Isaiah 50:1-3
World English Bible
50 Yahweh says, “Where is the bill of your mother’s divorce, with which I have put her away?
Or to which of my creditors have I sold you?
Behold, you were sold for your iniquities,
and your mother was put away for your transgressions.
2 Why, when I came, was there no one?
When I called, why was there no one to answer?
Is my hand shortened at all, that it can’t redeem?
Or have I no power to deliver?
Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea.
I make the rivers a wilderness.
Their fish stink because there is no water, and die of thirst.
3 I clothe the heavens with blackness.
I make sackcloth their covering.”
Isaiah 50:1-3
Christian Standard Bible
50 This is what the Lord says:
Where is your mother’s divorce certificate
that I used to send her away?(A)
Or to which of my creditors did I sell you?(B)
Look, you were sold for your iniquities,(C)
and your mother was sent away
because of your transgressions.
2 Why was no one there when I came?
Why was there no one to answer when I called?
Is my arm too weak to redeem?(D)
Or do I have no power to rescue?
Look, I dry up the sea by my rebuke;(E)
I turn the rivers into a wilderness;
their fish rot because of lack of water
and die of thirst.
3 I dress the heavens in black
and make sackcloth their covering.(F)
