Isaiah 42:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 42:8

6 “I,^a the Lord, have called You in righteousness,
And will hold Your hand;
I will keep You ^band give You as a covenant to the people,
As ^ca light to the Gentiles,

7 ^aTo open blind eyes,
To ^bbring out prisoners from the prison,
Those who sit in ^cdarkness from the prison house.

8 I am the Lord, that is My name;
And My ^aglory I will not give to another,
Nor My praise to carved images.

9 Behold, the former things have come to pass,
And new things I declare;
Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

Praise to the Lord

10 ^aSing to the Lord a new song,
And His praise from the ends of the earth,
^bYou who go down to the sea, and¹ all that is in it,
You coastlands and you inhabitants of them!

11 Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voice,
The villages that Kedar inhabits.
Let the inhabitants of Sela sing,
Let them shout from the top of the mountains.
