Isaiah 45:18-19

English Standard Version

^18 (A)For thus says the Lord,
who created the heavens
    (he is God!),
who formed the earth and made it
    (he established it;
he ^(B)did not create it empty,
    ^(C)he formed it to be inhabited!):
“I am the Lord, and there is no other.
^19 (D)I did not speak in secret,
    in a land of darkness;
I did not say to the offspring of Jacob,
    ^(E)‘Seek me in vain.’^[a]
I the Lord speak ^(F)the truth;
    I declare what is right.
