12 “Listen to me, O Jacob,and Israel my called:I am he;I am the first,I am also the last.
13 Yes, my hand has laid the foundation of the earth,and my right hand has spread out the heavens.when I call to them, they stand up together.
14 “Assemble yourselves, all of you, and hear;who amongst them has declared these things?He whom the Lord loves will do what he likes to Babylon,and his arm will be against the Kasdim.
15 I, even I, have spoken;yes, I have called him.I have brought him,and he shall make his way prosperous.
16 “Come near to me and hear this:“From the beginning I have not spoken in secret;from the time that it happened, I was there.”Now the Lord GOD has sent me,with his Spirit.
17 the Lord,your Redeemer,the Holy One of Israel says:“I am the Lord your God,who teaches you to profit,who leads you by the way that you should go.
