Isaiah 44:6-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
No God Other Than Yahweh
6 This is what the Lord, the King of Israel and its Redeemer,(A) the Lord of Hosts, says:
I am the first and I am the last.(B)
There is no God but Me.(C)
7 Who, like Me, can announce the future?
Let him say so and make a case before Me,(D)
since I have established an ancient people.
Let these gods declare[a] the coming things,
and what will take place.
8 Do not be startled or afraid.
Have I not told you and declared it long ago?
You are my witnesses!(E)
Is there any God but Me?(F)
There is no other Rock;(G) I do not know any.

Lexham English Bible
Yahweh the Only God
6 Thus says Yahweh, the king of Israel,
and its redeemer, Yahweh of hosts:
“I am the first, and I am the last,
and there is no god besides me.
7 And who is like me? Let him proclaim[a] it!
And let him declare it and set it in order for me
since I established an eternal people[b] and things that are to come,
and let them tell them the things that are coming.
8 You must not tremble,[c]
and you must not be paralyzed with fear.
Have I not made you hear from of old[d]
and declared it, and you are my witnesses?
Is there a god besides me?
And there is no rock! I know none!”
