+ | Why would he say that he has not spoken in secret? Isaiah 45:19 talks about it, too. I also like Isaiah 45:14. In an assembly of the people, the many voices, the Lord is among them. He does not use mysticism and speak in dark corners. | ||

+ | |||
+ | - **Hearken and hear** this, O house of Jacob, **who** are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, **or out of the waters of baptism, who** swear by the name of the **Lord,** and make mention of the God of Israel, **yet they swear** not in **truth** nor in righteousness. | ||
+ | - **Nevertheless,** they call themselves of the holy city, **but they do not** stay themselves upon the God of **Israel, who is the Lord** of **Hosts; yea, the Lord of Hosts** is his name. | ||
+ | - **Behold,** I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I **showed them.** I did **show** them **suddenly.** | ||
+ | - **And I did it because** I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass; | ||
+ | - **And** I have even from the beginning declared to thee; before it came to pass I **showed them thee; and I showed them for fear** lest thou **shouldst say--Mine** idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten **image** hath commanded them. | ||
+ | - Thou hast **seen and heard** all this; and will ye **not** declare **them? And that** I have **showed** thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them. | ||
+ | - They are created now, and not from the **beginning,** even before the day when thou heardest them **not they were declared unto thee,** lest thou **shouldst say--Behold** I knew them. | ||
+ | - Yea, **and** thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time thine ear was not **opened;** for I knew that thou **wouldst** deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb. | ||
+ | - **Nevertheless, for** my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain **from** thee, that I cut thee not off. | ||
+ | - **For, behold,** I have refined thee, I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. | ||
+ | - For mine own sake, **yea,** for mine own **sake** will I do **this,** for **I will not suffer** my name **to** be **polluted,** and I will not give my glory unto another. | ||
+ | - Hearken unto me, O **Jacob,** and **Israel** my **called, for** I am he; I am the first, **and** I am **also** the last. | ||
+ | - Mine hand hath **also** laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the **heavens.** I call unto **them and** they stand up together. | ||
+ | - All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; **who** among them hath declared these **things unto them?** The **Lord** hath loved **him; yea, and he will fulfil his word which he hath declared by them; and** he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall **come upon** the Chaldeans. | ||
+ | - **Also, saith the Lord; I the Lord, yea, I** have spoken; yea, I have called **him to declare,** I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. | ||
+ | - Come ye near unto **me;** I have not spoken in **secret;** from the **beginning,** from the time that it **was declared have I spoken;** and the Lord **God,** and his Spirit, hath sent me. | ||
+ | - **And thus** saith the **Lord,** thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I **have sent him,** the **Lord** thy God **who** teacheth thee to profit, **who** leadeth thee by the way thou **shouldst go, hath done it.** | ||
+ | - O that thou hadst hearkened to my **commandments--then** had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the **sea.** | ||
+ | - Thy seed also had been as the **sand;** the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me. | ||
+ | - Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter to the end of the earth; say **ye:** The **Lord** hath redeemed his servant Jacob. | ||
+ | - And they thirsted **not;** he led them through the **deserts;** he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for **them;** he clave the rock **also** and the waters gushed out. | ||
+ | - **And notwithstanding he hath done all this, and greater also, there** is no peace, saith the **Lord,** unto the wicked. |
