Isaiah 43:16-21
English Standard Version
16 Thus says the Lord,
(A)who makes a way in the sea,
a path in the mighty waters,
17 who (B)brings forth chariot and horse,
army and warrior;
they lie down, they cannot rise,
(C)they are extinguished, (D)quenched like a wick:
18 (E)“Remember not the former things,
nor consider the things of old.
19 (F)Behold, I am doing a new thing;
now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
(G)I will make a way in the wilderness
(H)and rivers in the desert.
20 The wild beasts will honor me,
(I)the jackals and the ostriches,
(J)for I give water in the wilderness,
rivers in the desert,
to give drink to my chosen people,
21 the people whom I formed for myself
(K)that they might declare my praise.
