Isaiah 44:26-28

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²⁶ who confirms the word of his servant,
    and fulfils the prediction of his messengers;
who says of Jerusalem, ‘It shall be inhabited’,
    and of the cities of Judah, ‘They shall be rebuilt,
    and I will raise up their ruins’;
²⁷ who says to the deep, ‘Be dry—
    I will dry up your rivers’;
²⁸ who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd,
    and he shall carry out all my purpose’;
and who says of Jerusalem, ‘It shall be rebuilt’,
    and of the temple, ‘Your foundation shall be laid.’
