Isaías 42
Nova Versão de Acesso Livre
1Eis aqui o Meu Servo, a Quem Eu sustento; o Meu Escolhido, em Quem tenho alegria. Eu pus o Meu Espírito sobre Ele; Ele trará justiça às nações.
2Não clamará, nem gritará; não fará Sua voz ser ouvida nas ruas.
3A cana esmagada, Ele não a quebrará e o pavio que fumega, Ele não o apagará; Ele estabelecerá a justiça com fidelidade.
4Não Se cansará, nem desanimará, até que tenha estabelecido a justiça na terra; e as terras costeiras esperarão por Sua Lei.
5Assim diz Deus Yahweh — Aquele que criou os céus e os estendeu, que fez a terra e tudo que ela produz, que dá fôlego às pessoas que nela vivem e vida aos que nela habitam:
6“Eu, Yahweh, Te chamei em justiça e segurarei a Tua mão. Eu Te guardarei e Te estabelecerei como aliança para o povo, como uma luz para os gentios,
7para abrires os olhos dos cegos, para libertares os cativos da prisão e, do cárcere, aqueles que estão nas trevas.
8Eu sou Yahweh, este é o Meu nome; Minha glória Eu não darei a nenhum outro, nem Meu louvor aos ídolos de escultura.
9Eis que as primeiras coisas já se passaram; agora, Eu anuncio coisas novas. Antes que aconteçam, Eu vos contarei sobre elas.
10Cantai a Yahweh uma nova canção e Seu louvor desde os confins da terra; vós, os que navegais pelo mar e tudo quanto nele há; vós, terras costeiras, e aqueles que lá vivem.
11Que o deserto e as cidades clamem, as aldeias onde Quedar habita gritem de alegria! Que os moradores de Selá cantem; gritem do alto dos montes.
12Que eles deem glória a Yahweh e anunciem Seu louvor nas ilhas.
13Yahweh sairá como um guerreiro; como um homem de guerra, Ele despertará Seu zelo. Gritará, sim, dará Seus gritos de guerra; Ele mostrará Seu poder aos Seus inimigos.
14Eu Me calei por um longo tempo, e tenho ainda Me contido; agora darei gritos como uma mulher que está em trabalho de parto; Eu gemerei e suspirarei ofegantemente.
15Arrasarei montanhas e colinas e farei secar toda a sua vegetação; transformarei rios em ilhas e secarei os pântanos.
16Guiarei os cegos por um caminho que eles não conhecem; Eu os conduzirei por veredas que eles não conhecem. Transformarei as trevas em luz diante deles e farei retos os caminhos tortuosos. Essas coisas Eu farei e não os abandonarei.
17Mas voltarão, e serão completamente envergonhados, aqueles que confiam em imagens de esculturas, aqueles que dizem às imagens de fundição: "Vós sois nossos deuses".
18Surdos, ouvi; olhai, vós, cegos, para que vejam.
19Quem é cego, senão o Meu servo? Ou surdo como o mensageiro que Eu enviei? Quem é tão cego quanto Meu parceiro de aliança, ou cego como o servo de Yahweh?
20Tu vês muitas coisas, mas não as compreendes; os ouvidos estão abertos, mas nada ouves.
21Agradou a Yahweh louvar Sua justiça e fazer Sua Lei gloriosa.
22Este é um povo roubado e saqueado; todos eles estão presos em covas, mantidos cativos em prisões; eles se tornaram um despojo sem ninguém para os salvar, e ninguém disse: "Traze-os de volta!".
23Quem dentre vós ouvirá isso? Quem ouvirá e atenderá no futuro?
24Quem deu Jacó por despojo e Israel aos saqueadores? Não foi Yahweh, contra quem nós temos pecado, em cujos caminhos eles se recusaram a andar e cuja Lei se recusaram a obedecer?
25Portanto, Ele derramou a indignação de Sua ira contra eles, com devastação de guerra, e ardeu em chamas ao redor deles, mas não perceberam isso. Queimou-os, mas eles não colocaram isso no 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.”
