5 Fear not; for I am with thee: I Will bring thy seed from the East, and gather thee from the West:

6 I will say to the North, Give up; and to the South, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the end of the earth:

4. ‘therefore,’ Heb. ‘and,’ marking principal clause: ‘thy ’ lit. ‘soul.’6. ‘Keep not back’: or, ‘restrain not,’

7 Everyone that is called by my name, and that I have created for my glory; that I have formed, yea, have made.

8 Bring forth a blind people, and they have eyes; and deaf ones, and they have ears.

9 All the nations are gathered together, and the peoples are assembled: who among them will tell this, and cause us to hear former things? let them produce their witnesses, and appear righteous, and let them hear, and say, (It is) truth

10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant, whom I have chosen; that ye may know, and believe me, and discern that I am he; before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

11 I, I am the Lord, and beside me is no Saviour.

12 Myself have told, and have saved, and have caused it to be heard, and there was no stranger among you; and ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.
