-"Why was there ^(C1)no one when I came? When I called, why was there no one to answer? Is My ^(C2)hand so short that it cannot redeem? Or do I have no power to rescue? Behold, I ^(C3)dry up the sea with My rebuke, I ^(C4)turn rivers into a wilderness; Their fish stink for lack of water, And die of thirst.

-"I ^(C1)clothe the heavens with blackness, And make sackcloth their covering."

The Lord ^(F1)GOD has given Me the tongue of ^(C1)disciples, So that I may know how to ^(C2)sustain the weary one with a word. He awakens Me ^(C3)morning by morning, He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.

The Lord GOD has ^(C1)opened My ear, And I was ^(C2)not disobedient, Nor did I turn back.

I ^(C1)gave My back to those who strike Me, And My cheeks to those who pull out My beard; I did not hide My face from insults and spitting.
