, who formed you in the womb, and who will help you: Do not be afraid, O Jacob, my servant, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing 1 on your descendants.
4They will spring up like grass in a meadow, like poplar trees by flowing streams.
5One will say, 'I belong to the Lord '; another will call himself by the name of Jacob; still another will write on his hand, 'The Lord 's,' and will take the name Israel.
6"This is what the Lord says- Israel's King and Redeemer, the Lord Almighty 2: I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.
7Who then is like me? Let him proclaim it. Let him declare and lay out before me what has happened since I established my ancient people, and what is yet to come- yes, let him foretell 3 what will come.
8Do not tremble, do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago? You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me? No, there is no other Rock; I know not one."
9All who make idols 5 are nothing, and the things they treasure are worthless. Those who would speak up for them are blind; they are ignorant, to their own shame.
10Who shapes a god and casts an idol 4, which can profit him nothing?
11He and his kind will be put to shame; craftsmen 6 are nothing but men. Let them all come together and take their stand; they will be brought down to terror and infamy 7.
12The blacksmith takes a tool and works with it in the coals; he shapes an idol with hammers, he forges it with the might of his arm. He gets hungry and loses his strength; he drinks no water and grows faint.
13The carpenter measures with a line and makes an outline with a marker; he roughs it out with chisels 8 and marks it with compasses. He shapes it in the form of man, of man in all his glory, that it may dwell in a shrine 9.
14He cut down cedars 10, or perhaps took a cypress 11 or oak. He let it grow among the trees of the forest, or planted a pine, and the rain made it grow.
15It is man's fuel for burning; some of it he takes and warms himself, he kindles 12 a fire and bakes bread. But he also fashions a god and worships it; he makes an idol and bows down to it.
16Half of the wood he burns in the fire; over it he prepares his meal, he roasts his meat and eats his fill. He also warms himself and says, "Ah! I am warm; I see the fire."
17From the rest he makes a god, his idol; he bows down to it and worships. He prays to it and says, "Save me; you are my god."
18They know nothing, they understand nothing; their eyes are plastered over so they cannot see, and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19No one stops to think, no one has the knowledge or understanding to say, "Half of it I used for fuel; I even baked bread over its coals, I roasted meat and I ate. Shall I make a detestable thing from what is left? Shall I bow down to a block of wood?"
20He feeds on ashes, a deluded 13 heart misleads him; he cannot save himself, or say, "Is not this thing in my right hand a lie?"
21"Remember these things, O Jacob, for you are my servant, O Israel. I have made you, you are my servant; O Israel, I will not forget you.
22I have swept away your offenses 14 like a cloud, your sins like the morning mist. Return to me, for I have redeemed 15 you."
23Sing for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done this; shout aloud, O earth beneath. Burst into song, you mountains, you forests and all your trees, for the Lord has redeemed Jacob, he displays his glory in Israel.
24"This is what the Lord says- your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the Lord , who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself,
25who foils the signs of false prophets and makes fools of diviners, who overthrows 16 the learning of the wise and turns it into nonsense,
26who carries out the words of his servants and fulfills 17 the predictions of his messengers, who says of Jerusalem, 'It shall be inhabited,' of the towns of Judah, 'They shall be built,' and of their ruins, 'I will restore them,'
27who says to the watery 18 deep, 'Be dry, and I will dry up your streams,'
28who says of Cyrus, 'He is my shepherd and will accomplish all that I please; he will say of Jerusalem, "Let it be rebuilt," and of the temple, "Let its foundations be laid." '
