5. Thus says God the Lord,who created the heavens and stretched them out,who spread forth the earth and that which comes out of it,who gives breath to the people on it,and spirit to those who walk in it:
6. I the Lord have called You in righteousness,and will hold Your hand,and will keep You and appoint Youfor a covenant of the people,for a light of the nations,
7. to open the blind eyes,to bring out the prisoners from the prison,and those who sit in darkness out of the prison house.
8. I am the Lord, that is My name;and My glory I will not give to another,nor My praise to graven images.
9. See, the former things have come to pass,and new things I declare;before they spring forthI tell you of them.
