Isaiah 45
45
1Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) to his anointed, to Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace], whose right hand I have held, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the waist of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;
2I will go before youi, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:
3And I will give youi the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that youi may know that I, the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), which call [youi] by youri name, [am] the God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].
4For Ya’akov [Heal of God] my servant’s sake, and Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] my elect, I have even called youi by youri name: I have surnamed youi, though youi have not known me.
5I [am] the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and [there is] none else, [there is] no God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] beside me: I girded youi, though youi have not known me:
6That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none beside me. I [am] the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and [there is] none else.
7I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) do all these [things].
8Drop down, you2f heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) have created it.
9Woe unto him that strives with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd (piece of broken pottery) [strive] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashions it, What makes youi? or youi work, He has no hands?
10Woe unto him that says unto [his] father, What spawn youi? or to the woman, What have youi brought forth?
11Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), the Holy One of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command you2f me.
12I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
13I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Tz’va’ot [of the Heavenly Armies].
14Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), The labour of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place], and merchandise of Ethiopia [Kush] and of the S’va [drunkards], men of stature, shall come over unto youi, and they shall be yoursi: they shall come after youi; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto youi, they shall make supplication unto youi, [saying], Surely God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] [is] in youi; and [there is] none else, [there is] no God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
15Truly youi [are] a God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] that hide yourself, O God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], the Saviour.
16They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together [that are] makers of idols.
17 [But] Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] shall be saved in the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) with an everlasting salvation: you2f shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
18For thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) that created the heavens; God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] himself that formed the earth and made it; he has established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); and [there is] none else.
19I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Ya’akov [Heal of God], Seek you2f me in vain: I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
20Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, you2f [that are] escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god [that] cannot save.
21Tell you2f, and bring [them] near; yes, let them take counsel together: who has declared this from ancient time? [who] has told it from that time? [have] not I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate)? and [there is] no God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] else beside me; a just God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me.
22Look unto me, and be you2f saved, all the ends of the earth: for I [am] God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and [there is] none else.
23I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth [in] righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24Surely, shall [one] say, in the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) have I righteousness and strength: [even] to him shall [men] come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
25In the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) shall all the seed of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] be justified, and shall glory.

Isaiah 45
45
1Yahweh says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him and strip kings of their armor, to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:
2“I will go before you
and make the rough places smooth.
I will break the doors of bronze in pieces
and cut apart the bars of iron.
3I will give you the treasures of darkness
and hidden riches of secret places,
that you may know that it is I, Yahweh, who calls you by your name,
even the God of Israel.
4For Jacob my servant’s sake,
and Israel my chosen,
I have called you by your name.
I have given you a title,
though you have not known me.
5I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
Besides me, there is no God.
I will strengthen#45:5 or, equip you,
though you have not known me,
6that they may know from the rising of the sun,
and from the west,
that there is no one besides me.
I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
7I form the light
and create darkness.
I make peace
and create calamity.
I am Yahweh,
who does all these things.
8Rain, you heavens, from above,
and let the skies pour down righteousness.
Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation,
and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it.
I, Yahweh, have created it.
9Woe to him who strives with his Maker—
a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth!
Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’
or your work, ‘He has no hands’?
10Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’
or to a mother, ‘What have you given birth to?’”
11Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel
and his Maker says:
“You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons,
and you command me concerning the work of my hands!
12I have made the earth, and created man on it.
I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens.
I have commanded all their army.
13I have raised him up in righteousness,
and I will make all his ways straight.
He shall build my city,
and he shall let my exiles go free,
not for price nor reward,” says Yahweh of Armies.
14Yahweh says: “The labor of Egypt,
and the merchandise of Ethiopia,
and the Sabeans, men of stature, will come over to you,
and they will be yours.
They will go after you.
They shall come over in chains.
They will bow down to you.
They will make supplication to you:
‘Surely God is in you; and there is no one else.
There is no other god.
15Most certainly you are a God who has hidden yourself,
God of Israel, the Savior.’”
16They will be disappointed,
yes, confounded, all of them.
Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.
17Israel will be saved by Yahweh with an everlasting salvation.
You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.
18For Yahweh who created the heavens,
the God who formed the earth and made it,
who established it and didn’t create it a waste,
who formed it to be inhabited says:
“I am Yahweh.
There is no other.
19I have not spoken in secret,
in a place of the land of darkness.
I didn’t say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’
I, Yahweh, speak righteousness.
I declare things that are right.
20“Assemble yourselves and come.
Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations.
Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image,
and pray to a god that can’t save.
21Declare and present it.
Yes, let them take counsel together.
Who has shown this from ancient time?
Who has declared it of old?
Haven’t I, Yahweh?
There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior.
There is no one besides me.
22“Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth;
for I am God, and there is no other.
23I have sworn by myself.
The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not be revoked,
that to me every knee shall bow,
every tongue shall take an oath.
24They will say of me,
‘There is righteousness and strength only in Yahweh.’”
Even to him will men come.
All those who raged against him will be disappointed.
25All the offspring of Israel will be justified in Yahweh,
and will rejoice!
