8 Lead out those who have eyes but are blind,

who have ears but are deaf.

9 All the nations gather together

and the peoples assemble.

Which of their gods foretold this

and proclaimed to us the former things?

Let them bring in their witnesses to prove they were right,

so that others may hear and say, “It is true.”

10 “You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,

“and my servant whom I have chosen,

so that you may know and believe me

and understand that I am he.

Before me no god was formed,

nor will there be one after me.

11 I, even I, am the Lord,

and apart from me there is no savior.

12 I have revealed and saved and proclaimed—

I, and not some foreign god among you.

You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God.

13 Yes, and from ancient days I am he.

No one can deliver out of my hand.

When I act, who can reverse it?”

8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes,

And the deaf that have ears.

9 Let all the nations be gathered together,

And let the people be assembled:

Who among them can declare this,

And shew us former things?

Let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified:

Or let them hear, and say, It is truth.

10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord,

And my servant whom I have chosen:

That ye may know and believe me,

And understand that I am he:

Before me there was no God formed,

Neither shall there be after me.

11 I, even I, am the Lord;

And beside me there is no saviour.

12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed,

When there was no strange god among you:

Therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God.

13 Yea, before the day was I am he;

And there is none that can deliver out of my hand:

I will work, and who shall let it?

8 Bring out the people who have eyes but are blind,

who have ears but are deaf.

9 Gather the nations together!

Assemble the peoples of the world!

Which of their idols has ever foretold such things?

Which can predict what will happen tomorrow?

Where are the witnesses of such predictions?

Who can verify that they spoke the truth?

10 “But you are my witnesses, O Israel!” says the Lord.

“You are my servant.

You have been chosen to know me, believe in me,

and understand that I alone am God.

There is no other God—

there never has been, and there never will be.

11 I, yes I, am the Lord,

and there is no other Savior.

12 First I predicted your rescue,

then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world.

No foreign god has ever done this.

You are witnesses that I am the only God,”

says the Lord.

13 “From eternity to eternity I am God.

No one can snatch anyone out of my hand.

No one can undo what I have done.”

8 Bring out the blind people who have eyes,

And the deaf who have ears.

9 Let all the nations be gathered together,

And let the people be assembled.

Who among them can declare this,

And show us former things?

Let them bring out their witnesses, that they may be justified;

Or let them hear and say, “It is truth.”

10 “You are My witnesses,” says the Lord,

“And My servant whom I have chosen,

That you may know and believe Me,

And understand that I am He.

Before Me there was no God formed,

Nor shall there be after Me.

11 I, even I, am the Lord,

And besides Me there is no savior.

12 I have declared and saved,

I have proclaimed,

And there was no foreign god among you;

Therefore you are My witnesses,”

Says the Lord, “that I am God.

13 Indeed before the day was, I am He;

And there is no one who can deliver out of My hand;

I work, and who will reverse it?”

8 Bring out the people who have eyes but don’t see

and those who have ears but don’t hear.

9 All the nations gather together,

and all the people come together.

Which of their gods said this would happen?

Which of their gods can tell what happened in the beginning?

Let them bring their witnesses to prove they were right.

Then others will say, “It is true.”

10 The Lord says, “You are my witnesses

and the servant I chose.

I chose you so you would know and believe me,

so you would understand that I am the true God.

There was no God before me,

and there will be no God after me.

11 I myself am the Lord;

I am the only Savior.

12 I myself have spoken to you, saved you, and told you these things.

It was not some foreign god among you.

You are my witnesses, and I am God,”

says the Lord.

13 “I have always been God.

No one can save people from my power;

when I do something, no one can change it.”

8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 10 Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 11 I, even I, am Jehovah; and besides me there is no saviour. 12 I have declared, and I have saved, and I have showed; and there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and I am God. 13 Yea, since the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who can hinder it?

8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled: who among them declareth this, or causeth us to hear former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 10 Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am HE: before me there was no •God formed, neither shall there be after me. 11 I, I am Jehovah; and besides me there is no saviour. 12 It is I that have declared, and have saved, and have shewed, when there was no strange god among you; and ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, that I am •God. 13 Yea, since the day was, I am HE, and there is none that delivereth out of my hand: I will work, and who shall hinder it?

8 Bring the people who are blind but still have eyes, 

the people who are deaf but still have ears. 

9 All nations have gathered together, and people have assembled. 

Who among them could have revealed this? 

Who among them could have foretold this to us? 

They should bring their witnesses to prove that they were right. 

Let the people hear them. Then they will say that it is true. 

10 “You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord. 

