Isaiah 42:7-17 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

7. that thou might open the eyes of the blind, that thou might bring out the prisoners from the prison and those that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

8. I am the Lord. This is my name, and my glory I will not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

9. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and I declare new things: before they spring forth I tell you of them.

10. Sing unto the Lord a new song and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea and all that is therein, the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.

11. Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar inhabits; let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout {Heb. command} from the top of the mountains.

12. Let them give glory unto the Lord and declare his praise in the islands.

13. The Lord shall go forth as a giant; he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war; he shall cry out a battle cry; he shall prevail against his enemies.

14. I have long time held my peace; I have been still and refrained myself; now will I cry out like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.

15. I will make waste mountains and hills and dry up all their grass, and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.

16. And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will cause them to walk in paths that they have not known; I will make darkness light before them and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them and not forsake them.

17. They shall be turned back; they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.
