Исаия 44

44 Но сега слушай, служителю Мой, Якове, И Израилю, когото Аз избрах:
2 Така казва Господ, Който те е направил, И те е създал в утробата, и ще ти помага: Не бий се, служителю Мой, Якове, И ти, Ерусалиме, когото Аз избрах,
3 Защото ще изливам вода на жадната земя , И реки на сухата почва; Ще изливам Духа Си на потомството ти, И благословението Си на рожбите ти;
4 И те ще поникнат между тревата Като върби край течащи води.
5 Един ще казва: Аз съм Господен; Друг ще се нарича с Якововото име; А друг ще подписва с ръката си, че ще служи Господу, И ще произнася с почит Израилевото име.
6 Така казва Господ, Царят на Израиля, Неговият изкупител, Господ на Силите: Аз съм първият, Аз и последният, И освен Мене няма Бог.
7 Откак съм настанил древните люде Кой може да прогласи както Аз? Нека възвести това и Ми го изложи; Нека им известят идните и бъдещите неща.
8 Не бойте се нито се страхувайте; Не възвестих ли ти Аз от древността, и ти показах това? И вие сте Ми свидетели, - Има ли бог освен Мене? Наистина няма канара: Аз не познавам такъв .
9 Всички, които образуват изваяни идоли, са за посрамление; И многожелателните им неща са безполезни; И те сами им са свидетели; не виждат нито разбират, За да се засрамят.
10 Кой е оня , който прави един бог, Или излива изваян идол, съвсем безполезен?
11 Ето, всичките му привърженици ще се засрамят; А художниците, които и те са от човеци, Нека се съберат всички, нека застанат; Ще са убоят, ще се засрамят всички.
12 Ковачът кове брадва. Работи я във въглищата, и я образува с чукове, Работещ със силната си мишца, Дори огладнява и изнемощява; Вода ако не пие ослабва.
13 Дърводелецът простира връв, начертава идола с тебешир, Изработва го с длета, начертава го с пергел, И образува го по човешки образ, според човешка красота, За да стои в къщи
14 Отсичайки си кедри. И вземайки пърнар и дъб, Той си бе избрал между горските дървета едно, Та бе насадил бор; и дъждът го е правил да расте.
15 Тогава, като е станал на човека за горене, Той взема от него и се топли, Още го гори и пече хляб; И същото прави бог та му се кланя, Прави го изваян идол та коленичи пред него!
16 Една част от него той изгаря в огън, С друга част готви месо да яде, Изпича печиво и се насища. Грее се и казва: Ох! стоплих се! върху огъня!
17 И останалото от него прави бог, изваяния си идол. Коленичи пред него и му се кланя, И му се моли казвайки: Избави ме, защото ти си мой бог!
18 Те не знаят нито разсъждават; Защото са замазани очите им, за да не гледат, И сърцата им-за да не разбират:
19 И никой не взема на сърцето си, Нито има знание или разум та да рече: Част от него изгорих на огън, Още и хляб изпекох на въглищата му Опекох и месо та ядох: И да правя ли останалото от него гнусота? Да се поклоня ли на нещо станало от дърво?
20 Той се храни с пепел; измаменото му сърце го заблуди, Та не може да отърве душата си нито да рече: Това нещо в десницата ми не е ли лъжа?
21 Помни това, Якове, И Израилю, защото си Ми служител; Аз те създадох; Мой служител си; Израилю, няма да бъдеш забравен от Мене,
22 Изличих като гъста мъгла престъпленията ти, И като облак греховете ти; Върни се при мене, защото Аз те изкупих
23 Възпей радостно, небе, защото Господ извърши това; Възкликнете, по-долни земни части; Запейте весело, планини, Горо и всички дървета в нея, Защото Господ изкупи Якова, И се прослави в Израиля.
24 Така казва Господ изкупителят ти, Който те е образувал в утробата: Аз съм Господ, Който извърших всичко; Който сам разпрострях небето, И сам разтлах земята;
25 Който осуетявам знаменията на лъжците, И правя да избезумеят чародеите; Който превръщам мъдрите, И обръщам знанието им в глупост;
26 Който потвърждавам думата на Своя служител, И изпълнявам изявеното от Моите пратеници; Който казвам за Ерусалим: Ще се насели, И за градовете на Юда: Ще се съградят, И Аз ще възстановя разрушеното в него;
27 Който казвам на бездната: Изсъхни, И Аз ще пресуша реките ти;
28 Който казвам за Кира: Той е Моят овчар. Който ще изпълни всичко, което Ми е угодно, Даже, когато кажа на Ерусалим: Ще се съгради, И на храма: Ще се положат основите ти.

