Isaiah 50:3-5

New Century Version

³ I can make the skies dark;
    I can make them black like clothes of sadness.”

⁴ The Lord God gave me the ability to teach
    so that I know what to say to make the weak strong.
Every morning he wakes me.
    He teaches me to listen like a student.
⁵ The Lord God helps me learn,
    and I have not turned against him
    nor stopped following him.
