Text

1	Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and who came from the waters of Judah, who swear by the name of the LORD and confess the God of Israel, but not in truth or right.
2	For they call themselves after the holy city, and stay themselves on the God of Israel; the LORD of hosts is his name.
3	“The former things I declared of old; they went out from my mouth and I announced them; then suddenly I did them and they came to pass.
4	Because I know that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew and your forehead brass,
5	I declared them to you from of old, before they came to pass I announced them to you, lest you should say, 'My idol did them, my carved image and my metal image commanded them.'
6	“You have heard; now see all this; and will you not declare it? From this time forth I announce to you new things, hidden things that you have not known.
7	They are created now, not long ago; before today you have never heard of them, lest you should say, 'Behold, I knew them.'
8	You have never heard, you have never known, from of old your ear has not been opened. For I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and that from before birth you were called a rebel.
9	“For my name's sake I defer my anger, for the sake of my praise I restrain it for you, that I may not cut you off.
10	Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tried you in the furnace of affliction.
11	For my own sake, for my own sake, I do it, for how should my name be profaned? My glory I will not give to another.
12	“Listen to me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I called! I am he; I am the first, and I am the last.
13	My hand laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens; when I call to them, they stand forth together.
14	“Assemble, all of you, and listen! who among them has declared these things? The LORD loves him; he shall perform his purpose on Babylon, and his arm shall be against the Chaldeans.
15	I, even I, have spoken and called him; I have brought him, and he will prosper in his way.
16	Draw near to me, hear this: from the beginning I have not spoken in secret, from the time it came to be I have been there.“ And now the Lord GOD has sent me, and his Spirit.
17	Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go.
18	Oh that you had paid attention to my commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea;
19	your offspring would have been like the sand, and your descendants like its grains; their name would never be cut off or destroyed from before me.“
20	Go out from Babylon, flee from Chaldea, declare this with a shout of joy, proclaim it, send it out to the end of the earth; say, “The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob!”
21	They did not thirst when he led them through the deserts; he made water flow for them from the rock; he split the rock and the water gushed out.
22	“There is no peace,” says the LORD, “for the wicked.”

NIV

1	“Listen to this, O house of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel and come from the line of Judah, you who take oaths in the name of the LORD and invoke the God of Israel- but not in truth or righteousness-
2	you who call yourselves citizens of the holy city and rely on the God of Israel- the LORD Almighty is his name:
3	I foretold the former things long ago, my mouth announced them and I made them known; then suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.
4	For I knew how stubborn you were; the sinews of your neck were iron, your forehead was bronze.
5	Therefore I told you these things long ago; before they happened I announced them to you so that you could not say, 'My idols did them; my wooden image and metal god ordained them.'
6	You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? “From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you.
7	They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot say, 'Yes, I knew of them.'
8	You have neither heard nor understood; from of old your ear has not been open. Well do I know how treacherous you are; you were called a rebel from birth.
9	For my own name's sake I delay my wrath; for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you, so as not to cut you off.
10	See, I have refined you, though not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
11	For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. How can I let myself be defamed? I will not yield my glory to another.
12	“Listen to me, O Jacob, Israel, whom I have called: I am he; I am the first and I am the last.
13	My own hand laid the foundations of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they all stand up together.
14	“Come together, all of you, and listen: Which of the idols has foretold these things? The LORD's chosen ally will carry out his purpose against Babylon; his arm will be against the Babylonians.
15	I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him. I will bring him, and he will succeed in his mission.
16	“Come near me and listen to this: “From the first announcement I have not spoken in secret; at the time it happens, I am there.” And now the Sovereign LORD has sent me, with his Spirit.
17	This is what the LORD says- your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.
18	If only you had paid attention to my commands, your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the sea.
19	Your descendants would have been like the sand, your children like its numberless grains; their name would never be cut off nor destroyed from before me.“
20	Leave Babylon, flee from the Babylonians! Announce this with shouts of joy and proclaim it. Send it out to the ends of the earth; say, “The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob.”
21	They did not thirst when he led them through the deserts; he made water flow for them from the rock; he split the rock and water gushed out.
22	“There is no peace,” says the LORD, “for the wicked.”

NLT

1	“Listen to me, O family of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel and born into the family of Judah. Listen, you who take oaths in the name of the LORD and call on the God of Israel. You don't keep your promises,
2	even though you call yourself the holy city and talk about depending on the God of Israel, whose name is the LORD of Heaven's Armies.
3	Long ago I told you what was going to happen. Then suddenly I took action, and all my predictions came true.
4	For I know how stubborn and obstinate you are. Your necks are as unbending as iron. Your heads are as hard as bronze.
5	That is why I told you what would happen; I told you beforehand what I was going to do. Then you could never say, 'My idols did it. My wooden image and metal god commanded it to happen!'
6	You have heard my predictions and seen them fulfilled, but you refuse to admit it. Now I will tell you new things, secrets you have not yet heard.
7	They are brand new, not things from the past. So you cannot say, 'We knew that all the time!'
8	“Yes, I will tell you of things that are entirely new, things you never heard of before. For I know so well what traitors you are. You have been rebels from birth.
9	Yet for my own sake and for the honor of my name, I will hold back my anger and not wipe you out.
10	I have refined you, but not as silver is refined. Rather, I have refined you in the furnace of suffering.
11	I will rescue you for my sake– yes, for my own sake! I will not let my reputation be tarnished, and I will not share my glory with idols!
12	“Listen to me, O family of Jacob, Israel my chosen one! I alone am God, the First and the Last.
13	It was my hand that laid the foundations of the earth, my right hand that spread out the heavens above. When I call out the stars, they all appear in order.“
14	Have any of your idols ever told you this? Come, all of you, and listen: The LORD has chosen Cyrus as his ally. He will use him to put an end to the empire of Babylon and to destroy the Babylonian armies.
15	“I have said it: I am calling Cyrus! I will send him on this errand and will help him succeed.
16	Come closer, and listen to this. From the beginning I have told you plainly what would happen.“ And now the Sovereign LORD and his Spirit have sent me with this message.
17	This is what the LORD says– your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is good for you and leads you along the paths you should follow.
18	Oh, that you had listened to my commands! Then you would have had peace flowing like a gentle river and righteousness rolling over you like waves in the sea.
19	Your descendants would have been like the sands along the seashore– too many to count! There would have been no need for your destruction, or for cutting off your family name.“
20	Yet even now, be free from your captivity! Leave Babylon and the Babylonians. Sing out this message! Shout it to the ends of the earth! The LORD has redeemed his servants, the people of Israel.
21	They were not thirsty when he led them through the desert. He divided the rock, and water gushed out for them to drink.
22	“But there is no peace for the wicked,” says the LORD.

KJV

1	Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2	For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
3	I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.
4	Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
5	I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
6	Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
7	They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
8	Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
9	For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
10	Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
11	For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
12	Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
13	Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
14	All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.
15	I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
16	Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
17	Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
18	O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19	Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
20	Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
21	And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
22	There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.
