8. Bring out the blind people who have eyes,and the deaf who have ears.
9. Let all the nations be gathered together,and let the peoples be assembled.Who amongst them can declare this,and show us former things?Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified;or let them hear, and say, “That is true.”
10. “You are my witnesses,” says the Lord,“With my servant whom I have chosen;that you may know and believe me,and understand that I am he.Before me there was no God formed,neither will there be after me.
11. I myself am the Lord;and besides me there is no saviour.
12. I have declared, I have saved, and I have shown;and there was no strange god amongst you.Therefore you are my witnesses”,says the Lord, “and I am God.
13. Yes, since the day was, I am he;and there is no one who can deliver out of my hand.I will work, and who can hinder it?”
14. the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel says: “For your sake, I have sent to Babylon, and I will bring all of them down as fugitives, even the Kasdim, in the ships of their rejoicing.
15. I am the Lord, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.”
16. the Lord, who makes a way in the sea,and a path in the mighty waters says:
17. who brings out the chariot and horse,the army and the mighty man(they lie down together, they shall not rise;they are extinct, they are quenched like a wick):
18. “Don’t remember the former things,and don’t consider the things of old.
19. Behold, I will do a new thing.It springs out now.Don’t you know it?I will even make a way in the wilderness,and rivers in the desert.
