Isaiah 41
41
Israel Assured of God’s Help
1“Keep #Hab. 2:20; Zech. 2:13silence before Me, O coastlands,
And let the people renew their strength!
Let them come near, then let them speak;
Let us #Is. 1:18come near together for judgment.
2“Who raised up one #Is. 46:11from the east?
Who in righteousness called him to His feet?
Who #Gen. 14:14; Is. 45:1, 13gave the nations before him,
And made him rule over kings?
Who gave them as the dust to his sword,
As driven stubble to his bow?
3Who pursued them, and passed safely
By the way that he had not gone with his feet?
4#Is. 41:26Who has performed and done it,
Calling the generations from the beginning?
‘I, the Lord, am #Rev. 1:8, 17; 22:13the first;
And with the last I am #Is. 43:10; 44:6He.’ ”
5The coastlands saw it and feared,
The ends of the earth were afraid;
They drew near and came.
6#Is. 40:19Everyone helped his neighbor,
And said to his brother,
“Be of good courage!”
7#Is. 44:13So the craftsman encouraged the #Is. 40:19goldsmith;
He who smooths with the hammer inspired him who strikes the anvil,
Saying, “It is ready for the soldering”;
Then he fastened it with pegs,
#Is. 40:20That it might not totter.
8“But you, Israel, are My servant,
Jacob whom I have #Deut. 7:6; 10:15; Ps. 135:4; (Is. 43:1)chosen,
The descendants of Abraham My #2 Chr. 20:7; James 2:23friend.
9You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth,
And called from its farthest regions,
And said to you,
‘You are My servant,
I have chosen you and have not cast you away:
10#Is. 41:13, 14; 43:5Fear not, #(Deut. 31:6)for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
11“Behold, all those who were incensed against you
Shall be #Ex. 23:22; Is. 45:24; 60:12; Zech. 12:3ashamed and disgraced;
They shall be as nothing,
And those who strive with you shall perish.
12You shall seek them and not find them—
Those who contended with you.
Those who war against you
Shall be as nothing,
As a nonexistent thing.
13For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand,
Saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’
14“Fear not, you #Job 25:6; Ps. 22:6worm Jacob,
You men of Israel!
I will help you,” says the Lord
And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
15“Behold, #Mic. 4:13; Hab. 3:12; (2 Cor. 10:4)I will make you into a new threshing sledge with sharp teeth;
You shall thresh the mountains and beat them small,
And make the hills like chaff.
16You shall #Jer. 51:2winnow them, the wind shall carry them away,
And the whirlwind shall scatter them;
You shall rejoice in the Lord,
And#Is. 45:25 glory in the Holy One of Israel.
17“The poor and needy seek water, but there is none,
Their tongues fail for thirst.
I, the Lord, will hear them;
I, the God of Israel, will not #Ps. 94:14; Rom. 11:2forsake them.
18I will open #Is. 35:6, 7; 43:19; 44:3rivers in desolate heights,
And fountains in the midst of the valleys;
I will make the #Ps. 107:35wilderness a pool of water,
And the dry land springs of water.
19I will plant in the wilderness the cedar and the acacia tree,
The myrtle and the oil tree;
I will set in the #Is. 35:1desert the cypress tree and the pine
And the box tree together,
20#Job 12:9; Is. 66:14That they may see and know,
And consider and understand together,
That the hand of the Lord has done this,
And the Holy One of Israel has created it.
The Futility of Idols
21“Present your case,” says the Lord.
“Bring forth your strong reasons,” says the #Is. 43:15King of Jacob.
22“Let#Is. 45:21 them bring forth and show us what will happen;
Let them show the #Is. 43:9former things, what they were,
That we may consider them,
And know the latter end of them;
Or declare to us things to come.
23#Is. 42:9; 44:7, 8; 45:3; (John 13:19)Show the things that are to come hereafter,
That we may know that you are gods;
Yes, #Jer. 10:5do good or do evil,
That we may be dismayed and see it together.
24Indeed #Ps. 115:8; Is. 44:9; (Rom. 3:10–20; 1 Cor. 8:4)you are nothing,
And your work is nothing;
He who chooses you is an abomination.
25“I have raised up one from the north,
And he shall come;
From the rising of the sun #Ezra 1:2he shall call on My name;
#Is. 41:2; Jer. 50:3And he shall come against princes as though mortar,
As the potter treads clay.
26#Is. 43:9Who has declared from the beginning, that we may know?
And former times, that we may say, ‘He is righteous’?
Surely there is no one who shows,
Surely there is no one who declares,
Surely there is no one who hears your words.
27#Is. 41:4The first time #Is. 40:9; Nah. 1:15I said to Zion,
‘Look, there they are!’
And I will give to Jerusalem one who brings good tidings.
28#Is. 63:5For I looked, and there was no man;
I looked among them, but there was no counselor,
Who, when I asked of them, could answer a word.
29#Is. 41:24Indeed they are all worthless;
Their works are nothing;
Their molded images are wind and confusion.
