⁸ אדין [כ= עללין] [ק= עלין] כל חכימי מלכא ולא־כהלין כתבא למקרא [כ= ופשרא] [ק= ופשרה] להודעה למלכא׃

⁴ עצביהם כסף וזהב מעשה ידי אדם׃

¹⁴ "Assemble yourselves, all you, and hear; who among them has declared these things? He whom Yahweh loves shall perform his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm [shall be on] the Chaldeans.

¹⁵ I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him; I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.

¹⁶ "Come near to me and hear this: "From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it was, there am I." Now the Lord Yahweh has sent me, with his Spirit.

¹⁷ Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am Yahweh your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.

¹⁸ Oh that you had listened to my commandments! then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea:

¹⁹ your seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of your body like its grains: his name would not be cut off nor destroyed from before me.

²⁰ Go forth from Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans; with a voice of singing declare, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth: say, Yahweh has redeemed his servant Jacob.
