Isaiah 45:20–25

20 “Come, gather together,

and draw near, you fugitives of the nations.

Those who carry their wooden idols,

and pray to a god who cannot save, x

have no knowledge. y

21 Speak up and present your case z a—

yes, let them take counsel together.

Who predicted this long ago?

Who announced it from ancient times?

Was it not I, Yahweh?

There is no other God but Me,

a righteous God and Savior; b

there is no one except Me. c

22 Turn to Me and be saved,

all the ends of the earth.

For I am God,

and there is no other.

23 By Myself I have sworn; d

Truth has gone from My mouth, e

a word that will not be revoked:

Every knee will bow f to Me,

every tongue will swear allegiance.

24 It will be said to Me: Righteousness and strength

is only in the Lord.”

All who are enraged against Him

will come to Him and be put to shame. g

25 All the descendants of Israel

will be justified and find glory through the Lord.
