12 “Listen to me, O Jacob,
    and Israel my called:
I am he.
    I am the first.
    I am also the last.
13 Yes, my hand has laid the foundation of the earth,
    and my right hand has spread out the heavens.
    when I call to them, they stand up together.

14 “Assemble yourselves, all of you, and hear!
    Who among them has declared these things?
He whom Yahweh loves will do what he likes to Babylon,
    and his arm will be against the Chaldeans.
15 I, even I, have spoken.
    Yes, I have called him.
I have brought him
    and he shall make his way prosperous.

When I (D)call to them, they stand together.

And His arm will be against the Chaldeans.

I have brought him, and He will make his ways successful.
