Isaiah 43:16-21
Legacy Standard Bible
16 Thus says Yahweh,
Who (A)makes a way through the sea
And a path through the mighty waters,
17 Who brings forth the (B)chariot and the horse,
The military force and the mighty man;
They will lie down together and not rise again;
They have been (C)extinguished and quenched like a wick:
18 “(D)Do not remember the former things,
Nor carefully consider things of the past.
19 Behold, I will do something (E)new;
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not know it?
I will even (F)make a roadway in the wilderness,
Rivers in the wasteland.
20 The beasts of the field will glorify Me,
The (G)jackals and the ostriches,
Because I have (H)given waters in the wilderness
And rivers in the wasteland,
To give drink to My chosen people.
21 The people whom (I)I formed for Myself
(J)Will recount My praise.
Isaiah 43:16-21
Lexham English Bible
16 Thus says Yahweh, who makes[a] a way in the sea
and a path in the mighty waters,
17 who brings out chariot and horse,
army and mighty one.
Together they lie down;
they cannot rise.
They are extinguished,
quenched like a wick.
18 “You must not remember the former things,
and you not must consider the former things.
19 Look! I am about to do a new thing! Now it sprouts!
Do you not perceive[b] it?
Indeed, I will make[c] a way in the wilderness,
rivers in the desert.
20 The animals of the field will honor me,
jackals and daughters of the ostrich,
for I give water in the wilderness,
rivers in the desert,
to give a drink to my chosen people,
21 this people whom I formed for myself,
so they might make known[d] my praise.
