name; thou art mine.
Isaiah 43:2
2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the
rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou
shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah 43:3
3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt
for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. Isaiah 43:4

loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.

thee from the west;

6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my
sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; Isaiah 43:7
7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my
glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. Isaiah 43:8
8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
Isaiah 43:9

It is truth.
Isaiah 43:10
10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, 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. Isaiah 43:11
11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. Isaiah 43:12

God.

Israel.

hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with
an offering, nor wearied thee with incense. Isaiah 43:24
24 Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me
with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins,
thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities. Isaiah 43:25

am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Isaiah 44:7

since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall
come, let them shew unto them. Isaiah 44:8

declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is
no God; I know not any.

after the figure of a man, according to the beauty  of a man;  that it may
remain  in the house.
Isaiah 44:14

and the rain doth nourish it.
Isaiah 44:15
15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm
himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and
worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down  thereto. Isaiah
44:16
16 He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he
roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha,  I
am warm,  I have seen  the fire: Isaiah 44:17

down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me;
for thou art my god.
Isaiah 44:18
18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they
cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand. Isaiah 44:19
19 And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor
understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have
baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted  flesh,  and eaten  it: and
shall I make  the residue  thereof an abomination?  shall I fall down to the
stock  of a tree?
Isaiah 44:20
20 He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot
deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand? Isaiah 44:21
21 Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant: I have formed
thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me.
Isaiah 44:22
22 I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud,
thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. Isaiah 44:23
23 Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the
earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree
therein: for the LORD  hath redeemed  Jacob,  and glorified  himself in Israel.
Isaiah 44:24
24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I
am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone;
that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; Isaiah 44:25
25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that
turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish; Isaiah 44:26
26 That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his
messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities
of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up  the decayed places thereof:
Isaiah 44:27
27 That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers: Isaiah 44:28

foundation shall be laid.

holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to
open  before  him the two leaved gates;  and the gates  shall not be shut;
Isaiah 45:2
2 I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in
pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: Isaiah 45:3
3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret
places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am
the God of Israel.
Isaiah 45:4
4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee
by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. Isaiah 45:5
5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded
thee, though thou hast not known me: Isaiah 45:6
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there
is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. Isaiah 45:7
7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the
LORD do all these things.
Isaiah 45:8
8 Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness:
let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness
spring up together;  I the LORD  have created  it. Isaiah 45:9
9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the
potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What
makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands? Isaiah 45:10
10 Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the
woman, What hast thou brought forth? Isaiah 45:11
11 Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things
to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
Isaiah 45:12

stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. Isaiah 45:13
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he
shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward,
saith the LORD of hosts.
Isaiah 45:14
14 Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of
the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be
thine: they shall come after thee; in chains  they shall come over,  and they
shall fall down  unto thee, they shall make supplication  unto thee, saying,
Surely God  is in thee; and there is none else, there is no  God. Isaiah 45:15
15 Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
Isaiah 45:16
16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to
confusion together that are makers of idols. Isaiah 45:17
17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye
shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end. Isaiah 45:18
18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed
the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he
formed it to be inhabited:  I am the LORD;  and there is none else. Isaiah
45:19
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto
the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I
declare  things that are right.
Isaiah 45:20
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the
nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and
pray unto a god that cannot save. Isaiah 45:21
21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath
declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I
the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God  and a Saviour;  there
is none  beside  me. Isaiah 45:22
22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and
there is none else.
Isaiah 45:23
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.
Isaiah 45:24
24 Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: even
to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
Isaiah 45:25
25 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
