71 Days of Isaiah Plan
In 71 days, you can experience the full power of Isaiah's prophetic words.
Today, we are reading Isaiah 42:18-43:21.
18 | Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see. |
19 | Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD's servant? |
20 | Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not. |
21 | The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honorable. |
22 | But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. |
23 | Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come? |
24 | Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law. |
25 | Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart. |
1 | But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. |
2 | When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. |
3 | For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. |
4 | Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honorable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. |
5 | Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; |
6 | I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; |
7 | Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. |
8 | Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. |
9 | Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth. |
10 | Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. |
11 | I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no savior. |
12 | I have declared, and have saved, and I have showed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. |
13 | Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it? |
14 | Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships. |
15 | I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King. |
16 | Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters; |
17 | Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow. |
18 | Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. |
19 | Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. |
20 | The beast of the field shall honor me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. |
21 | This people have I formed for myself; they shall show forth my praise. |