Isaiah 44
New International Version
Israel the Chosen
44 “But now listen, Jacob, my servant,(A)
Israel, whom I have chosen.(B)
2 This is what the Lord says—
he who made(C) you, who formed you in the womb,(D)
and who will help(E) you:
Do not be afraid,(F) Jacob, my servant,(G)
Jeshurun,[a](H) whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water(I) on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;(J)
I will pour out my Spirit(K) on your offspring,
and my blessing(L) on your descendants.(M)
4 They will spring up like grass(N) in a meadow,
like poplar trees(O) by flowing streams.(P)
5 Some will say, ‘I belong(Q) to the Lord’;
others will call themselves by the name of Jacob;
still others will write on their hand,(R) ‘The Lord’s,’(S)
and will take the name Israel.
The Lord, Not Idols
6 “This is what the Lord says—
Israel’s King(T) and Redeemer,(U) the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;(V)
apart from me there is no God.(W)
7 Who then is like me?(X) 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 them foretell(Y) what will come.
8 Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
Did I not proclaim(Z) this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God(AA) besides me?
No, there is no other Rock;(AB) I know not one.”
9 All who make idols(AC) are nothing,
and the things they treasure are worthless.(AD)
Those who would speak up for them are blind;(AE)
they are ignorant, to their own shame.(AF)
10 Who shapes a god and casts an idol,(AG)
which can profit nothing?(AH)
11 People who do that will be put to shame;(AI)
such craftsmen are only human beings.
Let them all come together and take their stand;
they will be brought down to terror and shame.(AJ)
12 The blacksmith(AK) 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.(AL)
He gets hungry and loses his strength;
he drinks no water and grows faint.(AM)
13 The carpenter(AN) measures with a line
and makes an outline with a marker;
he roughs it out with chisels
and marks it with compasses.
He shapes it in human form,(AO)
human form in all its glory,
that it may dwell in a shrine.(AP)
14 He cut down cedars,
or perhaps took a cypress or oak.
He let it grow among the trees of the forest,
or planted a pine,(AQ) and the rain made it grow.
15 It is used as fuel(AR) for burning;
some of it he takes and warms himself,
he kindles a fire and bakes bread.
But he also fashions a god and worships(AS) it;
he makes an idol and bows(AT) down to it.
16 Half 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.(AU)”
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.(AV)
He prays(AW) to it and says,
“Save(AX) me! You are my god!”
18 They know nothing, they understand(AY) nothing;
their eyes(AZ) are plastered over so they cannot see,
and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19 No one stops to think,
no one has the knowledge or understanding(BA) to say,
“Half of it I used for fuel;(BB)
I even baked bread over its coals,
I roasted meat and I ate.
Shall I make a detestable(BC) thing from what is left?
Shall I bow down to a block of wood?”(BD)
20 Such a person feeds on ashes;(BE) a deluded(BF) heart misleads him;
he cannot save himself, or say,
“Is not this thing in my right hand a lie?(BG)”
21 “Remember(BH) these things, Jacob,
for you, Israel, are my servant.(BI)
I have made you, you are my servant;(BJ)
Israel, I will not forget you.(BK)
22 I have swept away(BL) your offenses like a cloud,
your sins like the morning mist.
Return(BM) to me,
for I have redeemed(BN) you.”
23 Sing for joy,(BO) you heavens, for the Lord has done this;
shout aloud, you earth(BP) beneath.
Burst into song, you mountains,(BQ)
you forests and all your trees,(BR)
for the Lord has redeemed(BS) Jacob,
he displays his glory(BT) in Israel.
Jerusalem to Be Inhabited
I am the Lord,
the Maker of all things,
who stretches out the heavens,(BX)
who spreads out the earth(BY) by myself,
25 who foils(BZ) the signs of false prophets
and makes fools of diviners,(CA)
who overthrows the learning of the wise(CB)
and turns it into nonsense,(CC)
26 who carries out the words(CD) of his servants
and fulfills(CE) the predictions of his messengers,
who says of Jerusalem,(CF) ‘It shall be inhabited,’
of the towns of Judah, ‘They shall be rebuilt,’
and of their ruins,(CG) ‘I will restore them,’(CH)
27 who says to the watery deep, ‘Be dry,
and I will dry up(CI) your streams,’
28 who says of Cyrus,(CJ) ‘He is my shepherd
and will accomplish all that I please;
he will say of Jerusalem,(CK) “Let it be rebuilt,”
and of the temple,(CL) “Let its foundations(CM) be laid.”’

