Isaiah 45:11-18

11For the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and its Maker says this, “Ask Me about the things to come concerning My sons, And give Me orders concerning the work of My hands.

12I made the earth and created man upon it. My hands, stretched out the heavens, And I commanded all their host.

13I have stirred up Cyrus and put him into action in righteousness [to accomplish My purpose] And I will make all his ways smooth; He will build My city and let My exiles go, Without any payment or reward,” says the Lord of hosts.

14For this is what the Lord says, “The products of Egypt and the merchandise of Cush (ancient Ethiopia) And the Sabeans, men of stature, Will come over to you and they will be yours; They will walk behind you, in chains [of subjection to you] they will come over, And they will bow down before you; They will make supplication to you, [humbly and earnestly] saying, ‘Most certainly God is with you, and there is no other, No other God [besides Him].’ ”

15Truly, You are a God who hides Himself, O God of Israel, Savior!

16They will be put to shame and also humiliated, all of them; They who make idols will go away together in humiliation.

17Israel has been saved by the Lord With an everlasting salvation; You will not be put to shame or humiliated for all eternity.

18For the Lord, who created the heavens (He is God, who formed the earth and made it; He established it and did not create it to be a wasteland, but formed it to be inhabited) says this, “I am the Lord, and there is no one else.
