17. 15. (The voice of one that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of Jehovah, make straight in the desert a highway for our God: for the glory of Jehovah shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together (Isaiah 40:3-5).)

(O Zion that tellest good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem that tellest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength, say, Behold your God! Behold the Lord Jehovih cometh with strength, and His arm shall rule for Him: behold, His reward is with Him and the recompense of His work before Him. He shall feed His flock like a shepherd; He shall gather the lambs into His arm, and carry them in His bosom, He shall gently lead those that give suck (Isaiah 40:9-11).)

To whom will ye liken Me ? to whom am I equal? saith the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number; He calleth them all by name (Isaiah 40:25-26).

Who hath raised up one from the east whom He calleth in justice to his following? He gave the nations before Him, and made Him to rule over kings (Isaiah 41:2).

I, Jehovah, the First, and with the last; I am the same (Isaiah 41:4).

Behold My servant, on whom I recline, Mine elect in whom My soul is well pleased; I have put My spirit upon Him: He shall bring forth judgment to the nations. A bruised reed shall He not break, and the smoking flax shall He not quench: He shall bring forth judgment unto truth. He shall not quench nor break till He have set judgment in the earth (Isaiah 42:1-4).

I, Jehovah, have called Thee in justice, and I will give Thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations; to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoner from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. I am Jehovah: that is My name, and My glory I will not give to another. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I cause you to hear them (Isaiah 42:6-9).

Is there a God beside Me? I know no Rock (Isaiah 44:8). (Thus said Jehovah thy Redeemer, and He that formed thee from the womb; I am Jehovah that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by Myself (Isaiah 44:24).)
