11. I am, I am the Lord: and there is no saviour besides me.
12. I have declared, and have saved. I have made it heard, and there was no strange one among you. You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.
13. And from the beginning I am the same, and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall turn it away?
14. Thus saith the Lord your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: For your sake I sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their bars, and the Chaldeans glorying in their ships.
15. I am the Lord your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.
16. Thus saith the Lord, who made a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters.
17. Who brought forth the chariot and the horse, the army and the strong: they lay down to sleep together, and they shall not rise again: they are broken as flax, and are extinct.
18. Remember not former things, and look not on things of old.
19. Behold I do new things, and now they shall spring forth, verily you shall know them: I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20. The beast of the field shall glorify me, the dragons and the ostriches: because I have given waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, to my chosen.
21. This people have I formed for myself, they shall shew forth my praise.
22. But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob, neither hast thou laboured about me, O Israel.
23. Thou hast not offered me the ram of thy holocaust, nor hast thou glorified me with thy victims: I have not caused thee to serve with oblations, nor wearied thee with incense.
24. Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy victims. But thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.
25. I am, I am he that blot out thy iniquities for my own sake, and I will not remember thy sins.
