Isaiah 43:1-12 CEV . . .Descendants of Jacob, I, the LORD (יהוה), created you and formed your nation. Israel, (Gal 3:19-29) don't be afraid. I have rescued you. I have called you by name; now you belong to me. (2) When you cross deep rivers, I will be with you, and you won't drown. When you walk through fire, you won't be burned or scorched by the flames. (3) I am the LORD (יהוה), your God, the Holy One of Israel, the God who saves you. I gave up Egypt, Ethiopia, and the region of Seba in exchange for you. (4) To me, you are very dear, and I love you. That's why I gave up nations and people to rescue you. (5) Don't be afraid! I am with you. From both east and west I will bring you together. (6) I will say to the north and to the south, "Free my sons and daughters! Let them return from distant lands. (7) They are my people-- I created each of them to bring honor to me." (8) Bring my people together. They have eyes and ears, but they can't see or hear. (9) Tell everyone of every nation to gather around. None of them can honestly say, "We told you so!" If someone heard them say this, then tell us about it now. (10) My people, you are my witnesses and my chosen servant. I want you to know me, to trust me, and understand that I alone am God. I have always been God; there can be no others. (11) I alone am the LORD (יהוה); only I can rescue you. (12) I promised to save you, and I kept my promise. You are my witnesses that no other god did this. I, the LORD (יהוה), have spoken.
Isaiah 43:1-12 GW . . .The LORD (יהוה) created Jacob and formed Israel. (Gal 3:19-29) Now, this is what the LORD (יהוה) says: Do not be afraid, because I have reclaimed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. (2) When you go through the sea, I am with you. When you go through rivers, they will not sweep you away. When you walk through fire, you will not be burned, and the flames will not harm you. (3) I am the LORD (יהוה) your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. Egypt is the ransom I exchanged for you. Sudan and Seba are the price I paid for you. (4) Since you are precious to me, you are honored and I love you. I will exchange others for you. Nations will be the price I pay for your life. (5) Do not be afraid, because I am with you. I will bring your descendants from the east and gather you from the west.
(6) I will say to the north, "Give them up," and to the south, "Do not keep them." Bring my sons from far away and my daughters from the ends of the earth. (7) Bring everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made. (8) Bring the people who are blind but still have eyes, the people who are deaf but still have ears. (9) All nations have gathered together, and people have assembled. Who among them could have revealed this? Who among them could have foretold this to us? They should bring their witnesses to prove that they were right. Let the people hear them. Then they will say that it is true. (10) "You are my witnesses," declares the LORD (יהוה). "I have chosen you as my servant so that you can know and believe in me and understand that I am the one who did this. No god was formed before me, and there will be none after me. (11) I alone am the LORD (יהוה), and there is no savior except me. (12) I have revealed it to you, I have saved you, and I have announced it to you. There was no foreign god among you. You are my witnesses that I am God," declares the LORD (יהוה).
Isaiah 43:1-12 MKJV . . .But now so says Jehovah (יהוה) who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel; (Gal 3:19-29) Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine. (2) When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; nor shall the flame kindle on you. (3) For I am Jehovah (יהוה) your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I gave Egypt for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for you. (4) Since you were precious in My sight, you have been honored, and I have loved you; therefore I will give men for you, and people for your life. (5) Fear not; for I am with you. I will bring your seed from the east, and gather you from the west. (6) I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Do not keep back; bring My sons from far and My daughters from the ends of the earth; (7) everyone who is called by My name; for I have created him for My glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. (8) Bring out the blind people who have eyes, and the deaf who have ears. (9) Let all the nations be brought together, and let the people be gathered; who among them can declare this and make us hear former things? Let them bring out their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, It is true. (10) You are My witnesses, says Jehovah (יהוה), and My servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe Me, and understand that I am He. Before Me no God was formed, nor shall there be after Me. (11) I, I am Jehovah (יהוה); and there is none to save besides Me. (12) I have declared, and have saved, and I have shown, when there was no strange god among you; therefore you are My witnesses, says Jehovah (יהוה), that I am God.
