ISAIAI-I.
Ah—ahl
I’m warm,—I feel theiirel
The refuse forms his God!
That Image he adores
And says, Deliver me Z
For you to me are God l
They know not, nor reflect ;
, They stop their eyes from sight;
They keep their hearts from sense
They lay it not to heart;
I burnt a part with tire,
y Baked on its coals my bread;
I roasted flesh and ate;
And made the rest a God!
_ A fool, I worship Wood !’
The fool devours dirt,
Deception veils his sense,
My right hand holds a lie!
jacob remember these,
And Israel, as My friend;
I formed you for My friendship.
Forget not, Israel, ME.
I drove your faults like clouds,
Like fog dispersed your sins,
Return to Me redeemed.
The Loma has worked!
Be shaken earth below;
Hills burst, and roar, you Woods,
With every tree in them.
The Lomb sets jacob free,
And Israel HE adorns!
I freed you;
And formed you from the womb;
For I, the LIFE, made all,
Alone, I stretched the skies,.
Myself spread out the land.
Alone producing Wonders,
I prophets move in dance,
Philosophers defeat,
_ y And show their knowledge vain.
But confirm, My .Servant’s word
Will complete My Agents’ news
That jerusalemshall last,
And ludah’s towns be built,
!lAnd er ruins rise again.
Who tells the Deep, f be dry; ,
And let your Rivers waste ;»’
Who calls His Shepherd, cyrus,
Who will effect My plans;
Who jerusalem will rebuild,
And found a Temple there!