“I have chosen you as my servant 

so that you can know and believe in me 

and understand that I am the one ⸤who did this⸥. 

No god was formed before me, 

and there will be none after me. 

11 I alone am the Lord, 

and there is no savior except me. 

12 I have revealed it to you, I have saved you, 

and I have announced it to you. 

There was no foreign ⸤god⸥ among you. 

You are my witnesses that I am God,” declares the Lord. 

13 “From the ⸤first⸥ day I was the one ⸤who did this⸥. 

No one can rescue people from my power. 

When I do something, who can undo it?” 

8 Bring out a people who are blind, yet have eyes,

and are deaf, yet have ears.

9 All the nations are gathered together,

and the peoples are assembled.

Who among them can declare this,

and tell us the former things?

Let them present their witnesses

to vindicate themselves,

so that people may hear and say, “It is true.”

10 “You are My witnesses” —

this is the Lord’s declaration—

“and My servant whom I have chosen,

so that you may know and believe Me

and understand that I am He.

No god was formed before Me,

and there will be none after Me.

11 I, I am Yahweh,

and there is no other Savior but Me.

12 I alone declared, saved, and proclaimed—

and not some foreign god among you.

So you are My witnesses”—

this is the Lord’s declaration—

“and I am God.

13 Also, from today on I am He alone,

and none can deliver from My hand.

I act, and who can reverse it?”

8 Bring forth the people who are blind, yet have eyes,

who are deaf, yet have ears!

9 Let all the nations gather together,

and let the peoples assemble.

Who among them declared this,

and foretold to us the former things?

Let them bring their witnesses to justify them,

and let them hear and say, “It is true.”

10 You are my witnesses, says the Lord,

and my servant whom I have chosen,

so that you may know and believe me

and understand that I am he.

Before me no god was formed,

nor shall there be any after me.

11 I, I am the Lord,

and besides me there is no savior.

12 I declared and saved and proclaimed,

when there was no strange god among you;

and you are my witnesses, says the Lord.

13 I am God, and also henceforth I am He;

there is no one who can deliver from my hand;

I work and who can hinder it?

8 Bring out the people blind yet with eyes,

and deaf, though they have ears.

9 Let all the nations gather together,

and let the peoples assemble.

Who among them has declared this,

and declared the former things to us?

Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be in the right,

and let them hear and say, “It is true!”

10 “You are my witnesses,” declares Yahweh,

“and my servant whom I have chosen

so that you may know and believe in me

and understand that I am he.

No god was formed before me,

and none shall be after me.

11 I myself am Yahweh,

and there is no savior besides me!

12 I myself declared and saved,

and I proclaimed. And there was no strange god among you.

And you are my witnesses,” declares Yahweh,

“and I am God.

13 Indeed, from this day I am the one,

and no one can deliver from my hand.

I perform, and who can cancel it?”

8 Lead my people into court.

They have eyes but can’t see.

Bring those who have ears but can’t hear.

9 All of the nations are gathering together.

All of them are coming.

Which one of their gods said ahead of time

that the people of Israel would return?

Which of them told us anything at all about the past?

Let them bring in their witnesses to prove they were right.

Then others will hear them. And they will say,

“What they said is true.”

10 “People of Israel, you are my witnesses,” announces the Lord.

“I have chosen you to be my servants.

I wanted you to know me and believe in me.

I wanted you to understand that I am the one and only God.

Before me, there was no other god at all.

And there will not be any god after me.

11 I am the one and only Lord.

I am the only one who can save you.

12 I have made known what would happen.

I told you about it. And I saved you.

I did it. It was not some other god you worship.

You are my witnesses that I am God,” announces the Lord.

13 “And that is not all! I have always been God,

and I always will be.

No one can save people from my powerful hand.

When I do something, who can undo it?”

8 Bring out the people who are blind, even though they have eyes,

And the deaf, even though they have ears.

9 All the nations have gathered together

So that the peoples may be assembled.

Who among them can declare this

And proclaim to us the former things?

Let them present their witnesses that they may be justified,

Or let them hear and say, “It is true.”

10 “You are My witnesses,” declares the Lord,

“And My servant whom I have chosen,

So that you may know and believe Me

And understand that I am He.

Before Me there was no God formed,

And there will be none after Me.

11 “I, even I, am the Lord,

And there is no savior besides Me.

12 “It is I who have declared and saved and proclaimed,

And there was no strange god among you;

So you are My witnesses,” declares the Lord,

“And I am God.

13 “Even from eternity I am He,

And there is none who can deliver out of My hand;

I act and who can reverse it?”
