Isaiah 43:15-17

Contemporary English Version

¹⁵ I am the Lord, your holy God,
    Israel's Creator and King.
¹⁶ I am the one who cut a path
    through the mighty ocean.
¹⁷ I sent an army to chase you
    with chariots and horses;
now they lie dead,
    unable to move.
They are like an oil lamp
    with the flame snuffed out.
