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.

Lexham English Bible
5 Thus says the God, Yahweh,
who created the heavens
and stretched them out,
who spread out the earth and its offspring,
who gives breath to the people upon it
and spirit to those who walk in it.
6 “I am Yahweh; I have called you in righteousness,
and I have grasped your hand and watched over you;
and I have given you as a covenant of the people,
as a light of the nations,
7 to open the blind eyes,
to bring the prisoner out from the dungeon,
those who sit in darkness from the house of imprisonment.
