Isaiah 44:24-28
Names of God Bible
Through Cyrus the Lord Will Set Israel Free
24 Yahweh reclaimed you.
He formed you in the womb.
This is what Yahweh says:
I, Yahweh, made everything.
I stretched out the heavens by myself.
I spread out the earth all alone.
25 I cause the signs of false prophets to fail
and make fools of fortunetellers.
I make wise men retreat
and turn their knowledge into foolishness.
26 He confirms the word of his servant
and fulfills the plan of his messengers.
He says about Jerusalem, “It will be inhabited.”
He says about the cities of Judah, “They will be rebuilt.”
He says about their ruins, “I will restore them.”
27 He says to the deep water, “Dry up.”
So I will dry up your rivers.
28 He says about Cyrus, “He is my shepherd.
He will do everything I want him to do.”
He says about Jerusalem, “It will be rebuilt.”
He says about the temple, “Your foundation will be laid.”
