Isaiah 45.23 |
kat emautou omnuw, ei
mh exeleusetai ek tou stomatoV mou dikaiosunh, oi logoi mou ouk apostrafhsontai:
ton qeon |
gagraptai gar: zw egw, legei kurioV, oti emoi kamyei pan gonu
|
By myself I swear, righteousness shall surely proceed out of my mouth; my words shall not be frustrated; that to me every knee shall bend, and every tongue shall swear by God |
For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, to me
every knee shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to God
|
By myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear |
Comments: This is Isaiah 45.24 in the LXX.
Brenton’s LXX text is based largely on Vaticanus. Codex Alexandrinus
has
exomologhsetai pasa glwssa
tw qew, differing only in word order from in the NT.
The MT differs, having “swear” in place of “confess.” |
