Isaiah 45:2 in context

  1. 1Yahweh says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held, to subdue nations before him, and strip kings of their armor; to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:
  2. 2“I will go before you
    and make the rough places smooth.
    I will break the doors of bronze in pieces
    and cut apart the bars of iron.
  3. 3I will give you the treasures of darkness
    and hidden riches of secret places,
    that you may know that it is I, Yahweh, who call you by your name,
    even the God of Israel.
  4. 4For Jacob my servant’s sake,
    and Israel my chosen,
    I have called you by your name.
    I have given you a title,
    though you have not known me.
