Isaiah 45:11-18

11ThusH3541 saysH559 the LORDH3068, the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478, and its MakerH3335:

“Concerning things to comeH857, do you question MeH7592 aboutH5921 My sonsH1121,or instruct MeH6680 inH5921 the workH6467 of My handsH3027?12It is IH595 who madeH6213 the earthH776and createdH1254 H589 manH120 upon itH5921.It was My handsH3027 that stretched outH5186 the heavensH8064,and I ordainedH6680 allH3605 their hostH6635.13IH595 will raise upH5782 Cyrus in righteousnessH6664,and I will makeH3474 allH3605 his waysH1870 straight.HeH1931 will rebuildH1129 My cityH5892and set My exilesH1546 freeH7971,but notH3808 for paymentH4242 or rewardH7810,saysH559 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635.”

14This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

“The productsH3018 of EgyptH4714 and the merchandiseH5504 of CushH3568,1along with the SabeansH5436, menH582 of statureH4060,will come overH5674 to youH5921and will beH1961 yours;they will trudge behindH310 youH1980;they will come overH5674 in chainsH2131 and bow downH7812 to youH413.They will confessH6419 to youH413:‘GodH410 is indeedH389 with you, and there is noH369 otherH5750;there is noH657 other GodH430.’”

15TrulyH403 YouH859 are a GodH410 who hides HimselfH5641,O GodH430 of IsraelH3478, the SaviorH3467.16They will allH3605 be put to shameH954 andH1571 humiliatedH3637;the makersH2796 of idolsH6736 will departH1980 togetherH3162 in disgraceH3639.17But IsraelH3478 will be savedH3467 by the LORDH3068with an everlastingH5769 salvationH8668;you will notH3808 be put to shameH954 H3808 or humiliatedH3637,toH5704 agesH5769 everlastingH5703.

18ForH3588 thusH3541 saysH559 the LORDH3068,who createdH1254 the heavensH8064—HeH1931 is GodH430;He formedH3335 the earthH776 and fashioned itH6213;HeH1931 established itH3559;He did notH3808 createH1254 it to be emptyH8414,but formedH3335 it to be inhabitedH3427:

“IH589 am the LORDH3068,and there is noH369 otherH5750.
