13 aIndeed before the day was, I am He;
And there is no one who can deliver out of My hand;
I work, and who will breverse it?”
And there is no one who can deliver out of My hand;
I work, and who will breverse it?”
14 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer,
The Holy One of Israel:
“For your sake I will send to Babylon,
And bring them all down as fugitives—
The Chaldeans, who rejoice in their ships.

The Chaldeans, who rejoice in their ships.
17 Who abrings forth the chariot and horse,
The army and the power
(They shall lie down together, they shall not rise;
They are extinguished, they are quenched like a wick):

They are extinguished, they are quenched like a wick):
19 Behold, I will do a anew thing,
Now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
bI will even make a road in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert.
Now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
bI will even make a road in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert.
20 The beast of the field will honor Me,
The jackals and the ostriches,
Because aI give waters in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert,
To give drink to My people, My chosen.

Pleading with Unfaithful Israel
23 aYou have not brought Me the sheep for your burnt offerings,
Nor have you honored Me with your sacrifices.
I have not caused you to serve with grain offerings,
Nor wearied you with incense.
Nor have you honored Me with your sacrifices.
I have not caused you to serve with grain offerings,
Nor wearied you with incense.
24 You have bought Me no sweet cane with money,
Nor have you satisfied Me with the fat of your sacrifices;
But you have burdened Me with your sins,
You have awearied Me with your iniquities.
Nor have you satisfied Me with the fat of your sacrifices;
But you have burdened Me with your sins,
You have awearied Me with your iniquities.
25 “I, even I, am He who ablots out your transgressions bfor My own sake;
cAnd I will not remember your sins.
cAnd I will not remember your sins.
