“who confirms the word of his servant,and performs the counsel of his messengers;who says of Jerusalem, ‘She will be inhabited;’and of the cities of Judah, ‘They will be built,’and ‘I will raise up its waste places;’”

Context Reading
24Yahweh, your Redeemer,and he who formed you from the womb says:“I am Yahweh, who makes all things;who alone stretches out the heavens;who spreads out the earth by myself; 25who frustrates the signs of the liars,and makes diviners mad;who turns wise men backward,and makes their knowledge foolish; 26who confirms the word of his servant,and performs the counsel of his messengers;who says of Jerusalem, ‘She will be inhabited;’and of the cities of Judah, ‘They will be built,’and ‘I will raise up its waste places;’ 27who says to the deep, ‘Be dry,’and ‘I will dry up your rivers,’ 28who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure,’even saying of Jerusalem, ‘She will be built;’and of the temple, ‘Your foundation will be laid.’”
