23:043:011 I, even I, am the lord; and beside me there is no saviour.

23:043:012 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.

23:043:013 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?

23:043:014 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.

23:043:015 I am the lord, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your
           King.

23:043:016 Thus saith the lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path
           in the mighty waters;

23:043:017 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.

23:043:018 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things
           of old.

23:043:019 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.

23:043:020 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.

23:043:021 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my
           praise.

23:043:022 But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been
           weary of me, O Israel.

23:043:023 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.

23:043:024 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.

23:043:025 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine
           own sake, and will not remember thy sins.

23:043:026 Put me in remembrance:  let us plead together:  declare thou,
           that thou mayest be justified.

23:043:027 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have
           transgressed against me.

23:043:028 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and
           have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
