I am the Lord, and there is no other besides me:
    and there are no gods.[a]
I’m strengthening you,
    although you have not acknowledged me,
so that from the sun’s rising[b] to the west
    people may know that there is none besides me.

“I am the Lord, and there is no other.”

God is Sovereign

“I form light and create darkness,
I make goodness[c] and create disaster.
    I am the Lord, who does all these things.
