Isaiah 50:2-4
Holman Christian Standard Bible
2 Why was no one there when I came?
Why was there no one to answer when I called?
Is My hand too short to redeem?(A)
Or do I have no power to deliver?
Look, I dry up the sea by My rebuke;(B)
I turn the rivers into a wilderness;
their fish rot because of lack of water
and die of thirst.
3 I dress the heavens in black
and make sackcloth their clothing.(C)
The Obedient Servant
4 The Lord God has given Me
the tongue of those who are instructed(D)
to know how to sustain the weary with a word.
He awakens Me each morning;
He awakens My ear to listen like those being instructed.(E)
Isaiah 50:2-4
New International Version
2 When I came, why was there no one?
When I called, why was there no one to answer?(A)
Was my arm too short(B) to deliver you?
Do I lack the strength(C) to rescue you?
By a mere rebuke(D) I dry up the sea,(E)
I turn rivers into a desert;(F)
their fish rot for lack of water
and die of thirst.
3 I clothe the heavens with darkness(G)
and make sackcloth(H) its covering.”
