Isaías 42

Bíblia Livre

1Eis aqui meu servo, a quem sustento; meu escolhido, em quem minha alma se agrada. Sobre ele eu pus o meu Espírito; ele trará justiça às nações.

2Ele não gritará, nem levantará seu clamor ; ele não fará ouvir sua voz nas ruas.

3A cana rachada ele não quebrará, nem apagará o pavio que fumega; com a verdade ele trará justiça.

4Ele não fraquejará, nem será esmagado, até que ponha a justiça na terra; e os litorais esperarão a sua doutrina.

5Assim diz Deus, o SENHOR, que criou os céus, e os esticou; estendeu a terra, e a tudo quanto ela produz; que dá respiração ao povo que nela habita ,e espírito aos que nela andam.

6Eu, o SENHOR, te chamei em justiça, e te tomarei pela mão. E eu te guardarei, e te darei como pacto para o povo e luz para as nações;

7Para abrir os olhos cegos, para tirar da prisão os presos, tirar do cárcere os que habitam em trevas.

8Eu, EU-SOU; este é o meu nome! Não darei a minha glória a outro, nem o meu louvor às imagens de escultura.

9Eis que as coisas anteriores já aconteceram; e as novas eu vos anuncio; e antes que surjam, delas eu vos informo.

10Cantai ao SENHOR um cântico novo, um louvor a ele desde o limite da terra; vós que navegais pelo mar, e tudo quanto nele há; vós terras do litoral e seus moradores.

11Levantem a voz o deserto e suas cidades, com as aldeias que Quedar habita; cantem os que habitam nas rochas, e gritem de alegria do cume dos montes.

12Deem glória ao SENHOR, e anunciem louvor a ele nas terras do litoral.

13O SENHOR sairá como guerreiro, como homem de guerra despertará o seu zelo; ele gritará, e fará grade ruído; e dominará a seus inimigos.

14Por muito tempo fiquei calado, quieto estive, e me retive; mas agora darei gritos como a que está de parto, suspirando e juntamente ofegando.

15Aos montes e morros tornarei em deserto, e toda sua erva farei secar; e tornarei aos rios em ilhas, e as lagoas secarei.

16E guiarei aos cegos por um caminho que nunca conheceram; eu os farei caminhar pelas veredas que não conheciam; tornarei as trevas em luz perante eles, e as coisas tortas farei direitas; estas coisas lhes farei, e nunca os desampararei.

17Mas serão conduzidos para trás e se envergonharão os que confiam em imagens de escultura, e dizem às imagens de fundição: Vós sois nossos deuses.

18Surdos, ouvi; e vós cegos, olhai para que possais ver.

19Quem é cego, senão o meu servo? Ou surdo, como o meu mensageiro, a quem envio? Quem é cego como o aliançado, e cego como o servo do SENHOR?

20Tu vês muitas coisas, porém não as guardas; mesmo abrindo os ouvidos, contudo nada ouve.

21O SENHOR se agradou, por causa de sua justiça, em engrandecer sua lei, e em fazê -la gloriosa.

22Mas este é um povo roubado e saqueado; todos estão enlaçados em covas, e escondidos em cárceres; são postos como despojos, e ninguém há que os resgate; estão como objetos de roubo, e ninguém diz “Restitui -os ”.

23Quem dentre vós dá ouvidos a isto? Quem presta atenção e ouve o que há de ser no futuro?

24Quem entregou a Jacó como roubo, e a Israel a ladrões? Por acaso não foi o SENHOR, aquele contra quem pecamos? Pois não queriam andar em seus caminhos, e não deram ouvidos à sua lei.

25Por isso ele derramou sobre eles o furor de sua ira, e a força da guerra; e os pôs em labaredas ao redor; porém ainda assim não entenderam; e ele os pôs para queimar, porém ainda assim não puseram nisso o coração.

Reina-Valera 1909

1HE aquí mi siervo, yo le sostendré; mi escogido, en quien mi alma toma contentamiento: he puesto sobre él mi espíritu, dará juicio á las gentes.

2No clamará, ni alzará, ni hará oir su voz en las plazas.

3No quebrará la caña cascada, ni apagará el pábilo que humeare: sacará el juicio á verdad.

4No se cansará, ni desmayará, hasta que ponga en la tierra juicio; y las islas esperarán su ley.

5Así dice el Dios Jehová, el Criador de los cielos, y el que los extiende; el que extiende la tierra y sus verduras; el que da respiración al pueblo que mora sobre ella, y espíritu á los que por ella andan:

6Yo Jehová te he llamado en justicia, y te tendré por la mano; te guardaré y te pondré por alianza del pueblo, por luz de las gentes;

7Para que abras ojos de ciegos, para que saques de la cárcel á los presos, y de casas de prisión á los que están de asiento en tinieblas.

8Yo Jehová: este es mi nombre; y á otro no daré mi gloria, ni mi alabanza á esculturas.

9Las cosas primeras he aquí vinieron, y yo anuncio nuevas cosas: antes que salgan á luz, yo os las haré notorias.

