Isaiah 43:3–11

³For I am the Lord your God,

The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;

^fI gave Egypt for your ransom,

Ethiopia and Seba in your place.

⁴Since you were precious in My sight,

You have been honored,

And I have ^gloved you;

Therefore I will give men for you,

And people for your life.

^5hFear not, for I am with you;

I will bring your descendants from the east,

And ⁱgather you from the west;

⁶I will say to the ^jnorth, ‘Give them up!’

And to the south, ‘Do not keep them back!’

Bring My sons from afar,

And My daughters from the ends of the earth—

⁷Everyone who is ^kcalled by My name,

Whom ^lI have created for My glory;

I have formed him, yes, I have made him.”

^8mBring out the blind people who have eyes,

And the ⁿdeaf who have ears.

⁹Let all the nations be gathered together,

And let the people be assembled.

^oWho 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 ^pare My witnesses,” says the Lord,

^q“And My servant whom I have chosen,

That you may know and ^rbelieve Me,

And understand that I am He.

Before Me there was no God formed,

Nor shall there be after Me.

¹¹I, even I, ^sam the Lord,

And besides Me there is no savior.
