21 Declare what is to be, present it—
    let them take counsel together.
Who foretold(A) this long ago,
    who declared it from the distant past?(B)
Was it not I, the Lord?
    And there is no God apart from me,(C)
a righteous God(D) and a Savior;(E)
    there is none but me.

22 “Turn(F) to me and be saved,(G)
    all you ends of the earth;(H)
    for I am God, and there is no other.(I)
23 By myself I have sworn,(J)
    my mouth has uttered in all integrity(K)
    a word that will not be revoked:(L)
Before me every knee will bow;(M)
    by me every tongue will swear.(N)

22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
