Isaiah 43:3–11

³For I am Yahweh, your God,

the holy one of Israel, your savior.

I give you Egypt as ransom,

Cush and Seba in place of you.

⁴Because you are precious in my eyes,

you are honored, and I myself love you,

and I give people in place of you,

and nations in place of your life.

⁵You must not fear,

for I am with you.

I will bring your offspring^c from the east,

and I will gather you from the west.

⁶I will say to the north, ‘Give!’

and to the south, ‘You must not withhold!’

Bring my sons from far away,

and my daughters from the end of the earth—

⁷everyone who is called by my name,

and whom I created for my glory,

whom I formed,

indeed whom I made.”

⁸Bring out the people blind yet^d with eyes,

and deaf, though^e they have ears.

⁹Let all the nations gather together,

and let the peoples assemble.

Who among them has declared this,

and declared^f the former things to us?

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

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

¹⁰“You are my witnesses,” declaresⁱ Yahweh,

“and my servant whom I have chosen

so that you may know and believe in^j me

and understand that I am he.

No god was formed before me^k,

and none shall be after me.

¹¹I myself am Yahweh,

and there is no savior besides me!
