Isaiah 44:28-45:5

²⁸who says of Cyrus,

‘My shepherd will fulfill all that I desire,’

who says of Jerusalem,

‘She will be rebuilt,’

and of the temple,

‘Let its foundation be laid.’”

¹This is what the LORD says to Cyrus His anointed,

whose right hand I have grasped

to subdue nations before him,

to disarm kings,

to open the doors before him,

so that the gates will not be shut:

²“I will go before you

and level the mountains;

I will break down the gates of bronze

and cut through the bars of iron.

³I will give you the treasures of darkness

and the riches hidden in secret places,

so that you may know that I am the LORD,

the God of Israel, who calls you by name.

⁴For the sake of Jacob My servant

and Israel My chosen one,

I call you by name;

I have given you a title of honor,

though you have not known Me.

⁵I am the LORD, and there is no other;

there is no God but Me.

I will equip you for battle,

though you have not known Me,

— Isaiah 44:28-45:5
