Isaiah 42:5-7
English Standard Version
5 Thus says God, the Lord,
who created the heavens (A)and stretched them out,
who spread out the earth and what comes from it,
(B)who gives breath to the people on it
and spirit to those who walk in it:
6 “I am the Lord; (C)I have called you[a] in righteousness;
I will take you by the hand and keep you;
I will give you (D)as a covenant for the people,
(E)a light for the nations,
7 (F)to open the eyes that are blind,
to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon,
(G)from the prison those who sit in darkness.
