(A) I chose you to bring justice,
    and I am here at your side.
I selected you and sent you[a]
    to bring light
and my promise of hope
    to the nations.
You will give sight
    to the blind;
you will set prisoners free
    from dark dungeons.

My name is the Lord!
I won't let idols or humans
    share my glory and praise.
