The words “Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of the LORD!” and “I, even I, am he who comforts you”
여호와의 팔이여 깨소서 하는 말과 너희를 위로하는 자는 나여늘 하는 말씀
Isaiah 51:9–16: the text says, “Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of the LORD! Awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Isn’t it you who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster? Isn’t it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over? Those ransomed by the LORD will return, and come with singing to Zion. Everlasting joy shall be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy. Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” It goes on, “I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who will be made as grass? Have you forgotten the LORD your Maker, who stretched out the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth? Do you live in fear continually all day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he prepares to destroy? Where is the fury of the oppressor? The captive exile will speedily be freed. He will not die and go down into the pit. His bread won’t fail. For I am the LORD your God, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar. the LORD of Armies is his name. I have put my words in your mouth and have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and tell Zion, ‘You are my people.’” The Korean Revised Version opens 51:12 with 가라사대, a word of saying with no subject, which WEB does not have; it reads 51:9 as 라합을 저미시고 용을 찌르신이가 어찌 주가 아니시며, with 주, the Lord, where WEB reads “you”, and 용 where WEB reads “the monster”; and at 51:15 it reads 내 이름은 만군의 여호와니라, in the first person, where WEB reads “the LORD of Armies is his name”.
