²⁸ who says of Cyrus,^(A) ‘He is my shepherd
    and will accomplish all that I please;
he will say of Jerusalem,^(B) “Let it be rebuilt,”
    and of the temple,^(C) “Let its foundations^(D) be laid.”’

45 “This is what the Lord says to his anointed,^(E)
    to Cyrus,^(F) whose right hand I take hold^(G) of
to subdue nations^(H) before him
    and to strip kings of their armor,
to open doors before him
    so that gates will not be shut:
² I will go before you^(I)
    and will level^(J) the mountains^[a];
I will break down gates^(K) of bronze
    and cut through bars of iron.^(L)
3 I will give you hidden treasures,^(M)
    riches stored in secret places,^(N)
so that you may know^(O) that I am the Lord,
    the God of Israel, who summons you by name.^(P)
4 For the sake of Jacob my servant,^(Q)
    of Israel my chosen,
I summon you by name
    and bestow on you a title of honor,
    though you do not acknowledge^(R) me.
