14. This is what the Lord says:The products from Egypt, the merchandise from Sudan,and the important Sabaeans will come to you.They will belong to you.They will follow you.They will come to you in chains.They will bow to you and pray to you,“Certainly God is with you alone, and there is no other God.”
15. Certainly, you are a God who has hidden himself.You are the God of Israel, the Savior!
16. Those who make idols will be ashamed and disgraced.They will go away completely disgraced.
17. Israel has been saved by the Lord forever.You will never again be ashamed or disgraced.
18. The Lord created the heavens.God formed the earth and made it.He set it up.He did not create it to be emptybut formed it to be inhabited.This is what the Lord says:I am the Lord, and there is no other.
19. I haven’t spoken privately or in some dark corner of the world.I didn’t say to Jacob’s descendants,“Search for me in vain!”I, the Lord, speak what is fair and say what is right.
20. Come here, you refugees from the nations.Ignorant people carry wooden idolsand pray to gods that cannot save ⌊anyone⌋.
21. Speak and present your case. Yes, let them consult one another.Who revealed this in the distant past and predicted it long ago?Wasn’t it I, the Lord?There is no other God except me.There is no other righteous God and Savior besides me.
