Isaiah 43:8-13
Legacy Standard Bible
Israel Is Yahweh’s Witness
8 Bring out the people who are (A)blind, even though they have eyes,
And the deaf, even though they have ears.
9 All the nations have (B)gathered together
So that the peoples may be assembled.
Who among them can (C)declare this
And make us hear the former things?
Let them present (D)their witnesses (E)that they may be justified,
Or let them hear and say, “It is true.”
10 “You are (F)My witnesses,” declares Yahweh,
“And (G)My servant whom I have chosen,
So that you may know and believe Me
And understand that (H)I am He.
(I)Before Me there was no god formed,
And there will be none after Me.
11 I, even I, am Yahweh,
And there is no (J)savior (K)besides Me.
12 It is I who have declared and saved and caused it to be heard,
And there was no (L)strange god among you;
So you are My witnesses,” declares Yahweh,
“And I am God.
13 Even [a](M)from eternity (N)I am He,
And there is (O)none who can deliver out of My hand;
(P)I act and who can reverse it?”

Isaiah 43:8-13
Common English Bible
8 Bring out the blind people who have eyes,
the deaf ones who have ears.
9 All the nations are gathered together;
the peoples are assembled.
Which of them announced this?
Who predicted to us the past events?
Let them bring their witnesses as a defense;
let them hear and say, “It’s true!”
10 You are my witnesses, says the Lord,
my servant, whom I chose,
so that you would know and believe me
and understand that I am the one.
Before me no god was formed;
after me there has been no other.
11 I, I am the Lord,
and there is no savior besides me.
12 I announced, I saved, I proclaimed,
not some stranger among you.
You are my witnesses, says the Lord,
and I am God.
13 From the dawn of time, I am the one.
No one can escape my power.
I act, and who can undo it?
