Isaiah 45:21-25

Contemporary English Version

²¹“Why don't you get together
    and meet me in court?
Didn't I tell you long ago
    what would happen?
I am the only God!
    There are no others.
I bring about justice,
    and have the power to save.

²²“I invite the whole world
    to turn to me and be saved.
I alone am God!
    No others are real.
²³^(A) I have made a solemn promise,
    one that won't be broken:
Everyone will bow down
    and worship me.
²⁴They will admit that I alone
    can bring about justice.
Everyone who is angry with me
will be terribly ashamed
    and will turn to me.
²⁵I, the Lord, will give
victory and great honor
    to the people of Israel.”
