Jeová é o único Salvador
1 Mas, agora, assim diz Jeová, que Is 43.15te criou, ó Jacó, e que Is 43.7,21;44.2,21,24te formou, ó Israel: Is 43.5Não temas, porque te Is 44.22-23;48.20redimi; Is 43.7;45.3-4;Gn 32.28chamei-te pelo teu nome, Is 43.21tu és meu. 2 Quando Is 8.7-8;Sl 66.12passares pelas águas, Dt 31.6,8serei contigo; quando passares pelos rios, não te submergirão; quando Is 29.6;30.27-29;Dn 3.25,27andares pelo fogo, não serás queimado, nem a chama arderá em ti. 3 Pois eu sou Êx 30.2Jeová, teu Deus, o Santo de Israel, Is 43.11;19.20;45.15,21;49.26;60.16;63.8teu Salvador; como teu resgate dei o Egito; em teu lugar, a Is 20.3-5;Pv 11.8;21.18Etiópia e Sebá. 4 Visto que te tornas precioso aos meus olhos e Is 49.5digno de honra, e Is 63.9eu te amo, portanto darei homens por ti e povos pela tua vida. 5 Is 41.10,14;44.2;Jr 30.10;46.27-28Não temas, porque Is 43.2;8.10eu sou contigo; trarei do Oriente Is 41.8;49.12;61.9a tua semente Is 49.12e te congregarei do Ocidente. 6 Direi ao Sl 107.3Norte: Dá; e ao Sul: Não retenhas. Is 14.2;40.22;60.4;66.20Traze de longe 2Co 6.18meus filhos e das Is 45.22extremidades da terra, minhas filhas; 7 traze todo aquele que é Is 56.5;62.2;Tg 2.7chamado pelo meu nome, e que tenho Is 29.23;Sl 100.3;Ef 2.10criado para Is 44.23;46.13minha glória, e Is 43.1que formei e fiz.
8 Faze sair o Is 6.9;42.18-20;Ez 12.2povo cego e que tem olhos e os surdos que têm ouvidos. 9 Sejam Is 34.1;41.1reunidas todas as nações, e congregados os povos; quem, dentre eles, pode Is 41.22-23,26anunciar isso e mostrar-nos coisas já passadas? Produzam Is 44.9as suas testemunhas Is 43.26para que sejam justificados ou ouçam e digam: Verdade é. 10 Is 44.8Vós sois as minhas testemunhas, diz Jeová; Is 42.1o meu servo a quem escolhi, para que saibais, me acrediteis e entendais que Is 41.4eu sou; Is 45.5-6antes de mim, não se formou nenhum deus, nem haverá depois de mim. 11 Eu, sim, eu, sou Jeová; e Is 44.6,8fora de mim não há Is 43.3;45.21;Os 13.4salvador. 12 Eu é que tenho anunciado, que tenho trazido a salvação e que tenho mostrado, e não houve entre vós Dt 32.16;Sl 81.9deus estranho; portanto, Is 43.10;44.8vós sois as minhas testemunhas, e eu sou Deus. 13 Sim, Is 48.16;Sl 90.2de hoje em diante, Is 41.4eu sou, Sl 50.22não há quem possa livrar da minha mão; Is 14.27;Jó 9.12operarei, e quem o impedirá?
Libertação do jugo da Babilônia
14 Assim diz Jeová, vosso Is 41.14Redentor, o Santo de Israel: Por amor de vós, enviei contra Babilônia e, Jr 51.13nos navios em que exultam, Is 13.14-15farei embarcar todos eles como fugitivos, os Is 23.13caldeus. 15 Eu sou Jeová, o vosso Santo, Is 43.1o Criador de Israel, vosso Is 41.21;44.6Rei. 16 Assim diz Jeová, Is 11.15;44.27;50.2;51.10;63.11-12;Êx 14.21-22;Sl 77.19que prepara um caminho no mar e Js 3.15-16uma vereda nas águas impetuosas; 17 que faz sair Êx 15.19o carro e o cavalo, o exército e a força; eles juntos se deitam, nem se levantarão; estão Sl 76.5-6extintos, Is 1.31;Sl 118.12apagados como uma torcida: 18 Is 65.17;Jr 16.14;23.7Não vos lembreis das coisas passadas, nem considereis as antigas. 19 Eis que estou para fazer Is 42.9;48.6;2Co 5.17uma coisa nova; agora sairá à luz; porventura, não a conhecereis? Is 35.1,6;41.18-19;49.10;51.3;Êx 17.6;Nm 20.11;Dt 8.15;Sl 78.16Farei um caminho no deserto e rios, no ermo. 20 Os animais do campo me honrarão, Is 13.22;35.7os chacais e as avestruzes; porque Is 41.17-18;48.21porei águas no deserto e rios, no ermo, a fim de dar de beber ao meu povo, ao meu escolhido, 21 ao povo Is 43.1que formei para mim mesmo, Is 42.12;Sl 102.18;Lc 1.74-75;1Pe 2.9a fim de que manifestassem o meu louvor.
22 Todavia, não me Is 30.9-11tens invocado, ó Jacó; mas de mim Mq 6.3;Ml 1.13;3.14te hás cansado, ó Israel. 23 Am 5.25Não me tens trazido o gado miúdo dos teus holocaustos, Zc 7.5-6;Ml 1.6-8nem me tens honrado com os teus sacrifícios. Não te hei feito Jr 7.21-26servir com ofertas, nem te hei cansado com Êx 30.34;Lv 2.1;24.7incenso. 24 Não me tens comprado por dinheiro Êx 30.23;Jr 6.20cana aromática, nem me tens enchido da gordura dos teus sacrifícios; mas me tens feito servir com os teus pecados, Is 1.14;7.13;Sl 95.10;Ez 6.9;Ml 2.17me tens cansado com as tuas iniquidades.
A clemência de Jeová
25 Eu, eu mesmo, sou o que Is 44.22;55.7;Jr 50.20apago as tuas transgressões Is 37.35;48.9,11;Ez 36.22por amor de mim; Is 38.17;Jr 31.34não me lembrarei dos teus pecados. 26 Aviva-me a memória, Is 1.18;41.1;50.8e juntos entremos em juízo; apresenta a tua causa, Is 43.9para que sejas justificado. 27 Is 51.2;Ez 16.3Teu primeiro pai pecou, e os Is 9.15;28.7;29.10;Jr 5.31teus intérpretes transgrediram contra mim. 28 Portanto, Is 47.6;Lm 2.2,6profanarei os príncipes do santuário, e farei de Jacó um Is 24.6;34.5;Jr 24.9;Dn 9.11;Zc 8.13anátema, e de Israel, um Sl 79.4;Ez 5.15opróbrio.
1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.43.4 life: or, person 5 Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; 6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; 7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.43.10 no…: or, nothing formed of God 11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. 12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. 13 Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?43.13 let it: Heb. turn it back?
14 Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.43.14 nobles: Heb. bars 15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King. 16 Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters; 17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. 19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. 20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.43.20 owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl 21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
22 But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel. 23 Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.43.23 small…: Heb. lambs, or, kids 24 Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.43.24 filled…: Heb. made me drunk, or, abundantly moistened 25 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. 26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified. 27 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.43.27 teachers: Heb. interpreters 28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.43.28 princes…: or, holy princes
