Isaiah 42:5

Context

42:5 This is what the true God, 1  the Lord, says –

the one who created the sky and stretched it out,

the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it, 2 

the one who gives breath to the people on it,

and life to those who live on it: 3 

1 tn Heb “the God.” The definite article here indicates distinctiveness or uniqueness.

2 tn Heb “and its offspring” (so NASB); NIV “all that comes out of it.”

3 tn Heb “and spirit [i.e., “breath”] to the ones walking in it” (NAB, NASB, and NRSV all similar).
