Who then is like me?(A) Let him proclaim it.
    Let him declare and lay out before me
what has happened since I established my ancient people,
    and what is yet to come—
    yes, let them foretell(B) what will come.
Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
    Did I not proclaim(C) this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God(D) besides me?
    No, there is no other Rock;(E) I know not one.”

Is there a God besides Me?
Indeed (D)there is no other Rock;
I know not one.’ ”
