This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

Yahweh promises help

Isa 42:14–17

14 I’ve been silent for a long time now.

≈ I’ve been still—I’ve restrained myself.

Now I’ll cry out like a woman giving birth.

I’ll puff and pant at the same time.

15 I’ll make the mountains and hills dry up

≈ and all their vegetation will wither.

plus I’ll turn the rivers into islands

≈ and dry up the pools.


16 I’ll lead the blind down a path that they don’t know.

≈ I’ll guide them on roads that they’re not familiar with.

I’ll make the dark places in front of them, light,

≈ and the rough places into level ground.

I’ll do those things for them, and I won’t abandon them.

17 Those who trust in idols will be turned back and totally humiliated—

those who tell a cast metal figure, ‘You’re our god.’
