5 God created the heavens and stretched them out;he fashioned the earth and all that lives there;he gave life and breath to all its people.And now the Lord God says to his servant,
6 “I, the Lord, have called you and given you powerto see that justice is done on earth.Through you I will make a covenant with all peoples;through you I will bring light to the nations.
7 You will open the eyes of the blindand set free those who sit in dark prisons.
8 “I alone am the Lord your God.No other god may share my glory;I will not let idols share my praise.
9 The things I predicted have now come true.Now I will tell you of new thingseven before they begin to happen.”
10 Sing a new song to the Lord;sing his praise, all the world!Praise him, you that sail the sea;praise him, all creatures of the sea!Sing, distant lands and all who live there!
11 Let the desert and its towns praise God;let the people of Kedar praise him!Let those who live in the city of Selashout for joy from the tops of the mountains!
