11 The Lord, the Holy of Israel, the former thereof, saith these things, Ask ye (of) me (of) things to coming on my sons, and send ye to me on the works of mine hands. (The Lord, the Holy One of Israel, his Maker, saith these things, Ye question me about my sons and daughters? ye instruct me upon the works of my hands?)

12 I made (the) earth, and I made a man on it; mine hands held abroad (the) heavens, and I commanded to all the knighthood of them. (I made the earth, and I made the people on it; my hands spread abroad the heavens, and I commanded to all their host.)

13 I raised him to rightfulness, and I shall (ad)dress all his ways; he shall build (again) my city, and he shall deliver my prisoners, not in price, neither in gifts, saith the Lord of hosts. (I raised him up unto righteousness, and I shall direct all his ways; and he shall rebuild my city, and he shall rescue my prisoners, and not for price, and neither for gifts, saith the Lord of hosts.)

11 “This is what the Lord says—
    the Holy One(A) of Israel, and its Maker:(B)
Concerning things to come,
    do you question me about my children,
    or give me orders about the work of my hands?(C)
12 It is I who made the earth(D)
    and created mankind on it.
My own hands stretched out the heavens;(E)
    I marshaled their starry hosts.(F)
13 I will raise up Cyrus[a](G) in my righteousness:
    I will make all his ways straight.(H)
He will rebuild my city(I)
    and set my exiles free,
but not for a price or reward,(J)
    says the Lord Almighty.”
