The Lord’s Call to Israel

12 Listen to Me, O Jacob
    and Israel, whom I called:
I am He;
    I am the First, and I am the Last.
13 My hand also has laid the foundation of the earth,
    and My right hand has spanned the heavens;
when I call to them,
    they stand up together.

14 Assemble, all of you, and listen.
    Who among them has declared these things?
The Lord has loved him;
    he will do His pleasure on Babylon,
    and His arm shall be against the Chaldeans.
15 I, even I, have spoken,
    and I have called him;
I have brought him,
    and his way will prosper.

[a]He whom Jehovah loveth shall perform his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans. 15 I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him; I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
