Isaiah 44:6-8

New International Version

The Lord, Not Idols

⁶“This is what the Lord says—
    Israel’s King^(A) and Redeemer,^(B) the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;^(C)
    apart from me there is no God.^(D)
⁷Who then is like me?^(E) Let him proclaim it.
    Let him declare and lay out before me
what has happened since I established my ancient people,
    and what is yet to come—
    yes, let them foretell^(F) what will come.
⁸Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
    Did I not proclaim^(G) this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God^(H) besides me?
    No, there is no other Rock;^(I) I know not one.”

New International Version

²¹“Remember^(A) these things, Jacob,
    for you, Israel, are my servant.^(B)
I have made you, you are my servant;^(C)
    Israel, I will not forget you.^(D)
²²I have swept away^(E) your offenses like a cloud,
    your sins like the morning mist.
Return^(F) to me,
    for I have redeemed^(G) you.”

²³Sing for joy,^(H) you heavens, for the Lord has done this;
    shout aloud, you earth^(I) beneath.
Burst into song, you mountains,^(J)
    you forests and all your trees,^(K)
for the Lord has redeemed^(L) Jacob,
    he displays his glory^(M) in Israel.
