Isaiah 44:6-8
English Standard Version
Besides Me There Is No God
6 Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel
and (A)his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
(B)“I am the first and I am the last;
besides me there is no god.
7 (C)Who is like me? Let him proclaim it.[a]
Let him declare and set it before me,
since I appointed an ancient people.
Let them declare what is to come, and what will happen.
8 Fear not, nor be afraid;
have I not told you from of old and declared it?
(D)And you are my witnesses!
(E)Is there a God besides me?
There is no (F)Rock; I know not any.”
