Isaiah - Chapter 42

Isa 42:1	¶	Behold my servant ⁵⁶⁵⁰, whom I uphold ⁸⁵⁵¹ ; mine elect ⁹⁷², [in whom] my soul ⁵³¹⁵ delighteth ⁷⁵²¹ ; I have put ⁵⁴¹⁴ my spirit ⁷³⁰⁷ upon him: he shall bring forth ³³¹⁸ judgment ⁴⁹⁴¹ to the Gentiles ¹⁴⁷¹.
Isa 42:2		He shall not cry ⁶⁸¹⁷ , nor lift up ⁵³⁷⁵ , nor cause his voice ⁶⁹⁶³ to be heard ⁸⁰⁸⁵ in the street ²³⁵¹.
Isa 42:3		A bruised ⁷⁵³³ reed ⁷⁰⁷⁰ shall he not break ⁷⁶⁶⁵ , and the smoking ³⁵⁴⁴ flax ⁶⁵⁹⁴ shall he not quench ³⁵¹⁸ : he shall bring forth ³³¹⁸ judgment ⁴⁹⁴¹ unto truth ⁵⁷¹.
Isa 42:4		He shall not fail ³⁵⁴³ nor be discouraged ⁷⁵³³ , till he have set ⁷⁷⁶⁰ judgment ⁴⁹⁴¹ in the earth ⁷⁷⁶: and the isles ³³⁹ shall wait ³¹⁷⁶ for his law ⁸⁴⁵¹.
Isa 42:5	¶	Thus saith ⁵⁵⁹ God ⁴¹⁰ the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸, he that created ¹²⁵⁴ the heavens ⁸⁰⁶⁴, and stretched them out ⁵¹⁸⁶ ; he that spread forth ⁷⁵⁵⁴ the earth ⁷⁷⁶, and that which cometh out ⁶⁶³¹ of it; he that giveth ⁵⁴¹⁴ breath ⁵³⁹⁷ unto the people ⁵⁹⁷¹ upon it, and spirit ⁷³⁰⁷ to them that walk ¹⁹⁸⁰ therein:
Isa 42:6		I the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ have called ⁷¹²¹ thee in righteousness ⁶⁶⁶⁴, and will hold ²³⁸⁸ thine hand ³⁰²⁷, and will keep ⁵³⁴¹ thee, and give ⁵⁴¹⁴ thee for a covenant ¹²⁸⁵ of the people ⁵⁹⁷¹, for a light ²¹⁶ of the Gentiles ¹⁴⁷¹;
Isa 42:7		To open ⁶⁴⁹¹ the blind ⁵⁷⁸⁷ eyes ⁵⁸⁶⁹, to bring out ³³¹⁸ the prisoners ⁶¹⁶ from the prison ⁴⁵²⁵, [and] them that sit ³⁴²⁷ in darkness ²⁸²² out of the prison ³⁶⁰⁸ house ¹⁰⁰⁴.
Isa 42:8		I [am] the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸: that [is] my name ⁸⁰³⁴: and my glory ³⁵¹⁹ will I not give ⁵⁴¹⁴ to another ³¹², neither my praise ⁸⁴¹⁶ to graven images ⁶⁴⁵⁶.
Isa 42:9		Behold, the former things ⁷²²³ are come to pass ⁹³⁵ , and new things ²³¹⁹ do I declare ⁵⁰⁴⁶ : before they spring forth ⁶⁷⁷⁹ I tell ⁸⁰⁸⁵ you of them.
Isa 42:10	¶	Sing ⁷⁸⁹¹ unto the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ a new ²³¹⁹ song ⁷⁸⁹², [and] his praise ⁸⁴¹⁶ from the end ⁷⁰⁹⁷ of the earth ⁷⁷⁶, ye that go down ³³⁸¹ to the sea ³²²⁰, and all that is therein ⁴³⁹³; the isles ³³⁹, and the inhabitants ³⁴²⁷ thereof.
Isa 42:11		Let the wilderness ⁴⁰⁵⁷ and the cities ⁵⁸⁹² thereof lift up ⁵³⁷⁵ [their voice], the villages ²⁶⁹¹ [that] Kedar ⁶⁹³⁸ doth inhabit ³⁴²⁷ : let the inhabitants ³⁴²⁷ of the rock ⁵⁵⁵³ sing ⁷⁴⁴² , let them shout ⁶⁶⁸¹ from the top ⁷²¹⁸ of the mountains ²⁰²².
Isa 42:12		Let them give ⁷⁷⁶⁰ glory ³⁵¹⁹ unto the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸, and declare ⁵⁰⁴⁶ his praise ⁸⁴¹⁶ in the islands ³³⁹.
Isa 42:13		The LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ shall go forth ³³¹⁸ as a mighty man ¹³⁶⁸, he shall stir up ⁵⁷⁸² jealousy ⁷⁰⁶⁸ like a man ³⁷⁶ of war ⁴⁴²¹: he shall cry ⁷³²¹ , yea, roar ⁶⁸⁷³ ; he shall prevail ¹³⁹⁶ against his enemies ³⁴¹ .
