I am the Lord,
    the Maker of all things,
    who stretches out the heavens,^(D)
    who spreads out the earth^(E) by myself,

⁴ Our Redeemer^(A)—the Lord Almighty^(B) is his name^(C)—
    is the Holy One^(D) of Israel.

¹⁷ This is what the Lord says—
    your Redeemer,^(A) the Holy One^(B) of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
    who teaches^(C) you what is best for you,
    who directs^(D) you in the way^(E) you should go.

⁷ This is what the Lord says—
    the Redeemer and Holy One of Israel^(A)—
to him who was despised^(B) and abhorred by the nation,
    to the servant of rulers:
“Kings^(C) will see you and stand up,
    princes will see and bow down,^(D)
because of the Lord, who is faithful,^(E)
    the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen^(F) you.”

²⁶ I will make your oppressors^(A) eat^(B) their own flesh;
    they will be drunk on their own blood,^(C) as with wine.
Then all mankind will know^(D)
    that I, the Lord, am your Savior,^(E)
    your Redeemer,^(F) the Mighty One of Jacob.^(G)”

⁵ For your Maker^(A) is your husband^(B)—
    the Lord Almighty is his name—
the Holy One^(C) of Israel is your Redeemer;^(D)
    he is called the God of all the earth.^(E)

⁸ In a surge of anger^(A)
    I hid^(B) my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness^(C)
    I will have compassion^(D) on you,”
    says the Lord your Redeemer.^(E)
