Es 43 (King James)

   ¹ But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. ² When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. ³ For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. ⁴ Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. 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 ends of the earth; ⁷ Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
   ⁸ Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. ⁹ Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or 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 understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. ¹¹ I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. ¹² I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. ¹³ Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
   ¹⁴ Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships. ¹⁵ I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King. ¹⁶ Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters; ¹⁷ Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow. ¹⁸ Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. ¹⁹ Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. ²⁰ The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. ²¹ This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
   ²² But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel. ²³ Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense. ²⁴ Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities. ²⁵ I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. ²⁶ Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified. ²⁷ Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me. ²⁸ Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.

Es 43 (Vulgate)

   ¹ [Et nunc hæc dicit Dominus
creans te, Jacob,
et formans te, Israël :
Noli timere, quia redemi te,
et vocavi te nomine tuo : meus es tu.
   ² Cum transieris per aquas, tecum ero,
et flumina non operient te ;
cum ambulaveris in igne, non combureris, et flamma non ardebit in te.
   ³ Quia ego Dominus Deus tuus,
Sanctus Israël, salvator tuus,
dedi propitiationem tuam Ægyptum,
Æthiopiam, et Saba, pro te.
   ⁴ Ex quo honorabilis factus es in oculis meis,
et gloriosus, ego dilexi te,
et dabo homines pro te,
et populos pro anima tua.
   ⁵ Noli timere, quia ego tecum sum ;
ab oriente adducam semen tuum,
et ab occidente congregabo te.
   ⁶ Dicam aquiloni : Da ;
et austro : Noli prohibere :
affer filios meos de longinquo,
et filias meas ab extremis terræ.
   ⁷ Et omnem qui invocat nomen meum,
in gloriam meam creavi eum, formavi eum, et feci eum.
   ⁸ Educ foras populum cæcum, et oculos habentem ;
surdum, et aures ei sunt.
   ⁹ Omnes gentes congregatæ sunt simul,
et collectæ sunt tribus.
Quis in vobis annuntiet istud,
et quæ prima sunt audire nos faciet ?
Dent testes eorum, justificentur,
et audiant, et dicant : Vere.
   ¹⁰ Vos testes mei, dicit Dominus,
et servus meus quem elegi :
ut sciatis, et credatis mihi,
et intelligatis quia ego ipse sum ;
ante me non est formatus Deus,
et post me non erit.
   ¹¹ Ego sum, ego sum Dominus,
et non est absque me salvator.
   ¹² Ego annuntiavi, et salvavi ; auditum feci,
et non fuit in vobis alienus :
vos testes mei, dicit Dominus,
et ego Deus.
   ¹³ Et ab initio ego ipse,
et non est qui de manu mea eruat.
Operabor, et quis avertet illud ?]
   ¹⁴ [Hæc dicit Dominus, redemptor vester,
Sanctus Israël :
Propter vos misi in Babylonem,
et detraxi vectes universos,
et Chaldæos in navibus suis gloriantes.
   ¹⁵ Ego Dominus, Sanctus vester,
creans Israël, rex vester.
   ¹⁶ Hæc dicit Dominus,
qui dedit in mari viam,
et in aquis torrentibus semitam ;
   ¹⁷ qui eduxit quadrigam et equum,
agmen et robustum :
simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent ;
contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt.
   ¹⁸ Ne memineritis priorum,
et antiqua ne intueamini.
   ¹⁹ Ecce ego facio nova,
et nunc orientur, utique cognoscetis ea :
ponam in deserto viam,
et in invio flumina.
   ²⁰ Glorificabit me bestia agri,
dracones, et struthiones :
quia dedi in deserto aquas,
flumina in invio,
ut darem potum populo meo, electo meo.
   ²¹ Populum istum formavi mihi :
laudem meam narrabit.]
   ²² [Non me invocasti, Jacob,
nec laborasti in me, Israël.
   ²³ Non obtulisti mihi arietem holocausti tui,
et victimis tuis non glorificasti me ;
non te servire feci in oblatione,
nec laborem tibi præbui in thure.
   ²⁴ Non emisti mihi argento calamum,
et adipe victimarum tuarum non inebriasti me :
verumtamen servire me fecisti in peccatis tuis ;
præbuisti mihi laborem in iniquitatibus tuis.
   ²⁵ Ego sum, ego sum ipse qui deleo iniquitates tuas propter me,
et peccatorum tuorum non recordabor.
   ²⁶ Reduc me in memoriam, et judicemur simul :
narra si quid habes ut justificeris.
   ²⁷ Pater tuus primus peccavit,
et interpretes tui prævaricati sunt in me :
   ²⁸ et contaminavi principes sanctos ;
dedi ad internecionem Jacob,
et Israël in blasphemiam.]
