(Isa 50:1) Thus saith the Lord, Where {is} the bill of your mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors {is it} to whom I have sold you? behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
(Isa 50:2) Wherefore, when I came, {was there} no man? when I called, {was there} 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 {there is} no water, and dieth for thirst.
(Isa 50:3) I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
(Isa 50:4) The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to {him that is} weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
(Isa 50:5) The Lord God hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
(Isa 50:6) I 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.
(Isa 50:7) For 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.
(Isa 50:8) {He is} near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who {is} mine adversary? let him come near to me.
(Isa 50:9) Behold, the Lord God will help me; who {is} he {that} shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
(Isa 50:10) Who {is} among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh {in} darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God.
(Isa 50:11) Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass {yourselves} about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks {that} ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
