Isaiah 42:5-9

New King James Version

⁵ Thus says God the Lord,
^(A)Who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it,
^(B)Who gives breath to the people on it,
And spirit to those who walk on it:
⁶ “I,^(C) the Lord, have called You in righteousness,
And will hold Your hand;
I will keep You ^(D)and give You as a covenant to the people,
As ^(E)a light to the Gentiles,
^7 (F)To open blind eyes,
To ^(G)bring out prisoners from the prison,
Those who sit in ^(H)darkness from the prison house.
⁸ I am the Lord, that is My name;
And My ^(I)glory I will not give to another,
Nor My praise to carved images.
⁹ Behold, the former things have come to pass,
And new things I declare;
Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”
