4. "For the sake of Jacob My servant, And Israel My chosen one, I have also called you by your name; I have given you a title of honor Though you have not known Me.
5. "I am the Lord, and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God. I will gird you, though you have not known Me;
6. That men may know from the rising to the setting of the sun That there is no one besides Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other,
7. The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the Lord who does all these.
8. "Drip down, O heavens, from above, And let the clouds pour down righteousness; Let the earth open up and salvation bear fruit, And righteousness spring up with it. I, the Lord, have created it.
9. "Woe to the one who quarrels with his Maker- An earthenware vessel among the vessels of earth! Will the clay say to the potter, 'What are you doing?' Or the thing you are making say, 'He has no hands'?
10. "Woe to him who says to a father, 'What are you begetting?' Or to a woman, 'To what are you giving birth?'"
11. Thus says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: "Ask Me about the things to come concerning My sons, And you shall commit to Me the work of My hands.