Isa 42:14	¶	I have long time ⁵⁷⁶⁹ holden my peace ²⁸¹⁴ ; I have been still ²⁷⁹⁰ , [and] refrained ⁶⁶² myself: [now] will I cry ⁶⁴⁶³ like a travailing woman ³²⁰⁵ ; I will destroy ⁵³⁹⁵ ⁸⁰⁷⁴ and devour ⁷⁶⁰² at once ³¹⁶².
Isa 42:15		I will make waste ²⁷¹⁷ mountains ²⁰²² and hills ¹³⁸⁹, and dry up ³⁰⁰¹ all their herbs ⁶²¹²; and I will make ⁷⁷⁶⁰ the rivers ⁵¹⁰⁴ islands ³³⁹, and I will dry up ³⁰⁰¹ the pools ⁹⁸.
Isa 42:16		And I will bring ³²¹² the blind ⁵⁷⁸⁷ by a way ¹⁸⁷⁰ [that] they knew ³⁰⁴⁵ not; I will lead ¹⁸⁶⁹ them in paths ⁵⁴¹⁰ [that] they have not known ³⁰⁴⁵ : I will make ⁷⁷⁶⁰ darkness ⁴²⁸⁵ light ²¹⁶ before ⁶⁴⁴⁰ them, and crooked things ⁴⁶²⁵ straight ⁴³³⁴. These things ¹⁶⁹⁷ will I do ⁶²¹³ unto them, and not forsake ⁵⁸⁰⁰ them.
Isa 42:17		They shall be turned ⁵⁴⁷² back ²⁶⁸, they shall be greatly ¹³²² ashamed ⁹⁵⁴ , that trust ⁹⁸² in graven images ⁶⁴⁵⁹, that say ⁵⁵⁹ to the molten images ⁴⁵⁴¹, Ye [are] our gods ⁴³⁰.
Isa 42:18	¶	Hear ⁸⁰⁸⁵ , ye deaf ²⁷⁹⁵; and look ⁵⁰²⁷ , ye blind ⁵⁷⁸⁷, that ye may see ⁷²⁰⁰ .
Isa 42:19		Who [is] blind ⁵⁷⁸⁷, but my servant ⁵⁶⁵⁰? or deaf ²⁷⁹⁵, as my messenger ⁴³⁹⁷ [that] I sent ⁷⁹⁷¹ ? who [is] blind ⁵⁷⁸⁷ as [he that is] perfect ⁷⁹⁹⁹ , and blind ⁵⁷⁸⁷ as the LORD'S ³⁰⁶⁸ servant ⁵⁶⁵⁰?
Isa 42:20		Seeing ⁷²⁰⁰ ⁷²⁰⁰ many things ⁷²²⁷, but thou observest ⁸¹⁰⁴ not; opening ⁶⁴⁹¹ the ears ²⁴¹, but he heareth ⁸⁰⁸⁵ not.
Isa 42:21	¶	The LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ is well pleased ²⁶⁵⁴ for his righteousness ⁶⁶⁶⁴' sake; he will magnify ¹⁴³¹ the law ⁸⁴⁵¹, and make [it] honourable ¹⁴² .
Isa 42:22		But this [is] a people ⁵⁹⁷¹ robbed ⁹⁶² and spoiled ⁸¹⁵⁴ ; [they are] all of them snared ⁶³⁵¹ in holes ²³⁵² ⁹⁷⁰, and they are hid ²²⁴⁴ in prison ³⁶⁰⁸ houses ¹⁰⁰⁴: they are for a prey ⁹⁵⁷, and none delivereth ⁵³³⁷ ; for a spoil ⁴⁹³³, and none saith ⁵⁵⁹ , Restore ⁷⁷²⁵ .
Isa 42:23	¶	Who among you will give ear ²³⁸ to this? [who] will hearken ⁷¹⁸¹ and hear ⁸⁰⁸⁵ for the time to come ²⁶⁸?
Isa 42:24		Who gave ⁵⁴¹⁴ Jacob ³²⁹⁰ for a spoil ⁴⁹³³ ⁴⁸⁸², and Israel ³⁴⁷⁸ to the robbers ⁹⁶² ? did not the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸, he against whom ²⁰⁹⁸ we have sinned ²³⁹⁸ ? for they would ¹⁴ not walk ¹⁹⁸⁰ in his ways ¹⁸⁷⁰, neither were they obedient ⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto his law ⁸⁴⁵¹.
Isa 42:25		Therefore he hath poured ⁸²¹⁰ upon him the fury ²⁵³⁴ of his anger ⁶³⁹, and the strength ⁵⁸⁰⁷ of battle ⁴⁴²¹: and it hath set him on fire ³⁸⁵⁷ round about ⁵⁴³⁹, yet he knew ³⁰⁴⁵ not; and it burned ¹¹⁹⁷ him, yet he laid ⁷⁷⁶⁰ [it] not to heart ³⁸²⁰.
