Isaiah 50
1Thus saith the LORD, Where <add>is</add> the bill of your mother’s divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors <add>is it</add> to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.2Wherefore, when I came, <add>was there</add> no man? when I called, <add>was there</add> none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because <add>there is</add> no water, and dieth for thirst.3I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.4The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to <add>him that is</add> weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
5The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.6I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.8<add>He is</add> near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who <add>is</add> mine adversary? let him come near to me.9Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who <add>is</add> he <add>that</add> shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
10Who <add>is</add> among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh <add>in</add> darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.11Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass <add>yourselves</add> about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks <add>that</add> ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
