- 12I have declared, and I have saved, and I have shown; and there was no strange [supplied: god] among you: therefore you are my witnesses, says Yahweh, and I am God.
- 13Yes, since the day was I am he; and there is none who can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who can hinder it?

- 21the people which I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.
- 22Yet you have not called on me, Jacob; but you have been weary of me, Israel.
- 23You have not brought me of your sheep for burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with offerings, nor wearied you with frankincense.
- 24You have bought me no sweet cane with money, neither have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices; but you have burdened me with your sins, you have wearied me with your iniquities.
- 25I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.
- 26Put me in remembrance; let us plead together: set you forth [supplied: your cause], that you may be justified.
- 27Your first father sinned, and your teachers have transgressed against me.
- 28Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary; and I will make Jacob a curse, and Israel a reviling.
