| 14 | For a long time I have held my peace, I have kept still and restrained myself; now I will cry out like a woman in travail, I will gasp and pant. | God promises to help his people. Is.42.14-17 | הֶחֱשֵׁיתִי מֵעֹולָם אַחֲרִישׁ אֶתְאַפָּק כַּיֹּולֵדָה אֶפְעֶה אֶשֹּׁם וְאֶשְׁאַף יָחַד׃ |
| 15 | I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbage; I will turn the rivers into islands, and dry up the pools. | אַחֲרִיב הָרִים וּגְבָעֹות וְכָל־עֶשְׂבָּם אֹובִישׁ וְשַׂמְתִּי נְהָרֹות לָאִיִּים וַאֲגַמִּים אֹובִישׁ׃ | |
| 16 | And I will lead the blind in a way that they know not, in paths that they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I will do, and I will not forsake them. | וְהֹולַכְתִּי עִוְרִים בְּדֶרֶךְ לֹא יָדָעוּ בִּנְתִיבֹות לֹא־יָדְעוּ אַדְרִיכֵם אָשִׂים מַחְשָׁךְ לִפְנֵיהֶם לָאֹור וּמַעֲקַשִּׁים לְמִישֹׁור אֵלֶּה הַדְּבָרִים עֲשִׂיתִם וְלֹא עֲזַבְתִּים׃ | |
| 17 | They shall be turned back and utterly put to shame, who trust in graven images, who say to molten images, "You are our gods." | נָסֹגוּ אָחֹור יֵבֹשׁוּ בֹשֶׁת הַבֹּטְחִים בַּפָּסֶל הָאֹמְרִים לְמַסֵּכָה אַתֶּם אֱלֹהֵינוּ׃ ס | |
