Israel Is God’s Witness

Bring out the people who are (A)blind, even though they have eyes,
And those who are deaf, even though they have ears.
All the nations have (B)gathered together
So that the peoples may be assembled.
Who among them can (C)declare this
And proclaim to us the former things?
Let them present (D)their witnesses so (E)that they may be justified,
Or let them hear and say, “It is true.”
10 “You are (F)My witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“And (G)My servant whom I have chosen,
So that you may know and believe Me
And understand that (H)I am He.
(I)Before Me there was no God formed,
And there will be none after Me.
11 I, only I, am the Lord,
And there is no (J)savior (K)besides Me.
12 It is I who have declared and saved and proclaimed,
And there was no (L)strange god among you;
So you are My witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“And I am God.
13 Even [a](M)from eternity (N)I am He,
And there is (O)no one who can rescue from My hand;
(P)I act, and who can reverse it?”

  1. Isaiah 43:13 As in LXX; MT from the day

Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. [a]Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; [b]or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 10 Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 11 I, even I, am Jehovah; and besides me there is no saviour. 12 I have declared, and I have saved, and I have showed; and there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and I am God. 13 Yea, [c]since the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who can hinder it?
