Isaiah 50:1-4 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. The Lord says, “Children,I didn't divorce your motheror sell you to pay debts;I divorced her and sold youbecause of your sins.

2. I came and called out,but you didn't answer.Have I lost my powerto rescue and save?At my command oceans and riversturn into deserts;fish rot and stinkfor lack of water.

3. I make the sky turn darklike the sackclothyou wear at funerals.”

4. The Lord God gives methe right wordsto encourage the weary.Each morning he awakens meeager to learn his teaching;
