A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
The verse 1 is found in chapter 48 of Isaiah. Israel knows Yahweh’s name but has been stubborn. God announces new things to demonstrate that he controls history and does not share his glory with idols. Deliverance from Babylon again appears as an opportunity to listen and obey, while the chapter ends by stating that the wicked have no true peace.

OUVI isto, casa de Jacó, que vos chamais do nome de Israel, e saístes das águas de Judá, que jurais pelo nome do SENHOR, e fazeis menção do Deus de Israel, mas não em verdade nem em justiça.
雅各 家,稱為 以色列 名下, 從 猶大 的源頭而出的啊, 你們指著耶和華的名起誓, 提說 以色列 的上帝, 卻不憑誠信,也不憑公義; 你們自稱為聖城之民, 倚靠名為萬軍之耶和華- 以色列 的上帝; 現在,當聽我言:
