And bMy cheeks to those who plucked out the beard;
I did not hide My face from shame and cspitting.
Therefore I will not be disgraced;
Therefore aI have set My face like a flint,
And I know that I will not be ashamed.
Who will contend with Me?
Let us stand together.
Who is1 My adversary?
Let him come near Me.
Who is he who will condemn Me?
aIndeed they will all grow old like a garment;
bThe moth will eat them up.
Who obeys the voice of His Servant?
Who awalks in darkness
And has no light?
bLet him trust in the name of the Lord
And rely upon his God.
Who encircle yourselves with sparks:
Walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks you have kindled—
aThis you shall have from My hand:
You shall lie down bin torment.

Isaiah 50:8
Who will contend with me - The Bodleian MS. and another add the word hu ; mi hu yarib , as in the like phrase in the next verse; and in the very same phrase Job 13:19, and so likewise in many other places, Job 17:3; Job 41:1. Sometimes on the like occasions it is mi zeh , and mi hu zeh , "Who is this one?" The word has probably been lost out of the present text; and the reading of the MSS. above mentioned seems to be genuine.
