^2 (A)Who has stirred one from the east
Whom He ^(B)calls in righteousness to His ^[a]feet?
He ^(C)turns nations over to him
And subdues kings.
He makes them like ^(D)dust with his sword,
Like the wind-driven ^(E)chaff with his bow.

45 This is what the Lord says to ^(A)Cyrus His anointed,
Whom I have taken by the right ^(B)hand,
To ^(C)subdue nations before him
And ^[a]to ^(D)undo the weapons belt on the waist of kings;
To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut:
² “I will go before you and ^(E)make the ^[b]rough places smooth;
I will ^(F)shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron ^(G)bars.
