Isaiah 42:6-9
New King James Version
6 “I,(A) the Lord, have called You in righteousness,
And will hold Your hand;
I will keep You (B)and give You as a covenant to the people,
As (C)a light to the Gentiles,
7 (D)To open blind eyes,
To (E)bring out prisoners from the prison,
Those who sit in (F)darkness from the prison house.
8 I am the Lord, that is My name;
And My (G)glory I will not give to another,
Nor My praise to carved images.
9 Behold, the former things have come to pass,
And new things I declare;
Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”
Isaiah 42:6-9

6 “I am the Lord, I have (A)called You in righteousness,
I will also (B)hold You by the hand and (C)watch over You,
And I will appoint You as a (D)covenant to the people,
As a (E)light to the nations,
7 To (F)open blind eyes,
To (G)bring out prisoners from the dungeon
And those who dwell in darkness from the prison.
8 (H)I am the Lord, that is (I)My name;
I will not give My (J)glory to another,
Nor My praise to idols.
9 Behold, the (K)former things have come to pass,
Now I declare (L)new things;
Before they sprout I proclaim them to you.”
