RF ISA 42:1 But My servant to whom I am guide,
In My Chosen My soul has delight.
My Spirit I place upon him,
To the Nations he Justice proclaims!
RF ISA 42:2 He shouts not, and will not assail;
His voice is not heard in the street;
RF ISA 42:3 He will not break the reed that is bruised,
Nor put out the flickering lamp,
But will publish the Truth and the Right.
RF ISA 42:4 Not waver, and never will fail,
Until He fix right on the Earth,
For the Islesmen afar await Him.
RF ISA 42:5 ODE 10.
The Messiah Foretold.
Thus says the LIVING GOD, Who formed and spread the skies,
Who formed for Earth her fruits; gave men upon her, sense,
and those who walk her, breath.
RF ISA 42:6 And I, the LIFE, for Mercy send,
I make you strong and guide your hand;—
I send you to My Race a pledge,
A light to lead the Heathen souls,
RF ISA 42:7 To give the blind eyes sight again,
From bonds to set the prisoner free,—
From dungeons those who dwelt in gloom.
RF ISA 42:8 ODE 11.
The Eternal Power of God.
I am EVER-LIVING;—for that is My Name,
And My power to others I never will give;
Or My Glory to Idols.
RF ISA 42:9 Past events have arrived; now the future I tell,
Before its arrival to you I announce!
RF ISA 42:10 ODE 12.
A Song of Praise to God.
Sing to the LORD a new song!
Praise Him from the bounds of the Earth!
The Sea, and all that it contains,
The Isles and the dwellers in them.
RF ISA 42:11 You, Moorlands, rise up with your towns;
With the grazers inhabiting tents,
Cheer, you men of the crags,
From the Hill-tops hurrah in delight.
RF ISA 42:12 His glory assign to the LORD,
And His honour report to the Isles.
RF ISA 42:13 The LORD like a hero comes on,
Like a warrior He rouses in ire,
He shouts, yes, He roars, overpowers. His foes.
RF ISA 42:14 "Why need I for ever be silent?
I strain as if bearing a child,—
Together I snort, pant, and gasp!—
RF ISA 42:15 I will scorch up the Mountains and Hills,
And will dry all their grass,
And turn brooks to sea-sands,
And will dry up the pools.
RF ISA 42:16 But lead the blind by a road they knew not,
Direct them through pathways unknown.
Place light before them in the dark,
Turn crooked to straight for their road.
I will do this for them, not forsake."
RF ISA 42:17 ODE 13.
The Folly of Idolatry.
They fly back defeated,—
The trusters in Idols are shamed,—
Those who named their own Castings their Gods!
RF ISA 42:18 Hear, you deaf and you blind think, and see!
RF ISA 42:19 ODE 14.
The Messiah.
Who so sharp as My Servant,
And skilled as the Agent I send?
Who was keen as instructed,
Yes! sharp as he worked for the LORD.
RF ISA 42:20 You saw clearly,—but cared not,
Open-eared,—but you heard not.
RF ISA 42:21 The LORD loved for His goodness.
Exalted His honour and might;
RF ISA 42:22 Yet this people are plundered, and robbed,—
All their heroes are netted,—and go to the dungeons.
Are plundered with none to release, Are a booty, and none cries "Give up!"
RF ISA 42:23 Who among you will hearken to this?
Will attend, and will hear, and turn back?
RF ISA 42:24 Who gave Jacob to robbers?
To the plunderers, Israel?
Did not the LORD give them both?
They offended, and wished not His paths,
They went and obeyed not His Laws;
RF ISA 42:25 So on them He poured fury and rage,
And His warrior's great might,
And lit fire around, but they cared not;
They burnt,—but they laid not to heart.
