Isaiah 50:2
“Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there 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 there is no water, and dieth for thirst.”

King James Version (KJV)English
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there 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 there is no water, and dieth for thirst.
American Standard Version (ASV)English
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there 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 stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
Open English Bible (OEB)English
Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
Warum bin ich gekommen, und kein Mensch war da? Habe gerufen, und niemand antwortete? Ist meine Hand etwa zu kurz zur Erlösung? Oder ist in mir keine Kraft, um zu erretten? Siehe, durch mein Schelten trockne ich das Meer aus, mache Ströme zu einer Wüste: es stinken ihre Fische, weil kein Wasser da ist, und sie sterben vor Durst.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
Porque vine, y nadie pareció; llamé, y nadie respondió. ¿Ha llegado á acortarse mi mano, para no redimir? ¿no hay en mí poder para librar? He aquí que con mi reprensión hago secar la mar; torno los ríos en desierto, hasta pudrirse sus peces, y morirse de sed por falta de agua.
Bíblia Livre (BL)Português
Por que razão quando eu vim ninguém apareceu? Chamei, e ninguém respondeu. Por acaso minha mão se encurtou tanto, que já não posso resgatar? Ou não há mais poder em mim para livrar? Eis que com minha repreensão faço secar o mar, torno os rios em deserto, até federem seus peixes por não haver água, e morrem de sede.
Nova Versão (NVA)Português
Por que ninguém estava lá quando Eu cheguei? Por que ninguém respondeu quando Eu chamei? Era Minha mão muito curta para vos redimir? Não havia poder em Mim para vos resgatar? Vede, na Minha repreensão, Eu sequei o mar; Eu transformo os rios em um deserto; os peixes morrem por falta de água e apodrecem.
📖 Isaiah 50:2 in Context

2Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there 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 there is 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 him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