10Cantad á Jehová un nuevo cántico, su alabanza desde el fin de la tierra; los que descendéis á la mar, y lo que la hinche, las islas y los moradores de ellas.

11Alcen la voz el desierto y sus ciudades, las aldeas donde habita Cedar: canten los moradores de la Piedra, y desde la cumbre de los montes den voces de júbilo.

12Den gloria á Jehová, y prediquen sus loores en las islas.

13Jehová saldrá como gigante, y como hombre de guerra despertará celo: gritará, voceará, esforzaráse sobre sus enemigos.

14Desde el siglo he callado, tenido he silencio, y heme detenido: daré voces como la que está de parto; asolaré y devoraré juntamente.

15Tornaré en soledad montes y collados, haré secar toda su hierba; los ríos tornaré en islas, y secaré los estanques.

16Y guiaré los ciegos por camino que no sabían, haréles pisar por las sendas que no habían conocido; delante de ellos tornaré las tinieblas en luz, y los rodeos en llanura. Estas cosas les haré, y no los desampararé.

17Serán vueltos atrás, y en extremo confundidos, los que confían en las esculturas, y dicen á las estatuas de fundición: Vosotros sois nuestros dioses.

18Sordos, oid; y vosotros ciegos, mirad para ver.

19¿Quién ciego, sino mi siervo? ¿quién sordo, como mi mensajero que envié? ¿quién ciego como el perfecto, y ciego como el siervo de Jehová,

20Que ve muchas cosas y no advierte, que abre los oídos y no oye?

21Jehová se complació por amor de su justicia en magnificar la ley y engrandecerla.

22Mas este es pueblo saqueado y hollado, todos ellos enlazados en cavernas y escondidos en cárceles: son puestos á saco, y no hay quien libre; hollados, y no hay quien diga, Restituid.

23¿Quién de vosotros oirá esto? ¿quién atenderá y escuchará en orden al porvernir?

24¿Quién dió á Jacob en presa, y entregó á Israel á saqueadores? ¿No fué Jehová, contra quien pecamos? y no quisieron andar en sus caminos, ni oyeron su ley.

25Por tanto derramó sobre él el furor de su ira, y fuerza de guerra; púsole fuego de todas partes, empero no entendió; y encendióle, mas no ha parado mientes.

King James Version

1Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.

2He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

3A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.

4He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.

5Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

6I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

7To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

8I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

9Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.

10Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.

11Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.

12Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.

13The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.

14I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.

15I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.

16And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

17They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.

18Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.

19Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD’s servant?

20Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.

21The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness’ sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable.

22But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

23Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come?

24Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.

25Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.

World English Bible

1“Behold, my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights: I have put my Spirit on him. He will bring justice to the nations.

2He will not shout, nor raise his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.

3He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a dimly burning wick. He will faithfully bring justice.

4He will not fail nor be discouraged, until he has set justice in the earth, and the islands wait for his law.”

5God the LORD, he who created the heavens and stretched them out, he who spread out the earth and that which comes out of it, he who gives breath to its people and spirit to those who walk in it, says:

6“I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness. I will hold your hand. I will keep you, and make you a covenant for the people, as a light for the nations,

7to open the blind eyes, to bring the prisoners out of the dungeon, and those who sit in darkness out of the prison.

8“I am the LORD. That is my name. I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to engraved images.

9Behold, the former things have happened and I declare new things. I tell you about them before they come up.”

10Sing to the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the islands and their inhabitants.

11Let the wilderness and its cities raise their voices, with the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing. Let them shout from the top of the mountains!

12Let them give glory to the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.

13The LORD will go out like a mighty man. He will stir up zeal like a man of war. He will raise a war cry. Yes, he will shout aloud. He will triumph over his enemies.

14“I have been silent a long time. I have been quiet and restrained myself. Now I will cry out like a travailing woman. I will both gasp and pant.

15I will destroy mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs. I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.

16I will bring the blind by a way that they don’t know. I will lead them in paths that they don’t know. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. I will do these things, and I will not forsake them.

17“Those who trust in engraved images, who tell molten images, ‘You are our gods,’ will be turned back. They will be utterly disappointed.

18“Hear, you deaf, and look, you blind, that you may see.

19Who is blind, but my servant? Or who is as deaf as my messenger whom I send? Who is as blind as he who is at peace, and as blind as the LORD’s servant?

20You see many things, but don’t observe. His ears are open, but he doesn’t listen.

21It pleased the LORD, for his righteousness’ sake, to magnify the law and make it honorable.

22But this is a robbed and plundered people. All of them are snared in holes, and they are hidden in prisons. They have become captives, and no one delivers, and a plunder, and no one says, ‘Restore them!’

23Who is there among you who will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?

24Who gave Jacob as plunder, and Israel to the robbers? Didn’t the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? For they would not walk in his ways, and they disobeyed his law.

25Therefore he poured the fierceness of his anger on him, and the strength of battle. It set him on fire all around, but he didn’t know. It burned him, but he didn’t take it to heart.”
