Thus says the
LORD,
"Where is the
certificate of
divorce By
which I have
sent your
mother away?
Or to
whom of My
creditors did I
sell you?
Behold, you were
sold for your
iniquities, And for your
transgressions your
mother was
sent away.

"Why was
there no man when I
came? When I
called, why was
there none to
answer? Is My
hand so short that it
cannot ransom?
Or have I
no power to
deliver?
Behold, I
dry up the
sea with My
rebuke, I
make the
rivers a
wilderness; Their
fish stink for
lack of
water And
die of
thirst.

The
Lord GOD has
given Me the
tongue of
disciples, That I may
know how to
sustain the
weary one with a
word. He
awakens Me
morning by
morning, He
awakens My
ear to
listen as a
disciple.

The
Lord GOD has
opened My
ear; And I was not
disobedient Nor did I
turn back.

I
gave My

strike Me, And My
cheeks to those who
pluck out the
beard; I did not
cover My
face from
humiliation and
spitting.

For the

Therefore *, I am not

Therefore *, I have
set My

know that I will not be
ashamed.

He who
vindicates Me is
near;
Who will

Who has a

Who is he who

Behold, they will
all wear out like a
garment; The
moth will
eat them.

Who is among you that
fears the
LORD, That
obeys the
voice of His
servant, That
walks in
darkness and
has no light? Let him
trust in the
name of the
LORD and
rely on his
God.

Behold,
all you who
kindle a
fire, Who
encircle yourselves with
firebrands,
Walk in the
light of your
fire And among the
brands you have
set ablaze.
This you will
have from My
hand: You will
lie down in
torment.
