Isaiah 45:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ I am the Lord. There is no other Lord.
    I am the one and only God.
You do not know anything about me.
    But I will make you strong.
⁶ Then people will know there is no God but me.
    Everyone from where the sun rises in the east
    to where it sets in the west will know it.
I am the Lord.
    There is no other Lord.
⁷ I cause light to shine. I also create darkness.
    I bring good times. I also create hard times.
    I do all these things. I am the Lord.
