26 who confirms the word of His servant
    and performs the counsel of His messengers,

who says to Jerusalem, “You shall be inhabited,”
    and to the cities of Judah, “You shall be built.”
    And I will raise up her ruins again;
27 it is I who says to the deep, “Be dried up!”
    And I will dry up your rivers;
28 it is I who says of Cyrus, “He is My shepherd,
    and shall perform all My desire”;
    and he declares to Jerusalem, “You shall be built,”
    and to the temple, “Your foundation shall be laid.”
