Isaiah 51:8 in Context — Isaiah 51

6 Levantai vossos olhos aos céus, e olhai para a terra abaixo; porque os céus desaparecerão como fumaça, e a terra se envelhecerá como um vestido; e seus moradores semelhantemente morrerão; porém minha salvação durará para sempre, e minha justiça não será terminará.

7 Ouvi-me, vós que conheceis a justiça, vós povo em cujo coração está minha Lei; não temais a humilhação dos homens, nem vos perturbeis por seus insultos.

8 Porque a traça os roerá como um vestido; e o verme os comerá com a lã; mas minha justiça durará para sempre, e minha salvação geração após gerações.

9 Desperta-te! Desperta-te! Reveste-te de força, ó braço do SENHOR! Desperta-te como nos dias do passado, [como] nas gerações antigas; por acaso não és tu aquele que cortaste em pedaços a Raabe, que feriste ao dragão marinho?

10 Não és tu aquele que secaste o mar, as águas do grande abismo, e que fizeste o caminho das profundezas do mar, para que passassem os redimidos?
