NET Bible
"The one who vindicates me is close by. Who dares to argue with me? Let us confront each other! Who is my accuser? Let him challenge me!"
— Isaiah 50:8, NET Bible
“He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.”
“He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. ”
“He is near who justifies me; who will bring charges against me? Let us stand up together: who is my adversary? Let him come near to me.”
“He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me? let us stand together, who is my adversary? let him come near to me.”
“He who takes up my cause is near; who will go to law with me? let us come together before the judge: who is against me? let him come near to me.”
“He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.”
The Sovereign LORD has spoken to me clearly; I have not rebelled, I have not turned back.
I offered my back to those who attacked, my jaws to those who tore out my beard; I did not hide my face from insults and spitting.
But the Sovereign LORD helps me, so I am not humiliated. For that reason I am steadfastly resolved; I know I will not be put to shame.
The one who vindicates me is close by. Who dares to argue with me? Let us confront each other! Who is my accuser? Let him challenge me!
Look, the Sovereign LORD helps me. Who dares to condemn me? Look, all of them will wear out like clothes; a moth will eat away at them.
Who among you fears the LORD? Who obeys his servant? Whoever walks in deep darkness, without light, should trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God.
Look, all of you who start a fire and who equip yourselves with flaming arrows, walk in the light of the fire you started and among the flaming arrows you ignited! This is what you will receive from me: you will lie down in a place of pain.
