another will use the name of Jacob;
still another will write on his hand, “The Lord’s”,
and take on the name of Israel.’

No God Other Than the Lord

This is what the Lord, the King of Israel and its Redeemer,(A) the Lord of Armies, says:

I am the first and I am the last.(B)

and what will take place.
