Isaiah 50:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ I will clothe the heavens with darkness, and will make sackcloth their covering.

⁴ The Lord hath given me a learned tongue, that I should know how to uphold by word him that is weary: he wakeneth in the morning, in the morning he wakeneth my ear, that I may hear him as a master.

⁵ The Lord God hath opened my ear, and I do not resist: I have not gone back.
