3For Yahweh says, “You were sold for nothing;
and you will be redeemed without money.”
4For thus says the Lord Yahweh:
“My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there:
and the Assyrian has oppressed them without cause.
5“Now therefore, what do I do here,” says Yahweh,
“seeing that my people are taken away for nothing?
Those who rule over them mock,” says Yahweh,
“and my name is blasphemed continually all day long.
6Therefore my people shall know my name.
Therefore they shall know in that day that I am he who speaks.
Behold, it is I.”
