Why does it have strange spelling?
CHAP. XLV.
1 God calleth Cyrus for his Churches sake. 5 By his omnipotencie he challengeth obedience. 20 Hee conuinceth the idoles of vanitie, by his sauing power.
1 Thus saith the Lord to his Anointed, to Cyrus whose right hande I haue holden, to subdue nations before him: and I will loose the loines of kings to open before him the two leaued gates, and the gates shall not be shut.1
5 ¶ I am the Lord, and there is none els, there is no God besides me: I girded thee, though thou hast not knowen me:5
9 Woe vnto him that striueth with his maker: Let the potsheard striue with the potsheards of the earth: shal the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy worke, he hath no hands?9
13 I haue raised him vp in righteousnesse, and I will direct all his wayes: he shall build my citie, and hee shall let goe my captiues, not for price nor reward, saith the Lord of hosts.13
15 Uerely thou art a God that hidest thy selfe, O God of Israel the Sauiour.
16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded all of them: they shall goe to confusion together that are makers of idoles.16
19 I haue not spoken in secret, in a darke place of the earth: I said not vnto the seed of Iacob, Seeke ye mee in vaine: I the Lord speake righteousnesse, I declare things that are right.19
22 Looke vnto mee, and be ye saued all the endes of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
23 I haue sworne by my selfe: the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousnes, and shall not returne, that vnto me euery knee shall bowe, euery tongue shall sweare.23
24 Surely, shall one say, In the Lord haue I righteousnesse and strength: euen to him shall men come, and all that are incensed against him, shalbe ashamed.24
25 In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be iustified, and shall glory.
