1 Yet shamai (hearken / hear) now, Yaiqab (Jacob - Patriarch) my ibad (servant), and Yashar-Al (Israel), whom I have bachar (chosen).
2 This is what Yahawah () who ishah (make) you, and yatzar (formed) you from the batan (womb), who will izar (help) you amar (spoke): “Don't be yaraa (fear / be afraid), Yaiqab (Jacob) my ibad (servant); and you, Yasharawan (Jeshurun), whom I have bachar (chosen).
3 For I will yatzaq (pour) mayam (Waters) on him who is thirsty, and nazalayam (streams) on the dry yabashah (dry land). I will yatzaq (pour) my rawach (spirit / wind) on your zarai (seed), and my barakah (blessing) on your tzaatzaa (offspring):
4 And they will tzamach (spring) up bayan (between) the chatzayar (grass), as irabayam (willows) by the yabalay (watercourses).
5 One will amar (spoke), ‘I am Yahawah ();’ and another will be qaraa (called) by the sham (name) of Yaiqab (Jacob); and another will kathab (write) with his yad (hand) ‘to Yahawah (),’ and honor the sham (name) of Yashar-Al (Israel).”
6 This is what Yahawah (), the malak (king) of Yashar-Al (Israel), and his gaal (redeemer), Yahawah () of tzabaawath (armies), amar (spoke): “I am the raashawan (first), and I am the acharawan (last); and balaiday (besides) me there is no Alahayam ().
7 Who is like me? Who will qaraa (called), and will nagad (declare) it, and irak (set) it in order for me, since I established the iwalam (eternity) im (nation / people)? Let them nagad (declare) the things that are bawaa (bring), and that will happen.
8 Don't pachad (fear / dread), neither be rahah (afraid). Haven't I nagad (declared) it to you long ago, and shown it? You are my witnesses. Is there a Alawah () balaiday (besides) me? Indeed, there is not. I don't yadai (know) any other tzawar (rock).”
9 Everyone who yatzaray (makes) an engraved pasal (image) is thahaw (formless). The things that they delight in will not yail (profit). Their own witnesses don't raah (see / saw), nor yadai (know), that they may be disappointed.
10 Who has yatzar (fashioned) a Al, or molds an pasal (image) that is profitable for balathay (without)?
11 Behold, all his chabar (fellows) will be disappointed; and the workmen are mere adam (men). Let them all be qabatz (gathered) together. Let them imad (stand) up. They will pachad (fear / dread). They will be bawash (put) to shame yachad (together).
12 The blacksmith takes an axe, pail (works) in the pacham (coals), yatzar (fashions) it with maqabawath (hammers), and pail (works) it with his strong zarawai (arm). He is raib (hungry), and his kach (strength / mighty / power) ayan (NO ONE); he shathah (drinks) no mayam (Waters), and is yaip (faint).
13 The charash (carpenter) stretches out a qaw (line). He thaar (marks) it out with a pencil. He shapes it with maqatzaiwath (planes). He thaar (marks) it out with compasses, and shapes it like the thabanayath (figure) of a ayash (man / husband), with the thapaarah (beauty) of a adam (man), to reside in a bayath (house).
14 He karath (cut) down arazayam (cedars) for himself, and laqach (take / seize) the tharazah (cypress) and the alawan (oak), and amatz (strengthens) for himself one among the itzay (trees) of the yair (forest). He natai (plants) a fir tree, and the gasham (rain) nourishes it.
15 Then it will be for a adam (man) to bair (burn); and he laqach (take / seize) some of it, and chamam (warms) himself. Yes, he bair (burns) it, and apah (bakes) lacham (bread). Yes, he pail (makes) a Al, and shachah (worships) it; he ishah (make) it an engraved pasal (image), and sagad (falls) down to it.
16 He sharap (burns) chatzay (part) of it in the ash (fire). With chatzay (part) of it, he akal (eat) meat. He tzalay (roasts) a tzalah (roast), and is shabai (satisfied). Yes, he chamam (warms) himself, and amar (said), “haach (aha)! I am chamam (warm). I raah (see / saw) seen the awar (light).”
17 The shaarayath (rest) of it he ishah (make) into a Al, even his engraved pasal (image). He bows down to it and shachah (worships), and palal (prays) to it, and amar (said), “natzal (deliver) me; for you are my Al!”
18 They don't yadai (know), neither do they bayan (between): for he has shut their iyan (eye), that they can't raah (see / saw); and their lab (heart), that they can't shakal (understand).
19 No lab (heart) thinks, neither is there daith (knowledge) nor thabawan (understanding) to amar (said), “I have sharap (burned) chatzay (part) of it in the ash (fire). Yes, I have also apah (baked) lacham (bread) on its gachal (coals). I have tzalah (roasted) meat and akal (eat) it. Shall I ishah (make) the yathar (rest) of it into an thawaibah (abomination)? Shall I bow down to a itz (tree) trunk?”
20 He raih (feeds) on ashes. A hathal (deceived) lab (heart) has natah (turned) him aside; and he can't natzal (deliver) his napash (soul), nor amar (said), “Isn't there a shaqar (lie) in my right yamayan (right hand)?”
21 Zakar (remember) these things, Yaiqab (Jacob - Patriarch) and Yashar-Al (Israel); for you are my ibad (servant). I have yatzar (formed) you. You are my ibad (servant). Yashar-Al (Israel), you will not be nashah (forgotten) by me.
22 I have machah (blotted) out, as a ib (thick) cloud, your pashai (transgressions), and, as a inan (cloud), your chataah (sin). Shawab (turn) to me, for I have gaal (redeemed) you.
23 Ranan (sing), you shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens), for Yahawah () ishah (make) done it! Rawai (shout), you lower thachathayawath (parts) of the aratz (Earth/land)! Patzach (break) out into ranah (singing), you harayam (mountains), O yair (forest), all of your itz (trees), for Yahawah () has gaal (redeemed) Yaiqab (Jacob), and will paar (glorify) himself in Yashar-Al (Israel).
24 Thus amar (spoke) Yahawah (), your gaal (redeemer), and he who yatzar (formed) you from the batan (womb): “I am Yahawah (), who ishah (make) all things; who natah (alone) stretches out the shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens); who natah (spreads) out the aratz (Earth/land) by myself;
25 Who parar (frustrates) the athawath (signs) of the badayam (liars), and makes diviners halal (praise); who shawab (turn) chakam (wise) men backward, and makes their daith (knowledge) foolish;
26 Who qawam (rise up) the dabar (word / matter) of his ibad (servant), and shalam (performs) the itzah (counsel) of his malaak (angel / messenger of Yah); who amar (said) of Yarawashalam (Yarawashalam / Jerusalem), ‘She will be yashab (inhabit/dwell);’ and of the iray (cities) of Yahawadah (Yahawadah / Judah), ‘They will be banah (build),’ and ‘I will qawam (rise up) up its charabah (waste) places;’
27 Who amar (said) to the tzawalah (deep), ‘Be charab (dry),’ and ‘I will yabash (dry land) up your nahar (rivers);’
28 Who amar (said) of Kawarash (Cyrus), ‘He is my shepherd, and shall shalam (perform) all my chapatz (pleasure),’ even amar (said) of Yarawashalam (Yarawashalam / Jerusalem), ‘She will be banah (build);’ and of the hayakal (temple), ‘Your yasad (foundation) will be laid.’”
