Isaiah 45:17-19
New International Version
17 But Israel will be saved(A) by the Lord
with an everlasting salvation;(B)
you will never be put to shame or disgraced,(C)
to ages everlasting.
18 For this is what the Lord says—
he who created the heavens,
he is God;
he who fashioned and made the earth,(D)
he founded it;
he did not create it to be empty,(E)
but formed it to be inhabited(F)—
he says:
“I am the Lord,
and there is no other.(G)
19 I have not spoken in secret,(H)
from somewhere in a land of darkness;(I)
I have not said to Jacob’s descendants,(J)
‘Seek(K) me in vain.’
I, the Lord, speak the truth;
I declare what is right.(L)
Isaiah 45:17-19
King James Version
17 But Israel shall be saved in the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
18 For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord; and there is none else.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