God’s Blessing on Israel
44 “Yet hear now, O Jacob My servant,
And Israel whom I have chosen.
2 Thus says the Lord who made you
And formed you from the womb, who will help you:
‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant;
And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water on him who is thirsty,
And floods on the dry ground;
I will pour My Spirit on your descendants,
And My blessing on your offspring;
4 They will spring up among the grass
Like willows by the watercourses.’
5 One will say, ‘I am the Lord’s’;
Another will call himself by the name of Jacob;
Another will write with his hand, ‘The Lord’s,’
And name himself by the name of Israel.
There Is No Other God
6 “Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel,
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
(A)‘I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God.
7 And (B)who can proclaim as I do?
Then let him declare it and set it in order for Me,
Since I appointed the ancient people.
And the things that are coming and shall come,
Let them show these to them.
8 Do not fear, nor be afraid;
(C)Have I not told you from that time, and declared it?
(D)You are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
Indeed (E)there is no other Rock;
I know not one.’ ”
Idolatry Is Foolishness
9 (F)Those who make an image, all of them are useless,
And their precious things shall not profit;
They are their own witnesses;
(G)They neither see nor know, that they may be ashamed.
10 Who would form a god or mold an image
(H)That profits him nothing?
11 Surely all his companions would be (I)ashamed;
And the workmen, they are mere men.
Let them all be gathered together,
Let them stand up;
Yet they shall fear,
They shall be ashamed together.
12 (J)The blacksmith with the tongs works one in the coals,
Fashions it with hammers,
And works it with the strength of his arms.
Even so, he is hungry, and his strength fails;
He drinks no water and is faint.
13 The craftsman stretches out his rule,
He marks one out with chalk;
He fashions it with a plane,
He marks it out with the compass,
And makes it like the figure of a man,
According to the beauty of a man, that it may remain in the house.
14 He cuts down cedars for himself,
And takes the cypress and the oak;
He [a]secures it for himself among the trees of the forest.
He plants a pine, and the rain nourishes it.
15 Then it shall be for a man to burn,
For he will take some of it and warm himself;
Yes, he kindles it and bakes bread;
Indeed he makes a god and worships it;
He makes it a carved image, and falls down to it.
16 He burns half of it in the fire;
With this half he eats meat;
He roasts a roast, and is satisfied.
He even warms himself and says,
“Ah! I am warm,
I have seen the fire.”
17 And the rest of it he makes into a god,
His carved image.
He falls down before it and worships it,
Prays to it and says,
“Deliver me, for you are my god!”
18 (K)They do not know nor understand;
For (L)He has [b]shut their eyes, so that they cannot see,
And their hearts, so that they cannot (M)understand.
19 And no one (N)considers in his heart,
Nor is there knowledge nor understanding to say,
“I have burned half of it in the fire,
Yes, I have also baked bread on its coals;
I have roasted meat and eaten it;
And shall I make the rest of it an abomination?
Shall I fall down before a block of wood?”
20 He feeds on ashes;
(O)A deceived heart has turned him aside;
And he cannot deliver his soul,
Nor say, “Is there not a (P)lie in my right hand?”
Israel Is Not Forgotten
21 “Remember these, O Jacob,
And Israel, for you are My servant;
I have formed you, you are My servant;
O Israel, you will not be (Q)forgotten by Me!
22 (R)I have blotted out, like a thick cloud, your transgressions,
And like a cloud, your sins.
Return to Me, for (S)I have redeemed you.”
23 (T)Sing, O heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout, you lower parts of the earth;
Break forth into singing, you mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And (U)glorified Himself in Israel.
Judah Will Be Restored
24 Thus says the Lord, (V)your Redeemer,
And (W)He who formed you from the womb:
“I am the Lord, who makes all things,
(X)Who stretches out the heavens [c]all alone,
Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself;
25 Who (Y)frustrates the signs (Z)of the babblers,
And drives diviners mad;
Who turns wise men backward,
(AA)And makes their knowledge foolishness;
26 (AB)Who confirms the word of His servant,
And performs the counsel of His messengers;
Who says to Jerusalem, ‘You shall be inhabited,’
To the cities of Judah, ‘You shall be built,’
And I will raise up her waste places;
27 (AC)Who says to the deep, ‘Be dry!
And I will dry up your rivers’;
28 Who says of (AD)Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd,
And he shall perform all My pleasure,
Saying to Jerusalem, (AE)“You shall be built,”
And to the temple, “Your foundation shall be laid.” ’
