45 This is what Yahweh says about Cyrus, his[a] anointed one:

I have held him by his right hand
    so he could conquer the nations ahead of him,
        strip kings of their power,
            and open doors ahead of him
                so that the gates would not be shut.
I will go ahead of you, Cyrus, and smooth out the rough places.
    I will break down the bronze doors and cut through the iron bars.
I will give you treasures from dark places and hidden stockpiles.
    Then you will know that I, Yahweh Elohim of Israel,
        have called you by name.
