^26 (A)Who has declared from the beginning, that we may know?
And former times, that we may say, ‘He is righteous’?
Surely there is no one who shows,
Surely there is no one who declares,
Surely there is no one who hears your words.

⁷ And ^(A)who can proclaim as I do?
Then let him declare it and set it in order for Me,
Since I appointed the ancient people.
And the things that are coming and shall come,
Let them show these to them.

²² “Let^(A) them bring forth and show us what will happen;
Let them show the ^(B)former things, what they were,
That we may ^[a]consider them,
And know the latter end of them;
Or declare to us things to come.

²¹ Tell and bring forth your case;
Yes, let them take counsel together.
^(A)Who has declared this from ancient time?
Who has told it from that time?
Have not I, the Lord?
^(B)And there is no other God besides Me,
A just God and a Savior;
There is none besides Me.

⁹ Let all the nations be gathered together,
And let the people be assembled.
^(A)Who 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.”
