Isaiah 45:5–7

5 I am the Lord, and there is no other;l

apart from me there is no God.m

I will strengthen you,n

though you have not acknowledged me,

6 so that from the rising of the sun

to the place of its settingo

people may knowp there is none besides me.q

I am the Lord, and there is no other.

7 I form the light and create darkness,r

I bring prosperity and create disaster;s

I, the Lord, do all these things.
