45 This is what the Lord says to ^(A)Cyrus His anointed,
Whom I have taken by the right ^(B)hand,
To ^(C)subdue nations before him
And ^[a]to ^(D)undo the weapons belt on the waist of kings;
To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut:

² “I will go before you and ^(A)make the ^[a]rough places smooth;
I will ^(B)shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron ^(C)bars.
