40:27
Lamah tomar Yaakov utedaber Yisrael nisterah darki me'HASHEM ume'Elokai mishpati ya'avor.
Why do you say, O Yaakov, and declare, - O Yisrael, - 'My way is hidden from HASHEM, and my cause has passed by my G-d?
Did you not know? Did you not hear? HASHEM is the eternal G-d, the Creator of the ends of the earth; He does not weary, He does not tire; there is no calculating His understanding.
He gives strength to the weary, and grants abundant might to the powerless.
Youths may weary and tire and young men may constantly falter,
but those whose hope is in HASHEM will have renewed strength; they will grow wings like eagles; they will run and not grow tired, they will walk and not grow weary.
41:1
Hacharishu elai iyim ule'umim yachalifu choach yigshu az yedaberu yachdav lamishpat nikravah.
Be silent to [hear] Me, O islands, and let regimes renew strength. Let them approach, then let them speak; together let us approach for judgment.
Who inspired [the one] from the east, at whose [every] footstep righteousness attended? [Who] delivered nations him, and subdued kings [before him]? [Who] made [his enemies] like dust [before] his sword; like straw blown about [before] his bow?
He pursued them and emerged unhurt, on a path where his feet had never gone.
Who brought about and accomplished [this]? He Who proclaimed the generations from the beginning: I, HASHEM, am the first, and I am He Who will be with the last [generations].
The islands saw and feared, the ends of the earth shuddered; they approached and came.
Each man would help his fellow [worship idols] and to his brother he would say 'Be strong!'
The woodworker would encourage the goldsmith, the finishing hammerer [would encourage] the one who pounds from the start; he would say of the glue, 'This is good,' and he would strengthen it with nails so that it should not loosen.
But you, O Yisrael, My servant, Yaakov, you whom I have chosen, offspring of Avraham who loved Me -
you whom I shall grasp from the ends of the earth and shall summon from among all its nobelmen, and to whom I shall say, 'You are my servant' - I have chosen you and not rejected you.
Fear not for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your G-d. I have strengthen you, even helped you, and even sustained you with My righteous right hand.
Behold, all who become angry with you will be shamed and humiliated; those who fight with you shall be like nothingness and shall perish.
The men who struggle with you, you shall seek them but not find them; the men who fight you, they shall be like nothingness and naught.
For I am HASHEM, your G-d, Who grasps your right hand, Who says to you: 'Fear not, [for] I help you!'
Fear not, O worm of Yaakov, O men of Yisrael, [for] I help you - the word of HASHEM and your Redeemer, the Holy One of Yisrael.
Behold, I have made you like a new, sharp threshing iron with many blades; you will thresh and pulverize mountains, and you will make the hills like chaff.
You will winnow them and the wind will carry them off, a storm will scatter them - but you will rejoice in HASHEM; in the Holy One of Yisra'el you will glory!
