God calleth Cyrus for his Church's sake.1 ¶ Thus² saithºª the LORDº to his anointed,º to Cyrus,º whose² right handº I have holden,ºª to subdueºª nationsº beforeº him; and I will looseºª the loinsº of kings,º to openºª beforeº him the two leaved gates;º and the gatesº shall not² be shut;ºª 2 I² will go¹ª² beforeº thee, and make¹ª the crooked places¹ª straight:ºªªª² I will break in piecesºª the gatesº of brass,º and cut in sunderºª the barsº of iron:º 3 And I will giveºª thee the treasuresº of darkness,º and hidden richesº of secret places,º that² thou mayest knowºª that² I,² the LORD,º which callºª [thee] by thy name,º [am] the Godº of Israel.º 4 For Jacobº my servant's¹ sake,²² and Israelº mine elect,º I have even calledºª thee by thy name:º I have surnamedºª thee, though thou hast not² knownºª me.
