10. Woe to him who says to his father, ‘What are you begetting?’Or to the woman, ‘What have you brought forth?’ ”
11. Thus says the Lord,The Holy One of Israel, and his Maker:“Ask Me of things to come concerning My sons;And concerning the work of My hands, you command Me.
12. I have made the earth,And created man on it.I—My hands—stretched out the heavens,And all their host I have commanded.
13. I have raised him up in righteousness,And I will direct all his ways;He shall build My cityAnd let My exiles go free,Not for price nor reward,”Says the Lord of hosts.
14. Thus says the Lord:“The labor of Egypt and merchandise of CushAnd of the Sabeans, men of stature,Shall come over to you, and they shall be yours;They shall walk behind you,They shall come over in chains;And they shall bow down to you.They will make supplication to you, saying, ‘Surely God is in you,And there is no other;There is no other God.’ ”
15. Truly You are God, who hide Yourself,O God of Israel, the Savior!
16. They shall be ashamedAnd also disgraced, all of them;They shall go in confusion together,Who are makers of idols.
17. But Israel shall be saved by the LordWith an everlasting salvation;You shall not be ashamed or disgracedForever and ever.
