11
I, even I, am the Lord, And besides Me there is no savior.
12
I have declared and saved, I have proclaimed, And there was no foreign god among you; Therefore you are My witnesses," Says the Lord, "that I am God.
13
Indeed before the day was, I am He; And there is no one who can deliver out of My hand; I work, and who will reverse it?"
14
Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: "For your sake I will send to Babylon, And bring them all down as fugitives-- The Chaldeans, who rejoice in their ships.
15
I am the Lord, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King."
16
Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters,
17
Who brings forth the chariot and horse, The army and the power (They shall lie down together, they shall not rise; They are extinguished, they are quenched like a wick):
18
"Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.
19
Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.
20
The beast of the field will honor Me, The jackals and the ostriches, Because I give waters in the wilderness And rivers in the desert, To give drink to My people, My chosen.
21
This people I have formed for Myself; They shall declare My praise.
