“I, Yahweh, have called You
for a righteous purpose,
and I will keep You and appoint You
to be a covenant for the people
and a light to the nations,
in order to open blind eyes,
to bring out prisoners
from the dungeon,
and those sitting in darkness
from the prison house..
I am Yahweh, that is My name;
I will not give My glory to another
or my praise to idols.
The past events have indeed happened.
Now I declare new events;
I announce the to you
before they occure.”
Sing a new song to the LORD;
sing His praise from the ends
of the earth,
you who go down to the sea with all
that fills it,
you islands with your inhabitants.
Let the desert and its cities shout,
the settlements were Kendra dwells
cry aloud.
Let the inhabitants of Sela
sing for joy;
et them cry out from the mountaintops.
Let them give glory to the LORD
and declare His praise in the islands.
