Isaiah 50:4KJV

Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 4 of 11

"The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned."
Isaiah 50:4

In context

2Wherefore, when I came, no man? when I called, none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because no water, and dieth for thirst.

3I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.

4The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

5The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.

6I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
