Isaiah 50 :: New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB95)

God Helps His Servant

Isa 50:1Thus says the LORD,
“Where is the certificate of divorce
By which I have sent your mother away?
Or to whom of My creditors did I sell you?
Behold, you were sold for your iniquities,
And for your transgressions your mother was sent away.

Isa 50:2

Isa 50:2“Why was there no man when I came?
When I called, why was there none to answer?
Is My hand so short that it cannot ransom?
Or have I no power to deliver?
Behold, I dry up the sea with My rebuke,
I make the rivers a wilderness;
Their fish stink for lack of water
And die of thirst.

Isa 50:3

Isa 50:3“I clothe the heavens with blackness
And make sackcloth their covering.”

Isa 50:4

Isa 50:4The Lord [fn]GOD has given Me the tongue of disciples,
That I may know how to sustain the weary one with a word.
He awakens Me morning by morning,
He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.

Isa 50:5

Isa 50:5The Lord GOD has opened My ear;
And I was not disobedient
Nor did I turn back.

Isa 50:6

Isa 50:6I gave My back to those who strike Me,
And My cheeks to those who pluck out the beard;
I did not cover My face from humiliation and spitting.

Isa 50:7

Isa 50:7For the Lord GOD helps Me,
Therefore, I am not disgraced;
Therefore, I have set My face like flint,
And I know that I will not be ashamed.

Isa 50:8

Isa 50:8He who vindicates Me is near;
Who will contend with Me?
Let us stand up to each other;
Who has a case against Me?
Let him draw near to Me.

Isa 50:9

Isa 50:9Behold, the Lord GOD helps Me;
Who is he who condemns Me?
Behold, they will all wear out like a garment;
The moth will eat them.

Isa 50:10

Isa 50:10Who is among you that fears the LORD,
That obeys the voice of His servant,
That walks in darkness and has no light?
Let him trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God.

Isa 50:11

Isa 50:11Behold, all you who kindle a fire,
Who [fn]encircle yourselves with firebrands,
Walk in the light of your fire
And among the brands you have set ablaze.
This you will have from My hand:
You will lie down in torment.
