Isaiah 42:12-21
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 42
12
Let them give glory to the
Lord
And declare His praise in the coastlands.
13
The
Lord
will go out like a warrior,
He will stir
His
zeal like a man of war.
He will shout, indeed, He will raise a war cry.
He will prevail against His enemies.
14
'I have kept silent for a long time,
I have kept still and restrained Myself.
Now
like a woman in labor I will groan,
I will both gasp and pant.
15
I will lay waste the mountains and hills
And wither all their vegetation;
I will turn the rivers into coastlands
And dry up the ponds.
16
I will lead those who are blind by a way they have not known,
In paths they have not known I will guide them.
I will turn darkness into light before them
And uneven land into plains.
These are the things I will do,
And I will not leave them undone.'
17
They will be turned back
and
be utterly put to shame,
Who trust in idols,
Who say to cast metal images,
'You are our gods.'
18
Hear, you who are deaf!
And look, you who are blind, so that you may see.
19
Who is blind but My servant,
Or so deaf as My messenger whom I send?
Who is so blind as one who is at peace
with Me,
Or so blind as the servant of the
Lord
?
20
You have seen many things, but you do not retain
them;
Your
ears are open, but no one hears.
21
The
Lord
was pleased for His righteousness’ sake
To make the Law great and glorious.
King James Version
Chapter 42
12
Let them give glory unto the
Lord
, and declare his praise in the islands.
13
The
Lord
shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.
14
I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.
15
I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; 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 lead them 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.
18
Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
19
Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the
Lord
'S servant?
20
Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.
21
The
Lord
is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 42
12
Let them give glory to the
Lord
and declare his praise in the coasts and islands.
13
The
Lord
advances like a warrior;
he stirs up his zeal like a soldier.
He shouts, he roars aloud,
he prevails over his enemies.
14
"I have kept silent from ages past;
I have been quiet and restrained myself.
But now, I will groan like a woman in labor,
gasping breathlessly.
15
I will lay waste mountains and hills
and dry up all their vegetation.
I will turn rivers into islands
and dry up marshes.
16
I will lead the blind by a way they did not know;
I will guide them on paths they have not known.
I will turn darkness to light in front of them
and rough places into level ground.
This is what I will do for them,
and I will not abandon them.
17
They will be turned back and utterly ashamed—
those who trust in an idol
and say to a cast image,
‘You are our gods!’
18
"Listen, you deaf!
Look, you blind, so that you may see.
19
Who is blind but my servant,
or deaf like my messenger I am sending?
Who is blind like my dedicated one,
or blind like the servant of the
Lord
?
20
Though seeing many things, you pay no attention.
Though his ears are open, he does not listen."
21
Because of his righteousness, the
Lord
was pleased
to magnify his instruction and make it glorious.
New Living Translation
Chapter 42
12
Let the whole world glorify the
Lord
;
let it sing his praise.
13
The
Lord
will march forth like a mighty hero;
he will come out like a warrior, full of fury.
He will shout his battle cry
and crush all his enemies.
14
He will say, 'I have long been silent;
yes, I have restrained myself.
But now, like a woman in labor,
I will cry and groan and pant.
15
I will level the mountains and hills
and blight all their greenery.
I will turn the rivers into dry land
and will dry up all the pools.
16
I will lead blind Israel down a new path,
guiding them along an unfamiliar way.
I will brighten the darkness before them
and smooth out the road ahead of them.
Yes, I will indeed do these things;
I will not forsake them.
17
But those who trust in idols,
who say, ‘You are our gods,’
will be turned away in shame.
18
'Listen, you who are deaf!
Look and see, you blind!
19
Who is as blind as my own people, my servant?
Who is as deaf as my messenger?
Who is as blind as my chosen people,
the servant of the
Lord
?
20
You see and recognize what is right
but refuse to act on it.
You hear with your ears,
but you don’t really listen.'
21
Because he is righteous,
the
Lord
has exalted his glorious law.
English Standard Version
Chapter 42
12

Lord
,

The
Lord
goes out like a mighty man,
like a man of war he stirs up his zeal;
he cries out, he shouts aloud,
he shows himself mighty against his foes.
14
For a long time I have held my peace;
I have kept still and restrained myself;
now I will cry out like a woman in labor;
I will gasp and pant.
15
I will lay waste mountains and hills,
and dry up all their vegetation;
I will turn the rivers into islands,
and dry up the pools.
16
And I will lead the blind
in a way that they do not know,
in paths that they have not known
I will guide them.
I will turn the darkness before them into light,
the rough places into level ground.
These are the things I do,
and I do not forsake them.
17
They are turned back and utterly put to shame,
who trust in carved idols,
who say to metal images,
"You are our gods."
18
Hear, you deaf,
and look, you blind, that you may see!
19
Who is blind but my servant,
or deaf as my messenger whom I send?
Who is blind as my dedicated one,
or blind as the servant of the
Lord
?
20
He sees many things, but does not observe them;
his ears are open, but he does not hear.
21
The
Lord
was pleased, for his righteousness ' sake,
to magnify his law and make it glorious.
New International Version

like a warrior he will stir up his zeal;
with a shout he will raise the battle cry
and will triumph over his enemies.
14
"For a long time I have kept silent,
I have been quiet and held myself back.
But now, like a woman in childbirth,
I cry out, I gasp and pant.
15
I will lay waste the mountains and hills
and dry up all their vegetation;
I will turn rivers into islands
and dry up the pools.
16
I will lead the blind by ways they have not known,
along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;
I will turn the darkness into light before them
and make the rough places smooth.
These are the things I will do;
I will not forsake them.
17
But those who trust in idols,
who say to images, ‘You are our gods,’
will be turned back in utter shame.
18

look, you blind, and see!
19
Who is blind but my servant,
and deaf like the messenger I send?
Who is blind like the one in covenant with me,
blind like the servant of the
Lord
?
20
You have seen many things, but you pay no attention;
your ears are open, but you do not listen."
21
It pleased the
Lord
for the sake of his righteousness
to make his law great and glorious.
