Yesaya 42:5
Konteks42:5 This is what the true God, 1 the Lord, says –
the one who created the sky and stretched it out,
the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it, 2
the one who gives breath to the people on it,
and life to those who live on it: 3
Yesaya 51:5
Konteks51:5 I am ready to vindicate, 4
I am ready to deliver, 5
I will establish justice among the nations. 6
The coastlands 7 wait patiently for me;
they wait in anticipation for the revelation of my power. 8
