17 Thus|strong="H3541" saith Jehovah|strong="H3068", thy|strong="H3068" Redeemer|strong="H1350", the|strong="H3541" Holy|strong="H6918" One|strong="H6918" of|strong="H3068" Israel|strong="H3478": I|strong="H3541" am|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068" thy|strong="H3068" God|strong="H3068", who|strong="H3068" teacheth|strong="H3925" thee|strong="H1870" to|strong="H3478" profit|strong="H3276", who|strong="H3068" leadeth|strong="H3212" thee|strong="H1870" by|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3541" way|strong="H1870" that|strong="H3068" thou|strong="H3212" shouldest go|strong="H3212".
18 Oh|strong="H3863" that|strong="H3863" thou|strong="H1961" hadst hearkened|strong="H7181" to|strong="H1961" my|strong="H1961" commandments|strong="H4687"! then|strong="H1961" had|strong="H1961" thy peace|strong="H7965" been|strong="H1961" as|strong="H1961" a|strong="H3068" river|strong="H5104", and|strong="H6666" thy righteousness|strong="H6666" as|strong="H1961" the|strong="H1961" waves|strong="H1530" of|strong="H5104" the|strong="H1961" sea|strong="H3220":
19 thy|strong="H6440" seed|strong="H2233" also|strong="H8034" had|strong="H1961" been|strong="H1961" as|strong="H1961" the|strong="H6440" sand|strong="H2344", and|strong="H6440" the|strong="H6440" offspring|strong="H2233" of|strong="H6440" thy|strong="H6440" bowels|strong="H4578" like|strong="H1961" the|strong="H6440" grains|strong="H4579" thereof|strong="H8034": his|strong="H6440" name|strong="H8034" would|strong="H8034" not|strong="H3808" be|strong="H1961" cut|strong="H3772" off|strong="H3772" nor|strong="H3808" destroyed|strong="H8045" from|strong="H6440" before|strong="H6440" me|strong="H6440".
20 Go|strong="H3318" ye|strong="H8085" forth|strong="H3318" from|strong="H3318" Babylon, flee|strong="H1272" ye|strong="H8085" from|strong="H3318" the|strong="H8085" Chaldeans|strong="H3778"; with|strong="H3068" a|strong="H3068" voice|strong="H6963" of|strong="H3068" singing|strong="H7440" declare|strong="H5046" ye|strong="H8085", tell|strong="H5046" this|strong="H2063", utter|strong="H5046" it|strong="H5704" even|strong="H5704" to|strong="H5704" the|strong="H8085" end|strong="H7097" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H8085" earth: say|strong="H6963" ye|strong="H8085", Jehovah|strong="H3068" hath|strong="H3068" redeemed|strong="H1350" his|strong="H3068" servant|strong="H5650" Jacob|strong="H3290".
21 And|strong="H3212" they|strong="H3808" thirsted|strong="H6770" not|strong="H3808" when he|strong="H3808" led|strong="H3212" them through|strong="H1234" the|strong="H3808" deserts|strong="H2723"; he|strong="H3808" caused the|strong="H3808" waters|strong="H4325" to|strong="H3212" flow|strong="H5140" out|strong="H5140" of|strong="H4325" the|strong="H3808" rock|strong="H6697" for|strong="H4325" them; he|strong="H3808" clave|strong="H1234" the|strong="H3808" rock|strong="H6697" also, and|strong="H3212" the|strong="H3808" waters|strong="H4325" gushed|strong="H4325" out|strong="H5140".
22 There|strong="H7965" is|strong="H3068" no|strong="H7563" peace|strong="H7965", saith Jehovah|strong="H3068", to|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3068" wicked|strong="H7563".
