RF ISA 45:1 ODE 18.
The Promise to Cyrus.
Thus says the LORD to His Messiah,
To Cyrus, whose right hand He wields,
To throw down Nations at his sight,
And make the kingdoms bare;
To open doors before his face,
Nor shall the gates be shut.
RF ISA 45:2 "I will precede, and level hills,
And I will smash the doors of bronze,
And break the iron-bolted bars!
RF ISA 45:3 And give to you the darkened hoards,
And treasures from the cells,
That you may know that I, the LORD,
Who called your name, am Israel's GOD.
RF ISA 45:4 For Jacob's sake, My friend,
And Israel's whom I chose
I call you by your name,
To an Office you know not!
RF ISA 45:5 I am the LIFE and none beside,
Except MYSELF there is no GOD;
Though you knew not, I fixed your belt!
RF ISA 45:6 To teach them from the rising-sun,
And from where evening fades away,
That I am LIFE, and none beside!—
RF ISA 45:7 Who formed the Light? Created Gloom?
Who Good has made? Created Bad?
Myself, the LORD, made all!
RF ISA 45:8 Skies from above drop dew,
You clouds rain Goodness down,
Earth open and yield Justice,
And Right grow up at once,
As I the LORD create!"
RF ISA 45:9 ODE 19.
The Folly of Resisting God.
Ah! He fights with his former!
The pot with the worker of clay!
Does the paste ask, the artist,
Why, what have you made?
And the product, deny you have skill?
RF ISA 45:10 Shame who asks of his father,
"What, have you begot?
Who demands from his mother
"What have you brought forth?"
RF ISA 45:11 Thus asks the LORD, Israel's HOLY,
Who formed the events,
"Do you carp at My sons?
Flout the work of My hands?
RF ISA 45:12 I made Earth and the Men upon her;
And My hand has stretched out the skies,
And I all their armies command.
RF ISA 45:13 I raised him to rule, and made all his paths smooth,
He will build Me a City, My captives set free,—
Not for pay, or for wage," says the ALMIGHTY LORD
RF ISA 45:14 ODE 20.
The Triumph of Israel.
Thus says the LORD:—
"Mitzraim's workers, Kush traders, and Seba's tall men,
Will come over, be yours, and will gather to you.
In troops they will come, and to you they will bow,
Declaring to you—' Yes, with you is a GOD,—
And no Gods exist, except HIM.'"
RF ISA 45:15 A True GOD from the Unseen are You,—
The GOD Who has Israel saved!
RF ISA 45:16 ODE 21.
The Degradation of Paganism.
All are disgraced and together are shamed,—
To shame Idol-makers all march,—
RF ISA 45:17 But Israel is saved by the LORD in a Victory for ever;
Nor for ever and ever be shamed or disgraced!
RF ISA 45:18 ODE 22.
The Eternity of God.
Thus says the LORD Who created the Suns,
The GOD Who formed EARTH, and provided its laws,
Formed it not for a waste, but for men to reside,—
"I am EVER-LIVING, and none but MYSELF.
RF ISA 45:19 I spoke not in secret, in dark spots of earth,
I told not Jacob's race, That you seek Me in vain;—
I, the LORD, speak the truth, and instruct in the right.
RF ISA 45:20 You who know nothing, but bear wooden Idols about,
And pray to a god with no power to help!
RF ISA 45:21 Proclaim, meet together in council;—
Who told this in advance? Who advised from of old?
Did not I, the LORD? and no other God?
The only true GOD, and except ME no other can save.
RF ISA 45:22 Turn to Me and be saved, all you boundaries of earth,
For I only am GOD.
RF ISA 45:23 I swear by Myself, and the unchanging truth left My mouth.
To Me all knees shall bend, and all tongues shall confess,
RF ISA 45:24 To the LORD belongs Righteousness, Power and Honour,
Come on and bow down, all you haters of HIM,—
RF ISA 45:25 In the LORD become righteous, and glory in Israel's Race!"
