Isaiah 45:21-25

English Standard Version

²¹^(A)Declare and present your case;
    let them take counsel together!
Who told this long ago?
    Who declared it of old?
Was it not I, the Lord?
    And there is no other god besides me,
a righteous God ^(B)and a Savior;
    there is none besides me.

²²“Turn to me and be saved,
    ^(C)all the ends of the earth!
    For I am God, and there is no other.
²³^(D)By myself I have sworn;
    from my mouth has gone out in ^(E)righteousness
    a word that shall not return:
^(F)‘To me every knee shall bow,
    every tongue shall swear allegiance.’^[a]

²⁴^(G)“Only in the Lord, it shall be said of me,
    are righteousness and ^(H)strength;
to him shall come and be ashamed
    ^(I)all who were incensed against him.
²⁵In the Lord all the offspring of Israel
    shall be justified and shall glory.”
