20 “Come, gather together,

and approach, you fugitives of the nations.

Those who carry their wooden idols

and pray to a god who cannot saved

have no knowledge.e

21 Speak up and present your caseA,f—

yes, let them consult each other.

Who predicted this long ago?

Who announced it from ancient times?

Was it not I, the Lord?

There is no other God but me,

a righteous God and Savior;g

there is no one except me.h

22 Turn to me and be saved,

all the ends of the earth.

For I am God,

and there is no other.
